Blue Wahoos take a 5-1 lead in game 2. Bill Rhinehart with a ground rule double drove in two. A walk followed to load the bases and a Bryson Smith triple cleared the bases.
Blue Wahoos take a 5-1 lead in game 2. Bill Rhinehart with a ground rule double drove in two. A walk followed to load the bases and a Bryson Smith triple cleared the bases.
Neftali Soto doubles into the gap to drive in two more. 16-1 Bats. 6th inning.
Billings is in a rain delay. The game made it 5 outs before the tarp came out.
Nice game from Serrano, Cingrani is a tough act to follow...
Valaika has added a pinch-hit grand slam for the Bats. It's now 22-1.
Denis Phipps goes 5-6 tonight for the Bats and raises his average to .180
Pensacola completes the sweep, 6-1. Hamilton walked and stole #4/108. Good pitching from Serrano, Partch and Hayes.
The Blue Wahoos are now 14-8 in the second half, good for first place.

In addition to the two grand slams (Phipps, Valaika) and two other homers (Soto, Puckett), and the five hits from Phipps, Louisville had three hits from Gregorius, Rodriguez, Xavier Paul and Puckett--23 in all. Gallagher went six, and scoreless innings were provided by Judy, Hoover and Webb. The final was 22-1.
Dayton went down 8-1, managing only two hits (Buckley and Yovan Gonzalez).
Five of the first six Billings batters have struck out. Cisco pitched just one hitless inning. But the Orem starter only went 2/3, so I'm guessing the rain delay was the factor there.
Mustangs trail 1-0 in the third. Amezcua has the ball for Billings.
Bats fixing the old pythag huh?
"Since I've been with the Reds in 1989, we've never had a farm system this loaded," Bowden said. "If we were the New York Yankees and had unlimited dollars, we could have traded for Colon, (Jeff) Weaver, Rolen, (Cliff) Floyd, (Kenny) Rogers and Finley and gotten them all -- and still held onto our top five prospects. That's an amazing statement."
Sharky Rogers has walked four in the first two innings, but is hanging tough in a 0-0 game. Dominic D'Anna's triple was wasted.
Travis Mattair's 3-run HR has put Bakersfield up 3-0 in the third.

André Previn's modern masterpiece blends the sultry and fiery drama of Tennessee Williams's Pulitzer Prize-winning play with a brilliant score, creating a musical experience that will enchant both opera devotees and those less familiar with opera. Meet Blanche DuBois, a fading and fragile Southern belle who attempts to leave her shadowy past behind when she moves into her sister's home in the steamy underbelly of urban New Orleans. But violent clashes and sexual tension with her brutish and bitter brother-in-law, Stanley Kowalski, lead to the story's shocking climax, which drives Blanche even further into her own delusions and away from reality. Previn's expressive and riveting score enhance the raw emotion and heartbreaking tragedy of this gripping work. Sung in English with English supertitles.

Did Khloe meet Lamar in private?
(TMZ) - Khloe Kardashian has met with Lamar Odom ... and she is desperately trying to save his life, TMZ has learned.
Sources familiar with the situation tell us, Khloe found Lamar and drove to see him at an undisclosed location.
As TMZ first reported, Lamar has plunged into the dark world of crack cocaine and Khloe effectively separated from him after throwing him out of the house last Wednesday when he rejected a family intervention.
TMZ reports Khloe has not given up on Lamar although she says she will never get back with him until he's clean. On the other hand, TMZ learned she has taken no steps to file for divorce because she believes there's still a chance Lamar can be saved.
It's not known how Lamar has received Khloe's latest plea.

Sunken barge pulled to Cuyahoga River surface
(Cleveland) - A sunken barge on the Cuyahoga River has been brought to the water's surface.
The barge began sinking early Thursday and fell to the river's depths near the Columbus Road lift bridge.
The U.S. Coast Guard says the vessel was brought to the water's surface about 8:15 Friday morning.
Coast Guard Petty Officer Kyle Niemi says the barge is owned by a company called 'American Bridge' although he's unsure whether the company was working on the lift bridge at the time.
There was no pollution risk to the river due to the incident. Boat traffic along that stretch of the Cuyahoga River is once again flowing.

The Olympus M. Zuiko Digital ED 12mm f/2.0: A first high-end micro 4.3 lensWednesday February 15 2012
DxOMark continues with its series of reviews of micro 4/3 lenses.
Following our review of Panasonic's very good kit lens, we present here the results for a bright wide-angle lens — the Olympus M. Zuiko Digital ED 12mm f/2.0, announced in June 2011 and on the market now for several months. This 12mm wide-angle lens is the equivalent of a 24mm 24x36; its design is upscale, all-metal and with a very pleasant grip. This lens has another nice feature in terms of handling — users can quickly activate the manual control simply by sliding the focus ring toward the camera.
In the micro 4/3 world, this is a lens that is clearly aimed at serious and expert photographers, thus giving DxOMark an opportunity to take a closer look at the capabilities of these lenses specifically designed for 4/3 cameras.
Four-thirds cameras (and notably the Panasonic GH2) have sensors with a very small pixel pitch — in fact, 16Mpix on a 4/3 sensor means pixels that are only 3.75 µm! This very small pixel pitch likewise means that the Zuiko and Panasonic lenses will have to have excellent resolution to take full advantage of this type of 16-Mpix sensor.
Olympus M. Zuiko Digital ED 12mm f/2.0 review
Further readings for the The Olympus M. Zuiko Digital ED 12mm f/2.0: A first high-end micro 4.3 lens
To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.
Added by ColSebastianMoran | January 24 , 2016
Something wrong on this page
This lens gets 5MPx on this body, 11Mpx on another 16MPx body. Appears to me that this page has a bad test of this lens.

Former CIA Employee Promotes Terrorism Against America on the "News"
Update 7/3/09: CNN reports on Jon Stewart reporting on Scheuer's insanity, in a classic Stewart analysis. Really. Watch the short clip.
– Ed.
Update July 2, 2009, at MediaMatters.org:
CNN's Roberts says Scheuer's "major weapon" comment is "out there"
Original story, from 911blogger.com
Just another day for Glenn Beck:
From the June 30th, 2009 Glenn Beck on Fox News:
Scheuer: "The only chance we have as a country right now is for Osama bin Laden to deploy and detonate a major weapon in the United States. Only Osama can execute an attack which will force Americans to demand that their government protect them effectively, consistently, with as much violence as necessary."http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=auQJVhNH99c
"Last night Glenn Beck's guest was ex-CIA person Michael Scheuer, who stated that the only hope for the country was for Osama Bin Laden to 'deploy and detonate a major weapon in the United States.' Seriously."

