In Ocean City, it's going to be interesting to see how the re-emergence of the town's subcommittees works out in the long term.
At this point, it's known subcommittees will be formed once again in Ocean City after being abruptly abolished in October of 2010. The previous council disbanded all of them for the most part with the idea it would allow each of the Mayor and Council members to hear all the information simultaneously while also providing greater transparency. Whether that ever happened is debatable. Those of us in the media prefer the previous committee format because it gives us more content to report on an opportune basis.
Exactly what structure the new subcommittees will take is not a certainty at this point, and it appears City Manager David Recor will formulate some options for the council to mull over in the coming weeks. Not all of the committees are expected to return, but surely there will be at least a handful reinstated.
At City Hall, it's no surprise there is a division among the new council. The last election resulted in the two senior members of the former dominate council majority, Jim Hall and Joe Hall, being defeated and replaced by former City Manager Dennis Dare and Joe Mitrecic, who had served two terms previously before losing in 2010. That drastic shakeup resulted in Council members Brent Ashley and Margaret Pillas immediately being put in the minority on many issues and tilting the power to Mayor Rick Meehan, Council President Lloyd Martin and Council members Doug Cymek, Mary Knight, Dare and Mitrecic.
The inevitable contention, and resentment on some levels, has remained under the radar for the most part since the election. Battle lines are now being seen, however, on some issues. The major differences of opinion seem to broadly deal with government structure and policy approaches to spending and budgeting.
Discourse can be healthy among elected officials. It's okay to disagree over committee formations but that doesn't mean those in the minority should not be a part of the process. I am interested to see which committees the individual council members desire to sit on and whether everyone participates.
At Monday's meeting, the Berlin Mayor and Council listened to the objections, mostly from the business community, regarding the stormwater utility and then quickly voted unanimously to approve the utility and the subsequent fee structure.
While the views expressed during the public hearing were varied, a great majority of the 22 speakers signed up were opposed to the utility, specifically the fee structure that put 80-plus percent of the cost of the private sector subsidization at the hands of town businesses. Understandably, Berlin business owners take umbrage with that vast disparity.
Above all, the only non-option in this entire stormwater debate was to do nothing. The town has done just that for too long. The best course as of now is to agree to disagree over the fee structure and hope the town does in fact immediately address some of the major flooding problems in town. I applaud the Mayor and Council for finally resolving to target stormwater improvement projects in town and am hoping for the best.
However, my guess is Worcester County and Atlantic General Hospital are not going to simply accept this new fee without some action. Whether it's through the courts or direct communication with the town to negotiate a cap of some sort is unknown, but I'm guessing this is not over. With the four public schools located in Berlin, Worcester County will have to find $14,825 in its next budget to fund the new fees, and Atlantic General Hospital will have to cough up $5,025. Worcester Preparatory School is looking at a new expense of $3,750. That's going to be challenging for all of them.
I will be watching closely to see if any of these entities seek to challenge the fee structure in some fashion.
I have been a diehard Ravens fans since they moved to Baltimore in 1996 and played their first games at the old Memorial Stadium, a frequent haunt of mine since I lived four blocks away while attending Loyola University Maryland. Therefore, my Super Bowl prediction should not come as a surprise — Ravens 30-49ers 19.

...and everything nice.
Here is the companion to the puppy dog quilt I posted a few days ago. I have really been having fun with the FMQ! Figures are the hardest for me to do, but these little baby quilts (42 X 42) are the perfect size for practicing on, bigger than a practice "sandwich" but not so big that I have to wrestle to keep it on the table.

Bill Ackman Isn't Leading The Herbalife Shorters: He *IS* The Herbalife Shorters
Hedge fund manager Bill Ackman thinks nutritional products company Herbalife is a pyramid scheme, and today he presented a detailed case, put together by his analysts, that he thinks will prove it to the wider public.
He has already placed a big bet against the company, although to take some of the edge off the self-interest element, he has also said that all the profit he makes from this bet (assuming he turns a profit) will go to charity. By making his case public, he's also inviting others to make similar bets.
Good luck with that.
In an interview with Bloomberg TV this afternoon, Mr Ackman said his fund has over $1 billion riding on this bet, and is short over 20 million Herbalife shares as part of the trade. According to Factset, there is currently about 20.7 million Herbalife shares on loan for short trades, meaning that Mr Ackman's fund doesn't just have the largest short position in the company — it pretty much IS the short position.
And as Markit told Corporate Intelligence earlier today, about two thirds of all the Herbalife shares available to be borrowed are already out on loan (nearly all of them, it seems, to Mr Ackman).
That means those who want to tag along behind Mr Ackman and get in on the Herbalife shorting action will find it increasingly difficult, and expensive, to do from now on. You could try buying some put options, but those will likely get more expensive as well, if the market keeps turning against the company.

With the hope that court appearances will not be part of his future, Brenden O'Neil was celebrated as the latest graduate of St. Johns County Juvenile Drug Court on Wednesday.
"Don't try to run from this," O'Neil told the other youths in Judge Clyde Wolfe's courtroom. "Do your best and stick with them. They're here to help you."
After spending more than a year in the drug court program, O'Neil, 18, had all of his charges dismissed.
However, getting to Wednesday's ceremony was a serious challenge for O'Neil and his family. He faced strict guidelines and daily drug tests to make it. The entire family had to participate in counseling.
"It was one of the hardest things we've ever done," said Jack O'Neil, Brenden's father. "Nothing that's rewarding is easy."
The graduation preceded the day's juvenile hearings before Wolfe.
"(Brenden's graduation) should serve as an inspiration to the other members of this program," said Ralph Cumberbatch, coordinator of the St. Johns County Juvenile and Adult Drug Court program.
The purpose of the juvenile drug court is to rehabilitate minors with addiction problems without removing them from their homes.
The goal is to address and change potential criminal behavior before participants reach the adult judicial system. Not everyone makes it.
State Attorney R.J. Larizza was the keynote speaker and was joined by public defender James Purdy — both of the 7th Circuit — as well as members of the drug court team.
"If you're in the drug court system, you got a break and you got help," Larizza said to his audience. "Now it's time for you to say, 'I've accomplished something, but it's only the beginning.'
"My challenge to you and my hope is that you never find yourself on the wrong side of the law."
O'Neil and his family said the drug court program was the type of life-changing intervention they needed. They all agreed it was a much better alternative to incarceration.
"We're very lucky to have this program," said Kriszty Hegedus, Brenden's mother. "I really felt my personal ability to help him (was that) I couldn't do it anymore.
"I think I reached a point where I thought I was in a black hole and didn't know how to climb out."
Being in the program gave O'Neil little choice but to follow the rules, which is what he needed at the time.
"It put me on the right track," he said. "It made me stay clean."
One of the keys to the success of the program could be the "tough love" approach employed by the administrators.
They don't tolerate those who break the rules, but the goal is to build the self-esteem of the participants rather than just shaming them.
O'Neil and his family certainly appreciated the way they were treated.
"It was like holding your hand but giving a scolding at the same time," Hegedus said.
Added Jack O'Neil, "You're hugging these people when you leave (the program). That tells you everything you need to know."

Hurricane Proof Gable Roof Shed
This 12' wide x 20' long x 15' high shed was pronounced the Taj Mahal of sheds by the city building code inspector. All sheds of this type must pass hurricane standards of the State of FL. It is hurricane-strapped at every junction of wood to wood, which means all studs are strapped to all plates, all plates are huuricane- strapped to either the roof trussses or the floor joists, etc. The entire building is 5000# hurricane-strapped to eight, four-foot screw anchors. I used pressure treated 2x8's for the floor joists, 2x4's for wall studs, 2x6's for the celing joists, and 2x4's for the self-constructed trusses. The exterior walls ar covered with TI-II sidfing. The gable roof allows for a spacious 12' x 20' x 6' attic. The Anderson doors are steel with Schlage door knob and dead bolt locks. The shed has 60 amps of electric service. I spent 6 months building this project, and yes, would do it again.

