I know that Carl has been working to translate the German Sprechen Sie Attisch? on the LetsReadGreek.com site. That's a fantastic reference, but it doesn't seem to conform easily to phrases that we can use here. For example, there's no simple way to say "please," but it seems to be built into imperatives and optatives throughout. Is there just an expression that means "please"? What about "you're welcome"?
I see ἐπαινῶ τὸ σόν for "thank you." What does this make of the εὐχαριστῶ (σοι) that we are apt to use with each other on Schole?
Also, what would be the difference between ἐπαινῶ τὸ σόν (from Sprechen Sie Attisch?), εὐχαριστῶ (σοι) and χάριν ἔχω (which I found in the Oxford dictionary)?

The Emery County Historical Society recently presented the Mysteries of the Mountain Meadows Massacre at the Museum of the San Rafael.
"You cannot understand the Mountain Meadows Massacre without understanding the events that occurred in a time of intense invasion, anxiety," said Edward Geary, speaker at the historical society meeting.
Geary said, "The Army was on the plains before any announcement was made to the people of Utah. Mormon missionaries went past the Army and hurried on, bringing the news to Brigham Young on July 24. This was 10 years after the Mormons first arrived in the Salt Lake Valley. To commemorate that particular anniversary the people held a big party up in big Cottonwood Canyon and in the middle of the festivities riders came in with the announcement that an Army was on its way to Utah.
"Brigham Young and church leaders immediately adopted defensive postures. They sent parties out into eastern Wyoming to attack and burn supply trains. They were determined to keep the Army from arriving at a faster pace than was necessary. They succeeded in keeping them there until after the winter had closed the pass.
"Utah war is a complex topic. I am not going to try to go into that, except to say that it dominated peoples' lives. The LDS the church leaders were trying to marshal forces. They wanted people to be ready to go up and be willing to give their lives in the defense of their homes.
"There were a lot of hellfire sermons. Mormons today are probably about as patriotic as anybody. But if you'd been in Utah in 1857 you would've heard all kinds of sermons condemning the United States of America and the United States government. The sermons talked about how God was going to use the Mormons and to convert the Indians into the battle axes of the Lord to bring down that government so that the people of God could be established. These were some very intense sermons.
"If you lived in Cedar City at that time or other communities in southern Utah, you were in a community that is about six or seven years old. Very poor, people are still living in dugouts or willow shanties, barely subsisting, very isolated, when you have problems, you have to solve the problem yourself, because there is no one you can bring in within many days of driving a wagon or riding a horse.
"Now they hear that an army is coming to Utah. When we look back now and know how hard it was to move an army of 2,500 men across the plains a huge supply operation was necessary to keep them going and to move them along. But you did not know that if you lived in Cedar City in 1857. You just knew the soldiers were coming. They actually were sending people out into the passes east of Cedar City to watch out in case an army would come through those passes. They were also concerned that an army would be coming from California eastward as well as those coming West. So it was a time of intense tension.
"In the very midst of that tension in comes this long train of immigration that summer. There came in a party or a group of parties who had started in the spring from Arkansas. They were composed largely of people who were related to each other or were neighbors to each other.
"One group had as its leader a man by the name of Jack Baker who was a very dynamic man, a very successful land and slave owner in Arkansas. He was a man who had some violence in his history. Earlier in his life when he lived in Alabama he had a dispute with some neighbors in which he killed three men. As a result he had to move out of Alabama and moved to Arkansas. It was reported that he was staunch friend and a bitter enemy. He was not a man you wanted to cross. He was going to California to establish himself there, to buy ranch land. He had a large herd of Texas long horns. He had a well equipped party and probably had a substantial amount of gold, that he was taking to buy land with.
"Among these parties crossing the plains, there weren't very many better equipped than this one. There were other parties they interchanged with on the plains. Sometimes being together and sometimes splitting up. If you had a large party, you had to divide up from time to time to keep the grazing land available. Especially if you had a large herd of cattle.
"One other group was led by Alexander Fancher. A lot of people talked about Jack Baker as being a hard man to cross. Every report that you get, that I have seen, talking about Alexander Fancher, uses the word gentleman. He was a very well respected man and he was going to California with his family and a herd of cattle. He also had money to buy land. Fancher had made two earlier trips, driving cattle and selling them in California. Now he was moving his family there to become permanent settlers.
"This then is the group that enters the Salt Lake valley, right after July 24, right after this news and anxiety that an army was coming. They came expecting that in the largest last city, before they crossed the desert, on the way to California, that they would be able to resupply, where they would be able to buy grain for their horses and mules, that they would be able to restock themselves with ammunition and other things. They found that regulations had been put in place that made all of that impossible. No guns or ammunition were to be sold to anyone. More people were trying to buy guns from travelers that came through to build up their supply. Utah people were permitted to sell grain for people to eat but not for animals.
"Remember the two parties together had about 1,000 of cattle. They had not quite that many when they arrived in the valley, because there were some losses crossing the plains. This was a large herd of cattle. So imagine yourself here at this time. Most people used the ground outside the community for their milk cows and other domestic stock. At this late summer time you are saving your winter herd ground to get you through the winter. When along came these people with this great herd of about a 1,000 head of cattle and they turn them into your herd ground.
"Conflict was bound to happen and some did. The wagon train expected to spend two weeks or more in the Salt Lake valley resupplying themselves, waiting for the weather to get cooler on the desert before they went on. They found themselves obligated to move on after only two days. They were clearly not welcome. As the wagon train went down the state, at Provo they ran into conflict over the herd ground. The constable came out and threatened to arrest them for turning their animals into the community herding ground. That happened again when they came to Nephi and all along the way. It is human nature, when you find hostility, you tend to respond with some hostility and that is what happened.
"After the massacre the stories multiplied about how bad these immigrants were, the terrible things they said and things they did. They named their oxen after church leaders and would swear at them as they went through the towns. One man showed a gun and said this is the gun that killed Joe Smith.
"If you look closely at these immigrants, it is obvious that they probably had similar values to those of Utah, the majority of the party was made up of women and children. A third of the party was young children. Even some of the men, people who were keeping journals as the party passed through their community recorded going out and visiting with members of the party, they were gentlemen.
I have talked about Jack Baker and Alexander Fancher. There apparently had been a man in the party, if you look at the main participants among the immigrants, a man who is never named and is called the Dutchey. This probably means that he had a German accent. The story is that he joined the Baker and Fancher party at Ft. Bridger and wanted to go to California with them. He apparently was a very big man, very strong. He rode a big gray horse. He was extremely aggressive. He embarrassed the rest of the party by his readiness to contend and insult people.
