It's not.
Based on what evidence? My evidence says it is.

Regardless of what the left says, it is mostly behavioral.
The left of what? To let this settle into a
dichotomy is inaccurate and ignores critical thought processes.

If it wasn't, people couldn't be "cured", so to speak.
Show some evidence of a "cure," and I'll start listening to what you have to say on this... until then, you're only stating an opinion or hope.

In other words, though people may struggle occasionally with homosexuality after turning away from it, they overall are capable of moving on and having normal, loving,
How do you know? What empirical evidence do you base that assumption on.
Originally posted by Master_Keralys
It's an excellent point about the length of relationships. Actually, studies have shown that most gays/lesbians don't stay together very long at all. Actually, the maximum most homosexual couples stay together is two years; many are together much less.
I'm interested in reading this study, can you cite a referance?

And most don't want marriage. Why bother, when you can get all that and not have to deal with the legal issues?
Because there are certain rights that are missing, which include the right to make decisions regarding children and inherit estates as well as simply file taxes. Among many, many others that legal marriage entails.

It is the extreme left that is pushing for legalization of gay marriage, because it suits their agenda.
That's a cop out explanation.
does it suit their agenda? Human rights? Shouldn't that
on the agenda?

Now, I'm not saying it's a conspiracy or anything, just as the conservatives don't have a conspiracy against homosexuals.
Some might disagree. There is a proportionally large number of conservative right that is comprised of the so-called "moral majority" or "christian right." These extremists seek to oppress homosexual behavior in remarkably similar ways as they once did blacks in this country.
Originally posted by Master_Keralys
The thing is, though, that the extreme left doesn't like the traditional family, because the traditional family represents traditional values and ideas, which are in direct opposition to the leftist agenda.
More political bull**** about a dichotomy... this kind of thinking from both the so-called left and the so-called right is ruining our country. People don't think
for themselves
any more, but trade their critical thinking for the views of those that are
like them
. They create an
to unify their group. Like the old man said... "the thing about that little purple thing in chicken crap is... it's chicken crap too."

All religious issues aside, homosexual relationships are not marriage, unless we completely redefine the word.
change all the time
in dictionaries. The English language is influanced by the society.
Originally posted by Master_Keralys
Also, in a more practical sense - who are we to think that we can overturn what every civilization has said?!!! No major civilization has approved of homosexuality except in its decadence. Rather, all societies spurn it for the simple reason that it is not natural.
We covered the "natural" part. Most major civilizations also approved of slavery at some point in their histories... people used to be stoned to death for adultery... castes and classes once precluded many from education or employment opportunities...
It's called progress.

It's not really biological either. The studies showing ...
What studies. Cite some references, please.
What amazes me is that in the year 2003, there are still those that think homosexuals
their "lifestyles." A look at history will show that homosexuality has been in existance for as long as history has been recorded and, based on primate studies, probably before we had culture. It also amazes me that there are those who are willing to make a dichotomy out of this issue:
Left versus Right
The bottom line is, there is
no legitimate reason
to prohibit the marriage of two people of the same gender. Tradition isn't a good enough reason, that it's not natural fails as an explanation, that the world might not continue to be populated fails, that god is against it doesn't even deserve consideration in a modern secular society, and that the traditional family will break down doesn't work either. That happened in the 1970's.
For a supposedly advanced society like ours, we certainly can be barbaric and savage when it comes to human rights.

Although distinctly a California food, avocados originated in south-central Mexico between 7000 and 5000 B.C. Archeologists in Peru found domesticated avocado seeds buried with Incan mummies dating back to 750 B.C.
Commonly assumed to be a vegetable, this green temptation actually is a fruit that is sodium- and cholesterol-free. When ripe and ready to eat, avocados are firm, but yield to gentle pressure. The most popular variety of the fruit is Hass, but there are seven others from which to choose. Although the avocado has more fat than most fruits at approximately five grams per piece, most of it is the healthy monounsaturated variety. Avocados have 60% more potassium than bananas and are rich in B vitamins, as well as vitamins E and K. They are not sweet, and the greenish-yellow flesh features a creamy texture.
In the kitchen
Often a replacement for meat in vegetarian dishes, avocado also is used as a base for guacamole and as a filling for several varieties of sushi. It is popular in chicken dishes and salads. At Golden Door Spa in Escondido, California, you can enjoy Chilled Cream of Corn Soup with avocado, lime and red pepper coulis. The Chilled Lobster and Artichoke Salad with avocado is a favorite at The Spa at Short Hills in Short Hills, New Jersey. Try a more exotic dish with Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin-based The Sundara Spa's Tofu Sauté, which is garnished with salsa and whipped avocado salad. The Croissant of Shrimp and Avocado is popular at Willow Stream, the Spa at The Fairmont Empress in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. Avocado also graces the Kohler Waters Spa Salad and the Kohler Waters Spa in Kohler, Wisconsin. Also see Southwest Grilled Chicken Soup, courtesy of chef Nathan Wright at Green Mountain at Fox Run in Ludlow, Vermont.

