rsyn is the best tool for mirroring servers and data. However, there is also mirrordir tool. As name suggest it can mirror directories and do lots of other things. It offers lots of options for die hard shell scripting fans. It can copy, mirror directory trees via a minimal set of changes, locally or over FTP, or over a secure tcp connection.
From the man page:
mirrordir copies files that are different between the directories control and mirror to the directory mirror. Files whose modification times or sizes differ are copied. File permissions, ownerships, modification times, access times (only if –access-times is used), sticky bits, and device types are duplicated. Symlinks are duplicated without any translation. Symlink modification and access times (of the symlink itself, not the file it points to) are not preserved. Hard linked files are merely copied.
mirrordir command supports strong stream cipher encryption and Diffie-Hellman key exchanges with several possible key sizes.
Install mirrordir
Use apt-get or ports system command:
$ sudo apt-get install mirrordir
mirrordir examples
Mirror ~/scripts to ~/scripts.backup:
$ mkdir ~/scripts.backup
$ mirrordir -v ~/scripts ~/scripts.backup
If you rerun mirrordir again, only the updated files are copied.
You can mirroring FTP sites:
$ mirrordir -v ftp://ftp.nixcraft.in/pub /home/backup/nixcraft.in/ftp/pub
mirrordir offers tons of option, refer mirrordir man page for more examples and options:
$ man mirrordir

MC Yogi
For a good time, sit next to the beat-happy, Krishna-crazed love magnet known as MC Yogi as he works his creative magic up in his Northern California studio, Photoshopping all kinds of dazzling personal India travel photos into wild collage art that will serve as backdrop for his "cosmic, electrifying" new shows with one hand, while simultaneously blasting tracks from his latest record, Pilgrimage, with the other.
Do this while Yogi casually spins the hip-hop, zig-zag, indie-flick story of his life to date. Do all this and be charmed, amazed and hooked.
"This record is the soundtrack to my journey to India, circling the sacred mountain Arunachala in the heart of Tamil Nadu, and discovering the intricate root system of yoga," Yogi says, eyes gleaming, as if casually describing the recipe to a funkified cocktail made of time and incense and God.
"It's a sonic trip, a journey toward the Self, toward what the yoga masters call the Supreme Soul," he adds, as chaotic street sounds of India blast through the speakers, mixing with madhouse beats, old-school turntable scratches and oh my Shiva those horns, with Yogi effortlessly rhyming over it all, and all of it so hook-laden and sun-blasted you can't help bobbing your head and aching to find a dance floor somewhere, preferably one with lots of Nag Champa and chanting.
The influences on Pilgrimage are all over the musical map. World beat, hip-hop, Bollywood, reggae, dancehall, house, dub. Indian tabla player and electronica producer Karsh Kale shows up on Shedding Skin, a track that serves as homage to one of Yogi's foremost teachers, the late Larry Schulz, and also features DJ Solomon, who passed in early 2012 laying the scratches and turntablism for what would be his final project. Death and rebirth, you might say, are prominent themes.
Then there are the world-renowned Indian musicians, from celebrated sitarist Deobrat Mishra of Benares to vocalist Mahesh Vinayakram (son of Grammy-winning Indian percussionist Vikku Vinayakram), all giving the record a rich, multi-instrumental feel like few others in hip-hop.
As for Yogi himself, the basics are easy enough: he was born the same year as the Sony Walkman and the Cray supercomputer, 1979. He has a beautiful, powerhouse wife named Amanda with whom he co-teaches yoga in their sumptuous little studio in Northern California. A rescued pit bull, Mahatma, is the couple's personal guru.
Yogi himself is as devoted a practicioner and truth-seeker as you'll find anywhere. He reads the Bhagavad Gita every day, follows Gandhi's humble practice of not speaking a word on Mondays. The rest of the time is split between creating art, running the couple's yoga studio, and of course, the music.
Here's where the story gets…colorful. A tranquil early childhood was cut short by a surprise family implosion that led Yogi to all kinds of messy rebellion: dropping out of school, graffiti punkdom, pre-teen drug abuse, stealing cars, lashing out at everyone and everything and not quite knowing why. Hey, it happens.
It all led to the honor of being kicked out of no less than four schools by the time he was 17 before finally, by way of an unexpected introduction to yoga and classical Hindu philosophy, a complete rediscovery of self, of the yogic path, of the true meaning of music, love and the million faces of God.
Wait, not done yet. Mix in all manner of pop culture influence: The Doors, the Beatles, the Beastie Boys, Lee "Scratch" Perry, Star Trek, Star Wars and Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, classic comic books and lots of wonderfully insane Bollywood movies. Overlay it all with a preternatural gift for rhyming, and you've got a story for the alterna-rap record books.
"I'm just a working class mystic," shrugs the enviably laid back Yogi, grinning a little as he adjusts his trademark fedora, kicks up his Adidas and cranks the volume on "Born to Fly," an instantly addictive new track from Pilgrimage, one of those bouncy dub-rap songs that's so catchy it can stick in your head for a year. But in a good way.
Do not be fooled. Mellow though he may appear, when it comes to the music and the art, Yogi is positively supercharged with a love of message like few others on the yogic path, and probably no other hip-hop musicians you can name. And Pilgrimage proves it.
And not a moment too soon. Yogi's 2008 shoestring-budget debut, Elephant Power, still floats atop the world music chart on iTunes. Problem is, he wrote most of that one way back in 2005. And while Elephant Power's extraordinary success brought Yogi invitations to play in dance clubs and yoga festivals all over the world (and still does), the time has come for the next phase.
And Pilgrimage is definitely it. "Everything went into this record," says Yogi, shaking his head in amazement — meaning the travel, the teaching, the years of yoga study, tirelessly honing his craft on stages large and small, ever improving upon his powerhouse mix of hip-hop and yoga lore. The ultimate goal? "A full, authentic, transformative yogic experience…on the dance floor."
Wait. Hip-hop and yoga? The Ramayana with a backbeat? Stories of Shiva and Shakti, Ganesh and Hanuman and the rest of the ancient Hindu gods, all funked up and slamming up against potent, propulsive graffiti beats custom built to drive eager listeners into a divine frenzy? It'll never work. Unless it does.
Unless it works so well you wonder why no one's thought of it before. The truth is, you've never heard anything like Pilgrimage. You've never heard anyone like MC Yogi. Together they just may change the world. All over again. Article written by Mark Morford.

