The healthcare crisis is reaching a feverish pitch with critics and supporters of the historical legislation urged by President Barack Obama on the opposite end of the battle lines.
It is a hot stove topic that has African Americans talking and that in itself is a wonderful sign.
However, an even more significant step would be to call your local elected politicians and encourage them to take their plight to their congressional representatives and United States Senators.
There are clearly moments in our nation when only the voice of the voters will rise above all else just as it did when President Obama was elected in a monumental landslide.
In Inglewood this week the community came out in great numbers to receive free medical and dental services, but there were not enough dentist volunteers to service the needs of everyone.
That event underscored the importance of a national healthcare plan. It would benefit Americans of all walks of life, it would limit and stymie diseases that effect all fabrics of our society.
Employers will benefit because they would have the services of their workers and families would benefit because it would prevent unnecessary expenses that could go towards other needs.
This is a fight that we cannot allow for our President to battle alone. He needs us just like we needed him when it was a time for change and the great part is that the power is invested in our hands again.
Write, pick-up the phone, email, twitter, text–do what ever is most effective to get their attention in Washington D.C. to bring our country to a status that many other enjoy.
While some may not see healthcare as a right, it is a necessity that if not signed into law could affect those who are already fortunate to afford it.
The time is now to get involved in a process that could determine your life or that of your friend or neighbor. This is a time for action, and we'll deal with the reaction later. Hit the computer, or if you're going about it the old fashioned way write—write—write. Make a Change Today!!

I have been running my server with the ISPConfig perfect setup for Ubuntu 6.06 64bit since July. And well, I did the fatal mistake of dist-upgrade my server, which resulted in server stopped working, I found out it is related to me running 64bit on Intel and not AMD. I gave up trying to fix it and decided to reinstall running 32bit instead, so I followed the Ubuntu 6.10 Perfect setup, and installed latest version of ISPConfig I have mysql dumps of my databases, and a backup copy of /var/www and /home The server only had 1 site with 4 mail users. What is the easiest or quickest aproach to restore the site, mail and user details? Should I just import the db_ispconfig sql dump, and then restore the files in /var/www? Or is there more to it?
Hello, i had the same Problem yesterday i fixed it that way: put your /srv/var/ files where they belong (the files of your homepage). And create a databse named ispconfig, in which you dump your backup of the old isp tables. Then install ispconfig, and give him this database information. Isp regcognizes that there are webs customers etc and you can use thema as before . Plz keep your backups i can give you no garrantie In my Case it worked perfect
Hmm, I already installed Ispconfig. Did your method create the nessesary DNS entries, user accounts etc?
yes because this information is stored in the database ! in my case isp was installed but i lost the "home" directory, so i uninstalled, kept the database and the files stored in /var/www/webxxx/ and reinstalled. I gave the ISP Installer, the existing domain and it runs as before =)
Interesting, the reason I wonder is that I know ISPConfig created entries in /etc/passwd But of course I forgot to backup that part before reinstalling. Did you wipe the drive before installing again? or how did you "Uninstall"? I had a complete Wipe, so only thing I still have are the SQL dumps, the Home directory(Not used by ISPConfig) and the /var/www (Containing webs, and user Maildir)
Is there perhaps a developer here who knows how ISP config behaves when importing an existing database into a clean system? Does it create all the nessesary directories and entries in files? Regards. Brian.
With the installation Package comes an uninstaller, i used this. here you can say keep data. How many webs and customer did you have in your ISP ?
ISPConfig does not recreate the items when you import a existing database, but you can manipulate the ISPConfig database to let ISPConfig behave like the webs where newly added and it will make the directories and users for you. 1) Install the same ISPConfig version then on your old system. 2) Make a backup of the new database, then replace everything in your new database with the data from your old database exxept of the tables isp_server, doctype and isp_server_ip. 3) Use e.g. phpmyadmin to set the field "status" to the value "n" (n = new) in the tables: isp_isp_web isp_isp_user dns_isp_dns isp_isp_domain isp_isp_datenbank 4) Change one value in one website, e.g. the quota value in the ISPConfig interface and ISPConfig will start to write all websites and users to disk again. The only thing ISPConfig is not able to restore are the passwords for the users as they are not stored in the ISPConfig database, they are only stored in /etc/shadow and if I read the thread correctly you have lost this file?
Yes I don't have the files from /etc anymore. I was able to recreate everything by setting up the web with the same settings as it was except the users, after that I restored /var/www. Now the website worked, but none of the mail or sql dependant pages. So I restored the mysql databases, including the db_ispconfig and mysql database and ISPConfig actually did recreate all users in /etc/passwd but not in /etc/shadow. So this is lost and I will have to ask all users so I can set up their passwords again manually. For the future, what is a good backup plan for ISPconfig? to be able to recover quickly? I'm thinking in the terms of rsync to a second drive or file server.

A little 'sunshine' hits the Studio Theatre
"You know what your problem always was Willie? You always took the jokes too seriously!" — The Sunshine Boys
Lewis and Clark were a legend in the world of Vaudeville, bringing laughs to everyone for years. And by the end of it they hated each other. Now it's years later, 1972, and Clark's nephew wants to bring the two elderly comedians together for a television special on the history of comedy.
Is there anyway this is going to work out? You bet your bippy! But not without a lot of laughs, rancor, one-liners and some bittersweet memories.
Stephen Kauffman and Robert Gerould take the stage as the two cantankerous ex-partners in Neil Simon's "The Sunshine Boys," opening Friday, June 24, at the Studio Theatre. Marc Berman has his work cut out for him as Ben, the nephew trying to bring these two old hats together and maybe, just maybe, find a little closure for them.
They and the rest of the cast are guided through Simon's brilliant script by director Janelle Kauffman, and the evening promises to be filled with laughs and good times.
Bob and Ro Productions presents "The Sunshine Boys" at 8 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, 2 p.m. Sundays June 24 through July 24. Tickets are $20 general admission, $18 seniors and $15 students, and can be ordered by calling the box office at (877) 532-7171 between noon and 5 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. Tickets can also be purchased at the door, The Studio Theatre, 1028 R St., Sacramento. The play contains some strong language.

