The refund will be made to your credit card which was used to make the initial payment. Outside the indicated period for refund, if the runner decides not to participate, there will be no refund. The runner may receive the commemorative gifts, if they pick them up in the period and times established by the race organization. In no case will these gifts be sent to anyone be mail.
It is not permitted to change ownership of the registration nor reserve a race number for future editions. The only rules that apply are explained above.
Both races, the Gran Trail de Peñalara (GTP) and the Trail de Peñalara 60K (TP60) take place in the Sierra de Guadarrama National Park and other areas considered to be of important natural value, where the number of runners is limited. It is impossible to accommodate all the the pre-registrations received. Due to this, as in 2016, there will be a lottery before the final registration.
Participation in the Lottery
In order to participate in the lottery, it is necessary to pre-register by filling out the form available on the official website, www.grantrailgtp.com, under the tab "Preinscripción" (pre-registration).
The price for the pre-registration is 15 €, to be discounted from the total amount of the registration fee, in the event you get a place in the lottery. If you do not get a place, the amount will be returned. If you receive a place and decide not to register, for any reason, the 10€ will not be returned.
Pre-registration is open to all runners who are 21 years or older on GTP and 18 years older on TP60, by the day of the event.
For the GTP, it is necessary to verify that you have completed an event, between November 15, 2015 and November 15, 2017, from the list of classifying events, see the list at www.grantrailgtp.com.
The organization will verify the classifying race indicated on the pre-registrations for the GTP, and has the right to cancel the pre-registration without a refund if they find that the information provided is false.
It is possible to pre-register a group (minimum of two people, maximum of four). One person from the group should fill out the form on the website under the tab "Preinscripción grupo" (group pre-registration). The form must be completed with the information requested for all the members of the group. One number for the lottery will be assigned for the group. In the lottery, the probability of being selected is the same as for the both individuals and groups. The only advantage of the group pre-registration is that all the members of the group obtain the same result of the lottery.
In the case of mixed groups, the women will lose the opportunity to be included in the preferred quota established for individual women and will have the same luck as the rest of the group. This grouping is only valid for the pre-registration process. En the races, GTP and TP60, there are no group or team categories.
Only one pre-registration may be made, valid for participation in the lottery for the GTP or the TP60, you may not pre-register for both.
Number of places in the lottery
GTP: 415 men / 35 women.
TP60: 360 men/ 60 women.
The number of places is calculated according to the statistics from previous editions, in order to guarantee female participation, compensating the unequal presence in the lottery.
There will be no waiting list. These numbers contemplate an overbooking based on the statistics of drop outs from data from previous years, which guarantees that the number of runners will not surpass the number permitted by the National Park under any circumstances.
The organization reserves a limited number of places, not by lottery, for the following cases:
- A) Members of RSEA Peñalara, and other clubs that collaborate with RSEA Peñalara
- B) Invitations by the Race Organization
- C) Runners (men) under 14 hours in the GTP and under 6:30 hours in the TP 60
- D) Runners (women) under 17 hours in GTP and under 8 in the TP60
- E) Elite male runners with 750 points or more in the ITRA ranking
- F) Elite female runners with 650 points or more in the ITRA ranking
- G) Runners who have finished the 7 editions of the GTP or the 5 editions of the TP60
Interested runners that meet the above criteria in C,D,E,F or G should send an email to email@example.com, indicating your complete name and contact information.
These reservations do not affect the lottery quotas.
Lottery procedure
Each pre-registration will be assigned a correlative number sent out in the confirmation email. Please make sure you provide a current and correct email address in order to receive notifications from the race organization.
If the number of pre-registrations is higher than the number of places available in the races, there will be a lottery. If the total number of places available is not covered, all the pre-registrations will be able to register. You will be notified to fill out the registration form and pay the rest of the amount due in the time period indicated by the race organization.
The lottery will be public and will take place at RSEA Peñalara, C/ Aduana, 17 - Bajo, Madrid, on December 4, 2017 at 7:30 pm.
A number will be chosen randomly (using a computer application) among all of the assigned numbers. Numbers will be chosen one at a time until the maximum number of places is covered, for the male pre-registrations and female pre-registrations alike.
If there are places available after the lottery and the formal registration period, the lottery process will be repeated with the remaining numbers until the places are covered.
For those people pre-registered for the 2016 edition of the same race, that did not get a place, an extra number will be assigned to you, if you correctly check the box on the pre-registration form as indicated. If you do not receive a place two years in a row, you will automatically receive a place in the same race of the 2018 edition with the same registration conditions at that moment.
It is prohibited to change numbers between the two different races, GTP and TP60.
Those people who are pre-registered (for the first time) and do not receive a place in the 2018 edition, will be eligible for an extra number for the 2019 edition, as long as they meet the pre-registration requirements at that time.
The results of the lottery are valid for the 2018 edition ONLY. It is not permitted to use a place in the 2018 edition for future editions, even if you have officially registered and then are unable to participate in the race or in the case you do not finish. No registrations are saved from one year to the next.
Pre-registrations that do not receive a place in the lottery will be refunded the 15€ deposit once the official registration period is completed and all of the available places are filled (see point 4.5). The refund will be made to the credit card provided in the pre-registration.
Once the lottery results have been communicated, the period to register will be from December 11, 2017 at midnight until December 20, 2017 at midnight. It is mandatory to pay the rest of the registration fee: 90 € GTP / 63 € TP60.
If you do not complete the final registration in the above mentioned period, you will lose your right to register. The deposit will not be returned and you will not receive the extra number advantage available in the lottery next year.
To finalize your registration, you must sign and return the document regarding responsibility (GTP and TP60).
For the GTP, it will also be necessary to present a medical certificate indicating that you are physically capable to participate in this type of event. The race organization will provide an official certificate to be filled out, or you should provide something similar. It should be signed by a physician within the last 6 months before the event. The race organization recommends that you get the medical certificate along with a stress test in order to make sure you are in good health.
The responsibility document and the medical certificate should be sent as an attached file to email@example.com, providing your DNI, NIE or passport number, and your first and last names apellidos, before May 1, 2018. If the race organization does not receive these documents by the date indicated (no exceptions made) your registration will be cancelled automatically, and you will not be refunded the registration fee.
By registering, you agree that you are aware of and accept the Rules and Regulations of the race, and that you give permission to the organization to use your image and data according to the Organic Law on the Protection of Data of Spain.

