I don't know about you but my LO loves to draw but he always wants me to draw. He would be "I school bus, I firetruck, I star, I tree, or a truck" it either or of those things so i end up drawing maybe 15 school buses or the other objects a day.
Well my drawing has paid off because when I draw he wants to hold to marker with me and he would look very close to what I am drawing. Well last night, I started to noticed that he was drawing a car. He would draw a curve line at the top and one circle at each end of the curve line.
I was so excited so I just kep telling him awesome job. At first I was going to get mad because he is always aking me to draw and I am like no you draw!

Myf5 plays a major role in determining myogenic cell fate at the onset of skeletal muscle formation in the embryo and maintenance of its phenotype. we cloned the total coding region of duck Myf5 gene in this study. The total CDS region of duck Myf5 gene consists of 768 nucleotides and codes for 255 AA, including the bHLH domain. The similarity between duck and chicken is 90.5% at nucleotide level and 91.8% at protein level. Results showed that the Myf5 gene is conservative among different animal species and the evolution of Myf5 can well demonstrate the evolution of considered species. This work constructed the basis for further research on the molecular nature and genetic markers of Myf5 for embryonic muscle development and postnatal muscle growth.

Autonomous navigation by a mobile robot through L natural, unstructured terrain is one of the premier k challenges in field robotics. Tremendous advances V in autonomous navigation have been made recently in field robotics. Machine learning has played an increasingly important role in these advances. The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) UGCV-Perceptor Integration (UPI) program was conceived to take a fresh approach to all aspects of autonomous outdoor mobile robot design, from vehicle design to the design of perception and control systems with the goal of achieving a leap in performance to enable the next generation of robotic applications in commercial, industrial, and military applications. The essential problem addressed by the UPI program is to enable safe autonomous traverse of a robot from Point A to Point B in the least time possible given a series of waypoints in complex, unstructured terrain separated by 0.2-2 km. To accomplish this goal, machine learning techniques were heavily used to provide robust and adaptive performance, while simultaneously reducing the required development and deployment time. This article describes the autonomous system, Crusher, developed for the UPI program and the learning approaches that aided in its successful performance.

I would like postfix to send all emails received on SMTP off to an external process, which will decide whether to allow them through as normal, or whether to put them into the hold queue (or another quarantine area), where they have to wait for admin approval.
I was thinking of doing this with an after-queue content filter, which uses pipe(8) to run a script on each message, and the script itself will spawn "postsuper -h " if it decides to put the message on hold.
Then the admin can do postsuper -d or -r to delete or pass the message on as appropriate.
So, my questions are - a) will this work, and b) is this the best way to do it? Would a milter or another type of content filter be a better approach?

Civil War still divides AmericansBreaking News
Washington (CNN) - It has been 150 years since the Civil War began with the first shots at Fort Sumter on April 12, 1861, and in some respects views of the Confederacy and the role that slavery played in the events of 1861 still divide the public, according to a new national poll.
In the CNN/Opinion Research Corporation Poll released Tuesday, roughly one in four Americans said they sympathize more with the Confederacy than the Union, a figure that rises to nearly four in ten among white Southerners.
When asked the reason behind the Civil War, whether it was fought over slavery or states' rights, 52 percent of all Americans said the leaders of the Confederacy seceded to keep slavery legal in their state, but a sizeable 42 percent minority said slavery was not the main reason why those states seceded....

The Speakers of a seminar on "Welfare of girls", organised by HANDS and other social welfare organisations at Deputy Commissioner's Office Matiari on Friday have demanded amendment in Child Marriage Bill and making it more effective to prevent the child marriage in all sense.
They demanded the protection of the rights of children and to convert the bill into a welfare bill for children. They also demanded complete ban on the marriage of girls having an age below 18 years.
General Secretary HANDS Bilqees Rehman said that child marriage not only affect the health of children, but pushes them in psychological problems as well.
She said that child marriage has become a serious social issue of the country that needs much attention to get it resolved. She said the coming generation of the country depends upon a healthy mother which could give birth to healthy children for a healthy and disciplined society.
She demanded for giving severe punishment to the parents, who are responsible for child marriage.
The other speakers said that in rural area not only child marriage is taking place but innocent girls are being sold out as compensation of the personal sins of the parents.
They termed this act as a great violation of the human rights and demanded that the age of 18 years be fixed for marriage of girls and action taken against those who violate this law.
The Additional Deputy Commissioner-II Hyderabad Farakh Bashir and other government officers, workers of NGOs, elite citizens attended the seminar.

ATLANTA (AP) - Georgia would require that new drivers take a
written license test in English under a bill being considered by
state lawmakers.
The proposal has some employers and immigrant advocates worried
it would keep people unfamiliar with the language from being able
to work. Georgia is believed to be the only state that would have a
law requiring that drivers take the written test in English without
a translator or other aid. Versions of the bill have passed both
chambers of the Legislature, and lawmakers are trying to hash out
differences before the session ends tomorrow.
Supporters say it is a public safety measure because drivers
need to be able to read English to understand roadside signs and
warnings. Opponents argue that the measure unfairly targets
immigrants and may violate the 1964 Civil Rights Act.

Yesterday, Bryan Fischer penned a column in which he declared that Islam is a contagious disease that must be completely quarantined before it can infect America and done so by banning entry to any and all Muslims:
Islam is a contagious infection, a totalitarian ideology that threatens the social health of its infected host, the United States. This contagion needs to be contained by stopping Islamic immigration at our border. Just as we screen immigrants for contagious physical diseases, so we need to screen immigrants for contagious cultural diseases.
After Fischer read from his column during his radio program yesterday afternoon, he took calls from listeners, including one from Steven in Arkansas, who declared that, from a Christian perspective, "sharia law is probably preferable to what we have right now" in America where things like pornography and abortion are legal.
"They don't allow that in sharia law," Steven said, "so as far as that's concerned, they're probably a little bit more just than we are."
Fischer replied that Muslims "rightly accuse the United States of corrupting the morality of the entire world" because we allow the production and sale of pornography here.
"It's just embarrassing, it's humiliating that we have given them that" argument, Fischer declared. "When they go out and say the United States is the Great Satan because of all the pornography it produces, how do you argue against that because they are right. That is the work of Satan; we're producing it, we're distributing it all over around world, they have every right to complain about that":

