Snake vines are moving
Almost as fast as a man,
Slopping oils across
Each other, and the trees on
Which they grow and ambulate.
Vines polluting
Flowers that grow on the bark
Of the larger trees,
Strangling plants and animals
That come within their reach.
Spongy tendrils (thick
as spaghetti) writhe with life
Faster and faster,
More vibrant than before
Reaching out for human prey.
Moist vegetation
Soft and clinging; whispering
Like sibilant snakes,
Thousands of tiny tendrils
Writhing and curling like worms.
Pulpy, disgusting
Strands, penetrate body holes
Entering the mouth,
Then flowing out once more through
Eye and nasal cavities.

Donald Glover, widely known as Troy Barnes from NBC's Community, has slowly but surely segued from "fade in" to "microphone check" thanks to his hip-hop persona, Childish Gambino. Glover sits down with Reebok to talk about the classic hip-hop albums in his book, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill and Common's Be, and what it was like to see that material performed live at Rock the Bells.

A contact at Fox Studios in Sydney today confirmed for me that "I Robot" will indeed be filming in Canada, not Australia.
He says, "(It's) due to lack of availability at fox studios in sydney (and cast preference…. but my understanding is not because of Will Smith. he spent a lot of time in sydney when his wife was working on the matrix sequels)." But once the project hits "post-production" status, Alex Proyas will move it back to home and fine tune it in Sydney, much the same as Miller will do with "Mad Max".

Engagement Labs has raised $4.3 million.
The funding will be used as "general working capital," according to the Canadian company, which offers real-time social media analytics for organizations.
The Toronto-based startup also announced a partnership with Netvibes. Engagement's "evalue" product is now available to Netvibes' clients through a data bundle created specifically for competitive analysis. According to Engagement it will provide real-time conversation monitoring, measure social media performance and help brands benchmark their presence on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube.
"In a click and without leaving their custom dashboard, Netvibes' corporate users now have the possibility to efficiently measure the ROI of their social media marketing campaigns by simply integrating our competitive analysis data bundle – powered by evalue analytics," said Paul Allard, CEO of Engagement Labs. "Using this data bundle will measure engagement, impact and reach to provide clients with the most powerful social media benchmarking tool, extremely flexible and intelligent dashboard."
"The combination of Netvibes' customized dashboards and reporting tools with the intelligent data on demand capabilities offered through evalue analytics will provide our clients with a broader set of metrics to evaluate their brand's social performance, boost engagement and increase sales," added Netvibes' CEO, Freddy Mini. "With this new addition to our dashboard, users will be able to listen even more effectively, learn more, and react even faster, using real-time information to optimize all their social interactions."
While the concept of social media monitoring and measurement is familiar to many brand managers and social media teams, effective implementation of an optimized social engagement strategy is another story, says Engagement Labs.

The Baddest GTi on The Planet!
The Volkswagen R GTi premiered at the 2006 SEMA Show, but it still stands as the baddest example of the MKV GTi around. Lightened, widened, lowered, stiffened, and with 360 hp courtesy of APR Tuning, this sport econo car is the essence of hot hatch; doing 0-60 in 5.5 seconds. But the craziest part of this ride, might be its 2+2 race seating, complete with a custom harness system.

never say your a failure
no matter how hopeless and worthless you may feel
during them situations you want something so bad
but you know there is nothing at all you can do to
get it due to the obstacles in the way
have you ever thought people may think that because
you are better than them so they put others down
to make themeselves look good
to help them climb the social status
never call yourself a failure for all your true friends know
that without you in their lives they would truelly be ruined
who would they talk to in times of pain, or them times
we need a shoulder to cry on your always there
you care so much from your head and from your heart
and would do anything to help somebody even if it
means you sacrificing something yourself
you help your friends go round and their life
knowing you are always there and always supports your friend
never ever say you are a failure for if you are then i
am a failure too

