A 17-year-old boy was fatally shot in the head Friday night when several shots were fired near a party in a Victorville neighborhood, San Bernardino County sheriff's officials said Saturday.
The victim was taken to Victor Valley Community Hospital, where he died.
Around 11:30 p.m., deputies were called out to the 16500 block of E Street ,about a block from Eva Dell Park, for reports of several shots being fired in the area, said Cindy Bachman, spokeswoman for the Sheriff's Department. Deputies found the 17-year-old with one gunshot wound.
Deputies noticed a large number of people out in the street and learned there had been a party on E Street, though it wasn't clear if the shooting victim had been attending the gathering or not, authorities said.
There have been no arrests in the case, Bachman said.

Bats To Retire First Number In 33 Year History Of Franchise This Weekend
LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- The Louisville Bats will honor a legend this weekend.
For the first time in the franchise's 33 year history, the team will retire a number when they retire Corky Miller's number eight during a ceremony before Sunday's game. Miller, who has spent 10 seasons in Louisville, last appeared with the Bats in May during a game in Durham, North Carolina.
He says the decision to retire his jersey caught him off guard but says he's appreciative of the decision.
Miller ends his playing career after playing in 548 games, the most in Bats history. Miller is currently working as a coach, working with catchers around the organization.

Easy, what is needed is a systcl configuration and a kernel rebuild,
even to work with SMP. In this machines I also have 4 Gigabit interfaces
and keep more than 200 VPNs simultaneously with a 10Mbit/s internet

I've already thought about this. I've also already started a SF project
called m0n0Patches (not aproved yet, but in meanigs of being). But one
thing I don't really want is to fork this effort into a new project. As
you said M0n0 core team has developed a great package, and they are not
open to new ideias, but this is not sufficient to undeserve their work.
The other thing is that every single patch I wrote to m0n0 was
discarded(ignored, not even commented), even those ones that had not the
purpose of changing m0n0, but let it able to certify ICSA. I had the
oportunity to pay to m0n0 to be ICSA Firewall certified, but with I had
to say to my client to by a netscream firewall, cause m0n0 would never
be ICSA certifiable.
One thing that can really stop this problems is m0n0 having a WELL
DEFINED API to integrate modules, like a new feture in menu to upload
modules. I was figuring out about how to do this, and I can say that it
is not easy, but it is possible (maybe having new filesystems mounted
for each module). And with this API defined and people writing the
modules, the users can chose what they use, all this without a fork in
m0n0 project.

this was what I tried to meant earlier. I really thing m0n0 is cool, but
to be really usefull everywhere it needs some new features.
I will release my patches in more one month. Cause I'm working heavelly
on squid patch to have NTLM integration, and to have a good ACL edition
system. The Internationalization patch is done, what I need are the
translators(anyone?). The snort one is just a copy of one patch that was
posted here aplied to m0n0 1.2b1. The security patch I have is just to
close m0n0 to the ICSA labs certification.

Apply and change a theme
You created slides for your presentation, and now you're thinking about slide design: the background design, font styles, colors, and layouts. You want the slides to have a bit more visual pop. How do you get that? With themes. Themes provide a complete slide design for your presentation.
Apply transitions between slides
Slide transitions are the effects that occur when you move from one slide to the next during an on-screen presentation. Here's how to work with them.
Create speaker notes
Speaker notes help you remember what to say when you present. Print them, or use Presenter view to see your notes, while the audience sees only your slides.
Create your first PowerPoint 2013 presentation
Watch these videos to learn how to use PowerPoint 2013. Get started with the new version to see how to do everyday tasks.
Highlight text and change fonts
Highlight text, user your mouse as a laser pointer when presenting, and change fonts in part or all of your PowerPoint 2013 presentation.
Print slides, notes, or handouts
You've finished creating your presentation, and now you want to print handouts for your audience. PowerPoint gives you several choices: you can print full page slides, multiple slides per page, or slides with your presenter notes or room for the audience to take notes next to the slides. If you want richer formatting, you can use Word to edit content, apply styles, and then print.
Use Presenter view
Watch these videos to learn how to use Presenter view in PowerPoint 2013 to separate what you see from what your audience sees.
Backgrounds in PowerPoint
These videos show you how to add color, textures, pictures, or remove them from a PowerPoint slide or deck. We'll show how to customize your colors and some design tips so the background doesn't overwhelm your presentation. Also, a bit about Master Slides that may help your add or remove a watermark or logo.
Crop a picture to fit a shape
Use the crop tools in PowerPoint to trim and remove unwanted portions of pictures, or to crop a picture to fit a shape.
Group shapes or pictures
Group shapes when you have multiple shapes that you want to treat as a unit. When you're working with multiple pictures, group them to make it easier to position and format them. If you have grouped shapes or pictures and need to change or rearrange items in the group, it's sometimes easiest to ungroup items and then regroup. This course will show you how to do all of these things, and more.
Make the switch to PowerPoint 2013
Watch these videos to make the switch to PowerPoint 2013. Get started with the new version to see how to do everyday tasks.
Webinar: Paper handouts for PowerPoint
Do you print your PowerPoint slides to hand out afterward? We'll show you how to do it, and our guest, author and presentation expert Rick Altman, explains how you can avoid "handout hell," where neither the slides nor the handouts are effective.
Webinar: Using video in PowerPoint
We show you how to embed and play videos in your PowerPoint presentations and in the free PowerPoint Online.
Webinar: Ways to avoid rebuilding PowerPoints over and over
You've got a meeting coming up where several team members will be presenting. So how do you jumble and juggle multiple PowerPoint presentations without reinventing wheels, losing pieces or looking unprofessional? We'll look at a few ways to make a new presentation out of slides you already have, and see how you can take the same slide deck to several meetings and give customized, unique presentations at each one.
Webinar: 5 steps to a better PowerPoint
Do you know the best way to begin with PowerPoint? Do you think about where to sit in a meeting room? We'll show these are other simple steps to make your next presentation do more with less sweat in this webinar.
Working with watermarks
It's known as a watermark — some sort of background image that can appear throughout a PowerPoint presentation. Like a company logo, for example. Use watermarks for identification or branding, or simply as a design or decorative element.
Work with handout masters
When you want to print handouts in PowerPoint, you can choose most of the handout settings in Print view. But for a few handout settings, you need to change the handout master, a page that contains the master layout and properties for handouts.

