The corporate regulator has today released its first market assessment of Chi-X Australia, the only rival to the country's main stock exchange, finding a raft of "agreed actions" for improvement or attention.
It is the first time Chi-X Australia has been assessed by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission since it was granted a licence to operate in Australia.
The report finds nine agreed actions for improvement or attention, including conflicts arising from its independent non-executive director's role as chairman of E.L & C Baillieu Stockbroking, a problem with its hidden order threshold controls, and problems with Chi-X's "documentation and record-keeping".
However, ASIC says that, while the agreed actions are important, they have not stopped Chi-X meeting its statutory obligations, and that Chi-X has agreed to fix any problems.
Since Chi-X Australia began operating in October last year it has been at the centre of the debate about "market fragmentation" and the growth of high-speed trading.
The ASX chief executive, Elmer Funke Kupper, has said authorities made a mistake by allowing Chi-X into Australia because it has contributed to market fragmentation.
Carole Comerton-Forde, of the Australian National University's College of Business and Economics, has said that since the arrival of Chi-X, the use of high-frequency trading strategies has expanded dramatically.
But Chi-X says investors have benefited from its arrival in Australia through lower fees and "improved product offerings", both a direct consequence of competition with the ASX.
It has been lobbying the federal government to break the ASX's clearing monopoly.
The ASIC report notes that, up until March this year, Chi-X's share of total market turnover remained less than 1 per cent (below $50 million).
But it also notes that daily turnover increased during the final four months of the financial year, reaching a high of $150 million in mid-May.
On Thursday, Chi-X reported that its share of daily trading volume was more than 9 per cent.
The ASIC report says some of the improvement in turnover on Chi-X can be attributed to the launch of its trade reporting facility for off-market trades.

Bad Packets: Crypto limits won't work
In response to the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, some U.S. policymakers are calling for limitation on encryption technology.
|E-mail Wes Simonds
Professional policymakers are attempting to portray this issue as a question of balanced priorities, and taking their cue thereby, so are many in the media. Civil liberties must inevitably take a bow to national security, says this school of thought, and strong encryption and national security are incompatible concepts. Current polls suggest that in the wake of the senseless tragedies of Sept. 11th, Americans are leaning toward security even if it comes at the expense of convenience.
In many respects, such as airport policies and border control, this makes perfect sense. In the question of crypto legislation, however, it doesn't.
I'm not saying this because I'm some sort of propellerheaded privacy nut. Really. If government employees feel the need to go through my e-mail to Dad, let them, say I. (Though I doubt they'll be able to get through Dad's history of the automotive internal combustion engine without losing consciousness - a form of potent encryption in its own soporific sense; certainly I can't.)
No, my objection is simpler. Limiting crypto simply won't work.
First, domestic talent is hardly the only source of such technology. The U.S. is the premiere stronghold of high tech, true, but encryption technology is simply not so abstruse and impossibly challenging an arena that we can expect sheer weight of programming talent to allow our government to dictate terms. Requiring U.S. coders, and the firms they work for, to fork over copies of crypto keys to the government - one concept under discussion - is a feeble approach at best; U.S. firms are just a fraction of the total.
Perhaps the best-known example of strong crypto is Pretty Good Privacy, which is largely the work of a single man, Phil Zimmerman. With all due respect to Zimmerman and his achievements, however, it's difficult to believe that his individual work outruns the vast collective power of international software engineers by a margin of more than a few weeks.
The fact of the matter is that skillful, dedicated coders do exist in every corner of the world, and given obvious successes in the last decade, it seems reasonable to conclude that creating strong and versatile crypto is certainly within their range of talents. Consider Linux, the wildly successful open-source operating system, which was founded by a Finnish undergraduate working in his spare time. Linux is maintained and modified by an international coalition of talented, unpaid programmers who have ushered into existence not only a sophisticated modern operating system portable to multiple platforms, but (arguably more impressively) the open-source process itself. These guys are certainly up to a cryptographic challenge (and, in fact, have already addressed it in a wide variety of ways).
In short, U.S. legislation is hardly going to apply to non-U.S. programmers.
Second, it's not even a question of foreign development talent, because strong crypto is already all over the world. For two years now, ever since the U.S. relaxed exportation limits, sophisticated encryption technology originating here has been duplicated on FTP sites globally, both in precompiled form and, more importantly, source code. Those archives are hardly going to disappear if a few hundred guys in Washington vote one way or another; they will continue to serve as a powerful resource for anyone who wants to make use of them.
The crypto genie is definitely out of the bottle, folks. It gave us our three wishes - which appear to have been secure e-commerce/banking, VPNs, and individual privacy - and it's touring the globe with a gleeful indulgence. It's surfing the waves off the coast of Australia, sipping espresso in Rome, shivering in Siberia and making a yicky Calvin face at sushi in Japan.
Fat, drunk, and cheerful behind a pair of Ray-Bans, Strong Crypto has its feet propped up in the Caribbean islands. The sun is out, the sky is blue, it has a massage scheduled for later in the day, and even though it's not even noon yet, it's already asking for another umbrella drink.
It won't come home no matter how nicely we ask. It just won't.

