- n. Speculation in stocks, etc.; stock-jobbing.
- n. dated, trading Stock exchange business; especially, stockjobbing, manipulation of securities prices.

- From French, from agioter ("to practice stockjobbing"), from agio (Wiktionary)
"Paris without the permission of Government, being suspected of stockjobbing (agiotage)."
Complete Project Gutenberg Collection of Memoirs of Napoleon
"The agiotage, of course, was the profit of the bankers and brokers; a sum estimated at six millions of dollars a year, or ten per cent. on the exchanges of the country, which McDuffie, in his celebrated report, estimated at sixty millions annually."
"An order was directly signed by Louis, according to which the police commissary, Chazot, was to arrest the manufacturer Leboure, of Lyons, and put him into a post-chaise, under the care of two gendarmes, who were to see him safe to Lyons, where he was to sign a promise of not returning to Paris without the permission of Government, being suspected of stockjobbing (agiotage)."
"Therefore, upon his return to Paris in April, 1785, he made a series of attacks upon agiotage, or stock jobbing, most effectively assaulting the Compagnie des Eaux and the Banque de St. Charles."
"The situation then became the more critical as he had gradually risked all the money he disposed of in the terrible agiotage going on in Rome, tempted thereto by the prospect of huge profits and perhaps indulging in the hope that he might win back by money the city which had been torn from him by force."
"They more than intimated that the great of the land were mixed up in the disgraceful agiotage that had led to these serious difficulties, and that all this brilliant dust of a civilizing expedition to a distant El Dorado was raised about the Emperor by his entourage to conceal from him what was going on nearer home."
"Nearly all of them built, erected huge houses, entire streets of them, for purposes of sale; but they also gambled in land, selling plots at large profit to petty speculators, who also dreamt of making large profits amidst the continuous, fictitious rise brought about by the growing fever of agiotage."
"* The situation then became the more critical as he had gradually risked all the money he disposed of in the terrible agiotage going on in Rome, tempted thereto by the prospect of huge profits and perhaps indulging in the hope that he might win back by money the city which had been torn from him by force."
"What they mean by peace is agiotage, shares at a premium, and bubble companies."
"This cumulation of public securities in the market, within a short time threw them all into discredit, and gave rise to an agiotage, highly injurious to commerce and agriculture. "

I have found "alternatives" that are just as good if not superior to Microsoft and Adobe products.

I have Norton Security Suite 5 provided by Comcast. I am trying to get iTunes Wi-Fi sync to work with my network, and Apple suggested that I make sure TCP ports 123 and 3689, as well as UDP ports 123 and 5353 are open. I played around with the settings in Norton, but nothing seems to make a difference. Perhaps I am performing the task incorrectly. Can anyone provide me with info on how to open these ports or an outline for doing so? Note Apple didn't mention whether the port openings must be inbound or outbound, but I imagine inbound. Note also that the computer that iTunes is installed on is the same computer in my network that has Norton (provided by Comcast) on it.
please try this out:
1. Open Norton 360
2. Click on Settings
3. Go to Firewall Settings -> Program Rules tab
4. Find iTunes on the list
5.Click on the iTunes line and click on Modify, a new window will open
6. Click on Add
7. In the Add Rule wizard, select the Allow option, and then click Next
8. Select the to and from connection, and then click Next
9. Select Any computers, and then click Next
10. Select the protocols and ports that the rule should allow
11. If you want the logs for this rule to be saved, check Create an event log entry, and then click Next.
12. In the "What do you want to call this rule?" box, type a name for the rule, and then click Next
13. Review the new rule settings, and if they are correct, click Finish
14. Click Move Up to move the rule to top, and make it a higher priority
15. Click OK / Apply and close Settings.
Let us know the results.

Thank you for the very clear directions; I really appreciate it. I followed the steps, but even after restart, I still could not sync with iTunes over WiFi. From the Apple message boards, this is a very common problem experienced by numerous people, likely attributed to a mix of buggy software from Apple and router settings (a network engineer has been posting to the Apple board, and even he can't get the silly thing to work, which indicates it's more of an iTunes software problem than router issue).
Anyway, I just wanted to try opening the specific ports Apple recommends. When I couldn't get Wi-Fi sync to work, I reverted back to Allow for the iTunes entry, which should open the necessary ports.
Thanks again.
Did you try what I suggested on your other post?

I think it would be detrimental to play your own division often, the teams know each other enough already.
It probably has to do with how close the stadiums are to each other, though.

