Genius Tweets for Pot Delivery, Gets 'Awesome' Response From Police
They say social media is a great way to get a job. It's also a great way to lose one.
A man in Toronto named Sunith Baheerathan made the boneheaded mistake of going on Twitter and asking his followers if someone could bring some pot to him at Mr. Lube, where he worked as a mechanic. Unfortunately for Baheerathan, local police saw his tweet and responded.
The police's comments were retweeted nearly 4,000 times and when all was said and done Sunith Baheerathan was fired. He tried to explain his actions on Twitter to no avail by saying he was only kidding and that he was disappointed the cops weren't focusing on more dangerous criminals. He may have sensed he was fighting a losing battle because he eventually deleted his account.
— Mr. Lube (@mrlube) August 14, 2013
Let's hope Baheerathan exercises a little more caution when he starts networking on LinkedIn in the hopes of getting some work and the only smoke he deals with on the job come from overheated cars.

All bar one of F1's 13 teams have agreed not to use KERS in 2010.
This comes after the 2010 F1 rules published by the FIA yesterday indicated they may continue to use the energy recovery technology next year.
Representatives of all 13 teams – the FOTA eight plus the previously suspended Force India and Williams, and the three newcomers Manor, Campos Meta 1 and USF1 – attended a FOTA Technical Working Group meeting in Valencia yesterday. (See here for a list of representatives)
All bar one of the teams are believed to have committed to not running KERS in 2010. The decision will now go to the F1 Commission to be considered.
It is not known which of the teams opposed the decision. Earlier this year Ferrari's Stefano Domenicali criticised BMW for standing in the way of an agreement that could have prevented KERS being introduced. Although they are set to quit F1 at the end of the year, BMW is understood to have submitted an application for next season in the hope of selling their team, and they are still listed on the FOTA website.

Alston Adams was a character.
I didn't know him very well, but he was a hard guy to forget, and not only because he'd usually be the only black guy at a meeting of Montreal bloggers.
Adams had been fighting cancer for years, and blogging about it. Even though it was a serious medical condition with a depressing prognosis and no cure, he still kept going, showing up at the monthly YULblog meetings with his razor-sharp wit in tow. It could catch you off-guard, but it was endearing. With the energy and arrogance he showed, you'd think cancer wouldn't stand a chance.
It took a long time, but cancer won the battle. Adams died yesterday, according to his friends, who have been flooding his Facebook wall. He was 35.
Since they knew him better than I did, I'll point to the eulogies from his fellow bloggers:
- Alison Cummins
- Frank Hashimoto
- Ed Hawco
- Martine Pagé
- Jack Ruttan
- Shatnerian
- Patrick Tanguay
- Zura Rants
A while ago, Adams participated in a documentary called Wrong Way to Hope, about young adults with cancer. The trailer (released almost a year ago) doesn't do justice to his personality, which was far more animated (this bit from the deleted scenes is much more representative).
There's some ironic timing here: His death comes just as the film is coming out. The premiere was two weeks ago, and the Canadian premiere is next week.
The monthly YULblog meeting is Wednesday, Oct. 6, 8pm at La Quincaillerie, 980 Rachel East. Expect Adams to be on the tips of tongues of those present.
UPDATE: Here's daily mugshots of Adams until Sept. 13, three weeks before he died.

TAMPA, Fla. — After nearly a year away, a Florida soldier was finally able to meet his baby girl and the pictures are everything.
Cody Shou flew into Tampa International Airport on Oct. 24 after being overseas for more than 10 months.
Waiting for him as soon as he got off his flight was his wife, Jayde, and daughter, Kenlyn, who was born while her dad was still deployed.
Olive & Birch Photography was on-hand to capture the sweet meeting, and the pictures speak for themselves.
This story was originally published by Emily McCain at WFTS.

Our goal is to prepare dedicated and caring leaders for the Church
Come and See!
St. Joseph's Seminary offers a graduate theological program to qualified candidates for the permanent diaconate, lay men and women, men and women in consecrated life, and clergy who wish to deepen their understanding of the Catholic faith through systematic study, or who are called to serve the Church in roles of leadership.
St. Joseph's offers two master's degree programs: Master of Arts in Theology and Master of Arts in Catholic Philosophical Studies. In addition, the Seminary offers two Post-master's Certificates: Sacred Scripture and Dogmatic Theology, and a Post-Baccalaureate Certificate in Theology. Qualified auditors and non-degree students are welcome.
St. Joseph's Seminary was founded in 1896 for the formation of men for the priesthood. Since 1977, St. Joseph's Seminary has offiered degrees to lay men and women, men and women in consecrated life, and clergy for the purpose of preparing future Catholic leaders. To fulfill this vision, the Institute of Religious Studies was established in 1993 to offer the Master of Arts in Religious Studies and two Post-Masters Certificates. Over seven hundred students have earned a master's degree from St. Joseph's, many of whom continue to serve the Church in their parish, school, and catechetical ministry.
In the fall of 2011, Timothy Cardinal Dolan, Bishop Nicholas DiMarzio, and Bishop William Murphy agreed to collaborate in the education and formation of seminarians and lay leaders in the Catholic Church. Therefore, new graduate programs have been introduced. St. Joseph's Seminary builds on its rich tradition and now offers a Master of Arts in Theology, a Master of Arts in Catholic Philosophical Studies, two Post-Masters or Graduate Certificates in Sacred Scripture and Dogmatic Theology, and a Post-Baccalaureate Certificate in Theology. Classes are held at the main campus of St. Joseph's Seminary in Yonkers, as well as at the Long Island extension site / additional location of the Seminary of Immaculate Conception in Huntington, where both programs have been well established. We also offer classes at the Seminary House of Formation in Douglaston. Every site is equipped with video technology to link classes across our four locations in addition to the traditional face to face classes.
