Meanwhile, things were also happening outside the realm of video games. For example, Ron Artest showed Tiger some love. Don't miss the comments.
They're getting ready for this year's NHL Winter Classic. Check out this time-lapse video of the rink being built in Boston's Fenway Park.
Domino's fans stock up or rejoice because on December 27 Domino's changes their pizza recipe.
Look, I knew the new Girl's Next Door weren't getting it done nearly as well but the bad news got a lot worse as Playboy faces collapse after the potential buyer that would have saved them has said no thanks.
Kids definitely do the darndest things. In Chattanooga that proved true when a four year-old boy stole Christmas presents from neighbors and was found by police at 1:45am on the streets drinking a beer and wearing a girl's dress.

SRI International receives funding from DARPA for its CALO AI program
Artificial intelligence. We've been reading and watching science fiction with walking, talking robots for nearly a century. Researchers have been tinkering with it for decades. Have we come any closer to android production factories? Not quite. But the CALO project, under the direction of SRI International, is looking at making headway in basic intelligence for widely used computer software.
CALO, or Cognitive Assistant that Learns and Organizes, is a very ambitious collaboration between more than twenty different organizations. "The goal of the project is to create cognitive software systems, that is, systems that can reason, learn from experience, be told what to do, explain what they are doing, reflect on their experience, and respond robustly to surprise," states SRI's CALO information page.
CALO brings together many experts from different fields of artificial intelligence, like machine learning, natural language processing, and Semantic Web technologies. Groups work on a different piece of CALO, which will be part of the whole functionality.
The project is being funded by the Defense Advanced Research ProjectsAgency (DARPA) under its Perceptive Assistant that Learns (PAL) program. The PAL program is expected to spawn innovative ideas that bring new science, fundamental approaches to current problems, and algorithms and tools and yield technology of significant value to the military. SRI was awarded the first two phases of a five-year contract to develop a personalized cognitive assistant.
While it's not the artificial intelligence made popular by science-fiction writers like Dick and Asimov, CALO looks to be genuinely helpful to its targeted end-users, government agencies and possibly business.
The PAL project is aimed at militaryuse, but future packages or derivatives of CALO could be very helpful to business professionals that are constantly on the move by helping them schedule meetings and prioritize information.The package can assist users in this way by analyzing patterns in information such as e-mail correspondence.
Information importance can be learned by CALO so that the data is pushed to the top of the list judged by which projects and people it comes from.The system's speech recognition abilities can also put data prioritization to use in meetings. The software can prioritize the data it gathers in regards to the user's projects and create lists and make appointments with involved parties.
One of the strengths of the system is that it can learn the needs of individuals through their habits and interactions, much like a personal assistant of the human kind. Rather than offering canned advice and only acting on human intervention, the software can make assumptions about a user's needs and plan accordingly. It will even be able to reschedule meetings if participants become unable to attend.
Whether or not it would inform other attendees was not specified, but imagine if the system was interconnected to other learning systems on a network, that it could very well inform those assistants, who could in-turn inform their users of the change.
In an intranet situation, such as for a large business or the given military agency application, the system would be incredibly beneficial in that rather than depending on humans, who sometimes aren't at their desks or transpose numbers in a date or time, the software agents could work together seamlessly and accurately. Since the system is a learning system, mistakes are not probably out of the question, but replacing human error and time delay may outweigh the occasional mis-prioritized e-mail -- which the system could learn was mis-prioritized, reducing the likelihood of a similar mistake in the future.
One of the most challenging endeavors for the project is creating a consistent data system that CALO can use for decision making. Gathered data will likely be very disjointed and uncertain. To use this data, various members of the project are working on a probability consistency engine. This engine brings together two of the traditional approaches to artificial intelligence: logic and probability. Probability will be good for finding related data in the chaotic data the software gathers, while logic will better handle the meaning of the data.
Adam Cheyer, program director of the artificial-intelligence center at SRI says of the project, "What's different and has never been done before in this way is the truly integrated approach of bringing all of these technologies and all of these capabilities into a single system. It takes a system of this size to give you something that can understand and organize so much information.
"While the CALO project will probably not be able to respond to a user's mood, play them in a game of poker, or drive a car, the ambitious undertaking promises evolution in the artificial intelligence field by combining so many different types of systems, methods and applications. Some of the key features for a true AI are in its ability to learn from many different sources of data, adapt in adverse situations and interact with humans on a level that we are comfortable with. While not housed in an attractive mechanical body, CALO could show us the first steps in unified systems capable of such performance.

