A Nintendo representative made a comment at the Eurogamer Expo that the Wii U is "19 times as powerful" as the PS3.
Suffice it to say that even with the Wii U being more powerful than current generation consoles, it certainly isn't looking 19 times as powerful at the moment.
I think the representative was exaggerating (which he shouldn't be doing when informing people while having a hands on experience) as 19x times more powerful than anything is ,well, stupidly more powerful
Yea. He likely wasn't being serious. Or else this is going to be a lot of GameCubes/Duct Tape.
@ Mansane
I was being sarcastic dude. Just a joke on a tired old internet meme about Nintendo consoles being built out of multiple Cubes taped together.
what the 19x eludes to is that there will be more than 20 launch games.
I mean that really would make the wii-u 19x more powerful than the ps3.
Do u realise how powerful a console needs to be to be able to make the games graphically abit above current HD consoles at Native 1080p/60fps at launch of games that have been optimized and tweaked for 7 years means its seriously powerful.
Remember the 360 couldnt even keep up with gamecube/xbox right out the box and look how far that came Hmmmmm not very clever you lot ive noticed.
People would be calling them arrogant, among other things.
PR talk is PR talk.
Oh boy. Here comes the backlash.
Practically speaking, I doubt it is "19 times more powerful". Even a top-end PC isn't 19 times more powerful compared to a PS3. Twice as powerful? Absolutely. Three times or four times as powerful? Sure. But 19 times as powerful? No.
And I sincerely doubt the WiiU will have anywhere CLOSE to the power of a modern gaming PC.
I think the problem is fanboys just want to parade their console of choice while trying to shove it in the "competitor's" face, like the good ol' BluRay vs HD-DVD debate, or the "this game runs in native 720p on 360 but not on PS3" debate. And of course, in ImaginationVille, console gamers are still wishing for the day they can buy a console and it will be as powerful as a gaming PC (lol)
***"console gamers are still wishing for the day they can buy a console and it will be as powerful as a gaming PC (lol)"***
No need to wish. When the PS3 and 360 came out in 05/06 you needed to shell $1000+ for a PC that *matched* those consoles same will happen when the PS4 and 720 release. When those consoles release, gamers would essentially be buying a high-end PC at a bargain price. I know this fact is a bit difficult for PC gamers to swallow (lol).
@Outside: WHAT? LOL. That's definitely not true and is certainly not a fact, it's your opinion. And I can tell you from first hand experience of actually physically doing what you said couldn't be done at that time, that you definitely could. Don't spread lies and false facts.
I'll believe it when I see it. At the moment I believe it will only be marginally more powerful.
It is technically correct. Even a lowly GTX 660 is probably 40x the power of the 7800GTX in the PS3. The difference between PC and consoles is that PCs don't use low quality rendering. It looks the same pixel for pixel regardless of what GPU you're running. Rendering without quality loss can take 20x the power and produce only superior sharpness and clarity but not more realism.
Exactly right, when it comes to PC's people dont know their specs.
3x SLI 680s is leagues of powerful over the single 7800gtx.
Add in some powerful 6 core or quad core and yea.
15 ps3s duct taped together in terms of power.
play around on some spec sites
"power levels"
N4G logic, 7800 GTX > 3x 680 gtx's
The Wii U is more powerful than current-gen, no doubt.
But this is bullshit lol. The PS3 and 360 are around 20x more powerful than last gen. Next-gen definitely won't have the same leap that we had this gen, it'd be too damn expensive.
My perception is that the Wii U is 3-4x more powerful than current-gen, with the NextBox and PS4 coming in at around 6-8x more powerful.
I can see that happening, what you said about Wii U being 4x and others being 6-8x that is
Not saying the statement is true. But with new technology regarding efficiency and new features. The processors can easily outweigh last gen by much.
I think the Rep is taking into account how efficient and energy conserving the Wii U is. I don't know if that's a factor tho
Your wrong m8 its about 10 times it needs to be to have 2 additional screens running the same game same graphics at 480p each end of look at trine dc that has 2 gamepad support and handles native HD/60fps and 2 480p/60fps images on gamepads makes it very powerful doing native at 60fps is already squashing the ps3 but to then handle 2 wii resolution images in realtime at 60fps with HD graphics also is super power trust me.
Doubt it's THAT powerful. Hopefully nobody blows this out of proportion.
Its 98 times more powerful and the pad has 124 buttons and a HDMI lead 30 times thicker than the PS3/360 one that runs at 20 times the speed of light. Protective overall is needed to play the wiiU because of the raw power and there is a fire risk, it could burn up into a super nova. Play at your own risk. I can't wait play it, these specs sound amazing. To good to be true.
(Just joking.)
you forgot that the graphics are 40 times better than real life. So good it'll burn your eyes.
the wii-u will have graphics so ultra realistic that real life will need better anti-aliasing to match it.
These Nintendo reps have no relationship with Nintendo other than being on hand to help demo the system at events like this. These are the same reps that tried to tell me, while I was playing the Pikmin 3 demo at Eurogamer, that the game would release this holiday, despite it being confirmed numerous times that it's dropping in Q1 2013 from Nintendo themselves.
This claim is bull, to say the least. Not even the Nextbox and PS4 will be 19x the PS3. These meaningless multipliers need to stop. The proof is in the software after all. Hell even if Wii U was 19x more powerful, why is a simple game like New Super Mario Bros. U running in 720p?
Ridiculous. I'm hyped for the system, but I think people need to ground their expectations a little bit. This won't be the leap we've been waiting for. That won't come until the Nextbox and PS4. You know, and I know it.
Edit: @shock. I wouldn't even put it at 4x current gen. It's got a weaker CPU which was confirmed last month I believe. I'll try to find the source. The 1GB of dedicated RAM is what will really make up the difference, but I wouldn't expect anything that makes the likes of Halo 4 and God of War Ascension look like 1st gen PS2 games in comparison.
Just because it's CPU is clocked lower doesn't mean it's weaker. A Triple Core Broadway clocked at 1.6Ghz could out perform the 3.2Ghz Xenon in a lot of ways. It isn't all about clock speed, if that's what you're talking about.
If the PS4/720 have quad-core CPUs @ 1.5Ghz they won't necessarily be weaker than the Cell/Xenon, that is if you're referring to clock speeds.
Its got a much more powerful cpu no one has said officially the wiiu cpu is weaker it new technology get a grip.
lol @ above "its got a weaker CPU" hahaha
it isent possible sorry
3 - 4x, at best.
Around 3 yes, it's probably the difference between the PS2 and classic Xbox.
it can render the universe and its entire contents in real time then
lmao!!!! i love it! its about 2.5x as powerful & not a single game shows it yet.. maybe nx year some of that power can be seen...
Pfft hahahaha. Aye, and i suppose it can toast my bread as it cuts it too eh?
I'm a Nintendo fan, but whoever made that power claim was trollin like a muhf...besides, the whole "times" or "X" more powerful is bullsh...
Wii U will be easily more powerful, and b/c of its modern parts & design, will be far more efficient, which is why they still can have a smaller shell case. so until someone dissects the internals, that's all we can go by.
Oh boy here we go. We know that it's more powerful than ps3 and 360. But it isn't THAT much more powerful. A wee bit of an exaggeration if you ask me.
Lol, it's about time Nintendo joined the other companies in ridiculous quotes-
Microsoft - "achieving a level of visual detail you really get in Toy Story"
Sony - "PS3 will run 4D"
Nintendo - "WiiU 19x more powerful than PS3"
Only thing different is a Rep with little connection to Nintendo made this ridiculous claim LOL but Nintendo does have their fair share of gaffes too. Maybe even as much as the other two.
That's bullocks. What a load of rubbish! Next gen consoles are not going to be that big of a jump, certainly not over the PS3 anyway. Maybe 8-10X more powerful(still very unlikely), since that is about how powerful current gen pcs are compared to the last generation.
That said, I think that John Carmack said that for every time power increases by 10x, we only generally see a 50% improvement in visual fidelity. Take that with a grain of salt since I can't find the quote.
The whole argument about how powerful a console is to me is almost moot. I'm glad the WiiU has the power of four 360's duct taped together I really am but my favorite video game console is sixteen bits. I used to call it the Super Nintendo!
Hopefully the WiiU is the least powerful video game console of the eighth generation of video game consoles. Historically it would tell us that the WiiU will be the victor of the eighth generation of video game consoles because the least powerful always wins! Good luck next time boys!
Impossible, the games that got represented on the Wii U so far haven't present any real graphical push beyond PS360. I'd take this just as exteme PR talk.
Not saying I don't think it is, but its very hard to believe its 19X as powerful, as the PS3.
I'd like to be proven wrong.
that what i just wrote, where are the games to back up that statement? because as of today i haven't seen nothing that make me believe what he is saying is true lol.
High end PCs aren't even 19 times more powerful than PS3. 3x the power seems realistic.
I think that there's no real way to tell by what margin this thing is more powerful right now. I think we need to see some newer games built for the ground up and for the time being the developers need to get a grasp on the hardware.
With "realistic" I mean what it'd be realistic of Nintendo to aim for considering the price point of the system. I agree it's hard to put a number based on what we know and have seen till now.
I expect Retro to be one of the first to really push it. Hopefully as soon as next year.
Out of all the numbers how did they come up with 19?
Typical PR talk. Your going to see a lot more ridiculous comparisons when the other consoles come out.
I personally thought it would be 6x more powerful than the current consoles, which would mean if the next consoles from Sony and Microsoft were only 5/6x as powerful as their current versions, everything would be pretty even up.
I think the Wii U is going to surprise quite a few people when it comes to power.
LOL. I am a HUGE Nintendo fan, but commmmoooonnnn...No way! I do know that the Wii U is much more powerful than PS3, but I doubt its even 3x more powerful. http://mynintendonews.com/2...
The Wii U can do 1080p on games like Black Ops 2 at 60fps, something that the PS3 could not. That does not make it 19xs more powerful though.
I hope this is true, it would have been nice to see a few launch games taunting this kind of horsepower.
why 19 why not 20 or 18...???
"nnnnn..no,no no its 19 not 20 or 18" "19's the magic number"
"step in to my office"
"Because your fukkin fired"
all the power in my hands 19x the power :D.
Is Paul Ryan a Nintendo rep now? :D
19 times? so my simple question is where is that power? because as of today i haven't seen it yet, i see wii u games and they look a little better i mean slightly better than the ps3, 19 times? stop talking too much show me the games.
19× is stupid but if you look at the launch games of the PS3 and the 360 the graphics certainly weren't as good as both of those consoles can produce today. If you look at the WiiU launch you see games that are already out performing the PS3 and 360 that tells me we will be seeing incredible performance of the WiiU in just a couple of years.
Motorstorm, Heavenly Sword still hold against the best looking games on the ps3, just saying you know.
A guy I met on the street knows a guy that used to work for a taxi driver that had a 4th cousin that was friends with a Gamestop manager and he told me WiiU will have a built in glory hole.
that was immature so you know what that means
Let me guess. reported -bub for immature with a side of disagree?
no point having a 19x more powerful console when there arent amazing games like uncharted ! ill just stick to my ps3 and wii
well if it does black ops 2 in 1920x1080 (2,073,600 pixels) @ 60 frames will 4x aa and the ps3 does black ops 2 in 1024x600 (614,400 pixels) with zero-2x aa, i would put that at roughly 5x the power (with the possibly better aa factored in.
19x, um...lol.....no, 5x, maybe, we'll see
Ok, here are my takes on this:
1. I read the article, then I went to the source article to see the actual quote, and it only quotes the Nintendo rep saying that, without putting absolutely any kind of context here for us. Come on, the Nintendo rep could've meant a lot of things, but yeah, let's just take the "19 times more powerful" statement at face value, because that will get more hits and generate more discussion. Good journalism be damned!
2. Example? Ok, here's one possibility: the Wii U has 2 GB of RAM. One dedicated to the games, the other one to the OS. In comparison, the PS3 has 512, out of which approximately 50 MB are used for the OS, the rest for the games, give or take (not sure about this, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong).
My point here is... if we were to talk strictly about a separate aspect of the console when compared to the PS3, and not the whole of it, you could make a case of it being effectively 19 or 20 times more powerful. Guess what? The Wii U actually has 19/20 times more power than the PS3 when it comes to RAM dedicated to the OS. 1 GB = 20 times more than what the PS3 has (50 MB).
Does this mean the Wii U, as a whole, is 20 times more powerful than the PS3? Hell no. Not even close.
But I could very easily see how a Nintendo representative could've stated something like what I exposed above, then taken his statement, had it completely butchered and taken it out of context, and the final result being something effectist just to get page views. Hell, look! It's becoming a hot topic here at N4G. I wonder why?
Of course, the other possibility could be that the Nintendo rep, effectively, talked stuff out of his ass, and really has little to no clue to what he's talking about! :P
Because, seriously. While I do think the Wii U is probably more powerful than the PS3, is it sensible to believe the difference in power is going to be THAT drastic overall? Again: hell, no. Let's be realistic here. This is just common sense.
Anyway, I still find it strange that the original source doesn't give any context to that statement, just throwing it out like that. So, yeah, I'm taking it all with a HUGE bath of salt.
(Sorry if I have some spelling mistakes, writing with a tablet is a bitch).
That was some darn good reasoning. Bubble up.
If this is true, imagine what the ps4 will be capable of.
Who cares?
I want the Wii U because I want the Wii U...not because I really care about power but because it looks fun.
It's powered by a miniature black hole
Oh well, i want to see that when i'll try a very good game on it...

