I skied Purgatory (or Durango Mountain Resort, as it's now known) back in the late 80's, and then again in 2008. It's a big enough resort to offer a little something for everyone, although it doesn't stand out in any one area. If you are an advanced skier, head over to the backside of the mountain, where you'll escape the crowds (for the most part) and enjoy some challenging steep terrain (see pictures). You pretty much have to take the high-speed 6-pax to get started, but make the long traverse via Legends to Lift 8, or drop into Lift 5 if the mood strikes.
There are some nice tree skiing areas (Paul's Park and Poet's Glade) that are great if there is fresh powder.
If you wait until late in the day to head back to the front side, you may have to make a long flat traverse across the summit ridge. Not that bad, but if you want to avoid it, leave a little early and drop down a blue run to Lift 2 or 3. If you find yourself over on the front side with a little time to spare, make a run down Styx or Hades to finish the day.
DMR is a pretty good place to ski with a group of varying ability, because it has lots of blues and blacks serviced by the same lifts. The options for beginners on the front side are a little more limited..this would not be my choice of resort to teach youngsters to ski.
DMR is a good 25 minutes drive north of Durango. You may want to stay close to town, as Durango is a nice mountain town with a lot to offer, including some really excellent dining...my 4-star rating is based on the town, not the mountain village.

Last Modified: Saturday, July 14, 2012 at 12:34 a.m.
Same truck stolen again
A Cut Off resident said someone tried to steal his truck last week after it had already been stolen twice before, Lafourche Sheriff's Office deputies said.
The first time, the truck was returned to his home with diesel fuel missing from it, deputies said. The second time, the truck was later found on La. 1. During the third attempt, the resident caught the alleged thief on video.
A screenshot can be viewed at www.DailyComet.com or www.HoumaToday.com.
The victim reported the attempted theft about 2 a.m. July 7, deputies said.
Officials are offering a reward to help identify the man in the video if the information leads to an arrest. Deputies said they want to question him about at least one other auto theft in Cut Off.
Tipsters may be eligible for up to $1,000.
Anyone with information on this case is asked to contact Bayou Region Crime Stoppers at 1-800-743-7433 or by texting "GIVEATIP" plus your message to 274637. Information can also be submitted online at www.crimestoppersbr.org or by using the TipSubmit mobile application on iPhones or Android phones.
Can you identify this man?
Officials are offering a reward to those who can identify a man caught on tape two weeks ago who allegedly tried to break into a Cut Off home.
The video can be viewed at www.DailyComet.com or www.HoumaToday.com.
The June 29 video shows a man walking up to a back porch at an East Main Street house about 1 a.m., then trying to open the back door, deputies said Friday. He leans over the porch rail to look into the back window, then continues walking around the property.
Deputies said they want to question him about area burglaries.
Tipsters can remain anonymous and could be eligible for up to $1,000 if the information given leads to an arrest.
Anyone who can help identity the person, or with any other information on this case, can contact Bayou Region Crime Stoppers at 1-800-743-7433.
Man charged with drug possession
A Houma man is accused of having more than $400 worth of crack cocaine and marijuana on him.
Police said Jeffery Norris, 20, of Daniel Turner Trailer Court, was arrested Friday after they found him at Daniel Turner Trailer Court with 3.6 grams of crack cocaine, with a street value of more than $350, and 8.7 grams of marijuana, with a street value of more than $40.
Police said they stopped him about 2:40 a.m. after they saw a group of people standing at an intersection, pulled up to investigate, and Norris began to leave the area.
Police said they discovered Norris was wanted for driving without a license and driving on a roadway not laned for traffic,
He was charged in connection with the warrants, as well as with marijuana and crack cocaine possession. He is in the Terrebonne Parish jail in lieu of a $40,000 bond.
Man accused of having child porn
A Thibodaux man is charged with having images of child porn on his computer.
Adam Joshua Evans, 21, 1108 St. Patrick St., was arrested Thursday after a joint investigation with federal, state and city law enforcement, the state Attorney General's Office said.
The Attorney General's High Technology Crime Unit, U.S. Homeland Security Investigations and the Thibodaux Police Department participated in the investigation, officials said.
He is charged with 40 counts of possessing child pornography. He is in the Lafourche Parish jail in lieu of a $40,000 bond.

