CHICAGO -- Catcher Jason Castro put his battery-mate at ease early in the game.
Carlos Lee had a two-run double in a five-run first inning and Castro hit a three-run homer in the third to spot starter Wandy Rodriguez a big lead, and the Houston Astros beat the Chicago Cubs 11-5 on Monday night.
Rodriguez (7-11) gave up five runs in six innings but earned the win because the Astros had an 8-0 lead after three innings.
"When I hit it I didn't think it had a chance," said Castro. "In BP, the ball wasn't traveling too well but as the game went on the wind started picking up. It got out and it definitely gave us that cushion that took the pressure off a little bit and let us just play."
Hunter Pence had a two-run single in the first inning and Chris Johnson hit a two-run shot in the seventh for his first major league homer and finished a double short of the cycle.
Before the game, Astros manager Brad Mills shook up the order by moving Jeff Keppinger into the sixth spot. Keppinger responded by going 1 for 2 with three walks and scoring three runs.
"It's those guys out there. They swung the bats and the talent is there. It was going to come out at some point," Mills said. "Tonight it did."
Carlos Silva's slide after starting the season 8-0 with a 2.93 ERA continued. He was tagged for five runs on seven hits and two walks in one inning. In his last two starts, Silva (9-4) has allowed 11 runs over 2 1/3 innings.
"I'm still human," Silva said. "I think that's the way we have to look at it. These game are going to happen. Everything I was throwing it was hit."
Aramis Ramirez hit at two-run homer and Tyler Colvin added a solo shot in the sixth inning for the Cubs, who fell 10½ games behind the first-place St. Louis Cardinals in the NL Central. The Cubs are 15-26 against NL Central opponents.
After winning three of four against the Philadelphia Phillies over the weekend, the Astros pounded Cubs for a season-high 11 runs and 17 hits.
"The pitching today wasn't good," Cubs manager Lou Piniella said.
The 17 hits were most given up in a game by the Cubs this season.
Despite coming into the game with the third fewest runs in baseball this season, the Astros knocked Silva out after one inning. Silva allowed back-to-back singles to Michael Bourn and Angel Sanchez to start the game.
Piniella plans to talk to pitching coach Larry Rothschild about pushing back Silva so he can get extra work in the bullpen between his next start.
"Silva. I don't have an explanation. I'm going to talk to Larry about him tomorrow. He is not as sharp as he was earlier that's for sure," Piniella said. "We have a day off on Thursday. If he needs some little extra work in the bullpen we can do that. We're going to do what is best for the pitcher."
Silva, who was ejected for arguing balls and strikes in his last start at Los Angeles on July 11, stared down home plate umpire Tony Randazzo after not getting a called strike to Berkman. Silva ended up walking Berkman to load the bases then Pence followed with a two-run single.
"He struggled in that first inning. He threw 40-something pitches. he wasn't going to go much farther in that ballgame, believe me," Piniella said.
Lee doubled down the left-field line, scoring Pence from first. Lee scored on Johnson's double play grounder. The Astros sent 11 batters to the plate in the inning and they were 7 for 8 the first time through the lineup.
Silva had his shortest start since pitching 2/3 of an inning on May 30, 2008, vs. Detroit, while with Seattle.
The Astros added on in the third inning. Cubs reliever Mitch Atkins walked Keppinger and gave up a single to Johnson before Castro homered to right. It was his second of the season and gave Houston an 8-0 lead. It was the first home run by a Houston catcher that drove in at least three runs since Brad Ausmus hit a grand slam in Aug. 5, 2006, at Arizona.
Geovany Soto scored on Colvin's groundout in the third inning.
Derrek Lee doubled in the fourth inning and went to third on a wild pitch then scored on Ramirez's sacrifice fly.
Colvin led off the sixth with his 13th homer of the season. One out later, Lee doubled and Ramirez followed with a two-run homer to get to 8-5.
But Johnson gave the Astros a cushion with a liner to right for his first home run, a two-run shot in the seventh and had an RBI triple in the eighth.
"It's nice to see them get some good pitches to hit and look a little more confident at the plate. CJ (Johnson) in his first couple at-bats was struggling a bit and he came back. Sanchez really did a good job all night long," Mills sais.
The Astros will recall Wesley Wright from Triple-A Round Rock before Tuesday night's game against the Cubs. Wright is scheduled to make his first career start. Earlier in the season, Wright pitched out of the bullpen for Houston. He allowed six runs over 9 2/3 innings in six relief appearances without a decision. ... Castro ended the night with two errors at shortstop for the Cubs. ... Sanchez had hits. He has 17 career hits and his last multihit game was also a three hit game on Oct. 1, 2006, at Detroit while with the Royals.

