Release Notes
10g Release 2 (10.2.0.5) for IBM AIX on POWER Systems (64-Bit)
April 2013
These Release Notes describe issues you may encounter with Oracle Database Vault 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.5). The Oracle Database Vault installation is covered in detail in Oracle Database Vault Installation Guide for IBM AIX on POWER Systems (64-Bit).
This document may be updated after it is released. To check for updates to this document and to view other Oracle documentation, see the Documentation section on the Oracle Technology Network (OTN) Web site:
This document contains the following sections:
This section describes the known issues pertaining to installation. It also provides the workarounds that you can use.
Bug 9587181
The Database Vault Administrator (DVA) link does not work after an upgrade from Oracle Database Vault 10.2.0.4 to 10.2.0.5.
You can use the following workaround steps:
Set the
ORACLE_SID, and
PATH environment variables.
Stop the Enterprise Manager Database Control process. Use the following command:
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/emctl stop dbconsole
Edit the file,
/config/server.xml. Enter the following line just before the last line that reads,
<application name="dva" path="$ORACLE_HOME/dv/jlib/dva_webapp.ear" auto-start="true" />
For example:
<application name="dva" path="/home/oracle/product/10.2.0/db1/dv/jlib/dva_webapp.ear" auto-start="true" />
Edit the file,
/config/http-web-site.xml. Enter the following line just above the last line that reads,
<web-app application="dva" name="dva_webapp" root="/dva" />
Start the Enterprise Manager Database Control process. Use the following command:
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/emctl start dbconsole
Bug 7006861
The Database Vault Administrator (DVA) console starts if both the Database Vault installer and the Enterprise Manager (EM) instance exist on the same local node. But, the DVA application does not start if you run the Database Vault installer from a remote node.
Workaround: If you have run the Database Vault installer from a remote node, then to start the DVA application, perform the following:
Shut down any existing EM instances:
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/emctl stop dbconsole
Start the EM instance explicitly on the remote node:
emca -reconfig dbcontrol -cluster
Now, start DVA from the remote node:
emctl start dbconsole
Bug 5577503
The Database Vault installer fails to install Database Vault in an existing physical standby database.
You can create a new physical standby database by using the following steps:
Install Database Vault on the primary database.
Create a physical standby database using a hot backup of the primary database. This backup should include the Oracle home.
Set up communications between the primary and the physical standby database. Redo logs communicate changes from the primary database to the standby database.
See Also:
Article ID 754065.1, titled "Installing Database Vault in a Data Guard Environment" on My Oracle Support (formerly OracleMetaLink):
Oracle Data Guard Concepts and Administration for more information on creating a physical standby database
Bug 5613521
After installing Database Vault on a database, and running the postinstallation steps on the nodes, you get an error when trying to access Enterprise Manager.
Also, when you try to check the status of
dbconsole using the
emctl status dbconsole command, you get a message saying that the EM daemon is not running even though the process is running.
The workaround is to manually restart the
dbconsole process using the following commands:
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/emctl stop dbconsole $ORACLE_HOME/bin/emctl start dbconsole
Bug 6630191
After you install Database Vault, the database instances and listeners on the remote nodes do not start automatically. You must start these manually.
This is expected behavior. The
DVCA utility configures the local node, and starts the database instance and listener processes on the local node. You must start these processes manually on each of the remote nodes.
Bug 6658315
The following steps are used to create a cloned Database Vault instance:
Install Oracle Database Vault 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.5) in the first Oracle home.
Clone the first instance to create a second Oracle home.
Run Net Configuration Assistant (NetCA) and Database Configuration Assistant (DBCA) to configure a listener and database for the cloned instance.
Run DBCA again to configure Oracle Label Security (OLS) for the cloned instance.
Run Database Vault Configuration Assistant (DVCA) as follows:
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/dvca -action option -oh oracle_home -jdbc_str jdbc_connection_string -sys_passwd SYS_password -owner_account DV_owner_account_name -owner_passwd DV_owner_account_password -acctmgr_account DV_account_manager_account_name -acctmgr_passwd DV_account_manager_password -logfile ./dvca.log -nodecrypt
The following SQL statement shows that the cloned Database Vault instance contains invalid objects:
SQL> select count(*) from all_objects where status = 'INVALID'; COUNT(*) ---------- 45
The workaround is to run the
utlrp.sql script. This script recompiles all
PL/SQL modules that might be in an invalid state, including packages, procedures, and types. Use the following commands to run the
utlrp.sql script:
cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin sqlplus SYS "AS SYSDBA" Enter password: SQL> @utlrp.sql
Bug 6140164
After you add a second node to a single-node Oracle Real Application Clusters (Oracle RAC) installation, the following error occurs when you try to configure Database Vault security for the second node:
ORA-32001: write SPFILE requested but no SPFILE specified at startup
The following steps reproduce the bug:
Install Oracle Clusterware on a 2-node cluster.
Install Oracle Database Vault on the first node.
Run the
addnode.sh script on the first node to add the second node.
Configure the database listener and database instance for the second node.
Run the following
ALTER SYSTEM statements on the second node:
The workaround is to run the following steps before running the
addnode.sh script in Step 3:
Note:These steps must be run from the first node.
Shut down the database.
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/srvctl stop database -d db_name
Start the database with the
nomount option.
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/srvctl start database -d db_name -o nomount
Connect to the database
sqlplus SYS "AS SYSDBA" Enter password:
Create a server parameter file (
SPFILE) using the traditional initialization parameter file (
PFILE). The initialization parameter file is usually located at
$ORACLE_HOME/admin/db_name/pfile for Optimal Flexible Architecture compliant databases.
For example:
SQL> CREATE SPFILE='SHARED_LOCATION/spfileORACLE_SID.ora' FROM 'PFILE=ORACLE_HOME/admin/db_name/pfile/initORACLE_SID.ora'
This statement reads the text initialization parameter file to create a server parameter file. You must have the or
SYSOPER system privilege to run the
CREATE SPFILE statement.
Shut down the database.
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/srvctl stop database -d db_name
Clear the current contents of the initialization parameter file. Add the server parameter file location in the initialization parameter file:
SPFILE = 'SHARED_LOCATION/spfileORACLE_SID.ora'
Restart the database.
For example:
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/srvctl start database -d db_name
Bug 7506215
The Database Vault installer swap space requirement test may fail in some cases even when enough swap space is available.
The swap space required for installation should not exceed 16GB. In case the required swap space is shown as more than 16 GB, this warning can be safely ignored.
Bug 9559735
After installing Database Vault and manually deploying the Database Vault Administrator (DVA) application, you may get the following error when trying to access the Web page:
500 Internal Server Error
The workaround is to set and export the
LIBPATH environment variable:
LIBPATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib32:$ORACLE_HOME/lib:$LIBPATH export LIBPATH
Bug 9888841
Oracle Database Vault Installation Guide for IBM AIX on POWER Systems (64-Bit) includes instructions to upgrade a previous version of Oracle Database Vault to Oracle Database Vault 10.2.0.5. One of the upgrade steps requires the user to run the
catmac.sql script. The Oracle Database Vault Installation Guide advises the user to spool the output of this script into a file in order to look for errors.
The spooled output file may include the following errors:
ORA-01920: user name 'DVSYS' conflicts with another user or role name ORA-01920: user name 'DVF' conflicts with another user or role name SP2-0310: unable to open file catmaca.sql ORA-01952: system privileges not granted to 'DBA' ORA-00955: name is already used by an existing object ORA-02260: table can have only one primary key
You can safely ignore these error messages.
Bug 10033496
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges error may be generated during the Lock DVSYS phase of the Database Vault installation process. This may be caused by a low shared pool size.
The workaround is to increase the shared pool size to a larger value. To set the shared pool size, use the following SQL statement:
There may be invalid objects in the database after you install Oracle Database Vault.
Log into SQL*Plus as a user who has been granted the
SYSDBA administrative privilege. For example:
sqlplus sys as sysdba
Enter password: password
In SQL*Plus, perform the following query to find invalid objects.
If there are invalid objects, then run the
utlrp.sql script, which by default is located in the
$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin directory, to recompile the invalid objects.
If the
utlrp.sql script provides any instructions, follow them, and then run the script again. If the script terminates abnormally without giving any instructions, then run it again.
Oracle Bug: 7631281
This section discusses usage issues that you may encounter with Database Vault. It also provides the workarounds for these issues.
Bug 5161953
Accounts with the
DV_ADMIN, or
DV_SECANALYST role cannot run the following command:
ALTER USER user QUOTA UNLIMITED ON tablespace
The workaround is to
REVOKE the role from the account, run the
ALTER USER command, and then
GRANT back the role to the account. This works if the account is not the
DV_OWNER account that was created during installation. If the account is the
DV_OWNER account created during installation, then you would must use the following steps:
Disable the Database Vault command rule for the
ALTER USER command.
Run the
ALTER USER command.
Re-enable the Database Vault command rule for the
ALTER USER command.
This section covers some of the frequently asked questions related to Database Vault installation. Oracle Database Vault installation is covered in detail in Oracle Database Vault Installation Guide for IBM AIX on POWER Systems (64-Bit).
The installer does not detect my existing Oracle Database Enterprise Edition 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.5) instance. What should I do?
To allow the installer to find the database instance information, you should check the following:
The database home has Oracle Enterprise Manager Console DB 10.2.0.5.0 installed.
For an Oracle Real Application Clusters (Oracle RAC) database, ensure that Oracle Clusterware is running on all nodes.
For an Oracle Real Application Clusters (Oracle RAC) database, make sure that the
srvctl utility can be run from the Oracle Clusterware home and the Oracle RAC database home.
The file
inventory.xml under
oraInventory/ContentsXML correctly lists the Oracle home information including the node names (for Oracle RAC).
/etc/oratab has an entry for the database. This entry is case-sensitive.
All database names listed in
/etc/oratab have unique system identifier (SID) names.
The file,
/etc/oraInst.loc exists.
The oraInventory location is set in the
/etc/oraInst.loc file.
The oraInventory location set in
/etc/oraInst.loc is the same as the 10.2.0.5 Enterprise Edition database's oraInventory location.
The 10.2.0.5 database home does not have Oracle Database Vault in it.
The 10.2.0.5 database home does not contain an Automatic Storage Management (ASM) instance.
I have installed Oracle Database Vault into an Oracle home that has multiple databases. How do I secure the other databases in the Oracle home?
You would must run Database Vault Configuration Assistant (DVCA) manually on the other databases. Refer to Oracle Database Vault Installation Guide for IBM AIX on POWER Systems (64-Bit) for detailed instructions.
I have installed Oracle Database Vault on a Real Application Clusters (Oracle RAC) database instance. How do I secure the other nodes in the cluster?
You must configure Database Vault security on the other Oracle RAC nodes. Refer to Oracle Database Vault Installation Guide for IBM AIX on POWER Systems (64-Bit) for detailed instructions.
This section contains miscellaneous notes not covered in the Oracle Database Vault documentation.
The keyword
SNAPSHOT is supported in place of
MATERIALIZED VIEW for backward compatibility.
JOB_QUEUE_PROCESSES initialization parameter specifies the maximum number of processes that can be created for the execution of jobs. It specifies the number of job queue processes per instance.
This parameter must have a non-zero value. The default value for
JOB_QUEUE_PROCESSES is 10.

