Ronald Koeman applauds improved home form as Everton look to dispatch Hull
Everton manager Ronald Koeman is delighted his players have learned to love Goodison Park again as the old ground has regained its fortress reputation.
Last season they lost eight times at home, winning just six matches and claiming 23 points, with an increasingly toxic atmosphere in the final few weeks of Roberto Martinez's reign impacting performances on the pitch.
However, since Koeman took over in the summer he has enjoyed an extended honeymoon period as home fans have been rewarded with some impressive performances.
At home the Dutchman's more pragmatic, direct approach has already garnered 31 points from a possible 42 and they have lost just once there in the league in the last 12 months - against Liverpool in December.
In front of their own fans Everton have scored 30 league goals in 14 matches and conceded just 10, bettered only by runaway Premier League leaders Chelsea, second-placed Tottenham and on a par with Manchester United.
It seems rather fitting then that the club have a community-based initiative this season called 'Home Is Where The Heart Is', with their under-23 side trying to raise B#230,000 to fund and develop a supported living initiative for young people in Liverpool.
"If you are afraid to play at home that is the worst thing you can have as a football player," said Koeman, whose side face Hull on Saturday.
"But at home we are producing really good performances and clean sheets and I think it is important.
"The results, they have brought confidence to the team and the fans have confidence in the team.
"It is difficult to always keep that momentum at home but we'd like to do it."
Koeman will start striker Romelu Lukaku, the Premier League's joint top scorer with 19 goals, despite the Belgium international's outspoken comments about the club and revelation he will not sign the new contract on offer which would make him the highest-paid player in the club's history.
The manager was upset by the 23-year-old's words but insists he has not noticed a difference in his attitude in training.
"If any player is not interested in Everton then he will not start. If he shows his commitment to the team, the club and the fans (then) even not signing a new contract is no problem for myself," Koeman said.
Defender Leighton Baines is likely to be fit after recovering from a back injury which he suffered last weekend.
Midfielder James McCarthy is missing with a hamstring problem, while Muhamed Besic is still working his way back to fitness after a long-term knee injury.
Tom Huddlestone, meanwhile, believes Hull head coach Marco Silva's tactical acumen is the key factor behind the midfielder's eye-catching form.
Huddlestone has thrived under Silva, appointed in January and tasked with halting the club's slide back towards the Sky Bet Championship.
The Tigers aim to maintain their momentum on Saturday after last week's home win against relegation rivals Swansea lifted them to within a point of safety.
"It's been good," Huddlestone said ahead of the trip to Goodison Park, where Hull have not won in 65 years.
"It's been enjoyable and he's opened a few of our eyes to different tactics and ways of playing and ideas on the pitch, so it's been very enjoyable so far.
"He's given me a bit more responsibility in possession and out of possession and equally we know as a midfield two or three, if one player goes into a position he knows exactly where the other two should be.
"It just makes your job easier knowing if you go into a certain position, then you're reassured that the cover is behind you."
Hull will chase that elusive away win at Everton without last week's two-goal match-winner Oumar Niasse, ineligible to face his parent club.
Midfielder Evandro is still out after failing to shake off a calf injury which has sidelined him for the last three matches.

The Philadelphia Phillies and Cincinnati Reds are two teams that are floating at or near the bottom of their respective division. Who'll cash on the MLB betting lines as they meet up on Wednesday night?
The Cincinnati Reds Can Win Because…
Starter Mike Leake has actually been a decent road starter. The Reds home stadium isn't necessarily pitcher friendly and it clearly has done no favors for Leake. He has a 6.91 ERA at home this season and has allowed opposing hitters to bat .311. He's given up eight home runs in just 28.2 innings at home compared to just four home runs in 35.0 innings on the road. In terms of his other numbers, Leake has a healthy 2.83 ERA on the road with a 0.97 WHIP.
It's quite debatable whether you want to be laying juice with MLB picks on a team as lousy as the Phillies – even with Cole Hamels on the mound. They are 8-15 when the total of 7 or less this season and they've lost both times they've been a favorite of -125 to -150. Consider the Reds for your picks here.

The Philadelphia Phillies Can Win Because…
They'll have their stud on the mound. Clearly, it's been a fairly rough season for the Philadelphia Phillies. They are dead last in the National League East division standings and their run differential is by far and away the worst number in the majors. However, while they win about 31% of their starts overall, they are 6-5 on the season when Hamels is on the mound. That gives you a very good indication of just how valuable he is to the team. Hamels had a bit of a slow start to the season, giving up 10 earned runs in his first three starts but he's really settled in since then. He has given up just 14 earned runs in his last 56.1 innings pitched. In May, Hamels had a 2.70 ERA and other than his one blow up against the Marlins where he gave up six earned runs in six innings pitched, he hasn't allowed more than two earned runs in seven of his last eight starts.
As for Reds starter Mike Leake, Cincinnati doesn't win too many of his outings. They've lost four straight Leake starts as well as seven of the 10 times he's been on the mound. He's been terrible this month, giving up a whopping 20 earned runs in his last three outings. He has a lofty 6.75 ERA this month and that's a problem.
Although Philadelphia is a bad team, they clearly have a huge pitching advantage here and that's why they are favored by MLB odds.
Baseball Betting Outlook
It's pretty rare that I want to be betting the Phillies but this looks like a good spot. Hamels is hot and he consistently gives his team a chance to win. As for Leake, he has a career 7.41 ERA against the Phillies and his team's records are 1-5. Hamels is a perfect 10-0 against the Reds and his teams are 13-0 when he's on the mound against them. Take the Phillies in this one.
MLB Pick: Phillies -137 at The Greek