Energy Conversion Gains Most in Three Years After Hiring CEO
Energy Conversion Devices Inc., the U.S. solar panel maker that suspended production and is attempting to restructure its debt, climbed the most in more than three years after it hired a new chief executive officer.
Energy Conversion rose 42 percent to 44 cents in New York, the biggest gain since May 2008. The stock had plunged 93 percent this year before today.
Julian Hawkins, a former senior vice president at Abound Solar Inc., will become president and CEO on Dec. 5, Energy Conversion Devices said today in a statement. Jay Knoll, who was interim president, will become executive vice president and chief restructuring officer of the Auburn Hills, Michigan-based company.
Energy Conversion Devices has been without a permanent chief since May, when CEO and President Mark Morelli resigned as sales fell 71 percent. The company is working to sell its Ovonic Battery Company unit and restructure $263 million in convertible notes. It said Nov. 8 it was shutting down production to sell off inventory.
Hawkins will focus on Energy Conversion Devices' solar business and Knoll will concentrate on seeking "strategic alternatives," according to the statement. The company has a market value of $22.6 million.
Energy Conversion Devices makes thin-film panels that it says are lighter than traditional solar products made from polysilicon. They compete against panels that are less expensive and convert sunlight into electricity more efficiently, putting the company at a disadvantage in a market where prices are falling amid an oversupply, said Adam Krop, an analyst at Ardour Capital Partners LLC in New York.
"The Chinese competitors are talking about scaling back their production in the fourth quarter of 2011," Krop said in an interview. "If the industry leaders are doing that, then I think the marginal players such as Energy Conversion Devices will face an even longer period of underutilization."

Is there an idiomatic way to simulate Perl's diamond operator in bash? With the diamond operator,
script.sh | ...
reads stdin for its input and
script.sh file1 file2 | ...
reads file1 and file2 for its input.
One other constraint is that I want to use the stdin in script.sh for something else other than input to my own script. The below code does what I want for the file1 file2 ... case above, but not for data provided on stdin.
command - $@ <<EOF
I'd prefer a Bash solution but any Unix shell is OK.
Edit: for clarification, here is the content of script.sh:
command - $@ <<EOF
I want this to work the way the diamond operator would work in Perl, but it only handles filenames-as-arguments right now.
Edit 2: I can't do anything that goes
because the stdin for command is not the user's data. The stdin for command is my data in the here-doc. I would like the user data to come in on the stdin of my script, but it can't be the stdin of the call to command inside my script.

What are energy and sports drinks?
If you listen to the advertising, you might think energy and sports drinks do it all. More energy. Improved performance. Better concentration.
But do they? And what's the difference between energy drinks and sports drinks?
Energy drinks
People use energy drinks because these drinks claim to improve energy, help with weight loss, increase endurance, and improve concentration. The main ingredient in energy drinks is caffeine. They also may contain extract from the guarana plant (which is similar to caffeine), the amino acid taurine, carbohydrate in the form of sugar, and vitamins.
Examples of energy drinks include Monster, Red Bull, and Rockstar.
Sports drinks
People use sports drinks to replace water (rehydrate) and electrolytes lost through sweating after activity. Electrolytes are minerals, such as potassium, calcium, sodium, and magnesium, that keep the body's balance of fluids at the proper level. You may lose electrolytes when you sweat.
Sports drinks can also restore carbohydrate that the body uses during activity.
Sports drinks often contain carbohydrate in the form of sugar, as well as electrolytes and minerals and sometimes protein, vitamins, or caffeine. They come in different flavors.
Examples of sports drinks include Accelerade, Gatorade, and Powerade.
Are energy drinks safe for children and teens?
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that children and teensnot use energy drinks.1 The best way for children and teens to improve energy is through a balanced diet. Getting enough sleep also can help keep energy levels up.
Why should children and teens avoid energy drinks? One reason is that the main ingredient in energy drinks is caffeine. It can cause problems in children and teens, including:
- Higher blood pressure.
- Sleep problems.
Energy drinks may make existing problems worse in children and teens. For example, energy drinks:
- Can make high blood pressure and abnormal heartbeats more likely in those with heart problems.
- Can increase blood sugar in those with diabetes.

35 Resort Reviews

I have been here once and had a nightmare with the service desk about buying the lift tickets ahead of time on the internet. Anyways I found that it was cheaper to wait and purchase your lift ticket when you arrive.
Although even though the customer service wasn't all that great, the quality of the snow was. It was very close to true powder conditions before late night in which it got a little icy then. The runs are short and offer a little bit of "off the main run" trails.
What really stood out at this resort was the kickers and the terrain park.
The kickers were all different sizes and required different speeds to clear the base.
There were all types of rails. Kinked, box, stairs, and a car in the middle of the run.
They also had a run called jib alley which really reminded me of a snowskate park with
small base type rails. I didn't actually spend anytime in the lodge although from the outside it looked nice. I did go into the ski shop and it was decent. Nothing to write home about and the prices were average. All in all if you are looking for a freestyle terrain parks, def check this place out although if you are looking for a freeride resort, look across the street at big boulders sister resort, Jack Frost. I would recommend spending a day here and a day at Jack Frost.. They are literally right across the street from one another.
As for lodging options, we stayed in a hotel about 20 minutes from the resorts although if you are looking for a 2 day stay, I would recommend looking at some of the on-mountain condos. Some are the same price as what we payed for the hotel.

Emma O'Brien and Sarah Whedon will present the workshop Full-Spectrum Doula Support at the 21st Biennial Conference of the Society for Menstrual Cycle Research at The Center for Women's Health and Human Rights, June 4-6, 2015, Suffolk University, Boston
Learn more about the Boston Doula Project.
In recent years the full-spectrum doula movement has arisen as an intervention in reproductive health provision in general and abortion provision specifically. Full-spectrum doulas provide free, non-judgmental, and empowering support for people undergoing reproductive experiences. In this one-hour workshop, members of the Boston Doula Project will discuss how full-spectrum doulas engage with the reproductive justice movement; prioritize the voices of marginalized people, including but not limited to people of color and queer, trans*, and gender-nonconforming people; destigmatize abortion by locating it on the reproductive lifecourse; and promote body literacy and empowerment for everybody to be their own best advocate.

