Beale's shoulder "popped out" momentarily during the second
half of his team's 30-13 loss to the Brumbies at AAMI Park.
Worryingly, the injury also occurred twice last year but the
Rebels say they have no concerns about Beale requiring
surgery or being sidelined for a lengthy spell.
"All signs at the moment are that he will be right," said
coach Damien Hill.
"If you play a lot of footy in the front-line you're going to
get tested defensively more often than not.
"There are players with (injuries to their) ankles, elbows,
knees; they all manage them.
"They rarely go into a game feeling 100 per cent - there's
always something they're managing.
"It's just the nature of contact sport."
Hill said he would have brought Beale from the field if
fullback James O'Connor was able to return from a head knock
and shifted him to the playmaker's role.
But Beale won't be moved out of the front line of defence and
replaced by O'Connor against NSW in Sydney on Friday night.
"Not at this stage," said Hill.
Beale started in red-hot form against the Brumbies but faded
as his team failed to make the most of their opportunities
and surrendered a 13-12 halftime lead.
"That's what it boiled down to," Hill said.
"The opportunities the Brumbies had, they took."
Hill said his side was still in the contest until the 55th
minute but injuries to Beale, O'Connor, Scott Higginbotham
and Rory Sidey and a yellow card to Jarrod Saffy ruled out a
"I'm not judging them too harshly," he said.
"There was a lot happening in that time to react to.
"The positive for me was their effort."
With O'Connor a certainty to play, Hill didn't forecast any
changes to the starting 15, although there could be some new
faces on the bench.

I want to build a dedicated home file server that will also be used for streaming numerous video files. Does the SATA bandwidth matter if I will be using 1tb 7200rpm drives? Also, would I be able to downgrade the drive in any way without noticeable performance hits (disk speed)?
The SATA bandwidth does not matter.
Even relative old SATA-II (3.0 gigabit/sec) is able to push 270 MB/sec.
The only exceptions to this are:
Streaming video files does not require a high RPM disk since the data is usually read sequentially. There is no advantage in using 7200 RPM drives for this. A 5400 RPM drive will work just fine, and might use less power and generate less heat.

Hey all!
Thanks a bunch to Kabi and this community for helping me out. My previous problem was having a gaping "BLOGROLL, SOCIAL CONNECTIONS, RECENT POSTS" dead smack in the middle of my blog. Between the help of kapi and other posts with the exact same problem, I deleted the footer code and finally got rid of them
The next problem is a bit of a doozy. I have a large space filled with nothingness at the bottom of the site. Does anyone know which code to alter to get rid of it? I also want to get rid of the page links at the bottom.
Esssentially I want this

to look like this

Warning: these sites are of an adult nature :P
My footer code is as follows...
[code moderated - please use the pastebin]
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks a bunch!

And as i hav said before upgrades of troopers. And i also like the idea of changing the insides of ships because it would be cool if your in your own ship with your own technology and base then when you raid the enemy its totally diffrent thats what i want in the real games its fly to enemy OMG its the same wow! amazing that would be a cool change
another cool change WHATEVER YOU DO DONT CHANE THE MAIN VEHICLE OR GEONOSIS for the clones yea its tottaly awsome PS i also think its very unfair how the galactic war thing gets to play on alot of ep 1-3 maps when we cant even play on hoth for clones! i mean the AT-AT or what evers look like the geonosis clone vehical respawn thing and since rebles get ships droids could have s uper speacial level where there allowed there ships or we could let them use the reble thingys they fly in hoth
Mmmm.. A bit confusing for me with the text you wrote, but i think i agree with you.
Bigger capital ships were u can fight a war within.
And by the way you said something about AT - AT (imperial walkers) in hoth, well before the AT - AT there was that tank that you can see rolli'n in episode 3 on kashyyyk. It had many weels so it wil be very unlikely it will ever be used in hoth cuz that thing is way too fast.
And why would you want the clones on hoth, just stay to the timeline of battles from the movies

This Thing Called Love (1940)
I understand...
That after seeing this film newlyweds Ronald Reagan and Jane Wyman built their home like that of the house in this movie. They even got the plans from the studio. They lived in that home through their 8 year marriage. This was where they raised Michael and Maureen. A second daughter Christine died in 1947 at the age of 9 hours. Jane Wyman sold the house after their divorce became final in 1949. From exterior shots of the residence it looked to be very modern with lots of stonework and steel. Wyman insisted no wallpaper and the interior was stained pine wood with very modern touches which were the rage in the late 1930s and early 1940s; it must have been a stunning house. Know it had a pool and a glorious view of Los Angeles and the Pacific Ocean off in the distance.
Just for You (1952)
Janie and Bing and Ethel Barrymore too; what a treat!
We all knew Jane Wyman was wonderful with her melodramatic box of kleenex roles she did so well but what a flair for comedy... And her singing voice; what a surprise! As in many actors lives, art imitated life in this movie; Bing Crosby's wife Dixie Lee, was suffering from terminal cancer in 1952 and died before the end of the year. Bing shows a rare vulnerability we didn't see in his other films. And his talk to the soldiers in Alaska towards the film's end about being too late with his son; sounds like he was speaking to the 4 sons he and Dixie had. He wasn't a perfect father but he tried and did the best he could. Crosby seems preoccupied in this film; probably his wife's terminal illness and death had much to do with it. Crosby's widower character is in keeping with the angst he must have been feeling at this time. Natalie Wood and the actor who portrayed his son are wonderful; Ethel Barrymore-- what can I say about this great icon of stage and screen. Jane Wyman's character Carolina knows just how to keep Bing's character in line with love, adoration and resolve. Wyman fans will love this movie. 50 years later, the costumes, sets and glorious color seem very current; it's timeless!
Johnny Belinda (1948)
Wyman glows...
That Jane Wyman, then in private life Mrs. Ronald Reagan, was able to find the strength to film this masterpiece of her career so soon after the birth and death of her baby daughter in 1947 is a glimpse to us of her utter sheer determination and complete professionalism. Miss Wyman uses milestones of her own life in her acting; she becomes the character and thus we catch emeralds and wheats, the good and the bad, the happy and the sad. It makes for a performance the audience never forgets and the film remains fresh after having had seen it several times. The supporting cast is pure gold. I understand that Jack Warner buried the film for nearly a year after completion and only got on the band wagon after Wyman made him take out an apology in the trades which lead to the big Oscar buildup which snagged Jane Wyman her best actress oscar for 1948. Sadly her greatest professional triumph marked also the death of her marriage to husband Ronald Reagan.

