An early contract law principle was that a contract was only formed where the "acceptance" was exactly the same as the "offer." The term of art used was the Mirror Image Rule. So, for example, if one person offered to sell a book for $1 and the second person accepted that offer, there was a contract. READ MORE

I posed nine multiple choice questions in my September 2011 column. The following are answers and analyses. As you review the problem analyses, keep in mind that, if you gave serious thought to the questions, you have gone a long way to being right regardless of your answer. You should also know that all of these problems come from actual litigation. READ MORE

Less than 10 percent of construction lawsuits go to trial. There are reports that the number is actually less than 5 percent. Many reasons are obvious: The cost of litigation, its detrimental effect on the litigants' business, and the personal toll exacted from being in court. Add to this mix the uncertainty factor.

Once two parties have negotiated and signed a contract, that document's terms and specifications are supposed to be unalterable, except by further mutual agreement. Interpretation problems arise when one party to the contract claims there were promises made, before the contract was signed, that were inadvertently not included in the written document. READ MORE

In old England, a citizen was legally required to raise a "hue and cry" when he saw a crime committed. No such rule exists here. Similarly, you do not have a duty to throw a life preserver to a drowning person. American law has developed in a way that does not require us to help one another. READ MORE

Pillage, plunder, despoil. These words conjure up images of Conan the Barbarian robbing and destroying whole villages. "Spoliate" is a less bloody but similarly archaic word. Spoliation has a unique position in the law and, when proven, can lead to severe consequences. In its general sense, spoliation means the destruction of evidence, whether intentionally or by negligence. READ MORE

Transaction Fee and Reporting
Transaction Fee and Reporting Overview
Effective July 1, 2003, the State instituted, through Rule 60A-1 of the Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.), a Transaction Fee for procurement transactions to provide funding for an electronic procurement system, known as MyFloridaMarketPlace.
Transaction Fee Reporting
Transaction Fee Self-Reports facilitate the generation of Consolidated Billing Invoices (CBIs). All transaction fee reports not reflected on a vendor's monthly Consolidated Billing Invoice (CBI) are due on the 15th calendar day of the month following the receipt of payment for the vendor's good or services.
All Transaction Fee Reports (Form PUR3776) are completed and submitted using the MyFloridaMarketPlace online billing and collection system (BCS) available from the your MyFloridaMarketPlace VIP account at https://vendor.myfloridamarketplace.com
Consolidated Billing Invoices (CBI)
The Consolidated Billing Invoice (CBI) detail provides your vendor invoice number, the State of Florida's order number, the total amount of the payment, the date the payment was issued, and the total amount due for each payment issued.
- CBIs are available in vendor's MyFloridaMarketPlace VIP account by the third of each month.
- Vendors can choose to receive an email notification alerting them their CBI is available for review
- CBIs are distributed electronically and are not mailed.
Transaction Fee Payments
Transaction Fee payments should include the company's tax identification number and CBI number. Including this information will ensure the payment is credited appropriately.
Send payments to:
PO Box 5497
Tallahassee, FL 32314-5497
We accept payments by check, money order, cashier's check or Debit Automated Clearing House (ACH). Debit ACH, also known as bank-to-bank EFT (Electronic Funds Transfer). This is a form of electronic payment in which you electronically transfer funds from your bank account to the MyFloridaMarketPlace account.
To set up ACH please complete the form located on our Vendor Forms page.
Transaction Fee Exemptions
The Transaction Fee applies to all transactions that are not specifically exempted in Rule 60A-1.032, F.A.C.
Transaction Fee Dispute Process
If a vendor believes the Transaction Fees were assessed in error, there is a dispute process to follow. You must complete a dispute form ( ) (PUR 4357).
- Identify the CBI number(s), DO number(s), total payments and the amount of the Transaction Fee you dispute and the Rule exemption the transaction falls under
- Upon completion of the document, email the dispute form to: firstname.lastname@example.com;
- The MFMP Customer Service Desk (CSD) verifies the information is complete and emails the form to the applicable Agency's Purchasing Director / Dispute Liaison for a decision
- The agency either approves / disapproves;
- The agency notifies the CSD at of the decision
- The CSD notifies the vendor of agency decision.
Please contact the Fee Processing, 8:00 am - 6:00 pm ET, Monday through Friday, at email@example.com or 1-866-352-3776, if you have questions or need assistance.

suppose a struct defined like this:

then what will be the output of printf("%d", sizeof(S)) ? On My compiler of Vc++ 2008 expression, the output is 9. And I got confused... I suppose the result be 12, but it is not. Shouldn't the compiler align the structure to 4 or 8 ?

