Lots of forums have very "tl;dr" lists of rules. We'd like to think that Internet etiquette is pretty easy stuff, so here's our short list of rules and guidelines, which can be scanned in one minute:
1) Don't be an asshole.
This one is easy. Basic Internet etiquette. Don't type anything that you wouldn't say out loud to your mom. Well, I don't know, maybe your mom is an asshole and you would want t-...anyway, you get the idea. Repeated bad behavior will result in a probation or ban.
1b) If someone else is being an asshole, don't reply to them. Report the post and move on.
2) Don't harass others or post any personal information.
Another basic Internet thing. Don't make us the highlight of an evening news story about stalking or homicide. THIS INCLUDES YOUR OWN PERSONAL INFORMATION! Harassment will result in probations and bans. Posting your own personal info means you're really dumb, and will result in a probation. Posting someone else's personal info is an instant permaban. (Personal info includes, but is not limited to, real names, addresses, phone numbers, and Facebook URLs.)
3) Do not try to commission a custom for real money or offer real money commissions. Do not offer or request real money for anything.
The potential for bad heavily outweighs the potential for good with this. We can't stop you from negotiating stuff like this in PM, but we are not responsible for you getting ripped off, and if you post about it in public you will be warned (first time) and then banned.
4) Do not post links to CONs/etc. of official Rock Band 3 or Rock Band 4 content.
Harmonix deserves your money. Support the company that made the game you love, and buy official DLC instead of pirating it. If you knowingly post links to this content, you will be banned. If you directly ask for such a link, you will be suspended for two weeks; ask again and you will be banned. We take this very seriously.
5) Do not discuss or post links to multitracks or song stems.
That's it. If you want to obtain multitracks, Google is your friend. Don't discuss them here. Even if a song's stems have been released to the public for free (i.e. a remix contest with a Creative Commons license), do not re-distribute them on the C3 forums.
6) Be courteous and constructive when giving (or responding to) feedback on other people's customs.
We want C3 to be a welcoming environment for all authors, including those that are just starting out. A lot of this falls under rule 1, but many people seem to forget that the author you're criticizing spent a lot of time and energy on those charts. Your right to free speech doesn't include being an asshole. This applies to authors, too -- if someone's being a douchebag, don't be a douchebag in return. You can politely ask an author to put more effort into polishing a song, but if they say they don't want to, don't insist. Give thanks first, criticize second, and remember that if you don't like something you don't have to download or comment, you can simply leave it be. Violations of this rule will result in warnings, probations, and possibly bans.
7) No porn, gore, or other objectionable content.
You can swear as much as you fucking like, but we have users of all ages from all over the globe. Don't do anything that would get us in trouble. Violating this rule will almost certainly result in a ban.
8) Use common sense. Don't do bad or subversive things just because they're not covered here.
This is the catch-all rule. Don't try to find loopholes or otherwise play the system. We are a benevolent dictatorship, here. We have no reason to drop the hammer on you unless you do something to deserve it, but that is ultimately our call.
9) Do not post customs of songs C3 has already released.
Our goal is to simplify things for the final user, so once we release a C3 version of a song, we will ask you to either take down your version or not work on the same song so that only one version of the song is available. This may also apply to songs we are about to release, so please understand if we privately ask you to take down songs you've just put up.
And a few final things that are still very important:
• C3 is not endorsed by or affiliated with Harmonix Music Systems.
• Only C3 admins (red names) speak for C3 as an organization.
We have many excellent authors that contribute songs to our weekly releases, but their opinions are their own, and do not necessarily represent C3. Similarly, any claim of "C3 says ____" or "C3's standard for that is ____" should be taken with a grain of salt if it doesn't come from an admin.
• We do not accept donations for hosting.
This is more of a corollary to rule 3, but please don't offer us real money for any reason.
• Use the report button!
There is a report button, a little triangle with an exclamation point, in the upper right corner of every post. If you think a given post or thread violates any of the rules above, please use it instead of replying or making your own thread.
• Please remember that Rock Band is a game, and we're here to create fun.
It's easy to lose yourself in the srs bizness that is customs authoring. Take a second every now and then to remind yourself that Rock Band is just a game, and the purpose of making and playing content for it is enjoyment. If you're experiencing more frustration than fun on these forums, something is wrong.

Gould's miss costs Bears in 23-20 loss to Vikings
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Robbie Gould's voice cracked as he reflected on a rare miss.
Hours after the birth of his son, a weary Gould kept the Chicago Bears from winning in overtime by pulling his 47-yard try slightly to the right on the most bittersweet of Sundays for one of the NFL's most accurate kickers.
Adrian Peterson rushed for 211 yards and Blair Walsh kicked a 34-yard field goal in the extra period to lift the Minnesota Vikings to a wild 23-20 victory over the Bears.
"I'm happy for my wife and my little boy. Sorry I couldn't do it for my teammates like I did for my wife this morning," said Gould, who arrived in Minnesota about six hours before the game after welcoming his first child into the world.
Gould's 66-yard field goal fell a few yards short as regulation ended. He entered the game with the second-best career percentage in league history among those with 100 or more field goals made.
"I make that kick a lot. I've just got to step up and make it. I just didn't do it," Gould said. "That game could've cost us the playoffs, and that's on my shoulders."
Bears coach Marc Trestman made a point of absolving Gould of the blame.
"At the end of the day, we didn't get it done. The accountability starts with me," Trestman said, adding: "Robbie didn't lose the game for us. There's a lot of different ways. No one play loses the game."
Alshon Jeffery had 12 catches for 249 yards and two touchdowns and Matt Forte rushed 23 times for 120 yards for the Bears (6-6), who led 20-10 until midway through the fourth quarter. They converted only two of 11 third downs and punted seven times, rendering Josh McCown's season-high 355 yards passing less remarkable.
"My emotions aren't really just stuck on this game. It's this season," said wide receiver Brandon Marshall. "Anything still can happen. You never know. We've seen some crazy things in the past. But it (stinks). We want to get to the playoffs. We want to win. A lot of people in this organization deserve it. A lot of people in this city deserve it. And for us not to get it done today put us behind the 8-ball a little more."
The Bears trail Detroit by one game in the NFC North with four games to go, but after falling to 2-3 in the division the Bears can't win the tiebreaker with the Lions.
"We need some help from some other teams to put us back in position. I don't know how it's going to work out, but we just have to keep our eye on the prize," said left tackle Jermon Bushrod in a somber locker room.
Julius Peppers had 2½ sacks, half of his team's total, but the defense missing five injured starters also faltered in critical situations.
Matt Cassel took over at quarterback late in the second quarter after Christian Ponder suffered a concussion, and Cassel finished 20 for 33 for 243 yards and a touchdown pass to Greg Jennings with 7:41 remaining in regulation to pull with the Vikings (3-8-1) within three points.
Khaseem Greene's interception at the goal line and 49-yard return gave the Bears the ball at midfield with 4:38 left. Forte was stopped on second-and-1 and third-and-1. Trestman refused to second-guess the play calls.
"I understood kind of their thinking there, too. Obviously as a competitor, you're ready to throw the ball or do whatever," McCown said. "But I have full trust in Marc."
Walsh tied the game with 24 seconds left on a 30-yard kick.
Then in overtime, the Bears caught a break. Walsh made a 39-yard field goal that would've ended the game, but Rhett Ellison was flagged for a face-mask penalty while trying to block Devin Hester. Peterson was thrown for a 3-yard loss and Walsh's 57-yard try hit the bottom of the left upright.
Forte ran five times for 24 yards to give the Bears the ball at the 29. On second-and-7, with 4:12 remaining, Trestman sent Gould out to try to win the game.
"I don't care if it was first down. I believe in Robbie Gould. That's a chip shot for him. So if it was first down, I'd put all my money on him," Marshall said.
Trestman said he was confident in the decision, too.
"I just felt we were in range, and let's get it done. I've seen it happen many times before," he said.
With their second straight tie looming, the Vikings went 47 yards the other way in seven plays. Walsh nailed this one, capping the unlikely comeback.
NOTES: The Bears lost nine of their last 11 games at the Metrodome, which will be torn down next year to make room for Minnesota's new stadium. They finished 12-20 here. ... Jeffery was targeted 15 times. ... Craig Steltz started for Major Wright (hamstring) at SS and led the Bears with 12 tackles.

Mark Wahlberg Talks Aquaman!
Written by Robert Sanchez
Sunday, 13 August 2006
Mark Wahlbergs upcoming film, Invincible, is a truly inspirational story of a down and out Philly boy who does good. While attending the press day for the promotional tour of Invincible, we sat down with Wahlberg for a few words. The first question on my mind was regarding Aquaman.
With the huge success of Wahlbergs HBO series Entourage, where he serves as executive producer, rumors have been flying around for a real feature film Aquaman. On the show, hot Hollywood actor Vincent Chase is set to portray Aquaman in a James Cameron directed big screen version of the superhero.
Subsequently, with the Aquaman spoof on the hit show, there has been a lot talk of an actual feature film.
So today when we had the chance speak directly to Wahlberg regarding the rumors, we took it. The IESB asked Wahlberg if there was any truth to these rumors and if there was a possibility of seeing him don the classic green and orange costume, to which he responded, no, I dont think so.
Although, he does acknowledge there has been talk from multiple sources he says he would be more interested in producing such a project rather than star in it.
So who would be his first choice to star as the underwater superhero? Why Adrian Grenier of course who portrays Vincent Chase in Entourage who is portraying the Aquaman in the fictional feature film of the storyline. Confused? He isn't, he says Adrian is already Aquaman for him and he would be his choice.
So where do we stand? Its all talk right now, but we may see something in the future, but Wahlberg will not be starring perhaps behind the camera instead and his first choice, well his only choice actually, would be Vince, Adrian Grenier, the star of Entourage.
For those of you who need a bit of background on Aquaman, here you go!
Aquaman is a DC Comics superhero. Created by Paul Norris and Mort Weisinger, he first appeared in More Fun Comics #73 (November 1941).
An undersea hero from the mythical kingdom of Atlantis, Aquaman is Arthur Curry, the son of a human lighthouse keeper and an outcast woman from Atlantis. In the most well-known version of his origin, Arthur Curry grows up slowly learning about his powers and origins and vows to defend the oceans and their inhabitants as Aquaman, becoming the ruler of Atlantis and the undersea world.
Aquaman possesses the abilities to breathe underwater, communicate with and mentally control all forms of sea life and swim at fast speeds. He also possesses superhuman levels of strength, speed, endurance and durability, all by-products of his body being adapted to survive unprotected in the tremendous pressures of the ocean depths.
Although other Atlanteans possess similar adaptations, Aquaman is super-Atlantean as well as super-human, and as such he has greater physical capabilities than does a typical Atlantean. - Wikipedia

There she is!!, also known to some as Ddautta, is a popular flash-animation saga made by a team of three Korean flash artists who go by name of SamBakZa, and which is based on a Korean manga they made called One Day.
- Main article: List of episodes in There she is!!
Amalloc has indicated that, once the complete series of five is finished, he hopes to produce for sale inline (online?) a DVD of all the works. There already exists a fan-produced DVD of the first two episodes (complete with subtitles), but this has not been publicly released due to copyright concerns.
On January 12th 2016, after HD versions of the original five episodes had been uploaded to YouTube, SamBakZa launched an Indiegogo campaign in order to help fund a new episode of There She Is. The new episode will primarily feature the Jijntta-set, the three scruffy bunnies, and will explore their origins and why they ultimately decided to help Doki and Nabi find their love. Its funding is ongoing.
In addition to being on the SamBakZa website, a version of the first animation with English titling was published in 2004 to high acclaim. This, along with the English-titled sequel, has given a much wider audience for SamBakZa in the western world where they now have a respectable fan base. Although the animations have no dialogue, and the characters names weren't disclosed until 2006, the webtoons are admired for their constant and well-played action, which gets laughs and "aw"s from its viewers.
"There she is!!" was nominated for both the Professional Award and the Cyber Jury Award at the Anima Mundi Web Festival in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in 2004. It won both categories. [1]

ETHICSOC 170: Ethical Theory (PHIL 170, PHIL 270)
How should we live our lives? Should you love your neighbour as yourself? Should you be digging wells rather than taking philosophy classes? Is taxation just? What obligations do we have to the not-yet-born, and to the dead? And says who? Are there really any answers to these questions? If so, what explains why they are one way rather than another? The will of God? Perhaps we need rules to ensure mutual benefits. But then, can I break them if no-one will find out? Can it be appropriate to blame you for doing something that you thought was the right thing to do (perhaps rejecting a blood transfusion)? Or to praise you for doing something you thought was the wrong thing to do (like Huck Finn)? By the end of this semester, you will be developing answers to these questions and many more.nnA more challenging version of Phil 2 designed primarily for juniors and seniors (may also be appropriate for some freshmen and sophomores - contact professor). Fulfills the Ethical Reasoning requirement. Graduate section (270) will include supplemental readings and discussion, geared for graduate students new to moral philosophy, as well as those with some background who would like more.

Morally controversial uses of markets and market reasoning in areas such as organ sales, procreation, education, and child labor.

Readings include Walzer, Arrow, Rawls, Sen, Frey, Titmuss, and empirical cases.

ETHICSOC 233R: The Ethics of Religious Politics
Is it possible for a deeply committed religious person to be a good citizen in a liberal, pluralistic democracy? Is it morally inappropriate for religious citizens to appeal to the teachings of their tradition when they support and vote for laws that coerce fellow citizens? Must the religiously committed be prepared to defend their arguments by appealing to 'secular reasons' ostensibly accessible to all 'reasonable' citizens? What is so special about religious claims of conscience and expression that they warrant special protection in the constitution of most liberal democracies? Is freedom of religion an illusion when it is left to ostensibly secular courts to decide what counts as religion? Exploration of the debates surrounding the public role of religion in a religiously pluralistic American democracy through the writings of scholars on all sides of the issue from the fields of law, political science, philosophy, and religious studies.

ETHICSOC 237M: Politics and Evil (POLISCI 237M)
In the aftermath of the Second World War, the political theorist Hannah Arendt wrote that ¿the problem of evil will be the fundamental question of postwar intellectual life in Europe.¿ This question remains fundamental today. The acts to which the word ¿evil¿ might apply¿genocide, terrorism, torture, human trafficking, etc.¿persist. The rhetoric of evil also remains central to American political discourse, both as a means of condemning such acts and of justifying preventive and punitive measures intended to combat them. In this advanced undergraduate seminar, we will examine the intersection of politics and evil by considering works by philosophers and political theorists, with occasional forays into film and media. The thinkers covered will include: Hannah Arendt, Immanuel Kant, Niccolò Machiavelli, Friedrich Nietzche, and Michael Walzer.

I personally have taken the leap from my Blackberry phone recently and purchased an HTC Incredible. An android phone that quite frankly has completely assimilated me. Included in that assimilation are an entire host of useful tools to help while geocaching. I am not talking about the standard geocaching apps themselves. I will be doing several articles about them soon enough. No I am talking about all the other helpful apps out there for Android phones you may not have thought of.
Below are two lists. The first is a list of favorites that I have on my phone right now that I use for geocaching. The second is a list that was provided by fellow geocachers. I hope you find these items useful in your geocaching en devours.
These are in no particular order:
HeadHardHat's Favorites:
Android Flashlight App - No more trying to use your phone for a weak flashlight. This app which comes standard on many androids uses the high powered camera LEDs for a very powerful beam.
Voice Recorder - Sometimes it is just too clumsy to try and type your information while geocaching. Here you have a digital recorder you can just say what you want and it is right there at your fingertips.
Evernotes - For those times you need to type in what you want Evernotes rocks. Not only can you access all sorts of documents on your phone but on your PC as well. Since it is synced in the cloud you always have your documents available.
Loopt - Want to tell where you are via GPS? Loopt is a great application that allows you to check in where you are. Either at a restaurant, watering hole or out in the woods a gps record can show where you at when you want that information to be noted. Sends to twitter, facebook, etc.
Car Locator - You may have seen this application in a car commercial recently. I personally love it. Mark where your car is and then use the application radar to find it when needed.
From The Geocaching Forums:
Android Browser - (Default Installed)
Scan regular UPC/EAN barcodes from most products like DVDs, books, and food to see comparison pricing, reviews, accessories local prices (US only) and nutritional information (US only). You can even buy the product right from Amazon or over 25 other retailers.

Alan Gross, the Maryland man who is serving 15 years in a Cuban prison after taking communications equipment into the communist nation, is asking authorities there to let him return to the United States to visit his ailing mother before she dies.
Gross, who grew up in the Baltimore area and lived in Potomac, told CNN that he and his lawyer had written to the Cuban government "on more than one occasion" to request permission to see Evelyn Gross.
"I have a 90-year-old mother who has inoperable lung cancer. And she's not getting any younger. And she's not getting any healthier," he told Wolf Blitzer during a telephone call from the military hospital where he is held.
"My mother is not allowed to travel," he said. "She is medically ordered not to travel. And the government of Cuba knows this."
Gross, 63, has told authorities he would return to Cuba after the visit. He said he has not received a response.
Gross and his family have made several requests for his release on humanitarian grounds. Evelyn Gross spoke of her illness in a video addressed directly to Cuban President Raul Castro. Earlier, Alan Gross asked to be allowed to see a daughter who was being treated for cancer.
The Cuban government has not honored any of the requests.
As a subcontractor to the U.S. Agency for International Development, Alan Gross was trying to help Cuba's small Jewish community set up an intranet and gain better access to the Internet. The veteran aid worker, who had not worked in Cuba and did not speak Spanish, made several trips to the Caribbean island nation before he was arrested in 2009.
President Barack Obama, Sen. Ben Cardin and Rep. Chris Van Hollen have urged his release. Former President Jimmy Carter, Pope Benedict XVI and former New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson have made personal appeals to the Cuban government during visits to the island.
Gross described the conditions of his confinement in a "secured hospital building" that holds three people to a room. He told Blitzer there are bars on the windows, and he is not allowed to see people other than his cellmates.
Gross said he is allowed outside every day while there's sunlight — "a recent development."
"I didn't really see any sunlight for the first year and a half or so."
Food is brought to the cell.
The food initially wasn't very good, which is probably why I started losing weight rapidly at first," he said. "The food was infested with insects."
He said he has dropped 100 pounds in confinement.

Happiness comes in many forms. Maybe its warm sun on your face and your toes in the sand, or maybe its sharing a laughter-filled conversation with your loved ones. Maybe its the good news you've been waiting to hear.
It can be found in the smallest, simplest moments...like biting into a fresh peach that's so incredibly juicy that you have to strategically stand over the sink to eat it, while juice unavoidably runs down your arms. And you know what? That darn peach is so delicious that it's okay to get a little messy!
After all, it's the little moments that make life so fun.
This Buttermilk Peach Ice Cream certainly put a smile on my family's faces recently. It's the height of peach season around here, and I couldn't help but want to break out the ice cream maker after buying these peachy beauties. I started searching for recipe inspiration online, and I stumbled upon a recipe by one of my favorite fellow bloggers, Homesick Texan.
The ingredients intrigued me. Buttermilk in ice cream?!? Genius! It sounded pretty incredible, so I got to work. I love this recipe for its simplicity. A lot of ice cream recipes are custard-based, which requires eggs and a lot of extra time standing over the stove. This version comes together easily and tastes nothing short of heavenly!
The trick is allowing the peaches to macerate for a few hours along with the cinnamon, sugar and lemon juice. This easy process really concentrates the flavors and takes it up a notch.
Plus, the buttermilk adds a great little twang to the ice cream, which is subtle yet perfect.
Bon Appetit, my friends! Let's all find happiness in the little moments this summer...They're all around us!
Buttermilk Peach Ice Cream
Adapted from: Homesick Texan
2 cups cream
1 cup buttermilk
2 pounds (about 6) whole peaches, peeled and sliced (about 2 cups)
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 cup buttermilk
2 pounds (about 6) whole peaches, peeled and sliced (about 2 cups)
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tbsp lemon juice
Toss peeled and sliced peaches with sugar, lemon juice and cinnamon. Cover, refrigerate and let macerate at least for a couple of hours, preferably overnight or all day.
Puree half of the peaches in a blender, and then mix puree with cream, buttermilk and vanilla. Next, roughly mash the remaining peaches with a potato masher and then add them to the cream mixture.
Freeze according to your ice-cream maker's instructions.
To peel the peaches, place them into a pot of boiling water for 30 seconds, and then transfer them to a bowl filled with ice water to halt the cooking. The skin should rub right off after blanching.

TACOMA — Wrestling is an individual sport. At its heart, it is one competitor against another alone on the mat and supposedly nothing else outside the ring matters.
Don't tell that to the Lake Stevens Wrestling team.
Saturday at Mat Classic XXV, the Vikings captured their fifth 4A state crown in seven seasons, besting defending champion Tahoma by a wide margin 162-120. Edmonds-Woodway was the next best local team in ninth place with 52 points. The Vikings will tell you they could never do it on their own.
"It is a team because you can't get better by yourself." Lake Stevens coach Brent Barnes said. "You can't do it alone. That's why these kids are good because they have each other."
The Vikings had three individual champions and were the only local team with even three finalists. Heavyweight Brandon Johnson's win in the 4A title bout capped the tournament.
"It's huge," Johnson said. "Individual state title is great, but a team state title where everybody worked and contributed to it? That's awesome. Nothing like it."
If any one of the Vikings had reason to take more pride in his individual performance it was Johnson. A year ago as a junior on the same stage he led Central Kitsap's Kyle Lanoue 1-0 and nearly pinned the senior, but an escape sent the match to overtime where Johnson gave up a near fall and lost.
"When you come so close to something you want real bad and you don't quite make the cut it pushes you 10 times harder than before," Johnson said. "As soon as I stepped off the mat here I went into training again."
Johnson hasn't lost a high school bout since, which is a first at the 285-pound class according to Barnes.
"For him to do that on our schedule is pretty phenomenal," Barnes said. "He's a good heavyweight."
He was good enough to lift Barnes up off the mat and embrace the long-time coach after what seemed like a parade in the form of a 7-3 decision against South Kitsap's Damien Medeiros who Johnson had beaten twice previously including last weeks regional tournament.
"He's a great kid and he works really hard," Barnes said. "He's put a lot of time in the sport. He's been a good leader for us and he's big. He's a huge human being."
Barnes said it was the first time a wrestler has picked him up. Saturday was also the first time that Barnes coached brothers both to state titles — Michael and Eric Soler.
Michael, a freshman, won at 106 pounds, and Eric, a senior, won at 145 pounds.
Michael Soler, wrestling in his first Mat Classic opened, the championship round with a relatively easy 8-3 decision over Moses Lake's Trey Long. He wasn't sure how it would feel after watching his older brother get his first title last year as a junior.
"It was incredible," Michael said. "I've never felt this proud. It all paid off. It's more of a relief I think actually."
He said that he felt pressure during the regular season, but was able to escape the pressure at the Tacoma Dome.
"I really felt it earlier in the season," he said. "But I just kind of took it off myself and went out there and wrestled."
The younger Soler was the tip of the spear of the freshman class that played a big part in the state crown and, according to Barnes, made this one of the unique teams that he's coached.
"It's just a good mix of old and young," Barnes said of the four freshman and six seniors in his 14 state qualifiers. "Kids that get along and care about each other. It's pretty awesome."
One of the hardest fought individual wins came from Eric Soler at 145 pounds. He went up against another defending state titleist in the final. Ian Steen of Graham Kapowsin took a 2-0 edge after the second period and Soler earned an escape point in the third. With 12.7 seconds to go in the match, he got a timely reversal for a 3-2 lead.
His strategy was simple.
"Stay in the match and then when it's time to go just go," Eric Soler said.
He went 1-1 against Steen during the regular season and used experience to his advantage. Over his career he's also come back from injuries including an ACL tear, a sprained MCL and torn meniscus.
"I don't know if I've coached as good a competitor as Eric," Barnes said. "He seems to have a flair for the dramatic. He finds a way and you have to be pretty special to find a way to get the job done."
The Vikings briefly talked of going for the 4A record for points set by Tahoma last year (190), but ended up not having enough wins.
Still, the team was proud of the overall victory.
"It means a lot, especially as a captain I'm responsible," Eric Soler said. "I feel like I didn't do my job last year when we took fifth. We just weren't where we needed to be. People were getting in trouble and a couple kids didn't make weight. That was kind of on me because I was really looking after everyone."
Freshman AJ Crew was runnerup to Michael Soler in the district 1 tourney but, his hopes of a rematch in the finals in Tacoma were dashed when he lost a 7-2 decision in the semifinals. He finished with a close 4-2 loss to Eastmont's Fabian Wickham to take fourth.
At 120 pounds, freshman Jake Douglas was pinned in the semifinals by Tahoma senior Tim Whitehead. He won one more match, but dropped a 4-2 decision to take home fourth place. At 138 pounds, senior Jesse Peterson lost to finalist Joshua Smith of Kent-Meridian in the second round, but rallied to take fifth place with a pin. Blake Sander took home seventh place at 160 pounds with a 5-3 OT win.
Sophomore Cody Vigoren made the semifinals at 170 pounds, but was thrown back by Chandler Rogers of Mead who pinned him Saturday morning. He won a 4-2 decision to advance to the third place final, but dropped a 3-2 decision and took fourth place.
Shaq Reed had never wrestled until his sophomore year and was just a participant in the Mat Classic last year. This year he breezed into the semifinals but ran into Wenatchee's Kyle Lesmeister and dropped a 4-2 decision. He won his first consolation bout 6-1 but was pinned by Skyline's Sean Mcalhaney.

text: Pamela Anderson launches anti-seal hunt ads 2:53 PM PDT 10/23/2009 by Associated Press , AP FACEBOOK TWITTER EMAIL ME Among several celebrities participating in PETA campaign TORONTO -- Former "Baywatch" star Pamela Anderson wants to save the seals from the annual hunt on Canada's East Coast. The Canadian-born actress and animal rights activist is among several celebrities who are taking part in an ad campaign by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. Anderson visited the Ontario provincial legislature on Friday to introduce the new ads that will also feature singers Sarah McLachlan and Kelly Osborne and celebrity blogger Perez Hilton. Anderson told the TV show "Canada AM" that she's "angry" about the seal hunt, describing it as "barbaric and cruel" and "an embarrassment" to her native country. The indigenous Inuit community says the seal hunt provides crucial jobs and food for villagers in isolated northern communities in Canada. Canada's East Coast seal hunt is the largest in the world, killing an average of 300,000 harp seals annually.

Huskies, ho-hum, blank Sailors, 4-0
EDWARDS – Yes, you, Sarawut.
Late in Thursday night's soccer match against Steamboat Springs, the Huskies got a penalty kick and Battle Mountain coach David Cope called for senior Sarawut Yubonmai to take it.
His reaction?
"What? That's me," Yubonmai said after the game. "I'm so happy."
Yubonmai's goal capped a solid, but not overly-crisp 4-0 victory for Battle Mountain over Steamboat Springs, giving the Huskies a season sweep of their league rivals Thursday in Edwards.
And here lies the conundrum for the Huskies, now 11-0 overall and 9-0 in the Slope. A season sweep is always big in this storied rivalry, much less the fact that the Sailors didn't score on Battle Mountain in two tries.
But with the Huskies' sights set higher, or more particularly at a run at state, the reaction was almost that of ho-hum. How does a team try to keep high standards of play and also enjoy the ride?
"It's exciting and upsetting at some points," said Battle Mountain senior Gunnar Wilson, who had his team's second goal. "We know what we're capable of. It's also exciting because we have that much more potential in us."
"It's a challenge with high school kids not to believe the score lines and to recognize that there are going to be challenges down the road," Cope said. "Sometimes, maybe, that comes across as harshness with the players. We've got to make sure that they're enjoying this. We're 11-0 and that's really special. It's a fine line between still pushing them and working real hard to be better and also have them enjoy the results."
Along those lines, the next challenge for Battle Mountain is a Monday tilt at Summit County at 6 p.m. A win ices the league for the Huskies. Meanwhile Steamboat (6-5 and 4-3) is in a battle to make the state playoffs. The Sailors host Palisade Saturday at 11 a.m.
"We have four games remaining, and, at this point, we're looking to get maximum points – four games, four wins, 12 points," Steamboat Springs coach Rob Bohlmann said. "We feel that gives us a shot to get into the postseason as one of those four (teams) out of our league."
While it was not the best game Battle Mountain has played this year, the Huskies had this one from the start. Battle Mountain's Alex Trujillo got the first of his two assists, feeding Roberto Diaz in the eighth minute. Heivan Garcia to Wilson made it 2-0 in the 21st.
Steamboat's junior goalie Carter Kounovsky kept the score there with two magnificent saves toward the end of the half. Battle Mountain finally put it away when senior Joe LyBarger broke through the Sailors' defense, received a nice through-ball from Trujillo and scored his 19th of the season.
While the Huskies' camp is very much focused on the team result, LyBarger's 19th ties him for third with Dan Weiland, Class of 1993, for most goals in a season at Battle Mountain. (Andy Banner had 23 in 2004 and Scott Ligouri notched 20 in 2000.)
Steamboat did mount some possession as the game progressed, but was still lacking the accompanying run to turn that into scoring,
"There are areas in our game where we feel we've improved and are getting stronger," Bohlmann said.
While Steamboat Springs will be trying to avenge a 4-2 loss last month to Palisade on Saturday, Battle Mountain gears up for a rematch with its toughest league opponent to date, Summit County, on Monday. The Huskies defeated the Tigers, 3-1, on Sept. 25 in Edwards in a monsoon.
"I think it's going to be pretty tough," Wilson said. "It was pretty scary here. It was closer than a 3-1 game. We can't overlook it at all. It can give us the league."

Lady Gaga goes semi-nude, writhes in cake
Singer Lady Gaga has shot a raunchy promo clip for her new song 'Cake', as she writhed around in her lingerie on the squashed remains of a giant creamy sponge cake.
The clip is shot by photographer Terry Richardson. Gaga is seen pulping the sweet delight with her semi-naked body, reports thesun.co.uk. She bumps and grinds in the creamy mess, simulating sex moves and covering her skin in cake as she rolls around. Gaga occasionally pauses to seductively lick clumps of the crushed dessert off her fingers.
At one point, she is also caught rubbing her derriere on the slippery floor. Later in the 20-second clip, she is seen in a tub with her back towards the camera. In that scene, she is topless and has worn just a thong that is rendered semi-transparent by the water.

We are a geophysical survey company working mostly in archaeology with some other shallow geophysical work alongside. This is ArchaeoPhysica's second Day of Archaeology post, this time featuring mostly office work.
I'm Anne Roseveare, the Operations Manager, and I spend much of my time at a desk, make a few field visits and occasionally can be found in the workshop building and mending things. Unsurprisingly, my day involved quite a bit of time on the phone and emailing people about quote requests, ground conditions and schedules. Harvest dates are a hot topic at the moment as often fieldwork is held until the crops are cleared and we're then wanted everywhere in a short time window. Our overall timetabling process has similarities to multi-dimensional tetris, or at least it feels like it.
We had fresh batches of data in from the previous couple of days' fieldwork to process, visualise and prepare interim results to send to our archaeological clients. Kathryn's been busy working through these, checking data quality and getting the data sets GIS-ready. I've also been working on the final stage of reporting for a multi-method geophysical survey on a deserted medieval settlement.
One of last week's surveys was a couple of fields of magnetic data collected on a research basis next to a monument we surveyed using ERT (electrical resistance tomography) a few months ago. It's not often you get to survey a neolithic long cairn and visit the excavation of the damaged part, so we were keen to see what (if anything) there was to see around it. Our work will inform the long term management plan for the monument.
The rest of Friday's workload was as usual completely commercially confidential – most of our work is development-related and is attached to planning applications (so no pictures from these).
I reviewed a WSI (Written Scope of Investigation) prepared by colleagues Daniel & Martin for a large project, updating the sections on soils & geologies. We often produce a WSI for large or complicated projects – sometimes it is required by the Local Authority Archaeologist or the client. It contains a summary of the purpose of the project and background information that will influence our geophysical work, including heritage and environmental information. Next comes the reasoning why our proposal is the most effective way forward and what the limitations are, followed by what the outputs from our work will be.
Another chunk of my time went into preparation for a forthcoming project, where there are multiple areas to survey and strict access arrangements as the site is sensitive. In this case, our project GIS will help us and the client to map out survey & no-go zones, schedule the different work areas (and re-schedule if needed as the work unfolds) as well as be the usual foundation for our reporting. We'll be mapping visible signs of landscaping as the fieldwork goes on, too, to give our geophysical data local context.
Behind the scenes, out of sight of clients, there's always other things happening. For example Martin was preparing a funding proposal to support a research project on a prehistoric mining site and there was unexciting but important maintenance of our internal project archive. Also, project Pegasus is moving along, with Martin & Benj on 3D design and construction (all will be revealed later this year). We usually have a development project on the go – it's a case of fitting things round the commercial work.
I lost count how many mugs of tea and coffee we got through but this week's Friday cake was carrot cake with particularly squishy icing – important fuel!

TEENpup 2.14 Update/Bug fix Release Maybe in 2 weeks
Hello Everyone,
Forum user edoc has request DjVu file format support as well as there's a problem with the petget installer where I've some how deleted a file preventing installing of new Pets from Barry K's site that I want to fix.
Also I want to add some more small plugins for Konqueror to add more usability.
I thinking of adding Wengophone (older smaller version) to TEENpup as well.
I think it would be easier to create an new iso than post all these changes on the forum.
What do you think?
Any suggestions for Apps you'd like to see added to TEENpup please post them now and I will see what I can do.
If it's not too big and I can get it working properly in TEENpup I see if I can include it in this update/bug fix, now's the time to make your requests.

hi john,
i've just downloaded version 2.12 of wengophone, and i wonder whether you need to include it with teenpup, as it seems to be an app that you can extract pretty much anywhere, click on the wengophone.sh file, and it works. the only thing missing is that it perhaps needs a .desktop file for the menu. what do you think?

Hello muggins,
worked 12 hours today, so will install it and have a play tomorrow.
The desktop file is no problem at all to create, do it all the time.

In the expected update, you can look forward to KDE's Kaffeine MediaPlayer. It's basically KDE's Gxine Player and offers a few more options.
What I like about this install is that all require codec dependencies are met.
Even with Ubuntu, Mepis etc, this is something I've never seen.

Hello eceryone,
This bug fix/update is going well at the moment, just one problem I'm having with Kaffeine is that it crashes upon exiting of the program, while it appears to all work fine during normal use, this problem to me lets TEENpup down, what do you think.

Hello Everyone,
It's been a journey testing different versions of Kaffeine to find one that doesn't crash in TEENpup 2.14 and I found that version 0.4.3b works perfectly.
I don't know about other user's of Gxine Player, But I've found when playing DVD's in full screen mode that there was the odd flicker and line here and there.
Now with Kaffeine 0.4.3b there's only a perfect clear image.
Another bonus is that this version of Kaffeine is only half the size of the later versions.

Post subject: New User Input About Teen
Subject description: Relates To Other Pups As Well
I've been enjoying TeenPUP because of the large amount of applications it has. I've had issues with wireless connectivity, which, thanks to jonyo and others has come to a solution.
When reforming the next release, can you think about a couple of things
that I have encountered?
First, on the second boot of Teen, I'm stuck at the line where it tries to dicover the network using Rausb0. It says I can hit return to go on, but I haven't had any luck with that. I've had to unplug the wireless USB device to get PUP to boot.
The second issue is related.
I tried unsuccessfully for days to get the Network Wizard to work with my network and wireless router. a lot of different things were thrown at it to make it happen.
jonyo suggested I use RutilT. I did, with no connectivity until I changed from auto DHCP to Static with the router's own settings.
The Wizard wouldn't allow connectivity with that alteration, but the utility did.
Assuming these are two different pieces of software, can't the Wizard
be made to works as the RutilT did?

Hi John,
Great work on this derivative. I was about to install it on some old laptops but noticed this update thread which sounds great.
Do you think it will be available soon, as I'd prefer to wait a week or two, if it is.

things that should be in
the new xcompmanager from MU that does not require dri
the gnoclized icewmconfig
update Pfind and the other Papps
dump seamonkey for firefox iceweasel or opera
Pdrive is looking good now
also modplugplay for XMMS is a must for me
other than that i can't think of anything else right now TeenPup is pretty awesome I even remastered puu_214.sfs with devx_214.sfs so now i even have gcc on a livecd
EDIT add the latest JWM with gradient support and all the themes.... since they are just text files
Taking Puppy Linux to the limit of perfection. meanwhile try "puppy pfix=duct_tape" kernel parem eater.

Thanks John, for inviting community input - its another example of why Puppy's special! TeenPup is so near my ideal Puppy it hurts.
(Me & my eyes thank you for fixing those small menu fonts, btw.)
I've tried about a dozen Puppy varient live CDs so far, and each has its own virtues. Yet none I've seen lets me do four important (to me) things in a browser: view sites with Flash/Java, watching & listening to streaming multimedia and reading PDF docs. It seems many have one or two, and TP has three out of four if the Java install covers the browser (or must one still manually copy .so-and-.so files to .such-and-.such directories?
For PDF: can the Adobe Acrobat browser plugin be made to work with KPDF and/or Foxit Reader? http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/desklinux/
Or will it
work with Acrobat Reader itself? There used to be a Firefox Foxit extension but it appears to have
-appeared. A 'PDF Download' FF ext. exists that might do the job instead, (i.e. call KPDF or Foxit). Can these two functions (i.e. multimedia & PDF) be more simply handled by configuring the 'helper applications' in Seamonkey? If so can Seamonkey or Firefox be pre-configured to do this, 'cause I haven't figured out how that works (i.e. associating file types with applications in SM/FF)? As for Ghostview I suspect it just can't handle the latest PDF standards, its never worked right in any Puppy I've tried.
I really appreciate inclusion of some VoIP softphones - its the 'next big thing'. Would you consider updating Gizmo1beta to the latest Gizmo3? (Debian pkg. which could be dot.pup'd here: http://www.gizmoproject.com/download-linux.html).
Also worthy of your consideration IMHO is Jabbin, a Jabber VoIP client that supports Google Talk, the only GNU/Linux client I know of that does. Just about everyone has a Gmail account these days! Unfortunately their only pkgs. don't include a .deb and I didn't see a source code tarball that could be compiled for Debian or dot.pup'd. I posted about this here: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=22591
and muggins had a run at installing it, noting that it needed the speex & QT libraries. You can check it out here: http://www.jabbin.com/int/
I realize there are a couple of good reasons for going with SeaMonkey (mail client & HTML editor included) but I'd sooner see lightweight replacements for these functions and Firefox with its 1500+ extensions! I understand another reason for retaining SeaMonkey might be that stubborn Flash9 bug that keeps crashing Firefox in some Pups. Lighthouse Puppy beta5 seems to have resolved these - perhaps TazOC has some tips & tweaks about how he did this...
Yikes, long-winded as always! By now you've forgotten what I said to start with so let me reiterate: WTG, John - Teenpup's waaay cool! Cool was the ultimate compliment when
was a teen - but a real live today teen told me: "TeenPup rocks, man - it's
!" Which is a compliment, also - I think...
Welcome to my weird, wild, wonderful, wired world!

Hello macadavy,
I had a play around with trying to get Jabbin to run in TEENpup without luck, I believe it's possible but outside my abilities at the moment.
Also Gizmo 3 dependancies might cause it not to work in TEENpup, I'll have to play with that one as well.
As for JAVA just click on the desktop icon install the dotpup (takes a while to install) and wait for Seamonkey to open. It will open JAVA's test page to confirm that JAVA was installed correctly.
If you have problems do this.
In Seamonkey click on "edit" then "preferences" then "Advanced" and enable JAVA. JAVA should now work.
As for Kpdf and Adobe Acrobat plugin, I haven't tried it. Basically if you go to a website that has a PDF file on it, just click on that PDF and Kpdf should open after a few seconds.
If you really need Adobe Acrobat, Then version 7 from Mandrake, Mandriva will work after unrpming it with the undeb/unrpm dotpup.
At one stage I did have it in TEENpup 2.14 but at about 85mb's in size, I felt as I already had Kpdf in TEENpup 2.14, I could have more apps and still allow the iso to be smaller.

macadavy & john,
i compiled jabbin on pup2.16 & I uploaded a .pet, to rapidshare, here:
It's just over 2M dload, and needs QT libraries and speex installed. Both these are available as .pet packages on puppy's ibiblio site. Oddly it also needs libGL.so.1, which is available by installing the openGl .pup from Mu's site, at dotpups.de/dotpups.

Overall comment: Yes, it is THAT good! Fragrant steamed rice - not too hard, not too soft...surprisingly, quite different from the usual rice-cooker-cooked rice! The well-marinated deep-fried chicken with spices was a great accompaniment to the fragrant steamed rice.
Halal: Yes
I reckon nasi kukus (steamed rice) is yet another East Coast dish. Once again, it was my 1st time eating the Malay nasi kukus with ayam goreng berempah *sigh* So many 1st times of late...
This humble stall by Jalan Beserah in Kuantan serves really delicious nasi kukus & deep-fried chicken. I wouldn't have known the secret that this place has, but oh, thank God for locals who shared this delicious piece of secret with me :D This place is apparently the BEST place for nasi kukus (in Kuantan)! They even take orders for events :D

A very thorough interview by Bob Prechter where he lays out a very strong case for deflation. There is a ton of good information on market psychology, probably the best interview I've heard from him -well worth the time to listen.

Amid financial woes and turmoil, Winsted board keeps town manager Dale Martin
WINSTED >> While the Board of Selectmen had harsh words for town manager Dale Martin during his annual performance review, the board took no action on Martin's status during a special meeting on Wednesday.
"Thank you for your candor," said Martin after the review.
Martin was praised for his communications with the Board of Selectmen, although he was criticized for his lack of communication with the board regarding the town's finances. Those finances were discussed in an executive session following the performance review.
"I think, like anything else in this world, everything revolves around money," said Selectman Ken Fracasso. "If we don't have a CEO who has a full understanding of financial responsibilities, we're behind the 8 ball."
Originally, the Board of Selectmen had decided to hold Martin's performance review on Wednesday. But following the board's Jan. 7 meeting, Fracasso had requested to hold a special meeting on Jan. 12 to discuss possibly firing Martin. That meeting, as well as a Jan. 11 meeting to discuss hiring a financial liaison to the Selectmen, was canceled after town attorney Kevin Nelligan brought up issues with the town's audit.
"When we realized we were getting low on cash," Fracasso said, "we should have gotten weekly updates, not monthly."
Winsted's general fund had dipped dangerously low over recent months, and the cash crisis came to a head at the Jan. 7 Board of Selectmen meeting. The announcement that the town has begun receiving tax revenues at a faster clip than expected -- 63 percent of the town's taxes have already come in, according to Winchester mayor Maryann Welcome -- but Fracasso said that the town would run out of money by the end of the fiscal year without a supplemental tax.
"A professional town manager would have looked at all the financial obligations first," said Fracasso. "We fell behind right from the beginning."
Firing Martin had been perceived as a partisan issue, as Fracasso had called for the special meeting on Jan. 12. Notably, Second Selectman Candy Perez deferred until after the rest of the board had spoken, anticipating Fracasso's remarks.
"I think I'd like to hear from Ken," said Perez. "He had a lot of things to say when he wanted to call for the meeting."
Selectman Glenn Albanesius, who is the board's other Republican, did not comment, beyond remarking that he hoped to continue his relationship with Martin. Selectman George Closson, who spoke at length during the review, said that Martin needed to improve his performance in several key fields, mostly involving financial matters.
Closson said that while Martin has communicated capably with the board, his grasp on the town's general fund has been lacking. During his comments, Closson noted that Martin was unable to answer Fracasso's questions regarding the town's general fund balance during Board of Selectmen meetings for months, saying that "as a result, the town manager does not have an understanding of the town's cash flow."
"Before all of this was going on in October," Closson said, "I think this really goes back to the prior period. You're really grasping it now."
Subsequently, Closson also said that Martin's ability to develop policies efficiently was also hamstrung by his lack of a grasp on Winsted's financial status. The financial issues plaguing Winsted have officially escalated into a criminal matter, according to town attorney Kevin Nelligan, who debriefed the Selectmen on the accounting problems in an executive session following Martin's performance review.
"Until you understand the problem," Closson asked, "how can you come up with a complete grasp of it?"
The board originally planned on holding Martin's performance evaluation in executive session, but Martin asked to hold the review in public. Martin had done the same at his previous performance review, and the town manager was praised for his decision to have the board discuss his performance to an open audience. However, Perez did state that "you need to communicate with this board more."
"When there is a vacuum that develops out there because there is not information out there to fill it, people have rushed to fill it with innuendo," Perez said. "Some communication would have alleviated that."