I am cleaning up a really old mac to bring it back to use. It has an 80 gig hard drive and after wiping out downloads, documents, pictures, music, videos and unneccesary applications I am now stranded at about 48 gigs. I read that Leopard needs about 9 gigs, how do I get rid of the remaining 20 gb without reinstalling. Its been three and half years since I bought it and I could only find Part 2 of the recovery disk. (I have already gotten rid of iLife, iTunes, iWorks, Web Browsers, Printer Drivers etc as I need only terminal based facilities such as lynx and vi.) If anyone could point me to solutions for freeing up as much space as I can it'd be very helpful.
You can use Monolingual to trim the locales you don't require. This should trim at least a couple of GB.
The printer drivers are located in
Additionally, if it's a default install, it may have come with iLife. GarageBand loops also take up a few GB and are located in
There are other areas you can trim space, but those will net the biggest gains. You can also give programs like DaisyDisk a shot (or free equivalent). They'll show you how data is distributed on your hard drive, and allow you to further pinpoint cruft that can be removed.

Not to be too picayune about an otherwise quite complimentary piece, Brendan, but "Annex TheatRE" is spelled like that; always has been, always will be.
That's gonna be one frikkin' cute baby.
If Annex misspells a word everyone else has to?
Funny, my Webster's Seventh Collegiate Dictionary must have a typo then.
Brett Fetzer is a genius and Annex Theatre with thrive under his leadership. It's good to have more Jews leading Seattle alternative theatre groups. Mazel Tov!
Issur, I know you're just a troll, but Fetzer is about as far from Jewish as anyone can be.
Eric F @3: Check the big 5 in town - it's Seattle Repertory Theatre, A Contemporary Theatre, Intiman Theatre, Seattle Children's Theatre, The 5th Avenue Theatre. It's a convention, not a misspelling.
Anyway, congrats to Annex. May you be the powerhouse you've always been, only now with new (old) management, and better digs.
What became of NWAStudio? I know they had some people there that were involved with Judy-ism, yet the Studio is now gone? What does that tell us about those that do practise Judy-ism? I loved NWAStudio, I'm sure Annex will do wonderfully too, because I am sure some one there is involved with Judy-ism.
Yeah, my major was in "Theatre," but I've always found that anglophilic spelling annoying. When I was changing my tyre in front of Seattle Centre I got so mad at all the goofy theatre spellings that I threw a rock at Seattle Repertory Theatre, which is why I languish in the County Gaol.

My betz on Fetz, but people should cease spelling theater "theatre" this side of the pond--it makes them sound like faux Englishmen, T.S. Eliot types who say "ECK-tually" instead of actually and stir their tea with their tools when they think no one is looking--
Apparently some people are too poorly educated to be able to spell something other than how it's pronounced. What's next, nucular?
I gues some people are too poorly educated to be able to read a dictionary.
I'll begin spelling "theatre" using the alternative as soon as all you Anglophobes agree to change all the other words in the English Language ending in "re", such as:
Those are just a few, off the top of my head.
In short, the entire "theater versus theatre argument" is pointless, inane, and etymologically inconsequential.

Randy Hollis: Lillard's such a great ambassador for Utah — too bad he doesn't play for Jazz
Rick Bowmer, AP
SALT LAKE CITY — Damian Lillard has been a great ambassador for the state of Utah.
Ever since he came from California to play college basketball at Weber State six years ago, he has often mentioned how much he appreciates the way he was treated by the people here during his four-year career with the Wildcats.
Since being selected by the Portland Trail Blazers in the first round of the NBA draft in 2012, Lillard has returned to Ogden on several occasions, whether it was to attend WSU's annual purple and white intrasquad game, to train and work out or conduct a youth basketball clinic, or for "Damian Lillard Day" last summer in Ogden, where he graciously accepted the proverbial key to the city.
Heck, the city's chamber of commerce couldn't possibly ask for any better publicity than they get from Portland's All-Star point guard and last year's NBA Rookie of the Year.
"The biggest thing is the way they embrace people," Lillard said of the Beehive State's friendly folks as he prepared for Friday's game against the Utah Jazz. "I remember when I first got here my freshman year, people just showed me that love that I wasn't used to back home (in Oakland).
"And I got on the court and it was like they cheered me on like I had been here already. And when I became a little more popular and a little more well-known, people recognized me and they were really polite.
"And there's a lot more to do here, I think a lot more than people realize is going on in Utah," he said of the state's unfair nothing-to-do-here bad rap. "You think Utah, the first thing people think about is it's a Mormon state, and I think you've got to experience it to see the value here. I tell (my teammates) all the time it's a really nice place. But it's my time and it's my decision on where I like to spend my time at in summers or where I like to go back to, and this is definitely one of those places."
Lillard's strong ties to Northern Utah even played a part when it came time for him to choose what jersey number he'd wear in the NBA. He wears No. 0, which pays homage to Oakland, the city he grew up in; Ogden, where he played his college ball; and Oregon, the state where he plays now.
He made a special trip back to his second "home" in Northern Utah last month, when he could be seen sitting courtside at the Dee Events Center, cheering on the Wildcats as they won the Big Sky Conference championship and earned their first NCAA tournament trip since 2007 — a year before Lillard arrived on the Ogden campus.
Asked if his affection for Utah meant he might possibly wind up playing someday for the Jazz — whose front office was definitely very interested in drafting Damian before the Trail Blazers beat 'em to the punch in 2012 — Lillard smiled sheepishly and did his best to deflect the question like he would an opponent's entry pass into the paint.
"I'm real happy in Portland," he said. "I love the organization, I love the city, and I think that's a great place for me. I fit right in and hopefully I'll be there for my whole career.
"It's not often, you know, it doesn't happen too often where people get to spend their whole career with one team, but hopefully I do."
He readily admitted, though, that it's very flattering how much the people in Utah seem to love watching him play and how they would relish the chance to see him in a Jazz uniform someday.
"It is, it is," he said of Beehive State fans' mutual admiration society with him. "It's just like I said, it's that same love and they show you that love. Just the fact that they would love to have me here, and people express that to me over social network, I'm honored by that. I could never look past it.