I'm shooting in the dark here, I haven't done any research but if it's complaining about reading /var/lib/dpkg/status why don't you just try backing up the file and seeing if apt/dpkg recreate it in a manner they'll be happy with.
mv /var/lib/dpkg/status /var/lib/dpkg/status.bak
Run your apt-get or dpkg again and see what happens. If it works then great, if you get a different error then you can always put the file back. (If it won't let you mv the file try sudo mv.)

US Women romp over Ireland, 5-0
Alex Morgan staked the US Women to a 3-0 lead before halftime of Wednesday's 5-0 win over Ireland.
Linda Cuttone/Sports Vue Images
PORTLAND, Ore. ---Alex Morgan scored three goals in the first half and Sydney Leroux added two more in the second as the U.S. Women's National Team rolled to an easy 5-0 win over Ireland in front of 10,092 at Jeld-Wen Field Wednesday night.
It took until the 24th minute for the US to crack the scoreboard, but then the goals came every ten minutes in the first half.
Morgan opened the scoring in the 24th, taking a ball from Heather Mitts, cutting inside and hitting a low shot through traffic that went in off the post.
Ten minutes later, Lauren Cheney slid the ball across the penalty area to Morgan, who hit it past Ireland goalkeeper Emma Byrne from ten yards out.
Morgan completed her hat trick in the 44th minute, with an unassisted goal. After getting a pass from Abby Wambach, Morgan's initial shot was blocked, but she picked up her own rebound and hit a right- footed shot past the Ireland goalkeeper.
Morgan's second-career hat trick upped her total to 27 goals in 2012 and made her just the third U.S. player in history to surpass 25 goals in a calendar year. Abby Wambach scored 31 in 2004, while Michelle Akers holds the record with 39 in 1991.
Morgan's first career hat trick came in the 2012 Algarve Cup in Portugal last March when she scored three goals in the 4-0 victory against Sweden in the third-place match of the tournament.
Leroux, who replaced Megan Rapinoe in the 59th minute, didn't take long to factor into the game, after a formation shift to 4-3-3, with the former UCLA star up front along with Cheney and Amy Rodriguez.
Just three minutes after Leroux entered the game, Heather O'Reilly found her head with a cross, which she easily settled into the net from seven yards out.
Leroux added her second goal in the 81st minute, this time on a set up from Rodriguez. Cheney brought the ball up and cut it across to A-Rod. Rodriguez sent it out wide to Leroux, who one-timed it under Byrne.
The U.S. dominated much of the game, outshooting Ireland 20-3. Hope Solo played the first half without making a save. Nicole Barnhart made one save, late in the game.
After playing Germany to back-to-back ties, the U.S . picked up their fourth win of the post-Olympic Fan Celebration Tour. They face Ireland again on Saturday at the University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Ariz., before concluding the tour with three games against China on December 8 in Detroit, the 12th in Houston and the 15th in Boca Raton, Florida.

New Saints captain Adam Lallana has received the blessing of the club's former skipper, Kelvin Davis .
Saints' return to the Premier League has coincided with Lallana being handed the armband by manager Nigel Adkins .
The 24-year-old midfielder led the side for the first time in Sunday's 3-2 defeat at Manchester City, nearly helping the club record a famous opening-day result against the defending champions.
Academy graduate Lallana, who has been with Saints since the age of 12, cut a proud figure at the Etihad Stadium, particularly as he strode out from the tunnel at the head of the line before kick-off.
And Davis insists there is no one else at the club he would rather see in possession of the armband.
"It's fantastic for Adz," he said. "He's spent a long time at the football club and he's come through the ranks.
"I'm pleased, he's a good lad and a good friend, and I wouldn't wish anyone else in the team to have it."
Davis used to wear the armband himself, before he agreed with ex-manager Alan Pardew that an outfield presence would be more suitable.
The captaincy was given to midfielder Dean Hammond , while Jose Fonte skippered the side on the occasions of his absence.
Now, though, the baton has been passed again.
Davis, who has always retained the role as club captain, believes that Lallana has all the attributes to make both a magnificent leader and player in the Premier League.
"I hope that he can really go on and grow as a player in this league and, certainly, if he's got the armband on while he does it then fantastic," said the keeper.
"I think when you get that armband on it does give you something extra and it certainly gave something extra to Adam (at Manchester City)."
Lallana clocked up his 194th first-team appearance for Saints at the weekend, with Adkins revealing that he felt the time was right to bestow the honour on him.
"It again just epitomises the vision we've got," said the manager.
"He's been with us since the age of 12. He trains so hard every day and I think he's now ready to go and be a leader, and at a young age I'm going to give him the opportunity to go and do that."

