I'll do that.
Google's first result not provided by Power Plate was
which is quite negative on Power Plate.
The next non-PP hit said its benefit lies in keeping football players' muscles warmer during halftime, lessening their second half performance degradation.
The third non-commercial hit,
, was, overall, another vote against PP because of its dubious benefit and potential harm.
I've used both PP briefly (for rehab) and Body Blades (for rehab and conditioning), and found the latter to fry my muscles much more effectively.
The TRX approach is a whole 'nuther ball game, with obvious benefits. Everyone should try that out at whatever level they feel comfortable with. I did that and similar exercises on a wide variety of weighted cables, TRX straps, trapeze, monkey bars, etc. for four, sometimes six, hours continuously 3 days a week for several winters. My gym's professional football and hockey team trainers, bodybuilding and powerlifting competitors and trainers, and one med student/trainer/athlete constantly kidded me -- often not kidding -- about the intensity, duration, and even the risk level of my TRX and related exercises. Some of my more imaginative exercises worried them, but they added so much fun and variety and/or useful benefit that I kept on doing them. Two examples of the ones that worried trainers (and probably the gym lawyer) are pullups hanging inverted from fixed cables and a variety of exercises combining plyometrics with weighted cables to produce big flying leaps which had the trainers calling me "Superman" as they scrambled to clear the area over a 10-foot radius. Those are about as close to jumping a windsurfer as I can simulate in the gym and fry most muscles plus my oxygen delivery system to 100% of their theoretical capacity. It's just one of many exercises I do in the gym to drive my pulse and respiration rates well beyond 100% of the old-fashioned "220-your age" guidelines.
Just thinking about cranking up the volume and beat of the iPod music in my ears to drown out the noise of my maxed-out heartbeat and breathing effort elevates both a bit and makes me want to get back in the gym before the WSing season ends. It's really a kick in the ass to read a book on serious fitness training, try an exercise the book says is the pinnacle of its whole program, and find that I can do it not only well, but in some cases easily even today ... despite having been born during WW II. One core training book said its toughest challenge was doing pushups in the TRX cables, without the straps touching our body except at the hands, with feet elevated well above head level, on only one foot with the other leg raised in the air, with a rigid, straight body. It was so simple I don't waste time on it.
To the peanut gallery: that's not about me, and it's not boasting. It's an attempt to motivate more people to get off the couch and away from the old-fashioned, boring, hazardous (oops!), almost always incorrectly performed rut/routines most gym rats do and most trainers teach. I've asked many trainers about Superslow and TRX and interval training and Tabatas and lifting to total failure and other such gutbusters, and every one has said something like, "Well, of
those are superior, but almost none of our clients (it's a big gym with clientele from 10 to 100 years old) are willing to work that hard, even for 15-30 minutes per week."
As you know, Ron, that's their loss. But be careful ... every time I try a new bunch of exercises to maintain both interest and benefit, my 69-yo tendons and muscles find one or two specific exercises they do not like. I had to abandon plyometric pushups, in which both hands and both feet leave the floor as high as possible with every pushup, because they inflamed my knees and shoulders. We gotta use some common sense to separate the things we must ease into from those we really shouldn't be doing at all. And as you know, our bodies adapt to any exercise routine within just several weeks, greatly diminishing its effectiveness so that we not only stop gaining but even lose ground unless we find new ways to challenge our bodies. A friend who has done the same Nautilus routine for decades is wasting away to just skin and bones.
Anything we can do to make workouts less boring and stultifying will help motivate and benefit us.