Mark built the cabinetry, using beadboard plywood for the sides and MDF for the crown molding on the uppers and the decorative pilasters on the vanity. The cabinet face frames, including hinged doors and drawer fronts, were discarded samples from a kitchen and bath showroom.

Being a goddess is a lot less fun than you might think. Especially when you're only a half goddess, you only found out about it recently, and you still don't know what you're doing half the time. And when you've just used your not-so-reliable powers to burglarize the booby-trapped office of a vampire mob boss. Yeah, that part sucks. But that's just the tip of the iceberg for Cassandra Palmer, aka the Pythia, the freshly minted chief seer of the supernatural world. After all, Cassie still has to save a friend from a fate worse than death, deal with an increasingly possessive master vampire, and prevent a party of her own acolytes from unleashing a storm of fury upon the world. Totally just your average day at the office, right?

Canadian guitarist Glen Drover (MEGADETH, KING DIAMOND) has collaborated with American singer Todd La Torre (QUEENSRŸCHE, CRIMSON GLORY) on a song called "Discordia". The single will be available for digital download by the end of the week.Says Drover: "We are both very happy and proud of how this song turned out, and believe me, I'm EXTREMELY picky of anything I do!" A 50-second snippet of "Discordia" is available below. Asked if his desire to spend time more time with his family was the reason he left MEGADETH in 2007, Drover told the "Metal Attack MTL" radio show: "No, not necessarily. I mean, it was part of that, but there was a lot of turmoil going on in the band while I was there, and it wasn't as much fun. See, the first couple of years in MEGADETH, it was a lot of fun — it was a very healthy atmosphere — but towards the end it wasn't, and I think that kind of magnified the fact that I didn't wanna be a part of that kind of destructive kind of atmosphere, and I wanted to be at home with my family and then stage the next plan of attack for the next project, whatever that may be." Drover was replaced in MEGADETH by Chris Broderick, who has previously played with NEVERMORE and JAG PANZER. Glen's debut solo album, "Metalusion", was released in April 2011 via Magna Carta Records. Todd La Torre quit CRIMSON GLORY in February 2013, explaining in a statement that "the main reason for my resignation from CRIMSON GLORY is primarily due to its inertia status." La Torre, who joined QUEENSRŸCHE in June 2012 as the replacement for Geoff Tate, became an official member of CRIMSON GLORY in April 2010 and played a number of shows with the band during the ensuing three years.

Patent filing shows a tablet and keyboard integrated in a cover such a way that several foldable options are available.
Nokia has been rumored of working on a Windows 8 based tablet. However, the company is now seems to be working on a tablet with attached keyboard and foldable cover. The UnwiredView claimed to have spotted Nokia's patent application for "Apparatus Cover with Keyboard" and the patent describes the mechanical keyboard that fits as if integrated with the tablet to the cover.
So basically the tablet and the keyboard can be folded into multiple ways as required. From the looks of it, the tablet and the keyboard can be used together or individually. The images illustrate the different ways of folding the cover.
The patent was filed in October 2011 and that was just after Nokia announced its strategic partnership with Microsoft over Windows Phone platform.
Majority of the tablets available today, especially in India, have same design and similar form factor. This novel design might act as a good break from those tablets but the only worry would be the price point.

As per the report, the Nokia phones will be water and dust proof.
Nokia can take solace from the success of Motorola which is on a northward journey since its reentry in the mobile phone business.
The alleged Nokia A1 is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 652 SOC.
The Nokia N73 concept phone is designed by DeviantArt.
The purported Nokia C1 is said to come in two size variants as well as in Android and Windows models.
Nokia C1 is expected to be released next year.
Both the Nokia 222 and Nokia 222 Dual SIM phones come with same specs except that the latter supports dual-SIM connectivity.
Lumia 535 is the first smartphone in the Lumia series that was launched by Microsoft in November last year without Nokia brand name for Rs 9,199.
The Nokia N1 was first device of the Finnish company after it sold its mobile business to Microsoft.
Post the deal with Microsoft, Nokia is restricted from using the Nokia brand name on smartphones until the last quarter of 2016 and on feature phones for 10 years.

