text: If the arguments of the present chapter are of any validity, there ought to exist the fullest liberty of professing and discussing, as a matter of ethical conviction, any doctrine, however immoral it may be considered. It would, therefore, be irrelevant and out of place to examine here, whether the doctrine of Tyrannicide deserves that title. I shall content myself with saying that the subject has been at all times one of the open questions of morals; that the act of a private citizen in striking down a criminal, who, by raising himself above the law, has placed himself beyond the reach of legal punishment or control, has been accounted by whole nations, and by some of the best and wisest of men, not a crime, but an act of exalted virtue; and that, right or wrong, it is not of the nature of assassination, but of civil war. As such, I hold that the instigation to it, in a specific case, may be a proper subject of punishment, but only if an overt act has followed, and at least a probable connexion can be established between the act and the instigation. Even then, it is not a foreign government, but the very government assailed, which alone, in the exercise of self-defence, can legitimately punish attacks directed against its own existence.

Shabadi, Rajashekhar and Kumar, Subodh and Roven, Hans J and Dwarakadasa, ES (2004) Effect of specimen condition, orientation and alloy composition on PLC band parameters. In: Materials Science and Engineering: A, 382 (1-2). pp. 203-208.

The PLC band parameters are studied in an AA2219 aluminium alloy using a newly developed laser speckle technique for the direct observation of PLC bands. It is observed that though the magnitude of serration is larger in the solution treated condition, the PLC bands are brighter and sharper in the as-received condition. The band multiplicity is much greater, and band width and band velocity are much lower in the as-received condition as compared to the solution-treated condition. Band angle is not affected by the specimen condition. The specimen orientation, on the other hand, does not make much difference in the mechanical properties, serration characteristics and PLC band parameters of the AA2219 alloy tested in the solution-treated condition. The serration characteristics and PLC band behaviour are also found to be similar in the AA5082, AA7020 and AA2219 alloys tested in the solution-treated condition. These various effects are explained by solute content and microstructure of the material.

Q I am very new to Linux, although there do seem to be some similarities to the Amiga of years past. After a few attempts I have finally installed Fedora, dual booting with Win XP. I have tried to install FreeBasic, with no success so far! It does not seem to recognise ./configure and other instructions.
A One significant difference between Linux shells and the Amiga shell is that Linux does not include the current directory in the path by default, whereas AmigaDOS did. The Linux way is more secure, but it means you have to specify the path when running a script or program from the current directory. The current directory is denoted by '.' so ./configure means "run the program or script called configure in the current directory" It should now be clear that the command ./configure only works when the file configure exists in the current directory. Compiling from source usually involves unpacking the tarball, changing to the directory created by the previous step and running ./configure, followed by make and make install -something like this:
tar xf foo-1.2.3.tar.gz cd foo-1.2.3 ./configure make make install
While this applies to more than 90% of Linux applications, there are many exceptions. After running cd, look for files called README or INSTALL. These contain specific instructions on compiling and installing that particular application. In the case of FreeBasic, if you want to install from source, you have to do the configure-make-make install dance several times, after downloading two archives. Alternatively, you may have the pre-compiled binary archive - FreeBASIC-v0.16b-linux.tar.gz - which uses a completely different installation method with its own install script. Read the file readme.txt inside this archive for precise details on installation. We ask you to read the file rather than reproduce the instructions here, because there may be subtle changes in the installation process between versions. The readme.txt file should be considered authoritative. Always look for installation instructions when installing from an archive (as opposed to using a distro's package manager), as you are executing commands as root that could have an adverse effect on your system if done incorrectly.

Best Bets for Reducing Poverty and Hunger
Opportunities for Investment in Agricultural Research
On October 10, Joachim von Braun moderated the Plenary Session "The Food Crisis: What Happened and What Should Be Done?" at the 2008 Annual Meetings of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank Group
The burgeoning world financial crisis has pushed aside the attention of policymakers from the threat of rising food prices, but the global food crisis is far from over. It continues to threaten the food and nutrition security of poor people around the globe.
The financial crisis reduces demand and speculative activity, leading to lower food prices, and this may provide some relief to poor consumers. At the same time, however, the credit crunch prevents accelerated flow of capital to long-term investments in sectors such as agriculture, just as this investment is urgently needed. This undermines production growth toward a more resilient global food system.
The pattern of low global investment in agricultural research and development has contributed to slower growth in agricultural productivity. Unless the world addresses these challenges, the livelihoods and food security of millions of poor people, as well as the economic, ecological, and political situation in many developing countries, will remain at risk.
Progress in achieving development goals—such as cutting hunger and poverty in half by 2015—is slipping. The number of hungry people actually increased by at least 75 million from 2004 to 2007, and probably increased by even more in 2008. Addressing these challenges will require significant increases in public spending. Studies show that investments in agricultural research have extremely high rates of return in terms of growth and poverty reduction. But what specific investments should be scaled up, and where?
According to analysis by the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), doubling spending on public agricultural research over five years would significantly raise agricultural output and reduce poverty. But targeting different regions would yield different benefits. Allocating more investment to East and Southeast Asia would raise agricultural output growth the most and reduce the number of people living on less than US$1 a day by 204 million by 2020. Spending more in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia would have less impact on agricultural growth, but would lift more people—about 282 million—out of poverty by 2020.
But not all agricultural research investments are equally effective in combating hunger and poverty. Scientists and researchers from the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR) have produced a list of fourteen "best bets" that would reap the greatest benefits and get the most bang for the buck. These investments fall into three broad categories:
- Create and accelerate sustainable increases in productivity and production of healthy food by and for poor people.
