If passed by the senate this week, your economic stimulus bill will not fix the nation's problem.
It's the Federal Reserve, stupid.
President John F.Kennedy,
The Federal Reserve
And Executive Order 11110
by Cedric X
On June 4, 1963, a little known attempt was made to strip the Federal Reserve Bank of its power to loan money to the government at interest. On that day President John F. Kennedy signed Executive Order No. 11110 that returned to the U.S. government the power to issue currency, without going through the Federal Reserve.
Mr. Kennedy's order gave the Treasury the power "to issue silver certificates against any silver bullion, silver, or standard silver dollars in the Treasury." This meant that for every ounce of silver in the U.S. Treasury's vault, the government could introduce new money into circulation. In all, Kennedy brought nearly $4.3 billion in U.S. notes into circulation. The ramifications of this bill are enormous.
With the stroke of a pen, Mr. Kennedy was on his way to putting the Federal Reserve Bank of New York out of business. If enough of these silver certificates were to come into circulation they would have eliminated the demand for Federal Reserve notes. This is because the silver certificates are backed by silver and the Federal Reserve notes are not backed by anything.
Executive Order 11110 could have prevented the national debt from reaching its current level, because it would have given the government the ability to repay its debt without going to the Federal Reserve and being charged interest in order to create the new money. Executive Order 11110 gave the U.S. the ability to create its own money backed by silver.
After Mr. Kennedy was assassinated just five months later, no more silver certificates were issued. The Final Call has learned that the Executive Order was never repealed by any U.S. President through an Executive Order and is still valid. Why then has no president utilized it? Virtually all of the current $10 trillion in debt has been created since 1963, and if a U.S. president had utilized Executive Order 11110 the debt would be nowhere near the current level.
Perhaps the assassination of JFK was a warning to future presidents who would think to eliminate the U.S. debt by eliminating the Federal Reserve's control over the creation of money.
Mr. Kennedy challenged the government of money by challenging the two most successful vehicles that have ever been used to drive up debt – war and the creation of money by a privately-owned central bank. His efforts to have all troops out of Vietnam by 1965 and Executive Order 11110 would have severely cut into the profits and control of the New York banking establishment.
As America's debt reaches unprecedented numbers and we wage an international war on terror which is further increasing America's debt, one is forced to ask, will President Obama have the courage to consider utilizing Executive Order 11110 and, if so, is he willing to pay the ultimate price so that the average American can pay for food and shelter?
Here is the text of Kennedy's original Executive Order:
Executive Order 11110 AMENDMENT OF EXECUTIVE ORDER NO. 10289
By virtue of the authority vested in me by section 301 of title 3 of the United States Code, it is ordered as follows:
Section 1. Executive Order No. 10289 of September 19, 1951, as amended, is hereby further amended-
By adding at the end of paragraph 1 thereof the following subparagraph (j):
(j) The authority vested in the President by paragraph (b) of section 43 of the Act of May 12,1933, as amended (31 U.S.C.821(b)), to issue silver certificates against any silver bullion, silver, or standard silver dollars in the Treasury not then held for redemption of any outstanding silver certificates, to prescribe the denomination of such silver certificates, and to coin standard silver dollars and subsidiary silver currency for their redemption
and —
By revoking subparagraphs (b) and (c) of paragraph 2 thereof.
Sec. 2. The amendments made by this Order shall not affect any act done, or any right accruing or accrued or any suit or proceeding had or commenced in any civil or criminal cause prior to the date of this Order but all such liabilities shall continue and may be enforced as if said amendments had not been made.
John F. Kennedy The White House, June 4, 1963.
Of course, the fact that both JFK and Lincoln tried this (and both met the the same end) is a mere coincidence.
Abraham Lincoln's Monetary Policy, 1865 (Page 91 of Senate document 23.)
Money is the creature of law and the creation of the original issue of money should be maintained as the exclusive monopoly of national Government.
Money possesses no value to the State other than that given to it by circulation.
Capital has its proper place and is entitled to every protection. The wages of men should be recognised in the structure of and in the social order as more important than the wages of money.
No duty is more imperative for the Government than the duty it owes the People to furnish them with a sound and uniform currency, and of regulating the circulation of the medium of exchange so that labour will be protected from a vicious currency, and commerce will be facilitated by cheap and safe exchanges.
The available supply of Gold and Silver being wholly inadequate to permit the issuance of coins of intrinsic value or paper currency convertible into coin in the volume required to serve the needs of the People, some other basis for the issue of currency must be developed, and some means other than that of convertibility into coin must be developed to prevent undue fluctuation in the value of paper currency or any other substitute for money of intrinsic value that may come into use.
The monetary needs of increasing numbers of People advancing towards higher standards of living can and should be met by the Government. Such needs can be served by the issue of National Currency and Credit through the operation of a National Banking system .The circulation of a medium of exchange issued and backed by the Government can be properly regulated and redundancy of issue avoided by withdrawing from circulation such amounts as may be necessary by Taxation, Redeposit, and otherwise. Government has the power to regulate the currency and credit of the Nation.
Government should stand behind its currency and credit and the Bank deposits of the Nation. No individual should suffer a loss of money through depreciation or inflated currency or Bank bankruptcy.
Government possessing the power to create and issue currency and creditas money and enjoying the right to withdraw both currency and credit from circulation by Taxation and otherwise need not and should not borrow capital at interest as a means of financing Governmental work and public enterprise. The Government should create, issue, and circulate all the currency and credit needed to satisfy the spending power of the Government and the buying power of the consumers. The privilege of creating and issueing money is not only the supreme prerogative of Government, but it is the Governments greatest creative opportunity.
By the adoption of these principles the long felt want for a uniform medium will be satisfied. The taxpayers will be saved immense sums of interest, discounts, and exchanges. The financing of all public enterprise, the maintenance of stable Government and ordered progress, and the conduct of the Treasury will become matters of practical administration. The people can and will be furnished with a currency as safe as their own Government. Money will cease to be master and become the servant of humanity. Democracy will rise superior to the money power.
What most Americans don't understand is that the Federal Reserve is not Federal (look for it in the blue government pages of your local phonebook. It's not there because it is a private corporation), nor does it have a reserve.
One of the most common concerns among people who engage in any effort to reduce their taxes is, "Will keeping my money hurt the government's ability to pay it's bills?" As explained in the first article in this series, the modern withholding tax does not, and wasn't designed to, pay for government services. What it does do, is pay for the privately-owned Federal Reserve System.
Black's Law Dictionary defines the "Federal Reserve System" as, "Network of twelve central banks to which most national banks belong and to which state chartered banks may belong. Membership rules require investment of stock and minimum reserves."
Privately-owned banks own the stock of the Fed. This was explained in more detail in the case of Lewis v. United States, Federal Reporter, 2nd Series, Vol. 680, Pages 1239, 1241 (1982), where the court said:
Each Federal Reserve Bank is a separate corporation owned by commercial banks in its region. The stock-holding commercial banks elect two thirds of each Bank's nine member board of directors.
Similarly, the Federal Reserve Banks, though heavily regulated, are locally controlled by their member banks. Taking another look at Black's Law Dictionary, we find that these privately owned banks actually issue money:
Federal Reserve Act. Law which created Federal Reserve banks which act as agents in maintaining money reserves, issuing money in the form of bank notes, lending money to banks, and supervising banks. Administered by Federal Reserve Board (q.v.).
The FED banks, which are privately owned, actually issue, that is, create, the money we use. In 1964 the House Committee on Banking and Currency, Subcommittee on Domestic Finance, at the second session of the 88th Congress, put out a study entitled Money Facts which contains a good description of what the FED is:
The Federal Reserve is a total money-making machine.It can issue money or checks. And it never has a problem of making its checks good because it can obtain the $5 and $10 bills necessary to cover its check simply by asking the Treasury Department's Bureau of Engraving to print them.
As we all know, anyone who has a lot of money has a lot of power. Now imagine a group of people who have the power to create money. Imagine the power these people would have. This is what the Fed is.
No man did more to expose the power of the Fed than Louis T. McFadden, who was the Chairman of the House Banking Committee back in the 1930s. Constantly pointing out that monetary issues shouldn't be partisan, he criticized both the Herbert Hoover and Franklin Roosevelt administrations. In describing the Fed, he remarked in the Congressional Record, House pages 1295 and 1296 on June 10, 1932, that:
"Mr. Chairman,we have in this country one of the most corrupt institutions the world has ever known. I refer to the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal reserve banks. The Federal Reserve Board, a Government Board, has cheated the Government of the United States and he people of the United States out of enough money to pay the national debt. The depredations and the iniquities of the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal reserve banks acting together have cost this country enough money to pay the national debt several times over. This evil institution has impoverished and ruined the people of the UnitedStates; has bankrupted itself, and has practically bankrupted our Government. It has done this through the maladministration of that law by which the Federal Reserve Board, and through the corrupt practices of the moneyed vultures who control it."
Some people think the Federal reserve banks are United States Government institutions. They are not Government institutions. They are private credit monopolies which prey upon the people of the United States for the benefit of themselves and their foreign customers; foreign and domestic speculators and swindlers; and rich and predatory money lenders. In that dark crew of financial pirates there are those who would cut a man's throat to get a dollar out of his pocket; there are those who send money into States to buy votes to control our legislation; and there are those who maintain an international propaganda for the purpose of deceiving us and of wheedling us into the granting of new concessions which will permit them to cover up their past misdeeds and set again in motion their gigantic train of crime. Those 12 private credit monopolies were deceitfully and disloyally foisted upon this country by bankers who camehere from Europe and who repaid us for our hospitality by undermining our American institutions.
The Fed basically works like this: The government granted its power to create money to the Fed banks. They create money, then loan it back to the government charging interest. The government levies income taxes to pay the interest on the debt.
On this point, it's interesting to note that the Federal Reserve act and the sixteenth amendment, which gave congress the power to collect income taxes, were both passed in 1913. The incredible power of the Fed over the economy is universally admitted. Some people, especially in the banking and academic communities, even support it. On the other hand, there are those, both in the past and in the present, that speak out against it. One of these men was President John F. Kennedy. His efforts were detailed in Jim Marrs' 1990 book, Crossfire:
Another overlooked aspect of Kennedy's attempt to reform American society involves money. Kennedy apparently reasoned that by returning to the constitution, which states that only Congress shall coin and regulate money, the soaring national debt could be reduced by not paying interest to the bankers of the Federal Reserve System, who print paper money then loan it to the government at interest. He moved in this area on June 4, 1963, by signing Executive Order 11,110 which called for the issuance of $4,292,893,815 in United States Notes through the U.S. Treasury rather than the traditional Federal Reserve System. That same day, Kennedy signed a bill changing the backing of one and two dollar bills from silver to gold, adding strength to the weakened U.S. currency.
Kennedy's comptroller of the currency, James J. Saxon, had been at odds with the powerful Federal Reserve Board for some time, encouraging broader investment and lending powers for banks that were not part of the Federal Reserve system. Saxon also had decided that non-Reserve banks could underwrite state and local general obligation bonds, again weakening the dominant Federal Reserve banks.
A number of "Kennedy bills" were indeed issued – the author has a five dollar bill in his possession with the heading "United States Note" – but were quickly withdrawn after Kennedy's death. According to information from the Library of the Comptroller of the Currency, Executive Order 11,110 remains in effect today, although successive administrations beginning with that of President Lyndon Johnson apparently have simply ignored it and instead returned to the practice of paying interest on Federal Reserve notes. Today we continue to use Federal Reserve Notes, and the deficit is at an all-time high.

