WASHINGTON (April 25, 2013)--More than 100 crucial gauges that warn of imminent flooding or lack of needed water will soon be shut down, as part of the federal government's automatic budget cuts, the
U.S. Geological Survey said.
USGS officials told The Associated Press that stream gauges will be shut down across the nation starting next month, some of them in the nine states now threatened with sudden spring flooding.
In rivers where flooding is imminent, such as the Red River near Fargo, N.D., officials are scrambling to keep needed monitors working and make the cuts elsewhere.
The agency's chief scientist for water is Jerad Bales. Bales says details are still being worked out, but at least 120 gauges, and possibly as many as 375, will be shut down because of the cuts.
He calls it a safety issue.

In May 2000, Michael P. Utley, then a 48-year-old stockbroker, was playing in a charity golf tournament at the Pocasset Golf Course on Cape Cod when a storm alert sounded, ordering everybody to seek shelter immediately.
Fifteen seconds later Utley lie sprawled on the green, his shoes blown off, fingers and toes singed, and his hair completely burned – one of hundreds of people struck by lightning in the United States every year.
Technically, Utley was one of the dozens killed because doctors initially pronounced him dead, but they managed to revive him. Utley then spent 38 days in Brigham & Women s Hospital's Intensive Care Unit and another three months and another three months at the Health/South rehabilitation in Braintree, Mass.
Today, more than 11 years later, Utley still bears the physical and emotional scars of the strike, but can't recall specific details.
"I have no memory of being hit," he said in a telephone interview the other day.
The incident did more than leave scars, though – it motivated Utley to educate the public about the dangers of lightning, and a decade ago he helped create the website struckbylightning.org that keeps statistics on injuries and deaths caused by electrical storms, and also as an unofficial support group of sorts for victims.
His best advice is a simple message: "There is no safe place outdoors in a thunderstorm."
I should have heeded Utley's words only minutes before I called him.
A friend and I were finishing a 10-mile kayak outing on Rangeley Lake in Maine on Thursday when a dark cloud appeared over Bald Mountain on the western shore.
"I think we can beat it," I said, realizing we had only about half a mile to go.
Thirty seconds later a squall veered toward us and torrential rain pounded down. We sprinted for shore and were just pulling our boats up when a deafening crash followed a blinding flash. We ditched the kayaks and sprinted for the cabin as more bolts hurtled down.
I told Utley about our close call.
"You were lucky," he said, and I agreed.
At one time authorities suggested people had plenty of time to seek shelter at the first signs of a storm, but Utley said that has promoted a false sense of security.
The narrative on his website explains the evolution of a new, more cautious approach to lightning safety:
In 2001 or so, NOAA started a lightning safety group that contained
the best people in the country on lightning and lightning safety. We
had people form Kennedy Space Center, University of Ohio, Vaisala, (a
private company in lightning detection), NOAA, and the National
Weather Service. I was invited into the group and learned a lot over
the years I was with them. It is because of this group that lightning
safety evolved from what it was to something based on science and what
worked. It was a hard job convincing groups that almost everything
they knew about lightning safety was wrong. Which, by the way is still
the problem.
"The first big move towards a committed front was the 30-30 Rule. If
you see lightning, you start counting, if you hear thunder within 30
seconds, the lightning is closer than 10 miles away and you should be
in a safe place, and stay there for 30 minutes," Utley said.
However, that rule has been bent and misinterpreted, so people started thinking they simply had to get to a safe place if they heard thunder.
"We realized that a
lightning bolt can easily be more than 10 miles long, so it became a
better idea to go inside and count. So the 30-30 Rule, which was
widely pushed and grabbed on to by every group that needed a lightning
safety program, was fast becoming outdated and even dangerous. If you
go to almost any organizations safety web site from NOAA, FEMA, and
many private groups, you will find it is still there," he said.
Utley said the safety team tried coming up with a slogan – similar to
"stop, drop, and roll" that teaches youngsters what to do if their clothes catch fire. One lightning expert, Bill Roeder, devised, "When thunder
roars, go indoors," which struckbylightning.org copyrighted in 2003.
Utley repeats that phrase whenever he visits school groups and makes public appearances. He is a man on a mission, and I give him enormous credit for his passion and dedication.
Utley also encourages people with statistics and stories about lightning to get in touch with him through the website.
He hears from people all around the world and send out emails whenever there's new information or updated casualty data. In 2012, for instance, 212 people in the United States were struck by lightning, 28 fatally. So far this year, 16 have been killed and 191 struck.
All of us who venture into the great outdoors have been caught in storms. Sometimes there's not much you can do – such as when you're hiking above tree line or kayaking far from shore. As always, check the weather reports before heading out, and try to have a "Plan B" in place in the event of a storm.
I hope none of us winds up on Utley's website, and am happy to help spread his word.
Stay safe and remember: "When thunder
roars, go indoors,"

