Your charge card bill starting as of late comes joined to alluringly plain "settlement checks." Your appraisal preparer allures you to look for survey rebate credits. You're shelled with TV ads for payday credits.
Gave that you have a lawsuit or settlement pending and you require maintains sooner than later, you may need to search for a lawsuit loan. Inestimable are either work, damage, or mishap recognized. This recommends that a mind-blowing some bit of individuals experiencing lawsuits need to proceed lost wage by virtue of their suit. In actuality individuals that don't have lost pay can at present search for a loan for their lawsuit.
Lawsuit funding moves a rate of the weight by surrendering offended get-togethers cash front against the run of the mill result of their case. With cash under control, bothered social affairs can pay for typical necessities, for example, stock, bills, and lodging.

Attorneys can bundle groups of cases and get advances against the expected outcomes of these groups of cases. This allows law firms and lawyers to enjoy money immediately � money that they can use to pay for overhead and for building strong cases. Once the cases are resolved, attorneys can pay for the costs of the advances from the proceeds of settlement and their attorney fees. By taking care of some of the financial pressure that law firms and attorneys face, litigation finance allows attorneys to take on more legitimate cases � even if those cases have to be taken on a contingency fee basis because of a plaintiff�s financial situation.

lilium flower cultivation
Botanical name: Lilium
Plant type: Flower
USDA Hardiness Zones: 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
Sun exposure: Full Sun, Part Sun
Soil type: Loamy
Flower color: Red, Pink, Orange, Yellow, White
Bloom time: Spring, Summer, Fall
True lilies belong to the genus Lilium and grow from plump, scaly bulbs. They are magnificent flowers that command attention wherever they are planted.
Lily flowers are valued for their very showy, often fragrant flowers. The 6 plain or strikingly marked tepals ("petals") are often trumpet-shaped, sitting atop tall, erect stems.
At home in both formal and naturalistic settings, lilies also most take readily to containers. They all make wonderful cut flowers.
By carefully blending early, mid-season, and late varieties into your garden, you will enjoy their bewitching blooms and seductive scents from spring through frost.
- Plant bulbs in autumn. Loosen the soil to a depth of 12 to 15 inches. The deep planting encourages the developing stem to send out roots to help stabilize the plant and perhaps eliminate the need for staking.
- Note: Lilies do not thrive in Zones 9 to 10 without a period of refrigeration; they need a cold, dormant period.
- For dependable blooms, lilies need six to eight hours of sunshine a day, yet they prosper in the presence of other low plants that protect their roots from drying out.
- Water trapped beneath the scales may rot the bulb, so a well-drained site is essential.
- Most of the popular varieties prefer acidic to neutral soil, but some are lime-tolerant or prefer alkaline soils (e.g., Madonna lilies).
- Grow in soil enriched with leaf mold or well-rotted organic matter.
- Dig a hole 2 to 3 times as deep as the bulbs are high and set the bulb in the hole pointy side up. Fill the hole with soil and tamp gently.
- Space bulbs at a distance equal to 3 times the bulb's diameter.
- Water thoroughly.
- In active growth, water freely and apply a high-potash liquid fertilizer every 2 weeks.
- Keep moist in winter.
- Apply a thin layer of compost each spring, followed by a 2-inch layer of mulch.
- Water plants in the summer if rainfall is less than 1 inch per week.
- Stake tall lilies.
- As flowers fade, cut back the stalks to the base of the plant.
- After bloom, divide lilies. Replant using compost and bonemeal.
- Gray mold is sometimes a problem, especially in a wet, cool spring or summer.
- Viruses, spread by aphids, may be troublesome, although some cultivars are virus-tolerant.
- Red lily beetles, slugs, and snails may occur.
- Deer, rabbits, voles, and groundhogs may eat entire plants. Consider a wire cage for bulbs if this seems to be an issue where you live.
Displaying Lilies in Vases
- Lilies make wonderful cut flowers. Choose lilies with buds that are just about to open, not tight and green, witha bit of the flower color showing.
- As soon as you get lilies inside, trim the stem ends an inch or so, making a diagonal cut with a sharp knife.
- If you worry that the orange pollen of lilies might cause stains, simply snip off the stamens in the flower's center.
- Before arranging in a vase, remove the lower leaves on the stems so that no foliage will be underwater.
- A good lily arrangement will last 2 or more weeks. Change the water every few days.
- To help prolong the life, add cut-flower food to the water. Lilies require only half the amount of food recommended for other flowers.
Recommended Varieties
Of the nine divisions of classification, Asiatic and Oriental are the most popular with gardeners.
- Asiatic lilies are the earliest to bloom and the easiest to grow. Hybrids come in pure white, pinks, vivid yellows, oranges, and reds; heights are from one to six feet. Intense breeding has erased much of the Asiatics' fragrance, but in spite of their lack of perfume, they are a favorite with floral arrangers.
- Oriental hybrids bloom in mid- to late summer, just when Asiatic lilies are beginning to fade. From tiny two-footers to towering eight-foot-tall giants, Orientals are always a striking choice (the shorter ones are great for patio beds or container gardens). Adored for their intoxicating fragrance that intensifies after dark, Oriental lilies produce masses of huge white, pink, red, or bi-color blooms. They make wonderful cut flowers that will fill even the largest of rooms with their spicy scents.

Looks like Georgetown only wants one if you are transferring into Georgetown from another Law School. If I am mistaken, could someone kindly point me in the right direction of their Dean's Cert. form?Thank you All
I didnt see this on Harvard's app?
nobtw, tecmo bowl KICKS ASS!! Bo jackson was freaking unstoppable. The 49ers were the best tho. There was a play that was unstoppable.
Do you think I could ask the Dean of Undergrad Advising in my specific college? I worked with her very closely in a student organization and she also knows of a specific academic honor I received that she would be able to fill out the 'additional info' section at the bottom (I'm looking at Stanford's).I'm just not sure if this is ideal for the top half of the form since she's not Judicial Affairs or Registration/Records or even the head Dean of the business College. Would it be inappropriate to have it filled out be two different people?

