MultiNet ECO kit announcement The following ECO kit is now available for MultiNet: ECO: KERNEL-UPDATE-060_A052 Description: Multiple changes Release date: 5-DEC-2007 Ranking: 2 Max ranking: 1 Versions: V5.2A Requisites: ftp://ftp.multinet.process.com/patches/multinet052/kernel-update-060_a052.zip To search the MultiNet ECO database, please visit the following URL: http://www.multinet.process.com/eco.html For more information, contact Process Software via: E-mail: [email protected] Phone: 1-800-394-8700 The ECO kit README contents are below. ----------------------------------------------------------- KERNEL-UPDATE-060_A052 - Kernel ECO kit Rev 6.0 for MultiNet V5.2A 4-Dec-2007 Copyright © 2007 Process Software, LLC This kit updates MultiNet V5.2 Rev A with a new version of MULTINET.EXE and IF_SE.EXE for MultiNet for OpenVMS (VMS/VAX V5.5-2 and later, VMS/Alpha V6.1 and later), or MULTINET_KERNEL.EXE for MultiNet for VMS/Integrity V8.2 and later. The ranking for this ECO is 2. The overall ranking for it is 1 (KERNEL-UPDATE-020_A052). The following changes have been made in this kit: - Correct an error in managing routing table update timers that can cause a system crash. (DE 10633 KERNEL-UPDATE-060_A052) ECO Rank: 2 - Correct an error that limited the number of PD interfaces that could be defined on Integrity systems to 8. (DE 10635 KERNEL-UPDATE-060_A052) ECO Rank: 2 - Correct potential routing problems when using IP Cluster aliases. (KERNEL-UPDATE-060_A052) ECO Rank: 3 ---------------------------------------- This kit also includes the following changes from previous ECO kits: - Allow a new bind to an address and port when there is an existing socket that is disconnected and has SOREUSEADDR or SOREUSEPORT set. (DE 10616 KERNEL-UPDATE-052_A052) ECO Rank: 3 - Change the internal priority of memory allocation so that it is more important than packet processing. This can help avoid panics due to being out of memory in very busy systems. (KERNEL-UPDATE-052_A052) ECO Rank: 3 - Allow the IPv6 STF (6 to 4) interface to send the IPv4 encapsulated IPv6 packets through a relay router when a route has been sent up to one. Use the following to set up a route: $ mult set/route/add=(dest=0::0,gateway=2002:c058:6301::)/proto=i6 This requires that your system is able to route IPv4 packets to 184.108.40.206. (KERNEL-UPDATE-051_A052) ECO Rank: 3 - Reduction in alignment faults on Integrity systems. (KERNEL-UPDATE-051_A052) ECO Rank: 3 - Correct errors in how the NTYDRIVER port routines link to the terminal on Integrity systems. This patch is necessary for Point Secure's System Detective to work with MultiNet on Integrity systems. (DE 10570 KERNEL-UPDATE-040_A052) ECO Rank: 2 - Correct problems with processing some IPv6 packets. RTSOLD-010_A052 should also be installed so that the Router Solicitation packets are correctly formed. (DE 10549 KERNEL-UPDATE-030_A052) ECO Rank: 3 - Correct problems with cluster alias addresses. (DE 10551 KERNEL-UPDATE-030_A052) ECO Rank: 3 - Correct some errors in IPv6 code that could cause a system crash. - Add controls to routing header 0 (zero) processing for IPv6. Routing headers are disabled unless one of the following is true: The MultiNet kernel variable ip6_rht0 is greater than zero, or ip6_forwarding is non-zero and ip6_rht0 is zero. The default is that ip6_forwarding is zero (end node/host) and that ip6_rht0 is -1 (don't process). A processing limit of 1 routing header has also been added. - Improve IPv6 PCB lookup algorithms. - Correct a buffer management error that can cause crashes when DECnet over IP or the PWIPDRIVER are being used. (DE 10525 ECO KERNEL-UPDATE-020_A052) ECO Rank: 1 - Correct an error that can cause the FIN flag to be set on the second to last packet of a TCP connection. This causes the other side to drop the final packet and any data that may be contained in it. (DE 10508 ECO KERNEL-UPDATE-010_A052) ECO Rank: 1 You must reboot after installing this ECO kit for the changes to take effect. [End of ECO announcement]

This will go through your packages list and checks which packages have been installed that are no longer needed. This is useful to clean up your packages from time to time.Code:# apt-get autoremove
Using apt-get
This is a small quick reference post on using apt-get in BT
There is a ton of info about it throughout the internet. I merely wanted to post the basics for those that may be to lazy, or unwilling to look elsewhere.
So first and foremost:
There are 3 basic installers in BT4 apt-get the basic command line package
management system. aptitude is a curses based front end for apt-get.
And synaptic which is a gui version. Other than that there really are no major
Now lets look at some of the commands that are available for us.
The manual page read it.Code:# man apt-get
Gives us the names of all the installed packages we have on the system.Code:# apt-cache pkgnames
The list is not really to organized so add a | pipe and sort to the end and then it will alphabetized.
add the name of a program that you want to search for. The command will show software packages with the expression you entered. One problem with apt is that it really needs the exact name of a package for better results.Code:# apt-cache search programname
Pretty simple since all the work is now done for you.Code:# apt-get install packagename
There is a caveat to this method of package installation. You can't pass any
configuration options to the program. To remove a package just the opposite
should be done.
This will remove the package but may not remove all configuration files. In order for that do insteadCode:# apt-get remove packagname
Next updating software.Code:# apt-get remove --purge packagename
This updates the list of currently installed software, this is the same list that we saw earlier. Next actually updating said list.Code:# apt-get update
Now the thing about this command is that it will upgrade to the most recentCode:# apt-get upgrade
version of all packages on the system. This may or may not always be the best way of doing business. Some packages may not work as well as the older ones. Use with care. use a -s before upgrade to simulate, or see which software will be updated. A better way is to use dist-upgrade
This will upgrade all packages with conflict resolution and discarding less important packages for more important ones. There are many other commands but the above should help get you started working with apt. Hope it helps.Code:# apt-get dist-upgrade
Credits: This tutorial was created with help from the Debian APT How-To which can be found here: Debian -- Debian Documentation Project
And the man page
Feel free to add to this thread with your own commands, information, etc.
To be successful here you should read all of the following.
If you are new to Back|Track
Back|Track Wiki
Failure to do so will probably get your threads deleted or worse.
This will go through your packages list and checks which packages have been installed that are no longer needed. This is useful to clean up your packages from time to time.Code:# apt-get autoremove
Some packages need to be configured, mostly done when you first download the package. With this command you can reconfigure. If that won't work try a --purge remove and reinstall with apt-get install (see below)Code:# dpkg-reconfigure packagename
Oh and don't try to do a
before a fresh installation and afterwards just apt-get install all the packages from packages.txt again. I think that won't work most of the time. One of my big apt-get mistakes at the beginningCode:# apt-cache pkgnames > packages.txt
Equally useful is dpkg -l (which lists installed packages).
dd if=/dev/swc666 of=/dev/wyze
thanks man for the post, really helping, now I understand how to deal with apt-get easily

