Sebastian Vettel has heard boos from the crowd after winning the last three races but Sunday's Korean Grand Prix should put a stop to that.
Fed up Formula One fans hoping to see a different driver standing on the top step of the podium may be disappointed but they are more likely to be shouting at their television sets than making a noise in Mokpo.
The Yeongam circuit, reached after a three hour journey south from Seoul on the country's fastest train, is near a remote port more on the map for shipbuilding than tourism or motorsport.
"The atmosphere at the track isn't great because there aren't many spectators, but the track's got some challenging sections and some good corners," commented Vettel's Red Bull team mate Mark Webber.
The Australian started on pole position last year but it is Vettel who has won the race for the past two seasons and is favourite for the hat-trick, even if that does not sit well with Ferrari fans and others yearning for a closer battle.
The champion's fourth successive title looks a foregone conclusion and could be won by the end of the month but until then the 26-year-old is putting into practice the old German saying that all good things come in threes.
Only Vettel and Ferrari's Fernando Alonso, the man who is now his closest rival in the championship even if there is a 60 point gap with six races remaining, have ever won the Korean race since it first appeared on the calendar in 2010.

Commercial golf course netting
In a few short words, a the game barrier netting is one area that you install round the golf course to protect the nearby property from damage that can be caused by a stray ball. There are several types of golf course barrier netting around, and in this short article, we're going to walk you through each one.
There's engineered to be made of tarred nylon, that's known to last the longest among the different types of netting. Plus there is polyester netting, that is easy to maintain and has a very low stretch. There's also something called 3/4" netting that is mostly used for golf impact netting and golf cages. We aren't going to tell you which type of netting to use for your golfing facility, however, we intend to tell you to consult with companies which specialize in sports netting.
Once you need to install, prepare your hardware materials. These include aircraft cable, turnbuckle, cable clamp, steel snap hook, steel poles, ball bungee, swaging tool with cutter, and aluminum snap hook. It is simple to buy these items from on-line stores that specialize in barrier netting for courses and other sports. There are several such companies out there and so finding one mustn't be a problem.
However, not all brands of barrier netting are manufactured alike. While they offer pretty much the same thing, they do have differences in their detail, like overall excellence of the netting, and simplicity of use.
Before buying anything, be sure to check out what other people are saying about a particular brand. Are they happy with it? May be the netting still around. High-quality brands most often have average star ratings for at least four stars and get positive customer comments.

Yeah pretty simple mate.
Just register an account, then you will have to scan and email them a proof of ID and Address. Takes about a day for them to verify and voila you're all good to go.
Yes they only started doing that recently.
They need it in order to confirm that you are really you and not someone else living at your address.
All details are on your Tenso MyPage and here:

Loving the shameless self promotion Andreas. I didn't even notice until you said. No one had any experience with hd650 and the BH? (Or other 150ohm or higher phones, so I know if it really drives them enough).
yblad, I also had a chance to test it with Hd 650 and BH2 drives it just fine.
Did someone say the Senn HD439s have good syn with the C&C? Or would I be better off going with the S500s?
Local store has a sale on them, still expensive by your standards but not bad by mine! :P
EDIT: Nevermind, just went with the S500s. Even if I get hit with import tax, it'll be cheaper than the 439s. Now.. the wait begins D:
Ordered my bh2 today also. Already have cks1000 (doesnt need amp but who cares) and my eph-100 should arrive around same time. Keepin eye on trader thread for carbo basso and philipps fidelio s2. Found my clip+ and rockboxed it, and have been playin with a ck4 i picked up cheep due to small screen defect. Sellin my cowon j3, and hopefully save up for another pair of sm64 and eventually asg2 (pretty sure this will be my dream iem)

