A flower so petite that a blade of grass dwarfs it. A flower so localised that it occurs at just two British sites. And a flower so reclusive it remains resolutely shut except in full sun. Such is the sand crocus. What more quixotic a quarry for your weekend?
Dawlish Warren, a sandy spit on Devon's Exe Estuary, is a botanist's delight. Spend the morning on hands and knees searching for rare plants. The sand crocus flowers in late March or early April. You should see them in the short, sandy grassland that lines the compound by the visitor centre.
Then walk to "dune ridge", between the seawall and Warren Point. Look carefully at sheltered sunny spots for the ridge's star species: the sand lizard. This is a fabulous time to see this rare reptile, and the introduced population is thriving. The males are garbed vivid green in the breeding season.
Dawlish Warren has one of the Exe Estuary's main high-tide wader roosts, with ringed plover, dunlin, oystercatcher, grey plover, sanderling and turnstone all best viewed from the hide overlooking the Bight.
Depart Dawlish for a late afternoon stroll at Chudleigh Knighton Heath. Amid the ling, bell heather and western gorse, there is a chance of spotting adders before the evening chill.
Spend day two at Wembury, which volunteers one of Britain's finest rock-pooling experiences and one of its rarest songbirds. The lowest tides (a few days after the new moon) expose the greatest expanse of rocky reefs and residual pools. With careful searching, you should find a dozen or more species of marine marvel. If you extract animals use a bucket (not a net), house them singly in a vessel containing seawater and repatriate the creatures to their lairs.
Beadlet anemone is common; one-third of its 7cm length comprises retractable tentacles. Blue-rayed limpets, strip-lit with neon, cling to rocks. You may see five types of crab: common hermit, porcelain, velvet swimming, edible and shore. The small fish include rock goby, tompot blenny and common blenny. As the tide rises, retreat to dry land. Wembury is prime cirl bunting territory. No bird is more closely associated with Devon than this attractive, stripe-headed seedeater. Populations have trebled in the past 20 years.

Meeting on casino delayed
A meeting between Leavenworth County commissioners and the chief of the Delaware Tribe of Indians has been postponed until Thursday afternoon.
The meeting, originally set Tuesday afternoon, was rescheduled because commissioners wanted to attend the DARE graduation program at Tonganoxie Elementary School. The meeting will be at 2:30 p.m. Thursday at the courthouse in Leavenworth.
Dee Ketchum, chief of the Delaware Tribe, is expected to discuss the possibility of constructing a gambling casino in Leavenworth County.
The Mirror will provide coverage next week of both the DARE graduation program and the commissioners' meeting with Ketchum.

France Criticized For Overtures To Iraq
Drawing sharp criticism from the United States and Britain, France received a senior Iraqi official Friday for the first time since the Persian Gulf war of 1991 and agreed to open a diplomatic office in Baghdad soon.
In separate statements, the United States and Britain said that they had not been consulted about the French moves and that the moment was not ripe for easing international pressure on Iraq to comply fully with Security Council resolutions.
The visit by the Iraqi official, Deputy Prime Minister Tariq Aziz, brought no sweeping breakthrough in Iraq's campaign to end its isolation and obtain a relaxation of U.N. sanctions, including a punishing oil-trade embargo, that have shriveled the Iraqi economy.
After a breakfast meeting with Aziz, Foreign Minister Alain Juppe told reporters that France continued to insist that Iraq comply fully with all Security Council resolutions. "Some progress has been made over the past months," he said. "More remains to be done."

The problem here seems to be that no code in NSS ever calls
nssPointerTracker_finalize to destroy the pointer tracker table.
*** Bug 397476 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Created attachment 282911 [details] [diff] [review]
monster cleanup patch v1
I set out to write a patch to call nssPointerTracker_finalize to
plug the leak. I discovered many problems with the Stan pointer
tracking code, and I decided that fixing that code is not an objective
of NSS 3.12. So, rather than fix it (to fix the leaks), I decided to
ifdef it all out with a new "feature test macro" named DEBUG_TRACKER.
Along the way, I discovered a bunch of other issues, including
- inconsistent ifdefs. Some function definitions are inside of an
ifdef that uses one symbol, but the invocations of those functions
are inside of an ifdef for a different symbol. I attempted to fix
that by putting all the pointer tracker definitions and invocations
inside of #ifdef DEBUG_TRACKER.
- the CKFW code exports all its NSPR-like "stubs" from any windows DLL
into which it is linked. The solution is to remove PR_IMPLEMENT from
all the function definitions.
- The coding style used in Stan code, which separates function names
in all function definitions from the left parenthesis that follows,
defeats ctags, the utility that produces tags files for vi and emacs,
making those editors unable to find Stan functions by name. The
solution is to join the line with the function name with the following
line that contains only a left parenthesis.
- Some (not much) function definitions put the opening left brace
on the end of the line that names the function, rather than on a
new line by itself. This defeats vi and emacs ability to skip
forward or backword to the next (or previous) function in the source.
Solution is to break those lines, putting the brace on its own separate
- tons of "#ifdef notdef" code that we're pointlessly maintaining.
Solution is to remove it.
So, I made those changes in all the files that I had to touch to ifdef
the pointer tracker code. The resulting patch is pretty big, but it's
all mechanical, and should be easy to review. The only logic changes
are the ifdef changes, which remove the pointer tracking stuff.
I will review the patch myself in bugzilla before asking others to review