Sorry wookin'. I just had this same convo with Mr Reggae (who is in NY, on business). He hates traveling, even though he is away from the stress of home, has the entire bed to himself, eats every meal on his expense account, doesn't have to fight over the remote, no one complains about wet towels on the bed and strange women make his bed everyday and leave him chocolate every night.
It was 75 degrees here today though. Snowed in Jersey from what I heard. I do like strange women making my bed also.

Tribune Co. Finalizes Sale Of Cubs To Ricketts For About $800M
Published August 24, 2009
Ricketts Family Will Have Full Control Of Cubs |
COVERING THE BASES: In Chicago, David Roeder noted Tribune Co. currently is negotiating with lenders over a $13B debt load, and "how the proceeds of the Cubs sale will be handled will be decided at future hearings." Tribune Co. Chair Sam Zell said, "The Ricketts family will be a great steward of the franchise. They have a strong respect for the team, for the fans and for what the Cubs mean to the city of Chicago" (CHICAGO SUN-TIMES, 8/22). Meanwhile, the TRIBUNE's Sachdev cited sources as saying that WGN radio and TV will "retain long-term broadcast rights to the team under the deal." WGN Radio VP & GM Tom Langmyer said the station will "remain as the radio play-by-play home for the Chicago Cubs, and we look forward to our continued partnership with the club for many years to come." Sachdev noted the media rights "became a source of contention in negotiations," as the rights provide a "significant source of revenue" for team owners. But both sides "ended up compromising on media rights," lowering the purchase price originally set to close at about $900M (CHICAGOTRIBUNE.com, 8/21).
OVER-ZELLOUS: The SUN-TIMES' Roeder reported Zell's "long process" for selling the Cubs "probably cost his debt-strapped company at least" $150M. Sources close to the sale claim that Zell could have attracted about $1B for the team "if only he'd acted quickly a year ago." However, he instead "hatched a plan" to sell Wrigley to the state of Illinois, which "delayed the sale of the team for months, at a time the economy was worsening and lenders began cutting off promises of credit." By late '08, getting $1B in the sale was "out of the question" (CHICAGO SUN-TIMES, 8/23).
10 quick suggestions" for Ricketts, including "Thank Crane Kenney, tell him good-bye." Kenney "helped generate revenues at Wrigley Field, and the Captain Morgan Club is a huge success," but he also "oversaw ticket pricing changes that forced the average fan to stay at home and watch the games on TV" (CHICAGO TRIBUNE, 8/22). In Boston, Nick Cafardo wrote the Cubs "need a CEO/president who knows baseball, not marketing types," who will "hire the right GM and the right baseball staff." MLB Commissioner Bud Selig has a "lot of influence in these matters, and he has a short list of good people who have run successful franchises and want to do it again" (BOSTON GLOBE, 8/23).
WAITING ON DECK: In Illinois, Mike Imrem writes Tom Ricketts should be "patient before making a decision as important as a club president responsible for reshaping the organization." Too many new sports owners "come into new situations and act like they have all the answers to all the questions." A "key to the process is whether Ricketts has cultivated enough contacts in the game while waiting for the Tribune to ordain him" (Illinois DAILY HERALD, 8/24). In Chicago, Phil Rogers writes Ricketts, "if he's as smart as we think he is, will run from Tribune Co. ties, beginning with" Cubs Chair Crane Kenney. Ricketts would "do well to hire someone" like former Padres CEO Sandy Alderson and "stick with him" (CHICAGO TRIBUNE, 8/23). ESPN CHICAGO's Jon Greenberg wrote Ricketts should replace Kenney "with a baseball guy, an experienced front-office hand who could work" with GM Jim Hendry to "build a consistent winner from the farm system on up or eventually usurp him" (ESPN.com, 8/23). In Chicago, Paul Sullivan offered "HONEY-DO LIST: ESPN CHICAGO's Bruce Levine wrote the "ultimate goal for the new owners will be to find new ways to generate revenue," and a "big part of the future picture" is renovating Wrigley Field. Sources indicated that a $200-250M project will "create new bars and restaurants both in the ballpark itself as well as outside the park in a new building next to the existing structure." The new facility will be an "extension to the park all the way to Clark Street and Waveland Avenue, where parking lots now exist," and will house the team's front-office staff, "Cubs-based retail outlets as well as a projected area" for a Cubs HOF. In addition, a "multitiered parking structure where the present players' parking lot now exists also is promised to the city as part of the new renovation" (ESPN.com, 8/21). ESPN CHICAGO's Greenberg noted Cubs fans "need to know how Ricketts plans to add more talent while keeping ticket prices under control." Greenberg: "My guess is that the pricey seats, which top out at $100 for 'platinum games,' will see either a price hike or the addition of personal seat licenses, or probably both." The auctioning of "prime seats has delivered some extra revenue for the club, and could be expanded" (ESPN.com, 8/23).
A FEW WORDS OF ADVICE: In Chicago, Mary Ellen Podmolik wrote Ricketts should "go into the community, be accessible, state a goal and back that up with the team's behavior." The team "isn't owned by a corporation anymore, and after so many months of uncertainty it's time for fans to get a feel for the personalities and the perspectives of the Ricketts family." Blackhawks Chair Rocky Wirtz said, "Go out there and talk to people. The fans need to know the owner." Univ. of Oregon Warsaw Sports Marketing Center Managing Dir Paul Swangard: "Ownership can set the tone for the operation. Fans do care that the owners are, in essence, committed to the same thing that they are" (CHICAGO TRIBUNE, 8/23).
IMPACT ON CUBS: Chicago Tribune reporter Chris Kuc said, "I think that the Ricketts family has shown that they're going to spend the money and do what it takes" ("Chicago Tribune Live," CSN Chicago, 8/21). Cubs 1B Derrek Lee said he hoped the Ricketts are "in this to win and not just to say they own the Cubs, and they're willing to keep the payroll the way it is and we can do what we need to do." In Chicago, Gordon Wittenmyer noted Cubs management, including Hendry, this season have been "hamstrung in addressing" issues with the franchise "because of the ownership instability." Lee said of the sale, "I wish it came about a month earlier. I think Jim's hands were a little tied. Actually, I wish it came about eight months earlier" (CHICAGO SUN-TIMES, 8/22). Cubs LF Alfonso Soriano: "I'd like to meet my owner, my boss. Three years with no boss? Now we know what we can do. With a new owner, if he shows he wants to win, we can have a better team and we can play together more and have more shots (at winning)." Cubs manager Lou Piniella: "This thing here has been in a bit of a flux in the three years I've been here. And now things are heading in the right direction, I think it's very positive and very encouraging for this organization" (CHICAGO TRIBUNE, 8/23).
GONE WITH THE WIND: In Chicago, Dan McGrath wrote the sale relieves Chicago Tribune Sports Editor Mike Kellams of an "obstinate problem: how to provide fair, balanced and objective coverage of a team your parent company happens to own." McGrath served as Sports Editor from '98-'02, and he wrote, "'Covering' the team objectively hasn't been difficult." McGrath: "Colleagues past and present have followed the Cubs with a highly critical eye for the entire 28-year run of common ownership. ... It's the perception that we're soft on the Cubs or that we favor them over the White Sox -- that's what has given us all frequent heartburn." Former Tribune Sports Editor Tim Franklin said, "The larger issue was dealing with the public perception that the Tribune gave the Cubs favorable treatment. I heard complaints from senior people with the other pro teams in the city. More than that, though, I heard it from readers." But McGrath noted in his 12 years as an editor with the paper, there was "not a single instance of a top editor or a suit from the Tower suggesting we go easy on the Cubs or play down the White Sox" (CHICAGO TRIBUNE, 8/23). McGrath added, "It's been hard for us, the joint ownership thing. No matter what we did, we could not convince people that we were neutral as far as covering the two teams is concerned" ("Chicago Tribune Live," CSN Chicago, 8/21). A CHICAGO TRIBUNE editorial stated, "The fact that the Cubs and this newspaper have been corporate cousins is a constant vexation for Tribune sportswriters and editors: No matter the coverage, some readers ... will accuse the paper of rampant favoritism. ... In future years, we'll miss the cousins" (CHICAGO TRIBUNE, 8/23).

