Original Title:
New Fashion Rage: Mall Makeovers
There's a hot new look coming out of Los Angeles. Many are betting it will have you feeling you must hit the stores, and hit them a lot.
Sacramento's Downtown Plaza Shopping Center, for instance, is getting a whole new look. "In the retail world ... changing things around is what they do to stay competitive," said Leslie Fritzsche of the Sacramento Economic Development Department.
The city is working with Westfield, the owner of Downtown Plaza, to open up the mall to the surrounding streets. The idea is to create a village-like ambience - a "lifestyle center" in industry terminology.
Lifestyle centers are not just about shopping, but dining, professional and residential offerings. At Downtown Plaza, one of the immediate changes will be to make the food court face the street instead of the interior of the mall.
Westfield is spending a billion dollars to make similar facelifts to its malls in Southern California, where lifestyle centers and village shopping are all the rage.
Ken Argenio is a recent transplant from Los Angeles. "I think the more flash that you can put into a shopping center with the lights and the music ... people are drawn to that and will shop there," he said. Argenio was shopping at the new Natomas Marketplace that recreates a main street scenario with open air sidewalks, lantern post streetlights and boardwalk lights strung overhead.
A similar lifestyle center transformation is planned for the former Florin Mall, soon to be called Florin Towne Centre.
Arden Fair Mall is also expanding, but it will keep its conventional mall design. "It's not like all of the malls are just going to be this way." Fritzche said.
The city wants to maintain some diversity in the shopping experience. Fritzche said the lifestyle center approach is just that, new and unproven.
Diane Bleich of Sacramento, who shops at Downtown Plaza, backs up the city's concern. Before millions are invested in an open air facelift, Bleich said developers may want to consider one shopper's point of view. "It can be in Venice, Italy, open air ... or downtown here - open air. It doesn't really matter what it is as long as it has the shop I want to go to," she said.

Rox In Eau Claire Friday After Thursday's Game Washed Out In Willmar
The Rox are at Eau Claire tonight to take on the Express. Last night's game in Willmar was postponed to July 10th as part of a doubleheader due to unplayable field conditions at Bill Taunton Stadium.

St. Cloud's next home game is Tuesday at Joe Faber Field against the Alexandria Blue Anchors.

Reuters, 01/02/2013
Six countries have banned imports of Brazilian beef, including No. 6 importer Chile, since a case of atypical mad cow disease was confirmed last month, Brazil's foreign trade secretary Tatiana Prazeres said on Wednesday.
Brazil, the world's No. 1 beef exporter, is considering retaliation at the World Trade Organization (WTO) if the countries do not lift the bans, Prazeres told reporters in Brasilia, insisting that Brazilian beef is safe to eat.
"There is no basis for these decisions on health parameters and the government is analyzing what measures will be taken," she said. "Taking action at the WTO is on our radar."

MEDWAY, MA — Cybex International Inc.'s stock soared upon news it was going public.
The exercise equipment manufacturer filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 3 for a proposed public offering of 3.5 million shares of common stock.
The offering will provide capital to fund Cybex's growth initiatives including the development of new products aimed at specific market segments and the expansion of the company's manufacturing capacity, said John Aglialoro, chairman and CEO of Cybex. The company also plans to pay down its indebtedness. By broadening its shareholder base, Cybex hopes to increase liquidity for shareholders and create a positive foundation for its stock.

I am wondering if it is possible to make this work with a standard schema. I'd like to create, in the XML, a list of strings, and restrict some elements to these.
For example:
I can also live without the attribute "name" restricted to the list, it can be whatever it works, a child element of string type, or anything! The important piece here is: can I restrict something to a part of the same XML, and yet being compliant with the XSD?
Code: Select all
<!-- these are the allowed names -->
<!-- this is ok since "Bob" is listed above -->
<who name="Bob" />
<!-- this is invalid since "Martha" isn't in the list! -->
<who name="Martha" />

MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- The U.S. cotton industry could produce 600,000 fewer tons of cottonseed in 2006 than in 2005 even though cotton farmers are expected to plant nearly 300,000 more acres of cotton this spring.
How can that be, you say? That's because analysts like Dale Gustafson of Citigroup/SmithBarney think cotton lint yields will move closer to trend line levels than in the past two seasons. Gustafson says the lower seed turnout of newer varieties could also continue to be a factor.
Normally, lower seed production would mean higher prices, but that may not be the case because of the supply/demand situation for other oilseeds, according to Gustafson, senior grain analyst for Citigroup Global Markets Inc.
Gustafson was one of three speakers who addressed the "Future Opportunities and Challenges for Cottonseed" at the Southern Cotton Ginners Association and Foundation annual. Mid-South ginners have been struggling lower returns for cottonseed in recent years.
"U.S. cottonseed yields have been trending down," he said, displaying a chart that showed cottonseed yields declining from an average of 818 pounds of seed per bale in 1981 to about 715 pounds per bale in 2005. "You can really see the impact of varietal changes in the last couple of years."
The trend line average would put the national average for cottonseed yields at 720 pounds of seed per bale in the 2006-07 marketing year, he said.
Cotton lint yields, as the industry knows, have been trending up, reaching 850 pounds per acre nationwide in 2004 and 840 pounds per acre in 2005. Returning to the trend line average would put lint yields at 765 pounds per acre in 2006.
Citigroup Global Markets projects that U.S. cottonseed production will decline to 7.3 million tons in the 2006-07 marketing year, 684,000 tons less than in 2005-06 and 942,000 tons less than the 8.24 million tons in 2005-05.
"We will have to scale back crush to 3 million tons in 2006-07, compared to 3.25 million in 2005-06," says Gustafson. "Exports will remain around 375,000 tons and feed/seed/residual use is expected to decline for 4.5 million tons to 4 million tons because of lower supplies."
Cottonseed users are expected to carry 426,000 tons into the new marketing year, beginning Aug. 1.
Several factors are working against cottonseed prices moving higher because of the drop in supplies: Oil mills reportedly are bringing in more rapeseed from Canada and the surge in ethanol refining is making more corn by-product available for livestock feed.
"The potential for more outbreaks of avian influenza or bird flu is beginning to create problems for poultry in the European Union and Russia," says Gustafson. "Those countries are cutting back on consumption of poultry. Pork prices are also coming down, hurting crushing margins for oilseeds."
The Citigroup analyst said he expects cotton oil mills to crush 1.37 million tons of cottonseed meal in 2006-07, or about 100,000 tons less than in 2005-06. Domestic usage is projected to decline 100,000 tons from 1.38 to 1.28 million tons and exports from 110,000 tons to 90,000 tons.
Cottonseed oil production could decline from 2005-06's 992 million pounds to 910 million pounds in 2006-07, with domestic use falling from 975 million pounds to 900 million and exports from 50 million to 40 million pounds.
Demand for vegetable oils is increasing, in part, because of rising demand for biodiesel. Citigroup believes that U.S. crushers could produce 140 million gallons of vegetable oil for biodiesel in 2006, an increase of about 100 million gallons from 2005.
Consumption of soybean oil, one of the primary components of biodiesel is expected to jump by 600 million pounds as food processors continue their preference for cheaper vs. higher quality cooking oils.
"We're not looking for much help from the change in food labeling requirements," said Gustafson. "Over the next six months, we expect consumers will stay with the products they prefer or with the cheaper oils." (Cottonseed oils sells for about a 5-cent-per-pound premium to soybean oil.)
Adding to the woes for cottonseed crushers is the growing belief that South America will harvest another big soybean crop this year. The South American growing season started dry last fall, but recent rains have kept yields from going lower.
Citigroup Global Markets is projecting Brazil's production will reach 58 million metric tons in the 2005-06 marketing year, up 5 million metric tons from last year's drought-reduced season. Bigger crops in Argentina, Paraguay and other countries could push South American production to 104.6 million metric tons, up more than 6 million from 2004-05.
"The increased South American harvest will make it difficult for the United States to get exports running again," said Gustafson. His projection has 2005-06 U.S. soybean exports at 910 million bushels or nearly 200 million less than in 2004-05.
The decline in exports and soybean feel use (from 99 million bushels to 71 million) could increase 2005-06 ending stocks by nearly 300 million bushels to 570 million bushels or 20.5 percent of total 2005-06 usage, according to the Citigroup estimate.
"Stocks are coming back up," said Gustafson. "Normally, stocks at those levels would point to $4 soybeans, but that's not likely to happen because of the new commodity funds."
Hedge funds, which are "all long," have become a major force in the Chicago Board of Trade. "If you get enough funds taking a long position, they tend to cancel out some of the bearishness in the market. It's lifting the whole price structure. That could be true of cotton down the road."

Yesterday morning, Jen was catching up on her blog reading and asked me, "Have you ever heard of the Ruby Rye cocktail?" I said No, and she said one of the food bloggers she reads had a drink by that name at Gramercy Tavern or someplace. All the blogger said was that the drink had port. I googled and found next to nothing. But a drink called Ruby Rye has to also have rye in it, I'd hope, so I decided to wing it.
I have a couple of bottles of Sandeman's port that I received last month for review. I didn't mix with them at first because I wanted to sample them on their own. Jen and I always like to have port on hand for Christmas and New Year's, and so the arrival of the Sandeman's was very timely.
Anyway, I didn't get anything together in time for the Sandeman chat at Thursday Drink Night, but I wanted to mix with it, and this was a good excuse. I figured I'd make it easy on myself, because I am at heart a lazy bastard. So I went with a Manhattan variation, swapping out the port for the vermouth. It's tasty, although I think a spicier rye might be better in it. (I used Old Overholt.)
It's a simple recipe, and although I haven't named it, I'll give it to you here anyway.
The Cocktail with No Name
- 2 oz. rye whiskey (I used Overholt)
- 1 oz. port (Sandeman Founders Reserve)
- 2 dashes orange bitters (Angostura)
- Lemon twist, for garnish (I left that out, but I think it's the way to go)
Technique: Stir briskly over cracked ice. Strain into chilled cocktail glass. Add garnish.
As if it matters, this photo's actually my own. I figured I'd take a crack at the pretty picture-taking myself for once.

FedEx St Jude Classic, McIlroy Leads after 36 holes. June 08 2012
Rory McIlroy, Andy Lyons/Getty ImagesRory McIlroy put his recent troubles behind him as he shot a second round -5 under par 65 to lead by one stroke after 36 holes, at the FedEx St Jude Classic at TPC Southwind, Memphis, Tennessee. Rory's tournament total is -7 under par, hot on his heels at -6 under par are three players; J.B. Holmes, who had the best round of the day, a -6 under par 64, Jeff Maggert, one of the first round leaders. Joining them at that mark is Kevin Stadler, who matched Rory's round of 65 for the day. Rory was full of confidence after his days work; "You know, it was a really, really good round of golf out there today. I saw a lot of positive signs with my ball-striking. Hit a lot of good iron shots and drivers. So that was something that I was really working on the last couple of weeks and feels like it's coming together for me. So excited to be in this position going into the week. Could have been even better, could have made eagle on 16, but, you know, to finish strong the way I did was great and it gives me momentum going into tomorrow. It's nice to see my name on that part of the leaderboard. It's not nice when you're struggling to make the cut on a Friday afternoon. It was great. It's nice to be through to the weekend, obviously. It's obviously even nicer to be leading and have a great chance." J.B. Holmes was pleased with the way he had played; "I just kind of hit everything. I wasn't knocking pins down, but I hit them in there pretty close. Made a couple 6-footers, but I putted well. I was hitting it 15, 20 feet and making some putts." The other first round leader John Merrick, is now two shots off the lead after his second round score of -1 under par, 69, for a two round total of -5 under par. There are a host of players at -4 under par for two rounds, including Rory's playing partner Padraig Harrington who scored another -2 under par round of 68. Notables missing the cut are, last years champion Harrison Frazar with a two round score of +11 over par.Graeme McDowell, who had another horrendous round to finish with a +8 over par total. David Duval and Jhonattan Vegas both finished with +6 to miss the cut. Zach Johnson also missed the cut with a two round total of +4 over par, a poor effort by his high standards. Colombian Camillo Villegas at +3, and Robert Karlsson at +4.

In Memory
In memory of John V. Johnson, 1922 – 7-11-1985:
A million times I've missed you, a million times I've cried. If love alone could have saved you, you never would have died.
In life I loved you dearly. In death I love you still. In my heart you hold a place no one can ever fill.
The golden gates stood open. He said you needed rest. God's gardens must be beautiful, for He always picks the best.
I'll never forget or stop loving you.
Sadly missed by
Wife and family

Hey everyone,
Yesterday I had my chance to relocate my season tickets. To my surprise, there is almost nothing available. If you haven't had the chance to explore your upgrade chances, my bet is you aren't going anywhere, at least this year. Judging by the availability, you can guarantee Seahawks tickets will be a hot ticket.
I can say however that they have perfected the way you choose your seats. They offer a more realistic view of the seats. Check it out for yourself here. http://seahawks.io-media.com

It's hard to imagine that school districts across the country have cut down or totally eliminated the positions of library media specialists. Now that we are sixteen years into the 21st century, one would have imagined this educational position to be considered one of THE most important in the school. Without literate students and graduates, how could we expect them to thrive in college and the outside world? So many uninformed administrations have believed that as long as the Internet and Google are there, they can save money by not hiring a teacher-librarian. As author Neil Gaiman said, "Google can bring you back 100,00 answers. A librarian can bring you back the right one."
One area that we thought was going to make a dent in the printed page was e-Books. While many schools purchased Kindles or other e-Readers, too many were not able to afford the cost. The advent of 3D printers and makerspaces has taken off, with many activities occurring in the media center during and after school hours. But what happens when there is no one to run the school library? What happens to our children without someone there who can really explain how to evaluate a website? How to locate a book on the Holocaust? A biography on a world leader? Is this the direction public education is heading?
When I left my position as a media specialist in June 2016, I was both surprised and upset that the district was not going to replace me. I was located in a junior-senior high school, (grades 7-12) and was the ONLY media specialist in this five-school district. My last year, I was given $0 for my budget. That's when I knew it was time to move on. It's clear that the students will be the ones who will suffer because of this.
If it all comes down to money, districts need to reevaluate their budgets. This is one place they cannot afford to cut.

pacman/Package signing
zh-CN:Pacman-key The pacman-key tool is used to set up and manage package signing in Arch Linux.
- 1 Introduction
- 2 Setup
- 3 Managing the keyring
- 4 Troubleshooting
- 5 Further Reading
Pacman uses GnuPG keys in a web of trust model to determine if packages are authentic. There are currently five Master Signing Keys. At least three of these Master Signing Keys are used to sign each of the Developer's and Trusted User's own keys which then in turn are used to sign their packages. The user also has a unique PGP key which is generated when you set up pacman-key. So the web of trust links the user's key to the five Master Keys.
Examples of webs of trust:
- Custom packages: You made the package yourself and signed it with your own key.
- Unofficial packages: A developer made the package and signed it. You used your key to sign that developer's key.
- Official packages: A developer made the package and signed it. The developer's key was signed by the Arch Linux master keys. You used your key to sign the master keys, and you trust them to vouch for developers.

/etc/pacman.conf determines how much trust is required to install a package. For a detailed explanation of
SigLevel see the pacman.conf man page and the comments in the file itself. Signature checking may be set globally or per repository. If
SigLevel is set globally in the [options] section to require all packages to be signed, then packages you build will also need to be signed using
Required is set then
DatabaseOptional should also be set.
A default configuration of
SigLevel = Required DatabaseOptional
can be used to only install packages that are signed by trusted keys. This is because
TrustOnly is a default compiled-in pacman parameter. So above leads to the same result as a global option of
SigLevel = Required DatabaseOptional TrustedOnly
The above can be achieved too on a repository level further below in the configuration, e.g.
[core] SigLevel = PackageRequired # 'Optional' here would turn off a global 'Required' for this repository Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
explicitly adds signature checking for the packages of the repository, but does not require the database to be signed.
TrustAll option exists for debugging purposes and makes it very easy to trust keys that have not been verified. You should use
TrustedOnly for all official repositories.
Initializing the keyring
To set up the pacman keyring use:
# pacman-key --init
For this initialization, entropy is required. Moving your mouse around, pressing random characters at the keyboard or running some disk-based activity (for example in another console running
ls -R / or
find / -name foo or
dd if=/dev/sda8 of=/dev/tty7) should generate entropy. If your system does not already have sufficient entropy, this step may take hours; if you actively generate entropy, it will complete much more quickly.
The randomness created is used to set up a keyring (
/etc/pacman.d/gnupg) and the GPG signing key of your system.
pacman-key --init over SSH, install the haveged package on the target machine. Connect via SSH and run the following:
# haveged -w 1024 # pacman-key --init
After pacman-key successfully ran, simply stop haveged and remove the package.
# pkill haveged # pacman -Rs haveged
The haveged solution is not just for use over SSH: it's a great way to get some entropy quickly. If you're having problems with
pacman-key --init taking ages then you should try this solution.
Managing the keyring
Verifying the five Master keys
The initial setup of keys is achieved using:
# pacman-key --populate archlinux
Take time to verify the Master Signing Keys when prompted as these are used to co-sign (and therefore trust) all other packager's keys.
PGP keys are too large (2048 bits or more) for humans to work with, so they are usually hashed to create a 40-hex-digit fingerprint which can be used to check by hand that two keys are the same. The last eight digits of the fingerprint serve as a name for the key known as the 'key ID'.
Adding Developer keys
The official developer and TU keys are signed by the master keys, so you do not need to use pacman-key to sign them yourself. Whenever pacman encounters a key it does not recognize, it will promt to download it from a
keyserver configured in
/etc/pacman.d/gnupg/gpg.conf (or by using the
--keyserver option on the command line). Wikipedia maintains a list of keyservers.
Once you have downloaded a developer key, you will not have to download it again, and it can be used to verify any other packages signed by that developer.
# pacman-key --refresh-keysWhile doing
--refresh-keys, your local key will also be looked up on the remote keyserver, and you will receive a message about it being not found. This is nothing to be concerned about.
Adding Unofficial keys
First, get the ID from the owner of the key. Run:
# pacman-key -r <keyid>
to download it from a keyserver. Be sure to verify the fingerprint, as you would with a master key, or any other key which you are going to sign. After verifying the fingerprint, you need to locally sign this key:
# pacman-key --lsign-key <keyid>
You now trust this key to sign packages.
Using gpg
If pacman-key is not enough, you can manage pacman's keyring by gpg like this:
# gpg --homedir /etc/pacman.d/gnupg $OPTIONS
# env GNUPGHOME=/etc/pacman.d/gnupg gpg $OPTIONS
- error: PackageName: signature from "User <firstname.lastname@example.com>" is invalid
- error: failed to commit transaction (invalid or corrupted package (PGP signature))
- Errors occured, no packages were upgraded.
Cannot import keys
Some ISPs block the port used to import PGP keys. One solution is to use the MIT keyserver, which provides an alternate port. To do this, edit
/etc/pacman.d/gnupg/gpg.conf and change the keyserver line to:
keyserver hkp://pgp.mit.edu:11371
If you happen to forget to run
pacman-key --populate archlinux you might get some errors while importing keys.
Disabling signature checking
If you are not concerned about package signing, you can disable PGP signature checking completely. Edit
/etc/pacman.conf and uncomment the following line under [options]:
SigLevel = Never
You need to comment out any repository-specific SigLevel settings too because they override the global settings. This will result in no signature checking, which was the behavior before pacman 4. If you decide to do this, you do not need to set up a keyring with pacman-key. You can change this option later if you decide to enable package verification.
Resetting all the keys
If you want to remove or reset all the keys installed in your system, you can remove
/etc/pacman.d/gnupg folder as root and rerun
pacman-key --init and following that add the keys as preferred.
Removing stale packages
If the same packages keep failing and you are sure you did all the pacman-key stuff right, try removing them like so
rm /var/cache/pacman/pkg/badpackage* so that they are freshly downloaded.
This might actually be the solution if you get a message like
error: linux: signature from "Some Person <email@example.com>" is invalid or similar when upgrading (ie. you might not be the victim of a MITM attack after all, your downloaded file was simply corrupt).

Very pleased
Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
Bought the 6001 desk in Espresso finish along with the coordinating 6007 file cabinet. Very pleased with both. The finishes are top notch...very high quality. Even the bottom of the file cabinet is fully finished. Desk is very functional and cleverly hides all the messy wires while still,allowing for relatively easy access to them when you need it, without the need to move the desk. Assembly is not without effort but is not complicated. My wife and I did it in an hour or less. All the parts fit together very nicely. Desk can be assembled using only the Allen wrench provided with the hardware. File required only a Phillips head screwdriver for castors and drawer pulls. One thing to be aware of... Because of the cantilever design the desk top does jiggle just a bit when you type. Not enough to bother me but if you think it would bother you, be warned. Based on our experience, would definitely purchase BDI products again. Pricey, but we got what we paid for.
Pros: Nice finishes Straightforward assembly with precisely fitting parts Functional Beautiful design
Cons: Slight jiggle when typing

Improving Morale on a BudgetBy Jonathan Rapoport | Posted 2010-04-08 Print
How can you boost your employees' morale without breaking the corporate piggy bank? The answer is simpler than you think.
In this lean economic climate, most companies can't afford to hand out big bonuses and raises for a job well done. So how can you boost your employees' morale without breaking the corporate piggy bank? The answer to that question is simpler than you might think.
After polling employees from more than 500 companies about ways in which employers can improve morale without spending a lot of money, I found that people are not always looking for big bonuses or raises to make them happy (though that would certainly help). They are often looking for the simple niceties that bring fun, energy and respect into the workplace.
Here are some of the ideas culled from employee suggestions:
• Give your staff members creative forums at which they can share their brainstorming ideas to improve company performance. And be sure to reward them if they can bring their idea to fruition.
A forum might be a town hall type of meeting where members of different departments meet with the CEO or other senior management to discuss what works, what doesn't work and how things could work better. Holding such meetings once a month can be an effective way to keep the lines of communication open.
• Having potluck lunches once each quarter—or even once a month, if possible—is a great way to bring work teams together in a casual environment. An easy way to accomplish this is to have different departments organize the luncheons or assign each department to bring certain foods.
• In conjunction with the lunches, you can arrange some board-game Olympics, to which employees can bring their favorite board games and play tournament-style games. For word games such as Scrabble and Bananagrams, you can offer bonus points to employees who spell words relevant to your industry or business.
• E-mailing a trivia question once a week can break up the monotony of the workday, especially if you offer the winners inexpensive prizes such as gift cards for coffee or movie tickets.
• Have an optional charitable service day once a year and allow employees to volunteer for various causes as a team. The United Way, for example, offers a "Day of Caring" each year, matching workers with volunteer opportunities in local communities. You might also offer a certain number of hours per month that employees can use toward volunteering at the organization of their choice.
• Reward an employee for a project well done with an extra day or half-day off. This type of recognition could also be extended to a peer reward program, whereby employees who receive a certain amount of work-related praise from their colleagues can be eligible for additional vacation time or other rewards.
• Choose a month each year and give employees half-day Fridays for the whole month. Another option is to let employees leave an hour early if their work is done.
• Incorporate employee perk programs, such as those offered through my company, to provide employees with valuable discounts to local restaurants, stores, spas, amusement parks and shows.
• Bring in a chair massage therapist, nutritionist or yoga instructor to help reduce stress and promote overall health. Many health insurance providers are promoting workplace walking programs and other health initiatives at no cost to their members in an effort to reduce health care premiums. Events such as health fairs and health screenings will not only improve your employees' health, but can also reduce sick days and improve productivity.
Incorporating a variety of employee perks and programs like these can be easy and inexpensive. But the most effective and desirable morale booster might be the simplest one: expressing your respect and appreciation for your employees often and sincerely.
Simply offering some words of recognition can make a big difference. Employees who feel appreciated will strive to be worthy of recognition, creating a happier, more productive workplace for everyone.

Find DEA Offices (Drug Enforcement Agency). DEA Offices provide information on DEA licenses, certificates, verifications, drug identifiers, drug abuse, the war on drugs, most wanted lists, jobs, and careers as a DEA agent.
The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) is an agency within the U.S. Department of Justice whose mission is to enforce controlled substance laws and regulations. In addition to enforcement activities aimed at bringing individuals and organizations involved in illicit drug trafficking to justice, the DEA supports other non-enforcement programs designed to reduce the availability of illegal controlled substances.
The DEA has many responsibilities, such as investigating violations of controlled substance laws and preparing cases in order to prosecute violators. The DEA also manages a drug intelligence program in cooperation with other federal authorities, state and local governments, and foreign officials. The DEA is responsible for the seizure of assets involved in drug trafficking and enforcing provisions of the Controlled Substances Act that relate to the manufacture and distribution of legally produced controlled substances.
The DEA collaborates with other law enforcement agencies at the federal, state, and local levels on mutual enforcement efforts, including interstate and international investigations. The DEA channels resources to state and local enforcement agencies in order to support their efforts through programs such as Asset Seizure, technical assistance for drug lab cleanup, and initiatives along the Southwest border and other high-intensity drug trafficking areas. Much of the DEA's work also involves coordinating with foreign and international agencies in order to eradicate or replace drug crops, investigate money laundering, and conduct other cooperative investigations.
The DEA's Diversion Control Program is aimed at preventing the illegal use of controlled pharmaceuticals without disrupting or impeding their medical, scientific, or other legitimate uses.
Prevention efforts by the DEA focus on the demand side of the drug trade through a Community Outreach Strategy. The Community Outreach Strategy is intended to raise awareness about the dangers of drug use by disseminating drug information to youths, parents, caregivers, and educators.
The DEA is organized into 21 domestic divisions with a total of more than 200 offices. Another 90 DEA offices are located in 69 foreign countries. The agency is made up of more than 5,000 agents and nearly 6,000 support staff.

Andy Robertshawe needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 33 designs submitted by 10 freelance designers.
Taking Care of Business
We are a small IT design company made up of two brothers - one in New Zealand and one in Australia. Our company is called Missing Piece - our logo is a piece of a jigsaw puzzle. We are developing a great application for the iPhone which will allow business people to send quotes and invoices from their phone as well as recording time and materials spent on the job. We are excited about the potential of the iPhone as a portable computer and we think it is streets ahead of other phones in look, feel and functionality.
Our target audience is business people – generally owners of a small business. Likely customers will also like IT and cool design. They are on the move and communicate by mobile phone, text and email constantly. They like to be able to do business at any time without having to be in the office.
We want a logo that is going to fit in with the whole Apple/ iPhone style. Our logo will be used as an icon on the iPhone menu, a splash screen and a title on the home page of our application. The logo needs to be available as both a square and a rectangle format. The square logo needs to have limited detail as it will be fairly small (see the Apple iPhone on the web for an example). I have attached a photo of the front screen of our application which shows the icons we have used in the application.
Application icon
57 x 57 pixels with 90 degree corners
No shine; no gloss
Does not use alpha transparency
(Apple will ultimately add the glass overlay and rounded corners)
* AppStore icon
512 x 512 pixel version of Application icon
"subtly richer and more detailed" than Application icon
So the image needs to work well in the small format with apple's glass overlay and rounded corners - and it also needs to be dramatic when blown up large.

Whip It!
Directed by Drew Barrymore (Fox Searchlight, 2009)
In Drew Barrymore's new film about tattooed Texas lasses on skates, Ellen Page, who played a glib pregnant teen in Juno (Fox Searchlight), takes a turn around the track as a spunky, frightened, and impulsive roller derby princess.
At first glance Barrymore's film is an old-fashioned coming-of-age tale in which our young heroine finds salvation and liberation by going after her dream, rebelling against loving but repressive parents. In the unlikely arena of women's roller derby (a "sport" treating women with only slightly more dignity than mud wrestling), 17-year-old Burger Barn waitress and reluctant beauty contestant Bliss Cavendar (Page) finds her true calling.
Racing and slamming around the track with her band of misfit sister skaters gives Bliss—now known as "Babe Ruthless"—a sense of purpose, status, and belonging that had always eluded her.
But Barrymore's film is ultimately about what it takes and costs to be a parent, and this teenage drama suggests the adolescent challenges facing Bliss are nothing compared to the labors of the women who carry her through this journey. Brooke (Marcia Gay Hardin) is the working mom who tries to give Bliss the leg up that her own mother had never provided, only to discover that her dreams are not her daughter's. And if Bliss must be courageous on the derby track, the mother watching her daughter slammed against the rails must be a superhero.
Meanwhile, sister skaters Maggie Mayhem (Kristen Wiig) and Smashley Simpson (Barrymore) try to pick up some of the maternal slack, guiding and goading Bliss through the obstacles of adolescence, knowing full well that teenagers only look like adults, and that it takes a lot of parenting to keep them upright. The trick here, as any good skater will tell you, is knowing when to let go of the child and send her out into the world at a speed that scares you to death.

As the Philadelphia Phillies fired the longest-tenured manager in the National League, the longest-tenured manager in the American League said he wants to remain with the Angels.
"This is where I want to be," Mike Scioscia said Friday. "This is what I am committed to."
No major league manager has served his current team longer than Scioscia, who is in his 14th season with the Angels. However, after winning the American League West five times in the first six full seasons under owner Arte Moreno, the Angels are on the verge of missing the playoffs for the fourth consecutive season.
After Friday's 8-2 loss to the Houston Astros, the Angels' .446 winning percentage is the lowest of Scioscia's tenure.
Moreno, asked whether he had decided if Scioscia and General Manager Jerry Dipoto would return next season, declined comment through a team spokesman.
The Phillies on Friday fired Charlie Manuel, who was on pace for the first losing season of his nine seasons in Philadelphia, and appointed Hall of Famer Ryne Sandberg as interim manager.
Scioscia, who grew up in the Philadelphia area, said he had not even considered the possibility of managing the Phillies.
"It's nothing I think about," he said.
Scioscia said he is committed to returning the Angels to prominence. The Angels anticipated greatness when they signed Albert Pujols and Josh Hamilton in consecutive winters.
"We're taking this thing hard," Scioscia said. "We know we need to get better. That's where our energy is going."
Pujols played through an injured left foot until July 27. Hamilton has posted career lows in batting average (.226), on-base percentage (.280) and slugging percentage (.405).
Still, the Angels lead the AL West in runs scored. Yet their 4.51 earned-run average is the highest of any major league team except the Astros.
"There is absolutely no doubt among anybody in our organization: We need to pitch better," Scioscia said. "That's the first line of your defense, being able to execute pitches. We haven't done that to the level we need to.
"I know Jerry is going to pay a lot of attention to that. I know we have the ability to rebound, and it absolutely correlates to knowing we can do a better job on the mound. It's not like our offense doesn't have potential. Even with Albert being banged up and Josh not doing what he is capable of doing, the offense capability is there.
"I don't think anything that Arte has stated about wanting to be a perennial contender has changed. He has given us terrific teams. This one has struggled in some areas. We need to get better. It's on all of us. It's the staff. It's myself. We only know one way to meet the challenge, and that is head-on."
Pujols vs. Clark
Pujols declined Friday to confirm whether he still planned to pursue legal remedies against Jack Clark, who alleged on a St. Louis radio show that Pujols had used steroids.
"I don't want to talk about that," Pujols said.
Pujols said he stood by the statement he issued last week, in which he denied using performance-enhancing substances and said he was "in the process of taking legal action" against Clark and the radio station that aired his show.
Pujols said he did not wish to discuss the matter inside the Angels clubhouse.
"I think it's disrespectful to bring that distraction here," he said. "I said what I had to say in the statement."
Pujols has not played since July 27, when he tore the plantar fascia tissue in his left foot. Pujols said his walking boot was removed Friday, for the first time in three weeks.
Even with the Angels out of pennant contention, Pujols said he hopes to return this season.
"I have a day in my mind," he said, without saying what day.
Bourjos back
The Angels activated center fielder Peter Bourjos, returning infielder Tommy Field to triple-A Salt Lake and returning Mike Trout to left field.
In 86 games in center field this season entering play Friday, Trout was batting .358 with a 1.090 OPS (on-base average plus slugging percentage).
In 37 games in left field, he was batting .278 with an .813 OPS.

Don't Let the Corporations Steal Our Voiceby GDN Shared Post April 16, 2010
Throughout the Black struggle for justice and equality, few things have meant more than the ability to speak out and to speak forcefully. Whether it was David Walker's Appeal for action against the horrors of slavery published in 1829, the cause of Cinque and the Amistad slave ship revolt in 1841, the words of abolitionist Frederick Douglass, the oratory of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., or the fiery rhetoric of Malcolm X—the power to speak, to challenge, to rally, to defend, and to define have been crucial for us as a people.
Today, the battle to have our voices heard isn't about access to a news- paper, a TV show or a radio program. Through the "open" Internet, modern technology has opened the door for Black America to speak truth to power in direct and unfiltered ways. We can speak loudly enough on the Internet that
our points of view make their way into traditional media outlets – our participation in the marketplace of ideas can't be ignored. That's what I mean by an "open Internet": our voices can compete on a level playing field with the biggest corporations, and we don't need a lot of money to do it. This is the reason the Internet is so diverse, and it's why thousands of Black blogs, online businesses, and news sites have flourished in recent years.
But our newfound voice is now in jeopardy. In an effort to make even more money, corporations that provide high-speed Internet service (such as AT&T, Comcast, and Verizon) are trying to fundamentally change the way the Internet works by acting as gatekeepers over what you see or do online. The fight is over "net neutrality," a principle that has guided the Internet since it began, and which means that Internet service providers can't decide which websites load fast, slow, or not at all. Sounds simple and logical right? After all, why would you want At&T to be able to block, filter, or slow down what you or anyone else puts online?
Well, these corporations see it differently. They are fighting the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for the right to create a new system where they can charge large fees to speed up some websites, while leaving those who can't afford to pay in the slow lane. For these companies, the ability to discriminate online would amount to billions of dollars of new revenue. But such a system would end the Internet as we know it — giving wealthier voices online a much bigger megaphone than poorer voices. It would mean an Internet with far less potential for our communities.
Sadly, these corporations have enlisted trusted civil rights groups like the NAACP, National Urban League, and others — groups to whom they've donated millions of dollars — to oppose or question net neutrality policies. These groups argue that net neutrality could limit minority access to the Internet. They say that unless we allow Internet service providers to make bigger profits by acting as gatekeepers online, they won't make high-speed Internet access more affordable in under-served communities. In other words, if Comcast — whose broadband Internet business is already earning 80 percent profit margins — can increase its profits under a system without net neutrality, then it will all of a sudden invest in expanding Internet access in our communities.
The argument is bogus, and the FCC knows it. Businesses invest where they can maximize their profits, period. Internet service providers are already making huge profits, and if they believed that investing in low-income communities made good business sense, they would already be doing it. The idea that making even more money is suddenly going to make them care about our communities is ridiculous.
Expanding high-speed Internet access in poor and minority communities is an important goal and we must fight to make sure it becomes a reality. But there are no reliable data or plausible arguments that suggest preserving net neutrality is at odds with this goal. Still, civil rights groups are creating the false impression that our communities stand firmly against net neutrality policies, giving cover to the broadband providers, and making it difficult for the FCC to protect the open Internet against corporate attempts to control it.
Network neutrality is a civil rights issue for the 21st century, and like the last great civil rights generation, we have a choice to make. We can stand up to the corporations that want to control
the means by which we organize and speak truth to power, or we can allow the Internet to go the way of television, radio, and print media — where we have virtually no control over the production
and distribution of ideas, and where our voices are ghettoized and limited. I'm hoping that we make the former choice, and I appeal to you to join me in making it a reality. You can help by writing the
Federal Communications Commission and telling them that you support net neutrality, or by visiting our website at www.colorofchange.org/opennet. •

After you purchase your first home, you're likely going to feel an itch to redecorate all of your living spaces to your liking. While this isn't unreasonable, it can be difficult to approach the redesign process if you're not exactly a professional interior designer. That being said, it's not impossible to make your brand new house truly your own with a few personalized decorative touches. With the right discount window treatments, wall art and accent pieces, you can make a dramatic improvement to any room in your home. Here are some tips on how to begin the process.
1. Find the appropriate window treatments for each room.
Whether you want to start with your bathroom or your living room, decorating can be simpler if you begin with your windows. The window treatments you choose can set the tone for the rest of your space, whether you're interested in thick drapes or pleated shades. The curtains, blinds and shades you choose can also complement any existing furniture you might have in the room. For example, think of how lovely your wooden Chippendale dresser will look alongside wood blinds.
2. Don't worry about matching.
As you decorate your first home, you'll come to realize that all of the furnishings from your old place might not match seamlessly in the many rooms you now have to decorate. However, HGTV.com states that this is completely normal and you shouldn't force yourself to match everything in sight. Taking a relaxed approach to arranging your decorations and furnishings can help you create an interior design that speaks to your personal taste.
3. Buy what you need and splurge where necessary.
The Seattle Times states that if there was ever a time to make big purchases on furniture, it's when you buy a new home. Whether you could use a new side table or a loveseat, now it's the perfect opportunity as you arrange your furnishings to your liking.
It's also a good idea to invest in high-quality furniture that will stand up to the test of time. After you achieve the perfect interior design in your new home, you'll want to ensure it stays that way for as long as possible. Durable furniture can help you achieve this goal.
Whether you've already moved into your new place or you're merely planning out how you want everything to look once you get there, these tips can help you along the way.

A normal path for a new book is a lot of sales in the first three months, and then things cool off. With Dan Murphy's Bodyslams in Buffalo, however, things have been different.
The book, a history of pro wrestling in Buffalo has been picking up steam sales-wise, said Murphy. "I'm selling more and more as each month goes on as the word-of-mouth gets out. It's picked up a second life online. A few mentions on Kayfabe Memories, and a few other sites, and we're getting orders from all across the U.S. In fact, I know that copies of the book have been given to The Missing Link and Johnny Powers, which is just an absolute delight."
Murphy, 28, has been a freelance writer for Pro Wrestling Illustrated since 1997, and he found the connection invaluable for inspiration, research and photos.
"In my experiences with Pro Wrestling Illustrated, I've just gotten more and more interested in learning about the territorial system and how it developed into what we have today," he said. "One of the things about Buffalo is that it's not a territory that was very well known. There's not a lot of record keeping of it. Just through word of mouth, and the people that I know from my hometown of Buffalo, wrestling's been popular since the 1940s. So it made curious to see what the territory was like, how did this develop and who were some of the big stars who came up through the ranks. So I did some research, went into the PWI archive, and pulled together the basic history."
Having already written the very successful The Erie Canal: The Ditch that Opened a Nation for Western New York Wares, Inc., Murphy had no trouble selling the Bodyslams in Buffalo to the publisher.
"Brian Meyer, the publisher, called me and asked if I had any other ideas, if there was anything else that I'd like to work on," Murphy said. "I pitched this idea, Bodyslams in Buffalo. It was kind of a risky move because wrestling is in the middle of a downturn, obviously, now. Wrestling tends to eat its own past. The fans of today aren't familiar with the stars of 20 or 30 years ago for the most part. So I was going to try to write a history of a territory that wasn't really that well-known, and make the appeal from people who were fans in the 1940s up until the fans of today. It was a sprawling-type project, but we wanted it to be concise and readable and entertaining. Brian loved the idea and we got it going."
In the Publisher's Ponderings at the front of Bodyslams in Buffalo, Meyer admits to taking a bit of a leap of faith. "Dan's concept started to grow on me. Subsequent outlines and chapter summaries were enough to convince me that the idea had potential. Bodyslams in Buffalo is a unique and revealing look at Buffalo's wrestling legacy."
After graduating from Canisius College in 1996 with a bachelor's degree in English and a minor in Irish Studies, Murphy was a reporter around Western New York. He later went into public relations. He has just taken a job with his uncle, as director of sales for Lockport Locks and Erie Canal Cruises. "It's kind of connected to the Erie Canal book. I'm going to be booking group tours, banquets at a facility in Lockport, right on the Erie Canal."
Bodyslams in Buffalo is a real celebration of wrestling in the city. It talks about the early years of grappling in Buffalo, the NWF of the 1970s and the visits by the WWF, ECW and WCW over the years. As well, Murphy features the wrestlers who came out of Buffalo: Adrian Adonis, Lex Luger, Mark Lewin, Johnny Swinger, Mark Mero and Reno.
Central to the 112-page book are the best known grads of Buffalo: 'The Destroyer' Dick Beyer and Ilio DiPaolo, who died in 1995 when he was struck by a car. DiPaolo's family continues to run Ilio DiPaolo's Restaurant and Ringside Lounge in his honour. According to Murphy, there wouldn't have been a book without their co-operation. "In the very beginning, I decided I would only do this book if Dennis [DiPaolo, Ilio's son] and The Destroyer approved of it. The Destroyer met me at [DiPaolo's] restaurant wearing his mask. He sat down, ate lasagna, kept his mask on the whole time. It was great. He told me everything about the history of the territory, and told me where all the bodies were buried and everything."
Ilio DiPaolo's Restaurant and Ringside Lounge will be the site of a major event on Saturday, April 10, 2003 at 1 p.m. The Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame, from nearby Schenectady, NY, will be honouring The Destroyer and DiPaolo with special awards. Fans are invited down to the event to meet the Destroyer and meet author Dan Murphy, who will be signing copies of his book. Murphy has heard that Diamond Dallas Page and Kimberly will be coming as well.

In the census years after her birth Georgiana was always recorded with the surname Golding so her marriage registration was my last (slim) hope of finding out who her father was. Perhaps it was a dead end, perhaps Georgiana never knew her father's name but I had to turn that stone to find out!
The General Register Office for England and Wales website has an online form where you can order Birth, Death and Marriage Registrations.
The first time you use the site you must register but it is free and easy. After that you do not need to register each time, you just log in using your email address and password.
After logging in (or registering) you will see a screen with choices as to what certificate you wish to order
There are 10 - the first 6 for events registered in England or Wales. They are Birth, Marriage, Civil Partnership, Death, Adoption and Commenorative Marriage Certificate
The last 4 choices are for overseas events that were registered with British authorities. The choices are Birth, Marriage, Death or Civil Partnership Certificate
Next you are asked if you know the General Register office index and the year when the event was registered. NOTE: You must have the GRO index for England & Wales Birth, Marriage, Death before 1900. So you need to go to FreeBMD website or Ancestry.com Free BMD index. This is where you will, with any luck, find your ancestor and the details you need to order the certificate.
FreeBMD is being indexed by volunteers from 1837-1983 and this index is then passed on to Ancestry.com where it is also available for free.
Once you check the radio button for knowing the GRO index, you are taken to a screen where you fill out your delivery address details. If you have registered previously, this information is already there next time you log in! A very nice feature.
The next screen is where you fill out your information, including the details you found on the Free Bmd website (GRO index reference information)
You also get to choose what kind of delivery service you want either Standard or Priority (higher priced)
The GRO Reference Information that is required is
District name
Volume Number
Page Number
All of this is obtainable from the FreeBMD website or Ancestry.com website free BMD index (if you find your ancestor there).
Searching the marriages on Free BMD I had a hit!
Marriages Dec 1858
Surname First name(s) District Vol Page
Fuller Charles Hollingbourne 2a 788
Clicking on "788" (the page) brings up a list of all brides and grooms on that page, usually only 4 names. So you can easily see if this is the correct index entry for your ancestors (providing you know both parties names, or at least one full name and one first name for the second party)
Clicking showed me Georgiania's name along with Charles so I now knew the GRO index details needed to order their marriage registration. This is what I needed:
Year 1858
Quarter Dec. 1858
District Hollingbourne
Vol 2a
Page 788
After logging in to GRO website I filled out my required information and sat back to wait. Within 3 weeks the marriage registration arrived in the mail. I was quite excited to open the envelope and see what it said, but reminded myself I should not get my hopes up.
It seemed most likely that Georgiana never knew her father and so that part of the certificate would be blank. Or, as I have seen on other marriage registrations I've ordered when the individual is an illegitimate birth, the father's first name would be given, but no surname!
To my surprise and delight, Georgiana's father was named in full. His occupation was also given. I now had enough information to start my quest for her father. But that is another blog post.....

"Tempered by the burning Forge, wrought by the hands of fate"
-Runeskevi Merkrell Spoken to the tribes of Decragma at the base of Mt Boom
The Nation of Forgewrat'th was formed in time immemorial, before the war between Magix & Mechanix, once no more than nomadic tribes quarrelling over the precious little water and food of the volcanic plains, these groups set aside differences and past trespasses and were united as one by the discovery of the forge, a discovery which sparked possibly the first industrial revolution. Since then there factories have produced some of the finest machinery in the dominion of mechanix.
It is said the great city of Dreadsmoke, built atop a volcano which powers its forges, could produce the tools and equipment of an entire army in a single day, and its ship yards produce the most majestic warships in the realm, the site of the fleet docked out of harbour on the lava lake of Decragma would bring an invading army to its knees, and if not the sight then the cannons certainly would.
In recent years however the fire that burnt brightly in the peoples spirit has turned to mere embers. A great defeat was taken at the court of Runescevi, as the magix turned the court and surrounding city into dust. hatred keeps there forges burning, and hatred will re-light there spirits.

And so the cycle starts anew. Sonic Generations lets players play as a classic, sidescrolling Genesis Sonic or as modern, control-him-from-behind-in-3D Sonic. As Kotaku previously pointed out, there are no special powers and no playable friends.
This latest gameplay trailer is a few minutes longer than the debut trailer, so that's a few added minutes to get your hopes up even more. Let's not mess this one up, Team Sonic!
Sonic Generations will be out on the PS3 and the Xbox 360 this winter.

This is the 3rd installment of my Aduino How-To Tuesdays. This week I am going to cover using another basic part, the potentiometer. I will also cover connecting a servo to the Arduino. Servos can be hard to control, but not with the Arduino! That's just another reason why I love this little micro-controller.

I started my genealogy research and found John H. McKim in the 1881 census for Londonderry Nova Scotia. He was 14 years and living with his parents William and Margaret McKim.
|Sarah C. Willis
John was marrying Sarch C. Willis, 36 born N. Walsingham Norfolk County Ontario to parents Robert Willis Sr. and Mary A. Staley.
The groom John H. McKim gave his residence as Kootenay British Columbia and his occupation as Miner.
|Ethel Willis
After a few hours I narrowed the possibilities for "my" Ethel Willis to Molly Ethel Willis born January 1884 to Robert Willis Jr and wife Lucy Atkinson. Little Molly Ethel was recorded as Ethel in the 1901 census for Tilsonburg with her parents Robert and Lucy Willis and grandparents Robert Willis and Margaret Thompson.
If I have the correct Ethel Willis she was Sarah C. McKim nee Willis' niece.
There are many census records for the McKim and Willis families. The last items I found were the newspaper obituaries or death notices for both John H. McKim and his wife.
St. Thomas Journal. Feb 14, 1945: p. 6 John Herbert McKim, 79th year. died Feb. 14. son of william and Margaret, father of Edwin and Robert McKim
Dutton Advance, Dutton Ontario.
Feb. 15, 1945: Died John H. McKim, Dunwich. 79. son of William and Margaret
June 4, 1953: Died Mrs. John H. McKim, Dunwich. 87. nee Sarah C. Willis
John Herbert McKim and his wife Sarah C. Willis are buried in Fairview Dutton Cemegtery in Dunwich Township Elgin County Ontario.
Their son Edwin McKim is listed as Edmond Willis McKim in the Roll of Honour for Dutton and Dunwich of "Boys Who Paid the Supreme Sacrifice" in WW2.
If anyone knows more about this family and who the other people named in the photos are, I'd like to hear from you. We still have these two identified photographs both taken in Tilsonburg Ontario.

Maui (Kahului) Port of Call
The largest community on the Hawaiian island Maui, Kahului is an
commercial centre perfect to springboard into the lush scenery,
volcanic peaks and paradisical beaches of the rustic and pristine
The best activities on the island are experiencing its dramatic landscapes outside of the port city. The best among these is Haleakala National Park and its enormous volcanic crater or the road to Hana, a spectacular and dramatic scenic drive.
Ships berth at the Kahului's dock, a near walk into town, although nothing of particular interest is close to the port. Most passengers wisely take organised shore excursions or waiting taxis to more interesting destinations around Maui. The beginning of the Hana Highway is next to the dock. Some ships anchor off the coast of Lahaina and tender passengers to its downtown, a short drive from Kahului.
Tel: +1 (808) 874-4919
If arranged rental car agencies can send a shuttle bus to take customer to their office at the nearby airport. Waiting taxis will also take passengers to anywhere on the island but can be expensive. Many choose to use the official organized services of the cruise line shore excursions.
There isn't much to do in Kahului when compared to nearby attractions. For impressive an volcanic landscape and crater Haleakala National Park is breathtaking. One of the most scenic roads in the world is the 50 mile (81km) highway to Hana which starts from the cruise docks and passes ocean-side cliffs and hairpin turns. Lahaina is a popular tourist town and the nearby Kaanapali Beach is the best for water fun.
Da Kitchen Kahului - enormous portions of Hawaiian grilled food
Bistro Manila - friendly restaurant serving excellent filipino food
Makena Grill - Small fish taco stand is the best on the island
Best Dish
Local potato chips...really
There is a standard mall in Kahului although better souvenirs and boutique shopping is found in Lahaina. There are more small shops in Whaler's Village on Kaanapali Beach.