MIDDLEBURY — Until recentÂly, Martha Rainville's presence in a room would command either great trepidation or intense joy among those who would hang on her every word.
As adjutant general of the Vermont National Guard, it was Maj. Gen. Rainville's duty to send troops off to battle zones and make somber walks to a podium to release the names of Vermont soldiers killed during the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
On the other hand, Rainville presided over many a repatriation ceremony, at which soldiers and their families celebrated joyful reunions.
Rainville last month traded in her military fatigues for some civilian attire en route to what she hopes will be a new career serving the public — as Vermont's lone U.S. House member in Washington, D.C.

BRISTOL — Vermont State Police arrested Bristol police officer Shawn Dillon on Friday and charged him with fraud in connection with an application for a $350,000 home mortgage.
Dillon, a Bristol resident, resigned from the Bristol Police Department on Saturday. He had been on the force for just under two years, according to Bristol Police Chief Kevin Gibbs.
According to VSP, Dillon, 28, had claimed on an application for a home mortgage that he was a state police trooper. He had applied for such a job, but had been denied the position.
Troopers arrested Dillon on Friday morning and charged him with fraud and resisting arrest. He was arraigned in Chittenden District Court Friday afternoon and released on conditions, including that he not contact witnesses. He is scheduled to appear before Judge Edward Cashman in that court on May 17.

Blocking 3-pointers consistently is not an easy job, but James Johnson has to do it.
The most recent entrant into the Top Plays Theatre for his ability with the basketball, Johnson is even better on the other side. Since being called up from a D-League stint in late December, he has developed a habit of annoying the best shooters on the wings and in the corners. He is a good shot blocker inside the arc, but shooters aren't any safer from deep.
VIDEO: James Johnson carves out his niche for the Grizzlies on the defensive perimeter
As Kevin Durant and James Harden found out multiple times, the 6-foot-9 Johnson has the activity level of a young Gerald Wallace (you don't earn the nickname "Crash" for nothing) and Josh Smith, using any opportunity to terrorize whoever tries to launch from deep. When a shooter crouches to get in position, he takes it personal, using short powerful bursts and exquisite timing to close space fast.
He does this without fouling, which is perhaps the rub. Many players have the ability. A few have the willingness. But how many are skillful enough to keep pulling it off? James Johnson may not be a household moniker (outside of Memphis anyway), but you better believe that opposing coaches know who he is. The name may be plain, but the man has game.

Hope graduate Mike Rodgers of Saline, Mich. started and pitched six shutout innings in Moscow, Russia as "Team Rodgers" posted a 2-0 victory in a split squad game against the Russian National Team. Russian pitcher and Minnesota Twins minor leaguer Nikolay Lobanov finished off the last three innings without giving up a run for the combined shutout.
Rodgers was part of a U.S. pitching delegation that traveled to Russia for a series of games intended to prepare the Russian National Team for the European Championships, Europe's qualifier to the 2008 Summer Olympic Games.
He pitched in three games, twice in relief covering five innings and the start.
Rodgers was invited to be part of the U.S. pitching corp by the Iowa-based Russian International Baseball. The first-ever John Quincy Adams-American Labor Day Series is sponsored by the Russian Olympic Committee and the Russian Baseball Federation.
The tournament marks the 20th anniversary of Russian baseball and is also the Bicentennial of official diplomatic relations between the United States and Russia. The tournament honors former United State President John Quincy Adams who was the first U.S. minister to Russia in 1809.
The other America players are pitchers from the American Association of Independent Professional Baseball. The group is the first professional U.S. baseball-playing delegation to travel to Russia since 1989. Became became an official Russian sports in 1987.
Russian International Baseball (RIB) was founded in 1993 in Sioux City, Iowa to further the state of the game of baseball in its early years in the former Soviet Union. The organization assists Russia in the areas of developing and advancing their baseball programs through coaching, clinics, equipment, marketing and sponsorships.
The right-handed Rodgers was voted the most valuable pitcher in the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association (MIAA) last spring. He posted a 7-3 record with a 2.42 earned run average with 69 strikeouts over 70 innings. He maintained a 1.15 ERA in conference games winning seven of eight decisions. His victory in Prague was over the Czech National Team.
"Mike was chosen for his prowess on the mound in his senior season and for his international experience as he traveled to the Czech Republic," said Bob Protexter, founder and president of the Russian International Baseball.
The Russian Baseball Federation will be providing meals and housing for the players at the Planernaya Olympic Center, in addition to round trip tickets from the United States. There will also be a Cultural Program day with trips to the Kremlin, Red Square, and the Olympic Stadium from the 1980 Summer Olympic Games.
The Planernaya Olympic Center in Moscow, Russia is an equestrian center where World Class competitions are held in the summer, and where World Class cross country competitions are held in the winter. The housing complex is an Olympic style 200 bed facility complete with cafeteria.
An accounting major at Hope, Rodgers will begin his professional career as a staff auditor for a Grand Rapids firm this fall.

"We are thrilled the Delaware Handicap has received Grade I status, and we would like to thank the American Graded Stakes Committee for this recognition," said Senior Vice-President Michael Vild. "The most recent renewals have solidified the position of the Delaware Handicap as the filly and mare summer classic on the national calendar. Through the decades, the Delaware Handicap has proven to be a pivotal stepping stone on the road to the filly and mare championship, and the most recent renewals of the race have certainly met, if not surpassed, the standards of that tradition. This is a great moment for the race, the track and everybody who has ever been a part of the Delaware Handicap tradition."
The Delaware Handicap has been an important date on the calendar for fillies and mare since the race was inaugurated in 1937. In 1953, the Del 'Cap became the first race in the world to offer a purse of $100,000 or more in the filly and mare division. Seventeen eventual filly and mare champions have won the race including Marica, Kiss Me Kate, Grecian Queen, Parlo, Open Fire, Straight Deal, Susan's Girl, Our Mims, Late Bloomer, Relaxing and Fleet Indian.
The date for the 2013 renewal has not been set, but will likely be in mid-July. The 2013 stakes schedule will likely be announced in February.

