Former Leech Lake tribal chairman Eli Hunt was recalled by Leech Lake voters in a recall election held on October ll*. 527 eh gible Leech Lake resident voters had signed a petition to recall Hunt, charging him with three violations of the Minnesota Chippewa Tribe constitution, in addition to seventeen specific charges. After about half of the charges against Hunt were heard during a special meeting of the Leech Lake RBC on September 13"\ Hunt waived his right to hear the rest of the evidence against him, and the RBC agreed to hold the recall election. Hunt was removed by 56% ofthe 1453 votes ELECTION to page 3 Tribal court judge refuses to evict Leech Lake family By Jeff Armstrong Leech Lake Tribal Court judge Margaret (Peggy) Treuer rejected an attempt by the Minnesota Chippewa Tribal Housing Corporation to foreclose on its loan to a family which refused to pay for a shoddily constructed $83,000 home (Leech Lake members face eviction, Nov. 22 Press/ON). Treuer ruled that the MCTHC reneged upon its responsibility to oversee construction standards and failed to even produce a signed copy ofthe mortgage. "It appears that the Plaintiff did not adequately inspect the quality ofthe work and materials on this home before approving payments to the various contractors,'' wrote Treuer. 'Tlainuff never advised defendants that the work being done on their home was not up to normal building standards." Treuer also held that the housing corporation had no legal basis to file for foreclosure in the reservation court, dismissing housing corporation attorney Larry Kimball's effort to found the action on state law. She ruled that Leech Lake must first of all enact a mortgage foreclosure code. "Foreclosure by action is apparently a statutory right under the laws of the State of Minnesota. Those laws are not binding on this Court. The LLBO Judicial Eviction Code expressly forbids issuance of an eviction order unless a mortgage foreclosure order is first obtained in the Tribal Court," Treuer wrote. "The [Court] believes that although the Tribal Court has been granted broad civil jurisdiction, a specific code permitting foreclosure action on Indian trust lands should be adopted by the RBC before such actions are allowed to proceed." Defendant Leota Hardy rejoiced at the news of the ruling, but she predicted that the MCTHC would bring the family back to court before taking any steps to make the house suitable. I haven't heard anything from [the housing corporation] since we went to court," said Hardy. "We're probably going to go back to court." Hardy said the decision should serve as a strong message to housing officials that' they got to foliow their guidelines. Finally, someone exposed them for what they should have been doing all these years.'' While Treuer's decision did leave open the possibility of a future foreclosure attempt, it also guaranteed the defendants right to file a counterclaim against the MCTHC and its contractors. Mpls police: federal mediation update A press release was issued on December 9,2002, in lieu of a press conference by the Community Negotiating Team regarding federal mediation between the Community Negotiating Team and the Minneapolis police. It contains all information authorized for release by the Community Negotiating Team Underthe federal mediation rules ofthe U.S. Justice Department's Community Relations Service, mediation participants are barred from commenting publicly about the process once mediation begins. The first mediation meeting was scheduled to start at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday, December 10*, although there are rumors that the meeting was delayed for a week in order to resolve questions about mediators' representation ofthe communities involved. Mediation is scheduled to continue for three months. The Community Negotiating Team elected Ron Edwards to act as its Spokesperson at the bargaining table. The CNT has developed a preliminary list of demands based on 5 UPDATE to page 7 McCaleb testimony called into question: BIA staff member testifies concerning missing emails By Jean Pagano Special Master Alan Balaran, named by U.S. District Court Judge Royce C. Lamberthin the landmark Cobell v. Secretary Ofthe Interior, called Bureau of Indian Affairs staff member Jean Maybee to testify in the matter ofthe disappearance of 10 months worth of emails from outgoing Assistant Secretary Neal McCaleb. Judge Lamberth has required that Interior file and print emails relating to the Cobell case, including McCaleb's. In a sworn 19 November affidavit, McCaleb has admitted to not following Department of Interior (DOI) policy in filing emails as well as not observing a court order to keep these same emails. Additionally, McCaleb stated that his'ririsrmderstanding'' about the emails was directly related to Maybee. McCaleb told Balaran that he was under the impression that Maybee was saving the documents for him. In the 10 December interview of Maybee by Special Master Balaran, Maybee denied McCaleb's claim that she was responsible in any way for the saving of his emails. It was learned in the Tuesday interview that Maybee had taken notes during the times in question during which McCaleb realized that his emails had been destroyed. Maybee detailed how she attempted to help McCaleb recover the emails from weekly backups performed at DOI. Maybee discovered that McCaleb had not followed the proper procedures to allow his emails to be backed up and that the DOI backups would not have these critical documents that were to be maintained. Subsequent to the McCaleb affidavit, the Assistant Secretary was recently called to testify under oath about the events surrounding the deletion ofthe emails. McCaleb's Deputy, Aurene Martin, has been called to testify this Friday, 13 December, concerning the emails. Martin, a former staff member for Sen. Ben Nighthorse Campbell (R-Colo) began serving with McCaleb in October 2001 at about the same time that the emails started disappearing. She served as his legal counsel.