BERLIN -- The T-Mobile team is investigating allegations
German cyclist Joerg Ludewig requested performance-enhancing
substances in 1998.
The 30-year-old Ludewig joined T-Mobile this year, agreeing to a
one-year contract. Eight years ago, he was riding for Team Bayer
"During this period he allegedly requested, in written form,
banned substances, and showed a readiness to turn to doping,"
T-Mobile said in a statement on Tuesday. "The T-Mobile team now
have the relevant written correspondence at hand."
It said the team was in contact with Ludewig and does not "rule
out taking further steps."
"We don't have any direct evidence of doping and we realize
that the incident dates back eight years," said Christian
Frommert, director of sports communication at T-Mobile
"However, even evidence of the intention to use doping
substances gives us reason to investigate the facts around the
affair," he added. "To what extent this will overlap with the
team's agenda to clean up cycling remains to be seen."
Ludewig is not part of T-Mobile's Tour de France squad, which
lost leader Jan Ullrich to unrelated doping allegations before the
race began last Saturday.

U.S. wind energy industry installed 1,649 MW in third quarter, more than Q2 and Q308
The American Wind Energy Association (AWEA) released its third quarter (Q3) market report today. Their news release noted:
Since the early July announcement of rules to implement the stimulus bill, the wind industry has seen over 1,600 MW (enough to serve the equivalent of 480,000 average households) of completed projects, and over 1,700 MW of construction starts. These projects equate to about $6.5 billion in new investment….
The total wind power capacity now operating in the U.S. is over 31,000 MW, generating enough electricity to power the equivalent of nearly 9 million homes, avoiding the emissions of 57 million tons of carbon annually and reducing expected carbon emissions from the electricity sector by 2.5%.
Thank you President Obama and Congressional Democrats (see "EIA projects wind at 5% of U.S. electricity in 2012, all renewables at 14%, thanks to Obama stimulus!"
Here are some more factoids from the release:
The state posting the fastest growth rate in the third quarter was Arizona, which installed its first utility-scale project. Pennsylvania ranked 2nd in growth with 29%, followed by Illinois with 22%, Wyoming with 21%, and New Mexico with 20%.
And from the report:
Texas again gains the largest amount of new capacity bringing the state closer to the 9-GW mark.
A 201-MW project completion in Illinois makes it the tenth state in the "Gigawatt club."
Arizona saw the addition of the first utility-scale wind farm, making it the fastest-growing in the third quarter.
There are now utility-scale wind power installations in 36 states.
Now we need to pass the climate and clean energy bill.

Excellent news but it needs to accelerate even faster. The USA uses 3000 TW/h a year of electricityI believe and growth is 2-3% per year during good economic years I believe. 30 GW of Wind energy at 30% efficiency provides around 87 TW/h per annum so long as the wind is available all of the time of course.
Long way to go but its awesome news
These are impressive growth figures. Now these numbers have to continue over the future as well. It is good to see that Obama his effords are starting to show in actual numbers as well.
For more info on the environment, have a look at this Green News.
It's also nice to see how fast this is ramping up. The US has installed 31,000 MW of wind in the last ten years, which is equivalent to about 10 GW of baseload power. That's 8 nuclear reactors the size of Seabrook, but built in a fraction of the time. The current build rate of ~8 GW/year is about 2 nuclear reactors a year, and it's increasing at 50%/year. The time-to-revenue for these wind plants has to make their investors happy.

I'm using logconv.pl (provided by Sun), to measure performance on my server.
These two metrics results, are worrying me a bit:
Binds: 192164
Unbinds: 111569
In fact the difference between the two it's quite big, how can I determine which are the unbound requests?
As stated by Lodovic:
Many applications just close the connections without sending an Unbind request. This simply can explain the difference.
But the logconv.pl doesn't show details about the unbound requests, do you know any other tools or can you suggest some queries or whatever that can help me find out the root cause?
Do you think anyway that the performances may improve fixing the issue?

