- Phases- plasma, solid, liquid, and gas. (However, only the last three will be addressed here)
- Evaporation- change of phase from liquid to gas that takes place at the surface of a liquid.
- Condensation- the changing of a gas to a liquid.
- Saturated- the air when the water vapor limit is reached.
- Relative Humidity- how much water vapor is in the air, compared with the limit for that temperature.
- Equilibrium- a state of balance.
- Boiling- change of liquid to a gas, the gas that forms beneath the surface causes bubbles and the bubbles are buoyed upward to the surface, where they escape into the surrounding air.
- Freezing- when energy is extracted from water at a temperature of 0°C and at atmosphere pressure, ice is formed.
- Regelation- The phenomenon of melting under pressure and freezing again when the pressure is reduced.[11]
Evaporation and Condensation
Evaporation and Condensation are practically the same process but go in the opposite direction. Condensation is the process of a gas turning into a liquid, and evaporation i

Boiling and Freezing----
To oversimplify only a little, temperature is a measure of how much energy there is in molecular motion. To begin with an explicit example, let's consider water. When water molecules are cold enough, they don't have much heat energy so they don't jostle around too much. Consequently, they can pack together in a very organised structure, called ice. At high enough temperatures, they have so much energy that they can escape the attraction of their neighbours. So they form steam, in which the molecules fly all over the place in a very disordered way. At medium temperatures, which means that the molecules have moderate amounts of energy (and if the pressure is high enough) they form liquid water. Here the molecules have enough energy to move around, but not enough to escape from their neighbours entirely. Molecules in liquid water are more ordered than in steam but less ordered than ice. (As an example of the order in a liquid, we can observe that the centre of each molecule is about one molecular diameter away from that of its nearest neighbours.) Whenever molecules evaporate from a liquid the boundary layer between the liquid and the vapor will move. When the liquid contains a non volatile solute, the moving boundary will transfer energy to the solute molecules. This energy is included in the evaporation process, therefore, it will affect the vapor pressure and boiling temperature of a solution. Similarly, during freezing, or melting, the boundary movement between the solution and pure solid will affect the freezing temperature. In both cases the moving boundary works against the osmotic pressure generated by the solute.[5][6]

When making a snow ball, regelation is used. Compressing the snow causes slight melting which binds the snowball. In the picture to the right is regelation of ice by round wires. The motion of wires pulled transversely through ice is in terms of pressure melting at the front of the wire and regelation behind it, the speed of the process being controlled by the rate of conduction of the heat of fusion through the wire and the ice. Measurements of the fractional volume of water in the trace show that above the transition heat flows to the moving wire from the surrounding ice. The low speed below the transition is due to the presence of accumulated solutes in the water layer around the wire, which concentrate toward the rear, lowering the freezing temperature there and hence the rate of heat flow toward the front. The transition occurs when the temperature at the rear reaches the triple point, which fixes the pressure there, so that with increasing driving stress the mean pressure around the wire increases and hence the mean temperature decreases, causing heat flow to the wire and formation of the trace, which carries away the dissolved solutes.[7][11]
Saturation, Relative Humidity, and Equilibrium
Saturation-The saturation level of the air is directly related to the air's temperature. As air temperature increases, more water can remain in a gas phase. As temperature decreases, water molecules slow down and there is a greater chance for them to condense on to surfaces. The graph below shows the relationship between air temperature and vapor pressure, a measure of the humidity, at saturation.
Relative Humidity-The amount of water vapor in the air at any given time is usually less than that required to saturate the air. The relative humidity is the percent of saturation humidity, generally calculated in relation to saturated vapor density. Relative humidity is the amount of moisture in the air compared to what the air can "hold" at that temperature. When the air can't "hold" all the moisture, then it condenses as dew. The equation to find relative humidity is:
Equilibrium is a state of balance, an example of this would be: A book sitting on a table top remains at rest because the downward force exerted by the earth's gravity acting on the book's mass is exactly balanced by the repulsive force between atoms that prevents two objects from simultaneously occupying the same space, acting in this case between the table surface and the book. If you pick up the book and raise it above the table top, the additional upward force exerted by your arm ends the state of equilibrium as the book moves upward. If you wish to hold the book at rest above the table, you adjust the upward force to exactly balance the weight of the book, this then becomes restoring equilibrium. [8][9][10][11]

Santuario della Beata Vergine di San Luca, View II
"Upon another hill, stands the celebrated church of the Madonna di St. Luca, three miles from Bologna. A portico consisting of seven hundred arcades reaches from it to the gate of the city. The church itself is magnificent, and its interior splendidly decorated; but its brightest ornament is the portrait of the Madonna, painted by St. Luke."
— from "Rambles in Italy: in the Years 1816 and 1817" by James Sloan and Theodore Lyman
The views from the various points around the grounds of St. Luke's are breathtaking.