I most certainly don't research ... Doesn't need to be complicated. Going to a good trainer is worth more than reading books as they have first hand experience but of course like going to a good car mechanic the trainer needs to be good.
If I HAD done even the most basic cancer reading -- just the most elemental stuff everyone should know before they reach 40 -- my life expectancy would be another 24 years. Instead, I trusted my primary care physician, whose incompetence we now know let my cancer spread for two to three years before he even notified me of it. Result: Today I can sail HARD for 10 hours in one day in raging 3.5 conditions, but I expect to be incapacitated within 5 years and dead within 7.
Do your own homework, as your life may lie in the balance (and don't trust the VA with anything a bandaid won't fix).
Isolated incident? Nope. Upon recurrence, two radiation oncologists swore their treatment gave me 75% odds of cure with 5% odds of side effects. Before acting, I did my own homework and proved with >300 peer-reviewed medical journal studies that they were outright full of shit. In fact, my cure odds are <0.18 and immediate, permanent, completely debilitating side effects are virtually guaranteed. F those docs, F their mainstream treatment, F most doctors, and F the VA.
Do your own homework, or else.
I caught a nurse about to inject me with a dose that would have put me in immediate anaphylactic shock.
Another nurse gave me enough central nervous system depressant,
while I was on morphine,
to put my life at risk. I had to forcefully refuse such a large dose even after her smaller one completely paralyzed me.
Two nurses have refused to believe my bladder was blocked. I had to drag my drugged post-surgical ass out of bed, fix the problem myself, flood their damned floor ... TWICE ... to convince them I knew what the hell I was talking about.
Three VA physicians refused to believe that statins often cause muscle pain. In fact, that's been accepted knowledge since the '90s, is extremely common in strength building exercisers, and can kill.
I had to diagnose for myself the cause of my decades-long balance problems after five neurologists posited that I had just 3-5 days to live ... in 1996.
I could go in for pages just from my own experience.
Every one of you: Do your own damned homework. Quit reading fricking novels, watching the Kardashians (whoever they are), partying every chance you get, and yucking it up as though the the damned government -- or doctors, or gym trainers, or lawyers, or used car salesmen, or mechanics, or politicians -- will take care of you from cradle to grave. None of them will if you don't take life seriously enough to
enough to separate the snake oil peddlers from the competent providers and to know when even the good ones slip up.
I'm done for now. Everybody back to their Facebook, ball games, and beer. I'm getting back to medical and insurance literature homework in the hopes of squeezing some decent care out of the medical field and getting some more realistic coverage of my medical bills from at least one of the four insurance providers I pay for.
Soapbox off.

Yikes, sounds like it wasn't your time to die. I have my own cancer stories since I have had two bouts of serious cancer with the last bout just 9 mos ago. Both cancers were not related. So, I just finished 35 radiation treatments two months ago in my neck and throat and lost 35 pounds as I couldn't eat for long periods of time as my throat was scorched and I had to gargle with a numbing agent just to drink water. This was after major surgery removing tonsils and all my neck lymph nodes. But I am happy with the outcome and the work of my docs. So I can relate to your story. Getting back to training, for me using the power plate is a accessory and a part of my plan as I primarially do circuit training by combining various exercise together and the vibrating plate is great for doing planks, deep squats, lunges, pushups ect ect as it really fatigues you in a hurry so there is a lot of work done in a short period of time without having a lot of sets. Probably not best used as a primary source of a program. Anyway, I am on a kinda rehab mode and love thge feeling of my body recovering. Windsurfing pretty good too it is a lot different sailing at 170 as opposed to 210. Maybe a full meter in sail size.

That'll teach you to smoke!
Just kidding, under the presumption that you didn't, given your workout ethic.
I also had two unrelated cancers, one of them saving my life because its workup uncovered the other, far more urgent one. "Life's a bitch, and then you jibe", as the T shirt says. At least we play and exercise addicts cram several ordinary lives' worth of fit fun into our time here; it beats the hell out of waiting for the world to entertain us as we melt into a recliner.
If you're interested in dramatically reducing the time you spend working out while significantly increasing your results, check out this site:
His books (available in any bookstore) and videos are well supported by research, his principles go back to Arthur Jones whose slow lifting training principles produced many world champion body builders including the one who dethroned Arnold, and even proceeding to total whole-body muscle failure produces thorough fatigue but not soreness ... AFTER one recovers from the first few sessions. Even after years of it, I still can't walk upright away from four leg press reps because every fast and slow twitch muscle below my waist is completely depleted. Bonuses: no blood pressure elevation, zero injury rate, serious aerobic and anaerobic conditioning, far less joint strain, no warmup needed, only one set per muscle group, progress very easily and accurately measured, only 5 exercises fries virtually all our muscles in 12 minutes, and its training effect is so thorough that doing it again within a week (up to two weeks with many individuals, especially highly motivated pros) is counterproductive.
When all of you exercisers, athletes, coaches, and trainers stop laughing, check out the book and/or the website and decide for yourselves. I've been as impressed by it as have the many college and professional sports teams who have switched to one slow-lifting protocol or another. Heads up: Superslow newbies will hurt for days, while experienced hands at it will feel OK within hours (but weaker for many days, which is why I don't do it during WSing season). One 12-minute session of this, done right, is tougher than a week of the usual gym crap we see just about everybody else doing in the gym. It's safe and very effective for 80-something heart patients and Ashton Eaton alike because it's all about relative level of effort rather than pounds or reps.