"As a matter of fact, part of the people that come from Arkansas with the Baker party left the party and went to California through southern Idaho.
"Most California immigrants took the California trail that goes through southern Idaho, past the City Of Rocks and then down into Nevada and crossed the Humbolts to the west. They would deviate from that trail to come to Salt Lake for supplies and then go back north to the California trail.
"But when you get later in the season you are not sure you are going to get through the Sierras before the snow falls. Then it became more advantageous to take the southern route, which essentially follows the present route of Interstate Highway 15, through southern Utah and across the Mojave Desert. The Fancher/Baker party was the first party that year to take the southern route instead of the northern route. But the people that had come from Arkansas with that party decided to take the northern route from Salt Lake, because there had been so much contention in the Fancher Baker party.
"They also had a large number of young boys with the party for herding the cattle. These were boys in their late teens and early 20s who were away from home. Even today such boys are not on their best behavior, when they are traveling. It may well be that the problem was caused by a relatively small group.
"The first really serious problem came when they reached Corn Creek. This is the present site of the community of Kanosh in Millard County. At that time it was the headquarters of the Kanosh band of Indians. There the party camped on one bank of Corn Creek and a party came in from the south and camped on the other side. That second party included George A. Smith, who had just come back from a tour of southern Utah preaching hellfire and damnation to arouse people up against the invading army. Jacob Hamblin was also in that group, going to meet with Brigham Young in Salt Lake.
"The two parties met each other and had some exchanges and as the Baker/Fancher party left they had some conflicts with the Indians. The story is that they poisoned the springs and poisoned dead cattle, knowing that the Indians would come and salvage the dead cattle and eat them several Indians died as a result.
"It would be hard to poison a spring effectively with the toxins available at that period of time so that is dubious. The cattle, Walker, Turley and Weber purposed that the problem may have been anthrax. Because it was known that sometimes Texas Longhorns carried anthrax spores with them. The information about the illnesses and deaths in the Corn Creek area, fit the symptoms of anthrax. So it is possible.
"In any case the Indians are angry and follow the party for a considerable distance. The Kanosh Indians did not follow them as far as Mountain Meadows.
"When the Fancher/Baker party got into southern Utah a very isolated region, they already had a bad reputation. When they got to Parowan, a rural town, a fortified community, the party was not allowed to drive through town and had to make a new road around. For all practical purposes the town refused to deal with the immigrants. They went on to Cedar City where they were able to get some supplies. They bought 50 bushels of grain, they then took it to the grist mill to have it ground and they were accommodated, but not very charitably. The miller insisted that they trade a cow for grinding 50 bushels of wheat, which was an exorbitant price. They paid the price but were very bitter about it.
"Some young men, while the grist was grinding, discovered a distillery in town where a beverage known as sage brush whiskey was made. They sampled the beverage and then began behaving badly. So there was a lot of conflict between the party and the residents. One man lopped off the heads of two chickens, belonging to a widow in town, and threw them into his wagon. That did not increase their popularity.
"Eventually at the general store in town they could not get the supplies, (the store keeper later said we did not have the provisions they asked for), but they apparently believed the store had the provisions and just would not sell to the party. So they rode over to the home of Stake President Isaac C. Haight who was the manager of the store. There they called out questions. They then told him that they were going to California and as soon as they got there, they were going to send the soldiers there back to take care of these Mormons and that they would clean up this town. Haight took these threats very seriously.
"The party left Cedar City and within two days were in Mountain Meadows where they planned to stay as most parties taking that route did. This was the last place where you could feed your animals well before the difficult desert crossing.
"When you look at the time line, a series of events got out of hand. We have all had the experience of un-anticipated and unintended consequences. We make a decision, we do something, without realizing what is going to follow from that decision. That is human nature.
"But here we have that kind of a chain in a particularly disastrous form. Haight, as I said, was the most powerful man in town. He was the stake president. He was also the Major of the Militia and felt that he had been personally threatened and his community had been threatened. He decided that you cannot just let these people go Scott free. We have to chastise them in some way and that was the thing the church leaders had been preaching that summer. Mormons had to make alliances with the Indians. When the army came they wanted the Indians to be able to make a distinction between the Mormons and the Americans. The Mormons were their friends and the Americans were their enemy and be prepared to help. Well, OK, we will call out the Indians. The people in southern Utah lived side by side with the various Paiute bands. There were Paiute's in Cedar City, there were Paiute's in the hills around and in the other small communities.
"The Mormons knew Indians well. They had a lot of dealings with each other. Haight's idea at first was, we won't let these guys get away, we will sic the Indians on them and see what harm they can do. At the very least teach them a lesson.
"He called in John D. Lee who lived in the town of Harmony a few miles south. If you go down I-15 now, you know there is New Harmony over against the mountains on the west. The original Harmony was right in the middle of that valley. They finally moved it because the winds were too bad coming up and down the valley.
"Lee was an Indian Farmer. Indian Farmer was a government job where you were paid to teach the Indians how to farm. Trying to get them to adopt a life of farming. He had a lot of influence with the local people. Haight called Lee into Cedar City and they went out to the old iron works, which were now not operating, and laid on blankets all night and made their plans. The plan was that Lee would go and gather up the Paiute bands and take them to waylay the settlers. The idea was not to waylay them at Mountain Meadows where they were already camped, but farther south in the Santa Clara River Narrows where the wagons would have to go one after another. The Indians could hide in the brush and rocks and attack. That was the plan. I do not think Haight at this time had necessarily thought of wiping them out. Go out there, give them a hard time, if you could get some of their livestock, good. They could use cattle, and send them on their way so they will think twice before they take us on again.
"That was Lee's concept too. We will just go out and harass them. The Indians were gathered together. Lee and other men went out with the Indian tribes in substantial numbers to arrive in the Mountain Meadows area. Some estimates are as high as 600. But you could not have found 600 able bodied men from some of the pioneers. It would have been more like 150-200 men is the best estimate.
"Lee is there trying to manage them. The Indians all came in their war paint and they are all excited about having a raiding party. The Indians do not want to wait. These people get through feeding their stock and go down to where the Indians gathered and say why do we not do it here. Look how many of us there are. Their supposed plan was abandoned," Geary stated.