Bus Company Vetoes Shooting the President Film Logo
"It's Sept. 11 and we can't say the word 'shooting?'"
An Iowa photographer and Tea Party conservative named Dave Davidson makes a good chunk of his living photographing the many presidential candidates who campaign through his state every four years. So the title of his film Shooting the President is a double entendre, you see. He wanted to advertise this cleverly named work while participating in another documentary involving a bus tour, according to the Des Moines Register. But for some reason, the bus company is not okay with him putting a big Shooting the President logo on its vehicle. Davidson cannot understand this: "It's crazy – it's just a metaphor," he told the paper. "It's Sept. 11 and we can't say the word 'shooting?' Is that what we've come to? It's the English language. The word has two meanings." This documentary is going to be fantastic.

Not true, but this happened to be a particularly interesting question.Hi Stewart, Urban Meyer (at Ohio State), his successor at Florida (Will Muschamp) and his two former coordinators (Louisville's Charlie Strong and Mississippi State's Dan Mullen) all currently have undefeated teams. In your opinion, which of the four men has done the best coaching job thus far with the talent and resources -- or lack thereof -- that he inherited?--Jason P, Woodbridge, Va.First of all ... wow. Between Meyer, Strong, Mullen and the fact that 21 starters or major contributors from Florida's 2008 team currently play in the NFL, it's easy to see how the Gators won the national title that year -- while also completely inexplicable how they lost to Houston Nutt. And former Texas defensive coordinator Muschamp's success so far in Gainesville may help explain why Mack Brown finds himself in his current predicament.As for comparing the four, Meyer is doing exactly what's expected of Ohio State's coach. We didn't necessarily think the Buckeyes would start 7-0, but you know with the right coach they're never going to be down for too long. I'd say much the same thing about Florida, though Muschamp and his staff have unquestionably had a profound impact on that team. In fewer than two years, they've completely reinvented the program and found a way to start 6-0 despite some obvious offensive limitations. If they keep this up, he's a legitimate Coach of the Year candidate. Strong has also done a tremendous job rebuilding Louisville's program from the depths of the Steve Kragthorpe era, and he has the Cardinals squarely in the hunt for a BCS berth. But that's also not unprecedented; Bobby Petrino did the same thing just six years ago.My answer is Mullen. While acknowledging that Mississippi State hasn't played the strongest competition to this point (its best win was last week's victory over 3-3 Tennessee) and could well get exposed once it faces Alabama and LSU, the fact that the Bulldogs are 6-0 and no one's surprised is a testament to how dramatically Mullen has changed the culture in Starkville. Two years ago, in Mullen's second season, the Bulldogs won nine games for the first time in 11 years and just the fourth time since World War II. This year, his team seems headed for at least that many victories, particularly with remaining games against Middle Tennessee, Arkansas and Ole Miss.Mind you, he's doing this at a time when the SEC has rarely been stronger. I loved those late '90s Jackie Sherrill teams, and you may recall the Bulldogs played in the 1998 SEC title game. But things were different then: Alabama was in between probations, LSU was a mess, Auburn had forced out Terry Bowden, etc. This Mississippi State team is not brimming with talent -- it's got a skilled quarterback (Tyler Russell) and a heck of a secondary (Johnthan Banks, Darius Slay) -- but top-to-bottom it's probably the league's eighth- or ninth-most talented team. Yet it could wind up having one of the best seasons in school history. Nice work, Mr. Mullen.As a Texas fan, I'm almost ready to jump on the "Fire Mack Brown" bandwagon. What keeps me from jumping is uncertainty as to who would take his place. Several professional and college coaches are better than Mack Brown, but none of them will leave their current job for Texas. Plenty of coaches would leave their current team for Texas, but I'm not sold yet on any of them being better than Mack Brown. Am I overlooking somebody?-- Aaron Evans, Muskegon, Mich.That's the rub, isn't it? It's easy to sit there and look at Brown's 5-9 record against Oklahoma, his 7-13 Big 12 record since 2010 and his nine straight losses to ranked teams and say, "We can do better than this." It may well be time for a change (though I'd like to see the rest of the season play out before making that conclusion), but even with all of Texas' considerable resource and clout, there's no guarantee the next coach will become the next Nick Saban or Bob Stoops. He could well be Texas' next John Mackovic. Lest we forget, 10-win seasons and top-five recruiting classes have not always been a Longhorn birthright. In fact, the program had only five double-digit win seasons in the 22 years between Darrell Royal's retirement and Brown's arrival.Texas AD DeLoss Dodds knows this, which is why it would take an all-out implosion for him to fire Brown this year. He also knows that this year's likely market of candidates lacks a can't-miss big-namer like Meyer last year or a hot commodity like Brian