[quote:Spitting Into The Wind:MV8yMDExOTY2XzMzODA4NDYwX0MyQjAxOTNG] [quote:Anonymous Coward 20541213:MV8yMDExOTY2XzMzODA4MjUzXzc0MTk2N0Y0] Women can help Our Lord in other ways. JESUS CHOSE ONLY MEN FOR THE PRIESTHOOD Jesus gave us the example when he chose only men to be his Apostles. He ordained these men the first priests of his Church. He could have chosen at least one woman to be an Apostle if he had wanted women to be priests in his Church. Some claim that Jesus only chose men because that was the custom of the society. This argument doesn't hold water because Jesus broke with many customs of his day. Having women as disciples was extremely unusual for the society. Jesus also went against custom concerning divorce and remarriage ([u]Matthew 19:3-9[/u]), the obligation to care for one's parents ([u]Mark 7:9-13[/u]), the weekly Sabbath (John 5:10-17; Matthew 12:1-15), dietary restrictions (Mark 7:14-15), etc. The Apostles followed Jesus' example and ordained only men to the priesthood. "The Church recognizes herself to be bound by this choice made by the Lord himself. For this reason the ordination of women is not possible" (Catechism, 1577). JESUS WAS MALE The priests act "in persona Christi", that is in the person of Christ. Inasmuch as the priest images Christ to the faithful, and since Christ was male, it would be inappropriate to have women priests. BRIDE GROOM AND BRIDE At Communion the priest represents Christ, the Bride Groom, offering the Wedding Cup to his bride, the church. If the priest were a woman it would image [color=red][u]a lesbian marriage[/u][/color] to the faithful. This would be an abomination ([u]Romans 1:24-27[/u]). OLD TESTAMENT PRIESTHOOD Since the priest in the Old Testament prefigured Christ, the priest in the New Testament as the representative of Christ should also be male. St. Thomas Aquinas noted in his Summa Theologiae, "[u]Christ is the source of all priesthood: the priest of the old law was a figure of Christ, and the priest of the new law acts in the person of Christ[/u]." AUTHORITY Women should not teach men in the Church. "I do not permit woman to act as teacher" ([u]2 Timothy 2:12[/u]). If women cannot teach men in the Church then she cannot be a priest whose major responsibility is to teach. MARY If any woman was going to be a priest Lord would have certainly chosen his mother to be the first. Jesus' refusal to ordain his mother is strong evidence against having women priests. GOD'S CHOICE OF PEOPLE Jesus could have been born into any people at any time. However, he chose to be born into a society that had a male-only priesthood. The concept of female priests was well known throughout the ancient world. [u]The Jews were surrounded by societies that had female priests. Yet God never led the Jews to accept such a practice[/u]. [/quote] Priesthood? You are playing the hypocrite, criticizing those who make the transition between the Old (physical) and New (spiritual) Testament because you refuse to see past your brainwashing to understand truth. We are ALL priests (servants to the Lord for and in His Temple made without human hands, the Body of Yeshua in spirit. The old physical priesthood was done away with. 1 Peter 2:9 But you are a chosen race who serve as Priests for The Kingdom, a holy people, a redeemed assembly; you should proclaim the praises of him who called you from darkness into his excellent light. Revelation 1:6 And he has made us The Priestly Kingdom to God and his Father; to him be glory and Empire to the eternity of eternities. Amen. [/quote]
Original Message
you bet they are!
don't let anyone tell you that women are to be silent.
God used many powerful women to teach, preach, judge, prophesy, etc.
God called and used women preachers in the Old Testament.
a. DEBORAH - Judges 4:4-5. Deborah was a Judge for both civil and criminal cases. The children of Israel came to her for judgment. She was the chief ruler of Israel for 40 years, giving orders to the Generals and all the army. She did the work of an evangelist, prophetess, Judge, and a preacher. God gave her authority over the mighty (Judges 5:13).
b. MIRIAM - Exodus 15:20; Numbers 12:1; Micah 6:4. She was a Prophetess and a Song Leader in Israel.
c. HULDAH - 2 Kings 22:14. Five men went to Sister Huldah and communed with her. She spoke to a congregation of men concerning the book of the Law. A female preached to a man's congregation, and her message was taken to the nation and produced a revival.
d. MAHER-SHALAL-HASH-BAZ'S MOTHER - Isaiah 8:3. She was a prophetess.
8. God called and used women preachers in the New Testament.
a. The first message of the Resurrection of Christ was spoken by women to a group of men.
b. Anna - Luke 2:36-38. She must have prophesied in church, because she did not depart from the temple.
c. Phillip had 4 daughters who prophesied. Acts 21:9.
d. Priscilla assisted Paul in his revival meeting and even taught Apollos in the way of the Lord more perfectly.
e. Phebe - Romans 16:1-2. Paul commended Phoebe to the Church at Rome and requested that they assist her in her business. She was one of Paul's assistants in the work of the Lord and delivered the Book of Romans to the people from the hand of Paul.
9. There is no sound reason why a woman or man should not preach the Gospel. There is a desperate need in the church for more workers. Laborers are few, and God will use any and all who will go for Him. Some say God will not use a woman to preach, because "The woman was deceived," but remember Romans 5:12: "Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world." It seems to indicate that Adam was just as guilty as Eve in the fall of man. If anyone should be kept from preaching because of sin, it would be Adam. But God does not forbid anyone from preaching, because of Adam's or Eve's sin.
10. 1 Cor. 14: 34-35 does not say anything about women preachers. If Paul intended this verse as a general rule to bar all women from speaking in church, then they cannot teach Sunday School, testify, pray, prophesy, sing, or even get saved, and this would contradict the rest of the Bible (Acts 2:4; Acts 2:16-18).
Paul was rather dealing with a particular problem in the church. Women were not educated as were the men in that day; therefore the women would talk back and forth to their husbands in church and ask questions concerning the sermon. Paul said, "If they will learn anything, let them ask their husbands at home; for it is a shame for women to speak in the church." If they want to talk things over let them wait until they get home. This rule is still good for the church today, where people are talking and causing confusion in the church service. They should not speak in church. (Not in the back of the church either before or after services.)
If a woman cannot speak in church, then she cannot speak in prayer meeting, young people's service, etc., for who can deny that Sunday School and Prayer meeting, and Youth work are parts of church? Christ's Church is not a building, but rather it is found where two or three are gathered together in His name, whether at a street meeting, in a tent, a home, church, classroom or anywhere else.
11. 1 Timothy 2:12 is not a blanket rule for all women of all churches. If it were, then the women could not speak at all, for the same verse that tells them not to teach also tells them to be silent.
If all women had to keep silent in church, then that would be promoting disobedience to God, for they could not prophesy, pray, testify, sing, exhort, do personal work, or even get saved.
Whenever an interpretation to a verse contradicts the rest of the teaching of the Bible, we know this interpretation is incorrect, for the Holy Spirit will never contradict His own Word.

Barbara - from Carrollton, VA
Using a serrated knife, trim of the edges of the cake and cut the cake into an even rectangle. Cut into individual cake squares or diamonds, 1 1/2 by 2 inches with a sharp, serrated knife. An electric knife also works well. Cookie cutters with simple shapes can also be used to cut the cake, though if the cake is too thick, you might need to imprint the shape with the cutter, then cut the petit four with a knife.

Nicked from the UG.
Poor Cruz, seems to have had a run of bad luck.
Barao finally being recognized as the champ. Only 12-14 months too late.
Props to Faber for stepping up on short notice.

Cruz has the worst luck ever. Would love to see Faber win the belt.
Im gona come at you like a SPIDERMONKEY.....you hear that a SPIDERMONKEY
For some reason I've never been a fan of Cruz. Barao would have fucked him up so all is right. Faber will lose quicker than last time.
I'm no gynecologist but I know a cunt when I see one.
Barao on a whole new level
www.SAMIBERIK.com WME-IMG
Great, so Faber can have yet another excuse for when he losses in a title fight, like every single other one (even if it is a legit reason)
I was looking forward to his next shot being a fair one with no possible excuses.
Gutted for Cruz, the guy has no luck.
Imo Faber will fare better against Barao than the first time, I'm guessing that ever since the first Barao loss he will have been working on what he thinks went wrong in that fight, also he may have been training for Barao recently with the possibility of Cruz getting injured again and him being asked to step in. Remember this is a short notice fight for Barao too as he was training for a totally different style in Cruz.
I'm thinking it will be Barao in the 49-46, 49-46, 48-47 range.
Not domination, but clearly get the w.