monster cleanup patch v1
Bob, please read comment 5 above and then review the first two patches for this bug.
In the course of writing up bug 398090, it occurred to me that there is a
muck smaller quicker simpler HACK solution to this particular leak.
It RELIES on the fact that only one of the 5 pointer tracker objects ever
gets initialized successfully, and we know which one that is, so we don't
have to worry about the other 4. We can leave the existing tracker code
running for the one tracker instance that already works, and not worry
about the other 4 instances that don't. I'll work up a patch for that.

This patch needs more testing before I ask for review.
If it works, it will solve the same pointer tracker stacks as
those listed in the second patch (attachment 282912 [details] [diff] [review]) above.

r+ This patch and the one marked 'HACK v1 do not appear to be mutually exclusive.
I think it's reasonable to clean up the pointer stuff and put it under it's own #define, which this patch does.
I would at least like to see the PR_OnceWithArg chnage from the HACK v1 patch as well.

The so-called "alternative HACK" patch replaced calls to NSS's "call_once"
function with calls to the essentially identical PR_CallOnce function.
It also added a code path that attempted to free the values allocated by
the pointer tracker code through that PR_CallOnce code.
When that patch was checked in, the amount of memory leaked (as reported by
tinderbox) was reduced significantly (more than I expected), but not all
the items allocated by the pointer tracker code through that PR_CallOnce code
are being freed. There are still two leak stacks that appear in selfserv,
strsclnt and ocspclnt. The only difference is that these stacks now show
PR_CallOnce where they previously showed call_once. So, I need to figure out
why those allocations are not being freed by the new nssArena_Shutdown
function. The two new stacks are:
OK, I figured it out.
There are TWO copies of the Stan nssPointerTracker code being linked
into NSS libraries, one into nss3, the other into nssckbi.
Each copy has its own PRCallOnce structure, its own lock and its own
hash table.
The nssckbi allocation stacks are shown above. The nss3 stacks are:
The patch that was committed calls nssArena_Shutdown in nss3, but the
patch does not provide for calling it in nssckbi. So, the remaining
fix is to call it in nssckbi somewhere.
Created attachment 305266 [details] [diff] [review]
patch for lib/ckfw, v1 (checked in)
Here's a proposal to fix the leak in nssckbi. Bob, please review.
I'm not entirely satisfied with this patch. I'm not sure this is the right approach. But off hand I haven't thought of a better one.
CKFW allows the existence of multiple "instances". We want to destroy the
pointer tracker table for CKFW after (when) the last NSSArena that was
created for a CKFW instance is destroyed. The trouble is that we cannot
accurately tell when that has occurred because we cannot accurately tell
when an instance has created an NSSArena, nor when it has destroyed one.
Part way through the creation of an instance, it calls NSSArena_Create,
which will call PR_CallOnce to initialize the hash table of nssArenas.
CKFW's instance creation function may fail before, or after, that call to
NSSArena_Create, so we cannot tell, by looking at the return value from
the instance creation function, whether it created an NSSArena or not.
Likewise, we cannot tell from the destruction function whether it has
destroyed an NSSArena or not.
So, in this patch, I count the number of successful instance creations and
decrement the count with each successful instance destruction. If & when
the count of instances goes to zero, it destroys the pointer tracker stuff.
This approach has the property that it will be correct as long as no attempts
to initialize or finalize a CKFW instance ever fail, and it will be correct
(that is, will not leak) for SOME cases where failure to initialize or destroy an instance occurs. But in other cases where failure to initialize or destroy an instance occurs, it will still leak. For example, if an instance creation
fails after the pointer tracker has been initialized, there will be no
corresponding call to the instance destructor, and consequently the code to
destroy the pointer tracker will never be called.
An alternative approach to this one occurs to me. Rather than burdening each
shared library that uses NSSArenas with the responsiblity to clean up pointer
tracker stuff, we could try to put the tracker destruction logic into the
NSSArena code itself. Each time an NSSArena is created, we could increment
a counter, and decrement it on each NSSArena destruction. When it goes to
zero, we could destroy the pointer tracker.
But I see problems with that alternative approach, too.
1) Destruction (resetting) of a PRCallOnce structure is not atomic, so we
really don't want to do it anyplace where PR_CallOnce might get called on
a PRCallOnce structure near the same time that it is being destroyed/reset.
There is a chance that one NSSArena could be being created on one thread
at about the same time as the last NSSArena is being destroyed on another
2) It is possible for NSSArena creation to fail after the pointer tracker
has been created. If the NSSArena creation fails, then there will be no
matching call to the NSSArena destructor, and consequently the function to
destroy the pointer tracker will not be called.
So, I actually think that alternative is worse than the approach in this patch.
I think this proposed patch is good enough. Pointer trackers are only used
in debug builds, so there can be no pointer tracker leaks in optimized
Finally, I want to forestall any arguments about late/lazy initialization.
nssckbi is a PKCS#11 module. We are already doing the initialization in the
earliest possible function (C_Initialize) and the destruction in the latest
possible destructor (C_Finalize). There is no opportunity to create yet
another even earlier initialization function, or even later destruction
function than these, because the PKCS#11 API doesn't allow for them.
If all platforms supported a shared library initialization function that is
always called when a shared library is loaded, and a shared library destruction function that is always called when a shared library is unloaded, those functions could be used to handle pointer tracker allocation and deallocation.
But AFAIK, not all supported platforms have such load/unload functions for
shared libs.
Hmm. Here's another interesting observation.
CKFW has a file of "stub" functions for NSPR. Included in that file is a
stub implementation of the pointer tracker stuff. I gather than Bob
intended for ckfw's stub version of the pointer tracker stuff to be used
in nssckbi, rather then the real implementation in nss/lib/base. But the
leak stacks being reported show that the nss/lib/base version is being used,
not the stub version. I don't yet know why the stub versions are not used.
Is THAT the real problem here? Is the real solution to cause nssckbi to
use the stub version of the pointer tracker stuff?
RE the stub ---
I believe the stub is old code, back when we were trying to keep PKCS #11 modules independent of NSPR. I don't believe the stubs are still in use. Instead, we simply link directly witn NSPR.
The original purpose of the stubs were 1) to support explicit pkcs #11 locking semantics, and 2) worries about incompatible versions of NSPR in the address space. Both problems are anachronistic and do not play out in today's environments (where NSPR has binary compatibility guarentees and where OS's typically provide system level threads that all applications use).

