Who is God?
One thing I've become aware of in these conversations is that TEDsters have many different opinions on who God is. Hopefully this conversation will become a collection of those viewpoints.
Please don't attack other people's ideas. If you want, ask questions for clarification. But be respectful.
And tell us, in your opinion - who is God?

Apr 3 2011: God is a projection into the unknown. An attempt to answer to the unanswerable. For me, God is a concept born of humanities innate need to find earthly meaning, boundaries, stories; to explain and contain life within a framework that not only validates us and our place in the universe, but is within our mental grasp. It's a reaction against the mind boggling enigma of life, and the mystery of time, space, and the infinite. It's a coping mechanism; Our fear of uncertainty becomes denial, wrapped in a security blanket of cosy belief, huddled against the great dark unknown, reassured in the conceit that we have 'the' answer. I'm sorry if some find this offensive. It's not my intention; just an honest attempt to describe what 'God' means to me. Maybe there is a God, maybe there isn't. Who ultimately knows. I'd like to deeply sincerely believe in a good and just God, but I simply can't. It just doesn't ring true, and never really has. The deeper I look into the question, the more unlikely it seems. If someone else believes, that's fine, as long as they don't expect me to as well. Why belief is such an issue mystifies me a little to be honest. Surely how you lead your life is more important than whether or not you believe in God. I try to lead a good honest life, to be kind to others, uphold values I've come to consider worthwhile; respect, consideration, compassion etc. I try to do the right thing because it seems like the right thing to do, not because some higher being ordains it. I like to think others will judge me by how I lived my life, rather than whether or not I 'chose' to believe in God. Not that I understand how you can choose such things; You either believe or you don't.
Apr 20 2011: Dear Andrew O'Sullivan,
during history many people lived. but few knew real God. your idea is right but about deities and about people pray statue.
many people use God as a projection into the unknown. but not all people.
please not that you can not escape death.
all disease has drug but death.
after death there is no chance to back to this world.
today is doing and not reward, tomorrow is reward and not doing
if heaven and hell is true then what you will do?
so belief is very important.
we should solve problem of God before death.
death has no news. death comes immediately.
thinking about God is more important than eating and life style.
time is going and life is finishing and death is cumming.
Apr 20 2011: If heaven and hell exist, then I'll deal with which ever I have to when the time comes. How can I possibly hope to resolve whether or not God, heaven and hell exist in this lifetime. I can see no compelling evidence to suggest they do, and likewise can't prove they don't, nor want to waste my time with such speculation. Solve the problem of God? What's to solve? Where is the problem?How is thinking about God going to make the world a better place or me a better person? Why would God want me to think about God? To what end? Time is going to be finished and death is coming, I suspect you are right in that respect. I fail to comprehend how pondering God is going to change that one way or the other. If God condemns me to eternal hell because I doubted his existance, then so be it. But it seems such far fetched and outlandish notion I couldn't get worked up about if I tried. There are far more pressing concerns such as eating, life style, and trying to be a good person, do the right thing, have a positive rather than negative impact on those around me.
Apr 21 2011: Hi Andrew
"How can I possibly hope to resolve whether or not God, heaven and hell exist in this lifetime."
Millions have done just that. Things are entirely different when you realise you are eternal. Friendships become eternal, or potentially eternal, & life becomes much more meaningful.

MILWAUKEE (WTAQ) - A large pledge has been made to help three young kids who lost their parents in a murder-suicide in Milwaukee.
An anonymous donor says he or she will put up $10,000, if others match it with the same amount.
Alderman Bob Donovan started the charity fund, after Dontavion Smith shot his girlfriend Janie Jefferson and then killed himself.
It happened six days before Christmas at their home on Milwaukee's south side. Both parents were 26.
Donovan said the anonymous donor contacted him Monday. Contributions are being taken at Tri-City National Bank branches.