You should see what they did to my namesake group, the hutterites, in a similar series. It was interesting, but did not represent them at all. I should imagine the amish will get the same from this outfit. Nonetheless, this isn't a chance for religion to play victim. They are examing groups that set themselves apart from society, and almost invariably they are doing so because they're religious. Reality is distorted on these shows, not just religion.

Let me get this straight - The Media is trying to give us a glimpse into a
religion few of us know about by highlighting individuals who have left it and
reject it?
Where have I seen this before?
Too many times to mention.
The answer is, do not watch it, and encourage your friends to not watch it. The goal is to make money, not to be forthcoming or objective about a religious group.
So if we don't watch, they sell no soap, the show gets canceled.

The primary purpose of entertainment channels is making money by entertaining, however misrepresentative. Making money is the end game. It is not to tell the truth or be sensitive and respectful to others, much less "learning." Crass is the word that comes to mind. Add to this their innate bias against religious values and the results are predictable.

It would seem that the best way to learn about these religions/groups would be to first, speak to the leaders, explain that we'd like to learn, and get permission for an entity like PBS (think Ken Burns) to "infiltrate" and, with some guidance and unobtrusive low-tech gadgets, be a little creative in learning how the society really lives. It may take longer. It may be more work. It will not be a spectator sport. And it will teach something. But if learning is the goal, isn't that all right? If what is wanted is what makes peoople want to leave, they can do that, too, but in a more erudite manner, as befits the educational aspect. It would not be easy to leave one's life and training, so why make it more difficult for the amusement of others? These people are not zoo animals--who, by the way, could also be treated better.

John Wayne Airport food fight heats up under new bidder
Updated Nov. 16: New food concepts proposed by Delaware North added to story
[gallery order="DESC" columns="4" orderby="title"]
Rival Orange County restaurant brands will face off later this month as two food service companies compete for expanded restaurant space inside a multi-million dollar terminal upgrade.
As part of a $543 million airport expansion, Orange County's largest airport will add a third terminal (Terminal C) that will contain a central marketplace of new fast-food and casual dining restaurants. Terminals A and B are also getting a face-lift, and a new mix of food tenants.
The latest bidder to speak up is Delaware North Companies, which brought Pink's Hot Dogs to LAX.
Delaware North had previously declined to reveal its competing airport proposal.� But this week, the company's senior director of business development told The Register that its airport plan calls for a Wahoo's Fish Taco, a John Wayne-themed restaurant and bar and three Food Network-inspired eateries.
[caption id="attachment_77274" align="alignright" width="300" caption="Rendering of Marketplace food court in Terminal C"][/caption]
"We really believe we pulled together the best brands and design to capture and win the hearts of the Orange County folks," executive Nick Schaefer said. "We're looking forward to doing this project, and bring it to life."
The New York-based hospitality company is going up against HMS Host International, which has been providing concessions at the airport since 1992.
In an earlier exclusive report, HMS told the Register that it hopes to add a string of local restaurant chains to the remodeled terminals.
Among the chains proposed to enter the airport under the HMS plans are Javi's Cantina, Ruby's Diner, Zov's Bakery & Cafe and Jerry's Wood-Fired Dogs. The company also plans to add an Anaheim Ducks-themed bar and grill.
(Get full details on the proposal: Food bidding war ignites at JWA)
An airport panel is expected to make recommendations by Nov. 17. The Board of Supervisors will vote on the food proposals in December.
Here's a rundown of Delaware North's proposal:
Food Network Kitchen: This new concept is expected to showcase recipes from culinary staff at the Food Network. It will offer a range of restaurant services -- a self-order kiosk to casual dining to a bar.� "It has all the service styles to accommodate the travelers,"� Schaefer said.� � The menu, which is still under development, will not be tied to any specific Food Network celebrity chef, he said.� The restaurant will also features flatscreen TVs, which will air taped Food Network programs that highlight or feature Orange County restaurants. The 4,700-square-foot restaurant is proposed for Terminal C, the new wing of the airport. If approved, the Food Network Kitchen at John Wayne Airport will be the first of several to debut at other airports where Delaware operates concessions.
Iron Chef restaurants: Delaware North is proposing two Iron Chef themed fast-casual eateries. One is CCQ, a barbecue counter service restaurant by celebrity chef and Food Network star Cat Cora. The other is Skewers by Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto.� Both will be located side by side in Terminal B, where the Oasis bar and grill currently operates.
- CCQ (Cat Cora Barbecue) is the same upscale fast-casual eatery at the Signature Kitchen in Macy's at South Coast Plaza. It features barbecue sandwiches.
- Skewers will be a fast-casual Asian barbecue concept by Iron Chef Morimoto. The eatery, which was recently approved for LAX, will feature marinated meats cooked over an open flame. The restaurant will focus on yakitori-style meals or skewered meats with vegetables grilled or fried and served with rice bowls. Schaefer said the eatery will prepare "Japanese street food with an Iron Chef flair." The Skewers at LAX is slated to open before the end of 2011.
True Grit Grill: This original bar and grill concept will pay tribute to the airport's namesake: John Wayne. Named after one of the actor's most famous movies, the True Grit restaurant will sport a menu and decor themed after the film.� It will feature traditional American cuisine. The table service restaurant will have a bar dubbed Rooster Cogburn's Saloon, which is named after Wayne's character in the movie.� "It brings to life the legacy of John Wayne," Schaefer said. Both venues will be located in Terminal B.
Wahoo's Fish Taco: The Santa Ana-based chain is partnering with Delaware North to bring its famous fish tacos, burritos and rice bowls to Terminal C.
Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf: While rival bidder HMS Host plans to keep three Starbucks locations at the airport, Delaware North hopes to oust the big Green Machine from Seattle by teaming up with Coffee Bean. The cafe, if approved, would have locations in all three terminals.
Schaefer declined to reveal Delaware's other food plans for the airport.
NOV. 16 UPDATE: Delaware North's proposal was recommended by airport staff as the superior proposal.� In the staff report, the following additional food concessions are listed in Delaware North's plan: Firewood Cafe, Dos Equis Explorer Lounge, Corky Carroll's Surf Bar and Heineken Lounge. (Read follow up story: Wahoo's In, Starbucks out at JWA)
The Orange County Airport Commission is scheduled to review the various food proposals this month, and make recommendations to the Board of Supervisors.� Two weeks ago, the panel recommended three independent food concessions for the airport:� Subway, a wine bar, and a candy shop.
McDonald's is also bidding to keep its location. Its main challenger is Carl's Jr.
The supervisors are expected to vote on food recommendations in December. The expansion will allow the airport to handle a maximum of 10.8 million passengers when completed in November 2011.