On Wednesday, CBN News posted a story about the use of adult stem cells to treat heart disease. Dr. Roberto Bolli at the University of Louisville has completed an adult stem cell treatment on 16 heart failure patients — and the study was largely successful.
The article reports:
"It's not hype, it is really hope," he said. "I think that stem cells will likely become a routine part of the treatment of cardiovascular disease in the next few years."
Bolli took cells from a healthy part of the patient and infused them into the patient's heart, causing the regeneration of previously dead heart tissue.
Please note–these are adult stem cells from the patient's own body, there were no embryonic stem cells involved. Since the cells were taken from the patient, there was no danger of rejection.
The article points out:
Other researchers have used adult stem cells to restore vision to patients whose eyes were damaged by chemicals.They have also been used to treat leukemia, lymphoma and other blood diseases, heal broken bones, and create skin grafts.
The article reports:
Because of the promise of Bolli's work, the National Institutes of Health has awarded a $3.4 million grant for more research at the University of Louisville over the next seven years.
Hopefully Dr. Bolli's research will mean longer, healthier lives for many people.

Zero Technologies is the first company to achieve certification of a filtration pitcher under new requirements of Standard 53
NSF Intl. has announced that Zero Technologies, LLC has obtained NSF certification for its pour-through water filtration pitchers. Zero Technologies is the first company to achieve certification of a filtration pitcher for lead reduction under the new requirements of NSF/ANSI Standard 53: Drinking Water Treatment Units -- Health Effects.
As of July 2007, all drinking water filters certified by NSF, including pour-through pitchers, faucet mounts and built-in faucet filters, must meet new test requirements for making claims of lead reduction under NSF/ANSI Standard 53. Previously, the lead reduction test protocol did not require a challenge with a specific percentage of particulate lead in addition to soluble lead. The new test protocol requires that particulate lead must be generated in the challenge water at a specific percentage. Recent studies have indicated that lead contamination of drinking water can occur in either or both particulate and soluble forms. Since both forms of lead have adverse health effects if consumed, it is very important that water treatment products certified for lead reduction are able to treat particulate lead in addition to soluble lead.
"Zero Technologies is honored to be the first company to pass the new lead removal standard set by the NSF Joint Committee on Drinking Water Treatment Units. This will allow us to showcase our product strength and highlight differentiation among the competition," said Raja Rajan, chief operating officer of Zero Technologies, LLC. "NSF certification to the new lead requirements allows consumers to compare water filtration capabilities among the many choices available in the market."
Certification to NSF/ANSI Standard 53 includes ongoing inspections of the manufacturing facility and periodic testing to make sure the product does not leach harmful levels of metals or other contaminants into drinking water and continues to perform as originally certified.
"NSF enjoys working with many proactive manufacturers, such as Zero Technologies, to help them demonstrate their commitment to public health protection. This certification is important because it expands options available to consumers when selecting products to help make their family's drinking water safer," said Rick Andrew, operations manager of NSF's Drinking Water Treatment Units Certification Program.
The requirements were adopted into NSF/ANSI Standard 53 in February 2007 with approval from the NSF Joint Committee on Drinking Water Treatment Units, an independent consensus standards body composed of a balanced representation of stakeholders including regulators, industry representatives and product users. Manufacturers were also notified of the new requirements at that time.