DARPA funds Artificial Intelligence project
This is something for us computer geeks. Everyone that does programming probably has dreamed of coming up with artificial intelligence, like we've read about in books and have seen in films. I've had a few ideas for it myself. What SRI is doing isn't exactly like the robots from the movies, but it is still pretty cool nonetheless.

This is something that came up indirectly in a previous discussion at some point in the last month or so in Hot Topics-- I think what this story illustrates is that there is still very much a perception of social class in America that pertains to what someone does, and in particular service people, particularly food service people for some reason, are treated as beneath almost everyone else. Anyone who's worked in food service will pretty much know what I mean, people really talk to you sometimes as if you're from a separate subspecies just because of the job you're doing. If anyone has read any of the books that the series "True Blood" is based off, those books really captured a lot of the bias and bigotry that people have towards food service workers, as the main character is telepathic and works as a waitress, and can always hear what people are thinking about her.
And apparently even pastors aren't immune. Despite similarly living "in a field of service", the connotation of where they rank in the social order is just nowhere near someone like a waiter or waitress.

When going skiing, it is important for your safety and enjoyment to make sure that you always have the right equipment, which is why selecting the proper ski pole is essential. In order to make sure you buy the pole that is right for you, there are four factors that you must consider: material, length, basket size, and grip.
There are four main materials that ski poles are made from, which are composite, fiberglass, aluminum, and graphite. Each material has its own pros and cons. Graphite is both lightweight and highly durable, but it is generally more expensive. Aluminum is a very budget friendly choice, but is more prone to warping or snapping during a crash. What material you get should probably be driven by your budget and how frequently you ski. If you ski rarely, the more economical pole should be sufficient, however if you go often during the season, it might be the time to invest in something stronger.
The deciding factor in buying ski poles should be the length. A pole that is either too long or too short could be dangerous, as it would not allow you to maintain the proper posture while skiing. To choose the right length, turn the pole upside down while standing up with your arms stretched out in front of you, grab the point of the pole, and if the grips are touching the floor that pole is the right size. Telescoping poles might be a good choice for children who are still growing, or if you plan on sharing your equipment.
Basket Size
The basket is a disc located towards the bottom of the ski pole. It is the function of the basket to prevent the end of the pole from sinking into the snow. It is important to choose the proper basket type for the skiing conditions you will be on. Packed terrain should utilize a smaller basket, while soft and loose powder needs a larger basket to perform the same function.
Finally, the last consideration for selecting a ski pole is the grip. The advice that any expert will tell you is that when testing out grips, be sure to do so with your ski glove on. There is a big difference in the feel of the grip between someone wearing their gloves and someone who is not. Additionally, you have the choice of the traditional nylon strap, or a more technological strap which will automatically disengage if you crash.
Ski poles are an important piece of ski equipment. Using this guide will help you make the choice that is right for you, and always remember to select a pole that is strong and sturdy, as well as being a good fit.

