Milwaukee Pius rallies late to edge Greenfield, 27-17
The second half belonged to Milwaukee Pius.
The Popes football team scored three touchdowns in the final 14 minutes to rally for a 27-17 victory over Greenfield at Wisconsin Lutheran College Stadium Thursday that probably sealed a playoff berth. Pius finished the regular season 5-4 overall and 3-3 in the Woodland. A .500 conference record puts the Popes in good position to qualify for the postseason.
Quarterback Joe Blando had a hand in all four Pius touchdowns. He threw a 78-yard pass to Christian Garcia in the first half and had a 12-yard toss to James Arnold with 6 minutes 36 seconds left in the game to give the Popes the lead for good.
Blando completed 19 of 27 passes for 292 yards and had a team-high 56 rushing yards.
Brookfield Academy 66, St. John's Northwestern 20: Knights quarterback Spencer Francis completed 19 of 30 passes for 385 yards and four touchdowns.
Menomonie, Mich 62, Milwaukee Madison 12: Damian Lee scored twice in the loss for Madison.
Regional finals
Brookfield East 1, Brookfield Central 0: Michael Lesar scored the game's only goal off a Henry Raymonds pass at 7:29.
Oak Creek 2, Racine Case 1: Jake West scored the winner in the 71st minute off a pass from Eddie Paez.
Kettle Moraine 4, Mukwonago 1: John Schwalbach scored in both halves for the Lasers.
Slinger 2, De Pere 1: Seth Sedlar scored twice in the first half to lead the Owls on the road.
Wauwatosa East 2, Milwaukee Pius 1: Ben Prange scored in the first half, and Agu Ibanez-Baldor scored in the second to lead the Red Raiders at home.
Grafton 2, Sheboygan Falls 1: Adam Huibregtse and Tyler Howard scored in the second half for the Black Hawks.
University School 4, Kettle Moraine Lutheran 0: Isaac Schlenker had three second-half goals for the Wildcats.
St.Anthony 6, Brookfield Academy 1: Jose Flores had two goals and an assist for the Roman Legion.

