The solar industry employs veterans at a higher-than-average rate, according to a report by a veterans coalition and a solar industry group released Wednesday.
Veterans make up 9% of all solar workers at a time when 16% of veterans 18 years old to 24 years old are unemployed, Operation Free and The Solar Foundation said in the report released Wednesday.
That compares to an overall unemployment rate of 6% and an unemployment rate of 11% for non-veterans in the same age group. Veterans are 7.6% of the overall workforce.
Some of the returning veterans have had experience with solar systems in active duty, since the U.S. military has spent billions in solar and other energy conservation measures — not so much to save the Earth, according to this Bloomberg News article, but because renewable energy saves money, leads to fewer supply disruptions, and it can even help save lives in conflict areas.
More veterans will seek work in solar, and the industry is expanding: The Solar Foundation expects solar employment to grow 16%, adding about 22,000 new solar workers to the 143,000 that were employed by the industry last year, according to a report released in late January.
Most veterans in the solar industry (39%) work in installation, and 27% work in manufacturing. The median hourly wage in installation firms is $19 for installers, and $15 for assembly workers.
Such jobs often cannot be outsourced. Solar employment has risen 50% since 2010.

Wide open spaces, peace, tranquility and the sounds of nature blend together making Orkney one of the perfect places to strap on the walking boots and go for a walk.
Thousands of acres await any visitor to the mainland or the Isles who want to reset their brains and forget about the hustle and bustle of city life.
During every walk you should stop and take in the surroundings. Take a moment to listen and look around and you may hear the sounds of the Atlantic beating against cliffs or see a seal enjoying the afternoon sun.
Many walks are signposted and have well maintained paths and gates. Please keep to these paths and take care to keep away from animals. Keep dogs well under control at all times.
For the more adventurous or those people who want a local guide to help, a number of companies are now available to provide assistance. A local guide is especially useful during the winter or in bad weather to ensure your safety.
We have put together details of a number of walks, guides and maps.

Procurement software solutions vary in terms of functionality, pricing and core technology. The ideal solution enables organizations to control budgets, cut costs and enhance transparency in the approvals and spending process.
The primary objective of procurement solutions is to manage and ease all interactions between the stakeholders, such as originator, buyer, category manager, approver, vendor and receiver, at every transactional step. The solution also executes critical tasks such as request initiation, purchase order placement, bid analysis, invoice approval and final payment.
This guide will assist potential buyers in determining which procurement software best fits their needs.
Here's what we'll cover:
What Is Procurement Software?
Common Features of Procurement Software
Evaluating Procurement Systems
Market Trends to Understand
Procurement software (labeled as RFQ software or purchasing management software by some vendors) manages the purchasing processes within a supply chain. After using sourcing software to analyze current spending and potential vendor performance, these applications take over to finalize deals and initiate monetary transactions. As an important element of supply chain management systems, these systems help organizations efficiently manage their purchasing cycle times and maximize profit on every purchase order (PO).
Procurement management software solutions can convert a well-researched sourcing process into successful purchase orders through user-friendly processes. This helps control non-payroll expenditures and thus support positive asset management over the long run. After reverse auctions, which can take place through public bids or multi-round private offers, the requisitioning phase begins. At this point, the supplies are bought via the system's electronic purchasing capabilities. Once the order has been completed, the application analyzes receipts for invoice approval and reconciliation.

One of the obvious benefits of these applications and supplier relationship management systems in general is its ability to effectively manage the mass amounts of data that accumulate after an organization's many purchases. Once purchasing terms have been agreed, e-procurement software submits the information to all necessary parties for immediate approval, ensuring that the procured products can be delivered as soon as possible. For future reference, the program also stores these approval documents as well as the expense figures for each purchase, which will be used in the next sourcing cycle when the organization once again looks to cut costs.
Specific features of an electronic procurement system include:
|Selection & ordering
|Purchasing solutions organize product information in a format that makes it easy to compare products to make the best selection. Although this makes all purchasing decisions easier, where it really adds value is in the selection of commodities, where there are no variations in product features or quality.
|Purchase order approval & delivery
|Organizing the data in one place makes it easy to identify product and purchase order approvals, ensuring that nothing is ordered without the right people knowing about it. They then deliver the POs to the vendors through their preferred delivery method.
|As part of the billing functionality in these systems, it should match invoices to orders, and handle electronic bill paying as desired.
|Spend data analysis
|The business intelligence side of these applications analyzes purchasing trends and evaluates vendors to identify potential areas to improve on economies of scale and otherwise improve negotiating position.
When evaluating purchasing software, it's a good idea not to get caught up in the individual features of each product. Rather, look for something that matches your current and past use, that will simply expedite decisions you've already made.
One of the main decisions you'll make in purchasing this program is to go with a traditional installation-based system or a software-as-a-service "e-Procurement" system. Procurement applications must handle compliance issues, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 which placed harsher regulations on accounting practices. That means you also need to ensure your application is SOX compliant—maintaining full and reliable disclosure in financial reporting.
Ask the following questions when evaluating solutions for purchasing:
As you evaluate a new procurement software solution, it's important to keep the following industry trends in mind. How your selected vendor fits within these trends could have a significant impact on their viability.
The rise of the cloud. Procurement teams across the world are investing in technology in one way or the other; however, they are yet to maximize the use of the cloud across their organizations. The procurement process can leverage cloud technology in various ways, such as supplier collaboration. The cloud has a lot to offer procurement departments, such as streamlining orders, enhanced visibility across supply chains and smoother execution of various changes, even during the transportation of goods.
For example, Del Monte integrated its supply chain data with the cloud, which enables it to collaborate with its business partners, place supplier contracts, create orders and access global data in real time.
Enhancements in e-procurement. Organizations will have to be more careful while selecting their e-procurement systems and expense management parameters. The ideal e-procurement technology will help them speed up their buying activities, decrease policy breaches and remove existing roadblocks in procurement.
The new generation has unique requirements. These days people have high expectations about how procurement should be done and the technology that must be employed. Hence, organizations must be aware and up to date regarding the latest technology in order to retain the current generation and manage the millennials involved in the overall supply chain.
Growing emphasis on data security. Due to the increasing number of data breaches, organizations must store their data securely at various steps of their supply chain. They should also make people within the supply relationships accountable for any data breaches. Growth in analytics. The complex tasks of data representation, insights and analysis are challenging but critical these days. This trend is growing significantly among procurement teams. Analyzing the spending allows procurement departments to have complete visibility of all indirect and direct spending. It also helps them reduce costs wherever possible and identify all the consolidation opportunities.

European Commission
Press release
Brussels, 3 July 2013
EU and Japan join forces to tackle data explosion and build 100Gbps internet – 5000 times faster than today's average EU speed
The European Commission and Japan today announce six research projects aiming at redefining internet architectures to increase the efficiency of networks in carrying data. One project aims to build networks 5000 times faster than today's average European broadband speed (100Gbps compared to 19.7Mbps).
There is a pressing need for new and more efficient networks in light of a massive online data explosion that is expected to continue over the next decade.
The world generates 1.7 million billion bytes of data per minute; data traffic volumes doubled between early 2012 and early 2013 and are expected to grow 12-fold by 2018. Such big data is growing faster than networks' capacity to carry it.
The projects, will receive around €18m in funding, and touch on challenges such as cyber security, network capacity, storage, high density data traffic and energy efficiency.
European Commission Vice-President Neelie Kroes, said: "Our Future Internet should know no barriers, least of all barriers created because we did not prepare for the data revolution."
The funded projects are:
The future of telecommunications and computing will see a world of fully interconnected users and devices, requiring more efficient technology able to overcome booming traffic or security issues. The amount of information produced on a daily basis is key to new services and applications – from improved internet search engines to limited road congestion. Placing big data on servers in the "cloud" will enable wireless devices interconnectivity (smartphones, tablets, machines and sensors) making up the Internet of Things.
The projects' presentation took place at an inaugural event organised earlier today in Tokyo. This initiative brings together the European Commission, the Japanese Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communication (MIC), the National Institute of ICT (NICT) along with European and Japanese industrial players, leading universities and R&D centres, such as Orange, Telefonica, NEC, Panasonic, NTT, KDDI, ADVA, STMicroelectronics and Intel.