Well Ive been trying to do a little research into this and LLC stands for Logical Link Control. These packets handle multiplexing and are standard over most data protocols. Basically these guys manage the link between your AP and a client so that multiple streams of data can be moved quickly and efficiently over a single connection.
So when data is created on your computer different programs and protocols and whatnot all stream out their data in different formats. When this data needs to go through a bottleneck such as a network cable or Wifi signal it needs to be combined and translated into a single stream of data that can be understood by other NICs. The LLC packets make sure that everyone is talking in the same language, that the rate of transmission isn't overwhelming the rate of reception, and that the data is being sent is complete and not corrupted by packet loss. Once everything makes it across the bottleneck it can be separated into its individual streams again and processed.
Now the LLCs come in two forms
(Type 1) "Unacknowledged connectionless-mode" This is sort of a broadcast mode where the data has no specific connection, it is simply packed into a readable format and sent out to who ever can intercept it. The LLC makes sure that anyone can read the data with the proper hardware/software
(Type 2) "Connected mode" This is where the data is packed up and sent to a specific connected client (usually encrypted) The LLC makes sure that the data goes to its specific location and not to other places where it shouldn't while still handling the multiplexing.
Please understand that I am a complete newb and that this is simply my understanding of how it works, if I am wrong about this I would love a correction.
For more information id advise checking out "The OSI model" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSI_model
This is the real meat and potatoes of how data is transfered between computers.