Chris Ameson, Minneapolis Police Chief Robert Olson, 3rd Precinct Commander Sharon Lupinski meet with MUID and community members atthe December 10,h MUID meeting at the Minneapolis American Indian Center. Chief Olson addressed the group at length, and responded in part to the demands presented to the Minneapolis City Council on November 22nd. Those demands included: a complete and full investigation of the recent death of Carol Garbow; a full investigation of and re-opening of all the unsolved murder and rape cases on record, involving American Indian people for past decades; identifying and providing specific data on murder and rapes of American Indian people in the Twin Cities; providing increased police presence and safety programs in significant city areas of murders and rapes of Indian people; developing an on-going mutual working relationship with the Minneapolis Police Department and the American Indian community; providing meaningful cultural sensitivity training to the Police Department and related agencies on American Indian culture and values; and establishing round-table meetings between city agencies and groups such as the City Council, Police Department and the Civil Rights Department. Olson provided summary data on rapes and unsolved murders of Native Americans in Minneapolis, and handed out a report which detailed six of the unsolved murders. Mpls Police Chief Olson meets with Indian community leaders Mpls Police Chief Olson, along with 3rd Precinct Commander Sharon Lubinski and Lt Ameson, met with Anishinabe community leaders at the Mpls American Indian Center on Tuesday, December 10,2002. The meeting was hosted by the Metropolitan Urban Indian Directors (MUID). The Mpls police chief was well armed with facts, graphs, statistics, and names of victims surrounding Native American homicides and rapes since 1990. With specific factual data to back him in a Q & A format after his presentation, Chief Olson responded quite well to questions posed. He was not so evasive and political, as appeared the case when angry Anishinabe demonstrators had confronted him at City Hall on November 22, 2002. The following are some Native American homicides and rapes stats from 1990 to the present time. American Indian Violent Crimes Analysis, December, 2002, by the Special Investigations Division, Mpls Police Dept (MPD). 1. Native American Homicides, 1990 to present: 58 cases with 46 of these having been solved or termed under "clearance." The clearance rate is shown at 79.3 per cent Twelve Anishinabe cases are therefore still under investigation, and are "open homicide cases." Open homicide cases by race show Anishinabeg at 4.8 percent of the total which is disproportionate to their small population of less than 1 percent of the total general population. Black victims are 61.2 percent ofthe total homicide cases. Black homicide cases are often black on black, but not so with the Anishinabeg, according to homicide by race studies done several years ago. 2. Sexual Assaults of Native Americans. MPD, Sex Crimes Unit, Lt Mike Sauro's memo to Chief Olson dated 12-10-02 was handed out at the MUID meeting. According to the memo, between 1993- 2002 approximately 10% of all Criminal Sexual Contact Rape (CSCR) cases were Native American. And, for the year 2002, twenty- four CSCR cases were routed to the Sex Crimes Unit The sexual assault report states that the vast majority of these cases involved stranger on stranger CSCRs. This is a shocking 100 percent rate of strangers raping Anishinabe eqway-wug. Only 7 percent of strangers are involved in all OLSON to page 7 Unsolved murders of Native Americans in Minneapolis Since the Evan Denny murder, there are 175 unsolved murder cases in Minneapolis. 67% are black victims, 22% are white victims, 6% are Latino victims, and 3% of these are Native Americans who have been murdered: • Male, 24,10/20/90- shot: Lake & Chicago • Female, 49,4/18/92-beaten: Third Pet • Male, 41,6716792-beaten: near 3rd Ave. Bridge • Female, 31,9/12/92-shot: 17th &GirardN. • Female, 49, U/ll/92-stabbed: llth&5thN. • Male, 17,12/9/95-shot: under hwy overpass • Male, 20,5/31/96-shot: in alley 27th St. • Male, 38,5/31/96-beaten: Franklin Ave. • Male, 21,10/1/96-shot: 26th street • Male, 45,9/19/97-beaten: railroad tracks • Male, 42,9/22/00-beaten: under bridge • Female, 41,9/19/01-beaten: by 194 The report handed out at the MUID meeting by Chief Olson highlighted six of these unsolved UNSOLVED to page 2 Man accused in murder of Frank Parker withdraws demand for speedy trial Redwood Falls—According to the November 18,2002 issue of The Redwood Gazette, Christopher Sander waived his right to a speedy trial at an Omnibus hearing in the judge's chamber at Redwood District Court on Friday, November 15th. Sander was asked by his attorney, Barry Voss of Minneapolis, to be patient a while longer so that there would be plenty of time to prepare the defense of the murder charges against him. Sander and fellow defendant Dennis Pendleton, Jr., are accused of gunning down Frank Irving Parker II, of Minneapohs on June 19,2002. The murder occurred on the Lower Sioux Indian reservation. Both Sander and Pendleton are members ofthe Lower Sioux Indian Community. Voss told the court that there were three potential issues on the MURDER to page 6 Authorities fear violence in Leech Lake tribal election Associated Press CASS LAKE, Minn. — Fearing violence could result from recall petitions and the election of a Leech Lake tribal leader, a group of law enforcement officials in northern Minnesota have asked the U.S. attorney for help. Tom Heffelfinger, the U.S. attorney for Minnesota, received a letter last week from five northern Minnesota prosecutors and law enforcement leaders expressing concern about the election and about violence in the area. He said he dis cussed the issues with a few people who had signed the letter. A primary election is scheduled for Dec. 17 to replace former Tribal Council Chairman Eli O. Hunt, who was recalled by a vote in October. There are 25 candidates for the seat and the primary wih narrow the field to two, a tribal official said. Meanwhile, members of the community have begun another recall petition against Secretary- Treasurer Arthur (Archie) LaRose. A committee is scheduled to meet Monday to determine whether the 503 signatures on the petition are valid. . "I heard then concerns and I agreed that to the extent the federal government has authority, we wih work with local and tribal law enforcement to protect the safety of the people at Leech Lake and the integrity of their election," Heffelfinger said.

