SAN BERNARDINO - Gov. Jerry Brown pointed to Amazon's recent opening of a distribution center in the city as a sign of improvement for California's job market.
Amazon opened the center near San Bernardino International Airport in October. The facility was the first of three distribution centers to open in the state following a sales tax compromise between Sacramento and the Seattle-based Amazon.
The deal included Amazon's agreement to build the centers in California. In exchange, Amazon received a one-year break in having to add sales taxes to online sales.
Brown pointed to South Korean electronics firm Samsung's decision to build a research facility in San Jose as well as Amazon's decision to build centers in San Bernardino and two other cities as successes in job creation and tax policy.
"We also leveled the field on Internet sales taxes, paving the way for over 1,000 jobs at new Amazon distribution centers in Patterson and San Bernardino and now Tracy," the governor said.
Amazon has yet to open the centers in Patterson or Tracy, company spokeswoman Kelly Cheeseman said.
Former Senate Minority Leader Bob Dutton, who represented a Rancho Cucamonga-based district, helped negotiate the deal between Amazon and state officials.
Although Amazon, at the time, did not guarantee that they would set up shop in the San Bernardino area, Dutton said he was confident during negotiations that they would choose the Inland Empire.
"We're tailor-made for them. I knew from my business experience, all I had to do was show them the door," he said.
Amazon's San Bernardino center employs more than 700 people, Cheeseman said. More than 1,000 people worked there during the holiday shipping season.
The online retailer's San Bernardino center encompasses nearly one million square feet. Dallas-based Hillwood Investment Properties developed the center as part of its Alliance California complex, which is built upon former Norton Air Force Base land.
Hillwood's current projects include a 480,000-square-foot building adjacent to Amazon's center that is being built for an undisclosed Fortune 100 company, senior vice president John Magness said.
That building is likely to be completed around March 1.
Hillwood is also building a distribution center in San Bernardino for Cott Beverage near the crossing of Mill Street and Mill Avenue.
The developer also plans construction work at the North San Bernardino Industrial Park in the second quarter of this year.

Breastfeeding Commercial from LUVS Nappies- Cute and Funny!
Have you seen this new commercial from LUVS nappies? I doubt it will ever be released on television unfortunately, but it is so cool! I urge you to go to LUVS facebook page and YouTube site and tell them how cool this is! Cool, spot-on, and funny! A mainstream company finally got it right! I will definitely be looking for these when I buy disposable nappies from now on!

I am seeing this video in the form of ads on youtube videos now, which is great because it's targeting a very specific audience that will be much more open to considering the idea of breastfeeding... and breastfeeding in public.

Yeah, I love that commercial and I really appreciate, as it is trying to say that breastfeeding should be considered normal in public.
11th October 2013 10:33 PM #6
Thank you for your comments robthomas - I couldn't agree more. Breastfeeding should be normalised - this would mean that people saw babies being breastfed in public as the norm as so new mums felt more confident in doing so. I think we can take a little hope in that each time we breastfeed in public we are showing others that it is a normal way for a baby to get their milk and hopefully this will be of some encouragement to mums-to-be out there.


text: These all need to be: const pure nothrow @safe Unless this is done, the utility of const, pure, nothrow and @safe is rather crippled. Any reason why they shouldn't be? One reason is memoization, aka lazy initialization, aka logical const. I don't believe these are worth it. If you must do it inside those functions (and functions that override them), you're on your own to make it work right (use unsafe casts, etc.).

BEE GEE BARRY GIBB MAKES OPRY DEBUT The sole surviving member of The Bee Gees, Barry, performed for the first time since the death in May of his brother Robin. The oldest Gibb brother at 65 achieved a dream dating back to his childhood in Australia, when he made his debut on the Grand Ole Opry stage in Nashville, according to Country Weekly.
Gibb, a huge country fan, performed a brief three-song set with bluegrass veteran Ricky Skaggs. The set included two Bee Gees '60 s classics, "How Can You Mend a Broken Heart" and "To Love Somebody." He kicked off his showcase with a song from 1901, "When the Roses Bloom Again," that's been covered by Johnny Cash and Jeff Tweedy and his band Wilco.
During his performance a fan shouted out that they missed his brothers (the third brother, Maurice, died in 2003). Without skipping a beat, Gibb replied, "They're all here."
NASH SAYS CSN WILL RECORD AGAIN Graham Nash disputed bandmate Stephen Stills' assertion last month that Crosby, Stills and Nash will never record again, according to an interview with Music Radar.
"Crosby, Stills and Nash will do another record. We're right in the middle of one, "Songs We Wish We'd Written." We started that process with Rick Rubin. It didn't work out, but the idea is still a brilliant one."
As for the trio's relationship with Rubin in the studio, he said, "After almost 50 years of making records, we think we know what we're doing, so it's very hard to tell Crosby, Stills and Nash what to do. You can suggest anything you want, but you can't tell us what to do."
He elaborated, "We were recording at Shangri La in Malibu and it was not a great experience. First of all, he pissed off David Crosby. David said he wanted to do 'Blackbird' and another Beatles song. Rick said, 'There will only be one Beatles song.' Crosby said to him, 'There'll only be one Beatles song if we decide there will only be one Beatles song,' you know, like, 'who the (blank) are you to tell me.' From the start, it was irritable."
The band rerecorded the songs produced by Rubin, including The Rolling Stones' "Ruby Tuesday" and The Who's "Behind Blue Eyes."
Nash said CSN will continue recording the album after their summer tour wraps. That tour includes stops on Sept. 7 at the Greek Theatre in L.A., Sept. 28 at the Santa Barbara Bowl and two gigs, Sept. 29-30, at Humphrey's in San Diego.
In other Nash news, the former member of British Invasion band, The Hollies, who was presented an OBE by 2010 by Queen Elizabeth, but became a U.S. citizen in 1978, visited the political talk show, "Morning Joe" on MSNBC.
Among other assessments, he addressed the current avalanche of undisclosed campaign contributions, saying, "I think the very heart of what's going on, and I think one of the main issues is Citizens United. Not only would I like personally to see Citizens United reversed, I would like to have investigated those who gave them Citizens United, (Supreme Court justices) Scalia, Thomas, those people. I'm very upset about the Supreme Court right now. I think the ability to buy a democracy is a terrible, terrible thing."
Nash also doesn't like the Supreme Court's lifetime appointment. "I don't believe personally they should have lifetime jobs. I think people get senile. They think they're unbiased. They're not supposed to be. It's not good."
Always a staunch protector of the land and water, Nash was given the Conservation and Environmental Stewardship Award from the Stellwagen Bank Marine Sanctuary in Woods Hole, Mass. for "a lifetime of achievement spent passionately raising awareness and protecting whales."
THE WHO'S DALTREY GETS DEGREE Roger Daltrey, the 68-year-old singer for The Who, who was awarded a CBE by Queen Elizabeth in 2005 for his services to music, the entertainment industry and charity, has another honor. Daltry joined hundreds of students at the commencement ceremony at England's Middlesex University, where an honorary degree was bestowed upon him for his half-century contribution to music and acting.
The Who will embark on their first American tour since 2008 on Nov. 1 in Sunrise, Fla. The band will perform its epic 1973 rock opera "Quadrophenia" in its entirety. The 36-date two-part tour makes stops next Jan. 28 at the Honda Center in Anaheim, Jan. 30 at the Staples Center in downtown L.A., and on Feb. 5 at the Valley View Casino Center in San Diego.
KINKS' DAVIES ADDED TO OLYMPICS CLOSING? Britain's Telegraph is reporting that leaked documents of the London Olympics closing ceremony on Aug. 12 call for Ray Davies, legendary former leader of British Invasion icons The Kinks to appear, where he'll perform one of the most beloved songs in the history of British rock music, "Waterloo Sunset," the wistful, melancholy ode to London, the River Themes and Waterloo Station. The song first appeared on the 1967 album, "Something Else by The Kinks." It hit No. 2 on the British singles chart and is listed at No. 42 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.
If true, Davies will join his fellow British Invaders, The Who, and George Michael, who recently recovered from a near-fatal bout of pneumonia that forced his doctors to perform an emergency tracheotomy and keep the singer in an induced coma for nearly a month.
A 22-song, 2-CD anthology import, "Waterloo Sunset: The Very Best of The Kinks and Ray Davies," that spans their nearly 50 years, will be released Aug. 21. Being an import, the collection contains a considerable number of mid and late-'60 s songs that were hits for The Kinks in the U.K. and elsewhere around the world, but not here, including "Autumn Almanac," "Days" and "Plastic Man," as well as Davies' younger brother, Kinks guitarist Dave's hits with the band, "Death of a Clown" and "Strangers" and solo career songs such as "Fortis Green." Songs from Ray Davies' solo career include, "London Song" and "Next Door Neighbor." The title song from The Kinks final EP, "Did Ya," from 1991, is also included.
QUINCY JONES COMES OUT OF RETIREMENT At 79, composer-conductor-producer Quincy Jones is emerging from his semi-retirement to compose the film score for "The Butler," the fictional story of a man played by Forest Whitaker, who worked in the White House under eight presidential administrations.

