Good News For Yankees Fan Who Caught Jeter's 3,000th Hit
His tax situation still isn't quite clear, but it looks like New York Yankees fan Christian Lopez is going to make out OK.
As we reported Wednesday, some experts were saying that Lopez might face a tax bill of up to $14,000 because of the gifts he was given by the Yankees last week after he graciously returned the ball that shortstop Derek Jeter smacked into the stands for his 3,000 career hit in the major leagues.
Now, USA Today reports, "several savvy marketers — including MillerCoors, Modell's Sporting Goods and Steiner Sports Marketing — are offering wads of cash" to the 23-year-old Lopez. Miller has offered to pay any tax bill. Modell's is donating 5 percent of its Yankee merchandise sales to Lopez this week. Steiner Sports is auctioning some memorabilia and will donate a minimum of $25,000 from the proceeds to the fan.
New York's Daily News adds that Modell's President Mitchell Modell has given Lopez "his Yankees-issued 2009 World Series ring, valued at $40,000."
On top of all that, Topps is producing a Christian Lopez trading card.

miley with a job? what?
Myabe I'm not reading closely, but could someone explain Hannah's comment re: Marigold? Mar's just playing frisbee, and I didn't see anything Miley-esque in the previous panels. Is this an overall comment, or referring to something specific?
What's "orbiting the moon" mean? I'm lost, even after trying to google it.
Sean's probably that guy that can't stand being in the water (can't swim?) and I love Eve in that 3rd panel. Hannah, get off that phone and stop thinking about work! You're supposed to be camping! It's like a mini vacation!

Ink + Markers on 8.5"x11" cardstock
great work.
Why hasn't there been a remake of this yet?
Nice, very nice
Gorgeous coloring and I love her relaxed, but sexy pose. Nice job with the shading work, too
wow, i love all womens than you draw
Her sword is awesome!
Um? ....When is Red Sonja not "busty"?
Very very cool.
good job!
Amazing artwork!
very great job and very sexyly done
Awesome work here
Gah, and I was just about to commission you to do a Red Sonja pic. Oh well, I very likely still will, haha.
More Read Sonja is always good!
Sexy pose, sexy face, sexy bod. Just lose the sword and we're good to go!
Is there any other kind?
You can never go wrong with Red Sonja.
very nice
I love the pose
Very nice drawing, but you should definitely work on your ability to draw boobs, especially after taking a look at your gallery. You need to take into account physics and anatomy, yo.
Thanks! But... why bring the real world into something that clearly isn't real? Just curious as to why some people feel realism needs to be implemented. Would you get onto, say, Bruce Timm for his style not exactly working with anatomical realism? (not trying to sound angry, just asking)
If your drawing style was a lot different I might not make this comment. Like, I'm not bothered by Kim Possible's boobs being impossibly pointy, because that style is extremely cartoonish and caricaturized, but in my opinion, there's only a certain distance that can be carried by stylization, and many artists(including Bruce Timm, judging by my quick google image search) use stylization as an excuse. After looking through aforementioned google image search, I'd probably say the same thing to Bruce Timm as I said to you. Like, fudging the physics a little in a stylized drawing is one thing, but people often take it wayyyyy too far when it comes to oversexualizing female characters(I'll stay away from the feminism rant though). You are not the biggest "offender"(not really the right term but you get the gist) by far, but it just bothers me to see things like this. Like just a quick look at the tumblr boobsdontworkthatway.tumblr.com will show you /just/ how bad it gets.
I'm interested to know what kind of markers you use to color your work. It always looks great. Any tips perhaps?
traditional? dafuq? it looks like digital xD
Cool paint
beautiful work man!
The trendsetter for the chain-mail bikini
i like the one where she was holding up her chest with chaned handcuffs this one is good to
I'm more interested in what her little metallic bottom piece reveals.
A friend of mine once said that about this gorgeous woman we saw walking along the street about a year ago...
Poor guy is still in therapy.
Oh, and good picture. Sir, you always remind the rest of us how much we stink at art by being so good at it.

Oh, and good picture. Sir, you always remind the rest of us how much we stink at art by being so good at it.
Bit redundant title...
Nothing redundant about those titties!
Oh, 'title'
Oh, 'title'
Title! TITLE!!
The woman's name alone should be what perfect boobs in a bikini top are called. Perfect boobs period!
Who cares that you'll lose your head - and not in the good way - if you try yo put a hand on them.

