I have to say the words I thought I could not speak.
For so long now, I've thought myself to be weak.
Today, I was blinded, but could finally really see.
I now know all the potenial of what we can be.
Unfortunately, there willl never be an us.
Do not worry, do not make a fuss.
Before, with vision, I never really saw.
All the plains of my one, fatal flaw.
You are beauty, you are sheer.
For your greatness, may the world yell out in cheer.
Yet, you are missing that littlest of things.
The very one that's large me, the very one that gives me wings.
Where is, without my glasses, I looked for it.
Beyond the sea of externals, inside, underneath your wit.
But it just wasn't there, never there at all: a soul.
WIthout it, what would be of us but an endless bowl.
Traveling in circles, the spoon of the world would push.
We'd never really get anywhere, just become some big mush.
I have to goodbye now, I have to say hello,
to the world I've been running from, from the world I can tow.

Zappos.com, Delta Air Lines and Aircell give airline passengers a free shopping pass.
Some consumers just can't go that long without shopping for footwear. That's the idea behind a promotion this month offered to passengers on Delta Air Lines. Shoppers on planes equipped with WiFi can access Zappos.com for free and have their snazzy new kicks shipped to their destinations.
The month-long promotion was organized by Aircell, the company that provides in-flight WiFi access for Delta and several other airlines under the Gogo Inflight Internet brand. Travelers on WiFi-enabled Delta flights see a Zappos promotion banner at the Gogo access page, where consumers normally enter their payment data to buy in-flight web access. From there, they can visit the Zappos.com e-retail site and shop its full product catalog. At the checkout stage, consumers can enter their destination address for shipment. Zappos.com is a subsidiary of Amazon.com, the No. 1 e-retailer in Internet Retailer's Top 500 Guide.
In-flight web access normally ranges from $4.95 to $12.95 per flight, depending on the length of the flight, an Aircell spokeswoman says. Aircell declined to reveal the financial arrangements for the promotion. "Ensuring our airline partners reach their e-commerce goals is one of our key objectives, whether that's providing shopping, entertainment, news, games or simply keeping people connected to their lives on the ground," the spokeswoman says.
Normally, non-paying travelers can access limited content from the Wall Street Journal and travel news site Frommers.com, the spokeswoman says. The promotion marks the second e-retail-centered effort organized by Aircell. In December, it ran a month-long promotion that allowed passengers free access to SkyMall.com, the e-retail arm of the merchant's shopping catalog, which pokes up from seemingly every airplane seat pocket; Aircell made SkyMall.com available on Gogo-equipped flights on AirTran Airways, Alaska Airlines, US Airways, United Airlines and Delta. Sky Mall Inc. is No. 185 in Internet Retailer's Top 500 Guide.

For updating you have at least the following options: - keep a large inactive index and a small active index, search them with a MultiSearcher. When deleting you need to search both, you only add to the small active index. When optimizing this small index starts consuming too many resources, merge the two. - as you indicated below, you can use a RAMIndex as the third level. - don't optimize at all and let Lucene sort it all out, this uses quite a few open files, evt. tune indexing speed with IndexWriter.maxMergeDocs and mergeFactor. This might slow down querying. > - Do you have an suggestion on how to use Lucene in such an environment > because it is not very nice code if you have to create a new > IndexReader/Writer after every operation? You don't need a new IndexWriter. When you want to have the last updates taken into account, you'll need a new IndexReader. You can also delay creating/opening an IndexReader until it is actually needed, and you can reuse an open IndexReader for multiple queries. I'd recommend to close unused IndexReaders. > - We introduced a RAMIndex that is merged to the FileIndex after N > operations to reduce the load and to not merge documents that are removed > directly after they are added (with filters on the mailboxes that is > happening very often). Any ideas if that was wise or if there is a better > solution? Sounds ok to me. See also above. You might merge only when you run low on memory. > - Does Lucene have problems with many indices in the same virtual machine? Lucene has no problem, but the underlying file system can give headaches. The last thing I heard of Windows is that it has a fixed max. of 2000 open files. Under Linux the max. nr of open files is settable in /proc. > We have an index for every mailfolder and get TooManyFilesOpen-Excpetions > when having >10 indices open. Maybe we should try to have only a single > index that holds all messages? The number of open files is determined by the total number of open segment files. An non optimized index can consist of many segments, an optimized index has one segment. Searching a non optimized index is slower because each segment needs to be searched separately. You have to realize that Lucene never modifies an index file, with a few exceptions, the most noticeable being the file that contains the 'deleted' bits in each segment. The segments are built in a hierarchy with fanout of IndexWriter.mergeFactor, and updates are effected by (batched) deletions and (batched) additions. IndexWriter.mergeFactor controls two things: the amount of RAM and the number of files used for indexing. When you get both out memory and too many files open exceptions during indexing, you might considering lowering this mergeFactor.The amount of memory needed also depends on the size of your documents (which is not normally a problem for email), and the size of the RAMIndex. When rapidly alternating updates and queries, the trick is to try and concentrate the additions in a small index and and merge the segments of only the small index before querying both the large and the small index. I'm using Lucene with 26 IndexReaders open without problems. I close them before opening any IndexWriter, though. Also I optimize after any update, but I hope to use a better filesystem soon so I can delay the optimize operations and use a lower maxMergeDocs during indexing. > If you like to look at sourcecode, how we implememted all this look at > http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/columba/columba/src/mail/cor >e/org/columba/mail/folder/search/LuceneSearchEngine.java?rev=1.7&content-typ >e=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup > > Its not nice to just give you the plain code and not the relevant snippets, > but these are more general design issues that i think are better explained > in words than in code. > > I would really like to see Lucene integrated in Columba, but i had to learn > that it is no easy task, maybe an impossible one.