I.S. 318's Crowning Achievement
Justus Williams travels a long way to get to his middle school in a scrappy corner of Brooklyn.
From the South Bronx to Williamsburg, the 6 train to the J train, it's an hour each way.
He doesn't travel for a basketball team or a music program. No, the lure is a rather unusual one for a teenager: chess.
"I started in elementary school," says 13-year-old Justus, who is now a certified chess master.
"At the tournaments there were always a lot of good players from this school."
At Intermediate School 318, chess is king.
The school's team has been declared champions before—time and time again, in fact, for more than a decade. But last weekend in Minneapolis, 18 of its top players exceeded expectations, being crowned the winners at the United States Chess Federation's national high school championship.
It's believed to be the first time a middle school has won the high school championship (technically it tied with Hunter High School but I.S. 318 snagged the trophy because its opponents scored higher).
This from a school where nearly 70% of the students are eligible for free and reduced-cost lunch, according to assistant principal John Galvin, who coordinates the chess team.
There is a lot of bad news that comes out of the New York City public school system: bursts of violence involving students and even teachers; failing schools forced to close. So to achieve something extraordinary out of such challenging circumstances—well, this is something to revel in.
And so the win has attracted attention from near and far.
The team was mentioned on Rachel Maddow's show this week. It visited City Hall on Thursday, meeting Mayor Michael Bloomberg. And next week there is talk of a possible appearance on "The Colbert Report." All this while it prepares for the junior high championship in California next weekend.
"Many other schools might celebrate athletics," says Mr. Galvin. "In our school we really try to celebrate chess as a sport of the mind."
"The focus is if you work really hard you can be successful," he says. At anything.
I.S. 318 is a diverse school, with a majority Latino population. Some students live in nearby public housing. A few, like 13-year-old Isaac Barayev, commute from different boroughs. Isaac lives in Forest Hills; his father drives him to and from school because of the chess program.
"I was like the only person in my school who played in tournaments," says Isaac, of his elementary school.
For the past three years, he's had plenty of company. "Here it's cool," he says, smiling. "It's cool to travel a lot and win championships and come back to school with a big trophy."
At many schools, the hallways and walls may be lined with athletic trophies and plaques. From the moment you enter I.S. 318, just about every award—hundreds of them—are chess-related.
Dozens of banners line the front lobby. Trophies crowd the staircases. Blown-up newspaper and magazine articles grace hallway walls.
There is even a chess hall of fame.
The team was featured in a documentary, "Brooklyn Castle," which drew acclaim at the South by Southwest festival in Austin last month.
The chess culture so infuses the school that Elizabeth Spiegel was hired as a full-time chess teacher in 2007. Ms. Spiegel teaches nine classes and 25 periods of chess a week, in addition to overseeing a chess club of about 80 students that meets after school.
Her classroom is a mecca of the game. Oversize chess pieces are scattered about. Dramatic photos of students at tournaments line the walls, along with chess terms and tips.
"In general don't trade bishops for knights without a good reason," reads one. "Bishops are usually better!!"
"How to Castle," reads another poster.
There is no natural talent or inherent ability required for chess.
Playing the game well, Ms. Spiegel says, is a learned skill. And so the students in chess club and those who take her class have homework. Lots of it. They memorize moves and practice online and at home.
Kenneth Martin, 13 years old, started playing chess in fourth grade at Fulton Park near his house, where a bunch of older guys play regularly.
Twelve-year-old Brian Arthur's parents don't even know how to play the game. He started playing in fourth grade and, like many students, practices online. Chess helps him concentrate, he says.
And Maya and Mariah McGreen, 13-year-old twins from Bushwick, started mastering the male-dominated game at the ripe age of 4. They'll compete in the national girl's championship this weekend in Chicago.
The chess champions at I.S. 318 don't appear unusually cerebral. They may toss around chess terms that would stump a layman, but for the most part they appear to be typical teenagers: some rambunctious, some shy.
Most don't harbor dreams of being professional chess players. They realize chess is a game.
And right now, their game is on.