Most of us agree that we can do more to bring our lives into better balance with nature. Even tiny decisions such as choosing the proper hand soap or recycling our daily newspaper can help improve the health of our planet, and of course also improve our own health. If you are ready to feel better and become a more responsible citizen of the world, here are 5 ways to become more green and incorporate eco friendly habits into your everyday life:
1. Act Eco Friendly At Home Eco friendly living always starts at the heart of your existence - your home. Small changes in habits can really reduce waste and lower your bills, while also improving the quality of your home life. Always sort and recycle your paper, plastic and glass waste. Turn off your lights and electronics when not in use, turn down your water pressure while shampooing your hair or lathering up in the shower and never leave water running while doing dishes. Invest in recycled glass kitchenware, bamboo items and only purchase new furniture made from sustainable materials or recycled goods. Only use all-natural cleaners. If you can, install light sensors, low-flow aerators, solar panels and purchase energy efficient appliances.
2. Make Your Workplace Eco Friendly Eco friendly business practices is a concept that sounds more complicated than it actually is. If your office is not already minimizing printing and photocopying, i.e. paper waste, try and discuss other ways to reduce this output. Take the lead on a recycling plan. If you own your own business, reduce your energy waste by turning off electronics, heat, air conditioning and light at night. There are many quality office chairs made from recyclable materials; research and invest in these and other green furnishings if you can.
3. Shop Eco Friendly Products From your eye drops to your patio furniture, you can always choose to buy green things. Look for the USDA label on your food produce and your beauty products. If you see the French ECOCERT® seal on organic cosmetics, health and beauty products you know it complies with the strictest organic standards - just like our products do here at Sabon. When unsure always ask store employees about the products you are buying. Everything from eco friendly robomowers to bio bags makes the important statement that our planet is worth saving.
4. Wear Eco Friendly Clothes Eco friendly clothing is made from incredible materials such as bamboo and 100% recycled cotton. By wearing clothes made from recycled or sustainable materials you help save nature's resources, and by shopping for fashion that has not been created with harmful dyes or synthetic processing you also help keep the air, oceans and earth cleaner. 5. Choose Eco Friendly Bedding Your sleep environment can make a huge difference to your overall wellbeing. By choosing organic sheets, pillows and covers you can help alleviate skin irritations and allergies. If you do not suffer from these conditions, it can still prove invaluable to keep material close to your skin that is safe from harmful chemicals or processing. Eco friendly bedding, whether it is made from bamboo or luxuriously soft cotton, helps keep our oceans clear from toxins and our air free from dangerous chemical pollutants.
Whatever you do, remember that by taking small eco friendly steps every day you can make a big difference in the world. Your quality of life - as well as the lives of your fellow citizens - can become substantially better while you help care for our planet.

Nazareth frontman collapses on stage, band cancels tour
Listen to Nazareth on iHeartRadio
Nazareth is bringing their Canadian tour to an unexpected, abrupt end because frontman Dan McCafferty is sick. The "Cranbrook Daily Townsman" says problems started with the group's show in Cranbrook last Tuesday, when McCafferty collapsed on stage moments after Nazareth kicked off the concert.
Local promoter Isaac Hockley told the newspaper that McCafferty was having breathing problems, which led to his collapse.
The group's subsequent shows have been cancelled. While Nazareth hasn't made an official announcement about the tour or McCafferty's condition, posts on the venue websites for upcoming dates all indicate Nazareth won't be appearing as scheduled.

Trustee Michael J. Mungo dies
Michael J. Mungo, a retired real-estate developer, philanthropist and longtime member of the University of South Carolina Board of Trustees, died Sunday, April 11. He was 82.
Mungo was a devoted alumnus of USC and served on the Board of Trustees from the 11th Judicial Circuit from 1969 - 78 and again from 1982 to the present. He was vice chairman of the board from 1988 – 92 and was chairman emeritus from 1992 - 96. He was serving on the board's executive, fiscal-policy and intercollegiate-athletics committees at the time of his death.
At USC, he funded the Michael J. Mungo undergraduate and graduate teaching awards. The Michael J. Mungo Distinguished Professor of the Year Award is considered the highest honor for teaching at USC.
"Michael Mungo was the personification of loyalty, and his life story is an inspiration to all the Carolina faithful," USC President Harris Pastides said. "He gave his heart and soul to the University of South Carolina, and students, faculty and countless alumni have benefited from his selfless philanthropy, his wise counsel and his strong leadership. He will be deeply missed, but his legacy will live on through the scholarships and awards that he created, his work on the Board of Trustees and his involvement with so many important organizations on our campus."
Mungo founded The Mungo Co. in 1954 and developed the Riverside Forest subdivision off Broad River Road. The business is run by his sons, Steven and Stewart, and has grown into one of the country's largest home-building firms, having developed more than 50 subdivisions in suburban Columbia.
Mungo was born April 7, 1928, in Bethune, one of seven children born to Walter Whiteford and Beatrice Baker Mungo. He was 11 when his father, a logger and lumber dealer, died. His mother moved the family to Rock Hill, and Michael Mungo graduated from Rock Hill High School in 1945. He received an AB degree in government from USC in 1950. As a student, Mungo worked as a radio announcer for WRHI in Rock Hill and WNOK in Columbia and as a self-employed wallboard applicator, a job that would spark his interest in homebuilding.

So this is the latest event to be promoted by Mark Wartime Carling.
His last event UCMMA Contenders in Dundee ended in a shit storm with people not being paid , nightlubs being taken over, baseball bat wielding thugs allegedly turning up at peoples homes and forcing them to leave town.
Because of this storm accusations of dodgey weigh ins, mismatches , no or unqualified medical staff, making promises on behalf of suppliers he has no agreement with and many other concerning issues where raised about other UCMMA Contender events.
I must admit I was surprised to see him have another go at it but before he does I would be interested to know what is being done differently this time.
So Mr Wartime I would appreciate if you could answer some of these questions.
1)Have you got a Ltd company set up for your promotion?
2)Will you be paying people in advance on the night?
3)Who are your medical staff?
4)Who are your officials?
5)When and where are the weigh ins?
6)Who will be conducting the weigh ins?
7)Will the weigh ins be filmed?
8)Do you have all the money to pay for the event or are you relying on ticket sales? how is this going?

Steven Van Zandt's Netflix series launching second season next month
Listen to Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band on iHeartRadio
Fans of Steven Van Zandt's "Lilyhammer" will soon get to see new episodes. Netflix plans to roll out the second season on December 13th at 3:01 a.m. Eastern, 12:01 a.m. Pacific time.
All eight episodes of season two will be available immediately. The series stars the E Street Band guitarist as Frank "The Fixer" Tagliano, a mobster in the witness protection program who's been relocated to Lillehammer, Norway. Frank has a new identity in Norway, where he's Johnny Henriksen - a father of two who runs a successful nightclub.
In season two Frank's life as Johnny is jeopardized when people from his former life discover he isn't dead.
Netflix rep Ted Sarandos describes "Lilyhammer" as "mob show like no other," and says season two is "an amped up ride" that showcases Van Zandt "at his glorious, baddest best."

