Custom email processor for JIRA
With ReceiveMe! you can configure a custom email processor to automatically create issues or comments on existing issues based on incoming messages received by a mail server.
Each email sent to the configured email recipient will create or comment a JIRA issue. The issue description will maintain the same layout with all embedded images in its place and respecting the text formatting.
If the email sender has no licensed user account, a new user account will be created for her/him. This new account will not consume a JIRA license.
More details
Built by atSistemas, an Atlassian Platinum Expert.
ReceiveMe! provides with a custom email processor that automatically create issues or comments on existing issues, keeping the original body text format. If the email sender does not have a valid JIRA account, then ReceiveMe! will create a JIRA account that doesn't take up any JIRA license.
Key highlights:
- User-friendly interface: We've respected the JIRA schemes configuration convention, so that the user feels comfortable configuring our add-on.
- Easy creation of issues: Each new email sent to the pre-configured email address will automatically create a JIRA issue.
- Inline image handling, text format and attachments: The issue description will maintain the text format, include embedded images and attachments the same way they were added to the originating email.
- Easy user registration: Each email sender with no licensed JIRA account will be created as an unlicensed JIRA user.

Pricing details are loading…
Paid-via-Atlassian pricing FAQ
- How does server add-on pricing work?
Server products and add-ons are hosted on your servers. Licenses are perpetual and the purchase price include 12 months of maintenance (support and version updates).
You can renew maintenance after 12 months at 50% of the current purchase price. You can upgrade the tier of your host product and add-on licenses at any time. Upgrade prices are calculated based on Atlassian's formula (view example).
If add-on pricing changes after your initial purchase, there's a 60-day grandfathering period during which you can renew based on the old pricing.
- How do I determine my server pricing?
Add-ons are billed based on the number of users in your host product. For JIRA Server 7.0 or later, the add-on tier should match the maximum tier of the licensed JIRA products on your instance. For example, if you're running JIRA Software (50 users) and JIRA Service Desk (10 agents) on the same instance, you should purchase the 50-user tier for add-ons. For versions of JIRA Server prior to 7.0, the add-on tier should match the licensed user tier for JIRA. Even if fewer users want to use the add-on than your JIRA license, the two licenses should match exactly.
- Do you offer academic, community, or open-source licenses?
For server add-ons, purchase and renewal is half-price if you have an academic license for your Atlassian host product. Server add-ons are always free for community and open-source licenses.
For more details about qualifying for special licenses, see here.
- Can I extend my free trial?
For server add-ons, you can extend your add-on trial up to 5 times - in other words, for up to six months. Extend your trial by generating a new evaluation license key from Atlassian Marketplace. Click Try it free and you'll be directed to generate a new license. Paste this license key into the add-on listing in UPM from your Atlassian host product, and you're all set.
- How can I buy add-ons for my legacy JIRA Server or Confluence Server license?
If you own a legacy JIRA Server Unlimited (100+ users) or Confluence Server Unlimited (2000+ users) license purchased in 2012 or earlier, legacy add-on pricing is no longer available. You have two options for add-on purchasing:
- Purchase the add-on at the non-legacy Unlimited (10000+ users) tier.
- Renew your JIRA or Confluence license at a non-legacy tier, then purchase the add-on at the same tier.

I often get questions on whether coats can be altered from regular to petite sizing. Fact of the matter is almost anything can be altered if you have a skilled tailor and unlimited budget! And after a costly and irreversible mis-alteration by a Burberry tailor, I've learned that pretty much all alterations also come with risk, regardless of tailor reputation.
For those who've requested alteration examples, this is the Banana Republic trench I really liked but only came in regular sizing. My tailor has successfully done a few jackets for me before so I decided it was worth a shot. Aside from length, other typical differences between regular and petite garments usually include higher armholes, narrower shoulders, higher waistlines, and sometimes even shrunken details like prints or buckles.
Ideally, a very skilled tailor would probably detach the collar and sleeves of this jacket, then raise the entire torso by the shoulder line. That way the armholes are shifted upwards and the length becomes cropped as intended, without having to chop off fabric on the bottom and make the spacing below buttons and pockets look odd. Unfortunately my tailor is not familiar with that complex method, so we left length unchanged and did the following:
- Make shoulders narrower
- Shorten shoulder epaulettes (as they would then run past the new shoulder seam)
- Raise armholes and slim throughout the length of sleeve
- Shorten sleeves, detaching and reattaching the buckle strap
In the end I was happy with how these alterations came out, but part of me does wish the cropped design could've been preserved (works as a regular length coat on me). Lesson learned is to not settle on an item if tailoring can't make the fit exactly how you envisioned. I also wanted to point out below common alteration side effects for garments with strap detailing - residual stitching holes left behind, typical after belt loops get moved up or sleeves get shortened. Most of my tailors warn me about this before proceeding, and it's usually minor enough that I don't mind.
Side note: the color of this jacket is a medium caramel brown, which I happened to really like so I'm surprised to see the 1-star reviews online because of it! The material IS crinkle-prone, however, and I wish the lining were a little nicer looking than shiny white leopard print. Here is a quick look at that similar Ann Taylor short trench which I thought was pretty good fit and quality for the price:
The material of the Ann Taylor is that 99% cotton, 1% spandex like my trench dress which is impressive for the price point these days, and the fit of the petite sizing (this is 00P) would need minimal alterations if any on shorter ladies. Below right - this was a delicate paisley print shirt which I thought would spruce up solid bottoms, like a mustard skirt or navy slacks, but didn't have time to try on.
I also get a lot of questions on alteration costs and have to say it can range wildly from tailor to tailor. I paid ~ $50 to tailor this trench, but at my past tailors I would expect double that or more for a lined jacket.