November 24, 2013 by Eli Fisher
For students in in Kurt Borchardt's Digital Electronics classes, "the dog ate my homework" is no longer a common excuse. Instead, they're left with "I left my notes at home."
Borchardt is one of a handful of high school teachers across the nation, including Saratoga Springs, that have implemented a teaching method known as flipped instruction in their classrooms.
"Teachers record video lessons, which students watch on their smartphones, home computers or at lunch in the school's tech lab. In class, they do projects, exercises or lab experiments in small groups while the teacher circulates," wrote Tina Rosenberg in The New York Times, describing this method.
"It started out as me making videos, and I would do direct instruction. And then if [a student] gets hung up, I would have a video for them to watch at home," said Borchardt. He was happy with the results: "I saw the middle-level achievers increase their grades, because they can watch the video at their own pace; they can take high quality notes, where in the past they couldn't." He also said that while doing conventional homework assignments at the last minute (in math classes, for example) can be difficult, he now actually encourages students to watch videos the night before class, not earlier. Then, class time can be spent mastering skills learned through the video lectures, with the teacher there to help. With the new method, he added, "student engagement is much higher…they're excited to be there. We had two kids sign up for Digital Electronics after the school year began because they heard it was cool. I've never had that happen." Another advantage of flipped instruction is that students can pause the video and go back when they don't understand something.
Borchardt said that at least five other teachers, including David Shanks and Jonathan Warner in the Science Department as well as Amanda Wismont in the Foreign Language Department and Kevin Crotty in the Social Studies Department have all begun at least some use of flipped instruction. Jered Marcantonio, the other Digital Electronics teacher, uses the method alongside Borchardt, who has taught other teachers how to use it in professional development classes. Borchardt acknowledged that discourse and debate in humanities classes can't be replaced by a video, but there are still "some areas where you can make it work."
"English," he said, "is the first flipped class. 'Here's a book. Go home and read it. Come in and we're going to talk about chapters 1 and 2.' "
Several teachers were worried about students without computer and internet access. "Unfortunately, there will always be students who are not able to complete their homework assignments. As flipped instruction also requires access to technology, we are further hindering students who may already have an economic disadvantage," said English teacher Amy Totino. Another English teacher, Jeanmarie Gebhard, had similar concerns. "I teach students who do not have computer access or internet service at home. This would make it difficult for them to complete the lesson," said Gebhard. Science teacher Theresa Newkirk echoed these sentiments.
But Borchardt said access to technology has never been as issue in his classes. "Most kids have phones…go to an inner city, and you're going to see all these people that are clearly poor, but they somehow have smartphones…it's kind of an interesting situation," he said. Borchardt added that the school district would accommodate students that had issues with computer access for the videos. He also said that he found that students not motivated by grades were motivated by the peer pressure that came with "sticking out like a sore thumb" when they had not watched a video. This is what he considers to be the reason that some students don't like flipped instruction: "it holds them accountable for their action or inaction."
The Lightning Rod recently conducted an online survey emailed to 147 teachers at SSHS, to which there were 13 responses. When asked to state there opinion of flipped instruction on a scale of 1 to 5, with 1 being very negative and 5 being very positive, the average response was 3.69, indicating teachers had a neutral to somewhat positive view of flipped instruction. All respondents said they had considered using this method, but only three said they used it currently. When asked if they thought flipped instruction was relevant to classes in their department, most teachers were fairly neutral across the core academic departments.
Borchardt said that teacher's reactions to the method he had seen were not all positive either. "There are teachers that think they know it, but they don't…I hear reasons why they can't do it, but I never hear them say, 'here's how I can do it'…you can make it work for your situation…This is a huge change," he added. "Every change doesn't happen overnight."

The Best In Live Stand-Up Comedy
@ The Glee Club Cardiff, Cardiff
Featuring: Ian Cognito, Dan Nightingale, Jimmy McGhie, Jonny Awsum
This event has been and gone!
Catch the next one:
Check out the info below for future tour dates, and track them to receive alerts when they tour near you
The Best In Live Stand-Up Comedy: Ian Cognito, Dan Nightingale, Jimmy McGhie, Jonny Awsum
Please note that the artists appearing may be subject to change.
Ian Cognito
Ian Cognito has been compared to Lenny Bruce, Bill Hicks and Gerry Sadowitz. Winner of the Time Out Stand Up Comedy Performance Award 1999. He has been excluded from many venues because of his onstage antics.
Outspoken, opinionated and totally clued up, Ian Cognito's take on the world will have you convinced and convulsed (with laughter) as he spits his darkly humorous vitriol over an unsuspecting crowd.
'If you want to know what's wrong with New Britain, Ian Cognito's going to tell you. And if you don't, you'd better keep your mouth shut. Just stunning' (The Guardian)
'This electrifying, terrifying and ultimately vulnerable performer warmed a cold Glasgow audience to boiling point. Stand up should always be like this' (The List)
'First time I saw Cognito I was blown away. I was blown away the second time too. Third time I thought I could do that' (Reginald D Hunter).
Ian Cognito tour dates
Dan Nightingale
Dan is a huge star of the national circuit and is a resident compere and act at Manchester's Famous Frog and Bucket Comedy Club. He is an act not to be missed!
'Nightingale can make just about anything funny. He's lightning-quick' (Time Out)
'A superb compilation of brilliantly crafted stories written by someone who unquestionably has a keen and instinctive eye for comedy. Nightingale's buoyant energy makes for entertaining stand up' (Broadway Baby)
'Dan's laughing, we're laughing... funny as hell' (Leicester Mercury)
'A witty and incredibly well timed comic' (Arts Award Voice)
'It is his powers of observation that make him so entertaining. Outrageously funny' (KeepingupwithNZ)
'Magnetic, entertaining and wonderfully funny' (Three Weeks).
Dan Nightingale tour dates
Jimmy McGhie
Jimmy McGhie is a highly regarded young stand-up and comic performer, appearing on the UK and international comedy circuit to great acclaim. A finalist in
the BBC New Talent competition, Jimmy is one of Britain's hottest comedy talents.
Having already built up a solid fan base, his 2009 and 2010 Edinburgh solo shows were complete sell-outs. Having appeared on Russell Howard's Good News, Jimmy's comedy stock is set to go into the stratosphere.
'A performance that demonstrates he meets all the requirements needed to
become a TV star' (British Comedy Guide)
'There are few comics I can think of who have the sheer star quality of Jimmy McGhie. He is the perfect little comedy package' (The Scotsman)
'Hilarious and lovable... A fantastic storyteller' (Three Weeks).
Jimmy McGhie tour dates
Jonny Awsum
A dab hand at singing, acting, presenting, stand-up comedy and playing guitar, Jonny Awsum has a crowd-pleasing set that's seen him smash thousands of gigs all around the world.
Jonny's musings include everything from the white lies he tells his girlfriend to his new home town of Croydon and the memory of his first love at eight years old. He has presented for Sky Sports, been warm up act for Big Brother and Loose Women and also starred in several adverts including Cravendale, The Post Office, Experian and even Puntigamer beer in Austria.
'With his guitar and musical parodies he amuses his audiences charming them with his warm and friendly persona, his style of audience participation is second to none' (Funhouse Comedy).

Tsum tsum has a Valentine's Event!
It started around February 5th– make sure you update your Tsum tsum app to play!
You can participate by accessing the Bingo cards on the lower left corner of the screen.
I just started to play today! And it took me 2 rounds to get the hang of it!
So what is it?
It's similar to Bingo. There are 3 chocolate boxes like Bingo cards. You need to fill them up with chocolates to get prizes!
To get chocolates, first you play with a chocolate heart. With a chocolate heart, a chocolate capsule will appear while you play.
The chocolate capsule doesn't do anything in the game. You can't connect to it or pop it like a bubble.
You're supposed to capture the capsule. To capture it, you have to pop bubbles against it OR use skills on it 3 times.
This can be tricky!
I've only used Marie and popped bubbles against it. I have not used skills 3 times on it (I'm not sure which Tsum Tsum would be best for that).
Once you have done that, the game will pause and show that you collected the capsule.
At the end of the round, the capsule will open and give you a gift.
The gift could be a chocolate, which goes in your box and helps you fill the box for a special prize.
Or the gift could be an item or coins.
I prefer chocolates though! I want to fill all 3 boxes!
Here's my first chocolate! How exciting!
This is where I am so far:
Can't wait to fill my box full of cute chocolates! Maybe my Tsum tsums can eat them!
If you have any questions, I'll try to help. Feel free to comment below and share the fun!

