A Princess learned to think like a scientist with the help of a frog at the Kutztown Community Library.
The Yocum Institute for the Arts Education Teen Theater Ensemble performed ôHow to think like a Scientistö June 26 at for the ôFizz, Boom, Readö summer reading program.
ôI loved the program,ö said Joy Newswanger, Youth Librarian at the Kutztown Community Library. ôI loved that Kutztown provided a great audience of children and adults to learn while being entertained.ö
During the play, a Princess meets a talking, thinking frog and learns that she can think like a scientist.
ôI thought the story drama was engaging on many levels so the children were entertained while learning about the basics of science: observation, questions, hypothesis, experiments to test. These are principles we use in our everyday life,ö said Newswanger.
Morgan Kauffman, 19, Schuylkill Valley, portrayed the Princess. Sigmund Frog was portrayed by Dakota Kolbe, 16, Shoemakersville, and the Queen was portrayed by Julia Crozier-Christy, 18, Wyomissing.
ôThe actors were great. The science was valid. It made science fun and ôdramaticö. Even a ôqueenö, ôprincessö and frog can think like a scientist,ö said Newswanger.
During the play, the Princess shouts, ôIĺm a princess. I canĺt wear a lab coat and goggles,ö then quietly admits, ôI canĺt do math.ö
ôOf course, you can do math. The more you practice, the better you become,ö said the Frog. ôDid you catch a ball the first time you threw it? No, you got better with practice. Math is the same.ö
Arguing that thereĺs more to being a princess than living in a castle and wearing dresses, the Frog said thereĺs more to be a scientist than the lab coat and goggles. ôOf course, you can be both.ö
The Frog explained that being a scientist is about observing, questioning, hypothesizing and experimenting.
ôI can be both. I can be a princess and think like a scientist,ö the Princess told her mother, The Queen.
ôIt means sheĺs curious, sheĺs exploring, sheĺs examining,ö said The Frog.
After experiments with determining which balls were the most fun, the play concluded with the Queen crowning the Princess, ôWhen she grew up, she became the Queen and a scientist. After all, she could be both.ö
The play included the use of a magnet to retrieve a ball at the bottom of a well and later the audience conducted their own magnetic experiments, testing how different materials respond to a magnetic field.
ôThe children and adults learned about magnetism in a hands-on way at the program end,ö said Newswanger. ôThis was an unexpected and great bonus for me. I thought this was just going to be a play about ideas. The experiments reinforced the drama with a hands-on activity that was fun education.ö
The next Fizz, Boom, Read program at Kutztown Community Library is July 10, Mad Science! Acids and Bases, making baking soda rockets. Limited to 25. Registration required.

BLOOMFIELD HILLS, Mich. - It's 4:45 p.m. on a beautiful Michigan Friday afternoon that even one of those relentlessly chipper Detroit tourism people couldn't have dreamed up. Sergio Garcia and Phil Mickelson are both even par, one shot out of the lead in the PGA Championship, playing the back nine one group apart.
And the galleries around them are not even consistently one row deep. There's enough open rope space here that Yao Ming could lay completely stretched out on the grass and not touch a soul. If someone's staring at the back of someone's head, they have to be in a concession stand line.
It's 4:45 p.m. on a weekend that's long started in an area where rush hour begins at 3 p.m. and the PGA Learning Center, a setback cool enclave of high-tech teaching and free golf lessons, is largely empty. Maybe eight people are gathered around for a free putting clinic.
It's 4:45 p.m. on the second day of the last major of the season and the PGA Championship Golf Shop - the merchandise center that's six times the size of the Learning Center - is completely packed. Fans duck around displays and each other. The army of cashiers hold up large placards reading "open" so customers can see where there's a free register amongst the rows of madness.
"I don't like golf," Macomb's Debbie Wilcox beams, clutching two full plastic bags of PGA Championship logo merchandise. "But I love pretty shirts."
If you do love golf, you should be very afraid of what's happening at this 90th PGA Championship. It might not be the end of the world as we know it, but you can sure see how you could get there from here.
The lack of noticeable fever - or even a slight sweat - over this major championship is so impossible to miss that even the local media, which usually cheerleads these tournaments with the force of a pep squad on acid, is mentioning it. There are more wild theories floating around about the cause than you get in an Oliver Stone movie.
One Detroit newspaper actually suggested that the fact Detroit's mayor went to jail on Thursday has beaten people down and made them fun-resistant. As if all the suburban fans who are the market for a golf tournament in the middle of the suburbs are torn up over Kwame Kilpatrick's endless drama. Never mind the truth that most of these people go to Bangladesh about as often as they actually venture into downtown Detroit on non-game days or non-casino nights.
More popular than the mayor-mess hangover is the supposed Olympic overshadowing. As if everyone in the Midwest is so fixated on the pre-packed NBC drama - from a games that almost no fans who aren't actually Chinese are attending - that they forgot golf's best players are in their backyard.
Not wanting to be outdone, the European media, largely led by the BBC, is going with the Lee Westwood theory. The idea that the majors just aren't any fun anymore because of these sadistic setup artists (I'd rather just be home on a beach, too, you American dopes).
This one has some merit - when it comes to the excitement level at the course. The PGA of America inexplicably went USGA this year somehow not realizing that the USGA itself abandoned those arcane notions to produce the greatest U.S. Open ever at Torrey Pines.
It's also hard to not like Westwood, who's much more genuinely comical about the whole thing than Phil Mickelson was with his "this is the USGA's wet dream," rant at Oakmont Country Club. When a few on-top-of-it golf fans yell out, "Can you see the sea, Lee?" referring to Westwood's remarks about telling his caddie he could already see the seaside home he'd be escaping to this weekend during round one, Westwood breaks into a big grin.
So, yes, the setup is too hard, not well-thought out and more drama draining than Sylvester Stallone appearing in a movie. That doesn't keep people away from a tournament, though. It might turn them off when they arrive, but it's not causing anyone not to buy tickets.
The harsh reality may be that golf, even major championship golf, doesn't move the needle at all in certain parts of the country. Would the crowds at Oakland Hills Country Club be better if Tiger Woods swung his magic? Sure. But it's doubtful they'd be 50 percent larger or 75 percent more engaged, and even if they somehow were, they still wouldn't come close to Torrey.
Even the people coming to Oakland Hills seem more passionate about getting a "big event" souvenir than watching Garcia or Mickelson come down the stretch.
In some ways, all this disinterest is a shame. For all the flack it takes about being the fourth major, the PGA Championship actually at least stands for something. There are tons of club pros here from all over Michigan and around the country, giving their time to give out free 10-minute lessons at the Learning Center. At least there's a real commitment to something of a cause: trying to keep people golfing.
What's the Masters stand for? A bunch of rich old geezers being able to pretend it's still 1950? What's the U.S. Open all about? Growing the game by growing those tents ever larger? The British Open, somewhat to it's credit, doesn't even really feign to be about some grand socioeconomic scheme - except if it's proving that rain can fall sideways.
Oakland Hills South makes for a great fan experience, too. It's such a crammed together old school track - the No. 11 tee almost touches a 17th green bunker, to the point where Mickelson commented on a nice sand save right before teeing off - that it's easy for spectators to get much closer to the players than is possible on almost any PGA Tour course.
Still, even Phil, Sergio and Anthony Kim don't bring any fan rushes, no mad dashes from spot to spot.
This is like watching a major played on Mars. Seeing this scene, those who love golf should feel chills. Just not the good kind.