The San Jose Earthquakes and Portland Timbers played out a 1-1 draw at Buck Shaw Stadium Sunday evening as once again, the home team rescued the game late. Follow GOAL.COM on Twitter
The Quakes had the slight advantage in the first half, as Timbers goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts was called into action for a pair of sharp saves on Steven Lenhart and later Chris Wondolowski.
It was Portland, however, which got on the board first. Diego Chara's through ball was cut out with a slide tackle by Steven Beitashour, but the ball popped up kindly for the onrushing Diego Valeri to volley home and give his side a 1-0 lead.
Just as it looked like the Timbers would steal a road win, the Goonies struck again. After a scramble in the box, the ball fell kindly for substitute Adam Jahn, and the rookie buried his shot in the corner. Once again, the Earthquakes had rescued a point in stoppage time.

USDA Utilities Administrator Highlights the Importance of Bringing Broadband to Rural America
Written by Jonathan Adelstein, Administrator, Rural Utilities Service
I traveled to Philadelphia today to join the National Rural Utilities Cooperative Finance Corporation (CFC) for their 2010 national forum. We partner with CFC to finance electric cooperatives across rural America. It was a chance to talk about the progress USDA has made over the last 75 years toward rural electrification, and how we are on the frontlines again to bring access to high speed broadband to rural America.
In 1935, our agency was challenged to bring affordable electricity to millions of farms, ranches and homes in rural America. Today we face a similar challenge with deployment of broadband.
Rural Utilities Service (RUS), the agency I oversee, has been working with national partners such as the CFC to advance new policies and programs to develop and invest in renewable energy, energy efficiency, and smart grid technology. Integrated into our strategy is deployment of broadband. The Congress and President Obama included in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act funding to jump start this effort. To date, we have committed investment of more than $1 billion for 68 rural broadband infrastructure projects in 32 states. That means over 500,000 households, 97,000 businesses and 3,300 anchor institutions will see the way they do business dramatically change – new opportunities for emerging markets, better access to health care and education.
Successful applicants include electric cooperative borrowers such as the Consolidated Electric Cooperative, who was selected for a loan-grant combination of over $2 million to construct a 166-mile middle mile network that will bring major city connectivity into underserved areas of North Central Ohio. It'll provide badly needed connectivity for key community facilities and wireless internet service providers. It will also connect all of Consolidated's substations to support its smart grid technology initiative.
This is exactly what we like to see – expanded broadband connectivity combined with sustainable, smart grid technology – delivered to rural America. It is this kind of leveraging between our electric and telecommunications program delivery that will help our cooperative partners offer key energy efficiency tools to residential consumers so that they can monitor their usage and reduce their monthly electricity costs.
These critical broadband investments will help keep the United States at the center of innovation, and they will bring greater job opportunities to our rural communities. It is the link to long-term sustainable economic growth that our rural communities so urgently need.

|In response to Re: Air in Line/Pressure Tank?
: Hi, all!
: I had to replace the pump that pulls water into the house from the spring. After doing so, it seemed that, whenever the water was first turned on (hot or cold line), the water from the faucet would "spurt" for a while and then resume a smooth flow. I have observed the pressure tank "banging" during this time. Upon further observation, it seems that this occurs when the pressure in the system drops to the point where the pump kicks back on to refill the tank.
: This is the same tank that was on the system. I reconnected it to the system while replacing the pump. I think it was reconnected correctly, but wonder if I didn't do something right and there is a problem either with the pressure settings (it empties too far before starting the pump), with the initial refill of the system (i.e., when I started the new pump for the first time) or with the tank itself.
: Any thoughts or suggestions would be welcome.
: Thanks in advance,
: Cliff

