If you're the parent of an elementary- or middle school student, you might be noticing some signs of stress in your child.
Perhaps your child is complaining of nausea, stomachaches or headaches, or maybe has trouble falling asleep or wakes in the middle of the night.
Maybe his skin breaks out in red blotches. Or even worse, she no longer wants to go to school.
That might be because these kids are in the midst of taking the MSP — Measurements of Student Progress — the state's standardized test for all students in third through eighth grades. The MSP is given to test a student's knowledge in reading, math, writing and science. In high school, students take a different standardized test.
What can a parent do to help a child who is feeling stressed-out by this exam?
Clinical psychologist Dr. Paul Schoenfeld, the director of The Everett Clinic Center for Behavioral Health, said the first thing a parent needs to remember is this: It's the teacher taking the test, not the child.
"It's really important to explain to kids that these tests are to see whether the teacher is doing his or her job, and that takes the onus off of them," Schoenfeld said, adding that these tests can sometimes carry a lot of weight for teachers whose performance or compensation might be based on the results.
"We as parents can tell the child it's not about them, they don't have to be concerned, it's not their problem. You are not responsible here," Schoenfeld said. "You do the best you can, but how you do is unimportant."
The second point parents need to remember is to remind the kids that the value of this test is to help your teachers figure out what to help you with.
"We can tell our kids it's not like you get an A, B, C, D. You either know the material or you don't. This is not a pass-fail. It's all about whether or not the teacher needs to work a little bit harder to help you understand the material."
Schoenfeld said the stress these kids bring home is coming from the school, and the teachers who may be emphasizing that the students be successful.
At certain schools in the Everett School District, the focus is more on the MSP as an assessment tool.
Shelley Petillo, principal at Gateway Middle School, in her newsletter to staff recently pointed out that "the most important thing about the MSP is that they just 'show what they know.'
"We will set the tone for our students, and we will help to minimize the stress of the upcoming testing," Petillo wrote.
No matter how stressed or not a child might be, research has shown that individuals respond differently to stress: Schoenfeld calls it the difference between worriers and warriors.
Schoenfeld said there are some genetics involved when there's one kind of kid who thrives on the pressure and another kind who is more worried about what others will think if they don't perform well.
So for kids who are stressed, whether they are warriors or worriers, Schoenfeld recommends the parents work with kids to make a worry list. This is especially useful if your child is a worrier who might keep things bottled up.
To begin a worry list, the conversation might start out with "so tell me the things you are worried about," and then the list begins:
"I'm worried my teacher will be mad at me."
"I'm worried I'll do badly, and you will be mad at me."
"I'm worried I might forget everything I know."
The list is a good thing to do a couple of hours before bed because it "kind of gets it out," Schoenfeld said.
When the list is complete, the parents can then ask the child what they think they can do to be more comfortable.
Rather than telling them what to do, parents can let the child provide an answer, maybe they would like a cup of hot cocoa before school.
"For parents trying to perform mindful parenting, this helps children really begin to learn how to take care of themselves and at an early age," Schoenfeld said.
Schoenfeld said we as a society tend to overvalue those who are good at high-stress situations. We tend to focus on things like performance instead of hard work.
"Being good test takers and doing well in life, they have nothing to do with each other."
Some things to reassure them might be: "Look, honey, do the best you can. Enjoy yourself. Answer all the questions you know. It's one day of your life and it's not going to be the funnest. "
"Remember, the teacher is taking the test."

Johnny Marr breaks hand
Listen to Johnny Marr on iHeartRadio
The immediate future of Johnny Marr's guitar playing is up in the air.
The Smiths rocker-turned-solo artist tells "NME" he broke his hand last week while he was out running in London. Marr says he's obviously hoping there won't be any long term damage, and is still planning to be ready to go in time for a pair of U.K. shows in Leeds on March 24th and 25th.
He also isn't ruling out the following string of South American gigs, but he admits that it's all "a bit up in the air" at this point.
Marr is still promoting his debut solo effort "The Messenger," but he says he plans to put out the follow-up album in September.

Ive been trying a few distros during last 4-5 years, on different computers.
(all have worked just well out of the box, for most of my needs, exept high end games)
Now i have a idea of setting up linux all around the house, including a server for my media.
And here i really are going to need alot of help......
Lets start with what i have.
The server is an older Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 2.4GHz but it should do just fine for server use.
ive got a IDE 250gig system disk, a 500Gb media HD (ntfs atm.. so im not certain how to move data from NTFS disk) to the last HD on server, who is a 1TB disc, that is unused atm. Guessing i can install ubuntu, get ntfs file support, format 1tb disc, move data to that one and reformat 500 gig HD.
The two other computers in the network (one in bedroom and one in livingroom)
Are both Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3, Socket-AM3
The livingroom computer is a FX4100 prosessor, 8gb of 1600mhz ram, and Nvidia GF560TI
(this is the one i am using for music and movies) so im hoping my hw is working decent with any distro. (thinking of XBMC)
I also have a few laptops and a good old Galaxy P1000 Tab, and both my gf and i have Galaxy SII phones......
Now.. thats what i have... what i want is to be able to have a easy way to set up my server, and get a decent media setup for my livingroom.
Pref i want to be able to controll my media from my adroid based phones/tab.
(this worked pretty decent in windows.)
At least i will be dual booting my bedroom computer to be able to play BF3 once in a while...... (reading something about steam+linux..som there might be hope one day)
Now here is the hard part.....
Ive used Microsoft since the days you did write your own autoexec.bat files, and have no clue about linux. yes ive tried a few distros, but they all worked just out of the box.
(have to google to figure how to open console...) so im not familiar with none MS.....
Trouble on moust guides for linux, is that they say... open "somethig" or start "something", but i have no clue what or how to start... so i really need basic step by step guides for kids.....
Therefore i need some help for what distro to use on the server, and what to use on my media senter. it might work great with same distro on both... but i dont know...
it would be great if i could reach my media on server from android phones/tab, and if i did boot one computer in windows7.
so what do ppl suggest i install on server and mediapc? what should i do with my media on the NTFS disk? (dont want to loose my history with pictures....
All help is needed and appritiated.
sorry abotu syntax error and alot of questions... more will follow.

COLTON -- Authorities are searching for the person responsible for shooting an off-duty officer at a Colton gas station late Thursday night, according to initial dispatch of police reports.
Detectives at the scene of the shooting in the 2700 block of Iowa Avenue said the officer was transported to an undisclosed hospital but would not confirm the officer's condition. Initial reports indicate the officer died of his wounds.
The incident was first reported around 9 p.m. Officers responded and found the officer who reportedly worked for the Cailfornia Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation lying wounded at a gas station, according to initial police reports.
A vehicle officials believed was connected to the shooting was located by Riverside law enforcement authorites and two people appear to have been detained, though it wasn't immediately confirmed either was the shooter.
More to come.