- Blesinde (Allemanie) d'Alemanie's Profile
- Family Tree & Genealogy Tools
Categories: Unsourced Profiles | European Aristocrats Unsourced Profiles.
Disputed Identity
Gregory of Tours, doesn't say much about the specifics of Chlodio's family. But he did mention that, "certain authorities assert that king Merovech, whose son was Childeric, was of the family of Chlogio."
It's, the Chronicle of Fredegar (c. 660s), that came up with the tall tale about Chlodio's alleged wife, getting impregnated by a creature from the sea, and birthing Merovech. This was apparently done to create a fabricated Christian (divine) link, and deny the paganism ... which Gregory of Tours had already pointed out. [1]
Aside from this... there doesn't seem to be much evidence for a known spouse or children.
- Gregory of Tours:
- "Beyond the Loire the Goths were in control; the Burgundians also, who belonged to the sect of the Arians, dwelt across the Rhone in the district which is adjacent to the city of Lyons. And Chlogio sent spies to the city of Cambrai, and they went everywhere, and he himself followed and overcame the Romans and seized the city, in which he dwelt for a short time, and he seized the land as far as the river Somme. Certain authorities assert that king Merovech, whose son was Childeric, was of the family of Chlogio."[2]

There's a time and place for shaking things up in the NBA, and there's another for finding a rhythm with familiar parts and pieces. When free agency opened for official signings on Wednesday, most the attention went to the shiny new additions around the league, from Steve Nash in Los Angeles to Omer Asik in Houston. Creating — or holding together — a contender isn't just about the add-ons, though; it's about keeping the best players from before who already have experience.
Without ado, the top 5 most important re-signings in NBA free agency of 2012.
*** *** ***
The Spurs can use his career 42 percent three-point shooting for all of the next three years he re-signed for. The reported $12-million deal is a steal for a three-point shooter who found his footing after spending time in the Developmental League to appear in all 66 games last season and shoot 43 percent from deep. That was the fifth-best in the NBA last season of any player 6-6 or taller who shot more than a handful of threes, but it's not a slam on his athleticism, either, to peg him as a dangerous three threat. Though he has a harder time playing his way out of slumps because of the established star system in San Antonio, and thus fewer touches, he is the Spurs' best inside-outside threat next to Manu Ginobili with his ability to drive.
The Clippers were mentally fragile without Billups in the lineup after his Achilles injury in February. That's a fairly amazing testament to his professionalism and veteran feel for not only the game but a locker room — especially when you consider he didn't want to be in L.A. in the first place last December. The Clippers need a player who can command his respect at point guard — even though he should see limited minutes early in the season because of his rehabilitation — not named Chris Paul. Both he and Paul are playing with one-year deals, but while CP3's contract will be the talk of the NBA next season, Billups will be the steadying force amid the chatter.
That list we mentioned of the best three-point shooters 6-6 or taller includes Ilyasova as the second-best at nearly 46 percent. The five-year deal to keep him means a pairing of John Henson with the more polished offensively Ilyasova, the current leader of a patchwork frontcourt. He earned Eastern Conference player of the week honors this season and is the only option to dump the ball down to when Monta Ellis isn't shooting for Milwaukee. The player I think Vladimir Radmanovic was supposed to be saw his rebounds, points, field-goal percentage and three-point percentage go up substantially in his fourth season. His dependability and relative youth (25) make him a cornerstone for Milwaukee.

