Ugh...decisions about my IROC
So I started up the IROC today, and that all-too familiar feeling of nostalgia flooded over me.
Not to mention I had recruited a slight mob to help me move the car "safely" from one friend's house to another. They were all pretty impressed to hear a 305 rumble like she did after being pretty much dead for 1.5 years. And of course there are so few 3rd gen convertibles around, it always gets some looks.
I have huge problems, mostly the fact that I'm no longer military and the car is still registered/wearing Florida tags. So to get it on the road I have to get it registered/titled in the communist-wealth here, which means it has to be safety-inspected.
Well let's just look at what that will take, shall we?
1) Brakes. The reason it's parked to begin with. I had to replace the rear-end 2 years ago. The replacement rear-end (junkyard special) had drums rusted solid from being outside for years...so I removed them, with full intentions of adding new brakes soon. Not sono enough however before the open rear lines caused the proportioning valve (I assume) to go out and something went out in the Master Cylinder (maybe seals from the sudden pressure drop of fluid dumping out when I hit the brakes?)
1a) Summary: I need a complete brake system for an '89 IROC convertible with a 1994 auto rear-end...including every last thing on the axles....yes, even the drums themselves.
2) The shifter. Previous owner did a ghetto ass install of the shifter, bypassing the nuetral-safety switch. Besides the obvious problem of it starting without having to be in park or nuetral, the transmission will not shift into Overdrive without it. Don't know why, but it won't. Sucks on the highway, let me tell you. Also, the shifter (B&M ratchet-style) won't ratchet all the way to 1st gear.
3) For some reason stepping on the brake makes the parking lights come on. I have read that having the wrong bulbs installed in the taillights/blinkers can cause this very strange problem.
4) The car will not run with the MAF connected. It runs fine in limp mode (no MAF) but this is not how I want the car to run.
5) Because of the above, the plugs foul very quickly and on average runs on 5-7 cylinders max at any given time. The slight advantage is it sounds like I got a mean-lumpy cam in it...hehe. This is assisted with the very decent catback with a Flowmaster dual-chamber on it.
6) In it's year hiatus...neighborhood kids broke my driver's seat. Hell it might have been my kid (ore-divorce when she lived with me), but someone broke my seat, it's no longer connected to the floor.
7) Aftermarket steering wheel...horn not connected. I hope that 89's didn't come with an airbag from the factory or this may really suck come inspection-time.
8) Heater core bypassed due to it exploding. Yummy anti-freeze in my interior one day while at work. Didn't take long to diagnose that one. Started to disassemble the dash to replace it, literally the next day the brakes went out.
9) Windows have been sitting too long, last night barely got them moving, the motors might have seized up from lack of use. I'm pretty sure the car chuckled when I tried to use the door locks.
10) The tranny slips badly. Since the day I bought it, the tranny has been in dire need of refreshing. The belts/clutches are fried (evident by the 1/2" of sludge on the pan-magnet when I changed the burnt ass tranny fluid right after I got the car). The tranny will NOT do the 2-3 shift under power, I have to let off throttle for it to shift into third.
There's the top-10 reasons it's gotta go into storage (which of course, after 6 months of storage, the repairs will have paid for themselves....but I'm not bright enough to realize this as I type it and will store it rather than fix it anyway).
All this being said (are you actually still reading this shit?) the car ran a 15.5@89 the day I got silly and took it to the test and tune. That's right...limp mode (no MAF), slipping tranny (won't 2-3 shift under throttle), convertible 305 TPI...ran a 15/5@89 MPH. WAY too fast for that car. My '91 that was MINT was considerably slower than that. The engine has been rebuilt and at least been touched up a little on the inside. no idea what, but something...the bottom end (looking at the block with the car on the lift) is spotlessly clean...it's been worked on.
SO!!!!!! The question I pose is...how much do you think it will cost for all this? I have my ballpark figure, which I won't share for the sake of making you come up with something...but I have to do something. I'm about to be sharing space and money with GF and two kids...times are changing!
Seriously, some of you just straight up skipped form the 2nd paragraph to this line, didn't you? :headbang:
And of course... :tweetz:
If you think your car is laughin' at ya, it just might be time to step away
I'm no Mechanic, or have ever had to do such extensive repairs - so I can't provide any type of figure, ballpark or otherwise...
I can offer a modest opinion though. It sounds to me that most everything except the engine itself needs to be replaced. Having said that...Do you want a 5th gen? If so, I suggest give the car one last, good :tweetz:, then retire the IROC, Sell it for $1.00;), or let a junkyard have it. Save the money for the 5th gen.....Poor, poor, car.:cry:
I wish it were that simple. Don't tell my lienholder, but me and the ex-wife did a consolidation loan on the title of this car...for $12,000. I really paid about $3k for it. But I still owe about $4k on it.
It's not going anywhere anytime soon, folks.
I'm gonna share some pics of her after her first bath.
MerF I got a navy buddy back in GA that has a beautiful 3rd gen vert. candy apple red with black racing stripes, american racing chrome rims on her. Ill see if I can get a hold of him. he actually built that Iroc out of 2 junkers that he owned. I think he'd be able to give you a good ballpark guess.
That would be swell.
Yeah, I said swell.
$3,000.....my guess. The majority of that going into the tranny. The rest of the parts are pick and pull parts...junkyard.
ya, sorry dude, I have the attention span of a squirell when it comes to long scary novels...
How's the body on it? There are two ways you can go here. One is buy a slightly used LS1:tweetz: , new 4L80E conversion:tweetz:, and a new Moser 12 bolt:tweetz:. Get on LS1Tech and you should find everything you need for under ten grand. Or like Tag said about 3-4k using used(Junkyard is such a harsh term isn't it?) parts and getting a tranny rebuild done at a shop.:tweetz: Either way that car deserves to be saved. Third gen verts are fairly rare.
:tweetz: :tweetz: What's the insurance value? It could always catch fire or get stolen!:tweetz: :tweetz:
Value for the car is about half of what I owe.
And I can't help but LOL at the fact that everyone has boobies wiggling in their posts now.
Hey, merf go to www.thirdgen.org . They give great answers to your questions. And I'am a member their, and they love firebirds and camaros from '82 to '92.
I'm a member, it's been a while since I was there. Honestly, I know what I need to do and I know what it will cost, I've done th ebudget for it forever ago and lost it. I just need to DO it.
Basically this was a rant more than anyhting. :)
yeah man if you still owe on the car then do it. it will be worth it in the long run. my 86 IROC was in great shape when i got it, it only had 23K miles on it and the orginal engine. it was originally my uncles and he threw the 406 stroker i bought along with a doug nash 6 speed and a new rear axle to handle the extra hp. All in all i put about 10k including buying the car from him and i only drive it on weekends and random days but its soo worth it when i hit the gas. these are great cars to mess with man. get on it sooner rather than later you'll be glad you did.

