Celestial flybys set to thrill
Posted on 7 January 2013 by Jay Tate
Astronomers are gearing for thrills this year when Earth gets buzzed by two rogue asteroids and two comets, including a wanderer last seen by the forerunners of mankind, blaze across the sky.
Next week, the guardians who scour the heavens for dangerous space rocks will be closely tracking an asteroid called 99942 Apophis.
Named after the god of evil and darkness in Egyptian mythology, Apophis measures around 270 metres (877 feet) across, a mass able to deliver more energy than 25,000 Hiroshima bombs if it ever smashed into Earth.
Apophis sparked some heart-stopping moments when it was first detected in 2004.
Early calculations suggested a 2.7-percent probability of a collision in 2029, the highest ever seen for an asteroid, but the risk was swiftly downgraded after more observations.
Even so, for April 13, 2036, "there is still a tiny chance of an impact," says NASA's fabled Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), which puts the risk at about one in 250,000.
One of the big unknowns is the Yarkovsky effect, a phenomenon discovered by a Russian engineer at the start of the 20th century.
A slowly rotating body that orbits close to the Sun experiences heating on one side of its body that then cools at "night" as it turns over.
This alternate heating and cooling can cause a tiny momentum, depending on the body's spin and amount of area that warms.
The question is whether, over time, the Yarkovsky effect is accelerating Apophis, thus skewing estimates for future approaches.
Seeking clues, NASA's deep-space radars at Goldstone, in California's Mojave desert, and at Arecibo in Puerto Rico will be scanning Apophis, which on January 9 will pass by at some 14.5 million kilometres (nine million miles).
"Using new measurements of the asteroid's distance and line-of-sight velocity, we hope to reduce the orbital uncertainties and extend the interval over which we can compute the motion into the future," JPL's Lance Benner said in an email.
"It's possible that the new measurements improve the orbit to the point that we can completely rule out an impact."
On February 15, a 57-metre (185-feet) asteroid, 2012 DA14, will skim the planet at just 34,500 kilometres (21,600 miles). In other words, it will spookily fly by inside the orbit of geostationary satellites.
"It's going to be the closest predicted flyby of an asteroid," says Mark Bailey, director of the Armagh Observatory in Northern Ireland.
"Because it is coming so close, even amateur astronomers will be able to watch it as it moves against background stars, and it may be visible through binoculars."
— Return of the long-distance runner —
Comets — seen by the superstitious as harbingers of great events — could make 2013 a memorable year, astronomers hope.
Lonely travellers of the cosmos, comets comprise giant clumps of primeval ice and dust, formed in the infancy of the Solar System, which loop around the Sun at intervals that can vary from years to aeons.
As they get closer to our star, solar heat warms the comet's surface, causing it to spew out gases and shed a dusty trail which becomes reflected as a "tail" in the Sun's rays.
First up is Comet 2011 L4 (PANSTARRS), whose name comes from the telescope at the University of Hawaii which spotted it in 2011.
PANSTARRS could be at its brightest from March 8 to 12, according to US specialist Gary Kronk (http://cometography.com/current_comets.html).
The biggest excitement is being reserved for Comet ISON, named after the International Scientific Optical Network, whose telescope was used by Russian astronomers Vitaly Nevski and Artyom Novichonok to make the find last September.
Right now, it is unclear how bright ISON will be, but by some calculations it could become visible to the naked eye by late November and maybe linger brilliantly for months, becoming a once-a-century event.
ISON is an extraordinary beast, for it last returned to Earth 10 million years ago, or more, says Bailey.
"It's a 'new comet', which comes from a region of the Solar System that's called the Oort Cloud, an extensive system that extends from around a thousand times the distance of the Earth to the Sun to around 100,000-200,000 times this distance," Bailey says.
"If you imagine a model of the Solar System whereby the Sun's a football in the centre of a football pitch and the Earth is on the perimeter, then this comet has come effectively from Australia. That's the scale of things."

Home Broadcast News FCC incentive auction earns a round of reviews
FCC incentive auction earns a round of reviews
The incentive auction NPRM drew a handful of comments from various denizens of Washington DC. Here's what people were saying:
* Jay Rockefeller (D-WV), Chairman, Senate Commerce Committee: Today's action by the FCC moves us yet another step closer to creating a truly nationwide, interoperable public safety broadband network for our first responders," said Rockefeller. "When we authorized voluntary incentive auctions to fund the public safety network earlier this year, Congress recognized the dual benefit of promoting innovative spectrum policy and providing funding for next-generation public safety communications. I know that developing the rules for the incentive auctions will be a complex process, but I am optimistic that broadcasters, wireless companies, and others will work cooperatively with the FCC to make sure these auctions are successful.
* Henry Waxman (D-CA), Ranking Member, House Energy and Commerce Committee: I applaud the FCC's unanimous approval of the Incentive Auction Notice of Proposed Rulemaking. This is an important milestone towards implementing the bipartisan Public Safety and Spectrum legislation passed by Congress earlier this year. That landmark legislation gave the FCC new authority to repurpose underutilized spectrum to help meet the nation's growing demand for mobile broadband and fund the creation of a nationwide, interoperable broadband network for first responders. In particular, Congress recognized the value of unlicensed spectrum to promote innovation and economic growth and gave the FCC the authority to utilize nationwide guard bands for this purpose. "I am pleased that the FCC's action today is faithful to Congressional intent and aims to promote unlicensed use as well as the innovation that will surely follow. I commend Chairman Genachowski and the FCC staff for their tireless work on this highly complex and critical matter.
* Anna Eshoo (D-CA), Ranking Member, House Communications Subcommittee: The FCC's adoption of a proposed rulemaking to implement a voluntary incentive spectrum auction begins the process of fulfilling Congress's vision for fast, ubiquitous broadband to all Americans. The proposal recognizes the need for a competitive wireless landscape and the importance of a nationwide block of spectrum dedicated to unlicensed innovation. The Commission's action today lays the foundation for a 21st century spectrum policy that will drive American innovation, create new jobs and increase consumer choice.
* Minority Media and Telecommunications Council: Spectrum has become essential to nearly every element of the nation's economy. Universal nationwide wired and wireless broadband networks would be America's greatest generators of jobs and entrepreneurial opportunity in a generation. Demand for commercial wireless spectrum is increasing so rapidly that it soon will overtake the supply. That phenomenon, "spectrum exhaust," would be especially detrimental to minorities, who have led the nation in the rate at which they have adopted mobile wireless and its applications to job search, health care, education and civic engagement. In all of American history, wireless is the first technology for which minority consumers have a head start – an encouraging high tech and civil rights development that MMTC has named the "Minority Wireless Miracle." There is no time to lose. To ensure that consumers can enjoy the use of new wireless spectrum as rapidly as possible, MMTC strongly encourages the FCC to expedite the rulemaking process so that the auctions can conclude by December 2013.
* Julie Kearney, CEA: Additional spectrum is not only key to our national competitiveness, but also needed for creating jobs and spurring economic growth. The FCC's adoption of this critical spectrum item is a great step forward toward unleashing countless innovative products and services that rely on our nation's valuable spectrum resources. We look forward to reviewing the FCC's NPRM and helping the FCC craft rules that will ensure that consumers are able to use their smartphones and tablets to their fullest capabilities.

