Product Description
From Publishers Weekly
Anderson flew P-51 Mustangs in the WW II European theater and shot down 17 German planes. Writing with freelancer Hamelin, he here relates his spectacular aerial confrontations with Messerschmitts and Focke-Wulfs, defines (in understandable technical detail) what "combat flying skill" really means and conveys the unique mindset a fighter pilot needs in order to survive. Anderson, who became an Air Force test pilot during the postwar "golden age of flight testing," recalls hair-raising incidents highlighting the challenge and risk of such work. After an onerous tour of desk-duty in Washington ("A colonel at the Pentagon is nothing but a glorified clerk"), he became one of the few fighter pilots to serve in combat both in WW II and Vietnam. This is an entertaining and instructive book for hardcore air combat buffs, who will find particularly interesting Anderson's comparisons between flying prop-driven Mustangs and high-performance jets in enemy skies.

From Library Journal
Anderson, a California farm boy who loved hot cars and airplanes, earned his wings in the Army Air Corps in September 1942 and flew P-39s. Sent to Europe in 1944, his squadron traded in their P-39s for P-51 Mustangs. Anderson flew 116 missions with the Mustang and shot down 17 enemy planes without receiving a single hit to his own plane. He also served in the Korean War and Vietnam, and as a test pilot. In the course of his 30-year career in the Air Force he was decorated 25 times. Hamelin, a sportswriter, does a highly credible job of telling Anderson's story. He skillfully interweaves anecdotes by men who flew with Anderson, such as fellow World War II section leader Chuck Yeager. Anderson's accounts of some of the projects he flew as a test pilot, as well as his candid remarks on the early space and high altitude programs give the reader an insider's view. An exceptional account of an exceptional man. Highly recommended. Photos not seen.

The chapters that focus on his World War II exploits are clearly the most interesting, although his post-war adventures (including missions in Vietnam) were entertaining in their own right. My only complaint is that he did not write more about this period of his life. It seemed that Yeager's book was a bit more balanced in that he covered his career from beginning to end with an even hand. Anderson (or his publisher) chose not to do so, and that is unfortunate, for I am sure there is much to be learned from this period of his remarkable life.
Despite these minor shortcomings, this one is definitely worth a look. The beginning may be slow to some, but keep going. It is well worth it.
The descriptions and events as a P-51 pilot flying in the ETO are first rate. The first chapter grabs hold of you and doesn't let go with his account of a high altitude duel with an ME-109. It is a classic. He describes many of his combat missions and describes his growing friendship with Chuck Yeager. The story of his final mission with Yeager is priceless.
The book also includes some revealing sections about his tedious days as a recruiter and several stints with the Pentagon to heady days as a Test Pilot at Wright Field and later at Edwards. He also gives us some excellent insights into his days as a Squadron Leader flying F-86's in Korea and a Wing Commander flying F-105's from Okinawa and Thailand during the Vietnam Conflict.
I had the opportunity recently to meet Col. Anderson and his lovely wife Ellie. We spent several hours together discussing his flying days. It was a real priviledge. He is truly a humble man but has that touch of steel of man who has lived through a lot. He is still a hearty and it's great to think of him still tearing up the skies at Air Shows flying the Old Crow along side Chuck Yeager.
I highly recommend "To Fly and Fight" to all WWII aviation enthusiasts.
I found this book to enlightning; refreshing; funny; sad; extrordinary; And written with a smooth tempo and hums along like the engine of a P-51 Mustang. The Book and the Man are unseperable. He takes you up in his Mustang with him through his rememberences. And brings you home to the runway just as a good pilot would do today. I would recommend this book to anyone who has not only an intrest in World War Two. But an intrest in a "Great Man" who lived an extrordinary life. Fighting for all of us; Flying for all of us. This man is a "TRUE"; American Hero.
Unlike Yeager, Anderson's tenure at flight test was not so glamorous. Instead of the sonic barrier, Anderson's experience included the "parasite-fighter", a fatally flawed idea for linking dimunitive fighters to larger motherships like the B-36 and typical of the "anything goes" atmosphere bred by cold-war demands and postwar prosperity.Read more ›

I was surprised today to see the Syndicate of Owners of Restaurants in Lebanon is now calling for a protest on Wednesday at Sodeco to amend the anti-smoking law (law 174) and make it "more fair". More fair as in allowing restaurants to apply for special permits to allow indoor smoking at their premises, and next thing you know everyone is getting a permit!
Check how pathetic the poster is, "Are you sick of having to smoke outside already ? Wait until winter starts…", that's how basically those restaurants owners are asking people to join their protest, and second-hand smoker at indoor places can of course fuck off!
What's even more rediculous is that they're calling the activisits who pushed for this law to be implemented as "a bunch of stupid people". In fact, for calling to amend such law, the Syndicate of Owners of Restaurants in Lebanon and the people advising them should be aware that they're actually a bunch of retards!

