Alderson's Skill Set A Good Fit for Mets
When Kevin Towers learned that he would be working under Sandy Alderson, he considered changing jobs, so great and wide a shadow did he believe his new boss cast.
Mr. Towers had been hired as the San Diego Padres' general manager in 1995, and for two years thereafter, as the Oakland A's GM, Mr. Alderson had been one of Mr. Towers's peers. In fact, by then Mr. Alderson had become one of baseball's most respected minds, building the A's into a juggernaut in the late 1980s and pioneering the use of statistical analysis in player-personnel evaluation.
He then became the Padres' chief executive officer in 2005, and Mr. Towers was concerned that working for someone who had been such a successful general manager would lead inevitably to conflict and second-guessing.
The Arizona Diamondbacks' GM position was vacant at the time; Mr. Towers pursued it, but once he found he could work with and for Mr. Alderson, he ended up staying in San Diego.
"I trusted Sandy, and in this game, that's huge," said Mr. Towers, who remained the Padres' GM until last year and whom the Diamondbacks hired as their GM last month. "You always knew where you stood with Sandy, [and he] was always one of those guys who wasn't afraid to think outside the box."
Those two qualities—directness and innovation—seem to define best the baseball career of Mr. Alderson, who on Tuesday will interview with the Mets for the second time for their general manager's job. Mr. Alderson and former Arizona GM Josh Byrnes, Mr. Towers' predecessor, are the two finalists for the position, but the 62-year-old Mr. Alderson—an alumnus of Dartmouth College and Harvard Law School, a former Marine, and the former executive vice-president of baseball operations for Major League Baseball—would appear the favorite.
Mr. Alderson's background and insights from people who have worked with him and who are familiar with the Mets' condition indicate he would lend the franchise a measure of credibility and independence of thought. To an organization with a reputation for possessing meddlesome ownership and making short-sighted and expensive personnel moves, such attributes would seem particularly desirable.
"It's absolutely critical you have the right people in place at the top," said Gerry Hunsicker, a senior vice-president with the Tampa Bay Rays and a former executive with the Mets. "There's got to be a clear game plan in place where everybody understands their role....Without that, nothing else matters."
That the commissioner's office would allow Mr. Alderson to pursue the Mets' GM position—he most recently had worked on behalf of MLB to clean up corruption in the sport's feeder systems in the Dominican Republic—suggests that Bud Selig has blessed this potential arrangement and that Mr. Alderson is itching to be a GM again.
"I almost think this is better for him because it's a hands-on, manipulative, do-things kind of a deal," said Harvey Dorfman, whose emergence as a prominent sports psychology counselor traces to an association with Mr. Alderson. "So much political stuff is in the commissioner's office."
Mr. Dorfman cited the start of his relationship with Mr. Alderson as an example of Mr. Alderson's forward thinking. The A's hired Mr. Dorfman at the suggestion of Karl Kuehl, who at the time worked under Mr. Alderson in Oakland's player-development department and who was writing a book with Mr. Dorfman called "A Guide to Peak Performance."
In the mid-1980s, the notion that a major-league club would put a mental-health guru on its payroll was a radical departure from the sport's culture, Mr. Dorfman said. No other general manager would have done it.
"But in meetings where there were decisions to be made, the first consideration was never, 'What will people think?'" Mr. Dorfman said by phone. "It was, 'What is the right thing to do?'"
Under Mr. Alderson, the A's won four American League Western Division championships and a World Series from 1988 to 1992, and the value he placed on what once had been an obscure statistic, on-base percentage, helped to inspire the game's "Moneyball" revolution years later.
As the Padres' CEO, Mr. Alderson was a driving force behind the franchise's construction of a training facility in the Dominican Republic for the organization's Latin American players and prospects, and he became a key adviser to Mr. Towers.
In 2006, Mr. Towers recalled, he was close to trading Scott Linebrink, the Padres' setup man and a popular player on the club, even though the team was in first place. "It was a good baseball deal," Mr. Towers said, but Mr. Alderson urged him to consider how the trade would be received among Mr. Linebrink's teammates. Mr. Towers elected not to make the deal, and the Padres went on to win the National League West.
"He was all about making sure you think through everything before making the decision," Mr. Towers said. "Sandy is a smart guy. He'll have a network of people he'll bring in who will make that organization better if he gets the job."

To the Editor.—Two very interesting articles by Dunlap and Harvey appeared in the September 1967 issue of the American Journal of Diseases of Children (114: 229-252) on the carrier state and types of specific immunity in streptococcal diseases and clinical dilemma in the use of penicillin in streptococcal illness. We find the epidemiology of the subjects covered quite interesting. The first study seems to confirm what we have long suspected to be the explanation of certain facts: Any infecting organism has high initial morbidity and mortality in a previously unexposed population. After the initial epidemic, the population as a whole seems to develop a relative mass immunity, and morbidity and mortality decline. The survivors of the initial epidemic are more or less resistant, and therefore, more or less protected, against sequelae such as rheumatic fever and glomerulonephritis.
It is interesting to speculate on why the previously unexposed infected child