These Swedish-made craftsman knives would be familiar to any European tradesman. I know a finish carpenter who has a few Moraknivs and he really likes them. The knives come in hard plastic sheaths that be clipped onto a tool belt or belt, or snapped onto the button-like fittings on the legs of European-style work pants (think Blaklader, Bjornklader, and Mascot). The yellow-handled knife on the left is for electrical work. The fellow is holding a double-edged chisel, which is sharp on the edge and the end. These are just a few of the products the company makes – they also make outdoor knives and axes.
Hmm… whose saw could this be?
It's the Triton TTS 1400, which is scheduled to come out later this year and will sell for $399 with a 59-inch rail ($319 without a rail). Features include a 12-amp VS soft-start motor, anti-kickback mechanism, and a tab that prevents the saw from falling off the rail when set to bevel (like Makita's track saw does). Interestingly, it does not have a riving knife. I saw this tool at the Kreg booth – Kreg (the pocket screw company) is the U.S. distributor for Triton. You may remember Triton as the Australian company that introduced an unusual-looking line of plunge routers about a decade ago. The company went under several years back and is now owned by a company in the U.K.
This made in the USA (Idaho) cart is one of my favorite tools from the show. It folds flat as shown for transport.
Opening the cart is a matter of lifting one side at a time to the upright position and engaging the legs with spring-loaded locks.
Once open, it's a very solid cart that can be used to roll tools and supplies around the jobsite or facility. The red cross-piece between the wheels is a foot-operated latch that allows you to release the legs when it's time to fold the cart. There is a second such latch on the other end. According to the manufacturer, this sub 50-pound cart can hold up to 400 pounds. It's 22" wide x 44" long x 32 1/2" high when open. The manufacture is selling the tool directly (for about $500) but was at the show to connect with vendors that could distribute it for them. I noticed a card on the table from Costco (which like Amazon and other big retailers was at the show to find new products) so maybe we'll see the cart there at some point in the future. The Rhino Tuff Collapsible Cart is a very cool product and if it went into mass production the price would probably fall to the point where they'd sell a lot of them.
This is definitely an odd machine. If you check out the cord and plug you will realize how small the saw is – the table is only 12" x 12". The PX-7070 takes up to 3 3/8-inch blade and can cut stock up to 7/8" thick. I have no idea what the rip capacity is, but with a saw this small – who cares? What grabbed me about it is that it exists at all. I can't imagine using such a tiny machine, but then I'm not a model maker. I wouldn't have given it a second look if it hadn't been made by Proxxon (I bought one of their rotary tools a couple of years back). The company is based in Luxembourg and does most of its manufacturing there – though some of their tools are made in China. Proxxon tools can be purchased directly from the US distributor in Wisconsin or from vendors such as McFeely's, Woodcraft Supply, and Amazon. This particular saw retails for about $400.
If the previous photo made you run out and buy a tiny table saw, now you know where to get an equally small chop saw to go with it. The KGS80 takes 3 1/8-inch carbide tipped blades and cut-off wheels. As with the table saw, this is a machine that would be used by someone who makes jewelry or models. This saw retails for about $240.
I didn't say it's perfect; that's the name of the product line. The item shown here is the Adjust-a-Strap 6-in-1 Adjustable Bungee. It's made by Bihlerflex, a New Jersey company that produces all sorts of polyurethane items. The 6-in-1 bungee clips into itself so you can shorten it or wrap it a number of different ways. According to the manufacturer the polyurethane material in this product won't break down in the sun the way rubber and latex in other bungees will. The ends of this bungee are made from a stiff nylon material so they won't rust or scratch your vehicle. The 6-in-1 model is 36" long and retails for $8 or $9.
If you are one of those people who believe in fate, then here's your proof that it exists. The fellow holding the bungees is the product manager for bungees (and other items) at Bihlerflex. His name is Tom Bunge. How weird is that?
This not the first hand tool with a built-in LED light (Craftsman introduced lit pliers a couple of years back and an adjustable wrench last year) but it's one of the more useful ones I have seen. Some may view it as a gimmick, but having recently replaced a kitchen faucet I can see how handy it would have been to have used a wrench with a light in it – instead of the headlamp that kept getting knocked off my head in the cabinet. The handle contains the electricals: a switch, watch-style battery, and an LED on either side of the jaws. You can't accidentally drain the battery because the lights automatically turn off after three minutes. I can't see this being someone's everyday wrench but it would come in handy for certain kinds of maintenance work. The wrench retails for about $20.
These new soldering irons have built-in LEDs to light the work area. Weller is owned by the same company (Apex Tools) as Crescent. See a pattern here? It's not just Weller and Crescent; any number of companies have added LED lights to tools that didn't have them before. I saw a ton of these products at the show.
Pelican is best known for making heavy-duty storage cases. Who knew they also made LED lighting? Cops, fire fighters, and military folks – that's who. The 9440 RALS (remote area lighting system) is their top-of-the-line folding model. Shown here in a lowered position (so I could fit in in a photo), it can be extended to a height of 85". It produces up to 2400 lumens and runs for 3 hours on high or 6 hours on low. Charging time is 8 hours. The 9440 lists for around $1,000 but I've seen it for a couple hundred bucks less on the web.
The 9420 is less expensive version of the light described in the previous slide. Shown here in the process of being folded, it extends to a height of 62". It produces up to 1,000 lumens of light and will run for 2 hours on high or 4 hours on low. The battery is integrated into the base and takes 2 hours to charge. The kit version (light, charger, and case) retails for about $320.
I wanted to show you how small the 9420 work light is when folded (just like a tripod). Now that you've seen that – check out the ice chest below and behind it. Yes, Pelican makes ice chests. This super heavy-duty model is part of the Elite Series and is said to be able to retain ice for 7-10 days. It has very thick walls, a gasketed lid, and is built like a tank. The brochure shows a fishing guide using it. I'd buy one for camping if I could figure out a way to explain to my wife why I spent $250-400 for an ice chest (I'm working on it).
I couldn't help stopping in at the RapidAir booth because their compressed air piping systems reminded me of what a mess the air hoses are in my shop (hung over rafters and strung from hooks). The company produces a variety of systems for home, pro shop, and industrial use. The FastPipe system (shown here) consists of powder coated aluminum pipe, nylon compression fittings, and a variety of valves, saddles, and outlets to which air fittings can be attached. It's designed for industrial, farm, and woodworking shop applications and can be purchased in pieces or kits. The 100' FastPipe kit lists for $599 and the 235' Master kit for $999.
The 1/2- and 3/4-inch coiled pipe shown here is aluminum clad inside and out with HDPE (a type of plastic). It's joined with metal fittings and is used in industrial systems. RapidAir also makes systems for home shop use. Their 100' garage system uses nylon tubing and lists for about $139. Components can be purchased separately for all of their systems so kits can be customized or adapted to where they're installed.
If you haven't seen a Dual Saw then you haven't been paying attention. Popularized in a series of infomercials by the late Billy Mays, the Dual Saw concept has been around for years. The central feature is a pair of blades that spin in opposite directions. Similar tools are available from Craftsman and Ridgid. I'm not particularly interested in this saw but am showing it here to give you a sense of the pedigree of the following tools.
This recip saw has two blades instead of one. While one is on the forward stroke the other is on the backstroke – the idea being that this makes for better control and less vibration. I saw a guy cut with it and it looked pretty smooth. But I didn't get to cut with it myself. This 12-amp saw takes proprietary blades and has a switch that allows you to change the stroke length at will (3/4" or 1 1/4"). The saw shown here is a prototype. According to the manufacturer, the saw will hit the market late this year and retail for $159.