The TrackABus service uses Global Positioning System (GPS) hardware and wireless communications technology to track the real-time location of buses. This lets you use your computer, cell phone, smartphone or other tech device to get information about when the next bus will arrive at your stop, even if you are still at home, the office, shopping, or dining.
TrackABus is available using a desktop website, a mobile website (which can also be used as an accessibility-friendly text-only desktop website) on iPhone, Android, BlackBerry, or other smartphones. Dedicated iPhone and Android apps are under development. For instructions on how to use each version of TrackABus visit the Help Pages.
Please note that the TrackABus NZ service for Whangarei is simulated tracking data based on publicly available timetable information.
The TrackABus NZ service is based on the great work of the OneBusAway New York and OneBusAway teams. We would like to thank all the hard work of the people who have worked on the various OneBusAway projects, without which our real time information service would not be possible.
Special thanks are needed for the OneBusAway New York City team at MTA BusTime. The BusTime team developed the particular real time solution that is the bedrock of the TrackABus service. We would also like to thank the developers at the MTA, Cambridge Systematics, Open Plans Transportation and the wider OneBusAway community who have helped us launch this service with their time and knowledge - we hope they will be pleased to see their work helping get real time information to towns and cities across New Zealand.

Read Gabriel's Story
Twinkle of Light
On July 19, 2012, I lost a baby, a sweet boy named Gabriel. His loss has been my greatest pain, just as his life has been my greatest joy. Ever since our baby left us, I have found new beauty in the world. I have come to believe that when children depart this earth, they leave imprints of beauty all around, little symbols to remind us they were once here, and though their souls are in Heaven, remnants of their precious spirits will always surround us.

Hello friends!
Once again, I am so sorry for the delay in posting. Life happens, you know…
Last month, my friend Catherine invited me to be on her vlog and talk about the things I create. We had a blast, as we usually do and I told her that I would open my Etsy shop soon. Well, today is the day! No joke! (Yes I know it's April Fools Day but I really am serious!) So far, I only listed 3 things but there will be more very soon. I just need to take photos of my items.
And I know I've said it before but I will definitely be back to blogging on a more regular basis. I miss it a lot. And I keep forgetting to post about this:
Pay it Forward
I commented on the lovely Viv's blog and now it's my turn to spread the love. (Do visit her blog: she is talented and so are her boys.)
The first five commenters (who want to participate) on this post will receive, from me, during the year of 2013, something hand made in the mail.
I can't say when it will be (but it will be this year)
I can't say what it will be (but it will be something I have made – a card, collage, fabric postcard, small gift…)
In return, you pay it forward by offering the same deal to five other people.
Let's spread crafty mail loveliness all over this world, and brighten each others days!