Review for Pro-Tow:Towing Auburn Maple Valley
James S. on 07/11/2015
James said this business did not tell him about the after hours fee that they charge until he arrived at his destination, so he had to pay $40 more than he was expecting. They could serve him better by making sure their customers know exactly how much they are going to have to pay before the tow is done.

Life, supported
I have great sympathy for Hassan Rasouli's family, who are at odds with doctors over keeping him on life support (A Fight Over The Dying Of The Light – Nov. 30). When my father was incapacitated in an Edmonton cardiac unit, we got the standard "quality vs. quantity" speech by a rather gruff, unsympathetic heart specialist. When our family finally decided to turn off the machines, the staff seemed annoyed that we arrived late for the "event" the next day, reminding us of the cost of keeping him alive. We could almost hear them shout "Next!" as they hurried dad's body out of the room.
The irony is that my father retired early from the hospital management system because he was so tired of bean counters setting hospital policy. Deciding to end someone's life is a difficult experience, but one that must remain in the hands of the family, not accountants and the state.
J. Alan Harstone, Saskatoon
On both fiscal and humanitarian grounds, Ottawa should make it illegal to artificially prolong life where a team of doctors officially agrees that, miracles aside, there is no hope.
Hugh McKechnie, Newmarket, Ont.
I applaud Ed Shannon's letter (End Of Life – Nov. 29). My husband opted for palliative care in our local Hospice House. At my insistence, we agreed I would first try to care for him at home with palliative-care help. It took only a week to realize this was impossible; he transferred to Hospice House. I stayed with him in his room the entire time, and his last few days could not have been spent more comfortably, with more care than I ever could have supplied. For that, I will be eternally grateful, as was he.
Norma Steward, Kelowna, Ont.
Lisa Priest (Calculating The Spiralling Costs Of Dying – Nov. 29) highlights the increasingly unsustainable costs associated with care for the final year of life. She posits that more personal directives and living wills would help manage the problem. Without doubt, this is true. But, as one regularly in the "front line" facing such dilemmas, it is rare indeed for patients and their families to have such directives. I fear that society is a long way from comprehending the importance of these, however sensible to health-care providers they may seem.