Bush boldly faces soaring risks in Iraq
By John Yaukey
WASHINGTON - President Bush is said to have a sly gambler's instincts.
But rare is the high roller who would risk what he has with his unflinching plans to disarm Iraq, remove Saddam Hussein and nurture democracy in a land of oil-rich emirs.
Surging opposition abroad to war in Iraq, threats of terrorist reprisals and a domestic economy shuddering under the uncertainty of it all have molded the looming confrontation into a defining moment for the president.
If all goes well, Bush would emerge vindicated in the first field test of his controversial foreign policy of preemptive attacks to thwart terrorism.
Failure could destabilize the Middle East, entangle the United States in a powder keg region, incite terrorists, terrify the economy and ultimately leave the president vulnerable in 2004.
"I think in many respects Americans are not fully prepared for this, so there's some real risk to it," said Thomas Mann, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution. "I had occasion to chat with a general engaged in this, and his sense was that Americans don't appreciate just how intensely violent this will be. Nor do they appreciate, while the U.S. will almost certainly prevail, the uncertainties that could develop along the way and the difficult situations that have to be managed.''
Terrorist attacks
Perhaps the most worrisome potential outcome of a U.S.-led war in Iraq is the threat of terrorist retaliations.
No paucity of terrorism experts suspect that al-Qaida is watching events in Iraq closely waiting for an opportune moment to strike against Americans.
"This is a spotlight moment for al-Qaida,'' said Daniel Byman, who teaches security studies at Georgetown University. "If Iraq's conventional military means fail to work, al-Qaida can show that terrorism is the best way of confronting the United States.''
Already, Iraq has made some rather grandiose threats, including Vice President Taha Yasin Ramadan's recent boast that he would use suicide attackers against the United States in the event of war.
The Bush administration has tried to counter this by painting the war as a liberation of the Iraqi people.
"The United States has a track record of leaving places better than we found them,'' Secretary of State Colin Powell recently said.
But this relatively new foreign policy is up against centuries of Arab history.
Scholars at Cairo's Al-Azhar University, the leading seat of Sunni Muslim scholarship in the Arab world, recently declared that a U.S. war against Iraq would threaten all Arabs and urged a jihad in response.
In a statement published in Egyptian newspapers, the scholars called the U.S. military buildup in the Persian Gulf the leading edge of a new "crusade," a highly evocative word in the Arab world where ill feelings over the medieval crusades still run strong.
A high civilian body count in a war with Iraq almost certainly would affirm these hostile views across huge swaths of the Islamic world.
Occupying Iraq
Sending U.S. tanks rolling into Baghdad would be a first for a U.S. president, marking the only time the United States has conquered and occupied an Arab nation.
It's an environment fraught with perils rooted in ancient ethnic tensions. Keeping the peace among the armed Kurdish factions in the north, the restive majority Shiites in the south and the Sunni Muslims that form the bulk of Saddam's ruling Baath Party will keep U.S. troops endlessly tied up.
France's ambassador to the United States, Jean-David Levitte, described it as "a very complex place - much like the former Yugoslavia,'' where U.S. troops remain mired in peacekeeping operations with no end in sight.
Initially, American-led forces in Iraq will have three major tasks in Iraq once fighting subsides: securing the vast oil fields, destroying Saddam's chemical and biological weapons and feeding Iraq's 22 million people, most of whom now depend on the government for rations.
Stabilizing the population will be crucial to ensuring that the occupation appears as a humanitarian effort, but the confusion and devastation that follows combat is often when most civilians die in wartime.
War could create as many as 1.5 million refugees, adding to the 1 million Iraqis already displaced.
Failure to restore order to all of this quickly would leave the United States vulnerable to an international rebuke as a brutish colonial giant repeating the mistakes of its European predecessors a century ago.
Economic jitters
Regardless of how well a potential war with Iraq goes, the insecurity before the storm is already spooking the economy.
Airlines, smarting from terrorism and their own mismanagement, are preparing for a 10 percent war-related downturn in business by postponing delivery of new aircraft, deferring wage negotiations and lobbying Congress for yet another relief package.
Consumers have been rattled by surging oil prices, a cooling of the housing market and the staggering loss of more than 308,000 jobs in February.
Equity investors recently fled to the safety of Treasury bonds despite interest rates dipping close to their lowest levels since 1958.
These are hardly theoretical problems for Bush, whose father fell from near 90 percent approval ratings following the Persian Gulf War to defeat in his 1992 re-election bid almost solely because of a recession.
Vulnerable in 2004?
The president's failure to attract a broad international coalition to oust Saddam has emboldened some leading Democrats to take early shots at his foreign policy, potentially foreshadowing what could be central debate in the 2004 presidential campaign.
Doves and hawks alike have not been timid about attacking what some see as a dangerously unilateralist approach that could leave Americans more vulnerable to terrorists.
"The path to a safer world and a more secure America rarely comes from a go-it-alone approach,'' Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., lamented.
Presidential candidate Sen. Joseph Lieberman, D-Conn., recently cited a study that named Bush a greater threat to peace than Saddam, telling voters in New Hampshire "you know something is really wrong with his foreign policy.''
The president is well aware of the multiple fronts on which he could suffer irreparable damage.
And yet since shortly after the Sept. 11 attacks, he has remained unmovable in the position that Saddam represents a risk to U.S. security that he is not willing to gamble with.

