The G12 Crampon by Grivel is a classic 12-point crampon designed for general mountaineering, alpinism, mixed ice and rock climbing, and moderate waterfall routes. The four points that are perpendicular to the crampon rails, prevent shearing in soft snow and improve security while descending (facing outward). The crampons are fully adjustable by hand, without tools and one size fits all. G12 is easily folded for transportation.

Uma inornata
|Scope: Global
Language: English
|Scientific Name:
|Uma inornata Cope, 1895
Common Name(s):
|Taxonomic Notes:
|Was under the family Iguanidae.
Based on electrophoretic analyses, Adest (1977) concluded that Uma scoparia, Uma notata, and Uma inornata comprise a single species (Uma notata) (Adest 1977). Stebbins (1985, 2003) maintained the three taxa as distinct species. Phylogenetic relationships inferred from mtDNA sequences indicate that Uma notata rufopunctata is more closely related to Uma inornata than to Uma notata notata (Wilgenbusch and de Queiroz 2000, Trepanier and Murphy 2001). Trepanier and Murphy (2001) concluded that for the northern species of Uma existing data support either a two-species arrangement (Uma scoparia, Uma notata) or five-species classification (Uma scoparia, Uma notata, Uma inornata, and Uma rufopunctata, plus an undescribed species from Mohawk Dunes, Arizona). Trepanier and Murphy prefered the latter arrangement and stated that a description of the Mohawk Dunes species is in progress. Crother et al. (2003) adopted the taxonomy preferred by Trepanier and Murphy.
|Red List Category & Criteria:
|Endangered B1ab(iii)+2ab(iii) ver 3.1
|Year Published:
|Date Assessed:
Needs updating
|Hammerson, G.A.
|Cox, N., Chanson, J.S. & Stuart, S.N. (Global Reptile Assessment Coordinating Team)
Listed as Endangered, in view of its extent of occurrence of less than 5,000 km² and area of occupancy of less than 500 km², with all individuals in fewer than five locations, and a continuing decline in the extent and quality of its habitat.
|Previously published Red List assessments:
|Range Description:
|This species is endemic to southern California in the United States. Its geographic range is restricted to the Coachella Valley, Riverside County, California, at elevations from near sea level to about 490 m (1,600 feet) (Pough 1973, Stebbins 2003). The historical, presettlement range extent has been estimated as encompassing about 839 sq. km (324 sq. miles) (see USFWS 1980).
|Countries occurrence:
Native:United States (California)
|Additional data:
|Range Map:
|Click here to open the map viewer and explore range.
|The number of distinct occurrences has not been determined on the basis of recently developed criteria. The species is known from more than 90 collection sites, but these represent a much smaller number of distinct, extant occurrences. The three disjunct dune systems of the Coachella Valley Preserve encompass almost all of the remaining occupied habitat, each dune system could be regarded as a single occurrence; hence there may be just a few remaining viable occurrences. The total adult population size is unknown. Turner (cited by USFWS 1980) recorded densities of 4.4 to 45 individuals per hectare in suitable habitat. On a 2.25 ha plot, known population size varied from about 20 to 330 lizards (9 to 147 lizards per ha) over several years (Barrows et al. 1995). Assuming 50 sq. km of occupied habitat (representing the 19 sq. miles of remaining optimal habitat) and 1,000 adults per sq. km (10 per ha), the total adult population size would be around 50,000, which may or may not represent the correct order of magnitude. More than 50% of the historical habitat had been lost by the mid-1970s (see USFWS 1980). During the 1980s and 1990s, approximately 75% of this species' habitat was lost. USFWS (1990) categorized the status as "declining." Populations fluctuate with environmental variations and natural fluctuations in habitat (Barrows et al. 1995). As of 1999, populations were regarded as relatively stable (California Department of Fish and Game) or at least not declining so rapidly under the existing habitat conservation plan.
|Current Population Trend:
|Additional data:
|Habitat and Ecology:
|This lizard inhabits sparsely vegetated windblown sand dunes and sandy flats; it requires fine, loose sand for burrowing; vegetation usually is scant, consisting of creosote bush or other scrubby growth (Stebbins 2003), but perennial plants and the annual plant Dicoria canescens are important in providing shelter, plant and insect foods, and other benefits (Durtsche 1995). See also Turner et al. (1984) for habitat information. Individuals seek shelter underground, often in abandoned rodent burrows, or bury themselves in sand.
|Major Threat(s):
|Its small historical range is now much reduced due to agricultural and urban development; its habitat has been degraded by stabilization of dunes by planted windbreaks; at least 80 to 90% of the habitat has been lost. The remaining habitat is fragmented by roads and railroad cuts. Research during the 1990s found that sand migration due to winds may affect long-term survival of this species at two of the sections of the Coachella Valley Preserve; the dunes may be moving out of the conservation areas. Conservation of these crucial blow-sand sources is being addressed in the new Coachella Valley Multispecies Habitat Conservation Plan and the development of a Conceptual Area Protection Plan. The result will be purchase of additional sand sources and sand transport corridors to ensure an adequate supply for the lizard. [from California Department of Fish and Game]
|Conservation Actions:
|The 3,709 acre Coachella Valley National Wildlife Refuge was established by the US Fish and Wildlife Service in 1985 to protect the lizard. The Coachella Valley Preserve, cooperatively managed by The Nature Conservancy, Bureau of Land Management, California Department of Parks and Recreation, California Department of Fish and Game, US Fish and Wildlife Service and the Center for Natural Lands Management, encompasses an additional 16,405 acres of Fringe-toed Lizard habitat adjacent to the Refuge (Coachella Valley National Wildlife Refuge website). The preserve encompasses three disjunct sites (Thousand Palms, Willow Hole, and Whitewater River), each with a discrete source of windblown sand. Collectively, the protected sites encompass a very small percentage of the lizards' original range. Few lizards now exist outside these protected areas.