Concho Resources: Drilling Gushers On Wall Street

Concho's Mad Shale Oil Skills In The Permian's Delaware Basin
Jennifer Warren • 10 Comments
Jennifer Warren • 10 Comments
Wed, Jul. 13, 3:19 PM
- Whiting Petroleum (WLL -2.3%) is upgraded to Outperform from Neutral with a $14 price target, up from $13, at Credit Suisse, which says the stock's pullback following the recent debt swap has provided a compelling entry point.
- The firm says WLL's extensive inventory in the core of the Williston coupled with improving type curves from larger completions provide compelling near-term catalysts, as drilling activity should accelerate in 2017 at the latest; asset sales remain another key catalyst, with remaining assets on the block including North Ward Estes and the monetization of WLL's Williston Basin gas plants.
- Credit Suisse also sees strong upside potential for Concho Resources (CXO -1%), Pioneer Natural Resources (PXD -1.7%) and Newfield Exploration (NFX -1.1%) as well performance improves in the Permian and STACK.
- WLL and other oil companies are broadly lower after WTI crude fell below $45/bbl as EIA weekly storage data showed a surprise rise in stockpiles.
Tue, Jun. 7, 3:44 PM
- Seaport Global Securities upgrades a half-dozen energy E&P stocks - and downgrades two others - even after the group has rallied YTD, saying it is "willing to overlook higher leverage as long as the operational trajectory is notably improving."
- Noble Energy (NBL +4.2%) and Eclipse Resources (ECR +5.5%) are upgraded to Buy from Neutral, as NBL boasts "strong growth and cheap valuation relative to peers" and ERC is "among the cheapest NE gas names while offering good compression in out-year multiples."
- Seaport hikes Synergy Resources (SYRG +2.4%) to Buy from Accumulate thanks to "top-tier growth potential at >$50 oil."
- Upgraded to Accumulate from Neutral are Carrizo Oil & Gas (CRZO +4.3%), as "strong Eagle Ford returns justify return to growth," and Concho Resources (CXO +4.6%), with "high-quality exposure to the Delaware Basin poised to garner further credit."
- The firm raises WPX Energy (WPX +0.2%) to Neutral from Sell, citing "leverage burden eased with equity, higher commodity price deck assumptions, recent operational progress."
- However, Oasis Petroleum (OAS +0.7%) is downgraded to Neutral from Buy as "NAV valuation gap has closed after a 54% move since our March 30 report," and Petroquest Energy (PQ +1.3%) is cut to Accumulate from Buy as "risk/reward upside has tempered" following a 67% move since March 30.
Mon, Apr. 18, 2:31 PM
- Investors should stay on defense through select oil and gas stocks such as Concho Resources (CXO +2.5%), Noble Energy (NBL +0.9%), PDC Energy (PDCE +4.3%), Parsley Energy (PE +2.2%), Pioneer Natural Resources (PXD +2.3%), Synergy Resources (SYRG +1.5%) and Cimarex Energy (XEC +1.8%) following the producers' failure to reach a deal at Doha, Stifel says.
- The firm says the balance sheets of the seven companies should remain sound even if WTI oil prices fall short of its $37/bbl forecast for 2016, and the group also owns some of the strongest assets as measured by half-cycle returns.
- A re-surging market share battle between Saudi Arabia and Iran casts doubt on the timing of a realignment of oil supply and demand, and the divide between the two countries runs deep and could widen if the Saudis flood an oversupplied market with additional barrels, Stifel says.
- Now read Stifel downgrades "riskier" oil stocks ahead of OPEC meeting
Tue, Feb. 16, 5:58 PM
- Concho Resources (NYSE:CXO) +5.1% AH on news it will join the S&P 500, replacing Plum Creek Timber (NYSE:PCL) after the close of trading Feb. 19.
- Weyerhaeuser is acquiring PCL in a deal expected to be completed on or about that date.
Fri, Feb. 12, 2:37 PM
- Whiting Petroleum (WLL -8.9%) may have received the toughest treatment from Moody's, but the ratings agency downgrades a total of eight of companies as part of a sweeping re-examination of oil and gas producers.
- The ratings affected companies rated Ba, or the first tier of debt Moody's considers risky enough to be a speculative investment.
- While Moody's cut WLL's debt rating by five notches, SM Energy (SM -1.2%) and WPX Energy (WPX +3.5%) both fell four notches to B2 from Ba1, and cites the likelihood of a "dramatic increase in financial leverage in 2017" with SM's cut.
- QEP Resources (QEP -0.5%) and Energen (EGN -11.6%) fell three notches to B1 from Ba1.
- Unit Corp. (UNT +2%) fell two notches to B2 from Ba3, which Range Resources (RRC +0.7%) and Newfield Exploration (NFX +2.7%) both slipped to Ba3 from Ba1.
- Ratings for Antero Resources (AR +2.7%) and Concho Resources (CXO +2.2%) were confirmed at Ba2 and Ba1, respectively.
Tue, Jan. 5, 2:47 PM
- An eventual upturn in crude oil prices should turn the tide for the E&P sector In 2016, Citi analyst Robert Morris says as he upgrades Anadarko Petroleum (APC -1%), Canadian Natural Resources (CNQ +1%), EOG Resources (EOG +0.8%) and Cimarex Energy (XEC +1.4%) to Buy from Neutral and ups Oasis Petroleum (OAS -3.3%) to Neutral from Sell.
- For the first time in more than a decade, the per share debt-adjusted growth metrics within the E&P sector showed no correlation to the share price performance in 2015, according to Morris; without a further collapse in commodity prices, he sees debt-adjusted growth metrics, along with key debt metrics and the ability to increase production by spending within cash flow, driving relative E&P share performance.
- Morris maintains Buy ratings on Antero Resources (AR -2.4%), Apache (APA -2.3%), Concho Resources (CXO +1%), Memorial Resource Development (MRD -2%), Range Resources (RRC -0.4%) and Whiting Petroleum (WLL -7.1%), but downgrades Hess (HES -0.5%) to Neutral from Buy.
Dec. 9, 2015, 10:36 AM
- Concho Resources (CXO +2.3%) and Pioneer Natural Resources (PXD +4.3%) are named J.P. Morgan's top large-cap picks among E&P companies focused on the Permian Basin, which the firm says is positioned at the low end of the U.S. tight oil cost curve and thus poised to benefit from efficiency and productivity gains.
- CXO boasts a deep inventory of high rate of return locations in the Delaware Basin; given the company's success there, the firm sees the potential for a "positive rate of change" in the Midland Basin.
- Even though PXD has lagged its Permian peers over the past 12-18 months on a weaker capital efficiency metric, the firm expects the company to realize a positive turn in capital efficiency along with differential oil growth to drive outperformance.
- Parsley Energy (PE +4.2%) and Diamondback Energy (FANG +4.4%) are JPM's top small- and mid-cap picks; Cimarex (XEC +1.7%), Energen (EGN +1.8%) and RSP Permian (RSPP +2.6%) are rated Neutral, while Laredo Petroleum (LPI +4.7%) is tagged with an Underweight rating.
Nov. 12, 2015, 5:48 PM
- Clayton Williams Energy (NYSE:CWEI) +8.4% AH following a Bloomberg report that Concho Resources (NYSE:CXO) is seeking to buy the company.
- CWEI has drawn interest from other suitors, according to the report, after saying last month that it had retained Goldman Sachs to help it explore options including a sale.
- CXO is viewed as a strong candidate to win a sale process for CWEI, given its relatively strong share price, which means it can outbid other suitors using its stock as currency, and it could save money by combining overlapping operations it has with CWEI in the Permian Basin.