Style Secrets to Steal from 40 Years of James Bond
The buzz surrounding the new thriller The Devil's Double would have you believe that its star, Dominic Cooper, plays two characters in the film: Uday Hussein, sadistic son of Saddam, and Latif Yahia, good man turned Uday's body double. This is not entirely accurate. "It became about playing three different people," says the thirty-three-year-old British actor, who appears in nearly every frame of the movie as one character or another. "You have Uday and you have Latif and you have Latif playing Uday," and it's that last part — an actor (Cooper) playing a man (Latif) forced to impersonate a maniac (Uday) — that distinguishes the performance from the stuff of mere Winklevi.
It's all based on a true story — the real Latif Yahia has written two books about his body-double days — which is just one way it differs from Cooper's most famous movie to date: Mamma Mia, in which he played a singing, dancing, glistening side of beef. (Also, Mamma Mia didn't include any gruesome torture. We think.) Show business is perverse. You can study at the most prestigious school (London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art, class of '00) and do ten years of credible movies (Starter for 10,An Education, and especially The History Boys), but when people recognize you, all they want to talk about is whether you used a stunt double in the Jet Ski scene in that Meryl Streep movie. Cooper doesn't seem to mind. "People come up to me all the time and say, 'Mamma Mia is my favorite film, and when my grandmother was really ill, we all watched it together. It made us really happy.' That means a lot."
The Devil's Double, along with a supporting role in the new Captain America: The First Avenger, will further distance Cooper from the Cheese Whiz trappings of that earlier success. And if you ask us, with good reason. Cooper showed up to his Esquire photo shoot having pulled an all-nighter for his next big film, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. He spent eight hours posing when he would have rather been in bed. And he didn't complain. And he looked like this. Hell of an actor.

Lacrosse news straight to your inbox.
Tuesday August 6th, 2013 1:19am
NEW CONCORD, OHIO — Muskingum University has named Nick Gallagher as its first-ever men's lacrosse head coach.
Gallagher arrives at Muskingum after being an assistant coach for the men's lacrosse team at Muhlenberg College in Allentown, Pennsylvania. Since 2010, Gallagher has assisted in all day-to-day operations of the Mule program and served as the offensive coordinator, goalie coach, face-off coach and man-down coach. Under Gallagher's tutelage, nine Mule players were named all-conference and the team achieved three victories over nationally-ranked opponents.
"Muskingum is excited to announce that Nick Gallagher has been hired as its first men's lacrosse coach," said Muskingum Athletic Director Larry Shank. "Nick's experience and deep knowledge of the sport, coupled with his enthusiasm make him a perfect fit at Muskingum. I'm looking forward to Nick building a successful men's lacrosse program."
Prior to Muhlenberg, Gallagher was the assistant men's lacrosse coach at Clark University in Worcester, Massachusetts. He aided in managing the squad to its longest winning streak in school history and assisted in all operations of the NCAA Division III program.
"I'm overwhelmed with excitement and very grateful to be given the opportunity to build Muskingum's men's lacrosse program," said Gallagher. "I think we have a great opportunity to recruit some outstanding student-athletes who will help showcase Muskingum and set the foundation for a national-caliber program."
Gallagher played collegiate lacrosse at Ohio Wesleyan University where he was a four-year letterwinner and captain. He helped lead the Battling Bishops to the 2005 North Coast Athletic Conference championship and to four NCAA Tournament appearances. Gallagher ended his tenure as a three-time all-league honoree. Gallagher graduated from Ohio Wesleyan in 2009 with a bachelor's degree in physical education and a concentration in sports management.

By the time you read this I'll be in San Francisco hanging out for a few days with some of my food blogging friends before the BlogHer Food Blogging Conference gets started. (I'm actually staying in California nearly a week, and although I'm working on some recipes to auto-post while I'm gone, there might be a bit less action than usual around here for a few days.) I made these Low-Sugar and Flourless Zucchini Muffins with Pecans a few weeks ago, and now the garden is winding down, but by the time I get home I'm guessing I'll have at least a few monster zucchini begging to be made into something tasty like this.
I had quite a zucchini muffin baking spree around here, but this version of zucchini muffins is gluten-free, inspired by the Zucchini Bread recipe in Elana's Gluten-Free Almond Flour Cookbook. I used the Honeyville Almond Flour (from Utah!) I learned about from the book, but I wanted to use Splenda, and change the proportions to use more zucchini and less oil for a muffin that was not quite so calorie dense. It took me a few tries to get it right, (and thank you to my friend Karina for the advice of adding an egg white for more rising in gluten-free baking) but I loved the way these muffins turned out.
This liquid mixture is stirred into the almond flour mixture. Stir just enough to barely combine.
Low-Sugar and Flourless Zucchini Muffins with Pecans (Gluten-Free)
(Makes 6 muffins but can easily be doubled, recipe inspired by Zucchini Bread from The Gluten-Free Almond Flour Cookbook by Elena Amsterdam.)
1 cup blanched almond flour (not the same as almond meal)
1/4 tsp. salt (I used fine grind sea salt)
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon (I used Cassia Cinnamon from The Spice House)
1 large egg
1 egg white
1/3 cup Stevia In the Raw Granulated Sweetener, Splenda (or sugar if you don't need the muffins to be low-sugar)
1 T brown sugar (or use 1 T more Splenda if you prefer)
1 T canola oil or grapeseed oil
1 T buttermilk (could probably use milk, but I haven't tried it)
3/4 cup grated raw zucchini, wring out moisture slightly and loosely pack into measuring cup
1/2 cup chopped pecans
Bake muffins about 45 minutes, or until top is browned and toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. (I was surprised they took that long to bake, but the batter is quite moist and dense and I really did bake them for 45 minutes.)

