|Father Bob Thames from the Diocese of Fort Worth has spent 40 years serving the poor in Mexico and Bolivia. (NTC / Joan Kurkowski-Gillen)
Father Robert Thames didn't just open a school in Cabezas, Bolivia, eight years ago. He gave hundreds of needy youngsters a portal out of poverty.
But the diocesan priest with a missionary heart never expected to spend a chunk of his adult life tending to young souls in South America. As a younger man, he wanted to work in Southeast Asia.
"I liked ministering to the Cambodian refugees in Breckenridge (Sacred Heart of Jesus Parish), so I felt called to go to Southeast Asia," explains the 74-year-old who began his missionary outreach as a Maryknoll associate.
His plans changed after the Maryknoll president returned from a mission trip to Bolivia.
"He asked me if I spoke Spanish," Fr. Thames says, recounting the fateful question. "I said 'yes' and my plans changed."
Dressed in a red plaid flannel shirt and carrying a multi colored woven bag crafted by one of his Bolivian parishioners, the soft spoken priest talked about his thriving school and the students it serves during one of his infrequent visits to Fort Worth. Every two years the native of Wise County returns to Texas to raise funds for Nuestra Senora del Carmen in Cabezas. He also meets with benefactors who sponsor a child's schooling through Educate the Children Bolivia — a Diocesan Mission Council program. Thanks to the generosity of North Texas Catholics, many of the school's 450 sixth- through 12th-graders from impoverished villages are given the opportunity for an education.
A Nov. 10 dinner and silent auction at St. Bartholomew Church hosted by the Mission Council netted $8,500 for Educate the Children.
Started in February 2004, the Nuestra Senora Del Carmen School has grown to include adult education courses and technical training for older students. Since its inception, 350 students have completed the curriculum with more than 70 graduates pursuing university educations.
"The youngsters learn a trade and then go home and teach their parents about agriculture or caring for farm animals," says Alicia Ruggieri, an Educate the Children sponsor who visited Cabezas last year. "One little girl I met learned to sew and would make clothes for her younger siblings."
The St. Joseph parishioner attended the school's graduation ceremony and was impressed by the grateful hugs she received from students.
"It was an amazing moment for me," she adds. "I've never seen so many graduates cry so much and be so appreciative. Education is something we take for granted in this country."
Today, the school's wide-reaching vocational and academic programs serve 1,000 people and are used as models for rural education in Bolivia. It's a lifetime achievement for the grey-haired priest who spent 40 years serving the poor in Mexico and Bolivia. But his mission work came at a price — his health.
Fr. Thames still remembers the rigors of his first assignment.
"I really drove myself," he said, recalling life in a high altitude region of Bolivia. "Everything was on foot in those days. There was no fuel and very little transportation."
Traveling between his residence and outlying villages 13,000 to 15,000 feet above sea level exhausted him. After three and a half years he left the remote post and returned to the U.S.
"That really bothered me because I fell in love with the people there," he confessed. "People in the rural areas are extremely generous. They are poor and struggle to eat, but whatever they have they will give you."
Fr. Thames returned to Sacred Heart of Jesus Parish in Breckenridge but quickly asked for reassignment. After years of living a simple life in Bolivia, he could not adjust to fast-paced American society.
"I realized after a short time I could not stay in this country. Everything was so different," he admits.
As soon as a Spanish-speaking replacement was found for the parish, Fr. Thames assumed a new post in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico. From 1986 until 1997, he managed fast-growing parishes.
"It was going well until I had my first heart attack," remembers the missionary who recovered easily from his first bout with heart disease.
A second heart attack in 1995 almost killed him. During three days spent in the intensive care unit of a Mexican hospital, friends did not know if he would live or die.
After leaving the hospital, he told the local bishop in Mexico the burden of overseeing a large parish was affecting his health.
"He insisted I stay, so I decided to go back to Bolivia. I just didn't tell him that," he confided with a sheepish grin.
After a brief stay in Trinidad, Bolivia, Fr. Thames relocated to the Santa Cruz Archdiocese where he became pastor of another burgeoning parish, Corpus Christi Church. What started as a congregation of 350, soon grew to 1,000. He enlarged the church twice.
Fr. Thames was the lone priest tending to the needs of 48,000 people at the main church, outlying communities, and three schools.
"Once again it was killing me," he says, remembering the workload a team of three priests would later assume.
When a rural parish became available, the Texas native jumped at the opportunity. Trading his urban lodging for an adobe hut, Fr. Thames became pastor of a parish that covers 45 towns.
"When I got to Cabezas with my lay team and a group of sisters in December 2002, the first thing I did was ask the people what they needed,' the missionary recalls. "Everyone told me they needed a school because most of the villages offered only a fourth or fifth grade education."
When sending youngsters from outlying areas to public schools didn't work out because of teacher strikes, Fr. Thames decided to build his own campus. A recently added highway and electricity made the construction project possible.
"I wanted stability for the youngsters, so we opened our high school for grade six up to graduation the next year," he said.
Located on land that once housed a pig farm, the school has a 30-year contract with the property owner. Dormitories provide shelter for children who live too far away from the school to commute. Many youngsters are abandoned or come from single parent homes.
"They stay with us all year long and we feed them," explains the visionary founder who tries to enroll the poorest, most vulnerable children.
Textbooks aren't supplied by the government.
"If you can't afford them, you're really handicapped, so we furnish the books," he continued. "We also give them school supplies, meals, and lodging. And if they need clothes or medical attention, and the family can't afford it, we give them that too."
Having won the respect of the Bolivian government, Fr. Thames hopes to keep the successful school operating after he's gone. Well past the age most priests retire, the missionary forged an alliance with the Guarani Indians and the Campesinos — the local agricultural labor union — to ensure the school's viability.
"We're forming a council that will direct the school and be responsible for fundraising," he explains. "We're a parish school well-known for helping the poorest students. That will continue and our principles will be maintained."
With a small army of industrious alumni exemplifying the value of education, Fr. Thames knows he's changing Bolivian society one student at a time. An increase in the number of high schools in the region is just one way Nuestra Senora del Carmen has impacted people's attitude toward higher education.
"When our graduates began to branch out and became productive members of the community, people saw the benefit, and the number of kids going to school increased greatly," he adds.
The small, rural school Fr. Thames started eight years ago gives the children of impoverished village families hope for a better life. Special education teachers, clothing manufacturers, a veterinarian, doctors and nurses, are among the school graduates.
"What we're doing is making a difference," he insists. "The support we get from the bishop and sponsors in the Diocese of Fort Worth is key. People interested in doing good things for others makes this school work."
Father Robert Thames didn't just open a school in Cabezas, Bolivia, eight years ago. He gave hundreds of needy youngsters a portal out of poverty.

