Cask Profiles
About Courage & Conviction
In Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountains, where the winters are cool, and the summers are hot and humid, a native Irishman looked out at the blue-colored hills and saw the future.
Inspired by his love of single malt whisky and for the new land he called home, Dr. George G. Moore saw an opportunity to combine his two passions into a singular expression - a new world single malt to rival those of the old world. He founded Virginia Distillery Company with a dream to re-imagine American whisky and solidify Virginia's standing as a place of distinction for spirit craftsmanship.
Inspired by George's guiding principle, to "have the courage of your convictions", and driven by relentless passion, George's family followed in his footsteps and took the reins to bring his vision to life.
With the courage to create our own traditions, and the conviction to remain true to ourselves and our home, Courage & Conviction sets the new standard for American whisky, rivaling the finest in the world.
Flagship Release: Spring 2020
Aged a minimum of three years at the distillery in Virginia, this 100% malted barley whisky is matured in former Bourbon, Sherry and Cuvée wine casks. The target profile for this Flagship product is a blend of these aged whiskies.
With notes of caramel and butterscotch, our flagship American Single Malt evolves on the palate with hints of dark dried fruit, raspberry, cocoa, barrel spice and vanilla. The finish is creamy and exceptionally smooth.
Additional Releases: Fall 2020
This new series will include individual bottlings of each cask type from the Flagship bottling. These will include Bourbon Cask, Cuvée Wine Cask and Sherry Cask offerings.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass: The American Hockey League announced today that Tucson Roadrunners forward Dylan Strome has been selected as the CCM/AHL Player of the Week for the period ending Nov. 26, 2017.
Strome notched four goals and four assists for eight points in three games for Tucson last week, helping Tucson to the top of the Western Conference standings.
On Wednesday night, Strome scored twice and added two assists, tying a season high with four points and earning first-star honors in the Roadrunners' 5-0 win over San Diego. In the opener of a two-game set with Stockton on Friday, Strome scored a power-play goal in the second period before setting up the game-winning goal in the third as Tucson claimed a 3-2 victory. And on Saturday, Strome ran his scoring streak to seven games (7-9-16) with a goal and an assist in a 4-2 loss to the Heat. Strome's week ended with a recall by the parent Arizona Coyotes on Sunday.
The third overall pick in the 2015 NHL Draft, Strome is tied for the AHL lead with 18 assists, ranks second with 26 points and is tied for third with a plus-13 rating in just 15 games for Tucson. His 11 power-play assists and 14 power-play points are also both tied for the most in the league. A 20-year-old rookie from Mississauga, Ont., Strome has also appeared in two NHL games with the Coyotes this season, and is coming off a prolific junior career that saw him win an OHL scoring title in 2014-15 and earn MVP honors at the 2017 Memorial Cup tournament.

EUROPE – EXCLUSIVE Interview
Simon Rushworth 10th September 2009
Interviews0 Comments 0
Europe Week gathers pace ahead of Monday's release of Last Look At Eden as we talk to drummer cum rock DJ Ian Haugland. Now one of the coolest dads in Stockholm, he just wishes his old school mates had seen through that superstar perm and string of global hits back in the day…
rushonrock: Do you enjoy being a band member in Europe now more so than you did in the late 80s?
Ian Haugland: Absolutely. I think it's easier these days to appreciate the success. Back in the 80s everything happened so quickly that we didn't really know what was going on. When The Final Countdown took off it all happened within the space of two or three weeks. We went from being a regular rock and roll band to stars in a very short space of time. It was only after we stopped touring in the early 90s that I started to realise what we'd done and that we might never do it again. These days it's so much easier to enjoy the whole Europe experience because we have more time to plan things the way we want them done. And we take care of the business side of things too which makes everything tick.
rushonrock: Do all the members take care of business, so to speak?
IH: We're very much a democratic band when it comes to making the decisions which will affect our long and short-term future. We have meetings with management on a regular basis to ensure everything's going to plan,. Of course there are times when two of us want to go in one direction and the other three want to do it differently but we usually manage to work things out on our own way. I don't think we had any idea about the music business when the band made it big and we left all of our affairs in the hands of management and record labels. We just wanted to play music, party and experience everything that is part and parcel of being in a band. But you're allowed to do that when you're young.
rushonrock: What were the biggest pressures you faced back in the 80s?
IH: I don't think we felt any pressure at all when The Final Countdown took off. We released Rock The Night, Carrie and Cherokee off that album as singles and they were all huge hits all over the world. We felt as if it was easy to write hit songs and we just rode the crest of a wave without worrying about the future. It was only after Out Of The Wilderness had been and gone, and there hadn't been the same success in terms of hit singles, that we started to feel any pressure. With the next album, Prisoners In Paradise, there was real pressure to come up with another big hit single. I remember we demoed around 14 or 16 songs for that album but the record company people came down and said they didn't hear a single hit song. They told us to carry on writing and come up with something new. I suppose that's when I realised the music business wasn't so simple after all!
rushonrock: How exciting is the renewed interest in the band?
IH: It amazes me really. For me, being in the band for 25 years or so and being involved in the creative process writing so many records, I feel that every album is like a new born child that I've nurtured for some time. At that time you give that record all of your love and you feel very proud. Of course not everyone shares that view but suddenly people are talking about us again. I think the last two albums have been great records but when you reunite as a band people have a preconception that it's financially driven and that you'll maybe do one new album, tour the world, milk it for what it's worth and then disappear again. Many of these bands only have one or two original members and fans enjoy the moment without really taking it too seriously. It takes some time for the public to believe that the band is 'real' again but Europe has reached that point now where, three albums into our second coming, we're not going anywhere. We are the real deal again. And Last Look At Eden is a great record. We've written some astonishing songs.
rushonrock: Do you feel that LLAE has fused the classic Europe sound of the 80s with the modern rock sound of the noughties to create the perfect record?
IH: That's exactly what I feel, but then I'm biased. LLAE has that vintage, melodic side to Europe plus the modern sound we've developed during the past six years. When Joey wrote the songs for the new album he started the writing process out on the road and many of the best ideas came from impromptu jam sessions. If there was a good idea it was allowed to grow by itself. With Secret Society there wasn't the same flexibility. We had a plan with that record where we wanted it to sound modern and up to date, which it did. But my only problem with that album is that it lacks the melodic side of Europe.
rushonrock: Describe the Bloodstock experience this summer.
IH: I wouldn't say that we were worried going into that festival but we were wondering what was going to happen. Would people throw rotten eggs at the stage when they saw Europe or would we be given a chance? I was aware that there were certain threads on the Bloodstock message boards where fans weren't too happy that Europe was the headline act. But I knew we could only do what we always do and that's deliver a professional show to the paying public. We have to convince people that we're great at doing our own thing and that's what we did.
rushonrock: Weren't you the least bit intimidated as a hair metal band famous for its power ballads entering the lions' den that is Britain's best heavy metal festival?
IH: When we first arrived the first thing that struck me was that people were very much 'metal'. Out front, backstage, everywhere – there was a metal vibe and some serious metal fans. I just remember thinking to myself we'll see what happens here. But the reaction was great, the reviews have been awesome and ultimately I think that show will have given us a great deal of credibility. Even after all of these years we're still trying to convince people that Europe do rock. (Bloodstock photo copyright Christie Goodwin 2009)
rushonrock: What has being a member of Europe allowed you to achieve?
IH: Well first and foremost I'm working as a radio DJ is Stockholm playing classic rock and that would never have happened had it not been for Europe. I play Alice Cooper, AC/DC, Metallica and Deep Purple and it's a dream job. Anything that you can classify under 70s/80s/90s hard rock gets my vote and of course I play a lot of Europe stuff! But I wouldn't be doing the job without Europe. We were invited to do a Rock Classic Road Show when the Hard Rock Café on Stockholm celebrated its 15th anniversary – we were special guests because we'd filmed the Rock The Night video there many years ago. Afterwards we went to Rock Classic to do an interview and I liked what I saw. I said to the DJ that this looks like nice work – bullshitting and listening to rock music! I gave him my number and said that if anyone's ever off sick or on holiday and they need someone to fill in I'd be up for it. Anyway, six months later I got a call from the radio station boss and he asked me to do a show. That was 10 years ago and I'm still here now. All thanks to Europe.
rushonrock: Is there a downside to being in the band?
IH: Not really. At least not these days. In the early days I didn't like the fact that my old schoolfriends started to talk to me and treat me differently just because I was in a successful band. They couldn't see that I was the same person even though I'm convinced that I was. They thought I was some kind of megastar and couldn't behave naturally around me. That really bugged me at the time. You couldn't really trust people to be straight with you. These days there's none of that and I just go out to enjoy every minute. The great thing is that my kids' friends think I'm some kind of cool dad. They're in their late teens now and when I was their age I'd never have been able to describe my dad as cool. But my kids' friends actually listen to and like Europe!

REVIEW – MAJESTIC DOWNFALL


If you ask my kids what they're favorite dessert is they will tell you, hands down, it's dirt cake. I don't tell many people this fact because I get paid to bake yummy desserts with unique flavor profiles and, at the end of the day, my kids prefer boxed pudding and Oreos all crushed up together with some gummy worms slapped on top.
So that's a little embarrassing.
But, if you can't beat 'em… join 'em. For St. Paddy's day I thought I'd surprise them with a green version of their favorite snack. The "dirt" for this cake is Lucky Charms, and I used pistachio pudding mix for the green layer but, never fear, I doctored it up so the end result is anything but nutty.
You can make these a day or two ahead of time and they won't get mushy. Just cover and chill them and they'll be perfect for your lucky day!
In a stand mixer, beat together the yogurt, pudding mix, and milk on medium speed for two minutes. Add approximately 6 ounces of the whipped topping (you just need to save about 1 cup of the whipped topping to finish off the tops of your dirt cakes) and beat until the mixture is smooth.
In a small bowl, melt the white chocolate chips in the microwave in 30-second bursts, until melted. White chocolate can be a little finicky when melting, so go in small spurts. And don't worry if it's not liquid-y and pourable -- it will still work.
With your electric mixer turned on, slowly add the melted chocolate chips into your creamy mixture until well-beaten. Tint with green food coloring, if desired.
Spoon several tablespoons of the mixture into mini trifle cups, top with Lucky Charms, more of the pudding mixture, a thin layer of whipped topping, then sprinkle with Lucky Charms to finish it all off.
Serve immediately for or cover and chill!

David Griffin Explains Why The Pelicans Shut Down Zion Williamson
LAS VEGAS, NEVADA - JULY 05: Zion Williamson #1 of the New Orleans Pelicans walks on the court during a game against the New York Knicks during the 2019 NBA Summer League at the Thomas & Mack Center on July 5, 2019 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The hype surrounding Zion Williamson came to a quick halt due to a knee injury at NBA Summer League. However, the No. 1 overall pick's absence from the court sounds more precautionary than anything else.
Fans couldn't wait to see Williamson showcase his athleticism in Las Vegas. The Duke star has quickly become one of the most polarizing figures in sports.
New Orleans understands that Williamson could eventually be the face of the franchise, which is why shutting him down was necessary.
David Griffin, the executive vice president of basketball operations for the Pelicans, explained the reasoning behind the team's decision to shut down Williamson for the rest of the Summer League.
"He came to us — he wasn't in great condition," Griffin said. "From a cardio perspective, it wasn't a great situation to begin with. So when he took that shot, really it was just, from my standpoint, it was more caution than anything else to shut him down at that point, because there's really no reason to push him when he was in the situation he was in."
Rachel Nichols released the full segment from The Jump on Twitter.
Pelicans front office guru David Griffin joined #TheJump to talk about Zion's bruised knee, the conditioning/health plan for Zion going forward and the Pels' chances in the west, with @MrVinceCarter15 & @PaulPierce34 pic.twitter.com/ynOsv3QvnT
— Rachel Nichols (@Rachel__Nichols) July 9, 2019
Although Williamson is built well for a young athlete, Griffin believes that he isn't currently in the best shape possible.
With a professional training staff at his disposal, the hope is that Williamson will be durable in an 82-game season.

Find the answers to common questions below. If you don't see the answer you need, consult your CPNP-PC Recert Guide or CPNP-AC/PC Recert Guide or email recert@pncb.org for assistance.
Do I need to take a Pediatric Updates module this year?
The easiest way to keep track of what you've done in the past is to log in to Your Dashboard and review which Recert options you've already completed in your current 7-year cycle and see Pediatric Updates requirements, or review your recertification guide. Unless you've waited until the end of your 7-cycle to complete required Pediatric Updates, you have the flexibility to choose when to complete these activities.
What if I earn less than 70% on my PNCB Pediatric Updates?
Certificants who do not earn a 70% or greater on their Pediatric Updates will be given a free retest opportunity. Retest details will be emailed to those needing this information. You must successfully complete the Pediatric Updates prior to applying it to your Recert application. Once you successfully complete a module, your CE certificate will be processed within 24 hours and CE credit will be available to apply to your Recert application. Contact ce@pncb.org if you do not receive your CE certificate within 24 hours or have other continuing education questions.
How do I answer Pediatric Updates online?
View our Answering Your PNCB Module Online resource for more information. All answers must be submitted online.
I am a CPNP and want to use the Pediatric Updates/contact hour/PPL option. How many contact hours are required and how much PPL?
One CPNP Pediatric Updates module equals 7.5 contact hours, so you can combine a Pediatric Updates module with documentation of 2.5 earned contact hours plus 1 PPL option.
I am a CPNP who precepts RN-level students? Does this count as precepting?
Precepting must be level-appropriate for your certification type. CPNPs must precept graduate PNP (or FNP students focused on mastery of pediatric clinical content) to count for PPL.
I am a CPNP and serve on a pediatric nursing, not advanced nursing committee. Does this count for PPL?
Yes, advanced practice nurses can use committee membership on a pediatric nursing practice committee or task force as PPL. You must have served in the past 24 months, at a state or national level, as an officer or a task force member.
Can I request free verification for more than 1 state board of nursing?
Verification of certification is available 24x7 to all state boards of nursing. A Board can verify or re-verify information on-demand and as many times as needed.
My name on my advanced practice nursing license is different than on my PNCB account does this matter?
Yes. The State Board of Nursing receives verification of certification in your name as printed on your wallet ID card. If either your PNCB record or licensure is not listed as your legal name, please update this information with the appropriate party.
For PNCB, please log in to Applications/Forms to complete our Name Change Application and upload required supporting documents.
I have Dual Certification and need to recertify in both Primary Care and Acute Care. How many options do I need to fulfill per year to maintain both?
Only one per year. For details on maintaining both Primary Care and Acute Care certification, review your recertification guide. As an example, if you passed the Acute Care test in 2017, this year you will only need to Recert for Primary Care as a newly certified grace period applies in your case. Then next year, you'll begin the Dually-Certified AC/PC Recert Program.
I was previously certified as a Primary Care CPNP and am now also certified as an Acute Care CPNP. What happens to my Recertification Program?
Once you enter the Dually-certified AC/PC Recert Program, you begin a new 7-year cycle. This allows for tracking your new Dually-certified Recert requirements, which are different than what was required when you held only one CPNP certification. When do you enter this new cycle? Check your online wallet card for the expiration date of your newest certification. You will enter the Dually-certified Recert program between November 1 and January 31 prior to this expiration date.
I am dually certified as a CPN/CPNP and attended a conference that is relevant to both roles. Can I use this conference to maintain both certifications?
Some conferences, such as NAPNAP, offer content for both roles. You will need to identify which sessions you attended and which of the attended sessions you are using for each certification.
I am dually certified as a CPN/CPNP and working as a PNP. Can I use my clinical practice to maintain my CPN certification?
Clinical practice hours must be relevant to the type of certification. The CPN and CPNP roles are different and include different competencies. Recertifying your CPN certification requires you to document continuing education, Professional Practice learning, etc. you have completed to maintain your competency in the CPN role.
I completed a Pharmacology Pediatric Updates module for my CPNP recertification. Can I use this module to maintain my CPN certification?
Yes, enter the module as CE on your CPN recertification application. Some PNCB Pediatric Updates modules are relevant to both nursing roles and there will be a sentence in the product description that tells you which ones.
I completed CE specific to the PNP role. Can I use this to maintain my CPN certification?
No, the CE content must be relevant to the CPN role.
I completed Pediatrics in Review for my CPNP certification. Can I also use this CE for my CPN recertification?
You can use Pediatrics in Review for your CPN recertification if the review is of a disease from diagnosis to follow up. If the content is only relevant to advanced nursing practice you may not use this to maintain your CPN certification.

Microsoft Office 2003 & 2007: A Look Back
Paul Thurrott | Sep 11, 2011
Over the half-decade period spanning 2002 to 2007, Microsoft attempted to dramatically jumpstart its Windows efforts with the ill-fated Longhorn project, which resulted in the poorly-received Windows Vista. But Vista wasn't the only major product Microsoft plotted to overhaul during this time: After releasing yet another "lipstick on a pig" upgrade in Office 2003, the Office team got its collective act together and really went for it with Office 2007, a revolutionary Office upgrade that started the transition to a completely new UI.
(Office 2007 was so successful that the people responsible for it were brought over to the Windows team to fix that product line, a move that resulted in the blockbuster Window 7 release.)
Of course, the world was slowly moving to an online computing model during this time frame as well, so there are just a couple of articles here representing the Office team's first, tentative forays into online services, with a short-lived subscription service called Office Outlook Live and, of course, Office Live, which went through a few renditions before being pushed aside very recently.
As with previous entries in this series, the most recent articles are at the top.
Microsoft Office 2007 Review, Part 3: Office 2007 Applications - February 11, 2007
With Office, of course, it all comes down to the applications. Different people use different Office applications, while almost completely ignoring others. So I'll try to provide a decent roundup of the most-often used Office applications and note how they've changed--for better or worse--in Office 2007.
Microsoft Office 2007 Review, Part 2: What's New? - January 28, 2007
In this part of the review, I'd like to discuss two major changes to Office 2007 that affect the most commonly-used applications in the suite: the new Ribbon user interface and the new XML-based document formats. Both of these changes are major and revolutionary, and set Office 2007 apart, mostly in very good ways, from its predecessors.
Microsoft Office 2007 Review, Part 1: Introduction - January 2, 2007
Office 2007 is a home run, an absolutely stellar suite of tools that will benefit users of all types. Trust me on this one: Unless you have absolutely no need to be more productive, you want Office 2007.
Microsoft Office 2007 RTM Screenshot Gallery - November 6, 2006
Monday morning at 9:00 EST, Microsoft announced that its long-awaited Office 2007 System was complete, setting the stage for a late November 2006 business rollout of the products and a wider consumer launch in January.
Windows Vista and Office 2007 Packaging Revealed - October 31, 2006
With the upcoming release of Windows Vista and Office 2007, Microsoft is launching a new type of packaging for the retail versions of these products and, going forward, its other software releases. The new packaging is similar to that used by Microsoft's Mac Office line, and features a hard, clamshell plastic container with simple graphics and design.
Microsoft Office 2007 Beta 2 Technical Refresh Review - September 14, 2006
What a difference a few months makes. Back in May, Microsoft shipped the Beta 2 version of Office 2007 and made it available to the public. Since then, over three and a half million people downloaded and installed the beta. This proves a few things, primarily that there is a lot of interest in Microsoft's next office productivity suite.
Office 2007 Beta 2 Review, Part 4: OneNote 2007 - May 23, 2006
In this part of my Office 2007 Beta 2 review, I'd like to highlight another Office application in which I spend a lot of time, OneNote. With OneNote 2007, Microsoft has improved OneNote in several important ways.
Office 2007 Beta 2 Review, Part 3: Outlook 2007 - May 23, 2006
In addition to being my email interface, Outlook plots my schedule, keeps track of my contacts, and manages my tasks. That's a serious multitasker right there, folks, and though Outlook has been unmercifully copied by competitors, it's never been duplicated. One might wonder why anyone even bothers any more.
Office 2007 Beta 2 Review, Part 2: Word 2007 - May 4, 2006
As a writer, I live in Microsoft Word, and I've been putting this one through its paces like no other Office 2007 applications. And Word is the poster child for the new Office 2007 results-oriented user interface. It's the one that gets all the demo face-time. Let's jump in.
Office 2007 Beta 2 Review, Part 1: A New User Interface - May 4, 2006
Microsoft has come up with an excellent answer to the critics. It is simply changing the rules to the game. Instead of creating yet another Office version with a slightly modified user interface and slightly improved features, Microsoft has gone back to the drawing boards. And say what you will about the software giant's ability to innovate, because Office 2007--the next version of Microsoft Office that is expected to ship to customers in January 2007--is nothing but innovative. It's a breath of fresh air in a market that, frankly, hasn't ever seen changes this exciting or disruptive.
Office 2007 ("12") Beta 1 Tech Refresh Screenshot Gallery - March 29, 2006
With the March 2006 release of the Microsoft Office 2007 Beta 1 Tech Refresh (TR), we're finally getting a hands-on look at the final user interface for this version of Office. Microsoft says the new UI is designed to make the overall software experience easier, reduce design clutter, increase feature and capability discovery, and support the creation of great-looking documents.
Microsoft SKUs Customers with Windows Vista, Office 2007 - February 21, 2006
I like to think of it as feature-itis, but in Microsoft's understanding of the world, multiple product editions, or what it calls SKUs (for stock keeping unit, a retail term) equate to more revenues. That's why the company's upcoming Windows client and Microsoft Office revisions will feature more product editions than ever before, all aimed at specific markets. It sounds like a support nightmare to me. Let's take a look.
Inside Office 12, Part 2 - January 26, 2006
Here in Part 2, I'll continue this discussion with Jensen Harris, a lead program manager for Microsoft Office, and Jacob Jaffe, a Group Product Manager on the Office team. When we left last time, we were finishing up a discussion about Microsoft Outlook.
Inside Office 12, Part 1 - January 1, 2006
Jensen Harris is a lead program manager for Microsoft Office and the person most directly responsible for the new results-oriented interface found in Office 12. Harris recently took me on a lengthy tour of the Office 12 UI, showing off the new tab-based paradigm, which presents ribbons of functions in place of the more typical menu and toolbars.
Outlook 12 Pushes Productivity - January 3, 2006
Now that I've had the chance to play with Office 12 Beta 1 for a few weeks, I'm even more sold on the changes, which present the most commonly-needed commands up front and center in each Office 12 application. Internally, Microsoft refers to this UI as a "results-oriented" UI, one that dispenses with the traditional menus and toolbars that dominated previous Office versions.

Office Live Preview - December 12, 2005
Unlike Windows Live, which is aimed squarely at consumers, Office Live is aimed at the business customers Microsoft targets with its Office productivity suite and related Office System products. In this preview, I'll examine what we know about Office Live, which is, at this time, still some weeks away from a private beta. In future articles, I'll describe my hands-on experiences with Office Live.
Office 12 Pre-Beta Screenshot Galleries - November 3-6, 2005

Microsoft Office 12 Preview 1 - March 8, 2005
Microsoft is plotting the path to Office 12, its next major Office version. Office 12 will once again push collaboration features for businesses. It will arrive with a new range of Office-based servers. It will push the XML envelope even harder. But for Microsoft, the goal with Office 12 is more basic and more pressing than ever before. After years of lackluster upgrades and increased competition, Microsoft will seek to finally push its legacy users off of Office 97, fight the "good enough" arguments, and try to deliver a suite that meets the needs of many, many market segments. In this showcase, I'll detail the Office 12 delivery schedule and examine early Office 12 prototypes and plans.
Microsoft Office Outlook Live Review - January 20, 2005
A subscription offering that combines Microsoft's popular Outlook 2003 application with MSN's Hotmail Plus service and Microsoft Office Outlook Connector software, Microsoft Office Outlook Live (MOOL) provides an interesting solution for power users who are accustomed to Outlook.
Microsoft Office System 2003 Editions Review - October 21, 2003
Microsoft Office is so mature that most users don't upgrade on an every-other-version schedule, which is the norm with Windows, but on an every-third-release schedule. That means there are a lot of Office 97 users out there kicking the virtual tires on Office 2003, wondering if this release is worth the price. Allow me to spare you some suspense: If you're still using Office 97, yes, you need Office 2003, assuming you're running a supported Windows version. For Office 2000 and Office XP, users, however, the choice is a bit more complicated.
Microsoft Office OneNote 2003 Preview - October 19, 2003
Once I started using OneNote regularly around August 2003, there was no turning back, and I'm now a fan and regular user of OneNote. So here are the features of OneNote that make this application indispensable to me, along with a few 1.0 quibbles that I'd like to see fixed in the next version.
Microsoft Office 2003 Editions Compared - August 12, 2003
Microsoft has its own table comparing the various Office 2003 editions, but that version is incomplete, hard to read, and poorly organized. So here is my own comparative set of tables, which I think you'll find to be much more readable and useful.
Microsoft Office FrontPage 2003 Preview - August 1, 2003
Like many of the Office 2003 products, FrontPage 2003 is largely an evolution, rather than a new, written-from-scratch product. But if you use FrontPage, or are comfortable with Microsoft Office and would like to learn more about Web publishing, FrontPage 2003 is an excellent upgrade. Here are the features in Microsoft FrontPage 2003 that really make this version worthwhile to me.
Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 Preview - July 8, 2003
This Outlook version isn't just the most radically changed application in Office 2003, it's also the best all-around email and PIM client I've seen. Here are the features in Outlook 2003 that made me forget all about the competition.
Microsoft Office Word 2003 Preview - June 30, 2003
As the oldest Office application, Word can safely be called a mature product, and predictably it hasn't changed dramatically in years. The version of Word that ships as part of Office 2003 is no different: Aside from adopting the new Office 2003-style user interface and task pane, Word doesn't visually differ from previous versions, and in day-to-day use, it's almost identical to Word 2002 (XP), which added the Smart Tags feature on which I now rely.
Microsoft Office 2003 Beta 2 Review - March 21, 2003
Office 2003 Beta 2 adds a host of new functionality as well as fully-working versions of its two new applications, InfoPath (formerly "XDocs") and OneNote, both of which were missing in action in the Beta 1 release. So let's take a look at Office 2003 Beta 2. There's a lot to take in.
Microsoft Office 11 Preview - December 6, 2002
The new Office, currently known only as Office 11, adds a new user interface scheme based on the visual styles in Windows XP and a host of new features, while dropping the subscription software scheme that Microsoft tested in the previous version. Office 11 will also include new applications, such as XDocs and OneNote, though some of these new features aren't present in the first beta.

The asymmetric effect of review valence on numerical rating: A viewpoint from a sentiment analysis of users of TripAdvisor

The basic assumption is that there is a symmetric relationship between review valence and rating, but what if review valence and rating were linked asymmetrically? There are few studies which have investigated the situations in which positive and negative online reviews exert different influences on ratings. This study considers brand strength as having an important moderating role because the average rating of existing reviews for a particular product is a heuristic cue for decision makers. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to argue that an asymmetric relationship between review content valence and numerical rating will depend on brand strength.
The authors have conducted a sentiment analysis via text mining, using self-developed computer programs to retrieve a data set from the TripAdvisor website.
This study finds there is an asymmetric relationship between review valence (verbal) and numerical rating. The authors further find brand strength to have an important moderating role. For a stronger brand, negative review content will have a greater impact on numerical ratings than positive review content, while for a weaker brand, positive review content will have a greater impact on numerical ratings than negative review content.
Marketers could adopt sentiment analysis via text mining of online reviews as a valid measure or predictor of consumer satisfaction or numerical ratings. Strong brands should direct more attention to negative reviews, because in such reviews the negative impact transcends the positive. In contrast, weak brands should aim to exploit as many positive reviews as possible to minimize the impact of any negative reviews.
This study finds there is an asymmetric relationship between review valence (verbal) and numerical rating and considers brand strength to play an important moderating role. The authors have used real data from the TripAdvisor website, which allow people to express themselves in an unsolicited manner, and linked these with the results from the sentiment analysis.

The helpfulness of online reviews: Images in review content and the facial expressions of reviewers' avatars

Online reviews are increasingly available for a wide range of products and services in e-commerce. Most consumers rely heavily on online reviews when making purchase decisions, so an important topic is that of understanding what makes some online reviews helpful in the eyes of consumers. Researchers have demonstrated the benefits of the presence of customer reviews to an online retailer, however, few studies have investigated how images in review content and the facial expressions of reviewers' avatars influence the judgment of online review helpfulness. This study draws on self-construal theory, attribution theory and affect-as-information theory to empirically test a model of the interaction effects of images in review content and the facial expressions of reviewers' avatars on online review helpfulness. Furthermore, the purpose of this paper is to identify an underlying mechanism of causal attribution toward store performance on the above effects.
This study conducted two online experiments. Study 1 is a 2 (images in review content: one person with a product vs a group of people with a product) ×2 (facial expression of the reviewer's avatar: happy vs angry) between-subjects design. Study 2 is a 3 (image: product alone vs one person with a product vs a group of people with a product) ×2 (facial expression of the reviewer's avatar: happy vs angry) ×3 (valence of the review: positive vs negative vs neutral) between-subjects design.
The results indicate that when consumers were exposed to a happy-looking avatar, they were likely to express higher perceptions of online review helpfulness in response to an image showing a group of people in a restaurant than they would for an image of one person in the same situation. In contrast, when consumers were exposed to an angry-looking avatar, their perceptions of online review helpfulness did not differ in response to images of either a group of people or of one person. Furthermore, cause attribution toward store performance mediated the interaction between images in content of reviews and the facial expression of a reviewer's avatar on the perceptions of online review helpfulness.
The authors provide insights into how to develop guidelines on how online reviews should be written so that readers perceive them to be helpful, and how to design effective reward mechanisms for customer feedback.
Compared with previous studies, this study provides further contributions in three ways. First, it contributes to the literature on review content by showing which images in reviews are deemed to be helpful. Second, it extends previous findings from the literature relating to online peer reviews by demonstrating the importance of facial expressions in reviewers' avatars (i.e. happy vs angry) when explaining helpfulness, rather than the strength of purchase intent. Third, this study contributes by further highlighting a novel mechanism which shows that a causal attribution toward store performance motivates the perceptions of online review helpfulness.

Estimating numerical scale ratings from text-based service reviews

This paper develops a generalizable, machine-learning-based method for measuring established marketing constructs using passive analysis of consumer-generated textual data from service reviews. The method is demonstrated using topic and sentiment analysis along dimensions of an existing scale: lodging quality index (LQI).
The method induces numerical scale ratings from text-based data such as consumer reviews. This is accomplished by automatically developing a dictionary from words within a set of existing scale items, rather a more manual process. This dictionary is used to analyze textual consumer review data, inducing topic and sentiment along various dimensions. Data produced is equivalent with Likert scores.
Paired t-tests reveal that the text analysis technique the authors develop produces data that is equivalent to Likert data from the same individual. Results from the authors' second study apply the method to real-world consumer hotel reviews.
Results demonstrate a novel means of using natural language processing in a way to complement or replace traditional survey methods. The approach the authors outline unlocks the ability to rapidly and efficiently analyze text in terms of any existing scale without the need to first manually develop a dictionary.
The technique makes a methodological contribution by outlining a new means of generating scale-equivalent data from text alone. The method has the potential to both unlock entirely new sources of data and potentially change how service satisfaction is assessed and opens the door for analysis of text in terms of a wider range of constructs.

Thermal and mechanical properties of copper/photopolymer composite
Shih-Hsuan Chiu, Cheng-Lung Wu, Shun-Ying Gan, Kun-Ting Chen, Yi-Ming Wang, Sheng-Hong Pong and Hitoshi Takagi
The purpose of this study is to increase the thermal and mechanical properties of the photopolymer by filling with the copper powder for the application of rapid tooling.
In this study, the photopolymer is filled with the different loading of copper powder for investigating the thermal and mechanical properties of the copper/photopolymer composite. The thermal properties of the copper/photopolymer composite are characterized with the degradation temperature and with the thermal conductivity. The mechanical properties of copper/photopolymer composite are performed with the tensile strength and hardness testing. Moreover, the copper/photopolymer composite is imaged by using a scanning electron microscopic with energy dispersive spectroscopy.
The tensile strength of the copper/photopolymer composite is increased over 45 per cent at 20 phr copper loading. The hardness of the photopolymer has a negative correlation with the increasing copper loading and is decreased about 28.5 per cent at 100 phr copper loading. The degradation temperature of the copper/photopolymer composite is increased about 7.2 per cent at 70 phr copper loading. The thermal conductivity of the copper/photopolymer composite is increased over 65 per cent at 100 phr copper loading.
The photopolymer used in rapid prototyping system is generally fragile and has poor thermal properties. This study improves the thermal and mechanical properties of the photopolymer with the copper filling which has been never investigated in the field of rapid prototyping applications.

Online reviews are increasingly available for a wide range of products and services. Several studies have demonstrated the benefits of the presence of customer reviews to an online retailer, but the issue of what makes online reviews helpful to a consumer in the process of making a purchase decision remains uninvestigated. The paper aims to discuss this issue.
Given the strategic potential of online reviews, this study drew on past research to develop a conceptual understanding of the components of helpfulness and to further empirically test the model using actual online review data from iPeen.com in Taiwan. A content analysis of 989 reviews across four products identified the interplay effects of review sidedness, reviewer's expertise, and product type on the helpfulness of an online review.
For search goods, consumers consider two-sided reviews to be more helpful than one-sided reviews when the reviewers are experts in writing such articles, whereas they consider two-sided reviews to be equally helpful as one-sided reviews when the reviewers are novices. Conversely, for experience goods, consumers consider one-sided reviews to be more helpful than two-sided reviews when the reviewers are experts in writing review articles, but they consider one-sided reviews to be equally helpful as two-sided reviews when the reviewers are novices.
With an understanding of how review sidedness affects online review helpfulness, online retailers could establish the policy for promoting the helpfulness of reviews more effectively.
This research yields at least three important contributions: first, it contributes to the message sidedness literature by showing which arguments (one- or two-sided) are deemed to be helpful; second, it contributes to the online peer review literature by demonstrating the importance of considering product type and heuristic cues (i.e. the reviewer's expertise) when explaining helpfulness; and third, the results in this research demonstrate that people are drawn to dual-processing; that is, the judgment of online review helpfulness is determined by heuristic cues (e.g. the status of the reviewer) and systematic processing (e.g. review content).

The aims of this study are twofold: to explore the influence of the typicality of brand story and regulatory focus on the effectiveness of argument strength and product evaluations and to examine the mediating role of being hooked.
The study performed two experiments which showed how the measured or induced regulatory focus of a consumer in a given situation moderates the relationship between typicality of the brand story and product evaluations.
The results show that prevention-focused individuals rely on the substance of the message after reading an atypical brand story, whereas promotion-focused individuals are more likely to be hooked by an atypical brand story. Moreover, the findings have also revealed that being hooked mediated the results of the interaction effects of the typicality of brand story and regulatory focus on product evaluation.
A better understanding of the interplay effects between the perceived typicality of brand story and the regulatory focus of target audiences has the potential to help marketers increase the persuasiveness of their communication messages.
To the authors' knowledge, this is the first piece of research to examine how the typicality of brand story and regulatory focus can influence the likelihood of a consumer being hooked. Moreover, the present study is among the first to show that regulatory focus is an important moderator of the effects of typicality, and this contributes to the literature of categorization theory.

Does matching pay policy with innovation strategy really improve firm performance?: An examination of technology‐based service firms
Kuen‐Hung Tsai, Christine Chou and Ming‐Yi Chen
The purpose of this paper is to examine whether matching pay policy with innovation strategy really improves firm performance.
Three technology‐based service sectors (software, information system integration, and IC design) comprise the analytical samples. A hierarchical multiple regression method is adopted to examine the research hypotheses.
Examinations reveal that the positive effect which pay policy combined with innovation strategy has on firm performance is only found in IC design service firms.
Industry serves as a moderator in the relationship between the match and firm performance. However, this examination concentrates on the technology‐based service sectors only.
Matching pay policy and innovation strategy cannot be regarded as a panacea for improving firm performance.
This study makes an interesting contribution to understanding the strategic perspective of compensation.

Climate engineering management (CEM) as an emerging and cross-disciplinary subject gradually draws the attention to researchers. This paper aims to focus on economic and social impacts on the technologies of climate engineering themselves. However, very few research concentrates on the management of climate engineering. Furthermore, scientific knowledge and a unified system of CEM are limited.
In this paper, the concept of CEM and its characteristics are proposed and elaborated. In addition, the framework of CEM is established based on management objectives, management processes and supporting theory and technology of management. Moreover, a multi-agent synergistic theory of CEM is put forward to guide efficient management of climate engineering, which is composed of time synergy, space synergy, and factor synergy. This theory is suitable for solving all problems encountered in the management of various climate engineering rather than a specific climate engineering. Specifically, the proposed CEM system aims to mitigate the impact of climate change via refining and summarizing the interrelationship of each component.
Overall, the six research frontiers and hotspots in the field of CEM are explored based on the current status of research.
In terms of the objectives listed above, this paper seeks to provide a reference for formulating the standards and norms in the management of various climate engineering, as well as contribute to policy implementation and efficient management.

Aiming to find out how to incorporate green building into the architectural curriculum, this study aims to explore the psychological path for cultivating architectural students' awareness and motivation to learn the green design concepts and related technologies.
Based on a global review of relevant architectural courses in universities, a set of green building learning behaviors was proposed and a survey was conducted in architectural schools in South China to verify the "value-belief-norm" theory through the lens of green building learning behaviors. The psychological path that affects students' green building learning behaviors was analyzed using structural equation modeling.
The results showed that biospheric and altruistic values could directly affect students' motivation to learn green building, while personal norms served as the mediating condition for personal values and beliefs, and ultimately improved motivation.
The study suggests that the cultivation of environmental awareness and a sense of the ecological crisis should be developed through foundation courses, by establishing an ecological architecture curriculum, to more effectively guide students to learn and practice green building.
This study, for the first time, applied the "value-belief-norm" theory, which was developed to explain the psychological path for pro-environmental behaviors, to green building learning behaviors of architectural students.

The helpfulness vote is a type of aggregate user representation that, by measuring the quality of an online review based on certain criteria, can allow readers to find helpful reviews more quickly. Although widely applied in practice, the effectiveness of the voting mechanism is unsatisfactory. This paper uses the heuristic–systematic model and the theory of dynamics of reviews to shed light on the effect of various information cues (product ratings, word count and product attributes in the textual content of reviews) on online reviews' aggregative voting process. It proposes a conceptual model of seven empirically tested hypotheses.
A dataset of user-generated online hotel reviews (n = 6,099) was automatically extracted from Ctrip.com. In order to measure the variable of product attributes as a systematic cue, the paper uses Chinese word segmentation, a part-of-speech tag and word frequency statistics to analyze online textual content. To verify the seven hypotheses, SPSS 17.0 was used to perform multiple linear regression.
The results show that the aggregative process of helpfulness voting can be divided into two stages, initial and cumulative voting, depending on whether voting is affected by the previous votes. Heuristic (product ratings, word count) and systematic cues (product attributes in the textual content) respectively exert a greater impact on the two stages. Furthermore, the interaction of heuristic and systematic cues plays an important role in both stages, with a stronger impact on the cumulative voting stage and a weaker one on the initial stage.
This paper's findings can be used to explore improvements to helpfulness voting by aligning it with an individual's information process strategy, such as by providing more explicating heuristic cues, developing different methods of presenting relevant cues to promote the voting decision at different stages, and specifying the cognitive mechanisms when designing the functions and features of helpfulness voting.
This study explores the aggregative process of helpfulness votes, drawing on the study of the dynamics of online reviews for the first time. It also contributes to the understanding of the influence of various information cues on the process from an information process perspective.

My weight-loss story began the way so many do: I wanted to lose weight and get healthy. Diabetes and heart disease run in my family, and I have been borderline diabetic for several years, so I joined Curves. I quickly learned that it is not a fad – it is a lifestyle.
I have tried several fad diets and weight-loss programs, and not one of them worked. Curves teaches you that you can eat the foods you like and lose weight – the key is moderation. Before Curves, I worked out on a treadmill and tried a DVD exercise program, but they were so boring. I had to force myself to do them. Curves is anything but boring. The coaches and members are so encouraging. Simply put, Curves has become a regular part of my day.
I have experienced plateaus along the way, but my coach helped me break through every one of them successfully. Since I joined in July of 2013, I have lost 80 lbs.*** and I look better and feel better about myself. My health, energy, and lifestyle have all improved. My blood sugar levels are good, and I have more stamina. I can walk long distances without panting and puffing. I can do anything I want to do without worrying about running out of steam. I am now within three pounds to my goal weight, and I know I will achieve my goal.
Going to Curves is the smartest thing I have ever done for myself. Staying with Curves is the right answer for me.
My health, energy, and lifestyle have all improved.


Showing results for tags 'w2s'.
I-864 Are 3 year's of W2's REQUIRED?
I know that we must submit at least a copy of last years tax returns but the 2 previous years are optional. I understand that we need to input our income from the last 3 years in 24.a, b., and c. even if we are not submitting all three years of tax returns. What I do not understand though is if it is REQUIRED to submit the W2's from all three years that we have reported in 24.a, b, and c.? I am submitting the W2's from the most previous year but do I have to submit W2's for all three years? If yes, can some one show me the proof in the I-864 instructions as to where it says all three are required?

The Real Madrid superstar has a contract with Nike that is worth a reported £1 billion, but that is just the tip of the iceberg. Not only does Cristiano Ronaldo promote sportswear, he has sponsorship deals with a raft of companies across a number of different industries. And some of them can be very surprising indeed. Ronaldo raised eyebrows around the world just a couple of months ago when he announced a partnership with the Egyptian steel production industry.
"Have you ever related steel to eco-friendly? I did.. that's why I've partnered with the most safety-oriented steel brand #Egyptian_Steel", Ronaldo wrote in a post to his 63.9 million Twitter followers.
That gigantic following makes Ronaldo a very attractive proposition for a lot of companies, especially when coupled with the 115 million followers he can boast on Instagram. He has in the region of 300 million followers across his Facebook, Twitter and Instagram accounts.
It has been reported that Cristiano Ronaldo is paid in the region of $400,000 for each sponsored post on Instagram, ranking him in the same bracket as celebrities such as Selena Gomez and Kim Kardashian, as well as Kylie Jenner and Kendall Jenner.
How much does Cristiano Ronaldo earn?
According to a list produced by Forbes in June, Ronaldo banked $93 million over the previous 12 months to be named the richest athlete in the world in 2017, beating out Lionel Messi.
Some $58 million is that total came from Ronaldo's work on the pitch, his salary paid by Real Madrid in salary and bonuses, with the remaining $35 million coming from sponsors.
While Ronaldo's lifetime deal with Nike is by far his biggest sponsor - they pay him a reported £14.1million each year - a range of companies including Tag Heuer, Herbalife and Abbott Labs pay him to endorse their products.
And Ronaldo, evidently smart enough to be planning ahead for his retirement, has a variety of his own wares to sell as well, including shoes, underwear, jeans and fragrance. Ronaldo is also developing a line of hotels - there are two open so far, with more on the way - while he even has his own photo app - CR7 Selfie app by Cristiano Ronaldo.
Although other stars have also endorsed online gambling sites, Ronaldo is by far the biggest name in the world of sport to have done so.
PokerStars is one of the companies Ronaldo has joined forces with, having paired up with the firm in May 2015. CR7 has featured in adverts for PokerStars with NBA star Dwyane Wade.
The terms of the deal between Ronaldo and PokerStars have not been released but it is likely to be one of the biggest partnerships between a sportsman and a gambling firm. Ronaldo acts as a brand ambassador, which means that his role is to help promote PokerStars - as well as the game of poker itself - to a huge new audience.
"I started playing poker a few years ago, and I love the competition, strategy and fun. I'm looking forward to taking my game to the online and live poker tables and meeting my fans head to head," Ronaldo says of his association with PokerStars. "Although football is my world, poker has always been my game. I'm very excited to join the team." Ronaldo supposedly plays on PokerStars under the User ID C.Ronaldo, so look out for him on the tables.
Fairly recently, Ronaldo also announced a deal with an online brokerage based in Cyprus, Exness Group, which handles contracts for difference, or CFDs.
While these CFDs can be controversial due to the risks they pose, Ronaldo praised the way Exness "gives back to the world", as well as how the firm offers the "highest quality of services" and also works hard to foster a "socially conscious culture".
Football clubs including Ronaldo's La Liga rivals Atletico Madrid and Premier League sides Manchester City and Liverpool have associations with firms involved in CFDs as well.
What other sponsors does Cristiano Ronaldo have?
The list of sponsors to have signed up with Ronaldo over the last few years is almost endless.
Tag Heuer watches provide Ronaldo with one of his most lucrative deals and the Portugal star is often seen showing off his timepieces in posts on his various social media accounts.
Ronaldo's favourite watch seems to be the Tag Heuer CALIBRE HEUER 02T, which retails for just over £20,000 on the company's official website.
Of all the things he is most famous for, Ronaldo is known for his incredible body, so it is no wonder some of his sponsorships play on his high level of fitness. The 32-year-old teamed up with electronic muscle manipulator SixPad for a series of Japanese adverts.
Mobile games have exploded in popularity over the course of the last few years, so of course Ronaldo has one that bears his name.
Cristiano Ronaldo: Kick'n'Run was launched at the start of the year and the app has been downloaded more than five million times on Android devices alone.
The CR7 Selfie app by Cristiano Ronaldo is being promoted on the star's own website too. Users are encouraged to share their snaps on social media in the hope of becoming the "fan" photo of the month.
What do sponsors get out of linking up with Cristiano Ronaldo?
As sponsors pay a small fortune to have Ronaldo promote their products, what are the companies themselves getting out of the association?
Well, according to a 2017 report by Hookit - a firm that - tracks sponsorship value in social and digital media - Ronaldo produced close to $1 billion in value for his sponsors via social media.
This is partly as he is a relatively active member of social networks such as Instagram and Twitter, while he is usually free of the scandals that have hit sports stars like Tiger Woods.
Teaming up with Ronaldo is therefore extremely lucrative. The Real Madrid star makes cash out of the sponsorships and so do the businesses. Everyone's a winner!
Cristiano Ronaldo next game for Real Madrid is on November 25 of 2017 against Malaga. You can watch Juventus live stream, Real Madrid vs Malaga, Tottenham vs WBA, Manchester United vs Brighton, Liverpool vs Chelsea, and Borussia Dortmund vs Schalke 04, all matches provided from our live football game pages.

To be a mother, I talk about it so often, and sometimes, the words escape me. Motherhood is full of lessons, big and small. As I type this, Oak has yogurt smothered on his face and is about to climb up a chair. River is at school, and Peter is typing up today's to-do list which is far too long and too detailed. Motherhood and parenthood is filled with chaos 90% of the time for us. And yet, there is no other way I see myself juggling the role.
To celebrate the day, which I think we can all agree should be celebrated everyday, I've teamed up with Bryr Clogs and Mason Dixon Made….
Even in chaos, or as I like to say, "organized chaos" it is full of magic. My attempts at keeping it together are a combination of affirmations, style, some sense of mental peace, lists, and a whole village of other mothers and parents. Readers too. You guys are amazing.
To celebrate, we are giving away a custom pair of clogs and debrys to one lucky instagram follower! Follow along and enter right over here. Good luck!

Winery, wine trail and wine festival events west of the metroplex from the Red River to Waco.
There are over 50 wineries and vineyards in the Cross Timbers Ecoregion of Texas that spans from the Red River down to Lampasas, and from I-35 west to Abilene.
Come and explore what our Texas country has to offer in fine wines.
The Cross Timbers Region of Texas encompasses approximately 26,000 square miles in North and Central Texas. Early travelers through North Texas coined the name "Cross Timbers" by their repeated crossings of this timbered area, which besides being heavily grown with old oak trees, was thick with an almost impenetrable undergrowth of briars and other thorny bushes. Creek beds were lined with native Mustang grapes, many of which survive today. Made up of a mix of prairie, savanna, and woodland, it forms part of the boundary between the more heavily forested eastern part of the country and the almost treeless Great Plains, and also marks the western habitat limit of many mammals and insects.

Alkenstar
Firearms are among the most technologically advanced, and thus rarest, weapons in modern Golarion. Most of these gunpowder projectile weapons are manufactured in the magic-bereft city-state of Alkenstar, where advanced engineering, access to raw materials and necessity have perfected the art over thousands of years. Over ninety percent of all firearms in the world are owned and maintained within Alkenstar itself, but mercenaries, emigrants and highly profitable trade have spread these weapons out throughout throughout the world if one knows where to look for them. In general, guns manufactured in the massive Gunworks are of basic quality, but more artistic gunsmiths and craftsmen populate Alkenstar City and are more than willing to make custom weapons of higher quality or upgrade existing, production-line units.[1]
Types of firearms[]
Examples include the Musket and the Revolver.
This section is a stub. You can help us by expanding it.
Specific firearms[]
Most firearms are made from the same molds on the production line of the Gunworks, but other weapons are unique and notable in their own right, whether for their sheer size or a specific quality or function.
Built for Taldor's Fifth Army of Exploration in 2009 AR, this massive bombard is the world's largest weapon.[2]
Great Maw of Rovagug
Built for the nation's own defense in 4450 AR, this bombard stands guard over Alkenstar, built into the side of the Hellfallen Cliffs.[3][4]

Q: HPC usage statistics In HPC, we can get the real time usage statistics using qstat, pbsnodes, showq. But is there a way to get the usage history or is the usage history saved in some log files? I am interested in getting the usage history of particular user.

A: Torque keeps logs in the server_priv/accounting directory of the Torque install. Maui keeps logs in the stats directory of the Maui install. You should be able to grep the files corresponding to the dates you are interested in. In the past, I've opened up Maui stats in a spreadsheet as a space delimited file with some success.

Q: libgl.so not found on Buildroot system with OpenGL I have trouble with adding OpenGL to my Buildroot system. When I add mesa3d with OpenGL GLX or OpenGL ES and some drivers (Gallium KMSRO, v3d and vc4) and try to run my app on builded system, I get error about missing libGL.so. So I thought, that I must add something else and added libglu.
I can't build my project with libglu because of following error:
checking dynamic linker characteristics... (cached) GNU/Linux ld.so
checking how to hardcode library paths into programs... immediate
checking whether make supports nested variables... (cached) yes
checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
checking for GL... no
checking GL/gl.h usability... no
checking GL/gl.h presence... no
checking for GL/gl.h... no
configure: error: GL not found
make[1]: *** [package/pkg-generic.mk:240: /media/adrian/DyskB/buildroot/buildroot/output/build/libglu-9.0.1/.stamp_configured] Błąd 1
make: *** [Makefile:84: _all] Błąd 2

How to deal with it? It seems that this error and issue with running app have common ground.