Only several weeks after Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) said it had five new children's pilots in the works, Amazon Studios announced Tuesday that it green-lit another pilot: Maker Shack Agency. The Hollywood Reporter reports the new live-action series comes from Ben Silverman's company, Electus Studios, and tells the story of a 13-year-old inventor named Angus Wolfe and his adventures with his two best friends — Jo and Merle — in Akron, Ohio.
If Amazon chooses to order a full series from the pilot, Maker Shack Agency will show the three teenagers solving their clients' problems with a new invention each episode. And it appears that Electus and the show's creators are taking the invention aspect of the show very seriously. Applied Minds, a research and development company, will be responsible for the design of the inventions on each episode.
Drew Buckley, chief operating officer and head of development at Electus, said in a statement, "We are incredibly excited for our first initiative with Amazon and we look forward to inspiring the next generation of makers." He continued, "With Maker Shack Agency, we hope to inspire kids to think about new and different ways to solve life's problems and to never be afraid of failure — as Wolfie always says, 'Fail Forward.'"

Axway will help Sanofi ensure that all divisions, subsidiaries and new acquisitions are able to efficiently and securely exchange and manage data in a way that is uniform globally
Singapore: Sanofi joined hands with Axway in order to streamline processes and transform its technology infrastructure into an efficient global network. Axway will help the life science giant to make the transformation possible, enabling their infrastructure and operations (I&O) to go from a siloed structure of 26 legacy data centers to just three data centers.
In addition to consolidating data centers, Sanofi extended their existing deployment of Axway Managed File Transfer (MFT), a comprehensive solution for both internal and external file transfers. With Axway MFT, Sanofi was able to ensure that all divisions, subsidiaries and new acquisitions were able to efficiently and securely exchange and manage data in a way that is uniform globally, while processing as many as 8,000 transfers each day. Not only did this increase efficiency across the organization, but it also reduced operational costs.
By relying on Axway technology for the evolution of its I&O, Sanofi is able to grow as a company without having to migrate to a completely new platform. All Axway Transfer CFT servers will be managed by a single entity per region, and Sanofi will use Axway Transfer CFT on all platforms and operating systems with exactly the same processes. This translates to administration savings because they are able to implement identical installation and processing procedures that any subsidiary can roll out on its own. In addition, Axway is able to provide a streamlined and efficient way to govern the flow of data not only through existing legacy infrastructure, but also for information exchanged through the cloud and mobile.
Mr Mario Del Pin, EAI ETL expert, Regional Service Delivery EMEA and Application Hosting Services, Global Infrastructure Services, Sanofi, said that, "Going from 26 data centers to three means that management costs will be reduced as well as expenditures related to personnel, telecommunications, storage, electricity and real estate. We have seen clear financial savings each year since the initiation of the I&O transformation. By 2014, we expect to achieve full payback with our financial savings equaling the financial investment."
Mr Bruno Cambounet, vice president, healthcare EMEA, Axway, said that, "For large global companies with numerous divisions, subsidiaries and external changing partners it can be challenging to streamline infrastructure and technology into a seamless system with uniformity across the board. Not only was Sanofi able to effectively evolve their company to meet these demands, but they were able to do it using an existing product instead of transitioning to a new one."

- For the Shadow priest mastery, see Shadow Orbs.
The Shadow Orb was a magical artifact created by the Orc Shadow Council of Gul'dan. Its ten pieces were found and pieced back together by Maiev Shadowsong in the Tomb of Sargeras in Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne expansion Night Elf Campaign.
One of its little known properties is that it will drive the bearer to pursue a goal to the point of madness. In the case of Gul'dan, he was driven to madness to obtain the Eye of Sargeras. In Maiev's case, she was driven to recapture Illidan at any cost.[1]
As Gul'dan was torn apart by the tomb's guardians, this special artifact was shattered into ten fragments that landed in different places in the tomb.

