Preview: Rovers Ladies v Coventry United
Can Rovers Ladies complete a historic quadruple?
@RoversLadies
Rovers Ladies finish off another highly successful season on Saturday, facing Coventry United in the Championship 'play off' at Valley Parade, (3pm).
Both teams have already been promoted to the FA Women's Championship for 2019/20, with the winners of this game being crowned overall FA WNL champions.
And for Rovers, it's a chance to complete a unique quadruple, having already won the League, League Cup and County Cup like last season.
But it was the final winner takes all game that Gemma Donnelly's side failed to overcome in the last two years, losing the play off game.
"For us, I feel it just has to be third time lucky and that we have waited patiently to claim this accolade," Donnelly said ahead of the game.
"The players have experienced the highest of highs but the lowest of lows over the past three seasons and I hope we can finally achieve ultimate success by being crowned the National League champions.
"It's a title I believe we are deserving of, having shown complete dominance for three seasons and falling at the final hurdle."
Rovers have not met Coventry since last year's dramatic League Cup Semi-Final on home soil, when the Blues came from two goals down to take the game to penalties - and win, with Danielle Hill saving the final spot-kick.
"Congratulations to Coventry United on their achievements this season. Like us, they have dominated their league and are deserved winners."
"I expect a 90-minute battle between the two teams as we both wish to be crowned National Champions.
"Our squad brings enormous experience and quality and I hope we are able to exhibit that on the pitch in front of our fans, friends and family one last time this season."
There's still time to book your place on the supporters' coach to Bradford online. Match tickets are also available to purchase here.

The Humble Apron
added on February 15, 2017 Updated on February 15, 2017
I don't think our kids know what an apron is
The principal use of Grandmas's apron was to protect the dress underneath because she only had a few and because it was easier to wash aprons than dresses, and aprons required less material.
But, along with that, it served as a potholder for removing hot pans from the oven.
It was wonderful for drying children's tears and, on occasion, was even used for cleaning dirty ears.
From the chicken coop, the apron was used for carrying eggs, fussy chicks, and sometimes half-hatched eggs to be finished in the warming oven.
When company came, those aprons were ideal hiding places for shy kids.
And when the weather was cold, Grandma wrapped it around her arms.
Those big old aprons wiped many a perspiring brow, bent over the hot wood stove. Chips and kindling wood were brought into the kitchen in that apron.
From the garden, it carried all sorts of vegetables. After the peas had been shelled, it carried out the hulls.
In the autumn, the apron was used to bring in apples that had fallen from the trees.
When unexpected company drove up the road, it was surprising how much furniture that old apron could dust in a matter of seconds.
When dinner was ready, Grandma walked out onto the verandah, waved her apron, and the men folk knew it was time to come in from the fields for dinner.
It will be a long time before someone invents something that will replace that 'old-time apron' that served so many purposes.
The Government would go crazy now trying to figure out how many germs were on that apron. I don't think I ever caught anything from an apron . . . except for love.
REMEMBER WHEN Grandma used to set her hot baked apple pies on the window sill to cool? Now her granddaughters set theirs on the window sill to thaw.

Given the fast pace of modern life, traditional qualities associated with childhood - imagination, play, wonder... fun! - are in danger of being left behind. Surrounded by technology and pressured into early learning, the modern child is often bounced between the 'entertainment' of television and computer games and the premature intellectualization of early reading and school tests.
Sally Schweizer calls for a new evaluation of childhood and an awakening to the real needs of children. As a mother of four, and having spent more than three decades working in education (as a kindergarten teacher, teacher-trainer and advisor), she is well qualified to ask questions and offer solutions. Well, I Wonder is packed with practical advice, anecdotes, humour and delightful quotes from the children Schweizer has taught. Her approach is based on the study and practice of Rudolf Steiner's educational philosophy, but she writes from personal, first-hand knowledge gained from her long experience.
Schweizer guides the reader through the stages of childhood development and explains children's need of daily rhythm, movement and play. She emphasizes the importance of guarding the quality of imagination, and indicates the significance of festivals and celebrations. She offers helpful tips and wise advice throughout this well-illustrated book, which also features an 8-page colour section on the evolution of children's drawings.
SALLY SCHWEIZER is a state-trained teacher. She has taught mostly under-sevens, been a teacher-trainer and an advisor. Her principal concern regards children's loss of childhood. Having written many articles related to this theme, this is her first book for parents, teachers and carers. Music has been central to her life, along with spending much time outside, being a keen gardener and conservationist in adulthood.

This Week's Top 5 TV Moments: 'Every Simpsons Ever' Over
By Alison Herman
There are scores of TV shows out there, with dozens of new episodes each week, not to mention everything you can find on Hulu Plus, Netflix streaming, and HBO Go. How's a viewer to keep up? To help you sort through all that television has to offer, Flavorwire is compiling the five best moments on TV each week. This round, FXX swaps out its epic Simpsons marathon for The League.
FXX Finished Airing #EverySimpsonsEver
Many stopped paying attention to FXX's marathon/publicity stunt once it burned through peak Simpsons, i.e. Seasons 1 through 8 or so. But #EverySimpsonsEver kept going and didn't stop until Monday, powering through more than a dozen additional seasons of the beloved animated sitcom. If you missed the main event, fear not: Simpsons World is coming to a device near you, enabling your worst binge-watching habits in a way even Netflix never has.
The League Resumes Play
Everyone's favorite niche comedy about fantasy football is back, and it welcomes fans with… the untimely death of Adam Brody, and a draft held at his funeral. There is also morgue sex involved, lest you think the dynamic doesn't get more delightfully fucked up from there.
Frank Underwood and "Stephen Colbert" Have a Chat
We know exactly where Stephen Colbert's going after The Colbert Report ends, but if you're looking for "Stephen Colbert," he went to see Frank Underwood about some train tracks. Kevin Spacey stopped by the show in all his drawl-y, "menacingly homespun" glory, dropping "G"s and talkin' long-winded dog metaphors. Watch the clip above.
The Saved by the Bell Movie Happened
… and Lifetime never made a godawful TV movie again. LOL JK! Anyway, here is Pilot Viruet's cogent explanation of why this entry into the late-summer doldrums doesn't even deserve the Lifetime trademark brand of so bad it's good.
Candidly Nicole Ends Its First Season
Purple hair haver, American hero, and star of 2014's best dance track Nicole Richie wrapped up the first installment of her new reality show Candidly Nicole last night. The premise was exactly as mundane as it sounded, and it mostly served to remind us of how great The Simple Life was the first time around. In summation: perfect late-summer TV.

