Created attachment 527 [details] atisysteminfo-report.txt Description of problem: I had 2GB of RAM (DDR2, PC6400, 800MHz), I added another 2GB so now I have 4GB (2x2GB) and I'm not able to use fglrx drivers. After system reboot and Xserver startup, screen becomes violet or black and I'm not even able to switch to other virtual console with Ctrl+Alt+F1...F6. When I remove 2GB (only 2GB left) system starts normally and everything works fine. It's not RAM issue, because I've got Windows 7 installed as well and it works fine, 4GB of memory are visible in the system. Besides when I installed Backtrack 5 which is based on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, catalyst drivers were working correctly with 4GB RAM inserted. I borrowed 1GB of RAM and tested configuration with 3GB and it was working fine! Problem is present only when 4GB are inserted... Steps to reproduce: 1. Download and Install catalyst dirvers according to WIKI http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Precise_Installation_Guide#Installing_Catalyst_Manually_.28from_AMD.2FATI.27s_site.29 2. Reboot system DETAILED description and discussion: http://phoronix.com/forums/showthread.php?71848-Drivers-for-AMD-(ATI)-Radeon-HD-5670-in-Ubuntu-12-04-LTS-(Precise-Pangolin)&p=271419 Actual result: Violet or black screen Expected result: Normal Desktop
Can you check for a system BIOS update from your mobo vendor ? That frequently fixes 4GB problems.
Hello John, unfortunatelly I have the latest version of BIOS installed... Looking forward, Przemek.
There's not a lot that can be done... how about trying to boot after disabling the ubuntu splash screen? http://askubuntu.com/questions/129738/can-i-disable-the-ubuntu-splashscreen also, if you can boot into the pae kernel using using the console, run the commands dkms -m fglrx v8.980 -k 3.2.0-26-generic-pae remove dkms -m fglrx v8.980 -k 3.2.0-26-generic-pae build dkms -m fglrx v8.980 -k 3.2.0-26-generic-pae install also, even though you have not ran memtest yet, please give it a try. and as for the two sticks of ram, have you tried testing one set then the other? or vise versa? also, have you checked the memory timings and complete details between the two memory sticks. It's possible that windows works fine because it's only using one of the sticks of ram to boot.
Created attachment 529 [details] Information displayed when splash screen is not in use.
Created attachment 530 [details] Information displayed during installation.
Hello Ken, when I disabled splash screen, unfortunatelly system did not boot up, there were only some displays as in attachment no_sploash_screen.JPG Removeing, building and installing fglrx module also did not help... I had to modify a little bit provided commands to loook like this: dkms -m fglrx/8.980 -k 3.2.0-26-generic-pae remove Regarding the sticks, I've tested configuration when each single 2GB is insert and everything is working fine. Even when 3GB are inserted it is OK- the problem is only with 4GB of RAM. It is a new set of 2GB sticks which is working in Dual Channel- I removed old 2GB stick. In Windows 7, 4GB of RAM are visible in the system. I made today a fresh install to capture things that were displayed when I launched Live CD with Ubuntu (they also appear during system shutdown)- please see attachment fresh_install.JPG- maybe this will help to identify the root cause. Looking forward, Przemek.
> unfortunatelly I have the latest version of BIOS installed... According to your atisysteminfo-report.txt, motherboard model is GA-MA69G-S3H, and BIOS version is F4a. Latest BIOS for this motherboard is F8E: http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=2554&dl=1#bios May you please try update BIOS, as John Bridgman recommends?
Hello Everyone! Problem is SOLVED! As per your recommendation- BIOS upgrade on my motherboard (Gigabyte GA-MA69G-S3H) was the solution! I upgraded to the newest version which is F8E. I was able to install latest Catalyst 12.6 drivers succesfully. I had problems with upgradeing BIOS from Windows XP and Windows 7, but upgrade directly from BIOS with Q FLASH worked perfectly! To do it, just download BIOS from Gigabyte site, extract the archive, copy BIOS file to USB stick, plug USB stick into computer, reboot system, hit "End" button during startup and select BIOS upgrade from HDD- you can find lots of videos on YouTube about that. Many thanks for your help and support! Looking forward, Przemek.
Please don't forget to change bugreport status (which probably should be INVALID in this case, as this is not fglrx bug).
Hi, status changed to CLOSED INVALID. Looking forward, Przemek.
Glad to hear that it's working now.