By GARY ARRINGTONSports writer
The 2010-11 edition of the Emery High boys basketball team opened their season last week with a pair of games against two teams that to the best of my memory have never been on Emery's schedule before. Emery lost to Wasatch Academy on the road 60-55 before defeating Liahona 77-62 at home.
This version of the Spartans could be described as athletic but short as the tallest starter stands around 6'2" tall. But the Spartans make up for their lack of height with team speed, quickness and all-around athletic ability.
Ty Benson led the team in scoring the first two games as he scored 53 points the first two nights out. Benson had 33 points in the opener against Wasatch and then scored 20 against Liahona. Benson is a good three-point shooter and had a total of 10 in the two games.
Emery jumped out to an early lead in their game against Liahona as they led 28-12 after the first quarter and then they basically maintained that lead throughout the game.
Also scoring in the game for Emery were Kash Jewkes with 13 points, Quinn Montgomery with 12 points, Nick Stoddard with 11 points, Kashe Potter with eight points, Gage Bell with six points, Chance Huntington with four points and Dallon Cologie with three points.
In their season opener, Wasatch played an international squad in defeating the Spartans. With players from Canada, Germany, Lithuania and several other foreign countries, Wasatch out-shot the shorter Spartan team in securing the victory. Just look at the last names of the players, Spayth, Ainulis, Krajavic, Caba, Skeete and Kurtev are not exactly common names here in Utah. Every Wasatch Academy player was taller than Emery's tallest player.
Emery was down 25-16 at the half, closed the score to 44-39 after the third quarter and then lost the game by five points against a 1-A team that may be hard to beat this season. In junior varsity action against Wasatch Academy the team came from a 17 point deficit at the half to win by two points.
Besides Benson's 33 points, Montgomery scored eight points, Stoddard five points and Jewkes and Potter four points each against Wasatch Academy.
The preseason schedule includes three games this week, Emery will travel to Carbon High on Wednesday, to Canyon View High on Friday night and then closes out the week with a game at Hurricane Saturday night.

How-To Geek
Beginner Geek: How To Edit Your Hosts File
On occasion you will need to edit the hosts file on your machine. Sometimes because of an attack or prank, and others so that you can simply and freely control access to websites and network traffic.
hosts files have been in use since ARPANET. They were used to resolve hosts names before DNS. hosts files would be massive documents used to aide the network name resolution.
Microsoft kept the hosts file alive in Windows networking which is why it varies very little whether used in Windows, OS X or Linux. The syntax stays mostly the same across all platforms. Most hosts files will have several entries for loopback. We can use that for the basic example for the typical syntax.
The first part will be the location to redirect the address to, the second part will be the address that you will want to redirect, and the third part is the comment. They can be separated by a space, but for ease of reading are typically separated by one or two tabs.
127.0.0.1 localhosts #loopback
Now let's look at accessing the hosts files in the different operating systems…
Windows 8 or 8.1 or 10
Unfortunately Windows 8 or 10 makes it annoying to open apps as administrator — but it's not too difficult. Just search for Notepad, then right-click on Notepad in the search results list, and choose to run it as administrator. If you're using Windows 10 this will be on the Start Menu.
If you're using Windows 10, it'll look more like this:
Once you've done so, open up the following file using the File -> Open feature.
Then you can edit as normal.
Windows 7
To access the hosts file in Windows 7 you can use the following command in the Run Line to open notepad and the file.
notepad c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
Once notepad is open you can edit the file. In this example we will block Facebook. To do this just enter in the following after the # mark.
0.0.0.0 www.facebook.com
Now that you have edited your Hosts file make sure to save it.
Now notice if we try to access Facebook in IE we can't get to the page.
We also were not able to get to it in Google Chrome… (check notes at the end). Also for more info on editing your Hosts file, check out The Geek's article on how to create a shortcut to quickly edit your Hosts file.
In Ubuntu 10.04 and most Linux distro's you can edit the hosts file directly in the terminal. You can use your favorite editor or even open your favorite GUI text editor. For this example we will use VIM. Like Windows 7, Ubuntu's hosts file is located in the /etc/ folder, though here it is in the root of the drive. In order to edit the file you will need to open it as root which is why we use sudo here.
Now that it is open we can edit it to redirect Facebook into nothing. You will notice that with Ubuntu there is also a section for IP6. For most needs you will only need to edit it the top section and ignore the IP6.
Now we can save the file and try to go to Facebook.com. Just like in windows we will see that we are now redirected to a site that does not exist.
Mac OS X (Any version)
In OS X, accessing the hosts file is very similar to Ubuntu. Begin in terminal and use your favorite editor, even is you wish to call a GUI text editor, it is easier to do so from terminal.
The file will look a bit more like Windows, only with a little less explanation. Again we are going to redirect Facebook.
This time it seems that 0.0.0.0 is a loopback and will direct you to the computers Apache test page.
There are some things to note from this walkthrough that we did notice. When tested it, Chrome did not use the hosts file in any operating system but we were able to block Facebook in Chrome by adding www.facebook.com. Also, make sure to place and extra line after the last entry for the section.
This should get you started in understanding the Hosts file and how it can help protect your computer. You can use it to block sites that you don't want a PC to be able to access. If you have more suggestions for any of the operating systems we coved, then leave a comment and let us know!
Create a Shortcut to Quickly Edit Your Hosts File in Windows
- Published 02/1/15
Comments (19)
In what context would one need to edit ons host file?
also, Google chrome often accesses folders you shouldn't be able to…
I regularly perform virus removal and have noticed a few times when an infected machine will not connect to Windows update even when all other sites load fine. I have seen this problem continue even after removing all infections (checked clean with several different A/V programs), but I have noticed that somehow MS Security Essentials seems to fix it just by installing it.
I never knew how or why this works but after reading this it seems like maybe some infections alter the IP address of the Windows update website in the host file and that MSE must check and fix this during the install.
I can not confirm this at the moment but the next time I come across a machine with this issue I will check the host file first and update this thread.
This doesn't actually block access to these sites. It merely prevents the OS from performing a DNS lookup by prodiving it with (false) information about where (in the example) http://www.facebook.com is located.
If you input the ip address into your browser it will load the page located there.
Just thought I would clarify, it's not a block on the site but a redirect of the DNS query being made to resolve it's IP address.
can you in any way direct programs to use a specific internet source (i.e. my 3g stick for Yahoo Messenger and GTalk and my ethernet for the rest) ?
It should be noted that with UAC on (Windows Vista and above), you will need to run the command in an elevated (Administrative) command prompt or you will be prevented form saving the changed Hosts file in the default location (you will get the Save As dialog when you attempt to save, and it will try to save the file to My Documents instead)
Gah…typo: "you will be prevented FROM saving"
Interesting. Curious why my previous comment was moderated out? Would be nice to get a bounce back about that.
what would be good instead of it displaying the default connection error and diagnose button etc would for it to redirect to a webpage either on the machine itself or a page in a separate folder on your site so it displays a custom message/page of your own choice ..
anyone know if that can be done? and of course how to do it?
You would change or turn the host file off if it is re-directing you to a dodgey site. e.g if you are going onto you internet banking and your host file is compromised it could lead you to a fake website that looks the same as your internet banking and if you did not realise you may enter your details. The term for this is Pharming Attack
Another thing you can also disable UAC (User Account Control) by typing MSCONFIG into your Run box and unticking it :note you will have to restart the computer before it takes effect
In Ubuntu 10.10 hosts file seems to have been seperated into hosts.allow; host.deny
could you please guide as to how + where one can copy paste the host file listed in mvps.org site ?
@Dav (above)
In terminal type: sudo gedit /etc/hosts
anyone can help me….
i wish to block facebook frm ma lap
which IP address i should give ….?
in above xample shown 0.0.0.0
its working….???
wr i can save d edited file…..??
Just tried it out. It works. But as one of the peers in a comment says: 'you can access the page if you write the page's server IP address'.
I tried to write the server IP address of a page… for example, instead of:
0.0.0.0 facebook.com
I wrote:
18.104.22.168 facebook.com
And it doesn't work. The page appears as if I hadn't modify the host file, whether I write facebook.com or 126.96.36.199.
Any ideas?
I have used the Mvps custom Hosts file in Windows with "Hostsman" and then copy and pasted IT into the Ubuntu /etc/hosts file. Of course you have to use sudo gedit before that. It Works fine, just like Windows. Only trouble, There is no "server" function like HOSTSMAN has to substitute a colored photo or .jpg of your choice to Replace the blank space where the AD would have been. I TRIED in Vain to explain this to my relatives and how easy it is on XP especially and why it's good. An effective layer of protection. Finally I showed them how after their daughter *who clicks on flashing banners and anything, welcomed several bad things on to the computer. OH! light bulb went off. Thanks for the refresher How to Geek. :0)
thanks for the post . media fire was blocked in our collage and i managed to get all the ips and host name of media fire and posted in host file . now i can acess it as i used to do before blocking .
but from where i can get all "ips and corresponding hostname for shared"
I´m setting up an svn repository on a Network Attached Storage device, connected to a local network at the office. At the same time i would like to check out the repo from home (over wan).
Now comes the tricky part that i´m still trying to figure out…
I have some svn:externals references set up in the project, binding it to some other library-projects. Of course at home i had to map these LAN addresses to the external ip of the network to make it work. Now back at the office i would love to make use of the wired ethernet network we have set up, and not to have to pass through the internet to access those external resources.
I thought of something like editing this hosts file in a manner similar to this:
# local network address of NAS – server domain name
192.168.0.2 server.com
But it doesn´t really work, as the files on the NAS is not directly accessible by its local IP, but rather by shared folders in windows.
Is there a way to use the hosts file to map a domain to a local shared folder? Or am i on the wrong track?
Any help appreciated…