Metro Police have arrested a second man they say is connected to a 2009 gang rape and robbery.
Police arrested Deshaun Brown, 16, of South Eighth Street on March 23 on charges of aggravated rape and aggravated robbery stemming from the July 8, 2009, home invasion of an apartment on Heritage Drive in Madison.
In February, police arrested 20-year-old Jerome Holt in connection with the crime [1].
Police said Brown and Holt forced their way into the apartment of a 29-year-old man after knocking on his door and asking to use the phone. When the man opened the door, he faced a large revolver.
Once inside, the two suspects forced the man and his 21-year-old girlfriend to lie face-down while they disconnected the phone and computer. The suspects then allegedly stole about $50 from the victims before they took the woman into a back bedroom and raped her.
Police said they recovered two used condoms, along with other items, from the scene. DNA from one of the condoms matched Holt's, which was on file from 2008 felony robbery and auto burglary cases.
Police said Holt admitted entering the apartment with his face covered and robbing the victims of $47.
In March, a Davidson County grand jury indicted Brown and Holt on 25 counts each, including especially aggravated kidnapping, aggravated rape, felony weapons charges, and aiding and abetting aggravated rape.
Police expect to drop charges against a third person initially indicted in March; however, they say a third arrest is still possible.

News from Cyprus rattled the markets today, and traders are using short-term weekly options to stay nimble.
optionMONSTER's Heat Seeker monitoring program detected unusual activity in companies such as ConocoPhillips, Anadarko Petroleum, and Michael Kors. Volume focused on contracts expiring this Friday, letting investors profit from short-term rallies, while also limiting their losses if panic intensifies in the broader market.
KORS was the first to grab attention with more than 4,500 of its 57.50 Weekly calls purchased for $0.75 to $1. Minutes later, attention turned to the APC 85 Weekly calls, where more than 6,000 contracts were bought mostly for $1.30.
Then the biggest volume hit in COP, where traders snapped up more than 20,000 Weekly 60 calls. Most of the contracts priced for $0.16 to $0.21. Those COP calls have already more than tripled from their initial prints for $0.07, which illustrates the leverage potential of weekly options.
Apple, another long-time favorite of short-term traders, is also seeing bullish activity. Its 450 Weekly calls have changed hands almost 21,000 times, making them the top contract on our proprietary Trading Weeklies page. The AAPL 460s, 445s, and 455s are also active.
Weekly options have grown increasingly popular in the last two years as investors use the instruments to play short-term moves in some of the market's most popular companies. Despite representing less than 2 percent of all the contracts in the market, they account for almost 18 percent of today's volume, according to optionMONSTER data.

Last week I attended the wake of a beloved friend's father who died of cancer. Last year around this time, a relative succumbed and passed away. Most friends I know have someone in their family who is living under the torment of this ruthless killer. My dad is a cancer survivor himself.
2012 was a gloomy year where my friend's father, a close relative and my dad were diagnosed with cancer. My dad had almost half of his stomach removed but thankfully his cancer was in the early stage thus chemotherapy was not required. With only half a stomach left, he now takes small meals, chews his food well and watches what he eats. He has since lost considerable amount of weight but is still leading an active life. He cycles and goes for walks everyday.
It's good to slay the demon. It's good to wake up to another day of sun rise, to breathe another breath of fresh air and watch the world go by.
It's good to be living and moving.
Unfortunately both my friend's dad and relative weren't so lucky. They have battled and succumbed to the disease. And I can't help but to feel angry at how brutal this killer is. Each surgery and chemotherapy session promises hope. Yet a relapse would often follow and another relentless battle begins.
It's cruel to be lifted by hope and then have it shattered by another life sentence. All we could do is to helplessly watch them shrivel and succumb.
This Sunday, I will be running in the Singtel cancer run. It will be my 3rd year running but my first since I busted my knee last December.
I have yet to regain full mobility of my left knee but the regular cycling trips have helped strengthen my thighs and build up my stamina.
2 months ago, I finally mustered enough courage to go onto the treadmill. It was in a spur of the moment, I was not attired, clad in my denim shorts without my usual jogging accessories. (music and drink) My boys watched on while I stepped onto the machine, I told them I just wanted to test out my leg. Half of me was worried that I would wreck my knee further, the other half knew that I would never find out if I don't try.
Alas, I lasted half an hour on the treadmill! I was thrilled. I was exhilarated. I could run!
After trying out a couple more times on the treadmill, I finally made it outdoors last Friday for my first 10km run for the year. The beginning of the run was awful; my legs weighed a tonne; I couldn't stop thinking about the bad air I was breathing in due to the haze. It also didn't help that I had to stop multiple times to answer my phone. It was the first day of school holiday and I had snuck out in the morning while the boys were asleep. When they finally woke up, the younger one had to call me multiple times to check on me. Arrrggghh!
My pace was erratic; I couldn't maintain a good pace; my posture was poor and it caused my calf muscles to tense up and ache; it was only much later that my muscles started to ease up but by then I was already gasping for air. I took much longer than usual to complete the run. It was demoralizing; I felt so not ready for the run.
I know I would be a nervous wreck at the starting point and my energy would probably be sapped by the hot sun (the race starts at 7am, which is a tad late, if you ask me). I worry that my heart would thump too hard and my legs might decide to go on strike that day. I could foresee that it is not going to be an easy run and I have thoughts of chickening out.
But I thought of my friend's father who passed away, my relative and my Dad. Things were put into perspective and I was reminded why I am running.
For me it's a 15 km race to the finishing line but for many of the cancer patients, their race is one with an uncertain destination, a race with no finishing line.
My mind was set. This Sunday, come what may, I shall run and complete the race.
I will run.
To honor those who had fought.
To celebrate those who had won.
To remember those who had lost.
To cheer those who are still fighting.