The purpose of this site is to shed light on the ideas which have a significant impact on the way we live. I have in mind both political as well as religious and spiritual ideas. In regards to politics, this site operates from the position that particular ideas more strongly influence policy than do others. Whether they are ideas that lead to good government is another question. The United States is today experiencing the consequences of what Eric Voegelin calls "disordered philosophy." One aim I have is to shed light on the nature of the "disorder" affecting many American political activists today, especially on the right. Sane and sober political leadership is dependent on a good intellectual foundation, but today we lack this. To adequately understand our current situation requires that we understand where the breakdown in clear thinking has come from, across the political spectrum.
The static pages on this site are dedicated to discussing the philosophy informing policy making, spirituality and American culture. As concerns politics, policy proposals that are divergent from the proper ends of good government are special targets for consideration. In regards to culture, I am particularly interested in the "turn" of a sort Germans call a "Kehre" since the 1960s. This turn is towards a deepening spiritual and psychological consciousness, and was a significant inspiration of Vatican II. On the blog portion of the site, the home page, I discuss political, social and economic issues, as well as psychological and spiritual ones. There will be an emphasis on shedding light on the judgments informing the stances of various parties involved in political or cultural conflict. Influenced by Alasdair Macintyre, the Catholic moral philosopher, I will be particularly concerned to explore the lineage of the moral judgments informing political stance taking that is informed by bad philosophy. A great deal of activism today on the American right today is confused about the proper ends of good government, and it is a goal of this site to respond to this confusion and shed light on it so that we can return to sane policy making.

Research thrives on data – from gigabytes to terabytes and even petabytes of data, depending on the field or institution. Yet many researchers lack access to the computing power and analytical tools to unlock the insights hidden in these mountains of data.
That's why Microsoft started the Azure4Research (A4R) program in 2013, which brings together forward-leaning research and pioneering applications of the Internet of Things (IoT) in the market. Six times a year, Microsoft invites researchers and educators at top research universities to apply for free Azure cloud computing resources, including the Azure IoT Suite, which provides an easy-to-use platform to connect devices to the cloud.
The latest round of A4R winners represent innovative leaders in areas such as climate research, industrial automation, electrical engineering, and green building technologies. Highlights of the winning IoT solutions include:
- The Rolls-Royce University Technology Centre (UTC) at Sheffield University will explore the collective use of wireless sensor nodes and cloud-based predictive analytics technologies to monitor the performance of machinery typically found in an industrial setting. Researchers will gain a better understanding of the design and performance limitations of wireless sensing and inspire engineering students about the potential of IoT.
- The Tennessee Technological University (TTU) College of Engineering will continue its IoT Platform for engineering, education and research program (IoT PEER), a testbed for education, exploration and research of IoT, based upon Arduino, Raspberry PI and Zigbee technologies. Ongoing projects are focused on the areas of fisheries revitalization and management of 3D printers and projectors in the classroom.
- The University of Liverpool School of Environmental Science is conducting a feasibility study for developing a software service in the cloud that would streamline the development of cross-platform apps for generating climate data. Once completed, researchers will have developed a cloud-based service that consumes various data sources and connects with a variety of apps; a functional model for using apps, algorithms, sensors and open data services to disseminate research data; and a functional prototype demonstrating the value of the framework.
- The Center for Green Buildings and Cities (CGBC) at Harvard University Graduate School of Design is focused on developing new processes, systems, and products that will transform the building industry. As part of the upcoming CGBC HouseZero project, an existing three-story home will be renovated and equipped with a range of technologies, including building automation, data visualization, augmented reality, embedded sensors, machine learning and data analysis.
- Queen's University is researching how to simplify the development and effective use of IoT systems. For this project, researchers will assess the needs of IoT developers and customers, and develop a prototype service that: identifies a customer's needs, provides a list of relevant services upon which the solution to their need is based, and automatically configures the individual apps that make up the solution.
- The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University is researching how data visualization and algorithms could lead to improved management of the generation and distribution of electricity across power grids. Part of the research will involve the use of high performance computing resources to simulate of a power grid containing as many as 100,000 buses.
Winners received a grant for Azure cloud platform resources and infrastructure that enable powerful predictive analytics and management of IoT sensors and devices and see their project to fruition. In return, winners will develop case studies and curriculum for hands-on projects and make them freely available to the academic research community through publication and sharing platforms.
Researchers who solved data-intensive challenges submitted their proposals, and IoT experts from Microsoft Research chose the winning entries. A4R is funded and managed by Microsoft Research.