Mario Bava Retrospective: Pioneer of Italian Horror
Thanks to the cult success of such films as Deep Red and Suspiria, director Dario Argento is often credited as the supreme stylist of Italian horror. Genre aficionados, however, will recognize that even Argento's twisted visions remain deeply indebted to the enormously influential work of Mario Bava. Though Bava made his official debut with the atmospherically stunning Black Sunday (1960), he had already worked for years as an uncredited director behind troubled productions, salvaging films when the original directors dropped out. Such experience, combined with nearly two decades as a cinematographer, resulted in Bava's signature talent for crafting lushly orchestrated nightmares. A four-film series at Trylon Microcinema, Mario Bava: Pioneer of Italian Horror, puts the director's frightful artistry back on the screen, beginning with the spellbinding gothic classic Black Sunday, the supernatural masterwork that immortalized the witchy allure of Barbara Steele. Other features in the month-long retrospective include the unadulterated Italian cut of Lisa and the Devil (1973), an inescapable fever dream of cabalistic paranoia (featuring a menacing Telly Savalas); Black Sabbath (1963), an anthology of thoroughly unsettling tales; and Baron Blood (1972), in which a particularly vile sadist is resurrected to seek his ghastly revenge. Whether shot in shadowy black-and-white or sinisterly saturated colors, each film in this series offers enough fears to keep audiences up late into the night. (Pictured: Black Sunday)

Five "ghostly" bedtime stories comprise this video, whose hosts (Dallas and Vince Vouyer) are also ghosts. Cute premise, with some decent, but not great sex. Highlights here are: Michael J. Cox and Sofia Ferrari's gymnastic tango; and Stacey Nichols' rocking horse fuck with Michael. Otherwise, it's cute, but lack of live sound and annoying music brings down the rating. For best results place with either Stacey Nichols' or Fallon's titles.

Watch out for thorns
Ugh. It looks like the bizarre concept of World Naked Bike Day has spread (thanks, or not, to Seattle's "Body Freedom Collective"). September 10 is, apparently, World Naked Gardening Day.
People around the world are encouraged to tend their portion of the world's garden clothed as nature intended on Saturday, September 10, 2005. World Naked Gardening Day is a nonthreatening way to nudge people into experiencing firsthand the innocent pleasure of being naked in nature.
Gardeningunderstood in the broadest senseis something that just about everyone likes to do from time to time, and just about everyone daydreams about doing so nude. World Naked Gardening Day will help people become more comfortable with their bodies while it reminds them of their relation to the earth. And it'll be fun!
I can't even garden sans gloves, let alone pants.

Just Because You Are 16 Doesn't Mean You Can Shoplift
We know this will come as news to many of you.
Three 16-year-old girls had a rude awakening in downtown Brooklyn yesterday when they were busted by an employee at Target as they attempted to make off with merchandise from the discount chain. Once nabbed, store workers found clothing, shoes, gum, makeup, and stationery in their handbags. The girls were shocked to learn that, despite their young age, they could still be charged with shoplifting by police. We were shocked to learn that 16-year-olds still know what stationery is.

The Continental Bank of Canada was a chartered bank formed in Canada when IAC, a financing company, decided to expand the scope of operations in the 1980s.[1][2] The Continental Bank of Canada had head offices in Toronto. The bank was acquired by Lloyds Bank Plc of the United Kingdom and became "Lloyds Bank Canada" in 1986. Lloyds Bank sold its Canadian operations to HongKong Bank of Canada in 1990, forming HSBC Bank Canada.
In 2013 a new bank named "Continental Bank of Canada" was chartered.[3]