I'm looking into that. As is, timeoutsAlloc also has the same bug, so v2 of the patch is coming up, after I (re-)audit the entire file for all uses of eventLoop to ensure that reads and modifications are only done inside locks, and that modifications don't fall foul of integer wraparound. I'm also updating the commit message. The problem cannot be triggered until you hit either 31 timeouts or 31 handles (which is why I never saw it in my earlier testing, since running 1 or 2, or even 10, VMs does not create that many handles), because our allocation pattern was always requesting growth by 10 (VIR_RESIZE_N uses MAX(requested, 50%) for it's growth delta), for 10, 20, 30, 45. And since freeing always happened by 10, you didn't get integer overflow until you had hit the allocation of 45 or higher (which requires growing past 30). Very nasty bug indeed. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org

by Randall S. Hansen, Ph.D.
There will come a point in your tenure with an employer when you realize that you deserve a raise. As with most salary negotiations, asking for a raise is often uncomfortable at the very least and intimidating at the very most. But getting the raise you deserve should not be such an anxiety-creating event, especially if you follow the strategies outlined in this article. In fact, to better help all workers, this article describes both short-term and long-term tips to ensuring that raise negotiations are professional — and minimally stressful.
Before we get to the tips, one element is critical to your success: timing. Timing refers to the company's policies and procedures in terms of the amount of time between reviews and raises — and when it's "acceptable" to ask for a raise. And timing refers to the company's current financial situation as well as the general economic climate. And, finally, timing refers to where you are in terms of your work and major projects. Obviously, it makes sense to ask for a raise:
- within the normal parameters of company policy;
- when the company is in sound financial standing, and
- when you have just had a major success.
One other thing to remember. Generally speaking, if you are doing your job well, then your boss expects you to ask for a raise — and ideally is prepared to offer you one. However, doing a good job is no longer enough in many organizations. The strategies in this article are designed to prepare you better, reduce your anxiety, and help you achieve your raise and salary goals.
Short-Term Strategies for Getting that Raise
The following strategies are things you can do now if you have an upcoming review and/or want a raise sooner rather than later.
1. Develop a plan. The most important thing you can do is develop a plan for your raise meeting. Schedule an appointment rather than just walking in and asking for a raise. Have a strategy — even develop a script you want to follow.
2. Know what you're worth. Examine all aspects of your job and then do a little research to determine your value – both inside and outside the company. Talk to someone in the human resources department and see if you can get pay scales for jobs that are similar to yours. Use a salary calculator or other salary sources and determine the salary range in your geographic area. See our Salary Resources section.
3. Be realistic. Even if you are a superstar, and even if you were hired at the very lowest starting salary, most employers will not give you a raise that pushes you to the top of the salary range in one shot. (And they'll never pay you a salary outside the range.) Most employers look at raises in terms of percentage increases.
4. Focus on what you deserve rather than what you need. Your employer doesn't care if you can't make ends meet because you just bought a new house or a new car — that's a personal responsibility issue. Focus on why you deserve a raise — how you've added value to the department and the organization — rather than any personal needs for a raise.
5. Track contributions and accomplishments. Think of the raise meeting as a job interview. To get the raise you deserve, you need to demonstrate all the positive contributions you have made to the organization – not only for your boss (who should know but doesn't always), but also for whoever is the final decision-maker in deciding the size of your raise. Bring support material — such as a spreadsheet with your accomplishments — with you to the meeting. Consider using something like this accomplishments worksheet.
6. Demonstrate commitment to department and organization. Show how you have taken on new projects and assignments, acquired new skills, furthered your education or training, and added new certifications or degrees. Demonstrate how you add value to the department and the organization.