Pauleen Luna can't see eye to eye with Vic's kids
Actress Pauleen Luna, who recently admitted to dating comedian Vic Sotto, confessed that she still doesn't see eye to eye with the latter's children.
Vic's grown kids Oyo and Danica have been very vocal about their disapproval of their father's relationship with Pauleen, his "Eat Bulaga" cohost and who is 34 years his junior.
Oyo, who is five years older than Pauleen, even posted his views on the issue on his Twitter account but later deleted them.
Pauleen said she would still "respect" how Vic's chidren look at their May-December affair.
"I have not had the chance to see them again, but I look forward to it. It's not as if it's my first time to meet them," she said during a press conference for her latest show "Unforgettable" on GMA 7.
"However, I don't know if they're open to it just yet. As for me, I only have high respect for them," she added.
The actress said she's "very happy" with her relationship with Vic. "I've never experienced seeing and being with (a loved one) every day. I get to mix love with work," she quipped.
"I've already come to my senses—I must value privacy," the actress pointed out.
This could be attributed to the numerous negative comments she has been getting on social networking sites.
Pauleen said she tried not to let these bashers affect her. "People are going to say what they want to say, even though you try to live a really clean life. As long as I'm not doing anything wrong, as long as I'm not stepping on anybody's toes, and I know that no one is hurt by my actions, I'm okay."
Pauleen said she simply deletes negative comments, especially on her Instagram account where she occasionally posts photos of her and Vic together.
She clarified the rumor that Vic gifted her with a brand new house. "It's just not mine. It's my parents'. I only contributed to it a little," she pointed out while insisting that Vic had contributed nothing.
She added: "If he really gifted me with anything, I'd proudly show it off. I was never known to tell lies. I may be more private now, but I don't lie."
In "Unforgettable," Pauleen plays third party to the romance of Anna and Ed, portrayed by Kylie Padilla and Mark Herras, respectively. The series, which also features Phillip Salvador, Benjamin Alves, Polo Ravales, Carmi Martin, Chariz Solomon, Pancho Magno and Timmy Cruz, among others, airs weekdays after "Eat Bulaga."

If writing Holy Scripture were a competition, where authors duked it out to see who could get the most writings into the Bible and whose writings would be the most popular, James, brother of Jesus, would most certainly be among the losers at the bottom.
Seriously, when was the last time someone quoted James to you. And if they did, wouldn't your first thought be, "James who?" People are more fond of the Bible's most valuable players like Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. We love Paul and his promise that nothing can ever separate us from the love of God. We quote Psalm 23 at the bedside of a loved one because it soothes us like a soft song. But James? No. James is one of the unknowns.
James' short little letter is tucked in the back of the New Testament among other no-name letters that rarely see the light of day, like 1 and 2 Peter or Jude. Every year, I hear about people committed to reading the Bible cover to cover, and never once have any of them actually done it. They barely make it into the New Testament, let alone all the way to the back where James hangs out. Go home and open your bible to the Letter of James and I guarantee that it will crackle a bit, having never been opened there. I know mine did.
And did you notice that it is the letter of James. It is not the gospel of James or the book of James. It is the letter of James. Which means it is personal. It was written to a specific person or group of people at a specific time and place. Does anyone write letters anymore? Do you sit down at a desk for 30 minutes or so with the patience to reflect on what you want to tell this person and the confidence to put it down in ink? Lauren and I have an old neighbor who is in her 70s and she writes us letters. Every time we receive one of those envelopes stuffed to the gills with five or six pages of stories and news from the neighborhood, I always feel like I am encountering a lost art that is dying out. Her letters are always personal and steeped in love. And it is a shame that it usually takes two or three of them to arrive before we find the time to respond. If only she had Facebook…
So that's what James is. A personal letter, written from one beating heart to another that more often than not goes unread. Which is too bad, because I don't know about you, but as we have listened to the passages of James pass us by these last couple of weeks, there have been brief moments where I thought to myself, "That sounds like it was written yesterday." So timely, so applicable to life. We've heard phrases like, "Every generous act comes from God," "Be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger." James has told us not to favor one type of person over another and to not judge people. James warns us in chapter three that our tongue is the body part that most often gets us into trouble. That it is the words we speak to one another, or type, or tweet, or text, that can be a small spark that starts a whole forest on fire. And isn't that true about our world today. The way we use our tongues to speak can be like cancer. It can squeeze the life right out of the person who is on the receiving end. The trouble is we know it is true. Many of us know the feeling of speaking and then wishing you could reach out and grab those words back again before they reach the other person's ears.
A couple of weeks ago, a friend of mine was caught in an argument with his partner and on a whim, he said to her, "Fine. Just go be like your mother then." He knew it the moment he said it. He knew how those words would slam her right in the heart but he couldn't reach out quick enough to take them back.