An app for that
In April of 2010, coincidentally the same week that the first iPad went on sale, consumer debt in Canada passed the $1-trillion mark. According to Statscan, combined federal, provincial and municipal debt in 2011 is $846-billion. It isn't any wonder that consumers don't want to pay higher taxes: We've bought too much stuff (Spend Like A Household – Nov. 30). Maybe there's an app for solving the debt problem …
Doug Paul, Toronto
Climate collision
The idea that "no single country … can diminish greenhouse-gas emissions on their own" is obvious (Progress In A Time Of Divergence – editorial, Nov. 30). What matters for Canadians, however, is that our government is doing everything it can to throw a monkey wrench into co-ordinating international efforts to tackle climate change and build a green energy economy.
Brendan Haley, Ottawa
On average, carbon dioxide spends about 100 years in the atmosphere, so some people look back as well as forward when they talk about who owns the problem of emissions and who should be doing the most to prevent more. Can't you just imagine the Chinese and Indian delegates shaking their heads and wondering whether this Kent person could possibly be even less informed than the angry Baird individual that Stephen Harper sent to harangue them last time (Kent Rejects Guilt Payment On Climate – Nov. 30).
Bruce Mason, Toronto
Notwithstanding my nervousness about Stephen Harper, I've always agreed with his stance on Kyoto. Canada should ignore the international Robin-Hoodism of environmental alarmists who would have developed countries transfer billions of dollars to poor countries for no justifiable reason.
Kyoto is based on a tiny corner of climate science that focuses on carbon dioxide emissions. When we realize humans and other animals play a marginal role in affecting climate, we might be able to get on with issues that more justifiably command our financial and other resources, such as cleaning up the pollution of our air, water and land that humans do cause – soot, smog, sulphur and nitrogen oxides, and other pollutants that are far more injurious to human health and the environment than carbon dioxide.
Gerald Crawford, Mississauga, Ont.
To tweet, or not to ...
Twitter does not foster literacy with a 140-character limit that promotes misspelling and contractions, nor can 140 characters promote deep engagement with anything, much less Shakespeare (Classroom Evolution – Nov. 30). Tweeting homework assignments prevents the children from using their brain-developing cursive writing and literacy skills, not to mention teaching them responsibility. In The Merchant of Venice, a character discovers that "All that glisters is not gold," and that he must be "as wise as bold." We should take the hint: Technology may augment, but it cannot replace the teaching of basic principles.
Katherine Magyarody, Toronto
Primary teachers (Grades K to 3) spend an average 13 minutes per day in printing instruction. As printing instruction is not curriculum-based, teaching and evaluation methods are inconsistent and lack research. Printing instruction, for the most part, stops in Grade 3.
I've worked with brilliant children who have been labelled "learning disabled" simply because they can't remember how to make their letters and numbers. Printing practice enhances reading skill, as the child learns to recognize letters through producing them. Children who are slow printers are often assessed by a team of education and health professionals (I know because I am one), categorized, and then provided with an IEP (individualized education program) and specialized assistance at an astronomical cost to the system. So, isn't this problem really a "teacher disability"? The decline of literacy can be stopped by teaching children how to print.
Cris Rowan, CEO, Zone'in Programs Inc., Sechelt, B.C.
Unhand that cup
Before the hoopla of the annual CFL festival and its bacchanalian cohort fades, it might be appropriate to recall that the Grey Cup was originally donated in 1909 by governor-general Lord Grey for "amateur rugby football." It was soon – what's a polite word for purloined? – utilized by Canadian amateur football and subsequently ended up with the CFL, which utilizes it as the centrepiece of a public relations exercise for "professional" Canadian football.
As Canadians, we like to apologize for the sins of the fathers. So I suggest next year the CFL mark the 100th Grey Cup game by restoring the cup to the Canadian Rugby Union, for competition in accordance with Lord Grey's wishes with, of course, a full apology and compensation for the conversion of property, a polite term for what we used to call theft.

DROE Tool Source Code (Finally!)
May 31st
I can't believe it has taken me over two years to get this code cleaned up and posted! In that time I have changed companies, moved my family across the country, started a new job, bought a house, sold a house, and dealt with some health issues. Even then, I can't believe this has taken so long and I am sorry for the delay!
I realize that many people have probably moved on to other tools. Nonetheless, here it is (click here to download ZIP file). In this ZIP file you will find all of the AHK code that runs the current 0.5 alpha01 version plus some newer improvements, fixes, and mods that I have been using privately but never released. One of the major new features you will find in here is the ability to parse note text as it is submitted and automatically create tasks in Outlook. I was using this code for the better part of a year, but I haven't tested it in a while since I am not currently managing tasks in Outlook.
Note that this ZIP file does NOT represent a fully tested or stable release of the DROE_Tool. This is simply a release of all of the source code that goes into the DROE_Tool for those of you that like to tinker with AHK code (and VBS code) and would like to customize the tool for your own needs.