CTWM is a highly-configurable window manager based on the classic TWM window manager. It supports xpms, multiple workspaces, advanced icon managment, animated icons and backgrounds, 3D titles and borders, etc. It offers rudimentary Gnome support and is backwards-compatible with TWM.
dvtm brings the concept of tiling window management, popularized by X11-window managers like dwm, to the console. As a console window manager, it tries to make it easy to work with multiple console based programs like vim, mutt, cmus, or irssi. dvtm is intended to be used where X11 isn't available or over SSH. In conjunction with dtach, it can be seen as a lightweight alternative to GNU screen.
FVWM-Crystal aims to create an easy to use, pretty, but also powerful desktop environment for Linux or other Unix-like operating systems. It uses the following programs: FVWM as a window manager and "main core"; different ways to provide icons on the desktop including support for many file managers and custom commands; xterm, aterm, mrxvt, or urxvt as terminal emulators; MPD or XMMS2 as music players (there's built-in support for controlling these programs), and several other tools for different functions, like setting a wallpaper or taking screenshots.
spectrwm is a minimalistic tiling window manager that tries to stay out of the way so that valuable screen real estate can be used for much more important stuff. It has sane defaults and does not require one to learn a language to do any configuration. It was written by hackers for hackers and it strives to be small, compact, and fast.
FVWM-min is a minimal standard configuration for FVWM which provides a sane and functional set of window manager defaults. It configures FVWM to a very clean and functional state, then gets out of your way so you can do your work. The basic idea is that after installation, it should be usable enough for you to start productive work in it immediately. Styles are included for customizing the look, and are applied with a small shell script.
A high performance, scalable database modeled after Bigtable.
A .NET component to create PDF documents without using Adobe Acrobat.

Bring on the sunshine, the azaleas and the dogwoods. April cracked open the door for a flood of spring fever.
On my Earth Day/birthday last week, the outdoors beckoned, but duty and the keyboard called. So I will take the occasion to share some observations.
Now solidly in the venerable little-old-lady-in-tennis-shoes category, I get senior discounts and the right to be outspoken. Sometimes I am called honey and I tolerate it; But "young lady"? Even old people recognize insincerity.
Birthdays bring some existential examination. Are we merely ticking off the days on the calendar? Thoughtful effort keeps life full of spark and meaning.
Let us take a look at what is right in life and where things can be improved. Here are a few things that put a smile on my face:
The last public hearing on the Highland Lake Park in Flat Rock was by far the most upbeat public meeting I ever attended. There were many comments, even from children. Everyone, for and against, was thoughtful and courteous.
The cheerful, barn-red color is back on the Flat Rock Playhouse, and Scott Treadway and Charlie Flynn McIver doled out some good belly laughs for the audience. I must be honest and say I will continue to miss some folks. Everyone wants this community treasure to thrive.
I paid my taxes. What's that? One might get shot for putting this on the good list. As a retired friend said, "I think of myself as a compassionate moderate. Around here, some folks find that extreme."
Like anyone else, it makes me angry to see my tax dollars wasted. Let us keep the fiscal watchdogs but adopt a reasonable attitude about taxes. No one loves to pay them. But think about safe roads, water and sewer, education for the next generation, and law enforcement to keep us safe. I will take the taxes and a stable place to live any day. It is an inescapable part of civic duty. Plus, my accountant, Pam, makes the whole experience pleasant.
It is a pleasure to give accolades to outgoing Environmental & Conservation Organization (ECO) Director David Weintraub for all the good he has done for our community. Two driving forces of our local economy are outdoor recreation and our scenic beauty. David has been there to defend those things, going into the lion's den to constructively converse with people. We owe him our thanks.
A warm welcome goes to Rachel Hodge as incoming ECO director. Rachel proved herself as ECO's water quality administrator last year and is ready to step up to the plate and lead the organization. Along with Southern grace and youthful energy, she is intelligent and capable.
Sometimes people with an interest in the environment are labeled. In fact, these thoughtful people do a great service, protecting things that are vital to our collective well-being. They are out there advocating not only for our economy but our health. We all desire and need clean air and water for our survival.
I remain hopeful that we do not throw out the baby with the bath water with this county regulation review committee. It took a lot of work to put some of these regulations in place. Let's be careful what we do here and not take a step backward. Concerned folks are watching.
In addition to being cheerful, one can also be cranky on one's birthday. So here is my "frown-on-my-face" list:
This next statement applies to both parties. It is not in the best interests of citizens of our state or our country when one party controls everything. Currently, there are no checks and balances in our state government.
There are way too many things happening that do not seem wise: opting out of Medicaid for starters, stripping committee appointments, not posting public meetings in our newspapers, state takeover of the Charlotte airport. Now here comes a personal infringement proposal for separations for two years instead of one. Obviously this person has never known someone in a physically abusive relationship, or one so dysfunctional that divorce is a blessing. And if one-third of automobile accidents are speed related, why is the legislature proposing raising the speed limit?
A ballot box backfire is festering. I keep hearing that these folks representing us are known for moderation and reasonableness. The recent school lunch funding was a plus. Please, let's see more of those good traits we keep hearing they have.
I had high hopes for some compromise on the national gun bill that was narrowly defeated. I realize that defending self and family, as well as hunting, are very important to many people. I fail to see how the particulars in this bill prevented anyone from doing those things. We still have major work to do on this. The Boston bombing underscores the desperate need for more mental health services. And public polls show people want some reforms.
These are some of my concerns in a nutshell. If I were handing out advice to the upcoming generation on my birthday, I would say this: The most content people I know enjoy giving back. For starters, I would suggest three good places to volunteer: Historic Johnson Farm, ECO and Bullington Gardens.
Give a little of yourself and do something for someone else. It makes the accumulation of birthdays more meaningful, and I daresay it prolongs one's life expectancy.