Incredibly thirsty after eating sugar or grains?
This is a weird phenomena that I've noticed ever since I started going low-carb. Any time I break diet and eat higher carb (basically, anything outside fruit and vegetables), I get incredibly thirsty. Like insanely drink half-a-gallon-of-fluids-and-feel-full-but-am-still-thirsty thirsty. When I go back to low-carb, this goes away, but it's bizarre while it's happening. Has anyone else experienced this phenomena? Is it related to the insulin spike?
(I have been tested for diabetes in the past and do not have it)
From what I've experience if you have a lot of adrenal stress (can be from life, staying up late, lifting really heavy a lot, etc.) your mineralocorticoids probably get thrown out of whack b/c high production stress for adrenaline and glucocorticoids like cortisol take priority. Thus, decreased output of hormones like aldosterone (mineralocorticoids) which regulate K/Na and water reabsorption.
This leads to frequent urination and "unquenchable" thrist.
The other guess I would probably say is something along the lines of hypothalmic or anterior pituitary dysfunction along the same lines. Antidiuretic hormone would probably be the other.... but that would more involve LOTS of urination (aka diabetes insipidus..).
Hypothalamus regulates thirst so if anything in the HPA axis (hypothalamus, pituitary, adrenal) gets jacked up then there's gonna be problems
It could be adrenal-related as Steven mentions, or it could just be a massive need for water for all the glycogen you're taking in on the rare occasion (is it three molecules of H20 for every glycogen, if I remember correctly?).
Likely a combo of both.
Or it could be as simple as the body requires 4g of water for every gram of carbs.
A lot less medicalspeak in one line. :D
I'm going with muscle glycogen replenshishment into muscles and taking more water from the body in the process...hence it makes you thristy to replenish......this is why BB getting ready for a show don't drink a ton of water during a "carb load" day because they want the water under the skin to be drawn into the muscle for a more "ripped" look.
You won't be as thristy after a day or two of high carbs....as the muscles will be stocked.
That's a good question that comes up...how long are you thirsty after going high-carb? The whole time, or does it only last for a short period?
It's only a short period--during, and maybe twenty-four hours after, so it sounds like it's just water being replaced in muscles.
This is a fairly recent phenomena (maybe past six months). I've been lifting consistently for almost a year now--maybe I've just reached the point where I've build enough muscle mass that I notice the glycogen-replenishment effect.
The upper limit for glycogen storage in a well conditioned athlete is ~15g/kg BW so assuming you weigh ~60kg your poor starving muscles might be trying to pack in up to 900g of glycogen (most likely it'll be ~600g) along with 3g of water per gram of glycogen. This means you might need to drink up to 2.7L of water in addition to your normal fluid requirements plus a little extra if your high carb foods contain a lot of salt eg. bread. Then if you take into account the fact that glycogen resynthesis is pretty slow at ~5-7%/hour meaning it might take 20+ hours before your glycogen stores are topped up to capacity it's easy to see why you might feel thirsty for 24 hours or so after your high carb meal.
Of course you could avoid all this and improve your performance by eating more carbs more often.

I've encountered exactly the same error trying to build fresh trunk checkout today. The quick solution that worked is increasing Java's heap memory (default 64mb for Maven). You can do this by setting environment variable MAVEN_OPTS to '-Xmx=256m' for e.g. Anyway, it would be good if someone with necessary skills could investigate further and find out why compiling serializers block demands so much memory. > Moreover, what does this command mvn -Pallblocks mean ?

Escrow fee and title insurance will vary by title company, but $950 for the escrow fee is a safe estimate. Also about $2100 for the title insurance policy.
The lender's policy is generally paid for by the buyer in Santa Clara County.
County Transfer fee: $770.00
Escrow fee: approximately $950.00
Homeowner's Title Insurance basic rate: approximately $1,930.00
Lender's Title Insurance (ALTA) on an 80% loan: approximately $692.00
Title and escrow fees vary slightly from one company to another.
An escrow officer at any title company here locally will put together a "net sheet" free of charge with line items that also typically include document transfer fees; recording fees; notary fees; and the environmental report required in the state of California for home sales. I like Dayna Santos at Chicago Title and Renee Lo at North American Title, both in Campbell.
Good luck!

What is the term for people who, when they read symptoms of some psychological disorder, start feeling that they have it?

I can think of hypochondriasis, although the term is not limited to reading about a disease nor is limited to psychological disorders (but any general illness). The word for a person who suffers from hypochondriasis is hypochondriac.
Somatization may also apply in certain cases.
Wikipedia defines Medical student's disease as a specific form of hypochondriasis triggered by studying different diseases.
They are experiencing a "phantom illness."

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Jun 01st, 2006
Running Time: 129
Company: CandidCam Video
Cast: Kitty (I), Victoria Givens, Rose (I), Eva (I), Angelica Wild, Angel (I), Maria (I), Patty (I), Monica (I), Others
Critical Rating: AA 1/2
Genre: Pro-Am
This disc boasts orgasmic Las Vegas muff action, but it comes off as a stale sequence of hotel room hosted hi-jinks – so tame that Sin City would be ashamed by association.
Cuties Angel, Kitty and Monica lounge, entangled on a sofa, fiddling with dildos. They casually cram themselves, and the tiresome threesome ends abruptly when the gals run off unexplainably. Weird.
Two uncredited actresses perform a strap-on scene with pacing akin to the scene's lame dinner-music soundtrack. Next!
It's all pretty dull, but Victoria Givens offers glimpses of greatness, with a charismatic solo performance.
Something redeeming to note is an abundance of pussy close-ups that will have your more ravenous clitoral connoisseurs chomping at their collective bits.
Retailing: Filler for your amateur section.

So I have a few questions, which does more damage, which spells are more useful, is the scaling better for one of them, which is better for pve or pvp, and should I also mix in a stat like strength or dex, which would be best for that.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (August 22, 2013)--Texas Gov. Rick Perry waded into Missouri's political battle over tax cuts Thursday, telling The Associated he believes the state's lawmakers should override Gov. Jay Nixon's veto of legislation that would have cut state income taxes.
A Texas economic development group began airing a radio ad Thursday in Missouri criticizing Nixon's veto and encouraging Missouri businesses to consider moving to Texas.
The group also is running a TV ad in Missouri touting Texas' low taxes and regulations on businesses.
Perry is scheduled to visit the state on Aug. 29 and plans to meet with business leaders, speak at a Missouri Chamber of Commerce luncheon and attend an evening event hosted by groups backing a veto override of the tax-cut bill.
Missouri lawmakers are scheduled to convene on Sept. 11 to consider veto overrides.

