Many people think that their work is done once the documents are signed. However, an estate plan can only be effective if it is properly implemented. What good is your Last Will & Testament if, after you die, no one knows it exists or it cannot be found? There are a few simple steps to ensure that your wishes will be carried out upon your disability or death.
Create a document or inventory that recites your pertinent financial information. Identify your financial assets. Be sure to include all bank and investment accounts, individually owned investments (stocks, bonds and mutual funds that are not held in an account), retirement accounts, real estate, insurance policies and employee benefits.
Also, list any outstanding liabilities you may have such as mortgages, loans and credit card debt. Include your full name, other or previous names, date of birth, and Social Security number. You may also wish to specify the name and contact information for your lawyer, accountant, insurance agent, and other financial representatives. It is important to update your inventory regularly, as changes occur.
Determine where to store your important documents. This includes estate planning documents, life insurance policies, deeds for real property, financial records, tax returns, and your inventory of financial information.
When determining where to keep your legal and financial documents, it is important to select a location that your family can locate and that they will have access to after your death. While it is not necessary to disclose the specifics of your estate plan, you want to be sure that a trusted family member or friend knows what documents comprise your plan and where they are located.
In general, your original Will should not be stored in a safe deposit box because it will be unavailable, after your death, as the bank will seal the box. Instead, you may want to consider leaving the original Will with your attorney for safekeeping. If you decide to retain your original Will, it is advisable to store it in a waterproof and fireproof container.
Advise your loved ones that you have implemented your plan. Inform a family member, such as the nominated executor or trustee as to the whereabouts of your documents.
Following these simple steps will not only alleviate some of the stress the family faces when a loved one becomes ill or passes away, but will also help to ensure that your wishes are faithfully accomplished.

Man, 85, dead after fishing vessel capsizes near Shinnecock Inlet
An 85-year-old veteran boat captain died and another fisherman clung to a flotation device until he was rescued, after the commercial fishing vessel they were aboard capsized Sunday near Shinnecock Inlet.
The body of Stian Stiansen of East Quogue was recovered along a beach near the inlet some 45 minutes after his 45-foot stern trawler capsized in 8-foot waves and high winds about 2 p.m., authorities said.
It is not known if the weather played a role in the accident.
Scott Finne of Eastport, who also was aboard the Pauline IV -- named after Stiansen's late wife, according to friends -- survived after rescuers pulled him from rough waters off the inlet 15 minutes after the boat capsized, said U.S. Coast Guard Petty Officer 1st Class Anthony Kozak.
Kozak said that while water conditions were choppy and there was a small-craft advisory in effect, there was nothing that would have prohibited a vessel of that size from going out safely.
"Those guys are professionals, they do that for a living," Kozak said. "It's hard to say what could have gone wrong for that to happen."
The vessel washed ashore along with debris, and Stiansen's body was found nearby, according to Southampton police officials. They responded to the scene along with the Coast Guard, the Southold police marine unit, a Suffolk police helicopter surveying the area and a private Sea Tow boat whose operators pulled Finne from the water.
At the Shinnecock commercial dock at Hampton Bays, fisherman Matt McClain said Stiansen was well-known in local fishing circles.
McClain said one witness told him that she saw the boat struggling as it tried to re-enter the inlet after fishing out east.
"It's the way he probably would have wanted to go," said McClain. "His whole life was fishing."
Emerson Hasbrouck, senior natural resources specialist for the Cornell Cooperative Extension Marine Program in Riverhead, said he had known Stiansen for 38 years, and many regarded Stiansen "as a pioneer in the Hampton Bays."
"I have a master's degree in fisheries, but over the years Stian taught me many things about fisheries that one will never learn in a college course or textbook," Hasbrouck said.
Stiansen, the son of Norwegian immigrants, mentored novice fishermen, Hampton Bays fisherman Bill Reed said.
"Stian had the big-picture mentality that he wanted to see younger fishermen succeed," Reed said. "He took on a fatherly role. We called him 'Doctor Stian' because he was so smart."
Reed said that although Stiansen owned his home and no longer needed to work, he still ventured out to fish because of an ingrained work ethic.
"He grew up in the Depression, and I think those lessons stuck with him," Reed said.
Dave Lofstad, a Hampton Bays commercial fisherman, said it was Stiansen who got his family involved in commercial fishing by hiring and training Lofstad's family to work a series of other boats he owned.
"He was a very quiet individual, but he was very well known and respected," Lofstad said.
Lofstad said he spoke with Finne after the accident and that Finne asked him to find the orange poly ball he used as a float that had been recovered.
Poly balls are used in fishing to keep lines afloat and easily retrievable.
"He said he grabbed a hold of a poly ball, and it's what helped keep him alive," Lofstad said.
A relative who answered Finne's home phone number Sunday night said he was unavailable.
Coast Guard officials said they will investigate why the fishing boat capsized.

