Kanye West's $1 million birthday present for Kim Kardashian
Kanye West
The rapper, who's been dating Kim for not even a year, is reportedly planning to take the reality star and a group of their friends to a private island called Pine Cay.
A source said: "Kim has been really down about turning 32 and having two failed marriages behind her and no children, so he wants to make this extra special.
"Plus it's her first birthday since they've been together as a couple."
Kanye, 35, has also apparently ordered Kim a Prada bag lined with a 'KK' print, a pink diamond bracelet and a Chanel dress.
The source added: "Kanye has never been shy of splashing out on the women he loves, but this time he's pulling out all the stops with presents."
These two are obviously rather smitten with each other.
It was recently revealed that 31-year-old Kim was keen to start a family with Kanye in the very near future.
She told Instyle UK: "In three years, I see myself moving into acting and designing and I'd like to start a family.
"In 10 years, I hope to still be designing and in 20 years I'll be happily living on a farm somewhere far away. I don't really mean a farm, I mean a huge luxurious villa in Tuscany."
Yikes! No pressure, Kanye.

Polynomial Equations (Equations of Higher Degree)
by M. Bourne
This chapter discusses methods for solving higher degree polynomial equations.
In the study of polynomial equations, the most important thing is to understand what "solution of an equation" means. For equations of higher degree, allow for many solutions. The maximum number of solutions you can get is the degree of the polynomial.
After you finish this chapter, you should be able to use a Computer Algebra System to find solutions, either...
Graphically, or
(b) Using the CAS directly.
Applications of Root Finding:
- modelling
- curve fitting
- instrumentation
- ecological and industrial safety
- industrial maintenance and control problems
Historical Solutions...
This section contains some dinosaur mathematics (that is, it is extinct). With software tools, there is no need to churn through pages of algebra solving these things. It is more important to know what it all means and how you can apply it to real problems.

According to reports, working to setting up commercial cooperation in renewable energy with developed and developing countries, the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) has firmed up international cooperation agreements with Germany and United States to establish "Green Energy Corridors" in the country.
Officials in the MNRE said the Ministry had been interacting with several developed and developing countries for cooperation in the renewable energy sector with a view to establish commercial cooperation for supplies of indigenously manufactured renewable energy products, systems and devices.
Under this major initiative, the German financial institution kfW has agreed to provide one billion euro loan. This is the follow up of the "Joint Declaration of Intent" between Germany and India on Indo-German Development Cooperation regarding the establishment of "green energy corridors" signed on April 11, 2013. The first line of the loan is expected to be delivered shortly.
In addition, under India-US Energy Dialogue, a memorandum of understanding (MoU) has been signed recently for promoting energy access through clean energy (PEACE). Under this initiative, Export-Import Bank of US intended to mobilise around $250 million EXIM Bank financing for clean energy access. Similarly, the European Union (EU) is helping Centre for Wind Energy Technology (C-WET), Chennai to estimate off-shore wind power potential and identify most suitable sites for establishment of off-shore wind farms in India. The Ministry has also established cooperation for initiating energy access in rural areas and promote access to clean energy in association with UNDP, World Bank and U.S..
Parliament's Standing Committee on Energy headed by senior Samajwadi Party leader, Mulayam Singh Yadav has recently recommended that international finances despite being project based or otherwise should be of such scale so as to give the desired thrust to the sector for its proper development otherwise these activities could be financed domestically as the projects do not have higher financial stakes and are beneficial to the common man.

Snooki: I'm Not Pregnant And Don't Call Me Fat
February 2, 2012 by staff
Snooki: I'm Not Pregnant And Don't Call Me Fat, Responding to a report in Star Magazine that was picked up by online websites that she was expecting, pint size Jersey shore star Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi took to the airwaves to say she is NOT pregnant.
On this morning's Opie & Anthony XM radio program, the hosts asked her about the report. She responded with a shocking tone "does that mean they're calling me fat? I just lost all this weight!" She went on to wonder if they thought there were photos of her with a belly. "Obviously they're calling me fat."
Snooki has been dieting and working out lately and was genuinely hurt that the magazine would claim she was pregnant when she's looking so fit these days. She said she is most definitely not with child and said she's been the victim of tabloid pregnancy reports several times in the past – all of which were false.

Miranda Kerr is ''inspired'' by her son Flynn, 17 months, and loves seeing how he changes every day.
Miranda Kerr is ''inspired'' by her son.
The 29-year-old model takes delight in seeing 17-month-old Flynn - her child with husband Orlando Bloom - grow and change every day and likes nothing better than getting to spend the day with the youngster.
She said: ''What's surprised me most is just how incredible the Bond is between you and your child. To watch him grow and evolve every day is really inspiring.
''[My perfect day is] to wake up to the sound of my son saying 'Mama, mama!' It's the best sound ever. Then I just love to get him out of bed and he can jump into bed with us, and we have cuddle time.''
And the Victoria's Secret beauty admits she and Orlando would love to have more kids.
Asked if she is planning to expand her family one day, she told the August issue of Britain's Harper's Bazaar magazine: ''I think probably, yes. Having a child is the most incredible experience.''
Despite her slender frame, Miranda insists she never worried about losing weight after giving birth as Flynn was her main priority.
She said: ''I didn't feel pressure to snap back into shape.
''My priority was just having my son and breastfeeding, which was something I really wanted to do, and it came easily. I'm actually still making milk now but, you know, he's got teeth...''

I have had so much fun exploring the character of Leela Kaz and really wanted to add some dimension and depth to her. So I've begun to create some short stories centered around Kaz's past hosts. My goal is to write one or two stories for each host to examine and explore the character further.