Would you like to save as your currency permanently or for this visit only?
basic accommodation, cheap noisy at night internal sound proofing poor, room ventilation poor ok for overnight before catching plane
the pool
Nothing Noise - Aeroplane noise and Train noise through the night. Also noise from kitchen staff from quite early in the morning. It was just too noisy
Air conditioning not working... childs cot filthy and broken. Swimming pool not in use. I had to carry childs cot to another room my self. Train running at the back of hotel. Planes landing during the night 500 meters from hotel. Strong smell of must in the rooms with mildew growing on the shower tiles.Shower door falling off so over all resembled a remake of faulty towers. All of the above.
Close to the airport Did not offer a shuttle service to airport so it costed 25 euro for a 5 min ride! Bathroom was extreamly small.
Absolutely not a 3 star - looks more like a no frills 2 star
Good Parking facilities and a good location for access to Rome's Ciampino Airport - oversall a generally good, clean, and practical Hotel. It was quite difficult to find initially as not many signposts around the area and a very basic breakfast.
Very nice and helpfull staff. There was no siwmming pool as advertised.
This hotel is very convenient to the airport, and we had an early flight. It is a budget hotel and good for the cost. Taxi for 5 minutes to airport cost over 30euro, starting at 19euro when we got in. This wiped out the savings of a budget hotel. We could hear the people in the room next door at 1:30am like they were in our room. We could hear the sink turn on, etc. as well.
Very clean, personnel kind, the hall is cold but rooms are very comfortable. The hotel is not that far from the airport of Ciampino, but, nevertheless, difficult to reach in the night and only by taxi (30 euros for less than 2 km!!!) No possibility of choice at the breakfast: they only serve 1 cappuccino, 1 croissant, 1 sandwich with jam or butter and a juice. Situated close to the airport and the railway, you can wake up at every train passing and from 6 a.m. by airplanes
Service is excellent
The employees at the Hotel were very friendly and polite. I missed a Gym, but else quite ok
English speaking and very helpful personel, clean and spacious room, very nice breakfast, good internet connection. Sometimes communication between restaurant and reception is bad - I was charged for a dinner, which was ordered by another room.
Good. Good.
The interior design is beautiful and staff very friendly! That the spa had such limited hours, while I wanted after 8 pm or very early in the morning.
nice hotel
Beautiful area, near to town, very relaxing
Very helpful staff, wonderful location.
Unfortunately, on a couple of occasions due to late night functions it was quite noisy.
The staff were particularly helpful and the food was extremely good. The view from our room and the verandah was striking. Coffee machines in the breakfast room rather than proper coffee.
The hotel is relatively close to the town centre. The free car park was a positive thing. I did not have much of contact with the staff, but they seem to be friendly. The hotel was under renovation. Therefore, I was annoying at one time due to that. I have stayed at the same hotel a couple of years ago and it was fine (and I think it is still fine).
The staff was very friendly, room was clean and comfortable, breakfast good.
Cheerful and helpful staff, Travelling with3 children we were allowed into the rooms early. Nothing appeared to be too difficult.
The hotel was great. The staff was helpful
I am happy I made the choice.
View of lake. Old/small room. Bed wasn't very comfortable.
Beautifull place to have a break and relax, with very friendly and helpul staff.
View was fantastic, restaurant was very good, town was a short walk and had several restaurants, shops and, of course, the Pope,s residence.
Tried desparately to cancel my Rome accommodation to stay an additional day- staff excellent and couldn't do enough
Beautiful setting, Hotel decoration is excellent and charming. Very good value for money. When we arrived we were told we could book a table for dinner, later that evening we tried to book a table but we were told we could not because of weddings and had to walk to Castel Gandolfo for our meal. Noise from the weddings was a little excessive at times when we tried to sleep.
Nobody speaks English, poor service of personel, dirty rooms, tv doesnt work, door lock on terrace broken
The staff were very helpful, polite and hospitable. The dinner was excellent and very reasonably priced. The view from the room is spectacular. The pool area was not furnished and the pool needed vacuuming. The room fan was very noisy. The breakfast was very mediocre and the coffee dreadful.
the location was off and we reached there a bit late in the evening and the station was deserted and scary. the room was very small and we had absolutely no space to move inside the room. when asked, they say all rooms in the hotel are of the same size. well, i don't have anything strong to recommend this hotel. the food we had for dinner was billed more even after clearly informing them of the dishes we had opted for. the bill should have normally been around 45 to 50 euros and the bill we got was for 76 euros. then they said they wrongly billed some items!!!!! strange indeed..
Very nice hotel with ample size room. Shower small, but common with Italian hotels.
the restorant very small bathroom, especially shower cabin
The Hotel Rooms, ( not bedroom ), quiet and surroundings, Could be a great Hotel but have missed opportunities and lost direction somewhere. Staff, Food & Drink, Pricing - E.G. Charging for Carafe of water clearer filled from Tap, Bedroom, Smallest tv ever, Sewerage Smells from Bathroom and Charging Guest for use of of Pool & Sauna. Not made clear how far out of town this hotel actually is.Very few guest there and made to feel as if we were an inconvenience. In complete contrast the Hotel we went to in Roma we were made to feel we were the only guests in the hotel.
The hotel is handy for the train station in Frascati..(15mins walk downhill but 25 mins uphill) Maybe I was just unlucky but my single room was very small and not very clean
An exceptional view, great old villa in the hills outside of Rome. Exceptional value for money. Not perfect if you're visiting Rome and want to see the main tourist attractions though: it's very far out of the city.
A very grand building. There were very few guests there. Rooms were pleasant. Pool much smaller then picture indicates Restaurant was expensive and service quirky, all the courses arrived together. Howling dogs from nearby kennels and inadequate air conditioning with no controls made for a restless night.
Great view over Rome Don't stay here if you want a 4 star hotel - its more 3 star! If that. No staff, you have to ask for someone to come to the bar, not that you would want to drink in their bar! The wind whistled in through the windon when closed and to top it off there was no hot water in the morning. The staff didn't care and I had to really complain before they would do anything about refunding part of what we had paid. I would rather have had a show than a refund but the attitude of the staff wasn't good. Oh and we chose this hotel to be not too far from Champino Airport, it still took an hour in the morning traffic.
the building was beautiful..........great history.........the views and grounds amazing hard to find in the dark, need very clear directions
attractive location, food good. The waiters were friendly and helpful. Reception mixed. some very helpful others more offhand Conferences took over the hotel at the expense of individual travellers. eg.the only bar was used for conference events, as was the outside terrace
Near Roma Ciampino Airport. Staff was unfriendly
amazing location and building. Small rooms
Everything is perfect ! Progress after progress !
location - spectactular - and close to where I needed to work
Originality of the room, access with car, private car parking Suggested improvement: glasses in minibar and in bathroom, more accessories in bathroom (kleenex, showercap)
Good value! Clean, secure and comfortable room with large flat screen. No restaurant on the facility to serve a continental breakfast. No hotel signs anywhere to identify the hotel. Fortunately the gas station attendant next door knew it.
Modern furniture. No wireless internet.
The shjower in the bedroom!!
nice and clean, pretty new wifi was very slow...
Very nice hotel with modern design. Small room but everything was designed perfectlly. I like the automation (lights etc). It had coffe maker in the room (with charge), microwave oven, VCR, Private parking outside the room. Good price for the room. A/C had a problem and room was cold. The receptionist had to close entire A/C. Shower shouldn't have, transparent glass. In case you travel with a non close person (wife girlfriend) there is a problem. The doors should open automatically without having to get outside the car and rign the bell. I was told to pay in advance during check in.
modern rooms breakfast room & choice of food
parking outside the room we spent 2 hours trying to find the hotel, it had no sign out side what so ever
Flat screen t.v. Not enough toilet paper and no access to it after hours, hard to reach location, no signs, no food to buy around the area
it was a very good experience to stay in this hotel we had a very good time everything was good
Excellent location, terrific air conditioning, and view of the lake
Good and clean hotel near Rome. Beautiful view of the Castel Gandolfo lake. Easy access to Rome dowtown. There is a train station near the hotel but is better if you have a car but parking is a little difficult because places are on the street and not in great quantity. parking is not easy
Location Fantastic, very central...
Very confortable hotel in a small but lively village with good transport connections.
Nice small town, within walking distance to shops, restuarants, catholic church and the Pope's summer residence (June, July, August) where he blesses the audience on Sunday at 12noon in 7 different languages. Rooms are small but clean.