Thanks for that link, I am always interested in approaches to exercise and workouts. For me I have a gym at my house and I like working out daily so my approach is not that intense but I do some failure drills but only once or twice a week. So most of my work is awarm up for sailing and biking. Right now I am only about 70% but I did train as much as I could during all my cancer surgery and radiation. So with my reduced body weight I am still pretty muscular but more like rope. My goal is to weigh around 185 to start ski season. I talked to my doc last week and we agreed that there is no rush to gain weight but just add a few pounds a month. As far as my throat cancer, nonsmoker for sure. I had Squamous cell carcinoma with a Papilloma component. the causes are uncertain but according to my doc there is a epidemic of this kind of cancer in the US and he personally has five cases he is treating. He said maybe veneral disease connection. So, there is probably good reason why getting the Papilloma vaccine is important as a youth. He also said that this cancer is very treatable so my odds are pretty good. My first cancer five years ago was breast cancer and I had surgery and chemo for that. Seems like I am over that as I am beyond five years which is a mile stone. Any lessons? yeah, don't have oral sex with skanky women you pickup at a bar and stay away from anabolic steriods

I gotta wonder how many guys here were surprised to hear that men get breast cancer.
Sorry, Embo and others here for exercise tips, but if you ignore the paragraphs about cancer, there's still a lot of exercise information here.

I've always described it as having been hit by a padded bus. For many people it involves soreness or even pain, while for others it feels more like numbing whole-body physical fatigue. I don't know about the former, but the cure for the latter involves at least three things: fluids, carbs, and getting back on the horse. We could have prevented much of it by gobbling down plenty of fluids plus simple carbs and proteins in a 4:1-5:1 ratio (non-fat chocolate milk is as good as whey and carb supplements) within 15 minutes of the last set or reach, then keeping up the proteins on a specific schedule for a couple of days.
Wow. I got hit by that bus last night and am still tangled in the wheels today. It was a moderate session with the 11 meter formula sail and board. With this dearth of wind here on Cape Cod, I should be thankful I was able to sail at all. Sometimes I wonder if the sense of accomplishment when I nail every gybe and wind up suffering such pain really makes the sport worth the effort. However, there's nothing like London Dry Gin to make it feel better. I drink plenty of Gatorade before sessions and actually all during my day, everyday. This has stopped the cold water cramping for sure. I also will eat powerbars if I have not had much of a lunch for afternoon sessions. Two nights ago I powerloaded on carbs with a pasta meal. Nevertheless, as far as I can determine, and this has been figured over decades of sports activities, if you don't put in the regular sessions at least three times a week, you are going to get hit by the padded bus often. Futhermore, the older you are, the more it will twist you into writhing, withering pain and screaming agony. I find it great that Isobras will go into the why's a wherefore's of the phenomenon in such great detail, but the reality would be that it's like that Carl Sandberg poem regarding the Learned Astronomer.

Although I don't practice as much as I should, I'm a big fan of yoga as a compliment to windsurfing. Windsurfing is mostly about pulling motions where the muscles are contracting. Yoga tends to give preference to pushing motions where the muscles are elongating. It just makes sense to me tha us old fart windsurfers really need a good stretch more than anything else to balance us out. Not to mention the fact that yoga is great for balance and core strength.

I'd think the more important factors would be strength and endurance, regardless of what the scale says. Much also depends on what mix of muscle vs fat you lost. A good sports nutrition book (or trainer) can make sure your diet promotes muscle preservation and development and discourages fat replacement, but it's very tough to walk the tightrope between the former and the latter. The competitive bodybuilders in my gym eat and lift to put on pounds of muscle regardless of the accompanying fat, then drop the carbs to near zip to starve the fat off ... effective, but overall not a healthy process.
I bumped my proteins this past year with very rewarding muscle retention results compared to previous years. Hard work + insufficient protein = muscle atrophy.

The only thing a muscle can do is contract. It's just an electric rope, and can't push. If you Google yoga elongation myth hype, you may be surprised. But as long as you're not getting injured or to loose (both common w/yoga), what the heck? Have you ever considered adding or morphing to Pilates?

vigorfish needed a new other design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 18 designs submitted by 8 freelance designers.
I'm switching my navigation from text link based navigation to a javascript based navigation that will use images. I need bad ass images made for each of the navigation links. Looking for clean, simple yet has POP. Can you dig it?
You can see the current site and navigation at http://www.strutmasters.com
I'm moving to navigation like this website: http://www.usopenshop.org
So I need images for each little box to respresent LINCOLN, CADILLAC etc
I want these to really POP (shadowing, etc) but still look super clean like it is now.
1. Clean
2. Simple
3. All About Usability
4. There should be a line under every 5th nav selection to create subtle separation for the human eye
5. Stay within color scheme and elements of website
6. Give it a little POP
1. Navigation should not distract from the rest of content

Keep in mind that although it isn't on the lottery, it still has very limited access. They allow only 10 per day on the mr-6 are reservable and 4 are walk-in. If you don't reseve one, you may have to attend the mini-lottery at the office that happens at 11am.
As a side note, I was forced to stand in line for the mini-lottery to get on the Big Pine trail last month at the lone pine office. I asked why, as I was outside the WZ, and they said that was the process for all permits at that office. They said it was due to unruly crowds. Unbelievable.

