Californians will go to the polls today knowing that their votes for the presidential election will be virtually worthless. President Obama has a double-digit lead over Mitt Romney in this bluest of states, and by the time polls close in California, the presidential race may very well have been decided.
But that doesn't mean there aren't other issues at stake in the Golden State. As they often do, Californians will also be voting on a number of ballot initiatives. And none are more important — or have gathered more attention and campaign money — than the one known as California Proposition 37. If approved, Prop 37 would mandate labels on "raw or processed food offered for sale to consumers if the food is made from plants or animals with genetic material changed in specified ways." It would also prohibit any food with genetically modified (GM) ingredients from being labeled as "natural."
Given that some 85% of the corn crop — which in turn is found in much of the food available at the average supermarket — is genetically modified, passage of Prop 37 would likely mean big changes for labeling and potentially for the American food system as well. In an article for the New York Times Magazine, the writer Michael Pollan argued that passage of Prop 37 would "change the politics of food not just in California but nationally too," proving that the foodies could exert real political as well as economic power. Meanwhile, Big Ag companies like Monsanto are proving just how important stopping Prop 37 is to them by pouring tens of millions of dollars into a campaign to defeat the initiative.
Right now it looks like Big Ag has the edge — recent polls indicate that a narrow majority of Californians are poised to reject Prop 37. That's a shift from earlier in the year, when polls showed that Prop 37 had strong support in the state. The vast fundraising edge belonging to the anti-initiative forces — which also includes companies like DuPont and PepsiCo — is almost certainly the driving factor behind that change, a fact that only confirms suspicions among many progressives that Big Ag wants to keep consumers in the dark over the GM ingredients in their food. They do — ag and biotech companies know there's a deep suspicion among many consumers toward GM crops, a suspicion that supporters of Prop 37 have just as eagerly exploited. But the battle over Prop 37 and GM food was never really about science or health. It's about politics — and who should control the U.S. food system.

Food is the most personal of environmental issues — after all, we vote on it three times a day — which is why GM food is so controversial. Head over to the home page of the Right to Know campaign backing Prop 37, and you'll see item after item about the potential dangers of GM food. It's "Frankenfood," the potentially dangerous product of loosely regulated genetic engineering. A widely publicized French study that was published earlier this fall crystallized those fears — the scientists reported that they found that rats fed a lifetime diet of GM corn developed tumors and suffered organ damage compared with rats fed a non-GM diet.
But here's the thing: mainstream scientists say there is little evidence that there are any harmful health effects associated with consuming GM crops. The National Academy of Sciences, the British Royal Academy, the World Health Organization, the American Medical Association and many other major scientific bodies have said publicly that GM food is not dangerous. Americans have been eating food made from GM crops for years and no one has yet been able to demonstrate a single case of someone actually getting sick from it. (See Keith Kloor's piece on Slate on the scientific view of GM crops.) The board of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) released a letter last month recommending against the special labeling of GM food and quoted from a recent E.U. report on GM crops:
The main conclusion to be drawn from the efforts of more than 130 research projects, covering a period of more than 25 years of research and involving more than 500 independent research groups, is that biotechnology, and in particular GMOs, are not per se more risky than e.g. conventional plant breeding.
Skeptics of GM food can and do argue that those studies may be flawed, that the biotech and ag industries keep tight control over GM research and that there are scientists who dissent from the mainstream view that GM crops aren't dangerous. Some of that may be true — academic scientists have often expressed frustration that corporate patent rights over GM seeds limit researchers ability to freely study them. And there are definitely scientists who are much more skeptical toward GM food than many of their colleagues; molecular biologist Patricia Hunt and 20 other researchers signed a letter recently challenging that AAAS statement on Prop 37, arguing that the group's position "tramples the rights of consumers to make informed choices."
(MORE: A Dark Cloud and a Silver Lining for the World's Fisheries)
But there's no getting around the fact that the majority of the science done so far indicates that GM food poses no known threat to consumers. That puts those warning about the threat of GM food in a very similar position to global-warming skeptics — defying the mainstream scientific consensus, calling into question the quality of the studies that form that consensus and seeking out dissenters who share their doubts. Environmentalism is supposed to be science-based, but the anti-GM-food forces have too often been antiscience.
Does that mean Californians should vote against Prop 37? Not necessarily. For one thing, the anti-initiative forces have also played fast and loose with the facts on some misleading advertisements. The argument made by opponents that Prop 37's passage would cost consumers an extra $400 a year in grocery bills seems to assume that foodmakers would need to replace much of their stock rather than simply relabeling it. And even if the bulk of the science indicates that GM food poses no health threat, why shouldn't it be easier for consumers who want to avoid GM ingredients to do so? The labels may not even make a huge difference — that's the argument put forward by David Roepik, a risk expert, who wonders whether the labels might actually help speed the acceptance of GM foods by making them seem more normal.
(PHOTOS: America Votes: Election 2012)
Ultimately, though, Prop 37 isn't really a battle over science — it's a battle over the politics of food, as Michael Specter of the New Yorker writes:
Here's what the hysteria is really about: corporate control of seeds. There is a feeling, expressed often and with great emotion, that this kind of commodity should not be hawked like software — with annual upgrades you have to buy. Normally, farmers save seeds for the coming season; but G.E. seeds usually only last for one planting. That scares farmers, understandably so — but it is not an issue that will be addressed by this labelling initiative. Monsanto doesn't own the science — nor is science the only thing that matters. If people are unhappy with patent laws they can change them. If they have problems with the morality of an international conglomerate controlling the food we eat, then let's elect people who want to make that more difficult. There are many people working on genetically engineered products that will help sustain people and the environment.