My mom had my blog all bound into a book for me! It is one of the coolest gifts I have ever been given- sort of like having your journal published! On the other hand, in the 9 months I've been at this blogging thing, my book was over 200 pages. So from that, I've learned that maybe I talk (or type) a bit too much!
The craziness started on Thursday when my mom and I took the boys to the zoo! They had so much fun. All the baby animals were out in force. Our zoo just had a new little baby gorilla born a few weeks ago and we actually got to see it (and miraculously- I was able to get a great picture of it through the glass without all the slimey kid fingerprints showing up!!)
Then, that evening, I got to go to an advocacy training program for the ONE campaign. They give you opportunities to get in front of your elected officials to urge them to create policies to fight global poverty. I LOVE this organization. They are completely bipartisan and work to help educate people and congressional leaders about poverty, AIDS, malaria, women's rights issues, etc. and what we can do to create change! I can't wait to sit down with my congressman and give my spill about the DRC to someone who actually has the power to create policies to change it!
Miles and I squeezed in a lunch with the Iowa cousins that we haven't seen in years!
And somewhere in the middle of all this, I made my first attempt at Congolese cooking. I made Moambe, which was really good but had WAY to much peanut butter in it. When I make it again, I'll halve the peanut butter and double the tomato. It looked like this:
Sadie and Noah are not adventurous eaters, so I knew this was never going to fly as it was. So I scooped up their food and rolled it all into a tortilla and they gobbled it up! Miles, on the other hand, loved it just as it was...
The next day, Sadie and I had a girl's day out. Since Miles came home, we've been very intentional in making sure that all of the kids still get one on one time with us. Sadie is a shopaholic. She is so into fashion and accessories so she chose to go to the mall and pick out the new spring/summer wardrobe. I know I've said that I never buy my kids things that are new because they just cost too dang much. BUT- I just have to take a minute to brag here. We shopped the power-hours on Saturday morning. We used coupons and bought only the things that were on sale. We bought over $400 worth of clothes for all three kids and only ended up paying $116 for all of it. Cha-Ching! When we checked out, the sales lady said, "You saved over $300!" To which Sadie, my little savvy companion says, "That's great savings mom! Dad's gonna be really proud of us!" (And he was!) And now the kids are set for a loooong time! Here we are posing it up in the middle of the mall.
I love Easter. I love the whole sense of the holiday. I love that when I look around church I don't know who 2/3 of the people are because I think- at least for today, they heard about my Jesus. Our school system in on spring break this week, so my Sunday school class full of teenagers was sparse. I only had three adorable teenage boys. And if you know anything about teenage boys, they do NOT discuss. So I threw my whole lesson out the window because I knew that with the audience I had, I wouldn't get anywhere. So I pulled out the Bible and just read to them, out loud. I read them the entire account of the Easter story. I think so many times as Christians, we focus on Easter on the "He is Risen" part and we don't really stop to reflect about all the sacrifice that led up to that beautiful morning. So I sat there and read and read and read...and those boys had the most thoughtful things to say after it and actually asked if we could do the same thing next week with an account from each of the gospels so they could figure out how to piece together the WHOLE Easter story. I was floored. Every now and then, you do actually get through to them. Can I get an amen!!!!
Then there was Easter lunch with the family and the Easter egg hunt with the cousins.
Just in case Easter wasn't awesome enough already, we all loaded into my uncle's truck and drove to the back of the farm to visit the horses. Sadie and Noah love the horses! I do to!
Easter night we had a visit from Aunt Kennethia who brought new bubbles. Miles drank quite a bit of the bubble solution. A few times he opened his mouth and a bubble just popped out!
We were so busy yesterday that Miles couldn't help but crash on GranMary's lap.
And now, after all of the chaos of the last few days, we are ready to celebrate Spring break by doing absolutely nothing but playing and sleeping! Yippee!

Exploring Science Through Underwater Robotics
The Center for Innovation in Engineering and Science Education at Stevens is leading a National Science Foundation initiative to improve K-12 STEM skills and education through fun summer camps and educator institutes.
Hoboken, NJ, July 27, 2011 --(
)-- Across the country this summer, middle and high school students are making a splash by discovering science and engineering while building programmable robots to accomplish underwater missions. "WaterBotics," an innovative program developed at Stevens Institute of Technology by the Center for Innovation in Engineering and Science Education (CIESE), is a fun activity that engages kids to solve real-world problems and attracts interest in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).
"We are living in an age when knowing how to create new knowledge and what to do with it can create a healthier, safer, and more prosperous planet," says Dr. George Korfiatis, Stevens Provost and University Vice President. "Scientists, engineers, and technologists are providing the fuel to power the enterprises of this and future generations."
WaterBotics is part of a $2.5 million National Science Foundation program to increase the pool, persistence, and diversity of students who pursue STEM study and careers. Expanding from its initial testing grounds in New Jersey, summer camps and educator institutes are happening this summer at sites in Dayton, Ohio, Chicago, Illinois, and in Austin and throughout Texas. "Our partners in this national scale up project are bringing their own expertise and engaging their networks of teachers and out-of-school educators to deliver the WaterBotics curriculum to girls and underrepresented youth in four regions this summer and during the next school year," says Beth McGrath, CIESE Executive Director and Principal Investigator of the NSF program.
Using LEGO and Mindstorms equipment, WaterBotics students work in teams to rapidly prototype, design, and program underwater robots to accomplish a series of "missions" in an 8 foot diameter pool. Building robots that can swim, grab objects, and navigate obstacles introduces concepts like buoyancy, stability, and gears, and engineering skills such as design, through the facilitation of trained educators. In addition to these science and engineering concepts, students learn 21st century skills, such as teamwork, problem-solving, and critical thinking, as they build and improve their underwater robot designs.
"Also embedded in this NSF grant is professional development for educators that introduces the value of project-based, open-ended, and hands-on learning," says Dr. Susan Lowes, the project evaluator and Director of Research and Evaluation at the Institute for Learning Technologies at Teachers College, Columbia University. Practitioners will take these new educational strategies back to STEM classrooms and after school programs for the next school year and beyond. "At every workshop, educators tell us how excited they are to use these methods in their own programs and classes," says Karen Peterson, CEO of EdLab Group and Principal Investigator, National Girls Collaborative Project.
CIESE data demonstrate that students not only learn key science and engineering concepts, but also show increased interest in technology careers as a result of these workshops. "WaterBotics make it easy for participants to see how underwater robots can solve real problems, like controlling oil spills, monitoring our coral reefs, and exploring shipwrecks," says Peterson. "This context especially helps girls and other students typically underrepresented in STEM fields visualize themselves in science and engineering careers."
WaterBotics also promotes immediate STEM learning by hosting programs on college campuses through collaboration with the League for Innovation in the Community College. "Washington is telling us that we need more students in STEM programs and, subsequently, choosing technology careers. By using community colleges as the sites for these workshops, middle and high school students begin thinking about their own futures as college students in these programs," says Dr. Edward Leach, Vice President for Services and Programs and Director of the STEMtech conference at the League.
Partners in this NSF-sponsored initiative include: Stevens Institute of Technology, the League for Innovation in the Community College, the National Girls Collaborative Project, the Texas Girls Collaborative Project at the University of Texas at Austin, the Kentucky Girls STEM Collaborative at the University of Kentucky, Sinclair Community College in Dayton, Ohio, and Triton College in River Grove, Illinois. Teachers College at Columbia University and Evaluation & Research Associates are the program's external evaluation and research partners.