Aaron-Musial friendship extended far from field
Korean War tour forged enduring relationship between Hall of Famers
By Mark Bowman / MLB.com
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- Hank Aaron's memories of Stan Musial extend beyond the many games they played against each other during their Hall of Fame careers. They shared a friendship that began when they spent two weeks visiting United States military personnel in Korea more than 50 years ago.
"We went all over Korea," Aaron said. "We went in the DMZ [the buffer zone between North and South Korea]. Stan and I were roommates. We slept in the same bunk. I had never been in the Army. It was the only time they made us all lieutenant colonels in the Army, just in case something happened to us, so that we could get the benefits."
Fortunately, Aaron and Musial returned to the United Sates unharmed and with the ability to complete their Hall of Fame careers. They are the only players in Major League history to hit at least .300 with a .500 slugging percentage, 450 home runs and 3,500 hits.
While Aaron spent all but two years of his career with the Braves, Musial spent his entire career in St. Louis with the Cardinals.
"He was a helluva ballplayer," Aaron said. "He was a great hitter. I remember when we were having a team meeting and [Hall of Fame pitcher] Warren Spahn would talk about how we should pitch him. Warren said, 'Well, I tell you what I'm going to do. I'm just going to walk him, because I can't get him out.'"
Aaron had the honor of experiencing his first All-Star Game while playing in front of the hometown fans at Milwaukee's County Stadium in 1955. He still loves to tell the story about how Musial provided the National League with a 6-5 win with a 12th-inning walk-off home run.
"I remember that Stan Musial came to the dugout and he said, 'Boys, they don't pay us to play extra innings,' and then he went up there and hit a home run," Aaron said. "That is the truth."
Another of Aaron's favorite stories about Musial occurred during their trip to Korea. They were provided one Nikon camera that Musial unsuccessfully operated as they were flying in a helicopter one afternoon.
"I said, 'Stan, you're taking all of these pictures, now send me a copy of them," Aaron said. "Next time I saw him he said, 'Man, all I took was the floor board of the helicopter.'"

Time, Love, and Cash in Couples With Children Study (TLC3) [United States], 2000-2005 (ICPSR 22462)
Principal Investigator(s): England, Paula, Stanford University; Edin, Kathryn, Harvard University
Time, Love, and Cash in Couples with Children (TLC3) consists of four waves of interviews with parents (married and nonmarried) who experienced a birth in the year 2000. Both mothers and fathers participated in semi-structured in-depth interviews individually and as a couple in each of the four waves. Interviewers were encouraged to probe and to be flexible with the order of the questions to foster a more conversational interaction. During the TLC3 interviews respondents were asked their views on parenthood, child-rearing responsibilities and expenditures, family structure and relationships, the amount of time spent with their child, their domestic responsibilities, and household income and expenditures. Questions also focused on the relationship between the parents. Respondents were asked how much time they spend together, what their thoughts were on the future of their relationship, and their general views on marriage, parenthood, and gender roles.

Smallest Geographic Unit: none
Geographic Coverage: Chicago, New York, Milwaukee, United States
- 2000--2005
- 2000--2005
Unit of Observation: individual
Universe: All participants in the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study (FFCWS, which itself is a large national probability sample) who experienced the birth of a child during the time period from 2000-2005.
Pseudonyms were used to protect the identities of all those who participated in this study.
Sample: Starting with a sample of 75 couples, participants were interviewed both individually and as couples. Over 4 waves of data collection, a total of 756 interviews were conducted. The sample is embedded in a large national probability sample: the FRAGILE FAMILIES AND CHILD WELLBEING STUDY (FFCWS) [ICPSR 0180]. Participants in TLC3 were chosen based on a stratified, random sampling scheme from three of the FFCWS cities: Chicago, New York, and Milwaukee. Nonmarital births were oversampled. TLC3 used one hospital in each of the three cities. In Chicago, the hospital served a largely poor, African American population, in New York the hospital served a mostly Hispanic clientele, and in Milwaukee the hospital catered to an economically and ethnically diverse population. In each city, FFCWS couples were only eligible to participate in the TLC3 study if they were romantically involved at the time of the birth, if the mother's household income did not exceed $75,000 (though most were much poorer), if both mother and father lived in an accessible geographic area (to be accessible to interviewers), if the father was not in jail, if the child was living with at least one of the biological parents, and if both parents spoke English. As in the FFCWS, TLC3 over-sampled unmarried couples. Married couples comprised approximately one third of the 75 couples in the TLC3 sample, and were included solely for comparison.
Mode of Data Collection: face-to-face interview
Response Rates: The TLC3 interview team was able to maintain a relatively high response rate: the lowest for mothers' individual interviews is 81 percent (second wave), and the lowest for fathers' individual interviews is 77 percent (fourth wave). The lowest couple interview response rate is 61 percent (fourth wave). Since many couples who were no longer romantically involved by later interviews declined the invitation to be interviewed together, the lower response rate relative to the individual interviews is expected. For more detailed information on response rates and data on differences between missing and retained individuals, see page 284 in: Shafer, Emily Fitzgibbons. 2007.