Mainstay Executive Director Tanya Blackford walked into an unfinished room Tuesday. When construction is complete, the room will be filled with food, staff and customers.
Mainstay Executive Director Tanya Blackford walked into an unfinished room Tuesday. When construction is complete, the room will be filled with food, staff and customers.
Mainstay, a domestic violence organization and shelter for women, is opening up a restaurant in Hendersonville.
Dandelion won't be like other restaurants, however. In fact, it won't be like any other project the nonprofit has ever worked on. It's representative of a shift in how Mainstay will operate going forward, Blackford said, a shift toward helping women build self-sufficiency, gain employment skills and get back on their feet.
Several years back, Blackford said, the nonprofit began thinking about being more than a crisis center. Dandelion is a nod to the nonprofit's goal of helping clients step back out into society.
"Their needs were too great and jobs were too few," Blackford said about a lack of opportunities in the area.
To get back on their feet, the women who come through their shelter will need a job. That's where the restaurant comes into play.
The restaurant will open with one employee and six "interns," who will be Mainstay clients. The first group of interns will serve, host and prepare food and are training now through a partnership with Blue Ridge Community College. The restaurant will also branch out into catering.
What will be served at the restaurant? A lot of that will be determined by Robyn Painter — the restaurant's lone employee.
First, they will focus on local foods, Painter said.
"The menu will change with what's available," she added.
In the beginning, simplicity will be key. As the interns train and become more advanced, the restaurant's food base will grow.
The restaurant will be open for breakfast and lunch. Breakfast will include baked goods and grab-and-go items. Soup will be served every day. Lunch will include burritos and wraps, and the restaurant will buy as many local products as possible.
One goal is to not compete against local eateries, Blackford said, but to teach. Once Dandelion is up and running, it's Mainstay's hope that the eatery will pay for itself and provide the environment needed to help clients get employment experience.
"The goal is for it to be self-sufficient," Blackford said. "It's all about employment — getting people back to work."
The restaurant should be open in the next two months, Blackford said, and will be located at 127 5th Ave. West.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and other Democrats shouldn't oppose U.S. Rep. Mark Meadows' NRA-backed bill to place more cops in schools, the Republican congressman said Tuesday, since they supported it during the Clinton years.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and other Democrats shouldn't oppose U.S. Rep. Mark Meadows' NRA-backed bill to place more cops in schools, the Republican congressman said Tuesday, since they supported it during the Clinton years.
"Nancy Pelosi's district was the first one to receive money from this program," Meadows said Tuesday, describing how he sought to give the bill he introduced Feb. 15 bipartisan appeal. "We did that on purpose. She's going to be hard-pressed to oppose it."
The Protect America's Schools Act would resurrect the "Cops in Schools" program started by President Bill Clinton in 1998. The program was cut in 2005 after placing more than 6,500 police officers in schools.
Meadows isn't sure why the program was cut, but his staff did find "there was actually a decrease in gun-related violence in schools" during its seven-year run. And the freshman congressman isn't shying away from the bill's Clintonian connections, either.
"I don't care whose idea it is," Meadows said. "It can be Bill Clinton's. It can be Nancy Pelosi's. We have to find bipartisan solutions... Even if ultimately he gets credit for it, that's fine, as long as it makes our schools safer and protects our kids."
Meadows will join 15 local law enforcement officials today at Hendersonville Elementary School to discuss his bill, including Henderson County Sheriff Charlie McDonald, Transylvania County Sheriff David Mahoney and Avery County Sheriff Kevin Frye.
Frye and Macon County Sheriff Robbie Holland were among the first sheriffs to ask Meadows for help in funding additional school resource officers, the congressman said. Meadows said his staff ran the draft bill by the NRA "as a courtesy," but that local law enforcement was its impetus.
Clinton's "Cops in Schools" program was funded with a $60 million grant from the U.S. Department of Justice's Office of Community Oriented Policing Services. Meadows' bill, which currently has eight co-sponsors, diverts $30 million in "unobligated" funds from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
Originally, Meadows said his staff looked at funding the program with oil and gas royalties from federal lands. But he explained that was difficult because it involves shifting funds between two appropriation committees, whereas NOAA funds share the same committee as the Department of Justice.
"This was a way to fund it and honestly, you're making a choice between doing more in terms of climate change or climate research versus our kids," Meadows said. "It becomes a pretty easy choice for most people to make."
Meadows' office said NOAA alone had $136 million in unobligated funds, citing the president's 2013 budget.
Universal background checks and bans on high-capacity magazines, two solutions being pushed by congressional Democrats, won't solve the problems of gun violence in schools, Meadows said. He said his staff's research found the most common weapon used in school violence was a .22 revolver.
Background checks sound great, Meadows said, but "it's really not going to make our schools any safer unless we get rid of guns completely. And we all know that's not going to happen. That's really why we came up with this, to come up with a practical response."