This a awesome shed and it gives me some great ideas for my own. Great job!!

"March, April, May and even June of last year were the driest on record," said Charles Dalton of the Little Rock National Weather Service. "This year is vastly different."
Russellville is 1.09 inches above normal just for the month of June and 3.47 inches above normal for the year. Since January 1, Russellville has received 25.52 inches of rain.
But even though the state has had its fair share of rain in 2013, summer rolls into the Arkansas River Valley this week with temperatures racing into the low to mid-90s and the heat index will go well over 100 degrees later this week.
It is the time of year to think about staying cool.
Dalton said it looks like the pattern for the summer will be around normal, or maybe slightly cooler, temperatures and around normal, or maybe slightly higher, rain fall amounts.
"It's a little harder to tell weather patterns in the summer. In the winter, there are more definite patterns to look for," Dalton said.
He also said that the chances for summer thunderstorms were pretty good.
"We've been seeing more rain and will probably continue to see more rain," Dalton said.
Temperatures are rising this week with forecasts in the 90s, but Dalton said that will probably change next week.
"This week, we will be in the summer pattern with temperatures rising. Next week will probably be cooler and rainier," Dalton said.

The 4 Moms of 35+ Kids are discussing what large families do about tithing, saving for college, and saving for retirement on one income.
See what the other moms do about saving and giving:
First, I will address what many call tithing.
We see that in the Old Testament, God required the Israelites to tithe 10% of their possessions. This meant giving back to the Lord a portion of what he had given them.
In the New Testament, we are not told what amount should be given, but only that we are to do it cheerfully. 2 Corinthians 9:7 "Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver."
We see that some Christians in the New Testament gave everything they had. Acts 4: 34-35 "For from time to time those who owned land or houses sold them, brought the money from the sales and put it at the apostles' feet, and it was distributed to anyone who had need."
Some Christians pretended to give more than they really gave. Acts 5: 1-4 "Now a man named Ananias, together with his wife Sapphira, also sold a piece of property. 2 With his wife's full knowledge he kept back part of the money for himself, but brought the rest and put it at the apostles' feet. Then Peter said, "Ananias, how is it that Satan has so filled your heart that you have lied to the Holy Spirit and have kept for yourself some of the money you received for the land? Didn't it belong to you before it was sold? And after it was sold, wasn't the money at your disposal? What made you think of doing such a thing? You have not lied just to human beings but to God."
We are to give to the needy, but it should be done in secret. Matthew 6:2-4 "So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you."
For the above reasons, we do not require our children to give a certain amount, nor do we give them a dollar from our own earnings and tell them to put it in the collection plate when it passes by. They know that not only their parents, but God himself expects them to give cheerfully of "what you have decided in your heart to give." They see us putting our offering in the collection plate each Sunday and they do the same whenever they have the means.
For college savings, we have a small amount set aside in a 529 plan that has been funded by gifts given to our children.
Our children understand that we expect them to mostly pay for college themselves (as I did years ago) or to get scholarships. I graduated from college in 4 years, with grades high enough to make the Dean's List, while waiting tables each night. I was very proud to have accomplished this and because I was using my own hard earned money, I was sure to study diligently and attend each class regularly.
As for retirement savings, we contribute regularly to IRA's in each of our names. We max out the allowed contribution each year, hoping we won't be a burden to our children in our old age.

ATLANTA — Gov. Nathan Deal said Tuesday he wants to continue reforming Georgia's criminal justice system with a focus on helping inmates transition back into society.
Deal became emotional during a speech to the Atlanta Press Club as he talked about getting to know inmates who provide catering services at the governor's mansion during special events.
He said he plans to ask the state's criminal justice reform commission, which has worked on reforming the adult and juvenile justice systems, to work on helping prisoners make it on the outside.
"If you don't want them to come back to prison, you are going to need to create a situation where they won't, in effect, be forced to go back to prison," Deal said. "If they can find employment, if they can find a place to live, I believe many of them will work hard to earn their place in society."
Deal said he has tried to help find post-release work for some of the inmates who serve food at official banquets and also do yard maintenance.
"They work hard. They appreciate the opportunity for a chance in life again," Deal said. "People who have seen the dead end that crime leads to but are willing to work their way back out of it, I think, deserve the chance to do so."
Deal said efforts should include expanding educational opportunities for inmates and job training.
Last year, the commission worked on reforms aimed at reducing costs and repeat offender rates, while also offering greater flexibility to judges on sentencing. This year, Deal is expected to sign a bill with similar goals for the juvenile justice system.
The juvenile justice reform effort emphasizes community-based programs over residential detention centers for nonviolent youth offenders and mental health and drug counseling. The juvenile reforms are estimated to save the state nearly $28 million between now and 2015 and allow the state to drop plans to build two additional secure residential detention facilities.
"We had been a state, like many states, that had the hard-on-crime approach with very little flexibility built into the system," Deal said. "We recognized that if you were objective about the issue that we were not achieving the results that people expected."
The governor covered several topics during his speech. On the Port of Savannah, Deal said the state would consider moving forward with plans to deepen the harbor while waiting for the federal government to kick in its portion.
"It is possible. Would it be preferable? No. It would be preferable to get more than the $1.28 million that was in the president's budget this year and we're going to continue to press on that," Deal said.

Navigenics is a company focusing on personalized genetics and it launched its service just weeks ago. Dr. Dietrich Stephan, a human geneticist at Navigenics, agreed to answer some of my questions. And many thanks to David Harley who helped me a lot to get this interview done.
- As a co-founder, why did you take part in constructing such a service?
My mother died of breast cancer when she was in her early 30's due to a missed lump. This shaped my career and guided me toward developing effective early diagnostics and new knowledge-based therapies for human disease. I have been working in academia for the last 15 years to identify gene variants that cause human disease.
My group has been involved in identifying the genetic basis of a dozen monogenic diseases that now allows early genetic testing following the established principles of medical genetics and genetic counseling. While crucial to the families afflicted with these diseases, they remain rare on a population-wide basis.
Approximately 5 years ago I charged into the field of deciphering complex genetic disorders using ultra-high density SNP genotyping arrays and case-control study designs. We published the first paper using more than 500,000 SNPs (in Science), established new risk alleles for Alzheimer's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, progressive supranuclear palsy, and half have dozens more projects ongoing. I believe we are still the only group that makes our raw genotype data freely available on-line for any scientist to download and use .
These risk alleles that we have been finding have effect sizes that are on exactly the same order of magnitude scale as the environmental risk factors that we, as a community, accept as robust and communicate to members of our community on a daily basis (for example "you are obese so you are going to get a heart attack", or "you smoke so you are going to get lung cancer"). The risk communication for environmental risk factors does not require a testing lab because we can see or sense the exposures in most cases, and the method of communication is quick and crude in that we do not communicate effect sizes or interactive models between risk factors.
As my group continued to define allelic imbalances that are predisposed to human disease, I looked for a place where we could genotype individuals to assess their risk. There were no monogenic testing facilities that we felt comfortable performing the genotyping tests and interpreting the results. Additionally, there were no genetic counselors or physicians who felt comfortable in using genetic risk information to work with their patients proactively to prevent disease based on a holistic understanding of their risk. It is critical to remember that all human disease has a genetic component.
I started Navigenics with my partner David Agus, who is a clinical oncologist, to build the appropriate infrastructure to allow widespread assessment of genetic risks so that we, as a global community, could have a chance at effective prevention strategies to stave off a global health-care crisis in the next 50 years. The concept revolved around encouraging focused prevention, early screening, and early intervention to compress the burden of morbidity to the end of like and balance it with lifespan.
- Will you perform SNP analysis or whole-genome sequencing on patient samples?
We will perform both – starting with genotyping for common variants for common diseases and ending with whole-genome resequencing. You will see an exciting product line evolution over the coming year.
- Based only on SNPs, how can we tell patients about their disease-specific risks? Even if I have some SNPs that indicate a serious risk for coronary heart disease, there can be other SNPs, we don't know yet, which lower my risk. So can you really tell the patient about their risks?
The SNPs we are reporting on are valid associations (based on thorough validation) and are independent risk factors in population-wide studies. Most of our interpretations are based on studies for which a whole-genome scan has been performed and we know that there are no other large effect size SNPs lurking in the genome. We are making the assumption that independent risk factors when present do not cancel each other out, rather they compound risk. We have seen no validated exceptions to this assumption in the literature. As we become aware of exceptions to this assumption we can modify our reporting. We are providing the current state-of-the-art associations and informing members that their risks may refine themselves over time. Take the example again of environmental risk factors – the more you have the higher your likelihood of disease – but we know that we can't predict with certainty an outcome.
- What kind of role will web 2.0, the new generation of web, play in your service?
Web2.0 features will be employed primarily to ensure data privacy, but also to assist in visualizing very complex data sets and results so they are understandable to members and physicians.
- Why will people choose Navigenics instead of the other genetic companies?
Quality. Data will be complete with all risk genotypes being called. Genotypes will be generated in a CLIA-certified diagnostic environment. On staff genetic counselors assist in interpreting this information any time of the day or night. We will not give risk information on associations that are wrong. Our ethics, policy, clinical, scientific, and business advisory boards are experienced and made up of individuals who want to ensure this type of sensitive information is used correctly and accurately. For example we are sponsoring an industry standard-setting meeting in conjunction with the personalized medicine coalition this fall. When making health decisions you need to be able to trust the quality of the information you base those decisions on.
- What do you expect to see in the field of personalized genetics in the next few years?
Full resequencing of the genome, copy number analysis, and methylation status assessment where all of that data is run through the Navigenics interpretation engine to provide a rank-ordered list of health risks so that a focused prevention plan can be devised along with the physician, and a focused biomarker monitoring program for early detection is implemented. Early intervention equals better outcomes.

