Can somebody please tell us what to do next. My husband became deaf in sept. 2009 due to constant ear infections and had to have surgery which left him deaf. He put in for a claim for D L A dec. 2009 he did tell them that he was having a cochleia implant fitted in feb 2010 which is classed as a hearing aid as he cant wear it 24/7. They turned him down for D L A because according to them you have to have the illness for six month continuously. What they were actually saying was that although he is deaf the implant would make him better.... After eighteen long months my husband and I attended the hearing today. Our argument was that the implant is an aid not to make him better that is why they turned him down in the first place. Although they said they know hes deaf and sympathise they cannot award him D L A because by law he does not fit the criteria and yet that wasnt the decision why he was turned down in the first place. Why waste tax payers money letting us go to tribunal in the first place and why do some deaf people qualify and some dont I really do not understand this . The only reason he put in for this benefit in the first place is because he was advised by job center plus to do so . Do deaf people recieve D L A ?

It can be difficult to get DLA for deafness as you have to show that you have mobility and care needs to get DLA.
You would need to show on the form that your husband requires guidance and supervision while outdoors in order to keep him safe. Does he have balance problems as well as deafness.
You need to request a statement of reasons to see why the tribunal turned you down but DLA isn't awarded because you have an illness. The first criteria is that you need to hae had the illness for 3 months back and expect it to last another 6 months. so if he had the operation which would be expected to solve the problem within 6 months he wouldn't be due DLA.
This is the DLA criteria in full but if you deceide to reapply then try & get help from CAB or welfare rights when completing the form.
To qualify for DLA care component your care needs must ultimately stem from disability; both physical and mental disability may help you qualify. You must be so severely disabled physically or mentally that you require

No 4. "in order to avoid substantial danger to yourself or others you require another person to be awake for a prolonged period or at frequent intervals for the purpose of watching over you " or
Part-time day care
No 5 "you require in connection with your bodily functions attention from another person for a significant portion of the day (whether during a single period or a number of periods)" or
Cooking test
No 6"you cannot prepare a cooked main meal for yourself if you have the ingredients".
To get High rate care you need to satisfy
Either No 1 or No 2 daytime tests and
Either No 3 or No 4 night time tests
To get Middle rate care
Either No 1 or No 2 daytime tests or

He selected his victims randomly, authorities say, but targeted the vulnerable: the unemployed woman desperate for work, the woman recovering from a broken leg. He allegedly used charm to get close to them, before transforming into a vicious sexual predator who ignored their pleas for mercy.
Tikee Beverly, a 37-year-old Roxbury man, pleaded not guilty Tuesday in Suffolk Superior Court to 13 charges, including eight counts of rape, in the rapes of five women during a streak of sexual violence that began last Sept. 13 and ended only when he was arrested Feb. 4 after he allegedly raped two women in the previous two days.

Specifics of the plan include:
DETROIT (AP) -- Detroit's emergency financial manager filed a plan Friday that would bring the city out of bankruptcy, providing for the first time a detailed look at what the Motor City would look like when it finally sheds its financial burdens.The goal: A leaner, cleaner and safer Detroit.The plan, which still needs approval from a bankruptcy judge and will likely be subject to numerous appeals and challenges in the months to come, aims to pour money into the city's aging infrastructure and clean up the city's blighted neighborhoods by demolishing decrepit homes.
DOWNLOAD: Read Detroit's bankruptcy plan for adjustment
On the other side, retirees would see cuts to benefits, though Wall Street creditors will see just a fraction of what they're owed. "There is still much work in front of all of us to continue the recovery from a decades-long downward spiral," state-appointed manager Kevyn Orr said in a statement. "We must move swiftly to emerge from bankruptcy so that the financial distress harming the City can end.
ALSO SEE: Gov. Snyder: 'Detroit's comeback is underway'
"We maintain that the Plan provides the best path forward for all parties to resolve their respective issues and for Detroit to become once again a city in which people want to invest, live and work.The plan still faces numerous obstacles. Most aspects are still being negotiated in mediation sessions with stakeholders. Court appeals are all but certain even after the final version is approved in bankruptcy court.Orr has said the of the city's $18 billion in debt, about $12 billion is unsecured, meaning there aren't taxes or other revenue streams to pay it.Orr had hoped creditors would sign off on the plan before he submitted it to U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Steven Rhodes. But the clock was ticking because Rhodes had set a March 1 deadline. Nevertheless, with negotiations ongoing, changes are expected.
SPECIAL REPORT: Detroit's bankruptcy births a new, stronger police department
Pension officials have disputed that figure.Bankruptcy attorney and St. John's University law professor Anthony Sabino believes the plan could start an argument over being treated equally between the city's general workers and retirees and police and firefighters."It's intriguing Mr. Orr wants to have the firefighters and police have 90 percent and other city workers cut back to two-thirds," Sabino said Friday. "The other unions will say `even if we're uneven, we should be closer.' It does create an inequity that is going to have to be addressed in court."

Other NFL players, coaches share Ray Lewis memories [Pictures]
Ray Lewis left a lasting impression on many in the NFL in his 17 seasons with the Ravens.
Here are a few of their stories.