While every effort is made to test the content, it may still contain errors, omissions, or latent defects. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Good luck, and happy coding!
Strip Outlook Attachments and Replace with Links
Feb 22nd
UPDATE OCT 2009: Reader jumpjack has created a Google Code project for this macro. You can download the latest source code on the project page.
There are many good reasons to strip attachments from your email messages. The main reason for me is that I often embed email messages into my Outlook tasks for quick reference. Since some tasks have multiple emails (each with multiple attached files), I need a way to keep the task size manageable. So, I simply strip the attachments before embedding the email into the task. Another reason to strip attachments is to improve Outlook performance. Smaller PST files are less likely to be corrupted and are faster to search and index.
The Outlook VBA macro below is one easy way to strip attachments from your messages. Simply select one or more messages in the Outlook explorer window, then activate the macro. The result is shown in the screen shot below. As you can see, all of the attachments throughout the email are numbered and replaced with links at the top of the message. There is even a hyperlink to the folder containing the attachments. The macro also saves a text copy of the original email message along with the attachments for future reference.
You'll notice that there is still one small attachment remaining called "Attachments Removed". This is added so that the paperclip icon in Outlook is still active, which indicates that the message has (or had) attachments.
The attachments archive folder is organized with one folder per email, as shown below. The folders are named using the date of the message, the sender name, and the subject line. At the end of the year, you can grab the whole collection and zip it up for archive purposes. Since the links are hard coded into the emails, you'll want to be consistent with your folder locations. That is why I simply use "C:\Outlook Attachments\" along with the year. If I ever want to restore some old messages and be able to browse the file attachments, I know exactly where to put them.
Backup All Outlook Contacts to VCard in 3 Easy Steps
Jan 18th
For some reason, the Microsoft Outlook developers never really embraced the vCard format, and did not provide adequate ways to import/export to this format. The "File > Import and Export…" menu only has ways to import vCards, and no options to export them. Because of this, various tools and add-ins have appeared that allow you to backup/export your Outlook contacts to vCard, and some of them even cost money! Why should you have to pay to back up your contacts?
Well, you don't. It turns out there is an easy (but non-obvious) way to do this in Outlook without any additional tools or add-ins. Here it is in 3 easy steps:
STEP 1: Select all contacts in your Outlook contact folder (CTRL-A).
STEP 2: Select "Forward as vCard" from the Actions menu.
Handy Outlook Attachment Reminder Macro
Sep 17th
Have you ever had one of those "oh shit" moments where two seconds after sending an email you realized something was missing? And you know, by using the Outlook "Recall Message" feature, you're just going to draw even more attention to your mistake. It's like a highway accident… people will open recalled messages before anything else in their Inbox just to see what you might have screwed up.
Here's one easy way to prevent that from happening: use this Outlook VBA macro to automatically scan your outgoing messages and stop incomplete emails & invites before they get sent. This macro will check for missing attachments on messages & meeting invites where you probably meant to attach something. It will also check for blank subject lines, as well as blank locations in meeting invites.
ClearContext and My Quest for an Empty Inbox
Jul 20th
In a previous post I talked about my quest for an empty inbox and all the tools I tried along the way. Well, I'm at it again. My previous tool of choice, Taglocity, has taken a turn toward online social/collaborative email in their 2.0 release. I'm afraid that 99% of the email I handle is work related, and our big lumbering IT department would never allow a rogue server, inside or outside the firewall, collecting corporate data. Likewise, getting said lumbering IT department to establish their own server would be equally unlikely. The social/collaborative approach might be the next big thing, but I need help now. The final nail in the coffin was that some of the features that originally sold me on Taglocity 1.x are no longer supported in their 2.0 beta release. Given the new direction, those features won't likely return.
So where does that leave me? Well, I went back to my notes and started to think about what kind of help I really need. Here are the requirements I came up with:
- Need a quick way to triage and file email. Filing must be effortless, otherwise I will resist doing it
- Needs to be a stable tool that works well with Outlook 2003 (yes, I'm still stuck there… see comment above related to the big lumbering IT department).
- Need to strip out the spam and low-priority reference email & notifications
- Need reminders for my own actions as well as follow-ups for requests I send to others
- Must fit into my GTD workflow… In general, that means I need a way to create tasks and appointments from email and somehow tie related tasks/emails/appointments/notes together to form a "project".
After recasting my net and re-evaluating the latest versions of all the tools I had previously considered, I came across a gem that I hadn't given a chance the first time around: ClearContext IMS. It seemed to meet all of the needs I described above, and there was even a trial version available… Off I went.
After using the tool for over a month now, I am starting to see some nice benefits from the various features. Here's a look at the highlights as well as some improvement opportunities for the ClearContext development team…
FILE MESSAGE, FILE THREAD. ClearContext does a fantastic job with filing (my #1 requirement above). One of the best features is being able to bring up the topic selection dialog (ALT-P) and type just a few characters of the topic name to narrow down the list. ALT-M will file it from there (no mouse required). What is especially nice is that your don't have to remember any prefix or top level folder name since a match even in the middle of the topic name will select it. Additionally, You can choose to file the original message while typing your reply right from inside the reply window. Nice touch!
Two needed improvements for topic filing are:

10 years after Britain handed Hong Kong back to China, there has not been as much political change as people expected.
The heat was oppressive but as the long, thin Chinese rowing boats sliced through the water, the crowd along the river bank burst into life, cheering and waving and urging the teams on.
The rowers were luminous in lycra, pounding the water to the beat of a Chinese drum.
The boats, each prow carved and painted as a rising Chinese dragon, flew towards the finish line.
The Chinese festival of dragonboat racing stretches back thousands of years.
Hong Kong loves it - partly because of pride in the Chinese tradition and partly because it is a great day out.
All around me small children, parents and grandparents were pressed against the rails, eating ice cream.
The mood amongst the spectators was relaxed.
Proud to be Chinese
Peter Wong, a portly property agent with thick glasses, greeted me with a beaming smile. At the time of the handover, he said, he had had mixed feelings. He had been proud Hong Kong was going back to China but he was also frightened. Now, he said, he was just proud.
"Politics, economics - everything is better now than 10 years ago," he said. "The mainland has really helped Hong Kong."
Others there said the same.
"I used to think of myself as a Hong Kong person", an IT specialist told me. "But since the handover, that's slowly changed. Now, I say I'm Chinese."
He too said he had been anxious then - but not any more.
"Before we were ruled by a foreign government," he said. "Now we're part of the mother country."
They have been eager to foster patriotism - a sense of unity and loyalty - in Hong Kong.
And despite the dire predictions in 1997, Beijing's handling of Hong Kong so far may not have been perfect, but it has not been bad either.
The economy is booming, businessmen are still making money and public institutions like the police, the courts and the civil service are still efficient and accountable.
Most basic rights - including freedom of speech and the right to protest - are alive and well.
Fighting for democracy
In a way, this general contentment is a disaster for the government's political opponents - especially those still fighting for democracy.
Today, there is little sign of the progress they hoped for.
Hong Kong's leader is still indirectly appointed by Beijing. Only half the legislators are directly elected.
Beijing is committed to giving Hong Kong democracy at some stage. But that is it. There is no timetable and no sign that Beijing is in a hurry to give Hong Kong people full control of their own affairs.
You may remember names like Martin Lee and Emily Lau - local leaders who were not afraid to speak out and became closely associated with the call for democracy. So how are they doing, a decade on?
I went to meet Emily Lau in Hong Kong's parliament building. She rushed to our interview from a press conference where she and fellow democrats had been urging the public to mark the tenth anniversary of the handover with a mass pro-democracy demonstration.
The last 10 years has given her an air of disappointment but she is no less determined.
I asked her how she thought democracy could come about.
"Ultimately", she said, "the real guarantee for a free and democratic Hong Kong is a free and democratic China."
That made me think she may be in for a long wait.
Growing underclass
Of course political change can come in the most unexpected ways. Although the middle classes and the tycoons are doing well, Hong Kong has a growing underclass. The gap between rich and poor is steadily widening. At the bottom of the ladder, discontent and anti-government feeling are quietly simmering.
Hong Kong was built on the dream of success. It has always been proud of being a place where you can arrive penniless, work hard and end up rich, even super rich. Now, it seems, that dream is dying. The Hong Kong economy is dominated, more than ever, by big corporations and wealthy tycoons. The small businessman is being squeezed out.
In the side streets of Wanchai, I walked round the market stalls, where hawkers sell trinkets and toys and cheap clothes. They are manufactured goods which used to be made in factories in Hong Kong but now come over the border from mainland China.
I met Miss Cheng, a middle aged woman with a thin face and pixie haircut. She was selling plastic and cork sandals. Did she want democracy?
"What's the point?" she said. "The government doesn't care about the poor. And if people aren't educated, if their standard of living is poor, why bother giving them the vote."
Across the lane, Ming Chan was crouched over his flower stall, preparing an extravagant bouquet of purple flowers. He too was cynical.
"In the past, if you were poor, you could work hard and get on", he said. "That's not true any more. In today's Hong Kong, you've got to be educated, a middle class professional. Not an uneducated entrepreneur."
So what about democracy, I asked. He laughed. "Democracy? The poor don't want a vote, we all want a better life".
"As for democracy", he added, "we barely know what the word means."

20 January 1946, Columbus, Ohio, USA. Sheridan began studying piano as a child and would later declare that at the age of eight he was hooked on jazz through hearing the playing of Jess Stacy and Teddy Wilson on a recording of Benny Goodmans 1938 Carnegie Hall concert. This experience also prompted him to study clarinet and from 13 he played in a dance band, the Novelaires. After completing high school he played in the Whetstone Orchestra and Concert Band before studying at Capital University, in Columbus, where he again concentrated on piano. He played in a US Navy band while on military service then returned to his studies, this time for a masters degree at North Texas State University. While in Texas, he played with the Upper Dallas Jazz Band and also met Jim Cullum with whom he formed a long-lasting friendship and musical partnership. With Cullum he not only played at the Riverside restaurant in San Antonio but also appeared regularly on radio...

Checking for skin cancer
Do the check
Look over your entire body regularly. Skin cancers can be in places you can't see yourself, so you may need to ask someone to help you check.
Remember to check in places that are hard to see or might not normally get exposed to the sun, such as:
- your armpits
- behind your ears
- your scalp
- the bottom of your feet
- your finger and toenails.
If you don't have someone who can check these awkward places for you, try using a hand mirror.
It's a good idea to keep track of how spots and moles look so you know if they have changed since you last checked your skin.
If you have any concerns, talk to your doctor and show them what is worrying you.
Melanoma NZ (formerly called the Melanoma Foundation of NZ) has developed a video that shows you how to check your skin.
Source: Melanoma NZ
Visit Melanoma NZ's website for more information on detecting skin cancers.
Visit the Ministry of Health's website for more advice on checking your skin.
See your doctor
See your doctor as soon as possible if you:
- see or feel something that's new on your skin
- see or feel something that's different from other moles
- notice a mole that's changed from the last time you checked - this could include a change in the colour, shape or size, or if it is bleeding or itchy.
Some skin cancers can spread very quickly, so noticing a change in your skin quickly (early detection) means that it's more likely to be treated successfully.

