Greg first noticed some fatigue while running marathons to raise money to fight cancer, and within a year he could barely run a mile. He told himself to deal with it, but he knew something wasn't right and went to a doctor. A physical revealed nothing, but soon after that he went to a health fair and was diagnosed with low iron. A colonoscopy revealed a baseball sized tumor, and Greg was diagnosed with stage III colon cancer at 28.
After surgery and chemotherapy, Greg was anxious to get his life back. He began hiking and running again and set out to tackle his biggest challenge yet. In 2007, he reached the summit of Mount Aconcagua, the highest mountain in Argentina, in honor of all people battling cancer.
Greg uses his strength and the strength of his family to keep him going, and he credits cancer for tempering his ultra-competitive nature. Now he doesn't always have to win. He's just thankful to be in the race.
I guess, for me, the beginning was well before my diagnosis, the day of July 19th, 1999. It was a hot and hazy day in Anchorage, Alaska. I had just graduated from college, I had just finished training and raising $4000 for the Leukemia Society of America to fund a young girl's chemotherapy in Greeley, Colorado, and I was running the midnight sun marathon on her behalf. The irony was that, at the very same time, a cancerous tumor was growing much larger and starting to rear its ugly head within my own colon. I completed my first ever marathon that day, among the moose and mountains, and was naive to the fact that a cancerous tumor was growing in my ascending colon. I was healthy, inspired, and excited that I had just qualified for the Boston marathon, but from that point on, and for the next two years, my health declined rapidly. It's strange how life can take such a dramatic turn so suddenly.
My diagnosis was May 8, 2001. I was 28 ripe years old. Between July 19th, 1999 and May, 2001, I had run a few more races and climbed some peaks in Colorado, but progressively had gotten more and more tired – the only symptom I had was that of being tired all the time. I remember one day at a ski slope with my family when I asked to just sit at the base in the ski lodge throughout the afternoon – and if you knew how much I loved to Telemark ski – you would realize that I was indeed exhausted. What was surprising to me was that I had just run a marathon, yet a year later I was struggling to run a mile.
During the fall of 1999, I went into my general practitioner and said I was feeling tired. "What's the deal?" I would ask. My doctor then proceeded to only do a basic physical and didn't find anything wrong, so I just kind of got passed off. This was a general practitioner in Fort Collins, Colorado, along the idyllic Spring Creek, in what has been dubbed the #1 "Choice City" place to live in America. I was in a supposed paradise where nothing ever bad ever seems to happen. In hindsight, I see the disappointment in how the clinic failed to do a thorough evaluation, and how, if they had, I might have found my tumor much earlier due to my sever anemia and iron deficiency.
Of course, I passed my symptoms of fatigue off as working too hard, running too hard, and all of that. Luckily though, I was working at CSU and heard about a faculty health fair to promote healthy lifestyles. So I went to the fair and received a full blood scan. That's when they discovered that my iron was really low and my red blood cells were also low, like 2/3 of a normal red blood cell count. I was told to get further examination, so I went back to my general practitioner and he thought I had an ulcer or some bleeding, and instructed me to get a colonoscopy. So I went to a GI doctor. It's now May 8th, 2001, the day of my colonoscopy, the day my GI found the baseball sized tumor in my ascending colon. No biopsy was need – colon cancer was a sure bet. Eventually, the location of the baseball ended up being a great thing because it allowed for surgical removal.
The diagnosis came as a shock to me and my whole family, but there was little time to process the details as a surgery was required as soon as possible. My surgeon performed my hemicolonectomy on May 23rd, 2001, as soon as they could get me in, due to the severity of my situation. When it was all said and done, 12 lymph nodes were removed, many affected, leading to a stage III diagnosis.
On June 30th, 2001, I started chemotherapy. It was a weekly regime, once a week every Thursday. It was CPT-11 (Camptosar) and 5FU and Leucovorin (my three chemo agents like the three musketeers with a mission). It was designed to be a difficult treatment regime since I was young. Initially, I did this routine once a week for four weeks on and one week off. That turned out to be a bad idea because the regime turned out to be too much. I made it through the first round fine, but by the second or maybe the third round, the chemotherapy was accumulating in my body to such a degree that I ended up hospitalized for a week – I couldn't keep anything down, I was losing fluids, and I was losing weight. IV's were needed once again – a familiar friend from my surgery. My oncologist said "okay, we're going to do three on, one off, so it should be a little bit more tolerable." This new regime worked out much better.
So, this new regime went on for nine long months. Coincidentally, I finished my last chemo treatment on Valentine's Day, Feb 14th, 2002. I kind of skipped the whole Valentine's party, no chocolate that day! Throughout the whole process, the thing that was strange for me was realizing that back in 1999, when I finished 34th in my marathon out of 1,000+ runners and qualified for the Boston Marathon, I was simultaneously raising money for something that I had had no experience with, but was soon to experience first hand. I felt like I was doing a good thing by raising money for Leukemia, yet at the same time was harboring my own cancer. I was glad to be raising money for that cause, and now I see the need even more!
My family isn't unique to cancer, we have a family history that rivals other stories. My mom has had breast cancer twice now. She was diagnosed once in 1994 and then again in 2002 – her first bout brought on surgery and the second chemotherapy. My dad has had kidney cancer twice now, with recurring bladder cancer. He recently finished his second surgery at the Cleveland Clinic – the first brought about the removal of one kidney and the second precariously removed a tumor on his one remaining kidney. Each bout for him has brought on subsequent bladder cancer and the need for regular local chemotherapy.
Those are the facts. My cancer life, and the cancer lives of my family, in a factoid.
After chemo, I of course wanted to get back to life. I started running again, and hiking, and mountaineering. One thing led to the next. I ran a few half marathons and discovered a Colorado State University-led expedition to climb Cerro Aconcagua, Spanish for Mount Aconcagua. Aconcagua (22,840 feet) is the highest mountain outside of Asia. It is one of the Seven Summits – the highest in South America. The climb was awesome. There were not many people on our remote route. We were on the mountain 13 days, and the whole deal was 3 weeks. All my life I had dreamed of being part of a big expedition, yet while doing the climb, the only reason I saw for doing it was to do it was for everyone afflicted with cancer. I had had it up to here with cancer in my own family, and personally, and so my Aconcagua expedition was dedicated to all people fighting and afflicted by cancer.
How did it feel to be so healthy and be diagnosed?
I never once had a cigarette in my entire life, so I certainly wasn't expecting any kind of cancer. My mom's brother died of lung cancer, so my brain immediately thought of cancer as smoking-related, but there are so many other cancers that just happen, regardless of a person's lifestyle. I wasn't expecting cancer because I had done everything I thought I could have done to live a healthy life up until diagnosis.
When I wasn't feeling good, I knew that something was wrong I was getting skinny and pale, kind of anorexic-looking. In retrospect, I look at pictures of myself and realize just how sick I was staring to look.
I asked "why me?", but I wasn't focused on anything I could have done to prevent it. I just think cancer happens. Things in life happen like that. For me, I think that things happen for a reason. It shed light on my ultra-competitiveness. It made me think and focus and remind myself that I didn't have to win every race in the world to be happy. I just had to be healthy to be happy. If you are too active, you are just not enjoying things, the finer things in life, as much as you could be enjoying them. I learned to smell the roses – yes a cliché, but it was true for me.
Was your athletic lifestyle a positive or negative?
You get stubborn, like "I'm fine." You learn to live with pain, as an athlete, so when you're uncomfortable you don't think it's a problem. You are used to, at mile 9 in a half marathon, hurting. But you know how to run through it to get to mile 13.You also tend to be in tune with your body, you listen to your body as an athlete. Even through I was ignoring my cancer, thinking "I'll be fine, I'm just tired," I do think that I had an extra sense that something was wrong. I evaluated my running regularly. As soon as my abilities went downhill, I began trying to figure out what was wrong. Yet – I couldn't figure it out. It's kind of like my athletic lifestyle was a negative because it made me wait longer to get evaluated than maybe I should have, yet it was a positive because it ultimately made me get an answer.
An illness heightens the awareness of your own body, even if you just break an arm or something, and you think about your body differently. I think that my young age, my feeling invulnerable, played into it. I thought I can do anything, I just ran this marathon. You are young and in your prime so to speak, and you're just moving forward and life is good. And then you have a realization, a wake up and smell the coffee kind of diagnosis. I always wish I could come up with this eloquent, magical sentence that are words of wisdom for people, but I can never get the words I want.
The period between the marathon and diagnosis I see as plain Jane life. It's the busyness of everyday life that made me be too busy to pay attention to what was going on with me physically. I had just graduated in 1999 with my master's degree and had started a new job in Denver – an environmental company doing a lot of mine land reclamation. My background is in botany, I'm a plant ecologist. I was in the middle of a lot of things; life changes, graduation, moving, job, the marathon. I started the new job and it didn't work out so well. It was a rat race and I was only there about three months before I got in touch with a colleague who ended up helping me find a job at Colorado State University. It was this busyness, this new job, a career direction change, breaking up with a girlfriend, that kind of thing, that blurred my vision. My point is that you are so busy that you don't pay attention to the signs your body is giving you seriously. My body was giving me the signs, but I was ignoring them because I was so wrapped up in life's busyness. That time, 2000, was really me not paying attention to the signs.
Did you ever think you could have cancer?
For me, before my colonoscopy, my doctor was palpating my belly. For some reason, at that moment, I knew I had cancer (it was a premonition or something). But before that, I never thought I would have cancer. I was healthy and did not drink much, never smoked, and lived a healthy, active lifestyle. I had no reason to expect that I would get cancer. I'm grateful to be here for sure, it's almost like am I making the most of every day b/c I am so lucky to be here.
When I discovered The Colon Club online, I was very excited because it was focused on early-onset colon cancer. It's so important. I had never heard of colon cancer before, I was very healthy and my favorite food was broccoli for heaven's sake! I was healthy and hadn't heard of it, so I didn't think about it at all. It's not a household name, maybe it is more so above 50, but up until then you just don't hear about it. So, what The Colon Club is doing (raising awareness) is very important.
Finally, I am grateful to my family, God, my friends, and all those who helped me fight my colon cancer. I wish my loved ones didn't have to watch me go through my chemo – why did my brother have to watch his little brother have cancer? It affects so many people, not just the one having cancer. He's seen it all, in different ways. My whole family had to suffer in ways that now I have seen – watching loved ones suffer and struggle to fight it. Yet – through it all there is hope. And that is enough for me to put my faith in, to use to move forward, to climb as high as angels among the Andes Mountains between Argentina and Chile, to soar and be free and support others as those who have supported me.


The 45BC-10 is a KEMAR with prepolarized ear simulators and anthropometric pinnae for 2-channel ear and headphone test.
The main configuration specific components of the 45BC-10 are the GRAS RA0045-S1 Ear Simulator According to 60318-4 and the KB5000/KB50001 Anthropometric Pinnae.
Read more about RA0045-S1 Ear Simulator.
The external shape of the pinna is identical to that of the standardized KEMAR pinna, but concha and ear canal have been modified so that they closely mimic the properties of a real human ear. The ear canal has been extended and is now an integral part of the pinna, which seals directly against the ear simulator. Like the human ear, the ear canal has the 1st and 2nd bend, and the interface with the concha is oval. Fit and insertion consistency are much improved over the cylindrically or conically shaped ear canal extensions that are used with the standardized pinna.
Therefore, the 45BC-10 KEMAR is ideal for accurate and repeatable testing of headphones, earphones and in-ear hearing protectors. In addition to this, the built-in mouth simulator makes it ideal for accurate and repeatable testing of headsets..

My name is Frank Smits. After my industry career with Exxon Chemical, I have worked for over 20 years as a business change, leadership and transformation consultant. I started in 1996 with PricewaterhouseCoopers, then with the specialised change consultancy Partners for Change Ltd and since 2002 as an independent management consultant via my own business….


Every so often some academic, researcher, leadership guru, former somebody, or current wannabe writes a book that catches on and becomes the latest and greatest business or self-help fad.
They're mostly old concepts repackaged with catchy new names, trite ideas that go viral and develop cult-like followings, or one person's way of doing things that all the pod people think they should copy so they can be just like him.
I can count on one hand the number of management or business concepts that I thought were groundbreaking or really resonated with me over the past 30 years. The One Minute Manager, Gary Hamel's Core Competency, the Tao of Leadership, and perhaps a few others. I'm sure they'll come to me later.
You can probably tell that I have little patience for trendy fads. They don't work, waste precious time, turn you into a clone, and distract you from what you should be doing: achieving great things and otherwise having a good time.
If you don't want to become a zombie, then don't drink the Kool-Aid. Avoid these fads in 2013 and beyond.
First came the invasion of black mock turtlenecks, jeans, and sneakers. Then folks began mimicking his speaking style. Now executives and entrepreneurs are trying to clone the Apple icon's management ideas. Unfortunately, you can't just "copy and paste" talent, wisdom, or breakthrough leadership. It just doesn't work that way.
Listen to this. The Steve Jobs that everyone is trying to copy, the one who turned around Apple, isn't even the same Steve Jobs whose toxic management style got him fired from the company he founded. That tragic and painful event changed him. It was a process he had to go through. That's what created the guy who built the world's biggest technology company. It's called experience. You can't clone it.
Of course, every executive and business leader wants employees to love their jobs and feel like they're important to the company's success. That's a no-brainer. It's also nothing new. The way to get employees motivated is by creating a culture where they really are empowered, where they really do make a difference, where they're challenged and supported. It isn't rocket science and you don't have to hire Gallup to do it.
Personal productivity and time management.
When did squeezing every minute of productivity out of the day become a national obsession? Let me tell you something. If you're hopelessly disorganized, if you're not a morning person, if you have an office that looks like it was hit by a tornado, if you haven't cleaned up your inbox in three years, that doesn't mean you're going to be broke and miserable. It just means you're like most of the successful and innovative people I've known over the years.
And if you still need to find more time, just do what I do. Less. Less is more. Prioritize. You'll be more successful and happier. Just like that.
Traditional command-and-control style leadership is out. Soft skills are in. Who wouldn't want an empathetic and self-aware CEO? The problem with the latest fad du jour, emotional intelligence, is that it's impossible to measure objectively and it's easy to game the questions. Also, if EI is really a predictor of business success, then how do you account for Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Larry Ellison, Larry Page, Mark Zuckerberg, and dozens of other highly successful entrepreneurs and executives? That's right; you can't.
The whole "strengths" movement -- also brought to us by the good research folks at Gallup -- strikes me as another one of those "Good to Great" moments where what maybe worked for some companies in the past doesn't do squat for others in the future.
Look, this is really simple. We live in a fast-paced, ever-changing business world. If you've got strengths you can translate into competitive advantage, focus on them. If, however, you have significant weaknesses that might result in you shooting yourself in the foot and taking others down with you, then ignoring them may spell disaster.
Here's the thing. People who follow fads are just that. They're followers. Don't do that. Be yourself. Create your own culture. Lead. I have faith in you. Really.


outside the general store, and of course had to go inside to look for more.
I only came across two other crocheted items, but this is what really drew my attention, tucked in a corner, in a basket.
I flipped through the basket, which had a mix of these and some modern pattern books and magazines. I finally selected this issue and went to pay for it. The lady asked me if I knew how to crochet. I replied that I did, and that I hoped that there would be some good patterns inside. I also asked if this was a real magazine, and she replied that it was marked 'vintage' on the price tag, so it was real.
I've since researched on the internet, and yes, there was a Needlecraft magazine in print back then, which seems to have morphed into Needlecraft for Today in the 1970's and 1980's. I don't know if it's morphed into another version for today, or if it's out of print, as I didn't see anything else after June 1982. There are other sites, such as eBay and those for antiques, that sell these issues, and I did find one site selling this same issue No. 9 that I have. The page featuring the an article on the latest shirtwaists and skirts even made it to Pinterest several months ago. So there's a few of these magazines still floating around out there.
Thankfully this issue had a lot of crochet-related items, since some issues I saw while researching had mostly sewing and tatting articles. I chose this issue because I thought I could give the project on the front page a try. I notice that there are a lot of trebles in the pattern, but maybe this is because the thread they used was so fine.
Doilies … (this is another one I'd like to try – at least it's in No. 30 thread, so maybe I can start with this).
And I thought I had discovered a new type of crochet – the Maltese crochet! But, it was just another name for Hairpin Crochet – which I haven't tried either, because I think it uses up too much yarn.
Here's a glimpse on the other pages of the magazine.

And for my last reply tonight, here is a recording of the door slamming which I took tonight. Using FL studio, I have determined that there is a considerable amount of noise above 250hz, but as suspected there is much below that which seems to be insurmountable and is where most of the volume is concentrated. I'd say 100hz-200hz is where most of the unblockable volume is. Then again I am not sure if the phone has trouble recording lower than that. It could be that there are additional low frequencies that I am not capturing.
This recording was taken from my iphone 5c from an open window. I'd estimate there is 60-70 feet between the phone and the source vehicle. You can even hear the window vibrate somewhat due to the low frequency sound. Tragic, just tragic. I just wish I could make some db measurements to go by. Good meters are a lot.

Q: Javascript problem in Firefox I know it's a long shot with so little details I can provide, but here's the problem:
I have an asp.net (3.5) application, which I'm trying to run on IE,Firefox and Chrome.
On IE and Chrome EVERYTHING works just fine, but Firefox causes trouble:
On Firefox, when clicking SOME of the link buttons I have,the status bar shows the relevant javascript:__doPostBack('...',") call, but nothing happens (no post back or anything..the button simply doesn't respond).
An example <asp:LinkButton>
<asp:LinkButton ID="bAccountID" onClick="ViewAccountDetails" runat="server"
    CommandName='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Users_aID") %>'>
        <%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "iAccountID") %>
</asp:LinkButton>

Important to say:

*

*Some of the links do work on Firefox, and as far as I can see all .aspx pages the buttons point to were designed the same.

*Again, on IE and Chrome - NO PROBLEM!

*Javascript in Firefox is enabled.

*tried to run debug and put a break point in a relevant eventhandler for one of the clicks - simply doesn't go there.

*An example for a standard non-working linkbutton:

Any smart and well explained idea will be highly appreciated!

A: The best place to start would be to get the "Firebug" plugin for Firefox.
What will probably happen when you click the problem links is that a JavaScript error will appear in Firebug and show you exactly where the problem lies.
It's a free download, which you can find by clicking on Tools > Add-Ons in the Firefox menu.

A: Try to use Internet Explorer and see if the same thing occurs, if not then use FireBug as @Sohnee says.

A: I've had a problem like this in the past specifically with firefox and found that re-registering the framework with iis via aspnet_regiis.exe -i can sometimes fix the problem.

In a post-apocalypse tale, a long-missing moon rock, a killing in a New Mexico canyon, a murderously ambitious scientist, and other factors contribute to the world's greatest scientific discovery.
Stronger writing than is common in the genre, and a plot with positive shades of Michael Crichton.
Dinos and thriller and mystery oh my! These are a few of my favorite things. Best book ever!
Mild-mannered do-gooder Tom Broadbent is riding his horse home across the New Mexican desert when he stumbles upon a man dying from gunshot wounds. The man thrusts a tattered notebook into Tom?s hands and, with his final breath, begs Tom to ?bring this to my daughter.? Of course, it?s not just any old everyday notebook. It contains a coded map leading to an unprecedented scientific discovery: The perfectly preserved remains of a tyrannosaurus rex. This is a secret worth killing for, and soon Tom and his pretty wife Sally are in danger from a jailbird assassin, a ruthless British paleontologist, and a deadly squad of undercover army operatives. This colorful cast of characters also includes an ex-CIA agent turned monk-in-training and a talented lab assistant languishing in the forgotten depths of the American Museum of Natural History. Over-the-top? You bet, and it?s a ton of fun. Author Douglas Preston has a fine grip on what makes a good thriller?good guys, bad guys, cliffhanger chapter endings, a pinch of astounding scientific theory, and intrigue and suspense up the wazoo.

I finally came about to extract XOR gates from cnf formulas. First thing I wanted to check how much of the literals come from XOR clauses on a few instances from SAT09 competition. The table below suggest that handing XOR gates is promising.
Update: I finished implemented xor-gates and fixed most of the bugs. The change required to change the way I store clauses. Until now clauses were stored as: a b c ... 0. Now they are stored as (length,type) a b c ..., where length is the length of the clause, type is OR/XOR/NXOR and (length, type) means that length and type encoded together as a single integer. The most basic solver is working now, but except for equivalent literals renaming other simplification algorithms are not functional. The graph below shows the impact of handling XOR-gates.
The benefits of handing xor gates are multiple. First formulas are much shorter because xor gates requires exponential number of CNF clauses. This means that it is less costly to move instances around. Second the branch heuristic is less fooled by almost identical clauses. Third most other algorithms can safely ignore xor clauses to a bonus speedup. In conclusion I'm glad I spent the last few days refactoring STRUCTure.
Update: When I enabled all reasoning algorithms (e.g. hyper binary resolution, sub-summing, etc.) the performance difference changed dramatically. It leads me to believe that initial evaluations contained a bug. The graph below shoes the performance of STRUCTure behaves with and without xor gates. It seems that handling xor gates helps on a few instances, but the instances from AProvE class are better of without them.

Rotational malalignment after intramedullary fixation of trochanteric fractures
Rajendra Annappa, Harramb Mittal, Surendra Umesh Kamath, Santhosh Rai, Pooja Kundapur Suresh, Nabeel Mohammed
Department of Radio Diagnosis and Imaging, Kasturba Medical College, Mangalore
Department of Pathology, Kasturba Medical College, Mangalore
Introduction: Rotational malalignment after intramedullary fixation of fractures of the shaft of femur and tibia has been assessed by many studies but less frequently after intramedullary fixation of intertrochanteric fractures. Intertrochanteric fractures are managed by closed reduction in a traction table and fixation either by dynamic hip screw or proximal femoral nail under image intensifier. Reduction is checked intraoperatively by antero-posterior and lateral views with image intensifier in which rotational alignment cannot be assessed. Aim: To study the rotational malalignment in the operated limb compared to normal limb by computed tomography (CT). Materials and Methods: A prospective study was conducted on 70 patients at Kasturba Medical College and allied hospitals with intertrochanteric fractures with intramedullary fixation and with normal anatomy on opposite side. Postoperative CT with pelvis and knee was done and compared for rotational alignment. Results: The mean anteversion on the normal side was 13.20. The mean anteversion on the operated side was 15.70. The mean rotational malalignment was 9.70; there was internal rotational deformity in 41 cases (58.6%) and external rotational deformity in 29 cases (41.4%) with Grade III malrotation in 17 (24.3%) cases. Conclusion: Rotational malalignment postoperatively is frequently present and needs to be corrected intraoperatively by improving assessment methods.

TRYING TO FIND YOURSELF IN THE TOUGHEST TIMES
"It is not the critic who counts. . . . The credit belongs to the man in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly
. . . and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."
— Teddy Roosevelt
Now, that's a powerful quote. You don't turn to that quote unless you need it. Adam Ballinger needed it. His father, a teacher, sent it in a letter. That letter now hangs on Ballinger's apartment wall in this, the last year of his college basketball career.
And more and more he thinks it's the greatest gift he has ever gotten.
"Obviously," says the Michigan State senior, with the resignation of someone who has had this conversation too many times, "the season hasn't gone the way I expected."
Not unless he expected to lose his starter's role, visit a sports psychologist, be pitied, criticized, all but forgotten, and ultimately turned into a curiosity sentence: "What's the matter with Adam?"
Ballinger, you see, had the misfortune of hitting an oil slick when the checkered flag was in sight. College basketball is supposed to be a linear thing. You get older, you get better, you get better, you score more, you score more, you're the man.
Each season for Ballinger had been better than the last. He came into this year as a senior co-captain, the second-most experienced player on the squad. He was a starting forward. A go-to guy. Big things were expected.
But big things never came.
Unless you count big confusion.
Poor play, tougher losses
He was off almost from the start. His shot wasn't falling. He seemed to grow tentative. His rebounding suffered. Pretty soon, Ballinger was like that Ben Stiller character in "Meet the Parents" — no matter how earnestly he tried, nothing worked out. He was held scoreless against Loyola (Ill.). He turned the ball over three times in five minutes against Michigan. His shooting went south. And then it really went south.
"The worst part wasn't just my play," he says, after seeing his scoring and rebounding stats virtually cut in half from last season. "The worst part was we were losing games that I know, if I could have played better, we could have won."
No one could figure it out. What's the matter with Adam? Tom Izzo, his coach, tried everything — yelling, coddling, noise, quiet — until finally, he benched him.
"I don't think I've ever felt for a kid more than him," Izzo said.
Ballinger, as stumped as anyone, tried every path out of the maze. He remembers sitting with a sports psychologist, feeling foolish. He remembers friends giving him advice. "They'd say, 'Go away somewhere.' But I'm a college student, where am I gonna go?"
Sometimes, for solace, Ballinger would visit the gym late at night and just shoot, by himself, feeling the floor, the ball, the heat. It was like smoothing the dirt of a fox hole. Only, as Ballinger admits, "my enemy was thinking."
A final shining moment
But lest you think this is some sob story, remember what college is supposed to be about: learning. Ballinger, at 6-feet-9 and 250 pounds, had always been tagged "a basketball player" — from Indiana, no less — and as he advanced, the lights all seemed to be turning green.
This year he discovered that green isn't promised. He learned who really cares about him. He learned the solace of good friends and good parents. When his father mailed him the Roosevelt quote, he cherished both the letter and the unconditional support it took to send it.
And then came a night against Iowa earlier this month, senior night at the Breslin Center. And like an old dog bursting through the screen door, Ballinger's game came running back to him. He scored 22 points, a career high, including a one-handed slam that brought his teammates swarming happily around him.
In a Cinderella story, that game would have led to more like it. Instead, Ballinger slipped back to the bench, a few minutes here, a few shots there. Life is not Cinderella. He knows that now.
He knows something else, too: He knows he truly cares about the team, because he is able to say, "I don't care if I play 10 minutes or 200, as long as we win" — and mean it. His knows he truly loves the sport, because instead of chucking it in disgust, he wants to keep playing somewhere, anywhere, next year.
Friday night, against Maryland in the Sweet 16, could be his last college game. Does he dream of coming off the bench and finding the old touch? Sure. But if it doesn't happen, he's ready for that, too.
"In a way, it's been a great life lesson," he says. "I feel like I could go through anything now."And, as Teddy said, his place will never be among those cold and timid souls. Adam Ballinger has taken a lot of hits this year. His character has proven bulletproof.

Resurfacing work on a major road in Basingstoke's taking place over 7 nights.
The A30 London Road in Old Basing will be closed overnight Monday to Friday from the junction with Byfleet Avenue to the junction with Greywell Road between the hours of 7.00pm and 06.00 am, starting today.
It's part of Hampshire's £17 million programme of resurfacing work.
A fully signed diversion route will be in place and every effort will be made to allow access to properties.
Before the resurfacing is carried out, some preliminary kerb and ironwork replacement will be carried out, using temporary traffic lights.
Councillor Mel Kendal, Deputy Leader and Executive Member for Environment and Transport said: "This work on a major road is essential to extend its life and make it more resilient for the future. Operation Resilience is a planned £17 million programme of work on Hampshire's roads over the next year and marks a significant shift away from reactive to planned maintenance."

David Harbour reveals first pic as new Hellboy
By Robin-Leigh Chetty 14 September 2017 | Categories: News
Back in May, we covered a story of a new Hellboy movie being in the works. The news was bittersweet, as the director that helmed the first two Hellboy flicks, Guillermo Del Toro, would not be handling the latest one. Ron Perlman, who donned the red makeup and stone hand for the role of Hellboy would also not be returning, with Red going to Stranger Things actor David Harbour instead.
Now the first pic of the new Hellboy has been released, and Harbour certainly looks the part, albeit unrecognisable from any of the other roles we've seen him in. He also appears to have gotten a gym membership, and maintains the buff look we've come to know from the characters on-screen portrayals.
Compared to Perlman's version, this Hellboy's shade of red appears to be a touch darker, but that could be the lighting. His stone hand is also different, and seems to have a bit more of a metal look to it.
Holy crap #Hellboy #FirstLook pic.twitter.com/dpryXiHDHE
— Hellboy (@HellboyMovie) September 13, 2017
Apart from this first image of our anti-hero, little is known about this new Hellboy flick, with Neil Marshall (The Descent, Game of Thrones) set to direct. Set to come out sometime in 2018, hopefully more images will be forthcoming over the next few months.

Defence food lab set for space
We may not yet know who will eventually ride to space on the first Indian human mission in 2022, but some of the desi bites they may eat during those five days are already here, courtesy the Defence Food Research Laboratory (DFRL).
DFRL, Mysuru, the food research centre of the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO), says it is geared to feed Indian astronauts with tasty ready-to-eats and easy-to-makes.
Space foods — just as those meant for pilots, sailors or ground troops — should keep astronauts going physically and mentally over many days in alien conditions. They must keep hunger, depression, infections and fatigue at bay, and fortify astronauts with nourishment, high energy, alertness and immunity to diseases. Combating gravity-related disorientation and motion sickness while keeping bodily functions normal are other criteria.
Last month, the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) was tasked with sending out a Human Space Flight in the next four years.

This is a JHS Pedals Pollinator Fuzz pedal. It works perfect & is in excellent condition (see pics). Pedal only, no box.
Since the early days of Rock Roll, no other pedal has made its way on more recordings, stages, and rigs than the classic Fuzz Face. The Pollinator is JHS Pedals' take on a classic design but with some huge improvements.The original Fuzz Face pedals have very low output volume, so JHS Pedals tripled the available headroom! You can achieve a wider range of tones now because even at lower gain settings, the volume you need is there. Another addition is the external bias knob. This allows you to fine-tune just the right amount of power to the perfectly hand-matched germanium AC128 transistors inside. The bass is tight and focused but still classic. The highs are as crisp as anything heard in a vintage design. This Fuzz cleans up with your guitar's volume quite nicely too... if you're into that!
This pedal requires standard 9V DC Negative power and measures 2.2 x4.3 x1.5 Hand-built by real people in Kansas City, Missouri.

TEMP_FILE=/home/eceadcb/Test_Directory_5/temp.txt

echo "ABC" >> ${TEMP_FILE}
for i in $(<Active_cms.txt)
do
    echo "ABC1" >> ${TEMP_FILE}
    echo "$i" >> ${TEMP_FILE}
done

When I run this script manually, it runs just fine. But when I schedule it in crontab, only ABC goes in the TEMP_FILE and nothing from loop gets into the file.

I think Hippocampus Press might've rushed a bit on this one. The ToC is inaccurate. It lists my poems on pages 34, 80, and 102. My poems are really on pages 35, 77, and 100. So I'm sure everyone else's poems are off as well. There's also an inconsistency that I noticed in 2 of my poems. My poem, A Queen in Hell, is dedicated to Poe and a few spaces underneath the title it reads 'For Edgar Allan Poe'. My poem, A Perfect Rose, is dedicated to French and directly underneath the title it reads '(For Nora May French)'. That may seem like nothing to some, but it bugs me. They should look the same and be in the same spot. Other than that though, the book is filled with great authors that I look forward to reading. This should prove to be another excellent volume of weird poetry from Hippocampus Press.

The Bethlehem Waterworks, also known as the Old Waterworks or 1762 Waterworks, is believed to be the oldest pump-powered public water supply in what is now the United States.  The pumphouse, which includes original and replica equipment, is located in the Colonial Industrial Quarter of downtown Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, between the Monocacy Creek and Main Street.  It was declared a National Historic Civil Engineering Landmark in 1971, an American Water Landmark in 1971, and a National Historic Landmark in 1981. The building is a contributing property to the Historic Moravian Bethlehem District which was designated as a National Historic Landmark District in 2012 and later named to the U.S. Tentative List in 2016 for nomination to the World Heritage List.

Description and history
The first Waterworks within Bethlehem was designed and built by millwright Hans Chistoph Christensen from Denmark in 1755 to more efficiently bring water from the spring at the bottom of the hill to the top of the hill where most of the living quarters could be found. This spring provided a flow of eight hundred gallons per minute, enough to provide water for drinking, cooking, and bathing, as well as water in case of fire.

The first building was a wooden structure designed by Hans and described by Robert Rau "the machinery was placed in a frame building, 19 by 22, a few yards east of the oil and bark mill, whither the spring water was led by a conduit into a cistern. The pump was made of lignum vitae (a hard and heavy tropical wood), the cylinder being five inches in diameter. The water was forced through wooden pipes up the hill into a wooden reservoir or distributing tank built within the little square (the site now occupied by the Moravian Church). The pipes were bored hemlock logs which had been floated down the Lehigh River from Gnadenhuetten on the Mahoning." Persistent issues with leaking and bursting pipes kept this first structure from being fully completed, despite switching from wood to lead pipes. Growing demand for water and a more efficient system required enlargement of the plant, as well as more powerful machinery. Hans later built the limestone Waterworks in 1762 to meet these needs and received thirty shillings in payment for his work.

The limestone Waterworks building is located in the floodplain of Monocacy Creek in the Colonial Industrial Quarter, an important part of the historic district of Bethlehem.  It is a 2-1/2 story building, built out of limestone rubble, that is about  square and covered by a red tile roof.  It is set over an otherwise open holding pit, which was originally fed by a wood-lined trench from a nearby spring.  There are doors on three sides, one of which is at a higher elevation owing to the sloping terrain; it provides access to a storage area on the upper level, while the other two provide access to the mechanisms on the inside.  The machinery includes a replica waterwheel, reproduced from the original master craftsman's drawings which were preserved.

In colonial Bethlehem, water power replaced human and horse power. The wheel was originally turned by water supplied from the creek and provided the power needed to move water up to the settlement above. The power generated by one water wheel was the equivalent of 100 men and an undershot waterwheel powered three cast-iron pumps, forcing the water through pipes (originally wooden, later lead) into a collecting tower located nearly 94 feet uphill where Central Moravian Church stands today. From the tower, gravity carried the water into five separate cisterns on the hillside to be used by the various Choir houses. Hans' system was imperfect, with overpressure bursting wooden pipes and other problems.

Conflict later arose when the city's growth continued but the power supplied by Monocacy Creek could not match. Both the Waterworks and the Oil Mill used the same tail race to supply the power for their needs and by the early 1800s the Oil Mill had to halt productivity for two days out of the week so the Waterworks could fill the town's reservoirs. The Waterworks operations were later relocated to the Oil Mill building in 1832 due to an increase on water demands from the town that the 1762 Waterworks could not meet. The Oil Mill operated as the new Waterworks for 81 years, serving the continually growing community well into the early twentieth century. Water quality from the spring soon became a major issue with epidemics of typhoid and dysentery being traced to the water supply and, under order of the Pennsylvania Commissioner of Health, the waterworks operations were shut down permanently in January 1913.

The system is believed to be the first pump-powered water supply to be implemented in what is now the United States. The town of Boston, Massachusetts had a municipal water supply as early as 1652, but it was purely powered by gravity. This European style of technology for municipal water distribution was not matched in America until the Philadelphia water system was completed in 1801.

Archaeological studies were conducted at the Waterworks site in 1964 and 1972. In 1972 the building, the waterwheel, and the pumping mechanism were restored using the original 18th century master craftsmen's drawing in the collection of the Moravian Archives. In 2004 the waterwheel sustained damage from Hurricane Ivan, and through a Save America's Treasures Grant was restored in 2009 using those same drawings. Sections of the original wooden pipes used by the Waterworks are on display at the Moravian Museum of Bethlehem.

The 1762 Waterworks is owned by the city of Bethlehem with a long-term lease to Historic Bethlehem Inc., a member institution of Historic Bethlehem Museums & Sites, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. The history of the 1762 Waterworks is interpreted today on guided tours. The building is presently closed to the public.

Home > Heritage > Hebrew Cemetery
Hebrew Cemetery, operated by the Hebrew Cemetery Company, has played an important role in the history of Beth Ahabah and its predecessor congregation, K.K. Beth Shalome. It is located on Shockoe Hill at Fourth and Hospital Streets, a site that was chosen in 1816 after the first cemetery of K. K. Beth Shalome, located on Franklin Street, was filled. The Franklin Street Burial Grounds, founded in 1791, was the first Jewish cemetery in Virginia and continues to be maintained by the Hebrew Cemetery Company. Hebrew Cemetery was listed on the National Register of Historic Places and the Virginia Landmarks Register in 2006.
The cemetery gates are open Sunday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and by arrangement with the Temple office. A security guard also is present on the first and third Sundays of each month from noon until 3:00 p.m.
Call the Beth Ahabah Museum & Archives at 804-353-2668 for information about historical tours.
Jewish Guide to Funeral and Mourning Customs
The first to be interred at Hebrew Cemetery was Benjamin Wolfe. Mr. Wolfe, a merchant and one of the founding fathers of K.K. Beth Shalome, was chairman of the committee formed in 1816 to acquire a new cemetery for the congregation. He also was a member of Richmond Common Hall (the town council), and this position allowed him to lobby for the cemetery. After arrangements for the cemetery were completed, it is told that Mr. Wolfe laughingly remarked that the Congregation's president should be the first person interred in the new grounds. The president responded with a biblical passage to the effect that he who dug a pit should be the first to fall into it.
Other persons whose gravesites may be found in the cemetery include the leaders of the congregations, rabbis and many of the leaders of the business and social communities of Richmond.During the first one hundred years of its history, Hebrew Cemetery was filled with a number of elaborate memorials to the deceased. Chest and table tombs, cradle graves and rustic tree monuments are found among the tall obelisks, broken columns and draped urns. Jewish symbols such as the Star of David and the hands positioned for the priestly blessing of the Kohanim are found on the gravestones, but there are also many symbols shared with the larger community, such as the weeping willow tree, lambs, doves and flowers.
Help us maintain our historic cemetery by making a contribution. It is greatly appreciated.
CONFEDERATE SECTION
The Soldiers' Section of Hebrew Cemetery is the only Jewish military cemetery in the United States, and one of the few outside of Israel. Thirty Jewish Confederate soldiers were buried in a self-contained section during the course of the Civil War. Shortly after the war, the Hebrew Ladies' Memorial Association took over care of the graves, erecting grave markers, holding memorial services and erecting an ornamental iron fence depicting muskets, crossed swords and sabers – with a flat Confederate soldier's cap adorning the top of the fence posts. In the 1950s, the decaying tombstones were removed and replaced with a bronze plaque listing the names of the soldiers affixed to a large granite stone.
HISTORY OF CONFEDERATE SECTION
This plot contains the graves of 30 Jewish Confederate soldiers who died in or near Richmond. In 1866, the Hebrew Ladies' Memorial Association was formed to care for this section. This organization paid for individual grave markers for the soldiers, commissioned an elaborate ornamental iron fence to surround the plot and sponsored commemorative services for the soldiers. The HLMA gave the care of the plot over to the Hebrew Cemetery Company in the 1930s.
The fence was designed by Richmond artist Major William Barksdale Myers prior to 1873. The individual grave markers were removed during the 1950s and a central granite marker was erected in their place. Today the section, like the rest of the cemetery, is maintained by the Hebrew Cemetery Company.
In 1963 a correction was made to the bronze plaque regarding the name of one of the soldiers. Henry Gintzberger, a German immigrant, enlisted in the Salem Flying Artillery at the beginning of the Civil War and was killed at Cold Harbor in 1864. His name was mistakenly reported to be Gersberg and he was buried in the Soldiers' Section under that name. Richmond historian J. Ambler Johnston, whose father served with Gintzberger, correctly identified this long-dead soldier after more than 20 years of research. In a ceremony during the Civil War Centennial, Gintzberger's name was added to the plaque. The soldier, who fought under Stonewall Jackson at Chancellorsville and was wounded at Gettysburg, now rests under his own name.

While most assumed that they would do it eventually, they probably weren't aware that in 2013 even as work began on the first movie of the 'final' trilogy, work also commenced on the early planning of Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge. That initial team fo a handful of people would eventually grow to over 4,000.
At risk of being too agreeable to marketing speak, I'd have to agree with this particular statement. What is being built here has little parallel in terms of immersion and ambition in an amusement park or out. And it's going to blow Star Wars fans, casual and involved, away.
Covering 14 acres individually at both Disneyland, Anaheim and Disney's Hollywood Studios in Florida, the lands are pieces of the planet Batuu, and they host Black Spire Outpost, a village with shops, eateries, villagers and a First Order advance post. Outside of the village, you can also find the Resistance encampment with its ad-hoc infrastructure, rag-tag starfighters and equipment. The lands house two major attractions — Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance and Millennium Falcon: Smuggler's Run.
Walking through one of the entrances to Batuu, guests should feel a bit of compression and then decompression, says Executive Creative Director, WDI Chris Beatty. Coming in from Frontierland, Critter Country or just outside Fantasyland, you're presented with 'laser cut' rock tunnel that creates a blank slate that then opens up into a cinematically framed vista that varies depending on your entrance. For the middle tunnel, you get a peek at some of the architecture, for instance and then boom, you're presented with ships in the foreground, buildings, tall ancient spires, ships perched atop the buildings, canopies sawing in the wind. Shot established, you're in Black Spire Outpost.
Dok-OndarÕs Den of Antiquities in Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge will feature rare items from across the galaxy for sale, all part of Dok-Ondar's collection.
Electric motors were pioneered in 2009 with the head of Mr. Lincoln. They've since been used in Enchanted Tales with Belle, Frozen Ever After and the Na've River Journey attractions. Rocket Raccoon in Guardians of the Galaxy Mission: Breakout is also an electric figure.
Dok-Ondar — An Ithorian trader, Don is renowned for his Jedi and Sith artifact collection. I was able to see Dok fully active in the Imagineering animation building and he looks incredible. The figure towers several feet above guests heads as he sits behind his counter and interacts with shop employees. The detail is lovely here, with a rich, smooth set of animations for hands and neck, his whole body rising up and down. The lips along his two mouths ripple as he speaks in a resonant stereophonic voice.
Nien Nunb — A Sullustun pilot famous for copiloting the Millennium Falcon on its mission to destroy the second Death Star in Return of the Jedi. On Batuu he will pilot the transport ship that you board during the Rise of the Resistance attraction.
One of the more minor but no less intriguing characters includes a Dianoga beast which will cameo inside of a water fountain, popping up out of the very murky looking (for show) water intermittently to surprise guests. You'll also see a ton of animated creatures inside the Creature Stall including fan favorites like the Loth-cat and a Worrt. The Droid Shop is also set to be full of animated droids of all kinds, and its exterior will have droids interacting with guests via the PLAY Disney app and getting a refreshing lubricant bath.
There are two attractions inside the land. Millennium Falcon: Smuggler's Run (Falcon from here on out) and Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance (Rise). The Falcon is a simulator type ride that reads like a very, very advanced version of Star Tours that you can actually control in real time with a crew of 6 people. Rise is much harder to explain, and consists of multiple stages of 'ride' that, taken together, are best described as an "experiential" attraction.
From there, you make your way across a landing pad as Poe's X-Wing warms up to your right. You walk towards and board a U-Wing transport ship with a group of fellow passengers. A simulated takeoff and flight, facilitated by your Nien Nunb and Poe, commence with everyone standing troop transport style. You are quickly captured and pulled aboard a Star Destroyer.
One big question mark that still remains undisclosed despite my inquiries, is how, exactly the proprietors or characters will remember this. They seemed to indicate that it was not the PLAY Disney app that would do this, so more yet to be revealed. Perhaps a system like the Magic Bands out in the Florida parks that has yet to be discussed.
The way that Imagineering thinks of Galaxy's Edge is that there are three main attractions. The 2 rides and the land itself. In addition to the 5 restaurants and 5 shops, there are two distinct biomes and the land is embedded with activities that are accessed through the PLAY Disney app. When you enter the land, it switches over to a Star Wars mode, allowing you access to several tools including Scan, Translate, Tune and Jobs. Through these, and dozens of bluetooth beacons located throughout Batuu, you can activate droids, download schematics from hacking ships, download secret messages from door panels and listen to transmissions from three factions inclined the First Order, the Resistance and the Smugglers. You can also translate some of the alien languages that are spoken or written throughout the land.