DynaBlast is a fast Apache HTTPD access_log scanner. It can find hosts that exceed a given number of hits in a given time period, printing them to standard output. It has a "fast mode" that can skip lines that have already been parsed. Multiple dynablast instances are avoided by using a lock file. This make it suitable for crontab usage. It can be run by any user, not just root. It can run in parallel, for example, when analyzing different access_log files. It keeps memory consumption down to about 10 kb, by parsing the access_log file one line at a time.
HomeGed Scan is scanning software that was designed to offer power as well as simplicity of use. Acquired or imported files can be combined into multi-page documents and saved in formats such as PDF, TIFF, JPEG, and PNG. It supports network scanners using TWAIN or SANE protocols and flat-beds and document feeders.
Bluelog is a Bluetooth site survey tool, designed to tell you how many discoverable devices there are in an area as quickly as possible. Bluelog differs from most Bluetooth scanners in that it prioritizes speed of reporting over anything else (i.e. it doesn't spend time trying to pull detailed data from a device) and doesn't require any user intervention to function. As the name implies, its primary function is to log discovered devices to file rather than to be used interactively. Bluelog could run on a system unattended for long periods of time to collect data. In addition to basic scanning, Bluelog also has a unique feature called "Bluelog Live", which puts results in a constantly updating Web page which you can serve with your HTTP daemon of choice.
Ip phone Scanning Made Easy (ISME) scans a VOIP environment, adapts to enterprise VOIP, and exploits the possibilities of being connected directly to an IP Phone VLAN. It seeks to get the phone's configuration file directly from a TFTP server, enable SIP/SIPS (TCP/UDP), communicate with an embedded Web server and Web server banner, identify the editor by MAC address, and identify potential default login/password combinations which should be changed.
MALODOS helps you to scan, store, and easily retrieve all your personal documents. Its storage format is open and documented, so your document archive can remain accessible even without MALODOS. The documents themselves are stored as standard PDF files, while their metadata (such as title, tags, and description) are stored into a separate SQLite database in an open format. With MALODOS, you can also manage existing files in PDF, JPEG, TIFF, and other formats, so you can still use the documents that you've already scanned. You can connect to any external OCR program to give access to a fulltext search feature.