Gaby is gathering 2,000 signatures to
Demand Justice For Moon! Be Her Voice!
PLEASE, PLEASE SIGN THIS PETITION AND PUT THIS P.O.S. AWAY FOR THE LONGEST TIME POSSIBLE (I wish that it could be a life sentence) !!!! Please read the story of poor, innocent MOON, look at the picture and see what this evil excuse of a "human" being has done to this poor, innocent, defenseless and sentient baby. The pain of his burns must be excruciating :'( The horrific and brutal scalding of this poor Baby deserves as long a sentence in jail as possible. Do it also for the children he could possibly abuse and the people he might murder, because "people" who abuse animals will also do it to other people. It has been estimated that at least 90% (I think it's probably 100%) of serial killers were previous animal abusers :'( God bless little MOON and please let his emotional wounds heal quickly along with his physical ones :'( <3

Now, we need some analysis -- why are some schools scoring so much higher than others when all are in the same region?
Take out Estacado, numbers jump by 10%. If you look at the majority make up the school, Cooper is the new Frenship. Frenship isn't a bad school but it's not the premier school that people buy houses in that district to attend like it was 10 years ago. When good parents chase a good school districts, non premier districts suffer. It only gets worse with time. Look at Dallas and all the surrounding school districts. Plano wasn't even a dot on the map in 1980 and by 1988 you weren't in a good school district if you were anywhere but Plano. By 1995 people shifted away again,
Cooper will have a 10-15 year run and then it will be Shallowaters turn. Then it will be New Deal or Idalou. There will always be parents who want a stellar education who are willing to move 15-30 miles and commute to get it.
I suspect your analysis is correct. Now, since we know WHY there are differences, we need to figure out a solution. Yes, I realize that it is impossible to increase everyone's income to be equally high, but we must question WHY income inequality should make a difference in education outcomes. Why?
I've read that in Denmark (or is it Finland) that their reason given for having higher education scores is that their economic gap between the highest earners and lowest earners is much narrower than ours. Our "gap" between high and low socioeconomic levels of our population seems quite wide.
I think the solution isn't income driven and people don't need to make more to solve the problem. The problem is what caused the seperation in the first place.
You have some people that are driven to success. That strive to do good at everything. They instill this in their kids for the most part. That's why they mae more, live in nicer houses, and drive nicer cars. Then you have some people that focus on just getting by. It's a way of life learned from birth.
Some neighbors of mine highlighted this for me a few years back. There were two rent houses across the street from mine. One was littered with trash, some used tires, a junk vehicle, and weeds two foot tall. The other you would have never known was a rent house. The yard was clean, mowed, weeded, and very well maintained. The nice rent house had respectful kids that did well in school. The dad worked hard to provide for them and teach them to be hardworkers too. He went to work every day and worked as if he owned the company. He "lived there" and eventually moved to another house in a better school district.
The other bounced around jobs and was too lazy to bring the mail in. He "stayed there" until he couldn't make rent and then he moved down the street to anther rent house he was eventually kicked out of.
The point is that motivated people succeed and lazy people fail. Motivation, success, and determination are deravitives of expectations. These expectations are subliminally transferred thru generations with out a word being spoken.
I have taught "basic," "regular," and "gifted and talented" classes. Although teaching "tracked" youngsters was easier because I could plan more challenging lessons that way, what disturbed me was the GT classes drew the leaders, removing them from the mix of "basic" and "regular." Students tend to learn a good deal of behavior from peers, so it was hard to get some of the lower-scoring youngsters to think beyond the obvious.
"Tracking" is now frowned on, I think, but I can see a problem with mixing all scoring levels, too. When asking for a class discussion, most teachers don't want a few monopolizing the discussion while the others "let" them do it. Teachers have to be creative and figure out ways to have ALL students in a class participate, and sometimes that's very difficult to do. I can see the problems education is dealing with today, but I don't have a solution.
The only advice I would have would be to hire enthusiastic, KNOWLEDGEABLE, teachers. In high school when there are 7 classes per day, generating enthusiasm (which is what a teacher must do every day) for each class is exhausting. I am enjoying retirement!
If a guy could ever figure out how to make the parents better and to expect more, the world would be a better place. If you bring your kids to school and they don't know a single letter, color, or the proper way to turn the pages in a book, they are already way behind. These parents manifest these tendancies throughout the rest of school.
There is a new pre-school readiness program now being implemented in many schools where children begin before kindergarten. It's not just a baby sitting service, it has a curriculum where teachers are mentored in new methods to make sure all students begin their formal schooling years ready to learn in regular classrooms. It's a wonderful program that was begun by a research grant at UT Austin. D-in-law is a teacher-mentor in that program, and she is very enthusiastic about the results so far. The program in some areas have been in place 3 or 4 years -- long enough to see that it is working for those youngsters who begin with several strikes against them; extreme poverty, disruptive home life, little or no early learning stimulation, poor nutrition, etc.

