We live in a digital world. Technology has permeated nearly every facet of our personal and professional lives. Never has the threat been greater to our intellectual property, personal information, and critical infrastructure. Technology is being used to facilitate criminal activities and terrorist operations that span the globe. Billions of dollars in intellectual property is being stolen at an alarming rate. "Traditional" crimes such as murder, robbery, and burglary are also leaving digital evidence across a wide spectrum of technology. This technology includes mobile devices, networks, the Internet, and cloud computing platforms. The demand for digital forensics and information assurance specialists is extremely high. Unfortunately, there is also a severe shortage of trained professionals.
Marshall University stands ready to meet these challenges and help fill the void. The Digital Forensics and Information Assurance program offers a high quality education in a challenging, active learning environment. Our courses are taught by experienced faculty that put students first.
We offer three educational options:
Digital Forensics & Information Assurance will have a new, state-of-the-art computer lab in the Arthur Weisberg Family Applied Engineering Complex! The facility is slated to open in August 2015 and will be one of the largest academic buildings on Marshall's campus when completed. It will provide a home for many STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) programs, creating interdisciplinary and integrated learning environments that will foster collaborative research and inter-professional education.

For an early morning flight in a busy season, how long in advance should I arrive at Tromsø Airport in Tromsø, Norway? In detail, on 21 December there's a 6:55 flight (to Gran Canaria). There are other flights at 5:30, 5:55, 6:00, 6:40 and 6:45 (all domestic), then mine at 6:55, then none until 8:15. The first airport bus arrives at 5:45 (timetable 2012-10-28 – 2013-03-12. According to my ticket, check-in closes 45 minutes prior to departure. I will have luggage to check. Is a 5:45 arrival on a busy day at Tromsø airport on time to catch a 6:55 flight?
So your flight is an international flight.
The airport is fairly small, with just 5-6 restaurants, has wifi and opens officially at 4.30am in the morning.
To make sure, I'd always check the advice of the airport's website itself. In this case, the official Tromsø Airport website says:
On that advice, I'd try and get there at least a bit earlier - but would consider risking it if it was me. But understand that if you are late and weren't there 90 min beforehand, the airline is not likely to be sympathetic :(

2 possible bugs/issues with v184.108.40.206
I'm running this on Windows XP SP3.
ExtJS v4.1.1a commercial.
Quite possibly I just have something configured wrong...
Whenever I run "sencha app build", I get a new (empty) directory called "build" (one level above at the level of my application directory).
The "build" directory inside my application directory is created and populated correctly...it's just weird getting that extra "build" directory above.
The build "process" did not detect that I had an xtype=form, with standardSubmit = true.
Once I added 'Ext.form.action.StandardSubmit' to the requires array in the app.js, all was good...but I would have expected the process to detect it's requirement from the code.
Are these problems mine (configuration/understanding), or elsewhere?

#1 Is the build directory weird or the app name directory within the build directory? Remember you can have multiple workspaces now so I'm not too sure why it's weird.
#2 Cmd will auto-detect some things but not everything yet. It's a good rule of thumb that if the Ext JS class you are extending does not require it, you must. For your case, neither Ext.form.Panel and Ext.form.Basic require Ext.form.action.StandardSubmit so you must.Mitchell Simoens @LikelyMitch

I'm using the default "build" directory name: build.
The app name is "Locator".
I checked two other projects that I've been working on, and it's not happening there.
The only thing I note that's different is that the Eclipse project name & main folder has underscores "_" in the folder name.
Understood. It just means that we need to remember to test every single part of the UI after a code change to be sure we've confirmed that all library code we need has been added.
But, that's reasonable.

I appear to have tracked down where the issue is:

24 Catholic Schools to Close
Falling Enrollment Prompts Decision
Two dozen Roman Catholic schools in New York learned Tuesday they would permanently shut their doors at the end of the school year, in what the church said it hopes is the last round of closings for the foreseeable future.
The Archdiocese of New York will close 22 elementary schools throughout its jurisdiction, which includes Manhattan, the Bronx, Staten Island and seven other counties. The closures will affect more than 4,300 students, or about 9% of the elementary schools' enrollment. Two high schools with 424 students will also be closed, officials said.
The announcement is the latest blow to an educational network that has been reeling from dwindling enrollment in recent years, even as it maintains enviable academic standards. The closings have been planned for years as part of a massive restructuring intended to stabilize the remaining Archdiocese schools and make the system sustainable for future generations.
But like any amputations undertaken to survive, the cost has been high: The new closings come on top of shuttering 26 elementary schools and four high schools in 2011. Under Edward Cardinal Egan, 37 schools were closed between 2000 and 2009.
"It's painful to go through this exercise," said Timothy McNiff, superintendent of schools for the Archdiocese of New York. "These parents love these schools, and it's hard to have to tell them that 100 years of tradition at that community is now not going to [continue]."
Mr. McNiff said the closures are necessary for the long-term viability of the school system, which saw enrollment decline by more than 25,000 students since 2003.
Still, the decision came as a shock to some schools. Many had been scrambling to raise funds and develop plans to prove they could remain viable.
"I am very upset by the decision," said Sister Mary Cleary, who served as principal of Our Lady of Angels School in the Kingsbridge section of the Bronx for 27 years. She said the school—which opened in 1928—had raised $237,000 from alumni and parents, including a recent $100,000 gift.
Enrollment had fallen to 234 students this year, from a peak of around 450, she said. Still, generations of alumni had returned in recent weeks to offer support.
"We had really worked very hard on the plan and hard on our fundraising," said Sister Cleary, who said she was informed of the decision Tuesday morning. "It took us a little by surprise that we were not going to be allowed to remain open."
The closings were part of a multiyear plan to reorganize the Archdiocese's educational system, which will be left with 173 elementary schools and 48 high schools next year. The strategy relies on grouping schools into a series of districts; taxing parishes to support schools; and selling or leasing school real estate. It also included a final consolidation intended to whittle down the number of schools to a solid base.
Mr. McNiff said he hopes this will stem the seemingly endless announcements of Catholic school closures.
"We have a game plan where we can hold the line and sustain these schools going forward," he said. "Can we give absolute guarantees? No."
The future for three other schools remains up in the air, including two on superstorm Sandy-ravaged Staten Island that need extra time to assess their needs. The future of St. Barnabas High School in the Bronx is also under discussion, he said. Four schools that were on a potential list for closure released in November will stay open, Mr. McNiff said.
The Catholic-school closures are similar to those undertaken in suburban towns wrestling with under-enrollment—but very different from school closures conducted by New York City for poor academic performance. Students at Catholic elementary schools routinely exceed the New York state averages in English and math tests.
That was little consolation for parents who received the news Tuesday morning.
"I'm just completely devastated because the teachers know us, this is a good school, and we feel safe here," said Lisa Colon, 41 years old, as she dropped off her 5-year-old son at Holy Spirit School in the Bronx, which is slated to close. "For me to go somewhere else is completely unacceptable."
"They're going to leave a lot of parents struggling," she added.
In upper Manhattan, parent Gary Gutierrez dropped his three children off at Annunciation School on Tuesday.
"It's sad. My son has been in this school seven years," said Mr. Gutierrez. "I don't want it to close."
Mr. McNiff said counselors would help families find new Catholic schools, including offering transportation assistance and financial aid if necessary. Field trips will be arranged so prospective students can shadow other students to get a feel for a school, he said.
"Whatever the family's needs are, we will be there to help them with it," he said.
Families weren't the only ones seeking answers. Overall, 327 teachers will be affected by the closings. They will be given priority hiring as new positions open up in accordance with the union contract, said an archdiocese spokeswoman.
In addition to closings, the church is also pursuing new revenue strategies, officials said. The Archdiocese estimates it will raise about $20 million annually by introducing a new tax on parishes and selling old school buildings to build an endowment, or renting them out.
Archdiocese officials are pushing for Albany to pass a voucher-like program that would allow businesses to get tax credits for providing scholarships for students that could be used at parochial schools. States such as Florida and Pennsylvania have successfully used that kind of program, while a similar bill supported by Gov. Chris Christie has been blocked in New Jersey.
The church is also fighting for about $30 million that it says it is owed by Albany in reimbursements for certain state requirements, such as administering state tests and reporting student data.
"We have a game plan that can work and that will be successful," Mr. McNiff said. "And if we work it, we're not going to be closing schools going forward."