Mickelson withdraws from Texas Open with injury
Credit: The Associated Press
SAN ANTONIO — Phil Mickelson withdrew from the Texas Open after pulling a muscle in his right side teeing off on his 10th hole in the third round Saturday.
"I pulled a muscle on my downswing trying to hit it hard," Mickelson said a statement. "It just killed and it wouldn't subside for 10 or 12 seconds. I'm going back to San Diego (for) a couple of days and have a doctor look at it, but there's really not much you can do for a pulled muscle. I hope I'll be OK to play the Shell in Houston, but I just don't know."

My grandson was very happy with the helicopter. He is 8 years old. Make sure an adult supervises the child when he uses it. It does fly pretty high and my grandson was a little shaky at first when it flew up in the air. Make sure your child knows how to use the control. Do not leave children alone with this toy, because it can hit someone in the eye or face if it is not supervised.
This was for my 7 year old son. He has REALLY enjoyed it! So far, it has been durable and easy for him to use. We go through quite a few batteries, so we may switch to rechargeable soon :) I would recommend this product for its price and dependability.
It flies very good straight up, however you have no control over the flight movements. It runs out of battery fast. The helicopter is constructed well, and its resistant to collisions.
I bought this product for my 8yr old son for Christmas, and it didn't make it through one day of normal use. I showed him how to use it and during normal play, the flimsy little on/off switch on the helicopter broke off making the product un-useable. My other son got the Airhog megabomb, which is holding up so far. Very disappointed in the lack of quality and durability
The charger plug broke the first day
After flying this toy for the Christmas weekend the toy stop flying. The battery stop charging the helicopter.
I can't rate this product at this time. I purchased it for my grandson for Christmas & since Christmas is not here yet I have no idea if this product is a yea or a nay. Maybe later.
This toy isn't worth the time and energy used to make it fly.
When helicopter get more than 10 feet away from controller it becomes very erratic. Charging leaves a lot to be desired. Would not buy again.
cheap, broke within a few days .for the price would expect much more
I never got any cool toys as a kid so when my father-in-law gave me this… I was a kid again. at 28. It arrived 7 prior prior to committed time and in excellent shape and works great here in the humid South of USA, Thanks Walmart.
Does not fly very well. Don't like that helicopter charges from remote. I was expecting a larger toy than this mini one.
I ordered for my grandchild for Christmas, it stopped working that very day!
It doesn't work

People fall in love with Chikumbuso when they visit us. I know how and why I love Chikumbuso... it's got so much going on all the time and feels very alive. There is always something to do and volunteers are welcome.
On a trip back to the States, an old friend called. I was tired, didn't feel like chatting, but I picked up the phone. This old friend is coming to Zambia in the summer. She wants to help. I think she'll be able to do some teacher training and I'm hoping, bring some new curriculums to us. More than anything, my prayer is that they also will fall in love with Chikumbuso. I've got a good feeling that prayer will be answered!
Just picking up the phone.

Previously, in 2010-11, he was Teaching Fellow in Latin and Classics Studies in the School of Classics at the University of St Andrews in Scotland, where he also earned a PhD in Latin (2011) and an M. Litt in Ancient History (2007). He received his B.A. in Ancient Studies (2006) from the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC). His primary interests are the intellectual culture of the Roman Empire and values of learning and knowledge more generally in antiquity. He is also interested in the interaction of Greek and Roman culture, processes of mediation in the Roman Imperial world, problems of miscellany and other quasi-literary forms, and the ancient and modern history of the book. His doctoral thesis on "Intellectual narratives in the Noctes Atticae of Aulus Gellius," from which he is now preparing a book, explored the way Gellius's neglected work frames, narrates and prompts processes of critical and self-aware learning in the context of second-century Rome.