Chinese Artist-Prodigy Wang Yani Wows D.c. with a One-Girl Show
Yani got her wish. With her father's encouragement she quickly mastered China's traditional brush-and-ink style of painting, and within months it was clear she was a prodigy. At 4, she had her first show; by 6, she had completed 4,000 paintings, and by the time she was 8, one of her works was reproduced on a postage stamp. More recently the shy, 5' wunderkind, whose works now number about 10,000, became, at 14, the youngest artist ever to have a solo show at the Smithsonian Institution. Titled Yani: The Brush of Innocence, the show opened June 25 at the Smithsonian's Arthur M. Sackler Gallery and will travel later to Kansas City and San Francisco. It features 69 of Yani's paintings—some of which she did at 4—showing a playful world of monkeys, birds, trees and flowers. What makes Yani's paintings special, says assistant Sackler curator Jan Stuart, is that she uses "traditional Chinese subjects like monkeys to express her own childhood experiences."
To help kick off her U.S. debut, Yani and Shiqiang, 40, left Gongcheng, in southern China, and visited Washington, D.C., last month. Their trip was nearly canceled because of the turmoil in Beijing, but Yani prefers not to talk about that. What she is happy to discuss, through an interpreter, is her art. "When I paint," she says, "if I am surrounded by people watching me—that would make my day. The more people, the better." Then she adds quietly, "I like every painting, and I remember every one."
Back home in Gongcheng, Yani explains, "I go to school at 6:45 every morning. At 11:30 I come home, then I paint. I go to school at 2, come back at 5, then I paint and have dinner. Then I go to school at 7 and come back at 9:30." When she hears that Americans go to school for six hours a day and get the summer off, she breaks into giggles.
Yani's family has worked hard on her behalf. Her father, now an administrator for the cultural center in Gongcheng, stopped his own painting years ago so he could concentrate on nurturing Yani. To help keep her in supplies (paper alone costs $1,000 a year), her mother, Tang Fong Jiao, 39, works in a department store. And Yam's 9-year-old brother has been discouraged from painting because the Wangs feared Yani would be influenced by his style.
So far, Yani's delight in her craft has been the family's major reward. Her paintings are valuable—a set of four prints she donated to the Chinese government were snapped up by a Japanese collector for $13,000. But artists in China are often restricted in selling their work privately, and as yet Yani's paintings, which are stored at home, are not on the market.
Perhaps a career with a firmer financial future will be in order someday? Yani seems bewildered by the suggestion. "It is not possible," she says. "I only want to paint."

SDK /bin/sencha fails on macos
If you install the sdk and aren't using /bin/bash as your shell, you will probably get an installation error. This is (it seems) because the installer wants to add stuff to your bashrc to work correctly.
The better fix is to change the script in 'SenchaSDKTools-2.0.0-Beta/bin/sencha' to do this at runtime, and that way it won't care about what shell you are using.
Here's how the script should look:
#!/bin/sh # we can override the default location of the setup from a .file if test -e ".senchasdk" then sdkpath=`cat .senchasdk` else # work out where we are BIN=$(dirname $(which $0)) # and set the path to the parent dir sdkpath=$(dirname $BIN) fi # once we've done that, we still need to massage the $PATH to add # some other dirs PATH=$sdkpath:$PATH PATH=$sdkpath/bin:$PATH PATH=$sdkpath/command:$PATH PATH=$sdkpath/jsbuilder:$PATH # set up the DIR for sencha command DIR=$sdkpath/command # now run the command tool jsdb -path $DIR $DIR/sencha.js $*
6 Apr 2012 5:22 PM #2
So, after more digging and debugging I found out that the individual SDKs (Touch, ext4) override the script that's in 'command/sencha'.
This is why all the demos and tutes make you 'cd' to the SDK folder before running sencha command, because it wants you to find this override file ( called '.senchasdk' ).
This is inherently bad because sooner or later someone is going to type:
sencha generate app GS GS
Instead of
sencha generate app GS ../GS
And they will create all sorts of cruft in the SDK folder, which is the last place you want it to be.
The whole setup should be re-shaped so that it knows where the SDK is, knows where the tools are, and lets you work anywhere in the filesystem.
The laziest way to do this is with another environment variable pointing to the SDK, thus :
setenv SENCHASDK ~/src/ext/sencha-touch-2.0.0-gpl sencha generate app GS ~/wherever/i/damn/well/want
#!/bin/sh # the individual SDKs (touch, Ext4, etc) drop in a special .file # so that you will load up their version of sencha/command # instead of the default you may have installed # # BUT, you still need the SDK tools, because they have the all important # things like jsdb # # so 'bin/sencha' calls './command/sencha' or the default 'command/sencha' # IFF all the paths are set correctly # # naturally, the *lazy* thing to do is pass the location of # your SDK as an environment variable # first, add a few things to the path # work out where we are BIN=$(dirname $(which $0))"" # and set the path to the parent dir SDKTOOLDIR=$(dirname $BIN) PATH=$SDKTOOLDIR:$PATH PATH=$SDKTOOLDIR/bin:$PATH PATH=$SDKTOOLDIR/command:$PATH PATH=$SDKTOOLDIR/jsbuilder:$PATH # now see if we have an SDK that has local overrides. if [ ${SENCHASDK} ] then # run the command from the ENV setting $SENCHASDK/command/sencha $* elif test -e ".senchasdk" then # run the local override of sencha command sdkpath=`cat .senchasdk` $sdkpath/command/sencha $* else # use the default DIR="$SDKTOOLDIR/command" jsdb -path $DIR $DIR/sencha.js $* fi