Chris Baldwin keeps one eye on the PGA Tour and another watching golf vacation hotspots and letting travelers in on the best place to vacation.
Davis Love III, who played the final 57 holes of the Children's Miracle Network Classic without a bogey, finished at 25-under 263 in the season-ending event played at the Walt Disney World Golf Resort in Florida. It has been a long road back for Love, who severely sprained his ankle late last year. After tearing ligaments, he needed surgery, and he's spent much of this year rehabilitating the injury.

Qualified indefeasibility and the careless mortgagee
Backstrom, Michelle & Christensen, Sharon A. (2011) Qualified indefeasibility and the careless mortgagee. Australian Property Law Journal, 19(2), p. 109.
Accepted Version
(MS Word 159kB)
Administrators only | Request a copy from author
In recent years a great deal of case law has been generated in relation to mortgages where the mortgagee has not engaged in adequate identity verification of the mortgagor and the mortgage has subsequently been found to be forged. As a result, careless mortgagee provisions operate in Queensland as an exception to indefeasibility. Similar provisions are expected to commence soon in New South Wales. This article examines the mortgagee's position with the benefit of indefeasibility and then considers the impact of the careless mortgagee provisions on the rights of a mortgagee under a forged mortgage, concluding that the provisions significantly change the dynamic between a registered mortgagee and registered owner who has not signed the mortgage. These provisions appear to give the mortgagee a conditional indefeasibility, with the intention of reducing the State's exposure to the payment of compensation in the case of identity fraud. They are however, more successful in the case of forgery by a third party rather than forgery by a co-owner.

This rates up close to those who wish to clean their loaded handguns while drinking.

The Associated Press
BELLEVUE, Ky. (AP) — A group which had left a northern Kentucky bar with Christopher Luttrell feared the worst when their friend went for a late-night swim in the Ohio River.
The friends called police at about 11:45 p.m. Tuesday. Police called out water rescue teams from Boone and Campbell counties, the U.S. Coast Guard and the Bellevue Fire Department.
The Kentucky Enquirer reported Luttrell's father came down to the riverbank, worried about his 26-year-old son.
Just before 4 a.m. Wednesday, police said Luttrell called his father to say he swam to the Cincinnati side and was safe.
Police Maj. Lee Estepp says he plans to talk to the prosecutor about possible charges.
Estepp said people just don't drink and swim because authorities are afraid they will drown.

Well, how do you fare compared to the Zeitgeist?
Chat up your fellow wooters and let us know how lame this poll was or what obvious choices we missed.
For example: Was this poll a) STUPID, b) DUMB, c) POINTLESS or d) ALL OF THE ABOVE?
I am married to a redhead with two red-haired daughters. Sunscreen is a requirement.
My kids are 31 & 32, so it's up to them.
I'm allergic to sunscreen which sucks because no one ever takes that into consideration when they are spraying down their kids or themselves. Almost anywhere public in the summer people spray sunblock like they're doing everyone else a favor by coating them in it too.
My kid will most likely wear it for his sake, not mine.I also wont be able to let him touch me and I won't be coating anyone else with it.

ryanfolty (239) Bourbon County, Minnesota | December 30, 2012
Finally got a chance to hit up our favorite place to score some brews while in school. I remember this place being nicer inside, seems kind of dumpy now. Nice selection of brews and prices were very good. There were a few things noticeably cheaper than Binnys. Sentimental factor gives this a higher overall rating.
mualumnus (10) Skokie, Illinois | September 6, 2011
A nice singles selection, and a very good selection of craft beers overall. With the Chicago area lacking places that offer singles, Famous stands out as one of the better beer stores in the area.
Thorpe429 (58) , Illinois | September 1, 2011
Quality: Good. Everything seems to be pretty new, and they definitely turn over the build a sixpack inventory pretty quickly, so I dont really worry about freshness there. Service: Ive never really had anyone come up to me and ask if I needed help, which I dont have too much of a problem with. The problem is that the way the store is set up, the guys stocking the place are constantly coming right through the craft aisle (which is quite narrow) with carts full of cases of BMC and the like--gets to be kind of a pain. Selection: This place has always got plenty of local six packs as well as pretty good stuff from around the country. This is especially with regard American crafts. The Beglian selection is a little weak, although they do have a few nice items. What I really like is the constantly well-stocked inventory for building a six pack, or just buying a single bottle or two. Nothing like stopping a couple days a week and deciding which bottle or two you want to try that night. Value: Prices are quite reasonable. This is by far the cheapest place to buy Rochefort around here that I have found ($5, $5, and $6 for 6, 8, and 10, respectively).
JAYAR1 (2) GLEN ELLYN, Illinois | May 1, 2011
UNLIKE BINNYS(ge & dg), YOU HAVE A SIGNIFICANT SELECTION OF SINGLES HERE. AMBIENCE IS NEGLIGIBLE! AMBIENCE DOESNT HELP ME SELECT BEER. THE PLACE IS CLEAN AND BEER IS ON A SHELF OR IN COOLERS. SELECTION IS ON PAR WITH BINNYS + OR-. BEST OF ALL, ITS CLOSE TO THE CASA!! SERVICE IS THERE IF YOU NEED IT.
theisti (881) Kansas | April 10, 2011| Updated September 8, 2014
I had a later afternoon flight out, and a meeting on this side of town and wanted to visit Lunar brewing. To kill time, I hit a few of the local bottle shops listed in the area. Big space in a strip mall. Big selection, both in coolers and on racks. Focus is mostly on domestic craft - they had some labels I hadnt seen at other stores (Southern Star was the one I remember). Import selection wasnt great, though had a bunch of obscure countries is thats your thing. They singled out a ton of beers, though prices seemed a bit inflated on those. Overall, cool store, well worth the visit if you are in the area. They had a nice fine food / deli selection as well.
76 = ★★★ (Worth the visit, must for locals, and visitors with time)
I only use the total score, not the component parts.
monkeychugg55 (30) Joliet, Illinois | April 3, 2009| Updated December 5, 2009
Very nice selection of singles and bombers. They got about everything you can get in the area. Wonderful selection of single priced bottles for the avid rater.
tmohr (3) Illinois | March 12, 2009| Updated November 16, 2010
Unpretentious place with an excellent selection of beers. Much easier to get out of the parking lot since they added another exit.
Headbanger (98) Aurora, Illinois | October 29, 2008
Was looking for an older Two Bros and they had it and held on to it for me. A decent selection of brews. Great customer service.
ElGaucho (286) Minnetonka, Minnesota | September 22, 2007
Ive been living within 3 miles of this place for 15 months and never really thought to go in there, partly because I dont go by it that much. However, I was very pleasantly surprised. The selection and commitment to beer is better than at the Forest Park location. The beer selection is also better than the Binnys Glen Ellyn, which is where I usually go. The beer to wine space ratio is about 40-60 versus about 25-75 at Binnys. One pleasant surprise was finding the Mikkeller Beer Geek breakfast which I hadnt previously seen anywhere in the Chicago market (or any market for that matter). They have some different stuff like mini-kegs of Baltika 7 and the new Sam Adams Imperial Pils. They also have a make-your-own 6 pack section, which is limited but has quality beers unlike most stores looking to get rid of their crap. Of my 4 go-to West Suburb beer stores: Binnys Glen Ellyn, Sams Downers, Sals Beverage World Elmhurst and now Famous, I like the beer selection at Famous the best and will be frequenting it more often.
JB175 (43) Bucks County, Pennsylvania | October 14, 2006
Grew up right down the road from this place and have since stopped in on return trips to the area. Decent selection of regional micros including Bells, GI special reserve, and others. Nothing amazing, bud did find some good singles that I have never seen on the East Coast