I totally agree, I'm just saying that the french and others don't have anything as good as our carriers.
I think it's time for the euro-weenies to swallow their pride, and ally with Israel on this one. The Israelis usually have the best intel on middle east situations, and they have a strong military.
For a change, we ought to keep our noses out of it. Anyway, by the time The One, or Dear Leader if you prefer, decides to do anything it will all be over.
If the Europeans are so concerned, let the EU do something. France could send in the Legion and fix the problem in a week. It only took a few hundred Legionnaires to run the Libyan army out of Chad a couple of decades ago.
This isn't our problem. Let Europe or the Arab League deal with it. Just once, I'd like to see America not offer to be the world's policeman.The poster formerly known as chuck58 on the old board.

you are right, the Europeans don't know how to build large warships anymore, the de Gaulle was the first large warship built in Europe since 1951.

03-14-2011, 05:13 PMWe need to address our own problems here at home. The Arabs are so appreciative of our help in Iraq and Afghanistan that 95% of the oil leases that they let out recently went to countries other than the US.:mad: Majors like Exxon and Chevron did not bid because the profit margins are slim and in some cases the companies will be lucky if they break even. Their compensation is based on production rather than price and is as low as a few bucks a barrel. This is the kind of thanks we get.
If the rebels win in Libya it will embolden the ones in Saudi and Kuwait.
The rebels did just as much dancing and partying as the current government in Libya did when they returned the murderous bastard responsible for the Pan Am Flight 103 crash. I feel sorry for none of them.Pffffffffffffffffffffff! Buh Bye Big Ears
We gain nothing by either side winning. The rebels are primitives who make the DUmpsters look rational. Qaddafi is a thug who has murdered Americans. If Qaddafi cuts and runs, we should hunt him down and kill him for Lockerbie. If he wins, we should napalm his victory speech and barbecue his family along with him. Either way, our first act after a new government is formed should be to demand that Abdelbaset al-Megrahi be turned over to the US. Failure to do so will result in our declaration of Libya as a np-breathe zone, followed by strict enforcement. We can do that without endangering any of our people.
Sic Hacer Pace, Para Bellum.

03-14-2011, 10:00 PMNobody really knows. That's a great big festering sore of a problem.
Qaddafi claims that they're al-Qaeda, and maybe he's right, but he's not the most trustworthy of folks out there. They haven't really said anything about what they want other than Qaddafi out. It could very well be a case of Stalin overthrowing Castro, which is why we need to have nothing to do with it from a physical, tactile sense.Olde-style, states' rights conservative. Ask if this concept confuses you.

California Santa Barbara
Ivory Tan White
We have been itching to share the adorableness of this couple for some time now, and we couldn't be more excited that today is finally the day. And although I would love to blabber on and on (as I tend to do) about just how amazing this couple is, and how they are most definitely going to live happily every after – I am going to instead pass that baton to the Groom. Because his description might go down in SMP history as the very best, and one look below and you'll know why. So thank you Edward Scott Foto for sending these two our way. And stay tuned to the main page for their wedding going later up today!
From the Groom… Sarah and Richard met under the infallible reign of King Arthur. Rich was a noble knight serving his king and the realm and Sarah was a queen married to the very king Richard served. But Richard loved her all the same. No wait, that's not them. Sarah and Rich were the son and daughter of two feuding houses in the city of Verona. One night while Sarah was on her balcony, Rich snuck up outside and hit on her in iambic pentameter. No, that's them either… Now I remember…
Sarah is chef and Richard a writer, living in Los Angeles… and they met the old fashioned way. Sarah went to high school with Rich's roommate and one day he looked her up on Facebook, thought she was super hot, and asked her on a date in an email that was way to bold for him to have ever said out loud to her in person. They dated for only 8 months and then one day Rich looked at her and saw forever.
On a trip home to North Carolina for his 10 year high school reunion with Sarah, he asked his mom for his grandmothers ring. She basically handed it to him in front of Sarah while they were at lunch. Luckily she said something along the lines of "Don't worry it's not a ring." Whether or not Sarah did, in fact, worry, is a mystery to this day. Seven days later he proposed to her at night, on the sand, in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, at the very same beach his grandmother visited the last day she was alive. For the first time in just over a decade, the ring would be back on the finger of a woman Rich loved very much. (Please note, the way he loves these two women is very different.)
And after that, the rest is history. Well not history, as much as the present. Presently Sarah and Rich have been engaged for 11 months and are set to be married at Calamigos Ranch in Malibu, California. Rich pretty much feels like the luckiest guy in the world and Sarah is pretty sure she'll be able to make this last forever. Edward Scott, who shot the engagement photos, will also be shooting the wedding and Richard has promised not to roll up his pants like he's in an episode of Dawson's Creek.

I'm back from Houston and all I can say is "Wow!". It was quite overwhelming and I took hundreds of photos. Six days were not enough.
The shopping looked like this:
From upstairs looking to the right.
Looking to the left.
More than 1500 vendors!
I took lots of photos of quilts too and will post some of them soon.
Right now I have an extremely messy house to clean and PILES of laundry to do.

Click here to see the Latest Offers from Triumph Motorcycles
You'll find a variety of fabric constructions in our range. Each developed to meet the performance requirements of our riders. Take Outlast®, its Temperature Regulating Technology is renowned worldwide as the product for temperature regulation. Outlast® technology, originally developed for NASA, utilises phase change materials (PCM) that absorb, store and release heat for optimal thermal comfort. For a ride that's not too hot, not too cold, just right™.
Then there's Superfabric®. This fabric is the perfect fusion of material, science and style and can be found on garments like the Navigator Jacket. We use it to give you higher levels of abrasion resistance, tear strength and stain resistance than standard base fabrics.
DuPont Teflon® fabric protector is an invisible finish that forms a protective barrier around fibres to deliver durable, long-lasting repellency against oil- and water-based stains, dust and dry oil - all without impacting on the look, touch, feel, colour and breathability of the fabric.
Cordura® fabrics can be made using 100% synthetic fibres or in blends with cotton, polyester or other fibres and are known for their durability and resistance to abrasions, tears and scuffs. 1000 denier Cordura® has an abrasion resistance equivalent even to 1.3mm competition-grade leather.
Fabric Technology Page
Just as we strive towards innovation and technology to create high quality textile jackets we have sourced globally the best quality leather in the construction of our leather jackets.
For the majority of our leather we look to Brazil, which is fast becoming the number one source for quality leather due to factors such as diet and the vast wide open spaces with limited barb wire fences.
In Triumph's sports riding product, our leather jackets have a more consistent grain structure and texture meaning great durability for all conditions. Our Classic leathers use a different process which adds to the heritage feel without compromising on quality. Whatever you are looking for in your next leather jacket or trousers, Triumph motorcycles will have a style that won't compromise on performance.
Exclusively developed as the latest in visibility clothing for motorcyclists. Triumph's Light Jacket and Vest have Integrated LED light technology, which can be easily controlled by a rechargeable battery system to give you greater levels of visibility.
Whereas high visibility reflective materials require a light source to illuminate the LEDs are, of course, a light source of their own. One that's also very effective even in daylight and works well with day-glow materials.