As Specter notes, the labeling initiative on Prop 37 won't do much to change corporate control over the food system. In fact, if the initiative passes, it's likely to be fought in the courts and may simply lead to more confusion. (That's why the liberal political blogger Kevin Drum at Mother Jones wrote recently that he was opposed to Prop 37.) But even though I'm not really worried about GM crops (I think both the proponents and opponents of genetically engineered crops tend to overstate their cases), I can see why a Californian who wants to change how food is made in the U.S. would support Prop 37. "I'm on record saying that this shouldn't be solved on the state level," says Gary Hirshberg, founder of the ultra-organic Stonyfield Farm yogurt company and chairman of the Just Label It group, which supports greater federal regulation of GM crops. "But I still think there's a clear choice to support Prop 37."
Foodies get to exercise their franchise three times a day when it comes to buying and preparing more sustainable meals, but they rarely get a chance to vote on their convictions. Californians are doing so today — and we'll see just how powerful the "dinner party" really is.

The idea of initiating international Olympiads in informatics for school students was proposed to the 24th General Conference of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in Paris by the Bulgarian delegate Professor Blagovest Sendov in October 1987. This plan was included into the Fifth Main Program of UNESCO for the biennium 1988-1989 (Section 05 215). In March 1989 at the "Future Development of International Olympiads for Youth" consultative UNESCO meeting, Professor Pavel Azalov presented a report titled "Introduction to the Olympiad in Informatics". In May 1989, UNESCO initiated and sponsored the first International Olympiad in Informatics (IOI). [Quoted from the IOI'89 and IOI'92 Report.]
The IOI is one of seven international science Olympiads. The primary goal of the IOI is to stimulate interest in informatics (computing science) and information technology. Another important goal is to bring together exceptionally talented pupils from various countries and to have them share scientific and cultural experiences.
The IOI is organized annually in and by one of the participating countries. Each participating country typically sends a delegation of four pupils and two accompanying adults. The pupils compete individually and try to maximize their score by solving a set of informatics problems during two competition days. The problems have been algorithmic programming problems to be solved on a personal computer. Cultural and recreational events are organized on the remaining days.
IOI'2009 is the 21st International Olympiad in Informatics. Following the links below you can visit their web sites as listed on the official IOI web site.

Pre-Retirement Preparedness: Planning for Your Career Exit
This is it. You're zeroing in on your retirement years. You've been planning this for decades, but are you really ready? If you're five to 10 years away from retirement, it's time to start getting specific about your plans after exiting your career. Here's what you should be doing to prepare.
Invest for Growth and Cut Down Debt
Many believe that the two most important things to do for your financial health at this point in your life are investing for growth and cutting down your debt. Wherever possible, maximize your 401(k), IRA, or other retirement plan contributions—and be sure to assess your risk tolerance and diversify your investment portfolios accordingly (a financial professional can help you with this!).
Debt is the last thing that you want hanging over your head in retirement, so it's a good idea to pay it down now, before living on a fixed income. Focus on paying off high-interest loans and credit cards first and foremost, even if it means not maximizing your retirement plan contributions for the time being. Once your highest-interest debts are paid off, you can start contributing more to your retirement savings plans while paying off any other low-interest debt. Have a goal for all debt to be paid off by the time you retire.
Determine a Retirement Budget
By this point in your life, you probably have a good idea of the level of income that makes you most comfortable. While your income might decrease in retirement, it's important to start thinking about your lifestyle and expenses now, so you can properly plan for the funds that you'll need to stay financially secure.
Be specific about your budget. Will you have mortgage or rent payments to make? What will the cost of living look like in your location, or are you planning to move in retirement? Are there unnecessary expenses that you can cut, if need be? Honing in on these details will make it easier for you to set and reach retirement savings goals before you get here.
Set Goals
Even if you already have retirement savings goals that you've been working toward throughout your career, it's a good idea to revisit them and reevaluate. Did you plan for all the expenses in your retirement budget or are there new and unexpected funds you'll need? Think about some of the things you may not have planned for early in your career, like medical expenses, mortgage payments, or higher education funds for your children.
Consider some of the life goals that you'd like to achieve in retirement. Are there destinations you'd like to visit or large purchases you'd like to make? These are things that should be built into your budget and set as specific savings goals. Over the next five to 10 years you can continue to build your retirement nest egg while also saving for the things that you haven't been able to do while working a full-time job.
Establish a Legacy Plan
Planning your budget and goals during pre-retirement also provides a good opportunity to start your legacy plan. This means planning how to distribute your property and assets to your loved ones after your death. Start by creating a list of your assets and where they're kept—this can include things like investment accounts, real estate, and insurance policies.
Once you have your list of assets, you should think about who you want to leave them to, or if there's anything you want to donate to charity. Also, think about any preferences you have for medical care to record in an advance directive. Lastly, contact an expert, either a financial professional or an attorney, to walk you through the steps of setting up your legacy plan.

Steering Inspections and Repairs
If you notice any sloppiness, juddering, floating, or other issues with your steering, make sure to book in with Narrabeen Tyrepower for a check as soon as possible. Even better, to ensure that your steering is maintained to North Narrabeen conditions we recommend regular checks. Schedule them in with your wheel alignment for peace of mind.
Your cars power steering system is very complex and is perhaps the most overlooked of all vehicle systems that require regular maintenance. It is an extremely complicated and sophisticated hydraulic mechanism. The system usually contains a power steering pump, drive belts, bearings, valves, hoses and seals.
Regular servicing is a better option than waiting for things to go wrong and then facing expensive steering repairs. A power steering service involves a safety and performance inspection of the entire system. After this, you should ask for recommendations (if needed) that will make your power steering system safe.
Why are the little rubber bits under my car important to my cars suspension system?
The little rubber bits are called bushes or bushings and are designed to allow flexibility in the suspension system whilst ensuring correct mounting and alignment of individual suspension components. Bushes are used to ensure correct positioning of components such as sway bars, shock absorbers, torsion bars and control arms. Suspension bushes can, aid in cornering, making your driving more exhilarating, reduce the harshness of your vehicles ride and enhance the comfort of your vehicle.