(CBS News) On Thursday, when Facebook announced the first major redesign of its popular News Feed, the announcement was the culmination of one long year of work by 70 engineers and designers.
Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg said, "News Feed is one of the most important services that we build."
Product marketing manager Kate O'Neill has been logging long days trying to get things just right.How to get Facebook's redesigned News Feed
"News Feed hasn't changed very much since 2006, when it started, and this is just really about making News Feed more enjoyable for people," she said. "We just don't have the option of not moving forward, not modernizing and making the experience better."
At least, that was the message from Facebook members. The social network surveyed hundreds of thousands of users, and many responded with the same request.
Jane Justice Leibrock and her team of researchers also conducted dozens of face to face interviews on the Facebook campus to get feedback from users.Facebook launches News Feed redesign
"The number one thing that people said they wanted to see was a News Feed that was less cluttered," said Leibrock. "The clutter was this feeling that there was all this different type of news mixed together."
One of the users Leibrock's team met with was Alex Liu. He's been on Facebook since 2004 and says he's "addicted to it".
Liu said his biggest complaint about the social networking site was that he wished "the things that came through on my Facebook feed were just the people that I cared about. I wish I could not see all these different things."
Satisfying heavy users involves a lot of heavy lifting, and that task falls on Facebook's vaunted engineers, like Chris Struhar.Facebook co-founder: Rapid growth is its "biggest risk"
"We've been working on this for about a year, working 12-16 hour days just sitting in front of our computers and writing code and throwing together these prototypes," Struhar said.
Zuckerberg and vice president of product Chris Cox were updated weekly, and the final result is a News Feed that takes up a larger part of the screen, with bigger pictures and content, while moving everything else to the side.
"Any time that you have a billion people using a product, and many of those people using it every day, you're going to see a diversity of opinion. We know that change can be difficult for people. We're taking a very measured approach here," O'Neill said.
For Facebook, a measured approach means rolling out the News Feed to only a fraction of its users, which still means that several million people are experiencing what 70 Facebook employees have devoted the last year of their lives to creating.
"It's not a question of huge budgets or lots of people, it's a question of really, really focused effort over a year for a very small group of people that did this design," said O'Neill. "But we're just so glad to be at a place where we can start releasing it to people and seeing how they're using it and how they feel about it."

The rest of the lessons that I will be submitting today are all chibi based which means for the remainder of the day, all you will be smothered with is chibi characters. Let's start off by learning "how to draw chibi Death Note", step by step. The character I used for the main image is of course Light Yagami. Light is the main protagonist of the anime, and manga series. The whole story centers around a seventeen year old boy that finds the Death Note, which was dropped by Ryuk who is the main Shinigami of the series. Light uses Death Note for his own pleasure by killing off criminals, and all the scum on the streets. Other characters of the series include Misa Amane, L, Near, Mello, and of course the various Death Gods. The chibi version of Light came out wicked cute. I really love how he looks with his shirt and tie, as he holds the apple in his hand. For those of you that don't know the significance of the apple that chibi Light is holding, I will fill you in on the 411 now. Light gives Ryuk apples every once in a while because the Shinigami love apples. Now, the Death Note that Light carries belongs to Ryuk. The only reason why Ryuk doesn't take it back is because he likes watching humans do stupid stuff. Anyway, if you're a fan of Death Note, you will fall in love with this tutorial because not only will you "draw chibi Light", you will essentially be learning "how to draw chibi Death Note" at the same time. I only have two more submissions coming up for the day, so stay tuned in to see what they are going to be. For those of you that watched me draw live for the past couple of days, you probably already know what chibi characters I'm about to submit. Peace peeps, and happy drawing!