A KOMBI driver lost his testicl*s during a dispute over US$1 bus fare and was in critical condition in hospital, the court heard on Tuesday.
Lovejoy Mutasa was allegedly assaulted by two lovebirds Anna Chipfiko (26) and her boyfriend (name not given) after he ordered them to disembark from the commuter omnibus he was driving because they had refused to pay the US$1 per head bus fare.
Prosecutor Miss Sharon Mashavira alleges that Chipfiko grabbed Mutasa's private parts and pulled them off with her mouth.
Chipfiko was charged with attempted murder when she appeared before magistrate Mr Milton Serima. Her boyfriend is on the run.
Miss Mashavira told the court that Mutasa was in a critical condition.
"Your worship we cannot set a trial date for this matter because the complainant is hospitalised and is in a critical condition. We are waiting for the medical affidavit that ascertains the extent of the injuries he sustained for the commencement of trial," she said.
The magistrate advised Chipfiko to seek bail at the High Court and remanded her in custody to September 23. The State alleged that on September 7 around 11am, Chipfiko and her boyfriend boarded a commuter omnibus at Mupedzanhamo Flea Market in Mbare.
On reaching Rufaro Stadium, the conductor demanded bus fare but the pair refused to pay. Mutasa ordered them to disembark but Chipfiko and her boyfriend turned violent. They allegedly assaulted the conductor who fled the scene.
They then assaulted Mutasa with Chipfiko biting his testicles and pulling them off. Mutasa fell unconscious. Chipfiko was apprehended by other passengers while her boyfriend fled.

Comment Re:Pointless (Score 1) 199
A lot of secondary railroads all over Europe are not electrified, and that's where these diesel-powered Lint-trains show up. So that's the target market for these trains, not the main railroads.
And as said by others, there's a big problem with the fluctuations in energy output from wind and solar, especially in Germany. Instead of just throwing the energy away (like they do now), they could just as well use it to create hydrogen, even if it only has 50% efficiency.
That's why they're targeting the German market with this train.

Makes 1 cup
If I could use only one marinade for the rest of my life, it would be this one. Redolent with garlic, piquant with fresh lemon juice, and fragrant with extra virgin olive oil, it instantly transports you to the Mediterranean. I can't think of a single food that doesn't taste better bathed in it. You can use it as both a marinade and a basting sauce. If marinating poultry, meat, or seafood, simply set a portion aside for basting.
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon hot pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt (kosher or sea), or to taste
4 strips of lemon zest
3 gloves garlic, crushed with the side of a cleaver or minced
1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh basil, cilantro,
dill, oregano or a mix of all four
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
Combine the lemon juice, hot pepper flakes, cracked pepper, and salt in a nonreactive (glass, ceramic, or stainless steel) bowl and whisk until the salt crystals are dissolved. Add the lemon zest, garlic, parsley, and basil. Stir or whisk in the olive oil. The virtue of this marinade is its freshness; use it within 1 to 2 hours of making. Stir again before using.

The benefits to our guests are numerous - this is a really spacious, light and airy home and it's close proximity to the village and also the major sightseeing aspects of the Cape is of great benefit. It is a good jumping off point for trips to Table Mountain and the V&A Waterfront via spectacular Camps Bay and Clifton, to the winelands in the other direction, and again over the world famous Chapman's Peak round to Cape Point and Simonstown on the Indian Ocean side of the Peninsula.
This is a great house in a fantastic location, just 10 minutes walk from the sea front and accessible to Cape Town within 20 minutes. The house itself is very spaciaous and well equipped with wonderful views over the mountains from the balcony and a perfect place to sit out in the evenings. We arrived to fresh flowers and wine courtesy of Ann, and she was always on hand to source babysitters, drivers and even the eashing machine repair man! We would certainly recommend this house.
We arrived in the middle of the night and Feyona was waiting for us and showed uw the house. There was a bottle of wine and nice flowers ofcourse the protea of South Africa. We had a very good time in Harmony House. Close to the shops and the beach and also walking distance form the very good fish restaurant "Mariners Warf".
The house was clean and modern furnished. Also the contact with Graham and Esme was very good and adequad.
We had a very pleasent stay and we will recommend it to every one who would like to stay in Houtbay.
After a perfect contact to the owner of the house at the internet, we met a very nice and helpful Fiona at Harmony House in Hout Bay in january 2010. We had a very pleasant time at the house. It was clean and the location was perfect with the supermarket 5 minutes away and a very nice seafood restaurant placed on the beach. We met our daughter, who is working as a volunteer in the township of Lavender Hill. Together with her, we had a beautiful trip to Simons Town, Boulders Beach, Cape Point, Cape of Good Hope and at last driving back to Hout Bay along Chapman's Peak. Table Mountain was magnificent. Waterfront in Cape Town is worth visiting. Another wonderful experience was the Fairy Glen Safari.
The alarm at Harmony House gave a little problem, but the staff of ADT were very helpful and understanding.
Thank you for at very wonderful time in Harmony House and surroundings.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Harmony House. A lovely welcome from Fiona, with flowers and a bottle of wine. She was most helpful throughout our visit. Excellent accommodation, although bedrooms very hot during our visit. Ceiling fans may help! We will certainly book the house again when we next visit the Cape.
Many thanks
Margaret & Alan
Superb family house, clean spacious and secure.
Lovely welcome from Fiona with wine, flowers and essentials.
The pool was lovely and clean great for a dip on hot days, the boys enjoyed the table tennis - we never knew how addictive table tennis could be!
We had a great family holiday over Christmas and New Year,
Spending xmas day with penguins and New Years day with sharks was a fantastic memorable experience,
Harmony house's location meant we were minutes away from Hout Bay shops, and a short drive to Cape Town, Simons Town and Cape Point.
The lookout deck was a good place to eat as was the Pirates bar around the corner, the the Thai place was also excellent.
We would highly recommend and hope to return.
Russell and family