Please visit the MySJS Welcome Page for more details on the application process.
For Applicants interested in taking classes primarily at the Yonkers or Somers sites, please contact Dr. Donna Eschenauer at (914) 367-8280 or by email: [email protected]
For applicants interested in taking classes primarily at the Huntington or Douglaston sites, please contact Dean Christine Hammill-Cregan at (631) 423-0483, ext. 130 or by email: [email protected]

Here is a 'Management Makeover' recipe to improve organisational culture and performance – fast.
- Significantly increase the quality, quantity and frequency of communication throughout the organisation. Do this through effective 121s, team meetings, project meetings and 'skip level' meetings. Train people to make these meetings REALLY work. Make sure that the communication regime works both ways – that managers listen as well as they talk.
- Significantly increase the quality, quantity and frequency of feedback in the organisation. Train everyone how to give, receive and act on feedback. Train managers how to escalate feedback if it is not acted on effectively. Once everyone knows how their performance is perceived, what is working well and what needs further development, they will start to develop – fast. Make feedback a part of every day work – not a quarterly event!
- Train every manager to coach every member of their team, every week, to improve their performance. Use coaching to establish learning firmly in the workplace and focus it on providing a better service. A weekly coaching routine provides a great tempo to learning and performance improvement. Train managers to use coaching for performance improvement – helping good people to become great. However also equip them to coach under-performers – if necessary as part of a formal performance process.
- Train managers to delegate prodigiously. Train them to use delegation as a tool to provide opportunities for those who are hungry to learn and develop their contribution to the organisation. Use delegation, supported by coaching, feedback and great communication to significantly increase the capacity of your organisation.
Communication, Feedback, Coaching and Delegation. Managers who do these four things consistently well stand head and shoulders above their peers. Their teams perform better and keep improving.
All four are relatively easy to learn – requiring more commitment, courage and discipline than skill. For most people a three hour training session on each gives them the basics. They then just need to practice and learn perhaps with some additional advice and support along the way. The challenge in implementing this 'Management Make' over is in developing a new set of management habits. And this takes, time, courage and discipline.
But don't rush it. If this recipe is going to work managers need time to develop and put into practice what they have learned.
Start with better communication through 121s. As soon as 121s have bedded down, after 4-6 weeks introduce training on feedback. Let this have a month to bed in before developing coaching, and a further month before training in delegation.
Within 6 months you will have transformed the culture and performance of your organisation. And this Management Makeover will be much more than skin deep.

We've had a few things going on around here and it seems that we are in the throes of Toddlerhood (thus the lame blogging - NO TIME!). Lia is a busy, bright little girl and she has been amazing us with her smarts. She can sing the ABCs (punk-rock style, thanks to her dad), count to 11 (awesome) and is really really trying to spell her name, but it usually comes out as Geeoooeeeeaaaa. (G is her favorite letter, so I guess they all are "G" for now.) She is definitely a Lefty and loves to "coloooor." Now, I'm not one to push little ones to read or count, but this girl WANTS to learn. She's a sponge.
Halloween - L loves herself some "kins" |
We have decided to change one MAJOR thing about little miss - her birthday. Originally, we planned on changing it to a January birthday, which was suggested by our pediatrician. We know in our hearts that the birthdate listed on her paperwork is wrong, and I'm glad we went with a January birthday in our minds for the first year-and-a-half home. She needed that time of us treating her like an infant, instead of a one-year-old. (Especially as she most likely was an infant.) But, we've recently learned that trying to change her birthdate with the government can be tricky, and rather than have her face problems down the road, we're going back to the birthday listed on her paperwork - in August! So, next month she'll turn 2 (in January) and then in August she will turn 3! You've got to roll with it, you know? I hope she understands all of our crazy logic someday.
This girl has personality to spare. She is hilarious. |
Yep, those Santa jammies. He has barely taken them off since he got them. |

In 1973 the University School of Industrial Engineering in
Within the framework of the Law of University Reform, the University of Barcelona created the Divisió VII which incorporated all of the Tarragona and Reus University centres, among which was the Faculty of Chemistry which ran the speciality in Industrial Chemistry. Later it included the newly created university centres, among which was the Tarragona University School of Computing.
With the creation of the Rovira i Virgili University by the Catalan Parliament in 1991, the Tarragona University School of Computing and the University School of Industrial Engineering disappeared and their studies – as well as the previously mentioned speciality in Industrial Chemistry – were absorbed by what is known today as the School of Engineering. It is, therefore, a young school but with more than 35 years of experience.
In 1995, the following programmes were segregated: Chemical Engineering, Industrial Technical Engineering, speciality in Industrial Chemistry, and Agricultural Technical Engineering, speciality in Agrarian and Food Industries. These programmes are now taught by the newly-created Engineering School.
At first the School of Engineering was located in the Tarragona Educational Complex until, in the academic year 2001/2002, it moved to its current site on the Sant Pere Sescelades Campus.

Novel Drug Delivery System Shows Early Promise for Treating Lupus in Mice
A drug delivery system using nanoparticle technology that allows for better targeting of specific immune cells can potentially improve treatment approaches for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), according to research partially funded by the NIH's National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases. The study was recently published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation.SLE, or lupus, is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks the body's own tissues and organs. Lupus-related inflammation can damage the kidneys, skin, joints, brain, heart and lungs. The exact cause of lupus is unknown, but scientists know that certain immune cells, including T cells, B cells, and dendritic cells, are involved.
Current medications for lupus aim to suppress the errant immune responses in an effort to prevent disease progression. However, these medications, which usually must be taken daily and indefinitely to keep the disease under control, have significant limitations. They can be highly toxic and cause serious side effects. As a result, many patients end up discontinuing their medication.
Lupus can affect multiple systems in the body. Diagnosing and treating the disease often requires a team of health care professionals.
In an effort to determine if lupus therapies could be made more effective and tolerable, researchers at Yale University designed and tested a drug delivery mechanism called a nanogel to administer mycophenolic acid (MPA), an immunosuppressant sometimes used to treat lupus. The nanogel in this study was biodegradable and composed of a gel-like core that was loaded with the medication and enclosed by a lipid membrane. Nanogel molecules are small enough to cross cell membranes and can be effectively programmed to seek specific cells. Although nanoparticle drug delivery systems have been used experimentally to treat cancer, they have not yet been explored as a potential treatment mechanism for lupus."Safer, more-accurately focused therapies are sorely needed for lupus," said co-author Joseph Craft, M.D., chief of rheumatology at Yale. "Nanotechnology offers a new therapeutic approach that could optimize current treatments by precisely targeting specific cells, and minimizing side effects."
The researchers administered the MPA-loaded nanogel to lupus-prone mice that had not yet developed symptoms of the disease. Compared to lupus-prone mice who received MPA conventionally, the mice receiving the nanogel treatment lived an average of three months longer, and went longer without experiencing kidney damage—a complication associated with lupus. Mice that had already developed lupus symptoms, including kidney damage, lived an average of two months longer after receiving the MPA-loaded nanogel, compared to their counterparts who received MPA alone.
The investigators found that the nanogel particles accumulated in organs rich in dendritic and T cells, and successfully reduced inflammation associated with them. The nanogel also provided consistent levels of the drug throughout the body for longer periods of time compared with the conventional drug, allowing for lower doses. In addition, results suggested that the nanogel delivery mechanism works without depleting white blood cells, leaving patients less vulnerable to infection. Moreover, the researchers found no evidence of blood, liver or kidney toxicities associated with the nanogel.
"Conventional lupus treatments are less able to zero in on certain immune cells, and can compromise a patient's ability to fight infections. The nanogel's unique ability to target treatment to where it is most needed, and doing it without undesirable side effects, is a promising advance," concluded lead author Michael Look, Ph.D.
This research was also supported by the Lupus Research Institute and the Wallace H. Coulter Foundation.

cfingerd.conf - configurable finger daemon configuration file.SYNOPSIS
cfingerd.conf is the configuration file for cfingerd. cfingerd has been totally rewritten to support a more readable configuration file. This version of the new configuration file is NOT compatible with the older versions from 1.0.3 or below.The configuration file is split into sections of three general types: FILES, CONFIG, and HOSTS.
Each one of those sections is split into subsections, which will be explained next.
Subtext of each option is either boolean options, string options, or switchable options, all changeable by the system administrator.
Each section is split into a series of sections that resembles C type definition; not exact, but close enough to be familiar with it. :) There's only one exception - these are not case sensitive. Any casing will do, as long as the option is legal.
Thus, each section is formatted like this:
OPTION section_name = {
(tab/space) string_option = "string_format",
(tab/space) +/-boolean_pair_option = [BOOL, BOOL],
(tab/space) +/-internal_config_option
(tab/space) host.name.here
This illustrates that string options are strings put into "quotes", boolean options are given as TRUE and FALSE, switchable options are given with the + or - directive, and hostnames are used as substrings, so that wildcards are not necessary.
A few sections simply contain a block of text to be used as the value of a single option, which one is indicated by the section name itself.
You may add comments using the hash mark ``#'' at the beginning of the line. Please note that no comments are allowed inside of a section.
DISPLAY FILES SECTION (FILES display_files)
Each option here is a string option. The first 6 options are relative to the home directory of whatever user was fingered, the remaining are absolute and should start with a "/".PLAN is the optional plan file which contains the text displayed as the users plan. The default is .plan.
PROJECT is the optional project file that is used when displaying a project description. The standard here is .project.
PGP_KEY is the optional "Pretty-Good-Privacy" file that is shown when displaying a public or private key. The standard here is .pgpkey.
XFACE is the optional file that shows the user's face. (This is commonly used in E-Mail messages.) The standard here is .xface.
NO_FINGER is the optional file that is shown when a user wishes to remain anonymous. This is usually the case with root users (which should be standard, anyway). In order to hide the user this file should be an exact copy of the nouser_banner.txt file. The standard here is .nofinger. This file can only be a standard displayable file. This option will also hide the user from a "search.pattern" query. If any user can read this file it will also be honored by a userlist (@host) query. This is done by a non-priviliged program so the uid can't be changed.
USERLOG is the optional file in which all attempts to finger a user are logged for the users own reference. If ALLOW_USERLOG is not enabled this file is completely ignored. If ONLY_CREATE_FINGERLOG_IF_FILE_EXISTS is enabled cfingerd will only document finger requests if this file already exists in the users home directory. The default name is .fingerlog.
MAILBOX is the file that is checked to see where the user's mailbox is. If you are using a regular Unix mail transport agent (such as sendmail(1), smail(1) or exim(1)),youwoulduse /usr/spool/mail/$USER here. If you are using something like qmail, you would use $HOME/Mailbox. The path must be given as well as the filename to check for. $USER will expand to the proper username. $HOME will expand to the proper home directory for that very user. If MAILBOX is set to``QMAIL'' cfingerd assumes that Qmail is used on the local system and therefore will read ~/.qmail files instead of common mailbox files.
LOGFILE is the file that is used to keep logs of everything that happens to your finger program. These logs are kept as backups for your finger file, and can be used to guard against attacks against your system if a finger attack occurs. By keeping cfingerd.conf readable only by root the logfile should be kept in a safe, hidden place.
HEADER_DISPLAY is the file that is displayed at the top of each finger reply. The standard here is /etc/cfingerd/top_finger.txt.
FOOTER_DISPLAY is the file that is displayed at the end of each finger reply. The standard here is /etc/cfingerd/bottom_finger.txt.
NO_USER_BANNER is the file that is displayed if the user doesn't exist. The standard here is /etc/cfingerd/nouser_banner.txt.
NO_NAME_BANNER is the file that is displayed if no name was specified in a finger request if a system listing is not allowed by the SYSTEM_LIST option (explained later). The standard here is /etc/cfingerd/noname_banner.txt.
REJECTED_BANNER is the file that is displayed if a rejected host tries to finger your system for any reason. The standard here is /etc/cfingerd/rejected_banner.txt.
FINGER DISPLAY CONFIGURE SECTION (CONFIG finger_display)
Each option in this section is boolean. The way this works is as follows: The first boolean option is the setting for a remote host, or a host that fingers you from the outside. The second boolean option is the setting for the local host, or trusted host. This is what people from your own system will see.TRUE means that this item is included in the cfingerd reply. FALSE means it is omitted. Unless otherwise specified these items only appear if an existing user is fingered.
Each option has a "-" or "+" option. This is for user-overridable options, which will be in the next release of cfingerd. These will allow each user to manipulate if this information is displayed when that specific user is fingered.
HEADER_FILE displays the header file at the beginning of each finger reply.
FOOTER_FILE displays the footer file at the end of each finger reply.
LOGIN_ID displays the login ID of that particular user.
REAL_NAME displays the real name of that particular user.
DIRECTORY displays the user's directory.
SHELL displays the user's shell.
ROOM_NUMBER displays the user's room number.
WORK_NUMBER displays the user's work phone number.
HOME_NUMBER displays the user's home phone number.
OTHER displays the user's other information.
LAST_TIME_ON displays the last time the user has logged into the fingered system.
IF_ONLINE displays whether or not the user is currently logged into the fingered system.
TIME_MAIL_READ displays the last time that the fingered user has read mail.
DAY_MAIL_READ displays the last day that the fingered user read his/her mail.
ORIGINATION displays the site from which the user logged in (if applicable.)
PLAN displays the user's plan file.
PROJECT displays the user's project file.
PGP displays the user's Pretty-Good-Privacy key file.
XFACE displays the user's XFACE file.
NO_NAME_BANNER displays the banner if no username was given.
REJECTED_BANNER displays the rejected banner file if the site fingering your system was in the banned-site listing.
SYSTEM_LIST displays the system list if one was requested.
NO_NAME displays the NO_USER_BANNER file if no user was selected.
INTERNAL CONFIG SECTION (CONFIG internal_config)
Each item in this section is a switchable option. This means that a "+" before the item enables it while a "-" before the item turns it off.ALLOW_MULTIPLE_FINGER_DISPLAY tells cfingerd to add the system finger information from the hosts listed in the system_list_sites instead of only the localhost. This is useful when you have more than one ISP machine, located in different cities, or even states.
ALLOW_SEARCHABLE_FINGER allows you to let others outside of your system (or within it) to search for a specific username by using the "search.pattern" directive.
ALLOW_NO_IP_MATCH_FINGER allows you to let sites finger your system if a hostname could not be matched to their IP address successfully.
ALLOW_USER_OVERRIDE will allow your users to override specific options in the FINGER DISPLAY section that you enable. This is not yet implemented.
ALLOW_USERLIST_ONLY will allow other sites to get a shortened form of the "finger @hostname" response by issuing "finger userlist-only@hostname". The shortened form does not merge in other computers even if ALLOW_MULTIPLE_FINGER_DISPLAY is enabled, and omits the usual headers and footers. This listing is only available if the remote user is allowed to query for a regular system list, so SYSTEM_LIST from the finger_display section needs to be enabled, too.
ALLOW_FINGER_FORWARDING will allow other sites to forward finger requests to a different machine if the user could not be located on the current machine. (In order to use this option, you MUST have the HOSTS finger_forward option set, and have other sites in there.)
ALLOW_STRICT_FORMATTING makes the finger display remove all returns between display options. This makes the finger display look horrible (as with GNU Finger or the other generic fingers) and makes your system look, well, "generic". :)
ALLOW_VERBOSE_TIMESTAMPING makes the timestamp that is displayed (at any place) very verbose. For instance, where it used to say:
On since Sat Aug 12 03:43PM (PDT)
would now be shown as:
On since Sat Aug 12, 1995 03:43PM (PDT)
(Basically, ALLOW_VERBOSE_TIMESTAMPING just takes up more room on the display field.)
ALLOW_NONIDENT_ACCESS lets cfingerd also accept connections from sites that don't run the IDENT daemon (or RFC1413-compliant program.) This is for security sake, and is a good measure against unknown users trying to finger your system. If this option is enabled, users that do not have identd running on their system (ala Windows users) will be able to finger your system. Systems NOT running identd will return "unknown" as the user ID, and will thusly not be permitted to finger a user on your system.
ALLOW_FINGER_LOGGING enables cfingerd to use the LOGFILE file to store any logs of activity that happen to your system via finger.
ALLOW_LINE_PARSING makes cfingerd parse each line of every display file (including the plan, project, and pgp files) for any cfingerd-specific "$" commands. If any are found, cfingerd will parse these commands and display correct information accordingly. Otherwise, if this is turned off, the display will appear without parsed commands.
ALLOW_EXECUTION will allow users to execute scripts in place of their .plan, .project, and .pgp files. This is used to display the standard output of another program directly to the screen of the user. Keep in mind that this is a HUGE security risk, should you choose to use it. It's normally suggested that this remain off, but you can turn it on if necessary. Nevertheless these programs are called as nobody.nogroup as effective user (while the real user will still be root, but a called program won't be able to change this back).
ALLOW_FAKEUSER_FINGER turns on or off the fake user option in cfingerd. If you want fake users to be defined, and available to be fingered, you will want to enable this option. This can be a security risk in some instances if you allow for searchable fingers, and your script calls an execute routine on that variable... But chances are, that'll never happen.
ALLOW_USERLOG will allow users to keep track of who has fingered them, and at what time. The default name of this user logfile is .fingerlog.
ALLOW_CONFESSION enables two fakeusers "help" and "version" that provide information about the system running. Some people don't like that so you can turn it off. When fingered the requestor will only see the NO_USER_BANNER so he can't guess that the fakeuser is supported.
ONLY_SHOW_HEADERS_IF_FILE_EXISTS will only show the header of the .plan, .project, etc. files if they exist. If the file doesn't exist, the header will not be shown. This saves space on the final output of the finger data.
ONLY_CREATE_FINGERLOG_IF_FILE_EXISTS will only create a .fingerlog file in the fingered user's home directory if one exists (and is read/writable by the user.) This is to cut down on hard drive space if they don't want a .fingerlog file.
SYSTEM LIST SITES SECTION (CONFIG system_list_sites)
This is just a series of hostnames that you want to finger when displaying a userlist query (finger @localhost) . If you have more than one system that you want to show, simply put their hostnames in this list, separated on a line by itself.A good example of the way this works is this: If you have a separate ISP system that you are running on the side, say "chatlink.com", then I would change my configuration to say:
CONFIG system_list_sites = {
Remember, if you are listing only a couple of sites, list the sites you will want to have listed (in order) first. These sites are required to run cfingerd as well and they must not be offline while fingering. The ending entry MUST be the localhost, or the finger listing will not include your site. If you include localhost anywhere else in the list, it will stop once it has reached the localhost entry, so remember to list it last!
For the simple fact that I want to get a user listing from my own machine, and from chatlink.com's system. This would be automatically formatted nicely (ie. sorted and parsed) and would display on the screen in sorted order. This program is usually used in tandem with the supplied userlist(1) program.
If no system list sites are specified, multiple system sites will not be specified.
TRUSTED HOST SECTION (HOSTS trusted)
This is a listing of the sites that you allow to finger your system exclusively, giving them the same access that your local users would get. In other words, they are treated as "localhost" users.Each site that you list in this section should be separated by using the "," character. You can include up to 80 sites in this listing.
Wildcards are supported in this section, and you may use them in the regex format as well. Any wildcards with "*", "?", or any other regex wildcard matching character will work. IP addresses will also work. Hostnames are compared case insensitive.
REJECTED HOST SECTION (HOSTS rejected)
This is a listing of the sites that you do not allow to finger your system. These sites don't get to finger anyone (or anything for that matter) on your system, regardless of what they try to do. In essence, finger is cut off to those particular systems.Each site that you list in this section should be separated by using the "," character. You can include up to 80 sites in this listing.
Wildcards are supported in this section, and you may use them in the regex format as well. Any wildcards with "*", "?", or any other regex wildcard matching character will work. IP addresses will also work. Hostnames are compared case insensitive.
FORWARDED HOST SECTION (HOSTS finger_forward)
This is a listing of sites that are used to forward a finger query to when a finger request was processed, but that particular user was not found on the associated system. It will step through this listing, and it will search for the user in question. If the user could not be found, then it will step through to the next host, and the next, until it finds one.Each site that you list in this section should be separated by using the "," character. You can include up to 80 sites in this listing.
Wildcards are supported in this section, and you may use them in the regex format as well. Any wildcards with "*", "?", or any other regex wildcard matching character will work. Hostnames are compared case insensitive.
If you do not specify any forwarding sites in this section, finger forwarding will be disabled for your system.
FINGER STRINGS SECTION (CONFIG finger_strings)
Each option in this section is a string that can be changed to fit your needs when displaying finger information. These strings are limited to about 20 characters on the display. (If you use more than 20, the finger display will end up looking strange.)USER_NAME is the string that is displayed when the user's username is shown.
REAL_NAME is the string that is displayed when the user's real name is shown.
DIRECTORY is the string that is displayed when the user's directory is shown.
SHELL is the string that is displayed when the user's shell is shown.
ROOM_NUMBER is the string that is displayed when the user's room number is shown.
WORK_NUMBER is the string that is displayed when the user's work phone number is shown.
HOME_NUMBER is the string that is displayed when the user's home phone number is shown.
OTHER is the string that is displayed when the user's other display information is show.
PLAN is the string that is displayed when the user's plan is shown.
PROJECT is the string that is displayed when the user's project is shown.
PGPKEY is the string that is displayed when the user's PGP Key is shown.
XFACE is the string that is displayed when the user's XFACE file is shown.
NO_PLAN is the string that is displayed if the user doesn't have a plan file to show you and ONLY_SHOW_HEADERS_IF_FILE_EXISTS is not enabled.
NO_PROJECT is the string that is displayed if the user doesn't have a project file to show you and ONLY_SHOW_HEADERS_IF_FILE_EXISTS is not enabled.
NO_PGP is the string that is displayed if the user doesn't have a PGP Key file to show you and ONLY_SHOW_HEADERS_IF_FILE_EXISTS is not enabled.
NO_XFACE is the string that is displayed if the user doesn't have an xface file to show you and ONLY_SHOW_HEADERS_IF_FILE_EXISTS is not enabled.
WAIT is the string that is shown when the system gathers information from other sites for a user listing.
INTERNAL STRINGS SECTION (CONFIG internal_strings)
These strings are changeable, and can be any length you want (within reason). These strings are concattenated into the syslogging display when the appropriate finger has been issued. This section also includes error messages that may occur.NO_IP_HOST is shown when there is no hostname that matches the incoming IP address. This usually indicates that either the site didn't register their IP address with the InterNIC, or they are coming from a hacked site.
RENICE_FATAL is shown when the system failed to change the execution priority on the current process of cfingerd.
STDIN_EMPTY is shown when the input buffer on the CFINGERD port is empty. (This should never really happen; it's here for sanity.)
TRUSTED_HOST is shown when a trusted host fingers your system. If you do not specify a trusted host, cfingerd will insert "localhost" into this field.
REJECTED_HOST is shown when a rejected host fingers your system. If you do not specify a rejected host, cfingerd will insert "0.0.0.0" into this field.
ROOT_FINGER is shown when a user fingers root.
SERVICE_FINGER is shown when a user requests fake user services from your system.
USER_LIST is shown when a user requests a system user listing from your system.
FAKE_USER is shown when a user fingers a fake user from your system.
WHOIS_USER is shown when a user fingers a user with a "WHOIS" query. (This option is not yet available at the time of this writing.)
FINGER_DENY is shown when a user tries to finger with a forward request like user@host1@host2. This is not supported as it could result in finger loops and lots of traffic.
SIGNAL STRINGS CONFIGURE SECTION (CONFIG signal_strings)
This section is used in changing the output that is given when a system crashes, or a signal is caught, and reported to the finger output.The supported caught signals are as follows:
FINGER PROGRAMS FILES SECTION (FILES finger_programs)
These are the programs that are called when a specific action is take on the finger display.FINGER is the file that is used when a system user listing is requested from your machine. This is used in the standard user list and in the sorted user list, so it is wise to use the standard here; this being /usr/sbin/userlist.
WHOIS is the program that is used when a "whois" request is done on a specific user. This is currently not used.
FINGER FAKEUSERS FILES SECTION (FILES finger_fakeusers)
These are the ever-popular fake users that you can create on your system. These users are ones that don't exist (and should not, for that matter.) These are, instead, treated as normal scripts that can be called for your use.The format is as follows for fake users:
"fake_username", "Script name", SEARCHBOOL, "script"
fake_username is the name of the fake user you want to request. Make sure that this is a user that DOES NOT exist on your system. Keep in mind that if you create a fake username, and that user already exists, the fake username will be shown. If you prepend '-' before the username, the fake user will not be shown on the list of services.
Script name is the standard name of your script. This is used in the display of your services listing.
SEARCHBOOL specifies whether or not parameters can be sent to that specific fake user. If you decide to use the SEARCHBOOL option (ie. TRUE in this case), the passed variables are:
$1 - First passed option,
$2 - Second passed option,
$3 - Third passed option, and
$4 - Fourth passed option.
(If more than four options were passed to this, the request will be ignored, and an error message will be returned to the user that requested the finger request.)
script is the location of your script. It should be chmod 700 and readable only by root.
If you do not specify any fake users, a fake user called "None" will be created. This is a fake user that does nothing, and calls "/dev/null" for the script.
SERVICES HEADER CONFIGURE SECTION (CONFIG services_header)
This is the display that is given during a services finger. It should be formatted the same way that you want it to display on the screen.When specifying the finger formatted options, you should specify them as C formatted strings as well, with the standard options. This should always be given last in the display.
An example of this would be:
Welcome to this system's services!
User: Service name: Searchable:
-------- -------------------- -----------
%-8s %-20s %-s
Where this would display the above string. Remember to keep the format string last, or a SIGSEGV will result.
SERVICES POSITIONS CONFIGURE SECTION (CONFIG services_positions)
This specifies where in the above display string that the information from a service listing is to go. These numbers can be anywhere between 1 and 3.USER specifies the position of the username listing.
SERVICE specifies the position of the service full-name listing.
SEARCH specifies the position of the boolean search display.

The previous section of Lesson 3 discussed Thomas Young's effort to derive an equation relating the wavelength of a light source to reliably measured distances associated with a two-point source light interference pattern. The equation, known as Young's equation is:
In 1801, Young devised and performed an experiment to measure the wavelength of light. As discussed in the previous part of this lesson, it was important that the two sources of light that form the pattern be coherent. The difficulty confronting Young was that the usual light sources of the day (candles, lanterns, etc.) could not serve as coherent light sources. Young's method involved using sunlight that entered the room through a pinhole in a window shutter. A mirror was used to direct the pinhole beam horizontally across the room. To obtain two sources of light, Young used a small paper card to break the single pinhole beam into two beams, with part of the beam passing by the left side of the card and part of the beam passing by the right side of the card. Since these two beams emerged from the same source - the sun - they could be considered coming from two coherent sources. Light waves from these two sources (the left side and the right side of the card) would interfere. The interference pattern was then projected onto a screen where measurements could be made to determine the wavelength of light.
Today's classroom version of the same experiment is typically performed using a laser beam as the source. Rather than using a note card to split the single beam into two coherent beams, a carbon-coated glass slide with two closely spaced etched slits is used. The slide with its slits is most commonly purchased from a manufacturer who provides a measured value for the slit separation distance - the d value in Young's equation. Light from the laser beam diffracts through the slits and emerges as two separate coherent waves. The interference pattern is then projected onto a screen where reliable measurements can be made of L and y for a given bright spot with order value m. Knowing these four values allows a student to determine the value of the wavelength of the original light source.