Damage or worn bushes impact on your vehicles tyre wear, steering and braking systems. Checking your vehicles bushes should be part of any safety inspection of your car.

What's here? OMYGAWD! My new computer, that's what's here.
(ouch, I never squeal, that hurt.)
Yeah, I decided on another PC instead of a Mac. I'm an old dawg and I don't like learning new tricks. I have a great time teaching others to roll over and play dead - but having to deal with the 'close' and 'maximize' buttons on the left instead of the right? Fuhgedaboudit. Not for all the hot dogs and peanut butter cookies in the world.
Besides, this one was cheaper than a Mac and I'm cheap frugal.
But isn't it lovely?
Don't you just want to lick it? Go ahead. Visualize yourself running your tongue along its nice, shiny new screen. Ahmmmmmmm.
When the UPS guy showed up at my door with box in hand I was so excited I nearly humped his leg to show my appreciation. But I could clearly see from the expression on his face that that type of behavior would be frowned upon.
Spoil sport. His loss.
This computer could not have come at a better time because two nights ago while, ahem, "borrowing" some music from one of Mr. C's co-workers for my iPod (Don't steal music, kids, because that is wrong: another Public Service Announcement from your friends at Chicky Chicky Baby and "Weird Al" Yankovic), I ran out of hard drive space. No shit, I ran out of space on my computer. That should tell you how chintzy my old Inspiron is. This new one blows the old one out of the water. I won't get into them, but this new Dell has all the bells and whistles that your everyday bored SAHM, with a fetish for cheesy 80s music and gigs of photos of her precious child, would want in a computer.
Sure, I had to sell a lung (guess I shouldn't take up smoking now, eh?) and Chicky will be wearing garbage bags to school one day, but this is one luxury that Mama just can't live without. Which got me thinking. What other luxuries can a
First - My black Coach tote, or as I like to call it, my funeral bag. This bag is perfect for when you need to carry a sippy cup or two, some diapers, a few bags of snacks and a couple of toys but still look fashionable. But in a respectful, I'm-in-mourning-but-don't-I-look-fabulous way.
Second - This year's Christmas present, Frye boots. I call them my shit kickers, however, if anything nasty gets on these bad boys I will plug up the offender's pooper with the tip of the right one. I could ride a horse in these suckers but since that won't be happening anytime soon I'll just have to pretend. Yeehaw!
Third - My Dyson Animal. Is it a luxury if it's necessary?
Fourth - Books! Glorious Books! I promise you, my pretties, that I will not forsake you for the new computer. Much.
(Jenny said on her blog not that long ago that she could tell all that she needed to know about a person by their books and their refrigerator. I don't think you need to be a psychoanalyst to figure out who I am.)
Fifth - Elmo's World DVD's. Worth their weight in gold because they help me maintain my sanity.
Sixth - My dogs. You'd choke on your tongue if you knew how much money I've spent on those freakin' animals. It started when we purchased Fisher as a puppy and it's gone downhill from there. But tell me you could have resisted this face:
And last but not least - Mommy Juice.
'Nuff said.
Since this will be my last post before the new year I will raise my glass of Shiraz to you - hell, I'll raise the whole bottle - and toast to a very Happy New Year for you, my virtual friends and your families. May your cupboards be stocked, your glass always full, your children well behaved and gorgeous, your closets bursting with sexy footwear and your bounties plentiful.

The final death toll has not yet been determined, but the number is high. A hot air balloon carrying tourists on a flight over historic sites around the ancient Egyptian city of Luxor caught fire Tuesday. It then plunged to the ground.
NPR's Leila Fadel reports from Cairo that 19 people may have perished. Al-Jazeera puts the current death toll at 18. According to NBC News, at least 14 people were killed — but another four are said to be missing.
Regardless of the final number, "it was the deadliest hot air balloon accident in the world in at least 20 years," says CNN. Those killed included tourists from Japan, Britain, Belgium and France, according to news reports.
As for the cause, NBC reports that:
"There were conflicting accounts of what happened.
"[Ahmed Aboud, who runs another balloon company and acts as a spokesman for balloon operators in the area] said that gas tanks caught fire and ignited the balloon at about 1,000 feet.
"But an eyewitness, who did not want to be identified, said the balloon was about 12 feet off the ground when a landing rope was thrown to people on the ground. As they grabbed it, the rope wrapped around a gas container, which broke and a fire then started. The witness estimated the balloon then 'shot up 500 meters' (1,640 feet) and the pilot 'jumped out as it was going up.' "
According to The Associated Press, "hot air ballooning, usually at sunrise over the famed Karnak and Luxor temples as well as the Valley of the Kings, is a popular pastime for tourists visiting Luxor. The site of the accident has seen past crashes. In 2009, 16 tourists were injured when their balloon struck a cellphone transmission tower. A year earlier, seven tourists were injured in a similar crash."
Update at 2 p.m. ET. Deadliest Ballooning Accident On Record, AP Says:
The wire service now writes that the death toll is 19 and "surpasses what ballooning experts believed to have been the deadliest accident in the sport's 200-year history, a 1989 crash in Australia that left 13 dead."
It has put together a list — "some of the worst accidents involving recreational hot air balloons":
-- "Feb 26, 2013: A hot air balloon flying over Luxor, in southern Egypt, caught fire and plunged 300 meters (1,000 feet) to the ground, crashing into a sugar cane field and killing at least 19 foreign tourists."
-- "Aug. 23, 2012: Six people died and 26 were injured when a hot air balloon carrying 32 people, mostly tourists including some children, caught fire and crashed near the Slovenian capital of Ljubljana."
-- "Jan 07, 2012: A hot air balloon struck power lines near Carterton, New Zealand and exploded, crashing to the ground and killing all 11 people on board."
-- "Oct. 14, 2009: Four Dutch tourists were killed in Guangxi, China, after pilots lost control and their hot air balloon burst into flames and crashed."
-- "Aug. 26, 2001: Six people including a child were killed when their hot air balloon touched a power line at Verrens-Arvey, in southwestern France."
-- "June 17, 1999: Four passengers were killed when their hot air balloon hit a power line near Ibbenburen, Germany."
-- "Jan. 31, 1996: Five people died in the Bernese Alps, Switzerland when their hot air balloon crashed into a mountainside at a height of 2,400 meters (8,000 feet)."
-- "Aug. 8, 1993: Six people were killed when their balloon hit a power line near Aspen, Colorado, tearing off the basket and sending it plunging 30 meters (100 feet) to the ground."
-- "Dec. 11, 1990: Four people died near downtown Columbus, Ohio, after their hot air balloon hit a television tower and deflated."
-- "Oct. 6, 1990: Four people were killed in a balloon crash at Gaenserndorf, near Vienna."
-- "Aug. 13, 1989: Thirteen people were killed when their hot air balloon collided with another over the Australian outback near the town of Alice Springs. The two balloons were flying at an altitude of 600 meters (2,000 feet) when one plunged to the ground after the collision."
-- "Oct. 3, 1982: An explosion on board a hot air balloon carrying 9 people at a festival in Albuquerque, New Mexico killed four people and injured five."
-- "Aug. 6, 1981: Five people were killed and one seriously injured when a hot air balloon caught fire after touching electrical wires and crashed in a suburb of Chicago."
-- "1785: Two Frenchmen attempting to cross the English Channel in a hot-air balloon were killed when their balloon caught fire and crashed, in possibly the first fatal aviation accident."

And now to the NFL, where these days, it's tough to say where the harder hitting is happening right now; on the field, or off - where players, coaches and the media blasted this past weekend's performance by replacement officials. The regular officials were locked out by the league in June because of a labor dispute. Joining us is NPR sports correspondent Tom Goldman. Good morning.
TOM GOLDMAN, BYLINE: Hi, Renee.
MONTAGNE: Now, remind us - quickly - why we have these lower-tier college and semi-professional officials, working at the highest level of the game?
GOLDMAN: Well, because the regular guys are fighting with the NFL over pay and pension benefits. Pensions appear to be the major sticking point. The NFL wants to make changes that officials say would reduce those benefits. And the officials object to making substantial concessions when the profits are up.
MONTAGNE: Well, the season opened a couple of weeks ago, and the replacements didn't do so badly. But this past weekend, not so good. Why don't you remind us of the damage?
GOLDMAN: All right. It runs the gamut. Penalties were called when there wasn't an infraction, no calls when there should've been one; the officials placed the ball on the wrong yard line after one play finished; they let the clock run after an incomplete pass, which is a no-no.
"Monday Night Football," with its national TV audience, was especially problematic. The announcers talked about the choppy flow of the game, and the extra time it took as officials tried to figure out calls. And officials also just barely controlled what appeared to be a brewing brawl between the Atlanta Falcons and the Denver Broncos. Now, one voice rose above the others, however, and it was because it was so blunt. It was Hall of Fame quarterback Steve Young, who's a commentator on ESPN. Here he is, after Monday night's game.
STEVE YOUNG: Everything about the NFL, now - it's inelastic for demand. There's nothing that they can do, to hurt the demand for the game. So the bottom line is, they don't care. Player safety doesn't matter, in this case because in the end, you're still going to watch the game. We're all going to complain and moan and gripe, and say it's - all these problems. All the coaches will say it; the players will say it. Doesn't matter - let them eat cake.
GOLDMAN: Now, Young is a smart guy. He has a law degree and apparently, knows his French history. And his cynical take on the matter, Renee, is catching on with other critics of the NFL, even if they don't get the cake reference.
MONTAGNE: And what has been the NFL's reaction to all this?
GOLDMAN: A league spokesman - Greg Aiello - responding to Steve Young, told me in an email: Of course, we care; that's what we're working hard with the current officials - he says.
But as far as the criticism, it doesn't appear to be motivating the NFL, or the regular officials, to get the talks going. According to an internal official's memo, their last face-to-face meeting was September 1st. The NFL reportedly has drawn up a five-week schedule for using replacements, if the lockout keeps going.
MONTAGNE: Well, finally, amidst all this controversy, everyone took a moment to pause yesterday and honor NFL filmmaker Steve Sabol. He died of brain cancer. He was 69. Why don't you speak to us, for a few moments, about him?
GOLDMAN: Sabol and his dad, Ed, played a huge role in helping increase the popularity of the league, from the 1960s on, and really mythologizing pro football in this country with their beloved NFL films - with the fantastic camera work, the super-slow motion of footballs spiraling through the air, the great music that all NFL fans can hum, the writing, the god-like voice of the late John Fessenden narrating the films. All created by Steve and Ed Sabol.
MONTAGNE: Tom, thanks very much.
GOLDMAN: You're welcome.
MONTAGNE: NPR sports correspondent Tom Goldman.

Apache HTTP Server Version 2.4
Description: | FastCGI support module for
mod_proxy |
Status: | Extension |
Module Identifier: | proxy_fcgi_module |
Source File: | mod_proxy_fcgi.c |
Compatibility: | Available in version 2.3 and later |
This module requires the service of mod_proxy
. It provides support for the
FastCGI protocol.
Thus, in order to get the ability of handling the FastCGI
protocol, mod_proxy
have to be present in the server.
Unlike mod_fcgid
and mod_fastcgi,
has no provision for starting the
application process; fcgistarter
is provided
(on some platforms) for that purpose. Alternatively, external launching
or process management may be available in the FastCGI application
framework in use.
Do not enable proxying until you have secured your server. Open proxy servers are dangerous both to your network and to the Internet at large.
This module provides no directives.
Remember, in order to make the following examples work, you have to
enable mod_proxy
and mod_proxy_fcgi
ProxyPass "/myapp/" "fcgi://localhost:4000/"
disables connection reuse by
default, so after a request has been completed the connection will NOT be
held open by that httpd child process and won't be reused. If the
FastCGI application is able to handle concurrent connections
from httpd, you can opt-in to connection reuse as shown in the following
ProxyPass "/myapp/" "fcgi://localhost:4000/" enablereuse=on
The following example passes the request URI as a filesystem path for the PHP-FPM daemon to run. The request URL is implicitly added to the 2nd parameter. The hostname and port following fcgi:// are where PHP-FPM is listening. Connection pooling is enabled.
ProxyPassMatch "^/myapp/.*\.php(/.*)?$" "fcgi://localhost:9000/var/www/" enablereuse=on
The following example passes the request URI as a filesystem path for the PHP-FPM daemon to run. In this case, PHP-FPM is listening on a unix domain socket (UDS). Requires 2.4.9 or later. With this syntax, the hostname and optional port following fcgi:// are ignored.
# UDS does not currently support connection reuse ProxyPassMatch "^/(.*\.php(/.*)?)$" "unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock|fcgi://localhost/var/www/"
The balanced gateway needs mod_proxy_balancer
at least one load balancer algorithm module, such as
, in addition to the proxy
modules listed above. mod_lbmethod_byrequests
is the
default, and will be used for this example configuration.
ProxyPass "/myapp/" "balancer://myappcluster/" <Proxy "balancer://myappcluster/"> BalancerMember "fcgi://localhost:4000" BalancerMember "fcgi://localhost:4001" </Proxy>
You can also force a request to be handled as a reverse-proxy request, by creating a suitable Handler pass-through. The example configuration below will pass all requests for PHP scripts to the specified FastCGI server using reverse proxy. This feature is available in Apache HTTP Server 2.4.10 and later. For performance reasons, you will want to define a worker representing the same fcgi:// backend. The benefit of this form is that it allows the normal mapping of URI to filename to occur in the server, and the local filesystem result is passed to the backend. When FastCGI is configured this way, the server can calculate the most accurate PATH_INFO.
<FilesMatch "\.php$"> # Note: The only part that varies is /path/to/app.sock SetHandler "proxy:unix:/path/to/app.sock|fcgi://localhost/" </FilesMatch> # Define a matching worker. # The part that is matched to the SetHandler is the part that # follows the pipe. If you need to distinguish, "localhost; can # be anything unique. <Proxy "fcgi://localhost/" enablereuse=on max=10> </Proxy> <FilesMatch ...> SetHandler "proxy:fcgi://localhost:9000" </FilesMatch> <FilesMatch ...> SetHandler "proxy:balancer://myappcluster/" </FilesMatch>
In addition to the configuration directives that control the
behaviour of mod_proxy
, there are a number of
environment variables that control the FCGI protocol
or ProxyPassMatch
, mod_proxy_fcgi
will not
set the PATH_INFO environment variable. This allows
the backend FCGI server to correctly determine SCRIPT_NAME
and Script-URI and be compliant with RFC 3875 section 3.3.
If instead you need mod_proxy_fcgi
to generate
a "best guess" for PATH_INFO, set this env-var.
This is a workaround for a bug in some FCGI implementations. This
variable can be set to multiple values to tweak at how the best guess
is chosen (In 2.4.11 and later only):

Mercier Mediation and Financial Services
Nova Scotia, Canada
Mediation Services
Mediation is a method of resolving disputes between two or more parties.
"Angela kept me organized, made experience-based suggestions, and was very sensitive to my particular needs, as I have PTSD."
Dennis Manuge
Relationship Mediation Westphal
Is your marriage or family embroiled in a dispute that seems unsolvable?
Experienced mediation services to resolve disputes arising from:
- divorce and separation
- family disagreements
- community disputes
- education related conflict
- wills and estate disputes
- parenting coordination
Whether personal or professional, these are only some of the ways relationships in conflict can be costly. And if the conflict makes its way to litigation, the financial and emotional consequences can cost even more.
Since the 1990s, the Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) method has been a proven way to guide couples and families through difficult financial challenges. Designed to defuse conflict and promote communication, ADR methods avoid the hostilities litigation can create. Also, they preserve important assets litigation can consume.
A mediator helps create a settlement agreed to by all. Mediators do not give legal advice, take sides, or pass judgment.
Call Now 902-830-7511
Rock-Paper-Scissors doesn't work.
No one will be completely satisfied with a resolution that doesn't meet some of their needs. Mediation is a non-binding and legitimate alternative to the traditional route with lawyers and court.
- Less emotionally damaging
- Confidential and private
- Usually less expensive and more timely than going to court
- Results account for the interests of all parties
- Relationships are less likely to be damaged more
- Because parties develop their own solutions, there is more buy-in to make the arrangement last
- A unique agreement for your situation
Get the affordable and effective expertise you need without the cost and hassle of litigation.
Angela Mercier is a Qualified Mediator (Q.Med) and Certified Divorce Financial Analyst.
Along with her expertise and experience, she also brings compassion and commitment to the table. Angela helps clients resolve financial disagreements in ways that are non-adversarial, fair and in the best interests of all.

Exporter - Implements default import method for modules
In module ModuleName.pm:
package ModuleName;
require Exporter;
@ISA = qw(Exporter);
@EXPORT = qw(...); # symbols to export by default
@EXPORT_OK = qw(...); # symbols to export on request
%EXPORT_TAGS = tag => [...]; # define names for sets of symbols
In other files which wish to use ModuleName:
use ModuleName; # import default symbols into my package
use ModuleName qw(...); # import listed symbols into my package
use ModuleName (); # do not import any symbols
The Exporter module implements a default import
method which many modules choose to inherit rather than implement their own.
Perl automatically calls the import
method when processing a use
statement for a module. Modules and use
are documented in perlfunc and perlmod. Understanding the concept of modules and how the use
statement operates is important to understanding the Exporter.
Do not export method names!
Do not export anything else by default without a good reason!
