- Paulsen's Draft NotesCousins was the #17 QB through the first seven weeks of the season, but really started to produce after his Week 8 bye, averaging 20.9 PPG in his final nine games. That was the 4th-highest per game average during that stretch. He averaged 9.28 YPA in that span and threw at a 4318-yard, 36-TD pace. The team added Josh Doctson to an already talented receiving corps, so Cousins could offer top 10 numbers again in 2016.
Schefter: Redskins will tag QB Kirk CousinsFriday, February 26, 2016, 5:15pm
Redskins are tagging QB Kirk Cousins, per league source. Only decision left is whether team uses franchise or transition tag on him.
Cousins finished as the #9 fantasy quarterback in his first full season as the starter. If the team places the franchise tag on him, he'll be Washington's starter again in 2016. If they use the transition tag, then they'll have the right to match any offer that he gets in free agency.
Redskins want to win, but may rest players 'depending on the situation'Thursday, December 31, 2015, 12:23pm
It's a new experience for the entire organization. Washington Redskins Coach Jay Gruden has had several days to figure out his approach for Sunday's regular season finale against the Dallas Cowboys, and he is planning to use his healthy players with a home playoff game on the horizon. It's unknown at this point, however, how long some of the Redskins' key starters will play with the team locked into the NFC's No. 4 seed.
"I have a good feel for it, so we just have to make that determination," Gruden said. "Number one, it's the health of our football team with these injured guys who are legitimately injured and can't play. Then, from there, we'll have to figure out the able bodies that we have — personnel groupings will be adjusted — and then throughout the course of the game, we'll make adjustments depending on the situation."
"It's important for us to be healthy come playoff time, but it is also to have some kind of momentum also going in," Gruden said. "I'd like to end on a four-game winning streak, win three games in a row on the road, finish the fourth quarter [of the season] 4-0 [and] finish 9-7. I think it's a hell of a step in the right direction. The guys that are able to play are planning on playing and competing."
Related players: Matt Jones, DeSean Jackson, Kirk Cousins, Jordan Reed, Pierre Garcon
Matt Jones (hip) and DeSean Jackson (knee) are on the injury report this week, so they are the top candidates to see a reduction in playing time. It's also possible that Kirk Cousins, Jordan Reed and Pierre Garcon see reduced snaps as well.
Friday, December 18, 2015, 6:32pm
Redskins WR DeSean Jackson (knee, probable) took limited practice reps again Friday and is probable for Week 15. It looks like Jackson will play and he's a low-end WR3 given the injury. His presence is a boost for Kirk Cousins, who tends to play a lot better at home than he does on the road.
Kirk Cousins says he's more 'polished'Saturday, November 21, 2015, 9:08pm
Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins says game experience ranks as the single biggest reason for his marked improvement in recent weeks.
"My fundamentals are much better [and] I feel like I'm a more polished quarterback, a more polished player, a more mature player," he said. "That is in all phases—whether it's fundamentals, decision making, recognition of defenses. That comes with time."
"And that's no surprise," he added. "I mean, if you start and play long enough in this league, you expect that to happen."
Cousins will make the 19th start of his four-year career. But, more importantly, it'll mark his 10th consecutive start of 2015. Prior to this season, the 27-year-old had never made more than five starts in a row. Cousins continues to improve. He's thrown one INT over his last three games after eight in his first six contests.
Redskins hope to use more screen passesSaturday, November 21, 2015, 11:09am
The Redskins' biggest play against the Saints came on a very short pass. In the second quarter, Kirk Cousins dumped a screen pass to running back Matt Jones, who picked up blocks from his linemen and receivers, and rolled 78 yards for a touchdown that gave the Redskins a lead they never relinquished.
It was the longest pass play to a Redskins running back since Larry Brown went 89 yards with a screen pass in a game against the Jets in 1972. It seems to Redskins fans that it has been that long since a screen pass worked for the team. That may be an exaggeration but the play that is a staple of Football 101 rarely seems to work for the Redskins.
Jay Gruden would like to see that change.
"They're important, especially if you're playing some of these pass rush teams that like to get up the field and rush," he said. "It slows them down a little bit. We have some linemen that are very athletic and can get out in space. Last week was really our first time we had a lot of success with those screen passes and I expect us to have more as the season goes on."
The story pointed out it's not as easy as it might look to execute a screen pass, and last week the Saints were a much friendlier matchup compared to what the Panthers will be this week. But, it sounds like the Skins would like to make it part of their offense. They certainly have the weapons as Jones proved last week. The team also has Chris Thompson as their third RB. Jones' fantasy value could really get a boost if he becomes more involved in the passing game.

Redskins WR DeSean Jackson (hamstring, questionable) took limited practice reps all week and is questionable for Week 9. Jackson said he'll return for Week 9, though the questionable tag leaves us wondering. He's been out a while, but is generally a top 20 option in standard formats when healthy. He has averaged 2.6 catches for 67 yards and 0.43 TD in seven games with Kirk Cousins under center over the past two seasons. Washington is likely to be pass-heavy in this one. The Redskins play early on Sunday.

Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins did not have a good game against the Jets, but it will not cost him his job, at least for right now.
When asked if Cousins, who threw two interceptions and averaged just 4.6 yards per attempt on 43 passes, would remain the team's quarterback, Jay Gruden gave what seemed to be a lukewarm endorsement.
"Yeah, that's the intent," he said when asked.
Cousins was coming off a game where he through a pick-six to the Falcons in overtime that resulted in a loss.
Skins Beat: Team needs more Alfred MorrisSaturday, October 17, 2015, 10:56am
To get Alfred Morris going, it will take a couple things. It starts with the blocking; there have been too many backside blocks missed, especially on the right side. And the tight ends haven't helped consistently, either. Against the Rams they were good; against the Falcons they were not. What would help Morris, I think, is more balance on early downs with the play calling. The Redskins' play-action game works best when he's in the lineup: Kirk Cousins has completed 15-of-20 play-action passes when Morris is on the field, according to ESPN Stats & Information.
By the way, that leads me to another topic for a minute. The Redskins are not using as much play-action as I anticipated (and they said). Maybe they would have done more with Robert Griffin III, but the early plan was to use more play-action. Cousins has attempted play-action passes only 16.7 percent of the time, according to ESPN Stats & Information.
The story said the Skins are trying to save Morris, but pointed out he rarely gets run down. The team seems to like to utilize Matt Jones and Chris Thompson so it's created a three-headed backfield where none of the backs are all that safe of fantasy plays. Right now, Jones is probably the best bet because it seems like he's getting the red zone carries which have led to some TDs.
Skins Beat: Team should turn to Pierre GarconSaturday, September 19, 2015, 3:59pm
The short answers are that nobody can take DeSean Jackson's place and the offense will have to figure out how to move the chains the same way the vast majority of the teams in the league do. Very few NFL teams have a receiver with Jackson's sheer speed and ability to run under almost anything a quarterback throws up there.
The Redskins didn't have one in 2013. Jackson was an Eagle that year. The Redskins relied on Pierre Garçon to move the football through the air. Quarterbacks Robert Griffin III and Kirk Cousins targeted Garçon a league leading 181 times. They attempted a combined 611 passes so nearly one in every three throws was in Garçon's direction.
And the receiver came through with 113 receptions, a total that both led the league and set a team record for catches in a single season. The Redskins did not have a top-notch offense doing things this way but they did rank ninth in total yards and the Garçon-centric passing attack kept defenses honest enough to for the team to rank fifth in rushing yards. It was a miserable 3-13 seasons but a shaky defense, awful special teams, and general team dysfunction contributed more to the mess than the offense did.
The piece went on to say there is no reason why this plan can't work again during Jackson's temporary absence. With Jackson missing all but a few snaps of the Dolphins game, Garçon was targeted eight times, catching six. Four catches were good for first downs and a fifth reception that should have resulted in a first down was nullified by a highly questionable offensive pass interference penalty.
Jordan Reed: 'I'm going to play'Saturday, September 19, 2015, 11:13am
Tight end Jordan Reed is officially questionable to play versus the St. Louis Rams on Sunday with a quad injury.
To hear Reed tell it, there is no question about the matter.
"Yeah, I'm going to play," he said, via the Washington Post. "One hundred percent."
Reed missed most of the preseason with a hamstring injury. The talented tight end missed 13 games his first two NFL seasons.
The third-year pro caught seven passes for 63 yards and a touchdown in Week 1. He was Kirk Cousins' go-to target and should continue to see a plethora of passes thrown his way with DeSean Jackson on the shelf.
Facing a brutalizing Rams pass rush on Sunday, Cousins will look to get the ball out of his hands quickly, which means Reed, as the quarterback's security blanket, should see his stats will pop off the page again. We can't always trust what players have to say about their injuries but Reed seems pretty confident he's going to suit up.
DeSean Jackson (hamstring) to miss 3-4 weeksMonday, September 14, 2015, 2:46pm
Washington Redskins wide receiver DeSean Jackson is expected to miss three to four weeks with the strained hamstring he suffered Sunday, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Jackson underwent an MRI on Monday. The team has not announced results of that follow-up exam.
Jackson suffered the injury on the first play of the Redskins' second series in the first quarter, when he ran a deep route on an overthrow by quarterback Kirk Cousins.
Jackson, who missed the entire preseason with a Grade 2 separated shoulder, grabbed at his leg after the play and was worked on by trainers for several minutes on the sideline.
With Jackson sidelined, the Redskins lose their best deep-ball target. Second-year receiver Ryan Grant replaced him in three-receiver sets Sunday, but he lacks the deep speed to threaten defenses. Andre Roberts could get a bump up in targets as well. TE Jordan Reed had a 7-63-1 line Sunday and may continue to be a big-time target in the passing game, and it should also help Pierre Garcon attract more targets.
DeSean Jackson suffers hamstring injurySunday, September 13, 2015, 8:06pm
Washington Redskins star wide receiver DeSean Jackson missed the remainder of Sunday's season opener against the Miami Dolphins after suffering a hamstring injury in the first quarter.
Redskins coach Jay Gruden said after the game that Jackson will undergo an MRI on the hamstring. The Dolphins beat the Redskins 17-10.

"Any time you lose a guy that runs a 4.25 40, it damages some of your play-action game," Gruden said. "The first one we threw to him, he had a step [on the corner] and I believe he would have caught it if he didn't pull his hammy.
"It's a great throw by Kirk, and that's the last we saw of him -- and we had another seven or eight [plays] built in to clear out and get DeSean across the field. It was a big loss for us."
The Redskins initially listed Jackson as questionable to return before eventually downgrading him. With Jackson sidelined, the Redskins lose their best deep-ball target. Second-year receiver Ryan Grant replaced him in three-receiver sets but lacks the deep speed to threaten defenses. Jackson led the NFL with 13 catches for 40 or more yards last season.
Friday, September 11, 2015, 6:21pm
Redskins QB Robert Griffin III (concussion, probable) took full practice reps on Friday after being limited earlier in the week and is probable for Week 1. Kirk Cousins is going to start Week 1. He's a shaky fantasy start against a good Miami defense.