Editor's Opinion:
With regard to our present economic crisis alone, Treachery and Treason take on a much more dire meaning and the consequences for our not paying close attention to our being warned, in terms of heeding our patriotic leader's from the past such as JFK, that enemies from within are seeking to undermine our very way of life and are active in undermining our civl liberties as well as our monetary system. Not to mention our once democratic operation's of government.
It is with this in mind that beseech the politically active reading this blog, to carry the torch of reason and better judgement to those who may have contact with political representitives who may be in position to accomplish real change in our nation's direction both politically and morally.
Information similar to the article posted above is shocking and leaves me wondering about why accountability and even objective / investigative reporting isn't done anymore. In what is the most progressive and technically savvy time of mankind's history… we are as in the dark as ever. We are as under-represented and hog-tied as ever in our history and we are effectively at the mercy of an oligarchy, which has blatently lied and outwardly refuses to cooperate with our rules of law.
Isn't this the kind of thing Ron Paul lways warned us about? (Funny, not long ago, people thought he was a nut. Now, they turn to him for advice like the economic sage he is, because all Rep. Paul has been saying all these years has finally come to pass.) Have we reduced ourselves to being so terrified… that we don't bare to look at our dirty laundry or talk to bother anymore to confront what is looking like really bad leadership and dare I say treason or treachery? When was the last time you heard anyone convicted of treason or treachery?
No, now it's gonna be prosecutions of U.S. Citizens who are acting out (badly) in un-patriotic manners who will be thrown in jail for speaking their minds… Tick Tick Tick… Constitution's burning folks…
Mr. Obama, will your administration deny these realities? Will you pick up the torch you were ceremoniously handed by JFK and RFK's living legacies? You asked for these legacies to carry you to the office you now hold… will you now deny the weight and obligation, as well as the ominous responsibility to follow through with the Kennedy spirit you have channelled or the legacy of which that spirit holds to ultimatley finish the job that was started in the early 196o's? You have the energy and support of Rev Dr. Martin Luther King, JFK and RFK.
President Obama, please dismantle the Federal Reserve. The only way to stop this economic bleeding is to go right to the source. Take the creation of money away from the private, run-for-profit central bank and restore our Constitutionally-mandated financial system. Bring back the Greenbacks!
And while you're working on that massive to-do list, Mr. President, please prosecute Bush, Cheney and Rove for international war crimes, High Crimes & Misdemeanors!