7. Be flexible and open to other options. Never go into a raise meeting with an ultimatum — unless you're prepared to deal with the consequences — and be prepared to compromise about the size of the raise. And if money is tight, consider other options/perks that you may able to negotiate for in the short-term to compensate for the lack of the raise. See sidebar (above) for some ideas. See also, Clever Ways to Get a Raise: Perks you Might Not Have Thought About.
8. Focus on the future. While you want to focus on your many accomplishments and contributions to date, you also want to show how you plan to continue contributing to helping your boss, your department, and your organization.
9. Understand the employer's position. There are many other factors besides worth that go into raises, so be sure you understand department and company politics. It's also a good idea to have an understanding of how your boss feels about raises and your standing within the department.
10. Have a strategy, but let boss take the lead. Just as with salary negotiations, you never want to state an actual amount that you want. Instead, let your boss make the first raise offer. Once an offer has been made, take a moment to consider it before you react to it. Review all negotiation strategies in our Salary and Job Offer Negotiation Tutorial.
11. Write a follow-up memo after the meeting. Once the meeting is over, write a follow-up memo summarizing the meeting, demonstrating your value, and highlighting your accomplishments — and send the memo to your boss as documentation. If you get tongue-tied in these types of meetings, you might want to prepare the memo before the meeting and use it as a basis of negotiation in the meeting.
Long-Term Strategies for Getting that Raise
So, if you are not in a position currently to get the raise you want, what are some things you can do to prepare for a raise meeting down the road? The following strategies are things you can start doing now to build your negotiating power for that future raise.
1. Set the stage for a future review. If your boss tells you it's not a good time for a raise meeting or if you don't get everything you wanted in your last meeting, now is the time to set the stage for a future meeting. Ask your boss for suggestions on how you can improve and how you can make more contributions to the department and company so that you can get to where you want to be.
2. Raise your profile within the department/organization. We're raised as children to work hard and be modest, but you cannot assume that anyone outside yourself really knows all that you do for the organization. Begin building your brand — your reputation — within and beyond your department.
3. Find a mentor in the senior management of the company. Having a person higher up in the organization to mentor you is valuable for a number of reasons, but it's certainly helpful in terms of getting the raise you desire. To find a mentor, identify someone higher in the organization you admire, and test the waters by asking advice. If there seems to be rapport, begin to slowly build a mutual relationship.
4. Do a more thorough job of tracking accomplishments/achievements. If you are having trouble remembering all your accomplishments and contributions, now is the time to begin keeping a diary of all your successes. Keeping such good track will not only help you for your next raise meeting, but will have you better prepared for the job-search if the need or interest arises. Read our article, For Job-Hunting Success: Track and Leverage Your Accomplishments.
Final Thoughts on Getting a Raise
In many situations, getting the raise you deserve will indeed take a lot of planning and strategy on your part. From reading this article, you should now see that raise meetings often combine elements of job interviewing (tracking contributions and accomplishments) and salary/job offer negotiation. Take the time to be prepared — and you'll have better success than if you don't. For a quick review of the strategies discussed in this article, read our Do's and Don'ts of Requesting a Raise. Finally, be sure and avail yourself of all the wonderful tools we have in the Salary Negotiation Resources section of Quintessential Careers.
- Design your own incentive program. One-time bonuses are easier on companies, so consider developing a system for your boss where you challenge and push yourself with the commitment from the company to reward you for achieving various ambitious goals.
- Consider non-cash perks, such as a compressed work week, flextime, telecommuting days, a reserved parking space, better workspace, or more vacation time.
- Ask for career development perks, such as new work assignments, cross training, more education benefits, more professional development or conference travel money.
- Request a change in career track or job title to better position yourself for promotions and raises in the future.