Phillip Morris might be at Cannes
it's going to be shown at Cannes in May.........
Last edited by fluffy on Fri Apr 24, 2009 5:20 pm, edited 2 times in total.
If that actually is the case, it's very good news indeed. Cannes is big and important for all sorts of movies. Pixar's "UP" (looks great again) is opening the festival this year. I don't know what the effect is for the USA, but if it shows in Cannes, it will sure get a distrubutor for most European countries. And if it's not released yet by then, there's a huge chance it will show on the filmfestival in Ghent (Belgium) also, this fall. A few years ago 'Eternal Sunshine' was there also and it won the public-choice price.
Finally, some good news.
What's the source, fluffy?
I hope that article is right and gave us a scoop.
Since the official announcement of this year's lineup is on April 23. (It's the number! I know, that's old) What's for sure? INGLORIOUS BASTERDS (Tarantino) and UP (Pixar).
What Hollywood-stuff has a very good chance? TAKING WOODSTOCK (Ang Lee), BAD LIEUTENANT (Nicolas Cage), TETRO (Francis Ford Coppola), THE IMAGINORIUM OF DR. PARNASSUS (Terry Gilliam with Heath Legers final role), DRAG ME TO HELL (Sam Raimi)
I guess we'll know it for sure on April 23.
This should be the next step in finding a good distributor for the US release! I hope there will be some American critics invited to see it!
"Snakes! Why it had to be snakes?"
-Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)
Don't worry, there will be a lot of critic reviews once it goes through the LA Screening and Cannes.
If it's received in a positive way (critics are always a bit harder for movies showing at Cannes), it's a go! That's for sure. (I hope)
The festival line-up was announced today, but unfortunately "I Love You Phillip Morris" wasn't mentioned. I guees that means the news is not true, so no Phillip Morris at Cannes?
But I am sure Besson and the other producers will be there and work on the distributor deal.

Maybe it's one of the many side-events, not taking place in the official selection? Like 'Christmas Carol' is. (also not announced, btw)
I sure hope so, cause to be honest ... it's taking too long now. If this movie isn't picked up soon and not able to get shown at more filmfestivals, It's going down. I've seen it many times before, I'm just extremely suprised that there's a possibility this movie (I mean, c'mon!) might be one of those.
Well the books writer says it will be there......................so i'll reserve judgement untill we get more official notification............it may be that it's going to be shown specifically to industry folk and it won't be announced in the film line-ups..............i think Jim etc will be on a marketing drive there................

Jan. 19, 2008
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - MIT men's lightweight crew traveled to Cocoa Beach, Florida, for its annual winter training camp from New Year's Eve to January 9. Without academic demands, the oarsmen's lives were distilled to their simplest pleasures: rowing, eating and sleeping.
The crews trained on the Indian River, which provided miles of great water, a couple curious dolphins and few other distractions. The varsity and freshman squads focused on applying the strength and conditioning work of November and December to their boats.
Rowing twice per day, athletes made technical gains and also got the chance to go `toes-to-toes' in intra-squad racing. In addition to training, this year's highlights included evening barbecues at the hotel; a trip to the Kennedy Space Center; `Thunderdome'; and the annual skit night.
The squads will shake the sand out of their flip flops, rinse the salt from their uni-suits and return to formal practices at the Pierce Boathouse on the first day of classes.
MIT opens the 2008 season hosting the 29th running of the Joy Cup versus Yale and first time guest, Georgetown, on Saturday April 12 in Cambridge. Look for additional details as the date nears.

How to Answer "Why Do You Want to Work Here?"
Today we're going to be tackling the dreaded question, "Why do you want to work here?"
This is a very common question and chances are in almost every job interview you go on, you'll be asked this question.
"Because I'm broke and I really need the money!"
As tempting and honest as that may be, what they really want to know is if you're looking for their job or if you're looking for just any job. If you come across as desperate and needy, then it just looks like you're going to take anything that comes along and you may leave them if a better opportunity arises.
Your best bet is to focus on the company itself. I recently talked to Reisha, a hired Snagajob member who was hired at Kohl's during a group interview. They went around the room and asked everyone the same question. When the, "Why do you want to work here?" question came up, everyone responded with answers like, "Honestly, I'll do anything! I just really need the money!"
In order to set herself apart, Reisha said:
"I want to work here because I admire your staff's friendliness and I want to be a part of that."
She focused on the company itself and focused on what she admired about them, their customer service, something they take very seriously.
Keep your answers about them and how well the two of you can work together. Make sure you do your research on the company before you go in for the job interview. Take a look around at their website and see if they've won any awards, maybe for how they treat their employees or how they treat their customers. These are things you can specifically mention when answering the "Why do you want to work here?" question that show that you take your job search seriously and really want this job.
"I've been a fan of Build-a-Bear for years now and I think that this is a great place to put my customer service skills to work. In fact, I saw on your website that you won an award for being a great place to work, and every time I've been in your store I've seen how happy your employees were. I would love to join your team."
The three things to remember in order to answer this question well are:
Talk about how much you admire the company.
Talk about what a great fit you would be in the position
Show that you've done research on the company itself.
Interviewing can be stressful and the best advice we can give you is to practice, practice, practice! It will help ease some of your nerves so you can go in with the confidence that you know what's coming ahead.

French Artist Courts Chaos, Neighbors Want Peace

This post has nothing to do with its title, but after staring at this for 20 minutes trying to come up with one, I just grabbed the first song title I could find. Thanks, The Damned. Once again, you come through when I need you.
We've had a drought in Southern California for so long now, even a little rain is cause for our local news to go apeshit with STORMWATCH!!11!!1 coverage. This week, though, we've had serious storms that have produced tornadoes, mudslides, flooding, and all sorts of things that every other part of the country that actually has weather can just shrug off.
I've spent even more time than usual inside writing this week as a result of the cold and wet weather, and I've made some good progress on a few projects including a short work of fiction and Memories of the Future, Volume Two.
Working on Memories Volume 2 has been a lot of fun, even though there aren't as many atrocious episodes in the back half of the first season. The stronger episodes are more enjoyable to watch, of course, but it's the really lousy ones that are the most fun to recap and make fun of. (Too Short A Season was a fucking goldmine, but Coming Of Age was a real challenge because - even though it's all Wesley, all the time - it's really good.)
Anyway, while working on Arsenal of Freedom this week (which starts out strong and has some great character moments for Geordi, but doesn't quite fulfill its promise), I wrote some Picard/Beverly slashfic* as part of a joke. I suppose I could have taken some anti-nausea meds and gone searching for some existing work to copy and paste, but I thought it would be funnier if I actually wrote it myself. You'll have to wait for the release (or maybe even the relevant Futurecast) to experience it, but I thought some of you may want to know that I got all of 41 words before I made myself throw up in my mouth and had to stop.
I hope the sacrifices I make for comedy are appreciated, he said, in his best passive/aggressive grandmother tone.
Well, it's raining like crazy again and there's a clown in the storm drain, so I'd better get back to work. Skin of Evil isn't going to snark all over itself, you know.
* It has been brought to my attention that "slashfic" is the term used to describe fanfiction where two dudes get all teabaggy and swordfighty whatnot. I have always been under the impression that any fanfic involving sexytime was called "slash" or some derivative thereof, regardless of the genders or alien races involved. Upon discovering that I have been incorrect about the finer points of this particular world for my entire life ... I'm really okay with that.

