Wirelessly posted I have a hard drive that I pulled from my old iMac that has my entire iPhoto library on it. It's living in a FireWire/USB external enclosure. The hard drive failed during a power surge of sorts. I don't care about any of the data on it except for that iPhoto library. I used to be able to get the drive to mount but now it won't even do that. Any thoughts or anyone know anyone in NJ that's good with recovery?
You could try one of the data recovery apps, such as: - DataRescue 3 - Disk Drill - Stellar Phoenix Data Recovery - Nice To Recover How these apps work: - You download the app for free - You run the free app on your problem drive - The app scans the problem drive, and if it finds recoverable files, it will present a list to you, but only permit you to recover ONE file - If you get this far, and further recovery looks possible, you then pay the registration fee, get a number, enter the registration, and then the program "goes to work" on the problem drive. ONE PROBLEM that you may have: If the drive is "unmountable" in the Finder, the data recovery app may not be able to "see" it. If it can't "see" it, it can't "get to" the drive to begin its work. There -is- a "workaround", but it's not for the feint-of-heart. It HAS worked for me personally when I thought all was lost. That solution is: RE-INITIALIZE the drive into a single partition (yes, you are reading that correctly). Then, "attack" the drive with your data recovery software. Why this works: If you re-initialize the drive, you "wipe out" the old (corrupted) directory and replace it with a "fresh" one. The drive will now mount on the desktop, even if it looks "empty". That's because the directory -is- empty. BUT.... .... when you re-initialize a drive, ONLY the directory gets replaced. The actual DATA is left "untouched" out on the sectors of the drive. WARNING: do not, repeat DO NOT choose to "zero out" the drive when you re-initialize -- this WILL "wipe the sectors clean" and there will be nothing left to recover. What happens next: The data recovery software is designed to "look around" the directory, and go right to the drive's sectors where it scavenges and then re-constructs the data it finds. This is why -- even with a re-initialized and empty directory -- the data recovery software will still "find" your old data on the drive. I can personally attest that this worked for me when nothing else would. In my case, it was a partition full of mp3 files. I got nearly all my old files back. IMPORTANT: You WILL lose all previous folder hierarchies, and you may lose many filenames as well. This is standard operating procedure with data recovery software -- remember that folder hierarchies and file names are constructs of the old directory, which is either corrupted or in this case gone altogether. Your consolation is that you got the files back!

Angels' bullpen falters in loss to Detroit
DETROIT – Before Friday's game, Scot Shields (one of the few retirees who choose suburban Detroit as their home) stopped by Comerica Park to visit his former team.
He should have stuck around. Angels manager Mike Scioscia would have loved to hand him the ball in the eighth inning Saturday night.
The Angels' chronic bullpen problems delivered another sharp, stabbing pain as they blew a one-run lead in the eighth inning of a 5-3 loss to the Detroit Tigers.
In immediate terms, the loss snapped a four-game winning streak. In the bigger picture, though, it was the Angels' 20th blown save this season (the most in the American League) including 10 in 41 games since the All-Star break, matching their total from the 86 games before the break. It was also the ninth loss charged to a reliever since the break, again matching the first-half total.
The question hanging in the air after each one of these losses becomes more pertinent each time – how many more of these can the Angels absorb and still make the playoffs?
"Shoot, we don't want to absorb any more of these," Angels catcher Bobby Wilson said. "We want to be winning these."
That hasn't happened very often this season. They have blown leads as big as eight runs, have a losing record in close games (24-28 in games decided by two runs or less) and have now lost seven games they led after seven innings. They have rallied to win when trailing after seven innings just once all season.
"Man, this is baseball. It's something we've got to deal with," Angels outfielder Torii Hunter said. "That's one thing about baseball – you have to stick it out, grind it out for all 27 outs."
For Scioscia, trying to get those 27 outs Saturday was like trying to cover a king-sized bed with a twin-bedsheet. Tug in any direction and you leave something exposed.
"Hopefully our bullpen is going to start to settle," Scioscia said of a unit that has posted a 6.00 ERA since the All-Star break. "There are some guys down there that have been throwing the ball well. ... This was just a residual situation from the Boston series where so many guys had to pitch."
None of those "guys down there that have been throwing the ball well" got into Saturday's game.
Closer Ernesto Frieri threw 43 pitches in the final two innings of the Angels' draining 14-13, 10-inning epic at Fenway Park Thursday night and was told he would not be used for the next two days. Veteran Scott Downs pitched in three of the first four games on this road trip and was unavailable Saturday as well. Kevin Jepsen – the only current member of the Angels' bullpen whose ERA since the break is lower than his ERA from the first half (most of which he spent in Triple-A) – was available for one inning only and Scioscia was saving him to pitch the ninth, stepping in for Frieri as closer.
That lack of depth became an issue when Andy Dirks blooped a broken-bat single over shortstop Erick Aybar to drive in a second run for the Tigers in the sixth inning. With the score 3-2 at that point, Scioscia opted to pull starter Dan Haren from the game.
"Oh my god – so close," said Aybar who got a quick jump on Dirks' hit and just missed making a diving catch in shallow left field. "It was going straight. Then it started sinking that way (towards the line and out of his reach).
"That happens. That's the game of baseball – good pitch, broken bat, base hit."
Happy as Haren might have been with his performance after two shaky starts and being skipped in the rotation, he wanted more.
"I really wish I could have got that last out," Haren said. "Sosh stuck with me. I felt I made a good pitch to Dirks. ... The result of the game could have been different if we could have caught that ball."
Jordan Walden replaced Haren and kept the lead intact into the seventh. But Scioscia pulled him after he gave up a one-out single, turning to the newest member of his bullpen circle of trust – right-hander Garrett Richards.
"He did alright last night," Scioscia snapped when asked if handing a one-run lead to a rookie with very little bullpen experience (seven appearances in the majors and minors combined) for the third consecutive night might have been a precarious choice.
Richards got out of the seventh. But Hunter had to run down Miguel Cabrera's drive at the wall in right-center field, nearly 370 feet from home plate, to start the eighth and Richards gave up hits to Prince Fielder and Dirks to put runners at the corners with two outs.
With no other attractive options – "it wasn't the night for four outs from him," Scioscia said of going to Jepsen early – Richards stayed in and gave up a two-run double down the left field line to Jhonny Peralta. LaTroy Hawkins came in at that point and gave up two more hits for another run.
"Every loss for us is a tough loss at this point," Haren said. "We're battling against another team trying to get in the playoffs. They're not going to lay down for us in the late innings.
"Every win and loss means so much. We have to put this behind us, come out tomorrow and try to win the series. If we're flying home having won five of six on this trip, then we've accomplished what we set out to do."