Reece Barrick, the director of the College of Eastern Utah Prehistoric Museum for the last six years resigned from his position earlier this week, according to an email from CEU Interim President Mike King.
"Reece has worked hard during his time here at CEU to improve and advance our museum," stated King. "We appreciate his efforts and successes."
Reportedly Barrick has take the position of director at the Sternburg Natural History Museum on the campus of the Fort Hays State University in Fort Hays, Kansas.
Barrick came to CEU in the fall of 2003 after working in North Carolina for some years. A native of Iowa, Barrick came here with big plans and hoped to see a new museum facility put up during his tenure. The plans for that new building and the Mesozoic Gardens on the bluffs above west Price are still in the works.
Barrick took over a museum that had been started 33 years before by the locally well known college professor Don Burge and a group of rock hounds in 1960. The museum, originally housed on the second floor of the Price City Hall eventually got its own building when a gymnasium connected to the city has was remodeled and then later in the 1980's an expansion project doubled its size. Burge directed that growth and the the growth of the museum collection which began with a bunch of rock specimens and a few indian artifacts and when he left had grown into a world class accredited museum.
Barrick, a trained paleontologist, had expanded the work on dinosaur and ancient fossils, and had expanded the staff during his tenure reaching out to many parts of the community. He had also worked with Mark Bingham, a former resident, who donated the ground to the college for the new museum site.
King says an annoucement concerning a search for Barrick's replacement will come in the next couple of weeks. What that search looks like, how it will be organized, or even if a new director could be picked before next year when the legislature considers the recommended merger between CEU and Utah State University remains to be seen.

The episode that represents Chapter 597 :D Good stuff. Look at that even they translated the same way Aohige_AP did a year ago. Maybe this will help remind those thickheaded fools it is the ONLY way to fight a logia without DF power.
Like how the anime showed the monster not being effect by Luffy's gear second all to make him seem even more stronger in the anime.