Re: openskycc.
com Questions for anyone that has this card.
Shawn_S wrote:
Didn't apply for this card yet but have some questions about it.
1. How long did it take to find out you were approved? Did it tell you instantly or did you have to wait?
2. Is it possible to view your balance and pay this card online? I didn't see a login/account section at www.openskycc.com anywhere.
I had the card a few years ago, when the terms were much better. There is no grace period now, so interest accrues from posting. so you would not want to let much time between charges and payment. They had an online account to pay your bill which worked fine.
I think approval is still based on identity verification. They had some email sent, phone calls protocol to go through. Should be able to get it done in a few hours during business hours.
It is an OK card to start rebuilding and you have no open accounts and you have bad credit. I'd get it if you are declined for a better secured card with bank/CU.

My mom's best friend used to make these for us all the time when I was in college. I was so happy to find this recipe here. They tasted as good as I remembered and are perfect party food. I made them a day ahead, put them in the freezer and then baked when ready to serve. So yummy. Thanks Mysterygirl :D
I made these the other day, they had always been a favorite of ours which I hadn't made it such a long time. I was browsing looking for something different to serve and came up on this recipe. Thanks for the great recipe, very good. These were enjoyed by all.
This was so easy & so good. I served these at a teen band party. I got many compliments on them. I really like that I can make these ahead of time, freeze them, and pull them out of the freezer while the oven is preheating. Thanks for posting.

Ska Against the Machine
¨Worship Jeff Spicoli, not Chris Cornell/Get a pair of Vans or God´ll send you to hell.¨ No, this isn´t an advertisement for the DVD release of Fast Times at Ridgemont High, nor is it about the Warped Tour; it´s a lyric from ¨Vans Song,¨ from the Suicide Machines´ 1996 debut, Destruction by Definition.
Something of an also-ran during the ska-punk craze of the mid-1990s, Destruction was filled with irreverent punk tunes just a tad less intense than hardcore, punctuated by horns and ska beats more Operation Ivy than Desmond Dekker. At a time when Sublime and the Mighty Mighty Bosstones were all over the radio, the Suicide Machines quietly (or very loudly, depending on your point of view) sold more than 200,000 records and seemingly as many T-shirts.
But a lot can change in a decade. You get older, your worldview widens, you might even mellow a bit. Or you might take a look at the world around you and get angry very, very angry. And angry is where the Detroit-based Suicide Machines find themselves on album number six, War Profiteering Is Killing Us All. This latest offering is a call to arms where Destruction by Definition was a call to the mall. Vocalist Jason Navarro´s lyrics are still irreverent, and the band still kicks a ska-inflected hardcore/punk groove, but now he´s focused his righteous rage on American society like a Washington bureaucrat focuses on a fictional weapon of mass destruction. You´d think someone from the Bush administration peed in his breakfast cereal (or maybe outed him as a Menudo fan to a reporter).
Politicians don´t get all Navarro and company´s venom, though the Suicide Machines save a surprising amount of invective for their own audience. Take ¨Rebellion Is On the Clearance Rack (and I Think I Like It)¨ or ¨17% 18-25,¨ which rants about low voter turnout among the Machines´ target demographic, pointing out the hypocrisy of those who loudly call out for social change but don´t do a damned thing about it. Jello Biafra would be proud.

On ¨Capsule (aka Requiem for the Stupid Human Race),¨ the Machines do a Propaghandi-style take on modern technology, with the refrain ¨We dig our graves/Now we lie in them and we roll in our own shit.¨
Perhaps the recent return to an indie label (SideOneDummy) after years of recording for the Disney-owned Hollywood Records has something to do with the Suicide Machines´ increasing disdain for corporate America. This album could´ve just as easily been called Snow White and the Seven Capitalist Pigs. But never let it be said that politicos can´t rock: The rhythm section is tight, the guitars frenetic, and Navarro pretty much screams his head off. What more could a punk want?