A lovely location with fabulous views and in centre of pretty,tiny town.Very neat hotel. Good breakfast. Host was very helpful.Proximity to Rome by train was brilliant. Little room for our suitcases in the room we had.On arrival, the young man at the desk was helpful but had very little English - made asking for directions a bit difficult.
stunning views, good clean rooms parking difficult
views from terrace it was quite noisy
very nice and quiet location - historical city and almost no cars on the street. Very friendly and professional team. Hotel owned by the family experienced in hotel business. Very clean, fantastic lake view from the room. Free WIFI. No problems at all !!! Very good restaurant in the same building.
The friendeliness of the staff was outstandingly warm and could not do enough for you.
The friendlyness of the staff. The breakfast is ok but is too oriented to sweets. Instead it would be good if there are scramble eggs, bacon, ham, sausages and so forth. The available dishes on restaurant menu are too oriented to pasta and the selections are simply too few. The cooking was not good at all neither the prices. The interior of the restaurant is too sterile.
The room was modern, bathroom fixtures all new and very roomie. It had internet wi/fi with no extra cost and it worked. All through Europe we found old hotels, cramped and if they did have wi/fi it was on and off. A pleasure to stay here. It was challenging getting downtown to Rome and back on the trains. The trains had little information about where to go and when to get off.
The behavior at the reception was awesome. I like the guy's attitude towards the customer. I also liked the cleanliness and the atmosphere. I did not like my room. The room was too small, and fully stuffed with furniture. Had the planning of furniture been better, the room appeared to be little bigger. The quality of the pillow and the mattress was poor too.
The hotel if you have a car is perfect. It is new, and you can go by car to a metro station(15 min away). The price for this hotel is too low if you compare with other hotel inside rome you have to pay double at least. So it is better to stay outside if you have a car (only). The breackfast.
brand new hotel, clean & comfort rooms, underground garage with direct access to rooms by lift, free wifi, swimming pool, next to highway (if you have a car this hotel is great and offers direct access to rome and the coastal area). I found the airconditioning quite noisy for a brand new hotel besides that there is nothing negative I can tell about this hotel
I liked the staff and the atmosphere of the Hotel... The lack of ample recreational facility... I believe that guests should have some sort of recreation within the hotel premises as the hotel is quite a distance from city center. A pool table or social lounge where games are available would be nice.
The hotel is brand new (2010 talking), cool and nice to sleep in. Easy to get to, and there rooms are good. The WiFi service is not handling data very well, bad coverage of the rooms, so my internet connection was slow.
Underground parking, free WiFi internet, free shuttle (and a good punctual service) to Ciampino train station (shuttle takes 15-20min) - frequent trains from the station to Rome Termini (every 10-15 min). The hotel has also hd tv internet (keybord in your room), multi-language tv. Good breakfeast. It is a modern hotel and it is very clean. No negatives.
equipments of the hotel nothing
Food was excellent Difficult to find by car
Beautiful facilities, views and people. Internet access is very expensive.
the courtesy bus provided there were 2 weddings on at the hotel, we felt like we were in the way and our booking was secondary. when we arrived we asked about the eating in the restaurant, but this seemed like an inconvenience the reception said they couldnt book for us, but there was noone around to help with our booking, we ended up eating in town!
I loved it Nothing I loved it
Beautiful setting; very courtous staff; good cousine and very relaxing They still charge WIFI access - 20 EUR per day
The quiet...it was way away from everything, and the view. It was very difficult to find, and to get back and forth. The shuttle ran hourly, but made an evening in Rome very difficult to arrange.
Broken toilet seat in room
It is an absolutely fantastic place!
Very good service at bar and at dinner on second night of stay. Delightful situation and grounds. Fake flowers. No dinner or food available on arrival at 8.30pm due to an event
Very nice hotel, easy access to Rome, would stay again. Perfect for a Rome wedding
Very helpful and personable staff. Beautiful quiet setting in the hills overlooking Rome
Very helpful. They got us to airport for 6:30 flight for extra charge, as the normal shuttle hours to Ciampino is 7 to 21 Shower pressure was low. Probably due to hard water.
Exelent stay ! We liked our stay at this hotel very much, nice big rooms, and the shuttle service was great.
We arrived late yet we got a warm friendly family welcome and made dinner on the terrace. Beautiful views over the city of Rome and very clean and fresh beautifully restored rooms.
quiet location, easy connections if you have a car, large room on 2 levels nice for family with kids, clean a little damp inside and sewers smell outside rooms at ground level in the morning, breakfast less than average, one loud birthday party organized in hotel main hall until 01:00 AM, I refused to pay total amount due for that night
Extremely friendly and helpful staff. They couldn't have done more for us. It was only opened one week, so they explained they have yet to improve the sign posting of the property along the route to the hotel, but they stayed in contact on the phone helping us to get there.
Very much indeed. Problems with hotel car service meeting arrangements.
Was pleasantly pleased with our room, the location and the cleanliness of this hotel. Got the business card and will use it again. It was a bit hard to find.
Once again we enjoyed our visit for the third time. Particularly useful is the complimentary taxi service which we used to and from the station to get in and out of central Rome.
The staff were excellent, the design, the service all excellent
Location embedded in the beautiful hillsides outside Rome, friendly and efficient staff, very reliable shuttle service, close to Ciampino airportand railway station, home cooking on demand, nice wines.
Nice hotel,lovely setting a car is essential
Breathtaking landscape, quiet area, the garden of the estate is very spacious and well groomed, nice pool, helpful staff. Very basic facilities. Althugh rating itself as a 4* hotel it is in fact more of a lodge (agritourismo), nice and clean but not very pampering. The room was quite small with very few ameneties. There is no one on duty after 10 p.m. and no way to get a hot drink, let alone food.
Small, quiet location, very friendly service. Also good views and excellent value for money. No restaurant - but not really a problem - plenty close by. Wide variation in size of rooms.
Lovely swimming pool with beautiful views. Large room with very large well equiped bathroom. We were able to have a family room with balcony There was no restaurant so we had to go out to eat. There was no sitting area/lounge inside the hotel to have a drink and read etc.
Exceptional staff, unbelievably beautiful location Not that easy to get into Roma, but worth it for the peace and quiet
The hotel was very friendly and well run.
Clean, friendly staff, everything worked in the room, and it was very quiet at night. Lovely grounds and nice pool. Second visit here and will return. No complaints. Basic items for breakfast, but all was good and they would bring more if you asked.
It was everything I had hoped for and more. Beautiful views, service, grounds, and room. All above my expectations
luxory and near Rome ande Ciampino The big appartment was at top floor with a low roof... It bekame dark and smaller that it really is....
The ladies on reception were excellent The television in the room was very poor, the main channels did not work (rai 2)
Excellent location if you have an early flight leaving from Ciampino Airport. Except for the airport proximity, there is no other reason for me to choose this hotel.
The hotel was close to the airport, but not walking distance. Some of the staff were very rude. The beds were very hard and you cannot walk to the airport like we were told.
In the middle pf nowhere
It is near the airport Good breakfast Staff were not too friendly
Very good Restaurant
the restaurant wa very good. staff were friendly and the food excellent. the fish was great and the pizza looked sooooo good. internet access in lobby was a plus also. the hotel has a shuttle bus to the airport which is so handy. the shower area was grubby looking and the walls are thin.
Useful Aircraft?
It's an okay place to spend a short night if you have an early morning flight. There is a shuttle to the airport for a small fee. The dining room was excellent. The beds were just awful and the walls are paper thin.
Bar staff were helpful. restaurant staff were poorly organised.
Wifi was only in the lobby, bed was hard as a rock, smelled weird, and horrible lighting in the bedroom.
Its location
ease of access back to Ciampino airport
Made to feel very welcome, genuinely warm staff, helpful, generous and courteous to their guests. Good adjacent restaurant. All round professional service. I liked my room, it was simple, modern and pretty. There was nothing to not like except that i wasn't driving and I had to get access to Frascati train station by taxi everytime i needed to go to rome. Bus service is poor.
Attitude of the staff and general good warm atmosphere No
I liked the fact that they were happy to move us to a room with a bath when we found that the room we were allocated only had a shower and I had emailed them to confirm that there was a bath in the bathroom to which they replied affirmatively. The smaller room at the front was very hot and noisy (1 night of our 4 was in here)
Very nice rooms in a quaint Italian town. Very large rooms with a wonderful breakfast selection. Staff spoke little English. Location is a little inconvenient from attractions in Rome. Transporation to and from Hotel can be difficult at times. If you miss the last train in evening then it is very expensive to take a taxi back to hotel.