President Muhammadu Buhari and Chief John Oyegun, the National Chairman, have been named joint winners of Verbatim Magazine's Man of the Year 2015.
The magazine also accorded the ruling party, the All Progressives Congress, APC, worthy of an award for winning the 2015 general elections against all odds.
Verbatim, the general interest news magazine published in Abuja by former editors of Newswatch, said in a press statement signed by Tobs Agbaegbu, the Editor-in-Chief/CEO that ''Verbatim editors are of the view that the cap best fits APC and two of its leaders, Buhari and Oyegun because of their peculiar roles in achieving record breaking success during the 2015 general election and for leading Nigerians in charting a new course for democracy''.
Agbaegbu also stated in the release that the details of why Verbatim editors chose APC and its leaders will be read at a high level investiture ceremony which the media outfit is planning to hold in March next year in Abuja to formally crown the award winners.
He said that the party has expressed gratitude to the magazine and has accepted the honour.
He quoted Oyegun, the APC National Chairman as stating that the honour from Verbatim Magazine is a manifestation that the teamwork that led to the unprecedented victory of APC during the 2015 general election is truly appreciated by many Nigerians and the critical media.
''We are happy and indeed overwhelmed by what the management of Verbatim has done and promise to sustain the virtues and qualities which helped the APC win the 2015 general election in Nigeria and to also emerge Verbatim Man-of-the- Year, 2015.
"We look forward to honouring the date fixed for the ceremony and also to mobilize our members nationwide to make the event historic and memorable,'' Oyegun was quoted as saying at the event.

How I Became Dazed and Confused
Nov 7, 2009 Led Zeppelin
Posted by Jason Skinner
I know you might be thinking to yourself, here goes another article about Led Zeppelin. To ease your mind, I recently (within the last three years) became a Zeppelin fan. Why did it take so long for me to actually become a fan of one of the greatest Rock n' Roll bands of all time? Growing up in the MTV generation, it was frowned upon to be cliché and listen to what you were told to listen to. Wow, that is a cliché it itself judging from today's MTV generation.
I took an interest in Led Zeppelin after listening to a couple of vinyl records that an old lady gave me in return for helping her move some furniture. The vinyl's she game me were "Led Zeppelin", "Led Zeppelin II", "Led Zeppelin III" and "The Song Remains the Same". I took them home and laid them on the shelf for a couple of months. Finally, I broke them out and gave them a real listen. I had heard Zeppelin songs before, but listened to them like some people do. I had listened to The Yardbirds and Cream before, how different could they sound from that? It wasn't until I REALLY listened that I came to appreciate the band tremendously.
I instantly fell in love with the riffs. For those of you who do not know what a riff is, I would describe it as a short, oftentimes repeated, memorable phrase that is often pitched low on the ole guitar.
I think it was destiny for me to discover Led Zeppelin so late in music evolution. I had bands shoved down my throat that were "perfect", with no notes out of place and guitar parts that could not be played live like they were on the record.
Jimmy Page's guitar style is blues with a rock n' roll overtone (or visa versa), but was often sloppy and had a live feel. There are so many rumors on how the band actually recorded or how Page got his guitar sounds that I will not even go into that. He even admits to leaving mistakes on the record because it provided the sound that he was going for.
The first album I spun was Led Zeppelin. I was instantly hooked. But I really started to listen when "Dazed and Confused" started. That is a memorable riff. It is a chromatic riff that starts on E up to G and then drops to G F# F E, then on to D C# C B. Eerie in every way, mainly because it is off-scale to the rest of the song, and add Page's doubling the riff up two octaves (I believe) you have an instant classic that sounded like nothing of that time period. Grab a copy of "The Song Remains the Same" and listen to the live version, his adlibbing and hammer-on's will remind you of the essence of rock n' roll.
Add John Paul Jones' bass lick, Robert Plant's voice and John Bonham's constant drive to the song and you have a winner in my book.
I will forever be a Led Zeppelin fan because I skipped the trend and actually listened with my soul wide open. I hope future generations will do the same. Actually listen, not because it is cool, but because you want something that speaks to you…

Seneca students impress at international case study competition
Five Seneca students from the Purchasing and Supply Management and Global Logistics programs captured third place in the Association for Operations Management (APICS) International Student Team Competition.
Over the course of three days, the Seneca team of Rubin Varghese, Dante Carlos, Kate Marynych, Dilshan Abdul-Kayoom and Stephanie Tang went head-to-head against MBA students from five U.S. universities in several rounds of a computer simulated case competition.
In fact, Seneca was the only Canadian postsecondary institution to take part in this contest and finished ahead of teams from the University of Houston, the University of Massachusetts Amherst and St. Cloud State University.
The College's team qualified for the event after winning the APICS Canadian District Case Competition back in March.
For finishing in third, the students won $1,000 and spent the week in Orlando, Florida, where the competition was held.