I have spent a lot of time and thought on how to save electricity, but not as much on how to save natural gas. I got a lot of information right from the bills, but I used a cool measuring device to get to some important details.
I have a gas furnace and water heater, and also a gas stove. Sure, I can see how much gas I use from the bill. But what do I do with that information (other than pay the bill?)
I wonder how our gas and electrical usage compare? They are both in dollars, but how does that translate to energy? To get that I need to read the bills and convert to a single unit of energy. Following the excellent model of WattzOn … sort of — they measure power, in Watts — how much power you are using now, and at every moment (watts measures power, which has the time factor, or rate built in).
But here I am looking at the energy that I use over some period of time, like a day, or a month or an hour. So I have decided to measure energy. And so we can compare, I can convert to a standard measure: kilowatt-hours (think: 10 old-fashioned 100W light-bulbs, all on for one hour). When you're talking about things that use energy like water heaters, furnaces, lights, refrigerators, and so on it's more important to think of how much you use them in a given day (or week, or moth, or year). I'll pick "day".
Read Your Gas and Oil Bills
According to our utility bills from the most recent billing cycle:
- Electricity: 616 kWh in the 33 day billing cycle, or 18.6 kWh/day
- Gas: 180 therms in the 25 day billing cycle, or 7.2 therms/day, and 1 therm = 29.3 kWh, so 5274 kWh, or 211 kWh/day
Wow! I used more than 11 times more energy in gas than in electricity. (Maybe I should spend more time focusing on that, especially in the winter!). Ok, how about relative price?
- Electricity: 616 kWh cost a total of $137.69, or $0.22/kWh
- Gas: 5,274 kWh cost a total of $291.03, or $0.05/kWh
Yikes! Electricity is 4 times more expensive than gas. (Maybe I should convert my dryer to gas!)
But that's as much detail as there is to be had from my gas bill. I have put a lot of effort into using less hot water, and we have also put effort into making our house tight and energy efficient. But where I have a Kill-a-Watt and PowerCost Monitor that we can use for real-time electrical use readings, I have nothing like that for gas. I don't know how much my furnace, water heater and stove each use.
There's No Problem That Cannot Be Solved With Legos
Legos? I'll bet you thought I was going to say "coat hanger", or perhaps "swiss army knife". Nope! Read on.
I got creative and built a little device to record when my gas burner and water heater were on and off. And now I have a little information to look at that is far more instructive than a monthly bill. Here's a summary of my findings:
During the gas furnace 24 hour test period, the burner was on for three periods, ranging from 1 hour to 2 hours in duration, for a total of 250 minutes (4 hours 10 minutes). It was an average of 30°F during the time I measured. The gas burner is rated to consume 130,000 BTU/hour, and thus consumed about 542,000 BTUs of gas, or 158.7 kWh (cost: about $7.93).
During the water heater 24 hour test period, the heater was on for seven periods, ranging from 10 minutes to 20 minutes in duration, for a total of 75 minutes, or 1 hour 15 minutes. The water heater is rated to consume 32,000 BTU/hour, and thus consumed 40,000 BTUs of gas, or 11.7 kWh (cost: about $0.59).
Kaazam! I used almost 14 times more gas for heat than for hot water. Said another way, more than 90% of my gas is used to heat the house … in winter.
But there's more. Because I took readings in 5 minute intervals, I can see that my water heater was on 7 times during the day, for 5 to 10 minutes … except for two times during the day when it was on for 20 minutes. It took me a while to figure this out … then I realized that the test was on the day that we have our house cleaned, and they run a few loads of laundry — it seems like we need to post a note telling the cleaners to use the cold water wash cycle :-). So on a typical day, we probably use even less hot water than measured this day.
The furnace came on three times: once in the afternoon for about an hour (first pre-set of programmable thermostat), once again in the evening for about an hour (temp fell below set-point), and once again in the morning for about 2 hours (second pre-set of the thermostat). I see opportunity in this data — it's pretty clear that in winter, our biggest opportunity for saving likely comes from heating. I think it's time for a household energy audit.
The power of measurement and awareness never ceases to amaze me.
Details of My Lego Device
A while back, we bought a Lego Mindstorm robotics kit … for my son and daughter, of course. It has a bunch of sensors (distance, touch, light, sound, etc.), some motors, a little computer called the NXT, and a simple visual programming tool. You can make some really cool robots that move on their own and do various neat things. But you can also build a simple data recorder — all I needed was the light sensor and a little program to write a data file. Every 5 minutes, the program records the light level and saves it to a file on the NXT, and runs for 24 hours. For each test (water heater, furnace) I positioned the light sensor in place where it could "see" the flame of furnace or water heater. After 24 hours, I downloaded the file and read it into Excel and made some pretty graphs.
The main caveat in the data is the granularity of the measurements — it is possible that 1) each period during which there was a measurement, the measurement could have started 5 minutes earlier and ended 5 minutes later, and 2) if the flame was lit for less than 5 minutes, there may have been no reading. The former case is likely, and should be adjusted for the probable error; a typical reading is likely to be under-counted. The latter case, based on observation, does not appear to happen; that is both burners tend to turn on for 5 minutes or more. So I factored this error into my measurements.
Naturally, what I really want is a full-time, real-time device that records and displays data for these two units, as well as for our larger electricity users like the dryer. All on one pretty graph. On the web. It can't cost more than $150. Personally, I think getting the data is the hardest part :-)
Here are some pretty (not!) pictures.

