Tracking for the long term
We're developing tracking databases for management of content over time. Recognizing that this is still software-dependent, and that relational databases are inherently unstable, the plan is to periodically print reports from the database and store these as flat files in the top levels of the storage system, as a form of manifest.
InfoTrack and md5sums are located on libcontent.lib.ua.edu. The checkscripts database, which documents any errors encountered and also when each script runs (and thus when the MD5 sums are verified) is described in Tracking_automated_scripts.
The InfoTrack database
This table contains information about each collection sufficient for a PHP script to be able to dynamically deliver an alphabetized list of current online collections and EAD finding aids, descriptions, icons, links to the content (and if available, the finding aid associated, and the link to that online). Most of this information comes from the Collection_Information file created by Digital Services personnel when they begin to digitize a collection, drawing information from the spreadsheets filled out by archivists. This information is uploaded by the collToDbase script described in step 10 of Moving_Content_To_Long-Term_Storage or the moveContent script described in the 3rd section of Most Content. These scripts also add the expected canned link for retrieving content, and specify if the collection is online yet. More information about this table is available here: allColls
Once a collection has been released for harvesting into LOCKSS, we must monitor the size and additions to that content, and avoid any changes. As content is communicated over the network, we log here the identifier, manifest number, and date (and for collections which are subcollections of others, such as rare books, the subcollection title and parent identifier).
This table was created to support persistent identifiers. It's a lookup table to provide redirects. Each item for which we would like to provide this support is assigned a number. Retrieval of that item will be by using a URL of the form: http://purl.lib.ua.edu/3234 where the number following the last forward slash is the number of the item. The actual url is stored in this table (realurl), along with the assigned number (purlnum), an original identifier (id_2009), a datestamp, and a history of any changes (history). This table is accessed by the script redirect.pl which lives in the cgi-bin of libcontent.lib.ua.edu. A URL rewrite and a virtual host configuration, along with the DNS registration of purl.lib.ua.edu, were the only other support necessary for this to work. Whenever a file must be moved, the database is updated, and the persistent URL continues to work. In this fashion, we may enter URLs into metadata, webpages, online catalogs, etc., and never have to change them.
This table tracks born digital content such as Electronic Theses and Dissertations, which may have embargoes on web delivery which must be tracked and supported. Fields here include the identifier (id_2009), first and last name of the primary author, collection number (collnum), datestamp entered, title, the date the content should be made available (dateAvailable, in form yyyy-mm-dd), and exceptions.
This table is designed to capture the type of format an file is in, a URL to information on that format, the quality of the capture, and the version of the format. For example, a TIFF version 6.0 file captured at 600 dpi would have a URL entered from the Unified Digital Format Registry ([[1]] similar to this one now available via the PRONOM Digital Format Registry: [[2]].
By maintaining a record of the current format, version, and quality of each file, in a database, we can easily identify and locate all files in need of migration or emulation in the face of approaching obsolescence.
There is a good chance that this table will be combined with the md5sums database tables.
Here we track when content was rotated through the tagging software. For more on this see User_tagging
Same thing for rotation through transcription software. For more on this see User_transcription
Here we track what was tagged, so it need not be rotated back through. For more on this see User_tagging
Same thing for success in transcription collection. For more on this see User_transcription
This is the list of tags, what they were applied to, and how many times a particular tag was used for a particular item.
To find out how relevant it is to have 3 transcriptions for an item, we need to know how many pages that item has. If it has 600 pages, only 3 transcriptions (one per page) is not very successful. Here we collect info on how many pages items have within u0002 and u0003. For more on this see User_transcription
Information extracted using Google API is stored here for particular item locations. This enables us to apply the same lat/long for other items with the same location without calling the API again and again and again (there are limits on calls, as well as server overhead.
This works with the geocode table, indicating the item location for each of the items in the database. The locationID here corresponds to the locationID in the geocode table.
This table is not yet in use, and will likely expand. The purpose is to track which donors have provided support for digitization, processing, or donated content, and be able to link to their website and use a logo for the display of content.
itemSums This table contains the identifier, file name, file path, current MD5 checksum, byte size, number of times modified, date of first entry, and a notes field.
modified If a file was indeed modified (in which case that would have been indicated in the itemSums table), then there will be an entry here for each modification. The timestamp of the change, the identifier, filename, previous MD5 checksum, the byte size of the original file, the reason modified, and by whom are recorded here.
Dates that the files are verified are stored in the checkscripts database described in Tracking_automated_scripts