|Reviews for Kaleidoscope of Illusions
| edboy4926 chapter 1 . 1/14
Good intro.
| ShortySC22 chapter 2 . 9/4/2015
I liked this twist on time traveling! I loved how you wrote Han and Leia here and how Han ended up playing matchmaker for everyone.
| JiraS chapter 2 . 7/11/2014
Wow this is pretty cool. I wish someone could visit me from my future and point me in the direction of my 'soulmate'.
| Ella Stormway chapter 2 . 3/4/2014
Amazing! I really had no idea how is was going to end! It shocked me though! The ending sentence topped it off! Great Job!
| ginchy-amanda chapter 2 . 3/6/2014
Have I reviewed this? Cause, if I haven't, I am remiss. I always really liked this fic. Poor Han. He gave it his all, and it was all okay in the end. I have to add this to my favorites!
| jzhanfan chapter 2 . 9/7/2013
the EU is the illusion, your way is much better. bless you.
| jzhanfan chapter 1 . 9/7/2013
I LOVE THIS. can't stop reading. I was so glad to see you on my list of new stories, I love your writing! you get everyone's voices perfectly.
| Agent Lizzie chapter 1 . 8/12/2012
Wow! Just wow! One of my favorite fics.
| princessofthescoundrels chapter 1 . 9/3/2010
I love this! Wow, Im sad I didnt read it before, its just that your stories are just so long! The only thing really that Im upset about is Jag. Whatever though, it was at the end. I love how it was orchestrated and how well it was put together. Han/leia foreva! Blah, thanks!
| Zyra M chapter 1 . 7/11/2010
Wow, just got through this one. Sort of like a combination of Back to the Future and Quantum Leap. Except Han gets to right his own wrongs.
Very cool concept, and kind of nice for Han to get to relive 30 years of his life all over again, this time coming to a better conclusion. And getting to marry Leia sooner, Chewie getting to live, saving Alderaan... definitely removing a lot of the heartache they'd both had to suffer the "first time."
Glad that Han was able to convince everyone that he was actually not crazy and eventually they listened to him. So fun watching him and Leia fall in love again, under slightly different circumstances. And then seeing Alderaan and what she still had and fearing that by letting her keep all of that, he might lose her because he can't compete with that (of course he can!)
There is too much to go back and pull out specific lines, but really great story. Always fun to read some Han/Mara fighting. And Yoda being annoyed with Han. Great story, and so glad that they all got to enjoy a much brighter future!
| Nefelibata Lisita chapter 1 . 6/26/2010
Great story! I like the way you changed things and Han's first tries at changing what happens
| Bialaska chapter 1 . 5/4/2010
Amazing story. Perhaps it should have been spread out over more chapters, since that makes it easier to handle. For instance I had to read it over several parts and it wasn't easy finding the spot I had reached last. Knowing I had reached chapter 7 for instance would easen things up a bit.
Other than that, this was definitely a very pleasant surprise. Usually Leai/Han aren't my favourites to read about (though the pair fits together naturally), but this Han was awesome. :) And in this story it looks like the Force wanted to set things right, even if it chose someone with little connection to the Force. Loved the ending, even if it did perhaps seem slightly rushed, skipping from the death of Palpatine and directly into the more distant future.
| Myrrn chapter 1 . 7/25/2009
Surprisingly good, can't believe this only has 5 reviews. Unique plot and believable characterization, though the ending was a bit abrupt. Good work!
| Ginaaaa chapter 1 . 7/7/2009
I'm happy Chewie stayed alive in your version, I love him. I wonder who made Han go back in time though. Great job!
| JadeAlmasy chapter 1 . 6/19/2009
Wow Great job on this one! I do hope that Jaina and Jag get married in the books, i think that they were ment for each other.

The second option I would recommend for a person with very little grappling experience in a self-defense situation is to attack the American Lock. The reason is that it allows you to stay heavy on top without having switch into a different position, all the while still being able to attack the person from a safe position (assuming that you have already taken the attacker to the ground and landed in the side control position). If you do not feel comfortable in creating scramble or losing your position on top then attacking the American Lock is a very safe option.
Nam Phan will defending his World King of Pancrase title against former TUF12 alumi Andy Main on Oct 4th 2015 in Differ Ariake Japan. Lets wish him luck everyone. Go Team Nam Phan .

