This Fall, for the first time, Fielding Hills Winery will be utilizing an upright conical oak tank for fermenting and aging a portion of red wine.
This 30hL (hectoliter – see definitions below) or 793-gallon oak tank is currently being constructed in Cognac, France. Throughout the construction, the cooperage has been taking pictures of the process, so we are able to give you a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to build an oak tank.
About 36 months before the tank construction begins, oak trees are harvested from designated forests across France. These trees are then sent to the cooperage where they are milled into staves and left to air-dry for 36 months outside in the elements. This air-drying process allows harsh wood tannins to naturally leach from the wood, resulting in less wood tannin transfer to the finished wine. After this aging process, the staves are brought back into the cooperage to be planed and sanded in preparation for assembly.
To begin the tank assembly, or raising the tank, staves are laid out on a flat surface in the order in which they will be assembled. This step allows the cooper to pick-and-choose appropriately sized staves to achieve the desired tank circumference that results in a final tank volume of 30hL. Once stave layout is determined, assembly begins. Staves are stood up vertically and the conical design of the tank beings to take shape. Five metal hoops are positioned around the outside of the tank, at various heights, to ensure the staves are joined tightly.
Once the hoops are tightened, the tank undergoes a nearly day-long internal toasting process (at this point there is no top or bottom to the tank, just the side stave walls). This toasting process not only helps to permanently bend the staves to their final shape but also seasons the oak in a way that will add depth and complexity to wines fermented and aged within.
After the toasting and final tightening of the hoops and staves is complete, a very counter-intuitive step is taken; the tank is taken back apart. Once again the staves are laid out on a flat surface (each stave was numbered and its orientation determined before the tank was disassembled). The main reason why the tank is disassembled is to add the bottom/floor of the tank at re-assembly. It is also at this step in the process that tank accessory locations are determined (door, valves, sample port, etc.) and marked accordingly on the tank.
Once the tank has been re-assembled (this time with the bottom/floor of the tank in place), the exterior of the tank is hand sanded.
A coat of specialty wood varnish is applied to the exterior of the tank and the hoops are painted black. The specialty wood varnish helps seal the tank exterior and prevents wine stains once the tank is in use, but at the same time doesn't impede oxygen transfer through the pores of the wood.
Holes are cut into the tank and accessories are affixed. Once all accessories are in place the top/roof of the tank is installed and one last coat of wood varnish and black hoop paint is applied. Lastly, the tank is wrapped and crated for shipment via ocean-liner.
The tank is scheduled to show up here at the winery mid-August where it will be positioned in the cellar, just in time for harvest. The 2017 Merlot will be the first to christen the new tank this Fall. The Merlot grapes will ferment in the tank for 7-14 days before the wine is pressed off of the skins. The resulting wine will then be pumped back into the tank were it will age for 22 months before being bottled. After another year in bottle the 2017 Fielding Hills Merlot will be available to the public; in the year 2020.
Hectoliter – A metric unit of capacity equal to one hundred liters.
Staves – A narrow length of wood with slightly beveled edges that form the sides of a barrel or tank.
Cooper – A maker or repairer of wooden casks, barrels, or tanks.
Hoops – Metal parts around the barrel or tank that holds the staves in place.

Manaea Throws 6 Scoreless, A's Beat Rangers 6-1 For Sweep
Filed Under:Arlington, Athletics, Baseball, Globe Life Park, MLB, Oakland, Oakland Athletics, Rangers, Sports, Texas, Texas Rangers
ARLINGTON, Texas (CBSDFW.COM/AP) — The Athletics are returning home with a 1 1/2-game lead in the AL wild card race and plenty of confidence after a 6-1 trip.
Sean Manaea limited Texas to three singles over six scoreless innings, Matt Chapman and Marcus Semien homered to help break the franchise record for home runs in a season, and the A's beat the Rangers 6-1 Sunday.
"It seems like we're hitting on all facets of the game in this last stretch," said Chapman, whose ninth-inning homer set the club record at 244. "We have our eyes on hosting a wild-card game."
The A's extended their lead on the Tampa Bay Rays, who lost to the Los Angeles Angels 6-4. After going 3-1 at Houston and 3-0 at Texas, they'll host the Kansas City Royals for three games and the Rangers for three in their final homestand of the season.
"It's about that particular game and trying to win every one," A's manager Bob Melvin said, "and we know this time of year you have to win a lot of games and they're doing it at the right time."
A's rookie left-hander Jesus Luzardo allowed one run over the final three innings for his first save.
The Rangers dropped all three games of the series after returning to .500 on Thursday.
Manaea (2-0) made his third start since being activated for the first time this season on Sept. 1 following shoulder surgery last September. He has given up one run and six hits in 18 innings, striking out 21.
"His fastball plays up, he's a big kid," Rangers manager Chris Woodward said. "His ball kind of gets on you."
"I think that was the best my fastball felt — good location," Manaea said. "I don't know about the velo, but everything felt like it was on time and I was able to locate things better."
Oakland scored its first four runs in the third inning on Semien's two-run homer off Jonathan Hernández (1-1) and Seth Brown's two-run double.
Hernández made his sixth major league appearance and second start, both to open bullpen games. He pitched 2 2/3 innings, matching his career high, and allowed three runs, two hits and two walks before being followed by five relievers.
Brown also doubled in the second inning. The rookie is 20 for 52 with 12 RBIs and five multihit efforts in 16 games after being recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas on Aug. 26.
Luzardo allowed two hits, two walks and a wild pitch with four strikeouts in his second appearance since being called up from Las Vegas on Sept. 9. The run scored on a passed ball by Sean Murphy.
The Rangers are now 74-77 and will compete against the Houston Astros Tuesday night at 7:10 p.m.