Kelly in 2009 or Kevin Sumlin last year. It's interesting, because whether Texas jumps aboard the carousel or not, a whole bunch of other notable schools (Auburn, Arkansas, Tennessee, possibly Cal) will likely be seeking just that type of coach. Someone's going to hire Bobby Petrino, but not an image conscious school like Texas. Someone's going to make a run at Chris Petersen, but to this point that's proved futile. Multiple people will make a run at Charlie Strong, but don't be surprised if he stays loyal to Louisville. However, I could see a major program like Texas or Tennessee hiring Iowa State's Paul Rhoads and being very happy with that decision a couple years down the road.So what do you think are the odds that Tennessee will hire Sonny Dykes next season to clean up Derek Dooley's mess the same way that Dykes has cleaned up the mess that Dooley left at Louisiana Tech?--Keary Floyd, Lawrenceville, Ga.So who wins the Sonny Dykes derby: Cal or Arkansas?--K. Preston, Castle Rock, Wash.I stand corrected. There's at least one hot mid-major candidate out there.Stewart, I know the ACC is a joke, but WOW! Clemson and Florida State both have BCS computer averages of 0.000. That is comedy. Is this downturn a natural ebb and flow of college football or is the ACC in trouble for the long run? Adding Syracuse and Pitt seems to shift the recruiting away from the South. In South Carolina, we see most top-notch (especially defensive) recruits going to the Gamecocks over Clemson. This whole thing just looks like the ACC is falling apart to me. Any thoughts?--John, Liberty, S.C.Full confession: When I first started seeing e-mails like this, I assumed there was some sort of glitch on SI.com's BCS standings page. Then I went back and opened the official release and, welp, sure enough, .000. That's a product of both teams finishing outside of the Top 25 in average computer rating (they tied for 28th), in which case they're credited with zero points out of a possible 100. (Alabama, by comparison, which was credited with four No. 2 rankings after removing its outliers, earned 96 out of 100, or .960). Florida State and Clemson suffered not only from their mediocre ACC competitors but also from their nonconference schedules. The 'Noles have played two FCS foes (because West Virginia dropped out) and 2-4 South Florida, while the Tigers have played 1-5 Auburn, 4-3 Ball State and FCS Furman.This does seem like a particularly bad year for the ACC with Virginia Tech and Georgia Tech down, Miami rebuilding, North Carolina on probation and former contender Boston College just truly dreadful. But to suggest the league is having a downturn would suggest it was ever "up" to begin with. The ACC is in much the same place it's been for most of the BCS era, fighting with the Big East to avoid the No. 6 label (in Jeff Sagarin's ratings it's actually seventh, behind the Big East and independents) and perpetually waiting for the return to prominence of FSU and Miami. (By the way -- did you know those two play this week?) Of course, it's hard to compete with the SEC for recruits, but Florida State, Miami and Clemson all had top-15 classes last year. Attracting talent hasn't generally been the problem for the ACC as much as coaching and university commitment have. Perhaps that will change with all that new ESPN money coming in.Good for you, Stewart. You are actually saying some good things about Notre Dame. I used to think you held a grudge against the Irish. No longer.--Joe Reardon, Columbus, N.J.It's interesting that my apparent grudge disappeared at the exact same time the Irish started winning every week.How can Notre Dame fans not notice the credit you give to Notre Dame??--Collin Mapp, Valencia, Calif.Well, at least one did. Progress.Do you think that Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel should be considered as one of the top-10 candidates for the Heisman at this point in the season?-- Scott Jackson, Cordoba, ArgentinaAs of right now, absolutely. Manziel is producing more offense (392.7 yards per game) than all but one player nationally (Baylor's Nick Florence), and, in fact, more than 47 FBS teams. He's 10th in the country in pass efficiency. He's leading the SEC in rushing (112.7 yards per game). For two straight weeks, he's led his team on fourth-quarter drives to either pull ahead (against Ole Miss) or help stave off the Aggies' opponent (against Louisiana Tech). Both games were headlined by long Manziel touchdowns: He had a 29-yard run against the Rebels to draw within one score and a 72-yard run against the Bulldogs to go up by 15 points with 2:04 left, though that still almost wasn't enough.That being said, I wouldn't jump fully onboard on the Johnny Football bandwagon just yet. He's still a freshman prone to freshman mistakes, like his three turnovers against Ole Miss. More notably, he's only faced one top-40 defense to date. That was Florida's, which held him in check during the second half. He'll face three such defenses (LSU, Alabama and Mississippi State) over his next six games, so I'd be surprised if Manziel is still in the top 10 come season's end.But again, he's only a freshman. There could well be trips to New York in Manziel's future.People think 'Bama fans hate everything not coated in crimson and white. I'm here to prove that wrong. Is Steve Spurrier one of the greatest college football coaches of all-time? I think he is. He has taken two mediocre programs and built them from the ground up, and made them into national powerhouses. I'd put him up there with Bear Bryant and my friends think I am crazy.