ThinkProgress cites a new report from Citizens for Tax Justice that shows that not only did Facebook not pay any state or federal income taxes last year, it actually got almost half a billion dollars back from the federal government by using a tax loophole while paying their executives huge amounts of money.
Earlier this month, the Facebook Inc. released its first "10-K" annual financial report since going public last year. Hidden in the report's footnotes is an amazing admission: despite $1.1 billion in U.S. profits in 2012, Facebook did not pay even a dime in federal and state income taxes.
Instead, Facebook says it will receive net tax refunds totaling $429 million.
Facebook's income tax refunds stem from the company's use of a single tax break, the tax deductibility of executive stock options. That tax break reduced Facebook's federal and state income taxes by $1,033 million in 2012, including refunds of earlier years' taxes of $451 million.
And it will be able to keep doing this for another $3 billion in tax deductions in in future years. A billion in profit and taxpayers are giving them money back instead of collecting taxes. Welcome to the oligarchy.

The Phillies' starting rotation is featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated's baseball preview.
Not much of a surprise, but you might have been hoping to avoid the cover jinx.
It is the 24th time the Phillies have appeared on the cover — eighth most among MLB teams — and their second consecutive appearance on the MLB Preview.
Inside, SI the Phillies to win the NL East by four games over Atlanta with a 93-69 record but will fall to the Giants again in the NLCS.
Other Phillies predictions:
• Chase Utley is the NL East's "Star in Decline"
• Best Case scenario: The offense rolls early; Domonic Brown, John Mayberry Jr. or Ben Francisco flourishes in right; Phab Phour is as good as advertised; and there's another Philly parade next fall.
• Worst Case scenario: Cole Hamels regresses to his 2009 form, Ryan Howard still can't hit the breaking balls, and Chase Utley misses much of the season. Even that may not keep them from the postseason.
In addition, senior writer Gary Smith (formerly of the Daily News) profiled Philly's five starting pitchers in The Legion of Arms, assigning each of them a superhero alter ego:
• Cliff Lee, aka Loose Laser: "Nearly saved the metropolis in 2009; he's back to finish the job"
• Roy Halladay, aka Tunnelman: "Defeats hitters in a dark chamber, where his focus can't be shaken"
• Roy Oswalt, aka Late Riser: "Bedazzles enemies with lightning bolts that elevate and explode"
• Cole Hamels, aka Kid Quantum: "Is able to bend time and distance with his bionic left arm"
• Joe Blanton, aka The Sidekick: "The mere mortal among the five, bolstered by his superfriends"

The Hoosiers' Trick To Live Sound? Sennheiser
Trevor Gilligan has been Front of House engineer for the band since the beginning of the year. Since then he's weaned the band, all of who provide lead vocals or harmonies, off their previous mics and onto Sennheiser e 935s.
"The old mics sounded fine," explains Gilligan, "but I can get more level out of the 935s. I can get a much more placed in vocal sound with the 935, and I like the background noise I get from it. The stuff it does drag in sounds a lot nicer than what you get from some other mics. If you're working on a loud gig and it's hot and sweaty, and everyone's talking, the 935s cut through that really well. In a live situation, that's the way I like it."
Gilligan also impressed the rest of the engineering community with the sound he generated from Alphonso Sharland's drum kit.
"I had a lot of comments about the drum sound from other engineers during the festival season," he laughs. "They kept asking if I was using samples. No, it's a live kit with Sennheiser mics. It's an e 901 on the kick drum. That sounds fantastic. I have the e 904 on the toms. And I'm using the same one on the snare top, which sounds brilliant. On the snare bottom I'm using an e 614 condenser. For the high hats I'm using e 914s."
The backline is also miked with Sennheiser, with e 609s on the bass and guitar cabinets, and e 845s for the two-piece brass section.
The band were so impressed with Sennheiser's in-ear monitors that they purchased their own ew 300 IEM G2s. And since early spring they've also been using ew 372 wireless systems for guitar and bass.
"The wireless system for the guitars has been fantastic," assures Gilligan. "They had some other stuff beforehand that used to suffer from dropouts a lot more than the Sennheiser stuff. And it was a bit more fiddly to set up."
Although Gilligan is grateful for the opportunity to try a range of mics courtesy of Artist Relations Manager Phil Cummings, he's yet to need backup from Sennheiser to get him out of a jam.
"I appreciate the support from Sennheiser," he concludes. "It's great knowing they're there in event of a problem, but I've never had one of their mics break on me."

Apple wants to push consumers further into a wireless world. Its tactics: Eliminate the standard headphone jack in its newest iPhones and market new "AirPods" â tiny wireless earbuds that the company claims greatly improve on standard Bluetooth technology.
But that strategy has some risks.
Start with the AirPods themselves. These are a pair of earbuds, each with an inch or so of protruding plastic, and nothing else â no wires to hold them together, no dangling cords. If they live up to Apple's claims, they're a technological marvel, tiny and expensive. And, perhaps, also easily dislodged or misplaced.