text: rgb, I was thinking more along the lines of a cluster - not a grid. This makes the problem a bit easier. but as always the devil is in the details. My thought was to have a some sort of file system in the cluster (pick your poison) with the ability to mount it on the user's desktop (NFS, CIFS, or whatever). Then the user would create their input files and put them on the cluster storage (for the Windows users they just drag the directory to a new drive). Then they enter a URL in the browser, log-in, tell the browser which application they are using, where the files are located, how many processors they want, and off the job goes. They could also use the same webpage to track the jobs - how long has it been running, etc.? You could even put diagnostics in there - if the nodes swap then tell the user to try more processors next time to speed up the job. You can also report back statistics if you want to - how long the job took, how much IO was used, how much disk space was used, etc. This might not tell the novice user too much, but it might tell the admin something if there is a problem or it might tell the user or admin that in the future they might need a system with more IO, or a higher performing interconnect. The reason that I like the browser idea is that virtually every potential cluster user has used a browser before. In most cases they have even used webmail or some sort of web site that requires logging in and entering data into a field. It's also very portable - it's web based. Maybe, it's just me, but I find this idea much better than just hitting a button that says "Run". This at least forces the user to think a bit about what they are doing instead of playing "Monkey hit the Button." There are examples of times when people should have taken a few moments to think about what they were doing instead of blindly just doing it. Plus, now it's not dependent on the ISV's putting a "Run" button in their GUI's (I'm amazed at the reluctance of ISV's to change virtually anything in their code base - but that's another rant :) ). Perhaps I'm not thinking as broadly as Rich. But I see a web-base solution as a better idea than asking (or forcing) ISV's to put some new code in their applications to run on a cluster (BTW - in my experience some customers use the GUIs that come with ISV codes and some don't.).

It's Wednesday in Barcelona at the Mobile World Congress, which means that most of the news is up and out and things are starting to wind down. This event officially turns out the lights tomorrow, but most people tend to be on their way today.
Not for Microsoft Corp., however. They are taking full advantage of the leap year.
The company will be releasing Windows 8, or at least a consumer preview version of Windows 8, later this afternoon local time. It will be the first time that Joe Public will get the opportunity to road test the operating system that the Bill Gates-founded software firm is hoping will add a bit of spark to the Microsoft empire.
The core idea behind Windows 8 is that it will run on desktops, laptops, tablets and smartphones, and so connect the dots between areas of the business that Microsoft has been lagging behind on in recent years.
The general perception is that Windows 8 is a make-or-break opportunity for the software maker that has had less success than its rivals in the mobile field.
Microsoft is keen to grab a bigger share of a mobile-device market that is eating into PC sales.
There is no official release date for Windows 8, although some tech blogs have been suggesting that a release in September or October could be likely.
Next week, Apple Inc. is widely expected to unveil the iPad3 at an event in California.
However much of this beta version of Windows 8 captures the imagination of the mobile world, and beyond, it seems inevitable that Apple's announcement next week will run roughshod over the Redmond, Wash. company's best efforts.

WordPress Rocks!
I have been increasingly impressed, over the last couple of years, of the overall utility that WordPress provides for website developers. When I first started to use it, I only accessed the basic layer of usefulness, and used it as a backend for my blog. But it has proven itself to be robust enough to be easily used as a CMS for individuals and Small/Medium Businesses that want an interactive website but don't have the time/budget to get something completely custom created for them. On the other side of the spectrum, as a developer WordPress can also make my job much easier by giving me... Read More

Near professional quality at affordable price. Pure pigments, including cadmiums. Hues carefully formulated to provide authenic tints and right masstone, undertone, and mixtures. Strong adhesion and "buttery" texture.
Color Swatches created using heavy application/medium application/50% tint and were applied on acrylic primed canvas (7 oz) material.
polychlorinated copper(II) phthalocyanine
C32H3Cl13CuN8 to C32HCl15CuN8 or C32H16CuN8Cl15 (PG7) or C32Br6Cl10CuN8 (PG36)
Phthalo Green is a transparent, cool, bright, high intensity color used in oil and acrylics. It comes from a Phthalocyanine Blue pigment where most of the hydrogen atoms have been replaced with chlorine, forming highly stable molecules. It has similar pigment properties and permanence to Phthalo Blue. It is slow drying and an excellent base color for mixing a range of bright greens. Phthalo Green is considered a very good alternative to Viridian because it is intense and mixes well and can be used to emphasize mineral colors in various tints. However, its tinting strength is very high, so it can overpower other colors. This pigment most closely resembles the discontinued and toxic Verdigris.
Phthalo Greens are completely lightfast and resistant to alkali, acids, solvents, heat, and ultraviolet radiation. They are currently used in inks, coatings, and many plastics due to their stability and are considered a standard pigment in printing ink and the packaging industry.
Phthalo Green has no significant hazards, but it contained PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls) until 1982.
This bright blue-green was developed in 1935 and has been in use since 1938.
Bocour Green, Cyan Green, Intense Green, Monastral Green, Phthalocyanine Green, Rembrandt Green, Thalo Green, Winsor Green.
organic, monoazo
This Hansa yellow is a transparent yellow. It has great brightness and tinting strength and its drying time ranges from average to slow.
Hansa Yellow makes more intense tints and cleaner secondaries than Cadmium Yellows, especially when mixed with other organic or modern colors like Phthalo Blue and Green. Because they are more transparent, they have great value as glazing colors.
This Hansa Yellow has fair to good permanence, particularly in the lighter shades.
Hansa Yellow has no significant acute hazards, though its chronic hazards have not been well studied.
Hansa Yellows were first made in Germany just before WW1 from a series of synthetic dyestuffs called Pigment Yellow. They were intended to be a synthetic replacement for Cadmium Yellow.
Arylamide Yellow, Arylide, Arylide Yellow, Azo, Brilliant Yellow, Monoazo, Monolite Yellow, Permanent Yellow.
charred animal bone
carbon + calcium phosphate
C + Ca3(PO4)2 or C × CaPO4
Ivory Black is a cool, semi-transparent blue-black with a slight brownish undertone and average tinting strength. It mixes well with any color, and creates a range of dull greens when mixed with yellow. It has good properties for use in oil, can be slow to dry in oil form, and should never be used in underpainting or frescoing. Ivory Black is denser than Lamp Black.
Ivory Black is very lightfast and has good permanence, though it is considered the least permanent of the major black pigments.
Ivory Black has no significant hazards.
Ivory Black is a carbon based black first named as Elephantium, and described in the 4th century BCE as produced by heating ivory scraps in clay pots to reduce the ivory or bone to charcoal. The deviation in names is because the more expensive varieties of this pigment were made by burning ivory, and the less expensive ones by burning animal bone. In the 19th century, the name Ivory Black was finally permitted to be applied to Carbon Black pigments made from bone. True Ivory Black is rare in modern times due to the protection of ivory, and the synthetic variety produced today was discovered in 1929. Bone Black is produced as an industrial pigment.
Animal Black, Blue Black, Bone Black. Paris Black is an inferior grade of Ivory Black. Incorrectly labeled as Frankfort Black.
titanium dioxide
Buff Titanium is an warm, reddish, off-white pigment that shares the properties of Titanium White, including opacity and slow drying time.
Buff Titanium is lightfast and permanant.
Titanium dioxide and iron oxide are naturally occuring and are abundant in the Earth's crust. Both are considered non-toxic. Particle sizes tend to be larger in Unbleached Titanium than for titanium dioxide pigments used in white paints.
Titanium dioxide often occurs in nature with iron oxide. Buff or unbleached titanium is a natural mineral form of titanium dioxide. A variety of processes are used to produce buff or unbleached titanium. Some manufacturers may add synthetic iron oxides to a titanium base, while others use naturally occuring titanium ores that contain impurities. In this respect, Buff Titanium or Unbleached Titanium is a color that that may vary from one manufacturer to another.
Off-White, Unbleached Titanium.