Cold-weather riding starts here.
Amassing a cycling wardrobe for the cooler months can be a daunting affair. With all of the different choices and possibilities you need to prepare for, it can also be a bit spendy. We don't always have room in the closet or the budget for all the precisely specialized gear that we'd like, so items like the Pearl Izumi P.R.O. Thermal Bib Shorts are among the first pieces of cold-weather kit that we pick up as the seasons change.
The P.R.O. Shorts use Pearl Izumi's Thermal fabric throughout their construction. Thermal is recommended for temperatures between 40 and 60 degrees Fahrenheit, so it slots in as the cool-weather option in Pearl's clothing line. The difference between it and the cold-weather gear, PI Softshell, is that the latter incorporates wind and water resistant fabric. The Thermal fabric focuses solely on warmth and is more breathable than the Softshell. If you don't plan on riding in torrential downpours and you layer to protect against wind, then the Thermal is your ideal choice.
Since they're shorts, the P.R.O. Thermals offer you the opportunity to wear them alone for cool days or add leg or knee warmers on a ride when the temperature drops. As one of our resident bike gurus puts it, "warmers afford you more real-time layering opportunities." If you overheat on a climb or during hard intervals, you can quickly slip them off. This is in stark contrast to full-length thermal tights, where the only option is ungracefully folding the bottoms up over your lower legs where they then flap about in the breeze.
The shorts include Pearl's P.R.O. Anatomic 1:1 Chamois, which has a varied geography of light foam density ranging from 4 to 13 millimeters. Its seamless construction is unobtrusive with no abrupt edges or goofy little designs, just the right amount of support and comfort where you want it. In an industry that often thrives on extravagant design, the 1:1 insert is refreshingly minimalist and effective.
The Pearl Izumi P.R.O. Thermal Bib Shorts - Men's are available in five sizes ranging from Small to XX-Large in the color Black.

Covers a variety of needs...
I've used these thermal bib shorts in winter with tights, but I especially love them during the cool Spring rides. They're definitely a favorite when the weather is under 60 degrees. Great quality, perfect chamois. The legs never rise out of place. You can't beat the price/quality comparison of the Pearl Izumi P.R.O. line bibs, especially on a Backcountry discount. I'm 5'5', 148 lbs, and wear Small. True to size.
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: Medium
I have tried a few different brands of bib shorts, and I keep coming back to Pearl Izumi. They fit me perfectly, exactly as per their sizing chart. They are very comfortable as well. These were especially great when added with the customer service provided by Backcountry. All around awesome!
Christmas gift; a little tight.
- Familiarity: I returned this product before using it
- Fit: Runs small
- Size Bought: large
My husband wears Pearl Izumi, Large, but found these shorts to be tight around the legs. I am getting him a X-large. It is just after Christmas, perhaps this accounts for the need of a larger size. :-)
The Pro Thermal Shorts will be great for the Fat Bike in the snow.
Winter Wonderland
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: Large
I love these thermal bibs! I ride/train all year round in the dry but cold Utah weather. These bibs have worked out well and are my favorite winter kit.
I am 6 foot and 165-170 pounds. The Large fits well--I am right between the medium and Large. I could have gone either way.
I have had these for two winter seasons now. The quality of construction is fantastic--they don't show any wear. I used them quite a bit when the temps drop below 60, and down to 40. Teamed up with knee warmers, leg warmers, or under tights , they give me lots of winter options. They are made from a wind cutting fleece lined material, warm enough, used with leg warmers, to ride down into the mid 40's when dry outside.
The chamois is well done--I don't notice it, which is the way I like it. The leg length works well for me and they stay in place well enough to hold leg/knee warmers really well. The bib construction is comfortable.
I would buy them again. Give them a try!
Typical PI fit, really warm material
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: Large
The fit is the typical PI fit. The inside of the material has a soft nap that is warm from moment putting on.
best thermal bibs
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: Runs large
Ive had 2 pairs of these that have lasted three winters of cold weather riding and commuting. They are now threadbare but have been worn a ton.
1. they do fit roomier than traditional bibs but I think that makes them warmer
2. they are long enough to have good overlap w knee or leg warmers
3. chamois average, but has held up well
4. fabric remains warm after repeated washings
I'm really happy with these for what they are- thermal bibs that allow you to ride in sub 20 degree temps without freezing your nads off or wearing a second pair of tights. Comfortable into the 40's,, so you don't get hot on the way home from work. Ive owned panache, castelli and capo thermal bibs and I like these best. In general, I don't like PI bibs but these are great
Good Functional Winter Bib Short
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: Runs large
The thermal fabric is pretty warm. I like the functionality of using these with either knee warmers or full leg warmers. Only gripe, the chamois is not the greatest.
Sizing , Chamois and Function All Good
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
I always return to Pearl because the medium product fits my 5'6" frame at 158 pounds reliably and the Pro Thermal shorts have evolved in good ways over the years at a good price point . I found the current 1:1 chamois to work really well on long rides this summer so was pleased to see it in new Thermals that I use for a late season event and winter riding in Steamboat . Since I always use leg warmers or tights with these
thermal shorts , I found the extra length to nicely anchor warmers . Assos and Castelli have great details , but for basic cold riding , the Pearl Pros do the job really well .
Fabric is NOT Soft.
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
These shorts fit very poor with tons of baggy in the front but the leg bands are tight. The material they use is very harsh on your undercarriage as well..
Long and roomy
- Familiarity: I returned this product before using it
I'm 5'8", 32" waist - the legs on the medium came down over my the tops of my knees.

Sometimes, when I'm away from my local congregation here in Tennessee, I listen to sermon podcasts from my former congregation, Times Square Church in New York City.
Today I found myself driving down Interstate 71 instead of sitting in the pews of my church, so I pulled up a May 27 sermon by Pastor Carter Conlon. In his sermon, called "We Still Have Time to Make a Difference," Pastor Conlon said the definition of family is being challenged by the "highest levels of government." He warned of the cultural dissolution that will invariably come with this ever-changing definition of family and told his congregants that "there's still time to make a difference" in the culture. He said that Christians have acted like we're on some sort of cruise ship while others have infiltrated every segment of society trying to push evil down our throats. He encouraged his congregants to vote Biblically, to run for office, and to be involved in all areas of the community. [Read more…]

Ex-ISI Chief Says Purpose of New Afghan Intelligence Agency RAMA Is 'to destabilize Pakistan'
August 12, 2009
by Jeremy R. Hammond
Shahid R. Siddiqi contributed to this report
In an exclusive interview with Foreign Policy Journal, retired Lt. Gen. Hamid Gul responds to charges that he supports terrorism, discusses 9/11 and ulterior motives for the war on Afghanistan, claims that the U.S., Israel, and India are behind efforts to destabilize Pakistan, and charges the U.S. and its allies with responsibility for the lucrative Afghan drug trade.
Retired Lieutenant General Hamid Gul was the Director General of Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) from 1987 to 1989, during which time he worked closely with the CIA to provide support for the mujahedeen fighting the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan. Though once deemed a close ally of the United States, in more recent years his name has been the subject of considerable controversy. He has been outspoken with the claim that the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 were an "inside job". He has been called "the most dangerous man in Pakistan", and the U.S. government has accused him of supporting the Taliban, even recommending him to the United Nations Security Council for inclusion on the list of international terrorists.
In an exclusive interview with Foreign Policy Journal, I asked the former ISI chief what his response was to these allegations. He replied, "Well, it's laughable I would say, because I've worked with the CIA and I know they were never so bad as they are now." He said this was "a pity for the American people" since the CIA is supposed to act "as the eyes and ears" of the country. As for the charge of him supporting the Taliban, "it is utterly baseless. I have no contact with the Taliban, nor with Osama bin Laden and his colleagues." He added, "I have no means, I have no way that I could support them, that I could help them."
After the Clinton administration's failed attempt to assassinate Osama bin Laden in 1998, some U.S. officials alleged that bin Laden had been tipped off by someone in Pakistan to the fact that the U.S. was able to track his movements through his satellite phone. Counter-terrorism advisor to the National Security Council Richard Clarke said, "I have reason to believe that a retired head of the ISI was able to pass information along to Al Qaeda that the attack was coming." And some have speculated that this "retired head of the ISI" was none other than Lt. Gen. Hamid Gul.