How can I block all traffic for just one port? Take the following situation:
- Ubuntu Desktop VM
- Browser has access to internet (port 80 stays open)
- Ubuntu update services work normally (may not be blocked)
- MySQL graphical client installed
In a normal setup, the MySQL client can connect to a hosted mysql-server, like with Amazon EC2 because outgoing traffic is allowed.
I have the following setup now. I thought this would block 3306, but I still can make connections with Amazon using the MySQL client. I restarted to be sure all rules were applied.
To Action From -- ------ ---- [ 1] 22 ALLOW IN Anywhere [ 2] 80 ALLOW IN Anywhere [ 3] 5900 ALLOW IN Anywhere [ 4] Anywhere DENY IN 3306 [ 5] 3306 DENY IN Anywhere [ 6] 22 ALLOW IN Anywhere (v6) [ 7] 80 ALLOW IN Anywhere (v6) [ 8] 5900 ALLOW IN Anywhere (v6) [ 9] Anywhere (v6) DENY IN 3306 [10] 3306 DENY IN Anywhere (v6)
Some more explanation...
I use a VM to test an existing web application. I make a copy of the live environment, restore that in the VM. The live application is hosted with Amazon EC2. The database server for the live application is not localhost, but another server. With Amazon, you can use a public address for the connection string, something like
22.214.171.124.eu-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com. Internally, they catch this and an internal IP-address is used. This has the advantage that when an instance crashes, and you need to create another instance with another internal IP-address, the connection string doesn't have to be changed.
This address works from outside AWS, so it works from my VM. I can connect from my VM to the production database. I'm aware of it, and know I should edit the connection string. Sometimes I forget about it and then the production database is used. I prefer to get a big fat ugly error message from my test environment telling me that the database connection has failed. (If somehow another client in the local network would want to connect to the mysql-server in the VM, that's not really a problem.)
So how can I get this working? I thought that blocking port 3306 in the firewall might do the job.

Hello WordPressers,
I am trying to figure out the best way to be able to let any visitor to my blog hide or show a specific category. I've searched for options, but I'd like to get some feedback from the community as to what would be the best solution.
Really, the only reason I'm looking for this solution is because I added a 'chicks' category to my blog and I don't want that to make any female visitors shun my site. I figure if I can put a checkbox (or similar) next to the 'chicks' category (or any, for that matter) visitors can choose what they do or don't want to see when visiting.
If anyone has a plugin they recommend, please do.
I'm by no means an expert at php, but I can get by. If someone has some code they'd like to share, that would be equally appreciated.
Thanks for reading,
*apologies if my search skills suck and I missed an obvious post already covering this topic.

I am a cosmology layman. Have been an engineer most of my life, but I'm now technically retired. My work as an engineer, took me into safety audits, logic and logic scenarios, with regards to, the design of,the running and safety control, of industrial plant. Working with many companies such as the Admiralty, BP, etc. Logic scenarios entail, using logic to break down the individual actions/options involved in an action path, and seeing if any of these, can be replaced, to make a better action path. I've always had an interest in space, astronomy, cosmology, etc, but only in the past year, have I got deeper into that interest. I have a personal retirement project, to apply these logic principles, to look at the many actions/options, in some cosmology paths. It will probably come to nothing, but who knows. It keeps me happy.

Sunday night has become a big night for Ant and Dec. As a matter of fact, the TV presenters received the first Bafta of their two decades-long TV career.
Actually, they managed to win Best Entertainment Performance at the Bafta TV awards as they presented work on I'm a Celebrity. When they went on stage in order to get the trophy they could not stop joking.
According to Dec, he did not even expect that they would get the trophy for the series nine.
The pals went back on stage in order to help their co-stars to collect the Best Entertainment award, as well as their presenting skills were called on in order Simon Cowell could receive a lifetime achievement award.
There was also Amanda Holden. The BGT judge got praise from commentators for her outfit which she has chosen by jerself.
Among other winners one could see EastEnders that got the trophy in the category of the Best Continuing Drama. Julie Walters was received the award for the Best leading Actress. She managed to portray Mo Mowlam, former Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, in a Channel 4 biopic.

Bronx Landlords in City-Subsidized Apartment Building Giving 40 Families the Boot
941 Intervale Avenue
Google Maps
Residents of 941 Intervale Avenue in the Bronx were abruptly informed via letter on Tuesday that the building's owner, Aguila, Inc., will no longer be operating the apartment building as a city-subsidized homeless shelter, and they are being forced to leave.
The letter, just three sentences long, was scant on details. "Over the coming weeks and months, you will be provided transfer information for placement in a new shelter," it read. No specific timeline was given, but residents say case managers showed up that day to help them pack up.
In fact, other than a phone number to contact for any "questions or needs while you [sic] stay at the Bronx Neighborhood Annex continues" they were given no information at all.
941 Intervale is one of dozens of privately owned residential buildings in which the City pays as much as $3,565-a-month to house homeless families. Department of Homeless Services calls them "cluster site housing."