How to
Use the Activities
Inquiry Question
The following activities will help students apply what they have learned about the cooperative work that went into the successful Apollo 11 mission.
Activity 1: Unexpected Benefits from Space Research
Activity 2: A Mission to Mars?
Divide students into groups of four or five, with each group using all they have learned about the Apollo 11 mission to make a list of what would be needed to plan a mission to Mars. Some topics to consider might include: research on Mars and space travel, design and manufacture of rockets, selection and training of astronauts, and life support and rescue.
Remind them that a Mars mission will be much more complicated than a trip to the Moon and back. It takes about three days to get to the Moon, but six months to a year will be needed to get to Mars. Radio signals make the round trip between the Earth and the Moon in 2.6 seconds, but it will take up to 41 minutes to exchange messages between the Earth and Mars. Astronauts on Mars will probably have to bring all of their own shelter, food, water, and breathable air with them.
There have already been many visits to explore the red planet, both from orbiting space crafts and from roving vehicles on the surface. Some students may want to study these missions and report back to the class about what they have revealed about conditions on Mars.
When the groups have completed their lists, have them combine their answers and then discuss the complexity and expense involved in developing a manned mission to Mars. Do they think the achievement would be worth the cost in money and the risk to human life? Would they like to be involved? Why or why not?
Activity 3: What Price History?
is the Rembrandt's easel of the space age. It was the last Earthly foothold for Neil Armstrong, Ed Aldrin and Mike Collins before they thundered off to the Moon. It pointed the way for the Skylab astronauts, for the Apollo-Soyuz voyagers, and for fliers of less renowned missions in the Magellan age of space.
Ask the students to discuss the following questions: What are the arguments for preserving the Apollo launch tower? What are the arguments for dismantling it? What makes a place historic? Ask them whether they think the age of a place has anything to do with people's willingness to see it as historic. Why or why not? Ask them whether they think equipment like this should be preserved or modified for future space flights, saving millions of dollars? If they are preserved, who should pay the cost of preserving them?
Divide students into groups and have each group try to find a "place" (a building, a transportation system, a park or other natural area, etc.) in their community that is associated with an important event that has occurred in their or their parents' lifetimes. Ask each group to share what information they have gathered, and then have the class as a whole decide if any or all of the "places" should be considered "historic" and, if so, should they be preserved and/or interpreted for future generations.
Following the discussion you might want to tell the students that the launch tower was eventually dismantled and stored. Parts of it have been re-erected as part of an interpretive exhibit at the Apollo/Saturn V Center on the grounds of the Kennedy Space Center. Ask the students whether they think this was an appropriate way to deal with the tower.

I keep finding more and more wacky skincare and make up packaging – very cute but not very practical but hey, who cares?!
When I saw this Tony Moly Latte Art Cream in Scrub I had to try it because…well, it looks like this:
Yep, that's a face scrub, not a coffee, not a ornament. It's a face scrub. It even has a spoon.
The Tony Moly Latte Art range has 2 products, Cream in Scrub and Morning Pack. I went for the scrub because…I don't know why actually I just picked from random!
This scrub contains coffee and milk extracts. To use apply it to dry skin and rub – rinse off once the product has changed colour:
More views…
I'm surprised by how much it looks like a full sized cup:
I wonder if I leave this out somewhere if someone will try to drink it. I used to have a coaster that looked like a chocolate bar and my cousin tried to eat it…as you when you are in a strangers house…just pick up random chocolate and eat it.
Screw off the top and in the base is a brown coffee scented scrub. I have tried using this a few times (it's called a 'morning pack') so I used it first thing! And I quite like it. It's a VERY RICH and GLOOPY scrub. And because you use it on dry skin, it takes a while to work in, don't stretch your skin!
It's not madly scrubby, it feels like more of a rich gel than a scrub:
Shame it's not a peeling pack actually.
I wonder if the coffee scent makes you wake up a bit in the morning?! Because coffee reminds me of long nights!
Here is the product. You get an ok amount really – admittedly over half of the packaging is just pure packaging!
Scrub is like treacle, it's ok though. Packaging is so cute well worth it just to confuse people who use your bathroom. I paid about £10 for this on eBay inc. shipping.