Top 5 Most Played Casino Games
HenryFebruary 9, 2022
Group of happy diverse people at the blackjack table. You might also be interested in these:
Have you ever wondered which games are the most popular in the casino? In this article, we have come up with a list of the top 5 most popular casino games so you know what game to look out for when you play at your preferred casino.
1. Blackjack
Blackjack is perhaps the most popular of all the casino games and it's loved by both new and experienced players. Unlike many other casino games, which are based purely on luck, the game of Blackjack is kind of dependent on the players' judgment skills, making it more thrilling and exciting for its gamers. Furthermore, many people regard Blackjack as an extremely easy game with few rules. The goal of Blackjacks is to simply beat the dealer to a hand of twenty one without having to go bust, in the event that the game moves quickly and is continually shifting for the players. This game is perfect for all those who enjoy playing a thrilling game. These are the reasons that make blackjack a highly popular game.
2. Roulette
Roulette is ranked second to first. Roulette, like poker, has a lot of varieties to its gaming system. The social aspect of the game is what makes it so popular, with huge crowds willing to stand around the roulette wheel in a slot machine due to the sheer enthusiasm the game brings. Furthermore, roulette is frequently referred to as one of the best games to master in the casino scene, with anyone from novices to seasoned players being able to play the game.
3. Three card poker
The three card poker ranks third on our list, but with lots of variation in poker games, it can be somehow hard to know which exact type is popular and which one is less popular. In the United Kingdom, three card poker remains one of the most popular choices. This game is played using three cards and it's fun and easy to learn. In this game, the punters play with dealers at the table, and they cannot play with other players who are at the table. This entertaining game is a popular choice for newbies who are trying casino games for the first time.
Punto Banco, also known as Baccarat, comes in fourth on our list of the most popular casino games. The goal of this relatively simple casino game is to evaluate which hand, the Banco or the Punto, will be nearest to the value of nine. Gamers can also wager on the possibility of a tie.
5. Video poker
Video poker is quite an interesting game and the machine resembles slot machines. But the game is somehow different. This game is known to have a low house edge and skilled players consider it to be an even money game. First time players will find it easy to pick this game, although it's got a little learning curve. It's a game that everyone setting foot at the casino would want to play.
There are various reasons why some casino games are more popular than others. Some of these factors are ease of play, short learning curve and low house edge. For those who want to know which casino game is the most popular, the above 5 options come top.

Romulus and Leah left Isla's home. Leah felt terrible for leaving her grandmother, but she couldn't leave Romulus. It was already mid-afternoon, and Romulus changed in his werewolf form. With his new form, it was much faster for them to go back to the werewolf world.
They both passed many trees and mountains, but she knew that Romulus was cautious. Leah felt peace as they were passing trees, mountains, or were in mid-air. She felt safe and warm being with Romulus.
They were almost there.
A couple of hours later, they made it to a waterfall and entered. Romulus changed back into his human form. He was nude.
Leah let him go and handed him his clothing. She looked away and blushed at the sight of him. "You can look, my love. It's not like you haven't seen this before."
"I-I want to respect your privacy! That's all!"
Romulus merely chuckled. He put on clothes and then held his mate's hand. They walked within the path until they saw the light at the end of the trail. They made it to the other side and made it to the werewolf world. Nightfall had already hit, and they saw the villages from afar.
"Let's go, my love; we must be careful," said Romulus. He then carried Leah, bridal style, and ran through the forest towards the village. He let her down, and both walked to the village, the houses were lit, but there was no one in sight.
Romulus felt uneasy, as did Leah, but did not mention it. They kept on walking through the streets towards their home. They got closer and closer, but Romulus stopped and held onto Leah.
"What's wrong, Romulus?"
"I sense something in our home."
Leah held Romulus and felt nervous.
All of a sudden, werewolves appeared around them, and others came out from their home. Romulus held Leah closer to him and growled. "What is the meaning of this!?"
None of the other werewolves answered, and then, a couple of four older men walked forward. All were not happy. "Romulus, we have been told that you and your mate have broken the law of our kind! You know that once a werewolf finds a mate, they are no longer allowed to go back to the human world!"
Romulus growled, and Leah felt afraid. "None of you have proof that my mate and I broke the law!"
Another elder spoke. "That is where you are wrong. Another told us of your absence."
Leah gasped, and Romulus flinched. "Who!?"
Then, the couple heard footsteps. Leah and Romulus were shocked. "It can't be! Remus!?"
Remus stepped forward. "Yes, cousin. It was me."
Romulus could not believe his eyes. "No, it can't be! Why would you-!?"
"You broke the law, cousin. Nothing more. You could have put our world in danger."
Another elder stepped forward. "Since Remus informed us of the news, we would grant him anything he desired. All he asked is for your mate."
Leah was horrified, while Romulus was outraged. "No! I will not let any of you take her away from me!"
Then, the other werewolves got a hold of Leah and Romulus, separating them both from one another. Leah screamed as she was being taken away and Romulus was tied. His eyes never left Leah as she was taken farther. He then glared at his cousin, the one who he trusted. "Remus!"
Remus said nothing. He turned and walked away. Romulus struggled to get out of his brethren's grip, but it was no use. His brethren overpowered him.
All he thought was his mate! His mate! "LEAH!!"

Before entering into this discussion I need to clarify what I mean by a "tree metaphor" as opposed to a "tree symbol." As a symbol, a tree is a substitute for something else. For instance, an image of a tree could be a symbol for strength, wisdom or the essence of nature, such as the logo of a tree (shown below) that I created based on an etching by Franz Weirotter (shown further below), Unter den Wasserfällen zu Tivoli [Near the Waterfalls of Tivoli]. By design, trees portrayed as symbols are usually stripped of pictorial information that may take attention away from their intended symbolic meaning (i.e. the tree may be depicted as a generic tree or as a stylised schema of foliage and limbs).
As a metaphor, a tree is a pictorial device for explaining an idea or concept. For instance, Weirotter's etching is not about tree symbolism per se; nevertheless, the featured clump of trees in the print can be seen as projecting metaphorical meanings. To explain this from a personal reading, Weirotter often features trees awkwardly clinging to life on top of rocks (see Weirotter's Aus der Umgebung von Tivoli, Landscapes with Trees, Plate 8 and Pate 9 shown further below). My interpretation of this curious leaning for depicting trees in this way is that Weirotter is alluding to the precarious uncertainty of life. By this I mean that the trees in their portrayed predicament may soon run out of the life-giving sustenance of soil and water, or a gale may uproot and topple them. This metaphor for the uncertainty of life is enhanced by the placement of men—perhaps shepherds?—shown beneath the tree-capped boulder. Again, from personal interpretation, there is a suggestion of foreboding connoted by the closer figure's seated pose below the talon-like roots of the trees. Moreover, the diminutive size of both figures compared to the scale of the rocky terrain and the bulging forms of this terrain amplifies the feeling of unease.
[Third Suite of Regions and Fragments of Old Buildings].