Santuario della Beata Vergine di San Luca, View I
"We were present at the great annual procession of the "Madonna di St. Luca." This is a lady almost as distinguished as her namesake at Loreto, being one of the black images painted (as the story is) by St. Luke, and brought to the Church of St. Luke from Constantinople by a hermit in 1160, whence every year she pays a visit of a few days to the cathedral. St. Luke's stands on a very high hill, from whence the view is almost unbounded, from the Adriatic to the Apennines, embracing the rich plains of Lombardy."
— from "Memoir of James Ewing of Strathlever" 1866 by Macintosh Mackay
WHAT WE SAW From the terraces and balconies at Santuario della Beata Vergine di San Luca we saw the beautiful hills that stretched out before us as a green carpet. We saw down into Bologna's historic center. We did not see the Adriatic, nor the plains of Lombardy.
The views from the sanctuary are dramatic and it is a cool, calm escape from the city.

Santuario della Beata Vergine di San Luca, Part II
Lungo l'autostrada da lontano ti vedró, ecco lá le luci di San Luca
(Along the motorway from afar I'll see you, there they are the lights of San Luca)
— from "Dark Bologna" by the Bolognese singer-songwriter Lucio Dalla
OBJECT OF OUR CLIMB After a thrilling hour-long walk up the hill under the porticoes, we reached Santuario della Beata Vergine di San Luca, tired but invigorated.
Along with other visitors, we were allowed behind the altar to see St. Luke's painted icon up close (see photos #1 and #2). In 1433 Bologna experienced a very rainy spring that threatened to ruin crops and bring famine to the city. Graziolo Accarisi, a well-respected lawyer and a member of the city council, suggested that the icon of St. Luke's Madonna and Child be brought down to the city where Bologna's faithful could pray to the Virgin to stop the rain. It worked! Every year since a procession has been held in early May, bringing the icon from its sanctuary; it is paraded throughout the city and rests in the Cathedral of St. Peter for a week.
The dome (see photo #3) is decorated with frescoes by the late-Baroque Bolognese artist Vittorio Bigari (1692–1776), whose work can also be seen at the Basilica of San Domenico in Bologna.

Santuario della Beata Vergine di San Luca, Part I
"Up to this church, from the gate of Bologna, is a portico or covered way, about three miles long, very elegant in workmanship, twelve feet broad and fifteen high. It took about sixty years to complete, and the cost was immense; but the whole was raised by voluntary contribution. Up this tremendously steep portico we ascended (not much with my will) in the warmest day I have experienced, as the carriage could not be used, and was left at the foot."
— from "Memoir of James Ewing of Strathlever" 1866 by Macintosh Mackay
UP, UP AND AWAY The church that Mr. Ewing is hiking towards is the Santuario della Beata Vergine di San Luca. It sits on Colle della Guardia southwest of town.
The Santuario della Beata Vergine di San Luca was built in the Greek-cross plan between 1723 and 1757 by Bologna's native son, Carlo Francesco Dotti (1670-1759). Inside you can see a Byzantine icon, traditionally attributed to the evangelist St. Luke. Flanking the entrance door are two marble sculptures; on the left is St. Luke holding a version of his painting (see photo #3); on the right is St. Mark (see photo #4), notable because of the winged lion at his feet. The original church was restored and extended many times over the years.

Holly Cole in Studio on KPLU 3/13/08
- Holly Cole: vocals
- Aaron Davis: piano
- Marc Rogers: bass
- Johnny Johnson: flute, saxophone
Canadian jazz vocalist Holly Cole officially began her first U.S. tour in six years with a sold-out, one-night stand at Dimitriou's Jazz Alley in Seattle. On the afternoon preceding that show, Cole and her band dropped by the KPLU studios for a three-song performance and an interview with KPLU music director Nick Francis. If Cole was thinking of her visit to our studio as a warm-up for that evening's tour kickoff, it was totally unnecessary; she and her trio were more than ready to get down to the business of making great music.
Cole began the session with "The House Is Haunted by the Echo of Your Last Goodbye," the first song on her excellent new self-titled CD. It was a perfect choice. Out of all the fine songs on her latest release, this is the one that we think stands out and most clearly says, "Holly Cole is ready to be elevated above cult status in the U.S." She quickly followed with another treat, Stephen Sondheim's "Losing My Mind," a song she recorded with Wayne Shorter for a Sondheim tribute CD. To cap her performance, she gave us "Larger Than Life," an original composition in which the lightning bolts of Zeus are dismissed as parlor tricks when compared to the fireworks of love.
All in all, it was the kind of performance that Cole's fans have come to expect from her: carefully chosen songs and fresh, surprising arrangements, fueled by one of the most compelling voices in jazz.
Originally recorded March 3, 2008.