After a fast often people get sick when they eat. What type of food or drink is the best way to break the fast and avoid becoming ill?
Sign up
- Anybody can ask a question
- Anybody can answer
- The best answers are voted up and rise to the top
A person should eat light foods slowly. I often take a break while eating so as to space the food out.
The first thing I do is drink a large cup of water, and then wait. At least 5 minutes, 15 is better.
Usually after a fast you need water more than food, and by not eating you let the water absorb better. If you are feeling really weak, then also drink some (like 1/4 cup) grape or orange juice, to give some carbs with the water.
After waiting I have cake or any other carb, but not a protein. Along with juice or soymilk (again a carb - I would not do milk personally). But not too much!!! Not even enough for you to feel full. Grapes are good too - they are both water and carbs.
Let that digest for a while, half hour to an hour. Then you can eat a regular meal.
Note that the acidity of the orange juice may not agree with some people, you'll have to see how it works for you.
I know a family that breaks its fast on coffee and dry cereal. Some of them also have light cake (like sponge cake, not a brownie or anything with cream) or orange juice. This kind of food is chosen specifically because of the considerations mentioned in the question: that heavier food would make them sick.
That said, I have no reason to think it's the best way to break a fast, which is what the question asks for.

Cultivating our bewitchment
WASHINGTON — Even Jonathan Swift, who said promises and pie crusts are made to be broken, might have marveled at the limited shelf life of President Obama's promise of a "balanced" deficit-reduction plan — substantial spending cuts to accompany revenue increases. Obama made short shrift of that promise when he demanded $1.6 trillion in immediate tax increases and mostly unspecified domestic cuts. He also promised to cut $800 billion from 10 years of war spending that will end in two years, which is like "cutting" $800 billion by deciding not to build a ski resort on Mars.
Year after year, the Democratic-controlled Senate, ignoring the law, refuses to pass budgets. Year after year, Washington, D.C., makes big government cheap by charging Americans only $6 for every $10 of government services, borrowing the difference. And the biggest purchaser of U.S. government debt is not China but ... the U.S. government, largely through the Federal Reserve. Yet what supposedly is horrifying is a sequester that would cut less than 3 percent of federal spending over the next decade?

