WHEELING - It was not lost on those who gathered Friday evening in the basement of West Virginia Independence Hall to gauge interest in a Wheeling production of a play about slavery, civil rights and West Virginia statehood that much of the real-life drama its script recalls unfolded just a few floors above their heads.
Organizers of the J.R. Clifford Project have presented the play, "A New Home for Liberty: Human Rights, Slavery and the Creation of West Virginia," in Morgantown, Charleston and Shepherdstown over the past two years. But in 2013, the 150th anniversary year of the Mountain State's split from Virginia, there was no question where its next stop should be, they said.
"We need to do this in Wheeling," Larry Starcher, former state Supreme Court of Appeals Justice and one of the group's co-directors, said.

DISCUSSING PLAY — The Rev. Darrell Cummings, left, spoke with Tom Rodd, co-director of the J.R. Clifford Project, Friday during a meeting at West Virginia Independence Hall about the possible production of West Virginia statehood play in Wheeling sometime this year. - Ian Hicks
Written by Charleston lawyer Tom Rodd, the living history drama examines West Virginia's origins through the lens of slavery and civil rights. Topics include the plight of escaped slaves as they sought safety in the North, the harassment children faced whose parents were identified with the abolition movement, and the divisions the slavery issue wrought among delegates to West Virginia's statehood convention, which originally sent Congress a constitution silent on the issue of slavery, but added a gradual emancipation clause at the federal government's insistence.
Requirements in order for the play to happen include finding a suitable venue, a local director and funding, because the J.R. Clifford Project refuses to charge admission for the play in order to keep it open to anyone who wants to attend. Production costs are estimated at $26,700, but Rodd said that figure can be reduced through in-kind donations, such as free or discounted use of a venue.
"What we've got to do is get a group of people together to say yes, we want to do this and we're going to make it happen," Rodd said.
Among those attending Friday's meeting was John Mattox, curator of the Underground Railroad Museum in Flushing whose great-grandmother was a slave in North Carolina. He said the story is one that needs to be told.
"We all know what happened up on the third floor," he said, referring to the now-restored courtroom inside West Virginia Independence Hall where the statehood conventions took place. "We've heard it so many times, and we think we know it all ... and we don't know it all," said Mattox.
West Virginia University law professor Atiba Ellis told those gathered that for him, getting involved with the play was an opportunity to stand in the shoes of history's giants and share the vision of building community in the present by learning from the past.
"To stand in those shoes was wonderful. ... This project is your opportunity to stand in those shoes, speak those words and project that vision. ... Now more than ever, we need to share that vision," Ellis said.
Anyone interested in getting involved should call Judy Rodd at (304) 345-7663. Mattox also offered to help organize local support, noting those interested can call him as well, at (740) 986-2080.
The J.R. Clifford Project's namesake, John Robert Clifford, was born to free black parents in modern-day Grant County, W.Va., in 1848. He fought in the Civil War, later founded his own newspaper and in 1887 became West Virginia's first African-American attorney. About a decade later he successfully argued a landmark civil rights case before the state Supreme Court of Appeals that reversed the Tucker County Board of Education's decision to shorten the school year for black students from nine months to five.

Can a "kosher eating only" Jew who receives a coupon for a free meal at a non-kosher restraurant give that coupon to another jew, even if they don't keep kosher? I know you are not making them go and eat non kosher food, or even know for sure that they will use it, but you are making it easier for them and even encouraging them to eat non kosher food.

It's prohibited. While not the Biblical "lifnei iver" as he could eat non-kosher with or without you, it's the rabbinic "mesayea y'dei ovrei aveira" as you're still helping facilitate his transgression here.
There are various loopholes applied to get out of the prohibition of mesyaea if there's a good need, e.g. many rabbis allow inviting non-observant people for Shabbos even if you know they'll drive. But in a case of a non-kosher-restaurant coupon, I just don't see it.
You could certainly give it to your non-Jewish next-door-neighbor or co-worker. There are enough times that they have done (or will do) a favor for you, that it's only fair. ולפיכך אין בזה משום ״לא תחנם״
(Yes if you gave it to a non-Jewish acquaintance, you would be deriving benefit from the coupon in the form of an "I-owe-you-one", but that's okay for virtually all non-kosher foods other than Ruminantia-meat-cooked-with-Ruminantia-milk, and maybe non-kosher wine according to Sephardim.)

One of the highlights of my job as the "Pentaho Community Guy" is the yearly Community Gathering. This year, thanks to Webdetails, it was in beautiful Cascais, Portugal. For a full recap of the event check out the blog, Pentaho Community Gathering (live), courtesy of Jan Aertsen at kJube. This is the third year that the community has gathered for a weekend of presentations, beer and fun. In 2009 it was in Barcelona Spain and before that, Mainz Germany.
I have been working with the community for about six years both as a developer and as community manager. I've watched it go from a few familiar people answering questions in the forums to a daily flood of ideas (and other stuff) in the IRC. Where it really gets fun and interesting is when people who work together, help each other and joke around every day, get to meet in person. The flow of ideas accelerates greatly when in person and not constrained by a command line.
So – why only get the community together just once a year? Community members in the London area had the same question and decided to start a Pentaho London User Group. They are holding their first Pentaho London User Group or PLUG today, Wednesday October 27th. If you are near London stop by.
As the London group was getting the word out, other community members from around the world have been vocal on Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn, asking about starting a group. To help people get started, we've created some guidelines and added resources to the Pentaho community site to help people connect and organize their own Pentaho User Group or PUG. Each group will have it's own personality and be owned by it's local community. PUGs are a place to share best practices, foster innovation, network and build relationships with other Pentaho professionals.
Visit the home of Pentaho User Groups where you can find information about current Pentaho User Groups, let others know about your group and find answers to questions related to starting a group of your own.
I do believe that we have the most active and friendly developer community in Open Source BI. However, you can see for yourself by attending or starting a Pentaho User Group online or in-person.