The creator of memorable screenprinted characters like the Pancake Monster, artist Laura Fisk grew up on the East Coast and called New York home for 10 years. She recently said goodbye to her Brooklyn studio and relocated to Austin, TX. From across the country, Laura opens the doors to her new studio to us and shares about embracing an unfamiliar work space, making art in a new city, and creating a happy place.
How is working in Austin different than working in Brooklyn?
I love Brooklyn and New York so much, and leaving was really hard after living there for 10 years, and growing up on the East Coast. It's a total cliché, but it came down to space, space, space. My husband and I both needed more space for our businesses (Josh just started a content development and production company this year with a business partner). I almost felt guilty when we first got here setting up my office space and studio. After working out of mostly a corner of our apartment and a communal studio it felt decadent to be able to have two functional workspaces all to myself! It's a little slower paced here than NYC. I both like that and miss the sometime frantic New York energy.
How are you adjusting to a new studio in a new city?
Moving makes your brain work in different ways, although it's a bit painful. It forces you to do things differently, but in the end that's a good thing. Austin is a really creative town so it's been great getting to know people, finding out about arty/crafty things, eating at the delicious food carts, and discovering new fun stuff. In my head I've always had ideas how I'd want to set up my space and now I have a chance to enact them. Joining a screenprinting co-op down here has also helped me get to know some local printers. I loved working side by side to other printers in NYC, so still having some element was important to hold on to. I now mostly print in a little house in our backyard. It took a bit to get set up, but now I'm in love with it. It's my own world back there, and enjoy it even more than I thought I would.
What are your most essential tools for creating your art?
As an illustrator, my drawings are hand-drawn with all sorts of different pens, and I do touch ups and work on color ideas on the computer. At this point I really work back and forth, and I wholeheartedly thank the person who invented the scanner. I need a slew of specific things for printing, but for me, it's all about the ink. I love bright colors, and the saturated color that you can get with screenprinting is amazing. It's the reason I keep printing.
Where do you find inspiration within your workspace?
I have piles of books–old and new–that I like to flip through that take me to a new idea or for an animal photos for reference. Staring at my ink shelves does wonders, thinking what colors will work together best. I like putting images up on the wall or holding on to articles that inspire me. It's important for me for where I work to be a happy place, with little fun things to catch my attention.
What are some of your time management secrets?
To do lists! I feel completely out of control without lists and I have them everywhere. I usually hand-write them, because it helps me remember things more, and it feels really satisfying crossing things off. I'm not the most organized person, so forcing myself to stop and think what I have to accomplish for that day, that week, etc. keeps me on target.
What advice could you offer yourself 5 years ago?
Too many things; if only there was a time machine. One, be more organized from the get-go. Set specific goals from the start–not vague–but specific plans. Think ahead more. I tend to jump head first into projects without fully thinking them through, which is something I actively work on now. Also, and this is a big one, everyone needs help in a business. Doing everything completely by yourself isn't the best way. Knowing your limits of what you're good at and what someone else can do for you will only make your business better.
How do you recharge your creativity?
Forcing myself to stop and do something else–which honestly is hard sometimes! I love going to see movies in a theater because I can't do anything else but watch the screen and get sucked into the world on screen. There's a great group of theaters here, the Alamo Drafthouse, and it makes me want to go see something everyday. We just adopted a super sweet pug, Salsa, from Pug Rescue of Austin and taking her for walks forces me to get out of the house and clear my head. I love taking classes in different mediums, even if I'm terrible at them. It's so interesting to learn about different creative pursuit, and usually helps inform my own work, or at least gets me into different studio environment for awhile. I took a natural dyeing class last summer (at the Textile Arts Center in Brooklyn) and would love to take a weaving class or something in sculpture.
What quote keeps you motivated? What does that quote mean to you?
This may sound like a weird quote, but I constantly keep in my head "How I learned to stop worrying and love the bomb," the alternate title to Dr. Strangelove. My business and life is pretty hectic and there's always some weird issue or situation that comes up unexpectedly. I just try to embrace the crazy and roll with it.
How do you set goals for yourself?
Setting real deadlines is key for me. I'm a natural procrastinator, and am working on trying to get things done over time not at the last minute. Setting real deadlines with hard dates helps me get things accomplished. I just finished exhibiting at the National Stationery Show, and having that show date looming in my mind kept me on track with new designs for the show. Real deadlines make things actually happen.
How and when do you decide to celebrate a victory?
Just taking some time off, taking in a movie, or going out to dinner with my husband and allowing myself to really appreciate it. It's when all the work makes it feel worth it.

Hello All,
What should be our focus as we are dying? I figure that we should aim to be as calm as possible and enter in to a meditative-like mindfulness as we draw our last breaths. What is said in the suttas about preparing to die and teh state of mind we should aim for? I remember one sutta where Anathapindika is given advice by the Buddha about how to prepare for death, but if I remember rightly it was mostly about not attaching to the body and dealing with pain etc. What about the actual moment of dying? Is the final mind state (death consciousness) the most important thing? I know that achieving stream entry should be our goal, but we can not depend on this!
I'd also like to ask people's opinions about what happens in the event of sudden death (the proverbial bus etc.): The way i understand it, if one has trained in mindfulness and cultivated their Sila, they maty still be able to generate a peaceful state as soon as they 'realise' they are dead, whereas non-practitioners may very well be in a confused state, leading to a danger of a low rebirth. I'd be grateful for any opinions, particularly backed up by suttas or other teachings! Cheers Dhamma friends

ARCADIA - There was a camera crew from CBS' "60 Minutes" following trainer Doug O'Neill around Santa Anita on Saturday. The crew was there because O'Neill appears to have another strong Kentucky Derby contender in a horse named Goldencents.
Goldencents, presented with a golden opportunity to prove his worth, didn't disappoint, scoring an impressive victory in the Grade III, $100,000 Sham Stakes. He covered the one mile in 1:36.50 to finish a length and a half in front of Den's Legacy, trained by Bob Baffert. Another Baffert horse, Manando, finished third in the five-horse field.
Baffert had the winner in the Grade III, $100,000 San Pasqual Stakes, where Coil battled Ultimate Eagle in a dramatic stretch drive to win by a head.
Harris Farms' John Scott finished far back in third place in a six-horse field, which went off as the seventh of nine races.
The San Pasqual was Coil's final race. He is being retired to stud at Magali Farms in Santa Ynez. Coil won the 2011 Haskell Invitational at Monmouth Park in New Jersey but finished a disappointing seventh in last year's Breeders' Cup Sprint at Santa Anita. His career was hampered by an intestinal problem.
Tommy Lasorda, the 85-year-old legendary former Dodgers manager, was on hand to present the winning trophy after the San Pasqual. Earlier in the day, he met Baffert for the first time in the FrontRunner restaurant.
"I've attended only one Dodger game - the Kirk Gibson home run," Baffert told him, referring to Game 1 of the 1988 World Series. "I never went back because that game could never be topped."
Later in the winner's circle, he met Baffert's 8-year-old son Bode and gave him a lesson in how to shake hands.
"You look the person straight in the eye," Lasorda said. Baffert's wife Jill said, "We've been trying to teach him that for five years, and you do it in one try."
The finish of the Sham Stakes, the third race, indicates O'Neill's return to the Triple Crown stage is certainly worthy of network television attention. Last year he saddled I'll Have Another, who after winning the Santa Anita Derby won the Kentucky Derby and Preakness before a tendon injury resulted in an 11th-hour scratch from the Belmont.
But maybe even a better story is Goldencents' jockey, Kevin Krigger, who potentially could be the first African-American jockey to win a Kentucky Derby since the early 1900s and only the sixth overall.
"I know it's been a long time," said Krigger, a native of St. Croix, Virgin Islands.
At the first Kentucky Derby in 1875, an African-American, Oliver Lewis, rode the winner. Of the 15 jockeys in that race, 13 were African-American. But between 1921 and 2000, when Marlon St. Julian rode 50-1 shot Curule to a seventh-place finish, no African-American jockeys have been involved since.
Krigger, 29, has been riding in the U.S. for a decade, first establishing himself in Ohio and West Virginia and then Northern California before coming to Southern California last year. He and his fiancee Taisha, who have four children, ages 3 to 12, live in Azusa. Krigger said he recently moved his parents into their home there from the Virgin Islands.
Asked if he has dreamt of riding in a Kentucky Derby, Krigger said, "I've had a vision where I see myself winning."
Krigger's agent, Tom Knust, who has dabbled in screenwriting, is so confident that he is working on a documentary he hopes to sell to a network, possibly Black Entertainment Television.
At this point last year, the Kentucky Derby was just a far-fetched dream for O'Neill. It wasn't until I'll Have Another won the Santa Anita Derby in April that the dream began to take focus.
This year appears to be golden for O'Neill already. Just a week earlier, he notched his first victory of this meet when then 2-year-old Avare won the Eddie Logan Stakes. Having turned 3 on Jan. 1, along with all other 2-year-old North American thoroughbreds, Avare (pronounced A-var) joins Goldencents as one of O'Neill's four Kentucky Derby contenders.
There's also He's Had Enough, who finished second in last year's Breeders' Cup Juvenile, and Mudflats, whose chances took a hit Saturday when he finished seventh in an eight-horse field in the Grade II, $200,000 Jerome Stakes at Aqueduct in New York.
Another name besides O'Neill and Krigger that figures to get mentioned on the road to the Kentucky Derby is Louisville basketball Coach Rick Pitino. He owns 60 percent of Avare, who is named after Pitino's friend and business manager Rick Avare. Pitino also owns 5 percent of Goldencents.
Goldencents' other owners are Glenn Sorenstein and Joshua Kaplan of Santa Monica, who race under the banner W.C. Racing, and David Kenney of Yorba Linda, who were celebrating in the Directors' Room after the Sham Stakes.
After possibly two more races, including the Santa Anita Derby on April 6, they hope to take their party to Churchill Downs in Louisville on the first Saturday in May.