The 7 Crappiest 'Super Heroes' In Comic Book History
#3. The Whizzer
Whizzer is one of the earliest Marvel characters created and, to prove we're not shitting you, we are simply going to copy and paste his actual origin story, courtesy of Wikipedia:
"The origin of the Golden Age character begins while Robert Frank is on a trip to Africa with his father, Dr. Emil Frank, where Robert is bitten by a cobra. Dr. Frank saves Robert by a transfusion of mongoose blood, and soon discovers that he has developed super-speed."
What Went Wrong?
You need to know right now, or at least before you try to go camping, that blood transfusions are not a cure for cobra bites as far as modern science is concerned. Not even with mongoose blood. Especially not with mongoose blood.
But aside from that, his entire origin story seems like it was created by filling in a mad-libs page.
Robert Frank is on a trip to ________, where he is _______ by a ________. Dr. Frank saves his live by a transfusion of __________.
Seriously, take that to a ten year-old kid and have him fill it in, he'll wind up with a story that makes more sense than theirs. Don't fill it in yourself, you'll just wind up writing in "boobies" four times.
With that out of the way, let's take a closer look at the costume:
No, we are not sure if it's Whizzer talking here, or the cartoon chicken on his helmet. We like to think it's the chicken.
Is there anything going in favor of this guy? Well, no. We're pretty sure that even in the era when the character was written, "whizzer" was slang for "pisser." But we're thinking even a superhero who uses a magical stream of urine to thwart crime would be substantially less retarded than this guy.
#2. The Elongated Man
Ralph Dibny was a regular guy who invented a secret formula that made his body super-elastic. So yeah, he was pretty much a Plastic Man rip-off. So much that his creator admitted he created him only because he was not aware DC comics had actually bought the rights for Plastic Man a few years earlier and there was no need to make up another one.
Wait, it gets sadder.
What Went Wrong?
Young Ralph was a big fan of circus rubber men and wanted nothing more than to be like them. We guess this is like a girl being a very big fan of bearded ladies, in which case testosterone injections might help; but Ralph was not so lucky so he had to research his own way to reach the glamorous world of circus freakdom.
And research he did! Ralph discovered that all the rubber-men in the world drank a soda called Gingold. Yes, all of them; he went around the world and asked them.
So apparently there is this commercial soda being sold around the world that gives elasticity powers and only a few people have noticed that? Apparently Gingold is only drunk by circus freaks and other outcasts of society, like RC cola.
Using the gingold fruit, Ralph managed to make a super concentrated version of the soda and gave himself elasticity powers becoming the Elongated Man we all know and love; or at least know.
No, it isn't.
While The Whizzer's origin story is a dragon-punch right in the balls of science, it at least involves a cobra bite and bleeding that poor mongoose to death, so it's kind of hard core. Elongated Man's story, on the other hand, involves a kid with a sad obsession with freak shows and a beverage badly in need of a recall.
What could possibly be stupider than that? Just wait...
#1. The Black Condor
Thomas Wright was a Senator of the United States; who when not doing whatever the hell it is that Senators do, dressed in the manner of an exotic male prostitute to fight crime and Nazis as the amazing Black Condor. Yes, he was one of the many, many superheroes from around World War II who nobody remembers (or in this case, perhaps repressed the memory).
What Went Wrong?
Do please sit down, because this one is a doozy. Little Richard Grey was born in Mongolia during a scientific expedition his parents were members of. The expedition was attacked by bandits and everyone died except for baby Richard, who was later found and raised by condors. If huge carrion eating birds don't know how to raise a baby, then who does?
Not bad for a bird that doesn't even live in Mongolia, or anywhere near Asia for that matter.
By the way, did we mention that the condors taught him how to fly? Yes, apparently being raised by birds means you can slap aerodynamics in the face. If you were a comic book writer back in those days working for peanuts, you wouldn't give a rat's ass what you put on the page either.
Richard was later found by an old hermit who taught him how to speak and sent him back to America, where Richard found his next conceptual victim: Democracy.
Richard uncovered a plot to assassinate U.S. Senator Thomas Wright. Since Richard only has the power to fly and possibly also the power to eat rotten dead things, he tried to save the guy's life and failed miserably. But every murderous cloud has a silver lining. Richard stole Wright's identity and that's how a barely literate orphan raised by birds and a crazy old man in the desert became a senator.
We understand that during World War II, America needed heroes, and you could say that even completely nonsensical and shitty heroes like the Black Condor were better than nothing. You could say that, but you'd be wrong. We don't think we're stepping out of line here when we say that a world ruled by the Fascists would probably have still been better than a world governed by undercover super-powered feral bird men.

I was wondering if it was possible to project a magnified image on a wall without the need of focusing, so just by dimensioning the lenses right.
I know I have to use the principal of Maxwellian View for the illumination of the slide. However, there are a lot of parameters left and I can design a system that requires a very minimal (say 1mm) displacement of the projection lens when projecting on 0.5m and, say, 2.5m. However, I was wondering if I oversee something here. I've seen that it is possible however I was also wondering if some special kind of lens is needed here.

A Poisson Manifold is a real manifold $M$ along with a Lie bracket $[\cdot,\cdot]$ on $C^\infty(M)$ which is a derivation in each variable. Poisson manifolds are interesting for a few reasons, among them:
- You can define the notion of an integrable system structure on a Poisson manifold, which allows them to be applied to solving problems in physics with enough symmetry.
- Every symplectic manifold is automatically Poisson
- Any Poisson manifold has a foliation by symplectic leaves.
(Reference for all of this: anything on Poisson manifolds, in particular, wikipedia.)
Now, I've seen people seriously (for instance, in Vanhaecke's book) extend this notion to affine varieties over $\mathbb{C}$, where being Poisson means that the structure sheaf is a sheaf of Poisson Algebras, specifically, a Poisson algebra is an associative algebra along with a Lie bracket that is a derivation in each variable.
Now, what I'm interested in is how far this can be generalized and still have something where there are interesting (new!) examples. For instance, is "Poisson Scheme $X$ over $S$" a real object of interest? Specifically, I'm wondering if there are any examples where $S$ is not the spectrum of a field of characteristic zero, say $S$ is a finite field, or something positive dimensional, or nonreduced, etc, and if there are examples of this form, what makes them interesting? For instance, one reason that Poisson manifolds are interesting is that they are applicable to physics and, in fact in many cases to problems related to the geometry of the moduli space of vector bundles on a Riemann surface.

Suppose hypothetically that one out of every 200 people or so is a jerk. In today's world these jerks will discover that if they enter government or business they can become super rich and powerful jerks. Do we conclude, therefore, that markets (or government) have caused greed? No, the fact is that once we no longer live in tiny tribes of 200, anonymity allows some people, who would have been assholes in a small tribe but who would have been sanctioned there, to go off and become jerks on a much, much larger scale.Technology, including Zaadz, will allow us to evade the jerks far more than we could before. The technology-based social responsibility movement, broadly construed, will allow us to return to some extent to the moral monitoring of small villages.

I downloaded the Ubuntu ISO, burned it to a disk and rebooted my computer to run Wubi. My first issue was that before the Wubi options came up, it said Error: Prefix not set.
I tried the second option (Install Ubuntu), but that kept giving me a black screen, where nothing was happening, so I manually restarted my computer. I then went into the first option (Try Ubuntu without installing), and from there chose the Install Ubuntu program.
However, now that it's installed (and my C:\ drive has been shrunk), the Windows bootloader doesn't come up to give me the option of booting into Ubuntu.
Any ideas?
Also, I'm running Windows 7, 64 bit.
EDIT: It doesn't show Ubuntu as being installed in Add/Remove programs, but my C:\ drive has definitely shrunk. There's also no C:\Ubuntu. I'm starting to think it didn't get installed or something. Is there a way to reclaim the space into my C:\ drive and restart the installation?
EDIT2: Apparently it created a partition? Here's what disk manager says: http://files.droplr.com/files_production/acc_1820/pKhU?AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAJSVQN3Z4K7MT5U2A&Expires=1338226683&Signature=JR2w%2FzC023uCFMqCE407EVRrfuU%3D&response-content-disposition=inline%3B+filename%3D%22Screenshot+on+5.29.2012+at+1.36.58+AM.png%22

pretty straight forward. in the pic below everything is aligned to the left: for each row, label is on the left of the button text and toggle are aligned to the left within the respective columns
I just want everything to be the opposite...
unfortunatly, there are several issues when trying to set the css direction property on the fieldset to rtl. most annoying is that the toggle button itself does not move to the correct place. see pic
is there a way to bypass this?