Halloween is still more than two months away, but ghosts are filling up movie theaters like it's already October.
"ParaNorman,"a stop-motion animated film about a boy who talks to ghosts and zombies, and "The Awakening," a period tale of a grieving young woman in 1920s England who is a ghost hunter, open this Friday. On tap for Aug. 24 is "The Apparition," a horror film about a group of parapsychology students who make a big mistake when they decide to conjure a presence in an experiment.
On the docket for Aug. 31 is "The Possession," from producer Sam Raimi, about a young girl who is possessed by an evil dislocated Jewish spirit called a dybbuk. These films follow the July release"Red Lights," a thriller dealing with a paranormal investigator out to debunk a psychic. And on video-on-demand Aug. 30, there's "V/H/S," a grisly "found footage" anthology horror film that features a ghost story.
PHOTOS: Movies dealing with possession
More specters will be haunting the theaters this fall with "Hotel Transylvania," "House at the End of the Street," "Sinister" and "Paranormal Activity 4."
For a while, apparition-based horror films were taking a back seat to vampire and werewolf romances and thrillers, such as the "Twilight" and "Underworld" franchises. So why are ghosts having their moment?
Joe Swanberg, who directed the "ghost" episode of "V/H/S," which opens in theaters Oct. 5, believes it is part of the cyclical nature of horror films. "I think audiences are just probably on vampire overload," he said.
"Possession" director Ole Bornedal thinks something else is at work. "With all the crazy things happening in the world, people are searching for the roots of evil," he said. People, he added, believe evil is "something outside of us, something that can invade us. But the thing is, evil is inside of everybody. Evil is not an exterior thing. Evil is, unfortunately, an interior force: It is inside of you and me."
Todd Lincoln, writer-director of "The Apparition," believes the ghost films are also part of the 2012 phenomenon made up of eschatological beliefs that cataclysmic or transformative events will take place on Dec. 21, 2012.
"With the whole thing hanging over us, people are thinking about the ending of things and life and death," he said. "I feel in some ways it is just a reaction...."
PHOTOS: A brief hitstory of found footage films
Of course, ghost stories have long haunted our cinematic landscape. They've run the gamut, from atmospheric terror tales such as Jack Clayton's 1961 "The Innocents" to comedies like 1984's blockbuster "Ghostbusters" and faux-documentaries like 1999's "The Blair Witch Project" and the"Paranormal Activity"franchise, which began in 2007.
Audiences relish the experience of sitting in darkened theaters in communal fear, gasping at specters, cowering at muffled cries and scary sounds emanating from attics, wondering what lies behind the closed door of an old, spooky house.
"Watching ghost stories allows audiences to confront their fear," said Gloria Shin, a critical studies expert and adjunct professor at USC. "This genre in particular really wants you to exorcise these feelings as the characters are confronting them. Audiences have been seeking the extraordinary and supernatural for a very long time," she said.
A number of films among the current crop of ghost stories are about more than scares — they are parables, allegories or vehicles for larger commentary.
Chris Butler, who wrote and directed "ParaNorman" with Sam Fell, said that the film really isn't about ghosts and zombies, but how a young boy deals with being bullied in school and the fact that his parents are inattentive. Butler used the genre as a "way to tell a story about a kid who didn't fit in," he said.
"It seemed appropriate because zombie movies have always had some of the best social commentary," he said. "There are so many ghost stories.... Everyone is so familiar with zombies and ghosts, it's fun to turn those preconceptions on their head. This movie is very much more about not judging a book by its cover."
Shin takes the message of "ParaNorman" a bit further. She said the film also revolves around "a larger metaphor about the eradication of a town and he saves the town … by his ability to talk to ghosts. He becomes heroic because of his special magical abilities."
Bornedal said "The Possession" isn't just a horror film about a girl and a malevolent spirit — it's an allegorical tale about a divorced family. "It sounds incredibly boring to call it a divorce movie, but it is about a story about a man and a woman who are actually meant to be together and for some reason can't. The victims are always the kids."
PHOTOS: Paranormal investigators
Jason Hawes, star of the Syfy Channel's long-running"Ghost Hunters" reality series, said he's thrilled that several of the ghost stories now coming to theaters feature equipment — such as special cameras and audio-recording devices — that illustrate attempts to capture or debunk the paranormal.
"We have always tried to advance technology," said Hawes. "It is good to see the movies starting to connect on that. It is not just about a bunch of people walking into a room and saying 'I feel something.' That is not what it is about. It is trying to actually catch this stuff, to have evidence that you are able to put out in the real world and to see the movies grabbing onto the technology is huge."
British writer Stephen Volk, who co-wrote "The Awakening," as well as Ken Russell's 1986 "Gothic," said he doesn't believe in ghosts but many people do — or want to.
"It is kind of wish fulfillment," he said. "There might be something more than material reality."

Live Looping Michael Jackson's "Thriller" with EHX 2880 Looper FX Pedal
Matt Hill of the Floozies sent Electro-harmonix this live looping remix of Michael Jackson's "Thriller." Check it out!
Mike notes: "Nothing is pre-recorded, everything is performed live and looped with the EHX 2880. It showcases pretty much everything you can do with the 2880 - reverse, tempo change, multiple tracks cutting in and out, mixdown, punch in, overdub, and you can see the unit throughout the whole video."
This demonstration is a great example of how versatile and easy to use the Electro-Harmonix 2880 Multitrack Looper is!
The Electro-Harmonix 2880 offers the familiar control setup of a multitrack digital recorder while adding flexible looping capabilities and track manipulation control. Multiple loops, in stereo and mono, can be pitch shifted, reversed and manipulated on four recording tracks. These four tracks can then be moved to two mixdown tracks, freeing them up to be reused. Flexible punch in/out is available on any recording track, allowing the musician to achieve "Looper Perfection" with the 2880.

Eggs were thrown and a woman carrying a child jumped in front of a truck as anti live-export demonstrators and farmers held duelling rallies in Fremantle.
Stop Live Exports co-ordinator Katrina Love said about 1000 people formed a human chain across Stirling Bridge on Sunday morning, up from 370 last year.
At the same time, about 900 farmers, breeders and live export industry workers held a rally on the foreshore below as a procession of about a dozen trucks, plastered with banners in support of the trade, drove across the bridge.
Ms Love said the protest was largely peaceful, but a handful of demonstrators - including a woman carrying a child - jumped in front of the trucks in an effort to stop them.
She said she did not condone those actions and the protesters would have been instructed to make a more symbolic gesture if police had warned organisers about the convoy.
"We could have asked everyone to turn their backs to the trucks, which would have been more poignant," Ms Love told AAP.
She said eggs were hurled at demonstrators - presumably by people in support of the live export trade - from passing cars.
And there had also previously been threats of violence posted on Stop Live Exports' Facebook page, "including being shot at", she said.
Ms Love said police had been advised of the threats, but decided not to stop the counter rally.
Police said attendees to both rallies were generally well behaved apart from a few minor incidents.
No arrests were made, but two move-on notices were issued.
Ms Love said Stop Live Exports was not calling for an immediate end to the trade, as this would cause economic hardship.
Instead, it wanted live exports to be phased out over the next three to 10 years and be replaced with processing in Australia, she said.
"We want to see governments getting involved in looking for options that are viable for producers, but also humane," Ms Love said.

There Once Was a Man from Nantucket...
There once was a runner called Half-Fast,
Whose limericks were quite unsurpassed.
He gave it a try,
Without knowing why,
And discovered he was having a blast.
Now Half-Fast had a pair of Mizunos,
And he frequently lamented their woes.
When the snow came in dumps,
They turned into pumps,
And when you're trying to run, that blows!
The Mizunos ad group must be full of deceit,
But I suppose it would be hard to compete,
If you played a fair game,
And your slogan became;
"It's like getting kicked in the nuts for your feet!"
Now I sent them off to Reuse-A-Shoe,
Without even bidding them a formal adieu,
Then I told them a lie,
With a gleam in my eye,
"This hurts me much more than it hurts you."
If you don't know what the Reuse-A-Shoe program is then you should go and read my post over at CRN, Your Right to Shoes. Writing that article is partially what inspired this post. Do you think that Mizuno will be contacting me to offer me free shoes anytime soon?
6 comments:
If you get the shoes (a certificate would be best). . . you could Give them to the SHAVE YOUR 5K winner. . . . it'll be winter again by then & you won't want them. :o)ReplyDelete
Sometimes it is scary how creative you are :-)ReplyDelete
"It's like getting kicked in the nuts for your feet!"ReplyDelete
That line? Is Pure Comedy Gold.
Thanks for the laugh!!
Oh Vanilla, you crack me up. And those shoes turning in to pumps still floors me. I was thinking the same thing about the Mizuno people, you never know. They will probably beg the awesome and all powerful Vanilla to give another pair a try. Would you say no?ReplyDelete
I was thinking the same thing about my sausage shirt. I hate that thing. Should have written the brand name in the post. hee hee
Thank you for the reminder about shoes. Hopefully we are going to have a shoe-a-thon associated with one of the virtual races to see how many old pairs we can get donated.ReplyDelete
I love it! You are a funny guy.ReplyDelete