Beskrivelse: This is the first full-length critical study of country house entertainment, a genre central to late Elizabethan politics. It shows how the short plays staged for th... Læs mere e Queen at country estates like Kenilworth Castle and Elvetham shaped literary trends and intervened in political debates, including whether women made good politicians and what roles the church and local culture should play in definitions of England. In performance and print, country house entertainments facilitated political negotiations, rethought gender roles, and crafted regional and national identities. In its investigation of how the hosts used performances to negotiate local and national politics, the book also sheds light on how and why such entertainments enabled female performance and authorship at a time when English women did not write or perform commercial plays. Written in a lively and accessible style, this is fascinating reading for scholars and students of early modern literature, theatre, and women's history. Læs mindre

Southern hemisphere general circulation and its variability
Some aspects of the variability of the atmospheric general circulation in the Southern Hemisphere, with emphasis on 500 mb, are discussed. Long term trends in the circulation between 1956-66 and 1972-78 are fairly barotropic in structure and consists of substantial height increases over Antarctica and the subtropical oceans, and height falls over the other continents. Interannual variations are also pronounced and show a quasi-biennial fluctuation in the zonal mean fields with a systematic progression of anomalies from low to high latitudes. This pattern is strongest and most consistent in the Australia-New Zealand region and may provide a basis for making long range circulation and weather forecasts on the time scale of three to six months.

