Villagers say Rwandan troops crossed into Congo
KIBUMBA, Congo (AP) — Villagers in a town on the Congo-Rwanda border say they saw a half dozen trucks with Rwandan soldiers cross into Congo last week to lend support to troops led by a wanted rebel leader.
"They started coming in two weeks ago. They left their uniforms at the border," said Pierre, a villager who only spoke on condition his second name wasn't used because of possible retaliation against him.
Pierre said he and his family fled into the bush to escape the fighting. When they came back, their house had been pillaged and all their belongings were gone, he said.
The account Rwandan troops entering Congo was backed by two other villagers who also declined to give their full names. Rwanda has steadfastly denied aiding rebels in Congo.
Hidden away in the volcanic landscape, the village of Kibumba has been the theater of some of the most intense fighting between two rival factions of the rebel group known as M23. Dozens of men died on each side.
"I've never seen anything like that," said Col. Vianney Kazarama, an officer loyal to the movement's military leader, Gen. Sultani Makenga. "We hardly ate or drank anything for seven days, and there were so many casualties".
The operations were led by Col. Innocent "India Queen" Kahina, a battle-hardened officer of Tutsi origins. According to Kahina, Bosco Ntaganda was also on the ground himself.
"I saw him across the battlefield. We shot at him, but he got away", Kahina said.
Bosco Ntaganda, a man wanted by the International Criminal Court for war crimes and crimes against humanity, is called "The Terminator" because of his reputation as a ruthless. As a young man, Ntaganda joined the RPF, a rebel group led by the current president of Rwanda, Paul Kagame, that put an end to the Rwandan genocide in 1994. After that, Ntaganda was alternatively leading rebellions or integrated in the Congolese national army.
In 2009, he betrayed Laurent Nkunda, his commander in the CNDP rebel group, in exchange for a position as a general in the Congolese army. He rebelled again in April 2012 when the Congolese government, yielding to international pressure, planned to hand him over to the International Criminal Court.
Until the movement split, Ntaganda's presence was always denied by the M23.
"When we were in Goma, he was in town, too. Runiga was protecting him," Stanislas Baleke, an M23 political cadre, said Monday.
Makenga dismissed the political head of the movement, Jean-Marie Runiga, in February. Both men then formed their own factions, which have been fighting since. Runiga's faction is said to be allied with Ntaganda.
According to several United Nations reports, Ntaganda has benefited from Rwanda's support, although Rwandan authorities strongly deny the claim.
Meanwhile, in Uganda, peace talks between the M23 and the Congolese government have been put on hold in the wake of the split in the rebel group.
Chrispus Kiyonga, the Ugandan minister of defense, said Monday it was not clear when both parties would return to the talks, although he said he wants them back within a week.
Representatives of the rebels and the Congolese government last met on Feb. 6.
Kiyonga said the split within M23 "presents a new challenge" for the talks, which Uganda has mediated since December under the banner of a regional bloc called the International Conference on the Great Lakes Region, or ICGLR, of which Congo is a member. Regional leaders under ICGLR have said M23's grievances are "legitimate."
The fighting within M23 has left some of the rebel group's representatives stranded in the Ugandan capital, Kampala, with Makenga naming a new political chief and alienating those believed to be loyal to Runiga. Francois Rucogoza, the former leader of M23's peace delegation to Uganda, is now afraid to go back to Congo, Kiyonga said.
The split within M23 was the result of a new thinking among some in the rebel ranks who suspect they would lose the patronage of regional countries such as Rwanda if they failed to make peace with the Congolese government, said Angelo Izama, a political analyst with a regional security think tank called Fanaka kwa Wote.
"What caused the rift, as far as I can understand, is that a deal has been brokered by Makenga and others to give up Ntaganda," Izama said. "I don't think there is anything more sinister than that."

Dear Heloise: Our family lives all around the U.S., and we are always trying to find time to visit. Before we leave, we hide little folded (and dated) notes around their homes with messages about our stay, our love of them, wishing we could see them again soon, and silly thoughts about little things that will mean something.
We put them in their car glove box, cereal boxes, taped to the back of bottles, between their DVDs, in linen closets between towels, in the freezer, in bathroom drawers, in winter boots, in pockets of coats and under lamp bottoms.
The notes are warm reminders of the visit and usually bring smiles. I found one recently in my home that was 12 years old. My sisters started this for our mother when she would feel sad as we were all about to leave. She loved it! - Skeeter Gurzick, Omaha, Neb.
Dear Heloise: When I'm cooking a meal, not everything is ready at the same time. First is the baked potatoes. I keep them hot by putting them in an oven mitt. They stay ready to serve with the rest of the meal. - Ken Leach, The Villages, Fla.
Potatoes can be used in so many ways and often are a part of a meal or even a meal in itself. One of the potato recipes I enjoy the most is a recipe that my mother, the original Heloise (1919-1977), brought back from China in the 1940s. It is Heloise's Peking (Double-Baked, Stuffed) Potatoes.
If you would like to try it, send for my pamphlet Heloise's Main Dishes and More. All you need to do is send $3 and a long, self-addressed, stamped (65 cents) envelope to: Heloise/Main Dish, P.O. Box 795001, San Antonio, TX 78279-5001.
This pamphlet also has Heloise's Southwestern Veggie Rice and Mother's Chinese Beets. Did you know that many Americans consume more than 120 pounds of potatoes every year? That's a lot of spuds! - Heloise
Dear Heloise: Thank you for the great hint to use pill sorters for pets' medicines! They will be great for kennel visits. - M.S., via email
Send a money-saving or timesaving hint to Heloise, P.O. Box 795000, San Antonio, TX 78279-5000, or you can fax it to 210-HELOISE or email it to email@example.com.