BRISTOL, Tenn. – King College Softball has announced the addition of two assistant coaches to the team's coaching staff. Travis McCall has joined the Tornado staff and Amanda Crumpler will return for her first full season under head coach Jennifer Testa.
McCall comes to King after spending last year as an assistant coach at Columbus State University (Columbus, Ga.) having helped the Cougars to a 37-win season and a 12-8 Peach Belt Conference mark. While assisting with the day-to-day operations and recruiting coordinator for the Columbus State softball program, he served as an assistant sports information director. Prior to his time at CSU, McCall spent a year at Lamar High School volunteering as an assistant baseball coach for a team that participated in the Georgia High School Association state playoffs.
|Travis McCall
"I am extremely excited to have Travis join our coaching staff here at King," said head coach Jenn Testa. "His proven knowledge and success in this sport combined with his character are just what we need to help elevate this program to a different level."
McCall received his bachelor's degree with a concentration in Sports Management and a minor in marketing from the University of West Georgia in May 2008. In December 2009 he earned his Master of Business, also from UWG.
Crumpler begins her second season with Tornado softball after joining the staff during the 2011 season. She spent the 2010 softball season volunteering with Emory and Henry College (Emory, Va.). Crumpler was a student-athlete at King from 2005-09, serving as a four-year starter and team captain. said head coach Jenn Testa.
"Amanda stepped in last season as an assistant and did a great job for us. Her knowledge of the game and passion for King College make her a valuable asset to our program," said Testa.
Crumpler currently holds six school records for a single season including home runs (12), runs batted in (41), and hits (61). She was also a three time All-Conference player and two-time All-Region player.
"We are really excited about the addition of both Travis and Amanda to the King College coaching staff," said Testa. "Both bring a tremendous amount of knowledge and proven experience to our growing softball program. It is a great time for King Softball and part of that excitement is the addition of these great coaches."

The Big Reveal! Barney's Pop Art Loft
Location: Downtown Los Angeles
Style: Fun, artistic, modern loft
Go Los Angeles! I'd never had the opportunity to work with a vintage LA loft before, and it was a gas. Barney's loft was also a perfect job for our sponsor, Valspar Paint, because of the sheer height and length of his walls. With so much space, I really relied on the new color to warm up and make this room happen. And while I was nervous that the colors we chose might not work (there was nowhere to hide if they didn't), I think they're pretty much perfect. Check it out.
For Barney's palette I wanted a warm color that would go well with his other beige walls, wood floor and modern furniture, but I couldn't bring myself to do red or orange or yellow, as they would just overwhelm the space. Green was our saviour. A color that can go both cool and warm, I found a warm, avocado tone that had a real richness and depth to it. Then we ran it the entire length of one side of the loft. Fun.
For the other walls in the living area, we redid Barney's beige, with a richer version from Valspar and also painted his windows in a vintage tone that I found a trace of on the outside of the building. Of all the paint jobs, this one — I feel — really makes the biggest impact on the space in a stylish, modern way.
• Gilded Pesto - 6007-6B (main accent wall)
• Holmes Cream - 3004-10B (neutral walls)
• Cliveden Grey Morning - 6001-1B (window trim)
Barney's loft before
Barney's loft after
Here's a view right across to the fireplace (that works). We didn't add much to this scene but paint, a plant and the rug (oh, curtains too), but the paint, with the fireplace strip left white, really makes a difference.
Barney sent me an email to let me know how he felt about the loft. "My favorite part of the new room is how the rug, furniture, and side tables were placed in such a way that it creates a totally independent room separate from the kitchen or office area," he says, "I know how difficult it is to create this illusion especially in a large open loft space, but it definitely works!"
"I also really love how the pesto green really lightens up the place, but at the same time creates this sense of warmth that we just didn't have with the old beige color."
I asked him if he was going to have a party and he said, "We've already got plans in place to have dinners, movie nights, and parties within the next couple of months, ha ha. Lets just say that we'll be putting this new space to good use. I do feel that we feel more proud of the space in a way that we've never felt before, it seems like all I want to do now is share it with my closest friends and family."
"I think one of the most important things that I was concerned about was creating a space that I would feel proud to share with my wife, a place that we would be happy and overjoyed to call our home. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! Thank you, Maxwell, Sarah, Joe, Rich, Jim, David, Valspar Paint, and everyone at Apartment Therapy."
Here's a view from the new dining room right across to the living room windows. It's an impressive view, and I was particularly eager to get big, long curtains on either side of it. While you can't tell that the afternoon sun is really oppressive (one reason for adding the curtains), on a purely decorative level they are very important for softening the frame of the industrial windows and creating a much more sophisticated filter for the light at all other times of the day.
A special thank-you to our painter, Alan Silverstein and his crew from All Los Angeles Painting, for their excellent work. And a HUGE thank you to our incredible stylist, Joe Maer, and our photographer, Jim Franco, who really helped us bring the final layers of style and detail to Barney's room.

And with that..... *ufc commentator* IT'S ALL OVER!!
Anyway, they did exactly what I been expexted them to do for this episode.
@Destiny's Remaster, already announced:
So they didn't drop the ball, on this opportunity. *applause*
Now show me... just how your going to capitalize on this.
My Assumptions on Debut: I say anywhere from; whatever is left of this year to Q2 2013. Announcing it literally right after the end of SEED's Remaster (which even I wouldn't expect until at least a couple weeks later), and not Debuting it until Q4 2013, this would be a missed chance. And Seeing as how SEED's Remaster was announced 3 moths before it's official debut, I expect a couple weeks to three months for 1st episode debut.

No what? I contract my previous post. I hope it's fake. What they showed with this Remaster, I have no f****** faith. This is Destiny were taking about, which means most of the bull**** will remain.

2014? Damn.
Okay, so I just finished watching SEED for the first time. And I must say that although it started out slow, I love it - the characters, the mecha, the plot. I have some questions, though -
1) What's up with Andrew Waltfield? Was he on Orb's side all along? Or did he defect after losing Aisha?
2) Flay. Um. I don't get the whole deal with Kira and her. Did Kira like her, or was she just his sex buddy? Why was he so emotionally charged over her?
3) The five original Gundams. I was so confused when Cagalli showed up at the beginning and thought her father betrayed Orb. Did Orb build the Gundams for the Earth Alliance? And if they did, why? Aren't they neutral?

The first half is rather decent. It's even very exciting for the first 10-15 episodes or so.
My advice: just watch the yet-to-come Destiny Remaster. You might get to watch the "best" version of Destiny by doing that. You don't have to go through "hell" first ^^.

Also, we don't know what the interest would be at, regarding a Remaster and CE in general. Add in the fact that the next Gundam show would be right around the corner at that time (assuming they don't take a long break). Add in the fact it will take a year-round to finish, and possibly vying for Sunrise's attention with another Animated work or Gundam at that point.
I'm going with logic.