THE Virginia Chili Man: Kaine is a good choice. In fact, he'd make an infinitely better POTUS than would Hillary. And if progressives cannot get over the fact that he's a white man, that tells you a lot about just how superficial and knot-headed they are. They can keep their vicious "attack dog" where her bite does no real harm to the country. Nobody is saying it, but Kaine understands business, and gives some assurance that a Clinton Administration, unlike the Berninator, won't send our economy lurching off the rails with unrealistic, and fiscally irresponsible, ideals, that quite frankly, are not fair to the working class. Fact is, progressives aren't going anywhere -- they will vote for Hillary no matter what she has done or will do -- they are the ultimate, almost robotic, adherents to supporting "the party". Clinton is protecting her more vulnerable flank -- moderates with brains.

F1 circuits history part 13: 1995-8

The after-effects of the traumatic 1994 season were felt throughout the Formula 1 calendar. Circuits that had made temporary changes to slow down high speed sections now had to find ways of making those alterations permanent. And new courses would have to either be much slower or built with even larger run-off spaces. The man … Continue reading F1 circuits history part 13: 1995-8

In a post-industrial culture of digital manipulation, reality often becomes an illusion. So much of our waking lives are spent craning towards LCD screens or staring down into the crackling wasteland of an iPhone — little time is left for "real" time.
Eugene painter and mixed media artist Adam Lesh explores this concept and more in his current exhibit "Screened In" downtown at The Woodpecker's Muse art gallery.
"On some level, my paintings are about futility," said Lesh. "About the impossibility of genuine free will or unencumbered thought or even real originality within the staggering confines of culture and the limits of human cognition."
And how could anyone think otherwise in an Internet environment where our brains are constantly bombarded by pop-ups, preliminary YouTube ads and other flicks of cultural sabotage. In his own words, Lesh wants to "tease apart possible meanings" and "reorient these dizzying phenomena from the quick time of bits, to the slow time of paint."
Visually, "Screened In" is stunning. Each work incorporates mesh screens and the paintings are abstract, some displaying complex patterns; one particularly entrancing painting entitled "Buckminster Babylon" features lime-green, tile-like segments that appear to sputter and fade out over a blue canvas. Another, "Ativan Civic Trench Run", is an acrylic-over-fiberglass mesh that seems to replicate the pixilation of a 1980s analog camera.
"Screens are a metaphor, a tool, and a source," said Lesh. "They serve as both cover for hiding and as a crystal ball for viewing the world remotely."
Lesh's work is both representational and documentary in nature, yet still art. He draws a fine line between social critique (he's not into that) and documentation. For him, like most of us, screens are a poignant and perhaps all too dominating reality.
"Screens are both windows and barricades," said Lesh, "providing access but also significantly constricting my point of view."
The second opening of "Screened In" begins at 5:30pm Friday, March 2, at The Woodpecker's Muse, 372 W. Broadway, and continues through April 5. — Andrew Hitz