patch for lib/ckfw, v1 (checked in)
The primary problem with these memory leaks is noise in our leak detection. The fact that error paths may cause these leaks to reappear should not be an issue since these are all one-time startup leaks.
Bob, Should we remove that file of stubs, if we no longer intend to use it?
If we no longer intend to use it, it would be bad if we accidentally did
use it.

There is no pointerTracker bug in ignored file (I just checked logs and you removed it in February), so this bugs seems to be fixed.

Michael Vick won't be packing his bags anytime soon, as the quarterback has worked out a restructured contract to remain with the Philadelphia Eagles, according to NFL.com. To stick around, Vick will take a pay cut from his $15.5 million salary.
The pay cut shouldn't hurt too much, though, as he can still earn up to $10 million, which is a nice chunk of change. Under the new contract, Vick will be available as an unrestricted free agent in 2014. The Eagles have noted that even with a new deal, Vick isn't guaranteed his job as starting quarterback. Vick turned over the ball 33 times in the last two seasons, and missed nine games due to injury.
Nick Foles, a rookie, filled in for Vick when needed, and looked decent, but still very green. It seems Vick will, essentially, be competing for the job with Foles. With the amount of money they're paying Vick, though, it's not too hard to see which horse they're betting on.
Vick's come a long way, since being the most hated man in the NFL. He served 19 months in prison for owning and operating a dog fighting ring, making national headlines.