One of the most prevalent tree metaphors in art is the concept of regeneration wherein a cut or broken stump of a tree is juxtaposed with fresh growth. A typical example of this juxtaposition can be seen in Raphael Sadeler's (1584–1627/32) Saint Arnulf (Arnoul) of Metz (shown below). Here, the broken stump of a regenerating tree featured in the foreground becomes a metaphor for sacrifice and redemption—a central tenet of the Christian faith—when viewed in context with the praying saint and the symbol of his devotion: the crucifix. From my reading of the image, the contextualisation of the stump as a metaphor is not accidental. There is a clear triangle formed between the direction that the stump is angled and the two crucifixes portrayed—one on the roof of the saint's dwelling and the other on a tree supporting his dwelling. This triangulation in the composition, along with the devotional pose of the saint at the centre of the triangle, creates visual dialogue between these portrayed elements to project meaning (see diagram further below).
Condition: Superb and rare first state impression (before the "12" is erased for the second state). There is an ink stamp of a previous collector verso, a light pencil notation "53" and "4" in ink recto, and a stain rising from the lower middle and ending 1 cm before the plate mark; otherwise in very good condition (for its age). I am selling this print for a total cost (including shipping to anywhere in the world) of $130 AUD. Please contact me using the email link at the top of the page if you have any questions or click the "Buy Now" button below.
Another fine example of the regenerating tree metaphor can be seen in Aegidius Sadeler's (c.1570–1629), Aqueduct, Waterfalls, and Grotto (shown below). Here the regenerating tree is depicted in the middle-distance of a landscape. In this position the tree serves the critical role of visually "explaining" the connection between a recumbent shepherd portrayed in the foreground and a far distant burst of sunlight in sky that he appears to be contemplating. My interpretation of the regenerating tree's role in this context may, of course, be incorrect, but I see it as projecting two meanings. The first is that it illustrates the concept of the cycle of life and death. The second, and more interesting for me, concerns the position of the tree in the composition, in that it lies midway in the shepherd's line of sight to the burst of sunlight. This position suggests that the tree is a point of departure, or trigger, lifting the shepherd's thoughts from everyday temporal concerns to thoughts of spiritual transcendence in a heavenly abode.
Condition: Superb, crisp, well-inked impression with no stains or foxing. There is a fold mark passing through the centre of the lower grotto and a tiny dot (loss) along this fold mark that can be seen at the centre of this grotto. I am selling this print for a total cost (including shipping to anywhere in the world) of $175 AUD. Please contact me using the email link at the top of the page if you have any questions or click the "Buy Now" button below.
As a final example of the regenerating tree metaphor (before shifting the discussion to other forms of tree metaphors in the next post, Trees as Metaphors [Part 2]), I wish to focus on another landscape by Aegidius Sadeler: The Miners on the Mountain (Wood Landscape with a Waterfall) (shown below). Here, a regenerating tree, depicted in the middle foreground, exemplifies the cyclical nature of life surrounding it. For example, a stream to the left of the tree changes into a waterfall as it is broken into a cascade of rivulets by its rocky plunge only to re-emerge once again into a stream below. A similar cycle may be conceived involving a pair of figures—miners—featured in the top-left of the composition. These figures are shown walking along a curve in a road with another figure returning in the opposite direction; in short, a never-ending cycle of going somewhere and then coming back only to head out again. Without too much of an imaginative stretch, the notion of a cycle is also suggested by the circular rhythm in the composition involving the broken stump, lush growth on top of a cliff that the stump is angled towards, the downward flow of the stream and upward course of the stump's roots that completes the circular rhythm (see diagram below). My interpretation of this circular arrangement is that nature—synthesised down to tree, water and rock—is an ongoing process involving all the elements in creation and destruction.
Condition: Marvellous and strong impression of this extremely rare print. (Note that this print has been described as being "of utmost rarity" as there as been "no auction results for twenty years.") On the back are notational ink drawings that appear to be by an old hand. There is a 1.2 cm tear at the bottom-left and a patina of age (as may be seen in the verso view below). I am selling this print for a total cost (including shipping to anywhere in the world) of $525 AUD. Please contact me using the email link at the top of the page if you have any questions or click the "Buy Now" button below.
Use of the regenerating tree motif is not, of course limited to metaphors. Some artists simply portray a scene that is in front of them without the need to make their artworks pregnant with meaning. Consequently, a broken tree with regenerating grown that is in front of them is simply that: an observed tree. Nevertheless, the extensive use of this motif in compositions, especially during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, provides strong evidence that many artists were consciously choosing and crafting their portrayed imagery to project meanings unambiguously. In Part 2 (the next post) I will again address how artists have used trees as metaphors, but this time the focus will be on artists' use of trees to express mood.
Thanks for your generous comment. A few positive words like yours makes a big difference.
An impressive share, I just given this onto a colleague who was doing a little analysis on this. And he in fact bought me breakfast because I found it for him..

Sherwood: 'I Have Quite a Bit to Learn'
By Daniel Holloway 25 March 2014
When Ben Sherwood returned to ABC News for a third stint in 2010, this time as president of the division, he did so at the behest of Anne Sweeney, co-chairman, Disney Media Networks and president, Disney/ABC Television Group.
On Monday, Disney announced that Sherwood had been tapped by chairman and CEO Bob Iger to succeed Sweeney as caretaker of all Disney's non-sports television efforts worldwide. He will take the reins fully in February, 2015, when Sweeney departs to pursue a career as a television director.
"The transition that Bob Iger and Anne have conceived basically means that I will work very closely with Anne over the months ahead," Sherwood told B&C, adding that Sweeney provided essential support through some of the biggest achievements at ABC News during Sherwood's tenure, such as the ascension of Good Morning America to the top of the network morning-show ratings and the negotiation of a partnership between the news division and Yahoo. "There are things that I know and things that I do not know about this sprawling portfolio within the Disney/ABC media group, and so I have quite a bit to learn. We're going to be working very closely on all of that."
Sherwood said that his top two priorities now are to ensure a smooth transition with Sweeney and to name a successor at ABC News. He added that there is no date set by which he plans to announce a new news chief.
Iger first spoke with Sherwood about the position after Sweeney announced two weeks ago that she would exit the post early next year. A series of conversations followed, culminating in a very Disney moment.
"My family went to Disney World last week for a holiday — a well-timed Disney World vacation, as opposed to, say, Universal Studios or something like that," Sherwood said. "That was a joke. So we were on vacation, I think we had actually just come off the Space Mountain ride, when I received some communication that indicated that this was going to happen."
Asked whether Iger also spoke to female candidates or candidates from diverse backgrounds, Sherwood said that he had no direct knowledge, but added, "I'm confident that he did. I know that's the succession-planning process at the company."
Disney also on Monday announced that it had reached an agreement to purchase digital-video company Maker Studios — a network of 55,000 YouTube channels with 380 million subscribers—for $500 million. Sherwood said that it would be "presumptuous" to discuss the Maker deal just a few hours after the announcement of his promotion, but added generally that "digital distribution and short-form video are obviously very important parts of the media future."
Sherwood also expressed confidence in more traditional media.
"I think that broadcast television has an incredibly bright future," he said. He added that he spoke Monday to ABC Entertainment Group president Paul Lee — speculated by multiple media outlets as a possible contender to succeed Sweeney — at a staff meeting Monday. "We greeted each other warmly," he said. "I think he's a very talented, very bright executive. I think that he's had his share of hits. I know he's primed for more in the future, and I'm excited to see the upcoming development cycle and what the future holds."
In addition to his working as a producer in network news, Sherwood has also written three novels — one published under a pseudonym and one book of non-fiction. Asked how those experiences will guide his approach to the job, he said, "I come at it first and foremost as a journalist. That's my background. But also as a storyteller." He added, "I certainly have an eclectic background, but it all kind of comes together in telling stories, fiction and non-fiction, in creative and compelling ways."