Undergraduate Education
Requirements for Graduation
Catalogue Regulations, Policies and ProceduresIn addition to degree requirements outlined below, undergraduate and graduate students are also subject to current catalogue regulations, policies and procedures. Examples include, but are not limited to, the policy on the grade of incomplete and graduation with honors. Unlike degree requirements, changes in regulations, policies and procedures are immediate and supersede those in any prior catalogue.
Graduation DateA student will be awarded the graduation date for the term in which degree requirements, including submission of supporting documents, have been met. Although course work may have been completed in a prior term, the degree will be awarded only for the term for which all academic and administrative requirements have been fulfilled. Students wishing to change the degree date from that indicated on the STARS Report should file a Change of Information card with the revised degree date. The cards are available in the Degree Progress Department in Hubbard Hall. Degrees are not awarded retroactively.
Discontinued Degree ProgramsStudents pursuing major or minor programs which the university discontinues will be allowed to complete them within a specified time limit. The time limit will be specified at the point of discontinuance of a major or minor program and begins at that point. It is determined according to the student's progress toward degree completion and will not exceed five years for any student.
Closed RecordThe academic record of a student who has completed the program of study or ceased attendance is considered closed. Once a student's record is closed, no further additions or changes may be made. This includes, but is not limited to, such things as change of name, registering in additional course work, resolution of marks of incomplete (IN) and missing grade (MG), declaration of minors, etc.
Degree RequirementsUndergraduate degree requirements consist of grade point averages, residence requirements, general education requirements, the writing requirement, the diversity requirement, pre-major and major requirements, and minor requirements. Undergraduate students may elect to follow (a) the degree requirements in the catalogue current in their first term of enrollment after admission or readmission at USC or (b) degree requirements in a subsequent catalogue as long as they were enrolled in a term in which it was in effect. However, students may not mix catalogues.
While there are no specific time limits for completing the bachelor's degree, over the years many departments change their major requirements in accordance with developments in the field and department. Occasionally, general education requirements are changed or a degree program is discontinued.
Therefore, undergraduate students who do not complete their degrees within six consecutive years from the beginning of the semester of their first completed USC course work will not be allowed automatically to continue following their pre-major, major and minor requirements as specified above. (This time limit includes semesters during which students are not enrolled.) The pertinent department chair will decide what pre-major, major and minor requirements each student must follow and communicate the decision to the student in writing.
Students who do not complete their degrees within 10 consecutive years from the beginning of the semester of their first completed USC course work will not be allowed automatically to continue their general education requirements. (This time limit includes semesters during which students are not enrolled.) The General Education Office will decide what general education requirements each student must follow and communicate the decision to the student in writing.
An appeal of a department's decision may be made to the dean of the appropriate academic unit or the Provost's Office for academic units without departments. An appeal of a general education decision may be made to the Committee on Academic Policies and Procedures (CAPP).
Grade Point Average RequirementA grade point average of at least C (2.0) on all baccalaureate units attempted at USC, as well as on the combined USC-transfer GPA, is required for undergraduate degrees. A minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.0 in all attempted upper division courses for the major is also required, regardless of the department in which the courses are taken. The university will not deviate from policies governing the calculation of the grade point average through inclusion or exclusion of course work.
Unit RequirementStudents are required to take a minimum of 128 baccalaureate units at the undergraduate level (of which not more than four units may be physical education units). A student may earn a maximum of 16 units for individual instruction in music at the 101/300/301 levels and comparable transfer courses. No more than 8 units of dance technique courses (THTR 181 through THTR 189 and comparable transfer courses) may be applicable toward an undergraduate degree. Of the 128 unit minimum at least 32 units must be upper division course work. Students must also complete all upper division course work in the major at USC. The university will not deviate from the minimum unit requirements stated above or the additional unit-specific requirements. Some disciplines require more than the minimum requirements. Check individual department listings for specific requirements.
Unit credit indicates the number of semester units earned in the course; these units may or may not be applicable to the degree. Degree credit indicates the units are applicable to the degree.
Pass/No Pass Graded WorkA maximum of 24 units of undergraduate course work taken on a pass/no pass basis may be used toward an undergraduate degree and a maximum of 4 of these 24 units may be applied to the general education requirements. WRIT 130, WRIT 140 and WRIT 340 will not fulfill undergraduate writing requirements if taken on a Pass/No Pass (P/NP) basis.
Use of Pass/No Pass course work to fulfill major requirements must be approved in writing by the academic department. Course work required for a minor may not be taken on a P/NP basis. Individual academic departments may have placed further restrictions on whether a course taken on a Pass/No Pass basis can be used to fulfill specific requirements.
In cases where a student has registered for a course on Pass/No Pass (P/NP) basis, and the student is subsequently found to have committed an academic integrity violation in the course, the instructor may elect to assign a penalty letter grade, rather than assign a mark of Pass or No Pass.
General Education RequirementsGeneral education and writing requirements for all students are provided in this section. Additional specific information is included with the information on individual majors.
Diversity RequirementThe diversity requirement must be met by all students who began college at USC or elsewhere in fall 1993 or later. It can be met by passing any one course carrying the designation "m" for multiculturalism. The list of courses and further details about meeting the diversity requirement are found in this section.
Gateway CourseA gateway course is a lower division 3-4 unit course that introduces and showcases the minor or major curricula of an academic field of study. It is intended to be a student's first exposure to a field of study.
Upper Division Major Course WorkThe university requires that all undergraduate students successfully complete at USC all the upper division courses that are applied to their major. Substitution of a comparable upper division course for a required one may be entered in the STARS exception process by the departmental advisor with the support of the department. Substitutions and waivers of USC or transfer courses for upper division requirements for majors are to be limited to a combination of 25 percent. Substitution of courses with the same departmental prefix are exempted from this limit. Lower division courses cannot be substituted for upper division course requirements.
Minor ProgramsApplication for a minor must be made to the department or professional school and an appropriate endorsement must appear on a change/addition of major or minor degree objectives form. Students who decide not to complete a declared minor must formally drop the minor program. Failure to drop a declared minor may delay the awarding of the student's degree.
The following guidelines apply to minor programs:
(1) Minor programs are available to students matriculated in an undergraduate degree program and must be completed simultaneously with the major degree program.
(2) Minors constituted of course work from a single department may not be earned by students majoring in that department.
(3) Students may take an interdepartmental minor in which their major unit participates as long as at least four courses (at least 16 units) required for the minor are not courses offered by the major department.
(4) Students must take at least four courses (at least 16 units) which are unique to the minor (i.e., not required to fulfill the student's major, another minor or general education requirements).
(5) All upper-division course work required for the minor must be taken at USC.
(6) Departments at their discretion may substitute no more than 25 percent of the required units defined in the catalogue for a given minor program. Substitution of courses with the same departmental prefix are exempted from this limit. Lower division courses cannot be substituted for upper division course requirements.
(7) Departments at their discretion may waive no more than 4 units for minor programs with 17 to 20 units or no more than 8 units for minor programs with more than 20 units for each student. The number of units unique to the minor after any departmental waivers or substitutions must total at least 16 units.
(8) No course work required for the minor may be taken on a Pass/No Pass basis.
(9) A minimum cumulative 2.0 GPA must be achieved in all courses required for the minor. A higher minimum may be required by the sponsoring department or unit.
(10) Students whose major degree programs do not include a language requirement need not satisfy that requirement to earn a minor from the College of Letters, Arts and Sciences or a professional school that has a language requirement unless the minor specifically requires the language.
(11) Completion of the minor program will be recorded on the transcript. The student receives a separate minor certificate for each minor program completed.
Departmental Honors ProgramsThe following departments have received approval from the university Undergraduate Curriculum Committee for their majors to graduate with departmental honors:
Anthropology; Art History; Biochemistry; Biological Sciences (B.A. and B.S.); Broadcast Journalism; Chemistry (B.A. and B.S.); Cinematic Arts; Classics; Communication; Comparative Literature; Earth Sciences; Economics; English; French; Gender Studies; Geography; Geological Sciences; German; History; Human Development and Aging (B.S.); International Relations; Linguistics; Mathematics (B.A. and B.S.); Neuroscience; Philosophy, Philosophy (Ethics, Law and Value Theory); Political Science; Print Journalism; Psychology; Public Policy, Management, and Planning; Public Relations; Religion; Sociology; and Spanish.
The minimal requirements for receiving departmental honors are that the student: (1) satisfactorily completes course work for an honors project and (2) achieves no less than a 3.5 GPA (A = 4.0) in the major at the time of graduation. Each program, department or school will designate what it considers the appropriate course work and honors project.
Departmental honors are noted on academic transcripts but not on the diploma.