Antique Nine Palaces Melong Amulet
Alternative Views:
Currently Unavailable
Product Code:
This is very nice antique Tibetan melong amulet that displays the Nine Palaces, Eight Trigrams and 12 animals of the zodiac. This piece is unusual in having a peacock at the apex. The peacock is often associated with the transformation of poison into wisdom. In Asia the feathers of the peacock are also believed to bring protection. The reverse has faint traces of a lotus flower.
Tibetan Astrology like the Chinese system is organised according to the 12 Animal Signs. There is a legend that tells of Lord Buddha summoning all the animals to come to him before his parinirvana. It is said that 12 animals came to honour him. The Buddha rewarded each animal by naming a year after them in the order they arrived. First came the Rat, then the Ox, the Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Sheep, Monkey, Rooster, Dog and lastly the Pig.
Melong amulets are believed to ward off negativity, including protection from unfavourable planetary alignments.

Safety Tips: Skateboarding
Skateboarding's popularity has soared in the last few decades, and offshoots like longboarding and mountain-boarding are becoming more common.
But skateboarding also can be an easy way for kids to get hurt, particularly if they skate in the wrong place or don't wear protective gear. Scrapes and bruises are almost a fact of skateboarding life, and broken bones and sprains are also common.
To keep it safe while skateboarding, kids should follow these rules and safety tips.
Why Safety Is Important
It's easy for riders to lose their balance when riding a skateboard. And every fall brings the chance of injury. Some of those injuries are severe, and skateboarders have been killed by head injuries and collisions with cars.
Kids and beginners are the most likely to get hurt. More than half of skateboard injuries happen to people under the age of 15. A third happen to those who have been skateboarding less than a week.
Experienced skaters get hurt, too. As the difficulty of tricks increases, so does the risk of injury, and things like rocks and poor riding surfaces are always a threat.
Gear Guidelines
It may seem like all that's needed to start skateboarding is a board and an attitude — until the first wipeout. Asphalt, concrete, wood, and other common riding surfaces have one thing in common: none are soft. Helmets are a must for all skateboarders, and all beginners should use pads until they gain more experience.
Here are some of the things a rider will need to get started:
- Skateboard. Different boards do different things, and kids should have the right board for their activity. For mountain-boarding, a big board with knobby tires is best. In the park, the board should be considerably smaller. Make sure all the parts are in working order and check the board for cracks, sharp edges, damaged wheels, and loose parts before use.
- Helmet. Get a helmet that is specifically meant for skateboarding, not some other activity. Look for a sticker inside the helmet saying it meets the ASTM F1492 skateboard helmet standard. All helmets should have a strong strap and buckle, and the strap should be securely fastened and snug any time your child rides.
- Shoes. Skateboarding is tough on shoes, feet, and ankles. Make sure your child always wears closed shoes (not sandals). Spend a little extra money and get a good pair of shoes made with leather or suede. Make sure the soles are made of grippy gum rubber, not regular shoe rubber, and make sure the shoes fit properly.
- Pads. All beginners should start off with at least knee and elbow pads, which are recommended for riders of all levels. These should have a hard plastic shield and should not hinder your child's movements. All pads should be snug without constricting circulation.
- Other Gear. Hip pads, skateboard gloves, and padded jackets and shorts are all available and are a good idea for beginners. Mouthguards are good protection against concussions and broken teeth.
Where to Ride
Where to ride may be the single most important decision skateboarders make, as far as safety is concerned. Rough riding surfaces are responsible for more than half of skateboarding injuries.
Initial skating will probably be in the driveway or a skate park. Wherever your child rides, make sure the area is free of rocks, sticks, and other objects. Teach your child to look out for potentially dangerous cracks in the surface before riding, and make sure there is no chance of an encounter with a car.
- Skate parks. Kids should obey all rules governing use of the park and learn proper park etiquette before venturing into the park's more advanced features. Many skate parks have areas set aside for beginners. Kids should stick to this area or somewhere similarly easy when getting started.
- Empty pools. Kids who have permission to use an empty pool should get familiar with the pool's surface before riding. If the pool has fallen into disrepair, it might be more hazard than fun.
- Trails. When mountain-boarding, riders should inspect the trail before riding, looking for hazards like fallen trees.
The greatest threat to skateboarders is cars. Falls hurt, but they are rarely fatal. Collisions with large objects, however, can kill. Kids should never ride in the street.
Before Starting
The better shape kids are in, the better they'll be at all athletic activities, not just skateboarding. Encourage your kids to eat right and exercise regularly. They also should warm up and stretch before skating, especially their backs, legs and ankles.
Any place kids skate should be dry and cleared of anything that might interfere with the board's wheels.
Before they start skating, teach kids to be sure it's their turn and that no one is in the way. Collisions can happen if skaters don't communicate. And they should never ride with someone else on their skateboard. One rider per board, period.
While Riding
Kids will fall while skateboarding. That much is a given. To minimize injury, they should follow these tips:
- Learning how to fall properly can help reduce the chances of injury. Kids should know that when they start to lose their balance, crouching down will mean they won't have as far to fall. They also should learn to try to land on the fleshy parts of their body and roll rather than breaking a fall with their arms and hands.
- Bigger tricks and bigger features equal bigger injuries. Once kids have learned a couple of tricks, they should practice them a lot before moving on to more complicated maneuvers. They should leave the gnarly stuff to the experts until they're experienced enough to pull it off safely.
- All riders should know and practice skateboarder etiquette. At a crowded skate park, this means waiting their turn instead of jumping blindly into the bowl. This will not only keep fights from breaking out, it will also help them avoid colliding with other skaters.
Other Rules to Discuss
Young skateboarders should:
- Pay attention to local laws and know where they can and cannot skate.
- Never hitch a ride from a bicycle, car, truck, bus, or other vehicle.
- Never take chances. That rail they want to slide may look cool, but it's not worth knocked-out teeth. Be aware of all the consequences that could happen if things go wrong.
- Be honest about their abilities. Don't attempt tricks that are too advanced. This may well prevent embarrassment and an injury or two. They should practice what they know until it's mastered before moving on to something new.
- Talk to the people at the local skateboard shop where they buy gear. Not only can the staff give tips for getting the most out of the gear, they also usually know good, safe places to ride.
Skateboarding is great way for kids to have fun and feel a sense of accomplishment. There's nothing like mastering a new trick to feel a surge of self-confidence and pride. With lots of practice and common safety sense, someday they might be the ones doing the kick-flips and spins and owning the skate park!