A year ago, underclassmen-laden Pinkerton Academy wasn't supposed to win its 10th Division I football championship since the celebrated 1985 season. But the young Astros, facing foes with far more experience, beat those odds.
This time around, the odds of repeating are overwhelmingly in their favor.
"Our focus doesn't change at all, even when we're not the favorites," Pinkerton head coach Brian O'Reilly said. "We simply strive for championships. That's our goal, otherwise it's not a successful year."
Quite simply, there isn't a more complete team, at present, than the one residing in Derry.
The Astros return almost everyone. Twelve of the team's 20 seniors are returning starters.
Bulldozer Kevin Davies and speedy Emmitt Smith are the focal points of Pinkerton's Wing-T offense. But there's also junior quarterback Chris St. Onge and sophomore Manny Latimore that round out the returning starting backfield.
Andrew Curran, exclusively a top-line defensive back in 2010, will reprise that role this season. But he's expected to earn touches on offense, too.
On a team stacked with superb athletes, Ryan Coombs could prove most dynamic. The 5-foot 11-inch, 178-pound senior kicks, punts, catches passes and patrols the defensive secondary.
"He's a big-game player. He can be a difference-maker. He's got some outstanding athletic ability that other kids do not have," O'Reilly said of Coombs. "He just turned 17 for his senior year. He really doesn't come off the field."
Linebackers Branden Rodgers, Davies and Matt Madden, last year the team's second-leading tackler as a freshman, were huge reasons the Astros excelled in red-zone defense. The linebacking corps added depth with the return of Matt St. Onge, sidelined in '10 with an ACL injury.
Understandably, the Astros were unanimously voted No. 1 in the preseason edition of the fourth-year statewide poll, a joint effort involving the New Hampshire Union Leader, WGAM-Radio and WMUR-TV.
Based on history alone, Pinkerton is the preseason pick.
Since O'Reilly's fabled Ryan Mihalko- and Joe Segreti-led 1985 team surprised everyone to win it all (the program's debut season in Division I) the Astros have always won championships in chunks.
The Astros went back-to-back in 1985-86, copped four straight crowns from 1991-94, and rattled off a three-peat from 2005-07.
But don't talk championship pep rally with O'Reilly just yet. Pinkerton's 34-year head coach knows a grid king isn't crowned in the preseason.
"We might be pegged as favorites. But we weren't pegged as favorites last year – and we won," he said. "Our focus is 'Don't allow newspaper clippings to influence hard work.'"
Division II – Nashua's Bishop Guertin High is under new leadership. But BG, seeking its seventh title in eight seasons, is still the top team.
Former Manchester West head coach Travis Cote replaced Tony Johnson, who stepped down over the winter. School officials wanted Johnson to focus fully on his job as athletics director.
Bob Fahey, a first-year starting QB, is running BG's new offense. Cote installed the Wing-T, a change from the spread-option attack used by Johnson.
Fahey is a 6-foot-2, 200 pound senior – and a scholarship men's lacrosse recruit for UMass. He's just one of many weapons, which also include playmakers Brody Smith (SE/DB) and Jimmy Carver (RB/DL).
Division III – Amherst's Souhegan High is the three-time defending champion. And though the Sabers only return two starters to their pass-happy spread offense, they've proven in the past that roster turnover isn't a problem.
Robby McCormick is Souhegan's third starting quarterback in as many years. The senior finally leads the offense after accomplished QBs had their turns the previous seasons. Chris Chininis is a serious threat out of the back field, particularly on screen plays. He is also a tremendous threat on punt and kick returns. Denny Desserault, a difference-maker in last year's three-peat clincher, also projects as a top target.
Souhegan has the chance to match former rival Plymouth (2000-03), the only team to win four straight Division III crowns since the league's inception in 1957.
Division IV – Manchester's Trinity High lost last year's final after building an early lead. The Pioneers have the personnel to dictate play, win playing their style and, ultimately, erase a bitter taste.
Josh Hughes and Ryan Carrier are power rushers in Trinity's double-wing offense. Adam Chambers adds the element of quickness. First-year starting QB Carmen Giampetruzzi, just a sophomore, has a strong left arm capable of connecting with 6-foot-7 tight end Andrew Lauderdale. Linebacker Mike Leonard is adept at disrupting plays on the other side of scrimmage.
Division V – This division may be the toughest to predict. But Claremont's Stevens High, a semifinalist last season, earns the slight edge. The Cardinals return several key contributors from a seven-win team. Signal-caller Logan Batchelder, now a junior, is among those returning for the team.
Division VI – Two years ago, Meredith's Inter-Lakes High experienced a storybook season with Paul Lavigne at the helm. Lavigne, a longtime high school and college coach, could be working with yet another Lakes Region title team.
The Lakers didn't lose much to graduation and instead added personnel with the addition of athletes from Moultonborough Academy. Linebacker Conor Donovan and lineman Hayden Jurius are Lavigne's leaders this cooperative team.
Division I – The final has featured Pinkerton in four of the last six seasons, most recently a year ago when the program finished No. 1.
The Astros are poised to repeat for these reasons: They return leading scorer Sean Smith, and considerable experience at the other end of the pitch. Brian Kling, Alex Patrikis and Shane Whitehouse are back on defense.
Division II – Can anyone stop Hanover High? The Marauders are the six-time defending champion. Several faces are new, but results aren't expected to change with Trey Rebman leading the charge. Robin Smith and Daniel Hazlett add to the team's wealth of talent.
Division III – Regardless of who's on the roster, it's hard to ground Gilford High's Golden Eagles. Midfielders Nick Riendeau and Vinnie Sisti, and defender Garrett Workman are the veteran leaders on this year's squad, whose task is to defend the program's 14th crown won last fall.
Division IV – Wilton-Lyndeborough High welcomes back most of its championship club. Opponents again must game plan for Adam Edmunds and Stephen Taliadoros, a quality scoring duo.
Division I – Hampton's Winnacunnet High wears the bull's-eye. Forward Kirsten O'Neil, a scholarship recruit for St. Diego State, returns. In the tournament quarterfinals a year ago, O'Neil netted the game-winning goal after scoring the equalizer that sent the match to overtime.
Division II – Defending champion Lebanon High appears poised to repeat. A baker's dozen worth of talent returns. Such veterans include goalkeeper Chrissy Drake. Defenders Haley Falzarano, Kyra Herbert and Colleen Taylor also anchor an experienced defense.
Division III – Litchfield's Campbell High returns several key contributors from last year's title team. Olivia Planty can put pressure on opposing netminders, while goalie Ashley Gannon and Liz Pettis assumes leadership roles at the other end.
Division IV – Manchester's Derryfield School has a stranglehold on the league. The Cougars seek to clinch their fourth consecutive championship. Offensive production is largely the responsibility of Carla Nyquist.