Most workers commute to the office in a zombie-like state, a new survey has found.
Although the average worker sets their alarm for 6.30am, they don't actually feel fully awake until more than three hours later, at 9.40am.
Commuters spend on average almost an hour getting ready, leaving the house by 7.23am.
However, more than 60 per cent say they do not remember their journey to work - and 54 per cent admit to sitting at their desk with a glazed expression even once they have reached the office.
Nine out of ten of the 2,000 people who responded to the survey by Quaker Oats said they operate in a "zombie state" most mornings.
Psychologist Linda Papadopoulos said: "The way our central nervous system functions allows us to be conscious of some things, but others go into autopilot.
"We're so used to going through the motions of what we do every day it's not really something we think about."

Great vets and great staff
My mom has been taking me and my fur-siblings to Dr. Fox since 2007. The staff has always been very nice and very sweet (even when they have to clip my nails...I hate that!!). Mom has dropped us off, called in with an emergency, and dropped in for a quick "hello" and every single time, the staff knows who she is. Mom says that mean that have good customer service. Mom trusts them and knows that they will take care of us! I give them all 4 paws up!
Apache Trail
My Mom has been a loyal client since Aug. 2003, when she moved to Nashville. I have a 17-year-old diabetic brother (cat). The entire staff at Apache has always been sweet and loving, even with grouchy old Puddy! Dr. Fox calls Mom with test results after hours, knowing she's always waiting by the phone for the latest news... Very caring humans, even when I have to have my nails trimmed!posted: January 30th, 2008

THE designers of the Emma Lou Olson Civic Centre at Pompano Beach had not reckoned on a political rally starring the man who would be president.
''It's the first I can recall,'' admitted an attendant in the foyer marvelling at the crowd.
And by the time Mitt Romney scurried forward with his familiar hurried gait - late, and following a warm-up act of 1970s disco hits and hardy patriotic rock - close to 1000 people drawn from the predominantly white, middle-class Florida neighbourhood had squeezed into the centre's modest space.
What they got bordered on pantomime as Mr Romney, closing in on victory over main rival Newt Gingrich in this week's primary, replayed familiar lines from debates and stump speeches across four states.
And the mostly supportive crowd played their role in tones that variously echoed empathy, enthusiasm, even melodrama.
Mr Romney coddled his wife Ann: they cooed.
He introduced the couple's youngest of five sons, Craig, whose white smile could sit on a toothpaste pack: they clapped.
''They really are a beautiful family,'' ventured a middle-aged woman in the crowd: others nodded agreement.
And if they were in any doubt about her husband's bona fides, Ann Romney added her testimony: ''I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis and breast cancer and it's so wonderful to know this guy has just been so supportive and so helpful to me during my struggle.'' They whistled and cheered.
He's also Mr Fixit. ''Every time people run into trouble who do they turn to to pitch? Anything that's going wrong, whether its business or government or the Olympics, they turn to this guy to fix it. And I think America needs to turn around, and see what he can do to fix this country.'' They cheered and stomped.
This was get-to-know the Romneys ahead of Tuesday's primary (tomorrow Melbourne time) and it just got more syrupy as the event proceeded. ''I fell in love with this country as a little boy,'' the 64-year-old frontrunner said. ''Then over my lifetime I have fallen in love with the people of America.'' More cheers.
And as he began to recite the opening lines of the Declaration of Independence they joined in. They chimed in again when he recited America the Beautiful.
He felt their pain, too. Calling for a show of hands of those people who had been touched by Florida's property debacle, a predictable number went up. ''Wow!'' he said, apparently surprised. ''Look at that!''
In among the cheering, Mr Romney promised to cap federal spending, balance the budget, cut taxes. Huh?
''You have to realise,'' said Steve, a local physician, as he shuffled out, ''the average American only has a seventh grade education.''
Outside, vendors were plying campaign paraphernalia. Sasha Reul had tailed the Republicans through South Carolina and Florida, flogging T-shirts, hats and bumper stickers.
She scores well at Romney and Gingrich rallies, although she likes Rick Santorum.But in 2008 she didn't vote. ''I didn't want Obama,'' she said. ''I actually wanted to vote for [John] McCain but I couldn't vote for Sarah Palin [his running mate]. You might say I faced a moral dilemma.''

Definetely stock. looks identical to when i bought my car. The exhaust sounds louder after you have been running it for awhile vs just starting it for the first time so that could be where your friend was confused. then again i cant hear it to be the judge. ill take a picture of my exhaust in about 30 min when im off work.

smart "apt" command
During evaluating Jessie, I found 'apt' command and noticed it was pretty good for novice-usual users.
Usage: apt [options] command CLI for apt. Basic commands: list - list packages based on package names search - search in package descriptions show - show package details update - update list of available packages install - install packages remove - remove packages upgrade - upgrade the system by installing/upgrading packages full-upgrade - upgrade the system by removing/installing/upgrading packages edit-sources - edit the source information file
'apt list' is like a combination of 'dpkg -l' + 'apt-cache pkgnames'. 'apt search' is a bit slower than 'apt-cache search' but provides with useful information. 'apt show' formats bytesizes and hides some (for experts) fields. install/remove/upgrade/full-upgrade are mostly same as apt-get. 'apt edit-sources' opens a editor and checks the integrity.
So, I'd like to recommend 'apt' command to Debian users.
Well, why did I write this entry...? ;) I found a mistranslation I had made in ja.po of apt. Because it is critical mistranslation (Japanese users will confuse by it), I want to fix it strongly.
Dear apt deity maintainers, could you consider to update apt for Jessie? (#772678. FYI there are other translation updates also: #772913, #771982, and #771967)

Bug #668001
If the bug title of #668001 was not "debootstrap: cant install systemd instead of sysvinit", but was like "debootstrap ignores everything from the first pipe character to the end of Depends/Pre-Depends line.", it would be treated more carefully ;)
My patch posting #20 aims to fix it.
Well, I wish this bug will be solved on jessie+1 or backports.