At the recent Ferron City Council meeting, Council person Jo Sansevero expressed concern over the water situation in Ferron. "We have people who are watering during all hours of the day. On the recommendations of the State of Utah, there is to be no watering from 10 a.m.-6 p.m.," stated Sansevero.
The State of Utah has, in their "Slow the Flow" campaign, determined that any watering which occurs during the heat of the day, those hours from 10 a.m.-6 p.m., there is very little benefit. Any water used during those hours is so quickly evaporated, it does not have enough time to soak in and do the landscape any benefit.
As a result, all the cities in Utah have adopted the recommendations of Utah, to discourage all residents from watering during those hours. In as much as Utah is a desert state, the need to conserve water is very great. Now, this year, with the state's precipitation amounts this year being so drastically low, everyone needs to be reminded of the restrictions which are necessary to carry through the summer months.
If the amount of water available becomes so low, all outside watering will be banned. Residents need to watch and restrict their outside water usage. Be especially careful that no water is being wasted on the sidewalks or on weeds. With the proper adherence to the restrictions, all county residents should have enough water to last through the summer. Ferron City also discourages outside watering with culinary water.
In other business conducted by Ferron City, Council person Melinda Mecarriello announced progress in the Molen Ditch project. Permission is coming through the channels at the US Forest Service for the portion of the Molen Ditch which goes through their property in Ferron, to be filled in. Permission is also required from the Ferron Canal Company.
Mecarriello also announced she is doing research into the situation with Canyon Road. There are repairs which need to be completed this season, and she is researching contracts with Nielson Construction and the Special Service District to determine the financial responsibility of each party involved.
The council approved to hold a public hearing on June 14 to adopt the final budget for Ferron City for the 2007-2008 fiscal year. The final adopted budget must be in to the State by June 21. Copies of the proposed budget are available in City Hall for residents to read. Comments are to be taken at the public hearing.
The next Ferron City Council meeting will be June 14 at 7 p.m. in City Hall.

GDB 77: This is it
Jason Gregor
March 31 2009 12:03PM
Tonight is do or die for the Oilers. I know they have five more games, but if they lose in regulation tonight they won't make playoffs. We all know this but let's go on record saying: a loss puts them three back of the Ducks, and possibly five back of Nashville if they beat Columbus. Five games remaining won't be enough time to make up those points.
Unfortunately a win doesn't guarantee they make the playoffs, but for their psyche they need a win tonight. The players had another closed door meeting before practice yesterday. Having another one after a loss tonight becomes redundant, and if the message didn't sink in after yesterday's session it never will.
Rather than be upset, frustrated, annoyed, pissed off or scared, Oiler fans should embrace tonight's game. It will be the most intense game you have witnessed all season. You will race home, kiss the wife, play with the kids for a few minutes but YOU know that come 7:30 you will be planted firmly on the coach, bevy in hand, chips in the bowl, leaning forward towards the TV with your hands clenched waiting for the puck to drop.
And you know you will be filled with nervous anticipation. There will be at least two dust ups tonight, four or five big hits and hopefully many goals. Rexall Place will be loud, because even though the masses are pissed and ready to hang MacT, most of you can't bring yourself not to cheer for your team in such a meaningful game. That's being an Oilers fan folks.
Games like tonight are what make sports great. All those dud games in Nov, Dec and Sunday against the Wild are a distant memory now. Tonight all you care about is seeing a win, because at least that keeps the dream alive for a few more games.
A loss tonight and the dream is over for another season. No possible drunk chicks flashing you on Whyte, no chance the wife watches the game in just an Oiler jersey and no house parties or nights out watching the playoffs with the Boys.
It is excruciatingly simple for the Oilers: Win and you stay alive. Lose and you play out the string.
Good to see it's the Ducks
The Ducks are the perfect opponent for a game of this magnitude. They play tough, physical and have loads of top-end skill. If the Oilers dont show up tonight they will not only lose, but get humiliated at home. The Ducks bring out the emotion of the Oilers. The Oilers actually play with a pulse when the Human Rake and company come to town.
More often than not this year the Oilers have looked as prepared as your drunk Uncle emceeing a family wedding. You know the guy who thinks he is funny at the family summer picnic, yet when he gets on the mic at the wedding his stories suck, his jokes are stolen from some lame website, and the program rolls as smoothly as the Best Man's toast about the groom and his past conquests.
The Oilers will be ready to play tonight. I dont know if they will win, but tonight's effort will be one of the few times this year that they are prepared. There was a playoff energy in the locker room this morning. Players smiled when asked about the intensity, and expected physical play tonight.
Last December when the Ducks came to town the Oilers played their best home game of the year even though they lost in a SO. They out shot the Ducks 53-36, they killed off seven of eight powerplays and engaged the Ducks physically at every turn. In fact, the Ducks are only 2 for 19 on the PP against the Oilers this year. I cant explain why when you look at the Ducks firepower, but the Oilers PK is actually good against them.
The Oilers won both games in Anaheim, despite being outshot in both. Expect the trend of the home team getting more shots to continue this evening.
The Oilers just wrapped up a crisp morning skate. There wasnt much standing around, passes were on the tape, they actually scored some goals in practice and to a man they looked ready. The only concern is that even in practice, it looked like Horcoff was still struggling to finish.
The most frustrating thing to watch today was Grebeshkov in a shooting drill. He scored on three consecutive slap shots, two from the high slot and another from blueline. Why he doesn't shoot during the game remains a mystery. Though he did have three shots on goal the last time the Ducks were in town, so he might actually take a shot tonight. He has a measly 53 shots on net this year.
They didnt do any line rushes, but there wont be any lineup changes, outside of Peckham drawing in for Smid.
Tonight Dwayne Roloson will become the oldest goalie to play in 60 games in a season. The CF will start his start his 33rd consecutive game tonight, and like most games during the previous 32 he will need to be one of their top three players if the Oilers hope to stay in the playoff race.
Enjoy the afternoon planning your playoff experience tonight, hopefully for Oiler fans you get a few more opportunities to feel the anticipation and excitement this April.
It's so quiet now that this sounds like a practice game. You can hear the guys on the ice calling for the puck. There's gonna be alot of booing tonight.
When did Hemsky become a slap shot guy?
Ducks could play with 4 the rest of the night and win this one