It's only impossible when your update and query pattern cannot be made to match the (non file modifying) index updating method of Lucene combined with the restrictions of the underlying file system. You'll have to plan for occasional large merges, though. Indexing is indexing, and querying is querying. Lucene gives you the balance in your hands.

The following text was originally written on May 6, 2007, which was a couple months into my intuitive eating journey. My hope is that you will find some inspiration in what I have gone through to get to where I am today. Maybe you are going through something similar right now.
Most recently, I started to journal my thoughts, feelings, hunger level and food. I only did it for about a day and a half before breaking down. I started the journal this past Thursday and by Friday lunch, I was a broken child hidden in the corner.
For a long time, I had myself convinced that I hadn't been stuffing my emotions down with food all of these years. I recently realized that there were triggers for eating too much but I never realized that there was some deep down stuff triggering my triggers. I never thought I had those problems. Today, I know that I have been stuffing it all down, the shame, the guilt, the hatred, the resentment, all of it.
Of course, I haven't gone through my adult life oblivious to the fact that I have made mistakes and that people have stolen parts of my soul. But what I have done is mask all of that with cynicism and a "poor pitiful me" act. And without knowing it, thinking I was eating the stresses of the day away, what I was really doing was cramming all of the "bad" stuff further and further into my heart and mind. Because of that, I have rolls, folds, lumps and bumps that have come to be my shield.
Throughout this journey, I have wondered: Why is intuitive eating so hard? Why do people make comments about intuitive eating, like, "I can't do that, I would intuitively eat 300 warm cookies?" Why is it so easy to just eat the chocolate?
Because of the emotions. That is why. And that is why diets don't work.
Had I decided that the flex plan was the right thing to do last week, I would have never faced the demons of my mind like I did this weekend. I would have never chosen the spiral bound notebook because I needed all of that paper over the pretty leather bound journal. I would have never said the words, cried the tears and fought the desire to eat the warm cookies instead. I would have never faced it because I would have pointed out the ice cream without a second thought.
All of this will give me my life back.
As you can see, my intuitive eating journey was not without setbacks, frustrations, and fears, but the end result was worth it in every way. I hope this article has inspired you to take the intuitive eating journey yourself. It will give you your life back.

They're not-girlfriends.
They fuck, they fight, and they kiss and make up.
On occasion they'll go out to dinner.
But it is not a date.
She'd fuck anything with a heartbeat.
She hasn't fucked anything since her.
They are complicated at the best, completely down right dysfunctional at their worst.
Maybe it isn't healthy or right or normal.
But it's just how they are and nobody has the heart to tell them otherwise.

Agriculture is the main occupation of India's rural population. However, given marginal land holdings of tribal cultivators, along with the adoption of primitive methods of cultivation, lack of assured water for irrigation, etc., productivity is low.
Consequently, livelihood options have diminished proportionately in the rural areas, leading to poverty, lack of food security, and seasonal and permanent migration to towns and cities for better opportunities.Explore