Linux Odyssey 2010 - Logging Software
With the ARRL Field Day just around the corner, I decided, in the spirit of my own Linux Odyssey that I should find and use a new logging program. It is the search for this program that prompted these thoughts.
If you are not familiar with Field Day, the objective, from the League's site:
To work as many stations as possible on any and all amateur bands (excluding the 60, 30, 17, and 12-meter bands) and to learn to operate in abnormal situations in less than optimal conditions. Field Day is open to all amateurs in the areas covered by the ARRL/RAC Field Organizations and countries within IARU Region 2. DX stations residing in other regions may be contacted for credit, but are not eligible to submit entries.
It is a chance for Amateur Radio operators to get out and operate, to practice our skills and give the general public a chance to see what we do. And for many Amateurs, it is a chance to operate and rack up as many Qs (short for QSOs or contacts) as possible. In order to figure out who you have talked to, on what bands and in what modes and the associated multipliers, you need to record these details, rapidly, correctly, and accurately. It is 24 hours of frenetic activity followed by several days of sifting, sorting, and filling in the paperwork to record the score and submit it to the League. Field Day is not the only contest that Amateurs participate in, although it could be argued that it is the biggest, so you would think there would be several packages out there, created by frustrated individuals, for making all this minutia easy to capture. And you would be…well…wrong. Oh, there are a number of packages, but there are only a couple that are the go to packages and oddly, ones that are purely Open Source, are frankly, lacking: in features, in cleanness, in usability. So, I started asking around and came up with some requirements for a new logging program, based in Open Source and able to do what needs to be done.
As a reference, let me start with the software I have used previously to log, and that worked extremely well for Prince William County ARES when we participated a couple of years ago as a 2F station. With two operational stations, one Get On The Air station and a VHF/UHF station, we needed a logging solution that could be networked (as all Field Day teams need if there are more than one station operating) and we used N3FJP's Field Day logging software, network version. The software is Windows-based, written well enough to run even on Windows 7 (a statement for software written in early 2000), and has a clean interface. Now I could have used N1MM's software, which I hear is also good, or others, but we used Scott's because that is what we had.
But this is just a starting point. As anyone who has used these packages can tell you, you need to make sure you back up the single log file to prevent corruptions from creeping in (the programs write to a shared file on one of the machines using Windows peer-to-peer networking) and wiping out all your work and the reporting mechanisms are, well, less than robust. So if I had the time and energy to write my own logging program, here is what I would like to see.
Firstly, I think it would need to have a robust database. Personally I would like something in a relational database although I am sure someone could implement it with an embedded database. I am also leaning towards a relational database for the ability to do the necessary reporting and submission. Many contests want the logs submitted in a couple of accepted, standard forms, but those forms can and do change over time, and if the ability to dump data is flexible, then it makes the program more valuable along the way. It also will allow the user to populate the database with changes that occur to modifiers and multipliers over time, again facilitating easy calculations at the end of the contest. If you have ever been responsible for compiling the submissions for Field Day, you will already be thinking and I could insert links for media hits, pictures for the website…. You are getting ahead of me. But yes, that too.
Secondly, it has to be fully networkable. Since we are talking about running it on Linux, we certainly do not need a dedicated server. The real question is do we make it a client-server application or an n-tier application? My initial preference is a full on LAMP (Linux/Apache or some other web server/MySQL or similar database/Perl, Python or other scripting or CGI engine) solution. To me, it would be more straightforward to write, but I am willing to be talked out of that for a good user interface in a client-server model.
Third, it has to be quick. As I said, Field Day is frenetic, with contacts slamming in sometimes as fast as the operator can enter the other station's call, class, and section. I have witnessed as many as 15 Qs a minute per station. While not high from a transaction standpoint (after all I have pushed MySQL to thousands of transactions a second), the ease of inputting the data, checking it for duplicates and accuracy, especially for section information, is vital before the transaction is written to the database as a saved record. This is a delicate ballet between reads and writes and error correction.
Finally, it has to be easy to use, both during execution by the end-user as well as during the installation process. Software that is not easy to use is not going to be used, and people will get frustrated. Frustration on Field Day is not a pretty sight.
Now, here is one of the reasons I think an Open Source package would be better for Field Day (or other contest logging) than the existing packages, especially a LAMP implementation: anyone could interface with it. Suppose you have a handful of machines of various operating systems. If you have worked Field Day you know that is the case. So a flexible logging system would mean everyone could play, rather than having to match one operating system or flavor of operating system. To me, that would be a huge win.
Are there other things to put into the system? Sure. Real time statistics, such as by band, mode, and operator are always good for bragging rights during the event. The ability to add in other things that are needed for Field Day scoring, such as being able to integrate pictures and media links and the ability to then turn around and output data for the club web site are only some of the things you could add in. But I think this is a good start.
Good luck to everyone on Field Day 2010. I hope to hear you on the air. And if you decide to build this, let me know: I will be happy to test it and shamelessly promote it.

FD software
I like software that can save the overall database to a server BUT will also work if the network breaks, so that station can go on logging during that outage. Naturally, the ability to control a rig's keying from the software is essential in CW.
Perfect -- LAMP + Ham Radio Logger
This would be exactly what I would want.
Interface if possible with other freeware like
Hamscope for automatic logging.
phphamlog does all of this using "LAMP"
This looks like it is already done.
Phphamlog looks like a full blown "LAMP" application.

It helps me to know about this. You have been shown importance of this topic. It will be inspired me always. This is very nice post! I will bookmark this blog. More over the valid information about Linux Odyssey 2010 - Logging Software is great here.investing in leeds.
Exactly what I was thinking.
I don't have the programming experience for this but this is exactly what I would like to used.
Wants in a contest/general logger for Linux.
1) Portable interface to log contacts, capture frequency from the radio etc. - Must work with Linux, Mac, and Windows.
1a) - Run from a bootable CDROM or thumb drive. Who really wants everyone to be able to look at the files on their PC if you loan it to the club for Field Day. Plus the host OS matters not.
2) Database - can be simple, no need for a full out database. I like how N1MM maintains a full DB on each PC even when networked. That way when a PC locks up it can be reset and pull the database from another.
3) Mimic current application shortcuts and keys. Don't reinvent the wheel or make usage difficult by changing everything.
4) Portable flat file for new contests. Make adding or changing contest rules easy. N3JFP for example requires a new build when the rules change.
5) Automate log submissions. Send to eqsl, LOTW, Party host with the right cabrillo format.
6) Integrate into good digital applications for digital modes.
7) Be segmented. If I never operate PSK31, I should not have to add the psk31 tools. If I like spotting I can add that tool.
8) Multiple monitor support.
i could try to develope a web
i could try to develope a web app to help out.
i would need a list of all the variables(which one is input, which ones to output).
im not very familliar with HAM radio, but have been to enough of the HAMFests to know a little about what is going on(DAYTON ROCKS!!!...hehe...they totally jousted crappy Macs on golf carts...).
hope this helps.