It was there & then that I said to myself:- 'One day I am going to retire here'. And I did ! And I am very happy !
Keep up the good work, I still read you daily !
Happy Christmas & New Year to you all !

EVANS, Ga. (AP) -- A Georgia is facing criminal charges after three women say he groped their bodies at Walmart stores in Columbia County.
Reports say 33-year-old Javantroi Perez Walden has been charged with three counts of misdemeanor sexual battery. Investigators say one of the assaults was captured on surveillance video in the store.
Walden was arrested Monday after the gropings were reported at two separate stores Saturday.
A 57-year-old woman told police a man at the Walmart in Evans grabbed her breast and then ran. Less than an hour later, two women shopping at another Walmart in neighboring Martinez reported being groped.
Walden was being held at the Columbia County jail on $19,700 bond. It was unknown if he had an attorney.

When I made this recipie I didnt have almonds of any kind...so I used desicated coconut.......and I exchanged the butter for 150ml of sunflower oil.
I nearly got mugged for the finished product! Went down a storm!
Am having to make it again this week...and i now have almonds....so i will try one with almonds........and one with coconut.
I love this recipe, I've made it a few times and always goes down a storm. Last time I bought it to a friends dinner party and was begged to pop home and make another one as it was eaten in about 5 seconds flat!
I have substituted the raspberries with blueberries or blackberries or a mix of all three whatever is available. I've also used slightly more ground almonds and less flour which makes it lovely and gooey, oh and at least 3 tablespoons of flaked almonds.
No wonder this recipe gets top mark, it is really that good and that easy! I was worried at first as the batter was really stiff and very difficult to spread in the tin especially for the top layer. But it turned out perfectly. I added almond essence to and cooked it in a tray, which made perfect little square portions. Will make again.
I so cocked up this recipe when baking, busy juggling work calls and kids. First forgot flour and had to scoop out of tin and mix in, then Forgot to do the half and half raspberry in the middle thing so ended up kind of stirring it about a bit. Bunged it in the oven......... 50mins later hey presto the cake fairy had been and put it right, delicious cake yummy!!!! Super easy recipe if you concentrate, bomb proof if you don't!
A VERY easy and delicious cake. I had unexpected visitors and easily made this in 10min (before cooking time). I didn't have enough ground almonds so added 70g gr almonds and 70g desicated coconut and it turned out really well. Tha cake is moist and the raspberries really cut though the cake - i only used 150g and was plenty in there! Will def make again as is so easy, tasty and looks impressive!

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Tennessee defensive coordinator Justin
Wilcox says the Volunteers have plenty of players with potential to
contribute on defense, but he's looking for players who are
productive during fall practice.
Malik Jackson is the only returning starter in Tennessee's front
seven on defense. The Vols return four starters in the secondary.
Wilcox said Thursday that it may take several games to settle on
a rotation on the defensive line and at linebacker, where the Vols
lost starter Herman Lathers when he broke his ankle in June. The
junior is expected to miss several games of the 2011 season.
Wilcox says the defense looks a bit bigger this season with the
addition of some larger linemen in the 2011 signing class.

text: Posted March 14, 2013 "We aren't in a win now situation like Denver or like Miami who has to make a big push or risk losing all their fans." I must respectfully disagree with this statement. First of all, as long as this guy named Peyton is playing QB in Denver, they'll have no problems keeping the fan base excited. Second, Miami is making major strides in the free agent market and have already improved their team far more than expected. Carolina was able to keep some of the fan base with the Newton draft, but following the JR lockout debacle, a couple mediocre seasons and Marty Hurney screwing the team's financial situation for another 3 years, I think the Panthers are right on the brink, if not already going over the edge, of losing their fan base. Keep seeing more and more opposing teams' fans in the stadium? Having a hard time recognizing anyone sitting around you at every home game? This is usually a good sign the PSL owners are selling their seats. And since the stadium is full of paid for seats, the number of fans in the stadium is no indication of fan support. The true indication of a loss of fan support are the numbers of tickets being scalped away any given Sunday morning... and there are a ton of those. This. I have never felt more outnumbered at homes games than the last 3 years. The 2013 season will be even worse with the teams we have coming to town. This is all on JR and Hurney.

Is there an enhancment/plugin to Lucene which would allow queries like myNumericalField > 100 I know that usually one has to index such fields as text with the property a > b => lex(text(a)) > lex(text(b)) and devise the text(n) transformation appropriately. What I'm looking for is an enhancement which would eliminate the a -> text(a) transformation or simplify it. Is it necessary f.ex. to implement the above query as a range query 100 <= myNumericalField <= 999999999999999999999999..... Since many people use numeric field, I guess there exists some enhancement allready that simplifz the treatment of numerical fields.