Ross excited to make first start behind plate
NEW YORK -- After spending the first two games as an observer, catcher David Ross had his Opening Day on Thursday night, making his debut for the Red Sox in the finale of a three-game series against the Yankees.
"Today is definitely my Opening Day," Ross said. "When you have to wait around, I think the nerves are probably for me more than anybody else. I'm definitely feel excited about today. I'm a little nervous and ready to be back there to catch that first pitch."
Though Ross is a backup player, he is one of the newcomers the Red Sox are most excited about.
With his catching intelligence and some pop in his bat, Ross has a lot to offer.
"All the work we do in Spring Training is to get to where we can play with the lights on and the extra deck up top in the stands," Ross said. "I'm excited and ready to get this first one under my belt."
Ross immediately sprung into action, throwing out Brett Gardner on an attempted steal in the bottom of the first.
Jarrod Saltalamacchia was strong offensively over the first two games, going 3-for-7 with three walks, but manager John Farrell had designated Thursday for Ross before the series started and he saw no reason to change those plans.
Lefty Andy Pettitte was pitching for New York, and Saltalamacchia is a stronger hitter against righties. Ross is 4-for-12 in his career against Pettitte.
"He's had good numbers against Andy," said Farrell. "He's worked well with Ryan [Dempster] in Spring Training for the couple of times that we did see him pair up with Dempster. The fact is, he's an important part of our club and we want to get him in the mix, and with a late arrival into Toronto tonight, with righty [Josh] Johnson going tomorrow, Salty will catch there. There's probably three or four different factors that went into today's lineup with David."
The only other lineup change was Jonny Gomes moving back to the designated hitter spot after getting Wednesday off. Gomes will always start against lefties. Daniel Nava got the night off.

Gamecocks' third straight 11 2 season a contract that will pay him in a year what Super Bowl advertisers fork over for approximately one one millionth of that time.
and your thoughts. Those thoughts: "Wow, I am rich."
5) This yacht($3,950,000): You can accommodate up to eight guests (along with two crew members) on this 84 foot luxury sailer, but do you really want that many people around you singing this?
4) The second and third most expensive guitars ever sold at auction ($3.2 million $4 million): They belonged to Jimi Hendrix and Bob Marley, and the former played his at Woodstock. Another option for the music junkie with millions of dollars burning a hole in his/her pocket: just buy the most expensive guitar ever auctioned, and enjoy your $1.3 million you have left over.
7) Snake Island, a private island off the coast of Wisconsin ($3.9 million): Snake Island has it all: 26 acres to roam, wooded areas to make you feel at one with nature, and a secluded 3,700 square foot house for time alone with Nike Cap Kids just you New Era Ny Snapback
7 things you could buy for the cost of a Super Bowl ad
1) 36 average prime time TV ads($3,922,416; note: as of 2011): In fairness, were one to take a random sampling of 36 prime time shows across different networks, it's very possible the 36 shows' combined viewership wouldn't beat the Super Bowl's.
2)This place in Manhattan($3,950,000): It's billed hereas "a unique opportunity to combine two adjacent apartments to create a palatial 12 room apartment on West End Avenue." The resulting palace would have four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and the envy of your friends forever. (Here's the floor plan, so you can get a head start on that unique opportunity.)
Everyone knows Super Bowl ads are expensive one look here shows just how costly they've gotten over the years. As clearly as that chart tells the story, though, we wanted more: real world examples of items you could buy for the (estimated) $4 million it takes to purchase 30 seconds of Super Bowl ad time. So we started looking and found that $4 million can still take you pretty far in the world. Would you Ny Yankees Cap
3) A year of Steve Spurrier coaching your football team($4 million): South Carolina's Ol' Ball Coach recently got a re worked contract following his Mlb Caps

Trout gets 'chills' in first Opening Day experience
CINCINNATI -- It's easy to forget -- with all the accolades, attention and awards he's accumulated in such a short amount of time -- that Opening Day really means something to Mike Trout.
He's only 21, coming off his rookie season, and on Monday afternoon, when introduced as the leadoff hitter and center fielder for the Angels at Great American Ball Park, he experienced one for the first time.
"It's a feeling you really can't explain," Trout said in the visiting clubhouse a few hours before game time. "Just sitting here, watching TV and everything, seeing all the Opening Days and stuff going on -- it makes you feel good inside. Every so often, you think about it and start getting chills. It's a pretty cool feeling."
Cincinnati, home to the first Interleague game to start a season and still an Opening Day mecca, is a legit plane flight away from Trout's roots in South Jersey, so he only had about 10 members of his family in attendance on Monday -- which pales greatly in comparison to the droves that came out to Baltimore and New York last season.
But they'll all be watching in Millville, N.J. And if they can't, a local radio station, WSNJ-AM 1240, reached an agreement with KLAA-AM to rebroadcast their feed from Anaheim for all 162 Angels games this season.
"I got a lot of text messages from people, wishing me luck and all that stuff," Trout said. "It's going to be a good night for me and my family, and the team."
Trout didn't have an Opening Day last year. Heck, he hardly had a first month. A nasty flu and shoulder tendinitis robbed him of a Spring Training, and the Angels' glut of outfielders made it an easy decision to send Trout to Triple-A for almost all of April.
That didn't stop Trout from having a memorable year, with a .326 batting average, 49 steals, 30 homers, a 10.9 wins above replacement score and an American League Rookie of the Year Award.
But it robbed him of this experience.
"Coming to the field today, seeing all the fans outside with the parade and everything, they have a great atmosphere here," Trout said. "It's going to be fun."

At first, Arjona Pjepi wasn't thrilled about UNF Reads, the University's new common reading program for freshmen. Being told she had to read "Freakonomics: A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything" by Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner reminded her a bit of mandatory summer reading assignments in high school. But the engineering major finished the book before her first day in a college writing summer session class and has no regrets.
"I would never have thought about what they wrote about, the different questions about things," said Pjepi, who enjoyed meeting people through class discussions about the book.
Organizers of UNF Reads hope Pjepi's experience will be repeated throughout the freshman class. The goal, according to Dr. Marnie Jones, associate dean in the College of Arts and Sciences, is to create a common reading experience for freshmen as well as help "make students more intentional about what's involved in active reading of an argument-based text."
UNF is one of more than 200 colleges and universities nationwide to initiate a common reading program, many of which have done so in the past 10 years. Each university selects one book each year and has every freshman read it during the summer before arriving on campus. The book can be fiction or non-fiction and range from best sellers to the classics.
The program is designed to help introduce freshmen to college-level academic inquiry, create a university-wide learning community and give students opportunities to engage in academic discourse. "Freakonomics" demonstrates that important issues cross all disciplines.
Organizers patterned UNF Reads after the most successful common reading programs, which integrate the book into student orientations, group discussions and the classroom. This fall, UNF will begin a campus-wide discussion of Levitt and Dubner's book during the Week of Welcome for freshmen, followed by other activities and events throughout the semester designed to further the discourse. Numerous activities such as discussion groups are planned at the residence halls. In addition, all ENC 1101 College Writing sections will use "Freakonomics," and it will be a required or secondary text in other general education courses. About 80 percent of freshmen take ENC 1101.
The experience is designed to create a common intellectual experience focusing on ideas that cut across much of the general education curriculum, according to the UNF Reads Web site.
Pjepi said the discussion in her ethics class this summer focused on whether certain situations the authors brought out were ethical. It was clear in class whether a student had read the book, she said.
Campus-wide buy-in is essential for the common reading program to be successful, and UNF is well on the way to achieving that goal, according to Dr. David Jaffee, assistant vice president of undergraduate studies. Organizers asked professors to consider whether they could incorporate the book into their disciplines, and many have done so. Economics professors were asked to identify upper-level students who could lead discussion groups in campus residence halls.
UNF's General Education Council, which oversees the University's general education programs, selected the book from suggestions submitted by about 50 faculty and staff. The book, which sold more than 3 million copies and spent two years on The New York Times best-seller list, uses economics to explore the hidden side of diverse subjects.
In what is arguably the most controversial chapter of "Freakonomics," the authors present evidence linking a drop in the crime rate to the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision 18 years earlier that legalized abortion. ". . . the crime rate continued to fall as an entire generation came of age minus the children whose mothers had not wanted to bring a child into the world. Legalized abortion led to less unwontedness; unwontedness leads to high crime; legalized abortion, therefore, led to less crime," the authors state.
"The value of this book is that they raise interesting and provocative questions," Jaffee said.
The authors suggest that asking the right questions and drawing conclusions can help solve everyday mysteries and even disprove commonly held beliefs.
"It makes you think about a lot of stuff you hadn't thought about," said Salman Hussein, a freshman biology major who also finished the book before starting his college writing class this summer.
Hussein and Pjepi both said students "better read it because they're going to be writing papers on it."
UNF Reads gave each incoming freshman a hardback copy during orientation and assigned them to read it before fall classes begin. The freshmen also received a list of questions to consider while reading as well as an e-mail reminder during the summer about the assignment.
On the Web, UNF Reads offers a student guide to "Freakonomics," information on participating in collaborative discussion, an instructor's guide and links to other sites and information. The site also includes a "Freakonomics" blog.
In a letter this summer, Jones offered incoming freshmen a little surprise. "Welcome to college," she wrote. "We are glad you are here – so glad we are presenting you with a quiz on 'Freakonomics!'" An assignment and quiz before the first day of class? Jones explained that it's only a diagnostic quiz and offered suggested readings and other tips for students who didn't score well.
Offering students help in reading more challenging texts before they arrive on campus is one way that UNF can provide incoming freshmen with some of the tools necessary for a successful college experience.
Assigning incoming freshmen from diverse backgrounds the same book to read over the summer provides them a shared experience. That enables students such as Pjepi, an immigrant from Albania who has been in the United States for nine years, and Hussein, a native of Somalia who came to the United States three years ago by way of Egypt, to exchange ideas about their common experience – "Freakonomics" – with students from Florida and beyond.
"I think it makes it interesting because you can share different ideas of what you thought about it," Pjepi said.
The ensuing activities in class and elsewhere on campus are designed to add to that common experience and help strengthen the UNF community. Jaffee said it also could enable the University to improve on its 78 percent freshman retention rate by helping students feel more a part of the campus community.

- Avaliado em 5 de 5This add-on is great. However, there is a problem I met. The context menu search doesn't work with the search engine added by selecting a seach.json.mozlz4 file. The search engine I added manually works well although. Hope to fix it.Yeah, this was definitely a problem in version 3.40.2, which was brought to my attention by some helpful users on GitHub. :) Thanks for reporting it too!
Version 3.40.3 should fix this.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – Sophomore Brian Rogers found
the back of the net in the 80th minute to help the No. 10 Harvard
men's soccer team to a 2-1 win against No. 13 Stanford in the first
men's soccer game played at the Soldiers Field Soccer
With the victory, Carl Junot, the Virginia B. and James O. Welch '52 Head Coach for Harvard Men's Soccer, earned his first win of his career. Harvard begins its season 1-0, while Stanford falls to 0-2.
Before 3,221 fans Saturday evening, the Crimson outshot the Cardinal, 9-4, in the first half, but an own goal by Stanford gave Harvard a 1-0 lead at 19:07. Jamie Rees controlled the ball down the right side and sent a cross pass into the box, attempting to find Alex Chi, who was cutting down the middle. Shaun Culver, a Stanford defender, tried to cut the pass off and knock it out of play, but instead he sent the ball directly into the back of the net for an own goal.
In the second half, the Cardinal managed to tie the game off a
free kick from 25 yards out by Bobby Warshaw at 50:36.
Warshaw took the kick from the right side and managed to bend the
ball past a diving Austin Harms to knot
the game at 1-1.
With just under 11 minutes remaining in the contest, Jaren LaGreca stole the ball deep in the Harvard zone and made an outlet pass to midfield, finding Rogers. The forward and reigning Ivy League Rookie of the Year took the pass and ran down the center, eluding two defenders, before sliding the ball toward the left side of the net. Stanford goalkeeper Jason Dodson dove to his right, but Rogers placed the ball perfectly, putting Harvard ahead for good, 2-1.
In the final moments, Stanford earned a corner kick, and the Cardinal played the ball into the box. With two second remaining, several Stanford players tried to head the ball on goal, but the ball sailed wide as time expired. Harvard held the final count in shots, 20-15, but Stanford led in corner kicks, 5-3.
Harvard will head to the road to visit Massachusetts Monday, Sept. 6 at 3 p.m. The game will be shown live in Western Massachusetts on CBS 3 Springfield.

Does not have a water filter
Possible Solutions
Do you have the correct water pressure?
Hollow or thin ice cubes along with slow or no water dispensing is likely due to low water pressure.
CLICK HERE for more information on getting the correct water pressure.
Are you using a reverse-osmosis system?
Connecting a refrigerator to a reverse-osmosis system could also lower the water pressure to the refrigerator, which will result in thin ice cubes, low ice production or decreased amount of water being dispensed.
CLICK HERE for more information on using a reverse-osmosis system.
Is there a kink in the water supply line?
A kink in the water source line can reduce water flow. Straighten the water source line to restore adequate water flow and pressure. To help reduce the chances of a pinched water line, do not push the refrigerator too far back against the wall or cabinet.

MOUNT VERNON, Ga. – After being swept three times in the early going of the 2012 season, the Georgia Southwestern softball team was sitting at a record of 3-7 going into Friday's double header on the campus of Brewton-Parker College. The Lady 'Canes would earn their second sweep of the young season by winning a pair of one-run games by a score of 2-1 and 3-2.
GAME ONE: Georgia Southwestern-2 Brewton-Parker College-1 (8 innings)
Runners left on base were the name of the game for the Lady Hurricanes in game one of the double header against the Lady Barons. The Blue & Gold would need extra innings to score their second and game-winning run of the game. This despite collecting eleven hits, which resulted in eleven runners left on base.
Brewton-Parker would strike first with their only run of the game in the third inning when Ashley Wooton would fly out to Hayley Knight in center field, which scored Desiree' Kendrick on the play. The run would be one of the few blemishes for GSW pitcher Casey Burns on the afternoon.
GSW would not tie the game until the sixth inning when designated player Brittny Dennison would drive in Rachel McElroy on a single. The Lady Hurricanes would be unable to drive in any more runs in the inning despite having two runners on with only one out.
Fellow senior pitcher, Jessica Martin, would come into the game in the 5th inning to keep the BPC bats at-bay. Martin would throw the game's final four innings while giving up two hits, one walk and striking out five batters. She would also garner the decision by game's end to get her second win of the season.
A scoreless seventh inning for the Blue & Gold would push the game into extra innings. The game-winning hit would prove to be a RBI single by shortstop Janna Anderson. Her game-winning hit was the crown in a 3-4 day which also included a double.
Casey Burns continued her stellar early season play on the mound for the Lady 'Canes. The Hopehull, Alabama native would throw four innings giving up one-run and recording a strikeout. The senior has been charged with one earned run or less in each of her four starts this season.
GAME TWO: Georgia Southwestern-3 Brewton-Parker-2
The Lady Barons' bats would cut to the chase in game one with a RBI triple in the first inning to take the early one-run lead. Hurricane pitcher Katie Maddox would settle down and answer with four-straight scoreless innings.
The game would be won by Georgia Southwestern in the sixth inning with a three runs. Singles from Hayley Knight and Ashley Cavender would set up Gabby Buck and Rachel McElroy for RBI's. Mason Moreland would also score after she advanced from third on a throw.
GSW's hits would be spread throughout their lineup card in game two as all five hits were scattered among five different hitters.
Katie Maddox would surrender an unearned run in the BPC half of the sixth inning. She would also overcome two walks in the 7th inning to close the door on the Lady Barons and earn her first win of the 2012 season. The Macon native would throw the complete game giving up two runs with only one of them being earned with a strike out.
The season's second sweep of the year puts the Georgia Southwestern record at 5-7. It will be a quick turnaround for the Lady Hurricanes as they will return home to face Thomas University in less than 24 hours. Saturday's double header versus the Night Hawks at Lady Canes Field is scheduled to start at 1 p.m.

Updated with name: Beaumont officer killed while on duty
Beaumont Police Officer Brian Hebert, who had been with the police department for just over 10 years and was up for a promotion to sergeant, was killed in the line of duty Friday night, July 8, 2011, during a high speed chase.
According to officers, Hebert was attempting to deploy spike strips near the intersection of Dowlen Road and Ivanhoe Lane in an effort to stop a Dodge Nitro being driven by John Wesley Nero, a 30-year-old white male who was fleeing from police when the incident occurred. Hebert was behind his car putting on his traffic vest when Nero swerved into the center turning lane where the patrol car was parked and struck it head-on, according to officers who spoke with The Examiner.
Nero is currently in police custody at Christus St. Elizabeth Hospital and facing a charge of capital murder for killing Hebert. A Jefferson County judge has set his bond at $250,000.
Officers said Nero had been involved in a domestic disturbance and physically assaulted his mother and grandmother with a makeshift club after being caught looking a child pornography on his computer. The family members called police and once officers arrived at the home located at 5925 Chisholm Trail, they used information from the family members to issue an attempt to locate on Nero's vehicle, and that information was passed along throughout the department. The officers also took Nero's computer into custody for evidentiary purposes.
Later, officers received another disturbance call from the residence on Chisholm Trail, but when they arrived Nero had again fled. One of the family members questioned by officers said Nero would "hang out" near the mall and over by WalMart – even sleeping there at times in his vehicle. With that information, officers began looking for Nero in the area and located his Dodge Nitro behind the Kohl's Department store in the 4000 block of Dowlen Road.
As officers approached the vehicle, Nero fled at a high rate of speed behind the store and traveled down Old Dowlen Road to Eastex Freeway. At that point Nero traveled south on Eastex at a high rate of speed and merged on Interstate 10 before exiting at College Street. Nero continued to stay ahead of the pursuing officers and turned onto Dowlen Road. Officers said Nero's red Dodge Nitro was traveling around 100 mph when he swerved into Hebert's patrol car.
Officers said they believe the in-car video from Hebert's patrol car will confirm witness statements that Nero deliberately swerved into the patrol car. Additionally, marks on the roadway appear to show the Dodge Nitro was originally in the outside lane and that Nero took a hard left into the patrol car. Hebert, who was standing behind the car with his trunk open, likely never saw Nero's vehicle as he was putting on his safety vest and getting prepared to deploy his spike strips. The impact of the crash caused Hebert's patrol car to slam into him, knocking him backward about 50 feet. Officers were at the scene immediately and began performing CPR and other lifesaving techniques but Hebert did not appear to have a pulse. He was transported to St. Elizabeth's Hospital where he was pronounced dead a short time after arriving.
Nero was injured and paramedics inserted a breathing tube into his chest for a collapsed lung, but his injuries did not appear life-threatening.
Hebert's funeral arrangements are pending.

Why not use Discussion Forums?
This question did come up regularily [1] on the community discussion mailing list [[2]].
Apparently, there are two groups of people. One does not like forums and the other one would see some benefits. Therefore each one tries to convince the other to switch.
My conclusion of all those discussions is:
- there is no "better" system for everyone.
- there is no benefit in convincing anyone to switch.
- we need both in parallel.
- let's decide users themselves and help them to do so.

I recently started creating some reports against our case tracking data, which lives in a JIRA database. JIRA is a phenomenal issue tracker, but I just can't get the reports and data analysis out of it that I really need. And that's OK, that's what we have the Pentaho platform for. One thing I came across that I thought would be good to explain a bit is the difference between "Save As" and "Publish" in our report designing tools.
Both the Report Designer and the Report Design Wizard have a "Save As" option and a "Publish" option. The "Save As" option is pretty straight forward, and "Publish" is a very powerful feature, if you know how to use it:) I have to warn you at this point that these options do produce slightly different results when you are in Report Design Wizard than when you are using Report Designer, and I will spell out what those differences are in a moment. If you are wondering WHY this is the case, read my previous blog post:)
Let's start by talking about what Save As and Publish do in Report Design Wizard.
If you choose the Save As option in the Report Design Wizard, you are saving the entire state of the wizard session you are in. The file will have a .xreportspec extension, which is the file extension that the Report Design Wizard expects when you select the File | Open option in the wizard. It may not seem intuitive at first to "save" the state of a wizard. However the wizard allows you to set so many options for your report, that you may want to go back to your wizard session and tweak a few report features. This makes less sense when you have the Report Designer, which gives you much more powerful report tweaking capabilities. The Save As option in the Report Design Wizard was built at a time when Pentaho didn't have a Report Designer, and so, as the two tools become more tightly integrated, I would hazard a guess that this Save As feature may go away.
The real power of the wizard is in its Publish feature. When you choose the Publish option from the Report Design Wizard, you get a number of files that amount to everything you need to run that report in the Pentaho BI platform. Here is a list of the files that would be generated with a Publish, and what they are for:
- JFreeReport-WizardReport.xreportspec - the saved wizard session. This is the same file you would have if you chose the Save As option.
- JFreeReport-WizardReport.xml - this is the JFreeReport report definition.
- JFreeReport-WizardReport.xaction - this file is the action sequence built to run this report in the platform. If you are not familiar with action sequences, you can get a great overview from the Pentaho Creating Solutions Guide.
- JFreeReport-WizardReport.properties - this is the resource file, used for holding the action sequence's extracted strings. This file facilitates internationalization of your action sequence.
- PentahoReporting.png - a sample image, referenced in the action sequence, that can be used in to represent this report in your solution's UI.
The Report Designer's Save As and Publish functions serve the same purposes, but result in slightly different outputs.
When you select the Save As option in Report Designer, you are saving the designer session you are working in. The file will have a .report extension, which is the type of file that the Designer expects on opening of a file.
When you choose Publish with the Report Designer, there are fewer files than what the Report Designer produces, but the same end goal is achieved. Here are the files produced by the Report Designer and what they are for:
- Report.xml - this is the JFreeReport report definition.
- Report.xaction - this file is the action sequence built to run this report in the platform.
Why, you might ask, does the Report Designer generate less files, but accomplish the same task? There are few differences between the outputs that I should note:
- First, the Report Design Wizard still gives you the wizard session (.xreportspec), even when you Publish, whereas the Report Designer does not give you the designer session (.report) on Publish.
- The Report Design Wizard extracts strings from the action sequence file for translations into a .properties file, whereas the Report Designer does not.
- The Report Design Wizard generates a sample icon for the action sequence where the Designer does not.
- Another difference worth noting, that is not apparent by examining just the list of output files, is where the query for the report lives when either tool publishes. The Report Design Wizard will put the query in the action sequence file, which is the best practice. The Report Designer embeds the query in the JFreeReport definition.
These differences constitute minor inconsistencies in implementation that I'm sure will be addressed very soon. That is everything I had hoped to cover.
I hope that this helps a few people get up and running with Pentaho Reporting, because it really is quite an extraordinary set of tools, and just keeps getting better (not that I'm biased or anything :).