In Toronto, owing to the marvels of artificial procreation, a mother who qualifies for the seniors menu at Denny's is raising a 19-month-old toddler.
The now 57-year-old postmenopausal woman's unnatural conception — made possible using eggs purchased from a much younger donor — raised eyebrows when reported last year, even among doctors in a field that routinely pushes the biological limits of childbearing.
But now, as more older women pursue motherhood, Canada's fertility doctorsand ethicists are asking: when is old too old?
Egg donation has made it possible for virtually any woman with a functioning uterus, regardless of age, to carry a baby using eggs from a younger woman.
But a new Canadian guideline under development for women of "advanced maternal age" seeking infertility treatments will explore whether it's safe — or ethical — to impregnate a woman well into her 50s, or beyond.
There are no legal upper age limits for egg donation recipients in Canada. The nation's for-profit fertility industry says women aged 50 to 60 who conceive using donor eggs (or, if the egg is fertilized, donor embryos) can achieve "acceptable outcomes," based on the limited science that exists, although they are at slightly higher risk of pre-eclampsia (rapid and potentially life-threatening high blood pressure) and gestational diabetes, especially so after age 55.
In the U.S., the American Society for Reproductive Medicine says egg or embryo donation should be discouraged after 55, and "discouraged or denied" in any woman over 50 with underlying health issues that could increase pregnancy-related risks.
Canada's fertility doctors, however, say that ultimately they might not agree on any specific age cutoff.
"It's a complicated topic," said Dr. Jeffrey Roberts, president-elect of the Canadian Fertility and Andrology Society and medical director for the Pacific Centre for Reproductive Medicine in Burnaby, B.C.
"We're getting requests and situations where ethically, we're a little bit torn."
He's aware of one case in B.C. involving a couple in their 60s that wants to have a baby using an egg donor and surrogate mother.
Theoretically, both parents could enter a nursing home before their child starts high school.
Dalhousie University bioethicist and feminist philosopher Angel Petropanagos says the argument against older mothers, especially, runs deep. Critics have described postmenopausal mothers as "gross, unnatural and selfish," Petropanagos wrote last year on the website, Impact Ethics (impactethics.ca) — "bad" mothers who are flaunting "the social norms surrounding motherhood — where the good mother is construed as young, beautiful, energetic and selfless."
"There's a lot more social disapproval, it seems, against older mothers than older fathers," Petropanagos said in an interview.
Others argue advances in assisted conception are simply levelling the reproductive playing field between men and women, she said. In an era of reproductive freedom, the argument holds, why should women be denied what has long been the purview of men, if the science now makes pregnancy past the natural dictates of menopause possible?
This much is true: while still small, the number of babies born to women 50 and older in Canada is increasing. From 2010 to 2012, there were 145 live births to women aged 50 and older, compared with 15 such births from 2001 to 2003, according to Statistics Canada.
No one can say absolutely that each of those births involved a donor egg. However, there are very few "own egg" pregnancies reported past the age of 47, even when helped along with in vitro fertilization, said Dr. Ari Baratz, chair of the Ontario Medical Association's reproductive biology section. By the time a woman reaches 44, greater than 95 per cent of her remaining eggs are abnormal.
Baratz is a reproductive endocrinologist and infertility specialist at CReATe Fertility Centre in Toronto — the same clinic that helped the Toronto woman give birth in 2014 at age 56 using donor eggs and donor sperm. (She was 55 at the time of embryo transfer.)
Baratz, who was not the woman's doctor, said it's believed she and her son are doing well. "We have not heard otherwise."
It's not known whether she is the oldest Canadian woman to deliver after donor egg IVF. In Canada, clinics aren't obligated to collect or report such statistics. In India, 72-year-old Daljinkder Kaur, who gave birth in May to a healthy boy using anonymous donor eggs, may now hold the world title.
The previous record was held by Maria del Carmen Bousada de Lara of Barcelona, Spain, a single mother who delivered twin boys in 2006, one week before her 67th birthday. She died three years later of stomach cancer, leaving her sons orphaned.
Baratz said women over 50 are seeking assisted reproduction for different reasons. For some, "life got in the way and they decided to make babies later," he said. "Some are in new relationships and they're trying to build a child that's unique to that relationship." Others are single.
Many Canadian clinics follow the U.S. cutoff, Baratz said. Others use a combined age formula — for example, the couple's combined ages can't exceed 110. "If you look at the LGBT community as well, we have to be consistent," Baratz said. "We want some kind of caregiver for this child. Even if it's same-sex females or same-sex males, you'd like to know that at least one of them is going to be around longer."
Some are in new relationships and they're trying to build a child that's unique to that relationship
In Quebec, most fertility clinics draw the line closer to the natural age of menopause (51 or 52), provided the woman is in good health, said Dr. Neal Mahutte, medical director of the Montreal Fertility Centre.
"Ultimately I think we all recognize that the concept of stopping treatment at a certain point makes sense," he said. "The tricky part is where, exactly, to draw the line, given that any cutoff, no matter where it's drawn, is on some level arbitrary."
One challenge, he said, is that it's not inconceivable a postmenopausal woman who undergoes in vitro fertilization using donor eggs could end up with more embryos than needed, freeze the surplus and then return later, when she's even older, to use her leftover embryos.
"I don't know if that happened in the Toronto case," Mahutte said. "But it's not uncommon in egg donation cycles to generate multiple, high quality embryos."
Baratz and others said older mothers can have a greater level of maturity, patience and tolerance than younger mothers.
But prominent bioethicist Arthur Caplan argues too many older would-be parents are being deluded by the "television optimism" of aging and the messages telegraphed by celebrities such as the newly pregnant Janet Jackson, who turned 50 in May. "Of course, what isn't said is, 'I have seven nannies and a chauffeur,'" said Caplan, head of medical ethics at New York University's Langone Medical Center. (Jackson has not said if she used IVF or donor eggs, but according to fertility experts, the monthly chances of natural conception drops to below one in 1,000 by age 45.)
While people are living longer, they don't necessarily avoid the ravages of old age. "The odds are that you will encounter a health problem that is very significant over 65," Caplan said.

In addition, older couples seeking donor egg IVF also tend to choose to use the male partner's sperm. However, growing evidence is linking advanced paternal age (50 or more) with chromosomal abnormalities such as Down syndrome, as well as an increased risk of autism and schizophrenia.
Caplan says he isn't against parenting by older people. "I know it happens. And for men, they can get things to happen in the bedroom at any age, and you aren't going to police them," he said.
"But it's basically the principle of, protect the best interests of the child," Caplan said.
"Don't put the child in a home where the parents won't live long enough to raise him."

Charlie Sheen's spokesman says the actor supports a decision to remove his twin sons from the care of his ex-wife and have them live temporarily with another ex-wife, actress Denise Richards.
Larry Solters says in a statement that Sheen will participate in court proceedings related to ex-wife Brooke Mueller's custody of their four-year-old sons.
Celebrity website RadarOnline.com reported on Friday that the twins were removed from Mueller's custody by the Department of Children and Family Services.
The agency's investigations are confidential, and Mueller and Richards' representatives have declined comment.
Sheen and Richards have two daughters from their marriage, which ended in 2006.
Solters says Sheen knows that Richards will provide his sons "a safe and in a stable, loving environment".
Mueller and Sheen were married in 2008 and divorced in 2011.