March Sadness For Griz After 81-34 Loss to Syracuse at NCAA Tournament
When your team has more turnovers than points..you know things have not gone well in a college basketball game.
When your team has more turnovers than points..you know things have not gone well in a college basketball game.
Brent Axe of Syracuse dot com has written a very interesting online article about the chances the 13th seed Montana Grizzlies have to beat the 4th seed Syracuse Orange.
Watch out for March Basketball scams.
On Monday, Montana Grizzly head basketball coach Wayne Tinkle was honored by the Big Sky Conference with his second straight "Coach of the Year" award.The Grizzlies enjoyed a rousing sendoff Tuesday morning on the way to San Jose for a Thursday game against Syracuse.
Update:Sunday, March 17 4:30 p.m.
At a packed house in the Press Box Restaurant, players, coaches and maroon-clad fans eagerly awaited Greg Gumbel on the CBS-TV NCAA Selection Sunday show just who the Grizzlies would play in the first round of the NCAA basketball tournament. The word came as Gumbel announced the second round in the East Regional to be held in San Jose, California. Number four seed Syracuse came up on the screen, and moments later the crowd erupted in cheers as the Grizzlies were introduced as the 13th seed.
Crowd at the Press Box
Thank you for registering for KGVO's NCAA Tournament Bracket Challenge! Now that the field has been announced, it's time to fill out your bracket...

The New York Jets 2012 season far more closely resembled a circus than a professional football team, and most of the guys in the locker room would be quick to admit it. After losing both of the team's superstar playmakers in wideout Santonio Holmes and cornerback Darrell Revis, coach Rex Ryan simply had no where else to turn.
Heck, we all know he didn't want to put Tim Tebow in.
All three of Ryan's quarterbacks last season, Mark Sanchez, Tebow and Greg McElroy, saw the field at some point in 2012. However, none got the job done. There will be plenty of passers available at No. 9-overall, but perhaps none worth taking.
What else might the Jets' brass be thinking as the 2013 NFL Draft approaches?
- Quarterback: Mark Sanchez is garbage, Greg McElroy is not an NFL-caliber starter, while Tim Tebow wasn't utilized for some strange reason. It's obvious that the Jets must move on from Sanchez, but his ridiculous contract won't allow that to happen. The new general manager will have to draft a quarterback this April.
- Right Tackle: Austin Howard was a human turnstile this past season; he's a major reason why McElroy took 11 sacks in Week 16. The Jets have to think about addressing this position in the first two rounds of the 2013 NFL Draft.
- Rush Linebacker: Calvin Pace couldn't get to the quarterback this season. Neither could Bryan Thomas. Aaron Maybin was cut. Someone like Dion Jordan has to be considered with the No. 9 pick this April.
- Two Safeties: Both LaRon Landry and Yeremiah Bell will be free agents. Landry told the media he won't take a discount to stay with the Jets, while Bell turns 35 in March.
- Running Back: Shonn Greene is a free agent, but he needed to be upgraded anyway. There will be plenty of running backs to choose from in Rounds 2-4 this April.

How was your experience?
The musical was excellent! The singing was top-rate and the special effects and dance numbers were better than expected. My only warning is that the "mezzanine" seats are really "balcony" seats at the Opera House and they are very, very high up. While the view is not obstructed it is difficult to see the faces.

Before Wanakee's first summer camp in 1962, Methodists held camp events at rented sites. Meanwhile, some inspired leaders who cared for children and youth searched New Hampshire for a camp site.
Meadowbrook Camp, once a horse camp for girls, was purchased by the New Hampshire Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church for $50,000 in 1962. The leaders were so convinced New Hampshire Methodists needed their own camp site, they rounded up enough supporters to secretly pledge to purchase the site if the Annual Conference did not.
The original tents and hogans on the hill were replaced with summer cabins and yurts beginning in the late 1980s and completed in the 1990s.
The Homestead Retreat, an adjacent parcel of land with a log home, was purchased in 1994. This house, now a winterized log cabin, began Wanakee's growth into year-round retreats.
In 2003 we accepted a Master Plan which committed us to a future of raising the quality of camper's experience through numerous facilities improvements including a lodge with adult friendly rooms, year-round dining hall, separate nurse's cabin, and upgraded facilities for campers and retreat guests.
You are accepted at Wanakee! Wanakee events are available to persons regardless of race, color, gender, age, national origin or religious affiliation. For handicapped accessibility and special needs, contact us.

Harry Reid Blasts Hayden For Saying Feinstein Is 'Too Emotional'
AP Photo / Susan Walsh
On the Senate floor Monday, Reid said that Hayden "condescendingly accused Sen. Dianne Feinstein of being too emotional."
"This woman has been an outstanding leader of that intelligence committee," Reid continued. "She has been fearless. She has been thorough and fair. And for this man to say that because she criticizes tactics led by General Hayden, that was torture, she's being too emotional. I don't think so. Does this sound like a person or a party that respects women?"

Mufferaw font family
Designed by Ray Larabie
Big Joe Mufferaw was a legendary Ottawa valley hero; a giant of a man renowned for his strength and simple, good nature. Mufferaw, the font, aspires to the same qualities; strong but friendly and uncomplicated. The well-defined but playful shapes have a slightly rustic bent and low x-heights give the illusion of weightiness without being squat or heavy. The wide letters are easy going at most sizes and have a comic book friendliness and appeal. Mufferaw is an large clan with 16 styles; chaperoned by Regular and Bold in 3 widths; condensed, regular and expanded plus italics for each. The Mufferaw kin-folk: * Shaded; slightly bashful but honest and hard-working kids. * 3D, the showy, look-at-me kid. * Outline; the quiet cousin who delivers when called on. * Distorted; there's one in every family. Mufferaw is suitable for so much more than just text. Use it for print work, signage, product labelling, logos, and more. Where ever you need a bold, uncomplicated and warm font, call on Big Joe Mufferaw .