Last weekend, after much hard work and with much excitement, Kaden crossed over to Boy Scouts, with Adam guiding him and assisting him during the ceremony, just as Ian had done for him two years earlier.
I did cry, just a little, as I tend to do when I'm bursting with pride and joy for my kiddos.
The Crossover Ceremony has held in conjunction with our annual Blue and Gold celebration, where Kaden also earned his Arrow of Light, and what a fantastic day it was. I wish I had pictures to share, but once this part of the ceremony was over the camera was put away - too much socializing and playing to do. The day was a perfect send-off for the boys and their families leaving our beloved pack for Boy Scouts.
What a wonderful moment! So funny, my daughter just started Girl Guides (Sparks) this week... and that was my moment!

Q: Eta conversion tactics? Is there a tactic which I can use instead of replace in the example below to simplify this expression?
Require Import Vector.

Goal forall (n b:nat) (x:t nat n), (map (fun a => plus b a) x) = x.
Proof.
  intros n b x.
  replace (fun a => plus b a) with (plus b) by auto.
  ...

A: You are probably looking for something along the following lines:
repeat change (fun x => ?h x) with h.

which allows you to eta-reduce functions of arbitrary arity. This solution uses change's ability to work with patterns (?h in the above piece of code).
Let's give this tactic a more suggestive name like so:
(* h is a dummy argument to make Coq happy, it gets shadowed with `?h` *)
Ltac eta_reduce_all_private h := repeat change (fun x => ?h x) with h.

Ltac eta_reduce_all := eta_reduce_all_private idtac.

If we try to define eta_reduce_all as follows
Ltac eta_reduce_all := repeat change (fun x => ?h x) with h.

Coq will complain about "unbounded" h.

An advisory board is a body that advises the management of a corporation, organization, or foundation. Unlike the Board of Directors the advisory board does not have authority to vote on corporate matters, nor a legal fiduciary responsibility. Many new or small businesses choose to have advisory boards in order to benefit from the knowledge of others, without the expense or formality of the Board of Directors.

Like many parents, my reading time is at a premium, sandwiched somewhere between making a living and making a life. For this reason, I've been drawn to short story anthologies and audiobooks. Short stories are perfect for me because, even when I don't have much time to read, I can usually get a whole story in. Audiobooks are wonderful, too, in that I can read while doing other things like cooking dinner, driving to pick up the teenager, or walking the dog.
Listening to an audiobook is not the same experience as reading a paper book or reading on my Kindle, but it allows me to have more stories in my life than I could find time for otherwise. A well-produced audiobook with a great narrator can deepen a reading experience and make the words on the page that much more affecting.
So, I was really excited to find the Apocalypse Triptych on Audible. It's an ambitious project: a set of three anthologies edited by anthology king John Joseph Adams and indie-publishing star Hugh Howey. The idea is that each anthology can stand alone, but that if you read all three, several of the stories bridge the set and become one more extended story. The first and best collection, The End is Nigh, features stories set just before an impending apocalypse; the second, The End is Now, stories that take place during the apocalypse; and the third, The End Has Come, stories about what happens after the apocalypse.
There's a good variety of apocalypse across the triptych. We've got widespread devastation due to illness, alien invasion, zombies, a comet, environmental degradation, genetically modified foods, A.I., and many more. The sheer variety in the way these authors ended the world was amazing, as was the diversity of setting and voice.
When it worked, it worked beautifully. My favorite story set, hands down, was the one by Seanan McGuire: Spores, Fruiting Bodies, and Resistance. Without giving too much away, I'll say it's a tale of love, loss, and redemption featuring a lesbian with OCD. McGuire wrote this woman so empathetically that it broke my heart. On a lighter note, I also loved Scott Sigler's Deer Camp stories. I haven't read many science fiction stories featuring Yupers, maybe not any besides these, and the originality of that voice and world view was fascinating.
Even when it worked less well, it was still good. The set of stories by Tananarive Due were magnificent. The first two were read by Laurice White, and I was mesmerized by the slow, soft voice she read in. It was startling when the third installment was read by someone else. Even though that narrator did a fine job, it felt jarring to have the story read so differently.
As is often the case with works in multiple parts, the project did seem to lose some steam as it moved forward. While I would still recommend the entire series, the second book is not as good as the first as a whole, and the third is not as good as the second. The whole collection lost momentum when not every story continued and new stories that are only one-shots filled in. Though many of those one-shot stories are still excellent stories individually, they broke the flow for me by not playing across all three books.
In short, if you like speculative fiction, in particular apocalyptic fiction, you will love this collection, and, if you're an audiobook fan, this is an especially well-produced set.