Startup report:
This currently list 10 shutdown profiles sorted from longest to shortest time spent in PluginInstanceParent::Destroy recorded on my system. Click on the profile will preview the profile + highlight the function.
Filing this bug even if I'm not sure if there's a ton we can do without a NPAPI change. Any ideas Benjamin?
We could TerminateProcess the plugin-container. I don't know whether that would totally destroy Flash data structures. Other than that, don't expect magic bullets.
TerminateProcess? Do you just mean kill the plugin process?
Would it be possible to shutdown the plugin process async and have any other NPAPI call fail?
Yes, I mean killing the plugin process. It would be very difficult to asynchronously shut down the plugin process because it almost certainly continues to make calls into the browser as part of shutdown, and those would all need to be stubbed out with some kind of error message (and those error might cause additional instability). I think that if we're going to experiement with this, terminating the process is the better choice.
We could ask Adobe whether we they provide a new "shutting down now" API which would immediately save persistent state and then allow us to terminate the process more safely...
Plugin shutdown time measures https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=706647
Note that this measurement is very different then what my profile is measuring. It appears that we spend a lot of time destroying plugin instances on shutdown not the plugin process.
I did more research on this. I can reproduce this on a fast windows machine as well as on mac. I confirmed that the slow down was coming from NPP_Destroy. Skipping that call makes the problem go away but will leak resources and will not let the plugin persist data. Leaking resource is okay on an optimized shutdown but we still need to persist data. This problem is particularly bad on shutdown because it scaled linearly with the number of open tab. i.e. 10 youtube tabs means you've added 1 second to your shutdown time.

I had a colleague stay with me for a week while he visited the Boston area to train some web engineers and get some much-needed R&R. Now I'm not saying I'm a bad host by any means. I'm just not the best choice when it comes to showing a guest a good time. I'm just not the "adventurous" or out-going type when it comes to exploring cities. My idea of fun is reading, writing, watching movies, or playing video games. When I'm bored with sitting around and improving my rapid typing speed, I try (really I do) to work out or at least get out of the house. Suffice it to say that when I agreed to have my office friend stay with me so the company could save some money, I hadn't really put any thought as to how I would entertain my guest.
This is something I would've ditched CoD MW2 for! (Epic Warfare Paintballing)
Luckily, he's a gamer too so I made sure to have Madden 13 and CoD MW2 on hand. However, I needed to think of something else to "mix it up." Try as I did to convince him that The IT Crowd is a brilliant piece of TV…brilliance… my house guest didn't get the humor. It was during this tragic realization (of my fellow man not having the greatest taste) that I had an epiphany. Netflix has another TV series worth recommending above all. No one could not enjoy it. I couldn't believe I failed to suggest this masterpiece in the first place. If you didn't guess it, you should be ashamed–it's in the damn title of this post after all. Yes, I'm talking about Joss Whedon's ace-high, root'tootin', bronco bustin', space odyssey extravaganza: Firefly.
No spoiler alert here, but below is an official synopsis provide by Amazon.com:
Five hundred years in the future there's a whole new frontier, and the crew of the Firefly-class spaceship Serenity is eager to stake a claim on the action. They'll take any job, legal or illegal, to keep fuel in the tanks and food on the table. But things get a bit more complicated after they take on a passenger wanted by the new totalitarian Alliance regime. Now they find themselves on the run, desperate to steer clear of Alliance ships and the flesh-eating Reavers who live on the fringes of space.
Now, before you bash my taste in sci-fi, I know there are other more-sophisticated shows out there–shows that provoke our sense of where the future is going or what our world will eventually become. Yes, there are more action-packed, laser-slinging plot-lines out there–stories telling of human civilization teetering on the edge of extinction. Like all of these here (which aligns well with my own list). I concede the point.
The thing that makes Firefly so great is that a wide variety of viewers can enjoy this series without being into westerns or science fiction. Heck, my wife who's a sucker for Downton Abbey and other English dramas considers Firefly one of her favorite modern TV shows. Surely, this must mean Firefly did something right.
Whedon did all kinds of right with Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog as well. Click here or face the ice ray!
I believe that Firefly's magic comes through the characters Whedon has created and how their relationships and roles in each episode continually evolve into everything that makes being human so wonderful. Emotion. Action. Conflict. Oh! be still pragmatic heart of mine! I have not encountered a more entertaining band of TV misfits since these guys.
Further, if character development isn't really your thing, Firefly did win a 2003 Emmy for Outstanding Special Visual Effects. By today's standards the eye-candy is fairly paltry, but bear in mind that (a) television budgets only go so far and (b) it was freakin' 2003 and the show aired on Fox, which didn't really approve of Whedon's against-the-mainstream story. Per a very-well written article by Ryan Levin, discussing the reasons behind Firefly's incredibly and disappointingly short-lived existence:
Firefly's universe of strong female characters, morally complex and often dislikable males, and more time spent holding the ship together and fleeing danger than manfully facing it head on didn't jive well with Fox's programming philosophy.
If you haven't watched Firefly yet and you're becoming slowly (or quickly) disgusted by my gushing over this series as ultra fabulous–please stop reading now and do yourself a favor: get a free 30-day Netflix subscription and watch this series immediately. Stream it from somewhere–anywhere! For the love of that is good in the 'Verse (click that link–no ads, it's a clever interactive map of the universe found in Firefly) and for your status as geek, nerd, or sci-fi fan, watch this series now.
No, seriously, if you missed the previous link: Interactive Map of Firefly's Universe here–very fun!
If you already know the series and love it as much as I do, purchase the whole series for under $20 at Amazon.com now (3/03/2013 @ 11:45pm EST). Trust me this is a good deal–I paid $40-ish when I purchased it a few months back. Link is below. We'd appreciate it if you used our link to make the purchase since all proceeds will be used to make TechCircuit as cool as possible.