Practical Task Scheduling Deployment
July 20, 2016 12:00 pm CDT
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

Ramphastos sulfuratus occurs from South Mexico to North Colombia and Northeast Venezuela (Kricher 1989).
Biogeographic Regions: neotropical (Native )
Physical Description
Ramphastos sulfuratus is a large (about 20 inches or 52 cm long) colorful bird, and has a bill that can grow to be up to one third the size of its body (Enchantedlearning, 1999). The large banana-shaped bill is the most distinguishing feature of R. sulferatus, and is surprisingly lightweight for its size (Kricher, 1989). The light weight of the keratin-composed bill is due to its hollow, bone-reinforced construction (Kricher, 1989; Enchantedlearning, 1999; Thurman, 1999). The bill is edged with tooth-like ridges. Housed within the bill is a long, narrow, feather-like tongue. The body of R. sulfuratus is black, and it has a bright yellow bib and cheeks. Its rump is white, and the undertail coverts are a brilliant red. The area directly around the eyes is bare, showing the pale blue skin underneath. Its bill, which takes up the entire front of its head, is green, with a bright orange blaze on the side, red on the tip of the upper mandible, and blue on the tip of the lower mandible. Males and females share the same coloration and large bill, the only difference being that the male is slightly larger than the female. Ramphastos sulfuratus has blue legs and its toes are arranged in the zygodactyl pattern (with two toes forward and two toes back)(Kricher, 1989; Greer, 1993; Beletsky, 1998). Its tail is long and square-shaped, and its wings are wide and short to enable flight through trees (Beletsky, 1998).
Ramphastos sulfuratus is one of the larger species of toucans, weighing about 400 grams. There are several species of toucan, distinguished mainly by beak size, body size and body coloring. The behavioral characteristics of all toucan species are largely similar (Emerald Forest).
Average mass: 400 g.
Other Physical Features: endothermic ; bilateral symmetry
Ramphastos sulfuratus lives in lowland forests and on forest borders (Kricher, 1989; Belize, 2000).
Terrestrial Biomes: forest ; rainforest ; scrub forest
Habitat and Ecology
- Terrestrial
Trophic Strategy
The diet of R. sulfuratus consists primarily of fruit, but it will also consume the eggs or fledglings of other birds, insects, small lizards and tree frogs. By eating these non-fruit items, R. sulfuratus increases its protein intake. This toucan travels in flocks of 6 to 12, eating fruit as it goes. Eating the fruit whole by snapping its head back and gulping down, R. sulfuratus can regurgitate large seeds unharmed. Small seeds are passed through the bird's digestive tract, also unharmed. In this way, the seeds are dispersed far from the parent plant. Although the function of the bill of R. sulfuratus is not fully understood, it does make a very good tool for plucking fruit off branches that are too small to bear the weight of the bird (Kricher, 1987; Remsen, 1993; Beletsky, 1998; Enchantedlearning, 1999).
Ramphastos sulfuratus is spotted feeding mainly in high canopy, and will only fly down occasionally to feed on shrubs or to snatch a reptilian food item from the forest floor (Beletsky, 1998).
The Chestnut-mandibled Toucan may sometimes 'parasitize' R. sulfuratus by following R. sulfuratus to a fruit-filled tree, and then chasing the smaller bird (R. sulfuratus) away (Beletsky, 1998).
Animal Foods: reptiles
Plant Foods: fruit
Primary Diet: herbivore (Frugivore )
Life History and Behavior
Perception Channels: visual ; tactile ; acoustic ; chemical
Ramphastos sulfuratus nests in natural or wood-pecker made tree cavities and lays clutches of 2 to 4 white glossy eggs. They can have up to 2 or 3 broods in a year. Both parents share the responsibility of incubating the eggs and feeding the chicks once they hatch. The altricial chicks hatch after 16 to 20 days of incubation. They remain in the nest for 8 to 9 weeks so that their beaks may fully form (Kricher, 1989; Enchantedlearning, 1999).
Ramphastos sulfuratus is apparently monogamous. Sometimes a mated pair will defend a fruit tree from other toucans and other frugivorous birds. They defend the tree by threat displays and sometimes, if the other bird is also a toucan, by bill clashes (Beletsky, 1998).
The brightly colored bill of R. sulfuratus probably does not have a great deal to do with mate selection, as both male and females share the same large beak and the same bright coloration. The coloration is probably more of a camouflage in the brightly colored tropical regions where R. sulfuratus resides (Kricher, 1989; Beletsky, 1998).
Breeding interval: They can have up to 2 or 3 broods in a year.
Range eggs per season: 2 to 4.
Range time to hatching: 16 to 20 days.
Range fledging age: 8 to 9 weeks.
Key Reproductive Features: iteroparous ; year-round breeding ; gonochoric/gonochoristic/dioecious (sexes separate); sexual ; oviparous