Capsule wardrobe: the only pieces you need in your work wardrobe
Time for a pop quiz!
A) Are you struggling to get ready for work every morning?
B) Are you finding that top doesn't go with those pants?
C) Are you staring blankly at your wardrobe and nothing is happening?
If you answered yes to one or all of these questions, you're suffering from a serious case of nothing-to-wearitis. But don't worry, there's a solution. We're going to strip it down, take it back to basics and hit reset on your workwear. How? It's called a capsule wardrobe - a handful of versatile, interchangeable items that can be mixed and matched to your heart's content.
Your Capsule Wardrobe
Your capsule wardrobe can always slightly differ to someone else's, because of your own personal style (maybe you wear dresses almost everyday, or absolutely hate wearing pants!) but try to use this one as a guide:
Dresses x 2 - a black one and a printed one
Jackets x 2-3 - include a longer coat, short jacket and a tailored vest
Tops x 3 - such as crisp shirts, shell tops, blouses and lace tops for desk-to-dinner purposes
Pants x 2 - a flare or wide-leg trouser, plus a cigarette pant will give you options
Skirts x 2 - a black one and something a bit more fun. Don't be afraid to play with your lengths!
Basics - ensure your wardrobe has a few good quality tees, singlets and tights
Accessories - finish your look with black and brown handbags and shoes that go with everything!
Pictured, top to bottom: Stretch Zip Front Peplum Jacket, Gathered Sleeve Stretch Pencil Dress, Soft Tile Print Viscose Top, Melange Cape Jacket, Angled Panel Stretch Slim Pant, Crepe Frill Sleeve Shift Dress, Asymmetric Panelled Tweed Skirt, Button Detail Peplum Top, Midnight Botanical Stretch Pencil Skirt, Long Sleeve Top with Frills, Melange Check Pant, all from Cue.
Six Outfits to Get You Started
The whole point of a capsule wardrobe is that all of the pieces can be worn together, so you never run out of outfits, but here are six of my favourite combinations to get you started... with some beautiful optical glasses from OPSM to complete the look!

Ricky Martin announced that he was gay in March, saying, "I am proud to say that I am a fortunate homosexual man," and his fellow stars voiced their support for the singer at the 21st annual Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) Media Awards in Century City, Calif. on Saturday.
Access Hollywood spoke to a slew of celebrities who praised Ricky for coming forward and expressed hope that others would follow in his footsteps.
"My lofty goal in this world is that we can live in a world that doesn't judge each other, I just want people to be able to live their lives that are true to them," Drew Barrymore told Access backstage at the GLAAD Awards. I celebrate what [Ricky] is doing because, we have to create a world for each other where acceptance is first and foremost."
"American Idol" Season 8 runner-up Adam Lambert hopes Ricky's bravery will inspire other LGBT celebrities to be more open.
"It's great to see people like [Ricky] feeling liberated to come out and come forward, and hopefully it will open the door wide open for more and more people to be comfortable with who they are," he told Access on the red carpet.
Rob Halford, openly gay singer for heavy metal act Judas Priest, believes Ricky's actions will help the gay Latino community.
"I think Ricky was really eloquent with the statement he made about the reason why he held back," he explained to Access on the red carpet. "At the end of the day you're dealing with a very personal and private issue… What he did was incredibly important for himself and the Latino community."
"Modern Family's" Sofia Vergara echoed others' sentiments, saying, "It shouldn't be an issue any more, but it's hard to change things. He's fantastic."
Wanda Sykes applauded the singer, but also said she wasn't surprised with his news.
"It's not like we didn't know Ricky was gay, come on!" She joked. "But good for him, I wish him well, I'm very happy for him."

While most of what actually airs on ESPN First Take is unwatchable trash, the show's web content occasionally comes through with evidence there's at least a few people behind the scenes with self-awareness.
Take, for example, this homage to the 1978 film Animal House. All that's missing is Stephen A. Smith shrugging a "Sorry!" before walking away and it would be pitch-perfect. Oh, and some flowers in Skip Bayless's hair—though that's something we presume Skip keeps to his personal life. [First Take]

This series captures the energy of the human body within the architecture of our urban environments, seeing these spaces as a playground. Our urban environments are so controlled where every movement is restricted in one way or another - I want to break down these barriers. This series is about far more than athletes, bricks and mortar. Architecture comes alive offering a never-ending set of challenging surfaces and spaces to those willing enough to explore them.
Shot in city centers, abandoned graffiti soaked warehouses and deserted car parks. The series aims to push the visual energy of Parkour & Freerun, not only in the motion of their bodies but with light play on particles exploding within the scene – all created 'in camera'.

text: I'm running ISPConfig 3 on CentOS 5.X. I have several Web sites served from the same box and want to enable Web directory protection via the .htaccess/.htpasswd mechanism for just one of these sites. I don't want to enable it (or only as a last resort) by global use of .htaccess using AllowOverride in Apache's main httpd.conf file in the /etc/httpd/conf directory. Question: In which Web site (vhost) specific configuration file should I use the AllowOverride directive for it to correctly password protect the Web site's root directory? The .htaccess file will be placed in the root directory of the specific Web site. That is: /var/www/clients/client2/web13/web. However, I've tried changing the AllowOverride directive in several locations without success. As far as I can tell from the httpd.conf file, all of the pre-requisite Apache modules are being loaded via httpd.conf for .htaccess protection to work.