|Reviews for Ascendancy
| EviRuha.Shiroyama chapter 1 . 3/21
Hey there~
I loved this story, very much so! simply adore the idea of Sasori getting Sakura as his puppet, in fact I'm even cosplaying as Sakura being his puppet, yes! :D
There don't seem to be enough fics on this topic, so it felt like a blessing to find your work. I am in fact a SasoSaku fan to the core, can't believe I didn't find it sooner, shame on me!
Smooth going, nice storytelling, beautiful in-character for both of them. What a shame you don't consider sequel, it'd turn up amazing, I am sure.
Thank you for sharing!
EviRuha (:
| NexVenustas chapter 1 . 10/3/2014
I would love for this to be continued. To be honest, I love this pairing. It is so warped and twisted love, if you could call it that, perhaps it is more an obsession. Either way its more unique and interesting then most other works of literature.
| Koomahana chapter 1 . 8/11/2014
I can't wait for the next capture!

I did not expect fluffy story, but this is creepy. And I like it :) thank you for writing and sharing!

This piece is by far the most ruthless form of foreplay that I've ever had the pleasure of encountering.
It was dangerous and did more than send me over the edge.
It was delicious and utterly cruel.
Sex without the promise of an orgasm.
If you intend to leave this as it is then you are one merciless woman.
But I will follow this story in hopes seeing what you might have in store for us.
Damn it, this is going to prevent me from sleeping for days on end.

Love it :) I do hope you continue this!
| izukey chapter 1 . 5/7/2013
Sasori... Is really such a freak. WTF.
He's using her to... feel? Does that mean he'll use her to feel pleasure, and when she's hurt, he'll just kind of back off?
I like it.

Honestly, I like this pair as well. It has that dark theme to it in a way. Not to mention sexy also (in my opinion xD). This practically left me begging for more as to the countless possible outcomes. Not even my imagination leaves me satisfied, but I won't push it. If it's meant to be a one shot, then okay! I still enjoyed reading this piece. Well done, indeed. I loved how you portrayed Sasori's character so well.

