Gravity plays a central role in physics for several reasons. Every particle in the universe attracts every other particle. The gravitational force is one of very few fundamental forces between interacting particles. The others are the electromagnetic force between electrically charged particles, the weak interaction force that governs the slow decay of certain unstable particles, and the strong interaction force that dominates the interaction between particles in an atomic nucleus. It is now believed that all may be special examples of a single universal force in a grand unified theory of forces. One of the most extraordinary intellectual achievements of all time is originating, developing, and applying the law of gravitation. Sir Isaac Newton contributed this to the world. He saw that single universal force of gravity could account equally well for the motion of a dropped apple, of the moon about the earth, and of the planets about the sun. The laws of physics are universal. Gravity is still a lively topic in present day physics and astronomy. The general theory of relativity is basically a comprehensive theory of gravity. Shifts to longer wavelengths of light emitted by massive stars are gravitational red shifts. Black Holes are an extreme example of gravitational attraction. [1]

Johannes Kepler was the first one who came up with some ideas about gravity, even though he did an unsatisfactory experience. He calculated the distance from Mars at each and every degree around an eccentric circular orbit and used the sum of those distances as a measure of the time it took to get from one place to another. He had used a similar trick with sums of distances to calculate the area of a circle. Johannes Kepler worked out the details of how the orbits of the moon and planets can be described mathematically, but he doesn't explain that what is gravity or how it works. This is known as the Kepler laws of planetary motion. In 1605, he came up with his three laws of planetary motion by referring the measurement of the orbits of the planets by Tycho Brahe. Kepler's three laws of planetary motion are:
1. The planets move in elliptical orbits, with the sun at one focus.
2. The line connecting the planet and the Sun sweeps out equal areas in equal intervals of time.
3. The squares of the orbital periods of planets are directly proportional to the cubes of the major axis of the orbits.
Almost a century later, Sir Isaac Newton deduces Kepler's laws of planetary motion using his invention of calculus and from his laws of motion and law of universal gravity. After that everybody realize the physical explanation of the behavior of planets. Then he modified Kepler's 3rd Law to read,
- P is the planetary orbital period
- m1 is the mass of Sun (in solar mass)
- m2 is the mass of the planet (in solar mass)
- d1 is the distance the Earth travels between the winter and summer solstices (in astronomical units)
- d2 is the distance the Earth travels between the summer and winter solstices (in astronomical units)
- R is the distance between the centers of the two objects (in astronomical units)
1. Everybody continues to be in its state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line unless an unbalanced force acted upon it.
2. The acceleration produced by a net force on an object is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, and it is inversely proportional to the mass of the object.
3. To every action there is always an equal and opposite reaction.
4. The force magnitude varies inversely proportional with the square of the separation distance and is directly proportional to each of the two interacting masses. [2]
What is Gravity or Gravitational force?
Gravity is one of the four fundamental forces of the universe and is considered a non-contact force. It is what holds the planets in orbit as well as the very universe itself. It is what keeps us from floating off into space and plays a crucial role in almost every nature process from the ocean tides to the body's circulatory system. It is a force pulling together all matter. It is the force that causes two particles to pull towards each other. The more mass they have and how closer they are, it has greater the force of attraction. Sir Isaac Newton is the one who came up with an equation for calculating the force of gravity:
G is the universal gravitational constant.m1 is the mass of one of the objects.m2 is the mass of the other object.
r is the distance between the centers of masses of each object.
FG is the force of attraction between the two objects [3]
The vertical motion of objects thrown into the air or of objects falling through the air, if it were not for the resistive force of air on these objects, their acceleration would be constant. This acceleration is caused by the gravitational force of the earth pulling down on the objects. This force and their weight cause them to accelerate toward the center of the earth with gravitational acceleration. Any free object dropped from the rest or thrown near the earth's surface has the same gravitational acceleration, 9.8m/s^2 toward the center of the earth. The value of this gravitational acceleration varies slightly with elevation and the latitude and also depends on the geographical formations at different parts of the earth's surface. This gravitational acceleration is constant only if we ignore air resistance. The gravitational force is the weakest of the fundamental forces in physics; yet it is the only fundamental force we experience directly. [4]
The earth is round, it's because of gravitation. According to Newton's Law of Universal law of gravitation, everything pulls everything else with a force that depends upon the masses of the objects and the distance between their centers of mass. So, the earth attracted itself before it become solid. Earth is a giant sphere because any corners of the earth have been pulled in. [5]
Some Facts about Earth and Moon
Earth is the largest terrestrial planet in the Solar System. It has a diameter of seven thousand nine hundred and twenty six miles which is twelve thousand seven hundred and fifty six kilometers. Some scientists believe that Earth may be the only place in the universe that life exists. It is because earth only has the oxygen and nitrogen gases in the atmosphere. Nickname for the Earth is the blue planet; it's because of the water amount in it. What makes Earth so special from other planets is that its unique relationship with the moon, it's own natural satellite. Earth's gravity is the thing that keeping the moon in the orbit around the earth. Moon also has some influence on the earth. Like, Moon affects the weather and ocean tides on the earth. That made the life possible on the earth. Other planets also have moons; earth is not the only one. Some have more than one moon; some do not have any moon. Venus and Mercury don't have any moon. In the solar system, there are at least one hundred and sixty six moons circling around it. Earth's moon is the fifth largest moon in the Solar System. Earth's moon has the greatest size and greatest mass compared to the planet it orbits. Moon has only 1.2 percentage of earth's mass. But because of its closeness to the earth, its small amount of mass has an enormous powerful influence on the earth. [6] The earth is the fifth largest planet in the solar system. It orbits the sun in an elliptical path. Earth is the third planet from the sun and it is about 149.6 million kilometers away from the sun. The inner core of the earth is made up of solid iron and nickel and it has a temperature of about three thousand six hundred and seventy seven degrees Celsius. The next two layers also had the effect of this inner core. The outer core of the earth is made up of iron and nickel; it is in the molten form. And it has a thickness of two thousand and three hundred kilometers. The next layer is made up of mantle; it has the silicate rock in it. It has a thickness of about two thousand and eight hundred kilometers. The layer of the earth at and just below the surface of the earth is the crust, it is made up of silicates and it has six to forty kilometers of depth.[7][8]
How the Moon formed?
Moon is the second brightest object in our sky. It looks like a round shaped. But, it bulges on the side nearest to us. Scientists find out that how the moon is formed, by working out different things. They come up with the idea that: "Around 4.6 billion years ago, before the earth was really solid, a slightly smaller but similar object bumped into it. It was not a head - on collision but a glancing blow, after which the smaller object spun off into space. The debris created by this galactic accident went into an eccentric orbit about 238,855 miles which is 384,400 kilometers from the earth. Over time it came together to form the moon." [9]
When a Mars sized object collided with the earth, enough matter was thrown into space to form the Moon. The newly formed moon began to move farther away from the earth. About one hundred million years after the creation of moon, it was already half way to its present distance. [10]
The bits and pieces that formed the Moon came from the outer layers of the Earth and the object that hit it. That's why in the moon contains little iron. Iron is the main ingredient of the earth's core. There is a tiny amount of water on the surface of moon in the form of ice. It's probably arrived with the meteoroids and the incoming comets. Moon is the only celestial object besides Earth that human beings have visited. There are still questions about moon that are unanswered for human beings. [11]
Structure of Earth and Moon
The moon's structure is very similar to the earth's structure. It has a small inner core with about one thousand four hundred and eighty two degree Celsius. Next layer is made up of some semisolid rock. Next layer is the mantle, which has a thickness of nine hundred and sixty six kilometers. The outer layer is the crust, it is known as the regolith. On the two sides of the moon, it has different thickness. The one we are seeing is only about sixty four kilometers deep. The other side has ninety seven kilometers depth. Still, we didn't get an answer for what's the reason for these differences. Size and distance of Moon and earth also is reason for the gravitational interactions. The moon is much smaller than the earth. The volume of the moon is 2.199 x 10^10 km^3 and the volume of the earth is 1.08321 x 10^12 km3, which is fifty times greater than the moon's volume. The mass of the moon is 7.349 x 10^22 kg and the mass of the earth is 5.9736 x 10^24 kg, which is eighty times greater than the moon. The moon's diameter is 3,476 km and the earth's diameter is twelve thousand seven hundred and forty two kilometers, which is approximately four times greater than the moon. The surface gravity of the earth is 9.78 m/s^2 and the surface gravity of the moon is 1.62 m/s^2, which is one sixth of the earth's gravity. It's because moon has only a small core but the earth has other large core and other metallic elements. The ellipticity of the earth is 0.0034 and the moon's ellipticity is 0.002. Average density of the earth is three hundred and forty four pounds per cubic foot, 5,515 kg/ m^3 and the average density of the moon is two hundred and ten pounds per cubic foot, 3,341 kg/ m3. The acceleration due to gravity on the surface at the equator of the earth is thirty two feet per square seconds, which is 9.78 m/sec^2 and the acceleration due to gravity on the surface at the equator of the moon is 5.32 feet per square seconds, which is 1.62 m/sec^2. The magnetic field strength at the surface of the earth varies from 2.2 * 10-5 to 6.6 * 10-5 T and the surface of the moon varies from 6 to 313 * 10^-9 T, it is about thousand times weaker than Earth's magnetic field strength. [12]
What would happen if the earth and moon were twice as far apart?
Suppose there were two bodies a thousand miles apart. What would happen if the bodies were twice as far apart? By the Newton's Law of gravitation, we can say that if the bodies were twice as far apart, then the gravitational attraction will be one-fourth as great. It's because Newton's Law of Gravitation states that every particle of matter attracts every other particle with a force proportional to the square of the distance between them. So the force varies inversely with the square of the distance. One of the problems that created after the discovery of Law of Universal Gravitation was how and why the moon goes around the earth. If we apply the Newton's Law to the earth - moon system, we know that there will be a gravitational attraction of Earth's mass upon mass of the moon. It is a force and the direction of this force is along the line of those masses that connects the two bodies. If the distance between the two bodies increases, the force will decrease and if the distance between the two bodies decreases, the force will increase. But the force will never become zero, because of that; the moon is always pulled toward the earth. As long as the moon moves in a circular orbit, the distance between earth and moon will remain unchanged. Therefore, the force will not change. [13]
Why the Moon stays in Orbit, not falling down?
Other question will rise on our mind is "If earth is pulling on the moon, why does the moon not fall into earth?" But the Newton's first Law of Motion can answer this question. It states that a body at rest will stay at rest until a force exerted on it or a body in motion stays in motion until a force exerted on it. It means that if no force exerted on a body, the body will remains still or moves in a straight line. If several forces are exerted, and if the forces are balanced, the same thing happens. For example, if you were pushing a table one way, and if someone else were pushing it the other way with equal force, the effect would be zero and it will not move. To move that table, one force must be greater than another, the forces should be unbalanced. Suppose a steel ball were rolling along. There were two magnets, one in the right and one in the left of the steel ball. Left magnet pulls the steel ball to the left and the right magnet pulls the steel ball to the left. If these two magnetic forces are equal, they will cancel the force each other and so the steel ball will move in a straight line. If we want the steel ball to move in a curved path, the force must get unbalanced - one force must be greater than another. So, if something moves in a curved path, the force exerted upon it must be unbalanced and if the forces were balanced, then it will move in a straight line. The Moon moves in a curved path, so the force exerting on it must be unbalanced. The force exerted upon the moon is gravitational attraction of earth and it is not balanced by any other force. The unbalanced force of earth's attraction on the moon causes the moon to fall toward earth, to pull away from a straight line. So it may cause the earth to fall constantly toward earth. The amount of that falling must be 1/19 each second. Suppose, if the moon did not fall toward earth, the moon would go in a straight line and will not see again. Likewise, the earth moves in a curved path about the sun. Earth falls 1/8 inch toward the sun each second. What makes the earth to move in a curved path is the gravitational attraction of the sun deflects it from a straight path. Gravitational attraction is related to mass. If we know the mass of a body, we can find its density. If we know the density, then we can find that how much mass there in a certain volume. Suppose we give a value of 1 for the earth's gravity. Then the gravitational attraction at the surface of moon is one sixth that at the surface of earth. [14]
Results of the gravitational interaction between Earth and Moon
Tides are one of the results of gravitational interaction between sun, moon and the earth. The height of the tides is related to the changes in the position of the moon. The highest tides occur when the moon and sun are on the same side of the earth and lunar eclipse also occurs at this time. These tides are called the spring tides. And the other relationship between earth and moon is that the highest tides occur when the moon is closest to the earth. The lowest tides occur when the sun, earth and moon form a right angle. And it occurs when the Earth lies exactly between the Sun and the Moon. The lower tides are called neap tides. Both of them occur twice a month. The moon attracts the ocean at the moon-side of earth more strongly than it does the solid earth directly below it. So the water is piled up there. The ocean at other side of earth is not pulled toward the moon as much as the solid earth because it is farther away from the moon. So the earth is pulled away from the water. And therefore during this part of the tidal cycle, the water is deeper. Therefore, the high tides occur at the ocean on the moon-side of earth and the ocean on the farthest side of earth. And low tides occur at the top and bottom side of earth, where the locations removed 90 degrees. [15] [16] [17]
Gravitational attraction between Earth and Moon produces a tidal force on each of them. The tidal force of the moon is very small when comparing with the force of gravity. The tidal force of moon is about 1/9,000,000 that of earth's gravity. The tidal force causes each to become slightly oval shaped. The bulges on the earth are the result of the gravitational attraction of the moon. But the tidal bulge will not be stable forever because, if either the earth or moon is rotating relative to the other, the tidal bulge is not stable. The rotation of the body will cause the long axis of the bulge to move out of alignment with the other object. And what works to reshape the rotating body is the gravitational force. Because of the relative rotation between the earth and moon, the tidal bulges move around the rotating body to stay in alignment with the gravitational force between the two bodies. The ocean tides on Earth rise and fall with the rising and setting of its moon. [18] [19]
Eclipses are also one of the results of the gravitational interaction between Earth and the Moon. Solar and Lunar eclipse are the result of the interaction between the shadows of the Earth and Moon. A lunar eclipse can happen only during the full moon phase. It occurs when the moon moves into earth's shadow. But there will not be a lunar eclipse occurs during each full moon. Earth goes around the sun in a certain plane and the moon goes around the earth, but the moon's path is tilted a little more than five degrees to the plane of earth's orbit. The earth always casts a shadow, but we are not aware of it because the moon usually passes above or below the shadow of earth. During the full moon, if the moon is near to the orbit of the earth, then eclipse occurs. When the sun and moon appear near the nodes of moon's orbit, a lunar eclipse occurs. To the astronomers lunar eclipses are not valuable as solar eclipses. Lunar eclipses can be used to determine the dates when events of long ago occurred. One example for this is that the bible says that there was a lunar eclipse the night before the King Herod's death. This information helped the historians to fix the date of his death. The solar eclipse occurs when the moon is new, when the moon is between the earth and sun. Every twenty nine days, twelve hours, forty four minutes and three seconds, the Sun, Moon and Earth are in direct alignment. New moon officially occurs when our satellite passes between our line of sight and the Sun. The moon passes either above or below the Sun from our angle of view. Solar eclipses only lasts for a few minutes. The longest solar eclipse can last is seven minutes and forty seconds. It can be this long only when viewed it only from the equator. There is an average of four eclipses occurs each year. Always, there are at least two solar eclipses in a year. There may be sometimes as many as seven eclipses occurs per year, five solar and two lunar or four solar and three lunar. Anyway, there are more solar eclipses in a year than the lunar eclipses. It's because of a lunar eclipse can be seen considerably more than one half of earth, while solar eclipses can be seen from only a very limited area. [20]
The law of conservation of angular momentum works perfectly for the Earth-Moon system. For the last 4.5 billion years, the total angular momentum has stayed almost the same. The angular momentum of the Earth-Moon system is 3.5 * 10^42kg/m2sec. The tidal bulge of water pulled up from the earth's surface by the gravitational attraction of the moon. And the moon exerts a gravitational torque on the bulge. Torque is a tendency of a force to rotate an object in an axis, also called it as a moment of force. The earth's tidal bulge is at a small angle to the Moon. And the forming torques by the moon causes to slow the rotation of Earth and the Moon to recede from the earth. The tidal bulge exerts a torque on the moon, and it results for the acceleration of the orbital speed of moon. And it causes the Moon to move away from the Earth in order to preserve angular momentum. Based on different analyses, scientists have determined that 2.45 billion years ago, a day on earth was only about nineteen hours long. This means that the earth is rotating in a period of nineteen hours. When the Earth first formed, the rotation of the earth has slowed down and days have gotten longer. Because of the conservation of Angular Momentum, days are still getting longer. Moon pulls the tides around the earth. By tidal fraction, earth's rotation gets slow down. According to conserve angular momentum, the rotation slows and the Moon moves slightly farther from the Earth. By measuring the distance from the moon to the earth by laser ranging, it is known that the Moon is receding from the Earth at a rate of 1.5 +/- 0.03 inches per year. There are still more effects that caused by the interaction between the earth and moon. We find that the earth's day is growing because of the interaction between the earth and moon. And we also talked about the tidal forces, how it formed and how it is effecting on the earth. We find that the Earth and Moon has a close relationship, without the moon, earth can't stay like now and without the earth, moon can't also stay like now. There are still discussions going on about the Earth-Moon system because we can't say that it will be stable forever. Because it changed from the beginning, still it is changing, it will continue this changing process until the end of the world. [21] [22]

KDevelop 4 Beta 1: Developing Software for KDE
The KDevelop team released its first beta version of the development environment for KDE and Qt programs.
The final version of KDevelop 4 is still a long way off. The developers explicitly assert in their newsgroup that the software in its current state is "in no way feature complete" and that are "still bugs and missing functionality." Nevertheless, the software is stable enough to present to a wider user base from which constructive feedback is sought.
KDevelop 4 offers at the least some new help to C++ programmers. The beta automatically resolves missing include directives and writes forward-declarations for typed classes and functions. A blog from developer "zwabel" gives a practical usage example.
Aside from such small but good every day examples, KDevelop 4 includes a fully integrated CMake build system and linkage with the Subversion and git version control systems. Integration with the Qt GUI designer, with which graphical interfaces can easily be combined, is unfortunately still in a startup phase. A number of bugs were fixed since the last alpha and the user interface made a bit more attractive to new users "to lower the entrance barrier."
Source code for the beta is available at the KDE Download site. The development environment itself consists of the KDevPlatform and KDevelop packages, with the former to be installed first. Both packages require KDE 4.2.0 or later. Kubuntu users can download the single kdevelop-kde4 package from the Kubuntu Experimental Archive. Mandriva users can find the beta with the KDE 4.2 packages and openSUSE users will find it hidden in the KDE 4 Extra-Apps repository.
KDevelop 4 from KDevelop.org was completely reworked from its aging pre-version and was made compatible with Qt4.x and KDE 4. A project homepage table compares KDevelop 3 with KDevelop 4. Zwabel's weblog mentioned earlier and apaku.wordpress.com give insights into, and screenshots of, the new beta release.

Hi Golu dear.. no need to say sorry yaar.. i can totally understnd..its fine.. even sometimes i get busy and i know how u all must be waitign for the next part... and i am here not able to post..heheh but we all kow how much we care for each other na.. especially few of us here have kown each other from really long....
Ya Advika is a story with am happy was inspiring.. the thing which always i felt that when a rpaist get s a life term or even jail or hanged ...doesn the girl get her justice really?? does all women suffernign from that trauma want the justice in the same way..?? does the society behave the same way with all?? few women cope few dotn, few stand, few fall... there is a lot of thought of how she wants to sort tit out for herself to feel better than abt how we all want it... and thats where this story was brought up in my mind..
thanks dear for appreicating it.... next story hmmm ya it will be soon.. i will be busy next weekend.. so probably will post soon... a short one....

March is upon us here in Taos and Touchstone Inn is getting ready to start greening up! The first flowers that arrive are our tulips, then our iris and day lilies. We need some help thinning out the iris in the labyrinth so let us know when you arrive if you would like to take a plant home with you. I planed them about 15 years ago and they are very healthy and very hearty.
Brad and the gang took out all of the juniper bushes on the backside of the house and will soon be working on seeding grass. It looks fabulous! The cedar tree that Tony Luhan planted when the house was built will no doubt feel the ease of being the only water drinker posted by the door now.
In our smallish town of Taos, the roads are a little dusty and we are all ready for the transition into full foliage. The winds can be brisk this time of year. So if you are traveling to Taos, or traveling in Taos, then bring a favorite jacket and a scarf.]]>

Mitch Lyons is not an artist who fits neatly into the established art categories. A potter turned printmaker, he has not abandoned clay, but has expanded the possibilities into another medium – that of printmaking.
"Viewing Mitch Lyons' prints could be compared to viewing the interior walls of an old house being demolished, when layers of paint and wallpaper reveal the stratum of lives lived, lives changed, and the elements of time and history."
Fibre Arts Australia
Mitch Lyons earned his Masters of Fine Arts Degree in Ceramics from Tyler School of Art, and his Bachelors of Fine Arts Degree in Graphics from the University of the Arts in Philadelphia. His clay monoprints can be found in numerous private and public collections throughout the United States, including the Brooklyn Museum of Art, Woodmere Museum, American University, Delaware Art Museum, and the University of Delaware.
Lyons has had exhibitions of his work at the Philadelphia Museum of Art; Virginia Museum of Fine Arts; Noyes Museum, New Jersey; Kalmar Lans Museum, Kalmar, Sweden; and the Vonderau Museum, Fulda, Germany. He is a recipient of a Pennsylvania Council of the Arts Visual Arts Grant. He has taught at West Chester University, Moore College of Art, Rowan University, Alfred University, and the University of Delaware. In the past 10 years he has led over 100 workshops.
Since 1968 Lyons has been pioneering his image making from a slab of clay. First a slab of stoneware clay is rolled out about 1/4″ thick. After allowing the slab to dry to a "leather hard" consistency, colored slips are made using China clay and permanent pigments. These colored slips are brushed on, dried and rolled into the clay slab, one color over another, building the design with images, colors and textures on the "matrix".
Once the slab is rolled flat, a moistened piece of paper/canvass is placed over the slab. Pressure is applied using a rolling pin to transfer the clay slips onto the substrate. Because China clay is inert and the pigments used are permanent and stable, the clays remain intact and will give pleasure for many years.
Come learn this unique clay printmaking process in the beautiful Touchstone Inn located in Taos, New Mexico. Students will apply colored slips, pigments, textures, images, and marks to a leather-hard clay slab, and learn to pull prints. This is a process in which everyone succeeds and will experience the power of the clay printmaking process. Open to all levels.

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) Ś Yankees general manager Brian Cashman says he doesnÆt know if injured captain Derek Jeter will be available to play for New York on opening day.
The shortstop received an anti-inflammatory injection in his surgically repaired left ankle and missed his second straight spring game on Wednesday.
ōAt this stage, I just donÆt know, so all I can do is acknowledge itÆs a possibility,ö Cashman said when asked if Jeter would be ready for opening day. ōWeÆve got to be in a position where he plays a full 9 innings of defense, and be able to do back to back (games) and all this other stuff. WeÆll see how he responds, but I canÆt give you certainty now that what heÆs just experienced isnÆt going to push it back a little bit.ö
Cashman didnÆt rule out Jeter starting the season on the disabled list.
ōWeÆve got to do whatÆs right for him,ö Cashman said. ōWhateverÆs right for him will be right for us. IÆm not saying heÆs going to be DLÆed, but I canÆt tell you it wonÆt be. I donÆt think itÆs anything serious, I just think itÆs a timing issue.ö
Cashman says he doesnÆt know when Jeter will resume playing in spring training games. He was removed from the lineup against Philadelphia on Tuesday for ōprecautionaryö reasons because his ankle felt stiff.
Jeter broke his left ankle in Game 1 of the AL championship series in October. The 13-time All-Star played in his first spring game on March 9 and later played the field, including consecutive games, for the first time. He is 3 for 11 so far.
ōThe doctor said, basically, you can experience a lot of different things along the pathway, so itÆs not a surprise,ö Cashman said. ōHis rehab has gone extremely well, but obviously after the back to back, it barked a little bit. HeÆs going to have ups and downs in the early portion of it, but eventually at some point heÆll be past this. WeÆve just got to make sure we take the right steps so itÆs eventually behind him.ö
Cashman said Jeter was sent home after getting the injection and was not at George Steinbrenner Field on Wednesday.
ōLet the shot take its course and see where heÆs at over the next few days,ö Cashman said. ōAfter you get a feel for how heÆs feeling, then weÆll start it up and get him going again. Because of who he is, I canÆt count anything out. Opening day is just a date. WhatÆs more important is how he feels and be in a position to do what heÆs capable of doing on a consistent basis.ö
Eduardo Nunez would replace Jeter at shortstop if heÆs not ready for the opener.
The Yankees have been hit hard by injuries this year. Outfielder Curtis Granderson is out until at least May with a broken right forearm, while first baseman Mark Teixeira says he could miss up to two months due to a partially torn tendon sheath in his right wrist. Third baseman Alex Rodriguez might return in July following hip surgery.
ōThese our obstacles you deal with, and you find ways to get over it ... thatÆs it,ö Cashman said. ōWe will. WeÆre not going to allow this to bury us.ö
Opening day starter CC Sabathia is coming back from left elbow bone spur surgery, and closer Mariano Rivera had knee surgery last year.

I have both 64 bit and 32 bit using the same GFS file system without any problem, and without doing anything to the filesystem.Also, from the release notes for GFS 6.1 http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/csgfs/release-notes/GFS_6_1-relnotes.txt --------------------- Increased total storage supportedRed Hat GFS now supports 8 terabytes of storage. For more information about Red Hat GFS requirements, refer to the Red Hat GFS 6.1 Administrator's Guide, "Chapter 2. System Requirements".--------------------- And if you are wondering about the guide, it again says 8 terabytes at
This needs some clarification. GFS 6.1 is capable of supporting multiple 16TB filesystems on 32-bit OS architectures and 8EB on 64 bit OS architecures. We are currently supporting multiple 8TB file systems and will officially support larger file systems in time. The point is GFS is a 64 bit filesystem, with the same on-disk layout, regardless of the CPU architecture of the cluster nodes.
You can also run mixed 32/64 architecures across x86/EM64T/AMD64/ia64. Obviously, mixed 32/64 combo's can not exceed 16TB.

Over 100,000 sign up for World of Warplanes alpha testing
Wargaming.net has announced that 100,000 folks singed up for the global alpha testing of World of Warplanes, its upcoming MMO aerial combat game.
"The player demand to participate in the alpha testing is impressive; it's a lot greater than we had anticipated," said the game's producer Anton Sitnikau. "I'd like to congratulate and welcome our first five thousand alpha test pilots and hope they enjoy the incredible flight experience. And, of course, we encourage others to apply – we have many more invitations to give away."
Funnily, the game's website has posted a warning to alpha testers regarding violating the NDA and even called out a few who have been permanently banned from the game as well as World of Tanks due to not keeping their traps shut.
If you would like to join the alpha, sign up here.
Thanks, Blue.

Released: May 01st, 1991
Running Time: 72
Director: Rick Savage
Company: AVG
Cast: Guillermo Pasada, Pablo (I), Steven Price, Lee Brock, Bobby Blue, Robb Barnes
Critical Rating: AA
Genre: Gay and Bi
The plot has nothing to do with the military, folks—it centers on a handyman service that repairs toilets, sinks and such. Not much of an erotic mystique here, and the cast seems only too aware of the limitations. Slow editing and uneven videography don't help matters much. The four sexual episodes are nonetheless worth watching—if you don't demand a believable context for what you're seeing.

STUDENTS have been combining their studies with fundraising at Southampton Solent University, with their efforts so far raising £50,000 for good causes.
Some £2,000 has been raised this year alone by students studying the Event Organisation option unit on the BA (Hons) Adventure and Extreme Sports Management course, Sports Studies with Business, Football Studies and Marketing.
Every year up to nine groups of students are asked to fundraise £250 by organising a special event that is assessed by their tutors.
This year, these included a golf day, a blind date game show, a film night and a casino night. Causes benefiting from their money spinning work include The Rose Road Association; the Saints Foundation; Cancer Research UK; BBC's Children in Need and Barnardo's.
Liam Higgins, unit leader, said: "It is very hard work, and the students learn a lot about themselves and working with others."

Marvel Assembles an Official Title for Third "Avengers" Movie
Comic Books, Film
Young Bart Simpsons may have trouble sleeping because he's a afraid clowns will eat him but comic book writer Christopher Sebela has no such issues, and he's aiming to not only prove it but go one step further and document his one-month stay in the infamous Clown Motel in Tonopah, Neveda, dubbed the "Scariest Motel in America."
Sebela began a Kickstarter to help fund the experience, which he planned to document through photos and video and other services but mainly as a published e-book. However, Sebela quickly met the $4,500 goal, leading to some interesting stretch goals — including purchasing a clown suit he will wear in the room and maybe sleep in a few times, writing a short comic book about his stay and being joined by Terry Tyson who will conduct a seance at the motel. He surpassed all those goals already and his final $10,000 stretch goal is a documentary about the motel and Tonopah.
In less than two years, starting in September 2013, Matt Bors built up The Nib into one of the best comics sites on the internet, with a stellar roster of creators and a curated selection of short comics that offered profound insights into current issues. This was achieved with a combination of talent and money: Host site Medium paid Bors to edit the site and gave him a budget to pay contributors. This made it a significant player in the field of online and indy comics.
And then it all ended a few weeks ago with a vague post from Bors saying that The Nib would be changing, although it was not clear to what.
Well, now it has become clear: Bors has taken The Nib with him, and his first initiative is a Kickstarter campaign to produce a print volume, Eat More Comics! The Best of The Nib, with a lineup of creators that includes Josh Neufeld, Kate Leth, Sarah Glidden, and Erika Moen. The Kickstarter has a goal of $45,000, which covers not only production costs but also compensating the creators for the republication of their comics. The plan is to have the books out by Small Press Expo in September.
And then? Bors says in his post on Medium that he has reassembled his editorial team and has plans to do more online and print comics in the future.
Margaret Atwood wrote some of the best literary works of the modern era, both in terms of feminist novels and essays and in terms of all-around fascinating and engaging tales from multiple genres. So, news of Atwood contributing to an all-female anthology aimed at "geek girls" and consisting of non-fiction tales and comic strips about dating, love and sex comes as a really pleasant exciting surprise. But what's even more surprising and exciting is the fact that Atwood won't be contributing a prose piece: she'll be drawing a comic strip.
Few Kickstarter pitch videos are genuinely funny, but the one created by longtime collaborators Craig Rousseau and Todd Dezago for their new Perhapanauts campaign is one of them. Maybe that's why they're nearly halfway to their $15,000 goal just a day after the launch. It's amazing what you can accomplish with a Chupacabra puppet and an artist in a bear suit …
After a decade of releasing Perhapanauts first through Dark Horse and then Image Comics, Dezago and Rousseau are returning to self-publishing for the 64-page graphic novel The Perhapanauts: Into Hollow Earth, which continues the adventures of the operatives of Bedlam — taking them inside the Earth itself.
The era before World War II was known as the Belle Epoque, the Beautiful Age, in France, but that was for the rich. For the poor and the working class, it was a time of harsh conditions and few opportunities, and numerous anarchist groups sprung up amid the disenfranchised. Among them was the Bonnot Gang, ideological criminals whose anarchist principles led them to go on a crime spree in France in 1911-12, robbing banks and stealing from the rich (they were the first bank robbers ever to use a getaway car). The Illegalists is their story.
Or rather, it will be their story if the graphic novel is completed. Right now, writer Stefan Vogel is running a Kickstarter campaign to raise the funds to finish it. The artist is Attila Futaki, whose credits include the Image Comics series Severed (written by Scott Snyder and Scott Tuft) and the second Percy Jackson graphic novel.
Chainmail Bikini is a Kickstarter-funded comics anthology by and about female gamers — whether they play video games, board games or card games.
"The comics in Chainmail Bikini explore the real-life impact of entering a fantasy world, how games can connect us with each other and teach us about ourselves," organizer Hzel Newlevant explains on the Kickstarter page. "Alliances are forged, dice get rolled, and dragons get slain! We believe that gaming should be open to all, regardless of gender. Chainmail Bikini shows that while women are not always the target market for gaming, they are a vital and thoroughly engaged part of it, and are eager to express their personal take as players, makers, and critics of games."
With a week left in the Kickstarter campaign, industry veteran Jackie Estrada is still a little more than $6,000 short of the funding goal for her hardcover Comic Book People 2: Photographs From the 1990s.
As the title indicates, the planned 176-page book is a follow-up to last year's Comic Book People: Photographs From the 1970s and 1980s, and collects snapshots taken mostly at Comic-Con International, but also at other conventions and trade shows of the era.
Estrada, administrator of the Eisner Awards and co-publisher of Exhibit A Press, promises photos of Will Eisner, Jack Kirby, Stan Lee, Paul Norris, Nick Cardy, Neil Gaiman, George Perez, Frank Miller, Grant Morrison, Todd McFarlane, Rob Liefeld, Garth Ennis, Jeff Smith, Carla Speed McNeil, Paul Pope, Colleen Doran and more — about 600 shots in all.
Although he's long since departed this mortal plane, author H.P. Lovecraft left an indelible mark on people — Ben Templesmith among them.
A noted horror writer and artist in his own right, Templesmith is tackling a graphic novel adaptation of one of Lovecraft's earliest published works. Just four days after launching a Kickstarter campaign to fund the project, he's already raised more than five times his $14,800 goal. In the wake of such overwhelming success, Templesmith has expanded the graphic novel's size from 48 to 72 pages, and added in a Lovecraft portrait print with any book order.
What if aliens attacked, but were too small to see?
That's the story of the upcoming comic series Shrinkage, but as you can tell from the title, it has an extra helping of humor. Akin to Tim Burton's adaptation of Mars Attacks, Shrinkage mixes political humor with anxiety over alien invasion — and it comes from one of the writers of The Daily Show and Conan.
Two decades after the debut of Nocturnals, the fan base for Dan Brereton's pulpish horror-adventure shows little sign of dwindling.
Case in point: Within days of launching a Kickstarter campaign for Nocturnals: The Sinister Path, Brereton & Co. have surpassed their $30,000 goal by nearly $10,000.
The 64-page graphic novel, described as "the scariest, hard-boiled tale yet told in their saga," will be released in three editions: a softcover that will also be sold in stores; a limited sketch cover; and a wraparound hardcover with additional content.
After successfully funding the first two issues of Noir City through Kickstarter, writer Cody Walker is back with a decidedly different project: Everland, a collection of four connected tales set in a dark fantasy world that will likely be familiar.
Walker has collaborated with a different artist on each of the stories: Chris Yarbrough on "Surviving Everland," in which a fairy kidnaps a boy, who must survive in a jungle; Nate Peters on "The Boy-God Horror," in which a terrified pirate fights the Boy-God; Ryan Wheaton on "Mermaid Love," in which a shipwrecked pirate finds unlikely love; and Nathan Judah on "Monster Slayer," in which an Iroquois girl seeks revenge against a giant crab for the death of her father.
With eight days remaining in the Kickstarter campaign, Geeks OUT has surpassed its initial $15,000 goal to help fund Flame Con, "a super-queer comic con" to be held next year in New York City.
"We are over the moon with excitement!" the group said in a statement. " THANK YOU to all who have helped us take this huge step toward realizing such an ambitious goal."
After hosting plenty of smaller-scale events for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning fans, Geeks OUT is setting its sights on something bigger: Flame Con, "a super-queer comic con" to be held next year in New York City.
To make that a reality, the group has launched a Kickstarter campaign to raise $15,000 to help pay for a venue, promotion, guests and incidentals (organizers also hope to secure corporate sponsorship).
LeSean Thomas' fabled fantasy Cannon Busters series may finally be returning, only this time in animated form.
The TV animation producer/director/artist has launched a $120,000 Kickstarter campaign to fund an eight- to 10-minute animated pilot for Cannon Busters: The Animated Series, featuring contributions from the likes of Joe Madureira, Thomas Romain and Tim Yoon.
Superheroes come from all walks of life: journalists, scientists, school teachers, lawyers, even fast-food workers. But what about a DJ? In The Future Prophecy, two DJ sisters take on a dystopian version of Toronto under the control of a mutant army. But they aren't just any DJ sisters, they're creators — and real-life DJs — Sara Simms and Melle Oh.
So far, Simms and Oh have self-published two issues of The Future Prophecy, but to produce four more they've turned to Kickstarter.

Federal Reserve Asks Bank of America to Get Existential
And write its own 'Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook.'
Scarred by the failure and near-failure of so many banks in 2008, the Federal Reserve has reportedly asked Bank of America to have an emergency plan for what happens if its stock continues to fall. (It's down nearly 35 percent in the last three months.) The Fed was reportedly so concerned this summer that it asked Bank of America to draft what amounted to a Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook, in case it needed a quick hit of cash. Daily Intel has obtained the draft copies.*
• Kidnap former Countrywide CEO Angelo Mozilo, because he started this mess. Tie him to a dunk tank and charge $1,000 a throw for the chance to sink him.
• Bring back Ken Lewis as CEO to restore investor confidence by reminding everybody about how bad things used to be.
• Call the Fed's bluff and just liquidate all of its mortgage assets. You really want us to have cash so bad? Fine, it'll only cost you the economy.
• Bribe an actual oracle to tell Warren Buffett to give us more money, this time with less onerous terms.
Fine ideas, all. But the final decision was to offer something called "tracking stock" in Bank of America's Merrill Lynch, which would allow people to own a piece of the company, but not be able to vote on what the company does like a traditional shareholder. Should've gone with their first instincts.
*Not really, of course. You know us better than that.