Dodgers Drop Another Game to the Diamondbacks, 4-3 in Extra Innings
Posted By Simran Reyatt On Sep 1 2012 @ 2:31 am In Los Angeles Dodgers,MLB | No Comments
What has been unexplainable to unbelievable to unreal has turned into just plain pathetic. The Dodgers dropped yet another game in their quest to, either, win the division or earn a wild card berth. They are 4 1/2 games behind the San Francisco Giants and 1 1/2 games behind the St. Louis Cardinals for the second wild card spot. It is becoming more and more frustrating for the Dodgers who failed, yet again, to gain any ground on the teams ahead of them. All teams ahead of them, the Giants, the Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Pirates, lost. Yet the Dodgers, who boast quite possibly the most intimidating offensive lineup in all of baseball, floundered all night. Brad Bergesen (1-0) pitched two innings of scoreless relief to pick up the win. Matt Gurrier (0-2), fresh off the disabled list, served up a lead-off home run to Jason Kubel in the 11th inning and suffered the loss.
In what has become routine lately, the Dodgers fell behind early in the game, though not the fault of starting pitcher Aaron Harang. With two out in the second inning and Miguel Montero at first, Chris Johnson hit a routine fly ball to right fielder Andre Ethier, which should have ended the inning. However, Ethier lost the ball in the sun and was unable to make the catch, allowing Montero to score. Johnson was credited with a triple and the Dodgers were, once again, behind. They fell further behind in the fifth inning as pitcher Trevor Cahill, batting only.107, hit a 3-2 pitch up the middle for a base-hit, scoring Johnson from second. Aaron Hill then doubled to right-center giving the Diamondbacks a 3-0 lead.
The Dodgers got back into the game in their half of the fifth. With two outs, Luis Cruz singled to right. A.J. Ellis was then hit by a Cahill fastball putting runners on first and second. Pinch hitter Nick Punto hit a slow roller to shortstop that he barely beat out, loading the bases. Mark Ellis followed with a single to left field, scoring Cruz and Ellis, cutting the lead to 3-2. The Dodgers got even in the sixth as Ethier hit a bloop single to left field, scoring Matt Kemp from third base. Kemp got to third via a walk, stolen base, and a sacrifice fly.
Then the Dodger bats went quiet, as they have the past week, sans Wednesday's game against the Rockies, where they scored 10 runs. It is quite unexplainable what is going on with this team. The Dodgers held a closed-door meeting after their 2-0 loss Thursday night. With September call-ups around the corner, perhaps the benchings of a few players (Ethier, Kemp, Ramirez) is in order for a game or two. Perhaps, that would light a fire under them that could spark the team as they head into the final month of the season. Because as it stands right now, things are looking mighty bleak for the Dodgers.

London, England born 1933
1975 Description: brooch with support
Place made:
Sydney, New South Wales, Australia
Materials & Technique:
costume and dress, body ornaments
textiles, silk, coloured cotton threads
Primary Insc: Stitched on reverse, gold cotton: "H Dorrough 1975"
The grouping of birds on a wall was a popular decorative item in many Australian homes in the 1950s. The birds, which were usually ducks, were ceramic or plaster and were displayed in a set of three flying up a wall.
Heather Dorrough's brooches are displayed in a similar way in Silently Stirring and depict a variety of birds in the natural world. The textures of a range of fabrics, such as silk, satin and velvet highlight the bird's spectacular plumage.
Activity: Using old pieces of fabric and coloured thread make your own beautiful bird wall feature or brooch. You could use sparkly paint to help decorate your bird.

Lazard Freres Ups Jones New York Rating
Analyst Todd Slater believes estimates next year could prove conservative
Jones Apparel (JNY ) posted $0.85 3Q EPS (pro forma). Lazard Freres upgraded the shares to buy from hold.
Analyst Todd Slater says while he does not see any major improvement in the retail environment, the company's sales were 7% above expectations, with some categories outperforming in a tough environment. He notes the balance sheet is improving; a charge taken to lower inventory levels reduces forward risk in an uncertain environment. He says bookings were in line with guidance. Slater believes estimates next year could prove conservative if consumer spending improves in the second half of 2002. He raised his $2.22 2001 EPS estimate to $2.30 and his $2.55 2002 forecast to $2.60. He also hiked his target to $32.50.

Community Says 'No' to Newark Walmart
When word leaked out late last year that Walmart was eyeing a piece of the prime Springfield Avenue Marketplace project in Newark, N.J., more than 50 local community, faith, labor and other groups said the last thing Newark needed was a Walmart that kills local small businesses, replaces those jobs with low-paid part-time work and lowers community standards.
The Walmart-Free Newark campaign mobilized local residents, business and lawmakers. That community action—organized by Working Families United for New Jersey—paid off with the recent announcement that regional and working family-friendly ShopRite—not Walmart—will take that prime Marketplace space. The group's chair, Charles Hall Jr., says:
The determination of the Newark community was critical to defeating Walmart's plans to build a store in their city and demonstrates the extraordinary strength of community solidarity. Not only were 50 local community groups able to overcome the world's largest retailer, but, because of their efforts, Newark can now look forward to welcoming a family-friendly ShopRite to the community.
ShopRite, says Hall, will be "built, staffed and operated union and uplift the community by creating family-sustaining middle-class jobs for local residents."
The coalition, including the New Jersey State AFL-CIO, testified before the Newark Planning Board and Newark City Council and held several demonstrations and rallies to oppose what Hall says is "Walmart's plans to strong-arm its way into Newark."
Through a combination of grassroots activism and lawsuits citing Walmart for an inadequate environmental impact study, working families were successful in keeping Walmart out of Newark.

Thank you ;)
the darkness is one of my favorite things to explore…
I'm guilty, what can I say?
I wouldn't have thought that darkness was your thing Jessica, I mean your avatar is sweetness and light, well… compared to mine anyway!
ha ha, my daughter would love this. She reads all the vampire books
Why are vampires such droolers – you'd think with all that immortality they'd have had time to figure out how to suck blood without making such a mess! Mind you, when the mess is as alluringly seductive as you've made it with this pose and cropping, well you just gotta be sanguine about it I guess. Beautiful – that ring is the perfect counterpoint.

If you find any aspect of lacrosse in a place you didn't expect it, we would love to hear from you. Take a quick photo or video and email it to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Earlier this month reader Carlos Cruz-Perez hit up the tipline with this spotting from Nickelodeon TV show Sam & Cat. Unfortunately the YouTube video he sent us was taken down, but I was able to grab a screenshot before that happened. Behind the two girls (who are presumably Sam and Cat) is a girls lacrosse stick with a yellow head hanging upside down.
Check out all our past spottings here!

