Part 1[edit]
Rescue From Paradise, for us during our initial playthrough, was a mandatory quest. But, if you manage to breach Lamplight Caverns and get past the child mayor of the settlement, you won't have to do this quest, which turns it from being mandatory into optional. So, you may encounter this differently depending on how your own game goes, but either way, we're going to cover it for you. Rescue From Paradise revolves around rescuing some of the young members of the Lamplight settlement (thereby mandatory for some gamers to continue the quest). To get there, you're going to likely have to teleport to a place already on your map -- we went to the abandoned town of Minefield, which is far due north of the Super Duper Mart. You may need to find another place in which to spring off from, but that's where we did so. Paradise Falls is due north of Vault 106, Arefu, and Seneca Station, so any of those places would work as well.
Our journey brought us across several beastly enemies. We fought some Radscorpions and creatures of that nature, but we also dealt with a plethora of Super Mutants and Super Mutant Brutes en route. Your experience might vary depending on where you're springing off from, but if you're coming from Minefield and heading westward towards Paradise Falls, then chances are you're going to run into Super Mutants like we did. Keep your guns at the ready, remembering that Super Mutants seem extremely susceptible to laser weapons (our Plasma Rifle was housing them as if they were barely there in the first place).
You'll know you're approaching Paradise Falls when you begin encountering some shanties and other barely-standing buildings. Of course, a similar scene can be found all over the Capital Wasteland, so more specifically, you're going to want to keep your eyes peeled for a megalith in the distance -- a humongous humanoid statue that indeed resembles Bob's Big Boy. This obvious take on the Big Boy will surely direct you to Paradise Falls, which is built up adjacent to the long-abandoned fast food restaurant it represented.
Notice[edit]It's important for you, the reader, to know that there are several ways you can get through this area. Because the residence of Paradise Falls are slave traders (or slavers, for short), they are bad guys. So it's actually a good thing in terms of your karma to kill every living resident of Paradise Falls. This is how we played this. But keep in mind that if you're playing as a bad guy or in search of bad karma, you have to treat the slavers as friends and make a deal with them to get your friends freed. There's several ways to do this, from bribing them to forcing them to accept you. We don't cover that here, however.
The entrance to Paradise Falls proper is actually down a garbage and scrap metal-ridden path near the side of what was once a fast food restaurant. It's guarded by several guards, and when you first approach them, the game will automatically take over and put you into a conversation with the lead guard. You can either talk to him from here, threaten him, try to win him over (as mentioned above), or opt out of the conversation completely. You must to the latter in order to get good karma here, opening up fire on him and his nearby cohorts thereafter. Try to get as close to the initial guy you kill before opening fire; this way, your hit rate will be as high as you can get it. Keep in mind that as soon as you open fire, however, things will get a little rough.
To persevere, you have to get through the initial guards of Paradise Falls. Be sure to pick their bodies clean of all of their goods, from weapons to armor to ammunition. They all should have pretty good stuff on them. Be absolutely sure that you grab the Paradise Falls Box Key from one of their bodies before going through the door into Paradise Falls proper. That key is what will allow you to open the cells where the children from Lamplight are being held at the back of the compound, but first you have to get through about a dozen angry slavers, some better-armed than others, but all pretty upset that you're killing their friends. Oh, and if you're especially lucky, expect to find a Mesmetron on one of these early slavers.
Part 2[edit]
The key to surviving such a bloody melee is simple -- patience. If you're patient, keeping a well-defended and fortified position while concentrating on killing a single slaver at a time, you should have little issue surviving the fray. In Paradise Falls proper, keep clicking the VATS button to identify new threats around you at all times, and try to pick as many off as possible from the well-fortified area in front of the initial door before pushing further into the compound. Keep an eye on your flanks and try not to get too inundated with enemies. If two or more guys are giving you a hard time at once, a grenade or mine (or missile launcher!) will help your cause greatly. Only when it appears that all enemies in the area are killed should you then take the time to pick their bodies clean of their myriad valuables.
So, the coast is clear, but it's not time to free the prisoners yet, because there are still stragglers about. The first building you'll want to enter is on your left after entering the main area of Paradise Falls. It's the weapon shop of the slavers, and it's called Lock and Load. Within, you're likely to find two well-armed, hostile slavers. Take them both out as quickly as you can and then pick their bodies clean (grab the Lock and Load Supply Key from one of their bodies). All of the weapons lying around on the counter, in lockers, and boxes are yours for the taking. Expect to find a lot of stuff here (you may need to head back to Megaton or Rivet City and unload some of it before proceeding). Amongst the more valuable things are three Assault Rifles, a Silenced 10mm Pistol, a Sawed-Off Shotgun and two Stimpaks, but you'll find much more than that in total. You can explore the back room and basement, but other than a bed to sleep in, you'll find little else of interest.
Leave the arms shop and run straight across to the door ahead (which would be on your right if you were just entering the area). This is the slavers' barracks, and should be guarded by two well-armed women who will attack you as soon as you enter. Take them both out as quickly as you can, combing their bodies for goods. Then, concentrate on searching around for anything you might want to take with you. Regrettably, there's little of any substantial value here, but you can find Boxes of Detergent and Milk Bottles aplenty. The real valuable stuff is in the Power Fist you should find, as well as the numerous bottles of Whiskey lying about. You can also grab Nuka-Cola from the machine and Pilot Lights from the two ovens.
Adjacent to the barracks, once outside, is another set of doors. A sign that says CLINIC is outside, so you know you're entering the slavers' medical area. The slavers' doctor will attack you when you enter (don't let down your guard if no one seems to be there... the doctor could be in the back room). Cap the doctor and search her body to find, amongst other valuables, Cutter's Medical Supply Key. Use it to open the desk and medical kit along the wall, where numerous valuable medical items can be found. Stimpaks, Med-X, Rad-X, RadAway, Jet, Buffout and Mentats will be amongst the booty here. Grab what you can, sleep off any injuries in the back room if you so desire, and then head back outside.
Before going into the slavers' boss' house and taking him out, you should now take the time to explore the open air kitchen and eating area the slavers utilized before you wiped them off the face of the planet. There's not much in the way of valuables, but you can still find some good stuff, including Junk Food, Squirrel Stew, Vodka, and Wine. All are good items to have on you, especially the latter, which are valuables you can sell once you get back to society (relatively speaking, of course).
Now, the only other house you have to explore is on the far left end of the compound, by some flaming barrels before you reach the final slave holding region. Within, you'll find the slavers' leader, and likely no one else. In fact, he'll likely be in his large bedroom to the back of the building, so he might not even hear you come in, giving you a distinct advantage in this battle. When he opens up on you, he won't be able to do much damage, so rush him with a powerful weapon and VATS his head into oblivion. After searching his body for goods, begin running around and grabbing all of the Whiskey lying around, as well as a Combat Helmet, Sexy Sleepwear, and at least five Nuka-Cola Quantums. Once you've combed the building for goods, head outside. (The slavers' leader will also have another Paradise Falls Box Key on him if you were unable to get one from the bodies of the men guarding the entrance to the compound).
The pens where enslaved children and adults alike are being kept is at the back of the compound (if you're lost, use VATS until you hone in on a Brahmin -- they are located near that beast of burden). There are two gates parallel to one another that need opening with the same key. On the left, you will find some of the children (behind them is a door leading to their chamber -- nothing but radioactive mushrooms to see there). Next to them, more children are being kept with adult slaves. Free them as well (speak to each of them and encourage them to run while the going's good). They also have a chamber with nothing worth exploring within.
Once the slaves are freed and the slavers are dead, you're free to leave Paradise Falls. Head towards the entrance to the compound, and once on the other side, begin seeking out one of the children you just freed (since you can't target children, VATS won't work in this capacity). To end this mission, you must first find one of the children so they can thank you before heading back to their settlement. Only then will the quest come to an end and your experience reward be released to you. Good work! You just did a really good deed in this every-man-for-himself post-apocalyptic hellhole known as the Capital Wasteland. For those who were doing this in order to finish the main quest Picking Up the Trail, you can now head back to Little Lamplight and get to business. For those who were doing this just for the fact that it was an optional side quest, you can move onto whatever else it is you want to do.)

FIFA Ranking: 18
Euro History: The Republic of Ireland have only qualified for this tournament once before, and it was back in 1988. Though they registered a famous win over England, courtesy of a Ray Houghton goal, Ireland didn't advance from a tough group featuring England, USSR, and the Netherlands.
How they qualified: Ireland finished runners up to Russia in the group, but cruised to a convincing first leg play off success over Estonia in Tailinn. The second leg at the Aviva Stadium was simply a qualification party.
Group information and schedule: Ireland are in Group C with Croatia, Spain, and Italy, and will play their matches in Poland.
June 10 v Croatia in Poznan
June 14 v Spain in Gdansk
June 18 v Italy in Poznan
The players and squad thoughts: Giovanni Trapattoni has surprised few with his squad selection, but there are a number of defensive injury concerns ahead of the tournament. The only real loser was Everton's Seamus Coleman, with the exciting, James McClean included.
Goalkeepers: Shay Given (Aston Villa), Kieren Westwood (Sunderland), David Forde (Millwall).
This followed expected lines. Given is first choice, Westwood is second in command, while Galway native Forde is third in the mix.
Defenders: John O'Shea (Sunderland), Richard Dunne (Aston Villa), Stephen Ward (Wolverhampton Wanderers), Sean St Ledger (Leicester City), Darren O'Dea (Glasgow Celtic), Stephen Kelly (Fulham), Kevin Foley (Wolverhampton Wanderers).
Injuries have disrupted Ireland's preparations, so Paul McShane has been placed on standby and could be involved if some of the more established stars problems don't clear up. With a full bill of health, Trapattoni will opt for John O'Shea, Richard Dunne, Sean St Ledger, and Stephen Ward as his back four. They have served him effectively on the journey to Poland with Dunne's heroic display in Moscow the highlight of the campaign to date.
Midfielders: Glenn Whelan (Stoke City), Keith Andrews (West Bromwich Albion), Aiden McGeady (Spartak Moscow), Darron Gibson (Everton), Keith Fahey (Birmingham City), Damien Duff (Fulham), Stephen Hunt (Wolverhampton Wanderers), James McClean (Sunderland).
This is similar to the defensive situation in that Trapattoni has a system and that is what usually happens with his four man midfield too. Damien Duff and Aiden McGeady should be on the flanks with Glenn Whelan partnered by Keith Andrews inside. James McClean and Stephen Hunt are certainly options out wide from the bench, while Darron Gibson would slot into a central role if Whelan or Andrews aren't available.
Forwards: Robbie Keane (LA Galaxy), Kevin Doyle (Wolverhampton Wanderers), Shane Long (West Bromwich Albion), Jonathan Walters (Stoke City), Simon Cox (West Bromwich Albion).
The main talking point surrounds who will partner Robbie Keane up front with Shane Long, Kevin Doyle, and Jon Walters all pushing for selection. Skipper Keane, Ireland's record goalscorer, contributed impressively in the 2002 World Cup and will be hoping to make a similar impact in this tournament. Doyle is his likely accomplice, but Long and Walters have ability too.
How they will do: This will be a demanding group for Ireland, who were efficient and effective in qualifying. That owed a lot to their solid defensive set up with Sean St Ledger and Richard Dunne offering Shay Given plenty of cover. They will need to be at their best to frustrate nifty opponents from Croatia, Spain, and Italy. Ireland's midfield will continue to work diligently, but whatever chances that are carved for skipper Robbie Keane must be taken. The opener with Croatia carries a deep importance.

Flushing Rush's toilet falsehood
Nationally syndicated radio host Rush Limbaugh falsely asserted that Europeans lacked toilets until the United States "came along." In fact, both the water closet and the valve-type flush toilet were invented by Englishmen in Europe.
The Sulabh International Museum of Toilets reports that precursors to the modern toilet date back to western India, circa 2,500 B.C., when "people had water borne toilets in each house ... linked with drains covered with burnt clay bricks."
Closer antecedents to the modern toilet evolved in Britain and France before the United States even existed as an independent nation. In 1596, "J.D. Harrington, a relative of Queen Elizabeth I, invented the water closet -- a toilet with a chain," according to the Fort Worth, Texas, Star-Telegram. In the years that followed, "Harrington's toilet under the name Angrez was being used in France, though not introduced on a large scale in England," according to the Sulabh Museum.
Englishmen also invented the most direct forerunners to the modern toilet. "The first valve-type flush toilet was introduced in 1738 by a man named J.F. Brondel," an English architect, according to Yahoo.com, which cited the Sulabh Museum. Other Englishmen -- Alexander Cummings, Joseph Bramah, and Albert Giblin -- made subsequent improvements to the toilet between 1775 and 1819, according to the Star-Telegram.
Even the man often falsely credited with inventing the toilet -- Thomas Crapper -- was an English plumber who held nine patents for plumbing products during the late 1800s.
From the June 9 broadcast of The Rush Limbaugh Show:
LIMBAUGH: You think they had toilets in Europe before we came along? They didn't. They still don't have toilets in Europe that make any sense. Even after we're here. You ever been to Europe? Use some of their toilets, even in some of the finest hotels, it's amazing!

The great run-up in used car prices we've seen over the last years is over.
It has been for some time.
The latest numbers on wholesale prices the dealers are paying shows not only how far prices have dropped, but also raises the questions of how much further they could slide.
Few are predicting a major drop off from here, but if you're holding out hope that used car prices will continue pulling back that trend is working in your favor.

From time to time I like to ask myself a question in the form of a post. And then, eventually, I get around to answering it. It would be nice if someone else answered the questions for me, but that means that someone other than my mother would have to be reading this blog. Which reminds me: why doesn't she ever comment? I hope she's OK. I should probably call. Maybe she's done taking care of me. Maybe she's moved on, found some other young boy to answer blog questions in the form of a post for.
OK. For now, my question is: why do we eat alfalfa sprouts? And, for extra credit, why don't we eat grown-up alfalfa?
I have an inkling of why we eat the sprouts. They're good for you. But the taste is still very...healthy. As in something you'd never be served at say The French Laundry. I'm willing to be proven wrong on this. The taste reminds me personally of what that fake easter basket grass looks like it tastes like.
I've also got an idea of why we don't eat adult alfalfa. If the kids don't taste good, the parents probably taste worse. At least that's what my life experience tells me. OK, research to follow, eventually. Or some kind soul (this includes you Mom) could pony up and answer it for me. Some healthy person, I bet.
UPDATE: My dear, sweet, wonderful mother has put her undervalued 2 cents in, without even having seen the bait-concentrated version of this post:
"Your Mama usually only knows the medical detail of most things. Alfalfa is an ancient treatment for the ill and poorly nutritoned because it stimulates appetite and it aids in digestion. It also can be used topically to heal wounds and for menses discomfort. Oh, also the ashes of alfalfa are 99% calcium. Adult spouts are way too potent, you may become a new super hero strain."
"Menses?" I'm kidding, she's a nurse. In all seriousness, thanks, Barbie.

Lawmakers to seek $100 million disaster relief package for fishermen
BOSTON (AP) � New England lawmakers are considering asking Congress for $100 million in disaster relief funds for the fishing industry, including money to help fishermen exit the industry and subsidies for those who stay in.
The proposal is outlined in a draft letter to Congressional leaders from U.S. Sen. John Kerry. Discussions are ongoing within the New England delegation, and details could change.
The New England fishing fleet, already pared down by years tightening regulations, is facing catastrophic cutbacks in their 2013 catch.
The draft proposal comes after lawmakers in early August repeated a request to the U.S. Commerce Secretary for a disaster declaration for New England fishermen and fishing communities. That would open the door for federal funds.
No declaration has been issued, but a Kerry spokeswoman said he believes "the finish line is in sight."

Cardinal Sean O'Malley pledges faithful support to Pope Francis
Cardinals elect new pope at Sistine Chapel
Boston Cardinal Sean O'Malley pledged his support to Pope Francis on Wednesday after the Argentinian cardinal was elected pope.
Jorge Bergoglio, who chose the name Francis, is the first pontiff from the Americas and the first from outside Europe in more than a millennium.
The College of Cardinals signaled its decision with a plume of white smoke after two days in conclave.
"At Caesarea Philippi, Jesus commissioned St. Peter the rock upon which the Church would be built. Pope Francis continues that mission in an increasingly secular culture, where many people have not come to know or have forgotten that Jesus is our Savior and Redeemer," O'Malley said in a statement.
O'Malley said Francis has already shown his deep humility in the invitation to pray with him, for him and for the church.
"We pledge our faithful support for the Holy Father as he leads the church in proclaiming the new evangelization, inviting all people to a develop a closer relationship with Christ and to share that gift with others," O'Malley said.
Rumors had swirled about the possibility that O'Malley would be elected pope since Pope Benedict XVI announced last month he would resign -- the first pope to do so in 600 years.
At the time, O'Malley, 68, brushed off the rumors and called himself a "very dark horse" before the conclave.
As Archbishop of Boston, O'Malley faced the fallout from the church's abuse scandals for nearly a decade. O'Malley was named to the post by Pope John Paul II after the scandal forced the resignation of Cardinal Bernard Law in December 2002.
During his career, O'Malley spent stretches in Latin America -- a strong area of growth for the church -- which gives him extensive pastoral experience working with Latino Catholics.

What I like when I work with linux is the console. Instead using mouse to run Evolution to check my email, I just use:
type "evolution"
then press "enter" button.
You can do to another program, such as:
type "xmms" for music
type "xterm2" for terminal
type "konsole" for terminal (Not automatically installed in Ubuntu Feisty, you have to download it with command: $sudo apt-get install konsole).
type "konqueror" for File Manager (Not automatically installed also in Ubuntu Feisty, you have to download it).
to close, just type "exit" and press "enter" in the terminal.

Clinton speech circuit: 5 takeaways
Hillary Clinton's words on the speaking circuit may be closed press, but there's still plenty to learn about her quick pivot from popular secretary of state to well-paid speaker.
She delivered her first post-Cabinet paid speech this week and plans another next week in Florida. These speeches aren't usually the safest way to make money in advance of a potential campaign. And Clinton, of course, has yet to say whether she plans to run in 2016 (people close to the Clintons say she truly doesn't know).
Story Continued Below
But her supporters think she will. And, if history is a guide, Clinton is going to preserve her options carefully. Here are five takeaways from her venture into the speaking circuit.
( PHOTOS: Who's talking about Hillary, 2016?)
• She's not letting the political vacuum be filled by anyone else. Clinton has every incentive to start collecting her reported $200,000 per speech fee as soon as possible. And as long as she picks her spots carefully, there's no obvious downside.
But by doing this so quickly after leaving the State Department — rather than taking more time off to recharge, as she had indicated was the plan — Clinton is embracing the role of front-runner, however passively.
To be sure, Clinton was bound to draw media attention regardless of how long a break she took. But by stepping back on the semi-public stage of the speaking circuit sooner than planned, Clinton indicates she believes she can withstand the scrutiny of a front-runner.
( Also on POLITICO: Paul, Clinton, atop N.H. 2016 poll)
"She just finished a term as secretary of state, she's the putative nominee of the Democratic Party — she can't disappear," said Democratic strategist Steve Murphy.
• Potential rivals, beware. The prevailing wisdom is that Clinton will clear the Democratic field in 2016 since no potential challenger will be willing to take on her combination of political muscle and fundraising prowess.
The problem with that scenario, of course, is that it's precisely what was supposed to happen in 2007. Then a first-term senator named Barack Obama came along, challenged the Clinton veneer of inevitability, and won.
This time, the lay of the land is different — even though people assumed Obama wouldn't challenge Clinton, his star power was well-known in the Democratic Party. Other than New Jersey's Cory Booker, there are few dynamic political players who would be obvious challengers to Clinton. And the pent-up desire for a female nominee is huge.
Still, by not taking a six-month respite, Clinton is making clear to anyone who might try to gather steam during her downtime that she plans to stay engaged and establish the boundaries of her turf, at least on some level.
( Also on POLITICO: Clinton to make paid speech in Fla.)
• Her team is ready. The Clinton machine is a pared-down apparatus at this point — a small office in Washington houses a transition staff of about a half-dozen people.
For the first time in decades, however, she does not have the protection of a government office, one that makes it easier to avoid certain questions, and one that provides a greater layer of protection from the press.

Once reputed as the cradle of suicide bombers, this northern West Bank city was the first Palestinian region that Israel sealed off by building its controversial separation barrier.
But now, with militant gangs subdued and local police units fighting crime, for the first time in years Israeli Arabs like Iyad and Munah Sbeihad are being allowed to make day trips to Jenin to shop and visit relatives after years of separation.
Prodded by the United States, the Israeli army and a reinforced Palestinian security force have tightened their security cooperation, attracting a stream of foreign dignitaries who are directing millions of dollars of aid to stoke renewed economic prosperity in the region.
The goal is to shore up the Palestinian Authority from the kind of chaos that gave way to Hamas's takeover last year in Gaza.
"It's a pretty big deal," says David Makovsky, a senior fellow at the Washington Institute. "Jenin was the archetype during the uprising as the place that was the most dangerous. Now, ironically, it is the most quiet area. It's kind of a symbol: if you make it there you can make it anywhere."
Though they live only a mile from their cousin Shukri Sbeihad in the West Bank village of Rumeiney, Iyad and Munah never saw their relative for six years, as their villages are on opposite sides of Israel's separation barrier.
But on Thursday, as Munah browsed hair clips and dresses in the Jenin market, Shukri and Iyad caught up on each other's lives. "We hugged," says Iyad, describing the reunion over barbecued chicken at Jenin's Al Kuds restaurant. "It was a really long hug."
In addition to partially lifting a six-year ban on citizens visiting West Bank cities (Israeli Jews are still restricted), Israel has boosted permits for Palestinian day workers and businesspeople to cross into Israel to bring more money home for families.
Palestinian villages are being hooked up to water systems and electricity grids, and an industrial park is planned for the next few years.
Israeli security officials say the improvement has been made possible through a sustained effort by the Palestinian police to arrest car thieves and prevent vigilante violence and extortion. And while Palestinians say that only a full withdrawal of Israeli forces, combined with an breakthrough in peace negotiations, will promise sustainable prosperity, they acknowledge progress.
"The siege has been broken partially. It plants hope in the hearts of Palestinian people," says Qaddoura Moussa, the Palestinian Authority's governor of Jenin. "Suddenly our priorities have changed. We're getting back to serving the people."
This week, German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier visited. His government is helping to fund the industrial park. Mr. Steinmeier called the state of the city "miraculous." Recently, diplomats from Jordan, Egypt, and Tunisia have toured the region. A British visit is scheduled for next week.
"Just last week, Tony Blair was in the center of Jenin eating falafel and sipping juice!'' says Moussa, referring to the former British prime minister, who is now pushing economic development projects as the representative of the Quartet of international peace process mediators. "This means Jenin has improved on security."
In recent weeks, about 700 Palestinian officers reinforced the 400 policemen in the region after months of training in Jordan that was overseen by US Lt. Gen. Keith Dayton. The forces have begun arresting and jailing militants from Islamic Jihad.
"The security work in Jenin is promising," says a senior Western official. "And where it counts, in improving the lives of the average citizen and the government of Jenin, the operation is making very strong progress."
At the height of the second Palestinian intifada, Jenin was the launchpad for a series of bombings in Israeli shopping malls and commuter buses that prompted the military to reoccupy all towns in the West Bank. Going after the command centers of the militant groups, Israel's army razed a swath of residential areas in the Jenin refugee camp, prompting allegations of war crimes.
For nearly a year, the local branch of the Aqsa Martyr's Brigades has complied with a program that gives them amnesty from arrest in return for a promise to give up their weapons. Jenin is the second Palestinian town after Nablus where the Palestinian police have been given a degree of freedom to reestablish law and order.
Israeli military officials said that the improvement in the region has allowed groups like the US Agency for International Development to hook up villages to drinking water and sewage systems. It's also helped them allow more civilian and commercial traffic across the Jalameh border crossing at the northern tip of the West Bank. "There's a huge dependence of the Palestinians on the Israeli side,'' said Lt. Col. Fares Ateela, who estimated that Palestinian cucumber exports to Israel would increase slightly, to $30 million this year.
Family ties across the border will also be strengthened. "These will be gifts for my daughters," said Munah, as she paid for clothes at a Jenin store. "A souvenir from Palestine."
There are still restrictions. Entry is prohibited for children under the age of 18, and the Arab Israelis can only stay for eight hours during the day. At the Jalameh checkpoint, they are watched by M-16 toting guards above while subjected to security checks.
Before bidding his cousin farewell, Shukri said that while Jenin residents feel the improvement in security, that the fruits of economic incentives are still imperceptible. "I feel like I'm thirsty, and I've been given some water," he says. "But I can hardly drink any drops."

MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0-1.5 = Sell, 1.5-2.5 = Hold, 2.5-3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.4 Wall Street analysts have issued ratings and price targets for Exela Technologies in the last 12 months. Their average twelve-month price target is $6.00, suggesting that the stock has a possible upside of 633.86%. The high price target for XELA is $9.00 and the low price target for XELA is $4.00.

Web 2.0 and System z Pilot Workshop - And Other Conversations
MartinPacker 11000094DH Comments (2) Visits (10806)
A couple of days ago I attended the pilot of a "Web 2.0 and System z" workshop in the Boeblingen lab. I'm pleased to say the room was full - both with IBMers and non-IBMers. And I think my presentation - which was basically a rant about Web 2.0 Behaviours and why we should adopt them as mainframe folks :-) - went OK. One of the things that was interesting about it was that on greeting Luis Suarez... [More]

The same Kevin Keller I mentioned in this blog post is running a one day pilot of a "Web 2.0 and System z" workshop on July 8th, in IBM Böblingen. It's designed for customers, though some of the audience will undoubtedly be IBMers. I've looked at the agenda and, while I'm on it, it's a great agenda. :-) Actually it has the highly-acclaimed Luis Suarez on the agenda as well. (I'm looking... [More]

Take a look at my German colleague Kevin Keller's new blog in Web 2.0 and z/OS. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised at what runs on z/OS that the rest of the world would regard as modern . :-) I say "modern" rather than "Web 2.0" because I feel the latter term is generally overused. What is really to the point is quite how much stuff could (and in many cases should) be implemented on z/OS, e.g.... [More]

Why Mainframe Folk Should Care About Web 2.0

I presented a set of (someone else's) foils on Web 2.0 to my team meeting last week. (Interestingly, being 6 months old they were already way out of date - what with Twitter and all.) Remember I'm in a mainframe crowd of effectively "gurus". :-) So why should they be interested in new-fangled webby stuff? So I got to thinking... Dear reader, why should you care about Web 2.0? The minimal answer is... [More]

I've lost record exactly, but around 3 years ago I started (obviously stopped and napped for 3 years) a 64-bit fork of Mupen64 0.5.
The result is finally available at: https://github.com/cxd4/mupen86
This isn't meant to be an official continuity to Hacktarux's work on either Mupen64 or some other related project, but it is meant to be an end to the lack of ability to develop and confirm valid 64-bit emulation plugins for the N64 RCP. We've lacked a 64-bit emulator for so long; now this fork can be used by developers to verify the portability of their work to 64-bit Unix-based systems. There was Mupen64Plus, but ultimately that project was not successful at fixing the plugin system for 64-bit (even in 1.5 which restyled but didn't fix any of the plugin ABI miscommunications).
The fork otherwise is experimental, but anyone else is welcome to play with it or post patches, PRs or the like. Obviously the x86-32 dynamic re-compiler by Hacktarux was a bit quicker in my interest to just #ifdef out to hurry up and have a stable 64-bit interpreter to test the important stuff out. (Hence the misnomer: "Mupen86", which just means that the interpreter-only state tries to ignore all the x86-specific recompiler stuff intertwined in the source. I figured better to name this "Mupen86" than "Mupen64" and risk confusion with the upstream project.) I believe it should compile for Windows but have not been able to test without MinGW-w64; I know that for MSVC I began writing a WDK batch script to use to build but never ran on Windows for long enough to finish fixing. Otherwise, just compile Project64 on Windows with the x64 configuration to test 64-bit plugins on Win64; the plugin specs allocation has been confirmed as consistent across both.
Now, where to get plugins if you don't feel like writing your own test ones (for all 4 plugin types, at least)?
Here are some 64-bit plugins I have used successfully with this emulator. You will have to build them yourself:
- purplemarshmallow's z64gl fork with our improvements and fixes
- Azimer's Audio HLE, but it has no working sound output device for Linux yet. We did get it to compile, though.
- Rice's Video Plugin 6.1.0 stable, ported to OpenGL but good luck getting it to initialize with Mesa3D
- a little keyboard input plugin I wrote, featuring rapid automatic control stick rotation and turbo button fire
- a fast interpreter-only RSP plugin I wrote
- angrylion's pixel-accurate RDP and VI project, if you port it to OpenGL or whatever
- dummy audio plugin...included with the old 0.5 mupen64 source archive
- JttL's SDL audio plugin 1.3...included in Hacktarux's archive, can't remember how I compiled it
- blight's SDL input plugin...again, included in archive; go compile.
- experimental software graphics plugin by Hacktarux...again, included in archive
- Mupen64 RSP HLE plugin with Azimer's audio code...probably works just can't remember running it
- Glide64 Final? I guess but forgot where to go to try grabbing the zilmar-spec source from to compile it.

About Hank Shaw:
Hank Shaw is a New Jersey native who worked as a political reporter for various newspapers for 18 years until becoming a full-time food writer, outdoorsman and cook in 2010. A forager and angler since he could walk, Hank began hunting in 2002 and has never looked back. He hunts or fishes for all the meat he eats at home, and foraged foods form a daily part of his diet. Hank runs the wild foods blog Hunter Angler Gardener Cook, which has twice been nominated for a James Beard Award. He won the International Association of Culinary Professionals award for Best Blog in 2010 and 2011, and his magazine writing has appeared in Food & Wine, Organic Gardening, Field & Stream, as well as many other publications.
About Hunt, Gather, Cook: Finding the Forgotten Feast:
If there is a frontier beyond organic, local, and seasonal, beyond farmers' markets and sustainably
raised meat, it surely includes hunting, fishing, and foraging your own food. A lifelong angler and forager who became a hunter late in life, Hank Shaw has chronicled his passion for hunting and gathering in his widely read blog, Hunter Angler Gardener Cook, which has developed an avid following among outdoor people and foodies alike. Hank is dedicated to finding a place on the table for the myriad overlooked and underutilized wild foods that are there for the taking if you know how to get them.
In Hunt, Gather, Cook, he shares his experiences both in the field and the kitchen, as well as his extensive knowledge of North America's edible flora and fauna. With the fresh, clever prose that brings so many readers to his blog, Hank provides a user-friendly, food-oriented introduction to tracking down everything from sassafras to striped bass to snowshoe hares. He then provides innovative ways to prepare wild foods that go far beyond typical campfire cuisine: homemade root beer, cured wild boar loin, boneless tempura shad, Sardinian hare stew, even pasta made with handmade acorn flour.

Antioxidants Lower the Risk of Cataracts
By Michael A. Smith, MDAs you age, the lens of your eye can become clouded, impairing your vision. These opacities on what otherwise would be a transparent lens are called cataracts, and they represent the most common cause of blindness worldwide.
Although conventional surgical treatment is an important consideration in the management of advanced cataracts, the medical establishment often fails to emphasize the need to optimize your antioxidant intake – which has now been established as a strategy that can significantly lower your risk.
Researchers at Guangzhou Medical University and Jinan University in Guangzhou, China selected 13 studies that included a total of 18,999 participants for their analysis. The studies evaluated the risk of cataracts in association with blood levels of vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E, alpha-carotene, beta-carotene, lutein, zeaxanthin, lycopene, and beta-cryptoxanthin.1
Watch Dr. Mike explain the results that were published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition in the short video below. This is pretty exciting, to say the least.

Charlotte Hornets
Brooklyn Nets complete sweep of Charlotte Bobcats, 105-96
The Brooklyn Nets know they will need more performances like Saturday's from Deron Williams if they have any plans of going deep into the playoffs.
Williams had 32 points and six assists, carrying the Nets in the final 1 1/2 minutes as Brooklyn strengthened its hold on fourth place in the Eastern Conference by beating the Charlotte Bobcats 105-96.
"This league is so full of big-time point guards. When you have one of, if not the best, it makes a huge difference," Nets interim coach P.J. Carlesimo said.
"The things about Deron . when he shoots 11 for 18, gets 32 (and) makes all of his free throws, that's great. But his defense, he did an excellent job tonight. Defensively, he does that a lot. He sets the best screens of all our smalls. He runs the team well; he makes good decisions. He makes most of the offensive calls. He does a lot of things that aren't obvious that he was doing, even when his shot was not there. But when the whole package is there, it keeps us in the game."
Brooklyn moved 1 1/2 games ahead of Chicago for the No. 4 seed and home-court advantage in the first round of the playoffs.
With 6:18 left in the game, Ben Gordon's floater started Charlotte's 12-4 run. He trimmed Brooklyn's nine-point lead in the fourth quarter to 95-94 with 2:44 left after hitting a pair of 3-pointers. Williams then turned the ball over and the Nets called timeout with 2:30 left, but after Reggie Evans was whistled for a foul, Gordon missed another 3-point attempt that would have given the Bobcats the lead.
Joe Johnson missed a fadeaway 18-footer and Williams immediately got to work in order to avoid what would have been one of their biggest losses of the season.
He jump-started Brooklyn's 10-2 run that eventually closed out the game by hitting a turnaround jumper that made it 97-94 with 1:19 left. Charlotte called time with 1:16 left but Gordon lost control of the ball under the basket and Brook Lopez, who practically fumbled away Brooklyn's loss to Chicago two nights earlier, got the steal.
After Jannero Pargo missed a 3-pointer, Williams went on to make six free throws sandwiched around a pair of free throws from Evans.
"I think I'm definitely being more aggressive. I think while Joe is working his way back and getting back to his form, I have to be able to take over," Williams said. "I'm one of the guys that can create his own shot, create for others and I'm just looking to do that."
Lopez added 19 points and backup Andray Blatche had 16 as the Nets completed a four-game sweep of the NBA-worst Bobcats.
Lopez said the team was disappointed in the way the Nets lost to the Bulls after leading by as many as 16 points.
"It was definitely a good day given how the last game ended," Lopez said. "I think we were disappointed in ourselves that we didn't put them away early, but it really was a good test for us to have it go down to crunch time."
Gordon scored 27 points and Gerald Henderson had 22 for the Bobcats.
"When you're coming back, fighting back from the lead, you need to pretty much play perfect basketball," Gordon said. "You can't afford to have any errors and we did. I think that's what cost us the game."
Evans had 10 points and 20 rebounds for the Nets, who have six games remaining. They are off until Tuesday, when they host the Philadelphia 76ers before playing at Boston on Wednesday night. They visit Indiana on Friday and face three teams below .500 in their last three games.
Gordon came off the bench to make 6 of 11 3-pointers for the Bobcats, who have lost two straight and seven of their last 11.
As the Bobcats close out their first season under coach Mike Dunlap, the coach found some positives in another tough loss for his young team. He thought of about 15 games that could have gone their way, including the loss against Miami on Friday night.
"We're carrying a huge amount of losses and this last month we've been unbelievable. It's staying at the game. It's a playoff team. They're in the four hole," Dunlap said. "So whether it's Miami and doing what we did the other night and then winning at home against Philadelphia, the guys in this locker room are in a good place. They like each other. It's rare at this level to accumulate all that and do what we did tonight."
Gordon and Pargo, whose second 10-day contract expired earlier this week and was signed for the rest season, combined for 24 of Charlotte's 31 points in the second quarter to give the Bobcats a 54-53 lead at halftime.
Notes: Johnson had 15 points for the Nets and made only three of his 10-point attempts. ... Blatche scored 12 in the second quarter while Lopez rested. . Williams made a pair of 3-pointers to pass former Net Vince Carter for most 3-pointers made in a season with 157. Kerry Kittles owns the franchise season-record with 158, set during the 1996-76 season. . Brooklyn's 44 wins are its most in a season since winning 49 during the 2005-06 season. ... The Bulls host the Pistons on Sunday. Four of their next six opponents have losing records, but they will also face the Knicks and Heat.

Although injured Pro Bowl outside linebacker Terrell Suggs is eligible to begin practicing as soon as Wednesday under league rules, the Ravens are noncommittal on whether he'll rejoin his teammates on the field this week.
The Ravens are taking a cautious approach with the Defensive Player of the Year, according to team and league sources.
Ravens coach John Harbaugh said he hasn't made up his mind on when Suggs will begin practicing after he suffered a partial tear of his right Achilles tendon in late April during the NFL draft with Dr. Robert Anderson repairing the damage with a surgical procedure.
Suggs remains on the physically unable to perform list, but can be activated any time between now and the first week of November.
"We haven't decided that yet," Harbaugh said. "We'll make that decision obviously by Wednesday and we'll just have to see where we're at then and see how he's doing."
A source close to Suggs said he's unsure if he'll practice this week.
The Ravens have a three-week window to make a decision on Suggs' status or place him on injured reserve. Regardless of his readiness, though, the Ravens could opt to activate Suggs and carry him on the roster even if it takes him until late in the season to be able to play.
A source reiterated what it said following the Ravens' 9-6 win over the Kansas City Chiefs -- that Suggs is more likely to return in the middle to later portion of November than this month.
"It's going to take time," the source said. "There's no reason to do anything risky with a guy this important. You have to think about the big picture with him."
Although Suggs has made steady progress in his rehabilitation, the Ravens have no intentions of doing anything to risk a potential setback and aggravate the injury.
Suggs has trained steadily at the Ravens' training complex, but still needs to work through scar tissue, get accustomed to contact again and return to optimal game shape.
Suggs led the Ravens with 14 sacks and seven forced fumbles last season. Without Suggs in the lineup, the Ravens' pass rush has languished with just 10 sacks in six games.
Ngata has sprained MCL
Pro Bowl defensive tackle Haloti Ngata sustained minor medial collateral damage in his right knee during a 31-29 win over the Dallas Cowboys, according to a league source with knowledge of the situation.
The source characterized the sprained knee as a "tweak," and Ngata is expected to play Sunday against the Houston Texans at Reliant Stadium.
"A relief, sure," Harbaugh said. "Absolutely, I'm very grateful for that. His injury is minor."
Ngata also aggravated a minor right shoulder injury Sunday. However, Ngata returned to play after being examined and finished with six tackles and the Ravens' only sack of Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo.
"I had to fight through that throughout the game," Ngata said. "They got me pretty good. I felt like I would finish all along. I just didn't want to not finish. We had a good rotation going."
Offensive line holds up
With the exception of a single spin move by Dallas Cowboys star outside linebacker DeMarcus Ware to get past left offensive tackle Michael Oher and tackle quarterback Joe Flacco, the Ravens allowed just one sack Sunday.
The Ravens' offensive line held up well overall as they surrendered just three quarterback hits.
"We got the victory, and Joe had decent time to throw the ball on a lot of plays," Oher said. "That's what we want. That's one of the best defenses we'll see all year. Those guys are great across the board. They do a great job at a lot of different things."
The Ravens had allowed four sacks against the Chiefs, but had much better pass protection this game.
"We did a good job all day up front," said Flacco, who completed 17 of 26 passes for 234 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions for a 106.9 quarterback rating. "They're a pretty physical defense. They're a good defense, and they've got guys that can get to the passer. So, I think we did a good job all day of limiting that and getting the ball out of my hands. I think our receivers did a good job of beating the coverage pretty quickly, so I didn't have to hold onto it too long."
On the sack by Ware, offensive guard Bobbie Williams, who started his first game in replacing Ramon Harewood, got bull-rushed to the ground by defensive tackle Jason Hatcher.
"I think I did pretty well," Williams said. "I did trip that one play. I always think you can do better. I'm going to beat this film up and find a way."
Rookie offensive tackle Kelechi Osemele allowed two sacks and four quarterback pressures against the Chiefs, but did fairly well against outside linebacker Victor Butler. He allowed one pass deflection.
The Ravens' line received some sharp criticism last week from the coaching staff.
"We knew we had a challenge," said Osemele, a second-round draft pick. "Coach [Harbaugh] kind of called us out a bit. We responded and answered the bell, pride on the line and everything."
End zone
The Cowboys built a commanding time of possession advantage, 40:03 to 19:57, as they outgained the Ravens in total offense with 481 yards to 316 yards. "It's important," Harbaugh said. "I always believe it starts with the defense. You take it on your own shoulders and say, 'Let's get off the field.'" ... Harbaugh saluted Orioles manager Buck Showalter before kickoff. Showalter was an honorary game captain. "I looked back and 'Bam,' there he was," Harbaugh said. "It's like, 'That's Buck Showalter. Hey, Buck. I think you're great.' I said, 'Hey, we've got to talk.'"

Could Sandy delay the election?
The Federal Emergency Management Agency is preparing for Hurricane Sandy to disrupt next week's elections, agency Administrator Craig Fugate said Monday afternoon.
"We are anticipating that, based on the storm, there could be impacts that would linger into next week and have impacts on the federal election," Fugate said on a conference call with reporters.
Story Continued Below
But any potential tinkering with Election Day would bring a bevy of legal issues.
"Our chief counsel's been working on making sure that we have the proper guidance," he added. "We're going through the regulatory policy and making sure all that's in place and we can support it."
Fugate did not address whether the election could be delayed — a question that federal officials said last week is up for states to decide.
"Whether the election can be postponed or not is a legal black hole," said Adam Winkler, a law professor at the University of California at Los Angeles. "There's very little precedent for such an act."
Federal law requires presidential elections to be held on the Tuesday after the first Monday in November, but it also provides that if a state "has failed to make a choice on the day prescribed by law, the electors may be appointed on a subsequent day in such a manner as the legislature of such State may direct."
( See also: Complete coverage of Hurricane Sandy)
In case of emergencies that threaten to disrupt voting, the federal Election Assistance Commission advises state election officials to "review existing State law to determine if the Governor has the power to cancel an election or designate alternative methods for distribution of ballots."
At the moment, Fugate said, authorities don't have enough information about Sandy's impacts.
"It's really too early to say what will be the impacts of the storm, and that's why it's again important that we'll be supporting the governors' teams and their supervisors of election or secretaries of state as they determine what … assistance they may need," he said.
That lack of information also extends to legal circles, which have only just today begun to discuss the issue, Winkler said.
One primary issue is that any weather bad enough to postpone an election would likely have to be catastrophic in scale, UCLA Center for the Liberal Arts and Free Institutions Director Daniel Lowenstein wrote to POLITICO in an email.
"There is always likely to be some bad weather somewhere and various other kinds of problems on election day," he said. "To warrant any kind of postponement of the election, it would have to be truly extraordinary and pretty widespread."