"An Organ of the Irish Race on the Continent": The Pilot, Irish Immigration, and Irish-American Identity, 1851-66
KATIGUMUS_ku_0099D_16060_DATA_1.pdf (1.222Mb)
KATI GUMUS, GAMZE
This dissertation analyzes the history of the Pilot, an ethnic newspaper for the Irish Catholic, and its fictional and non-fictional printed material from the period between 1851 and 1866. The Great Famine (1845-1851) and the Civil War (1861-1865) act as milestones for this study, as its aim is to understand the evolution of the Famine immigrant into a naturalized citizen fighting in the ranks of the Union. The Pilot assumed a prominent place within the immigrant guidance tradition of the mid-nineteenth century as it aimed to construct Irish-American citizens out of immigrants. The transformation of the Irish immigrant into an Irish-American citizen mirrors the simultaneous transformation of the Pilot from an immigrant newspaper into an ethnic newspaper, and highlights the value of the Pilot as an institution working to elevate the standards and representation of the Irish race in the States. In order to break down the transformation of the immigrant, this study focuses on three questions in relation to the immigrant's identity: how to be an ideal immigrant on the way to assimilation and naturalization; how to be an ideal laborer elevating the representation of the Irish race as a whole; finally, how to be an ideal Irish-American citizen proving the national belonging of the Irish to the Union. In an attempt to answer these questions and understand how the Irish acquired their white identity and racially charged discourse through print culture, this study derives greatly from whiteness studies, and examines the Pilot in order to understand how it situates the black man as the nemesis of the Irish. This dissertation examines the guidance offered by the Pilot to Irish immigrants on their way to becoming ideal immigrants, an ideal labor force, and ideal citizens; and it studies the paper's role as the platform of an imagined community for Irish-Americans where they could come together under shared values of Catholicism, Irishness, Americanness, and whiteness.

A marketing strategy may involve several interrelated components, such as market selection, pricing, distribution and promotion. Efficient use of these components may help you maintain or increase your sales. Getting potential clients may require advertising through several different channels, which can be costly for a small business. You can devise several marketing strategies to stand out from the competition and achieve your objectives under budget.
Communication is an essential element of any strategy. It is necessary in order to create awareness about your products among potential customers, and it may include distributing informational brochures or print and broadcast media advertising. The idea is to spark interest in your modular furniture by explaining its features and benefits and to answer any questions consumers may have about your products. Depending on your marketing budget, you may place ads that display your work and provide your contact information in local or national newspapers, as well as on radio and television. You may also host in-store events for which your staff create various arrangements with the furniture to give customers a chance to examine your products.
One type of marketing strategy is to offer incentives. If you own the store where you sell your modular furniture, consider providing discounts or other incentives, like free delivery, extended warranties or cash back as part of a loyalty program for repeat customers, those who order in bulk or those who regularly refer others to your business. If your business relies on other retailers to sell your products, ask them to display your furniture for a percentage of the sale proceeds. This way you get to showcase your goods without an upfront payment.
Target marketing consists of identifying the group of customers most likely to use your merchandise. Gather as much information as possible about your customer base. Depending on your location, you may opt to focus your marketing efforts on specific establishments, such as offices, hotels, schools and colleges, all of which have potential to buy in bulk. Have your sales team visit these prospective customers to offer demonstrations on the suitability of your products.
Leverage the power of the Internet by developing a website geared especially toward people who want to save time and shop outside of store hours. Upload pictures of the furniture as displayed to show various configurations and supply information related to each piece of furniture, such as materials, price and special discounts. Include a shopping cart system on your website for ease of purchase by your customers. In addition, you may consider creating pages on social networks to promote your products.

South Africa's president booed as world leaders bid farewell to Mugabe
President Cyril Ramaphosa booed at Mugabe's funeral in Harare over xenophobic attacks on foreign nationals living in South Africa as world leaders pay tribute to the founding father of Zimbabwe.
World leaders gathered in Harare, capital of Zimbabwe, on Saturday for the funeral of the country's former president, Robert Gabriel Mugabe. Among the statesmen and women who attended the event were Presidents Uhuru Kenyatta of Kenya, Teodoro Obiang Nguema (Equatorial Guinea), Cyril Ramaphosa (South Africa), Peter Mutharika (Malawi), Sahle-Work Zewde (Ethiopia), Hage Geingob (Namibia), President Filipe Nyusi (Mozambique), João Lourenço (Angola) and Edgar Lungu (Zambia). Nigeria was represented by its vice president, Yemi Osinbajo.

In his opening address, President Emmerson Dambudzo Mnagagwa thanked Mugabe for his contributions to the liberation of Africa from colonial rule and called on Western nations to honour the former president by removing the harsh sanctions imposed on his country. "Our arms are stretched out for genuine friendship," he said. He reiterated that the country's land reform program, a legacy of Mugabe and for which harsh economic sanctions were imposed on the country by the West, would never be reversed and that the challenge now was how to make Zimbabwe's agriculture to be productive.

Tributes were also paid to Mugabe by African leaders. The unpleasant incident of the event, attended by thousands of Zimbabweans, occurred when President Cyril Ramaphosa was called to deliver his speech. The South African leader was jeered and whistled at, making him to make a detour from his prepared speech to apologise for the xenophobic attacks against foreign African nationals living in the country. He said his government was working hard to encourage social cohesion, and to ensure South Africans learnt to embrace foreigners.
Representatives of Russia and China, among others, also spoke at the event. The Russian envoy described former President Mugabe as an icon of Africa's liberation while his Chinese counterpart said his people had been deprived of an old and good friend. He said China cherished its relationship with Zimbabwe and stood committed to assist the country.