Jones composed his first motion picture score in 1961 for the Swedish film, "The Boy in the Tree." He's received seven Oscar nominations for his film music, including "In Cold Blood" in 1968, "For Love of Ivy" in 1968, "The Wiz" in 1978 and "The Color Purple" in 1985.

ON THE CHARTS Reggae pioneer and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Jimmy Cliff's new album, "Rebirth," debuted on Billboard's Top 200 album chart at No. 76. Not a great start, but it is nonetheless the highest position on the Hot 200 that he has ever attained.
Thanks to an album sale on Amazon, Phil Collins' 1998 triple-platinum album, "Hits," is at No. 6. When the album was first released the highest it ever got was No. 18.
Recent new albums by classic artists in the Top 200 include Lionel Ritchie's guest star filled-country re-recording of his hits, "Tuskegee," is at No. 45; The Beach Boys reunion album, "That's Why God Made the Radio" is at No. 85; Neil Young & Crazy Horse's rocking CD of 20 th century songs, "Americana," is at No. 110; Bonnie Raitt's first new record in eight years, "Slipstream," is at No. 132; and Joe Walsh of The Eagles and The James Gang's first solo album in two decades, "Analog Man," that saw him backed by Ringo Starr and Jeff Lynne, sits at No. 156.

Jones apologized to the fans. British singer Will Young took Jones' place.
ERIC BURDON RECOVERING Eric Burdon is recovering from back surgery in an undisclosed California hospital, according to two posts on his Facebook page from his management team. The posted press release says the 71-year-old Animals singer has battled debilitating back pain for the past three years. This has forced Burdon to perform from a chair or stool in concert.
A tweet posted on his Facebook page says, "Successful back surgery earlier today & in hospital room watching opening of the Olympics. Looks like it's gonna be a painful recovery. Thanks for all the wishes on a speedy recovery and hope you've been keeping up with the Olympics, too!"
No date has been set for Burdon to return to performing.
DARLENE LOVE RECOVERING Darlene Love, who was a member of Phil Spector's Wall of Sound backup singing group, The Blossoms, and who hit No. 1 in 1962 singing lead for the girl group, The Crystals, on "He's a Rebel," is recovering from a minor heart attack, reports WCBS.
Love initially thought she was merely suffering a case of indigestion before her performance in Asbury Park, N.J. She performed the concert, but by the next day, the pain was so severe that she went to a hospital and was told that she had suffered a heart attack. Love, who just turned 71, was released two days later and was told that she'd be able to resume her normal routine shortly.
LEANN RIMES RECOVERING Country star LeAnn Rimes is canceling several concert dates because the singer, who became a star at 13, underwent eight hours of dental surgery that included a major root canal, reports People. Immediately after the procedure, she tweeted, "Out of surgery!!!! All is well. My whole face is numb and I'm starving, bad combo. Thx for all the prayers." In February, she had minor surgery on her mouth. She is scheduled for more oral surgery next week.
BOBBY RYDELL UPDATE Sixties teen idol Bobby Rydell, 70, continues to recover from a liver and kidney double organ transplant in a hospital in his native Philadelphia.
Rydell scored 18 Top 40 hits between 1959-1964, including the No. 2 hit, "Wild One" and the No. 4 biggie, "Volare."
His assistant, Linda Hoffman, posted an update on the singer's Facebook page, writing, "He continues to recover beautifully from this massive surgery." She added that he's been reading all the Facebook posts, emails and cards. "He says it's surreal. To be near death one day and to have his angel-donor's organs healing him the next day is just a miracle. His skin is pink now, and his eyes sparkle once more."
CHESNEY ADDED TO FARM AID Kenny Chesney has been added to the Farm Aid lineup at the Sept. 22 benefit concert in Hersheypark Stadium in Hershey, Penn., reports founding performer Willie Nelson.

"There's one more Hootie record and tour that we're going to do," he tells Billboard.
He admitted that he didn't know exactly when it would occur because he's devoting all his time to his country career. However, he did say that Hootie shows here and there are on the docket. "We've got two shows in August. We do about four or five dates a year."
SINGER TONY MARTIN DIES AT AGE 98 Debonair, big-voiced romantic Big Band singer Tony Martin died at his West Los Angeles home at age 98, reports the Associated Press.