Eh, I think the lv 1 Rogue strategy is more of a gimmick thing even in normal circumstances. In a vicious or vicious+vicious dungeon it's incredibly sub-optimal, especially since you could just prep Yendor for instant level 5. Moreover, a lv 10 Goblin Assassin is going to have better stats all around and will also have an entire dungeon's worth of popcorn to get piety from Tikki Tooki, so he can pull off most of the same tricks as the Rogue only with far more resources. (Granted, a Goblin Assassin doesn't do much "normal" leveling either.)
For comparison, the alpha's Boss Hive has level 2 Meat Man with 4 attack and 90 HP. And the alpha had far more broken strategies available than the current game.

Rep. Rayne Brown, R-Davidson, remembers the excitement in Nancy Harvey's life that was yet to come.
Rep. Rayne Brown, R-Davidson, remembers the excitement in Nancy Harvey's life that was yet to come.
The state legislator recalls Harvey being ready to take a cruise with friends, welcome a new grandchild into this world and just take time for herself. But the woman's life ended too early, and a year after she was found dead inside of her business, the reason why she was violently killed remains a mystery in the community.
"I am very distressed that her killer hasn't been found," Brown said. "She was a volunteer of mine. I'll always love her and regret her loss."
Harvey was found dead about 9 a.m. Jan. 25, 2013, by employees at Atlanta Car Co. at 1834 Old U.S. Highway 52. Few details were released by the Davidson County Sheriff's Office concerning her death until May when an autopsy report was released by the N.C. Office of the Chief Medical Examiner.
Remembering a friend
Brown first recalls meeting Harvey in 2008 when efforts were ongoing by Lexington to annex areas surrounding the city. Together Harvey and Brown attempted to thwart the city's effort to annex. Brown would later receive assistance from Harvey in 2010 as a campaign volunteer in her successful run for the N.C. House.
"She was just an influential person in the community, a great businesswoman," the state representative said. "Her death is just a loss and just so horrific. We just don't ever think about that kind of thing happening to people in Lexington."
The last time Brown saw Harvey was in November 2012 when she borrowed a convertible to ride in for the city's Veterans Day Parade. Brown recalls Harvey loving life and having a funny personality.
"She was a workaholic … and a fabulous businesswoman," she said.
Brown, like many others, wonders why Harvey was killed. She explained the woman's death remains a mystery, though everyone has conjectures.
"I have no idea," Louise Coleman, who described Harvey as one of her best friends, said of why someone would have killed the woman.
Coleman recalled never hearing Harvey saying anything bad about anyone. She explained Harvey didn't have a "bad bone in her" and was the "sweetest friend." Coleman last saw Harvey the morning of Jan. 24, 2013, when Harvey was preparing to make chicken stew.
Coleman said she and another friend had taken Harvey on her first cruise months before her death. She said Harvey had a ball, even parasailing on the cruise. Coleman said the three friends were planning another cruise to the Bahamas for February and registered her for the trip the evening of Jan. 24, 2013. The friends still went on the trip after Harvey's death because they had already paid for the cruise. Coleman said the cruise was hard because she could imagine Harvey doing all of the activities.
Coleman said Harvey did not date anyone "as a man was the furthest thing on her mind" since Harvey's husband died a few years ago.
Autopsy shows violent death
The autopsy report indicates Harvey's legs were tied by zip ties, and there was a bag over her head with a zip tie around the neck. It also states that "apparently bleach had been poured over the body and around the office," and her ankles were tied. The report identified multiple blunt trauma essentially from the face to the upper thighs. Dr. Clay Nichols stated in the report that Harvey died of asphyxiation.
"We have a possible motive," Davidson County Sheriff David Grice said. The sheriff explained he wasn't going to elaborate further or identify any possible suspects.
Discussing the case, Grice said the State Bureau of Investigation works hand-in-hand with the DCSO anytime deputies conduct an interview. DCSO Detective Lt. Kevin Johnson is the lead investigator on the case. The lieutenant said the investigation remains active.
"We follow up on things each day," he said. "… We take all cases seriously, but this is a homicide, so we take this very seriously."
A year after her death, family members of Harvey remain silent. A request for an interview with Amy and Jay Grubert, who run Atlanta Car Co., was not granted. Jay Grubert is Harvey's son.
Neighbors remains in shock
David Putnam was a neighbor of Harvey on Hickory Tree Road in Midway. Still today he remains in shock over her death and wants to know what happened. Putnam explained there hasn't been much activity at Harvey's residence, and the house has set empty over the past year.
"I'd just like to see it solved and find out what happened to her — really," Putnam said. "If someone across the road is murdered and you don't hear anything, you just wonder what's going on."
Jasper Nifong, one of Harvey's other neighbors, told The Dispatch days after Harvey's death that he watched her residence all the time since Harvey's husband, Larry Ronald Harvey, died in April 2010 of a massive heart attack.
Nifong previously recalled mowing Harvey's yard and talking to her when he saw her outside. He would also see her leave around 7 a.m. each work day and arrive home late at night. The night of Jan. 24, 2013, was a time that Nifong did not see Harvey come home.
"It just knocked my feet from under me," he said this past year of learning of Nancy Harvey's death.
Nifong said Friday that Harvey's death still bothers him.
"I just can't understand it to save my life," he said. "That woman didn't bother anybody. It's just a shame that it happened the way it did."
Tips are needed
Davidson County sheriff's deputies continue to request help from the public regarding the case. Deputies previously manned a roadblock between the hours of 6 and 8 p.m. Jan. 31, 2013. They stood on Winston Road in the area of where the homicide occurred handing out flyers.
Harvey's family also has offered a reward of $8,000 to anyone providing information on the case to law enforcement authorities leading to an arrest and successful prosecution. The $8,000 reward remains in addition to the maximum $2,000 Lexington Area Crimestoppers reward. Deputies have asked for anyone who saw suspicious activity at Atlanta Car Co. between 6 p.m. Jan. 24, 2013, and 9 a.m. Jan. 25, 2013, to contact them at 242-2105. Crimestoppers can be reached at 243-2400. Tips to Crimestoppers are anonymous.
"We would like anybody with any information … to come up and give us any information that would be helpful," Johnson said. "We would be most happy to get it.
Grice said a Governor's Reward can't be offered in the case because the DCSO hasn't exhausted all leads. Brown said if all leads end up being exhausted, she would do everything she could do to see the reward issued.

Dr. Kaartinen's laboratory is interested in underlying molecular reasons that lead to a formation of common craniofacial and cardiac birth defects in human newborn babies. Their particular interest is in TGF-beta/BMP superfamily signaling. They have a long history of using gene targeting in mouse ES cells and subsequent generation of knockout, knockin and conditional/tissue-specific knockout mice, which form a primary research model in their research laboratory.
Dr. Kaartinen's laboratory is currently investigating a role TGF-beta superfamily signaling in lip fusion, and differentiation and anterior-posterior patterning of the palatal epithelium, regulation of TGF-beta3 expression in the palatal epithelium and the role of TGF-beta3 signaling in the palatal mesenchyme. Moreover, they currently study the role of a novel negative regulator of TGF-beta signaling (Trim33) in craniofacial development, and they have a project to identify micro-RNAs that regulate gene expression in the prefusion palatal epithelium.
Studies on cardiac development include investigations on a role of TGF-beta signaling via the Alk5 receptor in the epicardium, the role of Alk2 mediated signaling in outflowt tract and aortic valve development, and BMP type I receptor signaling interactions in atrio-ventricular canal transformation.