Thank you for visiting Windham County CTGenWeb, part of the USGenWeb Project. Your participation is very welcome! 2016 is the USGenWeb Project's 20th year of volunteer service to the genealogical community. Whether you are just getting started in your research, or have been an avid genealogist for years, I hope you will find guidance and helpful information here to enhance your search.
No contribution is too small to be of help to fellow researchers, so if you have something to share, please let me know! I am Patricia ("Pat") Sabin. My interest in Windham County is through my Sabin and related families of Pomfret and Woodstock. I do not live in Connecticut, and unfortunately, may not be able to answer personal research questions. I will try to point you in the right direction. If you follow the links at the top of the page, you'll find excellent primary research material. Also, you will want to visit the main page at The CTGenWeb Project.
Brief History Of Windham County, Connecticut
In the early commerce between the colonies of Massachusetts and Connecticut a popular route over the land was through the region now covered by Windham county. Remote from the sea shore, and possessing no navigable lakes or rivers, it was perfectly reasonable that this territory should be for a time overlooked, or rather that it should be passed by as a goodly land for the home-seekers in a new world to locate upon. Accessibility by water was to the first settlers an almost absolutely essential feature in any site chosen by them for the planting of a little colony. But we may well imagine that the fertile valleys and hills of this beautiful region, and the picturesque attractions of the future Windham did not long remain unnoticed. The land became known to the English about the year 1635. When, about that time, the early colonists began to traverse the hideous and trackless wilderness, on the way from Massachusetts to the Connecticut river, tradition tells us their encampment for the night was on Pine hill in Ashford. A rude track, called the Connecticut Path, obliquely crossing the Wabbaquasset country, became the main thoroughfare of travel between the two colonies. Hundreds of families toiled over it to new homes in the wilderness. The fathers of Hartford and New Haven, ministers and governors, captains and commissioners, government officials and land speculators, crossed and recrossed over it. Civilization passed to regions beyond but made no abiding place here for more than half a century.
On of the most indefatigable land speculators of that period was Mr. John Winthrop. In Massachusetts, in Rhode Island, in Connecticut and upon Long Island his tracks may be seen, as, first in one locality and then in another, he obtained title more or less perfect to the wild lands occupied by the Indians. Here in the territory now occupied by Windham county he was the first Englishman to receive from the natives a deed for an indefinite quantity of land. This conveyance beats date November 2d, 1653, and purports to have been given by James, sachem of Quinebaug, and confirmed by Massashowitt, his brother, and also to have been made with the consent, full and free ; of Aguntus, Pumquanon, Massitiarno, his brother, and Moas, and all the rest of the chief men of these parts; The confirmation by other than James was made on the 25th of the same month, the writings being witnessed by Richard Smith, Samuel Smith, John Gallop, James Avery and William Weloma.
Thanks to Julie Middleton for her
dedication to Windham County Genealogy 2008-2016 . We will miss
you, Julie! The
Original Windham County Site was created & maintained by
Elaine Merrell , County Coordinator, 1996-2008. Elements of
the current page design were inspired by Maureen Mead. You all have my profound appreciation.

Welcome to the Webpage of
Dr. Anna L. Jacobsen
Plant Ecology and Evolutionary Biology
Plant Structure-Function
Research Methods
Dr. Jacobsen's Homepage Jacobsen Lab Research Page Jacobsen Lab Publications
My research examines plant structure and function with a focus on the xylem of woody plants and how plants respond to water stress and drought.
The techniques and equipment that I use in my research are based on published methods and protocols, but because the equipment needed to conduct these measures must be custom built and is not available in total from any single source or with any single set of instruction, it is sometimes difficult for students and researchers who are trying to adopt these techniques. In the interest of assisting those who are interested in incorporating some of these methods into their own research, I am working to post detailed descriptions of the parts, models, construction of, and use of these techniques and equipment.
The hydraulic techniques, methods, and equipment that I describe below and that I use in my lab have been thoroughly examined and tested. These tests have repeatedly shown that these methods produce reliable data on a wide range of species.
Please email me if you notice something that is unclear or incorrect in any of these files. I would be happy to answer any questions that you have about these methods.
Plant Hydraulic Research Methods:
Methods for the air-injection of single vessels to determine the air-seeding pressure distribution of vessels within samples
Single vessel air-injection
Contributed by Dr. Martin Venturas
(posted 9/23/2015)
This file (pdf) contains a list of parts (with parts numbers) for assembling a system for measuring the air-seeding pressure of individual vessels. These data may be compiled to develop a vulnerability distribution for vessels.
Methods for measuring hydraulic conductivity, xylem specific hydraulic conductivity, and leaf specific hydraulic conductivity:
Hydraulic conductivity apparatus
(posted 5/19/2011, updated 8/18/2011, updated 8/27/2014)
This file (pdf) contains a list of parts (with parts numbers) for assembling a system for measuring xylem hydraulic conductivity (Kh), as well as schematics, pictures of the system that we use in my lab, and additional notes about how to use the system. This file also contains details about how to measure and calculate xylem specific conductivity (Ks) and leaf specific conductivity (Kl).
Methods for flushing stem or root samples to measure maximum hydraulic conductivity:
Flushing apparatus
(posted 5/24/2011, updated 8/27/2014)
This file (pdf) contains detailed notes and schematics on how to construct a system to flush stem or root samples to determine maximum Kh (Khmax or Kmax), including photos of our current system and notes on how to assemble and use the system. The way that our system is currently configured, the flushing apparatus connects to the hydraulic conductivity apparatus and they both use the same captive air tank and filter. Additional notes in this file discuss some of the pros and cons to the flushing of samples prior to vulnerability to cavitation curve construction and notes on the importance of the timing of sample collection. Cavitation fatigue is also briefly discussed.
Methods for the standard centrifuge-based construction of vulnerability to cavitation curves (measuring cavitation resistance and the water potential at 50% loss in hydraulic conductivity, P50):
Centrifuge methods and vulnerability curve methods
(posted 5/25/2011, updated 8/31/2012)
This file (pdf) contains photos and schematics that describe how the centrifuge works to generate negative pressures, how to calculate pressures that are generated with the centrifuge using sample length and rpm, and some additional notes about our rotor design and modifications and how we use our system to generate vulnerability to cavitation curves. We have found that this system, as we use it, is very reliable and produces vulnerability curves that match dehydration curves, even for long vesselled species that contain open vessels through a sample.
Plant Anatomy Research Methods:
Methods for determination of the vessel length distribution of stem or root samples using silicon injection:
Silicon-injection vessel length distribution methods
(posted 8/19/2011; updated 8/20/2014)
This file (pdf) contains detailed methods for using silicon-injection to determine mean vessel length and the vessel length distribution of stem or root samples.
Methods for determination of maximum vessel length using air-injection:
Air-injection vessel length methods
(posted 8/20/2014)
This file (pdf) contains detailed methods for using air-injection to estimate the maximum vessel length of stem or root samples.
Methods for staining to determine active xylem area, sapwood area, and/or to identify hydraulically active (i.e. conductive) vessels:
Active xylem staining methods
(posted 8/27/2014)
This file (pdf) contains detailed methods for mixing and filtering a crystal violet dye solution and using this dye solution to stain stem or root samples in order to identify the active xylem area, sapwood area, or hydraulically active vessels found within these sections.