Change in GRUB menu.lst does not take effect
I'm working on a system (Ubuntu 9.04) which has RAID 10 on 6x1TB disks. Over this there is a LVM setup. I needed to install a new kernel on this system and everything went smoothly. I updated the /boot/grub/menu.lst file to boot with the new kernel.
However, while booting, the newly installed kernel is not seen in the list and the system still boots with the old kernel.
I re-checked the installation logs of the new kernel and there were no errors. I ran 'update-grub' and it selects all the kernels available in /boot. However, when I run 'grub-install' it throws the following error:
/dev/mapper/vg-root does not have any corresponding BIOS drive.
I tried to do this from the grub command line:
grub> find /grub/stage1
find /grub/stage1
grub> find /grub/stage2
find /grub/stage2
grub> find /grub/menu.lst
find /grub/menu.lst
grub> root (hd0,0)
root (hd0,0)
grub> setup (hd0)
setup (hd0)
Checking if "/boot/grub/stage1" exists... no
Checking if "/grub/stage1" exists... yes
Checking if "/grub/stage2" exists... yes
Checking if "/grub/e2fs_stage1_5" exists... yes
Running "embed /grub/e2fs_stage1_5 (hd0)"... failed (this is not fatal)
Running "embed /grub/e2fs_stage1_5 (hd0,0)"... failed (this is not fatal)
Running "install /grub/stage1 (hd0) /grub/stage2 p /grub/menu.lst "... succeeded
grub> quit
However, it still doesn't work. The groot in menu.lst is shown as "groot=(hd0,0)" (used by update-grub) and the /boot is on LVM:
df /boot
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/vg-root 19223252 1140336 17106432 7% /
.. and the device.map file looks like:
(fd0) /dev/fd0
(hd0) /dev/sda
I'm running out of ideas. Any help on this will be highly appreciated.

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

HARRISBURG - Pennsylvania legislators will explore the authorization of online gambling, state Senate President Joseph B. Scarnati III said Wednesday in response to a just-released report.
Scarnati (R., Jefferson) sponsored a resolution in December directing the Legislative Budget and Finance Committee to examine the viability of casino gambling in Pennsylvania as lawmakers grapple with deep budget deficits.
"It has become clear that Pennsylvania casinos are facing increasing competition from surrounding states, some of which have begun to utilize new and innovative revenue generators. As we move forward, authorization of online gambling in the state will be explored," Scarnati said in a statement.

i'm SOOO jealous!! you'll have to keep us updated on how it is... should we start a pool on when it breaks?
I guess that makes mine the first comment from an iPhone...and yes, this thing rocks! :-)
i'm SOOO jealous!! you'll have to keep us updated on how it is... should we start a pool on when it breaks?
second post on an iPhone- it does indeed rock for surfing the web!
I love my iPhone, lots.
I waited for 10 hours in Olympia for one thinking they would sell out and I gotta say the iPhone is badass. The keyboard works surprisingly well, especially compared to using the number pad on my old phone. It does help if you just trust it and not look at what you type (it's not easy though) and then recheck your text and edit with the magnifying glass (videos are at the apple website). My only problem is that you have to hit a button to access the period on another page rather than having it right there with the letters. And the P and O keys are finicky. Did Dan Savage get his iPhone or did he decide on the Razr?
*crying* I was hoping SLOG would stay iPhone free. Every 5th article on my RSS feeds are about the iPhone....which is still better than reading about Paris Hilton. Since I can't stand cell phones and enjoy talking on my 1978 princess phone that is plugged into a wall and has a chord I won't be buying an iPhone (electronic iLeash) anytime soon. It is sexy though and has a beautiful interface. Does the glass get greasy?
As an interactive designer, I am excited that the Safari browser is now on 3 different platforms, PC, Mac and the iPhone. I'm glad the websites I work on will actually look good on at least one mobile device.
you're so fucking cool, anthony.
Wow, rechecking my posts with a magnifying glass, that DOES sound cool!
Snark aside, how much do you dig that AT&T?
I am soooooooo jealous..i wish I could give more of my money to Steve Jobs so I could talk on the phone (and give ATT the permission to turn in my records to the Feds).
I'm so impressed.
I guess I'll just have to be content to drive around in my Hummer and throw my McDonalds garbage out the window for thrills instead of surfing the net for the availability of the WII in the palm of my hand. Damn!
God really loves America...we are so lucky. Bling!! Pussy!! OW!!
so sick of all this iPhone bullshit...
I kind of have to agree with Patrick....the iphone is cooler than shit, but I don't want AT&T, so no iphone for me...
What, no photos from Dan about iPhones in small places?
Dan, this is your franchise. Get on it!
"But wait! Taking out Saddam means dropping bombs, and dropping bombs only creates more terrorists!
That's the lefty argument du jour, and a lot of squish-brains are falling for it, but it's not an argument that the historical record supports."
Dan Savage Oct. 2002
Fnarf, I've had AT&T/Cingular service for a couple years and never had any particularly serious problems. Certainly no more problems than I and others have with every other carrier I know of. I'm not a great fan of some of their business practices, but my application for sainthood was permanently rejected years ago anyway (unlike some other angels of sweetness and light in this thread).
A few years ago (I'm still pissed) I had AT&T Expedia broadband. The only way they would accept payment was through debiting your credit card or checking account. One wedensday they debited my account, the next day they closed my account for non-payment. I will spare you my tale of hours on the phone on hold, and so on and on and on. There are plenty of big companies out there who give crummy service. AT&T ranks in the worst of them.
If AT&T was giving away IPhones with a signup I wouldn't do it.
Opus gets his IPhone
The phone and the network: I've long labored under miserable AT&T mobile service using lesser phones; now I can get unsatisfactory mobile service on my iPhone! Throughout San Francisco, AT&T signal strength varies wildly from place to place and from second to second. The first call I made on the iPhone dropped out briefly -- I was ordering take-out and had to repeat my order.
But you've got no choice. Apple has chosen AT&T as the iPhone's exclusive network provider. This week Working Assets, the phone company whose mission is to do well by doing good, put out a petition urging Steve Jobs to "unlock" the iPhone -- that is, to let people use it on any provider they choose. People ought to have the right to choose whatever device they'd like to use on whatever network, Working Assets argues. And if you're going to get stuck with a network, AT&T would likely come up last in your list. Here's a company that is currently fighting network neutrality, helping the NSA spy on Americans, and developing a way for Hollywood to police the Internet. As Cory Doctorow asks, "Honestly, is there anyone who believes that having a captive audience of two-year-locked iPhone customers will incentivize AT&T to behave better?"
Not many iPhones here in Nelson, BC.
On the other hand, my old home town of Kaslo, BC, formerly pop 1000 (now something like pop 1500), now has a Computer Store!
Dude. I'll bet some of the tourists there already have their iPhones.
This post was made on a Speakeasy Rainmail terminal at the Sit 'n Spin. Green screen, pitcher of PBR, and my whites getting jacked by a crackhead from Kelly's on 3rd & Bell. Feature vs. Benefit trumps the iPhone by a mile.
AT&T will only have the exclusive for a month or two and then it will open up for all the major cell services.
Uh oh... it looks like the iPhone is cool, fresh, and useful... Eric Grandy, we need you now! Shut them down!!