SEATTLE -- Cliff Lee was in Seattle for a couple hours Friday before he had to field questions about his plans. Months away from his first pitch for the Mariners, everyone wanted to know what the ace left-hander would do when his contract ends this fall.
The 2008 AL Cy Young Award winner was ready.
"I want a 10-year deal for about 200 billion dollars," the 31-year-old Lee cracked with a straight face.
Talk about a memorable first impression.
Seattle introduced the centerpiece of its offseason overhaul a month after it acquired him from Philadelphia as part of a complicated, four-team deal. The Phillies traded for Lee last season and he helped them reach the World Series.
The Mariners are hoping for their own deep postseason run with Lee and fellow ace Felix Hernandez anchoring their rotation.
"I don't think there's any question that with Cliff and Felix at the top of our rotation, it's something that a lot of people have to take notice to," general manager Jack Zduriencik said. "To acquire someone [of] this magnitude and match him up with Felix Hernandez ... it's very special."
Lee has one year and $9 million remaining on his contract. He was introduced one day after Seattle signed Hernandez to a five-year contract worth $78 million.
Lee said he would rather not negotiate an extension during the season because of the distraction. And Zduriencik said Seattle hasn't broached the subject with Lee's representatives.
The Mariners want Lee to get to know his teammates for now, inside what the GM thinks is a "special" clubhouse situation. Ken Griffey Jr. helped brighten the atmosphere around the team last year, a factor in the club's turnaround from 101 losses to an 85-77 record in 2009.
"There's a balance here," Zduriencik said. "What we're hoping is he rolls in here and falls in love."
The vibes surrounding Lee weren't so mushy when Philadelphia traded him last month. Even Zduriencik said he was "very surprised" to see how excited Lee and his wife Kristen were to be in Seattle when they spoke in the GM's office Friday, given Zduriencik noticed Lee had said on a conference call 24 hours after the Phillies dealt him that he was in "disbelief and shock."
Lee went 7-4 with a 3.39 ERA for Philadelphia after he was acquired from Cleveland on July 29. He was even better in the playoffs, going 4-0 with a 1.56 ERA in five starts.
Lee, who earned both of the Phillies' wins in the World Series against the Yankees, had been excited to rejoin Philadelphia. Then, on the same day he made a counter proposal to the Phillies in negotiations on a multiyear contract, Philadelphia opted to trade him to help clear the way for a deal for fellow AL Cy Young Award winner Roy Halladay.
Suddenly, the father of an 8-year-old son (Jaxon) and 6-year-old daughter (Maci) was headed far away from their home in Arkansas, to his third team in five months.
"I thought I'd be spending the rest of my career there," Lee said in December. "I was under the impression they wanted to keep me there for a long time."
Friday, he emphasized his disappointment wasn't in going to Seattle. It was in leaving Philadelphia.
"It took me a few days [to get over it]," he said. "It was just shock.
"I'm going to make the best of it. I think it's going to be a good thing for me and my career. I think it's going to work out for the better."
He said Seattle has been one of his favorite road cities since his first full season in the majors with the Indians in 2004. And before Lee was introduced, Mariners executives showed him around Safeco Field.
Seattle's big ballpark combined with sterling defensive outfielders Ichiro Suzuki and Franklin Gutierrez could make Lee even tougher at home.
"I'm excited to be here. I'm back in the American League, with one of the best defenses in the American League," Lee said, also mentioning Mariners infielders Jack Wilson, Chone Figgins and Casey Kotchman. "To be a starting pitcher, you've got to like that."
He said he hopes to have the same positive, World Series experience in Seattle that he had in a few months with the Phillies.
"My mindset last year was, play my contract out and enter free agency," he said. "Going to Philadelphia changed that. I wanted to stay there.
"I'm hoping I get here and a similar thing happens."

A generation ago it was called as roughage and was recommended as a cure for constipation. Today, it is called fiber and aids in preventing constipation. It also has other benefits. Foods rich in fibers can lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels and they thus decrease the risk of heart attacks. They can also help to lose weight. Dietary fibers can prevent or treat intestinal diseases and cancers. They also help in treatment of diabetes. Fibers are easy to get, as many foods contain abundance of fibers. Non-vegetarian foods appear fibrous and are touch to chew. But this is misleading. What are dietary fibers? The answer is dietary fibers are that part of the plant that one's body cannot digest. What out body needs is vegetable or plant fiber. It is of various varieties and is found more in unrefined and raw foods. Overcooking destroys fibers. There are two main types of fibers:

Mobile fire station to provide protection in Dularge
Published: Monday, February 16, 2009 at 3:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, February 16, 2009 at 2:41 p.m.
HOUMA As Dularge Fire Departments central station and crew retreat to higher ground, fire officials plan to man a trailer in the southern reaches of the bayou community to compensate for the departure.
The trailer, bought with Federal Emergency Management Administration money, will serve as the sole fire-protection outpost in an area where some residents say they feel isolated from the service.
Dularge Fire Chief Quint Liner said the communitys Fire District Board made the decision after the Terrebonne Parish Council agreed to condemn its twice-flooded central station on Falgout Canal.
Residents in the lower bayou pay taxes just like everyone else, and they deserve the protection, he said.
The departments insurance company has refused to continue covering the station, which flooded during Hurricane Rita in 2005 and Hurricane Ike in 2008, Liner said. A new two-story station is planned further north, but it is still in the design stages.
The move puts the central station on the north side of the Falgout Canal Bridge, which suffers from frequent mechanical failure. Some residents said they fear a broken bridge could present a fire truck from crossing the canal in an emergency.
The new station could have been built in the lower part of the bayou, but the department would have lost money from FEMA, which plans to pay for 90 percent of the replacement station, Liner said.
Some residents, whose homes and businesses flood during hurricanes, are reacting with a mix of concern and resignation. They want the station to remain close, but they understand the need for moving it.
Condemning the building I have no problem with that because of the cost, said Allen Knight, 68, who lives adjacent to the ruined central station.
Knight knows well the impact of flooding, he said. Two feet of water flooded his home during last years storm. His house is still undergoing repairs.
When the station moves to the north side of Falgout Canal Bridge, he said he wonders what will happen if a blaze occurs and the bridge fails.
The big fire trucks will be stuck up the bayou, he said. What do you do, you know?
Others say the community wont be compromised by the stations move and the department has had reliable response times in the past.
Its not a big concern down here, said Cliff Walker, 50, who described the community as quiet and self-reliant. Most people look out for themselves.
Some residents say their concern about whether the department can reach them is very real because their own ability to get in and out of lower Dularge is made difficult by bridge failures.
If both bridges that provide access to the community the Falgout Canal and Dulac Pontoon bridges fail, then it becomes an island, said Roy Billiot, 58, a commercial fisherman.
If those break, then what you got? You got to think about that stuff, he said.
Despite the communitys distance from the station, Billiot said the manned trailer could provide adequate protection if the firefighters who man it are well trained.
(Get) someone who can take the initiative and do it right, he said. Get someone reliable.