I have to setup
High Availability and
Load balancing for web(apache-tomcat+mod_jk) and MySQL(where all clients info is stored) server which are running on the same machine(ubuntu server). First I am trying to setup for the MySQL databases with minimal setup of servers(2 or 3).
I heard about
master-slave setup which is not suitable for HA as there is some down time while making the slave a master when master is down.
I also heard about the
master-master setup and is said to have some disadvantages like conflicting problems.
Anybody know any reliable and best setup which could be implemented for production?
I have checked setting up
master-master and
master-slave and didn't see any problem or trouble giving in syncing over LAN and I'm not sure these works flawless on production systems. I heard load balancing of mysql databases are possible and may not be possible and I'm not sure of this.
I heard about
mysql cluster 7 and seems to be powerful of all the available options but I could not find any proper documentation setup.

A simple rock band with semi-complex lyrics, an unoriginal instrumental sound, yet unique lyrical composition. Tending to repeat phrases coined by them truely, the band has been named emo, although they are nothing close to it. They have been unfortunate enough as to have been considered an 'emo-clone', coined 'emo' by some lame know-it-all somewhere who hadn't heard the term since the late 80's or early 90's, and thought they'd have a good time making up an incredibly irrevelant definition to an uncommon word. That being said, Taking Back Sunday is simply a rock band, and nothing more. Not emo, punk-rock, or pop-rock. Just rock at its simplest. Mainstream all the same, soon to be another MTV band since they signed with a major record label, after a successful run on Victory Records and the Vans Warped Tour. There's no denying, the band has talent, and deserve the success coming to them in the near future.
Taking Back Sunday is a rock band from Long Island, New York.

"It's the best feed there is if you're set up to feed it, and as you look here we've got a bulk line feeder set up and what we do is we'll take and we've got a hot wire trap set up and we'll let the cows, different sets of them, come here and eat."
Larry Herd is a rancher, cattle buyer, and has a PhD in animal nutrition. He says whole cotton seed is between twenty and twenty two per cent protein.
"It's got a lot of fiber to it, to where you don't have to worry about acidosis, if they ate too much. It provides some fill. You know if you feed a cow just straight corn it doesn't fill her belly near as much as the same amount in weight as the whole cotton seed."
Cotton seed also has fat in it.
"And so that fat is more highly, more highly concentrated energy source. And if you want some cows to milk, feed them whole cotton seed, because they will get more out of that…"
Herd says it works best when it's fed along with hay or some other by-product feed. The cotton seed is purchased directly from a cotton gin, and its availability depends on how good the cotton crop is.
"This year it was a little harder to get because your feed costs for grains are going up. The drought has also caused the cotton crops to be smaller, so you're in more competition with the oil mills for the whole cotton seed."
Cotton seed, a remarkable by-product of our fiber industry. Another look at Brazos Valley agriculture, From the Ground Up.

"High Culture & Modernity" Top 5 Page for this destination Japan by SLLiew
Japan Travel Guide: 21,927 reviews and 63,476 photos
Japan is a delightful country to vist. You can witness a country with traditional cultures and modern technologies blended into a unique way of life. From the slow sipping tea ceremony to non-stop fast bullet Shinakansen train.
Where you can be served breakfast in your room with hot bath prepared at a typical Japanese hotel ryokans. Where you can buy your "manga" comic magazines or umbrellas from street-side 24 hours vending machines.
Where the "samurai"and "other working classes" are now international corporate executives called "sarariman". Where most Japanese women of the older generations stay at home and await their husbands coming home late from work .
Tokyo is a fabulous city to roam around - Shinjuku, Akihabara, Shibuya, Ginza.... It is a favorite gateway to all Japan besides Osaka and Fukuoka.
Where language and high cost of travelling is a challenge, Japan is defintely a must-visit country with value for every yen.
For easy direction, practise saying in Japanese
"Sumimasen, (Shinjuku, Tokyo Tower, Disneylando) e ikitai no desuga" and follow the hand directions even if you have no clue of the Japanese that follows.
To say in English "Excuse me..." will quickly drive the locals away like plague.
JR rail pass is convenient, fast and economic way to go up and down the country. I went from Nikko to Nagasaki. Had to see all the top 5 famous castles, temples (otera), gardens, mountains, lakes and islands during my first Japan trip and was more selective in subsequents visits.
Obento (take-away meal boxes) can be bought easily at train stations. Saves time and money. Eat while you travel on the train or bus. Ramen are delicious and cheap too.
1) Taking a Japanese hot bath in a Japanese home, public bath or onsen. Soaking in hot water is excellent relaxation after a hectic travelling day.
2) Taking the train in Tokyo in the morning rush hour.
3) Playing pachinko (gambling ball machines) - second best after Las Vegas.
4) Eating sushi (raw fish) every day and raw eggs over steaming rice for breakfast.
5) Sleep on the tatami floor
6) Tokyo Tower or any tall building for bird eye's view of the metropolis..
7) Visit a typical Japanese garden for your spirit and soul.
8) Drink sake or ochya (tea)