In the beginning, all three of us went together. Two adults for one little toddler. I still couldn't handle it. Those were such dark days, seeing all of the other kids, some much younger than Audrey, doing so many things that she couldn't. She could talk, but wouldn't say her name during the welcome circle, hated being motored through the gesture songs, melted down when another kid cried, and was incapable of doing the basic gymnastic moves. She couldn't jump at all, and couldn't hold on, even for a nanosecond, to a trapeze bar. She couldn't wait her turn without making a scene. She was completely inflexible and always had to have the same swing or have a certain toy or piece of equipment all to herself. I cried all the way home after every session.
A few weeks ago, I started thinking about signing Audrey up for some kind of camp during her winter break. It so happened that Lauren was going to be an aid for another one of her charges (yes, she has the nerve to have others) at a camp that My Gym was running. I wasn't feeling very creative, so decided to just cop the other mom's idea and sign Audrey up. I tried to go enroll her during what I thought would be a down time, but, wouldn't you know it, a toddler class was just starting. They started singing that welcome song and it was like I was hearing the choppers back in Nam. I had the most visceral reaction I've ever experienced. I'm not exaggerating when I say that I felt physical pain upon hearing that song. I could not get out of there fast enough.
Lauren accompanied Audrey to the camp three days this week. I very rarely brag about Audrey on this blog, so if you will allow me...per Lauren's daily report, Audrey:
- Introduced herself every morning without any prompting
- Participated in games, including one where she had to go to the center of the circle, pretend to be her favorite animal, and confirm to the others if they guessed right (she was a doggy, take that kitties!).
- Waited her turn, counting down the allotted time that the person in front of her was allowed.
- Did soooo much more gross motor-wise, including jumping (she basically has never stopped once she figured out how), swinging from trapeze, and holding on to a zip-line.
- Never cried or had any behaviors.

Project Summary
For more information, visit our project website.
This inquiry is designed to improve understanding of resilience in urban socio-ecological systems, with the over-arching question: How do human governance and biophysical systems respond interactively to both press and pulse disturbances in urban socio-ecological systems? We focus our research on a pair of cities, Portland, Oregon and Vancouver, Washington, two anchors in a single metropolitan area that have developed over the past 30 years under contrasting policy regimes at the state, regional and local levels. Research projects and cross-cutting, unifying activities are guided by the following questions:
- How do differences in local and state levels of governance and policy affect the resilience of both social and ecological landscapes?
- How do alternative land use planning strategies affect provision of ecosystem services in response to different disturbance factors?
- How effectively do the processes and outcomes of monitoring ecosystem services provide a usable feedback loop in urban socio-ecological systems?
Our research team spans three universities, as well as local and federal agencies, with strengths both in urban ecosystem research and in the broader regional environmental context, allowing us both to intensively study within the urban areas of interest as well as to integrate our results regionally with the HJ Andrews LTER and the Wind River Experimental Forest NEON.
Our study design addresses our research questions through four focused research projects and two project-wide unifying activities. The first research project examines governance effects on the spatial pattern and timing of development at the regional scale. This research provides an integrative framework for all studies, and will draw on existing data and previously-tested empirical modeling approaches to describe, project, and map development rates and patterns in the region as influenced by distinctly different land use policy regimes. The second project examines relationships among disturbances resulting from development, and urban water quality. Projects three (riparian vegetation changes) and four (green infrastructure) both focus on the exchange and use of information and interactions among social actors at the city and neighborhood scale. Complementing these research projects are two cross-cutting and unifying activities that address specific aspects of the human experience in perceiving and managing urban ecosystem resources. The first activity examines civic ecology and information for decision making activity. This investigation will apply a common research framework to all four research projects (above) to study how ecological information feeds back into social decision-making processes. The second activity is designed to engage 6th-12th grade teachers and their students in the Portland/Vancouver region in select urban environmental projects having both an ecological and a public purpose. The project will create and support networks of teachers, youth and organizations conducting socio-ecological research and to develop meaningful measures of how teacher and student involvement in socio-ecological projects contributes to urban resilience.
The integrated, multidisciplinary nature of our project maximizes opportunities to advance understanding of coupled natural and human systems. We feature a novel, micro-level and meso-level focus on the connections among human perceptions, citizen engagement, and ecosystem services in developing urban resilience, leading to insights about how human systems adapt to disturbance. Additionally, the study area, a metropolitan region containing cities with contrasting policy and governance systems whose land use effects have played out vividly through time, is particularly well suited for analysis and comparison of complex interactions between social and ecological systems. Finally, inclusion of external forces of population growth and climate change while simultaneously examining internal community adaptations will help identify unanticipated feedback loops or failures, and increase knowledge of how changes in boundary conditions can shift system behavior.
Working across jurisdictional, disciplinary, institutional and geographic boundaries will create a network of learners and associated synergies as we collaborate to understand the complex systems that are urban areas. Our approach provides both specific and general examples of how interactions within complex urban socio-ecological systems manifest through time. Besides these nodes of theory development, we foresee findings being put in place both experimentally and institutionally by cities and metropolitan agencies interested in building on the synergies to be found in integrative approaches to management. Our results should help to productively break down past divisions between social and ecological thinking and point the way toward an improved understanding and application of factors controlling how human governance affects socio-ecological resilience in urban areas.

Konata definately my favorite, (of all time as well), easiest decision ever--nothing about her i can find that i dont like
Tsukasa my second favorite (some of the weird stuff she says, like the "extended family bowl" thing in the first(?) ep

Normally I'd go for Konata, but since, I'm someone like Konata (sorry if I keep saying this, it's the shortest way to say that, I'm THAT type of person >.<) I voted for Kagami.
I'm like KAGAMI ALL THE WAY, her tsundere-likeness is so cute that I can't resist it every time she gets mad turns me on kidding. XD So yes, I just like tsundere characters, like Louise from zero no tsukaima or Shana from Shakugan no Shana, or anything/something like that. =D

First, Konata is a unique character, like Haruhi... she is full of win, period.
BUT, my favorite is Kagami-Sama because she is the cutest and adorable tsundere of all, being a character with dozens of "looks like", she is the No1. of all...

I just watched the entire series in three days! I thought I wouldn't like the series because the characters seemed a bit "Pedo" and I definitely didn't think I'd feel strongly about any of the characters. Well, I ended up really enjoying the series .
When I first watched the series I didn't favor any of them, half way through the series, I thought that I'd never favor any of them(Don't get me wrong, I had fun watching the series up until that point, I just didn't get attached to any of the characters.) But towards the end, I was actually moved from the last few episodes(Didn't think that'd happen after watching all those episodes focused solely on discussions about food, gaming, and the small things in life.)
I found myself liking Kagami a lot. She won me over with her practical attitude in real life situations, her empathy in regards to her friends, her humour in response to Konata's Otakuness and Tsukasa's laziness, and how she handled herself in some serious scenes. E.G. How she reacted to her sister getting angry when it wasn't her fault, and when she got that note on the trip. I admire the way she handled her sister without going over the top, even though you could tell she wanted to. And the scene with her waiting, I kind of just held my breath, it was a really good scene, and it helped me realize Kagami's depth as a character. I also find her cute now(Help!, I've become a Pedo!)
I hope we get to see the other characters be put in similar situations(In the manga maybe?). But after watching the anime, I'm seriously Kagami-biased, to me, Kagami-Sama stole the show.