Delabar keeping grip on early Final Vote lead
TORONTO -- The Blue Jays' social media campaign to get Steve Delabar elected to the upcoming All-Star Game is well underway, and it appears to be paying off so far as the reliever is holding his lead in the American League, according to Tuesday's update in the Final Vote.
Delabar is one of five AL candidates for the Final Vote, which is a fan ballot to determine the last roster spot at the upcoming All-Star Game in New York.
TORONTO -- The Blue Jays' social media campaign to get Steve Delabar elected to the upcoming All-Star Game is well underway, and it appears to be paying off so far as the reliever is holding his lead in the American League, according to Tuesday's update in the Final Vote.
Delabar is one of five AL candidates for the Final Vote, which is a fan ballot to determine the last roster spot at the upcoming All-Star Game in New York.
Toronto launched its initiative on Twitter Saturday night with the hashtag RaiseTheBar while also taking full advantage of its popular Facebook page and an in-stadium advertising campaign. The purpose was to get the word out early and often about Delabar's need for votes.
"Collectively we came up with a catchy slogan to hopefully get Blue Jays fans united and get them voting," said Rob Jack, who is the club's manager of social marketing.
"We were ready in case it happened and I think it's really important to get the vote out early. We wanted to be aggressive, be out there fast and come up with something that gets everyone rallied together."
The Blue Jays are somewhat familiar with the process after having gone through it in 2007 with Roy Halladay and again in 2009 with Adam Lind. But a lot has changed since then with potential marketing tools such as Twitter having gone mainstream.
Toronto's official account now has approximately 300,000 followers and its online fan base is known for being one of the most active in Major League Baseball. The hope is that the large group will help spread the word and give Delabar a legitimate chance against his fellow competitors: New York's David Robertson, Boston's Koji Uehara, Detroit's Joaquin Benoit and Texas' Tanner Scheppers.
Just in case the Blue Jays' following isn't enough to get the job done, Toronto decided to join forces with the Braves. The two organizations are running a joint campaign with Atlanta lending its support to Delabar while Toronto has endorsed Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman in his quest for a spot on the National League team.
The decision came in part because of some pre-existing relationships between the two clubs and the fact that Freeman's parents are both Canadian citizens.
"I think Freddie made a lot of sense because of his parents," Jack said. "We're going to play off that a little bit in the future ... This thing always works out best if you have a dancing partner and they were all over it too based on the Canadian side and the fact that Delabar is from Kentucky, so that's kind of Braves country down there.
"We talked about it quickly, it kind of made sense for both sides, they were on board, we were on board and kind of worked out well."
On Tuesday, the partnership went into full swing. When fans vote for both Delabar and Freeman on the ballot through midnight ET, they will be entered for a chance to win one of six baseballs signed by both players.
Now in its 12th year, the 2013 All-Star Game Final Vote sponsored by freecreditscore.com gives baseball fans around the world the opportunity to select the final player on each All-Star team. Balloting began immediately following Saturday's Major League All-Star Selection Show presented by Taco Bell and ends Thursday at 4 p.m. ET. The winners will be announced on MLB.com shortly thereafter.
There will be an extra treat for fans who participate in the Final Vote online. If you are not a current MLB.TV subscriber (MLB.TV or MLB.TV Premium), you are eligible to receive a 14-day free trial of MLB.TV from July 12-26. If you are a current MLB.TV subscriber (MLB.TV or MLB.TV Premium), you will receive a 15-percent discount to the MLB.com Shop. MLB.com will send an email on July 12 to all Final Vote voters with instructions on how to redeem the applicable offer.
Mobile voting in the U.S. and Canada is open to everyone. In the U.S., to receive the 2013 All-Star Game Final Vote sponsored by freecreditscore.com mobile ballot, text the word "VOTE" to 89269. To vote for Delabar, simply text message A2 to 89269. In Canada, fans should text A2 to 101010. Standard message and data rates may apply. To vote for another player via text message, use the codes below.
This entire process is an entirely new concept to Delabar, who joked that he never even took part in an "election" during his days as school. All of his teammates are now wearing "Vote Delabar" T-Shirts prior to each game and everyone is doing their best to bring out of the support in whatever way possible.
"I might have been class clown or something like that but I never really had shirts made up or did anything like that," said Delabar, who is 5-1 with a 1.58 ERA in 40 innings this season.
"The year that I've had is going pretty well so to be considered is an honor. There's a lot of guys out there that could be in consideration for the Final Vote so it's an honor just to be mentioned."
The players can promote Delabar all they want but if the hard-throwing reliever is going to have a chance at a spot on the All-Star Team it ultimately will be up to the Blue Jays' fan base.
Some might view them as being underdogs in this type of competition but that might not be entirely true. Toronto right fielder Jose Bautista has been voted into the All-Star Game for three consecutive years and just two seasons ago received more votes than anyone in Major League history.
The participation doesn't come as a shock to the club because it's something they deal with online every day.
"Even when we first started Twitter, I think fans have been on it right away," Jack said. "I think Toronto is a pretty tech savvy city so I think our fan base has been very social media inclined. Whenever we've done stuff, we've developed a big following and they seem very engaged.
"They like the idea of being involved in a new-age fan club and how fans connect with each other. We've always had a strong base and it should be no surprise that they've been all over it from pretty much day one ... They're really engaged and I think they're obviously big Blue Jays fans and want to help out."

A House Made of Dirt
People use many different kinds of materials to build homes. Some people use wood to build their homes. Other people use bricks made of clay. Some people even use ice! A long time ago in the United States, people used sod to build their homes. Sod is topsoil that has a lot of roots running through it. The roots help to hold the sod together.
When people moved out west to the great prairies, they had to build homes. There were very few trees. So people cut pieces or bricks of sod from the ground. Many of the sod bricks were about 24 inches long and 18 inches wide. They were heavy. They were usually so full of roots that removing them from the ground was hard work. A family had to cut a lot of sod bricks from the ground to build a house.
People stacked the sod bricks with the root side facing up. This way the roots could grow into the next sod brick and help hold the wall together. In fact, sod houses were very sturdy. They were also fireproof unlike wood houses. But sod houses were not very clean. The floors were made of dirt. Some people put wooden boards over the dirt floor. Dirt fell down from the ceiling and into the house. Sometimes pests dug through the walls. Imagine waking up to find a mouse or a snake in your bed!
After a family became settled on the land, the family might order lumber to build a wooden house. When the wooden house was finished, the family moved out of the sod house and into the wooden house. Then they used the sod house to store equipment or to house farm animals.
- prairie:
- A wide area of flat or rolling land with tall grass and few trees.
- sturdy:
- Strongly made or built.
- Why did people use sod to build their homes?
[anno: People used sod to build their homes because there were few trees on the prairies.]
- Draw a picture of your home. What materials were used to build the outside of your home? Label your drawing with the names of the different materials.
[anno: Drawings will vary but should show the outside of the students' homes. The materials of the outside of the home should be labeled.]