Acts of War
Juval Kaz- Seventh Host
Captain Juval Kaz sat in his ready room attached to the bridge of the
USS Excelsior
reviewing recent reports and slowly working on a cup of tea sitting on the desk. Thoughts about recent events weighed heavily on his mind. He tapped a few controls on his console and brought up his personal logs and selected a new entry. "Computer begin log..."
Captains log, supplemental. I just received a disturbing communiqué from Admiral Jacobs at Starfleet Command. He seems to believe that the Klingons are at it again in the Archanis Sector. The space stations along the Klingon boarder are picking up, what they believe to be, cloaked ships compromising Federation space. The Klingons... They violate our boarders and then sneak off. And then we shrug our shoulders and act like it didn't happen. Over the past several years relations with the Klingons have been strained, at best. The Khitomer Accords seem to be a piece of paper that they respect when it suits them. Admiral Jacobs wants us to take the Excelsior to the Archanis Sector as a show of force. Poke our heads around and see what we turn up. My first officer, Commander Marks, seem to think war is inevitable. I like to think there is another way. Decades of peace. These Humans have forgotten what war was like, but I haven't. I have seen war. I have seen the implications and I know it must be avoided. If the Klingons are going to pick today to start a war they'll have to find another Starfleet Captain. To paraphrase our friends to day is not a good day to die.
Juval took his last sip of tea. He stood up and made his way to the bridge. A young commander looked to Kaz as he approached the bridge. "Sir, we're approaching the Archanis Sector. Ive ordered us to disengage warp engines and establish a position off of
Starbase 217.
The commander had been a pleasant surprise. Commander Marks was very young, especially to Kaz, and prone to the occasional brash decision but that is to be expected. He was promoted to Commander with very little deep space experience. Marks had spent the bulk of his career at the academy training Starfleets best and brightest. Kaz had selected him personally because of his attitude, he was convinced he could mold the hound officer.
"Very well Commander, thank you." Kaz replied He looked to his communications officer. "Ensign Gutiérrez, let
Starbase 217
know we've arrived and will be taking over their investigation." The Captain took a seat in his chair as his operations officer began to speak. "Sir, I'm detecting distortions in the lower EM bands. Could be a cloaked ship." Ensign Sharp said. "Good work Lieutenant." Kaz said turning to commander Marks. "Commander you better take us to yellow alert. Lieutenant keep scanning lets see if we've gotten someone's attention."
The communications console began to beep indicating an incoming transmission. "Sir, someone's taken note of our presence. Ive got an incoming transmission." Gutiérrez said with a slight surprise hanging off her words. "From whom Ensign?" Kaz quickly replied. "I don't know sir. I can't triangulate the signal. Could be cloaked." Gutiérrez added. Captain Kaz stood up and pointed his body towards the viewscreen. "By all means, put it through.
A Klingon face appeared on the screen. A younger man standing on the bridge of what Kaz was able to identify as a Klingon Vor'Cha class battle cruiser.
Awfully heavy guns for a peaceful mission.
Kaz thought upon the view of the battlecruisers bridge. The Klingon began to speak. "Why does the Federation send a war ship to our boarders?" The Klingon demanded as a scowl appeared on his face. "Its Kaz, Captain Juval Kaz of the
USS Excelsior."
Kaz added as the Klingon began to interrupt him. "I do not care who you are. Federation takes a stance on our boarders. That could be construed as war." The Klingon injected into the exchange. "And you sending cloaked patrols into the Archanis Sector. That's a party invitation." Kaz had become noticeably angry by the Klingon's assertion that the Federation was trying start a war. The Klingon muttered something unintelligible under his breath. Kaz was certain that fit was some kind of insult involving his mother. "Excuse me... I'm sorry I didn't catch your name." Kaz said. "I am Captain HorChe of the Klingon battlecruiser Cha'Tro." The Klingon asserted. Kaz continued to speak. "Well Captain HorChe surely we can find a solution here....."
The Klingon Captain through his hand in the air in the direction of the
and uttered one word. "QUL!" Suddenly the lights of phased fire filled the viewscreen and Kaz quickly muttered out. "Red alert. Return Fire! Target their weapons systems and DO NOT. I repeat DO NOT destroy that vessel." Kaz yelled as he made his way back to his chair. The science console along the back wall of the bridge quickly exploded and began to spew flames onto the bridge Kaz was thrown to the floor as Commander Marks hit his comm badge. "Marks to sickbay. Casualties on the bridge." Marks exclaimed. Kaz picked himself up and yelled towards tactical. "Get those damned weapons offline. Now Commander!"
Lieutenant Commander Reese's hands quickly moved across the control panel. "Aye Captain, I'm increasing the yield." The
let off a shot targeting the ships phased arrays. The violent shaking that overwhelmed the ship quickly subsided. "Commander dispatch repair teams before they get those weapons back online." Kaz said pointing to Commander Marks. "Ensign, hail the damn Klingons again." Kaz shouted out.
The smoke filled bridge of the Klingon battlecruiser appeared on the the
viewscreen. "What are you waiting for Captain.
Today is a good day to die."
The Klingon proudly exclaimed as he sat on his bridge waiting for Captain Kaz to order a death blow. This was not Kaz's first encounter with the Klingons and he had developed a certain fineness when dealing with Klingons. "Oh shut up!" Kaz said. It probably wasn't the most appropriate thing to say but, after all, Kaz was angry. "No one is dying here today. But maybe next time." Kaz added with a slight chuckle. "Now, Captain, your ship sits defenseless. Your people must be made aware that we will protect these stations in Archanis." Kaz stood back up and moved toward the viewscreen. "The Federation will abide by the Khitomer Accords if the High Counsel does."
The Klingons cut off transmission and limped off without another word. Kaz turned to Marks and placed his hand on the Commander's shoulder. "That my friend is how you deal with Klingons." Captain Kaz smiled as Commander Marks began to speak. "Well Captain we may have averted war for another day but I still believe its inevitable." Sorrow filled Marks' face as he spoke those words and deep down Kaz knew he likely right.