With Steve's kind help, I got a place to put my backport debian-installer images at Debian official CD host cdimage.debian.org.

Adios Debconf9
I backed home from Madrid yesterday. I had a precious time in this trip.
La Coruna, where was the place I visited first, had a beautiful beach. I was relaxed a long time there and adopt myself to Spain, though sunburn was a bit painful. (hey, I'm molting!) Galician octopus was the best I ate ever. Thanks my friend Kazuhisa.
I stayed at Madrid before/after Debconf. Because it was the second time I visited there, I could behave like a tour conductor for my friends :-P Plada museum, Sophia museum, and Toredo were nice to see. Foods were really nice also.
Debconf9, you know, was the best. I met and talked with many people; old friends, new friends, local people, and so on. Every sessions were fun. i18n meeting was hot. Day-trip provided me hiking, swimming, drinking, and talking. It would be hard challenge to prepare and coordinate for organization team and local staff, but you succeeded perfectly! I'd like to say thank orga, staff, and all attendees. See you!
Tue, 30 Jun 2009
Oh my...
Yesterday Debconf provisional schedule was announced. Thanks Debconf team for your hard work!
But I understood I couldn't attend some interesting sessions and keysign party due to my schedule... I have to leave Caceres on 29 July afternoon. I made a big mistake about my travel plan.
OK, so I'll try to exchange keysign personally during the conference and watch the talks later when Debconf video team create them.

Working for ext4 support
I had gotten some requests to support brand-new ext4 filesystem from my backport d-i users. Yesterday I implemented it. Download via previous article.
The work was harder than I assumed...
- The implementation on d-i side was mostly done already on d-i trunk by cjwatson and otavio. I appreciate their good job! I merged it to partman-base and partman-ext3.
- Because GNU parted in Lenny didn't support ext4, I had to backport from unstable. Plus, I had to build again some packages to follow ABI change.
- e2fsprogs-udeb in Lenny didn't contain mkfs.ext4, though deb contained it. I backported from unstable for stability.
- grub won't work with ext4. You have to use grub-pc instead of it, if you'd like to use ext4 for root (boot) partition. I left this issue alone and just wrote down FAQ.
- Even you choose grub-pc, it won't boot because initramfs misrecognizes ext4 partition as ext3. You have to append "rootfstype=ext4" option to kernel parameter. I wrote it on FAQ.
i386/amd64 d-i images for Lenny, kernel version 2.6.30 + firmware + ext4 support
For those who would like to use Linux kernel 2.6.30 for installing Debian Lenny, here it is. Enjoy.
- Debian 5.0.1 Lenny based.
- Linux Kernel 2.6.30 (as same as Debian unstable)
- Support IDE disk again. (yes, I hadn't noticed ide-disk renamed to ide-gd_mod)
- pre-located firmware (linux-firmware package will be installed if d-i detects your machine needs it. This image supports bnx2 and bnx2x also)
- experimental WPA support (not tested)
- [update on 28 Jun] Added ext4 support. You can choose ext4 filesystem at partition manager screen. Don't try to use ext4 for your root partition (or see FAQ).
By the way,
Thu, 11 Jun 2009

Opensource technology study meeting at GREE
Hideki Yamane and Nobuhiro Iwamatsu talked about Debian Project last Friday at GREE was one of famous SNS providers in Japan. GREE uses Debian GNU/Linux on large scale for its services.
Hideki, is active Debian Maintainer, talked that using Debian was pretty easy and welcomed every contributors. He also described how Debian Project was managing release, QA, and buildd for a large audience.
Nobuhiro, just passed NM tests and is awaiting final DAM's check, spoke about NM process with his personal experience. He is one of Linux kernel upstream developers and has good knowledges about embedded system programmings and device drivers. I hope he passes DAM's check early to improve Debian more.
I met and talked with some people who were interesting in Debian after the meeting. Yes, I enjoyed that time.

Debian GNU/Linux device driver check & report version 2.0
I updated Web service 'Debian HCL - Debian GNU/Linux device driver check & report page' is an easy tool to check and see the support status of your hardware on GNU/Linux, with many improved features.
Integrating the check page and submitted reports is convenience. The vendor tree view will make easier to find models what you'd like to see. Although Searching isn't implemented yet, I think new URL structure is friendly to search engine crawlers. I'll put Google search form on the page after Google crawls.
Handling your submission is semi-automatic periodically. So please don't submit again and again even it won't be shown soon. :)
This service is localized in English, Japanese, French, Spanish, Spanish-Argentina, Italian, Polish, German, Portguese, and Chinese (simplified) at this time, by using your Web browser language information. Because I introduced the GNU gettext system for internationalizing, it's easy to translate and update the translations. You can take template.pot file and translate in your language. If you'd like to translate in your language, please tell me. Have a fun!