The instructions provided by Sherwood say nothing of coating each area of the dash for the kit to be applied to immediately upon opening the swab. This is critical. I did each area prior to installing that piece and the swab dried before I could complete the project. Fortunately, customer service was able to have another swab shipped from Sherwood and I was able to complete the project. These swabs are only available from the manufacturer. Otherwise it was an easy install.

We talk in studio with Sarah James, a native Gwich'in from Arctic Village, Alaska, USA, and a board member of the International Indian Treaty Council. She was awarded the Goldman Environmental Prize in 2002, together with Jonathon Solomon and Norma Kassi. They received the prize for their struggles for protection of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) from plans of oil exploration and drilling. Oil and gas exploration would disturb the life cycle of the Porcupine caribou, a foundation of the Gwich'in culture for 20,000 years.

All the way from Hungary, we had on a Euro beauty this week with some serious Monster Curves. Her name was Amirah Adara, and we fell in love with her right from the start of this one. When we first saw Amirah, she was a vision of beauty in this incredibly HOT blue lingerie outfit. Amirah wasted no time showing off her amazing body, as she gave us a sexy striptease. Not only was Amirah gorgeous, but she had a world-class ass that was only accentuated further by her slim and petite frame. When Mick arrived, she wasted no time pleasing that hungry butt and sat right on his face. Mick ate that pussy and ass and got her really heated up.

Amirah returned the favor by giving him an intense blow job that had him dying to get in that HOT Euro pussy. Mick pounded that sweet snatch all over the apartment, and Amirah rode his cock like only a veteran from Hungary could. This smoking lady was the personification of SEXY. She worked that dick overtime, as she made herself climax several times. Then when Mick couldn't take anymore of that sweet pussy, he pulled out and blew his load all over her pretty face. You won't want to miss one second of this big butt wonder!