When to Book Fourth of July Flights
For most airlines, the earliest you can book a flight is about 11 months before your departure date. Unfortunately, domestic fares tend to remain high and steady for about 7 months prior to departure. Airlines just aren't pressured to fill seats, which is why they don't offer fare sales that far in advance.
So when is the best time to book your travel? The prime ticket-purchasing window starts 104 days before a flight. After that, fares fall slowly and steadily until they reach their lowest point, which is 54 days before departure. Prices then begin to climb again, but stay within $10 of that low number until 29 days before the flight.
For those of you who missed the prime-booking window, your best chance of finding a last-minute deal on a Fourth of July flight is about 21 days in advance. Booking this week could potentially net you a 17% savings.
So, if you want to get away on Independence Day, make sure to purchase your Fourth of July airline tickets at the right time to get the right price.

Most people don't really care if their stapler matches their pencil sharpener, or if their tape dispenser matches their USB hub. But that's only because they haven't seen Yu Jian's gorgeous bamboo desk set that incorporates various office-related accessories into hollowed-out bamboo trunks.
The collection will bring a sort of zen-like consistency to your desk, and will most likely have you wishing your monitor, printer, phone and laptop were all covered in a bamboo finish too. It will also have you wishing Jian had intentions of actually selling these, instead of just taunting us with lovely product shots.