Look at me going Microsoft crazy and writing about two of their free applications in under a month! What's going on here?
Well to be honest they do have some awesome tools and Rich Copy happens to be one of them. For years I was using xcopy and recently when I had issues copying massive amounts of data I found XXCOPY that I wrote about on AskTheAdmin.
Now it comes out that Microsoft engineers have been using this program for years internally to transfer large amounts of data quickly and efficiently.
Word on the street is that it was going to be released for public consumption after it was leaked onto several popular file sharing sites. Then we read here that RichCopy was actually being released on Sunday!
You can grab the application from here.
Let's get down to the nitty gritty – why would you want to run RichCopy?
There are several reasons why you may want to use RichCopy for file copying operations on your Windows computer. You can copy multiple files from multiple locations and have them all end up in the same folder. But the best part about RichCopy is that it is multi-threaded. Unlike built in Windows commands RichCopy can copy multiple files at the same time – this is what speeds up your copying actions.
Now you can only imagine how useful this can be when you are copying tens of thousands of files right? This is what cuts my file operations times into a hundredth of what it should have been when it was copying these files one at a time.
How about pause and resume features that work in real time? If you screw something up or you lose your connection you no longer have to start over at the beginning!
After it is installed fire it up and we will go over its functionality.
To start we will click on the Source button to select our source(s). Yes you can select more than one source!
I selected two directories and then I clicked on OK at the bottom of the browse window. I chose my destination path (here I selected the root of my D:\ drive)
You can click on the Option button to view and edit your options – now this is where the applications power really shines through.
You can select all sorts of different options for your file copy operation such as copy only if the security settings are the same in both places, copy only if the file exists or doesn't exist, time stamp comparison as well as file size and attributes.
I left all my options at the default settings for this example and I clicked OK at the bottom. I then hit the Green play button which will start my file copying operation.
My file copy started at 11:50 am and it did it's thing and then BAM! It was done. It took less than 1 minute. Are you curious as to how much data I copied?
Let's take a look!
I copied 203 image files for a grand total of 2.48 GB and I was able to copy it to a different hard drive on my local machine in about 50 seconds.
I copied the same data to a network folder also under 1 minute! That's right it took almost the same time to copy to a local drive as it did to my network drive connected via 10/100 Ethernet NIC.
Operations like this used to take at least 6 minutes with a normal copy operation and 3-6 minutes with some other tools. This is awesome!
What do you use for large file transfers? Share it with other Make Use Of readers in the comments!.

I have used Robocopy to transfer files, but the GUI is still missing from it! Its not good for a newbie. At times it lags too when copying huge files. To solve this problem I have been using GS RIchcopy 360. Its a powerful tool which solved most of my problems related to file copying. It also solved open files problem. Its a suggestion from my side to use GS Richcopy 360 instead.
Looks like a copy of Roadkil's Unstoppable Copier! Microsoft rips off the little guys again!!
Without ACL info, this tool is useless in a professional network. Do not waste your time. Robocopy only.
same here, ACL is not copied over, but at least if you preset your perms on the destination (make it identical to source) you dont really have to worry about it.
Works great for handling large qty of files. I cant seem to get the security piece to work. Tried running with variations of "/ca /csa /ca /csd" and "/ca /csa /csd" but the ACL info does not copy over. Also the /cnf doesnt work as the help file indicates. if you use the /cnf param. it will not copy empty folders. Help file says this is for "Turn off popup system error dialog"
Anyone have a fix for ACL info? Permissions are key for me.
2.48Gb in 50 sec = 50MB/s
You can get that over a 10/100 ethernet?
I am more interested in the NIC now.
As you might be able to calculate 100Mbps ethernet can only transfer at most 12MB/s that's 600MBs in 50 sec - hardware limitation. Are you saying Richcopy can transfer faster than that? If not you have to put this in a better way.

I've been using TeraCopy from Code Sector (www.codesector.com). It works great in Vista Ultimate x32 and x64, but I had some trouble with it on a customer's Vista Home Premium machine. Nice thing about TeraCopy is that it replaces the native Windows copy and paste, so I can simply Ctrl + C (or X) and Ctrl + V as usual. It also goes into the right-click context menu for when I drag files.
Im in the market to find a good replacement for the built in copy/paste functions, because it would be nice to be-able to pause mainly. and also what's been happening a lot is when I make a change to a file (or folder), save, then close... if I it try to move via cut/copy -> paste the copy screen just freezes and i have to close it and do it again. so that's pretty annoying enough.
dont think I like this though because I need a replacement and this is far too big, slow, clunky... example if I right click copy i want to just paste right away not go through menus and screens and options...
Tried it out, works really well, thanx Karl!
I have had the best success with a program called FastCopy. I have it set up so I just plug in my external hard drive, have it autorun a .bat file that runs a command line process that FastCopy handles and it runs fast and in the background. Might have to try this one out to see how it compares. Thanks.
I have not tried it with a second disk but for disk to same disk. I'll hoping it's a lot better for DISK to DISK...
Same Disk Copy Stats:
5:09 - 604MB - RichCopy
6:34 - 604MB - TeraCopy
I use TotalCopy and really happy with it.
Will try this :)
Too sweet, just what I've been looking for! Thanks Karl!

Army team to begin Libyan training prep
A small team of soldiers will go into Libya in the coming weeks to begin preparations for a larger U.S. mission to train Libyan troops in Bulgaria, a senior defense official told Fox News.
The soldiers going on the trip are planners and will not be doing the training themselves, the official said.
Fewer than a dozen soldiers will go to Tripoli, but that number could grow as the group begins selecting the Libyan troops who will receive U.S. training, an official told The Associated Press. About 500 soldiers from the 1st Infantry Division will train 5,000 to 8,000 Libyan forces in basic combat skills as part of a larger international effort to improve security in the North African nation.
The training was announced late last year, but sending a team into Libya was not. The team initially will be working with the Libyans to determine the scope and details of the training.
The official said that as time goes on and the effort to select the Libyan troops expands, some additional soldiers could go to Tripoli to provide security for the team.
Officials are waiting on final approval for the team to go to Tripoli. And the training will not begin until Libya approves the funding needed for the mission. That approval could happen sometime next month.
There are ongoing concerns about the rise of a number of militias in Libya, as the nation's weak government struggles to take control in the aftermath of the ouster and death of Muammar Qaddafi in 2011.
Fox News' Justin Fishel and The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Syracuse Salt Potatoes
A little salt sure makes everything taste better. But in Salt City (Syracuse, N. Y.) the only way to cook potatoes is with a lot of salt.
Why This Recipe Works
Some Syracuse Salt Potatoes recipes call for three cups of salt, but we found that to be excessive. We reduced the salt content dramatically to create a potato recipe with a well-seasoned (not too salty) crust and ultra-creamy interior. Both kosher and non-iodized salt worked equally well. And small white or red potatoes, left whole and unpeeled, worked best in our Syracuse Salt Potatoes—if cut or peeled, the potatoes absorb too much salt. Adding chives and black pepper brought this dish to a new level.