The two-day storm moving through the Inland Empire dropped more than a foot of snow in Big Bear Lake Thursday, and prompted a flood advisory in other parts of the Inland Empire for much of Friday.
Ski resorts in the San Bernardino Mountains were enjoying the results of the storm Friday with the arrival of fresh powder.
"We received 12-14 inches far and it's still coming down!" officials at Bear Mountain Ski Resort wrote on their website.
Mountain High Ski Resort officials in Wrightwood reported receiving six to eight inches of snow Thursday night.
A Lake Arrowhead resident reported eight inches of "wet snow" on the ground Friday afternoon.
Saturday morning should be cloudy, but dry, said Tina Stall, a NWS meteorologist. The sun should pop out in the afternoon, she said.
Temperatures Saturday will warm up with a high of 63 degrees expected in Ontario, 61 degrees in both Redlands and San Bernardino, according to AccuWeather.
Sunday should be sunny and warmer, with temperatures climbing into the 70s, Stall said.
"The cold air will depart quickly," she said.
Small "BB"-sized hail was reported Friday in the Victorville area and in parts of San Diego and Orange counties, Stall said.
Inland Empire temperatures could creep into the 80s by Monday, Stall said.

Sandy • The Jordan boys' basketball team certainly won't intimidate opposing teams when the players step off the bus.
Just two players listed taller than 6 foot 3, and three others who see significant playing time don't even crack 6 feet.
This is not a team that would pass the eye test in street clothes at least.
But what the Beetdiggers lack in size, they make up for in unity. Starting center Brandon Pasker is the personification of the team's approach: let your game, not your size, do the talking.
Pasker has emerged as the team's go-to player a year after scoring a total of 15 points as a junior in a reserve role. He stands 6-6 and is listed at 190 pounds (with rolls of quarters in his pockets?) but makes his presence felt in the post.
"The junior-to-senior year development has been really critical with him," Jordan coach Rob Geertsen said. "He's real skinny, but he's actually stronger than he looks. All of his teammates have learned that the ball has to go through him to make them successful, too."
Pasker has scored in double figures in all but one of Jordan's first 18 games, highlighted by a 35-point effort against East in December.
He added about 15 pounds of muscle over the summer by working with John Madsen, a former University of Utah receiver and Oakland Raiders tight end.
"I feel like I can finish around the rim pretty well," said Pasker, who entered the week averaging 17.9 points per game. "It's a big difference. I can definitely jump higher, run faster."
Geertsen said the added size has helped boost Pasker's confidence.
"I think he's playing real confident right now," Geertsen said. "I think that's a result of working on his body in the offseason."
The results have been staggering. Six double-doubles (in scoring and rebounding) entering the week, and 14 wins in the standings three more than last year's total.
Pasker alone cannot take credit for the victories. The Beetdiggers' all-senior rotation also features 5-11 point guard Chandler Smith (11.7 points per game) and 6-foot forward Jonas Jones (10.3).
Geertsen said the players dedicated themselves in the offseason to turning around a program that closed last season with six losses in its final seven games.
"We did a lot of stuff with our team in the offseason," Geertsen said. "Last spring we sat down as a group and decided we were going to all be committed, we were going to be all-in on everything that we did.
"[Pasker] was part of every single thing that we did in the offseason. With all the hard work we put in, now we're kind of doing it for each other."
The Beetdiggers went 4-1 to start Region 3 play, with the lone loss a 73-56 loss to Brighton.
"I feel like we all stick together and we don't point figures like we did last year," Pasker said. "We played hard last year, but I feel we play more as a team. I feel like we have more fun."
Pasker file
Jordan senior Brandon Pasker scored in double figures in 17 of the team's first 18 games this season.
Pasker, who scored just 15 points all of last season, had a career-high 35 points against East in December.
Pasker is part of an all-senior eight-man rotation that coach Rob Geertsen plays.

Bear, Elizabeth. The White City
In a loose sequel to Bear's alternate history-cum-mystery "New Amsterdam," we are taken from the New World into the depths of the old. Immortal vampire detective Don Sebastien de Ulloa seeks rest and healing, both for himself and for the human members of his court, the inimitable forensic sorceress Lady Abigail Irene and the lady author, Phoebe Smith. The trio travel to the depths of Russia, to the White City of Moscow…a place Don Sebastien has not visited in many years. While he seeks respite, what he finds is only more death. Visiting an old friend, he finds instead a cooling corpse and no trace of the lady he seeks. A mystery he thought was done and gone has re-emerged from hiding, embroiling Don Sebastien and his court in the dangerous jealousies and ancient rivalries of Moscow's vampire community.
The mystery here is hardly the point. While the motivations are realistic and the crimes dramatic, what readers will find most fascinating are Bear's characters: the ascerbic Abigail Irene, the unprepossessing Phoebe Smith hiding unexpected depths behind her smile, and, most of all, the ancient, conflicted, and decidedly post-human Don Sebastien. Bear's vampires definitely do not sparkle, but they captivate nonetheless.