--Michael Ashley, SeattleMichael: It's a good thing you're secluded out in Seattle, not living in Birmingham, because I'm pretty sure that Bear comparison will get you barred from most local barbeque joints. Bryant won six national titles at Alabama and conference titles at Kentucky and Texas A&M. He's in a class unto himself. But I've heard it said that besides Bryant, Spurrier is the best coach in SEC history, and I tend to agree. Florida had never won the SEC before Spurrier got there. He did it six times in 10 years, and he revolutionized offensive football in the process. The winningest coach in South Carolina history, Rex Enright, had 64 wins -- and it took him 15 years to do it (he went 64-69-7). Spurrier, 61-36, will eclipse that mark in merely eight.Obviously, the guy's a Hall of Famer even if he stopped coaching tomorrow. But one might contend that this season -- and in particular, Saturday's game against Florida -- will go a long way toward defining his legacy. He's obviously improved the Gamecocks tremendously and I still believe, even after last week's LSU loss, they've got national title-caliber talent. But they definitely got the short end of the scheduling stick, visiting Death Valley and The Swamp on consecutive weeks. Win this Saturday and they're in good shape to get to Atlanta, where, if Spurrier were to win South Carolina's first SEC title (and first conference title since 1969), his résumé becomes that much more impressive. If the Gamecocks lose, Florida or Georgia likely wins the East, South Carolina possibly winds up back in the Capital One Bowl and history barely remembers his 2012 team. No pressure.Who has had a better 2012 than Tommy Tuberville? The coach some Auburn administrators wanted instead of him, Bobby Petrino, has scandalized himself right out of the game. The coach that Auburn hired to replace him, Gene Chizik, has driven the program to the bottom of the SEC. Meanwhile, Tubs has his team in contention for a conference championship and just knocked off another top-five opponent.--Jim Savage, Orlando, Fla.Tommy is having a great year, all right, but mostly because his team is finally playing defense. I'm sure he's getting a small kick out of the other stuff.Stewart: As part of a running joke with my friends a few years back, we created a fictitious "award" for the offensive/defensive coordinator who seems to get mentioned incessantly by TV announcers, studio analysts, etc. It originated in the NFL (inaugural winner was Steve Spagnuolo in 2008) and has moved to college football, where past winners include Will Muschamp in '09, Gus Malzahn in '10, and John Chavis in '11. Would love your input for an official name for the award, and your favorites for the 2012 winner.--Troy, West Islip, N.Y.Oh, that's easy. It's the Jesse Palmer Award. You could do a Thursday night drinking game based on every time he says, "When I talked to defensive coordinator ..." And this year's runaway favorite is Texas' Manny Diaz. Analysts (myself included) spent the entire offseason talking him up, and now we can't stop talking about how drastically his defense has imploded.The press is saying (unfairly) that Louisiana Tech is out of the BCS picture after its two-point loss to Texas A&M. Ohio is still undefeated, but they're not looking like a BCS-caliber team after several close calls against inferior competition. So what are the odds that we'll be treated to a Bulldogs vs. Bobcats "battle of the BCS busters" in the postseason?--Chris Stvartak, Charleston, Ill.It's only unfair if you think there should be a non-AQ team in the BCS every year no matter what. Louisiana Tech is the best of the bunch this year, no question. I think we can safely say that last weekend's A&M game will prove more exciting than the Big Ten championship game. But if your best nonconference wins came against Illinois and Virginia, both currently 2-5, you probably don't belong in a BCS game.In fact, that's what bugs me about Boise State this year. The idea that this year's Broncos team, which lost its showcase game against what's proving to be an underwhelming Michigan State squad, might get in (quite plausible if they win out) when the 2010 team (which beat 11-3 Virginia Tech) and 2011 team (which beat 10-4 Georgia) did not feels like kicking Kellen Moore in the stomach all over again.As for a Bulldogs-Bobcats postseason tilt, there is one pre-designated MAC vs. WAC bowl game: The Famous Idaho Potato Bowl Dec. 15. Who's coming with me to Boise? ... Actually, that's depressing. There's still the chance Frank Solich's mighty Bobcats can go 13-0. Mind you, they, unlike Boise, are undefeated, and they, unlike Boise, did beat their Big Ten foe -- yet are ranked lower. Why? Either way, if Ohio is 12-1 and Louisiana Tech 11-1, maybe ESPN can broker some sort of deal to move them up the pecking order.Please spare us all the Notre Dame talk. There is no way Stepfan Taylor didn't get into that end zone on second down or fourth down. Replay the tape if you don't believe me. I absolutely hate the homer calls Notre Dame gets simply to make them relevant again. It's amazing the way money can change the game, and even the outcome of games. Just pathetic.--Jason, AtlantaNow that's a grudge. I'm Touchdown Jesus by comparison.