EWEB Commissioner Rich Cunningham has decided to not resign early from the board and says he will stay through the end of 2012, when his four-year term ends, according to EWEB spokesman Lance Robertson today (Feb. 28). Cunningham had earlier announced that he was resigning in early March because he was moving to a home outside of Ward 6, one of the two city wards that he represents. He says he will not be moving out of Ward 6, which he was elected to in 2008.
Cunningham has indicated that he would not run for re-election this year to serve another four-year term. He was elected in May 2011 to the Bethel School Board, and has been serving on both elected boards for the past eight months.
From Lane County today, the county has the decision to allow mining at Parvin Butte without a site review to be reconsidered.
Lane County has filed a motion to the Lane County Hearings Official requesting reconsideration of a recent ruling and motion for dismissal regarding a site review process for quarry mining of Parvin Butte.
Lane County maintains that a site review for mining operations at Parvin Butte is necessary given the impact to neighboring residents including increased traffic, noise, and proximity to area homes. The County is also seeking to uphold the nearly $8,000 in fines the County levied to Lost Creek Rock Products for continuing operations without a site review.
"While the area is zoned for mineral extraction, we believe a site review is necessary to ensure that concerns are considered," said Marc Kardell, assistant County Counsel. "Neighboring residents have stressed concern for increased traffic, noise, hours of operation, and overall impact on their quality of life. The code provisions point to mitigating those impacts through a site review process."
On February 14, Lane County Hearings Official Gary Darnielle ruled that a site review was not applicable for uses "accessory to mineral extraction" such as roads that lie in the set back area, noise, or other impacts. Darnielle is a Lane Counsel of Governments employee, providing a neutral party to oversee the hearings.
The County is asking for a reconsideration of the ruling because the Lane Code outlines provisions to be followed for quarry operations, including site review requirements for necessary or accessory uses.
"We're interested in applying the code fairly, and this means balancing zoned uses and their impacts on neighboring areas," said Matt Laird, Land Management Division manager. "It's challenging, but the code and its provisions are in place to protect land use, while providing residents with a process to address impacts."
Some days you need bad puns and small furry animals. "Marmoset there'd be days like this."
Tuesday Feb. 21's City Council meeting has a series of public hearings on the agenda.
The topics include:
The extension of the DPSZ — or the exclusion zone, as it's often called — to be decided at the Feb. 27 meeting, an ordinance allowing camping in tents where camping in vehicles is allowed, the Amazon Meadows Metro Plan Amend. & Zone Change, and an ordinance adopting hazardous substance user fees.
To comment, arrive early for the 7:30 pm meeting, fill out a "Request to Speak" form at the back table and turn in your form before the meeting starts — otherwise you won't be allowed one of the three-minute time slots.

EWEB Commissioner Rich Cunningham plans to resign from the position he has held for the past three years, effective March 9, according to EWEB today (Feb. 9). He was not intending to run for re-election in the May primary.
Cunningham, who represents Wards 6 and 7, says he and his family are moving to a home in Ward 8, which is currently represented by Commissioner Joann Ernst.
The remaining four commissioners are expected to appoint a replacement to serve out the remaining months of Cunningham's term, which ends Dec. 31.

Given the strong support for and interest in the TCP, CFCC will continue to seek funding to operate the TCP in more schools in Baltimore. CFCC will announce the 2013-2014 TCP schools shortly.
July 2013 - CFCC received $68,265 from the Montgomery County State's Attorney's Office to operate our Truancy Court Program in Montgomery County
CFCC received $68,265 from the Montgomery County State's Attorney's Office to operate our Truancy Court Program in three Montgomery County public schools and to provide technical assistance to one school for the 2013-2014 academic year.
We at CFCC are particularly pleased with this funding, which is an outgrowth of the federal earmark grant CFCC received a few years ago and with which we launched the TCP in Montgomery County. Montgomery County State's Attorney John McCarthy and several of his Assistant State's Attorneys have been instrumental in assisting with the operation of the TCP and obtaining continued funding after the expiration of the earmark.
All of us at CFCC are grateful for this wonderful collaboration, which permits some of our CFCC Student Fellows to work closely with Mr. McCarthy's office.
June 24, 2013 - Truancy Court Program Principal's WorkshopCFCC held a principals' workshop for school administrators interested to apply for its Truancy Court Program for the 2013-2014 school year. More than 40 participants from over 22 Baltimore City public schools attended the workshop. Dr. Beshon Trusty-Smith, the Manager of Baltimore City's Office of Attendance and Truancy, made opening remarks. To learn more about the TCP and the application for the 2013-2014 school year, please visit the Truancy Court Program webpage.
June 2013 - CFCC received $83,751 from the Maryland Judiciary's Department of Family Administration Special Projects Grant Program.
The grant supports the operation of the TCP in five Baltimore City public schools for the 2013-2014 school year.
June 2013 - CFCC received a $15,000 grant from the Zanvyl and Isabelle Krieger Fund to to continue operating the Truancy Court Program (TCP) in Baltimore City for the 2013-2014 school year.The Krieger Fund gift helped operate the Samuel C. Taylor Elementary School TCP for the 2012-2013 school year. 22 of the 27 participants (81 percent) there graduated from the TCP, and they averaged a 41 percent reduction overall in unexcused absences during the TCP.
May 2013 – CFCC has a new name: Sayra and Neil Meyerhoff Center for Families, Children and the CourtsIn honor of a gift of $1 million to the University of Baltimore John and Frances Angelos Law Center by Sayra Meyerhoff, J.D.