Hello friends!
Since you last heard from us, the Punarbal Plus HIV School in Kathmandu, Nepal, organized a series of successful events, recruited local community partners and welcomed eight orphans into the Punarbal family.
In July, representatives from the Nepali government, local hospitals and the District AIDS Coordination Committee gathered at the Punarbal School to discuss the spread of HIV/AIDS and to coordinate efforts to effectively combat the epidemic. On September 14th, we celebrated Nepal's Annual Children's Day with the ambassador of the Universal Access for Children Affected by AIDS in Nepal (UCAAN). We look forward to upcoming visits from the Indian ambassadors to Nepal and Save the Children-Nepal. Most recently, we've partnered with the Government of Nepal's Ministry of Labor and Transport Management and the Vocation and Skill Development Center to provide vocational education for parents of Punarbal students. Through these trade classes, parents will learn marketable skills like candle making and how to work with bamboo and create "mala" flower garlands. Together with the Nepali government, we are investing in the futures of families affected by the AIDS virus.
And because of your continuing support, eight orphans from the far west districts have joined our growing Punarbal family. Unfortunately, their full admission into the school has been delayed because these newcomers are without detailed case studies that will help us connect them with the services they desperately need. In fact, out of the 24 children we house, clothe and feed, only 4 of them have complete case files.
Thank you for supporting the only school for HIV/AIDS affected children in all of Nepal. You have helped us overcome so many challenges already. But there is still more work to do:
Help us hire 2 more caseworkers to compile the medical and social histories of our students so that we can secure their right to life-changing education.
Enjoy the day!

