On behalf of Phyllis Webster, you will never meet such a wonderful and caring woman, who will go out of her way to help someone. Most people get out of the way so they don't have to help someone, not even family.
Not Phyllis Webster, she does it all, then some. It was a heartbreak for her to retire. Phyllis has not gone far, she will always be in our hearts and for some of us, Phyllis Webster became family. God bless you, Phyllis.
The Owen County Farmers' Market has plans for a great pumpkin contest this fall. So that means the time to plant your entry is now.
Pumpkins will be weighed at the last farmers' market in October if enough interest in shown. Family activities will be staged at various locations, three out in the county on the four Saturdays in October.
Information may be obtained at the farmers' market by calling Beverly Miller at the Eden Dream Foundation at (859) 242-9772.

On June 2, I attended the War of 1812 celebration at the Owen County History Museum and heard retired Gen. Carl Black tell the story of the flag at Fort McHenry in Baltimore, Md. during the British bombardment of Sept. 16, 1814.
Francis Scott Key witnessed the battle from a British ship while on board to negotiate the release of one of his friends, a prisoner of England. He kept looking to see if the American flag was still waving.
It is the "eleventh" hour and the destiny of the Ford house across the street from the Owenton United Methodist Church is in the hands of the city and zoning commission. They will meet Thursday, June 14, at 6 p.m. at city hall.
(Editor' note: the planning and zoning commission meeting scheduled for Thursday has been rescheduled for June 25 at 6 p.m.
They will hear comments from anyone to change zoning from residential to commercial. They will make a recommendation to the city council who will have the final vote.
At the Owen County Public Library, we are dreaming big.
Join us every Wednesday in the month of June for fantastic, dream-themed programming at either 10:30 a.m. or 2 p.m.
Last year over 300 Owen countians participated in our programs. We hope to beat that number this year. Programming locations will vary this summer and will include the extension building, the high school auditorium and the middle achool multi-purpose room, so check our web site or ask a librarian for more details.
We would like to give a big thank you to the community for their support of the Caring Hearts Power Pack Program for the2011-2012 school year. The program was a success with approximately 375 students receiving food for the weekends. The program is run entirely on donations and grants, and we are blessed to say that it was fully funded this past year. Without your support this would not have been possible, Thank you.
Owen County's Second Annual Fan Fair is shaping up to be an exciting event with something for the whole family.
June 26-30, Tuesday through Saturday, we will have food, shopping, entertainment, and activities every day from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.
The Owen County Visioneers have worked hard to organize and advertise this event with radio ads, magazine articles, Kentucky Speedway, and Kentucky Tourism.
I'm sure that the comments and concerns surrounding zoning of the Ford property on South Main are sincere and well meant. I am, however, troubled by what appear to be unfair and burdensome expectations placed on the property owner and criticisms of her plan to sell the property. Classifying the property as commercial would seem to be quite reasonable considering the present disposition of Main Street.
I wish to thank Owen countians and people elsewhere, who have Owen County roots, for their enormous monetary contributions for the erection and dedication of the highway marker for "Karsner Airfield" and "H. Clark Karsner, Owner and Operator."
The News-Herald paper dated Feb. 7, 1946 refers to Clark Karsner as having, "Brought aviation to Owen County" and the gospel message from his "gospel plane." Bro. Lewis Arnold proclaimed the message.
On May 22 I would like to encourage every registered voter to "Rock the Vote" in Owen County for the largest turnout in history. I am proud to support Camilla "Kay" Patton for state representative of the 61st district.
I have known Kay for almost 30 years and have witnessed her devotion for 24 years to the Commonwealth of Kentucky. She has served in the department of transportation and the Kentucky State Police in 17 counties. Retiring at age 42, she opened her own, "B-Safe Driving School" business and my son Nate is one of her graduates.

For most spiders, sons and daughters never get to meet their mum. The spiderlings hatch and are left alone to survive or become prey themselves. One exception to this behaviour is the wolf spiders (family Lycosidae). They provide maternal care that helps to protect the spiderlings until they are older and more able to feed and defend themselves.
Wolf Spider, Lycosa speciesPhotographer: Alan Henderson, Source: Museum Victoria
The female wolf spider weaves a circular mat of fine silk onto which she deposits a hundred or more eggs. She then weaves silk around the eggs, draws up the sides of the mat and sews it into a silken ball. The size of this silken ball is often about the same as the spider itself.

Using strong silken threads, she then attaches the egg case to the under surface of her abdomen and carries it with her. She incubates the eggs during the day by facing the egg case towards the sun and slowly turning it. When the spiderlings finally hatch, they crawl up onto the mother's abdomen, often covering her several layers deep.
Her maternal care extends only to providing the spiderlings with transport and protection from predators. The spiderlings do not share any of the prey that the mother catches, and if they fall off they are not rescued. Still, it's a better start to life than most other spiderlings receive.

The wolf spider is not alone in the maternal care department. Scorpions also carry their young on their back, and female huntsmen spiders will also protect their spiderlings.