OK, thank you for answering.
Like I said, I have tested your add-on for a few weeks with different add-ons and browser crashes. After first install, I had some problems but I think it was my fault because I didn't know how to use your add-on properly. I had only two times Firefox crashes (Aurora). I HAD before installed your add-on very often crashes (especially when Firefox reached 700 MB to 1,5 GB memory usage). I think that your add-on helped to make Firefox more stable?
I will use Nightly Tester Tools. I'll report if I've issues. For now, it works great. 5 stars for your add-on.

Hello. As you are mentioning a lot of crashes I'm highly interested in those reports. Would you mind to let me know about those urls? You can find them when opening about:crashes in Firefox. Please send me a couple of those to hskupin(at)mozilla(dot)com. Thanks.

I guess it would have to work differently to do what I want Puntuado con 3 de 5 estrellas
I was hoping that NTT's title-bar editor would do what I want, but it doesn't, so probably the only feature I'll really use (not actually being a nightly tester, just beta) is the "force compatibility" tool, in order not to keep losing add-ons every time I update to a new Beta release number. The other tools do look useful for people who really are living on the Firefox edge.
What I was *hoping* the title-bar editor might do was allow me to customize the title *individually* for each of my open windows. I've lately been trying to use separate windows to group related tabs (e.g. a "social" window for Facebook and LinkedIn tabs, a "work" window for things I'm currently researching for work, etc.). I often have several hundred tabs open (lots of "I'll get back to that"s that never happen...) but it's hard to keep track of what's where when each window just shows the title of the current web page. And no, Firefox's own "tab groups" feature won't do what I want, and I hate, hate, hate that interface. (Clustering *actual* tabs or expand/collapse *actual* tabs would be the way to go -- not a gazillion thumbnails.)
UPDATE -- 25 Feb 2013: Loss of 1 star, from 4 to 3.
I just had my first occasion to try using the "Force Addon Compatibility" feature, when FF updated itself from Version 19 to Version 20 Beta 1. (Does anyone else find it absurd that we're up to "FF 20" with essentially the same product as FF 7? Or is it FF 5?) As a result of the update, my "Tab Utillities" add-on was disabled as being "incompatible".
I saw a warning about the Tab Utilities add-on before I actually applied the update, so I turned on "Force Compatibility" before updating FF. No joy -- the add-on was still disabled after the update. So I turned off the Force Compatibility, then turned it back on and accepted a re-start. Still no joy, the add-on continues to show as disabled. So, as far as I can tell, the Force Addon Compatibility feature doesn't work. Since that's the only feature I was expecting to use, I've deducted one star.
What does work (sort of), in place of NTT, is the trick COKEDUDE posted below, updated. I added
extensions.checkCompatibility.20.0 FALSE
to about:config. Now I can fiddle with Tab Utilities options, but it doesn't seem like Tab Utilities actually WORKS even with that new Config line.
(As a feature request for more serious testers than me, I wonder if forced compatibility could be managed on a per-add-on basis. Someone doing serious testing might want to activate just one "incompatible" add-on at a time to see if they actually work.)
Indeed, the title customization is, at the moment, common to all windows. Your request looks interesting, though. Maybe you could open a new "enhancement" issue at https://github.com/mozilla/nightlytt/issues/new

LOL. The "stable" version of this addon is, and will remain, here at addons.mozilla.org. Now that Firefox, Thunderbird and SeaMonkey are equipped with a "default to compatible" feature, it is expected that NTT won't become "outdated" by any foreseeable future version of theirs, though new NTT versions will of course be uploaded to fix bugs and/or add features.
The development source is on github (see the link on the "addon home page"), you will normally not need it unless you want to add features and/or help fixing bugs.
Until the next version... Puntuado con 5 de 5 estrellas
To force addon compatibility in Firefox 8 you must have to:
Type about:config in Firefox addressbar and press Enter. It'll confirm, click on "I'll be careful, I promise!" button. Now right-click and select "New", then "Boolean". Give it name:
And set it's value to false. That's all.
This is the same thing that NTT does with your browser, but it always changes the version number automatically to match the browser's version. That's why I gave it five stars.