Juval Kaz - Seventh Host
Personal log supplemental. Today I celebrate 20 years as the lead Federation ambassador to Vulcan. I have spent the last 20 years acting as a liaison between the Federation counsel and Vulcan High Command. It has been the most rewarding time of my life thus far. Who would of ever thought that this assignment; that I didn't even desire; would turn out to be the passion of my career. This hot desolate emotionless planet is my home. And I'm proud to refer to it as such. It seemed worth documenting. From the standpoint of my mission here all is well. Vulcan is a buzz of activity these days. New scientific breakthroughs seem to happen daily. From a diplomatic standpoint everything here is about the Klingons, just like everywhere else in the Federation.
"Computer, pause recording." The computer beeped acknowledging Kaz's request. He took a moment to reflect on the remainder of his entry and walked to get a cup of tea. He sat back in his chair and took a deep breathe. "Computer resume recording."
On a much more personal note. My dear friend Trebor, my diplomatic counterpart and the first person I met here, is ill. I'll be frank, that's how he likes it, he's dying. He has lived a long full life. Its time. But that doesn't make it hurt any less for me. He's slowly losing his hold on his emotions and its making him open up. He fell asleep last night crying in my arms about his long passed wife. The doctors say he's probably going to go sometime this week. He's asked to see me one last time. I'm about to head to the hospital and I have mixed emotions. My friend, My colleague wild is dying. I am happy though that I got to know Trebor. I am honored that he calls me friend.
Juval entered Trebor's hospital room. He sat up in his bed to greet Kaz. He was weak and appeared to be fragile. His mind was losing hold of emotions and he smiled when Kaz entered the room. This was only the third smile he had seen on the otherwise expressionless face in 20 years The first was the birth of his only grandchild.
Trebor raised his arm and motioned for Kaz to come over to his bed. As he approached the bed Trebor leaned in to his ear and whispered. "My friend, I have one last gift for you." Trebor grabbed Juvals temple. "My mind to your mind. My thoughts to your thoughts..."
Juvals head raced with images from 276 years of the Vulcan's life. As he traveled through the images in Trebor's mind the thoughts began to focus on the emotional regions of the Vulcan's brain. Trebor helped give Kaz an understanding of Vulcan emotions. He had tried to explain it so many times but the words fell short. Kaz was beginning to understand all of the anger, passion, love and a swath of other emotions that Trebor has carried for over two centuries. In that moment he learned that Vulcan's don't take themselves nearly as seriously as Kaz previously believed.
Following several minutes of this journey Trebor removed his hand and his head fell to the pillow. Juvals body gave out and he fell to the floor. As Trebor regained his composure Kaz caught his breathe and was able to stand. Trebor turned to Kaz and said. "Do you see now?" Kaz placed his hand on his friends forehead and said. "Yes my dear friend. I do. Conserve your energy."
Trebor reached up and grabbed Juval's free hand and squeezed. Then without another word his head slumped onto the pillow beneath it and the monitors in the room began to send alarms to the doctors. Juval stepped away as the doctors rushed in. He didn't wait. Juval already knew. His friend was gone. But Trebor did not leave Kaz empty handed. In mere moments Kaz had grasped a new understanding of the Vulcan mind and culture. An understanding that Kaz would carry forward to future hosts. He also imparted his two and a half centuries of Vulcan wisdom.

Preta Kaz - Sixth Host
Commander Kaz sat in her office on Utopia Panetta sipping tea as she prepared to get all of her thoughts out into her logs. It had been a very big day.
Commander's Log Supplemental.
My design team has gotten the green light for an ambitious new project. It came to me late last week. Imagine a ship bigger then an Excelsior Class cruiser with the fire power of a warship and the presence of a Flagship... My team has started calling it 'Project Ambassador.' They think this ship will help take step forward in diplomacy. After looking at my sketches I think the name may stick. Ambassador Class Starship... has a nice ring. The ship will be equipped with a full phased array and will be the first ship to include standard photon launchers. Needless to say, Starfleet Security loves me right now. The design process is expected to take six moths. We are taking several elements from the Excelsior Class vessels to speed up the design. We hope to begin construction in about 8 months and hopefully within 18 months we'll have a functioning prototype. The only thing that concerns me is the bridge... There isn't enough room. I guess they will just have to deal with a small bridge. Or we could take out the navigation system. Somehow I think they would just rather be cramped. On a much more personal note my poor husband, he's already bracing himself to not see me for 2 years. He knows how I throw myself into my work but he knows how important this is to both me and the Federation. Plus it feels like Jereda's dreams are coming full circle. Going from a warp one test ship to this cruiser. It oddly feels like I've come full circle. End Log.