The state funeral, attended by thousands of Zimbabweans in Harare's National Stadium, was also graced by former African leaders, such as Olusegun Obasanjo of Nigeria, John Rawlings (Ghana), Joaquim Chissano (Mozambique), Kenneth Kaunda (Zambia), Joseph Kabila (DRC), Sam Nujoma and Hifikepunye Pohamba (Namibia), Rupiya Banda (Zambia), Festus Mogae (Botswana) and Thabo Mbeki (South Africa).

The Cook retort
ALASTAIR COOK'S fifth successive Test half-century helped England overcome the loss of Andrew Strauss for a second-ball duck and move towards safety against Sri Lanka at Lord's.
Strauss fell lbw on the back foot to Chanaka Welegedara for the second time in this second npower Test, having made only four in two attempts, before England recovered to reach 149 for two by stumps on day four.
They had banked a lead of only seven runs after Steven Finn finished with four wickets and took his Test career tally to 50 – the youngest Englishman to reach that landmark – in Sri Lanka's 479 all out.
The match therefore appeared to come down to a straight second-innings shoot-out.
But despite England's immediate setback, Cook (61no) and Jonathan Trott (58) settled nerves sufficiently to make a stalemate by far the likeliest outcome tomorrow in this three-match series which England currently lead 1-0.
England's player of the year Trott and his fellow Ashes run machine Cook were the ideal men to stave off more trouble, after the hosts stumbled to 22 for three in their first innings.
So it proved too, in a century stand which calmly restored the premise that there was not enough firepower in this Sri Lanka attack to open up a shot at a surprise victory.
Instead, it seemed, Strauss would have the luxury of deciding whether or not to push seriously for a win today.
One of precious few false shots from England's second-wicket pair brought Trott four runs, edged through a vacant third slip off Dilhara Fernando, to take him to within one run of his 66-ball half-century.
Cook followed him to 50, from 86 balls. But by then Kevin Pietersen's long sentence to wait with his pads on was over. Trott yorked himself in Rangana Herath's first over, leaving Pietersen to block his first two balls against his nemesis left-arm spin.
The applause of a small crowd might have been read as supportive or ironic. But either way, Pietersen could be in no doubt he had a point to prove – and he took a small step towards doing so by closing out the last hour with Cook.
England's pace bowlers, the object of much criticism for their faulty lines over the past two days, had earlier improved significantly. They still did not get it right all the time but tested the Sri Lankans sufficiently for fair reward.
Finn (four for 108) began inauspiciously, spearing his very first delivery of the day in a previously unfinished over from the pavilion end down the leg side.
But he corrected his line well enough to have Mahela Jayawardene edging an awkward ball on the back-foot defence to third slip, where Cook – who had dropped Tharanga Paranavitana in the cordon two days ago – this time clung on.
Jayawardene was gone one run short of his 50, and two balls later Chris Tremlett struck at the other end when Thilan Samaraweera edged some full-length outswing behind.
Stuart Broad was held back until the 14th over of the day. But after conceding a four from his first ball, Prasanna Jayawardene edging an attempted pull over the heads of the slips to bring up 100 runs against the first of three bowlers' names, Broad struck with one that jagged down the hill to have Farveez Maharoof lbw.
Sri Lanka appeared in danger after all of conceding a significant first-innings lead – but not so after a counter-attacking stand of 57 between Herath and Jayawardene.
Each batsmen slog-swept Graeme Swann for a six until the off-spinner got his revenge on the left-hander – up the wicket and stumped when he did not get to the pitch of one that turned.
Jayawardene had been timing the ball especially well. But once he fell to a very good catch by Swann, diving low to his left at second slip to give Finn his milestone in only his 12th Test, virtual parity was assured and duly confirmed as the last four wickets fell for 13 runs.


Making coffee creamer at home is affordable AND delicious! Irish Cream Coffee Creamer is one of my favorites.
I've got a serious coffee addiction. And making coffee creamer at home is one way for me to save money. Plus, I like to know what's in my creamer. Irish Cream coffee creamer is delicious. It's chocolate and almond with hints of espresso. Add that to your steaming cup of coffee and you've got yourself a perfect cup of joe! When I think of St.Patrick's Day, Irish Cream always comes to mind. In college, I worked at Bennigan's (which is an Irish restaurant chain—Americanized, haha). St.Patrick's Day was a fun time to be working there. Some places deck out their restaurants for Christmas, we decked out for St. Patty's Day. And I think we sold more Irish Cream Coffees in two weeks than we did all year!
Using Irish Cream coffee creamer (non alcoholic of course) in my coffee brings me back to some of those fun times! I met my husband while we worked together there…so of course those are great memories! I used my favorite French Vanilla Coffee Creamer recipe as a base in creating today's recipe. One thing you will notice is that I took a cup of the milk and heated it on the saucepan with the cocoa powder and the espresso powder. THIS IS IMPORTANT! By heating and whisking these ingredients together, you won't be left with any gritty texture. I used this technique when making the Pumpkin Spice Coffee Creamer too. So, grab some ingredients and make yourself your homemade creamer with your coffee. It will be hard to ever buy store bought again!
In a small saucepan, whisk together 1 cup of the milk with cocoa powder and espresso powder over low heat. Whisk until smooth and no granules remain. Remove from heat.
Combine mixture with remaining milk, condensed milk and extracts in a large mason jar.
Shake vigorously until combined. Store in refrigerator, shake before each use.
You can substitute fat free condensed milk and use fat free (skim) milk to make this a Fat Free coffee creamer.
I use the "sell by" date on my milk as my expiration date for this creamer.
Substitute heavy cream for the milk to create an ultra creamy version. Use within 7 days.
No Bake Chocolate ESPRESSO cookies.
Looks delicious! I love Irish Cream coffee creamer.. which is evident by my post today 🙂 I've never used that espresso powder I may have to check it out.
Is there a way to make these sugar free? I want to share with some employees of my apartment bldg., and they use sugar free.. Ones hypoglycemic.. I'm diabetic, but I want the real stuff! And I am hooked!! Thanks loads!!
I've never tried making sugar free creamer. Sorry!
I could of SO used this last week when I was making my waffles! Yum!!
Such a great recipe Aimee!! I need to start making my own coffee creamer. I swear, it's so expensive!
This recipe is so smart! Seriously so genius! Now I need to get up and have coffee!
Thanks so much Jocelyn!! ENjoy your coffee.
Working at a British pub Paddy's is a nuts day for us!! I bet you had some fun times at your Irish restaurant. Is it bad I want this and alcoholic irish cream in my coffee!! LOL Maybe I should just drink irish cream on the rocks!
I love that you can make your own coffee creamer at home – that is my totally my favorite part so this is simply genius Aimee! Pinning!
Aimee – do you have to heat this? You say to mix it in a small saucepan, but do not say to heat? Just want to make sure I do the fix step correctly. Thanks!
Whoops, just fixed the directions. Yes, heat on low, whisking until smooth.
So when you say espresso powder, is that the same stuff you use to make espresso (finely ground coffee) or something more like instant coffee?