This bread was fantastic!! Moist and flavorful. I used the brown sugar but did not find it to be too sweet, just perfect!! I brought a loaf to our morning playgroup and there was nothing left! I did have to bake about 15 minutes longer than suggested to prevent the center from being soggy but other than that I followed the recipe to a tee. Thanks so much for posting:)
Delicious! I made a few changes according to my tastes/diet. I used 1/3 c. coconut oil instead of butter and 1/3 c. agave instead of the sugar. I also made muffins instead of bread for convience sake. I freeze them so I can have one a day for breakfast. Just microwave for 1 min. and it's like having fresh baked muffins each morning! Next time I think I'll use whole wheat flour. Thanks for the delish recipe!
Wonderful!!! It was very dense, but soft and moist, which is exactly what I was looking for. Very pleasant, smooth flavor. I used half whole wheat flour, frozen blueberries, and no nuts (hubby hates nuts in bread/muffins etc). I used both the brown sugar and the white sugar called for, but for the white sugar I used a half sugar/half splenda blend. I sprinkled some of that blend w/ some cinnamon on top. Hubby absolutely loves this! (Me too, but I made it for him!) I made it in a loaf pan, and it took maybe 20 min longer than the recipe says, but totally worth it! Might try it as muffins next time, or even in a cake pan and drizzle a little glaze over it after. Wonderful recipe! Thank you so much!
This is an okay recipe eaten warm or a couple hours later, but if you wait until the next day, you will be rewarded! I used half vanilla/half almond extract, increased the strawberries to 2c, and used finely chopped (almost ground) almonds. Since I made two batches, I made muffins and an 8x8 pan. I think the muffins are a bit tastier, but maybe it's because they were scooped first and got more strawberries, not sure. This is great plain, with butter, or with more strawberries on top for a decadent strawberry shortcake! I was also making a double batch of banana bread (muffins & an 8x8 pan), so combined what was left of both batters and baked a loaf of strawberry-banana bread!
Well, it's great as Peaches & Cream Bread too! I had peaches on hand so gave that a try instead of strawberries or blueberries. I just had my first piece still warm from the oven - SO GOOD! I'm going to tell my friends about this one!
This was the BEST bread I have EVER eaten in my life!!! I made the strawberry version & only had light sour cream instead of regular- it still came out amazing!!! I also chose not to use nuts. I loved it so much I am currently making 2 more loaves for friends & family. I almost want to pick more strawberries for the sole reason of making more of this yummy bread! Perfect combination of everything & this is now my new "forever keeper" recipe! When I took it out of the oven, hubby cut into it & it almost looked slightly uncooked & mushy (probably from all strawberry juices) and I wanted to throw it back into the oven. DO NOT! I decided not to & so glad because when it cooled- it was PERFECT. Moist, easy to cut, etc! The best bread you will ever make- I promise! Thank you for this reicpe!
I made this with fresh strawberries from my garden for a girls movie night. The entire loaf was consumed before the movie was half over. Very good.... everyone loved it. I used all the wet mixture in the recipe and it was the perfect consistency. I think the key there might be beating the ingredients really well so that it is very light and fluffy.
After reading all the great reviews I decided to go ahead and double the recipe.I'm so glad I did because this is really delicious bread.I've tried other strawberry bread recipes but this one is definately my favorite so far.I used a full 16 oz package of fresh strawberries and I used Greek yogurt instead of sour cream. I upped the cinnamon to a full teaspoon and instead of butter I used 1/2 cup of applesauce and 1/2 cup of oil. I'm not wild about nuts in my bread so I decided to leave them out. Since I doubled the recipe I used 1 1/2 cups of sugar and 1/2 cup of brown sugar.I still felt it wasn't quite sweet enough but that's probably because my strawberries were not very sweet.I think it would be good with a brown sugar topping and next time I'll add even more strawberries.I can't wait to make this bread again!
I really loved this recipe! The night that I made it I talked 4 of my friend in to making it too. Next time I make it I am going to post a picture and make some strawberry whipped cream to go with the bread (idea via the posted pic). This is a great morning bread to go with coffee or tea. Thank you so much for posting - instant staple in our house!
Oddly this is the first time I've made bread and it was wonderful. My neighbor gave me a quart of fresh picked local Maine blueberries. This recipe is perfect, as is, if you are trying to showcase the fruit. Easy to make and it tastes delicious. I followed the directions exactly. I actually had to bake it for an additional 10 minutes. Love it! Thank you so much for a great recipe. I'll definitely be using it again and again.

While continuing to stay true to our core value of improving upon the user experience, Clipix, the social and mobile bookmarking service has launched Clipix QR Code Generator.
QR Codes have been in the market for awhile, and we feel that the use of them was not very popular by the consumer, because there was never a good and efficient way to organize them for later use. The Clipix QR Code Generator enables anyone and everyone to generate their own custom QR Code whether it be a link to a business's website, video, even PDF files. Professionals ranging from individual bloggers to large corporations can easily use the Clipix QR Code Generator to present their promotional material. Instead of scanning a useless QR code with no destination, Clipix provides a platform to save everything you see and easily get back to in an organized fashion.
Currently QR Codes will re-direct consumers to a desired link without a convenient way to save or reference the content later. If you're an organizational maven like we are, then you know that we had to put a stop to this. With the Clipix QR Code Generator, consumers will not only scan your materials but they will have an organized platform to reference your business or anything you are trying to promote, at any time. Consumers are more likely to return to promotional material if there is a convenient and organized way to find it, in order to come back to it.
Where you place the custom QR Code when promoting your material, is up to you. Whether it is on an advertising poster, real-estate "for sale" sign or on a plaque at your booth during a convention.

that Magal has about $1.60/share in cash and netassets of about $6/share? Even though we missed theprojected earnings by our one analyst, if you subtract thecash/share from the stock price and divide by earnings,based on this one quarter we have a PE of about 3.5 Inother words, if Even-Ezra decided to buy back all thestock he could, we'd have a PE of 3.5WH
First, with all the cash they're sitting on it'sa nice strategy. They're still open toacquisitions, still pulling in lots of interest income andinstead of buying back stock, they give it back toinvestors. Something for everyone. Does that makethem a candidate for a buyout? I don't think so. Thesecond thing I was going to point out is that there'ssomething of a death watch going on with this company.Folks are waiting for another Flight 800 (July '96).Look at the chart. This company does nothing but pullback until something blows up. What the company wantsto do with the dividend payout is leave that imagebehind. Think about it. Lots of investors sitting on thesidelines waiting for something to happen and yet we'veNEVER been in better shape financially. It's timeinvestors got something for being stockholders, imo.We had some interest shown today. A bit of a uptick.Maybe a rally is getting underway. I hope.WH
any guesses as to what 's going on aa all of a sudden the board has decided to pay dividends.this is a bit unusual, maybe it's trying to attract buyers for a possible acquisition.
Yes I did see and do see a great potential. Thiscompany fitsinto my investment stratagey. I like yoursight on the actual worth vs short term earnings. Ilove charts and analysts, Guaranteed to screw with thestock price. People run when short term looks bad. Butthey can't look ahead 1 year. I have acquiredyesterday on the dip and will surely be buying more today.Hoping for another Dip. For those who want a looser,you can always buy SYQT. It was great yesterday. Onlyspeculation buying. I wish I would have daytraded Syqt.Bak to this stock. When I saw the earnings, and andPE, and the chart all coming together, I waspleased with their progress. The backlog Is the BIGGESTPLUS.I sure wern't going to get in at 3-6. But theirearnings provedit was getting its feet firmly planted.There should be a decent increase to higher levels,once the word gets out. Again we will all enjoy!
Keep up the momentum.. get your friends in SYQT here to earn back some money.. Unless you actively push this around, it is very difficult to keep this thing going up.