Preta Kaz - Sixth Host
Preta sat in the Captain's Ready Room aboard the
reviewing some final details as she sips on a cup of tea. The time was 0200 and she was alone on the ship. Preta truly valued her late nights alone with the
It was when she felt the most connected to this project. The ship may have simply been a collection of metal and conduits but, to Preta, it felt like another child.
Ambassador Design Commander's Log, Supplemental.
Work continues to progress on schedule. The ship is, for the most part, fully operational. Engines are functioning. Weapons systems are online. Sickbay is equipped and online. Shields are functioning within established parameters. The only issue we seem to be having is with some of the bridge station displays but I'm certain we'll have a resolution by tomorrow afternoon. I'm excited to report that we will meet the maiden voyage date two weeks out. I know Captain Mitchell is excited. He's been onboard every day this week. I'm excited and saddened at the prospect of handing the Ambassador over to someone else. But I know he will take good care of her. On a personal note, my family will be thrilled. They have hardly laid eyes on me over the last 18 months. I have planned a surprise vacation for them following the maiden voyage.
[Jeffries Tube - Deck 2
Preta laid on her back taking some scans of the power distribution systems. She had always been very hands-on with the
After all, she had plunged everything into this vessel. This offspring of her imagination. As Preta took her scans she felt a sudden jolt from the ship.
What the hell!
Preta tapped her com badge. "Computer report."
A distinctive and familiar voice filled the area surrounding Preta. "Docking clamps have been dis-engaged."
"What the hell. How is that possible?" Preta murdered.
"Please re-state the question?" The computer added as if it was mocking Preta.
She ignored the computers voice and made her way towards the hatch. She had to ge tot the bottom of this right away.
This can't be good.
She thought. At the end of the tube she removed the hatch and began to step out.
"Don't move." An unfamiliar voice said from behind Preta as she stood still crouched. Then her worst fear is realized as she feels a phased forced into her back.
Preta slowly raises her hands to signify that they are empty. She pauses for several moments as she planned her next move. In one motion Preta grabbed the barrel of the phased from behind her back and pulled it towards her as she used her other hand to strike the assailant. He immediately fell to the floor. Preta stood over his body and couldn't believe what she saw....
She made her way around the corner to gain access to the internal sensors. She quickly took a scan to determine the threat level.
"24! 24 Romulans"
Preta stood for a second to let her situation sink in. She was alone. On a vessel, presumably at warp, with 24 Romulans who are presumably stealing her ship. She knew she had to take immediate action or the consequences would be dire.
If this ship falls into enemy hands...
Preta stopped. She didn't want to think about that prospect.
Alright Preta... its you and 24 Romulans.
She racked her brain trying to come up with a solution. Preta was exhausted from the long day and her day just became longer. She yawned. That was when an idea crossed her mind.
It occurred to her that she could use the environmental control system to release gasses into the air.
Preta makes her way to environmental control. Luckily, on a ship this size, 24 Romulans don't cover a lot of surface area. Once she made her way to environmental control she releases neuraziene gas through the ventilation system. Once the gas is released Preta is able to reroute the communication system and get a signal to the

caught up they were able to take control of the vessel and arrest the Romulans.
Two weeks later Captain Mitchell took the
on her shake-down cruise. It went off without any issues. The Romulan government formally denounced the theft. Starfleet never confirmed their suspicion but it is widely believed that the Talk'Shiar is responsible. After the maiden voyage Commander Kaz is promoted to Captain and placed in charge of Starship Design. Less than a year later Kaz is promoted again to Rear-Admiral and is named Director of Starship Design. She serves in that position until her death a couple of short years later.

Tears of the Fallen
Nantia Kaz - Fifth Host
Personal Log Supplemental. Ensign Kaz
Nantia took a seat at the desk in her quarters and, with tea in hand, began to record her first log.
So here I am. First day aboard the USS Constitution. I can't believe I'm here. Four years in the academy preceded by two years at the symbiosis commission has all come to this point. I was assigned to this vessel today as an engineering officer serving under Commander Whiting. He seems to be a well qualified chief engineer. I think I can learn a lot about being a Starfleet Engineer from him. I look forward to all he can teach me. I came aboard at Star base 105 and the ship wasted no time getting underway. We are making our way to the Archanis sector. During the briefing we were told to expect battle with the Klingons. All these people seem to care about is war. The Klingons must be stopped. I am not eager to go into battle though, it doesn't seem to suit me, but I'm sure my training will kick in. Should the time come. I'm on duty in an hour so I should begin to make my way down to Engineering. Computer, End Log.
Main Engineering
Nantia was on her back, under the power distribution console. Commander Whiting's feet appeared in her view. "Ensign, how's it going down there?" The Commander said with a certain anticipation in his voice.
"Sir, I'm currently trying to reroute power through the sub relays. I can't seem to get it up." Nantia said. The frustration in her voice was apparent.
"Ensign." Whiting slowly raised his voice. "We need to find a way to fix it. Without power distribution system properly working we could be left high and dry during a battle. Wouldn't it be terrible if we couldn't route power to the shields."
"Understood sir." Nantia took a deep breathe and continued her work. "But what I don't understand... I find the issue. Solve it. Then a new issue crops up. If I didn't know better I would say someone did this
At that moment a jolt ran across the engineering floor. The console Nantia was working on exploded along with several other stations throughout engineering. Smoke began to fill the space surrounding them. She noticed her Commanding Officer fall towards the ground. A voice then came over the communication systems.
=/\="Red Alert, all hands to battle stations."=/\= The voice of the Chief Security Officer quickly dropped from the airwaves as sirens took its place.
Whiting brought himself up to his feet and lurched to the nearby command station. "Damn it! Shields are down to 15%. What the hell did they throw at us. We need to get more power to the shields. Kaz get that power distribution system up."
Nantia scrambled for the tools that had fallen from her hands in the initial blow. "Sir I cant. Every time I transfer power the computer automatically re-routes it back. I think we were victims of sabotage." Another jolt hits and Nantia banged her head on the console. Blood poured from a gash and ran down her face onto her uniform. Nantia continued to try to transfer power to the shields and the Chief Security Officer's voice interrupted the alarms.
=/\=Intruder Alert, Deck 12. Intruder Alert Deck 12, Main Engineering.=/\=
What the hell.
Nantia thought as she swung herself from underneath the console. She was going to make an attempt at a weapon. As she appeared from under the console she bumped into a large pair of metal boots. Her eyes glanced up as a Bat'Leth crashing towards her face. As the weapon came down she was able to grab it and pull the Klingon to the floor. As the Klingon fell to the ground Nantia rolled onto her feet. She raised the weapon. Nantia was a small girl. She reached deep inside herself to pull everything she had. She dealt a mortal blow to the Klingon. She then heard a familiar sound as a transporter beam appeared in front of her. Before Nantia could even pick the weapon back up the Klingon officer pulled the triggeron his disruptor and dealt a mortal blow to the Trill.
Juval Kaz wrote, some years later...
Death... its an interesting sensation. No matter how many times you experience it, the myriad of ways one can die. You never grow accustomed to it. And that was certainly the case of Nantia. A young woman who died far too young. A young woman who wanted nothing more then to carry out a great legacy. I can still remember the images that flooded my mind. Her parents, past hosts. It all seemed to slow in that moment. Nantia is one of the few lucky ones though. She lives on, in a manner of speaking, she lives on within Kaz. As long as the symbiont thrives, so does she. As long as the symbiont remains Nantia's vision lives on.

Sins of the State
Heral Kaz - Fourth Host
[Capital City Hospital - Capital City, Trill Home-world]
Dr. Heral Kaz sat in the hospital waiting room. He had arrived from his private practice earlier in the afternoon with a patient experiencing a high grade fever. Kaz sipped a cup of tea and scribbled notes in her medical file as he waited for the Doctor to update him on her condition.
Medical File - Kritia Brenkt
The patient is currently on hour 29 of a high grade fever. She came into my private practice today with sweat pouring over her. I asked her why she hadn't sought medical attention earlier and she informed me that she had no way to pay for the services. I had to practically force her to come to the Hospital in Capital City. The patient is terrified of the potential bills that could be amassed from an extended stay. I am worried that her inability to pay may cause problems for the patient. She needs to be hospitalized but I fear the doctors will choose to discharge her.
A doctor emerged from the double swing doors of the hospitals emergency wing. "Dr. Kaz?" The doctor said scanning the room.
Kaz stood and motioned to the doctor. "How is our patient?"
A solemn look came over the young doctors face. "Dr Kaz." He began. "I am sorry to report that the fever has yet to come down. I'm going to give her some Mexotrithate to take home with her. I am hopeful that it will bring the fever down over the next 72 hours..."
Kaz motions to stop the Doctor mid sentence. "Wait! Send h er home. You can't send her home. She'll die doctor. A hospital must monitor the results of the medication."
The young emergency doctor wave his hand to stop him. "Kaz, you know that there is nothing I can do. She can't afford an extended hospital stay. Take her home. Check on her every 24 hours. Hopefully between the medication and her body she'll have a fighting chance."
"That's a lie and you know it!" Kaz couldn't hold his temper back any longer. "This is a particularly virulent strain and without constant care she'll be dead in those 72 hours."
The Trill doctor motioned to a nurse who rolled the patient to Kaz in a wheelchair. The nurse handed the medication to Kaz and the doctor and nurse disappeared throught the double swing doors.
Kaz took the patient home where she died from her fever 57 hours later. Heral's mind raced with anger, frustration and outrage at what he had seen. The state hospital would let this woman die before funding her care. It was on that day that Kaz's life-long mission became clear. He closed his private practice the following week and moved into the poorest areas of Trill. He practiced medicine for people that the state seemed to have abandoned. His goal was to help these people live and hold out. He sensed political and economic change coming quickly to Trill. These people would only have to hang on for a few more years.

The Price of Progress
Jereda Kaz- Third Host
"Jereda Kaz was an accomplished designer and engineer. He was a leading mind of his generation and a celebrated genius. He was also a shy and timid man. He always look awkward and out-of-place. A creature full of bad habits, a stutter and coping mechanisms to cloud his wide array of anxiety issues. By our current standards, he likely would have never passed the tests needed to become joined. He lived in an era where new discoveries were around every corner. Trill society was changing by the moment. And Jereda, sat, locked away in his lab in his private research facility biting his nails through his rise to scientific and engineering greatness. Over the generations he has grown to legend status among our people. For as accomplished as he was, he lacked the social skills of a child. It took him seven months to muster up the courage to ask his future wife out on a date. She was his rock, Naralia, a test pilot. The pair seemed odd together, but it worked for them. Naralia was vibrant and full of life. She was Jereda's public image. It was sad to see the pair separated so early. She was essential to his success and also kept his anxiety in check. She calmed him down when he needed it. So, was he a great man? Yes. But he was far from what the history books portray. He was a man with flaws. He was a man with more than his fair share of issues. But he was the man that shaped our future and the ramifications of his work are still felt to this day. He is, ultimately, the reason I can stand here today wearing this uniform."
-Preta Kaz
Speech given at a celebration honoring the 100th anniversary of the first successful warp flight. (part 1)
Two years before the first successful warp flight.
He stood at his station in the Command Centre for the test flight of the warp engine. Breaking the speed of light had been his mission for a decade and today was to be the day. The tips of his fingers were firmly lodged between his teeth. Over the course of several hours he had managed to bite off all of his remaining finger nails.
He had spent hours trying to talk Naralia out of taking the flight but, the truth was, she was the best test pilot on Trill. "Naralia to command, all systems are green and I am prepared for take off. Can you confirm?" She sat in the cockpit and pulled the cover of her helmet down over her eyes.
"Ack ... Acknowledged... P...p...please please await instruct...intructions." Jereda managed to force out as the trepidation of having his wife in that cockpit began to overwhelm him. He looked through his control panel one last time to confirm that the vessel was warp ready. With the pushing of a single button he reopened communications with the vessel. N...N...Naralia you a..are cleared... cleared for w...w...w...warp sp...speed. I... I... Love love you!. See see you in a f ... f ... few light yea... years." He closed his eyes and his head sank. Jereda slowly slid into the chair sitting directly behind him. There was nothing he could do now but wait and watch.
"I love you Jereda." Naralia flipped a switch and ran the final pre-ignition sequence. The engines began a quiet rumble that slowly escalated into a violent shake, she wasn't alarmed, it was exactly as planned. As acceleration began he monitored the readouts and reported back to the command Centre. "Stage 2 complete. All readings are within tolerance. Request final clearance to ignite stage 3." She calmly requested.
Jereda simply gave a single nod indicating that they were indeed ready to launch the final sequence and break the warp barrier. An unknown voice came through her helmet. "You are clear for stage 3." Jereda was too nervous to speak. He was all to aware of the price of failure.
With the final command. Naralia lifted the red cover and flipped the final switch. It was an awe inspiring sight. Stars that had just been stationary began to stream and various shades of white, blue and purple started to fly past the windows surrounding the cockpit. "Holy shit!" What else could she say. It had worked. She had crossed the threshold. She was going faster than the speed of light. For a single moment time, for all involved, stood still. The moment seemed endless. As her eyes were lost in the seemingly endless tunnel of warped light her complacency was interrupted by a warning alarm. "Damn!" She looked down to her console. "The antimatter, injectors! I thought we fixed that!" She reached down and attempted to abort the flight, to no avail. "They're fused! Shit!"
The back end of her vessel began to tilt upward and the vessel was suddenly sitting upright. As the ship started to tumble the integrity of the ships warp field began to de-stabilize. "Jereda!" She knew he couldn't hear her but somehow it comforted her to call for her love. In the final moments the warp field collapsed and the ship tumbled into normal space. Thrown end-over-end it move through space like a toy tossed into the air. The stresses were too much for the ship to bear and it was tore apart in the process. The flight ended in one final explosion. Leaving nothing behind into the space it had once occupied.
Jereda had watched his readouts in terror, knowing that there was nothing he could do to save his beloved. His head sank to his desk as crowd gathered around to comfort him. As his head hit the desk his arms wrapped around his head and hid his face from view. "She... She... She's g...g...g..gone." He whispered.
"The lost of his wife almost de-realized the entire project. She was his anchor, in an uncomfortable life. After months of grief, Jereda, found a new steam to get the project finished. This time he wasn't doing it for himself or for Trill. It was all for her. He spent two years completely redesigning the injectors. And was ultimately successful. But the really story of Jereda isn't a story of engineering or conquering the stars. But it's a story of the heart and of grief. You have to understand that to truly understand his drive and motivations. He may have been awkward, but to one person he was everything and he never forgot that. So let's commemorate that sacrifices that made all of this possible. In the spirit of Jereda, let us not forget, that one person really made this possible. The guilt of that loss weighs heavy and is still present often."

The instances I find for this is where a bunch of binaries are created from the same source; and upstream has been lazy enough to not create custom CFLAGS/LDFLAGS for each binary, just setting up a common build flag set for the whole package; in which case yes, some binaries are linked against stuff they do not require.

Dr. Wager helped me with an audit from the IRS. He guided me and help me gather all the required docs. He was great with putting my mind at ease and helping me though a difficult time.
Thank you
Posted by Rick
I hired Mr. Wager to review some post marriage family agreements. He went over every detail and pointed out aspects that I hadn't considered during the drawing of the agreements.
Despite the simplicity of the work, he gave it his full attention and provided a very thorough review of what the agreements entailed.
I have worked with lawyers in the past but Mr. Wager stood out with his commitment to the project at hand, timeliness of his work, and attention to detail.
I would highly recommend him to others seeking legal counsel and would certainly use him again in the future.

One visit is set up and others are in the works for offensive/defensive tackle Zach Anderson.
"Everything is about the same," said the 6-foot-6, 250-pounder. "I'm visiting Pittsburgh Jan. 14 and trying to set something up with Akron soon. I want to take a look at places and then make a decision."
Anderson is also interested in Purdue and Virginia. The Prospect Park (Pa.) Interboro talent said he doesn't have a strong favorite, but some things do stick out from the first school he has set up a visit with.
"Pittsburgh has a good business school and I think I could get good playing time pretty quickly," Anderson said.
Anderson also has another tie to Pitt. His older brother Bryan Anderson played for the Panthers before moving on the Chicago Bears.
Interboro just missed the playoffs with a 8-3 record, so Anderson can turn his full attention to recruiting.
"I'm still looking and seeing how things will play out," Anderson said.
Anderson is ranked as the No. 44 offensive tackle in the country and the 23rd best player in the state of Pennsylvania.

Issues being decided in the nation's courtrooms
ORANGE, Calif. - Of all the decisions that have confronted and confounded judges in the O.J. Simpson saga, this one may be the toughest:
What happens to Sydney and Justin, the Simpson children whose lives have been forever marked by two murders?
Sydney's 11 now. Justin's 8. For almost 2 1/2 years since their mother, Nicole Brown Simpson, was slashed to death outside her condo in 1994, the kids have lived with Nicole's parents.
But their father wants them back. So in Orange County family court, Simpson is battling Louis and Juditha Brown to regain custody.
The custody trial goes on even as Simpson defends himself against a wrongful-death civil suit brought by the Browns and the family of Nicole's friend Ron Goldman, who also was killed.
Formally, they are separate cases that must, by law, move forward independently. But it's still possible that Judge Nancy Wieben Stock will hold off on a ruling until the civil suit is decided.
As the custody fight moved into its second week Monday, there's no hint of what Stock might do.
The proceedings are closed, the records are sealed, and all sides are banned from talking publicly.
But analysts agree the burden of proof rests with the Browns. When a custody dispute involves a parent and a nonparent (which includes grandparents), the parent is heavily favored.
In this case, the Browns must prove that the children actually would be hurt if they went to live with Simpson.
Can they do it? Sorrell Trope, who has practiced family law for 48 years, rates the task as "almost impossible."
He says the Browns have only two chances. One is to argue that Simpson would be a negligent father. But Trope notes that Simpson has been seeing the kids on weekends.
The other legal course: Bring up the slayings. But Simpson was acquitted of murder in a criminal trial last year.
Southwestern University law professor Jean Bohl sees it differently.
"The judge absolutely can consider the circumstances of those murders," Bohl says. She also notes that Simpson was convicted for beating Nicole in 1989.
She says the Browns have acquired quasi-parental rights because they've had the children so long.
The judge may rule before the civil verdict is in. "I don't think the timing of this custody (trial) is an accident," says William Johnson, a San Francisco lawyer who handles family law cases. "It's really the perfect moment for O.J." because at this point, legally, Simpson is untarnished.
Whatever the outcome, either side could challenge the kids' custody after the wrongful-death case is through. "Custody is very much an ongoing thing. It's based on the principle we call 'changed circumstance,' " Johnson says.
Which means the struggle could go on and on. Analysts believe that whoever loses the civil suit will appeal, which could take another two years.
In the end, Sydney and Justin may settle this themselves. The older kids get, the more courts defer to their wishes. Some analysts believe the judge will even question one or both children this time around.
Under California law, the children can't take the stand in a custody case, but judges often call children into chambers for questioning.

US Family Business Survey 2017
How can family firms translate vision into long-term success? A strategy for the medium term.
For a family business like yours, values are the connective tissue — the source of your success, your commitment, and your legacy. They bring power to a business, helping to assure cohesion, resolve conflicts and strengthen resolve — through the natural act of passing on a legacy.
To help you put your values into action our advisors can:
For many family businesses responsible ownership comes naturally, so giving back yields substantial dividends — inside and outside your business. Family philanthropy is an excellent way to teach the next generation about financial stewardship and represents a positive, tangible spreading of your family's values into the world.
Our client was the senior shareholder of a family owned S Corporation. He wanted help in planning for large charitable commitments while simultaneously focusing on succession issues with his children, who ran the family business. He wanted to find a tax effective way to dilute his ownership interest in the business while increasing his children's ownership percentage; but he also wanted to create the liquidity needed to manage his charitable commitments.
Tax solutions that work for you
We looked at the problem from every conceivable angle and determined that a partial tax free liquidation of the S Corporation stock would provide a tax outcome that yielded more cash to the senior shareholder — and fund his charitable commitments. Our approach allowed him to make his contributions to charity in cash, reducing the senior shareholder's stock holdings while increasing his children's stock ownership percentage.
Members of a family business — senior and the next generation alike — had individual interests in philanthropy. However, while their involvement in philanthropic activities mirrored the family business' values, it was only to a limited extent and there were no common giving principles at work.
The importance of giving back
Recognizing the importance of "giving back", and the ways in which such activities truly strengthened the bonds between family members, the family council decided to create a more structured approach to the family's philanthropic efforts.
We helped the family council come to agreement on a common set of philanthropic goals and singled out which types of investments would best serve the needs of their charitable work. We also analyzed the members' existing philanthropic projects and integrated them into the new overall framework.
Making the investments work effectively
Finally, we offered advice on which structures we thought would ensure that their philanthropic investments would be controlled effectively and helped create a simple mechanism to regularly evaluate their investments.
How can family firms translate vision into long-term success? A strategy for the medium term.
Charitable structures and wealth-transfer strategies can complement each other, while benefiting society. This brochure looks at the pros and cons of many different options, including important tax implications.

Lauryn Hill; streaming here.
Neurotic Society (Compulsory Mix), the new single from Lauryn Hill, begins with a drum roll, and an announcement, and it's a doozy.
Against an unruffled backbeat and a twinkling synth cascade, the former Fugee issues a hip-hop harangue for the ages – an epic diatribe in three verses, with rapid-fire rant-rhymes about "living in a joke time, metaphorical coke time" and "contagious social gluttony, stages of mass malignancy."
Whoever asked Hill, "Yo, what up," got more than the small talk. Actually, it was the legend's new record label (Sony) that asked for the track.
Hill, in debt to the Internal Revenue Service, issued the "neurotic godless society" rap to iTunes and YouTube with a Tumblr missive that began bitterly, "Here is a link to a piece that I was 'required' to release immediately, by virtue of the impending legal deadline."

I have the option to reside in my parents home (both deceased) which is held in an irrevocable trust. The trust mandates I pay property taxes, maintenance, repairs, and utilities (there is no mortgage). The home won't transfer to me for 10 years. If the trust owns the property, but I pay all these costs, who gets the tax deductions/benefits? It seems the trust would, since it owns the home, not me.