Oye takes pitchers' duel for Travelers
Angels right-hander tops Ventura with seven two-hit frames
By Jonathan Raymond / Special to MLB.com | May 16, 2013 10:14 PM ET
The last time Double-A Arkansas' Matt Oye faced Northwest Arkansas on May 5, it wasn't a pretty sight. The right-hander surrendered eight runs on 10 hits -- including two homers -- in four innings in a loss.
Oye faced off with the Naturals again Thursday night, and this time, he was up against probably the hottest pitcher in the Texas League, Yordano Ventura.
Seven shutout frames later, Oye walked off the mound after thriving against both those challenges.
The right-hander yielded just two hits and a walk, striking out six, to give Arkansas the edge in a 2-0 victory.
He had little margin for error to work with against Ventura, who hadn't allowed a run in his three previous starts and had surrendered just five hits total while striking out 24 in 16 innings. One of those outings was a 10-strikeout, two-hit performance over six scoreless frames in a May 6 win against Arkansas.
On Thursday, the No. 3 Royals prospect allowed two runs on three hits without issuing a walk and striking out nine over six innings against the Travelers.
Oye said it was a satisfying feeling to come out ahead in a duel like that.
"Last time we faced [Ventura], he dominated us. So knowing he was 3-0 coming into the night and coming off my last outing against these guys when I kind of got my tail kicked a bit, I needed to step it up. I felt like I owed them one," he said. "I knew it would be a good pitchers' battle, I was just happy to bring my best. Glad we put up a couple runs in the first to give me a lead to pitch off of."
For Oye (4-2), it was his best start yet this year. The 27-year-old brought his ERA down to 4.69 in 40 1/3 innings in the Texas League. He has struck out 29 and walked 13.
The Washington State University product spent part of Spring Training with the big league club, gaining valuable experience with the Angels, he said.
"I had some success there, and taking that success and coming into the season with that just showed me that I have the ability to get big league hitters out and that my stuff will play," he said. "As a pitcher, as a baseball player, confidence is a huge thing. My big thing is I want to stay humbly confident, stay hungry and I most importantly appreciate the Angels giving me the opportunity to go there and get that experience."
Oye gained some notoriety during the spring when umpire Tim McClelland noticed a white substance on his fingernail during a game and made him cover it up with black marker, in a somewhat surreal scene.
"My middle fingernail had cracked right up near the tip and was bleeding on me," Oye explained. "So one of my trainers showed me a little trick where we take athletic tape, put it in the shape of my fingernail and put super glue on it. You do that three or four times and it makes kind of a fake nail. I hadn't had any problem my first three outings, but in that fourth one Tim McClelland asks, 'What have you got there?' And I said, 'Oh, it's a fake nail.' And they had to come out and color the fingernail."
Oye added he was eventually able to see the event humorously.
"I tell you what, it was some attention that I didn't want and it attracted some interesting feedback on the Internet, but all in all, it's something I can look back at now and laugh. I definitely won't be doing that trick again."
On Thursday, Randal Grichuk and Robbie Widlansky each doubled in a run in the first for the only runs of the game.
After the loss, Ventura (3-1) sports a 1.79 ERA with 56 strikeouts and 14 walks in 40 1/3 innings.

|Home > Guides > Core Developers Guide > Interceptors > Validation Interceptor
This interceptor runs the action through the standard validation framework, which in turn checks the action against any validation rules (found in files such as ActionClass-validation.xml) and adds field-level and action-level error messages (provided that the action implements ValidationAware). This interceptor is often one of the last (or second to last) interceptors applied in a stack, as it assumes that all values have already been set on the action.
This interceptor does nothing if the name of the method being invoked is specified in the excludeMethods parameter. excludeMethods accepts a comma-delimited list of method names. For example, requests to foo!input.action and foo!back.action will be skipped by this interceptor if you set the excludeMethods parameter to "input, back".
The workflow of the action request does not change due to this interceptor. Rather, this interceptor is often used in conjunction with the workflow interceptor.
NOTE: As this method extends off MethodFilterInterceptor, it is capable of
deciding if it is applicable only to selective methods in the action class. See
MethodFilterInterceptor for more info.
There are no known extension points for this interceptor.

Today marks the bicentennial of the official declaration of the War of 1812. While the war itself had little influence on the daily experiences of Princeton students, on occasion, these students would witness soldiers passing through town on their way to the conflict. Some of these encounters were detailed in student correspondence to family members, and these letters also address the public sentiment towards the war and the tumultuous political climate that provided its impetus. A few examples of these writings are highlighted below.
The first excerpt is from a letter written by James Mercer Garnett, Jr., Class of 1814, to his mother, Mary E. Garnett of Pittsville, Virginia. Dated June 16, 1812, two days before President James Madison (a fellow Princetonian, Class of 1771) officially declared war on Great Britain, Garnett wrote his letter while traveling through Washington, D.C. on his way to Princeton. Meanwhile, Congress deliberated Madison's grievances with England, which included British trade restrictions with France, British support of indigenous resistance to American expansionism, impressment of American soldiers in the British Royal Navy, and British seizure of American ships.
As I probably shall not have an opportunity to write, on the way between here and Princeton; I take the opportunity while my Father is writing, to let you know we have got so far safe on our journey….I have not time to say much more now, as we are going to the Cappitol (sic) in a few minutes. Tell Uncle Mercer that the recruiting business goes on very slowly here; & that in stead (sic) of the 17 thousand men that are reported in our neighbourhood to have enlisted; the Secretary at war says there are only between three and five thousand. I fancy all the reports about what the senate have done are false, their doors are still closed; I expect we shall know what they have determined on tomorrow; the general oppinion (sic) about here is that we shall have war, although they say the public sentiment seems to be much against it….
Student Writings and Correspondence Collection (AC334, Box 9)
After several days of deliberation, the House of Representatives voted 79 to 49 for a declaration of war, and the Senate agreed by a vote of 19 to 13. On June 18, 1812, Madison signed this measure into law, becoming the first U.S. President to declare war on another nation.
The following excerpt is from a letter written by Walter Kirkpatrick, Class of 1813, to his cousin, Maria Cobb of Morristown, New Jersey dated July 6, 1812. In the letter, Kirkpatrick addresses the recent declaration of war, and the anticipated effect it will have on the college. He writes:
…War is indeed declared, yet it will not have that effect on this institution which you seemed to imagine it would have, the probability is that we shall continue here as we have done as idle spectators of the scene, since no student is obliged to perform military duty while he is a member of college ….Wednesday last a company of about one hundred soldiers passed through this place on their way to New York – They had with them 12 pieces of cannon, each piece being able to carry a ball of six pounds weight, and men followed at a considerable distance by four very large baggage-wagons guarded by about twenty soldiers…

Yet Another Company Drops Paula Deen
(NEWSER) – Yet another company has dropped Paula Deen in the wake of the Food Network giving her the bootand QVC apparently thinking about doing the same. Smithfield, a major pork company (that was recently purchased by a Chinese company), says it will no longer partner with Deen for her line of "Paula Deen Collection" hams in the wake of her n-word controversy, TMZ reports. "Smithfield is determined to be an ethical food industry leader and it is important that our values and those of our spokespeople are properly aligned," reads a statement from the company. As such, "we are terminating our partnership with Paula Deen." (Hilariously, it was a Smithfield ham Deen was once hit in the face with.)