Moving in a Geometric Shape Together
From FIRE Wiki
This is a lab that follows after Lesson 8 of the Lesson Curriculum. One robot creates a library of parameterized macro actions - to trace geometric shapes such as triangles and squares. These macro actions are then communicated to another robot. The first robot then selects a geometric shape to perform and communicates the action to the second robot. Both robots then perform the same action - moving in a geometric shape together.
This lab's purpose is both to reinforce Lessons 1-8, and also to allow students to think about how what geometric shapes are, and how they can be traced by a robot through action commands. For example, tracing an equilateral triangle (with internal angles of 60 degrees) requires the robot to turn 120 degrees.

I've always > used MPICH (I never liked lam), and just recently heard about OpenMPI. > Anyone here using it? > > I use OpenMPI since a few months and run programs like Abinit, Siesta with success every days (on a small IB cluster - 100 opteron cores under linux). I have done some comparisons using M(VA)PICH(2) on IB instead of OpenMPI and haven't seen any great differences ; the performances are comparable, for example on a Alltoall, depending on the message size, sometimes MVAPICH is better, sometimes OpenMPI is better. Also, I have to said that OpenMPI is quite appealing because of its ease of use, a very good web site (FAQs, mailing list), and has several advantages : it is well integrated with a PBS-like batch system, a same binary can run on different networks (IB, ethernet) without recompiling or reliking your application, and there are some possibilities to exploit numa placement of the tasks, on these last two points I'm not sure that MPICH can do the same. But, as the other guys have said before, it is very useful to have the two implementations on the same cluster. Another thing : my own experience shows that ISVs usually send you a binary which is compatible with mpich or mpich2, but not with OpenMPI. Bye Phil.

It's *extremely* important to not repeat incorrect rumors. There are ~ 1,200 DS10Ls in racks of 32 at CPlant, and there are no heat problems.

Yes, they do. The intent is for the DS10L to faithfully track the DS10 -- they share the same motherboard. -- greg

Welcome to the Alternative Dispute Resolution Society (ADR Society) website. The purpose of the ADR Society is to enhance the education of students attending Touro Law Center by providing practical knowledge of alternative dispute resolution through discussions, role playing, networking events, and professional training. The ADR Society also organizes events to expose students to the use of skills that are alternatives to litigation, such as arbitration, negotiation and mediation. Students are given the opportunity to put the skills they acquire into practice by participating in intra-school and national level competitions sponsored by the American Bar Association.
Alternative dispute resolution is a rapidly growing field and utilizes a universal skill set that is essential to advocating your client's interests and solving problems effectively. Thus, the Alternative Dispute Resolution Society benefits all law students, even those interested solely in traditional law practice. All students are encouraged to become members of the ADR Society and participate in its array of activities.
For upcoming news and events please be sure to add the Alternative Dispute Resolution Society to your TWEN Page on Westlaw. We look forward to seeing you at our planned events.
Best of luck this academic year!

Henry A. Wallace
Jump to navigation Jump to search
Henry A. Wallace (October 7, 1888 – November 18, 1965) was an American economist and politician. He was the thirty-third Vice President of the United States (1941–45), the eleventh Secretary of Agriculture (1933–40), and the tenth Secretary of Commerce (1945–46). In the 1948 presidential election, Wallace was the nominee of the Progressive Party.