The Elantra is Hyundai's entry into the compact car market, battling against household names such as the Honda Civic and the Toyota Corolla, as well as hatchbacks like the Ford Focus and MAZDA3. It is a competitive segment, but the Elantra stands out with its bold styling, roomy five-door GT, high level of equipment and outstanding warranty. Starting at $17,250, the Elantra has plenty of standard features and even manages to top 38 mpg on the highway with its 1.8L engine. A 2.0L offers a big boost in power while sacrificing little in the way of economy.
Compare the 2016 Hyundai Elantra against similar models
For 2016, Hyundai has added a Value Edition trim to the Elantra lineup. The new trim slots in just above the base SE and Hyundai claims it adds $1,000 in standard features for just $550 more than an SE equipped with the Popular Equipment Package. Elsewhere, the Elantra Limited now has push-button start and automatic dual climate control, while the Elantra Sport loses previously standard features, like leather seating (replaced by cloth) and a power sunroof. As a result, the Sport is now $1,350 less than its 2015 predecessor. Finally, the 5-door GT benefits from a subtle exterior upgrade, including a revised grille and new 17-inch wheels.
A vehicle's warranty can significant impact your maintenance costs after you drive off the dealer's lot, and it's important to understand the different parts. Typically, a new car warranty includes a Basic warranty, which covers everything except the wear items such as brakes and tires; and a Drivetrain warranty, that covers all the parts that make the car move, such as the engine and transmission
The NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) provides consumers with vehicle safety information based on independent testing, primarily front and side crash rating results, and more recently rollover ratings, to aid consumers in their vehicle purchase decisions.
Below are pictures of the 2016 Hyundai Elantra. Select the picture you want to view below
Below are the available colors for the 2016 Hyundai Elantra. Select the color to see a close-up view.
For 2016, Hyundai Elantra gets new front and rear styling, with LED lighting on 2016 Elantra Sport and 2016 Elantra Limited models.
We think the Hyundai Elantra is better than the Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla in some ways. The Elantra offers more value than most compacts. The Elantra is good looking, grown up, well liked, pleasant to drive in traffic, and it has a good safety record.
Elantra comes in two body styles: Elantra SE, Sport and Limited models are four-door sedans. Elantra GT models are five-door hatchbacks (see separate New Car Test Drive review). Elantra is called a compact but its interior says mid-size.
The Elantra is an above-average compact. It's as big as a Volkswagen Jetta and drives as well as a Toyota Corolla, but isn't as energetic or engaging as a Ford Focus, and it falls short of the performance of the Jetta and Mazda3.
The standard engine, found in Elantra SE and Elantra Limited, is an efficient 1.8-liter four-cylinder that makes 148 horsepower and 131 pound-feet of torque, and gets an EPA-estimated 28/38 mpg City/Highway. The 1.8-liter offers respectable smoothness and acceleration (after a slow throttle response). There's a choice of 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic.
Elantra Sport comes with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder that makes 173 hp and 154 lb-ft of torque, and it is also available with either a 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic transmission. The 2.0-liter gets an EPA-estimated 28 mpg Combined, compared with 32 mg Combined for the 1.8-liter automatic.
The 2016 Elantra gets five stars from NHTSA and Top Safety Pick from IIHS, with Acceptable in the overlap test and Good in all other tests.
The base 2016 Hyundai Elantra SE comes standard with manual transmission ($17,250), air conditioning and upgraded cloth upholstery; Elantra SE is also available with the automatic ($18,250). A Value Edition model adds convenience features to the SE, including alloy wheels, sunroof, leather wheel and knob, pushbutton start, heated front seats, and tilt-and-telescope steering wheel. Elantra Limited ($21,700) comes with the automatic and upgrades further with climate control, Bluetooth, and other features; and the Ultimate Package ($1800) adds navigation, premium audio and other feartures.
Elantra Sport ($21,250) features the 2.0-liter engine and offers manual or automatic.
We love the energetic daring design of the Elantra. Complex curves swoop toward the rear and gather there, while others push against the flow, bowed forward at the cuts of the doors.
It's a flawless, confident, and sophisticated profile that takes the Korean automaker into the land of fresh thinkers.
The Elantra looks like it's moving. Details are covered, from the crease that runs to the C-pillar to the marker lights that hang over the centers of the front wheels. We like the rising line from the lipped wheelwells to the taillights.
The interior is daring too, just look at that hourglass center console, which is fresh, distinctive, and brilliant where it meets the dashboard. But the interior is also subdued, as the same complex curves are cohesive.
The front seats are shy in bolstering and seat cushioning, but there's good elbow room all over. Legroom in the front is fine for tall persons, and the rear is fine for adults; but headroom is tight, like any compact except maybe the Jetta. Heated rear seats are available as an option, but not a separate heat vent for the rear.
The interior plastics, both hard and soft, are par for the class. There are a lot of useful storage spots. There's a handy module with an auxiliary jack, power point, and USB port. The available leather is supple, perforated in a wave pattern.
It's quieter inside than most small cars, partly because the suspension is soft; at highway speeds it's as quiet as a mid-size car.
The rear seats easily fold forward, nearly flat.
Elantra's 1.8-liter engine has a smooth idle. It stays calm in most of the rev range, unlike larger four-cylinder engines. It's right at home between 2500 and 4000 rpm, especially with the 6-speed automatic, which has an ECO mode that relaxes shift and throttle response, gaining up to 7 percent better fuel mileage.
The Elantra isn't as lively or fun as the Ford Focus or Mazda3. The throttle, transmission and steering just aren't as quick. The electric power steering can be set for three levels of resistance, but none of them sharpen the feedback.
The ride is sporty, not firm, and the brake pedal is firm. The Elantra uses disc brakes front and rear, unlike too many other compacts that use drums on the rear to cut costs.
The Elantra Sport uses the same 2.0-liter engine that's in the Kia Forte, with 23 more horsepower and 25 more foot-pounds of torque than the base sedan. To us, the bigger engine seemed to make more of a difference in engine noise than thrust. The Sport also features stiffer shocks and springs, and a fatter stabilizer bar.
The Elantra wins some and loses some, in its competitive compact field. We think it wins big in styling, and only loses a little in the other areas. It looks like a more expensive sedan. Great value for the price.