Florida Homeowner's Association Has Different Worry
Usually homeowner's association's biggest worries are regarding kept lawns, yards, fees paid on time, etc., but the Vista Cove neighborhood in St. Augustine, Florida has an alligator to worry about. An alligator is living in the pond in the neighborhood.
Some residents have written to news stations stating that the alligator has been aggressive towards the children. Some children have teased the alligator, and it is an unsafe place to live with children. As the alligator moves about on the property, it could pose a huge threat to residents, their children and pets.
President of the HOA, Stephen Wood, says the alligator is not aggressive. It is in the pond and not bothering anyone, and that people should leave the alligator alone. The wildlife association said as long as its not aggressive, no action has to be taken. The HOA has decided to leave it alone at this time, but if it was to show aggression it will most likely be killed. From News4Jax.com.

There is a different way to upload the pictures, you dont use the media gallery. You upload it through the Plugins 'Assets' page, one at a time.
I love piecemaker, use it on other html website, and was really hoping to use it on my Wp site. And this plugin did just that.
What I love about this plug in are two things, that you can upload and set an unlimited number of images to each one, and create a multitude (without limit) of piecemaker banners for your site. This plugin seems to get along well with all of my other plugins.
Recently had a problem where I could not put a quality image the full width of the WP site, as it was getting shrunk and distorted. Piecemaker2 was the solution. Designed the image size, uploaded, then configured the piecemaker to the specific size I wanted. It retained and kept the quality with each image. Can just set the timing to stretch on to 1000 seconds so that the image just stays for minutes at a time.
I also love that I can use the same shortcode and just change the number for each different banner.
The only problem I faced with this plugin is that when a person wants to zoom out to where the site shrinks...the site shrinks...but the banner does not. But then again, who is really going to zoom out for the most part. If that is a Problem, just design a fixed size and leave it alone.
Regardless, am super happy with this plugin, and am planning on using it despite the lack of support. Am super happy.
If you are new to using plugins, and understanding html and configurations...you might get a bit frustrated trying to learn how all of the settings work. But just be patient. Once you get the hang of it..it works.
Oh and one last thing. When ever I have to make a change/modification to the banner, I don't have to go and add the banner to the page(s). Just do the edits in the Piecemaker menu area, and all of the banner(s) automatically update. Am loving this!!!!
Good luck.

My host is an out-of-the-box Ubuntu 12.10 simply connected to Wifi.
I installed VirtualBox, and then a few Linux and Windows 7 Pro guests on it, all with default VirtualBox options (NAT).
I reboot them every day.
Yesterday all had network access.
PROBLEM: Today all the Windows guests says "No Internet access".
Linux guests still have network.
As an experiment, I created a new guest VM, installed Windows inside. Result: no network.
All Windows and Linux guests are out-of-the-box, I did no network tweaking whatsoever. Below is their VirtualBox-side network configuration just in case:
(2 years later: exact same problem happened, a VM that was working yesterday... same solution)

Oh, my aching feet!