- The dangerous American fascist is the man who wants to do in the United States in an American way what Hitler did in Germany in a Prussian way. The American fascist would prefer not to use violence. His method is to poison the channels of public information. With a fascist the problem is never how best to present the truth to the public but how best to use the news to deceive the public into giving the fascist and his group more money or more power.
If we define an American fascist as one who in case of conflict puts money and power ahead of human beings, then there are undoubtedly several million fascists in the United States. There are probably several hundred thousand if we narrow the definition to include only those who in their search for money and power are ruthless and deceitful. Most American fascists are enthusiastically supporting the war effort.
- "The Danger of American Fascism," in New York Times, April 9, 1944. Quoted in: Democracy Reborn (New York, 1944) p. 259.
- My first introduction to economics came by way of Professor B.H. Hibbard. I remember being asked in 1910, at the close of my college course, who had influenced me most, and I said Professor Hibbard. Later, of course, we came to disagree violently about the McNary-Haugen Bill and some other things; but I still think that Professor Hibbard is a very good teacher.

text: SMU Guildhall is the premier graduate video game education program in the United States. The program offers a master's degree in interactive technology and a graduate certification. The program has graduated over 600 students who have worked for more than 250 of the world's leading video game companies, giving Guildhall the largest number of alumni working the gaming industry of any graduate gaming program in the world. The purpose of the school is to prepare artists, level designers, programmers, and producers for the video game industry. Many of the school's advisers and founders are industry icons. In addition, industry veterans make up the faculty. At SMU Guildhall, the curriculum is focused around a team approach and interdisciplinary thought and action. The curriculum is set up so that four unique skill sets are working on all team game projects. One person alone cannot program, design, develop, and produce the content for a game, it takes a team-centric environment, and that is the stringent equation that SMU Guildhall adheres to. While working in teams, students have the opportunity to take on lead and supporting roles, and will learn traditionally as well as through self expression and exploration.

The team behind Microsoft's Channel 8/9/10 developer sites has released a new blog/CMS engine named Oxite to Codeplex. Oxite was originally developed for the company's MIX Online site and, as one might expect, it uses the typical Windows stack of ASP.NET, ASP.NET MVC, and SQL Server. Citing a lack of large-scale ASP.NET MVC samples, Redmond has published the core code under its OSI-approved, permissive open source license, Ms-PL, giving any developer the right to incorporate Oxite into their own blogging or CMS software.
The project is not currently aimed at endusers. Although Oxite offers all the features a blog needs to support—RSS feeds, gravatars, comment moderation, pingbacks, and so on—it lacks the kind of easy installation and configuration that enduser software requires, instead using Visual Studio Web Developer Express for such tasks. Rather, the company's aim is to have developers build on Oxite either to create custom blog or CMS applications, or to incorporate it into larger, more complete blog software. It is, however, a community project, so if the community turns it into a more consumer-oriented product, Microsoft will not stand in its way.
Oxite is not going to displace the likes of WordPress any time soon; the project is far too developer-focused (quite deliberately) to compete in that market, at least for the time being. It does, however, go beyond the usual sample code. It provides a useful package of complex functionality and should prove extremely valuable for anyone who needs to add CMS or blog-style features to an existing application.

Nothing says "celebration" like a festive cocktail, and nothing says "the opposite of celebration" like the miserable ritual known as the New Year's resolution. This year, make matter and antimatter collide by mixing some resolution-themed drinks that also happen to be profoundly bad ideas.
Resolution: Take better care of your teeth
The Crest Mint Julep
Nothing speaks of Southern hospitality like a classic Mint Julep. But get your cocktail to do double-duty (teeth cleaning plus pleasant inebriation) with mint-flavored toothpaste in lieu of herbal simple syrup. Refreshingly crisp, this is the only Kentucky Derby–appropriate beverage recommended by four out five alcoholic dentists.

I can honestly say that by the time the Rosetta Stone software was loaded on the computers, I was exhausted. I was also unsure of how the language-learning project would be received, and was anxious when it was finally time to teach the program.
One night after returning from a long day of construction, I returned to Tshulu Camp where I was staying and where the computers were. The first computer was up and running with the program and I was anxious for someone to try it. It turned out that many people were also anxious to use it. That night, as on most nights, I had dinner with Thompson Malala, a local man who is the maintenance manager and lives at the camp during the workweek. While we ate together, we discussed the Rosetta Stone software and he eagerly volunteered to try it out. The next day when he started using the program, I remembered why I had worked so hard for the previous two and a half months. It's hard to explain how fantastic it was to see Mr. Malala using the Rosetta Stone program. He had hardly used a computer before, but after a few moments of getting adjusted to the mouse and keyboard and setting himself up as a user, the rest was a joy. Once he started the first lesson, the program ran smoothly and was so self-explanatory that I didn't need to clarify anything to him. He was simply enjoying himself.
The next day, a dozen more people from HaMakuya had a chance to try out the program. I was happy to find Mr. Malala and his son Meshack working on it together, supporting each other throughout the lessons and even getting a little competitive over their final scores. I was more pleased to find that I didn't need to teach anyone anymore because Meshack Malala was teaching Sarah Matshayi Mmbengeni, and Nndwakhulu Mudzanani was teaching Mukondeleli Munyai. I believe this list will continue to grow.

DALLAS — After torching the Dallas Mavericks for 38 points, 12 rebounds and seven assists to get the Los Angeles Lakers a key win, Kobe Bryant shot back at the Mavs owner who days earlier suggested the Lakers should consider using their amnesty clause on their 17-year superstar.
Via Twitter, Kobe wrote:
Cuban, talking on a local sports talk radio show Friday, immediately followed his amnesty comment by saying he was speaking hypothetically and that the Lakers would never do such a thing. It didn't stop the Lakers organization from getting ruffled, calling Cuban's comments "inappropriate," in an official statement and suggesting it would not oppose the league stepping in with a fine.
That's not likely to happen.
Cuban, whose team fell to 25-30 and suffered another blow to its diminishing playoff chances, was amused enough by Bryant's Twitter response to tweet back:
On the radio show, Cuban was asked if he's surprised at the state of the Lakers. Early in the season, Cuban said he hoped the Lakers "suck." He said the Lakers' struggles have surprised even him, and then he steered the conversation back to the topic of the CBA.
"If you look at their payroll, even if Dwight [Howard] comes back, you've got to ask the question: Should they amnesty Kobe?" Cuban said on the show. "You just don't know, right? It's the same reason I wouldn't get rid of Dirk Nowitzki.
"I'll take a hit for a season rather than get rid of Dirk. That's just it. I've made that commitment to him over the years, and he's returned that commitment. Maybe that's selfish, but that's just the way it is. So I'm just saying that hypothetically. When I say, 'amnesty Kobe', I don't think they'd do it, but they've got some choices to make. Now, they're in a big market, but they're still limited. The Knicks, the same thing. Boston, same thing."
Prior to Sunday's game, Cuban reiterated that he was simply giving a hypothetical as an example to make a point.
"Any time you try to explain the CBA, it's hard to do without giving an example," Cuban said. "Whenever the commissioner or anybody talks about the CBA, they talk about Dallas and Tyson Chandler or Dallas and Dirk or whatever. You've got to use examples.
"I was clear saying it was hypothetical and I didn't expect it to be that way, but it was a good example because they have the highest payroll and the highest-paid player in the league. That's the end of the story."
At the end of Sunday's story, it was Kobe with the last laugh — or last tweet as it were.