When building mozilla-central with GCC 4.6, I get:
nsTextFormatter.cpp: In function 'int dosprintf(SprintfState*, const PRUnichar*, __va_list_tag*)':
nsTextFormatter.cpp:855:22: warning: variable 'fmt0' set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable]
nsTextFormatter.cpp:868:22: warning: variable 'dolPt' set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable]
These variables' last usages were removed in a cleanup patch in 2001, for bug 102690...
...but the variables themselves were left in. Looks like we can just get rid of them, since they aren't used for anything.
Created attachment 655987 [details] [diff] [review]
patch: removed the variables fmt0, dolpt
Comment on attachment 655987 [details] [diff] [review]
patch: removed the variables fmt0, dolpt
Thanks for the patch -- this looks great!
Since this is in /xpcom, this technically needs review from an XPCOM reviewer.
According to https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/filelog/118cc431d56f/xpcom/glue/nsTextFormatter.cpp , bsmedberg is the only one who's reviewed changes to this file for a while, so I'm tagging him for a quick thumbs-up.
Thanks for the patch! In the future, it'd be great if you could prepare the patch as described at https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Creating_a_patch_that_can_be_checked_in , that would make it easier for people to check your patch in.

Plane Crash Kills Philadelphia Inquirer Co-Owner KatzJodi Xu and Alan Levin
Lewis Katz, co-owner of the Philadelphia Inquirer, was killed along with six other people in a private plane crash less than a week after winning control of the Pulitzer Prize-winning newspaper.
The Gulfstream IV jet crashed about 9:40 p.m. yesterday while attempting to take off from Hanscom Field in Bedford, Massachusetts, for Atlantic City, New Jersey. Katz's son, Drew Katz, confirmed the death in a statement from the family.
Katz, 72, parlayed parking-lot and billboard businesses into a New York-region sports and media empire, including shares in the Brooklyn Nets, New York Yankees and television's YES Network. He and H.F. "Gerry" Lenfest last week won control of the Inquirer and its sister publication at a court-ordered auction. The transaction will proceed with Drew Katz joining the new company's board, Lenfest said.
"We all deeply mourn the loss of my true friend and fellow investor," Lenfest said. "It is a severe loss."
Katz was the former owner of the New Jersey Devils hockey team and the Nets basketball team, which was then known as the New Jersey Nets. He was a former member of the National Basketball Association's board of governors.
The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the crash.
Goodwin Event
Katz had attended an event earlier Saturday at the Concord home of Richard Goodwin and historian Doris Kearns Goodwin. More than 200 people had gathered at celebration for the Concord River Institute, a school founded by their son, Michael.
"The death of Lewis and his colleagues is a crushing and devastating loss," said Michael Goodwin, who had accompanied Katz to dinner after the event.
The plane carried four passengers, two pilots and a cabin attendant, according to the NTSB. Identities of the others on board weren't immediately released. The Associated Press reported that James P. Leeds Sr., a commissioner for the borough of Longport, New Jersey, said his 74-year-old wife, Anne, died in the crash.
Former Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell told the Associated Press that Katz had invited him on the flight.
The plane went off the end of Runway 11, heading toward the east, according to preliminary information released in an e-mailed statement by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration. The IV model was built by General Dynamics Corp.'s Gulfstream Aerospace Corp. of Savannah, Georgia, until production ended in 2002, according to the company's website.
Off Runway
The plane carrying Katz was owned by SK Travel LLC of Raleigh, North Carolina, according to the Federal Aviation Administration. It was built in 2000, according to the FAA's aircraft registration website.
The twin-engine corporate jet never lifted off the ground during its attempted takeoff, a witness told investigators, according to Luke Schiada, a senior air safety investigator with the NTSB. Most of the wreckage was consumed by fire, he said at an afternoon briefing.
The plane went off the paved surface, skidded about 2,000 feet (600 meters) through a field and ripped through a chainlink fence before coming to rest in a gully filled with water, Schiada said. Some parts of the aircraft, including pieces of the landing gear, broke loose as the plane went through the field and the plane struck navigation equipment.
Investigators are searching the wreckage for two crash-proof black box recorders, one that captured sounds in the cockpit and another that stored data on the plane's path, engines and pilot actions, Schiada said.
Inquirer Dispute
Katz and Lenfest had won control of the Inquirer, its Daily News sister paper, and Philly.com through a court-ordered auction valued the newspaper company at $88 million.
The auction ended months of dispute between Katz and George Norcross, a New Jersey insurance executive who led an opposing majority group, over the direction of the Inquirer. Katz, Lenfest and Norcross led a group that purchased the Inquirer in 2012 for $55 million.
The owners didn't see eye to eye on the dismissal of editor-in-chief Bill Marimow as well as potential firings of a number of top editors at the Inquirer.
Katz, in his lawsuit, said publisher Bob Hall, who he believed to have acted on behalf of Norcross, had no right to fire Marimow as the owners agreed to stay away from the editorial decisions. Marimow was later reinstated.
'Exceptional' Man
"Lewis Katz was an exceptional man, whose presence enriched the lives of everyone he came in contact with," Marimow said in a story for the newspaper.
The Inquirer, founded in 1829, has won at least 18 Pulitzer Prizes. The Inquirer and the Daily News had a common owner starting in 1969, when they were bought by Knight Newspapers Inc., a chain that no longer exists.
"I am shocked and deeply saddened to hear this terrible news," said Michael Nutter, mayor of Philadelphia in a statement today. "I just talked to Lewis on Wednesday morning to congratulate him and Gerry Lenfest on their winning bid for the newspapers."
Katz was chief executive officer of Kinney System Holding Corp., the largest operator of parking lots in the New York area, from 1990 until its sale in 1998. He also was former chairman of Interstate Outdoor Advertising Co., the Cherry Hill, New Jersey-based billboard company that his son, Drew, took over in 1999. Drew Katz is Interstate's CEO.
The long-time philanthropist supported education and medical organizations in his hometown of Camden, New Jersey, as well as in Philadelphia. Last month, Temple University announced it would name its medical school after Katz, who had donated $25 million. Penn State University also named a building in his honor in 2009.
"This is an incalculable loss for Temple, for Philadelphia and for all those who knew and cherished their relationship with Lewis Katz," Neil D. Theobald, Temple's president, said in a statement.