The renewable energy sector is a $2 billion industry with an estimated 16,800 jobs created in 2011, according to a new study conducted by Elliot D. Pollack & Company. The report was commissioned by Pinal Partnership with support from Arizona Forward and was released at the Renewable Energy Economic Summit & Conference hosted by both organizations last week. More than 200 industry professionals attended this sold-out conference held in Casa Grande.
Renewable energy is still a small part of the overall economy in Arizona, which totals 1.7 million jobs in the Phoenix area alone. However, to put this in perspective consider the copper industry — one of the state's original five Cs — which generates only 9,000 jobs with 70 percent of the country's copper produced in Arizona. Another positive is that recent job growth in the renewable energy industry has helped replace lost construction jobs.
Public policy, energy efficiency, untapped renewables and the future role of solar in Arizona's economy were among the other topics addressed by four different panel sessions featuring industry experts. They noted that while Arizona has some of the best clean energy resources in the nation, we are still behind other states in harnessing new energy development.
Regulatory uncertainties, global competition, rapid changes in technology, along with financing, siting and transmission issues are all challenges the industry faces. Panelists suggested that we must work together to maintain a reasonable level of support for solar and renewable energy technologies both through incentives and policy.
In order to continue to grow the renewable energy sector, the Pollack report recommends Arizona become more involved in the manufacturing of components and products to export to places like California where much of the installation activity is happening. Arizona has less regulatory intrusion and a much lower manufacturing cost base than its West Coast neighbors.
What's promising is that with leadership at the federal, state and local levels, we can expand the renewable energy sector and create new jobs while enhancing our environmental quality. Public and private sectors must work together to identify and foster long-term policy solutions. The Grand Canyon state is uniquely poised to be a leader in clean energy, which will benefit the economy, communities and environment.

City of Tampa to spend $90k to study train noise
TAMPA, Fla. (970 WFLA) - The Tampa city council has voted 'yes' to spend $90,000 on a study to quiet train horns in the city.
The vote came after council members heard from several downtown Tampa residents at Thursday's meeting who hope council finds a way to stop the horn-blowing.
Councilman Harry Cohen says it's not something that can be done overnight and it'll be costly.
With cost in mind, the city plans to apply for a grant to help pay for the study, which could take until the end of the year to complete.
Under federal law, trains have to sound their horns at a certain decibel when they approach crossings. There are 65 railroad crossings within the city limits through historic Ybor City, downtown Tampa, and south to the Port Tampa area, along CSX train tracks.
As part of the study, an engineering team from King Engineering Associates, Inc. will assess what upgrades need to be made to each crossing area, which could include additional gating, street medians, and signage be installed, as well as potential costs for those upgrades.
To learn more about the Train Horn Rule as well as Train Quiet Zones, please visit the Federal Railroad Administration's website by clicking here.

Mayor Bob Buckhorn joined AM Tampa Bay Friday. He touched on the train issue after discussing the seawall issue.

In the externship program, law students have an opportunity to learn in supervised judicial, governmental and non-profit organizations about the practice of law. These placements are available to students after the completion of their first year. Students work with the extern director to identify placement opportunities.
Students are required to spend a minimum of 140 hours a semester at their placement. Academic credits are available through two class offerings, the externship placement and Issues in Professionalism.
- Externship Placement: 3 hours credit. Students may receive credit for up to two semesters of extern placement at different placements.
- Issues in Professionalism: 2 hours credit. Students participating in their first semester as an extern OR a licensed legal intern must take this class. This is an applied professional responsibility class.
During the summer, students are able to work in placements outside of the Norman and Oklahoma City areas, allowing students to either return to their home communities or explore new cities. Externs have worked in many places including Florida, California, Maryland, Texas, Colorado, Nevada, Washington, D.C., and Johannesburg, South Africa.
There are a few differences between externships and internships. Externs work for class credit, while interns do not. Internships vary greatly, depending on the organization's preferences. Some internship positions are paid, some are volunteer (unpaid) and some require a legal intern's license issued by the Oklahoma Bar Association. There is no license requirement to work as an extern.
Additionally, externs who exceed the 140 hour requirement can submit the additional hours for pro bono credit through OU's Students Access to Justice program.
Applications for the externship program are accepted throughout the year. Contact Professor Connie Smothermon at firstname.lastname@example.com for an application.


description: Brazil boasts fabulous beaches, vast, unspoiled swaths of Amazon rainforest, Pantanal wetlands, and, of course, Rio de Janeiro's Carnival.