Both words and actions finally point to Norwich City's missing ingredient
©Focus Images Limited www.focus-images.co.uk +447814 482222
It's the question we've been dying to have answered from the moment the full-time whistle went at the DW Stadium last weekend. And no, it's not which row of the stand behind Scott Carson's goal was Kyle Lafferty was aiming for with that second-half free-kick…
It was pretty clear – and has been much discussed since – that Norwich City did things a little differently in Wigan: added directness from back to front, better in-game management and less naivety in their play as their hosts tried to force the issue.
And of course, the biggest caveat to last weekend was just how capable Wigan were of forcing anything.
For all the Latics' clear residual Premier League quality, they were so far off the pace and short of belief that maybe the Football Association plans to declare Malky Mackay's tenure at the DW his punishment for those severe text message misdemeanours at Cardiff.
Come this weekend's Carrow Road visit from Huddersfield Town, we will all be asking: has the Championship penny finally dropped for City? The definitive answer doesn't arrive for weeks, at least. But the next clue could be a vital one.
Now, trying to discuss such a situation on the basis of one 90-minute performance can be a difficult task – something I say from all too regular experience… But this time, the signs of encouragement since full-time in Greater Manchester have extended beyond the match action, into words.
Given the differences in expectation to the last time City were operating in the Championship, it's no surprise the soundbites have been different too – but that audible different is starting to shrink. And with it, the attitude may change too.
"We know we've got the quality but we have to work hard like the other teams are doing and after, if we keep doing that and keep working, then our qualities are going to damage the opposition and we have the chance to win," said Carlos Cuellar on Saturday.
"Of course everybody wants to play football and we've got the players, we know already, who can do that. But sometimes you cannot find the space and then you can't damage the opponents. We came here to fight, we got the goal, we kept the clean sheet… Buen!"
It's not a conscious thing for City, I know. No one goes out to purposefully struggle. But for me, City have looked like they've been out-worked by their opponents too many times since October – in the Championship, that always finds you out.
Cuellar's comments were the first time in a long time I can recall that work-rate situation being addressed – as well as the rightly-placed confidence that if they match their opponents' effort, City's quality will then look after the rest.
So have City finally absorbed what's needed to make this season the success they crave?
"I'm just coming in and applying a little bit of experience within the coaching department," Mike Phelan told that renowned football periodical, the International Business Times. The first-team coach is 16 days into his new role.
"It's a Premier League squad – it needs to adjust to Championship football, but the qualities are there."
Indeed Mike – and long may that adjustment continue.
• Just Saying…
Both the Norwich City supporter and journalist in me is looking forward to Saturday – and the return of Grant Holt for his first appearance at Carrow Road since leaving the club.
He may well score. He will almost certainly annoy the home fans at some point. And hopefully we'll avoid the acrimony of Reading.
But at least the ground will be united in saluting a proper Canaries' legend in our lifetime.