Tried the Signature Pros with JDSLabs c421 and Leckerton UHA-6SMKII, both of them did a great job driving them but I give the Leckerton the 1up (bass seemed tighter and stage wider.) The Leckerton is my main portable amp now.
At home, the Signature Pros sound excellent with my Lehman BCL... some people have paired them with Tube amps though. Check into other Signature Pro threads for more info.

Ten sexy Babes all demanding intimacy?
"Oh, Honey! Don't stop! Wait! Is that you Gregg wearing a dress? Tater will be so mad!
I know a suppler to the Haunt Indistry who spent way too much phone time with a potential customer to find out he had been talking with a very young teenager,who might have to "borrow" Mommy's credit card from her purse to buy something.
My first question to someone needing information would be : Are you in the haunting field now?
Second question:"If you are into it already , what have you done? (Acted,Building?...)
Answering these truthfully clears the path to real communication and saves time for the one taking their time to answer questions asked.......
Some don't realize how many hours a week they will be doing things just for the haunt they want to have, if it is to actually be anything at all. What other time commitments are in your life already, Family? Wife? Your real job"
Or are you just making a haunted house as a place for you to meet new women, in the dark ,as you play-act that you are something of a totally different nature? OR showing your true nature hidden within a seasonal outburst of "Krazy?"
What ever "works",... "Works!"
Just remember you may have to successfully pass your State's Criminal Backround check to work or to remain working in the dark around other people ...
("Krazy" has to have controls on it)
Greg C., Jim W., and Tater all chimed in on this one?! You won't find a more interesting trifecta of world views than that, and I mean that as a compliment! I love the HW forums!
Try to get infected!
A piece of odd legality I was told about , which could affect someone buying their haunt property I discovered from my Lawyer I had at the time (He's a Judge now) He was figuring my taxes and he remarked that since I paid so little for my house that someday a taxing body might decide I was making too much money with my house for it's assessed value (low properrty tax then) and they could just take a wild guess and then add a percentage of what they would estimate my yearly income might be (income tax) and jack up my properrty tax!?
This struck me as a very unfair crock of chitt!
I looked at him and said, "Well, don't you take in a great deal of money every year from this small law office? Couldn't they do the same to you!?"
For some reason , he didn't like what I pointed out?
I mean, what does his Law office handle ? $900,000 a year? Out of a 20 by 80 foot single floor building!
Must be under-assessed!?
Maybe this is more an "Illinois" thing?
The thing that Really upset me about this is because from "Day-One" people in this small village think I am taking in a ton of money all because in October there would be maybe 300 people in line two nights of the entire year , waiting to see my house, and admission was $2.00 then.
Yes, some people are very poor at "Math!"
Then I'm open the rest of the year and the business drops way , way , down (For some reason?) I wonder why?
Because no matter what I said or did or no matter what ad or article ran in what newspaper or tv show blurbed about me, it is still a Seasonal business.........
On a completely professional level I would have to agree that the cheaper the dress, the higher the potential infection rate.
Not all at the same time, Jim, Tater and I have been at the same places and may be sporting similar parasites? I'm pretty sure Jim would be patient zero and maybe that is why my posts have more and more unneccessary adverbs.
Using some primitive timeline algorithms I can probably (given proper incentives) extrapelate when Tater will lose his girlish figure and become equally as dysfunctional.

Software Engineering for Computational Science and Engineering
Submissions due: 16 September 2013
Estimated Publication date: May/June 2014
Despite its importance, Computational Science & Engineering has historically attracted little attention from the software engineering (SE) community. Indeed, the development of CSE software differs significantly from the development of business information systems, from which many of the SE best practices, tools, and techniques have been drawn.
This special issue seeks to identify and understand some of the unique aspects of software development for CSE applications, falling into these categories:
- Scientific or engineering software applications — where the focus is on solving scientific or engineering problems. These applications range from large, parallel models and simulations of the physical world — typically utilizing high performance computing systems — to smaller scale simulations developed by a single scientist or engineer on a desktop machine.
- Applications that support scientific endeavors. Such applications include, but are not limited to, systems for managing and/or manipulation large amounts of data and systems that provide infrastructure for scientific or engineering applications.
We encourage submissions from members of both the SE and the CSE communities. Papers should address issues including, but not limited to:
- Case studies of software development processes used in CSE applications.
- Measures of software development productivity appropriate to CSE applications.
- Lessons learned from the development of CSE applications.
- Software engineering metrics and tool support for CSE applications.
- The use of empirical studies to better understand the environment, tools, languages, and processes used in CSE application development and how they might be improved.
- Verification and validation techniques specifically targeted for CSE applications.
- Software Engineering education in the CSE domain.
Contact the guest editors:
- Jeffrey Carver, University of Alabama at email@example.com
- Thomas Epperly, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory at email@example.com
Submission Guidelines
Authors are asked to submit high-quality original work that has neither appeared in nor is under consideration by other journals. All submissions will be peer-reviewed following standard journal practices. Manuscripts based on previously published conference papers must be extended substantially to include at least 30 percent new material. Manuscripts should be written in the active voice, should be no longer than 6,000 words (counting each standard figure and table as 250 words), and should follow the style and presentation guidelines of CiSE (see www.computer.org/cise/author for details).
Please submit your article using the online manuscript submission service at https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/cs-ieee. When uploading your article, select the appropriate special-issue title under the category "Manuscript Type." Also include complete contact information for all authors. If you have any questions about submitting your article, contact the peer review coordinator at email@example.com.

District Attorney Ben David issues statement on pardons
General Court of Justice
Fifth Prosecutorial District
Wilmington, NC 28402
December 31, 2012
To Members of the Media:
A prosecutor's job is to seek justice—nothing more and nothing less. That means we must pursue the truth and ensure a fair process to all concerned. Where we fail, so must the verdicts we obtain. Today Governor Perdue, through the clemency process, pardoned the Wilmington 10. My office will respect and abide by this decision.
I have never speculated about the guilt or innocence of these defendants. None of us currently in the District Attorney's office worked here, and many of us were not even alive, at the time of the trial. I am aware, however, that there are strong views, from good people on both sides, on the question of whether any or all of the members of the Wilmington 10 conspired to firebomb a grocery store. The best that I can say years later is I am not satisfied that we can know the truth about what happened.
Simply saying that we cannot know the truth, however, does not settle the question of whether justice was done. We must also ask whether the trial was fair. Where there is a flawed process, the outcome must also be questioned. Governor Perdue relied on new evidence and concluded that the trial prosecutor engaged in racial discrimination during jury selection, When jurors are excluded on the basis of race, the defendant and the entire community is denied a fair trial. No one, especially prosecutors, can justify an outcome where the Constitution has been violated.
The new evidence came to light through the work of historians who reviewed the remnants of the case file that my office gave to the Southern Historical Collection at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill nearly five years ago. To be effective, a courthouse must be both transparent and accountable. When no victim or case is harmed by disclosure to third parties, those of us tasked with searching for the truth should be unafraid of outside scrutiny, They truth should not stay buried, even when it is painful.
As prosecutors, the truth is our only client, For guilty defendants, the truth hurts. For the innocent, the truth will set them free. Sometimes the truth remains elusive. Where, as here, the process that was in place to search for the truth is determined to be so fundamentally flawed that we cannot know it, the verdict cannot stand the test of time. My job, as District Attorney, is to make sure that this does not happen again.
Benjamin R. David, District Attorney

Ben David. The same man who was in a movie done by the same person he turned the files over to. A "historian" named Tim Tyson. Buddies years before files were "found." If those notes are history, there are a ton of files that need to be turned over to somebody. Not Tim Tyson for the love of God. Sounds like something straight out of a movie. Oh wait, David was straight out of a movie. A Tim Tyson note, written under an alias ella baker "typically extras don't get paid….." Typically? What about in this case? Will the Wilmington journal look into that. As likely as Jay Stroud ever being a lawyer again. Will the Wilmington Journal do one interview, or look into that. Again as likely as Stroud being a lawyer again. Will the Wilmington Journal ever dive into Ben Chavis being fired by the NAACP for illegally paying off a woman for sexual harassment. Do i need to repeat myself? AS LIKELY AS STROUD BEING A LAWYER AGAIN! Once Chavis files to be paid for wrongful imprisonment, and you bet your…..tail he will, should that money go back to the NAACP he stole from? Once again, as likely as Stroud practicing law again.
Is justice served? Maybe? Is the ENTIRE TRUTH revealed? HELL NO!!!! Will the Wilmington Journal look into only one side of this. I'd bet anything. Half truths are not nearly the same as the entire truth.