Solutions in Shopping
This month I joined John Donahue, the CEO of eBay, at a National Press Club event to discuss the climate benefits created by small, online retail businesses. The retail sector—and the private sector more broadly—has a huge opportunity to innovate and drive us toward a more climate-friendly clean energy economy, and we are encouraged that eBay is stepping forward to make this point.
Active business community engagement is fundamental both to achieving effective climate policy and to achieving real reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. Industry must work with their employees, their supply chain, and policy makers to make the case that addressing a changing climate is essential and can be good for business—providing policy certainty, leading to innovation and investment, and ultimately helping to move our economy towards a low-carbon future.
According to the new eBay-commissioned white paper, small e-retailers facilitate the reuse of products and eliminate the need for carbon-intensive brick-and-mortar stores, both of which are climate-friendly compared to big box retail. For instance, it suggests that since eBay's founding 15 years ago, the infrastructure savings from its online marketplace alone have cumulatively displaced emissions equivalent to approximately 4 million tons of CO2 per year, or the annual output of 760,000 cars—roughly the number registered in the state of Kansas or West Virginia.
In our current period of policy uncertainty, one thing we do know is that energy efficiency matters and it works. We also know from the work we do on employee engagement that individuals and consumers are a huge untapped resource in the effort to seriously address our energy-climate challenges. It's clear that the key role for retailers—both online and "offline"—is to connect consumers to low-emission/energy-efficient goods and services, and companies such as eBay and Best Buy, a featured case study in our recent report on corporate energy efficiency, are doing just that.

Witnesses who fail to co-operate with the Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority will face civil penalties under a new bill set to have a profound impact on Australian sport.
Federal Sports Minister Kate Lundy's office confirmed to Fairfax Media on Wednesday night that the ''Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority amendment bill 2013'' was introduced within 24 hours of the revelation that AFL club Essendon was to be probed for players' use of possible illegal performance-enhancing drugs.
Provided the bill is passed, ASADA will have the legal right to compel any person it believes to have information about doping practice, or a specific doping breach, to give evidence in an interview.
ASADA - which is in the midst of a major probe into Australian cycling after the Lance Armstrong scandal, and is now launching an AFL investigation - would also have the right to compel witnesses to produce documents or related material.
As it stands, any witnesses ASADA is interested in talking to for a doping investigation can refuse the agency's requests for evidence.
If the bill is passed, in the event of a refusal, ASADA chief executive Aurora Andruska could issue any persons of interest with a disclosure notice. Andruska would have the power to issue such a notice not only to athletes or related sports personnel, but to anyone believed to have information on doping or a doping breach.
While the AFL has rules under its anti-doping code that insist relevant parties co-operate with any investigations, the new bill gives ASADA unprecedented power and control over doping probes. The major boost to ASADA's powers has been championed previously by Australian Olympic Committee boss John Coates and was a key recommendation of former Supreme Court judge James Wood, who carried out a federal government-charged investigation into doping in Australian cycling. His findings were tabled in January.
Senator Lundy is set to make a major announcement in Canberra on Thursday morning with Minister for Home Affairs Jason Clare. It is understood the introduction of the bill to bolster ASADA's powers is related to the announcement.

Hi Guys,
I need some help please, for some reason when a new record is added the field called TimeStamp is left blank. Here is how the field is setup:
Column Type Attributes Null Default Extra
TimeStamp timestamp on update CURRENT_TIMESTAMP No CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
Can anyone see anything as to why on a new record its left as 0000-00-00 00:00:00 ?
Below is the PHP code i am using to insert a new record:
$query6 = sprintf("INSERT INTO logs VALUES ('',%s,%s,'')",
The last part thats blank '' is for the TimeStamp as iv left it blank thinking when a new record is added MySQL will add the current time/date automatically, any help would be great!
Thank you..!
could you do a SHOW CREATE TABLE for that table please
Thanks for the reply, I've never used that function before so not sure what im suppose to do with it, when i enter it in the SQL for PHPMYADMIN its coming up with an error. Can you give me some guidance please.
Thank you.
Do not include the timestamp in your INSERT statement. Your telling it to add a null time stamp rather than letting it do its thing.
I've change it to this but its still not adding the time stamp:
$log = "added a new contact - $postfullname from $CompanyName";
$query4 = sprintf("INSERT INTO logs VALUES ('',%s,%s)",
SHOW CREATE TABLE logs
Via http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/show-create-table.html
Thanks, below is the information:
CREATE TABLE logs ( LogID int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, EditedBy text NOT NULL, Log text NOT NULL, TimeStamp timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, PRIMARY KEY (LogID)) ENGINE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=174 DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1
INTO logs
( EditedBy , Log )
( %s , %s )
do not mention the columns that have a default behaviour
two of yours do, two don't
supply values only for the columns that don't
The issue here is that you are looking for the default behavior for timestamp but you are attempting to register an empty string as a timestamp value. This is not permitted. As r937 described above you should really name the columns you do not want default behavior for. Another way of doing this is passing a NULL value when you want the default behavior to be initiated.
For example:
$query6 = sprintf("INSERT INTO logs VALUES (null,%s,%s,null)",
Would have worked.
You should not be passing the value at all, not even using NULL, as r937 and I stated.