Lots Of Loose Ends
<===Ben Witt's 36"er Pofahl.
Today I will have some disjointed but relevant info that has back logged since the beginning of the week. First up, Ben Witt dropped off his 36"er last Monday for me to cruise around on for a bit. If you have a mind, stop by the shop and see it. I'll be commuting on it most days for awhile now. It is quite the rig, and the wheels......well, they are three feet high after all! They really like to roll, and keep rolling....... It's lots of fun to ride, I'll tell ya that much!
<===El Mariachi with Race King tires from Continental.
I've been rocking these Conti Race King 2.2 inchers lately and absolutely love them. The profile is very rounded, and the tire has lots of "height" for its width. They corner great and give just right over trail debris. The little triangular knobs grip surprisingly well. I will be very curious to see how they do when things get dry, hard, and fast this summer.
<====First flowers!
I'm a big flower fan. Especially of wild flowers. The flowers are popping out all over the woodland areas right now and I am loving it. The first ones are always the tiny, fast growing ones, so I had to get off my El mariachi, and get real low to take a look-see at 'em today.
<====A couple peas in a pod!
I was really happy to have spent some time with my friend Jeff Kerkove out at Sea Otter last week. Jeff is responsible for much of where I am today with regards to blogging, internet work, Trans Iowa and cycling in general. He's doing really well for himself these days with the Ergon gig and I'm happy to see his success. He has his gal, Sonya by his side, and life is good for him. It was great catching up. See ya soon, Buddy!
<===Trans Iowa t-shirt design?
It looks as though a former T.I.V2 veteran is going to down load some special t-shirts for the upcoming T.I.V5. Special edition and all. Like we are a "real" event now since we might be having this show up in time for everyone to get one.
If ya think that is special, wait till you see the number plates that were sponsor provided. Yeah.... It looks all "official" and stuff. But keep in mind, yer on yer own out there, and responsible for your self, even though it may look a bit different this time around with all the special trappings.
Thanks to you who are providing such cool items for our little gravely ride. d.p. and I really appreciate it.
And there's more, but you'll have to wait for the details later!

Smith Stories
On the blistering morning of Aug. 27, 2016, the Smith Freshman Class of 2020 congregated on the steps of the Xfinity Center, hounding for a place in the shade before reluctantly taking a class picture under the unrelenting sun. Yet, there was an excitement in the air not to be thwarted even by the heat. It was the kickoff event of the year: the Smith Leadership Institute, a day of inspirational storytelling on the importance of self-branding and networking.
Brent Goldfarb propels innovation in his entrepreneurship course. He knows there's no better way to enhance students' entrepreneurial prowess than to start and execute a business in 10-weeks flat – all the while in constant competition against their classmates.

Amateur astronomer Patrick Wiggins sent me this neat little animation of comet Garradd moving against background stars through an hour's worth of observing. I'm not any kind of astronomer but if I were I think I would get a kick out of looking at things that appear to move within one night of watching -- asteroids, comets, Jupiter's spots. I'm impatient that way.