Conservation Status
Ramphastos sulfuratus is not immediately threatened, but it is CITES listed, because it is considered to be a look-alike of threatened species, and therefore needs to be monitored. The species is a common resident in areas where it occurs (its range), except where there is heavy deforestation. There are some areas where R. sulfuratus is locally scarce due to hunting (to eat or/and for ornaments). Toucan feathers have been used as ornaments for a long time (Beletsky, 1998).
Ramphastos sulfuratus, like many other species of toucan, is a popular pet, due to its brightly colored bill and its intelligence. At one time, animals were taken from the wild and kept as pets. Now, there are organizations, which specialize in hand-rearing R. sulfuratus for the pet market (or parent-rearing for use in other breeding programs), so this factor does not have as great effect on the conservation status as in the past (Beletsky, 1998; Emerald Forest).
In some areas of Belize, Guatemala, and Costa Rica, R. sulfuratus is allowed to fly loose around people's homes, free to come and go as it pleases (Emerald Forest).

Relevance to Humans and Ecosystems
The Keel-billed Toucan is the national bird of Belize. It is responsible for bringing in much of the tourism there (Belize, 2000; Greer, 1993).
Humans have, as mentioned above, hunted R. sulfuratus for meat, and sport (keeping the feathers as ornamentation). They have also captured this species for the pet market (Beletsky, 1998).
Also, 'Toucan Sam', the cartoon used to advertise Fruit Loops cereal is sometimes identified (incorrectly) as a Keel-billed (Emerald Forest).

Keel-billed toucan
The keel-billed toucan (Ramphastos sulfuratus), also known as sulfur-breasted toucan or rainbow-billed toucan, is a colorful Latin American member of the toucan family. It is the national bird of Belize.[2]
Including its bill, the keel-billed toucan ranges in length from around 42 to 55 cm (17 to 22 in).[3] Their large and colorful bill averages around 12–15 cm (4.7–5.9 in), about one-third of its length. It typically weighs about 380–500 g (13–18 oz).[4] While the bill seems large and cumbersome, it is in fact a spongy, hollow bone covered in keratin, a very light and hard protein.
The plumage of the keel-billed toucan is mainly black with a yellow neck and chest. Molting occurs once per year.[5] It has blue feet and red feathers at the tip of its tail. The bill is mainly green with a red tip and orange sides.
Keel-billed toucans have zygodactyl feet (or feet with toes facing in different directions) – two toes face forward and two face back. Because toucans spend a large portion of time in the trees, this helps the birds to stay on the branches of the trees and jump from one branch to another.
Distribution and ecology[edit]
The keel-billed toucan can be found from Southern Mexico to Venezuela and Colombia. It roosts in the canopies of tropical, subtropical, and lowland rainforests, up to altitudes of 1,900 m (6,200 ft).[6] It roosts in holes in trees,[5] often with several other toucans. This can be very cramped, so the birds tuck their tails and beaks under their bodies to conserve space while sleeping. Adding to the lack of space, the bottoms of the holes are often covered with pits from the fruit the toucans have eaten.[5]
Like many toucans, keel-billed toucans are very social birds, rarely seen alone. It travels in small flocks of approximately six to twelve individuals through lowland rainforests; it is a poor flyer, and moves mostly by hopping through trees. It has a family structure within the group. Birds will often "duel" with each other using their bills, and throw fruit into each other's mouths. Keel-billed toucans live together in these groups, often sharing cramped living quarters of holes in trees. Able to utilize human-altered habitat to some extent,[7] this widespread bird is considered to be a Species of Least Concern by the IUCN.[1] However, they are still threatened by hunting for their meat and beaks, and toucan populations are on a decreasing trend.
Food and feeding[edit]
The diet of keel-billed toucans consists mostly of a wide range of fruit,[8] but may also include insects, eggs, nestlings and lizards, as well as small birds. The bill, surprisingly dexterous, allows this toucan to utilize a large variety of fruit that might not otherwise be reached. When eating the fruit, it uses its bill to dissect the fruit, and then tosses its head back to swallow the fruit whole.
The female keel-billed toucan will lay 1–4 white eggs in a natural or already-made tree cavity.[9] The male and female share in the caring of the eggs, both taking turns incubating.[5] The eggs hatch approximately 15–20 days after being laid. After hatching, the male and female again take turns feeding the chicks. When the chicks hatch, they have no feathers, and have their eyes closed for approximately 3 weeks. The chicks have adequately formed heel pads, which assist on the pit-covered bottom of the nest.[5] The chicks stay in their nest for approximately eight to nine weeks while their bills develop fully and they are ready to fledge from the nest.