Dex Media Reaches Deal With Lenders for Third Bankruptcy Filingby
Dex Media Inc. reached an agreement with some of its creditors Monday on a plan to enter Chapter 11 protection, setting in motion the company's third trip to bankruptcy court in less than a decade.
The plan comes after months of negotiations with creditors. If approved, it will help the phone-book publisher cut its $2.42 billion in debt and simplify its capital structure, according to a statement from the company.
Dallas-based Dex has been discussing a debt reorganization with holders of its more than $2 billion of loans since last fall and has been wrangling with a group of junior bondholders that considered putting the company into involuntary bankruptcy after it skipped an interest payment on Sept. 30, people with knowledge of the situation said last year.
Lenders holding $2.1 billion of Dex's loans must vote on the proposal by May 16, while holders of $270 million of subordinated notes must consent by May 30, according to the disclosure statement for the plan. The company said it has support for the prepackaged reorganization plan from a majority of its bondholders and creditors controlling two-thirds of its loans.
As part of the plan, Dex Media's senior secured lenders will exchange their $2.12 billion of claims for a new $600 million first-lien term loan. They'll also get claims on all of the equity of the reorganized entity. Bondholders will get a $5 million cash payment and warrants to buy up to 10 percent of the equity in the reorganized company, according to the statement.
The company said it intends to complete the restructuring during the third quarter.
The two businesses that formed Dex Media previously went through their own bankruptcies. R.H. Donnelley Corp. filed for Chapter 11 in May 2009, emerging in 2010 as Dex One Corp. Dex One then combined with SuperMedia Inc., another firm that had been through bankruptcy, in August 2012. The combined company filed for creditor protection again in March 2013 to complete the merger through a prepackaged bankruptcy proceeding.

Okay so this is the first time I've ever used a Morino and it just cocooned. What will happen when I sleep? Is there a rate at which the temperature changes?
Using a Morino for the first time, help?

I don't know for sure from personal experience, but reading up on things posted around this forum and on other sites...
I think you need to keep an eye on the temperature - it affects the characters you get. Not sure how much information is out there about temp ranges and how quickly they change but one other thread on TT mentions it is worth pausing them when they are in cocoon stage - here's a link - it might give you some other useful background info too: http://www.tamatalk....s/#entry3246539
Posted 02 November 2013 - 02:23 PM ( #3 )
From my experience, I was able to sleep without the cocoon burning/freezing. I tend to change the temperature right before I head off to bed.
Having said that, if it's your first Morino, I would maybe pause it just to be on the same side. I don't know how frequently you check your Tamagotchi's temperature!
Posted 02 November 2013 - 09:44 PM ( #4 )
I have a morino and I normally just pause it over night so I won't have to worry about it getting too hot or cold while i sleep. makes it take a bit longer to emerge from the cocoon but it's just how I do it

Story here:
Qatar pledged $100 million in humanitarian assistance Saturday to help Americans recover from Hurricane Katrina, heading a list of more than a dozen countries joining an outpouring of support.
They added to the more than 50 countries who had made pledges by the end of the day Friday.
"In these difficult circumstances, the people and the government of the state of Qatar would like to assure the people of the United States of its support and desire to assist the people in the affected area along the United States Gulf Coast," said a statement from the oil-rich Persian Gulf state's embassy.
"Please accept our solidarity as well as our heartfelt condolences for the tragic loss of so many precious lives," the statement said.[…]
Among the countries notifying the State Department on Saturday of their intention to contribute were Afghanistan and Pakistan.
Others joining the list were Argentina, Chile, the Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Nicaragua, Oman, Pakistan, Panama, Peru, Poland, Romania and Tunisia.
By Friday, offers had been received from Armenia, Australia, Austria, Azerbaijan, Bahamas, Belgium, Britain, Canada, China, Colombia, Cuba, Dominica, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, France, Germany, Greece, Georgia, Guatemala, Guyana, Honduras, Hungary, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Israel, Italy, Jamaica, Japan, Jordan, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Paraguay, the Philippines, Portugal, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Slovak Republic, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, South Korea, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, Venezuela and the United Arab Emirates.
The cynic in me would lament the fact that Qatar can certainly afford this donation, since they're getting so damn rich off of the high-priced oil they sell to us.
But it is still a very large sum of money that they are willingly giving to us in our time of need. And that is most certainly a welcome gesture, even if it costs me over 30 bucks now to fill up the tank in my little Neon…
(Also, it's great to see Poland belatedly stepping up to the plate to offer help…)Powered by Sidelines

It sometimes happens that I'll write something or receive a patch which passes regression tests but breaks the compiler so that it can't rebuild itself, but it's pretty uncommon. (And it helps me improve the test suite.:-) It's possible in principle to construct a bug which breaks things only after several compilations, but it seems pretty unlikely that such a thing could happen by accident in the SBCL approach, and it hasn't happened yet. > But perhaps that's a good thing---it encourages me to think more. Nah, it's not a good thing. It's just that I, and others, have been more motivated to work on other things, like outright bugs, like other aspects of development support (e.g. PROFILE), and like renaming things:-|. -- William Harold Newman <william.newman@...> "1.