I completely agree.
PLEASE INTEL do something for Linux users. I can't believe I just purchased SOny VAIO P series and will be STUCK with XP.
We WANT GMA 500 support too!!
2. Re: Very poor Linux support for GMA500mcm Dec 9, 2009 5:39 AM (in response to voltagex)
Is it really necessary to update the driver of g500 for Linux, the performance is very terrible, making the system inoperable. The hardware g500 can do much better if the drivers are improved. Please make drivers seriously.
3. Re: Very poor Linux support for GMA500sgrienen Dec 18, 2009 7:52 AM (in response to voltagex)
I bought a MSI Wind U110 Eco which runs Atom Z530, the delivered WinXP is updating till death, and when I want to install Linux, I can install Ubuntu, using the PPA driver (http://gma500re.altervista.org/scripts/poulsbo_ppa.sh), but then comes the next Ubuntu update, and my netbook is dead again... Please support YOUR OWN products, give the documenation material to the one that can write drivers ! Make it OPEN !
4. Re: Very poor Linux support for GMA500matyi_ Dec 28, 2009 3:58 AM (in response to voltagex)
I have the same problem...but now I know, that i will never buy chipsets created by intel...
5. Re: Very poor Linux support for GMA500itspecific Jan 16, 2010 11:45 PM (in response to matyi_)
How many of us are going to have to complain before we get any kind of official responce. The need is there, please provide us with the means Intel! Read the blogs, this is hurting your image tremendously!
6. Re: Very poor Linux support for GMA500paulaji99 Feb 15, 2010 12:16 PM (in response to voltagex)
INTEL, is there is any update on this
7. Re: Very poor Linux support for GMA500Robert_U Feb 24, 2010 3:30 PM (in response to voltagex)
Go to your distribution for Linux drivers. Way too many versions of Linux for Intel to write drivers for. Thats why they are supported at the distro level.
Also, see: http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/sb/CS-010512.htm
Lets keep only one thread for this issue. http://communities.intel.com/message/85012#85012
8. Re: Very poor Linux support for GMA500akabigbro Mar 21, 2010 4:53 PM (in response to Robert_U)
That's funny, I only know of one version of Linux... http://kernel.org
This is what is called a white wash.
9. Re: Very poor Linux support for GMA500acoto Mar 23, 2010 5:01 PM (in response to Robert_U)
Hello Robert,
I bought a GMA500 enabled netbook and I must tell the experience as user is dissapointing.
I tried several linux distributions: Mandriva, Fedora 12, Ubuntu UNR, Zenwalk, even Arch; Just searching for one that works well with the GMA500 chipset.
As you can se these are not just another extrange Linux disrto. They are main distributions, even in distrowatch.com 4 of them are in the top10 distros
At the end it becomes very frustrating to discover that no one works well yet.
May be the closest one to success is Ubuntu UNR. but even wit that there are several glitches. Having to maually re-install drivers after a kernel update is a pain. Not good at all for non tech users.
I has been an intel fan for years, and my general experience with dozens of machines has been very positive.
But this time, I think Intel took a wrong path. It is really hurting users who loves Linux on intel hardware.
Please intel, do something.
10. Re: Very poor Linux support for GMA500
With fedora 14 on my netbook, I installed poulsbo drivers and I have native resolution, but awful performance. Too bad Intel never released proper linux drivers for their chip. Next time I buy a PC, I'll be more careful.
11. Re: Very poor Linux support for GMA500
Right now the best linux distro for gma500 is ubuntu 10.10 after just a little bit of search like "ubuntu intel gma500" in google you can install these drivers..
works great for me i can see HD movies and play basic 3d games (linux) without problem only full screen flash video doesn't work and compiz for me..
internet pages render quite well,
hope also to see more support for this chipset for linux and wondows
12. Re: Very poor Linux support for GMA500
you **** intel. atleast admit your **** ups. "go to your distro" ???? shut up.
13. Re: Very poor Linux support for GMA500
What a load of ********. Too many distros? How about you just support the ONE most used distro, Ubuntu? With all of its variants (and millions of users), you would be supporting tens if not hundreds of distros by doing just that. Stop telling everyone to go to their distro, when you know damn well we can not reverse engeneer this without your help (or the makers of this garbage chipset), and only you are in the position to make that happen. How are you going to build your own Linux distro, but leave us in the dark? Consider yourself on notice, because if the Linux community turns its back on you, the way you have on us, most of your future plans involving Meego, and anything Linux related are dead. You need us. You need our community. Get your **** together Intel.
14. Re: Very poor Linux support for GMA500omen May 2, 2011 1:17 PM (in response to voltagex)
nobody listen you, nearly no support in windows and practically no support in linux. I have gma500 and i know that this driver is junk.

Cardinal Bagnasco encourages conscientious objection to RU-486
Rome, Italy, Aug 4, 2009 / 10:46 am (CNA).- The president of the Italian Bishops' Conference, Cardinal Angelo Bagnasco, encouraged doctors who defend life and oppose abortion to exercise their right to conscientious objection in response to the decision by health care officials to allow the sale of the abortion drug RU-486.
In an interview with the Italian daily Avvenire, Cardinal Bagnasco warned the decision encourages Italians to view "abortion as a contraceptive, something that law 194 absolutely forbids," and he expressed his "sadness, bitterness and care" over the position of health care officials, which he called a "crack in our society."
Where there is no respect for human life, the cardinal went on, "from conception in its fragility and later during its course, society is less human. That the right of the strongest thus prevails is bitter." Behind this society, he added, "is an individualistic culture, hidden under respect for the freedom of women," who "in reality experience a tragedy, live in suffering and worry; when a truly human culture ought to take care of them."
"A courageous, clear voice arguing at all levels" needs to be raised, the cardinal stated, saying that Catholics must urgently work to defend the lives of the unborn and of women, especially in the area of politics and law.
In response to the legalization of RU-486, Cardinal Bagnasco also encouraged "the spread of conscientious objection based on profound convictions" as a witness to public opinion.
According to recently released data, 70.5% of Italian doctors exercise their right to conscientiously object to abortion. This fact, according to the cardinal, "should make us reflect about the sensitivity that is still strongly rooted in the hearts of Italians."