Wannabe Konata Izumi
Still true to the one and only Konata. Her personality and mannerisms are what kept the show alive all throughout, but I'm glad to say that this feature isn't what makes Lucky Star enjoyable. Kagami is also firm in 2nd place because of her character development throughout the series. It used to be that she needs Konata in order to show herself, but there are some pretty awesome moments without her (eg. Comiket scene, finding out she isn't in the same class, confession scene). Though I don't see them as a yuri couple, I see them as a very good, dynamic pair.
Konata was and still is full of win, though due to Kagami's character development and the introduction of Yutaka's class, you see less of her.

When will this winter be over? That's the popular question after this long, hard winter.
Maybe you can cheer up by thinking of all of the fun you can have at this summer's 159th annual Bureau County Fair. After all, it is only 26 short weeks away! We are looking forward to a hot and dry week.
The fair board recently attended the Illinois State Fair Association meetings in Springfield. There, they worked with the promoters for the different events that we will have during the fair like the tractor pull and concert. Each year it is a challenge to find new and unique entertainment for the fair. Some fairs keep the same shows year after year, but the Bureau County Fair prides themselves on offering new shows every year.
This summer everyone in the whole family will enjoy Magic Matt's Family Fun show, which will be held three times daily. He will be doing strolling magic and balloon animal art. Also entertaining will be Galaxy Girl, performing daring acrobatics at 100 plus feet in the air without a safety harness.
A very exciting new event has been added to fair week. The Latting Rodeo Co. will present a bull riding competition. They are bringing 35 bulls for the cowboys to try and make their eight-second rides. The events the families always enjoy like the demolition derby, tractor pulls, Lil' Wrangler Rodeo and hospitality tent and beer garden music will be back on the schedule for 2014. The Bureau County Fair will release their exciting concert news on March 1, so you will have to wait just a little while longer to hear who will be playing the fair this summer.
If you need to get out of the house, there are still a lot of fun events coming up at the fairgrounds. There are just a few tickets remaining for the fair fundraiser "Night at the Races" on March 1. There will be lots of great prizes and fun watching the horse races.
There will be another fundraiser for the fair on March 22. The fair is hosting a Euchre tournament with play starting at 6 p.m. The cost is $20 per couple, and you must be 18 to participate. There will be cash prizes. Those wishing to preregister should contact Tracy Diehl at 309-507-2596 or email her at firstname.lastname@example.com. Anyone preregistering will receive one free raffle ticket per participant. Entry fees will be taken the day of the tournament. Do not send money now! There will be a concession stand with food, beer and soda plus raffles and a 50/50 drawing. The funds raised will be put toward grandstand repairs at the fairgrounds.
The new digital sign board that funds were raised for last year will be installed when the weather straightens out this spring.
The huge winter garage sale returns on March 8 and March 9 with doors opening at 8 a.m. Admission and parking are free. A donation of a canned food item or paper products for the local food pantry will be collected at the sale. A special sale table will be set up with items donated for sale by the fair board members to assist the Headley family with their medical bills. The Headleys have both worked at the fairgrounds for several years. If you would like to sell at the garage sale or donate an item to be sold for the fundraiser, call Nancy at 815-303-2905. Check out our web page at www.bureaucountyfair.com for additional information.
The Sauk Trail Gun Collectors show and sale will be March 29 and 30, with the doors opening at 8:30 a.m. both mornings. This will be the last gun show until fall, so come out and stock up on whatever you need for your hunting needs.
The fair is looking for a superintendant to run the open horse show on Sunday during the fair. If you would be interested in helping out, please leave a message at the office — 815-875-2905.
Thanks to our Bureau County Fair Queen Ashley. She did an amazing job at the Illinois State Fair Queen Pageant in January. We are very proud of her and how well she represented Bureau County.
Mark your calendars now for the 159th annual Bureau County Fair which will be held on Aug. 20-24. There's going to be fun for the whole family – and there won't be any snow there, except for in the snow cones.
Kathy Costerisan is a representative for the Bureau County Fairgrounds.

Debby Threat To Louisiana Lessens
(KPEL) -- The National Hurricane Center has adjusted the forecast track for Tropical Storm Debby, providing residents in southern Louisiana with some relief.
Forecasters now predict Debby will track to the north over the next couple days, eventually making landfall along the Florida panhandle. The latest update had the storm positioned about 205 miles east-southeast of the mouth of the Mississippi River, with maximum sustained winds of 60 miles per hour.
Earlier today, Gov. Bobby Jindal declared a state of emergency as forecast tracks at the time had Debby making landfall in Louisiana, slowly tracking west across the southern portion of the state.
State Police held a command briefing in Baton Rouge this afternoon to discuss the storm. Though Debby does not for the time being present an immediate threat to Louisiana, troopers still suggest making a personal and/or family plan by putting together the following items:
· Flashlight
· Extra batteries in needed/various sizes

Team Prenda Not Only Still Shaking Down People, But Also Threatening To Tell Their Neighbors About Porn Habits
from the they-just-don't-quit dept
Team Prenda appears to now be using that to their advantage:
The first step in this process is to conduct what is referred to as a 'pre-complaint investigation.' The purpose of this step is to gather evidence about who used your Internet account to steal from our client. The list of possible suspects includes you, members of your household, your neighbors (if you maintain an open wi-fi connection) and anyone who might have visited your house. In the coming days we will contact these individuals to investigate whether they have any knowledge of the acts described in my client's prior letter.The short form of this is: "pay up, or we contact your family, friends and neighbors to tell them you've been downloading freaky porn -- whether or not it's true."
I can't imagine that this is going to end well for Duffy, Steele and Hansmeier, no matter how self-assured they like to appear. At best, this is an attempt to squeeze a bit more money out of this whole process before it's completely shut down, but given that the walls are almost certainly closing in on them, continuing to operate in this manner (and even stepping it up in some ways) isn't going to look good to those who are now investigating the matter.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - MIT's water polo team captured its second title of the weekend on Sunday afternoon by virtue of a 12-10 win over Division II Mercyhurst College in the Collegiate Water Polo Association (CWPA) Small College Championship game. Less than 24 hours earlier, the Engineers defeated Washington and Jefferson College to claim the CWPA Division III Eastern Championship.
The entire tournament was hosted by MIT in the Zesiger Center Pool.
Sophomore Devin Lewis, who led the Cardinal and Gray with 14 goals over the course of the weekend, was named the Division III Tournament Most Valuable Player. Sophomore goalkeeper Nick Souza and senior Morgan Laidlaw earned First Team accolades, while teammates Mike Smith-Bronstein and John Preis were named to the Second Team.
Sunday afternoon's meeting with Mercyhurst was a tense battle from start to finish. A defensive-minded first half from both sides saw MIT take a 4-2 lead into the break, but a three-goal outburst to open the third quarter stretched Tech's advantage to 7-2, as the Engineers threatened to bust the game open. However, the Lakers stormed back with five unanswered goals to even the score at 7-7 heading into the final period. The teams traded goals to begin the fourth, but a Brian Gardiner man-advantage strike sparked a three-goal run that put MIT up, 12-9. Mercyhurst cut the lead to 12-10 by converting a penalty throw with 30 seconds remaining, but the Engineers subsequently ran out the final half-minute to seal the title.
Rookie Preis bagged five goals to push his team-leading total to 68, while the Los Angeles, Calif., native also drew two ejections. Lewis added three tallies, while Smith-Bronstein had a remarkable game, notching three goals, three steals and three assists.
Junior Palmer Rosemond came up big once again on the defensive end of the pool for the Engineers, making five steals while also contributing two assists. Mark Artz also pitched in with a pair of helpers, while Gardiner added a steal and an assist to his goal.
MIT will return to action next weekend when it will host the CWPA Northern Division Championships, on Saturday, Nov. 3 and Sunday, Nov. 4.

