Kevin Cady, Dad From Downey, Allegedly Drugs and Rapes Babysitter -- Who Wakes Up Mid-Assault
Update on Feb. 25, 2013: Cady says all charges have been dropped. He's suing the L.A. County Sheriff's Department for what he says was a frame-up.
Of all the creepy babysitting stories out there, this has to be the worst.
L.A. County Sheriff's investigators say that 53-year-old Downey resident Kevin Cady hired a 22-year-old female babysitter through an online service on January 11.
After she watched his kids for a while (who are reportedly minors), he came home early, detectives tell City News Service. That's when the nightmare began:

Cady allegedly offered the young woman a drink, which she accepted. Once she drank it, though, she starting feeling super drowsy.
Next thing she remembers, she was waking up to her employer raping her. Via the Norwalk Sheriff's Station:
She fled the location and called the Sheriff's Department. The suspect was detained, but was released pending further investigation and results of the toxicology report.
On February 15, 2012, a toxicology report showed the presence of a drug which is normally used in hospitals before surgical procedures, and causes drowsiness and memory loss, was found in the victim's system.
Sergeant Gary Harman tells the news wire that Cady likely had additional victims. "His M.O. was to find a babysitter over the Internet," he says. "If someone babysat for him and had a suspicious incident where they weren't really sure what happened, we want them to contact us.''
Anyone who might have had a similar encounter with Cady can call Sheriff's Detective Marquez at (562) 863-8711. Updates to come as we receive more information. A news conference is scheduled for 5 p.m.
Update: The sheriff lists Cady as living in the 14100 block of Bayside Drive, a nice tree-lined community near the 605.

Casy was arrested on Feb. 29 and booked for rape at the Norwalk Sheriff's Station. According to the news release on his arrest, "he remains in custody awaiting a preliminary hearing to determine if there is enough evidence to order him to stand trial."
So, yeah -- if you've ever been babysitter-raped by this guy, now's the time to come forward.

Stunning location near Killarney with spectacular views of the mountains--beautiful walks--lots of horses and their foals.
Very friendly and welcoming staff--valet parking and luggage handled with a smile. Luxury-standard room with a scenic balcony and nice toiletries/linen etc. Food for dinner was not a strong point--duck probably sous-vide and not the roast anticipated--familiar wines from Wines.ie overpriced. Sunday morning breakfast buffet on the other hand was excellent without the usual Irish fault of over-salted bacon/black pudding/sausages-eggs cooked to order a nice touch. Overall, a very favourable experience and we will be back.

1 B'n'M Black Widow Crappie Pole BW6 - 20'0" $$ 24.99 from landbigfish.com I like the website name...applies to QRP ops also!
This is a neoprene bicycle chain stay wrap used to protect the metal chain stay from nicks from the bicycle chain. Velcro wrap around attach. Gives your hand a nice comfortable fit when using the "pole" as a walking stick.
This is the "bottom" of the pole. The end is very fragile plastic and you will need to protect it. I used black tape then duct tape. Looked at furniture tips but they were too big and heavy. Still looking for a better solution.
The "top" end of the pole. Furniture tip protects this end. This end also is the ground end when using the pole as a hiking stick.
Another view with the furniture tip off. Seems to be rugged enough so far.
I used 3 sections of the original BW pole. I measured the diameter very carefully with precision calipers. You want it to be a "snug" fit into the PVC extension adapter which attaches to the BP VersaTee adaptor. I used precision calipers to get a precise diameter measurement of just less than 0.003 in. Then I scored the fiberglass with a pipe cutter and carefully cut the pole section. I then cut from the discarded section 3 inch "inserts" that fit inside (epoxy glued) to significantly strengthen the end that will insert into the PVC adapter. See the following photos.
Another view of the laminated end of the pole mast that significantly strengthens this end. Without this the end is too "flimsy" and isn't strong enough for the joint.
I use some foam rubber to fit inside the pole slip-fit end connector to "buffer" the pole sections when collapsed. The foam rubber keeps the pole sections from "banging" inside against the end connector when using it as a walking stick.
Here's the rest of the antenna mast. Clockwise: VersaTee from Buddipole. Dedicated length elevated radial. I use a round terminal connector and attach it to the VersaTee via the bolt-in adapter. Alum ground stakes. Climbing chocks which are useful when operating from a rock summit and only have rock cracks available. Poly tent guy line with an S-hook. Buddipole mini-coil. VersaTee pipe adaptor and 3" of PVC pipe that fits over BW mast. Homebrew alum guy ring that fits over VerstaTee pipe adaptor.
Another pic of the same thing without the flash.
Close up of the HB guy ring and the VersaTee pipe to BW pole adaptor. The 3" PVC tube significantly strengthens this joint. I painted the pole adapter black for appearance reasons.
I use fiberglass driveway snow markers (Home Depot) cut to a 24" length and PEX tubing adaptors for the slip fit joints. Simple fishing line swivel adaptor for the top end. This is to support the elevated radial. I got the "heavy duty (0.38" diameter)" shock-cord 3-section whips custom made from Buddipole. Get the screw-in ferrule for both ends: one end to the VerstaTee and the other end to the mini-coil. The Mini-coil has no screw-in male insert 3/8-24 adapters, i.e. female only so you can screw in the shock-corded whips. The 1" alum rod is a HB "coupler" when I don't need the mini-coil for the higher bands (17m and above in my case).
Another view of the same picture but with flash.
Installation on Twin Mtn, Catskills NY. Winds were gusting up to 25+ mph. Heavy duty 3 sect SC whip + mini-coil + 5 section "normal" duty SC whip. System tunes easily on 30m. For 17m, I use one turn on coil. For 15m and up, I use no coil and the black 9-1/2 whip at 4 sections extended or less. This is a very rugged/durable system.
One of the big wind gusts!
Mast installation. Guyed to tree limbs.