Boys Town Study of Youth Development (ICPSR 34595)
Principal Investigator(s): Akers, Ronald L., University of Florida; Radosevich, Marcia; Lanza-Kaduce, Lonn, University of Florida; Krohn, Marvin, University of Florida
The Boys Town Study of Youth Development surveyed 3,065 students in junior high and high schools in the Midwestern United States (predominantly in Nebraska and Iowa) in the mid-1970s. The study focused on adolescent substance use and deviant behavior, school aspirations, and parental and friendship relationships. Additional topics included opinions toward, influences for or against, and legal ramifications of substance use, drug/alcohol education programs and the availability and perceived difficulty in obtaining drugs and or alcohol. Respondents were asked whether they had used tobacco, alcohol, marijuana, stimulants, depressants, and stronger drugs such as narcotics and psychedelics, the frequency and quantity of use, effects they felt using a substance for the first time, and the usual effects they felt if used more than once. Those who had never used any substances were asked about their perceived effects of use. Delinquent behavior engaged in by the respondents such as truancy issues, running away from home, and theft, as well as behavior while under the influence of substances such as fighting, being stopped by the police, and being in an accident were also asked about. Demographic information includes age, sex, religion, religiosity, grade point average, and grade level.

Scope of Study
Subject Terms: adolescents, alcohol, alcohol consumption, attitudes, authority, controlled drugs, delinquent behavior, drug education, drug use, family relationships, marijuana, morality, parent child relationship, parental attitudes, parental influence, peer influence, punishment, religion, social environment, stimulants, tobacco use, work
Geographic Coverage: Iowa, Nebraska, United States
Unit of Observation: individual
Universe: Adolescents between 7th and 12 grade living in the Midwestern United States, particularly Iowa and Nebraska.
Study Purpose: To test a social learning explanation of drinking and drug behavior.
Sample: No attempt was made to get a probability sample or insure that the sample was regionally or nationally representative. Sampling design involved purposive selection of several school districts of varying sizes and demographic characteristics located in communities ranging from rural to urban. In smaller districts, sampled from each secondary school; in larger districts selected junior and senior high schools. Classrooms served as clusters, and in consultation with principal, PI's sampled at random (but purposively to give a cross-section of the school population) 2-3 classrooms per grade level from among the required courses or from among the general enrollment classes in those grades. The number of classes sampled depended on class size, with an aim toward including enough classes to include responses from at least 10% of total school enrollment or a minimum of 100 respondents per school, whichever was greater.
Mode of Data Collection: paper and pencil interview (PAPI)
Description of Variables: Major variable groups included: demographics, social learning variables, attitudes on drug/drinking, substance use history, perceived (or actual) results of substance use and delinquent behavior inquiries.
Response Rates: Across all districts, 74 percent of parental permission forms were returned, 95 percent of those returned had permission granted, and 95 percent of those with permission granted actually took the survey.
Extent of Processing: ICPSR data undergo a confidentiality review and are altered when necessary to limit the risk of disclosure. ICPSR also routinely creates ready-to-go data files along with setups in the major statistical software formats as well as standard codebooks to accompany the data. In addition to these procedures, ICPSR performed the following processing steps for this data collection:
- Standardized missing values.
- Created online analysis version with question text.
- Checked for undocumented or out-of-range codes.
Restrictions: Users are reminded that these data are to used solely for statsitical analysis and reporting of aggregated information and not for the investigation of specific individuals.

So let me get this straight.Raptors fans are wise to ignore the 'heat' GM Bryan Colangelo supposedly faces: Smith
I think I need some help here.
All last week, and actually for a few weeks, Ive been told that this guy or that guy (specifically Bryan Colangelo and Dwane Casey) need to be feeling the heat.
What does it mean?
Especially about the GM.
Do you think hes not trying to make moves to make his team better? Like hes not making calls and seeing whats out there?
Does it mean every single story ever written on these guys has to point out the last five years? Thats kind of boring and repetitive and, frankly, not something I feel like doing.
Sure, we write every day than things arent good, their record is in every game story and I think the tone of the most pieces would echo the fact they begin this trip 4-13.
But heat is such a strange and vague term its almost wise to ignore it.
Should we somehow be urging him to do something every single day? Like thats going to force him to make a move? Should we call for someones firing once or twice a week without any suggestion of what a replacement might be?
No, not a chance. Sorry. We continue to point out how things are, what the problems are, how they might be fixed.
Thats about all the feeling the heat youre going to get here, or really should anywhere.
Raptor fans should just ignore and keep quiet about the possibility of this being the 5th season without a playoff appearance?
Raptor fans should just ignore and keep quiet about being tied for 2nd last in the league through 17 games?
Raptor fans should just ignore and keep quiet about the endless and unfulfilled hyperbole spewed by Colangelo year in and year out? (flexibility, young guns, rebuild, build, acceleration, etc. etc.)
Raptor fans should just ignore and keep quiet about the regression shown by the team this season?
Raptor fans should just ignore and keep quiet about the 7 years of misery with Bargnani and the revelation he is what he is - nothing more, nothing less?
I think Raptor fans should just ignore Doug Smith and he should just keep quiet. Thanks for all those hot tips and rumours Doug! Thanks for breaking all those stories, Doug! Thanks for asking the tough questions that need to be asked, Doug! Thanks for.... oh wait a minute, you don't do any of that.... Thanks for nothing, Doug!

NAFCU Confab to Include UFCU Cyber Attack Session
Some timely hometown lessons in international cybercrime have been added to the agenda of NAFCU's Technology and Security set for Feb. 26-28 in Austin, Texas.
Staff from the $1.5 billion University Federal Credit Union will lead a session on their response to a Distributed Denial of Service attack that took down the Austin credit union's website for about two and a half hours on Jan. 24.
UFCU was one of two credit unions (Patelco is the other) named by the Al-Qassam Cyber Fighters named as targets after their sites were taken down by the purportedly Iran-backed cyber attackers.
Keynote speaker at the conference at the Sheraton Austin at the Capitol will John Sileo, a victim of identity theft – which cost his clients $300,000 and him nearly his freedom – who has gone on to become an author and adviser on privacy and reputation.
Other session topics include data loss prevention, social media and online threats, business continuity and preparing for FFIEC exams.
NAFCU said 100 to 150 credit union professionals are expected to attend. Deadline for hotel registration is Friday.