Here are a few of their stories.
-- Jeff Zrebiec, Aaron Wilson, Monique Jones and Peter Schmuck
Image 1 of 17
Brian Billick, former Ravens coach( Gene Sweeney Jr., Baltimore Sun / February 3, 2013 )
Brian Billick had heard all week about what his 2000 team's defense was going to do to the Cleveland Browns. The Lewis-led group already had four shutouts in the first 12 games, including one against the Browns in Week 5 that year. When the Browns arrived in Baltimore in late November with Doug Pederson as the starting quarterback, the Ravens expected more of the same.
"The guys were feeling it all week long, [saying] this is going to be another shutout," said Billick, the Ravens' coach from 1999 to 2007. "Well, Cleveland comes out and goes 86 yards on the opening drive. I'm walking down the sidelines, and Ray and Rod [Woodson] are coming off the field first. So I'm going to go do my head-coaching thing. And Ray looks at me and says, 'Don't say a thing, I got it.' So I go left to the Gatorade and get out of the way. They had 112 yards total for the day after giving up 86 on that drive. I said, 'OK, anytime you want to do that, you go right ahead, Ray.' I learned right then and there to stay out of the way."
Two months later, the Ravens defense was dominant again, this time in a 34-7 victory over the New York Giants in Super Bowl XXXV.
"When you see a Shannon Sharpe, a Rod Woodson, a Trent Dilfer, a Tony Siragusa, who have been in the league for a while and who normally would be those leaders, and they are willing to capitulate the leadership of this team to a young Ray Lewis, that told" him everything, Billick said. "Normally, those guys would have said, 'Hold on, young man, you can dance all you want, but I'm going to set the tone for this team.'
"[But] they saw it, and these are Hall of Famers, in the case of Shannon Sharpe and Rod Woodson. That told me there is something special about this guy [and] that they are willing to follow his lead. They knew what it led to."

The Honorable Janice D. Schakowsky
RE: FCC Ban on Non-Profit Use of Faxes to Communicate with Members
Dear Representative Schakowsky:
The American Society of Safety Engineers (ASSE) is a
nonprofit association headquartered in your district in Des Plaines,
Illinois, representing more than 30,000 occupational safety, health
and environmental professionals. Our members are individuals committed
to seeing that every American worker has the best possible opportunity
to go home each day healthy and safe from their jobs. The Society is
both the largest professional safety and health organization and, having
been founded in 1911, in existence the longest.
Without the fully considered views of the nonprofit community, the FCC has modified current law by doing away with the "established business relationship" provision pertaining to fax advertisements. As a result, associations will have to require "expressed written consent" from each of their members prior to sending a fax advertisement, including dues renewal statements and notices of upcoming educational events.
This new and entirely unnecessary reading of the TCPA
prohibits any person or entity from sending any fax that contains an
unsolicited advertisement, which is defined as
As a result, the established relationship our members have with ASSE that have, since the beginning of the Society, always assumed permission to communicate with them, is no longer sufficient to permit faxes to be transmitted. This valuable tool to communicate with our members will be lost unless ASSE incurs new administrative, record- keeping and economic burdens.
Of particular concern is that ASSE offers a great many educational opportunities for our members to advance their professional capabilities in improving workplace safety and healthy. The professionalism of individuals in safety and health is assured through the certification process, which requires annual course work to keep individuals up to date with technological and scientific advances. If this rule becomes effective, when unplanned changes in scheduling and course offerings occur suddenly or our members want to sign up for courses at the last minute, a fax may be the only way to contact them or provide them with necessary information in time. If the fax is about a seminar or course offering, it would be difficult for someone whose responsibility it is to enforce this new provision not to construe it as an advertisement. With penalties reaching $11,000 per unauthorized fax, this is a risk that ASSE cannot take.
An example of the unreasonable reach of this new regulation is the position already taken by the FCC that our members may not call us and verbally ask us to fax them something. The FCC requires a written authorization.
ASSE urges you to take legislative action to reverse this ill-conceived FCC initiative. Unlike each of us in our homes who are tired of being called by unsolicited business, ASSE's members have a relationship with us that they have actively pursued. More importantly, their continued positive view of ASSE is limit enough on our communications. When we contact them too much, they let us know. The federal government need not step into this already established relationship where ASSE is already keenly aware of when our members' have heard too much from us.
Thank you for your time and attention to this concern. If ASSE can provide you with any further information, please be sure to let us know. We would be happy to work with you to ensure that the FCC does not succeed in coming between ASSE and our members.

