Tesorio is reimagining the way cash flows between businesses.
Tesorio helps companies save money by offering their vendors an opportunity to get paid earlier on invoices in exchange for a small discount. Vendors like this because instead of getting paid in 30, 60 or 90 days, they get paid faster.
Tesorio uses dynamic discounting, whereby their platform calculates a financial rate that appeals to both buyers and suppliers.
Ultimately their goal is to leverage analytics to develop innovative self-financing solutions that benefit a wide range of businesses.

I'm teaching Church History again this year, and alongside my work in the course I've decided to read through Jaroslav Pelikan's five-volume The Christian Tradition: A History of the Development of Doctrine. As I write this morning, I've only just begun.
In the initial book of the series, Pelikan discusses early Christianity through the first six centuries AD. While he does so, he addresses the culture within which much of the young religion arose: the late classical world. To this end he writes the following:
The victory of orthodox Christian doctrine over classical thought was to some extent a Pyrrhic victory, for the theology that triumphed over Greek philosophy has continued to be shaped ever since by the language and the thought of classical metaphysics (44).
Christian theology as we know it, in other words, was profoundly touched and affected by outside forces fairly early on. Such a statement might elicit a number of responses. Some might deny that it is true, assuming that every bit of the Church's teaching is exactly how the Apostles framed it. Others, taking a typically modern perspective, might decry such additions and seek to purify the faith by removing them. Postmoderns by contrast may simply yawn, asserting that since there is no such thing as "true" Christianity and that the faith has always been first defined through the lens of cultural metanarratives, there is no point in trying to discover what the earliest Christians believed.
As a Christian historian, I find myself in the midst of these questions when I consider the early Church. It would be nice to assert, as per the first position, that Christian theology has always been understood by the Church in the same way. While I would assert that one can trace a stream of orthodoxy through the centuries, even the most basic read of history reveals that the way the Church has reflected upon the "deposit of faith" has changed over time.
What of the second position? Well, I am an historian. I am interested in digging into the past. The lure of understanding what the earliest believers understood about their faith is there. I am reading the first volume of Pelikan's work, after all. But even so, I'm not ready to jettison all the nuance time and space have given to Christian doctrine and the language we have used to describe it in favor of some nascent and (likely) historically irretrievable genesis. If it is possible to understand Christian theology completely untouched by the Roman world, we will still be understanding it from only one point of view and–unless new sources are available–likely incomplete and in need of further explication. Besides, in the process of understanding it from our perspective, we might very well be doing the same kind of culturally-conditioned doctrinal alterations that proponents of this position would decry in the first place.
All of this points towards those holding the third, more relativist position. Clearly this has its appeal. Christianity is and has always been shaped by its historical and cultural location: first in the Jewish world, then in the Greco-Roman world, and on and on. This to me is a largely agreeable line of thought. But then there's more. With so many kinds of Christianities–both in Antiquity and today–it is easy to give in to the belief that it is all subjective. There is an almost nihilism in the furthest extremes of this position. If none of it matters ultimately, why does any of it matter? Is heresy really heresy or just another "version?" As an orthodox Christian historian, I have a difficult time with some of this thinking.
History as a discipline, aware as it is of the many narratives in which we are involved, still carries with it a certain connection to objectivity. I often feel this pull as I engage in my work. There is an actual historical record with which we have to deal, and the investigation of said record reveals both details and insight even as it bounds us. It tells us, I believe, that there are some basic things about Christianity that have persisted from the earliest days. It also reveals how doctrine has developed and changed over time. To admit what Pelikan does in the quotation above is simply to state a fact. How we interact with such facts vis-a-vis the three positions I've laid out is up to us.
Christianity has been influenced by the world(s) in which it has lived. That's a fact. But it is Christianity that has been influenced. The Church's lively debates, factions, reforms, and reframing over time have always been with reference to the core ideas–and Person–around which it is based. Though articulated very differently, I believe these can still be discernibly Christian.

This is the only medication I have used which stops this condition and allows me to have a mostly normal resperatatory function with a loss of taste and smell and a mild congestion in my throat. I'm now starting to have side effects from this medication which includes: hot flashes, weight gain, hives, and some blurred vision.

I did 3 days of IV steroids starting April 26th, and have been on the
taper since. My doctor gave me all kinds of medicines to take along with the prednisone. Ok, only two, but for someone who hates to take medicine that's a lot LOL I've taken prilosec everyday to prevent tummy troubles. Also, I've been taking a sleeping pill each night. I can take one or two, and up till this past week I've pretty much taken 2. I also take gabapentin every night, usually 300 or 400mg.

After the surgery I started to develop what I thought was a cold. However after about a week I was unable to smell or
anything at all. I called my allergist and he put me on an antibiotic and prednisone (steroid). It has been ten days and I have not recovered. I still cannot really smell very well or taste, and I have several swollen glands in my neck. Do you think this is a side effect of anesthia, and will it eventually go away?

Are you taking
because of your loss of
and smell, I wonder? If so, I would be a little concerned (actually, more than a little) that a powerful drug (which an oral steroid is) was being used to take aim at a symptom that it was might not be capable of hitting. It may be that your taste and smell problems, assuming that they can be reversed, will be taken care of as your thyroid problem is brought under control.

Yeah, the

The RAI sometimes will stir-up thyroid proteins, increasing the immune system attack in Graves patients and less commonly in patients treated for nodular thyroid. The taste buds can be off for a few weeks - this will recover -- sour candies may help stimulate salivation/taste. The hives will improve as the thyroid becomes ablated by the RAI -- prednisone may be necesary for a short-term.