- Conserve, enhance, and sustainably use natural resources and biodiversity to improve the livelihoods of the poor and respond to climate change.
- Mobilize science and technology to stimulate institutional innovation and enabling policies for pro-poor agricultural growth and gender equity.
If the potential of these "Best bets" research programs were unleashed, they could benefit billions of people over the next five years. Unfortunately, progress is currently constrained by a lack of funds. While the investments required might seem large by the standards of agricultural research, they are small compared with other general development expenditures. In terms of the number of people reached and the potential returns to investment—improved health and well-being for billions of people—doubling spending on CGIAR research is more than a wise business investment; it's a moral imperative.
The International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) seeks sustainable solutions for ending hunger and poverty. IFPRI is one of 15 centers supported by the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research, an alliance of 64 governments, private foundations, and international and regional organizations.

South Korea has said it is ready to murder Kim Jong-UN
The South Korean authorities, in response to the DPRK conducted a nuclear test, has said it is ready at any moment to destroy the senior military leadership in Pyongyang and erase the capital of North Korea from the map".
photo: ruwikipedia
These words, published by the South Korean Agency "Yonhap" quoted the head of the Bureau of TASS in Japan Vasily Golovnin.
According to him, South Korea for the first time did so much a dramatic statement against its Northern neighbor, although it remains expressed on behalf of the "serious sources", and not of the authorities.
Read about the objectives pursued by Pyongyang.
The reason for the attack can serve as a "slightest signs" of preparing a nuclear strike on the country. The strategy of South Korea in this case will be concluded in a massive ballistic missile attack, and "other funds" in the capital of the neighboring country, and in the destruction of its senior military leadership, headed by himself, Kim Jong-UN.
According to Golovnin, South Korea takes seriously the threat of potential nuclear conflict with a neighbor.
The representative of the Minister of defense of South Korea said its Northern neighbor is preparing to conduct another nuclear test at a nuclear test site, Pungere.

Residence: 48676 Darby Ave., Nikiski
Mail address: P.O. Box 8425, Nikiski, AK 99635
Contacts: 776-844, home; 252-5264, cell
Age: 54
Years in the borough: 31
Family: Wife, Linda, and three children
Occupation: Builder, business owner
Education: High school, three years of college, four-year apprenticeship
Previous elected office: Borough assembly (1989-92 and 2001-present), assembly president (2004-present)
Organizations: Alaska Municipal League Board of Directors, Nikiski Chamber Board of Directors, vice president of Congregation Briat Elohim, Kenai Peninsula Charr President, Alaska state Charr Board of Directors
1. Do you support Proposition 4 and 5? Why?
No. Prop 4 asks to effectively reduce capital project expenditures to $1 million. Currently, the assembly has appropriating authority without a vote of the people to $1.5 million. Prop. 4 includes grant money into the cap and requires a 60-percent voter supermajority to authorize. The authors know these two components will virtually hamstring any pursuit of infrastructure needs. I have seen no verification of abuse in the current system. Philosophically, I believe in the representative democracy, as opposed to direct democracy. With passage, the public will be asked to vote on most projects. Responsible infrastructure development, small and large, is a gift we leave our communities and the next generation.
No on Prop 5. The 1-percent sales tax increase was the fairest, most equitable solution to this springs' budget shortfall. I was extremely reluctant to place any added burden on homeowners' property tax bill.
2. Do you support Propositions 1, 2 and 3? Why?
No on Proposition 1. If everyone else is doing it, do we have to? Targeted sales taxation can unfairly burden small business and select groups (e.g. B&B's, small motels, smokers). When we implement these, we increase the reluctance of the populace to accept general sales tax increases. I support general consumption taxes over targeted taxation and homeowner taxation. If the cities wish to implement a bed tax (Seward has) they can do so. (Non-Home Rule jurisdictions will need statutory changes). The Borough should not play the intermediary in redistributing this revenue back to the cities.
Prop 2 is a legitimate bond question for CES area residents. They will make the correct choice.
Yes on Prop 3. Funding issues, maintenance, bridge jurisdiction and location are still of primary concern, but we need to continue pursuing construction of this project.
3. Should the borough consider assuming new or expanding existing powers? Why?
The borough's level of power is limited by its status as a second-class borough. This has served us well since inception. Our method of expansion has been primarily creation of new service areas and the services they deliver. I realize there will be increased demand for new services as our population continues to grow. Unless we can reverse the state's inclination to offload their historic funding obligations to municipalities, we will have little choice but to fill the void.
4. What actions would you recommend if faced with declining borough revenues, increased expenses and a fund balance that is near its recommended lower limit?
I would stay the course on the actions the Assembly took this spring to balance the budget. As Assembly President, I was integral to the sales tax increase. We have a fiduciary responsibility to keep the borough functioning and solvent. The current mayor forwarded positional cuts through the budget and I supported all, except I voted to keep the Homer KPB office at full time. The general sales tax increase was and will continue to be the least onerous of options available. I acknowledge, and I hope the public will also, that a $7 million cut to the budget will have a destructive and lasting effect on our school district, our seniors (i.e. senior property tax exemption) our road maintenance and solid waste programs. These are crucial to our quality of life. Loss of state revenue has directly and negatively affected KPB taxpayers. Is there a reason for this at $68 per barrel oil?