Sep. 30, 2015, 4:30 PM
- Concho Resources (NYSE:CXO) -3.9% AH after announcing a public offering of 7M common shares, with an underwriters option to purchase up to an additional 1.05M shares.
- CXO says it plans to use the proceeds to repay all outstanding borrowings under its credit facility, which were used in part to finance recent acquisitions, and for general corporate purposes, including funding potential future acquisitions.
May 4, 2015, 12:27 PM
- Pioneer Natural Resources (PXD -2.6%) plunges following negative comments on PXD and other frackers by Greenlight Capital's David Einhorn at the Ira Sohn conference.
- Einhorn calls for shorting PXD, which he dubs "the motherfracker," and says PXD loses $0.20 of present value for every $1 invested, is burning cash and is not growing.
- Of the sector, Einhorn says fracking companies offer an "almost infinite supply of negative return investment opportunities."
- Einhorn says he also is short WLL -2.5%, CXO -1.2%, CLR -1%, EOG -0.7%.
Feb. 26, 2015, 4:35 PM
- Concho Resources (NYSE:CXO) -2.8% AH after announcing a public offering of 5.6M common shares., with an underwriters option to purchase up to an additional 840K shares.
- CXO says it expects to use the proceeds to repay all outstanding borrowings under the its credit facility and for general corporate purposes, which may include funding its drilling and development program and future acquisitions.
Jan. 12, 2015, 3:17 PM
- Goldman Sachs upgrades a few energy stocks even as it cast a pall of gloom over most of the sector today (I, II, III), raising Chesapeake Energy (CHK -3.6%) to Buy from Neutral and Parsley Energy (PE -4.2%) to Neutral from Sell as potential "shale sale" winners.
- Despite PE's relative vulnerability to lower oil prices because of its weak balance sheet and negative projected free cash, Goldman has more confidence that its core Permian Basin position makes it an attractive M&A target.
- Among potential "shale scale" winners - companies that either can build positions in the core and reduce costs of capital - the firm's favorites remain EOG Resources (NYSE:EOG), Range Resources (NYSE:RRC), Pioneer Natural Resources (NYSE:PXD), Cabot Oil & Gas (NYSE:COG) and Concho Resources (NYSE:CXO).
- However, Goldman cuts Bill Barrett (BBG -8.3%) to Sell from Neutral, seeing greater downside risk to its production in a lower oil price environment, and lowers Eclipse Resources (ECR -1.5%) to Neutral from Buy due to a persistently wide funding gap through 2017 coupled with a weak balance sheet.
Aug. 6, 2014, 4:33 PM
- Concho Resources (NYSE:CXO): Q2 EPS of $1.04 beats by $0.07.
- Revenue of $704.7M (+25.2% Y/Y) beats by $27.99M.
- Shares +1.1%.
May 12, 2014, 11:49 AM
- Concho Resources (CXO -2.6%) says it will launch a public offering of 6M common shares, and will apply proceeds toward repaying all outstanding borrowings under its credit facility as well as funding its three-year accelerated growth plan and capital commitments related to the midstream joint venture and future acquisitions.
- CXO earlier reported Q1 earnings and revenues ahead of analyst consensus, and an 18% Y/Y production increase to 9.1M boe (5.8M barrels of oil, 19.8B cf of natural gas); raises its FY 2014 production guidance range to 20%-24% Y/Y growth.
- CXO also announced a partnership with a private company to build a crude oil pipeline in the northern Delaware Basin in Texas.
Feb. 24, 2014, 12:13 PM
- Concho Resources (CXO +4.6%) continues to push higher after a positive mention by Ron Baron on CNBC before the open as the company he likes best to exploit the U.S. shale boom.
- CXO has been aggregating drilling lands, he says, "and once they have this acreage, they're going to be able to be acquisition candidates by the really big oil companies who don't want to do the legwork."
- Citing rising U.S. spending on health care, Baron likes Illumina (ILMN +3.6%), which he says is taking advantage of the falling costs of sequencing the genome.