Clinical Trials
Ritonavir and Indinavir in Children Failing Other Anti-HIV Treatment
National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID)
Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD)
Information provided by (Responsible Party)
National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID)
First received: March 10, 2001
Last updated: May 17, 2012
Last Verified: May 2012
History of Changes
Both ritonavir (RTV) and indinavir (IDV) are approved by the FDA to treat HIV, but IDV has not been approved for use in children and the doses for the combination of the two drugs has not been studied in children. The purpose of this study is to find a combination of RTV and IDV that is safe, well tolerated, and produces drug levels in the blood of children that are comparable to effective drug levels in the blood of adults. The effectiveness of the drug combination in decreasing the amount of virus in the body will also be studied. The children enrolled in this study will have high HIV viral loads despite taking anti-HIV drugs.

|Study Type:
|Study Design:
Allocation: Randomized
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: None (Open Label)
Primary Purpose: Treatment
|Official Title:
|A Phase I/II Trial of Ritonavir and Indinavir in Children Failing Other Antiretroviral Therapy
Further study details as provided by National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID):
|Study Completion Date:
|July 2005
Detailed Description:
Combination regimens of RTV and IDV in adults offer the benefit of two potent antiretroviral
agents, convenience of twice-daily dosing, unrestricted timing of meals, and fewer renal
complications. There are limited, largely anecdotal data from children suggesting that
initial virologic response can also be attained in children given IDV with RTV, but there are
not sufficient pharmacokinetic data to define appropriate dose regimens. This study will
evaluate the clinical feasibility of a combination RTV and IDV regimen for children.
Patients will be stratified on the basis of age/Tanner stage and ability to swallow intact capsules. Patients will be randomized to either Balanced Dose or Low Dose RTV treatment arms. Patients in the Balanced Dose Arm will receive RTV and IDV in approximately equal doses. The Low Dose RTV Arm will receive a dosing ratio of RTV:IDV of approximately 1:3. Patients will have scheduled study visits every 4 weeks for 6 months, then every 3 months for approximately 18 months. Study visits will consist of a medical history, physical exam, and blood and urine tests. Patients will have intensive pharmacokinetic analysis at Week 4 (or 2 weeks after a stable dose of study drugs has been reached) and Week 16. Study visits that include pharmacokinetic analysis will last 9 to 13 hours.
At each study visit, patients will be closely assessed for drug toxicity and virologic response. At the end of the study, patients with good virologic response and no evidence of toxicity may choose to enter a 48 week extension phase and continue taking the combination regimen.

Great art and a soft, smooth page that's slick to the touch...reading Optic Nerve is like peeking into someone's diary or flipping through your favorite photo album.New York Daily News
After self-publishing seven mini-comics as a teenager, Optic Nerve became a regular comic book series when Adrian Tomine was only twenty. His work developed steadily over the years, from the rough, sketchy drawings of his early mini-comics to the stark, crisp graphic approach of his D&Q series. Although his work is no longer strictly autobiographical, his contemporary stories are still deeply personal. Tomine creates a new cast of characters for each story, and he has become a master of penetrating their fragile exteriors.
This first D+Q issue features five stories: "Sleepwalk" (11 pages), an account of a young man's attempts to cling to an old, fading relationship; "Echo Avenue" (5 pages), where voyeurism is the pastime of choice as a couple peers into their neighbor's bedroom window; "Long Distance" (2 pages), a brief, powerful story about a woman's cold, distant conversations with her boyfriend; "Drop" (1 page), an account of an unfortunate incident by the author's father; and "Lunch Break" (5 pages), where a solitary elderly woman thinks back to happier times in the 1950's.
First printing: April 1995; second printing: February 1997; third printing: October 2001; fourth printing: October 2005.

VILLAGE OF ARGYLE, Wis. — A small village in Lafayette County will hold a vigil for the three young brothers killed in a house fire.
Members of the community of Argyle plan to gather at the local park Wednesday night in remembrance of 7-year-old Allen, 5-year-old Jeffery and 3-year-old Joseph Wand.
The boys died in a fire at their home Sept. 7. Their mother, Sharon Wand, was critically burned and lost her unborn child. Sharon's husband, Armin Wand and his brother, Jeremy Wand, are charged with setting the house on fire to collect on renter's and life insurance policies.
The family plans to hold a funeral for the boys when their mother can attend.

PHILADELPHIA — While approximately one in five Parkinson's disease patients experience impulse control disorder symptoms, the disease itself does not increase the risk of gambling, shopping, or other impulsivity symptoms, according to research from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. A new study is the first to show in a large sample that people with untreated Parkinson's were no more likely to have an increased impulsivity than people without the disease. Published in the January 8, 2013, print issue of Neurology, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology, this study is the strongest research to date reinforcing the reported association between disease medications and impulse control disorders in Parkinson's.
"When looking at newly diagnosed Parkinson's patients who had yet to be treated with drugs targeting the dopamine system, we saw no difference in impulsivity than what we found in healthy people without the disease," said lead study author Daniel Weintraub, MD, associate professor of Psychiatry and Neurology in the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. "Now knowing that the disease itself is not driving impulsive behaviors, we can follow newly diagnosed patients over time to see if we can predict how exposure to dopamine-related drugs and other factors play a role in impulse control disorders."
Using baseline data from 168 newly-diagnosed, untreated Parkinson's disease patients and 143 healthy control subjects, obtained upon enrollment into the Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative (PPMI), the team also found that there was an increasing severity of depression associated with impulse control disorders among both groups, particularly with the presence of compulsive eating symptoms.
This is the first study to use an impulse control assessment tool developed and validated for use in PD, as well to enroll PD patients and healthy controls concurrently and to have both groups undergo an identical assessment process.
"For those with Parkinson's who screened positive for impulse control disorders at baseline, it will be interesting to follow the patients to see if treatment with dopamine agonists and other therapies will further increase risk over time," said Weintraub, also with the Parkinson's Disease and Mental Illness Research, Education and Clinical Center of the Philadelphia Veterans Affairs Medical Center.
This is the first data to be published from the Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative, known as PPMI, a public-private partnership funded by The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research and funding partners, including Abbott, Biogen Idec, F. Hoffman-La Roche Ltd., GE Healthcare, Genentech, and Pfizer Inc.
In addition to Dr. Weintraub, the study was conducted by Kimberly Papay and Andrew Siderowf, MD, MSCE, of Penn's Parkinson's Disease and Movement Disorders Center. After the study was completed and submitted for publication, Dr. Siderowf left Penn for a position with Avid Radiopharmaceuticals, where he is now Medical Director.

Are we this good or are we still just playing decent teams?
"When Gotham is ashes, you have my permission to die."
Rivers just intercepted and it was run back for a TD. San Diego will lose!
Thats 1-2 for those losers!
My MVP is Allen Rossum. That set the game off to a great start!
"SA, it's more than a FEVER it's an ADDICTION" -BlacknGold Bleeder
damn it, i hate when i two teams i hate play and they both can't lose, i hate the cards cause i love to see coaches that coached under cowher fail, but i hate the ravens........ so it's a lose/lose situation there lol.......... matt lienart sucks dick, they should've drafted cutler lol...
"SA, it's more than a FEVER it's an ADDICTION" -BlacknGold Bleeder
****ing ravens suck dick they lost to the bengals and are letting teams like the jets and cards hang with them
I vote our MVP today being the entire defense. Except for one score late in the 4th they bent but didn't break today. The 49ers were a tough team today but the defense got 2 picks (that first one called back had to be either an interception or a fumble) and were fighting for sacks all day.
2nd is special teams.......Rossum....single best trade made by the Steelers this off-season.
The offense looked okay on the ground but the air attack was fickle. Now that Heath is getting more receptions he needs to fine tune his receiving skills (looking for the ball/getting both feet in bounds). Ben is looking very good, fighting away from sacks and being smart with his gameplay.
Another well run game plan, O-line could have helped protect ben alittle better, but were able to get the holes for willie to do his thing. Bring on the cards