MIAMI — Falcons coach Mike Smith was pleased with the overall effort of the team after they snapped a seven-game exhibition season losing streak with a 23-6 victory over the Dolphins on Friday night at Sun Life Stadium.
Here are some of the excerpts from his post-game chat:
OPENING STATEMENT: "I was really pleased with some of the things that we did tonight. The effort was good in all three phrases. I felt that we improved defensively, especially on third down. That was one of the things that we didn't do very well in the last ball game. Offensively, I felt that we left some points out there. Not necessarily in the red zone all the time. Sometimes it was pre-red zone; just before you get into the red zone. I thought our special teams units played well. We had an opportunity to return a kickoff. I was very impressed with what Jacquizz Rodgers did. There are lots of things that we have to get fixed between now and next week as we go through the finish of the preseason. The toughest thing is getting the roster in place over the next 14 days and we'll be doing that going to 75 and then to 53.
ON MIAMI ROOKIE QB RYAN TANNEHILL: He's very athletic. I thought he did a nice job. It looked like he had a very good command of the offense. He moved well within it. He took off and ran it a couple of times. He had a nice 15-yard scramble on third down. He looked like he had a very good understanding of their offense. You could see that he was getting them into plays and out of plays based on the defensive looks.
SHORT YARDAGE OFFENSE: To me that was not a true short yardage (situation). It was a fourth down-and-2. It wasn't a fourth-and-1. We were right on the edge in terms of whether if we wanted to attempt a field goal in terms of the mark that we set in pre-game. There is a swirling win in this stadium. We felt like we had a chance to get the fourth down. We didn't convert it and at that point in time we probably left some points potentially on the field and not on the scoreboard.
ON MATT RYAN'S RED HOT EXHIBITION SEASON: I think Matt had a very productive preseason. Again, the preseason is working on things. You do game plan somewhat in this third preseason game. There were still some things we wanted to work on and in turn, that fit into what we were doing game-plan wise. I think Matt maybe was somewhere over 72, maybe somewhere closer to 75 percent in his completions here in the preseason. Matt did a nice job. I think he has a really good understanding of what we are trying to get done with our new staff.
ON SECOND ROUND PICK PETER KONZ WITH THE FIRST TEAM OFFENSE: It was very important. We said all along that we were going to have open competition. There was going to be evaluations across the board at every position and I think that we've done that through the first three games. We still have another game that will allow us to continue that evaluation. But we made sure that – when we've been able to do it – we've been rotating guys in there. Probably along the offensive line, that is the toughest one to do. But we were able to do it because of the length of time the No. 1 team was out on the field. So we got an opportunity to see him out there with the first team.
ON JULIO JONES: I think Julio continues to mature from year one to year two. He has a better understanding of what being an NFL player is.
ON AKEEM DENT: I thought Akeem did some nice things. I think you'll see that we actually gave him some work in our (nickel) package. The majority of his time was spent on first and second down, but we wanted to give him some extra work. He was out there in our sub package in the third quarter.
ON THE PASS RUSH: They did a nice job in terms of their game plan with their quarterback and what they wanted to get accomplished. We didn't fit the run a little bit. They wanted to run the ball a little bit and we didn't fit it. The quarterback scrambled on us on a rush-lane integrity issue. But I thought they had a very good game plan in terms of allowing their quarterback to get into a rhythm. He made some throws and he made some plays. I think the guy is going to be a good quarterback. He's going to be a very good quarterback.

9:38 am
The Dolfin fielded a good defense and they certainly impacted our drives. Our Offense looked good. Even Turner seemed to run with some power. I think we saw Ryans limit on the deep pass which only means that Ryan will through the ball a little sooner. Julio had no problem out running the best DB Miami had. Good Game.
August 25th, 2012

August 25th, 2012

Holmes looked good. He was working against backups but he did his job and quite well at that. Note one pass play where he took his man out and jumped to the left quickly to take out someone else rushing around the end. He is big, strong and moves. He has an appreciation of the QB's blind side for certain. I liked what little we saw of him last night. Certainly very good for his first time on the NFL field. Nice to see him in action.
I second the terrible TV coverage (again). It tore me up not to be able to see the team in action while dope after dope rambled on and on. Let the dopes get their own TV show and see if anyone tunes in. When we turn on the TV to watch our Falcons, we seroiusly want to see our FALCONS! It is fine to have questions for Mr. Blank but work them into the telecast as color comentary and don't lose sight of the fact that there is a game in progress. We want to evaluate new talent as best we can and we certainly missed a lot of plays while this crap drove us nuts. If these guys actually did some preparation, they could even comment themselves on Atlanta/Miami draft choices and free agents that are fighting for a job with replays of their performance. I'm not certain they were even aware that quarterbacks changed let alone position players. This team might be ready to do the job in two weeks and decisions regarding cuts should be easier this year than they typically are… GO FALCONS!
August 25th, 2012
10:07 am
I will third the TV announcers. Did anybody else notice that they had Arthur Blank muted. I guess they figure nobody was interested in what he have to say. Next week, maybe they mute the announcers mic.
August 25th, 2012
10:17 am
Domonique Davis will definitely beat out Wilson–already has. Anybody notice that Tim Toone has some excellent speed, moves, and hands. Reminds me a bit of Wes Welker. And why does everyone include Kerry Meier as the fourth receiver as if it's a given. The guy is always out injured not a good sign if you want to make the team.
Antone Smith looks good when he's on the field.
Akeem Dent doesn't have a clue when he's in pass coverage–and if he does he can't stick with his man. Going to be a problem when the season starts.
Samuel doesn't look good so far and can't tackle–Rex Ryan was right.
William Moore could be all-pro this year.
Somebody sign Grimes to a long time contract–he's the only legitimate corner we've got.
Our running game doesn't scare anyone. Our offensive line still can't move anyone out of the way to open ahole.
With the schedule the Falcons are a 9-7 team this year.And someone get some announcers that can tell us who the hell is on the field.
August 25th, 2012
12:58 pm
I truly love Smitty but I never learn a thing from his pressers. He seems incapable of providing true criticism or honest, open evaluation to the press.
"What did you think of Hitler Coach Smith?"
"Well, I thought he did some nice things. I'll have to look at the History Channel films to truly gauge what he did."
August 25th, 2012
1:36 pm
I thought our OL did not perform well on most (at least alot) of obivous passing downs.
It seems MR was hurrying most of his throws.
Guys this was not a top tier team and with a rookie QB. I think we are not as good as I had hoped we would be w/ the new cood's. Can we beat any teams with winning records. Will this year be like the last??
August 25th, 2012
4:07 pm
Those TV announcers were awful!!!! When they kept talking about Bosher kicking field goals instead of Bryant I was ready to turn down the TV volume and start listening to the radio play-by-play announcers.
August 25th, 2012
4:43 pm
Dominique Davis, is our number two quarterback, if he's not he should be. He should be seriously considered as the future number one. If Matt doesn't get it done this year, there should be some serious competition for the starting job in next years camp. This guy can play he knows the game and has a better handle of the offense than both Redman and Wilson combined. I would love to see what he could do with the first team offense, we won't because people would see just how good he is. Ryan still can't throw the deep ball with strength.