Bern Convention
The aim of this convention is to ensure the conservation of European wildlife and natural habitats by means of cooperation between States.
Council Decision 82/72/EEC of 3 December 1981 concerning the conclusion of the Convention on the conservation of European wildlife and natural habitats (Bern Convention).
The European Community is a contracting party to the Convention on the conservation of European wildlife and natural habitats adopted at Bern on 19 September 1979.
Wild flora and fauna constitute a natural heritage of great value that needs to be preserved and handed on to future generations. In addition to national protection programmes, the parties to the Convention consider that cooperation should be established at a European level.
The Convention is intended to promote cooperation between the signatory States in order to conserve wild flora and fauna and their natural habitats and to protect endangered migratory species.
The parties undertake to:
- promote national policies for the conservation of wild flora, wild fauna and natural habitats;
- integrate the conservation of wild flora and fauna into national planning, development and environmental policies;
- promote education and disseminate information on the need to conserve species of wild flora and fauna and their habitats.
States will take appropriate legislative and administrative measures to protect the wild flora species specified in Appendix I. The Convention prohibits the deliberate picking, collecting, cutting or uprooting of such plants.
Appropriate legislative and administrative measures must also be adopted to conserve the wild fauna species listed in Appendix II. The following are prohibited:
- all forms of deliberate capture and keeping and deliberate killing;
- the deliberate damage to or destruction of breeding or resting sites;
- the deliberate disturbance of wild fauna, particularly during the period of breeding, rearing and hibernation;
- the deliberate destruction or taking of eggs from the wild or keeping these eggs;
- the possession of and internal trade in these animals, alive or dead, including stuffed animals and any part or derivative thereof.
Any exploitation of wild fauna specified in Appendix III must be regulated in order to keep the populations out of danger (temporary or local prohibition of exploitation, regulation of transport or sale, etc.). The parties are prohibited from using indiscriminate means of capture and killing capable of causing the disappearance of, or serious disturbance to, the species.
The Convention provides for exceptions to the above provisions:
- for the protection of flora and fauna,
- to prevent serious damage to crops, livestock, forests, fisheries, water and other forms of property,
- in the interests of public health and safety, air safety or other overriding public interests,
- for the purposes of research and education, of repopulation, of reintroduction and for the necessary breeding,
- to permit, under strictly supervised conditions, the taking, keeping or other judicious exploitation of certain wild animals and plants in small numbers.
The contracting parties undertake to coordinate their efforts for the protection of the migratory species specified in Appendices II and III whose range extends into their territories.
A standing committee responsible for following the application of the Convention is set up.
The Bern Convention entered into force on 6 June 1982.

Great Expectations Program
Mission Statement
Mount Union Great Expectations Program is a four-year college preparatory program that uses the tenets of a traditional liberal arts institution to prepare students for all aspects of higher education. Instead of solely focusing on financial aid and the application process, this program seeks to prepare each student for a life beyond high school by developing and nurturing the whole person.'
With a grant funded by the Bremer Foundation to establish a partnership between Youngstown City Schools and institutions of higher learning, the Mount Union Great Expectations Program began in 1995 with a group of 8th graders from Youngstown's North Junior High School. Of the original students, 75 percent remained in the program until graduation; 95 percent of those remaining went off to an institution of higher learning; fifty percent matriculated into Mount Union.
Currently, the program works with a group of ninth graders from Wilson High School and will continue with this group until their graduation.
Student Highlights
"Not only did I have the opportunity to visit schools in Atlanta, Boston and Philadelphia, but I had the chance to develop life-long relationships with the other students in the program."
- Tommy Jefferson
- Alicia Hallman
Requirements for participants
- Maintain a 2.5 GPA or above
- Actively pursue a college-prep curriculum
- Attend tutorial sessions when grades fall to a "C" or below
- Attend all summer camps
- Attend most activities planned throughout the year
- Lead a substance free life
- Exhibit exemplary conduct at school, home and within the program
- Posses an open mind and a willing attitude