Spence White and his wife Niki were supposed to spend the evening of Oct. 19 behind the counter of Rita's serving up ice cream and other treats to students as part of a fundraiser.
Plans have changed.
Now the couple will be the guests of Gov. Terry McAuliffe at the Governor's Mansion for a banquet in which Virginia's Teacher of the Year will be named.
The Bedford County School Board took another step toward making a new middle school in the Liberty zone a reality.
Thursday night, the school board voted unanimously to hire Moseley Architects to design the new middle school and the competitive gym at Liberty High School.
"I am very confident they will do an outstanding job on this project," commented School Board Chairman Gary Hostutler.
Jennifer Whitt always loved to teach.
So it is natural when she decided to get back into the work force after raising her children she would return to the education field. Last September she launched her tutoring business, Club Z!, based in Forest.
The Bedford County School Board will soon be ready to hire an architectural firm to design the new middle school and the competition gym for Liberty High School.
The number of firms applying for the job has been whittled down to the final four, which a committee from the school board will interview Thursday. A company will be presented to the entire school board next month for final approval.
The new App for the school district is available for both android phone and iPhones. Key features include providing at-your-fingertips access to lunch menus, calendar events and the latest news for both the school and the district.
Liberty High School reached the half-century mark this year and its first graduating class, the class of 1965, is holding its 50th reunion next month.
For members of this class, their senior year was the only year they attended Liberty and one group of them actually wear the class ring of a different high school. The students who came from New London Academy received their class rings during their junior year, and these were New London Academy rings.
School starts on Aug. 17 and big yellow buses will be traveling the streets and roads of Bedford County on their mission to take students to and from school safely.
The children's safety not only depends on the bus driver's skill and judgment, it also depends on people obeying state law when they see a school bus stopped with its red lights flashing and its stop sign extended.
Summer is almost history and history is almost ready to be taught once again.
On Monday, Bedford County Public Schools will be back in session.
"We have a lot of leadership changes," Dr. Douglas Schuch.
The most visible of these changes will come in school offices in the form of new principals and assistant principals.
The Bedford County School Board got some good news at its Thursday night meeting.
According to Randy Hagler, the school division's chief financial officer, the school division ended the last fiscal year $503,000 in the black. Hagler said this came about because the school division received $310,000 more in revenue than anticipated, while expenditures were $193,000 below what was budgeted. Hagler said the supervisors will be asked to re-appropriate this money to the school division's maintenance fund.
The Bedford Central Library's last Wacky Wednesday, a part of the library's summer reading program, soared to new heights last week. The children got to design, build and launch their own rockets.
"We put a little science with our art today," said Lauren Harper, the youth services librarian.

text: well, if you lean to the left I would go with USF. USD is a very conservative school and you may feel out of place. You also need to consider the fact that SD is a relatively small market compared to SF. Also, with UCLA, USC, Pepperdine, Loyola,Southwestern, and Chapman not to far north of SD leaves plenty of competition for jobs in the region. Just because USD is the biggest fish in SD, its not dominate over UCLA, USC, Pepperdine and, to a lesser extent, Loyola. Thats not to say you wont have the same problem in SF, but at least you will be in the company of fellow liberals and not surrounded by conservatives.Just my two cents.

Fourth generation owners Dee Dee Eagle (Eagle Family Candy Co.) and Jennifer Williams (Weiland's Market), are joining forces.
Dee Dee Eagle always enjoyed the idea of being the fourth generation to run the family business.
Jennifer Williams, not so much; she spent 20 years in corporate communications and marketing before returning to the enterprise her great-grandfather started.
The two women now find themselves the owners, respectively, of Eagle Family Candy Co., 4590 N. High St., and Weiland's Market, 3600 Indianola Ave.
In fact, at the suggestion of state Sen. Jim Hughes (R-Clintonville), the two recently entered into a business arrangement for Weiland's to carry some of the candy company's products.
"I love the idea of two Clintonville businesses working together and kind of joining forces," said Williams, whose great-grandfather and grandfather owned Williams Market.
Her father worked with George Weiland to open the business that now bears the latter's name.
Eagle's great-grandfather, George H. Eagle, started a chocolate business on West Fifth Avenue in 1919. Her grandfather opened the current location in 1946 and her father took over in 1986.
Eagle said she dropped off some samples at Weiland's on a Friday afternoon several weeks ago.
"Within, like, five minutes, Jennifer had contacted me and said she'd love to do business and she'd love to sell our candy," Eagle recalled.
"I think it's awesome. I think it just speaks volumes. Weiland's started next door to our original location here. It's just kind of neat, the history of us being in the community for so long."
Williams called her offer "an absolute no-brainer."
"Part of it was, 'Why didn't I think of that before?' I grew up with Eagle candy, too, and I think it's going to help them because they're such a tiny store," she said. "Being here is going to give them better exposure for people who've never heard of them or don't know what goes on in that small store. I'm happy to do that."
Eagle and her husband, James Peck, became owners of what had been John Eagle Candies in August 2012, after her mother fell ill.
"My dad was closing, so my husband and I stepped in and kind of rebranded," she said.
Last June, James Peck left an 11-year career with Anheuser-Busch to help Eagle run the family operation into which he had married.
"I've always wanted to take it over," Eagle added. "I saw this in my future. The title 'fourth-generation chocolatier' always appealed to me."
The Worthington resident said the Eagle Family Candy Co.'s chocolate still is made from a secret recipe handed down by her great-grandfather, and that a piece of equipment in the store dates to 1914.
"We haven't changed any of our recipes," she said. "We haven't added anything at all.
"I think everyone likes chocolate. It never gets old. Our product pretty much speaks for itself.
"Our customer base has been so loyal. It's like a tradition, handed down from generation to generation," Eagle said.
"We're looking to grow and expand so we have the fifth, sixth, seventh generations down the road."
Williams wasn't sure she wanted to be in the grocery business, but she said handling communications and marketing for a major banking firm had grown old.
"I knew that I would be happy being out of corporate America," she said. "The thing that makes me the happiest is the personal contact with our customers -- having that personal relationship with them and talking to people who went to high school with my dad, people I went to high school with and people I used to baby-sit.
"The cool thing about being Weiland's is the sense of community and tradition and history, and being part of that."