It has been reported that most people spend 90% of each day indoors1. For infants, the elderly, persons with chronic diseases, and most urban residents of any age, the proportion is probably higher. In addition, the concentrations of many pollutants indoors can exceed those outdoors. The indoor environments of highest concern are those involving prolonged, continuing exposure — the home, school, and workplace. In the United States over 2/3 of that time (~65%) is spent at home. Residential properties include both single family and multi-tenant residences. The American Lung Association has indicated that 90% of homeowners were not aware that indoor environmental quality (IEQ) was a problem. In recent years the public's awareness and level of concern over IEQ has increased due to the media and educational efforts from public agencies.

Vice Point is a more middle class and residential area of Vice Beach, covering the remaining areas of the island at the north, and consisting of larger apartment buildings and hotels aligned along the shore as well as medium sized homes and smaller apartment complexes inland. The part of Vice Beach that is located in the area includes a dirtbike track (only in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City).
The North Point Mall (known as Vice Point Mall in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories), is a large mall located in the north end of Vice Point, which is accessible by the player. The mall, among others, contains a few eateries, as well as two weapons stores and a clothing pickup. In the GTA Vice City Stories rendition, the layout is essentially the same, though some of the businesses that are in 1986 are not there in 1984. There is only one weapons store. Vice Point is the most populous neighborhood in the city.
The Malibu Club is situated on southern Vice Point. A police department is also located further north, as is another hospital, along with the El Swanko Casa safehouse.
Vice Point is based on Miami Beach and the neghboorhoods north of South Beach, with large hotels lining the beach and middle-to-upper class development furthur inland.

NBA Deletes Evidence Of Players From All Team Websites Due To Intellectual Property
from the wow deptAs you may have heard, the NBA and the NBA Players Association did not hit their deadline last night to reach a new collective bargaining agreement, and thus began a lockout/work stoppage. Of course, we're not a sports blog, so what's interesting about that for us? Well.... apparently over the last few days, the webmasters for all of the NBA team websites have been scrambling like mad, because they believe that when the players are locked out, there can be no mention or image of any player on any NBA webpage:
That's because the moment the clock strikes midnight on the current CBA, all those images and videos of NBA players have to disappear off NBA-owned digital properties. Depending on how you interpret "fair use," the prohibition could include the mere mention of a player's name on an NBA-owned site, though different teams have different interpretations of this particular stipulation.That's from ESPN... who doesn't give any more detail as to what it is they actually think would be infringing here. It's certainly not copyright, even though that's implied. There's no copyright in names. And the copyright on the images would be held by whoever took the images, not the players. I'm assuming this is more of a publicity rights issue, which we've been discussing a lot lately. But those are generally based on a patchwork of state laws. And, even so, I can't quite see how that would prevent teams from accurately listing players who were on the team. That's factual information. But not according to the teams:
There are additional gray areas that are still up for discussion: What about a photo of a Lakers fan wearing a No. 24 Kobe Bryant jersey? What about a retrospective feature on the John Stockton-Karl Malone Jazz teams? Do tweets from the team's official Twitter feed that mention a player and/or link to an image need to be deleted? How about Facebook posts?It looks like those "new" sites are in place. I've looked around at a few team sites, and while they may have old players (from decades ago), most traces of modern players have disappeared. They do list the names of players on the team under the "team" tab, but otherwise, the players seem almost entirely absent. And for what reason? Intellectual property shouldn't be part of a labor fight. It's got nothing to do with that. The whole thing just seems silly.
Nobody seems to know for certain the definitive answers to these questions and the criteria seem to be arbitrary. According to more than one team website staffer, the cutoff for images of retired players right now stands at 1992-93 -- Shaquille O'Neal's first season in the league. And social media is an area they're still grappling with as the deadline approaches.
However strict the boundaries, overhauling the architecture of these sites is a painstaking process that has a lot of talented web people around the league very stressed out. The NBA has built and furnished each team with a website "wire frame" that will take the place of the existing, much more sophisticated site. The wire frame is a rudimentary version of the site, without a lot of the snazzy technology we've grown accustomed to seeing. As a result, each of the 30 team sites will look virtually identical.