text: This mount improves accuracy, too. he Mini-14 was an immediate hit when Ruger announced it in T the mid 1970s. It was strong, reliable, well made, durable and cost a lot less than other .223 semi-autos of the era. The early Minis had their faults. There was no provision for mounting optical sights. Many of them, to put it charitably, were not very accurate. The rifle shown here is an early 180-series, made in 1976 (marked "Made in the 200th year of American Liberty"). Using the iron sights about the best 100-yard groups I get with this rifle are around 6". And that's on a good day, with good ammunition. With some ammunition brands it's doing well to get 8" groups. The problem is not quality control but the combination of a light barrel and an operating rod system. As expanding powder gases pass the gas block and start the operating rod in motion it gives the barrel a tweak, before the bullet has exited. The result is inconsistent barrel vibration and reduced accuracy. One reason AR-15 design rifles are famous for accuracy is the direct gas impingement operating system makes it easy to float the barrel. Current Mini 14s using a stiffer, more rigid barrel and provide considerably better accuracy than early models. Still, owners of older models, if they were dissatisfied with the accuracy, had no choice but to rebarrel or trade in for a new model. Enter the Mini Scout Mount from Amega Mounts. Initially I was interested mainly in being able to fit optical sights, lights and lasers. Doug Green, owner of Amega Mounts, advised they had consistently found better accuracy after fitting the mount on Mini 14s. The mount, he said, stiffens the barrel considerably, making it more rigid and less affected by the action of the operating rod. Before installing the mount I fired several 100-yard groups with the stock rifle, using Black Hills ammunition loaded with 50-grain Hornady V-Max bullets. This ammunition has provided exceptional accuracy in every rifle in which I've tried it. Groups were in the 6" to 8" range I've come to expect from this rifle. Installing the Amega mount was simple and straightforward. The process is clearly described in the instructions provided with the mount, so I won't repeat them here. To sum up, fieldstrip the rifle; remove the wooden handguard; remove the four screws holding the upper and lower gas block components; then install the Amega mount on top of the barrel, securing it to the lower gas block using the original screws. A steel band goes around the bottom of the barrel a few inches back from the gas block and attaches to the Amega mount. When all the screws are tightened the Amega mount acts as a truss support to increase barrel rigidity. The top of the mount is a Picatinny-style rail mount, integral with the mount. A couple of points I like: one is the obvious quality of the Amega mount. It is very well made and finished, and it fit the rifle perfectly with no fuss or bother. Construction material is aluminum alloy, in this case with a black anodized finish. It has the look and feel of a quality component. Another positive, the Amega mount requires no permanent alteration to the rifle. Some collectors will pay a premium for a "200th year" model, and I didn't want to affect its excellent condition. Reinstalling the upper gas block and handguard to restore the rifle to original condition would take just minutes. aMeGa MiNi-14 SCOPe MOUNT Better Accuracy At the range I shot it again with the iron sights (the mount is grooved to not impede the iron sight picture). Groups shrank to about half the initial size, to around 4". I then installed a Leupold Scout Scope using Zeiss- The Mini Scout Mount from Amega replaces the original wooden upper handguard. The scope is a Leupold Scout Scope in Warne rings. A white light/laser aiming device from Insight Systems is attached as well. It's a useful accessory for law enforcement or home-defense, but leave it at home while hunting. 26 WWW.GUNSMAGAZINE.COM • SEPTEMBER 2010

Heute Abend: Lola Blau
Music Theatre by Georg Kreisler Follow Lola's escape from wartime Austria through Europe as she chases her dream to America, in a scenic road movie that blends world history with music, theatre and dance.

This blog is an attempt to keep the issue of copyright in front of the genealogical community. I've been writing and speaking about copyright issues for the genealogical community for the last ten years. From the beginning it has been a popular and controversial topic, but recent sessions have been so well attended that potential participants being turned away. I wish this was because I am a fantastic speaker, but the reality is that the community really wants to understand the issues at hand.
Such was the case at the FGS Conference in Springfield this month. The talk was on Wednesday morning and throughout the rest of the conference I was stopped on a regular basis by attendees, some jokingly opining that they should give up because they couldn't use anything in their genealogies, some stating that they had done everything wrong but would try to do better, others happy that they could stop others from using their material. There were also many that had information and websites to share. The exciting thing was that everyone seemed enthused by the topic, and wanted wanted to discuss one point or another.
Among those sitting in the room was Dick Eastman, who made copyright a topic for his newsletter last week. See Copyright Myths . The thread of questions and comments resulting from this newsletter are very telling and show some of the misunderstandings that exist.
It is my intention to use this new blog to explore the idiosyncrasies of copyright, post updates to copyright issues and create links to great copyright websites. First, however, I plan to take a much needed vacation to recover from managing the finances for Springfield. Check back in a few weeks for the next installment. ©

