Hide Forgot
Description of problem:
When logged in on the console of a Gnome 3 system-
If sleep-inactive-battery or sleep-inactive-ac are set to true in the Gnome 3 settings, and there's a reasonable timeout set for each,
then, when the timeout elapses, users that are logged into the machine remotely via ssh are disconnected, when the machine suspends.
While this *can* be worked around for a single user (via creative scripting and the Gnome 3 Inhibit API), the correct fix would be to use systemd-inhibit when launching sshd for a remote user.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
How reproducible:
100% reliably reproducible
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Log in to a Fedora 17 system running Gnome 3 on the desktop
2. Ensure that the system is set to suspend whatever duration of inactivity (battery or AC)
3. Log in via ssh from a remote system
4. Permit the desktop session to remain inactive for the duration set for the system's current power mode.
Actual results:
System suspends, disconnects remote users.
Expected results:
Inactivity based suspend is disabled, so long as remote users
are connected via ssh. This would match a behavior seen in OS X,
that might be expected by certain users.
Additional info:
This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 17. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora
'version' of '17'.
Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life.
Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 17 is end of life. If you
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the
'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life.
Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.
Fedora 17 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-07-30. Fedora 17 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.
If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.
Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
Viktor, I guess this never got anywhere?

The Ascent ~ Album Review
A couple of months ago, I decided it was time to get my fat ass back to working out. I tried to find a good play list of mainstream artists, but nothing was getting the blood flowing. I had previously seen different Indie Artists promoting their music on Spotify, so I decided to give it a try. I searched for the artists I've featured on here and gave FFO first try. After two months, I can honestly tell you FFO's album "The Ascent" is my go to music. Two straight months and it has not gotten old.
Every song on this album is a blood pumping adrenaline rush. Seriously! Let me say it again, "I fucking love this album!" Hell, you don't even have to be working out to enjoy it. Just don't plan on staying put as you listen.
Far From Over consists of five members, Zac Birdslow on vocals, Alex Carter on bass, Tyler Battist and Noah Schoeneck on guitar, and Zan Pointon on drums. Zac has some killer vocals that will hook you from the first note.
I would love to see these guys live, but unfortunately they are from Hannibal, New York and I'm stuck here in Illinois. Who knows, maybe next summer they will find their way to St. Louis and play at Pointfest. Either way, if you get a chance to listen to these guys, do it. Even if you are not a fan of this type of music, there is a chance they might reel you in just like they did me. This is a great debut album and I can't wait to see what comes next for these guys.
Far From Over
I should have prefaced this blog page by saying I was a country music fan at heart, although I'm open to all kinds of music. These guys are freaking awesome! I listened to about five songs on YouTube and there wasn't one I didn't like. The above song "Tonight" was probably my favorite of the five. I wish I would have had this song available when I was writing my book, "American Hero" at http://fictiononthego.com. It would have been helpful with the killing parts. Not that this song reminds me of killing someone, but gets you pumped.
I definitely want to hear more from these guys. If you do too, check them out at http://facebook.com/ffoband or on twitter at @ffoband.

Leadership Style Investigation
John Gorkisch
General Patton used inspiration for his leadership style. He was inspirational to his followers by his example of, "Get up front!". His style is easy to identify by studying the facts of history. The reason General Patton was effective as a leader was because he had a special way of imprinting his ways of leading on others. What the general did very well was to use empowerment and coaching to let his men know they served with him, not under him. He displayed versatility and flexibility by meeting and beating all the known and unknown variables of war. General Patton also displayed self-awareness by having as a principle for health, that an active mind cannot exist in an inactive body. Patton displayed a very abrupt and straight forward communication style. He may have been able to improve this style by using a little more tact. (Power, 2014)
For my next leader I chose to research Pope Francis. His leadership style is one of humility. This is shown in the principles that come from it. They include: don't stand over your employees-sit down with them; avoid insularity; don't judge-assess; take care of people-not lobbies; go where you are needed; temper ideology with pragmatism; and don't change-reinvent. These principles have been carried out well and effectively as can be seen by the Pope's high approval rating. (Zetlin, 2014) Pope Francis uses a communication style that is simple, clear, and from the heart. I do not believe it is a style that can be improved upon. (Schilder, 2014)
I chose Ronald Reagan for my third leader to investigate. His leadership style was one of self-sacrifice. What Reagan did well and effectively was to put the interests of those he served ahead of his own interests. In early 1981 he said, "….there is no limit to what a man can do or where he can go if he doesn't mind who gets the credit." Ronald Reagan practiced leadership. Leadership can be defined as the skill…

Epona EmailFiler is a SharePointe mail management solution which offers deep SharePoint - Outlook integration. Combining the both SharePoint and Outlook user interface experiences and functionality, users can store, drag-and-drop, and retrieve e-mails and attachments from Outlook to SharePoint easily.
The application retains Meta data and automatically checks for custom SharePoint meta data and duplicate files, so users can work unhindered by protocols and high data quality standards are maintained. EmailFiler is user-oriented, enhancing the user experience with SharePoint via the familiar Outlook interface.
Users can switch between either application's interface to use the screen style which is most comfortable for them, or a third EmailFiler email view which combines the SharePoint browser interface and Outlook list style. Increased convenience of sharing decreases the need for unsecured local hard disk storage.
EmailFiler allows users to work with those SharePoint folders to which they are authorized, while in Outlook, without logging into SharePoint via a web browser. Direct access allows users to drag-and-drop e-mails and attachments to and from the live SharePoint site(s). The application's ease of use, and resulting efficiency, is demonstrated by its practical functionality.
Filing and retrieving e-mails
Simplifying filing and retrieving e-mails between SharePoint and Outlook helps propel routine file sharing. Users can easily:
- Drag-and-drop, Cut, Copy and Paste, or the right-click context menu to move and/or copy e-mails from Outlook to SharePoint.
- Enable the automated prompt for sent items as a reminder to file outgoing e-mails.
- Set Outlook auto-file rules to direct incoming e-mail to predefined SharePoint folder destinations.
Manage attachments from Outlook
Attachments contain a large share of businesscritical data; these files exchanged via e-mail can also be stored in SharePoint independent of the e-mail.
- Drag-and-drop attachments from the e-mail body to the SharePoint destination folder.
- Preview attachments embedded in e-mails when browsing SharePoint folders with using Outlook 2007.
- Securely maintain standards as attachments cannot be entirely removed from the e-mail body (that is detrimental to compliance).
De-duplicate files stored in SharePoint
Automatic de-duplication is a built-in feature of EmailFiler; duplicates cause not only confusion but clog storage space. Users may:
- enable automated prompts to alert when duplicates are filed.
- file duplicates with an optional follow-up number.
- intercept storing the file before it reaches the SharePoint folder by selecting the option in the duplicate prompt.
Retain metadata (and custom metadata)
Metadata, the extra information related to a document, i.e. the sender, recipient, time and date information in a standard e-mail, and custom SharePoint metadata fields, improve searchability. EmailFiler respects Outlook and SharePoint metadata:
- E-mail metadata is retained in SharePoint by default, and custom SharePoint metadata is requested of the user when files are stored in locations that require metadata.
- Mandatory custom SharePoint metadata is denoted with a red asterisk, and required before users can proceed. The same metadata can be assigned to all files during large migrations.
- Custom SharePoint metadata can optionally be enabled in Outlook email lists.
Switching interface views
Within Outlook, SharePoint and Outlook style interface options adapt to user interface preferences. The views include:
- The standard Outlook interface e-mail lists.
- The standard SharePoint web browser view lists.
- A custom default EmailFiler 'email view' in SharePoint enables Outlook style e-mail lists in SharePoint web browser view.
Searching and filtering SharePoint folders
For larger SharePoint sites, users can limit the SharePoint folders which are visible in Outlook, or search for SharePoint folders, and in SharePoint folders through filed items (including e-mail subject lines and body text).
- Filter visible SharePoint folders with the EmailFiler black or white list filter options in Outlook.
- Search for a SharePoint folder using the EmailFiler 'Find Folder' right-click context menu option.
- Search through filed items using the standard Outlook search bar similar to the usual Inbox search, but while in the respective SharePoint folder.
Manipulating SharePoint Folders (and sub-folders)
Where user permissions allow, secured flexibility with the level of SharePoint folder modifications from Outlook is useful for efficiency and user productivity.
- Create, delete, and copy SharePoint folders between sites, and other SharePoint locations, freely.
- Create and delete shortcuts to SharePoint folders in EmailFiler's favorite's category 'My Matters'.
- Disable 'delete' SharePoint folders function to prevent accidental deletion.

Watching Heroes Fall
No one wants to watch the hero fall, to lose his grace, to lose his faith. No one wants to see the pain or bear witness to his failure as a light falters, flickers and fades. No one wants to watch the darkness encroach and slowly swallow all sense of hope. They only want the pillar, the mountain, the rock, the guiding beacon in the night, the fire that keeps the dark at bay. But for the hero the fall is part of the journey, part of what makes him rise above what others only dream; it is the fire in which he is forged, the sacred duty which he must perform… …alone.
There is no peace where I am, I am become the storm. My earth has washed away beneath the fury of my heart and only a restless sea remains. Would that the sky would fall and I lose this fire's burn, that I may find my peace in the dying of the storm.
The Poet's Sin
To create is to destroy, to bring about the death of that which you give life. From the moment of their utterance words begin to fade, waiting to be forgotten, misused, misplaced, and in time are only as the passing of the wind. This is the artist's curse – to destroy that which we love in the act of its creation, to condemn it to death through an act of love. And thus, in the doing, we bleed, we die, for what we give the world. And I die in what I have made.
The Last
There was no end in the beginning, there was no forever, no always. There was only the moment, eternal and pure, perfect and sacred. There was no distance too great between us, nor hours that could not be counted; there was nothing but what we shared, no fear of what could be. And now the miles that separate have turned the hours into months, and the distance ever widens turning forever into yesterday. There was no end in the beginning, no thought of what would be; there was only hope and promise, and there was only you and me. But now, at the last, I see the end that we created, in its eventuality, and I wish that we could stall it for one more moment in eternity.
Sonnet II
The light removed foretells the winter's cold, leaving barren, bitter the soul that weeps; and black is night when o'er me it takes hold, with naught but my mem'ries and dreams to keep. There's only now the fading light of love now dying slowly like the summer flame, to give me hope that my treasured white dove will find her peace and remember warm days. But waiting, waiting ever shall I be for light's return and summer's golden rays, looking for hope in the coming of spring, and the cleansing of sins in April rains. For now the grey of winter grips the land, and I watch helpless as love slips my hand.
The Muse weighs heavy on me tonight.
A Sonnet
If I am to be what I cannot be, and only play the role that I am asked, then I would rather that I be not seen, and allow this moment instead to pass. But in the stars in the jeweled heavens, and in the sun and moon that never meet, I have found company in my treason, and silent vigil o'er my heart they keep. Though would I not rather embrace the moon! And there in her light whilst defying Fate, as when an August evening wove its rune, I'd kindle passion and its yearnings sate; But I am to be nothing more than this – a sun in shadow, who longs for your kiss.
My first attempt at a Shakespearean/Elizabethan style (or any style) sonnet. Just thought I'd explore some traditional forms of poetry a little.

We are thrilled to have this critical step on its way to completion. Please pray for an uneventful closing.

Stone golem by Fichtenfoo, again
I wasn't happy with my previous mention of Fichtenfoo's stone golem sculpture. I later contacted him and got permission to post a couple of pics along with my links. What I find really charming about this project is the fellow saw some game characters he liked, then went on to make something different but inspired by it. And then I just like golems. This golem is made of parts of building ruins, which is nice.

Cup and Cone
This White Bear Lake institution has been making summers happy for more than 40 years. Expect to encounter chocolate and vanilla (and a twist of the two, of course), plus an ever-rotating flavor of the day (which can be swirled with vanilla). There are lactose- and gluten-free options, too. Along with family-friendly prices and a heaping helping of nostalgia, the place is also Dip Cone Central, with a long list of flavors that include chocolate, cherry, butterscotch, coconut, birthday cake and blue raspberry.

Godiva Chocolatier
Yes, this brand-name chocolate company has a soft-serve operation in its megamall store, serving two premium flavors: dark chocolate and vanilla, with a swirl option. Add-ons include chocolate and salted caramel sauces. Expect to pay $5.95 for a cup and $6.95 for a waffle cone. Here's a sweet deal: On July 21, in honor of National Ice Cream Day (yes, that's really a thing), Godiva is offering a buy one-get one 50% off deal on soft serve.

MN Nice Cream
This colorful, over-the-top (in a delightful way) Instagram hot spot considers soft serve as a sugar delivery vehicle, laying on the toppings, big time. Flavor-wise, there's chocolate and vanilla, always, along with an ever-changing guest star, with a bonus: The product is made in both lactose-free and vegan formats. The range of toppings is enormous. Think of it this way: If it can be rolled, dipped, sprinkled, drizzled or embedded, it's available. Prices start at $4.
807 NE. Broadway, Mpls., 612-259-7053 and 308 Chestnut St., Stillwater, mnnicecream.com
Penny's Coffee
Along with the excellent crêpes and one of the Twin Cities' great BLTs, the inclusion of a soft-serve ice cream machine is another reason to make a habit of this well-managed coffeehouse/cafe. It's all very uncomplicated — just chocolate, vanilla and a twist of the two, served in cones or cups. No toppings. But on a hot summer's day, doesn't simplicity sometimes take the prize? Prices run $4.25 to $5, and it's not available at the mini-chain's chic downtown Minneapolis location.

The the text of the Gospel here: Mark 13:1-8
God's Revelation: Jesus
When you think of the 2nd coming of Jesus – "The Apocalypse" – what imagines come to mind? Are they images of death, and terror and destruction? Does thinking about this provoke fear, or confidence? Or do you just try not to think about it? The prevailing popular attitude about the "last days" or Jesus 2nd coming seems to be death and complete destruction. Just think of any number of movies or books which have the end of the world as its setting – "Cloud Atlas," "The Book of Eli," even "WALL-E." Death, destruction, terror, fear, suffering – these are all the impression many of us have of the coming apocalypse. And to this we add (taken out of context from the book of Revelation) images of judgment and the (completely unbiblical, but yet very popular) belief in a "rapture" and what we end up with is something that is indeed very terrifying. But the central question that all of this raises is this: How does this then relate to the Gospel of God's love and grace shown forth in the incarnation, passion and resurrection of Jesus? The difficulty with all of this popular fear-mongering is that the apocalyptic emphasis too often crowds out the grace of God and replaces it with judgment and destruction.
This weekend's Gospel text from Mark 13 is a section of the Gospel that is called "The Little Apocalypse." And as we begin to look at this chapter for an answer to our central question I want to start by defining the word "apocalypse." The word is a Greek word that means "Revelation." The title of the last book of the Bible is actually "The Apocalypse of John;" that is, "The Revelation of John." So it is not an event – it is a revelation, an unveiling or uncovering; it is a casting into the light that which is unknown and in darkness." So what then is the revelation of God through Jesus?
Let's turn next to the context of this teaching: Jesus preaching in the Temple during Holy Week. Jesus has already entered into Jerusalem. He has already cleared the money-changers out the temple. He has been going to the temple to teach every day since and his teachings include (in chapter 12) the parable of the wicked tenants, the answer to the question about paying taxes to Caesar, the Great Commandment and last week's pointing to the old woman who puts her whole life into the treasury. And following chapter 13 we move into the story of the passion itself. And as always, following Luther's teaching, we must read this passage not only within the immediate context of the text but also within the context of the Gospel itself.
Now, the temple in Jerusalem was huge and it was grand. The dome was covered with plate gold so that in the sun it was so bright that people could not even look at it. Not only that but the belief was that the Temple was the place where God dwelled. If you wanted to be close to God, or to experience the presence of God, you would go to the temple. "Wow," says the awe-inspired disciples, "this place is amazing!" And Jesus says, "this temple is going to be destroyed and these magnificent stones are all going to be cast down!" And why, because you have placed too much importance and confidence in these stones; because God will not be confined to one place; God's love and grace knows no boundaries.
But as usual the disciples (and Jesus other listeners) cannot connect the dots. They are shocked by the idea that the great Temple could be destroyed. Surely that can't happen because that is where God is! So Peter, Andrew and John question Jesus further about it, "When will this be? How can this happen?" And Jesus' answer is really instructive. He basically tells them – "Those are the wrong questions." All you need to do is to "Keep awake!" The time and place of the last days along with how it will occur are really not your concern. You have other things to do, you have others to care for, you have a calling to follow!
This is the word for us as well. "Keep Awake!" Do not get distracted by those who would use fear to manipulate you, who try to distract you from your call by focusing too much on "last days" and "rapture." Jesus tells us in no uncertain terms not to pay any attention to their lies and nonsense. Instead to bear these things in mind: 1.) We live in a fallen world where there is pain and suffering; 2.) God's love for God's creation is overwhelming; 3.) God's love is shown forth in Jesus whose passion and resurrection demonstrate God's commitment and love and grace; 4.) And Jesus is here with us in the midst of our struggles in the form of the disciples whom he has called to be his hands and feet in the midst of this hurting world.
The amazing and unexpected "apocalypse" or revelation of God is that God's love is so wide and deep that God continues to involved with the creation reaching out in love to all. Our popular imagination logically comes up with destruction and terror – but God's apocalypse is love and grace; so many expect last days to be a time of judgment and death – but God's apocalypse in Jesus is forgiveness and life affirming! God's apocalypse/revelation is not death and destruction – it is life and peace! God's apocalypse is Jesus!
So, our Gospel for today calls for us to continue our pilgrimage, being responsible and devoted disciples of Jesus; doing the ministry God has called on us to do. Recognizing that God is calling us to continue to Baptize disciples, to feed the saints with bread and wine, and to extend the hand of peace and fellowship to all whom we encounter; God calls us to "take up our cross and follow!"

Losing weight doesn't necessarily require sacrifice, sadness, or frustration. We should never give up enjoying food, go hungry, or count calories. What we need to do is learn to eat balanced meals. Additionally, we should know about the diuretic and slimming foods. This way, we can add them to our diets.
In this article, we want to share three natural ingredients that help us to get rid of body fat, and boost a quick weight loss. They also serve as a diuretic and increase our metabolism.
With these, we will be able to use more energy. By using more energy, we will be able to trigger a quick weight loss. The ingredients are lemon, ginger, and chia seeds.
Quick Weight loss foods
Are there foods that help us lose weight? If there are, don't they all have calories?
Yes, they exist, and yes, they have calories, but our bodies use more energy digesting the foods than the foods give us. To add, they have medicinal properties. These can help us lose pounds more easily and in a shorter time.
Lemon is one of the best weight loss foods out there. This fruit has cleansing, alkalizing, and antioxidant properties. All of these are complementary to any diet.
When we are trying to trigger a quick weight loss, lemon helps us digest and eliminate fat in our body. It also helps us fight fluid retention and gives us a feeling of fullness. This is good because it reduces the temptation to snack all hours of the day.
We can use all parts of the lemon. This includes the juice and the peel. Because of this, we recommend you always use organic lemons. That way, you know that they don't have any unwanted pesticides, waxes, or other chemicals.
This exotic food has a spicy and refreshing flavor. It also has the benefit of speeding up our metabolism. This makes it indispensable for burning calories.
Many people can gain weight quickly because they have a slow metabolism. This can be improved through exercise and good habits. However, we should also try to use foods like ginger to speed it up.
Additionally, ginger also regulates blood sugar levels and allows us to naturally control our appetite.
Chia seeds are a great food to help with a quick weight loss diet. They let us lose weight in a healthy way. Chia seeds can help our intestines and can fight constipation. After all, it is good to have a clean colon.
These seeds help us reduce abdominal bloating so that our guts keep things moving. Chia seeds are also full of protein, fiber, and antioxidant compounds. These all make it a great food.
To get the greatest effect, we should let them soak in water a few hours before eating them.
Quick Weight loss recipe
- 1 organic lemon, juiced
- 1 tablespoon (14 g) of chia seeds
- a round of ginger freshly grated OR a tablespoon (2.5 g) of ginger powder
- 2 cups (400 ml) of water
- Stevia to sweeten (optional)
To make this drink, follow these steps:
- The night before, put the chia seeds in the two cups of water.
- The day of, blend the chia seeds together with the lemon juice and the ginger.
- For more benefits, you can add some lemon zest. This part of the lemon has many nutrients the flesh and juice don't.
- Add stevia to sweeten the drink to your taste.
When to drink it
When you have blended the drink and it has a smooth texture, it is ready. Do not strain it.
You should split this drink throughout the day. A good schedule to follow is:
- Breakfast: 1/3 of the drink
- Mid-morning kick: 1/3 of the drink
- Mid-afternoon kick: 1/3 of the drink
You can drink this every day for 15 days. This regimen can be repeated once every three months.

The Venetians have been slow in writing and
publishing their history. Their most ancient monuments are,
1. The rude Chronicle (perhaps) of John Sagorninus, (Venezia, 1765, in octavo), which represents the state and manners of Venice in the year 1008.
2. The larger history of the doge, (1342-1354), Andrew Dandolo, published for the first time in the 12th tom. of Muratori, A.D. 1728.
The History of Venice by the Abbe Laugier (Paris, 1728), is a work of some merit, which I have chiefly used for the constitutional part.

The 58th Annual Grammy Awards took place on Feb. 15, 2016, at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. Here is what this Grammy winner said backstage in the press room.
Winner of:
Best New Artist
You were very emotional in your acceptance speech. What was going through your mind?
I remember pointing to [Epic Records chairman/CEO] L.A. Reid, and I remember crying, and thinking, "Don't snort on TV right now. Get it together. Remember your mom and dad and charm." I forgot a lot of people, but I got the big ones down.
What advice do you have for aspiring songwriters?
Just keep doing it. Every day, write a song. And when you have 200, write 500. And when you have 500, write 1,000. And don't stop writing until you get where you want to be. I wrote a song two days ago. Just keep going.
You have a lot of success now, but can you talk about your struggle to get to where you are?
I struggled a lot with my self, with my confidence. If you have the confidence, you will succeed much faster than you want to. As soon as I started being confident with "All About That Bass," and seeing the song blow up, I knew what I wanted, in that I could keep going and that I could achieve my goals. Confidence is what I struggled with.
Can you talk about what your second album will sound like?
My second album is very different from my first album. It's hard, it's dope, and it's intense. And it's got a little Missy [Elliott] vibe, which you wouldn't expect from a Meghan Trainor girl. So I wanted to show them that I'm changing, my music is changing, and to prove to them I could do it, I got sassy hair.
What was your family's reaction to you winning?
My brothers, they all ran to me in the big hallways of the Staples Center. I saw them, and I was bawling and yelling. I think I lost my voice because I was yelling and crying. They caught me and my parents.
My dad made a toast — we had champagne back there — and he said, "From now on, you'll be introduced as 'Grammy winner' instead of 'Grammy-nominated.'" That was so cool. And my mom just keeps going, "What?" Awesome!
Of your fellow nominees for Best New Artist, who are your favorites?
I love Tori [Kelly] and James Bay. I think [their Grammy Awards performance] was an iconic moment that we will replay for the rest of our lives. I told them when they came off stage, and I said, "You have no idea what you just did."
For the rest of the Grammys, they will bring back than clip and say, "Remember when …" They're like, "No, no." I was like, "That was iconic." They murdered it. They killed it. It was amazing.

Dell and Sam's Club have announced their Black Friday 2016 TV deals. Here are the best Black Friday TV deals so far.
Black Friday 2016 is quickly shaping up this year. Over 25 Black Friday 2016 ads have been published so far. Among the released ads are two that advertise a number of TV deals. The availability of the information of what TV deals are coming later this year helps deal hunters to vet today's Black Friday TV deals.
The Dell Black Friday 2016 Ad and the Sam's Club Black Friday 2016 ad contain TV deals, that set the expectations for this year's Black Friday TV deals. This is true until Best Buy, Target and Amazon announce Black Friday 2016 TV deals. The next major Black Friday ads with TV deals are expected to be released next week after the Presidential election.
The Sam's Club Black Friday 2016 TV deals are starting to be available on November 12. The TV deals offered on November 12 will not come back on the Thanksgiving weekend sale. The best TV deals in the Sam's Club Black Friday sale include:
$124.88 32-inch Vizio D32HNX-E1 HDTV
$299 55-inch JVC LT55UE76 4K TV
$698 60-inch Samsung UN60KU6270FXZA 4K UHD with Samsung Soundbar
$998 70-inch LG 70UH6350 4K UHD Smart TV
$3,498 78-Inch Samsung UN78JS9100 Curved 4K Smart TV
The above deals are our picks of the best TV deals offered by the warehouse membership store. Sam's Club has advertised many more Black Friday TV deals.
Dell is still one of the best kept secrets for Black Friday TV deals. Consumers associate with Dell usually only deals on computers, but Dell offers some of the best Black Friday TV deals each year. Especially the free gift cards make the difference in the Dell Black Friday sale. The advertised Black Friday TV deals in the Dell Black Friday 2016 Ad include:
$299.99 43" LG 43UH6030 4K 120Hz LED HDTV with $30 Gift Card
$599.99 55" Samsung UN55KU6300F 4K 60Hz LED Smart HDTV with $150 Gift Card
$1,999.99 55" LG OLED55B6P OLED 4K 120Hz Smart HDTV with Blu-ray Player and $150 Card
$129.99 32" Vizio D32HNX-E1 720p 60Hz LED HDTV
The released Kohl's Black Friday 2016 Ad advertises a $249.99 49-inch Haier 4K UHD TV is a surprisingly hot doorbuster deal from Kohl's. The bargain 4K TV deal comes with $75 Kohl's Cash, that you can use a week later at Kohl's stores and online for purchases.
The early Black Friday sales already produced interesting TV deals including at $125 32-inch TCL Roku Smart TV and a $999.99 55-inch LG OLED 4K TV. We expect more Black Friday TV deals go on sale before the actual Black Friday.
Amazon offers today a 55-inch TCL 4K Smart TV for $499.99. Amazon is constantly offering new deals on TVs. Find the best deals listed in the Amazon TV Deals.
Black Friday TV deals are each year a big draw for consumers to shop Black Friday. This year there might be even more demand as consumers look to upgrade to a 4K TV that supports that latest HDR standards.
The demand is driven by the availability of HDR support in the Xbox One S and the Sony PS4. Black Friday deals tend to be on older models. It is important to check for HDR10 capability if you look for a future proof 4K TV purchase.
Sam's Club Black Friday 2016 TV deals are a somewhat disappointing in the regard of offering deals on 2016 TVs with HDR10 support. Dell has the same issue, except the LG OLED TV deal. The LG OLED55B6P excels in HDR wth HDR10 and Dolby Vision support.
All Black Friday ads released are featured in the Black Friday 2016 ads list. Find early Black Friday 2016 deals in our recommended early Black Friday sales that are available now. Read the latest Black Friday 2016 news.

CM 06-03 "Can you Count"
I have a special fondness for this stage because it is the first USPSA stage I ever shot. I came late to my first McHenry IPSC match, with a totally new GLOCK 22 .40 and the crappiest leather holster known to man and mags in my pockets. At first they weren't going to let me shoot the match, but Albert and Jerry G took me under their wings and helped get me squared away.
Here are the results from my first rodeo! I ran it in ~22 seconds with all alphas!
Later on, in October of 2009, we ran the stage again and I did better: 10 seconds still with all alphas! In two years, I had saved ~12 seconds - kinda funny, 5 seconds for every year?
The last time we ran this stage was on December 16th, 2010, another year later. By this point I was dry firing almost every day and getting decent with my magazine changes... I had saved another 3 seconds, overall, running it in 7 with change. (Still all alphas.)
This stage is pretty awesome to me - I'm constantly dry-firing the stage at home, working on the draw, the reload, the splits. We ran a slightly modified version of the stage for grins the other night in practice and I shot better than I ever had in my life, posting .17's splits like they were butter and slamming 1.15 changes like no tomorrow... (In the past years, I've had to work really hard to get my splits under .20s - def. a result of working every day with the SIRT pistol...)
The stage is VERY difficult in scoring - to get a 90%, you need to be turning in 3.30 string, which means perfect draw, perfect reload, no trigger freeze and no hesitation!
The good news is that they'll be running this at the WIIT this coming weekend - wondering how I'll do!
Labels: interesting, matches, uspsa

Three former AssetCo plc executives excluded
08 August 2018
The FRC has announced the exclusion from the accountancy profession of three former executives of AssetCo plc. A disciplinary tribunal found they had committed misconduct in relation to the preparation and approval of the companys financial statements for the years 2009 and 2010.
Asset Co was an AIM-listed fire and rescue services business that provided fire engines to the London Fire Brigade. As a result of the misconduct AssetCo substantially restated its financial statements in 2011 (£146m reduction in assets, £25m reduction in profit), and significant loss was caused by the collapse in the share price from 60 p to 1.75p.
The dishonest conduct of management was concealed, by FRC opened its investigation in late 2014.
A total of 27 allegations of misconduct came before the tribunal. On top of findings of dishonesty and failings to act with integrity, objectivity and competence, they also misled the auditors Grant Thornton.
Former CEO John Shannon has now been excluded for 16 years and fined £250,000, CFO Raymond Frank Flynn for 14 years with a £150,000 fine, and financial controller Matthew Boyle for 12 years with a £100,000 fine.

Dräger, an international leader in safety and medical technology, has welcomed Rachel Gater to the team.
The appointment comes as part of the company's expansion which has seen it more than double its workforce in the past five years.
Gater has been appointed as training commercial manager working for Dräger Marine & Offshore in Aberdeen, where she is responsible for working with customers across the UK and Europe, specialising in safety solutions for the offshore marine markets.
Born and bred in Aberdeen, Gater, 25, completed three years working for a leading oil and gas company as a survival, marine and medical instructor, where she learned specialist skills in delivering offshore training.
Prior to joining Dräger, she also worked for another safety specialist for a short spell where she specialised in product training.
In the short space of time since she joined Dräger, Gater has already travelled thousands of miles to spread the safety message, including trips to Norway, Germany and Blyth, Northumberland to deliver bespoke training packages.
No two days are the same for the new recruit. She comments, "Every day is different at Dräger and that's what I like. One day I can be working on internal audits, the next, I can be working face-to-face with customers on leg entry training."
Speaking on her appointment, Gater said, "I am absolutely thrilled to be part of such an established and well-respected team which has such a diverse product range. I spent my first day with the team in Blyth and they really made me feel a part of the team straight away."
"Short-term in my new role, I would like to support the team, establish myself within the company and build good working relationships."
"Long-term, I would like to extend and develop the training provision across the oil and gas industry, extend our customer base and continue to provide a service that is second-to-none."
Gater's role today involves helping workers train safely and efficiently by following risk assessments and lesson plans.
However while she started out on a rather different path, studying for a nursing degree at Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen, it soon became clear that her skills were transferable to the offshore sector.
She said, "Safety is very important to me personally as it reminds me every day just how fragile human life is and how quickly it can be taken away. No price is too great when it comes to human life and shortcuts can never be made."
Phil Saxton, General Manager at Dräger Marine and Offshore, said, "We are delighted to welcome Rachel to the team. Her experience and understanding of the industry ensures she will be a great addition here at Dräger as we continue to work with businesses on a regional, national and global scale to deliver technology for life."

My God. I think I checked off every single one of these. Check out this post at Electronic Village: You Know You're Black in Corporate America When…
Thanx for the link-love!
peace, Villager
That was a trip….can you say 'Church'!!
Honestly, I don't know sean. Maybe I am naive, or maybe it is because I am not like that, but I just don't see that happening as much anymore. Maybe I am crazy. But I just don't think this is a color issue completely, women get it, people who are nerdy or very driven who have no personality, and I know me saying all of this will make many people annoyed and think other thoughts, but it is almost offensive, I can't explain it. Maybe that is because I don't treat people differenly based on their skin color but by who they are. Ok, I am off of my soapbox.
So? DO black people tan??? :>

New Oklahoma Law Makes Any Trace of Marijuana a Possible DUI Offense
A recent change in Oklahoma law means that people who smoke marijuana and then drive a motor vehicle even weeks later can be arrested and convicted for driving under the influence.
House Bill 1441, signed into law by Gov. Fallin on May 31, adds a new paragraph to the state law governing DUIs. The language says that it is unlawful for a person to operate a motor vehicle who "has any amount of a Schedule I chemical or controlled substance … in the person's blood, saliva, urine or any other bodily fluid…" Schedule 1 substances include marijuana, heroin and LSD.
The penalty for one's first DUI offense is up to 1 year in jail and up to a $1,000 fine.
Regarding alcohol, the law requires a blood or breath concentration of 0.08 to be considered DUI, but the law now allows zero tolerance of a driver who has any trace of marijuana in one's system.
Before the change, it was illegal to drive under the influence "of any intoxicating substance" than "render[ed] such person incapable of safely driving or operating a motor vehicle." There is now no such requirement to show that a person's driving ability was actually impaired to obtain a conviction.
Attorney Adam Banner, whose practice includes DUI defense, writes on his law blog that the new law is "ridiculous."
"This is a ridiculous position to take, and it has received a great deal of backlash from the criminal-defense community. The effects of marijuana are not long lasting, and by no means would there be impairment days, weeks, or months, after infestation or inhalation. … This brings up a ton of issues with interstate travel and due process."
I think it is important to note, as the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs points out, that marijuana today is up to 30 times stronger (in its concentration of the psychoactive chemical THC) than the pot people were smoking back in the 1960s-1980s.
It is also fair to point out that some opponents of the law may be exaggerating about how long marijuana stays in a person's system. According to one manufacturer of drug testing equipment, a one-time use of marijuana can be detected in a person's saliva for up to 12 hours and in one's urine for up to 6 days. Only frequent and heavy users are likely to have traces of marijuana for several weeks after the last use. And yes, there's a concern about frequent and heavy pot smokers climbing behind the wheel of a car.
The states are widely divided in their positions on marijuana use, with Oklahoma clearly on the conservative side of the fence. Eighteen states now allow for the legal use of marijuana for medical reasons, and six more are considering such laws. Meanwhile, 11 states have laws like Oklahoma's that allow zero tolerance for driving with any trace of marijuana in one's system.
Interestingly enough, NORML, an organization that promotes the legalization of pot, claims that marijuana is Oklahoma's 3rd largest cash crop, right behind wheat and hay.
Maybe the most important statistic in this debate is this one from U.S. News and World Report. One in 5 teen drivers admits to driving under the influence of marijuana. Some Oklahoma teens who do not keep up with the news are likely to learn about our state's new zero-tolerance policy the hard way. I hope not. I encourage parents and educators to spread the word about the new law.
Have you experienced personal injury or the loss of a loved one due to an auto, truck or motorcycle accident that involved drunk driving, driving under the influence of drugs or speeding? If so, you need experienced legal representation right away. Contact the Oklahoma car accident lawyers of Hasbrook & Hasbrook immediately for a free consultation.

Using Geppetto
Geppetto is used to set up fully animated characters in Lumberyard, in preparation for use with either custom game code to select, play, and blend animations, or with the Mannequin animation controller system. In Geppetto you build a character by associating one or more skinned models with an animation skeleton (built in a DCC like 3DS Max or Maya), and specifying a list of animations (built in a DCC like 3DS Max or Maya) to use with that character.
Animations can also be combined together into blend spaces, which are collections of similar animations that can smoothly blend together to vary travel speed, turning speed, travel angle, slope, turn angle, and travel distance. Blend spaces allow you to easily author natural, complex locomotion for characters. You can use Geppetto to add attachments to the character, such as weapons or other props, including physically simulated attachments that are connected by springs, pendulums, and strings of joints, allowing you to model clothing attachments, capes, and large scale movement of hair. Geppetto also allows you to preview animations and blends between animations on the characters you define, set compression settings for game ready animation data, and compare compressed and uncompressed animations.
To access Geppetto from Lumberyard Editor, choose Tools, Geppetto. Geppetto has the following UI:
A. Viewport window
Displays the loaded character. Use the WASD keyboard keys for movement and the right mouse button for camera rotation.
B. Assets pane
Lists all character assets, skeletons, animations, and compression settings. Each asset item has a context menu with available options. When an asset is selected, its properties are displayed in the Properties panel.
There are multiple ways to filter the tree in the Assets panel:
By name. It is possible to specify multiple strings separated by a space to look for substrings. For example,
walk relaxedlooks for any name that contains both "walk" and "relaxed".
By type
Using advanced filtering options, like presence of events or location of file.
You can have multiple instances of the Assets window open. To create a new instance, choose Split Pane Assets navigation bar.
C. Scene Parameters panel
This panel is used for previewing purposes and consists of the following:
Character name – Used to select and load a new character by clicking the folder icon. When a character is loaded, you can use the button to select a CDF so you don't have to locate it in the Assets tree every time.
Animation Layers – Location where the played animations are set up. Whenever you select an animation in the Assets panel, one is assigned to the active animation layer, which is highlighted with bold text. Add new animation layers using the button next to it. Remove animation layers through the context menu. Blend spaces, aimposes, and lookposes expose additional settings.
Blend shape – Shows blend shape sliders when the character contains blend shapes.
Audio Setup – Used to preview sound foleys and footsteps.
Run Feature Test – Used to add and run project-specific tests.
D. Properties panel
Lists character definitions, skeleton, and animation properties.
E. Playback panel
Displays the animation timeline and playback options, such as looping and speed.
All panels can be moved and are dockable.
Because hot reloading of character-related assets is not supported in Lumberyard Editor, you need to close and restart Lumberyard Editor if you modify any characters that pre-exist in a level. This is not necessary for characters that later spawn into a level. This does not apply if you are previewing changes in Geppetto.

A canon is not a static list of dead white men. It's an assertion of who from the past can speak to the present, and its shape is always up for negotiation. "Valentin de Boulogne: Beyond Caravaggio," a big Baroque blast of a show at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is the first exhibition anywhere devoted to a French painter whose theatrically lit tableaus of musicians, cardsharps and saints now stand in slight obscurity. It is also, quite explicitly, an application for canon membership, a full-throated bid to place Valentin (1591-1632) alongside Jusepe de Ribera and Georges de La Tour as a pioneer of the early 17th century.
With 45 of his 60 extant works, including a whopper of an altarpiece from the Vatican and every single one of his works in the Louvre's holdings, you have the evidence before you, and you may, especially if Baroque drama is not your thing, find him a mere follower of an earlier genius. Or, like me, you may be overcome by Valentin, and find in his dark vision truths about our own lives, our pleasures and our shortcomings.
A Valentin show has been a longtime dream of Keith Christiansen, who leads the Met's European paintings department and who has organized this exhibition with the French art historian Annick Lemoine. Its subtitle, "Beyond Caravaggio," may be a marketer's necessity to win attention for a less famous artist, though it sets the exhibition's stakes. There is nothing by Caravaggio in this exhibition, but his influence and example permeate the Frenchman's art, and you'll need to know something about him and his devotees to fully adjudge Valentin's invention. (Next week, the National Gallery in London is opening its own show, "Beyond Caravaggio," which places Valentin among a trans-European tradition of Baroque naturalism.)
Caravaggio was the leading painter in Rome at the turn of the 17th century. His two grand paintings of St. Matthew, done in 1600 for the church of San Luigi dei Francesi, shocked an older generation but made younger artists swoon. When he bailed town in 1606 — he went on the run after murdering a pimp — he left behind a generation of young painters who emulated his tight cropping, bold light and taste for flesh. Three paintings by other Caravaggisti, as his followers were called, open this show, and the best is a scene by Bartolomeo Manfredi (circa 1582-1622), in which Christ wields a cat-o'-nine-tails on slack-mouthed merchants.
Valentin spent his whole career in Rome. He got there from France no later than 1614, and his early paintings display a Caravaggesque taste for low life in the holy city. Soldiers play dice, cheat at cards. Young men play music while getting drunk and eyeing up Gypsies. A young military man offers his palm to a fortune teller while robbers ply him with wine. The figures' buttery flesh and midaction positioning make these genre scenes uncannily lifelike, and Valentin's religious pictures, too, relinquish sacred precision for the realities of the flesh. In "Christ and the Adulteress" (circa 1618-22), Pharisees in contemporary armor look every which way as the accused woman's bodice droops down, and Jesus kneels in the dirt. A painting of John the Baptist, half-naked beneath a flowing red mantle, is probably a self-portrait of Valentin: young, mustachioed, beautiful and on the make.
Like Caravaggio, Valentin lived fast and died young, succumbing at 41 to fever after a night of binge drinking that ended in a fountain. He belonged to a hell-raising confraternity of artists known as the Bentvueghels — "birds of a feather" in Dutch — whose motto celebrated the pleasures of "Bacco, tabacco e Venere": drinking, smoking and sex. Like Caravaggio, too, he refused to make preparatory drawings, relying instead on the innovative practice of painting from live models. You'll see favorites recur as you work through this show. A man cast as a pensive Joseph in a 1624-26 painting re-emerges later in a grand allegory, sporting a longer beard and a rug of chest hair.
The difference from his paragon, especially in the paintings after 1620, is in the darkness. For Caravaggio, chiaroscuro — the contrast of light and dark — was principally a painterly conceit, a means of bringing drama to altarpieces like "The Calling of St. Matthew" (1599-1600) or "Seven Acts of Mercy" (1607). The darkness in Valentin's mature painting, by moving contrast, is pervaded with a melancholy absent in Caravaggio, a haze of lost love and the certainty of death. At the Met, a single, heart-stopping gallery contains six large paintings with musical motifs, and in all of them the parties ache with a worldly regret. Sitting at tables or castoff blocks of Roman marble, soldiers stare into space as musicians strum lutes or beat tambourines. Two paintings featured depressive violists who look down as they aimlessly bow their instruments. Valentin's nights out in Rome may have been dissolute, but the nights he painted are suffused with pain.
Rome in the early 17th century was no honeymoon destination. It was a fetid, debauched, wildly unequal metropolis where starving artists hustled for commissions — Valentin got one of his largest from a diamond thief who used art to launder money — and where painterly disputes were settled with rapiers. In this show's catalog, the art historian Patrizia Cavazzini provides a bulging register of artists brawling in taverns, and even, after Caravaggio's example, indulging in a little light murder. Valentin's own roommate, a sculptor, was stabbed to death in 1626. This was not a place suited to the lofty perfection of the High Renaissance, nor even to the moralizing of contemporary Dutch genre painting. Death was everywhere, and that put life on canvas into a more plangent key.
Toward the end of his short life Valentin got his most important commission, for an altar of the recently completed St. Peter's Basilica. He painted a barnstorming composition of the martyrdom of the saints Processus and Martinian, whose nude bodies, splayed on the rack, bisect a deluge of torturers, mourners and angels. Its vertical collision of saints and seraphim strongly echoes Caravaggio's "Seven Acts of Mercy," and here, too, the high drama of holy suffering is tinged with the violence of the Roman street. At the time, Valentin's altarpiece was contrasted unfavorably with one by Poussin, another Frenchman in Rome, whose cleaner finishes and bows to antiquity had come into fashion. The rest is canon formation: Valentin became a mere follower, when he was so much more.
The altarpiece is a wildly accomplished work of art, but to modern eyes the most immediate pictures in this momentous exhibition are those melancholy musical paintings, and one in particular. An allegory of the four ages of man, painted around 1628, depicts in a diamond arrangement a boy with a bird cage, a youth with a lute, a grown man with a book, and an elder with a drink. They're all downcast, reflective, awash in sad thoughts. The man with the book seems skeptical of learning, the boy fiddling with the cage wonders about the meaning of freedom. The mustachioed lutenist plays despite his sorrows, and he looks a lot like John the Baptist in the earlier painting: a lot, that is, like Valentin himself. This world is vanity, but he plays all the same.

This document lists nations in this world and information about them including their leaders. The planet consists of two large continents then lots of islands.
The Empire of Quartios
Government: Feudal Monarchy
Ruler: The Emperor

The Alliance
Government: None
Ruler: Member Nations
The Alliance exists to hold the world in check against the Empire's forces> it was developed by the nations on the second continent save for Hentori and Okinawa; the two largest nations on the continent. It was only after the destruction of the Hentori Capital that the remaining royalty of the nation joined the Alliance. Upon this and the Empire declaring War on Okinawa they also joined the Alliance.
Government: Oligarch Democracy
Rulers: The Aki Family
Hentori is an environmentally stunning nation full of lush forests, farm land, mountains and water. Hentori is beautiful. It has the second largest Air Fleet aside from the Empire and is very honorable. The Nation of Hentori is the first of its kind on this world; it created peace in its region and it's government was and it well liked. The Royal Family does not tend to involve itself in international affairs; as such it also has a very large amount of trade because of its capitalist society. Hentori is a small nation but is well known because of its influence, military size, amount in its treasury and wealth of the citizenry over all.
Government: Unknown
Ruler: Unknown
Not much is known about Okinawa aside form that it is large and very powerful. Few other nations compare to Okinawa.
Aside from the nations listed above there are not many other nations, most of t h em are members of the Alliance and have little or no standing military.

Tampa Dog Bite Lawyer Discusses What to Do if You Were Bitten by a Dog
If you're bitten by a dog there's important information you need to get from the owner. First of all if the dog has it's shots, secondly you may want to report the information to animal protective services, they may want to come out and do an investigation and oftentimes that's very helpful to the lawyer if animal protective services comes out and does an investigation. They'll look into the history of the dog, where the dog came from, whether it was involved in any other incidents where it bit someone, whether the dog has vicious propensities, where the dog owner got the dog, how long he'd had the dog, and whether he was aware of the vicious propensities. So oftentimes animal protective services can be very helpful to the lawyer in prosecuting the case for the dog bites.
This video was provided by Dennis Morgenstern, an experienced Tampa Dog Bite Lawyer.

My usage will include LR/PS, Logic DAW (modest projects) And possibly a little video editing, but nothing serious. The rest will be everyday stuff and some website work.

Any advice would be welcome.