As you know, pricing cars is particularly complicated. One of our duties at CarQuotes.com is to help our customers comprehend this process better.
CarQuotes.com Estimated Target Price is for research purposes only. It reflects a typical, negotiated price (before taxes and other customary fees and charges, such as dealer documentation fees, tire and battery disposal fees, license and registration, and where applicable, finance charges) generally found for the vehicle that you selected. The Estimated Target Price is NOT a price quote from CarQuotes.com or any other dealer. If you request a price quote from a dealer via CarQuotes.com displaying an estimated target price, your price may differ.
Invoice is commonly known as the published amount that the dealer paid the manufacturer for the vehicle. This may or may not represent a close relation to the dealer's actual cost, but can be beneficial as a benchmark. This figure is available on many other web sites however CarQuotes.com adds an estimate of local and regional fees from manufacturer to the dealers to this price, which makes it very close to the actual invoice amount for cars at your local dealer.
MSRP is the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price. This is a proposed price only. For most vehicles, the CarQuotes.com price is below this amount. Some high demand cars may be priced over this amount.
The CarQuotes.com Target Price is to be used as a general guide that reflects a typical, market price (before taxes and other customary fees and charges) generally found for the vehicle that you selected. This price is based on our research and estimates of supply and demand in the marketplace. There are many factors that go into the final price of a particular vehicle including local supply and demand. Your final price may differ.
The 'base' price of the vehicle
All options that you select
Base Destination Charges — this is a charge that is added to the base price for every vehicle
Any related Estimated Manufacture to Consumer Cash Rebates. Note: rebates are subject to change at any time. Please make sure to confirm any consumer Cash rebates with your dealer representative at the time of purchase.
Local taxes, license fees and other local fees, such as dealer documentation fees, tire and battery disposal fees, and where applicable, finance charges — these fees are also excluded from Dealer Invoice and MSRP and would be excluded from most advertisements you might see.
Random 'special qualification' rebates — i.e., for new college grads only; for customers trading in a specific type of car. Ask your dealer Representative for more information on 'special qualification' rebates.
The Estimated CarQuotes Dealer Price is an estimate of the pricing presented to CarQuotes members from CarQuotes Authorized Dealers in your area, and is calculated by subtracting an estimated savings value from the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price ("MSRP") as well as a value that relates to invoice for the "ideal vehicle" you configured. Dealer documentation, administrative or similar processing fees are not included in the price estimate. Any vehicle configured on the CarQuotes website is an "ideal vehicle" and may not exist at a CarQuotes Authorized Dealer or any other partner dealer. Each Dealer attempts to match a member's vehicle preferences with the best possible selection from current, in-stock inventory.
The Estimated Savings represents the estimated amount of savings off of MSRP available to you from CarQuotes Dealers for a vehicle consistent with your configured preferences plus any customer incentives currently available. This is also true when it comes to CarQuotes estimated target prices. Your actual savings will depend on several factors including market conditions, the style of vehicle you select, installed options, dealer coverage, and applicable manufacturer incentives. Each dealer sets its own pricing.
In most cases, you must choose between these programs OR a customer rebate or a special manufacturer-to-dealer incentive that may or may not already be included in your CarQuotes.com Target Price. So, your final price may go up if you take advantage of special manufacturer financing. Credit Union members should contact their Credit Union loan department to determine what type of loan and financing options are right for you.
Please note that CarQuotes.com strives to include identified manufacturer incentives within the CarQuotes.com Target Price. CarQuotes.com does not administer these programs, which are subject to and often change without notice. Eligibility for these programs is subject to verification by a licensed auto dealer.
Ask your dealer representative for complete manufacturer program details for your area, and how participation in these programs will affect your price.
The base vehicle is the vehicle before any optional equipment or destination fees have been added. All of the standard features are included in the base vehicle.
This is the total charge for all optional equipment included in the configuration of your virtual vehicle. The Options charge varies depending on whether it is calculated based on the Factory Invoice or MSRP. Options are not included in the base vehicle price and are not considered standard features.
A Regional Fee is the fee a manufacturer charges a dealer to advertise and promote the vehicle in the dealer's market. CarQuotes also includes estimated manufacturer preparation charges (manufacturer charges to the dealer to cover any work done on the car prior to delivering it to the dealership) and fuel charges (the charge for the fuel in the tank when the buyer purchases the vehicle) in this total. CarQuotes attempts to include regional ad fees in its Factory Invoice calculations; other sites at times do not.
These are the amounts that manufacturers charge to deliver a vehicle from the factory to the dealership.
Customer incentives are also commonly known as customer cash or bonus incentives. These incentives are offered by manufacturers as a way of enticing buyers into purchasing a vehicle.
Dealer Invoice price may or may not bear close relation to a dealer's actual cost for the vehicle. In some cases, a cost for a vehicle may be significantly less than the invoice price originally paid for the vehicle. Any difference between invoice price and the dealer's final cost may be caused by many factors including factory refunds, rebates, allowances, or incentives which the manufacturer or distributor may provide to the dealer.

TUCSON, AZ -- Now available from Vending Supply is a line of flat merchandise illustrating the very popular "boy band" One Direction (1D for short). The company reports that it has exclusive worldwide distribution rights to the vendible tattoos.
According to Vending Supply, 1D is a favorite of "tween" and teen girls, a demographic that has driven the band's success -- preorders placed in more than 50 countries propelled its second album ("Take Me Home") to the top of the charts, weeks before it was released.
The new tattoo series includes 12 unique designs, so 1D fans can collect all 12 on their quest to secure their favorite band member's smiling countenance.
"This license is exactly what our customers have been asking for," said Vending Supply business development executive Melissa Mouradian. "These girls will keep plugging coins into the machine until they get the boy they want. Since 1D's second album blew up the charts before it was even released, their U.S. tour has already sold out and there is a 3D movie scheduled to hit the theaters next September, we expect this to be the hottest license in vending for 2013."
Each box of One Direction tattoos contains 300 pieces and comes with a colorful two-sided display card. An online and downloadable catalog showing and describing Vending Supply's vendible tattoos and stickers may be found at vendingsupply.com, and information may be requested by calling the company at (800) 315-9849.

Dan Smyers of Dan + Shay in car accident
Listen to Dan + Shay on iHeartRadio
Dan Smyers, half of country duo Dan + Shay, spent some time in the emergency room after getting into a car accident.
Dan tweeted along with a photo of his busted hand:
Spent the day at the @VUMChealth Emergency Room after a car accident. Missing my guitar already... pic.twitter.com/JzkOGcOzMK
— Dan Smyers (@dansmyers) April 9, 2014
Looks like he won't be play guitar for a while!
The accident comes the same time as the news that their debut album Where It All Began opened at number one on the Billboard Country Albums, with sales of just under 29,000.
With the accomplishment Dan + Shay has also become the first duo in the Soundscan era to debut at the top of the Country Albums list. They're also making a top ten entry on the all-genre Billboard 200, landing at number six.
Where It All Began features the hit "19 You + Me." The song is at number eleven on the Hot Country Songs chart and number 12 on the Country Airplay list, and still rising on both charts.
Get well soon Dan!

Captions: Austin Hironaka
Looks like Austin Hironaka is about to sign off from his first Dispatch mission to Japan. Don't fret though because we see in the last post that he has met up with Java Fernandez and the Salomon Team. Rumor has it that Java will be firing over a few Dispatches himself from the land of the rising sun. We just haven't figured what to call 'em. We are torn between "Dispatches: Mexican Export" and "Dispatches: Indian Import." Could go either way. If we have SNOWBOARDER Sr. Oli Gagnon work with Java on 'em we'll just have to go with "Dispatches: Quebexippon".