Also, Flay was Kira's first love. They say someone's first love is incredibly strong (I've yet to fall for someone so I wouldn't know personally), so Flay's fate would hit Kira from multiple fronts. Major crush, first love, and a feeling of debt to her.
That, and her fate was rather shocking. Kira really has a bad record with protecting escape shuttles.

Ah, I see. I don't know, Flay was just... Annoying. And she felt like an unnecessary character to me towards the last few episodes, other than raging Kira to go after Le Creuset.
(Too lazy to multi-quote, so I'll just type my replies here.)
Thanks for the info about Waltfield, I understand now.
As for Orb and the Gundams - so Uzumi had no idea Orb was building them for the Earth Alliance before ZAFT stole the Gundams? Wished they had explained that a bit more in the show.
Oh, and one more question - 4) How the hell did Kira end up in the PLANTS after surviving the Aegis explosion? (I was going to ask how he even survived, but I guess phase shift is wondrous, after seeing the Strike Rouge and the Freedom surviving the Justice/Genesis blast.) Are we supposed to assumed that the blind monk who found him so happened to know Lacus, and so happened to know they knew each other? It felt like Lacus planned everything. "Kidnapping" Kira, that is.
Plus I guess I'll wait for the Destiny remaster. It was wildly popular when I was young, my friends and cousins all loved it, but I wasn't into Gundam then, so I'd like to give it a watch. I need more Athrun. I guess I'll try to catch up with UC in the meantime.

Sale gives up two homers in loss to O's
CHICAGO -- Since his Major League debut in relief at Camden Yards, on Aug. 6, 2010, when he faced two hitters and didn't retire either one, the Orioles have found a little bit of success against White Sox ace Chris Sale.
"I'd say 'a lot of bit' against me," a smiling Sale said following the Orioles' 8-2 victory in Monday's series opener at U.S. Cellular Field.View Full Game Coverage
CHICAGO -- Since his Major League debut in relief at Camden Yards, on Aug. 6, 2010, when he faced two hitters and didn't retire either one, the Orioles have found a little bit of success against White Sox ace Chris Sale.
"I'd say 'a lot of bit' against me," a smiling Sale said following the Orioles' 8-2 victory in Monday's series opener at U.S. Cellular Field.View Full Game Coverage
Baltimore (71-52) scored three runs on eight hits in six innings against Sale, including home runs by J.J. Hardy leading off the second and Nelson Cruz leading off the sixth. It was Sale's first start allowing multiple homers since Sept. 15, 2013, against Cleveland, when Matt Carson, Nick Swisher and Asdrubal Cabrera went deep.
Nick Markakis joined Josh Hamilton (June 7), Gregor Blanco (June 18) and Alex Gordon (July 21) as the only left-handed hitters with multiple hits off Sale in a single game in 2014. For the season the Orioles are 19-for-52 against Sale in two starts covering 12 innings, and the rest of the league is 80-for-438 over his other 18 starts.
On this particular evening, when the White Sox (59-66) dropped to 2-2 on their six-game homestand, manager Robin Ventura didn't feel Sale was at his usual Cy Young-caliber efficiency. But there's a reason why the Orioles are the lone American League team that Sale hasn't defeated in his career.
"This is a team that, no question, I've struggled against from the first pitch I ever threw," Sale said. "It's something that's just frustrating. You have a plan you want to execute. Sometimes teams come in and they do what they did tonight against me."
"You just have to go up there with a game plan, stick to it, and hopefully he leaves one over the plate or he hangs one," Markakis said. "Just go up there, have good at-bats, and when he leaves one over the plate and he makes a mistake, you've got to do your best to put wood on it. We did that pretty well tonight against a great pitcher."
Sale (10-3) exited at 121 pitches, striking out eight and walking two. He has 158 strikeouts and 26 walks in 136 innings, with six straight games of eight strikeouts or more.
His departure came after he struck out Jonathan Schoop swinging, and it also followed a mound visit from Ventura when Sale was at 115 pitches, with runners on the corners and two outs. The exact nature of the conversation comes out a little different, depending on whom you ask.
"I just made sure he wasn't trying to overthrow," Ventura said. "I knew it was going to be his last guy, just making sure he felt good before he was going after the guy. I didn't want him overthrowing and overextending himself."
"Very calm," said the intensely competitive Sale with a wry smile on how he convinced Ventura to stay in the game with Ronald Belisario warming up. "I asked how his day was going, and he commented on my shoes, and he liked them. It went very well."
While the Orioles were connecting consistently off Sale, the White Sox were doing little against Baltimore starter Bud Norris, who limited the White Sox to one Jordan Danks single in the second until the seventh inning, when Chicago pushed across two runs.
It was Avisail Garcia who bailed out the offense when he lined a 1-2 pitch to right to score Alejandro De Aza and Alexei Ramirez with two outs. Those two were at second and third with nobody out before Jose Abreu flied out and Adam Dunn struck out.
Norris (11-7) would have allowed two more runs if not for a spectacular catch by Markakis in right. On Conor Gillaspie's blast headed for the Orioles' bullpen, Markakis went over the wall with a perfectly timed leap to bring back the go-ahead home run.
"We were a great outfielder away from potentially winning that game," Sale said.
Schoop's two-out, three-run double in the eighth off Matt Lindstrom gave the Orioles a little extra room to work, followed by Markakis' two-run shot off Lindstrom during the five-run frame. That rally started with nobody on and two out via Hardy's single against Belisario and was extended when Eric Surkamp hit Chris Davis on a 1-2 pitch and Lindstrom walked Caleb Joseph after being ahead, 1-2, to load the bases.
"Throwing strikes is not the problem. It's putting them away, having a couple pitches to waste," said Lindstrom, who has allowed six runs on seven hits over his last one-plus innings. "Hopefully, I can continue working and just be able to put guys away."
Even in defeat, as part of his 16th quality start, Sale provides an expected level of postgame entertainment. His 19th individual word of the start points the White Sox toward Tuesday's action.
"Obviously, you want to extricate this from our minds," he said. "Come in fresh and ready to go."