Boeing is still having troubles with its famed 787
Dreamliner. The company announced yesterday that it is delaying the first
flight of its Dreamliner by three months.
Boeing's next-generation
airliner, which makes use of advanced, lightweight materials and extremely
efficient engines, is the fastest selling aircraft in Boeing history with the
company securing 817 orders from 53 different customers.
The bulk of the delays are blamed on suppliers who continue
to work behind schedule stalling the production of the initial Dreamliner prototype
according to the Wall Street
Journal. Boeing decided to outsource the production of many critical
Dreamliner components to companies scattered across the globe in an effort to
reduce costs and promote foreign sales.
The decision is now coming back to sting Boeing as a lack of
synergy between suppliers is the root cause for the program delays. According
to sources close to the Dreamliner program, wiring and cockpit instrumentation
hasn't even been installed into the first Dreamliner being readied for flight
Boeing was more diplomatic when describing the supplier
issues, "The fundamental design and technologies of the 787 remain
sound," said Boeing Commercial Airplanes CEO and president Scott Carson. "However,
we continue to be challenged by start-up issues in our factory and in our
extended global supply-chain."
Since aircraft engineers need at least two to three months
of electrical testing before giving the go ahead to perform test flights, the
Dreamliner will not take off until the end of the second quarter according to
Boeing. Deliveries of the first production Dreamliner aircraft were also pushed
back from late 2008 to early 2009.
"We have brought together the right skills and
leadership from around the company to ensure a successful start-up of our
global production system," added Dreamliner Vice President and General
Manager Pat Shanahan. "We have put the people, structure and processes in
place to execute our plan and we will take additional steps to strengthen our
team if needed. We have made significant progress in reducing parts shortages,
improving fastener availability and achieving static and systems test
milestones. We are focused on getting the 787 flying, certified and delivered
to our customers."
"This airplane is going to be the basis of every
airplane Boeing builds in the future, so it needs to be right," said
International Lease Finance Corp. CEO John Plueger. Plueger's leasing company
ordered 74 Dreamliners from Boeing making it the single largest customer.
announced delays to the Dreamliner program in early October 2007 after initially
denying the reports. Boeing's revised target for the first flight of the
aircraft was changed to Q1 2008 and the first deliveries were changed to
November 2008 at the earliest.
The Dreamliner was recently in the news over a damning
report from Wired Magazine which
claimed that the Dreamliner was vulnerable
to attacks from passengers using the wired networking capabilities of the plane.
A Boeing engineer and a spokeswoman for the company were quick to dismiss the

Housing Collapse, GSEs Dominate House Financial Services April Agenda
The House Financial Services Committee's April schedule marks a continuation of Chairman Jeb Hensarling's (R-Texas) agenda to reform the housing market, with five hearings scheduled to examine government-sponsored enterprises Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the Federal Housing Administration and the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Those dates will add to the five hearings the committee has already conducted this year regarding on the topic. In particular, the committee has investigated how government policies may have contributed to the housing market meltdown, and how the secondary market can be reformed to reduce taxpayer liability and include more private investment.
Hensarling favors a privatization of the GSEs. In his opening remarks during a March 19 hearing in which Acting Federal Housing Finance Administration Director Edward DeMarco updated the committee on the progress of the GSEs' conservatorships, Hensarling said he was "determined" that the hearing would be the last time DeMarco or his successor will testify before the committee pens GSE reform legislation.
"This I define as legislation to once and for all abolish Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac as government-sponsored enterprises," Hensarling said. "And two, one that would truly create a sustainable housing policy. Sustainable for our economy, sustainable for those seeking the goal of homeownership, and sustainable for hard-working taxpayers who should never, ever, be called upon again to bail out Wall Street."
Credit union trade associations haven't necessarily opposed GSE reform, but both CUNA and NAFCU have stressed that any reforms must include assurances that credit unions would continue to have unencumbered access to the secondary mortgage market.
In a March 18 letter to the Senate Banking Committee, which also conducted a hearing on housing reform earlier this week, NAFCU President/CEO Fred Becker said NAFCU does not support full privatization of the GSEs because of serious concerns that credit unions could be shut out from the secondary market.
NAFCU supports the creation or existence of multiple GSEs that would perform the essential functions currently performed by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, but added that the GSEs should be self-funded, without any dedicated government appropriation.
"GSE's fee structures should, in addition to size and volume, place increased emphasis on quality of loans," Becker wrote. "Credit union loans provide the quality necessary to improve the salability of agency securities."
Two hearings – on April 10 and April 16 – will discuss regulatory relief for small community financial institutions. Although the schedule does not mention credit unions specifically, and hearings discussing regulatory burden have so far this year focused on banks, a committee staffer told Credit Union Times on Tuesday the committee does plan to conduct a hearing that will focus on credit union regulatory burden.
Other topics on the schedule include the U.S. role in the International Monetary Fund and the so-called "too big to fail" status of big banks.
All hearings will take place in the Financial Services Committee's main hearing room, 2128 Rayburn. The committee said in a release that its schedule is tentative and will depend upon witness availability and other factors that may require changes. Therefore, each meeting will become final only when the official notice is distributed.

I Think Thatobito will get fed up with madara and b ecome the 10 tails host.
But the juubi will be way to powerful for obito to controll and will get out and when that happens obito will die.
During witch kurama will tell naruto how to become the host of the juubi, and than naruto will do as kurama says become the host and beat madara.
Than naruto will talk with the SO6P, and he will tell him how to seal the juubi.
Just a Thought!!

pwgrep is a simple password manager that manages a database file using encryption of GnuPG. It uses encryption and version control on all of the passwords that are stored. The password database can be used on several hosts at once with automatic synchronization. Even several users can share the same password database. The versioning system will keep track of who was changing which entries and at which time. The versioning system to use can be configured (and is Subversion by default). Besides passwords, pwgrep can also be used for storing a collection of files like certificates. The file shredding command for secure deleting of temporary files can be configured. A local backup of all database changes is automatically made. It can be used without a GUI (such as through an SSH session).
runawk is a small wrapper for the AWK interpreter that helps one write standalone AWK scripts. Its main feature is to provide a module/library system for AWK which is somewhat similar to Perl's "use" command. It also allows one to select a preferred AWK interpreter and to set up the environment for AWK scripts. Dozens of ready for use [modules].awk are also provided.
The ATA over Ethernet Tools are intended for use in conjunction with an ATA over Ethernet (AoE) driver for a Linux 2.6 kernel, called "aoe". The tools perform simple tasks like listing available devices, triggering device discovery, and restricting the network interfaces on which AoE is performed.
LMDBG is a collection of small tools for collecting and analyzing the logs of malloc/realloc/memalign/free function calls. Unlike many others, LMDBG does not provide any way to detect overruns of the boundaries of malloc() memory allocations, as this is not the goal. Like most other malloc debuggers, LMDBG allows detecting memory leaks and double frees. However, unlike others, LMDBG generates full stacktraces and separates the logging process from analysis, thus allowing you to analyze an application on a per-module basis.
basE91 is an advanced method for encoding binary data as ASCII characters. It is similar to UUencode or base64, but is more efficient. The overhead produced by basE91 depends on the input data. It amounts at most to 23% (versus 33% for base64) and can range down to 14%, which typically occurs on 0-byte blocks. This makes basE91 very useful for transferring larger files over binary unsafe connections like e-mail or terminal lines.
geo-* is a set of tools for geocaching, including tools for accessing the www.geocaching.com, opencaching.com, opencaching.us, and navicache.com websites, tools for geocoding addresses and creating maps, and tools for manipulating Mapopolis place guide data. The focus of these tools is to provide a command line driven environment.
libmawk is a fork of mawk 1.3.3 restructured for embedding. It allows you to embed awk interpreters in any application written in C or in a language that can interface C libraries. This allows the application to have plugins, configuration, run control, and AI written in awk. It extends the original feature set of mawk with modularity (C-style include), save/load of compiled bytecode, function calling by name-in-string (substitute for pointers/references), and accounting and limiting of memory and CPU use. While awk as a language does not offer OOP and complex data structures, it is still reasonably powerful. A major advantage is the short learning curve for new users.
An Audio/MIDI multi-track sequencer.

Last week, pictures of a
prototype Xbox 360 with an HDMI connector and a new scaler chip surfaced on
the Web. Some took this as a sure sign that Microsoft was surely tooling a new
version of its gaming console with updated features and improved technology,
perhaps in response to both consumer demands and pressure from competitors.
During an interview with GameSpot at CES, Chris Satchell,
general manager of the game developer group at Microsoft, addressed the rumors
of an HDMI-enabled Xbox 360. He starts by saying, "We're always working on
prototypes and new technologies and just playing with stuff in Redmond to see
what's interesting. I think at the moment we have the widest available
connections on the system. If you want to get great HD, I think we've got a
good solution for that."
Satchell then sidesteps the question for a bit and talks
about the wide array of standards available to consumers and how Microsoft is
always keeping an eye on that. He then returns to the original question and
says, "At the moment, everything you might have seen is just looking at our
experimentation back in Redmond, not really a product that we're thinking about
With the Xbox Live Video
Marketplace and eventual addition Xbox 360 IPTV,
owners of Microsoft's console will quickly find their 20GB hard drives without
adequate storage space in a hurry. Another one of the rumored upcoming upgrades
to the Xbox 360 is a bigger hard drive, which has been hinted at previously. Satchell
responds to the cries for a roomier drive with the following: "That's not
really something we're looking at today. We're very open to feedback on it. As
we produce these services, if we see an increase in pressure that's something
that will be interesting to look at, but there isn't any announcement today
about any new configuration that may or may not be happening."
Satchell also mentions in the interview that Microsoft
currently has no plans to offer an IPTV product directly, instead opting to
allow its telco partners to set pricing and bundle options for the product's
eventual rollout.

As I was responding to an earlier thread of Sakura VS Tenten, I ended up wondering what the hell happened to Sakura. Now I've never really been a fan of Sakura especially in part one because all she did was cry and fawn over Sasuke. In part 2 she began to change my opinion of her when she demonstrated her med ninja skills countering Sasori's deadly poison and the battle against The 3rd Kazekage puppet with minimal help from Elder Chyo. After that? What the hell happened?
She got all whiney and sobby all over again. Did she not train under a Sannin? Why did Kishi decide not to make her progress any further? Had she maybe found the Slug Mountain she could have been a Sage herself could she not? Why was she not trained in Tsunade's regenerating seal techs? She should have been fighting Kabuto and not the Uchiha brothers.
I had such high hopes for her too, now Scattered to the winds by plot no justsu.......
......LAME Kishi....just....LAME!

The electric automobile market is
booming as more and more consumers are looking to go green and to
reduce the emissions and the amount of fuel that they consume. There
are a number of electric cars and hybrids on the market today with
cars like the Prius and the Tesla Roadster.California
governor Arnold Schwarzenegger hinted earlier today that Toyota and
Tesla had plans to produce vehicles together. Now, the cat is officially out of the
bag. Toyota is lending a hand to Tesla Motors in the development of
future electric vehicles including the next generation Roadster and
the upcoming
Model S sedan. According to a joint press release, Toyota will
help Tesla with the development of "electric vehicles, parts,
and production system" and it will also offer engineering
The Japanese auto giant will be funneling a relatively
paltry -- for Toyota -- $50 million into Tesla through the
purchase of common stock. Tesla will also take over the NUMMI
manufacturing plant in Fremont, CA that was to be shutdown after
GM went bankrupt and Toyota was left without a partner to run the
"I sensed the great potential of
Tesla's technology and was impressed by its dedication to monozukuri
[Toyota's approach to manufacturing]," said Toyota Motor
Corporation President Akio Toyoda. "Through this partnership, by
working together with a venture business such as Tesla, Toyota would
like to learn from the challenging spirit, quick decision-making, and
flexibility that Tesla has. Decades ago, Toyota was also born as a
venture business. By partnering with Tesla, my hope is that all
Toyota employees will recall that 'venture business spirit,' and take
on the challenges of the future."
According to Tesla CEO Elon Musk -- and
by Autoblog -- by keeping NUMMI open, 1,000 employees will
be brought back into the fold to build new electric vehicles. Those
1,000 employees could pump out roughly 20,000 vehicles in the first
year. However, the plant has the capacity to build up to 300,000
vehicles a year and can employ up to 10,000 workers.
"The Tesla Factory effectively
leverages an ideal combination of hardcore Silicon Valley engineering
talent, traditional automotive engineering talent and the proven
Toyota production system," said Musk. "The new Tesla
Factory will give us plenty of room to grow."
"We look forward to learning and
benefiting from Toyota's legendary engineering, manufacturing, and
production expertise," continued Musk.
Tesla couldn't have asked for a better
partner in Toyota to develop electric vehicles. Toyota has a vast
portfolio of hybrid vehicles and expertise in electric motors and
battery design. The company also has very deep pockets and a wealth
of knowledgeable engineers.
And this announcement also helps push
Toyota's current woes concerning vehicle
safety and recalls to the back burner.
With Toyota's backing, we can count on
the Model S sedan being on track for its 2012 debut. The Model S will
have a base price of $49,900 after a $7,500 federal tax credit, dash
to 60 mph in around 5.5 seconds, and will have a driving range of
roughly 300 miles.
Despite all the positive news
surrounding this announcement, there is one big loser in all of this:
the town of Downey, California. Tesla was all set to work on an
assembly plant in the town until it was wooed away to the Fremont.
"To think of all the time and
effort that has been needlessly wasted by Downey due to Tesla
misleading us is unconscionable," said
Downey Mayor Pro Tem Luis Marquez, according to The Downy
Patriot. "The question must now be asked if Tesla plans to
reimburse all the costs associated with their underhanded negotiation
"Mr. Musk gave me his word Tesla
would be coming to Downey. Today I learned the same lesson several
other cities have learned when dealing with Mr. Musk,"
complained Councilman Mario Guerra. "I learned just how
disingenuous Tesla was in their dealing with Downey and I now have a
new appreciation why the public is fed up with corporate America. To
think, Downey had planned to sign the lease tomorrow."

United Nations FCU CUSO Acquires Industrial Coverage Corp.
To provide a wider array of insurance programs to its members, UNFCU Financial Services LLC said it has acquired Industrial Coverage Corp., a privately held commercial and personal insurance agency.
UNFCU Financial is a wholly owned subsidiary and CUSO of the $3.7 billion United Nations Federal Credit Union in Long Island City, N.Y.
Under terms of the deal, UNFCU Financial, through its Insurance Centre, will significantly enhance its product and service capabilities for its members in the United States who are the active and retired staff of the United Nations community and their families, according to the CUSO.
The Patchogue, Long Island, N.Y.-based ICC will continue to operate under the Industrial Coverage Corp. name, serving its existing and new clients directly, UNFCU Financial said.
Among ICC's lines are auto and property insurance for businesses with business income interruption, general liability, property of others and crime insurance included in their suite of business owner policies.
Founded in 1958 by Michael J. Romeo, ICC is a family-owned insurance agency. The firm said it serves more than 3,500 clients and will remain in Patchogue along with three generations of the Romeo family and more than 20 other ICC professionals.
"We will remain a family agency, but are just part of a larger family," said Joseph M. Romeo, president of ICC, who with his brother Michael A. Romeo Sr., executive vice president, will continue in leadership roles.
With the acquisition, UNFCU Financial said it will have more leverage with and access to insurance carriers and products for personal insurance, as well as to comprehensive business insurance, an ICC specialty area and one the CUSO plans to enter.
The full integration of the two organizations will be completed within the next 30 days, according to UNFCU Financial.
William Predmore, president/CEO of UNFCU, said the combination of the organizations will drive growth and position CUSO as a regional force in the insurance brokerage industry.
"We are known across the industry and our membership for our long history of innovation and I could not think of a better way to begin 2013 than by delivering more options and resources in the service of risk management for our members and their families stateside," Predmore said.

WTF? Damnit, if I were running ATI and knew this **** to be an issue... I would have popped out and made it public on the website "HERES WHAT YOU CAN DO.....

Welch wrote:Yeah, its just lame that you have to use the mobility modder to run something... very lame.
Ohh , I didn't mean that Nvidia doesn't have problems with their driver releases and bugs/fixes that need to be made (including this issue). Just that you simple get one of like 2 or 3 drivers, and BAM thats it. No figuring out which version or whether your using a mobile chip, just all unified. Sure the file is larger but who really cares with connections averaging 10mbps and hitting 15 no problem these days. You can download that 100-200 megs in a matter of a minute. I'm assuming that nvidia's drivers are still like this, no need to use Mobile drivers vs desktop parts right?

c0d3h4x0r wrote:There's nothing unreasonable about it. Either WHQL needs to do FAR more thorough testing on a specific driver release before certifying it, or they need to dictate an ongoing frequent release schedule for the drivers until all known issues are fixed. If a device maker wants to get that WHQL certification and be able to advertise it, then their drivers had better damned well work correctly. There's nothing unreasonable about that.

Two weeks
ago we reported that Apple, Inc.'s (AAPL)
lawsuit against Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN) in
Oakland, California federal court was going nowhere fast. Upset about
Amazon's use of the term "Appstore" ("Appstore for
Android"), Apple sued claiming Amazon had infringed on its trademark
"App Store".
It sought
an injunction forcing Amazon to temporarily cease using the name while the case
was decided. However, the presiding judge said at the time that Apple's
evidence of customer confusion was weak and that they were considering denying
the motion.
Now Judge Phyllis Hamilton has made good on that threat, smacking down
Apple's request for a preliminary injunction.
Apple's case seems to be going nowhere. Judge Hamilton reaffirmed on
Wednesday that Apple had failed to present compelling evidence that customers
would confuse Amazon's store for Apple's, or vice versa. The judge also
expressed skepticism over the last several weeks about Apple's arguments that
the trademark was non-generic.
A trial is set to begin October 2012.
While the preliminary injunction does not officially affect the trial outcome,
it does set the mood for the trial. Preliminary injunctions (PI) are typically
granted if the evidence is strong or there's a compelling case that irreparable
damage will occur if the injunction isn't granted. A denial of a PI
request can have the opposite effect -- it can indicate pre-trial that the case
is weak and that the alleged harm isn't great.
Microsoft Corp. (MSFT)
is currently in the midst of a lawsuit it filed against Apple on the grounds
that the term "App Store" was overly generic.
The outcome of these trials could affect many players in the industry.
Apple has fired off many cease and desist letters, including ones
to the owner of pcappstore.com, and open source
startup Amahi.

Do you think we could put together a viable package to snag the 8-12th from say.... Charlotee, Milwaukee or Detroit, and maybe scoop up a guy like Fredette after we use our #1 overall pick?
Do you think we could put together a viable package to snag the 8-12th from say.... Charlotee, Milwaukee or Detroit, and maybe scoop up a guy like Fredette after we use our #1 overall pick?
I remember hearing that BC doesn't want a second pick because he thinks this team already has too much youth, which will be added to with the Rap's first pick. I kind of agree. A young team needs some vets - hopefully vets with winning experience, if not some championship experience - in order to show the young'uns what's what, like how to pull out a victory in a close game, how to close out a game in which you're up, how to play strong for 82 games, and how to play in the playoffs.
That being said, Fredette while being able to score, is apparently terrible on D, and no one knows how he's going to be able to guard the NBA point. The last thing the Raps need is another massive defensive liability on the floor. Unless they were somehow able to move Bargnani, then they'd simply be swapping one for the other, but in this case, they'd be moving the liability to a position where it's less damaging (that is, not at the C - the last line of defense), and adding a legit 3 point threat to their wing roster.
Charlotte is clearing space and have Oak as an assistant, and Oak has repeatedly, repeatedly said that no team can win with a player like Bargs at the 5, so I doubt they're gonna want him. Detroit, maybe, if we took Richard Hamilton in return, but, again, I dunno 'bout that.
Otherwise, I don't know what other player would be worth trading for a lower pick. Everyone else seems to have some pretty good upside I'd be willing to explore. Others, like Weems or J.Wright, probably aren't enough on their own, or even in combo, to warrant getting a lotto pick back. Could be wrong though.
I'd rather trade for a slightly lower pick and grab Faried
Add Faried to Davis and Amir and where/when does he play?
As for trading to get another pick...if we could do a sign and trade with Evans involved with a Weems we may be able to grab a 15-18 type pick from a playoff team that needs a little grit in the lineup. Also, Barbosa may be able to fetch a late first rounder.
I love Jimmer, but he is not a top 5 pick.
Jimmy is overrated and overhyped by the broadcasters.
Remember Tranjon Landon (sp?)
Fredette seems like a kid that with alot of work could have some Nashty potential, maybe only because i saw the Santa Clara game on replay the other night and ive got nash on the brain, but he could also just be another roko ukic....FAIL.
I would take Jimmer,ONLY if he has the mindset and motor of Tyler Hansborugh. Which is...to not only work hard and practice hard, but play like the entire world is mocking him because he is a overhyped white guy that no one think he can take on anyone from the league.
I thought Jonny Flynn was far more electric in his NCAA tournament, got drafted #6 and has had his problems in the NBA. One has to be careful of overevaluating players in the spotlight at this tournament.
That's why Minnesota took Rubio as well in case Flynn didn't pan out..
Oh wait...
Watched Jimmer play for the first time last night and I was impressed. I know that's just one game but apparently he's been doing that all year. She showed some good vision with his passing (much more than Bayless IMO) and is obviously an awesome scorer. He's not just a shooter but he can finish around the rim too. The guy scored 43 points against a very athletic SDSU team so I'm pretty confident he'll be able to get his points in the NBA too.
Defense wise, like some others said, there's not too many PG's that can guard opposing PG's in the NBA. How many people are quick enough on D to stop Westbrook or Rose or Rondo or...I can go on and on. Even those guys can't guard each other (the only exception may be Rondo). I think with the no hand-check rules now, there's no way way you can stop those guys for an entire game. I think jeff_hostetler alluded to it - the Center has to be your last line of defense and with the center that the Raps have now, pairing Jimmer with Bargs would be a disaster. But with a center more defensive minded, I wouldn't mind seeing Jimmer in a Raps (or Huskies) uniform.
A lot of Flynn's issues has to do with the scheme they had in 'sota tho. He's got potential.
I'd like a mid-first rounder to select Tristan Thompson. I don't care if he backs up Ed or whatever, the kids gonna be a solid NBA'er I believe. Plus he'd be the first hometown(BTown is close enough) boy on the Raptors roster, ever!
Just one year away... Bruno is almost here!
Yeah I agree. I usually throw that kind of attitude to the wind but I think a Canadian kid like Thompson could really become a fan favorite and help the city. Trade Bargs and roll with a Ed/Amir/Thompson lineup.
Thompson is undersized, he can't play C. Not to mention if Bargs is gone this team has no consistent scorer.
I would select honeycutt. just cause of the cool name!
In all seriousness, its hard to get those picks and most teams want more for them then they are worth.

Not that I think that we will not make the playoffs, because I do think we will...
I still believe we went from having a mediocre season where we were not accomplishing anything, to being in the best case scenario:
Even if we miss the playoffs, we all will know its because we ran out of time, not because we were "only good enough" for 9th. That really is the best case for us heading into next year.
Fact is, we will probably be swept if we only get into 8th, so making the playoffs is just an affirmation of the same point...that
1. Players like Amir and DD have made huge leaps this year
2. we are unquestionably a better team with a Lowry-Gay combo leading us
3. We are going to get better next year, with Jonas and T-ross improving, as well as just having a full training camp together.
Whether or not we make the playoffs, the above is true and I am already more excited about the future of this team than I have been in a while....
Anyway, back to the playoff race!

Onsite Coverage: NCUA Board Clarifying Proposed Fixed Assets Rule
ALEXANDRIA, Va. — The NCUA's proposed rule regarding federal credit union ownership of fixed assets doesn't make any substantive changes to the rule; rather, it merely clarifies the regulation so credit unions better understand how to comply.
The proposed changes, revealed Thursday during the regulator's March board meeting, replace regulatory text with so-called "plain language," add an introductory section, reorganize existing definitions and add new ones, and clarify the waiver process.
Staff Attorney Pamela Wu told the board when presenting the proposed rule that it redefines terms that credit unions had told the NCUA were unclear.
Specifically, the rule redefines terms in a provision that requires a credit union to partially occupy unimproved property, with both the "partially occupy" and "unimproved property" definitions receiving additional clarification.
The proposed rule also intends to clarify the NCUA's expectations for waiver requests, as well as its obligations in reviewing those requests.
In the proposal, the NCUA issued an informal comment request for ideas to improve the wavier process, admitting the current rule is somewhat inconsistent, uneven and burdensome in some circumstances.
"The board emphasizes that NCUA is committed to making the agency's waiver process more consistent and user friendly and welcomes public comment on ways of doing so," the proposed rule said.
Language treatments proposed would clarify exactly when a particular requirement or limitation is subject to waiver by the NCUA, and would describe the agency's obligations in each provision that is subject to a waiver.
Comments on the proposed rule are due 60 days after it is published in the Federal Register.
The NCUA Board also approved a community charter conversion request from the $313 million Cinfed FCU of Cincinnati. The credit union has penetrated 74% of its potential current membership and has seen its primary select employee group, the federal government, downsize in recent years, Chairman Debbie Matz said. She said the conversion "makes sense for the long haul" of the credit union.
As of Dec. 31, 2012, Cinfed served nearly 30,000 members, all gained from SEGs. The conversion will expand the credit union's field of membership to include a four-county area in the Cincinnati metropolitan area. Three of the four counties are across the Ohio River in Kentucky: Boone, Campbell and Kenton. Hamilton County, the fourth county, is located in Ohio and includes Cincinnati itself.
Matz asked Consumer Access Analyst Elliot Weiss why Cinfed requested to serve only four of the 14 counties that make up the Cincinnati metropolitan statistical area. He said the four counties form a well-defined local community, which is designated as a "Core Based Statistical Area" with a population of 2.5 million or less.
Additionally, the four counties provide public transportation access to Cinfed locations, he said.

Does the roof of your home or commercial building spring leaks whenever a storm passes through? Seen any telltale discoloring or water stains on your ceiling? Has a fallen branch from a tree left a gaping hole in your roof? Call us now to speak with Shippensburg Pennsylvania roofer who can address your roofing issues. From repair to maintenance to roof replacement, you'll get an Shippensburg PA roofing company who can do it all. Give us a call right now, we have customer service standing by to take your call. 833-111-6155
You know when your Shippensburg PA roof needs repair. It's not just leaks dripping from above. Brown, discolored stains form on your ceiling. You see curling, cracked or missing shingles on your roof. You find asphalt granules from your composite roof on sidewalks or driveways after a rainstorm. You also know that delaying minor roof repairs means major expense in the future as rainwater can begin rotting roof decking and causing leaks elsewhere on the roof of your Shippensburg Pennsylvania home or business.
If you have noticed any signs of wear on your roof. Please give us a call now 833-111-6155 to speak with a Shippensburg roofer, who will be able to schedule an appointment immediately.
Unless the roof on your Shippensburg Pennsylvania home is made from slate or clay tiles, at some point it will need replacement. Different types of roofing material have varying lengths of service life. Replacing a roof in Shippensburg PA generally includes removing old roofing material and making any necessary repairs to the decking (the substrate beneath roofing material, either oriented strand board aka OSB or—preferably—pressure-treated CDX plywood). A new roof is then installed with a felt layer of tarpaper placed between the decking and the shingles.
While most Pennsylvania cost-conscious property owners generally opt for composite-asphalt shingles for their building's roof, their service life can widely vary depending upon the quality of materials. Some may last only 15 years while the longevity of top-shelf composite shingles may endure as long as half a century. Many Shippensburg, PA residents prefer other materials like wood shingles/shakes or standing-seam metal roofing for more compelling visual aesthetics. These materials may last anywhere from 25 to 40 years. For a roof that truly lasts a "lifetime," choose clay tile or slate. All roofing materials, particularly wood, need scheduled maintenance performed to reach the full potential of their intended service life.
Contact us today to find Shippensburg roofing professionals who can replace your roof based on your needs and expectations.
The most common roofing system used in Shippensburg, based on cost and service life, is composite-asphalt shingles. Those of the highest quality may well last the remainder of your lifetime if installed and maintained properly. Remember—never power wash composite-asphalt shingles and immediately remove any moss or lichens found growing on their surface.
Metal roofs aren't just for commercial buildings anymore. They're found on homes across Shippensburg, PA, prized for their visually-compelling appearance and longevity. Correctly installed, standing-seam metal roofing systems will last up to 50 years. Maintenance is key to this roof's service life and performance; metal panels need to be checked periodically for fastener and sealant integrity.
The most visually attractive as well as longest-lasting roofing systems are those made from slate and clay tiles (such as those found on Mediterranean- or Spanish-style homes). Shippensburg home with roofs made from slate and clay tiles last for centuries, offering unmatched durability and a timeless look. Key to maintaining these roofs is prompt replacement of cracked tiles and weathered flashings (typically metal but any pliable material that prevents roof leakage, used with projections like chimneys or dormers or adjacent walls).
Wood shingles and shakes (thicker and more durable than shingles) are also popular in Pennsylvania. Shakes last longer than shingles but both need attentive maintenance, as the timely removal of moss and lichens is vital to its longevity. Too, curled, cracked, split or cupped shingles or shakes need immediate replacement.
No matter the composition of your Shippensburg, PA roof, we have roofing specialists to service, maintain, repair and replace your roof. Don't let roofing problems overwhelm you with exorbitant replacement and repair costs. Call us today to protect the value of your home or business and receive the peace of mind a secure and properly maintained roof.
