The Von Behren family Glenville, Schenectady county, New York, descends from Christian Von Behren, who lived and died in the kingdom of Westphalia, Germany, where his family had been seated for many generations. Christian Von Behren was a farmer in Westphalia, served his term in the German army, and died at the age of sixty-five years. He married Mary Pepper, a daughter of one of the old families of the kingdom. She died in her native land at the age of eighty-five years. Christian and his wife were both members of the Lutheran church. Children:
(II) Corte, youngest child of Christian and Mary (Pepper) Von Behren, was born in a small village in Westphalia, Germany, April 9, 1829. He was educated in the church and state schools, and at the age of eighteen years came to the United States. He sailed from Bremen on the ship "Rhine" and landed in New York thirty-eight days later. He joined others of his countrymen in Schenectady county, New York, where he learned the trade of broom making. After a few years spent in this way at Schenectady, having always received good wages and been careful of his earnings, he was possessed of sufficient capital to make the trip to California. He was bent on both business and pleasure. He journeyed by way of Panama, and finding a suitable opening in California remained there seven years in successful business. He then returned to New York state and purchased a farm in the town of Glenville, Schenectady county. In 1862 he returned to Germany, where he married Mary Meyer, whom he had known in his youth. She was born in the same village, daughter of Christian Meyer, a well-to-do resident. He returned at once to the United States after his marriage, settled on the Glenville farm, where they have since resided. Mr. Von Behren is an energetic, capable man, of business ability, and has prospered. He and his wife are members of the German Methodist church, and he is a Republican on party principle. Children:

He Cheated and Wouldn't Even Take ResponsibilityVisitor's Question from a 21-30 year old Female
My jealousy is ruining my life. My boyfriend cheated on me in the beginning of our relationship in an "whatever happens in cancun stays in cancun" type of deal. He confessed to me that he met a girl that he had possibly fallen in love with, but that he still wanted to be with me. This tore my heart apart and sooner or later I got over it.
Four months later, I found out that he had been emailing "i love yous" to the girl and she was planning to visit. I found out that all that had ended before I had read the emails. His whole explanation was that, all of this happened when we weren't "really in love" like we are now. His explanation of the infidelity made me livid that he didn't own up to his betrayal.
This happened 6 months ago, and I have become increasingly jealous. It goes to the point where I find myself want to physically harm him or cheat on him just so that he can feel how much hurt he's caused me.
How do I get over this...can I salvage something here or is it a lost cause?
RomanceClass.com Advice
Wow, no wonder you were livid!! Not only did he cheat, but he kept cheating and cheating and then when caught he tried to lie his way out of it?? Just why are you still WITH this guy?
If he's going to be so open-faced liar about it and think he was completely right in doing this all, it's time to cut the strings. You can never make something work with someone you hate like that. If you are the point of wanting to harm him or torment him, it's time to call it quits. You deserve someone who will love you, who you can trust. It's not him. Yes, it's hard to break up with someone. But it's even worse to give yourself pain every day because you stay with someone who is bad for you.

Iconic, legendary supermodel Naomi Campbell stars in this bright, eye-popping cover for V Spain's Fall 2011 issue, which shines the spotlight on film. Shot by photographer Sebastian Faena, Naomi is gagged and bound, as she straddles the red "V", once again bringing the bondage theme to the pages of fashion publications. The issue of V is dedicated to Spanish film director Pedro Almodovar, whose upcoming film The Skin I Live In, will be released next month. Continuing the film theme, this photograph of Naomi was inspired by one of Pedro's previous film releases, Tie Me Up! Tie Me Down! from 1990.
Dressed in Louis Vuitton, Naomi looks as good as ever. Of course she is no stranger to fashion covers, but is encouraging that she always brings something new, interesting and exciting to her work.

Although I love JP I feel so bad for Ben
Although I love JP I feel so bad for Ben
Ben's head is sweating like crazy. Ashley starts crying and starts to talk, and surely Ben MUST know she's about to do something bad, but he cuts her off and gets down on his knees and proposes. Ashley says nothing, then Ben finally stands back up.
Wow....beyond awkward!
"With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world."
"I lost my dignity on a slippery wiener."
Ashleys says "I want you to know this isn't easy." Ben says "I guess that's it, right?" Then Ben walks.
Hurt and anger. Wow, didn't expect that from Ben, hurt yes, but anger, no. It's a risk, I know he knows that, guess he was so hurt he lashed out.
"Grammar is the bus that carries the words, without it they have to walk, and get very confused on the way." Unknown
"My best friend is a person who will give me a book I have not read." Abraham Lincoln
Well, that ws nice of Bed to say that JP is a nice guy and that they will have a wonderful life together, even if his voice was flat.
" You can't leave something like this on good terms" Is exactly right.
Blow a kiss, fire a gun, we need someone to lean on
okay, i still feel bad but... he started getting a bit snarky...hmmm.
Ashley runs after been and starts giving him compliments.
Ben: "I don't need you to sugar-coat it."
Ashleys tells him she wants to part on good terms.
Ben: "We can't leave something like this on good terms. When good things end, they end badly."
Ben is completely hurt and completely blind-sided.
JP a safer bet? Really Ben???? What a sore loser..

Zonic Vision Office
STU/D/O Architects have designed an office for Zonic Vision in Thailand. In determining the concept for the design of the office, the architects decided to translate the nature of the client's work in the architecture. The firm works to provide Sound Systems and GPS services, and the name Zonic Vision can be broken down to be understood as – sound waves and sight. The architects then perceived the skin of the building as revealing visual electronic signals of the frequency of sound.
To design the skin three different intensities of glazing were chosen- transparent, translucent and opaque. The façade was then determined by the function of spaces within. Transparent glass was used outside public spaces such as cafeteria and showroom, translucent glass was used outside semi-private spaces such as offices and meeting rooms. Opaque glass was used for private areas like the CEO's office and garden.
At different times of the day, different silhouettes are expected to appear on the glazing, of people working inside, shadows of trees from the garden, so the façade is always changing, never permanent, just like the varying frequencies of sound.
The office houses public spaces, office spaces and stock areas which have been allocated to create a relationship with each other, with various shared spaces in between. The form has been determined by modifying a cube. Two volumes have been carved out of the form to create landscaped spaces, bringing the exterior within the building and creating a satisfying and wholesome work environment.
Flanked by double height spaces with full height windows and light pouring in, the overall air of the interior space is pleasant. Grey and white tones have been used on most parts of the floors, walls and even the furniture, but the use of wood in certain interior spaces as well as in the landscaped areas adds just the right amount of warmth to the space.

Heirloom Project
The Heirloom Packaging Tools
The Heirloom Packaging Tools are Linux ports of the SVR4 application packaging tools, as released by Sun as part of OpenSolaris.
Currently, there exists no Linux distribution which bases its package management on these tools. Nevertheless, they are useful for evaluation purposes. If run in interactive mode, "pkgadd" will ask for confirmation before overwriting existing files, so it is principally possible to use these tools in addition to another packaging system.
Online manual pages for depend, installf, pkgadd, pkgask, pkgchk, pkginfo, pkginfo (file format), pkgmap, pkgmk, pkgparam, pkgproto, pkgrm, pkgtrans, prototype, and removef are available.

G'Day USA - Australia Week
To manage water challenges well in a land where the climate swings from serious droughts to devastating floods as quickly as Australia's does, requires the development of innovative policies, administration and technologies.
This experience can be of great value to other countries dealing with similar water challenges, as demonstrated at a three-day forum as part of G'Day USA: Australia Week where Australians shared their expertise in water conservation, management, policy and product development.
"There are many similarities in the water management issues being faced by Australia and the United States," said Grame Barty, Austrade's Regional Director for the Americas.
The United States certainly experiences the extremes of droughts and floods that Australia has very recently been required to manage, and the water forum provided a chance for others to see just how Australia has responded to these issues.
International WaterCentre CEO Mark Pascoe contributed to the sharing of water expertise in Los Angeles by speaking about the water-energy nexus, drawing on the thesis work of IWC Masters student Nathan Cammerman.
In Colorado, Mr Pascoe presented the adaptive management work of the South East Queensland Healthy Waterways Partnership in evaluation and monitoring of management actions.
Research from Australia's Centre for Water Sensitive Cities at Monash University was the topic of Mr Pascoe's presentation in Washington, where he discussed how the developing world can use this knowledge to accelerate their own progression towards water sensitive cities.
Growing recognition of Australian leadership and capability in water management comes at a time when the US is beginning to address its own social, environmental and economic security challenges related to water shortages, says Mr Barty.
"Australia's experience has key lessons that can be drawn for developed and developing nations alike," said Kim Beazley, Australian Ambassador to the USA. "Important among these are seeking a bipartisan response politically, bringing all stakeholders together, ensuring community awareness and support, and having a framework based on markets and good science that drives the right policy outcomes."

Doing this is not the best way. The changes by the rootkit could change the shared libraries that these files use instead, or replace the programs with some of identical size and date that simply link to the trojaned versions (eg. /somewhere/.realps etc.) Instead I recommend something like the following: I used Red Hat several years ago and their package system RPM has a handy option that lets you scan all installed files to see if they have been modified from the original installation. There is a similar tool for Debian, it is called debsums and is unfortunately not installed by default (it could be problematic to have to install it after a compromise has been identified, since you might want to isolate the machine from the network during the investigation). So I suggest you install this right away. Anyway, to use it simply run "debsums" and pipe the output somewhere useful. It will check the MD5 sums of each file installed by the Debian package management system and report OK or FAILED for each. If you have any FAILED, they are either configuration files that you (or a program) have edited locally, or have been tampered with by an attacker (or filesystem error, etc). If you suspect a certain package has changed and do not want to change the entire system you can specify just that package, eg. "debsums ssh" or "debsums fileutils". A good idea would be to run debsums nightly in a cron job, emailing you a diff of the changes since last night (preferably to an account on an unrelated host). If you want to check a specific file and do not know which package it is owned by, do a "dpkg -S filename", for example to check if netstat has been tampered with: $ dpkg -S /bin/netstat net-tools: /bin/netstat $ debsums net-tools Hope this was useful. Remember that auditing the integrity of the system files is only a small part of securing your system, but it is an important one. Regards, Thomas Horsten email@example.com

The Metropolitan Police Department is asking Washington's gay community to offer input before finalizing any plans to "enhance" access to all of its liaison units, including the Gay & Lesbian Liaison Unit. The MPD has released eight dates for upcoming meetings, between late July and early August in all of seven of D.C.'s police districts. Those who are unable to attend the meetings are asked to e-mail questions and concerns to email@example.com.
"Ultimately, the goal is to improve the means by which MPD meets the public safety needs of every resident who calls for service," D.C. Police Chief Cathy Lanier said in a press release.
"I believe that with the input of the community, we can accomplish this goal. I look forward to meeting with the leaders of the GLBT, Latino and Asian communities to formulate a plan to expand MPD's specialized units in a way that will address the unique concerns of our diverse population."

MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for company stocks using the most recent rating from each brokerage that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Since brokers often use different ratings systems, each rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0-1.5 = Sell, 1.5-2.5 = Hold, 2.5-3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months.MarketBeat will no longer include ratings and price target data in its consensus calculation if a broker drops coverage and MarketBeat has received a report that coverage was dropped. Ratings from certain research firms that issue ratings using purely quantitative methods (such as Zacks, Vetr and ValuEngine) are not included in consensus calculations. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.Today30 Days Ago90 Days Ago180 Days AgoConsensus Rating: BuyBuyHoldHoldConsensus Rating Score: 2.572.542.382.38Ratings Breakdown: 0 Sell Rating(s)6 Hold Rating(s)8 Buy Rating(s)0 Strong Buy Rating(s)0 Sell Rating(s)6 Hold Rating(s)7 Buy Rating(s)0 Strong Buy Rating(s)0 Sell Rating(s)8 Hold Rating(s)5 Buy Rating(s)0 Strong Buy Rating(s)0 Sell Rating(s)8 Hold Rating(s)5 Buy Rating(s)0 Strong Buy Rating(s)Consensus Price Target: $60.08$59.64$58.42$57.00Price Target Upside: 5.87% upside9.77% upside10.99% upside1.39% upsideONEOK (NYSE:OKE) Consensus Price Target History ONEOK (NYSE:OKE) Analyst Ratings History Show: Only the Most Recent Rating From Each Brokerage All Ratings For This Stock DateBrokerageActionRatingPrice TargetImpact on Share PriceDetails3/20/2018Jefferies GroupUpgradeHold -> BuyMedium3/8/2018BMO Capital MarketsSet Price TargetBuy$68.00Medium2/28/2018Robert W.

Fellow adventurers of Tyria, we all know the dangers that threaten Tyria. Minions of three elder dragons continue to harass our citizens, and at least two more remain lurking outside Tyria's borders or perhaps sleeping beneath our very feet. Dredge, centaurs, and krait seek to invade our lands and enslave our peoples from without, while criminals and traitors seek to undermine us from within.
Evon has shown himself willing to exploit the defenders of Tyria at every turn, and has started this campaign by showing himself to be incompetent or a liar. Ellen has fought by our side against karka and Aetherblade alike, and her policy will ease the financial burden on every hero who needs to quickly respond to a hotspot or a life-saving escape from danger when overwhelmed by foes.
We are the thin line that stands between Tyria and destruction. Which candidate would you trust to stand behind us and help secure Tyria's future? A liar who would strip your pockets to fill his own, or a fellow soldier?
Make the right decision, my fellow adventurers. For Tyria!
Ellen promises if you vote for her you will get the following:
Research into the events surrounding the Thaumanova Reactor is critical to our understanding of reality in Tyria. Who can forget that visibly shaken asura telling us not to trust our own minds?I'll reduce waypoint travel prices for four weeks' time
I'll support important Fractals of the Mists research into the Thaumanova Reactor explosion by the end of the year
I'll introduce a rotating schedule of activities such as Crab Toss and Southsun Survival.
"When the reactor blew, the world's fabric turned inside out. Some things will never be the same."
Raving Asura: "(manic screaming)"
Raving Asura: "All of us! Abandoned! You aren't real. You can't be here!"
With Chaos Magic erupting every few hours in Metrica Province and now in Chaos Crystal Caverns in Iron Marches this research is even more important.

Unit Testing ASP.NET MVC Applications With Typemock's AAA Syntax
ASP.NET MVCModel-View-Controller (MVC) is a design pattern that separates a web application into three layers: model, view and controller. Model refers to the data layer; usually it's the layer that interacts directly the data. Basically it's a layer that talks to the database. View, on the other hand, is the layer that manages the presentation. The presentation layer here can be anything: it can be a form, or HTML, or XML or any other presentation layout. The controller manages the interaction between the model and the view; it's the brain of the application.
One reason why MVC design pattern is so popular over the years, is because it encourages the separation of concern, namely, different types of functionalities are encoded in different modules. MVC differs from the traditional ASP.NET Webform in that it's easier to change layers. Take for examples if your application needs to run on both web and mobile phone, you don't have to rewrite the whole application; you just have to change the presentation layer, namely the view and keep the controller and model layer intact. MVC also encourages unit testing and promotes a more modular approach to web development. No wonder it generated much excitement when Microsoft announced the ASP.NET MVC project.
Unit Testing and AAA SyntaxEveryone has heard about unit testing, and everyone knows by heart that unit testing is important. But the fact is that not many developers actually do it in their production code. Such a wide gap between theoretical understanding and practical doing is indeed astounding, and depressing.
The gap can be attributed partly to the way unit testing is presented in the textbooks and the way unit test that need to be done in the real world. The unit tests, in books, or in blogs, or in tutorials are often applied on simple or trivial examples. But in the real world, code is often messy, different concerns are hopelessly tangled together, and it's often untestable because it has too many fragile dependencies. So when a novice, after reading an introductory test-driven development(TDD) book wants to apply unit test in his code, he will often find that he doesn't know how to deal it and how to write test.
Mocks and stubs are artifacts that we introduce to workaround the external dependencies problems. The idea is that instead of really calling the external modules that rely on your indeterminate, lousy internet connection, you are fakingthe calls and returning a pre-determined objects. So you are using mocks and stubs to make sure that your method receives a pre-determined input from external modules and at the end of the test, you make sure that proper external dependencies are invoked.
AAA syntax stands for Arrange, Act and Assert. First you arrange, i.e., setup your test, then you act, i.e., call the method under test, and finally assert,i.e., verify that the output is correct, or to check that specific methods, with correct parameters are called. It performs the same function of mocks.
Personally I prefer AAA syntax over the traditional mocks and stubs, because it's simpler to understand and shorter to write.
Separation of Test ConcernSeparation of concern is a well-known design pattern in software development. What is less well-known, but no less equally utilized is the separation of testconcern.
To make things easier, and maybe for organizational purpose, developers who write tests will often structure their test code in parallel with their production code. This kind of parallel setup is great for testing and debugging purpose. However, a complete separation of testing layers is not possible without mocking and stubbing.
The concept of unit testing is to test the code in isolation. But our code can never be truly isolation from one another, so there is always a possibility of an innocuous change in other layers will break your test code. Not that your code is wrong, though, but just that the external dependencies return a value that you don't expect, and hence create a false positive.
The whole idea of mocks and stubs, and AAA syntax, is to make sure that you can test what you want to test, that your test results won't be influenced by what's going on in other layers.
A RedditClone ApplicationHere is a simple Reddit clone application, RedditClone. It has little or no HTML design, and the missing of key features ( such as vote up/down, karma system) are glaring. But I think this application is enough demonstrate how to unit test an ASP.NET MVC application using AAA syntax. Here is a screenshot of the application, click to see full size.
Model classesThe model class has the following repository classes:
public class RedditMembershipProvider : SqlMembershipProvider{}public class ItemFactory{}
Basically, both RedditMembershipProvider and ItemFactory are the classes that deal with the databases directly. They are where all the ORM logics and business rules will reside in. As far the controllers are concerned, it has to deal with those classes, instead of messing with the ORMs and SQL queries themselves.
Controller classesThe controller classes consist of the following controllers.
public class AccountController : Controller{}public class ItemController : Controller{}
Note that they are just a direct map of their underlying model classes.
Unit Testing ModelUnit testing the model is the easiest of all; one just has to access a test database ( with properly populated initial data, of course) to test the Model classes logic. There are no mocks involved, because there are nothing to mock anyway. Take for example, the following two methods test whether the function ValidateUser is really returning true if the username and password match, or return false if the username and password don't match.
[RowTest, RollBack][Row("Joseph", "rtyhdthdt")]public void ValidationTest_Failed_WrongPassword(string username,string password){Assert.IsFalse(provider.ValidateUser(username, password));} [RowTest, RollBack][Row("Joseph", "Joseph")]public void ValidationTest_Pass(string username, string password){Assert.IsTrue(provider.ValidateUser(username, password));
Unit Testing ControllerController, on the other hand, is a bit more difficult to test. The reason for this is that it is dependent on the model as the input, thus it is best if we could control the model's output directly to really test the controller logic, instead of have to calibrate the input to the model so that the model returns the desired output, so that the controller's action could be properly tested.
Let's assume that for AccountController, we have the following rules
- If login successful, authentication cookies should be set, and the page should be redirected to Item/Main method.
- If the login fails, then the same page should be displayed, along with the error message
- Due to a bug in the underlying ORM, one cannot call the data layer if the username is empty
Let's see how one can write the tests using Typemock.
The first thing to note is that the actions of controller requires output from Model, in this case, the output of
AccountController.Provider.ValidateUser(string username, stringpassword)
This, in return, would be dependent on the database content, so we should mock away this dependencies, and fake the appropriate returns to test the controller.
We also need to make sure that the output is what we expected by using a combination of Assert and Isolate.Verify. Here's the setup of AccountControllerTest:
[TestFixture, ClearMocks]public class AccountControllerTest2{private AccountController controller;[SetUp]public void Init(){controller = Isolate.Fake.Instance
(Members.CallOriginal);Isolate.WhenCalled(() => controller.Provider).ReturnRecursiveFake();Isolate.WhenCalled(() => controller.FormsAuth).ReturnRecursiveFake();}}
Note that to unit test the controller, we keep the AccountController as a real object, and we are faking the two key properties, namely, the controller.Provider( the class to handle DAL) and the controller.FormsAutho( the class to handle the setting of cookies). This test pattern is the most commonly used pattern ( at least by me) in unit testing because it has the highest test coverage/test code ratio. And here's the 3 tests that cover the above rules:
[Test, RollBack, Isolated]public void Login_InvalidUser_EmptyString(){string username="";string password = "";ViewResult result = (ViewResult)controller.Login(username, password, true);Assert.Greater(((List<string>)result.ViewData["errors"]).Count, 0);Isolate.Verify.WasNotCalled(() => controller.Provider.ValidateUser("", ""));}[Test, RollBack, Isolated]public void Login_Succeed(){string username="hello";string password = "hello";Isolate.WhenCalled(() => controller.Provider.ValidateUser(username, password)).WillReturn(true);var result = (RedirectToRouteResult)controller.Login(username, password, false);Assert.AreEqual("Item", (result).RouteValues["controller"]);Assert.AreEqual("Main", (result).RouteValues["action"]);/ to verify that the cookies are setIsolate.Verify.WasCalledWithExactArguments(() => controller.FormsAuth.SetAuthCookie (username, false));}[Test, RollBack, Isolated]public void Login_InvalidUser_WrongPassword(){string username = "hello";string password = "hello";Isolate.WhenCalled(() => controller.Provider.ValidateUser(username, password)).WillReturn(false);var result= (ViewResult)controller.Login(username, password,false);Assert.Greater(((List<string>)result.ViewData["errors"]).Count, 0);}
The reader can verify himself that the above tests are indeed a faithful representation of the given rules.
What is interesting is the way we handle the dependencies on DAL. In this case we have to mock away ValidateUser and return the output that we want. Also, at the end of the test, we also assert that whether the ValidateUser is or is not called, depending on the specs.
Also note the call ReturnRecursiveFake automatically returns all the objects and the properties and the sub properties of them appropriate fake values so that you don't have to create mocks manually. This simplifies the setup coding a lot.
The source code for the complete application, along with the test code, can be found here. There are more examples on how to use the AAA to segmentize the layers for unit testing. As usual, comments and feedbacks are welcome.
RemarksUsing mock is especially important in software development. A lot of times we are hindered in our progress because the dependencies we are relied on "are not done yet". Thus mock can help us to write and test our code even though the underlying module is not completed yet. Mocks and stubs are also very helpful in keeping the test layer separated.
AAA syntax does away with the concepts of stubs and mocks, and clarifies the intend of the test code and makes writing and reading tests more fun. Working with ASP.NET MVC, with Typemock's AAA syntax is a joyous experience.

16-year-old Gabby Douglas was under a lot of pressure at Sunday night's women's gymnastics Olympic Trials. She saluted the judges, and 90 seconds later, she soared through the air in a dizzying flurry of flips: a double-twisting layout, a double Arabian tuck and a twisting double back tuck. When she landed, she had done it -- she had won the Olympic Trials and made her childhood dreams come true.
After two days of intense competition, Jordyn Wieber, Aly Raisman, McKayla Maroney and Kyla Ross were also named to the team. The U.S. women's team is historically one of the best in the world -- American sweethearts Carly Patterson and Nastia Liukin won gold in 2004 and 2008, respectively -- and hopes are high for 2012.
The selection process for the Olympics changed this year. During previous Trials, the top gymnast would automatically gain entry to the Olympics, while the other competitors had to fight for the remaining spots during training camp. This year, the highest-scoring gymnast (Gabby Douglas, by one-tenth of a point) still clinched a ticket to the Olympics, but the remaining four spots were decided by a selection committee. Sarah Finnegan, Elizabeth Price and Anna Li were also named to the Olympic Team as alternates.
After the team was announced, they gymnasts burst into tears and hugged each other under a burst of confetti and balloons. McKayla Maroney tweeted a photo from her elementary school yearbook, where her picture is accompanied by the quote, "My goal for the future is to be in the Olympics."
In case you missed it, we rounded up the best routines from each of the five future Olympians. Check out their jaw-dropping moves in the slideshow below.

Our goal is driven by recognizing pavements as assets, while utilizing preservation strategies for maximizing the targeted service life.
Pavements are usually thought of as a resilient material, and significant amounts of money are not usually dedicated to them after initial construction.
If a pavement has failed (more than normal wear), either the pavement had not been properly designed, or properly maintained. Changing the design is obviously nearly impossible, so only proper maintenance can take place, based on specific details.
Managing pavements requires dedicating a finite amount of money to maintenance. Routine maintenance should not be a budget breaker. Routine maintenance will prevent the need for unforeseen capital expenses, and reduces liability to the owner, and people who use them.
With future costs being a variable in any analysis, the need to understand the major milestones in the life of pavements is paramount if minimizing the cost is a goal.
Keys to success:

Big 12 Orientation: Oklahoma's famous alumni
Let's face it- there will probably be a lot of crimson in the house when TCU and Oklahoma face off as Big 12 rivals starting next year. That's just always going to be the case when you have a big, flagship state school three hours up the road that also happens to have a ridiculous bandwagon following. We won't focus on the Corbys of the world right now, but here are the familiar faces that actually attended OU:
Ed Harris
- Nominated for an Oscar three times for his roles in Apollo 13, The Truman Show and Pollock, but my favorite role of his was his first big one- playing John Glenn in The Right Stuff. He attended OU briefly in the late 60s after transferring from Columbia, but eventually dropped out to pursue his acting career.
Olivia Munn
- I still don't really understand why this girl is famous. After majoring in journalism at OU, she's had a hodge-podge TV career that has included a stint as a sideline reporter for Fox Sports, hosting Attack of the Show on G4 and a couple of failed sitcoms. I did, however, find
pretty interesting.
Fred Haise
- Maybe it was the OU connection that inspired Ed Harris to take a part in the Apollo 13 movie? Fellow Sooner (and 1959 OU grad) Fred Haise was one of the astronauts in the real-life Apollo 13 mission, and later flew space shuttle missions as well. Bill Paxton played him in the movie.
James Garner- This Norman-native actor is best known for his roles in the original Maverick TV series, The Rockford Files and The Great Escape. But don't forget that he also did some voice work in The Land Before Time 10. Didn't know they made ten of those movies? They actually made 13!
Dari Nowkhah
- This '98 OU broadcast journalism graduate is somewhat of a utility guy at ESPN, and is one of the few people on that network that I don't despise.
I'm sure they have other famous alums, but I'm distracted watching the TCU-Ole Miss game. Sorry.

Daily Discussion Question: BRAAAAAAAAINS!!!
Here's Your Future.
I haven't paid that much attention to the news lately. It's not that I don't WANT to, but certain circumstances have made sitting down and checking in on the happenings of the world a little difficult, and what free time I have had to venture outside of my bubble has been disappointing, mostly because it has revolved around watching our dear football team implode a bit. However, two recent stories have caught my eye. One was the
curious case of SMU's amateur crane operator
, a situation that grabbed my attention initially as a potential source for SMU Hate, but also because at the time the man was thought to be a sniper and his location was VERY near to my home. The other hit close to home too, but in a much, much different way. Of course I'm talking about the
strange tale
of the Florida homeless man caught gnawing the face off of another Florida homeless man, supposedly after getting high on bath salts, which is apparently a thing now.
I may be alone in this segment, but I totally dig zombie movies.
, while not a genuine zombie flick, is one of the better movies I've seen in a few years,
28 Days Later
remains a constant favorite and will always grab at least 30 minutes of my time when I see it on HBO and
Evil Dead 2
... well, let's just say if you haven't immersed yourself in the greatness of that cinematic triumph, I don't want to know you. Perhaps the most damning evidence of my zombie interest is the fact that I've stuck with The Walking Dead through their non-adventures on the farm, which is sort of akin to sticking with TCU Football through the early-90s out of love, although I have a feeling my zombies won't give me quite the same payoff. You get the point - I like me some undead flesheaters. However, my interest in zombies comes with a pretty huge caveat - I like them because they arent' real. Sure, a lot of folks have joked about the Florida man being a zombie - he apparently would not stop when police approached him and had to be shot multiple times because the first few did not put him down and he just kept going for the man's face - but this is Florida we're talking about! America's Wang! One of the premier meth capitals in the country! For all the grief we give to Louisiana and Arkansas for being backwards, for my money Florida tops them all, so it makes perfect sense for something like this to happen there.
But then I received an email that, while made in jest, certainly raised some curious possibilities. I'll post it here:
Haz Mat Incidents? Face Eating? Spitting Blood? How does every zombie movie begin? Scientists in a private lab crafting a weaponized virus to be used by the government in chemical warfare is accidentally released into the air, typically by accident, and quickly ravages the populace. Is it possible that Florida scientists' accidentally spilled their hard work and that the Sunshine State is ground zero for a zombie apocalypse? Could this chain of events have some sort of karmic connection to the gradual destruction of the 2012 TCU Horned Frogs defense? We're a few months early for the Mayans prediction, but could this be the start of the beginning of the end? All I know is, when the government starts mailing out cyanide tablets, I'm not taking my chances.

Big 12 Orientation: Oklahoma's other sports
If anyone from Oklahoma ever makes fun of you for being proud of TCU's multiple national title-winning rifle team, you can always point out that OU's big non-marquee sport is men's gymnastics- where they've taken home national titles in 2002, 2003, 2005, 2006 and 2008. I use the term "sport" loosely, because when you're performing stunts for judges instead of actually competing directly against your opponents, it's not a sport. That's not to say that I don't admire the strength and athleticism required- and certainly I couldn't do any of the stuff they do- but the only collegiate athletic competition that could possibly rank higher on the "I don't give a shit" meter would be men's figure skating.
The title of biggest non-marquee sport on campus used to belong to the wrestling team, who won national titles in 1936, 1951, 1952, 1957, 1960, 1963 and 1974. It's one of the few sports, however, in which they take a back seat to Oklahoma State- so likely there isn't a whole lot of chirping about wrestling from Sooner fans.