A University of Colorado Boulder faculty member will travel to Africa later this month to test a mobile smartphone technology developed by his team to rapidly detect and track natural carcinogens, including aflatoxin, which is estimated to contaminate up to 25 percent of the global food supply and cause severe illnesses in humans and animals.
Associate Professor Don Cooper, co-founder and chief science officer of Mobile Assay Inc., a CU startup company, developed the technology in his laboratory at the Institute for Behavioral Genetics. The trip to Africa is being funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation as a follow-on to a 2012 Gates Foundation grant to Mobile Assay Inc. as part of the Grand Challenges Explorations initiative.
The new technology includes using mobile devices, rapid diagnostic test strips (similar to pregnancy test strips), geographical tagging and cloud computing to rapidly detect, quantify and track common crop pathogens in real time to reduce their harmful impacts in developing countries. "Our new method is more sensitive, faster and more quantitative than any of the existing rapid tests out there on the market," said Cooper.
Aflatoxins are highly toxic chemical poisons produced primarily by the fungus Aspergillus flavus, a mold that affects nuts, seeds and legumes and is known to cause liver cancer and compromised immune function in animals and humans. "Our new tools should ultimately allow farmers in developing countries to identify and track pathogens infecting seeds and share their data, which could improve crop yields and prevent crop losses," he said.
The Agricultural Research Connections conference sponsored by the Gates Foundation will take place Aug. 25-30 in Nairobi and the nearby market town of Naivasha in Kenya. The goal of the workshops is to develop new partnerships among scientists doing agricultural research with the potential to create new pathways out of poverty for African farming families. "We are excited to meet with local farmers, community members and scientists to identify how we can best implement our mobile diagnostic tools in order to advance pathogen detection in sub-Saharan Africa," said Cooper, also in the psychology and neuroscience department.
Identifying and tracking contaminated seeds is especially challenging in places like Africa, where individual farmers often keep their seed stocks stashed in boxes and sacks around the household and regularly trade them at village markets, said Cooper. "There will be a lot of work going on at the conference by scientists using interesting genetic tools to reduce or mitigate problems with aflatoxin," said Cooper. "But without the ability to detect it, it's difficult to know if one is actually succeeding."
The testing method developed by Cooper and his team has been proven to be both fast and accurate. Users first obtain samples of grain suspected to be tainted, liquefy them and expose them to a customized test strip specifically designed to detect aflatoxin. A smartphone or tablet is then held over the test strip for automated image analysis. Within minutes the smartphone screen displays two bands – a control band and a test band to quantify the level of the grain infection.
A key part of the "Lab-on-Mobile Device," or LMD, platform developed by Cooper's team is the Mobile Imaging Ratiometry, or MRI, a unique software algorithm developed by Cooper that analyzes the images from the smartphones or tablets in real time. The information is geo-tagged and shared through cloud computing in remote data storage facilities that can be instantly made available to project participants. The LMD technology also will allow for the creation of real-time electronic "push-pin" maps showing places where aflatoxins have been detected.

The tutorial will be fun for kids or any novice artist out there that likes making their own dinosaur drawings, but would much rather do it in a simple way. The allosaurus is a theropod dinosaur that lived between one hundred fifty, to one hundred fifty five million years ago. They are definitely cavernous and they where also very large. Anyways, have fun with drawing an allosaurus for kids and I will be back in a bit. Peace folks.