This review is from: GIGABYTE GV-N660OC-2GD G-SYNC Support GeForce GTX 660 2GB 192-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
Made the purchase after reading favorable reviews at techpowerup & tomshardware, and since then have found those write-ups to be accurate and on-point.
This card runs cool, at Max Settings w/ a ton of graphical mods (Flora Overhaul, SMIM, etc) in Skyrim the fan speed barely ramps up, and temps sit nicely in the mid 50's.
None to say. YMMV installing (physically) it, depending on how cramped or not your rig's interior is.
I had a smidgen of trouble getting one of my Enermax's PCIe power cables to reach around to where the port is located on the card, which is the side, not the end, although that may be actually easier to get to again depending on you've routed your cables.

"I think when we're in love when we love in our lives, when look beautiful."
So, the price of the star of beauty have love in your life?

Councillor John Clancy, the Leader of Birmingham City Council, said:
"I cannot think of a more suitable place than Birmingham for Future Cities Catapult to stage the first ever Innovation Week. Birmingham, once renowned across the world as the city of a thousand trades, is still at the very heart of entrepreneurialism – nurturing small businesses is ingrained in our DNA.
"In fact, I'm delighted to say that Birmingham was named the most entrepreneurial place in the UK in this year's Enterprising Britain Awards.

NEW YORK (AP) Andy Roddick is all for raucous, rowdy tennis fans.
Just as long as they're quiet while a point is being played.
The issue arose at the U.S. Open - where, as it is, spectators traditionally are louder than at Wimbledon or the French Open - because the chair umpire warned a group of fans for being disruptive during James Blake's loss to Mardy Fish.
"It's sports. You're supposed to go after someone. There's supposed to be tense moments. You're supposed to yell," the eighth-seeded Roddick said Sunday after beating No. 31 Andreas Seppi 6-2, 7-5, 7-6 (4) to reach the fourth round. "All of a sudden, if there's a net and rackets involved, you can't do that?"
Like other Americans at the American Grand Slam tournament, Roddick generally receives strong support at Flushing Meadows, and he's been known to play to the crowds - even high-fiving a fan after a point.
But he acknowledges there are limits.
"If someone tosses a ball up and you yell, then I think that's a direct distraction. If it's between points, yeah, they can do whatever they want," he said. "I think as long as you're respectful of the rules of the game, have a ball."
Why is it important that there's silence during play?
"We use all of our senses. ... We're trying to see a ball moving at 100-and-whatever miles an hour," the 2003 U.S. Open champion said. "As long as it's in the framework of being respectful, then I'm all for it. You can do a handstand if you want."
Roddick, of course, has been known to make a racket, too.
Well, break a racket.
He smashed one during his second-round victory over Ernests Gulbis on Friday night, completely mangling it.
As he put it: "If I complain about anybody carrying on during a match, I'd be bordering on hypocrisy."
And Roddick sees no reason for tennis to have a code of conduct saying players should be warned - and, eventually, penalized - for racket abuse.
"If a guy wants to break a bat in the dugout, he doesn't get warned. It's not hurting anyone," he said. "If it's affecting your opponent, then that's probably disrespectful, then keep it out of there. But it's my racket, not anybody else's."
MR. LUX NOT LAX: To many, being the top tennis player in their country's history would be quite a thrill. To Gilles Muller, there's a qualifier.
"I mean, that's not my goal, to be the best in Luxembourg," he said.
Muller became the first man or woman from his nation to reach the fourth round at a Grand Slam, rallying past No. 18 Nicolas Almagro 6-7 (3), 3-6, 7-6 (5), 7-6 (6), 7-5 Sunday at the U.S. Open. In his previous match, he rallied from two sets down for the first time in his career and beat Tommy Haas 2-6, 2-6, 7-6 (5), 6-3, 6-3.
The win over Haas made Muller the first man from Luxembourg to get into the third round at a Slam. He was first to reach the second round, too. Then again, he's the only man from his country to play in a major event.
"I'm the first one actually to do everything," he said.
The 25-year-old Muller seemed to be on the verge of a breakthrough in 2005 when he beat Rafael Nadal at Wimbledon and Andy Roddick at the U.S. Open.
"I had a tough time after that. ... I was dropping in the rankings," he said. "I guess everything is in the head. Everything is confidence. I guess I lost a lot of it."
The junior U.S. Open champion in 2001, Muller came into this event ranked No. 130 and has never won a tournament as a pro. He won three matches in U.S. Open qualifying after traveling from a minor league event in Turkey.
Next up for Muller is No. 5 Nikolay Davydenko in the round of 16.
ALL DAY LONG: Sybille Bammer waited a long time for this win.
Sure, her victory at the U.S. Open on Sunday put Bammer into the quarterfinals of a Grand Slam event for the first time. But her 7-6 (3), 0-6, 6-4 win over No. 12 Marion Bartoli was notable for another reason - at 3 hours, 5 minutes, it was believed to be the longest women's match, by time, in the tournament's history.
"I didn't even really sweat," the Austrian winner said. "I could have played longer."
Bammer actually didn't spent a tremendous amount of time running around. Instead, the match was often delayed because of Bartoli's ailments as the Frenchwoman frequently held her stomach and back.
Justine Henin and Jennifer Capriati were believed to hold the old Open women's mark of 3:03. Henin won 4-6, 7-5, 7-6 (4) in the 2003 semifinals at Flushing Meadows.