The California Current System is a coastal upwelling biome, as found along the eastern margins of all major ocean basins. These are among the most productive ecosystems in the world ocean. The California Current Ecosystem LTER (32.9°, -120.3°) is investigating nonlinear transitions in the California Current coastal pelagic ecosystem, with particular attention to long-term forcing by a secular warming trend, the Pacific Decadal Oscillation, and El Niño in altering the structure and dynamics of the pelagic ecosystem. The California Current sustains active fisheries for a variety of finfish and marine invertebrates, modulates weather patterns and the hydrologic cycle of much of the western United States, and plays a vital role in the economy of myriad coastal communities.

EDIT// I thought this could fit the theme of outsiders! :)
I have always loved sojushots' amazing illustration "let down your hair", and now it inspired me to write this song. It's a bit darker than the original story of rapunzel, just like the illustration. The same story, different ending! :))
I would love love love loove it if someone would add some accordian or strings to this song, you know, to build it up bigger, and then maybe in the final verses also some drums..... it would be awesome...... ;)
Here are the lyrics:
A man came across this old tower one day It was straight like from a book he once read He lifted his head up and saw this young lady And here's what the lady said:
CHORUS "Moi je m'appelle mademoiselle Noir Et comme vous pouvez le voir Je ne souris, ni ris, ni vis Et c'est tout ce qu'elle a dit"*
The man was so scared he could only run away He ran to the town and then said: "I just saw a lady with the longest dark hair And I think she's a living dead!"
The people, so scared, took their guns and their swords They ran to the tower and then They saw the pale lady and felt a great fear When they heard how she said it again:
The people, they knew what this all was about She was clearly a demon from hell They decided to set her long hair on fire In the end it would burn her as well
But the lady was no demon she was a lonely soul Just like in that book they once read Still waiting for her prince while her hair was on fire The one last time she said:
(*"Me, my name is miss Black And like you can see I don't smile or laugh or live" And that's all she said.)

Just a little diddy I recoeded messing around on a new keyboard I got.
the music of this REmix was born from finding the REmix made by TheMetafictionist of a piano/drum loop made by GwenInterrupted. I took part of it, slowed it down, and built a new progression on top of it. this REmix also uses a drum loop, also made by GwenInterrupted, which was sampled from a RECord made by Krrr.
REmix production, arrangement, piano, guitar, synthesizer, additional drum programming: meeeeeeeeeeee
this is the instrumental version of the REmix i made earlier this summer. decided to put the instrumental version on here, in case anyone finds a REmixable use for it.
Cornelius the cat was an eccentric fellow,
Dressed in all the colours from blue to yellow,
With patterns never seen on a feline before,
Clothes colourful and brash, he did so adore!
He was shunned by his peers for his curious dress,
And even his family thought his style was a mess,
For his taste in loud colours went beyond what he wore,
Bold colours could be seen on his walls and his floor.
No visitors came calling, or rang on the phone,
So Cornelius spent most of his time all alone,
"I won't change who I am for anyone " he said,
As he played with a ball of bright orange thread.
He did have one cousin who's taste was the same,
Cornelius kept his portrait in a colourful frame,
But his cousin would hide his penchant for loud colours,
Dressing plainly in public to be just like the others.
While Cornelius could envy his cousin at times,
Getting phone calls and visitors would be so sublime!
But changing who he was simply to get along,
Going against his true nature just seemed so wrong.
For Cornelius the cat enjoyed being unique,
Looking like everyone else wasn't such a feat,
For what was so special about all being the same?
Cornelius thought not standing out was a shame.
So Cornelius will stay in his colourful home,
Without any visitors or calls on the phone,
And wear colours with patterns that are both bold and brash,
And continue to be different from all other cats!
I just think that the Chibirecorders that SandyNgu did are just AWESOME! So I just decide to do a record that include all the amazing drawings, I think about the Hitrecord Road, because that's exactly what we are doing, we are walking in the same path, we are all RECORDING, so thanks Sandy for the inspiration and I hope you all like it! Hugs and Good Night guys!!!!
We have here from left to right: Joe, Lula, Dan, Tea, Jared, wirrow, Marke, Metaphorest, Matt, GabyVaughan, Ryan Patrick, Proi, Aszarkowski, Ginella, Ray Perez, Niki and gweninterrupted :)
Just a very simple little video/slideshow of my poem for mirtle's series of drawings. It could be a lot more awesome with even some simple animation? <3

Visions for Vacancies: Pennsylvania Avenue Opening
A weekly column asking readers what types of businesses they'd like to see in vacant storefronts around Glen Ellyn.
Businesses come and go. So we wondered what Glen Ellyn readers would like to see fill some of the vacant locations around town.
Located adjacent to the downtown Glen Ellyn post office, this location on Pennsylvania Avenue has a very official feel to it with the ornate doors for the entrance.
The location is across from Honey Café, next to a hair salon and has street parking.
What type of business do you think would be a great addition to the downtown and would do well at this location?
Let Glen Ellyn Patch know! Share your vision for this Pennsylvania Avenue vacancy in our comments section.