If you're going to buy one, please don't use it on a computer for which you aren't authorized to run this tool. Plugging this into any work PC without direct written approval will get you fired, and plugging it into someone else's personal computer runs you the risk of getting sued. Additionally, if you access someone else's account on another system via harvested credentials (e.g. email, fb), the company can target you for legal action. In all of these cases, you can also be prosecuted under the computer fraud and abuse act, among many others.
Really, you probably have no business buying this short of monitoring the family computer, and that's only once you've told every adult who uses that computer that there's a keylogger running on it. The kids should also arguably be informed, but that's up to your parenting strategy. This tool is not worth the trouble for 99.9% of users, and the remaining 0.1% would benefit more from a PI.
Background: I do work in information assurance
So, that comment above should cover people looking to use this for their own needs. Here's a quickie for those using this for business reasons (e.g. employers):
Certain communications are still protected regardless of whether you own the work computer or not. Health information is one example. If you're concerned about browsing habits, tools which monitor usage (bluecoat, websense, etc.) are far more appropriate. You don't want to be the employer who gets busted for harvesting passwords, and even as an employer with account credentials, you're still not authorized to access the account of the person whose credentials you just grabbed. No disclaimer in the world will guarantee that kind of access, and you don't want to be responsible for it either.
Long story short: talk to a lawyer. A lawyer should hopefully be able to talk you out of buying this for business use.
I'm not a lawyer, so don't seek me out for legal advice. I'm familiar with the laws because it's what I do for a living.
"For members of the Woot community… just $39.95. Everyone else… $99.95. Just click on the link and your special discount will be taken at the cart." Tried. Doesn't work. Tried different browser, doesn't work. Tried different computer, doesn't work. Site prompts for email, supposedly for additional discount, also doesn't work.
@williger: That's because the seller is using this very device to trace all of your info!
I believe it may be illegal to use this device on any machine you don't own in some jurisdictions as well. Be careful.
One last thing to worry about with a software keylogger like this.
Where exactly does it store all the data? Windows tries very hard to protect your passwords, but if you just record them all somewhere on the hard drive, what prevents any random person from coming along and rescuing them from wherever this software writes it and using them to hack you?
There's very little data on their website about how exactly the software is locked down. Not impressed.
And clicking the given link does not take you to a page for this product. It simply takes you to the vendor's home page. It looks as if the vendor is just trying to drive traffic to their website, not really sell this product. In short, the vendor looks pretty bogus to me.
In a time of growing concern about identity theft and IT security, I am somewhat surprised that Woot would allow this to be offered. Although it may be illegal in many jurisdictions, that would not stop many would be hackers from using a simplistic device to further their surreptitious intent.The analogy to guns can easily be made generating the necessity for regulation. If you are concerned about digital privacy, please complain to Woot not to foster illicit hacking by offering products such as this.
It's not really "Any PC" when it is limited to Windows PCs.
Legal questions aside, I think the stealth of this device would be enhanced with a bigger font on its label announcing its purpose. That, and a nice neon case.
Since the instructions say "Plug it in, install the software, then remove the device and take it with you," I don't see that the logo has much relevance to the stealth of the device.
I had a overly trusting client once, who had hired someone that they considered to be a close family friend. This close family friend handled the customer sales of the client's small business. After about a year, the client and his wife began to suspect that the family friend/employee wasn't being entirely honest with their money. A lot of the sales went through Paypal, so they tried to login to put their concerns to rest, only to find that they no longer had access. They had a couple customers complain that their orders had fallen through at this point. Since the family friend kept the sales records, he had falsified several, and even blatantly omitted several others. He wasn't very bright.
They confronted the man and he flatly denied that he had been stealing from the company and evaded questions about access to the Paypal account with a variety of stalling tactics. They immediately fired him, but needed access to the money in the Paypal account immediately to fulfill the...
Really irresponsible of woot to put this up. Any invasion of privacy, especially one this explicit, is ethically wrong, no question about it.
@williger: Same here. No luck with discount. Would buy, but it seems like these guys don't have their act together. How can they be trusted for a security product if they can't handle cookies?
customer orders. The family friend had sworn over and over that they had no money in the Paypal account, but angry customers were calling in and claiming otherwise.
They owned the computer that the man worked on and gave me permission to do whatever I needed to do to legally regain access to their Paypal account for them as quickly as possible. I used a similar device to this one and had them convince the man that they felt that they had made a mistake and apologize. They invited him back with an apology bonus of some arbitrary amount of money.
Again, this man was no Stephen Hawking and was delighted to return. On his first day back, he logged into Paypal to check on his stolen funds. I retrieved the password, he was re-fired, reported to the police and, of course, did not receive his "apology bonus."
Oh yeah, he had accumulated several thousands of dollars in their Paypal account. Oddly enough, he had never gotten around to moving any of it, since he felt that changing the password essentially made it "his account" and was confident they'd never be able to regain access through Paypal, apparently. Again, not the brightest individual.
They were working with Paypal, but that was back when getting any kind of help from them was like trying to draw blood from stone. It was difficult just to get in contact with someone, much less make any progress on a situation like this. Today, such a device wouldn't be needed for this scenario.
I'm not sure that I understand the down-votes. My purpose for sharing that story was to demonstrate that while there are many unethical uses for devices like this, there are also legitimate ones. In this case, it saved a family's small business when they got in over their head because they were too trusting. They learned a hard, but valuable lesson from the experience were able to repair the damaged relationships with their clients because they didn't have to wait for Paypal's then-nonexistent support to sort this out for them.
You may not have dealt with Paypal in the early days, but their solution to most situations to simply freeze the account, preventing it from sending, receiving, or withdrawing funds until someone eventually got around to dealing with the case. Even then, the process was very painful and slow.
No downvote from me! I clearly see the point of your story:
iBots don't cheat people; criminals with iBots cheat people.
Anyway, ethics aside, this vendor's discount doesn't seem to work, so it's a bad deal. There are lots of sources for keyloggers, and plenty of free keylogging software. So this offering was a bad deal at $99.99, and even at $39.99.
@imscience: ROFL! Way to go! A label reading "Stealth" is really smart!
Do not buy these to track what your spouse does online. My wife installed a keylogger on my computer a few years back and I found out about it. I had never given her any reason to be suspicious but her previous husband had cheated on her. The marriage was never the same after that and ended in divorce.
Looks like the link is going to the right place now and pricing is correct.
I have a keylogger on my personal computer (software based) that records every key I press. Rather than spying with it though, I use it for retracing steps I made over a year ago. It saves logs to my external HD and it has come in handy many times in the past. This is another legitimate use of keylogging software, however I think the "stealth" aspect is primarily what is being sold here, which seems questionable to me.
I use a key logger for my kids. It's a life-saver for any working parent.
For me, it's completely above board. I tell my kids if they want a computer, I need to be sure they're safe. We install the logger together. So there's no spying or deception.
They know that I may have access to what they're doing, so they don't do stupid things!
@breakdver: At least until the kids get wise enough to use linux on a bootable USB stick.
Load of crap. Link says $99 and that's that. Really, Woot? It's come to this?
The link does work, add to cart for sale price.

Supplies to customers are being largely maintained to schedule, and Essar says it has plans in place to ensure that remains the case while repairs are made to the unit. The fire at the Stanlow refinery didn't impact the two main crude distillation units or the residue catalytic cracking unit.
By JENNY GROSS
LONDON -- A fire broke out in a furnace of Essar
Energy's Stanlow refinery in the UK on Saturday, but
it has since been extinguished and isn't affecting deliveries
to customers, Andrew Turpin, a company spokesman, said
"Supplies to customers are being largely maintained to
schedule, and we have plans in place to ensure this remains the
case while repairs are made to the unit," Mr. Turpin said.
The fire didn't impact the two main crude distillation units or the residue
catalytic cracking unit, the company said.
No one was injured.