Hi Andrew - feel free to send us the photos you have, you can attach them to a message to us via the 'Contact Us' option at the very bottom of the page.
Wolf spiders, like some other species, have the ability to sacrifice a body part in order to escape prey. It is not uncommon to see spiders with less than a full complement of legs, due to this natural defence. As explained by Brueseke et al in their research article "Leg Autotomy in the Wolf Spider Pardosa milvina: A Common Phenomenon with Few Apparent Costs", the loss of a leg does not cause significant detriment to the spider. You can read an abstract of this article here.
Hi Olivia,
If you can take a clear photograph of the spiders and send it through to us via our Ask the Experts page we can try and identify it for you.
Hi Megan,
Wolf Spiders can have up to three hundred young, but only about half survive to become adults.
Hi Suez,Wolf Spiders (Family Lycosidae) are active hunters that run down their prey at night. They have large forward-facing eyes for detecting movement and judging distances, and apart from a few specialist Wolf Spider species they are generalist predators of insects and other spiders. So snails are generally safe from Wolf Spiders. The egg sac, filled with dozens of eggs, is carried around by the female and as soon as they hatch they climb onto the mother's back and the egg sac is discarded. The abdomen of the female has specialised hook-like hairs onto which they cling, so we're not aware what the white bits might be but it might help if you sent in a photo. The young remain on the mother's back for up to a month, depending on the species.
We love receiving comments, but can't always respond.

A virtue ethicist would not flip the switch.
A utilitarian or a lay Buddhist would just flip the switch. Having right intention, there is no killing intent present and therefore no unwholesome kamma accumulated.

ABC Unified encompasses all or part of six cities, but every one of the school district's board members resides in Cerritos.
A group of area residents is hoping to change that and other perceived inequities of representation there and in the neighboring Bellflower Unified School District.
The residents are petitioning district officials to switch from an at-large voting system to a district voting system to better represent the population.
The push reflects a growing trend as school districts, college boards and cities across the state scramble to switch from at-large voting to electoral districts in response to public pressure and threats of lawsuits under the California Voting Rights Act.
In November, four out of five incumbents for the Cerritos College Board of Trustees were swept out of office under a new trustee district voting system. The change brought a historic face of diversity to the Norwalk-based board with three Latina representatives.
Cerritos activist Charles Ara hopes to duplicate that change in local school boards.
Ara, who has formed an independent school district reorganization committee and is circulating a petition to gather support, said the ABC Unified and Bellflower school boards do not fairly represent the area's large Latino population, nor do they reflect the cities they serve.
ABC Unified represents the cities of Cerritos, Hawaiian Gardens, Artesia and portions of Lakewood, Norwalk and Long Beach. However, Ara noted that all seven school board members reside in Cerritos.
"In order for us to have fairness and equality, that needs to be broken up," Ara said.
In Bellflower Unified, an area with a large Latino population -- its base in the city of Bellflower is over 50 percent Latino -- just one school board member is Latino, Ara said. More than 60 percent of students in the district are Latino, according to state statistics.
Bellflower Unified Superintendent Brian Jacobs said in an email to the Press-Telegram that the district has discussed the issue of switching to district-area voting and has prepared a study for the California School Boards Association.
ABC Unified School Board President Celia Spitzer said the district in 2011 conducted an extensive demographic study and determined that the voting system wasn't polarized along racial or ethnic lines.
"It was an extensive analysis looking back all the way to 1981, and the conclusion was that there was no evidence of racially polarized voting," Spitzer said, adding that the district does not plan to change its voting system.
While ABC Unified does have a disproportionate number of Cerritos residents on the school board, Spitzer, a board member since 1999, noted that the California Voting Rights Act is designed for racial discrimination and does not address voting disparities along geographic lines.
"The issue doesn't really apply here in ABC Unified," she said.
Signed by Gov. Gray Davis in 2002, the California Voting Rights Act prohibits local governments from holding at-large elections -- in which the whole community elects members of a governing body -- if that system impairs the ability of minority groups to elect candidates of their choice.
School boards and cities can be found liable if lawyers can prove the voting is polarized along racial lines.
The law gained strength in 2007 when the California Supreme Court deemed it constitutional following a claim from the city of Modesto that the act inherently favored people of color.
Armed with 2010 census data, lawyers across the state have targeted governing bodies who may be in violation, essentially changing the face of local elections.
The majority of California school boards use at-large voting, as do many small cities. In district elections, candidates can run only in the district in which they live.
Since 2009, 70 school boards that have applied with the state Board of Education to switch to elections by district, according to California Watch, an independent center for investigative reporting. Most of them are located in Fresno, Kings, Madera and Tulare counties.
Southern California cities and school boards that have voted to make the switch include the city of Compton, Pasadena Unified and Downey Unified.
Ara said he'll continue to ask the Los Angeles County Board of Education to review the districts for evidence of violations under the California Voting Rights Act.
In 2011, Ara was one of three Latino residents who filed a lawsuit against Cerritos College stating the Board of Trustees was in violation of the Voting Rights Act. The college in December 2011 adopted a new plan to create seven trustee areas, and the lawsuit was later settled out of court.
The two other plaintiffs, Carmen Avalos and Leonard Zuniga, ran for seats on the board in November. Zuniga lost to incumbent Robert Arthur, while Avalos won in her newly designated district.