Aguila, which operates 18 cluster site shelters in the Bronx alone, is one of the chief beneficiaries of the city program, which was created as a stopgap measure in 2000. That year, there were only 50 units in the program; in 2013, there were more than 2000 units.
Last year Aguila collected more than $28.5 million from the city. (Aguila's late CEO, Robert Hess, was a former DHS commissioner. Hess died in January.)* This, despite the fact that a 2011 audit by then-City Comptroller John Liu revealed Department of Homeless Services didn't check to make sure Aguila's invoices were accurate, or that expenses for which the company billed the city were justified. The audit also found the city paid Aguila $10.3 million for services rendered without a formal contract.
In January, DNAinfo reported that roaches, vermin, leaks, and mold were common at 941 Intervale Avenue--and that was before a fire forced residents to evacuate the building in December.
At the moment, the building has 9 unresolved Department of Building violations, and 12 unresolved Environment Control Board violations, but a D.O.B. spokesman tells the Voice that a vacate order has not been issued for the property.
The memo distributed to residents on Tuesday advised them to direct any questions to program director Jenny Rivera, but when the Voice called the number, Rivera told us to direct any inquiries about the move to the Department of Homeless Services.
The Department of Homeless Services offered a statement with almost fewer details than the notice from Aguila. "The provider has elected not to continue to work with DHS at this site. DHS will work with the provider and the landlord on a plan to ensure the safety and sheltering of these families. It's our expectation that all parties involved will act in a responsible manner, so as not to create a stressful environment for these families."
DHS declined to provide any specific timeline for families who will be displaced, but said that families should not have been made to feel that they need to leave immediately. That's little comfort to residents of 941 Intervale, like Anoinette Redman. In the absence of any assistance from DHS, Redman says she's staying put. "I'll be here. I don't have anywhere else to go."
Residents of 941 Intervale and supporters from Picture the Homeless plan to march from the building to Aguila offices on Wednesday morning at 10 a.m. to protest their treatment.
*This story was updated at 10:32 a.m. on Wednesday, August 6, to reflect the fact that Aguila's former CEO, Robert Hess, passed away in January. The company's website does not a list any CEO at present time.

Grand jury continues meeting
October 23, 2013
WINTERSVILLE — A special Jefferson County grand jury looking into the Steubenville rape case was set to meet today to continue hearing testimony and examining evidence at the county 911 center....
It would be interesting to know what this ongoing investigation and trial has cost the citizens of Jefferson County. The whole thing should never have happened and I am including ALL involved.

Snippets from Rodgers from the MACC Fund event
There were a couple of interesting exchanges last night at the MACC Fund's Evening With Aaron Rodgers. Anyone who has watched Rodgers' locker room interviews or has listened to his radio show on 540 ESPN Milwaukee knows they can expect opinions, insight and a little attitude from Rodgers. That came through again last night in Milwaukee as Rodgers talked with former quarterback Trent Dilfer who now works at ESPN.
Dilfer introduced the topic of the hard work it takes to become a good, if not great, quarterback in the NFL.
"I've gone back to 1983 and have studied every quarterback since 1983 with mechanics and you're looking at the least-flawed mechanics of any player that's ever played," Dilfer said, in reference of course to Rodgers.
"What's interesting about that is I saw him work out as a junior and I did not like his mechanics at that time. At that time we were trained by the same guy who is a great quarterback teacher Jeff Tedford - but there were some things that limited his ability at that time.
"This is a position that can be trained. It's not like God reached down and gave Aaron something better than a lot of other people. He has good stuff but there's dudes out there with better stuff. He's just honed his stuff better than the next guy. Correct me if I'm wrong, but you've built what you've become with a lot of work."
To which Rodgers responded: "So you're saying you're a big Tebow fan…"
Then Rodgers addressed the topic.
"I think the talent difference in the NFL is very small. In my seven years heading to my eighth year, the difference between guys that stick around and guys - I'm the last draft pick from the '05 draft class. They had to release Nick Collins because of some neck injuries. The difference between the guys who got cut year one, two and three and guys like myself or Nick Collins is, we cared more about it. Cared more about being successful. Self motivated, we took our work home with us. It's a different type of player.
"A great example for us is Charles Woodson. He's been in the league longer than anybody on our team. The thing that strikes you about Charles is how much he cares about it. I think there are more guys now but he was the only guy in the training room getting treatment and watching film. Especially our Super Bowl season, he was one of the last guys in the facility watching film with Sam Shields and Tramon Williams. It's no surprise those guys had the season they had, playing with a guy like that who cared about it. He's got great talent but he's really mastered the mental side of the game which really separates the talented guys from the guys who don't stick around football."
Clay Matthews III agreed. From his perspective, coming from a family of football players, "I figured when I was growing up, I was going to play in the NFL.
Now. Statistically…," he didn't finish because the audience was laughing. It wasn't realistic.
"But that's what I was banking on. It wasn't very smart of me. I didn't know what I had to put in." He realized that while at USC.

Familje trevlig .. Mycket trevlig resort, 7 km från Dubrovnik.
Family very friendly.. Very nice resort, 7 km from Dubrovnik.
Enastående gästfrihet. Värdarna är mycket trevlig och omtänksam.
Huset är mycket väl positionerat i en lugn och väl ventilerad plats, men bort från staden, vilket kräver ett fordon.
Den saknar en karta som vi inte har med Windu, synd vi förlorade tre timmar tittar.
lyckligtvis värdarna gjorde allt för att reparera.
Outstanding hospitality. The hosts are very nice and caring.
The house is very well positioned in a quiet and well-ventilated area, but away from the city, which requires a vehicle.
It lacks a map that we do not have by Windu, shame we lost three hours looking.
fortunately the hosts made every effort to repair.
Un lugar peculiar y muy agradable aunque algo alejado del centro. Los anfitriones fueron muy simpáticos.
We are making 2 week road trip along west coast of Croatia. Dubrovnik is our first stop. We have truly experienced many friendly and helpful Croatian people. Boksic family is one among them. Thank you mama, papa and Boksic brothers
The house locates at Mlini/Kupari which both buses 10 and 16 can easily reach the old town. Remember to sit on the left side of the bus on the way to Dubrovnik to catch the sea view. Don't miss both restaurants at end of main road. Grilled food are quite nice.
The place is definitely worth of value, recommended.