AbstractThe development of robust membrane oxygenation systems for microgravity and hypogravity compatible dissolution of oxygen into flowing water streams such as Biological Water Processor feed or recycle is proposed. Multiphase gas-liquid flow through catalyst particles or cells immobilized on solid supports can result in flow channeling and in extreme cases, gas block (i.e., the requirement for extremely high pressures to achieve fluid flow). The potential for multiphase flow related problems is significantly increased under low gravity conditions due to the weakening (or absence) of buoyant forces which facilitate phase separations based upon density differences. These problems can be easily avoided by first dissolving the gas phase in the liquid phase and then establishing single phase flow through the system. We propose the development of organic polymer/ceramic membrane based oxygenation systems, compatible with operation at either elevated or ambient temperatures, and able to saturate an influent aqueous stream flowing at rates corresponding to the requirements of ISS or ground based ALS testing in the BioPlex facility. Phase I will demonstrate feasibility; Phase II will result in the design, fabrication, and thorough testing of a complete system to be delivered to NASA at the end of the project.

Released: Nov 01st, 1985
Running Time: 86
Director: Steve Scott
Company: Masterpiece Home video
Cast: Herschel Savage, Amber Lynn, Ginger Lynn, Harry Reems, Cara Lott, Tom Byron
Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: Film
Trashy Lady leads adult films into a new era, hopefully one that other studios will quickly join. Its level of quality is so high, relative to other X-rated films, it is difficult to critique it within their context. It's not that other sex films haven't invested in high technical quality or in interesting plots. They have. But almost all of them have become too arty or are self-consciously embarrassed at being of the adult genre.
I applaud Trashy Lady because it doesn't try to become a mass-audience film. In fact, it seems proud that it's "great-great granddaddy" was a smoker, yet this is state-of-the art. Now that there is more of a market for adult films, meaning more profit to be made, hopefully more money can be put back into improving the overall quality, as Trashy Lady does. In fact, I hope that from now on, this is the minimum a studio would have to produce in order to compete.
Trashy Lady is a gangster film. However, as virtually all gangster films focus on the violent side of the gangster business, this one is creative in that it deals with the sexual side – no violence. Dutch Segal's (Harry Reems) girlfriend walks out on him after an argument. Dutch then gets the hots for his club's cigarette girl. She wants to be his girl but he discovers that she is too classy for him ("What would people think.") So, in a reverse Pygmalion or My Fair Lady, he asks the girlfriend of another mob boss to teach his new girl to chew gun, talk dirty, give blow-jobs and in general be "a trashy lady just like you." "I'll take that as a compliment," she says. Ginger Lynn turns in a nice performance as Harry's girl.
From the beginning of this movie, one is truck by the high caliber of the music, the costumes, the sets, the old cars and the filming techniques. The actors are all good-looking. But most importantly, while they are not Sir Lawrence Olivier, they really act. And many of them, led by Harry Reems with his mob boss accent, add a subtle sense of humor, really making this movie entertaining.
Sexually, Trashy Lady sizzles. There are all types of combinations, including two girl/one guy and two guy/one girl. The director has the confidence to cut an oral sex or lesbian scene short, so it doesn't slow down the pace. There are more sex scenes in Trashy Lady than in most X-rated movies, and the performers are exciting to watch. This is one AAAA movie!

The temperate solitary coral Balanophyllia elegans Verrill, 1864 was collected monthly between January 1977 and August 1978 off the California coast. B. elegans reproduces only sexually, is gonochoric, and broods its embryos. Males are ripe only in late summer, but oocytes and embryos (ca. 40 per female) are found throughout the year. The presence of oocytes and embryos throughout the year may be the result of very long, overlapping oocyte growth and embryonic developmental times. Large, crawling, benthic planulas are released mainly in the winter. The skeletal design of the corallum of B. elegans accommodates the brooding of unusually large embryos; this design may be indicative of brooding large embryos in other species of corals, particularly dendrophyllids.

First, let me tell you, I am not really interested in making my own rpg engine (at least not in the near future, hehe), but I do feel like I want to understand the internals of how a rpg engine works. Why? Well, because I like to read about programming and design, It keeps me motivated and excited, and because I know I will learn a lot, for, even when I have been programming for some years now, I never stop considering myself an ignorant... there are simply SO many things involving a game engine (specially rpg ones, like branching storylines, and items and economics!) I'm eager to know.
I've been searching (and thus, finding) lots of info online, but it is never focused in what I'm interested (most of it talks about the mathematics and AI algorithms implementation, which I know quite well), which is the design of overall structure, patterns, scripting engine, decision engine... damn, so many things I can't even imagine, since I've never done any game programming.
I hope you know have an idea of how I feel, and how I want to learn for the sake of learning, and why would I want you to tell me if you know if there exist books touching the topics that interest me the most.