Why risk soldiers lives to go across the river to get a couple prisoners in a night patrol?
The U.S. always had a policy; "No soldier left behind". It has always been "worth the risk" to free prisoners. To some degree this policy was abandoned in Vietnam, as evidenced by the whole POW - MIA movement and evidence of many POWs from that war. However, even in Iraq and Afghanistan we have risked lives to free US prisoners.
Working under cover of darkness gives an advantage to the side that knows the operation is in progress, so Night Patrol made more sense than doing it in the middle of the day.
Dark of night hides actions of soldiers. This makes it so it is actually safer for them rather than more dangerous.

But for the 16 Taieri College pupils on a recent World
Challenge expedition to Botswana and Namibia, the most
sobering experience was seeing children with little more than
the clothes on their backs.
Christine Cleave (15) said visiting the Salmon Boois Junior
Primary School in Aranos, Namibia was "a real eye-opener".
"They have so little, but they don't know any different and
they're happy with the lives they have. It was sad."
She said it provided inspiration for the main purpose of
their trip: to paint four hostel buildings at the school and
replace more than 40 broken windows. The pupils also gave
each classroom a stationery pack and left 16 sports balls and
a set of netball bibs.
The time spent playing with the children and making a small
difference to their lives was the trip highlight, she said.
The month-long expedition aimed to teach the Taieri pupils
life skills and expand their minds outside the classroom.
They spent four days in the Kalahari Desert learning the
skills of the bushmen, before spending another four days
trekking from village to village, being hosted by families
who provided traditional food (mostly maize and beef curry),
and sleeping in traditional huts.
Sam Kirk (15) said life was much more "cautious" there.
"We had to put iodine in our water to make sure it was clean.
"We had to keep everything nice and closed so that bugs like
scorpions couldn't get [in].
"And going to the toilet in the desert - all we got was a
roll of toilet paper and we had to dig a hole to do it in.
"We had to take someone with us to make sure there were no
dangerous animals about."
The trip included a visit to the Okavango Delta in
northeastern Botswana, where they were taken in mokoros
(dugout canoes) to see zebras, giraffes, elephants, hippos
and many species of birds.
Kate Piper (16) said they spent the night on the Delta
listening to lions roaring, hippos growling, and a herd of
elephants walking past their campsite.
They also spent a day on safari at Etosha National Park,
where there were more wild animals, including lions and their
cubs, vultures, and rhinoceroses.
"It was cool. You don't get a feel for how big a lion is
until you see one in real life."
Christine said experiencing the cultures of Botswana and
Namibia, and seeing how other people live, was both humbling
and a major adventure.
"The amount of rubbish on the streets - it was everywhere.
And there were heaps of goats and cattle wandering the
"It wasn't anything like walking up George St in Dunedin."

Cory Booker Successfully Pushes 89-Year-Old Into Retirement
New Jersey Senator Frank Lautenberg will get out of his way.
Five-term New Jersey Senator Frank Lautenberg will not seek reelection next year, the Star-Ledger reports, and somewhere, Cory Booker does a little dance before crafting a gracious tweet. The Newark mayor has not been shy about his interest in the Senate seat, despite it not quite being unoccupied, leading to a terse, generational war of words, but also the most obvious conclusion. Lautenberg is 89 years old and was probably going to retire anyway before Booker got a little overeager.
"I am not announcing the end of anything. I am announcing the beginning of a two-year mission to pass new gun safety laws, protect children from toxic chemicals and create more opportunities for working families in New Jersey," said Lautenberg. "While I may not be seeking re-election, there is plenty of work to do before the end of this term and I'm going to keep fighting as hard as ever for the people of New Jersey in the U.S. Senate." He's expected to make an official statement tomorrow.
While still gruff, it's a change of tone from the last few months: "I have four children, I love each one of them. I can't tell you that one of them wasn't occasionally disrespectful, so I gave them a spanking and everything was okay," the old-timer said in reference to Booker recently. "I'm going to finish the work I'm doing," he added later. "And he should finish the work he is doing instead of traipsing around the country." Expect a few more sick burns before his term is up.
According to the Star-Ledger, Lautenberg's announcement "is likely to set off a fierce primary battle as Democrats ... jockey for the rare open seat," but knowing Booker, he's unconcerned.