The keel-billed toucan is sometimes kept in captivity, but has a high fruit diet and is sensitive to hemochromatosis (an iron storage disease).[10]

Labor market conditions and the reemployment of displaced workers
The authors of this study use data from the January 1984 Current Population Survey to examine the impact of local labor market conditions on the financial losses of displaced manufacturing workers. They find that strong overall growth in the local economy reduced the economic losses of white-collar workers whose industry of displacement was declining, but not of blue-collar workers in the same situation. Most older, poorly educated blue-collar workers with long tenure at their pre-layoff job suffered large financial losses even when displaced in a growing local economy. All workers, including those who were young and well-educated, suffered large financial losses when located in a depressed local economy. (Abstract courtesy JSTOR.)

To be honest this new style you use for her face needs a bit of getting used to, but I'm definitely staying tuned.

very cool,nicely done.
She most certainly does.
the name of the picture tells it all !!
Sokka would approve of the joke. XD
I love how you drew her, your style is so cool!
Everything is fine except for the face. The eyes nose and mouth look too small for the face. There is a large area that's supposed to be chin. It doesn't look right to me. Great anatomy and shading though.
She rocks......flows and burns, too bad she can't blow.
Yup. its pretty ill. I've been workin on a Korra piece too. Started it like 3 weeks ago and haven't been able to finish it.
Yeah this looks fresh, I dig it.

Haha, what about the fact that part of her... skirt-thing, can't tell what it is, is sticking straight out before falling (where I assume Naga's saddle, or back, would let it fall)? xD Rock uses floating-jutsu!
Great work!!! A reminder wild grinders is up today love to some that !!!!
seems everyone likes the show^^
Yes! At first I wondered how everyone would think of it. I mean, it's like swapping out old lovable characters for completely new ones. You can just do it.. But, it happened, and it's worked out perfectly!

Love Korra. And LOVE your take on her.

5 Weight-Loss Tips and Habits That Don't Work (Page 6)
5. Selecting Foods Labeled Low-Fat
Foods labeled low-fat sound healthier (and sometimes they are), but they could make you eat more food—and as a result, more calories—than you intended. When people were served a lunch labeled low-fat, they consumed more calories than when they had the exact same meal without the label, says a study from Appetite. In another study from the same journal, female college students significantly underestimated the calorie content of chocolate candy labeled low-fat. Although, low-fat products contain less fat, they sometimes deliver the same number of calories as the original version. If you do choose foods labeled low-fat, be aware of this "health halo" and mind your portions.