Update from Salt Lake City :: Nearing the End
The majority of my time was spent on the second floor using the microfilms – nearly 500 rolls have been pulled and reviewed. Of course, some of them were used only for a few minutes but others yielded numerous documents. Everything was scanned – microfilm to jpg files and books to pdfs, which resulted in nearly 2,000 new files. Several estate packets yielded 40 to 90+ documents and confirmed relationships previously found in undocumented publications!
Midst all the wonderful documents collected there was some degree of frustration now and then. Microfilm images were not always of the greatest quality. Some were downright awful - faded or extremely dark or handwriting that was totally illegible. And then there were the record groups you wanted to view but were not available at the library. Yes, believe it or not The Library does not have everything! LOL.
This is one of the better quality images – clear and sharp. But the handwriting leaves a little to be desired. The sixth entry from the top is my guy – Christian Schuder/Shuder in the 1842 tax list for Jefferson Township, Montgomery County, Ohio. The only way I knew for sure it was him is the first name is legible as is the description of the land '5 3 25 26' (R5 T3 S25 & S26) that he owned.
But just being here and having the opportunity to access so many records in one location was absolutely marvelous. All in all, I've tremendously enjoyed my stay here in Salt Lake City and have gotten a lot accomplished - almost everything that I had hoped to get and so much more. Of course, there is always more research that could be done but I think I need to spend some time to review and absorb all that was gotten – and get the information entered into my Legacy database!
I'll be leaving Monday morning – heading south, hopefully toward warmer weather in southern Arizona or perhaps southern California. I haven't decided on a specific destination yet but do know that I'll be returning to Salt Lake City in February - for the RootsTech conference! I'm excited about that. I was really disappointed to miss it last year. It couldn't be helped and hopefully nothing will come up that will keep me away this year! I'm looking forward to the conference, attending the sessions, and seeing some of my genea-blogging friends again!
Speaking of genea-blogging friends, I'd like to thank A. C. Ivory for stopping by to say "Hello" whenever he was at the library (did you hear about his sky-diving escapades?). Also, thanks to Ruby Coleman for spending time with me when she was here in October working on her new book. It was great to see you both again!

Wish I had been there with you, but, alas, my road traveled went in a different direction. Safe rides. Now go find someplace warm!ReplyDelete
Do you feel like a fixture in the library? And I thought two weeks was a long time (really not long enough) to be in Salt Lake City!! Safe travels wherever you go next.ReplyDelete
You're getting me excited about my trip to Salt Lake City - 7 weeks must have been fantadtic. See you at Rootstech.ReplyDelete
I'm jealous!ReplyDelete

BlizzCon 2009 headlines
BlizzCon adds up to a "substantial loss" for us, says Blizzard
All the exclusive, convention-only Murloc plushies in the world can't recoup the cost of cramming 20,000 frothing fans into the Anaheim Convention Center, it seems. During the 2009 Austin GDC, Blizzard co-founder Frank Pearce explained that – while certainly an excellent marketing opportunity – BlizzCon does quite a number on Blizzard's wallet. "BlizzCon is operated […]
Blizzard's Paul Sams talks licensing, marketing
During BlizzCon, Paul Sams, chief operating officer for Blizzard, sat down with IncGamers and talked a bit about how the company has changed over the years, especially with marketing. "When I think about what we have in store, what we have done, and how big BlizzCon has become, let alone our products – I mean, […]
BlizzCon 2009 destroyed - everything in one place
The news never sleeps. Thankfully, neither do Nathan, Steph and Johnny. BlizzCon 2009 brought a huge amount of new detail on Blizzard's portfolio over the weekend, including the announcement of a new Diablo III class and a brand new upcoming WoW pack in Cataclysm. You could try to get everything from the "internet". That would […]
BlizzCon 09 Press Panel: No charging for WoW mods, Blizzard iPhone games, more
We just got back from a press-only BlizzCon panel, wherein all questions were answered. Blizzard spilled its guts, and we recorded every excruciating detail. See all the carnage below: Guild housing probably isn't coming to WoW. It was talked about for both Wrath of the Lich King and Cataclysm, but Blizzard has relegated it to […]
BlizzCon 09: Blizzard uses StarCraft II map maker to create third-person RPG, shmup, Super Zerg
If you thought Blizzard's decision to let players to charge for created maps was the straw that broke the zergling's back, you might want to reconsider. During BlizzCon's StarCraft II gameplay panel, Blizzard showed off three custom maps that a few developers had whipped up in their free time. One was a third-person action-RPG, another […]
BlizzCon 09: Battlestar Galactica's Tricia Helfer to play Kerrigan in StarCraft II
Straight out of Blizzard's voice actor panel at BlizzCon, we've just found out that Battlestar Galactica's Tricia Helfer will be playing Sarah Kerrigan in StarCraft II. Helfer, who played the seductive Number Six on Battlestar, will be voicing Kerrigan in her creepy, twisted Queen of Blades form, and in flashbacks as good ol' non-genocide-bent Sarah. […]
BlizzCon 09: Diablo III Q&A panel
Blizzard held a Q&A panel with the developers for Diablo III at BlizzCon, and BigDownload has the highlights for you, which we have posted below. While the team is not talking about Player Vs Player gameplay in Diablo III at the moment they did say they want to avoid the "go hostile at any time" […]
Race changes coming to WoW
Is your WoW character starting to look uncomfortable in its own skin? Has your orc warrior's odd penchant for mooing and grazing about relegated him to the loony bin? Well, Blizzard's got a solution for you. During its WoW Q&A panel earlier today, Blizzard announced that race changes will be coming to WoW. The feature […]
A new hero class in WoW: Cataclysm? Don't count on it
When asked about the possibility of a new hero class during today's WoW Q&A panel at BlizzCon, the developer was fairly blunt. Odds are, the panelists said, Cataclysm won't add another member to what's currently a Death Knight-only club. Blizzard's reasoning was thus: WoW isn't racing to include "40 or 50 classes," and would rather […]
BlizzCon 09: Release date for Diablo III yet to be announced, says Blizzard
Yesterday, there were two different time-frames -of sorts- revealed for Diablo III. We contacted Blizzard to get some clarification on this, and were told by a company spokesperson that: "We haven't announced a release date for Diablo III." It all started when Geoff Keighely tweeted that StarCraft II and the new WoW expansion, Cataclysm were […]
BlizzCon 09: Diablo III trailers featuring the Monk
BlizzCon 09 started yesterday, and one of the reveals was the new playable class of the Monk for Diablo III. New environments with the borderlands and an evil-infested desert zone were also revealed. Five different videos for the new goodies were released by GameTrailers and Rock, Paper, Shotgun has all of 'em posted. Go watch […]
StarCraft II to support premium player-created maps
During its Battle.net BlizzCon panel, Blizzard announced that StarCraft II will allow players to put price tags on their created maps. Creators will, of course, see some cash for their hard work, but Blizzard didn't give an exact percentage. The hope is that this will encourage players to form small dev teams and craft complex […]
Cataclysm Panel: Guild advancement system detailed, new race/class combos, Raganaros returning
We just finished up at the BlizzCon WoW: Cataclysm panel and our news nets are full to bursting with wriggling tidbits. And you know what that means: info-dump, go! The expansion's adding multiple new advancement systems. First up, the Guild Advancement System allows guilds to level all the way to 20 by doing normal activities […]
BlizzCon 09: Day one all in one place
What an opening day! A brand new WoW expansion known as Cataclysm revealed. That will please the fans for a good couple of weeks once released. But wait! Is the impossible possible? Diablo III on consoles? Better yet, a release this year? "IMPOSSIBLE!" we hear you cry. Still, if you have missed anything from day […]