Deus Ex domain registrations have popped up for something called Deus Ex: The Fall. Variants for the UK, France, Italy, Germany and your standard .com and .net are listed. As usual, the lot was found by Superannuation. Over the weekend, it was confirmed that the Deus Ex: Human Defiance trademark which popped up last week were for the movie based on the franchise and not a new game in the series after a domain registration filed by CBS Films was discovered. Is it a new game in the series? We're not even going to try and guess what it is for at this point, but we'll still send a mail.

|Peter Chiarelli: Bruins' acquisition of Jaromir Jagr similar to that of Mark Recchi
|04.02.13 at 6:41 pm ET
Bruins general manager Peter Chiarelli met with the media shortly before Tuesday night's game against the Senators to discuss the team's acquisition of Jaromir Jagr. The Bruins sent Lane MacDermid, the rights to 2012 fifth-rounder Cody Payne and a conditional second-round pick to the Stars in exchange for the 41-year-old.
"He's a terrific player who's won some Cups and has been a superstar player," Chiarelli said. "I liken it a little to — and I told Jaromir this, too — the addition of Mark Recchi. You don't have to be the guy, but you're an important piece and you can band together with your teammates. You've got the experience, you've got a certain skillset, size or whatever you want to call it that will benefit the rest of the group. But really, you've won, you have experience and you want to win still. That was an important question and he was very receptive to that."
Chiarelli said the Bruins had scouted Jagr since he returned to the NHL, but never pursued him in free agency over the last two years. They expressed interest in trading for Jagr earlier in the season, but didn't know whether the Stars would make him available. Despite the uncertainty, Chiarelli said that the teams were able to put together "ground work" for a deal, which made it easy to complete after the Stars made it known Monday night that Jagr was available. The teams wrapped up the deal Tuesday morning.
This season, Jagr has 14 goals and 12 assists for 26 points. He figures to fit in on the right wing of either David Krejci's line or the third line with Rich Peverley.
"I do know the options, but well have to see how he fits in," he said. "Obviously there's a need on the third line, but he's got a higher line pedigree. What I said to Jaromir was that we pride ourselves on four strong lines. He's an important part, but not the part to success, so he could be on the third. There are times when our fourth line has been our third line and vice versa, so it depends on who's going, but we try to even it out, and he seemed very receptive to that."

|Pierre McGuire on M&M: 'I don't think Calgary paid attention to doing their due diligence'
|03.29.13 at 12:10 pm ET
NBC's Pierre McGuire joined Mut & Merloni on Friday to talk about what went wrong with the Jarome Iginla trade and what the Bruins can do now that Iginla is off the market.
McGuire said Bruins GM Peter Chiarelli did nothing wrong to jeopardize the Iginla deal. Rather, Flames GM Jay Feaster mishandled the trade — not the first time Calgary's management has made a visible mistake this year.
"I don't think Calgary paid attention to doing their due diligence. I really don't," McGuire said. "Jay Feaster, I'm sure, told Peter Chiarelli, 'You guys have won the sweepstakes. You have Jarome Iginla. I'm sure he told them that, because I was in Boston to do that game, and there's no way there was that much information that was so fluid around the Bruins dressing room when I got to the rink at 4:30, that you didn't know that this deal was going down. So '¦ then Jay Feaster didn't prioritize. He should have called [Iginla's agent] Donny Meehan before he called Peter Chiarelli.
"Instead, he told Boston they had the player, and Donny Meehan gets the call from Feaster saying he's been traded, and Donny Meehan says, 'No, no, that's not how this works.' '¦ I think the biggest reason there was no trade call made was when Jay Feaster called Donny Meehan and said, 'By the way, we've moved Jarome to Boston,' Donny Meehan said, 'No you haven't, because Jarome wants to go to Pittsburgh.' "
Iginla's press conference after the trade made clear that he was headed to Pittsburgh no matter what Chiarelli did, McGuire said.
"When you heard him talk, he said, 'How can you blow away now playing with the two best players in the world?' " McGuire said. "With all due respect, he wasn't talking about [David] Krejci and he wasn't talking about [Patrice] Bergeron. Both guys are great players. He was talking about Crosby and Malkin."
With Iginla off the table, McGuire said he thinks the Bruins should focus on acquiring a defenseman, and mentioned 35-year-old Islanders blueliner Mark Streit as a possibility.
|Peter Chiarelli: Flames told Bruins they had a deal for Jarome Iginla
|03.28.13 at 4:03 pm ET
Bruins general manager Peter Chiarelli held a press conference Thursday at TD Garden to inform the media of what took place Wednesday as the B's thought they had acquired Flames captain Jarome Iginla, only to see him get dealt to the Penguins.
The Bruins and Flames agreed to a deal that would sent Alexander Khokhlachev, Matt Bartkowski and a non-conditional first-round pick to the Flames for Iginla. The 35-year-old had put the Bruins on a list of four teams for which he'd move his no-trade clause, but after the Flames told the Bruins that they had "won the sweepstakes" and scratched their captain Wednesday for the sake of the trade, Iginla informed Flames general manager Jay Feaster that he wanted to play for the Penguins. The Flames then completed a deal with Pittsburgh to accommodate the player.
Chiarelli said that he was "assured that the list was teams the he would go to and waive his no-trade" and that he never had an indication throughout the process that it was an ordered list of any kind.
"I guess you initially feel [hoodwinked], but I've been around for a while and i've seen things happen similar to this, and it happens," he said. "We were on the list, and you assume that once you come to a deal, that you're going to get the player. That's what I was operating under."
Chiarelli described the events of Wednesday as such:
"We were informed around noon yesterday that we had the player, we'd won the sweepstakes, so to speak. [Feaster] just had to talk to Jarome and his agent regarding logistics of everything. From that point on, there had been some discussions regarding Jarome taking some time, not to decide, but to let things soak in.
"Then we had our game and prior to that, we'd made moves, as did they. They scratched Jarome. We'd made moves, scratching Bart and Koko, who was playing in Providence. We brought up Torey [Krug], and we relied on the fact that we had a deal.
"Now, these things happen all the time — more than you know — about deals going south for whatever reason. We believed we had a deal and we operated on the premise of the deal. When things were silent — obviously, in my experience, when things go silent, usually something is going screwy from your end. It was.
"Later that night, around 12, I got a call from Jay saying that it was the player's choice and he opted to go to Pittsburgh, so we were out. That's it in a nutshell."
Chiarelli said that he asked for the opportunity to speak to Iginla, but "didn't get it." Asked if he was surprised to see this happen to a team that's been a destination of sorts for players in recent years, he guessed that the Penguins' 13-game win streak may have made up Iginla's mind.
"Here's what I think: I think that Pitt, and God bless them because I like Ray Shero and the whole group there, Pitt has been on this amazing run, and we've been in and out a little bit lately," Chiarelli said. "We're a very good team, and I think as the wind blows in the last couple of days, I think that's how it goes."
|Peter Chiarelli still doesn't expect Tim Thomas to play this season
|02.07.13 at 7:06 pm ET
Speaking to the media on a conference call following the trade of Tim Thomas to the Islanders, Bruins general manager Peter Chiarelli said Thursday that based on his discussions with agent Bill Zito, he does not expect Thomas to play for the Islanders this season.
"Nothing would suggest to me that he's coming back this season, no, in my discussions with the agent," Chiarelli said.
Thomas is in the final year of his deal, and Thursday's trade would net the Bruins a draft pick in 2014 or 2015 if Thomas plays a game.
"Without getting into specifics, the condition [of the pick] is basically if he plays," Chiarelli said. "There's a bunch of different ways how to couch how he plays or where he plays or when he plays, but it's if he plays."
Chiarelli said at the open of training camp that Thomas still planned on playing next season, but said that talks with Zito led him to believe he "misstated" that information.
Said Chiarelli: "It's better stated, coming from Bill, that he's still contemplating playing next year."