What we are learning is that the letter of James is not a bunch of old words. While it was personal and timely back then, it is personal and timely today. It is present day wisdom from which we all could benefit. Let's be honest, it's hard to find a way to use Jesus' "The Son of Man must suffer and die…" as guidance for your life when out on a lunch break with your co-workers. But James' "Be quick to listen and slow to speak…" echoes of wisdom for today when most of us are slow to listen and quick to speak.
Or take today's portion of James: For where there is envy and selfish ambition, there will also be disorder and wickedness of every kind. Isn't that still true today? Don't envy and selfish ambition still lead us into disorder and wickedness?
So why don't we read the letter of James any more? I think much of it is because of a little quote from Martin Luther hundreds of years ago that, like a bad rumor passed around school, just has not faded away yet. Luther says that letter of James is a letter of straw. It is flimsy and hollow. Makes for good kindling for a fire and good bedding for the cattle. Which Luther would rather we tore the letter of James out of our Bibles than actually read it. You see, Martin Luther was so convinced by the Apostle Paul that the grace of God is not something you earn but something that is given to you freely that James simply sounded too much like earning God's love. There are over 100 commands in the 5 short chapters of James. Do this. Don't do that.
Now Martin Luther is right – we are not saved and awarded grace because of the things we do or don't do. Grac is a free gift given. But I don't think that James disagrees with that. Instead, I think James is the one who encourages us, or more truthfully, outright demands that we not just think about this gift but actually do something with it. There is a story about the young boy who wanted nothing else but a new pair of rollerblades for his birthday. When the day finally arrived, there in the middle of a pile of presents was a big square and heavy box (he knows, because he lifted it up the day before to try to guess what was in it). Inside was exactly what he asked for. But terrified to ruin this new gift, he placed them in his closet to keep them safe and clean and 8 months later, unused and unopened, his rollerblades were too small. A gift is meant to be used, not hidden.
At the heart of the letter of James is the desire we actually use our faith to impact the world. The first chapter of James says that the very word of God has been planted inside you. Think about that. Buried inside each of you is a seed. Just a little bead of the word of God, planted there by God the farmer. Many of you are farmers and gardeners and so you know that one never plants something and hopes that it will just stay there buried. One plants so that something will grow. Grow out of it and bring forth fruit. The word of God has been planted in you, James says. Now go and do something with it.
Which means this wisdom from James is not wisdom for Sunday morning. Notice this letter isn't about how to pray better or how to receive communion with a more intentional and faithful heart. It isn't about confessing your sin more truthfully or honestly. All of these things are great, but the letter of James carries within it Monday-through-Saturday kind of wisdom. He says that we are called to use our faith in the ordinary parts of our life. For James, how you speak with co-workers is an act of faith. For James, the amount of care and effort you put into your work is an act of faith. For James, how you treat your opponents on the soccer or baseball field is an act of faith. That is God is at work with and through you in this world.
A professor of mine was once working with a group of congregation members, trying to help them see God not as a distant judge watching everything they do, but as a co-pilot in this life. One who comes alongside us and uses us to bring about a better world. So this professor asked the group what they and God are doing on Monday morning at 9am. One man raised his hand and said, "Well I am balancing the books for the business I work at. But I have not a clue what God is doing." My professor asked him, "What type of business do you work for?" The man said, "A grain mill." "And where does your grain go?" "To bread companies." "And where does their bread go?" "Mostly Southern Chicago." My professor paused and thought for a moment. "So if you don't balance the books correctly, you might end up selling grain at too high of a price. Which means the bread makers would need to raise the cost of their bread. Which means the stores on the South side of Chicago would have to increase the price of the bread. Which means the bread might become too expensive for the single mother with two children who needs it. But if you do your job well, the cost of bread will be accurate and more affordable. It sounds like to me, on Monday morning at 9am, you and God are feeding families on the South side of Chicago."
All of this is to say that wherever you are tomorrow morning at 9am is a sacred space where you and God are working side by side for the health of the world. So wherever you are at 9am, stop and think – this is sacred space. The life of God is being played out right here. And when you do that, you may look around your cubicle or your office or your cluttered barn or your classroom and wonder, "This ordinary and boring place is sacred?" To which James would say, "Yep." And that is the best news, that God would actually choose to be known and discovered in those ordinary, routine, sometimes boring parts of our life.
We are saved not by our own works, but simply by the grace of God, but the gift that James gives us is the push, or the kick, out the door to go and do something with it. It is harvest time, people of God, not just for the fields but for your faith… So let your faith bear fruit. Go and do something with it. And may you find the presence of God in your midst. AMEN.