Last Tuesday, Larry and I drove to Brunswick for a doctor's appointment. Despite the fact that the calendar says Spring is here, the temperatures were nippy and the wind blustery. We were nearly to the car when a blast of icy wind stopped us cold. We decided we'd better run back in for coats—just in case. Arriving a tad early for the appointment, we parked on a side street downtown and settled in to wait. Larry pulled out his ubiquitous novel and started to read.
The clock in the car said 11:50. Lunchtime.
To my left a lady emerged from an office and headed across the street toward Hannah's Café. She wore a coat, which she gripped against the wind, leaning into the powerful blasts to keep her balance. Her high heels were working against her progress. By the time she crossed the street, she was limping. She disappeared into the café but soon returned carrying a bag. The return trip on those stilted heels appeared even more painful.
I sat and watched as several professional women made the same trip. Apparently Hannah's Café serves superb lunches, good enough to entice those poor women across that broad street in such bad weather. Clothes proclaim whether a woman is professional or not. Suits, dresses, skirts, slacks, etc, along with those impossible shoes tell the tale.
"Larry, look at that poor woman struggling across the street in her high heels," I said, nudging him to pull his attention away from Clive Cussler for a minute.
We watched her struggle for a few minutes, more with her high heels than with the wind.
"Why would any woman torture herself like that?" he asked.
"Well, because society tells us from birth that high heels are sexy and make us look beautiful," I said. "However, if these women could sit in this car and watch themselves, I'm fairly sure they'd agree that more practical shoes would be better, at least for today."
He went back to his book, and my mind went galloping away with this idea of society's demands on us. Men wear ties and complain about them. I see men tugging at them, constantly adjusting, and pulling them off at first opportunity. Several professional men I know keep ties in their pockets for emergencies.
And then, ladies, let us consider for a minute that tortuous garment--the panty hose. I use that word on purpose. It means twisting, meandering, convoluted, and I can assure you that after you wear a pair of panty hose all day, they have twisted and meandered away from their original morning position. The first school system I worked for required ladies to wear panty hose and heels. That rule didn't last very long. Women teachers were threatening to sue. Panty hose are itchy, one size certainly doesn't fit all, and I'm not even sure that any size fits any body. Perhaps my height is the problem, but I've never really found panty hose that fit me right. I am nearly 6' tall, far taller than the average woman. That created a problem with heels for me, too, back when I wanted to wear them. Even in flats, I towered above everyone else; why on earth would I want to don a pair of high heels, even if walking in them were comfortable?
If we listen to the dictates of society about our fashions, chances are pretty good that we'll be miserable. Look at women's dress clothes, for example. They are made for looks, not for comfort. In the wintertime, we freeze or wear heavy coats. In the summer, well, never mind—there's no such thing as comfort in Georgia in the summertime. But I hear people complaining all the time about dressing up. Does any one actually like dress clothes?
My whole life I've been told that wisdom comes with age, and I really think that in this case, it's true. Older people dress for comfort. We've learned to do so through years of torture. Too bad we couldn't learn before we ruined our feet.

INDIA: Audi starts Q7 assembly
By Graeme Roberts | 9 November 2012
Audi has started Indian assembly of the Q7 luxury SUV at its Aurangabad plant, in the Indian state of Maharashtra.
Up to 1,000 will be built a year to supply the Indian market. After the A4, A6 and Q5, this is the fourth model to be assembled in India.
"Local production of the Audi Q7 is part of our long-term growth strategy in India, one of the most promising auto markets in the world," said Audi production chief Frank Dreves.
"The very good infrastructure in the plant, efficient working processes, a qualified workforce and a well developed logistics environment, along with the surging growth of the Indian market, were the factors that motivated us to expand the Aurangabad plant."
The Q7 is made in a newly constructed hall at the Volkswagen group plant Škoda Auto India. Production of the Q3 in the new 20,000 sq m (215,278 sq ft) extension is planned from mid-2013.
"Local production of the Q7 means Audi India is now building a second Q model locally. That will reduce waiting times for our customers and we will be able to offer a wider range of versions," said Audi India chief Michael Perschke.
Increasing demand for the Q SUVs has had a major impact on the brand's growth in India: in the first 10 months, the company increased sales 55% to 7,273 units, well ahead of the 5,511 cars sold in 2011.
Audi will have 25 dealerships throughout the country by the end of this year.
Sectors: Emerging markets, Vehicle manufacturers, Vehicle manufacturing

Beauty may only be skin deep, but when you look good on the outside, you can't help but feel chipper and more confident from the inside. Beauty therapy is an umbrella term for hundreds of treatments for your skin, hair, nails and make-up - everything you need to make sure you're looking 'effortlessly' beautiful.
Your skin is your body's largest organ and it has a big job to do, coping with everything the elements and your hormones can throw at it. So, it's a bit much to expect it to stay soft, supple and blemish-free without a little bit of help every now and then.
There are dozens of skin treatments available, but the most beauty salons offer core treatments such as body wraps, exfoliating scrubs, tanning (fake or using sunbeds), and facials. If you suffer from a severe or specific complaint, such as acne or eczema, it might be best to visit a qualified dermatologist.
You might be a dab hand with the mascara wand, but we can all learn a little from the experts. Make-up masterclasses are perfect for women who want to improve their skills and are becoming more widely available for men who want to enhance their looks with the more subtle products available.
As well as lessons, most beauty salons have make-up artists who offer special-event makeovers and wedding make-up for the big day.
It's a love-hate relationship: some hair we love and spend hours keeping glossy and neat; other hair we're less keen on (usually the short, fuzzy type), which we'll do anything to see the back of.
When it comes to the good sort - our much-loved manes - a hairdresser or beauty salon can offer a number of treatments including cutting and colouring, of course, but also deep-conditioning treatments and styling for special events.
If you've any unsightly fuzz to get rid of, most beauty salons can offer you quick-win, temporary measures such as waxing, bleaching or threading. For longer-term options, though, look out for salons and clinics offering electrolysis or laser hair removal.
Tame your talons with a shape, polish and a lick of colour. Whether you want a nourishing treatment for natural health or you'd like acrylic extensions for impressive length, most beauty salons and nail bars will offer both.