You should keep an eye on the smith near the player stalls in serb as well as the vendor in the central shop in rahu also.
Lvl 50 to 70 gear is often sold to those 2, so you may find something there assuming your using a fairly popular skillset.
A little update to show how much ya'll helped...I was able to acquire a good chest upgrade in Gazluk in one of those caves. Since then its my farming spot but its 99% bones and dirt and 1% gear that has skills that I don't use. BUT...at least I know the possibility of better gear is there...somewhere.
Also, just a day or 2 ago, I was getting ready to log in front of Joeh and low and behold, some demigod with the same spec as me unloaded a bunch of gear on the shop. I was able to grab 2 nice pieces that have really helped. I'm now filling my inventory up in half the time while farming.
I'm sure at some point i'll have more questions as I push for the current endgame.

Q: Clion does not do correct syntax/error highlighting for msvc compiler for latest c++ standard I use Clion for Windows development and I have it setup for the latest Visual Studio 2022 Community toolchain. In my CMakeLists.txt the project's c++ standard is defined as set(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 23). This should enable MSVC compiler flag /std:c++latest by default and let me access all the newest c++ features available - and it does, except Clion doesn't recognize it.
The problem i'm having is that Clion seems to be highlighting certain new c++ features as errors even though it will build and compile the code just fine.
A sample program would be:
#include <source_location>

int main() {

    std::source_location::current().line();
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    // highlighted error, Clion does not recognize std::source_location as being part of the std namespace

    return 0;
}

The program will compile and run fine, but Clion will highlight errors. In this specific case with std::source_location it seems to think that __cpp_consteval is not defined, therefore it won't recognize any c++ features that require it.

Jeez this guy's a nutter
Come nightfall on 6 January, the party of Abraham Lincoln will be no more. Instead, the specters of Jim Crow and autocracy will flicker. Messrs Trump, Cruz and Hawley can take a collective bow.
Contesting the election result – a silly thing in my view – is akin to killing Reconstruction and bringing in Jim Crow.
After regurgitating for the umpteenth time unproven and unsubstantiated charges of electoral fraud, the senators invoked the election of 1876. Back then, the Democrats contested the outcome, conceding after the Republicans agreed to halt Reconstruction.
Well, yes, except who did bring in Jim Crow? Those Democrats………
previousQuestions, questions……
nextOf, or by?

Yes but, if you think the election was affected by fraud, what are you supposed to do? Let the Guardian decide whether the evidence is good? Let CNN decide? How do we turn things from unproven to disproven or proven? In a court. And no court will take on the job. What are you supposed to do?
Ted S, Catskill Mtns, NY, USA January 4, 2021 at 9:52 am
Considering how the Democrats and the media spent the last four years contesting the 2016 election, their complaints now should be taken with a grain of salt.
Rowdy January 4, 2021 at 10:44 am
There's some proper spleen being vented in the comments!
I might pop over and try and stir them up a bit.
The Pedant-General January 4, 2021 at 10:50 am
"a silly thing in my view "
Then you've not been paying attention Tim. Everything about this election stinks to high heaven. We've even seen Yes Minister's four stage strategy played out in real time.
Sod the mountains of affidavits – just look at the data. It stinks.
Steve January 4, 2021 at 10:56 am
"If you don't submit to widespread election fraud for which there is now massive documented eyewitness and video evidence which Yank courts have simply refused to consider, then you're RACIST" – some chutzpah merchant
But no, the Senate won't do anything about it (they couldn't even bring themselves to pretend they don't hate the proles over the latest "defense"/Covid relief grift bill). The GOP is perfectly happy to be the junior partner in the kleptocracy, this is just the slyer senators pre-positioning themselves as White Hats for fear of being primaried.
The only way this even potentially gets fixed is through executive action of the type that would've made Julius Caesar spit out his posca. I don't give that great odds of success tho, because Trump has a 100% track record of deference to courts even when their legal reasoning is "fuck you LOL", and because I don't think there are fifty righteous men left in Sodom-on-the-Potomac and even a chap as energetic as Donald J. can't be expected to do all the work.
As a general observation, there's no point in not fighting for as long as we draw breath, because we are men (and must be swift as the coursing river). Rep. Gohmert was absolutely right in pointing out that a system which no longer permits peaceful democratic change inevitably invites non-peaceful solutions. We've been here before with a sprawling, crumbling empire ruled by geriatric thieves and gagging on increasingly ludicrous official propaganda, but I don't see anyone – Trump included – with the massive, vodka-swollen balls of Boris Yeltsin in 1991.
Mr Ecks January 4, 2021 at 11:03 am
Once again you show a muggish streak Tim. Allow a CCP owned pair of cunts like Senile Joe and Kowmara Hate-Youse to fix the future elections so that no Repub ever wins again. Even the fucking Repub swampies should be able to see how dumb that is.
I hope Trump uses ANY means needed to keep power. If USA's days as a free Republic are done let it have a strongman rule by somebody who does not hate the country/people and is NOT a paid CCP agent. I DONT want America to cease being a free country but it would be better than CCP USA.
And no malarkey about checks and balances and Repub Senate will save us. Increasingly it is rule by EO and if Repub cowardly fucks wont–not cant wont- stop an election steal they wont stop American tyranny either.
BlokeInBrum January 4, 2021 at 11:15 am
If the Democrats won fair and square, where is the danger for them in having the results audited?
If the results are fair, then it's game over for Trump and he ends up being dismissed as a sore loser – whats not to like for them.
It's concerning that no one, not the Judiciary, not the media nor anyone else is bothered about the possibility of electoral fraud.
abacab January 4, 2021 at 11:24 am
Some Dems contested electoral college votes in Congress for every winning Repub since 2000. But this time it's different cos it's Repubs doing it.
philip January 4, 2021 at 11:32 am
Trump made the political weather and the storm is China. Congress is united on this point and Biden is so compromised he won't be able to do the CCP any favours. Until Hunter is safely in jail and Harris has taken over, at least.
Esteban January 4, 2021 at 11:47 am
Given that there is video evidence/proof of election fraud, anyone who claims it's unsubstantiated is a hack, although they are rampant in the MSM. And the affidavits and statistical impossibilities. Funny how Democrats bring up racist episodes that were they're doing.
And while the challenges may be a longshot, it would be a disaster for the Republicans not to call attention to this & fight it every way possible.
Jack the dog January 4, 2021 at 12:10 pm
Bloke in Brum has nailed it, this is the point that needs to be made and made again and nobody seems to be making.
Opinion polls shows that around a third of the electorate is convinced there has been fraud.
It is in nobody's interests to have faith in the electoral system lost by such a large number of (well armed) voters (obvs nobody gives a shit about rural tory voters in the UK).
This is a massive problem and I am staggered they are not addressing it.
Really shows what a bunch of cunts they are.
One year after a local council election I was going through the stats to send people a "Thanks for voting" leaflet, and noticed a higher-than-expected turnout from a residential home – one I had visited as a "civilian" as my grandfather was an inmate, and most of the people there was as non-compost as my grandad was.
I passed my concerns on to the authorities, and their attitude was: wot yer complaining about, you won dint you?
Andy ex-Taiwan January 4, 2021 at 7:09 pm
'The GOP is perfectly happy to be the junior partner in the kleptocracy'
This, in spades. Ir also applies to our useless Conservative party, in office for 10 years yet rolling over to every leftist fad.
I've come to the conclusion that most so-called right-wing politicians and journalists don't actually believe in any of the stuff they say or write, and only do so to advance their careers and line their pockets. Case in point- their reluctance to implement the policies that get them elected, and the number of Euroskeptic journalists who when it came down to it backed remain.
bobby b January 5, 2021 at 1:37 am
"Contesting the election result – a silly thing in my view . . . "
In our (USA) system, law has two avenues.
In order to change the election results, one goes through the civil system. In order to punish bad actors, one goes through the criminal system.
The courts have kicked out most of the civil-system attempts on grounds that do not go to the merits of the claims – laches (fer gawd's sake), standing, and various other procedure-centered issues that allow the courts to say "no effing way, this is a political question, and there's no way we're going to make a ruling that overturns the facial results of the election!" My hat's off to them – this is not something the courts should fix.
All of these issues were lost the day the various state systems allowed their election rules to be amended to allow unverified voting. That's when we should have jumped. Instead, (I think), we figured we'd win anyway, and we let it slide.
But we screwed up. We lost – the fraud that the new rules allowed was big enough to prevail. And now, expecting some judge to give us a do-over is the height of naivete'.
So, Biden wins. That's done. But what effect this can have in the future comes from the criminal court system. We can still investigate and prosecute those who ran the fraud.
And, we have to do this. We'll make other efforts designed to reverse this trend of "keep voting until we win" that the Democrats have instituted, but we mostly need to instill the fear of God into the cheaters, the liars, the frauds who made this all work. We need to burn their asses.
And that's what this Step 2 is designed to do.