Pre-Sequester Pink Slips? Duncan Stretches Impact on Teachers
(WASHINGTON) -- At the White House Wednesday, Education Secretary Arne Duncan sounded the alarm over looming automatic cuts to the nation's school system, warning that as many as 40,000 teachers could lose their jobs with some layoffs already under way.
It's an eye-opening claim, but one not entirely supported by facts.
"Over the next, you know, month or two, you'll see lots of pink slips go out," Duncan said. "That's starting," he added, "it's still really early on."
The secretary told reporters Wednesday that in "a couple districts," including Kanawha County, W.Va., Title I and Head Start teachers have already received the bad news that they will be out of work. It's a claim he first made publicly Sunday on CBS' Face the Nation.
"There are literally teachers now who are getting pink slips, who are getting notices that they can't come back this fall," he said at the time.
Experts agree that widespread teacher layoffs could eventually become reality if the package of deep spending cuts known as sequester is allowed to hold. But they say there are not many signs a wave of pink slips has begun.
Kanawha County officials told ABC News that no pink slips have been issued this year because of budgetary issues or the sequester, and that no contingency plans have been drawn up in case the automatic cuts do take hold.
"We're just waiting to hear whether these cuts go through and how much money we'll lose," said one administrator, who asked not to be identified.
Pam Padon, director of federal programs and Title I for Kanawha County public schools, told the Washington Post that "transfer notices" were sent to 104 teachers, informing them that they may have a new assignment starting next fall, and that some of those transfers could ultimately mean several people lose their jobs.
County officials, speaking on condition of anonymity to ABC News, confirmed the report, but said that those notices were not considered layoffs or pink slips and have nothing to do with sequestration.
The American Association of School Administrators has offered a similar assessment of the current state of play, saying it knows of no sequester-related layoffs among its members. The full scope of necessary layoffs won't be known until local districts assess the budgetary damage from sequester, if it takes effect, and develop plans for the coming school year, officials have said.
A spokesman for the Education Department did not respond to ABC News' request for comment on the secretary's claims. Duncan did qualify his active-layoffs claim with this: "Whether it's all sequester-related, I don't know. But there are teachers who are getting pink slips now."

Rodgers dismisses Walcott link
Brendan Rodgers has been told he has money to spend in January, but admits he faces a struggle to improve his Liverpool squad after playing down talk of a move for Theo Walcott.
Arsenal forward Walcott, who is out of contract at the end of the season, is being linked with a move to Anfield again, after Liverpool were reportedly interested in signing him last summer.
Rodgers has dismissed the Walcott link as "speculation", despite the fact that he needs to strengthen his forward line. With Fabio Borini injured and Andy Carroll on a season's loan at West Ham, Luis Suarez is Liverpool's only fit senior striker.
Rodgers will have money made available by owners Fenway Sports Group to strengthen the squad, but reckons that the mid-season transfer window offers little genuine opportunity for squad improvement.
Asked about Walcott, Rodgers said: "There's nothing to say on it. He's an Arsenal player. It's all speculation on many players at the moment. My concentration is purely on the squad that we have."
The manager, though, has acknowledged the need to strengthen in January, however difficult that may be.
He added: "We'll have funds. I'm having talks with the owners at the moment, along with our recruitment team. We know we need to reinforce the group, so that's something that's ongoing.
"The priority is getting players in the building. Our squad is very small, and very thin on the ground. The players have performed admirably up until now. They've been terrific in their mentality considering the number of games they've been playing.
"But at the moment, it's really about reinforcing the group rather than looking too much at people going the other way. January's always a difficult one. You don't get too many top, top players. Clubs will be unwilling to move on players. But we have to scour the world and country to get the types of players who are going to be available and correct for our model of play.
"Obviously, we're limited as to what we can bring in, both in terms of availability of players and financially. But there's no doubt we need to do that. So our scouting team are working very hard to identify those talents who might be available, and there's no doubt we need that support in January, and I'm very confident we'll be able to do that."

Invalid-Funds (Invaliditeitfondsen, i.e., a fund for the pensioning of disabled ministers in the Netherlands). Soon after the ministry in the Netherlands had became a full-time occupation, foundations were established for the pensioning of retired ministers and their widows (see Algemeen Emeritaatfonds and Pensioenfonds), and usually also for invalid ministers. Groningen Conference founded a separate Invalid Fund in 1917.

Inside the Private Umbilical Cord Blood Banking Business
Wall Street Journal Analysis Found Dirty Storage, Leaky Blood Samples and Firms Going Under
Before giving birth two years ago, Whitney Ferrarese went back and forth trying to decide whether to save the blood from her baby's umbilical cord, a peculiar but increasingly common American birth ritual.
Like every new parent, Ms. Ferrarese worried about the health of her firstborn. It was a long shot, but maybe stem cells from the cord blood held a miracle cure for a disease that might strike her baby in the years ahead.

Everyone has an Amazing Story!
But how do we get to hear these stories and how many amazing stories have we missed that are now lost forever?
My motivation behind this Create Your Life Story.
How often have you heard "I wish I had have recorded their Life Story Biography before they'd passed away, alas it's now too late."
I, like a lot of people love talking to others about their life. I also know people who wish they had managed to ask and capture stories from the people in their life who are no longer around.
Create Your Life Story is to help you to capture some of those stories and reap the same benefits that I've had the good fortune to discover.
The skills I learnt in producing Your Story I'm sharing with you on Create Your Life Story, so you can easily produce your own Audio Oral History using all the wonderful and relatively easy systems at our disposal in this new digital age.
Information shared with the world can be discovered and live on.
It's not possible for me to record everyone who wants their Life Story recorded but here I can show you, how to record, edit and publish a Life Story of either yourself or someone you know.
To help you to record, edit and publish.
I'm excited for you in discovering this site, I hope that I can serve your needs and enable you to gain the knowledge to achieve your own Life Story project. The rewards to you will be amazing.
I have a continuing programme of posts, podcasts and video Life Story techniques in production to assist you with new information as it develops.