Our Top 9 Get Set For Round Two
There are only hours to go until we whisk you away to Oz again for the evening, and our Dorothys are in the studio practicing their dance steps and putting on the finishing touches. It's been a busy week here at Over the Rainbow headquarters and there's a lot of excitement in the air as we gear up for the second performance show.
In case a house fell on you and you missed it - bubbly Broadway superstar Kristin Chenoweth (yes folks, the Kristin Chenoweth) lit things up when she stopped in this week to mentor the girls. Many of our Dorothys consider Ms. Chenoweth to be their number one role model, so be sure to tune in tonight to see what she had to say. Kristin also took a moment out of her busy schedule to give Daryn Jones a few singing pointers.
With opening show jitters out of the way, we expect to see the girls let loose a little tonight. And without giving away too much - we can assure you you'll be seeing some pop-tastic performances when our Dorothys hit the stage. Don't forget to play along on the app or online, and keep doing those challenges - our Dorothys want your votes! Tune in tonight at 8PM/8:30PM NT on CBC!

Matt Adams broke a 4-all tie with a two-out single in the bottom of the eighth inning. Kelly has had an impressive spring training. He has allowed just five hits and two earned runs in eight innings over three starts. Shelby Miller, his main competition for the last rotation spot, allowed six hits and three earned runs in 2 2-3 innings. Mike Minor allowed six hits and four runs in five innings for the Braves. He retired 12 of the first 14 hitters he faced and allowed just one hit prior to the fifth -- the Cardinals batted around and scored four runs on five hits off the lefty in his final inning.

By staying with the Sheriff's Department until July, he'll be eligible for a pension worth at least $80,000 each year.
Hutchison is currently an Assistant Chief Deputy.

Let's face it, with the recession, business communities languished over the last few years, but here in San Francisco, things weren't as bad as other parts of California.
And now we have an official ranking to confirm that: San Francisco ranked 31st in a MarketWatch survey of the best business communities among the 102 American cities with populations of more than 500,000.
Within California, San Francisco's metro area earned high marks for economic and business health. Only San Jose ranked higher as the top California city and 25th in the nation.
On the other end of the spectrum, five of the six lowest-ranked cities are in California — mostly in the San Joaquin Valley. Modesto ranked 96th, and Sacramento, Fresno, Riverside and Stockton took the four worst spots.
Housing bubbles burst particularly hard in those inland cities, leaving a wake of unemployment and long-term joblessness. In 2007 Stockton was the foreclosure capital of the U.S.
The survey combined a company score, which measures the concentration of businesses within an area, and an economic score, which gauged unemployment, personal finance, job growth and other factors.

Neighbors look to turn heiress' estate into wildlife preserve
Updated 10:39 am, Thursday, November 29, 2012
A movement is afoot to purchase the 52-acre Dans Highway property owned by the estate of enigmatic Gilded Age heiress Huguette Clark.
But it's not a Hollywood star or business mogul eyeing the 22-room mansion -- it's the neighbors, and they hope to turn the property into a wildlife preserve. With neighbors' support, the Weston-based nonprofit Wildlife in Crisis is set to begin a campaign to save the property from development. The Clark estate would like to sell the property in its entirety, although it already has been approved for 10 subdivisions.
The estate, named "Le Beau Chateau," which has not been lived in for more than 60 years, is on the market for $15.9 million, down from the original 2005 asking price of $34 million.
WIC, which according to its website, "provides emergency medical care to wounded and orphaned animals," hopes to raise that money from neighbors and from the New Canaan community to transform the property into a wildlife preserve and a visitors' center.
"It will come down to the people of New Canaan, (whether) they want to see this property preserved," said WIC Director Dara Reid. "This is the last property of its kind in this town. It would benefit the people of town for many generations to come, and it would be shortsighted to allow the property to become yet another subdivision."