While wine sales soar, smaller stores aren't drinking in the profitsBy MICHAEL COUSINEAU
New Hampshire Union Leader
April 26. 2014 11:33PM
MANCHESTER -- New Hampshire stores sold more than 26 million bottles of wine in a year's time.
Consumers bought more of the liquid grapes in supermarkets, drug stores and wine stores than they did at the 78-state owned liquor stores.
But state liquor stores actually banked $42.3 million more in wine sales for the year ending last June.
"We're selling a more expensive bottle of wine," said Joseph Mollica, chairman of the State Liquor Commission.
State-run stores averaged $11.30 per bottle vs. $7.65 per bottle at 4,700 licensed wine-sale locations, namely supermarkets, drug stores and convenience stores, according to sales figures analyzed by the New Hampshire Union Leader.
Retail sales were up about 6 percent for the year ending last June. And sales for this fiscal year are running about 4 percent ahead, Mollica said.
"The American palate is more distinctive, and people are buying and choosing higher-end wines to purchase," he said.
But not everybody is sharing in the sales growth.
Last Thursday, The Wine Studio in Manchester began its "store closing sale."
Owner Maureen Adams said the prime reason for closing the store, near the intersection of Hooksett Road and Webster Street, was "increasing competition from the state of New Hampshire."
She said she couldn't compete against special sales held at state stores.
"When they put on a sale, it's lower than it cost me to buy from them," Adams said.
Mollica said private shops buy most of their inventory through the state, receiving 20 percent off the retail price.
"We don't set the prices in their store," he said. "They can sell them as high as they want or as low as they want. We don't set the price in any of the off-premises licensees."
Mollica acknowledged "power buys" state stores offer sometimes price a $57 bottle of wine for $25. He said private stores sometimes can arrange direct-ship deals with specific wineries.
"We don't target any competition in the state," he said. "We're the wholesaler to these small wine shops, and Market Basket and obviously everybody in the state."
Adams said she offered weekly wine tastings and priced many of her wines only a dollar or two above state stores in many cases. When she started eight years ago, Adams said state liquor stores focused on top sellers, and she found other wines for customers.
"It was a great niche" at the time, she said. Adams said it became harder to differentiate her stock, which included more than 600 wines.
Adams, who lives in Merrimack, said she sold between four and five cases a day. Wine sales made up 75 percent of her overall sales with the remainder coming from the sale of glassware, plates, T-shirts and other items. But the store turned unprofitable, and she said she was ready to retire.
Customer Janet Green of Manchester surveyed the merchandise, which was marked down 10 to 30 percent last week.
"I think it's part of what's going on with the economy," Green said. "People can't afford their inventory. Too much competition in grocery stores."
Green said she looked to pick up some gifts. "I like all the mom and pop stores, but they're all closing," she said.
For the year ending June 30, 2013, state liquor stores sold nearly 12.8 million bottles of wine compared to 13.3 million bottles sold at supermarkets, drug stores and at other retailers. Consumers that year bought a total of 1.57 million more bottles at all stores than during the previous year.
Sales in bars and restaurants added nearly 2.2 million more bottles, bringing total sales to 28.3 million bottles for the 2013 fiscal year, a 6.1 percent gain over the previous year. Total wine sales, including restaurants reached nearly $269.2 million, or nearly $15 million more than the previous fiscal year.
At Ceres Street Wine Merchants in Portsmouth, proprietor David Campbell said his sales have been flat in recent years.
He had a simple answer on how he competes with state liquor stores.
"I don't. I complement them," Campbell said Friday.
"When I first started our store here 23 years ago, I noticed a need for someone with specific knowledge in fine wines, and that's what I do. I sell fine wine and let them sell everything else," said Campbell, who calls his business the state's oldest and largest private wine shop.
Campbell said his wine sales average about $25 a bottle and has some vintages that run upward of $5,000. He said his business has developed a clientele, including many out-of-state summer visitors.
"When you have a fine wine store and you know what you're doing, they come to you," Campbell said.
He said he heard about The Wine Studio closing.
"All I can say, being the oldest operating private wine store, is they come and they go," he said.

Watch Jesse Eisenberg Ask Jess Weixler Out in an Exclusive Free Samples Clip
It's one of the big premieres at Tribeca.
Among the notable premieres at this year's Tribeca Film Fest is the Jay Gammill-directed Free Samples, which stars Jess Weixler (Teeth) as a slacker covering a day-long shift at her friend's ice-cream truck. Still hung-over from the night before and jonesing for a cup of coffee that never comes, Weixler has to deal with a host of quirky customers, including a persistent Jesse Eisenberg, who met Weixler during her debauched night and now hopes to ask her out for an actual date. In this exclusive clip, Eisenberg tries to pitch Weixler on a Mexican restaurant, but she's not quite having it. Free Samples will have its world premiere on April 20 ... and Jesse, if your woo-pitching comes to naught, call Vulture: We'd be happy to treat you to some margaritas.

Click here to view the digital edition. Mining is a global business and Canada is at its financial hub. The Lexpert Leading Canadian Lawyers in Global Mining features articles on current trends and events in the industry and profiles Lexpert-ranked lawyers who provide services to the mining sector. This special edition is distributed at key mining industry events held around the world, including ones held in China, South Africa, England, Australia as well as Canada. Golden Opportunity Geopolitical uncertainty has given a boost to gold markets and Canadian miners. Exploration work and financings are back on the table, and foreign investors are taking notice. Adapting to Climate Change Mining companies are starting to learn that climate change will undermine their own operations. Many are working now to save themselves from enormous future costs. The Mother of Invention With only a tentative recovery in mining, junior explorers are resorting to creative structures like streaming in order to stay in business. Majors, meanwhile, seem content to play the waiting game. New Roads to Riches In a depressed market for commodities, mining companies will have to rely on government funding, P3s and the ambition of local communities to get their projects off the ground. The supplement also includes biographical information about the leading Canadian Mining Lawyers.