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

Perhaps its my partial Irish ancestry but I love potatoes. I also love potato salad, but it can be a bit bland and boring after a few picnics. Curry powder and some peas spice up this version, and you can leave the mayo behind of you like. It tastes great both warm and cold.
- 6-8 small potatoes
- 1/2 small onion, minced
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 2 tbsp oil (or use some vegan mayo)
- 1 tsp curry powder (or to taste)
- 1/2 tsp chili powder
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 1 cup thawed frozen peas, or cooked fresh peas

Curried Potato Salad
Perhaps its my partial Irish ancestry but I love potatoes. I also love potato salad, but it can be a bit bland and boring after a few picnics. Curry powder and some peas spice up this version, and you can leave the mayo behind of you like. It tastes great both warm and cold.

My husband is Irish through-and-through. He has been a naturalized U.S. citizen for almost 10 years, and ... he still hates potatoes as much as he did when he was a true Irishman. You see, he had to eat potatoes a lot growing up. A LOT. Two or three times a day, every day.
I always thought my Irish half was the part of me that made me love potatoes. But, since meeting my husband, I've realized the truth ... it's the non-Irish part.

This looks great. One tip I've adopted is microwaving potatoes for potato salad until they are nearly done, but still a little firm. Quicker, fewer dishes, and less heat in the kitchen during the summer.

Oh yum, I like the spice combo! I would definitely put in some Vegenaise - I always hated potato salad and mayo until I became vegan, haha!

i am adding you to my blogroll. I've been vegetarian for about 9 months now, and just left college... and run a blank of food ideas...thanks for the recipes and info!
I was thinking of making a potato salad from tatertots?

Oh boy that looks good. I will be trying that sometime in September...(potato season has started at our CSA).

OMG this is good! I made it exactly (well almost exactly) as you said -- just a bit less chili pepper as I am serving a toddler. And, I sauteed, ever so briefly, the garlic and onion in a bit of olive oil. I also used the Veganaise. I think this is a new favorite recipe!

This sounds great. I imagine this would taste like a vegetarian samosa filling?
- September 2, 2009 at 6:48 PM
- Vegan Dad said...
Yes, it is like samosa filling, now that I think about it.
Yeah, when I went to Ireland they served potatoes with everything. Nothing like lasagna with a side of french fries.

I took a triple batch of this to a mixed (vegan, veg, omni) bbq today and it was extremely well received.
I tweaked it a bit, added a lot more curry powder and some diced roasted red bell peppers. I also omitted the cilantro because I'm not a fan. One pal commented that it needed more crunch, so I may add celery or cashews (or both!) next time.
Thanks Vegan Dad! A+!

Hi: next time, try this with chaat masala (the spice mix specific for chaat) for a great aloo chaat (potato chaat). Omit the mayo of course and only use about 1/2 the oil. Garlic optional, but sprinkle some lemon juice. Cilantro a must, maybe a little very finely diced red onion.

Writing from his prison cell in Nazi Germany in 1945 Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a young German theologian, sketched a vision of what he called "religionless Christianity." In this book, John Shelby Spong puts flesh onto the bare bones of Bonhoeffer's radical thought. The result is a strikingly new and different portrait of Jesus of Nazareth—a Jesus for the non-religious.
Spong challenges much of the traditional understanding that has for so long surrounded the Jesus of history, from the tale of his miraculous birth to a virgin, to the account of his cosmic ascension into the sky at the end of his life. Spong questions the historicity of the ideas that Jesus was born in Bethlehem, that he had twelve disciples, and that the miracle stories were meant to be descriptions of supernatural events. He also speaks directly to those contemporary critics of Christianity who call God a "delusion" and who write letters to a "Christian nation" and describe how Christianity has become evil and destructive.
Spong invites his readers to look at Jesus through the lens of both the Jewish scriptures and the liturgical life of the first-century synagogue. Dismissing the dispute about Jesus' nature that consumed the church's leadership for the first 500 years of Christian history as irrelevant, Spong proposes a new way of understanding the divinity of Christ: as the ultimate dimension of a fulfilled humanity. Traditional Christians who still cling to dated concepts of the past will not be comfortable with this book; however, skeptics of the twenty-first century will not be quite so certain that dismissing Jesus is the correct pathway to walk. Jesus for the Non-Religious may be the book that finally brings the pious and the secular into a meaningful dialogue, opening the door to a living Christianity in the post-Christian world.
John Shelby Spong was the Episcopal Bishop of Newark for twenty-four years prior to his retirement in 2000. Since then he has taught at Harvard University, the University of the Pacific and Drew University and he has been a visiting lecturer at universities and churches throughout North America and the English-speaking world. His books have sold over a million copies and he is regarded as one of Christianitys frontier twenty-first-century thinkers. His bestselling titles include Eternal Life: A New Vision, Jesus for the Non-Religious, The Sins of Scripture, A New Christianity for a New World, Rescuing the Bible from Fundamentalism, Resurrection: Myth or Reality?, Why Christianity Must Change or Die and his autobiography, Here I Stand. He lives with his wife, Christine, in Morris Plains, New Jersey.