College Football Recap - Sept. 18

College Football Recap - September 18, 2012
Here's a brief look at the highlights of week three of the college football season, a week which included losses that may have an impact on the national championship landscape as well as victories that have separated the good from the great. The rankings used in this recap are the AP Rankings from prior to the games.
#1 Alabama 52, Arkansas 0: In a match-up that was thought to have a possible impact on not just the SEC title picture, not also the national title picture, Alabama took advantage of Arkansas without star quarterback Tyler Wilson and shut down the Razorbacks with an outstanding defensive performance. #5 Florida St 52, Wake Forest 0: FSU showed its dominance against its first FBS opponent of the year, holding the Demon Deacons to 126 yards while Seminoles' running back Chris Thompson ran for 197 yards on nine carries. #16 TCU 20, Kansas 6: Although its performance was far from perfect due to four turnovers, TCU was more than good enough in picking up a victory in its Big 12 debut as the defense held the Jayhawks scoreless in the second half. #18 Florida 37, #23 Tennessee 20: For the second week in a row, Florida stepped up in the second half on the road, coming back to defeat the Vols for the eighth straight time with quarterback Jeff Driskel and running back Tray Burton scoring the final 24 points of the night. #21 Stanford 21, #2 USC 14: The Cardinal proved that its now four-game winning streak against USC was not just about "Luck," as it shut down quarterback Matt Barkley and the Trojan offense, severely damaging USC's hopes of advancing to Miami in January.
#12 Ohio State 35, California 28: Ohio State's Braxton Miller jumped into the Heisman mix with another sensational outing, passing for 249 yards and a career-high four TDs, to lead the Buckeyes to victory in a tight game over a determined Cal squad. #19 Louisville 39, North Carolina 34: After falling into a deep hole early, North Carolina rallied for 20 fourth-quarter points behind quarterback Bryn Renner, but time ran out on the comeback when Louisville cornerback Andrew Johnson deflected a fourth-down pass in the end zone with 1:53 to go, giving Louisville the win. Utah 24, #25 BYU 21: Utah fans rushed the field three times in this one as BYU had two chances for a game-tying field goal in the final seconds, but one is blocked by Star Lotulelei and the other goes off the post giving the Utes a thrilling victory over their archrivals and also knocking the Cougars out of the Top-25 in the process.
Pittsburgh 35, #13 Virginia Tech 17: After two losses which made Pitt look more than beatable, a different team showed up to take on the Hokies, ending the longest road winning streak in the country on a day when Virginia Tech was just not at its best. #20 Notre Dame 20, #10 Michigan St 3: The Fighting Irish knocked off a top-ten opponent for the first time in seven years as linebacker Manti Te'o had an incredible day, after an unimaginable week in which he lost his grandmother and girlfriend, with 12 tackles, one for a loss, and two pass break-ups.
#4 Oregon 63, Tennessee Tech 14: The Ducks rolled up 652 yards of total offense against FCS Tennessee Tech in another impressive performance, with Marcus Mariota throwing for 308 yards and four TDs and De'Anthony Thomas tallying 222 all-purpose yards. #9 West Virginia 42, James Madison 12: Mountaineers' QB Geno Smith looked great, once again, as he completed 34 of 39 passes for 411 yards to set the school record for career yards passing in a lopsided victory over FCS opponent James Madison. #11 Clemson 41, Furman 7: In a game that posed little threat, Clemson gave FCS Furman almost no chance for a victory as the Tigers gained 498 yards of total offense in the return of star WR Sammy Watkins who fit right in to the already explosive Clemson offense. #24 Arizona 56, South Carolina State 0: After beating Oklahoma State last week and looking forward to #4 Oregon this week, the Wildcats blew past the FCS Bulldogs as their offense ran a school-record 102 plays and had 698 total yards and the defense posted its first shutout in four years.
#7 Georgia 56, Florida Atlantic 20: Despite another slow start, Georgia racked up a school-record 713 yards of total offense in an easy win against Florida Atlantic as Aaron Murray passed for a career-best 342 yards and tallied four TDs - two passing and two rushing. #14 Texas 66, Ole Miss 31: Ole Miss gave up its most points in a game since 1917 as the Longhorns offense was too much behind a near-perfect performance by quarterback David Ash, who threw four touchdowns.#17 Michigan 63, Massachusetts 13: Michigan QB Denard Robinson accounted for four scores and 397 yards of total offense as he led the Wolverines to an easy victory over the Minutemen.
#8 South Carolina 49, UAB 6: Gamecocks' quarterback Connor Shaw reinjured his throwing shoulder, creating much uncertainty for the future, but South Carolina was able to mange without him as they rolled up 501 yards and scored 35 points after Shaw's departure late in the second quarter, defeating UAB in what Coach Spurrier called, "One of the closest 49-6 games I have ever been around." #25 Kansas State 35, North Texas 21: Collin Klein saved the day with another strong performance (230 passing yards, 85 rushing yards, three total TDs) and Tyler Locket tallied a 96-yard kickoff return for a touchdown to hold off North Texas.
#3 LSU 63, Idaho 14: The Tigers easily defeated Idaho for their 40th-straight nonconference victory, the most in the FBS, as LSU continued to show off its plethora of talent on both sides of the ball. #22 UCLA 37, Houston 6: After two games, the Bruins were becoming known for their offense, but against Houston, the defense stole the show as UCLA forced six turnovers and cornerback Sheldon Price tied a school record with three of the Bruins' five interceptions.
David Ash, Texas19-of-23, 326 yards, 4 TDs, 0 INTAsh registers his career-high for passing yards, including scoring tosses of 46 and 55 yards, as the Longhorns score 66 points, the most allowed by Ole Miss since 1917.
David Fales, San Jose State27-of-34, 370 yards, 3 TDs, 0 INTFales records his first 300-yard game and adds three touchdowns, including a key 51-yard strike in the fourth quarter, to lift the Spartans to a 40-20 victory over Colorado State.
Conor Halliday, Washington State26-of-45, 378 yards, 4 TDs, 2 INTJust like last season, Halliday steps up in a reserve role, throwing four touchdown passes in a 35-27 win over UNLV - he now has 13 career TD passes in six games.
Jordan Lynch, Northern Illinois18-of-27, 342 yards, 4 TDs, 1 INTLynch also piles up 125 yards on the ground with an 88-yard TD run, but his biggest play is an eight-yard hook-up with 4:29 to go to lift the Huskies to a 41-40 win over Army on the road.
Johnny Manziel, Texas A&M20-of-36, 294 yards, 4 TDs, 0 INTManziel, who also rushes for 124 yards and two touchdowns, sets the school freshman record for passing yards in a 48-3 rout of SMU.
Bryn Renner, North Carolina26-of-41, 363 yards, 5 TDs, 1 INTAfter the Tar Heels fall into a big first-half hole, Renner rallies them for 20 fourth-quarter points, but a sixth touchdown pass goes off the finger tips of his receiver and Louisville holds on for a 39-34 win.