transcript:
Hello, I’m Patty Kim.
We are packing our bags for Brazil, on a journey that will take us from some fabulous beaches to the unspoiled depths of the Amazon rainforest, not to mention one of the biggest festivals in the world.
Roughly the size of the continental United States, there’s a lot more to Brazil’s geography than meets the eye.
The Amazon rainforest covers about half the country, but there’s plenty of room left over for savannah, wetlands, and some of the most amazing coastlines you’ll ever see.
No wonder that’s where the majority of Brazilians live, in cities that are both historic and modern.
The country’s largest and wealthiest city: Sao Paulo.
The commercial hub of Brazil, Sao Paolo also competes for the title of cultural center with its northern neighbor, Rio de Janeiro.
But you can’t really blame them for the rivalry.
Rio’s got to be one of the most exciting cities in the world.
For a breathtaking view of it, take the cog railway up to the top of Corcovado Mountain, where the 130-foot statue of Christ the Redeemer overlooks the city.
From there, you can see out across Rio, Guanabara Bay, and over to the city’s famous beaches.
At spots like Ipanema and Copacabana, the beaches become the city’s great equalizer.
Here, you’ll find rich and poor, old and young, locals and visitors all coming to enjoy the sun and the sand.
But like anywhere you go in the city, crime can sometimes be a problem, so make sure you don't attract unwanted attention from thieves.
Keep your valuables and your passport back at the hotel.
And as tempting as those moonlit walks on the beach may be, stick to the beaches in the day.
In the evening, Rio’s busy nightlife awakens to the sounds of samba.
The musical style is a Rio original, and can be heard throughout the city.
Especially, at Carnival.
For four days before the start of Lent, cities across Brazil host Carnival festivals, but Rio’s is the most famous, and the largest.
Its six million residents, known as Cariocas, combine with over half a million tourists to transform Rio into a city wide street party.
It culminates with the Samba Parade, where samba schools compete with elaborate floats and costumes.
The festivities go on until dawn, when the crowds finally go home…before beginning to plan for next year’s Carnival.
Moving inland from the coast, the city sounds melt away.
This is ranch country.
Brazilian cowboys, called pantaneiros, lead their herds across the vast savannahs.
But with the coming of the seasonal floods, an area the size of France becomes the world’s largest wetlands, called the Pantanal.
It is a safari spotter’s paradise, with alligators, jaguars and macaws.
It would rank as Brazil’s richest landscape, if it wasn’t overshadowed by its larger neighbor to the north: The Amazon.
Nearly one-fifth of the world’s free-flowing fresh water runs through its river basin.
Its bottom is so deep, large sea vessels can journey up river for over a thousand miles.
It is without exaggeration referred to as the “Ocean River.”
Many places along its banks make excellent jumping off points for jungle treks.
The rain forest’s crowded canopy hums and buzzes with life, if you are quick enough to spot it.
It’s estimated that one in ten mammal species on the planet live in the Amazon.
Many native tribes still live in the forest.
Some allow guests to experience their way of life.
Here, time slows down to the rise and fall of the river, in a place found nowhere else on Earth.
When planning a trip to the Amazon, the best times to come are during the dry season, which varies north and south of the Equator.
In most other places, the tourist high season is during Brazil’s summer, between December and February.
Many people speak some degree of English, but if you want to meet the locals, don’t forget to pack that Portuguese phrasebook.
If you’re on a schedule, the best and safest way to check out sites around the cities is by taxi, and the best way to get around the country is by plane.
With more time on your hands, you can hit the road or take a trip down the river.
But no matter how much time you’ve got, a trip to Brazil will make the most of it.

Ratings for Dr. Philip F. Kogler
Dr. Kogler is far more than a doctor he is a rare and special Gifted Healer!He is in a class of his own. He possesses both a brilliant, deep knowledge base and personalized and sincere care of every patient.10 minutes in his waiting room you will witness the warmth, enthusiasm and incredible gratitude every patient greets him with and is returned as warmly and personally.I have seen several chiropractors and each has been painful and expensive adjustments that always made me feel worse! 3 years ago, at age 35 barely able to walk and desperate, I turned to Groupon and discovered a miracle! I practically crawled in office and walked out in one session unsupported and a 50% reduction in pain. My PCP recommended surgery and chronic pain medication management. Not only did he save me from surgery but in two weeks had completely eliminated my need for narcotics. A consummate professional in everything he does but also funny, witty and warm. I endorse him highly and feel blessed to know him!
Dr. Kogler and Interurban Chiropractic are sponsers of the Jet City Rollergirls and Dr. Kogler makes a point to come to our league practice almost every week! He has helped me and so many other girls on the league with all the aches and pains that come along with playing full contact sports. He is professional and always personable. Thank you Dr. Kogler for all of your help!!!
Dr Kogler has been very helpful in my care and wellness plan. He is insightful and caring. He cares for the patient first and a wealth of information. I have enjoyed being a patient of his and look forward to continuing to see him for years to come.
I never considered a chiropractor for my ankle but I am so glad Dr. Kogler was there to help! He adjusted my ankle one night at league practice for the Jet City Rollergirls and the outcome was amazing. Balance and agility restored! Thanks Dr. Kogler for your support and care of our league!
I had a headache for over three weeks! I tried everyting to get rid of it, and my regular doctor couldn't figure out how to help me. Dr. Philip Kogler was volunteering at my Jet City Roller Derby practice and I thought it wouldn't hurt to talk to him. It took him about one minute to figure out what my problem was and then he cracked my neck real quick! Today I am feeling great! No more headache! Thank you Dr. Kogler, YOU ARE AWESOME!!!!!
I'm skeptical of doctors but I have to say within the first few treatments with Dr. Kogler I noticed a big change. My neck and back felt better. I had more range when turning my head right and left. I was sleeping better! Also, others said my posture was noticeably better. Thanks Dr. Kogler! You are good!
Dr Kogler is a very personable and understanding person, has insight on a patient's need by listening, and knowing just what to do for each individual. He is very respectful and kind. I would recommend him to anyone who is in need of care.
I have had lower back pain for years. I was fortunate to get a referral from a co-worker who used Dr. Kogler and Dr. Black at Wellness One of Eastgate for the same back problems. For the first time in years I can get out of bed and do normal things without the constant pain that was in my lower back. I am so grateful for this relief. When you meet with these doctors they give you a very comprehensive plan and you know exactly what you are getting into. I do have a ways to go with my treatment plan and look forward to my visits. I can't thank Dr. Kogler and Dr. Black enough for what they did. The pain has subsided nearly 75%. I wish I knew about this years ago. I highly recommend these Doctors. I trust them and feel confident with the comprehensive plan they put together for me. I look forward to eventually living a more normal lifestyle without interference of constant pain in my back and life. I am definately on the road to recovery and feel great about the progress so far.
Dr. Kogler is very professional, friendly, and knows exactly where to pinpoint a problem. He makes you feel at ease and takes time to answer any questions.
He has been great to work with, very helpful, concerned about the progress of his clients and always has a great attitude.

Obama – I want to do to every industry what I did to the auto industry
posted at 12:04 pm on August 10, 2012 by Steve Eggleston
If Ed weren't recovering from back surgery, I'm positive this would have been today's Obamateurism of the Day. I have to credit Ace for digging up this little gem from a speech President Obama in Pueblo, Colorado yesterday:
We've got a bunch of examples of the differences, the choice in this election. When the American auto industry was on the brink of collapse, more than 1 million jobs at stake, Governor Romney said, let's "let Detroit go bankrupt."
I said I believe in American workers, I believe in this American industry, and now the American auto industry has come roaring back and GM is number one again. So now I want to do the same thing with manufacturing jobs not just in the auto industry, but in every industry. I don't want those jobs taking root in places like China. I want them taking root in places like Pueblo.
Let's review what, exactly, Obama (and to be fair, President Bush as a lame duck and enabler) did to the auto industry:
- Expended $43.2 billion (not including a $6.7 billion "flash money" "loan" from otherwise unused DIP financing used to create a credit-worthy Government Motors out of whole cloth) to seize control of the largest auto maker, General Motors. Of that $43.2 billion, only $16.8 billion has made its way back to the Treasury, with another $10.3 billion in stock the government still holds in GM (as of the close of the markets yesterday). That puts the projected loss on the GM deal at $16.1 billion, while the UAW VEBA (retiree health-care fund) has already recovered more than what it was owed pre-bankruptcy and stands to get close to $30 billion on the $20.6 billion it was owed before all is said and done.
- Expended $12.8 billion to seize the third-largest auto maker, Chrysler, hand initial majority control to the UAW, and facilitate the transfer of ultimate control to a foreign entity, Fiat. Of that $12.8 billion, $8.2 billion was ultimately recovered from former owner Cerebus and Fiat, putting the final loss at $4.6 billion.
What, exactly, did we get for that $30 billion, besides a government-run company whose recent success is due more to its controlling owner upping its fleet purchases than anything else and an Italian-union collaboration? Did you think it would be an increase in jobs? You would be mistaken if you thought that.
The Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages, widely considered the most-accurate measure of jobs as it is a census that includes every job provided by a private employer subject to the unemployment tax, has as one of its industry subgroups "automobile and light truck manufacturing" (NAICS 33661 in bureaucrat-speak). In December 2007, when the "Great Recession" started (at least according to the economists charged by the government with defining recessions), there were 187,219 people employed in the industry. In December 2008, when Bush decided to bail out GM and Chrysler, employment dropped to 155,504. In December 2009, after Obama turned them into Government Motors and UAW Motors, employment dropped to 131,525. There was little change in December 2010, but employment did bottom out at 131,020. There was a bit of a recovery by December 2011 (the last month QCEW data is currently available) as employment rose to 142,532.
To recap – we spent $20-30 billion (depending on whether one thinks we'll get even $20.65 per share once/if Treasury decides to let GM go), sold the smallest of the Big Three to the Italians, and, 3 years after the bailout started and 2 1/2 years after the economy "recovered", had 13,000 fewer people employed in the automotive industry. I'll let Jim Hanson have the last word on the Crony
Capitalist Socialist in Chief:

As farmers busily harvest the Watermelon fields, many are also keeping a close watch on another crop. Levy County has approximately 12,000 acres of peanuts. The crops were planted in April and May and take 135-150 days to harvest depending on the variety. The first couple months are fairly undemanding, said Anthony Barbaglia, Levy County University of Florida/IFAS Extension Agent for Agriculture. "The peanuts just kind of hang out there for the first 50 days.

White space is key in clean websites

Cleanness is essential for a good web design. People often mistake cleanness for minimalism. While both styles have common traits, do not be confused. They are not the same. Minimal design is more about using the bare essentials - less is more. Clean design focuses on the careful and precise positioning of the important elements throughout the site - a place for everything and everything in its place. The website can be considered quite busy with lots of elements to consider, but as long as the design is kept clean, the website will work. Clean website design conveys elegance.

States Strengthen Work Support Strategies in First Year of Initiative
Apr 03, 2013
In the midst of tighter budgets and cuts in benefits spending, some states are focusing on more effective administration of public benefits that support working families. They're doing so because they know that these benefits, which include programs focused on nutrition, health care and child care, help families become and stay employed and promote children's success in school and life. By streamlining eligibility processes and cutting red tape for these programs, states can reduce administrative costs and make it less daunting for working families to get the help they need.
For example, states involved in the Work Support Strategies (WSS) project are making administrative and programmatic decisions that help families more easily acquire benefits for which they're eligible. Reports on the initial planning year of the project (2010-2011), released by the Urban Institute today, indicate that participating states have made progress in simplifying application processes, streamlining eligibility policies, and coordinating the administration of Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP - formerly Food Stamps), Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP), and child care assistance.
As a partner in the WSS project, CLASP provides technical assistance to states to strengthen the administration of their child care assistance programs in the context of the broader WSS focus on coordinating across multiple programs. In the first year of the project, WSS states took steps to reduce barriers to families' enrollment in child care assistance programs and to improve continuity of care for children.

Looking for some advice on longboard restoration. had a classic longboard built in highschool, and rode the board daily. it took a beating, the white stripes on the board are faded, there are dings that were fixed, but not properly sanded, and there are black "stains" on the board where it was strapped to a roof rack for flat spells, sometimes days at a time. Think it is some type of vinyl residue from the straps/pads.
I know i can't reverse any sun damage or waterspots. but i want to strip the board down to the bare fiberglass. really get all the wax off, all the vinyl residue, etc. I also want to sand down the repaired dings.
Does anyone have any recommendations for these issues? Basically, i need some type of fiberglass cleaner that will clean the board. The typical wax removers are not doing it. there are years of wax, sand, dirt, and board rack residue on this thing.
Also, any tips for sanding a repaired ding after it has cured for 15 years?
All tips are appreciated.

First thank you very much for all the valuable information posted here. Secondly, I want to add i've tried many methods in this thread some people have proposed and it got me a little further into finding what the hell is wrong with my machine. I have broadcom 4322 and I know some people have found fixes for that one in particular but I tried them to no avail.
I wont give up just yet but I need expert help into finding what the problem is. I will try and get an ethernet wired connection somewhere soon and figure something out, as I basically fixed the wired connection that didnt work at first. The wireless still doesnt, though. Thats what I'm working on at the moment, in my wireless device configurations, wireless hardware is set to nothing, while my wired hardware is connected on eth0. I tried wlan0 and all the different eth'x' I could. Ill keep you guys posted as to what I do and if it gets fixed I'll provide information for other people like me in need!
Thanks a lot!

countries we've worked in
local organizations we helped build and sustain
given to women's rights and youth organizations worldwide
governments persuaded to make reproductive rights central to family planning
young activists empowered to lobby their governments
Our Global Impact
IWHC plays a key leadership role in mobilizing women and young people from around the world to participate in UN conferences and negotiations. We ensure that global policies, programs, and funding reflect the realities of local communities and meet the needs of women and girls.
IWHC works with government officials in the Administration and in Congress to ensure that U.S. foreign policies and investments meet the needs of women and girls in developing countries. Currently, we are helping to develop a comprehensive U.S. strategy to end child marriage and secure universal access to sexual and reproductive health and rights around the world.
Since 1986, IWHC has worked in close collaboration with activists and grassroots organizations throughout Latin America, including work with partners in Brazil, Peru, Uruguay, Mexico, and Argentina, as well as with regional networks. We have helped empower a new generation of young advocates who are now leaders in the global movement for sexual and reproductive health and rights.
IWHC has been active in Africa for nearly three decades. We have helped build and strengthen grassroots organizations in Botswana, Cameroon, Kenya, Nigeria, South Africa, and Swaziland. Regionally, we support feminist groups and young leaders to advocate for sexual and reproductive health and rights at the African Union and the UN Economic Commission for Africa.
IWHC works to advance sexual and reproductive rights and gender equality in Muslim societies by building the capacity of local organizations and regional networks. We support emerging feminist and youth leaders to become effective advocates for change within their own countries and at the United Nations.
Since 1983, IWHC has worked in collaboration with partner organizations throughout Asia, including in Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Pakistan, and the Philippines, as well as with regional networks. Our partners work within their own countries and at the United Nations to ensure that the international development agenda prioritizes the needs of women and young people.
Since 1998, IWHC has collaborated with regional networks based in Turkey, including Women for Women's Human Rights and the Coalition on Sexual and Bodily Rights in Muslim Societies. In 2001 and 2003, our partners won major reforms in Turkish laws on women's rights, sexual autonomy, and bodily integrity. Today with IWHC support, feminists in Turkey and across the region have become progressive champions at UN negotiations.
Since 1999, IWHC has supported efforts to promote gender equality and strengthen comprehensive sexuality education in Pakistan. Our partner Aahung has reached thousands of girls and boys with essential life skills education, including information on human sexuality and preventing gender-based violence. Aahung also trains teachers and medical students.
IWHC has supported a number of organizations working to advance sexual and reproductive health and rights in India. Our partners advocate for the rights of women and young people, promote comprehensive sexuality education and HIV/AIDS policy, ensure access to safe abortion services, and empower young leaders and champions for gender equality and human rights.
IWHC worked with government officials and civil society organizations to design Bangladesh's first national health and population strategy. During this five-year strategy (from 1998 to 2003), maternal mortality was reduced by 26 percent and infant mortality by 22 percent. IWHC also supported several research studies in Bangladesh, and in 2006 helped launch the Bangladesh Health Watch network.
Since 1988, IWHC has partnered with grassroots groups across Nigeria to ensure that adolescent girls get the information, skills, and care they need to make a healthy transition to adulthood. Our partners are strengthening sexuality education programs, challenging harmful gender norms, and empowering young people to advocate for their health and rights.
IWHC has been active in Cameroon since 1990. We support women and youth-led organizations working to empower women and girls and ensure access to sexual and reproductive health education and services. Currently, we support a number of efforts to prevent early and forced marriage and provide support to girls who have been forced to marry.
IWHC works in Kenya to ensure that adolescent girls, especially poor and marginalized girls, get the basic services and support they need to become healthy and empowered women. We also partner with advocates who are leading efforts to ensure women have access to safe, legal, and comprehensive abortion services.
IWHC has been active in Peru since 2002. Our local partners are a diverse group of advocates working to advance the sexual and reproductive rights and health of women and young people. We currently support efforts to reform the country's restrictive abortion laws and implement comprehensive sexuality education programs.
IWHC has worked in Brazil since 1986. We have helped build a number of feminist organizations in the country in that time. Today, our partners are implementing groundbreaking sexual and reproductive health and rights programs for adolescents, working to end the criminalization of abortion, and expanding access to reproductive health services by vulnerable populations.
IWHC has supported advocacy for abortion rights in Uruguay since 2002. In 2012, Uruguay revised its law to allow for abortion during the first trimester of pregnancy, with some restrictions. We currently support Mujer y Salud en Uruguay to expand access to safe and legal abortion and to block legislative attacks on reproductive rights.
Since 2003, IWHC has supported efforts to advance reproductive health and rights in Argentina. Current legislation criminalizes abortion except when performed to save the life of the woman, preserve her physical and mental health, and in cases of rape or incest. As a result, many women endure unsafe conditions that sometimes result in death or severe injuries.
IWHC supports women's rights activists in Central and Eastern Europe to advocate for sexual and reproductive health and rights during key regional and international negotiations. The Astra Network, our longtime regional partner, has become one of the strongest voices defending sexual and reproductive rights in the European Union.