Just about 11 years ago, the following words appeared as part of an editorial we wrote in an attempt to bring perspective to the events of Sept. 11, 2001:
"We cannot and should not, ever again, as a people, as a nation, be anything but the strongest nation in the world. We must conduct ourselves as such and never be fooled again into thinking our way of life can be preserved by giving up or giving in."
Those words continue to ring true today, the 11th anniversary of the heinous terrorist attacks on the United States.
While time continues to pass, it's important to remember that day and the way our world has changed.
Like today, Sept, 11, 2001, was a Tuesday. It was one of those late summer days people in our part of the country wait all year for, one with a cloudless blue sky, comfortable temperatures and low humidity. We had just dropped the kids off at school, arrived at work or made the first shopping stop of the day when the news broke -an airplane had hit the World Trade Center.
A tragic accident, we thought, until we learned a second plane slammed into the complex and a third plane had been crashed into the Pentagon.
We didn't know then that a fourth plane was passing over our heads on its way to Washington. Only later would we learn that the passengers and surviving flight crew forced those who had hijacked that plane -United Flight 93 - to fly the aircraft into the ground near Shanksville, Pa., and thus won the first battle in our war on terrorism.
It's sometimes hard to remember that sense of resolve that all Americans felt that day and shortly thereafter. We were willing to put aside our differences and come together as one nation, showing a strong sense of resolve to the rest of the world.
Sadly, we have let a part of that spirit slip away, and nowhere is that more evident in our politics, where Democrats and Republicans seem to be locked into a battle of mutually assured self-destruction.
Our hope is that everyone can put those differences aside and continue to work for their communities, help their neighbors and friends and strengthen their families.
Today, we remember those who died on Sept. 11, whether they were the civilians who were merely going about their daily lives in the World Trade Center, the employees in the Pentagon, the flight crews and passengers on the four airliners that were commandeered in the attacks and the first responders who gave their lives while trying to save others. We also remember the servicemen and women whose lives have been lost in the war on terror.
While we remember and mourn, we must resolve to stand strong as Americans, and continue to work together.

Quick trick spurs Naugatuck over Hearts
NAUGATUCK -- Last week, it was a polecat formation. Thursday night, it was a reverse pitch. Craig Bruno and his Naugatuck High football team love their trick plays.
Naugy's Kevin Robinson scored on an 82-yard run in the game's opening seconds and the Greyhounds never looked back en route to a 49-19 win over Sacred Heart at Veterans Field.
"We come out guns hot," said Naugatuck quarterback Jason Bradley, who completed five of nine passes for 176 yards and accounted for three touchdowns. "I love it. We're always ready to come out and excite everybody."
Robinson scored on a similar play last week on a 12-yard run against Wolcott, but his 82-yarder on the first play from scrimmage Thursday -- helped by a smothering block on the edge by left guard David Kloc -- carried a different vibe.
"There's nothing like a coach who's aggressive," Robinson said. "There's nothing better. I didn't think we were going to call that play, but it was just tenaciousness."
"I always try to score quickly," Bruno said. "In a game situation where we felt we had the better team, our guys were a little lethargic. Sometimes when you run a trick play it gets things going. Kevin made a nice run and he was gone."
The Greyhounds (3-0) ended the game about as quickly as it started.
They scored on each of their seven possessions with the first stringers out there, including five touchdowns in the first 8:51.
Kevin Mariano's fumble recovery set up Bradley's 6-yard touchdown pass to Ryne Griesenauer for a 14-0 lead before a three-and-out for the Hearts led to Bradley's 2-yard keeper and a 21-0 advantage.
Aaron Yourison blocked a punt on the next drive that turned into a 33-yard touchdown hookup between Bradley and Rick Plasky for a 28-0 lead.
Sacred Heart (0-3) finally got on the board when Quincy Williams' 76-yard kickoff return set up his 3-yard touchdown sneak with 4:38 to play in the first.
Naugy scored again to make it a 35-7 game on a 7-yard run by Tom Douty, who led all rushers with 109 yards and two touchdowns.
The Greyhounds' next series was their favorite of the night. With the ball on the 1-yard line, Bruno called a timeout to set up a running play for senior lineman Mark Cavagnulo, who made it a 42-7 lead with an all-out dive across the goal line.
"It was not necessary at all," Cavagnulo said of throwing his 6-foot, 255-pound frame into the air.
"There was a 3-yard hole and a guy on the ground, so I figured why not? It was great."
Bruno said the team had talked about the possibility of giving linemen goal line carries if the situation allowed.
"He's been working hard and I'm glad he had the chance to do that," Bruno said.
Sacred Heart's Parris Wolfe rushed for a team-high 105 yards and two touchdowns.

Dr. Jacobson will be on sabbatical for AY 2015-16.
Professor Jacobson's research focuses primarily on Greek drama (tragedy and comedy). He is particularly interested in the capacity dramatic productions have to draw the audience into a dramatic fiction, to make them active participants in the plays themselves, an issue he explores in his research through the study of language and performance. Professor Jacobson has taught classes on Greek and Roman literature, history, myth, and culture, as well as Greek and Latin language courses.
I've always described my foray into Classics as a series of wrong turns. I had no intention of learning a foreign language in college, nor any inherent love for the Greeks or Romans. My life changed forever when, after taking a few history and literature courses on the ancient Greeks and Romans, I decided to learn Greek. I was mesmerized instantly by the subtlety, beauty, and complexity of the language and have never looked back. If you are looking for me on the recently painted Classics Lounge mural, here I am:

If you are interested in hearing about "Conversations with Oedipus," a 3-day symposium on the contemporary value of ancient drama, which I organized in 2014, you can listen to my podcast here, or see the department's News and Events page.

A site about the betas and stuff of Sonic the Hedgehog games, unfortunately, it is run by a racist little asshole who hates and steals from everybody who he thinks is better than him, which is nearly every other Sonic site in the world.

Good site, but the forum was better in the past. I always liked the explicit nature of the cult, much better than the SSRG with it's pubescent whining cretins. Seems they've all jumped onto the cult forums now...

How is it possible, that it is harder to follow Jesus, than to sin? I really want to follow Jesus, and I'm trying to. But every day again I fail again, because short term desires which withdraw me from God and Jesus. How is it possible, that the devil can still catch my attention and make me sin? I pray each day again, and ask for Jesus to lead my way, the Holy Spirit to live in me, and the devil to leave my life.