Let's All Go to the Louisville Slugger Factory and Other Bullets
It's the beginning of a new week, but I reckon it doesn't feel that way to many folks who may not have work today or tomorrow. I'll have my thoughts on the holiday later today, but, until then, Bullets …
- Former Cub and long-time Red Ryan Freel died on Saturday from an apparent suicide at age 36. He had a number of concussions throughout his career, and there will now be the speculation about the connection between his death and the concussions. It's a sad story among many sad stories.
- A profile on Cubs Minor League Pitching Coordinator Derek Johnson and an early look at the 2013 Draft.
- The MLBullets at BCB look at the Nick Swisher signing, which suggests a team trying to rebuilt and improve for the near-term simultaneously. Dual tracks or twin fronts or something like that.
- And now for the part of the story where a friend or family member shows you some slides from a vacation they took, but which you could not possibly be less interested in …
As I mentioned, we went to the Louisville Slugger Factory and Museum this weekend, which was totally awesome if you're a baseball nerd. The idea that virtually every bat used in MLB and in the minors in a given year is made there in that one facility is just crazy to me. You weren't allowed to take any pictures in the factory part, though, for industry competitiveness reasons, so you won't see any from in there. But don't you worry! I still got some great shots for you!
Here's me out front, trying to do the that-guy-is-holding-the-thing-up-oh-wait-it's-just-a-camera-trick-except-we-failed-at-it thing:
When you walk in to the building, you're greeted with a wall of all of the signatures for bats they've collected over the years, and one of them jumped out at me:
Right next to Ron Tingley, which may be among the best baseball names ever. What I want to know: in 1982, when they were both in the National League, did Ron Tingley ever face Dick Tidrow? And, if so, did the universe collapse in on itself briefly?
The museum part features a bunch of bat history, and game-used bats, and some great players who've been honored:
They had a few of the actual, ready-to-be shipped bats available to view and hold, and I swear to you, this was the first, totally random bat that I pulled:
So, if Starlin hits a walk-off homer to clinch a playoff spot in September, you'll know it was with this bat, and it was because I imbued it with my awesomeness.
They've also got a batting cage there, and I was pleased to see that, in pictorial form, my stance doesn't look so outrageously bad:
I got to use a wood bat for the first time that I can recall – and it's freaking hard. Those bats are heavy. And whose model did I use? Babe Ruth? Ted Williams? Ernie Banks? Nope:
You may not quite be able to see, but among the ten or so choices of Hall of Famers and superstars of today was … Ryan Theriot. Boo-yah. Unsurprisingly, I hit a whole lot of weak grounders to short and a couple bloop singles.
All in all, a totally excellent visit if you're in the Louisville area. And I got a personalized Chicago Cubs bat on the way out, complete with our soon-to-be-son's name (arriving late February/early March). Pretty excited to give him that.

Troy weight
Troy weight has been used to measure gold, silver and other precious metals, dating back to the Middle Ages. There are 480 grains in a troy ounce, and 12 troy ounces in 1 troy pound. In metric units, the troy ounce weighs about 31.1 grams, while a regular ounce is around 28.3 grams.
A troy ounce is slightly heavier than an ordinary ounce: there are 14.58 troy ounces in one conventional pound.
480 grain = 1 troy ounce
12 troy ounce = 1 troy pound
5,760 grain = 1 troy pound
7,000 grain = 1 avoirdupois pound
International Yard and Pound Agreement
In the International Yard and Pound Agreement of 1959, "the National Bureau of Standards and in counterpart standards group in Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa"[1] defined the value of the international grain as 0.00006479891 kilogram, so the exact value of a troy ounce is 31.10348 gram.

This is a great product but I feel it is over-priced. It did give the lazy Jeep 4.0L a little life but I should for &1,300.00. The fit & finish is great. I recommend the Banks Powerpack for the Wrangler but only if you have $1,300.00 to burn. Good product but I wouldn't say it's a good value.