Look at local politics here this past week on Wednesday. The Erie county Democrats endorsed Betty Jean grant minority leader of the Erie county legislature to take on incumbent state senator Tim Kennedy. Both candidates are out there circulating petitions now there will be a primary. And that will be a rematch of the last time the C was up Kennedy basically won that by about a hundred votes certainly a small margin. -- -- is here now Jeremy is the chairman of the Erie county Democratic Party thanks for joining us sir. I'm great is it unusual to deny the endorsement to an incumbent. And go why did the party do that in this case. Well it's certainly hasn't been done in awhile. I -- And it was. Overwhelming for our legislator grant to get the endorsement -- the I think you'll 53 -- -- -- and I think that spew a lot of reasons. But she overwhelmingly did did -- What issues did they site. I think that what. Our committee is tired of I think the voters are tired of -- people saying one thing doing another flip flopping on issues. On all of what you will you all think whatever it is -- when Betty Jean says something she knew that and chief follows through that -- you don't have to wonder where she's going to be on the issues and I think those are the biggest thing. Senator Kennedy is seen as more of a moderate to moderate to get the endorsement. No I don't I I think it's exactly what I just said Dave I think that he has said things and not followed through on them for a long time. And I and I think that our party leaders are just tired of I think they believe Betty Jean grant carried the values. More steadily you know and then Tim Kennedy has in the past and I think. They wanna change. When you say the values you mean party values right. Yeah I I think you know they've seen Betty Jeanne stand strong for women's issues stand strong for education. And strong for health care issues over the years without waiver and I don't think you'd -- -- -- -- Some of the criticism and I know you're ready for this one infect your news release that talk about the endorsement even brushed these critiques aside. But some of the criticism out there is that she was more of the insider candidate addressed that. Well I think first I think Tim Kennedy came out that nobody viewed as a party. All candidates -- Kennedy associates himself with the the worse party boss we've had thirty years in our communities Steve Stricker. And he makes no decisions without talking to him and that is another reason why Beijing got this endorsement is because our organizations trying to move away from the bad old days. And trying to pull things together I think the huge. -- you know huge endorsement for Beijing would put such a majority showed that. You do see a primary though obviously. Absolutely at both candidates on the street right now sufficient what you said. And I think this will be another heated contest and then middle BR Italy won on the streets. Do you think there's a risk of the primary. He then there's always the talk during primaries about unity. Who does does whoever your candidate is come away weakened by the primary process and maybe give the seat to a Republican -- is that not a risk you worry about. I'm not worried about that because it's such a democratic district and we have two very good candidates and whoever wins this primary I know I'm gonna be behind them a 100% whether it's -- your community or legislator and as -- going to re electing a governor. So I'm not too worried about -- in this district. A -- you -- the governor I have to ask you real quickly what do you think about yesterday's working families party convention. Where the governor basically cut a deal with the the more liberal. -- group in order to get their endorsement and move ahead with the unity. Well look at are you see a lot of posturing going on by different organizations. You know when it comes election time I think the governor has done a lot for labor. I think that some parts of labor one of them do more and I think -- just came to this conclusion yesterday that. I'm certainly Andrew Cuomo is a way better candidate who organized labor than than his opponent and I think it's the end of the and that's probably what difference. All right great stuff thanks for joining us we thank you -- You two that's Erie county Democratic Party chairman Germany's --

Harm's Way Lyrics
Artist: 16 Horsepower
Album: Sackcloth 'n' Ashes
here ain't nothin' that ain't in my way
an like the fool i am for my own gain i pray
you say you found, a way back inside my closet
ol' bones upon bones an joints upon sockets
yep yey
i am an honest man when i ain't lying
i am a living man when i commence to dyin'
bring it down bring it down on me
put me on a high horse so everyone can see
then kick the nag an leave me be
swingin' from the tree
listen good people i'll tell you some truth
i got no reason to lie to you
i'm as clean as a hounds tooth
i still love the woman of my youth
the lord on my behalf doth pray
he's with me even in harm's way

Getting Dirty With Social Media Tools
I spend eight hours a day five days a week talking ceramics. After work, I come home and walk in the countryside of Florida a mile and a half with my toy fox terrier, Puppup. As eight o'clock rolls around, I crack open the laptop and start my Master's Program term homework. On the weekends during the day, when my hands are not covered in moist clay, I might be packing up an order, designing new plates, or blending glazes to provoke that exclamation "Wow!" from the next group of wedding registry millennials on Etsy.
On nights that are raining and we are not walking, I am select Etsy shops for my next Treasury on Etsy. This shopping gallery of 16 featured Etsy stores pulls in viewers, favorites, and orders to my Etsy shop Extrudergirl. Once the Treasury is designed, I post a link to it on social media networks like Twitter, Facebook and Pinterest. At the end of the month, I run a traffic source report to see which social media network is working for me as seen below*:
* (Etsy, 2015)
In trying to expand my marketing for Extrudergirl, I have started delve into Twitter, Instagram and Google+. Trying to maintain the different social media networks is time consuming even when I am not balancing work, home, a small business and school. A month ago, I was introduced to a free social media management site called Hootsuite. This program allows me to schedule my posts to a variety of social media networks. I can check daily, weekly and monthly scheduled posts making appropriate adjustments with one click. I have new insight to my posts, followers and content with Twitter, Google Analytics and Ow.ly. The reports created helped me make better decisions on content I was posting based on what my followers have been responding to (Hootsuite). The dashboard gives me a quick snap shot of my Twitter account when @Extrudergirl has been mentioned in a post, or I have been retweeted or liked as well as any current activity of those I am following.
A few days after Hootsuite, I came upon Klout. The Klout is tool that measures your presence on the social media landscape. When I first signed on my Klout score was an 18.94. I was disappointed. I had read that the average score is 40 and wanted to know how to achieve such notary (Klout, 2013). After following some very simple instructions on post content, time and volume, my Klout score increased within days. I held a new steady score of 48. Combining the results of Klout with Hootsuite helped me to decide to use Facebook for my personal use only and not my Extrudergirl ceramic business.
Using Hootsuite and Klout as my new social media tools for posting to my Twitter and Google+ account, I thought about an article I read by Cindy King where she talked about Social Mention (King, 2011) which tracks "and measures what people are saying about your company" (socialmention). This search reports specific keywords related to your company or products. This unique tool will help me be more conscious of words I wanted related to my Etsy store Extrudergirl when people do searches. I did a search of Extrudergirl. My name was linked to my blog, Extrudergirl, and the word ceramic as seen below.
This result was startling. I am new to the Hashtag world. Almost everyone has seen and a good handful of you have used the pound sign (#) with a word after it. I thought I would at least have something linked to #extrudergirl since I have been using that to tag pictures on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook. In an article I recently read by Cindy King, she recommended Tagbound (King C. , 2015). Tagboard lets you see what is being said related to your hashtag across the social media landscape. I am hoping in the next three months as I expand my Twitter usage and remain consistent with blogging, that the hashtags will be measurable.
My Extrudergirl social media goal over the next three months is to increase my Klout Twitter Score, adding posts to my Google+, and use hashtags and keywords to drive followers, fans and buyers to Extrudergirl. As my blogging grows and tweeting content improves, I am hoping to increase my retweets, tweet likes and Google+1 volume as well. For now, I am heading back to the studio to get dirty.