Using Zend Client Library getting Unable to Connect to ssl://www.google.com:443 error message (self.AppEngine)
submitted 2 years ago by myros
Hi there
I hope someone can help me with this error message i'm getting. I'm creating a PHP web app to connect to google spreadsheets. For this i'm using the zend client libraries.
The code works well on my local machine but when i deploy the code to App engine i get the following exception:
Zend_Gdata_App_HttpException' with message 'Unable to Connect to ssl://www.google.com:443. Error #-1: Unknown error 4294967295'
I get the exception when trying to connect:
$this->service = Zend_Gdata_Spreadsheets::AUTH_SERVICE_NAME;
$client = Zend_Gdata_ClientLogin::getHttpClient($this->user, $this->pass, $this->service);
$this->service = new Zend_Gdata_Spreadsheets($client);

I think u need to connect to "spreadsheets.google.com"
[–]myros[S] 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Thanks for your reply.
I had tried both approaches OAuth tokens and directly with user name password but neither approach worked.
I think it is not possible to connect to google's servers from GAE using PHP as per:
Under limitations it says:
"Private, broadcast, multicast, and Google IP ranges (except those whitelisted below), are blocked"
I gave up on GAE and used a regular hosting service

Abortion-Related Election Ads Spiked In October
Campaign ads on abortion, contraception, and Planned Parenthood have spiked in the last month, from abortion-related ads running in just 14 races in September to more than 1,500 mentions of abortion in 50 races in the last week, according to data from Kantar Media CMAG. Eleven new ads on abortion aired in House and governor races on Wednesday alone.
The chart from CMAG shows how much ads containing mentions of abortion, contraception, and Planned Parenthood have proliferated recently:
Independent groups are running a number of ads targeting abortion issues as well. A ThinkProgress analysis of CMAG data found that conservative groups — such as Women Speak Out, Susan B. Anthony's List, CatholicVote.org, and Campaign for American Values — dropped at least $300,000 on anti-abortion ads between October 9 and October 15.
Susan B. Anthony List's new super PAC Women Speak Out ran at least $129,000 worth of misleading ads since October 9 that feature an alleged "abortion survivor" and singles out health care reform. Other ads revive the criticism that the Affordable Care Act's birth control provision violates Americans' religious freedom, even though the law provides accommodations for religious organizations. The Hyde Amendment also significantly limits when federal funds can be used to pay for abortion services, and health care reform maintained the existing restrictions.
According to a recent USA Today/Gallup poll, abortion is the most salient election issue for almost 40 percent of women.