Mustangs coach banking on balance in first-place showdown
Phillip Gardner
If East Lincoln quarterback Chazz Surratt has improved in one area over the course of the season, it's in his ability to spread the ball around, coach Mike Byus said.
That ability might come into play as the Mustangs host Maiden on Friday in a Southern District 7 2A Athletic Conference first-place battle that's drawing statewide attention.
"Do I think they'll try to do something to take Chazz away? Sure," Byus said. "But we're pretty balanced. I feel like if you put an extra person assigned to the quarterback, then somebody's left open to where they can make a play."
Maiden (9-0, 5-0) effectively shut down West Lincoln quarterback Miguel Corella last week, holding Corella to a season-low 20 yards — 96 below his average at the time. But the Blue Devils might find it a bigger challenge to slow down the athletic and elusive Surratt, the SD7's top rusher and second-leading passer.
Just ask Bandys. Surratt accounted for seven touchdowns (five rushing, two passing) and 447 yards that night.
Or ask West Caldwell. He passed for five touchdowns and rushed for two against the Warriors last week.
No conference opponent — or any opponent for that matter — has held Surratt below two touchdowns. For the season, the 6-foot-2, 200-pound sophomore has rushed for 21 touchdowns and passed for 22 in nine games. When Byus talks about spreading the ball around, some of the other players he's talking about are Surratt's younger brother Sage Surratt (436 receiving yards, eight touchdowns), Damisho Finandis (375 receiving yards, 2 TDs), Damarius Valentine (336 receiving yards, 4 TDs) and others. In two games, eight different players caught a pass. Valentine is East Lincoln's top rusher behind Surratt at 53.3 yards per game.
East Lincoln ranks first in the SD7 in total offense (425.8 yards per game) and total defense (235.3 yards per game). The Mustangs lead the SD7 in scoring at 39.8 points per game and rank second in scoring defense (15.3). The leader in that category? Maiden at 14.9 points per game.
If the offensive averages hold out, then these teams could be in for a shootout as Maiden's offense (yardage and scoring) ranks second in the league behind East Lincoln. The leader of that offense is senior quarterback Jake McRee, who leads the SD7 in passing at 2,198 yards and 30 touchdowns. McRee's top targets are Alex White (540 yards, 6 TDs), Kyle Kelly (528 yards, 10 TDs) and Justus Woods (469 yards, 5 TDs).
"They know what it takes to win so we're going to have to come into the game and execute well, keep the turnovers to a bare minimum and hope that we create a couple of turnovers," Byus said. "That always seems to be the deciding factor in big games."
Maiden leads the SD7 in turnover margin at +13. East Lincoln has a +6 turnover margin and hasn't turned the ball over in the past two games.
The winner of this game will clinch no worse than a share of the SD7 championship and will have a chance to win the outright title in next week's regular-season finale. East Lincoln closes at West Lincoln while Maiden hosts Lincolnton.
The game has drawn more than local attention because both teams are ranked in the Associated Press 2A top 10. East Lincoln is No. 3 and Maiden is No. 7. "I think it's going to be like a playoff atmosphere," Byus said. Phillip Gardner: 704-869-1843; twitter.com/gazettephil Fight against cancer: Tickets for the Maiden-East Lincoln game cost $6 each.

Anyone has sample JCL for Secure FTP which ftps data from mainframe to unix systems?
Start here with this previous topic.
That link contain only the explanation. But JCl is not there. Any one provide the JCL for this with explanation..
VenkateshMuthiyalu, that is how these Forums operate. Had the original poster provided some follow-up, maybe there'd be more information to go on. Hopefully, as you discover what needs to be done, you can provide your follow-up so the next poster can benefit.
PGM=BPXBATCH is the MVS to Unix interface program. You can see more information here in the 11.2 The BPXBATCH utility from the z/OS V1R8.0 UNIX System Services User's Guide.
PARM='sh sftp -b sftp-batch ... tells BPXBATCH to run the shell command "sftp". The "-b" switch tells sftp to use the batch file "sftp-batch" for its input. The next parameter would be the TCP/IP address of the Unix server to connect to.
STDOUT and STDERR are your standard-output and standard-error designations.
IF i am correct the above mentioned script are to be written in the sftp-batch file in unix to SFTP the file name hello.c.
I went through the BXPBATCH UTILITY. Their its given that we have mention about STDENV. Can you guide me about STDENV.
If I want to user USERID/PWD in the JCL above, where to code the USERID and PASSWORD?
Can you guide me about STDENV.
When you are using BPXBATCH to run a program, you typically pass the program a file that sets the environment variables. If you do not pass an environment variable file when running a program with BPXBATCH, or if the HOME and LOGNAME variables are not set in the environment variable file, those two variables are set from your logon RACF profile. LOGNAME is set to the user name, and HOME is set to the initial working directory from the RACF profile.
Note: When using BPXBATCH with the SH option (SH is the default), environment variables specified in the STDENV DD are overridden by those specified in /etc/profile and .profile (which overrides /etc/profile). This is because SH causes BPXBATCH to execute a login shell that runs the /etc/profile script and runs the user's .profile.
There is more in the manual about the details, but you can read it yourself.
I don't know. I can't find any documentation that supports the concept of sub-commands for providing a userid and/or password for SFTP. I belive that's because the user authentification takes place when the connection is first made between the client and server.
Maybe someone more familiar with Unix and/or SFTP will know.


Note pretty but a workaround for those with auth on their couch.

Man jailed for throwing acid at journalist: 'Attacks of this nature on freedom of the press will not be tolerated'
By PA Mediapoint Twitter
A man who threw acid in the face of a journalist on the doorstep of his home has been jailed for ten years.
William Burns posed as a postman before throwing sulphuric acid at Russell Findlay at his home in Glasgow in December 2015.
Sentencing Burns at the High Court in Aberdeen on Tuesday, Judge Lord Matthews said the 56-year-old had apparently carried out the "vicious, premeditated attack" due to objecting "to something that your victim wrote".
Findlay, who was investigations editor of the Scottish Sun at the time, overpowered Burns with the help of neighbours.
Burns, from Paisley, Renfrewshire, denied the attack but was found guilty of assault to severe injury and danger of life following a trial at the High Court in Glasgow.
He was sentenced to ten years in jail with five years on licence following release.
Matthews told him he was "clearly a dangerous man".
He said: "You have been convicted of a vicious, premeditated attack by the throwing of sulphuric acid into the face of a journalist on the threshold of his own home two days before Christmas.
"You were caught virtually red-handed and your own evidence was an obvious fabrication from start to finish, plainly being made up as you were going along.
"Leaving aside your own explanation why you were there, the only reason I can discern for your actions is that you objected to something that your victim wrote.
"There are ways and means of dealing with grievances, real or imagined, against the media and this was plainly not one of them.
"The freedom of the press is an essential tool in the armoury of any democracy and attacks of this nature will not be tolerated."
His sentencing statement, later released by the Judiciary of Scotland, continued: "To some extent, you bit off more than you could chew. Mr Findlay did not take your attack lying down.
"He was able to overpower you and with the prompt assistance of neighbours you were detained there and then.
"Due to the intervention of those neighbours, Mr Findlay's injuries were not as bad as they might have been.
"It is or should be well-known that acid has the potential to cause catastrophic damage and it is no thanks to you that that was not the case here."

How can it be permissible
She compromised my principle, yeah yeah
That kind of love is mythical
She's anything but typical
She's a craze you'd endorse, she's a powerful force
You're obliged to conform when there's no other course
She used to look good to me, but now I find her
Her loving is so powerful, huh
It's simply unavoidable
The trend is irreversible
The woman is invincible
She's a natural law, and she leaves me in awe
She deserves the applause, I surrender because
(Simply irresistible) She's so fine, there's no tellin' where the money went
(Simply irresistible) She's all mine, there's no other way to go
She's unavoidable, I'm backed against the wall
She gives me feelings like I never felt before
I'm breaking promises, she's breaking every law
She's so fine, there's no tellin' where the money went
Her methods are inscrutable
The proof is irrefutable, Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
She's so completely kissable, huh
Our lives are indivisible

Joe, I think that would be a great idea, like you say 6CM falls right between the 243 and 243AI.
The rifle is a Savage single shot action with a Douglas 1:10 .243 A.I. with .278 neck. The brass is Lapua that has been neck turned just enough to be concentric, flasholes deburred and uniformed, Federal Large Match primers. Brass was fire formed, shot several times, shoulder bumped .001 with Redding type S die and neck sized with .268 bushing.
1) 70 grn. Nosler Ballistic Tip, 43.4 grn. Varget, vel. =3650 ft/s, accuracy = 1" 5 shot group @200 meters. Bullet .010 into lands.
2) 80 grn. Berger Varmint Match, 47.3 grn. H4350, vel. = 3550 ft/s, accuracy = .357 5 shot group @200 meters. Bullet .010 into lands.
3) 87 grn. Hornady V-Max, 44.1 grn. H4831, vel. unknown, accuracy = 9/16" 5 shot group @200 meters. Bullet .010 into lands.
This barrel has approx. 1500 rds. through it and is still shooting with considerable cracking in throat area and well down the barrel as viewed with bore scope. I'll shoot until it quits and then screw on brand new PacNor Super Match stainless 1:12 .243 A.I. .270 neck dia. or new Douglas 1:10 .243 A.I. .270 neck dia. which I currently have. I'm really anxious to see what the PacNor will deliver.
Shooting a Blaser Lrs2 in 243 46.6 vit n160 cci bench r, lapua brass 90 molly sceanars, has produced screamers at 100, clovering at 200 if i do my bit, twist is 1 in 10 so to slow for 105 scenars or 115 dtacs, trying to get a barrel made with 1 in 7.5 to shoot in my Blaser Lrs2 but its not looking good for me,doint think the blaser factory are interested so im emailng barrel manufacturers and hopeing that someone might be able to help? paul T, Ireland.
Remington model 700 VSSF , Tobler 26 inch barrel with 1 in 9 twist . Chambered in .243 AI std. neck .
Lapua cases , flashholes reamed and deburred , Federal Goldmatch primer .
Winchester cases , flashholes reamed and deburred , Federal Goldmatch primer .
51.5 gns WXR (same as RL22) , 80gn Nosler BT , 69.40mm OAL , 3481 FPS , 3 shots 0.300" . 4 x 3 shot groups at 0.5 gn increments from 50gns - 51.5gns into 0.6 inches .
Just rebarreled my 700 in 243AI 266nk Kreiger after 3 years with a 6br Lilja. Picked up a jug of Accurate Data 86 from PVI(glad I did). First three shots after forming the Lapua brass went into .183 at 100 yds. Next four or five three shotters were in the low to mid twos. This was with CCI 200's and a Berger 88 Gr LD naked. Funny that thing was I was trying to work up the load and it shot this way with 45,46,47,48,49and 50 grs. of powder. Seems the barrel doesnt care what the charge is .
Anyway, I put the 49gr. load over my 35P and was getting 3550fps.
- 6 BR load :Lapua cases, moly Lapua Scenar 105gr bullets (rifling is 1 in 8"), CCI BR 4 primers, 31 grains of Vihatvuori N150 ; OAL = 2.230" ; accuracy : less THAN better than 1" at 300 meters.