I realise the answer should probably be 'as little time as possible' but I'm trying to learn how to optimise databases and I have no idea what an acceptable time is for my hardware.
For a start I'm using my local machine with a copy of sql server 2008 express. I have a dual-core processor, 2GB ram and a 64bit OS (if that makes a difference). I'm only using a simple table with about 6 varchar fields.
At first I queried the data without any indexing. This took a ridiculously long amount of time so I cancelled and added a clustered index (using the PK) to the table. This cut the time down to 1 minute 14 sec. I have no idea if this is the best I can get or whether I'm still able to cut this down even further?
Am I limited by my hardware or is there anything else I can do to my table/database/queries to get results faster?
FYI I'm only using a standard SELECT * FROM to retrieve my results.
EDIT: Just to clarify, I'm only doing this for testing purposes. I don't NEED to pull out all the data, I'm just using that as a consistent test to see if I can cut down the query times.
I suppose what I'm asking is: Is there anything I can do to speed up the performance of my queries other than a) upgrading hardware and b) adding indexes (assuming the schema is already good)?

The Natural History Museum (University of Crete) has recently released the long-awaited book on the nature of Crete, entitled "Crete, a continent in an island" translated by Ben Petre. This publication is an essay by Dimos Tsantilis, a writer and communicator of science, in cooperation with scientists working at the museum, containing more than 350 color photographs (and drawings).
Natural History Museum of Crete has been functioning and operates under the framework of the University of Crete since 1980, being a pioneer institute at national and European level in the following activities:
- Study and Management of the Natural Environment of Crete
- Public awareness, education and sensitisation of local people as well as the visitors of the area
- Link University activities with Cretan society
- Set up a network of Ecological Museums in Greece and throughout the Eastern Mediterranean
Eastern Mediterranean is unique at a global level due to the great ecological and cultural complexity. The evenness as well as the contrast, the stability, many affinities and the special features characterizes the area.
The aim of the Natural History Museum of Crete is the study, protection and promotion of the special features of the area of Eastern Mediterranean.
The foundation and the development of NHMC were favoured by the following conditions:
- The potential of the University of Crete and its ability to promote modern technologies in the field of environment
- The geographical position of Crete, lying it the center of Eastern Mediterranean and the southernmost part of the European Union
- The warm acceptance and support of the local society

The 31-year-old, a silver medallist at the 2004 Olympics in Athens when an amateur, took his record to a perfect 29 victories in as many fights and 26 of those coming inside the distance. Adama was dropped three times on Saturday night before referee Luis Pabon waved off the contest. The 33-year-old Chicago-based Ghanaian's record dropped to 22 wins, with 16 KOs, and four defeats. The first knock-down came at the end of the first round from an overhand right before Adama took to using his reach advantage to keep Golovkin at bay with his jab. But he was knocked down again at the end of the sixth round and when he was put on the canvas in the seventh from a jab, the referee decided he'd seen enough. Golovkin, considered one of the best pound-for-pound (P4P) fighters in the world now wants to fight WBC champion Sergio Martinez of Argentina, also considered a top 10 P4P fighter. "I felt comfortable right from the beginning of the fight, he wasn't easy to box but he never hurt me," said the Kazakh. He said he wants to fight Martinez "to prove who is the best middleweight right now." Golovkin has also been tentatively touted as a possible opponent for light-middleweight Floyd Mayweather or super-middleweight Andre Ward, the consensus top two in the P4P rankings. © 1994-2014 Agence France-Presse Share Facebook Share on Twitter GPlus LinkedIn Pinterest Read More: boxing Gennady Golovkin Osumanu Adama /life/07/27/16/did-you-know-lucy-torres-wore-richards-barong-for-sona/sports/07/27/16/north-all-stars-look-forward-to-playing-for-guiao/business/07/27/16/pse-chief-lauds-dutertes-infrastructure-goals/news/07/27/16/what-senators-think-of-emergency-powers-for-duterte/news/07/27/16/watch-duterte-shows-off-shoes-made-in-marikina

Don't worry it doesn't sound like you were flim-flammed.