Reminds me of the Alliance bus
News.com.au reports:
CLIVE Palmer has been busted breaking one of his policy promises, on his own campaign flyer.
His campaign flyers which promise to "process Australian resources in Australia" and to "create jobs and exports" are printed in China.
Read the fine print on the back of the campaign leaflet and you will find that they were printed in the DongCheng District in Beijing, by Palmer's company, Queensland Nickel which operates his Nickel and Cobalt mines.
This reminds me of the 1990s when the Alliance campaigned on banning second hand car imports from Japan, to protect NZ jobs.
We took delight in pointing out their campaign bus was a Japanese 2nd hand import. Anderton's response was along the lines of that was the only one they could afford. Never dawned on them that maybe that is why they shouldn't ban other people from buying them!

Manufacturer's Description
Visit Kokatat's Tropos Helix Dry Top page.
Retailers' Descriptions
Here's what other sites are saying:
Kokatat's new Women's Helix drytop, made with waterproof Tropos fabric, offers a degree of breathability you'd only expect from more expensive tops. The latex neck and wrist gaskets are covered by self-draining superstretch neoprene cuffs. Double-pull waist adjustment over a lightweight inner tunnel. Self draining zippered chest pocket with key lanyard.
Kokatat Women's Helix Kayak Drytop - With styling cues from the Rogue, and benefiting from the excellent value of Tropos waterproof/breathable fabric, the Helix is an excellent value in a drytop. A customized urethane coating is applied to the multi-ply nylon outer shell. This micro-porous coating contains millions of pores small enough to prevent water droplets from entering, while still allowing moisture vapor to escape to the outside of the garment. This provides the same level of waterproof protection paddlers have come to expect while greatly increasing the breathability of the garment. All seams are factory sealed, and latex gaskets at the neck and wrists further reduce water entry. Superstretch neoprene self-draining cuffs protect the gaskets from abrasion and UV exposure. The double-tunnel waist with dual adjustable closures will seal with either a spray skirt, or the Kokatat Whirlpool Bibs to create a dry system.
- Outdoorplay
Slide on the waterproof breathable Kokatat Women's TROPOS Helix Dry Top, and enjoy bone-dry boating from the put-in to the takeout. Rather than watering down a men's design, Kokatat constructed this kayak top to fit the bodies of female paddlers without sacrificing performance features. You'll find smooth-fitting neoprene gaskets, hook-and-loop closures at the neck and wrists, and ample adjustability built into the river-ready Helix.

What are their reasons? According to the anthropologist who has been keeping tabs, U.S. Americans* come for the cultural life, the night life, the cuisine, and the lower cost of living. Oddly, the warm sociability of the natives and the great climate was not mentioned, though I'd put them near the top as reasons for living here. Also, you can live well without a car! (For more details, see the original article or my comments in my post in my personal blog, Romancing Argentina.)
After eight years here, I'd say that my honeymoon with Argentina has paled quite a bit. Thus it was inspiring to be reminded of the good things that are easy to take for granted after a while. It is all too easy to get stuck on the "hedonic treadmill," adapting to what we've already experienced and then looking for new highs. Being reminded of the allure of "the Paris of South America" for others prompts me to look at my adopted home with new eyes again and appreciate its charms instead of just noting the warts.
Also, over the years it is also all to easy to forget the negatives of the home country, as we tend to remember mostly the good stuff (in the same kind of way that you find you've forgotten all the reasons you divorced your ex when your new partner starts to irk you). So maybe now and then we might do well to remind ourselves that home was not perfect by any means. (Of course we can also be blinded by love and miss some important cues in our new cultural romance, so I'd suggest aiming for a balanced perspective, but that's a story for another day.)
Long-term expats might do well to intentionally create ways to keep their positive attitude fresh. Listening to those who want to move here or who have just landed is one way (and by the way, nothing is more tiresome to them than a cynical old timer!). Being explicitly grateful for the good things in your adopted country is another, as is staying curious and looking for new things to appreciate instead of falling into a rut.
What are you doing to keep your attitude positive? As the wise ancient Greek Aeschylus put it: "Happiness is a choice that requires effort at times." And I say it is well worth it, considering the alternative!
~The Positive Expat
* since everyone who lives in the Americas is technically an American, as my Argentine friends have pointed out more than once, I'm using U.S. American to be clear.