i meant 'cripple' in a light hearted kind of way, but still IMO the nofollow is a 3rd party thing so it should need a plugin to ENABLE, not DISABLE it. But hey, what do I matter?
i meant 'cripple' in a light hearted kind of way, but still IMO the nofollow is a 3rd party thing so it should need a plugin to ENABLE, not DISABLE it. But hey, what do I matter?
So.. to summarise:
nofollow will not stop spam..
nofollow will not stop the effect of spam.
nofollow will reduce the effect of spam.
nofollow will not effect links in yours posts (unless you add it in by hand).
nofollow will effect commenters.
That last point appears to be the point of contention. Either you are, like me, of the opinion that if you post just for the PR benifits then you are almost as bad as spammers.. or you are of the opinion that this is somehow breaking the internet.
Note btw that nofollow only effects pagerank - so the link is still spidered (at least thats what google has said). So if there is good content on there - then google will find it.
Honestly? I can't see the problem with adding this in. I think its a good thing that won't have much impact on anyone legitimate. As spammers have said - there is always TrackBack spam - and thats a whole other kettle of fish.
In the end - its in 1.5, and there is no reason to take it out. If you want to take it off then fine, but there will be a dozen plugins to do that when 1.5 is released (or before!).
So the rest of this is jsut noise.
Oh and as for the point about "well there should be a plugin to ENABLE it" that is missing the point about adding default support - so all the regular users that don't know, or care, what a plugin is don't contribute to the problem.
Unprotected users provide 99% of virus, email spam, and comment spam (open proxies).. why enable blogs to be used as a tool for boosting pagerank? With it on and built in as a default - you remove this problem.
Note btw that nofollow only effects pagerank - so the link is still spidered (at least thats what google has said). So if there is good content on there - then google will find it.
Ok, this has placated me somewhat I must admit, as Im not too bothered about the page rank issue.
I still feel though that if anything is a 3rd party issue then this is. And if feature bloat is a perceived problem then surely this is just adding to that muddle.
For me its more the point of who has control over what and how I publish something, me or the WP dev team and in this case I think it should default to the 'plain vanilla' option of off.
But again, I shall just use a plugin to disable it (did I read that the plugin will come with WP btw?)
You did, but that's just speculation at the moment :) Based on the noise you people have been making, it's more likely than not.
Either way, there's a demand for a plugin to switch off the behavior, so inevitably somebody will supply it. In the meantime, if you don't want no-follow implemented in the core, continue to use the current official release 1.2.2, which is unpolluted by any evil Google-sponsored measures.
Well, Im on 1.5 so no way I can go back to 1.2. Ill just either hold out till a plugin is available (which really SHOULD be bundled with WP) or if I HAVE to update I guess I shall have to search through the files to find out how to disable it.
--OK, it took me a while in writing this posting, so there may have been other posts in the meantime.--
Why does it HAVE to be a plugin, why not a just a global on/off box in the admin section. Which I think btw should default to 'off', I dont think the developers should make assumptions like this on behalf of the users. -- somefool
You haven't actualy been following this have you? rboren said already - option bloat.
THANK YOU. That is precisely the point that I have been trying to make. It's good to see that someone's got it. -- Anon
Add two to that list, I got it too. What isn't clear is if it affects the links in the comment ONLY, or if it also affects the poster's URL (which typically links back to their site.) If some one IN THE KNOW could shed some light on that aspect, that would be great.
I dont think the developers should make assumptions like this on behalf of the users. -- somefool
Given the history of the software, and the history of the forums, and the posts of times past, I think you *can* assume that most people do want it on. Whether they admit it or not, they'd rather be protected. You statement assumes that people don't want it on. I think the converse is true as well: you can't assume people will want it off. Corrorlary: Just because some vocal people on these forums seem to indicate that they would rather it be off doesn't make that decision right. Of the hundreds of installs of WP out there, only a dozen or so of us are here debating the issue.
My personal two cents: While a noble effort, no-follow is not going to impact spam efforts. Here's my theory. Let's take my blog. It's about writting & me. I get decent return on searches for writting sites. Now, along comes Joe Spammer, and he hits my site and leaves a comment about writting a book on gambling (because he's good enough to customize his spam -- it happens I get it from time to time), which of course has a link to his Texas Hold'Em site. OK, now, I have the no-follow turned on. When Google comes to rifle through my content, what do you think happens? For starters, the link doesn't get followed, as per the tag. OK, cool.... but the CONTENT has still been catalogued. To include the comment spam. His link will still come through, only now it will be through my site. The spammer still gets what he wants.
All that said, I have read through all of the posts in this thread (well the ones that were here when I started this post) and have come to the following conclusion: I've changed my mind. I came into this with the attitude that it should not have been implemented, and that there should be an option to turn it on off in the admin. Now, I think it SHOULD be implemented and turned ON by default, and yes, require a PLUGIN to turn it off. After all, why not? It's the same as any spam fighting tool out there. WP comes with some basic anti-spam built-in, but there are some talented people who have created all kinds of plugins that go far beyond the basics. Why should this be any different? We've got all kinds of plugins that manipulate the basics of WP. The devs needed to make a decision, and it was made, now it's up to us to figure how to change it SHOULD WE DECIDE TO. This is no different from the people who ask that all links open in a new window. It takes a plugin to do that. There's no option in WP to control that, nor should there be.
I agree with Ryan (did I just say that outloud?) that one of the tenemants fo WP is the limitedness of options. I've seen other pub systems and they have so many options and settings comming out the wahzoo that it makes my head explode. It's nice to come back to WP where life is simpler.
Know what would be cool about this? Someone comes up with a plugin that will add no-follow to links to sites "unknown" based on a whitelist (or a blacklist) so that legit sites can get their prescious linking bene from the Google monster, while "penalizing" spam.
Im happy to admit that I may come round to the idea that nofollow is a good idea but currently Ill just leave it off.
And I think youre right that it is the same as any spam fighting plugin out there - it is up to the user to decide whether or not to implement it. Imagine if WP forced captchas in the comment form by default!
Can some one point me to this easy-to-install plugin? Or is the "disable-nofollow-On" plugin VaporWare?
Vaporware plugins for an unreleased, beta product? Jeez...
Yes: good luck finding someone willing to spend time coding a plugin to turn off a feature that isn't even in the current release. When 1.5 is out of beta I'm sure your demands will be met, but switching to beta software and then demanding plugins exclusively for it just takes the biscuit.
I've just moderated a comment to my blog which contained a link to a page about Richard Dimbleby, which someone thought I might find interesting because I expressed an admiration for his son David in my post.
I think that link, and the homepage of the helpful commenter, deserves a drop of google-juice.
I understand why the nofollow tag is added to links in comments by default, but I resent not being able to turn it off without a plugin. Is one available yet?
> page rank
It's a common misconception that PageRank equates to how "how a page ranks"; it's named after its creator, Google founder Larry Page (in effect, LarryRank). There are other factors to do with links that also have something to do with how a page ranks. Neither Yahoo nor MSN use PageRank. All use scores of other factors in ranking pages.
> Darkcryst said:
> so the link is still spidered (at least thats what google has said)
It's best not to base decisions on what is repeated in forums but rather to go to the source. So where did Google say this?
In and of itself, nofollow was conceived as a metatag attribute that instructed spiders not to follow the links on a page; so now you are saying that Google says that applying nofollow to a link will encourage their spider to follow the link? That would be contrary to the spec, but let's see what Google (and Yahoo, MSN, Teoma, et al.) say on the subject.
Frankly, I don't care whether people do or do not use nofollow. I was concerned that people really ought to understand all the issues, starting with the premise that nofollow would stop comment spam, which it cannot do. Why not simply remove comment spam, or block comments from being posted without your permission? That would be the responsible thing to do.
But as for using nofollow? Several people here seem to want to use it. So go for it.
I'm using WP 1.2.2. How do I add 'no follow' to comments? It doesn't appear to be included in this release. I tried to grep through the code for 'Comment by'...I'm pretty confused that I can't find it...
Please, read the entire thread before posting. If you would have, you would have found that nofollow will be officially added into the upcoming v1.5 release (not v1.2.2, which was released almost two months before the announcement of nofollow). And, please search before posting. A search for "nofollow 1.2.2" would have returned several useful results. Chief amongst those would be a thread entitled "Nofollow Plugin for WordPress 1.2": http://wordpress.org/support/topic.php?id=21187
Now, here are the plugins for v1.2.x, please search next time.
Thanks, but I didn't want a plugin; not if I can just edit one line of code. I was just having trouble finding that line of code. I've since found it though, line 127 of template-functions-comment.php file.
I must be using a different version than you - I found the code to be altered, in my version (1.5 Gamma 03/02/05), to be in comment-functions.php on line 174.
And checking 1.5 Gamma 08/02/05, I found it on line 173 of the same file.
Simply change rel='external nofollow' to rel='external' if you don't want nofollow on your commenters links.
In my case, I'm happy to have nofollow off as I am very vigilant about spam (I custom write my .htaccess file and have Spam Karma installed so no spam is ever published on my site).
And I'm not sure I trust Google and how they are implementing the nofollow tag.
Hope this helps,
<Conspiracy theory>
I note that Google have overhauled Blogger's commenting system - now it allows non-Blogger account holders to comment leaving a name and uri instead of the previous Anonymous or Blogger account options.
However, Google hasn't included the nofollow tag in it's own Blogging software!
Anyone care to venture a guess on why this might be?