I purchased the RoadTrip and returned it after using it for about 3 minutes. There was quite a bit of static and when trying to use a charger at the same time, you could not even hear the music over the static. Good Try But No Cigar.

I ordered one of these just because it was cheap and worth a try. I must say it out performs the iTrip by 100%, and it outperforms the $90 Sonnet Podfreq by an equal amount. I own both. As far as I'm concerned the iTrip and the Podfreq are unacceptable as a way to listen to your iPod in the car.The Roadtrip totally blocks out a strong station right next door to the 88.7 frequency in the area I live, where as the iTrip and Podfreq are totally useless on this frequency. The downside is you are tied to a cigarette lighter socket. I plugged it into one car and started the car. I then went to my other two cars parked 10 and 20 feet away. Each picked up an equally good signal even with the engine running.
My XM Roady uses a similar cigar lighter powered transmitter and it works equally as well as this one. This leads me to believe the limitations on power output of the FM transmitters now on the market are tied to power consumption of the transmitter rather than any FCC regulations. Either that or this transmitter is actually illegal. It makes sense to me. What good would a transmitter that uses the iPod battery be, if it killed the batttery in an hour?
Posted by ceddy45742 in Irvine, CA on September 23, 2004 at 5:15 PM (CDT)
ceddy, how is the sound on it? Right now I have a belkin tape adaptor and I have to say it is far too noisy to enjoy my music (the tape clunking that is). I had an iTrip but took it back because of bleed over and sub par sound, but I have an 2004 Acura TL so my options are limited. Any help is appreciated.
Posted by Mike in Irvine, CA on October 8, 2004 at 12:36 PM (CDT)
This is by far the best car adapter for the iPod ever made.
- It is cheap.
-It totally blocks out a strong radio signal on 87.7 in cities such as Chicago and New York, which have a lot of strong signal radio stations.
- The sound quality is awesome
- It's as easy to setup and use as a Mac Classic running System 6.0.7!!!!
- Did I mention it was cheap?!!!

Hi there!
I'm currently writing a plugin for handling posts as events which stores a timestamp in metakey called e.g. 'time'.
While an event can have multiple occurences there can be several values with the same meta_key per post.
Now I would like to query something like
get all meta by key 'time', sorted by the value and grab all posts by the post-ids of the metas for keeping the posts still sotrted by date and allowing the posts to appear more than one time (because of the several occurences).
the meta-query is easy but than querying the posts one by one by their ID seems to be quite inefficient, doesn't it??
any ideas?