Midnight Special
True Story,
Author's infos
Gender: N/A Age: N/A Location: N/A
Posted Mon 24th of October 2011
Because nurse, you promised me a treat at midnight!
Nurse Candice is beautiful, playful, sensitive and sensual. She is forty-five divorced and loves to play the field. Being single gives her the opportunity to do just about anything and she makes certain she gets a good fucking now and then. She works for a small community hospital on the day shift. About a month ago, she began to hate it, especially on days there were just too many nurses trying to be boss. She preferred a shift that ran like a well-oiled machine were everyone worked together. One weekend the Director of Nursing asked if she would work the night shift, she agreed, and found the experience enjoyable. Most of the time there was only one-nurse and one-or-two aides depending on the number of patients. She also knew that it gave her more time to take care of "all" the patient's needs. She then asked to change shifts, and soon found working 11-7, the night shift.
The floor consisted of the east wing, her unit, and a west wing and the two separated by closed doors. That night only three people were on the unit and all of them scheduled to go home sometime the following day. Nurse Candice was the only one scheduled, along with a nurse's aide who worked on the west wing; she was available for help, but only if called. Therefore, she had the floor all to herself and she loved that thought.
She always wore a regulation uniform that was either a two-piece skirt and blouse or a dress. Her touch to the ensemble was provocatively lingerie, which included garter belt and nylons. You see Nurse Candice had a naughty side and when able would give the patient an extra special treat. The surprise would normally consisted of a blowjob, a quick fuck, or fondling another woman's clit. This particular night she felt very naughty, so Nurse Candice wore crotchless panties with her outfit.
The doctor told her the man in room four will go home around ten A.M. tomorrow. They were just waiting for his wife to get a few days off before discharging him. The previous night she had promised him they would do something special around midnight tonight.
God he was handsome and every time she saw him, she felt a rush of desire. When she walked into his room, she could not help notice that he was fidgety and tried to hide his growing cock.
He ogled her, drooled, and just could not keep his hands to himself. He was always looking down her top and running his hand up under her skirt. Most of the time she let him too, after all her job was to make sure every patient was happy.
When she got off the elevator and walked to the nurse's station she found her friend Nurse Ken sitting there. He looked up glanced around then greeted her saying, "Well hello, Nurse Candice I envy you tonight. Your patients are all behaving themselves and I have not had one complaint all evening. I tucked them in and they are all asleep except the man in room four. He informed me that he was alright and just wanted to stay awake and finish watching the late movie."
He then gave her a quit report and then they counted the controlled medicines and he handed her the keys. He retrieved a coffee mug of the desk then turned gave her a winked and said, "Have a good night "Bullets" good-bye!"
She smiled and blushed then said, "Good-bye good looking!" She used to date Ken and every time they went out her nipple stuck out like little bullets, thus she acquired the nickname "Bullets." She proceeded to set up coffeemaker to make a fresh pot then went about making her rounds.
The patients in room one, two and three were quietly sleeping. She tapped lightly on the door of number four and then walked in. He was still awake and in her nurse tone she asked, "Why Mr. Johnston, why are you still awake? Don't you know its past your bedtime?"
He looked at her, grinned, and said, "Because Nurse Candice you said you would visit me at midnight and give me something special! So here it is midnight and I'm wide-awake. I have been thinking about you all day and I am ready to play with you, if you catch my drift. You know I like it when you wear your white stocking and spread your legs and entice me with your wet hot pink pussy. Nurse, I am your patient...please take care of me!"
She strutted over to the bed and stood with her hands on her hips and her legs spread wide. Then took a pad and pen from her pocket then started to put them on the bedside table and accidently-on-purpose-dropped the pen. She turned around and bent down to pick it up, and paused to make sure, he seen her naked bush. She then stood up as if nothing happened and proceeded to examine him. She checked his vitals and wrote them on the pad. She then leaned over and brushed up against his chest with her big tits knowing he can see down her top. She continued looking at his head, ears and neck. She palpated the areas, then began kissing him on the neck, and licking his ears. She watched out of the corner of her eye as the bulge in his pajama pants kept growing bigger.
She stepped back eyed him up and down then chuckled saying, "I think I am going to have to examine you more closely. I cannot find a thing wrong with you. Honey, let me go lock the door." She turned walked over, locked the door, and walked back to him. She spread her legs and seductively began to unbutton her dress.
His eyes almost popped out of his head when stood before him. She was so fucking sexy her bra did not conceal a damn thing and nothing covering her pussy, which was now glistening with moisture.
He tried to speak and all he could say was, "Ah-ahhh nurse you're making me hurt!"
Nurse Candice asked him, "Oh, tell me where it hurts?"
She walked over to the bed and turned down the bed linen. Then she picked up his arms and his legs one at a time, and asked him if they hurt. He nodded no each time. She sat on the bed, pulled his pants down below his waist, and pushed on each quadrant noting it did not invoke a pain response.
She licked her lips, tugged his pants down a little further, and smiled saying, "I hate to tell you baby, but I think you will survive….I found your problem!" She leaned over and planted a kiss on the head of his rock hard cock.
He gulped, and shouted, "Oooooh-it-hurts-oooooooh! Nurse, please make it stop hurting!"
She took her finger and touched his lips and whispered, "If you can keep your loud cries of pain down….I will relieve some of this pressure here," pointing to his cock, "as that is what is causing your pain."
Nurse Candice climbed on the bed making sure her cunt was within reach of his fingers. She leaned over him, placed her mouth around his cock, and sucked it entirely in her mouth in one gulp. She started sucking it gently and flicking the head of it with her tongue. She already tasted the sweet precum that had accumulated.
He began to tell her it was starting to feel better, but she might need to keep it up, to relieve all the pain. He thrust his hip at her as she slides her mouth up and down his throbbing member. He felt his balls churning and knew they were heavy, as he had not cum in two days. He knew if she kept this up, he would blow his load down her throat. He placed his right hand on her back then slid it slowly down and felt her quiver. He then traced her mound with his finger then slide between her wet lips, and teased her from clit to ass.
She moved, allowed him more access to her pussy, and gasped when he slid his finger across her swollen clit. God it felt so good. The more he teased her cunt the harder she sucked at his cock. She squeezed his balls and nibbled the head feeling the heat between the rises. She almost drops his cock when he pushed two fingers deep inside her.
She stopped sucking his cock long enough to say, "Oooooh keep it up honey! Just like that, please make me cum!"
He replied, "Oh-my-god I have dreamed about this moment all week! Damn your cunt feels so fucking good! You are one hot number and you know it. Aaaah…that is it….WOW, you sure know how to give head. Oh Nurse, can I please cum in you mouth?"
She wriggled her ass fucking his fingers as if they were his cock. Then with a low tone, only the two of them could hear she said, "You make me so hot! I have wanted you to touch me like this all week! Yes I want you to fill my mouth with your cum. I can't wait to swallow every bit of your sweet nectar!"
She continued sucking him hard feeling his veins pulsate and knew he would cum soon too.
He took his thumb and rubbed her clit as his fingers fucked her hot hole. She moved her hips wildly and began sucking him harder. Soon they were both moving to the beat of their own music.
She deep throated him hard then slid her finger down to the small part between his balls and ass. Where his g-spot was, and rubbed it hard.
That did it, he could not take more, and he bit his lip and went rigid. He tried not to shout too loud and said, "FUCK--I'M CUMMING!" God it felt so good! He was amazed she swallowed hard and did not miss a single drop.
He pulled his two fingers out of her hole and then shoved three in with hard fucking motion. Then took his other hand, rolled and pinched her clit hard.
She arched her back and rolled her head from side to side and she said, "Yesssss….aaaah….oh god…I'm there!"
She shuttered from head to toe with an earth-shattering climax that left her breathless for a moment. When she looked up at him, he too was breathing heavily. He took her in his arms and kissed her deep and passionately.
She opened her mouth and let his tongue dance with hers. Mmm, he tasted good she wished these few minutes with him could last forever.
Nevertheless, she knew she had to get back to work. She broke the kiss and whispered, "Did you like my midnight treat love!"
He took her hand, kissed it, and with his best southern drawl said, "I loved it darling! Now, come live with me let me carry you away from this dreadful place. We can ride off into the sunset on my trusty white stallion to my mansion!"
She blinked her eyes, and like a southern belle, answered, "Why Red Butler…..what would the neighbors say?"
She then turned around and proceeded to put her uniform back on. She blew him and kiss then told him goodnight and walked out of the room.
Nurse Candice sat at the nurse's station and thought about what just happened. She sighed then said, "I'm sure going to miss that man when he goes home. I just know his wife won't let him have me for his midnight snack!"

- Do you charge an administrative fee?
- Do you charge for phone calls or photo copies?
- Do you charge when the property is vacant?
- Do you do a 6 month inspection? How?
- Do you have licensed CPA's and Accountants to prepare and double check the owners and tenant statements?
- Do you increase rent every year?
- Do you have your own maintenance division? (This means they are making money off of maintenance and they have a limited supply of vendors/handymen to resolve your problem)
- Do you upcharge for maintenance? (if they own their own maintenance, they most certainly do)
- Do you show the property to anyone who calls? This is not good, there should be some due diligience prior. How many people, pets, etc.
- How long does it take to get my money, once the tenant pays?
- How long does it take to review and approve an application? (this is key, tenants are looking at multiple properties and will be lost quickly)