So, this week I came across this site after hearing the founder of the project on the radio:
And honestly? It sounds too ambitious to me, and I doubt they'll be able to get this of the ground.
On the other hand... maybe an unorthodox approach really is the way to get to the red planet, and they claim they can do it with existing technology. It would be quite amazing if they could pull this off.
But as I'm no expert, any thoughts about the feasibility of this project, or general feelings about the subject?

CH 202 Problem 4.68
(a) How many grams of solute are present in 50.0 mL of 0.488 M K2Cr2O7?
We use the concentration and the volume to get moles, and then convert from moles
to grams using the molar mass:
moles solute:
molar mass of K2Cr2O7 :
grams solute:
(b) If 4.00 g (NH4)2SO4 is dissolved in enough water to form 400 mL of solution, what is the molarity of the solution?
here we calculate M = mol solute/liter solution:
molar mass of solute:
(c) How many mL of 0.0250 M CuSO4 contain 1.75 g of solute?
here, we have a mass and a concentration; convert the mass to moles, and use the concentration and moles to get the volume:
molar mass:
number of moles:
volume = mol/M, so

Can We Say Disgusting!!!!
Thursday, March 31st, 2011Ok, even though I'm not a bacon lover, isn't a bacon sundae going too far! I mean come on, I can understand a bacon sampler, a sandwich and even bacon meatloaf (why someone would want that is beyond me), but a Maple Bacon Sundae?!?!? Maple flavored syrup, vanilla ice cream, and "a generous sprinkle of diced hickory-smoked bacon." Does that sound good to anyone? This is definitely out of control.