Fedora 10: The Best Fedora Yet?
What Free/Open Source Can Accomplish
Any release of a GNU/Linux distribution marks a milestone in a continuous cycle of software development. However, Fedora 10 promises to be a larger milestone than most, both for its development community and users, according to Paul W. Frields, the Fedora leader and chair.
The release has been delayed three to four weeks thanks to a major security breach in the Fedora and Red Hat repositories that was discovered in mid-August and not fixed until September 10th. This is not a major slip, Frields points out, considering that earlier releases have been delayed one or two weeks for mere bug-fixing, but the effort to avoid even further slippage was intense. Following best practices for security and taking no chances, the Fedora infrastructure team spent a hectic few weeks rebuilding the distro's repository system from the ground up, also taking the opportunity to add a few improvements at the same time.
Looking back, Frields suggests that the effort would not be possible except with free software.
"You can see that there's a really compelling story for the IT world here about what free and open source software can accomplish," he says. Still, the situation has affected the release schedule by requiring some high-level decisions. Discussions are still ongoing, but it now appears that Fedora 11, which is likely to be the basis for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0, will also be a month late, but that the less important Fedora 12 may have only a five-month development period to bring the release schedule back into sync.
In addition, as the result of the security crisis, Fedora now plans to issue new encrypted authentication keys for all its repositories with each release as a general precaution. "Even though we're confident that we dodged that bullet," Frields says, speaking of the security crisis, "We want to make sure that we dodged it by a continent rather than by the next town over."
Living with growth
A less stressful but still demanding background issue is the rapid growth of the community. According to Frields, membership in the Fedora community has gone from under 2000 to over 15,000 in the last year. Frields attributes this growth to a number of factors, including the effort under his leadership to make the steps in becoming part of the community easier; the doubling in size of the ambassador program, Fedora's grass roots evangelism effort; Fedora's emphasis on good relations with the upstream community (that is, the individual projects that go into a distribution), and the realization by business that Fedora is the place to see the content of upcoming releases of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
However, even more importantly, Frields suggests that Fedora has developed a strong and distinctive brand. "We've had countless discussions about questions like, 'What is the audience for Fedora? What is the marketing plan for Fedora? What is our mission? What is our objective? And these discussions are all held in public," Frields says. "These aren't things that are declared by Red Hat behind the scenes -- these are things that are done in the community. And, when we arrive at the answers, we put them out in public for everyone to look at. That way, we can put everybody on the same page for spreading the message about how Fedora works."
Frields summarizes the Fedora brand as having four pillars: Freedom, Friends, Features, and First. In other words, the distribution makes a point of shipping only free software (aside from some firmware blobs for device drivers), building links both within and outside the community, including innovative features, and being the first both with features and community organization.
"I think Fedora really is the heart of free software. We're able to provide what other open source communities need, and I think it's what makes us such a vibrant part of the free software ecosystem," Frields says.
However, while such a reputation is gratifying, it also represents a tremendous organizational and diplomatic challenge, as well as constant reappraisal, especially because the project is growing so quickly.
Release features
Even without such challenges, Fedora 10 promises to be an ambitious release. On a philosophical level, Fedora 10 is the first Fedora release to tackle the problem of kernel drivers dependent on proprietary firmware blobs. Although Frields states, "Fedora's position is that firmware is something that you can't consider in the same way as code that is running on a CPU," he concedes that there are users who would prefer not to install it. For those who wish to avoid proprietary firmware, Fedora 10 has now moved them to a single package called kernel-firmware, making a philosophically free system easy to obtain.

Our Sustainable, USDA-Certified Organic Beeswax is sourced from established Bee Farmers who meet our stringent social, environmental and economic requirements.
We purchase our USDA Organic Beeswax from well-established bee farmers, who are often the third or fourth-generation in the trade and have learned from decades of hands-on experience. Their livelihood is dependent on the ethical and humane collection of crude wax and honey. These farmers take pride in providing a high quality, consistent products year after year, without endangering bees or other wildlife.
The collection of our Organic Beeswax takes place in organized apiaries, or out in the wild – where collectors do their best to ensure the bees are well cared for. By constantly monitoring the hives, farmers can make certain the bees are healthy and well fed throughout the year, especially during times of drought or frost. Many of our bee farmers use wooden hives, which are hung from trees, so wild animals cannot disturb them.
In addition, the majority of our bee farmers contribute to ongoing government and university-funded research. This crucial research is intended to develop better ways to handle bees, and keep them safe in their natural habitat.
Organic Beeswax is a naturally sustainable product from Mother Nature. It is up to us to protect bees, so that they will continue to pollinate and produce high quality Organic Beeswax for generations to come.