great local custom tips about a country that give a lot of importance to local customs and manners.
An excellent page on Japan. It would have been quite an experience to stay with a Japanese family, I think that is a good way to find out about the culture!
I have never been to Japan but its on top of my wish list. Great work
Thank you so much for visiting my Cairo pages. I do absolutely love that City. Now Japan - there's a place I want to visit!!!!
Excellent page on Japan and your lovely photos! Bring back fond memories of our trip to that country many years ago! ~ho & pang
Mt Fujisan and kyoto- I want to see them someday...nice tips and thanks for sharing! Greetings from your friend in AZ, Norman :)
Unique culture and food. Would like to stay in a Ryokan some day but too much yen for me. My brother lived there for about a year and a half!
What a comprehensive page about Japan. Found your customs information very interesting such as double parking, buying wishes, tea ceremony, difference between shine and temple. Lots of gardens & mountains. Well done!
Japan is one of my favourite country!
Excellent page! I liked the Japanese Onzen very much!

Chapter 6: Birth of a Rivalry
For Navratilova, Wimbledon had always been a touchstone, the terminus of her dreams when she was a child in Revnice, hitting ball after ball back to her father. Before she ever imagined herself going to the United States or overtaking King or Evert, Navratilova dreamed of winning Wimbledon. She saw herself hoisting the trophy over her head like Czech star Jarolsav Drobny did in 1954 or her own mixed doubles partner, Jan Kodes, did in 1973 after his three-set singles win over Soviet star Alex Metreveli. On that day, a thrilled Navratilova, then just sixteen, had waited excitedly for Kodes to come off Centre Court and jumped up to give him a peck on the cheek.
At Wimbledon in 1978, Navratilova and Evert rumbled into the championship match to no one's surprise. In the days leading up to the final, Navratilova resented the repeated questions about the presumed fears uttering around in her head. She insisted, "I'm not the same person I was a year ago. I don't think it will come down to nerves."
Hearing that, Australian star John Newcombe, who was working as a TV commentator for the match, laughed and said he hadn't thought he was going to be nervous for his first Wimbledon final, either, "until the umpire said, 'Play.' When I looked down, my racket was shaking in my hand."
Navratilova was indeed tight. She betrayed it when she broke into a nervous laugh after she and Evert made their entrance onto Centre Court and she self-consciously dipped into her curtsy to the Royal Box a half beat too soon. After that, Navratilova kept looking at Evert for cues for when to resume their walk to their courtside chairs and where to pose for the traditional pre-match photo at the net. She let out deep gusts of breath as she awaited the start of the match, as if trying to calm herself. Once it started, Evert, playing in her fourth Wimbledon final, seemed nervous as well, even though she stormed to a 6-2 first-set win.

