En:Systemd FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
For an up-to-date list of known issues, look at the upstream TODO.
- 1 How do I change the number of gettys running by default?
- 2 How do I get more verbose output during boot?
- 3 How do I avoid clearing the console after boot?
- 4 What other units does a unit depend on?
- 5 My computer shuts down, but the power stays on
- 6 After migrating to systemd, why won't my fakeRAID mount?
- 7 How can I make a script start during the boot process?
- 8 Status of .service says "active (exited)" in green. (e.g. iptables)
- 9 Failed to issue method call: File exists error
- 10 What would get started if I booted into a specific target?
How do I change the number of gettys running by default?
To add another getty, simply place another symlink for instantiating another getty in the /etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants/ directory:
# ln -sf /usr/lib/systemd/system/[email protected] /etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants/[email protected] # systemctl start [email protected]
To remove a getty, simply remove the getty symlinks you want to get rid of in the /etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants/ directory:
# rm /etc/systemd/system/getty.target.wants/[email protected]{tty5,tty6}.service # systemctl stop [email protected] [email protected]
systemd does not use the /etc/inittab file.
Users may also change the number of gettys that may be auto-spawned by editing /etc/systemd/logind.conf and changing the value of NAutoVTs. By doing it this way, the on-demand spawning will be preserved, whereas the above method will simply have the gettys running from boot.}}
How do I get more verbose output during boot?
If you see no output at all in console after the initram message, this means you have the quiet parameter in your kernel line. It's best to remove it, at least the first time you boot with systemd, to see if everything is ok. Then, You will see a list [ OK ] in green or [ FAILED ] in red.
Any messages are logged to the system log and if you want to find out about the status of your system run systemctl (no root privileges required) or look at the boot/system log with journalctl
How do I avoid clearing the console after boot?
Create a custom [email protected] file by copying /usr/lib/systemd/system/[email protected] to /etc/systemd/system/[email protected] and change TTYVTDisallocate to no
What other units does a unit depend on?
For example, if you want to figure out which services a target like multi-user.target pulls in, use something like this:
$ systemctl show -p "Wants" multi-user.target
Instead of Wants you might also try WantedBy, Requires, RequiredBy, Conflicts, ConflictedBy, Before, After for the respective types of dependencies and their inverse.
My computer shuts down, but the power stays on
$ systemctl poweroff
Instead of systemctl halt
After migrating to systemd, why won't my fakeRAID mount?
Be sure you use:
- systemctl enable dmraid.service
How can I make a script start during the boot process?
Create a new file in /etc/systemd/system (e.g. myscript.service) and add the following contents:
[Unit] Description=My script [Service] ExecStart=/usr/bin/my-script [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target
# systemctl enable myscript.service
This example assumes you want your script to start up when the target multi-user is launched. Also do chmod 755 to your script to enable execute permissions if you haven't done so already.
Status of .service says "active (exited)" in green. (e.g. iptables)
This is perfectly normal. In the case with iptables it is because there is no daemon to run, it is controlled in the kernel. Therefore, it exits after the rules have been loaded.
To check if your iptables rules have been loaded properly:
- iptables --list
Failed to issue method call: File exists error
This happens when using systemctl enable and the symlink it tries to create in /etc/systemd/system/ already exists. Typically this happens when switching from one display manager to another one (for instance GDM to KDM, which can be enabled with gdm.service and kdm.service, respectively) and the corresponding symlink /etc/systemd/system/display-manager.service already exists.
To solve this problem, either first disable the relevent display manager before enabling the new one, or use systemctl -f enable to overwrite an existing symlink.
What would get started if I booted into a specific target?
f you want systemd to calculate the "initial" transaction it would execute on boot, try something like this:
$ systemd --test --system --unit=foobar.target
for a boot target foobar.target. Note that this is mostly a debugging tool that actually does a lot more than just
calculate the initial transaction, so don't build scripts based on this.

HIV/AIDS News
NIAID-Supported Scientists Discover Origin of HIV-1
Today scientists reported that they have discovered the origin of HIV-1, the virus responsible for the global AIDS pandemic. A subspecies of chimpanzees native to west equatorial Africa has been identified as the original source of the virus.
Beatrice H. Hahn, M.D., of the University of Alabama at Birmingham, a grantee of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), led the international team of investigators. They describe their findings in the February 4 issue of Nature. The journal moved the normal press embargo ahead to coincide with Dr. Hahn's presentation of the study details on the opening night of the 6th Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections in Chicago.
This is an important finding with significant potential," notes Anthony S. Fauci, M.D., NIAID director. "We now have chimpanzee isolates of simian immunodeficiency virus [SIVcpz] that have been shown by careful molecular analysis to be closely related to HIV-1. Furthermore, this virus infects a primate species that is 98 percent related to humans. This may allow us - if done carefully and in collaboration with primatologists working to protect this endangered species - to study infected chimpanzees in the wild to find out why these animals don't get sick, information that may help us better protect humans from developing AIDS."
Until now, HIV-1's origin had been unclear. Although most scientists suspected that the virus descended from a primate species, only three chimpanzees infected with viruses related to HIV-1 had been documented, and one of these viruses correlated only weakly with HIV-1.
When Dr. Hahn and her collaborators recently identified a fourth chimpanzee infected with SIVcpz, they decided to use this opportunity to carefully examine all four viruses and the animals from which they were derived. With sophisticated genetic techniques, they analyzed the four SIVcpz isolates and compared them with various HIV-1 viruses taken from humans. They also determined the subspecies identity of the chimpanzees: three belonged to a subspecies native to west equatorial Africa, Pan troglodytes troglodytes. The fourth, the chimpanzee infected with a virus most unlike HIV-1, belonged to an east African subspecies known as Pan troglodytes schweinfurthii.
As it turns out, the three isolates from the Pan troglodytes troglodytes chimpanzees strongly resemble the different subgroups of HIV-1, namely groups M (responsible for the pandemic), N and O (both found only in west equatorial Africa). Their investigation also revealed that some of the viruses resulted from genetic recombination in the chimpanzees before they infected humans.
Their other significant find, Dr. Fauci notes, is that the natural habitat of these chimpanzees directly coincides with the pattern of the HIV-1 epidemic in this area of Africa. Putting all these pieces of the puzzle together, Dr. Hahn and her colleagues conclude that Pan troglodytes troglodytes is the natural reservoir of HIV-1 and has been the source of at least three independent occurrences of cross- species virus transmission events from chimpanzees to humans.
The authors believe that HIV-1 was introduced into the human population when hunters became exposed to infected blood. Furthermore, they speculate that humans might still be at risk for cross-species transmission because the bushmeat trade - the hunting and killing of chimpanzees and other endangered animals for human consumption - is still common practice in west equatorial Africa.
This new report suggests that preserving the wild chimpanzee populations will be crucial for further carefully designed studies to better understand how cross-species virus transmission occurs and how infected chimpanzees resist disease, studies that in turn may lead to new strategies for designing HIV drugs and vaccines.

My absolutele favorite season is just about here…Fall. Can you feel it in the air?
Setting aside the fact that it is clearly the best time for fashion (naturally), there is just something magical about Autumn. The way the leaves are changing color, the new brisk feel to the air, how you slowly start to emerge from your Air Conditioning to find that you want to take walks with your family, bake apple pies, play at the park, and jump in leaf piles. Did I mention that my birthday happens to be in the Fall? Yup, best Season ever.
Growing up my family had a tradition, like many families in the North East we would always go apple picking together. My goodness, the amount of apples we would come home with was astounding – but it yielded almost a month of home baked goodies. From apple pies, to apple turnovers, to apple jelly, and of course apple sauce – we would relish it all.
So when I recently got my hands on some burlap coffee bags courtesy of BurlapFabric.com, I knew they would make a perfect carrier as an homage to my apple picking days.
I love burlap fabric, the texture is so fun to work with, it is very reasonably priced, and it provides an incredible amount of strength! Perfect for holding things like tons of coffee beans, and ummm….apples!
Turning a burlap coffee bag into a tote is super easy, a novice sewist could make this bag.
All you need to do is…
And you are done!
Thanks so much for stopping by, and until next time…

"Camila turns into the Camilanator and I don't even know what happens to this girl." —Paula
"Emily competes almost like a dude."
How is MTV's Challenge like this Republican primary season? Well, in many ways, but the most obvious is the pressure that comes with being the frontrunner. Following in the tradition of Rick Perry, Newt Gingrich, and Herman Cain, Johnny and Camila seemed to crack under that pressure last night.
The episode began with the cast drinking and carousing at Club Ohno—the name would be an ominous presage of what would come. Signs of discord began at Ohno—Oh no! Camila doesn't think Johnny is paying enough attention to her and Oh no! Camila is drinking way too much—but things really came to a head back at the house, when a drunk Camila fell asleep in Johnny's bed. Rather than sleeping somewhere else or just sidling up next to her, Johnny decided to kick her out. Someone—I believe it was Ty—made the mistake of telling Camila that Johnny was "really pissed off," which sent Camila into a screaming, chair-throwing, walking-into-the-pool-with-clothes-on rage.

The late William R. Hewlett (of Hewlett-Packard fame), his wife Flora, and their eldest son Walter established this Foundation in 1966 to "promote the well-being of humanity." When William Hewlett died in 2001, he bequeathed the Foundation more than $5 billion, making it one of the America's largest philanthropic organizations. Now chaired by Walter Hewlett, the Foundation focuses primarily on "solving social and environmental problems." Its grant-making focuses on three major program areas: Education: Aimed at "improv[ing] the quality and equality of education in the United States and throughout the developing world," this program is divided into the categories of: California K-12 Reform; California Community College Reform; Open Educational Resources; and the African Education Initiative to fund "universal education, particularly in some of the most resource-poor countries in sub-Saharan Africa." Additional funds are earmarked for the education of "underserved" (i.e. minority) students in the United States. Environment: This program has three principal objectives: "to save the great ecosystems of the North American West"; "to reduce the environmental impacts of fossil-fuel energy systems by promoting energy efficiency and renewable energy sources"; and "to build an infrastructure for environmental concerns among California's growing but still underrepresented populations in the L.A. basin and the Central Valley." The program's grant-making priorities are rooted in the notion that wilderness areas in the American West currently "face unprecedented development pressures," most notably global warming caused by human industry, which the Foundation deems one of "the chief environmental concerns of our time." Performing Arts: This program generally supports established organizations whose annual operating budgets are larger than $100,000, rather than start-up ventures. The Hewlett Foundation also has program initiatives in the areas of conflict resolution, population control, U.S.-Latin American relations, and global affairs. Among the many groups that the Hewlett Foundation supports directly are the Advancement Project, American Bar Association Fund for Justice and Education; the American Civil Liberties Union; Amnesty International; the Aspen Institute; the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN); the Brookings Institute; the Center for International Policy; the Center for the Advancement of Women; the City University of New York; Columbia University; Defenders of Wildlife; the Economic Policy Institute; Ecotrust; the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights; the Environmental Defense Fund; the Environmental Working Group; Harvard University; Human Rights First; Human Rights Watch; the Institute for America's Future; the International Crisis Group; the Lambda Legal Defense and Education Fund; the League of Women Voters of California Education Fund; the Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund; Ms. Foundation for Women; the National Abortion and Reproductive Rights Action League Foundation (NARAL); the National Partnership for Women and Families; National Urban League; the National Wildlife Federation; the Natural Resources Defense Council; the Nature Conservancy; Planned Parenthood; the Ploughshares Fund; the Plowshares Institute; Population Connection (formerly known as Zero Population Growth); the Rockefeller Family Fund; the Sierra Club; the Tides Foundation and the Tides Center; the Urban Institute; the Wilderness Society; the World Resources Institute; and the World Wildlife Fund.

The Meaning of Deep Ellum
Aaron Sanders and Max Toste opened the doors to Deep Ellum, a collaborative venture born out of their shared appreciation of craft beer, classic cocktails, and wholesome cooking.
Creating a locale in which patrons could enjoy and explore the variety of tastes and flavors offered in a fun and unassuming atmosphere. While feeling they have succeeded to this end, they regard Deep Ellum as an ever evolving concept and community and welcome those intrigued to join them in the experience.
The name Deep Ellum refers to an area of Dallas known for its fabulous music, incomparable food and enticing nightlife since the early 1900's. The area has produced some of the most influential names in blues and jazz and today it is considered one the United States' touchstones for fashion, culture, art, food and above all, music. It is this same spirit Deep Ellum of Allston hopes to invoke among its guests.

HARDISTY — This is the place, the tiny speck on the Alberta map made famous by a pipeline that might never get built — the controversial Keystone XL.
And that's a little odd, because a handful of pipelines already feed oil into and out of more than 70 massive storage tanks on the hill near here. It cost billions to build that tank farm and the black gold it stores is worth even more. Keystone XL would only join that party, not start it.
In fact, Hardisty's conversion from rail stop and farming town to energy hub began with one valve and one line more than 60 years ago, so they know oil around here and they know that one more project, however large, probably won't change their lives. Because it's the same little town it used to be, give or take a new motel, before Keystone started grabbing headlines.
But thanks to that $5.4-billion proposal, Hardisty has had its 15 minutes of fame — or infamy, depending where you stand on the pipeline debate. All the media coverage in the past three years mentions Hardisty as the northern terminus for a line that would take 830,000 barrels per day to Cushing, Okla. And it's natural to picture Hardisty in mid-boom due to current and expected development. Construction cranes blocking out the sun, town officials widening sidewalks, money dripping from the taps — that sort of overt prosperity.
Media types have come looking for signs of largesse every now and then, and the locals have been waiting on the boom for decades.
But the petrobillions that flow into the tank farm built by Enbridge, Husky, TransCanada, Gibson Energy and others only trickle down the hill and into this picturesque town, its few quiet streets nestled between rolling hills in the Battle River valley, about 200 kilometres southeast of Edmonton. Though plenty of residents are employed in the energy industry — and intermittent tank farm construction requires workers who must be fed and sheltered — that work, those employees and their disposable income have always been temporary considerations.
Now, town officials say the boom has descended. For evidence, they point to an explosion in the value of development permits; to the expansion of the R&R Inn and the impending construction of a competitor; to a fully occupied eight-bay shop that is the initial development on a 19-hectare (47-acre) commercial parcel; to the fact the town has but 16 residential lots in its inventory and is sold out of commercial and industrial land.
"We're a miniature Fort Mac right now," said an enthusiastic Kevin Miller, who is chief administrative officer for the Town of Hardisty and Village of Lougheed, located 20 kilometres northwest on Highway 13. "As exciting as that is, it's scary in its own way, too, because we want to make sure we manage the development as well. We don't just want everything to all of a sudden explode and then, what happens in 10 years from now with water infrastructure, sewer infrastructure? We need to make sure we do it right, but oh, we're excited, and we're open for business."
He was so excited by a 483-per-cent increase in the value of development permits that he issued a news release in early November. The figure jumped from $1.7 million in 2012 to $7.7 million, with another $5.2 million pending before the end of December, related to a large work camp proposed by Horizon North. Most of the development growth is industrial and commercial, with residential permit value flat at about $1 million again this year.
Edmonton-based developer Trevor Federkiewicz and his business partner are planning to build four duplexes on Hardisty's 48th Street — with enough beds for 56 people — and will likely rent all four to oil companies for housing employees on temporary assignment.
"I didn't know where Hardisty was a year ago, honestly," said Federkiewicz. "We wanted to build high density and the town was keen. Hardisty is eager for business. It's reinventing itself."
He didn't have any trouble finding investors.
"A lot of people won't invest in small towns and that's unfortunate. A lot of people won't invest in boom and bust. But Hardisty ain't going anywhere. You can boom and bust it all you want, oil will still go through Hardisty."
That's what Clayton Hinkey thinks, too, and he has already bet heavily on it.
"Before, everyone was too scared to put serious investments into it because it's a small town," said Hinkey, who co-owns The Leaf, a sports bar located in the former train station. "Now, the word on the street is these (energy) companies' plans are going eight years ahead. This place came up for sale and we took the plunge. And that's what we bet on, that it will steamroll."
The Leaf's parking lot is almost empty during the four-day break between construction shifts, but chock full of pickup trucks when workers flood back into Hardisty for their 10 days on.
It's much harder to see signs of permanent money. About a third of the storefronts in Hardisty's modest downtown are closed or for sale or both. Trevor Bitzer's family ran the Vista Theatre on the main drag for more than 40 years, but shut the doors on Nov. 3 after screening Smurfs 2. Bitzer said it was a nice hobby and great to have his kids work there, but they are grown now. In addition, distribution companies are phasing out 35mm film and the cost to convert the Vista to digital equipment is a whopping $70,000. Community leaders are considering a non-profit initiative to raise the money and Bitzer would happily lease or sell the theatre to such an entity.
"Getting the theatre back open would help put more cars on main street," he said. "You want to see a lively downtown."
Between 2007 and 2009, when Enbridge built 19 tanks at once, the 148-seat theatre and every other place in town was hopping.
"There were lineups at the grocery stores," said Bitzer. "Every business in town had its best year I think. But those people were in and out — long enough to leave an effect, for sure — but they're gone. There is some new business now and some commercial property is changing hands. But there can be millions and millions spent on the tank farm and the result might be five more employees and one lives in Hardisty."
The town is in dire need of something more tangible and lasting.
"All we can hope is there is a little bit of consistency," said Mayor Anita Miller. "That would be the best for us. That's the dream. You have to think positive and you have to have your doors open, to listen to the proposals that these developers bring to you. You have to encourage it or they're going to knock on somebody else's door."
Maybe not. The tank farm grew out of the need for a pumping station and the billions already invested in pipeline infrastructure give Hardisty a leg up. As proof, Gibson Energy is partnering with U.S. Development Groupt to build an oil-by-rail terminal near the tank farm that will service two trains per day starting in 2014 and will require some permanent employees.
It holds some promise for a town that needs to draw families and businesses, not just temporary construction workers, if the boom is to manifest itself in something other than bar and restaurant tabs and hotel stays. But if that project doesn't trigger much residential growth and Keystone XL fails to cross U.S. President Barack Obama's desk, and the 49th parallel, well, the people of Hardisty will persevere.
"Hardisty never seems to quit, it never seems to die," said local real estate agent Jeff Golka. "It just keeps humming along. Sometimes it's faster, sometimes it's slower. To make it grow to a few thousand people, yeah, I've been waiting all my life for that to happen. More people, more activity, more businesses, I'd love to see that."
The town certainly has its charm and amenities: a K-to-9 school and a hospital, rodeo grounds, ball diamonds, curling and hockey rinks, campgrounds. Hardisty Lake and Hardisty Lakeview Golf Course are about a three-wood from The Leaf parking lot. All good things.
But it needs more investment in downtown business, more places to stay, more folks. The 2011 census counted 639 people, a 15 per cent decline from 2006.
"There are not enough accommodations — hotels, motels, bed and breakfasts, houses, whatever the case may be — in Hardisty," said the mayor. "Some (workers) may have to travel from Irma or Sedgewick or Czar. I don't know where they're all staying because they're not all staying in Hardisty, that's for sure."
Hinkey's day job is in Sedgewick and he sees way more cars on the way home now. But they're headed away from Hardisty at the end of the work day. And there are some residents who are probably fine with that.
"I think there are probably mixed feelings in town, because we have a varied age group," the mayor continued. "Ones that are looking for work probably see this as a positive. The ones that are retired probably find it a disruption. Your quiet town isn't quite as quiet as it used to be.
"But I think overall it's good because it boosts the economy. It has to help if you're building hotels or motels or shops, there has to be a spinoff for the restaurants and the gas station, grocery stores. There has to be come economic boost for other businesses in town and for their land value, that's for sure. It has to help all the way around and some people don't see that or don't understand that maybe."
Or maybe it's not there for them to see just yet.

Backup user passwords for Windows users in USB
A little known feature in Windows is that you can creat a password recovery USB.
Creating that recovery USB is pretty easy: just log in as a Windows system administrator. In Windows control panel pick the option User accounts.
Select the Windows user for whom you want to create the USB for password recovery. Among the options of this user, in the left area, under the Related tasks area, there is an option about Preventing to forget passwords.
When clicking that password forget prevention fature, a new dialog will appear to pick a password recovery disc in an USB key. (Well, you could use even a diskette for password recovery, but it isn't worth in these times...).
By selecting that option, the recovery passwords will be stored in the root of the USB as an encrypted text file. This safe file stores Windows passwords in a safe way, and it can only be accessed in the same Windows computer in which it was created (if no other password recovery USB is created using this same method).
So this is a way to create an USB for each user, as a system to recover Windows user passwords for each user.
How to store many Windows password recovery files in the same USB
Since the password recovery file created always has the same filename (it is called userkey.psw), you will need a different USB key for each user, in each Windows computer.
To solve this and have several user passwords stored in a single backup USB, you just need to rename the password file created (for example, to user0001.psw) and so on with the next password files that we create. Remember to organize them in a meaningful way to prevent forgetting the user and Windows associated to each password backup file.
After this, to recover Windows user passwords you just need to rename the proper backup file in your USB to userkey.psw, and using the USB key with such standard filename in its root.--- Originally written by Eugenio M.S. at tatachan.com

My children always teach me so much. I got back recently from a vacation with my family. We were coming in for a landing on our 2.5 hour flight when my youngest son asked what was behind the wing. It was a condensation cloud forming right behind the trailing edge of the wing.
So how do you explain condensation and vortices in terms that a four year old will understand? You have to put it in terms that they already understand. Describe the swirl that they see in a bath tub when you let the water out. Now put some glitter in the still water and it really isn't that noticeable until you create a vortex which brings it all together. It isn't exactly accurate, but at least it is something that they can relate to.
This got me to thinking about talking to stakeholders. No, I am not suggesting you talk to them like four year olds. You do need to talk to them in language that they understand though. If you talk in technical jargon you might as well be explaining physics to a four year old.
The important thing to do is learn the language of the business. It is your job to turn that business need into a technical architecture. The bonus that is gained from this effort is a better understanding of why the company is going through the trouble of building the systems in the first place. It also allows you to anticipate areas that could produce a competitive advantage from the implementation of a software system.
Soft skills are always our greatest asset as architects. Take every chance you get to improve them.
I guess it can happen to anyone. This weekend I started getting emails from friends and automated rejections form mail servers. It seems that my Yahoo account got hit with a virus that sends spam from my mail account to everyone in my address book. Now the surprising part is that this happened while running a web mail browser session which did not give an indication that a message was sent either visually or leaving a message in my sent mail. It also occurred without setting off warnings from either my local virus software (which is automatically updated) or any software that may or may no exist on Yahoo's servers.
So what can be learned from this experience. Nothing is ever 100% safe. We need to improve our detection systems to keep this sort of incident to a minimum. I know there has been talk of software that will search for virus patterns instead of specific virus signatures.
The whole experience left me feeling vulnerable. As a result I ended up checking all of my online accounts and changing passwords to make sure that nothing else was compromised.
Stay safe (or at least try).

Meat Lite: Spaghetti with Tomato-Braised Kale Recipe
Mostly vegetarian dishes with just a touch of meaty accent.
Editor's note: Philly food writers Joy Manning and Tara Mataraza Desmond drop by weekly with Meat Lite, which celebrates meat in moderation. Meat Lite was inspired by their book, Almost Meatless.
Everyone loves a plate of pasta, but most pasta preparations are more comforting than nutritious, usually calling for more than the recommended 2 ounce serving of pasta. This recipe is half spaghetti and half hearty kale sliced into spaghetti-like ribbons. A tiny amount of pancetta lends good flavor to the greens, and wine and tomato make for a familiar sauce that complements both the pasta and the kale. It's a soul-satisfying plate of spaghetti that doesn't overload you on carbs or make you feel like you're watching them.
- Rated:
- 2 ounces thick sliced pancetta, diced
- 1 medium onion, diced (about 1 cup)
- 5 sundried tomatoes, minced
- 1 medium bunch kale (about 8 ounces) stems removed and sliced thin, and leaves sliced crosswise into thin ribbons, parts separated
- 1/2 teaspoon hot pepper flakes
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3 garlic gloves, minced
- 1/2 cup white wine
- 8 ounces dried spaghetti
- 1 1/2 ounces Parmesan or Romano cheese, grated, plus more for serving.
In a large sauté pan over medium heat, cook the pancetta until the fat is rendered and the pork is crisp. Add the onions, kale stems, sundried tomatoes, red pepper flakes, and salt to the fat. Cook, stirring often, until the onions and kale begin to soften, about 12 minutes. Add the garlic and kale leaves, and cook, stirring constantly, until the leaves start to wilt and the garlic becomes fragrant, about 90 seconds. Add the white wine and stir, scraping browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the tomato puree, bring to a boil then turn heat to low. Simmer, covered, for 20 minutes.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add spaghetti and boil for about half the recommended cooking time. Using tongs, move the pasta into the kale and tomato sauce, along with about 1 cup of pasta cooking liquid. Add the cheese and stir to combine. Cover, and simmer until the pasta is finished cooking, about 10 minutes. Top with additional cheese, if desired.

The Family Business: Our History The Giordano family has been producing wine in Valle Talloria since 1900 At Giordano the art of producing fine wine is deeply rooted in a tradition which has been proudly passed on from father to son for over 100 years. For four generations this tradition has been fuelled by a love for the land, a passion for one's work, a respect for the lessons only experience can teach as well as by a quiet satisfaction in one's achievements. Each generation has contributed its own particular mark of personality and innovation without ever forsaking its roots. Using state of the art techniques and equipment offers us the opportunity of being able to create an ever wider range of products. At the same time this has allowed us to bring the quality of our products to the highest level, a fact that is widely appreciated both in Italy and abroad. Yet the people who work at the Giordano winery have remained proudly attached to the rural tradition in which this business is steeped, jealously guarding those rituals , that have always gone into making good wine, remaining true to their hearts and true to nature. The Cellars: Our Traditions Going down to the cellar and walking amongst the oak barrels, tasting wines directly from the cask is a ritual that is practised daily by Ferdinando Giordano and his son Gianni. The real heart and history of Giordano lies in the cellars of Valle Talloria d'Alba, where the wine is aged. For over one hundred years this is where all aspects of the winery's activity took place. Crushing, fermentation, ageing, bottling, stocking and shipping were all carried out here. As time passed, many of these activities were moved to the buildings that now surround the cellar . Today the sole inhabitants of these historic halls are the large oak barrels and smaller barriques in which Giordano's most prestigious red wines are aged. Set in the magnificent landscape of the Langhe hills amongst vineyards, woods, castles and farmhouses, Giordano's cellars are the destination of many wine lovers who visit to re-stock their cellars with their favourite bottles knowing that they will always receive a warm welcome. Deep in the heart of the cellars, behind a wrought iron grate, lies a long,narrow corridor known in the local dialect as the "infernot".Here bottles of the winery's most precious reserves are hoarded, some for over 50 years. Wines & Specialty Foods: Our Pride Experience, know how, careful selection of the best grapes, total control of quality in every phase of winemaking and above all passion! These are the ingredients that go into the making of a quality wine, a wine worthy of Italy's highest wine making traditions! These are the same ingredients that make up the Giordano range of wines. A range that extends from classic geographic appellation wines (D.O.C.s and D.O.C.G.s) from Piedmont to the excellent wines of southern Italy produced at Giordano's Torricella winery in Apulia, as well as wines from many of Italy's most renowned viticultural regions. Likewise Giordano's speciality food items are prepared with the finest ingredients and according to time honoured traditional recipes. Only after rigorous quality and taste testing can they be sold under the Giordano label and grace the tables of Giordano's discerning customers. Customer Satisfaction: Our Pledge To Serve Giordano is not so much a company as a group of people at the service of the customer: our strength is the direct relationship we establish with you our customer. Questions need answers, whether it is a request for information about our products, a query as to delivery times, payment methods, or how to send a gift to a friend, client or loved one Giordano's friendly customer service is always on hand to respond clearly and rapidly and to answer any doubts. Because at Giordano our customers come before everything else. Maintaining The Edge: Our Ambition The quality of a wine is firstly the result of the work that takes place in the vineyard and of the selection of the best quality grapes. However, it is in the delicate phase of vinification that a wine's essential qualities are brought out. Qualities that will be polished and enhanced through maturation in barrel or bottle and will be released in the glass when the wine is finally opened and enjoyed. It is for this reason that Giordano is committed to the continual updating of its wine making technology and training of its highly qualified viticultural and oenological staff. The entire cycle - from the pressing of the grapes, fermentation, vinification, storage and bottling is carried out with state of the art equipment by the skilled and dedicated winemaking team. For Ferdinando and Gianni Giordano TOTAL QUALITY is a company prerogative - thanks to the commitment of our staff it is a reality! Total quality is a reality at Giordano as is proven by the ISO 9001:2000 certification - an important seal of approval. This ensures that the winery carries out its production and sale of wine and speciality foods with a total respect for the regulations that guarantee the consumer's best interests. Read less

Experiences of pneumatic phenomena in contemporary Ghanaian Christianity as appropriations of 1. Cor 12-14
A critical analysis
432 Seiten, € 24,80
The notion of pneumatic phenomena is of much interest within contemporary Ghanaian Christianity. The reason is that Christianity in Ghana, like global Christianity, has been influenced by Pentecostal and Charismatic movements. The main aim of this dissertation is to examine the notion of pneumatic phenomena in contemporary Ghanaian Christianity with emphasis on the interpretation and appropriation of 1 Cor 12-14.

The other day I went in for my first official Yoga Studio Yoga class. I have done some yoga before at the Y and also some videos and I liked it. I haven't 'practiced' yoga in a while though. Recently purchasing a Living Social deal for Purple Yoga with some friends and co-workers, I thought it'd be much more fun to go with them and would motivate me to go. The classes are good until November so I knew I would be able to use them all. (Since then I've now also bought a pilates class pass for Studio H, which is AMAZING, went there this morning and my body is twitching and burning)
So I get to yoga, change over into lululemon capris and a tank. I had to ask if I needed to wear socks or what even to wear to an official class. We set out our mats in a good location close to the wall and close to the front so I could at least see what was going on. There were about 12-15 people in the class, including Kristy! I was whispering with my co-worker for a while and there was a lot of noise/music from the upstairs class so I was a little shocked when another yogi told the class to 'please take the talking outside.' We weren't even being loud and class hadn't started yet! Sheesh! But leave it to me to get in trouble by another classmate. HA!
The teacher came in and we jumped right into the burning poses. I took a blue 2.0 class which is a middle of the road class and I could do most of the poses but it just took me a little longer to get into it. I am a clock-watcher during class and the first half was SO slow and I was really struggling. I was slipping all over my mat and I forgot how hard yoga is! I was also more sweaty in this class than I EVER am when I run! What a workout! Though there were quite a few poses that I struggled with but I know that consistency is key when it comes to yoga and I just have to keep going, which is why I am going to go on Tuesday night again!
Yoga is hard, hard work, and doing that many poses does require a lot of arm and leg strength but you should never be afraid of doing yoga or scared to try it. I looked like quite a freak and it really was a struggle for me, but I felt awesome afterwords and it's great for strengthening so many muscles and I barely ever use. I was really enjoying it and though I was stretching in directions that are not normal for my body. The music was relaxing and the studio was great! Really clean and a great changing area and a great teacher taught our class. She adjusted me a little bit and was very encouraging. Check out your local yoga studio for more information and possibly see if they have any lower-priced community classes if it's really expensive.
Grab your mat and head over to the studio and stretch it out! You won't regret it and it's a great sore the next day! :)
Tonight after work I'm going to run my 3 miles since I took the pilates class this morning.

SEATTLE – On a Tuesday night in Seattle, the identity crisis and inferiority complex that has plagued the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup in recent years was nowhere to be found.
Some in MLS circles have called the tournament a waste of time and a second-rate competition. But those phrases were likely never uttered by the 31,311 fans at Qwest Field who did not budge from their seats for the Open Cup trophy presentation.
And the Open Cup surely wasn't a fruitless exercise for the players on both the Seattle Sounders and Columbus Crew. They battled tooth and nail for every ball and ran like their lives depended on it.
RECAP: Nyassi, Sounders top Crew in USOC
Then there was the champagne spray, the hoopla and hollering from the Sounders locker and the long faces dragging to the Crew bus. The USOC meant something.
Nothing manufactured there.
And so the Open Cup apologists and visionaries finally got their day of vindication. A well-played, nationally televised final in front of a packed, enthusiastic house: This was the way the tournament was meant to be played, its ultimate expression. It was reality and not just fantasy talk from the purists.
In the days leading up to the final, Sounders GM Adrian Hanauer addressed the dissenting voices around MLS that want the tournament abolished.
It has become clear that what those clubs are really saying is that they can't figure out how to get it done like the new kids on the block from Seattle. They are unable to build a squad that is competitive enough on all fronts to win the trophy for two consecutive seasons.
"This competition was won by our whole squad," Sounders goalkeeper Kasey Keller said. "It didn't matter what team was on the field. They stepped up and showed the pride for the club to come out and win every time. And that's not so with a lot of other teams in this league."
Sounders manager Sigi Schmid sent a message to those teams that have chosen to complain about the additional midweek fixtures dedicated to the Open Cup: If you don't like it, don't participate.
"Teams out there say they don't take the Open Cup seriously," Schmid said. "If you're not going to take something seriously, don't enter it. Just stay away."
And so this two-year old team, which gave itself the luxury of starting the Open Cup final with a Designated Player on the subs list while Sanna Nyassi ran rampant, has frankly left some of the more established dissenting clubs with egg on their face.
"It [winning back-to-back] sets us apart and makes us unique," Schmid said. "This is what we wanted to be - something special and different. Hopefully we can build on that culture."
For a tournament so desperately needing a shot in the arm and tangible evidence of what it could become, it got a lasting boost on October 5, 2010, as the Sounders edged past the Crew, 2-1.
It was a final that was even capable of evoking its 96-year history.
The Sounders made it their mission to match the New York Pancyprian Freedoms, who defended their title in the early 80s. Organizers also celebrated surpassing the 1929 attendance record for a USOC final, dusting off the once obscure match between New York Hakoah and Madison Kennel Club of St. Louis at Dexter Park in Brooklyn.
Qwest Field saw a soccer event that will rival any to be played or to have been staged this year.
No doubt there will be new discussions among soccer officials about how to make the Lamar Hunt US Open Cup as meaningful as it was on Tuesday. But until then, who will have the gall to speak out against it now?

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The chief of a group of more than 200 CEOs said on Thursday that President Barack Obama had told the business community last month he might back a territorial tax system, a regime that would exempt offshore corporate profits from U.S. taxation.
Corporate America is pushing for the United States to move to such a regime to make businesses more competitive against foreign rivals that pay no taxes on overseas earnings. The United States currently taxes corporate profits earned abroad only when they are brought into the country.
In 2011, then Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner privately agreed to move to such a regime in failed talks with Republicans to secure a major budget deal, according to aides present.
During last year's presidential election campaign, Vice President Joe Biden criticized a territorial tax system, employing populist rhetoric to blast companies that shift their business and jobs abroad.
John Engler, president of the Business Roundtable, a CEO lobbying group, said that in meetings during last month's budget standoff between the White House and Congress, Obama was moving back in the business community's direction on the issue.
"He reaffirmed his support for corporate tax reform and he was acknowledging the importance of ... a territorial system, which I think had been a little bit of a question," Engler said.
A White House official on Thursday said Obama is eager to "pursue corporate tax reform that lowers the rate ... but does not believe that a pure territorial system is the best way to achieve this goal."
A territorial system is seen as having a chance of winning approval in Congress only if it were to be coupled with a major budget deal, where Obama could win some of his priorities.
The Business Roundtable is composed of chief executives from marquee companies ranging from mega-retailer Wal-Mart Stores Inc to Wall Street's JPMorgan Chase & Co.
Lawmakers in Congress have been working on a tax code overhaul for more than a year, though its prospects are unclear given a crowded legislative agenda and disputes over revenue.
Obama last year pitched a corporate tax revamp that included cutting the top corporate tax rate to 28 percent from 35 percent and closing a number of business tax breaks to pay for the cut.
Pam Olson, assistant treasury for tax policy under Republican President George W. Bush and now chief of PricewaterhouseCooper's Washington tax practice, said Obama's plan carefully opposed a "pure" territorial tax system, but left the door open for hybrid systems that might, for instance, exempt some but not all offshore profits from U.S. taxation.
"The use of the term 'pure' I think, was a signal that they were willing to consider it," Olson said.
Critics of moving to a territorial system say it will cause further U.S. jobs and business to move offshore.
A report by the Congressional Research Service, a nonpartisan think tank for lawmakers, this month said U.S.-based global companies are increasingly shifting profits into tax havens like Bermuda and Switzerland.
Critics say this proves companies are aggressively skirting the law to avoid U.S. tax. Business groups say the trend is the result of the relatively high U.S. tax rate.
The notion of trimming the top corporate tax rate is a rare area of agreement between Democrats and Republicans on tax policy, though Republicans want to lower the rate more.
A major hurdle in any tax code revamp would be how to "broaden the base" of taxpayers, which both sides say is needed to help fund a tax rate cut. That would mean making hard choices about scrapping tax deductions, credit and loopholes that some companies hold dear.
Engler said his CEOs would be willing to give up some perks if it meant the corporate tax rate could be cut to 25 percent.
"There are credits for the way you handle depreciation, there are credits on R&D (research and development), there are credits on this type of manufacturing or this type of manufacturing product," he said. "They have to be on the table."

One in a series about Black Americans engaged in leadership roles for the 2012 International AIDS Conference (AIDS 2012).
Deloris Dockery runs the highly successful One Conversation project, a public-education AIDS-prevention and community-action campaign of the Hyacinth AIDS Foundation in Newark, N.J. She is also a member of the governance committee for AIDS 2012. Here, the activist -- who has been HIV positive for 16 years -- speaks about what she believes needs to happen to stamp out the HIV/AIDS pandemic; what she's looking forward to at this year's conference in July in Washington, D.C.; and why it's important for Black Americans to attend.
What do you believe needs to happen to end the HIV/AIDS epidemic?
We need to identify every single person who is infected by HIV, and we need to get them care. And "care" does not necessarily mean putting them on medication -- it does mean getting them into (health and social services) care and tracking their disease progression. This is important because if we can suppress viral loads to undetectable levels, we can reduce transmission.
We also need to involve more of the people who are infected in the whole decision-making process regarding what is done to stamp out HIV/AIDS. This can't just be about people creating legislation and making other moves on behalf of people living with HIV. It has to be done in partnership with those who are affected.
What do you most look forward to at AIDS 2012?
Hearing the voices of women living with HIV in the United States -- really kind of highlighting their presence. Oftentimes we're not heard and we're not seen. For me that's really important. That's one of the things that I have been fighting for.
I also want to hear about the scientific progress being made and the kinds of initiatives that are under way to combat the epidemic, as well as the implementation strategies that are being thought up to really get to a zero infected rate.
Why is AIDS 2012 so important?
I have attended the International AIDS conference since 2000, when it was in Durban, South Africa. It was there that I first realized the great change that could come out of these conferences. At that particular conference, we mobilized, recognizing that if we treated HIV in Tokara, Africa, and other places with large emerging epidemics, we could reduce transmission. That was a turning point for the global initiative.
I think we are at a point in history where we need that kind of mobilization again. We can really eradicate HIV. This conference is necessary to mobilize people in the United States and globally. It can serve as a turning point in this fight.
Why do Black Americans need to attend and get involved in the movement?
Oh my God -- we must be there. This epidemic is disproportionately impacting Black Americans, but we are unaware of it, uninterested and almost just complacent about it. It really disturbs me. I work in an urban center. I have been doing a lot of work in my area, reaching out to traditionally Black organizations. But I still don't think we, as a larger community, truly understand that this disease is devastating to our community.
I think we, more than anybody else, should be a part of this discussion. We should be involved in what's happening at the conference. We should care about the decision points that are made. We, more than anybody else, should be in the mix, should be vocal and should be visible.
Candace Y.A. Montague is the D.C. HIV/AIDS examiner for Examiner.com. She also writes for The Body, emPower Magazine and Capital Community News.

Hi there! I am new to the Java Programming forums, and I was wondering if there was a forum specifically dedicated to promotions of books, ebooks, and articles on Java Programming. If you could please send me a link to get me pointed in the right direction or just post a reply for me saying that there is no such section on this forum, in either case, I would be very grateful.

Do you hang out with 'can't do', 'no way' and 'I'll never be good at anything' sort of people? BEWARE, because we become like the people we associate with! Then you'll constantly be discouraged, on a downer and depressed. Instead, surround yourself with positive people those who can inspire and motivate you so you can, should, and do take action.
Avoid negative people and don't feel guilty about it – period!
Maybe you have a friend who needs to challenge everything you say – avoid them!
Avoid negative people at work.Don't pick up the phone or answer the door if a certain negative individual is calling or coming by.(See above cartoon!)
Turn the television off during news briefs that focus on what's wrong in your community or even the world. Negative news travels fast – very fast!(Do you think all this recession would be as bad if it wasn't for the press/media going on about it all the time?)
Avoid reading newspapers, books or magazines that may portray or write a story on negative people.
Don't get sucked into negative conversations.
Here's some proactive steps you can take to align ourselves with positive people: You could also visit this blog everyday!
Visit other online forums and get involved with positive discussions.
Go to local community events, clubs or groups.
Organize a positive mentoring group.
Listen to upbeat music, instead of talk show radio programs.
In negative conversations change the subject to something positive so that you don't get sucked in.
Find other avenues of socializing as opposed to drinking in bars, such as joining clubs, going for walks in the park or opting for a nice dinner out on the town instead. (With exception to bars like this…)

For more than 25 years, Donalee Markus, a Highland Park-based learning specialist, has helped struggling students by emphasizing the importance of "exercising their brain muscles."
The onetime junior high teacher helps kids build their mental muscles to address their weaknesses and master subjects that frustrate them. But you don't need to be flunking geometry to benefit from her tools — she has also worked with NASA engineers. With end-of-the-year panic about to set in regarding papers, projects and final exams, Markus talked about life, learning and confronting your deficits.
Q. What's the difference between what you do and tutoring?
A. We use puzzles and exercises involving visual imagery to diagnose gaps in critical thinking skills, such as analysis, inference and progression. Because the exercises are content-free, the objective is not to solve the puzzle but to generate as many ways of approaching the game as possible. So, if you make a mistake, you learn from it.
Q. Can you give me an example of how these exercises help in a real academic situation?
A. When I teach the ACTs, I have students circle what they think is the right answer and then mark the second best answer … so you can do your own error analysis. For one student, 19 of her second answers were right … so, we looked at where she was making her mistakes. She could see that she selected the most detailed answer when the test wanted the most concise description.
Q. So how can parents help their kids break down a big project into something manageable?
A. You have to set the stage for success … and that doesn't mean more nagging. So, let's say your child has a paper due on Edgar Allen Poe. You might mention something unusual about his background as a way to engage your child. You might create a work space in the dining room, so every time he walks past, it will be a reminder.
Q. I completed eighth grade already. Why do parents need to do that kind of hand-holding?
A. It's about starting them down the road. I learned how to write a dissertation by seeing other dissertations … so I could understand what is expected of me. Great chefs don't just start cooking. First, they watch, then they might get a small task, like chopping onions … then, a tougher job. The goal is not to get the paper done. It's about the process … and transferring that process to the student.
Q. Isn't that level of involvement a crutch? Won't kids expect Mom or Dad to get them started every time?
A. Each time, you pull back a little until they do it on their own. What I'm talking about is a kind of mentoring. After all, you won't be around to write their papers in college.
Q. You don't think our constant reliance on technology is a good thing. Can you explain?
A. Visual imagery skills are the foundation for abstract thinking and technology frequently keeps us from using our prefrontal cortex. So, before Mapquest, if you were going on a trip, you'd have to look at the map, plan your route, figure out how long it would take to get from here to there. There are lots of steps involved … and we don't have to do them anymore. That's how we strengthen executive planning, which is what distinguishes us from other mammals.
Q. You don't like the term "learning disability." Why?
A. It sounds like a permanent diagnosis. There can be a weakness in a specific area of learning, but it's not written in stone. The brain has tremendous plasticity, so new neural connections can be made. … It's like having a weak serve in tennis. We can rehearse and strengthen the skill.
Q. You emphasize the importance of failure. Can you explain?
A. The biggest problem — especially for gifted kids — is that they do something so terrifically that they think learning is automatic … not something within your control. So, then your perception is either you are good at something or you're not … but your weaknesses can hold you back. Gifted kids don't appreciate the importance of rehearsal because they have very limited experience with rehearsal.
Q. Well, no one is good at everything. So, what's wrong if you channel all your energy into being a highly skilled musician, dancer or baseball player?
A. None of us know what life has in store for us. So, if you are a violinist and you hurt your neck in a car accident or a pitcher who has an arm injury, what will you do? It's OK to be wonderful in one thing and not so good in something else. But you don't want to have such a large gap that it limits your participation in life. We all need choices.