In this provocative yet persuasive book, now in paperback, Eric H. Cline uses the tools of his trade to examine some of the most puzzling mysteries from the Hebrew Bible and, in the process, to narrate the history of ancient Israel. Combining academic with an accessible style that has made him a favorite with readers and students alike, he lays out each mystery, evaluates all available evidencefrom established fact to arguable assumption to far-fetched leap of faithand proposes an explanation that reconciles Scripture, science, and history.
Numerous amateur archaeologists have sought some trace of Noah's Ark to meet only with failure. But, though no serious scholar would undertake such a literal search, many agree that the Flood was no myth but the cultural memory of a real, catastrophic inundation, retold and reshaped over countless generations. Likewise, some experts suggest that Joshua's storied victory at Jericho is the distant echo of an earthquake instead of Israel's sacred trumpetsa fascinating, geologically plausible theory that remains unproven despite the best efforts of scientific research.
Cline places these and other Biblical stories in solid archaeological and historical context and reserves judgment on ideas that cannot yet be confirmed or denied. Along the way, our most informed understanding of ancient Israel comes alive with dramatic but accurate detail in this groundbreaking and entertaining book by one of the rising stars in the field.
About the Author
Eric H. Cline is professor of classics and anthropology and director of the Capitol Archaeological Institute at George Washington University. An active archaeologist, he has excavated and surveyed in Greece, Crete, Cyprus, Egypt, Israel, and Jordan. His many books include "From Eden to Exile: Unraveling the Mysteries of the Bible" and "The Trojan War: A Very Short Introduction".

Rumor – Blockbuster UK list has PS Vita down for October 28 release
A Blockbuster UK flier has PS Vita down for an October 28 release in the country, if an advertisement sent in by an IGN reader is authentic. According to the listing, the handheld is also down for a release the same day in Europe. Sony told IGN Vita would get a "phased global release" this holiday season, but failed to confirm whether Europe would be part of this phase or not. Blockbuster has yet to get back with IGN on the matter.

Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by fragile bones and high susceptibility to low-trauma fractures. It is a serious health problem, especially in elderly women. Bone mineral density (BMD) has been employed most commonly as the index for defining and studying osteoporosis. BMD has high genetic determination, with heritability ranging from 50 to 90%. Various genemapping approaches have been applied to identify specific genes underlying osteoporosis, largely using BMD as the study phenotype. We review here the genetic determination of osteoporosis as defined by BMD and discuss a fundamental issue we encounter in genetic research in osteoporosis: the choice of phenotype(s) to study. We briefly summarize and discuss advantages and disadvantages of various approaches used in genetic studies of osteoporosis. Finally, we review and discuss the current status for mapping and identification of genes for osteoporosis. We focus on linkage studies in humans and quantitative trait loci mapping in mice to supplement the already extensive reviews of association studies made by many investigators for candidate genes.

The Doctor
Recurring Role
The console room the second Doctor and Jamie use is the one in use prior to The Five Doctors.
"Androgum" is an anagram of the word "gourmand".
Revealing Mistake: As the Doctor passes out from the gas, the wires holding him up can be seen, contrasted sharply against the white smoke.
Revealing Mistake: When the Doctor falls onto the wires, the supports nearly collapse.
Revealing Mistake: When the Doctor pulls himself up and into the service duct, the wall nearly falls down.
The sixth Doctor faints when the second Doctor is supposedly put to death, and later theorizes that a time embolism could explain how he could be alive now when he died earlier. Later, he learns that his earlier incarnation was not killed and admits that his theory about the time embolism is also wrong. But what made the Doctor faint?
The episode opens with the Second Doctor and Jamie on a mission for the Time Lords. This seems unlikely: the Doctor had fled Gallifrey and apparently didn't make contact with the Time Lords until the penultimate episode of The War Games, whereupon he was tried, executed and exiled to Earth, while Jamie was returned to the point in time just before he joined the TARDIS (at the end of The Highlanders).
However, we know that the Doctor's personal history, as established in the original series, has been altered, as he had helped the Time Lords on various occasions prior to The War Games (in The Three Doctors, then in The Five Doctors), so it is possible that the Doctor earned a reprieve from his sentence.
Peri: Perhaps you should see a doctor.
The Sixth Doctor: Are you trying to be funny?
The Second Doctor: Jamie, don't go wandering off. Stay with me.
Jamie: Do I ever?
The Second Doctor: It has been known.
The Doctor: Jamie, some of the most brilliant scientists in the Universe have assembled here to work together in pure research. I don't want them to know that I've arrived.
Jamie: Why not?
The Doctor: Think of the commotion. They'd all be scrambling around wanting my autograph.
Shockeye: I'm not interested in the beliefs of primitives! Only in what they taste like.
The Doctor: Mainly decaying food... and corpses. That is the smell of death, Peri - ancient must, heavy in the air... fruit-soft flesh peeling from wet bones... the unholy, unburiable smell of Armageddon. Nothing quite so evocative as one's sense of smell, is there?
Peri: Circular logic will only make you dizzy, Doctor.
The Doctor: What's the use of a good quotation if you can't change it?
Novelisation: Doctor Who - The Two Doctors by Robert Holmes (ISBN 0 426 20201 5) first published by W H Allen in 1985.
DVD: Doctor Who: The Two Doctors (BBCDVD 1213) released in September 2003. Released in U.S.A./Canada (Warner Home Video E1994) in June 2004.
Video: Doctor Who: The Two Doctors (BBCV 5148) released in November 1993. Released in U.S.A./Canada (Warner Home Video E1277) in June 1995.
This story was originally intended to take place in New Orleans. When this proved prohibitively expensive, Robert Holmes had to rapidly rewrite the script for Seville.
The opening scenes with the second Doctor and Jamie in the TARDIS are filmed in black and white as a salute to the Troughton series. Colour was not introduced to the series until the arrival of the third Doctor.
This story was written with the First Doctor (to be played by Richard Hurndall, reprising the role from The Five Doctors) and Susan in mind. The untimely passing of Richard Hurndall made this impossible and the script was rewritten for the Second Doctor and Jamie. Writer Robert Holmes explained later that he had been under the mistaken impression that it was the Second Doctor, rather than the Third, who had undertaken missions on behalf of the Time Lords, which goes some way to explaining the reason behind the continuity problems raised by this story.
This story was broadcast as 6 25-minute episodes in the U.S.A.
The food-crazed Androgums draw their name from an anagram of gourmand.
Working titles for the story included Parallax, Creation, The Seventh Augmentation, and The Androgum Inheritance.
There is a reference to Victoria being absent due to her 'studying graphology', placing this story somewhere between the end of The Evil of the Daleks and The Fury from the Deep, from the Second Doctor's perspective.
The story was commissioned after Patrick Troughton and Frazer Hines enjoyed working on The Five Doctors so much they requested to return again.
This story features extensive location filming in and around Seville, Spain.