Navratilova made too many unforced errors to have a chance in the opening set, but a telling pattern had been established. She was charging the net at literally every opportunity and exerting the sort of relentless psychological pressure that Evert was noted for albeit in a dramatically different way. Instead of allowing Evert to turn the match into a ground stroke war, Navratilova kept attacking and crowding the net. She changed the rhythm of the match from the tick-tock of long rallies to something closer to a frenzied Rachmaninoff symphony. Flurries of points were over in seconds. Whole games ew by. Navratilova kept probing each point for a ball to chip back and come charging in behind, and she kept driving her volleys deep to either corner. She didn't care if she was serving or Evert was. Her tactics didn't change.
Navratilova kept up a running dialogue with herself throughout the first and second sets too. "Oh no not him again!" she blurted, eyes wide, after the same baseline linesman made a second straight close call against her. But whatever Navratilova was feeling didn't destroy her. This was Wimbledon. For a change, the anguish seemed to spur her along instead. She started to convert more of Evert's defensive lobs into overhead smashes. She was clawing back into the match, letting Evert know she was in a dogfight.
The day before the match both Navratilova and Evert had been questioned at length about how such good friends could handle being rivals. Evert explained she always tried to put a blank face on whoever her opponent across the net was something Haynie had been counseling Navratilova to do for months. But Evert and Navratilova were only eighteen months removed from being teenage doubles partners who used to sit on their chairs during changeovers, cracking up as Evert read from a joke book that she liked to sneak on court in her racket bag. Wimbledon final or not, some of that camaraderie was still there.
With the winds gusting in the second game of their second set, Navratilova completely whiffed on an overhead smash, leaving Evert standing stock-still in the frontcourt and just staring at Navratilova. She tried to stifle a laugh as an embarrassed Navratilova slapped a palm to her forehead.
Four games later, Navratilova guessed that Evert was about to hit a crosscourt forehand and took off on a left-to-right sprint along the net only to have Evert inadvertently smash a shot off her left temple. As a horrified Evert ran in toward her, Navratilova staggered two steps along the net, clutching her head, and theatrically fell to one knee. And the crowd laughed. "I'm all right," Navratilova assured Evert with a smile when she stood back up. When a relieved Evert playfully cuffed Navratilova on the head a few times before walking back to resume play, the crowd laughed again.
"I think when she hit me that woke me up," Navratilova said.
Navratilova fought off three break points to hold serve in that game. Her power advantage was slowly beginning to reveal itself. Evert was playing the second set for the title, but Navratilova was playing to stay alive. The urgency on both sides was evident. But Navratilova's poise was even more striking. Serving at 5-4 to extend the match, Navratilova closed out the second set at 40-30 by outlasting Evert in a tense rally.
Navratilova had refused to blink.
The crowd bellowed its approval.
They had now played an hour and a half, and there still was no hint of who was going to win.
In coming years, Navratilova would look back and call this match against Evert the most important of their eighty-match rivalry. Resolute as Navratilova had just been in the second set, the smart money remained on Evert as the match rolled into the decisive third set. "She's the hatchet woman with the cold, cold heart she says so herself," Bud Collins said on TV.

I am trying to get ShrewSoft VPN to work with a Cisco VPN connection that requires a next token code.
With Cisco VPN or NPC Secure Client these are the steps I would take:
- List item
- Import .pcf file
- Connect and enter username/password
- Token code is emailed to me
- Enter token code into client
- Connected
With ShrewSoft I cannot figure out what option will have it prompt me for the next token code. It does get emailed to me but I never have the chance to enter it. Is this a supported feature of ShrewSoft?
The reason why I'm trying to use ShrewSoft? - Cisco VPN does not run on my Samsung ATIV Smart PC (runs full Windows 8 not RT) - NPC Secure Client runs great but costs $144, steep for just occasional use tablet.

Conference Paper: Brain natriuretic peptide but not CRP predispose to development of atrial fibrillation after coronary bypass surgery
Article: Prospective native coronary artery stenosis treated with sirolimus-eluting stent (ONASSIS) registry - Acute results and mid-term outcomes: A single-center experience[Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: Encouraging results with the use of the sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) have been recently presented in several multi-center trials. In the present study, the short- and mid-term clinical outcomes of the SES in everyday clinical practice of interventional cardiology were compared with a strategy using conventional bare metal stents. In a total of 530 consecutive patients (males 86%, mean age 61 +/- 10 years) who had been treated with a SES were compared with a control group of 398 patients (males 87%, mean age 59 +/- 11 years) treated with a bare metal stent before the use of SES. In-hospital results and clinical outcomes during follow-up (11.22 +/- 3.4 versus 11.41 +/- 3.1 months) were obtained. Patients treated with SES had more risk factors for coronary artery disease or multivessel disease compared to those with treated bare metal stent. The clinical success rate was 99.6% in the SES group and 98.5% in the bare metal stent group (p = ns), and non-Q-wave myocardial infarction (MI) occurred in 5.7% and 4.0% of patients, respectively. The incidence of death or MI during follow-up was not different (1.1% versus 1.3% and 0.8% versus 1.8%; p = ns). Percutaneous or surgical revascularization for target lesion restenosis was required in 2.1% of patients treated with SES and in 10.1% of those with bare metal stents (p < 0.001), and the event-free survival from death, cerebrovascular accident, MI or any percutaneous or surgical revascularization was 93.13% and 83.63%, respectively (p < 0.01). The implantation of the SES is associated with excellent in-hospital and mid-term results, mainly because of dramatic reductions in the need for repeat revascularization, despite a higher risk factor profile and more complex lesion characteristics.
- [Show abstract] [Hide abstract] ABSTRACT: In this study, we examined the hypothesis that dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) shares genetic risk factors with other diseases of presumed autoimmune etiology, and, therefore, the same multiple genes in combination with environmental factors lead to numerous different autoimmune diseases. In accordance with this hypothesis, we showed an increased prevalence of autoimmune diseases in first-degree relatives of patients with DCM. Also, T-cell activation, as reflected in high levels of the soluble interleukin-2 receptor, appears to identify patients with DCM with a clustering of autoimmune diseases.