January Spring Days in Long Beach, WA
January 20, 2015 by: Susan Goldsmith
The Long Beach Peninsula had a fine summer and winter is looking much the same. These images of "January Spring Days in Long Beach, WA" prove my point! This winter has hosted monsoon days interspersed with perfect blue skies, warm temps, flat surf, modified by some big gust days creating huge surf and more warm temperatures. Sure we had a little freeze a month or so ago… but really, I think I like the changes in our weather patterns.
These January Spring Days in Long Beach have raised my mood considerably and made life more bearable. Of course Vitamin D is still in my daily repertoire, a necessity for many reasons, but it is possible to get some safe sunshine on our bodies. The other day at Waikiki Beach, we could have sunbathed! Guests of ours have pictures over New Years of their young daughter in a tank top at Cape D State Park. Christina prefaced showing me the picture with "Don't think we are into child neglect but it was very warm at Waikiki Beach today!" These pics were taken by me playing tourist with Linda Hanlon, former peninsula resident now living in Seattle. We captured the beauty of January 13, 2015. Almost too warm for a jacket and offering perfect images of Cape Disappointment State Park in Ilwaco, WA. Come take photographs of our beautiful area, stay at Boreas Bed & Breakfast Inn in the lap of luxurious surroundings and fine breakfast dining! If you're looking for things to do, drive for 10 minutes and see Cape D for yourself!

Man Pleads Not Guilty in Cheyenne's Hitching Post Fire
CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) — A New Mexico man has pleaded not guilty to felony charges including arson and conspiracy in connection with the 2010 fire that heavily damaged a landmark hotel in Cheyenne.
U.S. District Judge Nancy Freudenthal on Friday set bond at $1 million cash for 51-year-old Ajay Jariwala, of Albuquerque.
A federal indictment charges Jariwala was an officer in the company that bought the Hitching Post Inn in Cheyenne for just over $1 million in 2010. The indictment says Jariwala took out a $13.6 million insurance policy on the hotel before the fire.
The indictment charges that Jariwala hired another New Mexico man to torch the building for insurance money. The insurance company has refused to pay on the policy, saying the fire was arson.
Freudenthal has set trial for April 15.

2012 was quite the year, and we owe all of it to our customers and community members like you. As we head into the holidays, we wanted to take a look back at all the great memories from this year. Here is our top 12 of 2012 moments as we countdown into the New Year.
From all of us here at Adobe, we wish you a very happy holiday.
No. 12 – Create Now Event
One of our most recent events, Create Now introduced a number of new features to the Creative Cloud. Jeff Veen sat down with our creative evangelists and customers to talk about new releases to Photoshop, including Smart Object support for Blur Gallery and Liquid Layout, the introduction of Creative Cloud training, Muse for mobile websites and more. The most pivotal memory for us during the event: Terry White's conversation with student filmmakers, who were awe inspiring.
No. 11 – We're 30 Years Young
This year marked a milestone anniversary for our company – we turned 30! Shantanu recently shared a few words in his 'Happy Anniversary, Adobe!' tribute. This closed out a weeklong celebration of the milestone with our 10,000 strong employee base. Catch a glimpse of our festivities in our Facebook album, Adobe Turns 30.

SantaAnita.com ARCADIA, Calif. (April 11, 2012) – Just about the closest thing
to a lock over Santa Anita's hillside turf course, seven-for-eleven Unzip Me has
a score to settle among six entrants in Saturday's 38th running of the Grade
III, $100,000 Las Cienegas Handicap for older fillies and mares.
The 6-year-old California-bred daughter of City Zip might seem headed in the direction of yet another triumph over the 6 ½-furlong layout she adores except for a single gray area: Mizdirection.
Owned by popular sports-talk radio and television personality Jim Rome's Jungle Racing and partners, Mizdirection upset Unzip Me in their only previous meeting, the Grade III Monrovia Stakes over the course on Jan. 2. And it was a convincing victory; the pair was separated by 1 ¾ lengths as Unzip Me dead-heated for third.
Marty Jones, who trains homebred Unzip Me for Harris Farms, Donald Valpredo, Per Antonsen and partners, offered little excuse for the 6-5 favorite. "She had a pretty good trip," Jones said. "They were flying. They really set it up for someone from behind."
With Garrett Gomez in the saddle at odds of 3-1, Mizdirection did come from well off the pace. The 4-year-old gray filly rallied from sixth to win going away. The outcome left Rome gushing after achieving his first graded stakes victory as a Thoroughbred owner.
"Garrett Gomez can host the show tomorrow," he exclaimed. "Garrett can do my TV show; it's Garrett's world, whatever he wants. Garrett Gomez is burning. I've had a lot of really good things happen to me in business and in life, but nothing has ever felt as good as that, in a professional sense. . .I don't know anything that's ever felt that good."
Rome, one must assume, would be hopeful that David Flores can handle his next TV show. With Gomez riding at Keeneland on Saturday, Flores has been named to ride Mizdirection, who drew post position No. 5. Unzip Me must start from the less desirable rail coming down the hill.
Under the handicap conditions of the Las Cienegas, Mizdirection and Unzip Me each will carry co-high weight of 122 pounds on Saturday. The latter carried a career high 127 one year ago when losing by a neck to Separate Forest in the Las Cienegas. She won the event under 118 pounds the previous year.
Joe Talamo, who has ridden Unzip Me to five victories, will take over for absent Rafael Bejarano as the chestnut mare attempts to become a millionaire. She has earned $959,228 from an overall record of 14-4-4 in 25 starts. The winner's share of the Las Cienegas is $60,000. Unzip Me has been so consistent that she has hit the board in 18 of her last 19 starts, and she missed victory by one length in the exception: a fourth-place finish behind Broken Dreams in the Senator Ken Maddy Stakes last September.
A daughter of Mizzen Mast trained by Mike Puype, Mizdirection seeks her fourth straight victory on Saturday. Her 2 ½-length win in the Clockers' Corner Handicap on Feb. 25 made Mizdirection two-for-two over Santa Anita's hillside turf course. The $50,000 auction purchase has earned $300,111 from a record of 5-3-1 in nine career starts.
Broken Dreams, a 5-1 shot when upsetting Unzip Me in the Maddy Stakes, will try to accomplish the same for a third time. Glen Hill Farms' 5-year-old mare also defeated Unzip Me in a six furlong allowance event on turf at Hollywood Park last July when scoring by 1 ¼ lengths.
Broken Dreams, however, has been beaten by Unzip Me on three occasions. The homebred daughter of Broken Vow has earned $257,833 from a 5-5-1 record in 17 lifetime starts. She was assigned 119 pounds for the La Cienegas. Alonso Quinonez will be aboard for trainer Tom Proctor.
The complete field for the Las Cienegas Handicap, with jockeys and weights in post position order: Unzip Me, Joseph Talamo, 122; Teroda, Martin Garcia, 116; Saanneen, Eswan Flores, 114; Broken Dreams, Alonso Quinonez, 119; Mizdirection, David Flores, 122, and La Nez, Martin Pedroza, 116.
The Las Cienegas will be contested as the eighth race on a nine-race program. First post is at 12:30 p.m.