Heat oven to 400 degrees F and arrange a rack in the middle. Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Remove necks and any innards from the cavities and discard.
To spatchcock, use a sharp pair of poultry shears or kitchen scissors to cut along the backbone; remove and discard. Place chicken, breast-side up, and press down to flatten it to it is lying completely flat.
Combine remaining ingredients in a small bowl and mix until evenly combined. Season and adjust flavor as desired. Loosen the skin from the breast and legs of the chicken and, using your clean hands, spread 1/2 of the mixture underneath. Rub the remaining mixture all over the outside of the chicken. Set aside while oven heats up, at least 20 minutes.
Lay chicken in a roasting pan or baking dish fitted with a rack and roast until cooked an instant read thermometer inserted into the thigh registers 165 degrees F, about 50 to 60 minutes; let sit at least 10 minutes before carving. Serve with pan juices.

Revision history for Perl extension CPAN.
=head2 December 1998 after 1.41
Win32 could not process 2>&1. Fixed now. Thanks to Randy Kobes
<firstname.lastname@example.com> for the report.
'make test' seemed to hang because configuration was not yet done.
Changed the test to run without configuration.
=head2 July-November 1998 after 1.40
Added documentation by Graham Barr about perl on firewalls. Thanks,
Added documentation how I manage the populating of a perl freshly
installed perl.
Keep a backup copy of configuration files during commit.
Applied a patch by Norbert Goevert
<firstname.lastname@example.com> to fix the "CPAN.pm
overwrites Bundle/CPAN.pm" bug. Thanks, Norbert!
Introduced a signal PIPE ignore in CPAN::FirstTime so that hitting 'q'
during sitelist cannot throw you out of the whole program. Thanks to
chris patti <firstname.lastname@example.com> for the report.
Applied a patch by Slaven Rezic <email@example.com> to introduce
policies how often the cache is scanned for sizes. Currently
implemented "atstart' and 'never'. Interesting further options should
be 'after_install' (i.e. only after an install) and 'threaded' (i.e.
in a low priority thread).
Added a summary feedback at the end of a bundle install for easier
checking of what went wrong.
Don't require CPAN::Nox in CPAN::FirstTime::init if there is already
CPAN.pm loaded. Thanks to Albert Dvornik <email@example.com> for the
=head2 July 1998 after perl5.005 is out which contains 1.3901
Improved documentation of Bundle::CPAN, upped version number to
prevent accident where CPAN.pm overwrites Bundle/CPAN.pm.
Added a warning when CPAN::Bundle->contains() returns zero entries.
Disabled a shortcut in find_bundle_file() that was responsible for the
C<CPAN.pm overwrites Bundle/CPAN.pm> bug.
Added C<h> to DSLI statuses C<L> and C<I>.
Added some blurb for CPAN::WAIT in the manpage.
Changed the shell loop to check for question marks with a regex
instead of eq().
=head2 July 1998 after 1.3901
Added support for ncftpget and don't use ncftp anymore if ncftpget is
In the routine hosthard, add an optional C< < /dev/null >, so that
ncftp doesn't hang. I fear this would introduce incompatibilities with
other OSes, so it must be turned on explicitly. [Left undocumented]
Larry Virden reports that nonsense files can result from bad user
input. Fix: Delete files after localize() if we didn't succeed.
=head2 July 1998 after 1.39
Insert a few C<local($/)="\n"> to work around a bug in threaded perl.
Sarathy puts this version into 5.004_72 as 1.3901
=head2 July 1998 after 1.38
Folded in Ilya's changes to the CPAN::FirstTime that comes with perl.
=head2 June 1998 after 1.37
Applied a patch by Lupe Christoph <email@example.com> that fixed a
newly introduced bug in FirstTime due to the recent %Config "fix". The
recent fix introduced a check of %Config for external programs tar,
gzip, etc. This fix revealed that Config.pm does not check for many of
these externals but nonetheless defines them as "". Lupe introduced
more checks to guard against such Configs.
=head2 June 1998
Made help an alias for h (Thanks to Stig HackVan <firstname.lastname@example.com>
for the hint)
Constant functions in Compress::Zlib now called with FOO() instead of
"Preston L. Bannister" <email@example.com> reported two Win32 problems
in CPAN::FirstTime: don't test for existance of exe files and try to
determine make from %Config. Fixed.
Following a suggestion by Tkil <firstname.lastname@example.com>, I made bye and exit
aliases for quit.
Thanks to a bug report by Andrew Johnson
<firstname.lastname@example.com> tracked the buggy translation from
distribution names to authors' names after the authors' directories
Thanks to a suggestion by Jarkko Hietaniemi, added output of the
author's email address in several places, so the users can pester them
more easily.
=head2 May 1998
Courtesy Mark Conty <email@example.com> patch to let the funkyftp
programs deal with any protocol, not only ftp. We'll see how well this
works out.
=head2 April 1998
Disables Compress::Zlib with CPAN::Nox.
Added email address to ``Contact Author'' message, so they are
encouraged to write them immediately.
Suppressing ``There's a new CPAN.pm available'' when they are already
trying to install exactly that.
=head2 February 1998
Fixed the logic when to use Archive::Tar and when to use a system
call. Priority takes the system call because Archive::Tar is slow. If
tar or gzip isn't there, we use the modules. Besides, this fixes a
horrible bug in 1.35 that breaks havoc if Archive::Tar is there but
Compress::Zlib is missing. That's the reason why I make this release
so quickly. Thanks to D Roland Walker <firstname.lastname@example.com> for the
=head2 January 1998
Activated the code for Archive::Tar support. After Sarathy's updates
to Archive::Tar it seems ready for prime time.
Retrofit for 5.003 again.
FirstTime: Moved the configuration of proxies up, so they are
configured before the URLs come.
=head2 January 1998
Renamed packages CPAN::Gzip and CPAN::Tar to CPAN::Tarzip.
Discovered that version 1.33 was broken for modules that want to
implement a dialog in Makefile.PL. Released 1.34 with a step back to
calling system() for the 'perl Makefile.PL' call instead of the
proposed open(PIPE).
=head2 January 1998
Larry Virden reported: "cpan> install Image::Colorimetry" doesn't give
an answer at all. We are more verbose now.
Applied a patch by Ilya Zakharevich to improve the documentation.
Simplified CPAN::FirstTime for Newbies (automatic configuration
available), advanced users (the MIRRORED.BY list is available for
selecting CPAN sites) and myself (code overhaul).
Made the output of 'o conf' more verbose: now tells us which
Configuration files have been read.
Added a Gzip abstraction layer that works with Compress::Zlib as well
as with the previously used system().
Added support for Archive::Tar. I had to comment it out again, because
I found a bug in Archive::Tar.
Updated Bundle::CPAN to reflect Compress::Zlib and Archive::Tar.
Documented how the signal handling within the shell is supposed to
Added a Signal breakpoint to 'r' and 'u' command.
Changed the 'perl Makefile.PL' call from system() to open().
=head2 January 2, 1998: v1.32
This release fixes the most urgent bugs reported during the last 5
months. See the Todo file for unfixed bugs and planned features.
Please let me know if your bug report isn't addressed in one of the
"Changes" or "Todo" file. Let me know, if your favorite feature
request doesn't show up there. Maybe I've overlooked something. Thank
CPAN::Config::load no longer changes @INC (bug spotted by Ed Peschko)
Build a new perl only when C<force> is in effect or they asked for it
via the Distribution name. (Thanks to Ulrich Pfeifer and many others
for reporting this)
Reenabled the Cache Manager that was disabled for a long time, I don't
know why. Thanks to Paul-Joseph de Werk <email@example.com> and
Hallvard B Furuseth <email@example.com> for spotting the bug.
Fixed a "Use of undefined value" warning in the completion when
Fixed the signal handling code to go back to the cpan prompt and not
leave the shell loop. Still a second ^C is interpreted as user panic
which causes a cleanup and bye bye. (Thanks to Tom, Jarkko and Ilya
for reporting the deficiency in the old code)
If LWP is present, Net::FTP is now being tried directly. It turned out
that some networks setups work well with only one of them, not the
other (Thanks for the reports from e.g. Alan Burlison, Stephen Zander,
Phil Aston, et al.).
If a package comes with a Makefile but no Makefile.PL, we now try to
use that Makefile. Previously we overwrote the delivered Makefile.
(Thanks to Larry Virden for spotting that)
The MANPAGE headline now gets extracted from a .pod file if the .pm
file doesn't contain any.
=head2 October, 1997
In CPAN::FTP::hosteasy no longer skip Net::FTP when LWP is available.
Thanks to Alan Burlison for the report.
=head2 September, 1997
Made it 5.003 compatible again.
Applied a *big* documentation patch by Larry Virden. Thank You, Larry!
=head2 September, 1997