In the fall of 2007, Radiohead released their seventh studio album In Rainbows as a digital download using a pay-what-you-want model. At the time, the decision blew some minds.
Pay what you want? Whatever you want? For a RADIOHEAD ALBUM??
The decision to pursue such an untested marketing move exhibited real guts on the part of the band and, more importantly, a lot of faith in their fans. By reconfiguring the transaction and empowering the customers, Radiohead managed to flip the script. Although fans were given the option of paying nothing for the new album, pre-release sales exceeded total sales from their previous album Hail to the Thief, released via traditional means.
Then again this summer, the internet was agog about comedian Louis CK's no-frills sales approach. In December of last year, CK turned heads when he bypassed a corporate release of a comedy special, instead selling it directly to viewers for $5 on his website. Then, in June he pulled a similar move: selling tickets to his upcoming tour directly to fans, rather than through Ticketmaster (which can occasion a 40% service charge). The result of both experiments was stunning: CK made over $1 million dollars in just 10 days from his comedy special and bypassed $4.5 million in ticket sales in two days.
But would this work for books? (So goes the question in my head, always). Perhaps so! According to a story published this week in The Guardian, a pay-what-you-want experiment in eBook bundling is turning heads and making serious cash. Put together by Humble Bundle, Inc., the Humble ebook Bundle is a collection of 13 eBooks sold at a price determined by the purchaser, but of at least 1 cent. Customers who pay more than the average price — currently sitting at around $14 — unlock extra content (more books, in this case). In another interesting twist, customers are given the option of dividing the money they spend between several recipients as they see fit, including the authors, Humble Bundle, and a variety of charities such as Child's Play Charity, the Electronic Frontier Foundation, and/or the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America.
And how about the content backing up such a good idea? Surprise, surprise, it's great stuff! The bundle includes work from contemporary sci-fi greats such as Neil Gaiman, Cory Doctorow, and John Scalzi as well as up-and-comers like Lauren Beukes, Paolo Bacigalupi, John Scalzi and Kelly Link.
Sales of the bundle are astounding. In just two weeks, the bundle has made over $1.1 million dollars, with over 80,000 bundles sold at an average price of $14.18. These sales figures are staggering (Lauren Beukes points out that 80,000 copies is "New York Times bestseller-level sales.") The response to such a radical sales model is heartening.
Pay-what-you-want and direct sales models spell exciting possibilities for the publishing industry. Could a sales plan like this become more regular? How could bundling young authors and bestsellers benefit both? Let's hear your thoughts on how this could change the game.

The Daily Update: Poikovsky and Saratov
The Karpov tournament in Poikovsky finished with some more short draws, but also a couple of wins, one of which was very important for the final standings. Etienne Bacrot defeated Zahar Efimenko - with Black, no less - and caught up with Sergey Karjakin to tie for first place. (I wonder if they used tiebreaks to separate them: maybe fewest moves per draw would be fitting for this event.) Both players wound up on +2: two wins and seven draws, to be precise.
Meanwhile, Alexander Morozevich keeps putting on a show in the Governor's Cup in Saratov. After four straight wins he was finally held to a second draw today by Alexei Shirov, but just barely. Their game was incredibly sharp and flashy, and certainly worth your having a look. With 5/6 (TPR: 2980) Morozevich leads Peter Leko, Evgeny Alekseev and Evgeny Tomashevsky by a point and a half (and everyone else there by even more).


text: You should like it if you like thin necks. It is my favorite SE next to my new Tremonti Custom which has the same neck, but without the extra access to all of the frets. I play the 24 and the Tremonti more than my SG which cost 3X more. I know what you mean about waiting, I had to do it three times already for all of my SEs. Now I am waiting for my 408 MT to come into the same shop.

Gus Kenworthy Reacts to Gay Marine Winning Ala. House Seat with Thirsty Tweet
Neil Rafferty, an openly gay Marine, won the race for Alabama's House seat in District 54 Tuesday with an overwhelming 90% of the vote. Many are lauding him for his victory — even Olympic skier Gus Kenworthy.
The athlete took to Twitter Wednesday to respond to the news over the hunky Marine's win.
"I have another seat for him," he wrote, adding a bearded man face emoji.
Of course, the tweet got lots of attention, including over 5,000 likes and several comments.
Kenworthy made headlines earlier this week when he urged fans to vote Tuesday with...an enticing offer.

Russell Schabel clearly did not become a CFO so he could sit in a corner office all day. At Philpott Rubber Co., a 123-year-old company that, among other things, provides polymeric fluids in the Marcellus and Utica shale basins, Mr. Schabel regularly calls on customers. "He meets frequently not only with his financial department counterparts at our customers' facilities, but also with plant management, engineering and purchasing personnel," according to the nomination. The in-person meetings with the CFO "ensure that customers understand they have the highest level of attention," the nomination stated, and they help to personalize "what is normally a mundane interaction between the accounting groups." There's another major, protective benefit: "If, unfortunately, the customer falls on hard times, Russ' relationships ... will likely place Philpott in a position to receive more timely and accurate information regarding the customer's financial status and provide the forum for helping the customer through its problems." Five years ago, Philpott began transforming from a regional player to a global polymer services provider, and Mr. Schabel played a key role in that process. Recognizing the enormous potential of the shale market, Mr. Schabel "worked closely with Philpott's CEO to identify, secure, market and deliver a novel, environmentally friendly polymeric liquid, which is used to "cleanse' a horizontal gas or oil well after it has been hydraulically fractured," the nomination stated. To enter the shale market fully, Philpott last February formed a subsidiary, Philpott Energy and Transportation Co. (PETCO). In addition to his CFO role, Mr. Schabel serves as PETCO's vice president and general manager, overseeing marketing, sales and field operations. The nomination stated that within five months of its formation, PETCO had increased Philpott's overall sales by 12%. Philpott's growth plan "includes both organic and acquisition components," according to the nomination. As part of that, Mr. Schabel "negotiated a $5 million line of credit at extremely favorable rates, even though there is no current demand for cash." Mr. Schabel also is a member of the board of directors of the Medina County Port Authority, and is on the business advocacy committee of the Council of Smaller Enterprises.