Topic: Erlotinib?
My father-in-law was just diagnosed with Cholangiocarcenoma. Has anyone ever heard of Erlotinib? I was so thankful for your website!

My father-in-law was just diagnosed with Cholangiocarcenoma. Has anyone ever heard of Erlotinib? I was so thankful for your website!
Thank you!
Hi ! My husband is on erlotinib (common name Tarceva) in his case it is given the tablet once a day. He is doing pretty well on it. He also gets gemzar by infusion once a week. The worst side effect he is getting that is a result of the Tarceva is a rash. Not anything to difficult to deal with, mostly face and scalp. The doc gave him some acne type meds for his face and he uses a shampoo called T-gel that helps his scalp.
My husband is on his second round of gemzar after a two-week break, but he stayed on the tarceva through the break. So far he has had no tumor growth!
I hope this info helps you.
Bob's Wife
Hi Bob's wife,
If you do a search on Tarceva you will see that there are many patients using it now, or patients who have used it in the past. This may help you. There is also a link on the chemo worksheet, that will give you a link to Tarceva so you can get some additional information
My mother started Tarceva (Erlotinib) 3 weeks ago. She takes 150 mg in the morning. I wake her at 7 am to take it along with a pill to prevent nausea and one to prevent acid reflux. She then goes back to sleep until I wake her for breakfast. We found this easier because it has to be taken 1 hour before or 2 hours after eating. Since eating is so difficult already, taking it after breakfast stole precious hours when she could be eating something. So this way is better for her.
They warned us about the terrible face rash or acne that would probably develop. They said it takes about 8 days before it starts. Well, so far, Mom doesn't have that at all. She's perfectly fine in that respect. But the nausea and vomiting worsened some. That could be because the chemo was pulled after not being successful. In any case, we just increased the anti-nausea meds and that stopped the vomiting.
My brother's doctor told him that she has an 80 year old patient who has been taking Tarceva for a year and it has extended her life. If not for Tarceva, she would have passed away long ago. So, I don't know that it works for everyone, but it seems to work for many people based on what I've researched and been told by doctors, our own and published medical articles. I hope it works for Mom but we just won't know yet. My understanding is that it stops the cancer from spreading, and can even shrink some tumors. Some people have had this happen. So that's what we're hoping for too.
My best to you and your father-in-law,
Erlotonib is a drug that is designed to block tumor cell growth by targetting a protein in your body called human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor, or EGFR. EGFR is a protein on the surface of some cancer cells which help the cancer cells to survive and grow.
There is a Phase 2 Trial of Bevacizumab ( and Erlotinib for patients with advanced biliary cancer that is being conducted by the Mayo Clinic and funded by the NCI ( NCI Protocol #7024, P2C Study #MC044G) currently in progress.
How interesting!! My father was just at his first visit at Mayo- met with several specialists. I asked about Tarceva and the oncologist said that there is no research behind this medication and that the side effects are basically horrible. Please let me know more!!

Three really splendid, though quite varied cantatas here. Cantata 131 is a very early work, built after Buxtehude, short sections inter-connecting. It is a very powerful work and one of our favourites. Listen to a sample from the Opening Chorus - From the depths, O Lord, I cry to Thee. The occasion of the work is not stated but the text suggests a Penitential Service. This might be connected with a serious fire which engulfed the town shortly before Bach took up his position there. A major part of the inner city was destroyed and many families were left homeless.
Both 17 and 110 date from Bach's Leipzig years. The Opening Chorus of Cantata 17 was later used by Bach in one of his 'Shorter Masses' BWV 236, a sure sign that Bach considered it one of his best compositions! (Check the Four Shorter Masses on a double CD, BACH 7012).
The Opening Chorus of Cantata 110, a lively Christmas cantata, will be recognized as a derivation of the opening from the Orchestral Suite BWV 1069.
Performances of all three are by the Windsbacher Boys' Choir under their director Hans Thamm.

The federal minimum wage was not enacted during good times, but during the extraordinarily hard times of the Great Depression. When it was established in 1938, the unemployment rate was still 19 percent.
I voted "no" last year to alcohol sales in Campbellsville. I was, and will likely always be, against the sale of alcohol in our town.
I understand the reasons people have given to approve the sale of alcohol in our town, but I honestly think the reasons against it are more convincing and protect the sanctity and peace of our community.
But that's not really what this column is about.
It's been almost a year in the works. And the CKNJ Bookmarks are well on their way.
The Bookmarks are a group of community residents who like to read. And to discuss the books they've read.
Our first book selection was "Marley and Me" by John Grogran. The story of a family and its neurotic dog, the book was a great read and many of us also enjoyed the movie, which was released in December.
I wasn't too proud of my last name this past week. Perhaps for the first time in history, an incoming president had to be sworn in twice. The reason? A guy named Roberts.
Chief Justice John Roberts flubbed the oath of office when swearing in Barack Obama on Tuesday. He tried to correct himself but never recovered.
It was a minor goof, but it was enough to prompt the New York Times to refer to Roberts as the "Oaf of Office" and necessitate a second swearing in.
"But now remains faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love."
-I Corinthians 13:13
We all have someone special in our lives that we think about when we hear the word "love." Perhaps it's our husband or wife, a child, a parent, a boyfriend or girlfriend. Maybe it's a best friend from our kindergarten days or that one person who's been there for us in good times and in bad times.
But have you ever taken the time to tell that person exactly why you love them so much?
On the day he died, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. called his mother to give her his next Sunday's sermon title: "Why America May Go to Hell." In his 1968 call for a Poor People's Campaign, he warned, "America is going to hell if we don't use her vast resources to end poverty and make it possible for all of God's children to have the basic necessities of life."
The troubled global economic climate continues to have an affect on our local economy.
While we are very concerned and must not forget about those who have lost their jobs, Taylor County continues to have the lowest unemployment rate in our labor market area.
Our November 2008 rate was at 5.9 percent. One nearby community is at 9.6 percent. The December 2008 rates will not be released for several more weeks.

A chronic illness is one that requires frequent treatment over a long period of time, like diabetes or heart disease. These kinds of illnesses aren't just costly for patients — they're also a serious drain on the economy.