How to guides
How to plan a concrete path, patio or driveway
Concrete is made up of cement, aggregate (particles of stone) and sharp sand. When you mix these ingredients with water, they bind into a solid, hard material. In different proportions, they produce concrete of different strengths for different uses.
It's important to get the proportions right. If there's too much aggregate, you'll struggle to get a satisfactory finish. And too much sand will make the mix weak, so that the finished surface could be damaged by the elements.
Concrete begins to harden after about two hours, and then becomes unworkable. But it doesn't become really strong for several days, and continues to harden as long as there's some moisture in it.
Buying guides
Decking buying guide
Attractive and practical, decking is a great landscaping option for outdoor spaces of any size. It creates additional living space, distinguishing a special spot for socialising or relaxing. Decked areas help make the most of surfaces that are uneven or sloped so that no garden space is wasted, and work well as elevated terraces to offer garden interest at different heights.
Decking is ideal for zoning in large gardens as well as smaller spaces, such as balconies and roof terraces, where it can create the feel of an outdoor oasis in the midst of the city. Decking complements modern styles, as well as more rural or country gardens. And the natural feel of timber evokes the sensation of being waterside or by the beach - perfect for that American boardwalk look. In fact, if you have, or are looking to add, a hot tub or swimming pool to your garden, consider laying a decked border around it - we offer low-slip boards which are ideal for this very purpose.
So, whether you're tackling a small-scale decking project or something more substantial, we're here to help you find the right decking for you and your outdoor space.

A twink with a well developed 'trail' and 'pit hair' is always an added treat
Stanley again, enjoying himself in the sun. Beautiful!
Great collection of twinks to start the new year.
Stanley unloading on his perfect smooth body. Very hot.
Wonderful Max. I'd love to spend a bit of time with him!
Hi Paulo999 and mike1491:
I really enjoy the photos you have been posting. Excellent collection.
Here is a photo I would like to share. He certainly is amazing. Really cool eyes and well developed body. I also give him a for the 'pit hair' too. One of my favorites
I agree with you careandrespect - what a great-looking guy. I'd like to see what else he has to offer!
Some inviting twink holes.
Always a favourite - Leon. I love that natural hairy hole and his gorgeous cock and balls.
I love Elijah.
A few more pics of Leon looking hot.
It is so amazing how all these twinks have such great looking bodies. Well developed cocks that can unload those thicky creamy loads of twink cum. Asses that are ready and open to be served. Can I have twink tonight?
Many times if you can catch these young guys doing any type of physical work it can do so much to highlight their extra physical features.
All I can say for this photo is Wow!
Thanks again to all of you how help make our thread all that it is. Your creativity and willingness to share is most appreciated by many
^ I love Brent!