Hello gkatz,
My self also want to achieve same thing.
I converted everything to RTL mode, but facing issue in toggle, can you please suggest what changes exactly we need to make toggle work in RTL mode.
Thanks in advance.

Stewie, the world's longest cat, dies in Nevada
Posted at: 02/05/2013 9:38 PM
By SCOTT SONNER
(AP) RENO, Nev. - Stewie the Cat, the longest domestic cat in the world at more than 4 feet long from nose to tail, has died.
Stewie was surrounded by family when he succumbed to a yearlong battle with cancer Monday evening at his Reno home, owner Robin Hendrickson said Tuesday. He was 8.
Guinness World Records declared Stewie the record-holder in August 2010, measuring 48.5 inches from the tip of his nose to the tip of his tail.
Hundreds of fans flooded Stewie's Facebook site with memories and condolences Tuesday. The Maine Coon cat was a certified therapy animal that frequently visited a Reno senior center and helped promote animal welfare awareness with the Nevada Humane Society.
"Stewie was always very social and loved meeting new people," Hendrickson said. "He has touched many lives, and for that I am grateful."
Stewie's full name was Mymains Stewart Gilligan. Hendrickson bought him from a breeder in Hermiston, Oregon, in 2005. Last month, he attended the International Cat Show in Portland, Oregon.
"He did really well at the show, even though he wasn't feeling totally perfect," said Stewie's breeder, Valerie Horton, who also serves as the show's entry clerk. "He loved being there because he loved the public. He always did."
Horton said Maine Coons are the largest domestic breed of cats. She's been raising them since 1980.
"It's the luck of the draw," Horton said. "We mostly breed for type and temperament, and then hope for the size. Stewie's father came from some very large cats."
Guinness World Records officials did not immediately respond to inquiries about a successor to Stewie's record. The previous record-holder, Leo, a 48-inch-long Maine Coon owned by Frieda Ireland of Chicago, died several years ago.
Stewie was diagnosed in early 2012 with Lymphosarcoma, a malignant disease of the lymphoid tissues. He responded successfully to chemotherapy and was declared cancer-free, but the remission period was brief, and a vet recently found another, more aggressive tumor on his kidneys, Hendrickson said.
"I knew that although we could fight it, the end was near and so I wanted to simply make him comfortable and let him enjoy the time he did have," she said.

I have an application where I want to be able to send an encrypted file, and then mete out "keys" that allow the receipient to decrypt the file from a certain point to the end of the file. Actually, it's from a certain point to the beginning, and I'm doing the above by reversing the file.
Looking at AES (and thus Rijandel) and all of the available block modes, it needs the key to decrypt every block, and so releasing this would allow the receipient to decrypt the entire file. Not useable.
However, if I was to make the Key public, much like the IV or a Salt is usually public, and instead mete out the IV necessary to decrypt block N through the end, then that would give me the functionality I need, since theoretically the IV in a mid-stream block does not let you derive the IV for previous blocks, but only subsequent blocks.
So, the question is, how less secure is AES if I switch the Key and IV around as inputs to the block cipher?

Butler Community College of Andover art appreciation instructor Jim Gross attended a memorial tribute for Thomas M. Messer, third director of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York City on Monday, September 16. Gross was an invited guest.
The program, which took place in the Peter B. Lewis Theater in the museum, featured speakers such as former Guggenheim director Lisa Dennison and current museum director Richard Armstrong. American classical pianist Simone Dinnerstein provided a musical interlude during the program.
"Many Butler students in art appreciation classes with Jim Gross do not realize that not only has Jim been teaching at Butler for about 14 years, but that Jim is an internationally recognized modern artist with a career spanning 30 plus years and exhibitions from Paris, London, Washington DC, New York, Wichita and El Dorado," Butler Dean of Fine Arts and Communication Dr. Jay Moorman said.

We are starting to build a data warehouse system using SQL Server 2008 R2. One of the senior DBAs told us to consider using a startup parameter -E for the SQL Server service. I read from Books Online that:
-E: Increases the number of extents that are allocated for each file in a filegroup. This option may be helpful for data warehouse applications that have a limited number of users running index or data scans. It should not be used in other applications because it might adversely affect performance. This option is not supported in 32-bit releases of SQL Server.
My question is how does this parameter help index and data scans? Should we use this parameter if there is a possibility that there are other databases (possibly in operative role) in the same instance?

Hamann Cyrano Porsche Panamera 2012
Ever since it has been unveiled by its creators the Porsche Panamera has been received with a mixed bag of opinions. One thing is certain, the four-door coupe is one of the most powerful cars in its segment, but it's also considered to be the less aesthetically pleasing. That being said, during the past few years the Panamera has been an interesting starting point for major tuning companies out there, including Mansory that didn't really helped Panamera's case. Now, Hamann steps forward and unveils their take on this controversial luxurious sports car with the Hamann Cyrano Porsche Panamera 2012.

I have read in many guides that before flashing, we need to have a custom recovery like CWM installed. I am not able to understand why is this a prerequisite for flashing a custom ROM. Can I flash a ROM without custom recovery?
Stock recoveries usually check the update.zip file being flashed for a specific signature that is only known by device's manufacturer and/or carrier. You cannot therefore flash custom ROMs on stock recoveries, hence the need for a custom recovery which bypasses said check.
Technically, it's not prerequisite, but convenience.
You can download an update using your handset and store it locally on the sdcard, then reboot manually into recovery. Or use Rom Manager to do all that in an app and enjoy backup/restore and OTA updating without the need for a computer.
Stock recoveries won't let you do all the fancy stuff that a custom recovery let's you do.
Among them are:
Some handset makers have their own means of low level access to flash. Fastboot then has not all needed commands built in.