CIMMS 2012 Annual Report
Executive Summary Listing of Activities during FY2012 Under the New Cooperative Agreement
Weather Radar Research and Development
At the very center of NOAA's mission are the objectives of achieving a "reduced loss of life, property, and disruption from high-impact weather events", "improved transportation efficiency and safety", and "improved freshwater resource management" (NOAA' s Next Generation Strategic Plan, Long-Term Goal: Weather Ready Nation, pp. 10-14, December 2010). The weather systems involved include severe thunderstorms, tornadoes, tropical storms and hurricanes, and winter cyclones. Those systems produce the high intensity precipitation, strong winds, flooding, lightning strikes, freezing rain, and large snow accumulations that damage property, cost lives, disrupt transportation, and cause other economic dislocation. Reduction of these adverse impacts can result from the availability and use of accurate forecasts of the above weather systems and their associated phenomena, for future periods ranging from several days down to a few minutes. One of the essential starting points for developing those forecasts is the detailed observation of the present state of the atmosphere.
For almost 60 years, remote sensing via weather radar has been a vital source of the necessary observations. The present national weather radar system (WSR-88D) uses reflectivity and Doppler velocity measurements to document the location and movement of the above weather systems, and indicate the time evolution of their precipitation intensity and wind strength. However, this radar system soon will be as old (30 years) as the chronologically and technologically ancient system (WSR-57) that it replaced in 1988. This situation has two crucial implications for NOAA's continued pursuit of its above objectives to achieve a "reduced loss of life, property, and disruption from high impact weather events", "improved transportation efficiency and safety", and "improved freshwater management". First, NOAA and its partners must complete the recently initiated development of the new Multi-Function Phased Array Radar (MPAR) system that will replace the WSR-88D and is incorporating all relevant technological advances during the last 20+ years. Second, since completion of this development activity will require another 7-12 years at its current rate of progression, the ongoing current WSR- 88D upgrades (especially Dual-Polarization) must be brought to fruition as soon as possible.
During the past year, research was conducted at NSSL on:
- Evaluating Dual Pol Precipitation Estimates Using the Q2 Verification System
- Evaluating Dual Pol Precipitation Estimates vs. the Legacy Precipitation Processing System
- QPE Scheme for Merging Observations of Radars Operating at Different Wavelengths
- National Radar Mosaic and Quantitative Precipitation Estimation (NMQ) – Reflectivity Quality Control for the Canadian Radar Networks
- National Radar Mosaic and Quantitative Precipitation Estimation - Radar Bloom and Anomalous Propagation Quality Control
- National Radar Mosaic and Quantitative Precipitation Estimation - Non-Standard Blockage Mitigation
- National Radar Mosaic and Quantitative Precipitation Estimation – Seamless Hybrid Scan Reflectivity Algorithm
- Ground Radar Based QPE Improvement Using Satellite Radar Data
Stormscale and Mesoscale Modeling Research and Development
Research and development for stormscale and mesoscale modeling are essential for NOAA's aforementioned objectives. Use of stormscale and mesoscale models is a major ingredient of the forecasting and nowcasting procedures for high impact weather events, and is expected to grow in the future. The initialization of those prediction models is depending increasingly on wind and other observations from the current weather radar systems. This dependence also is anticipated to expand and therefore is a principal motivation for the weather radar research and development proposed above -- to improve the initialization and hence performance of the prediction models. At the center of this radar-modeling interface is the manner in which radar data are ingested into the models, especially in combination with measurements from other platforms (e.g., satellite, rawinsonde, surface) via "assimilation" procedures. In addition to their predictive roles, stormscale and mesoscale models also are used extensively in a research mode to understand better the behavior of weather systems on those scales. The atmospheric processes that receive particular attention in these simulations include mesoscale dynamics, convective initiation, cloud dynamics and microphysics, and the precipitation process. Also investigated is the sensitivity of the simulation results to the data assimilation procedures. The ultimate goal of such stormscale and mesoscale simulation research is to improve the performance of the operational forecasting models.
During the past year, research was conducted on:
- Research was not conducted within this theme under the new cooperative agreement.
Forecast and Warning Improvements Research and Development
It is under this theme that the results of the research and development from the two preceding themes are integrated and converted into improved weather forecasts and warnings disseminated to the U.S. public. The ultimate outcome is to provide NWS forecasters routinely with enhanced information on which to base their forecasts. Two areas of highly innovative activity, anchored within the Hazardous Weather Testbed (HWT), dominate this effort – the Experimental Forecasting Program and the Experimental Warning Program. Activity within this theme also is dominated by the training activities of CIMMS scientists at the Warning Decision Training Branch.
During the past year, research and training was conducted on:
HWT Forecasting Experiments:
- Severe Desk Component
- Convective Initiation Component
HWT Warning Experiments:
- Warn-on-Forecast Real-Time Three-Dimensional Data Assimilation (3DVAR)
- GOES-R Component
- Multi-function Phased Array Radar (MPAR) Component
- AWIPS2 Integration
Additional NSSL Projects:
- The Multi-Year Reanalysis of Remotely Sensed Storms (MYRORSS)
- Warn-on-Forecast Real-Time Data Assimilation Experiment
- Multi-Radar/Multi-Sensor (MR/MS) Algorithm Development
- The Severe Hazards Analysis and Verification Experiment (SHAVE)
- 2012 OUNWRF Experiment
NWSTC Projects:
- Graphical Forecast Editor
- Advanced Training Development
CAPS Project:
- Development of a Short-Range Realtime Analysis and Forecasting System Based on the ARPS for Taiwan Region
Impacts of Climate Change Related to Extreme Weather Events
Here, we are concerned with the regional and global climate system context of mesoscale and stormscale weather variability, and especially the functioning of what now is termed the weather-climate interface. The genesis and trends of extreme events are of particular interest, given society's current concerns about climate maintenance and change. The optimum path forward will require an appropriate combination of observational (using fine resolution data) and modeling (emphasizing convection) research. This theme also addresses the NOAA objective of achieving "improved scientific understanding of the changing climate system and its impacts" and "assessments of current and future states of the climate system that identify potential impacts and inform science, services, and stewardship decisions" (NOAA's Next Generation Strategic Plan, Long-Term Goal: Climate Adaptation and Mitigation, pp. 5- 10, December 2010).
During the past year, research was conducted on:
- Research was not conducted within this theme under the new cooperative agreement.
Societal and Socioeconomic Impacts of High Impact Weather Systems
This theme contributes to several of NOAA's objectives - - providing "mitigation and adaptation choices supported by sustained, reliable, and timely climate services"; achieving "a climate-literate public that understands its vulnerabilities to a changing climate and makes informed decisions"; and furnishing "services meeting the evolving demands of regional stakeholders" (NOAA's Next-Generation Strategic Plan, Long- Term Goal: Climate Adaptation and Mitigation, pp. 5-10, December 2010). Much of the effort here is motivated and fed by results obtained under the Forecast and Warning Improvements and Extreme Weather-Climate Change Impacts themes that, in turn, are built around the core of the more basic Weather Radar and Stormscale/Mesoscale Modeling Research and Development. The goal here is to facilitate the mitigation (enhancement) of the adverse (beneficial) social and socioeconomic impacts of high- impact weather systems and regional/seasonal-scale climate variations. Thus, our contributions to this theme are part of NOAA's crucial ultimate interface with society, and therefore will reflect the continuing and increasing involvement of OU social scientists.
During the past year, research was conducted on:
- 2012 Phased-Array Radar Innovative Sensing Experiment (PARISE)
Public Affairs and Outreach
CIMMS education and outreach activities help NOAA achieve its objectives of providing "an engaged and educated public with an improved capacity to make scientifically informed environmental decisions" and making "full and effective use of international partnerships and policy leadership to achieve NOAA's mission objectives" (NOAA's Next Generation Strategic Plan, Engagement Enterprise Objective, pp. 30-32, December 2010). CIMMS location and role within the OU-NOAA National Weather Center (NWC) has embedded it within a wide-ranging and ongoing set of education and outreach activities that will draw continuously on the knowledge developed within the five above research themes. Those activities (a) involve local and national outreach to the general public, (b) extend across all levels of formal education, and (c) provide post- doctoral and professional development opportunities for individuals in careers related to the atmospheric sciences.
During the past year, public affairs and outreach activities included:
- No activity was conducted here under the new cooperative agreement.
The following awards were bestowed in the past fiscal year:
- CIMMS Scientist at NSSL Adam J. Clark received an Editor's Award for the American Meteorological Society journal Weather and Forecasting.
- CIMMS Scientists at NSSL Valliappa Lakshmanan (Leader), Jeffrey Brogden, Kimberly Elmore, Charles Kerr, Travis Smith, Lulin Song, Gregory Stumpf, Robert Toomey, and Thomas Vaughan, along with NSSL Scientists Kurt Hondl, Robert Rabin, and Jian Zhang, received the Innovator Award from the OU Office of Technology Development. The citation includes the following statement: "This groundbreaking (WDSS-II) software is used worldwide to help predict weather phenomena including hail, precipitation, mesocyclones, and tornadoes. Used by private companies, research labs, National and International governments across the globe, this technology provides users across the world with the information needed to make property and life-saving decisions in the event of hazardous weather."