Let me explain what I'm trying to do, we have one 10Mbps line coming in, we want to divide that up into 3 3Mbps sections, which are defined by each subnet, then in one of these subnets we have tennents that which we want to then allocate specific amounts per tennent. (So the 3Mbps for them, might have 5x256kbps 3x1.5Mbps, etc in it)
So in my test environment, I'm just trying to get it to have the inherited classes rates and everything correctly, I've been trying with tc and with tcng, here is an example tcng which should limit 192.168.30.132 to 256kbps, however this is not the case, instead it gets the full connection speed of the link, not even the 10Mbps class inside htb.
Yet if I remove the $tennents1 from this example it provides the subnet the correct 512kbps, rather then a full link.
dev eth1 {
egress {
class ( <$tennents> ) if ip_src/24 == 192.168.30.0 ;
class ( <$tennent1> ) if ip_src/32 == 192.168.30.132 ;
htb ( ) {
class ( rate 10Mbps, ceil 10Mbps ) {
$tennents = class ( rate 512kbps, ceil 512kbps ) {
$tennent1 = class ( rate 256kbps, ceil 256kbps ) { sfq; } ;
} ;
Even a working example with tc commands would be great, which is the default way I started doing this however ran into same sorta issues, figured I was doing something wrong, went for the tcng method of generating the tc script, but still same issues.

Cool to see the Robert Crumb show on the road. As juvenile as his illustration seem to a lot of people, I think he's really misunderstood as an artist.
Also, he is one of the modern masters of hand drawn lettering.
If it's good, flog it...these look pretty good, esp. the Crumb.
Crumb has nothing on Dawn Cerny- give her a Genius!
I don't see any parallels between Dawn Cerny and Robert Crumb.
I second @3!
@3- get your head outta yer ass. Crumb has helped shape the cultural landscape. Whom even knows who Cerny is outside of this region?
Cool that they're showing a free movie about Crumb there too.
Highly recommended. Kudos, Frye!
Wow...what a grouping of talentless hacks.

I have been reading through the documentation and I am just confused on how start making my own theme that is left aligned. Any insight is greatly appreciated.

We synthesize and update the science supporting the Action Plan for Reducing, Mitigating, and Controlling Hypoxia in the Northern Gulf of Mexico (Mississippi River/Gulf of Mexico Watershed Nutrient Task Force 2001) with a focus on the spatial and temporal discharge and patterns of nutrient and organic carbon delivery to the northern Gulf of Mexico, including data through 2006. The discharge of the Mississippi River watershed over 200 years varies but is not demonstrably increasing or decreasing. About 30% of the Mississippi River was shunted westward to form the Atchafalaya River, which redistributed water and nutrient loads on the shelf. Data on nitrogen concentrations from the early 1900s demonstrate that the seasonal and annual concentrations in the lower river have increased considerably since then, including a higher spring loading, following the increase in fertilizer applications after World WarII. The loading of total nitrogen (TN) fell from 1990 to 2006, but the loading of total phosphorus (TP) has risen slightly, resulting in a decline in the TN:TP ratios. The present TN:TP ratios hover around an average indicative of potential nitrogen limitation on phytoplankton growth, or balanced growth limitation, but not phosphorus limitation. The dissolved nitrogen:dissolved silicate ratios are near the Redfield ratio indicative of growth limitations on diatoms. Although nutrient concentrations are relatively high compared to those in many other large rivers, the water quality in the Mississippi River is not unique in that nutrient loads can be described by a variety of land-use models. There is no net removal of nitrogen from water flowing through the Atchafalaya basin, but the concentrations of TP and suspended sediments are lower at the exit point (Morgan City, Louisiana) than in the water entering the Atchafalaya basin. The removal of nutrients entering offshore waters through diversion of river water into wetlands is presently less than 1% of the total loadings going directly offshore, and would be less than 8% if the 10,093 km2 of coastal wetlands were successfully engineered for that purpose. Wetland loss is an insignificant contribution to the carbon loading offshore, compared to in situ marine production. The science-based conclusions in the Action Plan about nutrient loads and sources to the hypoxic zone off Louisiana are sustained by research and monitoring occurring in the subsequent 10 years.