Lower Mountain Fork River Habitat Enhancement
Tailraces often lack suitable fish habitat due to reduced inputs of sediment
and woody debris coupled with frequent scouring flows. These habitat
deficiencies have significant impacts on fish populations and subsequent
management of tailrace fisheries. For example, reductions in usable area limits
the amount of productive stream for anglers because fish are concentrated in few
suitable areas. Fish movement and dispersion is also limited because necessary
habitat is not available throughout the stream continuum. The absence of
overhead cover increases fish susceptibility to predation and warming of stream
water. Further, the lack of hydraulic checks limit flow dynamics and
flow-related habitat alternatives necessary for fish feeding, resting and
Similar to other tailrace fisheries, the lower Mountain Fork River trout fishery in McCurtain County, Oklahoma is characterized by the habitat limitations described above. Significant habitat improvements within this stream are necessary to improve physical and hydraulic habitat conditions and the angling potential of the system.
In-stream habitat enhancement techniques using native materials can improve habitat deficient streams by providing dynamic and suitable conditions for fish. Depending on stream type and bed materials, a variety of structures may be used to improve habitat quality and availability. Some of the structures appropriate for use in the lower Mountain Fork River include check dams, weirs, log and rock veins, cross veins, boulder clusters and flow constrictors. All of these structures improve hydraulic characteristics within the channel as a dynamic mix of current vectors, eddies and slack water are formed from their interaction with flow.
For example, check dams deepen shallow reaches of stream above the structure by impounding water and below by creating plunge pools. Useable area increases longitudinally while fish movement potential is maintained.
Weirs increase habitat quality, diversity and availability across the channel cross-section. Advanced weir designs enable adjacent positioning of pool and riffle habitat which increases hydraulic diversity, cover and carrying capacity.
Log and rock vanes stabilize laterally eroding banks, restore natural channel geometry and increase trout habitat. This occurs by decreasing erosional sediment supply and facilitating hydraulic creation of small scour holes associated with the end of vanes which provide deeper refuges for trout.
Cross vanes reduce stream bank erosion and retain proper channel width to depth ratios regardless of discharge by continuously placing the deepest portion of the channel in the center of the stream. Deepened stream reaches created by these structures significantly increase fish carrying capacity and movement potential.
Boulder clusters offer hydraulic relief from water current and strategic feeding zones for fish.
Lastly, flow constrictors decrease width to depth ratio which creates deeper channels with higher carrying capacity, movement and refuge benefits.
The completion of a habitat enhancement project requires many steps. First, on-site stream survey techniques are used to choose strategic areas for fish habitat improvements. Next, the proposed structures are designed using standard stream rehabilitation and in-stream habitat improvement protocols. Necessary permits covering the scope of work are then acquired prior to beginning work. Project funding is then solicited and, after these steps are complete, the work to improve the stream can begin.

Check out this screen shot directly from Google analytics of one of my websites:
As you can see, this site did $84,301.50 in sales last month. Which is on the low side for this site, often times sales are coser to $100K, netting me a great income and a dream lifestyle.
But here's the best part. The strategies I used were almost 100% organic and natural. No big advertising budget. No "special insider knowledge" or tricks, just normal, every day stuff that ANYBODY can do on any site, if they just know how.
"Within a few weeks of using Social Marketing Blackbox I made an extra $1,000 from what they did!" -Angela Barrus Life Coach & Clinical Hypnotherapist www.angelabarrus.com
But… and this is a BIG "but," the social strategies I use on that site and all my other sites require a team effort.
It's sad, but the days of the "little guy" making it big online are about over. If a niche is worth it's salt, the big dogs are going to find it sooner or later, and it will become a dog fight.
Why? Because if a niche makes money, there's so many talented marketers in the US, Canada, Australia, China, Russia, India, and Europe, that sooner or later one of them, with a bigger, better, badder team, is going to find your little niche and beat you at your game.
So what do you do? Well, YOU need a great team on your side. Let me be specific, you need MY team. The same team I used to build the income you see above. The same team that helped other marketers generate over $150,000,000 in revenue the last few years. The same graphic designers, social marketing pros, and development experts that, frankly, have made me rich, and can do the same for you.
So what is Blackbox Marketing?
"Blackbox marketing" is based on a scientific principle, that if you had "Black Box," that did whatever you needed done, no matter how complex, you could put your input in one side, get the desired output out the other side, and not know or care how it happened. Just make a request, and get what you want.
Social marketing can be that way. As a matter of fact, without a team behind you, you simply could not get everything done in a day, you could never compete with the big teams that are either now, or soon going to be entering your space.
You see, social marketing isn't something you can really "outsource" well. Ask any company that's tried it. Here's how it works. You hire some social marketing firm to do your social marketing. They have some eight dollar an hour employee post generic stuff to your Facebook page, Twitter stream, Google Plus… whatever. And then they send you a great report on how much work they did… but you check your analytics and guess what? NOTHING.
It's a stupid strategy really. Why? Because nobody can share your story like you can! You simply can't "outsource" your heart and soul, your KNOWLEDGE, your PASSION, your product savvy, etc.
See, a GOOD social marketing strategy is based on high quality content, going out in different forms, to all the right places, on a regular basis.
That's why so few people can do it! It's too much work! It takes creativity, work, and expertise in all of the following areas:
- Graphic design
- Powerpoint presentations
- Video marketing
- Twitter marketing
- Podcasting
- Facebook marketing
- Press Relase distribution
….and many other disciplines. And not just once, but over and over!
But here's what we do for you. Imagine if all you had to do was the thing you love most, the thing you are passionate and good at? Well, that's what the Social Marketing Blackbox offers!
All you have to do is come up with a good ideas. That's the heart and soul of social marketing. And let's face it, you have them every day. Whether its an idea on how your product works, what benefits it provides, ideas on it's use, whatever! Any and all good ideas you have about your product or business can be turned into amazing social marketing content- but not by you, by us!

"In the last 10 years I have worked with many top marketers, including Anik Singal, Joe Vitale, Bob Proctor and atleast 300+ top marketers, and Dave Sherwin is as good as any. He doesn't just make money on "Product launches," and I personally know that his sites bring in thousands of dollars every day ( and I know a lot of guru's who could never achieve this rare feat ). In my opinion, he is one of the best marketers online today." -Venkata Ramana, Hyderabad, India

The book really is worth thousands per copy. But obviously, that's a tough sell. So for the longest time I decided I would sell if for just $197, so it was affordable.
But recently I have been doing guest lecturing at local Universities, and had poor students flocking around me at the end of classes, asking questions and begging more info, and several of these are really serious about creating a lifestyle like I have. They have ambition, great ideas, but no money. So for them, and anybody else who has very little money but a lot of heart and ambition, I have decided to sell the book for the measly sum of $17.