For decades, the Internet has developed with a minimum of government interference. The core governance of the medium has been performed by non-governmental entities and overseen by the U.S. government, which has exercised a light regulatory touch. It is no coincidence that the medium has prospered from this benign neglect, growing from a research curiosity into a major force in the world economy and an invaluable venue for the exchange of information.
Most people appreciate this success as a convenience that makes their lives easier and their work more productive. However, the Internet represents something quite different to many foreign governments. Some, including members of the European Union, are frustrated by their inability to regulate or tax it as they desire. Others, such as China and Iran, see the Internet as a threat and are desperate to prevent their citizens from encountering ideas that might undermine their authority or communicating with foreigners. As a result, the United States is coming under increasing criticism that because the Internet is an international resource, no one country should control it.
The dispute will reach the boiling point at the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) in Tunisia on November 16-18. A group of nations led by China, Brazil, India, Cuba, and Iran is expected to demand that supervision of the Internet be shifted from a private organization in the U.S. to the United Nations. WSIS will be a pivotal moment for the future prospects of economic and political freedom. Should the UN gain control of the Internet, it would give meddlesome governments the opportunity to censor and regulate the medium until its usefulness as a vehicle for freedom of expression and international competition is crippled.
The Bush Administration should be applauded for its strong opposition to this proposal, and it should stand firm at the upcoming summit. Congress has also taken note of this issue, and efforts that encourage the President to resist efforts to transfer Internet governance authority from the United States, like Sen. Norm Coleman's (R-MN) Senate Resolution 273, "Expressing the sense of the Senate that the United Nations and other international organizations shall not be allowed to exercise control over the Internet," deserve its support.
How is the Internet Governed?
Current oversight of the Internet is minimal. Operating under a contract from the U.S. Department of Commerce, the non-profit Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) regulates and manages the Domain Name System (DNS) under which Internet Protocol addresses and registration of top-level domains like .org and .com are assigned.
While the U.S. government retains veto power over ICANN's decisions, the U.S. government has been very hands-off with managing ICANN. According to one expert, "Since funding the development of the internet in the 1960s, the U.S. government always maintained its claim to have the rights to oversee [the Internet]. Despite having a legal capacity to do so, the U.S. government never interfered in ICANN's operations and decisions."[1]
ICANN has been called "a truly global organization" not representative of the interest of national governments.[2] Its governance activities have been largely limited to the technical chores of maintaining a common addressing system for the Internet and ensuring that the networks that make up the Internet are able to exchange traffic. It has been impartial in managing its responsibilities and allowing registration of any domain name regardless of its political content.
Contrast the current approach with the much broader definition of "Internet governance" proposed by the UN's Working Group on Internet Governance. In a June report, it defined Internet governance as "the development and application by Governments, the private sector and civil society, in their respective roles, of shared principles, norms, rules, decision-making procedures, and programmes that shape the evolution of the Internet."[3]
This statement implies a much more expansive mission for governance authorities than has been exercised to date. Further, how are the "shared principles" underlying this expanded governance to be determined and who will determine them? Disturbingly, many of the nations pressing for this new kind of Internet governance constitute a rogues' gallery of repressive governments whose primary goal is censoring the Internet to keep their citizens from accessing material deemed threatening to their regimes. As well, they seek to use the medium to disseminate their repressive policies. Iran has been in the vanguard of this effort, and its other key supporters include Saudi Arabia, China, Cuba, and Venezuela.
The UN Façade
In March 2005, China's ambassador to the UN criticized U.S. 'monopolization' of the current system stating, "We feel that the public policy issue of Internet should be solved jointly by the sovereign states in the UN framework."[4]
If this sounds strangely familiar, it should. Nations threatened by freedom have long used the United Nations as a stalking horse for their ambitions to clamp down on freedom of expression. In the 1970s and 1980s, communist and developing nations sought to use the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) to establish a "new world information order" (NWIO) to address an alleged pro-Western bias in global news organizations. NWIO sought to license journalists, create an international code of press ethics, and increase government control over the media. Ultimately, the effort to use UNESCO to constrain freedom of the press contributed to the U.S. decision to withdraw from the organization-a key factor in ending the NWIO effort. In the Internet age, it has become more difficult than ever to curtail the exchange of ideas and information, and this has made repressive regimes more desperate to expand their control over the Internet. They know that the best way to establish that control is through international bureaucracy.
It should surprise no one that China and Iran are among the most vocal proponents of dismantling the American "monopoly" on Internet governance. China's policy toward the Internet provides a chilling illustration of the country's intent.
The Chinese security services and communications ministries have gone to extraordinary efforts to extend their existing media policies to the web.[5] In order to control what people can see on the Internet and filter out politically unorthodox websites, China has built what has been dubbed "the Great Firewall." China has also raised a 30,000-strong army of cyber police to "track, patrol, monitor, and block Web sites and e-mails it deems a threat to society."[6] New regulations issued this past September call for news sites to "report news that is healthy and promotes economic and social progress."[7] Meanwhile, Chinese Internet users who want to start blogs or websites or join online discussion groups must first register with the government and provide their real names and addresses, thereby making it "easier for the cyber police to monitor their activities on the Internet."[8]
In addition to its domestic team of censors, China has reportedly employed the aid of large American technology companies such as Microsoft, Cisco, Google, and Yahoo! to provide technical assistance in setting up a censorship infrastructure. For instance, a Microsoft portal service in China is said to block "bloggers from posting politically sensitive words in Chinese,"including "democracy" and "freedom," and to bar mention of the Chinese yoga sect Falun Gong.[9] By restricting free speech and public discourse domestically, China's version of the Internet "has some concerned that it has established a medium and new censoring tools that other countries can adopt."[10]
China seeks the ability to restrict access to certain web sites, not only in China but across the entire world. As one commentator put it, "Suppose a democracy activist wants to register domain names like downwithchina.com. If China had a say in ICANN affairs, it could push to have such domain names prohibited."[11]Currently, ICANN doesn't exercise such power, but would a UN-run system do so? Even if restrictions are not explicit, they could be imposed indirectly or covertly.
Europe's Position
The European Union commissioner for Internet and media affairs, Viviane Reding, recently gave the effort to strip governance from the Internet from the U.S. greater momentum when she released the EU's own proposal for international governance, which has garnered strong support from China and Iran. Although countries like France and Germany are uncomfortable with their inability to police Internet-such as to prevent the purchase of Nazi paraphernalia-their interest in wresting governance from the U.S. is not based primarily on censorship. Instead, Europe is most interested efforts to regulate and tax Internet transactions. Thus, Reding proposed "the establishment of an arbitration and dispute resolution mechanism based on international law"[12]-in other words, an international bureaucracy to assume governance of the Internet under the aegis of the UN. Indeed, this echoes the July report issued by the United Nations' Working Group on Internet Governance (WGIG) that also recommended a greater UN role.
Many nations have also expressed a desire to utilize this "resource" to supplement government revenues and finance international efforts, including funding for the UN and development assistance. Of late, proposals to tax the Internet have been put forth with increasing frequency in the UN, Europe, and the U.S.[13]
Expanding the regulatory reach of governments in this way raises a number of troubling problems. The unresolved issues include:
How would international regulation over the Internet be implemented without an elaborate legal and institutional framework to establish rules?
How would the proposed bureaucratic authority would be checked and balanced against the rights of Internet users?
What legal jurisdiction and standards would govern the international bureaucracy?
Would the authority be able to levy fees and taxes, and who would control those revenues?
What judicial authority would serve as a venue to arbitrate or enforce disputes?
As noted by Constantin Gurdgiev, a research fellow at the Policy Institute at Dublin University and a director of the Open Republic Institute, "Currently, all actions by ICANN are subject to oversight within one of the most advanced court systems in the world-the State of California. The Brussels proposal will replace ICANN with an unaccountable and uncontrollable multinational bureaucracy [with] unlimited powers to regulate international and national commerce, research and freedom of speech at the hands of the new multinational authority."[14]
The result of a UN-controlled and regulated Internet would be that non-democratic countries that oppose the right to free speech such as China and grasping, anti-market impulses like those of the European Union would have a greater voice in guiding the Internet in a direction away from "freedom, education, and innovation."[15] If the Internet cannot be a government-free zone, it should be governed in a manner that minimizes restrictions rather than imposing international standards that restrict Internet freedom.[16] Given the stakes, the U.S. must stand firm and reject efforts to internationalize governance of the Internet.

Turns out #22336: Move all core Drupal files under a /core folder to improve usability and upgrades doesn't just fail to test correctly, it actually consistently destroys (temporarily) any testbot it's run on. It fills up the /tmpfs database space, which is normally about 42% full.
This is the biggest patch ever tested by the testbots, but I'm not exactly sure how it ruins the tmpfs. However, it's not just this patch that does that. I have to clean up the random testbot occasionally.
It probably also tells us something about #1156976: 0 tests passing is not green - it's not just a display problem, it's most likely a massive testbot failure like this one.
If you look at the test log it still gets way down through thousands of (successful) tests before
Additional uncaught exception thrown while handling exception.
PDOException: SQLSTATE[HY000]: General error: 2013 Lost connection to MySQL server during query: TRUNCATE {cache_field} ; Array ( ) in cache_clear_all() (line 169 of /var/lib/drupaltestbot/sites/default/files/checkout/core/includes/cache.inc).
I had thought this was max_allowed_packet, but since that's adjusted, and since we see the database partition (/tmpfs) being overrun, it seems that may not be the issue.
1. Does simpletest clean up test tables when an exception like this is hit?
2. How should we properly debug this?
Comment #3jthorson CreditAttribution: jthorson commented
Just confirming this happens on failed local testbot runs as well ... running run-tests.sh with the --clean option often enough seems to prevent it.
This would likely affect performance, but can we have PIFR execute run-tests.sh --clean before kicking off a new test run, which should clear out the leftover tables and help keep /tmpfs clean?