Chapter 5 : Hole in his Heart
|Rating: 12+
|Chapter Reviews: 2
Background: Font color:
When Harry awoke from his dreamless sleep, the first thing he did was roll over and squint at the clock. He couldn't read the numbers even if he tried. He rolled over again, grabbed his glasses and then looked at the clock 10:49 AM! He couldn't believe he had slept that long. He was starting to sit up in bed when he heard someone at the door. It was Ron checking on him.
"Hey it's about time you lazy bum!" called Ron. He turned around and motioned for someone to come in. In came Hermione.
"Morning Harry," she replied.
"Morning," yawned Harry.
"How did you sleep?" Hermione asked.
"That's good. Mate, you haven't had a perfects night sleep since Cedric, you deserved it. In fact, you and Lupin both. Mum had to give him one, much to his dismay," replied Ron.
"Are you hungry? Mrs. Weasley saved some breakfast. We wanted to wake you up, but she told us not to. She thinks like us, you could have done with a good-nights sleep," responded Hermione.
"Yeah, I'm starving."
"Here I'll get it," volunteered Ron.
Hermione sat at the edge of Harry's bed, near his feet. She sat Indian style, smiled, then asked the dreaded question, "How are you feeling?"
He wanted to say he was fine and be done with it, but Hermione had known him to long to know that if he said that he was fine, she'd keep on instigating him. So, for once, he answered truthfully.
"I've been better."
"Well, at least you're being honest," replied Hermione.
Harry laughed.
Ron came in a few minutes later with a tray that was presumably Harry's breakfast. The tray included eggs, bacon, sausage, pancakes, toast, waffles, and pumpkin juice. Harry's eyes widened at the sight of all the food. Hermione's laugh rang throughout the room.
"I'm supposed to eat ALL of that!?"
"I'm guessing so mate, but never fear, Ron and Hermione are here, we'll help you chow this chow down."
Harry laughed.
After eating some eggs, bacon, sausage, pancakes, and eventually forcing down some waffles, and slurping the juice, Harry felt like if he ate anything else he'd be sick all over the place. Hermione had only eaten a bit of bacon, but she claimed she was full from breakfast. That didn't stop Ron though, he ate his breakfast, plus at least half of Harry's and still gazed at the clock waiting for lunch to be served.
"Hungry Ron?" questioned Hermione.
"Yeah. Why do you ask?"
"Well, considering the fact that you not only ate your own breakfast a few hours ago and now you've eaten at least half of Harry's breakfast, and your looking at the clock and thinking if Remus has finished eating yet, I think you're hungry," replied Hermione in a matter of fact tone.
Harry laughed at Hermione's little speech.
"Hermione, could you help me with lunch?" called Molly Weasley's motherly voice.
"Coming!" Hermione called and climbed off the bed.
"Oh thank you dear, did Harry eat? Remus simply picked at his food."
"Well, Harry ate a bit, I ate a strip or two of bacon and Ron ate about half of his food and Harry ate the other half and left a piece of toast, half an egg, and three strips of bacon untouched," reported Hermione.
"At least he ate a little bit. Are you sure that he wasn't going to eat that food, he could have been saving it."
"He looked like he would be sick everywhere if he ate anything else."
"He does look awfully thin, but he always gets thin during the holidays. I'm just afraid he'll make himself sick or something. I think it's just because of what happened last night, give him a few weeks and he'll be better."
"Here take these upstairs I know that a certain 16 year old son of mine is very hungry," joked Mrs. Weasley.
"Too true."
For the rest of the day the trio just hung out. They pretended like yesterday never happen and that seemed to help Harry, he was so much happier. They knew it would still hurt, and there would always be a hole in his heart, but right now, that hole was starting to close.
A/N- TA-DA!!!! It's the end…I'm so sad!!!!