The Warren County fiscal court voted to upgrade some of the Sheriff's equipment today.
It's not about new vehicles or weapons, but officials say the investment is sure to arm the department with tools to keep you safe. In an emergency, time is often the greatest factor in safety.
The Warren County Sheriff's Department says it will be able to answer your 911 calls much faster thanks to a new dispatch system. The current system doesn't allow area law enforcement agencies to view one another's databases, but that's about to change.
"We'll be able to see each other's records as far as prior contact, and officer cautions on addresses and vehicles and people, where as now it takes two or three times longer than it will with the new system," said Warren County Sheriff Support Services Manager Stephen Harmon.
The connected databases aren't the only time-saving upgrade.
"The automatic vehicle locator, which will be on each patrol car. Which will allow us on 'in progress' calls to send the closest unit to that call by GPS," said Harmon.
The city and county have teamed up in hopes both can benefit from the sharing of information.
"The city of Bowling Green has provided the server, and we bought the system and are partnering with them," said Warren County Judge Executive Mike Buchanon.
"In a moment's notice, to be able to look into information that another agency has. We'd like for them to be able to do that with us as well," said Bowling Green Police Public Information Ofc. Ronnie Ward.
Using the city's server has more perks than just safety for both sides.
"We can help each other on the cost factor to make it cheaper for the taxpayers." said Ward.
The Warren County Fiscal Court approved the purchase of the hardware for the system today. It comes with a price tag of about $54,000. A price Buchanon says was low thanks to the partnership.
The Warren County Sheriff's Department says it hopes to have the new dispatch system operating by this summer.

I don't understand an equation I am reading in my notes:
Suppose, $|\cdot |$ is a nonarchimedean absolute value on a field $K$ complete wrt this absolute value. Suppose, $|a_0|>|a_i|$ for all $i>0$. Then, $|a_0+a_1+a_2+...|=|a_0|$. I understand that $|a_0+a_1+a_2+...|\leq max\{|a_i|:i\geq 0\}=|a_0|$ by ultrametric inequality. I am not sure how to get the reverse inequality.

Could anyone help me with finding the difference between saying "catch a bus/train/etc" and "take a train/bus/etc"? I'm afraid I haven't been able to glean one from my dictionary.

Catching a bus describes the process of getting to a stop/station, waiting and boarding.
Taking a bus describes the entire process, including the journey itself.
Much of the time, the distinction isn't important. For example:
However, it could be relevant:
It is a similar meaning to catch as catching a fish, or catching a ball. You and the bus are apart, and then you bring yourself into contact with it through your own effort. If you try to catch a bus, and fail, you miss it.
One other thing, you catch a bus at a specific place:
But you take the bus from a place:
In American English, "take" is usually premeditated -- you made plans to be at the stop at such-and-such time, bought a ticket in advance, etc. "Catch" has more of an "in the moment" sense -- you had started to walk to work but caught a bus that was going by, for example.
For British English, see the comment from @slim.
The sixth definition of the verb catch is listed as: to be in time to get aboard a train, boat, etc.
Whereas for the verb take you have to make your way down to definitions number 46 and 47 to read:
You can either catch or take the:
These means of public transport will stop and pick up passengers waiting at a platform, bus stop, harbour, port or at an airport gate. To catch also evokes the image of a person running towards that stop, platform etc. in order to board the transport.
Until the 1980s many of London's double-decker buses —Routemasters—, had an open rear platform with a sturdy pole attached that allowed passengers to "hop-on" and "hop-off". It was a common spectacle to see people running and grabbing hold of the pole as the bus moved away from the stop. Therefore, literally catching the bus at that moment. The last Routemasters were withdrawn from regular service in December 2005.
You take the:
The above are not usually considered means of public transport as these vehicles do not stop at specific locations to pick up passengers. However, some speakers might say "catch a taxi" in place of the idiom hail a taxi, which I believe, is becoming rare.
"To catch the bus" originated from the original method of hopping onto a moving bus. You had to "catch" the bar and running board of the bus in order to ride it. Circa 1920.
The meaning common to "catch" and "take" in these idiom is "travel by". And there is very little difference. If there is one, it's in the tone. "Take" implies you have control over the mode of transportation; "catch" implies you have to fit your schedule to it. So if you were writing fictional dialog, a more dynamic character might "take" whereas a more passive character might "catch".

Many times, while I know the hard rules of Shadowrun, I fail to put together a good combat that can be clearly described to the players. When initiative is rolled, we calculate our phases and then movement (base movement divided by the number of phases in the turn). But while I like the Mind's Theater aspect of combat in Shadowrun, I get too many requests to pull out a battle map, which becomes cumbersome to draw out with the scale that I need.
I'm wondering if anyone here has had similar problems and if there are good ways of dealing with tactical combat and movement in Shadowrun. Is a battlemat good, or is it better to you imagination?

Every budget is a balance of resources and needs, guided by obligations and priorities. With this document, the budget for New York University's Washington Square Campus, we are sharing with you the key elements of our budget for fiscal 2010, and the needs, priorities, and external economic forces that shaped it.
The operating budget for fiscal 2010 (which covers the period September 1, 2009 to August 31, 2010) totals $2.064 billion. This budget includes all of NYU's schools and programs other than the School of Medicine and the NYU Langone Medical Center. Here are some highlights of the budget, including charts illustrating operating revenues and expenses and the capital budget.
In a national study of 522 private institutions' endowments at June 30, 2008, NYU's total endowment (including the School of Medicine) was the 21st largest in total size, but 184th in endowment per student (or $70,398 per student).
For fiscal 2009 (9/1/08 - 8/31/09), the return on the University's endowment was
-11.3%. This return was generated during an extremely difficult period, in which financial markets experienced stunning declines and major universities reported deep losses and liquidity concerns. Losses in the broad market indices were greater than NYU's - for example, the S&P 500 Index declined by 18.3% during this period. Over time, the University's endowment has been invested in a relatively conservative manner; the relative success in minimizing NYU's recent endowment losses can be attributed in significant part to the foresight of the investment committee of the Board of Trustees, which early on sensed the contours of the global financial crises and directed the University's assets be reallocated to reduce risk.
In the fall 2009 semester, the University employs 6,658 individuals in academic positions as full-time and part-time faculty members and researchers, and 5,206 individuals as full-time and part-time technical, clerical, service, and administrative employees. Between Fall 2008 and Fall 2009, the number of academic personnel increased by 5.0%, and technical, clerical, service, and administrative personnel declined by 4.7%. Slightly more than ½ of the decrease in technical, clerical, service and administrative headcount resulted from the transfer of positions from University employment to employment with a firm that provides building cleaning and maintenance services under contract to the University. In addition, throughout the fiscal year, the University will employ approximately 8,000 part-time graduate and undergraduate students.