The BTB Awards are our look back at the best — and worst — of the tennis season. Today we try to pick our jaws off the floor as we relive some of the best shots of the year.
[2012 IN REVIEW: Report Card | Surprises | Meltdowns]
Ten Best ATP Shots of 2012:
1. Roger Federer saves set point with a no-look pass: Augh, you're too old to play tennis. Retire now, would you?
2. Grigor Dimitrov's behind-the-back half-volley: They don't call him "Baby Fed" for nothin'.
3. Rafael Nadal wrong-foots Roger: You have to be a special player to hit the hot shot in a rally that includes Federer's hitting a sharp-angle overhead backhand. Needless to say, Rafa's a special player.
4. Novak Djokovic's tweener/drop shot combo in the Shanghai final: The tweener is all fine and dandy, but the audacity of Djokovic's feathered drop shot is what gets me every time.
5. Bob Bryan goes tweener at the U.S .Open: At 5-5 in the second-set tiebreaker, Bob hits a defensive tweener and follows it up with a screaming inside-out forehand to earn set point.
6. Stanislas Wawrinka out-Feds The Fed: All those years playing in Federer's shadow pay off, as Wawrinka breaks the monopoly on Swiss hot shots.
7. Jerzy Janowicz's no-look dropper: If you watched the Paris Masters you know there were a slew of ridiculous Janowicz drop shots that could have made this list. But this stab off a rifled return down the line still gets me out of my seat.
8. Janko Tipsarevic's backhand zinger: Tipsy gets low to dig out a backhand pass that no one saw coming.
9. Gael Monfils hits a trick shot ... and actually wins the rally: We didn't get to see much of Monfils this year, what with his injury woes. But the guy delivered in Metz with this leaping, between-the-legs hit that eventually won him the point.
10. Sergei Bubka's no-look overhead smash: The point starts at the 42-second mark.
Ten Best WTA Shots of 2012:
1. Serena Williams shows off her speed: Serena left Victoria Azarenka in disbelief when she tracked down an impossible dropper to win the point.
2. Agnieszka Radwanska's point construction on display: I've been around a lot of people who say they don't understand the appeal of the crafty Pole's game. Here's Exhibit A of why I love watching her.
3. Radwanska shows her touch: Aaaaand Exhibit B.
4. Maria Sharapova goes lobbin' in the rain: As the rain fell in Rome, Sharapova knocks a perfect lob over Li Na.
5. Serena's mastery of the blue clay: Serena again shows off her movement, going wide to nail a forehand down the line against Azarenka in the Madrid final. You know it's a good shot when Serena struts.
6. Petra Kvitova gets her Navratilova on: How about the touch on this pick-up volley in New Haven?
7. Serena drops four straight aces in the Wimbledon final: Serena found herself in a third set against Radwanska in the Wimbledon final and wrenched back control of the match with this four-ace game.
8. Laura Robson goes down the line against Kim Clijsters: The is the WTA equivalent of Tipsy's backhand-down-the-line dig against Ferrer above. At 5-5 in the second set, Robson nails her lefty forehand down the line to put Clijsters one point away from retirement. The point starts at 15:52 in the video.
9. Coco Vandeweghe goes boom-boom in Stanford: It's shots like these off her forehand side that make you believe in her future.
10. Marion Bartoli clubs one down the line: Bartoli was the woman who ended Azarenka's 26-match winning streak, in Miami, thanks in large part to shots like this.
*****Did we miss your favorite shot of the year? Let a message in the comments.


text: I have a cluster of 8 Linux machines connected with gigabit ethernet (full duplex) to a HP Procurve 2848 switch. I am using the machines to do interactive distributed rendering. I have noticed that the final gather stage (where the intermediate images from the render nodes are sent back to the viewing node) has "hiccups" in the performance. These hiccups occur with as few as two render nodes, and become more common as I add more render nodes. With a 512x512 image the final gather usually takes a few milliseconds for each frame, but when the hiccups occur it is more like 200+ milliseconds. Since it is a full duplex switched network, there should not be any collisions happening. Since the image is less than 1 MB total, I don't think I am saturating the switch. I have checked the contents of /sbin/ifconfig and there are zero erroneous packets being reported. At this point I am really at a loss as to what is causing this. Any input on things to check would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Brendan !DSPAM:4767f1ff173268298414181! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

NORDO No More
I'm lucky to be here, I'll tell ya that. The other day, I just about fell out of the open door of the Cub, a mile south of the airport. For months, I've been fooling around trying to get a portable radio to work suitable for pattern communications, without success. I've been through two Icom VHF portables, various antenna connectors and finally, in desperation, a Sporty's SP400.
So I was testing it with a pattern entry call and a Baron 10 miles out�10 miles!�responded, asking if I'd be remaining in the pattern. I was so shocked I practically fell out of the door. Just to be sure, I called him back for a comm check. Loud and clear. Sounds great.
Having a working radio, I'm not ashamed to admit, makes for a better flying experience in the Cub. It's just more relaxing, if not necessarily for me, for those pilots who get nervous and irritated with a NORDO airplane in the pattern. NORDOs don't bother me in the slightest, but I understand why it makes others nervous, even if I think they're pretty high on the Aunt Jane scale. Throughout this long ordeal of sorting the radio, I could always listen�and did�only to hear other pilots commenting about that &^%$#(@ Cub with no radio. Now, they're all sweetness and light. They're right, too. It's just a beat safer if everyone has and uses a radio in the pattern.
Just for the record, our Cub has a properly installed antenna, complete with a regulation size metal ground plane and the coax and connectors are in good shape. Why the Icoms didn't work with it is a mystery, but I think it has to do with them being older radios whose components are degraded. The SP400 really packs some punch and delivers good RF and audio. It did, by the way, break, due to a corroded battery compartment. Sporty's fixed it and returned it within a week.
So, with a powerful radio at my fingertips�even got a push-to-talk on the stick�the other pattern dwellers are paying the price. Over the weekend, I was flying touch and goes to the grass adjacent to runway 5, which has left traffic. For some reason that escapes me, another pilot was doing the same, but flying right traffic to the pavement. Maybe this is my Aunt Jane threshold, but I found this utterly unacceptable. So I asked him to switch to left traffic, which he did.
So there. You give a guy a radio, expect consequences.