JACKSON, MI - As the #MeToo and Time's Up movements have sparked an international conversation about sexual assault, a Jackson-based nonprofit is working to bring that conversation to the local level.
The Jackson AWARE, Inc. shelter has a number of events and initiatives planned for the month of April, which is Sexual Assault Awareness Month.
The shelter is hosting its 8th annual Sexual Assault Awareness Month Volunteer Recognition Luncheon at noon on Thursday, April 19 at the Commonwealth Commerce Center Ballroom, 209 E. Washington Ave.
The event is open to the public. Tickets cost $25 per person and can be purchased
Saint Laurent Wollpullover In Zopfstrick
or at the door.
Kalimah Johnson, the founder of the Sexual Assault Services for Holistic Healing and Awareness Center in Detroit, will give a keynote address during the luncheon.
The luncheon is designed to not only thank the AWARE's individual volunteers and business supporters, but also initiate a dialogue of sexual assault prevention in the Jackson community, said Angelita Velasco Gunn, executive director of AWARE.
"(Johnson) is going to come and give us a perspective on these high-profile cases we've heard in the news and what we can learn from them and what may be happening here in Jackson," Velasco Gunn said. "How we as a community can mobilize and do something so we don't have victims who are suffering in silence and not being believed."
On April 25, Jackson-area schools and businesses will recognize international "Denim Day."
Students and professionals will wear denim jeans to recognize the international day, which was established in 1997 .
It was created after an 18-year-old woman in Rome was sexually assaulted by her driving instructor. However, the instructor's case was overturned by the Italian Supreme Court because one judge said the victim wore "very, very tight jeans," and would have had to help the instructor remove them.
Area restaurants such as Crazy Cowboy and The Oak Tree will have "Embrace Your Voice" coasters throughout the month of April to support AWARE's mission.
With sexual assault cases against Harvey Weinstein, Bill Cosby and Larry Nassar - in addition to dozens of others - making national headlines in the past year, Velasco Gunn said this year's luncheon is especially relevant.
"It offers us an opportunity as a community to look at that and say 'We don't want that in our community. We don't want that in our backyard,'" she said. "We want safety for all of our residents and we can address what we can do as a community to support victims and hold perpetrators accountable."
In 1750, a teenager named Johannes George Plott carried five Hanoverian Schweisshunds to his residence in the Great Smoky Mountains. These dogs, as well as their descendents, were excellent cold trailers of bear and large animals. They not only found large bear, but could also trap them.
For seven generations, the Plott family bred these cold-trailing dogs and as the family grew, the dogs were distributed throughout the Smoky Mountains. Some people believe that other mountain residents then crossbred the dogs developed by the Plotts with their own dogs. While others believe the dog was a result of an early cross-breeding with a "leopard-spotted bear dog." And still others assert that the dog was crossed with cur dogs.
Whatever the case, it was in the early 20th century that the Plott strain was improved by crossing them with dogs of other lines. Cola Ferguson used Blevins or Great Smokies, which were black-saddled hounds, to cross with his Plotts. The results were known as "Boss" and "Tige," two talented hounds which were mixed with the line used by the Plott family, lending a black-saddled brindle design to the breed. Nearly all modern Plotts can be traced back to these dogs.
Plotts were originally used mainly for hunting mountain lions, bear, and boar, but they were also experts in cornering raccoons. Thus, they suited the needs of raccoon hunters more than those of bear hunters.
The breed was officially named the Plott Hound in 1946, when the United Kennel Club (UKC) recognized it. The Plott is the only coonhound breed recognized by the UKC, which has its roots in foxhounds.
In 1989, the dog's was official designated as the state dog of North Carolina, and in 1998 the breed was admitted into the Miscellaneous class of dogs by the American Kennel Club.

Koch scores winner in historic win, Germans survive anyway
BERNE – With a 1-0 win over Germany in Sunday's relegation action, Austria set up a winner-takes-all showdown with Denmark on Monday for first place in Group G.It was the first time in 75 years that Austria beat Germany in a World Championship game. The Austrians beat their neighbours last time in the 1934 World Championship in Milan, Italy, 2-1.There's only one spot up for grabs this year to stay in the top 16 nations, because Germany, as the 2010 Worlds host, can't be relegated regardless of where it finishes.The Germans will finish either third or fourth in the Relegation Round, depending on the result of their last game against Hungary on Monday. Hungary, which lost to Denmark on Sunday, will go down to Division I, since it cannot finish first in the Relegation Round.Austria was last relegated to Division I in Moscow 2007, and is aiming to avoid the same fate this year."We played a great defensive game, managed to score the goal that was needed and won," said Austria's Oliver Setzinger. "It was an important win."Thomas Koch scored the winner midway through the second period. Austrian netminder Bernd Brückler earned the shutout as Germany outshot Austria 38-26."It was a close game as always against Germany," said Austrian coach Lars Bergström. "It was important to get the lead, which forced them to open up their game and try to create scoring chances. Our defense, including the box play, was great, as was our goaltender."The teams struggled through a tentative, infraction-laden first period with few quality shots in front of the crowd of 3,828 at PostFinance Arena. The Austrians looked like they were playing not to lose, while the Germans didn't exactly go for broke despite having nothing to lose. The best first-period chance came when German goalie Dimitri Pätzold foiled Austrian forward Roland Kaspitz on the doorstep in the final minute.Brückler showed good form early in the middle frame, coming out to stop a hard Christopher Schmidt blast from the center point.The red-and-white squad scored the only goal of the game at 7:41 of the second when Koch took a nifty behind-the-back pass from Thomas Vanek on the rush and fired it past Pätzold's glove. Koch, a shifty 25-year-old winger who plays for Salzburg in the Austrian League, has emerged as a difference-maker in this round, as he also picked up a hat trick and an assist in the 6-0 win over Hungary.The Koch goal seemingly woke the teams up, and the tempo increased. Seconds later, Germany's Michael Hackert and Michael Wolf failed to click on a glorious opportunity in tight on Brückler. However, there was no further scoring in the period.The door opened for the Austrians to increase their lead when they enjoyed a two-man advantage near the midpoint of the third period. However, despite some crisp puck movement and pressure in the German zone, they couldn't outwit Pätzold.With about five minutes left, the German netminder made a great left pad save on Matthias Trattnig and then foiled Oliver Setzinger in tight to give his team a chance. But the Germans couldn't solve Brückler down the stretch, despite generating some late scrambles around his crease and pulling Pätzold for the extra attacker."These have probably been the most stressful ten days of hockey in my life," said Germany's Travis Mulock. "Especially playing for your country and seeing the fans so disappointed. So is everybody on the team. But we just have to go out there, work hard, and hope that the puck will bounce our way."Oliver Setzinger was chosen as Austria's Player of the Game, and Sven Butenschön was chosen for Germany.LUCAS AYKROYD