There are the artists and designers who die too young, before the cognoscenti discover and elevate their work from obscurity, and then there are the John Johansens of the world, who live long enough to hear some of their self-proclaimed best work derided by detractors as having outlived its useful life. Johansen died last week of heart failure in Brewster, Mass., at age 96, fully aware of the ongoing battles to demolish two of his buildings: the 1970 Mummers Theater in Oklahoma City, and the 1967 Morris A. Mechanic Theater in Baltimore.
Both buildings have been derided for their forbidding Brutalism. And both have found ardent supporters. The Mummers, which, with its concrete "pods" connected by skywalks, has an almost whimsical air, may be saved from the wrecking ball if a local group, including Tracy Zeeck with Rees Architects, succeeds with its proposal to refashion the building as a children's museum. And the Mechanic Theater, threatened with demolition by a development firm, has received a temporary stay of execution because the local AIA chapter in Baltimore helped persuade the city to reconsider giving the building landmark status.
Johansen, who was the last surviving member of that heavyweight contingent of Modernist architects known as the Harvard Five (Philip Johnson, Marcel Breuer, Landis Gore, and Eliot Noyes were the others), was anything but a rigid thinker, resistant to change. His buildings reflected a constant progression of ideas. His 1957 Warner House in New Canaan, Conn., with its gold-leaf ceilings, ebonized wood cabinets, and symmetrical layout by way of Palladio, "helped show that Modernism, which had its roots in industrial efficiency, could also be luxurious," Fred Bernstein wrote in The New York Times' obituary of the architect
There were, of course, Johansen's Brutalist theaters, which were physically imposing and assertive. But even as he was designing those monumental structures in concrete, he was building a series of so-called Symbolic Houses, which drew upon the work of the psychoanalyst Carl Jung. The 1975 Plastic Tent House in Stanfordville, N.Y., was nothing more than a steel frame covered in translucent plastic. But Johansen designed it as his own home, with a bedroom lined with stone symbolizing the womb, and a stone bathroom off the living room used for ceremonial washing.
In 2002, well into his 80s, he published a book titled Nanoarchitecture: A New Species of Architecture, a collection of futuristic projects that revealed his optimistic belief in the transformative power of technology. "His models, ostensibly illustrating the technologies of tomorrow, were constructed from plastic oddments and bric-a-brac he picked up at junk stores on Canal Street," wrote Mark Lamster, who commissioned the book, in a Design Observer blog post.
Johansen's optimism coursed through all of his work and was also on display when he swallowed his anguish and put on a brave face at seeing some of his best work threatened with demolition. "My response to this, as to other of my buildings which have been threatened, is: The reward for an architect is in the doing. Having done it already, he can't expect much more from it," he told Amanda Kolson Hurley, when she interviewed him about the Mechanic Theater for ARCHITECT.
Johansen's passing was a great loss. And so, too, will it be a great loss if future generations are left to page through two-dimensional art-book images as they attempt to discern his lasting legacy.

Photo taken June 6, 1939
On the front bumper of Engine No 1, two handguns were fastened to a board and pointed to the ground. At a given speed, the police officer riding in the seat would give the fire apparatus driver a command to stop, and at the same time he would fire one of the hand guns from his seat. The hand gun was loaded with a chalk charge and would leave a mark on the pavement. After the rig was completely stopped, the officer would fire one more charge. They would measure the distance between the chalk marks to determine the required stopping distance. This was done to partially fulfill requirement to promote a firefighter to driver. Wm.

UHMC Executive Committee
Minutes of the Meeting of Tuesday, January 3, 2012
1. Attendance. The meeting was convened at 2:05 p.m. in Ka'aike 109. Present were Chancellor Clyde Sakamoto, Nicole Beattie, Vice Chancellor Jose Bernier, Mark Cook, Kahele Dukelow, David Grooms, Mikahala Helm, Kerry Holokai, Kulamanu Ishihara, Kaleikoa Ka'eo, Liane Koga, Vice Chancellor John McKee, Brian Moto, Allan Pan-Takase, Vice Chancellor Alvin Tagomori, Vice Chancellor David Tamanaha, Lori Teragawachi, Ray Tsuchiyama, Susan Wyche, and Elaine Yamashita.
2. Enrollment. Vice Chancellor Tagomori reported that enrollment as of January 3, 2012 was 3,795, 3.9% lower than last year's total of 3,981. Applications are down 180 from last year. Continuing students total 2,969 or 65.5%, from Fall 2011 to Spring 2012.
Vice Chancellor Tagomori distributed copies of a spreadsheet entitled, "Undergraduate Headcount by Major." Vice Chancellor McKee observed that the decline in Health Services enrollment may be due in part to procrastination. The closure of the UHMC Business Office during Winter Break may also have affected student enrollment.
Vice Chancellor Tagomori said that it is possible that academic counseling may have caused students to be more careful in credit course load. Further, federal health care reform has provided for extension of parental health insurance coverage to more college-age students. Although financial aid is now contingent upon satisfactory academic progress, no students have yet been suspended due to the new academic probation policy. However, now that grades are in from the semester just concluded, UHMC may begin to see the impact of the academic probation policy.
Kī'ope Raymond reported that he is getting email from many students seeking to enroll in his classes.
3. Convocation. Convocation is scheduled for Thursday, January 5, 2012. The program will recognize retirees, introduce new faculty and staff, report on the pending request for approval of emeritus status for four retired faculty, report on social media initiatives and on information technology projects, and discuss strategic planning.
4. Budget. Vice Chancellor Tamanaha reported that Spring 2012 revenue may be down 5.5% or about $200,000.
5. Lau'ulu Proposal. Members of the Lau'ulu Council presented and discussed a draft "Native Hawaiian Student Affairs Model, University of Hawai'i Maui College." The proposal is to be part of a larger Pūko'a Council initiative. (The Pūko'a Council is composed of representatives of councils from each University of Hawai'i campus. Among the Pūko'a Council's purposes is to provide advice and information to the University President on issues of particular relevance for Native Hawaiians and for Native Hawaiian culture, language, and history.)
The proposal arises as a response to the University of Hawai'i Community College's Strategic Outcomes and Performance Measures 2008-2015, which set as a goal the positioning of the University "as one of the world's foremost indigenous-serving universities by supporting the access and success of Native Hawaiians." The proposal is also a response to UHMC Strategic Plan Goal 3, Objective 2, which states: "Strengthen the crucial role that the College performs for the indigenous people and general population of Maui County by actively preserving and perpetuating Hawaiian culture, language, and values."
Kaleikoa Ka'eo provided an overview of a history of University-related Native Hawaiian councils and task forces, programs and initiatives, and budgeting and staffing.
As discussed by Kulamanu Ishihara on behalf of Lau'ulu, the proposal is designed to target five problems or matters of concern:
i. Native Hawaiian students are academically underprepared when entering UHMC;
ii. Native Hawaiian students are overrepresented on the Academic Probation list;
iii. Native Hawaiian students have a lower than expected graduation rate than Non-Hawaiian students;
iv. Native Hawaiian students at the UHMC Outreach Education Centers (Hāna, Moloka'i, Lāna'i, and Lāhainā) have inequitable access to Student Affairs support services in comparison to Native Hawaiian students at the Kahului campus; and
v. The Hawaiian enrollment at UHMC has increased from 723 Native Hawaiian students in 2006 to 1,574 Native Hawaiian students in Fall 2011.
Under the proposal, a new position of UHMC Vice Chancellor for Native Hawaiian Student Affairs would be established. Reporting to the Vice Chancellor would be new APT, student assistant, and instructor/counselor positions assigned to matters relating to project management, the Maui community, the Kahului campus, and the Outreach Education Centers. Total estimated annual cost of the new positions is approximately $ 1.65 million.
The new positions would be focused on recruitment, retention, and other student support services for Native Hawaiian students and other students wanting to participate. The proposed model would not replace existing Student Affairs programs, but is intended to strengthen the institution for Native Hawaiian students and UHMC as a whole. The proposal seeks not to segregate Native Hawaiians, but to identify, and address, needs and challenges pertaining to Native Hawaiians.
Kulamanu Ishihara observed that, prior to the establishment of the Pūko'a Council in 2000, there were only 145 Native Hawaiian faculty. In 2010, there were 257 Native Hawaiian faculty. It was also noted that the draft Lau'ulu proposal arises in the context of discussions and efforts to adopt a Hawaiian Studies Associate of Arts degree systemwide and to indigenize the UH system.
Lau'ulu representatives provided information comparing UHMC to other UH campuses in terms of numbers of existing positions for Native Hawaiian student recruitment and retention. Hawai'i Community College's Kauhale program has five G-funded positions. UH Hilo's Kīpuka program has 9.5 G-funded positions in Hawaiian student services. Windward Community College has two full-time G-funded positions. Leeward Community College's Hālau 'Ike O Pu'uloa program has five positions for Native Hawaiian student support services. The positions also enable the respective colleges to seek extramural sources of funding.
6. Events and Activities.
· The House Higher Education Committee will visit the campus on January 13, 2012.
· Construction of the chilled water loop is ongoing.
7. Adjournment. The meeting was adjourned at 3:20 p.m.