I've been on 7.5 Vicodin for years. It works very well with ibuprophen, especially in the prescription strength. I get 800mg. I have been prescribed all 3 of those to take together, for me it was safe and effective, although, I didn't think soma was very strong. I'm know naproxen is safe like ibuprophen, so I'm sure there wouldn't be a problem, but like that other person said, check it all on the drug interaction guide. Now, that being said, when I've had very acute pain (i.e., I broke 6 ribs and fractured my pelvis once) (another time with wisdom teeth removed) my doc told me to take more than was prescribed on the label. In the 1st instance, two 7.5's every 2-3 hours. And I did! Had to, or I couldn't breathe. And another thing about pain, and any nurse, doctor or pain specialist will tell you this, part of managing pain is how you dose yourself. DO NOT let your meds wear off before you take your next dose.
It takes more meds to get on top of the pain every time you do that. It takes your meds about 45 minutes if not more to start acting. So if the dosing schedule says every 6 hours, and you CAN go 6 hours, take your meds at 5 hours, so that by the time the last dose is wearing off, the new dose is coming on. If you find your pain is coming on closer to the 4 hour mark, take it at 3 or 3.5 hours. If you keep that up, esp. while pain is at it's worst, you will do much better and recover better & faster too. Gradually increase time between doses as you feel a little better. As that works, then you can start reducing dose as well as time between, little by little as you can tolerate it.
Hope this helps.

I want to recreate a dynamically allocated qcow2 image in order to shrink it. Is it sufficient that all unnecessary files have been deleted, or do I also need to fill the space formerly occupied by those files with zeros? In other words, is qemu-img filesystem-aware?
Yes, you do need to zero-fill the filesystem if you want to recover the space used by deleted files. And no, qemu-img isn't fs-aware.
I forgot to do this for one VM image I created today (a minimal Debian Sid image for my openstack cloud at work) and it ended up being almost 900MB, even with "-c" for qcow2 compression.
I recreated it after running "dd if=/dev/zero of=/root/zero ; rm -f /root/zero ; shutdown -h now", and the image size shrunk down to about 335MB. That's a lot less (worthless) data to copy around whenever I start up a new instance.
there were a lot of deleted files, because the VM started out as debian squeeze and was apt-get upgraded to sid.
Personally, I think it works better to clone the disk using Clonezilla or Symantec Ghost. It's a lot quicker than filling up the drive with zeros. Also it avoids the growing the image even more.
I have done this with Ghost and Win guests countless times. It's actually quicker if "used space" is smaller than those to be zeroed. Also you can use