Comments about Avery Side-Tab Legal Index Dividers:
THE tabs need to be a lot sturdier. When you grab the tab to turn to that section, the tab bends cause the reaction of letting go because tab doesn't feel strong enough. Also, had to put a rubberband around binder to hold some envelopes onto the binder, and the rubberband ripped the tab right off right before I was ready to present the binder to my client.

An FDA Guide to Choosing Medical TreatmentsJune 1995 A note from TheBody.com: The field of medicine is constantly evolving. As a result, parts of this article may be outdated. Please keep this in mind, and be sure to visit other parts of our site for more recent information! Medical treatments come in many shapes and sizes. There are "home remedies" shared among families and friends. There are prescription medicines, available only from a pharmacist, and only when ordered by a physician. There are over-the-counter drugs that you can buy -- almost anywhere -- without a doctor's order. Of growing interest and attention in recent years are so-called alternative treatments, not yet approved for sale because they are still undergoing scientific research to see if they really are safe and effective. And, of course, there are those "miracle" products sold through "back-of-the-magazine" ads and TV infomercials.
How can you tell which of these may really help treat your medical condition, and which will only make you worse off -- financially, physically, or both? Many advocates of unproven treatments and cures contend that people have the right to try whatever may offer them hope, even if others believe the remedy is worthless. This argument is especially compelling for people with AIDS or other life-threatening diseases with no known cure. Clinical TrialsIn a clinical trial, results observed in patients getting the treatment are compared with the results in similar patients receiving a different treatment or placebo (inactive) treatment. Preferably, neither patients nor researchers know who is receiving the therapy under study. To FDA, it doesn't matter whether the product or treatment is labeled alternative or falls under the auspices of mainstream American medical practice. (Mainstream American medicine essentially includes the practices and products the majority of medical doctors in this country follow and use.) It must meet the agency's safety and effectiveness criteria before being allowed on the market. In addition, just because something is undergoing a clinical trial doesn't mean it works or FDA considers it to be a proven therapy, says Donald Pohl, of FDA's Office of AIDS and Special Health Issues. "You can't jump to that conclusion," he says. A trial can fail to prove that the product is effective, he explains. And that's not just true for alternative products. Even when the major drug companies sponsor clinical trials for mainstream products, only a small fraction are proven safe and effective. Many people with serious illnesses are unable to find a cure, or even temporary relief, from the available mainstream treatments that have been rigorously studied and proven safe and effective. For many conditions, such as arthritis or even cancer, what's effective for one patient may not help another. Real Alternatives"It is best not to abandon conventional therapy when there is a known response [in the effectiveness of that therapy]," says Joseph Jacobs, M.D., former director of the National Institutes of Health's Office of Alternative Medicine, which was established in October 1992. As an example he cites childhood leukemia, which has an 80 percent cure rate with conventional therapy. But what if conventional therapy holds little promise? Many physicians believe it is not unreasonable for someone in the last stages of an incurable cancer to try something unproven. But, for example, if a woman with an early stage of breast cancer wanted to try shark cartilage (an unproven treatment that may inhibit the growth of cancer tumors, currently undergoing clinical trials), those same doctors would probably say, "Don't do it," because there are so many effective conventional treatments. Jacobs warns that, "If an alternative practitioner does not want to work with a regular doctor, then he's suspect." Alternative medicine is often described as any medical practice or intervention that:
According to a study in the Jan. 28, 1993, New England Journal of Medicine, 1 in 3 patients used alternative therapy in 1990. More than 80 percent of those who use alternative therapies used conventional medicine at the same time, but did not tell their doctors about the alternative treatments. The study's authors concluded this lack of communication between doctors and patients "is not in the best interest of the patients, since the use of unconventional therapy, especially if it is totally unsupervised, may be harmful." The study concluded that medical doctors should ask their patients about any use of unconventional treatment as part of a medical history. Many doctors are interested in learning more about alternative therapies, according to Brian Berman, M.D., a family practitioner with the University of Maryland School of Medicine in Baltimore. Berman says his own interest began when "I found that I wasn't getting all the results that I would have liked with conventional medicine, especially in patients with chronic diseases. "What I've found at the University of Maryland is a healthy skepticism among my colleagues, but a real willingness to collaborate. We have a lot of people from different departments who are saying, let's see how we can develop scientifically rigorous studies that are also sensitive to the particular therapies that we're working with." Anyone who wants to be treated with an alternative therapy should try to do so through participation in a clinical trial. Clinical trials are regulated by FDA and provide safeguards to protect patients, such as monitoring of adverse reactions. In fact, FDA is interested in assisting investigators who want to study alternative therapies under carefully controlled clinical trials. Some of the alternative therapies currently under study with grants from NIH include:
While these alternative therapies are the subject of scientifically valid research, it's important to remember that at this time their safety and effectiveness are still unproven. Avoiding FraudFDA defines health fraud as the promotion, advertisement, distribution, or sale of articles, intended for human or animal use, that are represented as being effective to diagnose, prevent, cure, treat, or mitigate disease (or other conditions), or provide a beneficial effect on health, but which have not been scientifically proven safe and effective for such purposes. Such practices may be deliberately deceptive, or done without adequate knowledge or understanding of the article. Health fraud costs Americans an estimated $30 billion a year. However, the costs are not just economic, according to John Renner, M.D., a Kansas City-based champion of quality health care for the elderly. "The hidden costs -- death, disability -- are unbelievable," he says. To combat health fraud, FDA established its National Health Fraud Unit in 1988. The unit works with the National Association of Attorneys General and the Association of Food and Drug Officials to coordinate federal, state and local regulatory actions against specific health frauds. Regulatory actions may be necessary in many cases because products that have not been shown to be safe and effective pose potential hazards for consumers both directly and indirectly. The agency's priorities for regulatory action depend on the situation; direct risks to health come first. Unproven products cause direct health hazards when their use results in injuries or adverse reactions. For example, a medical device called the InnerQuest Brain Wave Synchronizer was promoted to alter brain waves and relieve stress. It consisted of an audio cassette and eyeglasses that emitted sounds and flashing lights. It caused epileptic seizures in some users. As a result of a court order requested by FDA, 78 cartons of the devices, valued at $200,000, were seized by U.S. marshals and destroyed in June 1993. Indirectly harmful products are those that do not themselves cause injury, but may lead people to delay or reject proven remedies, possibly worsening their condition. For example, if cancer patients reject proven drug therapies in favor of unproven ones and the unproven ones turn out not to work, their disease may advance beyond the point where proven therapies can help. "What you see out there is the promotion of products claiming to cure or prevent AIDS, multiple sclerosis, cancer, and a list of other diseases that goes on and on," says Joel Aronson, director of FDA's Health Fraud Staff, in the agency's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research. For example, he says, several skin cream products promise to prevent transmission of HIV (the virus that causes AIDS) and herpes viruses. They are promoted especially to health-care workers. Many of the creams contain antibacterial ingredients but, "there is no substantiation at all on whether or not [the skin creams] work" against HIV, says Aronson. FDA has warned the manufacturers of these creams to stop the misleading promotions. People at RiskTeenagers and the elderly are two prime targets for health fraud promoters. Teenagers concerned about their appearance and susceptible to peer pressure may fall for such products as fraudulent diet pills, breast developers, and muscle-building pills. Older Americans may be especially vulnerable to health fraud because approximately 80 percent of them have at least one chronic health problem, according to Renner. Many of these problems, such as arthritis, have no cure and, for some people, no effective treatment. He says their pain and disability lead to despair, making them excellent targets for deception. ArthritisAlthough there is no cure for arthritis, the symptoms may come and go with no explanation. According to the Arthritis Foundation, "You may think a new remedy worked because you took it when your symptoms were going away." Some commonly touted unproven treatments for arthritis are harmful, according to the foundation, including snake venom and DMSO (or dimethyl sulfoxide), an industrial solvent similar to turpentine. FDA has approved a sterile form of DMSO called Rimso-50, which is administered directly into the bladder for treatment of a rare bladder condition called interstitial cystitis. However, the DMSO sold to arthritis sufferers may contain bacterial toxins. DMSO is readily absorbed through the skin into the bloodstream, and these toxins enter the bloodstream along with it. It can be especially dangerous if used as an enema, as some of its promoters recommend. Treatments the foundation considers harmless but ineffective include copper bracelets, mineral springs, and spas. Cancer and AIDSCancer treatment is complicated because in some types of cancer there are no symptoms, and in other types symptoms may disappear by themselves, at least temporarily. Use of an unconventional treatment coinciding with remission (lessening of symptoms) could be simply coincidental. There's no way of knowing, without a controlled clinical trial, what effect the treatment had on the outcome. The danger comes when this false security causes patients to forgo approved treatment that has shown real benefit. Some unapproved cancer treatments not only have no proven benefits, they have actually been proven dangerous. These include Laetrile, which may cause cyanide poisoning and has been found ineffective in clinical trials, and coffee enemas, which, when used excessively, have killed patients. (See "Hope or Hoax? Unproven Cancer Treatments" in the March 1992 FDA Consumer.) Ozone generators, which produce a toxic form of oxygen gas, have been touted as being able to cure AIDS. To date this is still unproven, and FDA considers ozone to be an unapproved drug and these generators to be unapproved medical devices. At least three deaths have been connected to the use of these generators. Four British citizens were indicted in 1991 for selling fraudulent ozone generators in the United States. Two of the defendants fled to Great Britain, but the other two pleaded guilty and served time in U.S. federal prisons. The bottom line in deciding whether a certain treatment you've read or heard about might be right for you: Talk to your doctor. And keep in mind the old adage: If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
How to Approach Alternative TherapiesThe NIH Office of Alternative Medicine recommends the following before getting involved in any alternative therapy:
For everyone -- consumers, physicians and other health-care providers, and government regulators -- FDA has the same advice when it comes to weeding out the hopeless from the hopeful: Be open-minded, but don't fall into the abyss of accepting anything at all. For there are -- as there have been for centuries -- countless products that are nothing more than fraud. Tip-Offs to Rip-OffsNew health frauds pop up all the time, but the promoters usually fall back on the same old clichs and tricks to gain your trust and get your money. According to FDA, some red flags to watch out for include:
Medical GuidesWhether looking for an alternative therapy or checking the legitimacy of something you've heard about, some of the best sources are advocacy groups, including local patient support groups. Those groups include: American Cancer Society
Arthritis Foundation
National Multiple Sclerosis Society
HIV/AIDS Treatment Information Service
Federal government resources on health fraud and alternative medicine are:FDA
Office of Alternative Medicine/NIH Information Center
U.S. Postal Inspection Service
Federal Trade Commission
Other agencies that may have information and offer assistance include local Better Business Bureaus, state and municipal consumer affairs offices, and state attorneys general offices.