Credit and Liquidity Programs and the Balance Sheet

Longer-term issues
In response to the financial crisis, the Federal Reserve created a number of special lending facilities to stabilize the financial system and support economic activity. As market conditions and the economic outlook have improved, almost all of these programs have been terminated. The Federal Reserve also promoted economic recovery through sharp reductions in its target for the federal funds rate and through purchases of securities. At some point as the economic expansion matures, the Federal Reserve will need to normalize the stance of monetary policy and the size and composition of its balance sheet in order to foster its macroeconomic objectives of maximum employment and price stability.

The Federal Reserve's Balance Sheet: An Update
Speech by Chairman Ben S. Bernanke, October 8, 2009
Federal Reserve's Exit Strategy
Testimony by Chairman Ben S. Bernanke, February 10, 2010
- Minutes of the June 21-22, 2011, Meeting of the FOMC
- Minutes of the June 18-19, 2013, Meeting of the FOMC
- Minutes of the April 29-30, 2014, Meeting of the FOMC
The Federal Reserve's expanded balance sheet has left the banking system holding a very large quantity of reserves. As a consequence, the Federal Reserve has been developing a number of tools to strengthen its control of short-term interest rates, importantly including new tools to reduce the large quantity of reserves held by the banking system.
The authority granted by the Congress for the Federal Reserve to pay interest on reserve balances beginning in October 2008 will be especially important in the process of removing policy accommodation. Increasing the interest rate on reserves should put significant upward pressure on all short-term interest rates, as banks generally will not lend funds at rates significantly below what they can earn by holding reserves at the Federal Reserve Banks.
The Federal Reserve has been developing other new tools to drain large quantities of reserves, including reverse repurchase agreements (reverse repos) and term deposits. Reverse repos are transactions in which the Federal Reserve sells a security to a counterparty with an agreement to repurchase the security at some date in the future. The counterparty's payment to the Federal Reserve has the effect of draining reserves. As a second means of reducing reserves, the Federal Reserve has plans to offer term deposits to depository institutions. Funds in such term deposits would not be available to satisfy reserve requirements or clear payments and, as a result, would not count as reserve balances. Together, reverse repos and the term deposit facility would allow the Federal Reserve to drain substantial volumes of reserves from the banking system.
The tools available to the Federal Reserve will allow it to reduce policy accommodation when doing so becomes appropriate. In the long run, the Federal Reserve anticipates that the size of its balance sheet will return to more normal levels and that its security holdings will be predominantly Treasury securities.
At the June 21-22, 2011, meeting of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC), meeting participants discussed general strategies for normalizing the stance and conduct of monetary policy. This discussion was undertaken as part of prudent planning and did not imply that a move toward such normalization would necessarily begin sometime soon. At the conclusion, participants generally agreed on key elements of the strategy that they expect to follow when it becomes appropriate to begin normalizing the stance and conduct of monetary policy. At the June 18-19, 2013, FOMC meeting, meeting participants, in general, reiterated support for the broad normalization principles set out in June 2011. Nonetheless, they also agreed that the details of the eventual process would depend in part on economic and financial developments between now and the time when it becomes appropriate to begin normalizing monetary policy, and that the FOMC would need to provide additional information about its intentions as that time approaches.
At the April 29-30, 2014, meeting of the FOMC, meeting participants discussed issues associated with the eventual normalization of the stance and conduct of monetary policy. As before, the Committee's discussion of this topic was undertaken as part of prudent planning and did not imply that normalization would necessarily begin sometime soon; however, participants generally agreed that starting to consider the options for normalization at this meeting would help the Committee to make decisions about approaches to policy normalization and to communicate its plans to the public well before the first steps in normalizing policy become appropriate.