Hugo van der Sanden sent me a patch to (a) ignore a SIGPIPE when in
the readme, and (b) enable the cache to be used as an incomplete CPAN
site that in turn offers its files via ftp. The index files are now
stored with their original names instead of the 8.3 counterparts. I
very much like this new feature. Thanks, Hugo!
=head2 still September, 1997
is_reachable had to go again, firewalls may not allow us to ping
sorting of hosts did lead to some use of undefined value warnings ->
Released as 1.3101
=head2 September, 1997
Fixed Bundle::Foo::Bar. More than one level deep nesting could not be
read. Thanks to Jarkko Hietaniemi for the hint.
STDOUT/STDERR abstraction layer introduced to allow a Tk frontend to
do its own output. Current output producing methods are myprint,
mywarn, mydie, myconfess. I don't know how many of these will
evolve. I'm coordinating this development with Nathan Patwardhan from
O'Reilly who is likely to produce something along Tk or so. There's a
routine print_ornamented where colorprinting may be turned on manually
to allow easy debugging. Please see the code. Please speak up if you
have an opinion on that matter.
Introduced the use of Net::Ping to check for reachability, because the
timeouts seem too long for Net::FTP or LWP::Protocol::ftp.
Allowing continuation lines in the shell.
Improved method readme for packages without a README, but still it
hurts to use ncftp and lynx. But still we can't be sure that we don't
need ncftp or lynx, e.g. for firewalls.
CPAN::FTP::localize broken into 4 routines that should be accessible
in any order. If we encounter the first successful download we
remember both method and host and try to stick with it. I'm not in
favor of making this accessible publicly as I regard it as heavily
session-dependent. (Thanks to Martijn Koster for the suggestion)
Fixed unnecessary recursion in has_inst(). An eval {require...} should
do in any case.
=head2 August 28, 1997
Jarkko's suggestion for a better message when they type an unknown
command: Unknown command "..." Type ? for help.
=head2 August 21, 1997
Always try file: URLs first (except for index files) to avoid traffic
when we have the file already on a CDROM somewhere.
=head2 August 11, 1997
Tidied up the inheritance of CPAN -> MM. In a future version this
inheritance will go away and MM will be just used statically.
Now delaying the require CPAN::WAIT until somebody really runs a w*
CPAN::Module::cpan_version now also returns the string "undef"
whenever we can't determine which version is out there.
Now trying to get files as gzipped files earlier immediately after we
fail to get a file and that file has no .gz suffix. Earlier versions
delayed this try until we had visited all hosts in the urllist.
=head2 August 2 1997
Retrofit for 5.003 again (thanks to Vladimir Alexiev
<firstname.lastname@example.com> for the patch)
Touch files back to 1997. There were files with timestamps 2020 due to
an error on my side.
Protocol change in the file 02packages on CPAN. A version of 0 is OK
from now, a version of "undef" is an unrecognized version. This means
that with the upcoming release there will only few "undef" versions be
reported, because we have to tell CPAN to re-investigate all "0"
versions, and that'll probably take some time.
Fixed a bug in Bundle when we have no clue what Bundle they are
talking about.
Fixed completion for array options. Try ``o conf urllist TAB''.
Reordered sequence how we try to access an URL: first we try all URLs
with LWP and Net::FTP, then we switch to lynx and ncftp, last resort
is ftp. Introduced new subroutine talk_ftp to factor out some
duplicate code.
Made code clearer wrt gzip/gunzip during lynx and ncftp calls.
=head2 July 1997
Applied a patch by Ilya Zakharevich <email@example.com> to use
binmode before checking the checksum.
Got "cwd" patch from Ilya and accomodated it by introducing CPAN::cwd
and CPAN::getcwd.
Eliminated the hasLWP, hasFTP, hasWAIT, hasMD5 routines in favor of a
runtime solution with a single has() method. This makes it possible
use the packages immediately after installation without restarting
Major code review under the light of a new AutoSplit.pm. AutoLoading
doesn't work yet, but we're closer, I hope.
Updated Bundle::CPAN to fit better current needs and changed the
initial prompt to suggest Bundle::CPAN instead of just the Term
Skipping lynx, ncftp, and other external programs if they aren't
defined or empty strings.
=head2 June 1997
After carefully checking which changes have been made in perl5.00401,
I dare to release what I'm currently working with as 1.25.
Many small improvements have been made, but several bigger things are
still missing.
=head2 May 1997
Richard L. Maus, Jr. <email@example.com> patch that adds -c switch to
Improved CPAN::FirstTime to better check for valid options.
Removed a stupid -x check on external ftp programs that hindered
executing of programs in the PATH.
Improved debugging to inhibit "use of undefined..." messages.
Improved renaming to .bak files and renaming back in case we cannot
download for some reason.
Now advertise Bundle::libnet instead of Net::FTP.
Improved debugging and error checking of system calls, especially
added a test after a download if the file has >0 bytes (lynx returns
status 0 despite some errors).
Added support for Foo.pm.gz files that can still be found on CPAN.
=head2 April 16 1997
Applied patch by Achim Bohnet to the TRL logic (To:
email@example.com Subject: CPAN & TRL-Gnu Date: Fri, 04 Apr 1997
10:09:03 +0200 From: Achim Bohnet <firstname.lastname@example.com>)
which was already in 5.003_97e btw.
Fixed leading whitespace bug discovered by Karl Glazebrook
=head2 March 31 1997
Fix bug with Bundle files that are not in the distribution's root
Added tolerance when a file is available in an older version but
cannot be retrieved for some reason. (Suggested by Dale Amon and
Ulrich Pfeifer)
Fixed the duplicate writing of a Makefile and experimented with
alternatives in the inactivity_timeout code. Thanks to Randal Schwartz
and Larry Virden for continued heads up on this.
=head2 Feb and March 1997
Speedups during reading of the indices (Revision 1.125-128).
Tiny speedups of CacheMgr. Elimination of clean_cache and substituing
a call to force_clean_cache. Changed a couple of debugging statements.
Improved feedback upon the invocation of a FirstTime dialog: we tell
user which variables are missing.
Beautified spacing with the help of Ilya's newest cperl-mode.
Made the use of Cwd::cwd configurable. Default is ->cwd, but ->getcwd
makes sense on some non UNIX systems (hint by Dominic Dunlop).
Added an __END__
Improved message "don't know what it is" with a hint to try "i" command.
External programs are now run even more blindish. No check if they
look executable before we run them.
Released 1.22_01.
=head2 Feb 11, 1997
Wrong "Unknown argument" message when argument was lowercase fixed.
Better help for "reload".
Fixed the mysterious "loss of ReadLine" bug which was really a hidden
call to $Suppress_readline++ :-(.
Fixed Config->{wait_list} becoming larger and larger.
Reading 03modlist.data.txt with $/=undef now (Thanks to Dominic Dunlop
for the hint).
Added the somehow lost display of "CONTAINS" for bundles.
Released 1.21
=head2 Feb 5, 1997
Changed warn to print for the "Reading..." messages.
1.19 issued the ->load command too early, so inheritance was not yet
set up correctly. Now later.
Inserted the -Mops test suggested by Tim Bunce. Backed it out again,
because it caches too many Makefie.PLs. Restructured
CPAN::Distribution::make preparing for better (i.e. arbitrary) safety
handlers. Not yet finished.
Workaround for bug in _25: return statements at the end of
released 1.20
=head2 Feb 3, 1997
With ReadLine suppressed, CPAN didn't exit of EOF. Fix by Roderick
Schertler E<lt>email@example.com<gt> applied.
=head2 Feb 2, 1997
Ulrich Pfeifer reports another permission problem with the Config
file. Fixed.
Found another $^X problem and fixed that too.
We now try to give sensible diagnostics when the CHECKSUMS file is
missing or incomplete.
Included a Bundle::CPAN file.
Released 1.18.
=head2 Feb 2, 1997
Now fetching MIRRORED.BY whenever we get the first URL in the init
dialogue. Offering a loop to correct the URL. Reading MIRRORED.BY if
it is younger than 30 days.
Simplified the inheritance tree considerably: Replaced MY with MM,
left CPAN::Debug only in the leaves.
Globalized the $term variable to have at least a chance to debug why
we're losing connection to ReadLine when we run 'o conf init'.
We have no API yet, but we have a Plugin :-) Thanks to Ulrich Pfeifer
for WAIT. Try 'wh' to see what gives.
Released 1.17.
=head2 Jan 29, 1997
More feedback for non-cooperative users.
Several potentially undefined variables now initialized.
Added support for ncftp. It is said to have superb features for sites
behind firewalls. We're now trying to use lynx or ncftp _before_
ordinary ftp.
Added option 'o conf init' to set all Configuration options
interactively whenever needed. Cannot document yet, because it breaks
ReadLine. Somehow ReadLine loses the connection to STDIN.