Birds are highly visible and vocal, spectacularly diverse, and fascinating to watch and study. This information sheet is a guide for those with queries about birds or who are interested in finding out more about birds and birdwatching.
Australian King Parrot, Alisterus scapularisPhotographer / Source: Gary Lewis
Birdwatching is a popular hobby worldwide and there are millions of birdwatchers in many countries. Australia has several organisations dedicated to birdwatching and conservation that can help you and provide opportunities to meet other people interested in birds.
Birdlife Australia (created in 2012 from the merger of Birds Australia & Bird Observation & Conservation Australia) is dedicated to the understanding, conservation and enjoyment of Australia's wild native birds and their habitats. They publish the quarterly magazine Australian Birdlife (formally called Wingspan).

A good pair of binoculars with a magnification between 7´ and 10´ will do for most situations. Always look around; birds are not always flying in front of you. Look in the foliage of bushes, or on the branches of trees, where birds might be sheltering.
Birds can be seen where you might not expect them. Dozens of species are recorded annually in the parks and streets around Melbourne Museum. Birds can show up in unlikely places. Use your ears. Songs and calls will often tell you what birds are around. Move quietly; birds are startled by loud noises and sudden movement.
Photographs and calls of Victorian bird species are available on Field Guide to Victorian Fauna, Museum Victoria's free app for iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad.
Dead native birds (from road kills, window collisions or attacks by other animals) can be lodged with Museum Victoria's Ornithology department. Many valuable specimens in our collections have been handed in by members of the general public. Native birds, even if they are dead, may be retained only if you have a permit from the Victorian Department of Sustainability and Environment.
Dead birds should be hygienically wrapped in plastic and placed in a freezer with a note giving location, date, and donor's name. Contact the Discovery Centre at Melbourne Museum and they will speak to the Ornithology Collection to assess whether the museum wants the bird. Do NOT post the bird through the mail. Arrange with the Discovery Centre for a suitable time to deliver the bird in person. It is best to keep the bird frozen during transport.
Native birds in Victoria are protected. It is illegal to interfere with birds or their nests and eggs, or to be in possession of live or dead native birds without a permit. Further details of regulations and permits can be obtained from the Department of Sustainability and Environment.

Hi Samara, you might want to contact the RSPCA. They will be able to put you in touch with a wildlife carer in your area.
Hi Lauren, the bird you saw in the Forest Gallery was the Satin Bowerbird. The females and immature males are as you have described.
Hi Dave – Museum Victoria offers a free identification service. You can submit your identification request via our 'Ask the experts' webpage. Please provide us with images and, prior to sending us your enquiry, please read our identification guidelines.
Hi Tegan, there are few studies directly based in Melbourne but available literature suggests that Common Mynas compete with some native birds for nest sites and, potentially, food resources. Also, they interact with other bird species. The best reference: Higgins, Peter & Cowling. (eds) Handbook of Australian, New Zealand and Antarctic Birds. Volume 7: Boatbill to Starlings. Also, some information is available in H. Crisp & A. Lill, City slickers: habitat use and foraging in urban Common Mynas Acridotheres tristis. Some good websites for you to look at are Common Indian Myna website, Canberra Indian Myna Action Group Inc & Feral.org.au
The literature lists the birds affected by direct competition for nest sites in eastern Australia: Galah, Eastern Rosella, Sacred Kingfisher, House Sparrow and Common Starling. Aggressive interactions have been noted between Red Wattlebird, Noisy Miner and Common Starling during the breeding season. They have been seen interacting with Silver Gulls, Rock Doves, Spotted Turtle-Doves, Superb Parrot and Australian Magpie. They have been seen interacting with a cat and killing honeybees. Common Mynas are habitat generalists specialising in ground-feeding. They do not show any significant aggressive interactions with other bird species for food resources during the breeding season.
Hi Margaret, the leg bands would be from an aviary breeding program. Therefore the bird has been born and breed for commercial purposes and it would be almost impossible to obtain details through our normal sources.
Hi Joanne, what you did for the young bird should be fine. The adult birds will hear their young and find it easily, and since most birds have a poor sense of smell, they will not abandon it because it has been handled by humans. The best thing to do for these young birds is to first of all observe them and confirm that their parents are around and still tending to them. When a bird is in obvious danger from other birds what you did was a good option. I hope it is still going well.
Hi Mary, yes the wattlebird, all species, are like other like-minded honeyeaters in that they defend their food sources. They are not as aggressive as the miner as usually it is simply one or two birds being obnoxious rather than the gangs that appear with miners. So in essence yes they will chase other species from the foods but they do allow others to frequently intrude it would appear that they like to be boss but are not that obsessive about it.
Without seeing the bird or its image it is difficult to make any qualified statement on this matter. Melanism is reasonably common in birds and is usually detected as soon as the first feathers appear, so to be a truly melanistic bird this plumage would be carried from the time your colleague first obtained the bird. If however the plumage has changed since its receipt then I would look for other causes such as the food it is being fed. The apparent smaller size too could be attributed to its diet, if it has not had the correct food in its very early stage of growth then that could be the reason for its apparent diminutive size (remember the first food that pigeons receive is a special 'pigeon milk' produced by the parent).
Hi Marc, the breeding season for the Common Blackbird can last from September to January, depending on the weather conditions. During this period, they rear 2-3 broods; in a good year, a fourth may be attempted. The normal clutch size is 3-5. The incubation period is 14 days, which is also the usual time fledglings spend in the nest. The same nest is often used again if it has been a safe location for previous broods.
Hi Rhiannon,
The behaviour is fairly normal and is a fact of life. Often one of a group of nestlings hasn't developed as much as others or may have been infected by internal or external parasites. As such they may be found loitering and seemingly doing nothing. Eventually they will move off to rejoin the group or by themselves.
It is often, sadly, best to leave nature take its course and not interfere in these matters.
Hi Sid, you will probably need to contact Birds Australia for ringing research questions.
Hope this helps.
Hello Rose,
Museum Victoria's new Field Guide app. Available in both iPad and iPhone/iPod Touch versions, the app combines detailed animal descriptions with stunning imagery and sounds to provide a valuable reference that can be used in urban, bush and coastal environments.
As for the gulls collecting on roads at night this again could be caused by warm spots (underground heat storage, sunshine warming areas which maintain the heat longer than surrounds…). This would have to be checked before a logical answer given
Hi Minette, thanks for the question and the request for clarification. We have spoken with the Ornithology Collection staff and they have provided the following information for you:
Victoria's native wildlife are protected under the Wildlife Act of 1975. This act regulates how people can engage in activities relating to wildlife found within the state, including requiring a person to possess a permit in order to collect wildlife or any part thereof, such as feathers.
Regulations on wildlife, such as the Wildlife Act 1975 and other similar legislation around the world, were created to protect and conserve species and promote biodiversity. In many cases, these regulations were necessary to prevent the large scale loss of wildlife, including endangered species. Regulating who and under what conditions people can possess wildlife is one way of promoting conservation of our native fauna. That is why collecting feathers, eggs, nests, and animals are all illegal without proper authorisation. It may seem excessive to regulate picking up feathers you've found on the ground, but law enforcement cannot make the distinction between feathers that have been moulted naturally by the bird or those collected from the illegal harvest of birds from the wild.
Picking up and admiring a feather is not an offense but taking it back to your home is. Other birds often use moulted feathers to line their nests - nature finds uses for these "discarded" items.
Hi Paul,
Any of the books mentioned in the Further Reading section on this page should fit the bill. Though, Melbourne's Wildlife: a field guide to the fauna of Greater Melbourne. Museum Victoria & CSIRO Publishing, is a good general guide.
Hi Peter, Many native birds are aggressive in nature, particularly during spring, and will defend their territories against all intruders including humans and domestic pets. Magpies are best known for this behaviour, but honeyeaters, miners and wattlebirds also commonly attack other birds. The 'aggressive exclusion' by Noisy Miners of other bird species from native woodlands gets so bad at times it's listed as a threatening process for the survival of some species. This aggression includes killing other birds by hitting them on the back of the skull with their beaks. Although the Little Wattlebird is the smallest of the wattlebirds, it is also one of the larger honeyeaters, and it's no surprise that they are able to exclude and even kill other birds in your yard.

