From Illustrated London News, March 29, 1862.
The south branch of the Fraser has its sources near Mount Brown, in the Rocky Mountains, in about 53 deg. North latitude, 118 deg. 40 min. west longitude. Thence this branch flows for 200 miles to Fort George, a post of the Hudson's Bay Company. The north branch rises in an opposite direction, It receives its supply from a series of lakes lying between 54 deg. And 55 deg. Of north latitude, longitude about 124 deg. 50 min. west, and runs a course of 260 miles to its junction with the south branch, some miles below the 54th parallel of north latitude. Here the union of the two branches forms the Fraser River proper. Adding the north branch, which is also a gold-bearing stream, and which was worked last season, to the other arm, the two will give us a continuous stretch of auriferous riverain territory upwards of 1000 miles in length, extending for many miles back into the country on both sides, but not including the tributary rivers which fall into the Fraser. In short, the river itself is now known to be auriferous, and to pass through a gold-bearing country throughout its whole course. Gold is also found in most of the tributaries of the Fraser, of which no less than fifty-nine are know. The great length of the main river and the number of its tributaries will give some idea of the auriferous resources of the country.
But these facts do not by any means convey a comprehensive or accurate view of the vast extent of the area of the goldfield, because they are limited to the central portions of the country, while the whole of the upper portion of British Columbia, from its southern to its northern boundary, is auriferous.
Besides the gold found in the beds and on the shores of these streams, the Fraser itself and many of its tributaries are skirted or bordered by terraces, all which yield gold also. These terraces, or benches, as the miners call them, run at intervals along both sides of the rivers for miles in length; and they recede, where the mountains retire, for distances back into the valleys, varying from a few acres to a few miles in breadth. They are objects of curiosity and speculation, and add much to the beauty of the rude scenes in which they occur from the regularity and evenness of their structure. They generally occur on both sides of the river (opposite to each other), at the same place, sometimes at the same elevations on both sides, sometimes at different elevations, high on this and low on the other side of the river; and in some places they are multiplied into several successive level parallel plateaux, rising one above the other as they recede from the bank. These terraces contain vast deposits of gold; and to be worked to advantage the bench diggings must command a stream of water supplied from a source higher than their own surfaces, so as to give a fall to enable the miner to apply the water to the face of the "bench" by a hose. The force of the stream is due to the height of the fall. A good strong stream playing upon the face of the hill will disintegrate a great quantity of "pay dirt" in a short time. The floating rubbish, or "dirt," is caught in a long sluice at the base, provided with "riffles" on the bottom, and spread with quicksilver to catch the gold. This mode of mining is called by the miners "hydraulic mining." Such is the wealth of Cariboo that no quicksilver was used, for the miner could afford to lose all the "fine dust" and to be satisfied with the "lumps."
Apropos to the subject of river mining, I would notice the remarkable fact that the streams which flow from the east are observed to be all auriferous, while those which run from the west are not so. Does this distinction prove that the source of a all the gold spread over the goldfield is in the Rocky Mountains? The circumstance lends feasibility to this theory, and it is strengthened by the discovery of gold on the east side of the Rocky Mountains in rivers which take their rise in the same chain, but at the opposite side. You are aware that gold is worked on the Saskatchewan, the sources of which are not very far from those of the Fraser. We have also late information of the finding of gold on Peace River, which has its source also in the Rocky Mountains. We are informed that Peace River country contains silver and other ores-a specimen of one of which goes to the exhibition.

RNC Threatens Trump
What are they thinking?
In a shocking turn of events, the Republican National Committee which has already paid out around $2 million to lawyers to represent former President Donald Trump, now is threatening to stop paying these lawyers if Trump decides to run again in 2024.
According to ABC, an RNC official said that the party's "neutrality policy" restricts them from taking sides in any presidential primary.
Some Republican leaders are concerned that Trump will hurt their chances in the midterms by announcing a presidential run too early. They are hoping that threatening him now will prevent him from announcing his run too soon.
"I'm not telling anybody to run or not to run in 2024," RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel explained.
McDaniel went on to say that she still sees Trump as the leaders of the GOP.
These claims that Trump was threatened by the RNC comes from ABC News Chief Washington Correspondent Jonathan Karl's new book "Betrayal: The Final Act of the Trump Show".
Both Trump and the RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel have aggressively denied these accusations. So did the RNC really threaten Trump or is this more manipulation by the mainstream media to cook up controversy in the Republican party? The truth is currently unknown however this could go either way.

Do you distribute OpenOffice on CD/DVD? Where is the old distribution list/information?
The Apache OpenOffice project distributes Apache OpenOffice online, as a free download from our website. Although this is sufficient for most users, we also know that for other users, a copy of OpenOffice on CD-ROM or other media is preferred.
We used to have a "Distribution Project" that listed the contact information for 3rd parties who would provide, at a charge, a CD-ROM containing OpenOffice. We've suspended this program. If you want to voice your opinion on the distribution project, or offer any opinions, please send them to our public mailing list, at dev@openoffice.apache.org.
What do I need to know about the OpenOffice License?
Apache OpenOffice, since version 3.4, is distributed by the Apache Software Foundation and uses the Apache license, Apache License v2. More about this license and how this license applies to various scenarios can be found on the Apache License and Distribution FAQ page.
Versions 3.0-beta to 3.3, named OpenOffice.org 3.3, etc., used the GNU Lesser General Public License v3, LGPL.
You should comply with the terms of these licenses for any distribution you undertake.
Can I let my clients download your software and use your logo on my website or other distribution media?
Please see the Apache OpenOffice Trademarks page for more information about the "Apache OpenOffice" and "OpenOffice.org" trademarks and what you need to do to use them. Also, please review information which applies to older OpenOffice.org logos and icons on the OpenOffice wiki.
Can I Produce a CD/DVD of your software and distribute it?
Yes, this is covered under Apache License 2 for Apache OpenOffice 3.4 or later, and covered under the LGPL for older versions. Please see I'm not a lawyer. What does it all MEAN? section of the Apache License FAQ page. This means you can distribute unmodified versions of Apache OpenOffice as Apache OpenOffice, without modifying the product name.
Can I sell, on CD or DVD, an unmodified version of Apache OpenOffice on Ebay or similar site?
Apache OpenOffice can be downloaded free from the official site http://openoffice.org. Apache, the Apache feather logo, and OpenOffice are trademarks of The Apache Software Foundation. OpenOffice.org and the seagull logo are registered trademarks of The Apache Software Foundation.
Note that use of other trademarks, such as the OpenOffice logo, requires explicit permission. See http://openoffice.apache.org/trademarks.html.
I want to link to your product/page. Will you partner with me and link to mine?
Due to the number of potential distributors of Apache OpenOffice, this is not feasible. We are hopeful that well-known search engines will be able to find your "packaging" or "distribution" with minimal effort.
Can I distribute OpenOffice on a CD, or from my website and call it something else?
Generally, no. If such a need arises for whatever reason, please contact the Apache OpenOffice PMC.
Can I distribute OpenOffice and use my company's name with it?
If you, as company ABC, wish to distribute OpenOffice on a CD with a label "ABC OpenOffice", the answer is "no". This would be a trademark use violation. This is covered in the Apache License version 2 document under section 6. Trademarks .
You could use wording such as "ABC's Office Suite Powered by Apache OpenOffice" as an alternative. Please contact the Apache OpenOffice development list with additional questions about this type of use.
Please contact the Apache OpenOffice PMC.

In a recent press conference, Anne Curtis refused to divulge more details about the controversy surrounding a viral Snapchat post of her boyfriend, Erwan Heussaff, and her sister, Jasmine Curtis-Smith. "Just so you know, we are all okay. We are all good," she told reporters. Neither Erwan nor Jasmine have released statements on the issue.
3. Jiro Manio decides to give showbiz another try now that he's out of rehab
Former child actor Jiro Manio on January 25 was released from a six-month rehabilitation program from a wellness facility where he was confined through the help of actress Ai-Ai delas Alas. Manio said that after his second time at rehab, he is finally "healed." The 23-year-old actor said he will prepare to go back to showbiz, which is the first thing he and Ai-Ai talked about when he was released. "'Yong mga bagay na hindi ko na dapat balikan, iniwan ko na," he said. "Nag-promise po ako kay Mama Ai na aayusin ko, hanggang sa makabangon ako, at suklian ko ang lahat ng mga tulong niya sa akin."
4. Leonardo DiCaprio meets the Pope over environmental concerns
Leonardo DiCaprio visited the Vatican on January 28 for a private meeting with Pope Francis over their shared concern for the environment. DiCaprio offered His Holiness a book of works by the 15th Century Dutch painter Hieronymus Bosch, and showed him the reproduction of Bosch's Garden of Earthly Delights. The latter, he said, represented the Pope's environmental concerns. Meanwhile, Pope Francis gave the actor a copy of his encyclical Laudato Si (Praise Be), which denounced the use of fossil fuels and demanded greener energy resources.
5. The first trailer for DreamWorks' Trolls is too adorbs
DreamWorks describes its upcoming animated musical film Trolls as the "most smart, funny, irreverent animated comedy of the year." Its first trailer is finally here and you will see your childhood doll dance the Nae Nae! The cast includes Anna Kendrick and Justin Timberlake, with the latter producing and making music for the soundtrack. Trolls hits theaters in November.
6. Endangered eagle shot dead in Albay
A female Philippine hawk-eagle has died from a bullet wound sustained in Camalig, Albay. A resident saw the wounded animal and rushed the bird to a veterinary clinic, but it unfortunately died while being treated. According to the IUCN Global Species Programme, the number of hawk-eagles have dwindled to about 600 to 900, reportedly due to deforestation.
7. COMELEC partners with Facebook for May national elections
The Commission on Elections has announced that it has partnered with Facebook for the May 2016 national elections. This announcement was made just days after the poll body confirmed its team-up with Twitter. Global manager for Facebook's politics and government outreach team Katie Harbath said they will be helping the Commission on Elections (COMELEC) in crowdsourcing questions for the series of debates for the candidates that will be staged within the campaign period. Harbath also said there will be a "Voter Megaphone" option on Facebook for Filipino users 18 years old and above on the election day (May 9) so users can let other users know they have exercised their right to vote.
8. Poe guarantees to ease traffic "within a year" if she becomes president
On January 28, presidential aspirant Sen. Grace Poe vowed to ease the terrible traffic in the Philippines in one year—that is, if she becomes president. To do this, she said, "Just add the necessary number of trains. Start finishing the lines that are already supposed to be done, enforcing the rules, making sure that there's a proper drop-off for provincial buses outside of Metro Manila." Poe said that if the Philippines is to be a globally competitive country, there should be mass transport and rail systems outside Metro Manila. She also proposed building underground subway systems, and that there may be a need to hire foreign engineers to design them.

The Tight Job Market: This is Your Wake-Up Call - Wyndham Mills International Inc.
Increasing demand for talent in an increasingly tight job market means companies must wake up, take note and be proactive. We see the forecasts, the continual rise in numbers, the warnings blasted across our news feeds. Yet, so many are content to sit back on their laurels with their proverbial blinders on. It's time to make some adjustments or you will find yourself in a bad place, wondering how you got there. More and more candidates are sharing how fed up they are with how they are being treated. Companies should be working on the user experience as a differentiator that will ultimately provide a competitive edge in this war for talent.
Respond Quickly. In tight job markets, candidates are often reluctant about seeking a new job in the first place. They may not be completely confident that they are ready to make a career move, especially if they are comfortable and well-compensated in their current job. Failure to respond quickly (within 48 hours) communicates a lack of organization or high level of bureaucracy that may deter a candidate from continuing through the process.
Court the Candidate. Put your best foot forward during every step of the process. Be the employer of choice. Invite candidates to lunch or have them sit in on a team meeting. Go the extra mile and flatter them with your attention. Even if you end up not hiring the candidate, the company's reputation and brand is on the line. Always show respect for the candidate by keeping meetings, timelines and being prepared.
Communicate. Communicate. Be open and honest about the process, the steps involved and the timing. Silence makes a candidate feel unimportant and unwanted. If the process is delayed, communicate the reason to the candidate and assure them you are still interested.
Don't be a Cheapskate. It's a candidate's market which means it is the not the time to nickel and dime offers. Demand drives compensation and you must be ready to make your best offer upfront. Your offer of both compensation and benefits should be a reflection of your commitment to the candidate.
The solution to creating a positive candidate experience during the tight job market is really quite simple. Consider for a moment how you treat a prospective customer. Do you hold out to give them your best offer? Do you wait days or weeks to respond to their email or social inquiry? Or do you flatter your customers by making them feel like they are your #1 and only customer? Treat your candidates like you treat your customers. Give them the same customer service. Keep the same promises. Your hiring process is a reflection of your organization. Do you know how your candidates are treated or are you leaving that to your HR team? At the end of the day, it's your candidate. Be sure your organization leaves a favorable impression. The integrity of your brand and the success of your team depend on it.
At Wyndham Mills International, we desire to walk alongside our clients in the recruitment process. We choose to have real conversations with you, listen to your needs and find the candidate who is ready to propel your organization forward. We would love the opportunity to get to know you and your needs. We can talk about the tight job market, candidate expectations, executive search compensation demands, leadership development, retention, succession planning or recruitment. Let's get to know each other now so we are prepared to take the necessary action when a need arises. Give us a call today.

GTA 6 Early Plans Supposedly Included Four Protagonists In Three Cities
How big is too big for GTA?
By Mark Warren
Between a new GTA Online update and some rumoured details about GTA 6 being unveiled in rapid succession, last week was a pretty hectic time to be a GTA fan.
Many of these gun-toting individuals took a break from grinding heists, battling with griefers and buying all of the new content to give their views on the fresh info regarding the series' next entry included in a report by Bloomberg's Jason Schreier.
Now, however, some of them have been forced back to the social media pulpit, as some extra details regarding the original plans for the game have emerged.
Fans React To Ambitious Outline For GTA 6
In the Bloomberg report, Schreier states that the next GTA game's original plans were: "for it to be more vast than any Grand Theft Auto game to date."
In line with this, early plans included: "territories modelled after large swaths of North and South America", which were then scaled back to the currently reported setting of "a fictional version of Miami and its surrounding areas."
In terms of what these territories might have looked like, Axios Gaming's Stephen Totilo has since reported that, according to a source, at least one interaction of these early plans would have seen the game take place across three different cities, though it isn't clear exactly which cities these would have been.
Also included in Totilo's report is the suggestion that this particular version of the game would have included four playable protagonists, though this has also since been slimmed down to the Bonnie and Clyde-inspired pair outlined in Schreier's report.
These fresh revelations regarding the game we might've gotten have proved controversial among GTA fans in the subreddit r/GamingLeaksAndRumours.
Several users suggested that having four protagonists might be a little too many, with Zombienerd300 saying: "even three felt like too much (and) only worked because the characters themselves worked" and DeeDee_GigaDooDoo adding that having that number of protagonists made GTA V's story feel less "tight" than previous games.
On the other hand, the idea of the game taking place across three cities was viewed a little more positively, with many hoping that the cut land masses might end up being included in the game's eventual DLC.
Regardless of how you'd have felt about having more protagonists and cities than you can shake a stick at, make sure to follow us for more GTA Online and GTA 6 updates as new content is released.

How To Know Battery Amps
Battery mAh & C Rating = amp Calculator Kritikal Mass
Charge rate maximum should be around 1/4th of the capacity of the battery, which will vary by battery. I would charge an 8AH battery at 1 ampere, so it is done in approximately 8 hours, when it's voltage potential reaches 14.4 volts.... CCA is a rating used in the battery industry to define a battery's ability to start an engine in cold temperatures. The rating refers to the number of amps a 12-volt battery can deliver at 0°F for 30 seconds while maintaining a voltage of at least 7.2 volts.

A driver should know how many amps (or CCA) his or her car's battery is so there aren't any surprises when it's time to recharge. To find the amp amount, take a look at the owner's manual or measure the battery with a voltmeter. Depending on the power level of a trickle charger and the size of a battery, it can take hours or days for the trickle charger to fully restore a battery. how to get fuschia hair 18/10/2018 · A typical 5 amp charger may take more than 8 hours to charge the battery.

A Deep Cycle Gel Battery (also called a "gel cell") is a sealed, valve regulated lead-acid deep cycle battery and uses a gel electrolyte. Like AGM batteries this type of battery will not need to be kept upright. The major advantage of gel cells is that they can eliminate evaporation of the electrolyte, and all testing shows they have greater resistance to extreme temperatures, shock, and how to know if foot is broken Once you know how many amps are missing from the battery, it is a matter of just simple math to find out the time to charge. You take whatever amount is missing and then divide by two. For example, if you have a 50 amp battery that is half depleted, then it has 25 amps missing. You then divide 25 by two since that is the charging rate to get 12.5. This means it will take 12.5 hours for the

The Major and The Minor: For National Classic Movie Day Blogathon
Posted by jennifromrollamo in Movies.	Tagged: Billy Wilder, Charles Brackett, Dianna Lynn, Edward Fielding, Ginger Rogers, Ray Milland, Rita Johnson, Robert Benchley.	14 comments
Today, Saturday, May 16th, is National Favorite Classic Movie Day. Since every day of the week nowadays seems to have a special attribute assigned to it, why not a day in which to remember with fondness a favorite classic movie? I signed up to participate and this fun blogathon is being hosted by Rick over at Classic Film and TV Cafe. Please visit his site to read other bloggers' choices as to which classic film is their favorite.
For my favorite film I chose 1942's romance/comedy The Major and The Minor. It has a lot of pluses and few minuses: written by Billy Wilder and Charles Brackett, directed by Wilder, lead actor is Ray Milland, lead actress is Ginger Rogers, supporting actors and actresses are all good in their roles, too; Rita Johnson, Robert Benchley, Diana Lynn, Edward Fielding, Frankie Thomas, Raymond Roe, Charles Smith, Larry Nunn, Billy Dawson, and even a bit part played by Ginger's mom, Lela Rogers!
Billy Wilder had come to America, via Germany and France, having found successes in the fields of screenwriting and directing. With the rise of Nazism, he left Europe behind, and decided to pursue his filmmaking talents in Hollywood. In 1939 his work paid off with his screenplay for Ninotchka, the film that showed the world that Greta Garbo could laugh! That film was quickly followed with two more screenwriting successes for Wilder: Hold Back the Dawn, and Ball of Fire. In 1942 he got permission from Paramount Pictures to make his American directorial debut with The Major and The Minor. I am so glad that Paramount gave him the green light for this delightlful movie.
Ginger Rogers portrays Susan Applegate, a midwestern, small town gal who came to NYC in order to make it in show business. She had saved up her money each week for train fare home as she promised herself to give it one year in NYC and if she didn't make it, she'd take the train and head for home. She finally has had her fill of NYC, and her year is up, but at the train station she discovers that the money she saved isn't enough for an adult fare as the price has risen. Dismayed, she gets an idea when she watches a mother at the ticket window purchase a child fare ticket for her daughter. Susan realizes she has enough money to buy a child's fare ticket. Off she goes to the lady's restroom to turn herself into 12 year old "Susu" Applegate.
Susan entering the ladies restroom, and Susu emerging!
Susu gets her ticket, gets on the train, but when she goes outside onto a viewing platform to sneak a cigarette, the conductors, who are suspicious about her being a "child" catch her. She flees from their clutches and dives into the first overnight compartment she can find and it belongs to Major Philip Kirby, ably portrayed by Ray Milland.
Susu meets Major Philip Kirby.
Major Kirby is itching to get into WWII. He badly wants to serve his country. However, he's stuck teaching at a Boys Military Academy. He had been in Washington D.C. to see if he could get his military status reactivated, without his fiancee knowing of his plan. His fiancee,Pamela- a real schemer-played by Rita Johnson, and her father, Colonel Hill, principal of the Academy, -played by Edward Fielding, have no idea that Kirby wants to be on active duty.
Once the Major meets this minor, he feels protective of her. Susu is immediately attracted to the Major but she keeps up her ruse of being a child of 12, and lets the Major treat her as he would a niece. He lets her sleep in the lower berth of his compartment and during the night, unbeknownst to them, the train has to stop its travel due to flooded tracks further down the line. Pamela and her father manage to drive in to rescue Major Kirby and it's quite a funny scene when Pamela bursts into his compartment and finds Susu there in her nightgown!
Susu has to keep this act going as she gets a ride back to the Academy. Due to the flood, Susu will have to stay at the Academy until her family can come and get her. It's decided that she'll bunk in with Pamela's younger sister, Lucy. Lucy figures out quickly that Susu is really Susan. Lucy and Susan make a pact. If they can get Major Kirby's status activated, then he won't have to marry Pamela, who Lucy thinks is a "stinker". She doesn't want the Major to marry her sister.
Lucy doesn't fall for Susan acting 12.
Susu meets Pamela's little sister, Lucy.
Susu is also the new "catnip" on campus for all of the cadets and there is a hilarious montage of different cadets trying to kiss Susu while giving her a tour of their campus. If anyone ever puts an arm around the back of your neck and clutches one of your shoulders, then describes the "Maginot Line" with their other hand watch out! It's a clever way to grab you and pull you in for a kiss!
Susu has a lot of fans at the Academy!
There's another fun sequence at the school dance, which Susu has to attend, and the guest girl attendees all try to look like Veronica Lake, peekaboo hairdo and all. Robert Benchley, who plays a cad at the film's beginning and tried to make a pass at Susan, happens to show up at the Academy's dance because he's the father of one of the cadets! Susan has to avoid him as he could spill the beans as to her true identity.
Major Kirby has by now realized he doesn't want to marry Pamela, and there's something "funny" about Susu that he can't quite put his finger on. Milland does a really good job of playing the caring Major without coming off as a "creeper" to put it in my twin daughters' vernacular.
Like all good romance comedies, this film has a happy ending. The Major and the Minor is such a fun movie: charming, witty dialogue, clever plot development, I highly recommend it! If you are fortunate to have loved ones in your life who were teens or young adults in the 1940s, and they're still sharp as a tack, you should rent this film and watch it with them. I bet they'll enjoy that time with you and they can explain some of the pop culture references made in the 1940s, too! Here are a few more fun pics from the film.
The "Veronica Lake" hairdo-so popular at a school dance!

A Random List of 31 Things
Our random list of 31 favorite things that do and do not have to do with leadership...
Our random list of 31 favorite things that do and do not have to do with leadership, presented in no particular order (except #1, which is #1 for a reason). Why 31? We don't know, but that's how many numbered bricks are included with our cool little Lego® calendar we get to rebuild every month.
Here then is the list:
USAF speech by General Mark Welsh*** (even with the cheesy music and his 'Yo' introduction, absolutely 1053% does)
The Transformative Power of Classical Music by Benjamin Zander (does not at first, then definitely does, makes us cry, and is hands-down the most incredibly powerful TED Talk we have ever seen)
The movie 'Tree of Life' (does not, but the soundtrack is mind-blowing)
Suede's album 'Dog Man Star' (does not)
The blog Wait But Why (does and does not, but all of it is brilliant and often hilarious)
A River Runs Through It (the movie, does not)
A River Runs Through It (the book, still does not, but is filled with melodic writing)
Mount Assiniboine in autumn (does not, but just look at it!)
The book 'Daring Greatly' by Brené Brown (definitely does)
Steve Jobs' response to an insult (does, and exemplifies a rare humility and vulnerability)
Lego® (we wished it did, but we don't think it really does)
The last 3 minutes and 19 seconds of the movie '32 Short Films About Glenn Gould' (does not, but it's absolutely beautiful)
The movie 'Shine' (does because it embodies passion, the kind of deep-down passion it takes to play Rachmaninoff)
Leading from Behind (does)
Kim Scott's candidness (does)
The original Canon 5D (does not, and yes we mean the one from way back in 2005)
The HBR article 'What Great Managers Do Daily' (does)
'The Importance of Being A Lifelong Beginner' by Brendan Leonard, aka Semi-Rad (or the other way around, and our vote on this one is that it does)
The blog Semi-Rad, aka Brendan Leonard (or the other way around, does and does not, see #18 above)
Pretty much anything ever conceived by Ludwig van Beethoven, but particularly the allegretto from his seventh symphony (doesn't really, however)
Adobe Photoshop (does not, but it's crazy what you can do with it)
Tom Killion's art (does not, but it's amazing)
Early 1990s Toyota pickups (do not, but still good for adventuring)
Montbell UL Down Jacket (accept no substitute, but unfortunately does not)
Don Miller's podcast (does)
The book 'Quiet' by Susan Cain (yes, for all you introverts out there, and extroverts, too)
The book 'Outliers' by Malcom Gladwell (parts of it do, especially where he talks about mitigated speech)
Harvard Business Review (a lot of it does, which is why it's our #1 go-to resource for leading, managing, and everything in between)
Seinfeld (does not, but regardless… be prepared for a lot of Seinfeld references during our workshops and retreats)
Publik coffee (does not, but they roasted a batch of beans just for us once a long time ago which felt pretty special)
Airplane! (does, with a lot of imagination, and it happens to be one of our most-quoted movies of all time… 'Surely, you can't be serious?')
Thank you. We hope you've found some joy and wisdom and happiness in this little random list.
*** Due to the fact this is the most powerful speech we have ever come across on leadership, we included the entire thing. That said, we get you may be busy and not have fifty-plus minutes to sit down with a cup of coffee and behold all of the wisdom he shares. For that reason, someone was kind enough to make a 10-minute edit called 'Lead your people.' Prepare to cry. The General does, halfway through. Just saying.


EV - 043 Aaron Has Free Will Guys!
Guest Jody debates Aaron on Daniel Dennett's position on Free Will. We try to define what Free Will is and how that relates to a determinist philosophical view. We also examine the relationship of Free Will with consciousness.


So, its time to feed the troll. I do try and avoid this usually, but I was channeling some xkcd when I wrote this.
While my first exposure to computers was on a Commodore 64 then later with SystemV and Red Hat Linux (RHL), I started my professional career as a Windows desktop support lackey. In that role I learned a bit more about Windows, and began maintaining an Exchange 5.5 system and then later towards IIS and DNS management (backwards, I know). Within a a few short years I was ecstatic to return to the world of Linux sans Windows. One of the big things for me was that things I wanted to do were always a pain to accomplish, whether it was on Windows or Linux, but Linux allowed me to do it faster and easier.
The deepest development I do is python and some other scripting and web languages. I have never built Linux from scratch. I installed Gentoo once, but thought it was way to much effort. Slackware was nice, but I have always been a fan of my first Linux, Red Hat. My first personal server ran RHL 7.1 and was maintained with updates until they stopped coming. In fact, said server is sitting under my desk at home powered off, but still functional. It has not gotten an update in years, but that is because none were available. I ran RHL 7.2 on my Toshiba Protege for about 4 years.
I concede frustration in the early days of Fedora, because it was a rocky start, very bleeding edge, and not prone to stability. I even strayed to spend a year or so in the arms of another, ahh Ubuntu. Such a nice approachable mistress, but high maintenance between releases due to all the non-upstream modifications. (Not that Fedora was better mind you in upgrades, it didn't support release upgrades till Fedora 9). I did come back to Fedora around version 9 and have been staying up to date as time allows. I do prefer to stay completely current.. but time is not always in my favor. My current desktop is Fedora 14, I am waiting for 16's release to introduce the wifey to Gnome 3.
Way back in the day the bind-chroot package would blow away your named.conf on an update. But now that I think about that… it was not even RHEL. It may have been RHL.
In RHEL5 there was a openssh update that introduced dynamic tcp window scaling. We have a phantom network issue and thus started having stalled ssh data transfers. Not really the update's fault.
In RHEL5 they changed the tzdata package from noarch to arch-specific and you could end up with a bad old tzdata package installed. Did not actually break anything.
At one point kmod-nvidia blew up on a kernel update during the Fedora 13 time frame. The kmod was from RPMFusion and of nvidia's proprietary binaries… kind of an issue waiting to happen in the first place. I moved to the akmod (self-rebuilding kernel mod) package and haven't had an issue since.
I do have one habit that is rather mildly irritating to both myself and others, I am a big fan of playing with software that is supposed to do task X or have feature Y, but is not quite there yet. Sometimes this is due to it being bleeding edge, other times its just poorly maintained software, or maybe the vendor was just a liar. I have never had this habit destroy a system, usually just project timeline delays or the need to find a better solution.
So what is the point of this? I was forwarded a link to a rant on ZDnet this last Friday (2011.10.21) entitled Why I've finally had it with my Linux server and I'm moving back to Windows by David Gewirtz.
So, my quick synopsis on me. I am a fairly competent sysadmin with a background of being in the trenches. I took a C class in high school that used C/C++ for Dummies as the course material, and is practically the last time I touched it. I did list my scripting experience above. I have never touched kernel code. I never went to college.
Now that context has been set, here are quotes from his article followed by my responses. I am trying to consider that his rant was written while he was angry and (hopefully) just being melodramatic, but it is difficult.
And what exactly are you doing? Unless you are grabbing several repositories from random places and enabling them all at the same time, or installing everything from scratch this should not be an issue these days. 3-5 years ago? Maybe. 5-10 years ago? okay ya… probably.
Okay… so apt (Debian and Ubuntu) and yum (CentOS, Fedora, RHEL) are not the same software. So their commands are a touch different. They are also used in different distributions, so there might be different package names. I can see where that can be annoying, it has annoyed me at times. But this is complaining that your Windows box and OS X box do not use the same exact programs and syntax. There is software that exists on both of those platforms that require different installation and execution procedures.
Ahh reliability… such a subjectively quantifiable term. I like how you do not explain how it is not reliable, you just barges right on to knowledge and understanding. In fact the closest you come to saying anything about a lack of reliability is the update issue resulting in a crash, but this statement is completely separate from those statements in your rant.
Okay.. so it is my day job and thus I do spend a significant part of every day doing the work, I will give you that. But I have had plenty of dates (and am now happily married with a child on the way), lots of other responsibilities, and do not know lots of undocumented folklore (documented, sure). I do not frequent forums except as the result of searches, and I do almost all of my help searches strictly at google.com. There are times when I need more help than a search provides, and I use things like the mailing lists or IRC channels for that software. I do not always get the help I need, but I usually get it figured out. That being said… I rarely have those types of scenarios even with the bleeding edge things I play with all the time.
So unless you are pulling in packages from all kinds of non-reliable repositories or letting manually installed software override package installed software this should not be an issue. I would love to know what the root of this update issue was, because user error is the number one cause of package management updates on any systems in my organization.
I install machines, turn on updating, and walk away. They run. I really do not know why you are having such an issue and would actually love to know the truth behind your problems. It boggles my mind to the point where I felt the need to write this blog entry.
Take into consideration that I have a fairly general philosophy about running software on systems am responsible for either installing or administering.
Install software from trusted repositories. IE: the distribution + one (two is pushing it, but doable) external repository.
Avoid unpackaged software. Only install packaged software if you can. If it is not packaged, can you package it? It is not that hard, and other people benefit from your work.
With those 3 things in mind I usually have no issue with my systems.
What I love about this quote is that he attempts to deflect any possibility that he is at fault by saying the requirement of someone to have entry level junior system administrator skills is to much to ask for from someone that wants to be a system administrator.
Now that all being said. If you have a bad experience with Linux and are done with it, then fine. Enjoy Windows, or try to. Just remember that your experience is not the norm. Linux has greatly improved over the years, and from what I hear Windows is starting to get to the same point with updates and usability as my experience with Linux's updates has been. Are Windows admins still waiting for SP1 or 2 before applying updates? I wish you luck.
On a final note, it does worry me that this is the type of person advising Washington on technical issues and using such a public forum to spread FUD. Nothing in his background suggests that he is a competent system administrator. Product management and development? While development and system administration tend to overlap, in my experience most developers turned system administrators are more likely to have all kinds of funky behavior and configuration patterns on their systems.

How Much Does a Picket Fence Cost?
Pickets are the upright boards on a wooden or vinyl fence. A traditional picket-style fence is typically used as decorative residential fencing, with vertical wood or vinyl pickets 3'-4' tall, spaced an even distance apart and connected by horizontal bars. The top of a picket fence is often spiked, but can also be a smooth rail, a row of rounded pickets or an arched or scalloped line created by varying the height of the pickets. Backyard America and Lifetime Vinyl Fencing illustrate various picket fencing styles.
Materials to build a 3'-4' wooden fence in a picket style can cost $3-$30 or more a linear foot, depending on type of wood, height of the fence and the complexity of the design; with a gate or other options total costs can be $400-$1,800 for 100' and $1,000-$5,000 for 300' of fencing with do-it-yourself installation. For example, AskTheBuilder.com estimates it costs about $325 for do-it-yourself materials for a 48' fence built from individual wood pickets, and Hammerzone.com reports building a 4' tall picket fence 70' long for about $300 with 25 hours of labor.
With professional installation, a wooden picket fence can cost $10-$75 a foot, depending on local rates, the complexity of the installation (building on a slope costs more) and the style and height of the fence, or $1,000-$8,000 for 100' and $3,000-$24,000 for 300'.
With installation, expect to pay $15-$25 or more a foot for a vinyl picket fence, or $1,600-$3,000 for 100' and $4,600-$8,000 for 300', depending on local rates, the number of fence posts installed and the complexity of the installation (ease of access, whether the land is flat or sloped, etc.).
Fence posts are typically spaced 6'-8' apart. Installation is often done in two stages, with the post holes dug first and the fence posts set in concrete (or sometimes gravel). A few days later, after the concrete has hardened, the rest of the fence is constructed, either with preassembled panels or by nailing into place individual pickets and rails. Better Homes & Gardens explains how to build a simple wood picket fence and gate.
Before installing any type of fence, call 811 to have utility companies come out and mark any underground utility lines; or contact local utility companies directly. Also check local zoning, building and neighborhood codes; many dictate the height and type of fencing allowed, and property line set-backs required.
For do-it-yourself installation of fence posts, a manual post hole digger or auger typically costs $15-$110; buying a small power auger can cost $60-$600 or more depending on size and materials; and a one-day rental of a powered post hole auger can cost $50-$95, depending on location and type of auger.

You've found that special woman that you want to spend the rest of your life with and now it's time to find the ring that she will wear for the rest of her life. Wow, huge moment! I went through this with a lot of help from my family, a good referral from a friend, and a ridiculous amount of research online! Definitely learn the Four C's of Diamond Quality, but there's a few things that every guy needs to do right away!
Talk to her. Get help. Find a jeweler through a trusted referral.
If you haven't already talked about what sort of ring she likes, then you better start dropping little questions now. This decision is huge and she should be a part of it. I understand the desire to have the whole thing a surprise, and you definitely still can, but if you're comfortable enough to talk together about marriage, then you should be comfortable enough to talk together about what type of ring she wants. She's the one that will be wearing it for the next fifty or so years!
Mine was a bit easier because I got a huge hint early on! Just a few months into dating, Morgan and I were at the mall and dropped into a few jewelry stores (avoid these stores when you buy). We obviously weren't seriously looking and just sort of having fun, but then Morgan saw it... the one... her dream ring.
I got help, and I found a great jeweler through a trusted referral.
Help came in the form of my mom talking me through a lot of info on buying a diamond and help came in the form of a great referral from my good friend Jeff. Through him, I found The Diamond Source in Old Town. Jeff always said that when I was ready, that we would have lunch, eat tacos, drink tequila, and visit his diamond guy. Best choice ever!
The Diamond Source is an incredible family owned business that creates all sorts of custom jewelry. They made me feel completely comfortable and walked me through everything. Another huge point was how upfront they were with me. I found out that buying jewelry can be like buying a used car with negotiations going back and forth (you'll find this a lot at those mall jewelers). Fanny at The Diamond Source was totally upfront, I told her my budget and she told me what they could do for me. Easy and comfortable.
Months after we had seen it, I went back to the original jeweler that had Morgan's dream ring, took some photos of it on my phone and brought them The Diamond Source. They then custom made her ring with the raw diamond that I picked out. Long story short, not only did I get Morgan's dream ring for HALF the price, but Morgan's is slightly larger and more importantly, a higher quality diamond!
I wanted so badly to give Morgan her dream, but I thought it was completely out of my reach. By figuring out exactly what she wanted, by getting help, and by getting a great referral from a trusted friend, I was able to get Morgan her perfect engagement ring. Your story will be different and your lady's dream ring will be different, but with these three tips, you can make sure that she gets her dream too!
PS- INSURE THE RING IMMEDIATELY! As soon as you have that thing in your hands, get it insured. I went through Jeweler's Mutual and they gave me a great rate. The Knot has some good info too so you can learn more about it.


Researchers from NC State have developed a new approach to discover the risk assessment in software security and ensure the application development safety. This new system is called Protection poker and designed to help developers to determine the possible location of vulnerability in the code source even before its deployment.
According to this technique the team of software developers (Managers, developers…) plays a modified version of poker in a special set of cards. For example Managers provide developers with the needed Implementations functions, and all players should evaluate the importance of data, and try to discover the software security vulnerability.
The idea is to initiate discussion in the development team and put on the table all the specific knowledge from all participants.
You can read more about this methodology here.


For making a recipe for an item like a sword or a shovel you need to make 3 recipes: a recipe when the sword is at left, one when it's in the center and one when it's at right.
When you want to make a recipe for an axe or a hoe you need a lot of recipes.
This causes a lot of similar mod elements and JEI recipe duplicates.
So, can you add an option for recipes to make them "smarter"?
Raol, thank you for opening a ticket for this. I will work on recipe optimizator and hopefully release it in one of the next updates.
Also here is example from my mod, its crafting of twigs that uses custom planks but this recipe modifications allows them to be arranged it the same pattern as vanilla wood planks in crafting table.
So we do just need to remove empty columns?
For most cases that would be the fix, but not for all. When I come up with a good reliable algorithm to automatically do this, I will release a fix for this.
We will add smarter recipes system in MCreator 1.8.2 that will automatically make the recipe work with all variations. I am closing this ticket now.


It was discussed at the expert group that these interventions must be changed to 09S08. This is not only logical, but it may even result in wrong DRG assignment and may demand extra rules in the logic.
The technical changes lists the affected codes based on Swedish proposal in Case #540. It is possible that not all affected NCSP+ codes are included since some may be without corresponding Swedish code.
In the logic the rule with 09S07 and 00X10 (anaesthesia) should become unnecessary.
This is in pricipal technical change without effect on DRG assignment.
Sweden has controlled our procedure codes and we think they are correct. We do not need any addition. We do not have the finnish codes that has to be corrected. But we do have TQW99 Annat mindre ingrepp på hud eller subkutan vävnad that has OR2 but not procpro 09S07. But we think this is alright.
The principle was accepted. If in futre this kind of problems appear, this principle will be followed.


West Loop Riverside Plaza Center has an enviable location on the western side of the Chicago River. It offers beautiful views of the waterway, the Civic Opera House and the Mercantile Exchange. Yet, with Boeing's World Headquarters just a block away, and Chicago's world-famous downtown area and the awesome Willis Tower literally just over the river, the center at 10 South Riverside Plaza is truly in the commercial heartland of Chicago. It also very near to the River West area, which is increasingly popular with business. Chicago is a key player in every economic sector, with a growing economy, total trade increasing year-on-year, and a gross regional product of more than $475 billion. The center is ideally placed for accessing everything this successful city has to offer, and offers a selection of restaurants and cafes including Starbucks on-site. There is a Divy bike station outside the building and a complimentary fitness center for office clients. Covered parking within walking distance.

Q&A: Patrick Ewing
Dream Team practices, Olympic sneakers, and the new-look Warriors
By Jason Concepcion Aug 21, 2016, 2:09pm EDT
Share All sharing options for: Q&A: Patrick Ewing
Patrick Ewing founded Ewing Athletics, his own line of branded basketball shoes, in 1989, after leaving Adidas. It released several iconic models — most notably the 33-Hi and the Eclipse, the sneaker that Ewing wore while murking the world with the Dream Team in 1992 — before folding in 1996. The company was relaunched in 2012. Last month, Ewing Athletics held an event in Manhattan's Lower East Side to announce the reissue of the 1992 Ewing Eclipse Olympics shoe. Patrick Ewing was in attendance, and I spoke to him there.
Are there any favorite memories from the Olympics?
Well, you know, that's the Dream Team. So we had some great memories. We kicked butts, took names. It was just a great time. The practices were more fun than the games. No one could beat us. We could only beat ourselves. You had me going against David [Robinson]; Michael [Jordan] going against Magic [Johnson] or Clyde [Drexler]. We pushed ourselves, and made ourselves better just by the fact that we were playing against each other every day.
And now you work for Mike [Ewing is the associate head coach of the Charlotte Hornets]. What's that like?
It's great. He's not around day to day, but I talk with him from time to time. He's a great owner. Obviously, he knows the game of basketball. He gives his opinion when needed. Or, when he feels that it's needed. He's a great owner.
What's it like seeing your Olympic shoes getting this kind of appreciation years later?
I feel great. Not only that people still respect what I did, but also that David [Goldberg, of Ewing Athletics] put the shoes in the right places and helped to grow it.
What do you think it is about the Eclipse that draws people to it?
It's an iconic shoe, and the Dream Team was an iconic team. That team, those players, were plastered all over the world. People were able to see me performing in it, and see the level of success that we had in that era, in those games, and those Olympics.
You almost went to the Warriors (in 1991), before the Knicks brought in Pat Riley. What do you think of Kevin Durant joining them?
That's his decision. That's what free agency is all about. He chose to go to a place where he could possibly win a title. He would've gotten the most money out of OKC, but he chose to go somewhere else. No one knows how it's going to turn out. Or if they will win a championship again. But that's a great team. They have the talent to stack up with the great Lakers teams, the great Celtics teams, with all these dominant players.
I always wished the Knicks could've gotten you just any other guy who could reliably score 20 a game when you were not 35!
[Laughs.]
Do you ever imagine what it would be like if you were playing today?
I think if I played today, it wouldn't have been any different. I'd still be able to dominate the way I dominated my era. Probably even more. Because in my era, there were a lot more dominant bigs than there are now. The fact that I could score, rebound, play defense, block shots … would be a great asset to any team.
You had that corner 3 against the Celtics too!
[Laughs.] No, no, I'm not a 3-point shooter. I hit a few of them. Throughout my career I think I might have hit, maybe, 20. [Editor's note: 19.] But I know where my bread was buttered. I was inside-out to about 17 feet. That's it.
How much space would you have had down low if you had Steph spacing the floor in the mid-'90s?
So much.
One of the the criticisms you hear is players today are too friendly with each other. Yet I remember you used to work out with Alonzo Mourning every summer. And when the season rolled around, you guys were trying to kill each other.
When we played — me, Zo, Dikembe, Michael, whoever — we might have been friends off the court, but once we stepped on the court, it was all about trying to dominate that person. Trying to win. I'm not saying that these guys today aren't trying to do the same thing. But, because of the AAU-type of atmosphere, everybody's always traveling together, moving from city to city to join particular teams. There's [more opportunities to become friendly] than back when I played.
Could any of the post–Dream Team Olympic teams, including this one, have, not taken you guys, but given you a game at least?
No. No.
None of them could come close?
Maybe they could come close, but none of them could beat us.
Seven-game series, could they get a game?
They'd get a win. That's it.

Is a 303 British a good hunting rifle?
What rifle did the Union Army use?
Did the North have better weapons than the South?
Does Enfield still make guns?
An uprising in several sepoy companies of the Bengal army was sparked by the issue of new gunpowder cartridges for the Enfield rifle in February 1857. Loading the Enfield often required tearing open the greased cartridge with one's teeth, and many sepoys believed that the cartridges were greased with cow and pig fat.
The Lee Enfield enjoyed a good reputation with those who were issued with it. It had a ten-bullet magazine and its rate of fire in the hands of well-trained men was high. At the Battle of Mons, the advancing Germans believed that they were under fire from British machine guns.
Pattern 1853 Enfield Rifle-musket
58 caliber bullet used by both Union and Confederate forces was interchangeable with the . 577 Enfield. Hundreds of thousands of Enfield rifle-muskets were successfully smuggled into the South by the Confederacy during the war.
Was the Enfield rifle used in the Civil war?
The Enfield . 577 caliber rifled musket was the second most common weapon used in the American Civil War, largely because it was used by both sides. It was a British-made weapon with a large bore, firing cone-shaped bullets almost twice the bore size of the ones that U.S. soldiers used in World War I and World War II.
What was the rumour about the Enfield rifles?
start of Indian Mutiny
… in the mid-1850s, a new Enfield rifle was introduced into India that required a soldier to bite off the ends of greased cartridges in order to load the weapon. A rumour spread that the lubricant used was either cow or pig lard, which was repugnant to Hindus or Muslims, respectively.…
There was a rumour that the grease in the rifle cartridges was the fat of cows and pigs. The Hindus worshipped the cows, and the Muslims detested pigs. This raised a furore among the Indian Sepoys, and they refused to use the newly introduced rifles.
The . 303 British Mark VII cartridge was loaded with 37 gr (2.40 g) of Cordite MDT 5-2 (cordite MD pressed into tubes) and had a muzzle velocity of 2,440 ft/s (744 m/s) and a maximum range of approximately 3,000 yd (2,700 m).
The Lee–Enfield bolt-action, magazine-fed, repeating rifle was the main firearm used by the military forces of the British Empire and Commonwealth during the first half of the 19th century. It was the British Army's standard rifle from its official adoption in 1895 until 1957.
What was the most accurate Civil War rifle?
In October 2017, a surviving example of a Confederate Whitworth rifle was auctioned with a hammer price of $161,000. The Whitworth rifle was considered to be the very best rifle of its time in terms of accuracy, when compared to other British, French, American rifles, or those produced elsewhere.
What was the most used rifle in the Civil War?
Springfield Model 1861 Rifle
This was the most popular gun during the Civil War. The Springfield was a . 58 caliber with a 40-inch long barrel. It was loaded through the tip of the barrel with gun powder to shoot a Minié ball.
Why did Indian soldiers oppose the use of Royal Enfield rifles / guns? Answer: The bullets were used for the guns smeared with the fat of pig and cow.
To load the rifle, the rifleman or sepoy had to pull out a cartridge and bite off the bullet, which was at one end, and pour the pre-measured powder down the barrel, followed by the ball. This, in turn, was followed by the greased paper and then rammed in.
A rumor spread that the cartridges were greased with the fat of cows and pigs. The Hindus regard cows sacred and the Muslims regard pigs as unclean. Therefore the Indian Soldiers were unhappy with the new rifles.
Why did the soldiers refused to use long range Enfield rifles?
Complete answer: Indian soldiers oppose the use of Royal Enfield rifles/ guns because the cartage is made up of cow fats and pictures, Indian soldiers oppose the Royal Enfield weapon. And before inserting it, a sepoy had to pause for a while. Hindus and Muslims in the region were both outraged by this.
Is the 303 a powerful round?
303 British round was never a particularly powerful nor a particularly hunter round. It will bring down animals up until the size of, to say, a fallow or a buck, but it would be already too weak for a deer. It is thus highly unsuitable on potentially dangerous game. There are not many modern rifles available for the .
The . 303 British was once the most common in the world, but it's become very hard to find in recent years. You've got less than a month to find ammunition and get sighted in.
The integrally-suppressed L118A1 AWC variant is used exclusively by the SAS. Long range standalone .50 BMG anti-materiel rifle that is based on and replaced the AW50.
The . 303 British makes a good choice as an all-around cartridge, with enough rifles still in commission and enough good ammunition to feed them. Modern ammunition is centered around the 150- and 180-grain bullets, and the velocities tend to run just a bit slower than the .
What was the deadliest weapon in the Civil War?

Model 1857 12-Pounder "Napoleon" Gun.

Was 45 70 used in the Civil War?
45-70 Government), was developed by the US Army. This was at the Springfield Armory for use in the Springfield Model 1873 (also known as the trapdoor Springfield). Much had been learned from the Civil War, and minimum acceptable accuracy of the . 45-70 using the 1873 Springfield was set at about 4 inches at 100 yards.
Rifles and muskets
Springfield M1861 rifled musket Most widely used rifled musket of the civil war. Main feature was the elimination of the Maynard tape primer from the earlier Springfield M1855.
Springfield M1863 rifled musket A slightly modified version of the Springfield M1861.
Starr M1858 carbine
Here again, Northern soldiers had better shoes compared to confederate soldiers. Therefore, in comparison, Union soldiers had better weapons, better food, and better clothes than the Confederate army. The South never lost a battle due to a shortage of weapons or powder or food and clothing.
A redesign of the Lee–Metford (adopted by the British Army in 1888), the Lee–Enfield superseded the earlier Martini–Henry, Martini–Enfield, and Lee-Metford rifles.