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. –
There will be a new Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) National Team Indoors champion for 2014 as the 10th-ranked and seventh-seeded Duke women's tennis team downed third-ranked and second-seeded North Carolina (5-2) on Saturday afternoon at the Boar's Head Sports Club in Charlottesville, Va.
The Blue Devils (6-0) advanced to the semifinals and will face sixth-seeded and eighth-ranked California on Sunday, Feb. 9 at 12:00 p.m.
"When you have three tiebreakers going on at once to end the match like that it's tough either way," said Duke head coach
Jamie Ashworth
. "We talked about having to step up in the court and not waiting for something to happen and take control. If we swing and we miss that's fine as long as we are swinging. Anytime we play them here, NCAAs, a friendly match down the street whatever it is, it's always a battle."
In doubles play, Duke cruised to take a 1-0 advantage early, which gave North Carolina a loss in doubles for the first time in dual match action in 2014.
Duke's tandem of
Beatrice Capra
Hanna Mar
dropped the first game before winning five straight on their way to taking a 5-2 advantage. Tenth-ranked Whitney Kay and Caroline Price of North Carolina responded by winning two games, but Duke ended up putting the Tar Heels away, 6-3, on court one.
On court three playing together for the second straight day,
Marianne Jodoin
Annie Mulholland
of Duke fell down, 2-0, to 42nd-ranked Ashley Dai and Laura Slater. The Blue Devils were able to battle back and took a 4-2 lead, after breaking the UNC tandem. Duke closed the doubles point by winning 6-3.
Duke's duo of
Ester Goldfeld
Alyssa Smith
were leading 5-3 on court two against Jamie Loeb and Hayley Carter when the doubles point was clinched.
North Carolina came out in singles and grabbed the lead early on five of the first six courts.
The Tar Heels were able to even the match, 1-1, as fifth-ranked Carter knocked off Duke freshman
Chalena Scholl
, 6-2, 6-2, on court two. Scholl, who is out of Laguna Niguel, Calif., played in only her third career collegiate singles match and dropped to 2-1 overall.
Duke senior
Rachel Kahan
gave the Blue Devils the lead back quickly on court five as the Unionville, Conn., native defeated 125th-ranked Dai, 6-4, 6-2. Kahan found herself down, 3-1, early in the first set but came back to win five out of the next six games to take the first set. She never trailed in the second set on her way to improving to 4-0 on the season.
In the featured match of the day with the Blue Devils' third-ranked Capra against second-ranked Loeb on court one, the Duke standout fell behind, 2-1, early but came back to claim the first set, 6-4. It marked the first set Loeb had dropped since Oct. 1. Capra, who is out of Ellicott City, Md., fell down again in the second set, 3-2, but once again battled back to give Duke a 3-1 advantage with a 6-4, 6-4 win. The victory improved Capra to 17-3 on the season in singles play.
"She played well and she didn't let her loss yesterday affect her today," said Ashworth. "That was a big thing when you have to come out the next day no matter what. She wasn't terribly disappointed with how she played yesterday and there were some little things here and there. She never had had the chance to play Jamie [Loeb] before so I think she went out there focused from the first point. They are definitely two of the better players in the country."
After winning a hard-fought match, 6-4, in the first set on court four, Duke's Goldfeld got behind 4-0 in the second and ended up falling 6-3 to send the match to a tiebreaking third set. On court three and six, Duke's Mar and Smith came back from dropping the first set to send their matches to tiebreakers as well.
With three matches facing tiebreakers to decide the match, Mar came through big for the Blue Devils. A product of Burr Ridge, Ill., Mar came out strong in the tiebreaker as she built a commanding lead and won the clinching point on a fierce forehand down the left side of the court to clinch the 4-2 win for the Blue Devils.
The win by Mar came right after Goldfeld dropped her tiebreaker, 10-6, to Price, which had cut the Blue Devil lead to 3-2.
"They are such a good team and they showed that today and they showed that last year," commented Ashworth. "Our goal on the court was to go on the court and play free. We weren't defending anything so we had nothing to lose. We were hoping they felt a little of that today - that they had something to lose."
Smith, a freshman from Laguna Niguel, Calif., was leading 7-5 in the tiebreaker against Kate Vialle when Mar clinched the Duke win.
California posted a 4-3 win over third-seeded Georgia on Saturday. Other teams advancing to the semifinals were Northwestern and UCLA.

Wednesday Morning, 3 a.m.
Sleepless in Felton . . . sort of. Actually, while I load Blender on the laptop, I'll weigh in during the quiet of a San Lorenzo Valley morning, complete with raccoons and skunks fighting in the near distance.
So while Blender goes through the motions — more on why I'm fiddling with this another time — I keep thinking about an article I read yesterday about how Linux is winning.
It's an interesting perspective, worthy of discussion if one is so inspired. It is written from a corporate standpoint, so those of us at on the front lines of converting people to GNU/Linux may not relate directly. But still . . . at the moment, there aren't any replies to the article. But chances are there will be.
While it doesn't keep me up, there has been some rumblings about the fate of OpenSolaris, where finally a fork — or actually a "spork" — of OpenSolaris has manifested itself in the form of Illumos which is led by Nexenta.
Earlier this week, Joe "Zonker" Brockmeier asks the question, should OpenSolaris die? Zonker makes a compelling argument, complete with a heaping helping of history, for those working on OpenSolaris to come into the Linux fold, or failing that, at least to FreeBSD.
I don't want to be a spoiler, but Zonker concludes toward the end of his blog with this: "It seems to me that it'd be a better world for software freedom and free *nix in general if the Solaris die-hards sucked it up and helped work on Linux. Failing that, FreeBSD. Either way, it'd be an improvement over trying to 'spork' OpenSolaris when the effort would be more effective elsewhere."
My limited experience with OpenSolaris is trying to see if it would work on an old, trusty and ever-present Ultra 10 Sun box in the Redwood Digital office. But since Sun boxes account for even less, percentage-wise, than PowerPC Macs, not even OpenSolaris would make a version for them.
Forgetting your roots: Never a good sign.
Time to throw an old shoe out the door to break up the disagreement between nocturnal creatures.

Justin Bieber is ABSolutely ripped!
Listen to Justin Bieber on iHeartRadio
(Yahoo!) - Justin Bieber is having a serious growth spurt.
The 19-year-old singer, who released his latest single "Heartbreaker" — a breakup anthem thought to be inspired by his split with Selena Gomez — on October 7, shared a particularly muscly photo on Instagram Wednesday.
"Me and my trainer," Justin proudly captioned the pic.
Despite his young age, Bieber's bod has come quite a long way from the lanky string bean he was in his tween years. And he's not afraid to show it off! The pop star regularly posts topless photos of himself, giving the world a first-hand glimpse at his abvolution — as well as his ever-growing tattoo collection!
But, is it just us, or does the rippling eight (!) pack, rock-hard shoulders, and bulging biceps look a little too jacked for the pop star's small frame?
"If you combine his lean body type with the right types of supplements, like Creatine, and Weight Gainer, and other things out there in the market, not necessarily anything illegal like steroids, but a lot of things that you can just get over the counter, what you'll see are pretty quick results with the right type of weight training that look just like the photos he's been posting recently," Joey Gonzalez, celebrity trainer and COO at Barry's Bootcamp, tells omg!, estimating that The Biebs is probably hitting the weights at least four times a week.
As for his young age, Gonzalez says this type of body building isn't anything to be concerned about. "The American Counsel on Exercise says that anyone over the age of 17 is safe to lift weights and strength train. It's definitely something that as a 19-year-old you can get pretty involved with, and in a safe way."
The trainer also suspects Bieber's particularly swole frame may be a result of when the photo was snapped.
"It looks like he [took the photo] right after a session with his trainer," notes Gonzalez. "There is something called a 'muscle pump effect,' that after you lift, your muscles are actually swollen."
What do you think? Can you "belieb" the singer's physical transformation?