Hello Scale Fans,
It's time for me to retire. In order that the Dave Platt designs continue to be available to modelers, the kit manufacturing rights are being transferred to Belair Kits in England. (www.belairkits.com).
This process will be completed by May 2017. The Dave Platt videos will stay with DPM for the time being.
I wish to thank my customers for their support for over 40 years, and ask that you give the same loyalty to Leon Cole at Belair as you have so generously given me.
I'm used to saying "Welcome to my workshop!" which I do on all of my videotapes, but this time I'm saying "Welcome to my Website!"
I hope that during your visit here you will find a whole load of interesting goodies to increase your enjoyment of Scale Radio Control, that side of the model airplane hobby that is all at once so frustrating and maddening sometimes, yet can be so uplifting and satisfying at other times that we wouldn't trade it for anything else on earth.
A couple of years ago, I felt that the time had come for me to pass on my 60 years of modeling experience. Through my videotapes, I'm giving newcomers to scale, and old hands too, a short-cut to learning the techniques it has taken me so long to evolve. In short, I've tried to show RC scale fans everywhere how to build better models (and more quickly, too) than they ever could before.
Dave Platt -- "Mr. Scale"

I need help on how I can query windows service via php using win32_query_Service_status.
I have a windows server that I need to query 5 services running.
How can I use win32_query_Service_status to query all of them at the same time.
A sample script please would be great.
Thanks again guys for your help.

Can you explain a little more about what you are trying to accomplish?
What platform are you querying from?
Is php a mandatory language?
Some items from your request gives me the idea that you are querying from a linux machine to a windows machine. If this is the case there are some already developed solutions. You could look into some of the nagios plugins, which are a combination of bash and perl scripts. You don't need nagios, just the ability to call the script from php. -or- If you have snmp enabled on these windows machines you can use an snmp query to find out if the service is enabled without needing to install anything on the target machine.
Apr 23, 2012 at 7:14 UTC
Thanks George for your reply. Please note that I'm querying from windows machine to a windows server.
here is the script i am using...
The output of the script is: status of service "Servicename123"
My problem is, how can I query all 5 services, not just the "Servicename123"
Thanks again.
$Servicename = "Servicename123";
$Machine ="Servername";
echo "ServiceName:" . " ". $Servicename;
$Service = win32_query_Service_status($Servicename,$Machine);
echo "
";
echo "Service is: ";
if ($Service["CurrentState"]==1) {echo "Stopped";}
if ($Service["CurrentState"]==2) {echo "Starting";}
if ($Service["CurrentState"]==3) {echo "Stopping";}
if ($Service["CurrentState"]==4) {echo "RUNNING";}
echo "
";
return $Service["CurrentState"];
echo "
";
Apr 23, 2012 at 7:28 UTC
Ok, since you are staying in the windows genre then to answer your question. You will have to query each service name individually.
How I would go about it is to create a two dimensional array (there are other ways to go about this), but in the first element put the service name, and the second element is the results of the service check. Then loop through the array of service names and store the results in the matching element. This way you can expand or contract the number of service checks by just updating the array. Then when presenting this array to the user, again loop through the array the service name will be in element 0, and the results will be in element 1.
Apr 23, 2012 at 8:10 UTC
Thanks again George!
However my php knowledge is not that good...:-(
Is there a way to query them all at the same time.
Example, I will just input "service" then it will out put all the status of the service starting with the name "service"?
Apr 23, 2012 at 8:54 UTC
You can't query with a wild card with this function, you will have to call for each service independently.
Here is some info on looping through an array. Look at the second example with foreach in it. It gives you an example of an array command. To keep it simple create two arrays one with service names and one with service results. You should be able to combine your script with this example and get pretty close.
something like:
foreach ($x as $value)
$y[$i++] = win32_query_Service_status($value,$Machine);
Here is some info on arrays. You could create an associative array to make things a little easier. But start with the basics to begin with.
Here is some info on the post increment (i++) operator.
Just as full disclaimer, I'm not a real php programmer I just play one on tv.
This discussion has been inactive for over a year.
You may get a better answer to your question by starting a new discussion.

Click HERE to see the Rebekah Brooks video
One of Britain's largest lobbying companies has been secretly recorded boasting about its access to the heart of the Government and how it uses the "dark arts" to bury bad coverage and influence public opinion.
An undercover investigation by the Bureau of Investigative Journalism, published in i and its sister paper The Independent today, has taped senior executives at Bell Pottinger:
l Claiming they have used their access to Downing Street to get David Cameron to speak to the Chinese Premier, Wen Jiabao, on behalf of one of their business clients within 24 hours of asking him to do so;
l Boasting about Bell Pottinger's access to the Foreign Secretary, William Hague, to Mr Cameron's chief of staff, Ed Llewellyn, and to Mr Cameron's old friend and closest No 10 adviser, Steve Hilton;
l Suggesting that the company could manipulate Google results to "drown" out negative coverage of human rights violations and child labour;
l Saying it was possible to use MPs known to be critical of investigative programmes to attack their reporting for minor errors.
Reporters from the Bureau posed as agents for the government of Uzbekistan – a brutal dictatorship responsible for killings, human rights violations and child labour – and representatives of its cotton industry in a bid to discover what promises British lobbying and public relations firms were prepared to make when pitching to clients, what techniques they use, and how much of their work is open to public scrutiny. Bell Pottinger quoted "£1m-plus" as a fee for carrying out the work.
Last year, David Cameron pledged to tackle lobbying saying it was "the next big scandal waiting to happen".
Bell Pottinger execs showed few signs of being deterred by Uzbekistan's dire reputation. They made it clear that the Uzbek government would need to put genuine reforms in place if it were to improve its image.
"We've got all sorts of dark arts," said Bell Pottinger's Tim Collins. "I told him he couldn't put them in the written presentation because it's embarrassing if it gets out."
The chairman of Bell Pottinger, Tim Bell, responded via his lawyers, attacking the Bureau. Lord Bell said: "The conduct of the Bureau of Investigative Journalism does not remotely constitute responsible journalism. It is an attempt by unethical deception to manufacture a story where none exists."
A spokeswoman for the Prime Minister said: "It is simply not true that Bell Pottinger or indeed any other lobbying company has any influence on government policy."