These little mini PCs called MK802 with Android 4.0 OS are quite the hit all over the Internet due to the fact that they are low power, decently performing and cost effective mobile platform that connects to your TV set and kind of gives it most of the features that an Android-based smartphone offers. What has attracted my attention to them however is that fact that some sellers of these devices claim that they also offer stereoscopic 3D support, so I've ordered one to try it out and see what kind of stereo 3D support do they have and is it really worth it. You can imagine that not a lot of people buy them because of the advertised stereo 3D support, so the information about that feature is not very much and getting a fist hand experience with the device is always much better. So I've just recently got the small device and played with it for a few days before sharing my feedback from the MK820…
The device is based on AllWinner A10 processor which is essentially a Cortex A8 ARM CPU running at 1 GHz (single core) backed up by a decent GPU (some sellers label this as 1.5GHz with 1GHz CPU and 500MHz GPU), with 1GB DDR3 RAM memory (though there is also a version with 512MB) and 4GB ROM. You have an microSD card slot that can take up to 32GB cards, so extending the storage is not a problem, two USB ports (one is mini-USB) with OTG support so you can connect devices like keyboard or mouse as well as USB flash drives etc. There is a built-in WiFi support and apparently USB Ethernet adapters are also supported if you a cable connection to a local network. On top of that you get Andoid 4.0 OS on a rooted device (no need to root it) with full access to Google Play, meaning it is easily hackable and extendable and you can also boot other OSes on it from an SD card. You have an HDMI port that allows you to easily connect the device to an HDTV or a computer monitor and all this comes for less than $100 USD with the shipping from China. It is not an OUYA, but you also don't have to wait to March next year to get one either, so it does not sound like a bad deal… not as fast and powerful as Tegra 3, but it works decently fast.
But what about the stereo 3D features it should offer? As I've said some of the sellers of the MK802 mini PC with Android mention stereoscopic 3D support or 3D video support, others don't. There is actually a reason for that and it is the fact that initially the first software build of the MK820 firmware supports stereo 3D video playback with HDMI 1.4 frame packaging output, but apparently the later builds don't or at least it is not working. The device comes with a special video player called 2160p or Gallery (the exact name is not very clear) which is not available on the Android Market, and in order to get 3D video playback you need to open the 3D video with that player, apparently it supports hardware acceleration through the GPU so you can not only play 3D video, but also 2160p (4K) 2D video over it.
The device I've got was with the most recent software build and while it had the mentioned special video player and the player supported 3D video playback it simply did not work when I've tried to activate the stereo 3D mode. So I went back to the previous software it had the same problem and after that to the initial software build where I was able to easily make the 3D video playback work just fine. I've noticed that the initial version of the firmware for the MK802 was using an older version of the player, so I've tried upgrading the firmware to a newer version and replacing the video player with the one used in the initial build (the info page from the initial build is on the photo above), however the 3D mode on the TV set still did not activate. So the conclusion is that in the more recent software builds the stereoscopic 3D support has been broken and not because of the updated video player version apparently and the only way to be able to use the MK820 to play stereo 3D videos is to install the first build of the firmware for the device. Fortunately this is not hard to do as the image file for that firmware is available and you can easily flash it on the device, the actual problem is that there are some bugs and things present that are not functional in that build and the more recent versions of the software fix these and add some new useful features.
The special 2160p (Gallery) player does have support for HDMI 1.4 frame packaged output, so when you play a 3D video and select the right 3D input method of the video you can have it played back in 3D automatically and that is a good thing. The player supports Side by Side and Over/Under format for 3D videos, along with Interlaced and Anaglyph 3D formats, and you can play 3D videos in 2D as well if you wish to. No support for Blu-ray 3D ISO files for example or MVC-encoded videos is available though. The interface of the player in the only working version is a bit confusing, especially the different 3D modes menu and while this has been fixed in the more recent versions of the video player, as I've explained they do not function properly, but after trying out the different options you'll quickly learn what they do and what to use.
So what is the verdict for the Android-based MK802 device? It is most definitely an interesting product at an attractive price, and while it does work with stereo 3D video if you manage to make it work (get to the early firmware) there is more to be done and seeing that in the more recent software releases 3D video playback does not work properly I will not recommend to get it if you plan to mostly use it for 3D video playback. If you however don't care about stereoscopic 3D video playback the MK802 Android 4.0 mini PC is actually not bad, you can play with it a lot, use it is a development platform for Android or simply make your older HDTV "smarter"… not much of a game console alternative though as it is not that powerful, but you should be able to run most not so demanding Android games. The good thing about the device is that there is already a large community hacking it and even developing custom ROMs working on extending the support and features and while 3D video playback support is apparently not much desired feature, gaming with it as well as different other uses are among the priorities. There is also apparently a revised version UG802 coming out soon at a slightly higher price, but with a much faster Dual-Core A9 CPU and pretty much similar other specs and features, no word on stereo 3D support for it though. And again, while I will not recommend it for 3D video playback, the MK802 and the new UG802 devices can actually be quite useful and fill your time before we see what the OUYA will bring on the table when it becomes available and if it will answer all of our expectations.