We are solitary travelers in a vast universe, consulting maps, looking for signs, hoping to figure out what it's all about. We can only be the sum of our experiences, large, small, funny, terrifying. Existence itself is surreal and precarious and exalting and tragic. We cannot see ahead. But all creatures large and small proceed through it, even though each knows instinctively that an end is coming. It is in how we proceed through existence that counts.
Initially, I painted objects. Now I try to paint ideas.
Ever since I was a kid, I've been fascinated by works of the Old Masters. I loved the depictions of saints, martyrs and peasants. Additionally, I was deeply intrigued with the methods and techniques, and that intrigue continues to this day.
Of all the traditional art forms, modern oil painters interact the least with their materials. Everything is prepared for us - supports, grounds, paints, mediums and varnishes.
On the face of it, this is an advantage. But in reality, painters are deprived. Because it's so easy to purchase ready-made supplies off the shelf, we are cheated of the abiding satisfaction that comes from a more hands-on experience of the materials of our craft. Paint manufacturers work very hard to deliver a product with a uniformly consistent texture and with an homogenous body color from one tube of paint to another. For example, we are offered generic, blended earth colors instead of a selection from the richly varied naturally occurring colors. To further complicate things, there is a wide array of student-grade paints. Sadly, such paints are to high-quality oil paint what so-called "juice drinks" are to actual juice.
Those who are curious about their materials, who are genuinely interested in how the Old Masters accomplished what they did, enter an even more bewildering maze of literature, conflicting claims, and specialized products. The 19th century was a period of intense curiosity about the techniques of the Old Masters, and the result was a large body of writings and theories, many of them now largely debunked by modern conservators, but these works - and their legacy - still command a wide audience.
After wading through the writings of respected 19th and 20th century "authorities", after trying some of the formulas and special techniques, one finally experiences "secrets fatigue", and decides - rightly - that those old guys didn't actually have any special secrets. Instead, the secret was an intimate understanding of their basic materials based on generations of experience. The materials were simple: pigment, linseed or walnut oil binder, marble dust or chalk, hide glue. The use of resins was actually quite limited.
It is that very intimate acquaintance with materials that the modern painter lacks, that art schools bypass with a condescending shrug, that paint manufacturers would rather we don't bother questioning too closely. We call that intimate acquaintance "craft".
We live in a general social climate that wants things now, that seemingly can't grasp the concept of patience as the key to great understanding, that has not experienced the profound peace of something as simple as kneading bread.
Art and craft inform each other. If painting is a means of personal evolution, then the craft is the fundamental basis of any personal growth. But if painting is only a means to an economic end, then the concept of craft is useless, and expediency reigns.
With a glass muller and glass slab, I make most of my own paints. Some of the pigments I like to use are not available from commercial oil paint manufacturers. I prefer the working characteristics of a paint that has not been loaded with additives designed to extend shelf life or otherwise modify the personality of a pigment in order to make it mass-marketable. There are niche-market craftspeople producing high quality paints and products - Robert Doak and Natural Pigments, for example, but once again, the artist is removed from the experience of craft.
Studying the oil has been the most enlightening part of my painting journey. How the Old Masters handled their oil is arguably the most important single technology of the period. On one hand, we do not know precise details, but on the other hand, there is a great deal of data in manuscripts. What we can be certain of is that artists processed their own oils to suit their needs, using relatively simple techniques.
There is ample evidence that oils were frequently heat-bodied. The use of sun oil was commonplace. The addition of lead changed these oils significantly. The result is oil which dries faster, yellows less, is more resinous, and delivers a greater film strength. This can all be easily done by the artist.
Oil and Chalk Putty Medium
It has long been known that Velasquez used a medium made of sun oil and ground calcite (chalk). The London National Gallery book "Rembrandt: Art in the Making" shows that Rembrandt frequently used a similar medium. The putty is easy for the artist to make: lightly bodied oil, stone dust, and sometimes the addition of a little egg. Numerous consistencies are possible, enabling the artist to use a range of techniques from smooth to impasto. Most notably, adding putty to paint increases its transparency without affecting film strength or chroma. You can read more about the putty system on Tad Spurgeon's site, as he has done extensive testing and documentation.