I installed this plugin the other day for the 1st time and thought I'd feedback a couple of things.
There looks to be a problem with the installation instructions on W.org as they appear to suddenly end - does this need correcting? It would be nice if it stated where the settings screen is as it wasn't initially obvious.
Secondly, I found that the Tab Order field had been initially populated with an invalid value - I didn't note it down before I corrected it, but it appeared to be a variable name. I'm wondering if you've accidentally assigned a variable name, rather than value, to the field by mistake.
Lastly, it's desperately after some further instructions, particularly on the fields in the options screen, as I don't think it's always obvious what requires entering. This could either be additional information on the README or a drop-down Help on the screen itself.
I hope this helps,

Long story short, do the Richtofen route. It's easy. And the steps are a lot more forgiving than some of these videos have made them out to be. We all jumped on the tops of the elevators. Timing wasn't perfect. But they lit up anyway. Finding and standing on the remaining tiles is just a matter of trial and error. Shooting the orbs was cake. it's worth noting that you need to shoot each orb 10 times in a row with the sliqufier. So shoot one 10 times, it should start to spin. Reload, do the same with the next. Using the Trample Steams was as easy as setting them up on the zombie markers and leading less than 1 wave worth of zombies to them to hit the tower. Figuring out the mahjong tiles was the hardest part. But you were given one chance per wave. It only took us 3 waves to figure out the correct order. Bam. Achievement unlocked. Bring on the next one, Treyarch.
I'm all for helping out others with the achievement. But please, for the love of god... Do NOT message me if you: a)Have never completed an easter egg before, or b)have a shitty k/d. Seriously. I don't mind helping. But I DO mind carrying the 3 other people I'm playing with. It isn't fun for me.
What's your GT? I'd be eternally grateful if you helped me, I got to the flinging part with the last group and we somehow screwed up. I've done EVERY easter egg in Zombies multiple times and this is the last achievement I need for 100% in this game again. Thanks so much in advance!

The Brits like it but a lot of people call their dads and grandfathers Poppy. The sexual connotation comes from women calling their boyfriend/ hubby, Papi
I just find it cutesy and childish but cutesy names are popular overseas

Yes, the papi connection as kind of a sexy nickname for a Hispanic man is sort of problematic, and it also bugs me a little, the grandfather connection...but my real issue here is the phrase "popping her cherry" as a reference for a girl losing her virginity.

Washington's 30-year flirtation with a baseball team seems to be off again. The City Council is balking at the half billion dollars it'll take to build a new ballpark. They want private investors to step up to the plate and finance more of the construction. Major league baseball says it'll start shopping elsewhere if Washington doesn't live up to its original commitment for 100-percent public financing by December 31st. Marketplace's John Dimsdale reports the District's business community has a lot at stake as the negotiations head into the final innings.

Apryl Lundsten reports fashion, not neccesarily finances are prompting many to take a look at pre-fab.