Funny Idea
Not bad. I had a bit of trouble at the beginning trying to descern wether the story was accurately Bible based or the imagination of the author. Perhaps it would have been good to have this stated at the beginning or maybe stretch the humor even more so that it being a parody of sorts is apparent from the start. Great addition to the Portal.
That was gruesomly done, the violence that is, and the graphics were very nicely done, overall it was a very good and humourous flash, the voice overs were ver well done aswell dude :P
I can't approve of the God bashing...
But that was pretty damn funny!
dude your right i never heard this story in chruch lol...lol omg it was funny sh!T lol.....never call anyone a bald guy,lol or you will be mauld by bears lol....nice moral to the story...this needs to be on the front page i loved it lol..
ya i agree wit the last guy

Daniel - Poker Journal
Teaching Patrick Props18 Mar 2007
I've really been itching to play poker recently and since I'm home for a bit before my next tournament I thought I'd head down to the Bellagio since I got word that there would be a game.
My sleep schedule is a complete mess right now as I'm waking up at around 4:00pm each day and getting to bed early in the morning. While that sucks normally it worked out well for me on this night since the game was set to get started at 11:00pm and it looked like most of the guys were willing to play until morning.
The game was $2000-$4000 Hold'em, Omaha H/L, Stud, Stud H/L, Stud H/L Regular, 2-7 triple draw, Pot Limit Omaha, 2-7 single draw NL, and Chinese Poker. Lots of fun games in there.
For the early part of the night I was doing very well in the limit games, up probably about 70,000 before losing the following hand that sent me in a tailspin:
Pot Limit Omaha, Jennifer limped for 1000, David limped for 1000, Patrick folded the small blind, and I raised 3500 more from the BB with As Ac 10c 8h. Jennifer and David both called, so there was now $14,000 in the pot. Since we were playing $2000-$4000 rather than $4000-$8000 the cap was only $60,000 so as long as the flop wasn't too ugly for my hand I was prepared to go with it. The flop came 9s 7s 3c.
That's not a great flop for me, but it's a pretty good flop since I have the As which means no one else could have the nut flush draw. I also had an open ended straight draw of my own. I bet the pot, and David called.
The turn was the 4s and there was now $42,000 in the pot and I could bet up to the pot and that would be the end of the betting for the hand since we play with a cap of $60,000. I didn't love the card obviously, but since I had the As I felt like I should bet it in the hopes of getting David off of a straight or a flush.
I bet $25,000 and David thought for a while. He could only raise me an additional $16,500, but if he did that, I'd have no choice but to fold my hand. After a while he finally said, "All right, cap it." Doh! I couldn't even call the last $16,500, but I still think I played the hand very well. David actually had QQ22 with spades. If I bet the cap myself I think he would have called anyway, so betting the $25,000 saved me $16,500 I think.
Right after that I got caught on two consecutive bluffs in 2-7 Single Draw NL. I had trips in my hand and re-raised David from the button. Ralph Perry called and David said cap it...oops.
Two hands later I was dealt 2-3-3-3-10 and decided to "snow" again, making it $5000. Jennifer called and so did David from the BB. David drew two cards, I stood pat, and Jennifer took one.
David checked and I decided to make a bet that looked like I wanted a call, I bet $15,000. Jennifer studied for a long time, before finally calling me with 9-6-5-4-2. Even though I got caught, I still think I was a little unlucky there. If Jennifer missed her hand, that's a favorite to happen, I would have gotten away with it.
A few hands later I drew to 2-3-6-7 and made a pair. Before I knew it, my profit was gone and I was down about $80,000. I only started with $100,000 and anted off to about $5500 left. I could get more money, but decided to be a little goofy and play it like a tournament. I went all in four times, winning each time, and before I knew it I was even again, lol.
It was an enjoyable session. David and Eli were playing props and were teaching Patrick how to play. Since the last time I played props they added several new wrinkles including "7's" and "Kings." Patrick's props were similar to mine so I didn't play.
One about the first round of play a flop came 10-5-5. After the hand was over I said, "So no one hit that prop?" David and Eli looked at me like, "Shut your trap!" Patrick slept his Q-10-5 prop. Oh well, that's the kind of thing that happens when you are just learning and there isn't a human alive who hasn't slept a prop once in a while.
While the props was being played, especially with a "new guy" it really slowed the game down to a halt. Every hand was paused and there was bickering back and forth, "That was my King on the last flop and I hit the stiff jack here for doubles."
"That wasn't the last flop, the King hit the flop before that. The last flop was Q-10-4."
"No it wasn't."
"Yes it was."
"No man, are you crazy? The last flop was.... what like K...something."
"I'm telling you it wasn't."
"Jennifer, what was your up card last hand?"
"Huh? Um, it was the Qh."
"You see, I'm telling you the King was the flop before, you are not on for doubles."
"Ok, whatever. I still think it was, but whatever."
That dialogue, or one very similar to that would happen each and every hand.
Despite it all, I was really having a good time playing, especially the hi-lo games. I think my "best game" is Stud 8 or better followed closely by Omaha 8 or better. I enjoy the added variables the game offers as opposed to Hold'em which I often find rather monotonous and boring. With the other games there are more cards, more possibilities, more interesting moves and math problems. The other games keep me thinking while hold'em just doesn't do that for me as much.
I especially like playing hi-lo games short handed, four or less. I think my edge in those games is heightened when there are less players at the table since in a ring game, a more mechanical approach is required. Short handed hi-lo, though, is a game where lots of hands are playable which makes for even more difficult decisions. I love it.
As much as I love what's happened with poker over the last few years with the rise of no limit hold'em, I hope poker goes back to the beautiful game that it once was with people playing all sorts of games. The new World Championship of Poker, the $50,000 HORSE event is an excellent step in the right direction.
I predict, and I hope I'm right, that poker will start to head back into that direction and not be so hold'em dominated. If all you play is hold'em, you are missing out. No question about it. No limit hold'em is a complete bore in comparison to a good HORSE game. At least for me it is.
After an 8 hour session where I didn't swing all that much I ended the night +$19,000. If it wasn't for the no/pot limit games, I probably would have won close to $200,000.
Having said that, I enjoyed playing PLO with Patrick and David. Early in the morning it was just the three of us playing and I learned a lot about the game from them. They are clearly much better PLO players than I am so I looked at those rounds as learning experiences, clearly feeling like an underdog.
In the hi-lo games and triple draw, I felt like I was in complete control and had a significant edge which balances things out a little bit. In the current mix that we played, barring the Chinese Poker this is where I'd rank the games as far as my strengths go:
1. Stud H/L
2. Omaha H/L
3. 2-7 Triple Draw
4. Limit Hold'em
5. Stud H/L Regular
6. 7 Card Stud
7. Pot Limit Omaha
8. 2-7 No Limit Single Draw
For years, before the poker boom, we routinely played in games that were predominantly hi-lo games and triple draw, often having no hold'em or stud in the mix. I was playing anywhere from $200-$400 to $400-$800 at the time and I learned a lot from those years of grinding it out. I miss playing mixed games, especially in the tournaments.
I'm happy to see more of the events I like at the upcoming WSOP and I feel great about my chances to not only win the HORSE event, but also to win a bracelet in one of the many other non-hold'em events. With the schedule the way it is now, I don't think I'll be playing many of the no limit hold'em events, instead opting for the limit hold'em and hi-lo events where I have an even better chance for success.
Tomorrow I'm doing an all day shoot at Venetian for a project that I'm working on. It's an early morning call and will take us through till late that night. Then on Wednesday I'll be back at Venetian for another full day of shooting.
Cheap Thieves Update: In a previous blog I told you about my one true love, my fantasy hockey pool. Well, I won my first round series against the #1 seed in my conference 4 games to 2 and am now in the conference final against the Red Ravens. I won the first two games of the series, and despite an excellent effort in game 3 and a hat trick from Alexander Semin, the Red Ravens came up huge and won game 3. I think this series will go at least six games as I have a terrible lineup for game 4, but he has a bad lineup for game 5.
My next tournament will either be in Reno then Foxwoods or Monte Carlo for the EPT final. I haven't made any final decisions yet although I'm leaning towards Monte Carlo if I can make it work. There may be a few obstacles with me making it down there but I should know soon.