Melbourne, Australia (SportsNetwork.com) - Novak Djokovic and David Ferrer cruised to victories Sunday in the fourth round of the men's draw at the Australian Open.
The second-seeded Djokovic, looking to become the first player to win four straight Aussie Open crowns, steamrolled Italy's Fabio Fognini, the No. 15 seed, in straight sets, 6-3, 6-0, 6-2, at Rod Laver Arena. Djokovic fired off seven aces and converted on six break points in the match, which lasted just over 90 minutes.
The dominant Serbian has won all four matches in straight sets and moved to 7-0 all-time against Fognini.
"I felt from the start of this tournament that I've been elevating my game as the tournament is going on. Every match is better," Djokovic said.
One of the more entertaining matches in last year's Aussie Open saw Stanislas Wawrinka nearly stun Djokovic in the round of 16. Djokovic prevailed 12-10 in the fifth set of the five-hour, two-minute marathon.
Wawrinka won on Day 7 to set up a rematch in the quarterfinals.
The eighth-seeded Swiss, who received a walkover in the third round following Vasek Pospisil's withdrawal due to a back injury, battled past 17th-seeded Spaniard Tommy Robredo 6-3, 7-6 (7-3), 7-6 (7-5).
Ferrer, meanwhile, defeated Germany's Florian Mayer, 6-7 (5-7), 7-5, 6-2, 6-1. After dropping the first set in the tiebreaker, the third-seeded Ferrer bounced back to win eight of 15 possible break points. Ferrer committed 43 unforced errors, but was aided by Mayer, who had 49 unforced mistakes.
Up next for the Spaniard will be Tomas Berdych.
The seventh-seeded Czech made quick work of Kevin Anderson, beating the 19th seed in straight sets, 6-2, 6-2, 6-3. Berdych improved to 10-0 against Anderson, who was looking to become the first South African man to reach the quarterfinals at a Grand Slam since Wayne Ferreira's semifinal run at the 2003 Aussie Open.

The iPad 2 saw the familiar long lines of consumers fighting to get into Apple Stores this weekend to be first on the block with the hot new item.
By Sunday, the iPad 2 was all but sold out at Apple Stores and other retailers.
"Demand for the next-generation iPad 2 has been amazing," Apple said in a statement. "We are working hard to get iPad 2 into the hands of every customer who wants one as quickly as possible."
Orders online are backlogged "three to four weeks," Apple says.
Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster projects opening weekend sales of around 500,000 of the new iPad, which starts at $499 and sports a thinner lighter body, a faster processor and two built-in cameras.
The first iPad has sold more than 15 million units.

Google widens access to Israel's Holocaust archives
By Allyn Fisher-Ilan
JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Search engine giant Google launched a massive archive retrieval project with Israel's national Holocaust museum on Wednesday with the aim of easing public access to Nazi-era documents and photographs.
The project was unveiled on the eve of a global day of remembrance for the six million Jewish Holocaust victims, marked annually on January 27.
Officials at Google and Yad Vashem, the Israeli museum founded in the early 1950s, hope the wider use of the Internet to research the greatest tragedy in Jewish history will keep the memory alive and also add to their own knowledge on the subject.
"There are many more important stories out there. If we don't capture them, they could be lost," said Yossi Matias, director of research and development for Google Israel.
To try to prevent that, whenever people search for victims' names on Google they will be encouraged to add their own details about the person to the archived material, for example, by helping to identify photographs, Matias told Reuters.
To set the project in motion, Google has indexed some 130,000 photographs and documents ranging from visas to transport lists and testimonials from survivors, and thousands more may be loaded at a later stage, he said.

The Evening of the Holiday (1966)
by Shirley Hazzard
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Elegant, sophisticated writing,
By sally tarbox on 22 Oct. 2012
Format: Paperback
Beautiful, evocative descriptions abound in this work set in Tuscany.
A romance gradually kindles between middle aged, married Tancredi and young Sophia, to a backdrop of 1950s (?) Italy. I was particularly struck by the chapter where Sophia has arranged to meet him outside a town where a fiesta is taking place and where the vividly rendered procession means she is hemmed in and fears she will miss him.
Classy style, but like another reviewer, I must agree that it doesn't leave any lasting impression.
I felt as if I was looking for direction in this book. I couldn't work out in the first half or so where Hazzard was wanting to take the reader. Was this a sort of Forster-like unfolding of the clash between the Italian and English temperaments? What were we meant to feel about Sophie? Was Hazzard commenting on aspects of society? I wasn't sure.
I liked the way she quite forthrightly damned the absurdity of the festival in the place where Sophie was saying as all the towns-people celebrated a battle that they had lost, dressing up in medieval costumes and brandishing ancient weapons, 'all magnificent in array, austere in expression, unshakable in purposelessness'. The way she builds up that sentence only to end it with the reversal at the end makes the condemnation all the more effective.
Perhaps some of my uncertainty about the direction of the book comes from what seems to be autobiographical detail, whether the description of the stone parapet of the Lungaro being 'exactly the right height for leaning' or the way 'the telephone a shattering few terminal cries' when she replaced the receiver in her hotel. These sort of details made me wonder how far Sophie was Hazzard and how far the author was crafting her story. Why, for example, does Hazzard give us what Tancredi was wearing on one of their outings: 'cotton trousers and a blue shirt'? I don't think this adds anything. On the other hand the description of the hands everyone had out in front of them at the table in Nestore's house seemed much more meaningful, used by Hazzard not just to differentiate between the cosseted lifestyle of Sophie whose hands are described last: 'shapely and soft, the nails carefully painted' but between the rural workers themselves, if only to distinguish what sort of hard work they did: 'Nestore's, almost as broad as they were long; Filomena's and Nelda's, reddened and not realy in repose, stealing an unaccustomed holiday'.
This, of course, was the first of Hazzard's four novels. She was 35 when this was published in 1966, a time of significant change in young people's outlooks but she had grown up in a much more conventional time and so I wonder both what influence her up and the contemporary scene made to the way she wrote this book. Perhaps, in fact, she had been immuned to the social changes in the sixties since she seems to have made the separation of Tancredi (always referred to by his surname?) and Sophie inevitable, the result of the illegality of divorce in Italy as well as social expectations even though, Sophie, harking from England, would hardly have been condemned then. We are left, then, with tying to work out how Hazzard wants us to feel about the couple's separation – and I'm afraid I was left nonplussed, having been uninvolved in either of them, and I can't think of any way in which Hazzard tried to engage the reader with them. This was a novel whose success relied on her effective style and an intellectual appraisal of the situation rather than on a more emotional response.
From the cover - Sophie, half English, half Italian, meets Tancredi, an Italian who is separated from his wife and family. In telling the story of their love affair, Shirley Hazzard punctures the placid surface of polite Italian society to reveal the intense yearnings and surprising responses in sophisticated people caught up in emotions they do not always understand.
I found this an undemanding read during a busy week, but enjoyed how the author's use of language created credible, flawed characters and how they dealt with the conflicting emotions they experienced.