Rifle: Rem M700 action, McMillan M40a-1 stock, Lilja 24-inch varmint contour barrel 1-in 10 twist, Scope 6.5-20 Leupold with Premier Reticles Gen2 mildot.
Loads: (1) 65-grain Hornady V-Max, 41.0 grains Varget, Winchester brass, Federal Match primers. 5-shots at 100 yds (off sandbags): .530-inches. No chronograph data available.
Shooting F class(open, Oz type) Rifle is a Mastin/Barnard F class change barrel.
FYI The 6BR won the 900yd, and the 1000yd in the lead up to the National Queens, Brisbane, Queensland, Aust.June 06. It shot tighter than 6.5/284, 6.5x57AI, 280AI,et all.
The .243AI MIGHT have the edge in the wind, but the 6BR holds vertical like nothing else.

N.o 6. Department of State, Feb.r 7.th 1798.
I enclose the copy of a letter dated the 21.st ult. from Samuel Chase Esq.r Agent of the State of Maryland, relative to the stock of that State in the Bank of England. In that letter and in the re-solves of the General Assembly of Maryland, the opinions and wishes of the State are so fully expressed, I have only to transmit them to you for your information and government in the further prosecution of the claim.
I have the honor to be / Very respectfully, Sir, / Your obed.t servant
Timothy Pickering
Rufus King Esq.r Minister Plenipotentiary / &.c &.c / London
Chase Transcript
(Copy) Baltimore 21.st Jan.y 1798~
The communications to you from Mr. King, respecting the Stock in the Bank of England, belonging to this State, have been laid before the General Assembly thereof, and their opinion on this subject is explicitly declared in the Resolutions, which I have now the honor to enclose you; and which I request the favor of you to transmit to Mr. King, by the first opportunity, that may offer. – With great reluctance the Legislature consented, that Mr. King should take a transfer of any thing less than the whole of the Stock; to which they conceive they have a most unquestionable right.
I have been informed, that it has been referred to the Officers of the Crown of Great Britain to report, whether his Majesty should direct a transfer of the stock to the State absolutely, or conditionally; and if conditionally, on what terms. – The report has been made; but the contents not known. If any conditions of transfer are stipulated the reasons for imposing them are probably suggested in the report. If no part of the Stock is to be detained by the Crown of Great Britain, Mr. King will take a transfer of the whole; but if part is detained, Mr. King will accept the residue; but in this case the Legislature of this State expect that, on a candid and firm representation to the British Government, on behalf of this State, by the Minister of the United States, the residue <p.2>will be immediately obtained; and if it fails, they hope that, at some more favorable time, the British Government will do them Justice. – The detention of any part of the Stock is considered by Maryland as an act of injustice, not warranted by the Law of England, or the Law of Nations; and is in violation of the Treat of Peace of 1783. It is certainly impolitic in the Crown of Great Britain to confiscate money in the National funds; and it seems also impolitic to disgust an important memeber [sic]of our National Government, particularly at this time, and for the trivial sum of £10, or 11,000 Ster.g, and it may be remembered that the vote of Maryland decided the subject of appropriation, and consequently the fate of the late Treaty.
I have the honor to remain, / with great respect and esteem / y.r most obed.t Serv.t
Samuel Chase.
The Honorable / Timothy Pickering, / Secretary of State.
Timothy Pickering (1745-1829) joined the militia in 1766 and served in the American Revolution under George Washington, becoming adjutant general from 1777–78 and quartermaster general from 1780–85. He later served as U.S. postmaster general from 1791–95, Secretary of War in 1795, and Secretary of State from 1795–1800. He served in the U.S. Senate from 1803 to 1811 and in the House of Representatives from 1813 to 1817. A leader of the Federalist Party, he was a member of the Essex Junto, and he opposed the War of 1812. After retiring from politics, he turned to experimental farming and education.