Viewer Comments: Carpal Tunnel Syndrome - Describe Your Experience
Patient Comments & Reviews
The eMedicineHealth doctors ask about Carpal Tunnel Syndrome:
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome - Describe Your Experience
Tell us about your experience with carpal tunnel syndrome.
Comment from: Gorzquinn, 55-64 Male (Patient) Published: November 04
While recovering from torn distal bicep surgery, I noted the initial signs and symptoms four to five weeks post-surgery. The adjustable elbow brace I wore for a two months 24/7 I believe created the problem (carpal tunnel syndrome). This brace is designed to support and restrict, and adjusted over a period of time so the arm and elbow can return to normal function. During my recovery, the focus is on repaired torn distal bicep, the brace is designed to limit and restrict movement. It is here the 4 straps of this device are applying pressure to your upper and lower. The amount of tension applied to these straps create a force of pressure and over a period of time will cause problems like mine. Therefore, the use of the adjustable elbow brace should be reviewed.
Comment from: Bongo,Herts, 65-74 Female (Patient) Published: September 09
I had been in constant pain at night in both hands for ever and eventually went to my doctor who in turn sent me to a specialist. He diagnosed carpal tunnel syndrome and advised that I should have the procedure. I had the left hand done 5 years ago because I am right handed and also disabled so thought I would not have that hand done first. Well, the left hand is fine but the right hand was getting worse and driving me crazy so I had the operation Tuesday under local anesthetic. The pain is still intense and the numbness is still apparent, so I don't think it worked but I will persevere with it as it is only 5 days ago. I am still in a dressing and bandage and due to go to my doctor Friday for a checkup, but the nagging dull pain I got at night has gone and I am sleeping better. I will just have to wait and see if it improves.
Comment from: Lynne, 65-74 Female (Patient) Published: November 18
I have recently purchased a mattress topper and it has really improved my carpal tunnel syndrome condition. It is not waking me up every morning. Hope this may help other sufferers.
Comment from: earlbowden, 45-54 Male (Patient) Published: August 27
My tarsal tunnel syndrome started about eight years ago. My feet started to feel as if they were burning. I thought it might just be my shoes, or socks, or just tired feet. But the burning didn't go away, it got worse over time. It was almost unbearable some days. Then I started getting the tingling and numbness. I finally went to the doctor, and he did some diabetes tests and then prescribed some medicine. It took a couple of tries, but we finally settled on Amitriptyline and Lyrica. They worked, somewhat. The side affects included drowsiness - I had zero energy almost all day long, and I would fall asleep soon after getting home from work, causing me to not be able to get to sleep later in the night when I usually went to bed. We adjusted the strengths and times for the medicine, which did help with the drowsiness, but then the strength of the medicine wasn't enough to give me any real relief from the pain. By now, I'm getting shooting pains all over my feet, too. I'm about going out of my head with the pains, the numbness, and the tingling. I think I may have found doctors who can help with surgery, but I found out they don't work with my insurance carrier. I'm that close, and now I can't pay for relief. Hopefully I can work something out with these doctors or with my insurance carrier. Maybe there's other doctor's in the Denver area that do the surgery, and can work with my insurance company.
Comment from: Paul F., 25-34 Male (Patient) Published: August 27
I started my new job six months ago as a script writer, so I spend a lot of time at my new desk. I started getting numbness in my left hand and fingers and then pins and needles. It's almost a constant thing now; it's really painful to sleep, as most positions hurt. I have recently been diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome. I had the nerve conduction tests (I nearly passed out) that diagnosed the problem. The doctor is suggesting surgery. I just want my hand back to normal.
Comment from: 45-54 Female Published: February 04
I was having pain, numbness, tingling in my hands for 2 years. The pain got worse was awakening from the pain. A year ago I was tested and they said I had carpal tunnel. They told me I needed surgery. I didn't have time to take off from work and I didn't want to go under the knife so I waited another year. Well I just had the surgery 4 weeks ago. The first week I felt better still had numbness but not that sharp pain. Two weeks after the surgery I started getting pain around the thumb and the middle of my hand. Now the pain is worse now than before the surgery. The pain shoots all the way up my arm. Just think before you decide to do the surgery. You might be worse off like me.
Comment from: lilac, Female (Patient) Published: January 28
My carpal tunnel syndrome started about a year ago. I went to my doctor who diagnosed me with severe carpal tunnel syndrome. My doctor is suggesting surgery, but I don't want to go under the knife. I went to my masseuse and had her massage my hands for almost one month. Finally, my carpal tunnel syndrome has gone and don't need to undergo operation.

The Rumble Strips and a Tipsy Wake-Up Call
Alarm Clock
Friday's Pick
- Song: "Alarm Clock"
- Artist: The Rumble Strips
- CD: Alarm Clock EP
- Genre: Indie-Rock
The Rumble Strips' music sounds lifted from an era when seven-inch singles were the norm and post-punk British bands approximated old soul records using a limited skill set. Those R&B-inspired rock tunes sounded just wrong enough to emerge as something new and very right.
Singer-songwriter Charlie Waller evokes the passionate yowl of XTC's Andy Partridge and Dexys Midnight Runners' Kevin Rowland, and he sings of the usual stuff: Girls and Weather, as The Rumble Strips' debut CD title indicates. But he's also a bright wit, as on "Alarm Clock."
The song finds Waller wanting to smash his nagging (and seemingly anthropomorphic) alarm clock, because it won't stop urging him to get out of bed and find a job: "Well, I don't like doing things / that other folks tell me to do / So I hit him with a hammer / and now he's quite subdued."
As Waller fights the urge to join the rat race with the aid of a manically strummed guitar, sax-and-trumpet blasts animatedly back up his decision to lay low. If the English band sounds slightly tipsy, that may well be because it is. Raw skills, however, can't hide the witty, warm and inviting soul in The Rumble Strips' songs.
Listen to yesterday's 'Song of the Day.'