I bought a 6'x9' version of this rug and have it in my living room. It looks just like the photo. Since the tuffs of wool are round, there are a few areas where there is no rug, but it's a beautiful rug just the same. It would go in any decor. Happy with my purchase and I would buy it again.
This is a beautiful rug if it did not have as many gaps I would be in love with it. It is exactly the colors I wanted but the gaps in the rug between the circles are very visible and much worse in person. if it were not such a hassle to return and if the colors were not exactly what I was looking for I would have returned. But I do love the pattern just not the best work. But it was shipped and received very fast at my door 2 business days later.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? true to picture
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. good/ fair lots of gaps one part had none and the rest had a bunch of gaps
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? ok
As with previous reviewers, I would have preferred if there were no visible 'gaps' between some of the balls that make up the rug, but I was aware that they would be present thanks to earlier reviews, and don't find them terribly bothersome. The pattern is very striking and modern while still looking somewhat natural and organic, a hard combo to find. Also I love the color scheme running from blacks and greys to creams and tans-- a hard color palette to find together. I use this in a bathroom and it performs well with the water (wool is on sheep in the rain, after all!) and the balls feel great on bare feet. As with all wool rugs, it sheds at the beginning, but this diminishes with time. I find it to be a very beautiful and versatile rug and I am pleased with it, especially for the price.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? good match
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. good
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? good
The pattern in the rug is not as eye-exam-worthy as the photo in the description and the colors are subtle, earthy tones: off-white, beige, light grey, dark grey and black. Each circle is about the size of a silver dollar that's an individual piece of wool. That is, the rug is not one big piece of wool but rather hundreds of little pieces that are attached to the carpet backing. It was a surprise to see such an Interesting design when we unpacked it. So far, it's been easy to clean (a glass of red wine didn't phase it) and it's holding up well under 4 adult feet and 8 paws. Oh yeah, almost forgot the best part....THIS RUG FEELS AMAZINGLY SOFT/PLUSH/LUXURIOUS UNDER BARE FEET!!!!!!! We've spent tons more on area rugs and they haven't felt this good. Seriously.

I had a general question about how other's view specific verbage signage. Do you give the same respect to the, say, handwritten signs vs. the code specific signs? I have read plenty about Texas' 30.06 sign and alot of people seem to think that if it doesn't say SPECIFICALLY what the code says including font size and verbage, they disreguard the sign alltogether. I understand the rights/ wishes of the property owner, but if one was to walk past a "no guns" sign, would that be unlawful and grounds for arrest? How do you view the verbage in specifics?
Arkansas code says:
5-73-306. Prohibited places.
(b)(1) In addition to the places enumerated in this section, the carrying of a concealed handgun may be disallowed in any place in the discretion of the person or entity exercising control over the physical location of such place by the placing of a written notice clearly readable at a distance of not less than ten feet (10') that the "carrying of a handgun is prohibited."
So does it have to say that last 6 words exactly as you read it here?

I would advise you to contact an attorney in your state for an answer rather than go on what is on the net .. i suspect there is no caselaw at this point and its a grey area personaly .

I can't seem to find out how much weight a sign holds in Arkansas and I guess with your responce about Florida, it seems some states have thought about the issue. If i can ask, how did you find out about Florida's view? (perhaps that would point me in a direction for search)
thanks for the reply.

In CO the no gun signs hold no legal weight. I never pay attention to them if they catch me all they can do is ask me to leave. If I was to refuse to leave then I could be charged with trespassing. I would say you could also be charged with trespassing if you were caught and verbally told not come on the property again armed and you did it again.
Yes I respect all no guns signs whether or not they meet any definition set forth by law. I take my money and spend it somewhere else. I'm not giving any of my money to anti-rights businesses.
The two states I'm familiar with shake out like this on signs:
In Virginia if discovered carrying in a posted location they have to ask and allow you to leave. Should you refuse you will be charged with misdemeanor trespassing.
In Missouri it is basically the same, except that they have an escalating charge if it occurs multiple times within a certain time period. The second go around they will suspend your permit. The way the law is written you basically can't get the third offense, because you would be carrying illegally based on the suspension of your permit for your second offense.
Hey, why the name change fellas? I was curious about other states views of this as well. I just didn't want to limit the responce to people from Arkansas only.
Not a problem, just curious.

Scott covered our signs in Missouri. I will add that regardless of the legality of the signs, I will not carry in a business that has any type of sign stating my weapon is not welcome. Having been a business owner I will respect the rights of those not wanting us to carry. Whoever I will also spend my money with those that welcome us and not with those that don't.
The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.