The popularity of Ford's F250 Super Duty does not come as much of a surprise. Ford offers an incredible number of options for its Super Duty line. This means that the F250 can be equipped as a hard working fleet vehicle, or a fully loaded luxury hauler.
Whatever the owner's needs are, the F250 Super Duty is sure to satisfy. After all, the F250 can handle colossal payloads while still being easy and comfortable to drive. To add even more power and driving ease for those hefty loads, owners of the 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010 Ford F250 (F-250) can add K&N's performance air intake system 77-2577KTK.
With the addition of K&N's new Performance Air Intake System (77-2577KTK), F250 owners can realize a gain of nearly 14 extra horsepower. K&N's Research and Development Department tested a 2008 Ford F250 Super Duty 5.4 liter V8 on our in-house dynamometer. Results showed horsepower gains across the RPM range with an impressive 13.93 horsepower gain @ 4077 RPM at the wheels! K&N's 77-2577KTK air intake system gives F250 Super Duty 5.4 liter V8 owners the power they are craving.
K&N intakes are designed to dramatically reduce intake restriction as they smooth and straighten airflow. K&N cold air intakes completely replace the factory air intake assembly with an aerodynamically engineered tube and an oversized conical air filter. With a K&N Performance Air Intake System, consumers can count on increased acceleration and horsepower whether towing a toy hauler trailer, or heading to the job site.
This air intake system uses a conical shaped chrome top high-flow air filter (RC-5173) and powder coated aluminum heat shield in place of the vehicle's stock air box lid. The result is a high-flow air filter that captures harmful particles, provides a large surface area, and has a long service life. This K&N air filter performs for up to 100,000 miles before service is required, depending on driving conditions.
Improving the air path between the filter and the engine is the black powder coated, mandrel bent aluminum intake tube. Our black powder coated aluminum intake tubes offer power and a stock appearance. 77-2577KTK takes about 90 minutes or less to install, requires no cutting or drilling, and is covered by the K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty®.
For increased protection and style, K&N offers Drycharger® filter wrap number RC-5173DK that can be used in conjunction with 77-2577KTK. Drychargers® are made from a durable polyester material containing uniform micron openings which will stop small dirt particles and repel water; yet add little restriction to the airflow of the filter.

The Death of Privacy
The crafting by Gigapixel Panorama Photography of an image showing the crowd assembled in the streets of Vancouver on the evening of the Stanley Cup finals, on June 15, 2011 is leaving the reader perplexed. This image, which is constituted of the amalgamation of 216 pictures taken over 15 minutes, is detailed enough to allow the user to zoom in without sacrificing details, to the point where it is possible to identify each face among the crowd. This image appears to mark the end, at least symbolically, of privacy in the public space.
By the same token, Eli Pariser gave a conference for TED in February 2011) about the search results screening undertaken by Google algorithms, for one, and about the "filter bubble" thus created which cuts the user off from the rest of the world. Pariser calls on search engine algorithm programmers (but also on programmers from Yahoo! News, Amazon, Facebook, Netflix, etc.) to adopt a code of conduct that will expose the users not only to content that "resembles them", but also to content that may encourage a sense of public engagement. Pariser argues that while the Internet was supposed to free the citizen from the media filters that traditionally guarded access to information, the current practices are re-creating these barriers. This presentation questions the position of the learner vis-a-vis information: as citizens, as managers, as analysts, should we favour information based on its proximity to our interests and its immediate relevance, or should we favour information featuring new ideas, new people and new perspectives, so as to foster learning?
Based on the Gigapixel Panorama Photography-crafted picture and Eli Pariser's presentation, should we conclude that privacy and freedom of thought have disappeared, whether from the public sphere or cyberspace?


The superb vocalist Jim McGowan is at the center of any history concerning this group called the Four Toppers. Not only should the group not be confused with Motown's later hitmakers the Four Tops, it is not the same as a group called the Four Toppers that was active in the '30s and '40s. McGowan began singing professionally in the mid-'40s in the company of several childhood friends, a period in which the activity of the first group called the Four Toppers was beginning to bottom out. Working in the style of gospel harmony known as jubilee, McGowan and associates performed at social events, storefront churches, and simply on street corners, at first dubbing their aggregation the Starlight Toppers. Use of the name the Four Toppers came about when a manager, Hattie Brisbane, pushed through a change from gospel to pop in the group's repertoire. In this context the group made its debut at the Brooklyn Academy of Music in early 1952; within short shrift, several members were drafted and sent off to Korea.McGowan next used the name the Four Toppers in the following year with half the membership replaced. When he began suffering from serious health issues, the members of the group moved performing to the bottom of the pile. McGowan was back in action in 1954, first in various versions of the Schemers and finally in the Four Fellows. Here's where the wartime experiences of some of the members may have counted for more than bad memories; "Soldier Boy," written by member David Jones while serving in Korea, became the group's best-known hit.

Q: What does fpstrict do in Java? I read the JVM specification for the fpstrict modifier but still don't fully understand what it means.
Can anyone enlighten me?

A: I like this answer, which hits the point:

It ensures that your calculations are equally wrong on all platforms.

A: strictfp is a keyword and can be used to modify a class or a method, but never a
variable. Marking a class as strictfp means that any method code in the class will
conform to the IEEE 754 standard rules for floating points. Without that modifier,
floating points used in the methods might behave in a platform-dependent way.
If you don't declare a class as strictfp, you can still get strictfp behavior on a
method-by-method basis, by declaring a method as strictfp.
If you don't know the IEEE 754 standard, now's not the time to learn it. You have, as we say, bigger fish to fry.