The report prompted several lawmakers to call for the state to demand more money from the tribes in exchange for extending the compacts that allow them to run the casinos. The compacts be gin to expire in August 2003. Gov.-elect Jim Doyle wants to negotiate a bigger chunk of that money for the state in exchange for longer compacts, spokesman Thad Nation said. Doyle beheves the $24 milhon the tribes paid last year was too low, Nation said. "He beheves that payment should be increased," Nation said. "Longer compacts are good for the tribes and good for Wisconsin because they'U help spur more investment in Wisconsin by the tribe, more economic development." Tribal profits were up $158.2 milhon from 1997 at the 24 casinos, an increase of 58.6 percent according to the Legislative Audit Bureau. Profits are the net revenue minus expenditures. Those expenditures include such things as systems to monitor electronic casino games and payments to private AUDIT to page 6 Governor signs gambling compacts with Arizona tribes ByBethDeFalco Associated Press PHOENIX— Gov.

"This truly is a great great day — a historic day for Arizona," Hull said. "It is good for the sovereignty ofthe Indian tribes and the interests ofthe state of Arizona." Proposition 202, an initiative that narrowly won voter approval in November, orders the governor to sign deals to increase the number of slot machines that tribes can operate and allow tribes to offer Las Vegas-style house-banked blackjack, which was not aUowed previously.

Lack of power could play well at Target Field
Some writers, like Phil Mackey of 1500 ESPN, have predicted that a healthy Twins line-up could vault the Twins to the top of the American League in their ability to produce runs. Obviously, this is only an estimate and the health of many of the key pieces is still in question. Even if the Twins do put more runs on the scoreboard, the pitching staff is going to have to allow a lot fewer runs to bring the team back into contention in the American League Central.
After the second full season at Target Field, the Twins organization knows a lot more about the intricacies of their new ballpark. The team has found some difficulties in the power department in their new home and they even tried to improve the batter's eye in center field. This means it is easier for the Twins to create a line-up on the field that is built for the quirks of Target Field.
Here are the Bill James predictions as posted on FanGraphs.com for each player that figures to be in the Twins starting line-up for 2012:
Denard Span: .288/.361/.379, 4 HR, 41 RBI, 64 R, 16 2B
Jamey Carroll: .274/.353/.332, 1 HR, 21 RBI, 45 R, 12 2B
Joe Mauer: .326/.412/.466, 11 HR, 71 RBI, 77 R, 31 2B
Josh Willingham: .248/.352/.460, 25 HR, 82 RBI, 71 R, 29 2B
Justin Morneau: .288/.369/.494, 12 HR, 51 RBI, 39 R, 18 2B
Ryan Doumit: .275/.335/.443, 13 HR, 55 RBI, 46 R, 26 2B
Danny Valencia: .278/.328/.420, 9 HR, 50 RBI, 46 R, 24 2B
Alexi Casilla: .264/.331/.347, 2 HR, 21 RBI, 52 R, 15 2B
Ben Revere: .280/.325/.326, 0 HR, 30 RBI, 56 R, 13 2B
With each of these players starting half of their games at Target Field, the potential to hit home runs is significantly decreased because of the way that the field plays. The large gaps in the outfield and high fence in right make a few home runs trots turn into stand-up doubles. There are not a lot of home run threats in this starting nine but that could be put together by design.
If the middle of the line-up is composed of a healthy Mauer, Morneau and Willingham, there is plenty of potential to see the ball fly out of the park. The Twins have also surrounded their key middle of the line-up pieces with players who can get on-base at a very consistent clip. After the putrid offensive output in 2011, it would be a welcome sight to see runs on-base at a higher rate.
There are three players the Twins will be relying on next year to be in the starting line-up who have little power potential. Carroll, Casilla, and Revere will be lucky to hit the three projected home runs as Bill James predicted in the above chart. The speed of Casilla, Revere and Span as back-to-back-to-back hitters in the line-up could be fun to watch on the base paths. Ozzie Guillen might be gone from the AL Central but the little piranhas could be all over the field for the Twins.
In the end, the Twins will not be slugging the ball out of many ball parks in American but that looks to be by design. Target Field has played to hitters who aren't trying to smack the ball over the fence with every swing. The organization limited their budget this year so going to get a player big name slugger like Prince Fielder or Albert Pujols was out of the question.
The line-up the Twins has for 2012 projects to score more runs than last season...
And that has to be a welcomed thought for all Twins fans.

Its hard to see how those numbers for Morneau indicate a healthy player. Morneau hit 18 HR's in 2010 in half a season. Those guesses look like the results of a statistical algorithm, rather than a realistic appraisal of offensive production.