Pious Christians tend to overlook a very simple truth about sin. In the short term, it is fun.
And why is it fun? Because as Jesus said (John 3:19):
And why do men love darkness rather than light? Solomon noted (Proverbs 14:12):
Simply put:
But in the end, it's not worth it.
Ultimately, all sin comes down to one question - Will you trust God or yourself? And tell me - who wouldn't naturally - absent God's direct intervention - choose one's self?
The very first temptation that the Serpent told Eve was that the apple was good.
In this, and this may be shocking - the Serpent did not lie. He merely omitted the long term consequences. In the short term, all sin seems to have a positive reinforcement.
Ecclesiastes 8 says it well:
Finally, it should be understood that sin is not a defect of will - it is a defect of love. John 14 15 says:
This is a universal problem among Christians.
Paul said, in Romans 7:15, "For I do not understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate." In Jeremiah 17:9, the prophet states that, "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it?" Truly, the Bible doesn't have good things to say about people, and anyone who says it does, is either lying or trying to sell you something.
Ultimately, it comes down to the human condition. This is a universal, and necessary part of the Christian Gospel. Christ came to die to pay the penalty owed by sinners, so that the God, who loves us, can have a relationship with us that he would not have been able to have otherwise. Without the sin, and without the depravity, there is no need for Christ, and thus, there's no need for the Gospel. This is why Paul starts out Romans with a vast exposition of the quandary we're in. Romans 3:10-18 says:
Now, there's a thought that gets passed around that says that once we become Christians, we have some new power to resist sin. Almost like we've been endowed with special superpowers after we become believers. Suddenly, since God has given us his Holy Spirit, we're supposed to more and more consistently prefer God to man. In other words, we'll get better and better over our lifetime, until we get to the point that we're perfect. I disagree, and I don't think there's much support for that in the Bible. We never outgrow the need for God's grace.
Remember, it was the older men who walked away from stoning the adulteress first. It was they who, after years of living, recognized more clearly than the younger men the evil that lies within their hearts. Would they have thus said that they are more perfect because they're older? I don't think so. I believe they would have said they were less perfect.
So what is Christian growth then? Put simply, it's growing in your appreciation and thankfulness for all that Christ has done for you. As you realize more and more the depth of your own depravity, you can, at the same time, recognize more and more the mercy in Christ's sacrifice. We, who can be so utterly hateful towards God, he still chooses to save us and love us, not out of our goodness, but out of his grace. You become less, and He becomes greater.
I also want to point out one thing here that I think you've hit on in your question. Never think that temptation is always from the devil. The depravity lies within your own heart as well. James puts it well:
We're not innocent pawns caught between God and the devil. We're depraved, guilty sinners in need of a Savior. When we see our own depravity and realize that it's not simply that we commit sins, but that we are sinful, it helps us up to recognize the great value of the cross of Christ.
As Steve Brown says, "Cheer up; you're a lot worse off than you think you are, but in Jesus you're far more loved than you could have ever imagined."
So what to do now? Rejoice. Be thankful. Praise God for the gift of Christ's sacrifice, which pays for each and every one of those sins you're committing. It's cleared out. Over with. As Jesus says, "It is finished". The verdict has been rendered, you are guilty, but your penalty has been paid already, and you are free to go.
What are you still doing in the courtroom?
There are two principles that must be joined to specifically answer your question about the 'easiness' of sin.
The first principle First, the notion of spiritual slavery. A sinner is a slave to sin and free from righteousness. That is to say a sinner can only sin and has no real struggle with a desire to be righteous. A sinner is quite free - to sin only. On the other hand a regenerate believer is actually no longer a slave to sin, but a slave to righteousness. Their inner desire is not satisfied but by living righteousness. All we desire is to be holy and we have no choice in the matter. We are slaves to righteousness.
Your groaning over you sin is one of the trustworthy evidences that you are no longer a slave to sin. If you were satisfied with you level of righteousness it would be good evidence that your were still enslaved to sin.
The second principle Regeneration only makes your inner man alive but you outer man is still in Adam, causing a Christian to be very unique in this world. A Christian is strange because he has two natures within himslef, warring against each other.
This dual nature, not comprehended by sinners, means that even when we do good there is always some sin staining the good. We therefore never for a moment have a 100% pure heart, but sin like a shadow clothes all our goodness. There is no such thing as a motive that is not mixed. This horrible wrestling between two natures causes us great grief and mourning. It is making us cry out to be rescued:
Now we can answer the question under these two principles. What you seem to describe is an 'easiness' in sin, whereas walking according to the Spirit requires 'effort' and 'discipline' is a 'struggle' that never ceases. This is one of the hallmarks of the Christian experience. Why is it easy to sin? I think part of the answer lies in the different roles that each side of the struggle plays.
The struggle of sin is supported by the world under the power of the Devil and it invades our lives without any pause or relief. Thankfully the struggle of righteousness is supported by a stronger principle, the Holy Spirit producing the effects of Christ's death in our lives to the glory of the Father. The world is destined to loose and is loosing. However, when we fall into sin, our experience of the Spirit weakens, but when we commit ourselves to God afresh, the flesh does not necessarily 'weaken'. It weakens in it's influence but does not weaken in the intensity of its resistance. It actually becomes even more lively in its lusts against God's will. What I mean is; We actually loose consciousness of God, his will, his love, his enjoyable supreme goodness, when we given ourselves over to temptation. When we give ourselves over to God we do not looses our consciousness of our desire to fornicate, murder, steel, etc. On the contrary often our evil desires flares up more violently into our conscious when we become more aware of God. This makes sin easy but holiness something that requires discipline and effort.The result is that there is a 'lazy easiness' to sin dictated by a desire for pleasure and things visible to our senses.