There are all sorts of ways I should've qualified that. Reasonable people may differ on how much stuff like that should be in the code. For that matter, I'm responsible for some stuff like that -- not much, I hope, but some -- in SBCL. And in both codebases lots of bad stuff -- brokenness in PROFILE, brokenness in PCL::CLASS vs. CL::CLASS, unsafe handling of stack overflow, broken X86 function end breakpoints, whatever -- sits around for years not because people are too aesthetically crippled to realize it's a bad thing, but because there aren't resources to fix it. My point is not necessarily ooh, the CMU CL codebase is bad in any absolute way, but that sometimes there's a mismatch to my (somewhat extreme) priorities about what's an improvement. I recognize that this and other kinds of disorder can work surprisingly well, especially in a horses-for-courses way (i.e. on the right course). Like the famous "Worse is Better" essay, only along a slightly different axis. Etc. I wanted to say something a lot more nuanced, and I said something potentially offensive instead. Oh well. Oh hell.

Well I am proud of one of my little brothers! Last Thursday he got his CPL after going before the gun board (without any issues...gotta love a "shall issue" state!).
Well the first time he carried in public was NOT WalMart, 7 11, grocery store, NAPA... He carried to the Tulip Time Festival in Holland (where he is from). This means 100's of thousands of people and a cop at every corner. I too had carried to the festival earlier this week, with no incident (as I have for many years prior, due to my wife pulling the "family time" card and "forcing" me to go with her and the kids). Well his trip did not go so well...
He had volunteered to help direct parking at the civic center and apparently as he was walking to his post his shirt rode up and revealed his M&P .45 compact in olive drab. When he got to the volunteer station he was "greeted" by a few boys in blue and they asked if he would come with them. ..
Of course he did but he neglected to tell them IMMEDIATLY that he was a legal CCW holder as he had his CPL. They were "nice" enough to pull out his wallet for him and they asked if he had a weapon on him, Of course he answered yes and the asked why...He said "to protect myself and those around me from great bodily harm or rape"...they said, "good reason" and long story short he was told by the volunteer coordinator that "they were all set with volunteers for the days parade" and "We no longer need you". A friendly cop walked him to his vehicle and was kind enough to tell my brother not to let this eat him as he should continue to carry for the reason he had stated.
NOT a good LEO encounter but my brother learned some VERY valuable lessons in proper dress and that you MUST tell a LEO that you are carrying IMMEDIATLY! He admits that he was scared out of his gourd and that it was "only by the grace of God that I did not get a civil infraction".
Remeber to ALWAYS carry, NEVER tell and ALWAYS conceal!
Pray for our nations leaders!
Very good lesson, thank you for posting it.
Bummer but still a good lesson for all of us. Thanks for sharing!
ALWAYS carry! - NEVER tell!

'Great bodily harm or rape'?
Whatever happened to 'death'? LOL
I think that the LE encounter went well. He had to leave, but that was the organization, not the police. The police were actually encouraging.
I agree that the encounter went very well since he's required to immediately inform.

In that situation he should have advised the officer he had a ccw permit. It could have gone much worse under the circumstances.

For clarification (in Michigan) he doesn't have to go up to a officer and let him know just because they are in the area. Only if the officer approaches him for an offical reason. (Like what happened to him) But if you see an officer on the corner you do not have to tell him your armed.
It's too bad that the sheep didn't want a sheepdog to help out. You never know where the wolves will be.

Phoenix Suns
Jared Dudley's done right during Suns' win streak
The Phoenix Suns have trotted out five different starting lineups during the first 25 games of the 2012-13 season.
And it's no coincidence that their latest starting five — one that has five-year veteran Jared Dudley back in his natural small forward position — has generated instant returns.
Over his last four games, the former Boston College star has averaged 18.0 points, 4.7 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 2.0 steals per contest. The Suns in that same stretch are 3-1.
"I definitely think we're playing the right way," Dudley told Arizona Sports 620's Doug & Wolf Tuesday. "I try to tell people that yeah I was struggling earlier in the year, but as a team we we're struggling."
Dudley began the year as Phoenix's starting shooting guard, but poor ball movement limited his opportunities and the Suns certainly suffered because of it. During the team's 4-7 start, Dudley averaged 8.5 points per game on 42.5 percent shooting.
"You can tell the good teams that are playing well, because usually their role players are playing well," said Dudley. "That's usually because the ball is moving.
"Early in the season, and even up until the last couple of games, we were playing selfish basketball. We didn't have a lot of assists, but we had a lot of turnovers because we were going to the isolation one-on-one."
While the Suns have not shot above 48 percent during their current three-game win streak, the ball movement has been apparent as the team has averaged 24.3 assists in their victories over the Memphis Grizzlies, Utah Jazz and Sacramento Kings.
"We've shown these last three or four games, even though it's a small sample, if you play unselfish, if you play hard and you give it up to the next guy…you can be successful," said Dudley.