Lausanne, Switzerland / Athens, Greece (GenevaLunch) – The Olympic torch has been lit in Athens for the 2010 Winter Games that open in January in Vancouver, Canada. The torch will fly to Victoria, British Colombia in Canada 29 October and from there it will begin its trek around Canada's 13 provinces and territories, a voyage of 45,000 km with 12,000 torchbearers. The national relay is the longest in Olympic history.
The torch relay begins just days after the UN General Assembly adopted the Olympic Truce Resolution for the Vancouver Games.
UN member States are "invited" to "observe and promote peace during Games time in order to protect the interests of athletes and sport in general, and to contribute, through sport, to the quest for peaceful and diplomatic solutions to the world's conflicts," the Lausanne-based International Olympic Committee notes.
The medals for the 2010 Winter Games were shown for the first time 15 October. They are circular in shape and based on a large master artwork of an orca whale by Corrine Hunt, a Canadian artist of Komoyue and Tlingit heritage. Each of the medals has a unique hand-cropped section of the abstract art, making every medal one-of-a-kind.

West Brook beats Ozen at Beaumont Bowl
Published 11:18 pm, Saturday, August 31, 2013
The Ozen Panthers played host to the West Brook Bruins Saturday at the Carrol A. "Butch" Thomas Educational Support Stadium for the 2013 Beaumont Bowl. Ozen may have played host, but Bruins played the victor over the Panthers 42-21.
As expect neither team disappointed as West Brook running back Justin Hervey opened with a 49-yard run following an Ozen punt on the Bruins first play of the game. Hervey finished off the drive with a one-yard touchdown run. Didn't take long for the Ozen Panthers Javaris Curl to heat up their offense, when he scampered 66 yards for a touchdown on a quarterback draw to knot the game up at 7. It was a mere 18 seconds later and Hervey struck gold with a 69-yard touchdown run of his own to put the Bruins back on top with just 1:32 left in the first quarter.
Both teams tried to get the passing game going in a rocky start to the second quarter, as both teams exchanged one fumble after another, with 3 fumbles in 21 seconds. The Bruins continued to go with what was working and that was the legs of Hervey. Quarterback Isaac Aubrey was able to find a hole in the Ozen defense when he hit DeMarcus Smith on a screen pass that went for 19 yards and a touchdown. Bruins went to the locker rooms leading 21-7 at the half, thanks in part to the running of Hervey who had two touchdowns and rushed for 192 yard in the first half alone.
It did not take Justin Hervey long to pick up where he left off, within a flash, just 40 seconds into the second half Hervey bolted through the middle for a 52-yard touchdown run. Ozen was quick to answer as Javaris Curl marched the Panthers down the field where he hit DeMarko Williams for a 3-yard touchdown pass. The Ozen Defense began to step up in the third and halted the Bruins on several drives. They attempted to get back into the game as Curl tossed a 21-yard pass to Ronnie Caesar to pull Ozen within seven points.
The relentless Bruins kept pounding the rock and Hervey garnered two more touchdowns in the fourth. Justin Hervey was the story of the night as he sprinted for 270 yards on 30 carries and five touchdowns. Javaris Curl of Ozen though did not let his story go untold as he threw for 75 yards and 2 touchdowns and picked up 142 yards rushing. Including his 66 yard touchdown run early in the game. Ronnie Ceasar chipped in with 51 yards rushing and 4 receptions for 21 yards and touchdown. West Brook now will prepare to face another cross-town rival Central next week, and Ozen will need a game plan as they play Port Arthur Memorial.

The Goebel administration moves to Bad Staffelstein
The Goebel Factory Outlet remains in Roedental
By the end of May 2016 the complete administration of Goebel has moved from Roedental to Bad Staffelstein. The Goebel Showroom where regional in-house exhibitions and larger meetings take place was in Bad Staffelstein already for some time.
This move did not come unexpectedly. The mother company of Goebel, PM Capital, possesses there with the premises of Kaiser Porzellan large-scale own property with about 60.000 m2 buildings and ground area. The office building in Coburger Strasse 7 was rent only from Schulze Immobilien GmbH & Co. KG.
The move of the national and international orientated functions of the Goebel company, however, does not reduce their commitment to Roedental and the Coburg region. The factory outlet with its more than 400 m2 sales area will remain in Roedental also in future. The warehouse and shipping functions of Goebel have for some years already been executed by D+S Logistik in Neustadt and will be handled there also in future. D+S on their part have rented areas on the premises of Kaiser in Bad Staffelstein.
The about 50 staff members of Goebel from Coburg, Roedental and surroundings working in the administration as well as the staff members of the subsidiary Global Supply Management GmbH will now have their desks in Bad Staffelstein with view onto the Staffelberg. With the relocation of the administration, the purchasing and the sales department the integration of Goebel's activities in the PM Capital Group are now also spatially finished.
Goebel will start production again in the rooms of the Kaiser Porzellan company. The manufactory will concentrate on smaller series. For this purpose Goebel is searching for up to 20 qualified employees.