Yeah... I take those projections with a grain of salt the size of Dead Sea. If you add the runs from all these players they add to >500 so they are actually "projecting" way worse than last season :)

The projections did not have all of these players in 150+ games. Plus there would be bench players who would also be contributing to the run total for the season. I was focusing on the nine projected starters at this point

first I will assume since you have a laptop that the sound card is installed if not then that would be the first step to install it.
now most linux distros have sound card drivers built into them
you can look here to see what modules you have:
in most cases those that are provided are sufficient to have sound (mine worked out of the box).
also check dmesg
looking for something to do with your sound card itself
maybe like this:
Soundblaster audio driver Copyright (C) by Hannu Savolainen 1993-1996
sb: Creative SB AWE64 PnP detected
sb: ISAPnP reports 'Creative SB AWE64 PnP' at i/o 0x220, irq 5, dma 1, 5
SB 4.16 detected OK (220)
sb: 1 Soundblaster PnP card(s) found.
i would recommend that you post your dmesg here so that others may look at it if you are lost.
also there is another way to try to see if your sound card is working by looking at
K > system > settings > sound and multimedia>soundsystems to see if that helps

CML is a Meta language to describe the dependencies of a page at one side and building a page from its fragments on the oth er side using LUA. CML (Cache Meta Language) wants to solves several problems: * dynamic content needs caching to perform * checking if the content is dirty inside of the application is usually more expensive than sending out the cached data * a dynamic page is usually fragmented and the fragments have different livetimes * the different fragements can be cached independently Authors: -------- Jan Kneschke <firstname.lastname@example.com>

LONG BEACH — Queen Latifah will headline the 29 th Annual Long Beach Lesbian & Gay Pride Festival next month, a spokesman said.
The 42-year-old Grammy winner, who has a large following in the LGBT communities, will perform at the festival May 19. It's Latifah's first appearance ever at a gay pride festival, said Long Beach Pride co-president Pat Crosby.
"For Queen Latifah to make her worldwide pride debut here in Long Beach is a tremendous testament to the popularity of our celebration and to the strength of our community," Crosby said.
The festival and parade are the city's second largest event, drawing 70,000 to 75,000 people over two days.
Though many people know Latifah (born Dana Elaine Owens) as a hip-hop singer, her credentials are more diverse. At 19, she released her debut CD, the 1989 hip-hop release "All Hail the Queen."
After the release of her fourth hip-hop CD, 1998's "Order in the Court," Latifah shifted primarily to singing soul music and jazz standards.
In 2004, she released the soul/jazz standards "The Dana Owens Album." Latifah is working on a new CD set to be released this year.
Away from recording, she had a starring role for five years (1993-1998) on the FOX sitcom "Living Single" and also had her own talkshow, "The Queen Latifah Show," from 1999 to 2001.
On the silver screen, Latifah received, in 2002, a best supporting actress Oscar nomination for her role in "Chicago," but lost to co-star Catherine Zeta-Jones.
Nevertheless, Latifah is one of three hip-hop artists to receive an Academy Award nomination in an acting category.
The Pride Festival will take place May 19-20 along Shoreline Drive at Marina Green Park and the parking lot adjacent to Rainbow Lagoon Park.
The Long Beach Lesbian & Gay Pride Parade will take place at 10:30 a.m. May 20.
Admission to the festival is $20 each day.

Do you wear breastfeeding clothing?
I was just reading about matenrity bras for wearing during pregnancy and breastfeeding, and it made me wonder if other mums always wear bras or tops designed for breastfeeding. I do still wear regular bras sometimes, and I rarely wear breastfeeding tops. I usually wear tops that can be pulled down or I wear layers, as so many of the breastfeeding tops I see are expensive.
Do you wear breastfeeding tops? What style do you like the best?

I did wear a maternity bra as I found it easier and gave me the support I needed. But I didn't find the need for special breastfeeding clothing. Like you Jessica I wore tops that I could pull up. Occasionally I might of worn something that had buttons at the front if I particularly liked that piece of clothing (though this was fiddly though). I did miss wearing dresses though.

I have some feeding bras and breastfeeding tops (that have two layers so you feed inbetween the two layers) but I find roomy normal tops easy to feed in to. Aussiemidwife - speaking of missing dresses when breastfeeding: I went to a big family party when my little one was 5 months old and breastfeeding lots. The thing was, when I was choosing my outfit I had somehow neglected to remember that he would need access to my breasts! The blue strappy dress I wore looked cute but I spent the entire time under a cover feeding!

Success and the ability to produce the touted benefits of tilt-up result from everyone's involvement in ensuring that fresh and hardened concrete perform as they should. Dennis Ahal, chairman of the board/CEO of concrete subcontractor Ahal Contracting Co. of Bridgeton, Mo., says he believes that superplasticizers have their place, but he recommends using only the minimum amount needed to get the strength desired. He also says that using a well-graded aggregate reduces the amount of paste required, providing equal or higher strength with less water and reducing shrinkage.
Although the ACI 551 Tilt-Up Construction Committee also is in the process of developing a tilt-up specification, the Tilt-Up Concrete Association (TCA) specification currently is the only industry standard. Mix design, test panels, and quality control are all key tenets of the revised TCA specification. Mike Sugrue, P.E., vice president of Con/Steel Tilt-Up Systems, Dayton, Ohio, says that although cylinders are crucial for assessing the strength of concrete in service, beams are needed to ascertain flexural strength prior to lifting.
TCA's revised specification calls for no fewer than four cylinders and three beams for each class of concrete, each 150 cubic yards (114.7 cubic meters) or a fraction thereof, each day concrete is cast, or each 5000 square feet (464.5 square meters) of panel area. The article also describes a joint TCA-ACI tilt-up technician certification program and how to investigate low-strength test results.