The Road to Nowhere
Sometimes sitting still is the best course of action (or inaction). Before you can move forward, it's a great idea to figure out where you stand. There's only one destination waiting for everyone. All other "places" are temporary. Emotions change but never go away. Sometimes they change direction, or intensity, or even nature. Love can become hate. Inspiration can become frustration. Anger can become passivity and understanding. Emotions are motivators and inhibitors. Highways and dead ends. Choose.

Does anyone know if Oracle 817 is compatible with Solaris 9? We are stuck in a wierd situation where we cannot upgrade to Oracle 9i right away but our sysad team wants to move to Solaris 9. The compatibility document that I have seen on Oracle website says that only Solaris 2.6, Solaris 7 and Solaris 8 are compatible with Oracle 817. But that was a very old document. Anyone know more about this? Thanks

How I Make My Peach Fuzz Mustache Disappear with Makeup
Mine comes in dark, thick and lots of it.
I don't think many of you know this about me, but I'm still a college student at the University of Georgia. Yes, smack dab in the middle of the conservative south. Come May, though, I'm graduating and moving up to New York with not much more than a suitcase and my cat (and my beauty stash, duh.).
Before I have to get all buttoned up for job interviews and the like, I've got about five months to go completely H.A.M. on my appearance. So, what's a gal to do? I've got a few ideas.
Bold, Sassy Eye Makeup
Ladies and gentlemen, I'm definitely in an eye makeup rut. Day after day I don thick brows, a cat-eye, and voluminous mascara. Maybe some bronze eye shadow, if I feel so inclined. I think this comes partially from the fact that at Southern universities, Greek life dominates: sorority girls wear Nike shorts, big T-shirts, and tennis shoes, and snicker at students who choose to get made up for class. It's always made me feel insanely self-conscious, but no longer. I've been totally inspired by Ulta's Perfect Ten Mini Eye Crayon Collection, which includes 10 highly pigmented, easy-to-apply eye shades. My shadow's going to be off the chain, y'all.
IDGAF Makeup Application Skills
Confession time: I've always envied women who wake up at a decent hour, brush their teeth, rush to the subway, and apply their makeup flawlessly on public transportation, wobbly hand be damned. This semester I plan on mastering the technique before I graduate to the big leagues of the MTA, because I love sleep more than most other things, and besides, "beauty sleep" is a totally valid concept, right? Luckily, I've found a brush set that'll help me out exponentially: It Brushes For Ulta Your Beautiful Basics Travel Set. At only $20 and featuring a powder brush, an eye shadow brush, and a liner/brow brush, what more could I need? I'm ready to slip this in my bag and go, go, go.
Rainbow-Hued Tresses
So far this year I've gone pastel pink and fire-engine red, shades that have caught major attention--both good and bad--at my school. Right now I'm feeling like a unicorn in the best way: I'm back to platinum, but with some baby pink streaks sprinkled throughout. Not only is the color dope, thanks to my wonderful colorist, but it's also a clean slate for whatever's next. Teal? Perhaps a super trendy gray? The world is my oyster.
Tattoos Up The Wazoo
Not that I won't be able to get tats up in NYC, but I'm thinking this might be the last time for a while that I'll have spending money to spare for some ink. Right now I've got three, and I'm dreaming of a few more: an Alphonse Mucha-inspired Athena tattoo on my shoulder blade and an ankle tattoo of the map coordinates of Manhattan. Plus, David Hale, a legendary tattoo artist, works out of Athens, Georgia, but his wait list is miles long. I'm hoping to convince him to ink me up before I skip town.

Evan Andrew Waugh
October 8, 1987 - June 14, 2017
Born in New York
Resided in Annapolis, MD
Evan Andrew Waugh, on June 14th, 2017, lost his battle with his disease after a long, valiant struggle, prematurely ending the life of an exceptionally strong and vibrant young man at the age of 29. Evan will be remembered as a perpetually cheerful individual, whose personality and charm was sincere, yet effortless; whose soul was gentle and kind, and whose handsome good looks and electric smile were never eclipsed by his natural empathy for anyone fortunate enough to make his acquaintance. Evan was devoted to his brothers outside of his nuclear family, had a natural rapport with children and dogs, loved fishing at OBX, and being outdoors. He is survived by his father Robert, his mothers Diane and Mary Kay, siblings Harrison and Sophie, and his son Jacob. A memorial gathering will be held on Saturday, June 17 from 3-4 PM, followed by a celebration of life service at 4, at Hardesty Funeral Home, 851 Annapolis Road, Gambrills. In lieu of flowers, the family asks for donations to the mobile crisis team of the Anne Arundel County mental health agency, www.aamentalhealth.org.

Network Editor grid doesn't always stay in the same place.
jamesr posted a topic in General Houdini QuestionsHey guys, Lately I've been using the grid in my network pane (tools > show grid), and I always snap my nodes to the intersection points so it's all nice and pretty. But every so often, multiple times a day, and usually when I re-open a scene, all the nodes will be nudged off, maybe ~1/4 grid space in a given direction. It's as if the grid is being drawn in a slightly different location. Obviously it's not a huge deal to just select all the nodes and scoot them over, but it gets a little redundant having to do it in every network, and kind of defeats the purpose of having a neat grid. I'm wondering if anyone else notices this or knows of an RFE for it, or if it's just me... Thanks!
normal Normal Alignment Using a Target Curve
FruehBird posted a topic in General Houdini QuestionsI am trying to mimic a rail spline like you would use in Cinema4D. Essentially I would like each point normal to look at the point with the same index on another curve. From what I've found on getting a direction from two vectors is to simply subtract B from A. However, this does not seem to be the case. (See attached file) Is there more to it than simply subtraction? Align_Normal.hip

When you have got work done at an auto physique shop it's best to all the time ask them to give you the elements that had been replaced in your car. That is important because some outlets will declare that they mounted things that they did not, but if in case you have the previous components in hand, you know exactly what was eliminated.
Ensure you get a signed copy of the estimate for the repairs. You additionally need to guantee that the contract incorporates a clause that the store must contact you earlier than exceeding the full on the estimate. This may shield you from getting a surprise bill as soon as work is accomplished. Do not take your automobile to the first mechanic you discover. You need to do some research to find a dependable mechanic with fair costs. Ask your family and friends in regards to the mechanics they have been to previously and test the Web to seek out opinions written by different clients.
Regulate your radiator levels. Start your automobile, wait a couple of minutes and shut it off so you possibly can safely examine the radiator. Never open the radiator cap if the engine is operating. Test your radiator fluid and keep in mind to combine water with coolant earlier than filling your radiator.
When visiting an auto repair store, look around to see if there are licenses posted on that walls. These might embrace state licenses and certifications of specialties, in addition to diplomas for levels earned. On the subject of who is repairing the automobile that you drive every day, you want them to be certified and professional.
When it is time to convey your automotive in for work, consider carefully about whether you need to go to the supplier or a neighborhood repairman. The dealer typically is aware of the most about your explicit sort of vehicle, but they generally value essentially the most consequently. Weigh your choices and go with what is best for you.