She is very caring and makes you feel safe which is huge when dealing with legal matters, I feel honored to have had her represent me as well as my family.
Posted by Bob
I have worked with Debbie Champion and her associates of RSS&C for the past 6+ years, in myriad of varying situations for the Company I work, for which I am the Corporate Credit Manager. Issues ranged from simple advise on how to proceed in Construction Business related matters to filing of liens, to filing suit, to pursuing assets of those we received judgments against,to proceeding against Bond Company's, to filing suit against customers for Breach of Contract, to Debbie's conducting classes for our corporate officers.
I feel what separates Debbie and her staff apart from others is their willingness to listen, take our perspective and once a course is agreed upon to pursue it with full vigor and the full extent of the law - all the time keeping me informed every step of the way and making every decision to go to the next level as a team.
Positive results, full cooperation and the unabashed truth are what I have always received from Debbie.
Ms. Debbie Champion and her associates are centered on my concerns and focus on a comprehensive remedy to my Company's issues and concerns. My recommendation could not come any higher.

"Religious apologists often drag out lists of eminent scientists who they claim were believers in 'god'"
I make no apologies for religion .
Do you believe God and religion are one and the same? If so you have been misled. Religion is at best a human attempt to understand this God thing or All That Is. And the numerous versions, with factions, show how confusing the whole affair has become. If religionists themselves are calling each version The Truth it is not surprising that many non religionists show reluctance to think that God exists. The rejection of religion is not necessarily a rejection of God.
I suspect many are led to false interpretation of God from the Sistine chapel depiction, that of an anthropomorphic God, which I believe is what is said not to exist. I could not agree more. GOD IS AN IDEA. The power and scope of an idea is not examined fully. For that matter each one of us is an idea held at the core of being.
Intellectual pursuits of The Question are futile, as futile as say killing life to study life. The only way any one can come to an understanding of the greater reality, that which exists beyond the physical senses, is to experience. Each one of us is heir to the most wondrous laboratory in the world, the psyche. There are exercises that lead to an understanding of what supports the "tip of the iceberg", that unseen portion which the captain of the Titanic overlooked to his detriment!
A great scientist is prepared to be wrong and realises the subjectivity of objectivity. Are you prepared to experience for yourself? I notice you have made no reference to that invitation whilst focussing on the errors. Do you believe that people pre science were less wise and intelligent than those now?
Do not let religion befuddle you into thinking that it represent God.

OGB type AB. Lois Rich by James Whitely,
'90. I have a load of photos this
year and not a one is very good. This,
though slightly blurred, gives the
best effect of how it actually looks here.
There are a number of ABs in the
color range, but this one seems quite distinctive
to me. It somehow just
doesn't have the same look as the rest. The
signal area is sort of a henna
red, but it can be darker to a more faded
color. I have lots of seedlings
on the premises using the pollen. It's white
over yellow is very strong so
far and all I've seen are offspring via several
TBs. There is a pot full of
seedlings with ZERZURA as the other parent.
I'd expect it to be strong on
that cross. It's been a good grower and
willing bloomer for me for several

Thanks for the idea. The problem was the the device was connected to USB 3.0 port (for Dr.Dac2 it doesnt matter) but for X-Sabre made sense.
So now it works properly. No interruption, no clocking, and it is switching modes (44.1, 48, x2, x4.. etc) depends on quality of HD video and FLAC record automatically.
Put my Dr.Dac2 on the shelf and begun to choose headfone amp with XLК inputs. Believe that would be Quattro from Matrix.
wait, does this mean the x-sabre is not compatible with usb3 ports? i currently have only usb2 ports from my pc but new motherboards have only usb3 ports, and new macs only come with usb3. does the x-sabre not work with those?