Charence Monique Higgins Miss Jackson State University 2015-2016
Charence Monique Higgins, originally from Madison, Mississippi, is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John and Daphne Higgins. Charence, who is an Honors dual major in Psychology and Theatre, was selected by her peers as the 76th Miss Jackson State University for the 2015-2016 academic year. Charence attended Lee Elementary School in Jackson before her family moved to Madison. For the first grade throughout her high school career she attended Madison County Schools—beginning at Madison Station Elementary School, then attending Madison Middle School, Rosa Scott School, and Madison Central High School where she graduated with a 4.0 GPA and ranked #7 out of 464 students in her graduating class. One of her proudest accomplishments during her grade school tenure is receiving a Perfect Attendance award for all 12 years of school from 1st through 12th grade.
While attending Madison Central High School, she was involved and participated in many organizations including: Reveille Show Choir, Beta Club, Government Club, Thespian Society, Drama Club, MCHS Band, Future Problem Solvers, Mississippi Children's Museum Youth Ambassador Program, Mississippi Youth Legislature, and the Student Government Association. Academically, she was awarded the President's Award for Educational Excellence and the highest average awards in English, Geometry, Spanish, Comprehensive Health, Algebra, and U.S. History. She was also recognized by the National Merit Program as a National Commended Scholar in 2011. Charence was awarded the Top Jag Award for community service and school spirit, the Young Americans' Challenge Award started by the Duke of Edinburgh, The MCHS Award for Academic Achievement, the Rosa Scott Citizenship Award, MCHS Citizenship Award, and inducted into Madison Central High School's Hall of Fame.
Upon graduation, Charence received several honors including being named one of the Top 25 Students Who Will Change the World in a magazine issue published by Portico Magazine. During her tenure at Jackson State University, Charence has been very involved on campus. She entered Tiger World as a Presidential Scholar and W.E.B Du Bois Honors student. She later became involved in the following organizations: MADDRAMA Performance Troupe, JSU Dance Ensemble, Insatiable Modelling Squad, JSU Jazz Ensemble, NAACP, Pre-Alumni Council, Student Government Association, Alpha Lambda Delta Honors Society, JSU Blue Ambassadors. She also spent time as a MARC Scholar and peer tutor. Being a queen on JSU's campus is not new to Higgins as she has previously served as Miss MADDRAMA Performance Troupe, Miss Pre-Alumni Council, Miss Black & Gold for the Delta Phi Chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., and Miss Black & Gold District of Mississippi.She has devoted many hours of her time to community service, both on and off-campus, through each of these prestigious organizations as well as individually.
Charence will continue her legacy of service to her peers through her position as Miss Jackson State University; she plans to help students gain success through No L.I.M.I.T.S. an acronym for No Losing Insight on My Intelligence, Talents, and Service. Its key objectives are increasing academic achievement through alumni mentorship and utilizing resources within the community to improve our educational experience; ensuring that every student has the ability and outlet to display their individual, unique talent through support and utilization of campus organizations and community outlets; and service to our university, each other and the Jackson community by reinstatement of the Queen's Campaign and engagement in community service opportunities campus-wide.
Charence's future plans include entering graduate school to receive an MFA in Expressive/ Creative Therapy and ultimately pursuing her dreams as an actress. She believes that through faith in God and selfless service, all things aspired will be made possible.

Paging Through: Mysteries
My parents are snowbirds (when the snow flies, so do they) so they often read this column after it has run. They've recently returned to their Brookfield nest, and my mom wasted no time influencing this month's recommendations. After finishing Susan Elia MacNeal's "His Majesty's Hope" (Bantam, $15), the third in an engrossing WWII series, my mom said, "You need to recommend this and the author needs to write faster."
Maggie Hope, the series hero, has dreamed of becoming a spy ever since she was a "typist to Prime Minister Winston Churchill" and then a "maths tutor to the Princess Elizabeth" at Windsor. As the Nazis tighten their grip across Europe, Maggie gets her chance. Thanks to her secret training (including lessons from a "Glaswegian safecracker"), her keen intelligence with codes, and her "big stones" (as the Brits say), Maggie is recruited to an elite group of spies to infiltrate the offices of the Nazi hierarchy. »Read Full Article

I purchased the Gravity Forms plugin just so I could use this free directory plugin. The gravity forms plugin works great but when I install the Add-Ons plugin for the directory I get a javascript error that says "Ajax error while setting post template" whenever I try to edit or save my form. So essentially it renders the gravity forms plugin useless and the directory plugin. I've tried downloading and reinstalling both of the plugins with the same result. So there is some kind of conflict here.
Any ideas on a fix?

Formscan By Alan Magee - A small field but none the less an interesting contest to get the Thyestes meeting underway, although it is very hard to ignore the claims of the Willie Mullins yard who hold a very strong line on what is required in the juvenile hurdle division. The champion trainer has the likes of impressive winners Diakali and Blood Cotil this season, and another of his four-year-old's Fatcatinthehat held a clear advantage when falling at the last to let Hartside gain a fortunate victory at Punchestown on New Year's Eve. DOGARA himself made a pleasing start in a modest enough event at the Limerick Christmas meeting, and is likely to improve again with that experience under his belt. Dalasiri stepped up considerably from his Leopardstown debut to score with some style at Cork. The Sabrina Harty-trained grey caused a major stir in the ring that day, and interestingly gave beat Spot The Pro (third) a bigger beating than the selection did at Limerick.

The academy only shows what unit type it upgrades to for existing units already in the army, and only if you've already unlocked the correct race and level upgrades. Can anyone provide or link to a diagram or table (or the data in any other form, really) showing what upgrades to what?