COPS investigating the sexual assault of a boy aged four at an Asda have
stepped up patrols at the store.
Officers maintained a presence at the supermarket and a mobile police station
was set up after the male perv pounced.
The boy is believed to have been assaulted in the toilet of the supermarket in
Clydebank on Tuesday.
Shopper Gillian McCall, 33, said: "There are police everywhere. It is dreadful
to think that something so sinister happened in somewhere like a supermarket
where lots of families go every day. It's comforting to see the police are
here." Officers were yesterday trawling through CCTV images, as the victim
recovered from his ordeal with his family.
Det Insp Graham Cordner said: "This is an isolated incident, nevertheless, one
that has caused significant stress to the young child and his family.
"Thankfully, the child is safely at home with his family."
He added: "Since we were alerted we have been reviewing CCTV footage in and
around Asda and conducting local enquiries. It is vital that anyone who was
within Asda between 1.30pm and 2pm on Tuesday, and in particular anyone who
used the toilet facilities at this time, to get in touch.
"It's important we identify people and eliminate them from the inquiry, this
will let us remain focused on catching the man responsible."
Insp Coleen Wylie said: "We understand people will be concerned and I would
like to emphasise that this type of incident is rare. Nevertheless we have
additional patrols in and around the area to offer reassurance to the public.
"There is also a mobile police office which is located at the Asda car park.
"Over the next few days this will be manned for 24 hours for anyone who has
any information to pass on to officers."
The suspect is described as white, with dark, coloured or brown hair. He was
wearing dark coloured clothing, including what is believed to be a long
sleeved top with a logo on it.
Asda said they were supporting the police with their probe.

Heartburn, also know as gastroesophageal reflux disease, or GERD, is a very common condition. For most people it is a mild problem that rarely requires medication. For some, however, it is a serious and even debilitating problem that can significantly affect quality of life. GERD is often due to malfunction of the valve between the esophagus and stomach (the lower esophageal sphincter or LES) and/or a hiatal hernia.
Hiatal Hernia
Your chest is separated from your abdomen by a dome-shaped sheet of muscle called the diaphragm. The esophagus passes through an opening in the diaphragm called the hiatus.
When the tissue around the hiatus weakens, part of the stomach may protrude through the opening into the chest cavity. This is called a hiatal hernia. Weakening of the anchoring tissues of the gastroesophageal junction leads to a hiatal hernia.
Hiatal hernias are ver y common. The major ity of small her nias produce no symptoms.
Symptoms may be caused by a hiatal hernia and/or malfunction of LES. The LES acts like a valve to the stomach, remaining closed until swallowing causes it to briefly open. If the LES is weak and allows stomach acid to reflux back into the esophagus, it will cause irritation of the lining and a burning sensation.
Typical symptoms include heartburn and regurgitation when stomach acid refluxes back into the esophagus. Some patients may experience esophagitis, or irritation of the esophagus caused by acid that erodes through the lining. Bleeding caused by this erosion may lead to anemia. Further chronic erosion may lead to stricture, or narrowing that makes swallowing difficult. Respiratory symptoms such as asthma, chronic cough, bronchitis, or recurring pneumonia can be caused by aspiration of stomach acid dur ing sleep. Chronic irritation of the esophagus can also lead to Barrett's esophagus, a precancerous condition, or eventually to cancer.
Types of Hiatal Hernias
Sliding Hiatal Hernia: In this most common type of hernia, the herniated portion of the stomach slides back and forth, into and out of the chest. This type of hernia is least likely to cause symptoms.
Fixed Hiatal Hernias: In this case, the upper part of the stomach is fixed up in the chest. The potential for problems is increased.
Paraesophageal Hernia: This type of hernia is unusual. However, it is very prone to "strangulation" and may need to be repaired to prevent the need for emergency surgery.
Diagnosis of the hiatal hernia is typically made by a barium swallow x-ray study. Upper GI endoscopy (examination of the stomach and esophagus a with a flexible scope ) should be done to evaluate the extent of damage to the esophagus and look for other conditions that may mimic hiatal hernia. Pressure measurements (esophageal manometry) can be done to evaluate the function of the lower esophageal sphincter and the rest of the esophagus. In some cases a probe is placed (24 hour pH study) to measure the amount and frequency of acid reflux into the esophagus.
Treatment is called for only when the hiatal her nia results in symptoms. Reflux is treated in three stages: lifestyle changes, drug therapy and surgery.
Lifestyle changes
- Avoid things that cause reflux or increase stomach acid such as: tobacco, fatty foods, alcohol, caffeine, chocolate, peppermint, and spearmint.
- Eat smaller, more frequent meals and do not eat within 4 hours of bedtime.
- Avoid bending, stooping, sit-ups, and tight clothing.
- If overweight, lose weight. Obesity increases abdominal pressure.
- Cer tain dr ugs such as intestinal antispasmodics, calcium blockers, and some antidepressants can cause reflux.
- Elevate the head of the bed 6-8″ with blocks. Gravity helps keep the stomach acid out of the esophagus.
Drug Therapy
- Antacids such as Tums, Mylanta
- Acid-blocking drugs such as Zantac, Tagamet, or Pepcid
- Reglan
- Proton pump inhibitors such as Pr ilosec, Prevacid, Aciphex, and Nexium
Surgical Therapy
Patients who do not respond well to medical therapy or who do not wish to take medication for the rest of their lives may be considered for surgical correction of their reflux problem. This is known as fundoplication. This procedure involves creating a new valve by wrapping the upper por tion of the stomach around the esophagus and repairing the hiatal hernia. It is most commonly done with a technique called laparoscopy in which the surgery is done through small incisions with the help of a camera. Please see our brochure on this surgery for more information.