Hi john57
you can do this by this command
setg lhost 192.168.0.12
this will make this IP the default one.
Hi everybody !
I have a problem with Armitage and i don't find any solution :
When i want to lunch a an exploit, now the default LHOST always is an IP that i put manually one day (192.168.0.13)
For each exploit, i have that ip by default and i can't to fix that to let it empty, and that armitage take my real ip on the network (126.96.36.199)
When a open the windows before launch an exploit, the wrong ip 192.168.0.13 is present. I can change it but i would prefer that
armitage take it automatically. I think it can make some troubles in hail mary too if it take 192.168.0.13 by default...
how can i fix it to have a automatical LHOST and that armitage launch the exploit automatically with my real ip on the network ?
Modify a config file ? remove a user file ? Options in armitage to recover default configuration ? Armitage or metasploit problem ? (i tried to put a "set LHOST 192.168.0.12" in msf console, but armitage continue to put 220.127.116.11 by default in LHOST")
Thanks !
(sorry for my english :P)

Thanks you anashlali !
I imagine at some point you have used the "save" command.
Either delete /root/.msf4/config, or:
(This is for msfconsole, presumably the same for Armitage)Code:unsetg LHOST save

Robert's first release with the label will be an album with the Sensational Space Shifters. Details on the project are expected to be unveiled soon, along with new tour dates.
Plant and the Sensational Space Shifters have concerts scheduled this summer throughout Europe. The band will also appear at the Summer Sonic Festival in Japan in August. They'll launch their road work at a festival in Morocco on June 5th.