I understand there is a sticky thread on which wireless cards to buy.
I understand there is a list of "good cards" here http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?...bility_drivers
I have a large Best Buy gift card I can use to purchase a new wireless card that works out of the box in backtrack 2 final.
I am thinking about: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....#productdetail
But I dont know if it is V1 or V2, apparently V1 is bad and uses PrismGT SoftMAC
While V2 is good and uses R8187. How can I tell?
Another one I am looking at is the linksys found here:
or here http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....=1134701703165
The site says the Linksys WUSB54G v4 is good, but I don't know what version this is.
Best Buy is vague, so I don't know what will work.
My list is here:
And because of the gift card, I can buy anything at Best Buy.
Which wireless adapter would you pick?
--I know that that a list of good adapters is covered in a sticky thread, but I just cant find out which versions Best Buy has to offer, and if I am going to buy a wifi adapter JUST for backtrack, I would like it to work 100% out of the box.

Mouthing Off: The Racist Vaginas of Summer's Eve
Have you seen the new commercials starring a talking hand as your hoo-ha?
-The Mouthy Housewives
Suppose you're the product manager for Summer's Eve. Yes, THE Summer's Eve—the people famous for selling douchebags of the non-Jon Gosselin variety. And suppose one day you decide that in order to move your new products, you need to make vaginas fashionable. You know—because female sex organs are just so totally last year.
That's why you launch a new campaign called "Hail To the V", starring a hand pretending to be a talking vagina. I repeat: starring a hand pretending to be a talking vagina. As well as a website where interested parties can take vaginal quizzes, learn about vaginal power and download buttons that say, "THAT'S VAGINAL!" I don't know about you, but I can not WAIT to ask my 65-year-old mother to Bedazzle that on a t-shirt for me. Then we'll laugh and laugh and treat ourselves to some of the Summer's Eve products specifically made to "pamper our vaginas." No more Brillo pads and lye soap for MY bearded oyster, baby! My vagina's puttin' on The Ritz! We's all fancy 'n sh*t up in the Panty Hamster now!
But all kidding aside, I certainly don't have a problem with this whole Vagina Power campaign. Sure, it's tacky, disgusting and pointless, but so is everything Summer's Eve makes. I mean, do you even know a single woman who actually puts "Douchebags!" on her shopping list? Because God knows if they did, the only thing they'd bring home would probably be wearing an Ed Hardy t-shirt and a piece of crap Bluetooth. And maybe some jorts if it's one of the classy variety douchebags.
That said, what I definitely do have a problem with is a vagina that's racist. Like the the vaginas in the following commercials you may not believe you're watching sober. The first stars an African-American vagina, the second stars a Latina vagina and the third is a vagina of the white-bread honky variety usually found in states with lots of cheese and talk radio listeners. Gird your loins and take a look, my friends. It's something you've definitely never seen before.
Here's "Lady Wowsa":
Here's "Leopard Thong":
And here's "BFF":
Still with me? Or did you and your Wunder from Down Under just pass out from seeing so many ridiculous ethnic stereotypes being acted out by a f—ing hand vagina? I mean, WTF, Summer's Eve? Paint with broad strokes much? Get your artistic sensibilities from Sanford & Son? For the love of God, your creative director makes Mel Gibson look like the president of the Malibu Multicultural society. It's 2011, you idiots. We don't DO this crap anymore.
I guess we can at least take solace in the fact that they're not trying to reach the Jamaican market or we'd be treated to a hand vagina with dreadlocks and a spliff in her labia. Or the Asian market where the hand vagina would be balancing chop sticks on her clitoris and doing math problems. Or even worse, a French vagina who sticks a beret and a baguette in a place they really don't belong—unless the vagina is under contract with a niche porn producer named Le Pervy Jacques, of course. Viva la vaginal difference, mon freres.
But at any rate, after seeing those commercials, me, my vagina and every other vagina I know will most certainly avoid Summer's Eve and their vagina pampering from now on. Because not only are their products useless, but their ad campaign also happens to be borderline racist.
No, Summer's Eve. That's a**hole.