Controls and Operation
Here's a closer look at the T's twin top-plate dials, which are used to control the main exposure settings. The right side dial changes the 'primary' exposure parameter in each mode; in M mode it changes shutter speed. The left dial changes aperture in M mode, but in all other modes it's customizable from a choice of six functions (listed below). Cleverly the selection screen is easily accessible at all times, rather than being buried in the menu, which means it's easy to switch the dial temporarily to a different function if you want.
Mode |
Left dial |
Right dial |
P | Custom* | Program shift |
A | Custom* | Aperture |
S | Custom* | Shutter speed |
M | Aperture | Shutter speed |
Scene | No function | No function |
*Choose from ISO (default), Exposure Compensation, White Balance, Focus Mode, Self Timer, or Focus mode. Selected function applies in all exposure modes. |
One nice touch is that when you have the M-mount adapter attached (and therefore most likely a lens with a physical aperture ring), the camera switches the function of the left dial to magnifying the image, to check focus. It's good that Leica has made this easy, as there's no other manual focus aid on offer. The T doesn't have a focus peaking display, for example, unlike almost any other mirrorless model currently on the market.
Live View Displays and Touchscreen Controls
The Leica T has four screens available while shooting, which can be cycled through by tapping the on-screen 'INFO' button. There's a full-screen view with no information overlay, which allows you to concentrate on your composition. Next is a view which overlays key exposure information on gray strips along the top and bottom of the screen - this does however make it difficult to see those edges of your composition (although it works nicely as a 16:9 preview for movies). In addition, you can choose to view a rule-of-thirds grid or a live histogram, but not both at the same time.
The T will lighten or darken the live view display to preview any exposure compensation you have set. In manual exposure mode it keeps the main display at a standard brightness for ease of composition, but previews your exposure when you half-press the shutter button. The camera will also stop down the aperture on half-pressing the shutter to give depth of field preview; however it still tries to keep refresh rates high in low light, which can result in a visibly noisy preview image.
Most camera control operations, aside from setting the exposure, rely on the touchscreen. Crucially, all of the on-screen buttons are large and well-separated, and the touchscreen is generally pretty responsive. This means that using the T feels very similar to a smartphone. The most important touchscreen controls are detailed below.
When you spin one of the dials, little gray boxes appear at the top right of the display showing their current functions. Tap the left one and this screen appears, allowing you to quickly reassign the left dial's function. | |
Tap the exposure mode icon top right, and you enter the mode selection screen. The T offers the usual set of PASM modes, plus a number of scene modes too. | |
Tapping the camera icon below it opens a user-customizable short menu for your most frequently used settings. To add a setting, simply tap the '+' button and select one from the main menu. To remove one, press down on it, then it drag to the right of the screen when a 'trash' icon appears. |
Focus area selection
One operational aspect where the Leica T falls seriously short its competitors is in the selection of an off-center focus point. On most cameras you can simply tap the touchscreen where you want to focus, and continue to use that point as long as you like, reconfirming focus between shots with the shutter button. This didn't quite happen on the Leica T we tried out, which to be fair was a pre-production unit running non-final firmware. Hopefully Leica can improve this with a firmware change.
To move the focus point, tap the Auto Focus Mode setting in the menu. | |
This gives a set of focus mode options. 'Spot' and '1Point' offer user-positionable AF areas that can be placed almost anywhere across the scene, differing only in size. To actually move the AF point, though, you have to tap the 'Right Arrow' beside the main menu item. |
This screen then appears; you can position the AF area simply by tapping the screen, or (less conveniently) by spinning the dials. Infuriatingly, you then have to tap the 'SET' button to confirm - forget this and you need to repeat the whole process. |
The process for repositioning the AF point in 'Spot' or '1Point' mode is excessively long-winded, and most annoyingly requires a press of the on-screen 'SET' button every time. You'd think this would be overcome by using 'Touch AF', and to a degree this is true - here you simply tap the screen where you want it to focus. In this mode, though, the camera won't refocus between shots using the shutter button (unlike every other touchscreen model on the planet), so you have to touch to focus every single shot, which is equally annoying.
Auto ISO
One feature that we do think is well-implemented on the Leica T is Auto ISO. You can select the maximum ISO you're happy to use, up to the camera's maximum of ISO 12500 in whole-stop increments. You can also specify a minimum shutter speed, from 1/4000 sec to 1 sec in whole-stop increments. This gives plenty of flexibility for either freezing a moving subject, or avoiding camera shake with a prime.
However, if you're shooting with a zoom or frequently changing lenses, and want your minimum shutter speed to adapt to the focal length in use, the Leica T also offers an 'Auto' setting. This is no big deal in itself; what's important is the rule that it follows. Leica is one of the few manufacturers to appreciate that the old 1/focal length rule of thumb may have been fine for film, but doesn't really work any more with high resolution sensors. So the T sets the shutter speed unusually high, to 1/(2x effective focal length), meaning it won't drop below about 1/180th second at the long end of the 18-56mm zoom (for example). This helps minimize the risk of getting images that are blurred due to camera shake.
Like most cameras, though, the T fails when you try to use Auto ISO in manual exposure mode. You can't apply exposure compensation, so have no control over the image brightness. Instead you just have to accept the camera's metering, whether you like it or not.
Playback screens
The T has no physical play button, so playback mode is accessed by swiping up or down on the live view display, which is easy enough once you know how. Once there, image browsing is just like a smartphone; swipe left or right to browse though images, pinch to zoom in or out.
The Leica T offers a pretty conventional set of playback screens, which again are cycled through by tapping the 'INFO' button. There are four screens; image only, exposure information, histogram (luminance or RGB), and an exposure clipping warning. The camera's playback menu offers pretty standard options - you can play slideshows, protect images from deletion or mark them as favorites, and delete them either individually, or by selecting a group. You can also transfer files between the camera's internal memory and the SD card.
Movie mode
The Leica T has a movie mode, but rather like with Fujifilm cameras, it feels somewhat as though it's been bolted-on mainly because it has to be on the marketing spec sheet. So while you can start movie recording at any time simply by pressing the red button on the top plate, you don't get a lot of manual control at all. You have no control over Frame rates or bitrate either - the only choice is between 720p or 1080p resolution (both at 30fps).
You can set exposure compensation at the start of recording, but the camera simply ignores any aperture or shutter speed setting you may have made. If AF is enabled, the camera will set itself to multi-area continuous focus mode, and perform a visually-distracting AF cycle at the start of every recording. Worse still, it will then continually try to readjust focus on whatever it decides should be the subject. You can't use focus lock before the start of recording, because the T simply doesn't have that function, so the best option is to switch to manual focus.
Sound recording is via tiny stereo microphones placed on the top plate, with no option to plug in an external microphone. The camera offers no control over sound recording volume, but it does at least have a selectable wind-cut filter.
By Andy Westlake
Assessing a camera like the Leica T comes with its own set of problems. The first is suspension of disbelief at the pricing - Leica has become a premium, essentially 'designer' brand, but even so the idea of spending £2700 for a mirrorless camera with no built-in EVF and a slow zoom lens is difficult to accept rationally. But exclusivity has become part of Leica's continued existence, and manufacturing this kind of product in Germany (complete with 45 minutes of hand-finishing each body shell) both contributes to, and helps justify, the high price. The design is - quite deliberately - all about desire over reason.
And the T is, without doubt, a desirable object. That solid aluminum shell gives it a unique feel and heft. The smooth metal finish isn't remotely the most practical, but it does give the camera a wonderful feel in your hand. It's terribly easy to be seduced by the purity and single-mindedness of the T's minimalist, and ever-so-modern design.
This leads onto the next problem, that of deconvoluting the style from the substance. The T is a lovely object to hold, and I really enjoyed my time with it, including taking it out for a couple of sessions shooting. But I have to acknowledge that at least part of that enjoyment came from precisely those attributes that will make it prohibitively expensive to normal photographers.
However, I think there's some real substance too. The combination of twin control dials for setting exposure, alongside a clear and simple touch interface for everything else, shows other manufacturers that it can indeed be done. We've seen touch interfaces that genuinely work well (such as Canon's), along with others that are rather less successful, but the T strikes me as perhaps the most successful attempt yet to marry modern smartphone design with physical camera controls. Not everyone wants that in a camera, of course, but some will find it compelling.
The T also turns out to be a genuinely nice camera to use. Focusing, at least with the 18-56mm lens, is fast enough to make it competitive with modern mirrorless cameras, albeit not quite as fast as the very best of them. It's also almost completely silent. The twin dials let me tweak aperture and exposure compensation easily with my thumb, with the camera providing reasonably accurate on-screen feedback of how the image would turn out. My main gripe is that the process for moving the focus point is convoluted and frustrating, so I resorted to using center-point focus and recompose instead. This works OK with a slow zoom, but I can't help but feel a touchscreen-equipped mirrorless model should behave better.
We don't generally talk much about image quality from a pre-production camera or lens, but it already seems clear to me that the 18-56mm is an impressive performer for such a small lens. It looks to be impressively sharp corner-to-corner wide open at all focal lengths, with relatively low chromatic aberration too. Leica has adopted the thoroughly modern design practice of automatically correcting distortion in software, so you won't see any in your images unless you go out of your way to find it using a non-mainstream Raw converter. The overall result is that it delivers consistently good-looking images.
Similar praise can't, sadly, be heaped on the camera's JPEG output. At it's best, the camera can give pleasing results with bright, punchy colors. But the auto white balance can be overly-enthusiastic about neutralizing real color, and the metering has a slight tendency towards overly-bright exposures. These things can be fixed if you keep an eye out when you're shooting, though, and even more so if you shoot in Raw. Indeed the camera records easily-opened DNG files and comes with a copy of Adobe Lightroom; but we wonder how many buyers who are attracted to the T over, say, the Fujifilm X system will actually work like this.
Overall, then, the Leica T is a lovely camera to hold and use, with a touchscreen interface that will feel instantly familiar to smartphone users. Both lenses are sure to be superb, too. Of course rationally, the pricing looks absurd, but even so the Leica red dot is sure to have an irresistible draw for some.