Sheila and Reg Elliott - CTC Heart of England Member Group - Certificate of Merit
Sheila and Reg Elliott - CTC Heart of England Member Group - Certificate of Merit
Treasurer and Chairman. She was District Association president 1994-96. In two years she won the award for the rider with the most attendances and, on many others, has been within the top three.
The club magazine 'Connecting Link' currently in its 66th year, would not have continued without her stewardship as treasurer- collecting subscriptions, balancing the books, and organising distribution.
More recently Sheila has had the misfortune to suffer several accidents; each has kept her off the bike for weeks or months. Nevertheless her determination to continue cycling was undiminished and now she is fit enough to ride (and lead) rides of 50-60 miles. She is an inspiration to the whole club.
Reg has been a lifelong cyclist and is still riding 200 miles a week –targeting (and frequently achieving) 10 000 miles a year. He has been an integral part of the club –as a committee member over many years, and chairman for the last 7 years. He also served on the District Association committee for a number of years.
His enthusiasm for cycling led him to join the Cycling Oldtimers and Veteran cycling clubs. More recently he has been a regular rider with the Solihull Cycling Club and CycleSolihull initiating the Saturday Stretcher rides for local cyclists. By organising rides, social events and holidays for many of these activities he has spread the benefits of cycling far and wide leading to the recruitment of new CTC members.

I've been approached by a number of reporters asking a peculiar question. About half the time they only ask about our headliner, Richard Dawkins.
"Fort Bragg says that the people in your lineup didn't issue a Statement of Intent to them, a letter saying that they were actually coming. Why not?"
Well, they never asked for one. In fact I had never even heard of one until a reporter asked me that question. And I had been assured that our submitted packet had all the pertinent information by early January. I remained in close / constant contact with my contacts at Fort Bragg, and still never received any request of this sort.
Likewise, a close inspection of the FOIA documents regarding the evangelical Christian membership drive known as Rock the Fort – the event that we were promised equal treatment for – shows that such a request was never made to them.
Anyways, I'm sick of answering the same question at length. So to dispel this once and for all, every single Rock Beyond Belief performer has now issued a Statement of Intent.
Have a look at a few.
Richard Dawkins
I wish to put clearly on record my strong intention to attend, and speak at, the Rock Beyond Belief festival at Fort Bragg, now sadly cancelled because of (blatantly discriminatory) lack of support from the officer commanding Fort Bragg. 'Statement of intent' is putting it mildly. I was hugely looking forward to it, and it was, indeed, my main reason for travelling all the way from England, at my own expense. I also announced my intention to accept no honorarium, so keen was I to support the festival. The suggestion that the festival could not have filled a large hall is absurd. Even when talking on my own, I regularly draw enthusiastic crowds by the thousands, especially in the so-called 'bible belt' where beleaguered non-believers flock to hear somebody articulate what they have long thought privately but never felt able to speak.

Subject: Statement Of Intent
It has recently come to my attention that questions are being raised as to the seriousness of my compact with SGT Justin Griffith to perform at a concert event he was organizing at Fort Bragg for April 2nd called "Rock Beyond Belief". Please allow me to clear up any confusion by saying that I did confirm this gig with SGT Griffith, in writing, and although my usual fee to perform is around $2,000 I had also agreed in writing to waive my honorarium for the event, because the cause (equal treatment of those with divergent religious beliefs, including atheists) is one I believe in strongly. My written confirmation was sent to SGT Griffith via email on February 6th, and on February 13th I wrote a blog announcing the event to my fans online, which you can read here: http://babasword.blogspot.com/2011/02/shows-tours-vids.html. I also followed up with a newsletter that went out to my personal email list of more than 7,000 individuals, and I received many encouraging responses and expressions of interest from fans around the world. If you have any doubt about this I would be happy to show you the messages and/or send out a follow-up newsletter asking everyone on my mailing list to individually write to you via email in support of SGT Griffith and in protest of Fort Bragg's discrimination against his event on religious grounds, in clear violation of the US constitution. I was very disappointed to hear that the event was cancelled, but under the circumstances I think SGT Griffith made the right choice. [*RBB's note: we didn't really have much choice, we couldn't afford the hotel and meals after the last minute restrictions were imposed.*]
I should also add, in case anyone is foolish enough to quibble over the "official" status of email confirmation as a form of written compact or "Statement of Intent", that I currently perform more than 100 gigs per year and the majority of those events are confirmed via email with no formal contract, and never once have I canceled a gig for anything other than grave illness. Once an event has been confirmed via email and announced online and one's name has been added to the poster, it would be career suicide to treat such commitments frivolously. The music industry, like many other professions, is mostly governed by a code of honour enforced by peers with a strong interest in each others' reputation for integrity, something that is worth more than a signed contract in many spheres. I am proud to say SGT Griffith took me at my (written) word that I would be there, just like he seems to have (mistakenly) taken the word of Fort Bragg's administrators that he would receive "equal support" for his event.
At any rate, I sincerely hope SGT Griffith is able to resurrect Rock Beyond Belief at a future date, and please be assured that I will do everything in my power to attend and perform. As we say in the hip-hop world: "word is bond".

Fort Bragg
Subject: Statement Of Intent
I understand there is some question at Fort Bragg about whether I intended to appear as a speaker at the Rock Beyond Belief event formerly scheduled for April 2. I had indeed planned on coming to speak about my charitable foundation and had waived any honorarium.Since your recent press conference, members of the press are apparently asking to see "Statements of Intent" from speakers who were invited to RBB. SGT Griffith tells me he was unaware of any requests or requirements for such a document before, and we've been in constant touch since last fall.
I must say I'm a bit puzzled about the need for Statements of Intent. The FOIA documents about the evangelical Rock the Fort event make it clear that no such request was made of speakers for that concert. I'll help dispel the misconception that I was not planning to come to the event by publicizing this on my blog and elsewhere.
Please consider this email my "Statement of Intent." I still remain open for a possible autumn rescheduling of Rock Beyond Belief.
Thank you,
Dale McGowan

Spoonboy (David Combs)
To whom it may concern:
Please accept this email message as my Statement of Intent. I fully intended to appear at the Rock Beyond Belief festival. I'd gone as far as producing two promo youtube videos which you can view here:
Justin never asked me to write a Statement of Intent, as it is my understanding he was never instructed to do so. Had I been asked I would have gladly written. We'd been corresponding on the subject for months.
After looking over the FOIA documents about Rock the Fort, it's clear that the Evangelical Christians had no such requirement. I do intend to write about this on my band's website and spread the word in other venues.
I hope this helps to clarify my intentions with April 2nd's now defunct Rock Beyond Belief, and I still remain open for a possible autumn date.

Jeffrey Lewis & the Junkyard
To Whom It May Concern,
if there has been any doubt as to whether my band intended to appear at the Rock Beyond Belief festival, I must say that in my ten years of touring as a musician I've never heard of anything known as a "statement of intent" – I was asked if my band would play the festival and I told the organizers that we would. Please consider this to be our "statement of intent," and know that we did indeed intend to appear. I hope this eliminates any confusions.
Jeffrey Lewis & The Junkyard
Justin Griffith's note: Jeffrey is underplaying how much this experience really screwed him over. The entire band was scattered across the country, and they had to make flight arrangements ahead of time and book a supporting mini tour just to make this work. He's out $400 in air fare alone, and left unbooked and without a place to stay on Saturday April 2nd, the linchpin of the mini-tour they put together just for us. Please go see the shows, and let Jeffrey Lewis and the Junk Yard (3 people total) stay at your house afterwards! They are cool like that. Very DIY.

We had funding for the travel for all of our guests, in the form of a $10,000 pledge from the Stiefel Freethought Foundation. However, this pledge was conditional on the event actually happening. Luckily, they were extremely understanding and still donated $1000 to clean up the messy fallout from having to cancel the event [due to the last minute crippling restrictions]. This certainly doesn't even come close to really compensating Jeffrey, or the others that lent us their talent and schedule. Much of the true costs will never be recuperated.
So please, if you can – check out the names on the lineup. Buy their newest books. Download their new album off i-tunes. Or go see them live.
If you have 30 seconds, you can help Rock Beyond Belief out by signing this petition. It got a late start, well after we kicked off our 'How you can help effort' – so please sign it. It actually has been generating responses from politicians. Some have been quite positive, and others comically negative. Either way, we could use the help!

Seattle Mariners
Mariners' attack regresses in 4-1 loss to Phillies
It's been a while since the Seattle Mariners served up something that resembles the back end of a dog's dinner, so maybe this was overdue.
As a once-in-a-great-while thing, Monday's 4-1 loss to struggling Philadelphia should be easy to flush from the system.
Should be, anyway, for a club that views itself as a legitimate postseason contender.
"It was one of those games," second baseman Robinson Cano said, "where even when you got your pitch right down the middle, you missed it.
"There were some pitches over the plate, and we missed them, popped out or hit a ground ball. Tomorrow is another day."
A prime example came in the eighth inning when the Mariners finally showed some life. They had runners at second and third with one out after an RBI double by Dustin Ackley.
Cano and Kendrys Morales — "our guys," as manager Lloyd McClendon said — came to the plate against reliever Ken Giles. Both struck out swinging. And that pretty much was that.
"We just didn't get it done tonight," McClendon noted.
This one was night soil almost from the beginning.
Rookie lefty Roenis Elias (9-10) returned to the Mariners rotation after a 10-day sabbatical at Triple-A Tacoma and battled command issues in throwing 90 pitches in just four innings.
Elias walked a career-high six, including two in the third inning before yielding a two-out RBI double to Marlon Byrd.
(That would be the same Marlon Byrd, by the way, who wouldn't waive his no-trade clause to the Mariners a few weeks ago unless they agreed to pick up his $8 million for 2016.)
"I was a little erratic with my fastball," Elias said, "but I felt good. It was just a baseball thing."
The loss dropped the Mariners (67-57) into a tie with idle Detroit for the AL's final wild-card spot. They also fell 61/2 games behind first-place Los Angeles in the American League West.
Elias dismissed any connection between his control issues and his time away from the big league club.
"No, no, no," he said. "That was not a factor. It was just baseball. It just wasn't my day."
The Phillies surged to a 4-0 lead in the fifth inning against reliever Dominic Leone when light-hitting Andres Blanco hit the fourth homer of his seven-year career and his first since July 1, 2011.
"He just left a slider in the middle of the plate," McClendon said. "The kid (Blanco) put a pretty good swing on it."
Blanco drove the ball into the right-field seats after Leone allowed a double and a walk.
Meanwhile, a Mariners attack that had, encouragingly, averaged more than five runs a game since the July 31 nonwaiver trade deadline, turtled against Phillies right-hander Jerome Williams.
And, yes, that's the same Jerome Williams cast off earlier this season by American League West also-rans Texas and Houston after spending the previous three years with the Angels.
Now, though, Williams has a new catcher in Carlos Ruiz.
"My game plan wasn't working this year," Williams admitted. "That's why I'm on my third team. We're just using the same weapons, but moving the ball around. With Chooch behind the plate, I trust him.
"I was hard-headed before. I wanted to do it my way. My way got me off two teams."
Williams (1-0) carried a three-hit shutout into the eighth before exiting after hitting Chris Taylor to start the inning.
"He pitched (well)," Cano said, "but we also got ourselves out. We chased pitches. ... You're not always going to win the battle. This was his day. You've got to give him the credit."
Giles replaced Williams with Taylor at first and things finally got interesting. Giles gave up a pinch single to Endy Chavez and Ackley's RBI double. Ackley had three of the Mariners' six hits.
But Giles then squelched the comeback by striking out Cano and Morales before Jonathan Papelbon closed out Williams' victory with a scoreless ninth for his 29th save.

How to Deal with Side Effects of Prostate Cancer Treatment
The possible side effects of prostate cancer treatment cause most men to worry. The following information can help you talk to your doctor about overcoming and controlling the side effects that may accompany treatment for prostate cancer:
Impotence: If your doctor recommends prostatectomy surgery, ask him if nerve-sparing surgery, which can often preserve the ability to have erections, is an option for you. Also, if you do experience impotency after treatment, talk to your doctor about good solutions (such as Viagra, vacuum pumps, injections, and penile implants).
Incontinence: Your doctor can prescribe drugs that will relieve you of the constant feeling that you have to go — right now! You can also practice bladder exercises such as Kegels, which strengthen your bladder muscle. If the problem is severe, surgery to implant an artificial bladder sphincter can help resolve it. This should get you urinating normally again.
Fatigue: If the problem is fatigue (and often, it is!) make sure you get at least seven hours of sleep a night. Also, a simple exercise regimen or regular walks can counteract tiredness. If fatigue stems from cancer-fighting drugs, ask your doctor about medications to combat your fatigue.
Irritability, mood swings, and depression: Overcome emotional problems with therapy and support groups. Often your doctor can prescribe medications that can help.

As outlined in the Dec. 31 Federal Register, The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) plans to complete or begin 14 research projects within the next two to three years, "with the goal of strengthening the sewage sludge use and disposal program."
EPA says that it will participate in and use outside research as appropriate. Several of the projects will involve Water Environment Research Foundation (WERF), either through completed, ongoing, or planned research, according to the notice.
Two of the U.S. EPA projects--"Methods Development, Optimization, and Validation for Microbial Pollutants in Sewage Sludge" and "Assess the Quality and Utility of Data, Tools, and Methodologies to Conduct Microbial Risk Assessments on Pathogens"--refer to work EPA is conducting with WERF on microbial risk assessment. That work encompasses the two-part WERF project "A Dynamic Model to Assess Microbial Health Risks Associated with Beneficial Uses of Biosolids" (completed; stock no. 98REM1 and ongoing; project no. 98-REM-1a). Ultimately, this work will develop and implement representative risk assessments for exposure to microbial pathogens associated with exposure to biosolids.
Two other EPA projects will involve workshops to be coordinated with WERF. The first, "Participate in an Incident Tracking Workshop," responds to the highest ranked project to come out of the Biosolids Research Summit--a rapid response system to investigate reported health effects from land application of biosolids. The second, "Conduct Exposure Measurement Workshop," will aim to identify exposure-related research priorities.
In response to the NRC recommendations, EPA will include a variety of stakeholders in the research process--as indicated by the project "Improve Stakeholder Involvement and Risk Communication." EPA indicates that it will use WERF research on public partnering to identify ways to expand the use of information sharing in various research projects. Specifically, EPA refers to one WERF project, "Biosolids: Understanding Public Perception and Participation" (ongoing; project no. 00-PUM-5). This project provides guidance on how to incorporate stakeholder priorities by sharing lessons learned. The final report from this study should be available by the end of 2004.

Two clusters where each cluster is both the primary cluster for some services and the secondary cluster for other services.
An Oracle Solaris Cluster resource group that is configured by the user to make an application highly available in an Oracle Solaris Cluster configuration. An application resource group can be configured into a protection group to make it disaster tolerant and highly available.
A cluster that supports data replication between geographically separate nodes within one cluster. The maximum distance between nodes is limited.
The copying of data from data storage devices in a primary cluster to data storage devices in a secondary cluster. Through data replication, the secondary cluster has a recent copy of the data on the primary cluster. The primary and secondary clusters can be geographically separated.
In a campus cluster, the two data storage devices are on the same cluster. In a geographically separated cluster that runs the Geographic Edition framework, the two data storage devices are on different clusters.
A data replication component is the replication object that the Geographic Edition framework monitors and manages. Types of data replication components include Availability Suite device groups, Oracle Data Guard broker configurations, Oracle GoldenGate, Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance replicated projects, and EMC Symmetrix Remote Data Facility device groups.
An Oracle Solaris Cluster resource that monitors the state and status of data replication.
The ability of a system to restore an application on a secondary cluster when the primary cluster fails. Disaster tolerance is based on data replication and failover.
An error scenario in which two clusters in a protection group act as the primary cluster. In a disconnected partnership, the system administrator must execute a takeover, making one cluster the primary cluster and the other cluster the secondary cluster.
A signal that is emitted from a cluster and detected by its partner cluster. Heartbeats enable a cluster to monitor the presence and failure of its partner cluster.
A set of protection groups that is preconfigured for migration as a group between predetermined sets of clusters, called sites.
A primary cluster where an application is not running and data is not being replicated to a secondary cluster. Alternatively, a secondary cluster where data is not being replicated from the primary cluster.
A relationship between two geographically separated clusters that are installed with the Oracle Solaris Cluster software and Geographic Edition software. These two clusters monitor each other's health by exchanging heartbeats.
A cluster that is in a cluster partnership, that hosts the application resources, and that holds the primary copy of replicated data. Protection groups define whether a cluster is primary or secondary. For example, the primary cluster of one protection group can also be the secondary cluster for another protection group.
An entity that manages application resource groups for services that are protected from disaster. Clusters in a protection group must be defined as partners. A cluster can have different roles in different protection groups. For example, the primary cluster of one protection group can also be the secondary cluster for another protection group.
A protection group has the following characteristics:
A set of resource groups and resources for services that are protected from disaster
Device group entries
A primary cluster that hosts the protection group
A secondary cluster that is able to host the protection group
A data replication service
An Oracle Solaris Cluster resource group. A resource group can be an application resource group or a replication resource group.
An application that runs on several nodes of one cluster to create a single, logical service. If a node that is running a scalable application fails, failover does not occur. The application continues to run on the other nodes of the cluster.
A cluster in a cluster partnership that is capable of hosting a protection group. The secondary cluster receives mirrored data from the primary cluster. If the primary cluster fails, the secondary cluster can become the new primary cluster.
A secondary cluster can be associated with a protection group. If a primary cluster fails, the protection group is migrated to a secondary cluster. Protection groups define whether a cluster is primary or secondary. For example, the primary cluster of one protection group can also be the secondary cluster for another protection group.
A node that is in a cluster, but does not host the application services. If the primary node fails, the secondary node becomes the new primary node.
A location that houses one or more clusters that run the Geographic Edition framework. To participate in the disaster recovery environment, a cluster must have a partner cluster on a geographically separated site.
A cluster with a minimal configuration that acts as a secondary cluster. A standby cluster can take over from the primary cluster in an emergency situation, but supports a reduced service only. A standby cluster is a low-cost alternative to a secondary cluster.
The planned migration of services from the primary cluster to the secondary cluster.
Unlike a takeover, the primary cluster is connected to the secondary cluster during a switchover. During a switchover, the primary cluster is connected to the secondary cluster and coordinates the migration of services with the secondary cluster. This coordination enables the data replication to be completed and ensures that services can be transferred from the primary cluster to the secondary cluster with minimal loss or corruption of data.
The emergency migration of services from the primary cluster to the secondary cluster. A system administrator can initiate a takeover to recover from a disaster scenario.
Unlike a switchover, the primary cluster is not connected to the secondary cluster during a takeover. Therefore, the primary cluster cannot coordinate with the secondary cluster to migrate the services. Because of this lack of coordination, the risk of data loss and data corruption is higher than with a switchover. During a takeover, dedicated recovery procedures are used to minimize data loss and data corruption.

F1's chief muppet Bernie Ecclestone made the news in business circles for buying a Gulfstream G650 jet for $65 million then re-selling it for $72 million. And that makes me think, new cars just aren't expensive enough.
I mean, the most expensive new car you can order now is one of the McLaren P1/Porsche 918/Ferrari LaFerrari trio. None of those even break the $2 million barrier. A Lamborghini Veneno cost more than $4 million, but all of those are accounted for.
There is clearly a small market of billionaires who can spend $72 million dollars on a vehicle. The problem is there's no new car in the world today that can justify that price (though classic cars come close with the $52 million Ferrari 250 GTO).
So my question is what would a $72 million car look like? What would it have that would make it worth its price?

The message we want from the graphic is that we currently serve the power and gas markets in the US/North America, but there is potential to collect the same data in other markets and commodities.
We have an existing graphic at:
We need to have it recreated to fit into the placeholder on this page:

Somewhere During Moving Merchandise And Product Placement, There Was An NBA Slam Dunk Event
By Barry Janoff, Executive Editor
February 27, 2011: How low can the NBA go? Apparently as high as a Blake Griffin slam dunk.
Turns out there was more than product placement and marketing partner overkill involved when Blake Griffin won the 2011 Sprite Slam Dunk contest during All-Star Weekend presented by State Farm. While the Crenshaw Select Choir sang "I Believe I Can Fly" at midcourt, and with now ex-teammate Baron Davis tossing him a pass from inside the car, Griffin jumped over the hood of a Kia Optima – yes, the official car of the NBA – to impress the judges.
Griffin, who is the leading candidate for ROY honors and also has a new marketing campaign with Subway, impressed the executives at Kia, as well. Footage of the dunk is now the nucleus of a national TV commercial, and the shot of Griffin in mid-air is being used in supporting marketing via print and Internet.
"Blake Griffin's incredible feat during NBA All-Star 2011 was anything but average and we are proud the all-new Kia Optima played a role in his Sprite Slam Dunk championship," Michael Sprague, vp-marketing and communications for Kia Motors America, said in a statement. "Kia Motors is the official automotive Partner of the NBA and we are tremendous fans of the game of basketball."
Kia's 30-second TV spot using footage of Griffin's dunk from the 2011 Sprite Slam Dunk Contest broke over this past weekend during NBA coverage on ESPN and TNT. It will run throughout the season with the tag: "Not your average dunk. Not your average midsize sedan."
"This new spot underscores the fact that the Optima is not your average midsize sedan and allows us to share the excitement of Griffin's historic feat."
"This new spot underscores the fact that the Optima is not your average midsize sedan and allows us to share the excitement of Griffin's historic feat with our fellow fans," said Sprague.
Griffin's feat on TNT was part of the most watched NBA All-Star Saturday Night presented by State Farm in the event's 26-year history. Following the Slam Dunk contest, Griffin autographed the 2011 Kia Optima over which he dunked, and the sedan will be provided to one of Griffin's charitable interests, according to Kia.

This is a website started by my sister and I, to show our love of cooking great food. We both love to cook so we figured we'd share one of our favorite things with the world. To make it fun we picked an ingredient that everyone loves, that's cheese of course! We incorporate cheese into every recipe we create, and each recipe is either an invention of our own, or has been passed down from our family. It can be any type of cheese, it just has to have cheese and of course it will be amazing! Hope you like it, we sure do.