02-04-2013, 06:59 PM (This post was last modified: 02-04-2013, 07:04 PM by middlefinger.)
Quote:President Obama on Monday tried to undercut National Rifle Association leaders and appeal directly to their membership, claiming gun owners support the "common-sense" gun control measures he's proposed — and urging those supporters to "keep the pressure" on Congress.
The president spoke in Minnesota, in his first campaign-style stop as part of a second-term push for new firearms laws.
On the other side of that debate, the NRA has aggressively argued against Democrats' call for a new and stronger assault-weapons ban, a ban on high-capacity magazines and universal background checks. But in a risky move, the president used his speech Monday to try and sideline America's most powerful gun lobby.
"The overwhelming majority of gun owners think (universal background checks are) a good idea," Obama said, referring to recent polling that shows most gun owners support background checks at gun shows and for private sales.
"So if we've got lobbyists in Washington claiming to speak for gun owners saying something different, we need to go to the source and reach out to people directly.
"We can't allow those filters to get in the way of common sense," Obama said.
He urged the public to call Congress and voice support for the proposals.
The NRA is unlikely to be drowned out. The group has vocally come out against universal background checks, saying that while they've supported such a system in the past, the overall process is too flawed. The group claims a universal background check system will put gun buyers through needless hassle, with little in the way of results.
It's the "BILL OF RIGHTS" not the bill of "needs"

Learning about Arctic Ocean circulation & ice thickness by gravity
A combination of new satellite-derived datasets is providing an exciting opportunity to peer through the sea-ice cover to study circulation patterns in the Arctic Ocean (Forsberg et al., 2006). A better understanding of what's going on beneath the ice will, in turn, lead to a more accurate interpretation of sea-ice thickness data from CryoSat-2.
The new estimates of Arctic Ocean mean dynamic topography have been compiled through a combination of satellite altimetry data from ERS, Envisat and ICESat, and a revised geoid model based on surface, submarine, airborne and satellite gravity field data from the US-German GRACE mission.
With the forthcoming launch of ESA's gravity mission GOCE (Gravity Field and Steady-State Ocean Circulation Explorer) next year, the current estimates of ocean dynamic topography are likely to improve since GOCE will address a completely new range of spatial scales. Its data will provide a model of the Earth's gravity field with unprecedented accuracy and resolution.
Satellite radar altimetry data has been used for more than a decade to map the height of the sea surface, which is not actually as flat as one might think. Although invisible to the eye, the sea surface has ridges and valleys that echo the topography of the ocean floor combined with mass anomalies of the Earth interior, in several places of the order of tens of metres. For example, the effect of the slight increase in gravity caused by the mass of an undersea mountain attracts extra water over it, causing a 'bulge' in the sea surface. Similarly, the reduced gravity over trenches in the sea floor means there is less water held over these regions, so the height of the sea-surface is depressed.
Therefore, in the absence of winds, tides and currents, the sea-surface would follow this surface of equal gravitational potential, known as the geoid. A precise model of the Earth's geoid – using GOCE data - is crucial in deriving accurate measurements of ocean circulation and sea-level change, both of which are affected by climate change However, there will be a hole in the data coverage that GOCE will provide since GOCE will not fly directly over the poles. In order to create a truly global geoid, gravity information near to and over the poles must be provided by other means.
Since 1998, the Arctic Gravity Project (ArcGP), which has been supported by organisations from ten different countries, has been collecting data to compile a gravity grid of the Arctic region. These data have been acquired through surface, airborne and submarine data. Supplemented with some ERS and ICESat altimetry data, the most recent gridded gravity data set resulting from the Arctic Gravity Project has just been released.
Altimetry data from the Arctic region has been accumulated since the launch of ERS-1 in 1991. These data are used to derive the average Arctic Ocean surface topography, known as the mean sea surface (MSS). Currently this serves as the basis for deriving important geophysical information from the altimetry data. For instance, the mean dynamic topography (MDT) of the Arctic Ocean may be calculated from the difference between the mean sea surface and the geoid.
Mark Drinkwater, ESA's GOCE and CryoSat-2 mission scientist explains, "The MDT is the direct consequence of the ocean circulation in the Arctic basin. For the first time we are able to see through the ice to understand the details of the dynamics within the ocean beneath. Features observed in the MDT highlight the inflow of warm Atlantic waters into the Arctic, together with the location of the Beaufort gyre and details of bathymetrically-steered circulation patterns. Since the Earth's gravity field and geoid are ever changing, the forthcoming GOCE mission will allow us to obtain an improved and more detailed quantitative knowledge of the geoid, and corresponding MDT. Moreover, the details of the shape of the ocean surface are required in order to effectively retrieve sea-ice thickness from future CryoSat data."
The results of the ArcGICE study (Forsberg et al., 2006) show how data from different space missions can work together to improve our knowledge of the Earth system and climate change connected with the cryosphere at high latitudes. The important synergy between GOCE and CryoSat-2 missions is also highlighted in this context.