Schilt Headlines Glory World Series, March 23
2012 is a big year for Golden Glory, as they've put up a total of a million dollars in prize money for three tournaments. Before the tournaments kick off though, there will be a stacked event on this Friday, March 23 in Moscow, Russia.
Headlining is four time K-1 World Grand Prix champion, Semmy Schilt, as he finally makes his return to the ring after over a year off. As expected, Semmy isn't just going to hop right back in against a top fighter. He'll fight Brice Guidon in a suitable match-up for Semmy to shake off the ring rust. Guidon lost to Gokhan Saki in the finals of last year's heavyweight tournament that United Glory put on. Since then, he's picked up two wins in a row.
Right before Semmy is a big fight in Errol Zimmerman vs. Jerome Le Banner. Zimmerman has been on fire since 2011, having won seven in a row. JLB is still pushing forward and still has enough gas left in the tank to make this fight competitive. The last of the three main fights is friend of LiverKick, Mark Miller taking on Sergei Kharitonov. Mark made his return to the sport last year at the Glory World Series Final, knocking out Nikolaj Falin in just four seconds. Sergei's last fight was in MMA but he knocked out Mighty Mo with a vicious uppercut at the same event that Mark fought at last year.
More kickboxing. In a -98kg bout, light heavyweight-turned heavyweight Ali Cenik continues his stint as a heavyweight against the Lithuanian fighter, SergejMaslobojev. Igor Jurkovic, fresh off a win just over a week ago at Cro Cop Final Fight over Freddy Kemayo, fights K-1 veteran Zabit Samedov in a heavyweight contest. Jamal Ben Saddik, who stopped Rico Verhoeven last year, faces Vitaly Oparin at heavyweight.
Yes, there's some non-heavyweight kickboxing action on the card. Robin van Roosmalen had to pull out of his fight with Dzhabar Askerov so Maxim Vorovski stepped in to replace him in a -72.5kg. Nieky Holzken got slotted into the card just recently and he'll face David Kyria at -73.9kg. That's it for kickboxing, and there's four MMA bouts to start the show.
You can purchase and watch the event at gfl.tv. Full fight card:
MMA -95 kg Ilir Latifi (Sweden) vs Vladimir Gerasimchik (Russia)
MMA -65 kg Cesario di Domenico (Brazil) vs Murad Machayev (Russia)

State health officials are urging Hoosiers again this year to take steps to protect themselves from mosquito-borne diseases, including Eastern Equine encephalitis, St. Louis Encephalitis and West Nile Virus. In 2009, there were three human cases of mosquito-borne disease in the state.
La Crosse encephalitis virus (LACV) is transmitted to humans by the bite of an infected mosquito. Most cases of LACV disease occur in the upper Midwestern and mid-Atlantic and southeastern states (see map).
Many people infected with LACV have no apparent symptoms. Among people who become ill, initial symptoms include fever, headache, nausea, vomiting, and tiredness. Some of those who become ill develop severe neuroinvasive disease (disease that affects the nervous system). Severe LACV disease often involves encephalitis (an inflammation of the brain) and can include seizures, coma, and paralysis. Severe disease occurs most often in children under the age of 16. In rare cases, long-term disability or death can result from La Crosse encephalitis.
There is no specific treatment for LACV infection-- care is based on symptoms. If you or a family member have symptoms of severe LACV disease or any symptoms causing you concern, consult a healthcare provider for proper diagnosis.
The best way to reduce your risk of infection with LACV or other mosquito-borne viruses is to prevent mosquito bites. Use insect repellent, wear long sleeves, long pants and socks or even stay indoors while mosquitoes are most active. The mosquitoes that spread LACV are most active during the daytime.
Dengue is transmitted to people by the bite of an Aedes mosquito that is infected with a dengue virus. The mosquito becomes infected with dengue virus when it bites a person who has dengue virus in their blood. The person can either have symptoms of dengue fever or DHF, or they may have no symptoms. After about one week, the mosquito can then transmit the virus while biting a healthy person. Dengue cannot be spread directly from person to person. Dengue has emerged as a worldwide problem only since the 1950s. Although dengue rarely occurs in the continental United States, it is endemic in Puerto Rico and in many popular tourist destinations in Latin America and Southeast Asia; periodic outbreaks occur in Samoa and Guam.

Topic: Percutaneous drainage
Hi, My husband Philip is now one year from diagnosis at Mayo MN. He had metal stents placed last December and has needed a plastic stent placed inside of the metal. The left lobe of the liver hasn't been able to be drained for a while.
Long story short, the GI Dr at Penn has been urging him to have percutaneous drainage done since February. Philip has resisted, who wants another reminder of this disease, we have plenty already. Of course we have the threat of stent blockages, and I just don't think things drain that well now.
They remind us that he may need drainage and be too sick to have this done. At this point, he's doing pretty well. He can occasionally go into his old office and work a bit, we can travel as much as chemo exhaustion allows.
I'd like to know how many have gone this route and does it offer a "better quality of life" as they seem to urge us at University of Pennsylvania.

Stevie Nicks Signs On For 'The Voice'
Listen to Stevie Nicks Radio on iHeartRadio
Stevie Nicks is joining the cast of NBC's "The Voice." The Fleetwood Mac frontwoman is on board for season seven, and will serve as an advisor to coach Adam Levine.
Levine jokes to "Extra" that it took "bribery, begging, pleading" and "a lot of gifts" to get Nicks to sign on. And Stevie takes things further, claiming it was the "presents" -- including a "fur coat, some beautiful shoes," and "sheets" -- that did the trick. She then offers her real reasons for agreeing to participate, admitting she thinks "The Voice" is "great."
Nicks adds that Adam's lengthy run is an endorsement in itself, because he wouldn't "still be sitting here seven years later if this wasn't a great show."
Adam says he's also thrilled to have Stevie on his team because she's his "lucky charm."
Nicks made a guest appearance on the season one finale of "The Voice" and sang "Landslide" with Team Adam's Javier Colon, who became the show's first winner.
"The Voice" will return to NBC on September 22nd.