NOW PLAYING Classic acts from the '50 s, '60 s and '70 s continue to perform. Here's what one of them is doing.
As lead singer of The Archies, Ron Dante had the best selling single of 1969 with Jeff Barry and his friend Andy Kim's "Sugar Sugar." The single sold more than the runner-ups, including The 5 th Dimension's "Aquarius/Let the Sun Shine In," "I Can't Get Next to You," by The Temptations, The Stones' "Honky Tonk Woman," Sly & The Family Stone's "Everyday People" and Tommy Roe's "Dizzy."
At the same time that "Sugar Sugar" was at No. 1, Dante had another hit in the Top 10, "Tracy," under the name The Cuff Links.
He then spent nearly a decade, from 1973-1981, producing a string of eight platinum and multi platinum albums for Barry Manilow. He produced and provided backup vocals on such Manilow smashes as "Mandy," "I Write the Songs" (written by Beach Boy Bruce Johnston), "Can't Smile Without You" and "Copacabana."
Dante, now 66, still performs occasionally on lineups with other veteran acts. On Aug. 18, he'll be at Meadow Park in Big Bear Lake, with former Badfinger singer-guitarist Joey Molland. He'll be in Pennsylvania for a couple gigs in September with shows on the 8 th in Pennsbury, with Charlie Thomas' Drifters, Shirley Reeves of The Shirelles, The Orlons and The Rip Chords, and at "A Night of Bubblegum Rock" at Hersheypark in Hershey that also stars The 1910 Fruitgum Company and Joey Levine of The Ohio Express.

|Home > Documentation > Installing and running > Getting and installing Geronimo
Apache Geronimo v2.2 is a Java EE 5 Certified server. Installation packages are available for both Windows and Unix (including Linux, Mac OS X) operating systems. In addition to the platform specific downloads, Geronimo is available in three main distributions which are the Java EE 5 Certified (Big-G), Little-G and Geronimo Framework. As suggested by the name, only the first one has full support of all the features and functions in the Java EE 5 specification and has passed SUN's Java EE 5 Certification Test Suite (CTS).
Little-G distribution includes a Web container and a subset of other modules from the certified Geronimo distribution. This is not a Java EE 5 compliant server but it is probably more appealing to users who look for a smaller footprint with specific functionality. Java EE 5 and Little-G assemblies are provided with Jetty or Tomcat Web Containers. You can find more information about the Jetty project here. More information on the Tomcat project is available here. Both are excellent Web Containers that are compliant with the Servlet 2.5 and JSP 2.1 specifications. Your choice may be driven by your past experience and particular functionality requirements.
The third distribution, Geronimo Framework, offers just that, a stripped down framework for you to build up your own custom Geronimo server based on the available plugins. Unlike Little-G, this distribution does not include a web container, it only provides the bare minimum support for installing plugins. This is particularly practical since Geronimo v2.2 is built up entirely from plugins, see the Administering plugins section for additional details.
You can find the source code and binary files of Geronimo v2.2 at http://geronimo.apache.org/downloads.html.
Depending on the platform you plan to install and run Apache Geronimo download the appropriate installation image. Select the appropriate file compression format for your operating system (.zip, .tar.gz) by clicking directly on the link, download it and expand the binary to your hard drive in a new directory.
The installation of Apache Geronimo is as simple as uncompressing the .zip or .tar files. From a command line window change directory to <geronimo_home>/bin and start the server using the following command:
geronimo run
For your convenience, Apache Geronimo provides a series of scripts to manage the server and applications, visit the Tools and commands section for further details.
You can also build a server from source code using either maven or eclipse. Look into Building Geronimo from source for the details.

News and Information about Financial Education from the FDIC
In This Issue
Message from the FDIC
Congress has designated April as Financial Literacy Month in the United States as a way to call attention to the crucial importance of financial education. The FDIC welcomes Financial Literacy Month as an opportunity to remind families and communities that we do much more than insure deposits - we also have a strong commitment to financial education and economic inclusion, directly through FDIC products and services or indirectly though partnerships with financial institutions, private non-profit organizations and other government agencies. This issue of our quarterly Money Smart News highlights some of the financial education work being done by the FDIC, especially on behalf of the unbanked or underbanked.
Here you'll read, for example, how the FDIC and our fellow regulators are addressing problems in subprime mortgage lending, some of which involves giving borrowers the information they need to make good decisions on loans. You'll learn about the new FDIC Advisory Committee on Economic Inclusion, which consists of distinguished leaders and innovators who will be offering recommendations on helping underserved populations enter the financial mainstream and build wealth. We also feature two new success stories from our Money Smart program, both of which touch on the importance of opening the lines of communication between financial institution staff and unbanked or underbanked consumers as a way to help break down psychological barriers to using mainstream financial services.
Also get to know more about FDIC Chairman Sheila C. Bair. Start by reading her March 2 speech that offers her views on financial education and her personal involvement in this field. I think you'll be especially interested in her memories of writing for children on financial matters and how, while a Professor at the University of Massachusetts, she spent her Wednesday mornings counting coins and filling out deposit slips as a volunteer coordinator of the school banking program at her children's elementary school.
As always, we also encourage you to get to know your
FDIC Regional Community Affairs Officer. The FDIC wants you to consider our regional staff among your most trusted resources for help or information on Money Smart or anything else that can promote financial education in your community.

FDIC Chairman Speaks About Key Issues in Financial Education
In a March 2 speech in Cleveland, FDIC Chairman Sheila C. Bair discussed the importance of promoting personal savings on a national level and making the financial system "work better for low- and middle-income Americans." Her speech included insights into the special roles that schools, parents and banks can play in teaching children about savings habits.(Read more.)
Regulators Addressing Problems in Subprime Mortgage Lending
The news media has been featuring reports recently on trouble in the subprime lending market and the rising default rates on mortgages. In a recent development, the FDIC and other federal bank regulators have proposed for public comment a statement on issues relating to subprime mortgage lending, including concerns about borrowers not completely understanding the risks of certain adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) products, in part because lenders do not always explain them. The proposed statement reinforces the concept that financial education can help consumers make smarter decisions in the financial marketplace, particularly if they learn to ask questions about important product terms. Comments are due by May 7, 2007. (Read more about the proposed statement and the request for comment.) Financial educators also can learn more about the problems consumers have faced in the subprime lending market by reading FDIC congressional testimony given March 22 and
27 and
April 17.
FDIC Advisory Council on Economic Inclusion Is Formed, Holds First Meeting
The FDIC Advisory Committee on Economic Inclusion, which was established by the agency in November 2006 to provide recommendations on expanding access to banking services to underserved populations, held its first meeting on March 28. The main focus of the meeting was the availability of affordable small-dollar loan products. The Advisory Committee consists of 18 distinguished leaders from the public, private, and non-profit sectors.(

Latest FDIC Consumer News Is a Special Issue Featuring Simple Strategies for Managing Money
The Winter 2006-2007 issue of FDIC Consumer News is a special edition featuring simple, practical suggestions for dealing successfully with some of today's important money matters. The FDIC is encouraging financial institutions, financial educators and other interested parties to make the information in this how-to guide widely available, including reprinting or linking to the material and making copies with their name, logo, a special message and/or self-mailing information. Financial educators also are reminded that FDIC Consumer News is a resource for useful information on topics for consumers. Current and back issues are online. Educators and their students also can sign up for a free subscription. (See the latest newsletter and subscription information.)
Treasury Department Data Highlight Need for Consumer Education About Direct Deposit
The U.S. Treasury Department, as part of its "Go Direct" campaign with the Federal Reserve Banks that is intended to encourage recipients of Social Security and other federal benefits to use direct deposit, has issued some new data of interest to financial educators. The Treasury on February 27 released a survey showing large numbers of consumers mistakenly believe that paper checks are safer than direct deposit when, in fact, paper checks account for more than 90 percent of the reported payment problems, including fraudulent endorsements.
(Read more.) In addition, the same survey showed that as America's baby boomers start counting down to retirement they are becoming more financial savvy in paying bills online and banking but are less likely to use direct deposit for their Social Security benefit payments, opting instead to get paid with paper checks.
(Read more.) The FDIC, which is a partner in the Go Direct campaign, recommends the use of direct deposit in its Money Smart financial education curriculum.
20-Agency Federal Financial Education Web Site Adds Links to Education Grants
MyMoney.gov, the federal government's one-stop source for financial education resources, has been updated recently to include links to information about grant programs for financial education. The U.S. Financial Literacy and Education Commission's Web site also includes new links to resources about the financial aspects of responding to life events. The FDIC is a member of the Commission.

'Ace of Cakes' Duff Goldman coming to campus Sept. 2
America's best-known cake master, Duff Goldman, is coming to the University of South Carolina Wednesday, Sept. 2, to address students, attend an undergraduate culinary class and judge – What else? – a cake-decorating contest.
The owner of Charm City Cakes in Baltimore, Md., Goldman is host of Food Network's "Ace of Cakes," a show as popular for his personality and style as it is for his masterful cake creations. His visit to the university is sponsored by Carolina Productions; the hotel, restaurant and tourism management program and McCutchen House.
Goldman will address students, faculty and staff at 8 p.m. in the Russell House University Union Ballroom. The event is free, but university ID is required. A capacity crowd is expected, so early arrival is encouraged.
Leading up to the evening talk will be the cake contest, featuring 20 student teams and held in the lobby of Russell House University Union from 9 a.m. – 7 p.m. McCutchen House Chef Kelly Wilson will oversee the contest, which Goldman will judge.
Students must register their team by Friday, Aug. 28. To register, contact Becky Moody at 803-777-8225.
While on campus, Goldman also will attend a food-production class at McCutchen House and answer questions from more than 80 students in the hotel, restaurant and tourism management program.
Goldman, known for his trademark baseball cap and goatee, uses blowtorches, chain saws and other power tools to create masterpieces with his staff, all artists and fellow rock musicians. He is one of the most sought-after cake masters in the country, with his creations ranging from $6 to $20,000 a slice.
His creativity, which he says was nurtured by spraying graffiti on trains in his youth, also is evident in his art as a sculptor and as a musician; he plays bass in an indie instrumental band.
Goldman grew up in McLean, Va., and Cape Cod and earned degrees from the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, and the Culinary Institute of America in Napa Valley, Calif.
For more information on Goldman's visit to the University of South Carolina, contact Carolina Productions at 803-777-7130.

Meshes often require specification of a large amount of data for e.g. mesh positions, texture coordinates or triangle indices. Crystal Space has a general format for storing such bulk data, giving a unified syntax for different types of mesh objects allowing storing both in an XML-based format or a compact binary format.
The top element has no fixed name; rather, it differs from mesh object to mesh object. However, all top buffer elements have a common set of attributes.
Specifies a file name for an external file with the buffer data in a binary representation (see below). If set, all other attributes are ignored.
Required: attribute identifying the type of the contained data in memory. Possible values: 'int' (or short 'i') - signed 32 bit integer, 'uint' ('ui') - unsigned 32 bit integer, 'byte' ('b') - signed 8 bit integer, 'ubyte' ('ub') - unsigned 8 bit integer, 'short' ('s') - signed 16 bit integer, 'ushort' ('us') - unsigned 16 bit integer, 'float' ('f') - 32 bit IEEE 754 floating point value, 'double' ('d') - 64 bit IEEE 754 floating point value.
Required: number of components per element in the buffer.
Optional: specifies whether the buffer contains normalized data in case of (unsigned) integer data. Normalized means the values are normnalized to floats in the range of [0;1] (unsigned values) resp. [-1;1] (signed values) when used. Unnormalized data is not changed.
Optional: specifies whether the buffer is an index buffer. Index buffers are handled differently internally and thus must be designated as such. They have the restriction that they can have at most one component, can not contain float data and can not be normalized.
Note that some meshes may specify additional attributes in buffer elements.
Each element in the buffer is specified as an XML element under the top element, with the individual components being specified in element attributes.
The XML elements have the name 'element' or short 'e'.
The attribute names for the individual components are 'c0' for the first component, 'c1' for the second component and so on.
Overall, a binary buffer file contains a header with information about the structure of the file (essentially what you would specify in the top element attributes in the XML format) followed by the raw buffer data. Index and general buffers have a similar but slightly different format. All values are stored in little endian byte order.
uint16 magic
Magic word identifying a file as a general buffer file. Must be
uint8 componentType
The type of components stored in the buffer. The values are the same as in the
csRenderBufferComponentType enum.
uint8 componentCount
Number of components in per element in the buffer.
uint32 elementCount
Number of elements in the buffer.

Number of components in per element in the buffer. Must be 1.
uint32 elementCount
Number of elements in the buffer.
uint32 rangeStart
Value of the smallest element in the buffer.

In addition, the proposal addresses the issue of human trafficking and drug cartels as a means for immigrants to enter the country by creating a humane and effective entry system. Employers would be allowed to hire immigrants when Americans are unavailable for a job and a workable program to meet the needs of America's agriculture community, including dairy would be developed. The proposal would allow successful permit workers to earn a green card while calling for strong labor protections as well. An employment verification system would be established and employers would be held accountable for knowingly hiring undocumented works.
The Agriculture Workforce Coalition, which works to ensure that America's farmers, ranchers and growers have access to a stable and secure workforce, responded with a statement of cautious optimism. The Obama Administration has also releasee its proposal for immigration reform.

Hey everyone,
I'm a bit new to the use of John the Ripper so please bear with me.
Currently I'm working with wordlist mangling for a class. What I need now is a rule that allows for only some of a single character to be switched.
For example, if I'm using a simple switch rule like this:
it would give me: google, g00gle, etc.
But I need it to also be able to give go0gle, g0ogle, etc.
Is there any rules that can help perform this? Thanks in advance.

SEATTLE - There is no roof above CenturyLink Field, so USC coach Lane Kiffin instead built a shell to enclose the Trojans' offense Saturday night.
Kiffin locked up star quarterback Matt Barkley along with heralded wide receivers Marqise Lee and Robert Woods by passing only 20 times against struggling Washington.
Fortunately for the No. 11 Trojans, the defense once again made a crucial play to render any questionable game plan meaningless as USC defeated Washington 24-14 in front of 66,202, the largest crowd to watch a Huskies game at its temporary home.
USC safety Jawanza Starling, who has a knack for big plays, saved the game by stripping the ball from Washington quarterback Keith Price (St. John Bosco) around the 5-yard line and then had the composure to come back and recover the ball at the 4 after it squirted past several Trojans.
"It took the life right out of the crowd," Starling said.
USC led 24-14 at the time and that play put the game away. It also created a post-game scene full of questions over why a supposedly explosive offense was shackled by its head coach.
Kiffin elected to run the ball on third-and-17, third-and-13 and third-and-10 plays. USC was only 2 for 12 on third-down conversions.
One would think freshman Max Wittek was playing quarterback instead of preseason Heisman Trophy frontrunner Barkley.
"In the air today, we did terrible obviously," said Woods, a former Serra High standout. "It's just not happening right now."
And how was it in the huddle when those running plays were sent in on third-and-long?
"Especially as a receiver you want to attack," Woods said. "When you hear run, you want to block."
Barkley put on his game face when he faced the media.
It was unlikely he returned for his senior year to play not to lose.
"Obviously, people are going to focus on (the stats)," he said. "I'm not going to focus on that. We're not going to focus on that.
"I wouldn't say it's frustrating, I want to pass, but I'm happy with the win."
Barkley and Woods struggling is not unheard of, but Lee (also Serra High) getting silenced is another matter. The sophomore caught only two passes, which snapped a streak of nine consecutive games in which he caught at least eight passes.
"I don't fault Kiffin at all," Lee said. "I have no problems without any catches if we're winning. They played great defense."
Washington (3-3, 1-2) did not play that great, though. The real question might be about adjustments. USC has been shut out in two second halves (Stanford, Washington) and has failed to score in the third quarter on one other occasion.
"We said it all along, this isn't about anybody's numbers or Heisman, it's about winning games and we did the best thing and that was to win today," Kiffin said.
There was speculation Barkley got hurt late in the first half on a sack, and that caused Kiffin to play conservatively.
"No, he's fine," Kiffin said. "I wanted to sit here at 5-1 (overall) and not 4-2. In those (third-down) situations, why go back and get him hit again? The last thing I wanted was for him to go back and get him.
"Are the numbers what we would like? No."
Kiffin apparently was slightly peeved at the questioning because as he left his news conference he asked a reporter, "Do you think we lost?"
The last time he did that was when Barkley struggled after a victory over California last season.
Kiffin adopted an NFL game plan for an NFL stadium. Avoid turnovers. Don't take risks.
But it almost backfired when Washington cut the lead to 24-14 on Price's 29-yard pass to tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins in the third quarter. This normally might be a time for the offense to answer right back like during the Reggie Bush-Matt Leinart era.
Instead, no one offers answers for why the Trojans have one of the worst third-down conversion rates in the country. Center Khaled Holmes is healthy again, so the Stanford excuse no longer is valid.
At least the running game is working. Tailback Silas Redd gained 155 yards and scored a touchdown as USC rushed for 204 yards. The nation's most-explosive offense might be a dud, but Tailback U. is making a comeback.
"We are not satisfied but we are in a nice position right now," Redd said.

Brevard, N.C. – The Brevard College volleyball team had a tough task on Saturday night, as the Tornados took on South Atlantic Conference leader Wingate in conference play, only one night after picking up a five set match win on the road last night at Mars Hill.
The Tornados stayed in ever set of the match but just couldn't come away with a win, falling 25-22, 25-17 and 25-19. The loss drops the Tornados to 10-12 overall and 2-9 in the conference, while Wingate, who is ranked No. 1 in the region, moves to 20-1 overall and 9-0 in the SAC with the win.
In the first set, the Tornados jumped out to an early 10-7 lead on a kill by BC junior outside hitter Chelsey Trojan. However, the Bulldogs battled back to tie the score up at 11-11 on Maggie Malone service ace, forcing the Tornados to call a timeout to stop the run.
Out of the timeout the Tornados were able to knot the score up on four different occasions (12-12, 13-13, 15-15 and 17-17) before Wingate pulled away late in the set, pushing the lead to as high as four points before winning the set 25-22 on a kill by Heather Myklebust.
In the second set, the Bulldogs ran ahead of the Tornados big, going on a 6-0 run to open up the set and take an early lead. A kill by BC freshman setter Kari Sims, stopped the run, put the Tornados on the board and started the Tornados offense that stormed back to cute the Wingate lead to two at 11-9 on a kill by Trojan.
Yet the Bulldogs refused to relinquish the lead, pulling away after a BC timeout, outscoring the Tornados 13-8 for the remainder of the set to pick up the 25-17 win and take a 2-0 advantage in the match.
Set three saw the Tornados take an early 1-0 lead, only to have Wingate score the next four points and hold on to the lead for the remainder of the match. The Bulldogs pushed their lead to as high as eight in the set at 18-10, but couldn't pull away from the Tornados, winning the set 25-19 and the match 3-0.
The Tornados were led by Trojan, who had eight kills and 10 digs for the match, while freshman outside hitter Chelsea Larsen posted seven kills on the night. Junior middle hitter Brooke Seaman had five kills and five block assists, while libero Rebecca Schoonover had a match-high 13 digs.
The freshmen duo of Sims, who got the first start of her career on Saturday night, and Lindsey Rogers combined to dish out 25 sets assists for the match, as the two filled in admirably in the absence of injured senior setter and captain Jami Perry.
Wingate was led by Lauren Billo and Stormi Gale, as both posted nine kills for the match. Outside hitter Rebecca Bloemer added seven kills of her own, while setter Liz Willis had a match-high 32 assists over the three sets.
The Tornados will step out of SAC play in their next match, as Coach Skeffington's squad will travel to Tigerville, S.C. on Tuesday, October 21, to face off with the Lady Crusaders of North Greenville University. That match is slated for a 7 p.m. start time. Wingate will play again on Tuesday night as well, as the Bulldogs will play at Catawba at 7 p.m.

LONG BEACH - Though the Westside is often stereotyped as rife with gang problems and violence, residents throughout the area insist it is largely a peaceful and prosperous part of town.
But they will also readily tell you it suffers from some key problem areas.
Take Phebien Maternal, a married mother of three who works at St. Mary Medical Center.
The registered nurse and her family are firmly invested in their community, despite her husband nearly being shot in the parking lot of the local Villa Market and Liquor store two years ago.
"He was sitting in the car and a bullet passed right over," she said, gesturing with her hand at her head. "It's scary, but you can't let that get to you."
Maternal said she pays close attention to what's going on in her neighborhood and at her kids' school, where she makes sure her children walk into class every morning, rather than just dropping them off at the gate, and she picks them up every afternoon. She can tell you where every registered sex offender lives in the area and hears about most violent crime trends in her job at the hospital.
She's also been pushing for the school district to require adults and visitors to campuses to have to scan IDs before gaining access to children.
Several other parents waiting for their children outside Muir Elementary along with Maternal echoed similar concerns.
"I just see too much going on, so I'm very careful," she said. "And I'll call the police if I see something (wrong). I have no problem with that."

Ratings for Dr. Karen H. Donley
I think Karen is an excellent choice for a physician! She spends time talking to you, because she cares and really desires to help you with the root cause of your health issues. More than once I have walked out with a book at her recommendation that she felt had pertinent information I needed to improve my health, for free! She doesn't just write you a prescription all the time if she knows that will just put a bandaid on something that in the long run requires a life style change. And her staff is wonderful! I feel like I'm treated like a friend when I visit their office, What a refreshing change!
I saw Dr. Donelly when I first moved to the desert from San Diego several years ago and liked her although there seemed a certain distance I could not pinpoint. I stopped seeing her when one day I had an argument with a person who billed me improperly and then became very rude rather than admit his error and apologize. As I recall it turned out that was her husband! At one point I said that perhaps I should never return and he agreed that I should never return and I did not. He was a horrid man and I wonder if he is still there. Frankly, the chasm between her evident refinement and his course manner I found baffling.
I didn't even get to see the doctor due to the very unprofessional and unfriendly receptionist. I will never return. Finding another doctor, I'm glad there are plenty in this valley.
I have been going to Dr. Donley for a little more than a year. She spends all the time you need and I never feel rushed. I also find that the waiting time is generally around 15 minutes. I've never had a problem with her billing policy. Her front desk person is always patient and kind whenever I have a question or need further information - whether in person or on the telephone. I was very pleased with an in-office procedure she performed. I intend to keep seeing her.
Karen Donley is an excellent OBGYN. She is caring and very intelligent. I especially love the facility there in Indian Wells, it's aesthetically pleasing. As for the nurses, or assistants, I won't mention any names, but I think they lack a certain level of professionalism that I've seen in other places. I hope to be proven wrong, otherwise, I won't go back there.
I have been going to Dr. Donley for about 6 years now. I find her to be an intelligent, caring physician who sets aside ample time for our appointment and listens to the patient. She is highly skilled and very thoughtful. I recommend her highly.
Dr Karen Donley has been my doctor for many years and my experience with her and her staff has been extremely favorable. Her office is the cleanest and most comfortable I've ever been in (and I'm 74 years old) so I've been in a lot of OB/GYN offices over the years.
I had origionally seen this doctor twice before and liked her--thought she was very competent. Unfortunately, the last time I went in for my annual preventative exam, I was required to sign a blank credit card slip to insure payment. When I protested I was told this was "normal!" Remember, I had seen her at least twice before. My co-payment for such exam was to be $35--instead I received the bill today and was charged $212! After calling my Blue Shield they said they would reprocess the account and I only owed $35--meanwhile, I must now go back to the Dr and try to get my refund. DO NOT GO TO THIS DOCTOR! This type of billing is disrespectful and dishonest! If they pull this when they overbill us--what do they do when real trouble happens!

'"If we can win out, I think we can feel decent about the effort we put in over the last two weeks," Miller said. "If we do end up missing the playoffs, it's not going to feel real good, but we've given ourselves a chance to compete in these last few games and that's the kind of character we need moving forward. If we make the playoffs, that's going to serve us well."'

SOUTHFIELD, Mich. – Virinder K. Moudgil will be inaugurated as the seventh president of Lawrence Technological University on Thursday, Sept. 27, at 4 p.m. The ceremony will be held at the Ridler Field House on the university's campus at 21000 West Ten Mile Road in Southfield.
Representatives from the community, professional organizations and dozens of colleges and universities will join faculty, students, staff and alumni for the ceremony and reception to follow. Both are free, and guests are asked to register in advance at www.ltu.edu/inauguration.
Guests may also register for the $50 inauguration dinner that begins at 7 p.m. There will be fireworks on the quadrangle at 9 p.m.
Inauguration ceremonies typically take place within the first year after a new president has taken office. Moudgil began his tenure as LTU's president and CEO on July 1.
Previously Moudgil was senior vice president and provost at Oakland University (OU), where he led academic affairs from 2001 to 2012. He was a professor of biological sciences and chaired OU's Department of Biological Sciences from 1994 to 2001. He joined the OU faculty in 1976.
Moudgil grew up in India as it transitioned to independence from British rule. He received his PhD in zoology-biochemistry from Banaras Hindu University, ranked the top university in India. He came to the United States in 1973 to take a post-doctoral fellowship at the Mayo Clinic. His mentor was David O. Toft, the discoverer of a protein that mediates the action of estrogen.
Even as he advanced in administration at OU, Moudgil remained an active researcher of the molecular mechanisms of steroid hormone action and the hormonal regulation of breast cancer. He received nearly $3 million in grant and research support awards from the National Institutes of Health and others.
Numerous postdoctoral, PhD and master's researchers at OU received their training in his laboratory. Having involved numerous undergraduate students in his research projects, he championed the Provost Undergraduate Research Scholar Program and led other efforts to offer research opportunities to as many students as possible.
Moudgil has also held an adjunct professorship at Wayne State University; was a visiting scientist at universities in Serbia, France, and India; and was a consultant to the United Nations Development Program. His research on steroid hormone action and cancer has resulted in wide recognition and more than 200 publications in scientific journals, edited books, book chapters, and scientific presentations.
He has presented invited lectures on international scientific platforms, and has chaired scientific sessions and symposia in the U.S., Czechoslovakia, Spain, the Netherlands, and India. He is the editor-in-chief of the series on the hormone in health and disease, and the organizer of the international Meadow Brook Conferences on Steroid Receptors in Health and Disease. He has served as a regular member of the NIH peer review study sections.
As OU provost, Moudgil oversaw six schools, the College of Arts and Sciences, the Honors College, and eight charter schools. His administrative responsibilities included the main library and 16 administrative units, including technology services, international studies, business incubators, e-learning, grants, contracts, and sponsored research.
He co-chaired the steering committee that established a partnership with Beaumont Health System to create the Oakland University William Beaumont School of Medicine, which enrolled its charter class in 2011. He played a key role in the affiliation agreement that brought a branch of the Thomas M. Cooley Law School to the OU campus.
Active in many professional and community organizations, Moudgil is a director of Automation Alley. He chaired the Academic Officers Committee (Provost Council) of the Presidents Council of the State Universities of Michigan from 2007–11.
Moudgil's many honors, include the Michigan Association of Governing Boards of State Universities' Award, Oakland University Foundation Research Excellence Award, the Marian P. Wilson Award, and the George Wibby Award.
His wife, Parviz Gandhi Moudgil, holds a doctoral degree in physiology. They have two adult children.