In a unanimous decision, the Supreme Court affirmed both the lower court and Federal Circuit decisions rejecting Bowman's patent exhaustion defense relating to his harvesting of second generation soybean seeds featuring Monsanto's patented genetic trait.
Monsanto invented and patented a genetic alteration that allows soybean seeds to survive exposure to a certain herbicide. Monsanto sold its patented seeds to farmers, subject to a licensing agreement that only allows farmers to plant the seed for a single growing season. Thereafter, farmers have to purchase the patented seeds anew each year for planting. While farmers may sell the crop for consumption or processing, they are not allowed to save any of the harvested soybeans for replanting.
Bowman, a farmer, purchased seeds from an authorized Monsanto affiliate, subject to the aforementioned license for his primary soybean crop. However, in order to save money on a later season crop, Bowman purchased soybeans intended for consumption or processing from a grain elevator and replanted them, in the hopes that some contained the genetic trait of Monsanto's patented seeds. After spraying the late season crop with the herbicide, some of the seeds survived, confirming Bowman's suspicions. Bowman then harvested this second crop and replanted the resulting seeds with Monsanto's patented genetic trait for eight subsequent late season plantings. Monsanto sued Bowman for patent infringement.
Bowman raised the defense of patent exhaustion, arguing that the prior authorized sale of the soybeans from a farmer to the grain elevator exhausted Monsanto's patent rights to control what Bowman did with the soybeans and their seeds thereafter. The Federal Circuit, however, rejected this argument, holding that he had "created a newly infringing article" by replanting the progeny of Monsanto's genetically altered seeds.
On appeal, the Supreme Court affirmed, holding that "the exhaustion doctrine does not enable Bowman to make additional patented soybeans without Monsanto's permission." The Court confirmed its prior holding in Quanta Computer, Inc. v. LG Electronics, Inc., 553 U.S. 617, 625 (2008) that under the doctrine, "the initial authorized sale of a patented item terminates all patent rights to that item," and reiterated that "the exhaustion doctrine is limited to the 'particular item' sold."
The Court also rejected Bowman's arguments that he was only doing what farmers have done with seeds for years and that the soybeans' natural ability to self-replicate or "sprout," like any other seed, is what "made" the additional soybean replicas – not Bowman. The Court held that Bowman's actions in planting the seeds, spraying them with herbicide, and thereafter repeatedly harvesting them exerted control of the reproduction, constituting infringement.
Finally, the Court noted that its decision in this case is limited to the facts at hand, leaving open any further questions regarding the applicability of patent exhaustion to other self-replicating technologies.
With the recent uncertainty over Section 101 patent eligibility requirements, one might ponder the interplay between Section 101 and self-replicating technologies. This is especially true considering last Friday's, evenly-split Federal Circuit decision affirming that certain system, method, and media claims directed to computer software for minimizing risk in financial trades were patent ineligible (see CLS Bank International v. Alice Corporation Pty. Ltd., 2011-1301 (Fed. Cir., May 10, 2013). But at the risk of causing even more tension over the issue, consider whether the progeny of Monsanto's seeds should be susceptible to a Section 101 challenge.
Specifically, should the "natural law" exception to patent eligible subject matter apply to any progeny seed carrying Monsanto's genetic trait? See e.g. Mayo Collaborative Services v. Prometheus Laboratories, Inc., 132 S. Ct. 1289 (2012) (holding that claims directed to a method for measuring the dosage of medication in patients fell under "natural law" and were thus patent ineligible). In theory, Monsanto's invention altering the genetics of the seed should be limited to just that – the alteration and subsequent first production of that very seed altered by humans. Thereafter, the seed's ability to self-replicate is a natural occurrence – the seed now exists in nature, forever able to replicate with all its genetic traits without further human alteration/intervention (think Bowman's sprout argument) – a replication process that normally no one would argue is patentable.
The Court's decision in Monsanto, however, seems to put to rest any such possibility, dismissing Bowman's attempt to raise the issue as an unsuccessful "blame the seed" argument. The Court further acknowledged the importance of incentivizing innovation in the field by protecting such technology. Nevertheless, others inventing self-replicating technologies should be cognizant of the Court's statement limiting its decision to the specific facts presented in Monsanto (though only related to the issue of exhaustion) in light of the apparent expansion of Section 101 applicability.
In the meantime, perhaps Monsanto will consider inventing seeds that do not self-replicate in such a manner (seedless grapes, anyone?).
The Supreme Court's recent decisions regarding intellectual property exhaustion, including Monsanto and an unrelated copyright case, shed light on the Court's March 25, 2013 denial of a petition for certiorari requesting the Court address the extraterritorial reach of the patent exhaustion doctrine.
In Ninestar Tech. Co. Ltd. v. ITC, 667 F.3d 1373 (Fed. Cir. 2012), cert. denied 133 S.Ct. 1656 (2013), alleged infringer Ninestar purchased used/spent Epson ink cartridges in China, refilled them with ink, and then shipped them to the U.S. for resale. The ITC found Ninestar's practice to be infringing upon Epson's patents relating to the ink cartridges.
On appeal to the Federal Circuit, Ninestar asserted the defense of patent exhaustion, arguing that its purchase of the cartridges, even if overseas, exhausted Epson's U.S. patent rights. The Federal Circuit, however, rejected the defense, applying Federal Circuit precedent that patent exhaustion does not apply to foreign sales of patented goods. Ninestar petitioned the high court seeking reversal and an expansion of the patent exhaustion doctrine extraterritorially.
While awaiting a decision on Ninestar's petition, however, the Supreme Court issued a decision explicitly expanding the doctrine of first sale/exhaustion with respect to copyrights outside U.S. boundaries in Kirtsaeng v. John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 133 S.Ct. 1351 (2013). Kirtsaeng, a foreign student studying in the U.S., arranged for family members in Thailand to purchase English-language textbooks and ship them to him in the U.S. for resale. The foreign printed textbooks were much cheaper, and Kirtsaeng's sale of the books at U.S. prices resulted in profit. The publisher of the books sued, asserting copyright infringement.
On appeal, Kirtsaeng successfully relied on the first sale doctrine, arguing that his family members' authorized purchases of the textbooks exhausted any U.S. copyright restriction on their resale, use, and other enjoyment of the books. Agreeing with Kirtsaeng, the Supreme Court explicitly held that neither Congress nor the common law expressed any intent that the first sale doctrine should not apply to foreign sales of copyrighted works.
Based on Kirtsaeng, many believed the Supreme Court might grant Ninestar's petition to address the similar issue of whether patent exhaustion applies to sales or purchases made outside the U.S., or that the Court might at least remand the case in light of Kirstaeng. But a mere six days after the release of its decision in Kirtsaeng, the Supreme Court denied Ninestar's petition outright.
Comparing the facts in Ninestar to Monsanto and Kirtsaeng, however, perhaps the Court was hinting that patent exhaustion was not the correct issue presented. Specifically, Ninestar's purchase of the spent Epson cartridges and subsequent refilling of those cartridges before resale likely removed the products from any protection under the patent exhaustion or first sale doctrines. The refurbished cartridges were thus no longer the "particular item" (see above discussion) sold by Epson and initially purchased by Ninestar. In effect, Ninestar's practice created a new instance of infringement, just like Bowman's harvesting and reproduction of seeds constituted new infringement, or unauthorized copying of Monsanto's patented seeds. In contrast, Kirtsaeng's U.S. sales were mere resale of the same "particular items" initially purchased – Kirtsaeng did not run to Kinko's/Fed Ex, so to speak, and make numerous unauthorized copies of the textbooks to sell.
Accordingly, though the issue of whether patent exhaustion reaches beyond the boundaries of the U.S. still lingers, what appears to be clear is that exhaustion will not save one from infringement liability where the accused instrumentality is not the "particular item" initially purchased.