For flexible manufacturing systems, there are normally some durations in which a number of machines are idle and do not process any parts. Devising a control policy to turn off the idle machines and reduce their level of energy consumption is a significant contribution towards the green manufacturing paradigm. This paper addresses the design of such a control strategy for a closed-loop flow shop plant based on a one-loop pallet system. The main goal is to coordinate running of the machines and motion of pallets to gain the minimal energy consumption in idle machines, as well as to obtain the desired throughput for the plant. To fulfill this goal, first mathematical conditions, which economically characterize the on-off control for machines, are presented. Constrained to these conditions and the mathematical models describing the pallet system, a mixed integer nonlinear minimization problem with the energy monitor as the objective function is then developed. Provided that the problem computation time can be managed, the optimal control for the operation of the plant and the minimal energy consumption in the idle machines are computed. To deal with the time complexity, a linearized form of the model and a heuristic approach are introduced. These methods are applied to some examples of industrial size, and their impacts in practice are discussed and verified by using a discrete event simulation tool.

What is it about vaccines that make LO's cranky and upset for days and I've been reading on my BB, even weeks after the shots? Maybe it's a naive question but I seriously don't get it- could someone shed some light on this?
Why do shots make babies cranky?
Yeah, I can see that...I think of it all the time now...when my friends kids get sick or ear infections and stuff I can't help but think 'well...maybe if they didn't have vaccinations they wouldn't....' lol I know it's SO bad to think like that but I can't help it!
Mommy to Joslyn Raine. Born 9/02/10
My son is 12 weeks old and just got his shots today. He is usually such a good baby and sleeps through the night. He is now constantly crying and not acting like the happy baby that he usually is. I wish I could ease his discomfort, but nothing I do seems to work. He'll calm down or fall asleep for a little while in mine or my husbands arms, but as soon as we put him down, he starts crying a painful cry. Any suggestions/advice anyone could give us first time parents would be appreciated.

I do the same thing! It's not bad to think that way. It's probably true, and you know something a lot of parents don't (or aren't willing to).
I don't know, when I get the flu shot, my body aches for days and that was only 1 vaccine. So when a baby gets several of them at once, you can only imagine how their body feels.
Kristi-mom of Jakob-15 (5/1999), Jadelyn-7 (5/2007) and Journey-2 (3/2012), Surprise (2/2015)
I think because it starts to make a change in them that they or their bodies don't like so they react to the change by being cranky. When something isn't right with me, I am cranky too :)
Notice adults don't get multidoses of vaccines in one visit? Adults will maybe get a tetanus booster every 10 years or a flu shot once a year. But never 2, 3, 4 or several combo shots in one visit. Many adults realize they feel like they are achy and sick with flu-like symptoms right after their flu shot, so I figure it's the same for our little babies, but worse because they are dealing with more than one shot. And I think pharma and the MDs think they can easily get away with it, because the babies can't tell you what they're really feeling. :-(
That's why if someone is truly worried about VPDs and want to do a delayed or select schedule, I truly feel one shot per visit is the best route to go. Of course, the best route in my personal opinion is none at all (as I'm doing with DS). :-)
Emily Nicole, born July 2002
Trevor Alan, born August 2011
ANGY111: My best advice to you is to do your research and to either vaccinate on a delayed schedule or even better, not at all. There is very little you can do for your baby at this point. You could try an oz of warm (not hot) chamomile tea UNLESS there is a history of asthma or ragweed allergies in your family. Some of the other ladies might have better ideas to help your lo.