CLOSED: Govindas
Carrera 20, no. 34-61 (at near Parque Santander cathedral), Bucaramanga, Colombia,
Offers a set menu for lunch for around US$3-4 which includes soup, salad, main dish, rice, bread, juice, tea, and dessert. The atmosphere is Hare Krishna inspired. Also offering books, soy and other natural products, DVDs, cooking classes, and some events. Food is usually sold out after 2pm. JAN 2014 REPORTED AND CONFIRMED SHUT DOWN/CLOSED - owners teamed up with another restaurant, Radha.
Category: Vegan-friendly, Lacto, Indian, Hare Krishna
Reviews (3)First Review by iceicekati
Good meal - Edit
They serve 1 single set menu; soup, main dish, dessert for 6000 pesos. May contain milk. Serving starts at 12.
They also have fast snacks: when I visited, it were slices of pizza, hamburgers (both with milk cheese) and empanadas.
They also sell a variety of meat substitutes, a soy cheese; both for about 8000 pesos a package. Soy based yogurth is also available.
Pros: good quality, friendly waiters, healty
Cons: small servings, may have milk
Decent food - Edit
The neighborhood isn't the greatest, but during the middle of the day it's OK. The food was about average to me, but the people who work there are very nice, and they stayed open a little later than normal for me. They are closed on Sunday, but open for lunch the other six days. Probably once was enough for me but would eat there again if I were close by.
Pros: Food OK, Price
Great set lunch menu - Edit
Govindas has a nice Hare Krishna atmosphere and helpful staff that even invited us to an event while we were there. The set menu was tasty but also healthy and had good size portions, not too big but a variety of tastes and styles.
Only a few steps away from one of Bucaramangas most important plazas, so make it a stop on your sight-seeing route!
Pros: healthy , good value, friendly staff
Cons: runs out of food at 2ish, not a lot of options