My Updated P800 Essentials
by Edd Dumbill
I still love my Sony
Ericsson P800 phone, and thought it was about time I updated my href="http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/wlg/3308">P800 essentials
article. The P900's been released since then, and all the apps I
mention here should work fine with it too. So here are some
applications for the P800/P900 that I just can't do without.
They're all freely usable (apart from Tracker) and most are open source. (I still can't get
over the way that in the PDA market you can charge $10 for a glorified Hello
World program.)
Quirc has replaced SymIRC
as my IRC client of choice. It's very well-designed.
Though I don't IRC as much from the pub anymore, it's handy for
getting over those boring train journeys!
Ogg Vorbis
Player. I can fit 2 CDs encoded as 64kbps Oggs on my 64MB
memory stick duo card, and still have plenty of room left for taking
pics. OggPlay has been released as open source since I first wrote
about it, and has added versions for Series 60 phones and the Motorola
SMan. A handy
tweaking tool. Most usefully provides the feature SonyEricsson have left out,
ability to send multiple files over Bluetooth in one go. You'll have to
navigate round the web page a bit to find it, unfortunately. Some source code
is available, but there is no explicit license.
Despite SMan's swiss army knife appeal, I generally use
Tracker now, which comes
with FileMan and TaskMan, two nice programs for managing files and
tasks. Tracker's payware, costing 20 euros. I'm addicted to the
"Today" view, which is a configurable summary of your appointments,
mail, tasks, etc.
href="http://www.opera.com/products/smartphone/">Opera. Makes
a much nicer job of browsing than the built-in browser, and only ever
gets better. There's no excuse for not having Opera installed.
eBook Reader. Always neat to carry around reading
material for the next time you're unexpectedly stuck in that airport.
wins hands-down as an instant messaging client. I use it to connect
to my Jabber account. The only odd thing is the nonstandard UI
buttons, but it's a small problem considering that AgileMessenger is a
great product available for free, when so many people want to charge a
lot of money for IM clients.
And finally, be sure to upgrade your phone's firmware if it's not the
latest. I took mine to a service centre (there'll be contact details for these
in your P800's manuals) and got it upgraded from R1D to R2F. The things I
noticed right away were that Bluetooth transfers were much quicker, and that
stylus input seemed more responsive. One word of warning, though, the phone's
memory gets wiped in the upgrade so don't forget to back up your data!
Have I missed anything? Which Symbian app can't you live without?

Yes, I must admit I've got my eye on the P910i. Am saying to myself it'll be a reward for finishing the book I'm writing... I'm heading down to the Symbian Expo in London in a week or so, which I expect will put even more temptation my way!

rand(3) and random(3) should really have references to arc4random(3) in their SEE ALSO section (since it is related). The FreeBSD rand(3)/random(3) man-pages have that reference.
Also, the random(4) man-page is missing quite a few references in its SEE ALSO section - check the FreeBSD random(4) man-page and you'll see a lot of references there.

The principle, called the end-to-end argument, suggests that functions placed at low levels of a system may be redundant or of little value when compared with the cost of providing them at that low level.

Low level mechanisms to support these functions are justified only as performance enhancements.Received on Wednesday, 15 January 2003 22:50:47 UTC

Story highlights
- They're seeking clues about possible motivations and connections to terrorist groups
- With the suspects identified, overseas connections can be looked into, official says
- U.S. officials say they're looking at intelligence reports, jihadist websites, passport records
- It is possible this was an act of domestic terrorism, official says
U.S. intelligence and law enforcement agencies are again reviewing all intelligence on the two suspects in the Boston bombing for clues about their motivations and connections to possible terrorist groups, U.S. officials tell CNN.
In the hours since their identities were confirmed by the FBI, "there is a very methodical and in-depth analysis underway on these suspects and the connections they may have had to any overseas group," a senior U.S. official told CNN.
Until Thursday, the Obama administration had not come up with any specific intelligence, including intercepts or online messages, indicating a threat to the Boston Marathon, according to officials CNN had spoken with previously. But now, with the identification of the suspects, and social media messages they have posted and other information coming to light, "we can focus more specifically on their potential connections overseas," the senior official said.
U.S. officials tell CNN that agencies are going back through all relevant data -- such as intelligence reports, intercepts, jihadist websites and passport records -- they have collected to see if there is any information about the suspects and if there are potential links to international or domestic terrorist groups.
However, the senior official also strongly emphasized that the intelligence community does not know at this point if there is an international connection or if the suspects were "inspired" or "influenced" by any overseas groups. He also reiterated that it is possible this was an act of domestic terrorism with no foreign nexus.

UnNews:For Ireland, yet another brain drain

For Ireland, yet another brain drain
Your A.D.D. news outl — Oooh, look at the pictures!

30 November 2010
DUBLIN, Ireland -- Chronic economic mismanagement--culminating in last week's decision to raise taxes by €5,000 million in the next three years--shows signs of driving yet another generation of Irish to do what Irish do best: Live somewhere else.
About 65,300 people left the country in the last twelve months, while immigration dropped from 57,300 to 30,800. And figures released in September show that the Irish who remain are increasingly old and whiny.
The trend is worrisome for the rest of the world, as it promises a new wave of loud arguments and fistfights in pubs everywhere. In the United States, Homeland Security secretary Janet Napolitano announced plans to move beyond airports with a device that Americans are coming to hate: the "Paddywagon."
Ireland, a vibrant nation with chronically incompetent leadership, has driven young people away in waves throughout history: in the mid-1800s, when statesmen tried to prop up retail food prices by plowing under the entire potato crop, and through a stagnant economy after World War II. The country had a resurgence in the mid-1990s, attracting industrial giants like Dell and Google, as the other countries of Europe got more incompetent faster. But now many of the 4.5 million Irish are contemplating a future abroad.
Kylee O'Brien cleared a space at her makeshift market stall here, selling all her possessions to return to her native Australia. "I can't handle being told I live in a rubbish country and that we are doomed," says O'Brien, who blissfully avoids reading Australian newspapers.
The United States also remains a promising destination, despite the language problem. Even with a president who insists that, "at some point, you've made enough money," and a first lady who has "never been proud" of the place, jumping the American border obviously remains the most lucrative business in the world.
Mary Corcoran, a sociology professor at the National University of Ireland, said modern technology may make emigrants less likely to return. "People can stay in touch with Skype and Facebook, and watch Gaelic football on satellite TV." This is often done abroad in Irish-themed pubs, where the emigrants drink Guinness on tap and then go hurling, she said.
But some Irish who have left and returned say leaving Ireland is not a solution. Julie O'Brien, a 66-year-old chef from Kilfinane, moved with her parents to Philadelphia in 1961. The family returned to Ireland the next year, chastened and convinced that the Irish in America were never going to amount to anything. "John F. Kennedy?" she asked this reporter in response to a question. "Who's he?"

Another small change - I cloned the EchoName element in MessageTest-2G, and used the clone (EchoName2) in the EchoNameExpectFault operation.

I've therefore changed testcases using "compress" - MessageTest-1G, -3G, and -4G so the tests will serve their intended purpose better - validating that an implementation can determine the transferCoding from the WSDL and change it in the message.

The const one is supposed to be used for comparisons > and the non-const one for assignments. It is a tiny thing, but I think one of the CIRCLEQ_END macros is useful in applications to replace what is now written as (void *)head with CIRCLEQ_END(head), and the version best suited for this should be the one named CIRCLEQ_END() with no extra characters. Given that all application use of (void *)head in the base system is for end-of-list comparisons, while only the macros do assignments to list variables, it might be a bit better to call the comparison version CIRCLEQ_END() and the assignment version something else. If you really do decide to fix the alias problem with the ugly inline then CIRCLEQ_END() can be defined as that to fix both macros and applications while leaving CIRCLEQ_END_DONT_USE_THIS() as-is for assignments.

4. Guidelines for Responding to Inquiries. NWS offices need to consider the following factors when determining whether or not responding to a request would violate the policy governing the relationship between the NWS and the private sector weather services.
a. The ready availability of the information required to respond to the request.
b. The resources needed to prepare a response to a user's request.
c. The nature and origin of the request.
These factors are summarized in the following guidelines.
4.1 Requests from Government Agencies and Institutions. To the extent that resources permit, the NWS will honor requests for information, data, and interpretation assistance from government entities. In this instance, government refers to Federal, state, county/parish/township, and municipal government entities. In some instances a field office might refer such requests to other offices or to NOAA (e.g. the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC), NESDIS, etc.) for handling.
4.2 Requests from the Public. The NWS will continue to respond to requests from the public on a time and information available basis. This includes providing requesters with interpretive information concerning NWS products. Typically, requesters should be referred first to NOAA Weather Radio (NWR) broadcasts or to public media outlets that disseminate NWS information provided by NOAA Weather Wire Service (NWWS) or the Family of Services (FOS). Should the requester be dissatisfied with this approach, the information should then be supplied as time and availability allow. Requests that require the preparation of specialized forecast products or services should be referred to the private sector. Requests for climatological information should be honored if the information is readily available and a data search is not required (remember to charge appropriate fees for copying, etc.). If data searches are required, the requester should be referred to the NCDC, the Regional Climate Center, or the State Climatologist.
4.3 Requests from Private Industry and Businesses. If the request is for forecasts, data, information, etc., that the NWS prepares in the normal course of operations, the request should be honored on a time-available basis. This includes providing interpretive information concerning NWS products if the requests are nonroutine. To the extent possible, refer requesters to NWR, NWWS, or the FOS. If the request is routine or is for special services, including requests for climatological data that require data searches, whether on a routine or nonroutine basis, the requester should be referred to the private sector or, in the case of climatological data, to NCDC. A simple request for copies of a particular month's worth of local climatological data (LCD) available in that office could be honored at the fixed charge governed by WSOM D-90.
4.4 Requests from the Media. The NWS will support the media to the fullest extent possible given time and resource availability. This support assumes consistency with the NWS policy regarding the phase-out of direct routine support to commercial radio stations and newspapers. NWS will provide interviews regarding ongoing or potential severe weather events and other weather situations that have the potential for becoming life threatening, for causing property damage, or for causing significant disruption of public services or citizens, normal activities. The NWS will also provide full support, on a time and resource available basis, for "human interest" type weather stories that the media generates on a nonroutine basis. NWS employees, whether on official time or off duty, continue to be prohibited from appearing on the electronic media for the purpose of providing routine dissemination of day- to-day weather information.
4.5 Referrals to the Private Sector. The NWS shall not provide free advertising (by referral) for any private meteorologist or related company. A requester needing the services of a private meteorologist (either based on the preceding guidelines or a specific inquiry) should be referred to the telephone directory, the local chapter of the American Meteorological Society, the National Weather Association, or the:
American Meteorological Society
45 Beacon Street
Boston, Massachusetts 02108
Phone (617) 227-2425
If a requester is referred to the offices or chapters of the American Meteorological Society or the National Weather Association, the requester should be informed that these two organizations actively certify those in the profession to provide various private sector services.

Game on
Holy EPIC today at Nationals! Tim is unbelievable. I'm getting the reports from the boys in KC as they happen. Bummer for Trebon but I heard he was never in contention. Beyond TJ though, the ride of today I heard was Andy Jasques-Mayne. Sick. He essentially erases himself this summer breaking 16 bones and comes back this season to take his stars and bars yesterday in the 30-34's and an awesome ride today. Sweet.
I am PUMPED FOR MOL! Holy crap.
Mag ik uw documenten alstublieft hebben?
Za plans du Belgique are rounding out and I've not just got my hands on my UCI license and the authorization papers required to race in a foreign country. So, if'n you, my faithful M & C readers, are interested in doing this at some point, don't forget to contact USA Cycling for these! They came in like a day and officials at these races are known to ask you for them at random times apparently from when you register to while pre-riding I hear. The folks there in the 'Springs are super helpful.
The toes are de-numbing but one week on still not 100%. Crazy. It's exactly like the sensation you have when you get your teeth worked on and the Novocaine is starting to wear off. More depth today to bake in what's needed in the legs so suffer fest up/down/up/down Poorman's is prescribed. I will likely be cross-eyed when done. I hope my toes don't re-freeze.
Za Team for Za Trip
Belgium, baby. T-minus ~1 month and counting. Holy crap.
I am pumped to announce that my partners in crime for this epic adventure are Mr. Kurt Perham, fellow Master A racer and coach extraordinare...
...and Mr. Brandon Dubba Dwight, Elite racer, Velo News author, La Ruta survivor, crusty former East Coaster, co-proprietor of Boulder Cycle Sport and finally my guru on instructing me how precisely I am going to get my arse kicked in Belgium unless I start learning to cross with my elbows and hands, etc (it is a full contact sport over there) as well as training with me by spitting beer and blowing cigarette smoke in my face to ensure I am ready for the experience. He should know, having made the trek previously as an elite....
This is going to be epic....and will be...
Turning the engine over
Got out with the Boups-man early this AM before work to get the engine fired back up. For me, it's exactly like getting your '84 VW diesel warmed up and moving. Once that fuel's been un-gelled, I'm OK.
Today was beautiful and cold. Frost on the ground here and Boups and I did some nice flowy tempo stuff on our trail network. We caught up which was good and talked cross like school boys.
I woke up this morning feeling a bit tired but the rest has helped. The legs still feel heavy but not in the way just after lots of work, more in the way that the work is all in there but you need to crack the muscles open and get 'em going again. More openers again this week and then on to finish up the season over the next two weekends.
I need to get to the bank for a little wire transfer action to pay the place we're staying at in Belgium. The crew is set and we are stoked. I really can not wait! I just need to stay healthy and get some good training and rest in December and early Jan before I get on the big plane over there. The ultimate vacation...
Gobble gobble
Well, it had to happen some time. Paradise needed to remind itself that it does in fact situate itself in the mountains. The pow pow came down last night after a final couple of days of absolute beautiful days in the sun.
The boys and girls will likely cross today...somewhere. 29'ers replacing cross bikes through the snow. Maybe Poormans, maybe long dirt road rides in place of parks and barriers.
Mr. KP sent me the latest on Master's Worlds (yes, I am STILL going!):

Have an enjoyable T-giving everyone! We'll be with some of the best friends we know on this earth, as they begin their journey to move back to the Bay Area. Turkey and Beer. Lots of 'cross talk. No riding but running.
On the cross
I'll be hoisting up the big girl undies as far as possible to race the On the Cross race held in scenic Highlands Ranch CO tomorrow considering my implosion a week ago. Last weekend's debacle is still looming in my brian but a week of just getting away from cyclo-cross bikes and the pressure to just stay on it was part of my agenda. I'm way happier and truly have no idea how the body will respond this weekend but a couple of days on lunch time rides on my single speed brought smiles to my face that haven't been there in a while. I want to get over this mid season hump and in parallel am willing the work badness to stop. I am trying like hell to Jedi Mind Trick the work drama to move from me and slap its all-consuming badness on some other poor sucker. Be gone work shite. Be gone.
Tomorrow, fun 'cross with WB and Dave. No expectations. No pressure....whatever. Just me and some pain for an hour or so.
Better news: Mol is a go for me and a tight crew who have committed. More on that in an upcoming post We've got the hook ups over seas and the race schedule is coming into view.
Old home Monday to Friday this coming week for the DEBACLE so again, limited training but such is life. I'm gonna pack up and bring the 1 x 1 along and go and be with some of my core family for some smiles. An epic night ride I hear is in order!
Locked and loaded
That's right! HA! I'm locked and loaded for Belgium! I am inexplicably excited. This has been an amazing year of ups and downs but my focus on this goal has been what's gotten me though. Each Friday since 2006 my Outlook Reminder throws up a reminder to me that I will be in Belgium in 2008. I see it and I chuckle to myself. I simply visualize what it's going to be like....what I'll see, who I'll meet, how I'll go, how the equipment will work, etc etc and I get into this uncontrollable smile state. Can't wipe it off my mug once my wheels start turning in my head thinking about it.
I will be having some awesome travel companions on the journey and they are working feverishly to get all their plans dialed. I am so pumped.
Mol, baby.
Enter sand man
So the Coloradans will have their fill of sand this weekend given the races locale: The Boulder Reservoir. Brian H and the BoulderRacing.com crew will be out there in force to get course dialed. Bring your Stans however given the unbelievable amount of goat heads on the course. Last year, Chris G literally swept and raked every square inch of the course by hand to free it if the spiky race ruiners.
My run today was unbelievable. One of those absolutely picture perfect fall mornings. I couldn't believe how well I responded back to the running after doing so much of it to prep for 'cross (~ 3 x per week). I felt light and the legs turned over good. I will be missing this weekends beach frolics as I'm heading east for the family fun. Then back to help Chris G set up for the UCI races coming next weekend. This race and a re-emphasis on running will help as training for my Mol trip.....which will have monster sections of sand and require power and running savvy. John Suzuki, a CA based 'crosser captured some great pics you can see here:
Needless to say, I will be found at the Rez days in December getting the whole sand thing dialed for January 19th 2008.
'Cross on, peeps.
So I started this whole diary as an account of what it's like to plan for a year to get to Belgium. It's amazing how my heart has never wavered from the goal. Crazy focus.
The plan thus far:
January 12th 2008: Schriek Groot-Lo CX Belgium
January 13th 2008: Bakel 'Cross Bakel, The Netherlands
January 14-18 2008: Train/Eat/Sleep/Pinch myself
January 19th 2008: Master's World Championships Mol, Belgium
January 20th 2008: My birthday!...oh and Fort 6 'Cross Wilrijk, Belgium
Howie has been so gracious in allowing me such visibility into their experiences over the years racing in Belgium. Thank you my friend.
Now, back to focusing on some family, training, racing an work. Gotta maintain that three part teeter totter...
This is what the Master's World's Jersey looks like. I can dream, can't I? It'll be a success if I can just be pack fodder with these animals in January but I am not rolling over with my legs up in teh air. I'll be going out in a hail of bullets.

Red Dawn Remake Digitally Changes Chinese Villains to North Koreans
Like a videogame before it, the long-delayed remake of the '80s Cold War action flick Red Dawn (in which evil Russians invade the US and a group of American teens begin a guerrilla campaign against them) has decided to change the villains of their film from Chinese to North Korean. Only problem? The movie's already been filmed.
Yeah, so they're going in and digitally replacing flags and stuff. Of course they won't be able to change all the dialogue and other references to China, but they'll try! So it'll just be a confusing muddle, basically. This is all happening because Chinese newspapers had grown wise to the fact that a movie depicting evil Chineses invading precious America was coming out, and so they got upset. China being a fairly big movie market, what with its billion or so people, MGM decided they maybe should attempt to not piss them off. The North Koreans are always and forever mad at us, and what're they gonna do about it anyway, so it was an easy replacement choice.
So, that's that. The real takeaway from this story, though, is that this movie might finally be released!! A true story of victory.

Hi James,
Thank you so much for the in-depth feedback. It's really appreciated.
We obviously can't think of everything - though we do try. My comments

We will have a look at this. We went back and forth, but we thought it
was more confusing to show both options at the same time. We'll re-
review it though. If anyone else has a comment, I'd love to hear it.

It _shouldn't_ record the streetview unless they have clicked "record
position". So just checking it doesn't mean it's been street viewed.
If you have found this isn't the case, please tell me.

That's interesting and a good point. I'll see what we can do.

I have noticed this and actually used your profile as an example in my
bug reports. We will probably need to make the entire container taller
to accommodate. This as well as changing the title line height and
possibly font size. You are absolutely right and we have noticed this
when we set the new design on "real data"

This was an argument. We've used it because it is recognisable. People
seemed to miss the fact we had street view at all - which is a major
shame considering it's a great feature. We did more "bling" here than
we normally would have.

James, again you have found an issue. I don't believe it is counting
Street View Views of images. We are remedying.

This has been a bug that has been mentioned before but really hard to
reproduce. It seems to appear mostly when it's a new user and lots of
things load in the background. Thanks to your email, I finally have an
example and have already created a bug report. I have even done a
screen flow of the issue and added it to the bug report.
All the best

Our youth are our future
Youth in New Zealand can have their lives transformed by people who are qualified to provide them with support and guidance. This is the view of the national advisory committee on youth development which oversees the Bachelor of Youth Development – the only qualification in New Zealand which provides a full degree in the discipline of youth development.
"Youth Work is its own profession and it's really important that those overseeing the people who work with youth encourage their workforce to get qualified," says Committee Chairperson John Harrington.
John Harrington who works for the Canterbury Youth Workers Collective says, "Youth work often gets confused with social work, but it really is a specialist field. Many young people in this country experience a hard time during their development and it is vitally important that Youth Workers, who work with young people, are skilled and qualified. What they need is professional guidance and support which is brought together and enhanced through degree level study.
Our Committee has a vision that everyone working with young people have the opportunity to study and achieve a qualification. As a sector we encourage young people to remain engaged in learning and this applies equally to our own workforce.
"We estimate there are more than 3000 Youth Workers employed in New Zealand and many volunteers. The vast majority have no qualifications or only a certificate. The standard of service and support to our young people is really improved when you have a workforce who not only have a strong base of life skills and experience to offer, but who also understand the development requirements of youth as a separate group to adults and children – skills students learn on the Bachelor of Youth Development.
"We want to produce more graduates in New Zealand with the Bachelor of Youth Development qualification. Our young people deserve it," says John Harrington.
Andy Pilbrow leads the Youth Workers in Secondary Schools pilot which sees nine youth workers from Family Works Northern and the Anglican Trust for Women and Children working with youth in South and West Auckland. "The government expectation is that youth workers are qualified. This is a good thing. Practice needs to be supplemented by theory.
"People involved in the specialised field of youth work need an evidence base gained through academic training to complement their practical skills. They need good information and good training.
"Increasingly academic training is required for youth workers to perform their job to the expected standard. As an example youth workers are required to keep good case notes, write reports and make referrals. Academic training provides the skills for this part of the job. The Bachelor of Youth Development is the only degree of its type in New Zealand and signals that a youth worker has the right skills and attributes required to fully undertake the role.
In light of the need for qualified workers especially in Auckland, WelTec has expanded its intake for July 2014 and invites interested individuals to contact us now. Scholarships are also available.
An Employer and Community Event for interested students, employers and community leaders
What: Learn about the professional development opportunities for the youth workforce and hear from lecturers on the Bachelor of Youth Development
Who: WelTec – only New Zealand training provider of the Bachelor of Youth Development
Where: Viaduct Events Centre, Halsey Street, Auckland

Announcing Weekly Wine Tastings
The Pentagoet Inn and Restaurant, a bed and breakfast in Castine, Maine announces the opening of "The Baron Pub and Wine Bar". The opening party will be held Thursday, June 19th, from 5-6:30pm with a tasting of champagne and sparkling wines. This will be the first of the pub's weekly wine tastings with sommelier Bill Zildjian . Bill and his expert knowledge of wine will be presenting themed tastings based on wine regions, food pairings, and the eccentric tastes of former heads of state. Join Bill for one glass or a flight of the evening's specials. Promises to be informative and fun.
Bill Zildjian, a longtime wine collector, recently completed the demanding four-term wine course at the Elizabeth Bishop Institute for Wine Studies at Boston University, where he studied under two Masters of Wine, Bill Nesto and Sandy Block, passing with Honors.
Affiliated with the distinguished Masters of Wine Trust in London, the course combines a rigorous survey of the world's wines and wine regions with intensive studies in viniculture and viticulture, as well as in blind-tasting and wine-and-food pairing. The BU course is a final academic prerequisite for MW candidates.
The BU Teachers are the only Masters of Wine in the Northeast US; an MW title represents the pinnacle of wine knowledge and there are only 300 MW's presently. The third faculty member at the BU course, Stacey Woods, is a Certified Wine Educator and is currently an MW candidate.
While the wine studies were intense and serious, Bill has kept his original collector's passion for wine, and hopes to pass that enthusiasm along to the Pentagoet's guests

Facilitating Word Recognition and Spelling Using Word Boxes and Word Sort Phonic Procedures. (Research Brief)
Joseph, Laurice M., School Psychology Review
Abstract. Word boxes and word sorts are two word study phonics approaches that involve teaching phonemic awareness, making letter-sound associations, and teaching spelling through the use of well-established behavioral principles. In the current study, the effectiveness of word boxes and word sorts was examined through the use of a multiple baseline design across students. Participants had mild mental retardation and ranged in age from 9 years, 5 months to 10 years, 6 months. Findings revealed that word boxes and word sort phonic procedures increased students' word identification and spelling skills. The results are discussed in terms of how the format for these two instructional procedures facilitates opportunities to respond for teaching consonant-vowel-consonant patterned words.
A common cause of reading problems is difficulty making letter-sound associations (Adams & Henry, 1997; Stahl, 1998). One explanation for weak letter-sound association skills is the lack of explicit phonics instruction in the primary grades (Adams, 1990; Groff, 1998; Pressley, 1998). Word boxes and word sorts are two types of contemporary phonic techniques that have been embedded within comprehensive reading programs such as Reading Recovery (clay, 1993) and Four Blocks (Cunningham, 1999). These techniques incorporate spelling and phonemic awareness training through the use of concrete manipulative materials (Stahl, Duffy-Hester, & Stahl, 1998). Additionally, these techniques employ robust behavioral principles of teaching and learning such as modeling, opportunities to respond, repeated exposures, corrective feedback, and reinforcement. These principles of learning have clearly achieved empirical support (e.g., Daly & Martens, 1994; Greenwood, 1991; Narayan, Heward, Gardner, Courson, & Omness, 1990; Samuels, 1988; Skinner, Logan, Robinson, & Robinson, 1997).
Word boxes, a technique that clay (1993) incorporated into the comprehensive Reading Recovery Program, are an extension of Elkonin's (1973) sound boxes. Word boxes are implemented in Reading Recovery when children experience difficulty grasping the sequential order of sounds in spoken words and of letter sequences in written words. Word boxes consist of a drawn rectangle that has been divided into sections (i.e., boxes) according to the phonemes in a word. Children are instructed either to move counters or magnetic or tile letters, or to write letters in the boxes as they say each sound in a word. Word boxes have been described by scholars in the field of reading (e.g., Griffith & Olson, 1992; Yopp, 1995) as a viable approach for helping children develop phonemic awareness. Variations of this approach have also been incorporated in comprehensive phonemic awareness training programs that have been tested with preschoolers in experimental studies (e.g., Ball & Blachman, 1991; Hohn & Ehri, 1983). Within Reading Recovery, word boxes have been used to help children improve their writing skills (Deford, 1994).
Although components of word boxes have been used as part of comprehensive training programs (e.g., Reading Recovery and preschool phonemic awareness training programs), Joseph (1998/1999) investigated word boxes in isolation as a method for teaching word identification and spelling with children who had phonemic awareness deficits as well as limited skills in identifying and spelling words. Using a multiple baseline design across participants, all of the children made progress in reading and spelling words in isolation. They were also able to identify and spell target words in other contexts (i.e., spelling target words accurately in sentences and saying target words correctly while reading short stories).
Joseph (2000b) found that a sample of first graders who received word boxes instruction performed better on word identification and spelling than a control group of first graders who received instruction on detecting phonetic rules through the use of teacher-directed lessons and worksheet exercises. …

There are no profiles who are due to come to Pendle in the near future, perhaps they are already here or have arrived today
This page seems to have little competition for you, setting up your advert here could really work well for you.
Pendle is a district and borough that sits in the county of Lancashire in the north west of England. It sits on the very east of Lancashire, and so shares a border with North and West Yorkshire. One of the most prominent features of the area is Pendle Hill, which is where the area gets its name from, but it is also known for the Pendle witch trials of 1612. The district has a very rich history that you can explore, but there are also plenty of other fun things for you to do in the area. Why not invite one of the Pendle escorts to help you discover the best that the area has to offer?
As the Pendle Witch Trials of 1612 form such a huge part of the area's history, it would be a shame to not explore it. Thankfully, the Pendle Heritage Centre is the perfect place to do this. Here you can learn all about life in the district from the 17th century onwards, including an exhibition specifically on the witch trials. Learn all about what sparked the witch hunts and why Pendle was such a central part of the fight against witchcraft in the 1600s in this amazing museum.
Want to treat your chosen escort in Pendle to something nice? Why not head to the Boundary Mill store? This huge shopping centre can be found in Colne and is open seven days a week, meaning you have plenty of time to find that special gift. Whatever you are looking for here, whether it is a new wardrobe or some tasty treats to try the next time you make a brew, you will find them here. The store does get very busy though, and so you will want to get there early to try and avoid the crowds.
There are some great hidden gems in Pendle, and one of them can be found in Nelson. The Inside Spa is a truly wonderful place where you can relax and unwind in the sauna and steam rooms before heading off to get a massage or a facial. The prices are very cheap, as this is actually a council run spa, and you can often find deals for a spa day for two with lunch. Check their website out to see the different packages available and treat yourself to a relaxing day out.

Severus Snape twist and turns trying to fall asleep at night. Even though he is in the safety of Hogwarts the horrid memories of the Pits haunts his dreams. The Pits, an evil place where death eaters would keep women to pleasure them. Female death eaters never did anything, all the women in the Pits were considered vile for one reason or another, but Severus knew the truth, as did everyone else but no one agrued with the Dark Lord. Severus never used these women, probably because he never believed in what the Death eaters were doing. He never stopped to help any of the women, execpt one.