=head2 Jan 24, 1997
New Makefile.PL asks only questions to the very first user (when there
are no CPAN::Config nor CPAN::MyConfig files to load).
Again improved debugging capabilities for external ftp and
the completeness of Configuration parameters (load_succeeded).
Released 1.15.
=head2 Jan 24, 1997
Larry Virden discovered his hundredth bug. When the .netrc file
contains an autologin routine with "cd" for a given host, we did not
cd to the right directory. Fixed and improved debugging for the
external ftp invocation.
=head2 Jan 22, 1997
Found more incompatibilities: ParseWords had a bug that needs a
workaround. ref() worked slightly different too.
Fixed a bug in CPAN::Config::edit which set any value to undefined
when we just wanted to query it.
Fixed CPAN::FirstTime to have a locally set $/.
Gave FirstTime an automatically increasing version number.
=head2 Jan 22, 1997
Made it compatible with 5.003 for testing purposes. Thanks for
precious hints go to Mark D. Baushke again!
Released 1.11
=head2 Jan 20, 1997
Made the proxy environment variables configurable in the Config hash
(once again ;-)
Added documentation for readme and look.
Added completion for readme and look and fixed it for force.
reload cpan now just counts the redefined subroutines instead of
writing all the warnings to the screen. Made waiting less painful by
printing single dots (".") for very slow phases of the game.
Released as 1.10.
=head2 Jan 17, 1997
Raphael Manfredi considerably improved the logic of the external ftp
program. No .netrc needed anymore.
Made the proxy environment variables configurable in the Config hash.
Introduced the "Don't be silly..." message when they try to make,
test or install an author.
MD5 is now checked earlier (before we unroll the tarball).
Finished the readme method _without documenting it_. Documentation
follows after a short testing period. This method just displays the
readme file through a pager.
Implemented the look method _without documenting it_. Documentation
follows after a short testing period. This method opens a subprocess
shell in the associated directory, e.g. for manual building or
inspection. (Thanks to Gisle for the idea!)
=head2 Dec 23, 1996
Implemented the external-ftp fallback. We're deep in UNIX land here
again, sorry for that. We'll see how it goes on UNIX, then we can find
OS dependent fallbacks.
Released that as 1.08.
Another big documentation fix.
Fixed big bug in the parsing code for .netrc.
=head2 Dec 22, 1996
An afternoon of intense email exchange with Mark D. Baushke
E<lt>email@example.com<gt> helped to iron out some nits and make the
whole thing more robust. A big thank you to Mark.
The CPAN::Bundle class now knows about force.
File::Copy was not use()d but needed.
Documentation turned out to be wrong and contain references to dead
code. Especially the bundle() and the bundles() functions are now
removed. Muchly improved docu.
Made the whole source text friendlier to read by adding comments to
each subroutine hinting the package.
Inactivity timeout introduced that may kick in when a Makefile.PL
expects a response but doesn't get it.
Implemented a lynx fallback.
=head2 Dec 21, 1996
Improved bundle mechanism.
Eliminated the star "*" that should save us some memory but introduced
complications far beyond what its worth.
Checked over occurrences of rename(). Replaced the one that might fail
due to file system boundaries with File::Copy::copy.
Introduced Text::ParseWords::shellwords instead of split for the
parsed command lines. This means, you can now set variables to such
complicated things as
cpan> o conf make_install_args 'CC="gcc.96q1 -B/usr/ccs/bin/" UNINST=1'
Thanks to "Mark D. Baushke" <email@example.com> for the hint!!!
=head2 Dec 1, 1996
Added security, evals of CHECKSUMS and 03modlist.data.gz now take
place in Safe compartements.
CacheMgr now skips symlinks.
Released 0.45a.
=head2 Nov 30, 1996
New module CPAN::Nox is a wrapper with same functionality as CPAN.pm,
but it will not load XS modules. Useful in a situation where you get
caught by binary incomapatibility (Where nights are longest) of a new
perl installation and (say) MD5 kills your CPAN session. Makefile.PL
now uses CPAN::Nox.
New method recompile() recompiles all installed dynamically loadable
extensions in one go.
=head2 Nov 21, 1996
Introduced a few sanity checks on data in urllist in the Makefile.PL
to prevent bogus URLs being consulted over and over.
Doug sent me another patch because commit didn't work. Thank you, Doug!
Small fixes in read_modpacks: read all entries, even those without a +
sign; read all entries, even if we know them already, pay special
attention to the CPAN.pm entry :-)
The output of C<u> seemed a bit boring with all those C<Contact
author..> entries. I'm skipping those for now and display only those
that have a distribution file associated.
Introduced 'clean'. Works just like test and install.
=head2 Nov 17, 1996
Doug MacEachern contributed a powerful suite of interactive
manipulation of $CPAN::Config variables. Try 'o conf urllist' to get
an impreesion of the feature. The interactive changes can even be
committed back into the Config file. Wow. Thanks, Doug!
CHECKSUMS files were never reused. Now CPAN checks if an existing
CHECKSUMS file contains the checksum we're looking for.
C<install> quite a few times too often answered with "Foo::Bar is up
to date". Should be fixed now.
index files were never refetched. Fixed now.
Renamed misleading configuration option C<cache_expire> to
C<index_expire>, C<more> to C<pager>, and C<inhibit-startup-message>
to C<inhibit_startup_message>.
If make install does not succeed we now check for permission problems
and suggest to become superuser. The feature was suggested by Jon
Orwant. This will need a bit more work: check for uid, let them become
superuser without leaving the program and such.
Improved help in several places.
Released 0.42a.
=head2 Oct 1, 1996
Implemented "force". Usage is simply:
force make args...
force test args...
force install args...
This forces the fetch, untar, makefilepl, make and install even in
cases where CPAN thinks, the package is either up-to-date or cannot be
built or whatever.
=head2 Sep 28, 1996
cpan> ! install(CPAN::Shell->r) # install all recommendations
cpan> ! install(CPAN::Shell->u) # install all uninstalled
or if you prefer
cpan> ! install(grep(/^[F-I]/,CPAN::Shell->r)) # only install from File to IO :-)
following a Dale Amon suggestion. CPAN::Shell->r and u return the list
of module names that are printed on STDOUT.
Released 0.40a
=head2 Sep 26, 1996
Write Bundle/ (even if no previous call to "b" happened) whenever
Check for a "Configure" script before writing your own
Makefile.PL. Run ./configure if you find it.
Don't check for %Term::ReadLine::Perl::, because that may be defined
without a good reason. Better check for
Term::ReadLine::Perl::readline. That's still silly, but I don't
pretend it's clever. We need a way to determine if a readline
interface is governing us.
Checking if STDIN is a terminal and not running Term::ReadKey and
ReadLine if not. Saves time _and_ allows batchmode to forgive
keystrokes during program execution.
=head2 Sep 22, 1996
More friendly setting of debugging options.
More checking of write permissions.
Rename of bundles/ directory to Bundle/ (allows perldoc read the pods).
Simplified the code shared between "r" und "u" command, added
Deprecated "o index" because it isn't really an option but an action
and renamed it to "reload index". Added "reload cpan". Added "o update".
Released 0.35a.
=head2 Sep 17, 1996
Support for CHECKSUMS files that have been gzipped by your CPAN site
admin. Check if file is readable if it is a local file (and you are
your own CPAN site admin :-) Released 0.29.
Direct call of install/make/test/bundle etc. without shell was
broken. Fixed and relleased 0.28.
=head2 Sep 12, 1996
Release of 0.26a.
Local source cache was ignored, now working.
'perl Makefile.PL < /dev/null' now possible.
After release of 26a: Limit depth of modules to two levels to save
memory. Release of 0.27a.
=head2 Sep 11, 1996
Isolated both the FTP and the Shell subroutines into their own packages.
Made debug a method in package CPAN::Debug.
Added command o for setting options.
Added a newline here or there.
Added Ulrich's support for proxies.
=head2 Sep 10, 1996
Releasing Version 0.14-alpha. Nearly everything has been
rewritten. Too numerous changes to remember. This version is shell
oriented not batch oriented. Batches should be possible though.
Dropped the recommendation to install LWP, dropped the dependance on
LWP completely for UNIX systems.
Introduced CPAN::Config->{keep_source_where} as a pointer to the
directory where we store the fetched sources locally.
Introduced CPAN::Config->{makeplarg}, arguments to the '$^X
Makefile.PL' call.
Check for Net::FTP even when LWP is available.
Remove the lockfile in a signal handler.
Motherhoodified the pod section ;-)
=head2 Apr 28, 1996
0.04-alpha version announced only to the porters
0.01 Mon Feb 19 15:06:30 1996