5. What makes you the best candidate for the job?
I am the candidate with a thorough grasp on the mechanics of the borough, its problems and its opportunities. I'm a carpenter by trade with deep ties to the working class. Through years of experience, I've learned to keep my ears equally open to high level decision makers and wage earners. My perspective is wide and unique. I have no loyalty to political party mechanisms. Their agendas are not always best for borough citizens. I've said many times, "There really is no room for partisanship and the borough government level". I am not and never will be the establishments' anointed, but I have worked with them and always will.
I have the proven ability to work with the Assembly, move us ahead and address looming issues. This relationship is crucial. I am a team player who analyzes all sides and carries no elite pretense forward in the decision and policy-making process.
6. Describe the Kenai Peninsula Borough as you would like to see it 25 years from now. If elected mayor, what will you do to make that vision a reality?
My children and yet-to-be-born grandkids are enjoying the quality of life that brought me here as a young person. They have the opportunities to make their way on their own in good paying jobs, build homes and families, enjoy the rural lifestyle and recreational activities that abound here.
It will take vision and balance to protect what we have and lead us forward. Our heavy industries must be promoted and advocated for (oil and gas related). A long-term solution to gas supply is essential to our future, As part of the team, I will lead the advocacy of the Spur or Bullet line from the Slope. I will work to ensure the future viability of our commercial fisheries. I will advocate for a new and expanded timber industry. I will continue to acknowledge that tourism is an integral part of our economy now, and primary to certain areas of the borough.

Everything's Rosie
- Artist: Rosemary Clark
- Genre: Country
- Release Date: 2/19/2008
I grew up in a musical family. My dad and mom both played the guitar and my dad's brothers played banjo, guitar, mandolin, concertina, and accordion. We all sang, but no one had a more beautiful voice than my mother. I was stubborn about not taking time when I was a child about not learning to play an instrument. I was more apt to write a story, a poem or a song. When I grew up and moved away I missed the music so my mom taught me the basics over the phone. I kept writing songs and eventually began to sing them here and there. My father passed away at fifty three and my mom got MS at thirty seven. Some years later she got leukemia. Her strength and her faith and her love of singing have sustained her. She is still singing with me though not as much as she used to. She still plays her old beat up Fender guitar and she still sounds great. I wanted to have something to cherish besides my memories of her and decided to take her to a studio to record some of the old time country music that she and I and my sister Janie always sang. I put a few pickers together and we spent about four hours in the studio singing and laughing. The CD isn't professional and that's just what I wanted. We laughed and had a ball doing it. Years from now I will be able to listen to my mother's lovely voice and smile. In fact that was the inspiration for one of the songs on this album called, "The Sweet Loving Arms of My Mom". After that first CD (for our own listening pleasure only) we started talking about all the songs I have written and some of them mom helped me with. That was how 'Everything's Rosie' got started. The music for the songs comes easily. I always have a melody running through my head. All of these songs are inspired by personal things or people I have known. I think that's what country is all about. In February 2008 I entered an International contest sponsored by VH-1's Save the Music Foundation with my song 'One More Dime'. I was honored with fourth place finalist. The Song of the Year contest, a world wide competition, is judged by some of the biggest names in music including many Grammy Award winners. I have lots of songs that are as yet not recorded. If this CD goes anywhere I will be recording more of them. I hope anyone hearing this album will have as much fun listening to it as I had in making it. Rosie.

Originally posted on Fox Sports Tennessee | Last updated 1/14/13
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) -- Reserves Jamal Crawford and Matt Barnes each scored 16 points, and the Clippers easily routed the Memphis Grizzlies 99-73 Monday night with Chris Paul missing his first game this season because of a bruised right kneecap. The matchup between two of the best teams in the West wasn't close much of the way. While Paul watched from the bench, the Grizzlies were without their leading scorer: Rudy Gay was excused for his grandmother's funeral in Baltimore. This also was the Clippers' first trip to Memphis since they won Game 7 of their opening-round playoff series last May, and they held the Grizzles to a season-low in points while matching their largest-margin of victory on the road this season. Eric Bledsoe, starting for Paul, had 14 points, and Blake Griffin scored 10. Zach Randolph had 15 for Memphis, which lost its second straight. Wayne Ellington added 11 in a rare start, and Darrell Arthur had 10. Both teams were coming off losses, but the Clippers responded much better to being without their point guard on the first night of back-to-back road games. The Clippers scored the first five points of the game and went on a 17-2 run in grabbing a 32-19 lead. When Memphis pulled to 36-30, the Clippers answered with a 17-4 spurt and led 53-34 at halftime. Los Angeles got a big boost from its bench, which outscored Memphis 28-4 in the first half and finished with a 54-26 edge. The Clippers' advantage was so big Griffin played only 25 minutes. The Grizzlies brought back rookie Tony Wroten from Reno in the NBA D-League for depth. Memphis coach Lionel Hollins even joked before the game who he'd be subbing in since he started Ellington. Memphis had its lowest scoring half this season in what was just part of an ugly night all around. The Grizzlies passed 20 points only in the fourth quarter (21) and were so sloppy that Mike Conley stole the ball off Griffin's pass only to hit Tony Allen in the face with a pass on the other end in the half. The Clippers didn't ease up in the second half either, opening the third quarter with a 15-6 edge. They pushed their lead to 16 points, 68-42, on a pair of free throws by Bledsoe with 4:03 left in the third, and Ryan Hollins' alley-oop dunk with 2:41 gave the Clippers their biggest lead of the night, 95-68. NOTES: The Clippers also won by 26 Dec. 15 at Milwaukee. ... The Clippers are 22-6 when their reserves outscore the opponent's bench. ... The Clippers now are 23-2 when leading after the first quarter. They came in second-best in the NBA in that category. ... The Clippers' largest road victory was by 28 on Nov. 6, 2009, at Golden State. ... The Grizzlies' previous low first half was 37 points Dec. 29 against Denver, and they had just 36 against Atlanta on Dec. 8 in the second half. ... Memphis scored 80 twice previously this season, winning Dec. 17 against Chicago the last time.

Reports from Japan say at least 100 people have died in snow-related accidents this season.
The toll includes a six-year-old boy who died Monday when snow from the roof of a day-care center fell on him as he played with friends in the facility's playground.
The death toll is the highest since the winter of 1983-1984 when 131 people died in northern Japan.
Officials are warning that avalanches pose a danger as temperatures warm briefly this week. Some areas are piled with nearly four meters of snow.
Some information for this story provided by AP and AFP.

stellar 0.3.2
stellar is a tool for creating and restoring database snapshots
Latest Version: 0.4.4Stellar - Fast database snapshot and restore tool for development.
Stellar allows you to quickly restore database when you are e.g. writing database migrations, switching branches or messing with SQL. PostgreSQL and MySQL are supported.
![Screenshot of Stellar terminal window](http://imgur.com/0fXXdcx.png)
Stellar is fast. It can restore a database ~140 times faster than using the usual
pg_dump & pg_restore.
![Benchmarking database restore speed](http://imgur.com/Md1AHXa.png)
How it works
Stellar works by storing copies of the database in the RDBMS (named as stellar_xxx_master and stellar_xxxx_slave). When restoring the database, Stellar simply renames the database making it lot faster than the usual SQL dump. However, Stellar uses lots of storage space so you probably don't want to mae too many snapshots or you will eventually run out of storage space.
Due to experimental nature of this tool, it is not recommended to use this in an enviroment where you can't afford possible data loss (eg. production)
How to get started
You can install Stellar with `pip`.
```$ pip install stellar```
After that, you should go to your project folder and initialize Stellar settings. Stellar initialization wizard will help you with that.
```$ stellar init```
Stellar settings are saved as 'stellar.yaml' so you probably want to add that to your `.gitignore`.
```$ echo stellar.yaml >> .gitignore```
Done! :dancers:
How to take a snapshot
```$ stellar snapshot SNAPSHOT_NAME```
How to restore from a snapshot
```$ stellar restore SNAPSHOT_NAME```

I've seen some questions asked about mentoring here and I've not really seen any conclusive answers on how it works. Here's some more info from a decent article.
Mentoring 101
If you're familiar with EverQuest II's mentoring system, you'll immediately recognize the similarities in RIFT. In short, players can now temporarily drop down in level to revisit lower-level zones and still find them a challenge. In addition, the system allows higher-level players to group with lower-level players while providing a meaningful experience for all.
To mentor, you'll need to right click on your character target in the upper corner and select "set ascended mentor level." You can mentor as low as 10 and as high as 45, and your gear and abilities will scale to whatever level you select. If you're grouped and mentored down near the level of your lower-level partner, you'll both receive bonus experience, and what's nice is that loot from zone events and instant adventures is level-appropriate, so if you're level 50 and you mentor down, you'll get things like inscribed sourcestone. Once you're done mentoring, you can right click on your target again to clear your ascended level, although it's important to note that if you mentor down to a low level and return to level 50, you'll do so with just a sliver of health (I got the pumping heart sound and grey screen that indicates close to death). So make sure you don't choose to unmentor in a high-level zone near aggressive mobs!
Low-level instant adventures
Instant adventures have been available for high-level players for a while now in zones like Stillmoor, Shimmersand, and Ember Isle. But in update 1.9, players will see instant adventures in many of the lower-level zones. A few weeks ago, I was able to mentor down to various levels and queue up for specific zones, including mid-level zones like Scarwood Reach and Moonshade. But last week's test only had the option to join a "random adventure," and the lower-level IAs we tested were limited to Freemarch, Silverwood, Gloamwood, and Stonefield. I was on my Defiant character, so I queued up for random adventure and immediately had the option to teleport to a Freemarch instant adventure. What's nice is that once you join, you're automatically placed in a raid party and your level is auto-mentored to an appropriate level for the adventure. We started out as a small party, but more and more joined in, and by the end, we had a sizable raid. We had several different objectives during the course of the IA, including the standard "kill X number of mobs" and "interact with X objects," but it culminated in a fun boss fight that resulted in several deaths (including my own). After we finished, we had the option of hopping right into another one or dropping out.
Recycle, reuse, renew
What I really enjoy about level 50 gameplay in RIFT is how wide open it is. There's the standard raiding, group instances, and crafting opportunities, but if you just want to log in, get right into something fun and challenging, and then log off whenever you want to, there are plenty of options. Your instant adventure party might find itself branching off momentarily to seal a rift, join an onslaught, or dislodge a foothold. Or you might have a large enough raid that it triggers a zone event, which is a great experience that provides a decent amount of currency and is a lot of fun, particularly when you're with a huge raid (or even multiple raids). I've often seen instant adventure parties end up sticking together to do other open zone activities, and it makes for a great evening.
Currently, those opportunities are more limited at the lower levels. There are still zone events, but they tend to run less often than higher-level events. And while there are still times when you see a large raid force in a lower-level zone, there are plenty of times when you either have to try to go it alone or hope for the chance at linking up with a small party.
Update 1.9 shatters the blockade that prevents high-level characters from doing meaningful activities with low-level characters. It also means that low-level content has a new purpose for players who might have outleveled it long ago. The new instant adventures also mean more variety for high-level players, who might be looking for more than just the same IAs in Ember Isle, Stillmoor, and Shimmersand. And it helps entice new, lower-level players to stick around longer, since they don't feel like they have to grind out the levels on their own if they want to play with the level-capped community.
On the horizon
There are still tweaks that the team is working on, including how to address the gap in mount speeds between low-level players and high-level mentored players. And the devs are also working on ways to entice players to mentor for lower-level dungeons, such as a new option in the LFG window called "Take me where I'm needed." I'm looking forward to seeing how they work the mentoring system into other features in RIFT because it seems that the focus is on making sure that both the high-level players and the low-level players walk away with a fun and worthwhile experience.


text: Hi, That would be an interesting thread to read because most of the dedicated blogs keep wondering what is a netbook :) It used to be a "small, light and cheap laptop". The first publically known netbook would be the ASUS Eee PC 701. This is a 7" wide screen running a Celeron 900Mhz with 2, 4 or 8GB ramdrive. Then we got 9" screen from ASUS, running about the same specs. Then Intel released the Atom and everybody start selling "netbooks", from 9" to 11". Those machines have been shipped with either Windows XP or some kind of Linux distributions. Most of them could run NetBSD. The only issue were LAN and Wireless support. What is commonly stated (on specialised blogs) is that SONY VAIO P is not a netbook (too expensive) but SONY VAIO W is. There are a lot of discussion about 11" laptops. One claim it is a netbook because it runs Atom. Other claim it is too big to be a netbook. Most of the time, $500 is claimed to be the maximum price a netbook can reach. With time and technology (nVidia ION, Broadcom HD PCI cards, Intel PineTrail), those machines became nearly as powerful as, for example, my Dell XPS M1330 (with GM965) for daily (Mail, Web, Chat, movie watching...) usage. They now claim to be able to read HD movies and accelerated Flash stuff. As PowerBook 100 were shipping 9" LCD and iBook were 12", I tend to consider that "netbook" is the short way to say "a small (<= 11" screen wide), light (less than 2KG) and power efficient machine (hear not running the latest 200 cores processor requiring water-cooling and being able to last at least 4 hours on battery) that is far enough to read my mail, surf the web and do a bit of chatting". I think a laptop is a netbook if the commercial says so. In any case, it's just a computer :p My two cents.

Fry confident in new 'Dream Team'
POSH owner Barry Fry has been cooing to the local media about his 'Dream Team' of coaches and management.
Fry, who led United to play off glory at Wembley in 2000, thinks that in Andy Legg and Harrow Boro assistant boss Ken Charlery he has the right people to support him.
Legg has recently returned to London Road after illness and a spell with Conference South strugglers Newport County. It is fair to say his last spell with the club had its moments of controversy, but there is no doubting his experience.
People may not think it, but there was more to his game than just the long throw!
Charlery is arguably the most famous player of the modern era for Peterborough and is in part time to help take training.
I would also think that Fry is using him, and his passion for the club to 'bond' what he himself has admitted has been a divided dressing room.
POSH are at Orient this Saturday.

Last Sunday, I did some shopping at my local home improvement warehouse. Nothing major, just a few household items, a quick purchase or two, and I'm out the door –
Right into a troop of Boy Scouts, who were waiting just outside the exit.
"Would you like to buy some popcorn and help the Boy Scouts?" they shouted at me, almost in unison.
Hold on there, guys… hold on…
Eager little Scouts, aren't they?
Okay, I had to weigh my options. The Scout troop had several different boxes and packages of Trail's End popcorn available – kettle corn, buttered corn, etc. The Scouts that were selling the popcorn were all wearing their Scouting uniforms, and I checked over some of the ranks in the troop – Second Class, First Class, merit badges, achievement awards, one kid earned Order of the Arrow, nice. Ah, what the heck. I purchased about ten individual packages of various flavors. Gotta help out the Scouts.
Later that day, I put a package of the Trail's End popcorn in my microwave. It's a small package, so it only takes less than two minutes to go from flat package to mmm that smells so good…
So here's the deal. We're all familiar with the Girl Scout Cookie program. Apparently the Boy Scouts have had their own fundraising program for a while, as every autumn they sell Trail's End popcorn and other snacks. Out of every dollar sold for popcorn, 70 cents of that dollar goes to local Boy Scout troops. For many troops, the popcorn sales constitute the troop's major annual fundraiser.
And the popcorn is healthier than you would think – about six years ago, Trail's End Popcorn's parent company, Weaver Popcorn, removed the artificial butter flavoring diacetyl from its microwave popcorn packages, replacing it with canola oil. Works for me.
And the sales work for the Scouts as well. From what I understand, a good-sized and highly motivated Scout troop can generate enough sales from Trail's End popcorn packs to pay for new equipment, to supplement expenses related to campouts and jamborees, and fund other Scouting activities. Trail's End also offers various incentive prizes for Scout troops who sell large amounts of the popcorn bags.
And the price of the popcorn bags is quite reasonable. If you figure a small bag of Trail's End microwave popcorn costs $1 or $1.50 if you bought it from a Scout troop, it's about the same per-bag price as if you bought a box of Act II or Orville Redenbacher's popcorn.
And let me take this another step forward – especially if it involves helping out the Boy Scouts. You can actually purchase Trail's End popcorn online, and you can designate which Scouting troop your purchase will support. So if you want to help your local Scouts, or a Scout troop from your home town, purchasing your snacks online is a great way to help out.
You know what? I like helping the Boy Scouts out with things like this.
Even if I never made it past Tenderfoot in my Scouting career.

Camp Pendleton Marine Expeditionary Unit to conduct last component of "Iron Fist 2013" with Japanese Ground Self-Defense Force
Last updated 2/11/2013 at Noon
CAMP PENDLETON - The Camp Pendleton-based 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit this week will conduct the last key component of an annual joint training exercise with the Japanese Ground Self-Defense Force.
The exercise, dubbed Iron Fist 2013, is designed to increase interoperability between the 13th MEU and the Japanese Ground Self-Defense Force, according to 1st Lt. Dana Mitchell, public affairs officer for the 13th MEU.
The final key event is scheduled to be conducted at the North County installation Wednesday and Thursday. Marines and Japanese forces plan to highlight a ship-to-shore movement using amphibious equipment and helicopters, Mitchell said.
That will be followed by a combat training through a simulated town, Mitchell said.
More than 500 members of the 13th MEU have been training with the JGSDF to enhance relations and sharpen crisis response skills.
The amphibious assault ship USS Boxer, which served as a launch point for a simulated raid on San Clemente Island, hosted the exercise that began Feb. 5, Navy officials said.

In some eastern European country, an overweight 35 year old guy sits on a broken computer chair in the corner of his dirty apartment. His dilapidated home is packed to the ceiling full of boxes of Viagra, 'discount watches' and penis enlargement pills. The sly grin on his face is illuminated by the half-dozen computer screens showing how rapidly his pirated version of Microsoft Outlook is sending emails to us law abiding citizens in Australia… with all subjects reading: Cheap V!agr@ 4 you - 29.99!!
Is that how you imagined all those spam emails make it to your inbox? Well prepare yourself for the shocking truth. That overweight, 35 year old eastern European "criminal"… might be YOU!
Alright, I hear you - "Are you kidding me? I'm not the one sending all that rubbish… I spend half my day deleting it!!" But before you fly off the handle, consider this: According to a 2006 survey by webroot.com, 25.6% of Australian PCs are infected with Spyware/Adware or some other form of malicious software (known as 'malware'). Sometimes that software is used to track your internet useage, collect personal information or randomly load ads onto your screen… and other times, it's used to turn your computer into a 'zombie'.
A 'zombie' computer is one which has been compromised by a computer hacker, virus or trojan horse. Generally a 'zombie' PC is one of thousands, or millions, in a "botnet" and will be used to perform malicious tasks of one sort or another. Most owners of 'zombie' computers are unaware that their system is being used in this way.
While you chat away to your friends on Facebook, watch videos on Youtube, pay for your internet connection and delete all that spam email, your PC is being used to assist in a variety of criminal activities - Attacking websites, taking down servers, hosting child-pornography, and more commonly, send spam email. As of 2005, an estimated 50–80% of all spam worldwide was sent by zombie computers.
Let me just quickly sum it all up so it sinks in - One in four Australian PCs are infected with unwanted software (including 'zombie' software) which could be used to send spam!
How do I know if I'm infected?
On the surface, you won't have a clue. The spyware/malware is designed so that the user has no idea their computer is a zombie. But there is software available that will scan your PC and remove any unwanted programs. Here are a couple of freebies:
These are free versions of anti-virus and spyware detection software, but I strongly recommend you invest in some long term protection. Do you really want to contribute to the spam problem and possibly allow someone to read your personal banking details at the same time? Don't take the risk, for the benefit of us all:
So before you vow to hunt down that spammer who implies you need a penis enlargement, take the time to install some anti-virus/spyware-detection and keep your PC clean. Also, if you're getting alot of spam and want to get rid of it, check out my blog post on "the best way to setup your email".

Revolving lines of credit: Loans that serve as an extended commitment from the bank to provide working capital for up to one year. The types of assets securing the line determine the terms of the loan.p> Equipment and vehicle loans: Loans used to purchase new or used commercial equipment and vehicles. Repayment is typically for one to five years..
Commercial real estate loans: Loans for the purchase, refinance, or rehabilitation of various types of commercial real estate. Types of real estate include: warehouses, retail buildings, multi-use properties, multi-family properties, commercial land, etc.
Commercial construction and development loans: These loans are for the construction of commercial use properties or for the development of land for commercial or residential use. These loans also include construction loans to residential builders.
Each type of loan has a different risk associated with it, so there are different interest rates for each loan. Interest rates are governed by different economic factors, the credit philosophy of each financial intuition and loan risk level.

The Sweetest Strawberry:
A man traveling across a field encountered a tiger.
He fled, the tiger after him.
Coming to a precipice,
he caught hold of the root of a wild vine
and swung himself over the edge.
The tiger sniffed at him from above.
Trembling, the man looked down to where,
far below, another tiger was waiting to eat him.
Only the vine sustained him.
Two mice, one white and one black,
little by little started to gnaw away the vine.
The man then saw a luscious strawberry near him.
Grasping the vine with one hand,
he plucked the strawberry with the other.
How sweet it tasted.
- Zen Koan
We do not rejoice in victories.
We rejoice when a new kind of cotton is grown and when
strawberries bloom in Israel.

Artemis Racing has announced it is moving forward with its challenge for the America's Cup. The team's continued participation had been in doubt following a tragic capsize that led to the death of a crew member last month.
The Swedish challenger has confirmed it is now preparing its second AC72, which will undergo a rigorous testing regime. When the sailing team is satisfied that the boat is ready to race, it will join the Louis Vuitton Cup, America's Cup Challenger Series.
"Artemis Racing's decision to continue will inspire race fans," said Stephen Barclay, the CEO of the America's Cup Event Authority. "I'm sure we'll see massive support and goodwill for the Swedish team.
Paul Cayard, the CEO of Artemis Racing, said: "We are working around-the-clock to get our new boat ready, in the water and to prepare our team to race. We still have a mountain to climb, but our plan is to launch our new boat in early July and get ourselves in a position where we can race by the end of the month."
"Learning that Artemis Racing is focused on getting to the start line is truly great news," Barclay said. "I don't think we can expect them to be ready for the first races but I'm certain the America's Cup community will support them in every way possible."
Following confirmation from Artemis Racing that it intends to continue, Regatta Director Iain Murray has updated the schedule to reflect one of his Safety Recommendations developed after the capsize, in reducing the number of preliminary rounds to five from seven. This safety recommendation followed team feedback indicating more maintenance time between races was desirable.
The Summer of Racing kicks off with an opening ceremony on July 4, followed by a fleet race with the Defender and challengers on July 5. The first race day of the Louis Vuitton Cup, America's Cup Challenger Series, remains July 7.

Square, which is moving into the San Francisco Chronicle's headquarters, unveiled its service to the world on Tuesday.
And it grabbed a lot of headlines based mainly on the man at the helm: Jack Dorsey, co-founder and chairman of Twitter.
The company develops technology to enable average people to conduct digital financial transactions, including a small credit card swiping device that connects to the audio jack of smart phones.
As TechCrunch noted, the company has already been valued at $40 million, based on its recent $10 million funding round. And that's before launching the product.
It's being beta tested right now — swing by Sightglass Coffee at 7th and Folsom if you want to see it in action on an iPod Touch. The product will be available to the public early next year, Dorsey said.
The company, which has finalized a lease for 3,200 square feet on the ground floor of 901 Mission St., was drawn to the medley of tenants and amenities planned for the facility, he said. Several technology incubators have also signed letters of intent for the space and Intersection for the Arts, a San Francisco nonprofit, will manage a public art gallery and public events for the building.
"The project underway, attracting not just tech companies, but art, music and basic variety, is something we wouldn't get if we went out and found our own space," Dorsey said.
He expects the nine-person company to fill the corner space, with 30 to 40 employees, within the next six to nine months.
The company's customer service and operations will be based in St. Louis, Miss., while additional programmers will be located in New York.

Central Florida - Disney - Davenport, FL, United States
Our family takes great pride in our second home, Villa Bermudiana at Tusca Hills, Davenport. We are a young family that travels to Orlando frequently to enjoy all the great shopping, dining and of course amusement parks. We started with timeshare ownership, but soon experienced the ultimate feeling of relaxation and comfort in our own vacation villa. Purchased in 2006 and with absolutely no regrets to date!! Based on our own personal experience in renting vacation homes in Orlando, we have worked very hard to ensure that our family vacation villa is very well equipped, extremely comfortable and clean. We have hired an excellent husband and wife management team to oversee care of our villa, and maintain for our guests. They are available 24 hours and we work closely to enure that even those unexpected incidents are resolved and actioned asap. We also visit the property at least 3 times a year in an effort to keep it fresh and updated, just as we would expect for our own use.
We understand that this is very competitive market, thus we want to ensure that the entire process, from our timely response to all queries, whether available or not, to welcome phone call and our post stay thank you, we want to leave a positive and rewarding experience with all our guests.


text: PSX - Various apt descriptive terms could be applied to Hitman: Absolution: Gritty, atmospheric, visceral, edgy, and intense, just to name a few. The mechanics and AI are flawed to a certain extent but in general, you find the adventure drawing you in, keeping you riveted, and rewarding your effort with a palpable feeling of satisfaction and even triumph. The story is a little off and sometimes the grittiness trips over the line into just plain disgusting but in general, the new Hitman succeeds on the strength of its vivacity and punch.

Kimpton Classic Sheets
Consumer testers had mixed feelings about the Kimpton Classic Sheets, but overall they rated the fabric above-average in terms of softness, and said they would be comfortable to sleep on. On the downside, it was the least durable in our Lab test. Though the fabric was strong, the set had a below average tear resistance and had shrunk after we washed and dried them. Plus, the fabric had a very wrinkled appearance right after washing. Still, it fit our test mattress well (even after washing) with room to spare for a larger mattress.
More information, kimptonstyle.com
How We Tested: Experts in our Textiles Lab assessed 19 hotel sheet sets (from both hotel brands and store brands with hotel collections) for shrinkage, appearance, and wrinkle resistance after laundering, as well as fabric strength. We checked how well each fitted sheet fit our sample mattress when it was brand new, and again after multiple wash cycles. Consumer testers felt the fabric after it was washed and rated each for softness and how comfortable it'd be to sleep on.
- Strong fabric
- Fit sample mattress well with room to spare
- Moderate shrinkage
- Very wrinkled after laundering
- Somewhat low tear strength
Technical Specifications
- Fiber:100% cotton
- Fabric structure:Percale
- Thread count:200
- Sizes available:Queen or King
- Includes:Queen fitted sheet, flat sheet, and two pillowcases (sold separately)

The vfs comes around later on and calls gfs2_kill_sb. At this point the hidden gfs2 superblock pointer (sb->s_fs_info) is NULL and dereferencing it through gfs2_meta_syncfs causes the panic.

– designed for dredging and the transportation of silts and sand
The RN Group has over the years developed its own dredge designs – through technical know-how and experience. Converting, updating, and building dredgers themselves also at their own yard, the RN Group can offer dredge services to their customers confident in the knowledge that the equipment gives optimal solutions.
In 2008 and 2009 the RN Group produced, at the RN yard in Grenaa, Denmark, three split trailers identified as:
Now during the month of October two towed split hopper barges as
have completed the conversion into self-propelled hopper barges, also at our yard in Grenaa.
In 2010 two new sister vessels went under construction at the Peene Werft GmbH, Wolgast, identified as:
The first of the two sister vessels Balder R was delivered 25th of August 2011 with the Njord R to follow on 14th of October 2011.
All the vessels in the RN-fleet have names from Nordic Mythology, where the Vikings of Scandinavia had ocean going ships, which were fast, long and slender. The Danish sea faring tradition was founded by the Vikings who were known to be skilled and fearless sea farers.
The RN-new buildings are slender split hopper suction trailers built for operating world wide. Probably the biggest and most versatile split hopper suction trailers ever built!
13 of the 34 units in the RN-fleet are hopper suction trailers out of which 8 are split trailers. 6 of our 8 barges are also split barges.
When building a split hopper suction trailer you build two separate hulls, which are joined together with two heavy hinges combined with two very powerful hydraulic cylinders.
A split hopper suction trailer is of course more complicated to build than a single hopper hull dredger.
This effort is however, earned back over time due to less maintenance, more efficient loading due to less turbulence in the hopper, and higher performance, as the hopper hold can also be emptied completely and quicker by pumping due to the V-shaped bottom of the hopper hold.
The load can be dumped quicker by splitting than single hull dredgers with bottom doors and with very little clearance under the keel, whether it is material from maintenance dredging in sands, sticky clay or other types of load characteristics.
When placing a load of sand for shoreface nourishment, this can be done very precisely and with high compaction by split dumping. After the successful NOURTEC full scale test of this method off the coast of Denmark and Holland, the split dumping method is required more and more.
A split hopper suction trailer is better protected against total loss due to collision by having two hulls joined together with two main engine rooms in stead of one engine room, as the single remaining hull can support the compromised hull.
The new buildings are state of the art vessels, specially designed for operation in shallow waters, ideal both for the maintenance of fairways and harbours, beach replenishment and land reclamation projects. In order to optimize capital, and especially maintenance dredging, a hopper trailer with two dredge pipes is often a must. Our new vessels are equipped as two dredgers in one with double loading and discharge pumping systems which can work in parallel or in series. Together with their own crane facilities and on board work shops, standing time is minimised, which is vital when working world wide and in areas where land support facilities are often not available. With very high efficiency, relative low energy consumption and very high number of workable days the vessels will outperform the competition.
Each of the two dredge pipes has an inner diameter of 700 mm which in total gives a volume area equal to one pipe of 990 mm. This compares more than favourably with similar dredgers of equal volume capacity. Specially designed heavy-duty drag heads are available for hard soil.
Loads can be discharged by backpumping to the sea bed or into a trench through the suction pipe, over the bow as rainbowing approximately 150 meter or through the bow connection to a pipe line of 600/700/800Ø up to a distance of approximately 4 km.
Both vessels are equipped with very efficient degassing systems, poor mixture over flows and "green valves".
The total installed power is 10504 kW.
No heavy fuel oil (HFO) is used. All the RN-vessels are using Marine Gas Oil (MGO). The diesel engines are having an electronically controlled fuel delivery system to meet future emission and environmental demands. MDO has got a lower Co2, So2, No2, and particle emission, which will meet the most restrictive environmental requirements also when operating in the most sensible near-shore areas.
The two heavy duty dredge pumps are direct diesel driven through a two-speed reduction gear with each diesel engine having a power of 2117 kW. The pumps can be operated both in parallel and in series.
On the front part of the main engines, each having 2.985 kW, a 1.600 kW generator is mounted giving power supply for the 450 kW bow thruster and the two 900 kW jet water pumps which can also be operated in series. Surplus electric power is available for an optional extra bow thruster and out board submerged dredge pump on an extended dredge pipe.
The speed is 14 kn fully loaded and more than 15 kn empty.
The design has been made based on some 40 years of practical experience combined with the most up to date dredging technology and environmental requirements. The improved hydrodynamic design with a relative slim hull gives a fuel reduction of 20% compared with a standard wide body single hull dredger and all engines will fulfil the latest IMO and TIER-standards. The rudder-propellers and the hopper sealing can be exchanged afloat. No dry docking is required. If in dry dock our newly developed hopper sealing can also be exchanged without splitting the hulls.
With a powerful bow thruster and two rudder-propellers the vessels are extremely manoeuvrable allowing dynamic positioning.
All equipment is delivered with the technology of the future from leading suppliers within the dredging industry and to the highest standard and quality.
The dredgers have an optimal trim by having the pump room forward giving the minimum distance from the pumps to the bow coupling when pumping ashore.
In 1989 the RN Group invented the first one-man-operated bridge with the Viking R. To optimize this feature, the accommodation and bridge is placed aft, giving maximum 360º view over the entire vessel and surroundings. The accommodation aft gives also less discomfort in heavy weather with rough sea, and you do not hear the periodic noise from the bow thruster. The general noise level in the accommodation is extremely low, as the accommodation unit is resting on hinges absorbing noise and vibrations from the hull. The bridge wings are closed giving protected and optimal working conditions under the various climatic environments envisaged.
The RN Group has chosen to build the new dredgers at a European yard - as our customers and our very experienced sea farers appreciate European vessels built to European standards and quality.
We always strive to be second to none at what we are best at