You know, I almost feel bad for MacT. I'm sure by this point he's done all he can to try and get the players motivated, but nothing is working. I could totally see him stepping down at the end of the season. I'm amazed he hasn't done it yet.
March 31 2009, 09:56PM
No Ducks shots this period? It's like they're daring the Oilers to try and score.
@ Librarian Mike: impressive, how are they still managing to outplay the oilers? We really suck!
March 31 2009, 09:59PM
cotton eyed JOKE
MacT might not get his 300th win with the oil ever at this rate.
it's obvious at thist ime that a comeback is likely out of reach, so why not just beat the crap out of the Ducks? Hit anyone and everyone, make them freaking PAY.
Scratch that last comment.
look out, here they come!

GREBESHKOV you just made up for not shooting ten seconds earlier
March 31 2009, 10:01PM
the hand tapping with the bench is embarrassing
Ohh crap? 3 minutes left in the game? better start trying again - Oilers Players as MacT instantly grows 10 years older
I'd be interested to know how many goals the Oilers have scored in the last 5 minutes of the games they've played compared to any other time during the game.
March 31 2009, 10:02PM
Maybe this is all some elaborate April Fool's Day prank...maybe...
March 31 2009, 10:02PM
From Wanye's twitter... "I have been watching MacT on the bench for over 5 mins straight. Not a single person has talked to him or vice versa. #FMNF"
Well now they've made it interesting...

Just as interesting would be to know how many times they have given a goal with 2 minutes or less left in the 1st or second period
Just as I was thinking "STORTINI AS THE EXTRA MAN? REALLY?" he scores.
Stortini HAS to be one of the highlights of this year. Just has to. Why we haven't used him more just slays me.
stick measurement? REALLY????????? lolololol
March 31 2009, 10:05PM
What a memorable season! double digit loses, Penner the puss, Roli the goalie, and the sophmore slumps. On the bright side, at worst the oil have a 0.5% chance of getting Tavares! On the dark side the oil will be playing the same amount of playoff games as the Winnipeg Jets.

In March 1918 Lambert visited the battle grounds of Romani, east of the Suez Canal on the Sinai Coast, where Allied forces in August 1916 had defeated a Turkish assault on their defenses at the Egyptian town of Romani. There he painted this watercolour of Katib Gannit.
Lambert made a number of watercolours while working in Palestine, Egypt and Gallipoli, most likely because it was a medium that was easy to carry from place to place and to use outdoors. Here, as in a number of his war watercolours, Lambert used the medium as a tinted drawing, sketching in the outlines of his scene in pencil to emphasise the forms, and then building up the details of the scene in watercolour. To capture the glaring heat of the desert he used a thin translucent wash in the sky. He also used the medium to advantage to capture the transparency of the shadows and the palpitating atmosphere.
Lambert remarked to William Moore that the heat in Palestine 'was a supreme test even for the Australians'. He observed that the heat was 'indescribable – unendurable. Even if I had been inclined to slack myself the example of men who never tired forced me to be up early and paint and draw all day' (Moore, vol. 2, p.62).

The Arizona Diamondbacks and Los Angeles Dodgers incurred Major League Baseball's wrath for their Tuesday night brawl, as MLB handed out eight suspensions and 12 fines.
NIGHTENGALE: MLB made the right call
Diamondbacks starter Ian Kennedy, who twice hit batters, received the biggest punishment and was suspended 10 games. Also suspended were: Diamondbacks infielder Eric Hinske (five games), Dodgers pitchers J.P Howell (two games) and Ronald Belisario (one game), infielder/outfielder Skip Schumaker (two games).
Both managers, the Dodgers' Don Mattingly and the Diamondbacks' Kirk Gibson, received one game and Dodgers hitting coach Mark McGwire received two games.
Fines also were issued to Dodgers starter Zack Greinke and outfielder Yasiel Puig, Diamondbacks catcher Miguel Montero and outfielder Gerardo Parra for their roles in the brawl.
But the fines and suspensions hardly brought a sense of resolution to the matter.
"If one person is upset," Greinke said of the remaining nine meetings between the Dodgers and Diamondbacks this season, "it could start the whole thing over again."
Added reliever Belisario, who will not appeal and serve his suspension Friday night: "Everyone knows it's not over."
Kennedy hit Greinke in the seventh inning after warnings had already been issued. He had hit Dodgers rookie Puig with a pitch that brushed his nose earlier in the sixth inning. Greinke retaliated in the bottom of the sixth by hitting Montero.
The last pitcher to get a 10-game suspension was Runelvys Hernandez in 2005.
Mattingly will serve his suspension Friday night against the Pittsburgh Pirates and Gibson during the Diamondbacks' game against the San Diego Padres.
All players can appeal the suspensions and fines; Howell indicated that he would.