Dental Practice Marketing
Grow your practice with our team of leading experts
Dental marketing is essential to your success. With increasing competition among dentists for cosmetic, reconstructive and implant cases, and many general dentists now performing periodontal, endodontic and orthodontic procedures, it's becoming more and more challenging for dental specialists to attract the right patients. Without a well-designed dental marketing and patient education program, it's almost impossible to compete effectively.
That's where Practice Builders' dental practice marketing experience can really help. Practice Builders is one of the top companies providing marketing for dentists. We have been helping dentists market themselves since 1979. We provide proven dental marketing strategies, custom dental marketing programs, marketing tips and all kinds of dental marketing tactics designed to help you attract the patients and case-types you want most.
Practice Builders creates marketing for dentists and works with all-size budgets. A good dental marketing program need not be expensive in order to be effective. Let's say you want more of a specific case type or procedure. Maybe you are a general dentist who wants more cosmetic cases, or a periodontist who wants more implant cases. Maybe you are an orthodontist who wants more Invisalign® cases. Don't assume that your current patients know that you even offer these services. It's up to you and your staff to educate your current patients and prospective new patients.
Your current patients might think of you as one type of dentist and seek other "specialized" services from a competing dentist whom they perceive as a "specialist" in the services or procedures they want. Your job is to market your most desirable services to your current patients first. A well-branded internal dental marketing program can present your services to your patients – and show them why they should choose you over competing dentists for the services they want.
Your staff should also be trained on how to present your services and offer them to patients in a professional way. Internal marketing programs for dentists typically deliver one of the highest returns for a reasonable investment of marketing dollars. In addition to creating marketing for dentists to suit any budget, Practice Builders can train your staff on case presentation and acceptance.
Now, more than ever, you need strategic dental marketing help. Whether you are a general, cosmetic or pediatric dentist, an orthodontist, endodontist, periodontist, prosthodontist or oral surgeon, you need the kind of dental marketing help only Practice Builders can provide. To learn more about the many ways we can help you with today's dental practice marketing, including Internet dental marketing, call (855)898-2710.

zach619 and zaGaffer are right, PB OB and MB are good for beginners, especially PB. In the summer though, it's madness...not exactly "uncrowded" or "family oriented".
Johnnydon'tsurf has a great recommendation for San Elijo/Cardiff. Very mellow breaks with mellow crews for the most part, and not as crowded as the City breaks.
My personal recommendation would be any of the North County areas, particularly between Cardiff and Carlsbad. Plenty of glassy and uncrowded breaks, away from the hassle and urban "ick" of PB MB and OB. Leucadia and Carlsbad have tons of uncrowded glassy consistent surf...just find a decent place to park and walk down the stairs.
I would definitely bring a 3/2 for late June. A short sleeve spring suit would probably work too. You won't be trunking it unless there's a heat wave. "June Gloom" usually burns off by 11am-noon, but gives way to daily NW onshore winds of 10-15 knots.
BTW: I was born and raised in SD, lived there for 30 years, and surfed it for 15 of those years. I still make annual trips there. I've traveled the entire coast there, as well as Tijuana to Cabo. I have also surfed OCMD and OBX as well.

Lady Gaga voted 'Time's' second most influential of the decade
Listen to Lady Gaga on iHeartRadio
Lady Gaga may have been sidelined by a hip injury, but she's still considered among the most powerful public figures out there. To mark the tenth anniversary of its popular list, Time started a March Madness-style bracket asking online readers to pick the "most influential" person of the decade.
The Mother Monster came in second place, just behind Burmese freedom fighter Aung San Suu Kyi.
Some of the most popular "most influential" list makers were put into the categories of Entertainment, Politics, Technology and Icons. Gaga beat out George Clooney, Tina Fey, and J.K. Rowling to win the Entertainment bracket, and then earned more votes than President Barack Obama, making her the second-most influential person of the decade, according to Time's online readers' poll.