Car Review
2013 FIAT 500C Abarth: 5 Reasons to Buy - Video
For a cute little cabriolet, the 2013 FIAT 500C Abarth -- or 500 Abarth Cabrio, depending on whom you ask -- certainly packs a punch. But this isn't your garden-variety FIAT. The drop-top Abarth is named after European racing icon Carlo Abarth, and it's got the skills to match. Here are 5 Reasons why the low-cost, high-performance 500C Abarth is a must-drive.
1. Turbocharged Power
Underneath a very cool red engine cover with the trademark Abarth scorpion on top, the 500C Abarth packs a 1.4-liter 4-cylinder engine that's turbocharged for 160 horsepower. That's a lot of pep for a little car, and the precise, rally-style 5-speed manual transmission only adds to the fun. Plus, the Abarth Cabrio rocks an exclusive performance exhaust that will definitely have your neighbors talking.
2. Unique Retractable Roof
The 500C Abarth's roof has a metal frame, but the part in between is made of fabric, and it powers down like an enormous sunroof. That means you get almost the same structural rigidity as you would in the Abarth coupe, along with fun in the sun whenever you want it. And we do mean "whenever," because thanks to that protective metal perimeter, you can open the fabric section at speeds of up to 60 miles per hour. That's unheard of in a conventional convertible.
3. Sporty Handling
The regular FIAT 500 is already sporty, but the 500C Abarth takes it to another level. The springs are stiffer, the ride height is lower, the front shocks are high-performance pieces from Koni and the tires are wider Pirellis. You get upgraded brakes with red calipers, too. Translation: It's a blast to drive, whether you're running errands or bombing down your favorite back road.
4. Great Fuel Economy
The 500C Abarth has a responsible side, too. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, the Abarth gets 28 miles per gallon city/34 mpg hwy. That's amazing for a car that scoots to 60 mph in under seven seconds and delivers serious turbocharged passing power.
5. Reasonable Price
With its high-performance pedigree and Italian panache, you might think the 500C Abarth is out of your price range. But think again, because for about $27,000, a new Abarth Cabrio could be yours. That's a lot of European character for not a lot of money. The rival MINI Cooper S convertible, by the way, starts at almost $29,000, and that's before you add options.
AutoTrader's Advice
The 2013 FIAT 500C Abarth just might be the most fun you can have for under $30,000. Go try one -- with the top down, obviously -- and see if you don't agree.

This story appears in the January 2012 issue of National Geographic magazine.
It was like a scene conjured by a Hollywood special effects shop. In September 2005 Afar herders in northern Ethiopia watched in amazement as the Earth yawned open and swallowed their goats and camels. Chunks of obsidian burst from subterranean caverns and flew through the air, said one local, "like huge black birds." For three days a cloud of billowing ash dimmed the sun as the region's largest volcano, Erta Ale—"smoking mountain" in the Afar language—erupted.
What set off these startling events? Miles below the surface a mammoth burp of magma had welled up between two tectonic plates, prying them farther apart. Aboveground, hundreds of faults and fissures opened along a 40-mile stretch of desert, swallowing unlucky livestock. More than a dozen smaller burps have shaken the area in the years since.
East Africa's Afar depression is one of the world's most geologically hyperactive regions. Fly over it in an airplane—or in a one-person motorized paraglider, as photographer George Steinmetz did countless times—and it may appear as frozen and still as Arctic ice. But the Afar's timeless visage hides its true nature. Below the surface, Earth's rocky rind is ripping apart, and underground chambers of magma are fueling 12 active volcanoes as well as steaming geysers, boiling cauldrons, and a fiery lake of lava.
The 2005 quakes and subsequent rattlings are the latest in a long series of seismic upheavals that started some 30 million years ago, when magma pushed through the Earth's crust and began splitting the Arabian Peninsula from Africa, creating the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. As the upwelling magma cools, it becomes denser and sinks. Some parts of the Afar now sit more than 500 feet below sea level.
Because of its low elevation, the Afar depression has been repeatedly flooded by the Red Sea, most recently about 30,000 years ago. After each incursion, the seawater evaporated, leaving behind thick layers of salt. This "white gold" has long been an important source of income for the Afar people, who remain fiercely loyal to this extreme land despite summer temperatures that can soar above 120 degrees Fahrenheit.
Scientists brave the desert's hardships for a different reason. The Afar is one of the few places on Earth where an undersea ridge—a jagged volcanic seam where magma oozes up and becomes new seafloor—emerges on land. This offers earth scientists the rare chance to study geologic processes that normally unfold far below the surface of the ocean.
Given enough time—at least several million years—those processes will produce dramatic changes in the geography of Africa: The Afar depression and the entire Great Rift Valley will cradle a new sea that connects the Red Sea to the Indian Ocean and cleaves the Horn of Africa from the continent.

5 Ways To Display Your Camera Collection
A home of two photographers is a unique home &mdash needless to say it's filled with art, cameras and pops of bright colors. Any modern day photographer enjoys paying homage to the past, and it's typically through collecting and often using vintage cameras. Why wouldn't you? The shots look completely different and the bodies are much more attractive than any modern day alternative.
We have our vintage camera collection on an IKEA shelf hung above a low lying credenza. That way they stay far away from our beasts (aka kittens) and deter people from actually reaching up to grab them (we'd be seriously PO'd if any of them broke).
Cameras aren't always the easiest collections to display. Most of the time they just look too contrived, so we've rounded up some of our favorite displays:

(via Wired Enterprise)
Sam Ramji met AT&T chief technology officer John Donovan on a speed date — or at least the tech world equivalent of a speed date.
In 2009, some big-name venture capitalists arranged for lightning-fast meetings between AT&T's top brass and the brains behind various Silicon Valley startups, including Ramji's new venture: Apigee, a company that builds and operates APIs. That's tech-world speak for the software that lets things like Facebook, Google and Twitter talk to all those applications on your iPhone.
Apigee helps companies connect themselves to as many applications as possible — and ultimately reinvent the way they do business — but Ramji wasn't sure he could help AT&T. Or at least, that's what he said. According to Donovan, when Ramji showed up for their speed date, he played hard-to-get. "You guys don't move fast enough to play in our game," he told Donovan.
Just a few years ago, that may have been true. But today, it's not. AT&T ended up joining forces with Apigee, building APIs that let outside software developers build phone and tablet applications that do everything from sending text messages across the AT&T cellular network to charging payments straight to a user's monthly AT&T bill. By December of last year, the telecom giant was handling 4.6 billion API calls a month on its network, and Donovan believes that number will reach 10 billion by the end of 2012. "That's the same range," he says, "as the top web companies."
There was a time when APIs — or Application Programming Interfaces — were just a way of building applications for a desktop operating system like Microsoft Windows. But in the age of the internet, they have the power to plug applications into, well, almost anything. They've already transformed websites like Google and Facebook and Twitter into services that talk to a world of other applications, across PCs as well as mobile phones. But that's small potatoes. They're also breathing new life into old-world operations, including mobile carriers like AT&T and even auto makers like General Motors. In January, GM — another Apigee partner — said it would offer APIs for OnStar, the communications service it builds into cars.
"Companies are really changing the way they develop their products and deliver their products," says Ted Shelton, a former software developer and chief strategy officer at Borland Software who is now a managing director at management consultant PwC, where he helps companies build APIs too. "We're seeing [API efforts] in virtually every industry. We've done work in healthcare, in finance, manufacturing, shipping and logistics, automotive. Whether you're a company serves consumers or other businesses, there is an enormous need to expose both data and business processes in ways that others can make use of it."
The aim of these companies isn't just to get Joe Software Developer building new applications for their services. They want to, yes, make more money, and in the end, an API can help do that — though the path isn't always obvious. Some companies charge developers to use their APIs, creating an immediate source of revenue. But in other cases, APIs are a way of giving things away for free, in the hope that this will expand the use of a service and eventually generate new revenue in other ways. If AT&T improves applications on its network, for instance, more people will use it — at least in theory. And that means more money.
"If you're trying to think of all the possible ways you can extend or enhance [a product], it's likely you can invest in only a couple of options," Shelton says, arguing that you should open up your APIs instead — and let everyone else dream up those improvements. "They're going to try all the experiments you thought of, but also all the ones you haven't thought of."
John Donovan acknowledges that AT&T hasn't quite figured out all the ways its APIs will drive revenue, but after years of keeping its network closed to outside applications, AT&T believes this change can only improve its position. "The more connections into our network," he tells Wired, "the better."
Wall Street Meets Facebook (Again)
This month's API poster child is Bloomberg. On February 1, the financial news and data giant opened up APIs that distribute its market data — and they're completely free. It's quite a change for Bloomberg, which — like its chief competitor, Thomson Reuters — has long charged companies for the use of proprietary machines that serve up this data.
There are many forces at work here. Reuters — the dominant player in this financial data market — is under investigation by the EU for not opening up its data. Bloomberg's move is a way of gaining an edge on a rival. But the company also says it's hoping to "spur innovation" in the financial services industry. That may sound like spin, but there's all sorts of precedent here. Apigee's Sam Ramji points to Facebook: Mark Zuckerberg and company won the battle with MySpace at least in part because they opened up APIs that allowed outside developers to build application on their social network.
Perhaps Bloomberg can do the same, expanding the use of its services by encouraging others to build applications that plug into it. Once you have the users, you can sell other stuff — like complimentary services or software. Facebook's IPO filing reveals that 12 percent of its revenue comes from Zynga, a company that uses Facebook APIs to build games atop the social network. Some of this dough comes from Zynga ads posted to the site, and the rest comes from Zynga games using Facebook's payments system.
And Bloomberg is not alone. In October, NYSE Technologies — the IT division of NYSE Euronext, the company that operates the New York Stock Exchange and various other exchanges across the globe — open sourced the APIs it uses to distribute market data, hoping to expand the market for its services. The idea is not only to share data for free, but to share the design of the APIs themselves, so that other outfits can built similar interfaces.
"We want to create a community around open and common standards so that we can drive the cost and friction out of global trading," NYSE Technologies CEO Stanley Young told Wired at the time. "At the moment, it's a very fragmented, very complex, very costly place to do business — especially if you're a fund manager sitting somewhere in the Midwest and you want to execute trades on 100 exchanges across the world." As more outfits use its APIs, NYSE plans to sell them stuff like virtual infrastructure, where they can run the tools that use its data.
According to Ted Shelton, of PwC, this free data idea is finding fertile ground on Wall Street, a place that has always been quick to adopt new technology — and new ways of thinking about technology. "You're going to see more and more cases where companies that are providers of data — or of business processes like risk management models or trading systems — open up APIs so that other people, even outside the financial industry, can begin to innovate."
The New Open Source
It's no coincidence that Apigee's Sam Ramji is the former head of open source at Microsoft — a company that spent thirty years building a business that sold Word and Windows and other shrink-wrapped boxes of software, but has now realized there's value in building software you give away for free. Ramji sees free data APIs as The New Open Source. "Companies like Microsoft were terrified of open source, but they came around," he says. "For so many years, people saw data as a proprietary advantage, but now we have this wave of companies that want to give it away for free."
If you give away the data for free, Ramji says, you can still find a way of making money from the metadata. "Does it matter what the set of all YouTube videos are being linked on Twitter? Or does it matter what the top 20 YouTube videos are? Is the most important financial trading information the current trades — data — or is it the stocks that are currently being looked up by the most people — metadata? Much like open source, open data is a business model built on moving the acme of value to a different point in the chain — enabling these players to disrupt competitors and profit from asymmetric advantages."
Bloomberg and NYSE are moving in this general direction, but Ramji says their "open APIs" could be more open. Apigee seeks to build APIs based on the web's underlying HTTP protocol and an API convention called REST (representational state transfer) — which basically means they can be used on most any software platform, with almost any language. Whereas Bloomberg and NYSE use protocols that only work with certain tools, Ramji's goal is a world where any API works anywhere.
"HTTP is ubiquitous. Every language on every device has libraries that know how to act as an HTTP client," Ramji says. "This is true openness in APIs: using standard, open, free technologies to offer your data and services. The huge benefit of this is that without any additional effort, any device you've imagined — or not — has the capability of accessing your API."
This too may sound like spin. But it's indeed the way the world is moving. Apigee is helping Morningstar, a Bloomberg competitor, build a "RESTful" API, and this is just one of 250 "enterprise" businesses working with Ramji and company.
As Apigee CEO Chet Kapoor points out, these businesses have so many different goals. APIs aren't just a means of sharing data. They're a way of getting your services onto the new breed of mobile devices, including iPhones, iPads, and Android devices. And they're a way of streamlining your partnerships with other companies. "You don't have give partners software in order to interact with you," Kapoor says. "You just give them an API."
Whether you're a tech company or not — whether you believe in open data or not — you can benefit from an API. Agigee's list of customers includes not only AT&T and GM and Morningstar, but MTV and Staples and Sears. "Now that's an old line company," Ramji says.
Ramji may have played hard-to-get with John Donovan. But the truth is that Apigee sees everyone as a potential customer. "If you have to ask who our customers might be," Chet Kapoor says, "you don't understand what's going on here."Go Back to Top. Skip To: Start of Article.

i installed OpenEmm-2015 R2 on an ubuntu 14.04.
Tweaked Java and MySQL a bit and i'm pretty happy about the performance with a total member base of 300 000 members
Got SPF,DMARC,ReverseDNS and all other stuff ready the only problem remains DKIM.
So far my opendkim milter for sendmail only works if i relay through sendmail instead using the default openemm way. Relaying has the disadvantage that some openemm features are not working like multi queue and bounce management.
Did someone manage to have opendkim and bounce management running at the the same time and can post some example configuration or give some hints ?
The only tips i found in this forum are for pretty old versions of OpenEMM.
Thanks a lot for your input!