Since deadly bombings, more calls for 'suspicious packages'
FULLERTON – Evacuations and bomb squad calls have been more common this week after two deadly explosions in Boston left nerves shaken across the country.
In Orange County, school campuses have been put on alert and train stations and neighborhoods have been evacuated while authorities received an increased number of "suspicious packages" calls.
"It's typical after something like this happened," said Jim Amormino, spokesman for the Orange County Sheriff's Department, referring bombings at the Boston Marathon.
Friday morning, Fullerton Police evacuated homes and businesses from the 2400 to the 2600 block of East Clarke Avenue after getting a report of "suspicious devices" near a Del Taco. The items were found to be harmless, Sgt. Jeff Stuart said.
However, authorities were looking for the person responsible for placing the packages in the area because one contained wires, giving it a suspicious appearance.
"We don't know what the person's intentions were, but the fact that they designed it with wires suggests they wanted whoever found it to believe it was an explosive device," Stuart said. "Obviously, whoever set it up did not have any intentions to blow it up because there was nothing to make it explode."
Three people were killed and more than 170 were injured by bombs that were put near the finish line of the Boston Marathon.
Since Tuesday, deputies in the Sheriff's Department bomb squad unit have been called to six similar calls, looking through abandoned packages that have been reported to police. That's a significant number of calls for a period of four days, Amormino said.
None of the calls have turned up dangerous objects, he said, but law enforcement officials are also exercising extra precaution because of the Monday bombings, and the ongoing search of two suspects in Boston.
On Wednesday, Cal State Los Angeles was also evacuated and classes were canceled after police received a call of a bomb threat on the campus that turned out to be a hoax.
In Orange County, the first call of a suspicious package this week came Tuesday in Dana Point, Amormino said.
The next day, units were called to Orange. None of the objects were deemed dangerous.
Deputies in the bomb squad unit responded to three calls Thursday, including an abandoned backpack that was found at a train station in Anaheim. Calls were also received in Huntington Beach and Yorba Linda, where the objects were deemed safe.
In the meantime, news coverage of the bombings and the resulting manhunt for two Chechen brothers have dominated websites, newspapers and 24-hour news network this week.
Large cities across the country also reported increasing security and patrols.
As federal officials sought the two suspects, authorities have urged the public for information on the suspects and the bombings, as well as to report suspicious activity.
Officials also reminded people of Homeland Security's campaign of "If you see something, say something," encouraging folks to be alert and cautious.
"Usually after something like this, people become more aware," Amormino said.
When the packages were reported in Fullerton Friday by the Del Taco employee, officials with the bomb squad, FBI, Fullerton fire and police, and Anaheim hazardous-materials team were called.
Inside one of the bags, officers found Muscle Milk, a protein-enhancement formula.