LOS ANGELES -- Mark Lowe and the Los Angeles Dodgers have agreed to a minor league contract, giving the team another bullpen option in spring training.
The 29-year-old right-hander was 0-2 with a 3.43 ERA in 36 relief appearances for the Texas Rangers last year, when he didn't pitch in the major leagues from June 25 to Aug. 10 because of a strained muscle in his right side.
He will compete for a job in a crowded bullpen as the high-spending Dodgers try to make the playoffs for the first time since 2009.
His agreement was announced Friday.

She also told us that she's definitely a giver in the bedroom.

With the possible exception of the hunnish Dodge Viper, the C6 Corvette is unique among domestic vehicles in its ability to make just about any driver feel like a multiple ALMS champion. Amply girded with deep reservoirs of power, a denture-dislodging set of brakes, and a painstakingly refined suspension system-all operating under the benevolent aegis of a sophisticated computerized safety net-the latest iteration of Chevy's long-running sports car offers a peerless platform for pushing one's driving abilities to the limit with minimal risk to life, property, and reputation.
But for all its baked-in puissance in most operating environments, the C6-especially in base form-is not without room for improvement as a sometime track car. These inherent deficiencies came into sharp focus during one of our recent track sessions at Gainesville Raceway, when a colleague at another magazine decided to put his '05 Z51 coupe through its paces on the facility's 1.6-mile road course. Perhaps the most significant problem lay in the car's habit of spinning its inside wheel when accelerating out of turns, a tendency amplified by the aging all-season Michelins installed by the previous owner. And while the factory Z51 binders performed admirably up to a point, repeat lapping revealed a not-inconsiderable propensity for brake fade, resulting in a few hair-raising moments and at least one sod-scattering detour through the infield.
Much as we enjoyed witnessing some of these antics, professional responsibility ultimately prevailed, and we resolved to address the car's shortcomings with a few carefully selected aftermarket upgrades. We began by contacting OS Giken, a leading manufacturer of limited-slip differentials for foreign and domestic performance vehicles. Giken's Sean Fenstermacher recommended the company's OS Super Lock LSD unit, which is a direct replacement for the stock diff in C6, Z06, and ZR1 models. (The company also offers versions for the C4 and C5.)
According to Fenstermacher, the Super Lock's chief advantages lie in its unique construction. "The Super Lock is a clutch-type unit equipped with 28 steel clutch plates with very minimal preload. This provides a smooth lockup [all the way] to full lock. It also eliminates wheelspin, while maintaining smooth, almost open-diff-like corner entry. This results in faster exit speeds for our track and autocross customers."
Though not specifically designed for drag racing, the Super Lock is also said to pay dividends at the strip. "For drag customers, our diff provides a smooth and progressive lockup to both wheels equally, enabling increased stability during hard launches," says Fenstermacher.
Durability is also improved over stock, thanks to the inclusion of hardened stub axles, a forged case and pinion gears, and the use of heat-treated components throughout the unit. No break-in period is required, and fluid-change intervals are unchanged over the factory recommendations. (You'll need to use OS Giken's proprietary fluid, however.)
For serious racers, the Super Lock's preload, lock timing, and ramp angle are fully tunable, making it possible to tailor the unit's responses to best suit different suspension calibrations and track layouts. The configuration works so well, in fact, that track star Danny Popp is currently running a Super Lock diff in his NASA C6 race car.
A pro-quality differential demands a suitably stout housing, so we decided to yank the '05's famously frangible factory rear in favor of a heavier-duty piece from a C6 Z06. Fortunately, RPM Transmissions makes a conversion kit to facilitate this swap, complete with a media-blasted case, fresh seals, and micropolished gears in a choice of ratios. Although RPM typically loads these rears with factory Z06 internals, the company agreed to outfit ours with the OS Giken Super Lock hardware instead.
Next, to address the brake-fade issue, we pulled the 5-year-old factory pads and installed Hawk PC (Performance Ceramic) pads in their place. The PCs use one of Hawk's less aggressive compounds, making them suitable for street driving as well as occasional track use.
And finally, since all the braking and driveline upgrades in the world are meaningless without adequate rubber, we had a local tire shop strip off the car's old mud-and-snow Michelins and replace them with a stock-size set of Nitto's excellent Invo performance radials.
So, did our curative ministrations have the desired effect on the C6's track performance? We'll get to that soon enough, but first, let's take a closer look at the parts we used in the project and some of the work involved in installing them.