Middlesbrough 0 Chelsea 2
Beleaguered Chelsea boss Rafael Benitez earned a little respite as his players booked themselves a mouth-watering FA Cup quarter-final trip to Manchester United.
A day after the manager had moved to play down reports of a rift with skipper John Terry, he saw the England defender lead his side to a 2-0 victory at npower Championship Middlesbrough and a place in the last eight.
The Blues took the lead when midfielder Ramires' 51st-minute shot flicked Fernando Torres, who knew little or nothing about it, and flew past keeper Jason Steele before the impressive Victor Moses made sure with a close-range finish 15 minutes from time.
But the European champions were made to work hard for their victory as Boro largely contained them before the break to give the locals among a crowd of 27,856 at the Riverside Stadium hope of a shock result.
However, a much-changed Chelsea gradually eased through the gears to ensure their progression and keep the prospect of a trophy at the end of the season on the horizon.
Benitez made no fewer than eight changes to the side which lost 2-0 at Manchester City at the weekend, with only keeper Petr Cech, defender Branislav Ivanovic and midfielder Ramires surviving, and that meant a return for Terry and a first senior start for 18-year-old Dutchman Nathan Ake.
However, as opposite number Tony Mowbray predicted, he still fielded a side packed with internationals and one capable of doing real damage.
But in the event, Chelsea turned in a tepid first-half display despite starting brightly enough with the pace and power of Moses down the right and the invention of Oscar causing problems for the Teessiders.
Oscar's eighth-minute cross was just too strong for Moses and Torres was similarly over-eager two minutes later as he attempted to pick out Yossi Benayoun in the middle.
But it took an important block by Nicky Bailey to deny Oscar with 12 minutes gone after Moses had exploded past full-back George Friend and squared for the Brazilian to shoot.
Chelsea were enjoying plenty of possession as Ake provided the fulcrum in the middle of the field, but with £50million striker Torres becalmed in a sea of indecision – he scuffed a 21st-minute shot tamely at Steele – they struggled to create clear-cut chances.
Mowbray had admitted in advance his side simply could not afford to go toe-to-toe with Chelsea, but having safely negotiated a difficult opening period, they started to make an impression themselves.
With Rhys Williams probing from central midfield and Muzzy Carayol and Faris Haroun providing the width, the Blues found themselves having to take a step backwards and might have conceded the opening goal with 26 minutes gone.
Striker Scott McDonald met Bailey's driven cross with a powerful header, but saw the ball fly wide of the far post with Cech looking on anxiously.
Carayol dragged an ambitious 36th-minute effort well wide, but he forced Cech into a less than convincing save with five minutes of the half remaining when his shot reared up off the turf and hit the keeper in the chest before being bundled to safety.
There were boos from the travelling fans at half-time, but the same 11 men emerged after the break as Benitez gave them further time to make their mark.
It took them only six minutes to do just that as they finally edged their way in front.
Oscar's determined run to the by-line and floated cross caused problems for the home defence and when Benayoun fed the loose ball out to Ramires, he curled the ball into the top corner with the help of a slight deflection off the unwitting Torres.
The Spaniard appeared to claim the goal as his team-mates celebrated, but there would have been no question over the shot he unleashed after beating the offside trap had Steele not got his fingertips to it.
Boro needed to re-group as they set about the task of trying to drag themselves back into the game, but with the visitors having settled into a rhythm, they were seeing too little of the ball to do a great deal about it.
Substitute Eden Hazard might have extended his side's lead with 18 minutes remaining with a deft shot which just evaded the top corner, but it was he who accepted Oscar's pass seconds later to provide Moses with a tap-in.
Cech had to be on his toes to keep out an 82nd-minute free-kick from Merouane Zemmama, and fellow substitutes Seb Hines and Ishmael Miller both went close in a late flurry, but Chelsea made it to the final whistle with their clean sheet intact.

In my Systems Librarian column for the February 2009 issue of Computers in Libraries I address the issue of making library automation systems more open. I frequently hear libraries express concern that their software provides too many constraints on their data. We often need to express library services in ways not delivered within the functionality of the traditional ILS. Connecting to new discovery interfaces, courseware systems, institutional financial systems, mobile applications represent just the most common needs libraries have to deliver their content and services beyond the library's own internal infrastructure. Libraries demand that they have the flexibility to use their data in any way that they please rather than be restricted by the functionality delivered directly by the ILS. In this column I look at several of the alternatives emerging to give libraries more control of their data and not be held captive by proprietary software. These alternatives go beyond the basic library standards to include application programming interfaces and open source software.
One of the major themes that I've observed in the recent era of the library involves the demand for more openness in all aspects of the technology infrastructure. Libraries often articulate frustration at automation systems that fail to offer adequate access to the data and functionality of their automation systems. Libraries increasingly resist rigidly closed automation products that do not provide flexible access to the data and provide ways to connect to other products. Today's library automation environment favors systems that can deliver, in one way or another, products that break away from closed, proprietary systems to allow libraries more liberal access to their data. Open source software has caught on in a big way within the library automation arena, but we'll see that this is not the only approach possible as libraries seek options to gain more access and control over their data and other aspects of their technology environment.
The need to protect a library's investment in its data provides one of the key drivers for increased openness. The data that describes the collections and reflects the operations of the library represents one of a library's most important assets. The value of the cumulative investment of library personnel to create a database that accurately reflects its collection probably outweighs the value of the software used to produce and maintain that data. Likewise, data endures longer than any given software product. In the course of a library's automation history, it will likely migrate through multiple automation systems, yet the data created should pass intact from one to the next.
An interest in interoperability with other software products and information systems also fuels demand for openness. Libraries increasingly expect to do more with their data than simply use it within a single automation product. A typical library technology environment includes multiple interrelated systems, many of which need to access data and functionality from others. In order for multiple systems to communicate with each other and work together efficiently, library automation products need to embody a high level of interoperability. continue reading...