PHILADELPHIA – After salvaging a 1-1 tie with Yale on Saturday -- keeping their Ivy title hopes flickering in the process -- the University of Pennsylvania women's soccer team heads to Providence this weekend to face the team it is tied with for second place in the standings, Brown. The Quakers and Bears will kick off Saturday at 7 p.m.
Around the Ivies
Penn (3-1-1) and Brown (3-1-1) may already be out of the Ivy League title race by the time they kick off on Saturday night. That's because Harvard (5-0-0) hosts Dartmouth (3-2-0) at 1 p.m., and can clinch the title and accompanying NCAA Championship berth with either a win or a tie. (The Crimson hold the tiebreaker over the Quakers and the Bears, having already beaten both of them this season.) Also at 1 p.m. on Saturday, Yale (2-2-1) is at Columbia (0-3-2). Cornell (1-4-0) and Princeton (0-4-1) will kick off Saturday at 7 p.m. in New Jersey.
The Series with Brown
Penn leads the series, 10-9-3, and is 8-2-2 over the Bears in the last 12 matchups. That said, four of the last six matches have gone to overtime, including last year's that ended as a Quaker victory after Megan York scored in extra time at Rhodes Field. Penn and Brown tied, 0-0, two years ago in Providence; four years ago, the Quakers won 1-0 in overtime.
About Brown
The Bears (8-5-1, 3-1-1) played Harvard in a non-conference game on Tuesday, and fell to the Crimson in overtime, 1-0. Their only loss in Ivy play also came to the Crimson, 3-1 on October 19, while the Ivy tie was at Columbia on October 5. Chloe Cross has six of Brown's 15 goals this season, while Mika Siegelman -- a first-team All-Ivy pick last year -- has three and Kiersten Berg has two. Annie Gillen, who was second-team All-Ivy last year, leads the Bears with four assists while Cross has three. In goal, Amber Bledsoe and MC Barrett have split duties. Bledsoe has a 1.29 GAA and a .827 save percentage, while Barrett is at 0.93 and .781.
RPI Talk
Penn entered the week with the best Ratings Percentage Index (RPI) among the Ivy League programs, at 51. The RPI, of course, is the major factor when the NCAA Championship field is picked in a few weeks. If the Quakers want to be in the conversation for an at-large NCAA bid, they can do themselves a world of good with a road victory this weekend against the Ivy team with the second-best RPI (Brown, 71). Realistically, Penn's RPI probably needs to be in the high 30s to mid-40s at the end of the season for the Red and Blue to even think about the possibility of an at-large bid.
Academic Honors
The College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) announced the Capital One Academic All-District teams in women's soccer on Thursday, and two Penn women were honored in District II, seniors Kathryn Barth and Claire Walker. They are the fifth and sixth women in program history to be recognized at this level by CoSIDA, and the first since Adrienne Lerner in 2011. This also marks the first time Penn has had two women earn Academic All-District in the same season. Barth and Walker are now eligible for Capital One Academic All-America honors; those will be voted on by CoSIDA members in November.
About Penn
*At 10-1-4, Penn is making history. Using the formula of three points for a win and one for a tie, the Quakers have 34 of a possible 45 points this season. The only other Penn teams that had 34 points or more at the 15-match mark were 2011 (13-2-0/39 points), 2007 (11-3-1/34), 2001 (12-1-2/38), and 1999 (11-3-1/34).
*In addition, this is only the second time that Penn has had just one loss at this point in the season, the other being 2001 (12-1-2).
*Penn's .800 win percentage put them 21st nationally at the start of the week.
*Penn has had at least 10 wins in two of the last three seasons, three of the last five, and four of the last seven campaigns.
*Penn is 37-10-8 over its last 55 matches dating back to the 2010 season. In those 55 matches, Penn has more shutouts (34) than goals allowed (32).
*Penn is 19-5-4 in its last 28 Ivy League matches, dating back to the 2009 season.
*Penn has not lost to an Ivy League team at home since a 2-1 loss to Columbia on Oct. 8, 2010. Since then, the Quakers are 10-0-1 on Rhodes Field against Ivy opposition, the tie coming two weeks ago against Yale.
*Penn had a shutout streak of 697 minutes snapped when Yale scored on Saturday; it was the first goal the Quakers had allowed in the month of October.
*Penn was the last team in NCAA Division I to allow a goal this season -- Old Dominion finally dented the Quakers' net on September 22 -- and has allowed just six goals in 15 matches.
*Penn entered the weekend third in the nation in shutout percentage (.733) and fourth in goals-against average (0.37). Two years ago, the Quakers led the nation in shutout percentage (13 in 17 matches) and allowed just seven goals all season.
*Never mind keeping teams off the score sheet; Penn just isn't giving teams many chances to score. The Quakers have outshot their opponents by a whopping 206-107 so far this season, and Quaker goalies Kalijah Terilli and Katherine Myhre have been called upon just 34 times to make saves (Terilli 26, Myhre 8).
*Penn has had 10 different players score its 23 goals this season.
*Penn has had one scoreless tie this year, and three others where goals were scored. In those three ties, the Quakers spotted the opposition their goals first (2 for ODU, 1 for Lehigh, 1 for Yale) before coming back to salvage the draw.
*Senior Kerry Scalora had Penn's goal in the Yale match, a penalty kick in the 90th minute. It was Scalora's third PK goal this season, and her team-leading sixth overall.
*Scalora enters the weekend with 16 career goals and 12 career assists for 44 career points.
*Sophomore Erin Mikolai had a goal and an assist last Tuesday at NJIT, coming on the heels of her performance against Dartmouth last weekend when she might have been the best player on the field and assisted the winning goal.
*Mikolai now has five points on the season (1g, 3a) and is tied for the team lead in assists with Clara Midgley -- who assisted Mikolai's goal at NJIT -- and Scalora.
*Laura Oliver also had a goal at NJIT, her first this season.
*Junior Megan York had Penn's goal against Dartmouth, her third tally this season. She also has two assists for eight points.
*Penn's win at Navy on October 14 was the program's 200th all-time (after the Dartmouth win, the program's all-time record is 201-143-39). Head Coach Darren Ambrose has been at the helm for 137 of those victories.
*The Navy win also guaranteed Penn a winning overall record for the 2013 season. The Quakers have finished above .500 every one of Coach Ambrose's 14 seasons.
*Penn boasts two women who earned All-Ivy honors last year, seniors Scalora (first-team forward) and Brianna Rano (second-team defender). Scalora was also the 2010 Ivy League and ECAC Rookie of the Year.
*Senior Kathryn Barth, meanwhile, was a second-team All-Ivy and second-team NSCAA all-region selection two years ago, as a sophomore.
Up Next...
Penn will close out the regular season next Friday night, hosting archrival Princeton at 6 p.m. on Rhodes Field.

...going from a jesus to a god and then to a co-creator spirit within in this ascension process....i have grown within since the thread started so please bare with me..777=7.77 food pH level in the body...so if you want to be a god/creator in your temple and your kingdom>...first you must become a "jesus" in your temple/body and kingdom/mind with the keys...the first key is die-t<see the cross and the word die...and the second key is manna which is potassium iodide KI crystals<it looks like white colander seed as the codebook describes it...the diet and manna is to flush out all unnatural foods/drinks we have stored since birth because our kingdom/pineal gland and other 7 parts of your brain and temple/body, stores it instead of burns it or passes it out...eat what the codebook tells us to put into our body/temple and taking our manna and in about 6-8 months to clean our temple and kingdom out to be the jesus,but we continue the manna and diet... we will be god/creator spirit in our temple and kingdom with the 3rd key of positive attitude/thinking and remembering we are spirit within
...Romans 8:14>we all can be a jesus... sulfur based microscopic parasites live in mud critters>cattle,pigs,catfish,founder,etc. and is the hell referred to by "jesus" because cooking doesn't kill them(worms)..."their worm does not die and the flame is not quenched" is said of people in hell...and today's grocery store meat is also packed full of chemicals...only ocean fish doesn't have chemicals added and the jesus symbol is the fish with scales,but not bottom dwelling fish in the die-t
...this is how i because a "jesus" then a "god" in my own temple and kingdom and then a co-creator as i remembered i/we are spirit within that created the religious concepts...die-t and manna will get you to jesus state,then maintaining the 2 keys with the 3rd key will get you to a godlike state in your temple and your kingdom and then into our co-creator spirit within state...these keys i/we give to everyone....the bible is also metaphors of our ego traits freewill,humility,pride,desire and vanity to hang upon our cross and die to as humility at the head of the cross cry's out for the creator...pride and vanity are nailed together at the feet as free will and desire are nailed at the hands...the statute of liberty has 7 points in it crown because of the 2 sides of the brain,pineal gland,pituitary gland,thalamus,cerebellum and medulla...the torch symbolizes the pineal gland lit like a burning flame... the 8th brain part that all together form the divine feminine...and the bible is also about our 6 senses..
PS as "gods" code book gave us the diet and manna ,we must supply the other 3 keys of an open mind ,an open heart and positive thinking/attitude to produce the 5 pointed star of venus the morning star to rise in our hearts..after maintaining that, the 6 pointed star of 3 points above and 3 points below will be given making us a co-creator in our temple and kingdom...(((here's an recent edit ,the longer i have used the keys i remembered we are all co-creators with the same shared spirit and our spirit existed before the creation making us co-creators instead of gods,goddesses,saviors or prophets,

There's been a change to the card.

We have managed to find a replacement for Marcin, he will now face tough Scotsman Adam Stevenson (5-5) who recently took top fighter Graham Turner the distance in his last outing.

Herald Staff
MONROE — Officials have identified two east Snohomish County men who died Sunday in a car accident near Monroe.
Sean R. Peters, 23, of Monroe, and Ryan L. Kenyon, 25, of Sultan, both died from head injuries, according to the county Medical Examiner's Office. Their deaths were ruled an accident.
Police believe both men were in a car that left the road and crashed through a fence in the 23200 block of Sofie Road, about two miles east of town.
The collision may have occurred around 1:30 a.m. Neighbors told Snohomish County sheriff's deputies that they heard a noise about that time but couldn't see what caused it.
A delivery truck spotted the car about 5:25 a.m. and called 911. When deputies arrived, they found the men dead at the scene.
Both were wearing seat belts. Investigators found no immediate signs of drugs or alcohol being involved. Speed was believed to be a factor.