1. Re: CPU usage 100%pwertz Apr 1, 2012 3:23 PM (in response to kodulkar)
Hi - I would recommend you review the memory section of the technical spec for your board which can be found here. http://downloadmirror.intel.com/15056/eng/DG965RY_TechProdSpec.pdf The spec says your board should support 8GB of DDR2 667mhz memory. It also recommends using memory with SPD and what happens when you use different memory configurations which is what happened when you added the 2GB memory. Regards. Peter
2. Re: CPU usage 100%kodulkar Apr 2, 2012 8:59 AM (in response to pwertz)
I am not clear about the line "It also recommends using memory with SPD and what happens when you use different memory configurations which is what happened when you added the 2GB memory"
Did you mean speed of each memory chip? if that be the case it is working perfect with 3GB memory.
What is the solution for this?
3. Re: CPU usage 100%pwertz Apr 2, 2012 5:42 PM (in response to kodulkar)
Hi - I should have been clearer. Re SPD - Read the note in paragraph 1.4 of the linked specification for a better description than I can give.
I am referring to the capacity not the speed. You have installed both 1GB and 2GB sticks and according to paragraph 1.4.1 when you have different capacities you do not have the most optimum configuration. I would try a matched pair of 1GB memory sticks along with the pair you originally had for a total of 4GB or depending on your budget you may want to buy a pair of 2GB sticks. I would ensure they are 1.8v and meet the SPD requirement of your spec. Your spec has diagrams of how to slot memory of unequal capacity.
Since the only change you have made to the configuration is the addition of the 2GB memory, I have to assume that has caused the usage to go to 100%. Good Luck. Peter

Bulletin No. SU-36/ CU-85/UCS-25
|Reveal Software Upgrade and Report Retention Guidelines
|To notify users of the differences between the current version and the upgrade.
|Affected Employees
|Staff who use Reveal to view, print and download PaySR reports.
|Effective Date
|April 10, 2000
|OSC Actions
|OSC will install new software on the PaySR servers.
|Agency Actions
Advise users of the changes in the Reveal application.
Review agency policies for maintaining electronic or printed copies of Reveal reports.
Adjust procedures, as needed, to correspond to the revised report retention schedule.
|Background Information
|Reveal Reporting software is used to view, print and download PaySR reports. A new version will be installed on April 9, 2000. In addition to several administrative and technical enhancements, some changes will be visible to users and will affect the way reports are viewed and printed.
|New Log In Procedures
To improve overall security, users will enter their login
ID and password to access Reveal. The "Remember Password" option
will not be enabled in the new version. Reveal is currently the only PaySR