Exports pollute the namespace of the module user. If you must export try to use @EXPORT_OK in preference to @EXPORT and avoid short or common symbol names to reduce the risk of name clashes.
Generally anything not exported is still accessible from outside the module using the ModuleName::item_name (or $blessed_ref->method) syntax. By convention you can use a leading underscore on names to informally indicate that they are 'internal' and not for public use.
(It is actually possible to get private functions by saying:
my $subref = sub { ... };
But there's no way to call that directly as a method, since a method must have a name in the symbol table.)
As a general rule, if the module is trying to be object oriented then export nothing. If it's just a collection of functions then @EXPORT_OK anything but use @EXPORT with caution.
Other module design guidelines can be found in perlmod.
If the first entry in an import list begins with !, : or / then the list is treated as a series of specifications which either add to or delete from the list of names to import. They are processed left to right. Specifications are in the form:
[!]name This name only
[!]:DEFAULT All names in @EXPORT
[!]:tag All names in $EXPORT_TAGS{tag} anonymous list
[!]/pattern/ All names in @EXPORT and @EXPORT_OK which match
A leading ! indicates that matching names should be deleted from the list of names to import. If the first specification is a deletion it is treated as though preceded by :DEFAULT. If you just want to import extra names in addition to the default set you will still need to include :DEFAULT explicitly.
e.g., Module.pm defines:
@EXPORT = qw(A1 A2 A3 A4 A5);
@EXPORT_OK = qw(B1 B2 B3 B4 B5);
%EXPORT_TAGS = (T1 => [qw(A1 A2 B1 B2)], T2 => [qw(A1 A2 B3 B4)]);
Note that you cannot use tags in @EXPORT or @EXPORT_OK.
Names in EXPORT_TAGS must also appear in @EXPORT or @EXPORT_OK.
An application using Module can say something like:
use Module qw(:DEFAULT :T2 !B3 A3);
Other examples include:
use Socket qw(!/^[AP]F_/ !SOMAXCONN !SOL_SOCKET);
use POSIX qw(:errno_h :termios_h !TCSADRAIN !/^EXIT/);
Remember that most patterns (using //) will need to be anchored with a leading ^, e.g., /^EXIT/
rather than /EXIT/
You can say BEGIN { $Exporter::Verbose=1 }
to see how the specifications are being processed and what is actually being imported into modules.
Exporter has a special method, 'export_to_level' which is used in situations where you can't directly call Export's import method. The export_to_level method looks like:
MyPackage->export_to_level($where_to_export, @what_to_export);
where $where_to_export is an integer telling how far up the calling stack to export your symbols, and @what_to_export is an array telling what symbols *to* export (usually this is @_).
For example, suppose that you have a module, A, which already has an import function:
package A;
@ISA = qw(Exporter); @EXPORT_OK = qw ($b);
sub import { $A::b = 1; # not a very useful import method }
and you want to Export symbol $A::b back to the module that called package A. Since Exporter relies on the import method to work, via inheritance, as it stands Exporter::import() will never get called. Instead, say the following:
package A; @ISA = qw(Exporter); @EXPORT_OK = qw ($b);
sub import { $A::b = 1; A->export_to_level(1, @_); }
This will export the symbols one level 'above' the current package - ie: to the program or module that used package A.
Note: Be careful not to modify '@_' at all before you call export_to_level - or people using your package will get very unexplained results!
The Exporter module will convert an attempt to import a number from a module into a call to $module_name->require_version($value). This can be used to validate that the version of the module being used is greater than or equal to the required version.
The Exporter module supplies a default require_version method which checks the value of $VERSION in the exporting module.
Since the default require_version method treats the $VERSION number as a simple numeric value it will regard version 1.10 as lower than 1.9. For this reason it is strongly recommended that you use numbers with at least two decimal places, e.g., 1.09.
In some situations you may want to prevent certain symbols from being exported. Typically this applies to extensions which have functions or constants that may not exist on some systems.
The names of any symbols that cannot be exported should be listed in the @EXPORT_FAIL
If a module attempts to import any of these symbols the Exporter will give the module an opportunity to handle the situation before generating an error. The Exporter will call an export_fail method with a list of the failed symbols:
@failed_symbols = $module_name->export_fail(@failed_symbols);
If the export_fail method returns an empty list then no error is recorded and all the requested symbols are exported. If the returned list is not empty then an error is generated for each symbol and the export fails. The Exporter provides a default export_fail method which simply returns the list unchanged.
Uses for the export_fail method include giving better error messages for some symbols and performing lazy architectural checks (put more symbols into @EXPORT_FAIL by default and then take them out if someone actually tries to use them and an expensive check shows that they are usable on that platform).
Since the symbols listed within %EXPORT_TAGS must also appear in either @EXPORT or @EXPORT_OK, two utility functions are provided which allow you to easily add tagged sets of symbols to @EXPORT or @EXPORT_OK:
%EXPORT_TAGS = (foo => [qw(aa bb cc)], bar => [qw(aa cc dd)]);
Exporter::export_tags('foo'); # add aa, bb and cc to @EXPORT
Exporter::export_ok_tags('bar'); # add aa, cc and dd to @EXPORT_OK
Any names which are not tags are added to @EXPORT or @EXPORT_OK unchanged but will trigger a warning (with -w
) to avoid misspelt tags names being silently added to @EXPORT or @EXPORT_OK. Future versions may make this a fatal error.

Good fences make good neighbors. At least that's how the saying goes.
Planning to install a fence of your own? While it might seem like a straightforward DIY project, rookie mistakes could quickly turn your fence into an eyesore (and an expensive one, at that).
Don't let this simple project turn into more of a headache than a home improvement. With a little help and proper planning, you can be enjoying your new fence in just a few days. Then, you'll have some extra privacy and a place for pets to roam free for years to come.