Oregon, like many parts of the western U.S., is currently in a drought and experienced a record low snow pack this year. EWEB Spokesman Joe Harwood isn't anticipating any mandated water restrictions, like in certain parts of California. Harwood: "We don't think that's going to happen, and that's why we're taking this voluntarily approach because just because you can use water, doesn't mean you always should." EWEB - The Next 100 Years! By Desmond • Jun 15, 2015 Recorded on: June 12th, 2015 Air Date: June 15th, 2015 Delivery of utility services like electricity and water could take new directions especially for publicly owned utilities like Oregon's largest publicly owned utility, Eugene Water & Electric Board (EWEB), a ratepayer-owned utility sometimes called one of the best in the nation. EWEB is preparing to work on the next Integrated Electric Resource Plan (IERP) continuing community engagement to design a resilient energy future. City Of Eugene Helps Bring Fiber Cable To Three Downtown Buildings By Karen Richards • Jun 4, 2015 City of Eugene The City of Eugene has coordinated a pilot project to bring high-speed fiber optic cable to three buildings downtown. Two were connected last week. Fiber optic lines already span much of Eugene. The schools, the city, and major medical facilities have it. But a lot of other fiber is "dark." It hasn't been taken from its source to people who would use it. The city spent 100-thousand dollars to help light some of the dark cable, hoping to attract and retain businesses downtown. Economic Development Planner Anne Fifield says it's not just tech companies who can benefit: UO Foundation Dumps EWEB Riverfront Redevelopment Plans By Angela Kellner • May 20, 2015 UO Foundation The University of Oregon Foundation dropped a bombshell Tuesday when it announced it would not pursue the redevelopment of EWEB's riverfront property in downtown Eugene. Eugene Water & Electric Board Commissioners chose the UO Foundation last October over two Portland developers to transform the utility's 17-acre diamond in the rough property along the Willamette River. But the Foundation has now backed out, saying the deal is too financially risky. Dam Roll-gate Failures Spur Lawsuit By Rachael McDonald • May 8, 2015 USGS Eugene Water and Electric Board is suing the firm that designed and engineered a roll-gate lifting system on the Leaburg Dam. Two of the three gates have failed. Eugene Master Gardener Plant Sale Sprouting This Saturday By Desmond O'Boyle • Apr 17, 2015 www.eugenecascadescoast.org The Lane County Master Gardener Association is holding its annual plant sale Saturday in downtown Eugene. But, organizers are worried the cancelation of the annual Earth Day event might impact turnout. EWEB Hopes To Have One Rollgate Fixed On Leaburg Dam Soon By Rachael McDonald • Jan 2, 2015 EWEB The Eugene Water and Electric Board is hoping to get one of two malfunctioning roll gates on the Leaburg Dam repaired by mid-January. One of three roll-gates broke down on the 85-year old dam on the McKenzie River in 2012. EWEB has been working on repairs and hopes to have it back in operation in a couple of weeks. Late last month, a 2nd roll-gate malfunctioned. EWEB spokesman Lance Robertson says the utility hasn't yet determined why. He says the dam is basically out of commission- with only one gate working. EWEB Launches Text-Based Outage Reporting System By Karen Richards • Dec 15, 2014 People text donations, they text votes to reality shows, now they can text a power outage. In time for winter weather, the Eugene Water and Electric Board has launched a new reporting service. EWEB spokesman Joe Harwood says when their system was overloaded in February's snowstorm, they started working on a solution. During that storm they also had to educate some younger customers who didn't know they had to tell EWEB when their power was out: Several Thousand EWEB Customers Lose Power Saturday By Anni Katz • Dec 14, 2014 Several areas in Eugene were without power for about two hours Saturday afternoon. The outages started just before three p.m., affecting several thousand Eugene Water and Electric Board customers and a University of Oregon basketball game. Four substations malfunctioned, taking out power to the U of O campus, and Whiteaker and Coburg Road neighborhoods. Traffic signals went dark during the outage and the second half of the women's basketball game was delayed by over an hour while waiting for the power to come back on. Lane County High Schoolers Can Experience A Day In The Life Of A Utility Worker By Rachael McDonald • Oct 15, 2014 EWEB The Eugene Water and Electric Board will host the construction and utilities career fair Thursday for Lane County high school students. More than 500 Lane County high school students will have the opportunity to work in construction, utility trade and road maintenance for a day. Joe Harwood, spokesman for EWEB says the idea is to inspire young people to pursue this kind of career. Pages« first ‹ previous 1 2 3 4 next › last »

It's possible to have many compartments with the same codebase, and these all get lumped together in about:memory. This is particularly bad if you have a Jetpack-based add-on, because you can have dozens of compartments merged under the name "[System Principal]". It's misleading to lump them all together, we should separate them.
The very simplest thing we could do is add the compartment's address as a suffix to its name. That'll give the required separation without giving any indication of where each duplicate compartment came from. Maybe we can do better, eg. indicate which system-principal compartments are sandboxes.

Here's the output of about:memory upon start-up with Bugzilla Tweaks installed, with the soon-to-be-attached patch applied.

This patch adds the address of a compartment, but only does it for system compartments, because (a) they're the only ones we're seeing lots of compartments with the same name, and (b) the addresses are a bit ugly, so we shouldn't show them where they're not useful.

Which hard-coding? I'm not relying on the name of the system principal, I'm using JSCompartment::isSystemCompartment. Indeed, the patch removes one place where the name was hard-coded, using SYSTEM_PRINCIPAL_SPEC instead.
Yeah, the original sin was done by gregor. We will try to add some clean API any-time-now (tm).
Gregor's hack was fixed by bug 671482. Bug 669123 is still open for a more general partitioning of compartments, should we desire it.

When selecting investments, the portfolio manager uses an approach that combines top-down macro-economic analysis and bottom-up stock selection. The analysis takes into consideration:
Once certain sectors and industries have been identified, the portfolio manager looks for companies or securities within those areas that have earnings growth potential. Some of the factors considered for suitable investment include market expertise or dominance, franchise durability, solid business fundamentals, strong and ethical management and a commitment to shareholder interests.