Tommy Hilfiger Fall 2012
"My womenswear is all about the sporting life," said Tommy Hilfiger backstage before his fall runway show inside the palatial Park Avenue Armory on Sunday night. "And the sporting life is all about town and country." That would be Greenwich, Connecticut, meets Park Avenue to be exact, circa mid-to-late sixties (or so the preshow tunes by Harry Nilsson and Simon & Garfunkel led us to believe). Before rows of noteworthy onlookers sitting pretty on wooden benches—Uma Thurman, Elisa Sednaoui and Mia Tyler among them—models in slick leather penny loafer–inspired riding boots emerged from behind a red brick wall creeping with ivy and elegantly tapped along a brick-paved path, which surrounded a makeshift tree-lined park.
The idyllic autumn setting served as a much-needed respite from reality (it has been far too cold to walk more than a block this week, let alone sit on a park bench between shows, as editors did here). And the clothing—legions of super-slim oxblood leather pants (reminiscent of jodhpurs with inner-knee patches color-blocked in navy), flocculent shearling peacoats and oversize patent leather double-breasted jackets—all fell effortlessly in step with a mood that has been playing out on New York's runways so far. As Hilfiger tells it: "There's an equestrian and military influence mixed with a rock 'n' roll edge."
But don't let that final reference throw you. Yes, there were motorcycle jackets, but they were referentially diluted with plaid mohair and patch-pocketed leather skirts. Indeed, this was a collection where Hilfiger's preppy distinctions were thoroughly intact and, as was often the case, given a new lease on life: Houndstooth prints graced blazers and super-slim pants, trench coats were rendered in bonded leather, and Glen Plaids turned cocktail-wards with their graphic windowpane patterns rendered in shimmering pewter embroidery on silk dresses. It was sometimes the case, with the head-to-toe leather looks, that things turned a little austere. But that was nothing the delightfully literal equestrian helmets, complete with under-chin straps, couldn't reverse. (Take note: this is set to overtake the fedora on sidewalks and street-style blogs come fall). Indeed, the charming headwear—for which Hilfiger had enlisted the millinery expertise of Albertus Swanepoel—lifted the mood and had many an editor dreaming, if not of weekend country hunts, then certainly of how best to wear it with her impending fall wardrobe.

As a lot of you know Badkarma has written a wicket rouge AP with Karma functionality that uses ettercap for packet capture and manipulation. It is not only vary well written but made for BT4. Seems all his apps are for BT4 now...
The P C 60 seem to work fine etc. I have tried more or less every softAP out there, but they all seem to suffer from one detail. They are slow. I am not to sure if fragmentation is the whole story. Has ANYBODY had a rougeAP working that runs really well? If so what wifi card/s are you using?

Brevard, N.C. – The Tornados will wrap up their 2008 season on Saturday afternoon, when BC will welcome Newberry College to town for a 2 p.m. showdown. The Tornados will honor their seniors - Elliott Collins, Joshua Durm, Justin Jefferson, Luke Lovelace, Zac McAlister, John Taylor and John Wernquist - prior to the 2 p.m. kick-off.
This season the Tornados have improved week in and week out - on both sides of the ball. Last week in their 24-10 loss, the Tornados had 202 offensive yards, 14 first downs and only one penalty while holding Catawba to 266 total yards, with only 30 yards coming by way of the passing game, and 14 first downs.
Senior running back John Taylor, who will be playing his last game in a Brevard uniform, will look to go out on top with a big game in his career finale. Taylor, who did not play last week, still leads the team with 383 rushing yards and four touchdowns on the season.
Sophomore quarterback Trey Wilborn has made great strides in running the BC triple option offense over the past few weeks. Wilborn is second on the team with 283 yards on 52 carries and one touchdown. Junior fullback Desmond Wilson and slot backs Matthew Gaines and Donald Hudson will continue to carry the ball in the triple option attack, looking to make plays with their legs throughout the game.
Defensively, a number of freshmen are making a name for themselves as newcomers Michael Gist, Chase Waldo and Salonik Amos are making plays for Defensive Coordinator Scott Brumett. Gist is fourth on the team with 50 total tackles, but leads the team with two interceptions. Waldo is proving to be a shut down cornerback as he has 37 tackles, one interception and two pass break ups since moving into the starting lineup in week three. Last week, Amos had a team-high 10 tackles and an interception against the Indians of Catawba.
Junior linebacker Stanley Jones is still leading the SAC in tackles per game with an average of 9.8 per game. Jones is 12 tackles away from reaching 100 on the season and will look to be all over the field on Saturday afternoon against Newberry.
Newberry started off the season with a loss to then No. 1 nationally ranked Valdosta State 14-9, but have responded with five wins out of their last eight games including wins over then No. 11 Carson-Newman, No. 20 Catawba and No. 15 Wingate University.
On the season, Newberry has outscored their opponents 229-183 and have outgained their opponents 3,201 yards to 3,054 yards.
Newberry has a tandem of quarterbacks in Eric McCollom and Brandon Gantt who have seen a considerable amount of action in 2008. McCollum leads the team in passing yards with 987 and touchdowns with eight, completing 69-of-120 of his pass attempts with eight interceptions. Gantt has thrown for 423 yards and two scores on the season in six games, but is more apt to run as he as rushed 35 times for 160 yards, both of which is third on the team.
The Newberry running game is highlighted by running backs Tharry Salley and Gerald Legree. Salley, who did not play last week due to an injury, leads the team with 458 rushing yards on 94 attempts and two touchdowns. Legree has rushed the ball 78 times for 423 yards and three scores, an average of 5.4 yards per carry. Out of the 14 rushing touchdowns by the Newberry offense this season, eight different players have reached the end zone.
Wide receivers Kelton Tindal and David Pressley will look to make plays down the field, as the two have combined for 68 catches, 1,141 yards and 10 touchdowns on the season. Tindal is averaging 79.3 receiving yards per game and could cause match up problems for the BC secondary.
Newberry's defense is solid, as they are third in the SAC in total defense, allowing only 3,054 yards over their first nine games. Newberry's defense gets off the field quick, as they are second in allowing only 146 first downs on the season, an average of only 16 per game.
Senior linebacker Will Newell leads Newberry with 81 total tackles. The three time SAC Defensive Player of the Week also has two sacks and one interception on the year. Outside linebacker Devon Smalls is second on the team with 52 stops, while safety R.J. Reeder has 43 tackles on the year.
The Tornados have played Newberry College every year since their re-establishment in 2006, with the same outcomes. Newberry has defeated the Tornados twice with both wins coming in Newberry, S.C. This will be the first match up between the two teams at Brevard Memorial Stadium in Brevard, N.C.
The kickoff time is slated for 2 p.m. at Brevard Memorial Stadium in Brevard, N.C. The shuttle buses begin running at 12 p.m. and the gates will open at that time as well, two hours prior to the opening kickoff.
You can catch the game via live broadcast brought to you by the "Voice of the Tornados" Rob Walden over the radio at WSQL 1240 AM or over the Internet at www.wsqlradio.com. You may also visit the Brevard College Athletics website at www.BCTornados.com.