Wichita State pounds La Salle, advances to Elite Eight
Los Angeles, CA – Malcolm Armstead scored 18 points, and Wichita State dominated inside the paint to beat La Salle, 72-58, in the West Regional semifinals of the NCAA Tournament.
The ninth-seeded Shockers (29-8), who advanced to the Elite Eight for the first time since 1981, will take on No. 2 seed Ohio State Saturday. The Buckeyes edged Arizona, 73-70, in the first game at Staples Center Thursday.
The only trip to the Final Four for Wichita State came in 1965 when the Shockers lost to eventual champion UCLA.
Carl Hall tallied 16 points and eight rebounds, and Ron Baker scored 13 for the Shockers, who held a 47-29 rebounding advantage.
"We need one more win to seal this deal and go back home and get ready for the Final Four," Baker said. "I'm really excited for Saturday. We'll work tomorrow and Saturday morning to prepare for Ohio State. It's going to be a grind, and we'll take it day by day."
Jerrell Wright and Tyrone Garland each had 16 points for the 13th-seeded Explorers (24-10), who won three games in this tournament to make it to the Sweet 16. That included a 76-74 win over Ole Miss on Sunday.
Ramon Galloway had 11 points and eight rebounds, but was just 4-of-15 from the field.
"I think everyone on our team has a great feeling about this year," La Salle coach Dr. John Giannini said. "The season's over, but the way we help each other is not over."
The Explorers, who never led, were hampered by horrible first-half shooting. They were 8-of-30 from the field, compared to 16-of-30 for the Shockers. La Salle was behind 17-3 nearly seven minutes into the game.
"I just feel like I missed open shots," Galloway said. "I missed an air ball, a floater. I just like offensively I was just missing shots early. Wichita State is a great team. They work hard and they play real physical. But I think they were playing really good, hard defense, and I just missed shots."
Hall had 14 points on 7-of-8 shooting at the break, and the Explorers never got within single digits in the second half.
"I think we were a little fresher. We beat them down the floor early. We got some good stops and had a commanding lead early and were able to play with that cushion throughout," Wichita State coach Gregg Marshall said.
The Shockers, who upended No. 1 seed Gonzaga in the third round, got a big boost from Hall early. He scored 10 of Wichita State's first 14 points. His layup increased the margin to 14-2 only 4:11 into the game.
Fred Vanvleet's 3-pointer moved the difference to 17-3, and although the Explorers got within eight several times later in the half, the Shockers were just too strong inside and pulled away before the break.
Tekele Cotton's jumper extended the lead to 36-21 and capped a 7-0 push. It was 38-22 at halftime.
Armstead and Baker hit consecutive 3-pointers to start the second half, and it was an uphill battle from there for La Salle.
Tyreek Duren's 3-point play trimmed the deficit to 49-38 with 12:43 left, but Vanvleet countered with a layup.
La Salle cut it to 11 only one more time.
Game Notes
Galloway was 2-of-9 from the field in the first half ... The Explorers shot 35.7 percent for the game ... Wichita State held a 40-26 scoring advantage in the paint and 9-0 cushion in fast-break points.

|P is for Practical
accessing an environment variable dynamicallyby JennieInMI (Acolyte)
|on Jan 01, 2013 at 18:47 UTC ( #1011174=perlquestion: print w/replies, xml )
|Need Help??
JennieInMI has asked for the
wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Hi Folks,
I'm on a PC running Windows 7 and I am using ActivePerl. Once I work out the bugs the script this sub lives in will run on a Windows Server 2008 SP1 machine. Not sure which of that info might be needed/helpful, but there it is!
I have read about the ENV module, but I don't think it does what I need it to. I don't want the env variables in existence when the script is first run, I would like that errorlevel env var that is set (hopefully) when the script I call from inside my Perl script is run. To that end, I have a couple of questions.
1. If I call another script (a BeyondCompare3 script in this case) with a system call in backticks from a Perl script, is the DOS errorlevel environment variable set? I believe that's what I understand from all the reading I've been doing on it, but I wondered if anyone could confirm that.
2. If it is set, is my $errorLevel = %ERRORLEVEL; the proper way to access that value in my Perl script?
This is what my mock-up sub looks like so far:
I know it's pretty obvious from looking at it, but the goal is to verify that the contents of the two folders are identical. Not so obvious probably is that nothing else needs to match - date modified, permissions, etc - only the contents of the folders need to be identical. I've run my script a few times, but I don't think I'm getting what I am looking for. For example, the installers in the deliveries and caching folder don't match today and here is the result I get in the console window when I run my Perl script $errorLevel is 0 I know that the errorlevel is being set in response to that command running because when I intentionally mess up a folder name I do get a different code.
I've put a lot of work into this at this point so I'd like to make it work and would really like advice to that end, but I am also open to hearing about Perlish way to accomplish this folder comparison. It has to be heavy duty though because these folders are huge.
Thank you in advance for any advice. So grateful to have you all to ask.
I realize I didn't make it clear that I have looked up Perlish way to accomplish this and found this link at StackOverflow, but you need to download modules to make it work and I wasn't sure how safe that was. I'm on my work computer and so I can't be cavalier about naughty things getting in. Sorry if the StackOverflow reference is taboo. Just didn't want you all to think I came expecting you to do all the work for me.

Changes to deductions, claims, dependents and tax laws can make people worry about filing taxes this year.
Through Lone Star College-Kingwood's Academy for Lifelong Learning (ALL), the AARP Volunteer Tax-Aide will help people prepare and electronically file their federal income tax returns at the East Montgomery County Improvement District in New Caney. This service is available on a first-come, first-served basis from 9 a.m.-1 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays Feb. 5-April 11. Services are not available on March 12 and 14. Appointments are not accepted.
"The purpose of this program is to assist taxpayers, primarily seniors, with completing their tax returns," said Grayson Foster, AARP volunteer.
The nation's largest and free volunteer-run tax counseling and preparation service is open to everyone regardless of their age or income. Clients are asked to bring their 2012 tax documents, last year returns, social security card, and a blank check for refunds to be deposited directly into their bank account for a faster refund.
Volunteers are trained using IRS and AARP developed materials and must pass a comprehensive test with 80 percent correct in three categories: basic, intermediate and advanced tax scenarios.
"LSC-Kingwood has offered this free service for the past six years because many area senior adults do not have the money to have someone help them with their taxes," said Pat Chandler, Academy for Lifelong Learning program manager. "This is a really good service for anyone who needs help with their taxes."
The AARP Foundation supports the AARP TaxAide program with free tax assistance from the IRS. TaxAide began in 1968 and is the largest volunteer-based tax preparation service in the country. The purpose is to assist taxpayers, primarily seniors, complete their tax returns. The program does not require AARP membership and it's open to all taxpayers.
The college's ALL program began in February 2004 and since then, the program has grown to more than 1,000 active members. ALL courses are now offered at the LSC-Atascocita Center. Annual membership is $20 from Sept. 1-Aug. 31 and members can take classes at both locations. All courses offered are free and taught by volunteers; there are no educational requirements.
For more information, call 283-312-1750 or visit http://www.aarp.org/money/taxes/aarp_taxaide/.
Register now for credit classes online through myLoneStar. Classes are offered days, evenings, or weekends in traditional, Internet, video, TV and independent study formats. For more information on how to register online, visit www.lonestar.edu/registration.