MOBILE, AL -- Carts Blanche has partnered with Jofemar to create a moveable vending machine bank that uses its VendaCarts trailers and Jofemar's versatile vending machines. The combination could be used as a mini convenience store at outdoor events like fairs and festivals.
VendaCarts can be equipped with up to nine built-in vending machines, along with ATMs, digital signage boards and microwaves. Once on location, both sides of the trailer raise, creating awnings and providing access to the machines. The trailer design allows daily business activities to be accomplished by one person.
Jofemar vending machines are designed with the Easy-Flex system, which enables them to vend a wide range of product types, shapes and sizes, bringing consumers anything they'd find in a micromarket. The manufacturer's equipment range includes ambient, refrigerated and frozen models that can be equipped with product delivery arms designed to vend delicate products without hits or falls. Jofemar also manufactures a vender with a high dimension product elevator designed to deliver oversize products.

See your dentist every six months. Your teeth may not look dirty from the outside, but bacteria and plaque lurks in places you cannot see in the mirror.
Hello sir, I am suffering from dental problem (pariya) from last six month. Can you suggest what should be done?
Hi I had one of my tooth filled today. After removing the tooth's decayed portion my dentist asked me to rinse.

What are Dental Crowns and Tooth Bridges?
Both crowns and most bridges are fixed prosthetic devices. Unlike removable devices such as dentures, which you can take out and clean daily, crowns and bridges are cemented onto existing teeth or implants, and can only be removed by a dentist.
How do Crowns Work?
A crown is used to entirely cover or "cap" a damaged tooth. Besides strengthening a damaged tooth, a crown can be used to improve its appearance, shape or alignment. A crown can also be placed on top of an implant to provide a tooth-like shape and structure for function. Porcelain or ceramic crowns can be matched to the color of your natural teeth. Other materials include gold and metal alloys, acrylic and ceramic. These alloys are generally stronger than porcelain and may be recommended for back teeth. Porcelain bonded to a metal shell is often used because it is both strong and attractive.
PEDIATRIC DENTISTRY:- Pediatric dentists are dedicated to the oral health of children from infancy through the teen years. They have the experience and qualifications to care for a child's teeth, gums, and mouth throughout the various stages of childhood.
Children begin to get their baby teeth during the first 6 months of life. By age 6 or 7 years, they start to lose their first set of teeth, which eventually are replaced by secondary, permanent teeth.
Without proper dental care, children face possible oral decay and disease that can cause a lifetime of pain and complications. Today, early childhood dental caries—an infectious disease—is 5 times more common in children.
Treatments Provided for pediatric patient:
Provide comprehensive oral health care that includes the following:
• Preventive dental care including cleaning and fluoride treatments, as well as nutrition and diet recommendations
• Habit counseling (for example, pacifier use and thumb sucking)
• Early assessment and treatment for straightening teeth and correcting an improper bite (orthodontics)
• Repair of tooth cavities or defects
• Diagnosis of oral conditions associated with several diseases.
• Management of gum diseases and conditions including ulcers, short frenulae, mucoceles, and pediatric periodontal disease
• Care for dental injuries (for example, fractured, displaced, or knocked-out teeth)
COSMETIC DENTISTRY:- The aims of cosmetic dentistry is to create a beautiful and natural look.
Cosmetic bonding or composite veneers-If the gap between the two teeth is very small, closing the gap with composite bonding provides a quick solution to the problem. Bonding or veneers provides a minimally invasive solution to closing the gap.
Gaps due to missing teeth-If the gap is due to a missing tooth, veneers or orthodontic treatment would be inappropriate. The missing tooth needs to be replaced, both for aesthetic and functional reasons – a restoration would prevent the teeth on either side of the gap from "shifting" towards the gap. Solutions to replace a gap due to missing teeth could be a partial denture, a dental bridge or a dental implant.
Dental veneers (sometimes called porcelain veneers or dental porcelain laminates) are wafer-thin, custom-made shells of tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front surface of teeth to improve your appearance. These shells are bonded to the front of the teeth changing their color, shape, size, or length.
Porcelain veneers resist stains better than resin veneers and better mimic the light reflecting properties of natural teeth. Resin veneers are thinner and require removal of less of the tooth surface before placement. You will need to discuss the best choice of veneer material for you with your dentist.
What Types of Problems Do Dental Veneers Fix?
Veneers are routinely used to fix:
- Teeth that are discolored — either because of root canal treatment; stains from tetracycline or other drugs, excessive fluoride or other causes; or the presence of large resin fillings that have discolored the tooth.
- Teeth that are worn down.
- Teeth that are chipped or broken.
- Teeth that are misaligned, uneven, or irregularly shaped (for example, have craters or bulges in them).
- Teeth with gaps between them (to close the space between these teeth).