Former Saint Catharine College students who had paid fees, security deposits or other money, which were being held by the college, may be getting those returned to them soon. The court-appointed Receiver, LS Associates, LLC, has asked the Federal Court to establish a student refund account to facilitate the return of approximately $180,000 in student fees and claims ranging from $50 to $6,792 each.
Filming of the movie "Tragedy Girls" in Springfield will be completed this week, ending the month-long production of a Hollywood film in Springfield and Marion County.
Washington County resident Aleeyah Salazar was one of many locals to participate in the film's production.
The final part of funding for an upgrade to Springfield's sewer plant was approved last week by the Springfield City Council.
In February, the Springfield Water and Sewer Commission received confirmation that they were approved for a total of $1.92 million from rural development, with $1,347,000 coming from a loan and $573,495 coming in the form of a grant for a headworks sewer project upgrade.
... And cut!
Hollywood will begin to scale down its presence in the small towns of Springfield and Lebanon as it wraps up production of the movie "Tragedy Girls," a horror-comedy film portraying an adventure of two teenaged girls, later this week.
According to Edward Mokhtarian and Armen Aghaeian, producers of the movie, the production of the film has gone extremely well.
A former Springfield police officer, along with another man, have been indicted on assault charges.
The Washington County Grand Jury indicted Michael A. Cotton, 59, of Bardstown, and Kevin R. Bewley, 28, of Willisburg, on one count of assault in the second degree, a class C felony.
The Washington County Commander golf team was in action last week, traveling to Taylor County to face off against the Campbellsville Eagles this past Thursday.
The Commanders were unable to extend their two-match winning streak, though, falling to the Eagles by 21 strokes, with WC scoring 190 compared to Campbellsville's 169.
The Washington County Commanderettes lost their first three games of the season last week, but they did so while playing three of the top teams in the 5th Region.
And that was by design, according to head coach John Rogers.
"We wanted to load that schedule up, and with the way the girls are fighting, they understand what the game plan is," he said. "0-3 has no negative effect on us whatsoever as far as the district tournament and the region tournament go, unless we let it."
The Washington County Commanders found themselves in a shootout last Friday night, but they were unable to come out with a win, falling short 54-40 against the high-powered offense of the Western Hills Wolverines during the season opener.
Despite a two-possession deficit on the board at the end of the game, it looked as if Western Hills would run away in a blowout early on.
Shawn Malloy, along with his wife, Lori, has been working with natural fibers for more than a decade. Now, after opening two successful fiber companies, they've opened up a third – U.S. Natural Fibers, a processing plant in Springfield.
"What U.S. Natural Fibers is all about is, we're buying and selling fiber from small farms across the county," Malloy said.
Multiple city council and school board seats are up for grabs this year, and voters will go to the polls to decide who will fill them on Nov. 8.
Tuesday, Aug. 9, was the last day for candidates to file for election.
According to Washington County Clerk Glenn Black, three school board seats are up for the taking, as well as all six spots on the Springfield City Council.