Performance data shown represents past performance, which is no guarantee of future results. Current performance may be higher or lower than the past performance data shown. Investment returns and the value of an investment will fluctuate, and an investor's shares, when sold, may be worth more or less than their original cost. You can obtain performance data current to the most recent month-end (available within seven business days after the most recent month-end) by calling 800-422-1050 or visiting www.harborfunds.com.
The Harbor Funds performance shown assumes the reinvestment of dividend and capital gain distributions and is net of management fees and expenses. Returns for periods less than one year are not annualized.
From time to time, certain fees and/or expenses have been voluntarily or contractually waived or reimbursed, which has resulted in higher returns. Without these waivers or reimbursements, the returns would have been lower. Voluntary waivers or reimbursements may be applied or discontinued at any time without notice. Only the Board of Trustees may modify or terminate contractual fee waivers or expense reimbursements.
The MSCI AC (All Country) World (ND) Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed and emerging markets. This unmanaged index does not reflect fees and expenses and is not available for direct investment.
The Harbor Global Growth Fund received a 3-star Overall Morningstar Rating™ as of 01/31/2017 out of 849 World Stock funds. Global Growth Fund was rated 2-star among 849 and 4-star among 675 domestic World Stock funds for the three- and five-year periods ended 01/31/2017, respectively. The Morningstar Rating is for the Institutional share class only; other classes may have different performance characteristics.
The Morningstar Rating™ for funds, or "star rating", is calculated for managed products (including mutual funds, variable annuity and variable life subaccounts, exchange-traded funds, closed-end funds, and separate accounts) with at least a three-year history. Exchange-traded funds and open-ended mutual funds are considered a single population for comparative purposes. It is calculated based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a managed product's monthly excess performance, placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of products in each product category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars, and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. The Overall Morningstar Rating for a managed product is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five-, and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. The weights are: 100% three-year rating for 36-59 months of total returns, 60% five-year rating/40% three-year rating for 60-119 months of total returns, and 50% 10-year rating/30% five-year rating/20% three-year rating for 120 or more months of total returns. While the 10-year overall star rating formula seems to give the most weight to the 10-year period, the most recent three-year period actually has the greatest impact because it is included in all three rating periods.

Theresa, wise move! We have had LTC insurance for many yrs which has an
automatic cost of living increase built in. One of our policies allows a return
of our monies if we do not use it which I understand has not been available
for several yrs now.
The costs are huge! Once you have a loved one experience the cost it
becomes real.

Watch Alia Bhatt's Hilarious, Perfect Response To Jokes About Her Intelligence
Required viewing for anyone who's ever made an "Alia Bhatt's so dumb" joke. Oh, and of course All India Bakchod are the masterminds behind this.
1. In December 2013, Alia Bhatt was asked by Karan Johar (on talk show Koffee With Karan) to name the president of India… And she answered incorrectly:
(The correct answer here was Pranab Mukherjee.)
2. She quickly (unsurprisingly) became an easy target for the merciless World Wide Web to joke about her general knowledge, or lack thereof.
3. Earlier this year, she reportedly commented on the incident and its consequences, saying she was unaffected by the jokes:
"I don't get upset at it, I laugh at it. I am the first person to laugh at myself. I always say that I rather be stupid than pretend to be intelligent… Basically there are these Twitter and Facebook jokes on me, because I am apparently stupid. They are very hilarious."
4. As if that wasn't a perfect enough response, Bhatt just starred as herself in a hilarious mockumentary recounting her fictional attempts to become more intelligent in the days following the incident.
5. The video, written and produced by All India Bakchod and directed by Shakun Batra, also stars Karan Johar, Parineeti Chopra, Arjun Kapoor, and Mahesh Bhatt.
6. Watch the brilliance in full here:
7. All India Bakchod's Rohan Joshi talked to BuzzFeed about the experience of working with Alia Bhatt and the rest of the video's star-studded cast:
When all those Alia jokes started after her Koffee With Karan GK Quiz fiasco, Alia herself was really chilled about it. The awesome thing about her is that in general she's really sporting about how she's perceived. She doesn't take her public image too seriously and wears it really well. Also, by dumb coincidence, she's naturally funny as fuck. When we pitched the idea to her, she committed to the comedy of it, good and proper. Her comic timing is great, she makes ridiculous faces, and there were times when she was like, 'This isn't mean enough!'
What was really awesome for us was how easily she and everyone else agreed; Karan Johar, Arjun Kapoor, Parineeti Chopra, everyone just heard us out once and said, "Yeah, OK." That's exciting as hell for us because if more people from Bollywood open themselves up to self-parody so easily, everyone's going to be able to have SO MUCH FUN with that on the internet.

Visa is the global leader in electronic payments, accounting for half of all credit card transactions and roughly 75% of debit card transactions in recent years. Visa generates revenue by charging fees to its customers based on both the dollar volume of card activity and the number of transactions processed through its network.
Impacts and Opportunities for Information Technology Service Companies
A 2014 report on consumer payment choices reveals that cash makes up the single largest share of consumer transaction activity; however, cash accounts for a small portion of the total value of payments. The findings suggest that consumers don't use electronic methods of payment as often as cash, but when they do, they tend to be for higher-value transactions. ((Bennett, Conover, O'Brien and Advincula. "Cash Continues to Play a Key Role in Consumer Spending: Evidence from the Diary of Consumer Payment Choice." April 2014. Accessed May 22, 2014. http://www.frbsf.org/cash/files/FedNotes_Evidence_from_DCPC.pdf))
Low Impact Service Company
Portfolio 21 considers Visa to be a low impact service company. As a service business, this company's environmental footprint is minimal due to its business model and structure. It does not produce consumable products, operate manufacturing facilities, utilize outsourced production facilities, or operate retail storefronts.
Visa's direct environmental impact stems primarily from its data centers, which handle Visa's data traffic and transaction processing. While the energy required to power the company's data centers is small compared to companies in manufacturing industries, it is still an important impact area for the company. According to Visa's Carbon Disclosure Project questionnaire response, the company has reduced its carbon dioxide intensity 15% from 2012 to 2013.
Areas for Improvement
Energy Efficiency
Portfolio 21 encourages Visa to set energy efficiency targets for its data centers.