♥ Share your love in small ways ♥
Open our hearts & share our generosity.
♥ Share your love in small ways ♥
Open our hearts & share our generosity.
Kindness matters
Be kind, always! Happy Holidays (December 2018 Gift Giving, Sitio Alibang, Naugsol, Subic)
"A simple act of kindness creates an endless ripple"
6 tipsto living a life with purpose and meaning
There is a Chinese saying that goes: "If you want happiness for an hour, take a nap. If you want happiness for a day, go fishing. If you want happiness for a year, inherit a fortune. If you want happiness for a lifetime, help somebody." For centuries, the greatest thinkers have suggested the same thing: Happiness is found in helping others.
"For it is in giving that we receive — Saint Francis of Assisi
The sole meaning of life is to serve humanity — Leo Tolstoy
We make a living by what we get; we make a life by what we give — Winston Churchill
Making money is a happiness; making other people happy is a super happiness — Nobel Peace Prize recipient Muhammad Yunus
Giving back is as good for you as it is for those you are helping, because giving gives you purpose. When you have a purpose-driven life, you're a happier person — Goldie Hawn
And so we learn early: It is better to give than to receive. The venerable aphorism is drummed into our heads from our first slice of a shared birthday cake. But is there a deeper truth behind the truism?
The resounding answer is yes. Scientific research provides compelling data to support the anecdotal evidence that giving is a powerful pathway to personal growth and lasting happiness. Through fMRI technology, we now know that giving activates the same parts of the brain that are stimulated by food and sex. Experiments show evidence that altruism is hardwired in the brain—and it's pleasurable. Helping others may just be the secret to living a life that is not only happier but also healthier, wealthier, more productive, and meaningful.
But it's important to remember that giving doesn't always feel great. The opposite could very well be true: Giving can make us feel depleted and taken advantage of. Here are some tips to that will help you give not until it hurts, but until it feels great:
1. Find your passion
Our passion should be the foundation for our giving. It is not how much we give, but how much love we put into giving. It's only natural that we will care about this and not so much about that, and that's OK. It should not be simply a matter of choosing the right thing, but also a matter of choosing what is right for us.
2. Give your time
The gift of time is often more valuable to the receiver and more satisfying for the giver than the gift of money. We don't all have the same amount of money, but we all do have time on our hands, and can give some of this time to help others—whether that means we devote our lifetimes to service, or just give a few hours each day or a few days a year.
3. Give to organizations with transparent aims and results
According to Harvard scientist Michael Norton, "Giving to a cause that specifies what they're going to do with your money leads to more happiness than giving to an umbrella cause where you're not so sure where your money is going."
4. Find ways to integrate your interests and skills with the needs of others
"Selfless giving, in the absence of self-preservation instincts, easily becomes overwhelming," says Adam Grant, author of Give & Take. It is important to be "otherish," which he defines as being willing to give more than you receive, but still keeping your own interests in sight.
5. Be proactive, not reactive
We have all felt the dread that comes from being cajoled into giving, such as when friends ask us to donate to their fundraisers. In these cases, we are more likely to give to avoid humiliation rather than out of generosity and concern. This type of giving doesn't lead to a warm glow feeling; more likely it will lead to resentment. Instead we should set aside time, think about our options, and find the best charity for our values.
6. Don't be guilt-tripped into giving
I don't want to discourage people from giving to good causes just because that doesn't always cheer us up. If we gave only to get something back each time we gave, what a dreadful, opportunistic world this would be! Yet if we are feeling guilt-tripped into giving, chances are we will not be very committed over time to the cause.
The key is to find the approach that fits us. When we do, then the more we give, the more we stand to gain purpose, meaning and happiness—all of the things that we look for in life but are so hard to find.

Every kid deserves to have proper education and IROG is always there to support its hardworking scholars. For this school year 2018-2019, IROG scholars received Gift Certificates to buy school supplies.
Another year for them to acquire more knowledge and skills in order to be ready for what their future would bring.
When we say "Christmas Season", the first thing that you'll think about as a child or an adult aside that it is the birthday of Jesus are gifts, right? It is that time of the year when gifts are the symbol of people's love and care to other individuals around them. Here on the Philippines, it is the norm to see some children and adults doing caroling in front of different houses with the hope of getting a few gifts from the homeowners, but at IROG foundation, the group was doing the exact opposite because they do caroling not to get gifts, but to give gifts to different families especially for the people in need.
The IROG foundation along with different volunteers, employees, and other generous and compassionate individuals and groups have been doing this "Reverse Carolling" for many years now and each time they do it, it is certain that it will be a very memorable experience for each person involved. Their dedication can even travel extra miles just to deliver their gifts to people similar to what happened on December 19, 2017, but this time, something special happened because one of the famous news programs of GMA News TV, the "State of the Nation with Jessica Soho", took interest in the organization's compassionate activity and decided to cover their caroling story and share it to millions of Filipinos watching their newscast.
Even though the group heard the Christmas songs a lot of times they still decided to practice the songs to deliver them properly during the morning of December 19, then afternoon came, and the group was ready to go, carrying their gifts and their feelings of excitement and joy. They might not be composed of great singers, but they still sing the Christmas carols from the bottom of their hearts with full of smiles, and to their delight, the families truly appreciate them. And as each set of songs were finished, the group was truly excited each time they're about to give the gifts to different persons and families at Tibag, Zambales. This is also the group's way of telling them that whatever challenges life may bring, there are still people who are willing to provide a kind help and support.
This benevolent tradition started by the organization with the genuine objective of sharing love and care through gifts to different people and families will surely continue in the next Christmas seasons.
"Children are the world's most valuable resource and its best hope for the future." – John F. Kennedy
It's known to many that this quote inspired a lot of people and organizations around the world. It's like a message that highlights the great importance of children as they are the most precious treasures a community can have. They are the promise and guarantee of the future; so they should be taken care of all the time.