Their little metal toys have engrossed children at play and obsessed adult collectors. Now Matchbox, masters of the die-cast model car, is celebrating its 60th birthday.
To commemorate the anniversary, the London-born company has released a new collection of 24 vehicles and a series of images spanning its history.
The first model was designed in 1952 by self-trained engineer Jack Odell for his daughter to take to school. As it only allowed children to bring in toys that could fit inside a matchbox, he crafted a scaled-down steamroller that did. His daughter's classmates were soon clamouring for their own "'matchbox car".
Odell and partners Leslie and Rodney Smith formed Lesney products and set up in a former pub, The Rifleman in Edmonton, north London. In 1953 the first series of models was produced for sale. Their first major sales success was the million-selling Queen Elizabeth II Coronation Coach.
Since then more than three billion Matchbox miniature die-cast vehicles have been produced
The biggest seller is the Model A Ford miniature scale, and the most expensive a 50th-anniversary Seagrave Meanstick, made of 18-carat gold encrusted with 24 rubies, four golden sapphires and six diamonds. It sold for £17,500.
Mr Odell retired in 1973 but returned in 1981 when Lesney ran into financial problems. The company was declared insolvent in 1982 and sold to Universal Toys. It was later taken over by Tyco and is now owned by American giant Mattel. Mr Odell died in 2007 at the age of 87.Reuse content

NAACP Delegates Vote to Repudiate Racist Elements Within the Tea Party
Posted on July 13, 2010
Today, NAACP delegates passed a resolution to condemn extremist elements within the Tea Party, calling on Tea Party leaders to repudiate those in their ranks who use racist language in their signs and speeches.
The resolution came after a year of high-profile media coverage of attendees of Tea Party marches using vile, antagonistic racial slurs & images. In March, respected members of the Congressional Black Caucus reported that racial epithets were hurled at them as they passed by a Washington, DC health care protest. Civil rights legend John Lewis was called the "n-word" in the incident while others in the crowd used ugly anti-gay slurs to describe Congressman Barney Frank, a long-time NAACP supporter and the nation's first openly gay member of Congress.
Missouri Representative Emmanuel Cleaver was spat on during the incident, and so it was particularly appropriate that the resolution was passed as NAACP delegates gathered in Kansas City for our 101st Annual Convention.
The proposed resolution had generated controversy on conservative blogs, where in some cases the language has been misconstrued to imply that the NAACP was condemning the entire Tea Party movement itself as racist.
The resolution will not become official NAACP policy until approved by the National Board of Directors in October.

GSA Selects Finalists for the Design of the New Census Bureau Headquartes Office Complex - Five Architect/Engineer (A/E) Firms Selected for Stage Two-Design Excellence
July 30, 2001
Contact: Michael McGill (202) 205-5821
Washington, D.C. - The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) announced today that five Architect/Engineer (A/E) design firms have been selected for interviews to provide concept design services for the new Census Bureau Headquarters office complex. The Maryland office complex will be located on the Suitland Federal Center at the intersection of Suitland and Silver Hill roads, Suitland.
GSA is using the Design Excellence procurement process. In the first stage interested design firms submitted examples of their work and identified the lead designer with his/her portfolio. From those submissions an A/E selection panel identified five firms to move onto the second interview phase. The selected design firms and their lead designers will now be invited to assemble complete A/E teams. From these interviews the GSA A/E selection panel will choose one firm.
The five A/E design firms selected to be interviewed in Stage Two are:
1. Ai - Washington, DC
2. Eric Owen Moss Architects, Culver City, CA
3. Kohn Pederson Fox Associates, New York, NY
4. Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, New York, NY
5. Studios Architecture - San Francisco, CA
The proposed facilities are two new office buildings of approximately 771,000 gross sq. ft. each, plus two new parking structures, totaling approximately 3,100 spaces. The estimated construction cost is approximately $306 million, with estimated construction duration of 36 months. GSA is anticipating expediting the completion of the project through the utilization of a Bridging Method, where the conceptual design services are completed by one of the five firms, then the final design and construction services are completed under a separate RFP solicitation.

Congenital heart defects are those that are present at birth. One in 100 babies born in the United States each year has a heart defect of some kind. As these babies become adults, they often need continued care for conditions corrected early in life. Sometimes, symptoms of congenital heart disease (such as abnormal heart rhythms, shortness of breath, dizziness, or swelling) may not appear and need care until later in life.
Learn more about congenital heart disease.
More and more, people born with congenital heart defects live long into adulthood. If you're part of this growing population, it's good to know the Adult Congenital Heart Disease Program (ACHD Program) offered by Children's Hospital of Wisconsin is one of the few in the nation and the largest program in the state. We are part of Herma Heart Center at Children's Hospital and work in conjunction with Froedtert & the Medical College of Wisconsin to offer the specialized expertise you need to live life to the fullest.
Our team of experts includes Michael Earing, MD, Peter Bartz, MD, Scott Cohen, MD, and Salil Ginde, MD — four of the few cardiologists nationwide and the only ones in the state formally trained to care for adults with congenital heart disease. Drs. Earing, Bartz, Cohen, and Ginde also see patients at Froedtert & the Medical College. Their advanced training in both pediatric and adult cardiology makes them exceptionally qualified to provide complete care as patients transition from adolescence to adulthood. The team has been awarded highly competitive research grants and published nearly 50 Adult Congenital Heart Disease articles in the last decade.
Our ACHD Program is also home to the only board-certified congenital heart disease surgeons in Wisconsin. Our patient volumes continue to increase as our reputation for quality care expands nationally.
In addition to Milwaukee, our adult congenital heart disease specialists have clinics in other locations throughout the state and in Upper Michigan. Patients can schedule initial assessments and follow-up care at these convenient locations. Evening appointments are available in some locations.
Many congenital heart disease conditions and genetic heart disorders can have serious cardiac and non-cardiac complications for adults, including:
These and other congenital heart defects can impact physical activity, pregnancy, and other aspects of life as an adult.
Through our partnership with Froedtert & The Medical College, we offer all the inpatient and outpatient services adults with congestive heart defects may need. This includes:
Our Marfan Syndrome Program is the largest in the state and recognized nationally for its expert care for adults with this rare genetic heart disorder.
The Wisconsin Adult Congenital Heart (WAtCH) program presents: Patient Educational Programs for adults with CHD. This patient educational program is designed to help patients with congenital heart disease and their family members deal with issues that matter to them. View dates and learn more here.

Intel will introduce a 3D transistor design called Tri-Gate, first disclosed by Intel in 2002, into high-volume manufacturing at the 22nm node in an Intel chip codenamed Ivy Bridge.
The three-dimensional Tri-Gate transistors represent a fundamental departure from the two-dimensional planar transistor structure that has powered not only all computers, mobile phones and consumer electronics to-date, but also the electronic controls within cars, spacecraft, household appliances, medical devices and virtually thousands of other everyday devices for decades.
Scientists have long recognized the benefits of a 3D structure for sustaining the pace of Moore's Law as device dimensions become so small that physical laws become barriers to advancement, Intel said. The key to today's breakthrough is Intel's ability to deploy its 3D Tri-Gate transistor design into high-volume manufacturing, ushering in the next era of Moore's Law.