iPhone hacker comex publishes JailbreakMe exploit code
So you know that JailbreakMe site that let's you jailbreak your iOS device? Well, Apple published an iPhone and iPad update today to plug that hole, and right after, iPhone hacker "comex" published the source code of the JailbreakMe site. Why is this relevant? Well, now any would-be evildoer has access to that exploit and can thusly infect any pre-iOS 4.0.2 device using the same exploit. So you have two options here if you want to stay safe. You can update to 4.0.2, or if you want to stay jailbroken, download the PDF Warning tool. One interesting thing in all this is that if you are running the original iPhone or iPod touch, Apple doesn't have a fix for you. So you are essentially stuck with a vulnerable device unless you jailbreak it. How's that for backwards?

gnome's console is unaware of xterm aliases
Hi everyone !
anyone to help me find out about why gnome's console is unaware of my .profile .. that is .. aliases work on xterm/fvwm but not on console/gnome .. or even xterm when called from gnome console .. of course the same occurs in konsole/kde .. any specific ***rc that I need to have at home or .. no indicative files in .gnome2/ and .gnome2_private/ .. Thanks for showing me the light .. |
Sounds like the Gnome terminal isn't triggering a login shell.
From ksh(1): Code:
-l Login shell. If the basename the shell is called with (i.e. argv[0]) starts with `-' or if this option is used, the shell is assumed to be a login shell and the shell reads and executes the contents of /etc/profile and $HOME/.profile if they exist and are readable. Code:
-ls This option indicates that the shell that is started in the xterm window will be a login shell (i.e., the first character of argv[0] will be a dash, indicating to the shell that it should read the user's .login or .profile).
Many thanks to the forum regulars who put time and effort into helping others solve their problems. |
The solution is simple:
$ cat .Xdefaults XTerm*loginShell:true
You don't need to be a genius to debug a pf.conf firewall ruleset, you just need the guts to run tcpdump |
Does this really help Gnome Terminal?
Many thanks to the forum regulars who put time and effort into helping others solve their problems. |
Hi J65nko ! .. it does dwell in my .Xdefaults ..
Hi Backrow ! it doesn't seem to .. hence my question about : .gnome2/ & .gnome2_private/ |
The gnome terminal has a gui option under 'edit' in the title bar. You can check a box to set the login shell.
Get to Know Gnome Terminal |
Thank you shep !! It does work now ..
Terminal > edit > profile preferences > title and command > check 'Run command as a login shell' |

Yep. It was a KB exclusive I think. They also had a red if I'm not mistaken.
Up, up, and OKAAAAY!!!
That is a yellow clone listed as orange, probably to get more bids or the seller is a bit color blind?
Correct on both.Originally Posted by Slicker

text: Truck Nuts to be Banned: UpdateWes Siler1/17/08 12:15pmFiled to: Offbeat NewsPoliticsTruck Nuts87EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalinkOn Tuesday, we told you that a State Delegate in Virginia was making plans to ban truck nuts. Now, details have emerged. Lionel Spruill introduced the bill on Tuesday under the pretext of safety, claiming that replicas of genitalia could distract drivers, causing accidents. He would like to see the display of truck nuts made a misdemeanor, punishable with a $250 fine.AdvertisementSpruill decided to pursue the ban after a constituent complained about his young daughter seeing them. According to the Associated Press, Spruill said, "Sir, I'm going to be a laughingstock, but I'm going to do it."He introduced the bill to the Virginia Assembly on Tuesday, undeterred by their past experience trying to ban baggy trousers, saying he planned to bring a set of the plastic nuts with him to prove his point, "I'm going to bring them out here and show them to you till they tell me to stop."

Volumes of Cross-Sectional Solids (part 2 of 4), Lesson Plan, Warm-up and Homework Review.docx - Section 2: Warm-up and Homework Review
Volumes of Cross-Sectional Solids (part 2 of 4)
Lesson 10 of 14
Objective: SWBAT write variable expressions for areas of basic geometric shapes; SWBAT compute volumes of cross-sectional solids.
Big Idea: No matter how you slice it, finding volumes of cross-sectional solids is a blast! Today we continue with volumes of cross-sectional solids.
Setting the Stage
The Bottle Project
Prior to continuing with cross-sectional solids, we first introduce the bottle project. Distribute the Bottle project Description Sheet and centimeter graph paper, then briefly discuss how both solids of revolution and cross-sectional solids can be used to model many bottles and estimate their volumes. Also note for students that a primary part of this project is in discussing possible sources of error (DO NOT SHOW TO STUDENTS) in students' estimates, because for a variety of reasons students will not obtain the exact volumes as listed on the labels. I usually make the project due sometime after two weekends have passed, but not the 3rd weekend; this allows students some flexibility in when they work on the project without making its due date too far away from our study of these topics.
Cross-Sectional Solids Examples Sheet
Distribute the Cross-Sectional Solids Examples Sheet, which like the Solids of Revolution sheet gives students several different examples integrating various cross-sectional shapes with respect to x and y. Briefly discuss each example, observe that the same process was repeated in each example, and note how the pictures were sketched and labeled prior to setting up each integral.