One of the primary 'missions' for taking India forward being pursued at present on a national scale is 'Skill India' or making Indians, especially its upcoming youth, much more skilled in the various crafts, trades, industries and professions.
It would act as an ideal inspiration for both the propagators and the students of 'Skill India' mission to know that Mahatma Gandhi, all through his long public life (1893 till 30 January, 1948) invariably insisted on use of better and higher skills for working in whichever task or field he happened to be concerned with at any time. He believed in a constant and continuous learning process including experimentation, keeping the ideal as the goal but also knowing that human beings must always keep improving and rising in their skills but can never attain absolute perfection. Hence, he also called himself a 'practical idealist', going from 'truth to truth'. He himself practiced the pursuit of skill in whatever he did even more than he told others to do.
In this paper an attempt has been made to give a summarized presentation of the multi-faceted Gandhian perspective on the critical role, application and development of varied skills in the numerous fields with which he was involved. Though his interest in the promotion of skills related to nearly any major activity he came across was sustained throughout, his longest and deepest engagement remained with the promotion of the skills required in the propagation of khadi (particularly that of hand-spinning) and other village industries. The promotion of khadi and other village industries was an essential part of his lifelong struggle for India's freedom from foreign rule as well as for removal of poverty and economic morass into which India had sunk.
The presentation below starts with the section on 'Gandhian Perspective on Skills as a Universal and Primary Requirement' covering his general observations, including the roles of art, science and technology in skill formation, and the various qualities and characteristics that go with the skills. Then follows the main section on 'Gandhian Engagement with the Propagation of Skills Along with the Struggle for India's Freedom', which has three sub-sections. The first subsection covers 'Gandhian Movement for the Propagation of Hand-spinning and Khadi', giving an idea about the development of the project on a national scale during different phases of the freedom struggle. The next subsection gives an idea about the 'Gandhian Movement for Other Village Industries' and the third subsection gives an overview of the 'Gandhian Concern for Skills in Other Fields', i.e., apart from the promotion of Khadi and other village industries. Then follows the 'Conclusion' which includes a brief glimpse of how Gandhi functioned himself while propagating 'skill development', particularly in the field of hand-spinning.

Nevada Democrat Rep. Shelley Berkley is under investigation by the House Ethics Committee for using her position in Congress to directly favor legislation that would benefit her — and her husband — financially.
Berkley is running to unseat Nevada's Republican Senator, Dean Heller, and, according to The Las Vegas Sun, will double down on deceit, barraging the state's airwaves with television advertisements that spin her crony capitalism and conflicts of interest in an attempt to deflect the avalanche of negative press concerning her shady dealings and associations.
According to the Sun, the announcer in the new Berkley ad says, "The complaint against Shelley Berkley was filed by the Republican Party. " Then, the announcer spins Berkley's record, saying she fought to "stop cuts to Medicare coverage for hundreds of thousands of patients nationwide" while distorting Heller's record, claiming Heller voted twice to "end Medicare."
Despite the claims of partisanship, what the ad fails to mention is that the the House Ethics Committee voted unanimously to investigate Berkely. Five Democrats — Linda Sanchez, of California, John Yarmuth, of Kentucky, Donna Edwards, of Maryland, Pedro Pierluisi, of Puerto Rico, and Joe Courtney, of Connecticut — voted with Republicans on the committee to investigate Berkley.
Second, the ad frames Berkely as someone who fought with courage and conviction to stop Medicare cuts when in fact Berkley is being investigated for gaming the system so that federal monies would directly enrich her husband.
As Breitbart News wrote when it put pressure on the House Ethics Committee to investigate Berkley, Berkley's husband is a managing partner of a company that received a $600,000 federal contract from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Within a year of signing the contract, the contract was revoked when Berkley's husband's company kidney transplant program had double the death rates of the expected level, according to a New York Times report.
Berkley then worked with Sen. Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) to get CMS to reverse its decision to defund her husband's company. CMS eventually gave the company a bigger contract and employees from her husband's company, in turn, funneled some of that money back to Berkley's election campaigns.
In its writeup, the Sun, which is published by liberal Greenspun family who has donated considerable amounts of money to Berkley's campaigns, treats the transplant center under investigation favorably. The paper describes it as "the only one in the Las Vegas Valley" that could not be closed because it would " have forced patients to travel out of state for surgery."
As for Berkley's claims that Heller voted to end Medicare?
It's simply not true. The ad refers to Heller's votes for Rep. Paul Ryan's budget proposal that would replace the Medicare program with vouchers, but the new program would not apply to anyone over 55 years of age.
Nevada is one of the Senate seats Republicans must pick up in order to have gain a majority in the Senate.
Democrats know this with Berkley's political career on the ropes, they are working to distort her record and deceive Nevada's voters as quickly as possible before even more facts about Berkley's conflicts of interests are uncovered.