Image Coin Bank
De Tatsuhiko Koyama
Abra o iTunes para comprar e baixar apps.
Lets start saving money, using "Image Coin Bank".
You can choose an image for your goal, and the amount you want to save.
As you put money into your coin bank, the hidden image will start to appear.
【How to use】
1. First, prepare a real coin bank. (This will not be included in the application)
2. Think of what you want to buy with the money you saved, and put a title on it.
3. Enter the amount you want to save, and take a photo of the item you want to get.
4. Decide on the number of division of a photo.
(If saving once per day, this number will equal to the days till you achieve your goal)
5. Now the image bank is set to go. Next, let me explain the everyday procedure.
6. Choose a coin bank from the list. The photo of your goal will be shown.
At first, the photo will be hidden behind white blocks.
7. Click on a block. The amount will show.
8. Put the amount into your coin bank, and click "ok".
9. White block will disappear, and the image hidden behind will appear.
10. Save every day, and get rid of all of the white blocks.
11. When the whole photo appears, your goal has been achieved.
Congratulations! The amount you wanted to save, is in your coin bank.
- The function in which 1 time of the amount of savings can be inputted freely was added.
- In this setup, a photo hides and condition is decided by the rate (%) of the amount of savings to a target.
- A target title can be changed now.
- In "being an input freely", the target amount of money can be changed now.
(When the amount of money is changed, a picture hides, the rate of condition is re-calculated and a hidden portion is also changed.)
- The maximum of the target amount of money which can be set up increased.
- A total is displayed on a coin bank list.
If there are different currencies, ! mark will be displayed. In the case, only the current setting currency will be summed up.

To the Editor:—
A 22-year-old man reported to one of our venereal disease clinics on May 26, 1966, complaining of sores on various portions of his body.The patient gave a history of a penile sore with right inguinal adenitis six months earlier. Although serologic testing was done, the results did not become known, no specific treatment was given, and the lesion healed spontaneously following local applications.The new lesion and right inguinal adenitis returned on May 12, 1966. The new lesion was close to but not at the exact location of the original sore. Three or four days later, May 15 or 16, several additional sores appeared on the foreskin. By this time, a rash had erupted on the scrotum. By May 18 or 20, "sores" had appeared on his umbilicus and inside his nostrils. He had nasal stuffiness but no chills, fever, or malaise.There were multiple, soft,