Under the agreement, Gross & Janes will process and pre-treat all green ties at both facilities with its patent-pending, non-pressurized borate treatment and Boatright will complete the tie processing with a creosote or copper napthenate pressurized treatment. Boatright will continue to purchase all green ties to be processed at both facilities.
"We are very pleased to be able to draw upon Gross & Janes Co.'s 90 years of experience in green crosstie processing," said Shane Boatright, chairman and chief executive officer of Boatright Companies, holding company for Boatright Railroad Products.
"This is an exciting joint venture between two leaders in the railroad tie industry," said Mike Pourney, president and chief executive officer of Gross & Janes. "Boatright Railroad Products and [its] customers will benefit from our industry expertise, while we continue to diversify our customer base. It is a win-win for everyone involved."

PAUL: I like the Civil Rights Act in the sense that it ended discrimination in all public domains, and I'm all in favor of that.Back in 2006, some of you may remember, I got into a very uncomfortable situation with some libertarians over precisely this issue. Rand Paul wasn't around, but I got a close-up view of some libertarians displaying an attitude about private race discrimination that literally made me cry:
INTERVIEWER: But?
PAUL: You had to ask me the "but." I don't like the idea of telling private business owners—I abhor racism. I think it's a bad business decision to exclude anybody from your restaurant—but, at the same time, I do believe in private ownership. But I absolutely think there should be no discrimination in anything that gets any public funding, and that's most of what I think the Civil Rights Act was about in my mind.
What disturbed me was the assertion in the writings that the public accommodations provisions of the 1964 Civil Rights Act were pernicious. And when I said that at the conference, a lot of the participates immediately challenged me. Did I think the law was right?!! This is what I mean by the excessive belief in the libertarian principle at the abstract level. These folks -- including [Reason Magazine's Ron] Bailey, I think -- would have left restaurants and hotels to continue discriminating against black people as long as they pleased. Someone asserted that the free market would solve the problem better than government regulation. I said that the restaurant in the case about the constitutionality of the 1964 Civil Rights Act in fact made more money by seating only white customers and serving take-out to black people. One other person at the table agreed, but the point was pushed past. It didn't fit the abstraction. I thought the failure to deal with this point was very damaging to the credibility of what we were reading and talking about.Much more at that second link. What we were reading and talking about — at a big, well-funded conference — was "a slim book touting a political philosophy that was used in its time very specifically to oppose civil rights and desegregation."
Too many people at the table wanted to talk -- at length and repetitiously -- about abstractions, such as the meaning of the word "virtue." I found this perverse and offensive.... Why should I respect this man [Frank] Meyer at all to want to engage with his book? He wrote screeds in the National Review urging the southern governors to take over the National Guard and fight off school desegregation!I have no idea if Rand Paul has the cold inner core that I saw amongst the libertarians in 2006. I would like to like him. But this point about private discrimination and the free market... Paul needs to tell the truth!

360-FAAR (Firewall Analysis Audit and Repair) is an offline, command line, Perl firewall policy manipulation tool to filter, compare to logs, merge, translate, and output firewall commands for new policies, in Checkpoint dbedit, Cisco ASA, or ScreenOS commands. It is all contained in one file. It can read policy and logs for: Checkpoint FW1 (in odumper.csv / logexport format), Netscreen ScreenOS (in get config / syslog format), and Cisco ASA (show run / syslog format). It uses both inclusive and exclusive CIDR and text filters, permitting you to split large policies into smaller ones for virutalization at the same time as removing unused connectivity. It supports policy to log association, object translation, rulebase reordering and simplification, rule moves, and duplicate matching automatically. It allows you to seamlessly move rules to where you need them. 'print' mode creates a spreadsheet for your audit needs with one command.

Actim allows you to send and retrieve files, and to call command line programs on a target machine via emails. The application can handle both synchronous and asynchronous requests with basic security features. It has both command line and graphical user interfaces.

An immigration plan announced Monday by a bipartisan group of senators would create a path to citizenship for illegal immigrants already in the country and overhaul legal immigration. It also calls for improved border security and better tracking of individuals in the U.S. on visas. Steve Inskeep talks with one of the senators behind the plan, Republican Jeff Flake from Arizona.