See also: The Ultimate Backyard Safety Checklist
Not sure where to start? Here's our beginner's guide to installing your own fence:
1. Develop a plan.
A fence can be a functional and beautiful part of your home. But it requires planning. Save time later by hashing out the details now. Before digging that first post hole, be sure to:
- Check utility lines. You don't want your shovel to take out the phone line. Before you dig, request that your utility company sends someone to mark any underground lines within your proposed fencing area. All it takes is a phone call – and it's free! Learn more in our post on why to call 811 before you dig.
- Know your codes. When building a fence, permits may be required depending where you live. And the regulations for building your fence could change based on several factors including the type of fence, location, height, and construction materials. Call your local zoning department (or your homeowners association, if applicable) to make sure you understand any applicable laws or codes before you build.
- Notify your neighbors. Many homeowners may find it awkward to tell their neighbors about the installation of a fence. (After all, you're literally building a wall between your homes.) But having a conversation about your plans early on could prevent disputes from arising once construction begins. Need advice? Read more about how to keep your cool when handling neighbor disputes.
2. Choose your material.
What your fence is made of will affect its appearance and price. Every product has pros and cons, so it often comes down to why you're building in the first place.
- Wire, mesh, and chain: By far the most economical option, these materials cost approximately $1 to $6 per linear foot. This is a great choice for security, marking property lines, and keeping in animals. On the flip side, a chain link fence doesn't help much with privacy, and some see it as less visually appealing than wood or vinyl. .
- Wood: One of the most popular products for fencing, wood is suitable for privacy fencing and has a natural look. Although maintenance is required, it can last for decades with regular upkeep and staining.
- Vinyl: Lightweight, affordable, and durable, vinyl fences can mimic the appearance of wood or plastic. They're known to be easy to set up and maintain, but are not great for security.
3. Start building.
After you map it out, grab your tools and double-check your math. Most installations include these basic steps:
- Measure and mark. Determine where your posts will go, accounting for any required property line setbacks. Space your posts evenly for the panel installation and be sure to account for elevation changes.
- Dig holes for posts. This part takes some muscle, whether you're using a manual post hole digger or renting a powered auger. Generally speaking, the hole depth should be about one-third of your post height. For example, a 6-foot post needs a hole that's 2 feet deep. Be sure to check any local laws or codes about fence height and depth. Requirements may differ in areas with high wind or very cold winters, where posts may need to extend below the frost line.
- Secure posts in cement. Anchoring your posts in concrete will keep your fence standing tall. Drop in your post and make sure it's level, then pour in the concrete. Be sure to allow 24 hours for the cement to cure.
- Attach panels to posts. Check that panels are secure and aligned correctly. Double-check if your fence has a "finished" side – this usually looks best facing out, or else it may look like your fence was installed backwards.
- Install gates and hardware. Hardware should be selected based on the construction materials you're using and installed according to the manufacturer's instructions.
4. Make sure you're covered.
Once your fence is complete, it's a good idea to contact your Erie Insurance agent and let them know you've made an update to your home. A home improvement project, such as a fence, might increase the value of your home and how much homeowners insurance you need. By getting to know you, your local ERIE agent can make sure you have coverage that fits both your life and your budget. Local service and personal attention is what we're all about.

Calif. searched for ex-cop suspected of killing 3
Published 12:00 am Friday, February 8, 2013
BIG BEAR LAKE, Calif. (AP) — A police officer and a pair of soon-to-be newlyweds were dead.
Another officer, riddled with bullets, was in intensive care.
Two more police were shot at but got away, one of them grazed by gunfire. Two innocent and uninvolved women were shot by police who feared a dangerous suspect.
And despite a massive manhunt that touched three states and Mexico, the heavily armed ex-Los Angeles police officer believed behind the rampage, who promised in his rambling writings to bring "warfare" to police and their families, remained free.
"We don't know what he's going to do," said Cindy Bachman, spokeswoman for the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department, one of many law enforcement agencies whose primary purpose has become finding Christopher Dorner, 33. "We know what he's capable of doing. And we need to find him."
As darkness fell, the search that had extended across California from the U.S.-Mexico border through Nevada, from suburban streets to military bases, had narrowed in on a cold, snowy mountain 80 miles east of Los Angeles where Dorner's burned truck was found.
But tracks that surrounded the truck and hours of door-to-door searching around Bear Mountain Ski Resort had turned up nothing, and authorities conceded that the whereabouts of Dorner, also a former Naval reservist and onetime college running back, remained a mystery.
"He could be anywhere at this point," said San Bernardino County Sheriff John McMahon, who had 125 deputies and police officers and two helicopters searching the community of Big Bear Lake, where light snow fell early Friday morning.
The saga began Sunday night, when Monica Quan and her fiance, Keith Lawrence, were found shot in their car at a parking structure at their condominium in Irvine. Quan, 28, was an assistant women's basketball coach at Cal State Fullerton. The couple had no known enemies and there was no evidence of robbery.
The following morning in National City, Calif. near San Diego, some of Dorner's belongings, including police equipment and paperwork with names related to the LAPD, were found in a trash bin.
The LAPD was notified of the find, and two days later informed Irvine police of an angry manifesto written by a former officer and posted on Facebook.
"We didn't have it very long," Irvine police Lt. Julia Engen said. "Obviously it took us a while to digest."
The rant promised to "bring unconventional and asymmetrical warfare" to police and named among many others Randal Quan, a former LAPD captain turned attorney who represented Dorner in his unsuccessful attempts to keep the police job he lost in 2008 for making false statements.
Randal Quan was also Monica Quan's father.
"Bing bing bing, the dots were connecting," Engen said. "These names are somehow associated to Mr. Quan, who just lost his daughter the prior day. The dots connected. OK, now we've got a name of somebody to look at. That's when the discovery was connected."
On Wednesday night, Irvine and Los Angeles police announced they were searching for Dorner, declaring him armed and "extremely dangerous." Hours later, they learned they were all too correct.