In recent years diverse hand-manipulated geometric puzzles have increased in popularity and ingenuity of development with a view toward the increasing interest of individuals in the mental challenges in solving such puzzles and the manual dexterity required for the same.
Many such puzzles are known in the art and are available in the marketplace. To date, however, there has not been available an easily handled puzzle requiring only modest dexterity while presenting a difficult challenge in effecting a desired reorientation of color or pattern of individual small cubes arranged in a cubical array.
Existing cube-type games include that known as "Rubik's Cube" which while challenging is inordinately complex both in concept and physical manufacture. On the other end of the scale with respect to shifting piece puzzles, the well-known planar array of 15 slidable squares in a 4�4 pattern provides a challenge that is far more readily solved than when effecting solution of a position problem in a three dimensional environment.
Other sliding block puzzle games are exemplified by the U.S. Pat. Nos. to Sinden 3,841,638 and Kosareck 3,845,959.
The present invention provides a unique, challenging, and yet solvable three-dimensional puzzle uniquely characterized by a cubical array of individual smaller cubes wherein complexity is minimized in that the permitted single cube length movement is confined to a path only along one of the 12 side edges of the cube. To this end, and permitting simple and economical manufacture, the puzzle includes a core element of six-pointed star-like configuration upon the exterior surfaces of which other than the distal ends the smaller individual cubes are supported, guided, and permitted to be moved.
To this end, and as seen viewing any primary face of the cubical puzzle, there is defined a square annular array of cubes along each edge of the large cube, and which square annular pattern of cubes bounds the central core.
Thus, in an illustrative embodiment, a single side of the cube presents a 3�3 pattern, that is with three cubes or spaces for three cubes along each edge of the single square face, thereby to define a square annular array with a central open area. The supporting core extends into this central area on each face of the cube, and the core is provided with retaining means at the distal core ends thereby to retain the cubes in position.
Accordingly, in such a 3�3 cube, it will be seen that there are a total of 20 cube spaces which are occupied as indicated by 19 such smaller cubes, the vacant or void cube space being provided to permit requisite shifting movement of the cubes on a one-by-one basis.
Accordingly, with any given desired pattern provided on the cubes or upon the exterior visible faces thereof, it will be seen that movement of the cubes one at a time and in any random or predetermined order will effect a rearrangement of the pattern presented on any or all exterior faces, as, for example, a complete inversion of a color pattern from one to another.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, each smaller cube is provided with three touching faces of one color and the remaining three mutually touching faces of another color.
With the exemplary arrangement, it will be seen that the cubical pattern can be so arranged that only one color is visible on one face along all side edges of the large cubical array, but by appropriate repositioning of the individual cubes one at a time, the array can be fully converted into a pattern of the opposite color.
The invention will be better understood when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the puzzle according to the invention with an illustrative color pattern thereon;
FIG. 2 is a side sectional view taken on the line 2--2 of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a perspective view partially exploded of the core member and the retaining members thereof;
FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the exterior faces one half of a smaller cube prior to assembly having one color thereon;
FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the interior faces of one half of a cube prior to assembly with that half in FIG. 4, and having another color thereon.
The multiple cube puzzle of the present invention is illustrated generally at 10 in FIG. 1 and essentially includes a central star-like core 12 best seen in FIG. 2 and so configured as to receive upon and adjacent the surfaces thereof a number of smaller individual cubes 14. The cubes 14 are so arrayed that all smaller cubes 14 are supported on and adjacent core 12 to form a single large cube assembly as at 10 wherein each of the smaller cubes 14 is disposed along and assists in forming one or two of the twelve corner edges 16 of the larger cube.
There are a sufficient number of smaller cubes 14 so as to entirely form the larger cube, less a single smaller cube 14 as clearly seen in FIG. 1 wherein the uppermost proximate cube is absent to form a "void cube" space.
In the illustrated form of the invention, the twelve ccrner edges 16 of the large cube are defined by a total of nineteen smaller cubes 14, twenty cubes being required to fully complete the large cube as shown were the void space filled.
Stated otherwise, the small cube and core arrangement is such that on any given face of the large cube, the small cubes (or the small cubes and the void cube) define a square annulus about a portion of the central core 12. In the form illustrated in FIG. 1, eight such cubes 14 are required to define each complete square annulus on any face of the main cube. In the embodiment shown, there are seven cubes on each such face, the cornermost cube as noted on the upper layer being absent to define the void cube.
Means are provided to retain the individual cubes 14 in assembled relation for ease of manipulation. The same include end retaining members or caps as at 20, 22 disposed at the the distal end of each leg 18 of the core 12. As in evident, each retaining member possesses a flange-like exterior periphery slightly larger than a single face of a smaller cube 14, thereby to overlie in part all cubes along its face of the primary cube. It will be evident that with the slight overlap shown, it is not possible for any individual cube 14 to drop or fall from the assembled relation of the main cube 10. Nonetheless, each of the smaller cubes 14 is free to slide laterally or vertically into the single hole or void cube space provided in the cubical array.
In one form of the invention, the retaining members 22 are formed as integral one piece elements with the associated leg 18. Thus, for simplicity, the central core portion as seen in FIG. 3 may be readily molded from plastic in essentially tubular form and wherein the four legs 18 lying in one horizontal plane will each have formed thereon a laterally outwardly directed flange thereby providing the retaining member as at 22. For simplicity, the vertically extending legs 18 have no such flanges thereon, but rather are provided with separate end retainer caps 20 which may be adhesively bonded or fused to the distal ends of legs 18 after assembly of the small cubes 14 with the core.
It will be evident from FIG. 3 that all nineteen small cubes 14 may be physically positioned about the core and thereafter the upper and lower retainers 20 secured thereto. The lower cap 20 might initially be applied before the cubes, as the smaller cubes 14 could be dropped vertically with respect to FIG. 3 downwardly onto the edge of the lower cap 20 and then passed laterally beneath an adjacent leg 18, but for more ready assembly, both caps 20 are preferably attached subsequent to grouping of the small cubes 14 around the core 12.
Alternatively, a separate cap like member 20 could be employed at the end of each of the legs 18 in the absence of integral formations thereon as at 22.
In the preferred embodiment, the core 12 may be readily and inexpensively formed from molded plastic, although it is evident that the same may comprise any other material which provides a requisite support for the individual cubes 14 and their lateral and vertical movement. Thus, the core could be formed simply from a plurality of wooden blocks or pieces, or from metal.
In like manner, the cubes 14 themselves may be readily fabricated as desired. In the simplest form, the cubes 14 may be formed from small wooden blocks and thereafter suitably decorated or marked with indicia as desired.
In the preferred form of the invention, and representing both a saving of weight and material, the individual cubes 14 are formed from two mirror image three-sided or faced elements as seen in FIGS. 4 and 5. Thus, in FIG. 4, the one-piece molded three sided element 24 includes six exposed peripheral edges 26, while the opposite half cube element 28 in FIG. 5 is likewise obviously provided with the same edges 26. The two half-cube elements 24, 28 are thus butted together along the edges 26 and suitably joined as by adhesive or fusion techniques to form the complete single cube 14.
As is evident from the foregoing structure, any given cube 14 may be transposed to any position whatever along any exterior angle edge of the primary or main large cube array 10 by the step-by-step transpositioning thereof in horizontal or vertical planes utilizing the void cube space.
With this in mind then, the instant construction is particularly well adapted to a puzzle of diverse and challenging form as determined by the indicia or marking selected for the individual cubes 14.
Thus, the upper right-hand most cube 14 in FIG. 1, for example, may be readily translated along the main cube edges 16 about the entire face periphery of the large cube within the right-hand retaining cap 20, for example, by the simple expedient of shifting the cubes successively to the left toward the void cute and filling the newly created void cube space from the right in a counterclockwise square motion of the cubes on that face. In like manner, any cube 14 may travel horizontally along the top and bottom faces.
In one working embodiment of the invention as a challenging puzzle, three adjacent faces of the six faces on a small cube 14 are of one color, as illustratively shown in FIG. 4, while the remaining three faces of the cube 14 are another color, as illustratively indicated by the non-shading in FIG. 5, prior to joining a1ong lines 26. See FIG. 1, for example wherein the most proximate cube beneath the void cube has two shaded faces visible between the end caps 20, while the upper face thereof is of different color character.
It will be seen then that with a suitable positioning of the cubes 14 in assembling the puzzle 10, one or more entire faces of the main cube in the annular exposed area thereof may be of one color, and by appropriate sliding in horizontal and vertical directions, the several cubes 14 may be repositioned so as to convert that colored face into a face of a different color or pattern of colors.
The variety of positionings is therefore virtually unlimited. While in one actual operative and preferred embodiment, each cube has the two respective colorations thereof on respective three-face halves, differing patterns may be employed of geometric nature, stripes, outlines of figures, etc. Upon appropriate sliding and shifting of the individual cubes 14 along the edge peripheries 16 of the primary cube, a desired pattern may be achieved or destroyed.
It will therefore be seen that an endless variety of puzzles and challenges are provided by the cubical array of the present invention, yet with minimum fabrication and assembly complexities and costs.
In a further form of the invention, one or more of the end caps 20 may be snap-fitted or otherwise detachably secured to the core element thereby to permit ready removal thereof for selective repositioning of the cubes 14 in accordance with a predetermined scheme, printed selected game instructions, or the like. A cap 20 may be readily assembled in a snap fit by the provision thereon, for example, of a depending skirt sized to fit internally of a core leg 18 and having an outer peripheral bead on its surface dimensioned to mate with a corresponding peripheral recess on the interior of the associated leg 18. In this manner, the cubes 14 are retained for any given puzzle manipulation, but can readily be removed and repositioned by temporary removal of a snap-cap 20.