Comment #9jthorson CreditAttribution: jthorson commented
The failure caused the testbot to hang until the max-test-length timeout. Executing the following woke it back up ...
drush php-eval 'variable_del("pifr_client_test_start");'
drush php-eval 'variable_del("pifr_client_test");'
Now the above failure may actually have been expected ... the certification process runs 'failed' tests and checks responses to see if the expected failure occurs. However, once the 'Review complete' line hits the log, I expected the testbot to give up on that test ... not halt everything until cron wakes it up 90 minutes later. May need to add a variable_del() somewhere to wake up the testbot after this type of failure.
While possibly a coincidence (because I happened to requeue the test and reset the timer after the 'fail' test and before the 'pass') ... I commented out the code added in the above patch, and the testbot began testing on the next 'per minute' cron run.
In any case, requires more testing. May set up both scratchtestbot and a local testbot to re-certify tommorrow (one with the code and one without) to see if this was actually the issue.
Comment #10jthorson CreditAttribution: jthorson commented
Behaviour in #9 confirmed ... deleting the variables triggered the next test to start. So it appears that when the --clean step fails, the next test is not being triggered.
However, on the next test (without the 'failure' patch), the 'clean' seems to work fine ... so there isn't an issue with the actual code added in this patch - it's more an issue of how the failure case freezes the testing for some period of time. Next question is rather this 'freeze' clears itself over time, or requires manual intervention (ie. the variable_delete).
Going to kick off new certifications for my local testbot and scratchtestbot, and come back in the morning to see if they completed without assistance - it's possible I'm simply not patient enough tonight.
Comment #11jthorson CreditAttribution: jthorson commented
|Needs work
|» Fixed
Both confirmation tests passed, with the --clean code enabled.
Manually clearing the 'freeze' causes the certification test to 'fail', even though all tests pass.
Setting back to fixed, and will investigate the delay as a new issue.

A suicide attacker detonated a bomb on Istanbul's main pedestrian thoroughfare and shopping destination on Saturday, killing five people, the city's governor said. Twenty other people were injured in the attack. The attacker was among the dead.

- Turkey bombing probe targets ISIS as mourners lash out at government
Police sealed off the area and a forensic team was at the scene.
Governor Vasip Sahin said the explosion occurred outside a local government office on Istiklal Street, which is also home to busy cafes and restaurants and foreign consulate buildings.
It is also used by commuters walking to and from Taksim Square and is a popular tourist destination.
Sahin said one of wounded victims died in hospital.
Speaking to reporters in Jerusalem, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the explosion killed at least two Israeli citizens, adding that a third may have died. Turkish officials said one Iranian was also among the dead.
Israeli Foreign Ministry spokesman Emmanuel Nahshon said the two victims were dual Israel-U.S. nationals.
Netanyahu said Israel was trying to determine whether Israelis were targeted, but there was no indication that was the case so far.
A statement released by the White House later in the day said two American citizens were killed in the blast.
"We are in close touch with Turkish authorities and reaffirm our commitment to work together with Turkey to confront the evil of terrorism," White House National Security Council spokesman Ned Price said in a statement.
U.S. State Department spokesman John Kirby says the attack is the latest in a series of what he describes as "indefensible violence targeting innocent people" throughout Turkey.
Kirby says in a statement that "these acts of terrorism only reinforce our determination to support all those across the region working to promote peace and reconciliation."
Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said Saturday's blast was "inhumane" and would not stop Turkey, which has been targeted by Kurdish and Islamic State militants, from fighting "centres of terrorism."
Though there was no immediate claim of responsibility, Netanyahu told reporters early indications point to the Islamic State being behind the attack.
"There is information that it is an attack carried out by an ISIS member, but this is preliminary information, we are still checking it," he said.
Turkey was already on edge following two recent suicide car bomb attacks in the capital, Ankara, which were claimed by a Kurdish militant group, which is an off-shoot of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party, or PKK. The most recent attack, on March 13, targeted a line of bus stops on Ankara's busiest street and killed 37 including two bombers.
Turkey had heightened security in Ankara and Istanbul in the run-up to a Kurdish spring festival of Newroz on March 21, which Kurds in Turkey traditionally use to assert their ethnic identity and demand greater rights.