So, it's been a very interesting year and a half since I got married. Darling Husband and I have had some rough times but we are now doing okay and thinking of TTC. I am going to the gyno tomorrow and need to know what to ask. We are in our 30's and are now ready. I went off BC a year ago. I've been up to date with my dentist though not on immunizations; but hey, I guess I can take it if/when needed. I haven't been good with prenatals but I eat very healthy AND exercise and will start taking them now. I bought the fertility monitor (I was tired of charting…I'm too lazy to wake up at the same time every day. I did it for 2 months and stopped). Anyhow, any other things to know? Use of preseed? Fertility windows? Which prenatals will you recommend? How to not freak out if I don't get pregnant in a few months? I shouldn't go anonymous but I don't want folks knowing we are trying. I'm just scared it will take a while and people will start asking questions I might not be willing to answer. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.


text: The movie "The Inconvenient Truth" was just shown at several local churches. This is not fantasy! Read the articles from NASA. One states a new analysis of global climate change by a group of NASA scientists is terrifying. Arctic sea ice in winter is melting far faster than before, a new and alarming trend that researchers say threatens the ocean's delicate ecosystem. Scientists point to the sudden and rapid melting as a sure sign of man-made global warming. An article by Ronald Brownstein on Oct. 4 states, "Cities and states are taking on green initiatives. A clear signal from Washington is missing, that will reduce greenhouse emissions and increasing energy efficiency are national priorities." Another article from Helsinki, Finland, in discussing the Kyoto treaty states, "Washington abandoned the Kyoto treaty, saying it would hurt the U.S. economy." I urge people to write, e-mail, contact your senators and representatives demanding that the government make climate change a priority. It's not just for our benefit, it's for the world! Can the St. Joseph County Highway Department please construct bicycle paths for students who run track and ride in bicycle groups? We need pathways from the University of Notre Dame to Auten Road to prevent riding in the street three and four abreast. For everyone's safety listen to us who drive that road daily. Doesn't the 101-year-old woman who is still driving a car realize what a hazard she must be to other drivers (Tribune, Oct. 6)? Her reactions in an emergency cannot possibly be fast enough to avoid injury or death to other drivers and their passengers. Just backing out of her driveway could easily injure someone. My suggestion is that she quit driving now, before harm comes to others, as well as to herself! I am neither surprised nor shocked that former U.S. Rep. Mark Foley, who endeavored to present a public persona of "virtue and light," has been exposed as a hypocrite. He is not the first. So-called "religious" figures such as Jimmy Swaggart, who cavorted with a prostitute, and Jim Bakker, who had an extramarital affair with Jessica Hahn, clearly leap to mind. For years now, and often in the face of much ill-informed criticism, I have been attempting to inform our community about the dangers of self-appointed censors, self-righteous fanatics and demagogues who hide behind religion to mask their bigotry. Obsessive preoccupation with matters relating to human sexuality and the fanatical desire to impose one's morality upon others frequently is used to conceal a person's own demons, guilt and lack of self-control. And yet the media ask so little about the background of these people, and politicians genuflect before them like President Bush before Halliburton. While I clearly agree that children should be protected from materials they are too young to understand, adults also have the right to be adults and make adult choices. And they certainly have the right to not have these choices impeded by people who, to paraphrase the New Testament, are like tombs, all purity and cleanliness on the outside, but full of stench and decay within. I just read Patricia Flewelling's letter (Oct. 8) about how poorly University of Notre Dame football fans behave. She was "infuriated" that people were upset about Michigan State's team planting that flag in the field after defeating ND last year. How is that not entirely disrespectful, rude and arrogant? If my team did that, I'd be embarrassed and ashamed. The writer said what's inappropriate is those "Muck Fichigan" T-shirts. Here, I wholeheartedly agree. There's no excuse for being so nasty. And then the writer said "when the Michigan band took the field for halftime performance, ND fans booed the entire time the band played so you couldn't hear a note." I was at that game, along with tens of thousands of other people, and it simply isn't true. We enjoyed their band's performance quite a bit. They received respectful attention during their performance, and applause afterward. They did get a few boos during their school song, but not everyone exhibited that display of poor sportsmanship. Nobody's perfect, but this is Notre Dame country, so don't be "infuriated" when people support them. Let's just ditch the poor sportsmanship; that means quit bashing the other guy, no matter who that is -- including ND. Please, someone tell me, how can you live in a city as big as South Bend and not have more than one choice for high-speed Internet access? I am moving to an area less than 5 minutes away from downtown South Bend and the only choice I have for high-speed Internet is Comcast. Everyone knows how expensive Comcast is and if I wanted to switch to Comcast from another cable subscriber, I get charged an early disconnection fee. But yet, where I live now in Mishawaka, there are several choices. How can that be? Come on, South Bend, get with the times and expand the service areas. Edmund Burke once said, "the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good people to do nothing." While this may be true, a group of area students and community members refuse to stand idle in the face of injustice. Today, they will walk in solidarity with children of northern Uganda who have suffered for two decades in a war that, until recently, had been largely ignored by the international community. Ninety percent of people in northern Uganda have been forced into internally displaced people's camps where poverty, hunger and disease claim more than 1,000 lives daily. Tens of thousands of children have been abducted into the rebel Lord's Resistance Army, which aims at the destruction of the government. Additional thousands of "night commuters" walk miles nightly to sleep in towns where there is a decreased risk of abduction. South Bend is one of 75 cities in 14 countries to host GuluWalk, an event designed to increase awareness of these atrocities. In light of a current peace deal, international support is now more critical than ever. Registration is free and will begin at the Potawatomi Zoo at 12:30 p.m. For further information e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.com. Unfortunately, the Constitution does not include serving as the poster boy for jihadist recruiters as an impeachable offense. The most recent National Intelligence Estimate states "The Iraq conflict has become the 'cause célèbre' for jihadists, breeding a deep resentment of U.S. involvement in the Muslim world and cultivating supporters for the global jihadist movement." Characteristically, the president seems more upset about the disclosure of the report rather than its content. The president complained, "Here we are, coming down the homestretch of an election campaign and it's on the front page of your newspapers. Isn't that interesting?" However, isn't it more interesting the report's conclusions were not made public before the Sept. 11 2001, memorials when the administration and its supporters were describing their critics with the refrain "Cut and run"? While we cannot vote this administration out of office during these mid-term elections, we can make sure that its loyal congressional supporters do not return to Washington. WRITE TO US In the last eight years, there has been a great deal of change in the South Bend Community School Corp. Even more changes were proposed, but thanks to board members such as Sheila Bergeron, they were not adopted. The school board has certainly had to make some difficult decisions. I am proud to have Bergeron as my board member based on her record on such issues. I see that Bergeron now has competition. It seems strange to me that, as closely as I have tried to follow the issues affecting the school corporation, I have never heard of this person. Where was he when there was discussion of closing Adams High School? I know where Bergeron was. She was fighting not only for what was best for the members of her district, but, more importantly, for what was best for the children. Does anyone truly believe Adams would still be open if not for the hard work and dedication of Bergeron? Recently, the board voted to remove a very popular principal from Adams and have him reassigned. It was clearly former Superintendent Joan Raymond's last jab at the Adams district and at Bergeron for having the nerve to ever vote against her. As mid-term elections approach we can expect to hear more about how tough Republicans are and how weak or opposed to military action the "cut and run" Democrats are. Twentieth century American history includes the following: Woodrow Wilson (Democrat) led us into and successfully out of World War I. Franklin D. Roosevelt (Democrat) led us into World War II against, at that time, strong Republican opposition ("isolationists") and even some Republicans who suggested that we enter on Germany's side to "wipe out the British Socialists." Harry Truman (Democrat) led us out of World War II and ordered the dropping of the atomic bomb, the single most deadly military strike in history. He also led us into the Korean War. It was Dwight D. Eisenhower (Republican) who after being elected, visited Korea and concluded that there was nothing more to be gained and ordered withdrawal -- Republican translation "cut and run." John F. Kennedy (Democrat) and Lyndon B. Johnson (Democrat) led us into Vietnam. Opposition to "Johnson's war" led to his withdrawal from possible re-election. Richard Nixon (Republican) after years of trying but failing to win that war, decided to "cut and run." Score: Decisions to enter major combat: Republicans 0 Democrats 4. Cut and Run Republicans 2 Democrats 0. Republicans are good at rewriting history. So, just how did our elected Indiana congressmen (and woman) vote on the environment? You know, on clean water, clean air, energy, fuel economy, Arctic refuge protection and pollution. That is, legislation affecting these issues. Here is the 2005 scorecard by the League of Conservation Voters, a non-profit national environmental advocacy group: U.S. Rep. Peter Visclosky, 72 percent; Chris Chocola, 6 percent; Mark Souder, 0 percent; Steve Buyer, 0 percent; Dan Burton, 0 percent; Mike Pence, 6 percent; Julia Carson, 89 percent; John Hostetler, 11 percent; Mike Sodrel, 0 percent. The Indiana Senate vote: U.S. Senator Evan Bayh, 85 percent; Richard Lugar, 20 percent. These 2005 scores show quite clearly that, in the aggregate, they did miserably, to put it mildly. (It should be noted that Visclosky and Carson were recipients of a national environmental award. They are environmental champions!) Well then, if you like a clean and wholesome environment, who would you vote for come election time? There is no question in my mind. We Hoosiers could do better. Much better. The ballot that the voters of the 2nd Congressional District will cast Nov. 7 may be the most important one they have ever cast, as control of the U.S. House of Representatives may very well be determined by who is victorious. The current campaign has been a real turnoff for most voters. On one hand we have a congressman who has been in office four years, voting for the tax cuts that economists feel have stimulated growth in the economy, as well as opposition to abortion, to name a few. On the other hand is Joe Donnelly, who is supported by the ultra-liberal MoveOn.org. His campaign has called Chocola a crook and a liar. Some of his commercials are so misleading that several of the television stations refuse to air them. If Donnelly is elected to Congress, I believe he will vote for U.S. Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-San Francisco, to be speaker of the House. Pelosi represents one of the most liberal, permissive constituencies in the country. Her staunch liberal bias will cause total gridlock between the president and Congress. Do you think Indiana values will be recognized? The question each voter must ask is: Who will best represent my values? Will it be a freshman congressman, who is controlled by liberal organizations, or will we re-elect our congressman who holds Indiana values? Recently, there was a man who was overly-friendly with children. He used the Internet to further his fantasies. He put himself in a position of power and control over those he desired. He increasingly became obsessed with having sex with minors. When the world found out, there was outrage and disgust. He was labeled a pervert, and maligned from one end of the country to another. He was called a deviant. An aberration. His name was John Mark Karr. When tales of his sexual fantasies surfaced, there was no call to ban heterosexuals from teaching in our schools. No one said that heterosexuals were unfit to serve in Congress. Why, then, the double-standard with former U.S. Rep. Mark Foley? Because he's gay. In the Foley case, one brush has been used by conservatives to paint all homosexuals as evil. Why can't they see the transparency and mean-spiritedness of their prejudices? By this logic, women would view all men as perverts if the sins of one man, straight or gay, were projected onto all others. Would that be fair? What Karr and Foley have done is wrong, but their actions do not represent the norm for heterosexuals or for homosexuals. Let's be grateful for that. One of the two people running for 2nd District congressman is running around in a gas-guzzler! And guess what? It is not U.S. Rep. Chris Chocola, R-Bristol; it is his challenger Joe Donnelly! While on my way out of town I passed by the United Auto Workers Local 5. Imagine my surprise (not really) to see a very large, very old RV with Joe Donnelly's name all over it. Did he buy it from Gov. Mitch Daniels? One of the big hooplas that people have been yelling about is that Chocola owns and drives a Hummer that is a gas-guzzler. I would be willing to bet that the Hummer gets better gas mileage than the RV and comes from here in Mishawaka, built by men and woman from this area. But the real issue is not who drives what and how much gasoline it uses, but what the candidates will do for us in Washington. Let's not worry about whether Chocola drives a Hummer (which, by the way, I have only seen in parades) or that Donnelly has a large, old RV, but where each man stands on the issues. I sincerely wish the political candidates would wake up and smell the coffee. Since all they have done is slam each other (both are equally guilty), I think we the people have no clue what they are standing for at this election. If they would get to the business of debating issues and stating who or what they stand for, then political commercials would be informative rather than an irritant. Since they won't, I suppose we could vote on them like on reality television as to who is the most vulgar and boot him out of office? We must bring back a balance of power in Washington. One-party rule has taken this country to the brink, and the only way back is to bring oversight and accountability to our government. Democrats must gain control of the House of Representatives or the Senate to have a voice and to represent half of the country that has been ignored during the Bush administration. Because this election is so important with such far-reaching consequences for our country and the world, I urge people to vote a straight Democratic ticket. People might be thinking, "No way -- Grandpa would roll over if I voted Democrat." But would he? Would he recognize what has become of his Republican Party? War, seemingly without end, out-of-control spending, international scorn and government officials actually serving jail time for cheating and ethics problems. Grandpa might just say, "OK, do your duty as an American. Take back the country I helped build and make me proud. This time, vote Democrat." The Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States have endorsed a candidate for the Indiana 2nd Congressional District. Based on the VFW assessment of veterans issues, national defense, security and military concerns, they have endorsed Joe Donnelly.