Windows domain
This article relies on references to primary sources. (January 2010) |
A Windows domain is a collection of security principals that share a central directory database. The central database is usually maintained by a proprietary Microsoft product or technology, known as Active Directory starting with Windows 2000,[1] Active Directory Domain Services in Windows Server 2008 and Server 2008 R2, also referred to as NT Directory Services on Windows NT operating systems, or NTDS. Each person who uses computers within a domain receives his/her own unique account, or user name. This account can then be assigned access to resources within the domain.
Contents |
Configuration [edit]
Computers can connect to a domain easily via LAN, or via WAN using a VPN connection. Users of a domain are able to use enhanced security for their VPN connection due to the support for a certification authority which is gained when a domain is added to a network, and as a result smart cards and digital certificates can be used to confirm identities and protect stored information.
Domain controllers [edit]
In a Windows domain, the directory resides on computers that are configured as "domain controllers." A domain controller is a Windows or Samba server that manages all security-related aspects between user and domain interactions, centralizing security and administration. A Windows Server domain is generally suited for businesses and/or organizations when more than 10 PCs are in use. A domain does not refer to a single location or specific type of network configuration. The computers in a domain can share physical proximity on a small LAN or they can be located in different parts of the world. As long as they can communicate, their physical position is irrelevant.
Integration [edit]
Where PCs running a Windows operating system must be integrated into a domain that includes non-Windows PCs, the free Open Source package Samba is a suitable alternative. Whichever package is used to control it, the database contains the user accounts and security information for the resources in that domain.
Active Directory [edit]
Computers inside an Active Directory domain can be assigned into organizational units according to location, organizational structure, or other factors. In the original Windows Server Domain system (shipped with Windows NT 3.x/4) machines could only be viewed in two states from the administration tools; computers detected (on the network), and computers that actually belonged to the domain. Active Directory makes it easier for administrators to manage and deploy network changes and policies (see Group Policy) to all of the machines connected to the domain.
Workgroups [edit]
Windows Workgroups, by contrast, is the other model for grouping computers running Windows in a networking environment which ships with Windows. Workgroup computers are considered to be 'standalone' - i.e. there is no formal membership or authentication process formed by the workgroup. A workgroup does not have servers and clients, and hence represents the Peer-to-Peer (or Client-to-Client) networking paradigm, rather than the centralized architecture constituted by Server-Client. Workgroups are considered difficult to manage beyond a dozen clients, and lack single sign on, scalability, resilience/disaster recovery functionality, and many security features. Windows Workgroups are more suitable for small or home-office networks.