A: Basically, it mandates that calculations involving the affected float and double variables have to follow the IEEE 754 spec to the letter, including for intermediate results.
This has the effect of:

*

*Ensuring that the same input will always generate exactly the same result on all systems

*The CPU may have to do some extra work, making it slightly slower

*The results will be, in some cases, less accurate (much less, in extreme cases)

Edit:
More specifically, many modern CPUs use 80 bit floating point arithmetic ("extended precision") internally. Thus, they can internally represent some numbers in denormalized form that would cause arithmetic overflow or underflow (yielding Infinity or zero, respectively) in 32 or 64bit floats; in borderline cases, 80 bit just allows to retain more precision. When such numbers occur as intermediate results in a calculation, but with an end result inside the range of numbers that can represented by 32/64bit floats, then you get a "more correct" result on machines that use 80bit float arithmetic than on machines that don't - or in code that uses strictfp.

Delta to debut wholly reinvented international Main Cabin experience
Delta Air Lines has made this announcement:
First-of-its-kind service will launch for Main Cabin customers on international flights in November
Customers can expect to be impressed on board Delta's international routes* starting this November when the airline debuts its industry-leading Main Cabin experience. Free "Welcome Aboard" cocktails featuring Bellinis to start, hot towel service and mix-and-match options for premium appetizers and larger entrees are just a few of the ways Delta is differentiating its international Main Cabin service.
"This is about investing in every single customer who chooses Delta, no matter where they sit on the plane," said Allison Ausband, Delta's Senior Vice President — In-Flight Service. "The thoughtful touches we're investing in throughout the new Main Cabin experience were designed by flight attendants with one goal in mind — delivering an exceptional experience that our customers will rave about and one that our team, the best in the business, is proud to deliver."
Designed to delight and create "wow" moments that feel like dining in your favorite splurge restaurant, Delta's reinvented Main Cabin experience has been met with high marks — with increased customer satisfaction scores on the more than 700 flights it's been tested on between Portland and Tokyo-NRT over the past year.
A Main Cabin experience designed by flight attendants, endorsed by customers
The experience launching in November isn't the same service Delta started testing more than a year ago. Rigorous reviews of the service through nearly 14,000 hours of flight time, information from over 1,800 customer surveys, robust crew feedback and input from a design team made up of 24 flight attendants resulted in a number of changes to perfect the innovative service for Delta's international flights.
"With this service, at the end of the flight I know I've made a difference in the customer's journey," said Michael Miller, a New York-based flight attendant and member of the design team behind the new experience. "I know I've had the opportunity to not only offer an exceptional onboard experience, but also to engage with customers and create special moments for them."
Creating magical moments in-flight
In addition to these enhancements, over the past several months, Delta has provided specialized training to its team of more than 3,000 Pursers — the lead flight attendants on international flights. Responsible for the customer experience from nose to tail, the Purser role at Delta has been elevated to include pre-flight introductions in the gate house and personal greetings at the boarding door — just a few examples of the important connections between crew and customers that lead to memorable moments and a delightful experience all around.

Q: Aggregating/Paging through Twitter Search/Tweets 1.1 API ? I would like to aggregate/page through the search tweets using the new Search/Tweets v1.1 Twitter API. However, I can't understand how since_id and max_id works to do paging or get more tweets. Didn't get the idea of them.
Can anyone possibly do a simple example with some explanation? preferably in php.
Thanks!

A: Every tweet ever created is an incrementing value, each tweet from the API is assigned  id_str
This can be used as an offset for future requests
The value expected for max_id is the limit of the offset
So imagine the latest tweet result from the API the id_str is: 345923546427568120
Subtrack your tweets per page e.g 10 from that number and then do your next request with:
since_id=345923546427568100&max_id=345923546427568110 back 10 tweets
since_id=345923546427568090&max_id=345923546427568100 back 20 tweets
since_id=345923546427568080&max_id=345923546427568090 back 30 tweets
The initial 345923546427568120 value can be set somewhere e.g session or a js var to go forward after going back some tweets, or better yet cache the result set for a short time.
Hope it helps

Costa Rica Real Estate Life
Probusiness Data Protection Changes Take Place in Costa Rica
Daveed Hollander
Costa Rica Investments, Costa Rica Lifestyle, Costa Rica Real Estate
According to a Bloomberg BNA report, privacy professionals stated that several changes to Costa Rica's personal data protection legislation were recently introduced. These changes are intended to make life for multinational companies easier. They are also designed to further the rights of data owners.
Officially known as Executive Degree JP-40008, an earlier requirement whereby registered databases held by different units within the same company had to share information, was dropped. As for consent, this legislation introduces a principle known as "unequivocal" assent. With this, database holders are required to be in a position where they can prove to Prodhab, Costa Rica's Citizens Data Protection Agency, that they were granted consent "in an indubitable" fashion. They must also give data owners access to their own information.
The decree goes on to state that if any services are subcontracted, the database holder is still primarily responsible for data integrity and security before the law. Another thing clarified in the decree is how the decade long "right to be forgotten" principal has to be calculated. As part of this new decree, both sides are allowed to freely negotiate regarding the exact date to use as a starting point.
The companies that will benefit the most from this law are those the need to transfer data internationally within its business unit, as well as companies that market data. The biggest demands made by local and international companies pertained to dropping the requirement for registration and reducing fees, this according to Gabriela Arroyo, attorney with Soley, Saborio & Asociados law firm in San Jose, Costa Rica.
However, there were other aspects of this new law. For example, it eliminates the "super-user" concept, which in the past allowed Prodhab to have unrestricted access to listed databases. In addition, this law tightens procedures that database holders have to follow in order to get an owner's consent for data transfers. The law also cuts two points in royalties that database holders are paid for market information. As imagined, many companies are concerned.
Goodbye to "Super-User"
Viviana Solis, attorney at Costa Rica's Legal Business Advisors, said to Bloomberg BNA in December, "The notion of 'super-user' made no sense at all". This concept, which was unique to this Central American country, was never mentioned in the 2011 Personal Data Protection Act. Instead, it was only adopted in 2013 through the implementation of regulations.
Of particular trouble for companies were prior super-user powers by Prodhab. The reason is that it created potential for those powers to run against confidentiality clauses that are a common business feature. As Arroyo explained, for companies that had to comply, this put them at serious risk for being sanctioned due to a scenario of breach of contract.
The other issue is that the language used in the clause for super-user is extremely vague. Therefore, it lends incredible discretionary powers to the head of Prodhab. As stated by Arroyo, "Getting rid of this clause was one of the main achievements of the reform."
Data Sharing within Companies Becomes Easier
"Previously, a company with a unit in Costa Rica and headquarters in the U.S., needed to register its database before they could shuffle data back and forth", Arroyo said. "Now, only the transfer of information between two parties on a for-profit basis requires database listing". Even if both sides operate under different brands, this waiver applies.
Solis strongly recommended that companies go ahead and register with Prodhab in that "they will be regarded as companies eager to comply with local and international security, quality, and confidentiality data-use standards, which these days is extremely important."
Solis went on to say, "This reform gives a respite to multinationals operating in Costa Rica in the sense that if they are part of one economic group and don't disseminate, distribute to third parties, sell, or commercialize their databases, they can share their content among them, without a need to register."