Posted Jun 10 2011 1:29AM
DALLAS -- Five years ago the franchise whooped it up inside the American Airlines Center after cinching the championship and they exited the building with a strut. This time, they left in a rut.
You didn't need to see the slumped shoulders, the pained grimaces or feel the somber mood Thursday to know the Heat's trip to Big D was just shy of a Big D-zaster. Unmitigated. Unquestioned. And unfulfilled.
Sure, they took a game, one out of three. And yet: They blew leads, gagged on golden opportunities, failed to jump on a Dirk Nowitzki illness and couldn't seize control of an NBA Finals that all but begged for a Miami takeover. Now they go home after losing Game 5 wondering about injuries to Dwyane Wade's hip, LeBron James' reputation and their own collective mental state.
"The good thing about life and this game," Wade said, "is we get another opportunity."
It is Mavericks three games, Heat two, although the series scoreboard doesn't go far enough to describe the dire situation the Heat find themselves in. No, you must delve deeper than that and examine the symptoms that are working against the Heat as they attempt to win two straight on their home floor.
Wade needs to borrow someone's healthy hip (Shakira's?) over the next 48 hours. After being body-checked in the first quarter by Mavericks sub Brian Cardinal, who cemented his biggest contribution to the series, Wade left the game and upon returning was never the same down the finish as he was the previous two games. Once again, the durability of Wade's body has become an issue, and you wonder if he can hold up through the intensity of two more fourth quarters, which Miami will need to win.
"I'll be fine Sunday," he vowed. "I'll be good for Game 6."
In "the biggest game of my life," James notched a Game 5 triple-double although once again his fourth quarter was uneventful. He had two badly missed shots, was called for charging and played poor defense against Jason Terry on a play that led to a Jason Kidd killer 3-pointer. Plus, he has missed 10 of his last 11 shots from 3-point range and his confidence from long distance seems shot.
Finally, the Heat's defense showed signs of wearing down for the first time all postseason. The Mavericks shot 56 percent Thursday, broke 100 easily and had almost six players in double-figures.
"We protect home court, we win the series," said Chris Bosh, and true enough, the Heat's only home loss in the postseason came when they gift-wrapped Game 2 to Dallas. But they must beat the Mavericks two straight, and based on what we've seen the last week, that won't be a layup.
|Hollow accomplishment?
|LeBron James is the fifth player in last 25 years to record a triple-double in a Finals game ... and have his team lose the game, too.
|* = Only Bird went on to win the series
What must change for Miami? Well, apparently there's nothing the Heat can do against Nowitzki, who scored 29 points Thursday and hasn't let a bad finger, a sinus infection or any defense thrown his way affect him. So it's a matter of silencing Terry, who has his swagger back with 38 points the last two games after scoring zero fourth-quarter points in the two Miami wins. And making sure J.J. Barea (17 points) was a one-hit wonder in the Finals.
It's also too bad the Heat need James (10 assists) to assume a chunk of the point guard duties. Neither Mike Bibby nor Mario Chalmers are trustworthy enough with the ball, and so James is forced to play more on the perimeter and away from the basket. The post-up is the weakest part of his game, although being closer to the rim puts him closer to the action. Too often, James is caught standing in the corner or above the key.
And obviously, Wade must have more in his tank. He's the most important player on the floor after Nowitzki, and in this series he's been the Heat's heart and soul in the fourth quarter. Like James, Wade exerts so much energy on both ends of the floor and can't really afford to have a poor game or sit on the bench for long spells. By the time the fourth quarter arrives, you wonder how fresh Wade will be for Game 6 (and if necessary, Game 7), given his hip issue, which he insists won't be an issue.
"We'll be coming into (Game 6) understanding it's a (last) possession game," Wade said. "We'll be doing whatever it takes to win the ballgame. So we're confident."
The most curious sight Thursday night was the way Wade left the court. It was a complete reversal from 2006, when he almost single-handedly punished the Mavericks and denied Nowitzki in his house. The Heat won that championship and Wade was officially anointed one of the game's greatest players. It was a moment to savor, whereas this return trip to Dallas was a moment for forget.
"It's unfortunate," Wade said.
The Heat have two games to figure it out. They celebrated last summer in their building before they played a game when the Big Three was officially welcomed to Miami with a party that rubbed the basketball world the wrong way.
They can still give themselves a reason to hold a show filled with smoke and lasers. But what James tweeted before Game 5 is ever so prophetic today:
It's now or never.
"At this point," James said, "we have no choice."