I just received my Ghost Ring Sights from Mossberg last night. I was looking over my gun and I have a few questions.
1. I see that the rear sight fits the two inner holes in my receiver. Is the elevation adjustment screw supposed to ride on the receiver, or screw into the rear-most hole?
2. So far none of the local shops can solder the front on, but one shop wants to drill 2 holes in my barrel and front site and screw it down as well as epoxy. He also wants $60 to do it. Is this a good idea?
3. Is the front sight the adjustment for windage?
4. They are supposed to be New, yet they came with no packeging, just an envelope. They also came oily, is this normal? no instructions either. I know how to install them, but hell, even a pack of matches comes with instructions.
5. Is there an alterate method of attaching the front that I can do?
Don't worry it doesn't sound like you were flim-flammed.
The sight screw goes into the receiver hole. The front sight will adjust for windage, you may need to stone or file it a bit to fit the dovetail. Don't go too far and make it loose. A local welding shop does them for us and charges $20. We told them not to heat the barrel too much and to use a steel that could be blued. They had us mark the location for the sight so we were responsible for centering it. No worries. We picked them out of the Yellow Pages because they were close to our shop. I thought about the drill and tap new holes idea, but I'd rather have it welded. I didn't think it would look "right" with screws in it, but no reason you couldn't buy some stainless 4-40 screws and a tap at the local hardware store. Make sure you cut them so that they dont stick in the bore, and deburr the holes you drill. We charge the $20 from the welder, plus an additional $15 if the customer doesn't buy the sights from us. This covers shop time lining it up and marking it, plus fitting the front sight (all I've seen need fitted) and sighting in with the rear sight. Don't forget the Loctite.
Last edited by Superhouse 15; November 22nd, 2006 at 04:07 PM. Reason: oops
I was under the impression the factory silver soldered them on, but i could be wrong will have to go look at my 590.
Just looked at my 500, the bead sight is tapped in and looks locked in with some loctite or something. My 590 sight looks soldered on, the sight appears to be rounded on the base to conform with the barrel. Hope this helps.
I did get the rear on Saturday. I screwed the elevation screw into the rear-most receiver hole and mounted it with the middle two holes, leaveing the forward-most hole vacant. It seems that the screw between the mounting holes on the rear sight is for windage. It looks like it has a limited number of settings and they seem to be far apart. So maybe that is afor course adjustment, and then fine tune it with the front dovetail. Although, I guess I can't expect too fine of an adjustment, it is a smoothbore, so I can't expect a tight group, I just want to be chest size accurate to 50 yards or so.
My friend who is good with shotguns got a group around 5" with 3" magnum slugs at 25yards standing up using my 590 for the first time. I won't mention my groupings
Personaly i would have a smith solder the front on right. and as for accuracy I used a 590 on the NRA police instructors course some years ago , never got a slug out of the 8 ring on a b27 target .
Make sure you get full value out of today , Do something worthwhile, because what you do today will cost you one day off the rest of your life .
We only begin to understand folks after we stop and think .
Criminals are looking for victims, not opponents.

Hello, thanks for this great plugin.
I already found the meta_key _recommended in which the likes are stored. Now I'd like to know if there's a way that the likes are written to this key _recommended with leading zeros? So for example after 12 likes the posts _recommended meta_value would be 0012, instead of 12.
Why do I need this? To sort my posts by this meta_value. (I know that there's also the possibility with the wordpress command sortby=meta_value_num - but this command is bugged so I need to do the sortby=meta_value)
Help would be very appreciated

"GREAT VIEWS AND GREAT BAR FOOD" Top 5 Page for this destination Ras Hotel Tip by DAO
Ras Hotel, Addis Ababa: 76 reviews and 9 photos
The Ras Amba hotel overlooks most of Addis Ababa, has nice looking rooms and is a favourite with wedding parties. It?s mid-priced and considerably cheaper than the Sheraton and Hilton. It offers good rooms, an excellent bar, great views and unfortunately a poor restaurant. The snack food in the bar is good, but the restaurant food is horrible ? never eat there! With all the great restaurants in the city you won?t have any issues getting a good meal. It?s a healthy walk from the Ras Amba to the Haile Selassie Church and Arat Kilo, but you can get a shared taxi just outside. It?s relatively quiet around here at night.
They take major credit cards, have a website and have more than 1 email address to book. You can also telephone.

Legislature poised to elect new guard chief
MONTPELIER — The Vermont Legislature is getting ready to elect the next chief of the state's National Guard.
The secret-ballot election is set for Thursday.
There are three candidates to succeed Maj. Gen. Thomas Drew, who became interim adjutant general last summer after his predecessor Maj. Gen. Michael Dubie left Vermont to take a position as deputy commander of the United States Northern Command, the organization that oversees the defense of North America.
Air Guard Brig. Gen. Steven Cray, of Essex Junction, Col. Darryl Ducharme and retired Col. Michael J. Bullock of Hinesburg are all running for the position.