Welcome to Watch List, where we identify five things on TV to watch while you stay at home this weekend and congratulate Rush Limbaugh on getting married tomorrow. And what lady wouldn't fall for this handsome young rapscallion? Just one whiff of his cigar and the lasses come running. LET'S GO!
SCRIPPS NATIONAL SPELLING BEE – 8:00PM (ABC) People, I tell you without a trace of sarcasm that this bee is one of the best live television events of the year, every year. It DESTROYS the Oscars for pure excitement. It lays waste to the NBA Finals. You will not find a better mix of pulse-pounding moments and poorly chosen pleated khakis. And ABC throws in Erin Andrews as an interviewer, just to ratchet up the puberty factor. It's perfect television, I tell you. I strongly encourage you to check out your favorite site's live blog or Twitter feed of the event all evening long. No event is better suited for real-time jokemaking than this one. Watching the parents alone is like viewing an entire season of "In Treatment." These parents will MURDER their children if they don't go to Harvard and become doctors. It's riveting. I wish this thing was on every week. Watch it. ANTICIPATION: F-R-O-T-H-I-N-G!
WHALE WARS – 9:00PM (Animal Planet) It's the season premiere of this show about trying to save whales from evil poachers who have beards and kill whales simply because they don't like them. Watch as these Ahabs get the harpoons turned on them. ANTICIPATION: LIBERAL!
2010 MTV MOVIE AWARDS –9:00PM Sunday (MTV) This show used to be cool until it became as self-serious and annoying as the MTV Video Music Awards. The strained outrageousness was also no help. Ah, but there is hope for this year. Aziz Ansari is your host, and Aziz Ansari is a comedy God. Also, Tom Cruise reprises his role from "Tropic Thunder" for a couple of mandatory in-show sketches. Could be fun. ANTICIPATION: RAAAAANDY!
KATE PLUS 8 – 9:00PM Sunday (TLC) It's the debut episode of this series, which is just "Jon and Kate Plus 8" with the Jon hanging around. Kate Gosselin is a miserable human being. Tune in to see if her poor kids are rescued by a better, nicer mother. Like, I dunno, Ursula from "The Little Mermaid." Anyone is an improvement, really. ANTICIPATION: SAD!
DROP DEAD DIVA – 10:00PM Sunday (Lifetime) It's the season premiere of this Lifetime show about a gorgeous woman reincarnated as plus-sized lady. Many a Lane Bryant ad will be shown throughout. ANTICIPATION: HEAVY… WITH LAUGHS!

Soccernet.com THESSALONIKI, Greece -- So, whatever happened to Brandi Chastain? The hero of the 1999 Women's World Cup shootout and a member of one other world championship side and a gold-medal winning team, hasn't played a minute in these Olympic Games. In fact, she is the only field player on the U.S. bench who hasn't see any action in the first three games. It is rare that a coach will put a player in the first time in the knockout round of a competition, so you have to wonder if Chastain will see any action. The Americans, who meet up with Japan in a quarterfinal encounter on Friday, could play as many as three more matches, including the semifinals and either the bronze- or gold-medal game. Approached by a writer in the gift shop of the Hyatt Regency hotel on Wednesday morning, Chastain, one of the most thought-provoking interviewees yours truly has encountered in his long career, declined to talk about her situation. "It's not the right time," she said. U.S. coach April Heinrichs, who played with the 36-year-old Chastain on the 1991 world championship team, decided to start younger players on defense such as Christine Rampone (29), Cat Reddick (22) and Kate Markgraf (28 on Aug. 22) to play alongside Joy Fawcett (36), and Heather Mitts (26), who started for Rampone in the 1-1 draw with Australia. Heinrichs said her evaluation process for the Olympics has encompassed seven months, approximately 160 training sessions and 18 games. "You put all that together and I think our process (shows) at the next level, at the Olympic level, the athleticism, speed and quickness. The four who we started in the first few games are the most consistent performers at the highest level. "At the end of the day, you saw at the Brazil game their actions with and without the ball, their quickness with and without the ball was remarkable. Our process tells us that we started our best defenders, first and foremost. "You have to have good defending at the back. After we have good defenders, we want people who can perform at the international level and people who can help us set play. In that process, we feel Brandi contributes possession out of the back, leadership and a strong air game. "We're making a choice of going with people who are first good defenders." Unless you have been hiding in a cave the past five years, you obviously know that Chastain was thrust into the national and international spotlight by converting the winning penalty against China. She continued to make hsitory by taking off her jersey -- revealing a sports bra -- and stunning the world. The last several months have been difficult times for Chastain, who has donned the U.S. jersey some 179 times since making her debut back in 1988. In the first game of the 2003 Women's World Cup, Chastain broke a bone in her right foot and never played another minute. After the third-place match, Heinrichs said that not having an experienced hand such as Chastain in the lineup hurt the team. You have to wonder if Chastain never fully recovered from the injury or has lost a step, which can be devastating at the international level. If Chastain has shown any disenchantment, she has kept it to herself. "Like the professional she is, obviously I know she wants to get out there and wants to play," said team captain and midfielder Julie Foudy, a teammate of Chastain for 16 years. "She knows she can contribute in other ways. She's such a leader on this team. "That's the thing I love about her. All these things are piling up. It's never become a team issue. She's always the one cheering people. I could hear her last night in the game shouting and encouraging us. I think she's a wonderful example for the younger kids." Rampone agreed. "She's awesome," she said. "She has a great heart. You would never know if she was bothered by it or hurt by it because she is always there 100 percent for the team. In the locker room she always has a smile on her face. If it is hurting her, we wouldn't see it."

Berkeley Man Sentenced for Possessing Destructive Device
A man who was found to be storing a gun and apparent bomb-making materials in his Berkeley home in 2009 has been sentenced in U.S. District Court in Oakland to two years and three months in prison for two federal criminal counts.
Emoru Oboke Obbanya, 31, was sentenced Tuesday by U.S. District Judge Claudia Wilken.
He pleaded guilty before Wilken in September to one count of possessing a destructive device -- namely, a flare gun that had been converted into a handgun -- and one count of possessing a gun without a serial number.
The loaded, converted handgun and bomb-making materials, including what appeared to be a homemade explosive, were found by Berkeley police in a search of the home Obbanya shared with his parents on Grizzly Peak Boulevard on July 18, 2009, according to court documents.
Police were responding to a 911 call in which the caller hung up before completing the call. Obbanya later said he accidentally dialed 911 when trying to call his father, whose cellphone number began with the numbers 918.
Obbanya was originally charged in the state court system, but the case was transferred to federal court after he was indicted on the U.S. charges.
Both prosecution and defense lawyers said in sentencing briefs that Obbanya had mental health issues and apparently had assembled the gun and explosives because he planned to commit suicide.
Prosecutors wrote that Obbanya "committed serious crimes," but apparently with the goal of harming himself rather than others.
Assistant Federal Public Defender Joyce Leavitt wrote that Obbanya's outlook has now improved and that he has taught himself computer programming and hopes to pursue a career in information technology after his release.
The sentence of two years and three months was agreed to by both sides as part of the plea bargain.