Talking shop with ESPN Chicago's Nick Friedell.
So how did you come to your position as ESPN Chicago's Bulls reporter, where have you worked previously?
The key for me was perseverance. When I was growing up all I wanted to do was become the play-by-play man for the Cubs. I went to Syracuse and they actually offer a play by play class. I took the class and I hated it — so I started writing more in school and decided I wanted to try and make it as a writer. After I graduated, I tried to get writing jobs, but I didn't have the experience because all my internships were on the broadcast side. I started e-mailing everyone I could think of and was introduced to a friend of a friend who worked in Bristol. We stayed in contact and I kept sending him some of my work and some ideas along the way. In the meantime, I freelanced at The Orlando Sentinel and MLB.com, then I worked at Yahoo! on some of their blogs. I stayed in touch with the people at ESPN though — when ESPNChicago launched, they already knew who I was, which was good. I applied for a job and the rest is history.
What's your favorite part of your job?
I have a passion for writing. I enjoy being able to talk to different athletes and putting together a story. I have also enjoyed the radio and television part of this job immensely. I'd say my favorite part of the job is getting paid to cover sports, though. I get paid to watch basketball and talk to players. Even on the worst days, it's still awesome.
What are you hearing on the Luol Deng trade rumor front?
I don't think Luol is going to get dealt for the time being. The Bulls know that he still has an injury, and I don't think he has a lot of value right now because of it. The bigger issue for him is whether or not to have surgery on his wrist — he and Thibs both seem to think he won't need it. I watched him play in serious pain all season, I'd be surprised if he doesn't have it at some point soon.
Is Derrick Rose's rehab on schedule or maybe even ahead of schedule? When do you think he'll be back?
Everybody I've talked to says the rehab is right on track, maybe even ahead of schedule. I still don't think Derrick comes back before February or March though.

"We developed a vibration early in the race, which really set us behind"
HUNTERSVILLE, N.C. (October 14, 2013) - Travis Kvapil and the No. 93 Dr Pepper Toyota Camry team finished 35th at Charlotte (N.C.) on Saturday, October 12. After picking up a vibration mid-way through the race, Kvapil's BK Racing team diagnosed a problem with the right front tire. Unable to regain track position following the issue, Kvapil crossed the finish line in the 35th position.
"We obviously didn't get the finish we were hoping for this weekend with our No. 93 Dr Pepper Toyota Camry," commented Kvapil. "We developed a vibration early in the race, which really set us behind. It initially appeared to be a loose wheel, but once we realized that it was a more serious problem, my Dr Pepper team did a great job checking our car and diagnosing the problem. Unfortunately, by that point we lost several laps and were in a difficult place to regain track position. I can't thank my guys enough for their effort this weekend and for standing by me; I'm looking forward to the next one."