|Bruins press conference held up by memorandum of understanding
|01.12.13 at 2:56 pm ET
Because the memorandum of understanding regarding the new collective bargaining agreement had yet to be signed, the Bruins were forced to postpone and eventually cancel Saturday's press conference with president Cam Neely and general manager Peter Chiarelli.
The MOU is essentially a place-holder for the language in the recently agreed-upon CBA, which would allow the season to get going while the CBA is finalized. It's a minor technicality and shouldn't cause any reason for concern. The B's plan on having the press conference as soon as they can, likely Sunday.
|Dougie Hamilton's OHL coach: 'Once the lockout ends, he will join the Bruins'
|09.14.12 at 6:11 pm ET
Friday's news that the Bruins had assigned Dougie Hamilton back to his OHL team meant that the Bruins had to be pretty darn sure that they'd be able to get him back once the lockout ended.
While the CHL/NHL transfer agreement expired this summer, Bruins general manager Peter Chiarelli said last week that he was confident that teams would be able to assign junior-eligible players to their junior teams and recall at least one of them to the NHL once a new CBA was reached, and that Hamilton would be that player for the B's. Following Hamilton's assignment, Niagara IceDogs coach and general manager Marty Williamson told WEEI.com that it's everyone's understanding that Hamilton will be a Bruin as soon as the lockout ends.
"Absolutely," Williamson said. "There's no way our league's going to stop these guys from going [to the NHL]. I know 100 percent they're behind it that as soon as the lockout ends, that he will join the Bruins."
Hamilton, who would have attended this week's Bruins rookie camp (the camp, which was slated to begin Friday was cancelled due to CBA uncertainty), has been practicing with the IceDogs for nearly two weeks, according to Williamson. Now that he's officially been assigned to the OHL, he will play in his first game next Thursday.
The ninth overall pick in the 2011 draft, Hamilton had 72 points last season in 50 regular-season games.
|Why Claude Julien is a perfect fit for the Bruins
|07.24.12 at 3:49 pm ET
There are plenty of reasons Peter Chiarelli and Bruins management decided to extend the contract of Claude Julien this week.
First of all, his contract was expired after last season.
Secondly, no one else since Harry Sinden has been behind the bench as the Bruins won the Stanley Cup.
And thirdly, no one is more respected for his ability to blend character, discipline and humor the way Julien has since taking over for Dave Lewis after the 2006-07 season.
There's another much more subtle reason to keep Julien behind the bench for the Black and Gold – stability. Should the Bruins and the rest of the NHL not figure out their pending labor issues by the Sept. 15 deadline, the season could easily be shortened, and like the NFL and NBA in 2011, teams may have to wing it to get their teams ready for competition.
No one knows more what he wants or expects from the Bruins than Julien.
"The one thing you try to do as a coach is keep things fresh," Julien said at his contract extension press conference at TD Garden Tuesday. "Every year you try to attack certain areas that will maybe change just a little bit that will give guys a fresher look. That's how you keep your team interested, intact and hopefully competitive."
To Chiarelli, what he sees is a coach over five years that hasn't just won a Stanley Cup, he's instilled just the right amount of discipline, walking that fine line between motivation and expectation from his players.
"Leadership in a coach manifests itself different ways with different people," Chiarelli said. "To me, I like to talk about a coach's persona. His person in a venue like this [press conference] and his persona in the room. It's about commanding respect. It's about motivating the players in a respectful way and a professional way. It's about the ideas, the formats, the approaches. It's all professional, it's all to an end. There's a plan.
"Claude's ability to have that persona and have players respect what he stands for and to be able to deliver that message in a way that engages them, that's what I see as leadership and that's what Claude has, and a large part of that leadership is character."
For Julien, there have been rocky times to be sure. Remember the May 13, 2010 when the Flyers completed their comeback from 3-0 down to eliminate the Bruins? Remember in their Cup run of 2011 when P.K. Subban scored to force overtime in Game 7 in the first round. If the Bruins don't win that game, it's a near certainty that Julien is not up on the dais Tuesday talking about his vision for the Bruins. Even this year, when the Bruins were fading a bit in the final two months of the season, falling from first to third in the East, there were whispers that players were tuning out Julien.