Intrarectal administration
Intrarectal administration (A.K.A. rectal administration, suppository, or by the slang term "plugging") is the administration of drugs by insertion into the rectum (ass). It is an excellent, fairly safe route of administration. Unfortunately, many people are uncomfortable with the procedure, and avoid it (usually those who are insecure about their sexuality). If you're comfortable with it and you don't want to shoot up, this is one of your best options. It's quite simple and much stronger than you would think. Like oral administration, vomiting may occur with higher doses. Start with very low doses, and be careful!
When to go rectal
You should make sure your drug provides bioavailability benefits for intrarectal administration before doing it. Most do; however, there are some exceptions where rectal is only slightly better than oral. Other drugs must pass through the liver with oral administration before reaching their full potential (prodrugs), or are toxic unless taken orally (codeine). Other drugs are simply not water soluble under normal circumstances (DXM) and therefore not active through this route of administration. Know your drug. Ideally, your drug page should cite facts for bioavailability. That failing, ask the appropriate board.
You should also be comfortable with your sexuality. Intrarectal administration does not make you a homosexual; it does, however, represent a mental block that many serious drug users eventually overcome about their bodies in the never ending quest to get exceedingly high.
The rectum is rich in blood vessels which serve to provide the muscles with plenty of oxygen, as well as absorb water in the process of forming a stool. These blood vessels also absorb compounds introduced into the rectum. Administering a drug dissolved in water will generally increase absorption rate. There is also a major blood vessel which travels directly from the rectum to the liver, which can increase the bioavailability of certain drugs by delivering up to one third of a dose to the liver where it can be broken down into active metabolites.
Health risks
Rectal is one of the safest methods of administration if done properly. Note, however, that you can not put just anything into your rectum; unlike your stomach, which is extremely acidic, the rectum will not break down drugs for you. Some compounds are highly caustic, and repeated and frequent introduction of these compounds can cause damage to the rectal tissue. Plug caustic compounds in moderation.
Read these instructions fully and make sure you understand before attempting this procedure.
What you need is an oral syringe. This page previously recommended a turkey baster which is probably the least useful tool for intrarectal administration. You can generally buy an oral syringe at any pharmacy. Oftentimes you can simply ask the pharmacist for one and they will give you one for free. Ideally you want one with a long tip, at least half an inch, and with a capacity of at least 10ml. Pet stores also sell larger ones, with longer tips (1 inch or more in length) and higher capacity (20ml or more). Use whatever syringe you prefer, just be aware that the tip has to pass your external anal sphincter entirely and the solution you plug should not drip out immediately. You can also use a more typical syringe for IV or IM administration by unscrewing the needle from the barrel.
If you need to crush your drugs because they come in tablet form you can purchase a pill grinder at most pharmacies, although mashing it up with a spoon works fine as well.
Make sure you have recently defecated or that your rectum is clear of feces. If there is still stool in your rectum the drugs will simply be absorbed into the stool and you wont get high. You can use your oral syringe to flush your rectum by filling it with 10-20ml of cold water and squirting it up there, then expelling it out into the toilet. This may help dislodge any leftover fecal matter. If you have a bidet, a bidet attachment, or a washlet, you can use that to clear your rectum by relaxing your sphincter and allowing some water up into your rectum, then expelling it. Too much water is bad, however, as it will flush away important intestinal bacteria from further up your intestines.
Take whatever powder you have and you can do one of two things. You can dump the powder in an appropriate amount of hot water (5-20ml) and allow it to dissolve, then draw it up with the syringe. Alternatively, you can remove the plunger from the barrel of the syringe entirely by pulling it all the way out. Holding the tip of the syringe with your finger you can dump the powder into the barrel and then carefully replace the plunger into the syringe, depress it all the way while holding it upward with your finger removed to allow air to pass through the tip, then finally draw up hot water. With this second method you will need to draw up a little air as well and shake your syringe with your finger on the tip in order to agitate the components to get them to form a solution. Once the solution has formed, hold the syringe upright, allow any air bubbles to float to the tip, and depress the plunger to remove the excess air. The first method is recommended for beginners, but the second method saves time if you know what you are doing.
Some people prefer to use a lubricant to allow the tip of the syringe the penetrate the sphincter better. Vaseline works fine in this case, but remember that you pass stools with a much greater diameter than the tip of an oral syringe, your sphincter will be able to accommodate it.
Find a comfortable position in which both of your hands are unrestricted to manipulate the syringe. You may have to stretch your sphincter by pulling the area around it slightly. Lying on your back, side, or stomach works fine, this is all personal preference. Make sure the tip of the syringe has penetrated your sphincter as far as it will go and then slowly and fully depress the plunger of the syringe. You can leave it there for a while or you can clench your sphincter while slowly withdrawing the syringe, it has to come out eventually. When withdrawing the syringe, you should try to angle your pelvis upward to avoid any leakage. You can expect to start feeling the effects of your dose in 5 to 20 minutes of dosing, depending on the drug. Generally, the rate of absorption is comparable to the sublingual and buccal routes of administration, with the benefit of not having to taste your dose.
You make reuse your syringe and it can last for weeks to months until the rubber part of the plunger wears down (if there is a rubber component) or until the barrel has become too abraded by the plunger, or any other reason. Just be sure to keep your syringe clean. Soap and water usually suffices. Isopropyl alcohol can also be used to sterilize each component of your syringe. If there is fecal matter, mucus, or lubricant on your syringe after use it should be washed promptly. While the rectum is very efficient at keeping out harmful bacteria, basic precautions should always be taken.
Another method involves using a vegetable-based capsule (other kinds won't dissolve) as a suppository. Simply put the powder in the capsule and press it into your rectum using your finger. This may take time to dissolve and absorb, but it can be convenient due to it's portability and ease of administration.

'Rock the Kasbah' misses the mark
Rock the Kasbah is a movie with so much potential. It stars Bill Murray, features Zooey Deschanel, Bruce Willis, Kate Hudson, Scott Caan, and Danny McBride. Murray even promoted the movie by showing up at Comic Con for the first time to do a genuinely funny panel and answer fan questions. With all that going for it, it's such a shame the movie misses the mark by a mile.

Missouri Preservation's UnHappy Hour, which announced the 2015 Places in Peril, was the place to be on Friday, July 24. More than 120 people tightly squeezed into the Carriage House at Chatillon DeMenil Mansion, located in St. Louis, Missouri, in order to hear this year's listing.Thank you to everyone who attended the press release reception. Missouri Preservation, along with Missouri's threatened historic resources, greatly appreciates your support.

Instituted as a media campaign in 2000, the program is aimed at calling attention to endangered statewide historic resources threatened by deterioration, lack of maintenance, insufficient funds, imminent demolition and/or inappropriate development. Formerly known as Most Endangered, this year's UnHappy Hour celebrated the renaming of the program as 'Places in Peril'. The re-branding came as a means of highlighting the selected public nominated places because becoming the 'most endangered' was not a contest. Once the historic resource is gone, it's gone forever. By publicizing these places we hope to build support towards each property's eventual preservation.
Thank you to our 2015 UnHappy Hour Sponsors:

Laughing they both got back to work.
When Bill got to the party he was nervous as hell. He was shocked and scared to see, not 7 or 8 ladies but a whole room full of well dressed ladies, some older Jan's age and some much younger like Amy. The really kicker was he noticed 2 of the ladies. The 2 girls from his scuba class were here! Ooh jeeze he thought. Well at least he had the mask, he wouldn't talk, and he would be okay. Relax he told himself. He had been fantasizing about this for the past 2 months. Don't chicken out now he thought.