No good deed goes unpunished when it comes to the United States Environmental Protection Agency's ("U.S. EPA") efforts to regulate climate change. Rather, U.S. EPA's authority to regulate climate change (e.g. greenhouse gas emissions or "GHGs") is currently being challenged by some States, while other States are simultaneously threatening to sue U.S. EPA for failing to act to address climate change.

Recently, the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana issued the Benoit v. Neustrom opinion. 2013 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 55971 (decided April 17, 2013). Here, the parties sought approval that CMS' future interest could be fully satisfied by funding an MSA for less than full value of the Claimant's future medicals. The parties agreed to resolve a liability claim for a gross amount of $100,000. Defendant had an MSA allocation prepared, which concluded that the Claimant would be expected to incur between $277,758.62 to $333,267.02 in future injury-related care otherwise covered by Medicare. Additionally, Medicare had made conditional payments on the Claimant's behalf totaling $2,777.88.

The U.S. Supreme Court decided in Genesis Healthcare Corp. v. Symczyk, 569 U.S. ___ (2013), that a sufficient Rule 68 Offer of Judgment issued to a lone plaintiff in an FLSA collective action prior conditional class certification and joinder of opt-in plaintiffs moots the entire claim – even if the plaintiff rejects the Offer. The 5-4 opinion overruled the Third Circuit Court of Appeal, which held that such a mechanism frustrated the purpose of the FLSA's collective action provision by allowing a defendant to "pick off" the named plaintiff prior to the conditional certification stage.

On April 16, 2013, the U.S. Supreme Court issued its decision in US Airways, Inc. v. McCutchen (No. 11–1285), deciding the issue of whether equitable defenses, such as the principle of unjust enrichment, can override the reimbursement provision of a health benefits plan established under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). Specifically at issue in the case was §502(a)(3) of ERISA, which authorizes health-plan fiduciaries to bring a civil action to obtain appropriate equitable relief to enforce the terms of a plan. The Court held that such equitable defenses cannot override the clear terms of a plan.

Wednesday's United States Supreme Court opinion in Kiobel v. Royal Dutch Petroleum Co. et al., 569 U.S. ___ (2013), has confirmed that the Alien Tort Statute (ATS) has a limited scope and cannot open the doors of United States courts to lawsuits based on ordinary torts committed by companies outside the territorial confines of the United States. Although the Court did not meaningfully address the issue of corporate liability, its narrow holding all but guarantees that ATS will not become an issue in lawsuits against corporate clients in products cases.

On March 20 the U.S. Supreme Court held that the anti-lien provision of the federal Medicaid Act preempts a state's right to take any portion of a Medicaid beneficiary's tort judgment or settlement not designated as payment for medical care. The Court's ruling in Wos v. E.M.A., effectively blocks North Carolina's efforts to recover up to one-third of any damages a Medicaid beneficiary recovers from a third party, as reimbursement for the state's Medicaid coverage of the beneficiary's medical treatment. Wos v. E.M.A., U.S. Supreme Court No. 12-98, issued March 20, 2013 (Slip Opinion).

As parents, or friends of parents, the last weekend has been exceptionally difficult. Friends have debated whether to tell their children what happened in Newtown, Connecticut, and, if so, how to explain what happened. Many of us likely have friends calling for greater gun control, and others calling for greater access to guns for protection, all referencing the Second Amendment. I, personally, have a difficult time with both sides of the issue. On the one hand, I do not understand why a civilian needs an automatic or assault weapon. On the other hand, the founding fathers put the right to bear arms in the Second Amendment, even before protecting the right against unreasonable search and seizure. And the answer to my question can be answered by the question, "Why do you have to be able to say something offensive?" Some reenacting weapons are considered assault rifles because they have sniper scopes too. I know any number of responsible and irresponsible gun owners who take weapons into entirely inappropriate circumstances, but legally. Then again, it took three seconds to reload a rifle in 1787, when the constitution was written. The issue of original intent versus modern circumstances is one that occurs in all constitutional issues, but seems to be more intense in these discussions of gun control, or not, and gun safety. In short, the questions and issues are numberless, and a discussion covering all of them is coming. We will be asked questions by friends because we are lawyers. And we will not necessarily have all of the answers.

In a major decision concerning privilege waiver, the Illinois Supreme Court, in Center Partners, LTD v. Growth Head GP, LLC, ruled that the subject matter waiver doctrine does not apply to privileged communications disclosed in an extrajudicial context. The Court's decision, which can be accessed here, answered a question of first impression in Illinois and will serve as influential authority when other states consider the scope of subject matter waiver.