The CDP Nepal Earthquake Recovery Fund will address recovery efforts that aren't fully known yet and might take years to address. Earthquakes are difficult to respond to because of challenges facing relief organizations--such as blocked roads, damaged airports and buildings tottering on collapse--that limit access and maneuverability.
All donations to this fund will support disaster recovery and relief efforts in response to the region of Nepal impacted by this earthquake.
The Red Cross is working to provide first aid, search and rescue, and support to first responders. The American Red Cross is committing an initial $300,000 to the response operation and working closely with the Nepal Red Cross and the global Red Cross network to coordinate additional support.
Donations will go to the Nepal Earthquake Children's Relief Fund will support our disaster response to this emergency
An emergency response team from the AmeriCares India office in Mumbai is headed to the impact zone and relief workers are preparing shipments of medical aid and relief supplies for survivors.
CARE's humanitarian workers on the ground in Nepal are currently assessing the situation and determining immediate needs.
Your gift today will help us provide relief to those most affected by this disaster and others around the world.
UNICEF is mobilizing an urgent response to meet the needs of children affected by today's earthquake in Kathmandu, Nepal. With children accounting for half the country's population, UNICEF fears the disaster, which is reported to have already killed hundreds of people, will have a severe impact on children.
After a magnitude 7.8 earthquake hit Nepal on April 25th, many are in desperate need of relief. Thankfully, our local staff are safe. Currently access to the villages is extremely difficult due to road damage. We are assessing the situation in order to bring aid to the victims who have lost so much.
Supporting the people of the Himalayan region of Nepal for 27 years by funding humanitarian programs started by Venerable Thrangu Rinpoche. The earthquake has harmed buildings and everyone must live outside under tarps. Food & water are scarce and we will continue to provide for the children, monks and nuns in the relief and rebuilding efforts.
IDRF is doing its part to quickly develop a sustainable rehabilitation program in cooperation with reliable local partner NGOs. To address the needs of these people at this critical stage, we ask your support. You can give hope to the survivors.
All donations to this fund will support disaster recovery and relief efforts in response to the region of Nepal impacted by this earthquake. We are responding with medical teams, volunteers and medical supplies.

Do not go to Loveland when the forcast is for heavy snow, even a little wind, or cold, because, as it sits on the Continental Divide, all of these factors will be exaggerated here. Most of the good skiing is above treeline, so be prepared with the inside-the-glove hand warmers and extra layers.
Now, if you come on a good weather day (and not a weekend, so as to avoid the Denver crowds), then there is a lot to enjoy here. For beginners, there is a completely separate area with a couple of good runs. Even though Switchback and Twist are designated blue, they are great to learn on -- wide, smooth, and not very steep. This area is the reason I gave a higher rating in the "Family Friendly" category.
As for the main mountain, Nix Nox, Richard's Run, and Mambo off of Chair 1 are all fun. They also open early since that's where Loveland begins its snowmaking. They are shorter than runs you'll find at the major resorts, but you have to accept that when you come here. Chair 2 is long and takes FOREVER to get to its destination. I would advise only riding it once (to get to the upper mountain) and not returning to the base area if you can help it afterwards. Of course, you have to come down off of the mountain to eat, but you can get from the top of chair 1 to the bottom of chair 6, if you read signs closely, and avoid chair 2 that way.
All of the runs off of chair 6 are fun, but they are very short. The advantage to that, though, is a shorter lift ride as well. This isn't a bad place to make a lot of laps late in the day, when your legs could benefit from the shorter spurts.
My main complaint about the terrain at Loveland is that they don't groom enough of the good stuff. I know not everyone wants it to be groomed, so if you don't ski like me, then you can disagree with me. However, some of the best runs are in the open bowls off of chairs 4 and 8, and those would be amazing if something was groomed. These blues would be comparable to China Bowl at Vail if they were smooth. As it is, untouched, it gets choppy quickly, and it beats up your thighs. Maybe they do groom them sometimes and I just missed it. If so, I'll look forward to finding them groomed the next time.

Use the date Command to Measure Elapsed Time
When running bash scripts that take a long time to run it's often useful to know how long it took for the script to run. In addition to the overall run time, it's also often useful to know how long certain parts of the script took to run. The time command doesn't really help because it's meant to time a single command, not a sequence of commands. By using the %s format of date the script described here allows you to create as many timers as you want and time whatever part of a script you want.
The %s format of the date command outputs the number of seconds since Unix time began:
$ date +'%s' 1227068222
Using two of these values you can determine the elapsed time.
The following script defines a single bash function: timer. If called with no arguments it outputs the current second count. If called with an argument it assumes the argument is a value previously obtained by calling timer with no arguments and it outputs the time that has elapsed since the first value was obtained.
# Elapsed time. Usage:
# t=$(timer)
# ... # do something
# printf 'Elapsed time: %s\n' $(timer $t)
# ===> Elapsed time: 0:01:12
# If called with no arguments a new timer is returned.
# If called with arguments the first is used as a timer
# value and the elapsed time is returned in the form HH:MM:SS.
function timer()
if [[ $# -eq 0 ]]; then
echo $(date '+%s')
local stime=$1
etime=$(date '+%s')
if [[ -z "$stime" ]]; then stime=$etime; fi
dt=$((etime - stime))
ds=$((dt % 60))
dm=$(((dt / 60) % 60))
dh=$((dt / 3600))
printf '%d:%02d:%02d' $dh $dm $ds
# If invoked directly run test code.
if [[ $(basename $0 .sh) == 'timer' ]]; then
read -p 'Enter when ready...' p
printf 'Elapsed time: %s\n' $(timer $t)
## vim: tabstop=4: shiftwidth=4: noexpandtab:
## kate: tab-width 4; indent-width 4; replace-tabs false;
To use the function first obtain a starting timer value in the following manner:
Then when you want to know how much time has elapsed, pass the original timer value and print the result. For example, to print the timer obtained above:
printf 'Elapsed time: %s\n' $(timer $tmr)
Running the timer.sh script directly runs it in test mode. It obtains a timer, waits for you to hit enter, then prints the elapsed time:
$ sh timer.sh Enter when ready... # Wait a while here Elapsed time: 0:01:12