Alan Farlie, Exhibition designer,
RFK Architects Ltd
Explaining the job of an exhibition designer is not straightforward as it depends on the type of exhibition and the type of story being told. For a paintings and drawings show we may work with existing gallery walls and the job is about placement and selection of wall colours. Designing Shakespeare: staging the world was far more complicated than that.
We were finishing the installation of Treasures of Heaven in 2011 when I was asked if we would pitch for the Shakespeare exhibition. The British Museum was already working with the Royal Shakespeare Company and one of the reasons for the pitch was to see how we would work with Tom Piper, Associate Designer at the RSC. At RFK we believe there should be an intellectual foundation to all of our design work and the first stage, before putting pencil to paper, is research. In the case of Shakespeare that involved research into the objects and the story, but also a look at Tom's work for the RSC and thoughts on the differences between exhibition design and theatre design.
People often talk about 'theatrical' design, as shorthand for flamboyant, noisy and in many cases over-blown design. Tom's designs for the RSC are consciously modern and often stripped back, which immediately struck a chord with us. And an interview with the Guardian reinforced the sense that Tom had a similar approach to his work: "Perhaps surprisingly, Piper starts with the text: reading the script, picking out words, themes, politics – any hook that might snag an idea". For us it's the objects rather than the text but the principle is the same. Unless you understand the objects and the curatorial story any exhibition will just be a repeat of some standard formula.
In our pitch to the BM we included sketches that illustrated the principle differences between exhibition and theatre design.
In the theatre, the audience remains in a fixed location as the spectacle changes everyone starts the play at the same time and finishes at the same time. The experience is a shared one that unfolds over time.
In an exhibition, the spectacle is fixed. It tends to be an individual experience that unfolds as the visitor moves through the space at his or her own pace, encountering new points of view with every step. Our challenge was to blend the visual language of performance-based stage design with that of object-based exhibition design and to come up with something new and unexpected.
The exhibition is structured around the idea of nine 'Imagined Worlds' each of which represents different aspects of Shakespeare's plays. Our first sketches showed the first of these 'London 1612' at the heart of the exhibition with all the other sections linking to it. As the design developed it became apparent this would not work practically but we felt it was important to retain the sense of London being at the exhibition's heart, if not its physical centre.
We were also struck by the resonances of an exhibition about 'the text' being staged within the Round Reading Room, which is still a working library and from the outset wanted to express that connection. In the final design this was achieved by cutting a series of slot windows that give views onto the bookstacks.
To develop the design, we used a series of models at various scales. Models are perfect for collaborations of this kind and allow for immediate exchange of ideas. They are not precious and are there to be cut and carved as part of the process. The first draft, shown here, has just four elements (the large ring is the lighting ring originally installed for The First Emperor exhibition): at bottom left is London or the 'Wooden O' as it became known; at top right is a second curve that enclosed 'The New World' and in the centre of the room, two large walls that carried two of the largest objects (Fialletti's view of Venice and the Sheldon Tapestry Map, which featured in previous blogs) and also began to define Venice, Arden and Great Britain. This basic structure of circles, arcs and straight walls was overlaid and developed to become the exhibition now on display.
This photo of the (almost) final design shows how the circle of the 'Wooden O' breaks down and is repeated at different scales in combination with the flat painted walls to create the different worlds. In the first section the curved walls are finished in stained plywood fixed vertically to reference the architecture of Shakespeare's Globe theatre. In the next section the plywood breaks up to form the 'trees' of the Forest of Arden with a sandblasted and stained finish. In medieval England and the Classical world of Julius Caesar the plywood is laid on its side and whitewashed to reference monumental stonework. And to represent the world of Macbeth a charred and blackened finish combines with a deep red and a series of slots to create a sense of menace and uncertainty.
The final section focuses on the strange and foreign New World of The Tempest. As the new lands were so full of surprises for the Elizabethan and Jacobean explorers, so this final space in the exhibition speaks of a blank canvas, a liminal space, full of potential and wonder. This is invoked using the vocabulary of contemporary art galleries and cinema. The walls, floor and ceiling are white and the lighting is diffuse so that this space evokes the starkness of the White Cube and the other-worldliness of Stanley Kubrick's 2001.
This is just a taster of the work that went into the design and there are many other collaborations that are an essential part of putting together an exhibition of this scale. In particular we worked closely with the lighting designer (Zerlina Hughes of Studio ZNA) and digital media consultant (David Bickerstaff at Newangle) as well as the in house graphic designer at the British Museum. So finally – a couple of images of the completed exhibition – I hope you get a chance to see it.
Shakespeare: staging the world is open from 19 July to 25 November 2012.
The exhibition is supported by BP.
Part of the World Shakespeare Festival and London 2012 Festival.

Maybe she was feeling unchained (feisty?) after splitting from one of the world's most famous, and famously controlling, men.
Last summer, just days after Katie Holmes filed for divorce from Tom Cruise, she shot a guest judging spot for Lifetime's Project Runway: All Stars. It aired Thursday night, and clearly, Holmes was feeling strong, criticizing a creation by frontrunning designer Anthony Ryan Auld — no matter that senior snipper sniper Isaac Mizrahi was a big fan of the dress.
"The thing that was upsetting to me was, 'I want all this hidden,' " Holmes said during the judges' powwow, referring to the real-woman model's desire to conceal vs. reveal her bust, "but my eye went straight there" — to her chest. (The challenge involved dressing military veterans.)
Mizrahi, looking annoyed, countered: "I really liked it and I will not hear this about how 'unflattering' the dress was."
Holmes' outfit, on the other hand, was understated chic: a navy shirtdress and long, slicked-back ponytail.
Have a gander at her turn as a fashion policewoman here.

Exquisite shoes
"These are gorgeous shoes! The almond toe and the heel shape are very flattering and elegant. Despite the more "classic" design, the burgundy color and thin heel make them stand out. They're well made and comfortable (not the most comfortable out there, but then again they are 4'' heels) and they run a bit narrow. I am in between sizes (5.5 and 6) but I went ahead and a 6 since 5.5 was not in stock. I added heel liners and they fit perfectly! They are expensive, but in this case the price does indicate high quality craftsmanship not just a big brand name."