Interview with Sauber's Kamui Kobayashi
1. | P. Maldonado | 1:39:09.145 |
2. | F. Alonso | +3.195 |
3. | K. Raikkonen | +3.884 |
17 May 2012 – Spain saw Kamui Kobayashi rack up Sauber's second best race finish of the 2012 F1 season, coming home in a highly respectable fifth place at the Circuit de Catalunya. The result has only been matched this season by team-mate Sergio Pérez, when the Mexican just missed out on the Malaysian Grand Prix victory to Fernando Alonso.
The most important thing for us was to have confirmation that our new aero package was working well. It is definitely a step forward. After I had a difficult qualifying because of a hydraulic problem, I had to start ninth. I think the race performance as such was better than my fifth place suggests.
Traffic in the race makes it more difficult to handle the tyres. If you looked at Lewis Hamilton, who was fastest in qualifying, you could also see it wasn't an easy job for him to improve positions in the race traffic after he was forced to start last on the grid. Overall I am very happy and proud of what a great job the guys back in the factory did to further develop the car and, of course, what the crew at the race track did.
Does the Sauber C31-Ferrari's new aero package deliver what you expected?
Yes, I think we have improved in the areas we wanted to. The car is better balanced through the corners now. In terms of stability I would say it is about the same, but stability always depends a lot on the track conditions.
You had two super overtaking manoeuvres in Spain. Have you regained confidence in the car?
I think so, I definitely had confidence in the car in Barcelona when overtaking. I also feel with the update we can now handle the tyre management better during the race. We had been a bit weak on that side before.
How do you think the car can perform on the narrow street circuit of Monaco?
It obviously provides an entirely different challenge than that of the Circuit de Catalunya. In Monaco the car is bouncing on bumps, you have understeer and oversteer when you are driving on the limit and the track doesn't forgive any mistakes. I think our car will be better in Monaco than it was last year because it has improved in slow corners. In 2011 I finished fifth, so the target should be to finish higher up this year. However, even if you are given the best car in Monaco, in the end a lot is down to the driver to get the ultimate tenths of a second out of it.
You will be attending the Champions League final of Chelsea FC versus Bayern Munich on Saturday. Have you ever been to a stadium for such a big match?
No, I have never seen a match of that level. I only attended some games of lower leagues in Italy. Normally I am not a big fan of watching other sports, as I would rather concentrate on my own training. But now after I have decided to be a supporter of Chelsea FC I am very much looking forward to seeing them play in the stadium. This is professional sport at the highest level and I am getting very excited about going to Munich on Saturday!
What are your targets for the forthcoming races?
We have seen five different winners in five races. So you could say almost everything is possible this year. I believe we have a good car and good chances for good results. The final outcome always depends on a lot of factors. But what you have to do for success is to get every small thing perfectly right over the entire weekend: and that is what I'm aiming at.

Interesting. The only reason that show didn't do well is because it aired in the evenings. Cartoon Network could do a killer Saturday morning block, with TF Animated and a continuation of He-Man, along with popular properties none of us care about (like Ben-10 or whatever), and maybe even throw in reruns of the old GIJoe cartoon to boost the popularity of that line with kids.
It also would've helped the show with kids if they ever had the chance to buy anyone other than He-Man, Arctic He-Man, Jungle He-Man, Samurai He-Man, and the occasional Neon Day-Glo Skeletor Repaint.

From 21st until 25th May 2008 the first mini-meeting was held in Kleinwalsertal in Austria. Under the topic "at:de border – approaches to sustainable landscaping" around 45 students from 19 countries participated.
The interesting and unusual location of Kleinwalsertal within the Alps helped to set the scene for reflections about borders in the landscape and our professional practice. Geographically and politically Austrian, but economically German and only accessible from Germany, this particular valley has experienced an interesting and challenging history as it has developed over the past centuries. It has evolved from a primarily agricultural landscape into one orientated around tourism and recreation, experiencing increased house building and development pressures as it has become the second-largest tourist destination of Austria.
The second day introduced participants to the spatial and planning issues within the valley
The meeting ended with an exhibition of participants work in the Town hall where experiences of their journey to the meeting and the borders they crossed/experienced (whether spatial, political, personal etc). The exhibition consisted of two banners, each 7 per 1 meter, which were filled with the participants" border experiences during the first two evenings of the meetings.
The final day focused upon disciplinary borders and through the participation of professionals working within the fields of Geography, Urban Planning, Ecology, Art, Psychology and Architecture participants were encouraged to look at the varied challenges that face Kleinwalsertal through the unique approaches offered by professionals. As participants took part in discussions prompted by a multidisciplinary backdrop issues were highlighted in regards to collaboration and potential borders between the disciplines within the professional world and how these may be overcome through increased understanding of each other"s skills and roles and how such an understanding can encourage a more fulfilling, productive and holistic approach to projects and challenges.and the settlements effected by growth and development. On an excursion to Bregenz, Vorarlberg the group passed the transcended border Austria/Germany and experienced the unique landscape of Bregenzerwald. After being introduced to spatial planning implications in the Rhine valley, which are met by an interdisciplinary, participatory planning approach, the group proceeded to Bregenz to exercise a series of "flashmobs" and installations in the city-centre. Participants were encouraged to observe the reactions of members of the public as they were faced with installations that were unusual and encouraged certain patterns of movement and reactions. As on each day the course of the day was later reflected in a plenary group discussion in our alpine hut back in Kleinwalsertal.
Different characteristics of "Borders" have been approached from three distinct angles over the main 3 days of the meeting. The first day was started with a keynote lecture by architect and philosopher Christa Kamleithner who introduced the historical development of borders and their current transcending into regional entities. The afternoon focused upon personal borders where participants spent the day carrying out a series of tasks and activities which helped to familiarize them with the valley alongside getting to know the other participants and pushing their own personal limits. Activities progressed from climbing and abseiling to finish with a 30m bridge freefall/abseil.