Notes from a Biographer
Sonny Clark, Part 2By Sam Stephenson
Monk called the tune "Two Timer"; Clark gave it a new name so he could claim composer's royalties. It was the move of a desperate, depleted junky. (W. Eugene Smith had cameras, lenses, and other equipment stolen from his loft by jazz junkies all the time, but, an addict himself, he wasn't one to judge. The thefts would leave him both distraught and ambivalent.) According to Robin D. G. Kelley's remarkable recent biography of Monk, the elder master treated Clark like a "troubled younger brother," and he never did anything about the stolen tune. Chances are that by the time Monk heard McLean's record and realized what had happened, Clark was dead, or in some other condition that made a reprimand irrelevant.
In the last eighteen months of Clark's life, he would climb to daylight for brief periods, breath clean air, play some beautiful music, and then sink to lower and lower depths. In the August 1962 issue of the invaluable, idiosyncratic Canadian jazz magazine, Coda, there was this report from New York by Fred Norsworthy:
One of the saddest sights these days is the terrible condition of one of the nation's foremost, and certainly original pianists. Having been around for many years he came into his own in 1959 and no one deserved it more than he. I feel that something should be done about drug addiction before we lose many more artists. I saw him several times in the past three months and was shocked to see one of our jazz greats in such pitiful shape. Unfortunately, the album dates that he keeps getting only help his addiction get worse instead of better. Whether or not he licks this problem at this stage of the game remains to be seen. In some cases people refuse help and the loss of a close friend was no help either. If anything he took a turn for the worse and disappeared for 3 weeks. However right now should he die it will at least be better than living a slow death with no relief in sight.
The pianist is almost certainly Sonny Clark. That same month, he cut two classic Blue Note albums under the leadership of saxophonist Dexter Gordon, Go and A Swinging Affair. When Clark died five months later, Gordon remembered these sessions in a letter to Blue Note impresarios Alfred Lion and Francis Wolff: Clark had "almost totally given up" on his life, Gordon wrote. Yet judging from the surviving albums, he still cooked on piano. Several of Clark's solos are top notch, but in this rhythm section with Butch Warren on bass and Billy Higgins on drums, he conducts a clinic on how to play sensitive, sparkling piano accompaniment behind a soloing saxophonist, in this case the atmospheric Gordon. Clark didn't appear to give up on anything musically. Many years later Gordon remembered Go as among his career favorites.

I'm not usually on this board, so I can't reply to you further. Your error is happening because Armitage is not connected to the postgres database it shares with the Metasploit Framework. Technically, when it can't connect, it should warn you and not let you go further. I will try to force an error in my database setup later and see if I can start armitage without connecting to the database. This shouldn't be possible, but your error tells me that it is.
How do I know this is the case? I looked at the stack trace. You're getting errors from Ruby because Armitage is directly calling Metasploit's db.* methods in its RPC API. Armitage does not do this any more and it hasn't since November 2011. I took a look at my source code and saw that this will happen when Armitage can't connect to your database.
I don't know what's wrong with your database configuration. The easiest thing to do is to reinstall the Metasploit Framework and go from there. The command to uninstall is in /opt/metasploit.

Okay so this is my first forum post, please bear with me.
Pretty much brand new desktop PC running Windows 7
Edimax 11N USB wireless LAN utility (EW-7717Un)
BT5 R3 boot from a USB pen, although perhaps worth mentioning it will only work if I choose the no DRM option.
On typing iwconfig, wlan0 does show up, but all the values provided are 'off', 'no' or '0'. The BT5 wireless manager is picking up nearby networks, however, leading me to believe this isn't a driver issue.
Airmon-ng start wlan0 - nothing happens, it says 'interface, chipset' etc but no details below it.
On typing airodump-ng wlan0 I get 'ARP Linktype set to 1, expected ARP<numbers>' .... 'ensure RFMON is enabled' ...
I also tried airodump-ng mon0 - no such device.
I acquired the BSSID of said network and tried pointing reaver to it with the command
'reaver -i wlan0 -b xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx'
Response was 'waiting for beacon from <bssid>' but nothing happens after this.
I also tried 'sudo iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor' and got:
'SET failed on device wlan0; invalid argument'.
The signal strength of the required network is about 80%, and also worth mentioning I don't have an Internet connection at the moment, so any sys files or updates I need are being brought on 2nd USB pen/copied to the C drive so I can use the '1TB file system' to access it if required, although that hasn't proved much use.
It's doing my head in. I just want to get on this network.
Any help much appreciated,

Ex-Alibaba Executive's Fund Raises More Money
As Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba Group prepares for a U.S. listing that could raise more than $15 billion, one former executive of the company is doing a bit of fundraising of his own.
David Wei, the former chief executive of Alibaba marketplace Alibaba.com, said Wednesday that his private equity fund, Vision Knight Capital, just raised $550 million in a second round of investment. Wei founded Vision Knight in 2011 and raised $250 million in its first round of fundraising in the same year.
Wei's list of investors for that first round contains several Chinese finance heavyweights, and most are also participating in the second round, according to Wei. They include Alibaba Group founder and Executive Chairman Jack Ma; PCCW, Hong Kong's largest telecom operator; as well as sovereign and pension funds, Wei said. Wei also said that Ma is investing his own money, and that Alibaba is not an investor.
Vision Knight has focused its investments mainly on China's Internet and e-commerce sectors. In 2012 and early 2013 it took a stake in 91 Wireless Websoft, one of China's largest mobile app stores, and got a handsome return when Internet search giant Baidu bought the firm last year for $1.9 billion, in one of China's largest Internet acquisitions. Vision Knight is also an investor in Nasdaq-listed 500.com, a Chinese online sports lottery operator, according to Wei.
Wei was the CEO of Alibaba.com, a marketplace that connects Chinese suppliers with domestic and overseas buyers, for five years. In 2011, he resigned and left Alibaba to take responsibility for a scandal in which some Alibaba.com employees helped merchants maintain fraudulent product listings. The company said at the time that more than 2,300 merchants on its site committed fraud, and about 100 Alibaba.com employees were allowing the fraudsters to run their businesses on the site by helping them evade the site's screening measures. Alibaba said Wei wasn't involved in any of the fraudulent activities.