This list details the changes made from WordPress 184.108.40.206 to 1.5.2. I tried to take the developer-speak out of the descriptions, but some items are inherently code-related. I produced this list by reading the changelog on WordPress' development system, and reading the changes in the code (not just the descriptions of the tickets that were fixed) for each change.
- WordPress now escapes special characters for insertion in the database for values submitted via XML-RPC (via programs like ecto).
- Posts submitted via XML-RPC should now appear in only the specified categories. (Hopefully fixes issues with categories submitted via ecto.)
- Posts submitted via XML-RPC now properly detect whether the URLs in the post have been previously pinged.
- Referenced to a defunct variable previously used to contain the default post category have been replaced with a proper check of stored options.
- Added code to prevent exploits on servers that have PHP's "register_globals" setting enabled.
- The word "Name:" on the Upgrade tab is now available for translation in international versions.
- Depricated references to old comment table variables have been removed.
- Pingbacks correctly return an error when the source of the ping does not include a link to the pinged page.
- When posts are posted by XML-RPC, the publish_post and edit-post plugin hooks are appropriately fired.
- The Pages editor now includes a "Save and Continue" button, just like the Posts page.
- Five new plugin hooks were added to allow customization of the comment moderation and notification emails. (comment_notification_text, comment_notification_subject, comment_notification_headers, comment_moderation_text, comment_moderation_subject)
- Trackbacks, Pings, and Enclosure detections now occur in a different place, so the delay while saving a post should be significantly reduced.
- When users are added via tha admin panel, the user_register hook is triggered, just like when users register themselves from the registration form.
- A plugin hook now fires when a category is deleted or added. (add_category, delete_category)
- The category list can now be made to exclude categories using a new plugin hook. (list_cats_exclusions)
- The comments feed for a whole site now includes the post titles with each comment for easy indexing.
If you're more interested in specific details of what was changed than this overview, please look at the Trac changelog, which is the scary hive of code and dev-speak that I have interpreted for you here.

Clearly, I have a profile on wordpress.org, it's "haltseven." However after logging on to w.org to create a forum post, when I click on the "view your profile" link at the top of the page, I go to a page with an error message that says "user not found" from bbpress.org.
I had hoped I could follow posts I'd made via my profile. Any ideas why I apparently don't have a profile and how I can fix this?

MFC Constitution (Updated May 2014)
One of the core values of Amherst College is tolerance and understanding. In the spirit of these values, The Multifaith Council will create programs which strengthen the sense of mutual understanding between students of different religious affiliations. It will work alongside the Office of Religious Life to amplify the message that learning about other religions in a respectful way is an important part of an Amherst education.
Club Structure
The structure of the Multifaith Council will minimize the presence of a formal hierarchy, which could create tensions within the organization. However, it will have at the very least a small executive committee comprised of a President, Vice President, and Staff Advisor, or alternatively two co-Presidents and a Staff Advisor. The Staff Advisor will be a member of the Religious Life Staff or the Department of Religion at Amherst. Should the Staff Advisor be unable to continue in his/her post, the club can nominate and vote upon an alternative Staff/Faculty Advisor based on "majority rule." In this way, the Multifaith Council will minimize the presence of politics on its board, yet maintain a sufficient number of "point people" for the purposes of acquiring funds and attending official discussions for club leaders at Amherst.
Elections for the post of President, co-President, and/or Vice President must take place at the end of every Fall semester and if any of the aforementioned club officers steps down. Anonymous voting, either via ballot or another agreed upon method, will take place after all candidates have the chance to present themselves and explain why they believe they are a suitable choice for the given post. Each candidate should take no more than 5 minutes, unless the group decides otherwise based on "majority rule." After elected, the officers will serve for one year and may be re-elected for a second term. Following two terms, preference should be given to other interested candidates, unless none express an interest in becoming an officer.
A President, co-President, and/or Vice President May
-Call for Multifaith Council meetings
-Meet on behalf of the Multifaith Council with other faculty, staff, and students at Amherst College
-Compile a list of proposed activities for the semester
-Oversee activities to ensure they are completed according to plans agreed upon by the entire club
The Staff Advisor May
-Provide advice and ideas to the student members of the Multifaith Council
-Overturn vetoes on specific programs (see below)
-Lead and facilitate optional training sessions for members of the Multifaith Council-Lead evaluations of activities to determine the pros and cons of any given event
Deciding Upon Club Activities
All proposed club activities will be presented to the entire club and voted upon by all present members (or via e-mail in absentia). While a simple "majority rule" will be used to choose between available club activities in most circumstances, activities which appear to be potentially offensive can be vetoed by any two or more club members and only overturned by the Staff Advisor. This is because the primary goal of the Multifaith Council is to improve relations between members of different religious groups. Though differences of taste will certainly arise, any legitimate concern that a program may run counter to the aim of religious tolerance on campus is cause enough to forego a proposed activity.
The Multifaith Council is an inter-religious organization set on improving relations between religious groups represented at Amherst College. The Multifaith Council hopes to increase opportunities for students to learn about one another's religions and to promote public service activities as part of our shared commitment to bettering our community. Its ultimate goal is to foster the mutual respect and learning experiences which Amherst prides itself on.