Die weisse Rose / The White Rose (1982) DVD5, Blu-Ray
by movieworld on September 27th, 2021 at 17:29
Posted In: .Other movies, Biography, Crime, Drama, History, Thriller, War
During the Second World War, a small group of students at Munich University begin to question the decisions and sanity of Germany's Nazi government. The students form a resistance cell which they name the "White Rose" after a newsletter that is secretly distributed to the student body. At first small in numbers and fearful of discovery, the White Rose begins to gain massive support after a Nazi Gauleiter nearly incites a student riot after a provokative speech. At this point, the matter is taken over by the German Gestapo, who pledge to hunt down and destroy the members of the White Rose.
The gripping true story of Sophie Scholl — a young German woman who was murdered, along with several others, for daring to voice anti-Nazi sentiments during the height of WWII — was brought vividly to life in the Oscar-nominated film Sophie Scholl: The Final Days (2005), a powerful, must-see modern movie. More than twenty years earlier, Michael Verhoeven's The White Rose told the same story, from a slightly different perspective. While Sophie Scholl was based on recently unearthed transcripts of Sophie's interrogation after being caught distributing anti-Nazi flyers at Munich University, and essentially begins at this late point during her "final days", The White Rose depicts the evolution of the titular group's activities, showcasing how a handful of German youths eventually came to believe that their country was headed for imminent disaster under the leadership of Adolf Hitler, and were determined to try to bring the war to an end.

List of current treatments that are effective. Winter season has increased inflammation levels, appropriate nutrients listed.
Rifing and toxin elimination is making a problem, so away from fruits and towards the paleo diet again for me! Lots of salt and vitamin C, I need to be able to pee, not supplement and take in potassium-rich elements.
Short summary of the supplements (nutrients) which have helped lower my daily insulin requirements, and a list of the treatments I have read which have resulted in healings of type 1 diabetes.
Here's a summary of things I've experienced and learnt over the period I haven't been posting on this blog. :) There's several clues in this post about what causes/contributes to type 1 diabetes, some nutritional remedies that help bloodsugars, and what types of magnesium worsen the condition.
January is being difficult, but it's clear from encouragement in prayer, that I shouldn't waver left or right. I had a vision while praying, about God's light breaking into this world.
An observation of how parasitic die-off in my body during detox might give a direct insight into the issues of type 1 diabetics..
I woke up again this morning with a 10,4 BG (norm 4-7). I certainly ate the food my hubby wanted to have- the one last difficulty is long-term dosing to cover slow-digesting foods. I've started using calcium bentonite more heavily, and am waiting for my niacin (nictonic acid) to arrive.
Things are in full swing with me- right down to supplementation to fight a heavy-metal induced depression, to drinking clays. Oi!
I tried NAC, ALA and selenium before removing my amalgams. Here's what happened, here's what I'm doing to ease it.
Adding the D3 (5,000 iu/day) and magnesium to my daily intake has certainly changed some things. I feel much worse when my blood sugar is between 10-13 mg/dl (which has always been the range of mood swings), but it does help me recognize when I require more insulin.


We have two network segments in the same office. One segment is running a Netware based network, the other is running MS Networking. Each segment is on its own hub. The Netware segment is connected to a DSL router for Internet access. The MS segmenthas a proxy server on it, and is connected to both hubs, giving Internet access to the MS segment.
My question is, is it possible to let certain computers see other computers on opposite segments via the proxy server (which serves as the link between the two segments)? If so, what do I need to do?
I'm a little out of my depth here but forget about Proxy Server. GSNW will give you access from NT to Netware. You must also create an NTGATEWAY account on the Netware server. FPNW will allow the Netware side to access file and print services from NT. It sounds like this is what you're trying to do.
The previous answer will enable your MS clients on the MS Segment to access the resources on the Netware Server. If you want your MS clients to see and access the Netware clients, you will need to add the appropriate Netware redirector onthe MS clients and/or the MS redirector on the NW clients.
Assuming you are using Win95, you would need to add the Microsoft CLient for Netware to client network config. In NT you would add Client Service for Netware to the services under Network config.
You of course will need to mkae sure that the clients are using the same protocol (TCP/IP or IPX/SPX (nwlink for MS)).
This will enable all clients on each segment to "talk" to one another, plus you should then be able to access resources on each server from the different clients.
If you requires machines on one segment to access resources on another segment you are will need to link the 2 together, But I would leave proxy out of the picture.
Either purchase a bridge and connect the 2 hubs via the bridge. you could just connect the 2 hubs together although you increase the size of the collision domain be doing this.
Thirdly you could install RRAS on an NT server with 2 NICs installed, 1 to each segment and then configure the box as a router.