No ability
La Junta's Damage points are increased by 2 points. (Remember: Damage points are inflicted on your opponent if you win the round)
What people don't get about No Nam or Kolos or Kinjo or any other 1HKO potential cards is not that they can kill in one hit, but rather that your opponent knows that they can kill in one hit. They make your opponent play carefully to avoid being wiped off the face of the game in one move, throwing huge amounts of pills into fights that they can only barely win. These cards are not terribly good if all you do is fury and stack nine pills on top of them - but if you leave them sitting there, glowering at your opponent, you can slip in low-pill cards while your opponent is too scared to play for fear of leaving themselves open to 12 damage worth of retribution. Also, if they're not playing smart, then totally hit them with an all-pill fury because they should damn well know better.
status in full lvl: a 7/7card with his bonus 7/9 w/ a capable of doing 11 damage(with fury) ability:none A one hit K.O.er when you have Timber Rate green please so noobs can know!

It is a tribute to Colonel Kurtz (Marlon Brando) in Apocalypse Now. At level 3 is when was young, after vaccinate the children of a village sees the natives cut the arms where they punctured. At level 4 is Lietutenant Colonel Bill Kilgore (Robert Duvall) in the famous scene in which he says "Charlie don't surf!". At level 5 is Kurtz at the end of the film become a genocidal deity.
I did this with Ed 12 but rate up to pay your respects for No Nam and Ed 12 after the release of Dugan
his skin color changed... weird
Why buy No Nam for 1700 when you can get Dugan for 1000. I mean come on who would you rather have a 7,7 no ability for more or a 7,7 -5 opp damage min. 4 Its not hard people
No Nam is the nam Killing is the gam
Completely replaced by Dugan...

Je moet hem en duganhebben. Met Timber en fury erbij maak je ze in 1 klap KO. Allebei zijn te goedkoop . Hij is echt te goed. Als je wilt dat hij zakt, koop hem Dan niet. Als niemand hem koopt wordt hij goedkoper en Dan hoef je minder te verspillen aan een perfecte KO kaart. Hij slaat ze KO en heeft ook nog eens 7 macht
Then Dugan came...
This card can bluff. What a cool addition to 1 hit K.O.ers , wish they could add more of this bluffers and 1 hitters. No Nam !
Is anyone else confused with the fact that his price went UP when Dugan came out?

Advertisement William Francis and Julio Sarmiento took to the streets of Rockefeller Center Friday night to wait nearly 50 hours for a video game.They knew there was a good chance that if they showed up Sunday morning they'd still likely form the front of a line for people waiting to buy Super Mario Galaxy 2 from the Nintendo World Store when it opened at 11 a.m. But instead the two planned to hang out for the weekend in front of the Manhattan retailer. Advertisement "I wait in lines because it shows dedication to the company," Francis told me Saturday afternoon. "I don't stay in lines for Xbox 360 games."Video game launches have long elicited lines. It is, among the most fanatical of video game fans, a badge of honor to wait for hours, for days, for games and the systems that play them. Advertisement Sponsored While Super Mario Galaxy 2 isn't the sort of game that is being kicked off with giant parties in Times Square or celebrity events in Los Angeles, its launch highlights the power Nintendo still has over its fans.Sarmiento is such a fan of the company that he was going to form the line in front of the Nintendo World Store Friday morning, he told me. "I was extremely excited," he said. "I came to the store Friday morning and I told everyone there I was first to be in line and they were like 'Go to work and come back later. No one is going to be waiting until Saturday night.'"So he went off to work and when he returned at 4 p.m. that evening he discovered that he was now the second person in line for a game not due out for days.Sarmiento didn't know Francis when he got in line behind him Friday night, but he was happy to have someone to share the line with. Advertisement "I have someone to talk to and someone to watch over my stuff," he said.When Francis showed up to the store Friday night he came wearing a t-shirt, shorts and carrying a DS. Sarmiento brought a DS, folding chair, blankets, change of clothing, even a spare hat. The guys spend most of their time waiting in their line of two, but when someone has to use the bathroom, get something to eat, or charge a Nintendo DS, the other held his place. Advertisement And getting to a launch so very early does have its benefits. On Friday Charles Martinet, the man who voices Mario in many of Nintendo's games, noticed the two hanging out in front of the store and came out to chat.Touched by their dedication to the franchise, Martinet handed out some Nintendo freebies to the two and signed lithographs Advertisement "Standing in line," Francis said, "is like getting the collector's edition of the game."Well Played is a weekly news and opinion column about the big stories of the week in the gaming industry and its bigger impact on things to come.