Izzo should stay at Michigan State
Updated: June 9, 2010, 3:33 PM ETBy Dick Vitale | ESPN.com
There's lots of talk involving the Cleveland Cavaliers' interest in Michigan State coach Tom Izzo. According to reports, an offer has made by Cavaliers owner and Spartan alum Dan Gilbert, estimated at five years and $6 million per season, plus use of a private jet.
Can you blame Gilbert for loving Izzo? We had Izzo at our Dickie V gala, and he was Mr. Popularity! He has such a special way with people. Izzo and his wife, Lupe, are as good as it gets.
I do have one question about this ...

Finally, only from Vivid Celeb, the full, complete, uncensored texts from The Golf Great's 11th named mistress, Joslyn James, re-enacted in full, hardcore detail for all golf fans and porn fans to see! You'll be treated to all the fine points of this elicit affair, in a level of detail never before revealed and in Tiger and Joslyn's own words! See the torrid love scenes played out as only Joslyn herself can, from her first-hand experience having sex with the voracious legend "four or five times a day ... even during tournaments!" You've seen the texts ... now see the sex. The 11th Hole ... as historical as winning the Grand Slam of Golf ... and much more sexy.
This alleged reenactment of the illicit affair between golfer Tiger Woods and adult actress Josyln James takes the reported actual text messages between the two, and with the lasciviousness of an E! True Hollywood Story, shows you the actual hardcore versions of the sex acts in which the two allegedly engaged. Played by several actors whose faces are obscured by limbs or shot in a way where you never see their faces, the multiple thespians who portray Tiger on the golf course or in the sack all do a pretty good job fucking Joslyn.
The sex scenes get harder as the text messages get more lewd, and there are plenty of POV blowjobs (Joslyn is an expert cocksucker), fingering of her ass and fucking. At one point, Joslyn brings in Krissy Lynn for a three-way, where their conversation preceding the scene is actually hotter than the actual sex. In one POV scene, Tiger puts his fingers in Joslyn's ass as he says, "It's my nine-iron baby," and when he fucks her asshole he warns, "Now don't shit baby." Whether this was the actual dialogue or added in during production, it's all pretty funny to hear.
Most of the explicit sex is expertly shot, and the final anal sex scene, shot mostly in reverse cowgirl style, really sizzles. A lengthy interview with Joslyn which has the effect of a tell-all novel finishes the production, along with a bit of masturbation.
An unusual entry in the annals of celebrity tapes, The 11th Hole delivers some solid sex within the context of a recreation of one of the world's biggest sex scandals. Since the actual girl involved in the scandal is doing the scenes, you have a very marketable title.

Hello,Can we include those Saints on the Roman Calendar that the Orthodox might not have on theirs (i.e., Saint John of the Cross, Teresa of Avila, etc.)?
Can you post the life of our Holy Mother St Dymphna?
Not to be insulting or dismissive, but this being an Orthodox Christian discussion forum, I'm not sure that would be such a good idea to post stories of men and women whom we Orthodox don't glorify as saints. Not my call to make, however (AFAIK).
You might start a parrallel thread on the Orthodox-Catholic forum.You might want to put ones like Josaphat Kuntsevych on the private forum.
I...want... to be wrong.
Hello,I was just going to ask that very question. Well, you know what they say about great minds ...

Jaruzelski sorry for 1968 invasionBreaking News
Speaking to Czech state television on the 37th anniversary of the crackdown, Jaruzelski, Polish defense minister at the time, said the invasion of another Warsaw Pact nation was "very painful for me."
"But, in 1968, I was the defense minister implementing a political decision, convinced that there were grounds for that on the basis of the information available to us then. Today, and naturally much earlier, I realized this decision had been incorrect, wrong, shameful. As I took part in implementing it, I am now offering my sincere apologies."
Soviet troops and soldiers from four communist bloc countries stormed into Czechoslovakia on August 21, 1968, to halt a liberalization movement led by Czech Communist party chief Alexander Dubcek, fearing they might provoke a wider pro-democracy push. Eighty people were killed.

"Today, an ancient world is vanishing right before our eyes: the age of giant animals.

text: I'm working on two separate websites for business partners - one is a home builder, and one is a realtor who sells the homes. The realtor isn't very likely to update his own site, so he wants the home listings that are updated on the home builder's site to automatically update on his site - basically I need to show the same page on two separate sites.