What gets me about this article is that if you read what it actually says, and ignore the headline, the people who "diet" twice a week are actually on the Mediterranean diet, they're just cutting out carbs 2 days a week and limiting their calories to 650 a day. Anyone who know anything about fitness and nutrition knows that eating less will help you lose weight, regardless of what types of food you eat/avoid. So long as you are eating the same average amount of calories the other 5 days of the week. It bothers me that these "studies" always promote their finding as something totally new and unheard of, when really it's just applied common sense. Plus, the headline implies that all you need to do is diet 2 days a week, and then eat what you want for the rest of the week.

Not limited to mortgage REITs, panic grips another favorite of income investors, closed-end investment funds - notably those trading far above NAV for seemingly no other reason than their fat yield. The payouts on many of these are sustained by digging into capital rather than by earning a return on it. PGP -7.5%, PHK -7.8%, PHT -5.5%.

This was actually one of the tells in the Great Depression if you go back that far. Back then, there were a ton of closed-end funds, especially because there were no mutual funds. The most popular ones were the highly leveraged ones run by "famous" managers who produced huge returns in the bull market. In addition to being 2x or 3x leveraged, these funds also sold at huge premiums to NAV. One by one, these funds fell, leaving many of their investors with a total loss.

I'm having difficulty trying to get a smooth schedule going that allows a group of 5 bloggers to collaborate, discuss and indicate what blog posts are upcoming on a calendar, task management, etc. Are there any WordPress users on here that found a good solution in this regard? We're using Google spreadsheets now and it's awful. I was wondering if there's a way to do this internally within WordPress or if there's a good tool (Basecamp maybe?) that's intuitive enough for us to use? I'm also looking at the plugin Collabpress as well http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/collabpress/
but I'd like to know what solutions others have used if there's anything else. Any help appreciated!

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - Montgomery police have filed a reckless murder charge against a Prattville man for causing a deadly collision on a street near the downtown area.
According to police Captain Huey Thornton, accident investigators allege 26-year-old Patrick Anderson Barnes Jr., was under the influence of alcohol and was speeding when he ran a red light and collided with another vehicle.
The wreck killed a 22-year-old driver. The crash occurred in the early morning hours on May 17.
Thornton said Barnes surrendered to police Thursday.
Bond was set at $75,000.

Walmart Dabbles in Higher Ed

The Walmart on Campus program began in 2011 with the opening of a 3,500-sq.-ft. shop at the University of Arkansas. Earlier this year, a campus store debuted at Arizona State University in Tempe, and a third unit is set to open later this year at Georgia Tech in Atlanta.
A Walmart spokesperson describes these stores as "an opportunity to bring low prices to students, reach new customers and serve our on-campus customers in a convenient way." The stores don't compete directly with the colleges' bookstores; Walmart has no plans for moonlighting in the college textbook business. The stores sell general merchandise, health and beauty items and some groceries, along with providing pharmacy services -- including the retail giant's $4 generic prescription drug program.
While Walmart continues to emphasize that they are testing this format, the timing of this trial could not be more fortuitous. Along with rising tuition and student loan costs, new research indicates that the price of housing and food trumps tuition costs for students who attend two- and four-year public universities in their home states. The research, compiled in a College Board survey, finds that while tuition for students attending public four-year schools in their state averaged $8,655 last year (a 5 percent jump from 2011), they paid $9,205 for housing and food.
Chances are that Millennials will not only appreciate the prices at the campus Walmart store but begin to develop an affinity for the brand, associating it with the good times they had at college – a connection that could go a long way toward building a lasting relationship.