We'd expect something like this if it were called "Grounding and Pounding With the Stars." Or even "Rear Naked Choking With the Stars."
But "Dancing"? Randy Couture's going dancing?
The Las Vegas MMA legend had been rumored to be joining the cast of "Dancing With the Stars," but that doesn't make Thursday morning's announcement any less surprising.
The UFC Hall of Famer has been paired with Karina Smirnoff for the show's 19th season, which kicks off at 8 p.m. Sept. 15 on KTNV-TV, Channel 13.
He'll be competing against Tommy Chong, track star Lolo Jones, "The Fresh Prince of Bel Air's" Alfonso Ribeiro, "Duck Dynasty's" Sadie Robertson, talk show host Tavis Smiley, actress Lea Thompson, fashion designer Betsey Johnson, NASCAR driver Michael Waltrip, actor Antonio Sabato Jr., "Pretty Little Liars" star Janel Parrish, actor Jonathan Bennett and "YouTube sensation" Bethany Mota.
Just remember, no matter how ridiculous the sparkly outfits they put him in may look, you might want to keep your opinions to yourself. He's still Randy Couture.

[JURIST] The US Supreme Court [official website] on Tuesday ruled [opinion, PDF] 8-0 in Mayo Foundation for Medical Research v. United States [SCOTUSblog backgrounder] that medical residents are not classified as students for the purpose of federal tax exemption. The Mayo Foundation for Medical Education and Research [official website] had sought to exempt stipends paid to doctors during the residency portion of their medical training from the taxes on wages for employees required by the Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) [text]. The US Treasury Department [official website] argued that the Social Security Act does not treat medical residents as students, and therefore they should not be eligible for tax exemptions under FICA. The court found that the government's interpretation of the two statues was reasonable:
We do not doubt that Mayo's residents are engaged in a valuable educational pursuit or that they are students of their craft. The question whether they are "students" for purposes of [FICA] § 3121, however, is a different matter. Because it is one to which Congress has not directly spoken, and because the Treasury Department's rule is a reasonable construction of what Congress has said, the judgment of the Court of Appeals must be affirmed.
The case was decided by a unanimous ruling in which Justice Kagan took no part, as she was the US Solicitor General during parts of the case's history.
Medical students working for the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, receive stipends from the foundation and the University of Minnesota [academic website] for the medical and patient care services they provide. The district court ruled that residents qualify for the exemption and ordered the US Treasury Department to refund FICA taxes paid during the second quarter of 2005 to both Mayo and the university. The US government appealed the district court's ruling to the US Court of Appeals for the Eight Circuit. The circuit court reversed [opinion, PDF] the lower court's holding, concluding that the judiciary must "defer to the regulation limiting this exception to students who are not full-time employees because it is a permissible interpretation of the statute."