Millions of people paint each day. From water colors in a kindergarten classroom to oil paints on the floor of a SoHo studio apartment. Artists are everywhere. Most of them are searching for something deeper, something inside of them. Others use art as a tool to release tension or stress. Some wanting to find out if they have what it takes to be the next master, or simply to see if they have any talents at all. I believe we all have more talents and creative abilities then we could ever use. But it is so hidden within us it takes hours and days if not years to express and find it. Before most do they give up and move on to something easier or simply more fun. For me ART is a way of expressing myself as often as I can. And I kind of took my art career into my own hands. I have spent years of trial and error to find out what creativity means. But not only have I done the work on my own, I have had extensive training too. Besides my mom and dad, I am particularly grateful to Mrs. Barbara Kajdi, my forth grade art teacher, for entering me into the 1st ever KANAGAWA BIENNIAL CHILDREN'S ART EXHIBITION.

The Kanagawa Biennial Children's Art Exhibit has been held every two years since 1980. Held in Kanagawa Prefecture to the south of Tokyo, this event exhibits children's art from all over the world, and is intended to use the power of painting to foster the dreams and creativity of today's young children who will go on to become the leaders of tomorrow. The exhibition is also intended to further understanding of the world's diverse cultures and differences in global lifestyles. Over 24,000 entries and 85 different countries. For me it was life changing.

Sully Erna, best known as vocalist and songwriter for the multi-platinum rock band, GODSMACK, will release a limited-edition box set of his 2010 deeply personal solo debut, "Avalon".
The treasure chest that is the "Avalon" limited-edition box set contains 5 DVDs — the double disc, "Avalon Live", shot December 16, 2011 in Boston at The Wilbur Theatre in 2D, on Standard and Blu-ray; "The Making Of Avalon Live", a 40-minute documentary of behind-the-scenes footage from the concert in December; "The Journey To Avalon" documentary — an hour-long version of the acclaimed doc seen on Palladia, and a bloopers-and-outtakes DVD of Sully in the studio along with videos from "Avalon". The box also contains 2 CDs — "Avalon", the studio album, and "Avalon Live", the live show from Boston. Other items include an autographed limited edition coffee table book, an updated version of Sully's personal memoir, "The Paths We Choose", a limited-edition poster from the Wilbur show and a limited edition t-shirt, a Sully Erna hat and necklace, commemorative backstage pass from the 2010 tour, a guitar pick, and custom hand-made incense chosen by Sully.
Directed and produced by longtime GODSMACK/Sully director Daniel E. Catullo III (GODSMACK's "Changes" DVD, RUSH's "Rush In Rio" DVD, NICKELBACK), the show was produced as both a 2D and 3D special (release date for the the 3D version to be announced). It is priced at $249, but the first 1,000 people to pre-order will get it for $199. The box set is an amazing array of products and one-of-a-kind items that are a must-have for any Sully fan. Five "golden tickets" will be hidden in the boxes that offer grand prize luxury trips with Erna himself to Napa, Boston, New York, Las Vegas, and Avalon/Catalina Island. Many more amazing prizes such as guitars and handwritten lyrics can also be won with no purchase required. Register now at www.sullyernaavalon.com. Only 5,000 box sets will be made, each individually numbered.
A single-disc version in standard and Blu-ray of the concert will be released December 18 and is available for pre-order at www.sullyernaavalon.com.
The seeds for "Avalon" were planted back when Erna was in pre-GODSMACK outfit STRIP MIND, discovering Australian world fusion band DEAD CAN DANCE's 1993 album "Into The Labyrinth". Their "eclectic, mystical, hand drumming" approach filtered into GODSMACK hits like "Voodoo" and "Serenity". From there, an organic process of assembling the right musicians began. Erna recruited DEAD CAN DANCE percussionist Niall Gregory and long time friend and blues vocalist Lisa Guyer, each of whom introduced the guitarists, keyboardists and cellists that would fill out "Avalon"'s diverse sound.
Track listing for "Avalon Live" CD and DVD:
01. Avalon
02. Sinner's Prayer
03. Broken Road
04. The Departed
05. My Light