Nothing has come easily this season for the Arizona Wildcats, so they sent their five seniors out in their regular-season home finale on a fitting note today.
The Wildcats hung on for a 65-63 win over UCLA at McKale Center with a late 10-2 run, despite shooting just 37.5 percent from the field, committing 15 turnovers and being outrebounded by five.
What's more, Arizona nearly gave away a six-point lead they had with 53 seconds left after Kyle Fogg hit a three-pointer.
Fogg missed 2 of 4 free throws in the final 12 seconds and Solomon Hill missed both of his with 23 seconds left, giving UCLA a chance to win or tie the game but the Bruins could not capitalize.
The win moved Arizona to 21-9 overall and 12-5, with a week off before its final regular-season game on March 4 at ASU.
UCLA dropped to 16-13 and 9-7.
In their final home regular-season game, Fogg and center Jesse Perry led the Wildcats. Fogg had 20 points and nine rebounds, while Perry had 16 points and eight rebounds.
UA closed out the Bruins by going on a 10-2 run late in the second half, taking a 60-55 lead with two minutes to go.
The Wildcats had a three-point lead entering the final minute before Fogg hit his three-pointer with 53 seconds to go to put the Wildcats ahead 63-57. Tyler Lamb then scored for UCLA to make it 63-59 and UCLA called timeout.
Lamb lost the ball out of bounds with 30 seconds left, and UCLA began fouling. But After Hill missed both free throws he took with 23 and, after Josh Smith made two for UCLA with 12 seconds left, the Wildcats led just 63-61 with 12 seconds left.
UCLA's Jerime Anderson made two free throws with 10 seconds left to cut UA's lead to just 64-65, but Fogg hit 1 of 2 free throws with 7.8 seconds left and the Anderson missed a final jumper at the buzzer.
Arizona took a 54-53 lead into the final four minutes after Fogg hit 6 of 7 free throws over a two minute span late in the second half.
Fogg picked up a foul from Anderson while driving the baseline past Smith and had a chance to tie the game with the free throw. He missed, leaving the game at 53-52, but picked up another foul from Tyler Lamb and shot two free throws that gave UA a 54-53 lead.
UCLA led 47-44 with 7:28 left.
Arizona had calleda timeout trailing 45-39 with 10:04 left in the game. UA is shooting 3 for 11 from the field in the half.
Over the first eight minutes of the second half, the Wildcats shot just 2 for 7 from the field and had five turnovers.
But they never had to worry much about UCLA center Josh Smith, who picked up his fourth foul with 12:34 left.
Arizona coach Sean Miller was whistled for a technical foul with 13:35 left and the Bruins scored three points afterward – one on a technical free throw by Travis Wear and two on a basket from Jerime Anderson.
Nick Johnson started the second half in place of Brendon Lavender.
In the first half, Arizona managed to take a 27-26 halftime lead despite shooting just 32 percent from the field, the Arizona Wildcats managed to take a 27-26 halftime lead over UCLA today at McKale Center.
The Wildcats entered the final minute ahead by two, but David Wear made 1 of 2 free throws to cut the UA lead to 27-26 and Anthony Stover blocked a shot from UA's Solomon Hill with 28 seconds left and a final UCLA possession did not produce a score.
Hill led the Wildcats with nine points in the half while Jerime Anderson had 10 points for UCLA and Travis Wear had nine points and six rebounds.
UA senior guards Kyle Fogg and Brendon Lavender, playing their final regular-season home game of their careers, struggled from the field. Fogg hit just 1 of 7 shots and Lavender was 1 for 4.
Lavender hit his first three-pointer of the game with 4:20 left to give UA a 21-20 lead but UCLA's Jerime Anderson gave the Bruins a 22-21 lead entering the final media timeout of the half (3:08).
Earlier, Angelo Chol missed a bank shot and Travis Wear scored on the other end to tie the game at 18 with 5:07 left.
UCLA' 300-pounder Josh Smith was a limited factor in the first half, picking up his third foul with 6:31 left in first half.
Smith came in the game with 17:17 left and UA responded by inserting seldom-used center Alex Jacobson.
Jacobson quickly fouled Smith, but Smith picked up a defensive foul on Josiah Turner on the next play and had his second after less than four minutes on the floor.
Still, the Bruins took early leads of 8-4 and 10-9, outrebounding the Wildcats 9-4 over the first eight minutes of the game.
Lavender received his second straight start in what is the final regular-season home game for Lavender and UA's other four seniors, with Nick Johnson coming off the bench.
On Thursday, Lavender started in place of Josiah Turner.

BLOOMBERG SHILLS should now scream $6B BOMB instead of The Scary $3B Bomb Not on Netflix's Balance Sheet: Video
Is Netflix Hiding $3.68 Billion in Debt?
By Benzinga, July 06, 2012, 03:18:18 PM EDT
Vote up
Accounting rules have allowed Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX ) to bury $3.68 billion in commitments and contingencies. Should investors be worried? The video rental giant did not attempt to hide its current liabilities, which came in at nearly $1.5 billion. But under the "commitments and contingencies" section of the balance sheet, Netflix left a big, blank space.
Bloomberg's Cory Johnson dug through the company's 108-page quarterly SEC filing and found that Netflix has an additional $3.68 billion in commitments not listed on the balance sheet . More than $700 million is due in less than one year, and another $2.37 billion is due in less than three years.
According to Netflix, "Either the fee is not known or reasonably determinable for a specific title or it is known but the title is not yet available for streaming to subscribers."
Thus, Johnson said that Netflix has a contract and it knows how much money it will owe, but because the title is not yet available for streaming, accounting rules let the firm keep these commitments off the balance sheet.
Investors should note that the mysterious commitments are the minimum for what Netflix might owe. According to Johnson, "The company does not estimate what the total obligation may be beyond any minimum quantities."
However, Netflix did warn that the total obligation is "expected to be significant.