Women are Drinking More – and Dying More from It?
More young women are dying from excessive alcohol consumption in England and Scotland at a time when both countries are seeing a decline in such deaths among the general population. Sally Marlow of the Institute of Psychiatry at Kings College London tells the BBC that these findings could be the first indicator of a "ticking time bomb" of alcohol problems in women born in the 1970s.
It goes without saying that such a finding is "worrying." Marlow suggests that the "ladette" culture of the 1970s in which women could be "very out there, embracing male behaviours – one of which was excessive drinking" could be a factor in why, in Glasgow, "notable numbers" of women born between 1970 and 1979 were found to have died from alcohol-related causes at a much earlier age than women who had been born in the 1960s. Deborah Shipton, one of the authors of the study, also suggests that cheaper alcohol has played a part, along with "better marketing and longer drinking hours."
The researchers studied men and women of all ages in Glasgow, Liverpool and Manchester from 1980 to 2011, but their findings resonate across the Atlantic. For the past few years, I've taught classes on Friday morning (at a small university in New Jersey) and routinely found myself facing rows of bleary-eyed students. It's open knowledge that Thursday, if not Wednesday, is when the weekend, and the partying, starts.
It's not news that college students drink and binge drink. But as a teacher seeing the effects of all this on young women and men in the classroom, and as a 40-something-ish mother born just before the cut-off date for the British researchers' study, I've wondered if the habits learned in college could carry over to students' later lives.
Older Women Binge Drink, Too
Binge drinking — four or more drinks for women, five or more for men within two hours — is not just for co-eds on Spring Break, as Gabriel Glaser recently wrote in the Wall Street Journal. As a recent study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found, among women in the U.S., 24 percent of those who did so are college-age but ten percent are women between 45 and 64 and three percent are women older than 65.
Glaser suggests that more women in the U.S. are drinking than ever:
In the nine years between 1998 and 2007, the number of women arrested for drunken driving rose 30 percent, while male arrests dropped more than 7 percent. Between 1999 and 2008, the number of young women who showed up in emergency rooms for being dangerously intoxicated rose by 52 percent. The rate for young men, though higher, rose just 9 percent.
Moreover, a Gallup poll has found that "the more educated and well off a woman is, the more likely she is to imbibe." The "drinking mom" has become what Glaser calls a "cultural trope" (e.g., some members of the cast of "Real Housewives" have introduced their own wine labels) but it is one based on realities. I wasn't surprised to learn that there are nearly 650,000 women following "Moms Who Need Wine" on Facebook. I've read many a status update or or tweet in which a friend (after a long day of work, childcare, fighting insurance companies to get medical procedures for children with disabilities covered while struggling to care for children with complex needs) has mentioned the same.
More and Better Treatment Options for Drinking Problems in Women Needed
As Marlow implies and Glaser notes, rising rates of alcohol consumption in women are, in one sense, a "sign of parity." But women need to keep in mind that their bodies process alcohol differently than's men's. Women, due to having more fat and less water, retain alcohol more. As a result, a woman can become intoxicated more quickly than a man even when drinking the same amount of alcohol.
Another real concern is that treatment methods developed specifically for women with drinking problems are still lacking. Alcoholics Anonymous' 12-step program has been "embraced by the nation's courts, much of the medical establishment, insurance companies and popular culture as a one-size-fits-all approach to harmful drinking." AA meetings, though, which require members to submit to a "higher power," refrain from all drinking and "tame their egos," are not, says Glaser, well-suited to women.
Women may have started drinking excessively in the first place due to higher rates of anxiety and depression; to having to make their way climbing the career ladder and "fit in." Glaser describes other treatment options that may include personal counseling and medicine that may be more suited to women's needs and, therefore, more effective.
A very dear friend of my husband's died last month from alcohol-related causes. He was not the first we have known who drank excessively as a young person, only to suffer from the effects in adulthood. His partner, who is a few years younger than me, has said that she has given up alcohol entirely.

metalinear language
Recall that a linear grammar is a formal grammar whose productions are of the form , where is a terminal symbol, and is a word over , with at most one occurrence of a non-terminal symbol.
The concept of a linear grammar can be generalized: define a -linear grammar as a formal grammar such that every production in has one of the three following forms:
where are non-terminal symbols, are terminal words, and is a word over with no more than occurrences of non-terminal symbols, and none of which is the start symbol . Any -linear grammar is context-free.
A language is said to be -linear if it can be generated by a -linear grammar. Note that a language is -linear iff it is linear.
A language is said to be metalinear if it is -linear for some positive integer . In other words, if denotes the family of -linear languages, then the family of metalinear langauges is
It is easy to see we have the following inclusions
where and are the families of regular and context-free languages respectively.
In fact, it can be shown that all of the inclusions above are strict, providing us with an infinite chain of families of languages between the regular languages and the context-free languages.

With the Marlins once again in fire-sale mode, the Yankees might be interested in taking a piece off their hands. According to Erik Boland of Newsday, the Yankees have interest in pitcher Ricky Nolasco who still has one-year and $11.5 million left on his contract.
The Yankees tried to trade for Nolasco back during the 2011 trade deadline, but the Marlins weren't interested in moving him then. Makes sense that they would move him now considering he's going to account for about half of their payroll next year.
The question is — why would the Yankees be interested in him? In parts of seven season in the majors, Nolasco has had all of one good season, when he posted a 3.52 ERA with a 7.9 K/9 and 1.8 BB/9 in 2008. From 2009 on though, he has struggled with a 4.68 ERA. I guess the thing that makes him interesting is that he's always had strong peripherals with a 7.5 K/9 and a 2.0 BB/0 since 2009 and he had a decent 48.4 ground ball percentage last year.
In fact, Nolasco's FIP and xFIP are consistently lower than his ERA. His career ERA is 4.49, but his career FIP is 3.83 and xFIP is 3.78. Perhaps the Yankees see him as somebody who has been a victim of poor defense, bad luck, or both. Still, it seems hard to believe that over such a time span he could get that unlucky.
In comparison, Josh Johnson has a career 3.15 ERA with a 3.20 FIP and 3.57 xFIP. They are not a straight up comparison though since Nolasco strikes out fewer batters and gets fewer ground balls but if one is the victim of bad luck and fielding than the other one should at least be in a similar boat playing on the same team for years.
Overall, Nolasco scares me a bit. I just can't get excited by a guy with a career ERA+ of just 93. Hopefully the Yankees stay away from him.