By Will Hodge
Being that Nashville is a town built on the monetization of music, it's remarkably refreshing to watch talented songwriters who are more concerned with community than commerce. A roomful of lucky listeners got to experience that very thing last night at the inaugural kick-off of The Local Show a recurring songwriter showcase series put on by Andrew Peterson and his creative collective known as the Rabbit Room. From the opening reading of a Wendell Berry passage that spoke of broadening the membership of your life, to the partnership with local non-profit Show Hope, to the borrowed capos and guitars on stage, the theme of community ran deep throughout the night.
The first night of The Local Show featured some of Nashville's best kept singer-songwriter secrets: Sandra McCracken, Don Chaffer (Waterdeep), Randall Goodgame, and Eric Peters. What was immediately noticeable about this foursome and what makes The Local Show such an immediate standout from the typical songwriter rounds that take place all over the city was the spirit of creative camaraderie between all of the artists. Not only are they all professionally intertwined through a variety of album recordings and concert appearances, but they are all friends and fans of each other's work as well. This was none more evident than on the constant chorale of ghost harmonies that wandered in and out of every song even the new, unreleased ones. The friendly interactions that took place before, after, and during the songs showed evidence of a group of people that were fluent in each other's lives. During normal songwriter rounds, you can usually spot the feigned interest of the performers as they wait for their spot to come back around. Whether they are thinking about their next song or the errands that they need to run the next day, the vacant gaze and forced banter always give them away. However, this was not the case at The Local Show, where each artist was fully engaged during each other's songs possibly even more so than during their own offerings.
From a musical perspective, you'd be hard-pressed to find a more entertaining and enriching collection of songs packed into a single setting. There were lyrics crafted from the perspective of an abandoned, rusty Schwinn and a pre-suicidal cancer patient, as well as hymns of timeless modernity sung alongside humorously instructional odes on how not to get eaten by bears. The songs were all beautiful, haunting, resonant, accessible, and undeniably life-affirming in equal measure. These were not three-and-a-half minute pop ditties ephemerally meant to lighten a moment, but instead were carefully crafted refrains meant to help soundtrack a lifetime's journey. With meditations like Will we choose the noise of our desire or the hope that makes no sound and simple reminders that the sky must be enjoyed, The Local Show reminded that there are good musical companions to walk with you along the way.
Being a fan of all four artists, it was really nice to hear familiar songs in such a relaxed, intimate setting. The Well Coffeehouse provided an incredible atmosphere for the songwriters to sing their songs and tell their stories, while the lightening storm flashing through the wall of windows provided an arresting backdrop. At a point where technical glitches threatened to sidetrack the mood, Don Chaffer simply unplugged his guitar, rested a foot on the front row of chairs, and sang a gorgeous break-up ballad to a pin-drop quiet crowd. One of the bonus benefits to relaxed settings like this is that new songs usually see their first light of day. On this night, Randall Goodgame debuted a new song called Cellphone Jones, Eric Peters introduced Nobody, and Sandra McCracken played God's Highway, We Will Feast, and Gracious Light from her recently-recorded-but-not-yet-released next album. Don Chaffer even read a stunningly wistful prose poem of his called On the Iron Bar and the Price You Pay, James Dean that had everyone simultaneously laughing and introspecting at the same time. All four artists set the precedent that you never know what might be in store for you at The Local Show but you can rest assured it's going to be good.
The Local Show will be looking to recapture the communal spark every other Tuesday in September, with plans to move to every week in October. The next show will be September 16 and will feature Jill Phillips, Andy Gullahorn, Andrew Osenga, and Jeremy Casella another foursome whose professional/personal DNA mix together in a way that should provide the same uniquely communal atmosphere as the first show.

A personal injury lawyer works with clients who have suffered a physical or emotional injury, usually by accident or mistake. They cover cases such as car accidents, botched surgery, and harassment. Personal injury attorneys know how the insurance claim process works, they know what evidence to gather, and they know how to calculate and present a claim for damages. Many personal injury attorneys take cases on a contingency basis, which means they receive an agreed-upon percentage of the payment you receive, also called the personal injury settlement. If you don't recover any money, they don't get paid their fee. Personal injury lawyers also know how to defend you if someone thinks an injury is your fault.

- Do we have success on running the performance test procedure on the a single test?
- Not really! Kaloyan has tried to run the CSS UI test suite, because it contains only a single test case. The test itself completes correctly, but the step with the graph generator fails again - Java returned: 13. There is no output or any logs to look at. The org.eclipse.test.performance plugin is patched as suggested by Nick.
- The problem could be that the CSS UI test suite does not produce graphs on principle, or because there is no baseline yet. Nick will send guidelines on how to run the graph generator.

- Mark has taken a look at the Eclipse Performance HowTo. He told that the main graph on the performance results page is a result summary where each test suite should contribute. At the moment some test suites do, but other don't. We have agreed that this has to be done, but let us first run the simpler things.

What do you guys think of this conclusion~~~~
Creative Arvana Live! ($60)
Prices based on amazon.com
From all the reviews I've read, and the posts on this thread (thanks everyone btw), I'd consider these the top 3 (for my sound preference) headphones under $100. NVX XTP100 (including all its clones) won the votes here, but the CAL!'s and the JVC's don't fall too far behind.
I can't properly compare all these three, since people won't own all three, (especially the JVC's, being Japan imported). Sadly, not to many of the JVC reviews are available (in english anyway).
I'm going to wait till boxing day/week and compare the value of the three then. I'd like to say I've made up my mind on the NVX XTP100, just not entirely+-
If you are seeking a bass heavy phone then those are good choices for under $80.
Give the Steel Series Siberia a listen, it is $75 and supposed to have good bass as well.

Students may forget their campus cards in their rooms or figure they don't need their wallet for a short walk around the quad. But the one thing they are likely never to be without is a phone.
We are in danger of creating an environment where the "best" (meaning the wealthiest) colleges and universities are perceived to be reserved for those with sufficient status, money and influence. Everyone else is effectively relegated to struggling institutions that cost too much yet that cannot provide sufficient financial aid to meet the needs of their students.
With student debt in the trillions and other economic concerns looming over families, college stores often bear the brunt of public anger over course material costs. But stores are working harder than ever to provide students with affordable options that will help them learn, succeed and get that coveted degree.
For all the advantages of online learning—flexibility, personalization and affordability among them—there can be downsides for some students. Online students may feel isolated and disconnected from their peers and from their college or university—and risk losing the engagement so crucial to student success.
For centuries, colleges and universities have been exempt from paying property taxes, and there's no good reason to change. But that's not stopping people from trying.
From Connecticut to California, critics are questioning property tax exemptions while arguing that colleges are getting a free ride on the backs of taxpayers.
States that have not offered veterans discounted tuition at public universities are now required by law to do so, reflecting the oft-nomadic lifestyle of vets and their need for greater access to higher education.
In-state tuition for this group, which includes 17 states and the District of Columbia, became nationally mandated on July 1, 2015, through a new provision of the GI Bill known as the Veterans Access, Choice and Accountability Act (since dubbed the "Choice Act").
There is an opportunity that many universities are unaware of that can provide immediate tax cash savings. If you have conducted renovations to your buildings in the past, you may be in a position to take advantage of recently released Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") regulations. The following provides a brief background of the opportunity, outlines the characteristics of entities that can benefit, and also provides a roadmap for how to take advantage of this benefit.
It has been said that it takes a village to raise a child. To make a huge change at a university, it takes the entire village, a.k.a. a really good team, to make it happen. Here's our story.
Millersville University of Pennsylvania has 7,500 undergraduates, 1,000 graduate students, seven unions representing faculty and staff, and a $152 million budget.
Hillary Clinton's recently announced $350 billion plan to offer free tuition for public colleges and universities has merit, but does not apply across the board and would require additional appropriations from Congress.
Clinton and all the 2016 presidential candidates should absolutely be focused on this issue, but from a wider perspective. We must look for alternatives to tuitions reaching as high as $250,000 and $1.2 trillion in outstanding student loan debt in the U.S.
Colleges and universities using third-party providers to process students' Title IV payments face changes aimed at giving students more choice in receiving financial aid dollars. A new federal proposal could especially affect institutions that issue tuition refunds directly to students' debit cards.
If it's finalized as is by Nov. 1, The Department of Education proposed rule on campus debit cards and Title IV payments will have a major impact on third-party service providers.
Some of the regulations in the rule include restrictions on fees and limitations on access to student information. It would also require schools to issue paper checks as an option, even if they've already gone paperless.
Outside the circle of higher ed facilities managers, it's the shiny new campus buildings that get all the glory. Yet what facilities insiders know all too well is that existing buildings are in dire need of attention.
A family's willingness to pay for a college education relies heavily on an institution's ability to articulate return on investment. Discounting tuition through scholarships and other financial aid is the most common approach to increasing a college's perceived value, as these strategies reduce the net cost to the family.
Fossil fuel and private prison divestment may make the biggest headlines when it comes to how colleges invest endowment funds—but it's not actually that common a practice. A growing number of colleges and universities now seek bigger impacts—and substantial financial returns—with a strategy known as "ESG."
Parents and students expect RAs to solve roommate problems and ensure dorms are conducive to study and sleep. But with an amplified national discourse on sexual assault, gun violence and mental illness, today's resident assistants are on the front lines of a whole host of issues related to safety and overall wellness.

Guanxi Management in Chinese Entrepreneurs: a Network Approach
This working paper analyzes the role played by two dimensions of entrepreneurs' private social capital in the performance of an entrepreneurial venture: local size and degree of preferential linking. To fulfill this objective, we build a bi-dimensional measure of social capital based on network models and a methodology to estimate this measure for any group of entrepreneurs. Based on a survey of service entrepreneurs who launched their business in the city of Shanghai, we show that social capital or guanxi is relevant for business success. Moreover, we show that roles played by each dimension are quite different. A large local network, i.e. a large set of agents able to advise or support the entrepreneur, increases the chances of survival of the new venture but has no impact to make it go beyond a self-employment business. To reach this level, entrepreneurs need to generate a high degree of preferential attachment; in other words, they need to generate a social network that allows them to get advice and support from those agents placed in critical positions within Shanghai's global socio-economic network. This finding has relevant political and managerial implications and generates new questions to be answered in future research.