All violence begins in the human heart. All war has its root in inner violence. A person who is at war with himself will soon cause strife for those around him. Whether in families or nation against nation, inner violence needs an object for its outward expression. It only stands to reason.
There is a saying that one person's trash is another person's treasure. Or is it? I have run two garage sales, and helped my parents with another. On each occasion I was surprised that stuff we considered "junk" was deemed a virtual "find" by the willing buyer.
As the 21 members of the Association of Catholic Colleges and Universities in Canada (ACCUC) commence a new academic year, it is appropriate to ponder and draw inspiration from the distinguished scholarship of Blessed John Henry Cardinal Newman and Blessed Pope John Paul II.
Our relationship with angels is one of the clearest signs of the mentality with which we live. At one time, everyone saw the world as shot through with mystery. The line between the material and the spiritual was porous and few questioned that God, the saints and angels frequently affected our lives and our world.
Home is where we start from." T.S. Eliot wrote that and it describes an experience that can be felt both as a freedom and as a heartache. I cite my own case:
There is a longing in us all to know the reason for our existence. This longing drives us human beings to search far and wide. We search for answers, for meaning, for purpose. Yet we often get the answer wrong.
In the Apostles Creed, why do we say that Jesus descended into hell? Why would he go to hell?
Capable Catholics should not be reticent about becoming candidates in the civic elections held across Alberta Oct. 21. Serving in public office is one way lay Catholics can help to renew the "temporal order," the life and breath of society.
In his monumental study of atheism, Michael Buckley suggests that atheism is invariably a parasite that feeds off bad religion. It feeds off bad religion, picks on bad religion and picks apart bad religion.

But as sexy as they are, they make the good idea behind this video even better by working so well together. These girls know how to share.

And they spread each other's butt cheeks open for Stone.

Clearwire's Bond Offering a 'Home Run' for Sprint, Swaps Show
Credit-default swaps on Sprint Nextel Corp. dropped to the lowest in three weeks after majority-owned Clearwire Corp., the high-speed wireless network carrier, said it will sell at least $1.1 billion of debt.
"If they can raise all this debt, the first $1.1 billion of it, that's a home run for Sprint because Clearwire's still up and running," Dave Novosel, senior analyst at Gimme Credit, an independent research service on corporate bonds, said in a telephone interview. "They can close that funding gap, which is huge, which helps fund the expansion of their network, and therefore Sprint has a much more viable partner."
Sprint's credit-default swaps dropped 40.5 basis points to 366.8 basis points, according to data provider CMA. The contracts on Overland Park, Kansas-based Sprint surged last month after Clearwire disclosed on Nov. 4 that it may not have enough funding to keep operating. The cost of protecting Sprint's debt jumped 114.5 basis points to as high as 420.6 on Nov. 30, CMA data show.
The swaps surged as traders speculated that a Clearwire default could trigger a contract provision pulling Sprint, the third-largest U.S. mobile phone carrier, into default as well.
Clearwire may offer $175 million of first-priority senior secured notes due in 2015, $500 million of second-priority secured notes due 2017 and $500 million of exchangeable notes due 2040, the company said today in a statement distributed by Business Wire.
Long-Term Needs
Clearwire shares dropped 92 cents, or almost 14 percent, to $5.90 on the Nasdaq Stock Market, while Sprint rose 9 cents, or 2.4 percent, to $3.86 in New York Stock Exchange composite trading as of 5:22 p.m.
While the bond offering will help address near-term funding, the company still needs to find additional capital, according to Ping Zhao, a telecommunications analyst at New York-based debt-research firm CreditSights Inc.
"It solves their immediate liquidity issue, but it doesn't solve the issue of the long-term funding to finish the network build-out," Zhao said in a telephone interview. "Sprint still has to contribute. I don't think Sprint has any way around it."
Contracts protecting a net $2.01 billion of Sprint's debt were outstanding as of Nov. 26, according to the Depository Trust Clearing Corp., which runs a central repository for the credit swaps market.
Credit swaps pay the buyer face value if a borrower fails to meet its obligations, less the value of the defaulted debt. A basis point equals $1,000 annually on a contract protecting $10 million of debt.
'Acute' Tension
The benchmark U.S. credit-default swaps index fell for a second day, reaching an eight-day low, as the European Central Bank said it will delay the withdrawal of emergency liquidity measures and keep buying government bonds as the debt crisis creates "acute" tensions in financial markets.
The Markit CDX North America Investment Grade Index, which investors use to hedge against losses on corporate debt or to speculate on creditworthiness, decreased 3.4 basis points to a mid-price of 92.3 basis points as of 5:01 p.m. in New York, according to index administrator Markit Group Ltd.
The measure, which typically falls as investor confidence improves and rises as it deteriorates, ended Nov. 22 at 91 basis points.
"Overall the current monetary policy stance remains accommodative," ECB President Jean-Claude Trichet said as the banking body met in Frankfurt today under pressure from investors to stop the region's debt crisis from engulfing Spain.
ECB policy makers kept the benchmark interest rate at a record low of 1 percent.

A NATION CHALLENGED: THE RESPONSE; Many Lessons To Be Learned With Anthrax
By GINA KOLATA
Published: October 28, 2001
It has been nearly a month now since the government announced that a Florida man had come down with inhalation anthrax, a disease that almost no doctor in the United States had ever seen and few had thought about.
''It is an isolated case,'' Tommy G. Thompson, the secretary of health and human services, said at a White House briefing on Oct. 4. ''There is no terrorism.''
But now, with seven cases of the deadly inhalation anthrax confirmed in addition to seven of the less serious cutaneous type, scientists and government officials are having to rethink everything they thought they knew about anthrax, and they candidly admit that much of what they thought was wrong.
The biggest lesson so far, some say, is that despite years of discussing and imagining how a bioterrorism attack might occur, and how it might be recognized, the actual attack took everyone by surprise. And experts say that is the very nature of terrorism.
''The more you prepare for one kind of surprise, the more they are likely to come in an area you're not prepared for,'' said a senior government official with knowledge of the situation.
Anthrax was on everyone's list of possible agents for a terrorist attack, but the situations people imagined tended to involve large-scale attacks, with clouds of spores dropped on a city or a football stadium and with hundreds or thousands of people getting sick at once. Those attacks are considered hard to pull off. The spores have to be finely ground so they can get into people's lungs and treated so they will not clump together, but then they can easily be dispersed by the wind and killed by the sun.
No one expected that terrorists would send expertly processed anthrax spores through the mail. Nor did experts anticipate that the spores would burst out of letters and infect postal workers.
''The full scale of this has emerged gradually, over a period of weeks,'' said Dr. Jonathan B. Tucker, a bioterrorism expert at the Washington office of the Monterey Institute of International Studies.
Even when a letter with highly lethal spores arrived at Senator Tom Daschle's office, said Dr. Jeffrey Koplan, the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, ''we were still operating on the assumption that in order for a letter to convey this -- the anthrax -- it had to be either opened by someone who was opening mail, or in some way torn or disrupted in the sorting process, because the concept of powder in a sealed letter was one that suggested it would stay with that letter.''
Calvin Chue, a scientist at the Center for Civilian Biodefense Studies at Johns Hopkins University, said the idea that spores in the mail could give postal workers inhalation anthrax was not even considered. ''Most of us didn't consider how mail was processed,'' he said.
Even though the current cases in Florida, New York, New Jersey and Washington are being intensely studied, they have not yet yielded data to answer some of the most basic questions.
Of particular concern is inhalation anthrax, the most dangerous form of the disease. Much of what is known about how it progresses was learned from 1993 research about an outbreak in the Soviet Union that occurred in 1979.
Anthrax spores were accidentally released from a germ warfare laboratory in Sverdlovsk, infecting at least 96 people and killing at least 68, but just how many people suffered symptoms and many other details remain mysteries.
And as the recent cases show, the survival rate is unknown, whether or not the disease is treated with antibiotics. So far, in seven confirmed cases of inhalation anthrax, three have died.
The recent attacks also raise questions about how many spores are inhaled in those who become ill. Textbooks say 8,000 to 10,000 spores. But, said Dr. Marguerite A. Neill, an infectious disease expert at Brown University, those estimates are based on studies decades ago of workers who handled animal hides.
It may be that fewer spores are required, especially if they are treated to float in the air and penetrate the lungs. And there may be characteristics of the patients, like whether they are smokers, that are important. On the other hand, it is impossible to know how many spores people inhaled and how many other people may have inhaled spores and not become ill.
The anthrax cases also show that there is no early warning system that such a bioterrorism attack is under way, Dr. Neill said. The first sign is that someone, like Mr. Stevens in Florida, becomes gravely ill. ''I think we have to acknowledge that,'' Dr. Neill said.
The recent case of Joseph P. Curseen Jr., a 47-year-old Washington postal worker who died of anthrax, provided another lesson.
Mr. Curseen, who worked at the Brentwood Road sorting center, went to the emergency room of the Southern Maryland Hospital Center on Saturday night, Oct. 20, but was sent home with medications for nausea and diarrhea. On Monday, after he collapsed and returned to the hospital in an ambulance, attempts to save his life failed.
As for now, Dr. Neill said, the flu season has not begun. ''If someone comes in, shaking badly, I'm not going to say, 'This is the flu,' '' she said, ''particularly if they were in a geographic area that has anthrax.''

Thompson, shown testifying before a House subcommittee with Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, infectious diseases institute director. (Carol T. Powers for The New York Times); (G.

I'm also guessing that locking then increments a count and it's not really unlocked until you've unlocked as many as you've locked. Whereas non recursive means you block when you try to grab a lock that you already possess. Is all of that correct?

Looks like what I need. Some other details: (MUTEX-LOCK mutex) There should be two different versions, one that blocks until it succeeds, one that does not block but just tells you whether you have it or not. Is there a way to tell who has a lock? (Or whether anyone does?) When you unlock a lock you don't have - noop? error? I guess I could experiment, but also trying to encourage (possibly even help) you to write some doc.

Has Huawei Made it in the UK? The Numbers Seem to Suggest So
UK sales of the Huawei P9 saw a 300 per cent increase over the P8.
UK sales of the Huawei P9 saw a 300 per cent increase over the P8.
All a bit Mean Girls.
While Leica's name may be slapped onto Huawei's newest phone, it's clear that the branding, and theoretical partnership it implies, did nothing to improve actual performance.
Production problems, partnership doubts and a clash between East and West.
We've fiddled with Huawei's new flagship.
Huawei's launched its new flagship duo.
The handset's arriving this Wednesday.
Huawei's approaching the launch of its next flagship kind of weirdly.
These retailers just can't help themselves can they?
Didn't launch at MWC, but should arrive before summer.
We've seen smartphones, VR headsets, and some batshit crazy stuff (see photo above)—and almost all of it has been awesome.
Huawei is known for making phones. Some of them are pretty good. Now, they are making convertible tablets too...with keyboards...and Windows 10.
These tradeshows come around quickly, don't they?
The trend towards Microsoft's new laptop being ripped off continues.
But damn you Android skin!
The Huawei Honor 5X is perfectly fine, but its mostly metal design makes this £170 chunk of phone passable as something much nicer than it really is.

Cold-blasting Chicken Noodle Soup
Total Time
Prep 15 mins
Cook 20 mins
This is the favorite soup at our house whenever anyone has a cold. We invented it over time, adding more spices as we went! The combination of the garlic, onion, ginger, chili pepper and cilantro really seems to give the immune system a boost. (But if you don't like one of these ingredients -- or don't have it on hand -- just leave it out; the soup will still taste good!) I prefer using leftover roast chicken for this recipe, but you can also use uncooked chicken -- just let it simmer in the broth until it cooks. And note: if you don't have lemon pepper, just use plain black pepper.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 bay leaf
- 32 ounces chicken broth
- 1 cup dry pasta
- 1 cup chicken (cubed or shredded)
- 1 teaspoon lemon pepper (store-bought blend)
- 1⁄8 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
- 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
- 1⁄2 cup onion, chopped
- 1⁄4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- red chili pepper flakes or red chili paste or minced fresh serrano chili pepper, to taste
- Heat the chicken broth with the bay leaf until broth boils.
- Add pasta; return broth to boil.
- Add chicken and lemon pepper; return broth to boil.
- Let mixture cook until pasta is done, about 10 minutes (if you're using uncooked chicken, test the chicken for doneness-- but it should be cooked by the time the pasta is done).
- Add ginger, garlic and onion; cook a few more minutes until onion pieces start to turn translucent.
- Stir in cilantro and chili; cook one more minute, then serve.

My 11 year old and I really enjoyed it, but my husband thought it was too heavy on the onion. It is spicy, which was a nice change.
Wonderful soup! It's a nice change from the more traditional. And I think it did help ease my cold!!!
I have to give this soup a 5 star rating. It was a soup that I was sceptal about because of the amount of cilantro, but I was wrong. It had a really nice taste and my family loved it and asked for more.

How good are the chrome books?
Price - Performance wise.
Here's a link to them: Introducing the new Chromebook
I always like to peruse newegg reviews. I've looked at chromebooks. For what it does, I'd rather get a decent tablet with a keyboard - honestly I think that'll be more useful than a chromebook.
Chromebook is like a lightweight companion - you shouldn't expect it to do /much/ imo. I looked at chromebooks, netbooks, and tablets. In my opinion the tablet market has grown enough (I thought they were stupid at first) that most tablets function better than small-scale portable computers (chrome/netbooks). That's just my opinion, as someone who's browsed the lightweight market for something easy to transport purely for class notes, school, and general portability.
If you're looking at this for gaming... I think you're looking in the wrong place.
also assuming you wanted a cheap gaming laptop because you gave no real idea of what you actually want this for. `-`
I was thinking about buying one for classes since they seem to have a really long battery life.
What i'm looking for is easy portability and a long lasting battery.
Then yeah. If you had said that in the first place @_@
Personally I think I prefer an Asus transformer with the chargeable keyboard dock, but that comes down to preference. If you read the reviews I linked, the general consensus is that they do what they're made to do well - though they can't run office. An android tablet can run a free office app that's saves/opens .docs and you can get a USB port wit a transformer at least... Honestly I'd rather shell out the extra money for a tablet by that's my opinion. Shop around a little bit.
You can try them with VirtualBox and a virtualbox image here.

Dead Man Down
Directed by Niels Arden Oplev. Starring Colin Farrell, Noomi Rapace, Terrence Howard, Dominic Cooper, Luis Da Silva Jr., Isabelle Huppert. (2013, R, 110 min.)
REVIEWED By Kimberley Jones, Fri., March 15, 2013
It's counterproductive, yes, to wonder what might have been, and yet: What would it have looked like if someone like James Gray (The Yards, We Own the Night) – with his facility for immigrant turf wars and devastating stylizations that enhance, not drown out, the narrative – had helmed Dead Man Down instead? The Danish director Niels Arden Oplev, who filmed the original Girl With the Dragon Tattoo and makes his English-language debut here, doesn't share the same affinity for nuance or depth of character. Indeed, when an early shootout erupts with a reggae-beat score, it's clear this director sees carnage as nothing more than an opportunity for music-video production values.
Scripted by J.H. Wyman (The Mexican, TV's Fringe), Dead Man Down derives most of its tension the wrong way: by needlessly overcomplicating plot delivery. This isn't edge-of-your-seat stuff – it's scratch-your-head – but it isn't revealing too much to say that the forever-underused Colin Farrell is the best thing about this sorely lacking thriller. He plays Victor, a tormented second lieutenant to Terrence Howard's vaguely defined crime boss. Noomi Rapace, Oplev's original Lisbeth Salander, is Beatrice, a damaged soul living in the apartment across from Victor's, weirdly done up in midriff-baring printed shirts that recall hospital gowns. They make eyes across the alleyway and eventually meet for a first date that hard-turns into something of a mutually beneficial arrangement, à la Strangers on a Train. The allusion to Hitchcock, alas, is fruitless: While the film's revenge fixation was certainly in Hitch's wheelhouse, the master of suspense never needed heavy ordnance to get his point across.

SUNDAY, JULY 5: One of Jim's and my prerace volunteer activities was marking spaces for supplies for the race's 13 aid stations.
Allan Holtz helped JIm and me on 7-5 to divvy up some of the supplies for the aid stations.
Several neat little piles of aid station supplies on 7-5. Lots more stuff will be added to the 13 piles by the end of the week.
TUESDAY, JULY 7: Two days later, there are more food and non-food items in the aid station piles. Perishables will be added shortly before the AS captains pick up their supplies.
Volunteers Don Platt (also running the race) and Fran continue to work on aid station supplies on 7-7.
Mark Heaphy (foreground) counts and arranges the runners' goodie bags after volunteers stuff them the day before registration begins.
Before: Piles of merchandise and volunteer shirts hide in boxes on the gym floor on 7-5.
During: the tables are ready for the HRH merchandise to be displayed. L-R: unknown volunteer, Heidi Schutt, Mike James, Don Platt, Roger Ackerman (on bleachers, hanging sponsors' banners). 7-7-09
After: it took several volunteers several hours to fold the new clothing and help Heidi arrange all the items for sale in an orderly manner.
Foreground: display of finishers' posters from the past 12 years; background: volunteers continue to sort aid station items. 7-8-09

A new wrinkle has been added to the start-finish area outside the HS gym: colorful flags representing the countries and states of all the runners. 7-8-09
Rodger Wrublick brought the flags from the race he directs in Phoenix, Across the Years 24-, 48-, and 72-hour runs. One of the Coury brothers wryly commented that at Hardrock, runners just have to watch out for that rock! (no rocks at ATY, just continuous 500-meter loops) 7-9-09
There's the famous "hard rock" that the finishers are required to KISS upon completion of the race! The race honors the mining history of the area.

The male and female winners' names are added to this trophy every year. This is the 16th running of the race.
Jim (center) helps Laura and Roy Davidson with communications at race headquarters.
I got to see Tyler Curiel (blue shirt) finish in 13th place. After kissing the rock, he talked with his pacer (son?), RD Dale Garland, and a friend.
Then I went out to Mineral Creek to watch some runners cross two miles before the finish. Here comes 16th place finisher Erich Peitzsch. Ronda Sundermeier's husband is on the right, pointing.
It's not easy negotiating this steep little descent into the creek at 98 miles!
17th-place finisher Mike Erlich crosses Mineral Creek.
Second-place female (18th overall) Ronda Sundermeier crosses like a pro.
What a beautiful smile, Ronda! Her husband and son were standing in the creek for several minutes, waiting for her to come through.
SUNDAY AM, JULY 12: Brunch is set up for the runners, volunteers, and crews at the Silverton HS gym. The food is always good!
Guest line up for brunch.

8th-place finisher Roch Horton (R) introduces this year's commemorative race song, a fun tradition at Hardrock.
Race winner Karl Meltzer (at microphone) and previous HRH winners join in on the refrains.
Tyler Curiel happily accepts his award. This is his 10th HRH finish and a course PR for him. Tyler always wears his trademark Mardi Gras-type beads in the race; he lived in New Orleans until it flooded.
Female winner Diana Finkel, at mic, not only was 3rd overall, she also broke the women's record (both directions, I think) by over two hours. Great job, Diana!!
Karl Meltzer, overall winner. I believe he set a new CCW record on the course. There was a 75% finish rate this year and many of the runners set personal course records.
Kirk Apt graciously accepts a special award for his 15th Hardrock finish, the most times anyone has finished the race. This was the 16th running of the race.
That's all for 2009! See another album for course photos we took during training runs and course marking days.

Cladding the inside of a pipes and valve seats with an abrasive and/or corrosion resistant material onto a cheaper substrate in one or two layers is common in the oil and gas industry as pipe networks made of dissimilar materials have longer life and are more economical. The process is ideal for welding automation as the torch or component movement is generally very simple (e.g. helical or stepped rotation). An overview of simple and more complex clad products is shown in the following slides.
The automated machines used to internally clad pipes and the like generally employ one or two GTAW torches and hot-wire system(s). These torches are able to clad the substrate with high integrity layers at increased deposition rates and reduced dilution compared to cold-wire systems (more info here and here). Plasma transferred arc and laser may also be used as a heat source with hotwire or powder feed systems. OEM machine builders offering GTAW with hotwire include Polysoude, Arc Specialties, Jetline, Amet, Welding Alloys, Fronius, Arc Machines, Power Electronics and Controls, Redman Controls (please suggest missing companies below).
Automatic spiral cladding with GTAW by Polysoude
Automatic spiral cladding with laser by Rofin (with powder)
It's obviously rather difficult to see and control the torch and wire feed when they are embedded far up a pipe. As such, welding cameras are commonly employed to monitor the process. As cladding consumes a lot of wire, the wire spool is changed often. Unless endless wire systems are employed (click here for a short review), cameras are also particularly important for checking that the weld torch and wire are correctly positioned before restarting the cladding process. The three important features for such a welding camera are the ability to visualize both when the arc is on and when the arc is off, water-cooling due to space constraints and small camera size. The following video shows a two torch process developed by Arc Specialties for KladArc.

It was a day to give thanks to the Lord for the bountiful gift of food from the growing season.

NEW ORLEANS -- The Auburn Montgomery tennis teams continued their 2013 Fall season by participating in the USTA/ITA NAIA South Regional Championship this past weekend. The Warhawks enjoyed a successful tournament, as seniors Zinelabidine Jouini and Jade Curtis captured their respective main draw singles titles, while juniors Nicolas Pinones-Haltenhoff and Miguel Grifol won the men's doubles draw.
For the second consecutive tournament, Jouini defeated a teammate in the finals of the singles draw, as the Tunis, Tunisia, native, captured a 6-3, 6-4, victory over junior Othmane Lalami. Jouini won five matches en route to the championship, including wins over William Carey's Jody Claassen (third seed), Xavier's Nikita Soifer (six seed) and Grifol (seven seed). He won four of the matches in straight sets, with the exception being a 4-6, 6-4, 1-0 (10-5) win over Claassen in the round of 16.
Lalami received a bye in the first round and won four matches to reach the finals. Highlighting the tournament for Lalami was a 2-6, 7-6 (7-4), 1-0 (10-5) upset of No. 4 seed Kyle Montrel of Xavier in the round of 16.
Grifol advanced to the semifinals of the tournament, before falling to Jouini. The junior picked up a pair of straight-set victories, before upset the No. 2-seed Bruno Tiberti from Georgia Gwinnett, 4-6, 6-4, 1-0 (10-3) in the quarterfinals. Grifol dropped his match with Jouini in the semifinals, 6-3, 6-4.
The Warhawks had an opportunity to have all four singles players in the semifinals, but top-seeded Pinones-Haltenhoff was upset by Erik Moberg from Georgia Gwinnett, 7-6 (7-5), 1-6, 1-0 (10-8). Pinones-Haltenhoff dropped just two games in his other two matches.
Also in action for the Warhawks were senior Josh Reason and freshman Louis Ingram, both of whom were defeated by players from Georgia Gwinnett College. Reason advanced to the round of 32 before falling 7-6 (7-4), 6-3 to Evgeny Silitski. Ingram reached the round of 16, where he was defeated by Tiberti, 6-1, 2-6, 1-0 (10-8).
In doubles play, the top-seeded pairing of Pinones-Halthenoff and Grifol dropped just eight games en route to the finals, where they met conference foe's Claassen and Philipp Mueller from William Carey. In the finals, the AUM duo withstood a second-set rally from the Carey tandem to prevail 6-3, 6-7 (3-7), 6-4, and secure the doubles crown.
Jouini and Ingram also competed in the doubles, winning one match before falling to Claassen and Mueller, 8-2.
On the women's side, Curtis claimed the top singles honors. Curtis breezed to the finals, dropping only three games in her first four matches, including a 6-0, 6-1, victory over Brenau's Maria Perdomo-Medina in the semifinals. In the championship match, Curtis faced second-seed Dominika Jasova of Brenau, who tested her before falling in straight sets, 7-5, 6-3.
Fourth-seed Chanel Cunningham also played well, reaching the quarterfinals of the tournament before falling to fifth-seeded Brion Flowers of Xavier. Cunningham defeated Loyola's Wesley Dejoie and Xavier's Amber Brown prior to dropping the 6-1, 6-3, decision to Flowers.
Sophomore Maria Fernanda Vargas and freshmen Bright Phakamad and Celine Lenertz were also in action for AUM.
Vargas dropped her lone singles match of the main draw to Luma Schwab, but strung together four straight victories in the consolation draw to top home the top honor. Vargas defeated Belhaven's Mary Lichlyter, 9-7, in the consolation finals.
Phakamad cruised to a perfect 6-0, 6-0, victory in the first round, before falling to Perdomo-Medina in the round of 32. Lenertz was granted a first round bye, but was defeated by Brenau's Zalina Nazarova, 7-5, 7-4, in the round of 16.
In the doubles draw, Curtis and Cunningham were the No. 2 seed and advanced to the semifinals, where they were upset by third-seeded Jasova and Perdomo-Medina, 8-5. Phakamad and Lenertz were the No. 4 seed, but were defeated by Rocio Fernandez and Victoria Svennson in the quarterfinals, 8-5.
By winning their respective draws, Curtis, Jouini, Pinones-Haltenhoff and Grifol will move on to participate in the ITA Small College National Championships, played in Fort Myers, Fla., from Oct. 10-13.

this was nice and quick. i omitted the hot sauce as my kids don't like it and i doubled the recipe for the 6 of us, it was enjoyed by all
This was a great, easy meal! I doubled the marinade and served it over brown rice, using the marinade as a sauce also.
This was wonderful I loved using the fine gound Lemon grass (my previous lemon grass had wee sticks in it). the combination of these spices gave a slightly sweet but subtle flavor to the prawns it did not overpower the prawn flavor itself We enjoyed the recipe very much THANKS Pets'R'us

From the Charming Flights of Rossini to a Transcendent Score by Mahler
By ANTHONY TOMMASINI
Published: February 19, 1999
The mezzo-soprano Jennifer Larmore, who is singing her debut performances with the New York Philharmonic this weekend, has a simple explanation for the seeming abundance of singers in her vocal category these days.
''There have always been good mezzos,'' she said recently. ''It's just that nobody paid attention to them before.''
She referred not only to the golden era of mezzos in the decades before and after World War II, when Ebe Stignani, Rise Stevens, Giulietta Simionato and other great artists were active, but also to the decades of her youth as a baby boomer from Atlanta, when the indomitable Marilyn Horne, the elegant Frederica von Stade and the versatile Regina Resnik, among others, were doing their best work.
''For a long time, mezzos were stuck in less-than-glamorous roles,'' Ms. Larmore said, all those character parts that Maureen Forrester used to dub ''mothers, maids, witches and bitches.''
Still, largely thanks to the talent and determination of Ms. Horne, Ms. Larmore says, a whole repertory of heroic, comic and memorable bel canto roles for mezzos was revived and became popular. Ms. Larmore is noted particularly for her technically adroit and vocally lustrous portrayals of such roles, especially Rossini's Isabella, Rosina, Arsace and Cenerentola. So it was not surprising when her Teldec recording last year of Rossini arias, ''Amore per Rossini,'' with the English Chamber Orchestra, was nominated for a Grammy Award this year in the best classical vocal category.
But to Ms. Larmore's frustration, in her own country she is mostly known as a Rossini specialist and champion of Baroque opera, including the daunting title role in Handel's ''Giulio Cesare,'' which she is to sing at the Metropolitan Opera in April. In Europe, where Ms. Larmore's early career was nurtured, she has been heard in a significantly wider repertory, including weighty German music like Schoenberg's massive ''Gurrelieder,'' an early work steeped in Wagner.
So she hopes her performances this weekend with the New York Philharmonic will help change her image here. She will sing in ''Das Lied von der Erde'' by Mahler, with Richard Leech as the tenor soloist and Kurt Masur conducting. There are not many Rossini mezzos around today who would undertake this far-afield work.
Certainly no one could imagine Cecilia Bartoli, a Rossini superstar, singing Mahler or Schoenberg. Ms. Larmore has frequently been compared to Ms. Bartoli, most notably in 1997, when the Met mounted its first production of Rossini's ''Cenerentola'' for the Italian mezzo and asked Ms. Larmore to take over the title role later in the run.
They are quite different artists. At 32, Ms. Bartoli sings with a fresh, gleaming radiance, sparkling vitality and insightful musicianship. At 40, Ms. Larmore has a duskier, larger and more penetrating sound. Though proud of her ''brilliant, full high C,'' Ms. Larmore says that nobody would want to hear her high D.
But she has a seemingly inborn facility for coloratura flights that emerged uninstructed when she was 14. Her work is further enriched by dramatic depth, where called for, and, here and there, a touch of rather sly Southern charm. These qualities charged her portrayal of Cenerentola at the Met, which the New York Times critic James R. Oestreich described as ''a vocal tour de force worthy to stand alongside anyone's.''
''That was very gratifying,'' Ms. Larmore said, with disarming sincerity. ''But I think Cecilia is wonderful and we like each other. We sang together in 'Cosi Fan Tutte' at the Salzburg Festival in 1993, and laughed over coffee in a cafe one day about the battle everyone thinks we are engaged in.''
No to Teaching Do-Re-Mi
Ms. Bartoli achieved her first great success in the United States, while Ms. Larmore went early on to Europe.
She grew up the youngest of four children, and her parents took her almost weekly to the Atlanta Symphony, then in its heyday under the late Robert Shaw. ''I sang with the symphony under Shaw as part of the All-State Chorus,'' she said. ''I grew up with him.''
Ms. Larmore eschewed a conservatory for the less high-powered atmosphere of Westminster Choir School in Princeton, N.J., where students were prepared for sensible careers as public school teachers and church choir directors. But when she graduated, Ms. Larmore realized that teaching children do-re-mi was not for her.
She worked for three intensive years with John Bullock, a voice teacher in Arlington, Va., supporting herself as a salesperson in a local gourmet shop. Then, while taking part in the Spoleto Festival in Italy in 1980, she met William Powers, a bass-baritone 17 years her senior. She was 22. Two years later they were married.
''Bill was already in the business,'' she said. ''So he knew a lot about life. He cherished me, protected me, counseled me. Because of him, I have the career I have today.''
When Ms. Larmore felt ready to enter the field professionally, she sang three auditions in Manhattan on the same day, for companies in Augusta, Ga.; Syracuse, N.Y., and Nice, France, assuming that her best shot would be in the United States. Only Nice came through, offering her a debut in 1986 in Mozart's ''Clemenza di Tito.''

During my association with canning hunger, I learned both sides of the story. As an addict in recovery, and a budding believer in Christ I was able to get a food handlers card, and learn valuable customer service skills. We worked venues in San Diego, Orange County, and LA. The money went directly into the sober livings that got so many of us back on track. Each and every one of the workers in those booths are working either to rebuild theirs or someone elses lives. Scam? I think not. When you go to a sporting event, concert, Monster Truck or Motorcycle race; the snack bar server very well be someone from Canning hunger.

I have been helped by this group in countless ways, not only with learning how to work again but in receiving boxes of food to help me survive getting back on my feet after losing my job several years ago. We wouldn't have survived with out their help.

This group is a complete scam.
Raises money for the telemarketer "Dr. Norman Whan", who has been involved with telemarketing/fundraising for a variety of self-described ministries or churches in Orange County. They are now expanding, and targeting wealthy neighborhoods in San Diego County to increase their collections. Their non-profit filings on their website, and their website in general, are inadequate and out of date.
They currently pretend to "paint curbs" , and then return to ask money for "volunteer" work performed. They do not have permission to do so, in general are not desired in the neighborhoods, and may be a front for further criminal activities in the targeted neighborhoods.
You have been warned.

The charity states that it feeds one million people annually. If you break that down my dividing 12 into 1,000,000 you have 83,333 people per month. There are 22 working days per month that a charity would have people working to pass out food. Now divide 22 into 83,333 and you have 3,787 people per day that are being given food. When Cunning Hunger has one food bank location in the City of Brea and only operates in Southern California. The charity makes claims that are not supported by the facts of what it actually does.