Christmas Eve, 24th December 2011 – Adam took me out for a surprise breakfast, saying it would be nice to do this every Christmas Eve together as a new tradition of ours. During a walk along our local beach, Adam proposed.
The Proposal
Not knowing where I was about to be driven, we ended up at our local beach, where we practically spent the whole Summer on our days off together. On the seafront stands a beautiful 18th century Victorian house - now a hotel - overlooking the English channel, where Adam had arranged our special Christmas Eve breakfast...
Before going in, we decided to take a walk along the front as it was such a beautiful, sunny (and freezing cold!) day. During our walk, Adam proposed and presented me with a beautiful diamond ring.
He didn't go down on one knee.
But after asking me if he should have, and after I teased him he should have done it properly, he got down on one knee.
And asked me again.
There were lots of tears, and I said YES!
We had a wonderful breakfast in the hotel – of tea and chocolate cake ( yes, he knows me too well!) and went home to my family where champagne and strawberries were waiting for us (he had asked my Dad for my hand a month before!). It was a truly special Christmas Eve.
The Ring
The ring is a bespoke-made Rose Gold engagement ring, a single white diamond to the centre with 6 claws holding it. The design is very contemporary, with the unusual Rose Gold offering a vintage feel. Adam chose Rose Gold because I have a beautiful necklace left to me by my Nan which is Rose Gold with a Smoky Quartz stone, which I absolutely adore.
He had the ring especially made at Ortwin Thyssen – a handmade bespoke jewellers, in Canterbury, Kent. Chosen partly because Adam liked the fact it was a local independent company – that it was very much like my own business, and of course because he liked their style and design. The workshop is actually situated inside the showroom, so you can view the jewellery being made before you.
Adam had a consultation with Ortwin to discuss the design of my ring; he even showed me design drawings, which was really touching - and being a designer, lovely to see!
On my birthday in January, we went to get the ring re-sized as it was just a fraction too big. Now it fits me perfectly! I fell in love with the shop on my first visit – it was wonderful to meet Ortwin and to view beautiful jewellery being handmade!
I'll be writing many more blog posts - I am so excited to share many of our wedding plans and details here on the Atelier Rousseau blog in due course. Meanwhile, you can follow our wedding day inspiration and ideas on our Pinterest board – which is updated almost daily!

Goodyear GS D3s - Not Impressed, yet
Well I finally found someone that could swap ot my run flats without scratching the rims. I went with the GS-D3s. So far, after 1 day and 40 miles in dry conditions, they do not handle hard corners as well - the rear end gets happy and kicks out much easier than with the runcraps. What gives? I am hoping that after a few hundred miles they will improve? Could the extra weight of a spare and a jack in the trunk have anything to do with the happy rear (I would think not; the extra weight should keep the rear planted more, not less, right?) I know others on here have been very happy with these tires . . . thanks
Re: Goodyear GS D3s - Not Impressed, yet
hmm, i've heard nothing but good things about the GS-D3 from all sorts of applications. They were going to be my next set of tires.
Re: Goodyear GS D3s - Not Impressed, yet
They will improve with time.
My thoughts are that the aggressive tread requires a molding process that creates a "cap" of hard rubber on the top of the tire. Mine were waaaaayyyyy better after the 2nd install (200+ miles on the first install before wheel widening).
Hang in there - they get a lot better - but they're never as sticky as the F1's (hence the shorter than acceptable, IMHO, tire life on the stockers)
Re: Goodyear GS D3s - Not Impressed, yet
I'm a couple of weeks in and am really happy. I went wide in the back and am really happy with that also.16 ATS-V | 12 CTS-V | 12 SRX | 05 CTS-V (sold)
Re: Goodyear GS D3s - Not Impressed, yet
I'd 'heard around' some people were using higher tire pressures to firm up the more supple sidewalls. Don't know what their extended reviews are regards this - thinking tire wear. It would seem to me if there is a difference in manufacturer's recommended on the GS-D3, and the chasis recommended spec'ing the F1's; this might require discovery to find what works. Again, I'm looking forward to seeing what people running the D3s have learned since their last posts. ( like wildwhl there ^)
Re: Goodyear GS D3s - Not Impressed, yet
When mine are warm they run about 33 psi. The only difference from the F1's I've noticed is that it's really easy to tell I have more meat in back. 275's in back, just do it.16 ATS-V | 12 CTS-V | 12 SRX | 05 CTS-V (sold)

Re: Goodyear GS D3s - Not Impressed, yet
Ames, are you running more tire pressure to compensate for the sidewalls or just the recommended 30PSI cold?

Re: Goodyear GS D3s - Not Impressed, yet
I agree with Wild, and felt the same way when I first had the GSD3's put on. Turn in is not as responsive and won't be. That's the only trade off. The run flats have a much harder sidewall and gives more agressive turn in.
Give them a few hundred miles. The positives are Smokey burnouts and a quieter softer ride. Increase the cold pressure to 35, hot they will run up to about 39 -40. That will help your tun in, and ride quality is still great.