chmod is a command in Linux and other Unix-like operating systems. It allows you to change the permissions (or access mode) of a file or directory. This wiki aims to show you different ways of using chmod to alter permissions by showing the structure of the commands, as well as examples in which the code is put into practice.
Viewing permissions
In order to use chmod to change permissions of a file or directory, you will first need to know what the current mode of access is. You can view the contents of a directory in the terminal by "cd" to that directory and then using:
$ ls -l
The -l switch is important because using ls without it will only display the names of files or folders in the directory.
Below is an example of using ls -l on my home directory:
[ben@ben ~]$ ls -l total 128 -rw-r--r-- 1 ben users 832 Jul 6 17:22 #chmodwiki# drwxr-xr-x 2 ben users 4096 Jul 5 21:03 Desktop drwxr-xr-x 6 ben users 4096 Jul 5 17:37 Documents drwxr-xr-x 2 ben users 4096 Jul 5 13:45 Downloads drwxr-xr-x 2 ben users 4096 Jun 24 03:36 Movies drwxr-xr-x 2 ben users 4096 Jun 24 03:38 Music -rw-r--r-- 1 ben users 57047 Jun 24 13:57 Namoroka_wallpaper.png drwxr-xr-x 2 ben users 4096 Jun 26 00:09 Pictures drwxr-xr-x 3 ben users 4096 Jun 24 05:03 R -rw-r--r-- 1 ben users 354 Jul 6 17:15 chmodwiki -rw-r--r-- 1 ben users 5120 Jun 27 08:28 data -rw-r--r-- 1 ben users 3339 Jun 27 08:28 datadesign -rw-r--r-- 1 ben users 2048 Jul 6 12:56 dustprac -rw-r--r-- 1 ben users 1568 Jun 27 14:11 dustpracdesign -rw-r--r-- 1 ben users 1532 Jun 27 14:07 dustpracdesign~ -rw-r--r-- 1 ben users 229 Jun 27 14:01 ireland.R -rw-r--r-- 1 ben users 570 Jun 27 17:02 noattach.R -rw-r--r-- 1 ben users 588 Jun 5 15:35 noattach.R~
What the columns mean
The first column is the permissions of each file. if it begins with a - it is a normal file, if it begins with a d, then it is a directory i.e. a folder containing other files or folders. The letters after that are the permissions, this first column is what we will be most interested in. The second one is how many links there are in a file, we can safely ignore it. The third coloumn has two values/names: The first one (in my example 'ben') is the name of the user that owns the file. The second value ('users' in the example) is the group that the owner belongs to (Read more about groups).
The next column is the size of the file or directory in bytes and information after that are the dates and times the file or directory was last modified, and of course the name of the file or directory.
What the permissions mean
The first three letters, after the first - or d, are the permissions the owner has. The next three letters are permissions that apply to the group. The final three letters are the permissions that apply to everyone else. Each set of three letters is made up of r w and x. r is always in the first position, w is always in the second position, and x is always in the third position. r is the read permission, w is the write permission, and x is the execute permission. If there is a hyphen (-) in the place of one of these letters it means the permission is not granted, and if the letter is present then it is granted.
In case of folders the mode bits can be interpreted as follows:
- r (read) stands for the ability to read the table of contents of the given directory,
- w (write) stands for the ability to write the table of contents of the given directory (create new files, folders; rename, delete existing files, folders) if and only if execute bit is set. Otherwise this permission is meaningless.
- x (execute) stands for the ability to enter the given directory with command
cdand access files, folders in that directory.
Let's see some examples to clarify, taking one directory from above:
# Ben has full access to the Documents directory. # He can list, create files and rename, delete any file in Documents, # regardless of file permissions. # His ability to access a file depends on the file's permission. drwx------ 6 ben users 4096 Jul 5 17:37 Documents # Ben has full access except he can not create, rename, delete # any file. # He can list the files and (if file's permission empowers) # may access an existing file in Documents. dr-x------ 6 ben users 4096 Jul 5 17:37 Documents # Ben can not do 'ls' in Documents but if he knows # the name of an existing file then he may list, rename, delete or # (if file's permission empowers him) access it. # Also, he is able to create new files. d-wx------ 6 ben users 4096 Jul 5 17:37 Documents # Ben is only capable of (if file's permission empowers him) # access those files in Documents which he knows of. # He can not list already existing files or create, rename, # delete any of them. d--x------ 6 ben users 4096 Jul 5 17:37 Documents
You should keep in mind that we elaborate on directory permissions and it has nothing to do with the individual file permissions. When you create new file it is the directory what changes, that is why you need write permission to the directory.
Let's look at another example, this time of a file, not a directory:
-rw-r--r-- 1 ben users 5120 Jun 27 08:28 data - rw- r-- r-- 1 ben users 5120 Jun 27 08:28 data (Split the permissions coloumn again for easier interpretation)
Here we can see the first letter is not d but -. So we know it is a file, not a directory. Next the owners permissions are rw- so the owner has the ability to read and write but not execute. This may seem odd that the owner does not have all three permissions, but the x permission is not needed as it is a text/data file, to be read by a text editor such as Gedit, EMACS, or software like R, and not an executable in it's own right (if it contained something like python programming code then it very well could be). The group's permssions are set to r--, so the group has the ability to read the file but not write/edit it in any way - it is essentially like setting something to Read-Only. We can see that the same permissions apply to everyone else as well.
Changing permissions using the chmod command
Text method
To change the permissions-or access mode-of a file, we use the chmod command in a terminal. Below is the command's general structure:
chmod who=permissions filename
Where Who is any from a range of letters, and each signifies who you are going to give the permission to. They are as follows:
u - The user that own the file. g - The group the file belongs to. o - The other users i.e. everyone else. a - all of the above - use this instead of having to type ugo.
The permissions are the same as already discussed (r, w, and x).
Lets have a look at some exaples now using this command. Suppose I became very protective of my Documents directory and wanted to deny everybody but myself permissions to read, write, and execute (or in this case search/look) in it:
Before: drwxr-xr-x 6 ben users 4096 Jul 5 17:37 Documents
Command 1: chmod g= Documents Command 2: chmod o= Documents
After: drwx------ 6 ben users 4096 Jul 6 17:32 Documents
Here, because I want to deny permissions, I do not put any letter after the = where permissions would be entered. Now you can see that only the owners permissions are rwx and all other permissions are -'s.
This can be reverted back again:
Before: drwx------ 6 ben users 4096 Jul 6 17:32 Documents
Command 1: chmod g=rx Documents Command 2: chmod o=rx Documents
After: drwxr-xr-x 6 ben users 4096 Jul 6 17:32 Documents
This time I wanted to grant read and execute permissions to the group, and other users, so I put the letters for the permissions (r and x) after the =, with no spaces.
You can simplify this to put more than one who letter in the same command e.g:
chmod go=rx Documents
Note: It does not matter which order you put the who letters or the permission letters in a chmod command: you could have chmod go=rx File or chmod og=xr File. It's all the same.
Now let's consider a second example, say I wanted to change my data file so as I have read and write permissions and fellow users in my group users who may be colleagues working with me on data can also read an write to it, but other users can only read it:
Before: -rw-r--r-- 1 ben users 5120 Jun 27 08:28 data
Command1: chmod g=rw data
After: -rw-rw-r-- 1 ben users 5120 Jun 27 08:28 data
This is exactly like the first example, but with a data file, not a directory, and I granted a write permission (Just so as to give an example of granting every permission).
Text method shortcuts
The chmod command lets us add and subtract permissions from an existing set using + or minus instead of =. This is different to the above commands, which essentially re-write the permissions (i.e. to change a permission from r-- to rw-, you still need to include r as well as w after the = in the chmod command. If you missed out r, it would take away the r permission as they are being re-written with the =. Using + and - avoid this by adding or taking away from the current set of permissions).
Lets try this + and - method with the previous example of adding write permissions to the group:
Before: -rw-r--r-- 1 ben users 5120 Jun 27 08:28 data Command: chmod g+w data
After: -rw-rw-r-- 1 ben users 5120 Jun 27 08:28 data
Heres another example, denying write permissions to all (a):
Before: -rw-rw-r-- 1 ben users 5120 Jun 27 08:28 data Command: chmod a-w data
After: -r--r--r-- 1 ben users 5120 Jun 27 08:28 data
Copying permissions
It is possible to tell chmod to copy the permissions from one class, say the owner, and give those same permissions to group or even all. To do this, instead of putting r, w, or x after the =, we put another who letter. e.g:
Before: -rw-r--r-- 1 ben users 5120 Jun 27 08:28 data
Command: chmod g=u data
After: -rw-rw-r-- 1 ben users 5120 Jun 27 08:28 data
This command essentially translates to "change the permissions of group (g=), to have the same as owning user (=u). Note that you can't copy a set of permissions as well as grant new ones e.g.:
chmod g=wu data
Because chmod will have a small fit and throw you an error.
Numeric method
chmod can also set permissions using numbers.
Using numbers is another method which allows you to edit the permissions for all three owner, group, and others at the same time. This basic structure of the code is this:
chmod xxx file/directory
Where xxx is a 3 digit number where each digit can be anything from 1 to 7. The first digit applies to permissions for owner, the second digit applies to permissions for group, and the third digit applies to permissions for all others.
In this number notation, the values r, w, and x have their own number value:
r=4 w=2 x=1
To come up with a three digit number you need to consider what permissions you want owner, group, and user to have, and then total their values up. For example, say I wanted to grant the owner of a directory read write and execution permissions, and I wanted group and everyone else to have just read and execute permissions. I would come up with the numerical values like so:
Owner: rwx = 4+2+1=7 Group: r-x = 4+0+1=5 (or just 4+1=5) Other: r-x = 4+0+1=5 (or just 4+1=5)
Final number = 755
Command: chmod 755 filename
This is the equivalent of using the following:
chmod u=rwx filename chmod go=rx filename
Most folders/directories are set to 755 to allow reading and writing and execution to the owner, but deny writing to everyone else, and files are normally 644 to allow reading and writing for the owner but just reading for everyone else, refer to the last note on the lack of x permissions with non executable files - its the same deal here.
To see this in action with examples consider the previous example I've been using but with this numerical method applied instead:
Before: -rw-r--r-- 1 ben users 5120 Jun 27 08:28 data
Command: chmod 664 data
After: -rw-rw-r-- 1 ben users 5120 Jun 27 08:28 data
If this were an executable the number would be 774 if I wanted to grant executable permission to the owner and group. Alternatively if I wanted everyone to only have read permission the number would be 444. Treating r as 4, w as 2, and x as 1 is probably the easiest way to work out the numerical values for using chmod xxx filename, but there is also a binary method, where each permission has a binary number, and then that is in turn converted to a number. It is a bit more convoluted, but I include it for completeness.
Consider this permission set:
- rwx r-x r--
If you put a 1 under each permission granted, and a 0 for every one not granted, the result would be something like this:
- rwx rwx r-x 111 111 101
You can then convert these binary numbers:
000=0 100=4 001=1 101=5 010=2 110=6 011=3 111=7
The value of the above would therefore be 775.
Consider we wanted to remove the writable permission from group:
- rwz r-x r-x 111 101 101
The value would therefore be 755 and you would use chmod 755 filename to remove the writable permission. You will notice you get the same three digit number no matter which method you use. Whether you use text or numbers will depend on personal preference and typing speed. When you want to restore a directory or file to default permissions i.e. read and write (and execute) permission to the owner but deny write permission to everyone else, it may be faster to use chmod 755/644 directory/filename. But if you are changing the permissions to something out of the norm, it may be simpler and quicker to use the text method as opposed to trying to convert it to numbers, which may lead to a mistake. It could be argued that there isn't any real significant difference in the speed of either method for a user that only needs to use chmod on occasion.
Selective chmod
Since folders should be chmod to 755 and files to 644 in PHP-.Nuke, you need a means of applying the above command only to files, or only to folders. No problem with pipes, just do Code:
find directory/ -type d -print0 | xargs -0 chmod 755
find directory/ -type f -print0 | xargs -0 chmod 644
The "/" after the directory name is important here. The "-type" option selects the appropriate file type (directory of file), the "-print0" option terminates the names wih a zero, so that filenames with blanks are recognized properly (since filename terminator is now a zero and not a blank). xargs applies the following command (chmod) to any arguments passed to it by the pipe, -0 indicates again that the argument separator is a zero and not a blank.
If you use some Windows program, search for some settings. I know that WS_FTP has a graphical interface to chmod, see for example How to chmod using WS_FTP. Just select all the files you want the change to apply to and follow the instructions in that link.
Whilst this is an article dedicated to chmod, I felt I should give some mention to chown as chmod and chown can come hand in hand. Where chmod changed the access mode of a file or directory, chown changes the owner of a file or directory, which is quicker and easier than altering the permissions in some cases, but do be careful when you do so.
Consider the following example, making a new partition with GParted for backup data. Gparted for may does this all as root so everything belongs to root. This is all well and good but when it came to writing data to the mounted partition, permission was denied.
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 9 Jul 6 16:02 sda9 drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Jul 6 16:01 Backup
As you can see the device in /dev is owned by root, as is where it is mounted (/media/Backup). To change the owner of where it is mounted I did the following:
Before: drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Jul 6 16:01 Backup
Command: chown ben Backup (cd'd to /media first)
After drwxr-xr-x 5 ben root 4096 Jul 6 16:01 Backup
Now the partition can have backup data written to it as instead of altering the permissions, as the owner already has rwx permissions, I altered the owner to myself. Alternatives would be to alter the permissions for everyone else (undesirable as it's a backup permission) or adding myself to the group root.

Despite being routinely described as one of the world's most popular bands on

indulge in hyperbolic discussions regarding the "greatest" bands in the world, but what
exactly constitutes "greatness" in music, and, in particular, popular music? Album sales?
Longevity? Membership in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame? Critical reception?
Influence? Originality? How would you define greatness ?

Teen workers (under age 18) are entitled to an uninterrupted meal break of at least 30 minutes if they work more than 5 hours in a day. They also are entitled to at least a 10-minute paid rest break for each 4 hours worked. They must be allowed a rest period no later than the end of the third hour of the shift.
Fourteen- and 15-year-old workers may not work more than 4 hours without a 30-minute uninterrupted meal period. This is separate from and in addition to rest breaks. They must also receive a paid rest break of at least 10 minutes for every 2 hours worked. They must have a rest period after 2 hours for every 4 hours of work.

NH first lady endorses advocacy group's push to get kids outside
CONCORD, N.H. (AP) � New Hampshire first lady Dr. Susan Lynch is endorsing an advocacy group's recommendations on how to connect children with nature in New Hampshire.
The New Hampshire Children in Nature Coalition recently released a report outlining seven goals, starting with getting kids outside to enjoy the great outdoors.
That idea has the backing of both the state Fish and Game Department and Lynch, who says New Hampshire's rich and diverse natural resources offer many opportunities for children to lead more active lifestyles.
State health officials estimate that nearly a third of New Hampshire children ages 6 to 12 are overweight or obese, and nearly three-quarters of children ages 6 to 17 don't get enough physical activity.

During the past several years, Ed Polcer has become one of the most sought after performers on the jazz festival circuit. He has appeared in hundreds of concerts, festivals and jazz parties throughout the United States, Canada and Europe, including numerous return appearances at the Newport/Kool/JVC Festival in New York. Ed's musical versatility and leadership have earned him a reputation as a dynamic bandleader, and he is often called upon to organize festivals, concerts, dances and parties.
Ed joined Benny Goodman's Sextet for an American tour in 1973. An expert showman, Ed has led numerous concerts with varied themes, including his extensive U.S. tours for Columbia Artists. In 1992, '93 and '94." A Night At Eddie Condon's", transported the audience back to the famous nightclub and gave a musical retrospective of American jazz over the last 100 years.
Since 1996, Ed's "Magic of Swing Street" has offered classic jazz in its many forms as it was played on New York's fabled W. 52nd Street. "The Magic of Swing Street" has been performed at jazz festivals worldwide, including four appearances at New York's Lincoln Center. He has also performed the show with several symphony orchestras. Ed's recent presentation, "When Broadway Meets Swing Street", merges show tunes with the world of swing. "Lionel, Red & Bunny" is a centennial celebration of legendary jazz musicians Lionel Hampton, Red Norvo and Bunny Berigan. Ed established a second residence in New Orleans for several years, where he felt reinvigorated by playing in a variety of venues with musicians of all ages. He has especially enjoyed playing with a young generation of jazz musicians. Currently, Ed has become involved in the functioning of the Louis Armstrong House Museum in Queens. He finds self-fulfillment by giving live music demonstration to the school groups that visit the Armstrong House on a daily basis. Some weeks, several hundred students (grades two through high school) visit with their teachers. He also conducts occasional tours to visitors from around the world.
In the mid '90's, Ed toured Germany as the leader of an international band, and toured Japan with the World's Greatest Jazz Band. In 2004, he was honored to play for the official opening of the Louis Armstrong House museum, and became a member of the Statesmen of Jazz. President Clinton invited Ed to play for the 1994 Congressional Ball in the White House, and in 2001, Ed appeared in a command performance in Bangkok for the King of Thailand.
If you dropped in at Eddie Condon's club in New York City between 1975 and 1985, chances are good you ran across Ed. Besides being the resident cornetist and bandleader at that historic jazz spot, he was also the manager and co-owner.Like many jazzmen, Ed comes from a musical family. His father and uncle were prominent horn players in New Jersey, where Ed grew up. He made his musical debut at the age of six as a xylophonist. At Princeton University, he joined Stan Rubin's Tigertown Five, perhaps the best-known collegiate Dixieland group of the day. With that band he made several Carnegie Hall appearances and performed at the wedding of Prince Rainier and Grace Kelly in Monaco.
Ed's production company, "Blewz Manor Productions", has issued several recordings and promoted numerous concerts and festivals throughout the United States and Europe. He has recorded extensively and his playing can be heard on the soundtracks of several movies. His CD "Let's Hit It!" was nominated for a 2003 TEC Award for Technical Excellence and Creativity.
In the 1980's, Ed was honored to serve as President of the International Art of Jazz, as well as a member of the Advisory Panel of the Jazz Musicians Foundation of New York. Ed's biography has been included in the New Grove Dictionary of Jazz, the Encyclopedia of Jazz in the '70s and the Biographical Encyclopedia of Jazz, both compiled by Leonard Feather and Ira Gitler, and Trumpet Kings by Scott Yanow. In Great Britain, Ed is listed inThe Guinness Who's Who of Jazz, as well as Jazz, the Essential Companion and Jazz, the Rough Guide. Chip Deffaaa devoted a full chapter to Ed in Traditionalists and Revivalists in Jazz.

The Laptop Wizards
I'm a computer geek, and my creativity revolves around computers.
My techs work from their homes and we buy "dead" laptops to refurbish, fix people's laptops for a service call, do remote support when possible so we don't even need to go into their homes. It's been me, only me, for a long time, and now I have employees, so I want a logo that expresses our uniqueness and our collective emphasis on customer service.
I have another, primary business that focuses on working with small-to-medium businesses, and The Laptop Wizards focuses on fixing laptops for individuals and families. So I want a fun approach to our marketing and brand name. I want something that's whimsical, memorable, recognizable, scalable, and that says something about laptops or technology. One idea a friend had was to have a "technology wizard" with sparkling computer chips on his robe. Another liked the idea of stars incorporated in the logo. I am relying on you to use your creativity for us.
I am okay with cartoons. What I don't want is traditional and boring. I'd like the colors royal blue, yellow, and red incorporated in the design if possible, or at least blue.
I'd like to use the logo primarily on the website, business cards, t-shirts, and in newspaper and magazine advertisements.
I would give you examples of computer repair logos I like, but I didn't find any.
I focus on individuals and families as well as break/fix repair from smal businesses. These target consumers will be in the immediate area of Tomball Texas, USA.
Colors I would like to incorporate:
Must have: Royal blue
Optional: Gold/yellow
Optional: Red
I would like a design that looks good printed in low-resolution black and white for a newspaper ad.
I would like it to be scalable, so I can have it on my website or on a business card, or even on a billboard. (when I'm rich)
I want the design to be friendly, not traditional, not too business-like or plain.
I am in Texas but do not want cowboy hats or boots or horses - too many of those logos here.
I would like the logo to be unique in the computer industry, but it should evoke technology in some way.
Go wild with magic or whimsey, but it still has to attract people who want a laptop fixed.

- Premier League
Benitez: Chelsea still improving
Rafael Benitez believes Chelsea are yet to hit their peak after thrashing Aston Villa 8-0 to move up to third in the Premier League table.
Fernando Torres set the tone for the match when he opened the scoring in the third minute and the Blues ran riot at Stamford Bridge to secure their first back-to-back league wins since October.
But Benitez insists there is still room for improvement after seeing his side score 13 goals in their last two games after a 5-1 Capital One Cup triumph over Leeds in midweek.
"I can see the team improving the little things we wanted to improve, but still we can improve some things and I say that after winning by eight," Benitez said.
"The main thing is to win our games. You can do that if you can see the team improving. I'm sure it will be closer. We'll try to be as close as possible, but you can see the mentality of the team; even after six goals they were still pushing forward for more."
His opposite number Paul Lambert was more concerned with his side's performance, for which he gave no excuse.
"I'm not going to sit here and make excuses, we were well beaten, second best all over the pitch,'' he said. "We'll have to pick ourselves up and go again on Wednesday, hurt as we are. Nothing really surprises me in football. I've been in it long enough to know you have to be bang at it every single game, but we were well below our standard of late.
"We'll go back to the training ground, train tomorrow and Tuesday, and go again. You go into every game thinking you can win. The first goal put us on the back foot, two minutes gone with a great header, but football shouldn't surprise you. They're a really young side. Sometimes getting beat tells you a lot about people.''

Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm ScreeningSkip to the navigation
Topic Overview
Abdominal aortic aneurysms can be found during an ultrasound screening test. Screening tests help your doctor look for a certain disease or condition before any symptoms appear.
Talk to your doctor about whether the benefits of screening would outweigh the risks in yourcase. For more information, see:
For men
Your doctor may recommend a screening test if you are a man who is:
- Age 65 to 75 and has ever smoked. footnote 1
- At least 60 years old and who has a first-degree relative (for example, father or brother) who has had an aneurysm. footnote 2
Some doctors think that other men should be screened too. Some say all men 65 years and older should be screened, regardless of their risk. Some say men as young as 55 should be screened if they have a family history of abdominal aortic aneurysm. footnote 3
For women
Women have a lower risk for an aneurysm than men do. But some doctors think that certain women should be screened.
Some doctors recommend screening for women who are 65 and older and either have smoked or have a family history of abdominal aortic aneurysm. footnote 3
If you have never smoked, screening is not helpful for you. footnote 1

Danny Boyle will remain a man of the people.
The British director of "Slumdog Millionaire" and "127 Hours" turned down a knighthood for his role staging the spectacular opening ceremonies at the 2012 London Olympics, he revealed in an interview.
The reason is simple: He says his work as the production's artistic director couldn't have succeeded without the assistance of literally thousands of people, including the stunt performer who jumped out of a helicopter dressed as Queen Elizabeth.
"It's just not me," the 56-year-old Boyle told the U.K.'s Radio Times (via The Huffington Post) "I also thought it was wrong, actually."
Five jaw-droppers from the 2012 Olympic Opening Ceremony
He continued: "You can make these speeches about 'this is everybody's work, blah blah blah.' And you've got to mean it, and I did mean it, and it is true, and it's the only way you can carry on something like that: through the efforts of all the people. I don't know whether I'll ever get invited back to the Palace."
When he's not politely begging off one of his country's highest honors and joining the likes of Sir Paul McCartney, Sir Elton John and fellow helmer Steven Spielberg among others, the Oscar-winning filmmaker meanwhile is looking at revisiting one of his early cinematic classics, 1996's "Trainspotting."
Boyle told the program he and longtime screenwriter John Hodge are working on a first draft adapted from Porno, novelist Irvine Welsh's sequel to Trainspotting that follows the hapless characters 20 years later.
Here are some more pics from the 2012 Olympic opening ceremony

The Boston Red Sox desire to trade Kevin Youkilis has been no secret and it appears both Red and White Sox have finally pulled the trigger. Reports out of the clubhouse are that Youkilis's nameplate has been removed from his locker and Bobby Valentine said there is a "situation pending."
Youkilis actually got the start today, and after hitting a triple in the eighth inning, Valentine pulled Youkilis for a pinch runner, allowing the Fenway crowd to give a final farewell to the Greek god of walks. [TBS]

Wondering Why Music Licensing Is The Way It Is/
The NYTimes has a nice article on Matt Porterfield's truly free film PUTTY HILL. I got to moderate a discussion around the film last year after its Berlin premiere and again this year for our screening series at Goldcrest -- yet the movie had a significant change during the time that passed. The Times piece touches upon it: The Rolling Stones wouldn't even enter into discussions about licensing "Wild Horses" to Matt and his team.
Why is it if you are an artist whose art is singing other people's songs, our culture has worked it out in the most frictionless way manageable? But if you are an artist whose art is filming artists whose art is singing other people's songs, you have to go to herculean tasks to gain permission? Filmmakers are required to go through a much more difficult process to practice their art in this instance.
To sing another artist's song, you pay a royalty on record's sold (and in countries outside the USA, even when it is performed in a public context). To film an artist performing a song, be it theirs or someone else's, you can't simply pay a royalty, you have to get permission. In the case of PUTTY HILL, this lead to a costly reshoot to replace The Rolling Stones. Now some may say, why film this to begin with if you don't have permission, but what if your style is, like PUTTY HILL's, a combination of fiction and doc, where you are trying to capture the world as it is when it is, and that includes someone singing "Wild Horses"? Shouldn't we find a way for our culture to be inclusive and allow this to happen?
On "The Devil And Daniel Johnston" some great scenes of Daniel covering others' compositions could not be included in the film precisely because of this reason.
Maybe someone can explain the logic behind this for the rest of us...

WESTBROOK — Tucked in the corner of a hilly neighborhood between downtown and the Stroudwater River is a compound of duplexes – identical aside from the color of the siding and the size of the bicycles on the stoops – where hijabs are almost as popular as jeans.
The scent of spices permeates the apartments, and carvings of quotes from the Quran hang on the walls in the well-kept complex, where more than 200 Arabic-speaking residents have relocated since 2010.
"It's safe. Nice people here. Nice place," said Kosay Alwan, as two of his children, twigs in hand, chased each other on the weather-beaten grass outside their home at Westbrook Pointe.
Portland has long been a place where immigrants have resettled, but in recent years a rising numbers of new Americans have made their homes in its suburbs. School district data show there's been an increase in non-English-speaking students everywhere from Gorham to Cape Elizabeth, but nowhere has the trend been more apparent than Westbrook.
The growing population of people from the Middle East, Africa and other parts of the world is changing the fabric of the former mill town. There's a new ethnic market off Main Street and school menu items are marked halal to accommodate the dietary needs of the many Muslim students.
Adult English classes at the community center are filling up, and nearly half of the households that applied for general assistance from the city last month identified themselves as immigrant or refugee.
But the change is most evident in the schools' English-language-learners program, which has grown almost tenfold since 2005, when it had 27 students. This year, there are 265.
Meanwhile, the number of non-English-speaking students in Portland has grown more slowly, and even leveled off in the last two to three years. Many of the immigrants who moved to Westbrook came to Portland first.
Many of the residents said they heard about housing opportunities in Westbrook by word of mouth, from family or a friend. Others said they ended up in the city by chance; it was the first place a subsidized apartment opened up.
For many, it's the third or fourth stop since they fled from their home country out of fear for their lives. They came by way of Burundi, Egypt, Tennessee, Texas — and from Forest Avenue and Auburn Street in Portland.
Alwan said he fled to Turkey in 2008 to go "anyplace, just to leave Iraq." Through the United Nations, he was placed in Portland, where he met an interpreter who told him about Westbrook Pointe.
He likes the quiet and the quality of the schools.
Those are often among the reasons immigrants — or anyone — move to the suburbs, said Audrey Singer, a senior fellow from the Brookings Institution's Metropolitan Policy Program. For people who are new to the country, affordable housing and access to public transportation make certain towns and cities more attractive, she said. Westbrook, a city of 18,000 with a poverty level above the state average, has both.
If someplace gets a good reputation within an established immigrant group in the area, Singer said, an influx of new residents can come quickly. "Once a social network forms, a lot of information is passed," she said.
Often, Singer said, it comes down to one apartment building getting good recommendations — just what happened with the Arabic community at Westbrook Pointe and, before that, with African refugees at an Avesta Housing complex on the other side of the Presumpscot River.
Called Steeple Square, the three-story homes with shutters on the windows and porches in front take up most of Walker and Webb streets. The first African family moved there in May 2009, said Mindy Woerter, spokeswoman for Avesta. Now, 25 of the 73 units are rented by families from Rwanda, Burundi, the Congo, Sudan, Angola and Togo, she said.
Francine Nkurunziza's family, originally from the Congo, moved in two years ago from an apartment on Park Avenue in Portland.
"This is nicer than the other one," she said, sitting in her kitchen earlier this month while home on spring break from the University of Maine.
Her parents like that they can walk from their home to Tigris Market, a store on Bridge Street that was opened by an Iraqi immigrant in 2011 and always keeps a certain kind of corn flour used in African bread.
Jabbar Jabbar, whose brother owns the market, said he'll take special orders for anyone. Working the register on a recent afternoon, he weighed a bag of goat meat for a customer while having a conversation in Arabic on his cell phone, held between his shoulder and his cheek. Behind the scale hung phone cards that he sells to people who want to place international calls, one kind for Africa and another for the Middle East.
Those are the locations of the 11 countries of origin listed by last month's applicants for general assistance from the city — a good indicator of who's new in town.
Program administrator Sarah Ludin said 33 of the 73 households that applied in February identified themselves as immigrants or refugees. That's more than double the number of applicants from immigrants and refugees a year earlier, when they made up 16 of the 51 households.
Down the hall from the general assistance office in the Westbrook Community Center, the food pantry has also seen an uptick in the number of immigrant families, said director Jeanne Rielly. Although they make up a relatively small percentage of people who come in — maybe three dozen of the 350 families, Rielly said — she's gotten volunteers from Jordan and Rwanda to help with the growing number of clients who can't speak English.
In a different part of the building, English classes for adults on Monday and Wednesday afternoons are getting bigger every week. A young woman from Ethiopia dropped in halfway through the beginner class last Monday. She had been in America for two weeks.
"Today, maybe just listen," said teacher Mary Klement as she tugged on her own earlobes.
Sitting in pairs at old science lab benches, the rest of the students repeated the words for types of jobs: receptionist, custodian, mechanic. They talked about their own jobs, too. A woman from Sudan said she had been a nurse. A couple from Angola had owned a travel agency.
"We have folks that are walking in here with master's degrees," Klement said after class.
For most, she said, their greatest motivation for learning English is to be employable in America.
The beginner class is the biggest with 18 students — twice as many as there were in the fall semester, Klement said.
At Westbrook Middle School, the English-language program also doubled in size within the school year, from 48 students to 99.
In a classroom on the first floor, David Moisan's math students look like any sixth- and seventh-graders, in hooded sweatshirts and skinny jeans. When they raise their hands, they wiggle their fingers, some with nails painted blue.
But in addition to geometry, they're also learning English. Along with words like scalene and congruent, they're practicing how to say rectangle and square.
Parallelogram proved particularly difficult as the class in unison read off the words from a white board on a recent morning. Of nine students in the class, three are from Africa and six are from Iraq. Some slipped into Arabic as they compared worksheets, waiting for Moisan to check their math.
Over at Saccarappa Elementary School, one of Tiffany Oliver's second-grade students was writing her name in Arabic on the white board. Written above it was the phonetic spelling of the word for good morning: Sa-ba-ha-clair.
"They teach us stuff all the time," Oliver said of her Arabic-speaking students.
Saccarappa, which serves kindergartners through fourth-graders from the district that includes Westbrook Pointe, has the biggest English-language program of the three elementary schools. Principal Brian Mazjanis has a feeling the additional English-language teacher proposed in next year's school budget will end up in his building.
In addition to the 48 families who already live at Westbrook Pointe, many of those on the waiting list for apartments are Arabic-speaking, said Bob Sawyer, the property manager.
At one point, he said, there were just as many Russian families living there, but most have moved on, some to buy houses of their own.
Singer, from the Brookings Institution, questioned whether Westbrook is "just a temporary stop" for the immigrants who have relocated there in recent years. "They may be moving in and out as they can move up," she said.
That's the hope of Amer Banijameel, whose family moved to Westbrook Pointe in 2010, after stints in Atlanta and on Allen Avenue in Portland.
Compared to the apartment, his house in Iraq was a palace, he said. Now, his 12- and 14-year-old sons have to share a bedroom.
But his kids are doing well in school and he doesn't see a reason to move right now.
"Maybe next month, maybe 10 years, maybe I spend all my life here. Who knows?" he said.
If there was an opportunity to have a bigger house, he could see moving to another state. If the violence subsides in Iraq, he might want to go back home.
The reason he would leave Westbrook would be the same as why he came.
"When I get more choice, more chance, better life," he said.