10 open source software alternatives for the new year
Open source software can help you become better organized, more productive, more secure, and even healthier.
Scott Nesbitt (Alumni)
January 2, 2020 | 1 Comment | %t min read
Open source isn't just for techies. On your desktop (regardless of your operating system), on your phone, and in your business, open source software can help you become better organized, more productive, more secure, and healthier. Best of all, you don't need to worry about the shackles of proprietary licenses.
Throughout 2019, Opensource.com's team of Correspondents and community of writers have highlighted top-notch open source alternatives to proprietary software. Take a quick look at the best 10 of those articles.
In Intro to Corteza, an open source alternative to Salesforce, Dennis Arh introduces us to Corteza, a powerful and flexible customer relationship management (CRM) system. Dennis outlines what Corteza has to offer, then walks us through how to install and configure the system. While Corteza might not pack all the features of the bigger closed source CRM systems, it's more than enough for the majority of users.
Opensource.com Correspondent Chris Hermansen whips up an overview of a half-dozen instant messaging apps for mobile devices in Choosing an open messenger client: Alternatives to WhatsApp. While each of the six apps has its strengths, Chris recommends Signal for "its open-by-design approach, its serious and ongoing privacy and security stance, and having a Signal app on our GNOME (and Windows) desktops."

In 5 social media alternatives to protect your privacy, privacy advocate Dan Arel walks through several open source replacements for Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and Facebook Messenger. Dan also shares how he cut his ties with those privacy-crushing services without losing touch with the people who matter. His approach might work for you, too.
You don't need an expensive application like Adobe Acrobat to work with PDF files on the Linux desktop, as I show in Two graphical tools for manipulating PDFs on the Linux desktop. These tools are simple, but they pack a lot of punch and take care of most of your PDF manipulation needs.
In How to create an automated calendar with Google Apps Script with open source on top, Correspondent Dan Barker explores how to manage conference submissions by stitching together a Google Sheet with Google Calendar using a script he wrote. OK, the services Dan's script interacts with aren't open source, but you can grab that script from Dan's GitLab repository and modify it to your heart's content.
In 4 open source apps for plant-based diets, Correspondent Joshua Allen Holm uncovers some mobile apps that can help you plan meatless meals, shop more effectively for the ingredients for those meals, and find vegan and vegetarian restaurants nearby. As someone who's shifting to a more plant-based diet, I can see myself using a couple of these apps in the near future. And that they're available on F-Droid is a bonus.
I dive into a very useful spreadsheet editor that's built for collaboration in Get going with EtherCalc, a web-based alternative to Google Sheets. If you're of a technical bent, you can run your own instance; otherwise, you can use one of several hosted editions. EtherCalc does take a bit of getting used to, but if your needs are simple, you'll find (as I did) that it's a flexible tool.
Opensource.com's Seth Kenlon examines CBZ and DjVu: Open source alternatives to PDFs. This pair of digital archive formats can do everything PDF can do but are easier to manipulate. Seth also shows how to use command-line tools to create archives in the CBZ and DjVu formats and, with DjVu files, offers some advanced tips and tricks.
I explain how a good open source application can exist quite nicely in a proprietary environment in Organize your information on the Mac desktop with nvALT. In this article, I discuss how to how to manage notes and more with this very useful tool. What makes nvALT all the more attractive to me is that plain text is at its core, so it's a solid fit for my workflow whenever I'm working in MacOS.
In Getting started with Pimcore: An open source alternative for product information management, Dietmar Rietsch introduces a tool for businesses of all sizes to manage, mold, and share data about their products. In the past, I worked for a company or two that specialized in this type of software. It's great to see an open source alternative that's as flexible, polished, and easy to use as its closed source cousins.
These articles give you a taste of the open source alternatives to proprietary software that are out there. Are there any substitutes for proprietary software that you think we should cover in the coming months? Feel free to leave a comment or, better yet, submit an article proposal.

I'm a long-time user of free/open source software, and write various things for both fun and profit. I don't take myself all that seriously and I do all of my own stunts.

About 50 workers, students, and community activists joined unemployed constituents to demonstrate for the extension of unemployment insurance outside of Rep. Coble's office on Thursday, December 8. For jobless North Carolinians and local communities hit hard by long-term unemployment, extended unemployment insurance is a lifeline that is set to expire at the end of December unless Congress takes action.

Our event Thursday was part of a nationwide mobilization to call attention to the ongoing jobs crisis and to urge Congress to take immediate action and extend unemployment benefits. If Congress fails to act by December 31, 69,700 unemployed North Carolinians will start the New Year losing the only thing keeping them and their families from falling into poverty.