Game 1: Farmingdale State - 12 , Plattsburgh State - 3
Game 2: Farmingdale State - 2, Plattsburgh State - 0
Farmingdale, N.Y. - The Farmingdale State baseball team met non-conference opponent Plattsburgh State this afternoon and picked up two victories to improve to 4-1 overall.
In game one, the Rams scored three unearned runs in the bottom of the third inning to quickly take a 3-0 lead.
In the bottom of the fourth, junior right fielder Michael Marino (Franklin Square, N.Y.) led off with a bunt single and advanced to second on a sacrifice by freshman second baseman Andrew Karkota (Manorville, N.Y.). Freshman left fielder Richard Sullivan (Farmingdale, N.Y.) later put the Rams ahead 4-0 with an RBI single to right.
After the Cardinals cut the deficit to 4-3, Farmingdale State scored eight runs in the sixth inning to lead 12-3 and put the game out of reach.
Junior shortstop Anthony Alvino (Lindenhurst, N.Y.) was 1-for-3 at the plate with 3 RBI and two runs scored, while senior center fielder Edward Bergmann (East Meadow, N.Y.) had two hits a run scored and an RBI for the Rams.
Plattsburgh State (0-4) was led by junior left fielder Nicholas Lupo (Fishkill, N.Y.) who was 3-for-4 with a run scored.
Senior pitcher Michael Dolce (St. James, N.Y.) earned his first win of the season after allowing one earned run in five innings of work.
In the second game, freshman Matt Seelinger (Levittown, N.Y.) threw five no-hit innings with four strikeouts and two walks in his first career win for Farmingdale State.
After allowing no hits through five, the Rams scored two in the bottom of the fifth. Junior second baseman Mike Scarlato (Holbrook, N.Y.) led off with a single up the middle before stealing second. Scarlato was safe at third on Bergmann's fielders choce to put runners on the corners. With two outs, junior third baseman Tom Rydzewski (Franklin Square, N.Y.) tripled to right center to clear the bases for the eventual game-winning runs and the 2-0 win.
Junior reliever Alex Pangourelias (Briarwood, N.Y.) picked up the save in two innings of work, allowing two hits with one strikeout and no walks.
Farmingdale State next will travel to William Paterson for a non-conference game on Tuesday, March 11th at 3:00 p.m.

In 2011 when Nike auctioned-off 1,500 pairs of Nike Air Mag replicas as worn by Marty McFly in Back to the Future Part II, there was one important aspect missing: Those most triumphant power laces.
Well with 2015 and the actual date Marty and the Doc visit (no matter what those internet photoshops tell you) just around the corner, the shoe's designer, Nike's Tinker Hatfield has some big news for fans.
"Are we gonna see power laces in 2015? To that, I say Yes!" said Hatfield at a recent event in New Orleans.
Whether that means there'll be another Air Mag reissue (the first one raised $6m for Parkinson's), or whether the tech will come to a new design isn't clear, but, you guys, "power laces, alright!"
More Blips!

text: Bitcoin Bitcoin is a virtual currency (value-recorded currency). Although it is a virtual currency, it has real value and is similar in nature to gold. It is unique in that there is no issuer, such as a central bank or company. The only source of its value is people's trust in its worth; it is valuable because many people believe that it is valuable. New Bitcoins are issued programmatically. The maximum amount of Bitcoin is pre-determined at around 21 million BTC, and cannot be altered. (Strictly speaking, it can be changed if a majority of miners consent.) The upper limit is set to prevent inflation. Bitcoin cannot be issued arbitrarily, and the rate at which it is issued is pre-programmed. Bitcoin is the word that describes the concept of Bitcoin, its protocol, and the entire Bitcoin transaction network. Bitcoin is also the name of the Bitcoin currency itself. インデックス カテゴリー順 五十音順 Bitcoin Glossary XBT ASIC Address Base58 Bitcoin Bitcoin Core bitWire Block Block Height Blockchain BTC chainFlyer Cold storage Cryptocurrency Crypto assets Deflation Electronic money Escrow 51% attack Hot wallet mBTC (millibitcoin) Mining pool Node Paper wallet Satoshi Satoshi Nakamoto Transaction Value record - Ledger Virtual currency Wallet Glossary of terms related to the Bitcoin setup Anti-counterfeiting BIP Bitcoin Unlimited(BU) Bitcoin XT BitcoinJS Broadcast Byzantine Generals' Problem Change Coinbase (Mining reward) Confirmation CPFP (Child Pays For Parent) dApps Difficulty Digital signature Double spend ECDSA Fork FPGA Halving Hard-Fork Hash Hashrate ICO Issuance amount Lightning Network Miner Mining Multisig (Multi-signature Wallet) Nonce Orphan Block P2P P2SH Private key Proof of Stake (PoS) Proof of Work Public key encryption Public key Replay Attack Segwit SHA-256 Smart contract Soft-Fork SPV Stress test Testnet Transaction malleability UASF(User Activated Soft-Fork) Glossary of terms related to Bitcoin transactions Bitcoin Investment Trust Bitcoin ATM Bitcoin ETF Bitcoin payment Bitcoin price Candlestick chart Chart Cloud mining Crowdfunding Day-trading Debit card Execution FATF Overseas remittance Remittance Spread Stop loss Taxation Transaction fee Volatility Virtual currencies other than Bitcoin Altcoin Bitcoin Cash Ethereum Ethereum classic Lisk Litecoin Monacoin Stablecoin Glossary of terms related to Bitcoin exchange Account Anti-money laundering Bitcoin marketplace Exchange DDoS Identification Mt.

You know how Rockstar Games rolls, right? There's no clue as to when we're going to get another glimpse at Grand Theft Auto V. So, thirsty fans have gone ahead and made their own. The clip is made up of still images that have been released for the game, with little bits of limited animation sprinkled throughout. With overdubbed music and vocals responsible for the jokes, it's a little reminiscent of the openings from Monty Python's Flying Circus. GTA + Monty Python… that's a mash-up someone needs to make happen.

Amile Jefferson Channels His Inner ZoubekPosted by Chris Kehoe on February 4th, 2014
He knew he had it within him all along. The skinny 6'9" "power" forward from Philadelphia had always played with an infectious sense of energy — the quintessential 'hype man' for Duke. But in Amile Jefferson's freshman season, he primarily logged spot duty minutes at a clip of about 13 minutes per game. Stuck behind senior frontcourt leaders Ryan Kelly and Mason Plumlee, Jefferson struggled to get into a groove and find a defined role in Duke's system. Coming into this year, the 2012 McDonald's All-American made it his business to add weight to his frame so he could take advantage of a vacuum of low-post talent in the frontcourt.
Without a true post presence on the floor but all his other pieces aligning, Mike Krzyzewski needed either Jefferson, Marshall Plumlee or senior Josh Hairston to anchor the post while flanked by perimeter-oriented forwards Rodney Hood and Jabari Parker. Given that the Parker/Hood tandem is a highly efficient scoring duo, the center role in Duke's scheme this year primarily requires competent rebounding, post defense, and communication while anchoring the back line of the defense. While Jefferson will never be the kind of defensive shot-blocking presence as Kansas' Joel Embiid or Arizona State's Jordan Bachynski, he can arguably check the boxes that Duke desires in a big man.


text: We're less than 12 hours away from the start of the NFL season, so it's time to finish the impassioned season previews from various writers, bloggers, diehard fans, cooks, TV personalities, and numerous other walks of life whom consider football the only sport worth watching. Clearly, these previews will be running until, oh, the first round of the wild card playoffs based on how quickly they've been coming in. So, for the next few days, expect a lot of these. Today: The New York Giants. Your author is Peter Schrager. Peter Schrager is an NFL columnist for Fox Sports.com and gets weepy about both the Giants and Chris Russo.Before sitting down to write this, I watched the Giants Super Bowl DVD in its entirety. It's probably the 50th time I've done that in the past month. Lame way to spend a summer? Perhaps. But it's my personal Rocky IV training montage. Instead of going to the gym or trying to talk to females at a local watering hole, I'll watch the Giants DVD alone in my apartment, jump around in triumph, and call it a night. I've yet to find an evening where I've regretted that decision. Who needs civilization and things like sex and companionship when you have Michael Strahan pacing up and down the sidelines, assuring his defensive teammates in the final minutes of Super Bowl XLII, "We're going to win this game 17-14." Fuck. I get chills just thinking about it. It's the final scene in "Rudy", "Gladiator", and "Dirty Dancing" all in one. For a Giants fan, it's pure nirvana. That DVD's the gift that keeps giving. Sam Madison wandering around London like a maniac, Kawika stuffing Ladell Betts on 4th and goal in Washington during Week 3, Corey Webster's game-sealing interceptions in Buffalo and Green Bay—you can't watch it without feeling like you do at the end of the "One Shining Moment" montage each April. Good feelings all over. It's an Iced Tea on the hottest summer day. It's a good jukebox in a great college bar. It's that new car smell. In truth, the past six months have pretty much been pure bliss for Giants nation. If this is what a honeymoon is like, I want to get married 100 times. The golden glow of January and February's improbable run towards the Lombardi Trophy still hasn't worn off. Slap us with $10,000 to $20,000 PSL seat licenses? Shucks, it's okay. Lose Super Bowl heroes Kawika Mitchell and Gibril Wilson via free agency? Golly gee, we'll just have to get through it, right? See Strahan retire and Shockey get traded in a matter of days? Hey, these kind of things happen! Lose Osi to a devastating season-ending injury in the damn preseason? Gulp. It's okay—everything happens for a reason! Such optimism is certainly not the norm for Giants fans. With Dave Brown, Danny Kanell, and Kent Graham serving as the Giants starting quarterbacks during my high school years, positivity towards this franchise is pretty much a foreign entity to me. I was raised on simultaneously rooting and being disgusted in this football team. The same goes for my father's era of Giants fans. And his father's too. Sounds fun, right? Check out a Giants game sometime. You'll be hard-pressed finding a section not littered with bitter 20-year-old, 50-year-old, and 80-year-old fans. I was in Giants Stadium when an unknown Jersey kid named Ricky Proehl caught three touchdown passes in a horrid loss to the lowly Cardinals in the early 90's. I was there for the onside kick Wildcard loss to Cunningham and the Vikings in '97. I sat with shame in a fraternity house full of brand new Ravens fans (betting on Baltimore and the -7 line, of course) as Trent Dilfer wiped the floor with John Fox's defense. I can tell you all about the window my fist went through after Trey Junkin muffed the snap in San Francisco in 2002 or the long walk around the block I took after a porous Giants defense made Nick Goings look like Barry Sanders in an '05 Wildcard loss to Carolina. Vai Sikahema's kick returns, Emmitt Smith's one armed heroics, getting blown out 50-21 in East Rutherford by Stephen Davis and the 'Skins in '99. These wounds all are there somewhere on the sleeve of my Dave Meggett jersey, just as Pisarcik's fumble and the dark 60's and 70's are embedded within my father's generation of Giants fans. Though there's been two—and now three—Super Bowl victories, it's the low moments and the endless string of disappointments that really bring Giants nation together. Of course, all those painful moments are exactly what made Tyree's catch, Tuck's dominance of that overrated Patriots offensive line, and each and every viewing of the Super Bowl DVD all the more sweeter. This summer, Eli Manning—a guy who I am pretty sure wears pajamas with the footsies on them to bed each night—got married to a gorgeous Southern Belle, was treated like an A-lister at the ESPY's in Hollywood, and featured in Men's Vogue. Yes, Eli Manning was in Men's Vogue. Seriously. Of course, I didn't flinch at any of this. It's the Honeymoon period. Anything's possible and none of it can upset or faze me. That is, of course, until we come out looking like shit in the first quarter of tonight's game versus the Redskins. That's when the Honeymoon comes to an end. That's when it's okay to sour on the Giants again. And I'll be honest—I can't wait.

Our team can offer expert advice on whether or no you should think about a trust deed. Please complete our contact form for more information.
There are various solutions for debts, but trust deeds in UK are becoming more popular. Please complete our contact form for more details.
If you are looking for a trust deed calculator, our team can help you. Please speak with us now for more details on how to calculate whether you should get a trust deed or not.
Getting help with your debts if they are starting to get out of control is one of the most sensible things you can do. It may seem like there is no option but to keep on struggling but, we're here to tell you that's not the case.
No matter how bad your circumstances are we are confident that we can find a debt management solution that will best suit you. One of these options is the trust deed in Achddu SA16 0 which has helped countless people in Scotland to rearrange their debts into something much more manageable.
If this sounds appealing, then you might want to know what is a trust-deed in the UK? A trust-deed is only available to residents of Scotland. The equivalent for the rest of the UK is called an Individual Voluntary Arrangement, or IVA https://www.finance-near-me.co.uk/debt/iva/carmarthenshire/achddu/.
An IVA shares many of the same values as the trust-deed option in Scotland, but there are a few subtle differences;
Trust Deed
A Trust Deed in Scotland lets you consolidate your debts into one monthly payment. There are some conditions that have to be met before applying;
If you can meet these three requirements then you can apply via an Insolvency Practitioner.
A Protected Trust Deed is slightly different to a regular one. With a Protected Trust-Deed you entrust your assets to a third party who will then sell them at auction on your behalf to pay towards your debts.
Whether you need this because of a credit card debts https://www.finance-near-me.co.uk/credit-card/carmarthenshire/achddu/ or a personal loan, we can help.
In order to protect a Trust-Deed it must be worth at least £5,000. The idea behind it is to protect you from further action from your creditors.
Now you know the basics, let's see Trust Deeds explained a little further. In order to apply for a Trust-Deed you must enlist the help of an Insolvency Practitioner to represent you. Without one, you cannot apply for a Trust-Deed.
The job of the Insolvency Practitioner is to go through your household budget and see how much you can realistically afford to pay your creditors once all of your outgoings for the month have been paid.
Once you agree on a figure, the Insolvency Practitioner will apply to your creditors for the Trust-Deed. Once it has been confirmed, you will then pay your Insolvency Practitioner one payment a month. They will take a monthly fee from your payment and then distribute the rest to your various creditors on your behalf.
You might be wondering, should I apply for a Trust-Deed? The answer to that needs to be worked out with a debt management specialist or an Insolvency Practitioner.
An Insolvency Practitioner will go through your household budget with you and recommend whether they think Trust Deeds in Achddu SA16 0 are appropriate for your circumstances. If they don't then will offer another possible solution instead.
There are positives and negatives attached to entering into this deed that you need to fully aware of before making a decision. A few of these can be found below.
Let's go through the various advantages first:
Now, for the disadvantages:
A local expert can offer help and assistance when calculating your incomings and outgoings. If you are interested in speaking with one of our nearby team members closest to you in Achddu SA16 0 or in surrounding areas, please get in touch now.
Using a Trust-Deed calculator will help you to work out your income to outgoings ratio. This will be incredibly useful when trying to determine how much you can realistically afford to offer your creditors. For an incredibly accurate calculator, please complete our contact form and we can help you.
An alternative would be to put yourself forward for the debt payoff scheme https://www.finance-near-me.co.uk/debt-payoff-scheme/carmarthenshire/achddu/ however this is similar to the lottery and we would not advise this as an only option.
How does it work? It works by offering your creditors a reduced payment compared to what you would normally pay them, and they accept that they will make a considerable loss on what they borrowed you.
Why would they do this? The vast majority of creditors would rather get some of their investment back than nothing at all. If you went down the route of applying for sequestration then there is a good chance they would get no return at all. This is why they are amiable with Trust Deeds.
Please, contact us if we can help to set up a Trust Deed in Achddu SA16 0 for you. Likewise, if you have any questions about the process at all, contact us and we'll be glad to help.

I work for a major publicly traded company and we need some external black box pen testing done on a Win32 executable. This exe is used in a large client server infrastructure and is a central piece of our core business. It handles monetary transactions so it is vital that it is secure. The scope of work we would want audited are:
- Protocol reversal of client / server communication.
- General binary analysis for potential vulnerabilities.
- Analysis of possibilities for code injection.
- Detection of man in the middle vulnerabilities.
I am estimating that project like this would take a team of two 4-12 weeks depending on quality. We don't want to bill hourly and are trying to gauge what prices are reasonable per man month?
Generally, for this kind of work what are the ranges for rates and time periods that I should expect to see?

David Stern joined the Utah Jazz broadcast team during last night's Jazz-Grizzlies game to talk about the state of the NBA or something else equally boring. The interview wasn't a complete waste of time, though, because it gave Stern the opportunity to test his announcing chops and call some of the game action.
Stern's performance left quite a bit to be desired—he sounded like a bored aristocrat describing the movements of his gardeners. Maybe he just needs a catch phrase? Too bad a condescending smirk can't be made audible.

Here are a few of the items I've picked up over the last couple of weeks that have made their way into my closet.
- This dusty rose cashmere sweater is probably the most luxurious piece I've ever found. It's so super soft and lined in silky lace. The front clasp is a beautiful rhinestone pin and it has little matching rhinestones on the sleeve cuffs. I'm still torn over the fur collar. I would never, ever buy new fur and abhor the fur industry as a whole but it always seems a shame to let vintage pieces go to waste. The collar is actually removable so if I can't deal with the fur, I can always just remove it and still have an amazing cashmere sweater.
- Next is this fitted tweed skirt. I can't even begin to tell you how heavy this skirt is. I had a hard time even keeping it clasped into the hanger to take the photo. It's going to be perfect once the weather really gets cold.
- I'm loving capes at the moment and this one is no exception. It's a nice, delicate alternative to the heavier ones I've been finding.
- My love of hats is only growing stronger by the day. This one is black velvet with a tiny little bow on the side and fine netting that can be pinned up with my hair.
- As soon as I saw this strange little headband I was head over heels. It's black velvet with netting that hangs over my eyes and a horse hair decoration on the side.
- Amongst all of these pretty, feminine finds is a pair of perfectly beat up, broken in Doc Martens. These take me back to high school (yes, I'm that old!). I'm not sure if I'll be able to pull these off with dresses but I've already been enjoying wearing them with my skinny jeans.

Annie Zaidi on the session about Indian Poetic Forms:
The evening began with me making emergency calls to Ashwini — had forgotten to organize envelopes — and Danish — would he please pick up blank paper and extra pens — before landing up a good 45 minutes early at the Attic, where the organisers of the miniature paintings sat at a little table, looked at me expectantly and offered me a chair.
I looked at the paintings, thought about how beautiful the photos would look with these as the backdrop, fretted about what we'd do if enough people didn't land up or too many did, and paced about anxiously while the Attic staff laid out the 'farsh' and the chairs.
As people began to stroll in, I worried about whether to put the shoes inside or outside and whether there was a chance of them being stolen outside. Then I went about collecting money from the participants — and one would-be participant who could not attend because of a last-minute emergency, but showed up anyway to pay up since he had confirmed attendance (thank you, gentle person).
When Professor Shivaprakash called, unable to find his way from Regal, Monica kindly went down to fetch him. He arrived with another scholar from JNU and ten minutes later, we started the workshop.
While the good professor said several things about poetry in general, and more specifically about the historical contexts of forms and short forms like the haiku, I did not manage to take down everything.
However, I do remember that he had compared poetry to firecrackers.
Just like there are two kinds of crackers — the single dazzle-burst kind, like the anaar for instance, and the multiple boom-boom-boom kind, like the larhi — similarly, there are two kinds of poetry. The latter kind gradually reveals itself, one idea leading to the next, and culminating in one final burst that may be a big, definitive finale or a quiet fizzle. The other kind says all it has to in a very short space of time with a very limited use of words. The haiku for instance. Or a doha, a tanka or an abhang. Or the vachana.
He also said that these shorter forms could be equated with a Zen-like instantaneous illumination.
Prof Shivaprakash had chosen to concentrate on vachanas, a form of Kannada poetry from the medieval ages, and also the subject of a forthcoming book he is editing for Penguin India.
Literally, a vachana means 'speech.' Alternately, it also means 'promise.' A vachana he said originates from triplets in Kannada that was often sung by women, and often contained rural and/or domestic themes.
In the medieval era, vachanas were popularized by speaker-poets many of whom came from the artisan classes and as the form evolved, their poetry became a tool of critique, against both the existing modes of poetry and transmission of knowledge.
Poetry is comprised of meaning and sound, he said. And what these new speaker-poets did was to challenge the content of Sanskrit poetry while simultaneously changing the way it sounded. They were opposed to the use of 'abhida' or a referential language. A referential language would depend on figures of speech, such as similes. They felt that a simile is a substitute, and therefore nor the real thing. Only real experience ought to be the subject of poetry, according to the vachana poets and therefore, they often spoke of their own lives, their work and their immediate environment.
Professor Shivaprakash also discussed the two foundations of meter in poetry. One depends on the contrast between stressed and unstressed syllables, which is how it is in older English poetry. The other kind depends on the equivalence of syllables, that is, vocalic length, such as it is in a ghazal. However, meter, he said, is only one manifestation of rhythm in a poem. There is also the notion of a sprung rhythm, which is what vachanas use. Such as 'we were the first that ever burst into the silent sea.'
In the Kannada vachanas, there are few end rhymes, but there is often an initial rhyme. The first or second sounds of each line may rhyme. This brought a different kind of symmetry to the language. One of the best-known, and Professor Shivaprakash's favourite, vachana poet is Akkamahadevi. He had circulated copies of some of her work as samples that were given away to participants.
The session was opened up to questions later and several participants wanted to ask the professor tough questions. On the question of what exactly the form was like, he said that the thing about this form was that it followed no rules. It is rooted in the breaking of form, and therefore, it is difficult to ascribe rules to it. He was not sure that new poets will succeed in writing a vachana, or how to advise them to write it, but added that it is possible to write 'a vachana-like poem'.
Towards the end of that discussion, I observed that forms seem to grow from one to the other, with new twists and variations leading to new names for the form. Such as the qasida giving birth to the masnavi, the marsiya and the ghazal and how the ghazal itself seems anxious to grow in different directions but seems not to be able to find a new name for the newer experiments.
That led to some talk of other Indian poetic forms such as the anthadi and the keh-mukarni (both of which we have seen many examples of in Caferati's forum), examples of which were read out and met with much delight.
The participants seemed more enthused by the idea of the naughtier, saucier keh-mukarni so that form was chosen for an exercise. Several people came up with instant verses which were read out to much merriment and blushing. (Note to participants: do post your efforts in this thread, if you don't mind.)
Though I had not read mine out, I had written this one:
There's such black in his eyes
Black his tongue, black his lies
Black as coal, black as a rai
Your beloved? No, the kadhai.
This was followed by a short break for snacks — dhokla, samosa, gulab-jamuns, tea — and we went on to the next session on editing, led by Anita Roy and Urvashi Butalia.
Anita Roy, on the Editing for Non-Editors session that she and Urvashi Butalia conducted. Urvashi and Anita are from Zubaan.
The workshop kicked off with the participants all coming up with their own definitions of what an editor should be/should do. This ranged from correcting grammar to taking the author out for a drink (specifically: after their MS has been rejected). The nice list of editorial roles defined by Gary Kamiya — "Editors are craftsmen, ghosts, psychiatrists, bullies, sparring partners, experts, enablers, ignoramuses, translators, writers, goalies, friends, foremen, wimps, ditch diggers, mind readers, coaches, bomb throwers, muses and spittoons — sometimes all while working on the same piece" — was added to by the group: my favourite being "butcher." Urvashi went on to elaborate on all the different kinds of editors there are out there — commissioning eds, desk eds, copy eds — and what to expect from each.
I then, perhaps fancifully, compared an editor's work to that of a gem-cutter: polishing, honing, cutting, until the light passes through as sparklingly and as clearly as possible. Some diamonds are rougher than others, so need more work. Some will never be more than a hunk of coal, and best consigned to the fire early on.
Then, having hedged around a bit and said how there aren't any real guidelines about how to approach a commissioning editor with your work, proceeded to contradict myself totally by laying down THE LAW in the form of 10 Commandments (see below).
Getting down to brass tacks, we all had a bash at re-punctuating a piece of de-punctuated text: specifically, an extract of Don Marquis's free verse work, Archy and Mehitabel. Had a lot of fun figuring out where to put quote marks and arguing about commas.
Then we sharpened our pencils and the cutting blades of our editorial minds by tackling an extract of an article that appeared in "Crime and Detective", whose idiosyncratic usage of the language reduced many participants to tears — of laughter. But which, usefully, kicked off a discussion about how much authorial quirkiness (and specifically Indian-English intonation, usage and vocab) one should or could allow.
One of the nicest comments afterwards was a backhander: "When they said there'd be editors coming to talk to us about editing, I thought: Oh my god, how dull can it get? But actually, I really enjoyed that."
Well, good. So did we.
I think Shakti would have too.
Anita's Ten Commandments:
Submitting your MS to a publisher
1. Thou shalt first find out about the publisher.
If you've written a short story for children, there's no use sending it to Granta. If you've written a book review, send it to a journal that actually carries reviews. If you've written a book about growing dahlias, don't send it to a publisher of feminist fiction. Etc. etc. Go to a bookshop or your bookshelves and see who's published the kind of book that you think yours would sit well next to. Do your research first, and find out which place is going to suit your work best, which ground is likely to be the most fertile for your kind of seed to grow.
2. Thou shalt abide by the submissions process.
Usually on their website the magazine, journal or publisher will have something called "Guidelines for submissions". Do stick by these if you possibly can.. They are there for a reason. If they state up front that they only accept proposals through an agent, don't expect them to make an exception for you. If they say: don't send it by email; then don't.
3. Thou shalt not tell the publisher why they should publish you.
It's an editor's job to figure out whether this MS is suitable for their list, whether it will sell, and why: not yours! Editors are invariably turned off by authors going for the hard-sell: eg "I am sending you the gist of my most valuable work. I am sure it will excite you and you would react positively." Also be realistic about your target readership — "It will appeal to young ones and senior citizens" cutteth zero ice.
4. In your covering letter, never resort to LARGE FONTS, underlining, exclamation marks, bold, or coloured type.
This smacks of a kind of lapel-tugging desperation on your part — not good — and also the suspicion that you think the editor has the deductive powers of a three year old, who needs Bright colours and Loud sounds to hold his/her attention. Is this really who you want to be editing your precious prose?
5. Thou shalt make sure thy covering letter is not full of typos!
Scan and rescan and print out on paper and then get someone else to read through your covering letter before you send it off. There is nothing more off-putting than having an author make spelling and grammatical mistakes in his/her initial approach – does not encourage an editor to read on.
6. Thou shalt judiciously exploit personal contacts.
"X suggested I contact you." "We met at Y launch". "I heard you speak at Z conference" – anything that helps the editor feel that there is some kind of personal connect will help your MS stand out from the crowd.
7. Chose your fonts with care.
Go for safe fonts: Courier, Times, Garamond, Times New Roman. Don't feel that you need to have 'designed' your page before sending them in. In fact, that may backfire: if you've got illustrations that the editor hates or have laid out a page in a way that just doesn't go with their style, it makes it that much harder for the editor to see past the flummery to the "meat" i.e. your words!
8. Attach attachments.
Double check when you say you're attaching an attachment that you actually do! And make sure it's in as bog-standard a format as you can think of: MS Word almost always. 1.5 or double-line spaced.
9. Tell them who you are.
Always helpful to have a bit of biodata about the author — where you're based, age, profession, what else you've written or done. But keep it relevant, and keep it short.
10. Thou shalt take 'No' for an answer
If you've been rejected by one publisher, go kick the door, or the dog, put on some loud rock, pour yourself a stiff whisky, cry, wail or otherwise get it out of your system. Then find someone else to reject you again. Do NOT argue with a 'reject' letter. Everyone knows they are full of platitudes like "not quite right for our list at the present time" — do not write back and say, oh, that's ok I can wait, what about next week/month/year?
There's no reason why you can approach the same person/publisher with another story another poem another time, but asking for a re-trial is a big no-no.
And finally, comments from some of the participants.
Monica Mody:
Thank you, you guys, for organizing this fabulous workshop! I enjoyed Prof Shivaprakash's session even though I wish there were more interactive, poet-friendly elements in it. And sorry I couldn't stay for the entire editing session.
Nupur Maskara:
Yes, it was fun to attend. Thank you for organising it, it was a great way to remember your friend and what she stands for. I have put up the kehmukarni I wrote at the workshop on my blog.
The pics are great!
looking forward to the next session.
Gopika Nath:
I really enjoyed the workshop. Professor Shivaprakash was really very interesting and enlighteneing and opened new windows of interest. In fact I have recently picked up a book by Ramanujan on Vacanas! Urvashi and Anita were useful in terms of the exercisesthey made us do. I would have skipped some of the points Anita made re what one should or shouldn't do, which mostly called upon good ole common sense. Some of the comments/suggestions presented a& very personal, even prejudiced view, rather than one that could be seen as universally appplicable advice. There were times when I felt that for every negative idea she presented, I could already hear someone I had read/heard etc, contradict this, in my head. But that was really a very minor point.
A workshop in memory of someone who has contributed significantly to the field of writing and publishing is a great idea. However, it would be appropriate to list these contributions during the introduction. I, did not know Shakti, nor her work and really would have liked to know more than what the young girl talked of. I could not make much sense of her "being a huge person" and that ilk.
Thank you for all your efforts towards organzing this and hope that we shall have more in the future.
Venita Coelho:
I thoroughly enjoyed the workshop. Thanks to you guys for putting it together.
Just one suggestion. You might want to start earlier next time. It's not very fair to people of the caliber of Urvashi and Anita to have people leave mid workshop. Perhaps an all day affair next time with a break for lunch?
Preeta Priyamvada:
It was great to be at the workshop. I did find it useful, but I had to leave early and could not sit through the entire second session - the one i was more interested in. The invite mentioned the editorial workshop would be the first one and I had planned accordingly. Anyway, I do look forward to more of such workshops. Can we have one on hindi literature too - giving an overview - history + brief information about the different genres?
Michael Creighton:
Yes, it was a good afternoon. And I did think Anita's ten commandments were helpful. Thou shalt drop names! Why not?
For what it's worth, here's my keh-mukarni, written that day.
I lick wet, salty, spicy skin;
I bite, I suck, I sigh, then grin.
Who gives so gives so good, I wanna hollah?
My wife? No, friend, the Bhutta wallah!
If you were at the workshop, please feel free to add your impressions and/or feedback as comments. Those of you who attempted keh-mukarnis, please post them in the comments, or email me.
P.S. There are photographs taken at the workshop posted in a Facebook album.

Due to the outbreak of COVID 19, we are closing registration for the time being, but enabling a free of charge Waitlist option. Once we know if we will be hosting our event, postponing it or cancelling it we will update things accordingly. This change went into effect 3/25/20. Registrations before that are still active and will be handled directly once we know how we are proceeding with our event.
This year we will have shirts available (optional), but not included in the registration price. This is by design. We don't want to force shirts on people, and we want to keep the price of this event low, so shirts are purchase if you want them, don't if ya don't. That said, we are offering a pretty sweet deal to those that DO want them. Shirts only cost $22. Yup, only $22. True story. During the registration process, you can order a t-shirt with our amazing, unique logo. We will NOT be able to accommodate many orders day of or at packet pick up. Last year we were asked by quite a few people if we had extras for sale, but we ran out of popular/common sizes. There are no t-shirt orders after JUNE 1st, however if we have any extras they will be for sale at packet pick up. We will be closing t-shirt sales at the end of May, to insure we get them ordered and printed in time. Therefore, if you want one, don't delay registering and purchasing one. We mean it.
Notice: No refunds, transfers or rainchecks. *There is no waiting list. All proceeds go to the Ashland Woodlands and Trails Association. When the event fills, registration will be closed. Join us Saturday June 20th at 7:30 am for the 43rd Annual Mt. Ashland Hillclimb Run. This 13.3 mile event begins in downtown Ashland's beautiful Lithia Park (el 1900') and climbs on tree-canopied dirt roads and trails to finish on the Mt. Ashland summit (7533'), for a total of over 5,600' of climbing--that's over a vertical mile! The Mt Ashland Hill Climb Run is among the races with most elevation gain of any continuous hill climb in the continental United States. The following cut-off times will be enforced on race day: 10:15 am to Four Corners (~7 miles), 11:30am to Bull Gap (~11.3 miles) and 12:15am to the Lodge (~13 miles)Everyone starts at 7:30am. Start is on Winburn Way in front of Sesame Asian Kitchen right at Lithia Park. There are no early starts. Race packet pickup is the day before, between 3pm and 6pm, at Rogue Valley Runners, 161 E. Main St, downtown Ashland or at least 20-minutes before race start. Participants are responsible for getting themselves back to Ashland. We will be offering bus rides, for free, however you must sign up for this service in advance. Entry fee is $30 for until April 1st, when it goes up to $37, and goes up to $45 on June 1st. Therefore, you should register early. Packet Pick Up will be at Rogue Valley Runners, from 3 pm to 6 pm on June 7th. We will also have LIMITED packet pick up from 6:30 to 7:15 am on race morning at the starting line. ALL RUNNERS MUST CHECK IN the morning of the race, regardless of if you picked up your packet the day before or not.
THIS IS A SERIOUSLY CHALLENGING EVENT. Please understand the difficulty of this event before you enter it. It is longer than a half-marathon, and has over 5,600 feet of elevation gain. It could be hot. It could be cold. Or both. Seriously. Much of the course is in remote forest land. Stopping and turning around is NOT a good option and strongly discouraged. Should you opt to drop out, you MUST report it to an Aid Station captain, lest we miss you and be forced to start a search & rescue (for which you may be liable for the cost). Stopping at an aid station and expecting a ride out is also NOT a good option (you may have to wait a very long time and there may be limited room, if any exists at all). Aid stations are located on bumpy dirt roads, so your ride out is not going to be a comfortable one. Your crew will likely not be able to get to most aid stations easily, and cell reception is minimal on a good day. Plan on running or walking to at least the lodge aid station in the time allotted. Some of the best runners literally collapse at the finish line. We don't want to discourage you; we want to encourage you - to be prepared. Please check our website or facebook page for more information. If you are unsure, email me your questions or concerns PRIOR to registering. Again, no refunds, transfers or roll over to next year will be allowed.

In just a few short days, it will be time for SQL Saturday #98 in Iowa City. If you've got some free time this coming Saturday and are within driving distance– take the time now to register and come get some free training.
While you are there, think about stepping into one of the sessions that I'll be presenting. These should be pretty good and we'll all have a good time.
Discovering the Plan Cache
Execution plans are stored after execution in the plan cache. This metadata about how queries are executed can provide insight into how your SQL Server environment is functioning. By using XQuery to browse and search the plan cache you can find potential performance issues and opportunities to tune your queries. This information can be used to help reduce issues related to parallelism, shift queries from using scans to using seek operations, or discover exactly which queries are using what indexes. All of this and more is readily available through the plan cache. In this session we will explore the plan cache and start you on the road to discovery.
Getting To Know Your Indexes
Without proper indexing SQL Server can be hard pressed to create efficient and performant execution plans. Dynamic Management Views (DMV) and system views provide a slew of information about indexes that can be used to analyze indexes within SQL Server. In this session we'll go under the hood of SQL Server to look at DMVs and system views to know what indexes you have, should have, and how they feel about the way applications are treating them.
XQuery Basics for the DBA
For the past few years, XML has been making its way more and more into our SQL Server instances. For a moment let's forget that developers often find the need to store XML data in their databases. Outside of those databases, XML has already invaded our SQL Servers. It's made its way into execution plans with the SHOWPLAN XML. It's telling us about deadlock through deadlock graphs. It's also presented to us through service broke, event notifications, and extended events. XML is there and we need to learn how to query it. In this session, we'll explore some of the basic methods for querying XML through XQuery. By the end of the session you'll be equipped with the tools and understanding needed to ease yourself into XQuery.

|Publication Date
|Book Description
|The Great War has ended at last. No longer must archaeologist Amelia Peabody and her husband, Emerson, the distinguished Egyptologist, fear for the life of their daring son, Ramses, now free from his dangerous wartime obligations to British Intelligence. But in the aftermath of conflict, evil still casts a cold shadow over violence-scarred Egypt. The theft of valuable antiquities from the home of a friend causes great concern in the Emerson household. Ramses's strange encounter with a woman costumed in the veil and gold crown of the goddess Hathor only deepens the mystery. And the brutal death of the suspected thief washes the unsettling affair in blood--setting Amelia on a terrifying collision course with an adversary more fiendish and formidable than any she has ever encountered.