Buffalo did a number of good things during the offseason. Dave Wannstedt was promoted to Defensive Coordinator and Buffalo switched back to a 4-3 scheme. William Inge was hired as the defensive line coach, David Lee was hired as the quarterbacks coach, and Pete Metzelaars was hired as the tight ends coach. Steve Johnson, Scott Chandler, Kirk Morrison, Rian Lindell and Garrison Sanborn were all re-signed while Bryan Scott and Tashard Choice were brought back. Kriag Urbik and Chad Rinehart were tendered. Fred Jacksons contract was extended. Mark Anderson and Dorin Dickerson were acquired via free agency and Tarvaris Jackson was obtained through a trade. Two starters were drafted in Stephon Gilmore and Cordy Glenn. These are the moves that are forgotten about, even among Bills fans. The move that everyone gets excited about, the move that was largely (if not solely) responsible for a nearly 16% increase in season ticket sales since last year was the acquisition of Mario Williams. The reason for the excitement is certainly justified. The now highest paid defender in NFL history will be playing on a defensive line that has Kyle Williams and Marcell Dareus on its interior. Rushing the passer may be the most important part of a defense in todays NFL. The Bills have not had an effective pass rush since 2006, when they had Aaron Schobel. Bills fans are hoping Wannstedt and the front four will be the key to the defenses success this year. Buffalo should be able to handle the Jets base offense in week 1. Mario Williams will likely be matched up against Austin Howard, definitely a favorable scenario for Buffalo. One area the Bills will need to make sure they have a handle on is playing against the wild cat and Tim Tebow. If the Jets start out on the right foot the Bills could potentially be in for a long afternoon. Dustin Keller will certainly be a worry. Buffalos defense will also be tested against the run, which is something they have not defended very well against since 2004.
One of the biggest surprises to some fans heading into week 1 is Buffalos decision to keep only four receivers on the roster. Donald Jones will be starting opposite of Steve Johnson with David Nelson in the slot. Rookie T.J. Graham is the only other wide receiver on the roster. QB/WR Brad Smith has a groin injury and is questionable for week 1. Many suspect that Marcus Easley or Kamar Aiken will be brought up from the practice squad at some point during the season, presumably to take Tyler Thigpens spot on the roster once Tarvaris Jackson is up to speed on the offense. This week against the Jets one of the more intriguing matchups will be Steve Johnson against Darelle Revis. Last season Johnson had 3 receptions for 84 yards against Revis in their first meeting and 8 receptions for 75 yards and a touchdown in the second game... the only touchdown Revis allowed all year to any receiver. Despite Johnsons abillity, with Darelle Revis and Antonio Cromartie on the outside the Bills may have more success working the middle of the field. Scott Chandler, David Nelson and Dorin Dickerson may be targeted often. The key to success for the Buffalo offense this week is balance. Buffalo needs to have a balanced attack of Fred Jackson running the ball to go along with Chan Gaileys spread passing game. The Jets have one of the best defenses in the league. Gailey needs to have a solid game plan and the players need to execute it well.
Week 1 is an extremely important game against a divisional opponent that has beaten the Bills five straight times. The Bills need to maintain discipline and avoid penalties. Special teams needs to do its thing while minimizing mistakes (no missed tackles, no fumbles). As always, the turnover battle will be paramount. I do not foresee a very high scoring game and predict a Buffalo victory: 13-10. Go Bills!

Great write up JB,
Is Austin Howard getting the official start at RT over newly acquired Jason Smith? I don't think I have heard anything either way.

Austin Howard likely to start regular season opener
Rex Ryan: "I've been pleased with Austin Howard. Without question. I would assume that he would be our starting tackle."
The Daily News reported Monday that the team plans to use Smith in a similar role to what it had in mind for Hunter as a sixth-man backup tackle.
Ryans Latest Reclamation Project Stands Out Right Away
Smith will assume Hunter's (Wayne Hunter was traded to St. Louis) role as the swing tackle off the bench, also playing blocking tight end in the jumbo package.

First GDT of the season!
Am really looking forward to seeing the new D. Just wish we didn't have to be everybody else's supply of game tape for whatever the heck they're gonna do with Tebow. Offensively, I hope we feed Freddy at least 20 times & that our TE's get targeted frequently, as I think they both could really make a difference vs. the Jets' D.

Right on, excellent write up.. Lots to look forward mainly the Mario Williams factor with our line. Mario might own Howard and give Sanchez fits!

The Bills will have another wide receiver available for Sunday. Ruvell Martin has come back to take the place of Ron Brooks. Brooks has been placed on IR.

Really looking forward to this game. I think it's definitely winnable, which would be nice because not only would we start off the season with a W, but it would be a divisional W at that.
I think Stevie vs. Revis will be interesting. I think Mario could have a field day against Howard. I'm looking for a big day from Freddy. Stopping the run will be key for us, as I don't think they can beat us through the air.
Prediction - Bills-24 Jets-16

Extensively covered here.
Well I've been breaking my head over this problem for a few days now, we have at my company some rogue employees hooking up their home APs to our network and connecting from the balcony over coffee and smokes. Needless to say we have to stop this, but before we start putting in NAC and whatnot I want to find the exact offices where these douches operate so I can shut them down and report them to management (hehe mess with MY network!)
Trouble is, as much as I walk around with my laptop looking at kismet and airodump's power meters, they are wholly unreliable. Even tried "limiting" my pcmcia (Netgear WPN511) by wrapping it in tin-foil and pointing it at certain directions. still no luck.
Any ideas on how to get this done anyone?
well thanks, i searched and nothing came up (blame the misleading title...), but the thread didnt help me much since i really can't get any of the mentioned equiptment (for geographic/accounting reasons i wont go into).
I was hoping someone had actual experience making a DIY direction-limiter for a pcmcia card w/o a connector (maybe covering it up with tin foil open at one end or the like).
I'm sure its been done.
I've tried it, but the kismet readings im getting are very unreliable and unhelpful.
oh well, back to work. If i make it, i'll share
make a directional antenna, use a pringles can, connect it up to a usb wireless pen, airodump-ng ..... look at the pwr reading and follow the yellow brick road
edit: if u are using a non usb card, then get a pigtail, antenna and connect up. plenty of tutorials on making this all over the place
The best thing to do is checking the ARP tables on your switches and look you should be able to see which port the AP is connected to.
Or you could just dump the mac addresses into this...
There's no fate but what we make for ourselves.
-I already know I cant spel-
I'd just configure a card in the area with the same IP address as the offending router. Since my TCP stack doesn't have any ports or routes open, my machine would throw a RST back for everything. That should be a stealthy way of keeping him shut down without having to find him. And he's likely to throw a few routers away thinking they are junk. I believe Comcast does something like this for P2P.
Try using a directional antenna and card that has reliable SNR. That might get you close. Other than that, geolocation involves too many variables to be of any accuracy.