Q How long does it usually take to get like the serologic tests back or the slides and things like that?
A It would depend. On the slides, if we just do regular stains, I'd say maybe a week, ten days.
There's a degree of variability because we are secondary to their hospital work load.
In other words, their in-house stuff that they've got to do, they'll do and that work load will vary, so that sometimes we can get them in two, three days; sometimes, it could be two weeks.
Serologic tests vary, also -- boy, I don't know. You know, in the majority of cases, I don't get all this stuff. I mean, there's no need for me to consider these when I look at the differentials, so I don't get these and I don't exactly have in my mind exactly how long it takes.
Q Could there have been a delay in getting back the results of the vitreous fluid because of the Christmas holidays, New year's holidays, things like that?
Q Okay. did you look for or try to test for the presence of Thorazine?
A We have a thing called a toxicology report, toxicology screen, and as a phenothiazine derivative, or i believe in that subgroup, that should have shown up on the toxicology report.
Q What did show up on the toxicology?
A Let me look here.
Benadryl in the urine and nothing in the blood.
Q Is there any explanation for Benadryl in the urine?
A I'd have to be a specialist on the metabolism of Benadryl. Benadryl is a -- frequently is an anti-allergic; anti -- anti-allergic kind of medication, predominantly, but I don't -- I don't know any particular reason why it would -- you know, why it would be there.
Q Okay. Do you know that, in sufficient quantities, Benadryl can help someone sleep?
A Yeah, if -- if you're -- as a function of why you're staying awake, you know.
A -- and you've got nothing under there in terms of the -- see, in terms of the blood.
Now if it's -- if it's not in the blood, it isn't going to be functioning within the body, if you see what I mean.
A It's sort of like the bladder is outside -- I mean, it's inside the body, but it's sort of outside the body; it's a container there sitting there just holding this stuff.
Q All right. Does your Protocol test for things like chlorhydrate?
A Boy, I think you'd have to ask -- you'd have to ask the toxicologist.
MS. CARLUCCI: Ken, give me a second.
MR. DANDAR: All right. back on the record.
Q Now, while you were at the medical examiner's office, until you left in May of '96, did you have access to any records kept by the Church of Scientology that concerned the care and treatment of Lisa McPherson before she went to the Columbia New Port Richey Hospital?
A I didn't -- you know, the file on Lisa McPherson was there -- okay? -and the file presumably contains everything that's present in a particular case. In other words, we make a file, you know, when we start off.
Q Right, but I'm not talking about the records that your office generates. I'm talking about did you ever become aware that there were records kept by the Church of Scientology from the moment of her -- left -- the moment she left Morton Plant Hospital until the moment she arrived at the Columbia New Port Richey Hospital about seventeen to eighteen days later.
Q Did you ever hear anyone talk about it?
A I think there was concern that -- not concern expressed by me, because I was busy doing all kinds of cases and I had other cases and so on and so forth, but I think that there was some concern about the fact that such records were not -- we hadn't seen any records.
Q -- because the other lung is just fine.
A Well, if the other lung is just fine. I mean -- but there can be a number of reasons why they might not die, yes.
It's not obligatory that you're going to die because you've got an embolus to your lung, unless it's a saddle embolus.
Q -- do you disagree with any of those diagnoses?
MS. CARLUCCI: If you have an opinion.
Q If you have an opinion.
A I didn't sign this report. I don't have an opinion.
Q Okay. If we change the word "severe" to "significant" dehydration, would that change your no-opinion status?
MS. CARLUCCI: If you have an opinion, Doctor.
MR. DANDAR: Let me rephrase it.
A About these final -- I wouldn't have included "abrasion of the nose." I mean, to me, that really doesn't add anything.
Q Well, could that abrasion of the nose and the bloody chin be evidence that she was struck by something or someone?
MS. CARLUCCI: -- do not speculate.
Q Assuming that the vitreous fluid readings are correct as well as you diagnosis of the Hippocratic facies, would Lisa McPherson be in a physical condition prior to her death to have been banging on the walls?
MR. WEINBERG: Objection to the form of the question.
MS. CARLUCCI: If you know.
Q Say within forty-eight hours of arriving at the Columbia New Port Richey Hospital.
MS. CARLUCCI: And if it's within your area of expertise.
THE WITNESS: Yeah. I -- I get uncomfortable with regard to time frames. MR. DANDAR: Okay.
MR. DANDAR: Okay, that's fine. All right.
Q You were asked on direct examination if the abrasions, contusions, hematomas, hemorrhaging that you noted in your record and as shown to you on these photographs were consistent with someone -- with Lisa McPherson flailing her arms and legs, hitting the walls, et cetera, and you said, yes, it could be.
My question is, could it also be consistent with someone striking her?
Q Do you know who the investigators were, in this case, that you reviewed their records and dictated the case history?
A I had the -- I had the -- I'm sure the information -- I feel badly that I don't recall the initials "DLC", number one; number two, the last note that is here is on the 6th and I think it's -- I think it's quite reasonable to think that there -- there were further notes, so I -- you know, I wish I could tell you. On the "DLC", you may have to -- well, anyway, that's it.
MS. CARLUCCI: Doctor, there's no question pending. THE WITNESS: I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Q My question is, why did you write that?
A Well, I'm, not quite sure -- I'm not quite sure of the time of death and my knowledge from where -- you know, I mean, I was in that area and I don't have a direct street knowledge -- in other words, I didn't really have anything -- in other words, I didn't really have anything -- I know roughly where the scientologists place is, I know roughly where Morton Plant is and I know roughly where New Port Richey is, and I -- and I guess I wrote that as a question, you know, what was the status, you know, of this individual during the time of the ride.
Q Why did you write in "Morton Plant"?
A Well, because that's a fairly large hospital; it's close to the scientology area.
Q So did you write that down because it didn't make sense to you why they would go all the way out to New Port Richey when Morton Plant is a few blocks away?
MR. WEINBERG: Objection as to the form.
THE WITNESS: It crossed my mind. I don't know MR. DANDAR: Okay.
Q I apologize if I asked you this before, but when you observed the body of Lisa McPherson, did she look septic?
MR. WEINBERG: You already asked that, Ken.
THE WITNESS: I don't know how you could tell if a person's septic or not.
MR. DANDAR: Can you tell if a person who is alive is septic as opposed to one who's dead?
A By virtue of symptoms and various different laboratory studies that we have, yes.
Q Okay. Did you -- do you have a specific recollection that you requested the New Port Richey Hospital records?
A No, I believe that I questioned and asked someone to follow up and get us those records if we could.
A And when i say "someone", I mean one of our investigators.
A I don't recall, you know, perhaps which one. I just -- I just didn't recall having seen them, which didn't mean that they weren't there; it just meant I didn't see them.
MR. WEINBERG: Why don't you mark them?
MR. DANDAR: That's fine. Go ahead.
MS. CARLUCCI: There's no question.
MR. WEINBERG: I mean, this is what you say are the New Port Richey Hospital -- I mean, you're not asking him to identify these, since he never saw them; right?
MR. DANDAR: Well, I'm just asking to see if maybe he has seen them. I just want to see if he recollects them or not.
MR. WEINBERG: Why don't we just put an exhibit tag on those?
MR. DANDAR: Sure, go ahead. Put it on there, Plaintiff's One. MR. WEINBERG: Okay.
MS. CARLUCCI: And you'll recall, the question simply is whether or not you recognize those or have seen them before.
MR. DANDAR: The first four pages, you can skip; that's a subpoena. There you go.
MR. WEINBERG: Is the question whether he saw these or not? Is that the question?
MR. DANDAR: That's the question pending.
A I do recall this lab stuff.
MR. WEINBERG: -- on the -- on the -- is this on the Staph aureus; is that what you're talking about?
THE WITNESS: Well, of course, maybe I was a little premature.
MS. CARLUCCI: -- service at District Six?
Q Okay. Do you recall the blood work -- I mean, the blood culture work prior to leaving District Six?
A I don't recall that, either. I do recall -- I do recall that that stuff -- as I remember, the stuff came to me over here with Minkoff's stuff.
Q Yeah, was that part of the big fax that came in? A Yeah. Yeah.
Q All right. Is the blood culture lab report at New Port Richey significant to you as a medical examiner in this case?
MS. CARLUCCI: -- I'm going to caution you -THE WITNESS: Yes.
MS. CARLUCCI: -- regarding giving any opinions on those medical records you've just been handed for two reasons; one, you have not had a chance to scrutinize them; two, you do not have any knowledge as to what transpired after you left the medical examiner's office and whether there's other peripheral information that may interact or contradict or in any way influence your reading of those medical records, so I caution you to speculate in any way.
MR. WEINBERG: And before you answer, if -- Ken, if you could like identify what -- in that package, what lab report you're asking him him is of any significance to him, because, I mean, it's a big package.
MR. DANDAR: Well, I believe there's only one or two pages -THE WITNESS: There's three pages.
THE WITNESS: Two -- a preliminary culture, a final culture and then there's a sensitivity page.
MR. WEINBERG: Is that what you're asking him? All three of those?
MR. DANDAR: Right, all three.
THE WITNESS: Okay, I don't recall seeing any sensitivities. That's your page three of this.
THE WITNESS: Relative to the others, I believe what I saw was the one that gave Staph aureus as what finally grew out.
A Well, I'm not sure if this was the -- if the individual necessarily was -- let me glance at this again.
Q The first page of the ER?
A Yeah. I'm just -- I'm not sure what her status was on arrival at the hospital.
Q Is that because there's significant information missing from that report?
MR. WEINBERG: I object to the form, as well.
A Understand what I'm saying?
Q You can't answer the question because you haven't reviewed the whole thing?
you like to know the temperature of the victim upon arrival at the hospital?
I -- I don't come down to a point of minutes in terms of times of death.
MS. CARLUCCI: Is the temperature significant?
THE WITNESS: -- unless, say, there's an observed homicide; I shoot him or something.
at the time of death, or prior to the time of death, be significant, yes or no.
Q Okay. What about blood gasses?
A Again, they could be.
MR. DANDAR: All right, let's go ahead and switch tapes.

This week in Montserrat, we had the rare opportunity of bringing mountain chicken awareness to Westminster. The newly appointed Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, James Duddridge MP, visited Montserrat on his tour of the Caribbean UK Overseas Territories. We were very pleased to hear that the Minister had expressed an interest in the mountain chicken and were delighted when we were invited to give a talk to the Minister and other distinguished guests about the mountain chicken and the work we do to save this Critically Endangered frog here in Montserrat.
The call came last week and we were invited to a briefing at the Governor's Office. We were told that the Minister is aware of the chytrid crisis affecting the mountain chicken frogs here in Montserrat and in Dominica, the only other place in the world where these giant frogs exist in the wild. The Minister wanted to learn more about the work Durrell and the Department of Environment here in Montserrat, together with ZSL and Chester Zoo in the UK, have carried out over the years to help save the mountain chicken from extinction. What we wanted to communicate was the importance of continuing the research and monitoring work we do, and ensuring that the long-term recovery plan for the mountain chicken receives the support and financial backing it needs. This was the perfect opportunity to win the highest level backing for our project!
The day of the Minister's visit started with the helicopter carrying our important visitors flying in from Antigua and circling the active volcano in the South Soufriere hills. As Montserrat is a small island, we caught glimpses of the Ministerial delegation as the convoy passed on the road, accompanied by a police car with lights flashing and sirens on. The Minister was on a tight schedule and we had been asked to be ready and in waiting to give our presentation and show the short film ZSL has produced on the latest release of mountain chickens here in Montserrat (See video here). As we waited at the Governor's Office, the importance of this visit was slowly dawning on us… but there was no time to get nervous as we soon heard the approach of the sirens and the Minister appeared through the doors.
Brief introductions were carried out – other guests included His Excellency Adrian Davis the Governor of Montserrat, the Honourable Deputy Governor Alric 'Jim' Taylor, and the Honourable Claude Hogan, Minister for Agriculture, Lands, Trade, Housing and the Environment of Montserrat. A very distinguished audience indeed! Our presentation focussed on the Darwin Initiative project 'Enabling Montserrat to Save the Critically Endangered Mountain Chicken' which was led by Durrell to trial pioneering conservation management techniques and conduct important research on chytrid fungus that is causing declines in amphibians worldwide. After the presentation, it was time for questions – funding of conservation programmes was recognised as one of the challenges we face. The UK Minister showed great interest in the work and the chytrid crisis affecting the mountain chicken and amphibians worldwide.
We were very pleased to have this opportunity to raise awareness about chytrid fungus and our work with the mountain chicken frog, and hope the Minister will have the opportunity to spread the message among his colleagues at Westminster. But after all the excitement of this State Visit, it was a relief to be back in the forest that evening, looking for the real star of the show – the ever-charismatic mountain chicken frog!

did in the previous two pregnancies!" — proudly said Kate.

Q: How to get rid of a list's column headers? I have a link list and would like to get rid of the column headers. How can I do this?
The reason I would like to do this is because I am grouping links based on a category, and it looks weird with the column above it.

A: Just used css. Added a content editor, hid it, and added this to the html source:
<style>
.ms-viewheadertr {
  display: none;
}
</style>

A: One way to do this is to generate a view of your Links list as a Data View Web Part in SharePoint Designer, and hide the column headers by removing the XSLT for the headers in Code View.

A: This above CSS script hides headers for all the listview webparts on the Page. How can we modify this to hide the header only for a particular listview?

A: How about hiding the group by column names.  I had a script for this in 2007 but it doesn't work in 2010.

A:
This above CSS script hides headers for all the listview webparts on the Page. How can we modify this to hide the header only for a particular listview?

Same as accepted answer, except specify the id of the particular webpart. This is easily found by inspecting page source and searching for the web part's id. It'll look something like WebPartWPQ#, where # is a number.
So, use the snippet below. Make sure to replace 0 with the web part's ID.
<style>

  display: none;

Many African national teams had lined up friendly matches to prepare for the opening matches of the 2012 AFCON qualifiers due to commence in September this year. Below are the results of the major matches.
On Wednesday night, new Bafana Bafana coach Pitso Mosimane had a perfect opportunity to silence his critics at home and prove to all and sundry that he has a strategy to see Bafana scale new heights under his reign. Jingles did not disappoint on the night, and came up with an attacking strategy which saw Ghana play second fiddle for almost 80% of the match.
Bafana dominated the midfield with the quartet of Thandiyise Khuboni, Macbeth Sibaya, Steven Pienaar and Siphiwe Tshabalala playing a game of their lives. The Black stars midfield which lacked the gritty of Sulley Muntari and the vision of Kevin Prince Boateng, but still had the industry and skills of world cup stars such as Andre 'Dede' Ayew, Kwadoh Asamoah and Annan, played a subdued game, until late in the second half.
It was from midfield dominance that Bafana launched numerous raids on the Ghanaian goal, and on three such occasions, Kingson came to the rescue of the Black stars in the first half. There was nothing that Kingson could do however, to Katlego Mphela's response to a sublime piece of brilliance from midfield maestro Pienaar's pass in the 42nd minute which Mphela cooly slotted past a desperately diving Kingson. That was the only goal of the match, which game Mosimane a perfect start to his reign as Bafana coach.
Mali suffered a demoralising 0-2 loss at the hands of Guinea in Marignane, France. The Syli National, coached by Frenchman Michel Dussuyer scored goals through Kamil Zayatte of Hull City and Bundesliga 2 based Ibrahima Traor� of FC Augsburg. Mali's star-studded outfit needs a quick response to their fusion problems. The team struggled at the 2010 Nations Cup in Angola and failed to qualify for the World Cup inspite of the presence of stars such as the Spain-based trio of Mahamadou Diarra (Real Madrid), Seydou Keita (Barcelona) and Frederick Kanoute (Sevilla). Mali are in the AFCON qualifying Group A with Zimbabwe, Cape Verde and Liberia.
Games between neighbours normally end in stalemate because teams are usually very familiar with each other's type of play, strengths and weaknesses. This almost happened between the two West-African neighbours, but Senegal, despite boasting many stars in their team, could only afford a slim victory against their neighbours. Manchester United's new signing Mame Birame Diouf scored the only goal of the match from a well taken corner by Ndiaye D�me Ndiaye in the 46th minute of the game.
Kolo Toure headed a second half winner over Italy in the friendly match which was played in London, England on the 10th August. The Elephants are without a subtantive coach following the resignation of Sven Eriksson following contractual negotiations breakdown. The Ivory Coast Football Federation has also failed in its bid to lure former Elephants Assistant coach Gerard Gilli. The two parties have not agreed on the technical team set-up for the national team. Gilli reportedly preferred to bring his own coaching staff, while the FIF insisted on having local coaches forming the rest of the technical staff. Why the two parties failed to even reach a compromise on the matter is difficult to understand. The FIF could retain the caretaker coach Francois Zahoui as an assistant to Gilli, while the Frenchman could bring one or two of his own assistants.
Hosts and defending African champions Egypt played to a nine goal thriller with DR Congo on Wednesday night. The hosts scored goals through double scorer Ahmed Ali of Ismaily, Ahmed Fathy, Mohammed Aboutrika and captain Ahmed Hassan. DR Congo scored through a Zola Matoumona double, and a goal from Diba Ilunga.


At least four individuals are being detained by the Bulgarian General Directorate Combating Organized Crime (GDCOC) cybercrime unit for hacking slot machines. These individuals defrauded many land-based casinos using a 'sophisticated scheme.' At the moment, it's unclear how much they stole during their scheme. However, they will be charged through a judicial process.
The cybercrime unit of the GDCOC carried out an operation that uncovered the scam. This scam used specialised devices to hack the machines remotely. One of the four individuals would simulate playing the slot while the others accessed the machine. At least one of the arrested persons was responsible for the devices manipulating the gaming machines.
Details of the operation are unclear, but it has been confirmed that the four people arrested were caught shortly after defrauding another casino. As a result, the GDCOC confiscated a 'large amount of money' as well as the devices. According to reports, the group had hacked slot machines at various gaming halls and land-based casinos.
This is not the first scam of its kind, but it is worrying for land-based casinos that use similar machines. Another infamous scam was carried out in the United States at Roulette tables in 2012. At least 50 people took part by stealing chips from low stakes tables and transferring them to higher stake tables. Luckily, it was uncovered in Ohio, but the full amount that they stole has never been discovered.
As mentioned above, the four individuals will be 'forwarded to judicial institutions' to be tried under Bulgarian laws. On the flip side of the coin, a casino in Australia has been accused of tampering with slot machines. An investigation of the Crown Melbourne found that the casino had been removing buttons from their gaming machines. A court case has been opened against Crown Resorts, and the trial is set to begin soon. This will last for three weeks, and might result in a suspension of their gaming license or sanctions against them.


Can you imagine the outrage if a Republican president used the Department of Justice to spy on political rivals during a major U.S. election? Complete with surveillance of campaign associates and spies embedded within a presidential campaign — all based on what is at best highly questionable — if not utterly fabricated — evidence?
Heads would explode. The reliably anti-Trump — and anti-Republican — media would be screaming, "This is bigger than Watergate!" And they would be right. Someone should pay for this assault on our democracy.
Because that's exactly what Hillary Clinton's cabal and her Deep State allies within the Obama administration did to Donald Trump's campaign, The New York Times confirmed yesterday.
"The F.B.I. investigated four unidentified Trump campaign aides in those early months, congressional investigators revealed in February. The four men were Michael T. Flynn, Paul Manafort, Carter Page and Mr. Papadopoulos, current and former officials said. The F.B.I. obtained phone records and other documents using national security letters — a secret type of subpoena — officials said. And at least one government informant met several times with Mr. Page and Mr. Papadopoulos, current and former officials said," the newspaper reported.
The DOJ's justification to violate Americans' rights, ruin careers and lives?
So Barack Obama's FBI goes after Trump over allegations someone in his orbit may have spoken to some Russians at some point in their lives. Never mind that Hillary Clinton and the DNC paid Russian informants and a foreign ex-spy Christopher Steele millions — laundered through its law firm Perkins Coie and slimy Fusion GPS — to derail her political opponent. When you're a Clinton or an elite, the rules don't apply.
Attorney General Jeff Sessions and FBI Director Christopher Wray must hold all lawbreakers accountable or resign immediately. If they turn a blind eye and give criminal elites a pass, voters should demand Congress file articles of impeachment forcing their removal.
Americans shouldn't accept a corrupt justice system that abuses its power to target political opponents.
It's Sessions' and Wray's jobs to restore trust in the system.

Q: How do I get Synapse to search my Tomboy notes? In this bug report https://bugs.launchpad.net/synapse-project/+bug/683550 it says
"Tomboy has a dataprovider for Zeitgeist, so if you have that Tomboy notes should be easily searchable using Synapse"
I've got the Zeitgeist PPA from here: https://launchpad.net/~zeitgeist/+archive/ppa?field.series_filter=maverick. I installed the package zeitgeist-datasource-tomboy, but still cannot get tomboy notes in Synapse's search results. How do I get it to work?

A: I am the person who developed zeitgeist-datasource-tomboy. Due to tomboy note format you can only search by the title of the Note and not by the contents.
This is a limitation because for that the whole content of the note has to be stored as an event. (Actually it can be, but doesn't make much sense to fill the database with content already present in Notes)
Try searching by Note Title, if it doesn't work then I can look further.

If you have not enabled this plugin, then please goto Tomboy preferences, and check Zeitgeist Dataprovider

A: Here is a complete how-to (works in Oneiric):

*

*Open a terminal and write:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:zeitgeist/ppa