When the Chicago Bears used the 20th pick in the NFL draft to take an offensive lineman, you knew, you just knew, who would be wearing one of the Vikings' spiffy new uniforms.
It had a destiny feel to it. So many mock drafts had been blown to bits with earlier picks, but it all was falling into place for the Vikings to use the 23rd pick on the most intriguing player in the draft. Yep. Manti Te'o.
The 23rd pick came Thursday evening, April 25, and no Te'o. The Vikings chose Florida defensive tackle Sharrif Floyd.
Well, they still had the 25th pick. They'd use that for the middle linebacker from Notre Dame with the incredible back story. A quick recap: Te'o had a phone romance with a guy he thought was a gal, and it went on until the gal who really was a guy supposedly died. Only there was no death, unless you count Te'o's innocence.
Anyway, the 25th pick came and the Vikings chose Florida State cornerback Xavier Rhodes.
Huh? The Vikings used their two first-round picks on defensive players, which made sense. But Te'o wasn't one of them. What sense did that make?
Then, as Vikings general manager Rick Spielman was reveling in the drafting of Floyd and Rhodes, there was an urgent call for Spielman to return to the draft room. Clearly, a trade was percolating to get the Vikings a third pick in the first round.
They pulled it off, too. Traded second, third-, fourth- and seventh-round picks to the New England Patriots for the 29th overall pick. You don't swap that much without getting someone special, someone intriguing. Twitter was ablaze with speculation and outright claims that the Vikings made the move to draft Te'o.
Other speculation began to surface, postulating that the Vikings were hot for Tennessee wide receiver Cordarrelle Patterson.
After a long wait that included a video tribute to Boston as well as an oral one from former Patriots guard Joe Andruzzi, the Vikings' third pick of the night finally was announced.
It was Patterson.
Te'o stayed on the board through the remainder of the first round.
I asked Spielman what he would have done if Patterson had been chosen a pick or two before the 29th selection. Was there another player he would choose? I was about to ask him whether he would have gone for Te'o, but he was quick with an answer. No. There was nobody else he felt worthy of swapping picks to move into the first round.
What happened with Te'o? Why is he still available heading into the second round? Presumably, it was a combination of how unimpressively he performed in the national championship game against Alabama and the hoax with the phony girlfriend.
Whatever the reason, it's highly unlikely he will be joining the Vikings. With no second- or third-round pick, it would be shocking for Te'o to fall as far as the fourth round.
You can bet the Vikings are likely to use one of their two remaining fourth-round picks on a middle linebacker. It's doubtful they want to go into the season with Erin Henderson switching from weak-side linebacker to the middle.
Spielman didn't seem all that concerned, pointing out even after the draft is completed he still will be making moves. He didn't even hint at it, but perhaps former Bears linebacker Brian Urlacher will be wearing one of those new uniforms.
"We're always evaluating our roster," Spielman said.
As he evaluates the first round, he will be looking at three players with a good chance of starting this season. Spielman claimed he ran a thousand scenarios before the draft, and none of them had Floyd falling as far as the 23rd pick. General managers often say stuff like that, swearing their shock that a player fell to them. This time, there's some truth. Floyd was projected as a possible top-five pick, but he slid all the way to 23rd, according to Spielman, because so many offensive lineman — seven in all — went before the Vikings' first pick.
It was an interesting first round, made even more interesting because Te'o wasn't part of it.

"No," he said, when I said "ooh, you could look at this," when testing him. "I have to do what will get me marks and that won't." So, we turned away from investigating Dutch Elm disease back into the revision texts and the all-important margin with the mark scheme. I hope the A level exams have not turned my bright, maverick son, and all those other children with a thirst for just knowing stuff into mark machines. The tension they are put through at this time is anyway high: you cannot turn on the radio, television or open a paper without the words "A Level" and "miss out" leaping out at you. It does make me sad that there is such a huge pressure on them to succeed, coupled with what my daughter calls "sucking the fun out of everything." How tragic not to get in to your university of choice, and to have spent 2 years of unrelenting work turning away from what might interest you because it doesn't happen to attract any marks.
In the dim and distant past when I did my A levels, I got marks for trotting off down interesting alleys: it was called "reading around the subject" and "broadening your outlook." I got marks (at school at any rate) for being witty, and managed to pass my English language O level at A with a short story that was beyond weird. I think it involved bones.

Healing Through Feeling
During the 2014 Conflict:
- 1,462 Gazan civilians, including 551 children, were killed
- 11,231 Palestinians were injured, including 3,436 children and 3,540 women, 10% suffer permanent disability
- 18,000 housing units were destroyed in whole or part
- Over 50% of Gaza's kindergartens were damaged, and 11 were completely destroyed
- As of June 2015, less that 1% of construction materials necessary to rebuild Gaza and accommodate natural growth had entered Gaza
Source: UN OCHA
Since 2006, children living under siege in Gaza have experienced three major military assaults that have caused the death of loved ones and the destruction of familiar surroundings. The continuous blockade and regular Israeli bombardments create an atmosphere of fear and uncertainty that can lead to ongoing trauma, necessitating the engagement of each suffering child's parents and teachers.
Building a Trauma-Informed System of Care
UPA's Healing Through Feeling program is building a cushion of support around Gaza's children by hiring local mental health practitioners and providing them with cutting-edge training and professional development. In turn, these practitioners forge partnerships with Gaza kindergartens and lead training sessions for parents and teachers to increase awareness of trauma and its symptoms as well as to provide tools and techniques caregivers can use to alleviate trauma in their children.
Our Vision is to use the trauma-informed system of care UPA constructs in Gaza as a model for expanding the program to other areas where we are operational.
Join Us to ensure that the most vulnerable Palestinian children have the support they need to heal. To make a recurring or one-time donation to the UPA Healing Through Feeling Program, visit http://helpupa.org/donate-healing/
Program Partners
In addition to the Gaza Community Mental Health Programme, UPA is proud to partner with the American Psychological Association, which has granted us access to five of their most effective children's books on trauma to translate into Arabic and to use with parents, teachers and of course, children. Learn more about the partnership with the APA here.