Pentax MX-1 review: High-end compact with retro appeal delivers competitive sensor performanceBy Janice Chen - Thursday February 28 2013 Sensor Review
Announced this January at CES 2013, the Pentax MX-1 is Pentax's first foray into the relatively crowded field of high-end-compact cameras. With a 12-megapixel, 1/1.7-inch backlit CMOS sensor, the Pentax MX-1 competes directly with established high-end compacts like the Canon PowerShot S110, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX7, Olympus XZ-2 iHS, and Nikon Coolpix P7700 among others, many of which have already been through multiple updates and iterations.
Released just a month after being announced at CES, the Pentax MX-1 enters an extremely competitive enthusiast compact camera market, which has heated up significantly after being dominated by Canon and Panasonic for years. Unlike Pentax's first foray into the interchangeable lens compact camera market, the Pentax Q, which sported an above-average price with a smaller-than-average sensor relative to its interchangeable lens peers, the MX-1 sports specs that are right on the money for its $499.95 price tag and high-end point-and-shoot market. Like the Olympus XZ-2 ($599.99) and Nikon P7700 ($499.95), the Pentax MX-1 is built upon a 12-megapixel, 1/1.7-inch backside illuminated CMOS sensor. Not only does it deliver admirable specs for the price—such as a bright 28-112mm equivalent f/1.8-2.5 4x zoom lens; a high-resolution 3.0-inch, 920,000-dot tiltable LCD; and a wide ISO 100 to 12,800 sensitivity range—but it also shoots 1080p 30fps HD video as well as JPEG, Raw, and Raw+JPEG stills, and offers an HDR mode.
On top of the competitive specs and feature set, the MX-1 also delivers in the one area the Pentax Q really did shine: design. With a vintage rangefinder-styled look that rivals Fujifilm's popular X Series for its retro appeal, Pentax takes the trend one step further by using painted brass panels that are intended to wear and develop a patina over time. The retro trend—arguably begun when Olympus first revived its iconic PEN design for its interchangeable lens compact cameras—has proven attractive to the enthusiast market that the MX-1 is targeting, and Pentax's use of an SLR-like interface with the MX-1 no doubt targets that same market of enthusiasts.

Stars turn out to salute 2013's top country artists
The country music community is saluting 2013's most successful stars.
Jason Aldean is one of this year's CMT Artists of the Year, and the only recipient who's been recognized every year since the event began in 2010. In accepting his award, the singer said the CMT ceremony gives him a chance to show respect to those who paved the way for him - like fellow honoree Tim McGraw - as well as those who are following him.
Some "buddies" Aldean mentioned by name included fellow honorees Luke Bryan and Florida Georgia Line, while Hunter Hayes was also among this year's recipients.
The star-packed celebration featured tributes and performances, including a few collaborations. Peter Frampton, who presented the award to Hayes, added guitar to Lady Antebellum's salute to McGraw.
Travis Tritt and Cassadee Pope performed in honor of Aldean, while Train's Pat Monahan joined Hayes for a special performance.
Bryan closed the show - but not with any of his hits. He shared the spotlight with Lionel Richie to sing two of Richie's songs. Blue Collar Comedy star Ron White brought the humor as the official host of the show, while he and "Anchorman" Ron Burgundy - played by Will Ferrell - engaged in a battle over which "Ron" should be at the helm.
The CMT Artists of the Year special aired live on CMT from Nashville Tuesday night.

2014 Winter Olympics: Bring your umbrella
posted at 8:23 am on February 6, 2013 by Ed Morrissey
Maybe, in retrospect, it was a mistake to award the 2014 Winter Olympics to a place known as "the warmest place in Russia." Just sayin':
The Winter Olympics is just one year away, opening Feb. 7, 2014, so perhaps there's still time for the press people to figure out how to deal with journalists, for hotels to provide WiFi and for the organizers to turn rain into snow.
Yes, it rained here this week — hard — and not just on the subtropical coast where enclosed ice rinks are frozen nicely, but up in the mountains 30 miles away. Oh, and the very top peak above the Roza Khutor resort was closed for fear of avalanche. Skiers and snowboarders coming down from lower elevations, at 4,900 and 3,700 feet, wore raincoats over their parkas. …
Whether it will snow has been an underlying concern of the Olympics, but one that has been brought firmly under government control because President Vladimir Putin, who loves to ski in Sochi, has decided these Games will show the real, modern, vibrant Russia to the world, snow included.
Sochi is the warmest place in Russia, a palm-fringed city that runs 25 miles along the Black Sea. Tuesday morning it was 54 degrees, and the day before it was around 60. Of course it's colder in the mountains and regularly snows — but regularly enough? That question has been answered in one of Russia's slogans, "Sochi 2014: Guaranteed Snow."
Ah, heck, we can watch downhill skiers schussing through the passes in any run-of-the-mill Olympics. Russia will have us watching them slushing instead. That'll be, er … unique.
As will be the cost:
But snow was dodgy in Vancouver, and life went on. As for Vancouver, a few days ago Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Kozak estimated Sochi will cost $51 billion, far more than Vancouver's $6 billion. The previous big spender was China, at an estimated $40 billion for the 2008 Summer Games. There's a lot to build here — this was a dated summer resort with little development in the mountains. Private investors are putting up 20,000 hotel rooms, but expensive roads, tunnels through mountains, railroads, bridges and power plants are also soaking up the rubles.
Shouldn't this have been something that the IOC considered when choosing this venue? And really, why would any nation want to host this event and spend this kind of fortune on one-off accommodations? Very clearly, Sochi didn't need any of this infrastructure before the Olympics, and they probably won't need it afterward, either.