Patheon negotiated a contract with Adventrx covering formulation, fill, and finish of the latter's lead candidate ANX-188 (purified poloxamer 188) for clinical trials, including a Phase III study projected to start this year against sickle cell disease. Adventrx deal with Patheon follows on from an agreement signed earlier this month with Pierre Fabre, for manufacture of the ANX-188 active ingredient.
ANX-188 is an aqueous solution of a purified form of poloxamer 188, a nonionic, block copolymer agent that has been shown to improve microvascular blood flow by reducing viscosity, and has potential applications in a range of disorders including complications arising from sickle cell disease. Adventrx says decades of research has demonstrated that P188 binds to hydrophobic surfaces that develop when cells are damaged and restores normal hydrated surfaces, but has little or no activity in normal, healthy tissues. Research has in addition demonstrated that P188 prevents adhesion and aggregation of soluble fibrin in the blood and maintains the deformability of red blood cells, the nonadhesiveness of unactivated platelets and granulocytes, and the normal viscosity of blood, the firm claims.
Nonpurified and purified formulations of P188 have previously been studied in a range of clinical trials as a potential treatment in acute myocardial infarction, sickle cell disease, and malaria. In contrast to previous formulations, however, Adventrx' purified P188 has been designed to eliminate certain low molecular weight substances present in nonpurified P188, which it believes have been primarily responsible for elevations in serum creatinine levels observed in prior clinical studies of nonpurified P188.
Although the firm is initially developing ANX-188 for the treatment of sickle cell disease-associated complications, it aims to develop ANX-188 for other indications in house, and/or through collaborations. Adventrx is separately developing two formulations of anticancer drugs. Exelbine (ANX-530) is an emulsion formulation of vinorelbine that the firm claims results in a lower incidence of injection site reactions. ANX-514 is a detergent-free emulsion formulation of docetaxel, which is in development to negate the current need for pretreating patients with corticosteroids in order to avoid the toxic effects of the detergents currently used to solubilize docetaxel.

AbstractThe goal of the proposed Phase I work is to demonstrate the feasibility of developing 1.55 mm WDM tunable filters by using photonic band crystal, and to establish the technical foundation for the fabrication of the tunable filter. This proposed innovativeapproach will permit the development of integrated microscale tunable filters based on Si technology. It has the following characteristics; i) Device size can be drastically reduced to the 10 ¿m scale, which is at least three orders of magnitude smallerin area, ii) Alignment of the optical fiber at the input and output edges does not need to be precise due to no waveguide structure, iii) There is no zero order and higher order diffraction that creates unwanted ghost beams. That is almost 100% conversionto the out put beam.This new type of WMD tunable filters based on the photonic crystal and Si foundry will reduce the size of device by three order of magnitude and much improved performances. It will be applicable to multi-channel dense WDM filters,routers, and switches in fiber optic communications as well as military applications. This would revolutionize the device technology in fiber optic communication.

I am trying to backup some files that have been encrypted by a 3rd party solution we use in work. I would like to back them up in their unencrypted state as our backup solution has robust encryption option. It's also worth noting that the files do not need the 3rd party software to be of use to us.
The 3rd party solution has very little documentation on their encryption process but I have the key which is stored in the database that indexes the encrypted files. I also have access to the files which the databases references.
The only problem is that I don't know what encryption algorithm the 3rd party company used to encrypt the data.
Is there any technique I can use to determining the type of encryption used or is there a software tool that would allow me to easily try a number of different decryption routines and a set password?

Postdoctoral Fellow
rloconte AT berkeley DOT edu
Roberto received his B.S. and M.S. in Physics Engineering from the Politecnico di Milano (Italy) in 2009 and 2012, and his M.S. in Engineering (Microelectronics) from the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in
Stockholm (Sweden) in 2012, with a final project in Spintronics. Roberto joined the Institute of Physics of the Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz (Germany), where
he received his Doctorate in Physics in December 2015. His PhD project was focused on the study of spin-orbit torques and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction in low symmetry magnetic heterostructures.
After he completed his PhD, Roberto joined the Bokor Group at UC Berkeley in March 2016. His current research topic is the investigation of magnetic DW motion in multiferroic heterostructures, which seem to offer a new path towards the development of energy efficient memory, logic, and microfluidic devices. X-ray photo-emission electron microscopy, MOKE and Kerr microscopy are some of the experimental tools employed in his esperimental work.

y-yang AT berkeley DOT edu
Yang got his B.S. in mathematics and physics from Tsinghua University, China. Yang works on studying ultrafast spin dynamics with femtosecond laser. To investigate ultrafast spin dynamics triggered by
ultrashort laser pulse (60fs), he built up a Time-Resolved Magneto Optic Kerr Effect (TRMOKE) setup. With this we are able to probe the spin dynamics within one picosecond.
He is working on projects such as heat assisted spin-hall switching and ultrafast all-optical switching of GdFeCo.
Akshay Pattabi

His research interests include nanomagnetism and ultrafast magnetization dynamics, and he is currently working on a project on Spin Hall Effect. Spin Hall Effect is the creation of a spin imbalance transverse to the direction of charge flow in materials with high spin-orbit coupling. Potential applications of this phenomenon include integration into spintronic devices for memory and logic. The aim of the project is to measure Spin Hall Effect in different metals optically through magnetization induced second harmonic generation.