Extended unemployment benefits are still necessary because we are obviously still in the middle of a jobs crisis. There are still more than four unemployed workers for every job opening. Nearly 14 million Americans are unemployed, and six million are receiving unemployment insurance. Long-term unemployment remains at record levels, with the average duration of joblessness now over 9 months and six million people—nearly 45% of the unemployed—being unemployed for six months or more. Congress has never before let federal extended benefits expire when labor market conditions were this bad.
Rep. Coble's staff first told Parnell, David, and John to call the D.C. office. "We've tried calling the D.C. office," said John. The staff then said that the Congressman has yet to make up his mind. "He's still gathering information," they were told.
"Please tell him we need him," replied Parnell.

Rep. Coble has a choice to make. Will he stand by Parnell, David, and other North Carolinians struggling to find work in an economy with four job seekers for every one job opening? Or will Rep. Coble focus on keeping tax cuts for the 1% who are not suffering?

Columbia County 5: Hollingsworth the New Chair. First Meeting Time Changed to 9:30 am. Public Notice & Comment – "What's That?"

By Stew Lilker
COLUMBIA COUNTY, FL – Last Thursday's meeting of the Columbia County 5 brought no surprise and a big surprise. With the meeting four minutes old, Commissioner Robby Hollingsworth (no surprise) was voted Chairman. Then, without any warning and any public input, The 5 changed its first monthly meeting time to 9:30 am.
Background: Rules – Regulations – Policies
What the County 5 Are Sworn to Uphold
In 2006, Columbia County became a Home Rule County when it approved its Charter. The County's last charter review cycle was in 2020.
On August 3, 2017, the County 5 passed resolution 2017R-23. This resolution approved the "Rules and Policies of the Board of County Commissioners." For the most part, Columbia County's rules are a carbon copy of the St. Johns County 2014 Rules and Policies.
On June 3, 2021, after an extensive rewrite of the Administrative Code by County Attorney Foreman, the revised County Administrative Code was adopted.
The Charter calls for the County 5 to set its yearly meeting schedule "on a date in December…which is established…in the County Administrative Code."
It's Organization Night
Thursday, December 2, At the County 5
Chairman Rocky Ford gaveled the meeting to order at 5:30 pm.
The revised Administrative Code is silent on which meeting in December shall be "Organization" night.
The first order of Commission business was electing a County Chairman and a Vice-Chair. They were already selected in the backroom.
Commissioner Rocky Ford (file)
Chairman Ford asked, "Can I get a nomination for the chairman?"
Commissioner Tim Murphy didn't miss a beat, "I nominate Robby Hollingsworth for service as next year's chair and myself as vice-chair."
Reporting on The 5 for sixteen years, this is the first time the Chairman and Vice-Chair have been nominated as a ticket. Commissioner Murphy is the first commissioner to nominate himself.
Commissioner Witt seconded the motion.
Without comment, the motion passed unanimously.
Then, veteran Commissioner Ronald Williams said, "Mr. Chairman, [I] move to recommend Tim Murphy for vice-chair."
County Attorney Foreman said, "He made that part of his motion. He put it in his first motion."
Commissioner Hollingsworth: Assuming the Chair - Not Yet
Commissioner Robby Hollingsworth (file)
No longer the Chairman, Commissioner Ford said, "I guess at this time we swap chairs?"
Commissioner Murphy, who has been attending Organization meetings for years, asked, "We got to do that in a resolution?"
No resolution is required to appoint the Chair and Vice-Chair.
Attorney Foreman answered, "Yeah. We need to do the scheduling resolution real quick. Then we'll do the swap."
County Attorney Foreman has been attending Organization Nights for six years.
Commissioner Hollingsworth was now the County Chairman. Commissioner Ford continued to run the meeting.
Commissioner Witt asked County Attorney Foreman, "You're gonna read it?" [the resolution setting the meeting times]
Mr. Foreman said, "We have two proposed resolutions."
There was some unintelligible conversation.
There were not two proposed resolutions. There was confusion.
A public record request revealed that on December 1, County Attorney Foreman came up with a resolution changing the meeting time from 5:30 pm to 9:00 am.
The resolution with the 9:00 am meeting time was not added to the agenda, nor was the public aware of it.
Setting the Agenda: The Rule
Setting the County meeting agenda is not rocket science, nor is it a great mystery. The process is laid out in the County Rules and Policies, first approved in 2017.
Rule 4.301, setting the agenda:
The County Manager must provide a tentative agenda to the Chair, who has the final say on the meeting agenda. Any commissioner or department director may request something be included on the agenda as long as it is presented eight days prior to the meeting with the associated backup material "sufficient to warrant discussion." The agenda is considered closed after the eight-day deadline except for emergency items, which the Chair may call.
After the County Chairman gives the agenda its final stamp of approval, it is posted on the County website on the Friday before the upcoming Thursday meeting.
The County 5 had a year from its last Organizational Meeting to add an item to the agenda to discuss changing the Board's meeting times and a week before the December 2 meeting to add a resolution to do it.
The County 5 Meeting Continues
Mr. Foreman read the resolution scheduling the County Commission meetings on the first and third Thursday of the month at 5:30 pm.
Commissioner Ford asked, "Can we get a motion for the resolution?"
Commissioner Murphy said, "So moved."
The next step would have been for the Chairman to ask for a second.
Neither Commissioner Ford (still running the meeting) nor Chairman Hollingsworth asked for a second.
The County Rules require a second to put the motion on the "table" for discussion and debate.
Commissioner Ronald Williams (file)
Commissioner Williams addressed no one in particular, "Question on the resolution. When did this Board vote to move the first Thursday meeting to nine o'clock?"
Commissioner Ford responded, "We're votin' on it right now."
County Attorney Foreman added, "The one as read has both meetings at five-thirty. The one as read is on the agenda."
Commissioner Ford asked, "So that resolution doesn't move the meeting to 9 o'clock?"
Mr. Foreman responded, "Adoption of the resolution as read, without amendment, would leave both meetings at 5:30."
County Manager David Kraus volunteered, "We were requested to prepare a second resolution that would move the first meeting to a morning meeting."
The 5 Should Have Added the Last Minute Resolution to the Agenda
Adding the competing resolution to the agenda would have been a simple matter, if anyone had thought of it.
With Chairman Hollingsworth sitting in the wings, Commissioner Ford continued to run the meeting, "Does anybody want to make a motion to move the meeting to the morning meeting?" he asked.
Commissioner Witt weighed in, "I think it's going to be exactly the same, only it's going to be a 9:30 time. I'll start with commenting. I really don't have a preference either way. I think the one meeting at 9:30; if you look at some of the largest employers in the County, the Department of Corrections, the healthcare sector -- a lot of those guys don't work daytime. There's a lot of night shift work. I think having one meeting during the day does two things: it allows people work at night an opportunity to participate in these meetings, too. It also allows for staff to participate while they're on duty and not have to stay late."
Commissioner Tim Murphy (file)
Mr. Witt added, "Most counties across the state that do have two meetings a month have a morning meeting, and an afternoon meeting is not uncommon. I'm good either way; I think 9:30 in the morning is a good idea."
Commissioner Williams weighed in, "I'm not for a morning meeting. We've tried morning meetings in the past. There's no public hearings can take place in a morning meeting… What we've found in the past is participation in morning meetings have not been adequate to keep them at a morning meeting, but this is up to the Board. They have never been a successful morning meeting since I've been a Commissioner. That's why they were moved to at night."
Commissioner Murphy volunteered, "I'll restate my motion just for clarification. I'll make the motion to accept the resolution as read, with all meetings being at 5:30. Me and Mr. Williams had the conversation many times about the unattendance. I'll stand by that motion."
Commissioner Williams said in the past people complained they needed to work and couldn't come to the meeting. "5:30 has been the most productive for participation."
County Attorney Foreman explained that some public hearings must be held after 5:00 pm and said that larger counties across the state follow the pattern of having a morning meeting and an evening meeting.
Commissioner Toby Witt (file)
Commissioner Witt: "I don't know if there is a motion and a second on the table."
Commissioner Ford: "There is."
Commissioner Witt: "Never mind, we can't do it."
The Clerk: "There is no second."
Commissioner Ford: "There's no second."
The County Rule concerning debate of a motion:
"No motion shall be debated or put to a vote without a second..."
Commissioner Witt: "Why don't we consider the split meeting first, so we don't vote the other one down? It sounds like "unintelligible." Why don't we consider the first one?"
Attorney Foreman: "You could ask Mr. Murphy to withdraw his motion. He's got it on the floor."
Commissioner Witt: "It will withdraw for lack of a second."
Attorney Foreman: "If it's not seconded."
Commissioner Murphy: "But I'll withdraw."
Commissioner Witt: "I'll make a motion that we do a 9:30 for the first meeting and a 5:30 for the second."
Commissioner Ford: "I've got a motion. Do I get a second?"
Commissioner Williams: "What was your motion?"
Commissioner Witt: "To do the morning meeting and the afternoon meeting."
Commissioner Ford: "Second?"
From the audio and personal attendance, it is impossible to hear who seconded the motion.
Your reporter checked with the Clerk and the County Manager. Neither could identify who seconded the motion.
Commissioner Ford: "Anymore discussion?"
There was none.
It was impossible to discern who voted against the motion other than Commissioner Williams.
While the vote sounded like it was 4-1, Commissioner Ford announced it as 3-2.
Neither the Clerk, nor the County Manager could identify who, other than Commissioner Williams, voted against the motion.
Commissioner Ford said they could change the meeting times if they didn't like them.
A plain reading of the Charter does not authorize the County 5 to change the meeting times, after they are approved, if they don't like them.
Commissioner Hollingsworth said he asked audience members before the meeting what they thought about a morning meeting time. There were only a handful of people reported at the meeting.
Mr. Hollingsworth finally took his seat as Chairman.
During all its discussion, The 5 never mentioned modifying the Resolution setting the meeting days and time.
There is another County 5 meeting on December 16. They have a chance to do it over the right way and get some public input.
Yesterday morning Chairman Hollingsworth said he will be reviewing the Rules of Proceedure. "I want to do things right," he said.