Custom Frameless Glass Shower Enclosures and Sliding Shower Doors
Your glass shower door or enclosure configuration and shape, it's framing – or lack of framing – describes the type of shower enclosure or door it is. An overview of common shower enclosures and doors are listed below. Illustrations of shower door configurations can be found here.
Frameless Shower Enclosures, Custom Sliding Shower Doors, Hydroslides, Euro Slides, Serenity® and Steam Showers
Frameless shower enclosures and frameless shower doors may also be called trackless, seamless, hydroslide, euro slide or steam showers. These terms often refer to an "unframed" shower unit. A custom frameless glass shower enclosure or door has no framing on the glass corner angles or doors. Stability, safety and other factors dictate whether or not minimal or no framing or "header" is needed along the top of a frameless unit. Instead of framing or tracking, hardware clips and hinges or suspended hydroslide, euroslide or Serenity® hardware are used to mount the stationary panels and doors. Frameless shower enclosure and door glass is usually 3/8″ thick.
Semi Frameless Shower Enclosures and Sliding Shower Doors
Semi-frameless shower enclosures and shower doors have framed tops and sidewalls, but often the doors, and glass corner angles are not framed. Semi-frameless showers are not as "transparent" as frameless shower, but they do have less plated moldings than a framed shower, and quite often the door will have no side framing. Semi-frameless doors are a popular choice with by-pass tub and shower configurations using 1/4″ or 3/8″ glass.
Framed Shower Enclosures and Sliding Shower and Tub Doors
Framed shower doors and tub sliders are supported on all sides, utilizing framing on the glass top, bottom and sides as well as the shower or tub sidewalls.
Shower & Tub Enclosures, Doors and Sliders Terminology and Styles
Bath screen: glass screen or splash that runs along two-thirds of the tub
By-pass doors: doors that slide pass each other, usually on some type of framing or track, also called sliding doors
Euro slide: frameless sliding door suspended from by rollers from the top, also called hydroslide, or Serenity®
Hydroslide: frameless sliding door suspended from by rollers from the top, also called euro slide or Serenity®
Knee wall: a partial wall or buttress (also called sidewall)
Neo angle: three-sided shower with a door that is at a 45 degree angle to the two side panels
Panel and door: panel attached to sidewall and door, door can be hinged to sidewall or panel
Panel, door, panel: panel attached to a door, door attached to another panel; door can be hinged to either panel
Panel and door, full return: shower door is usually attached to a sidewall with a full return panel on a 90º angle (the return is the corner piece that is "returning" to the wall)
Panel and door, inline return: shower door is usually attached to a sidewall and a notched panel
Panel and door, knee wall return: shower door is usually attached to a sidewall, and a panel, panel is notched (like an inline) and attached to a return (the return is the corner piece that is "returning" to the wall)
Pivot door: door that swings out, using pivot hinges top and bottom
Serenity®: frameless sliding door suspended from by rollers from the top, also called hydroslide, or euro slide
Shower door slider: same configuration as a tub slider, with the doors reaching the floor
Single door: one door attached to a sidewall
Sliding doors: doors that slide pass each other, usually on some type of framing or track, also called by-pass
Steam shower: the shower ceiling is usually tiled and the shower glass touches the ceiling trapping the steam inside the shower

3rd Party Remote Call Monitoring Featured Article
Enghouse Interactive Launches Software with 3rd Party Remote Call Monitoring Functionality
3rd party remote call monitoring is needed to ensure that call center agents are providing the best overall customer experience. Keeping in line with this idea, Enghouse (News - Alert) Interactive, the company that powers the CallRex suite of IP call recording and call center solutions has just released version 4.2 of its software. With this new release, companies that are leveraging Microsoft (News - Alert) Lync can gain access to multiple management solutions.
"Microsoft is pleased that Enghouse Interactive is continuing to enhance their CallRex Call Recording offer for Lync customers," BJ Haberkorn, Lync group product manager at Microsoft said in a release. "With the addition of RT Audio support, CallRex can now extend its flexible and affordable quality management solution to cover employees working outside the corporate network without the call issues associated with the use of traditional telephony codecs."
Some of the new capabilities included in version 4.2 include: conference-based active call recording which helps to promote the use of 3rd party remote call monitoring and does not require any additional software to work correctly, increased support for the RT Audio code and a much quicker and easier installation process.
"The CallRex suite of quality management solutions has had great success thanks to the efforts of our global partners and resellers. This release and the additions that we have made in our Microsoft Lync integration will open up opportunities in additional markets and give customers a quality installation experience and ROI," Bruce Sherman, product manager for Enghouse Interactive added. "We received substantial feedback from our partner community that encouraged our decision to license the Microsoft RT Audio codec and add it to our list of standard codec support. We are excited about the 4.2 release, and we're proud to provide CallRex software as a cost-effective and feature rich solution."
Beginning this month, users can begin to get familiar with this solution that already have an active Telrex (News - Alert) Platinum Support Plan.
BPA, a leading provider of 3rd party remote call monitoring recently stated that in 2012, 3rd party remote call monitoring will be advancing through reporting and the seamless integration of all aspects of call center reporting aspects including social media, call monitoring, CSAT, and more.

Science in New York Takes Center Stage as the Siemens Westinghouse Competition Moves to New York City
Sep 19, 2005, 01:00 ET from The Siemens Foundation
NEW YORK, Sept. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- The 2005-06 Siemens Westinghouse Competition in Math, Science & Technology, America's premier science research competition for high school students, will hold its national finals this year in New York City, the Siemens Foundation announced today. Formerly held in Washington DC, the national finals will take place at New York University, the weekend of December 2-5, 2005. They are the culmination of a series of six regional events hosted by partner universities around the country and administered by The College Board. The deadline for students to enter the 2005-06 Siemens Westinghouse Competition is Monday, October 3. New York City School's Chancellor Joel I. Klein highlights the role of the competition in driving student achievement. "This is an opportunity for our students and young people across the country to collaborate with some of our country's top researchers and begin to take their place as leaders in the next generation of science leaders," said Chancellor Klein. "We're excited about the Siemens Westinghouse Competition being at New York University this year," said Thomas N. McCausland, chairman of the Siemens Foundation. "As the academic home of many of our nation's leading science researchers it makes sense for NYU to host the nation's leading high school science research competition." "NYU is honored to host the Siemens Westinghouse Competition," said NYU president John Sexton. "The quality of the scholarship and the passion for inquiry displayed by the finalists are an excellent fit for NYU's own intellectual and creative drive, and we welcome them to our campus." Although not always recognized as such, New York is a major center of science research in the U.S., particularly in the area of biomedical research. Among the internationally recognized science research institutions in New York are Brookhaven National Lab, Cold Spring Harbor, Columbia University, New York University, Albert Einstein College of Medicine and Rockefeller University. New York also leads the nation in the number of high school students who participate in science competitions, including the Siemens Westinghouse Competition. More than 60 percent of the entries received for the competition come from the New York metropolitan area and New York State is the only state to have produced three top prize ($100,000) scholarship winners (1999, 2001 and 2003). The Siemens Westinghouse Competition The Siemens Westinghouse Competition awards college scholarships ranging from $1,000 to $100,000 in both individual and team categories. A signature program of the Siemens Foundation, the annual competition is administered by the College Board. Entries are judged at the regional level over three consecutive weekends in November at six leading research universities: Carnegie Mellon University; University of Notre Dame; University of California, Berkeley; Massachusetts Institute of Technology; Georgia Institute of Technology; and The University of Texas at Austin. Winners of the regional competitions are invited to compete at the national level. The 2005-06 Siemens Westinghouse Competition National Finals will take place December 1-5, 2005, at New York University's new state-of-the-art Helen & Martin Kimmel Center for University Life. The annual National Recognition Dinner will take place at the New York Hall of Science on Sunday, December 4. The 2005-06 national winners will be announced at a press conference at the Kimmel Center on Monday morning, December 5. The Siemens Foundation The Siemens Foundation, based in Iselin, New Jersey, is dedicated to providing scholarships and increasing access to higher education for gifted students in science, mathematics and technology-related disciplines through such programs as the Siemens Awards for Advanced Placement and the Siemens Westinghouse Competition in Math, Science and Technology. Established in 1998, the Siemens Foundation distributes more than $1 million in scholarships, awards and grants annually. The Foundation's mission is based on the culture of innovation, research and educational support that is the hallmark of Siemens' U.S. operating companies and its parent company, Siemens AG. Siemens is committed to academic excellence and to encouraging new generations to pursue science, mathematics and technology-related disciplines. With its U.S. corporate headquarters in New York City, Siemens in the USA has sales of $16.6 billion and employs 70,000 people throughout all 50 states and Puerto Rico.

Brands-and-Jingles specialises in jingling domain names, those online brands easy to remember that are at the same time valid web addresses too. We believe having a trendy, easy to remember URL makes a big difference. It leads to higher recall rates, quality traffic, intense word-of-mouth promotion - all resulting in lower advertisement budgets allowing to achieve more for less.
"Our speciality: short and jingling domain names, easy to remember, impossible to forget."
Dot-com domains still dominate the virtual commercial world and we try to deploy them fully. On the other hand, as they get more pricey and scarce, and as many of our customers want to shift away from boring dot-com endings, we have enhanced our portfolio with more melodic tunes. Try to forget these jingling brands: free4.me, hotels4.me, jobs4.me, mobiles4.me, phones4.me, pizza4.me, radio4.me, tickets4.me or tv4.me and there is 99.9% that you will not. Tell your friends about balance.me, fancy.me, remortgage.me, replay.me or unlock.me and they will remember them for ages. Jingling .me names are very suitable for a separate marketing campaign, a teaser tv ad or even a company name. Simple, yet powerful statements, like Modern.Me, Natural.Me, German.Me, Indian.Me, Irish.Me, Israeli.Me, etc, appeal well to the Internet visitors and allow marketeers to target the right audience with the right words. At Brands-and-Jingles we go far beyond domain names. Our professional staff also works to create welcoming atmospheres and exciting experiences - things the end user would like to be associated with.

Delays on Stonehouse through Aug. 17
The county Department of Transportation warns us to expect long delays on Stonehouse Road through Aug. 17 between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. The reason for the lane closures is pavement maintenance and paving work. Flaggers will be used to control traffic during the work. The suggested alternative route is Latrobe Road to Scott Road. The work was discussed at a community meeting last month.

Worldwide pop star Kylie Minogue called the police over a person issuing threats directed at her over Twitter, she tweeted Feb. 7. Minogue writes, "I love 1,033,861 of you LOVERS,
but 1 is not a lover, just a deluded weirdo making threat
#andthatdoesnotmakeyouspecial So..police alerted."
This is not Minogue's first brush with a crazy fan since she burst onto the music scene in the late 1980s. In 2003, she reportedly received threatening letters at her home and office in London.
Minogue completed her "Aphrodite World Tour" in 2011 and is currently working on a new compilation album that will feature reworkings of her most famous hits. The album will coincide with the 25th anniversary of her first hit, "Locomotion," in 1987.

Robin Thicke is getting a lot of criticism over his single "Blurred Lines." The song's video was banned from YouTube due to nudity, with some critics even alleging the lyrics are "rapey."
His newest video is likely to cause a lot less controversy. During an appearance on BBC 1 Radio on July 9, Thicke sat down at a piano for a very toned-down performance of Icona Pop's hit song "I Love It."
Listening to his cover, it's hard to believe the original song is a fast-paced synthpop dance track. Maybe Thicke should look into covering more songs in this stripped-down style. Then his music wouldn't be on Sesame Street anymore, though.
Sit back, kick your shoes off and give a listen to Thicke's version of the song below:
