Committer Resources
This article lists useful tips and articles for developers interested in working with/at the Gyrex code base.
Policies & Guidelines
The Eclipse Gyrex Project follows the Eclipse Project API guidelines. Please look at API Central and read the resources carefully. In case of any questions please don't hesitate to ask on firstname.lastname@example.com mailing list.
Ramp Down Plan
Typically the last week of a Milestone is for testing, and fixing only regressions and P1 or blocking defects. For milestones, the component lead (or delegate) is enough to review and approve a bug.
For any M6 build, we plan to be API complete, so there will not be any more breaking API changes or unsolicited API change requests accepted.
After RC1 is produced, the time for general functional improvements is long past. The following describes the types of bugs that would be appropriate:
- A regression
- A P1 or P2 bug, one that is blocking or critical, and some cases of major severities.
- Documentation and PII files are exceptions to the normal PMC required review, since there is little chance of that breaking anything, though it is still expected to be complete by M6, and remaining work to be only documentation fixes (that is, no refactoring of plugins, build changes, etc, without PMC review and approval).
- In addition to a bug meeting the above priority/severity conditions, there should be a simple, safe, well understood fix that is well isolated from effecting other components, that doesn't affect API or adopters, that has been well reviewed and well tested.
- As each Release Candidate passes, the criteria for weighing the benefit-to-risk ratio criteria gets higher and higher, and as such requires a larger number of project members to review.
- After RC1: Another committer from the project must review and vote + using Bugzilla (see below).
- After RC2: Another committer from the project and a project lead must review and vote +1 after reviewing the bug for appropriateness and risk.
Bugzilla Usage for RC Fixes
Committers can signify their approval for submitting fixes as required after RC1 by simply indicating +1 in a comment.
Bugzilla has a flag feature that is to be used for obtaining PMC approval. Enter the email address of the PMC member you are requesting approval from and submit. The PMC member is notified via email and will change the flag from '?' to '+' or '-' as appropriate.
Backporting fixes for service releases
- Bugfixes should be backported to the maintenance branch only if they match the criteria above.
- A review is required if bug fixes should be backported.
- A patch must be attached to every bug which is backported.
- If a bug has been backported for a service release, a tag of the form "srX_Y_Z" must be added to the status whiteboard field in bugzilla, where X_Y_Z is the service release number without dots (e.g. "sr0_10_1" for Gyrex 0.10.1).
- To request backporting for a service release, a tag of the form "srX_Y_Z?" can be used.

Workspace Setup
Here's how to set up your workspace for developing Gyrex.
Setup Eclipse
Download and install any Eclipse distribution suitable for developing Eclipse plug-ins. We recommend trying the latest Eclipse milestone for access to the latest features in JDT and PDE.
Required Plug-ins
- Eclipse Plug-in Development Environment
- Eclipse CVS Client
- Eclipse Git Client
Required JDK
- Download and install your preferred Java 6 JDK
- Window -> Preferences -> Java -> Installed JREs -> Add... -> Standard VM -> Next
- Set JRE home to the Java 6 JDK folder -> Finish
- Activate check-box to set Java 6 JDK as the default JDK in Eclipse
Import Projects
Please use the "Import Existing Projects" wizard to import all Gyrex projects from any cloned Git repository. We also provide a collection of Working Sets for your convenience. Working Sets can be imported using the AnyEdit Tools plug-in available via Eclipse Marketplace. You can find the Working Sets file in the RelEng project (
Setup Target Platform
We maintain a shared target platform. It's located in the "org.eclipse.gyrex.releng" project in the
target folder.
- Locate
- Open file
gyrex-dev.targetin Target Definition editor
- Wait till the target platform is resolved
- Click on link "Set as Target Platform" (located in the upper right corner of the Target Definition editor)
Import Code Settings
Optimize Project Browsing
- Switch to the Java perspective
- Open the Package Explorer view menu (little triangle icon in the upper right corner) and select "Top Level Elements -> Working Sets"
- Select all working sets ("Select All")
- We recommend sorting the working sets (check "Sort working sets")
- We also recommend hierarchical package browsing (open the Package Explorer view menu and this time select "Package Presentation -> Hierarchical")
Gyrex builds are produced on the Eclipse.org infrastructure. It's also possible to build locally. We use Maven and Tycho as our build technology which is also the standard build technology recommended by CBI.
Really Quick HowTo
# create temp directory mkdir -p /tmp/gyrex cd /tmp/gyrex # clone source into local directory git clone git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/gyrex/gyrex-server.git . # run Maven mvn clean verify -f releng/aggregator/pom.xml
The build is modular with build-order dependencies between the modules. We do not use a single "aggregator" project that aggregates the various Git repositories. But the build process expects that repositories are cloned into the same parent directory in order to allow relative path reference in build scripts/descriptor files.
Oracle Java 7 or higher
- Oracle Java 7 JDK installed
Note: Open JDK might work too but hasn't been tested yet. Feedback is welcome!
- Environment variable JAVA_HOME set to the JDK directory
- Please ensure that the java executable is available in the PATH!
Maven 3
- Download from http://maven.apache.org/download.html or use your Linux distribution provided version (whether it works depends on the distribution).
Note: At the time of writing, Maven 3.0.4 has been used and tested.
- Please ensure that the mvn executable is available in the PATH!
- Please ensure that a recent version of the git executable is on the PATH!
- Depending on your operating system the setup might vary. A good setup guide is available at Set Up Git (GitHub).
Building on Windows
In general, the build should also work on Windows. However, please be aware that there might be some limitations which make it a difficult to produce good results. For example, the path length is limited. Thus, the code tree should not be cloned into an exciting deep hierarchy of folders.
Additionally, builds on Windows can't produce the correct permissions in produced archives on Linux. Therefore, good quality builds for multiple platforms should not be produced from a Windows system.
Build Environment Setup
The following instructions are required to prepare your build environment. Unless otherwise stated, they apply to Linux, Mac OS X, and Windows platforms.
Maven Settings
To avoid getting hit by bug 365727 and to make sure your local environment configuration does not interfere with CBI build, make sure build user account does not have a Maven settings.xml
your_user@desktop:~$ ls -l ~/.m2/settings.xml ls: cannot access /home/your_user/.m2/settings.xml: No such file or directory
On Windows XP this is located in:
C:\Documents and Settings\your_user\.m2\settings.xml File should not exist, if it does delete it.
On Windows 7 this is located in:
C:\Users\your_user\.m2\settings.xml File should not exist, if it does delete it.
Maven Memory Consumption
It may be necessary to grant Maven more memory. In this case, 2GB of RAM should be enough.
export MAVEN_OPTS=-Xmx2048m
If you're using Windows:
SET MAVEN_OPTS=-Xmx2048m
Cloning Gyrex Source Tree
All Gyrex Git repositories must be cloned into the same parent directory.
git clone git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/gyrex/gyrex-server.git
Running The Build
From the aggregator directory (directory
'releng/aggregator'), run:
mvn clean verify
Multiple Streams
If you build multiple streams on the same system, you'll want to add
'-Dmaven.repo.local=/some/directory/somewhere' to the end of each
'mvn' command to avoid collisions (using a different local repo for each stream). Most casual developers won't be affected.
Alternatively, you can add the additional argument to the
MAVEN_OPTS environment variable instead.
On Windows use
Building directly from Eclipse
Instead of using Maven and Tycho, it is also possible to simply use the PDE Product Export wizard that's available in Eclipse. It requires to have the target platform configured and all Gyrex bundles imported in your workspace. The export can be started via File -> Export... -> Product configuration menu.
Note, however, that this is not recommended for producing official, production build results (to be published on Eclipse.org). But it's a convenient way of testing a product setup.
Build Process Insights
RelEng Project
The root for all build related stuff is the Gyrex RelEng (Release Engineering) tree. It contains:
git clone git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/gyrex/gyrex-server.git cd gyrex-server/releng
Target Definition
The Target Definition is used for dependency management. All dependencies are listed as p2 repositories hosted at Eclipse.
Product Configuration and Features
The Product Configuration generates the various downloadable artifacts (eg. Gyrex Server ZIP). It references Eclipse Features which define collection of bundles that are meant to be build/deployed together. There are two types of features - regular Gyrex features and dependency-only features. Gyrex features collect Gyrex bundles. Dependency-only feature collect all dependencies. This makes it easy to customize Gyrex based products with different dependencies by using custom features.
Headless Build Process
The build process is entirely based on CBI. CBI is the common build infrastructure at Eclipse.org which is based on Maven and Tycho and has some additional Maven plug-ins for signing of bundles/binaries, etc.
We use Hudson for CI. The build process on Hudson is as follows:
- Checkout all Git repos into same directory
- Invoke Maven using
releng/aggregator/pom.xmlwhich will
- Build target platform from target definition
- Build modules referenced in POM
- Assemble Gyrex Server Product
- Produce final p2 Repo (including signing of artifacts when executed on Eclipse.org infrastructure with Maven profile)
- Publish to download.eclipse.org (when executed on Eclipse.org infrastructure with Maven profile)
Hudson Build Jobs
The integration job is used for producing I, S and R builds. Care must be taken when producing S and R builds. The results are automatically published to download.eclipse.org (when running on Eclipse.org infrastructure).
The integration job is used for producing M and R builds of the maintenance branch.
Release Engineering
Please read through the following to get a better understanding of how releases are done.
Publishing Builds on download.eclipse.org
Builds get published automatically on download.eclipse.org. However, only I-Builds run automatically once per week. All other builds must be triggered manually.
Hudson: gyrex-latest
For producing development, milestone and major or minor release builds (no service releases).
|Integration Builds
|Milestone Builds
|Release Builds
|The type of a build.
|A specific identifier to label the build or empty to generate a default one.
|(leave empty)
|upcoming minor release (eg. 1.3) plus suffix (eg. M1, M2, ... RC1, RC2...) without space (eg. 1.3M1, 2.0RC1, ...)
|major.minor for minor and major releases (eg. 1.3, 2.0); note: see below for service releases
|The branch to build from.

Hudson: gyrex-maintenance
For producing service releases and maintenance builds out of the maintenance branch.
|Integration Builds
|Milestone Builds
|The type of a build.
|A specific identifier to label the build or empty to generate a default one.
|(leave empty)
|major.minor.service, i.e. exact release version of service releases (eg. 1.3.1, 2.0.1, 2.1.4)
|The branch to build from.
|should be the "current" maintenance branch (eg. "maintenance/1.3" for 1.3.x builds)
|The stream this gets published to on
|should be the current minor release stream (eg. 1.3 for 1.3.x builds) without last version component, just
Performing a Release
The following outlines the steps necessary for producing a release.
Pre-Release Steps
- Publish a few milestone builds as release candidates (RC1, RC2, RC3 ...)
Update Maven Parent, Target Platform and child POMs to RELEASE version
- Update Maven
pom.xmland remove
-SNAPSHOTversion suffix from:
- project -> version
- project- > properties -> gyrex-target-platform.version
- Important: if you find any other *.version property in project- > properties containing a -SNAPSHOT suffix you MUST abort here! Revert any changes, then update those versions to the release versions and start again with publishing and testing at least one additional RC (release candidate) build!
- project -> parent -> version
- all other POMs used in the build:
cd $GYREX_SERVER_REPO_ROOT(if necessary)
mvn versions:update-child-modules -f releng/aggregator/pom.xml -DgenerateBackupPoms=false
- Test build locally
cd $GYREX_SERVER_REPO_ROOT(if necessary)
mvn clean package -f releng/aggregator/pom.xml
- Commit changes and push to upstream at eclipse.org
Build and Publish Release
- Trigger build of the following Hudson job:
- gyrex-latest
- BUILD_IDENTIFIER: see tables above
- BUILD_BRANCH and PUBLISH_STREAM as desired
- gyrex-latest
- When builds are OK, create a release tag
cd $GYREX_SERVER_REPO_ROOT(if necessary)
git tag -a Rwhatever -m 'Release whatever'
- Push tag to push to upstream at eclipse.org
Update Maven Parent, Target Platform and child POMs to next SNAPSHOT version
- Update Maven
pom.xmland replace version with
next.minor.0-SNAPSHOTversion in:
- project -> version
- project- > properties -> gyrex-target-platform.version
- Update project- > properties -> comparator-repo.url to point to the just produced release (this is different than the -SNAPSHOT version)
- project -> parent -> version
- all other POMs used in the build:
cd $GYREX_SERVER_REPO_ROOT(if necessary)
mvn versions:update-child-modules -f releng/aggregator/pom.xml -DgenerateBackupPoms=false
- Commit changes and push to upstream at eclipse.org
Create maintenance branch and update Hudson
Note: this must only be done on major and/or minor release. This step is not necessary for maintenance releases.
- Create maintenance branch based on tag created above
- Update Maven Parent, Target Platform and child POMs to next service SNAPSHOT version (just.released.version+1-SNAPSHOT)
- Follow the exact same steps as in the previous section but this time on the maintenance branch using the next maintenance version
- Update the Hudson job configuration of gyrex-latest:
- Set default of PUBLISH_STREAM parameter to new
- Set default of PUBLISH_STREAM parameter to new
- Update the Hudson job configuration of gyrex-maintenance:
- Set default of PUBLISH_STREAM parameter to the released
- Set default of BUILD_BRANCH parameter to the created
- Set default of PUBLISH_STREAM parameter to the released

While having lunch recently with my friend Wendy, she was telling me about a recipe she had been working on for the Secret Recipe Club. The Secret Recipe Club?? I had to know more! I have my hands in quite a few food-related projects these days, but that didn't matter I immediately knew I wanted in.
The Secret Recipe Club is a group of food bloggers who each month are assigned another person's blog from the club but hush, mum's the word on who you got… It is a "secret" recipe club after all. Next, we visit the blog to check out all their goodies and choose a recipe to make from their site. We can adapt it however we like and then write a post on it. We all post on the same day and get to see who got who. Sounded like fun to me!
For my first assignment, I was given the blog Fried Ice and Donut Holes. The author of this blog, Melissa is a teacher by profession but loves to bake and cook, all the while sharing that passion with all of us through her blog. After cruising around Melissa's site for a bit I came upon a recipe for salted chocolate chip cookies. I've always been a fan of the whole salty/sweet combo so once I laid eyes on that recipe, I knew that was the route I wanted to go.
Recently I've been reading a lot of baking recipes that contain brown butter in the ingredient list. I love the flavor of brown butter in the savory dishes I cook. It just seems to add a level of complexity to the flavor profile of just about anything. I love how the butter takes on this nutty aromatic smell as it browns. So for my version of these cookies, I made mine with brown butter. I also added some shredded coconut cause I happened to have a bag sitting right at eye level as I was making the cookies and said "Sure! Why not?" and so in that went.
These cookies get finished off with a little pinch of sea salt that just takes them from yummy to over the top delicious. The recipe made a lot of cookies… about 4 dozen or so. So if you're not looking to feed an army you may want to cut the recipe in half. Fortunately, I happen to make these on the day before Mike was off to the firehouse. The next morning I sent him into work with several dozen cookies. Those cookies didn't stand a chance! At lunch time he sent me a picture of the tray he took in… there were only 4 cookies left! Needless, to say the guys at the firehouse devoured them and they were a big hit. These are definitely a new favorite in our household as well.
Salted Brown Butter Coconut Chocolate Chip Cookies
Adapted from Fried Ice and Donut Holes
4 stick of unsalted butter
2 1/2 cups brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
4 eggs
1 Tablespoon vanilla
4 cups of flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon fine sea salt, plus additional for sprinkling over cookies
12 ounce bag of chocolate chips
1 cup of shredded coconut flakes
– Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
– Place the 4 sticks of butter into a medium saucepan over medium heat. Melt, swirling gently. Once the butter has melted, it will start to boil and foam. Stir every now and then. Watch the butter carefully. (It can quickly go from brown butter to burned butter) The color will begin to change and little brown bits will form around the sides and on the bottom of the pan. Once the butter has turned a golden brown, remove from heat and transfer to a bowl to cool.
– In a medium bowl, mix both sugars, the cooled brown butter, eggs, and vanilla.
– In a large bowl, mix the flour, salt and baking soda.
– Add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and combine until moistened.
– Fold in the chocolate chips and shredded coconut.
– Scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet by rounded teaspoons. Sprinkle tops with just a pinch of fine sea salt and bake 9-11 minutes. Allow to cool 5 minutes on the baking sheet and then transfer to a cooling rack.
– Enjoy!
PS… Don't forget to go check out what the other members of the Secret Recipe Club were up to this month!

Elliot Tabush necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 137 diseños de 33 diseñadores freelance.
MX Alerts
I am creating an online service that monitors companies email servers. It tests whether they are functioning properly and if not, the user is notified. I am looking for a logo that may or may not include a catch phrase. The website is mxalerts.com but is not yet live.
I am gearing this site to IT professionals and business owners. I don't want to focus on any geographic area.
This logo is only for the website and will not be on any business cards, etc.
I want a logo with my brand name (MX Alerts) that may or may not include a catch phrase. I have not decided whether or not I want a catch phase. I guess it depends on how much I like the one you come up with.
Some of the catch phrases I came up with were:
• "Never be left without your email"
• "Need to know if your email is functioning"
• "Always knowing if your email if functioning"
• "Know before they do"
• "Simple and it works"
• "Simple + effective monitoring"
• "Email monitoring made simple"
The first few are too long but I wrote them so you can get an idea of what I'm looking for. I want it to be short and geared towards simplicity and effectiveness.
I do not have any requirements on the colors you should use. The design for the website is not complete so if I like the colors you use we might use those colors for the whole site.
The logo will most probably be located in the left hand corner of the site but you may also fit it to stretch across the top of the page.

Lymphatic Obstruction: A blockage of the lymph vessels that drain fluid from body tissues and facilitate immune system cell movement through the body. Lymphatic obstruction can be caused by such things as tumors, surgery, injury and infection. Obstruction can be primary (as in the case of inherited conditions such as lymphatic hypoplasia) or secondary (as in the case of infection). More detailed information about the symptoms, causes, and treatments of Lymphatic Obstruction is available below.

In America we do democracy by dividing the territory into districts, and electing one representative from each district. We elect them by plurality, that is, by whichever candidate gets the most votes, whether or not they get an absolute majority. If there are three candidates, a candidate can win with 40% support, for example.
This is not the only way democracy can be done. Other countries, fully democratic, do it in other ways. The way we do it, single-winner districts won by plurality, has some big systemic flaws. Every American knows these flaws, we live with them every election: Gerrymandering and the Spoiler Effect.
The Spoiler Effect makes it almost impossible to challenge the two largest parties. Under single-winner Plurality, voting for small parties is both useless and harmful. This means many voters with different points of view, and different issues, are unrepresented. Adding to this, Gerrymandering makes most districts into effective one-party states. When the dominant party in a legislature draws district lines to suit themselves, they deliberately "waste" as many opposition votes as possible, drawing the lines to make such votes either impotent or superfluous. Gerrymandering is used to make as many "safe" districts as possible, to make incumbents immune to challenge. There is less turnover in the U.S. House than there was in the Soviet Politburo. Gerrymandering also creates exaggerated majorities, and even false majorities, where parties with minority support get a majority of seats.
Gerrymandering and the Spoiler Effect are not necessary parts of democracy. There are other ways of doing democracy that don't have these problems. Every district can be competitive, and every voter can be a "swing" voter.
Gerrymandering is abolished by abolishing single-winner districts. If a district elects only one representative to the legislature, it makes a BIG difference where the district lines are drawn. If we use larger districts, where every district elects five representatives or more, distributed among the parties in proportion to voter support, where the lines are drawn makes no practical difference to the outcome. Proportional Representation greatly reduces "wasted votes". Instead of having a maximum of 50% of voters having effective votes (necessary to elect a winner), with proportional representation 80%, 90%, 95% of voters can elect a winner. The more representatives per district, the higher the percentage can be. Alternative parties can challenge the top two much more easily; if they get 10% of the vote, they get 10% of the seats in the legislature. With Proportional Representation, there is no spoiler effect; there is no penalty for voting for small parties.
For those elections that MUST have a single winner, such as for Mayor, Governor, or President, the Spoiler Effect is abolished by switching from plurality to another voting system that does not suffer from it. The simplest one is Approval voting: allow voters to vote "yes" or "no" for EACH candidate, saying "yes" to as many (or few) candidates as they wish. The candidate with the most "yes" votes wins.
To learn more about Proportional Representation, see http://www.fairvote.org and the book REAL CHOICES, NEW VOICES, by Douglas J. Amy. For more on the advantages of Approval voting, see
(What about Instant Runoff Voting, IRV? It is an improvement over Plurality, and I would support it and vote for it. But it is not the best alternative. It solves the spoiler effect, but it has a systemic flaw of its own, the Center Squeeze Effect; it sometimes malfunctions by picking a larger "wing" party over a smaller centrist party, even though a clear majority of all the voters would have preferred the centrist.)

An alternative approach to the Gerrymander problem is to require (depending on scale) that districts border on natural boundaries or boundaries that are not subject to whim. Statewide contests could require whole counties be in or out, perhaps rivers (which often do divide different groups of people). When they can wiggle a boundary around block by block there is no limit to the manipulation.
I would disagree with the blanket statement that third party voting is harmful. Holding your nose and voting for whatever the party bosses chose is harmful. It's only when people in some numbers start voting third party that they are forced to realize they do not have 'captive' voters.
As I see it, holding my nose and voting is exactly what the party bosses want. Staying home just looks like I'm apathetic. Voting third party is a way of saying 'none of the above.'
Good ideas. I'm not holding my breath for any of these to actually happen. But who knows?

The 2011 Pharmaceutical Country Profile for Egypt has been produced by the Ministry of Health, in collaboration with the World Health Organization.
This Pharmaceutical Country Profile provides data on existing socio-economic and health-related conditions, resources, regulatory structures, processes and outcomes relating to the pharmaceutical sector of Egypt. The aim of this document is to compile all relevant, existing information on the pharmaceutical sector and make it available to the public in a user-friendly format. In 2010, the country profiles project was piloted in 13 countries (http://www.who.int/medicines/areas/coordination/coordination_assessment/en/in dex.html). During 2011, the World Health Organization has supported all WHO Member States to develop similar comprehensive pharmaceutical country profiles.
The information is categorized in 9 sections, namely:
- Health and Demographic data,
- Health Services,
- Policy Issues,
- Medicines Trade and Production
- Medicines Regulation,
- Medicines Financing,
- Pharmaceutical procurement and distribution,
- Selection and rational use, and
- Household data/access.
The indicators have been divided into two categories, namely "core" (most important) and "supplementary" (useful if available). This narrative profile is based on data derived from both the core and supplementary indicators. The tables in the annexes also present all data collected for each of the indicators in the original survey form. For each piece of information, the year and source of the data are indicated; these have been used to build the references in the profile and are also indicated in the tables. If key national documents are available on-line, links have been provided to the source documents so that users can easily access these documents.

TOLL will exhibit a lag in some of the effects since they deal in a slightly upscale market, but are far from immune. They say that they do not warehouse mortgages without a buyer committed for the paper. If true, that is good management, but
the problem still remains... Who will be the buyer for the non-conforming stuff in this market. If Countrywide can't do it, you can bet your buttocks that a fancy homebuilder can't do it. If you think 30% losses quarterly looked bad, at earnings time, wait until you see next quarter's earnings after the effect of the mortgage crunch which slows sales, the land impairment charges, and impairment from whole loans (not necessarily MBSs) that are stuck in warehouse credit line show up!!!! In addition, some of these warehouse lines will be pulled by the banks during this fiscal quarter. As my little baby girl says, "Uh Oh!!!"
The mortgage insurers and investment banks like bear Stearns have similar issues, of reliance upon credit during bad times. There was a post on another blog by a fellow pundit that detailed two large mortgage insurers having leverage of up to 90:1. They cannot afford a run on the bank, which is exactly what is to be expected as ARMS reset.
Bear Stearns has about $22 billion dollars of equity capital, and about $423 billion dollars of assets. It is also the MBS king of the Street. With this leverage, a 5% move does a lot of damage to Bear Stearns equity. The same with the mortgage insurers.
Can this happen? Well, if I am not mistaken, Countrywide's sub-prime portfolio is currently experiencing a 5% default rate, and we have not even experience the first deluge of the 2 year ARM resets or significantly higher interest rates.

First is an ALCO PA1 Diesel built by for the Lehigh Valley's passenger service. This train is the famous Black Diamond, seen leaving Buffalo for New York City. This photo was taken by John Prophet in the early 50s.
Next is presented an ALCO PF1 built for the New York Central's freight service. This is a builder's card from ALCO.
Then is seen a New York Central Hudson type steam locomotive by ALCO at South Bend, Indiana. And lastly we see another Hudson, also an ALCO product, but in it's streamliner shell.
All of these were wonderfully designed engines. The steam engines were more powerful, but the Diesels were more economical.

The Centennial Barn is the home of the Cincinnati Modern Quilt Guild and I can't tell you how happy I am that our group meets there. I've always wanted to quilt in a barn and now I actually have the opportunity to! I have to thank our member and my friend, Sue, for finding the place and coordinating the rental agreement. It's seriously such an inspiring place to be. Here are some photos that I took before our last meeting a couple of weeks ago.
The barn sits on the grounds of the convent of the Franciscan Sisters of the Poor and was built in 1898. It was a working barn for many years before it was remodeled last year as meeting space. I love that the architects kept many of the original exterior and interior elements, including the large barn door.
This the the set of doors on the front side of the barn that you see as you approach it from the road.
looked like this one originally?
And a few more architectural details of the barn. I couldn't stop taking pictures!

I'm so saddened and sickened by the recent high school shooting in Bailey, CO, about an hour and a half from where we live. I don't understand what possesses people to do these things.
After one girl was killed and other girls were reportedly sexually assaulted by the gunman, I can't help but think about the safety of my own daughter. We do everything we can as parents to keep our children safe, but ultimately, it's not always under our control. 🙁 Such a scary thought.
Obviously a hostage situation in a school is an extreme case, but here are some tips on "What You Can Do to Protect Your Child" in other situations.
My heart goes out to the parents of all of the children involved, especially the girl who was killed.

It's hardly a well-kept secret that journalists can make an interviewee sound like she said pretty much anything. Those of us who are asked to speak on controversial topics know we risk seeing our words twisted to fit a predetermined narrative — even to suggest the exact opposite of what we clearly meant — every time we agree to an interview. But it's still quite a jaw-dropper to watch it happen as blatantly as it did this week, when CNN's Carol Costello warped an interview with Jaclyn Friedman (friend of SP and co-editor of Yes Means Yes: Visions of Female Sexual Power and a World Without Rape) into something about "raunch culture" and the pernicious influence of Ke$ha. The whole video (which purports to explore "what could be the 'third wave' of feminism," because apparently, the last twenty fucking years have gone unnoticed by CNN) and a transcript are available over at Shakesville. But here's the juicy part:
Costello: When it comes to binge drinking, experts say, sadly women are up to the challenge. According to Southern Illinois University, in 1996, 33 percent of women admitted to binge drinking or having five drinks in one sitting in the past two weeks. In 2008, that percentage shot up to nearly 41 percent.
Jaclyn Friedman, Editor, "Yes Means Yes": It's a really troubling message.
Costello: That's disturbing to feminist editor Jaclyn Friedman. She says women having fun or making stupid mistakes is one thing, but adopting destructive, raunchy behavior is scary.
Friedman: When it comes to sexual assault, most rapists use alcohol to facilitate sexual assault.
Aaaand, bam, Jaclyn's gone and we're back to Ke$ha. That song is so catchy!
If you're looking at that part I bolded and going, "WTF, Jaclyn?" well, you should be. You're absolutely right that it sounds nothing like the position of a feminist activist who spends half her life explaining and decrying rape culture. Mostly because it's not her position. Not even a little bit. On Twitter, Jaclyn's explained that she actually "said there was a double standard worrying about girls' drinking and not boys', and that the trouble with the binge drinking culture in general is that it gives plausible deniability to rapists. And that we should be telling men that THEY need to drink responsibly, because alcohol's not an excuse to rape! ARGGGGHHHHHH."
So the real question is "WTF, Carol Costello? What the fucking fuck?"
Jaclyn was kind enough to G-chat with me for a few minutes this morning before she got on a plane. I could probably keep ranting about this bullshit for another 90 pages or so, but for now, I'll just leave you with what she sounds like when the interviewer is not merely exploiting a subject's feminist credentials to further a tiresome, sexist narrative about "dirty girls."
Jaclyn: Part of the problem is one of nuance — the things I'm trying to say sound complicated, because they aren't things that people have heard much before. It's easy to understand the "OMG bad girls! Danger!" trope. Everybody knows it and can name that tune in three notes.
Me: And that tune is apparently "Tik Tok."
Jaclyn: Hee. Yes. It's a lot harder to say: "Wait. It's not that simple." To talk about women's freedom to be "good" or "bad" or drink or even do risky things, just as men have that freedom, while simultaneously talking about the real danger that is violence against women, and how the "bad girl" trope is used to excuse it. But I also think they knew what story they wanted. And when I didn't give it to them, they just made it work anyhow.
Me: Yep.
Jaclyn: Because they never once asked me about "raunchy behavior." Or third wave feminism!
Me: I know! I can't stop laughing at "what could be the third wave," even though it also makes me want to cry.
Jaclyn: And I told them straight up that it was ridiculous to wring our hands over girls' drinking and give boys a free pass. I'm just so angry. Because this is the second time I've been on CNN. Different producers, different reporters, different shows. And the EXACT SAME THING happened both times: I gave a smart, nuanced interview in which I steadfastly refused to victim-blame. And they edited me to sound like a total victim-blamer.
Me: Unbelievable.
Jaclyn: To be fair, I haven't done this kind of soundbite interview for any other networks. So I'm not singling out CNN over, say, FOX or MSNBC. I have no idea.
Me: But if they're going to keep spinning it like this, it's like, what's the point of having you on instead of just inviting someone from the Independent Women's Forum or whatever?
Jaclyn: What's the point? I have more cred. Which they are evidently determined to DESTROY.
Me: And then this goes out there as "what bona fide feminists believe," and we have to spend even more time telling trolls that's bullshit.
Jaclyn: EXACTLY. I mean, I'm CRUSHED to think anyone now thinks I actually believe that bullshit. I spend my entire life trying to UNDO that bullshit.
Me: I know!
Jaclyn: I am secretly pleased about one thing: All the people who bought Yes Means Yes b/c they saw me on that segment are going to have quite the surprise when they start reading. :)
Me: Ha! Right on.
Jaclyn: We did get a sales spike after it ran.
Me: That is terrific news… Although also sort of depressing news because it reinforces why we need to keep throwing ourselves to the wolves like this.
Jaclyn: Uch, I know.
Me: Well, thank you for taking one for the team YET AGAIN.
Jaclyn: NP. Wish it had gone better.

During Pregnancy
If you are pregnant and live in the City of Cleveland, MomsFirst can help you have a healthy pregnancy. MomsFirsts Community Health Workers are trained in health care and social services. They will meet with you twice a month and provide education, support, and resources to reduce risk factors that may affect the health of your baby or yourself.

For these services, please contact Northeast Ohio Neighborhood Health Services, Inc. at (216) 231-7700.
Health Insurance
Receiving prenatal care is an important part of pregnancy. To explore your options for health insurance so that your appointments are covered, Click Here!
Medical Home
Do you have a Doctor that you see regularly for check-ups? If not, consider finding one. Ask friends and families for a recommendation or think of clinics that are close to home. It is easier to access a Doctor that you know and have an established relationship than relying on urgent care or emergency room visits for care.
Fathers Matter
Dads to be are an important part of bringing a healthy baby into the world. There are many supportive services available to help fathers navigate their new role. Find one that is best for you, Click Here!
Perinatal Depression
We have all heard of the baby blues, but did you know that depression during pregnancy is very common also?
MomsFirst staff is trained to administer a perinatal depression screening to all program participants, called the Edinburgh Perinatal Depression Scale, which can determine whether or not a mom is at risk for experiencing depression.
If you or someone you know may be depressed, you should contact a mental health provider. Here is a list of some providers that offer services to pregnant and postpartum women:
It is important to get early and regular prenatal care even if you feel fine. Why? Because most problems, if caught early, can be corrected before they become serious. Going to your doctor or midwife regularly may prevent your baby being born too soon or too small or even dying. Even if this is not your first pregnancy, prenatal care is critical to make sure you and your baby stay healthy.
If you are pregnant and have not started prenatal care, please contact your medical provider as soon as possible to make an appointment.
Sexually Transmitted Diseases
Even though you are pregnant, it is still important to practice safe sex. Sexually transmitted diseases (STD) can affect the health and development of your baby. If you think you have been exposed to an STD, it is important to get tested right away to decrease the impact it may have on your fetus.
Find out where you can get tested for STDs
Smoking and Pregnancy
If you smoke tobacco products or have a partner who smokes, it would be best to quit before getting pregnant. Smoking not only can cause cancer, emphysema, and other health problems for yourself, but it can cause many complications with your pregnancy such as preterm labor, having a low birth weight baby, and respiratory infections. If you smoke, you can quit!
If you would like help, here are some resources:
Assuming there are no health issues, allow your baby to develop as much as possible inside the womb. Hospitals are beginning to discourage moms from choosing to have their babies before 39 weeks of pregnancy have been completed. Read more here.
Dental Hygiene
It is important to see a dentist at least once during your pregnancy.
Your teeth and gums are affected by pregnancy. Many pregnant women notice that their gums bleed when they brush or floss their teeth. Food particles that get caught between the tooth and gum attract bacteria, which can lead to inflammation. This condition can be uncomfortable and cause swelling, bleeding, redness or tenderness in the gum tissue. This can happen to anyone, but the hormones of pregnancy often aggravate it by causing tissues to swell. If this condition worsens, a more advanced condition called periodontal disease may affect the health of your baby. Studies have shown a relationship between periodontal disease and pre-term, low birthweight babies.
These conditions can be prevented by brushing and flossing at least twice a day and seeing your dentist for regular check-ups. If you need help locating a dentist please call 1-800-336-8478 or visit www.1800dentist.com.
Dental OPTIONS is a program to help people with low income and no dental insurance get discounted dental care.
For more information on the Dental Options program visit: www.ccbh.net/dental-options
Lead Poisoning Prevention
Lead poisoning is a serious problem in the City of Cleveland. Lead poisoning prevention applies to all family members, not just children. Exposure to lead during your pregnancy can affect your baby-to-be. Lead enters the body through ingestion or inhalation. It is important to know that lead can be passed from mother to fetus. The lead levels of mother and fetus are almost the same.
Ways to be exposed to lead include:

Vintage motorcycle racing in the US
Posted 18 April 2007 - 01:00
We started out thinking about running a very small bike in WERA, but in watching some racing, we decided that the vintage crowd was a bit more mature, not to mention the bikes interest me more. T54 will chastise me for going with a 2 stroke, but here's what we're putting together (fear not though, we'll have an EGT sensor in each chamber).
The frame is from an early 70's RD350, with an RD400 swingarm, and an RD Daytona Special front end. We'll also use Daytona wheels front and rear. The engine will be an RD400 that's being thoroughly gone through, rebuilding the crank, having the cylinders ported, modifying the original carburetors, and fitting a set of expansion chambers. We're having shocks built for the rear, and the front end redone. Custom springs matched to my rider's weight, original calipers front and rear, and smaller than original master cylinders front and rear for better feel. Hyabusa rearsets, a stock tank (required, the TZ style tank would have looked great), and a race seat/tail section will finish it off.
We'll be looking for about 70 horsepower and under 260 pounds. It will run in Vintage 2 in WERA, and Formula 500 in AHRMA. I'll post photographs as it get built, with completion sometime (hopefully) in late June or July. With WERA's mandatory rider schooling, the 1st race should be sometime shortly after that.
Has anybody else on here raced vintage bikes? It really looks like fun.
Posted 18 April 2007 - 17:39
When you said you were going to build a vintage bike I had visions of a Triton or maybe a Domiracer but I suppose an RD350 is a just as interesting. Probably better if the rider doesn't weigh more than the bike too! Keep us posted on progress.

Mission Raceway, which 'replaced' Westwood is not suitable for bikes and so we have lost the bike participation which is a great shame.
Sounds like a great time. Too bad the bikes can't still run.

I've always taken the approach to never race anything that you're not willing to throw away. If an RD400 ends up in the scrapheap, I can live with that.

Fortunately, she's under 100 pounds in leathers. Power to weight ratio in her class shouldn't be a problem...

Grades and Class Attendance
Evaluation of a student's achievement is the responsibility of the instructor. It is assumed that during the progress of the course every instructor will have applied adequate, valid measures which will result in an objective, reasonably reliable grade assignment and that these measures will have been made known to the student at the beginning of the term.
Reasonable measures should be taken by the instructor, within the framework of the class structure, to evaluate the students and to make the results available to the students upon inquiry. Instructors should attempt to consult with students who are doing unsatisfactory work.
An Incomplete for a course may be given only when the student, due to circumstances beyond his/her control, has been unable to complete the course requirements within the official limits of the term. The mere failure to complete an assignment or to take the final examination, unless illness or other emergency is the cause, does not justify the recording of the Incomplete. The circumstances involved must be documented to the instructor's satisfaction.
If an instructor neglects to record a grade for a student, an Incomplete will be recorded. It will be the responsibility of the instructor to initiate a change of grade. If an instructor does not submit a final gradesheet by the Registrar's deadline, an Incomplete will be recorded. It becomes the instructor's responsibility to submit:
- The original gradesheets; and
- Change of grade forms to the Registrar's Office.
Students are expected to attend all classes in which they are enrolled. Instructors should exercise good judgment in considering excuses for absences, but it is the student's responsibility to confer with the instructor and to agree to any reasonable arrangements to compensate for his/her non-attendance.
When a student does not appear in class for several sessions, the instructor may contact the Office of Student Development and Orientation so that attempts may be made to locate the student.
Change of Grade Request:
If the instructor makes an error in determining the student's final grade, the reported grade may be changed. Grade changes for other reasons would normally be initiated under the incomplete grade, grade appeal, or academic integrity policies. For changes under this policy, the request for change should be initiated by the instructor and reported to the Registrar's Office within three weeks after the next term begins. The form for submitting the change of grade may be obtained from the department chairperson or the Registrar's Office and must be completed in triplicate, stating clearly and fully the basis for the requested change of grade. The department chairperson must countersign the form, indicating that he or she has reviewed and approved the requested change. Under special circumstances, as outlined below, the grade change shall additionally require the approval and signature of the dean. Upon receipt of a valid grade change form, the Registrar's Office will change the permanent record, and will forward one copy of the change of grade report to the student's academic advisor and one copy to the student. The Registrar's Office will return without action any grade change form that does not meet the specifications for justification and required signatures.
Special Circumstances
Special circumstances arise when:
- The department chair is the instructor of record. In this case the dean signs as the department chair's supervisor, indicating approval of the change.
- The error in determining the final grade is recognized after the expiration of the three week window for initiating grade changes.
- The instructor and the department chair cannot agree upon the magnitude or justification for the grade change. As chief academic officer of the college, the dean will review the case with the instructor and department chair, and will render a decision. If either the instructor or the department chair is unwilling to accept the dean's decision, that party may request arbitration by the Council on Admission, Graduation, and Academic Standards (CAGAS).

Comparing census demographics from different census years can be a difficult task due to changing geographic boundaries. Our normalized data product line assists researchers with comparisons of data across time by adjusting and weighting the census data to account for changes in geographies.
If you are working at the state level then there are no changes. But at all smaller geographies there are changes, some of them quiet dramatic some relatively modest. So for example in Colorado between 2000 and 2010 a new county was added � Broomfield. The surrounding 4 counties each spun off a small piece and created this new county (inside the circle on the 2010 map below).
This is a relatively small change and you can make adjustments manually if you needed to. However if you want to work at the Block Group, Tract or Zip code level then the changes are significant.
To demonstrate some of the issues associated with changing boundaries, below is a comparison of Maricopa County, Arizona in 2000 and 2010 at the Census Tract level. During this time span, Maricopa County expanded its population going from 3,072,149 to 3,817117 � a 24% increase. A quick appraisal of the two maps below demonstrates the numerous changes that occurred in the census tract boundaries, specifically the addition of 253 new tracts in 2010 � a 38% increase.
While many of these changes were in the most populated central part the outlying areas are the easiest to see these dramatic changes. Where the one large southern tract becomes four smaller tracts.
The Census 2000 Long Form is the most complete source of detailed information about the people, housing, and economy of the United States in 2000. This dataset contains variables such as income, housing, employment, language spoken, ancestry, education, poverty, rent, mortgage, commute to work, etc. There are 5,500 variables at the Block Group level and over 10,000 more variables at the larger geographies such as tract, zip code, county and state level.
Census 2000 Long Form in 2010 Boundaries, like all of our census-based products, comes with built-in data viewing and exporting capabilities as well as thematically shaded, color-mapping capabilities. With a few quick keystrokes you can generate full-blown maps or tables. You can extract data as dbf, ASCII, or shape files and use them as input files for other programs e.g. statistical (SAS, SPSS), database (Access, Oracle), spreadsheet (Excel, 1-2-3), and mapping (Arc View). You can even export any of the geographic boundaries into the mapping packages.
Census 2000 Long Form lets you easily explore, analyze, and visualize an enormous amount of details about the people, housing, industry, economy, and places in the United States � and once it is put into the 2010 boundaries it makes it simple to compare to the changes from the 2010 Summary File 1 (SF1) or the 2010 American Community Survey for an easy apples-to-apples comparison of the population of the United States.