LONG BEACH - Responding to community pressure, City Manager Pat West presented a plan Tuesday that shifts oil revenue, sidewalk funding and other money to prevent some reductions in parks and libraries slated for next year.
The City Council voted 7-0 to refer the proposal, which identifies $2.73 million in new general fund revenue to offset $2.64 million in cuts, to the Budget Oversight Committee.
Under West's plan, after-school programs would be maintained instead of eliminated at Drake, Bixby, Miracle, Stearns, Whaley, Pan Am, College Estates, Wardlow, El Dorado West, MacArthur, Cherry, Somerset, Davenport and DeForest parks.
Among other changes, some staff positions at proposed self-service library branches would be restored, hours wouldn't be reduced at Silverado and Will J. Reid pools, and programming would be maintained for adaptive recreation, the Long Beach Senior Center and the El Dorado Nature Center.
West acknowledged that the plan carries risk since it increases the price floor for city oil proceeds used in day-to-day expenses from $65 per barrel to $70, moving $1.3million from reserves.
However, West said, the time may have come to protect quality-of-life services after a decade of deficits and accompanying austerity measures.
"They are truly in year 10 of significant cuts," said West.
Councilman James Johnson, an ardent backer of infrastructure work, criticized the proposal because it shifts $1 million from the sidewalk repair fund, which would leave $2 million citywide.
He compared the suggestion to attempts by Los Angeles to foist the burden of patching sidewalks to homeowners, calling the proposed structural reduction the "wrong direction."
Vice Mayor Robert Garcia initially called for immediately incorporating West's blueprint into the budget the council will consider next month.
"I think these are absolutely the right restorations to make," Garcia said.
He disagreed that sidewalk repair would suffer if the plan is adopted, saying that surplus revenue sources can be used to replenish the funds.
The remaining $430,000 pinpointed by West would come from cell tower revenue transferred from the Long Beach Water Department, a 5 percent reduction in the city's electricity contract, a library grant and charges to enterprise funds for a new Cost Recovery Bureau in the Department of Financial Management.
As he has repeatedly, Mayor Bob Foster cautioned council members against straying from a more disciplined approach to budget-making and committing too much of the city's reserves to ongoing costs.
In Long Beach, fiscal planners conservatively estimate the price of oil, citing market volatility.
"I'm a little concerned about moving the price up to $70," Foster said. "That, to me, gets pretty close to the edge."
Most of the dozen-or-so members of the public who spoke at the meeting urged the council to act to stop the cuts in parks and libraries.
"Sidewalks are great, but they're not as important as our children," said community activist Diana Lejins.
Long Beach is facing a $17.2million deficit for the fiscal year starting Oct. 1.
The council is required to pass a budget by Sept. 15.

MMA Portraits
Who all would be interested in getting awesome turbo-cool MMA portraits taken? I am trying to build up a portfolio just now for my photography site so you would be helping me out and it would probably help all you guys out if you all had decent high resolution photos to use on promo fight posters, websites, profiles etc - would probably help giving the whole sport a more professional look that way too (plus we can make the dinky ninjas look awesome)? I wouldn't be charging for this but if you want to give me a gammy you are more than welcome.
If you are interested can you reply here with your normal name as I am not sure of everyone's forum name and I can try and work out what sort of numbers we have. Then I will work out a night that suits most people and will probably just bring my studio gear up to the grip (is that cool Guy / Paul?).
This is open to anyone that trains - you don't have to be a fighter. Even if you just do BJJ we can do portraits with gi on etc.
I would be something along these sort of styles I am thinking to give you an idea - something grungy and low key.
Please pass the word around to the rest of the guys in the grip that arent on this.
oh and a gammy if you don't know...

Jefferson City, Tenn. - Chelsea Watson and Lizzie Graham both placed shots on the net on Saturday afternoon, but neither was able to slip the ball past Alyssa Crum, and the Eagles took advantage of Trenna Howell's hat trick as the Tornados fell in their SAC opener to Carson-Newman, 5-0.
Carson-Newman (2-1, 1-0 SAC) found the back on the net on the first shot of the game as Howell put the ball in the net on her first touch off the long pass from Jenna Bryan, beating BC goalkeeper Brittany Webster to put the Eagles up 1-0 at the 20:33 mark.
The Tornados attempted to even the score, but Caitlin Hubbard's shot attempt went wide left and Watson's effort was saved by Crum with 14 minutes to play in the half, keeping Carson-Newman in the lead.
The Eagles added a second goal in the half at the 40:55 mark as Hailey Julian settled the ball and placed a shot in the top of the net to put C-N up 2-0 at the break.
Carson-Newman added a trio of goals in the second half as Howell scored on a penalty kick and off the assist from Brooke Eham, and Whitney Curtis placed in the final point of the match at the 71:40 mark off the assist from Raquel Pimentel.
The Tornados had one final opportunity to get on the board late in the match as Graham launched a shot with 82:23 on the clock, but it was turned aside by Crum to keep the shutout intact.
Brevard returns home and remains in South Atlantic Conference action this week as they welcome Lenoir-Rhyne University to the friendly confines of the BC Soccer Field. Kickoff between the Tornados and the Bears is set for 4 p.m.

This haunting, moving and highly evocative account of one of the most dramatic aspects of the War in the Pacific powerfully redefines our understanding of the nature of heroes, heroism, and sacrifice, while it eloquently explores the triumph of the human spirit.
Hampton Sides, a gifted writer, masterfully interweaves a complex tapestry of three stories. The first recounts Japan's initial military triumphs throughout Asia and the South Pacific and the subsequent emergency evacuation of Allied troops from Bataan in 1942. The second describes the horror faced by those who were captured, as they struggled to stay alive in the POW camp at Cabanatuan as survivors of the hideous Bataan Death March. The third story re-creates the daring liberation of the 513 British and American soldiers who clung to life in the infamous camp at the jungle's edge. This January 1945 rescue mission was led by the U.S. Army's Sixth Ranger Battalion, which grappled with a retreating Japanese Army that possessed a vast superiority in numbers.
Richly detailed and deeply evocative, Ghost Soldiers stands as a meaningful testimonial to those who served and those who were sacrificed, as well as a stark reminder that even in the darkest hours, humanity can exhibit one of its greatest skills: the ability to persevere against all odds.
Ghost Soldiers opens with the kind of horror that only war can create; it closes with the triumph of hope and courage and the imperative that the memory of nightmarish events endure, in the hope that they may never recur. (Summer 2001 Selection)