Clark, the daughter of turn-of-the-century copper tycoon and Sen. William Clark, purchased the property in 1951, but never spent a night in the mansion. She died in 2011 at the age of 104, leaving behind a massive fortune. With no close family and no friends, Clark's conservatively estimated estate of more than $300 million fell into a legal battle between her distant relatives and her legal team.
Clark was a decidedly anti-social heiress. She had very few friends and rarely left her palatial Fifth Avenue apartment. She spoke only in French so that her conversations could not be understood.
Anthony Ruggieri has helped care for the estate for the last 20 years, along with his father, Tony, who lives in a cottage on the property.
Over the years, the grounds have become populated with animals. A recent trip to the estate found a dozen deer, many turkeys and several flocks of birds quietly cohabitating on the lawns by the street.
Ruggieri said he has become quite fond of the peaceful setting and of the wildlife.
"There's a lot of folks, including the caretakers, who would like to see it preserved," he said.
Preserving the space is Reid's plan. The nonprofit organization has met with a group of neighbors who would also like to see the property preserved and plans on raising money to buy it.
Reid said she will send out a mailer to the residents of New Canaan in December to raise support and money for the project.
"We would use existing buildings; we're all about preserving existing property that we own," Reid said. "It's not something we would go in and develop; we would utilize what is there for the good of the public. The short-term goal is to preserve the property, to keep it in its natural state. Long term is to have it be a wildlife preserve with educational classes, programs for young people, part of which would be caring for injured and orphaned wildlife."
There is support for the plan among neighbors. Jeff Stevens, who lives nearby on Dans Highway, said he is in favor of preserving the land and doesn't want to feel that in hindsight neighbors could have done more.
"Our main concern as residents in New Canaan is that the town is 95 percent built," he said. "And do we really need 10 new McMansions in the real estate market right now? The land has any number of species that have been living there for 50 years including deer, foxes and turkeys."
Wildlife in Crisis is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, meaning that donor contributions are tax deductible.
It also means that if the organization is successful in purchasing the estate, the town would stand to lose the property taxes it collects. According to documents from the tax collector, the total yearly amount the property produces in taxes is $208,202.14.
The property boasts a diversity of ecosystems. Patricia Fowler, a neighbor whose property abuts the estate, spoke about the unique habitats that animals have enjoyed for the last 60 years.
"There are open fields, a river that runs through it; you have wetlands, treed areas. There are areas there that were never deforested. This is an area that is basically wild. Fifty-two acres of wild land. ... A wilderness in a suburban area that has pretty much maxed out its space."
Although $15.9 million may seem like a lot of money to raise via a mailer, Fowler, who is a member of the neighborhood group, seemed to think it was within reach, probably with the help of one or several major donors.
"The group of neighbors has talked," she said. "I think (the estate) will take substantially less than (the asking price). They're going to need someone to come forth and be an angel. I think there are many neighbors who would come through and contribute, but like a pyramid, you need a few big ones at the top. There are a lot of people in New Canaan who are concerned with open space," she said.
Such is the hope of Reid and her Wildlife in Crisis group. There doesn't appear to be any indication that the town is willing to contribute financially.
"It will be a really nice end to the story if we can see it preserved for future generations of people and animals alike," Reid said. "It's really a magical property."

Navy Leaders Prepare For 2017 Hurricane Season
By MC3 Michael Lopez
NPASE Detachment Southeast
More than 40 Navy leadership personnel from Naval Station Mayport commands and the Southeast Region attended a 2017 Hurricane Season Workshop hosted by Naval Forces Southern Command (USNAVSO)/U.S. 4th Fleet at the base's Building 1 on April 4.
The workshop served as a pre-season outlook for leaders and waterfront personnel to acquire and share information to better prepare themselves to help their Sailors and civilian employees prepare for the upcoming hurricane season, which runs June 1 to November 30.
"As leaders, we're here to ensure that we have the plans and procedures in place to execute fleet safety for our ships," said Cmdr. Mark Butler, fleet oceanographer for USNAVSO/U.S. 4th Fleet. "But we must also focus on managing safety of our shore assets and our Sailors."
During the brief, Rear Adm. Sean Buck, Commander, USNAVSO/U.S. 4th Fleet, addressed the room with praiseful remarks regarding previous works.
"I have never seen better teamwork than I did last year when team Jacksonville and team Mayport bore down and handled Hurricane Matthew the way they did," said Buck. "Because of the quality of teamwork and planning from these Sailors, I'm thankful to still have many of them on our team this year."
The power of information and awareness was stressed moving forward, and leaders were encouraged to engage their Sailors with preparedness as a topic of discussion.
"As we get closer to hurricane season," said Butler. "More information packages will be going out to make sure that we have precautions in place, evacuation plans and general safety information, and this will be important for Sailors and their families to pay attention to as time progresses."
"I know we're good to go, and our head is in the game," said Buck. "We will be ready for whatever mother nature throws at us."
The conference discussed plans for HURREX/Citadel Gale 2017, an upcoming annual exercise in which a hurricane situation is simulated so that personnel can prepare beforehand.
"Coming out of HURREX last year, we developed communications mechanisms to get our message across quickly to the people who needed it," said Lt. Cmdr. Jake Faulds, an operations officer at Commander, Naval Surface Squadron 14. "We opened that line of communication early so that by the time Hurricane Matthew rolled around, we were pretty well oiled and able to make smart decisions early."
Along with the annual drill, sortie processes and procedures were discussed to reduce the risk of significant damage to ships and piers during extreme weather conditions such as high winds and seas.
"There are a lot of different facets involved in moving an entire Navy base, getting everyone to safety and protecting our equipment," said Lt. Erik Gardner, operations officer aboard USS Roosevelt (DDG 80). "I think today did a great job of bringing everyone in the same room and identifying the things we need to talk about and be ready for."
For families to do their part, knowing the hurricane routes, having a well-stocked emergency kit and identifying their resources for information like the City of Jacksonville Preparedness Guide is a good start.
"We have a military page in the guide that we update every year," said Steve Millican, installation emergency management officer. It will show you where to go, whom to call and give you more resources. It's like a one stop shop preparedness guide."
Emergency kits should include batteries, flashlights, weather radios, blankets, food and water.
A list of suggested emergency items is listed on many emergency-oriented websites such as the American Red Cross, READY.GOV and the Navy Family Accountability Assessment System (NFAAS).
Another important action is to ensure each Sailor updates NFAAS, which is an essential resource to track Navy personnel and family members during crisis or natural disasters.
All service members and contracted personnel with NMCI access are required to register themselves and their family with NFAAS for updates to current weather situations and accountability of personnel.