'He Got Game' (1998)
Spike Lee's take on the basketball genre deliberately turned conventions on their head. For instance, instead of a pulsing and vibrant soundtrack, Lee chose to use classic American composer Aaron Copland's music. Several NBA players and coaches had cameos in this story of a former prisoner ( Denzel Washington) whose son is a hot college basketball prospect. The son was played by Boston Celtics guard Ray Allen.

Wrist Supports for Fractured Ulna
When an adult breaks their forearm, it is usually both the radius and the ulna that are snapped due to the force. However, if only one bone is broken, it tends to be the ulna. This is because it is located on the outside of the arm, meaning if the arm is injured during activities such as self-defence, it is the outside of the arm that takes the pressure and becomes damaged. An obvious deformity will be visible even if only an ulnar fracture has occurred as both bones rely on each other for support.
Wrist supports for fractured ulnae are a key part of the recovery and healing process. For the bone to knit back together, it must be successfully immobilised and the bones held in one place while this healing takes place. A wrist support for a fractured ulna provides the same level of support and stability as a traditional cast but is lightweight and more practical to be worn everyday. Wrist supports for fractured ulnae provide gentle compression to help control the swelling and minimise pain as well as keeping the arm and wrist still.
There are a range of wrist supports for a fractured ulna here at Health and Care, ensuring you can find the right type to suit your needs. If you require any additional information or wish to know more about the wrist supports for fractured ulnae available, please contact our support team on 020 7720 2266 and they will be happy to assist you further.

text: With all of the features many of us are clamoring for, is it possible for the iPhone to handle two phone lines to one phone? Meaning two separate phone numbers from AT&T coming into one iPhone? I realize that in it's current state it can't, but with a software upgrade is it possible or would this require a different configuration within the radio itself? I carry two phones (1 FLIP, 1 iPHONE 3G) with AT&T because I have two lines with different area codes and I thought it would be great to consolidate them into one phone. I have searched all over the net and Apple's site but don't really see anything about this.

How you benefit
Working with a specialist agency that is truly focused on delivering results will inevitably deliver better results. In a traditionally-structured agency, you communicate to the account director/manager who relays the brief to the creatives. This not only slows things down, it also creates a risk of misinterpretation. Our multi-skilled structure reduces turnaround times substantially. And because our creative people are also your account managers, our strategic and creative response...
Who we are
Established in 1996, we're a mid-sized agency based in Sydney. Our clients will tell you we're creative, inventive, strategic, results-focused, quick to respond and easy to work with. Two things set us apart. First, we're financial specialists. With unrivalled depth of experience in all strata of the financial services industry (both wholesale and retail) we already have a sound understanding of your business, your target markets, the media that reach them and the messages that move them.

The old RockyDog did it again. I crept into school again. I hung out in Mr. S's class. Peter says Mr. S is one of his favorite teachers.
Mr. S's class was in the computer lab when I snuck in. Dog, you should have seen those kids pound the keyboard. I wish I could type on a computer. These dang paws are too clumsy and get in the way. Peter's lucky. He can type on a computer. He's fast, too.

Government's revenue budget is forecasting a surplus of £2.86m for 2017-18.
Total income for the year is estimated at £964m, an increase of 4.8% over the equivalent figure for 2016-17.
Government's gross spending is estimated at £1,030m in 2017/18, an increase of £17m (1.65%) on the equivalent figure for 2016-17 and an average spend across all services of around £2.8m a day.
The operating balance, needed for contingency and cashflow purposes, is forecast to be £68m or 7 % of gross spending by the end of 2017-18.
A Central Contingency Budget of £3m is retained to allow some flexibility for the financing of unbudgeted inflationary costs and any other unforeseeable items, as is the separate Contingency Fund with a further balance of over £3m to meet unexpected, unavoidable or unplanned expenses.
A new Five Year Financial Plan is in place to deliver truly sustainable public finances by 2021-22.

Throwing a strike and looking at an apparent one were among the things that ended up costing the Morton softball team Wednesday in a Class 3A sectional semifinal loss to Geneseo.
Throwing a strike and looking at an apparent one were among the things that ended up costing the Morton softball team Wednesday in a Class 3A sectional semifinal loss to Geneseo.
Geneseo won 6-5 to earn a berth in the Saturday title game against the winner of tonight's game between Limestone and host Metamora.
"We came back in the end and put ourselves in the best position we could hope for,'' Morton coach Stacey Whitcomb said.
Cassie VanDyke's infield hit and walks to Jessica Kerby and Rachel Faletto loaded the bases for Morton with two outs in the bottom of the seventh inning.
Clean-up hitter Emma Clark, who had a home run and a two-run single in her first three at-bats, struck out on three pitches. The third strike was looking, on a pitch Whitcomb thought was outside.
"Without looking it up, I would guess Emma hasn't struck out looking five times all season,'' Whitcomb said. "She's an aggressive hitter. With two strikes, she swings at anything close."
Geneseo (30-7) scored the winning run on an umpire's call in the top of the seventh.
Alli Rivera's single to center field plated Brooke Nienhaus to tie the score. On the same play, it looked as if Morton center fielder Jayne Rector threw out pinch-runner Maggie Bergeson trying to score from second base.
The right-side base umpire ruled Faletto, Morton's fourth-year starting shortstop, had interfered with Bergeson, a sophomore situational runner. Bergeson was awarded home to give Geneseo the lead.
"(The umpire) said there was no contact but that the runner had to stutter-step around Rachel," Whitcomb said. "That's a tough call to have go against you when you're talking about the go-ahead run."
Morton (29-8) helped put it in the hands of the umpires.
Clark had a two-run single and Carly Yingling followed with a two-run double in the sixth to give Morton a 5-4 lead.
Nienhaus led off the seventh for Geneseo by reaching on Morton's fourth error.
A sacrifice, a seeing-eye single and a stolen base put Geneseo runners on first and second with one out for Rivera, who had lined a home run to right in her last at-bat.
Kerby, the Morton catcher, had to reach high for VanDyke's first three pitches. Rivera stroked the fourth into center field to begin what turned out to be the game-winning chain of events.
"It was supposed to be an intentional walk,'' VanDyke said. "The first three were kind of high and, with the runner on third, I didn't want to throw it away. The last one came in too low, and she hit it.''
The interference call on Morton was one of three unique calls made on the bases. Geneseo had two runners called out for leaving first base after the ball had been returned to the pitching circle.
"Technical issues,'' Geneseso coach Bob Pettit said about a series of discussions he and Whitcomb had with the umpires. "There were a number of rare calls today. I think the umpires got them all right."