Baylor's new look: Lots of wins, top talent and playing for titles
WACO, Texas—It's easy to forget now, easy to explain away as a pause instead of a defining moment.
Three years ago, Baylor was without a home. Three years ago, Baylor's best hope to stay relevant in the fluid and frenetic world of conference expansion was Conference USA. Or the now defunct Big East. Or going it alone as an independent.
MORE: Midseason All-America team | Memorable BCS moments | Top rivalries
"Our summer of discontent," says Baylor president Ken Starr.
Now look: drive south down I-35, roll up one of those rare hills in Central Texas and see what Art Briles built rise before your eyes. The new $200 million Baylor Stadium hits you that quick, a microcosm of where this program has been—and how quickly it now jumps on you.
What was once a joke of a program and a dead-end job with 14 straight losing seasons, is the new craze in college football. What was once an afterthought when heavyweight Texas was deciding its conference future three years ago—and wasn't taking Baylor along for the ride—is now the very program poised to revel in the irony of that Bevo-sized arrogance.
Baylor is winning big. Baylor has superstar players. Baylor is ranked in the top 12. Baylor is smack in the middle of the national championship race.
And—isn't this just a poetic kick in the Longhorn shorts?—Baylor's coach is the one Texas will covet once this season ends.
"I guess the idea is if you're going to build something," Briles says, "it might as well stick out so everyone can see it."
He was talking about the new stadium. He may as well have been talking about this growing, growling program that has gone from unwanted to unrivaled in the Big 12 in about three years.
Since that first summer of Texas flirting with the Pac-12 (and making decisions on who would and wouldn't go with), Baylor has more Big 12 victories than the Longhorns. Since that first summer. Baylor has a Heisman Trophy winner and is now on its third record-setting quarterback from the state of Texas the Longhorns failed to recruit.
Robert Griffin III was so good and so dynamic in Briles' wide-open offense, he won the Heisman despite the program's lack of name recognition. Nick Florence came along a year later and rewrote the school's record books.
And now we give you Bryce Petty, the fourth-year junior who was told by Briles three years ago (see how everything lines up?) that he had his quarterback until 2013. So Petty waited his turn, got his opportunity and is putting together a season for the ages.
He's also zeroing in on accomplishing what no other Baylor quarterback has done: lead the Bears to the Big 12 Championship—and maybe much more.
"We dream big like everyone else," Petty said. "The difference now is, we're set up to actually accomplish it."
This, of course, should come as no surprise. It was Briles, the longtime Texas high school coach, who took over his alma mater Stephenville High School, turned around the program and led it to four state championships.
It was Briles who took over a moribund Houston program, which was 0-11 the season before he arrived in 2002, and led the Cougars to a Conference USA championship and four bowl appearances.
He arrived at Baylor in 2008, and told everyone who would listen – including elite recruits Griffin and All-American wideout Kendall Wright – they needed faith, hope and vision. Faith in themselves, hope they could make a difference, and vision to see if done right, Baylor could be the perfect place.
"I wanted mavericks," Briles said. "Guys who would walk down a path no one had ever been down. It was out there if you wanted to go get it."
That's just what they've done, turning the world's largest Baptist university—but strictly regional sports entity—into a booming national sports brand. What better way to explain the presence of Baylor in college sports than to draw a picture with Nike.
Yes, Nike; the global sports apparel giant that had a significant hand in elevating Oregon—once a Pac-10 bottom feeder—to the elite level of college sports. Just this past year, Nike moved Baylor to its upper-tier of marketing.
"We traditionally had been lower-tier with (Nike)," said Baylor athletic director Ian McCaw said. "That shows a direct correlation to winning."
And that doesn't happen without Briles' fingers in everything football. From Griffin's magical season, to the fun, fast offense Briles produces.
MORE: Week 8 picks | Week 8 photos | Heisman watch | Bowl projections
Now it's Baylor running fast and zooming around in those funky uniforms. Now it's Baylor many are calling the Oregon of the southwest.
"I like to think Oregon," Briles says, "is the Baylor of the Northwest."
That's how you win big, everyone. You think big, you act big and everyone eventually believes. Then it's contagious.
When Briles arrived in Waco in 2008, he said he had seven players who were legit Big 12 athletes. Now he says he has a roster full of them.
There are more potential first round NFL draft picks on the Baylor offense than there are on the Texas roster. There's tailback Lache Seastrunk, guard Cyril Richardson, left tackle Spencer Drango, wideout Antwan Goodley and Petty.
Of all the wild and unthinkable offensive numbers created by this edition of the Briles' machine, nothing stands out more than Petty's 14.87 average yards per pass attempt. The number is monstrous.
The NCAA doesn't have single season yards per attempt records, but Griffin's 10.68 yards per attempt in 2011 was the best in FBS since at least 2000. Any move of percentage points (not full points) is significant—and Petty is more than four full points ahead of Griffin's number.
And just to stick it to Texas one more time—since, you know, Texas tried to stick to Baylor three years ago—the Longhorns' current yards per attempt for quarterbacks David Ash and Case McCoy is less than half (7.22) Petty's number.
"Everybody was worried about our new quarterback," Seastrunk said. "Really? You would think people would get it by now."
If not, they will soon enough.
That's one-time castoff Baylor, forcing everyone to take notice. That's longtime nobody Baylor, acting and playing like the somebody Briles always knew they could be.
We're nearly a full year from the opening of the new Baylor Stadium on the banks of the Brazos River, and already the stadium, field and bridge leading the stadium have secured naming rights. They've sold six founders suites at $10 million each, 39 premium suites at $1-3 million each, and 80 loge boxes and 1,200 club seats are sold out.
Meanwhile, in the here and now, Baylor is unbeaten and if all goes as planned, will be playing host to—seriously, how perfect is this? – Texas on Dec. 7 to win the Big 12 and, who knows, maybe a spot in the biggest game of all.
"This is what Art has created," McCaw said. "He has turned Baylor into a destination job."
Might as well stick out so everyone can see it.