The theme of each year's festival is not an end in itself, a limitation in the freedom of constructing a programme. It is more a key thread or guiding principle that lends each edition it's particular color. And the key to "La Folia" is that it remain a place of encounter open for all of the facets of early music on the long Whitsunday weekend every year where each concert provides "an earful".
For a number of years the festival toured throughout Europe with editions dedicated to the great musical nations – which could have continued further to countries such as Flanders, Bohemia, Austria or even… Switzerland! Last year, however, we commenced a new series dedicated to the great musical courts: locations where enlightened princes maintained orchestras and composers over a number of generations, attracting to them during their golden ages the finest of European music. After the first venture to the court in Mantua in Northern Italy we cross the barrier of the Alps to journey to Austria, the court to the Habsburg empire which accommodated the brilliant predecessors to Haydn, Mozart and Schubert. Some of the most original of these musicians – if not the most "crazed"! – from the Baroque period include Heinrich Ignaz Franz von Biber, Georg Muffat, Johann Heinrich Schmelzer… As well as musicians from across the Alps who were drawn by the wealth of the courts and… sun! (Read more)
We invite you to join us on this Austrian journey, like every year at "La Folia" in the company of our most faithful friends. This 13th edition is perhaps the best embodiment of this spirit and an opportunity to rekindle it or experience it for the first time: six of the eight ensembles performing at this year's event were also in Rougemont in 2012! One of our favorites from last year, the ensemble of vocalists from the Lausanne Conservatory, is performing in a "real" concert this year (after their admirable concert for more than 200 school children), and a star from the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis who was invited last year by Ruedi Lutz: violinist Eva Saladin, who returns this year with a special, personal programme together with her colleague Jenny Högström.
After the "bolt of lightning" that struck in 2001, no edition of "La Folia" has been possible without the brilliant, amiable and whacky presence of harpsichordist Ruedi Lutz, remarkable improvisationalist and an "entertainer" without compare. Like last year, he appears in the company of two of his students from the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis; they will be performing on three "four seasons" harpsichords built by Jean-Michel Chabloz, the president of "La Folia". Finally, last but not least, budding young musicians will be in the spotlight on Friday with a colorful programme offered by the Ministrings from the Lausanne Conservatory (who were a smash in 2009).
We would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our faithful patrons, sponsors, partners, friends, benefactors and you, our faithful audiences, because without you "La Folia" simply would not exist!

The road to exascale computing is a long one, but pioneers like those at the Georgia Institute of Technology, continue to drive technology innovation. From algorithms to architectures and applications, Georgia Tech's researchers are collaborating with top companies, national labs and defense organizations to solve the complex challenges of tomorrow's supercomputing systems. Ongoing projects and new research initiatives spanning several Georgia Tech disciplines directly addressing core HPC issues such as sustainability, reliability and massive data computation will be on display November 13-19, 2010 at SC10 in New Orleans, Lousiana.
Led by Jeffrey Vetter, joint professor of computational science and engineering at Georgia Tech and Oak Ridge National Laboratory, "Keeneland" is an NSF-funded project to deploy a high-performance heterogeneous computing system consisting of HP servers integrated with NVIDIA Tesla GPUs. Entering its second-year, the project will deploy its initial delivery system — the first of two experimental systems — this month. During the initial performance runs, the Keeneland system was clocked at running 64 teraflops per second, placing it well within the top 100 systems in the world on the most recent TOP500 list of supercomputers. Given the system's excellent energy efficiency of approximately 650 megaflops per second per watt on the TOP500 Linpack, the team is hoping to secure a strong position on the Green500 list of the most energy efficient supercomputers in the world.
Keeneland is supported by a $12 million grant from NSF's Track 2D program, a five-year activity designed to fund the deployment and operation of two innovative computing systems, with an overarching goal of preparing the open computational science community for emerging architectures that have high performance and are energy efficient
"Heterogeneous computing will play an important role in the future of high performance computing due to the new challenges of extreme parallelism and energy efficiency," said Vetter. "The Keeneland partnership is providing hardware and software resources, training, and expertise to the computational science community at a critical time in this transition to new computing architectures."

After I favorably reviewed the Creative WP-350 Bluetooth headphones ($79.99), the folks over at MEElectronics contacted me to tell me that they also had a pair of $79.99 stereo Blueooth headphones, the Air-Fi AF32, claiming better performance than the Creatives.
Like Creative, MEElectronics is known for being a value brand that delivers good bang for the buck, so I expected the AF32s to be good -- and they are. They feature a comfortable on-ear design with padded red earpieces and a glossy black finish on the band. They seem pretty well built and the band is nicely padded at the top. One small gripe I had is that while the headphones fold up, they don't fold completely flat so it doesn't sufficiently shrink their footprint when you do break them down. Regardless, a simple canvas carrying case is included for storage.
Aside from that criticism, they do get high marks for comfort level, even more so than the Creative WP-350s. I had no problem wearing them on a 30-minute commute every day to and from work. They feature a similar fit to the Sennheiser HD 238i headphones (a non-Bluetooth model), but they will make your ears a little steamy on warmer days.
I did get a pretty tight seal on my ears, and these headphones do a decent but not great job blocking the outside world. In terms of controls, you get three slim buttons on the right earcup that are all the same size. Once you memorize what each is for (bottom for volume, middle skipping tracks, and top for power and answering/ending calls), you can do everything by touch without taking the headphones off.
It's worth mentioning that these can actually be used as corded headphones, which is a nice bonus because you really get a sense of the difference between listening to music over Bluetooth and over a wired connection. One small irritation: you charge the headphones via that headphone port with an included USB cable to 3.5mm adapter. I prefer it to recharge with a standard Micro-USB connection, because if you lose the AF32's charger, you'll likely need to buy another cable unless you happen to have another one lying around (most people have a Micro-USB cable to charge other electronics).
Like other Bluetooth headphones I've encountered, pairing your smartphone, tablet, or other Bluetooth-enabled device with these guys is easy enough, though you'll run into an occasional snag from time to time. Also, expect to have some drop-outs now and again; that's par for the course for Bluetooth, which has an estimated range of 30 feet.
The AF32s performed well for Bluetooth headphones in this price range. In going wireless with Bluetooth, you have to give up some sound quality because it compresses your music over the wireless signal and has a tendency to flatten sonic detail. You'll get some of that with these headphones, but like the Creative WP-35s, the sound quality holds up pretty well against that of comparably priced wired headphones.

Here are some different source management tools commonly used with Linux:
- David Wheeler has an excellent breakdown of various SCM tools at: http://www.dwheeler.com/essays/scm.html
- IBM has an good overview of available tools at: http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-vercon/
- There is a comparison of several different tools at: http://better-scm.berlios.de/comparison/comparison.html
Patch Management Tools
- diff - to create patches
- use 'man diff' on your local system for information
- patch - to apply patches
- use 'man patch' on your local system for information
- Quilt is good for managing a group of patches relative to a single source base.
- diffstat reads a patch file (or standard input) and displays a histogram of the insertions, deletions, and modifications per-file. It is useful for reviewing large, complex patch files. It reads from one or more input files or from standard input. If an input filename ends with .bz2, .Z or .gz, diffstat will read the uncompressed data via a pipe from the corresponding program.
- diffstat is included in most Linux distributions
- diffstat home page
- diffstat man page
- Tim's patch management tools - diffinfo and friends - a more verbose diffstat, with splitting, joining and comparing of patches
- See also Diff And Patch Tricks
Version Control Systems
GIT is the source code management tool used by many kernel developers.
- GIT project home page: http://git.or.cz/
- GIT for SVN users: http://git.or.cz/course/svn.html
- Pratical Guide to Using Git, a tutorial given by the excellent kernel developer James Bottomley at the Ottawa Linux Symposium 2008
GIT is distributed: every developer have a copy of the whole project and its history, this doubles as backup as well as makes operations super fast since you don't need to go through network.
GIT is about series of patches that work in a tree form, each tree leaf is a branch. Branches are easy and fast, you can create and delete as much as you wish and you can optionally push them upstream, so it's advised that development happens in your own tree and that you rebase your work on top of upstream 'master', that way you get a consistent sequence of patches to implement features. With GIT you can go back in history and edit commits, delete them, reorder or even merge lots of commits into a single commit for publishing, usually required for projects that employ code review.

Happy Christmas Eve Day! We did get a few inches of snow last night, and so long as it stays below freezing, we'll have a white Christmas after all. I was greeted this morning with the following:
The layer of ice on the road was covered with packed snow, so getting to the bus this morning was a breeze.
A big farm tractor with a 10-foot-wide blade on the front was clearing the parking lot at The Maul, revealing the layer of ice beneath. Fortunately, The Goat is surefooted and stable. I'm running the tires at about 30 and 35 PSI front and rear respectively. This helps them float on snow as well as allowing the full width of the tread get some purchase on ice. It sacrifices efficiency in most situations, but I've found it's actually easier to ride over deep snow with low pressure tires than otherwise. The traction benefits are a good trade-off, too.
I took this HDR while waiting for the bus.

Greetings from Wichita, I found this site though a random google "bicycle commuter" and was pleasantly suprised to find your site.
For the weather gear I've been using mostly thrift store bought things that are
certain to work. Lots of wool and loose fitting leather jackets. The coup de grace
is tying a long sleaved wool shirt around my face to prewarm intake. All this works for me if I take a fall on ice.