(Reuters) - Dutch financial services group ING Groep NV's
The IPO could raise as much as $1.54 billion. Pfizer Inc's
"The price is somewhat consistent with what the management has said before. Given the current environment, this might be a price that may be achievable," Morningstar analyst Vincent Lui said.
ING Group's ownership in ING U.S. will reduce to 75 percent after the IPO.
ING Groep is splitting its banking and insurance operations as part of a restructuring deal with the European Commission, turning into a smaller Europe-focused bank.
The group received a 10 billion euro ($12.71 billion) capital infusion from the Dutch Government in 2008 and has been selling assets to repay the bailout. It sold its U.S. online banking business ING Direct for nearly $9 billion to Capital One Financial Corp
ING U.S., which provides insurance, retirement and investment services, expects the IPO to sell 64.2 million shares of common stock, the company said in a regulatory filing on Tuesday. (http://r.reuters.com/nap47t)
"The company had a big loss in 2008 and is a type of company that potentially exposes investors to big risks," Jay Ritter, a University of Florida IPO expert, told Reuters.
"Based upon its earnings of $2.06 per share in 2012, the price range of $21-$24 is valuing at a conservative price earnings ratio of 11."
The IPO will consist of a primary component offered by ING U.S. and a secondary component offered by the parent, the company said in a statement. ING U.S.'s proceeds from the offering are intended to be about $600 million.
ING U.S. had $461 billion in total assets under management and assets under administration as of December 31. It reported net income of $473 million last year.
The IPO is scheduled to be priced on May 1 and shares will begin trading on May 2, according to a market source.
When it first filed to go public in November, the company said it intended to rebrand itself after listing and that it expected "substantial costs" in connection with the rebranding.
It announced last week that it expects to rebrand as Voya Financial following the offering.
However, the company does not expect to formally shift the majority of its advertising and marketing to the new brand name "until late 2014 at the earliest", Tuesday's filing said.
It also expects the rebranding to take about 24 months and cost $40 million to $50 million, excluding incremental advertising expenses.
The company has received approval to list its common stock on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "VOYA".
Morgan Stanley is the "lead-left" underwriter for the offering, with Goldman Sachs & Co and Citigroup among the lead bookrunners in a 24 bank syndicate.
ING Groep shares, which have lost close to a fourth of their value in the last three months, closed up 2 percent at 6.01 euros in Amsterdam earlier on Tuesday.

The Falcons filled out their practice squad by signing tight end Chase Coffman, safety Mark LeGree and linebacker Pat Schiller on Sunday.
Coffman, a former third round pick of the Cincinnati Bengals, spent part of training camp with the Falcons.
Schiller, who was signed as an undrafted rookie free agent from Northern Illinois, was in camp with the Falcons. He led the team with eight tackles against Jacksonville in the exhibition season finale.
LeGree was selected by Seattle in the fifth round of the 2011 draft. He has also spent time Chicago, Arizona, San Francisco and the New York Jets.
The Falcons added five players to the practice squad on Saturday.
Wide receiver Drew Davis, tackle Bryce Harris, wide receiver Marcus Jackson, cornerback Peyton Thompson, and defensive tackle Micanor Regis round out the practice squad. The Falcons left room to add three more players.
Wide receiver Drew Davis and offensive tackle Bryce Harris have cleared waivers and are expected to be signed and added to the Falcons practice squad later today. We'll update the file as hear the players and their representatives.
The Falcons are still evaluating wide receiver James Rodgers, linebackers Jerrell Harris and Rico Council.
Davis nearly earned a spot on the 53-man roster.
Behind Roddy White, Julio Jones and Harry Douglas, Davis was battling Kevin Cone, Tim Toone and Kerry Meier for the final spots. The team elected to carry five wide receivers.
Meier was waived/injured and Davis was placed on waivers.
Falcons coach Mike Smith praised Davis' game against the Ravens in the opener, both offensively and on special teams. Davis had a tackle and an assist on punt coverage, including a big hit along the Falcons sideline.
Smith said Cone had the upper hand coming into camp because he saw game action on special teams at the end of last season.
Harris is part of the new mold of athletic and bigger offensive linemen that the Falcons started signing this offseason. He is 6-6, 300 pounds and was selected to the All-WAC first team by the league coaches and named to Phil Steele's All-WAC first team after starting in all 13 games at left tackle as a senior at Fresno State.
After trimming the active roster down to 53, the Falcons could start adding players to the practice squad today at 12 noon.