With the ever increasing power expenses nowadays, you may be looking for ways to reduce it. This article is created to give you some energy effectiveness tips for your home that may help you conserve some power and cash. Here are a few to get you started.
Nowadays people on the planet are very unclear about what types of energy can satisfy the necessities of individuals the near future and that's why investing in sources of power must be very smart plus long-term. The present sources of power are to run out indeed. With the present day consumption, based on the official statistics it is going to take place in a couple of decades.
Investors need to analyse this market meticulously before investing. Various websites with current Eco-friendly profiles, information about products, essential summaries should be well looked through. Plus, pay attention to the shares of renewable stocks.
Quite often people have adopted the exercise of the green home theoretically but use the wind and solar power that has been generated somewhere else and shipped to them. Even when this is completely "green", it's the same as going off the main grid, because the power is still getting delivered by an outside resource. When you are completely off the main grid, you are producing all the energy you need on your own, and not counting on outside companies to deliver this to you.
You can develop simple power windmills along with available plans for under one hundred dollars. By using alternative energy resources, you may be able to reduce your electric powered bill by as much as 80%. Think about sending a small check towards the electric company each month rather than that frustrating check for many dollars. Don't continue to clench your teeth as you write out your electronic payment, take control of your personal bill by generating your personal electricity.
These types of exceptions I'm talking about can not be bought from retail stores. You must get them to with your hands. As you might have perhaps guessed by now, I'm referring to homemade solar energy panels. This is a class of groups which are ridiculously cheap yet dependable.
Choose a constructing site with no obstructions towards the south for complete access to the lower angle of the winter sunlight. Another plus is a website with trees that can prevent prevailing winter winds, which are usually from the north.
Therefore, it can be figured at www.easesolutions.com.au/solar-panels-adelaide/ — among alternative energy sources inexistent beneath the heat of the Sun — solar panels are the best! Feel free to publish comments, questions, suggestions, or even recommendations if you have any. 2 heads are better than 1. So, your opinions are usually valuable in making the Earth healthier and a better place to reside in.