the password.
The first time users log in to the new version, they will enter a "startup" password and will then be prompted to change it. The new password must be a minimum of six characters and must contain at least one number OR one non-alphabetic symbol (e.g. &, %, etc.) The "startup" password will be sent to agency payroll officers during the week of April 3, 2000. A logon message will remind users of this requirement when the new version is available.
|Additional Report Generation Information
|Currently, each report generation is identified by a time stamp of when the report was created (e.g. 03/16/2000 at 11:30) In the new version, the time stamp will be followed by an additional identifier such as "Check Date 03/23/2000". This will make it easier to locate and open the appropriate report.
|New Schedule for Availability of Reports in Reveal
|Most reports will be available for three months. A chart is attached that will be used for archiving agency reports in Reveal. OSC will be using an automatic delete process based on this information. It is important that agencies review this schedule and make electronic or printed copies of Reveal reports as needed for agency business practices and records retention.
|Printing Procedures
A new print dialog box will be
available for users. The correct printer needs to be selected or verified
each time a Reveal report is printed. In the current version, the print
dialog box contains a drop-down list of the available printers (HPLJ4,
HPLJ5, etc). The user selects the correct printer from this list each time a
report is printed.
In the new version, this drop-down list is located in the Print Setup dialog box. If the correct printer is not listed on the top line of the Print dialog box, the user should:
1. Click the Setup button in the Print dialog box
2. Click the down arrow in the Specific Printer section of the Print Setup dialog box
3. Click the correct printer
4. Click OK to return to the Print dialog box

Jesus revealed himself to a young, brash, Pakistani Muslim. But he didn't just reveal himself; he turned Naeem Fazal's world upside down.
Moving from Kuwait to Charleston, South Carolina, had been an adventure. Surrendering his life to Jesus Christ was actual treason. And yet, Jesus brought Fazal the most powerful peace he had ever experienced: "It filled the room. It grew roots in my heart and in my soul. It intoxicated me."
In this riveting memoir, Fazal describes how God used extraordinary means to bring a young, underachieving, Muslim immigrant through Desert Storm, across the oceans, into college, and ultimately to pastor a Christian church in North Carolina. He demonstrates that no character flaw, no distance, no cultural chasm is too great for Jesus to reach across.
Fazal is candid about his shortcomings, practical about the challenges of cross-cultural engagement, and ultimately inspiring that God is capable of far more than we have grown to expect. He says, "Jesus consistently, stubbornly refuses to limit himself to my expectations. Which makes getting to know him an unfolding adventure of epic proportions."
Whether you are a Muslim, Christian, or neither, Ex-Muslim makes a compelling case that life with Jesus Christ is a true adventure.

In 2006, with the help of Seacoast Church, the ARC, and Mosaic LA, he planted Mosaic Church in Charlotte, North Carolina. Naeem has been featured inRelevant magazine, Leadership Journal, and Charlottemagazine.

Yes, this book is nothing special. The nearing 90-day time limit and the promise of getting a new book are all that made me crack this one at all. (And yes, I did read all of it but for a few pages that I didn't consider necessary at the end.) Plus I thought I might submit this review for the parish newsletter.
Fazal is not Catholic but that won't keep it from the parish library shelf. There was nothing to offend a Catholic, but nothing to edify one either. Some concepts are foreign to us, such as "church planting" - an individual deciding to open a new church where he wants. Fazal spends at least half the book on how he started his church. Sometimes he doesn't go as far as he needs to on this subject though, and not because a Catholic wants to learn about it. Fazal can be like the teacher you had in high school who answered students' questions with, "We'll cover that later in the semester." Bafflingly, Fazal says on at least two occasions, "That's a story for another book." He has our attention. And he's gone through the trouble of writing a book at all (with Kitti Murray). Why not write the few extra paragraphs or even pages? He'd really rather write a whole new book expanding on what he's already describing? One wonders about his effectiveness as a pastor. But his passion is less in doubt.
Before he writes about that, Fazal of course describes his own conversion story, which, despite the (dubious) supernatural element, I suspect he thinks is more exciting or helpful than it actually is.
For now, I'm craving fiction and will probably choose it for the first time, not counting the few I've done for http://catholicfiction.net.

An experience one night led him to call out Jesus' name. Soon after, Naeem converted to Christianity and has since led countless others to Christ. I love how he pointed out all the things that led to his conversion to Christianity. For example, if the Gulf War did not happen, he would not have come to America and he likely would have never become a Christian. It's a great example of how God is always working behind the scenes to lead people to Him even when we don't realize what He is up to!
I enjoyed reading about his experiences in various American churches and how he came to where he is now--the evangelist at Mosaic, a large and growing church in Charlotte, NC. From a Muslim to the pastor of a large Church--Jesus' grace never ceases to amaze me!
You will not be disappointed by this book. It will cause you to smile, to laugh and maybe to shed a few tears! (Posted on 6/6/2014)