Illumina, Inc. (NASDAQ:ILMN) shares tanked, and the biotech sector shuddered Tuesday after the company declared unflattering preliminary sales numbers for its third quarter.
Illumina closed at $138.99, down 24.81% on volume of 12.43 million shares. Other companies in the space also closed in the red, for example, Agilent Tech (-4.19%), Thermo Fisher (-2.65%) and Pacific BioSciences (-7.29%).
The iShares NASDAQ Biotechnology Index (ETF) (NASDAQ:IBB), in which Illumina is a key holding, fell 3.84% to close at $277.
Also weighing on the sector was news Monday that a major investor had sued blood-testing startup Theranos Inc and its founder Elizabeth Holmes for allegedly lying in order to secure its $100 million investment.
Illumina, Inc. (NASDAQ:ILMN) preliminary numbers show sales are off
Illumina sells expensive DNA sequencing machines, and has likely not sold as many as it expected during Q3.
For the third quarter it gave a preliminary estimate of sales of $607 million, which was well short of its revenue guidance of $625 million to $630 million. It also disappointed on Street expectations of $628 million.
"The shortfall in quarterly revenue was driven by a larger than anticipated year-over-year decline in high throughput sequencing instruments," the company said. "As a result, the company expects fourth quarter revenue will be flat to slightly up sequentially."
Investors understandably headed for the hills after Illumina's huge guidance miss and the dull outlook painted by the company for Q4.
Analysts reexamine Illumina, Inc. (NASDAQ:ILMN)
Analysts at Citigroup downgraded Illumina from Buy to Neutral. Canaccord Genuity kept intact their rating of Hold but lowered their price target from $165 to $136. Cantor Fitzgerald too reiterated their Hold, but chopped the price estimate from $165 to $155.
BTIG analyst Dane Leone suggested that growth in the gene sequencing market may be plateauing. "Clearly, a divergence has occurred whereby internal growth forecasts are failing to accurately reflect market demand," Leone said in a note to clients.
Technically, Illumina has traded over the past year in a range bounded by $130 at the lower end and $185 – $190 on the upper side.
Chances are it will now break the pattern heading down, resuming the downtrend it commenced from the $240 level.

Dog Veterinary
Ask a Dog Vet and Get Answers to Your Dog Health Questions
Hello & welcome, I am Dr. B, a licensed veterinarian and I would like to help you with your wee one today.
What medication is he on specifically just now? Is he still vomiting despite it?
Are his gums nice and pink (not white/pale)? Moist or sticky?
Did they feel that he was tender or sore in his belly?
Since you only provided a history and no actual question, what is your question about his situation?
Thank you,
I have to say that if he is vomiting despite Cerenia, then I whole heartedly agree with your vet. An xray or ultrasound would be indicated if a foreign body is suspect. Though if pancreatitis is suspect, then bloods (especially checking the pancreatic lipase) and an ultrasound are the best way to diagnose that. And those would be my next step here if we have dog vomiting through the Cerenia; especially since that drug usually settles mild nausea from infections and less serious issues. So, his vomiting despite treatment is a red flag of severe issues like pancreatitis but also fits with mechanical irritation of the GI from something potentially still being lodged inside the gut.
Please take care,
Dr. B.
If you have any other questions, please ask me – I'll be happy to respond. **Afterwards, I would be grateful if you would rate my service by clicking on the "Rate my Expert' button at the top of the page as this is the only way I am credited for helping you. Thank you for your feedback!: )

December 6, 2012 at 3:44 pm
TurtleJacket PentaEye is a new aluminum case for the iPhone 5 which will help you make finer photos.
The case has been specifically designed for the iPhone 5 and it adds no less than five lenses to the device's camera.
The 5 lenses are: Fisheye Lens 0.33x Wide Lens x0.7, 1.5x Tele Lens and Close Up Lens, and an extra hole for allowing you take pictures through the iPhone's camera lens.
They can be changed very easily with that incurred dial.
Normally you can get the same effect to some extent using applications and editing after taking the pictures, but if you want something better, then this case is the solution for you.
This case can be mounted on tripods and can be purchased from here at a price of $ 270.

