Dan The X-Ray Man necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 114 diseños de 24 diseñadores freelance.
Create a unique modern futuristic logo that has a professional look that stands out & catches your eye. An artistic logo you can read clearly and would be remembered or recognized.
Discount X-Ray
Discount X-Ray is a new company. We specialize in the service and repair of processing machines that develop x-rays. We sell parts and chemicals for the units. Need a logo for all applications for business.
- I would like the letters D & X to stand out or to be used in or as an icon or symbol for the logo. You can combine the letters D X with a radiation or nuclear symbol if it is altered to look futuristic, distorted or artistic or combine either with the Discount X-Ray name. I like the 3D logo look. I want a modern futuristic font that can be read clearly. Detail or color graduations can be used. I am open to color but am fond to strong colors. I like reds, blues with silver or chrome. It would be nice if the logo looked good on a black or white background.
- I dont want something too plain, simple or looks cartoonish. I'm not looking for a standard font with a typical generic icon on the top or on the side of generic text. I don't want a typical x-ray symbol. Try not to make the logo look too much like a hazardous waste or toxic company.

Weber® Gas BBQ
With a 10-year limited warranty, the iconic Weber® Spirit®, Genesis® and Summit® gas barbecues are regarded as among the best in the world due to their design and functionality as well as having a reputation for being built with the highest quality parts.
Easy to ignite, easy to control and just as importantly, easy to clean a Weber® gas barbecue ensures the temperature remains stable throughout the duration of the cook.
A flick of a switch is all it takes to ignite, and within minutes the cooking grates are hot enough to cook on. No messing around with firelighters and starter fluid with a Weber®.
All Weber® gas barbecues come with Flavorizer® Bars so you still get the rich flavours that you would with associate with charcoal, contrary to popular belief. Three or more burners give the cook the convenience of direct or indirect cooking (see below) allowing for a variety of cooking techniques to be used for different types of dishes.
Despite having the collection trimmed for 2017 the Weber® Spirit® Classic and Weber® Spirit® Original are a good way to start gas barbecuing. Whether you're using a 2-burner Weber® Spirit® Classic E-210, Black or a 3-burner Weber® Spirit® Original E-320 GBS®, Black with side burner all Weber® Spirit® BBQs come with a good reputation.
Combining 30 years of experience with the latest gas technology the Weber® Genesis® II and Weber® Genesis® II LX ranges are the new kids on the block for 2017.
With the introduction of a new fail-safe electronic ignition, high performance burners, a new grease management system and some design updates the Weber® Genesis® II and Weber® Genesis® II LX state-of-the-art barbecues are simply game changers.
With 13 new models across the Genesis® range choosing which one is right for you may seem a bit daunting. Whether you're led by the maximum cm² cooking area, budget or the choice between simply having a cupboard underneath or not, there is a Weber® Genesis® II for every gas cooking enthusiast.
Both the Weber® Genesis® II and Weber® Genesis® II LX offer 2, 3, 4 and 6 burner options and all come with a GS4 High Performance Grilling System, Electronic Ignition System and High Performance Burners.
The main differences between the Weber® Genesis® II and the Weber® Genesis® II LX is that all of the LX barbecues come with High+ sear burners on top of each burner to provide an extra blast of heat to help seal your meat and a closed cart below the cook box.
Be it the smaller Weber® Genesis® II E-210 GBS® Black or the larger Weber® Genesis® II LX S-640 GBS® SS, all Weber® Genesis® II and Genesis® II LX barbecues come with a Weber® porcelain-enamelled cast iron Gourmet BBQ System® cooking grate to give you that extra cooking versatility.
Although previously available nationwide, the top-of-the-range Weber® Summit® E-670 GBS® Black and Weber® Summit® S-670 GBS® SS are now exclusive to Weber® World Stores so if you want to see what beautiful multi-functional barbecues they are be sure to visit our showroom.
Where possible and depending on the time your order is placed, we ship our Weber® gas barbecues the very next working day to get you up and grilling as soon as possible! However, due to the size and weight of these BBQs they get delivered on a pallet and will need to be signed for. Please make sure someone is at home to take receipt of it and have the means to dispose of the pallet.
What are Flavorizer® Bars?
Found on all Weber® Gas BBQs, the patented Flavorizer® Bars are angular slats of stainless steel or porcelain coated steel that sit over the burner pipes protecting them from dripping fats and juices, whilst incinerating them for the most part on contact to recycle the lost flavours and moisture. They also act to better dissipate heats so hotspots do not occur just above the burners making consistent cooking easier.
Because of the intense heat changes and abuse from repeated and regular cleaning, the Flavorizer® Bars are the element you are most likely to replace during the life of your barbecue. We stock replacement Flavorizer® Bars in both stainless steel and durable porcelain-enamel for Genesis® and Spirit® Weber® barbecues in our Flavorizer Bars Category.
Direct and Indirect cooking on you Weber® Gas BBQ
Key to the success of your barbecued food is Weber's legacy to promote barbecueing with the lid on, helping to reduce heat and moisture loss that can lead to uneven cooking and below-par results. Thanks to the internal design and exterior lid-mounted thermometers on all Weber® gas barbecues, Weber® owners up and down the country wax lyrical about their latest bbq results.
Weber® Gas Barbecue - Direct Cooking
Grilling with a direct heat source is the most common technique among the experienced and inexperienced alike because of its speed and effectiveness for cooking the bulk of barbecue dishes. Ideal for meats and veg with a relatively short cooking time such as burgers, sausages and chicken pieces, an intense heat is applied from below which sears the meat on one side which can then be flipped over to cook the other leaving no rawness in the middle. Ensure you fully preheat your barbecue and food is placed directly above the burners on full power. Try only lifting the lid to flip the meat and check for doneness at the end of the suggested cooking period.
Weber® Gas Barbecues - Indirect Cooking
Indirect grilling (also known as roasting) works similar to your kitchen oven allowing you to thoroughly cook large joints of meat and full poultry because it is the air convecting around the meat that heats up rather than the meat directly. Heat has time to penetrate right through the meat rather than singeing the outer layer. Simply turn off half the burners (or the burners directly below the food) once the bbq has preheated and rest the meat in a Weber® Rib / Roast Holder if available so that air can fully circulate the elevated food.
By placing a Weber® Large Drip Tray below, the juices collect and can be reused in sauces and also save on clean up time! (psst, add water to the drip tray to regulate temperature during longer cooking periods which will help keep the meat moist and prevent the juices burning). Try only lifting the lid to baste the meat and check for doneness at the end of the suggested cooking period.

Big Blue Moose
Big Blue Moose is a new type of marketing strategy consulting company.
Like many consulting firms, we specialize in helping individuals and companies succeed in launching, marketing and optimizing their businesses. But, unlike other consulting companies, the power of Big Blue Moose is the network. Using strategic relationships, the power of an online network - and the leverage of Internet technology, the Big Blue Moose can bring the power of the largest agency, the biggest technology firm, or the insight from the smartest research firm without the complexity, cost and overhead of those organizations. the Big Blue Moose brings the right solutions to bear only when and where you need it.
In go lofty goals, crazy ideas and weird requirements - and out come simple, easy-to-understand and executable business and marketing strategies.
In short, clients trust the Big Blue Moose to make the solution to business challenges easy, understandable - and most of all achievable.
Businesses and Individuals looking to launch, manage and optimize their marketing strategy. Our clients are looking for out-of-the-box thinking and want to bring their right-brain to the table. They are entrepreneurs, marketing executives for existing businesses, or owners of small and medium sized organizations looking to break out of the ordinary.
With an "out of the box" name, comes an out-of-the box mark... But, hopefully the mark will instill a level of "trust" in its creative and focus on new ways to apply business strategy.
What we're not: This NOT about computer technology, or digital or anything like that.
And we are definitely NOT looking for the obvious "on the nose" tie-in to any animal with large antlers that may or may not resemble the name of the company.
Rather, think of The Big Blue Moose as a large Rube Goldberg device, a magic instrument or large apparatus - where on one end ideas and crazy requirements are fed in and on the other end out come simple, beautiful and easy to execute strategies for success....
We love geometric shapes - especially those that have symbology or meaning.. For example, look at the platonic solids - especially the octahedron...... We'd love to be able to weave in stories about the logo.. For there to be hidden meaning...
We're toying with the idea of multiple tag lines that would rotate under the logo... But for the treatment, and only if it inspires you - go with "It's All Possible". We'd also love something that, in the future, can extend into other areas - such as merchandising etc...
In short, let your creativity run wild and surprise us with what is unique to you.

A's righty Griffin will have season-ending elbow surgery
Oakland Athletics right-hander A.J. Griffin is scheduled to have elbow surgery Wednesday, and will miss the entire season with fellow third-year starter Jarrod Parker.
"We were hoping that wasn't going to be the case," Oakland manager Bob Melvin said before Tuesday's game in Texas.
"Losing two guys like that for the entire season is a difficult blow. One's a blow, two is tough. You move on, but you certainly have a lot of sympathy for the two guys that are having to go through that, because they've meant so much to this team over the last couple of years."
Parker, who had been expected to be Oakland's Opening Day starter, had Tommy John surgery on his right elbow during spring training.
Griffin will have the surgery after getting a second opinion Tuesday from Dr. Thomas Mehlhoff in Houston.
Melvin said he didn't know the specifics of the surgery Griffin will have or how extensive it would be. He had spoken only briefly to Griffin.
"He's always pretty happy-go-lucky, in good spirits," Melvin said. "I think the fact that he's having it done this early gives him a light at the end of the tunnel to pitch next season. The longer that goes on, the more difficult it is to come back and get semi-close to a full season. He's looking at it very positively."
Parker and Griffin combined for 26 victories last season.
Griffin was 14-10 with a 3.83 ERA last season after making his major league debut in 2012 going 7-1 with a 3.06 ERA in 15 starts for the A's. Parker went 13-8 in 2012 and was 12-8 last season.

Free Quiz Questions
Gavin Rymill is a Director of Zarbi Ltd,
a Wirral
Web Design, hosting and graphic design company based
on the Wirral peninsula.
The company has a substantial national and international
customer base and provides websites, creative digital
artwork and search engine optimisation for both local
businesses and a number of high profile UK clients.
Gavin Rymill's freelance artwork has appeared
on a number of high-profile products, including DVD
covers for BBC TV shows, posters for recent films and
album artwork for well-known bands.
His main work is in 3D Renders and computer generated imagery.
His other projects include a 'census
help' website for genealogy researchers, as well
as a Rymill History site to publicise his family own
tree, plus a selection of websites dedicated to subjects
which are respected in their various fields.
Other recent projects have included a website dedicated
to the Wars of the Roses and SEO work for local company
Key Residential.
The website gavinrymill.com began in 2000 as a personal
collection of pages about friends and hobbies. The site
branched specifically into dinosaurs and football (
the latter was spun off into its own site) until it
became used for quiz questions.
The result is that gavinrymill.com contains a mixture
of very old pages about different topics, plus new pages
with fresh research (mainly historical) along with the
free quiz questions
and questions for sale.
The main function of certain sections remains to act
as an advert to those Googling related topics, namely
that for the Rymill
Family tree.
The site is currently undergoing a major overhaul and
will be revamped with the new design in stages as time
"I ran a pub quiz at my local
pub for about six years and I have decided to put lots
of questions online available to other quizmasters to
reuse. They are broken down into categories for your
ease of use, and should provide enough quiz question
to keep you going for a while.
Outside of the pub quiz circuit, I also see a lot of interest in the casino / gambling sector. The connection between my local pub quiz, and the dazzling lights of the casino was something which attracted me to this area of work. Throughout the six years of running the pub quiz, the most popular games were provided by spin palace. These games also seemed to be fairly popular with the pub locals too. Click here to visit spin palace casino, and play on some of their latest games. Their casino games are increasing significantly, and they now feature updated Tomb Raider and Hitman online games.
There are two sections to the site
- the free questions which can be copied and pasted,
and for a small payment, you can buy a quiz pack at
the excellent website at freequizzes.co.uk where there
are loads of pre-prepared packs and categories to make
life easier for you. They have free posters you can
download to advertise in your night, and they have all
sorts of themed quizzes, picture rounds and connections.
Everything you could possibly want to make your quiz
go smoothly."
"The free quiz questions have been collated from
various sources. It makes life a lot easier to throw
a good quiz night together if you have big lists of
questions available so that's simply what I present
on this site. I used to sell them for a few quid a throw
but there was a lot of hassle involved in managing the
questions, keeping them fresh, ditributing them after
a sale had been made, and worrying about refunds, electronic
deliveries, returns, etc. As I only sold a very small
numer of packs, people would frequently complain that
they had had the same ones before, so in the end I removed
those sales and put the whole system through the affiliate,
so you buyers get the best service for the least hassle."
"In quiz writing it's always hard to get the balance
right. If your quiz questions are too hard then the
contestants won't feel any satisfaction from taking
part. Even teams that win a hard quiz will not come
away feeling happy because they won't have expected
to do well based on the number of questions they got
right and felt confident about answering. They will
come away feeling lucky, not intelligent. Unfortunately
it is also true that if you make and easy quiz then
teams will not feel challenged. If answers come to them
straight away then the teams will write it down quickly
and confidently and move on to talking about something
else. Not always a bad thing as you probably want your
quiz night to be a social event as well as test of the

|Keep It Simple, Stupid
Re^3: Improving Your Ability to Estimateby etcshadow (Priest)
|on Feb 14, 2005 at 06:29 UTC ( #430704=note: print w/replies, xml )
|Need Help??
This is all valid and good advise, but there's another option, too, which should not be overlooked. That is to cut scope creep off at the pass. Hit it as early as possible, before expectations are set and estimates are made. The way to do that is to deeply understand your client (internal or external, whatever) and your client's goals. Don't let someone hand you a spec or a list of feature requirements without understanding what is behind them. This is an incredibly important and worthwhile investment of time.
If you understand what your client is ultimately wanting to achieving, you will see (much of) the scope creep before they do. Also, and perhaps more importantly, if you cannot understand what they ultimately want (not what software or features they want, but what results they want), then there are several potential problems awaiting you. Not the least of which is potential miscommunication and the need for late course correction (which often programmers incorrectly call "scope creep", but is frankly their own misunderstandings coming out late). But perhaps the greatest danger of failing to understand the ultimate needs of your clients is this: If you do not really understand what they ultimately want out of the project, then you don't know whether they really understand what they want. And a client who doesn't really understand why (s)he wants something is one of the surest ways to an unsuccessful project and tons of scope creep.
But definitely not a contradiction to your points, just an addition for the record.

The Interagency Pain Research Coordinating Committee members include leading federal officials, including an individual from the Rehabilitation Research and Development Service at the Department of Veterans Affairs, Office of Research and Development; 6 nonfederal scientists; physicians; other health professionals; and 6 members of the general public who are representatives of leading research, advocacy, and service organizations. Appointees include organizations that advocate for people with fibromyalgia, chronic vulvar pain and related pain disorders, and peripheral neuropathies. Created through the Affordable Care Act, the committee also will explore public-private partnerships to broaden collaborative, cross-cutting research, and consider best practices in disseminating information about pain to public and professional audiences.

INDIO>> Leave it to Arcade Fire to spark controversy during the band's last performance to close out the final weekend of the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival.
Arcade Fire brough out a fake Daft Punk, Beck as the "real pope" and discussed the band's support for gay marriage on Sunday, even performing a cover of Prince's "Controversy" for a memorable performance.
Front man Win Butler started off the night by announcing a surprise guest only to reveal two men in white suits who appeared to be Daft Punk standing behind a DJ booth playing an off beat version of "Get Lucky." Although fans seemed initially confused by the pairing, it was quickly evident it was a fake Daft Punk and they were being duped.
After what sounded like Butler introducing the duo as "Phat Punk," he quickly asked them to leave, a move that perhaps mocked the fact that the electronic duo has long been rumored to play at the festival.
As the band lead off with "Normal Person," it was reported that some people at nearby sets took to the main stage believing Daft Punk had finally made it to the fest.
Sunday's closing set comes as Butler last week stirred some emotions by criticizing the VIP areas, defying curfew and praising bands that use instruments.
Arcade Fire seemed to play with more intensity during itsnearly two hour-long long set, which included "Here Comes the Night Time" and "No Cars Go."
Most of the song selection resembled what the band had performed the previous week, with some minor exceptions.
On the number, "We exist," Butler expressed his stance on gay marriage, saying he felt everyone should have the right to marry who they want.
As the band was wrapping up its set, Butler also announced they had a special Easter surprise: "the real pope," which turned out to be Beck donning the Pope Francis bobble head.
With the help of Beck, the band then went on to cover Prince's "Controversy," as one of the band members wore the Pope Francis bobble head.
For its closing number, "Wake up," Butler asked those in attendance, "let's sing it at the top of our lungs."
Finishing shortly after midnight the band then ventured into the crowd, much like last week, outside of the barricades. Using a bullhorn they continued the chorus for "Wake Up," with the assistance of fans.

GET READY TO PINCH YOURSELF, BECAUSE Partial Derivatives REALLY CAN BE THIS EASY.
I've helped students who would inevitably fail squeeze by with a grade 10% higher than the one they needed to pass. And people who failed high school math get accepted at prestigious universities for degrees in mathematics.
I don't say stuff like that to brag, just to be totally honest
about the fact that Partial Derivatives are possible to figure out, and even if you feel like you're cursed in that area, there is still hope for you.
Even if you're not a math whiz, Partial Derivatives can still be easy for you.
THE Partial Derivatives COURSE
Most people don't take this class just for the fun of it (or maybe you're the exception!). You probably need it because you want to be some sort of mathematician, scientist, or engineer. The good news is the difficulty of multiple integrals does not have to stop you from achieving your dreams. Learn more

"New Girl's" Max Greenfield, Angela Kinsey of "The Office" And TV Land's Own Kirstie Alley Among Guest Stars For New Season
Jennifer Love Hewitt, Craig Ferguson And More Set To Return
New York, NY - September 16, 2013 - "Hot in Cleveland" has begun production today on its fifth season, which will premiere in spring 2014, it was announced by Larry W. Jones, President, TV Land. With amazing guest stars including Emmy(R)-nominated Max Greenfield, "The Office's" Angela Kinsey, Kirstie Alley from TV Land's new original sitcom "Kirstie," and returning guest stars Jennifer Love Hewitt, Craig Ferguson and more, "Hot in Cleveland" is getting even hotter as it nears 100 episodes.
"100 episodes is a huge accomplishment for any TV show," said Jones. "We're so proud of the cast and crew, and we're looking forward to another fantastic season with new twists and turns in every episode."
Guest star Max Greenfield, well-known as the hilariously obnoxious Schmidt on "New Girl," will play a charming con man who poses as a pet adoption consultant, while Angela Kinsey will portray an Admissions Counselor for a pre-school that Joy (Jane Leeves) wants her grandson Wilbur to attend. "Hot in Cleveland" is also welcoming back some favorites from past seasons, including Jennifer Love Hewitt ("The Client List"); Craig Ferguson ("The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson"); John Mahoney ("Frasier"); Michael McMillian ("True Blood"); Jay Harrington ("Better Off Ted"); Dave Foley ("The Kids in the Hall"); and Georgia Engel ("The Mary Tyler Moore Show") as Elka's (Betty White) BFF, Mamie Sue.
When the fifth season begins, Melanie (Valerie Bertinelli) will deal with the aftermath of the shocking news she received in the season four finale: she's pregnant. The season will have some more surprises in store for Melanie as she starts to date one of her favorite singers. However, when the relationship goes south and he catches her in a lie, she gets "Taylor Swift-ed" and becomes the target of his latest hit song. This season will also include a crossover between "Hot in Cleveland" and "Kirstie," TV Land's newest original sitcom! The ladies travel to New York City, and in order to improve her "Oscar karma," Victoria (Wendie Malick) confesses an old betrayal to her ex-roommate, Broadway star Maddie Banks (Kirstie Alley).
Most recently, "Hot in Cleveland" made headline news when the female cast of "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" reunited in an episode that aired September 4th. The reunion aired back to back with the sitcom's cliffhanger finale and each episode drew in over 2.5 million total viewers, with the "Mary Tyler Moore" episode scoring the most total viewers for the sitcom since March 2012 (Source: Nielsen, 9/4/13, L+3).
"Hot in Cleveland" is executive produced by Emmy(R) Award-winner Sean Hayes ("Will And Grace") and Todd Milliner of Hazy Mills Productions and is helmed by Emmy(R) Award-winning Suzanne Martin ("Frasier," "Ellen") serving as executive producer, show runner and writer. Lynda Obst also serves as executive producer, and Larry W. Jones and Keith Cox are executive producers for TV Land. "Hot in Cleveland" is currently seen around the world in 211 countries.

Growth Modeling of Longitudinal Data
Tom Hildebrandt
posted on Monday, October 17, 2011 - 8:53 am
I have a complex data questions and am wondering if mPlus can handle the modeling.
I have 3 days worth of behavioral data collected where individuals recorded their mood at the moment of a specific behavior. The complexity of modeling happens because the number of recorded events differs per individual, so I can't seem to find a way to model slope without having to assume a large amount of missing data for individuals who didn't engage in the behavior frequently.
Any suggestions on how to handle this?
Bengt O. Muthen
posted on Monday, October 17, 2011 - 9:50 pm
Can a two-level version of growth modeling handle this? That is, is the time dimension of growth relevant for studying change? You would then take care of individually-varying times of observation. See UG ex9.16. This also has the advantage over the usual wide, single-level approach of handling many time points.
Tom Hildebrandt
posted on Tuesday, October 18, 2011 - 10:12 am
Thanks for the quick response. Time does matter as the second part of the complexity is that there is a nonlinear relationship between time and mood characterized by oscillations of different frequency and amplitude. Frequency is equivalent to the number of observations per individual and oscillations reflected in alternating sign of the DV (mood), from negative to positive or vice versa.
So in the example ex9.16, I would model the within-subject change using the nonlinear constraints and have the ID be a cluster variable to account for different number of assessments?
Thanks for your help.

I too have a complex data question, but not sure where on the forums it belongs.
I've been happily running LCGA models in MPlus for a while now, but I am trying to operationalise ZIP LCGA with exposure adjustment in the WIDETOLONG format because I now have missing data on both the response and the covariates (in this case the exposure). I was hoping not to lose the cases with missing data on the exposure, which led me to the use of WIDETOLONG in ex9.16.
Anyway, I'm a bit lost now on how to specify the model and I keep getting an error which i'm sure is my fault. I wondered whether you had any other examples similar to ex9.16 but where the time function is quadratic for the classes within the LCGA? I've been also running the models in Stata's TRAJ module which can handle missingness on the exposure, but i am keen to use Mplus if possible.
I believe i have set up the WIDETOLONG part of the code correctly - at least im not getting any errors here. I am however at a loss about how to specify the WITHIN and BETWEEN components.
Its a pretty simple two class model but I know i've completely misspecified it which is why an example would be very helpful. I also have no idea how to constrain the within class variances to zero consistent with the LCGA.

As an aside, I also used the description on this thread to guide me:
However, when in my case I specify:
i s q | conv on t;
ii si qi | conv on t;
i s q | conv on t;
ii si qi | conv on t;
I get the following error:
*** ERROR in MODEL command
Only one cross-sectional random effect can be defined at a time.
Definition for the following: I S Q
Any help you can provide would be much appreciated!

Paul Twohig's food industry career started at age 15 at a Burger King in Brockton. He now works as president of Dunkin' Donuts U.S. & Canada.
Paul Twohig walked into Burger King on Belmont Street as a 15-year-old for his first job in 1968.
Several years later, Twohig said he dropped out of Stonehill College in Easton, where he was studying to become a teacher, to join Burger King's management program – a move that launched him into a food industry career that has taken him across the world.
"At the time, it was a rather short-sighted decision, but when it was all said and done, it seemed to work out," Twohig, 59, recalled recently of his decision to leave college to work.
The Brockton native has worked in management for Burger King, Starbucks, Panera Bread and most recently, Dunkin' Donuts.
As president of Dunkin' Donuts U.S. & Canada, Twohig now oversees more than 7,300 coffee-and-donut chains nationwide. In 2012, Dunkin' Donuts reported $6.9 billion in franchise sales globally. Its parent company, Canton-based Dunkin' Brands Inc., has more than 1,100 employees.
From the company's conference room in Canton recently, Twohig said his business training began in Brockton, where he once worked as a caddy at Thorny Lea Golf Club on Torrey Street.
"I learned the importance of being on time, the importance of being reliable," Twohig said. "If you said you were going to do something, people could rely on you doing it."
Twohig – who has lived in New York, London, Pittsburgh, Atlanta, Miami, West Palm Beach, British Colombia and Seattle – said each career step helped shape the businessman he is today.
"I know from the other things I've done in my life, I embrace what we do," he said.
Twohig attended the Huntington School and South Middle School. He graduated from Cardinal Spellman High School in 1971.
After joining the management program at Burger King, he worked himself up to regional manager. He said his biggest lesson came after he purchased and operated four Burger King franchises in Florida.
"You're responsible for making sure people get paid," he said. "When I work with our franchisees here, having been a franchisee, all the joys and pain of that, I relate to that well."
In 1991, at age 38, Twohig sold his Burger King franchises and moved his family from Florida to Bridgewater. He said he then owned a few small businesses in the area.
In 1993, Starbucks hired Twohig as New England's director to open up its coffee franchises in the northeast.
The company sent him around the world, he said. He and his family moved to Atlanta and for 18 months, Twohig commuted from Atlanta to London. He'd spend two weeks overseas, and one week stateside, then repeat the cycle.
"It's where I learned how to sleep on airplanes," he said.
Twohig said the company is working to expand Dunkin' Donuts stores to the West Coast. The first Dunkin' Donuts location opened in Salt Lake City last week.
"That's really going to be our focus over the next few years," he said of the brand's expansion to the West.
A Dedham resident, Twohig is married with two children. His wife, Mary, is a 1974 graduate of Brockton High School.
He said he returns to Brockton, where he bought his first home in 1979, when he can to visit the Cape Cod Cafe. He said the city "was just a great place to grow up as a kid."
"There was always something to do," Twohig said. "Brockton still is a very special place."

Neil Young turned up in Los Angeles on Wednesday night at a hilltop mansion in Silver Lake that hosted the annual benefit concert for the Silverlake Conservatory music school, the event spearheaded by Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea, singer Anthony Kiedis and which also featured a performance by the Chili Peppers.
An audience of about 600 paid a minimum of $2,000 apiece to be in on the intimate performance and take part in a silent auction of donated works of art by luminaries who included Ed Ruscha, John Baldessari, Shepard Fairey, Raymond Pettibon, filmmaker Gus Van Sant, musician-actor John Lurie and several others.
Young included a couple of lesser-known songs in a 35-minute solo acoustic set and praised the Chili Peppers for their participation over the years in his annual Bridge School benefit shows in Northern California.
PHOTOS: Unexpected musical collaborations
He tipped his dark fedora to several fellow singer-songwriters and their works, including Bob Dylan ("Blowin' in the Wind"), Phil Ochs ("Changes") and fellow Canadian Gordon Lightfoot ("Early Morning Rain"), as well as performing a few of his own staples: "Comes a Time," "Harvest Moon" and "Heart of Gold."
Reaching beyond the cornerstone tunes, he hunched over his battered upright piano to open with "Someday" from 1989's "Freedom" album and inserted an unreleased number, "Singer Without a Song," that he's been doing recently in concert about a woman struggling for her music to be heard.
The Chili Peppers warmed up the crowd, seated at tables spread across an expanse of temporary floor set up across the lawn of the historic Paramour Mansion, owned since 1998 by philanthropist Dana Hollister. Kiedis ricocheted around the stage as he and his mates zipped through a quick 30-minute set that included "The Adventure of Raindance Maggie," "Can't Stop," "Around the World" and an homage to the night's headliner with their version of Young's "Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere."
Kiedis also asked the crowd to join him in "a moment of noise," rather than the conventional moment of silence, to recognize the recent death of Lou Reed.
Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti toasted the conservatory for its program of music instruction to the children of Los Angeles regardless of their financial situation and said he and his wife have been supporting it privately for several years and that some of their foster children have studied there.
Michael "Flea" Balzary offered a toast to "thank everyone for helping to bring music education to the children of Los Angeles." He unconsciously let fly an F-bomb, then apologized: "Forgive my language -- this is a children's school. But," he added quickly with a devilish smile, "they're not here tonight."
He told The Times earlier in the evening that the conservatory, for which he and Kiedis are board members, is looking to buy a permanent facility rather than continuing to pay $1 million a year to operate the facility it is using now at Sunset and Sanborn streets near Sunset Junction.
That, he said, would require a piggy bank of some $5 million to $6 million to buy one of a couple of pieces of property in the vicinity that school officials are considering. He also said they're hoping to expand the school's scholarship program, which assists families in need with reduced cost or free instruments and lessons.
Among the celebrity guests: actor Val Kilmer, actor and would-be rock god Jack Black and his musician wife, Tanya Haden, Van Sant, Rancid's Tim Armstrong, billionaire businessman Ron Burkle, Bad Religion founding member Brett Gurewitz, actresses Rosanna Arquette and Christina Applegate, director Roland Emmerich and Shepard Fairey.
At the end of Young's set, the veteran rocker said with his twisted smile, "Thanks. If you like me, give money to the school. That'll make me happy."

Alternately funny, menacing, and deeply empathetic, the eight wildly inventive stories in The Peripatetic Coffin mark the debut of a powerful new voice in contemporary fiction. Worried about waning enrollment, the head counselor of the world's worst summer camp leads his campers on a series of increasingly dubious escapades in an effort to revive their esprit de corps. A young boy on a sailing vacation with his father comes face to face with a dangerous stranger, and witnesses a wrenching act of violence. Parents estranged from their disturbed son must gird themselves for his visit, even as they cannot face each other. And in the dazzling title story, the beleaguered crew of the first Confederate submarine embarks on their final, doomed mission during the closing days of the Civil War. Whether set aboard a Tsarist-era Russian ship locked in Arctic ice, on a futuristic whaling expedition whose depredations guarantee the environmental catastrophe that is their undoing, or in the suburban basement where two grade-school friends articulate their mutual obsessions, these strange, imaginative, and refreshingly original stories explore the ways in which we experience the world: as it is, as it could be, and the dark contours that lie between.
New story — "Ghost Story" — in Tin House 77.

pe-we necesitaba un nuevo diseño de página web y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 22 diseños de 6 diseñadores freelance.
Brand name, logo and design have not been decided yet. Please keep the design relatively neutral with respect to logo.
Our company is launching a new service based in Germany. In the event of death, customers will be able to buy funerals, tombstones and maintenance contracts for tombs, or will be able to proactively buy a savings plan for themselves years and decades before their death will presumably happen. Your job is to create a design for our website.
There are two main audiences:
1. People suffering from losing a loved family member. They are seeking a dignified way to lay the dead person to rest. They are most likely to buy a funeral, tombstone and maintenance contract.
2. People having been made aware of our offer to save money for their own funeral. They intend to organize their own death according to their own wishes beforehand.
Both groups will need to see a dignified and in all cases tasteful website in front of them. The following words and examples characterize the style that we aim for:
* dignified
* tasteful
* peaceful
* trustworthy
* simple, easy-to-use, clean
* http://www.ruheforst-wildenburgerland.de/ (peaceful)
* http://www.leben-und-erfolg.de/ (clean)
* http://www.americanmonument.com (positive, but the header could be less tall)
* http://www.monuments.com/
* You can include images of trees, water or people if you think they would be working towards the design goals.
Examples of inappropriate styles would be:
* bright colors, "cheap" look
* http://www.ebay.de/ (too happy, too friendly)
* http://yahoo.com/ (too overloaded)
* http://www.gravestones.org.uk/ (appears nearly empty, low contrast)
* http://www.trustmemorials.com (overloaded, ugly color set)
Your job is:
1. to create a layout that will be used for all pages (header, menu, footer and text-styles for the page body).
2. to create an appealing homepage that has:
2.a. a small text area where we will be explaining in general terms what our service is about
2.b. four highly-visible buttons that will lead the customers to four "sub-brands" (shops equipped with different items) targeted at their specific needs. The actual text on those buttons is probably not relevant to you. Just keep in mind that the customers are supposed to choose one of them.
3. to create a style for text (a web-font, a font-size with at least 14px height and a line-height).
* A footer with a few rarely used text-links. It can be nearly invisible.
* A single menu that has room for about 20 items with 4 subsections which have a one-word header each. We will be linking to informative material from it.
* Please create a "highlight" style that we can apply to some of the menu items in order to make the more important ones more prominent.
* Please use a fixed-width layout of 960px width.
* Almost all of our pages will need to have a generous content area that should be in the foreground.
We will be commenting on your designs and try to help you to match our expectations. Please leave any comments you might have on improving this design brief! Thank you.

It's possible that when you visit your site, you see an error that states 'Site Not Found':
This article guides you through why you may be seeing this error and how to resolve it.
The 'Site Not Found' error means the IP address your domain is using is not pointed to the correct IP.
More technically, the 'Site Not Found' error means that the DNS records for your domain are resolving to the IP address of an Apache web server service that is not configured for your domain.
When this happens, the Apache web server is designed to just show the first domain listed in its config file. To make sure that
nobody's site ever accidentally shows a random site hosted on the same Apache service, DreamHost makes the first domain in all its config files show the same custom error page.
There are a few reasons why your IP may not be correctly pointed to your web server IP which are explained below.
Due to the way that DreamHost configures Apache, unless you have purchased a Unique IP address for your domain, attempting to view your site by entering the IP address in your browser automatically gives you the Site not found error. This is because you're viewing the shared IP of your web server, not the IP of your site.
If you absolutely need to view your site through an IP address, you must purchase a Unique IP. You can read more about Unique IPs here:
Frequently this error appears due to a change in your IP address, which is commonly triggered by removing hosting for a domain and then setting up a MIRROR, REDIRECT, PARK, or CLOAK. While changes to the DreamHost DNS are nearly instantaneous, the new information doesn't reach other servers around the world until the other servers expire the old data that they are holding on to. This is referred to as DNS propagation.
The reason why you get this error during this period of time is that the DNS information you are receiving to your local computer is outdated, and the Apache instance that you are being incorrectly sent to no longer has any record of your site. Depending on your location, it can take up to several hours for DNS changes to propagate, so the best thing to do is leave your domain alone for a few hours before attempting any sort of fix.
In addition, if you go to
and click the small 'DNS' link under a domain, you are presented with a DNS page.
When you click the blue Go! button at the top, a DNS update is forced in DreamHost's system. But again, DNS propagation online may still take several hours.
To check on the status of your DNS update, you can visit what's my DNS? to see what IP address your domain currently resolves to.
If you're using a Linux or Mac computer, you can also run some commands in your terminal to check the current IP of your site. Visit the SSH article regarding how to log in to your terminal:
Once logged in to your terminal, you can run the 'dig' command to check the status of the IP resolution. For example, this command checks for the current IP address resolving online in your location. (Your IP is different depending on the server on which your site is located.):
[server]$ dig +short example.com 126.96.36.199
This command checks the current IP assigned to your DreamHost web server. (Your IP is different depending on the server on which your site is located.)
[server]$ dig +short example.com @ns1.dreamhost.com 18.104.22.168
If example.com is using DreamHost nameservers, you should be getting the same IP with both commands. If not, try flushing your local DNS. You can read about this in the following article:
Windows users can use the "nslookup" command using the command prompt. You can read more about using the command prompt in Windows here:
C:\Users\user> nslookup example.com Name: example.com Address: 220.127.116.11
This command checks for the current IP address resolving online in your location. (Your IP is different depending on the server on which your site is located.)
C:\Users\user> nslookup example.com ns1.dreamhost.com Name: example.com Address: 22.214.171.124
This command checks the current IP assigned to your DreamHost nameserver. (Your IP is different depending on the server your site is located.)
If example.com is using DreamHost nameservers, you should be getting the same IP with both commands. If not, try flushing your local DNS. You can read about this in the following article:
There are several ways to solve this problem.
If this problem appears shortly after making a configuration change for the domain in the control panel, this could be caused by the IP address changing for that domain. If that's the case, this error should go away within about 4 hours – once the DNS change propagates throughout the Internet. This is normal. If it doesn't go away after 6 hours, then try the following troubleshooting techniques.
Go to
in your panel and click on the Edit button to the right of the domain under the 'Web Hosting' column.
There's no need to change anything on this page. Simply save by pressing the blue Change settings button. Then wait up to 10 minutes to see if the problem is solved. With this solution you've simply rebuilt the httpd configuration file on the web server.
If you aren't using DreamHost to manage your domain's DNS, most likely the IP address that points to DreamHost by your DNS provider is incorrect.
You can figure out the correct IP by querying the DreamHost nameserver with one of the commands in the above section (depending on your Operating System).
Log in to your panel at
Click the 'DNS' link under your domain.
When the Manage Domains page opens, find the A record in the "non-editable" section.
Update your A record with your DNS provider to point to this DreamHost IP.
Once the DNS propagates, the sleepy DreamHost robot should no longer appear.
For accounts that are suspended due to non-payment, DreamHost will stop serving the DNS for the account. Your sites will then show the 'Site Not Found' page until you are paid up and re-activate the account. Log in to your control panel or check your emails from DreamHost to see if this may be the case.
If you cannot solve this problem using the suggestions above, please feel free to contact support for further assistance.
You can contact support through your panel at
. Or visit the following article for other contact methods:
This problem, or one like it, occasionally manifests on domains that use Passenger WSGI. In this case, the error appears differently in that the server error page does not get displayed.
Symptoms may include:
Other domains on the same account and server working correctly.
Timeouts trying to access the site.
No Passenger processes showing up when running ps -A from the shell.
In this instance, the solution is the same – edit the domain and click Change Settings. Then wait for it to propagate. You can also try disabling and re-enabling Passenger on the same domain edit page as well.
This changes the domain configuration settings without altering the domain DNS records.
This will NOT work for cloaked domains since the cloaking service is on a special machine and the DNS will ALWAYS have to change when activating/deactivating cloaked domains.

Below-freezing temperatures and the possibility of 10 to14 inches of snow is no match for the fever that is Justin Bieber.
With the pop star's appearance on "Saturday Night Live" a day away, dozens of hardcore fans camped outside 30 Rockefeller Center for a chance to snag tickets to the show.
Olivia Bee, Allyssa Yohana and Ashley Avila have been outside NBC Studios since 1 p.m Thursday. They even slept in a tent in the cold.
"We just snuggled up together," Bee, 18, said. "Like little bunnies. We just burrowed together. We were really comfortable."
Once the rain began around 6:30 a.m., their sweet slumber was over. Bee said the trio at one point was sleeping in a puddle and authorities asked them to move. They weren't sure who had given them the boot.
"The snow isn't that bad," Yohana, 20, said. "It was the rain that was killing us."
In order to keep warm during the day, they sang and danced along to Bieber classics, "Beauty and the Beat," "As Long as You Love Me" and of course, "Baby."

Stevens Unveils Ambitious Ten-Year Strategic Plan
Stevens President Nariman Farvardin has unveiled the university's bold and ambitious ten-year strategic plan, an agenda designed to exploit Stevens' technology-centric capabilities to address the most challenging problems of our time.
Entitled, "The Future. Ours to Create," the plan charts the course for an institution that will grow in size, increase in selectivity, and focus strategically in education and research domains that tackle complex, societal challenges involving technology solutions for which Stevens has distinctive capacity and expertise.
"The strategic plan reflects our shared commitment that Stevens will play a leading role in solving the most pressing and complex global challenges of the 21st century," said Farvardin. "It envisions a bold but achievable future that increases our impact by drawing on the distinctive characteristics that comprise Stevens – our technology-centric orientation, our unparalleled access to New York City, our agility, our collaborative culture, and the very significant contributions our faculty and alumni have made across a wide range of fields over the past 140 years."
The strategic plan was developed by a committee of campus leaders appointed by President Farvardin and included direct input from more than 500 members of the Stevens community, including faculty, staff, students, administrators, alumni and friends. It identifies five key strategic priorities that will be the focus of Stevens for the next ten years: becoming a wholly student-centric university; committing to excellence in all university activities; collaborating internally and externally on education and research; placing technology at the core of all university activities; and improving the university's prestige.
In direct alignment with these strategic priorities, some of the major goals and actions to be achieved by 2022 include:
- Growing the student population. Stevens aims to grow undergraduate enrollment to approximately 4,000 students, up from approximately 2,500 today. The undergraduate student body will exemplify a higher academic profile and be more diverse with respect to gender, ethnicity, geography and course of study. Stevens will also increase the size of its full-time graduate student population by 30 percent while enhancing selectivity and diversity.
- Revitalizing educational programs. The strategic plan calls for undergraduate curriculum changes to focus on interdisciplinary research, critical thinking, community service, K-12 STEM mentoring and international experience. Stevens also plans to expand its portfolio of academic choices, construct a new University Center, open a Digital Learning Laboratory focused on technology-enhanced learning, and double the number of off-campus and corporate graduate partnerships.
- Growing the research enterprise. Stevens will add at least three national centers, deploy policies that enable faculty to conduct and publish high quality research, introduce initiatives to better support faculty in the pursuit of entrepreneurial activities, and open an Innovation & Design Laboratory (IDL) which drives the interaction between faculty, students, and resident innovators and entrepreneurs.
- Enhancing interdisciplinary education and research. Targeted sectors include areas of the greatest societal need, including sustainable energy, healthcare and medicine, defense and security, finance and STEM education.
In what Farvardin called "a phenomenal year," Stevens has recently achieved key milestones and made momentous progress in a number of areas, building excellent momentum for the upcoming expansion.
In 2012, Stevens welcomed the largest and most academically talented class of undergraduates in university history, including a record 32 percent women in the entering class, as well as a graduate student cohort that is 33 percent larger than last year. In addition, Stevens increased its first-year retention rate for returning sophomores to more than 94 percent, a new record for the university.
Other significant recent initiatives include: the launch of the Hanlon Financial Systems Lab, a state-of-the-art financial research and teaching facility; the upcoming President's Distinguished Lecture Series, featuring thought leaders in science and technology; the introduction of a slate of new academic programs which will pave the way for the infusion of many talented to new students; and the hiring of Gregory Prastacos, the new dean of the Howe School of Technology Management, as well as a cadre of strong and energetic new faculty and staff members in key positions.
The university's recent successes have earned Stevens recognition in national college rankings including Bloomberg Businessweek's list of top universities for student return on investment (23rd overall) and an advance of 13 spots in U.S. News & World Report's list of best national universities (75th overall).
Finally, building off a highly successful fundraising year in which Stevens raised $13.8 million in gifts and pledges, a 189 percent increase over last year, Farvardin has announced the receipt of a record-setting $10 million gift from alumnus Greg Gianforte '83, founder of RightNow Technologies which he sold to Oracle last year for more than $1.5 billion.
The gift will fund the construction of an academic building that will enable interdisciplinary research. With the university's expected growth, the gift will provide critical space and is the first step in the campus transformation.
"The entire Stevens community believes that the distinctive technological education Stevens provides will not only shape the future, but will have a transformative impact on our national and global society," Farvardin said. "Through this plan, Stevens will emerge as an influential leader in education, research, and in developing solutions to the complex problems of the 21st century."

Hanover council approves 25 percent property tax increase
More than 100 residents attend meeting
Property taxes in Hanover will increase next year following a controversial vote by borough council Wednesday night.
The 25 percent tax hike, which could have been higher, was unanimously approved by council. Initially, the proposed tax increase was 38 percent.
More than 100 people attended the meeting to oppose the measure.
"Their definition of what an essential service is, is different than the everyday person," said resident Joe Tatela.
"I think they were frustrated because the council wants to pass a budget and I hope that they will come back and answer some of these things and maybe take them back off the table," said resident Jeff Brady.
"We can always cut. There's always room for improvement and we're going to look at it after the first of the year," said Council President John Gerken.
The tax increase takes effect next week.

London-based studio is also upgrading a second sound suite to 5.1 after seeing an increase in high-end TV audio post-production work.
Wise Buddah Studios has appointed former Pinewood Studios mixer James Doyle [pictured] as its new dubbing mixer.
Doyle joins as the studio is upgrading a second sound suite to 5.1 after seeing an increase in high-end TV audio post-production work. The move signals the start of a 24-month process, to be managed by senior engineer Jon Last, that will see the whole of Wise Buddah's central London facility upgraded.
Wise Buddah managing director Dave Holt commented: "As well as adding more capacity for 5.1 mixing, the addition of a well specified foley space will improve our capabilities for both TV and advertising clients. At the same time, talent is a key ingredient of what we do so having James join the team, with his enthusiasm and experience, will significantly bolster our TV and film offering, helping us to take further advantage of the opportunities that we've been developing in recent years."
Recent audio post-production credits for the studio include the 5.1 mix on Girls Aloud Ten for MTV as well as Totally Bonkers Guinness World Records (ITV/IMG Media), Goodbye Television Centre (BBC) and ADR work on House of Anubis (Lime Pictures/Nickelodeon).

This Readme discusses the known issues for iFolder™ 3.6 for OES 2 Linux and for the iFolder™ client for iFolder™ 3.6.
This section describes known issues for the iFolder enterprise server, Web Access server, and Web Admin server.
When you attempt to configure an iFolder user account, either it takes a longer time (90 to 20 seconds) than expected or it throws a Timeout error. In the latter case, further iFolder operations fail and you cannot create a new account until the old one is removed. Due to this partial account creation, user account details have incorrect information and certain operations throw exception error.
The workaround for this issue is:
Go to /var/simias/data/simias directory and open the Simias.config file.
Search for Context dn in the config file.
Add each sub-container or sub-context or usergroup or dynamic group one after the other.
For eg:
Context dn="ou=<prv>,o=<novell>"/
Context dn="ou=<blr>,o=<novell>"/
Context dn="cn=<usergroup>,o=<novell>"/
Context dn="cn=<dynamicgroup>,o=<novell>"/
Make sure that for all the above serach context, read rights are given for the iFolder proxy users.
Save the file and restart Apache to load the new contexts with appropriate users.
An automatic pre-beta 5 to FCS upgrade is not supported. To upgrade the iFolder server from a prior beta version (beta1 to beta 4) to FCS, follow the steps given below:
Right-click the desktop and select.
At the command prompt, enter rpm -Uvh --force ifolder3-enterprise-3.6.0.xxxx-1-2.1.i586.rpm
NOTE:Replace xxxx with the FCS build revision number.
IMPORTANT:The format for the version number for the iFolder enterprise server RPM is 3.6.0.xxxx. For example, ifolder3-enterprise-22.214.171.12426.1-2.
When you convert a normal folder to an iFolder by using Nautilus, the change in the icon is not reflected if your iFolder client runs on SLED 10. This issue is fixed on SLED 10 SP1.
The iFolder 3.6 installed and conffigured on NSS volumes fails to function after the server upgrade from OES 1 SP2 to OES2. The potential cause is that the Simias.config file created during the upgrade is missing.
The workaround is:
Take the file system backup of iFolder 3.2 data store and Simias.config file.
Default location is /var/lib/wwwrun/.local/share/Simias.config.
Ensure that you know the iFolder Proxy user password.
Open a terminal console and enter /opt/novell/ifolder3/bin/simias-server-setup --upgrade.
Follow the on-screen instruction to manually upgrade the server.
In a Multi-server setup, where a master server connected to two slave servers, and an iFolder user is removed from LDAP, the iFolders that belong to that user are not displayed as orphans.
When you attempt to upload large files of size more than 1 GB, upload is cancelled and iFolder throws an exception.
To resolve this, you must install the latest Mono® and XSP patches which is available through Novell Customer center.
To apply the patches,
Install iFolder with OES 2.
During OES 2 configuration, select.
Complete the Novell Customer Center System Registration procedure.
Continue with the remaining steps for configuration.
Once you complete the configuration, opento resolve the dependencies and apply the Software patches available on your machine.
In the Web Admin console, if the LDAP context is changed, then the proxy user does not have the rights to browse the user identity in the context. The workaround is to execute simias-server-setup --updateLdap in the terminal console. The command line utility is available at /opt/novell/ifolder3/bin.
If you log in to the iFolder server using the thick client, log out, then attempt to convert a normal folder to an iFolder by using Nautilus, you can see that the folder is converted to an iFolder. This is because Simias runs even after your exit from the client, allowing the Nautilus plug-in to perform all the operations equivalent to the iFolder client.
Irrespective of the status of the data store, both theand buttons are active when you select a data store. In other words, even if the data store is enabled, the button stays active and when the data store is disabled, the button stays active. When you select any part of the data store and click the button (if the data store is enabled), both the buttons becomes inactive. This does not affect any functionality.
During iFolder configuration via YaST, installing an iFolder slave server into an existing domain does not update the Simias.config file with the given LDAP search context unless it is same as that of the master iFolder server.
The workaround for this issue is that to update the LDAP search context in the simias-server-setup --updateLdap in the terminal console. The command line utility is available at /opt/novell/ifolder3/bin.page of the Web Admin console and execute
When an iFolder user transfers the ownership of an iFolder to you, and subsequently you attempt to delete that iFolder through Web Access, an exception stack trace is displayed in the browser.
When you transfer the ownership of an iFolder to a new member, and subsequently you attempt to remove your membership from that iFolder, an exception stack trace is displayed in the browser.
The first attempt to log in to both Web Admin and Web Access fails when the server is first configured. The potential cause for this issue is the prolonged time duration taken to complete the LDAP sync. The workaround for this issue is to restart the Apache server.
The Redirect URL configured for iFolder Web consoles fails when you access iFolder through NetWare Access Gateway.
The SSO with identity injection to the iFolder Web Access fails if the previous session cookie exists in the machine.
This section describes known issues for iFolder client for Linux.
An automatic pre-beta 5 (beta1 to beta 4) upgrade to FCS is not supported. To upgrade the iFolder client from a prior beta version to FCS, you must uninstall the existing client and install the new version of the iFolder client software.
To force upgrade the existing client,
Right-click the desktop and select.
At the command prompt, enter the following commands in the order given:
NOTE:Replace xxxx with the FCS build revision number.
IMPORTANT:The format for the version number for the iFolder client and the iFolder enterprise server RPMs is 3.6.0.xxxx. For example, ifolder3-184.108.40.20626.1-2.
Modifying any file in an encrypted iFolder performs a full sync to the iFolder server, instead of synchronizing only the changes.
This section describes known issues for iFolder client for Windows.
An automatic pre-beta 5 (beta 1 to beta 4) upgrade to FCS is not supported. To upgrade the iFolder client from a prior beta version to FCS, you must uninstall the existing client and install the new version of the iFolder client software.
IMPORTANT:The format for the version number for the iFolder client exe is 3.6.0.xxxx. For example, ifolder3-184.108.40.20626.1-2.exe
It takes long hours to upload multiple files of total size larger than 1 GB. The workaround is to apply the latest Mono® and XSP patches to iFolder.
To apply the patches, see the workaround described in Section 2.6, Large File Upload Fails.
If you create an encrypted iFolder through the Web Access console or Linux client and log in to the Windows client, but do not provide a passphrase at the time of login, then you attempt to download the iFolder from the Windows client, iFolder downloads the encrypted iFolder as it is without prompting for the passphrase. It also fails to synchronize any files in the downloaded iFolder.
When you attempt to migrate iFolder 2.x to 3.6, the Migration Wizard randomly throws exception error even though it successfully migrated to iFolder 3.6.
Modifying any file in an encrypted iFolder performs a full sync to the iFolder server, instead of synchronizing only the changes.
If you install the iFolder Windows client and create a new account, then clickto locate a folder to upload, iFolder crashes and throws an error message.
The workaround for this issue is to uninstall iFolder and .NET, and install them again.
When you attempt to change the server IP address byoption, the dialog box does not show the change you made.
When you right-click any normal folder, theoption is not available in Windows Explorer.

Allen Iverson is an All-Star once again.
The Sixers guard was voted onto the Eastern Conference team of the 2010 NBA All-Star Game, the team announced late Thursday.
Iverson received 1.2 million votes from fans coming in second place among Eastern Conference guards.
"The fans make us, you know, without the fans there wouldn't be no us," Iverson said after Thursday night's game against the Denver Nuggets. "They make us a household name."
For Iverson, who resurrected his role at the Wachovia Center just a few months ago, this will be his 11th consecutive All-Star Game. He went to his first game back in 2000 as a Sixer.
"For them to vote me in, you know, being that I don't play, what, 20 games or less, um, says a lot of them appreciating what I do on the basketball court," he said.
Iverson is the last Sixer to make it on the team since 2006.

We are using Geolocation (
getCurrentPosition()) in a website to determine a users position when using our site from a mobile device.
I want to write an article explaining how the user can obtain the best results.
Am I correct in assuming:
- Enabling GPS will yield the best result when in rural areas (less buildings to obscure line of sight to the satelites)
- Enabling Wi-Fi will yield the best results when in urban areas (generally more Wi-Fi hotspots available)
- Is it true that Android phones have better results from silently harvesting Wi-Fi hotspot details?
Any links to reference material on this are appreciated

Original authors are in bold.
We all have those rifles with the 30+ inch long barrels, and if all you have to clean these barrels is one of those Walmart cheapo one piece steel rods, then your probably forced to clean from the muzzle, and even then the rod sometimes isn't long enough to reach the full length of the barrel, all the way into the action. Not only that, but steel rods bend too easily, and the coating around them scraped off too easily. But you don't want to spend $40 on a super fancy rod. You can make your own for $2.
For cleaning rifle barrels .30 and up, you will need a 48" long 1/4" diameter fiberglass driveway marker from Lowes in the hardware section. A threaded brass jag, the kind that lets you screw on different attachments onto it. And a small block of wood to form the handle. You can carve your own handle if you can't find one.
First cut the reflector off the top of the driveway marker, then flatten both ends with a file.
Put the fiberglass rod into a padded vice, and carefully drill a shallow hole into one end. I drilled a hole about a 1/4" down the rod, which was long enough for me to attach the threaded piece of the universal brass jag. Then I cleaned the hole with alcohol, as well as the jag. Mix up a little JB weld, put in in the hole, and stick your jag in place. The hardest part is keeping the jag straight with the rod while the weld dries. I found you will want to just wait until the JB weld has thickened up a good bit before adjusting the jag.
Once it's dry, use a file to clean up the excess JB weld. Now you can attach your wooden handle. I just so happened to have an old wooden table leg laying around, I cut it to length, and drilled a 1/4" hole down into the handle 1" down. Degrease it, put some JB weld in the hole, and stuck the rod down in there. For added strength you can drill a hole through the handle (when it's dry) and insert a brass screw through the handle, then cut it off and both ends.
This rod is long enough to clean my 31 inch barreled 71/84 Mauser, and from the chamber end, it also works great on my Turkish Mauser and 91/30. The brass jag allows you to screw on whatever attachment you wish, brushes, mops, pointed jags, slotted tips. The fiberglass is extremely strong, it takes alot of bending before it will snap. And it will induce zero wear on the bore, unlike a steel rod.

I have made several of these cleaning rods they work good. Here is a link were you can buy brass ram rod tips.
If i remembered right the 7/16 tip fits that fiberglass rod with out turning it down. They come in 10-32 and 8-32 threads.
Midsouthshooters also has the brass attachments, allows you to attach virtually anything from .22 jags to .50 cal jags, .22 brushed to .50 cal brushes, and you can attach onto that a shotgun adapter. Personally I really didn't see the use in making more than 1 rod. The rod I have works for nearly everything, and it only takes a few seconds to swab attachments. For my smaller bored commercial weapons I still use my walmart rod, but I like my homemade rod for all the big boys, .43 Mauser, 30-06, 7.92, 7.62.
Here are the rods that inspired Tom to make his cleaning rod. When I went to Yuma, AZ last year to visit with Tom and his family, we put in a little range time.
When Tom saw my cleaning rod, he asked where I had got them. I told him that I had made them and how.
Tom, My hats off to you, great job on the cleaning rod. :thumb:
I've made couple cleaning rods out of some old 1/4" phosphor bronze brazing rod. Basically face off one end nice and flat and slightly chamfer the sides. Then center drill 8x32 or whatever size I need for the brush, jag, patch holder. And the other end thread 1/4x20 and make up an aluminum handle from some 1" aluminum round stock about 4" long. Drill and tap one end 1/4x20 screw the handle on to the rod and go cleaning. The phosphor bronze has the advantage of being 36" long and slightly stronger than brass and I've found it to flex less than either brass or aluminum rods. It gets wiped down after every pass through the bbl. And I still use a brass rod guide regardless of what my rods are made out of. I have a section of 3/8" phospor bronze brazing rod that I plan on making up for my armi-sport zouave 58 caliber muzzle loader and for the handle will use a piece of 1" copper-nickle round stock. Will drill and tap for the different attachments for muzzle loading, and cleaning. When polished up should look pretty spiffy. And have a 3/8" rod brass muzzle guide for this rod. Frank
Well, the board is either fixed, or it's going to run terribly. Cross your fingers and hope for the best. I'm at my technical limit right now.

Re: Make your own super long cleaning rod
What a great idea! I am a cheapo and just bought two sectional rod sets and screwed in an extra section to give me the right length. the one piece rod is a better idea.
Re: Make your own super long cleaning rod
I appreciate the idea but be careful. If you even get fiberglass splinters in your hands you'll long remember it.

Fiberglass is no joke. Gotta wait for that stuff to work it's way out.