Re: Goodyear GS D3s - Not Impressed, yet
OK, I've restrained myself from commenting on the GS D3's. I'm new here, and a lot of people like them, but this forum is for sharing, and learning and well, at the risk of serious flaming, here goes.
I retired from racing 15 years ago. My last form of sanctioned motorized mayhem was Land Speed racing on motorcycles (El Mirage and Bonneville). Ever thrown a 1/4 mile long rooster tail on a turbo bike on wet salt at 193 mph while the bike is shaking it's head and the gyro effect on the wheels is so strong you pull a bicep muscle trying to control it with one hand while your other hand is turning the trim dial on the fuel metering as you keep an eye on the EGT gauge? It's the ultimate!
Anyway, I was in the motorcycle industry and well hooked up. I had full tire sponsorship from Michelin, and made a friend at the company that I still keep up with today. We used Formula1 tires on the bike because they could handle the 200 mph speeds and were sticky. I have had many discussions with my tire friend, including about car tires.
I used to road race too, and back in the mid-90's I got some Yokohama tires that had the same kind of big "V" tread pattern as the D3's on my modded Mustang GT. My car was set up for handling big time, not drag. I noticed right away that the tires let go sooner than the stock non-supercar F1's I had before. While the tires communicated the impending loss of traction very well, and were quite controllable in 2 or 4 wheel drifts, they flat out didn't hold as well, even though the tread compound was soft and sticky. So I had a long chat with my tire friend.
He said that those "V" treads are about marketing, not performance. They look aggressive as hell and people like that, but those long, skinny tread blocks that make up the 'ribs' of the "V" are just that--skinny. They squirm, they wiggle as it were. If you look at any of the highest rated non-slick dry tires, DOT legal or not, they always have big, really big, square'ish tread blocks. Reason? These big blocks are solid structures, they don't wiggle and squirm.
All intermediate and wet tires on ultimate performance cars (Formula1, IRL, CHAMP, etc., any series that runs in the rain) have the same big block design. If there are any 'ribs' they extremely thick.
Look at what are arguably three of the highest performance dry tires available today,
Michelin Pilot Sport PS2
Yokohama ADVAN Neova AD07
BF Goodrich g-Force T/A KD
All three of these tires have massive tread blocks.
What I was feeling was the tire treads instability, they had a lower limit because if its squirming, it isnt working. This squirm is often felt as a less responsive turn in, less sharp transitions, and lower overall traction.
And the V isnt about wet weather traction either. For that, you need longitudinal tread grooves, the deep, unbroken grooves of any all season tire. The V tread lacks those channels.
So I had to ask, why does Michelin make the Pilot Sport with a V shaped pattern? Well, its not a true V like the GS D3. There are two full circumference grooves in the center of the tire, the ribs of the V are much less sharply angled (therefore much shorter) and are much thicker than a D3, the ribs are also broken by what are basically big sipes, and the big outside shoulder blocks extend further into the tread area than D3s (where the blocks are on the sidewall, not much into the tread itself). He basically said that the Pilot Sport was a compromise, a nod to the marketing department with the sort of V shape, but retaining enough tread block stability to keep the engineers happy.
Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3
Michelin Pilot SPort
So thats what I have learned and hereby relate. I completely understand why people need and want a tire that is A) Cheaper than the extremely expensive OEM tires, B) lasts longer than only part of a year even under normal driving, and C) has a softer sidewall for straight line traction and comfort. But Id rather go for the PS2, AD07, or T/A KDs. THIS IS ONLY AN OPINION AND MY PREFERANCE, this is not intended to dis anyone or slam anyone, or flame any particular tire. There is nothing wrong with the D3s, but Im not surprised that someone posted about the loss of grip at the higher end of the chart.

Re: Goodyear GS D3s - Not Impressed, yet
All good points. I've got 4k miles on the GS-D3s. 35psi cold works best. They needed a few hundred miles from new before sticking well. Although they give up a bit of dry traction to the stock F1s, they do offer significantly better resistance to hydroplanning and appear to wear 2x better.
In the past, I've seen tests in magazines which didn't seem to show a correlation between V-shaped grooves and grip. My personal preference is actually traditional, so I didn't buy the GS-D3s for looks. My first choice was Michelin PS2, however those are not in the exact size. Perhaps for the next set.
Re: Goodyear GS D3s - Not Impressed, yet
ntechnic, no slamming from me. I've posted similar comments in the past but have been widely ignored. I'd say ignorance is bliss but the GS-D3 is a good tire and rated highly by the TireRack and backed up by the people who own them.
But there are inherent qualities that just can't be fully overcome in certain tread designs. I also was a Yokohama junkie in the mid 90's. I still am a fan of Yokohama. But after owning AVS Intermediates and Nexus tires, I was highly disappointed in the AVS Sports which had the funky Y design. The Advan Neova AD07 looks really good. But like you said, large blocks and/or large continuous ribs are going to be the best handlers.
But hey, what do I know?

Sri Lanka's Semifinal Win Guarantees New Twenty20 World Champion
Sri Lanka defeated Pakistan by 16 runs to become the first host nation to reach the final of cricket's World Twenty20 tournament.
The Sri Lankan bowlers stifled Pakistan in Colombo last night, holding the opposition to 31 runs in the last five overs and a total of 123-7 in reply to the host nation's 139-4 off its 20 overs.
Sri Lanka, which has lost three finals at International Cricket Council tournaments in the past five years, will face the winner of today's second semifinal between Australia and the West Indies in two days. Pakistan's defeat means there will be a new world champion in cricket's shortest format.
"It's an amazing feeling," Sri Lanka captain Mahela Jayawardene, who was also named man of the match, said in comments on the tournament's website. "At the beginning of the match, we felt that 140 was a par score, not a winning score. It was a challenge."
Jayawardene won the toss and elected to bat, combining with fellow opener Tillakaratne Dilshan for 63 runs before getting caught on 42 by Raza Hasan off Shahid Afridi. Dilshan made 35 before he was trapped leg before wicket by Umar Gul.
Pakistan, which beat Sri Lanka in the 2009 World Twenty20 final, brought on Gul and Saeed Ajmal to bowl the last five overs and pressure the batsmen. The plan restricted the Sri Lankans to 23 runs until the final over, which went for 16 runs.
With Pakistan chasing the second-lowest semifinal victory target in the event's four editions, Sri Lanka fast bowler Lasith Malinga gave up only 19 runs in his four overs. That included five from the second-last set of the match to leave Pakistan needing 23 from the final six balls.
Top Wicket-Taker
Rangana Herath claimed 3-25. Fellow spinner Ajantha Mendis took 2-17 to join Australia's Shane Watson with a tournament- leading 11 wickets. Captain Mohammad Hafeez led Pakistan with 42 runs, while Umar Akmal finished 29 not out.
"We lost some wickets in the middle order and that is the reason we could not get back into the game," Hafeez said. "I believe 140 should have been chased, but unfortunately we could not do that."
In addition to losing the 2009 Twenty20 final at Lord's, Sri Lanka was beaten in the 2007 and 2011 one-day World Cup finals, by Australia and India, respectively.
Unlike the previous three, Sri Lanka will have home advantage this time at Colombo's R Premadasa Stadium.
"Four finals is amazing," added Jayawardene. "One final was in Barbados, one final was in England and the last final was in Mumbai. This time we are playing at the Premadasa, and we will approach it differently."

A drunk driver who crashed his Rolls-Royce into Tesco's because he had a grudge against the company was today jailed for 16 months.
obert Caton, 50, had downed two bottles of whisky before he ploughed the luxury car into the front window of the store in Andover, Hampshire, in May this year.
Winchester Crown Court heard that Caton had asked a security guard how long it would take to evacuate the building shortly before he got behind the wheel and made two attempts to crash into the store as terrified shoppers fled.
Six women suffered cuts, bruising and shock and one woman, who was 20 weeks' pregnant and had already suffered two miscarriages, needed to go to hospital.
The court heard that unemployed Caton, who suffers from depression, was angry with Tesco because he had saved up for a bed and cupboard for his three-year-old son but a mattress he thought would come with it did not arrive.
Caton pleaded guilty at an earlier hearing to dangerous driving and failing to provide a breath specimen.