Letter: Promises not kept
The Douglas County DFL headquarters has a sign that reads "Promises Made – Promises Kept," which made me think of Rep. Jay McNamar. When over 60 percent of his district voted to keep traditional marriage, he promised to support that if elected. After elected, Rep. McNamar...

These hard-boiled snorkelers are fully equipped for a dip in the blue (or green or pink). For a hilarious centerpiece, display a row of the finished dudes sitting in their dye-ving tanks.
For each snorkeler, dye the bottom third of an egg, then let it dry.
Draw eyes on a label and adhere it to a water-bottle lid. Slip the rubber band around the egg, about a quarter of the way down. Glue the lid over a rubber band.
Trim a straw 1 inch above and 2 inches below the flexible section. Bend it into a snorkel shape and glue it in place.
Cut foam flippers (trace our template ). Glue them to the egg, adhesive side down, and let dry. Stick the adhesive side to the display surface, or, if you like, to the inside of a small glass or bowl. With the pitcher, gently pour in dye until the egg is partly submerged.

Nephrocalcinosis is a disorder in which there is excess calcium deposited in the kidneys.
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
Any disorder that leads to high levels of calcium in the blood or urine may lead to nephrocalcinosis. In nephrocalcinosis, calcium deposits form in the kidney tissue itself. Most of the time, both kidneys are affected.
Nephrocalcinosis is related to, but not the same as, kidney stones (nephrolithiasis).
Conditions that can cause nephrocalcinosis include:
- Alport syndome
- Bartter syndrome
- Chronic glomerulonephritis
- Medullary sponge kidney
- Primary hyperoxalurias
- Renal transplant rejection
- Renal tubular acidosis
- Renal cortical necrosis
Other possible causes of nephrocalcinosis include:
- Ethylene glycol toxicity
- Hypercalcemia (excess calcium in the blood) due to hyperparathyroidism
- Use of certain medications, such as acetazolamide, amphotericin B, and triamterene
- Tuberculosis of the kidney and infections related to AIDS
- Vitamin D toxicity
This condition is relatively common in premature infants.
There are generally no early symptoms of nephrocalcinosis, beyond those of the condition causing the problem.
People who also have kidney stones may have:
- Blood in the urine
- Fever and chills
- Nausea and vomiting
- Severe pain in the belly area, sides of the back (flank), groin, or testicles
Later symptoms related to nephrocalcinosis may be associated with chronic kidney failure.
Signs and tests
Nephrocalcinosis may be discovered when symptoms of renal insufficiency, kidney failure, obstructive uropathy, or urinary tract stones develop.
Imaging tests can help diagnose this condition. Tests that may be done include:
- Abdominal CT scan
- Ultrasound of the kidney
Other tests that may be done to diagnose and determine the severity of associated disorders include:
- Blood tests to check levels of calcium, phosphate, uric acid, and parathyroid homrone
- Urinalysis to see crystals and check for red blood cells
- 24-hour urine collection to measure acidity and levels of calcium, sodium, uric acid, oxalate, and citrate
The goal of treatment is to reduce symptoms and prevent more calcium from being deposited in the kidneys.
Measures should be taken to reduce abnormal levels of calcium, phosphate, and oxalate in the blood. Medications that cause calcium loss will usually be stopped.
Conditions that result from the disorder should be treated as appropriate.
Kidney stones should be treated.
Expectations (prognosis)
What to expect depends on the extent of complications and the cause of the disorder.
Although further deposits in the kidneys can be prevented with good treatment, deposits already formed usually cannot be eliminated. Extensive deposits of calcium in the kidneys does NOT always mean severe damage to the kidneys.
- Acute renal failure
- Chronic renal failure
- Kidney stones
- Obstructive uropathy (acute or chronic, unilateral or bilateral)
Calling your health care provider
Call your health care provider if you know you have a disorder that causes high levels of calcium in your blood and you develop symptoms of nephrocalcinosis.
Prompt treatment of disorders that lead to nephrocalcinosis, including renal tubular acidosis, may help prevent it from developing.

BUST Magazine
Date: Thursday, April 07, 2011 - 7:30 pm
Duration: 1 Hour
Acclaimed character actress, comic, and YouTube sensation Nadya
Ginsburg will present the New York premiere of her solo comedy
MADONNALOGUES. This critically-praised comedy will be presented for
one night only, Thursday, April 7 at 7:30pm at The Laurie Beechman
Theater (inside West Bank Cafe at 407 West 42nd Street -- at Ninth
Avenue, accessible from the A,C,E,N,R,V,F,1,2,3 trains at 42nd
Street). Tickets are $15 plus a $15 food/drink minimum. To purchase
tickets, call 212-352-3101 or visit www.SpinCycleNYC.com. A full bar
and waiter service is available throughout the performance.
Nadya Ginsburg has been called "brilliant" by Roseanne Barr, "genius"
by Perez Hilton, and Al Roker thinks ³she rules.² Her MADONNALOGUES is
a night of unparalleled original characters (Babka the Russian bikini
waxer, Belinda the guidette vampire, and more), trademark
celebrity-skewing (including the Material Girl and egg-lover Lady
Gaga) and song. It also features an appearance by special guest Dr
Dreidel, the rapping Rabbi (www.facebook.com/doctordreidel).
A self-styled ³edgy Jew-talian Tracy Ullman² Ginsburg honed her talent
for creating offbeat original characters and celebrity impressions on
the stages of New York City along side the likes of Amy Poehler and
Sarah Silverman. As a voiceover actor Ginsburg has lent her thousand
voices to everything from Japanimation films to national radio spots.
She was brought to Los Angeles to be a series regular on the WB sketch
comedy series HYPE and has written and starred in series for Comedy
Central, VH1, MTV and Lifetime Television. Nadya has guest-starred on
Bill Murray¹s Sweetspot on Comedy Central, NBC¹s The Rerun Show and
Frank TV on TBS. She worked alongside Parker Posey in the feature film
Adam & Steve and recently co-starred and co-wrote a webisode series
produced by and co starring Roseanne Barr, Jackie Beat and Selene
Luna. Nadya also has an international cult following for the YouTube
series The Worm that she co-wrote and in which she plays Cher,
Madonna, Britney Spears, Winona Ryder, Gloria Steinem, a Brooklyn
housewife and a giant Worm. Nadya¹s Lady Gaga parody ³Al Roker Face²
garnered her a guest appearance on the Today Show with Al Roker and
Meredith Vierra who called the video ³the funniest thing² they had
ever seen. ³Al Roker Face² was featured on Yahoo¹s home page and her
appearance won ³Today¹s msnbc.com¹s Moment Of The Week² poll by a 81
percent landslide. Nadya has been featured in Q Magazine in London,
In Style Magazine, New York Magazine, The Village Voice, Heeb
Magazine, The New York Times and Time Out Tel Aviv.

Unfortunately there were lot of children staying for the soccer cup. But they went to bed. All good."
The stay was only overnight, but the close proximity of everything was good."
Clean, spacious rooms, older type Motel but more than adequate. Walking distance to Stockman's Hall of Fame & Qantas Museum. Dinner at Motel Dining Room was most enjoyable & good value. Would stay again if visiting Longreach."
Room was clean comfortable & I was able to enjoy a cold beer or two & have a good meal."
Beautiful motel. Beds fantastic. Looked new, very neat & clean, friendly hosts. It was about 200 mtrs off main road & so was extremely quiet. Did some washing in their laundry. A bit of a walk to shops but you are only looking at 10-15 mins. Shame we only stayed for one night. Would not hesitate to stay here again."
It was lovely to find such a great motel in the middle of nowhere with a little touch of luxury. Stayed here on the way to Carnarvon Gorge. Bed great, clean & big room, friendly staff. They also offer limited meals, so can't ask for much more. Also has the pub/bowling club but I think only opened on certain nights for dinner so better to check. An extremely small town so nothing much to do."

SS3 on lighttpd - /dev/xxx returns blank screen
16 June 2012 at 1:32am Last edited: 16 June 2012 1:50am
Hi everyone
I'm having a problem with ss3 on lighttpd: the frontend and cms seem to work fine, but all urls starting with /dev/ return blank screens (no errors)
I'm using the default settings here http://doc.silverstripe.org/sapphire/en/trunk/installation/lighttpd, as they always worked on 2.4...
The weird thing is that the proper functions are called: DevelopmentAdmin->Index() on /dev/, TaskRunner->Index() on /dev/tasks/ For instance: if I add an exit(); to the end of the Taskrunner->index() function, all the tasks are now printed to the screen just fine. But after that something happens that results in a blank...
I do not have any problems with Apache. Of course it could be due to some other settings I have made in Lighttpd, but I really don't know where to look any more...
[EDIT - even trimmed lighttpd.conf to the bare minimum at the temp. expense of all other sites...]
Can anyone reproduce this?
Thanks, Martine

Hmmm. Interesting, I have the same problem on a live server with Apache. Did not have time to thoroughly look, will let you know if I find a fix.

That's strange. Are you referring to 3.0 as well? So maybe it isn't a lighttpd thing at all. Anyone else have this?
It looks like some redirect happens after the tekst is displayed - for instance /dev/tasks/ should only display the list of tasks and do nothing else after that. But if I remove the exit() from the Taskrunner->index() function, obviously it does do something else (turn everything to white)
And there are no errors... And firebug doesn't help...

So far:
In my case the culprit was output buffering, preventing headers from being sent automatically with the generated output. So SilverStripe tries to create the headers 'manually' in SS_HTTPResponse->output(). Unfortunately the HTTPRespons body is always empty, so the Content-Length header is set to 0. That's the blank screen...
One way of getting the headers to be sent automatically seems to be flushing the output buffer.
In SS_HTTPResponse->output() around line 224:
} else {
ob_flush(); <-- ADD
if(!headers_sent()) {
header($_SERVER['SERVER_PROTOCOL'] . " $this->statusCode " . $this->getStatusDescription());
foreach($this->headers as $header => $value) {
header("$header: $value", true, $this->statusCode);
This works but I've no idea yet about the impact on other code...
Another option would be to set output_buffering = off in php.ini
But obviously the respons body shouldn't be empty in the first place, and I don't quite know how that should be accomplished just yet, so this is not really a patch. I'll try and find a better solution to create one.

Applied your fix to my production environment , did the trick as well.
And yes, I'm referring to SS3 on Apache. Ssssttrrraaaange, no ?
Should we raise a ticket about this ?
Re: SS3 on lighttpd - /dev/xxx returns blank screen
26 June 2012 at 2:30am Last edited: 26 June 2012 2:31am
So I created a ticket here - and then found out after I submitted it that the ob_flush() solution had issues after all
I think this temporary(!) fix might work better, but it definitely isn't a patch and I wisely kept it from the ticket this time. It removes the Content-Length header if it is 0. Tested in ff, safari, chrome on mac:
HTTPResponse.php line 227 - replace:
foreach($this->headers as $header => $value) {
header("$header: $value", true, $this->statusCode);
foreach($this->headers as $header => $value) {
if ($header != 'Content-Length' || $value != '0') {
header("$header: $value", true, $this->statusCode);

Not a solution, but I found you can force the output by including the showqueries parameter however there's a lot of output to sort through after.
For now I'm doing my /dev/build from the command line where it seems to work fine.
framework/sake dev/build flush=all

Just for extra info: I cannot get any output from dev/build either, but have found that adding the parameter debug=1 forces some output - and it may be less extra output than showqueries (which doesn't force output for me).

Portuguese withholding tax increase approved - 9/11/2012
Portuguese withholding tax increase approved
As previously mentioned in our Operational Tax News dated 27 September 2012, the Portuguese government had presented to the Parliament a set of measures which included relevant legal amendments in the field of taxation.
These new legal provisions, which introduce significant changes as regards the Portuguese tax framework, have been finally approved.
Updated tax rates for withholding tax
The new withholding rate for investment income obtained by non-resident entities arising from Portugal has now been set at 26,5% (compared to 25% previously).
As expected, payments to privileged non-residents have also been affected. In these cases, withholding taxation has been raised to 35% (compared to 30% previously), except when the real identity of the beneficial owner is fully disclosed.
For further details notably regarding the new stamp duty rate on real estate, please refer to the tax alert issued by our Portuguese colleagues.
Consequences for the Luxembourg funds
Luxembourg SICAV have, in principle, access to the Luxembourg-Portugal Double Tax Treaty (DTT). The domestic Portuguese taxation may potentially be reduced to the treaty rate of 15% further to the application of this DTT. Luxembourg FCP do not have access to the DTT and can only rely on the local exemption in order to escape the taxation at 26,5%.
If you have any queries regarding the above, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Activation and new user registration email not delivered
Hi all. I have an issue where the two emails that are supposed to go out when a new user registers on the site, the activation email to the user and the 'new user registration' email to the admin, does not get sent / delivered. I've tried deactivating all my plugins and deactivated my premium buddypress theme but it still didn't work. Only after disabling buddypress and using the standard WordPress install, does a user receive their activation email. I have searched high and low, but I just cannot get to the bottom of this, but as soon as I activate buddypress, it stops working. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Justin.

Mobiblu DAH-220 Cassette Flash MP3 Player
Posted by Categories: Portable Audio / Video
Mobiblu has figured out what other MP3 player companies seem to have missed - we use these things in our car. In order to make it a bit more convenient, this new portable flash MP3 player is shaped like a cassette. It has adjustable magnetic pickup heads and works like a normal tape when inserted into a car stereo, even responding to the fast-forward and rewind controls on the tape deck while allowing you to set the speed. It is also an FM tuner, voice recorder, built in EQ settings, direct recording, multiple repeat modes and a LCD controller which can be attached for a convenient control screen. Seven hours of playback time and an MMC expansion slot round this one out. It's USB capable and works with Windows 98, ME, 2000, XP and Macintosh OS9.X and OS X.

pretty slick, too bad i dont have a cassette player
whats a cassette player? better yet, whats a cassette?
This isn't new in the least. I remember seeing one quite similar (although with less space/battery) way back when MP3 players first started. I would say that I first saw a "cassette mp3 player" around 99-00.

Yes indeed, Nikon has rolled out a new S series of cameras and best of all, the Coolpix S9300 Includes GPS � I recall testing a Kodak that sported integrated GPS back in 2000 if you can believe that, however, Kodak never did roll out that device to the masses.. too bad, perhaps if they had the company might not be going under! Moving forward, I�ve been a photo buff for years, however, I�ve often wondered why all cameras don�t come equipped with built in GPS. There�s no doubt that the technology exists and with social sharing so prevalent, particularly social location, you�d have to think that integrated GPS is a no brainer.
Finally Nikon has delivered a product for Joe average that also includes built-in GPS � enter the S9300. From Nikon� S9300 also offers a built-in GPS function. A new movie function for saving and playing back movies, which allows for recording of multiple scenes that are then saved as a single file, has been adopted.