From Waltz yesterday:
Just dropped by to say farewell - CiF has finally banned me. I put the cat's nine lives to shame there long ago but one day it had to end ... Keep up the good work, Mr. or Ms. Heresiarch.
Has Waltz been banned from CIF? Was it all a mistake, or have the CIF moderators descended to new Stalinist tactics to stifle dissent? They seem to have been busier than usual in the past few days. Threads such as this one from Seumas Milne have been distorted out of all recognition by deletions. Is that just keeping a watch on hate-speech, or is it an attempt to define what is, or is not, a sayable opinion or a thinkable thought?
I'm re-posting all Waltz-related comments to this thread. Feel free to say what you like, about her, about what you think might have happened, and about CIF and net censorship in general. I'm not a moderator.
UPDATE: Waltz wasn't banned after all, say the Mods. It's just a software glitch at her end. Allegedly. (See comment). Still, the Mods should be asking themselves why we believed it.
UPDATE2 (19/7/08) Waltz says:
I don't think it's anything to do with my browser, which has always worked perfectly with CiF until one week ago. Plus I tried posting from my office at work yesterday and couldn't do so from there either. So I think I have in fact been banned, regardless of CiF's claim that I haven't been.
What on earth is going on?
UPDATE3 (21/7/08) Waltz is back!
I'm able to post to CiF again - my brother did a system restore on my laptop and it seems to have solved whatever the problem was.
No conspiracy after all. Still, it was an entertaining thread.

Be more specific on description...
By Hurting feet
from San Antonio,Texas
Didn't make clear that these came as a pair. Said that it could be worn on either foot. So I ordered two in order to get a pair and ended up with two pair. However; customer service was great at correcting the shipping charge. I will keep both pair pair because this product does help.
By Carol
from The Dalles, Or
This heal wrap has straps that go up and around the ankle. It is not made well so is uncomfortable. I do think it would help if the part going around the ankle was better designed and it is too small for someone with a larger ankle.....and I don't mean huge. Also I have a smaller foot and it seems too large for the foot area.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Helpful but not perfect
By Ginia
from Baltimore, MD
The product has been effective in easing my plantar fasciitis heal pain during the past couple of days of wear. However, I am unhappy with the quality of the manufacture. My complaint has to do with the construction of the left wrap which is slightly different from that of the right wrap. Where the right wrap fits tightly; the left flops on my foot and the velcro is slightly misplaced. The two wraps are not mirrors of each other. I suggest the manufacture have inspectors to approve the wraps before boxing and delivery!
A real pain reliever!
By Pain in the heal!
from Albuquerque, NM
Worth the money for the great relief of pain. The velcro does hit my skin a little and itches, but it's worth it. I've already recommended it to 2 other friends.
Really relieves the pain

Didn't fit properly
By Bert the Golfer

Even the large size didn't fit my 11+ male foot. Arch support was too far to the back and was painful to walk on. Easy to put on.

If you become a conservatee, you do not necessarily lose the right to take part in important decisions affecting your life or your property. As a conservatee, you have the right to be treated with understanding and respect and to have your wishes considered. You have all basic human rights as well, and the right to be well cared for by the conservator.
You also have the right to ask questions and to express concerns and complaints about the conservatorship and his or her actions as conservator. You can ask the court to review the conservator's handling of the conservatorship if you and the conservator cannot work out a dispute between you.
Even if you do not take direct action to have the court review the conservator's actions, the court itself will periodically send a person, called a court investigator, to see you, to ask you about your situation and desires, and to advise you of your rights. The court may also appoint a lawyer to represent you.
As a conservatee, you generally keep the right to:
If you, as the conservatee, are a patient in a board-and-care home, nursing home, or other care facility, the Patient's Bill of Rights applies. The Patient's Bill of Rights is a state law that lists a patient's personal, social, financial, and medical rights in the facility, including the right to privacy. As a patient, you must be given a copy of this Bill of Rights when you are admitted to the facility, and it must be posted in an obvious place in the facility.
As a conservatee, you have the right to be represented by a lawyer. For certain types of issues, the law requires that the court appoint a lawyer for you if you ask for one, or if the court believes the appointment would be helpful or is necessary to protect your interests. In those cases, the judge will decide if you can afford to pay the lawyer, either fully or a specified portion of the fees. If so, the lawyer fees will be paid by the conservatorship estate. Any portion of the lawyer's fees and costs that you cannot afford to pay are paid by the county.
The lawyer appointed by the court usually prepares and files a written report, including his or her recommendations for resolution of the matter before the court. Sometimes your conservator may disagree with a position being taken by your lawyer. If so, it may be possible to reach a compromise to settle the disagreement. If everyone involved cannot agree to a compromise, a judge may have to decide what is best. Recommendations by your court-appointed counsel are usually given great weight and consideration by the court.
Setting up a conservatorship is a long and complex process. Here is a brief description of the steps to give you an idea of what you should expect.
The court investigator gives neutral information about the case to the judge. He or she will talk to you throughout the court process, and you will have a chance to tell him or her about your concerns and wishes and to ask any questions you may have.
The investigator will call the proposed conservator and set up a visit with him or her and you. Sometimes, he or she will meet with both of you more than once. The investigator must also interview your relatives.
The court investigator will meet with you in a private interview and:
After talking with you and the proposed conservator, and talking with your relatives about why the proposed conservatorship is needed (or not), the court investigator will write a confidential report for the court. The investigator will then send a copy of the report to the conservator and the conservator's lawyer, to you and your lawyer, to your spouse or domestic partner, and to your parents and children. In this report, the investigator will make recommendations to the judge about the case.
If a conservator is appointed, the court investigator stays involved. Six months after the appointment, the investigator will review the case again to make sure the conservator is fulfilling his or her responsibilities to you and that your rights are being protected. The investigator will review the case again after another 6 months, and every 12 months after that.
If the investigator thinks the conservator is acting in your best interests and the court agrees, the court can reduce the scope of the reports the investigator must write and file in later reviews, but the investigator must make a personal visit and interview you and must prepare and file at least a short status report every year after the first year. The court may order additional reviews as necessary or helpful to protect you.
If the investigator thinks there may be a problem after one of these reviews, he or she may ask the judge to appoint a lawyer for you. This may start the legal process to sanction or remove the conservator and either appoint someone else as successor conservator or end the conservatorship.
The investigator will also visit you and make a report if:
The court investigator will explain these situations to you. He or she will then make recommendations to the court in a written report that will also be mailed to the conservator, your lawyer, and your spouse or domestic partner and other close relatives.
A conservatorship is usually a permanent arrangement. But, in certain cases, a conservatorship may be ended or the conservator may be changed.
In these cases, you, the conservator, a relative or friend of yours, or some other interested person can ask the court to end the conservatorship. The court may ask the court investigator to evaluate the case and your condition to see if the conservatorship should be ended. If the judge ends the conservatorship, the conservator will be released from his or her duties and you will no longer be under a conservatorship.
There are other reasons why a conservatorship may end, like the conservator resigns as conservator in your case, the conservator dies, or you have no more assets (for a conservatorship of the estate). If you have no more assets and a conservatorship of the estate is ended for that reason, a conservatorship of the person will continue if you require that care and protection.