To illustrate some typical results from this experiment and the subsequent analysis, consider the sample data provided below for d, y, L and m.
Slit Separation (d)
Distance from Slits to Screen (L)
Distance from AN0 to AN4 (y)
Order value (m)
(Note: AN0 = central antinode and AN4 = fourth antinode)
The determination of the wavelength demands that the above values for d, y, L and m be substituted into Young's equation.
Careful inspection of the units of measurement is always advisable. The sample data here reveal that each measured quantity is recorded with a different unit. Before substituting these measured values into the above equation, it is important to give some thought to the treatment of units. One means of resolving the issue of nonuniform units is to simply pick a unit of length and to convert all quantities to that unit. If doing so, one might want to pick a unit that one of the data values already has so that there is one less conversion. A wise choice is to choose the meter as the unit to which all other measured values are converted. Since there are 1000 millimeters in 1 meter, the 0.250 mm is equivalent to 0.000250 meter. And since there are 100 centimeters in 1 meter, the 10.2 cm is equivalent to 0.102 m. Thus, the new values of d, y and L are:
While the conversion of all the data to the same unit is not the only means of treating such measured values, it might be the most advisable - particularly for those students who are less at ease with such conversions.
Now that the issue regarding the units of measurement has been resolved, substitution of the measured values into Young's equation can be performed.
λ = 6.52 x 10-7 m
As is evident here, the wavelength of visible light is rather small. For this reason wavelength is often expressed using the unit nanometer, where 1 meter is equivalent to 109 nanometers. Multiplying by 109 will convert the wavelength from meters to nanometers (abbreviated nm).
1. The diagram below depicts the results of Young's Experiment. The appropriate measurements are listed on the diagram. Use these measurements to determine the wavelength of light in nanometers. (GIVEN: 1 meter = 109 nanometers)
Answer: 657 nm
First, identify known values in terms of their corresponding variable symbol:
L = 10.2 m = 1020 cm y = 22.5 cm m = 10 d = 0.298 mm = 0.0298 cm
L = 10.2 m = 1020 cm
y = 22.5 cm
m = 10
d = 0.298 mm = 0.0298 cm
(Note: m was chosen as 10 since the y distance corresponds to the distance from the 5th bright band on one side of the central band and the 5th bright band on the other side of the central band.)
Then convert all known values to an identical unit. In this case, cm has been chosen as the unit to use. The converted values are listed in the table above.
Substitute all values into Young's equation and perform calculation of the wavelength. The unit of wavelength is cm.
λ = y • d / ( m • L) λ = ( 22.5 cm ) • ( 0.0298 cm ) / [ ( 10 ) • ( 1020 cm ) ] λ = 6.57 x 10-5 cm
λ = ( 22.5 cm ) • ( 0.0298 cm ) / [ ( 10 ) • ( 1020 cm ) ]
λ = 6.57 x 10-5 cm
Finally convert to nanometers using a conversion factor. If there are 109 nm in 1 meter, then there must be 107 nm in the smaller centimeter.
λ = ( 6.57 x 10-5 cm ) • ( 107 nm / 1 cm ) = 657 nm
2. A student uses a laser and a double-slit apparatus to project a two-point source light interference pattern onto a whiteboard located 5.87 meters away. The distance measured between the central bright band and the fourth bright band is 8.21 cm. The slits are separated by a distance of 0.150 mm. What would be the measured wavelength of light?
Answer: 524 nm
L = 5.87 m = 587 cm y = 8.21 cm m = 4 d = 0.150 mm = 0.0150 cm
L = 5.87 m = 587 cm
y = 8.21 cm
m = 4
d = 0.150 mm = 0.0150 cm
λ = y • d / ( m • L) λ = ( 8.21 cm ) • ( 0.0150 cm ) / [ ( 4 ) • ( 587 cm ) ] λ = 5.24 x 10-5 cm
λ = ( 5.24 x 10-5 cm ) • ( 107 nm / 1 cm ) = 524 nm
3. The analysis of any two-point source interference pattern and a successful determination of wavelength demands an ability to sort through the measured information and equating the values with the symbols in Young's equation. Apply your understanding by interpreting the following statements and identifying the values of y, d, m and L. Finally, perform some conversions of the given information such that all information share the same unit.
y =
d =
m =
This question simply asks to equate the stated information with the variables of Young's equation and to perform conversions such that all information is in the same unit.
y = 12.8 cm
d = 0.250 mm
m = 4.5
L = 8.2 meters
d = 0.0250 cm
L = 820 cm
(Note that m = 4.5 represents the fifth nodal position or dark band from the central bright band. Also note that the given values have been converted to cm.)
b. An interference pattern is produced when light is incident upon two slits that are 50.0 micrometers apart. The perpendicular distance from the midpoint between the slits to the screen is 7.65 m. The distance between the two third-order antinodes on opposite sides of the pattern is 32.9 cm.
y = 32.9 cm
d = 50.0 µm
m = 6
L = 7.65 m
d = 0.00500 cm
L = 765 cm
(Note that m = 6 corresponds to six spacings. There are three spacings between the central antinode and the third antinode. The stated distance is twice as far so the m value must be doubled. Also note that the given values have been converted to cm. There are 106 µm in one meter; so there are 104 µm in one centimeter.)
c. The fourth nodal line on an interference pattern is 8.4 cm from the first antinodal line when the screen is placed 235 cm from the slits. The slits are separated by 0.25 mm.
y = 8.4 cm
d = 0.25 mm
m = 2.5
L = 235 cm
d = 0.025 cm
( Note that the fourth nodal line is assigned the order value of 3.5. Also note that the given values have been converted to cm.)