2. Rounds will be 1min long with 5mins rests, to encourage the throwing of spectacular maddies. Fights will be interspersed between these rest periods so the blood hugry crowd will be treated to a conveyer belt of madness.
3. Mandatory drug taking will take place to ensure all partcipants are on every concievable performance enhacing drug. On special events hallucinogens will also be provided.
4. As a half time entertainment piece a skinny man in underwear will have a bag of enraged ferrets dropped over him.

You didn't know that promotional highlighters weren't just for highlighting? Truth be told, neither did we. But since our custom highlighters are one of our most popular items to tuck into swag bags, trade show kits and office supply orders, we figured someone in the audience would appreciate an idea for having fun with highlighters.
If you have kids, they could certainly enjoy an unusual project with your personalized highlighters – and if you don't have kids, why not grab one of the imprinted highlighters off your desk and test these out for fun? Maybe your place of business embraces a fun vibe à la "The Office," and if so, you could possibly get away with doing this with your co-workers. If not…well, then enjoy this trick with promotional highlighters safely at home.
What is the trick? Making glowing water with the fluid from your custom highlighters! The ink in your personalized highlighters is actually non-toxic fluorescent dye, which produces a glowing light when a blacklight is shined on it. Here are the steps to making glowing water from your imprinted highlighters:
On a stable surface, carefully cut a highlighter in half with a knife. Do not let children do this step! Then, you want to:
There's no need to cut open more than one of your promotional highlighters for other projects, such as glowing bubbles. You can re-use the felt for several more projects. Save the rest of your custom highlighters for actual office use and for giving out to clients; after all, they are a great marketing tool, and you don't want that to go to waste!

Zend_Filter supplies a set of commonly needed filters, but developers
will often need to write custom filters for their particular use cases. The task of writing
a custom filter is facilitated by implementing

USC shares prestigious national award for telepsychiatry
By Margaret Lamb; firstname.lastname@example.com; 803-777-5400
A statewide telepsychiatry initiative that is changing the way emergency psychiatric patients are treated has earned a prestigious national award for its innovative care.
The program is a partnership among the Department of Neuropsychiatry and Behavioral Science at the University of South Carolina School of Medicine, the S.C. Department of Mental Health, the S.C. Hospital Association and the S.C. Department of Health and Human Services.
Dr. Meera Narasimhan, professor and chairman of the USCSOM Department of Neuropsychiatry and Behavioral Science and director of research initiatives, and John Magill, state director of the S.C. Department of Mental Health, accepted the Psychiatric Services Achievement Award (Silver Award) at the Institute of Psychiatric Services meeting of the American Psychiatric Association recently in San Francisco.
USC President Harris Pastides said the award was recognition of the achievements of the USC School of Medicine and its public and private partners.
"Solving problems today requires creativity, imagination and a plan to work together to bring ideas to fruition," Pastides said "This partnerships taps into all these, along with a strong desire to improve health care in our state. This award is well deserved."
"We are so proud of this honor," Narasimhan said. "Telepsychiatry is an excellent example of how public, private and academic partners can work together to improve access and affordability and provide quality care for the citizens of our state. This innovative project shows that, if you do it alone you go faster, but if you do it together you go farther."
Magill said the partnership is an outstanding example of collaboration that benefits the citizens of South Carolina.
"This is a great model with the South Carolina Department of Mental Health, the University of South Carolina School of Medicine, the Department of Health and Human Services, the South Carolina Hospital Association, Office of Research and Statistics and other stakeholders working in concert to address the mental health needs of the state in a time of declining resources," Magill said.
The awards have been presented since 1949 to innovative programs that deliver services to the mentally ill or disabled, have overcome obstacles, and can serve as models for other programs.
The program, which is the first of its kind in the nation, uses telecommunication and information technologies to connect patients in need of urgent care in an emergency department setting with psychiatrists who can diagnose and prescribe immediate treatment. The telepsychiatry services are available at 25 hospital emergency departments in the Palmetto State and provide emergency psychiatric care access 24 hours a day, seven days a week. More than 8,400 patients have been served since the program was implemented in March 2009.
Narasimhan and Magill said the statewide telepsychiatry initiative shows immense promise for improving care and outcomes for mental health patients in hospital emergency departments and said the success would not be possible without the support of the participating partners.
"This has the potential to revolutionize and improve patient care." She said. "One-quarter of Americans have some form of mental illness, and depression is the second-largest public health problem in the United States. Ultimately, this is about saving lives and improving quality of life for patients and their families."
The project is funded by an R01 grant from National Institute of Mental Health to USC and a Duke Endowment grant to the S.C. Department of Mental Health. Magill is the lead on the Duke Endowment Grant, and Narasimhan the lead on the National Institute of Mental Health Ro1 award.