Two LAPD officers en route to provide security to one of Dorner's possible targets were flagged down by a resident who reported seeing the suspect early Thursday at a gas station in Corona. The officers then followed a pickup truck until it stopped. The driver, believed to be Dorner, got out and fired a rifle, police said. A bullet grazed an officer's head.
Later, two officers on routine patrol in neighboring Riverside were ambushed at a stoplight by a motorist who drove up next to them and opened fire with a rifle. One died and the other was seriously wounded but was expected to survive, said Riverside police Chief Sergio Diaz.
He said news organizations should withhold the officers' names because the suspect had made clear that he considers police and their families "fair game."
Thousands of heavily armed officers patrolled highways throughout Southern California, while some stood guard outside the homes of people police said Dorner vowed to attack. Electronic billboards, which usually alert motorists about the commute, urged them to call 911 if they saw him.
At a news conference held amid heightened security in an underground room at police headquarters, Los Angeles Police Chief Charlie Beck urged Dorner to surrender.
"Of course he knows what he's doing; we trained him. He was also a member of the Armed Forces," he said. "It is extremely worrisome and scary."
While in the Naval Reserves, Dorner earned a rifle marksman ribbon and pistol expert medal. He was assigned to a naval undersea warfare unit and various aviation training units, according to military records, taking a leave from the LAPD to be deployed to Bahrain in 2006 and 2007.
He wrote that he would "utilize every bit of small arms training, demolition, ordinance and survival training I've been given," the manifesto read.
The nearly 10,000-member LAPD, a force Dorner was part of from 2005 to 2008, dispatched officers to protect more than 40 potential targets, including police officers and their families. The department also pulled officers from motorcycle duty, fearing they would make for easy targets.
The hunt also led to two errant shootings in the pre-dawn darkness Thursday.
LAPD officers guarding a target named in the manifesto shot and wounded two women in suburban Torrance who were in a pickup truck, authorities said. Beck said one woman was in stable condition with two gunshot wounds and the other was being released after treatment.
"Tragically we believe this was a case of mistaken identity by the officers," Beck said.
Minutes later, Torrance officers responding to a report of gunshots encountered a dark pickup matching the description of Dorner's, police said. A collision occurred and the officers fired on the pickup. The unidentified driver was not hit and it turned out not to be the suspect vehicle, they said.
In San Diego, where police say Dorner tied up an elderly man and unsuccessfully tried to steal his boat Wednesday night, Naval Base Point Loma was locked down Thursday after a Navy worker reported seeing someone who resembled Dorner.
Navy Cmdr. Brad Fagan said officials believe Dorner had checked into a base hotel on Tuesday and left the next day without checking out. Numerous agencies guarded the base on Thursday. Fagan said Dorner was honorably discharged and that his last day in the Navy was last Friday.
Nevada authorities also joined the search, because Dorner owns a house nine miles from the Las Vegas Strip, according to authorities and property records.
In Big Bear, Dorner's pickup was taken to be processed at a crime lab Thursday evening and examined by investigators from multiple agencies.
Jackie Holohan, who runs a vacation rental company in Big Bear Lake, said visitors weren't dissuaded from coming to the mountain resort despite the intensive manhunt.
"The only ones who have called want to make sure if they can get up the mountain," Holohan said.
The manhunt was affecting some local businesses. A couple of fast food restaurants shut their doors and only took drive-in customers, and the main shopping avenue had light foot traffic.
Sheriff's officials said deputies and officers had combed some 200 homes in the area and intended to search some 200 more, with extreme wariness knowing they were likely to be treated as targets as well as hunters.
Dorner's writings suggested he did not expect to live through the ordeal.
"Unfortunately, I will not be alive to see my name cleared," he wrote at one point in his manifesto, later saying, "Self-preservation is no longer important to me. I do not fear death as I died long ago."

Whether it's caused by a flash flood or a burst pipe, water damage is often unpredictable. And as a business owner, it can seriously impact your day-to-day operations and bottom line.
But in many cases, there are proactive steps you can take to prevent critical delays or destruction to your property.
Here are seven tips to help protect your business from common sources of water damage:
- Check for signs of plumbing problems. If you've noticed a significant change to your water bill, chances are a pipe or plumbing fixture is to blame. Start by inspecting your building for damp areas of walls, floors, or ceilings. The growth of mold or mildew is also a good warning sign that a pipe is corroded or leaky. Whatever you find, be sure to get it fixed as soon as possible.
- Install a water sensor. You can pick up a water sensor at almost any home improvement store. When installed, you'll get notified immediately in the event of a water leak so you can limit the amount of damage done. Most sensors can connect to your smartphone or tie in to your business security system, allowing you to receive an alert even if you're offsite.
- Examine the condition of open areas. Water from the outside is another common source of interior damage. Check around your windows, doors, and any other areas that are exposed to the elements. If you see gaps or cracks, reseal them with waterproof caulking. And repaint window or door trim to add an extra layer of protection against rotting wood.
- Purchase sandbags for severe weather situations. Is your business located in a coastal area or one that's prone to damage from tropical storms and hurricanes? Consider stocking up on sandbags in the event of a weather emergency. They're a great tool to help divert water and debris away from your building in heavy rain.
- Inspect your roof regularly. Have a professional examine your roof to identify areas that may be susceptible to leaking. If you have a flat roof, consider getting it sealed regularly as an extra barrier of protection. And don't forget to clean your gutters so rainwater flows freely.
- Observe low-lying areas susceptible to drainage issues. Look for areas outside of your building that might be susceptible to water buildup if the ground becomes too saturated. Consider hiring a landscaper or a drainage professional to inspect the area.
- Install a sump pump. Give your building an avenue to drain water from the inside out with a sump pump. And be sure to purchase a battery-powered backup system to keep it running in the event of a power outage. If you aren't sure about installing a pump yourself, hire a professional to help.
At Erie Insurance, we understand rainy days can bring the unexpected to your business. But they don't have to dampen your whole future. You can count on your local ERIE agent to help you customize your business insurance policy so you're ready for whatever life throws your way.