But to warp up. This easiness for a real believer is even used by God to fashion our faith into greater faith and righteousness. Actually we are slaves to God and he is greater than our temptations. It sounds contradictory but actually it is easier for us to follow God, it just does not feel easier due to the struggle involved. The reason is that since our inner man desires nothing but God and will not be satisfied until its weakens the influence of the flesh as much as possible, our struggle with sin is actually making us hate it more. God may even hand us over to our sins, a bit, for a time, in order to expose them lurking within us, and to make us hate them so very much! Over time we become more and more holy and more desirous to enter the comforting shadow that lays behind the physical grave - our eternal glory.
We are actually like superman but are exhausted in killing sin. We are being propelled into ever increasing glory and victory yet we are weak and we mourn with an ever growing consciousness of sin. We are like aliens slowly ripping our flesh off from our person. It confuses us. The enemies about us, especially the religious without faith, have no idea about who we are. We are considered fools speaking meaningless things yet we have the words of eternal life and the wisdom of God deposited in weak earthen vessels. We are not from this earth and there is nothing here that really has a hold on us. Its just not a clean picture. Its very messy. Its full of blood, snot and sweat. Its very deceptive.
The question is why is it so much easier to follow sin than to follow Jesus.
The short answer is because your flesh is not redeemed and it wants to run amok. Romans 7:14-20 says:
I think it may be a matter of faith as to whether a person can comprehend the message of Romans chapter 7. In this passage Paul shows us the distinction between our flesh and our spirit. Sin still lives in our flesh. Sin is at home in our flesh, very comfortable there. Sin has had this home for a shorter time for some and a longer time for others but no matter who you are or what your background, sin lives in your flesh.
Romans 7:21 says: So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me.
If you want to talk about NT laws, you can put the Law of Sin in the Flesh at the top of the list. The LOSITF was not defeated or changed at the cross. That Law says "Adam let me in, I have every right to be here until your body dies, and there is precious little you can do about it."
I think that the wording in the section of scripture is very important. The LOSITF must be obeyed. It's not a law like the Law of Moses, where the people said "Every thing that the Lord has said, we will do" and then they promptly failed to do it.
The LOSITF is more like the law of gravity. If you have enough power, you can defy the law of gravity...for a while. Eventually, the plane will run out of fuel and crash.
You can also defy LOSITF...for a while...if you're flying high on your own power with a bit of the Holy Spirit thrown in. This is where "being a good Christian" is worked out by the faithful every day as we try to defy the LOSITF out of our love for God. But eventually we're going to run out of gas, and we're going to fall back to earth again, and then we'll curse ourselves for being a weak Christian. And then we'll try again...and again...and, well, you get it.
What does this mean? Does God mean to tell us that we'll always be a slave to the LOSITF? That we actually have two masters both Sin and God? Yes, I think that is exactly what God is telling us. I think that is exactly the conclusion that Paul comes to. I...am...wretched...but only in the flesh, not in the spirit.
I think this is why Paul went to great lengths to confirm to us previously in Romans 6 what the solution was to this dilemma.
The solution to the dilemma of having two natures in one body is to reckon yourself dead, and resurrected. First the dead part...stop beating a dead horse about sin. Many of us flog ourselves daily because this dead body won't do what we want it to do. Stop it! Your body is dead. Stop looking at the putrefaction. Stop trying to make deals with it. Stop trying to make it look like a Christian.
Instead, look at your resurrected self. This is what Paul means by "We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life."
We have already been raised from the dead. Turn your back on the dead body and turn your face toward the resurrected self. That self is sinless, holy, spotless, unable to be tempted. Sin itself loves this dead body. It is its natural habitat, so that "if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.
Again in verse 25 "...So then, I myself in my mind am a slave to God's law, but in my sinful nature a slave to the law of sin."
Then, you really need to read Romans 8. I will not quote the whole chapter, but suffice it to say that God knows what we are and doesn't condemn us for it.
You are in Christ Jesus. Stop looking at the dead body you left behind. Look only to Jesus. Look only to His Spirit. Don't fight the flesh because all that does is give it power. Don't even look at it. Instead of fighting the flesh and losing, allow your resurrected self to be yoked with Him.
It's a leap of faith to believe that you can stop thinking about sin, and not only that, but be comfortable with who you are. To confess who you are, as Paul does.
So when I pray, I don't ask God to take my sin away. I just confess that I am a sinner. Then I do the important thing...I offer myself. If you take the approach to Christian growth that you must stop sinning, you're going to remain a baby in Christ forever. You're forever going to be living in the flesh instead of the Spirit. Christians think that living in the flesh is what the unbeliever does, but I say it's what Christians who fight their flesh are doing.
Paul is talking to Christians here, not to unbelievers. He says Christians can have their minds so set on what the flesh is doing that they become hostile to God and they do not please God. They are always "struggling" with some sin or other.
You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you.
You've heard it over and over...walk in the Spirit and you will not fulfill the lusts of the flesh. Put another way, keep your eyes focused on the Spirit and sin will fall away. You don't have to "struggle" with sin, you have to acknowledge it, confess it, then ignore it, keeping your attention on the Spirit within you.
This, I believe, is walking in the Spirit. I know this is rather long, but it's an important concept and hard to understand. Sin, my friend, is no longer an issue. Sin was dealt with on the cross. You are dead. You are alive again, but as a different sort of creature, a sinful shell and a holy interior. Pay much more attention the the holy interior than you do to the sinful shell and you will not have questions like this.