John Minchillo, Associated Press
NEW YORK — The Republican Party and the tea party seemed to be a natural political pairing. But what may have seemed like another politically beneficial alliance — Democrats and Occupy Wall Street — hasn't happened.
Although both Democrats and the Occupy protesters have similar views on economic inequality and corporate responsibility, each holds the other at arm's length. There's little benefit to Democrats in opening their arms wide to a scruffy group that has erupted in violence, defied police and shown evidence of drug use while camping in public parks across the country — much as the prospect of such a pairing delights Republicans.
Many protesters, in turn, are contemptuous of Democrats, arguing that both political parties are equally beholden to corporate interests and responsible for enacting policies that have hurt the middle class.
Both sides may be missing an opportunity. Polling shows the public supports the message of the Occupy Wall Street movement even if people have reservations about the encampments themselves. And political observers say Democrats may be missing a chance to reinvigorate their base.
"It's injecting energy and life into progressive ideas and values, and it's showing some weak-kneed Democrats they should be more aggressive on those issues," Steve Rosenthal, a Democratic strategist and longtime labor leader, said. "I don't think it will translate into boots on the ground or a clear organization for the 2012 election, but it will definitely help shape the debate."
Occupy Wall Street hasn't been easy for risk-averse elected officials to endorse.
The movement has lacked leadership and a clear focus, and illegal behavior has turned off some politicians. Mayors, citing concerns over sanitation and public safety, have begun to crack down on the encampments, and police in riot gear have cleared protesters from several cities, including New York, Portland, Ore., and Oakland, Calif.
Republicans have largely dismissed the Occupy Wall Street as a band of anti-capitalist ruffians, while trying to goad Democrats into embracing the movement or answering for its excesses.
GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney has called the movement dangerous class warfare, while Michele Bachmann called the protesters "ignorant" and "disrespectful."
So far, Democrats have tried to have it both ways — embracing the movement's economic concerns while steering clear of its rougher edges.
"I think people feel separated from their government," President Barack Obama told ABC News. "They feel that their institutions are not looking out for them." The president has said his jobs plan, which would boost taxes on high earners, is a way to address some of the protesters' concerns.
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has gone a step further, posting a petition, "100,000 Strong Standing With Occupy Wall Street," that blames Republican policies for the nation's economic discontent.
But many Occupy Wall Street activists say they are disillusioned with Obama and have no interest in helping him or other Democratic candidates.
"The Occupy movement is rooted in the idea that the political system is broken to such a degree that we can no longer work through the Republican or Democratic parties," Tim Franzen, a spokesman for Occupy Atlanta, said.
"This is not about politics. This is about people," said Marsha Spencer, an Occupy volunteer in New York. "We've lost our government. It's not by the people, for the people anymore. We need to get it back, and we don't need a political party to do that."
Such talk has frustrated some Democratic leaders, who say engaging electoral politics would make the Occupy Wall Street movement more effective.

Commercial Integrator is all about troubleshooting. A client has a problem or a need, and it's the integrator's job to come up with a plan to fill that need. And that's only half the battle.
Once onsite, any number of problems can arise that require quick thinking and ingenuity to bridge the gap between the best-laid plans and the real world problems that can lead those plans astray. Time in and time out, installers find a way to make it to not only make it work, but to make it exceed customer expectations.
Once again it's our pleasure to showcase some of the best commercial installations carried out throughout the country in 2012. Throughout the year we get in-depth looks at some of the creative and innovative solutions that installers develop for their clients, and for our second annual installation of the Integration Awards we were thrilled to get nearly 100 entries this year across 11 vertical markets: corporate, government, health care, higher education, hotels, house of worship, K-12 education, restaurants/bars/clubs, retail, large venues and casinos.
The editors and writers of Commercial Integrator teamed up with the editorial staff of our six TechDecisions sister websites to pore over the entries. Just like last year, some projects immediately rose to the top of our consideration, while others merited spirited debate. Regardless of which projects one, one constant element shown through in each piece of work: the tenacity and originality of thought and design that each firm brought to bear on its work, the client being the ultimate winner in the end.
We were pleased to announce the winners at a formal unveiling this month at InfoComm 2013 in Orlando, Fla. and present them, as well as the honorable mentions, on CommercialIntegrator.com.

ManoloD.Dec 24, 2001Arde! is the ost of last year. If december is cold, arde is cool. And cold.
Arde is a low-key affair, relying on ethereal and hypnotic arrangements and slow tempos. However, there is a distinct pop sense to the album...
SpinLacking the bluster and/or baritone to pull off the stumbly, ESL lyrics, Migala's drowsy fables wander aimlessly. [Sep 2001, p.164]
The beauty in all this melancholy is that, interspersed among the reverberating guitars and mournful keyboards, you'll find an assortment of cheerful instruments, such as the accordion, that help to create an underlying tone of optimism.