Beyond Good and Evil 2 is Ubisoft's biggest game yet
Ubisoft's new prequel is like No Man's Sky and Grand Theft Auto morphed into a diverse sci-fi package
By: Derek Strickland from Dec 10, 2018 @ 19:04 CST
Beyond Good and Evil 2 looks incredibly ambitious, and should be a dream game for Ubisoft.
Ubisoft's business model focuses heavily on engagement, and all of its games have live services. Beyond Good and Evil 2 will be no exception: everything we've seen so far shows it was built from the ground up as a online live service game with tons of monetization opportunities and engagement hooks. The sci-fi RPG's galactic scope rivals some of the biggest names in the industry and looks to be a cross between No Man's Sky's exploration and feel with Grand Theft Auto's open-ended chaos, all wrapped together with a unique visual style. After all, Ubisoft describes it as a "seamless online playground" that's designed to be explored alone or with friends.
It's been a while since we saw Beyond Good and Evil 2 in action--it was formally announced at E3 2017 with an amazing trailer--the devs showed off some new pre-alpha gameplay to whet our appetites. No release date was confirmed (maybe expect a 2019 or 2020 release) but we did get some interesting tidbits, including ship augments and a true idea of just how big the game is.
Ubisoft makes it clear that Beyond Good and Evil 2 is a space juggernaut with a tiered size structure: planets house huge, sprawling cities infused with high-tech ethnic flair, and big systems house the planets themselves in coordinated star charts, and the systems are parts of a galaxy--not unlike No Man's Sky.
Players can fly through cities on ships or hovercrafts, bringing to mind a sense of Anthem's vertical freedoms. The cities are bustling with aircraft and signs of life, merging sci-fi and fantasy together in a colorful way--but it remains to be seen how dynamic and reactive these environments actually are.
The ship-to-ship combat reminds me of a high-tech Star Fox game and genuinely looks quite fun, bringing to mind Star Wars: Battlefront II's dogfighting. Everything on your ship can be upgraded and customized including its arsenal.
The studio also gives an idea of how the game will be monetized. I expect Beyond Good and Evil 2 will be a buy-to-play game, meaning no subscriptions and extra content will be funded via microtransactions, as per Ubisoft's usual model.
Aircraft can be customized in various ways, many of which should be monetized--including the cosmetic options:
"You'll also be able to fully customize your own rides, swapping out modules, wings, engines, equipment, and cosmetic options to tailor your machines to look good and hold their own in a fight."
Players will also be able to scout planet surfaces with the spyglass mechanic, essentially transforming the space romp into a kind of intergalactic treasure hunt. It's here that we see the long-term engagement potential as gamers will spend lots of time scouring planets for secrets, items, upgrades, quests and other content, not unlike a space-themed Assassin's Creed of yore.
We could also expect paid expansions to accompany the microtransactions, as well as a multi-year timeline of updates. Whatever Ubisoft has planned for this game, it's clear they're investing considerable efforts to make it happen.
We still have no clue when Beyond Good and Evil 2 will release, but based on the slow progress, I say expect it during the next-generation of consoles sometime in 2021 or thereabouts.
For even more info on the game, check the official developer livestream below along with key info:
Journey to System 3, for the prequel to one of Ubisoft's most beloved games! Fight alongside unforgettable characters in a stunning new solar system, as you struggle for freedom and the right to determine your own fate among the stars. Play the adventure by yourself or with friends in a vast and seamless online playground.
Beyond Good and Evil 2 is the spiritual successor to the cult classic, a prequel that will transport players into a profoundly multicultural world, capturing the spirit of the original with grandiose decors and intense dramas that play out across a vast universe. Through the Space Monkey Program, Ubisoft Montpellier will be developing the game alongside its community of fans.
System 3 has become the center of interstellar trade and colonization in the Milky Way of the 24th century, thanks to the creation of Hybrid slaves. While private enterprises fight over resources and power, the first colonists weave together the rich and diverse spiritual and cultural heritages of Old Earth to give meaning to their existence. In this new era of piracy, we will rise from lowly pirate to legendary captain at the helm of massive star-faring vessels, adventuring alongside crews of colorful characters to fight for freedom and the right to determine our own fate among the stars!

Q: Jquery Callback function issue I am trying to create hover effect with callback function.  It seems that the effect can only be trigged on the callback function but not the init hover. I was wondering if someone here can help me out. Thanks a lot.
$("img").live("hover", function () {
    // hover in
    $(this).css("z-index", 1);
    $(this).animate({
        height: "35%",
        width: "35%",
        left: "-=50",
        top: "-=50"
    }, "fast");
}, function () { //only the following codes will be triggered.
    // hover out
    $(this).css("z-index", 0);
    $(this).animate({
        height: "15%",
        width: "15%",
        left: "+=50",
        top: "+=50"
    }, "fast");
});

The img are generated via ajax call, not sure if it's relevant

A: live() is deprecated, and it does'nt really work that way, but if you are using jQuery 1.7+ you should be using on() to delegate the event to the closest non dynamic parent, I'll use document in the example, you'll replace document with the closest parent to the image that is'nt inserted with Ajax, probably #image_layout if that element is not inserted dynamically :
$(document).on({
    mouseenter: function() {
        $(this).css("z-index", 1).animate({
                height: "35%",
                width: "35%",
                left: "-=50",
                top: "-=50"
            }, "fast");
    },
    mouseleave: function() {
        $(this).css("z-index", 0).animate({
                height: "15%",
                width: "15%",
                left: "+=50",
                top: "+=50"
            }, "fast");
    }
}, "img");

On another note, using += and percentages in your animations will in many cases cause you nothing but grief.

A: As of jQuery 1.7, the .live() method is deprecated. Use .on() to attach event handlers. Users of older versions of jQuery should use .delegate() in preference to .live().
Try on!
Also your params are wrong, the second param should be data nog some kind of callback see for more information: http://api.jquery.com/live/

- Got this strap about a month ago for my X-T1. Never used because I had to return my X-T1 due to the light leak problem. So for about a month, all I did was to flex, twist, and massage this strap to soften it up until I got my replacement X-T1.
- There are some dye transfers from the black side of the strap to the tan colored side. I emailed Justin of Tap&Dye and he assured that this was natural and will eventually gradually fade because the leather will darken naturally as well.
- This strap is pretty supple now since I spend a few minutes with it very now and then when I have the time and massage it.
- Comes with original packaging and labels.
NOTE: If you get both straps, I will include a Gordy's black leather hand strap for FREE (found on the photo below).


Joe met with officials the at the museum and they loved the idea and ask that since they open at 10am on Saturday they would like us to arrive about that time. This makes it easier as we do not have to drag food and drinks around! So if you cannot make it for breakfast then plan on coming by the museum about 10am or later!
How long we stay kind of depends on the weather and the visitors. They are calling for a chance of rain later in the day on Saturday and of course that WILL change. According to Joe WØMQY, the officials at the museum were very excited about our visit and plan to do several media hits including the paper, the museum facebook page and possibly tv news! Also I highly suggest while you are there, going inside and seeing what they have there. There are some great historical pieces, places, faces and more. A great collection of local history. Be sure to go in and SIGN THE GUESTBOOK !! If you have any questions or suggestions please let us know, either through the group email system or comment here directly!