With an annual income of $50k and no debt a lender will allow you use about $2080 for your mortgage taxes, insurance, condo fees, and private mortgage insurance. If you have any other monthly debt you can subtract that number from the $2080. The lender may allow you to go higher depending on the program and on compensating factors such as assets, down payment, and program. Let me know if I can be of any assitance to you as you can call me directly at 814-308-3276. Thanks
The best thing I can tell you is to talk with a mortgage lender, because they can look at your whole financial picture and tell you both what you qualify for and what you can afford. The two are not necessarily the same, it all depends on what your comfort level is and, I know from experience, that can change once you start looking at houses and see what's available.
I can send you recommendations for three lenders whom I work with regularly, one with Metlife, one with Bank of America and one with BB&T. They are all very experienced and are actual lenders, not mortgage brokers who tend to get people in trouble. You want your real estate agent to have a good working relationship with your lender because they work closely together for you, coordinating everything to get you to closing on time.
With your salary and small debt, you should have no problem qualifying for a decent sized home in the area you want to be in, so long as you have a good credit history. Another good idea is to pull up your credit history for free from ALL three reporting agencies - Equifax, TransUnion and Experian - to make sure nothing is in there that shouldn't be. The higher your credit score, the better interest rate you will qualify for, which equals a lower monthly mortgage payment.
Feel free to contact me anytime. I would love to talk with you about finding a home and would be happy to send you my mortgage lender contacts. I'm licensed in DC, MD and VA.
My cell is 703-961-8663 and my email is email@example.com.
Good luck!
Kelly Putz
Best thing is to talk to a mortage person to see what you can afford. Then sit down and figure out what your other bills are, as you can usually get approved for more than you want to spend. With minimal debt, you should be able to find something. It is also probably more affordable in Largo than Silver Spring...

[Congressional Bills 106th Congress] [From the U.S. Government Printing Office] [H. Con. Res. 375 Referred in Senate (RFS)] 106th CONGRESS 2d Session H. CON. RES. 375 _______________________________________________________________________ IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES July 26, 2000 Received and refered to the Committee on the Judiciary _______________________________________________________________________ CONCURRENT RESOLUTION Recognizing the importance of children in the United States and supporting the goals and ideas of American Youth Day. Whereas national evidence indicates that America's youth are faced with oppressive issues, such as violence, drugs, abuse, and even family stress, causing the future of the youth of the United States, and therefore the future of the Nation, to be at risk; Whereas youth in America, regardless of their economic status, ethnic or cultural heritage, or geographic location, are experiencing the pressures caused by contemporary society; Whereas although Americans realize the challenges of today's busy lifestyles and balancing work schedules and youth activities, they remain committed to education, physical fitness, and civic-mindedness; Whereas it is imperative that the people of the United States act willfully and purposely to secure a positive future for the Nation by devoting time to youth, sharing traditions, and communicating values to children in an effort to sustain ongoing relationships with caring adults; Whereas America's Promise--The Alliance for Youth, led by General Colin L. Powell, United States Army (retired), is one of the Nation's most comprehensive nonprofit organizations dedicated to building and strengthening the character and competence of youth by mobilizing the Nation to fulfill the organization's ``Five Promises'' for young people: (1) ongoing relationships with caring adults; (2) safe places with structured activities during nonschool hours; (3) a healthy start and future; (4) marketable skills through effective education; and (5) opportunities to give back through community service; Whereas the citizens of the United States will celebrate American Youth Day and encourage all youth organizations to participate annually on a Saturday near the beginning of the school year; and Whereas American Youth Day will provide opportunities for America's youth to reclaim the values which foster trust and build better communication and which will encourage parents, grandparents, and extended families to recognize the importance of being involved in the physical and emotional lives of their children: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), That the Congress-- (1) recognizes the importance of youth to the future of the United States; (2) supports the goals and ideas of American Youth Day; and (3) encourages the people of the United States to participate in local and national activities that seek to fulfill the Five Promises to America's youth, as established by America's Promise--The Alliance for Youth. Passed the House of Representatives July 25, 2000. Attest: Jeff Trandahl, Clerk

TV & Radio
Molly Meldrum to appear in Hey Hey It's Saturday reunion specials
- From: Herald Sun
- September 10, 2009
- Channel 7 backflips on Molly Meldrum
- He will now appear in Hey Hey reunion shows
- Pictures: Relive the best of Hey Hey
- TV guide: What's on tonight
MUSIC guru Molly Meldrum will be part of the Hey Hey It's Saturday reunion shows.
In a move full of good will, Channel 7 reversed its decision to ban Meldrum from appearing on the Hey Hey specials on rival network Channel 9 after host Daryl Somers pleaded his case to Seven boss David Leckie, the Herald Sun reports.
"They are allowing me to do the Hey Hey shows and I am sure it is going to be great fun," Meldrum said.
"From the Countdown days at the ABC and then to move to Hey Hey in 1987, and be part of that, another iconic show, for the next 12 years or so, I have been extremely lucky in life," he said.
Meldrum is hoping luck continues to run his way in footy circles, with the St Kilda and Melbourne Storm supporter painting the fence of his Richmond home.
"When I decided to do the wall some Storm supporters and St Kilda supporters said, 'Oh God Molly, don't paint the wall this year, we think it is jinxed'," he said.
"But I wanted to and so I did it with a musical influence."

While we're on the topic of spelling, should we discuss the possibility of correct punctuality as well? It seems if we're going to criticize others, we should ensure our bases are covered!

this Piece is Wonderful. I initially bought it to hang in my living room. But, it is such a deep gold, metalic tone(which is perfect for my lightish creme), BUT...and this is a BIG factor, it sticks out 3/4 of an inch, but with it be CANVAS WHITE on Two peices, that is all you notice. I moved it to the top of a stairs, on a smaller wall, where people will not see the side, so it works great. Just be aware, if you don't get the framed one( I have Cherry-wood furniture, so i opted-out), you will have to have it fitted with a frams. and it's an odd frame size. And it would have cost me just as much as the pictures to have it framed to match my furniture. Wish they would have wrapped it around, but they didn't, so be prepared for a great picture and rich colors next to canvas white and Then Your walls are probley not canvas white. But i love it, now that i found a new place for it.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? exactly same color
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. good, on canvas. beautiful rich colors
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? good
I was not aware that the color didn't "wrap" to the edges, so was disappointed when I received these canvases. I returned them.
This art set is the finishing touch for my dining area and I am pleased with the results..
Loved these pieces as I only had narrow sections of wall to put them on. They work perfectly in my living room, and the colors are totally accurate and match my dhurrie rug. I love them!

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Linux Journal Contents #165, January 2008
The January issue of Linux Journal focuses on the ever-important topic of security. But, before setting forth to fortify your systems, wet your whistle with Reuven Lerner's primer on the new Facebook API and Eric S. Raymond's musings on the history and future of open source. Once satiated, get your recommended dose of security protein with articles from Jeramiah Bowling on simple lessons for Linux security, Ron Aitchison on clandestine secrets of the DNS hierarchy, Regis Balzard and Dominik Gehl on PacketFence and Kyle Rankin on forensics with Autopsy and Sleuthkit. For desktop-security elixers, seek out Kyle once again and his piece on combining Tor and Knoppix for 100% anonymous Web browsing, as well as Carl Welch, whose how-to on the GPG-based Password Wallet will allow you to forget your Internet passwords. We hope you enjoy this issue and look forward to your feedback.

Practical Task Scheduling Deployment

One of the best things about the UNIX environment (aside from being stable and efficient) is the vast array of software tools available to help you do your job. Traditionally, a UNIX tool does only one thing, but does that one thing very well. For example, grep is very easy to use and can search vast amounts of data quickly. The find tool can find a particular file or files based on all kinds of criteria. It's pretty easy to string these tools together to build even more powerful tools, such as a tool that finds all of the .log files in the /home directory and searches each one for a particular entry. This erector-set mentality allows UNIX system administrators to seem to always have the right tool for the job.
Cron traditionally has been considered another such a tool for job scheduling, but is it enough? This webinar considers that very question. The first part builds on a previous Geek Guide, Beyond Cron, and briefly describes how to know when it might be time to consider upgrading your job scheduling infrastructure. The second part presents an actual planning and implementation framework.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide