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Mar 01st, 2005
Running Time: 136
Director: Dick Hooker
Company: Playhouse
Cast: Julia Crow, Sharon Babe, Jackie (I), Luisa de Marco, Lucy Lee, Angelina (I), Lea De Mae, Tori, White Rose, Kirsty, Kathy Anderson, Milly
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
This should do well in your lesbian section.
Although the girl/girl sex that goes on in Lip Lickers is somewhat standard stuff, the girls involved are anything but standard. These 12 European babes range from good to smoking hot. And while it would likely be more satisfying for most porn fans to watch these babes get plugged by some good ol' American cowboy cock, the girl/girl market will only be improved by Lip Lickers.
Four of the scenes are simple one-on-ones. Two of the scenes are threeways. And every scene features at least one girl who gets an item stuffed into her butt.
Lip Lickers is for those fans who weigh beauty more heavily over nastiness. Although, the nastiness isn't too far behind.

I provided you with the information you need. I have been involved with running the Challenge for the last 6 years with the exception of 2008, which I was out of the country for a wedding the weekend of the event. From reading your last several posts it indicates to me that you have no idea what the Challenge or the current tournament scene is all about. I think that you should do some research, maybe even play an event before talking "bigger payouts". Where do you think the money comes from? We have people that work hard to raise that, and if you have an avenue to secure more, I'm all ears. We added cash to even the amateur field last year to help cover the costs of the sweet player packages ALL amateurs got, along with having three disc golf vendors (one local, one from Madison, WI, and one from Kansas City) provide a means for amateurs to spend their funny money winnings. The professional payouts for the last three First Class Challenges are here:

About Blizzard92
Ph.D. Student - Earth System Science (UC Irvine), B.Sc. - Atmospheric Sciences (Cornell University)
By: Zachary Labe , 2:03 AM GMT on February 14, 2010
A northern stream shortwave will rotate through the 500mb charts in the form of an enhanced clipper in the Monday-Tuesday time frame, which will redevelop near the coastal front enhancing moisture/precipitation from West Virginia to Maine. A moderate snow axis is likely to develop slightly north of the track. Sunshine prevails much of the rest of the week before wavelengths favor another increasing chance of cyclogenesis in the 7-8 day time frame towards next Sunday.
"Afternoon Thoughts" (Updated 2/13)
Navigating through south-central Pennsylvania is a daunting task and one that takes you through perhaps a northern New England winter instead of the Middle Atlantic. Drifting snow is more of the common place instead of a brown horizon line along the southern edge of the Appalachians. Perhaps it is more reminiscent of a Norman Rockwell winter scene than typical winters. With children sledding down hills at every corner and snow mounds continue to grow, it appears finally our wishes of a snowy winter have laid their mark here in the Middle Atlantic. Considering snow depths near 40in on the north side of the Blue Mountain here in Harrisburg, it is likely that will not melt for a few more weeks as the region remains under the threat for more snowfall and colder temperatures. I suppose this is what it is likely every winter for those along the Great Lakes where powdery snow drifts from day to day higher and higher and some roads just never seem to see asphalt for days on end. Driving around the mountain valleys north of Harrisburg reminds me of a trip up towards Potter and Tioga Counties of Pennsylvania where deep snow cover was persistent especially on the north side of mountains where there is little sunshine. My statistics already have this month being the snowiest ever on record for Harrisburg surpassing January of 1996, but KMDT is a few inches behind which will likely occur Monday night. This will likely make February 2010 the snowiest month ever on record in the Harrisburg area with records dating back to 1888. The snowier than normal winter was an obvious call back in the fall as a record low negative AO below -4 in correlation with a moderate to strong El Nino is a recipe for a wintry forecast for the eastern seaboard. As for what this all equates for in summer is still up in the air for now and pure speculation, but something to monitor. For those interested in a climatology perspective on snowy winters and the preceding summer, take an interesting read in "The Pennsylvania Weather Book" by Ben Gelber. Anyways for those of us in the Northern Middle Atlantic enjoy this unusual amount of snow and ignore those New Englanders who are finally getting a taste of what it is like here in the Middle Atlantic, hahaha. Have a wonderful day!!!

"Current River Ice Reports and Ski Conditions" (Updated 2/13)
Excellent ski conditions are occurring statewide in Pennsylvania favoring areas south of interstate 80. In fact many would argue these are the best conditions since January of 1996. Heavy snow has wreaked havoc for transportation and travel concerns, but it has certainly helped the skiing industry especially with the renewed interest in winter sports courtesy of the Winter Olympics 2010. The Laurel Highlands have been basking in plentiful snowfall with Seven Springs reporting now over 140in of natural snowfall for the 2009-2010 winter season with over 55in of natural snow in the past seven days. Several natural snow trails have recently been opened. Blue Knob Ski Area is also nosing over the century mark for seasonal snowfall coming in a hair lower at just over 90in of snow. Four Seasons Hidden Valley in the Laurel Highlands is also reporting excellent conditions with over 50in of natural snow in the past seven days. With below normal temperatures under a northwest cyclonic flow, conditions could not get any better with little snow melt courtesy of dense cloud cover from upsloping over the Laurel Highlands. Although partially frozen Lake Erie is limiting lake effect snow down to nuisance amounts with orographic lift aiding in an additional 3-5in of snow across the Laurel Highlands Saturday night. As subsidence inversion levels lower, the light snow shower activity will begin to subside towards Sunday morning with clearing skies for the entire state of Pennsylvania. Across the south-central Mountains skiing conditions are the best in over a decade at least with Ski Whitetail picking up nearly 50in of natural snow at the summit this month. Ski Roundtop and Ski Liberty have also picked up nearly 40in of natural snow with all resorts at 100% operating conditions. No new snowfall is expected through Monday morning. Across the Poconos and north central mountains conditions have been excellent, but fresh natural snow has not been as heavy as the southern half of the state. Ski Sawmill recently picked up 10in of snow from the past storm with areas towards Blue Mountain Ski Area up through the Poconos receiving around a foot of snow or so with a bit more in some areas towards 2ft. So generally for now the best conditions appear to be at Ski Whitetail and Seven Springs down through Wisp, Maryland near Deep Creek where snowfall for the season is well over 100in. Snow chances remain optimum for the week ahead with a synoptic moderate snow accumulation likely for the entire region especially north of the Mason-Dixon line. Also a bit of lake effect snow is likely throughout the week as multiple embedded vortices move through the northeast allowing for light 1-3in snows possible several times this week for the Laurel Highlands. Finally towards the weekend another synoptic precipitation event is aimed at the region, but confidence remains low at this point.
Widespread frazil ice pans remain across local main stem rivers in the northern Middle Atlantic with recent surveys suggesting widespread coverage of moving ice pans across the Susquehanna River Basin. Also the Delaware River is reporting several areas of widespread ice coverage and this may increase in the coming days as the region remains under the gun for more snowfall. Local ponds and lakes have widespread ice coverage but thicknesses vary across the region depending on depth and other factors. Best advice to those ice fishing and ice skating is to check with local authorities for safe ice thickness levels on local ponds. With below normal temperatures expected in the next seven days, ice thicknesses will likely be on the increase with a statewide snow cover.

With the entire northern Middle Atlantic encased in a rare region wide snowpack; many of the lake effect snow belts will be satisfied in a dwindling threat of lake effect for the upcoming last few weeks of winter. A majority of the southeast bank of Lake Erie is ice covered with SSTs generally below 31F for those with open channels. A bit more open water remains on the north end of the lake along with widespread open channels for Lake Huron. This Huron-Erie connections favors lake effect snow for the Laurel Highlands, but nothing overly significant. A 315degree northwest flow will allow for a bit of light snow courtesy of orographic lift along the leeward sides of the Laurel Highlands ridge tops. Light snow shower visibility around MVRF to IFR will favor visibilities generally at 1mi or above therefore limiting accumulations to western facing slopes above 1900ft with accumulations in that region generally 3-5in for Saturday night. Lowering subsidence inversion heights will allow for clearing skies towards Sunday with no additional snow accumulation. Little to no accumulation is likely Saturday night for the northwest snow belts. High pressure and weak ridging aloft will allow for a dominate westerly flow with sunshine through Monday before clouds increase with a threat of synoptic snow. Towards Tuesday a cyclonic flow regime will induce across the entire northern Middle Atlantic. But with limited moisture from the Great Lakes, lake effect snow accumulations will be kept in check for the Tuesday-Thursday time frame not exceeding advisory levels during any point. Omega values remain low throughout the week along with a slightly displaced dendritic growth layer keeping ratios around 15:1. GFS/NAM QPF means suggest around .3-.4in for the snow belts by the week's end from lake effect snow and upslope enhanced. Accumulations will favor towards the Laurel Highlands into western Maryland in Garret County towards Frostburg, MD under a 300degree flow. Up to 8in of total snowfall is likely towards Mt. Davis and Laurel Summit in Somerset County, Pennsylvania above 2850ft. Valley snow accumulations through the week in the Laurels will generally be less than 4in. Downsloping winds will limit the snow shower extent quickly eliminating snow bands east of the Altoona-State College-Lock Haven line. Snow accumulation across northwestern Pennsylvania will be totaled around 2-4in by the week's end favoring Clearfield County. Little to no pure lake effect snow is likely for northeastern Pennsylvania which such a westerly flow, but a deformation band from the coastal low will allow for some synoptical precipitation. Weak ridging aloft and high pressure move across the region towards the week's end allowing for region wide sunshine through Saturday with below normal temperatures.

"Long Term Outlook" (Updated 2/13)
With the GFS operation and ensembles continuing to indicate a solid phase 8 MJO, it appears troughing will dominate the eastern seaboard. Coupled with an anomalous negative AO below -4, which continues the record stretch, the active southern stream courtesy of the moderate El Nino will allow for an above normal chance of another significant coastal storm along the eastern seaboard. Wavelengths and global ensembles continue to indicate a threat in the day 7-8 time frame around the 21st of February. 2/13 12utc ECMWF run indicates a low pressure undergoing cyclogenesis near the Delmarva with a surface pressure well below 990mb. With prognostics coinciding the negative NAO regime and positive PNA regime it is likely for a coastal influence. While the ECMWF highlights this as a significant threat, the GFS maintains a conservative approach with a more meridian jet stream flow with a flat west to east traversing shortwave. In any case I am highlighting the period from the 20th-22nd of February as a potential significant east coast storm threat date. Again being 7-8 days away I will highlight very few details, but I will mention cyclogenesis towards the eastern seaboard has an above normal potential. Looking at the general winter theme it would suggest the Middle Atlantic features the brunt of this system, but in this time frame the 50/50 low, while still quite favorable, is it a bit weaker and therefore will probably allow the low pressure to spread the wealth a bit more, but that is considering the low pressure even forms. Looking towards the last two weeks of the month, it appears colder than normal temperatures will dominate the weather for much of the weather east of the Mississippi with normal to above normal precipitation. The GFS tries to introduce Pacific modified air towards the end of the month, but I believe it is a bit too quick in doing so. In any case stay tuned throughout the week on the threat towards next weekend!

*Note I am only posting this tower cam until snow starts falling over the northern Middle Atlantic, lol. For now we can all be jealous of the Alaskan snow.
"Monthly Outlook" (March)
February sure has been a memorable month for those with concerns across the viewing region. In fact century old records have been broken for many large cities and towns across the northern Middle Atlantic with even snowfall being recorded on the ground in at least 49 states during the February 12-13 period, which many climatologists are hard pressed to find any other date with such widespread snow cover. The NCDC reports nearly 68% of the nation snow covered as of February 13th with an eight inch average depth. With temperature anomalies also well below -2SD for much of the United States, this has certainly been a February of wintry notation. While the month is generally about 1/2 over and an end to the meteorological winter is quickly approaching, more wintry precipitation will likely continue for the eastern seaboard. For more details for the last two weeks of the month consult the long term disco above. As for a February forecast, due to time constraints unfortunately I was unable to post one. But on second glance of my winter forecast, it clearly advertised February being a very snowy and cold month in fact the snowiest of the winter. Despite what the final two weeks of the month show, these statistics have already been verified. Soon or perhaps now many will be basking in the threat of spring-like weather which is not too far off. It is evident based on teleconnections the worst is over as far as arctic air and climatology means. For those interested in my winter outlook verification blog, it will be issued upon the first week of March as the meteorological winter comes to a close. Now as we look towards March teleconnections diverge... Global models including the GFS/ECMWF begin to lose direct correspondence in forecast similarities after the 10 day time frame. ECMWF weeklies continue to advertise anomalous blocking as we continue in this record -4 AO with troughing over the east coast. But the GFS highlights a zonal flow with Pacific air flooding the nation with cold air bottling up towards Canada. What is interesting this year has been the lack of arctic. Due to the polar vortex being displaced a bit too far north, we have been close to record cold air, but it is just a bit too far displaced. In any case this looks to continue. As common with El Ninos, an active southern stream will continue. But current Nino 3.4 region SSTs indicate a general cooling regime with weakening into low end moderate stage. MJO on the other hand using GEFS supports more of an ECMWF solution. Using a few analogs up my sleeve, climatology, and teleconnections I support a mean forecast of the following for the month of March...
Temperature- I look entitled to enter a pretty typical temperature anomaly forecast for the month averaging from (-0.5)-(+0.5) F across the entire northern Middle Atlantic. This being said I favor guidance for a cooler pattern for the first week or two of the month with temperatures around -5F averages each day; nothing overly cold. Then I believe the pattern radically swings around midmonth or potentially earlier to a much warmer flow as we pardon goodbye to a historic winter. In fact the pattern change is critical for timing as it appears once we swing the pendulum warmer; it is not going to come back. Previous patterns this winter even back into the fall of 2009 favor about 30 day patterns so the timing on this troughing over the east is coming to an end soon. I would not be surprised if the month rounds things on the warmer side of the forecast more so than verifying colder than normal.
Precipitation- Considering climatology of moderate El Ninos on the weakening trend and the considerably active southern stream, I am inclined to lean towards the wetter side of guidance favoring above normal precipitation for the month across the entire northern Middle Atlantic. As for snowfall which is really what most people are concerned with, I will go with normal snowfall for most regions with the higher threat of snow being during the first week of the month before the large pattern change.

"Cooling water in the desert..." El Hamma by kbl
El Hamma Travel Guide: 0 reviews and 7 photos
On several locations in Tunisia, you will notice small buildings that appear to have steam coming out of them. This is no optical illusion nor is it some kind of industry.
Under the surface in Tunisia, on several places are natural reserves of water. These tend to come to the surface in hot steam. The tunisians cool this water (so it would stop flying away) and to use it as source of irrigation.
The romans discovered these sources of water as well when they discovered the Tunesian countries more then 2000 years ago.
They created some bathing houses. Some of these houses still exist (some beatifull ones on the south of Jerba, built with marble that the Romans brought by ship from Italy.
In El Hamma, as in other places along the route between GABES and KBELLI/GBELLI, these sources make aeas very rich of nature.
The Tunesians have off course created a caf� and shop next to this beatifull construction.
Have a look as well to my other pages on Tunisia from this same trip.

Best of 2009
Productivity Sauce
The new year is almost upon us, so it's a good time to wrap up the year 2009 and ruminate over the best open source software and hardware this year brought us. So without further ado, let me present my personal "Best of 2009" list in no particular order.
The coolest hardware: TonidoPlug
The concept of plug computer has been floating around for quite some time. But CodeLathe turned the idea of a tiny server with extremely low power consumption into a real and genuinely useful product named TonidoPlug. The little server runs Tonido software, an open source peer-to-peer platform and application suite that includes several top-notch applications such as a blog engine, a torrent client, a photo sharing app, a file sharing tool, and a fully-fledged collaboration environment. Better yet, developers can write third-party applications that can be easily installed on TonidoPlug.
The best Firefox extension: Zotero
The Zotero add-on transforms Firefox into a powerful research and archiving tool. You can use it to store and manage notes, Web pages, and documents. Powerful search and tagging capabilities make it easy to find information in your Zotero libraries, and the Zotero extension for OpenOffice.org lets you generate and manage properly-formatted bibliographies using your favorite productivity suite. You can sync data stored in Zotero between several machines, including file attachments, using either Zotero's own service or any third-party server that supports WebDAV. As if this was not enough, Zotero also offers a Web-based service which lets you access your data via a browser as well as share it with other Zotero users.
Best distro release: Knoppix 6.x
After a long hiatus, the venerable Live CD Linux distribution emerged in a new version redesigned from the ground up. The latest version sports a brand new accelerated boot procedure which significantly reduces the boot time, and the LXDE lightweight graphical desktop environment. Unlike previous versions, Knoppix 6.0 comes with a trimmed software bundle, but key productivity applications like OpenOffice.org, Iceweasel (aka Firefox), Icedove (aka Thunderbird), Pidgin, and the GIMP are still there. The latest version of Knoppix features a new flash-knoppix tool that allows you to install Knoppix on a USB stick or a flash card.
Best software release: digiKam
A 1.0 release is usually a significant milestone in the life of an open source project, and digiKam is no exception. The highlights in the 1.0 release include a new batch queue manager that lets you queue photos for processing through multiple tools. The new version adds support for OpenStreetMap in the Geolocation panel for digiKam used for geotagging photos. digiKam 1.0 also features a brand new liquid rescaling tool, a first run assistant, and new color filters. The application now supports metadata templates that let you easily add copyright and metadata to photos. The color management code part has been rewritten from the ground up, and the Advanced Rename tool now features syntax highlighting and history management.
ZoteroGood list..I've never tried Zotero but after reading this article, I gotta say what all the fuss is about.

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) -- A Florida judge has increased the
reimbursement costs Casey Anthony must pay to investigators for
searching for her missing 2-year-old daughter three years ago.
Judge Belvin Perry signed an order Friday adding another
$119,000 to the bill she must pay four law enforcement agencies in
central Florida. The new amount brings the total to more than
$217,000. That's still short of the $500,000 prosecutors were
The additional amount comes from the Orange County Sheriff's
Office providing the judge with more details about their costs.
Anthony was acquitted in July on charges of murdering her
daughter, Caylee. But the 25-year-old was convicted of four
misdemeanor counts of lying to authorities. She told officers a
baby sitter had kidnapped the child. Authorities later learned the
baby sitter never existed.

Sen. Chuck Schumer Wants to Stop TSA's Inappropriate Behavior
You know how annoying it is when you have to take off your shoes and your belt at the airport and then security touches you, and you just feel kind of uncomfortable? Well, Sen. Chuck Schumer feels your pain, and he hopes to make it a lot easier for passengers to complain.
With a new legislation proposal, Schumer is responding to some incidents that were actually a bit more serious than an uncomfortable touch. In December, three elderly women came forward with claims that they were strip-searched by Transportation Security Administration officers at JFK airport -- and recent reports allege that TSA officials have inappropriately harassed women passing through security.
Let's take Lenore Zimmerman, for example. She's a tiny, 85-year-old Long Island grandmother who says she was brought into a private room and forced to take off her clothes on her way to a flight to Fort Lauderdale.
Or Ruth Sherman, 88, who said that TSA agents made her strip so they could inspect her colostomy bag.

Under Schumer's proposal, TSA would be required to have a "passenger advocate" at every airport in the country who could be summoned by travelers if they feel that security officers have treated them inappropriately.
The senator first proposed the idea in December, but the TSA thus far has refused to implement any kind of passenger advocate, he said in a press release sent out yesterday. In his original push last year for reforms at the TSA, Schumer urged the TSA to train existing officers in dispute resolution.
But since the TSA has not made any such change yet, Schumer is now coming after them with his most powerful weapon -- legislation with a catchy acronym!
The Restoring Integrity and Good-Heartedness in Traveler Screening Act, or RIGHTS Act, would mandate that TSA create these advocate positions. It would also require TSA to create an "Office for Passenger Support" within the agency that would solicit and record complaints from the public. Under the act, TSA would have to put up signs at each gate explaining passengers' rights.
"This legislation will finally force the TSA to give passengers what they deserve: someone they can turn to, on-site, when they believe they are being mistreated during the screening process," he said in the release. "While we must do everything we can to ensure the safety and security of our passengers, that is no excuse for TSA agents to act in ways that embarrass, harass, or make passengers uncomfortable."
On top of the complaints that emerged from elderly women last year, Schumer cited new concerns over how TSA officials have been treating female passengers at security stops. Officers have harassed women undergoing body scans, and have faced obstacles boarding planes because of a lack of female officers for pat downs, he said.
One woman claimed that she was forced to walk through body scanners multiple times, because the TSA officials on site thought she was attractive. At one point, she was asked if she played tennis because of her "cute" figure. (And we thought taking out a laptop was annoying!)
We reached out to officials this morning who told us that the TSA does not comment on pending legislation. But spokesman Kawika Riley sent us an email outlining the current policies the TSA has in place.
TSA has always provided information and assistance to travelers through its TSA Contact Center and Customer Service Managers in its airports. A recently-initiated "TSA Cares" hotline now serves as an additional resource for passengers with disabilities, medical conditions or other circumstances who want to prepare for the screening process prior to flying, Riley said.
If you have a complaint, the TSA has a system in place, Riley noted. All travelers can contact TSA using "Talk To TSA," a web-based tool that allows passengers to reach out to an airport Customer Service Manager directly, and the TSA Contact Center, 1-866-289-9673 and email@example.com. Travelers can ask questions, provide suggestions, and file complaints.

A storm is pushing in and the barometric pressure is changing. The last rains don't help either. Wait a bit it will change.Been catching stocked trout myself. I hate to see the state go to all that trouble just for me.

Deutsche Bank Would Like Its Workers to Stop Being Filthy, Foul-Mouthed Cretins
In the office, at least.
Wall Street has never been a place for the delicate. But Deutsche Bank is taking steps toward making its trading floors a little more prim and proper.
A video starring Deutsche Bank investment banking co-head Colin Fan is rocketing around Wall Street inboxes today. In the video, first acquired by the Financial Times, Fan calls out Deutsche Bank employees for "falling way short of our established standards" when it comes to their "e-mails, conversations, and conduct." While reminding them that their calls and emails are logged and can be reviewed by regulators in the event of an investigations, Fan warns employees to take care: "Being boastful, indiscreet and vulgar is not O.K. It will have serious consequences for your career, and I have lost patience on this issue."
It's not clear what set Fan off, although DealBook says that the video was "part of an [sic] continuing self-improvement regimen." (It also may have had something to do with the embarrassing Libor emails, or the embarrassing S&P emails, or the embarrassing Fabulous Fab emails, or any number of instances in which bank workers have forgotten that the cardinal rule of banking is that you don't put anything in email.)
Now, with their emails and phone calls being monitored for impropriety, insouciant Deutsche Bankers will have to find some other way to let loose at work. I recommend Snapchat.

('hotep', 'hetep')
in hieroglyphs
The Egyptian word Hotep (ḥtp) translates to roughly "to be at peace". It is regularly found in the names of ancient Egyptian figures such as Hotepsekhemwy (ḥr ḥtp-sḫm.wj "the two powers are at peace"), the first ruler of Egypt's Second Dynasty.[1] It is rendered in hieroglyphs as an altar/offering table (Gardiner R4). It has special semantic meanings in the Ancient Egyptian offering formula, also known as the ḥtp-dỉ-nsw formula, to refer to the "boon given by the king," or the food and goods on which a dead soul was supposed to subsist during the afterlife.[2]
Hotep is the Egyptological pronunciation of Egyptian ḥtp (Gardiner p 579 and 617 = law). The phrase m hotep has been translated to mean literally from law "peace" (Gardiner p 583 and 620 "to rest" "be satisfied", "peace", "become at peace" and "at ease") as in the Egyptian philosophy of living the life in Maat.[clarification needed][3][4][5]

Beaumont/Port Arthur
Adrian David Blanchard is an itinerant street preacher who says, "I won souls for Christ in the streets, churches, gangs, jails, homeless missions, malls, dope houses, bars …"
Shortly after 6 a.m. Sunday morning, Oct. 18, 2015, Beaumont Fire Rescue units responded to a structure fire at 3880 E. Lynwood near the intersection of Cleveland Street and Hayes Lane in Beaumont's North End neighborhood. When firefighters arrived, they found the wood-frame home heavily involved by fire. Firefighters made a defensive attack due to the extent of the fire, and in more than 30 minutes it took to control the blaze, the home sustained extensive damage.
There was a two-vehicle crash on Interstate 10 at Taylor's Bayou in Jefferson County at approximately 7 am Monday, Oct. 19, 2015.
According to Trooper Stephanie Davis, both a Dodge and a Freightliner were traveling eastbound on Interstate 10 at Taylor's Bayou. It is unclear as to which vehicle failed to drive in a single lane before the two collided. After impact, the Dodge caught fire.
Value-based payments are expected to focus more on outcomes – improvement in health – than process, or doing "things" to or for patients. For instance, value-based payments will focus more on whether patients' treatments for diabetes are resulting in improved care rather than just whether patients with diabetes are receiving certain tests.
While we harbor no disrespect for the Wall Street Journal who called us "that scrappy little paper from Southeast Texas," we prefer to think of ourselves as simple seekers of the truth. We're of the opinion that headlines and sound bites never tell the whole story. Our readers demand all the facts, facets and flavors of every story or event. And, they expect to be informed, educated and stirred to action.

Which sex is the worst about washing up? Why is it so important? We've got the dirty truth on how and when to wash your hands.
Back to Work?
Topic Overview
Getting back to work with low back pain depends on what your day is usually like. But there are some basics that apply to everyone.
Moving keeps your back muscles strong, which can help your back. And avoiding activity for more than a day or two can make back pain worse.
Recommended Related to
Important It is possible that the main title of the report CARASIL is not the name you expected. Please check the synonyms listing to find the alternate name(s) and disorder subdivision(s) covered by this report.
At the office
If you have a desk job:
- Adjust your chair so your feet are flat on the floor. If you can't do this, use a footrest so your feet can be flat.
- Keep the curve in your lower back. If your chair doesn't help, place a small cushion or rolled towel across the curve of your back.
- Keep reading materials at eye level. Avoid leaning over your desk.
- Avoid bending, leaning, or twisting at the waist. Keep your workstation and tools within easy reach.
Take breaks and mix it up
- Take 10- to 15-second breaks. For example, look away from your computer monitor, stand up, or stretch your arms. Short breaks reduce eyestrain and muscle tension.
- Move around. When you are sitting, change your position often. Switch between standing and sitting, if possible.
- If you can, go for a walk. This can be as simple as walking up and down the hall. If possible, leave the building and walk a few blocks.
- Stretch your body. Get up out of your chair and stretch your arms, shoulders, back, and legs. When you are sitting, shrug and relax your shoulders. Do this at least every hour. It doesn't hurt to do it more!
Driving, standing, lifting
If you stand or are active in your job (for example, if you are a salesperson, delivery person, or landscaper), try the following:
- When driving, place a small, rolled-up towel or small cushion across the curve of your back. Take breaks. Pull over and walk around if your back begins to ache.
- When standing, put one foot on a low stool. Change feet throughout the day.
- Avoid heavy lifting and pulling. Ask someone for help if you need to. Instead of pulling, push if you can.
Work smart
Be aware of your surroundings. Use common sense. Don't lift more than you need to, and don't carry loads farther than you have to. Take short breaks when your back starts to hurt. Watch for hazards to avoid falling down. These small things can make a big difference.

[error] server reached MaxClients setting, consider raising the MaxClients setting

so I search for solution to raise these numbers. I discover that this number is in two section in apache confinguration. With

MaxSpareServers 20
ServerLimit 1024
MaxClients 1024
MaxRequestsPerChild 4000
but server still shuts down even with these values. Can anybody guide me where to look, what to read, or what to set for proper stable run of server? I will appreciate any help, folks.
The server runs Linux CentOS 5.4

The AC adapters for my 2 dell laptops wore out very quickly.
One supplies power but won't charge the battery (it's about 3 years old, the other is a bit newer).
Both have worn through to the shielding around the notebook connector and look like they'll be unusable soon.
Checking user reviews of the replacement adapter on Dell's own website, it appears they usually fail this fast. Apparently Dell does this deliberately to make money (their adapters sell for about 10-15 times what they cost to make). Same with replacement batteries.
I can see there are plenty of much cheaper ($50, not $150) compatible AC adapters on eBay. Does anyone have experience with these? Naturally I'm nervous a crappy knock-off could fry my notebook, but has this ever actually happened to anyone recently? Has anyone had a good experience? Can anyone recommend a good online seller (who doesn't charge nonsensical shipping costs to Australia, preferably?)
For anyone who's interested, I eventually went ahead and bought one on eBay from China that was claimed to be a genuine original Dell. It's likely a factory second or very good counterfeit, but it looks genuine and worked fine - charged the battery etc - but only for a year. I've since bought 2 more on ebay because, while one of the three failed in the first year, it's still cheaper to buy 10 of these than to buy one from Dell (and the dell one, I now know, won't last either). Further details here: Dell 1720 laptop replacement battery and power adapter if anyone is interested.

Have been twice since moving here a month ago. Service was horrible, broiled salmon was dry and uneventful. The only good i can say is the creme' brulee was very good.
- Posted: 3/3/2015
My boyfriend took his mother & I out to dinner, hearing it was supposed to be the classy side of wasilla. I was very disappointed to find out the truth. We ordered hot tea, (after waiting 15-20 minutes to be received by a waiter) it was brought to the table cold, my boyfriend politely asked if we could get hotter water, as it wasn't warm enough to steep the tea in. & again the water was brought back cold. We just gave up & drank the watered down tea. We ordered the artichoke dip as an appetizer, it was the best part of the whole meal & experience. I ordered the seafood Alfredo, it was bland, had nothing special flavor or unique quality about it. The seafood was clearly not fresh. (Baby shrimp & scallops tasted like they had been thawed from the freezer) My boyfriends mother ordered the eggplant parmesan, the eggplant was rubbery & hard to eat, the marinara sauce tasted like pure tomato paste. My boyfriend ordered the seafood aribata, he wanted something spicy & delicious & received a bland & not spicy meal. After all this, we waited 30 minutes to be received by the waiter to get the check, 120 dollars later, we were left disappointed. We will not be going back, & I will be sharing this with all of my friends, shame on you for claiming to be an authentic Itallian restaurant, when Olive Garden can do better. Step it up.

Sunday the first shoe dropped; Monday the second shoe; now I am waiting on the third shoe to drop.