HONOLULU (AP) Dustin Johnson withdrew Friday after nine holes at the Sony Open because of the flu.
Johnson was coming off a four-shot win last week in the Tournament of Champions at Kapalua, which started Monday and raced to a 54-hole finish a day later because of high wind.
He opened with a 70 at Waialae and was 3 over on the front nine - at least four shots away from making the cut - when he informed tournament officials that he was too ill to continue.
Johnson had a chance this week to join Ernie Els as the only players to sweep the two Hawaii tournaments at the start of the year. Els won both in 2003.

A miracle occurred in this house this week. The boy child has been sleeping. It was quite an ordeal the first few nights, but he slept!
Since coming home from Africa, Miles had been sleeping either on the living room floor or on the floor next to my bed since he has some crazy aversion to his crib. For a tiny bit of time, this was an okay situation while he was trying to learn the layout of our house, etc. But when that tiny bit of time expired, he took to wandering around the house at night and getting up about every 5 minutes and causing quite a ruckus. Not to mention the fact that he (and I) were just plain exhausted, sometimes causing the following:
The situation sometimes got dire and I have ended up with backaches galore from sleeping on the living room floor and the kid is cranky. I'm not even Catholic and I'd started throwing up Hail Mary's in the hopes that the boy would just go to sleep. Part of me thinks that since Mary was a mom she might just have some sympathy for me and throw me a bone. I mean- I am sure that Jesus and James got a little rowdy every once in a while so she might just know how I feel.(I'm having images of Mary telling Joseph, "If these kids don't go to sleep I'm going to flip out!) Plus, I feel like it may be a little better that my other, "Jesus, make this kid go to sleep or I'm going to jump off the roof!" prayer I've been saying!
A few nights ago, when Miles woke up for the third time before midnight and roamed all over the house, Kamron decided it was the last straw. The boy was playing us. We were clearly being manipulated. So Kamron put the pack and play on Miles' familiar part of the living room floor, put the baby in it and walked away. He came back to bed and we were determined that we were going to ride it out. Miles was determined he was going to ride it out, too. After about 15 minutes of crying bloody murder, I was also laying in bed crying bloody murder. I felt like we were being so cruel. I worried that we were just going to magnify whatever sleep/crib trauma the child was going through. I am grateful Kamron was willing to take on the "bad cop" role, because I just couldn't do it. Mostly, I think it was because he would want to divorce me if I went too much longer without any sleep. (I do tend to turn into a monster in desperate need of Prozac or a Valium or something!) Finally, we decided that we needed to drown out the crying and we laid in bed and watched reruns of "The Office" until the wee hours of the morning. After an hour of crying, Miles finally gave up and fell asleep and there he slept for 7 straight hours! (Insert angels singing the Hallelujah chorus here) That more than doubled his previous record. I think the boy just needed some boundaries. Anyway- after blissfully sleeping for a solid 6 hours myself, I woke up panicked that Miles must be dead and that is why he didn't wake up a million times. Much to my surprise, he was all curled up in the playpen sleeping like a brick. I am so excited!!!! I am at that point in my life where I will totally equate the excitement of a full night of sleep to losing one's virginity. Yay sleep! The possibility of future sleep has me positively twitteredpated! And it didn't stop there- 4 nights in a row of solid, wonderful, rejuvenating shut-eye. I feel like a new person! And Miles woke up full of smiles and hugs, so his nights of good rest didn't scar him too badly either! Score!