Fourth MSL Landing Site Workshop: Day 2: Reports from Ryan Anderson
Posted by Emily Lakdawalla on 2010/09/30 11:37 CDT
I left the first day of the Fourth Mars Science Laboratory Landing Site Community Workshop on Monday just as they were getting in to the site-specific presentations. I left with no concern that I'd miss anything, though, because I knew that once he got done presenting his own work on Gale Crater, Cornell grad student Ryan Anderson would be taking notes and blogging the presentations on the other three sites.

Opportunity watches the clouds drift by
Posted by Emily Lakdawalla on 2008/02/12 04:11 CST
Opportunity is now following a rather leisurely autumn schedule, according to the latest update on the mission website. Some of the work Opportunity is doing involves staring skyward, looking for patterns in the clouds that pass overhead at this time of year. One of the guys at unmannedspaceflight.com has put together some nifty animations of the wispy cloud patterns.

This does as it says. It also makes it a little easier to add new fields without having to worry about column alignment.
Comment on attachment 571519 [details] [diff] [review]
I had an idea for an improvement to this. I'll post a new patch soon.
Created attachment 571762 [details] [diff] [review]
patch v2
This patch improves on the previous one by putting the MOZ_GCTIMER data into the Error Console (replacing the somewhat wrong data that was there before).
While I was at it, I also fixed the problem we have where we incorrectly think that all GCs are full GCs. With the fix, we will no longer run the cycle collector after a compartmental GC.
Gregor, do you have time to review this? Chris said his queue is pretty full.
and follow-up
/me mumbles something about a patch to dom/ not getting a review from a DOM peer.
May I ask what the GC numbers mean ?
Especially, is the "Total" the total time in ms?

> May I ask what the GC numbers mean ?
Uh, sorry. I thought nsJSEnvironment.cpp was a special case.
The numbers are in milliseconds. I can add units, since I guess it is a little confusing. Mark and Sweep are the time to do marking and sweeping. The remaining numbers mostly just break down the sweeping number. +Chu and -Chu tell you how many GC chunks were allocated or freed since the last GC.

Because of that almost all custom appenders in log4j 1.2 extend from AppenderSkeleton to inherit the implementation of composite filter. The appender interface should be refactored so it contains a reference to a generic Filter (which may or may not be a composite filter) and a Channel (or whatever we want to call the bit that makes one appender different from another). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: email@example.com For additional commands, e-mail: email@example.com

Microsoft and 343 Industries are bringing "Halo" to the small screen with the help of a very exciting partner. Steven Spielberg has teamed with those companies to develop a live action television series adaptation of the best-selling video game. It will be released as premium content on the new Microsoft gaming console, Xbox One.
"For me, 'Halo' has always been more than a game. It's an amazing experience that takes place in a rich and deeply connected sci-fi universe, a universe in which we can tell hundreds of stories. We tell these stories through our games, our novels and most recently our award-winning web series 'Forward Unto Dawn,'" 343 Industries' Bonnie Ross says during Microsoft's presentation.
She continues, "At 343, we've put a lot of thought into how we want to evolve storytelling on Xbox One. As a huge fan of television shows like 'Breaking Bad,' 'Band of Brothers' and my personal favorite 'Game of Thrones,' it's been inspiring to see television become a medium to bring the scope and scale of ever more ambitious worlds and adventures to life. I'm excited by the potential of merging the storytelling magic of television with the interactive innovation of Xbox One."
After that set-up, Ross unveiled that 343 Industries has partnered with Spielberg to bring the live action television series to life.
"Like all of you here today, I have been playing games for decades," Spielberg says during the conference. "Those stories have gotten more compelling and the technology has certainly improved, and so for me, the 'Halo' universe is an amazing opportunity to be at that intersection where technology and myth-making meet to produce something really groundbreaking. I'm incredibly excited about the great journey we're all on; the heroes, worlds and wonders that 'Halo' will take us on."
No title, premiere date or cast for the project have been announced yet.