After Justin Bieber left the Hotel Le Meurice in Paris, Monday, a report made the rounds saying he had actually been kicked out. A French TV and radio personality wrote that Bieber was booted from the hotel due to his attitude, as well as the "nuisance caused by the presence of his fans around the building."
According to Bieber's rep, that's not the real story. In a statement to Us Weekly, the rep says Justin made the call to leave the hotel, explaining, "He decided to transfer to the Mandarin Oriental when there wasn't enough security to control the crowds." The rep also notes the lack of a parking garage or an underground entrance for the "Beauty and a Beat" singer as reasons for the switch.
A spokesperson for the hotel backs up Bieber's story, saying, "This was a decision made by him or his team. We do not turn people away." Bieber's trip through Europe has been a strange one, to say the least. In recent weeks he has passed out on stage, leading to him being briefly hospitalized, and attempted to assault a photographer. He's also been very candid on social media, posting rants aimed at the paparazzi, as well as one that slammed Lindsay Lohan.

Redo Your Bathroom For Under $500
Bathroom For Under $500
Page 2 of 2
Chiasso Zena Tealight Tray
You probably don't really care about putting candles all over your bathroom, but trust us: She will find it incredibly romantic. It may look slightly bizarre if you have candles everywhere, not to mention the fact that this idea would be impractical if you don't actually use them yourself, so when you redo your bathroom invest in just one candle tray that you can display prominently. Chiasso's Zena Tealight Tray comes as one solid piece, so it won't look out of place in your masculine bathroom. Cost: $48
Urban Outfitters Peel Door Hook
Invaluable for keeping your clothes off the floor and avoiding a messy pile of dirty laundry from accumulating, a door hook — like this one from Urban Outfitters — requires no assembly and slides easily onto the back of your bathroom door. The nickel color is also in keeping with the other metallic accents you've got going on in the room. Cost: $18.00
Ikea Jondal Mirror
If you have the space, hanging a full-length mirror in your bathroom is a good move. Ikea's Jondal mirror resists moisture, so it's a good choice for a room that tends to be a bit damp. You'll use it to check yourself out, of course, but you'll realize what a genius you are for installing it once you have some female company. Cost: $49.99
Target Integrity Towel Set
An important thing to do when you redo your bathroom is to get rid of the old towels your mom gave you when you moved out, and to purchase a set of fluffy towels to complement the colors of your new and improved bathroom. A matching set of two large towels, two hand towels and two face cloths is only $29.99 from Target. You don't necessarily have to throw out all your old towels, though. Instead, place your new ones in the Kullen rack where everyone can see them and store your other ones in a cabinet where they're not visible. Cost: $29.99
Bed Bath and Beyond Waterpik Showerhead
Changing your showerhead is a relatively straightforward procedure. This chrome Waterpik showerhead from Bed Bath & Beyond has eight adjustable settings, including a full-body spray for invigorating solo showers and a massaging pulse for when you've got company. You'll also save on your utility bill since the flow regulator is designed to conserve water without affecting the quality of your shower. Bonus: When she comes over, you can dismount this showerhead from the wall and use it wherever you like.Cost: $39.99
Casual Home Bath Rug
Add another shot of color to your bathroom with a punchy bathmat to prevent it from looking too black and white. This bath rug from Casual Home is machine washable, so just throw it in the machine once every two weeks to keep it from getting grungy, ensuring it looks new and feels soft. Cost: $12.99
Body Shop Uplifting Body Wash
The final thing your bathroom needs — something that's more for her than for you — is a girl-friendly body wash. Try something from The Body Shop, like this invigorating aromatherapy body wash, and she'll be over the moon. It's also a lot more enjoyable to lather each other up with a product that smells great and comes in nice packaging than to use your regular heavily cologned soap. Cost: $13.00
the perfect loo
The total cost to redo your bathroom is $399.95, meaning you'll have $100.00 left over by the time you're done to contribute to your wining and dining fund. With a bathroom that looks this good, it won't be long before the shower isn't the only thing making this room steamy.Total cost: $399.95

The situation:
The desk clerk was not able to find my Marriott Rewards number when I checked in. I didn't have it with me.
Today, I simply wanted to add my Marriott Rewardsnumber to a recent stay (3 nights ago).
Called hotel. Can not do locally after 24 hours from check out.
Called call center and was given wrong number to Marriott Rewards Customer Support.
Called correct number.
This is unacceptable and does not inspire my brand loyalty... at all.
I hear ya...... Just an FYI..This site is is not monitored on a regular basis by Marriott employees. If you were hoping for a quick response from someone at Marriott, that crazy holding support line is most likely a better bet. They should be able to help. If you have your receipt and/or confirmation number, that will help, too. Good Luck
Send a message to customer service and they might help this situation get sorted out. But, my guess would be that you will have to send the hotel receipt now to get this done. Give customer service a try at:
One other thing to try is to just submit it via the Marriott website:
