Posted on 08/28/2010 12:18:06 AM PDT by DesertRenegade
A growing number of Republicans are breaking with the party's traditional stance to publicly state their support for same-sex marriage, a shift strategists say stems as much from demographics as from the renewed focus on economics and the "tea party" movement.
A solid majority of adults younger than 30 - about six in 10 - support the right of gay and lesbian couples to legally wed, according to a Washington Post poll in February.
But even many older Americans and self-identified social conservatives have changed their view on an issue that just six years ago galvanized voters in support of President George W. Bush's reelection.
Gay Republican activists credit the shift to the heightened attention within the GOP base to jobs and the economy, and by a desire among strategists to expand the party's appeal.

An obvious ploy to try to keep the Christian Right from showing up at the polls to vote against Obama's Socialism. Sorry, WaPo...NOTHING the Obama propaganda machine comes up with will keep us from showing up Nov. 2.
Comein g from the Washington Post you know this is agenda driven b.s.
repubics that go against GOD and HIS teachings will soon join the rest of America in UNEMPLOYMENT.
It just enforces the purge of all incumbents. We ain't stayin' home... savvy?
In the meantime, the ideology of 'everything belongs to woman's body as long as it attached to it' really doesn't fly in the face of ultrasound image. Most people will say that it's wrong to abort 9-month old baby. The ideology doesn't give allowance for 9-month old baby who is still inside the mother's womb.

Where does the Constitution give special rights based on aberrant behavior. Early in our history there were laws in every state against sodomy. Virginia's law had the death penalty. Do you really believe that the Founders thought it normal that a man looked at another man's hairy behind and "fell in love"?
You can already leave your property to anyone you wish. There are wills and power of attorney. To call that anything recognizes a relationship and that will end up being the camels nose in the tent.
The wish is the parent of the thought.
So, what does that have to do with marriage? Or are you swallowing the Koolaid too?
A major strategy of the homosexual anarchists is to demoralize by trying to convince the majority of people of the "inevitability" of same-sex "marriage", and worse. But if you look at how viciously they fight tooth and nail against any ballot initiative to codify a definition of marriage into law, you'll realize the truth of the matter. Their argument of public support for homosexual "marriage" completely falls apart.
Go take a hike, Dawn. You're not a conservative.
They think an army of straw men wins a war.
Obviously their scheme is to create dissension in the ranks of Republicans. Ken Mehlman or whatever his name is, is just a Democrat mole. The GOProud homosexual activists are mostly Dems, as were the Log Cabin "Repbublicans". Try to steer the Repubs left into the homosexual agenda camp, and destroy it.

Hmmmm - the NYSlime yesterday, and now the Washington Compost (apologies to good honest compost and slime) want to do Republicans a favor and convince them the all the other Republicans have gone insane and support same sex marriage! This couldn't be a leftist strategy, could it? I mean, they couldn't possibly have communicated with the JournoList (urinalist?) people and decided the only way they can possible win in November is to split the Republican vote by driving conservatives out? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm???
The Log Cabin "Republicans" were merely militant leftist homosexual agitators, and seem to have reincarnated as the GOProud militant homosexual activist organization.
Other than those Rs with skeletons in their closets (I bet there's a bunch of 'em) and elitists who value cocktail parties and face time on TV and the adulation of the MSM more than conservative principles and the Constitution, Republicans are not "in favor" of homosexual marriage. Nope. Nosirree.
If people fall for this gambit, they are not looking closely. People need to grab the reins of the Repub party from the elitists.
What I think is the Constitution does say "We the people" have a right to form a contract.
I also believe Marriage is between one man and one woman and is a Sacrament before God.
They don't need "special marriage" to use legal wills and power of attorney. Homosexuals already have the legal means to do as they will. They always have had. What they want is their aberrant behavior normalized and special rights. Giving special rights based on behavior is nowhere in the Constitution.
little jeremiah: "Republicans are not "in favor" of homosexual marriage. Nope. Nosirree."
I'll make a prediction right now that future party platforms will continue to have something like this (from the 2008 GOP platform):
"Preserving Traditional Marriage
Because our childrens future is best preserved within the traditional understanding of marriage, we call for a constitutional amendment that fully protects marriage as a union of a man and a woman, so that judges cannot make other arrangements equivalent to it. In the absence of a national amendment, we support the right of the people of the various states to affirm traditional marriage through state initiatives.
Republicans recognize the importance of having in the home a father and a mother who are married. The two-parent family still provides the best environment of stability, discipline, responsibility, and character. Children in homes without fathers are more likely to commit a crime, drop out of school, become violent, become teen parents, use illegal drugs, become mired in poverty, or have emotional or behavioral problems. We support the courageous efforts of single-parent families to provide a stable home for their children. Children are our nations most precious resource. We also salute and support the efforts of foster and adoptive families.
Republicans have been at the forefront of protecting traditional marriage laws, both in the states and in Congress. A Republican Congress enacted the Defense of Marriage Act, affirming the right of states not to recognize same-sex marriages licensed in other states. Unbelievably, the Democratic Party has now pledged to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act, which would subject every state to the redefinition of marriage by a judge without ever allowing the people to vote on the matter. We also urge Congress to use its Article III, Section 2 power to prevent activist federal judges from imposing upon the rest of the nation the judicial activism in Massachusetts and California. We also encourage states to review their marriage and divorce laws in order to strengthen marriage.
As the family is our basic unit of society, we oppose initiatives to erode parental rights."
Adults younger than 30 - about six in 10 - support the right of gay and lesbian couples.
1.Are six in ten gay?
2.Is dumbing down working
The fact remains is that in every poll that I've seen, the majority of those under 30 support gay marriage*. In other words, no matter what we think, we will probably get it one way or another as the older generations pass on.

I cannot understand this. Can anyone tell me >whether it is possible to stably express proteins using Invitrogen expression >vectors such as pcDNA3 or pCEP4? If not, we've been living a lie for the past ten years. COS cells can certainly be stably transfected. However, there are some points to keep in mind. Because of the TAg in COS, they'll replicate plasmids containing the SV40 origin of replication, such as pcDNA3. (I don't know about pCEP4.) For plasmids that don't have an SV40 ori, you don't need to do anything unusual to get stables, but when there's an ori present, the plasmid will be amplified a hundred-thousand-fold, and kill the cell, usually within a few days. What you need to do, then, is linearize the plasmid (always a good idea for stables anyway, because it enhances integration) before you transfect. Even if you don't linearize, SV40-ori plasmids can still yield stable transfectants. I'd recommend not using these for anything; presumably, they have been selected for (as well as the drug resistance) low-efficiency replication of SV40 plasmids, or they're odd in some other way. Linearizing is pretty simple, and I find decent efficiency that way. We've made quite a few stables in COS with no real problem. Occasionally I find that they're unstable--I find a positive clone, but it continuously loses expression of the protein, even under selection. When this has happened to me, I've always lost the clone, but one of our neighbouring labs ran into that and managed to pull through by repeated subcloning and re-selection, eventually ending up with a stable stable. Hope this helps.

Send automatic "Out-of-Office" replies from Outlook for Windows
Automatically reply to email messages without using an Exchange Server account
When you go on vacation, you probably change your voicemail on your phone telling callers the dates you'll be unavailable to return their calls.
You can do the same type of thing with email and it's called Out of Office.
Outlook will auto-respond to anyone that emails you during the dates that you'll be away with a message that you specify.
It's important to note that this functionality is supported in Outlook only if you're connected to an Exchange or Office 365 account.
If you're using POP or IMAP, you can create a message rule to send out a reply to all incoming messages.
However, the Outlook client has to be open and running.
I'm using Gmail for IMAP.
Gmail has it's own vacation responder built right into their web interface.
So you should check first with your email provider to make sure they don't already have this functionality. In my Landon Hotel account, however, let's create an Out of Office message. Select "File" from the ribbon tab.
Make sure you're on the "Info" tab on the left hand side and select Automatic Replies.
It's going to open up the Automatic Replies dialog box and the first thing you need to do is change to the Send automatic replies radio button.
You can specify a time range, but you don't have to.
Not specifying a time range is a great option for an unmonitored mailbox to send an auto reply back telling senders that this is in fact an unmonitored mailbox.
I'll place a checkbox here to set a date range for when I'm going to be away.
I'll be away the 24th through the 28th. I can even set the start and end time.
The automatic replies will reply once for each sender with a message that I specify.
I'm going to type it in now.
This is a message that everybody inside my organization will see.
If I'd like everybody outside of my organization, that is, external email addresses, to see my message I can create a new message just for them. I'll select Auto-reply to people outside my organization..
I can choose to have it autoreply to my contacts only or everybody.
I can type a new message.
When I'm done, click OK. And my Out of Office message will be turned on.
I can click the arrow on the top left-hand side to return to my Inbox.
A great thing about the Out of Office message with Exchange or Office 365 is that Outlook does not have to be open or running and my computer doesn't have to be turned on for it to work.
When I'm back in the office it will automatically turn itself off after the date that I told it that I was returning.
However if I need to turn it off ahead of time or change it for any reason I can select File, change to the Info tab, click Automatic Replies and choose to Do not send automatic replies. I'll click OK.
I'll click the arrow to get back to my Inbox.
And now, the Out of Office automatic responder has been turned off.

FORT WORTH — The offense picked up a little as Oklahoma has charged to a 24-14 lead over TCU after three quarters.
Oklahoma pushed the lead to 21-7 on an electrifying 66-yard touchdown run by Damien Williams 71 seconds into the third quarter. The drive capped an 89-yard, four-play drive.
TCU battled back to pull within 21-14 later in the quarter on an 80-yard touchdown pass from Trevone Boykin to Brandon Carter.
OU took advantage of a fumble by Boykin to set up a 34-yard field goal by Michael Hunnicutt that pushed the Sooners' advantage to 24-14.
TCU is marching and has rolled up 182 yards in the third quarter alone. They need to keep that going to get back in the game.

I've got to say that your pet peeve about physical therapists is insane. What they actually do may not seem very complicated, but the designing of treatment plans is where the difficulty lies. You have to know which muscles oppose which (not that hard), but also have to know which nerves project where (i.e. follow the spino-thalamic tract, and all the other nerve pathways, and so on), and be aware of an large body of PT literature. This requires at minimum an already high-level understanding of biology for starters. They may be in school too long, but the idea that a high school grad could learn this sufficiently in one year is laughable. My wife is a PT and there is a noticeable drop-off in the knowledge of some older PTs, who were only required to maor in PT. (Also, I think we should expect all science degrees to require increasing time spent in school into the future simply based on the near exponential increase of data in some fields.)
However, you should know that most new PTs will be coming from 5 year BS/MPT programs, which make a lot more sense than 3 years of standalone grad school expense-wise.

(1) For normal, utility, and acrobatic category airplanes with direct current systems, an ammeter that can be switched into each generator feeder may be used and, if only one generator exists, the ammeter may be in the battery feeder.
(2) For commuter category airplanes, the essential electric power system quantities include the voltage and current supplied by each generator.
(g) It must be shown by analysis, tests, or both, that the airplane can be operated safely in VFR conditions, for a period of not less than five minutes, with the normal electrical power (electrical power sources excluding the battery and any other standby electrical sources) inoperative, with critical type fuel (from the standpoint of flameout and restart capability), and with the airplane initially at the maximum certificated altitude. Parts of the electrical system may remain on if—
(1) A single malfunction, including a wire bundle or junction box fire, cannot result in loss of the part turned off and the part turned on; and
(2) The parts turned on are electrically and mechanically isolated from the parts turned off.

B Hall was a men's dormitory formerly located on the East Mall of the University of Texas campus. Officially named Brackenridge Hall, it was home to many of the University's best-known graduates, including former Speaker of the House Sam Rayburn and former U. S. Senator Ralph Yarborough while they were students. It existed from 1891-1952 and housed the less affluent male members of the student body. Regent George W. Brackenridge was its patron, hence the name.

7 CFR 274.2 - Providing benefits to participants.
(a)General. Each State agency is responsible for the timely and accurate issuance of benefits to certified eligible households, including EBT system compliance with the expedited service benefit delivery standard and the normal application processing standards, as prescribed by these regulations. Those households located in rural areas or comprised of elderly or disabled members who have difficulty reaching issuance offices, and households which do not reside in a permanent dwelling or of a fixed mailing address shall be given assistance in obtaining an EBT card. State agencies shall assist these households by arranging for the mailing of EBT cards to them, by assisting them in finding authorized representatives who can act on their behalf, or by using other appropriate means.
(b)Availability of benefits. All newly certified households, except those that are given expedited service, shall be given an opportunity to participate no later than 30 calendar days following the date the application was filed. An opportunity to participate consists of providing households with an active EBT card and PIN, and benefits that have been posted to the household's EBT account and are available for spending. State agencies, utilizing a centralized mailing system, must mail EBT cards and PINs, if applicable, in time to assure that the benefits can be spent after they are received but before the 30-day standard expires. A household has not been provided an opportunity to participate within the 30-day standard if the EBT card or PIN is mailed on the 29th or 30th day. For households entitled to expedited service, the State agency shall make benefits available to the household not later than the seventh calendar day following the date of application.
(c)Combined allotments. For those households which are to receive a combined allotment, the State agency shall provide the benefits for both months as an aggregate (combined) allotment, or as two separate allotments, made available at the same time, in accordance with the timeframes specified in § 273.2 of this chapter.
(d)Ongoing households. State agencies shall establish an availability date for household access to their benefits and inform households of this date. All households shall be placed on an issuance schedule so that they receive their benefits on or about the same date each month. The date upon which a household receives its initial allotment after certification need not be the date that the household must receive its subsequent allotments.
(1) State agencies may stagger issuance throughout the month, or for a shorter period. When staggering benefit delivery, however, State agencies shall not allow more than 40 days to elapse between the issuance of any two allotments provided to a household participating longer than two consecutive, complete months. Regardless of the issuance schedule used, the State agency shall adhere to the reporting requirements specified in § 274.4.
(2) Upon the request of the Tribal organization that exercises governmental jurisdiction over a reservation, the State agency shall stagger the issuance of benefits for eligible households located on reservations for at least 15 days each month.
(3) When a participating household is transferred from one issuance system or procedure to another issuance system or procedure, the State agency shall not permit more than 40 days to elapse between the last issuance under the previous system or procedure, and the first issuance under the new system or procedure. The 40-day requirement does not apply to instances in which actions by recipients, such as failure to submit a monthly report, disrupt benefits. Transfers include, but are not limited to, households being moved into or out of a staggered issuance procedure and households on a fluctuating schedule within a staggered system. If the State agency determines that more than 40 days may elapse between issuances, the State agency shall divide the new issuance into two parts, with one part being issued within the 40-day period, and the second part, or supplemental issuance, being issued on the household's established issuance date in the new system or procedure. The supplemental issuance cannot provide the household more benefits than the household is entitled to receive.
(4) Notwithstanding the above provisions, in months in which benefits have been suspended under the provisions of § 271.7 of this chapter, State agencies may stagger issuance to certified households following the end of the suspension. In such situations, State agencies may, at their option, stagger issuance from the date issuance resumes through the end of the month or over a five-day period following the resumption of issuance, even if this results in benefits being issued after the end of the month in which the suspension occurred.
(e)Household training. The State agency shall provide training to each household prior to implementation and as needed during ongoing operation of the EBT system. Training functions for an EBT system may be incorporated into certification procedures. At a minimum, the household training shall include:
(1) Content which will familiarize each household with the provisions of paragraphs (e) through (h) of this section and § 274.6 and § 274.7;
(2) Notification to the household of the procedures for manual transactions and re-presentation as described in § 274.8(d);
(3) The appropriate utilization and security of the PIN;
(4) Each household's responsibilities for reporting loss or damage to the EBT card and who to report them to, both during and outside business hours. Information on a 24 hour hotline telephone number shall be provided to each household during training;
(5) Written materials and/or other information, including the specific rights to benefits in an EBT system, shall be provided as prescribed under 7 CFR 272.4(b) for bilingual households and for households with disabilities. This shall include the statement of non-discrimination found in Departmental Regulation 4300-3 (available from USDA, Office of Civil Rights, Room 326-W, Whitten Building, Washington, DC 20250). Written materials shall be prepared at an educational reading level suitable for SNAP households;
(6) Information on the signs or other appropriate indicators located in checkout lanes that enable the household to identify lanes equipped to accept EBT cards.
(7) Disclosure information regarding adjustments and a household's rights to notice, fair hearings, and provisional credits. The disclosure must also state where to call to dispute an adjustment and request a fair hearing.
(f)EBT cards and Personal Identification Numbers (PINs).
(1) State agencies which issue EBT cards by mail shall, at a minimum, use first class mail and sturdy nonforwarding envelopes or packages to send EBT cards to households.
(2) The State agency shall permit SNAP households to select their PIN.
(i) PIN assignment procedures shall be permitted in accordance with industry standards as long as PIN selection is available to clients if they so desire and clients are informed of this option.
(ii) If assigning a PIN by mail in conjunction with card issuance, State agencies shall mail the PIN separate from the card one business day after the card is mailed.
(1) The State agency may make adjustments to benefits posted to household accounts after the posting process is complete but prior to the availability date for household access in the event benefits are erroneously posted.
(2) A State agency shall make adjustments to an account to correct an auditable, out-of-balance settlement condition that occurs during the redemption process as a result of a system error. A system error is defined as an error resulting from a malfunction at any point in the redemption process: from the system host computer, to the switch, to the third party processors, to a store's host computer or POS device. These adjustments may occur after the availability date and may result in either a debit or credit to the household.
(i)Client-initiated adjustments. The State agency must act on all requests for adjustments made by client households within 90 calendar days of the error transaction. The State agency has 10 business days from the date the household notifies it of the error to investigate and reach a decision on an adjustment and move funds into the client account. This timeframe also applies if the State agency or entity other than the household discovers a system error that requires a credit adjustment to the household. Business days are defined as calendar days other than Saturdays, Sundays, and Federal holidays.
(ii)Retailer-initiated adjustments. The State agency must act upon all adjustments to debit a household's account no later than 10 business days from the date the error occurred, by placing a hold on the adjustment balance in the household's account. If there are insufficient benefits to cover the entire adjustment, a hold shall be placed on any remaining balance that exists, with the difference being subject to availability only in the next future month. The household shall be given, at a minimum, adequate notice in accordance with § 273.13 of this chapter. The notice must be sent at the time the initial hold is attempted on the household's current month's remaining balance, clearly state the full adjustment amount, and advise the household that any amount still owed is subject to collection from the household's next future month's benefits.
(A) The household shall have 90 days from the date of the notice to request a fair hearing.
(B) Should the household dispute the adjustment and request a hearing within 10 days of the notice, a provisional credit must be made to the household's account by releasing the hold on the adjustment balance within 48 hours of the request by the household, pending resolution of the fair hearing. If no request for a hearing is made within 10 days of the notice, the hold is released on the adjustment balance, and this amount is credited to the retailer's account. If there are insufficient funds available in the current month to cover the full adjustment amount, the hold may be maintained and settled at one time after the next month's benefits become available.
(3) The appropriate management controls and procedures for accessing benefit accounts after the posting shall be instituted to ensure that no unauthorized adjustments are made in accordance with paragraph (h)(3) of this section.
(h)Stale account handling. Stale benefit accounts are those Program benefit accounts which are not accessed for three months or longer.
(1) If EBT accounts are inactive for 3 months or longer, the State agency may store such benefits offline.
(i) Benefits stored off-line shall be made available upon reapplication or re-contact by the household;
(ii) The State agency shall attempt to notify the household of this action before storage of the benefits off-line and describe the steps necessary to bring the benefits back on-line;
(2) The State agency shall expunge benefits that have not been accessed by the household after a period of one year. Issuance reports shall reflect the adjustment to the State agency issuance totals to comply with monthly issuance reporting requirements prescribed under § 274.4.
(3) Procedures shall be established to permit the appropriate managers to adjust benefits that have already been posted to a benefit account prior to the household accessing the account; or, after an account has become dormant. The procedures shall also be applicable to removing stale accounts for off-line storage of benefits or when the benefits are expunged. Whenever benefits are expunged or stored off-line, the State agency shall document the date, amount of the benefits and storage location in the household case file.

Facetime on the iPhone 4 is cool and all, but when you break it down, it's really just iChat Video gone mobile. Still, Apple is pushing the feature hard, as evidenced by the slew of iPhone 4 commercials devoted exclusively towards it.
Perviously an iPhone 4 exclusive, Facetime is now available on the most recent iteration of the iPod Touch while Facetime for the next-gen iPad is reportedly in the "advanced testing stages." On that ntoe, a forum memberover at iPodTouchFans found a telling .plist string in Facetime's code over here – /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/IMCore.framework/imagent.app/PlugIns/FaceTime.imservice/ServiceProperties.plist
Multiple connections, eh? Could true video conferencing capabilities (i.e more than 2 people) be on the horizon? Perhaps, and it would certainly make sense for the iPad, especially in business settings. Incidentally, there are also rumors that Facetime integration with iChat may be coming sometime soon.

New York photographer Kate Kunath's series on rabbit breeders captures owners with their furry friends, looking every bit as possessive and enamored of their pointy eared pets as any slightly obsessive dog owner might be. Of the photo essay, she says: 'I got my big break in 2004 at the American Rabbit Breeders Convention. I'm kidding, but there really is a Best in Show for bunnies every year, similar to the Westminster for dogs, without the high-brow. The first time I went to a show, I was really impressed by the rabbit breeders, so I returned the following year with a photo studio'.
'The rabbit Standard of Perfection is attained through a regimen of breeding and selecting, much more rapidly than a dog breeder, for example. Which means that they are culling, a process of removing the undesirable genes from the pool, by way of killing the rabbits for food or fur, or giving them to pet stores to sell. It doesn't sound very pleasant coming from me but the rabbit breeders have a very eloquent way of stating things when it comes to the cycle of life. They are also very professional, as one can see from their expressions. Even proud. Their rabbits as subjects took away some of the anxiety of having their own portraits done. The portrait studio I set up at the show was well attended. I did over 100 portraits in a week's time'. There's a full interview with Kate Kunath on the Feature Shoot website.

Phone referral service promises to free up paramedics
Ambulance Victoria is rolling out its telephone referral service to the Grampians, after a successful trial in the state's south-west earlier this year.
The service transfers some triple-0 calls to paramedics and nurses trained in telephone triage, rather than sending an ambulance out to every case.
Health Minister David Davis says the referral service will help to free up paramedics.
"In country Victoria it's important because in some towns there will be only one paramedic service that's available and if [it's] a more minor case that can be managed by nurses or a GP support service, it means that the paramedics remain available," he said.
"The Government from the start of the year trialled the expansion of the referral service into the Barwon, south-west region.
"It's been very successful and for that reason Ambulance Victoria with the Government's support is rolling out the referral service to the other four rural regions of Victoria."

Bob Lutz: Range-Extending Technology Wasted on Chevy Volt; More Suitable for Cadillac Escalade
Bob Lutz is widely considered instrumental in convincing General Motors to develop and launch the extended-range Chevy Volt. If it weren't for Lutz, it's likely the Volt would've remained only a concept.
Now, Lutz heads a firm that goes by the name of Via Motors (more background info available by clicking here).
Moving on, Lutz now says that range-extending technology is basically wasted on family-sized vehicles and should instead be applied to automotive behemoths, including full-size trucks and the incredibly oversize Cadillac Escalade.
His reasoning makes sense, but we're not keen on promoting the use of these types of vehicles unless there's an absolute need.
Here are the words of the oft-outspoken Lutz as he presented his case to Autocar:
"Hindsight is a wonderful thing of course, and we shouldn't forget that the Volt and sister car Opel Ampera are the world's best-selling electric car, but the truth is that even then it's not meeting sales expectations, and that's because most customers don't want to pay out a major expense for the technology to make minor savings."
"Frankly, unless that customer is philosophically, religiously or economically affiliated to buying an electric vehicle, then they can't be convinced. The first two types of buyer will buy whatever's built, but the latter is a harder case. The obvious answer is to electrify as big a vehicle as you can, because that's where the fuel and running cost savings make the most sense."
"If I had my time again at GM then I would have started with the Cadillac Escalade for the range-extender technology, and brought the Volt in later. The more gas-guzzling the vehicle, the more economic sense of electrifying it. Car companies need to get their minds on that: electrifying an Opel Corsa that uses virtually no fuel anyway and then lumping a huge premium on it to cover the battery costs is nonsensical. Why bother? It uses virtually no fuel anyway."
Lutz had a reason for this lengthy statement and it was to convince the public that the first Via Motors truck, which is scheduled to go on sale in 2014, is worth its outrageous price tag (estimated at twice the price of most of today's full-size pickups) due to the amount of fuel it saves owners.
What's your take? Is Lutz on the right track? Or is he simply digging for a way to pitch his pricy extended-range truck.
via Autocar
Bob Lutz has a point, economic payback will be easier to achieve in larger vehicles. However, I am very glad GM choice the C-class Volt instead, because this is the size I want for everyday driving around town. It would be nice if a larger 40-mile EREV vehicle was also available for longer trips with the family, but that would only be acceptable to me as a second vehicle.
Good point or not, it sure looks to me like Bob is "digging for a way to pitch his pricy extended range truck."
Eric, can you please point to the quote where Bob Lutz says it is a "waste"? All I see is that Bob says he would've started with the Escalade, and moved onto the Volt later.
I don't understand the need to put a somewhat negative twist on it to seemingly take a jab at the Volt.
He does have a point, GM and Ford also need to expand natural gas use in pickups.. its the only thing that will save them if gasoline continues to go up in the next decades
Who said?
"His reasoning makes sense, but we're not keen on promoting the use of these types of vehicles unless there's an absolute need."
Another consideration is that people who buy the horribly inefficient and EXPENSIVE Escalade are simply not AT ALL concerned about operating economy. Driving an Escalade for many, perhaps most of those consumers, is about posturing as able to drive such a behemoth.
Able in terms of "conspicuous consumption" on a mobile platform.
So, for those individuals, increases in the operating economy of the Escalade would almost be a move in the "wrong direction" emotionally.
Pickups are more functional consumer options, at least for many, nee most(?) such buyers, so increases there in operating economy might be appreciated.
However, the Volt does not bring just token increases in operating efficiency. After 6 years and 100,000 miles of Prius driving, with complete records of every fuel fill-up, we averaged just a tad over 49 mpg. For 22,600 miles now on our 2011 Chevy Volt, we are averaging 104 mpg! That is not a small delta, but DOUBLE the fuel efficiency of a carefully driven Prius!!!! And the Volt is a much more enjoyable road car. For about 40% of all plug-in vehicles now on the road, surveys have reported, their owners also have SOLAR photovoltaic panels on their homes, so those cars are being powered by totally "clean" energy for their recharging.
The Volt and the incoming Cadillac ELR represent MAJOR technological leaps in energy independence for this country (from Middle Eastern oil despots), and they are actually functional for the majority of American drivers and their driving NEEDS. Though I have never been a GM "fan," I commend them for giving us these choices.
Ahem, well, I've been harping for years that
1). Electrifying Luxury Cars meant perfect sense, since on a LARGE car you have room to put a LARGE battery, and since the markups are higher you stand less of a chance of going broke.
2). I criticized Lutz's Cancellation of the Cadillac Converj, stating that this would be the electric car's Major Market. (He cancelled it so he says because there will be too many Volts sold and there won't be batteries left for the Converj).
Bob Lutz: Where is the release of the ViaScalade you promised for the NAAS on the Viamotors.com website? The autoshow is almost over!
Note to your webmaster: You need to put much more details, and to the extent you can, pricing info. I know these things haven't been firmed up, but you could at least put a range of prices in so that your future customers (Me Hopefully), can start doing our options shopping.
Bob must be reading my posts and rants!
Really, he's right – as hindsight can be 20/20.
Ford just displayed it's concept for the new F-150 called
"Atlas" yesterday. It's bigger, taller, as aero as a brick
and looks ridiculous.
GM can place VIA's system in it's frame-based trucks
– the coming Colorado and current behemoth vans
SUVs and C/Ks very easily. Why they won't is a good
subject and one we should push and push and push.
An EREV with 20 mile AER would even get the
ball rolling. Ford would be on it's heels. It's the biggest
battle in autodom* – fullsized trucks!
Go Bob!
Meanwhile, Bob is facilitating a Detroit industrialist to
put Corvette V-8s into Fisker Karma bodies bought
for pennies on the dollar. Go figure – Bob's skills are
honed as a businessman/opportunist. Yet perhaps
Tony Posawatz called Bob and asked him to
offload all those surplus Karma bodies lying around.
* in NA
Message to Mr. Bob:
It's not one or the other. Electrify as many vehicles as you can and spread the cost. Give people more options/configurations to choose from. Those smaller cars you say, "don't use gas anyway", have saved over 6.5 million gallons of gas so far, and this is just regarding the Volts sold in the US. These Volts and other EV's continue to save their owners 100's of dollars every month as well. And do not look past the smooth/quiet ride of an EV, less maintanence cost, and instant torque off the line. These things are important no matter what size the car is.
Just self-serving commenst by Lutz.
Ofcourse, we all know Volt is the wrong car. It should have been a cross-over/SUV. I'd say Equinox, rather than Escalade, though.
I'm glad they did the Volt as I know have one that I can afford, not a Truck that I could not!
However having said that GM – Bob made a mistake that they didn't do at least 2 or 3 different types of vehicles one straight after the other: ie Car, SUV, Truck.
They could have kept the knowledgeable Volt team together, further assisting Voltec work in parallel on projects further than just the Volt and ELR.
It is very difficult to do things – actually get them done. A man such as Mr. Lutz has had to deal with lightweight know it alls all his life. And sure he's trying to pump up the volume for hi s expensive trucks. Did he mention battery cost as a problem for the Volt? It's all about the batteries for EVs. Mayhap, as a former Shell CEO, has said, the surfeit in NG should reform to methanol for trucks .Eventually, the market will rule.
This guy's mouth is on his butt, I watched his interview on Schweizer Fersehen by Sonja Hasler a month ago and he complained about the public bashing of GM due to bailout, he blamed the old management, he blame the customers and the only person who didn't deserve blame was himself! Both Chevrolet and Lutz are of Swiss origin and both are junk!
This guy is going to say anything to get his stuff sold, he once said the Pontiac Solstice was dear to his heart, yet that didn't sell, the Volt didn't sell either, and the same thing would happen to his Via junk!
GM must go bankrupt, they are criminals!
I think Lutz is Nutz! An Escalade is just a pimped out Tahoe, so people pay an extra 20,000$ for a name plate, wheel, and trim options. Does he really think a person who spends that kind of cash on fluff is going to worry about mileage, let alone pay an additional 40,000 for the 80+ kwh battery?
My guess is that the Via trucks will be about as popular as the Hummer and Tahoe hybrids.
PG&E and Verizon have already signed up to be Major Customers… So that should aid popularity. Supposedly they are saying the price will come down as volume grows. Also, supposedly they have been having problems getting drive-trainless 'gliders' from GM. And now we hear Lutz no longer works for GM in any capacity….Maybe he can start feelers out to other manufacturers who might be interested…
Its not for everyone but I'd be interested in a ViaScalade if they ever made one at a decent price.

University at Albany students, alumni and some business and community leaders will protest today a university award scheduled to be bestowed on Mayor Jerry Jennings.
Jennings will be honored at a gala tonight, followed on Sunday by the winter commencement at which time the mayor will receive the Medallion of the University, awarded to individuals for extraordinary service to the university. The protestors said the award is undeserving, as crime and poverty have spread across the city under Jennings' administration. Their protest will take place at 7 p.m. at the corner of the parking lot at SEFCU Arena, University at Albany campus.Group members, including the Coalition to Save Albany and County Legislator-elect Douglas Bullock, say the rate of crimes per 100,000 has increased since 1992 and that students have increasingly been victimized.
Anton Konev, an unsuccessful candidate for the county legislature, is one of the organizers of the protest.

Enchiladas, delis and a strip club are a smattering of the places and things longtime Capital Region residents miss. When you've spent your life in the same place, your memories are rich and rooted in the sense of familiarity you feel walking back into the restaurant where you met your wife more than 20 years ago.
Diners did that over at Garcia's in Colonie. Rick Lamparelli, who opened the restaurant and owned it for all its 25 years, hears the stories. That Mexican eatery — known for its lunchtime buffet and post-dinner nightlife — shuttered its doors in 2008 when places like Moe's and Bombers attracted more customers and the economic landscape stopped favoring full-service Mexican restaurants, but people mention the restaurant to Lamparelli at least once a week.
Some are former employees who remind him how his establishment was the arena for them to meet their spouse. They thank him, show him pictures of their children, their dog and the house in the country. When they worked for Lamparelli, many were still living at home, or hunkering down with roommates in an apartment downtown.
A lot has changed for them, but some things — like the fondness for the food — remain exactly as they were.
Past patrons beg him for the Espinaca con Queso or mini chicken chimichangas with a jalapano cream cheese dip recipe. The fond memories humble Lamparelli. He doesn't want to spoil those.
The majority of the nearly 140 comments on a Times Union On the Edge blog post asking people to share what they missed focused on places that involved food — markets, restaurants, delis, ice cream stands. For me, it was Bon Acre and Engwer's — a general store/ice cream stand and coffee shop (before Starbucks redefined that term), respectively — out in Averill Park. Both places remind me of warm summer nights as a tween and teen. The ice cream tasted so much richer, because it was "a treat" for me and my sister after a day of playing outside, or helping our parents in the yard.
For Joel Feigenheimer, who owned Cranberry Bog on Wolf Road in Colonie, the stories are similar to those Lamparelli hears, only the details differ. For both men, tales of what their restaurants meant to customers make them feel like they are back in the dining room, surrounded by laughter, plates of hot food zipping past and people singing "Happy Birthday" as their friend or relative celebrated yet another milestone at their establishment.
Now, they're still a part of Feigenheimer's days, but instead of coming to enjoy dinner on the deck, the conversations are had via email or Facebook. Many times, Feigenheimer will share the memories with his son, who was only 1 when the Cranberry Bog closed in November 2001.
Stores seem to generate these same feelings of nostalgia for readers. Rosebud longed for days when young shoppers got to try and open the "treasure chest" on their birthday at Toys for Joy, and Dale reminisced about Alladin's Castle game room in the "old" Colonie Center, where he spent hours playing Asteroids in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
The Thacher Park pool also generated fond memories.
"My mom used to drop us off and we'd spend the day," wrote Kathy, adding she remembers the diving boards, the snack bar and the upper viewing deck.
"Loved swimming and then laying around listening to the 'boom box,'" she said. "Sometimes, we'd play tennis or shuffleboard too."
And then there were the readers who missed the racier side of the Capital Region — specifically Sebastian's, the Latham strip club, where the owner battled the town.
The disagreements before Charles Rafferty and the town of Colonie boiled to the point that Rafferty painted the building hot pink to show officials, and anyone who drove by, that the building on the corner of Troy-Schenectady Road and Wade Road Extension was still standing.
Some may miss the color, but others miss the beverages (insert a wink, delivered by a pole dancer with double Ds here).
This may not be the warm-and-fuzzy memory of celebrating Grandpa's 80th birthday at Garcia's, but surely plenty of other celebrations — bachelor parties, divorces — were held inside those walls.
"Sebastian's in Latham," said Harkwick the Magnificent. "Great juice …"

Biological Sciences
Summer Field Programs
Rocky Mountains
A field course designed to examine the biotic communities of mountains, plateaus and desert environments in Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico. Your experience will include:
- Identification of mountain ecosystems from alpine tundra to oak woodland
- Geology of the Grand Canyon
- Hiking and camping in Rocky Mountain National Park, Mesa Verde National Park and Grand Canyon National Park
- Map and compass orienteering
- Anasaziculture and its impact on plateau ecosystems
- Comparisons of Sonoran and Chihuahuan desert communities Hands-on videography of terrestrial ecosystems
A Taste of the Program
The first week is spent at the Florida Tech campus examining the ecology and geology of the central Rockies and the deserts of the American Southwest through lecture and laboratory exercises. The next four weeks will be spent at selected field sites in Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico applying the information introduced in the lecture and laboratory to characterize the structure and biotic diversity of selected communities.
The field trip starts in the Chihuahuan Desert of New Mexico and proceeds to the Sonoran deserts of Arizona. From here we travel to the plateau country of northern Arizona with a stop at the Grand Canyon where we will hike to the bottom of the canyon and spend a night within the canyon. Our next site will be the plateau areas and sand dunes of southern Colorado. We will end our field experience at Rocky Mountain National Park examining the high plains grassland, savannah foothill formation, montane, subalpine, and alpine tundra communities.
Field data will be supplemented by videography produced by the class. Field data and observations will serve as the basis of information for a field report that will be submitted as part of the course assignment. Days will be set aside for nonacademic exercises such as white-water rafting, horseback riding or biking.
Travel is by minivan and accommodations will be tent camping. Equipment and supplies that must be supplied by the student are listed in the summer field program checklist. Non-Florida Tech students will be housed in Florida Tech resident halls during the first week of the course.

I have been waiting for these ever since I saw them used by Gucci Westman at fashion shows early last year. So you can imagine my joy when I walked into Boots today to find these beauties sitting at the Revlon counter. They must literally just be in, as all of the testers were brand new and I was the first swatcher (oh yeah!!!). There are 10 beautiful shades in this collection and I picked up the colour Standout (250), although I definitely will be picking up all of the others too. There is something there for everyone!
Standout is a beautiful, rich red colour and applies completely opaque. The formula is lovely! Revlon say that the Matte Balms have "(…) velvety matte finish and balm-like feel" and it really is true.The effect you get from it is a matte / velvet lip but it also feels nice and nourishing; it basically will not give you that dry feeling a matte lipstick would as they contain a mix of Shea, Coconut and Mango butters to hydrate and nourish your lips. The colour payoff is fabulous and you literally only need a minute to get your perfect matte lip on, without having to use a lip pencil. It will come in so handy on the go or when you just don't have the time!
I absolutely adore this colour & cannot wait to get back into Boots and pick up the rest (I have my eye on the purple shade Shameless)! I have a feeling that this Matte Balm will be my best friend over then next few weeks. I also found that the colour still looks great after a few hours on my lips (minimal retouching after food). I would definitely recommend these, especially if you do like the look of a matte lip but dread that dry feeling!
I have also picked up one of the Lacquer Balms that have launched alongside the Matte Balms… but more of that in my next post!
Have you tried these yet? Let me know what you think!!
Revlon Colourburt Matte Balm €11.20 in Boots

I'm thinking about my sister today, it's her birthday. Happy Birthday Gaynor! Although we now live far apart, it's easy for us to keep in touch by phone and e-mail. When you consider that people in Jane Austen's day had only the post to maintain communication when they were apart, it's difficult to appreciate how limiting that must have been, though I must admit that I still get a thrill when I receive a letter, especially when it comes from overseas.
Jane Austen enjoyed a very close relationship with her sister and it would seem that they both had a happy childhood.Their mother and father educated them at home until 1782 when they both went away to school with their cousin Jane Cooper. Cassandra was to go alone at first but Jane would not be parted from her and though only seven, went away to Oxford, to a Mrs Cawley.
Painting of Jane and Cassandra at their brother James's wedding
There in the following year the school was struck by a terrible 'putrid sore throat' but Mrs Cawley decided not to inform parents. Jane Cooper wrote to her mother who arrived with her sister Mrs Austen, to take the girls home. Sadly, Mrs Cooper caught the infection and later died.
Finally, the girls attended the Abbey School at Reading.It seems the education here was very casual and relaxed. So long as the girls saw their tutor in the mornings, their afternoons were free. Imagine Jane's excitement when her brother Edward and cousin Cooper were allowed to take the girls out to dinner at a local inn.
Drawing by Ellen G. Hill
Jane loved reading a wide range of literature including novels and poetry. She could read French and some Italian, play the piano, sing and dance. Her embroidery and sewing skills were excellent; some examples of her handiwork can still be seen at Jane Austen's House Museum in Chawton.

NFL: Turning the page on Brett FavreMarch 5, 2008
So many great things have been said about Brett Favre as he's decided to move on with his life and end his playing career.
But as we look at his accomplishments, there are just some statistics that really stand out.
Sure we all know about his three consecutive MVP awards, 1995-97, most wins by a starting quarterback with 160, the most passing touchdowns with 442, most career passing yards, 61,655, most career pass attempts, 8,758, most career pass completions, 5,377, most career interceptions, 288, most career three touchdown games, 63, and his games started streak of 253 (275 including playoffs).
But what stands out to me, more then just the accolades mentioned, the Packers have the most wins of any other NFL team since 1992. This is a stat that most people would never know.
This is a testament to just how good Brett Favre really was.
He brought the team back to the glory days, in the 16 seasons prior to Favre, the Packers only had one 10-win season and one playoff appearance.
Since Favre, the Packers have had winning seasons in all but three years, two of them at 8-8, and 11 playoff appearances.
But before Favre became a legend in Green Bay, the trade from the Falcons to the Packers almost never happened.
According to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel and other sources, during the physical after Favre was traded to the Green Bay Packers, he was diagnosed with avascular necrosis, the same degenerative hip condition that ended Bo Jackson's career, and doctors recommended he be failed.
It was overruled by the Packers GM at the time and the trade went through.

Rapper Nicki Minaj has left little to the imagination by baring her back on the cover for her new single, "Anaconda."
The "Superbass" hit maker debuted the risqué cover art for her track on Instagram Thursday. (Click here to see the possibly NSFW cover on Minaj's Instagram page.)
In the shot, the voluptuous Minaj is crouching down with her back towards the camera, wearing only a pink sports bra, blue Air Jordan sneakers, and a barely-there thong, exposing her bare butt.
The photo took the Internet by storm, and many fans used the image to recreate their own art, such as placing it on a white tee shirt and reimagining the Google logo, perfectly aligning her bottom to replace the two Os.
Minaj even reposted the images on her Instagram account and wrote, "U guys waste no time … Doing the most. Who did this?", along with a laughing emoticon.
"Anaconda" is the second single off her upcoming album "The Pink Print," the release date of which has yet to be revealed.

Large-Scale Mail with Postfix, OpenLDAP and Courier
Now that slapd is configured, it's time to start adding data to the LDAP directory. We use the command-line tools that come with OpenLDAP and create LDIF files to modify the directory.
The first step is to create a base tree structure with our root node, the hosting organization and an entry for the rootdn. Create a file called base.ldif with the following contents:
dn: dc=myhosting, dc=example objectClass: top dn: cn=Manager, dc=myhosting, dc=example objectClass: top objectClass: organizationalRole cn: Manager dn: o=hosting, dc=myhosting, dc=example objectClass: top objectClass: organization o: hosting
Now use ldapadd, binding as the root account, to add this LDIF:
ldapadd -x -D "cn=Manager,dc=myhosting,dc=example" \ -w secret -f base.ldif
Domains can now be added under the hosting tree. Each domain needs to have postmaster and abuse entries at minimum. To make a tree for domain1.example, create a file called domain1.example.ldif with the following contents:
dn: o=domain1.example, o=hosting, dc=myhosting, dc=example objectClass: top objectClass: organization o: domain1.example dn: cn=postmaster, o=domain1.example, o=hosting, dc=myhosting, dc=example objectClass: top objectClass: organizationalRole objectClass: CourierMailAlias cn: postmaster mail: maildrop: postmaster dn: firstname.lastname@example.com, o=domain1.example, o=hosting, dc=myhosting, dc=example objectClass: top objectClass: CourierMailAlias mail: maildrop: abuse
Notice that the maildrop attributes are local e-mail accounts and will forward to the postmaster and abuse accounts in /etc/aliases. There are no accounts in the postmaster role, so only the root account can create accounts at the moment. Add this domain with the following command:
ldapadd -x -D "cn=Manager,dc=myhosting,dc=example" \ -w secret -f domain1.example.ldif
Now, let's add an account with an e-mail <email@example.com>. Let's also grant this account postmaster privileges for domain1.example. Create a user1.domain1.example.ldif with the following contents:
dn: firstname.lastname@example.com, o=domain1.example, o=hosting, dc=myhosting, dc=example objectClass: top objectClass: CourierMailAccount mail: homeDirectory: /home/vmail/domains uidNumber: 101 gidNumber: 101 mailbox: domain1.example/user1 dn: cn=postmaster, o=domain1.example, o=hosting, dc=myhosting, dc=example changetype: modify add: roleOccupant roleOccupant: firstname.lastname@example.com, o=domain1.example, o=hosting, dc=myhosting, dc=example
The first section adds a new entry for the account. The home directory and mailbox point to the physical mailbox on the filesystem. The uidNumber and gidNumber attributes are required but not used, so they are filled in with dummy values of 101. The second section modifies the postmaster entry by adding a roleOccupant attribute with the DN of firstname.lastname@example.com. Let's create this account:
ldapadd -x -D "cn=Manager,dc=myhosting,dc=example" \ -w secret -f user1.domain1.example.ldifThe account does not have a password yet, so even though it has been granted postmaster privileges, it cannot be authenticated. Use the ldappasswd command to set the initial password to user1:
ldappasswd -x -D "$DN" -w $PW -s user1 \ "email@example.com, o=domain1.example, o=hosting, dc=myhosting, dc=example"Other domains and accounts can be added with similar LDIF files. Creating LDIF files by hand can be cumbersome and error-prone. We discuss alternatives for administration later.
We cover only the sections of Postfix that pertain to the mail hosting. To deal with other parts of Postfix setup, please visit the Postfix web page.
Download the Postfix source and untar it. You need to rebuild the Postfix Makefiles to be aware of LDAP and link against it. To do this, execute the following command:
make makefiles CCARGS="-I/usr/local/include -DHAS_LDAP" AUXLIBS="-L/usr/local/lib -lldap -L/usr/local/lib -llber"
At this point, follow the normal Postfix compiling and installing instructions as documented in its INSTALL and LDAP_README files.
While configuring Postfix for this task, we are mostly concerned with /etc/postfix/main.cf. For most of the Postfix configuration, you will configure in a way that makes the most sense for your site, and you can follow the documentation contained in the Postfix source or on the Postfix web site. Here, we talk about the settings that are affected by this setup. If any of the configuration examples shown below aren't explicitly attributed to a specific file, assume they can be found in main.cf.
The transport table maps domains to message delivery transports (as specified in /etc/postfix/master.cf) and/or relay hosts. For our virtual domains, we want to map them to the virtual delivery agent that comes with Postfix. A transport table could look something like this:
domain1.example virtual: domain2.example virtual:
After making your transport table in plain text, you need to make it into a binary DB file using postmap (see man postmap). At this point, tell Postfix that there is a transport table and where to find it. You also need to let Postfix know that we accept mail for those domains. This is done through the transport_maps and mydestination directives:
transport_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/transport mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, $mydomain, $transport_mapsYou can define multiple LDAP sources easily. LDAP source parameters are documented in README_FILES/LDAP_README in the Postfix source. The parameter names follow the pattern of <ldapsource>_parameter. The LDAP source name is defined by use. In main.cf, you'll need one LDAP source definition per each lookup.
What about procmail??
Have I missed something in your article? Or you have just omitted the part where procmail gets into the picture?
dn of the user objects
Why is the dn of the users mail=user@domain,o=domain,etc? would it not make more sense to have a dn of cn=user,o=domain,etc (like you did for the postmaster)?
The only reason I can think of if to be able to search through the whole tree by email address. wouldn't it be faster to separate user and domain and just search under the o=domain? especially if you have a huge amount of users for each domain?
Re: Large-Scale Mail with Postfix, OpenLDAP and Courier
I don't see a reply to the previous comment. I'm having a similar problem.
Given the format of the cn=postmaster,o=domain1.example..., I suspect that objectClass: organizationalRole needs to be present.
Another question, however, is why are the "mail:" attributes empty? They are required fields and the LDAP server balks at there being no entry there.
Re: Large-Scale Mail with Postfix, OpenLDAP and Courier
Since OpenLDAP 2.2 (I don't know if earlier too) LDAP entities must have "structural" object class. Classes top, CourierMailAccount, CourierMailAlias are "auxiliary" clasess. You should add to each entity "structural" class: domain, organization, organizationalPerson, etc.
So eg.
dn: dc=myhosting, dc=example
objectClass: top
should be
dn: dc=myhosting, dc=example
objectClass: domain
dc: myhosting
You can also change those objectClasses to STRUCTURAL
...by modifying authldap.schema and replacing "AUXILIARY" with "STRUCTURAL" on the CourierMailAccount, CourierMailAlias, and CourierDomainAlias.
Keep in mind, however, that you can only have one structural objectClass, just in case you plan on hanging e-mail information off of an inetOrgPerson or somesuch.
Re: Large-Scale Mail with Postfix, OpenLDAP and Courier
Hi, I'm trying to follow your example, but I'm having a couple of problems here...
in the first ldif (base.ldif), I had to take out all the first spaces in the lines, and when I try to make an ldapadd I'm getting:
dapadd: update failed: dc=myhosting, dc=example
ldap_add: Object class violation (65)
additional info: no structural object class provided
any suggestions?
Re: Large-Scale Mail with Postfix, OpenLDAP and Courier
This article looks abandoned ... but .. I am having the same problem and really don't know what to do here.
Re: Large-Scale Mail with Postfix, OpenLDAP and Courier
Dear friend
Hi and thanks for the solution provided by you
but do you have any solution for multiple servers running under one domain. with the helpof ldap server database replication.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a disorder most commonly characterized by the following symptoms: cramping, abdominal pain, bloating, constipation and diarrhea. Some patients predominantly have either diarrhea or constipation, while others switch back and forth between the two within several days. As many as one in five American adults have IBS, but only a small percentage of people with the disorder have severe signs and symptoms.
The causes of IBS are unknown, but most of those that have the disorder may have an intestine that is particularly sensitive to certain foods and stress. A few patients may develop the problems after a bowel infection, such as traveler's diarrhea. Irritable bowel syndrome can cause a great deal of discomfort and distress, but it does not permanently harm the intestines and does not lead to cancer or other serious bowel issues.