I want to install 12.10 in a USB 2.0 pen drive. I just want to know which brand will be more reliable? I want to use it for long time purpose. I also want good reading and writing speed from the drive and onto the drive.
I do not believe that this is an issue anymore. To quote wikipedia on this
Just go for a common brand like Verbatim, Corsair, Kingston, Sandisk. They probably get those made in the same factory anyways. All of them will get you at least a few years from the pen drive. Long enough for you to get a new one (with alot more capacity) anyways.
Regarding the second part: speed. There is a very long list of USB drives here but do not expect USB 2.0 to be fast. I myself have a corsair gt, patriot quad channel, jetflash 330. None of these 3 are slow.

My arch linux installation didn't go well (apparently I should have gone through netinstall instead of core). When I try again, should I use the Chakra project (which is supposedly easier), or should I use netinstall?
Describe where you are stuck?
Core is fine, use ethernet cable for internet connection. Being new to linux, wifi install works for many out of the box, but if not it may frustrate a bit. [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wireless_Setup]
You will need wpa_supplicant, wireless_tools, and the driver for your card. When you select packages from the ' [*]dev_base ' during the installation.
You'll want to try to install arch at least once successfully before moving to chakra since it's based on arch, if you have issues this will help you get used to finding answers.
Skim through the sections, then read the parts your not clear on.
[ https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beginners_Guide ]
It may also be a good choice to practice installing arch then chakra on virtual box before going live with your real system. Try to have another computer to read guides from while installing so you can troubleshoot.

This is what I've experienced so far using SO: some people answer questions to be helpful, others answers questions to get points. SO allows both behaviours.
This question had one answer when I found it. The answer already had 3 votes and it stated that "there is no such solution in STL or Boost". I spent 10-15 minutes going through the Boost documentation and found a solution and posted an answer. My solution could have been modified to be less verbose, which is what the author of the no-solution answer did, and gained additional votes. I feel I did the heavy lifting, yet the other guy gets more points. All he had to do was add his version to mine and delete his.
I actually don't care about the points. What bothers me is all the noise that's created when people answering questions do not cooperate with each other. Is this good enough reason to flag and ask for moderator attention? and will anything be done about it?
Edit: I was under the impression that Kenny was the original author of no-solution answer because that answer was deleted and there is no trace of it from my end. Sorry Kenny. Regardless, I think my answer could have been improved by a simple edit, otherwise it's nothing but noise.

Is there any special wisdom anyone can share re. using swish-e > to index frames webpages? Frames are a tricky situation when it comes to searching. It would be simple to make the spider fall frame links as well, but what happens on retrieval? SWISH would return the URL of the individual frame that contained what they were searching for and the user would see only that frame instead of the nicely constructed frameset you constructed. There might be a solution to that in some clever file layout and use of ReplaceRules. One idea is below. Another possibility would be to have a no frames version with identical content. SWISH can spider that currently. This also has the nice benefit of opening your site to non-frames aware browsers. Unfortunately, even frames aware browser would end up with the non-frames version when they search. So, going back to the clever layout/rewrite idea. Let's assume that swishspider can now follow frame links. Also assume you have a basic frame set with the left side as a table of contents and the right side with your various data pages. In order to do this, you'll need a main directory and one subdirectory for each page. The main directory contains index.html which defines your frameset and toc.html which is your table of contents. You have a series of directories called page1, page2, etc. inside of which you have page1.html, page2.html, etc. Also, each of these directories contains index.html. The different between this and the main index.html is the starting page for the right side; the main index.html points to page 1 where the one in the subdirectories points to their own page (page2/index.html has page2.html as the right hand side). For an example of this structure you can check out http://samiam.ckm.ucsf.edu/frame/ If you then introduce the rule: ReplaceRules remove "page[0-9]+.html" a search that gets ../pageN/pageN.html gets rewritten to ../pageN/ which preserves the frame set. More complicated use of frames would require even more thought, but it is a possibility. Are people interested in doing such a thing? Should I modify swishspider to be able to follow framelinks? moo ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Ron Klatchko - Manager, Advanced Technology Group UCSF Library and Center for Knowledge Management firstname.lastname@example.com on Fri Oct 16 12:13:04 1998

Should I reuse variables?
I know that many best practice say you should not do it, however later when different developer is debugging the code and have 3 variables that look a like and only difference is that they are created in different places in the code he might be confused. unit-testing is a great example of this.
However I do know that best practice are most of the time against it. For example they say not to "overide" method parameters.
Best practice are even are against nulling the previous variables (in Java there is Sonar that has warning when you assign null to variable that you don't need to do it to call garbage collector since Java6. you cant always control what warnings are turned off, most of the time the default is on)

I'm investigating Magento's infamous price block/
price.phtml file, and I've run into something that looks like a bug and/or abandoned code path, but I'd like to run it by the community first to make sure I understand what's happening.
Throughout this file, Magento will use the following method in conditional calls
$_weeeHelper->typeOfDisplay($_product, 0)
$_weeeHelper->typeOfDisplay($_product, 1)
$_weeeHelper->typeOfDisplay($_product, 4)
$_weeeHelper->typeOfDisplay($_product, 2)
From what my code tracing has gathered, this method (as called) ultimately compares the second paramater with one of two configuration values. Either
Tax -> Fixed Product Taxes -> Display Prices On Product View Page
Tax -> Fixed Product Taxes -> Display Prices In Product Lists
depending on the current context. If we're on a product page, it's the first. Otherwise, it assumes a product list page. (and "on a product page" means there's a value set in
This is all well and good except for the following call
$_weeeHelper->typeOfDisplay($_product, 4)
The only possible values for these configuration fields are 0 - 3. There is no "4".
So, first question: Does the above accurately describe the behavior of the
typeOfDisplay method? (assuming
null for the
$zone paramater)
Second question: If so, were there (or are there) versions of Magento where a value of "4" was stored in either the
Tax -> Fixed Product Taxes -> Display Prices In Product Lists
Tax -> Fixed Product Taxes -> Display Prices On Product View Page