Notes from a Biographer
Letter from GuamBy Sam Stephenson
Stephenson has been blogging for The Daily about W. Eugene Smith, the subject of his forthcoming biography. Here, he writes to managing editor Nicole Rudick from the island of Guam.
Dear Nicole,
I am writing you from my hotel in Guam rather than taking a day trip to Iwo Jima. The visit was canceled by the American and Japanese embassies, because of the earthquake and nuclear disaster in Japan. The Japanese government opens the uninhabited island to civilians only one day a year, and I've been planning my month-long Pacific journey in Smith's footsteps around this year's date, March 16, for the past ten months. I'm disappointed, but I understand the decision. A government-sanctioned sightseeing trip to a remote island seems inappropriate while Japan is undergoing the current tragedy, no matter that 140 Americans had gathered here for the trip, with a mirror group in Tokyo.
It means I'll have to come back next year. Smith made stunning photographs of the Iwo Jima battle, and I can't finish this biography without seeing that tiny piece of volcanic rock poking up out of the ocean. It measures only four and half miles long and two and a half miles wide, yet we (Americans) had eight hundred ships and two hundred thousand troops off its shores in 1945. The absurdity of that reality must have impacted young Smith, who was from landlocked Kansas: We're fighting the war of all wars over this?

LWC William T. Luckey Jr., right, looks on as trustee David
Perry explains
"Perry's 3 P's" -- "Purpose + Place + People = Return on
Inspiration" -- during
the Trustee Appreciation & Endowed Scholarship Recognition
COLUMBIA, Ky. -- People who change lives were
honored Friday, Oct. 25, at Lindsey Wilson College's Trustee
Appreciation & Endowed Scholarship Recognition Luncheon.
LWC President William T. Luckey Jr. told the more
than 225 guests at the Roberta D. Cranmer Dining & Conference
Center how the college's endowed scholarships change lives.
"I can't imagine anything more meaningful than the
opportunity to impact lives here on this campus," he said. "In
fact, that's what you do -- impact lives here on this campus
through the endowed scholarships you've established."
Luckey reported that the Lindsey Wilson Endowment
$100 Million Challenge had helped double the college's
endowment over the last three years. When Luckey issued the
challenge in 2010, the Lindsey Wilson Endowment stood at $9
million; it recently reached $18.4 million.
"While we're still a long way from our goal, we're a lot
closer than we once were," he said.
In his keynote address, Lindsey
Wilson trustee David Perry of Boston said how
his outlook on LWC is shaped by "Perry's 3 P's" -- "Purpose + Place
+ People = Return on Inspiration."
"This is definitely a mission-driven institution -- you
can feel it every day, everywhere," said Perry, who is chief
marketing office at Bentley (Mass.) University. "There are certain
institutions that are mission-challenged, but this is a
mission-driven institution and I felt it from the first day I
stepped foot on this campus."
Perry said he established the Gertrude &
Donald Perry Endowed Scholarship as a way to "pay it
forward" by making a difference in the lives of the rising
Perry said that one of the characteristics about LWC he
especially admires is how the spirit of the college transcends its
A.P. White Campus.
"Great colleges have a true sense of place that goes
beyond the physical," Perry said. "This is the beacon on the hill.
… And I think miracles have, will and do happen here every day, for

