My Kiowa Linux Beta 3 Desktop.
I've been playing with some of the features the GNOME desktop has to offer. Changing the desktop background was a snap. And since my nephew has been sending me information on the upcoming Ironman movie (you can see the latest trailer here), I decided to grab one of the Ironman movie images floating around the web.
All I did was right click on the desktop and selected "Change Desktop Background." A new window appear and allows the user to add images form anywhere on the hard drive and then select these images. I added the Ironman image from my Pictures folder, it then became part of the wallpapers dialog, and I simply highlighted it and pressed "Close." The background changes! Very easy! And there are other tools to tweak the size of the background image, adjust fonts, and choose themes.
In a word,this new Kiowa Linux Beta 3 release is Sweet! I'll be posting more information as i continue to explore this exciting Linux distro!
Get Linux.

This definitely looks great! But I cannot access the Kiowa home page due to some reason - it has been blocked on my ISP server.

Well I am on limited broadband, so no chance of downloading Kiowa unless it's something les than 200MB (which most probably isn't). One main reason I use Ubuntu is for their ShipIt! service.

Ubuntu's Shipit service is terrific for those who don't have a high speed connection or are limited in some other way. I've used it myself.

I know it's apples and oranges, but I'm having a hard time deciding if selling my JX-8P (+PG 800) in favour of a Waldorf keyboard is a good idea. I'd love an XTK, but if not a Blofeld. I'm just thinking the JX-8P overlaps too much with the other synths in my setup...
I've got a Juno 60, 2 x Prophet 600, Pro One, 20mini and the JX. Although I've learned to love the JX, I find myself going towards either the 600 or 60 for all my analog pad duties, something the JX obviously excels at. The 600 gives me a sound that has some bite, while the 60 gives me pleasant chorus drenched pads. The obvious answer is to sell one Prophet, but I wanted to upgrade both my 600s with the firmware update and then chain them together. Sad, I know.
I've since decided that what's missing from my setup is something digital, especially with the departure of my ESQ. I'd prefer a unit with plenty of knobs, but I'd settle for a Blofeld-esque synth. I do love the wavetable sound, and definitely think it will add a dimension that is lacking from my overall sound. Funnily enough the JX can get some near digital sounds, and can get pretty crazy with it's modulation capabilities....but I still go to it for pads.
What would you do? Does the JX overlap too much with my current synth setup? Should I keep and just learn to love the JX instead?

I've recently begun to slowly learn Latin (and at the same time re-learn the construction blocks of a human language), and I came across a phrase I find funny.
It's "one of". In this case, "one of the saints". It goes "unus ex sanctis", and wiktionary says about 'ex':
ex (+ ablative)
1. out of, from
(there aren't any alternative definitions listed)
Which should make it "one from the saints", which in a way might be a synonym for "one of the saints" , but wouldn't the genitive - "unus sanctorum" - fit better?
I haven't really gotten to numerals yet, maybe that's a prerequisite? Or am I missing something else?
Thanks in advance for any advice.

NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- FedEx Corp. said severe winter weather dragged down its fiscal third-quarter earnings -- resulting in the company missing market estimates -- as repeated storms disrupted operations, lowered shipping volumes and raised costs.
The snowstorms and frosty temperatures hurt the package-delivery company's operating income by about $125 million and caused the company to reduce its earnings outlook for its fiscal year.
FedEx's report is the first glimpse of just how badly the brutal winter hurt not only the air-express business, but the entire U.S. freight and transportation industry.
For the quarter ended Feb. 28, FedEx reported a profit of $378 million, or $1.23 a share, up from $361 million, or $1.13 a share, a year earlier. The year-ago period was dragged down by $47 million in business realignment costs. Excluding those expenses, year-earlier earnings were $1.23 a share.
Revenue increased 3.2% to $11.3 billion.
Analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters projected a per-share profit of $1.45 and revenue of $11.44 billion.

with Euryalos
to the Rutulians camp
Here are some corrections for a strict literal translation.
Duces Troianorum: leaders of the Trojans
iuvenes: youths (typo, probably)
ad hos: to these men
ex illis: could refer to either the camp or the men. There's no noun in the Latin, so if you need strict literalness 'camp' shouldn't be there; on the other hand, if you take illis as masculine plural (more likely to my mind), it's standard procedure to translate it as 'those men'.
somnus istos habet: sleep has the men (can't be the camp, which is neuter)
in castra Rutulorum: into the camp of the Rutulians
dux Rutulorum: leader of the Rutulians
scribet, dabit: will write, will give

When I started breast feeding my daughter two months ago the general advice was not to worry about her eating too much because she would stop when she got enough.
However I think that I have raised a glutton.
I'm not sure how much she weighs, but she looks as if she has grown a lot in the last few weeks. Also she spits up very often and I wonder if she takes in more than she can hold.
I think have a hard time telling when she is hungry as most of the hunger signs we are told to look for are also primitive reflexes.

Television Icon Dead at 81 [VIDEO]
Larry Hagman, the iconic television star, maybe most famous for the character of J.R. Ewing from the t.v. show "Dallas", has lost his battle with cancer at the age of 81.
Hagman died Friday at 4:20 p.m. at Medical City Dallas Hospital from complications in his fight with cancer. His family released a statement in a post at DallasNews.com...
Larry's family and close friends had joined him in Dallas for the Thanksgiving holiday. When he passed, he was surrounded by loved ones. It was a peaceful passing, just as he had wished for. The family requests privacy at this time."
Hagman's big break came in the role of Major Anthony Nelson on the series "I Dream of Jeannie". The series ran for five years, and has been on television in re-runs forever. (I loved that show, both black and white, and color episodes.)
Check this out... the very first episode of "I Dream of Jeannie"...
Hagman took on the role of J.R. Ewing in the t.v. series "Dallas" in 1977, and many think of that as the gig that really launched him to stardom, and made him most iconic in television history.
Hagman most recently returned to star in the 2012 TNT re-make, of the "Dallas" series...
Hagman had a liver transplant in 1995, and most recently had been battling throat cancer.
(I am not sure of the year, it was around the time that J.R. got shot, my younger brother Doug was at the skating rink, and broke his arm. He called home, and told my mother that he needed to go to the hospital. She told him.... "Wait 'til Dallas is over, and I will be there.")

Internet Ethics: Views From Silicon Valley
On Designing a More Ethical Internet
Shannon Vallor
Over the following weeks, this video series will present the views of several Silicon Valley tech leaders on some of the key issues in Internet ethics today. This first entry, however, sets the context of the conversation. What does it mean to live well by means of the Internet? In what ways can the Internet help us live well, or make it more difficult to live well? In this brief video, Santa Clara University Associate Professor Shannon Vallor looks at the Internet through a philosopher's lens. Now that the Internet has become a medium through which we live a big portion of our lives, she argues that we all need to think about Internet ethics much more broadly and deeply--and that the people who devise Internet tools and services should think not only about meeting the user's immediate desires and needs, but also about doing that in a way that promotes a good life.
We invite you to sign up (via email or rss feed) to be notified as a new video clip is posted each week, and we look forward to your comments!

Here is my translation of Catullus 51. Comments and criticisms are more than welcome.
Ille mi par esse deo videntur,
ille, si fas est, superare divos,
qui sedens adversus identidem te
spectat et audit
dulce ridentem, misero quod omnis
eripit sensus mihi: nam simul te,
Lesbia, aspexi, nihil est super mi
[vocis in ore.]
Lingua sed torpet, tenuis sub artus
flamma demanat, sonitu suopte
tintinant aures, gemina teguntur
lumina nocte.
Otium, Catulle, tibi molestum est:
otio exsultas nimiumque gestis:
otium et reges prius et beatas
perdidit urbes.
This man seems to be an equal of the gods.
This man, if it is right, appears to surpass the gods:
He who, sitting opposite you,
gazes at you and listens to your
sweet laughter again and again. Those things
from my misery snatch my senses: indeed,
the instant I look at you, Lesbia,
nothing of my voice is left in my mouth.
My tongue is tied, a thin flame of love
flows down through my limbs,
my ears ring with their own sound and
my eyes are covered with the twin night.
Catullus, leisure for you is troublesome:
In leisure do you rejoice and delight too much:
Leisure has, in the past, ruined kings and beautiful cities.

Loch Katrine is a 13km-long fresh water loch in the heart of Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park.
Set in the centre of Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park, the name Loch Katrine comes from the Gaelic cateran meaning Highland robber, the most famous of which was born on the loch's northern shores, famous folkloric hero Rob Roy MacGregor.
The beauty of the loch has long inspired literary figures, including Sir Walter Scott who was inspired to write his famed poem Lady of the Lake in 1810 after visiting Loch Katrine. It also inspired poets Samuel Coleridge and William Wordsworth.
Queen Victoria famously sailed up the loch in 1869. Following in the steps of royalty, the feat that can be repeated today on the historic steamship, Sir Water Scott. Launched in 1899, the steamship still ferries passengers up and down the loch from the Trossachs Pier.
There are also bike hire facilities at the pier so you can explore the loch side on two wheels and be rewarded with some spectacular views.
The loch has served as the main fresh water supply for the city of Glasgow for over 150 years.

Burnett brilliant as Phils blank D-backs, claim series
PHOENIX -- A.J. Burnett made himself at home in Arizona all weekend.
On Friday, he painted his face like an undead creature just like many of the locals as part of Zombie Night at Chase Field. A day later, he goofed around with his buddies in the dugout and gleefully rooted on his teammates to victory.View Full Game Coverage
PHOENIX -- A.J. Burnett made himself at home in Arizona all weekend.
On Friday, he painted his face like an undead creature just like many of the locals as part of Zombie Night at Chase Field. A day later, he goofed around with his buddies in the dugout and gleefully rooted on his teammates to victory.View Full Game Coverage
But the veteran finally wore out his welcome on Sunday afternoon when he shut down the D-backs' offense and hushed the crowd in a 2-0 victory to seal the series for the Phillies. It's all fun and games until you shut out the home team for eight innings with a steady dose of curveballs and fastballs. Burnett also threw one changeup.
"It just seems to be the theme," Burnett said. "We don't like it when we lose and it's even keel when we win, so it's good."
Burnett allowed only five hits and struck out eight in the victory, his first of the year and the Phillies' fifth in their last seven games. The Phillies now return to Philadelphia for seven games with a 6-4 record on their 10-game road trip and a 13-12 mark overall.
"It's a good way to the end the road trip and it turned out to be a good road trip," Phillies manager Ryne Sandberg said. "Burnett is a gamer and a battler. He had good stuff. He and [Wil] Nieves teamed up for a couple of good outings. I think it's 15 scoreless innings with those two teamed up."
The backup catcher has been a sparkplug all season. The Phillies have won all five of Nieves' starts behind the plate.
"He's fun to throw to. He has that energy about him," Burnett said. "He keeps you locked in and we're lucky to have two catchers like that. It was definitely a good day."
How in sync were the tandem on Sunday?
Nieves said Burnett rarely shook off the pitches he called and the catcher often pretended to give more signals in order to fool the Arizona hitters.
"Last time I caught him, he was on and we were on the same page and it happened today," Nieves said. "I think catching him, there is that trust that even if he does not want to throw something, he still does it because he trusts me."
Communication is not an issue between Burnett and Nieves. Burnett's health doesn't seem to be a problem, either.
Burnett has three quality outings since being diagnosed with a hernia earlier this month. His success could be explained by him shortening the lead stride in his delivery, which has given him a better command of the strike zone.
"He said it's keeping him humble," Nieves joked. "Instead of trying too hard, he is throwing nice and easy. Hopefully, he can keep the hernia all year."
The Phillies wasted little time against D-backs starter Brandon McCarthy. Ben Revere led off the game with a single, stole second base and came home on single by Chase Utley for an early 1-0 lead. Rivera is 9-for-10 in stolen bases this season.
"The way he gets on consistently allows him the opportunity to steal bases when it's right and he's getting a lot of chances," Sandberg said. "With those opportunities and his speed, it played big today."
Utley stung the D-backs again, this time in the sixth inning, when he led off the frame with a double. One out later, Marlon Byrd followed with a sharp grounder to D-backs shortstop Chris Owings in the hole near third base. Once Owings corralled the ball, he threw toward D-backs third baseman Martin Prado in an attempt to get Utley, who was advancing to third on the play. The ball sailed past Prado and Utley scooted home for the Phillies' second run.
It was more than enough.
"There's going to be days like that when Burnett's on and he's got the breaking ball's going," McCarthy said. "It's a struggle to score runs. It's fun to be part of a battle like that. I wish that we would've come out on top. Some days when there's a pitcher out there like that there isn't much you can do."
McCarthy struck out a career-high 12 batters in the loss. Jonathan Papelbon closed out the game for the Phillies.
"I thought [McCarthy] threw very well," Sandberg said. "Some of the guys commented that the ball looked small coming out of his hand just because of his size and his delivery, which is kind of interesting. He had a real good cut-fastball and a mixture of pitches. We were fortunate to get the early runs off of him and allow A.J. to do his thing."

MotorWeek Video Transcript: BlueTec Clean Diesel and GM's Cylinder Cut-off
Jessica Shea Choksey:Mercedes-Benz has over 80 years of diesel experience. So it's no surprise they are on the cutting edge of making them environmentally friendly. The full-size seven-passenger 2007 Mercedes-Benz GL320 BlueTec is the cleanest diesel sport-utility vehicle in the world. Named after the color of the emission reducing urea fluid injected into the catalyst system, BlueTec is the technology that can ultimately make clean diesels the obvious choice for Americans. Using Mercedes latest 3.2 liter Turbo diesel V-6, the GL320 will also be the most efficient big SUV with an anticipated highway fuel economy of over 25 miles per gallon. The GL BlueTec goes on sale in January.
Also making fuel-saving automotive news is General Motors. As part of their turn-around strategy, GM is quickly ramping up production of all new full-size pickups. Both the 2007 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra will hit showrooms this November. With the addition of cylinder cut-off, Silverado and Sierra with the 5.3 liter V-8 will carry government fuel economy ratings of 20 miles per gallon on both 4X2 and 4X4 models. And even more efficient hybrid electric powertrain is also in the works.
GM hopes their all new pickups will buck the current downturn in full-size truck sales. Putting much needed cash flow back in their pockets. And that's it for this week's MotorNews.

In the movie The Big Lebowski, the aging, stoned hippie played by Jeff Bridges announces that he helped write the Port Huron Statement. We don't remember the "dude" being there, but it's gratifying that the founding manifesto of Students for a Democratic Society still lives in the nostalgia and imagination of so many.
A glance at the web will show tens of thousands of references to "participatory democracy," the central focus of that document, which still appears as a live alternative to the top-down construction of most institutions. Participatory democracy has surfaced in the campaigns of the global justice movement, in utopian visions of telecommunications, in struggles around workplace and neighborhood empowerment, in Paulo Freire's "pedagogy of the oppressed," in grassroots environmental crusades and antipoverty programs, in political platforms from Green parties to the Zapatistas, in participatory management theory, in liberation theology's emphasis on base communities of the poor and even in the current efforts of most Catholics to carve out a participatory role for laity in their church. The Port Huron Statement appears in numerous textbooks and has been the subject of thousands of student papers. This continued interest is the more impressive, since the statement was never marketed or even reissued as a book. It was produced only as a mimeographed pamphlet in 20,000 copies, which sold for 35 cents. We were jaundiced toward the very notion of public relations.
Recent celebrants of the Port Huron Statement include authors Garry Wills and E.J. Dionne, who see in its pages a bright promise of rational reform that was later lost, when they say SDS became too radical. At the other end of the political spectrum, Robert Bork says the "authentic spirit of Sixties radicalism issued" from Port Huron in "a document of ominous mood and aspiration" because it embodied a millennial vision of human possibility. The former radical David Horowitz reads the statement as encoding a "self-conscious effort to rescue the Communist project from its Soviet fate." At different moments, both Democrats and Republicans (under Richard Nixon) have invoked the rhetoric of participatory democracy in campaigns. This perplexing spectrum of reaction reflects, we believe, the statement's attempt at a new departure from the conventional dogmas of left and liberal thought.
Did we succeed, and if so, how? This year's occasion of the Port Huron Statement's fortieth anniversary provides a chance to ask whether its importance today is primarily symbolic and nostalgic, or whether, as we believe, the core of the statement is still relevant for all those trying to create a world where each person has a voice in the decisions affecting his or her life. It remains, as we described it then, "a living document open to change with our times and experiences."

The Walrus Says
"I am the very model of a modern Major General. I've information vegetable, animal, and mineral, I know the kings of England."
For over a century, Gilbert and Sullivan's comic opera "The Pirates of Penzance" has been performed by opera and repertory companies all over the world. The above lyrics are from the familiar and much-parodied Major General Song that you will hear this weekend as the Jamestown Community Chorus presents its concert version of the operetta.
In the barest of a synopsis, the story concerns Frederic, who will be played by Ethan Rosser, who, having completed his 21st year, is released from his apprenticeship with a band of tender-hearted pirates. He meets Mabel (Bethany Clarke), the daughter of Major General Stanley (Robert Morton-Ranney), and the two fall instantly in love.
Frederic discovers that he was born on Feb. 29 and has a birthday only once every four years. Since his apprenticeship indentures state that he remains apprenticed to the pirates until he is 21, he has many more years to serve. Bound by his own sense of duty, Frederic's only solace is that Mabel agrees to wait for him faithfully.
Other chorus members singing roles from the operetta are: Terry Horsley, Pirate King; May Morris, Ruth; Michael Smith Jr., sergeant of police; Jim Traer, Samuel; Dorothy Strang, Edith; Judy Stickney, Kate; and Pam Watters, Isabel.
The concerts will be performed on Saturday, March 5, at 7:30 p.m., and Sunday, March 6, at 3 p.m. at the Central Baptist Church. Questions? Call 423-1574.
Kudos to Churchill and Banks, East Ferry Deli and Morneau and Murphy for their generous donations to the eighth-grade Washington trip. Dimitri Varrecchione, Ian Archibald and Connor Ferguson were in front of Jamestown Wine and Spirits selling duck numbers for the Great Duck Derby at Mackerel Cove scheduled for April 30.
Marianne Kirby and Steve Cirella were among many who now have ducks in the race. Donations can also be sent to Susan Baccari, 10 Weatherly Court, Jamestown, RI, 02835. Make checks payable to the Jamestown School, memo "Washington D.C. trip." Students will be out selling tickets every weekend. Tell them that you wanna buy a duck.
Elizabeth Mancini, Jim Caswell, Andrea von Hohenleiten and Marcia Wirth identified last week's poser: Dan Fogelberg's "Longer."
"It was played at our wedding in 1980 at St. Mark [Church]," George and Susan James said.
Andrea wonders if anyone remembers a year like this when there has been snow on the ground consistently since December.
Poser: And I wonder if I
Ever cross your mind
For me it happens all the time
Having endured the worst of Rhode Island weather over the years, I find it strange to see a TV "weather alert" preceding a forecast for rain.
An e-mail from Gail Wheelock read: "I just received the Jamestown Press here in Sebring, Florida. Though I often, due to advanced years and good memory, know the answers to your questions, I have never contacted you. This week, however, is different. My maiden name was Penner. As a child in the 1940s every adult I met apparently felt compelled to ask me, 'Wanna buy a duck?' Joe Penner, no relation."
Are you thinking of adding a pet to the household, but a dog or a cat would be a bad fit? We asked Dr. Joshua Hatch of the Jamestown Animal Clinic what he would suggest and he told us that rabbits and guinea pigs are very popular because they are quiet, clean and can do well in smaller houses and apartments and rabbits can easily be litter box trained. He said to be sure there are no wires or cords within reach that the rabbit may chew on. A ferret is another small mammal that can make a good pet. Hatch cautioned, however, that they tend to be more mischievous and require more care because they might hurt themselves chewing on wires or knocking things over on to themselves.
"In Rhode Island, you must acquire a permit from the R.I. Department of Environmental Management to import or own ferrets because even though they are domesticated animals they are still considered wildlife by the government, so be sure to contact the RIDEM if you are considering a ferret for a pet," Hatch advised.
If Gilbert and Sullivan is not your thing, a wonderful blend of traditional American and Celtic folk music and dance, along with original songs and poetry, will be offered by the award-winning duo Atwater- Donnelly on Sunday, March 6, at 3 p.m. in the Jamestown library's meeting hall.
The husband and wife blend vocals with an array of instruments including the mountain dulcimer, old-time banjo, tin whistle, guitar, limberjack, mandolin and harmonica.
It's all free and open to the public.
A Snapple moment known to your dentist: The human jaw can generate a force up to 200 pounds on the molars.
Be true!

Face and Jaw Surgery
Prolonged numbness
I had 4 wisdom teeth extracted about 5 days ago. I was given anesthesia to put me to sleep. However, some of the numbness has not worn off around my mouth and lip area. Is this something I should be concerned about or will it eventually wear off?
Prolonged numbness with the extraction of wisdom teeth is usually associated either with the irritation or damage of the nerve that gives sensation of the lower lip, gums and teeth. This is dictated by the location of the wisdom tooth in relation to the nerve (inferior alveolar nerve) and the difficulty of removal of the wisdom teeth.
In general, the gum tissues take days to heal, bone takes weeks to heal and the nerves take months to heal. The complete recovery of the nerve is dictated by the extent of inflammation or damage to the nerve. This can be determined by your oral surgeon. Your history indicates that you have partial sensation which is a sign indicating that majority of the nerve sensation will return back. However, this would take few months to recover completely.

Our Stinky Expert answers your most frequently asked questions about Amorphophallus titanum.
Do you have a question? Ask our Stinky Expert!
hollyemail: How do you pollinate it once the bloom opens?
Stinky Expert: Very carefully! No really, this is a great question. A good quality paintbrush, preferably sable, is used to dab up the "donor pollen" and is applied to the receptive stigmas of the female flowers on the first night it opens, or on the following morning. The window of opportunity for this is roughly one day, for on the first day after opening, the male flowers shed their pollen and by this time the female flowers are no longer receptive. This prevents autogamy, or self-pollination, in order to maximize the distribution of genes and maintain presumably more adaptive genetic diversity.
francesgee: In which types of climates does the Corpse Flower thrive best, if someone were to purchase the plant at The Huntington and transplant it into a home garden here in Southern CA?
Stinky Expert: Native to the equatorial rain forests of Sumatra, Titan Arum thrives best in an evenly warm and humid environment such as a greenhouse. We recently received a picture from someone who had one blooming in a container in his backyard in Seal Beach.
aswinter: How long does it take for the bloom (inflorescence) to actually open? Minutes? Hours? Stinky Expert: Actual bloom time varies, but in 1999, it was 7 hours from when the bloom started to open until it was fully open.
hswork: What taxonomic class, order, and family does genus Amorphophallus titanum belong to? Stinky Expert: Family: Araceae, Order: Arales, Class: Liliopsida (monocots)
rab5: Once it flowers, how long before it closes down? In other words, once we get word that it's in bloom, how quickly should we get over there and take a look? Stinky Expert: An Amorphophallus titanum in bloom is as rare as it is spectacular. A plant can go for many years without flowering, and when it does the bloom lasts only 1, 2 or sometimes 3 days.
bill0976: I think I have one growing in my yard. Is that possible?
Stinky Expert: Great question! While Amorphophallus titanum is very rare, many similar (but much smaller) plants can be found growing in home gardens. The closest relative may be Amorphophalus rivieri, which grows to a height of about four feet and smells nearly as bad as its larger cousin. Two other related plants are the Dragon Arum (Dracunculus vulgaris), pictured at right, which grows to about two to three feet in height, and the Voodoo Lily (Sauromatum venosum), which grows to 12 to 18 inches in overall height. Calla Lilies, anthuriums, and philodendrons are also members of the same family.
eosturtz: What did The Huntington have to do in order to produce this flower? Stinky Expert: Nothing – we're The Huntington! No really, we didn't do anything special, we just gave it a warm environment like its home in Sumatra, and stood back. dnkb5: Is the plant also known as Rafflesia? Stinky Expert: No, Rafflesia, although also from Indonesia and other parts of southeast Asia, is in a different family and unrelated to Amorphophallus. Rafflesia has the distinction of having the largest individual flower, up to about 3 feet across. 7yhot00: Can I buy my own Stinky plant? Stinky Expert: Yes, they are widely available via the internet. jkl089: I smelled it in 2002. It stinks! What makes it smell like rotten meat? Stinky Expert: The chemicals responsible for the odor were once thought to be putrescine and cadaverine, which are the chemicals that produce the odor in decaying animal flesh. Researchers recently analyzed the odors of several species of Amorphophallus, and found the chemicals responsible for that of A. titanum (and other species) to be dimethyl disulfide and dimethyl trisulfide. As a comparison, one of the chemicals responsible for the odor of rotten eggs is hydrogen sulfide. maryt77: Is the one that's going to bloom a male or female plant? Stinky Expert: Both - even though it's commonly referred to as the world's largest "flower," the Titan Arum is really a cluster of flowers called an inflorescence. Hundreds of tiny flowers are hidden at the base of the spadix. These flowers are where pollination occurs and where fruit and seeds develop. The plants in nature do not fertilize themselves; the female flowers open first and are only receptive for a short time, after which the male flowers open. This ensures cross-pollination and prevents inbreeding.

US Foods plans move from Mass. to Seabrook
By GRETYL MACALASTER
Union Leader Correspondent
— Town officials got some welcome economic news during Tuesday night's planning board meeting.
US Foods, one of the nation's largest food distributors, made an informal presentation regarding plans to move their Peabody, Mass., facility to the former Poland Springs warehouse building on Ledge Road.
Seabrook Town Manager Bill Manzi said the move would bring about 250 jobs from Massachusetts and about 100 more jobs would be added.
The company said they plan to invest about $40 million into site acquisition and improvements, Manzi said.
The next step will be for US Foods to come back before the planning board for full site plan review.
"Obviously it is very exciting for Seabrook and for New Hampshire as well," Manzi said. "It will bring jobs, good jobs, with benefits, health care and good pay."
Manzi said the 505,000-square-foot Poland Springs building is now underutilized and even US Foods will not use all of the space.
Seabrook is well-positioned for the move because of the space availability and its proximity to Interstate 95, Manzi said.
"It is a great thing for Seabrook and New Hampshire. We are glad to see the company expanding here and don't mind taking a little business from Massachusetts," Manzi said.
Reached by phone on Thursday, John Glynn, president of US Foods Boston division, referred all questions to the corporate communications office in Rosemont, Ill. Calls to that office were not immediately returned on Thursday.
According to the US Foods website, it is one of the nation's leading foodservice distributors to restaurants, health care and hospitality facilities, government operations and educational institutions. It employs about 25,000 people in more than 60 locations.
According to its Facebook page, the company does more than $21 billion in annual revenue and is the 10th largest private company in the U.S.

Pharmacy and Medications
Hiatal Hernia/Gerd and Anti-Inflammatory
I have a small hiatal hernia with associated GERD. I take Prilosec for the GERD and have no symptoms. Is it okay to take anti-inflammatory medicines such as Advil for things like headaches, sore foot, etc? If so, how much is too much?
Yes, you can take anti-inflammatory medications like over-the-counter (OTC) ibuprofen (Advil, others), naproxen sodium (Aleve, others), or ketoprofen (Orudis, others) for minor aches and pains as described. Acetaminophen (Tylenol, others) could also work for you and is typically less likely to cause stomach irritation. Acetaminophen may be a better choice for patients with underlying stomach conditions.
OTC medicines must contain approved dosing information on their label. Follow the dose instructions provided. Use the lowest possible dose for the shortest period of time. If the doses listed on the label do not relieve your pain, it would be most appropriate to see your doctor for evaluation and treatment. Your physician or a pharmacist who knows you may provide additional information.
This response was prepared by Sara Rotman, a PharmD candidate at the NetWellness.org College of Pharmacy.

UPDATED: Man dead after armed Dover standoffBY JOHN QUINN
Union Leader Correspondent
October 01. 2013 9:15PM
DOVER — Authorities say they do not know if the Dover man involved in an eight-hour standoff shot himself or was felled by police.
Fire Chief Richard Driscoll said his department evacuated about 100 residents from the Fairfield Gardens apartment complex and a residential area along Plaza Drive Monday night. Driscoll said residents were initially told to "shelter in place" while police secured the area around 7:30 p.m.
State and local police are investigating the matter, which began after a woman, who was taken to the hospital, reported being assaulted. Soon afterward, police exchanged gunfire with a man in the hallway of the 1 Northway Circle apartment building.
No police or other residents were injured.
Police have not released the identities of the man or woman involved in the incident. The standoff ended around 4 a.m., according to Police Capt. Bill Breault.
An autopsy is scheduled for today, according to Assistant Attorney General Janice Rundles.
"We cannot confirm until then whether he died by his own hand or from a shot fired by police," she said in an email.
Most of the apartment residents were able to return to their homes early Tuesday morning after the man, who held police off for more than eight hours, was found dead.
Driscoll said when it became apparent that the incident would be prolonged, officials decided to activate an emergency shelter at the McConnell Center, a nursing home-rehabilitation center.
"The residents were great — they understood the need to evacuate," Driscoll said of those who lived at Fairfield Gardens.
Once the shelter was ready, Driscoll said residents of all ages, including many families, were transported to the McConnell Center via Recreation Department vans and First Student buses.
He said many people took advantage of the cots and blanket to get some sleep during the long night.
Recreation Director Gary Bannon said his department, which oversees the McConnell Center, opened up the emergency shelter around 11 p.m. to provide a safe place for residents to receive refreshments, get some rest and await information.
"A number of the residents contacted relatives and friends once they arrived and were able to find accommodations with them and left the shelter. Many more, around 40 people, had to stay and ultimately prepared to sleep here in one of the several rooms set up with cots and designated as sleeping areas," Bannon said.
Driscoll said once police gave the "all-clear" around 4:30 a.m., most people chose to return despite the early hour.
The incident remains under investigation by the Attorney General's Office, according to police.

Date: Saturday, Oct. 15, 1988
Final score: Dodgers 5, Oakland 4
Starting pitchers: Tim Belcher vs. Dave Stewart
How it unfolded: Oakland swept past Boston and had six days to rest for the World Series. After their seven-game win over the Mets, the Dodgers had Thursday and Friday to regroup, not enough time for a quick turnaround by Orel Hershiser, who pitched a complete-game victory to clinch the NLCS. The Dodgers' roster had plenty of former Athletics players and vice versa. Kirk Gibson was injured, still getting treatment in the trainer's room, and didn't take part in the pregame ceremony. Fernando Valenzuela, with a sore shoulder, was left off the playoff roster for this series.
Key play I: Mickey Hatcher, batting in the No. 3 spot, hit a two-run homer in the first inning that drove in Steve Sax, who was hit on the shoulder by Stewart on the first pitch. Hatcher sprinted around the bases.
Key play II: Jose Canseco's grand slam in the second inning off Belcher hit and dented the NBC center-field camera for a 4-2 lead.
Key play III: Mike Scioscia's sixth-inning single to score Mike Marshall brought the Dodgers to within 4-3.
Historic play I: Scioscia popped out to short and Jeff Hamilton struck out against Dennis Eckersley to start the bottom of the ninth. Mike Davis, hitting for Alfredo Griffin, drew a walk. The stage was set for Kirk Gibson's one and only appearance in the series.
"The bad left hamstring … the swollen right knee … and with two outs, you talk about a roll of the dice, this is it," Scully said.
On a 2-2 pitch, Davis stole second, taken for ball three by Gibson.
At 8.37 p.m.: on the seventh pitch he saw, Gibson reached out and connected on Eckersley's back-door slider. He deposited it into the right-field pavilion.
WP: Alejandro Pena (1-0)
LP: Dennis Eckersley (0-1)
HRs: Oakland's Jose Canseco (1), Dodgers' Mickey Hatcher (1), Dodgers' Kirk Gibson (1).
Attendance: 55,983
Quote: "It was a dumb pitch," Eckersley said. "It was the one pitch he could pull for power. And he hit the dogmeat out of it."

Connor Randel Shines on Campus and in the Community.
Barry University's Stamps Scholars are recognized as the best, the brightest and the most promising future leaders. With various leadership roles on campus and in the community, rising senior and student-athlete Connor Randel is proving to be just that.
As a Stamps Scholar within Barry's Stamps Leadership Scholars Program, which provides recipients with full tuition and room and board over four years, plus funds for study abroad, undergraduate research and other learning experiences, Randel is responsible for fulfilling GPA, leadership training and community-service requirements. Since he joined Barry's Stamps program as a freshman, Randel has not only fulfilled his requirements but has gone over and beyond what is required, earning academic recognition on Barry's Dean's List and President's List and membership to several honor societies, serving as the fund manager and head of community service for Barry's Student Managed Investment Fund, and serving as president of Barry's Student-Athlete Advisory Committee.
"The Stamps family's generous offer of a full-ride was a no-brainer," Randel said. "They offered me the chance to further my education without being strapped by debt for the rest of my life. This gift is something I will never be able to fully pay back to the Stamps family, but I will try through my successes and community involvement. I think the best approach I can take is a pay-it-forward mentality, and you better believe I will one day pay it forward!"
Randel, who is double majoring in finance and accounting, has earned recognition on Barry's Dean's List five times as an undergraduate, earning a minimum 3.5 GPA, and has placed on the President's List, earning a 4.0 GPA, three times. He's also been named a member of the Financial Management Association National Honor Society, the Delta Epsilon Sigma Honor Society, a national scholastic honor society recognizing students, faculty and alumni of colleges and universities with a Catholic tradition, and the International Honor Society Beta Gamma Sigma, which recognizes excellence in business. In addition, in 2012, he was named as one of 16 Sunshine State Conference men's and women's student-athletes on the Capital One Academic All-District Team.
As an undergraduate in Barry's Andreas School of Business, Randel became involved with the Student Managed Investment Fund (SMIF), a student-founded and student-run investment research and management organization. As a fund manager for the SMIF, Randel manages a team of six students who perform equity research and present recommendations for various equities to be included in the SMIF portfolio.
"This hands-on experience will be a huge benefit to me in my career after graduation," said Randel, who plans to one day become a Certified Public Accountant (CPA).
As the head of community service for the SMIF, Randel operates a financial literacy class at William H. Turner Technical Arts High School, in which he and members of SMIF make monthly visits to the high school to teach students about finance.
In addition to serving the local community through his role in the SMIF, Randel has also participated in Barry's Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program, an IRS-funded tax preparation service for low- to moderate-income individuals.
Randel has also been a member of Barry's men's soccer team since his freshman year. Although he was injured during the 2013 season and was unable to play, he continued to represent his teammates as the president of Barry's Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC), a committee comprised of student-athlete representatives that provides insight into the student-athlete experience and takes an active interest in the rules, regulations and policies that affect student-athletes' lives on Barry's campus.
In his role as SAAC's president, Randel worked alongside Barry Athletics and the Make-A-Wish-Foundation this spring to respond to the wish of a boy from the Miami area battling a life-threatening medical condition who wished to visit one of Silicon Valley's leading technological companies. In February, Barry University granted the boy's wish during a special reveal event during its homecoming basketball games.
"I and my fellow committee members had a once in a lifetime opportunity to give a guy his wish," Randel said. "It was an experience I will cherish for the rest of my life."
Last spring, Randel traveled with other Barry Stamps Scholars to the University of Michigan to join Stamps Scholars from around the country for the 2013 Stamps Scholar National Convention.
"It was really cool meeting so many brilliant students from all over the place," Randel said. "It was an unreal feeling knowing America's and the world's future was at the convention. These were the brightest and hardest-working students from many of the top universities in the nation."

SOURCE: Xero
February 19, 2013 17:02 ET
SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwire - Feb 19, 2013) - Leading online accounting software firm Xero continues its rapid innovation with a world-first launch of bank reconciliation on mobile, available on both Apple iOS and Android devices. Bank reconciliation is incorporated into the latest versions of Xero Touch now available from the Apple App Store and Google Play.
Xero was the first cloud accounting software to introduce daily automated bank feeds for business owners, transforming the time-consuming bank reconciliation process into something people could actually finish in seconds and enjoy doing. And now, Xero is the first online accounting software to bring bank reconciliation to mobile -- and it's fast.
Bank reconciliation on Xero Touch automatically finds and suggests matching transactions, supports transfers and allows notes to be attached to statement lines.
"For many small business owners, checking bank accounts is the first thing they do in the morning. Keeping on top of cash flow is paramount. By reconciling bank data over coffee, at the bus stop, or on the train small businesses take advantage of downtime and can arrive at the office up-to-date on their accounts and cash flow," says Xero Mobile Product Manager Matt Vickers.
Accounting on mobile devices improves cash flow and management of small business accounts on a number of fronts. Bank reconciliation is the latest feature for Xero Touch, which also lets you check on all account balances in one place, send invoices while still in the field, and manage expenses by taking photos of receipts.
"We're now doing things you could never dream of with legacy desktop software," says Vickers. "Getting key accounting features into small business owners' hands, anywhere and at anytime, has completely changed the way people run their business."

Job Savage is upbeat about life. After all, he has lived a long one.
Job Savage is upbeat about life. After all, he has lived a long one. At 99 years old, he can only be described as inspiring and amazing.
He maintains a fitness regime, working out twice a week with a trainer.
He walks slowly but surely. And he can tell a story with such description that you feel you lived it with him.
Born in November 1914, he has traveled the world, written books and dined in the royal palace of Basel, Switzerland, after World War II. Through it all, he has never forgotten his childhood roots or the importance of looking ahead to the future.
Born in Tarboro, Savage lost his mother when he was 8. His father, a farmer emphasized the importance of education.
Savage attended Wake Forest and Louisburg College, where he met fellow student Agnes Chastin of Wilmington. The two married in 1938 and begin a life that would not see them return to Wilmington for nearly six decades.
"World War II was a big part of things," he said. "I volunteered as a candidate for officer training and I moved from Burlington, North Carolina, to Louisiana to Texas to New York, at the Brooklyn Naval Shipyard."
Savage remembers listening to a young unknown singer in a New York City establishment during the war. That singer was Frank Sinatra.
Then overseas duties came. Savage said he served at the formation of the 558th Automatic Weapons Battalion, and he believes that he may be the last surviving member of the battalion.
Savage remained in Europe for six months after the war ended there. In Europe, celebrations were at a high.
As an officer, Savage had the opportunity to spend the night in an ornate palace. The festivities were like nothing he'd ever seen.
Savage returned to Agnes and eventually earning a Ph.D. Agriculture Economics from the University of Wisconsin. He began a long career with the Department of Agriculture that would lead him to more than 40 countries across the globe.
At age 80, Savage finally retired, but he was not ready to sit down.
He has authored three published books ranging from his time in Katmandu to agriculture issues to a detailed family history. His plan is to write an update for his book, "From Tarboro to Katmandu," now available at Amazon.com.
And he believes in fitness. Savage trains twice a week with local Wilmington trainer Paul Sabella. He has always been a big believer in the importance of exercise and says that he has been involved in athletics since he was a young man.
He admits he has slowed down but at 99, he does remarkably well.
"I've always wanted to go to the top as far as I could go and achieve and accomplish as much as possible," Savage said. "I don't believe in giving up."

GH3830, Revised September 2011
Everyone wants enough money to live on. Many people feel they need more.
You can use money to help you get what you want by:
To do this, you must know these things:
Your money can take care of you. It cannot take care of itself. Plan to make your money take care of you.
What is important to you and your family? Each family must make its own plans. Let older children share in the planning.
Use this as a good time to teach older children some important lessons:
Your plans will work better when everyone pulls together. First, think what you want to do. This will help you decide how to use your money.
These worksheets contain fillable forms. You can enter your own information, print and save the files on your computer for future use.
Using Worksheet 1, list the things you want soon and in the future. Find out what each will cost. Think how you will save for things you want later.
These are things you may want or need to do soon:
These are things you may want in the future:
List the things first that you want the most.
Where do you get your money? You may be getting money from only one place. Or maybe you get it from several sources:
Make a list of where you get your money. You may wish to list this weekly, twice a month, monthly or once a year.
List what you make before anything is taken out. Money taken out would be taxes, insurance, union or other dues, social security, retirement or savings.
List money earned by all members of the family. Be sure to list money earned by children too.
Use Worksheet 2 to figure out how much money is coming in.
Use a chart to figure out how you are spending your money each day. (See Worksheet 3, How do you spend your money each day?) Could you make better use of your money? A spending plan might help you
Everyone has basic things like food, housing and clothing. Look at your records. See what your family spends on necessities such as these. This will give you an idea about what future costs will be.
Your records, bills, canceled checks, receipts and whatever else you can remember will also help you plan.
Now you can see why records can help you. They take the guesswork out of planning. Study the list you made in Worksheet 1, What do you and your family want? Will some of these things fit into your spending plan?
Move the total amounts spent for each item in Worksheet 3 (on pages 3 and 4) to the last column of Worksheet 4.
Compare your spending plan with what you actually spent. How did you come out?
Do you have money left over? If so, this is fine. You and your family should be proud of yourselves. Set aside the extra money for the future.
Perhaps you overspent. Many people do. Then the whole family must take another look at the plan.
Have you overspent? Remember the important needs, such as food, a place to live and clothing. Can the costs of these be cut? How much? To cut costs, you might want to
Notice other expenses on your list. What could be left out? What could be put off until later?
Could you increase the amount of money coming in? Some family members may be able to take a second job or work at home.
Now decide what changes you will make.
Keep a notebook handy. Use it to write down what you buy each day. Keep all bills, receipts and business papers together in one place.
Keep older children involved by letting them:
This will help the family understand where the money goes.
All family members old enough to spend money should watch their spending. Are dollars buying what the family wants most?
Are you spending more than you planned to? Are you spending too much on:
Do you have too many:
Remember these important ideas
You can make your money help you have:
But to succeed, you must know these things:
Talk with these people
Attend and visit these resources
Read these often

Clearly, I'm in a video mood today, as well as a dance mood. It therefore seemed entirely appropriate when this video appeared on my Facebook feed. Before you watch, you might want to know what you're seeing:
The type of dance they are performing is called Shag. This phenomenon was found in the 1950s by Billy Jeffers and "Chicken" Hicks in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Shag clubs have sprung up from Baltimore to Miami totaling in over 100 clubs. ShagAtlanta, the club Charlie and Jackie belong to, was established in 1989 with the merger of two metropolitan Atlanta shag clubs, the North Atlanta Beach Club and the Atlanta Beach Club. Each year thousands of shaggers get together for the Shag Festival to celebrate Shag.

A lot has happened on the Duke Basketball front since I was on the road to Indy yesterday. Chris Collins was named the new head coach of Northwestern University and Nate James was promoted to an assistant coach role for the Blue Devils.
Collins more than ready
Collins has been ready to be a head coach in my opinion in that he eats, sleeps and drinks basketball, always watching the NBA or college games and always ready to talk about the game. Northwestern gained a new head coach who has a lot of energy on and off the court but the thing which has impressed me most about Collins was his ability to work on strategy or X's and O's if you will. The high energy he brings to the Wildcats' program should rejuvenate their fan base and here is to hoping they are patient as he builds that program as I feel he will.
James familiar with his role
In the case of James, he's tutored under the best and he will hit the road running, knowing his role from his experience there before. James is popular with both the team and staff and relates well with the players. His work with PG Quinn Cook has proved vital in the sophomores growth this season and his toughness from when he was a player enables him to pass on his experiences.
A return to Indy
As I walked up to Lucas oil Arena this morning, I could not help but be reminded that I have returned to the scene where I saw Duke defeat Butler for the National Championship. From a fan perspective it was as special experience as I have had covering the Duke program and ghosts abound in the arena which help me relive that cherished title run. Many of you will remember our tweets from press row and coverage from Indy and we hope to bring you up close and personal as the games unfold. At some point I may discuss that amazing 2010 team in the next several hours as my goal will be to blog and talk to you in a straight forward manner. As a follower of Blue Devil Nation this weekend, you will see player interviews, pictures and real-time information direct from Indianapolis, so check back often. Our twitter sit is listed as BlueDevilNation and our Facebook open group is under the same name.
Duke will hold their open practice at 3:10 p.m. Coach K will conduct interviews with Dial global, Turner/CBS and the news room today as will selected players. Mason Plumlee was named 2nd team All American by the NABC.

Mike Foligno, a veteran head coach in the Ontario Hockey League, has been named an assistant coach with the Ducks, succeeding Newell Brown. Brown was a Ducks assistant from 1998-2000 and again from 2005 until this week, when his contract was not renewed.
Foligno spent the last seven seasons as head coach and general manager of the Sudbury Wolves, compiling a 189-229-58 record. The Wolves went 26-35-7 last season and made the playoffs for the sixth time in Sudbury's tenure, which included a conference championship in 2006-07.
Foligno has previously served as an assistant coach with the Toronto Maple Leafs (1995-96) and Colorado Avalanche (1997-98). He served as the head coach of the AHL's Hershey Bears from 1998-2003.
"He wanted to come back to the NHL," Ducks general manager Bob Murray said. "I think this was the right time. He's really passionate. He's got charisma. I think he's going to work very well with our forwards."
In a 15-year NHL playing career (1979-94) with Detroit, Buffalo, Toronto and Florida, Foligno collected 355 goals, 727 points and 2,049 penalty minutes in 1,018 games. A right wing, Foligno's best season came with Buffalo in 1985-86, when he scored 41 goals and 80 points in 79 games.
Brown was responsible for running the Ducks' power play, a role Foligno can possibly expect to assume with fellow assistant coach Dave Farrish already in charge of the penalty kill.