At work, they have this stupid banner that starts up automatically when the user logs in. It isn't programmed well, gets in the way and is generally annoying, so I kill it through the Task Manager, everyday. I want to programmatically stop it or kill it on startup.
My main problem is, I am not 100% sure how it is started and I don't have access to a registry viewer (and they disable regedit) to find out, but even if I could, I doubt I would have permission to edit the setting.
I have tried putting a batch script in my startup folder with the following:
taskkill /IM banner.exe
Problem there is, sometimes my script gets executed before
banner.exe starts.
What is the best solution for stopping or killing this application automatically?

I'm hoping we take a look at Antonio Garay. Vet guy who was a starting NT for the Chargers within the last few years.
Rotate with Garay with Dorsey, and let Dorsey and Dobbs rotate with Smith and McDonald.

Current Interests/Needs (in order of importance IMHO) - Note that top tier = higher need & second tier = secondary need (some breathing room). If a need is labeled top tier, it could also indicate the large drop off in talent from a starter to the next-man-up.
Top Tier T - We needed a "swing T" so we got three: Carter Bykowski and Luke Marquardt (PUP) and we brought back Adam Snyder. That said, Marquardt is on the NFI list, Bykowski was cut and NOBODY wants Snyder to be the backside blocker for CK (hand injury as well). Worse off, if there is another injury to Staley, we may have to mess with the chemistry along the entire OL and move Boone from RG to T (not easy to adjust to on the fly) and insert someone else at RG (2 of 5 positions); that would be Looney (LG) or Kilgore. This is NOT good. We still have a major hole here IMHO. I'm waiting for us to pick up a veteran LT...
Top Tier Cover SS - It's safe to say the FO got their man in Reid at FS. Dahl seems like a viable backup at both SS/FS and will also help a ton on ST. That said, Whitner still can't cover esp. in the RZ and looks even slower to me so far in pre season; so scheme will have to be the theme for 2013 here. Fangio is going to have to put Reid 1on1 on the Boldin's and tall slot TE's of the world. That said, he didn't do that with Goldson, so why would he with Reid? Nothing else to report here save for Spillman and perhaps, Robinson (if he even makes it; short as well). We shouldn't have to rely solely on the pass rush esp. in the RZ where passes are typically made less than a 3-step drop and right down the middle of the field (I'm looking at you Whitner and the underneath coverage of Willis/Bowman!).
Top Kickoff Coverage Unit/Ace Kick-Punt Returner - Our best gunners this pre season by far were Lockette, Morris and Osgood. All are gone. And Moore may not be playing gunner on ST either if he isa primary WR. This is an ignored area of concern and it cost us in the (NFCCG and Superbowl) and it still affected us greatly in pre season. Cox has looked better than James (injured) but nobody would classify him as "dynamic/electric" and nobody fears him taking it to the house every time he touches the ball (like we do against every team we face, it seems). While some teams have 2 dynamic returners, we can't seem to find one. Now Patton is being tried out, Williams is back but hasn't taken a snap all pre season and Hawkins was cut; he looked like the only real viable "dynamic" returner who has some "it" to him. We seem to have good interior guys but not lightning speed outside. Spillman and Brock will rack up the tackles again on the outside but these are the same two gunners as last year and that unit was average, at best. Raymond Ventrone was given to Seely but he is also expected to be cut when others return and come off the PUP. I'm expecting Seely to resign any day now. LOL
Top or Second Tier DE - Tomsula had Christmas with getting Cornellius Carradine, Quinton Dial and a major project in Lawrence Okoye but he may not see any of them until Christmas 2013! That said, Tank and Dial will most likely be red-shirted this year (PUP) and Okoye is still hoping to make the PS. Fortunately, Dobbs continues to impress and is expected t supplant either Will Tukuafu or Tony Jerod-Eddie after week 1.
Top or Second Tier CB - In the end, we only kept 5 CB's. For a team that is historically facing 4+ WR sets and tends to suffer injuries here, this may be a little concerning. There is now a good chance we lose both Marcus Cooper and Darryl Morris. We are expecting Eric Wright back after week 6 though and hopefully, he'll be up to game speed.
Top or Second Tier NT - SCHEME is the new THEME in 2013! With keeping 6 DL, expect many more 4-man DL sets with plenty of outside pass rushers up at the LOS. Ian Williams thus far, has been tremendous and appears to be even better than Sopoaga/RJF and Glen Dorsey appears to be a viable rotation NT and he can also play DE. Lamar Divens may be added to the PS and developed ala Ian Williams last year.
Second Tier WR - Well, it seems like Moore or Patton will end up being the primary WR opposite Boldin. Crabtree's injury hurts a lot but thankfully we have an even more productive veteran in Boldin to ease that loss. Do not expect Crabtree back at all this year though IMHO. That said, we can expect Manningham back after week 6 which is why we will start the year with only 5 WR's: X = Marlon Moore/Jon Baldwin --- Y = Kyle Williams --- Z = Anquan Boldin/Quinton Patton. The important thing to remember here is that we run a "package offense" so ALL of these guys will be used in all WR positions depending on the play called by HaRoMan. And let's be honest here, keeping only 5 WR's is a strong indication that we plan on using Vernon Davis and Vance McDonald a ton, lining them up everywhere to create mismatches. So lower your expectations in terms of total receptions from the WR group this year. I saw a couple times this pre season where we ran a 5-receiver set and only one of those players was a WR.
Second Tier C - In the end we stayed with the wiley vet, Jonathan Goodwin and his inflated salary but Daniel Kilgore put up quite the fight. Also, Looney has been working out at LG and C and he looks much much better at C. In fact, he looks legit at C.
Third Tier FB - This was a big concern of mine because we had nobody behind Bruce Miller and he is vital to our running game (and can catch). The team then cut Jason Schepler so my concern remained. But low-and-behold, Harbaugh goes out and gets "his" guy in Owen Marecic. He should fit in nicely in an offense he already knows and should add some ST value as well.
Third Tier TE - Harbauh got HIS man in Vance McDonald here too. Davis, McDonald and Celek should abolsutely tear it up this year. And most are expecting MarQueis Gray to get devloped in the PS.