The Phils waste another good start as they lose to the Cubs, 4-1.
The Phils' offense continues to snooze as another good starting efoort, this time by Jamie Moyer, is wasted, as the Phils fall to the Cubs, 4-1.
The Cubs took the lead in the third as, with a runner on second, and with two men out, Starlin Castro hits an RBI single off the glove of third baseman Placido Polanco, knocking in Ryan Theriot, who had earlier singled, and then stole second, giving the Cubs a 1-0 lead. The Cubs would make it 2-0 in the seventh as, with a runner on second, and once again with two outs, Jeff Baker hits a sharp RBI single off the glove of Polanco, scoring Alfonso Soriano, who had earlier doubled. The Phils cut the Cubs lead in the eighth as, with runners on the corners, and with one man out, Ryan Howard hits an RBI ground out, 1-3, scoring Polanco, who had earlier doubled, and then went to third on Utley's single, making it a 2-1 Cubs' lead, while moving Utley, who had earlier singled, up to second base. The Cubs would get a pair of insurance runs in the ninth as, with the bases loaded, via a walk to Derrick Lee, Marlon Byrd being hit by the pitch, sending Lee to second, and a walk to Soriano, moving both Lee and Byrd up a base, and with two men out, pinch hitter Xavier Nady hits a two-run pinch hit single, knocking in Lee and Byrd, giving the Cubs a 4-1 lead, while sending Soriano up to second base. That would be the final score as a Phils' rally in the bottom of the ninth goes nowhere as Carlos Marmol records his seventh save of the season by striking out Shane Victorino with two men on base.
Jamie Moyer took the lost as he pitches seven strong innings, giving up only two runs on four hits and a walk, while striking out seven. His record is now 5-3 with an ERA of 4.30. Chad Durbin pitches an inning and a third, giving up two runs on one hit, two walks and a hit batter, while striking out two. J.C. Romero pitches two-thirds of an inning, giving up a hit, while striking out two. Tom Gorzelanny gets the win as he pitches six and two-thirds scoreless innings, as he is knock out of the box by a line drive in the seventh, giving up three hits and two walks, while striking out five. His record is now 2-4 with a 3.09 ERA. John Grabow receives his six hold of the season as he pitches an inning, giving up a run on two hits, while striking out a batter. Carlos Zambrano records his third hold of the year as he pitches a third of an inning, getting out the only man he would face. Carlos Marmol records his seventh save of the year as he pitches a scoreless ninth, giving up a walk and hitting a batter, while striking out two.
The Phils had just five hits in the ballgame, a double by Placido Polanco, and singles by Chase Utley, Ryan Howard, Jimmy Rollins and Raul Ibanez, with Howard having the only RBI on a ground out.
The Phils (24-15, 1st East) play the Cubs (19-22, 3rd Central) in the final game of the two game set in an afternoon game, already in progress. The Phils, behind Joe Blanton (1-2, 5.49), are presently leading the Cubs, behind Ryan Dempster (2-4, 3.49), 1-0, in the top of the fifth. The Phils are trying for a series spilt.


text: Ok-- but I see a couple potential issues with it from a teaching perspective: 1. The term is cryptic--so you have to explain it every time you use it. Something like "Serve up the mountain" is relatively intuitive and self-explanatory. "Human racquet" sounds like mumbo-jumbo. 2. We aren't used to thinking of our body parts as being passive burdens that we have to manipulate--when I move my hand, I perceive that as moving my hand, not as using my arm muscles to move a passive hand. So imagining that I am swinging a 10-pound racquet-arm combo doesn't really click for me. But hey, maybe I'll give it a try next time I hit. It can't possibly make my forehand any worse.

Keep a gun at home for safety, not properly locked and secured and it is stolen and become just another statistic of gun violence. To keep guns, especially hand guns in the home, there should at the very minimum be a requirement that the owner sign off on the requirement to have a gun security system such as a safe or other mechanism, registration, just like a car and proper training in order to own a hand gun. Now watch the 2nd amendment people scream when logic and common sense concepts are put forth.
a resident of Danville
on Mar 1, 2013 at 11:04 am
It's not a question of 2nd amendment screaming, Bill. It's simply that people who have a gun at home want to have it handy when an intruder arrives. Keeping it in a safe would defeat that purpose.
a resident of Danville
on Mar 1, 2013 at 12:36 pm
Sorry Lewy boy, but I'm in 1000% agreement with Bill. Irresponsible gun owners are almost as big of a problem as irresponsible gun store owners and gun show exhibitors. By the "keep it handy" logic, if the burglar beats you home, your own gun could easily be used on you. How ironic would that be? And how many kids do you think die every single year because of accidents in homes owned by people like you?

Anyone know who this little reprobate Fagen is?
a resident of San Ramon Valley High School
on Mar 1, 2013 at 2:28 pm
He was on the SRV / Lax team. Got caught smoking pot in the locker room. Nothing happened to him. Maybe if the Coach, Athletic Director and Parents would have done the right thing we wouldn't be reading this disgusting story.
a resident of San Ramon Valley High School
on Mar 1, 2013 at 5:45 pm
I suggest you actually get to know him before making comments like that 'john smith' i would like to clarify that he has infact not been charged for anythig yet so therefore he's innocent until they have substantial evidence to prove he did anything at all.
a resident of San Ramon Valley High School
on Mar 1, 2013 at 7:09 pm
I do know him. Every thing I stated in my earlier post is 100% accurate. The authorities must believe they have something on him to warrant such a high bail.
a resident of Danville
on Mar 2, 2013 at 8:34 pm
Brendan is a good kid and hasn't been proven guilty just yet. So stop talking about him like the scum of the earth like some child molester. Did anyone die? No. Was it his gun? No. He didn't have any intent to harm anyone or anything so shut up son...and who knows maybe he is the wrong guy all together in fact I wouldn't be surprised to be honest.
a resident of Danville
on Mar 3, 2013 at 8:29 am
Re: the comment above - I agree we need to remember that there is a legal process that must take place in order to convict. I would hazard to guess you are a friend of the young man in question, so I don't blame you for coming to his aid. That said, if it is found that it was him that held this woman and child at gunpoint (therefore changing their lives forever), it doesn't matter whether the gun was registered to him, or whether it was his intent to inflict harm. It would stand to reason that prisons are filled with people who had no intent to harm their victims, but panicked when discovered while robbing their homes.
a resident of Danville
on Mar 4, 2013 at 11:06 am
Those who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. Truth of the matter is that by the time most kids graduate high school, most have smoked pot on one or more occasions. Because this kid got caught, does not make him any more "disgusting" than you or the rest of the kids you went to school with, John Smith-- so don't be a judgmental hypocrite. My thoughts go out to the mother and child that were involved in this, I hope they are able to overcome the psychological trauma they must be faced with. There are a few things that bother me about this article, and the comments that follow the article. First off, what was the process in developing this kid as a suspect? Was he positively ID'd,was the property of the victim found in his possession? I hope that Danville PD has done a thorough job, and have something more than just a hunch before releasing his name to the public to have a field day with. Though we are lucky to have many wonderful officers that connect with our community, lets face it, as with any department, some still have not outgrown the "big boy on campus" attitude and can be a little too eager to show some power. I just hope for a fair and accurate investigation to all of this. If it is proven without a doubt that he did it, then he will have to accept his punishment; however, if it is found that he is innocent, I HOPE that Danville PD will make that information known, and that Danville Express and Danville Patch will show responsible journalism and make every effort to clear his name. Remember, he is from our community, there is a family unit that is having to go through this right now through no fault of their own. I just hope for a fair process for all involved.