Research ››› ››› ANDREW SEIFTER
One day after President Bush's April 28 press conference, the 10 largest U.S. newspapers obscured the full impact of Bush's proposed cuts in Social Security benefits. While some articles failed to note that the proposal would drastically cut benefits for lower-middle-income workers and not just for the wealthy, others neglected to describe the changes as cuts at all, instead repeating the Republican talking point that they would merely slow the rate of growth in benefits. The Wall Street Journal and the Associated Press even falsely reported that low-income workers would receive greater benefits under the Bush plan than under current law.
Bush's proposal, which the White House acknowleged is based upon a plan developed by Robert C. Pozen, would provide a tiered system of benefits based on income. This proposal would likely cut the level of benefits promised under the current Social Security system for all workers making more than $20,000 a year -- or just above the poverty threshold of $19,157 for a family of four, with two children -- while leaving benefit levels for those making under $20,000 unchanged.
Newspapers disguised benefit cuts by describing them as "slow[ing] future increases in benefits"
Several major newspapers adopted Bush's characterization of his proposal as a slowdown in the rate at which benefits increase for higher income workers, rather than stating what it would be -- a cut in promised benefits.
In an article titled "Bush Recasts Message on Social Security," the Los Angeles Times reported in the lead paragraph that Bush "favored changing the pension system so that benefits for low-income workers would grow faster than those for wealthy retirees." Similarly, USA Today reported that Bush endorsed a "plan that would slow future increases in benefits for middle- and upper-income workers," the Houston Chronicle's lead paragraph reported that he "proposed a slower increase in benefits for middle- and upper-income future retirees," and the Chicago Tribune reported that he proposed "curb[ing] the growth in benefits for middle-class and wealthy Americans while pledging that low-income workers would see their benefits rise faster than the well-to-do." Other major newspapers, such as The Philadelphia Inquirer, made comparable characterizations of the Bush proposal, and the New York Daily News merely quoted Bush's own explanation of the changes.
But such accounts fail to reveal that Bush's proposal for "progressive indexing," which the White House says is based upon the Pozen plan, would result in substantial cuts in the benefit levels promised under the current Social Security system.
According to a recent study by the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, the "progressive price indexing" plan advanced by Pozen "would impose substantial benefit reductions" on average and wealthy workers "relative to the benefits that the worker would receive under the current benefit structure." The CBPP report also noted that "[t]hese are much larger benefit reductions than those included in alternative plans that achieve sustainable Social Security solvency through a mix of revenue increases and benefit reductions."
Although it failed to explicitly acknowledge the benefit cuts in its main article on the press conference, USA Today summarized the impact of the Bush proposal in a separate article on "progressive indexing":
The change sounds semantic, but the impact would be considerable. Wages historically rise faster than prices, which means the retirement benefits for better-paid workers would be significantly lower than under the current system.
Newspapers failed to reveal that benefits cuts would impact lower-middle and middle income workers
Many major newspapers acknowledged that Bush called for benefits cuts for "wealthier workers" or "higher-income" earners but failed to report that these cuts would also impact lower-middle and middle-class workers. For example, while the headline on a New York Times article accurately acknowledged that "Bush Cites Plan That Would Cut Social Security Benefits," staff writers Richard W. Stevenson and Elisabeth Bumiller reported that "he proposed doing so in a way that would demand the most sacrifice from higher-income people while insulating low-income workers." The Times story was also picked up by The Denver Post. The Daily News simply quoted Bush's own claim that "benefits for low-income workers will grow faster than benefits for people who are better off."
The Washington Post did report that Bush's plan would "curtail future Social Security benefits for all but low-income retirees," although it did not make clear who "all but low-income retirees" would be under the proposal. The Inquirer was somewhat more descriptive about who would be affected, but, again, repeated Bush's claim about cuts simply being a slowdown in benefit increases, reporting that Bush's proposal "would let benefits grow as already promised for the poorest Americans but would cut the rate of increase in benefits for the rest."
In addition to failing to report that Bush had actually proposed "cuts," the Los Angeles Times article also failed to note the impact of those cuts on the middle class by describing only the impact on "low-income workers" and "wealthy retirees."
Whether or not they mentioned the impact on middle-income workers, none of the major newspapers attempted to define precisely what income levels they were attributing to "low-income" and "wealthy" workers. For the articles that didn't mention the middle class, anyone who is not "wealthy" was, by implication, unaffected by Bush's plan. But the proposal is projected to result in significant benefit reductions for lower- middle and middle income workers, not just the wealthy. As the CBPP report noted, "Full 'price indexing' would make a change in the Social Security benefit formula so that initial Social Security benefits would keep pace only with prices, rather than wages, from one generation to the next. Because prices increase more slowly than wages, this would result in progressively larger benefit reductions over time." The CBPP then documented that the Pozen proposal for price indexing would result in benefit cuts for all workers making more than $20,000 a year:
The Pozen proposal would use price indexing to determine the benefits for "maximum earners," people who currently make $90,000 or more annually. Lower-earners -- specifically the bottom 30 percent of earners, or those who make less than about $20,000 currently -- would continue to have their benefits calculated under the current formula. Anyone whose annual earnings over his or her career averaged between $20,000 and $90,000 would get a benefit somewhere between the currently promised benefit and the benefit that would be provided under price indexing. For example, a worker making about $35,000 annually would be subject to about half of the price-indexing benefit reduction, while a worker making about $55,000 annually would be subject to more than 80 percent of the price-indexing benefit reduction.
Wall Street Journal, Associated Press falsely reported that low-income workers will receive greater benefits than under the current system
In its report on Bush's Social Security proposal, The Wall Street Journal falsely reported that the plan "actually would leave low-income workers better off than they are under current law." Similarly, the Associated Press reported that Bush urged Congress to "tilt the system to benefit low-income retirees." In fact, as the CBPP noted, "low earners ... would continue to have their benefits calculated under the current formula."

Miley Cyrus to go on tour in 2014
Listen to Miley Cyrus on iHeartRadio
Miley Cyrus is set to take her twerking teddy bears on the road in 2014.
The singer made a cameo appearance on this weekend's "Saturday Night Live" to break the news. She hijacked actor Edward Norton's opening monologue with the help of Alec Baldwin.
After telling fans to look out for dates in 2014, she and Alec gave the first-time host some tips. Miley pulled double-duty on the show earlier this month.
The 20-year-old has yet to announce any of the tour dates for the upcoming tour. Her site notes that further details are coming soon.
The tour in support of Bangerz will be Miley's first since the "Best of Both Worlds" in 2007, when she played her Disney character Hannah Montana.
Based on her recent live performances, we can only imagine what this tour will be like.

I've been wondering about this for some time, but have never found anywhere, other than a few obscure archived forum posts on the topic, that shed much light on this problem.
John the Ripper (I HOPE you know what that is ), has an MPI build available, and I have to say, it works quite well. (By the way, my cluster on consists of a five node test environment with about 12GHz and 10GB RAM all up but it's better than nothing ).
However, when it comes to WPA hash cracking, JTR falls short. I've done the usually generating combinations with JTR, and piping that into aircrack, but aircrack does a HORRIBLE job of running on more than one core!
I was wondering if anybody knew of a program (does coWPAtty work I've never tried it) that support multiple cores/a cluster environment?
All responses appreciated!

The mind of the believer stagnates. It fails to grow outward into an unlimited, infinite universe.
The duct tape, pepper spray, home made taser combo did look real though.