The ultimate in clincher versatility.
Speed, ride quality, and durability. These are the characteristics we look for when researching and testing clincher wheelsets. Sure, there is a plethora of choices when it comes to picking a set of new hoops, but narrowing down what's realistic for your personal needs as a cyclist requires a look into what'll actually benefit your style of riding. This was the reason Zipp built its new 30 Clincher Wheels. It's an everyday, do-anything set of wheels for the demanding cyclist who knows that quality should always go hand-in-hand with a solid value.
Zipp used its quarter-century of wheel developing experience to build the new 30s from the ground up. The new wheels were designed with Zipp's proven aerodynamic principles, using what Zipp calls a 'hybrid toroidal' aluminum rim. This means that it bulges out behind the tire for enhanced aerodynamics. The 'hybrid' part essentially means Zipp uses different manufacturing methods than with its 101 clinchers, such as parallel brake tracks rather than sloped ones Like Zipp's other wider-is-better wheel platforms, the 30mm deep rim profile incorporates a relatively wide 21.5mm rim bed for stability, cornering grip, and overall ride comfort.
At the heart of the wheelset is its new hub design, which is 10- and 11-speed compatible. Because the overarching theme of the new wheelset emphasizes reliability, Zipp wanted to engineer a hub that was built to take a beating and keep on spinning as smoothly as the day the wheels arrived from the factory. To create such a hub, Zipp formed the shell from ultra-strong and lightweight 7075 T-6 aluminum. Stainless-steel bearings were then housed within the hubs, ensuring years of silky-smooth riding. Additionally, Zipp built the hubs with a 'precision set' design, meaning no pre-load adjustment is required -- simply fasten the quick-release skewers and hit the tarmac.
To ensure the wheels were able to handle the toughest road surfaces, Zipp laced the 30s with legendary Sapim CX-Ray spokes. These stainless steel ovalized spokes are far and away the best in the industry. They're lighter than most round butted spokes, and the coining process used to produce their aerodynamic shape makes them stronger and very durable. They are anchored to the rims with Sapim alloy nipples. With 18 spokes up front and 20 in the rear, the wheels are plenty stiff for racing yet still provide a comfortable ride.
The Zipp 30 Clincher Wheels are available in Black with White decals. You'll need to select between Campagnolo or Shimano/SRAM compatible freehub options. They come with rim strips and Zipp steel skewers.

A great wheelset for training
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I have used these wheels for over a year as my training wheels. They are perfect for training because they are pretty sturdy and require little maintenance. No matter what type of road or weather you throw at this wheelset they will come out unscathed, true and hubs still rolling smoothly.
The front wheel weighs in at 765g and the rear wheel weighs 890g.
weight of this wheel?
Please let me know the weight of this wheel
Do these wheels have sealed bearings or do you have to grease them?
Is a 25mm or 23mm tire recommended for these wheels?
Hey Stuart,
The wider rim width of the 30s would maximize the performance of both tire widths, but each would give you a different ride characteristic. 23mm may be slightly more aero, but the 25mm will grip better and offer a smoother ride. So in the end it is going to be your personal preference. I think smooth is fast, so for myself I find the 25mm tires to roll very quick. Just make sure to check your frame for clearance, however most frames are fine with 25mm these days.
This price its for the set? front and Rear? Set weight please.
What is the recommended maximum rider...
What is the recommended maximum rider weight for these wheels?
Hey thanks for the question,
Zipp has recommended the maximum rider weight for these wheels is 250 pounds. If you have any additional concerns, contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com.

disculpa mi ignorancia, el valor es por el par. y son compatibles con cualquier tipo de juego de cambios. GRACIAS.

Categories: Legal Theory and Jurisprudence Legal History
Instructor(s) Mertz, Elizabeth, Macaulay, Stewart
Sociology of Law: The Law in Action
What happens after a court hands down an opinion, or a legislature enacts a statute? In this class, we take the next step, and examine law "on the ground," as it really takes place in people's lives. For example, we read studies of police interrogation, domestic violence, and divorce lawyers. We study the law in action not only within courts and legislatures, but in administrative processes, in corporations, among rock & roll fans, and in the regulation of drunk driving. We find out about lawyers in Silicon Valley, and ask about how the legal profession itself has handled challenges surrounding diversity, ethics, globalization, and changes in the practice of law. A term paper of 25-35 pages is the minimum class requirement. The class is jointly taught by Professor Macaulay and Professor Mertz, using the textbook "Law in Action" (Macaulay, Friedman & Mertz).

LOS ANGELES, CA – Today, MALDEF President and General Counsel, Thomas A. Saenz, released the following statement in response to President Obama's decision to provide relief to undocumented youth who have lived in the United States for most of their lives. According to a memo from Secretary Napolitano, on a case-by-case basis, undocumented youth shall be immune from deportation through deferred action for two years renewable, and be able to obtain work authorization, if they came to U.S. before the age of sixteen, and are currently under thirty; have resided in the country for at least five years previous to this decision; are currently in school, have graduated from high school, or received a GED; and have not been convicted of a felony or serious misdemeanor. Stated Thomas A. Saenz, MALDEF President and General Counsel:
"Today's bold Obama Administration announcement holds out the promise of significant, even transformative, benefit to the entire nation by ensuring that some of our most capable and committed young people are finally given the opportunity to work and to safely contribute to our economic competitiveness and our national development. Today's announcement is the clear product of the hard work of those same DREAM students to enlighten the nation and its policymakers. We look forward to swift, fair, and comprehensive nationwide implementation of the important administrative steps announced today on this thirtieth anniversary of the prescient Supreme Court decision in Plyler v. Doe, which established the importance to our national future of educating all students. This administrative action is consistent with the DREAM Act, supported by a majority of both houses of Congress in 2010 but blocked only through a craven Senate exercise of the hoary power of filibuster. Congress should move swiftly to enact the DREAM Act as a longterm guarantee and protection of the powerful national resource embodied in the DREAM student population. We also call upon Governor Mitt Romney to commit, if elected, to following the wise national policy announced today as a policy that is in the clear best interests of the entire nation."
Founded in 1968, MALDEF is the nation's leading Latino legal civil rights organization. Often described as the "law firm of the Latino community," MALDEF promotes social change through advocacy, communications, community education, and litigation in the areas of education, employment, immigrant rights, and political access.

Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner will testify before the Financial Services Committee on Thursday about efforts to implement regulatory reforms and identify emerging threats to the nation's financial stability.
Secretary Geithner will deliver to the Committee the annual report of the Financial Stability Oversight Council (FSOC), which was established by the Dodd-Frank Act to identify, monitor, and address potential threats to U.S. financial stability. The FSOC is composed of the Treasury Secretary, who serves as the chairman, the heads of eight federal financial regulatory agencies, and an independent member with insurance expertise. Along with these 10 voting members, the FSOC also has five non-voting members. The law requires the FSOC chairman to appear annually before the Financial Services Committee to report on the activities of the FSOC, significant market developments, and an assessment of those developments on the stability of the U.S. financial system.
Financial Services Committee Chairman Spencer Bachus said, "The FSOC was created more than a year ago as the systemic risk regulator of the financial system. Congress has a vital role in overseeing the progress of the Council to monitor potential threats to financial stability and coordinate efforts among the federal financial regulators. This is an opportunity for Congress to hear about the progress to date in harmonizing international regulatory reforms, the challenges facing the U.S. financial system, and the actions taken by the Council."
The hearing will take place on Thursday, October 6 at 2 p.m. in room 2128 Rayburn.

Leah, I think the lady in red from that group picture you posted is the very pregnant Natalie (BB9). Her unborn son is due early March, I believe.