The strangest thing happened in the hot summer afternoon near
A strange story, yet to anyone who loves Forteana it is an oddly familiar one as well.
In the suburban
After the picnic two gentlemen were taking a leisurely stroll in the acreage behind the farmhouse to enjoy the cool early evening breeze. As they descended the tiny slope in the landscape that ended in at the edge of a small creek they saw something flailing in the water a few meters up stream.
It was a body.
They rushed to the bodies side and pulled it from the creek. The body was that of a young man dressed in a military uniform. As the crown gathered to view the body, no one in the small close knit community recognized him. Then they realized the oddest part of this mystery, for the dead lad wore the military uniform of a soldier in the War of 1812…some 48 years out of time!
The uniform was new, its colors were bright and the uniform fit perfectly. The boy was never identified and the body was buried in a local cemetery. The small creek behind the
This fascinating story has been spread by word of mouth for over 100 years in the small community of Girard
So I took to the library to see if there was any evidence in newspapers of the time that told of this displaced soldier from a War long passed.
In the summer of 1861 the American Civil War had just begun. The local newspaper, the Erie Times was full of reports of the mustering troops from the local area heading into the front lines and preparing for conflict. Every soldier entering active duty was duly noted for their service in those old local papers. And when it came to other pursuits of every day life outside of the War the attention to detail was not lacking either. While perusing the papers from 1859 to 1863 I noticed that even the most mundane news was not left unnoticed. It was front page news in the local section when someone would merely fall off their horse. In our media and entertainment soaked society today it is hard to conceive such trivialities would garner such interest, but at that time this was the only source of news and entertainment to be had outside of the theater.
Nowhere in all the editions from those years did I find any reference to a body of a mysterious soldier found anywhere in the
I contacted the Girard cemetery to ask if there were any such burials of an unknown soldier in that time frame, and there were not. Of course there were many other smaller cemeteries around at that time so it could be conceivable that the boy for 1812 was buried at some other location, but it would be almost unimaginable that an unknown soldier-no matter what the mystery surrounded his demise- would not be buried with honor in the main cemetery in the center of town only a short distance from the place that the incident took place.
So did it happen?
It reminds me of a few other rather famous…or should I say infamous incidents of displaced people roughly within the same time period.
Broadcaster and writer of the paranormal, Frank Edwards in his book "The Strangest of All"
tells of the story of young Oliver Larch,
"Christmas eve of 1889 found the countryside around
The family minister and his wife were there, along with a circuit judge from
Outside the snow had stopped falling. It was about five or six inches deep, a soft and fluffy blanket that lay as as it fell, for there was no breeze on this black, starless night.
A few minutes before , Oliver's father noticed that the grey granite bucket which held the drinking water needed filling. He asked Oliver to run out to the well and bring in a bucket of fresh water. Oliver slipped on a pair of overshoes and went out the side door as his father went back into the parlor to be with the guests.
About ten seconds after Oliver closed the door behind him the adults in the front room heard him scream for help. They ran out the same door Oliver had used. Mr. Larch brought a kerosene lamp which sent its flickering yellow rays out over the snow for a few feet. Scream after scream chilled the little gathering.
'Help! Help! They've got me! Help! Help! Help!'
The witnesses afterward agreed that the cries for help were coming from overhead. Somewhere up there in the stygian blackness Oliver Larch was in mortal fear, his screams growing fainter and fainter until they finally became inaudible.
By the light of the lam the men made out Oliver's footprints in the snow. He had gone about half way to the well, which was about seventy-five feet from the house across the open yard, when his tracks ended abruptly. The grey granite bucket lay on its side in the snow about fifteen feet away on the left side of Oliver's track. There were no other marks of any kind in the soft snow.
Just Oliver's footprints…and the bucket…and silence."
Did this event really happen?
In his blog "A Different Perspective" author Kevin D. Randle writes that in investigating this case he came to many of the same roadblocks to verification of this displaced boy that I had faced in my efforts for the Girard story.
There are no newspaper accounts of the incident. In fact local reporters Francis K. Czyzewski and Sarah Lockerbie both wrote investigative reports for various newspapers in the 1960s about the incident and came to the conclusion that it had never happened. However there is evidence that Randle uncovers that points that the story goes back to at least 1906 if not earlier.
Another story popular in the 50s in a similar vein is that of the disappearance of David Lang. Again Frank Edwards in another book, "Stranger than Science" recounts the bizarre tale of the man's disappearance. Mr. Lang was walking across a field on his farm to meet Judge August Peck who was coming down the road in a horse and buggy. Frank Edwards writes that:
"David Lang had not taken more than half a dozen steps when he disappeared in full view of all those present. Mrs. Lang screamed. The children, too startled to realize what had happened, stood mutely. Instinctively, they all ran toward the spot where Lang had last been seen a few seconds before. Judge Peck and his companion, the Judge's brother-in-law, scrambled out of their buggy and raced across the field. The five of them arrived on the spot of Lang's disappearance almost simultaneously. There was not a tree, not a bush, not a hole to mar the surface. And not a single clue to indicate what had happened to David Lang.
The grownups searched the field around and around, and found nothing. Mrs. Lang became hysterical and had to be led screaming into the house. Meanwhile, neighbors had been altered by the frantic ringing of a huge bell that stood in the side yard, and they spread the alarm. By nightfall scores of people were on the scene, many of them with lanterns. They searched every foot of the field in which Lang had last been seen a few hours before. They stamped their feet on the dry hard sod in hope of detecting some hole into which he might have fallen—but they found none.
David Lang was gone. He had vanished in full view of his wife, his two children, and the two men in the buggy. One second he was there, walking across the sunlit field, the next instant he was gone."
It is reported that the grass where Lang disappeared had turned yellow as if some weird form of energy had whisked him off to another dimension. A dimension that was close at hand for it was also reported that Mr. Lang's daughters still had conversations with the man at the site for day before his voice finally faded into nothingness.
Of course many familiar with Fortean stories from the last century know that this story at least is a confirmed hoax. The story of David Lang first appears in July 1953 issue of Fate magazine, authored by mystery writer Stuart Palmer. The similarities to author Ambrose Bierce's work "The Difficulty of Crossing a Field," in the 1893 collection of stories "Can Such Things Be?" make this story an obvious fake, and a plagiarized one at that. Some would also contend that the Larch disappearance was also influenced by Ambrose Bierce.
However here is where the real oddness of these fanciful stories meets unexplained reality.
In December of 1913 Ambrose Bierce, a War veteran, joined Mexican revlutionary Pancho Villa's army as a literary observer. On
Life imitating art? Or a foreseen destiny manifest?