This was originally posted over at Suture for a Living on January 9, 2009.
My winter block of the "four seasons" quilt is a Dresden plate block. The center is a cross-stitch piece I had done with no intended use. The blue is silk that was left over from the "blue nude" quilt I had done.
The Dresden plate quilt pattern was very popular in the 1920's and 30's. It is also know by names such as Grandmother's sunburst, sunflower, and friendship ring. There are usually 12 or more "petals" that are sewn together, radiating from a central circle, and then appliqued onto a block of fabric. The segments may be smooth at the outer edge of the circle or shaped into arcs or points, or a combination.
History of the Dresden Plate Block (for the full history and pictures go to the source article)
But there is indeed a much earlier example that used this configuration in the center of a wool, medallion style quilt. In fact this amazing antique is the earliest surviving American made pieced medallion quilt. It is inscribed, "ANNA TUELS HER BEDQUILT GIVEN TO HER BY HER MOTHER IN THE YEAR AU 23. 1785". 2 To the right is an illustration of the medallion center of Anna Tules quilt and below is a link a photograph of it. The center Dresden Plate style motif is surrounded by hourglass and heart blocks and a wide beautifully quilted border.
Here is the block quilted. You can still see some of my "blue" washable marks.

Asymmetric jurisdiction clauses also known as one-sided or `for the benefit' clauses are common in international financial services agreements, but their validity under EU law has been questioned in recent years by the French Supreme Court. The English High Court has now confirmed their validity and, in particular, that they are capable of benefiting from the protection given to all exclusive clauses by new provisions in the Brussels Regulation Recast EU 1215/2015 (Brussels Recast). This decision is reassuring for banks and other financial institutions, although courts in other EU Member States may side with the French rather than English courts on the issue, and the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) has yet to consider it. The defendants are seeking the Court of Appeal's permission to appeal the High Court decision.
Asymmetric jurisdiction clauses ordinarily require a borrower or guarantor to bring proceedings in a specified jurisdiction whilst allowing the lender to bring proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction. Financial institutions have historically included these clauses in finance documentation to ensure that they retain control over where they are sued, whilst retaining the freedom to sue a borrower or guarantor wherever its assets are located.
The status of asymmetric jurisdiction clauses in Europe and elsewhere has been uncertain since the decision of the French Supreme Court (Court de Cassation) in 2012 in Mme X v Socit Banque Priv Edmond de Rothschild, in which it was held that asymmetric jurisdiction clauses may be invalid under EU as well as French national law, depending on how they are drafted. More recently, the French Supreme Court has issued further decisions that qualify that view, but doubts as to the validity of asymmetric clauses persist.
Even if such clauses are valid under EU law, it is not obvious that they enjoy the special protection afforded by Brussels Recast to exclusive jurisdiction clauses in general. The basic lis pendens rule is that jurisdiction issues should be decided by the court first seised of a matter while other courts stay proceedings pending the first court's decision (Articles 29 and 30). However, Article 31(2) creates an exception where exclusive clauses are concerned, allowing the chosen court to decide these questions itself, regardless of when it was seised. This new exception has been widely welcomed because it limits the scope for delaying tactics, in particular the `Italian torpedo': pre-emptive proceedings commenced in an EU Member State where the wheels of justice are known to turn slowly and/or jurisdiction questions are decided at the end rather than the beginning of litigation.
In Commerzbank Aktiengesellschaft v Pauline Shipping and Liquimar Tankers 2017 EWHC 161 (Comm) (Commerzbank), Pauline was the borrower under a loan agreement with Commerzbank for the construction of a vessel. Liquimar was the guarantor of that loan and other loans made under separate loan agreements for the construction of other vessels. The loan agreements and guarantee agreements contained asymmetric jurisdiction clauses obliging Pauline and Liquimar to bring proceedings in the English courts, but allowing Commerzbank to commence proceedings in any other court of competent jurisdiction.
The loans went into default and, following discussions, Commerzbank notified Liquimar of its intention to commence proceedings in England. Liquimar subsequently issued proceedings in Greece in June 2015 seeking a declaration of non-liability, and Liquimar and Pauline together commenced additional proceedings in December 2015, also in Greece. In May 2016 Commerzbank commenced proceedings in England seeking declarations and damages in respect of the loan agreements and guarantees.
Commerzbank argued in England that the asymmetric jurisdiction clauses were exclusive jurisdiction clauses for the purposes of Article 31 of Brussels Recast, whereas Liquimar and Pauline sought to set aside or stay the English proceedings on lis pendens grounds, arguing that the Greek court should decide jurisdiction questions as it was the court first seised of the matter, and that the asymmetric jurisdiction clause was at best irrelevant and possibly invalid under the Regulation.
Mr Justice Cranston rejected this argument, holding that asymmetric jurisdiction clauses are valid and may be exclusive for the purpose of Article 31, even where they restrict only one party. He did not see the need to follow Mme X v Socit Banque Priv Edmond de Rothschild, stressing instead that an autonomous approach was required when interpreting Brussels Recast's provisions.
The judge noted that the declared aims of Brussels Recast supported his analysis. Recital 19 of Brussels Recast states that the autonomy of the parties should be respected subject to limited exceptions. In this case the parties had agreed that Liquimar and Pauline were only entitled to sue under the agreements in the English courts. The specific purpose of Article 31 was to enhance the effectiveness of exclusive jurisdiction clauses and neutralise Italian torpedoes (Recital 22). To treat all asymmetric clauses in effect as non-exclusive jurisdiction clauses would both undermine the agreement reached by parties and frustrate the policy objectives set out in the Recitals.
The decision of the Commercial Court in Commerzbank is not unexpected, and does not carry the weight of a Court of Appeal or Supreme Court decision, but it is welcome nonetheless. However, clarity can ultimately be provided only by the CJEU, if and when it is asked to decide the issue. By then the UK may have left the EU, of course, and both asymmetric and regular exclusive jurisdiction agreements in favour of English courts could have limited force in the remaining EU Member States if they are regarded then as agreements favouring courts of `third states' and therefore unsupported by EU law.
Whether they will in fact have that status depends on the form that Brexit takes. The UK may remain subject to a version of the EU rules by re-joining the 2007 Lugano Convention, for example something it can theoretically do whether or not it joins the European Free Trade Association. Unfortunately, the 2005 Hague Convention on Choice of Court Agreements, containing the new global regime that sometimes overrides EU law in this area, is unlikely to be of assistance since it does not appear to support asymmetric jurisdiction agreements in the normal course of events (see Articles 3(a) and 22 and paragraph 32 of the accompanying Explanatory Report). Financial institutions should therefore consider now whether asymmetric jurisdiction agreements serve their interests in the longer term, however the issues discussed in Commerzbank are finally resolved.

2017 Melges 24 NorAm Championship (North Americans), July 19-22 Cascade Locks, Oregon
3 June 2017
Article by Brian Hutchinson, Melges 24 USA-201 - In less than two months, the Melges 24 class will be rolling into Cascade Locks, Oregon for Stage 2 of the NorAm Tour- the 2017 MELGES24 NorAm Championship (the North Americans).
The breathtaking scenery, and warm solid breeze of the Columbia River Gorge will cause a transformation to most. For at least 4 days people will shift to an exhilarating, yet simpler existence. Half of the fleet will choose to camp so they can take this unearthly garden all in, full-time.
Just a couple-hundred meter sail from the dock is the race course world- renowned for its elevator-assisted beats followed by screaming 24-knot runs. The wind and water will be warm, so we'll not need much beyond a pair of shorts, food and water and a PFD. Following each epic day of sailing teams will return to the Cascade Locks Marine Park for cold refreshments, maybe some locally caught salmon and live accoustic music.
The only complication will come at the end of the week when we decide to sell the house and move everything to the Gorge.

... once in a very great while, that is. We had to be up in Ojai for an appointment this morning and decided to check out the Rose Valley waterfall and the snow on Nordoff Ridge. Followed a set of bobcat tracks partway up the chip-seal road (part of the C2M course). There was so much snow & rain that the waterfall was actually falling! With a bit more snow on the ridge, I could get out the cross country skis. ??
On a more somber note, my heart goes out to the family of Meredith Emerson, the young woman who went missing near the southern terminus of the Appalachian Trail in North Georgia on New Years Day. She was a lover of animals, a beautiful woman only 24 years of age who loved to hike with her black lab, whose life was tragically cut short by a total nutcase. The family is asking those who wish to honor Meredith do so by contributing to their local animal shelters.

Each year we celebrate Black History Month during the month of February in both the United States and Canada. An important group of veterans who fought in the Second World War are the Tuskegee Airmen. Not only were they fighting the German Nazis, they were also fighting prejudice in their own homeland.
After being rejected for air service during World War I, groups of young African Americans with an interest in becoming pilots fought for the opportunity during the Second World War. African American college graduates were allowed to train at Tuskegee and these men then comprised the Tuskegee Airmen.
After receiving encouragement from the first lady, Eleanor Roosevelt, they were sent overseas earning an impressive combat record. This was a huge step for African Americans in the fight for civil rights and to show other African American men and women that anything was possible for them. Three of the Tuskegee Airmen Pilots even went on to become generals in the United States Army.

WASHINGTON — California's congressional delegation has entered the fierce jockeying among states to land a Boeing Co. manufacturing plant. But even with the promise of jobs, it can be tough to unify the fractured group of lawmakers.
Rep. Alan Lowenthal (D-Long Beach) gathered the signatures of most but not all of the state's 53 House members for a letter urging the Chicago-based aerospace company to choose Long Beach for production of its next-generation 777X airliner.
The California lawmakers cited, among other things, the state's "rich history" of aerospace manufacturing and the existing assembly plant and workforce in Long Beach.
Lowenthal went door to door to congressional offices and buttonholed colleagues on the House floor to gather the signatures of a diverse, bipartisan group ranging from liberal Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters of Los Angeles to Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, a conservative Republican from Costa Mesa.
But while the entire, albeit smaller, Alabama and Washington state delegations signed letters to Boeing pitching their states, six California lawmakers — including some of the state's most influential members of Congress — did not.
"California is going to have to substantially reduce its tax and regulatory burdens before a letter like that is going to have any credibility," said Rep. Tom McClintock (R-Elk Grove), one of those who did not sign the state's letter.
A spokesman for Rep. John Campbell (R-Irvine), who also did not sign, said the congressman believes it is "not the business of Congress to tell a private company where they can best operate at the lowest cost."
The effort showed how tough it can be to bring together the delegation — even for a meeting.
The state's Democrats and Republicans last held a formal gathering about 10 months ago, although Lowenthal and Rep. Jeff Denham (R-Turlock) last month drew about 15 to 20 members of the delegation to a Capitol Hill restaurant in an effort to promote bipartisan cooperation to advance California interests.
Lowenthal said that 47 signatures is a "good number," given the size and diversity of the delegation.
"I really believe it's good to have our delegation speaking out because I think we have a shot," he said in an interview.
Lowenthal said he did not ask House Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy (R-Bakersfield) and Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-San Francisco) to sign the letter, saying it could put the leaders in a tough position with lawmakers from other states competing for the production facility.
Spokesmen for Pelosi and
House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Vista), who also did not sign the letter, supports the effort to bring production to California, as does McKeon, their spokesmen said.
Efforts to locate the plant in Long Beach come after Boeing's announcement that it would be closing its C-17 Globemaster III cargo jet plant there in 2015.
The new Boeing work could last through the 2020s, creating thousands of manufacturing, support and supplier jobs, according to Lowenthal.
California Sens. Barbara Boxer and Dianne Feinstein, both Democrats, sent a letter to James McNerney, Boeing's chairman and chief executive, urging him to pick Long Beach.
"One needs to look no further than the success of the C-17 manufacturing program, which Long Beach and the broader Southern California community have proudly supported for more than two decades," they wrote.

New writer Jim Starlin calls it a 'revamp of a revamp'
Source: Newsarama
Starting with issue #19 Jim Starlin takes over as Writer and Yvel Guiceht takes over as Penciller. And plenty will be changing.
Starlin remains coy about the specifics for now as he doesn't want to spoil anything yet but he does give a few teases on what readers can look forward to.
Also coming up:
- Stormwatch is a clandestine outfit, a top-secret organization. Its connection to the rest of the new DC Universe was tenuous and minimal, at best, with the old Stormwatch.
- Stormwatch #19 makes those connections even less relevant as something happens to the DC Universe in this issue that changes Stormwatch and everything else. But these alterations in reality are localized and chiefly affect Stormwatch and those directly connected to Stormwatch.It's complicated and will probably take a dozen issues or so to thoroughly sort out the changes taking place.
- "The Weird " will be a new character based on a character that Starlin and Bernie Wrightson created for DC years ago. He's a revamp. His origin will be very similar to the old Weird's but also subtly different. His role in Stormwatch will be a marked departure in what the character is all about.
- Another new character, Jenny Soul, is a new version of Jenny Sparks/Quantum. She's the odd man/teenage girl out in this group of very unconventional and flawed characters. Big plans for her.
- Apollo, Midnighter and the Engineer are basically what the reader already knows, only how they got to where they are has changed.
- The team is headed up by a new mystery character called Storm Control. He's assisted in this work by an alien code-named The Forecaster and a new and more complex version of Hellstrike, who's the Away Team's leader.
Stormwatch #19 goes on sale April 3, 2013

by Chesscub » Tue Feb 12, 2013 12:29 pmI was kind of enjoying Peter Milligan's take on the characters. Keeping them on the fringe and investigating the weird.
Glad they're updating Jenny Quantum. She was the one that I didn't care for.
by superfictious » Tue Feb 12, 2013 12:34 pmI think Stormwatch has a place in the DCU and I hope Starlin figures it out. Since they're playing with realities already, make them the crisis-hopping badasses of the 52 or something trippy like that..
by Garofani Spruzzo » Tue Feb 12, 2013 2:00 pmThat sounds alternately terrible!
by fieldy snuts » Tue Feb 12, 2013 5:20 pmWow Starlin is still determined to ram his garbage character The Weird down our throats after it failed for years just prior to the reboot.
Starlin is as washed up as Claremont. Everything he's done for DC since he returned is was horrific and about as bad as Infinity Crusade and Abyss.
by PinkDaddy » Tue Feb 12, 2013 9:27 pmNo mention of Jack Hawksmoor.
I had hoped to see Hawksmoor get an opportunity to do more but with coming changes I expect there will be casualties.
I'm gonna be so bummed if he dies....

Adding Workstation Nodes to a Windows HPC Cluster
Applies To: Microsoft HPC Pack 2012, Microsoft HPC Pack 2012 R2
With Microsoft® HPC Pack, you can add workstation computers that are running the Windows operating system to your high performance computing (HPC) cluster. These computers are added as workstation nodes, and you can use them to run cluster jobs. Workstation nodes added to an HPC cluster are also referred to as cycle harvesting computers.
In a cluster that is running at least HPC Pack 2008 R2 with Service Pack 3 (SP3), you can also add unmanaged servers that run the Windows Server operating system as cycle harvesting computers. These are server computers such as file servers that run network workloads but are not dedicated nodes in your HPC cluster. For more information and considerations for using unmanaged server computers for running cluster jobs, see Adding Unmanaged Servers to a Windows HPC Cluster.
Because workstation nodes are not dedicated cluster computers, they can be used for other tasks. They can automatically become available to run cluster jobs according to a weekly availability policy that you configure (for example, every night on weekdays and all day on weekends), or they can be brought online manually, depending on the configuration that you choose. If your cluster is running at least HPC Pack 2008 R2 with Service Pack 1 (SP1), you can also configure user activity detection settings on the workstation nodes to help ensure that the cluster jobs do not interrupt other processes on the workstations.
This guide provides step-by-step procedures for adding workstation nodes to your HPC cluster.

This guide contains the following sections:
Requirements for Adding Workstation Nodes with Microsoft HPC Pack

Living in Denial?

"I think you are a self-destructive alcoholic."
Playing Favorites

Key events in Egypt's uprising and unrest
CAIRO (AP) — Security forces and armed men clashed with supporters of Egypt's ousted president early Saturday, killing at least 65 people in mayhem that underscored an increasingly heavy hand against protests demanding Mohammed Morsi's return to office.
Here are some key events from more than two years of turmoil and transition in Egypt:
Jan. 25-Feb. 11, 2011 — Egyptians stage nationwide demonstrations against the rule of President Hosni Mubarak. Hundreds of protesters are killed as Mubarak and his allies try to crush the uprising.
Feb. 11 — Mubarak steps down and turns power over to the military. The military dissolves parliament and suspends the constitution, meeting two key demands of protesters.
Nov. 28, 2011-Feb 15, 2012 — Egypt holds multistage, weekslong parliamentary elections. In the lawmaking lower house, the Muslim Brotherhood wins nearly half the seats, and ultraconservative Salafis take another quarter. The remainder goes to liberal, independent and secular politicians. In the largely powerless upper house, Islamists take nearly 90 percent of the seats.
May 23-24, 2012 — The first round of voting in presidential elections has a field of 13 candidates. The Brotherhood's Mohammed Morsi and Ahmed Shafiq, the last prime minister under Mubarak, emerge as the top two finishers, to face each other in a runoff.
June 14 — The Supreme Constitutional Court orders the dissolving of the lower house of parliament.
June 16-17 — Egyptians vote in the presidential runoff between Morsi and Shafiq. Morsi wins with 51.7 percent of the vote.
June 30 — Morsi takes his oath of office.
Nov. 19 — Members of liberal parties and representatives of Egypt's churches withdraw from the 100-member assembly writing the constitution, protesting attempts by Islamists to impose their will.
Nov. 22 — Morsi unilaterally decrees greater powers for himself, giving his decisions immunity from judicial review and barring the courts from dissolving the constituent assembly and the upper house of parliament. The move sparks days of protests.
Nov. 30 —Islamists in the constituent assembly rush to complete the draft of the constitution. Morsi sets a Dec. 15 date for a referendum.
Dec. 4 — More than 100,000 protesters march on the presidential palace, demanding the cancellation of the referendum and the writing of a new constitution. The next day, Islamists attack an anti-Morsi sit-in, sparking street battles that leave at least 10 dead.
Dec. 15, Dec. 22 — In the two-round referendum, Egyptians approve the constitution, with 63.8 percent voting in favor. Turnout is low.
Jan. 25, 2013 — Hundreds of thousands hold protests against Morsi on the 2-year anniversary of the start of the revolt against Mubarak, and clashes erupt in many places.
Feb.-March 2013 — Protests rage in Port Said and other cities for weeks, with dozens more dying in clashes.
April 7 — A Muslim mob attacks the main cathedral of the Coptic Orthodox Church as Christians hold a funeral and protest there over four Christians killed in sectarian violence the day before. Pope Tawadros II publicly blames Morsi for failing to protect the building.
June 23 — A mob beats to death four Egyptian Shiites in a village on the outskirts of Cairo.
June 30 — Millions of Egyptians demonstrate, calling for Morsi to step down. Eight people are killed in clashes outside the Muslim Brotherhood's Cairo headquarters.
July 1 — Huge demonstrations continue, and Egypt's powerful military gives the president and the opposition 48 hours to resolve their disputes, or it will impose its own solution.
July 2 — Military officials disclose main details of the army's plan if no agreement is reached: replacing Morsi with an interim administration, canceling the Islamist-based constitution and calling elections in a year. Morsi delivers a late-night speech in which he pledges to defend his legitimacy and vows not to step down.
July 3 — Egypt's military chief announces that Morsi has been deposed, to be replaced by the Chief Justice of the Supreme Constitutional Court until new presidential elections. No time frame is given. Muslim Brotherhood leaders are arrested.
July 4 — Supreme Constitutional Court Chief Justice Adly Mansour is sworn in as Egypt's interim president.
July 5 — Mansour dissolves the Islamist-dominated upper house of parliament as Morsi's supporters stage mass protests demanding his return. Clashes between pro- and anti-Morsi groups in Cairo and Alexandria, and violence elsewhere leave at least 36 dead. A Brotherhood strongman, deputy head Khairat el-Shater, is arrested.
July 8 — Egyptian soldiers open fire on Muslim Brotherhood demonstrators in front of a military base in Cairo, killing more than 50. Each side blames the other for starting the clash. The Brotherhood calls for an uprising against the military. Mansour puts forward a time line for amending the constitution and electing a new president and parliament by mid-February. The Brotherhood refuses to participate in the process.
July 9 — Mansour appoints economist Hazem el-Beblawi as prime minister and opposition leader Mohamed ElBaradei as vice president. A military announcement backs up the appointments.
July 26 — Millions pour into the streets of Egypt in rival demonstrations after a call by the country's military chief for protesters to give him a mandate to stop "potential terrorism" by supporters of Morsi's Muslim Brotherhood. Five people are killed in clashes. Prosecutors announce Morsi is under investigation for a host of allegations including murder and conspiracy with the Palestinian militant group Hamas.
July 27 —Security forces and armed men clashed with supporters of Egypt's ousted president early Saturday, killing at least 65 people.

The Tour's decisive stages start with a tough test that begins easily enough but has two tasty peaks to spice up the closing kilometres.
The Port de Pailhères didn't feature before 2003 but has become a Tour favourite. It ramps up severely over a series of hairpins towards the summit, from where there's a rapid descent into Ax-les-Thermes to the foot of the final climb.
Ax-3 Domaines isn't long and not overly difficult but the main contenders' speed here should result in some significant time gaps.