Cmd doesn't execute your code so the Ext.Loader call is only used for developing. For Cmd, you need to edit the .sencha/app/sencha.cfg and add the paths to the app.classpath (it's a comma-delimited value)Mitchell Simoens @LikelyMitch

When skiers and boarders hear the term apres, they typically think of slope side decks, outdoor bars, goggle tanning, and half-dressed skiers fresh off the slopes. All that may be, but it isn't necessarily everything that apres means around the world.
Apres for many also means a place where riders gather after the ski boots come off, the nap has been taken, and they are up and looking for evening food and entertainment.
Known simply as a local Keystone watering hole and favorite spot for live music for more than three decades, the Snake River Saloon has now reached international acclaim with its ranking as one of the world's best apres ski joints by Skiing magazine.
How does one achieve such venerable status? Let's be honest: there are a lot of on-mountain bars in the world, not to mention how many there are in Summit County alone. Making it into the top 10 apres joints in the world is no small feat. Ranked right up there with the likes of the Chambre Neuf in Chamonix, France, the Mangy Moose in Jackson Hole, Wyo., Harrah's in Reno, Nev., and the parking lot behind the Denny's in White River Junction, Vt., the Snake River Saloon has now officially made the big time of international ski rag rankings.
"When the term apres is used with regard to the Snake River Saloon, I take it to mean the great live bands and dancing that we have been providing in Keystone for 36 years," said owner Jim Shields. "Sure we have drink specials like many bars, but I feel it's our consistent live music that makes us a great apres joint."
Known locally as 'the Snake,' this food and music venue has been around as long as most locals can even remember. Shields took over the Snake in 1976. The location was previously known as the Loveland Pass Bar, famous for its rowdy partying dating back more than 50 years.
Despite the plethora of apres options in Summit County, Skiing magazine stands behind its ranking. 'I wouldn't say there was any kind of rigorous polling process," said Skiing magazine assistant editor Kevin Luby, "...but we definitely stand behind its inclusion."
The magazine, Luby said, was looking for places that had a true local experience. "They were all places we've been to many times...people that have been around a long time. You're never going to see the Grand Summit at Beaver Creek, for example, on this list. We were looking for places that had a good atmosphere that really gel with our leadership and our personal preferences on cool places to hang out. I've certainly never had a bad time there."
People might consider that a mention like this in a national ski magazine would go to one's head. But that's not the case with Shields. In fact, he didn't even know the ranking existed until several weeks ago. "Nobody mentioned it until just last week," he said. And when asked if this will change his way of doing business, marketing strategy, or outlook? "No changes, we will just keep doing what we do.
"The Snake is just the kind of place to finish out a great day on the mountain," said Shields, who still owns and manages the saloon, along with wife Jane and longtime manager Carole Peoples. "Again, it's our evening live music and dancing that has made us special. We party during happy hour also, but it's our late night stuff that is really memorable."

For the 35th annual Wolfgang Friedmann Conference, the Columbia Society of International Law and the Journal of Transnational Law chose to examine one of the most complex and controversial legal issues of the day: the closing of the detention center at Guantanamo Bay, in Cuba. The daylong conference addressed the topic from a comparative international perspective and focused on how the United States should deal with detainees once held at Guantanamo.
"Columbia Law School has a very rich history in the laws of war, the laws of armed conflict," said Paul B. Simon '10, who organized the conference with Jantira Supawong '10. "For us, [the conference was about] both the relevancy of the topic today, and also creating that thread with the history of Columbia."
The event's first panel centered on lessons the United States can learn from the detention policies of Northern Ireland, India, and the Balkans. Other countries have "an awful lot to teach us, good, bad, and otherwise," said Professor Peter Rosenblum, the Lieff, Cabraser, Heimann & Bernstein Clinical Professor in Human Rights, who moderated the panel.
Experts participating in the day's final panel, moderated by Professor Matthew Waxman, examined how the U.S. should handle Guantanamo detainees. Hina Shamsi, a staff attorney with the ACLU's National Security Project and an adjunct professor at the Law School, argued that the detainees should be tried in federal court. "If there's evidence of wrongdoing, detainees should be charged in a federal court system," Shamsi said. "If there is no evidence, they should be released." To further support the call for federal prosecution of detainees, James Benjamin and Richard Zabel, both former federal prosecutors, presented evidence from their study on the effectiveness of federal courts in trying terrorism cases. They found that the system convicts terrorism suspects at a rate of about 90 percent. "That's not to say it's perfect, and that's not to say that it can work in every case," Benjamin said. "It really does depend on the evidence."

WACO (December 19, 2012)--Heart of Texas Goodwill Industries is hoping to cash in on the goodwill of the season through a new program aimed at getting customers in its thrift stores to donate one dollar to help teach struggling residents job skills.
Thrift store customers can donate $1 toward the program which offers computer classes, interview clothing, and other services for people looking for work.
This is especially important because starting this January three computer classes that are free right now will charge a fee.
These classes teach basic database management, Word and Excel 2007, and Workplace computer skills, which also offer continuing education credits through McLennan Community College.
The program will offer scholarships to those who cannot afford the fee, no matter how small.
"We just wanted to give people an opportunity to also continue to give back and we love when people shop in our stores. So, this gives them an opportunity to help fund someone in a very real and concrete way," HOT. Learning Center Coordinator, Meghan Holder said.
Customers who make donations get a piece of paper with their name on it to hang on the Christmas tree in the thrift store.

I'm trying to create a custom meta box with multiple text fields. The idea is that there is initially one text box, then you can click the button 'Add New' and a another text box is added (using Ajax; no need to publish or update the post for the text box to be created). I'm using the following code (below), but it just doesn't work. I'm completely stuck; really need some help. I'm even willing to donate some cash if anyone can help me figure this out.
If you end goal is to add text boxes dynamically, but still require the user to save/update the post, you don't need to use AJAX at all.
Just name the text fields appropriately so an array of values is POSTed, then handle it in your save action.
It may be helpful to save this array in a single post meta key, so you can just loop through it to output the meta box.
Give an ID to the enclosing <div>, something like 'slideshow_metabox'
Set your initial text boxes as so:
And change your 'add button' onclick to be:
Hope this helps.
Here's a script I wrote that I've used in 5-6 custom different types of meta boxes. I love having the add/remove fields option, makes things much faster since WP can be very slow when you save/publish posts, even tho it could just post to the admin-ajax.php file in the background and be much faster.

What is the opposite of free as in "free of charge" (when we speak about prices)?
We can add not for negation, but I am looking for a single word.
What is the opposite of free as in "free of charge" (when we speak about prices)?
We can add not for negation, but I am looking for a single word.
A person, animal or thing that is not free could be any of the following:
I just reread your question and realized I wasted my time writing all these answers, since you are only interested in the commercial case. Anything that is not free is simply not free or for sale. If you want no more than a single word, however, a few options are:
Paid would be my choice. There are free services and paid services. (The latter are services that are "paid for".)
You need to check if it suits your context, though. You have not mentioned the sentence where you would like to use it.
How about chargeable -- ie, you must pay if you want it.
Probably the closest is a two-word compound, for sale.
It would presuppose a commercial context, though, like free.
Ionized, that is having been dissociated into electrically charged atoms or molecules, is a suitable antonym for free of charge.
If you are seeking price-related antonyms, try expensive, pricy, costly.
Perhaps surprisingly, there isn't a common, general-purpose word in English to mean "that you have to pay for", "that incurs a fee".
Some options that are used depending on the circumstances:
Otherwise, it is common to use a phrase such as "admission charge applies", "subject to payment" etc.
If you're referring to a product, it's probably more common simply to use a phrase such as "which must be paid for".
The answers given thus far are great contributions since they raise the various ways that 'free' might be used and different antonyms for different situations.
I don't know that we've come up with a precise answer to the question. An example sentence would be really useful to show what you want the opposite of. Any word that can be used and interpreted in so many ways as free needs contextual background if we are to understand what you're asking for.
If I assume that you want to say the opposite of e.g. 'The popcorn is free of charge when you purchase a ticket', the opposite would be e.g. 'The popcorn comes at a cost', 'The popcorn isn't free', 'The popcorn cost $10', 'You have to pay for the popcorn' or, simply, 'The popcorn isn't free'. The statement, 'You can take your baby on the flight free of charge' would be in opposition to 'You have to pay to take your baby on a plane' or 'It's not free', or informally, 'You gotta pay for it'. To say something is not included (if, for example, popcorn weren't free of charge, even with ticket) one could say 'The popcorn is not included in the ticket price'.
I'm sorry that I haven't given you one particular word as you requested but I have given some examples by which you can effectively (and nicely) state that something is not free of charge without having to use a statement like 'The product is not free of charge'. There is nothing wrong with changing your choice of words slightly to convey the same sentiment. If we become too fixated on using a particular phrase it can detract from what we finally say. So rather than searching to find a perfect antonym, make use of all the other beautiful words we have which will get your point across.
In terms of price, cost is the opposite of free.
In terms of freedom, enslaved is the opposite of free.
Agree with Jimi that the most appropriate antonym for "free of charge" is "for sale." But, "purchased" or "priced" could work as the opposite of "free of charge." This book is free of charge. This book is priced. That dessert was free of charge. That dessert was purchased.
Its depends upon the usage, If as a Adjective, you can use the following,
If as a Verb, you can use the following,
fee-for-service is the term I would use.

This is a question from Jech's Set Theory (Ex. 17.12) which I'm reading at the moment and pretty much stuck on.
If $D$ is a normal measure on $\kappa$ and $\{ \aleph_\alpha \colon > 2^{\aleph_\alpha} \le > \aleph_{\alpha+\beta}\} \in D$ (for some constant $\beta < \kappa$), then $2^\kappa > \le \aleph_{\kappa + \beta}$
He gives the following hint: If $f$ is such that $f(\aleph_\alpha) = \aleph_{\alpha+\beta}$ for all $\alpha < \kappa$, then $[f]_D = (\aleph _{ \kappa+j(\beta)})^M$
I think that I am just confused about the whole representation in $M$ and how to use it to solve this problem. Hints, partial or complete solutions are most welcomed.

I've read mixed cases all over the place regarding the life of a typical hard drive, and if reformatting degrades the disk. If so, could you measure the life of the disk in a practical manner or explain how it can be damaged?
Reformatting any modern hard disk is no different from normal use of the same amount. You cannot actually lay down any track information. Modern hard drives are formatted at the factory using special connectors or special equipment. When you format a modern hard drive, at most you fill the drive with all zeros and maybe map out some sectors that were discovered to be bad.
You will not wear a hard disk out by reformatting any more than normal use will wear it out.
If you are talking about something extreme like continuously formatting a drive, this should be about the same as any continuous read/write access to the drive. You cannot degrade the magnetic medium in any way by doing this, as long as the drive is adequately cooled. A drive that runs at an extreme temperature will definitely have a degraded lifetime.
SSD drives are a different animal where each write gets you closer to eventual failure.
Measuring the life of a hard drive is like measuring the life of a light bulb.
Reformatting a magnetic hard disk should not degrade the disk any more than any other use of the drive. The drive may even notice and relocate bad sectors as the head has an opportunity to revisit rarely used portions of the platter, but if I wouldn't count on reformatting providing any benefit other than an empty filesystem.
From a drive's perspective there's no difference between writing data to a drive and formatting it. In general, many of the same physical sectors written to during a format will also be written often if you are using the filesystem heavily ("FAT" table, or equivalent, directory structures, etc.) For magnetic disks, I wouldn't worry about formatting as a possible contributory factor to drive failure. I've had experience with dozens of machines that have their main OS drives reformatted several times a day on overage over the course of 2+ years and show no signs of excess drive failure.
If it is not a SSD drive, on which there is a limit (far higher than it used to be, though), regular (a.k.a quick) formats to the drive usually don't erase data, altering only the sector dedicated to the FAT, causing "uneven" wear, if you like.
Practically, I have yet to encounter a single case of even a mention to this issue.
A typical "quick" format on a typical filesystem isn't a big deal - it only writes a few blocks.