It gets rather irritating fishing through them. And not using the search bar or even looking for another umpteen hundred threads with the same title is just straight up ignorance.

News Releases by Year
A 10-year history shows REALTORS®' evolving use of technology, the Internet and social media and the essential role that technology plays in the real estate transaction.
After hitting the highest level in nearly four years, existing-home sales declined in September, but limited inventory conditions continued to pressure home prices in much of the country.
Today's ever-evolving technology world is transforming the real estate industry, not only with new applications and tools, but also in generating volumes of information about how people approach and conduct real estate transactions. To help Realtors® understand and interpret these trends, the National Association of Realtors® has hired Todd Carpenter to fill a new position, Managing Director of Data Analytics.
NAR testified today before the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs that defaulting on the nation's federal debt could be disastrous for the U.S. economy and catastrophic for the housing recovery.
Nearly nine out of 10 recent home buyers said that heating and cooling costs were somewhat or very important when considering a home for purchase, indicating the importance of energy efficiency and environmentally friendly home features.
The five individuals named as this year's REALTOR® Magazine Good Neighbor Awards winners demonstrate how Realtors® value helping those in need and that many of them are committed to selfless service.
Pending home sales slowed in August, with tight inventory conditions, higher interest rates, rising home prices and continuing restrictive mortgage credit impacting the market.
Existing-home sales increased in August and reached the highest level in six and a half years, while the median price shows nine consecutive months of double-digit year-over-year increases.
NAR President Gary Thomas released a statement about NAR's role, over the past five years, in shaping policies to stabilize the market, recover home values, ensure access to affordable credit, and renew faith in the value of home ownership.
Realtors® have always been invested in helping military service professionals find housing solutions that best meet their needs and allow them to take full advantage of their military benefits.

Reds Prospect Primer: Stephenson soaring
Team's top prospect could pitch himself to the Majors this season
By Robert Emrich / MiLB.com | March 28, 2014 10:00 AM ET
Some players are on the verge of stardom, others are entering a crucial phase of their development and still others are getting their first tastes of full-season ball. With the 2014 season approaching, MiLB.com takes a look at the most intriguing prospects from each MLB organization.
Shining star: Robert Stephenson, RHP
Stephenson took a significant step forward in 2013, pitching at three levels and ending the season at Double-A Pensacola. For the year, he was 7-7 with a 2.99 ERA in 22 starts. With a fastball that reaches the upper-90s and a curveball that grades out at a 70, the 21-year-old right-hander racked up 136 strikeouts while limiting Minor League batters to a .217 average. MLB.com's No. 19 prospect put up a respectable 1.11 WHIP as well, showing that he's no wild horse either.
In fact, command might be where he made his biggest strides. Stephenson issued 35 walks in 2013, 13 of which came in four Double-A starts for the Blue Wahoos. His walks-per-nine-innings rate dropped from 3.2 in 2012 to 2.8 last year, all the while pitching at higher levels and throwing more innings.
Breakout candidate: Kyle Waldrop, OF
A strong second half has put the Florida native on the map. After posting a .665 OPS prior to the All-Star break, Waldrop seemingly figured out the California League, batting .298 with 11 homers and an .871 OPS. For the season, the 22-year-old slugged 21 homers and swiped 20 bases while collecting 32 doubles.
"Kyle Waldrop really had a strong second half," said Reds director of player development Jeff Graupe. "He made a few mechanical adjustments, improved his approach and really finished the year strong. We're really excited about how he was able to perform in the second half of the season."
This year will provide the stage for Waldrop to prove that his success was more than just a California League-induced haze as the former high school football player will likely begin the season at Double-A Pensacola. In his favor is the fact that his OPS has remained extremely consistent over the last three years -- .776, .777, .776.
At the crossroads: Gabriel Rosa, OF
A second-round pick in the 2011 Draft, Rosa struggled again in his repeat season with Billings in 2013, though there were positive signs. The 20-year-old drew 25 walks, which was nearly three times as many as he had drawn over the course of his career. An infielder-turned-outfielder, Rosa slugged six homers and batted .211 over a career-high 53 games for the Mustangs.
"I would say 2014 is an important year for Gabriel Rosa," said Graupe. "Gabby had some health setbacks in 2012, learned a new position in 2013, put in a lot of good work, worked on his offensive approach, and I'm excited if all his hard work translates to the results expected of him in 2014."
More to keep an eye on: Acquired from the D-backs over the winter, left-hander David Holmberg could find himself in the Majors this season if one of the Reds' starters goes down with an injury. The hurler was fourth in the Southern League with a 2.76 ERA over 26 Southern League starts while maintaining a 1.19 WHIP for Mobile. ... Jesse Winker is coming off a big year in Dayton, surprising some by slugging 16 homers. The 20-year-old outfielder also drew 63 walks while batting .281 to earn Reds Minor League Hitter of the Year honors. ... Ben Lively might have gone 0-4, but it was through little fault of his own. The 2013 fourth-round pick owned a sparkling 0.88 ERA in 13 starts between Billings and Daytona, limiting hitters to a .161 batting average. Lively utilized a four-pitch mix to record 56 strikeouts while walking 13 batters over 41 innings.

Retro Resources is a feature that highlights classroom and library materials you may have missed.
For our first Retro Resource feature, we'd like to highlight an educator guide for a book that quickly became a favorite in our department: Crow by Barbara Wright. Impeccably researched and heartbreaking, Crow is the story of a young African American boy witnessing white supremacists oust the city government of Wilmington, North Carolina–the only successful coup d'etat in American History. We're not alone in our love, either–the book received starred reviews from School Library Journal, Publishers Weekly, Kirkus, and The Horn Book when it was published in January 2012. While it's set after the Civil War has ended and before the implementation of the Jim Crow laws in the south, we feel that it will enrich units on either time period and serve as a great way to introduce talking points on African American history and how it's portrayed, government and government structure, prejudice, and the Civil Rights Movement.