While Sunday night rock shows can sometimes be a bummer, the atmosphere at The Middle East Downstairs in Cambridge, MA on April 18th was one of anticipation. Before the first of the night's 3 bands had taken the stage, fans were already claiming their spots up front to assure a good view of headliners The Thermals.
Each member of Atlanta, Georgia's The Coathangers sported a fake mustache as they kicked off their set with "Haterade" from their 2007 self-titled debut. The first few songs were a little rough but, luckily, the band's catchy, in-your-face indie punk was in full-swing by the third song. They powered their way through "Killdozer" and "Gettin' Mad and Pumpin' Iron" from 2009′s Scramble and even sped up a version of their mid-tempo ballad "Dreamboat" so that it sounded like a 1960s girl-group tune on steroids. Since this was my second time seeing The Coathangers (and my second time reviewing them for this blog), I was eagerly anticipating the intensity that The Coathangers' live show delivers. The band did not disappoint: They threw all of their energy into every song, so much so that when guitarist Julia Kugel took her turn behind the drum kit, she hit a cymbal so hard that it fell off it's stand. She collected the cymbal from her lap with one hand and tossed it out of the way, literally, without missing a single beat. The Thermals bassist Kathy Foster, mustached of course, joined the band onstage for their last song, fan favorite "Don't Touch My Shit."

The parents of a slain Auburn University student from suburban Atlanta say they've filed an official claim against the school.
Lauren Burk's parents told WSB-TV they believe she might still be alive if the school had a campus police department.
Burk, a graduate of Walton High School in Marietta, Ga., was abducted from a campus parking lot and killed in March 2008. Courtney Lockhart was convicted in her murder and was sentenced to death.
WSB-TV reports that Auburn cannot be sued because of sovereign immunity laws. The Burk family says it has filed a claim against the school with the state's Board of Adjustment. The board can consider the claim and use state money to compensate cases that it feels have merit. The Burks' claim asks for $1 million.

Very solid stock. Misleading ad though...it has forward grip as pictured. I knew it did not come with it due to the description, but still a poor business practice. A bit disappointed in SG.
Now with this product I am very impressed as it was shipped from manufacture and arrived a lot earlier than expected buy almost 2 weeks When I opened it up could not believe how ATI takes pride in not only making a good product but the detail in packaging. Very impressive!
Ordered on 9/22/13, delivery date to be 11th month. Received it w/in 5 days of order. Also, removed standard stock and installed pistol grip full butt stock in about 15 minutes. Phillips head, and long ext. w/5/16" socket did the job on my '88'. RAC
very easy to install and looks great.
Very nice item and the factory sent itout the same day and received it in about 2 days

So when I saw this card I was thrilled - - it was perfect - - so nice to see a baby shower invitation in a style other than the traditional pink or blue. I love Ann Kelle's work."

Let's Count the Ways We're Not Like Barbie
Blythe Newsome: My daughter, Elspeth, got some Barbie dolls for her birthday recently, and everywhere we go, she brings her Barbies. Elspeth (who just turned 7), happily told me, "Mommy, you are not like Barbie." I made the mistake of asking her why.
First, she informed me that I am not a princess like Barbie. I will accept the princess thing. I am not a princess, but if I was, I would be the Princess of Laundry Land. All the people who live in Laundry Land would stop by and throw their clothes at me. And, like magic, when I tossed their clothes back to them, the clothes would be magically clean and fresh, except for the items that were left in the kingdom's washer overnight and smell a bit musty. Barbie, on the other hand, must be a princess. Her mansion and townhouse are located in our playroom, and amazingly enough (given all the clothes she has), neither house has a laundry room.
I don't have a cool vehicle like Barbie. She has a bus, a convertible and a VW Beetle. I want to see Barbie with a Suburban that has toys falling out whenever a door is opened. I want to see her expression when she sees how much it costs to fill it up with enough gas to taxi the children everywhere. I bet that Barbie would suddenly get a few worry lines around her mouth.
And then there is the most obvious difference that Elspeth pointed out: I don't look like Barbie. I don't have pretty yellow hair like Barbie. "Mommy, you have flat brown hair," Elspeth says.
She has a Midge doll that is pregnant (she came that way; it didn't happen in my house). When Midge has the baby, her belly simply slips off her body and she is thin again. No stretch marks are on her stomach; her legs are tan and beautiful and not marked by varicose veins; her breasts haven't changed a bit. Elspeth was kind enough to show me that Midge's stomach is hard while mine is squishy. "Want to feel?" she asked me, not knowing that deep down, I am not liking that Barbie for her flat, plastic stomach.
If my daughter wants to dream that she can be a princess, have a house without a laundry room, drive different vehicles without any payments and always walk around with a perfect tan and a smile on her face, that is OK. That is why we call it a dream.
Do the dreams we have with Barbie as little girls damage us as adults? Probably not. After all, I played with Barbies as a little girl, and as I grew up, I learned that I wasn't a princess, Ken wouldn't always be there and that even without a flat stomach, I could still be happy -- really happy.
Wanted to drop a comment and let you know your Rss feed is not functioning today. I tried adding it to my Bing reader account and got absolutely nothing.
I love that website layout . How do you make it!? It's really sweet.
This is a wonderful website, could you be interested in going through an interview about just how you designed it? If so e-mail me and my friends!
This website is very cool. How can I make one like this !
Have you given any kind of consideration at all with converting your current web site in to Spanish? I know a small number of translaters right here that would help you do it for no cost if you wanna make contact with me.
I'm still learning from you, but I'm trying to reach my goals. I absolutely liked reading all that is posted on your website.Keep the stories coming. I loved it
I was basically curious about if you ever considered modifying the layout of your website? It is very well written; I really like what you have got to say. But maybe you can create a a bit more in the way of written content so people might connect with it better. You have got a great deal of wording for only having one or two photographs. Maybe you could space it out better?
When I open up your Rss feed it seems to be a lot of junk, is the problem on my part?
If you could message me with any hints & tips about how you made this website look like this, Id be thankful.
Have you thought about adding some videos to your article? I think it will really enhance viewers understanding.
After I open up your Rss feed it appears to be a lot of garbage, is the problem on my side?
I experimented with viewing your web site in my mobile phone and the design doesnt seem to be right. Might wanna check it out on WAP as well as it seems most cellphone layouts are not really working with your web page.
Strange , your posting turns up with a dark hue to it, what color is the primary color on your site?