Hey Guys,
I want to create a plugin that allows us to easily create a ribbon if not multiple ribbons in different colors, styles with different messages and links.
It has been so long since I've done really PHP from scratch programming that it is taking me quite some time to determine which code I need and where. If you are interested, post here, and I'll create a new plugin slot in the repository and add you to it as a user. Then we can collaborate and kick out a smooth as silk plugin that puts an end to all the unnecessary ribbon plugins.
Gone will be the day you want to ribbon a message or link and you have to wait for someone else to do it.

I have recently put together a set of slides about LIL (Low-level Intermediate Language) and gave a talk at Microsoft. This work was done before I joined Microsoft: LIL was developed by the ORP (Open Runtime Platform) team at Intel. LIL was addressing multiple issues in the ORP design (papers referenced below can give you an idea) but the focus of this presentation was more narrow: how to improve the interface between the JIT (Just-In-Time compiler) and the rest of the VM. I'd like to point out that I use the terms VM (Virtual Machine) and EE (Execution Engine) interchangeably (see this post for a discussion of this terminology). Others have come up independently with somewhat similar ideas and I found quite a lot of interest in the LIL approach in conversations both inside and outside of Microsoft. For my current presentation I took some of the old LIL slides that I used in a talk I gave at ETH Zürich in 2003 and modified them to focus on the JIT/EE interface. This version of slides benefited from my conversations with many people in the last year, after the original LIL papers were published. I think that I owe most to my conversations with George Bosworth and to comments by Thorsten Brunklaus who worked on the SEAM VM (see below) and now is in the CLR team.
LIL is described at length in the VM'04 paper. The MPOOL'03 paper (pdf) presents some thoughts on how LIL could be used to abstract away the object model from the JIT. Full references to these two papers are available on my publications page.
The talk I just gave had the title "Execution Engine-independent JIT compilers" and the basic idea is that LIL enables a much better abstraction of the EE from a JIT's point of view then what is used in all known to me implementations of virtual machines for JVM and CLR/CLI. I made the full presentation available as a pdf file.
Here are references to the related work mentioned in the slides:

Imam inspires Pakistan triumph
A magnificent 120 from Imam-ul-Haq set up a for Pakistan Under-19s against England in the tri-series at Sleaford.
Pakistan were frustrated as rain forced a no-result against Bangladesh at Loughborough yesterday but displayed imperious form in the hosts' first outing of the tournament.
England won the toss but, despite Yorkshire's Matthew Fisher dismissing Imran Butt with the score on 46 in the 12th over, it was a decision stand-in skipper Jonathan Tattersall would come to regret as opposite number Sami Aslam and Imam went about compiling a match-winning partnership.
By the time Aslam fell for 60 to Fisher's county colleague Will Rhodes in the 40th over the score was 191 for two, while Imam remained for a brisk late stand with Farhan Nazir before both men were bowled by Josh Shaw. The latter struck an explosive 46 from 22 balls, featuring three fours and four sixes, as Pakistan posted 288 for five from their 50-over allocation.
Rhodes followed figures of 2-55 with a magnificent century of his own - 105 from 83 deliveries - but, aside from a patient 50 from Harry Finch he was afforded precious little support.
The duo put on 134 for the sixth wicket but both fell to seamer Mohammad Aftab - the pick of the Pakistan bowlers with 4-60 - before England were all out for 242 with two overs remaining.

Back to the Border: A Historical Comparison of U.S. Border Politics
By Katherine Benton-Cohen and Geraldo Cadava
During the spring and summer of 2010, America's broken immigration system erupted into national news headlines as a result of the passage in Arizona of a sweeping anti-immigrant law (SB 1070), growing concerns over drug-related violence along the U.S.-Mexico border, and calls in some quarters for a repeal of the Fourteenth Amendment's guarantee of birthright citizenship. While these events might seem new, the issues involved—unauthorized migration, labor disputes, violence, federalism, and constitutional rights—have played out over and over again, particularly along the border. Back to the Border provides analyses by two historians who situate today's controversies within the context of the broader history of the border region. Understanding that history not only allows us to make sense of the complex issues behind the current rhetoric, but also demonstrates why it is necessary to go beyond the rhetoric and search for lasting solutions.
The following "Perspectives" by historians Katherine Benton-Cohen and Geraldo Cadava compare and contrast conditions and incidents along the Arizona border in 1917, 1976, and 2010. The similarities between the three eras are startling.

Bush oblivious to our problems
Published: Wednesday, April 20, 2005 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, April 20, 2005 at 12:00 a.m.
To The Editor: As talks take place regarding ways to forgive so-called poor countries billions in debt, our president goes further and proposes that future loans be in the form of grants so they won't have to make any repayment whatsoever.
I can't believe I voted for this man. He seems to have unlimited charity for those countries that hate us and is oblivious to what's happening in his own country.
Gas prices soar, the war in Iraq is breaking the economic back of our country, heroic soldiers die every day, the stock market suffers, drug companies rape Americans, medical care is unavailable for the poor but given free to illegal immigrants and Americans feel helpless to alter the practices of the federal government in any way.
And what does our president do? Nothing but stand there with a grin on his face.
Meanwhile Democrats, who should be stepping into this leadership void, place radicals such as Howard Dean, Nancy Pelosi and Eva Ritchey in charge of their party. People who've been rejected time and again by voters.
Fellow Americans, we deserve better than this. Please make your concerns known or we turn over a second rate country to our grandchildren.