FS: Matthias Dammann Single Top Guitar For Sale #1 1986
This outstanding classical guitar is one of Matthias Dammann's early models before he started building his double top guitars. This one has a solid cedar top and wenge back and sides. Her serial number is #1 1986, and there are no damages or cracks. Overall condition is excellent with minor playing marks. This is a 65cm scale guitar. Nothing has been altered or done about this guitar, and it will travel worldwide in a sturdy and reliable Mark Leaf case. Shipping outside Germany (where I am located) will be very costly due to the dimensions and the weight of the case. I guess it could easily be 600 USD or more.
I found a similar Dammann in the net which really looks like the guitar I'm selling, so I'm posting a link to have an idea what it looks like. THIS IS NOT THE GUITAR I'M OFFERING.
I'm asking 25000 USD plus shipping, but I would be ready to trade for a Daniel Friederich Concert model with a spruce top in Europe after playing it because I love spruce tops and keep coming back to them.

Greg Byers 2007 lattice model Cedar/Madagascar graf tuners.
Guitar Location: San Diego, CA, USA
Description: Acoustic Guitar for sale - Greg Byers 2007 / Madagascar/Cedar
Classical Guitar - 2007 GREG BYERS Lattice braced
* Scale: 650mm
* Origin: USA
* Top: Cedar
* Back and side: Madagascar
* Tuners: Graf
* Case Yes
* Number: 207 date 11/5/2007
Instrument Description: 2007 Greg Byers concert classical guitar.
The top is cedar with sides and back of Madagascar rosewood.
Tuning machines are by Graf Tuners of Canada.
The guitar is finished in French polished shellac.
The scale length is 650mm with a nut width of 52mm. This guitar is made in the USA.
Instrument Condition:This guitar is in very good condition with no cracks or structural damage evident. There are a few areas of light dings and scratches on the top, mainly below the soundhole and behind the bridge, but this is considered normal playing wear and does not devalue the guitar considerably.
The back has no cracks or repairs, but does have one relatively large area in the center, upper bout of the guitar, about 6" in diameter, where the finish is severely worn. This is due to the guitar being played many hours and the instrument coming in contact with the player in this area. It does not change the sound one bit, but devalues the guitar due to its appearance. The rest of the finish on the back is in fine condition with a few very fine, light scratches.
All finish wear on the top and back can be touched up relatively easily and made to look "like new" for under $600.
This guitar is an excellent example of Greg Byers "newer generation" of guitars which stray just a bit from traditional with his use of lattice bracing and an elevated fingerboard. Greg is considered one of the most popular and top American luthiers at this time, and he has made about 300 classical guitars to date. His waiting list extends for over a year.
The sound of this particular instrument is very well balanced with excellent separation of voices. The response is very fast and the tone is quite beautiful and open. The instrument is quite powerful and would suit any recording or concertizing guitarist quite well.
please contact me
the guitar is in San Diego area.

Sanusi Says Nigeria Won't Drain Reserves to Shield Naira
Nigerian Central Bank Governor Lamido Sanusi made the following comments after a meeting of the bank's monetary policy committee in Abuja today.
On increasing the Cash Requirement Ratio:
"On the CRR, the reason for increasing it was not primarily about redirecting lending. It is primarily about contribution to stability.
"At the moment, if you look back what happened a few weeks ago we had a lot of pressure on the exchange rate and the only reason we were able to keep the naira stable was because we tightened money and also increased the amount of supply from the reserves of dollars.
"We cannot continue to run down reserves in order to have a stable exchange rate. And in the event of the slowdown in Europe becoming very serious and hitting oil prices, what will happen is that we're going to have so much pressure on reserves, we may have to rapidly depreciate the local currency and that will feed into an existing inflationary loop.
"So the primary concern is our price stability concern, which is the primary mandate of the central bank and if we have very high inflationary expectations, we should take measures to address structural excess liquidity in the banking system and that is what the CRR increase is supposed to achieve."
On rising inflationary pressure:
"You have a slowdown in growth, at the same time you've got very strong inflationary pressure. The central bank has to continue to focus on price stability and while controlling inflation is not everything, certainly if we lose stability then there will be nothing.
"We already are dealing with structural problems; we're already dealing with issues on the fiscal side.
"We do not want to compound this matter by having a high rate of inflation.
"Now one of the major concerns we have is that if you look at what is happening in Europe, in the United States, in China, in India and Brazil, you cannot rule out the possibility of a decline in the price of oil.
"And if you have an external shock to reserves and a major depreciation of the currency, that is going to feed into an already existing inflationary pile-up and that will be unacceptable.
"So it is actually better at this moment to tighten money supply, tighten liquidity in the banking system, try to build up those buffers and to prepare ourselves for the fall that will definitely come."