But get this, so... the guy who is all over girls and finger bangs a girl in the toilets passes the 'Commitment' test? sorry?!

Creative people say NO more than other people .... interesting reading.
It seems we are more aware of how much time we have left, how we should use our time and how easily it can be wasted.
I know I am hyper aware of how quickly it passes and how 'musts' turn into 'should haves' .....
What do you all think of this?
This is so interesting! I have found that since I started pottery and now jewelry making, I say "No" all of the time. Right now, I am dreading a wedding 5 hours away in 2 weeks because I will lose the whole weekend, and I already lose the weekdays because of my full time job. To me, unless it is something inspirational, it is just not interesting to me. I am 51, and getting such a late start already, to spend time on things I wasted time on for years already just doesn't happen anymore. One friend even told me I am not fun anymore! I don't know, I am having lots of fun, just not out partying with them!

2 brothers dead after car accident in Huger
WCBD-TV: News, Weather, and Sports for Charleston, SC
From our News Partners at WCBD-TV:
Two Berkeley County brothers are dead tonight after a fatal car accident in Huger.
At about 6:30 Sunday evening, two brothers were riding in a Ford Focus down North Hampton Road, a forestry road that crosses Highway 41.
23 year old Chris Bracewell was driving the car and his 20 year old brother Jonathan Bracewell was in the car as a passenger.
The highway patrol says the vehicle failed to stop for the stop sign, and it was hit by another vehicle that was driving down highway 41.
Four people were in the second vehicle. They were transported to the hospital.
Both of the Bracewell brothers died at the scene. The deaths were ruled an accident by the coroner.
Everyone in both vehicles were wearing their seatbelts.
A wreath was on the door at Judy's Automotive in Moncks Corner Monday afternoon. Chris Bracewell worked there, and the shop was closed Monday in honor of him.
The accident is under investigation by the Berkeley County Coroner's Office and the SC Highway Patrol.

After Joe's garage organization project
I.D. bins the smart way.
Think about how you'd like to identify the contents of each storage bin. Some people use adhesive labels or write with markers directly on the bins. The best system lets you make changes easily. We like the adhesive storage pouches that come with cardboard inserts (or you can just use index cards). Changing the label is as easy as slipping a new card into the pouch.
Joe is the set carpenter for The Family Handyman magazine. He's also a husband, new father, dog owner, hunter, pinball wizard, pool shark, fisherman and the proud owner of a brand new garage, which he built himself. But Joe had a problem— he's got a lot of stuff, and he needed a way to organize it fast (because he'd rather be hunting!). But he has almost no time (see the above list for why) and almost no cash (babies and garages don't come cheap). So Joe's quick, easy-on-the-wallet solution was to build simple shelves that could hold plastic storage bins. He built the whole project in less than a day, and it cost him $300 for 26 ft. of shelving (the bins were extra). His wife thinks he's a genius and so do we. (Joe's just happy he can go hunting.)
Build and assemble it quickly
Mark rail and leg parts after cutting your parts to length. (See Additional Information for a materials list and project illustration with measurements.)
Put the frame together
Keep things square by assembling the frame on top of a piece of plywood.
Install the shelves
A helper makes installing the shelves a lot easier.
Screw the unit to the wall
Photo 4: Fasten the shelves to the wall
Screw each unit to the wall through the top rail using construction screws (GRK is one brand) spaced every second or third stud. This shelf unit is really sturdy. But make it ultra secure by screwing the units together through the front legs. Shim the legs if your floor is sloped or uneven.
Screw the unit to the wall through the top rail every second or third stud to make it very stable.
Install the middle cleats for the sliding bins
Hanging the bins from cleats means you don't have to stack them on top of each other and you can easily slide them in and out.
Joe's Tips
Each storage unit is basically two frames tied together with plywood shelves. Buy your bins first so you can customize the height and depth of each shelf space. Remember to leave enough clearance space in front of your shelving units to open your car doors.
Small bins are great for storing screws, glue and painting supplies in the middle bays of each unit. The best bins for hanging are those with snap- lock lids. They allow you to hang heavier loads without worrying that the lid will come off.
The fussiest measurements are those for the center bay of smaller bins. If your width measurements are off by a quarter inch, the bins won't sit squarely between the cleats or will be too tight to slide easily.
If your garage floor sometimes gets wet, nail plastic feet to the bottom of the legs. (A set of four nail-on plastic feet costs $3 at home centers.)
You can paint the wood to give it a classy look or leave it bare. Painting it before you put it together is a lot easier than painting it once it's assembled.

Apparently Rachel McAdams was supposed to be on the cover as well.
We hear flesh-obsessed designer Tom Ford's gig as guest editor of Vanity Fair's Hollywood Issue recently hit a kink. Sources close to the glossy say demure rising starlet Rachel McAdams stormed out of a November cover shoot for the annual industry mash note—and fired her publicist—after learning Ford expected her to pose nude.
According to mag insiders, Ford had prearranged with McAdam's rep, Wolf Kasteller's Ame Van Iden, for the in-demand Red Eye actress to appear naked in a group portrait of Hollywood's breathtaking beauties-of-the-moment, alongside Keira Knightley, Scarlett Johansson, and others. (We presume the shoot was conceived along the tasteful lines of Herb Ritts' iconic 1989 supermodel ensemble, "Stephanie Cindy Christy Tatjana Naomi", but considering Ford's involvement it's possible to imagine a raunchier scenario.)
Unfortunately for legions of mouth-breathing McAdams fans, we're told Van Iden neglected to brief her family-friendly charge—who may have been the only actress in Wedding Crashers to keep all her clothes on—about the concept beforehand. When she arrived on the L.A. set and found out what Ford had in mind, we're told she turned tail and promptly fired Van Iden.
"Every magazine wants her on their cover and thinks she's gonna be huge, so she can get away with being picky," says a Condé Nast insider. "But everyone's really impressed that she stood up for herself. It's kind of amazing, actually."
While the 29-year-old actress's chaste retreat suggests she has a tad more dignity than the average Hollywood climber, it's odd she was so blindsided by Ford's request. After all, the former Gucci designer has previously told reporters the "entire issue would be naked," and his recent work has certainly showcased his fondness for letting it all hang out—he posed au naturel for a 22-page spread in last month's W, his new line of cosmetics for Estee Lauder is called Amber Nude, his ad campaign for the fragrance Youth Dew features a naked Carolyn Murphy, and an advertisement he produced for a new line of sunglasses reportedly features porn stars whom he says were paid "to have sex on set."
Neither Ford nor VF spokeswoman Beth Kseniak returned calls about the incident. McAdam's manager, Shelley Browning, confirmed that McAdams "presently does not have a publicist," but referred questions about the cover shoot to the magazine. Van Iden herself did not return calls.