Next time, keep driving and hop on the bridge...
Peter Luger's off Broadway is top notch...
I don't particularly eat red meat (once in a while). But when I do, I want to do it well.
I recently went to the Striphouse at 13 East 12th Street in the city, for my anniversary. I had the bone in rib eye.
I can honestly say it was the best steak I've ever had. Everything from the salad, appetizer, steak and desert were phenomenal. Instead of wine me and the wife had beers instead and cut the bill in half.
Awesome beer too
Any other places you guys recommend.
Next time, keep driving and hop on the bridge...
Peter Luger's off Broadway is top notch...
The best steak ever created is a baseball cut sirloin marinated in honey ale, grilled to perfection on my BBQ the next day.
One of my favorite topics....and outings. Nothing better than getting an enormous pour of whiskey at the bar of a steakhouse in advance of gorging yourself. Can't do it too often, obviously, as its not great for your health as well as your wallet.
JMO, but most high end steakhouses in NY do the meal right. At a certain price point, its more of your personal preference as to how a steakhouse approaches things as opposed to quality. If you're going to get someone competent cooking a dry aged steak, it should be delicious. Obviously everyone has a bad day, but I expect that when I'm paying $50 for a steak, it better be excellent. One of the biggest factors to me is customer service. There are probably over 30 steakhouses in NYC - if a place doesn't seem to give a **** about you, go somewhere else. Its too much of a buyers market not to be treated right when you spend that much money.
My personal favorites:
1. Ben and Jacks - I haven't been to Lugers in years because B&Js replicates the Lugers meal as close as possible to the real thing and better than any of the other spinoffs (Wolfgangs, Benjamins, etc.). Plus, you have the option of a full menu for other things if you don't like the Porterhouse, which is my favorite. Their potatoes are great as is their spinach. And the bar at the 5th Ave location is great.
2. Quality Meats - Great place to take your wife/gf. Doesn't feel like the classic steakhouse and also has some non-traditional sides that you don't always find. Never had bad service there either. If something is not right, they fix it ASAP.
3. Porterhouse - Another non-traditional steakhouse that is a great setting overlooking the park. Also a very good bar to eat at or get a drink before. Steaks are also great.
4. Del Friscos - Its a chain, but its damn good. Been to the one in Vegas which was also just as good.
5. Maloney & Porcelli - Haven't been in a while but I always had good meals there. Their crackling porkshank is terrific.
I didn't put Lugers down because that's kind of a given, but I just haven't been in a few years. Obviously need to go back despite pt #1. Wolfgang's, Dylan Prime, S&W's. Also really like the Strip House but you already covered that.
And the places that I don't like and will never go to (unless someone else is paying):
Ruth's Chris
Keens (some love it, I had two very questionable meals there).
Sparks - Don't really dislike it, the scene ain't my favorite though.
For a chain, Del Frisco's is tops. Their double eagle steak is ridonkulous. Even their bread puts other places to shame.
I went to Keens recently, my meal was fantastic.
Another vote here for Del Friscos. If you are ever in Dallas, go to the original location. Awesome. Another great steakhouse in Dallas is just down the street, III Forks. Once again, dry aged perfection.
In Tampa I would put Berns up against any other steakhouse in the land. Superb cuts of meat.
Most overrated city for steaks? Chicago. I have been to all of the staples in that town, and had truly horrible steaks. (Gene and Georgetti, etc).
Here in NYC, Luger's rules if a) you are in the mood for porterhouse, and b) you feel like dealing with the waiters and their attitude.
Del Frisco's is really good. Funny thing, about 3-4 years ago I thought the steaks were almost on par with their Dallas location. Then it seemed to slip, as I had 2 not so memorable meals there. Finally in the past year, they seem to have righted the ship. Don't forget to order the lemon cake (not on the menu) for dessert.
I've had some better than average steaks at the Capital Grille here in NYC as well.
Finally...if all that you care about is getting wasted, checking out "prime" waitresses, and eating a B to B+ steak, go to Nebraska Steakhouse. The waitresses will not let you down!!!
Gotta give Ben and Jack's a second vote. Place is awesome.

Lugers in Great Neck is the second best Steakhouse on the planet behind Lugers in Billyburgh in first place.
All the rest are tied for third place

Berkman tallies another four-hit game
Astros slugger experiences 15th such day in his career
Lance Berkman had four hits Sunday against Milwaukee, the 15th time in his career he has had a four-hit game.
His first three hits were a home run, a double and a double, respectively. Leading off the bottom of the 12th inning, Berkman stepped into the batter's box and stroked his fourth hit of the game, an infield single that traveled 65 feet and trickled under the glove of pitcher Mitch Stetter.
"You gotta be able to put a ball under the defense as well as over it," Berkman told the Houston Chronicle after the Astros' 8-6 win.
Zimmerman gets a rare day off: Ryan Zimmerman finally took a day off.
The Nats' young star had a planned day off on Sunday, giving up third base for the first time since Sept. 18, 2006, when Melvin Dorta was the team's starting third baseman. Zimmerman played in all 162 games last year.
"I knew I wouldn't want to" play 162 again, Zimmerman told The Washington Post. "It's tough. It takes a toll on your body. Two days of relaxing and doing nothing, you can't really tell anybody how much that does for you in the course of a long season. It's better for me. It's better for the team. It's better for everybody."
Zimmerman had played in 205 straight games, the second longest active streak. Only Atlanta's Jeff Francoeur, with 356 consecutive games played, has a longer one.
Benoit improving as the calendar turns: Joaquin Benoit seems past the arm weakness that he experienced in Spring Training. The right-hander has not allowed a run in two outings, and, with regular closer C.J. Wilson getting a night off after appearing in three straight games, he got a save on Saturday.
"I think I've figured some things out mechanically," Benoit told the The Dallas Morning News. "I don't think I got enough innings this spring, and I tried to do some things to get my arm strength up. It made my arm hurt a little bit, and all my pitches were up. But now my arm feels good."
Reed Johnson's catch leaves them aghast: On April 25, Reed Johnson made a head-long, diving catch at Nationals Park in Washington that people are still talking about -- and probably will be for some time. For Johnson, seeing his teammates react was the best part.
"Seeing [starting pitcher] Ryan Dempster's reaction and [then-left fielder] Mark DeRosa's reaction and [reliever] Kerry Wood's reaction was the best," Johnson told the Chicago Sun-Times. "They didn't say anything to each other -- they were just looking at each other. DeRosa's looking through the chain-link fence at Woody, Woody's looking back at him and they're kind of just staring at each other like, 'Did that just happen?' Those reactions, at least to me, were better than the catch, just to see those guys so excited about it."
Lee tops in month with 5-0 record: After going 5-0 with a 0.96 ERA in April, and going through a streak of 27 innings during which he didn't allow a run, Cliff Lee was named the American League Pitcher of the Month for April.
"It's nice to win the award, but I'm more concerned about our team winning games," the Indians' left-hander told the The Cleveland Plain Dealer. "We've got a long way to go."
Meche pitches seven shutout innings: Gil Meche delivered seven innings of scoreless pitching in the Royals' 2-0 victory over the Indians on Sunday.
"It was outstanding," manager Trey Hillman told MLB.com. "Everybody knows how badly he needed that -- and how badly we needed that. Like I said before the game, there's no better medicine than a 'W.'"
Sheets finds mechanics lead to sore 'love handles': Ben Sheets has reported no further triceps soreness since missing 10 days but some other parts of his body needed some readjustment.
"I'm sore in places I've never been sore in before," Sheets told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel before Sunday's game against Houston. "My 'love handles' are sore. I think my mechanics probably contributed to that."
Upton's shoulder not a fan of cold weather: B.J. Upton was back in the lineup Sunday for the first time since he was forced to leave Thursday's game with a strained left shoulder. Upton went 0-for-3 with one walk against Boston. Upton said he didn't feel any pain, but he did say he wasn't swinging the bat freely.
"When it was warm, it was fine, but going in and out of the cold weather [from the field to the dugout], it tends to get a little stiff," he told the St. Petersburg Times.
Debut on the horizon for Parisi: Cardinals pitcher Mike Parisi was recalled from Triple-A Memphis for Sunday's game against the Cubs. A starter in Memphis, Parisi feels he can fill a variety of roles.
"There's no real plan," Parisi told MLB.com. "They need innings. I'm still longed out from being a starter, to get some innings. I can come in for an inning, or I can come in for an out or start. It's kind of up in the air."
Delwyn Young provides option in a pinch: Delwyn Young, who was out of options when he made the Dodgers' roster out of Spring Training, is providing the club with a strong pinch-hitting option off the bench.
Despite the difficulties involved in hitting cold, Young has six hits in his first 15 at-bats for a .400 average as a pinch-hitter.
"I'm still learning," Young, who hasn't started a game, told the Los Angeles Times. "You have to pay more attention. You can't let little things get by you."
Cust sees dramatic rise in average: Jack Cust's slow start is a distant memory. The A's outfielder hit his third homer in four games while going 2-for-3 in Sunday's 3-1 win over the Rangers.
"He just looks loose out there," A's manager Bob Geren told the San Francisco Chronicle. "Maybe he's starting to see it better, but he's just relaxed."
Sore hamstring keeps Kinsler on the bench: Ian Kinsler was held out of the lineup for the second straight game Sunday due to a sore right hamstring. Kinsler told The Dallas Morning News that the hamstring had grown more sore during Friday's game.
Kinsler was active on the bases during the game and also slipped at second base while trying to make a play. When he woke up on Saturday, he felt soreness in the hamstring.
"I'm not worried about it," manager Ron Washington said. "It's just some tightness, and this is precautionary. If he's down a couple of days, we'll be OK."
Lieber makes jump from bullpen to rotation: Jon Lieber is set to get back into the starting rotation on Wednesday, his first start since June 20, 2007. While he's glad to have the opportunity, he also is hopeful that the man he is replacing, Rich Hill, will be back in that role sooner than later.
"Whatever the club needs me to do, I'm willing to do it," Lieber told MLB.com. "It's an unfortunate thing to me, because I think Rich Hill is a Major League pitcher. Right now, it's command issues. He'll be back up here soon. I want to see him back up here soon. We need him to be where he needs to be to help us win."