Woman Dislocates Jaw While Eating Giant Cheeseburger
A British woman will most likely be making full use her fork and knife from now on after dislocating her jaw with a triple-decker cheeseburger. According to "The Mirror," Nicola Peate was trying to sink her teeth into the so-called "Kids in America" burger at Liverpool's Almost Famous restaurant. Peate says she suddenly felt an excruciating pain, and while she tried to laugh it off at first, it eventually became unbearable. She went to the doctor for an X-ray, which revealed the extent of the damage. The doctor manipulated the dislocated jaw back into place and advised Nicola -- who has a syndrome that makes her hyper-flexible joints more prone to dislocation -- to take smaller bites.

Two caveats to the recommendations: All recommendations will span a variety of interests and types of trips, from family vacations to a long weekend with a group of guys. In addition, this will focus exclusively on Lakeland. Not to say that nearby destinations and attractions aren't worthwhile, many are, but this quick reference guide is specific to the Tigers home away from home. There are three different areas we recommend to stay during your trip to Lakeland. They're grouped into the type of lodging experience you're looking for, below.
Luxury: The Terrace Hotel
The Terrace Hotel is situated in downtown Lakeland and is an impressive boutique hotel that caters to those looking for a luxurious, full-service experience. The hotel has been refurbished after originally being built in the 1920's and includes capabilities for event hosting in addition to a full-service dining at the Terrace Grille. Given its prime downtown location, it's also perfectly situated to enjoy the other fine dining downtown, as well as walks through the parks and lakes. Simply put, if you're taking the trip and looking for luxury, the Terrace Hotel is where you should stay.
Entertainment: Lakeside Village
Courtyard Marriott Lakeland and Hampton Inn and Suites: Lakeland South
If you're looking to be entertained when you're not at Joker Marchant Stadium, then staying at one of the two hotels at Lakeside Village is the place for you. Lakeside Village is an outdoor shopping center that includes a variety of shops, restaurants as well as a movie theatre, with the hotels situated within the complex, making everything contained in the mall an easy walk. This is particularly ideal if you're not often interested in exploring for places to eat, as all of the typical food options are available, and you can enjoy an alcoholic beverage or two with the ease of walking back to your room. In addition, there's a Target and Publix right across the street from the mall, providing easy access for any essentials needed while on the trip.
The Basics: The Airport or The Highway
Ramada Lakeland and Hilton Garden Inn Lakeland
If you are looking for a no-frills hotel that can just give you the basics, either the Ramada or HGI will work well for you. The Ramada is conveniently situated right off I-4 (the main highway that runs from Orlando to Tampa), and just a five minute drive from Joker Marchant Stadium, making it perfectly convenient to get to the ballpark, as well as day trips to the beach or the parks in Orlando. The HGI is a bit further from the park, but still within Lakeland, located right next to the airport. It's a bit more self-contained with its own restaurant and bar, along with a pool.
Please note, this is not every lodging partner available in Lakeland and the surrounding areas, just the ones that we've found to be most convenient for stays to our winter home.

Justin Bieber had one of his DEFCON5 Internet days on Tuesday after snaps of him being carried up steps at the Great Wall of China by two bodyguards surfaced.
The 19-year-old is in China on the Asia leg of his Believe tour but can't have failed to notice the wall of criticism the photos sparked, and even included shade from some fans as well as a slew of media monikers — "Emperor," "Elf King," "Lord Joffrey,"Diva" and "Brat," to name just a few.
But there is one person in Bieber's corner, long-standing friend and rumored girlfriend, Jacque Rae Pyles.
The actress-dancer, who met Bieber back in 2009 when they filmed School Gyrls, has spoken out about the snark the singer received over his man-mountain lift at the famous landmark.
Asked by Twitter user @AlexandraAdda9 if she ever felt the urge to defend her superstar buddy from his detractors, Pyles replied:
"Yes, I do feel like I want to defend Justin Bieber, I am his friend & have been for a long time (or anyone that is a kind & giving) he is one of the kindest people I know."

The brunette added: "It makes me sad, when Media & others say unkind things about Justin. But! It tells me they really do not know him, or they are listening to rumors about him & they feel the need to pass along [what] I call 'Sludge.' It is unfortunate that social media feels this way and they talk so badly about Justin."
Expressing the view that Justin was just having fun with his security guards and crew at the Great Wall and that the brouhaha is unwarranted and perhaps engineered, Pyles offered her personal insight on the "Baby" star.
"How crazy is it they are now talking about Justin being carried by his body guards on the Great Wall of China?" she added. "I am very sure they [were] playing around like they always do, Justin is still a kid, playing like a kid, he is funny & very smart."

Ironically, in some ways Jacque's opinion does mesh with the Los Angeles County District Attorney Office's determination of the teen star as "immature."
Prosecutors have declined to charge Bieber over allegations that he threatened a neighbor in his Calabasas, Calif., gated community and spat in the man's general direction after an argument on his property over his alleged speeding.
The "Beauty and A Beat" star also avoided charges over alleged reckless driving on May 27, after security video footage revealed he wasn't driving his Ferrari at the time in question.
Continuing her defense, Pyles also said Justin's critics rarely mention, "All the kind things he does for people, I feel like they do not take the time to find out about his acts of kindness? [Or] do they know & they just want to pick on him?"
"Normally, I would not reply, but I feel it is important for Justin's Fan's & Friends to start letting the media know what he is really like," Jacque concluded.
Pyles recently hit the headlines when she was snapped with Bieber at several high profile events, including New York Fashion Week and boarding a Las Vegas bound private jet with the singer to watch Floyd Mayweather's boxing match against Canelo Alvarez on September 14.
The 19-year-old was also invited on a Bahamas break with Justin and a group of his friends back in August, which she later told Hollywood TV was the "best week" of her life.
Do you agree with Pyles that criticisms of Bieber aren't balanced by the enormous good he does, or do you think his detractors have a point?

I have checked a lot from this forums, but I can not find my answer.
I am using BT3 with my Belkin K7SF5D7050 USB network adapter, I can make it work with BT3 by install it as NDISWARPPER.
However, when I tried to run such as airmon-ng, it show "Monitor mode not supported".
My question is can I use the usb network adapter to hack a wifi network?
Anyone can teach me?