"One-hundred and thirty-five years ago, Nebraska was the middle of nowhere, but pioneers with courage and vision of what could be took a risk and planted their roots deep in the rich soil of our state. Today, we celebrate the fruits of their labor and that of the generations of Nebraskans who have followed and prospered and turned Nebraska from the middle of nowhere into the middle of everywhere, the heartland of America.
"The challenges facing the pioneers who built this state should give us pause to reflect on the problems we face today. Would any of us consider trading our problems for theirs? Building our state out of this raw land was a remarkable accomplishment.
"Great progress has been made in Nebraska over the past 135 years. Let us be grateful to those who helped build this great state, and let us re-dedicate ourselves to do all we can for our state, our community and our country as we build a bright future for the generations that follow. May God bless America and this great State of Nebraska."

Alfresco Makes Leading Java Implementation JLAN Shared File Drive Interface Available via GPL
Alfresco momentum continues with over 50 OEMs, ISVs and VARs
LONDON, October 16, 2007 – Alfresco Software, Inc. today announced that it is now offering its Alfresco JLAN, formerly known as the Alfresco Intelligent File System, under the GNU Public License (GPL), the world's most popular open source software license.
GPL is the most widely used free software license worldwide; almost three quarters of all free software and open source programs are distributed under this license. Alfresco adopted the GPL licensing for the rest of its open source enterprise content management software earlier this year.
Alfresco JLAN is a unique implementation of an embedded virtual file system that offers the only Java client and server implementation of Microsoft Window's CIFS (Common Internet File System) protocol, allowing content, system administration information, and rows in a database to appear as a shared drive. The shared drive is the de-facto document management interface for the vast majority of computer users today.
Alfresco JLAN offers the following features and functionality:
- Only Pure Java client and server implementation - CIFS, NFS and FTP
- High Performance – Similar to the native file system
- Enterprise Authentication – NTLM, NTLMSSP, SPNEGO, Kerberos/AD
- Real-Time Access – No copy to local disk and conflict resolution issues
- Offline Access - Integration to Microsoft® briefcase
Last spring, Alfresco offered JLAN, which was previously incorporated within the Alfresco Enterprise Content Management Server, as a standalone embeddable option for OEMs. The availability of Alfresco JLAN as an OEM license enables partners to rapidly and at much lower cost add JLAN features and functionality to their products. Alfresco JLAN customers include Avaki EII (owned by Sybase), Caringo, EMC Documentum, and Veritas (owned by Symantec). Example uses include shared drive interfaces to content management systems, databases or content enabling applications such as customer relationship management.
"I am very excited about this Open Source contribution", said Chris Hertel, Samba Team member and co-founder the jCIFS project. "Every Open Source CIFS implementation adds to the community's understanding, and to the utility of the protocol itself."
"Alfresco JLAN has allowed us to expand our OEM momentum with a simple interface and low cost open source solution, which can easily be embedded into various systems," said John Newton, CTO, Alfresco Software. "Today, more than 50 customers, including some of the largest software companies in the world, have already incorporated Alfresco JLAN into their products."
Alfresco is the leading open source alternative for Enterprise Content Management and the first embeddable Enterprise Content Management system. It is being used by leading original equipment manufacturers, independent software vendors (ISVs) and value added resellers (VARs).
Alfresco has been downloaded over 700,000 times, has 25,000 live sites and 300 customers, predominantly from the Global 2000. An embedded version of Alfresco has been available since October 2005.
Alfresco JLAN is available for download from: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=143373&package_id=248550

Bloodknight proposed that resources were written into the Wiki instead of being an actual forum here. I think that makes a lot of sense, and could make more people aware of the Wiki.
I can change the "Resources" forum on the frontpage to just re-direct to a Wiki site, what do you other guys think of this idea?