Apply for CertificationHelp Organic Grow
2014 is the last season in which organic apple and pear growers can use antibiotics to control fire blight. Now is the time to look at non-antibiotic controls, for which there has been significant progress in the past few years.
New resources are available to help organic producers make a plan for combatting fire blight. Download the Alternative Controls for Fire Blight 2014 Update.
Understandably, organic growers are concerned about the Asian Citrus Psyllid (ACP), a pest that is a carrier of a devastating disease of citrus trees, huanglongbing (HLB). ACP findings are particularly concerning for organic producers because of how few choices there are for organic control methods. In cases of CDFA eradication efforts, there are no currently accepted organic treatments, but organic producers do have tools for management and prevention.
The bagrada bug, referred to as an "invasive stink bug" by researchers, is often seen as a mating couple on brassica family plants. A native of the African and Asian continents, this insect first made its appearance in the western United States in 2008. Since then, its American range has spread east from Los Angeles County to Arizona and areas of southern Nevada, Utah, and west-central New Mexico. It has been found as far north as Monterey County.
The Pest and the Damage Done
The invasive stinkbug known as the Bagrada bug continues to hopscotch its way through California. First found in Los Angeles County in 2008, it is now found throughout the state as far north as Yolo County. The pest has caused damage to many organic crops this summer and fall, primarily to mustard family crops including kale, arugula, broccoli, cabbage, collards, and other mustard greens. Bagrada bug also has caused damage to peppers, melons, tomatoes, corn, snap beans, and sunflowers.
CCOF encourages you to review California's proposed plan for invasive plant pest management. A draft Environmental Impact Report (EIR) describing the plan is open for comment through October 31, 2014.
In a recent press conference, Sandy Schubert, undersecretary of the California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA), stated that the plan offers CDFA's best assessment of on-the-ground pest management practices and details the state's decision-making process in taking pest management actions.
The Bagrada Bug Working Group has launched its first issue of the quarterly publication Bagrada Bug News.
The Bagrada Bug Working Group is a collaboration between CCOF and researchers at CDFA's Plant Health and Pest Prevention Services, UC Cooperative Extension, USDA-ARS, UC Davis, UC Riverside, and University of Arizona. The working group convened in 2015 to address the challenge of managing this emerging pest in organic mustard-family crop production.
CCOF, the California Department of Food and Agriculture, and University of California Cooperative Extension are hosting a meeting on the invasive stinkbug Bagrada bug on Friday, December 11 at the Cooperative Extension office in Salinas from 9:30 a.m – 3 p.m. Click here to register for the meeting.
CCOF is collaborating with the California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA), scientists from numerous agencies, and Cooperative Extension on a Bagrada Bug Working Group. The working group brings together scientists and extension personnel from across the country who are working to develop organic management and biological control of Bagrada bug.
What is Bagrada bug?
Citrus greening disease, also known by its Chinese name Huanglongbing, threatens the citrus industry on a massive scale. It has devastated millions of acres of citrus crops throughout the United States and abroad, ravaging citrus in countries in Asia, Africa, and South America. The highly destructive disease can spread quickly, and once a tree is infected it cannot be cured.
Organic citrus growers have spent more than a year now wading through the decision-making process for policies regarding the spread and eradication of Asian Citrus Psyllid (ACP) and the deadly disease it can spread, Huanglongbing (HLB) or Citrus Greening. The California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) relies on a group of scientists known as the Science Advisory Panel (SAP) for recommendations about trapping and testing protocols, eradication zones, quarantines, and which materials are approved for control and/or eradication.

In the News: Seizures Led to Pregnancy Discovery
Reminiscent of TLC's "I Didn't Know I Was Pregnant," Amanda Prentice of Tennessee gave birth last week to what she and her husband are calling a "miracle baby" and with good reason! They didn't know she was pregnant until after she had life threatening seizures.
Amanda and her husband Billy tried to get pregnant for years but were unsuccessful. So one can only imagine the shock and excitement last month when doctors informed them that she was pregnant! But no sooner did the couple get the news, she went on to have her daughter, Allie five hours later.
Allie's birthday story started on April 23, 2012 when Amanda began having mysterious seizures. Her husband rushed her to the hospital in Lawrenceburg, TN where doctors felt her life was in danger.
She was LifeFlighted to Vanderbilt Hospital, but they were not prepared for the diagnosis "complications from pregnancy." The couple was shocked. How could that diagnosis be accurate when she was not even pregnant?
Amanda told News 9 in Tennessee, "The doctor came in and said, 'I've got good news and bad news. He said, 'your blood pressure has skyrocketed here in the last few days, but you've got a baby.'"
Weighing in at five pounds and five ounces, Allie was born healthy. "I never felt her move," Amanda said. "I wore the same clothes that I had worn for two years."
Husband Billy said, "The only signs she had was her feet and ankles had swollen up, and that was it."
The happy family is now receiving congratulatory cards from across the county. "We had been trying for four years and didn't think this was gonna happen," Amanda said. "We had talked about adopting, and now we've got our miracle baby," Bill said.
What do you think of this story? Have you heard of or known anyone who didn't know they were pregnant for many months? How could a person not realize they were pregnant? Let us know in the comments!

my partner and I have been
my partner and I have been trying for a baby for over two years now, We were going to a fertility clinic for about 5 months before somebody told us to contact this spell caster who is so powerful, We contacted him at this email; (firstname.lastname@example.com), for him to help us, then we told him our problem, he told us that we will either conceive in February 2014 or March 2014,but after two years of trying we were at a point where we were willing to try anything. And I'm glad we came to Dr EKA, Because his pregnancy spell cast put us at ease, and I honestly believe him, and his gods really helped us as well, I am thankful for all he has done. contact him via email: (email@example.com) if you are trying to get a baby or want your lover back. he has powers to do it, he has done mine you can as well contacted him (email@example.com) To enable you have a taste of his nice work too.