The idea being, to enable people in developing communities to host TEDx events using the technology supplied in the Box. How the box works is that you have two Nokia N8 phones, Nokia MD-8 speakers and an Optoma PK201 Pico Projector. With these, you should be able to play TEDTalks (which are preloaded) and also record live speakers at your TEDx event.TEDxSoweto became the first recipient of "the box" in South Africa. We looked at the different parts of Soweto and decided to focus on Kliptown. Established around 1903, Kliptown is the oldest residential settlement in Soweto. Today approximately 80% of its 45,000 residents still do not have running water, basic sanitation or electricity. The community does not have a school, and children have to travel long distances to attend school in other parts of Soweto.In looking for community members to work with, we found a youth development programme (Kliptown Youth Project) that runs a tutoring program for kids, a library, a feeding scheme and has a community hall that is equipped with one solar panel and a generator. The project has 300 XO computers from the One Laptop Per Child (OLPC)program.We hosted a half a day workshop with members the youth project to get a better understanding of the community needs. At the end of the day, we agreed that education is their number one priority. The theme for the event became Education and Technology.On the 28th May 2011 we hosted TEDxKliptown with 4 speakers, a dance performance and 40 attendees.Selecting which TEDTalks to play was easy. Almost everyone who was at the event knew of Professor Nicholas Negroponte and MIT. We played Nicholas Negroponte's One Laptop Per Child talk and Pravan Misty's Sixth Sense talk. As far removed from MIT as Kliptown is, the young people who are direct beneficiaries of the OLPC project could not only relate to Negroponte's talk but could also see the possibilities thatMistry's sixth sense technology presents.The speakers were all part of the Kliptown story:Hannah Weber is a student at Dartmouth College but originally from Boston, Massachusetts, USA. She first visited Kliptown in 2005 when she was 15 years old. Getting back to Boston she and her sister raised funds to buy 100 XO computers from the OLPC organisation and sent them to the Kliptown Youth Project. Since then, the project has managed to get 200 more computers. She talked about finding hope in Kliptown and how she has witnessed the difference the project has made in the livesof children in the community.Thulani Madondo is the founder of the Kliptown Youth Project. After his studies, he wanted to make a contribution to his community. Together with other young people they started the project and never looked back. Through this he is currently assisting other projects in Rwanda and Swaziland to implement their OLPC programmes.Simphiwe Mthembu was one of the first beneficiaries of the XO computer when they first arrived in South Africa in 2008. She attributes her success to having been exposed to the XO computers and understanding technology better.Shelley Bragg works as a marketing consultant for the International School in Shanghai China. When her school wanted to start a gumboot dance project, she remembered visiting a community in Soweto where the kids were very good gumboot dancers. How can she bring them to Shanghai? She quickly remembered that the kids also had XO computers which were internet enabled and if she linked them to the school via Skype, then her students in China would understand. After severalSkype gumboot dance performances, the Kliptown Youth gumboot dancers were able to visit Shanghai and Beijing.The technology in the "Box" had its challenges, but ultimately delivered a great event.With one phone, you can show TEDTalks and project them to a white surface. The Nokia speakers are good for an audience of up to 30 people. The TEDTalks are pre-loaded onto the phone or you can upload new talks directly from TED.com using Wi-Fi or wireless 3G Technology provided by your local cellular phone company. The 16GB memory on the phone makes it possible to store up to 30 TED Talks. You can then use the second Nokia N8 phones, to record live speakers.Like any TEDx event, some of the speakers had power point presentations and wanted to show video clips. We had to transfer the presentations and video clips from their laptops to one Nokia N8 phone via Bluetooth. The speakers could then use the phone to run through the presentations and play their clips. We then used the second phone to record the talks. The next process is to edit all that into seamless TEDxKliptown talks.The challenges? Well the battery life on the N8 phones is relatively ok. You can play up 6 TEDTalks or record four 18 minutes presentations. After this you need power supply. The Nokia MD-8 speakers did not work very well. Thanks to my Jawbone Jambox that I received in my TED 2011 gift bag we had backup speakers. Unfortunately the Optoma Pico Projector could only work for one hour without powersupply. The venue had a power source that we could use.For the first time, we were able to demonstrate to the community of Kliptown that cellular phones and the use of mobile technology has a potential to transform their community. In the past hosting such an event might not have been possible without computers, electricity, sophisticated filming equipment and a big budget. With TEDx in a Box, the community was able to finally watch Professor Negroponte talk ,witness how the XO computers have transformed their lives and begin to imagine what else is possible.The total budget for the event was $200 which was mainly for coffee, biscuits and printing costs.We decided that we will host bimonthly TEDxKliptown events starting again in August 2011 and are looking at possibilities of rolling out the project to other parts of South Africa that have similar challenges like Kliptown.Written by Kelo Kubu, TEDxSoweto Organizer and TEDx Africa Ambassador Developing World South Africa last-minute-vakantie reblogged this from tedxadimatic reblogged this from tedxtedx posted this