Villa Maraki, Aghia Paraskevi
Villa Maraki Reviews
Add a review
09 September 2012
Amazing place to stay
John Payton, London, UK
My girlfriend and i spent a week at the Villa Maraki apartments. The rooms are very beautiful, very clean and well looked. The owners and the stuff was very friendly.We had maid service every day and complimentary toiletries, which was nice. The pool bar was open from early till late and Sakis was an excellent host and makes the most wonderful mojitos and strawberry daquiries. The food was really simple but very tasty. The pool itself is rather small but really clean and welcoming.Villa Maraki is on the main bus route (bus stop 16) and the bus runs every twenty minutes or so either into the old town, which is very cosmopolitan and is a must on an evening for people watching or to the beaches at the other end of the island. I totally recommend this hotel and i'll come again for sure next year!!!!
The best thing about my stay was ...
cleanliness, great atmosphere, best quality services

Let me introduce myself. My name is Mark Sisson. I'm 63 years young. I live and work in Malibu, California. In a past life I was a professional marathoner and triathlete. Now my life goal is to help 100 million people get healthy. I started this blog in 2006 to empower people to take full responsibility for their own health and enjoyment of life by investigating, discussing, and critically rethinking everything we've assumed to be true about health and wellness...Tell Me More
An entire year's worth of my top-shelf multi-vitamin-antioxidant, the Primal Blueprint Damage Control Master Formula. And what the hey, I'll also include a year's worth of Vital Omegas.
The Contest:
Beyond the informative, MDA is also a place where people can go to find encouragement and inspiration on the road to better health. And nothing inspires better than example. If going Primal has improved your life, great or small, now's your chance to share it with hundreds of thousands of people. Make and upload a video sharing your Primal success story. Maybe you've had a life changing success such as dramatic weight loss, a body transformation, or the reversing of type 2 diabetes. Or perhaps you've simply had a successful day like finally grilling a perfect steak, achieving your first pullup, or nudged your stubborn aunt to start taking what she eats seriously. Whatever your success story is, share it. The video doesn't have to be long, a minute or two is fine. Nor does it just have to be a talking head, if you want to show how you've transformed your backyard into a Primal garden, or show us something you can do now that you couldn't do four months prior, go for it. No points off for thinking outside the box. And don't forget to say your name (or nickname/handle) and tell us where you're from!
The video needs to be an original video made for the purposes of this contest. Title your video "[Your name's] Primal Blueprint Success Story" when uploading to YouTube.
Upload your video to YouTube and then email me the link. I'll publish select videos on Mark's Daily Apple at the end of the month. Include the words "Success Video Submission" in the subject line of your email. Otherwise, there's a good chance I may completely miss your submission.
The Deadline:
September 28, midnight PST. A week and a half.
Who is Eligible:
Anyone in the world can win this one.
How A Winner Will Be Decided:
Video submissions will be posted on September 30. The Worker Bees and I will choose a list of finalists to be voted on by readers.
Fine Print:
MDA reserves the right to publish and/or edit any videos submitted.
Visit the 30-Day Challenge Contest Page to find out which contests are still open, and to view winners.

That's awesome!! Well done! 🙂
My story very similar to your 🙂 finally on track with exercise the last couple months. I'm with you M'lle!!
We are changed for the better & for life.
(not photogenic, no vid from me either)
I love all the stories! They always kickstart me when I'm "slumping" 🙂
I'm an alcoholic, and I can swear for damn sure that I wouldn't have had the strenght to stop drinking, if I hadn't first started a huge daily regimen of supplements. It may seem backwards, and I wouldn't recommend drinking to anyone, but do whatever you can to take of your health in spite of what you do to sabotage it. Even if you still eat crap foods – take supplements. I took strong vitamins and minerals and fish oil and garlic and rose hip for my aching joints. And then, one day, it didn't seem impossible to stop drinking.
Hmmm — what about us technically challenged folks who don't own a video camera and wouldn't know how to operate one if we did?
Says it all. Thanks to living Primal and using CrossFit I've sustained a 95-100 score on the USAF physical fitness test for 5 years running now.
I first found Mark's blog quite some time back and he's been a huge influence on how I live my life and how I eat and train.
And by the way, Ulla, congrats and good luck!
I don't drink anymore, but used to quite a bit. I often had cravings for sweets the next morning, so there is for sure some kind of connection between them and alcohol. Now that I'm "primal" I don't even seem to give a damn about alcohol, although admittedly I was leaving it behind even before taking this route.
Still, I've been wondering if eating sugar somehow triggers an urge to drink.
Great to see your responses, folks! I never connected sugar cravings and alcohol, I have never liked sugar, but pasta for sure, and if you are hungry or exhausted, you want to drink. I'll pay more attention to that part of it in the future, too – thanks!
Great story, I have just been diagnosed with degenerative disc disease. I have more or less been Primal, need to be more so as well as seek treatment. MDA has certainlt taught me a great deal. Amazing stuff.
Hi Erin,
Have you had a any success in dealing with your degenerative disc disease? I've been primal for a few months and it has helped me a lot in regards to my back. Please let me know if you have time.