I think you summed it up for Tx. pretty well. If it's not 30.06 it aint squat, and I ignore it. (except for 51% rule). It's not unlawful for me to do so, as the owner of the business can't make laws. They can ask me to leave if they become aware I'm carrying and I would certainly comply. But if I'm carrying correctly they should never become aware that I am.
Like many others I wouldn't patronize an establishment that didn't allow me to carry, but I think that many of the signs you see are to placate the angry liberals and not really meant to drive off legal concealed carry. At least thats my feeling here in Tx.

F.S. 790.06(12) states in part:Originally Posted by dru22That is the list of prohibited places in Florida. If it's not listed there, you can carry. You won't find a list of places that allow carry.(12) No license issued pursuant to this section shall authorize any person to carry a concealed weapon or firearm into:
-any place of nuisance as defined in s. 823.05;
-any police, sheriff, or highway patrol station;
-any detention facility, prison, or jail;
-any courthouse; any courtroom, except that nothing in this section would preclude a judge from carrying a concealed weapon or determining who will carry a concealed weapon in his or her courtroom;
-any polling place;
-any meeting of the governing body of a county, public school district, municipality, or special district;
-any meeting of the Legislature or a committee thereof; any school, college, or professional athletic event not related to firearms;
-any school administration building;
-any portion of an establishment licensed to dispense alcoholic beverages for consumption on the premises, which portion of the establishment is primarily devoted to such purpose;
-any elementary or secondary school facility;
-any career center;
-any college or university facility unless the licensee is a registered student, employee, or faculty member of such college or university and the weapon is a stun gun or nonlethal electric weapon or device designed solely for defensive purposes and the weapon does not fire a dart or projectile;
-inside the passenger terminal and sterile area of any airport, provided that no person shall be prohibited from carrying any legal firearm into the terminal, which firearm is encased for shipment for purposes of checking such firearm as baggage to be lawfully transported on any aircraft; or any place where the carrying of firearms is prohibited by federal law.
There may be case law on it, but I am not aware of any.
You have already found the Arkansas code 5-73-306 that lists prohibited places, so you're ahead of most folks. I would interpret it to mean that the sign must have the exact verbage, thus the quotes around the words.
My interpretation means nothing, however. The important folks doing the interpreting will be the District Attorney and the jury...if it ever progressed to that point.
Good luck.
Alabama law makes no mention of the right of any business or individual to restrict the carrying of a gun. That said, the rights of a private individual to control what and who comes on to his property is established many ways. So if an individual says no guns it would pull weight. If a business in Alabama put up a sign it would be a waste of ink and paper. I personally would not carry a gun into a business that posted such a sign. Neither would I carry my wallet nor myself in. I vote on that just like I do on some other issues with my wallet. My position is: No guns, No funds. At least from my bank account.
Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe. Albert Einstein
Texas laws are specific as previously mentioned. Oklahoma signs, however, have no restrictions that I am aware of, and can even be in crayon on Big Chief tablet (no inference meant, folks)

Pearl Jam's donation will go toward improving native forest conditions at Discovery Park by planting enough Pacific Northwest native conifer trees to sequester 20,000 tonnes of CO2 over 100 years.
In 2011, Stone personally purchased $8,000 worth of native plants on 4.6 acres as an additional offset as part of Washington State's Arlington Arbor Day celebration. Stone and volunteers worked to plant more than 500 native shrubs and trees in the city's new Country Charm Recreation and Conservation Area, the former Graafstra dairy farm.
* Measurement based on the following estimate: Pearl Jam is seeking to offset 20,000 tons of carbon for every 7 legs of tour, given that our carbon output per tour leg is approximately 2000 metric tons per tour.
2012 | Pearl Jam Works With UPS to Decrease Carbon Footprint
2009 - 2010 | Cascade Land Conservancy Puget Sound Planting
2007 - 2008 | Conservation International La Laguna De Cube Project
Pearl Jam donated over $78,000 from the band's 2007 and 2008 tours to Conservation International's La Laguna de Cube project in the Esmeraldas Province in Ecuador. Restoration took place in the Mache-Chindul Ecological Reserve, a 300,000-acre reserve established by Ecuador's Ministry of the Environment and contains the Laguna de Cube, which was declared a "wetland of international importance."
Conservation International's restoration efforts add another layer of protection to this critical remnant of Ecuador's coastal rainforest that is home to a number of unique plant and animal species, including the jaguar, the long wattled umbrella bird, the giant anteater and the threatened mantled Howler monkey. As this regenerated forest grows, it will absorb more than 6,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) over the next 30 years, provide habitat protection for endangered plant and animal species and direct support for local communities.

2006 | Carbon Portfolio Strategy
Donations went to: American Solar Energy Society, Bonneville Environmental Foundation, Conservation International, Green Empowerment, Honor the Earth, Cascade Land Conservancy, IslandWood, EarthCorps and the Washington Clean Energy Initiative. The band's investment to Conservation International from this effort was used to help restore degraded tropical forests in Ecuador through replanting of native species of plants and trees.