I keep reading the term "lamination" but can't find a good definition of what you mean. It is also not in the "pizza glossary". Could somebody define lamination in pizza?
I received my sheeter today and all I can say is I think this is the golden ticket!
I received my sheeter today and all I can say is I think this is the golden ticket! 3/4 HP and 3.5" rollers seems to have plenty of umpff to push a low hydration dough. I made a test dough tonight without the dry milk since I am waiting for that to be delivered. I will know in a few hours how well it performs. This already seems like quite a different process than using a rolling pin. Regarding the Shakeys recipe what do you think about adding straight malted milk for getting that yeasty flavor profile? I am sure a lot of the flavor development will come from being in the cooler overnight, but I am wondering just how much contribution to the profile comes from scrap pieces of dough. Those must be some highly flavored bits in there. I can't keep a "mother dough" of scraps going indefinitely or else I would want to make pizza every night!
I just pulled the trigger on a dough sheeter! Finally broke down and decided it was the missing piece to the ultimate crust I am after. (Not to mention it's use in making ravioli much easier!) I got a Somerset CDR-500 off ebay for $850 plus shipping. I have looked at these for quite some time and I think that is a good deal. I can't wait to try the RT clone and Shakey's recipes on this baby. This obsession is starting to get a little bigger...
$850! that's nuts! But then again, I have no clue as to the general cost of these things. Wow I guess I'm luck i'm not addicted to thin crust yet...
Hello People,I'm kinda new here. Been browsing a lot lately though.I find this post very intriguing and would like to try it out. The problem is the 1st part. Can someone please link me to the 1st part?TIA

ByBen Rooney
Mike Lynch, the founder of software company Autonomy, spoke with The Wall Street Journal on Tuesday after Hewlett-Packard alleged that Autonomy "used accounting improprieties" to inflate its underlying financial statements before H-P's $11.1 billion acquisition in October 2011.
H-P's press release is here, and further comment from the company and its auditors can be found in WSJ's story here.
Mr. Lynch says he wasn't aware H-P was preparing these allegations and that they are "utterly wrong and we reject them completely."
Here is WSJ's Q&A with Mr. Lynch:
WSJ: When were you first made aware of these allegations?
ML: We were not made aware. We have been ambushed. The first we knew was when the press release came out at around 1pm U.K. time.
WSJ: You had no idea this was happening?
ML: No.
WSJ: They have made these very serious allegations against Autonomy — they have not specified an individual. What is your response to the allegations?
ML: They are completely and utterly wrong and we reject them completely.
WSJ: Do you understand how the allegations have come about?
ML: Not really because we have not been given any details.
WSJ: You have seen the allegations about irregular accounting practices , price inflation, presumably everything was cleared by auditors, you were a FTSE 100 company?
ML: We were audited on a quarterly basis. It was Deloitte who knew the company well. We had 10 years as a listed company; during that time Deloitte would have had their work reviewed by the various boards. Of course H-P did what its senior management called "a meticulous due diligence" involving hundreds of people that was highly intense, involving KPMG Barclays well. They threw everything at it.
And of course they have run the company for four quarters, they have been doing the books.
The figures are just mad. You are talking about handing them an asset worth $12 billion and they are saying $9 billion of that they are taking off. That would be such an obvious massive thing with 300 people and all these firms doing due diligence, how could you possibly not spot it?
WSJ: Do you have any concept how they arrive at these figures, or where this is coming from?
ML: No. The only concept I have of it is that it does seem to be coincident with them releasing the worst set of results in their 70-year company history.
I think what has happened here is that they have got themselves in a mess.
They did the acquisition of EDS, they had to write that one down. They had to write Palm down. When Autonomy was acquired it was done by a CEO who wanted to get rid of various divisions of that business and lead with software.
He was ousted in an internal coup d'etat. From that point Autonomy was at odds with the divisions that were in power.
There was a series of mismanagement steps. They lost hundreds of the talented people at Autonomy. They whole management team basically went out of the door. Sadly they are left with the results of having destroyed all that value.
Now they are trying to cover it up with this big write off.
WSJ: When you left H-P…
ML: I left in the end of April.
WSJ: When you left H-P, was the company in a good position?
ML: No it wasn't. What had happened was in the previous few months they had lost many of the good staff of the company because of various things they did. I was one of the last of the main management to leave.
The company was not in a good state, but I tried very hard under the various rules that they brought in to try to keep that company going for them.
WSJ: How do you feel about this? This is a company that you created. You were there from its birth. To have these allegations of an extremely serious nature made against the company and the management team, how does that make you feel?
ML: We completely reject the allegations. As soon as there is some flesh put on the bones we will show they are not true. What does make the management team deeply sad is that it is a business we spent 10 years building. It was a world leader. It was destroyed in less than a year by the petty infighting at H-P.
I guess you have to look at it this way. A company is about the people.
Obviously there are great people, many of them are at H-P, and I hope they go on to great things.
WSJ: Have you been contacted by anyone? H-P has talked about contacting the SFO [Serious Fraud Office]. Have they, or anyone else, been in touch?
ML: No. We have not been contacted by anyone. The only thing we have heard is their press release.
WSJ: It is all somewhat bewildering.
ML: I can't understand how you can write down $9 billion of value and say somehow this was all caused by something you didn't notice when you did due diligence with 300 people. It would be kind of a big elephant to have missed.
I think it calls into question the credibility of today's announcement.
You are being asked to believe that an elephant that big was missed by all these firms and 300 people and it only came to light a year later.