This Tom Ford guy has a strange obsession with buttcrack
by Mitch Marconi
Feb 8, 2006
Former Gucci and Yves St. Laurent designer Tom Ford reportedly fought with Vanity Fair editors over Angelina Jolie's naked rear-end - after persuading Brad Pitt's girlfriend to disrobe for an Annie Liebovitz Hollywood stars layout.
Ford reportedly accepted the role of guest artistic director for the upcoming issue and reportedly began encouraging/soliciting his famous friends to strip for the photo shoot.
"A lot of women actually, a couple of men, too, wanted to take their clothes off. These are such beautiful people, beautiful women, and who doesn't want to see a bit of them."
However, Ford was upset when he realized the editors were trying to cover up Angelina Jolie's naked buttocks.
He reveals, "The picture kept getting cropped and I finally had to stick a Post-It on it in the planning room: 'Do not touch, leave Angelina's buttcrack.'"
I don't know about you 'butt' [pun intended] I'm sure glad Tom had the balls to demand what's right. Angelina Jolie has one of the finest dumpers on the planet and I thank God for good men like Tom Ford who are looking out for us all. Brad Pitt is one lucky man.

Alex Castellanos: Obama the Open Source president
CNN analyst Alex Castellanos — one of the Republican pundits on a rather large team of political experts on hand on Election Day — made both a very interesting and poignant point about the incoming presidency and the possibility of its "open source" nature.
I was working at the Sentinel on the news desk racing to get local election stories on the page when I just about fell out of my chair at what you'll see and hear around 0:37 when Castellanos mentioned "The Cathedral and the Bazaar" and follows up with making a very good case for a changing paradigm that we already know and adhere to.
An open source future for America — is that what Castellanos is saying here? Decide for yourself.