Try the following.
Originally, I was unable to connect to the internet at all, but I've worked through this problem a bit on my own. When I was first unable to connect to the internet, the output of ifconfig wlan0 was
root@bt:/etc/resolvconf/run/interface# ifconfig wlan0
wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1f:3c:48:08:86
inet addr:18.104.22.168 Bcast:22.214.171.124 Mask:255.255.252.0

collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:838013 (838.0 KB) TX bytes:43790 (43.7 KB)
which obviously seems strange because I have 3 ipv6 addresses. The first time I noticed the error, I actually had 6 or 7. I tried restarting the network, which didnt help. I also tried restarting my entire system, which also didnt help. I noticed an error during boot that said in red
I tried to copy that down on a piece of paper as it flew by on boot, so if there appears to be a spelling mistake in there, it's probably my fault. I finally was able to resolve this problem by going to /etc/resolvconf/run/interface and deleting wlan0.txt. I got this idea, because I saw another error go by during boot that said something along the lines of being unable to remove that file. After another reboot, I was able to connect to the internet normally.Code:/etc/rcS.d/s07resolvconf: line50: /etc/resolvconf/run/enableupdates: read only file system failed (could not enable updates)
So now I can remove that file manually after boot, then reboot, and I can connect wirelessly. This is not ideal. I dont recall modifying my system in any way before this problem occurred. Any idea whats wrong? If you need the exact boot errors I'm receiving, please let me know the location of the boot logs. Thanks
Try the following.
If that doesn't work then run wicd as root in terminal (this will start the service) and then launch wicd from the menu.
ok... why are you trying to write this stuff down during boot up? Not sure about your pc but that stuff goes by way too fast on my laptop.
in Konsole, try typing dmesg or if you want just from wlan0 type dmesg | grep wlan0
looking through there would give you an idea what is having the issue.
without knowing too much info like if you use static IP or not, maybe try flushing DNS /etc/rc.d/init.d/nscd restart then do an ifwlan0 down/up or maybe run dhclient
alternatively, you could try making resolv.conf immutable by typing chmod -w-w-w /etc/resolv.conf
Thanks. I'm more or less familiar with the basics of starting networking. I did take a look at that page though to see if I could gain any additional information. I've been able to connect to the internet, with no problems in the past. If i want to connect to the internet now, I have to remove /etc/resolvconf/run/interfaces/wlan0.txt and reboot.
That file contains
During boot, an error says it is unable to remove this file. I've never seen this error in the past, and I've always been able to connect to the internet. Typically my solution to something like this would be to just reinstall bt4 since its so easy, but I'm trying to work through the problem this time.Code:domain client.pavlovmedia.net nameserver 22.214.171.124 nameserver 184.108.40.206 nameserver 22.214.171.124
I want to apologize for double posting, but I have to wait for a mod to approve my last post before I can edit it.
I just wanted to site several other places that this problem has been reported. No one seems to have found a definitive solution, but several people have noted installing a vnc package prior to this. This now includes me, as i realized that I installed vpnc prior to this error occurring. Here are several links to other people reporting this problem, on other linux distros
Perhaps this should be considered a bug as it was never officially solved. After researching for a while, this bug has been identified on multiple other linux distros and results from the filesystem being read only at the beginning of the boot process for whatever reason.
No one has ever completely identified the cause of this, but a simple solution that has been used by many people is to simply move S07resolvconf to S39resolvconf in /etc/rcS.d. This starts resolvconf later in the boot process and appears to have no side effects. It worked for me and many others on other linux distros.

Security Council: Statement by Ambassador Wittig on Women, Peace and Security
(Statement as prepared for delivery by Ambassador Wittig in an Open Debate of the Security Council on Women, Peace and Security)
"Mr President,
I would like to thank Rwanda for organizing today's open debate on this important issue. My thanks also goes to the Secretary-General and to his Special Representative on sexual violence in conflict, Zainab Bangura, for their insightful briefings, as well as to Ms Saran Keita Diakite for her moving statement.
Germany aligns itself with the statements delivered by the European Union as well as by Canada on behalf of the Group of Friends of Women, Peace and Security.
Mr President,
Although the Security Council clearly stipulated in its resolutions 1820, 1888 and 1960 that sexual violence in conflict is a serious threat to peace and security, it still remains a neglected and under-reported crime.
The recent annual report of the Secretary General has brought to light some very disturbing findings. It shows that sexual violence is used in many conflicts as a "weapon of war" by armed groups and, in some cases, even by the armed forces. More than 30 parties from five countries are credibly suspected of committing or condoning sexual violence in conflict. And these are only parties in countries on the Council's agenda and on which the UN had verified information; the actual figures are, without doubt, much higher. Especially alarming is the fact that many of the victims are children.
Therefore, the ultimate goal of our discussion here today must be to find new and better ways of addressing this abhorrent crime. And the report before us contains some good recommendations in this regard.
Let me mention four points, especially important for us:
First: We welcome the work of the Monitoring and Reporting Mechanism and hope that it will continue to work together closely with other UN mechanisms to guarantee the best possible concerted action in the fight against sexual violence. We also welcome the dedicated work of SRSG Bangura and the fact that she was able to brief the Council several times during the past months, including on the situation in Syria and Central African Republic. However, the Council should make more use of the information received and do more to act and hold perpetrators accountable. It could, for example, release corresponding press statements, write specific letters to concerned governments or, more often, refer specific cases to the Sanctions Committees and – as a last resort – to the ICC.
Second: The Council should keep the issue of women, peace and security, including sexual violence, high on its agenda and make sure that all relevant reports, mandate renewals as well as country visits by the Council contain specific provisions in this regard. More Women Protection Advisors need to be deployed, including in UN assessment teams and missions.
Third: In "Security Sector Reform" and "Disarmament, Demobilisation and Reintegration (DDR)" programmes, more focus should be given to the needs of women and girls, not only as victims but also with a view to their active participation in reintegration processes. In peace agreements, sexual violence shall figure as one important provision; those who have formerly committed or condoned sexual violence should be excluded from amnesty provisions and not be accepted to serve in relevant official functions.
Fourth: Member States and regional organisations can also do more. Sexual violence shall under no circumstances be socially accepted. It is paramount to criminalize sexual violence by law, hold perpetrators accountable and provide help services and reparations for survivors. In this regard, we welcome the recent press statement by the African Union Peace and Security Council and its call to develop new strategies to fight sexual violence in conflict. Also, we are confident that the recent commitments made in the G8 context to address impunity for sexual violence in conflict will have a significant impact.
For my Government, confronting sexual violence is one of the priority areas in our new "National Action Plan on the implementation of resolution 1325". We actively support the UN, member states and civil society in their fight against sexual violence. Particularly NGOs and human rights defenders, as well as journalists who report about cases of sexual violence, are often at a higher risk of being targeted themselves. They all need our support to continue their invaluable work in raising awareness and helping governments prevent or ease the consequences of sexual violence.
Let me conclude by saying that the Council should remain seized of this important issue. It should not and cannot be separated from the broader security issues.
Thank you Mr President."

Zaha Hadid Architects (ZHA) ranks easily among the most-recognized design firms in the world. Along with its founder's recent entrée into damehood and countless other honors and award-winning projects, ZHA is known for the expressive, organic geometries that its buildings, furniture, and design objects assume. The firm is also a practitioner of parametricism, which uses advanced parametric design and computation methods to derive form. Pleated Shell Structures, at the SCI-Art Gallery, is a temporary, site-specific installation by ZHA that serves as a prototype for how digital parametric design can be realized as a tangible object.
Form-finding through physical models is a well-documented technique that Antonio Gaudi, Frei Otto, and Felix Candela employed using objects such as hanging chains, suspended cloth, and soap films. This installation brings the form-finding process into the 21st century and explores how the complex and often far-out forms generated through digital programming can be realized through the delivery methods available today. Through a design/build exercise, the installation will test the relationship between architectural intent, engineering logistics, and fabrication constraints as well as continue ZHA's reseach in self-supporting, curved-surface geometries. • Through Dec. 2. sciarc.edu