Witkowski, Luke
Fargo's Witkowski an All-StarSubmitted by chad on January 14, 2009 - 08:45
The USHL has announced their lineups for the 2009 USHL Prospects/All-Star Game to be held February 4 in Sioux Falls. Lightning prospect and Western Michigan University commit Luke Witkowski was named to the defensive squad for the West Division.
Teams are selected by a vote from league coaches.
Witkowski, a 2008 6th round pick, stands 6'2" and weights 200 pounds. The Force captain leads all Fargo defensemen in scoring with three goals and 10 points in 29 games this season. He also leads all Force players - and is fifth in the league among defensemen - in plus/minus with a plus-15 rating. He is second in the league among defensemen behind teammate Steve Spinnell (undrafted, Miami Univ. commit) in penalty minutes with 76.
Last season, Witkowski scored 13 points (3 goals) in 59 games with the Ohio Junior Blue Jackets - his first in the USHL. Luke will begin his collegiate career at WMU next fall.

Also, Canada coach Pat Quinn said the goaltenders' peformance Friday night did not sway him one way or another on a starter. Dustin Tokarski (0 GAA Friday) and Chet Pickard (2 GAA Friday) will go into today's game neck and neck.

> The biggest statement in the battle between John Tavares and Victor Hedman was made by Dana Tyrell.
While the rock-solid forward won't supplant either of those players as the top pick in next year's draft - Tyrell signed a three-year contract with Tampa Bay last week - he made the biggest impact on Friday night.

Tyrell lined up on a checking unit with big Rimouski center Patrice Cormier (New Jersey) and Atlanta prospect Angelo Esposito. Known as a scorer for the Montreal Juniors, TSN reported Esposito was being tried in a two-way role next to shut-down expert Cormier and the defensive savvy Tyrell.

I am not an expert on grh's, but have been in the bus a number of
year. It would be ideal, if you could get a fan, appropriate sz for the
grh, built in, so it opens automatically when the temp gets so high, or
hot...works very nice for ventilation. For this system you need a small
fan at one end and a vent or louver at the other end, when the temp gets so
high the fan comes on and at the same time opens the vent at the opposite
end. Don't know if this is appropriate for your set up ......but do know
it works.
For a small grh some kind of small horizontal fan to keep air
circulating and even temps would work too.

Job Description for Project Geologist
A project geologist works in fields such as drilling and mining. They gather data at a site, analyze it, and create maps so that operations can be carried out effectively. A project geologist should also collect data regarding seismic occurrences and various formations, as well as identify risks associated with the operations so managers can decide whether work should continue in certain sites. In some positions, a project geologist is tasked with identifying new sites for carrying out company operations as well. Project geologists also perform tests to identify specific spots for carrying out drilling operations.Read More...
The tests that a project geologist carries out are often aided by computer programs such as Petra and SES Geosteering, with which the geologist should already have experience. The results of a geologist's tests should be organized and reported to management and other parties within a company. A project geologist should also keep up to date with the latest developments in equipment to continuously improve their methods. Additionally, this person should keep track of developments and data in other companies to find out about new opportunities and methods.
Some positions require a minimum of a bachelor's degree in a related field, while others may require at least a master's degree. A geologist should be able to work well on a team as well. The projects are carried out both indoors and outdoors; therefore, a geologist should be able to work in various weather conditions.