<f V a p Indian Sculpture may go as result of § MCLU complaints 2 Indian leaders propose school district for Indians in Twin Cities St Paul, Minn. (AP)- A group of American Indian educators will ask the Minnesota Legislature for $2 million to establish an Indian-controlled school district in the Twin Cities area. The 15-member Indian School Council, which was created last year by the Legislature to investigate the need for an Indian-controlled school, said Thursday the $2 million will start a school to serve the Twin Cities area's approximately 3,000 Indian students. Council members said such a school is necessary because public education has failed American Indians in Minnesota and around the country. "The dismal statistics cry out for a new approach," said Donald Allery, council chairman and a consultant to the Red Lake Chippewa band. According to the council's report, American Indians have the lowest graduation rate in Minnesota, with about half of Indian ninth-grade students continuing through high school to graduation. The average graduation rate for white Minnesota students is more than 90 percent. By contrast, the council reported that Indian-controlled schools on reservations in Wisconsin and Arizona and an Indian magnet public school in Buffalo, N.Y., have reduced dropout rates and increased graduation rates. Enrollment in a Twin Cities Indian-controlled school would be voluntary and non-Indian students would be welcome, the group said. The school would open by the fall of 1990. The school's location is not set, but the site is expected to be in either Minneapolis or St Paul. Minnesota's American Indian population is 58 percent urban; 45 percent of the urban American Indians live in the Twin Cities area, the group reported. The $2 million would pay for the two-year start-up costs, the group said. The district would receive funding thereafter through state aid formulas in a way similar to the state's open enrollment policy, Allery said. Audit: irregularities in Nett Lake school district property St. Paul (AP)- A gas dryer, color television set and videocassette recorder purchased with Nett Lake school district money were found in the home of Superintendent Dennis Angell, according to an audit report by State Auditor Ame Carlson. Carlson said Friday that his auditors became suspicious during their regular annual financial and compliance audit that irregularities involving the accountability, safeguarding and possible misuse of school assets had occurred. A separate investigation was launched, he said, and auditors and officers from the Virginia Police Department recovered the three pieces of property from Angell's residence in Virginia after obtaining a search warrant. "We conclude that Mr. Angell, without legal authority and without the knowledge and consent of the School Board, used school funds to purchase for personal use the previously listed items," Carlson said in a letter to Julie Whitmore of Nett Lake, chairperson of the school board. Carlson encouraged the school board to "take immediate and appropriate disciplinary action." Whitmore said in a telephone interview, "I have no comment." As required by law, Carlson said he was forwarding a copy of the report to the St. Louis County attorney. Angell's telephone line was busy during several attempts to contact him for comment Friday. * Nett Lake is about 70 miles northwest of Virginia in northern Minnesota. The school district operates classes for about 120 children in kindergarten through die sixth grade, according to the report. Minnesota Individual Income Tax change for Native Americans According to the Minnesota Department of Revenue, Minnesota Indians living on a reservation and earning income from sources both on and off the reservation, must fill out schedule M-1NR to make sure they pay tax only on income earned from sources off the reservation. For forms and further information, call 296-3781 (metro area) or 1-800-652-9094 (elswhere in Minnesota). & i£' Indian p - a Student g Writing e 6 Fifty Cents Founded in 1988 Copyright, the Ojibwe News, 1989 m Februarys, 1989 i A Weekly Publication Despite the recent cold weather, more than 2,000 people attended the BSU Council of Indian Students' 16th Annual Traditional Pow Wow this past weekend. The Sunday evening feast also drew a fairly large crowd of about 1,500 people. Twenty-two drum groups and 300 dancers were in attendance to perform for the crowd. Photo by Mark Boswell Bemidji, Minnesota 56601 Jourdain's tax trial delayed for third time By William Lawrence Publisher The News recently learned that the tax trial of Red Lake tribal chairman, Roger A. Jourdain, has been delayed for the third time and is now scheduled for mid-May in Duluth, Minn. Phone calls by the News to Brent Peterson, Minnesota tax court administrator, and Tom O'Hearn, Minnesota assistant attorney general, received inconsistent replies as to the reason for thev delay. Initially, O'Hearn said the rescheduled date was set by the court to fit into their calendar, and that there was no other reason for the delay. But when the News called Peterson, he said that the delay was made at the request of the parties for their convenience. He also told the News to call the Attorney General's office and tell them that the trial could be set within the next few days if they are ready to try the car,i. Upon calling O'Hearn h j<^- fV>e then stated that he, and Jouidam>''& attorney James Bodin, were still trying to define the issues to avoid calling so many witnesses. According to State of Minnesota tax court documents, Jourdain is charged with owing the state $81,000 in back taxes, penalties and interest for allegedly failing to file state income tax returns from 1979 to 1985; coinciding with the tithe he apparently moved of the reservation. Jourdain was originally schedule to appear in court on the matter Oct. 11, 1988. However, Jourdain was hospitalized in Bemidji for an apparent heart attack at the time. The trial was then rescheduled for D^c. 20, 1988, but again, the trial was rescheduled. The News was unable to learn whether Jourdain has been assessed accrue interest on the tax debt since Jan. 1987, or whether he filed returns for 1986 and 1987. Accusations linger after changeover at Pine Point School ¥"%- - t, * * r^_ __-- —~ II VJ 11 /-* Lr- r* V* rs rt-rt ■■-*.»■*-* irs *-vsV nrls * aU in j-^ \r 4- 1-s mrt. rt. «ss V% rt r, rt. «* By Mark Boswell Assistant Editor Spelling assignments, math quizzes and homework are the important worries that should be considered during this seemingly never-ending winter. But, at Pine Point School, unfounded accusations and finger-pointing seem to be the rule of the day. At least, that is, for the adults. The Pine Point School in Ponsford is again in turmoil after allegations of misallocation of funds, lack of proper procedures in carrying out school business, and changes in staffing. These allegations have been made public in a series of letters to the Pine Point School Board and the Ponsford community by Jerome M. Buckanaga and Erma J. Vizenor. Buckanaga left his position as principal of the Pine Point School after allegations that he mismanaged the school and supposedly went on "a spree of destruction". These allegations, directed at him by Vizenor, graduate student at Harvard University in Cambridge, Mass. and current School Administrator, were made by her in a letter sent to the Pine Point School Board and the general community dated Jan. 27. Buckanaga argues that these allegations are shrouding the truth in the matter. "I think she's.blowing.a lot of smoke in doing this," said Buckanaga in a telephone interview Monday. Buckanaga's attorney, Ralph Smith, had sent out a letter to the community the previous week illustrating his (Buckanaga's) position in the argument. Other employees at the school agree with Buckanaga. Buckanaga left his position as Principal of Pine Point School in Ponsford as of January 20. He is now the Director of the Red School- House in St. Paul, another school designed for the educational needs of Native American children. Vizenor, was hired as the Pine Point School Administrator in August of 1984. She is currently on sabbatical leave and is attending Harvard University. School Board member Albert ■■■■■■■ •" »«I"a»s».»sssss.s.aaaaaaassi "All it sounds to me is like a bunch of egos ... trying to pull weight. My concern Is the school, the kids in that school, and the people who work there." -Vem WoK. acting principal Basswood Jr. stated that a complete review will occur after the school year is out in May. He also stated that, according to records, the school should have enough money to complete the current 1988-1989 school year. Buckanaga alleges that renovation work done on the north end of the old Pine Point School was done without the proper consent and procedures set down in school guidelines. According to figures made available by Vizenor, the renovation project, which took three phases, was accomplished for $17,436.43, and was completely accounted for. Her letter explained that bids were requested from two contractors, but only one replied. Employees at the school stated that the contractors employed in the work project were close relatives of Vizenor. Buckanaga said that, despite the documentation that Vizenor provided in her open letter, the work was done without proper consent of the school board. "Sealed bids must be taken for anything over $15,000, this wasn't done. It was also done without the (school) board's okay." Some confusion seems to lie in the fact that bidding may, or may not have been necessary in the first place for such a project. Buckanaga further stated that Vizenor had been implemental in hiring Vem Wolf as acting principal of the school. "Wolf isn't at all qualified for the position," said Buckanaga. George B. Droubie, Education Director at the Minnesota Department of Education agrees with Buckanga. In a letter dated February 2, he stated, "Mr. Vern Wolf is not licenced or approved to serve as an elementary principal." Wolf defends his position as acting principal at the school by stating, "I'm not trying to hide anything here. We're having a hard time just filling positions here at the school. We did document the 'Hardship Clause' in this. And all we're doing is trying to keep the school running until June when our budget comes up in the legislature." "We're just trying to help the school survive," added Wolf. Basswood stated that Wolf can School carries on at Pine Point, legally be considered the principal because of the "Hardship Exemptions" outlined in a list of information pertaining to administrative licensure that was made available by Droubie. District III Representative to the RTC, Dan Stevens, said the Tribal Council is behind whatever decisions the Pine Point School Board makes in their future decisions concerning the school. He also added, "there will be no take over of the school (by the RTC)". The Pine Point School has a long history of problems in the management and accountability of its operation. According to the Detroit Lakes Tribune, in April of 1982 the Pine Point School Board members Brent Gish, Vernon Bellecourt, and Warren Warren reviewed a report made by the Office of the State Auditor. Among other things, the report states that, "Previous school director Jerome M. Buckanaga used school funds for the purchase of a van, vehicle repair and insurance, car rentals, and the payment of "personal obligations." According to the Tribune article, dated April 15, 1982, "He Photo by Mark Boswell (Buckanaga) also accepted salary advances that were not fully reimbursed, according to the 14 page audit report which was read by Lloyd Voerding, who conducted the audit." Vizenor and Buckanaga seem to agree only upon the fact that the children must be educated. "All it sounds to me is like a bunch of egos . . . trying to pull weight," said Wolf, "My concern is the school, the kids in that school, and the people who work there." Vizenor was unavailable for comment. ?<