Of the nine ski-seasons and countless holidays I've been on, Claviere is by far my favourite place to spend time. Whether you are on holiday or working in resort, the residents of this tiny resort always make you feel welcome. If it's a raucous, booze and sex fuelled week you want then steer clear but if you want to combine fantastic skiing with traditional Italian mountain cuisine then book up.
For beginners and children the Claviere ski-school (the first one to be set up in Italy) is fantastic. All instructors speak excellent English and have the patience to match. For experts, most of the instructors have raced at a very high level and are more than happy to work on your technique.
The number 93 run (a long fast blue) from top to bottom is great for speed lovers! Stop in at restaurant 'Le Coche' for a hot wine.
My favourite place for an evening meal is in the slightly hidden away 'Ristorante Sandro', a friendly little place at the top of the resort near the ice rink. Or for fantastic pizza, head to the strangely named 'Pizzaria Kilt' or at the bottom of resort, the 'Igloo' or as its known the 'Murphys Pub'.
For live music and lots of shots of Genepi, head to Grand Bouc or for a sugar cube (soaked in grappa for over a year then promptly ignited before consumption) with your pint, head to the Gallo Cedrone.

a nicemeatless meal thank you for posting dee
Lovely stuff. I do love Welsh rarebit and this is a wonderful variation. BTW - in response to the comment I've never heard of a spicy Welsh rarebit before! According to Mrs Beeton's HomeCooking Worcestershire sauce and mustard are the "authentic" flavourings for a traditional Welsh rarebit.
What can I say. I've never tried something like this before, so I was kind of unsure. Am I glad that I did try this recipe. The sweetness of the onions, the wonderful blend of herbs, and the perfect crunch of the roll (I used a white roll), made this a outstanding side dish. Many thanks.

Re: Windows 7 RC and ScanJet G4050 Scanner
This page bears no resemblance to the truth. I have searched daily for drivers for my G4050 scanner, and continue to be disappointed, particularly in view of the fact that the other scanners I considered all, I repeat, ALL, have both 32 and 64 bit drivers and software.
It has been over two months since the public release of Windows 7.................................................
Re: Windows 7 RC and ScanJet G4050 Scanner
I feel the same way. It is a disgrace that in the 3 months I've had my G4050, the only way I can use it is by rebooting into 32-bit Windows XP Pro, when I do all my other work in Windows 7 64-bit. I spent a good part of an evening online with HP support with nothing being resolved. I was told I would hear from them by email, that has not happened. When will it be possible to use a CURRENT scanner with a CURRENT operating system without crashing the computer? We're not asking for Windows 95 support for a new scanner or Windows 7 support for an old SCSI scanner!
Re: Windows 7 RC and ScanJet G4050 Scanner
I called HP support twice and they gave me false dates of when the driver will be released, last I called was about 3 weeks ago and they said they already had the driver ready, and it would be released December 25th.... well Christmas came and still no drivers. If it's ready, why is it not being released, and if it's not ready what is the excuse for them being so late!
I did the whole installation in compatibility mode too, which worked for a couple days, but Windows 7 must have updated and now it doesn't work in compatibility mode.
It's a nice scanner, but I can't use it. Windows 7 is a main stream operating system, this is ridiculous. I am going to stray away from HP as much as possible. Quality obviously doesn't come before quantity for HP!
I think the only possibility is having 2 operating systems on my computer
Re: Windows 7 RC and ScanJet G4050 Scanner
Same experiences as mentioned already, but can make the beast work with Adobe Acrobat to scan a searchable pdf (it uses its own OCR). I can also scan photographs through native scanner drivers, then just crop the full page into the multiple images.
BUT I cannot turn on the TMA bulb for negatives and slides, which is one of the main reasons I bought this scanner. Even if HP can't find the smarts to rewrite the full install for Windows 7, at least they should be able to publish a driver which turns on a bulb (does anyone know a bootleg way to turn on the TMA backlight ?)
Re: Windows 7 RC and ScanJet G4050 Scanner
HP is way behind, I'm taking this thing back. They are not listening to their customers, they won't give any hint to how long till the drivers come out. It's bad business!
Re: Windows 7 RC and ScanJet G4050 Scanner
I find HP's level of service absolutely appalling. The Scanjet G4050 is an expensive piece of kit and HP should have ensured that Windows 7 drivers were available from (Windows) launch. If you're thinking of buying an HP product, think very carefully before committing yourself. I won't be doing so again.
Re: Windows 7 RC and ScanJet G4050 Scanner
I have a HP 5590 scanjet and it works with windows 7, but the option to scan as a pdf is gone. I can scan as a jpeg. Any advice or downloads would be great!

Hi if you have a link to a working set of drivers and HP Scanjet software for the HP Scanjet G4050 please share the link.
You can send it to [email removed for privacy]
I can not seem to find it on the site myself...
thanks in advance
Re: Windows 7 RC and ScanJet G4050 Scanner
Hi, I just got off the phone (again) with HP, and I'm now being told late Feb./early Mar. before a driver is available for the Scanjet G4050 wtih Windows 7 OS. I just don't get it! Does anyone else think there is some problem going on between Microsoft and HP? I can use the 'basic' scan functions, but not the film and slide scanning features, which is precisely why I bought it to begin with!
Re: Windows 7 RC and ScanJet G4050 Scanner
While HP may not have a Win7 specific set of software and drivers, they do offer a download of a Vista set that works well under Win7 (home premium 64-bit). Below is an email sent to me by HP support. I did what they said and the scanner works in all ways that I have tried. Note carefully the requirement to apply Vista compatibility mode on the EXE file, before double-clicking it. Good luck.
From the details provided in your e-mail, I understand that you want to install your HP Scanjet G4050 Photo Scanner in Windows 7.
I would like to inform you that as of now, we not have the full feature software especially for Windows 7.
In order to troubleshoot this issue, I suggest that we can try installing the vista compatible software in compatibility mode.
Please visit the URL given below to download the software for your scanner:
Please follow the given steps to install the software:
1. Click on the link and then on "Download" tab
2. Now a small download window will open, please select "save" and select the destination as "Desktop". Now the software will get downloaded in your system.
3. Please right-click on the file and select properties.
4. Now select 'compatibility' tab
5. Now check mark on 'Run this program in compatibility mode for' and select windows Vista from the drop down list
6. Then click on 'Apply and OK'.
Please try installing the software now by double clicking on the downloaded file and check if it works.
