You can dig your bare toes into the sands of Cayo Costa Island and never be distracted by miles of high-rise towers or restaurant crowds gobbling up free space along the shore.
"It's one of the few untouched islands on the west coast," said Linda Potter, a Pineland resident and a "Friends of Cayo Costa State Park" volunteer. "The island is still in its native state. We see it now as the Calusa Indians saw it a thousand years ago. And one of the reasons why I fell in love with this area was because we would come here to Pine Island and always visit Cayo Costa, too."
Like Potter, Margi Nanney of Manatee County, also cherishes this protected barrier island. She immediately fell in love with the seven-mile stretch of rich history, embroidered by sea oats and flora of centuries ago.

Nanney and her husband own a cabin on the island, which is one of only 22 private homes. Their sons spent childhood summers and many holidays, too, throwing a line in the backwater and hiking the peaceful paths made from crushed shells.
"It's the ultimate getaway," Nanney said. "It's a natural environment that's beautiful."
She and her family "have been tent camping across the US, in more than 20 state parks," Nanney said. "But there's still nothing prettier than Cayo Costa."
Records dating back to the early 1500s indicate that Florida's Calusa tribe was discovered by Spanish explorers. Protecting their territories along the west coast, now known as Charlotte and Lee Counties, the tribe may have traveled as far south as the keys. And at one time, their population swelled to 50,000.
When they claimed islands such as Cayo Costa, Calusa Indians were resourceful and comfortable with their environment along the ocean's shore. They constructed homes on stilts and wove Palmetto leaves into natural blankets of shelter from unforgiving sunshine as well as heavy downpours. Other tribes farmed the land in their territories, but the Calusa tribe fished along coastal waters. Instead of planting crops in sand, they created fishing nets with palm tree webbing and spearheads from shells found on the shallow ocean floor or shore line.
By the late 1700s, enemy tribe attacks reduced the strength of the proud Calusa tribe. Dangerous afflictions, such as Measles and Small Pox, brought to the Southwest coast by Spanish and French explorers, furthered the death of the tribe.
But their amazing skills are celebrated often at Cayo Costa State Park.
Volunteers like Potter and Nanney are committed to keeping the island's yesterday intact. Another goal is to protect these pristine stretches of sand and vegetation so the history of the island is just as authentic for future generations.
"We are a small group, but we very determined," Nanney said of Friends of Cayo Costa. "We want future generations to enjoy the island in the same way we enjoy it."
Proceeds from the Cayo Costa Heritage Day event benefit limited budgets of park rangers while volunteers also hope to enhance educational tours and reading materials about the island's history.

According to the Norwegian meterological institute, the answer is that it is best to run. According to Mythbusters (quoted in the comments to that article), the answer is that it is best to walk.
My guess would be that this is something that can be properly modelled mathematically and solved. I suspect that I'm not alone in making a start on this, but as it's usually during a rainstorm that I think of it, I don't get far before deciding that the best strategy is to call a taxi!
I would also guess that someone has already done this and figured out the answer. If I'm right about that, I would like to read about it and learn what the real answer is. Thus my question is most likely: can someone provide a reference for this?
(If I'm wrong that it's already been solved, then some pointers as to how to solve it or even an explanation of what the main issues are, would be most interesting.)
As well as simply satisfying my curiosity, this is also one of those questions that non-mathematicians often ask (or at least, that non-mathematicians can easily understand the motivation for the question) so if there's a reasonable answer then it would be a good way to show off some mathematics.
Update This question has a long and curious history. There's a discussion about it at the meta site: http://mathoverflow.tqft.net/discussion/90/question-about-walking-in-the-rain

Out of nowhere my little sweet tooth became a giant sweet tooth and came up with the brilliant idea to combine cookies, cupcakes and buttercream frosting all into one bite sized treat!
I'm not going to lie, the fat kid inside of me absolutely LOVED this idea! Nutter Butter Bites and Mini Oreos as the base topped with Vanilla Cupcake Batter mixed with MORE Oreo cookie and topped with MORE cookie bites! Yes, this is one indulgent treat that your
little giant sweet tooth is not going to be able to resist!
Ingredients (makes 72 mini cupcakes)
- 3 cups flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 cup butter (softened)
- 2 cups sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 tbsp vanilla
- 2 cups mini Oreos
- 1 cup Nutter butter bites
Start by lining a mini muffin tin with cupcake liners.
Next, twist apart 1 cup of the mini Oreos and all of the Nutter butter bites, placing the half with the icing into the bottom of a mini muffin tin, icing side up. Separate the other half into 2 separate bowls for Oreos and Nutter butters (reserve for later use).
After all the cups are filled, it should look like this ↓
Now make the cupcake batter. Start by combining the flour and baking powder in a medium bowl.
Next combine the softened butter and sugar in a large mixing bowl. Add in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Then add the vanilla and mix. Next, alternate adding in the milk and flour mixture. Mix for 3-4 minutes or until super creamy.
Place the remaining 1 cup of Oreos in a food processor then add to the cupcake batter.
I'm not going to lie to y'all, I really wanted to just grab a spoon and eat straight out of the bowl at this point… but I didn't… I blended the Oreos in and continued the cupcake making process! Ok, maybe one spoonful… let me correct myself, makes 71 mini cupcakes 😉
I all of a sudden have a serious craving for Cookies and Cream Ice Cream! Go away giant sweet tooth, there are not enough hours in the day to work out as much as you would require me to if I listened to you all the time!
So back to Cookie Cupcake making, the batter is now ready to pour on top of the cookie base. I suggest pouring the batter into a large Ziploc bag and cutting a small hole in the corner to pipe out the batter into the muffin tins. Unfortunately I do not have enough hands to maneuver this as well as a camera, so hopefully my description paints a nice little picture of this step!
Now place the cupcakes in the oven at 350° for 10-12 minutes.
Browned to perfection. Now it's time to make the Buttercream Frosting.
- 1 cup butter (softened)
- 8 cups powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 tbsp vanilla
Combine all of the ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Mix on medium speed for 3-5 minutes.
Use a piping bag with decorating tip to frost the mini cupcakes then place the reserved halves of the Mini Oreos and Nutter Butter Bites on top of each cupcake.
The perfect party platter dessert!

The Blackbeard/
Guest post by Sean Lorre, PhoBlograpHusband.
Hello Readers! It's been quite a while since I last guest posted. As a matter of fact exactly four months, or in other words one semester of grad school. To my dismay, my writing and research of late has more to do with the Blues Brothers, Randy Weston and Fred Astaire than bars and cocktails. OK, it's not such a bad gig, but I did miss the rigorous mixological testing required to write a post!
Today I bring you the Blackbeard, a cocktail I've only found in one bar, once, more than fifteen years ago. Picture it if you will: My 21-year-old self, along with a certain friend I will only identify by his initials (TMO) are whiling the Spring 1997 semester away in London as part of the Syracuse University International Live Abroad and Pretend to Study Program. Spring break comes and we're off to Edinburgh, Scotland to meet up with my friend Andy, a true Scotsman -- gregarious, burly (former national U-19 rugby player), and generous to a fault -- who I met while working as a camp counselor the year before.
After a long evening of carousing and paradin' about the city, Andy suggests that we drive out to his hometown of Musselburgh for a nightcap at his local pub. TMO and I have never passed up a free drink in our lives, so we consent to the 10km trek in search of the perfect end to the evening. And found it we did! It was on this night that I was introduced to the Blackbeard, perhaps the most perfect last drink I've ever had.
The Blackbeard
1 1/2 ounces Kraken Black Spiced Rum
5 ounces homemade cola
about 2 ounces Guinness Stout
Mix Kraken and cola in a Imperial half-pint glass (or whatever 10 ounce-ish glass you happen to have on hand), top with Guinness (from a tap if you can, if not the draft cans/bottles will do fine).
Tasting notes
The original Blackbeard calls for Captain Morgan, Coke and Guinness, but we just couldn't resist trying a few substitutions. We found the Kraken added a depth to the flavor that the Capt. couldn't muster (while keeping the pirate theme in place) and the homemade cola... well, that stuff makes everything better!
So just why is this fairly odd-sounding, Frankencocktail a great way to end a night of drinking? Why have I been bugging bartenders for years to recreate this for me? I've never really been able to really pick apart just what it is... I think perhaps it has just the right mix of creamy texture (from the Guinness), sweetness (from the Coke) and kick (from the rum) that has something to do with it. What I do know is, that when made right, the Blackbeard leaves you with a warm, content, time-to-take-the-last-train-home feeling.

text: Pool Accessary Options. Types of Pool Water Sanitation. There are a variety of pool water treatment options beyond the traditional chlorine, although it remains the most popular option. Chlorine is added to a pool to combat algae or other bacteria that can gather in the water. Chlorinated water relies on a proper pH balance to prevent an overly chemical-smelling pool. While saline pools, also known as saltwater pools, are not chlorine-free, they consist of a salt-chlorine generator that produces lower levels of chlorine. Mineral water pools are chlorine-free and use disinfecting minerals to prevent bacteria and algae. Pool Maintenance.

The battles that Peyton Manning and Tom Brady have had over the years have been some of the best in NFL history.
Sunday in New England, the rivalry between the two takes on a twist, as Manning will have a new uniform on when he enters Brady's home as the Broncos take on the Patriots in a late afternoon affair.
The battle between the 2-2 teams looks a lot different than last seasons playoff game when Brady threw six TD's and the Broncos were dominated by the Pats as they headed home for the year after the loss.
Now with Manning, the Broncos are coming off a huge home win over the Raiders, and they will try to keep up the momentum, which won't be easy after Brady and company came out of nowhere to put up 45 second half points in a win over the Bills.

Congrats to Leah Messer? At the tender age of 19, the Teen Mom 2 star is pregnant once again and gearing up for her second marriage according to UsWeekly and E! News.
In fact, Leah's new fiancé Jeremy Calvert confirmed the news to the all new Reality Weekly magazine.
"Yes, Leah is having my baby!" Jeremy tells Reality Weekly via the Hollywood Life. "I was at work when Leah called to tell me. She'd gotten blood work done and it came back positive. At first I was kind of surprised — but I was happy."
Jeremy, 22, goes on to reveal he proposed to Leah on Dec. 25. "We got engaged on Christmas Day," he states. "I bought an ornament for the tree that said 'Engaged' with both our names on it and the date. And when I saw Leah looking at it, that's when I gave her the ring. It's a 1.5 princess-cut diamond."
As for Leah's ex-husband/father of her twin girls Corey Simms, Jeremy reveals all is well between all parties. "We both get along with Corey," Jeremy shared. "We drop the kids off and we talk. It works." Indeed, Corey's new girlfriend Summer Tavarez recently revealed that "Corey likes Jeremy a lot."
Jeremy adds that he feels Leah will make a great mother and wife. "Nothing ever gets Leah down," he says. "She stands strong for the kids. And I know that no one is better to have as your kids' mother than Leah."
Leah and Jeremy started dating last August. This would be Leah's third child (she is the mother of two-year-old twins Aliannah and Aleeah). Leah filed from divorce from Corey last April after only six months of marriage.
I'm sorry but personally, I find this to be quite tragic. This has disaster written all over it. A possible two marriages and three kids all at the age of 19? What happened to just being a teenager and enjoying life? I'm guessing the pregnancy came first and then the
shot-gun engagement. Wowzers.
Below is another picture of Leah and Jeremy with her twins.

As I am writing this, my excitement is becoming greater and greater to begin this journey. For now, I will give you some background to perhaps trigger your excitement too. My chase begins on April 8, 2012, with departure to the Titanic Memorial Cruise.
This once in a lifetime journey, commemorating the Titanic's tragic voyage in 1912, will follow the Titanic's original itinerary. We will be passing Cherbourg, France (where Margaret Brown first embarked), stopping in Cobh (Queenstown in 1912), and crossing the Atlantic to arrive at the site where the Titanic sank for the 100-year anniversary of this tragic event. Here, a memorial service will be held to pay tribute to the passengers and crew who perished on that fateful night. Our journey will be somewhat longer than Titanic's, as the itinerary will differ in two ways from Titanic's original plan. The ship will not stop at Cherbourg (though we will pass by), and after crossing the Atlantic it will stop in Halifax, Nova Scotia, where hundreds of recovered Titanic victims are buried. The ship will then end its voyage in New York City, as Titanic itself was scheduled to do.
While on board, there will be lectures by well-known Titanic authors and experts, including several who actually dove to the ships' underwater resting place. There will be descendants of Titanic passengers who will be sharing their loved ones experiences and I hope to have the opportunity to share Margaret Brown's experiences while on board.
Passengers from all over the world will be on this memorial cruise living out their own personal fascination of the Titanic 100 years later. It is said the Titanic carried passengers from many different countries as well. It is hard to say how many there were but most official lists provide no breakdown by nationality beyond British and Non-British.

Hi, Jacee and a Happy New Year to you! I know what you mean about losing the 'magic' of all these celebrations, they are all just so commercialised these days - it's why I've made a promise to myself to make a lot of my presents this year and try to give it a more personal touch! We have no excuse really, being creative and I've noticed that a lot of it is in the presentation, so I'll be spending a lot more time on Pinterest for ideas!
Love your sassy card with the animal print papers and girly image! Hugs, Lisa x

Sad to say, our USA craft stores start in June showing Christmas stuff even before the Halloween decorations are out. Don't think I've seen Easter here yet, but Valentine & St Pat's are everywhere. I'm loving this cute dimensional card, and great design to add your bathing beauty to the fishtail die. Some great combination of dp patterns added a lot of detail & interest. Loved it! TFS & Happy Wkend. Happy New Year if I didn't already say it here!!!

A funny thing happened on the way to another weekend of national scorn and ridicule.
The Raiders dominated the NFL draft.
OK, "dominate" is probably too strong, because no one really knows how a draft class is going to be for a few years down the road. But considering the abuse they've taken over the past few years, much of it justified, most who watched as a fan or critic were of the opinion the Raiders had three good days.
Three very good days.
Tom Cable's talk about "championships" remains a reach, but at least it's not ludicrous any more.
The fact is, if Rolando McClain is a middle linebacker who even approaches the level of a rookie Ray Lewis or Patrick Willis, if Lemarr Houston can provide a stout end to turn runners inside, if Jared Veldheer or Bruce Campbell can add something to the offensive line, and most importantly, if Jason Campbell elevates the art of quarterback all the way to above average, the Raiders have the look of a .500 team.
And once you're a .500 team, you're only a break or two away from 10 wins.
People rolled their eyes at the Raiders on Wednesday. By Saturday, they were something to be taken seriously.
Seldom was heard a discourging word from the endless procession of talking heads on ESPN and the NFL Network, many of them prefacing their comments with a qualifier such as, "I can't believe I'm saying this, but . . . "
Since he took over has head coach, Cable has wanted to get rid of negativity. He's talked about in press conferences. He's talked to reporters informally about it, wondering why doom and gloom is so prevalent. My response has been it's a reflection of the won-loss record over the past seven years, and that it wasn't going to go away until the Raiders changed things on the field.
Well, the Raiders, for the time being, did what I didn't think was possible. They cast themselves in a positive light with what appears to be sound and decisive personnel moves.
In the cocoon of the Raiders draft room, Cable isn't yet fully cognizant the negativity has ground to a halt.
"For awhile I've said at some point things will start to change," Cable said. "If that's the feeling out there it would be second to the feeling in that draft room."
A skeptic can still find fault.
What if McClain isn't any better than Derrick Johnson, the linebacker the Chiefs thought would change their defense in 2005?
Or that Houston is one of those Texas players who doesn't take the next step in the NFL.
If Veldheer can't make the gigantic leap from Hillsdale to the AFC West, and Bruce Campbell is one of those "looks like Tarzan, plays like Jane" types, then Jason Campbell will find himself taking a beating, the passing game will falter, and, well, you know the rest.
But the bad vibes are for another time.
Oakland has made a run at shoring up problem areas, and instead of reaching for "numbers" players like kick returner Jacoby Ford and Bruce Campbell too high, the Raiders took their shot in reasonable rounds. Veteran linebacker Kamerion Wimbley cost a third-round pick and Quintin Groves a fifth, both reasonable moves for talented players at not much cost.
Topping it all off, Jason Campbell, while not an elite NFL quarterback, was a 64.5 percent passer for a struggling Washington team and although he had 15 interceptions last year, has been pretty good at avoiding turnovers.
His arrival means Al Davis has taken a realistic view of JaMarcus Russell, which in turn will boost the spirits of the fan base. Campbell is scheduled to make $3.1 million this year on the tender he signed in Washington, and was extended for another $4.5 million next year. He's not here to sit.
Campbell is far better idea than either an aging Donovan McNabb or the toxic Ben Roethlisberger, and it came at almost zero cost _ a fourth-round draft pick two years from now.
All the rumors about fire sales and the perception of a a franchise hopelessly adrift, and Davis did more good things in a short period than at any time in recent memory.
It wasn't perfect, because it never is.
"You can always do better. I'm sure after we have some time reflect on it, we'll look at it and say, `Man, I wish we could've done this or that," Cable said. "But shoot, man. That's a heck of a draft for the Raiders. It really is, and you can put some check marks to some very important issues on this football team."

I have to admit, I was kind of was nervous to meet Ian Ziering in person. Remember what a dill weed Steve Saunders from 90210 was?
The great news is that acting is just pretend and in real life, Ian Ziering is darling. The tall, blond hunk stopped by Cosmo to talk about his new gig as the guest host at Chippendales in Las Vegas. As I needled him to open up about his ripped body, stripping style and duck-face, he mostly wanted to talk about his wife and kids. Cute Ian, but I'm here to report on the important stuff: Do you take off your pants in the show or what? Below, I use every trick in the book to get this smokin' hawt family man to give me the dirty details.
Cosmo: How did you feel when you got an offer from Chippendales?
Ian: I thought it was a joke when my agent called me! I didn't even know these opportunities existed. The first thing I did was ask my wife, "Are you okay with this? There's gonna be screaming women and bachelorette parties and sexy dancing." She just said, "Go for it, Magic Ian." She's the best.
Cosmo: She sounds rad. Were you nervous about performing with the most famous male erotic dance show in the world?
Ian: I wasn't self-conscious about any of the moves I would have to do but I was definitely worried about standing on stage with these guys who are 6'5 and 240 pounds of sculpted marble. It's pretty daunting to take your shirt off next to these Adonises. That really sent me back to the gym and back to my diet.
Cosmo: What guilty pleasure food do you miss most right now?
Ian: Easy! Movie popcorn. I can walk past a movie theater and smell it from a mile away and literally my mouth will water. I've been so strict with my diet that I will actually go into a movie theater, buy popcorn and just smell it. I will chew gum and smell the popcorn so I feel like I'm eating it. It satiates my desire because you can taste it through your nose.
Cosmo: You're joking.
Ian: It's so stupid and ridiculous but it works.
Cosmo: That sh*t cray. Did you invent that?
Ian: I don't know anyone else who would admit to that, so I guess I did invent that.
Cosmo: Wow. Can you drink beer or wine on your diet?
Ian: Nope. Listen, I like beer and pizza and all that stuff but I'm gonna do whatever it takes to achieve my goal. I wake up every morning and look in the mirror and I'm starting to see the six pack show up. There's actually an eight-pack there! Some people are alright with a four pack or a six pack, but you know...
Cosmo: You will smell popcorn until you see that eight pack!
Ian: I'm going to the mountain.
Cosmo: Do you ever practice your moves at home in the mirror?
Ian: Oh, definitely.
Cosmo: Do you do duck-face?
Ian: No way!
Cosmo: You don't make sexy-face when you dance?
Ian: Nah, I don't take myself too seriously with all this hunk stuff. It's flattering but I'm just trying to have a good time.
Cosmo: How much clothing do you and the dancers take off? Is everyone in tighty whities by the end?
Ian: Some of the men get there. There's one particular scene where the guys are just wearing underwear and socks like in Risky Business. But as far as getting down to my tighty whities, you're just going to have to come to the show and see for yourself.
Cosmo: Go to Vegas to watch hot men take off their clothes to pop music? Fiiiiiiiine.
Ian Ziering's limited engagement at the Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas runs from June 6-30th.

Hesh writes "The University of Southern California has launched a website that contains the blueprints for many of their custom VR headsets as well as new mods to the much anticipated yet unreleased Oculus Rift. Some are helping push DIY VR forward through custom sensor mounts to support, for example, stereo cameras and others add more functionality like new eye cups to help increase the already large FOV of the headset. This is truly an exciting time for VR; by GDC, developers will already have Rifts in hand and tinkerers can 3D-print their own designs now as well!"

Here are 5 behaviors Black women tend to participate in more frequently than other female counterparts which perpetuate this staggering economic gap:
1. We treat boyfriends like husbands. We won't get on how many different ways this behavior is detrimental, but speaking financially, co-signing on loans and entering long-term agreements with someone who has not even attempted to commit to you on a long term basis is ridiculous. More times than not, Black women are left with the debt of a brother who has moved on and is driving his new girlfriend around in the car you still have to pay the note on.
2. We don't know how to say, "NO!" We tend to be givers by nature, but unfortunately we give until the point of self-deprivation. First to the church, then to bills and then to relatives and friends who have no means of paying us back. We believe that we are "helping" everyone around us from trifling siblings to grown children, but really we are enabling the people we love the most, not to mention damaging our own financial futures. Remember, the worst thing you can do for a broke person is become one of them!
Related Post: Is The Black Church Really To Blame?
3. We make our hair and nails a top priority. As Black women, being fly is definitely a priority, but can this be done on some type of budget? Are the nails with all the intricate designs that add an additional $10 to every pedicure really that important? Imagine what could happen if we rocked hairstyles and manicures that were less flashy and something we could maintain on our own in between appointments.
4. We buy children name brand clothing. Why should any infant or toddler be Gucci'd down? Children will not die from not having Baby Phat symbols across their chest. Name brand clothing is to impress your friends and strangers on the street who, quite frankly, really could care less. If you shopped at stores like Target, think of all the money you could actually put into that child's college fund!
5. We care too much about what our car looks like. Many of us are the first to graduate from college in our families and we want to make sure that everybody from the 'hood knows that "we've made it!" What's the easiest way to show this? A big flashy car that we can't even afford to replace a tire on. If you can't afford the maintenance on a vehicle, especially the preventative maintenance, then you can't afford the car. It's really that simple!
It's time for Black women to wake up and pay attention to what's really important in life. What's the point in looking like a million bucks, when you're barely worth a hundred?
Until Next Time,
Seek Wisdom, Find Wealth & Be Blessed!

The minister of tourism in Egypt Hisham Zaazoo said very interesting statements last Monday's night on Tahrir TV channel.
He said that there was no fear on beach tourism from Islamist parties like Al Nour Party and Freedom and Justice Party. He also stated that there is no problem to start having hotels for men and hotels for women only if politics forced us to do so !!!
I do not know what to say except this segregation will not appeal to anyone ironically except gays !!! I can not believe it !! What kind of political reasons can force us to segregate between women and men in hotels !! ok what about families !?
I will be kind and say that the man was speaking about segregated beaches , still it will be controversial.
I am quite shocked that this talk comes from tourism expert veteran like Hisham Zaazoo would say such statements that would really harm tourism.

HP Server


text:
The dev server allows you to update your Chromium OS machine with new builds without having to copy them via a USB drive. It also serves as a static file repository, allowing you to install your own packages and scripts making it easy to customize your machine for development purposes.
Note: Every time you create a Chromium OS build, the URL of the dev server corresponding to your development machine is put into
Starting the Dev Server
Note: Before you start the dev server, you must have already run
The first step in using the dev server is starting the web server on your development machine:
cd ~/chromiumos/; cros_sdk # if not already in the chroot
Using the Dev Server
You can use the dev server in three ways:
Setting up your image to allow gmerge to modify it
By default, the rootfs image is built with verification enabled. This prevents gmerge from writing to it to update it. To get around this build the rootfs image using the following option (NOTE: if you followed the instructions in the Chromium OS Developer Guide, you already did this):
./build_image --noenable_rootfs_verification ...
How to update
Updating replaces everything on the root filesystem of your test machine with your latest build on your development machine. This replaces the process of copying the full image to a usb key and re-running
To update:
update_engine_client --update
Note: You can also specify a different url than you built with here using --omaha_url=<url>.
If everything went well, this will have updated the root filesystem (/dev/sda3 or /dev/sda5) and the kernel partition (/dev/sda2 or /dev/sda4). If you have development tools you would also like to see updated (in chromeos-dev or chromeos-test), or if you use gmerge (see below), you should also update your stateful partition. To do so, then run:
sudo stateful_update
Note: This will update your /usr/local/bin and /var directories. It will not affect the other directories on your stateful partition (e.g. will not overwrite your home directories).
Now your system should be fully updated and you can restart to see the changes.
Other options
Note that by default the devserver serves the latest image and runs on port 8080. You can change this among many other things. Here is a brief description of some of the options. Please see
How to customize your image with dev packages
By default build_packages and build_image both have the --withdev flag enabled, so dev packages will be build and installed in your image.
How to build a single package and install it without doing a full update
If you want to make a change to a single package and install it on your target machine, you can use the
gmerge tool.
gmerge runs on your target machine and contacts your devserver to build packages. For instance, let's say you made a change to shill and you want to re-install it on your machine. On your test machine, run:
sudo gmerge shill
This will kick off a build (emerge) of the
shill package on your development machine, transfer it to your test machine, and use emerge to install it. If you have already built the package on your development machine and just want to install it, you can use the -n flag to avoid the build step.
sudo gmerge -n shill
This works for just about any package that is available in portage and can be very convenient for installing packages that are not part of the default install or even the dev install.
In order to protect you from a frustrating error case,
You can pass USE= and FEATURES= environment variables to gmerge just like you can on the host. (This is a change from older versions, which used --use= arguments). For example, you can run:
gmerge cromo
Building Chrome Locally and using Gmerge
If you'd like to build chrome from source, you can still use the dev server. All you need to do is declare a few variables before starting the dev server:
export CHROME_ORIGIN="LOCAL_SOURCE" USE="-build_tests"
NOTE: be sure to run the devserver from within the chroot. While normally you may start it outside of the chroot (and it'll enter the chroot automatically), exported environment variables aren't propagated into the chroot when you do that.
Now on your device just run:
sudo gmerge chromeos-base/chromeos-chrome
Another useful USE flag is "-runhooks" which will not run the gclient hooks each time. While this step is a smaller percentage of the total time needed to do an incremental build, it is unncessary for doing incremental builds if you haven't changed any resources, or made changes to the Chrome gyp configuration.
Use flags can directly be passed to gmerge, so you can do:
USE="-build_tests -runhooks" gmerge chromeos-chrome
Common Tasks
To download and run functional tests, see http://www.chromium.org/chromium-os/testing
Using Devserver to Stage and Serve Artifacts from Google Storage
A running devserver listens for calls to its stage and xbuddy rpcs.
Stage rpc
An abbreviated version of the documentation for the stage rpc is copied here, but the up to date version can be found by going to host:port/doc/stage on any running devserver.
Downloads and caches the artifacts Google Storage URL. Returns once these have been downloaded on the devserver. A call to this will attempt to cache non-specified artifacts in the background for the given from the given URL following the principle of spatial locality. Spatial locality of different artifacts is explicitly defined in the build_artifact module. These artifacts will then be available from the static/ sub-directory of the devserver.
To download the autotest and test suites tarballs:
To download the full update payload:
To download just a file called blah.bin:
xBuddy rpc
Feature Requests
There are many things that can be done to improve this system. Feel free to make suggestions and submit patches.

COLUMBUS, Ga. – The No. 15 Georgia College men's tennis team (13-6, 4-4 PBC) could not keep their winning streak alive Sunday afternoon, dropping a match at No. 13 Columbus State University (11-3, 4-2 PBC), 9-0. The shutout loss snaps a four-match win streak, and is the first shutout loss since falling to Armstrong Atlantic Feb. 20.
The Bobcats found themselves in a quick 3-0 hole after doubles. With the absence of Leo Bernardes (Sao Paulo, Brazil), the Bobcats decided to mix it up in doubles. Tyler Franks (Greensboro, Ga.) and Johan Wadstein (Helsingborg, Sweden) played out of the No. 1 spot, losing to No. 12 Christophe Noblet and Gordan Divljak, 8-5. Jerome Leborgne (Coordimanche, France) and Robert Angelucci (Acworth, Ga.) played in the second spot for the first time this season, losing to No. 22 Martin Shishkov and Filip Cojbasic, 9-8.
In third doubles action, Tobias Rausch (Mannheim, Germany) and Wictor Andersson (Karlskoga, Sweden) lost a heartbreaker to Hendrik Paetzel and Andre Mordhorst, 9-8.
Singles action did not get any more promising for the Bobcats. No. 52 Noblet ran past Jerome Leborgne, 6-1, 6-0 snapping his winning streak of six games. Divljak defeated Wadstein in a three set marathon, 6-2, 1-6, 6-3. After winning the first set 6-3, Rausch eventually fell in three sets to Mordhorst, 3-6, 6-3, 6-2.
Franks fell to Shishkov, 6-1, 6-3 and Andersson was edged out by Olivier Simonet, 6-4, 7-5. Angelucci played out of the sixth spot and lost his bout to Danilo Sardelli, 6-4, 6-2.
Up next, the GC men travel to Anderson University Friday, April 8 for a 2 p.m. start.
The Georgia College Department of Athletics, back-to-back winners of the PBC Commissioner's Cup, sponsors 10 varsity athletic programs at the NCAA Division II level. As a Division II program, Bobcat Athletics prides itself on balancing the life of the student-athlete, evidenced by the teams' multiple appearances in post-season competition as well as documented academic success and community-service involvement.

Overton disqualified midway through Colonial 3rd round after using a putting aid between holes
FORT WORTH, Texas – Jeff Overton was disqualified midway through the third round of the Colonial on Saturday for illegally using a putting aid during play.
PGA Tour officials say Overton used an aid on a nearby practice green after playing the ninth hole while waiting to tee off at No. 10.
Going to the practice area is permissible during a round, but use of artificial or instructional devices isn't. The penalty is disqualification.
Rules official Mark Russell says it's unfortunate but that the rule is "clear as day."
Overton was 4 under for the tournament, seven strokes off the lead, when a PGA Tour official approached Overton after he teed off at the 11th hole. Russell says another player had asked officials about the use of the device.

Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords – Druid FAQ

Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords
Version 1.2
-----Table of Contents------
1 Introduction
2 Spell List
3 Strategy Guide
4 Legal
5 Contact Info
The purpose of this guide is to demonstrate how to create a Druid that can
kill on the first turn. I know of only one way to do this, and that is by
focusing on Air Mastery and utilizing a combo to fill your Mana so you can cast
Death Gaze. If this strategy doesn't appeal to you, or you just want to have
fun figuring the game out yourself, wait until after you finish the game to
read this. The real fun of this game comes from raising a character capable of
defeating the game's boss, and maybe a few of your friends too.
This guide also gives you a formula to follow as you play the game. Use it
when you get stuck, but don't feel obligated to follow it step by step. Play
the game and try to figure it out yourself. It is more rewarding and fun that
way. You can achieve the same end result many ways. There are only a few
guidelines that you should follow:
- Your level up points should only go into Air Mastery and Earth Mastery, with
Earth Mastery ending up no higher than around 65.
- When given the chance to keep an item or return it in a quest, keep in mind
that your final equipment set will be all forged (made by you).
- when you get the chance, go ahead and be an Elenian Knight for the Earth
Mastery bonus.

--------Strategy Guide--------
Opening Strategy:
The first thing you should do in a fight is to look carefully at the board.
Look for 4 of a kind or 5 of a kind matches that you can make. Some are simple
like the ones you see the AI do, others are a little tougher to spot.
Try to look for patterns like these to get 4/5 of a kinds when there aren't
any simple ones. Do you best to get the most out of every turn. But don't focus
all of your attention on the board. Your spells are where the real strategy
comes in.
Use Gemberry or Forest Fire to pass the turn when the only moves give the
advantage to the opponent (such as setting up 4 of a kind or skulls matches).
The AI will never make an illegal move, even if it costs the game. Otherwise
take all 4/5 of a kinds, then take skull matches. Try casting Calm to keep
annoying status ailments from hurting you and buffs from helping the opponent.
Don't get discouraged when you lose, just keep at it and you'll continue
getting experience.
Next: Build a Dungeon and a Temple
Pay 1250 gold at your citadel to build a Dungeon and a Temple. After defeating
a specific enemy 3 times, you will be able to capture monsters which will add
spells and mounts to your arsenal. As an added bonus, monsters you capture are
instantly defeated, making powered up quest monsters a snap to beat. The Temple
will let you pay gold to improve your attributes. Buy these two only to stay on
the fast track.
Which mount you choose isn't really that important, but having one can give you
more options and something else to fool around with. I like the Giant Rat early
on simply because Rabid Bite does 4 damage using the colors that Forest Fire
doesn't, which helps against resistances. And it causes Plague, which can be
stacked 4 times reducing the opponents Mana by 1 every turn, adding to the
strategy of weakening the opponent before attacking.
Wolf is the mount I suggest for later as Howl is very good in some of your
toughest match-ups. Howl causes Fear, which cuts your opponent's skill levels
in half for several turns. This is critical against Mana Nodes and resistances
stemming from high Morale, as with a Knight (human) opponent.
Either way, try to find one that raises your Air or Earth Mastery and level
them when you can.
Early Strategies:
Begin familiarizing yourself with your spells and how they work. You are going
to come across enemies like Trolls and Orcs that use only one particular type
of Mana. Focus on keeping that type from them to maintain control of the game.
Prevent enemies with high battle level from getting skull matches. Start your
turn looking for 4/5 of a kind matches, then look for skulls and Mana the enemy
needs. The key is to take away the opponent's weapons, then switch to offense
via Forest Fire.
2nd goal: Get Mirror Gear and Troll Ring
You start with a weak offense, and you won't come across any great offensive
weapons for a while, so you have to hurt enemies with your defense. First you
need to build a temple and raise your battle to 4. Then buy and equip a Troll
Ring, Mirror Armor and Mirror Helm as you come across them. Keep an eye out for
the Greater Troll Ring as well. Remember to check the shop after every battle
and save all your money for these items.
New Strategy:
Tougher enemies are going to try to take advantage of your uneven development.
This will test you patience and perseverance. Actively work to avoid Mana
Drain by taking matches near the top first and using Gust of Wind. Try to use
Entangle as effectively as possible, like setting up 4/5 of a kind and skulls
matches. Also, don't let the enemy match skulls. Pay attention to what color
you need and go for that first. Primarily, you will be keeping weapons from the
enemy while building your Mana base. Take any good moves that show up, then
cast Gemberry or Forest Fire to avoid giving them any. Your health will go up
while their's goes down.
Next: Dugog
This boss will be your most difficult obstacle in the entire game. Your
character is extremely weak and he will have no mercy. You may have to grind
out a few levels to win. Fight him as you would an Orc or Ogre; play
defensively and keep Fire and skulls away from him. He gets an extra turn when
he matches gold as well, so there's another concern. Finally, he has a Troll
Ring equipped and lots of health, meaning a long fight. You'll probably lose
this fight several times. Don't fret, just go back to your citadel and check
the shop. If you get bored, go ahead and battle the random monsters that show
up for experience.
Post-Dugog Strategies:
With Dugog out of the way, you just completed this game's rite of passage. You
are understanding how the game works and learning to improvise. You should
by now have the Mirror Helm, Mirror Armor and Greater Troll Ring. With your
high levels in Air and Earth Masteries the spell Entangle should be becoming
more useful. Have you noticed that the Troll Ring activates after every lost
turn? Utilizing these items will be the key to getting through the rough parts
of Druid development.
Next: Wightblade
I highly recommend this weapon for the fights ahead. It drains Red Mana from
the enemy and gives it to you as Blue, supporting the Troll Ring while
stalling the opponent. Wightblade requires Water Mastery level 6 to equip so
spend your money (not your points) leveling that up. There are other good
options like Erik's Bow that can give you more power in exchange for control.
Try both and work on your own angle. Note that the Wightblade will become
obsolete around level 20, so hang on to Erik's Bow.
Next: Forge
Whether or not you chose to go with the Wightblade as your weapon, your next
goal is to buy all the stuff in your citadel. The Forge won't be important
until a little later, but you need to buy this in order to get the Siege
Workshop. But since you got it, you might as well take advantage of it. Those
points on the map that look like little huts now have runes you can get to
make great equipment. You'll have to fight for them, though. A Runekeeper
guards every rune, and they are tougher than normal enemies.
Next: Capturing Cities
Time for the Siege Workshop. This will allow you to capture cities, with two
great benefits. You can access your citadel and every so often get money from
these cities. This is the most efficient way of making money, so capture all
you can. Focus especially on cities you walk over often. If you find yourself
at a particular city several times or one with lots of side quests, capture it
early and start making money.
For those cities that have a Mana Node in their accessory slot, you will need
a special strategy to capture them. For now just avoid those and focus on
advancing the story and filling out the map.
Guidelines Reminder:
- No skill points should go into anything but Air and Earth Mastery.
- Earth Mastery should go no higher than 65.
- Quest items that can be kept are almost always more beneficial to return.
Next: Entangle and Forest Fire
Stop putting points in Earth Mastery after you get it to about level 35. Air
will be most important from this point up until you learn Death Gaze. A solid
strategy is to Entangle and then use Forest Fire over and over. Once you feel
you can take a punch from an enemy, store up your Mana and try to burn them out
Next: Dragonhorn of Stone
This forged accessory is next up on our list. You'll need the Rune of Dragons,
Rune of Music, and Rune of Earth. The Rune of Dragons is at Dragon Valley
north of Dhun-Kor. The Rune of Music is at Hornburg, the site of the Mechataur
quest. If you haven't gotten that far yet, you'll be there soon, so watch for
them. This item will supply you with huge amounts of Mana, so you can finally
take off that Troll Ring. Don't throw it away just yet, some battles may be
easier with it, so hang on to it in case you need it again.
Tips on Forging:
The Dragonhorn and some of the other gear you will be forging later might be a
little tough at first, but there are a few things that might help.
- The best thing you can do is to match 3 anvils. This gets rid of 3 at a time
and reduces your chances of a bad restart.
- Using +5 skulls to blow up an anvil is next best, especially if you can
manage to get more than one.
- Lining up 4/5 of a kind is the last way, and the toughest. Just make sure you
don't run out of matches.
Next: Entangle and Gust of Wind
These two spells are critical in the later part of the game. They are only
really effective after you have a certain amount of Mana, which is why Earth
and Air need to be so high. You get the most out of Entangle when it makes the
enemy miss 3 or more turns, meaning you need at least 40 green when you cast
it. To get your max that high, you should have leveled up Earth to about level
35 by now. It can be higher than that, but it doesn't need to be. Gust of Wind
needs lots and lots of yellow, so raise Air Mastery to as high as you can. It
begins to show promise at around level 65. Even at this early stage, you can
start experimenting with this combo by using Entangle, then Gust of Wind 2 or 3
times. You'll get some matches, maybe skulls, and an occasional Heroic Effort.
It's pretty strong but stalls out quickly without the Dragonhorn.
Dealing with Resistances:
Many of the later enemies have resistances. They cancel your spell and you lose
your turn. From 1% to 15% will be an annoyance, but there will be some with
around 16% to 30%. For this reason you need to balance your spells so that
you have some sort of recourse if there is one Mana type that you can't use
consistently. Look down your list of spells and see if one Mana type shows up
in more than half, not including the mount spell. If so, you have a weakness
and you should correct it. Try substituting something that has a similar effect
but uses different colors of Mana. For instance, if you have too much yellow,
take out Archery in favor of Sneak Attack. Archery is usually better, but
Sneak Attack will come in much handier against 30% Air resist.
Entangle can often help overwhelm an opponent by allowing you to keep recasting
the same spell until it lands, but watch out for Entangle itself getting
Strategy: Entangle and Gust of Wind with Dragonhorn
Finally it's time for the combo. Build up your Mana, cast Entangle, then Gust
of Wind over and over. The 4/5 of a kind matches from Gust of Wind will fill
your Mana to the max, Then switch to Forest Fire. Keep an eye on how many extra
turns you have and on your Yellow Mana. When you have one extra turn left, use
Gust of Wind and then Entangle. If done right, they should never get another
Next: Death Gaze
This is the source of your offensive might, the killing blow. This spell is
absolutely essential to learn. It will help overcome many of the remaining
weaknesses in your game, especially resistances. We just need to capture a
Liche and research. They pop up right before Hornburg, so once you unlock the
Mechataur quest just wait for him to show up and keep fighting him.
You will be using the Rune of Gods to make you other equipment, and that means
you have to get a lot of matches. This minigame is partly based on luck so
there is no perfect way to go about it. Here are a few things I do to make this
- Try to get your scrolls early. Look for 4/5 of a kinds and try to set them
up. If you can, keep them together, though. Too many stray scrolls will make it
harder to keep your game running.
- Start from the top and work your way down. This will maximize the number of
matches you can make. Anytime you're forced to make a match at the bottom, go
back to the top and see if there are any new matches. It pays to be methodical
here. Save matches at the very bottom for last, even if they're scrolls.
- Focus on vertical matches. These tend to create more possibilities and can
mix up a stale board.
- Save matches that would finish out a color. When you finish a color or scroll
category, it clears the board of that color. Look to finish that when a lot of
that color is present to create the biggest effect.
Other words:
You may have been wondering why EVERY piece of equipment must be forged. The
answer is simple: starting Mana. You can't rely on the board to help you, it's
very important that you are able to cast all you spells you need to without
making a single match on the board. You might think this makes the board
obsolete, but what we are really doing is making the board our plaything. With
almost nothing left to chance, the only things that the gems ever do are what
we tell them to do.
Your extra money should be going towards stat improvement. High Cunning will
help most, and Battle can make a difference now and then. Here's an example of
how you should end up looking like in the stat department:
Earth: 65
Fire: 15
Air: 125
Water: 25
Battle: 15+
Cunning: 50+
Morale: 20+
Final Equip Set:
-Helm: Rune of Jewels + Rune of Gods + Rune of Water
-Armor: Rune of Flight + Rune of Gods + Rune of Wind
-Weapon: Rune of Staves + Rune of Gods + Rune of Earth
-Accessory: Rune of Music + Rune of Dragons + Rune of Earth
The Power Runes can be mixed or matched here as long as your starting Mana is
over the numbers listed in the section above. The only base Rune
that is required is Music but I think you'll find what I have listed is ideal.
Also I believe that the Rune of Dragons in the accessory gives the highest
chances for success in getting your combo started.
Your Main Strategy:
-Cunning should be high so you can get the first turn.
-starting Mana should be at least 40 green, 50 yellow, and 20 blue.
-Fire Mastery should be at least 10 so that your max Red is at least 30.
Cast Entangle.
Cast Gust of Wind until your Mana is full.
Cast Death Gaze.
If they're not dead, they should be close.
Finish up with skull matches, Forest Fire, Sneak Attack, etc.
You now have a Druid capable of beating a Warrior in PvP. Just keep working on
that Cunning and mind the resistances.
Now go kill the boss.
The end.

A couple of weeks ago I mentioned that, no matter what you do or how good your security strategy is, at some point you will face a breach. I talked about what to do when that happens, but I'd also like to talk about something that can mitigate the effects of a breach. If you haven't already thought about it, consider data encryption, i.e. encoding your data so that it can't be read by unauthorized persons. When speaking of data encryption, as opposed to connection encryption, there are two main types: full disk and file system encryption. Full disk encryption --- which encodes the entire disk, including directory structure, temporary files, swap files, metadata, and in some cases even the boot loader --- is in most cases preferable to using file system encryption, which encrypts whatever files and folders the user of the encryption software desires. The situation that most calls for data encryption of either kind is when your employees are using laptops that they are allowed to take home and/or on the road. If the laptop is lost or stolen, the thief or eventual recipient of the laptop will have a much harder time getting any useful data off the laptop. However, it's not a bad idea to encrypt, at least at the file system level, your desktop machines as well. For instance, you should already have solutions in place to prevent users from accessing files in departments such as HR and Finance, but encrypting the sensitive files on those systems such that only authorized personnel can read them will be further deterrent. (A system in place that lets you know when if and when a file was accessed, and where from, is also a good idea, but not in the scope of this article.) There is no reason why you can't use both full disk and file system encryption, and I would actually suggest this in the case of road warriors. No one encryption system is completely foolproof, but using file encryption on the most sensitive files and folders in addition to full disk encryption --- as long as you don't keep the keys on the disk! --- will serve as another deterrent to the thief's being able to extract any useful data. Full disk encryption is or can be mostly transparent to the end user, as decryption occurs when files are accessed. Therefore, using it need not be a huge learning curve for you and your employees. There are also well-supported open source options, as well as commercial ones. Having encryption in place could make a huge difference to the scope of the problems you face in case of a hack or other types of disaster, and it satisfies government and industry regulations as well.

Importance of transportation lawyer
If you haven't remained in a vehicular crash, you are one of the lucky ones who have actually not undertaken this traumatic encounter regular of such problems.