It looks like I will have to remove and replace the speedometer on my 04 R1150RT. I am getting a high pitched whine with needle fluctuations. If I take the bike apart I will most likely go for a permanent fix instead of the temporary repair some folks have suggested. It's too much work to take the bike apart and have to do it again in the near future if the temp repair doesn't work out.
I removed the fairing side panels, windshield, black plastic fairing piece under the windshield and loosened the dashboard panel enough to see the area behind it without disconnecting the RID, headlight adjustment knob and fog light switch.
I still can't figure out how to get the speedometer out without taking the front part of the fairing off the bike. Can anyone tell me if I need to remove the rest of the front fairing or are the bolts I see on each corner of the instrument area all that is holding the speedometer and rpm.
Thanks for the help.

I need to create a resizing toolbar in WIN32 using DEV Studio.
I can't use MFC or C++.
I can get a button only toolbar but need lots of other types of control. Yes I have seen the doc in the help for combos in toolbars but was wondering, before I start writing a libary to do the resizing if anyone had done this before and had some code.
Anyone have any code for creating a floating toolbar using common controls?

It's a very Oregonian thing, you see. It's the World Naked Bike Ride, in which 5,000+ residents show up downtown, take off all their clothes, and pedal about. They also visit museums. I've been to a surprising number of Oregon events where people just shuck off everything, completely unselfconsciously. Damned hippies. Gotta love 'em.
There are photos at the link, but mostly tasteful — at most you'll be flashed with a few bare butts.

Bass guitar
The bass guitar is a stringed instrument played primarily with the fingers or thumb, by plucking, slapping, popping, tapping, thumping, or picking with a plectrum, often known as a pick.
The bass guitar is similar in appearance and construction to an electric guitar, but with a longer neck and scale length, and four to six strings or courses. The four-string bass—by far the most common—is usually tuned the same as the double bass,which corresponds to pitches one octave lower than the four lowest pitched strings of a guitar (E, A, D, and G). The bass guitar is a transposing instrument, as it is notated in bass clef an octave higher than it sounds (as is the double bass) to avoid excessive ledger lines. Like the electric guitar, the bass guitar is plugged into an amplifier and speaker for live performances.

Toronto receives
Rudy gay
Josh Selby
Phoenix receives
Andrea Bargnani
Sacramento 2014 2nd round pick via Toronto
Toronto 2013 2nd round pick
Memphis receives
Jose Calderon
Michael Beasley
Alan Anderson
Minnesota 1st round pick via Phoenix
Why Toronto?
Rudy gay. That is all.
Why Phoenix?
Beasley isn't the player he was expected to be when they signed him, so they drop his massive contract. They get Bargnani to back up scola and start when scola retires or leaves as a free agent.
Why Memphis?
Key here is cap space. They're deep into the tax and Memphis isn't exactly a big market. They get 10 million dollars off the books from Calderon at the end of the season and get rid of Rudy gays large contract. Hopefully with a change of scenery michael Beasley can perform better or not. First rounder evens it out. Anderson has been playing great and has shown he can 100% be a serviceable backup
Toronto lineup
Kyle Lowry/John Lucas/Josh Selby
Demar Derozan/Terrence Ross
Rudy Gay/Landry Fields/Mickael Pietrus
Ed Davis/Quincy Acy
Jonas Valanciunas/Amir Johnson/Aaron Gray

Gordon scratched with tightness in back
SURPRISE, Ariz. -- Alex Gordon was scratched from the Royals' lineup because of a back problem about four hours before Monday's game against the Diamondbacks.
"A little back stiffness, it's right where your rear end meets your back. Went in and took some swings, and it was still tight," manager Ned Yost said. "This is way too early to be pushing anything, so we made a lineup change."
Xavier Nady replaced Gordon in left field, and center fielder Jarrod Dyson moved up in the lineup and took Gordon's leadoff spot.
Any concern over Gordon's condition?
"Zero concern," Yost said, then amended that: "One percent concern."
Gordon had played in two of the first three Cactus League games and was 2-for-4. He was scheduled to play Tuesday against Cleveland, but now that is uncertain.
Meanwhile, pitcher Francisley Bueno, who took a sharp ground ball off his left wrist in Saturday's game, had nothing more than a bruise.
"He's bueno, he's fine," Yost said.
Ramirez, Moore tally big homers in win
SURPRISE, Ariz. -- Two Royals catchers boomed lengthy home runs in Monday's 16-4 romp over the Arizona Diamondbacks. Too bad nobody had a tape measure.
Max Ramirez pounded a grand slam in the fifth inning, a drive that soared high over the center-field berm at Surprise Stadium. Adam Moore followed Ramirez to the plate, and Moore's ball landed on top the left-field berm and rolled toward the outer fence.
"I think that ball hit a car in the parking lot, didn't it?" the Royals' Billy Butler said of Moore's homer. "It literally might be one of the furthest balls I've ever seen hit."
The trajectory wasn't quite that far, but it was a blast, Moore's second homer in four games.
"Actually, when I hit it, I knew it was gone, but I didn't pay attention to where it landed," Moore said. "I just got a good pitch inner-half, fastball, 2-1 count and put a good swing on it, and the rest took care of itself."
Neither player was catching Monday. Ramirez took over at first base, and Moore inherited Butler's designated hitter slot. Both are non-roster players currently slotted behind catchers Brett Hayes and George Kottaras, considered the top two candidates to be Salvador Perez's backup.
Last season for Triple-A Omaha, Ramirez hit 17 homers with 77 RBIs and a .300 average, mostly as a DH. Moore split his injury-marred season between Triple-A Tacoma, a Mariners affiliate, and Omaha, and he had six homers in 59 games. Called up by Kansas City in September, he homered in his first at-bat.
Both Ramirez and Moore have seen limited Major League action at 28. They're long shots to make the KC roster.
"It's just four games, but you've got to make them all count," Moore said. "I feel good at the plate, getting pitches I can hit and seeing balls up in the zone. I know I've got to keep this going the rest of the spring."
Moscoso happy to be in KC
SURPRISE, Ariz. -- Pitching candidate Guillermo Moscoso came close to being part of Royals' history in 2011 while with the Oakland A's.
On Sept. 7, 2011, Moscoso was just four outs away from becoming just the third pitcher in history to no-hit the Royals. The only others were the Angels' Nolan Ryan in 1973 and the Red Sox's Jon Lester in 2008.
"I was working the strike zone very well, all four of my pitches were great," Moscoso said. "I give a lot of credit to [Kurt] Suzuki; he was the catcher that day, and when you have veterans catching, you can have a lot of success."
With two outs in the eighth, Royals catcher Salvador Perez lined a 2-2 pitch into right field for the first hit.
"I think he got called up a month before. But he's a great hitter, and you have to take your hat off to that guy," Moscoso said.
Moscoso went 8 2/3 innings that day at Oakland and gave up two hits in the A's 7-0 victory. That was the same afternoon that Royals right fielder Jeff Francoeur created a stir by throwing out A's rookie Michael Taylor at first base after fielding his line drive.
Moscoso was 8-10 with a 3.38 ERA for the A's that season but was traded to Colorado in 2012. He struggled with the Rockies (3-2, 6.12 ERA in 23 games) and was claimed off waivers by the Royals last Nov. 2. Moscoso wasn't too upset about leaving Colorado.
"It was tough," Moscoso said. "That park is so different because of the altitude. I'm a breaking ball guy, and breaking balls in that park don't break very much. You've got to get used to it."
Moscoso has pitched both as a starter and reliever, and he's willing to fill either role for the Royals. He started Saturday against the Rangers and pitched two scoreless innings in a 4-2 Royals win.
"I'm trying to do what I did in winter ball, working on the two-seam from last year with Colorado. I've had a lot of success with that pitch," Moscoso said.
Moscoso pitched this winter in Venezuela, going 2-2 with a 4.08 ERA in 18 games (seven starts) for Leones del Caracas.