The Center for Couples and Family Research at Clark University is a team clinical research effort consisting of faculty, doctoral, and undergraduate students. Our goal is to produce cutting-edge research on intimate relationships and on the development of focused interventions to promote relationship and marital health.
This site offers information for couples interested in participating with us in our work, as well as for others who share the goal of understanding and improving intimate relationships.
The Marriage Checkup is not therapy, but an informational health service that provides confidential, personalized feedback designed to help you keep your relationship on track. The Marriage Checkup was funded by the National Institute for Child Health & Human Development (NICHD). For a limited time, a free Marriage Checkup (MC) is being offered at Clark University for couples who would like to find out more about the health of their marriage. To learn more, click here.
The Marriage Check-Up is also being offered through our partner site at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville, where we are collaborating with a large, community-based, integrative healthcare organization: Cherokee Health Systems. This project is funded by the Administration for Children and Families (ACF), with the goal of implementing the Marriage Checkup within a community healthcare setting in order to reduce the barriers to quality marital healthcare for low-income participants.
We are also working with Lt. Colonel Jeffrey Cigrang and the Air Force on a pilot study implementing the Marriage Checkup for military couples in a primary care setting. Additionally, we are collaborating with Danish researchers at Aarhus University and The Center for Familieudvikling to evaluate a version of the Marriage Checkup in Denmark (called Par-tjek).
Lastly, we are working on the development of a website for use by individuals, couples, and therapists, to make the Marriage Checkup more widely accessible.

Inmate work crew walkaway caught in Beaverton
Held at Washington Co. Jail
BEND, Ore. - An inmate who walked away from a Deer Ridge Correctional Institution work crew at Phil's Trail on Bend's Westside on Tuesday was caught in Beaverton Friday and taken to the Washington County Jail, the state Department of Corrections announced.
Beaverton police arrested Jason Michael Donaldson, 36, Friday morning, after "information led them to his whereabouts," the announcement said. No specifics were included about what tips led to him.
Donaldson was lodged at the county jail in Hillsboro and is awaiting transport back to state custody, the agency said.
Department spokeswoman Elizabeth Craig said Donaldson "likely will lose his minimum (security) custody status," adding that it's "doubtful" he would return to Deer Ridge.
Donaldson walked away Tuesday afternoon from a work crew that was clearing debris from Phil's Trail.
A full-scale investigation led by Oregon State Police ensued, with cooperation from DOC, Deschutes County Sheriff's Office, Bend Police Department, Lane County Sheriff's Office, Eugene Police Department, Lincoln City Police Department, the Lincoln County Interagency Narcotics Team, Portland Police Bureau, Washington County Sheriff's Office, and Beaverton Police Department.
Donaldson, 36, walked away from the work crew between 1:15 p.m. and 1:45 p.m. Tuesday as they worked off Forest Service Road 4604, said Deschutes County sheriff's Lt. Paul Garrison.
Oregon State Police said Donaldson was working on a 10-man crew clearing debris from Phil's Trailhead when staff discovered he was missing.
Donaldson entered DOC custody on Dec. 4, 2012, on three counts of first-degree theft three counts of second-degree burglary and one count of first-degree criminal mischief out of Lane County. His earliest release date is June 20, 2016.
Garrison said it was not known if he has family or friends in the Bend area.
Garrison later said a vehicle had been stolen in the Widgi Creek area, about 1.5 miles away, and last was seen by its owners about 12:30 p.m.
Someone matching Donaldson's description was seen in the Widgi Creek area about an hour later, Garrison said, so there was a "pretty good chance" he stole it.
Donaldson also is known as Dunlap, Duncon, Cotell, Duncan and John Michael Dennis, the lieutenant said.
He's described as having tattoos on his arms, shoulder and right ankle.
Donaldson was living in Junction City last October when he was arrested on burglary charges. Police were arresting him for probation violation when they spotted a candy jar and other items that matched ones taken from a local hardware store, The Tribune News reported.
He also was arrested in August 2011 and booked into the Lane County Jail on first-degree theft and second-degree burglary charges.

GSA Awards Digital Signature Certificates to Two Industry Partners
May 11, 2000
Contact: Eleni Martin
(202) 501-1231
WASHINGTON - The U.S. General Services Administration awarded 500,000 digital signature certificates under its Access Certificates for Electronic Services (ACES) contract to two of its industry partners as part of its program to introduce government agencies to the use of public key infrastructure.
The common public key infrastructure or "PKI" will allow the American public to electronically access privacy-related U.S. Government information and services over the Internet. ACES provides identification, authentication, and non-repudiation via the use of digital signature technology as a means for individuals and businesses to be authenticated when accessing, retrieving, and submitting information in communications with the government.
Under this task order, Digital Signature Trust of Salt Lake City, Utah will issue up to 400,000 certificates and AT&T will issue up to 100,000 over a one-year period. Both companies will act as Certificate Authorities for the certificates, which will be provided to requesting agencies free of issuance costs. Certificates are used to verify the identity of the user and are made available to the public and businesses by participating agencies. The Certificate Authorities, acting as neutral third parties, maintain the identity and public key information for each individual or business. Federal agencies can rely upon the authenticity of the certificates when interfacing with the public and the business sector.
"ACES is the direct result of the Administration's commitment to making the government electronically accessible to every American," said Sandra Bates, Commissioner of GSA's Federal Technology Service. "We are proud of the ACES technology and all its possibilities. Soon every American, who wishes to, will be able to securely communicate and do business with the Federal government over the Internet."
The recent Governmentwide Paperwork Elimination Act has brought new emphasis to providing electronic access to government services. ACES provides the security necessary to make electronic communications a reality.
"We believe that offering these certificates free of issuance costs is a great opportunity to prime the ACES pump," said Marty Wagner, Associate Administrator for Governmentwide Policy (OGP). "We are confident that Federal agencies will quickly see the benefits of providing businesses and the public with a safe and secure way to interact with the government over the Internet. We feel that these 500,000 certificates are just the 'tip of the iceberg' and that someday the use of certificates will be as routine as telephone numbers, only much more secure."
The ACES Customer Advisory Board, an executive level advisory group, will determine the distribution of the certificates based upon agency proposals. While normal ACES transaction fees will apply, the "up-front" costs of the certificates will be waived, providing substantial savings to requesting agencies. For further information regarding ACES and preparation of the proposal requesting certificates, call Helen Chapman, National ACES Marketing Manager, at 202-205-9639 or e-mail her at email@example.com.