This week sees my CD player and iPod blessed with some rather good slabs of whatever CDs are made of. Varying types of hard rock, but all of it rather intriguing. What is even better is that I have been privileged to hear two damn fine bands that had not yet reached my radar screen.
CD Reviews:
Red Light Rippers: Nobody Likes a Rat
The last time I heard unknown sleaze rock that was this good it was by a band called Guns N Roses and it was way back in 1989… on vinyl. This stuff is just sweating bodily fluids you would rather not think about. It's driving nasty and catchy as a case of the clap from a hooker. I mean, with tracks like "Trailer Trash Trixie", what the hell do you expect? "Let's Go" leads you to a place you really wanna go.
Staci T. Rat has that vocal scratch and sleaze and reminds me of Taimi Downe of Faster Pussycat. As with FP and Hanoi Rocks, there is a taste of glam trash. They are touring the UK with Glenn Matlock (of the Sex Pistols) and have at least one date with Gilby Clarke (ex-Guns N Roses). I am going to see this lot live and can't bloody wait. It's one of those records that leaves you with a cheeky sordid grin that's hard to wipe off. So what is wrong with a bit of guilty pleasure?
Stratovarius: (self-titled)
After all the turmoil within this band (a stabbing and a breakdown of band leader Timo Tolkki), it is quite a surprise to see them back for another go — their 11th. Fear not, they have not gone all modern on us. They're still playing uber-symphonic metal with oodles of class. They have a song called "Gotterdammerung (Zenith Of Power)", just in case you remain unconvinced. The Finnish band has all but the bassist of the previous outing on this CD.
Unlike many symphonic metal albums, this CD has been kept to nine tracks which is probably a good thing. What is most amusing to me is the track
"Just Carry On" sounds as if it's from A-Ha or even Europe in their prime and is quite good Scandi-pop/rock. Unlike much of the band's stuff, this track is catchy and very approachable. For most bands, this CD would be impressive. Looking back at Stratovarius' past few years, it's a bloody miracle.
Slave to the System: (self titled)
With two members of Brother Cane (Damon Johnson and Roman Glick), the drummer from Queensyche Scott Rockenfield, and a former Queensryche guitarist Kelly Gray (who also does vocals), this CD is an intriguing prospect to be sure. It has Audioslave/Velvet Revolver potential in abundance. I have to admit, with great amusement, that this band sounds a bit like the half-way point between the above two bands musically veering into each band's territory and back again repeatedly. Now it would be terribly unfair to suggest that this band is trying to ape either of the two supergroups. It just seems as if they have taken old style heavy rock and combined it with modern influences and come up with a similar outcome. As you would expect with the players on this CD, it is all tight as hell and of the utmost quality. Take a listen to the title track, with its killer solo and tell me this ain't great stuff. "Live this Life" is a wonderful flowing power-ballad. If you initially don't think it's up to much…give it time. It's truly a grower. It will no doubt be a contender for heavy rock album of the year.
Single Reviews:
NFD: "Light My Way"
Goth is back with a vengeance, well if left in the hands of these guys. With the Sisters touring again, it's ripe for another NFD release. Of course the lads are happy to create their own market as they are starting a goth club in London. This song is available for download. The CD single includes a radio edit and "Fog Descends" version of the title track taken from their new album Dead Pool Rising as well as "Unearthed." Need I say it's miserable as f***, but still catchy?
Well, that is my lot for this week. I should have plopped The Trews CD into this collection of reviews, but I wanted to be able to listen to it for another week. It's that bloody good. Let's just say you should forget the poxy "the" in front of the name cause it ain't one of them "the" bands kicking around now.
Stay safe and stay rocking…oh yes…go see live music while you're at it!Powered by Sidelines

There's nothing to worry about it IMO.

I'm ready for the pressure.
The drama and the pleasure!
If there is one thing I want to see here, it's HUMOR.
I believe I can fly!
I believe I can touch the sky!
I think about it every night and day!
I stand in awe of my body.

well chances are you have a layer of scum in your water that is trapping the air bubbles, why are you spray barring out of the water, disrupting the surface to that extent is not great, i would recommend you aim the bar at the glass at the surface, this will weaken the current but still provide water movement at the surface to break up whatever is currently causing the bubbles to stay intact.

No more annoying than posting all in bold, and every bit as harmful to your fish.;)
Logic is only the beginning of wisdom