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – P.J. Hairston scored 23 points, James Michael McAdoo added 17 and North Carolina unleashed a flurry of 3-pointers to subdue gritty Villanova 78-71 in the NCAA tournament Friday night, giving coach Roy Williams his 700th career victory.
The never-say-die Wildcats (20-14) erased a 20-point deficit that North Carolina built in the first half and then nearly climbed out of a nine-point hole in the final minutes after the Tar Heels hit three consecutive 3s and once again appeared to take control.
The victory set up a possible dream matchup in the third round for Kansas fans, who have been jamming the Sprint Center in downtown Kansas City, about 30 minutes from the Jayhawks' campus. The eighth-seeded Tar Heels (25-10) take on the winner between Western Kentucky and No. 1 seed Kansas, where Williams coached for 15 years and rang up more than 400 wins.

At what juncture have you reached the Facebook point of no return? Maybe it's when you post the minutia of every meal you ate for seven days straight. Perhaps it's when you start having Farmville dreams.
It turns out Facebook addiction may be a real thing. It's a bit like what you see in "The Godfather." You may try to get out, but it keeps pulling you back in.
Much like "Star Wars," Facebook has a dark side. There are people who neglect family and work in exchange for time spent wrapped up in social networking. Some researchers have even suggested there is such thing as "Facebook depression" among adolescents, but the studies aren't very definitive.
Now, a report from Harvard suggests boasting on Facebook can feel as good as sex. That's a pretty compelling reason to spend your every waking hour clinging to status updates, reading comments, and collecting "Likes."
This is not to say Facebook is some Internet monster sent from Hades to devour all your free time and dominate your thoughts. Lots of people have healthy, normal relationships with Facebook. They use it to stay connected with friends and colleagues and keep up with family, without sacrificing quality in other areas of their lives.
Facebook, of course, isn't the only tech phenomenon that's sucking up our time (hello, smartphones!), but let's focus in on this social-networking behemoth for now. It's time to 'fess up. Is there a downside to your Facebook use? Vote in our poll and talk it out in the comments.
Star Wars: Episode 9 filming wraps: But where's that title? Director J.J. Abrams says the milestone "feels impossible."
Jeff Bezos just confirmed what we all knew: Nudes are no big deal: Commentary: The Amazon CEO says he's being blackmailed over nudes. But do I want to see tech tycoon dick pics? No thank you, Mr. Pecker.

Last week was an important week in the British literary calendar–the week of Hay Festival! Set in beautiful Hay-on-Wye on the Welsh Borders, and running since 1988, the festival attracts thousands of book and culture enthusiasts from around the world every year. This year's line-up was as strong as ever: with names such as Toni Morrison, Richard Dawkins, Stephen Fry, Mervin King, Jeremy Paxman, Simon Schama, Sebastian Faulks, William Dalrymple, Benedict Cumberbatch, Bear Grylls, Max Hastings, Rob Brydon, Bill Bailey and Dame Judi Dench (to name but a few to catch my eye in the jam-packed programme), 2014's Festival could not fail to enthrall and delight anyone who walked its muddy paths.
And of course, Princeton University Press authors have been gracing the Hay stages this year, with a variety of wonderful events. From Diane Coyle, explaining GDP to us in plain English (and lo0king very stylish in her Hay wellies) to Michael Wood (translator of Dictionary of Untranslatables) discussing words that defy easy–or any–translation from one language and culture to another, to Ian Goldin's talk about globalization and risk (The Butterfly Defect), last weekend got off to a great start.
Then, earlier in the week, Jacqueline Mitton (author of From Dust to Life) took a gripped audience on a journey through the history of our solar system in her "John Maddox Lecture". On Tuesday, Rosie Boycott spoke to Simon Blackburn about his book Mirror, Mirror–a fascinating conversation which covered everything from psychopathic tendencies displayed in senior management to whether Facebook is really that damaging to the young. Francisco Bethencourt, meanwhile, managed to squeeze a history of racisms into an hour and gave us lots to ponder.
If all this leaves you wishing you'd been there, there is still more to envy! Later in the week, Roger Scruton, Will Gompertz and others discussed the value of a Fine Art degree – does contemporary art celebrate concept without skill? On a parallel stage, renowned historian Averil Cameron (author of Byzantine Matters) convinced us that an understanding of the Byzantine era is just as important as studying, say, Rome or Greece. Finally, Michael Scott (author of Delphi), whom it is almost impossible to miss on the BBC these days, delivered a talk about Delphi: A History of the Center of the Ancient World on Friday.
Whether you swoon for science are potty for poetry, whether you want to dance the night away in a frenzy of jazz or are hoping to meet your favourite on-screen star, Hay Festival offers something new and exciting every year.