d. Two sources separated by 0.500 mm produce an interference pattern 525 cm away. The fifth and the second antinodal line on the same side of the pattern are separated by 98 mm.
y = 98 mm
d = 0.500 mm
m = 3
L = 525 cm
y = 9.8 cm
d = 0.0500 cm
( Note that there are three spacings between the second and the fifth bright bands. Since all spacings are the same distance apart, the distance between the second and the fifth bright bands would be the same as the distance between the central and the third bright bands. Thus, m = 3. Also note that the given values have been converted to cm.)
e. Two slits that are 0.200 mm apart produce an interference pattern on a screen such that the central maximum and the 10th bright band are distanced by an amount equal to one-tenth the distance from the slits to the screen.
y = 0.1 • L
d = 0.200 mm
L - not stated
( Note that there are 10 spacings between the central anti-node and the tenth bright band or tenth anti-node. And observe that they do not state the actual values of L and y; the value of y is expressed in terms of L. )
f. The fifth antinodal line and the second nodal line on the opposite side of an interference pattern are separated by a distance of 32.1 cm when the slits are 6.5 m from the screen. The slits are separated by 25.0 micrometers.
y = 32.1 cm
d = 25.0 µm
m = 6.5
L = 6.5 m
d = 0.00250 cm
L = 650 cm
( Note that there are five spacings between the central anti-node and the fifth anti-node. And there are 1.5 spacings from the central anti-node in the opposite direction out to the second nodal line. Thus, m = 6.5. Also note that the given values have been converted to cm. There are 106 µm in one meter; so there are 104 µm in one centimeter.)
g. If two slits 0.100 mm apart are separated from a screen by a distance of 300 mm, then the first-order minimum will be 1 cm from the central maximum.
y = 1 cm
d = 0.100 mm
m = 0.5
L = 300 mm
d = 0.0100 cm
L = 30.0 cm
( Note that a the first-order minimum is a point of minimum brightness or a nodal position. The first-order minimum is the first nodal position and is thus the m = 0.5 node. Also note that the given values have been converted to cm. )
h. Consecutive bright bands on an interference pattern are 3.5 cm apart when the slide containing the slits is 10.0 m from the screen. The slit separation distance is 0.050 mm.
y = 3.5 cm
d = 0.050 mm
m = 1
L = 10.0 m
d = 0.0050 cm
L = 1000 cm
( Note that the spacing between adjacent bands is given. This distance is equivalent with the distance from the central bright band to the first antinode. Thus, m = 1. Also note that the given values have been converted to cm. )

Romans, 1
1. From Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle,
2. set apart for the service of the gospel that God promised long ago through his prophets in the holy scriptures.
3. This is the gospel concerning his Son who, in terms of human nature
4. was born a descendant of David and who, in terms of the Spirit and of holiness, was designated Son of God in power by resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ, our Lord,
5. through whom we have received grace and our apostolic mission of winning the obedience of faith among all the nations for the honour of his name.
6. You are among these, and by his call you belong to Jesus Christ.
7. To you all, God's beloved in Rome, called to be his holy people. Grace and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
8. First I give thanks to my God through Jesus Christ for all of you because your faith is talked of all over the world.
9. God, whom I serve with my spirit in preaching the gospel of his Son, is my witness that I continually mention you in my prayers,
10. asking always that by some means I may at long last be enabled to visit you, if it is God's will.
11. For I am longing to see you so that I can convey to you some spiritual gift that will be a lasting strength,
12. or rather that we may be strengthened together through our mutual faith, yours and mine.
13. I want you to be quite certain too, brothers, that I have often planned to visit you -- though up to the present I have always been prevented -- in the hope that I might work as fruitfully among you as I have among the gentiles elsewhere.
14. I have an obligation to Greeks as well as barbarians, to the educated as well as the ignorant,
15. and hence the eagerness on my part to preach the gospel to you in Rome too.
16. For I see no reason to be ashamed of the gospel; it is God's power for the salvation of everyone who has faith -- Jews first, but Greeks as well-
17. for in it is revealed the saving justice of God: a justice based on faith and addressed to faith. As it says in scripture: Anyone who is upright through faith will live.
18. The retribution of God from heaven is being revealed against the ungodliness and injustice of human beings who in their injustice hold back the truth.
19. For what can be known about God is perfectly plain to them, since God has made it plain to them:
20. ever since the creation of the world, the invisible existence of God and his everlasting power have been clearly seen by the mind's understanding of created things. And so these people have no excuse:
21. they knew God and yet they did not honour him as God or give thanks to him, but their arguments became futile and their uncomprehending minds were darkened.
22. While they claimed to be wise, in fact they were growing so stupid
23. that they exchanged the glory of the immortal God for an imitation, for the image of a mortal human being, or of birds, or animals, or crawling things.
24. That is why God abandoned them in their inmost cravings to filthy practices of dishonouring their own bodies-
25. because they exchanged God's truth for a lie and have worshipped and served the creature instead of the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
26. That is why God abandoned them to degrading passions:
27. why their women have exchanged natural intercourse for unnatural practices; and the men, in a similar fashion, too, giving up normal relations with women, are consumed with passion for each other, men doing shameful things with men and receiving in themselves due reward for their perversion.
28. In other words, since they would not consent to acknowledge God, God abandoned them to their unacceptable thoughts and indecent behaviour.
29. And so now they are steeped in all sorts of injustice, rottenness, greed and malice; full of envy, murder, wrangling, treachery and spite,
30. libellers, slanderers, enemies of God, rude, arrogant and boastful, enterprising in evil, rebellious to parents,
31. without brains, honour, love or pity.
32. They are well aware of God's ordinance: that those who behave like this deserve to die -- yet they not only do it, but even applaud others who do the same.