NEW YORK (AP) - Jimmy Johnson got his man Sunday: Cecil Collins, the troubled, talented running back from Louisiana. And the Miami Dolphins needed no more than the first choice of the NFL draft's fifth round to get him.
"One of the good things about Cecil is he admits he made a lot of mistakes, stupid mistakes and wants to put his life back in order," Johnson said of Collins, who played just five college games at Louisiana State and McNeese State before injury and arrest ended his career.
"He's got tremendous running ability, can break tackles with great speed. He makes things happen every time he touches the ball."
The draft plodded through its second day in the theater at Madison Square Garden, even more of a sideshow than usual - seven floors above Wayne Gretzky was ending his hockey career for the New York Rangers against the Pittsburgh Penguins.
There was no run on quarterbacks like Saturday, when the first three picks overall and five of the first 12 went on the position.
Joe Germaine of Ohio State, whom some draft analysts thought might sneak into the first or second round, was chosen with the sixth pick of the fourth round by the St. Louis Rams - the eighth QB chosen. Aaron Brooks of Virginia went late in the fourth round to Green Bay, and Kevin Daft of Cal-Davis was taken by Tennessee in the fifth.
But no more went until the seventh round, when New England chose Michael Bishop, the Kansas State star who might also be used as a running back or wide receiver. Chris Greisen of Northwest Missouri, taken by Arizona, and Scott Covington of Miami, chosen by Cincinnati, went in the seventh round, making it 13 QBs drafted in 253 picks.
One player who dropped way down was safety Anthony Poindexter of Virginia, who would likely have been a first-round pick had he not severely injured his knee last season. He went to Baltimore in the seventh and final round. Notre Dame's star running back, Autry Denson, also went in the seventh - to Tampa Bay.
The last pick, who will be honored at "Irrelevant Week" in Newport Beach, Calif., was Jim Finn, chosen by Chicago. Finn, a running back from Pennsylvania, was in the audience and received a loud ovation from the sparse crowd remaining.
"Now I'm going to camp and prove I'm not Mr. Irrelevant," he said.
The trades continued Sunday.
The draft finished with 26, none bigger than Saturday's first-round blockbuster in which New Orleans surrendered its entire draft plus first- and third-round choices next year to Washington to select running back Ricky Williams with the fifth overall pick. The Redskins then dealt some of the acquired picks to Chicago, and ended up with cornerback Champ Bailey, the player they wanted anyway.
So New Orleans spent Sunday without a pick, the only time in draft history that a team had just one choice.
That made a Sunday headliner of Collins, who in a deal worked out just before the draft pleaded guilty to two misdemeanors and two felonies. He got four years probation for breaking into two apartments and fondling two young women.
Everyone in the NFL knew Johnson was willing to take a chance on him, as he did unsuccessfully with Lawrence Phillips two years ago. But nobody was sure when Jimmy would jump at a back who in three games at LSU in 1987 ran for 583 yards.
It turned out to be late enough so that it was practically a no-lose situation for the Dolphins, who hope Collins can emulate the feats of Minnesota wide receiver Randy Moss, who fell to 21st overall last season because of off-field problems and ended up an All-Pro and the offensive rookie of the year..
"My concern is giving people second chances. If they don't do what's right we go on with our business," said Johnson, who said Collins reminds him of "a faster Emmitt Smith." "He's a risk. That's why we waited until the fifth round. Everyone in the league wanted to take him."