A greenhouse grower in Ontario plans to be energy independent by May with hopes of ultimately selling power back to the utility company as it switches to biomass gasification and solar power.
Mor Gro Farms Inc., Leamington, Ontario, started trial burns in mid-March, said Tom Trojniak, director of marketing and quality control.
"We"ve been using waste wood chips so far and will test miscanthus grass (pellets) next," Trojniak said.
"Everything is working and there are already two other companies that are interested in having similar systems designed."
The biomass gasification unit at Mor Gro"s 50-acre greenhouse operation was conceived by Green Grorganics Inc., a company founded by Marisa Pereira, wife of Mor Gro"s sales manager Dave Pereira and daughter of Mor Gro owner John Moauro.
Marisa Pereira worked with Bijendra Heavy Electricals Ltd., Meerut, India, to design and build the biomass gasification unit for the greenhouse that is home to the Smarty Brand label.
The unit is unique to Mor Gro"s operation, but Green Grorganics Inc. has distribution rights with Bijendra to market similar systems in North America.
The systems use a burning process that reaches almost 1,500 degrees Fahrenheit to turn pellets made of waste materials including everything from wood chips to used tires into a combustible gas that is used to heat the greenhouse via boilers.
Trojniak said they plan to add a generator to the system so the gasification unit can be used to create electricity.
He said a byproduct of the gasification process is carbon dioxide, which will be pumped back into the greenhouse to benefit the growing tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers.
The high temperature of the gasification process refines and destroys corrosive ash elements such as chloride and potassium, making it a cleaner option than traditional boiler systems.

La Leche League Leaders are volunteers -- mothers who have breastfed their own babies for a year or more and support LLLI's philosophy of mothering through breastfeeding -- who lead LLL meetings and help other mothers with breastfeeding questions by phone or online.
If you're interested in supporting other mothers as an LLL Leader, you can get started by finding an LLL Group near you. Attending meetings, getting more involved by holding a Group job, if possible, and becoming a member of LLL are the next steps. The Leader(s) in your Group will be able to help you apply for LLL Leadership if you meet the prerequisites.
If there are no Groups where you live, you may be able to work directly with the Leader Accreditation Department and be the one to bring LLL to your area once you're accredited!
Even if there are many Leaders where you live, your help is needed. More Leaders mean more meetings can be offered, at different times to meet the needs of more mothers. It means a mother is more likely to be able to reach someone by phone when she really needs it. You can even help mothers far away by answering online Help Forms or moderating on the forums.
For more information and FAQs, please see the Thinking About LLL Leadership pages.

Iran's parliament approved an overwhelming majority of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's cabinet nominees on Thursday, overriding criticisms that he had favored loyalty over competence in choosing some key ministers.
"The president wants to be the ruler in sensitive ministries. So he has introduced people whose major quality is that they are 'yes-men,' " conservative lawmaker Ali Motahari told the Mehr News Agency ahead of deliberations.
Among the most controversial nominees approved were:
• Defense Minister Ahmad Vahidi, wanted by Argentina for the 1994 bombing of a Jewish center.
• Intelligence Minister Heydar Moslehi, whom critics say has never worked in intelligence.
• Masoud Mirkazemi, who will be overseeing the oil ministry of the world's fifth-largest oil exporter but who has no previous experience in the industry.
All three – as well as Interior Minister Mostafa Mohammad Najar – have been linked to Iran's Revolutionary Guard, a paramilitary organization that publicly took responsibility for curbing post-election dissent this summer.
And over the protests of conservative religious leaders, lawmakers approved the first female minister in the history of the Islamic republic – Marzieh Vahid Dastjerdi, who will oversee the Health Ministry. A gynecologist with little administrative experience who has suggested health care be gender-segregated, she was criticized by reformers as too traditional and hard-line to advance women's rights.
Lawmakers rejected only three of Mr. Ahmadinejad's 21 nominees, a third of whom had been part of his first administration. Notably, Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki retained his post, which is being interpreted as a sign that Iran's hard-line approach to nuclear negotiations is likely to be upheld.
During the prolonged deliberation period, which began Sunday and was extended a day, Ahmadinejad confronted his opponents, particularly those who had criticized several key nominees' ties to the Revolutionary Guard, according to Khabar Online. (For more on the Revolutionary Guard read the Monitor's recent briefing.)
"If we accept this logic that a military figure or a member of Revolutionary Guards Corps cannot serve in the other posts, we will obstruct many ways," Ahmadinejad said, pointing out that parliamentary speaker and former nuclear negotiator Ali Larijani was a member of the Revolutionary Guard.
Then, reports Khabar Online, an Iranian news website, Ahmadinejad's tone became confused and furious. Calling himself a "self-sacrificer," he lambasted those who had insulted him "in the most severe manner" – including implying that he was a puppet of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.
"For selecting each of these ministers, I firstly convinced myself and then I tried to find a clear explanation for my choices to present to the God Almighty," he said.
Here are the key ministers chosen by Ahmadinjad and confirmed by parliament:
Defense Minister Ahmad Vahidi
A former deputy defense minister and chairman of the Expediency Council's political and defense committee, Mr. Vahidi received the heartiest approval of all Ahmadinejad's nominees.
Argentina wants Vahidi arrested for his alleged role in the 1994 bombing of a Jewish cultural center that killed 85 people; Interpol agreed two years ago to help Argentina seek his arrest, and his nomination as defense minister was widely condemned internationally.
But in Iran, where senior lawmaker and presidential ally Alaeddin Boroujerdi called the international effort to arrest Vahidi a "Zionist plot," he seems to be something of an anti-Israel hero. After 227 of 286 lawmakers approved his nomination, they chanted "Death to Israel!" according to the Los Angeles Times.
Vahidi is widely reported to be the former commander in chief of an elite unit in the Revolutionary Guard known as the Quds Force. According to globalsecurity.org, the Quds Force trains Islamic fundamentalist terrorist groups in Iran and abroad.
Intelligence Minister Heydar Moslehi
Mr. Moslehi also has links to the Revolutionary Guard, having served as the Supreme Leader's representative to the basij, an affiliated force of millions of volunteers who helped to quell protesting after the disputed June 12 election this year.
A cleric, he meets the constitutional requirement that all intelligence ministers come from the robed class, but critics say he has no experience in intelligence. Lawmakers supported him in a vote of 194 to 67, with 25 abstentions.
Ahmadinejad's last intelligence minister was fired in late July as the president and his allies intensified pressure for the mass trial of more than 100 people arrested in the aftermath of the elections, and the use of confessions believed to be extracted under duress.
According to Rooz Online, the Ministry of Intelligence has created a new branch to figure out who leaked information about the secret burial of those killed in post-election violence.
"It is unfortunate that instead of pursuing those who perpetrate such illegal, unethical and inhuman acts, the Ministry of Intelligence is trying to find out who has exposed the illegal activities and possibly arresting them," an anonymous source described as a "senior specialist [with] a long record of confronting reformers" told Rooz.
Oil Minister Masoud Mirkazemi
Ahmadinejad's former commerce minister, Mr. Mirkazemi is a former commander in the Revolutionary Guard, which has significantly increased its economic power under the current president – particularly in the energy sector. However, he is a newcomer to the Oil Ministry and has no experience in the industry, according to the Associated Press, which notes that 80 percent of Iran's foreign revenues come from oil exports.
Nevertheless, Ahmadinejad seems convinced his ally is well prepared to run one of the country's most crucial sectors, calling him a "brave combatant." Lawmakers voted 147-117 in favor of Mirkazemi, who holds a PhD in industrial engineering a formerly served as chancellor of Shahed University.