The Heat blew its precious home-court advantage in a 94-90 Game 5 loss to fall behind 3-2 in the seven-game series.
The questions about the lack of clutch plays and players will come thundering down on Heat heads, just as they did last season. Whether Miami can ignore the questions and withering criticism as it prepares for Game 6 will be key in determining whether they can win Game 6 on Thursday in Boston's extremely inhospitable GAH-den.
Miami squandered a comfortable lead inside AmericanAirlines Arena, which went from boisterous to stunned. Then, it allowed the score to ricochet back and forth in the fourth quarter. Big breakdowns followed big shots for both teams.
Yet when push came to shove as it so often has in this "good ol' bar fight" of a series, as Paul Pierce described it, the Celtics had the last punch. The Heat whiffed.
It was another entertaining, excruciating game. Fans' nerves are frayed. Players' legs are heavy. Coaches' brains are fried.
But this rivalry between the aging Big 3 of Boston and the dynamic Big 3 of Miami keeps on delivering irresistible drama.
It was closer than it should have been for the Heat, and then it was a loss it could not afford.
The Heat is 0-7 in these playoffs on game-winning or game-tying shots in the last 24 seconds of games. It has had to work frantically to dig out of 15-, 18- and 24-point holes in Games 2, 3 and 4, and lost two of those. Game 5 was different, at least for a while, because it was the Heat with the double-digit lead. By the time it got down to the last 9.4 seconds, the Heat was two points behind. Miami couldn't finish.
The pivotal shot Tuesday came from Pierce. He played chicken with LeBron James. He dribbled inch by inch closer to the three-point line as James crouched, ready to pounce. Then Pierce made his move, bounced off his feet and swished a three-pointer over James' outstretched hand for a 90-86 lead with less than a minute to go.
James drove right past Rajon Rondo and soared by Kevin Garnett to give Miami hope with his layup with 9.4 seconds left.
But Garnett, fouled by Udonis Haslem, nudged Boston's lead back to four with two free throws — extending Boston's free-throw accuracy to nine in a row and 81 percent for the game.
Wade missed a long three-pointer and the game was over. The series? Miami is now the underdog and must win Thursday to bring it back to Miami for a Saturday finale.
The NBA playoffs can turn on a dime. Witness Oklahoma City's three consecutive wins over the previously invincible San Antonio Spurs.
Boston got critical plays from Garnett, Pierce, Rondo, even Mickael Pietrus. Garnett blocked a shot by James. Rondo tipped a miss to Pietrus for a three-pointer.
Garnett scored 26 points, grabbed 11 rebounds, blocked two shots and altered many others. He looked to be in his scowling, sweating prime.
One good thing for Miami: When Chris Bosh returned after three weeks with a strained abdominal muscle, he got a standing ovation. He sank his second shot, a sweet left-handed turnaround, and the cheers shook the arena.
Feeding the ball to James was the most reliable strategy. As in the third quarter when James cut under the basket, then rebounded his own miss for a put-back.
But most of the second half was an anatomy of a collapse.
In the first half Heat dazed Boston early by blazing to a 13-point lead while holding the Celtics to 30 percent shooting and 16 points in the first quarter. But as the second quarter wore on, the Heat inexplicably eased off the accelerator, the Celtics closed the rebounding gap, and by halftime, the Heat's lead was a negligible two points.
Wade had another slow start, going 3 for 9, while James was unstoppable with 18 points and nine rebounds. Bosh gave the Heat a boost by scoring nine points in 10 minutes with six rebounds in the half.
"This is the journey we are on, for whatever reason," Spoelstra said.
It's going to take an incredible effort to pull this one out — just the kind of effort that will silence the questions and erase the doubts. If the Heat can't come back and beat Boston, it will never hear the end of it.


The women's basketball team did not let its 0-3 start to the season discourage them as it gained steam, winning two straight games last week by beating Cal State Bakersfield (2-2) 74-61 and Sacramento State (0-4) 78-44.
In the first game of the season in the newly-renovated Bren Events Center, the Anteaters had to fight back from an 11-point halftime deficit. The 'Eaters came out of the locker room blazing in the second half and scored 15 of the first 17 points, quickly giving them their first lead of the game. Cal State Bakersfield's Shawnee Carter hit a jumper to tie the game at 43 a-piece, but the 'Eaters responded with an 18-1 run that they would not look back from.
The Lady 'Eaters shot 45 percent for the game. They showed more patience and better shot selection in the second half, shooting 16 for 31 at 52 percent. Junior Kelly Cochran and senior Stephanie Duda dominated the game on the inside as both tallied a double-double. Cochran posted 15 points and 10 rebounds, while Duda tallied 10 points and 11 rebounds. Senior Miranda Forry led the team in scoring with 20 points.
On Saturday morning, the Sacramento State Hornets came to the Bren to challenge the Anteaters, but the 'Eaters were too hot for them. UC Irvine took an early 22-8 lead with eight minutes left in the first half. Duda once again dominated the boards despite injuring her left hand in the game with nine rebounds in the first half and 11 for the game. She recorded her third straight double-double. The Anteaters led by as many as 15 points in the first before a late 10-4 Sacramento State run led by Charday Hunt brought the Hornets within single digits at a 32-23 at halftime.
Not wanting to give the Hornets hope, the Lady' Eaters once again came out strong in the second half holding Sacramento State to only four points in the first 10 minutes of the second half while scoring 23 points. The early run was attributed to the Anteaters tightening up their defense while speeding up their fast-break offense.
The early second half run was led by senior Annie Mai, who came in for sophomore Rebecca Naessen after a hard foul left her shaken up. After a scoreless first half, Mai scored nine of the 'Eaters' first 13 points of the half, including a three-point shot and a couple of nice drives to the hoop.
'Annie Mai came off the bench and gave us a really good spark,' said Head Coach Molly Tuter.
Freshman Kim Barnes led in scoring with 16 points on 6-7 shooting and one block. Barnes also shot 4-4 from the free throw line, keeping her at a perfect 10-10 at the charity stripe for the season. Sophomore Keyonna Johnson tied her career-high with her second straight six-assist game. The 'Eaters shot a season-high 53 percent from the floor while keeping Sacramento State to just 26 percent shooting.
'I thought it was a great team effort from the first half to the second half. Everyone got significant time tonight, which was awesome,' stated senior Haley Tull.
After two home games at the Bren, UCI will travel to Washington to face Eastern Washington and Washington University. The team will miss the Bren, but it has unfinished business to take care of.

Q: CentOS Apache/PHP exec function does not finish executing external program I have tried and failed to understand why my command line program does not work in Apache environment using a PHP exec() function call.  Here is the scenario:

*

*Installed Apache 2.x and PHP 5.3.3 on CentOS 32-bit

*Hard-coded a php file called myScript.php that contains a simple call to exec() such as:
exec("./imageManipuator testImage.jpg 512 512 >& output.log &");
The exec() function should call my program with the given parameters to process the request, redirect output to a file "output.log" all in a background process defined by '&'.
I check the log and the program executes 1/4 way through the program and terminates without a clue why.
I tried executing the PHP file via PHP Interactive shell call via:
$ php myScript.php
The execution of the program completely finishes!!!  That brings me to feel:

*

*What is wrong with my Apache/PHP configuration to disallow my program to execute all the way.

*Perhaps a permission issue?  I tried changing the logged user as the Administrator user but it did not change anything.

*Perhaps a memory issue?  Shouldn't there be a warning or notification if a memory limit has been reached?  I have not verified this is the issue?
That is my issue.  I know I am using the function exec() correctly to execute the program in the background because the same script works when calling the same file via PHP Interactive shell.  What could be wrong in the Apache/PHP configuration that disallows my program to fully execute?
Any suggestions is a bonus as I have exhausted my ideas.


I've been gushing about the Creative D200 for quite some time now on this site and it is only appropriate that I do a complete, in-depth review of these excellent Bluetooth speakers. Since I've already devoted plenty of reams to its smaller sibling – the D100, I'll ignore it for now and focus entirely on the D200, which is among Creative's best offerings in the wireless speaker space.
Housed in a single, 19" long, sleek black case, the Creative D200 can certainly be given some points for its rather futuristic looks. At just 4.6lbs, this is a rather fleet footed Bluetooth speaker that is easy to toss into a car on a camping trip. Don't mistake it for one of those 'pocket' speakers (a la Monster Clarity or Sound matters foxLv2) though, measuring 18.8 x 4.9 x 5.1 inches.
The Creative D200 deserves full marks on this scale, since setting up the speakers is – to use a cliche – a breeze, provided you own a Bluetooth capable audio player. The speakers instantly recognize any Bluetooth enabled device and stream music within seconds. Perfect if you want to use these speakers with your iPhone or other Bluetooth capable phone/music player.
If you don't own a Bluetooth capable audio player, however, you can either use the built-in AUX port, or even shell out extra cash for a wireless Bluetooth adapter. The former, despite being more cost-effective, kills the entire purpose of using these speakers (wires!). The latter will set you back by almost $40, but is well worth the price if you plan to use a non-Bluetooth device as your primary music player.
This is the most important battleground, the fields where speakers are vanquished or crowned kings and emperors. What good is a speaker, after all, if it can't deliver pitch perfect audio, handle heavy bass, and deliver thick mid-tones without flailing (and failing)?
The younger sibling – Creative D100 – has certain issues with bass heavy songs and doesn't handle high tunes quite so effortlessly. Fortunately, the D200 doesn't suffer from the same issues and delivers rich, deep bass and quite clear high tones. We hooked up our iPhone Touch filled with 32GB of music, and threw everything from Enrico Morricone and the Kill Bill soundtrack to Justin Bieber and Danger Mouse's 'Grey Album' at it. We tried some Pavarotti, and even some Indian classical sitar music by Pandit Ravi Shankar.
Justin Beiber and his ilk would be quite happy. Regular pop doesn't really stretch the speakers and the D200 delivered a great performance. The Kill Bill soundtrack was rendered with admirable precision as well – not quite as good as our $600 Bose speakers, but impressive nonetheless.
Pavarotti caused some problems, and the humming of the classical Indian sitar wasn't quite clear at times. But these were more or less isolated cases and for regular use, the sound is more than adequately powerful and clear.
At just around $100, the Creative D200 Bluetooth speakers are certainly very affordable. Despite the light weight, these speakers aren't very portable on account of their large footprint. The design is clean and classic and will look good in any living room.
The sound quality is solid, nothing more, nothing less. You won't be blown away, but you wouldn't want to climb into a corner with your ears stuffed with cotton wool either.
Overall, for the price, these are a very 'sensible' pair of speakers (a word we don't use very often). Setup is easy and the sound quality is above average. For $107, you'll be hard pressed to find a more well-rounded set of wireless Bluetooth speakers than the Creative D200.