another way
I've just used the time program (which is present in all the linux distros I've seen so far). The usage is quite simple, ie:
time (
It'll print out a nice (and configurable) info about the elapsed time doing the something stuff.
real 0m13.109s
user 0m7.772s
sys 0m0.772s
It looks so simple when you
It looks so simple when you put it that way :{) !
Indents are purty
I always indent, its easier to read & spot bad syntax?
Maybe im doing it wrong.
& Thanks Mitch, thats handy!
Why go to all that trouble?
I don't see a problem with using "time". It doesn't work quite as expected, but it can be made to work:
time echo $( # code to be timed goes here )
And if you want time's output to go to a log, redirect stderr:
( time echo $( # code to be timed goes here ) ) 2>logfile
You could redirect the stderr of commands inside the block of code somewhere else, e.g. to another logfile.
Works Best for LISP Programmers
That'll work, but it gets a bit harry if you want to also time sub-parts of the part you're timing:
time echo $( # code to be timed goes here time echo $( # code to be timed goes here time echo $( # code to be timed goes here time echo $( # code to be timed goes here ) ) ) )

Indents. How we laughed.
Unnecessary in bash.
So, you agree then?

Practical Task Scheduling Deployment

One of the best things about the UNIX environment (aside from being stable and efficient) is the vast array of software tools available to help you do your job. Traditionally, a UNIX tool does only one thing, but does that one thing very well. For example, grep is very easy to use and can search vast amounts of data quickly. The find tool can find a particular file or files based on all kinds of criteria. It's pretty easy to string these tools together to build even more powerful tools, such as a tool that finds all of the .log files in the /home directory and searches each one for a particular entry. This erector-set mentality allows UNIX system administrators to seem to always have the right tool for the job.
Cron traditionally has been considered another such a tool for job scheduling, but is it enough? This webinar considers that very question. The first part builds on a previous Geek Guide, Beyond Cron, and briefly describes how to know when it might be time to consider upgrading your job scheduling infrastructure. The second part presents an actual planning and implementation framework.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

Grammar gives Republicans trouble
Published: Tuesday, January 16, 2007 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, January 16, 2007 at 12:00 a.m.
To The Editor: Good or well? Adjective or adverb? The two are not interchangeable, being as different as chalk and cheese. "Well" (adverb) refers to physical health, "good" (adjective) to well-being.
If you have won the lottery but have shingles, you probably feel (very) "good" but not "well," conversely, if you've passed your physical examination with flying colors but have lost your job, you feel "well" but not "good."
Similar confusion attends feeling "bad" or "badly." Ninety-nine point nine percent of the time one feels "bad;" to feel "badly" one's hands would have to be abraded or badly burned.
Most Republicans including G. Bush have problems with English grammar, demonstrated by their consistently mistaking a noun "Democrat" Party for the adjective "Democratic."
Regarding adjectives being stronger than adverbs, that is pure hokum. Perhaps because adjectives are invariably shorter than adverbs, they may appear more emphatic. English has strong and weak verbs but nothing else.
On the same page was a typical Cal Thomas diatribe containing historical errors. He refers to Saddam's murdering a son-in-law; there were two. And the 30-day execution period followed the appeal, not the verdict.

YORK, Pa., Nov. 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- AT&T* has turned on its 4G LTE network in York, bringing customers the latest generation of wireless network technology. Watch here to see several of the benefits AT&T 4G LTE provides, including:
- Faster speeds. LTE technology is capable of delivering mobile Internet speeds up to 10 times faster than 3G. Customers can stream, download, upload and game faster than ever before.
- Cool new devices. AT&T offers several LTE-compatible devices, including new AT&T 4G LTE smartphones and tablets, such as the Sony Xperia™ TL, LG Optimus G™, Samsung Galaxy S III, Motorola ATRIX ™ HD, HTC One™ X, Nokia Lumia 900, Samsung Galaxy Note™, and Pantech Element™ tablet.
- Faster response time. LTE technology offers lower latency, or the processing time it takes to move data through a network, such as how long it takes to start downloading a webpage or file once you've sent the request. Lower latency helps to improve services like mobile gaming, two-way video calling and telemedicine.
- More efficient use of spectrum. Wireless spectrum is a finite resource, and LTE uses spectrum more efficiently than other technologies, creating more space to carry data traffic and services and to deliver a better network experience.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120612/DA23287LOGO)
"We continue to see demand for mobile Internet skyrocket, and our 4G LTE network in York responds to what customers want from their mobile experience — more, faster, on the best devices," said J. Michael Schweder, president, AT&T Mid-Atlantic.
AT&T's 4G Network
AT&T's innovation and investment has resulted in the nation's largest 4G network, covering more than 285 million people with ultra-fast speeds and a more consistent user experience. That's coverage in 3,000 more 4G cities and towns than Verizon. Our 4G LTE network delivered faster average download speeds than any of our competitors in PCWorld's most recent 13-market speed tests.
AT&T's 4G LTE network delivers speeds up to 10 times faster than 3G** as well as multiple innovations that optimize the network for performance. Our network's radio components are placed close to the antenna at most cell sites, instead of inside the base station, which helps minimize power loss between the base station and antenna and, in turn, improves the performance of our 4G LTE network. The network also is designed with its core elements distributed across the country, which helps reduce latency, or the delay when using the Internet, because your request isn't traveling as far.
Even as AT&T continues to expand its 4G LTE coverage in 2012 and 2013, customers can get 4G speeds outside of 4G LTE areas on our 4G HSPA+ network, unlike competitors, where smartphone customers fall back to slower 3G technologies when outside of LTE coverage.
AT&T's focus to deliver the best possible mobile Internet experience goes beyond 4G to embrace additional connection technologies. AT&T operates the nation's largest Wi-Fi network*** including more than 31,000 AT&T Wi-Fi Hot Spots at popular restaurants, hotels, bookstores and retailers across the country. Most AT&T smartphone customers get access to our entire national Wi-Fi network at no additional cost, and Wi-Fi usage doesn't count against customers' monthly wireless data plans.
AT&T also is a leading developer of Distributed Antenna Systems, which utilize multiple small antennas to maximize coverage and speed within stadiums, convention centers, office buildings, hotels and other areas where traditional coverage methods are challenging.
Over the past five years, AT&T invested more than $115 billion into operations and into acquiring spectrum and other assets that have enhanced our wireless and wired networks. Since 2007, AT&T has invested more capital into the U.S. economy than any other public company. In a July 2012 report, the Progressive Policy Institute ranked AT&T No. 1 on its list of U.S. "Investment Heroes."

2005 BMW 7 Series 760Li 4dr Sedan (6.0L 12cyl 6A)
The 760Li is a fabulous performance luxury sedan in every way. The power, handling and comfort exceeds any vehicle have ever driven. I have driven many. The fuel efficiency is extraordinary on the highway and poor in the city. The only problem that I have had in approximately 1 year of driving are some quirky electronics issues. The dealer did a good job of taking care of these issues with a minimum of inconvenience. I highly recommend this V12 for someone looking for something above and beyond.
Comfort, power on demand, handling, quality feel.
Simplify the electronics. Fuel efficiency in city needs improvement.
head turner when they see the v-12 on the side.Was orginally worried about the i-drive but mastered in a few days.Great driving experience and real feeling of safety on the road..
sound system
more comfortable seats. A little stiff but should break in over time.
nice looking, wonderful to drive,
comfortable, the the interior design
and controls are from bad to awful.
the dashborad displays are too small
for me to see with out my glasses but i
do not need glasses for driving so it
is a problem. the i control for sound
system and heating is too complicated
to remember and use while driving. the
electonic park neutral drive reverse is
downright dangerous as you can open the
door and get out without realizing it
is not in park
all the controls
The ultimate luxury car for the
ultimate car lover. Beautiful and
elegance along with fun adventurous
driving. BEST BUY
It is a beutiful and refined car. I may
be a gas guzzler but for anyone who can
afford a $100,000 + car it should be no
problem. It handles great, accelerates
great and it has a V-12. The inside is
spacious and comfortable. the outside
it beutiful and sporty.
the integrated cell phone, the I-Drive
comnputer system, 6 disk cd changer,
the automatic open-close trunk, and the
pull shut doors (doors pull shut if you
did not close the door right), and
finally the r refrigerated compartment.
I t is a great car and I think that you
should never change a good thing.

" « 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 » "
But I do not know what I have concrete to change.
I suspect it is in dmsguestbook.php what could you give me the code for it? This would be really nice.
And another question: Do you have some different designs /templates for it? It would be nice if you could collect them downloaded centrally maybe.