…along with 11 other individuals….telling a positive story about persistence!
A couple of thoughts before I send you to the article and three pictures…
A quote from the article, on newsstands this week:
"Each story is unique, yet there are common themes: feelings of uselessness, the disturbing ease with which one's professional identity slips away, the humiliation of asking family or friends for a loan, and, finally, the rewards of adaptability and persistence."
Shareology did not experience the first three above; she is a huge believer in persistence!!
When you click on the pictures, mine is in the bottom row, in the middle. By clicking on me on the lawn of the Science Museum (superimposed with a picture of my cube and chair at Infor) you will come to a 2nd and third photo. In the actual article on newsstands is a 150 word summary. Each photo also has a caption.
The great thing is that ProductCamp MN and SMBMSP got super mentions. (Although if I had been given the captions to proof, I would have made the reference to SMBMSP a tad more precise.)
I spent 4 hours with the photographer, Josh Poehlein, and time on the phone with the reporter, Katherine Reynolds Lewis. I have seen so many success stories in the last three years, and they do go under-reported. Hats off to Businessweek for highlighting how networking can lead to new adventures!!
Update June 6, 2012:
- Found the issue on the stands last night.
- Disappointed at first that my picture wasn't on the cover.
- Flipped through to discover I'm a centerfold.
Yep, my photo is spread over 2 pages. Definitely LOL. Yep, that's why I got the MBA: so I could be a centerfold in Businessweek. Loving it!!!!
And now your links:

Forgot to set my alarm. Woke up late.
Groggily checked bus schedule (I have it stored on my phone). Saw that the second bus would be at The Maul in 22 minutes. It takes me 10 minutes to ride there.
Got my clothes and lunch together, opting for only one pannier this morning. Threw everything on the bike and rushed out the door.
Arrived at The Maul, not quite in record time, before the time I thought I needed to be there.
The time I was expecting the bus to arrive comes and goes. I check the schedule again, and see that I was looking at the wrong location. So I stand in 31°F weather for 15 minutes longer than I need to, looking and feeling like an idiot. I could have made some breakfast for my wife and I in that 15 minutes!
Got to the office, only to find out that my access card was in the other pannier, at home.
Hey, at least I still made it to work at a reasonable time.
Here's something to kick off your (hopefully) short work week:

All he did was coast down a snowy hill that's been groomed to perfection. I think most people probably could do it. But I don't think many people actually would do it.
There are people who say they can do things, then people who actually do things. I fall squarely into the "I know I can, but I would not do it" category myself. Being on a bike at that speed doesn't scare me a bit. The carnage from one faux pas at that speed does.

Welcome to the website of Tulane's Anthropology Department! The history of anthropology at Tulane goes back to 1924, when the Department of Middle American Research (now the Middle American Research Institute) was founded. The first anthropology courses were offered in 1938-1939. By 1947, anthropologists were teaching courses in the Department of Sociology and Anthropology. A separate Department of Anthropology was established in 1967. The Department has since grown to include 20 faculty, 100 to 150 undergraduate anthropology majors, and approximately 60 graduate students.
The Department has four-field programs at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. The faculty includes eight cultural anthropologists, five archaeologists, three biological anthropologists, and three linguists. The teaching and research interests of the faculty have global reach: North America (the Gulf South and the southeastern United States), Mesoamerica and Central America (Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, Honduras, El Salvador, and Costa Rica), the Caribbeans (Cuba), South America (Bolivia, Brazil, Ecuador, and Peru), Africa (Namibia, Niger, Nigeria, and South Africa), Europe (France and Portugal), and Asia (China and Vietnam).
The mission of the Department of Anthropology is to provide undergraduate and graduate instruction in anthropology, and to produce innovative research and scholarship. Key to our research and teaching mission is maintaining integration and balance among anthropology's four fields: biological, cultural, and linguistic anthropology, and archaeology. Through research and publication, and the teaching and mentoring of undergraduate and graduate students, we strive to advance and disseminate knowledge of human and nonhuman primate origins and behavior, major developments in human prehistory, mechanisms of cultural change, human adaptation to diverse environments, and an understanding and appreciation of modern cultural, biological, and linguistic diversity.

Most modern CAT tools display the text in segment-oriented form rather than with its ultimate layout and formatting. Although this has many advantages, it can be very useful for the translator to be able to see the ultimate layout and formatting whilst translating. For this reason, many CAT tools provide a preview function that shows the layout and formatting without the translator having to create the final document and open it in a separate application (usually a word processor). OmegaT does not have an integral preview function, but it is possible to provide much the same functionality using additional software. This HowTo describes the general principles for setting up a preview function.
Ideally, a viewer should do two things:
If you are translating .html files, a convenient solution is to use a browser with an automatic refresh function to provide a ready-made preview function. Examples of browsers with an automatic refresh function:
You may prefer not to use your usual browser for the preview function so as to keep it free for Internet browsing rather than having constantly to switch tabs, so you can regard installing an additional browser for the preview function as an advantage.
After selecting and installing a suitable browser (and/or the required add-on), open your translated file in the /target folder of your project:
Now enable automatic refreshing. In both Firefox and Opera, this can be done by right-clicking in the translated .html file you have opened, then Reload every > select a desired interval (e.g. 5 seconds).
You now have a preview function. To update the display, you must still save and create your target document in OmegaT with Ctrl+s, Ctrl+d. The change will then become visible after a delay of at most the interval you selected (plus the time taken by OmegaT to save and produce the target files). Your browser won't automatically scroll as you work through the text; you have to do that yourself. But it will at least stay at the same point in the text when the view is updated.
Opening your translated target file in a browser is easy when your source file is in .html format, but translations more often involve word-processing files, which in OmegaT are usually handled in .docx or .odt format. You can still use the browser solution described above to preview the translations of these files, but you will then also need a) a converter to convert the file to .html format, and b) a utility to launch the converter automatically so that you don't have to convert the files manually.
Two programs that can be used as converters are described here: Abiword and LibreOffice.
Abiword and LibreOffice are a word processor and an office suite respectively. Both are free, available for a number of different platforms, and can convert .docx and .odt files to .html format.
Abiword is a relatively small download and is very fast in use. It has a command-line function for converting .docx and .odt files to .html format. It is very easy for Linux users and fairly easy for Windows users to install. Download Abiword here.
LibreOffice is a fully featured office suite similar to Microsoft Office. It can also be used to convert .docx and .odt files to .html format, but to do so from the command line, it also requires Unoconv, a plug-in. Download LibreOffice here; download the Unoconv plug-in here.
Once you have installed either Abiword or the LibreOffice+Unoconv combination, you can convert the target files produced by OmegaT to html format in order for them to be read by the browser. Remember that you will first have to save in OmegaT and produce the translated documents, then launch the conversion utility, then wait for the display to be updated in the browser.
There are numerous ways of achiving this, but one practical solution is to use a script which "listens" for changes in the translated file(s) produced by OmegaT and then, when a change is detected, automatically launches the utility which converts the file(s) to html format in order for them to be read by the browser. A schematic diagram is shown below:
An example script that achieves this function is described in the Priorview Howto.

Class B wrote:Velva and DLB are teams that I could see as spoilers in the tournaments. They both seem similar in terms of needing this season to build up some very capable underclasses. They've both have had similar types of regular seasons - though DLB had a much tougher schedule, IMO. Velva has struggled to find a consistent 2nd scorer behind Hayden Lee. Teams have been able to sit back in a zone all season long against them and smother Lee while taking their chances with the guards. Some nights those guards will hit their shots, some nights they won't. Florence is probably the fastest kid in the gym most nights - I would like to see him go to the rim more and create opportunities.
I don't think Velva or DLB has played their complete games yet, but they will during the tournaments.

tale of two halves...Rugby sits in 1-3-1 the first half & Bohl and Hedberg are lights out, Minot up 20 at half...
Rugby goes man second half and Minot's shooting % comes back to earth. Bohl and Hedberg have to work a bit more to get their points
If the regional goes as planned, this could be an interesting game...Rugby would have a chance if they play aggressive on both ends and can get into Ryan's bench...I think Minot would struggle against a true post player, something not seen in R6 ...Minot sure can shoot anyone out of a zone.

Nedrose will be the powerhouse of this region for years to come, why pay to play at Ryan or ORCS when Nedrose has open enrollment and a beautiful school with no tuition. Say goodbye to the minot private school dominance.

C.C. Blake has lived across the United States, starting in the suburbs of Detroit, to Massachusetts' second largest city (Worcester) to the country's seventh largest city (San Antonio, Texas, that is). He's has a variety of jobs, working as a substitute teacher, the graveyard shift dishwasher at a haunted Denny's, lab research monkey and teaching assistant at a second tier college. Currently, he works as an automation consultant for a chemical company on the Northeast side of SAtown (which isn't as Hellish as it sounds).
Blake's most popular character, irrepressible adventurer Chuck Cave, has appeared in over two dozen stories, including the 2005 Man's Story 2 Story of the Year Award winner "Chuck Cave and the Vanishing Vixen." The character's supernatural thriller stories (which began with the seminal "Cave and the Vamp") are all being released as a part of Vampires2.com's initial foray into e-books. These new versions are presented in expanded and revised versions, all are the author's preferred texts. Be sure to collect them all!
In addition to his pulp stories for the 2-Empire (Man's Story 2, Vampires 2, Androids 2 and Paranormal Romance 2), Blake's fiction has appeared in several anthologies, including Unparalleled Journeys II (from Journey Books Publishing) and Fearology: Terrifying Tales of Phobias (from Library of Horror Press).