The Florida Supreme Court has granted review to resolve a conflict between two of Florida's district courts of appeal on whether the Florida Civil Rights Act (FCRA) prohibits pregnancy discrimination. In Delva v. Continental Group, Inc., 96 So. 3d 956 (Fla. 3d DCA 2012), the Third District Court of Appeal concluded that the FCRA, which provides that it is unlawful for an employer to discriminate against an individual on the basis of sex, does not prohibit pregnancy discrimination. The Third District certified conflict with the Fourth District Court of Appeal's decision in Carsillo v. City of Lake Worth, 995 So. 2d 1118 (Fla. 4th DCA 2008), which held the opposite.
The FCRA (formerly known as the Florida Human Relations Act and the Florida Human Rights Act) was enacted five years after the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VII), and is patterned after it. In 1978, Congress enacted the Pregnancy Discrimination Act, which amended Title VII by redefining sex discrimination to include discrimination on the basis of pregnancy: "The terms 'because of sex' or 'on the basis of sex' include, but are not limited to, because of or on the basis of pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions." 42 U.S.C § 2000e(k). The FCRA, unlike the federal statute, has never been amended to specifically say that pregnancy discrimination is sex discrimination. In Delva, the Third District, relying on an earlier Florida decision, O'Loughlin v. Pinchback, 579 So. 2d 788 (Fla. 1st DCA 1991), held that because Florida has not amended the Florida Civil Rights Act to add language similar to the Pregnancy Discrimination Act, the Florida legislature did not intend to include pregnancy discrimination in the FCRA. But the Fourth District, in Carsillo, reasoned that because the FCRA was patterned after Title VII, which considers pregnancy discrimination to be sex discrimination, the FCRA does bar pregnancy discrimination. "Congress made clear in 1978 that its intent in the original enactment of Title VII in 1964 was to prohibit discrimination based on pregnancy as sex discrimination[.] [I]t was [therefore] unnecessary for Florida to amend its law to prohibit pregnancy discrimination." The Carsillo court based its decision on the principle that Florida courts have "the right and the duty, in arriving at the correct meaning of a prior statute, to consider subsequent legislation," citing Gay v. Canada Dry Bottling Co. of Florida, 59 So. 2d 788, 790 (Fla. 1952).
Florida federal district courts are also divided, some following the O'Loughlin decision (on which Delva was based), but others following Carsillo based on their predictions that the Florida Supreme Court would adopt Carsillo's reasoning. A decision from Florida's highest court will finally resolve this significant issue.
The supreme court granted review of the case on May 2, 2013 and assigned it Case No. SC12-2315. Briefing is complete, and oral argument is to be set. For the current status of the case, click on the case number above.

Sandi Markland asked me to give some examples of how the IAC could hurt
anyone. She sees how it might hurt hybridizers...isn't this enough of a
reason to bury it?
But I will give some obvious examples for those without any imagination.
Suppose Alex Summers is selecting seedlings from seed collected in
Japan...he grows on 200 of them. They have Japanese horticultural
names, the seed bearing parent , that is...species longipes called l.
Aki Tenryu, a type of longipes lancea, with narrow leaves, some of
which resemble tortifrons. He selects 10 or twenty of them. He gives
them names of his choice. They are marvelous. He decides to write an
article and describe them to share the wonderful experiences with
others in the Society which he co- founded. He sends the article to
Kevin for publishing. Kevin is now in a dilemma...either bootleg the
article, breaking the rules of the IAC or sending Alex a reason why his
article has to be turned down...because it breaks the rules established
by IAC.
2. Want another one...OK, Jim Hawes and a partner buys a plant at the
AHS auction in Cedar Rapids Iowa in 1993. We pay 510 dollars for it...H.
'Chirifu", not registered but wanted by Kevin, Bob Solberg and Alan
Tower who stopped when the bid reached 500 dollars. After several years
I decide to give a clump of this plant to the AHS Convention
auction...four divisions ought to bring over a 1000 dollars easily. But
AHS auction officials won't except it as a donation...why, ?: it's not
registered. So I take my plant home, probably vowing not to embarrass
myself again with an offering of less value than the one turned down. .
3 Want some more examples? Ok, I have a plant I imported from Japan.
Urajiro Hachijo which Robyn Duback sells for 175 dollars. I save some
seed , sow it. Up come some wonderful seedlings with purple petioles,
scallopped edges, white backs, one of which reminds me of Marilyn
Monoe's skirt blowing up by the wind. So, I tissue culture it, have now
about a hundred or so which I plan to give to friends. Maybe I will put
it in a leafshow and win all kinds of awards. But I can't use the name
I select...because it's not registered yet. It's only one year old.. I
tell the officials that I will not use a number, or any other epithep
as they have so arbitraily told me I must do. I tell them goodby. I go
home vowing not to undergo that embarrassing experience again.
Want another example..........
I know what you are saying. I must adjust to the rules. The hell I do! I
will not adjust to stupid rules.
Jim Hawes

