Vladimir Egorovich Yakovlev (Russian: Владимир Егорович Яковлев, born on March 8, 1959,[2] Moscow, RSFSR, USSR) is a founder and an editor-in-chief of the Kommersant Newspaper, the first Russian daily business-oriented newspaper.[3][4][5] He is a former CEO and owner of Kommersant Publishing house.[6][7][8][9][10] Yakovlev is considered to be one of the creators of the Post-Soviet format of Russian journalism.[11]
Early life and career[edit]
Vladimir was born into the family of the famous Soviet journalist Egor Vladimirovich Yakovlev.[12]
He graduated from the International Division of the School of Journalism of Lomonosov Moscow State University.[13]
Yakovlev was placed on a job in the Newspaper Soviet Russia. He then went on to work in the Magazine Rabotnitsa, the Sobesednik Weekly.[14] Up to 1988 Yakovlev was a correspondent of Ogoniok Magazine.[15][16][17]
Since June 15, 1988 Yakovlev was a founder and a president of Fakt informational cooperative society[18][19][20][21] (it was created in cooperation with Gleb Pavlovsky). Originally, the organization was created in the format of an information and reference service in order to "provide its potential readers – members of the booming cooperative movement – with facts: contact details, references, texts of regulatory acts and documents".[22]
In 1989 at the suggestion of the vice-president of Fakt, the USSR cooperators' union, Artem Tarasov[23] Yakovlev together with Gleb Pavlovsky started an independent news agency and newspaper Kommersant.[24][25] The pilot issue of the weekly newspaper was in December 1989.[26]
From 1989 up to 1999 Yakovlev was the owner and editor-in-chief of Kommersant Newspaper, which was the basis of the homonymous publishing house.[27] Since 1992 Yakovlev, being the majority shareholder, took up a post as CEO of Kommersant Joint-Stock Company (up to 1992 Vladimir was the editor-in-chief of the newspaper).[28]
Simultaneously, Yakovlev was engaged in various projects such as Domovoy Magazine, together with V. D. Drannikov, a famous journalist, but none became as famous as Kommersant.
In 1999 the majority of shares of Kommersant publishing house were purchased by Boris Berezovsky[29][30][31] and Badri Patarkatsishvili through the American Capital Group.[32][33] Kommersant Newspaper, Dengi, Vlast, Ogoniok, Autopilot, Sekret Firmy, Weekend, Citizen K. Magazines, Kommersant FM Radio station and Kommersant TV Channel were among the assets of the publishing group.[34]
After Kommersant[edit]
In 2007 Yakovlev became the CEO of Stream Continent Company, which was a content agency for cable television (an affiliate of Sistema Analytical finance company,[35] currently Stream Channel Joint-Stock Company).[36][37]
Since 2007 Yakovlev was a member of the board of directors of Sistemy massmedia, an affiliate of Sistema Analytical finance company, and in the same year he founded Content bureau.[38]
In 2008 together with Mikhail Prokhorov he created Zhivi! Media group.[39][40][41][42] The goal of the company was "launching and managing innovative media projects".[43] Vladimir Yakovlev's Content bureau LLC was a parent company,[44] while ONEXIM company had 90% of the shares.[45] The main projects of the company was Zhivi! (a project promoting a healthy lifestyle), including a homonymous channel, web-site and club; F5 (a newspaper and a web-site), Russian Pioneer Magazine[46] and Snob Magazine (a project invented by Yakovlev[47]). In 2009-2010 Snob expanded to the UK and USA[48] with availability via Barnes & Noble and regional hubs. Prokhorov invested $150 million in the launch of the magazine and website targeting highly paid professionals.[49][50][51]
At the end of 2011 Yakovlev stepped down as an editor-in-chief of the Snob project and president of the Zhivi! Media group.[52][53][54][55][56] Nikolai Uskov (Russian GQ) became the head of the company.[57]
In 2010 Yakovlev signed an open letter to the President of the Russian Federation asking for the quickest solving of crimes against journalists.[58][59] Editors-in-chief of Novaya Gazeta, Forbes.ru, Russkiy Reporter and others also signed the open letter.
In 2011 Yakovlev officially came down on the side of journalist Maxim Kovalskiy. According to Yakovlev, the journalist was fired for writing an article "which the government wouldn't have liked".[60][61][62]
In May 2012 Yakovlev started a new project called The age of happiness. It is dedicated to active ageing and is bilingual (Russian/English) [63]
Yakovlev is thought to be the author of New Russians[64] and Global Russians[65][66] clichés.
Yakovlev is one of the Perestroika publicists who created "russian newspeak" of the 90's:[67]
«This new generation – mostly the children of the men of the 60's such as Vladimir Yakovlev, Artyom Borovik, Dmitry Lihanov, Eugene Dodolev, Alexaner Lyubimov – are already taking their course. Being those of the gilded youth, having been brought up in huge apartments or having spent their childhood abroad, having graduated from the international division of the School of Journalism of Moscow State University, they now make a difference on the television and mass-media. The perfect takeoff and innate lack of fear allows them to remove taboos and visit all the hot spots where no Soviet journalist had been before»
Yakovlev received a letter of acknowledgement from the President of the Russian Federation on June 25, 1996 for active involvement of organization and conducting of the election company of the President of the Russian Federation in 1996.[68]
He is nominated man of the year in Journalism according to the Federation of Jewish Communities of Russia.[69]

Lex T. Drill offers up another mix of European and American girls that can take some serious anal punishment.

The European girls don't get interviewed, but they get it harder and rougher. Cory Everson takes on three dudes – aggressively humping them back with a nearly equal and opposite force. Sarah Twain gets two dicks stuffed in her butt. And after having Erik Everhard piston-pump her ass, Katy Caro gapes like a champ.

I need to create a couple of pages that display all posts in a certain category. Or if it's easier, I'll use tags.
I've found several posts about it, but the all assume a basic knowledge of something at some point, which I do not have.
I need a dummies guide to created a category page. Something that says "Click here, click there, type this, click there, click here, type this, enter this, type this, click here, click there" as if you're explaining the process to some half-wit, who is editing his website with both hands tied behind his back, using the Force.
OK, so I'm a little more savvy than all that, but I'd like a post that doesn't skip a step... There's one that came close and said "Grab the 'pages.php' and..." well, I couldn't find it. Maybe I've had one to many adult beverages, or maybe I'm just half a moron. Either way, I'm imploring someone's help here.

Time to ease off the Aquaman jokes, everyone. HitFix is reporting that Jason Momoa, the charismatic man-mountain behind Game of Thrones' Khal Drogo and the 2011 reboot of Conan the Barbarian, is going to play Aquaman in Zack Snyder's forthcoming Batman/Superman film.
Rumors regarding the decision have been floating around for a while (so much so that Momoa, 34, flat-out told people to stop asking him about it), and HitFix adds that Snyder already has the character's designs finalized.
HitFix notes that Momoa's Aquaman will not have a prominent role in the film, but the character's appearance will further set up the "Justice League" movie, which current buzz says is slated to be released in May 2017. Snyder's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is set to hit theaters in 2016, so begin ramping up your fervent speculation now.

As much as I love conspiracies, I'm not saying it's a conspiracy. What I am saying, however, is that human nature often appears to be somewhat conspiratorial.
And so when Detroit Pistons forward Rasheed Wallace is on the bench for almost all of the first halves of the first two games of the NBA Finals, I am not suggesting that the league's referees gathered in a room somewhere and collectively agreed, "Let's Get Rasheed."
But after all the grief Rasheed has caused the officials during his career, it is not too much of a stretch to say the officials aren't going out of their way to give Rasheed a break in what is the biggest series of his career.
It's only natural for men to be vengeful in such an instance. While officials are supposed to be impartial and unbiased, it would be considered abnormal if they did not hold some sort of grudge against a player who publicly admitted his strong dislike for them.
I am not defending Rasheed. I am not chastising the officials. But ye reaps what ye sows, and 'Sheed has sown a whole field of antagonism over the years.
At least in the early stages of the NBA Finals, it has cost him dearly.
One of the NBA's most difficult jobs is to make a fair call on a play involving Shaquille O'Neal. His mammoth body makes it virtually impossible to accurately determine whether he is being fouled or whether he is administering a great deal of punishment to the unfortunate player guarding him. Mark Madsen ate Shaq's elbow several times in the conference finals, and yet Madsen was called for fouling the elbow with his now-loose upper tooth, apparently.
Having said that, the early fouls called on Rasheed seem awfully ticky-tack to me. The first two fouls in Game 1 were reach-ins on Shaq, like a gnat grazing against a rhinoceros, and yet the officials sent Rasheed to the bench before he could even break into a frothy sweat and get his best pots of vitriolic soup boiling.
Rasheed stayed around a little longer in Game 2. But when he picked up his second foul, on Karl Malone, with 3:07 left in the first quarter, it meant Wallace had played all of 17 minutes in the first halves of the first two games because Larry Brown chose to sit him the entire second quarter of each game.
It's funny, because we have not heard a great deal about Wallace's volatile personality the past couple years, ever since he seemingly had as many T's in a game as he did points.
But there are two things to point out: First, officials have long memories, and don't think every one of them doesn't remember Wallace threatening an official on the back loading dock of the Rose Garden.
Secondly, while Wallace may have toned down his act some, he certainly has not stopped altogether. He still glares. He still curses. And he still doesn't give the officials much reason to like or respect him.
In the second half of Game 2, after 'Sheed had fouled Malone and Malone had missed the first free throw, Wallace could be heard yelling at an official, "The ball never lies. The ball never lies."
What that means, given Kobe Bryant's incredible shot at the end of regulation, I don't know. But it is just a stupid, playground thing for Wallace to say to an official. If there is one thing refs -- or anybody, for that matter -- don't like, it's to be shown up, particularly on national television during the sport's biggest showcase. Interestingly, when Wallace was asked about the officiating after the loss, he virtually ignored the question.
"I'm just out there playing," he said. "I could care less about how they call it."
Which clearly is not true. He cares very much. Or else he wouldn't go into his I-hate-the-refs schtick every time a call is made against his team during a game.
His coach, however, came to Rasheed's defense.
"I don't understand," Larry Brown said. "We throw the ball inside to Rasheed, and he goes to the line one time and he's out of every game early."
Larry? C'mon now. You don't understand? All you have to do is look at the guy's history to gain a considerable understanding of why he is being relegated to a $17 million cheerleader.
It's called tit for tat. It's as if the refs are saying, "Rasheed, remember that time you told me to go do something physically impossible with myself? Bam, take that foul." Or, "remember that time you called my mother the daughter of an Indonesian sewer rat? Bam, have a taste of your second foul and go take a seat.
"Oh yeah, and leave my mother, and Indonesia, out of it."
I know, I know, Brown is pulling one of the oldest coaching tricks and calling attention to a perceived injustice, hoping that it will partially solve the issue.
The problem is, technically speaking, Rasheed probably is committing fouls, which the officials can always point out to anybody accusing them of inaccurate game-calling.
Of course, technically speaking, a pipe bomb and an atomic bomb are both bombs, though they have drastically different effects.
For Rasheed, though, there is no difference -- and no benefit of the doubt.

The department and the graduate school will attempt to assist students who are A.B.D., who have passed all parts of the preliminary exam with funds for travel to one conference per academic year.
Those students who are not yet A.B.D., but have been invited to participate as a paper-giver or discussant at a major conference (e.g. American Anthropological Association, African Studies Association, and so forth) are also eligible for funding. These students should submit receipts to the department upon their return from the conference.
The amount available may change each year depending on the budgetary situation, and past precedents do not apply.
For the 2016-2017 academic year, ABD students may apply for funding for one conference, either $350 for a domestic conference or $700 for an international conference, except Canada. Students will be reimbursed for their travel after the conference after the conference has taken place and they have presented.
Students wishing to apply must do so no later than six weeks in advance of the conference, e-mailing their request to the DGS. Requests should include a brief letter of intent, a brief paper abstract and budget.
No reporting or withholding requirement is necessary since students are traveling on Duke Business; typically presenting a paper on behalf of Duke. Documentation is necessary to substantiate the type of program.
In addition to submitting a reimbursement request to the department, it is equally important that eligible students also submit a reimbursement request for conference travel support to the Graduate School for both domestic and international conferences.
GRADUATE SCHOOL ELIGIBILITY: Any graduate student enrolled in a Ph.D. granting program who has passed all parts of the Preliminary exam, submitted the prelim results to Academic Affairs, and is actively participating in a conference (i.e., presenting a paper or poster, or leading a discussion) is eligible.
Students are limited to one conference travel award per fiscal year (July 1-June 30).
Students attending conferences during the academic year must be registered at the time of the conference.
For summer conferences, students must be registered for the upcoming fall semester, and have been registered for the previous spring semester. No exceptions will be made.
Please click on the link below to access the conference travel award application and more information.

London's Pubs during WW2
Posted 13 April 2010 - 08:53 AM
Member (Mike) asked me to look at the misplaced/redundant
War Memorial section and I came across an interesting
Plaque in memory to employees of the brewery Watney
Combe & Reid Co Ltd, there are 12 pubs listed on this
Particular plaque and it got me thinking.
1/ How pubs were bombed during the raids on London are
There any figures?
2/ Did any of these pubs get rebuilt after the war and are
They still running today?
3/ Is there more of a story behind these bomb pubs below for
An example Mrs Florence A Hearn, did she have husband, did
He survive the war or was he on active service, KIA etc…?
A little about Watney Combe & Reid Co Ltd can be found
Here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watney_Combe_&_Reid
If any one lives in London maybe in these particular areas
Do they have something on the local history of WW2 that
Might mention something about these pubs?

A good place to start would be the relevant trade directories - during the war you're probably looking at Kellys. Electoral registers might be worth a look as well as they will show all adults living at the address. And if the Government would get their act together and release the 1939 'census' that would be useful too! Local records offices will have records about licensing too.
Particular Breweries have probably got records too, considering most have been succesively taken over their archives will be with either the succesor companies or in a local records office. Access to Archives and the National Register of Archives on the National Archives website should help with that.
There is an interesting website about Portsmouth Pubs here: The Pubs of Portsmouth

Searching this site on there for 'bombed' revealed a few more:
The Pubs of Portsmouth
(Edit - cross-posted with James above)
One turned up on Lostpubs for London searching 'bomb':
Sure a recent book on the V2s I read had some detail of hits on pubs too - will have a shufti.

"At 9:15 on 19 November, when the bars of The Crooked Billet in Southborough Lane, Bromley, were crowded with Sunday evening drinkers. A V-2 in the car park destroyed both the public house and surrounding premises, so that 23 people were killed"
(Crooked Billet later rebuilt as 'The Beckets')
"26 December .. The Prince of Wales, on the corner of Mackenzie Road & Holloway Road, which was crowded on that Holiday evening ... At 9.26 PM a rocket burst in the concrete roadway just outside, causing two craters one 40 feet across and 12 feet deep, the other 10 feet by 4 feet. ... ... ... The centre of the devastation ... was the Prince of Wales itself, for the cellar, normally the safest place in any building had become a death trap. It had been in use as a bar, and was crowded with drinkers, nearly all of whom were killed or badly injured. [Grimly 6AM 30 hours later, the casualty total was at] 64 killed, 86 seriously injured, 182 lightly injured and 4 still trapped."
An Essex V2:
"at Rottendon, 40 yds from the village pub, The Bell, which escaped with shattered windows, though two people were slightly hurt"
Back to London:
Mention of an unnamed pub damaged when a V2 hit the Plessey factory followed by
"Another public house destroyed ... was The Dick Turpin, the licensee, who was killed, being famous for sending a gift each month to 'regulars' now in the forces"
Brief mention of further London pubs destroyed or damaged:
"The George, Hayes ... & The White Horse Inn at Chislehurst, were both damaged within 4 hours on 9 February 1945, and The Bickley Arms, Chislehurst, joined the melancholy list on 26 March, the last pub in England to receive the Germans' attentions."
(Wonder which was the very first)
All the above quoted from Norman Longmate's 'Hitler's Rockets', a pretty engaging book.
From what he implies, the records of what exactly was destroyed in London were pretty well kept and thorough - no doubt someone knows how to access them better.

below from psywar.org member
My grandparents' house was destroyed during the Blitz in Greenford, north-west London. My grandmother was staying with a relative that night, so thankfully no casualties.
If I have the location correct it was on what is now called Ruislip Road, at the junction of the Greenford Road. There's a Lloyds-TSB bank on the bombsite now.
My grandparents moved into a prefab after the war and were later rehoused in a council house in the 1960's - they preferred the prefab!
More distressing for Greenford residents was the destruction of the local pub called "The Load of Hay" - I believe there were a number of people killed.

all the names on the plaque into CWGC site, very interesting
reading. Pyswar has got the name of the road right Ruislip Road
and the date of the bombing was the 25th Sept 1940.
I also found out that two of the landlords were Air Raid Wardens
and one was a Fire Guard, I am guessing that a landlord of
a pub was seen as being a pillar in the community and
maybe it was a familiar role for a landlord.
9 of the pubs were bombed in the height of the Blitz
1940 - 41 and 3 I would guess were victims of the
V1 - V2 bombs later on in the war. I posted a thread
with a google map showing V1/V2 bomb sites I'll see
if any of these pubs match the positions on the map.

Interesting thread, will follow this one and see if I can add anything as several V1s and 2s fell in my local area (OK we are Essex but this part is in Greater London).
Adam, I have a feeling the Plessey factory was in Ilford and there was a Dick Turpin pub in Newbury Park. Again will see what I can find when time permits (still doing the plaque thing!)

Saw this on another forum cited as a pub in Brum, WW2 period:
WW2 London bomb maps (link inside!)!)
Anybody know for sure where it is?
Had a mooch through IWM Collections for pics:
Overall view of the Prince of Wales incident mentioned above:
Aerial view from the north-west of the damage resulting from a V2 rocket missile which exploded in Mackenzie Road, Islington, London N7, England on the evening of 26 December 1944. Clearance work is still in progress on the site at which sixty-eight people were killed, eighty-six severely injured and one hundred and eighty-two slightly injured. 20 buildings were completely wrecked, including the 'Prince of Wales' public house where many of the casualties occurred.
Another Brum one (Sorry Kieron, drifting off London again):
Men and women walk past 'Ye Olde Nelson' public house on the corner of Temple Row and Bull Street in Birmingham. The pub has been slightly damamged by an air raid that destroyed the buildings that once stood next to it on Temple Row.
Further drifting... WW1 London:
A general view of the damage to the Eaglet public house, on the corner of Seven Sisters Road, London, following an air raid. A 50 kilo bomb was dropped during a raid on the night of 29- 30 September 1917. Timber and debris litters the street, and wooden blinds hang broken from the windows. In the centre of the photograph can be seen a pile of beer barrels which have slipped down from their shelving.
The original caption reads: A 50 kilo bomb had struck the pavement immediately at the foot of the building, penetrated obliquely into the pavement and exploded there, completely wrecking the ground floor and the basement, but leaving the upper storeys comparatively undamaged. Forty or fifty people from the upper floors had taken refuge in the rear portion of the basement and of these four were killed and 32 injured. If the bomb had struck the building or fallen a few feet away from it these people who had taken refuge in the portion of the building most likely to afford safety would probably have escaped injury.

Photo of it today here - White Horse, Soho, London pub guide | fancyapint?
And The Cricketers on Mitcham Green got one 22/23rd Sep 1940 -
Photo here - http://farm3.static...._127a3b8052.jpg
Notice the Fire Station is still next door.
In Lt Col Wakeling's book 'The Danger of UXBs" it says -
"Another bomb, a 500 Kg, fell through the Cricketers Arms at Mitcham and penetrated to a depth of 28 feet. The pub was adjacent to the Fire Brigade HQ and the Town Hall and its presence also interupted traffic between Reigate and Brighton. Captain Charles Coulton Stewart remained on site for two days, even though he had been advised to take sick leave as he was on the verge of a mental breakdown due to strain and overwork. He was awarded the George Medal for his devotion to duty."
I believe I read recently the pub had another connection with BD in that its landlord before the war(?) went into Bomb Disposal.

This is (or rather was) the Bear Inn, on Bear Flat in Bath
If you've seen the sequence of film with Harry Patch sitting in a car discussing his work with the ARP in Bath during the Baedeker Raids, The Bear was the building he was referring to.
Here's what the other side of Bear Flat looked like after the Luftwaffe had a go at it:
A modern pub - also called The Bear - stands on the site of the original today:

Credit Suisse Said to Face Two Years of Neil Barofsky
Neil Barofsky, a frequent critic of Wall Street and government bailouts, has been tapped to monitor Credit Suisse Group AG after the bank admitted to helping Americans evade taxes, a person familiar with the matter said.
Barofsky, the former inspector general of the Troubled Asset Relief Program who is now a partner at law firm Jenner & Block LLP, was chosen for the job last week by the New York Department of Financial Services, said the person, who asked not to be named because the selection hasn't been publicly announced.
Credit Suisse agreed to two years of oversight by New York's financial regulator as part of its $2.6 billion resolution with the U.S. Barofsky previously worked as a federal prosecutor in Manhattan with Benjamin Lawsky, head of the New York regulator. Lawsky is recused from the selection process.
Anthony Barkow, a partner of Barofsky's at Jenner & Block, will also be part of the oversight team, the person said.
Barofsky, 44, has criticized federal prosecutors for being too lenient on Wall Street and bankers whose actions fueled the 2008 financial crisis. He has lauded Lawsky as "a national force" who used his office "in ways no one could imagine."
After the Credit Suisse settlement, which included the first guilty plea by a global bank in more than a decade, Barofsky told Bloomberg News that "the Justice Department wants to be perceived as tough as nails while avoiding the collapse of a too-big-to-fail institution and other consequences."
'Deterrent Effect'
Barofsky said that "if there are very few collateral consequences, and the criminal plea is perceived as just another cost of doing business, then the deterrent effect will be minimal."
Credit Suisse on May 19 agreed to pay the largest penalty in an offshore tax case and pleaded guilty to using secret Swiss accounts to help Americans hide money from the Internal Revenue Service, concluding a three-year probe by the U.S.
Under the consent order, Barofsky will report on whether the bank has implemented internal controls to prevent the misconduct from happening again.
Barofsky declined to comment, as did Calvin Mitchell, a spokesman for Credit Suisse, and Caitlin Ferrell, a spokeswoman for the Department of Financial Services. Barkow didn't immediately return an e-mail seeking comment.

Jessica Alba in Designer Jeans
Jessica Alba in Stella McCartney
Jessica Alba and Honor Marie were spotted making their way around Brentwood, California. Jess carried her baby girl in her arms and they had lunch at the Coral Tree Cafe, with both ladies looking absolutely adorable. Jessica was wearing Stella McCartney jeans that have been seen on Victoria Beckham and Stella McCartney herself.
Jessica Alba in GAP Jeans
Jessica Alba, her husband Cash Warren and their daughter Honor Marie were enjoying some time at Beverly Hills Park in Los Angeles, California. Jess was wearing a pair of boyfriend jeans by GAP with a cute stripey tunic style tank. Those fruit juices look yummy! I want the red one! Buy these jeans here at GAP for only $69.50.

Jessica Alba in Domino Denim Jacket
Running errands in LA, Jessica Alba looks punky in a dark wash denim jacket from Domino Denim, which she paired with a floral dress. Motorcycle style denim jackets are a hot trend for spring, since they're lighter than a leather jacket. If you want this look for yourself, Gap makes an affordable version!
Jessica Alba in MiH Jeans
Jessica Alba wore a pair of MiH Marakeesh jeans in Reef while leaving a meeting in Brentwood, California. She looks beautiful as always, she really does know how to dress and her outfits have that little hint of uniqueness to them. Who is a fan of MiH jeans? I haven't tried the brand myself but everyone who wears them seems to look great!

WE ACCEPT GT35 GT3582 GT3540 T3 AR.70 4-BOLT FLOAT BEARING TURBO CHARGER 500HPS COMPRESSOR Description
High Compression/ Boosting Float Bearing GT35 Turbocharger
The GT35 turbocharger assembly is designed to be used on engines displacing 2.0L-4.5L and is typically good for around 600HP. They are also commonly used in twin turbo applications. In this case those figures would be doubled 4.0L-8.0L engines up to 1200HP. Horsepower ratings are generally meant to express the turbochargers maximum airflow capability. Recommended boost pressures are 7psi(.5 Bar) to 21psi(1.5 Bar) and boost pressures should not exceed 30psi(2 Bar). Exceeding 21psi(1.5 Bar) of boost pressure can significantly reduce a turbochargers lifespan. Generally speaking 14psi(1 Bar) is good for a 100% increase in horsepower from a naturally aspirated engine. Also factory non-turbo engines without forged internal components on high octane pump gas (91-92 octane) it is not recommended exceeding 7psi (.5 Bar) of boost. Doing so could result in damaging your engine.

I'm having trouble getting my dual monitors to work on a Latitude E7240 and an Eport replicator on Ubuntu 12.04. The two montiors and identical Acer V195WL, one connected VGA and the other DVI to the port replicator. When I open the Display Settings GUI it only shows one Acer montior and my laptop. I've unchecked Mirror Displays and it works between one Acer and the laptop but with both Acers plugged in it only shows one in the gui. The strange part is the image shows up on both Acers but only mirrored, I can't get it to show me all three displays (laptop, Acer1, Acer2) in the display settings. I just moved from a Toshiba Portege R700 on a docking station with the same two monitors and it worked just fine, all three displays could be used as non-mirrored.
I've tried the latest Intel Linux Drivers which installed but didn't seem to help.
Also Dell has a download for this model for Ubuntu 12.04 for chipset drivers, the one that caught my attention was intel-i915-backport-3.8-dkms_126.96.36.199_all.deb but I couldn't get that to install. It gave the errors

I want to make a website in both languages Arabic and English, in the way that I can change from Arabic to English from the upper menu. I want to make it as word-press based website and buy a theme to use it and base my website upon it. note that arabic is written from Right to left, so we have to take this into consideration as well. is there a possibility for that and how it can be done. if there any plugin I can do?
If your site has the same content in both languages, you may try the plugin I have written called Transposh, which allows you to handle this with ease.
Support for RTL languages is embedded, where the theme has support for this. On the default themes it works quite well.
If you have different content for different languages, there are other plugins to try, and the multisite route is also quite notable.
Good luck,

Commercial Job Opportunity Survey of McAllen, Texas
Date: August 1941
Creator: Jones, Willie W.
Description: "The survey of commercial job opportunities in the City of McAllen, Texas, was undertaken for the purpose of determining: 1. The numerical importance of training for the different kinds of local commercial positions. 2. The desired age, sex, training, and experience for employees in the different commercial positions of the City. 3. Information to be used in the revision of the commercial curriculum of the McAllen Senior High School and in the vocational guidance of students, and in the placement of graduates. 4. The importance and kinds of office equipment in general use locally. 5. The means by which employers of the City of McAllen, Texas, obtain commercial employees.

An Analysis of the Dallas Morning News Used Car Advertisements of Twenty Automobile Dealers for the Month of April
Date: August 1940
Creator: Evans, Ralph L.
Description: "It is the purpose of this study to determine the type of appeal, the size and cost, the plan of insertions, and the extent superlatives are used in The Dallas Morning News used car advertisements of twenty automobile dealers during the month of April. Fourteen advertising appeals were used by the twenty automobile dealers advertising in The Dallas Morning News in the month of April. The fourteen appeals used were: efficiency, friendliness, style, curiosity, safety, convenience-comfort, economy reliability-reputation, durability-dependability, social distinction, fear-caution, ambition, pleasure, and family affection. The economy was the one most used appeal by the dealer. As shown in Table 12, the number of advertising appeals used corresponds or exceeds very little the total number of advertising insertions. Excepting one case, the dealers place the largest advertisements in the Sunday paper. The general procedure was that of placing large advertisements in the Sunday paper and smaller ones throughout the week. The total cost for the twenty automobile dealers was $6,452.08. The total advertising cost per dealer ranged from $38.20 to $1613.81. Only nine of the twenty dealers used superlatives in advertising during the month of April. The nine dealers used nine different superlatives for a total of 281 ...

"It's strange talking about these works because they're more about a haptic experience than an intellectual one. It's difficult to verbally convey the experience of intimately coming to know an object or material over a long period of time by handling it or repeating a physical process or set of actions. I think it has something to do with the space inside them. You can't see it, and I don't know what it is, it's unaccountable. When looking at them I'm aware that I'm looking through a hole punch, and I like the bog-standard ordinariness to it. When I first showed them, I went back to have look at them and saw a spider crawl out of one of the holes; it made sense to me."

To Our Love (A Nous Amours)

|Sandrine Bonnaire, Evelyne Ker, Dominique Besnehard, Maurice Pialat, Anne-Sophie Maillé
|Maurice Pialat
|Daniel Toscan du Plantier
|Arlette Langmann, Maurice Pialat
|Triumph Releasing Corporation
Description: Director, co-writer, and star Maurice Pialat brought his typically unblinking New Wave style and interest in socially aberrant behavior to this psychological drama, winner of two Cesars (the French equivalent of the Oscar) for Best Film and Most Promising Young Actress (Sondrine Bonnaire). Bonnaire plays Suzanne, a 15-year-old girl who has become sexually promiscuous with anyone who will have her, despite her lack of affection for any of her lovers. The only boy she refuses is Luc (Cyr Boitard), whose feelings for Suzanne are sincere. When Suzanne's beloved father (Pialat) abandons his increasingly neurotic wife (Evelyne Ker), Suzanne's depression and lack of direction deepen. While her mother becomes a screeching mental case, her brother Robert (Dominique Besnehard) begins beating her, although he also harbors a disturbing attraction to Suzanne. In the denouement, Pialat depicts the devastating long-term results of Suzanne's abusive upbringing. Pialat draws powerful performances from his cast, with no finer example than the riveting acting Bonnaire -- in only her second film.~ Karl Williams, All Movie Guide

The GAN gene provides instructions for making a protein called gigaxonin. Gigaxonin is involved in a cellular function that destroys and gets rid of excess or damaged proteins using a mechanism called the ubiquitin-proteasome system. The ubiquitin-proteasome system is a multi-step process that begins with the activation of a protein called ubiquitin. With the assistance of other proteins called ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes and ubiquitin ligases, the ubiquitin attaches to a targeted protein. When a chain of ubiquitin proteins is attached to the targeted protein, the protein is recognized and destroyed by a complex of enzymes called a proteasome.
Researchers believe that gigaxonin belongs to a group of ubiquitin ligases called the BTB/kelch superfamily. These ubiquitin ligases help ubiquitin target specific proteins for destruction. Gigaxonin targets proteins that must be broken down in order for the cytoskeleton, the framework that gives structure to cells, to develop properly.
Several mutations in the GAN gene have been identified in people with giant axonal neuropathy. Some mutations change or remove one of the protein building blocks (amino acids) used to make gigaxonin. This type of alteration affects the shape of the gigaxonin protein, preventing it from binding to other proteins properly to help organize the structure of neurons. Other mutations result in the absence of any functional gigaxonin.
Absence of functional gigaxonin leads to accumulation of proteins that should have been destroyed by the ubiquitin-proteasome system. This accumulation of proteins results in disorganization of the cytoskeleton.
In nerve cells (neurons), the absence of functional gigaxonin results in abnormally large, densely packed accumulations of neurofilaments, an important part of the cytoskeleton. Neurofilaments are particularly abundant in axons, the long nerve cell extensions that transmit signals to other cells.
The excess neurofilaments that build up in the axon as a result of a deficiency of functional gigaxonin result in distended or giant axons that do not transmit signals properly. Affected axons eventually deteriorate, causing problems with movement and sensation. The giant axons are commonly seen in the peripheral nerves, which carry signals between the brain and spinal cord (central nervous system) and other areas of the body. However, neurons in the central nervous system can be affected as well.

Yes, the German Court ruling helps but this company ismn't the same as its trailing data suggest.
It's got the best manufacturing of the "position sensors" (my phrase) used by Apple & others; a novel high voltage chip that improves the efficiency of the inverters that convert low DC power to high voltage AC power in Solar Panels; chips for radar application for cars (eg"brake, you idiot"); and it has restructured its workforce.

Rag & Bone jeans
Eva Longoria in Rag & Bone Zipper Skinny Jeans in Yellow
Eva Longoria was spotted heading to the Ken Paves Salon in Los Angeles, California. The actress wore an older pair of jeans by Rag & Bone, the Zipper Skinny in Yellow.
I think some congratulations are in order for Eva. She recently earned her masters degree this past week. That is a great feat that deserves to be recognized. You can click here to purchase Rag & Bone from their website.

Khloe Kardashian in Rag & Bone Skinny Jeans in Bright White with Holes
Khloe Kardashian heads into her sister Kim's house while filming scenes for their reality show. Khloe wore head to toe white, pairing a graphic white tee shirt with her Rag & Bone Skinny jeans in Bright White with Holes.
Wearing so much white can definitely be a difficult look to pull off, but I think Khloe looks good here. I think the fact that she paired the look with simple black heels keeps the outfit from looking too fussy.What do you think of her outfit? You can buy Rag & Bone jeans online from SSENSE.

Nicki Minaj in Rag & Bone The Skinny Jeans in White
Nicki Minaj posed for photos at the 'American Idol' Finale Results Show live at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles, California.
Nicki wore a pair of Rag & Bone The Skinny Jeans in White with a black leather jacket and furry boots. I think these fit her really well, apart from the knee area which is a little baggy, but everywhere else they look great! Buy these jeans online at Shopbop.com.

Zoe Saldana in Rag & Bone The Skinny Jeans in Indigo Tattered Hempstead
Zoe Saldana was photographed while catching a ride to the airport. She is busy promoting her latest film in the Star Trek series, Star Trek Into Darkness.
Zoe tends to take a lot of risks on the red carpet, but her casual style seems to be a lot more traditional, especially when it comes to jeans. We tend to see her out in dark wash skinny jeans or flares frequently, but she certainly seems to prefer distressed washes, like this pair of The Skinny Jeans from Rag & Bone in Deep Indigo Tattered Hempstead. You can buy these jeans from SSENSE for $220.00.

It was fun to surprise him a gift like that. Its pretty hard to surprise him with gifts.
The timing was pretty good also. (and amusing.. )
The other night at dinner he was telling me how he finally kept the bunnies out of his yard (they were killing his lawn) by putting chicken wire in strategic places.
Well, when I dropped the rifle off I look out into his yard.....yep 2 bunnies.
I don't give them long.
I told my Dad they were out there and he says " WHAT!!!??......Why those little bastards!"
That made me laugh.

I've been reading this thread for over six months now. (The first couple months was simply to catch up)
Today is my 30th birthday. It is also the day I join the Marlin 39a club. For my birthday, my fiancee gave me a brand new Marlin 39a.
As I am at work, I cannot post the pictures yet. These will follow later tonight.
I love the dark walnut- such an elegant weapon.
I can't wait to get it to the range. (Probably have to wait till tomorrow as my Fiancee has plans for tonight.)
"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

Wow! You definitely have a "keeper" there, that's for sure.!
Oh, and your fiancée sounds pretty nice also.
Welcome to the 39 Club, I can guarantee you'll love the rifle as soon as you shoot the first shot. Take her to range with you, maybe she'll want to get one for herself. Nothing wrong with having his n' hers 39's.

I'm one of those who has coveted a Marlin 39 since I first saw one when I was 12 in the early '50s. Finally bought a new one last year. Met all expectations after a few false starts. Looking now for an older Mountie.

Marlin model 39A
This is my Marlin 39A. Pictures are poor I know. Presentation grade wood from the factory but redone by former Browning gunsmith Art Isacson in Hillsboro, Mo.

Magazine article - Marlin Golden 39A
The July issue of Rifle magazine has a very good article on the 39 by John Haviland. He does some comparing of a new one to a borrowed 1950 model.
Very informative and worth reading.
Just a heads up, sorry if this has been mentioned already, didn't see it if it was.

We're glad you posted first here.
Hang out. Pretty chill crowd
who appreciate 39.
Comin' up for air
in an intense business time.
(Pretty sure I'm preaching to th' choir ...)
Been thinking again about getting said 39
cut down (barrel wise) to the length
of the 1894C ...
Just something about carbines ...
9, .22, .30-30, blades & sticks. Fun.

Rodbinkc: That may be your first post but now we expect a range report, pictures, hunting tales and of course entries in our friendly rimfire competitions.
So far just MalH, JohnMcl and me are the only 39 entries for the June match. Fast Frank is shootin' today (hopefully) but I'm not sure if he's shooting his 39 or the tack drivin' Marlin model 60 or something else or all of the above.

Crucial time in the bidness for the next three months.
(Nearly went under last month, but now have a new business plan that's looking most excellent.
We've already turned it around, now must stabilize and grow it during summer,
traditionally our most challenging business season ...
but with hard work, I can do it ...
then, I can go shooting again ...

I plan to give my 39A a good, long overdue session this holiday weekend. Looking forward to it!

Just pulled my 39a straight stock mountie 20" with an L serial number(1954) with a Bushnell Banner 4x. Had it since '55'. I think I bought it from western auto, if any remember that. The scope was purchased sometime in the '60's Was the first purchase with my paper route money The Akron Beacon Journal was the paper, don't know if it's around anymore. Of all the guns I own, maybe a dozen or so, this is the one that evokes the memories. Many a day was spent with this gun and a box of 500 winchester yellow box super X lubaloy rounds. Accurate? fagetaboudit. It seems I do this about every 5 years, check it over, wipe it down and put it back.

I sure am glad I stumbled across this forum. I just bought a new 39A and only have about a week before our Australian gun laws allow me to pick it up. I can't wait to try it out on the range the following weekend.

Hi Queenslander - another Aussie with a 39A - good to hear! I picked up a new one a few weeks ago and have barely put it down!

I don't know if I like waiting for my new 39A or not. Only 2 days before I am allowed to pick it up. I am having a lot of fun but the anticipation is killing me.
Yesterday, I had to do something for relief. I hadn't yet received word that my permit to acquire was completed. I have always found the gun licencing staff in Queensland government good to deal with. I knew it was getting close for my paper work to be completed. I phoned them yesterday and told them that I would be going down to the capital on Monday (I live in the country about 3 hours away) and asked how long I would have to wait. They assured me that my paperwork will be done on Monday ready for me to pick up my Marlin. It is unusual for a government department to be so cooperative - but they are.
So far I have ordered a skinner sight for my Marlin 39A. It has already arrived from the USA. It's great to get such quick service and at the same price internationally as in the USA (no postage costs). I also have a mount for a scope and a Weaver fixed x4 shotgun scope for it (bought at an incredible special price from Nantchez in the USA), to be used if my tired old eyes are unable to make use of the skinner. I also have the Marlin 39A video on its way to me and the takedown book on the 39A (bought on ebay). And - I have printed all 63 pages of these Marlin 39A club threads. It is a volume on its own. I am now trying to go through it and make up an index. It is full of valuable information.
The extra good part - this time next week I will on the range using my Marlin. This is almost heaven. I hope next week will be heaven. I feel like a kid again waiting for my Christmas presents to be opened.

I finally have my Marlin 39A. It is a beautiful rifle. So far I have only played with it. I am surprised at the smoothness of the action and the lightness of the trigger pull (there is no trigger creep at all). From all the reading, I had expected some problems in those areas with a new 39A but that hasn't eventuated. The action appears smooth and the trigger is firm but doesn't appear too heavy. Maybe I will have a different opinion once I get it to the range and use the rifle, but I doubt it. Maybe it is simply a case of expecting them to be worse because of all that has been written when new 39A's have been compared to the smooth action on the Henry's and the trigger pull on older 39's. Maybe it is all relative and I am lucky I don't have another lever action to compare mine to.
I initially fitted a Skinner sight to the Marlin. It looked like it was part of the rifle. Unfortuately, unless I wear my glasses, my eyes have trouble seeing the front sight. And if I am going to use it for hunting, I don't like to walk through the bush with glasses on (my glasses are those ones that have a variable focus depending on where you are looking - I lose my balance easily if I am wearing them and move about). I could probably get away happily with using the skinner at the range with glasses on, but not for hunting without the glasses - and I want to be able to practice consistently with the same setup for both events. It is nothing to do with the Skinner sight, just my poor eyesight.
As much as I didn't want to do it, I eventually fitted my fixed (x4) Weaver shotgun scope. I'm glad I did. The optics are crystal clear and because of its small size it doesn't appear to have much effect on the balance or weight of the rifle. My tired old eyes are happy with this scope and rifle setup. I am also happy with the appearance of this scope. If any lever action looks made for a scope it is the Marlin. The rifle looks great with this little scope on it.
I probably wasted a small amount of money on the sight base. I paid $50 Australian for a base and rings one piece that was specifically made of the 39A. I didn't realise that a different base came with the rifle that allows you to use your own rings. I did happen to have a spare set of BKL rings that could have fitted onto this base.
The wood on my rifle has a very nice grain to it. The only minor blemish I could see is that the metal to wood fit could be better in a few places. I can't wait to get to the range next Sunday.

Congratulations on your purchase Queenslander!
It is a great and fun rifle to shoot! I dont think you wasted money on the scope mount. Some have had problems with the one that comes with the rifle from what I have heard. But also I recommend shooting using the Iron sights also for some additional fun.
Also when you go to the range, be sure to try various types of ammo. Rifles tend to work better with one brand over anothe. My rifle likes CCI and Federal premium. But whenever I use Winchester loads, I have extration problems. My friends rifle has almost an opposite problem with federals lol.
Have fun though it shoots great!