|[VFS] tests and project status
|Thu, 01 Jan 2009 23:37:54 GMT
I'm working on commons vfs trying to implement webdav using the Jackrabbit client. I finished coding it but before trying to test that I wanted to test the existing providers to make sure I have a basic setup working. I've looked at http://commons.apache.org/vfs/testserver.html and a number of things don't make sense to me. 1. It references test-data/read-tests. No such directory exists in subversion. Instead, the directory is actually named test-data/ basedir, which seems like a mistake. 2. It describes doing things with ant or the RunTest class, but the build mvn install works fine, although many of the unit tests being run are incorrectly set up (see below). 3. test-data/write-tests doesn't exist. It should be present in subversion with a dummy file so that mvn test will just work, or it should be created automatically when running the build. 4. None of the provider test cases actually extend Junit TestCase, so nothing happens when you try to run them. 5. Changing AbstractProviderTestConfig to extend AbstractProviderTestCase, which seems like what should happen generates an error since AbstractProviderTestCase declares getBaseTestFolder to be protected while it is also declared in the ProviderTestConfig interface, which means it has to be public in AbstractProviderTestCase. 6. Fixing all this and then running mvn test gets all kinds of errors, even on some of the providers that should work - like the local provider. I started all this on vfs trunk and noticed that it seems to be for an as yet unreleased 2.0 so I went an looked at the 1.x branch but it doesn't look a whole lot different. Do these tests really run? Should I be working on trunk (2.0) vs vfs-1-trunk (1.x)? Is there any real difference between them?

The Department of Business, Tourism, Culture and Rural Development (BTCRD) recognizes business and sector development as the key to economic development. The Business Investment Fund provides a source of funding to business and economic sectors that responds to the changing needs of enterprises. The Business Investment Fund is comprised of two components: the Business Investment Program and the Business Development Support Program.
The Business Investment Program provides term loans and equity investments to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in strategic growth sectors as identified by BTCRD. The fund is also available to businesses which have export potential and require assistance to enter or expand in external markets. Funds are provided to complement funding from conventional sources, where a need has been demonstrated, and are also intended to increase the capital base of businesses allowing them to leverage new private-sector investments.
The Business Development Support Program assists Newfoundland and Labrador SMEs with opportunities to increase their productivity and improve their competitiveness. The program supports SMEs who demonstrate a desire to develop and grow by improving the operations of the business, investing in its people, and focusing on trade opportunities. BTCRD assistance will be targeted towards businesses in strategic sectors that normally focus on export markets and/or improve import substitution. Funding is available for productivity improvements, knowledge development, market development and/or professional technical advice.
The Business Investment Program is in the form of repayable term loans to a maximum amount of $500,000 per government fiscal year at the department's base rate of three per cent.
Equity funding in the form of redeemable preferred shares to a maximum of $500,000 per project; maximum aggregate of $1 million is available.
The Business Development Support Program is in the form of a non-repayable contribution(s) to a maximum amount of $100,000 per government fiscal year. The contribution level will be based on 50 per cent of eligible costs, with the business identifying their access to the remaining 50 per cent to complete the project(s).
Eligible applicants must normally:

ScorpionExo® claim to be the next wave in motorcycle helmet design. Helmets are engineered by some very experienced helmet designers, with over 178 years of cumulative experience. Their wild, innovative graphic designs are created in hotbeds of extreme-sports creativity all over the world, from Europe to Southern California, to stay two steps ahead in this fast-moving field.
The Scorpion Sports factory, The Big Nest is dedicated to crafting some of the world's best protective headgear. Almost every operation needed to create world-class helmets is located on this one amazing facility, including both fiberglass/Kevlar and polycarbonate shell moulding, EPS liner manufacturing, liner sewing, water-decal production, clean-room paint booths, drying rooms, assembly, packaging and shipping. This way the factory can monitor the quality and is not dependent on outside suppliers.
The American based company is relatively new to the UK market and has made a strong impact with the quality of its products. Features such as the Airfit system, which allows you to add pressure on the cheekpads, and their sprung visor mechanisms which help the visor seal against the shell keeping noise and drafts to a minimum all point to a quality product.
Theyve also done well in the Sharp test which proves their crash quality.
There are a number of full and open face models in the range as well as a great flip front. Obviously all Scorpion helmets met ECE22-05 and all have been approved by the TUV testing centre in Germany.