Sweet, any idea where Franks might end up?
September 1st, 2012
1:37 pm
Not shocked Franks was released. To be honest neither Chris Owens or D. Franks have shown much improvement since being drafted.
I imagine we will be looking for corner help elsewhere as well as an additional receiver.
A couple of names that made the 53 man roster could be released later should better opitions come available from other teams scrap heaps.

Hopefully we can ditch Owens soon, too. Guy is near useless. I am SO ready for next Sunday. Hope our team is too–I just have to sit on the couch!
September 1st, 2012
4:05 pm
Franks has shown way more potential & improvement than Owens has!!! We made the wrog call on that one & we shouldn't have Douglas returning punts! He's fragile & that's to significant of an injury especially now that we cut Meier & let Weems go this offseason so we're unproven at our # 4 wr, so if Douglas goes down that's significant!
September 1st, 2012

I am wondering if Owens showed something in practice. The only thing I can think of is Owens may be better in Man Coverage vs Zone. We got burnt alot so I hope we have the best guys.

Pipedream I know, but I wish we could get Ovie back.
Also, Eric Bakhtiari, outside LB, got cut by the 49ers. He was solid in the preseason. Might look into him.

Is there not anyone out there to pick up to replace Owens? How do you like the idea of Owens (with or without bad hamstring) against Aaron Rogers in the playoffs again. Let's pick up some players to replace any 3rd stringers which proved not equal to other team 3rd stringers during pre-season games.
September 1st, 2012

I believe they kept Owens over franks bc Owens is more of a man player then a zone player and he fits better in mike nolans scheme

Favorite Shows
The Unsellables is back!
I love this show. Sofie and her team are so talented!
When is it on?
It's been on all morning today. I'm not sure if it is a one time marathon.
The shows this morning are old ones. I wonder if they are making new shows...anyone know
When I searched The Unsellables, I found it listed for another marathon of shows starting at 7:30am on October 18th. Don't know if they are old or new shows, but I will watch them.
Gotta luv the programing schedules. Probably 9am - 11am(central time) and then noon to maybe 5 is rollette everyday (M-F). And then it is a marathon of the same show. I kind of know the days of the week I might find some of the shows - IF they might be shown. Just thought I might check the program listing on the HGTV web site. Or maybe I will just continue to be surprised.
I believe they are reruns. New episodes are rare on this network.

The Port of Nagoya, located in Ise Bay, is the largest and busiest trading port in Japan, accounting for about 10% of the total trade value of Japan. Notably, this port is the largest exporter of cars in Japan and where the Toyota Motor Corporation exports most of its cars. It has piers in Nagoya, Tōkai, Aichi, Chita, Aichi, Yatomi, Aichi, and Tobishima, Aichi.
Notable sites:
The port draws tourists from the Chūkyō Metropolitan Area as one of its primary tourist attractions. The main attraction is the port's famous Port of Nagoya Public Aquarium. Nearby is also an amusement park and the now-retired Antarctic survey ship "Fuji" which moors at the Port of Nagoya as a museum of the South Pole and its journeys there. The Isewangan Expressway includes three impressive bridges, collectively known as the Meikō Triton, which span the port.

Have you ever wondered what people in a book club discuss? Some books lend themselves better for discussion than others but a good discussion can help the reader look at the book in a different light. For example, House of Sand and Fog is a page turner but difficult to read. One's emotions are on a roller coaster while reading it. I have not read the book in a discussion but would love to talk to people about the book and the motivations of the characters.

I have watched The Bachelor since the day Alex Michel had his first rose ceremony back in 2003. I was hooked. The show has lasted a decade with a formula that just works over and over and time and again. The fact is, people tune in to see the tears, the drama, and the hot people making out with each other.
But what is the special sauce that has made this show outlast all the other T&A ready dating shows it leaves in its wake? The answer is simple: the contestants.
Time and again, lovely people line up in open auditions and bare their souls, all for the chance to have some short-lived infamy on a show where they will likely be a laughingstock for all to see. Sounds appealing. Here are some of the qualities you must have in order to be considered for the show:

Oilers at Canucks G34 '10-'11 (plus G1 WJ's)
That's Bobby Schmautz with my haircut, maybe 1971. The Habs in photo are Rogatien Vachon and JC Tremblay. Within a few years Vachon would be a star on the coast, Schmautz had emerged as a 30-goal scorer and Tremblay was in the WHA. When this picture was taken it was Tremblay who would have been the most valued player, and depending upon the exact date it could have been one of Vachon's final Hab performances (he was dealt due to the emergence of Ken Dryden).
I hate to say this, but the Canucks are in a window of opportunity for the Stanley. The twin piss cutters have real help now, not just a wing and a prayer plus the D looks as tight as Watts-Wyman on some nights. Luongo is acting like Wayne Newton live from Vegas many nights (what IS he doing?) but one has to imagine Michelangelo will paint a masterpiece in the post-season.
The Vancouver Canucks may win the Stanley in the spring.
I'm really enjoying the Oilers right now. The rookie kids seem to have jumpstarted the older kids and the joint is rocking. I love the compete level of Taylor Hall, and married to what I hope we can agree is ridiculous talent this guy is going to force Pierre McGuire to come up with a new word for ka-bong. And Jordan Eberle is also an out of sight talent. Really, this is an amazing season to be an Oiler fan.
It's opening day of the World Juniors today. I don't follow NFL football that closely (the Eagles are my team because they came on tv when I was young and their quarterback was a guy named Roman Gabriel. What a great name for a quarterback) so this is a day devoted to hockey.
Christmas, and the world juniors with as much Spengler as I can get. If you're trying to shake off the tryptophan, this might help.

Bingham senior softball players Keagan Hanny, Jaden Mortensen, Whitney Littledike and Danielle Soffe have seen just about everything on the softball field: state titles, broken bats, shattered helmets, broken bones and a disappointing fifth-place finish after a 17-12 campaign in 2011.
As the four headed out for the first day of offseason conditioning, a course filled with giant tires and areas sequestered for four-person pushups and wall stands drew an immediate ripple of skepticism.
Miners prepared for season
A military-style strength and conditioning program has the Bingham softball team stronger than ever. The Miners flipped tires and did thousands of pushups during what coach Mikki Jackson calls an incredibly difficult offseason.
Jackson says shortstop Danielle Soffe is hitting the ball early and often this season.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
"At first the tires looked like they would be impossible to move," said infielder Soffe. "We were all kind of iffy about how this would help us."
After grinding out 5,000 pushups, agonizing for days in the wall-stand area and flipping the tires over and over again, the Bengals have seen promising results.
"We did this stuff for long periods and I think it really pushed the girls past their limits," said Coach Mikki Jackson. "We've seen a difference physically with hitting for power and it's given us a mental edge."
In addition to a stronger squad, opponents will be facing a senior class that wants the state championship trophy back at Bingham.
"I feel like [the state title has] been ours for the last three years and it just didn't feel right to give it back to someone else," said outfielder/catcher Mortensen.
Catcher Littledike, who blasted homers in consecutive wins over Skyline and Murray to open this season, said any lingering doubt from last year's disappointment is long gone.
"We had some people playing new positions last year, and just felt kind of iffy before every game," she said. "This year there are no questions, and I feel like our swagger is back."
Senior pitcher Hanny doesn't throw as hard as junior Paige Reimann, but Jackson thinks her off-speed pitches look better than ever.
"Both of them are a year older mentally, and they understand the game a little differently," said Jackson.
One common thread among the four Bingham seniors is their being brought into game situations early in their careers.
Mortensen started the majority of her freshman season, Littledike remembers an at-bat and playing right field for a game in the 2009 state tournament. Hanny and Soffe started playing more as their sophomore seasons progressed.
While Soffe is scooping up wicked line drives from the infield, Mortensen gunning down base runners with her rocket arm, Littledike directing traffic and belting homers and Hanny baffling batters with off-speed pitches, Jackson said she wants to break the ice for the younger players.
"Region was just so tight in 2010 and there just wasn't an opportunity to take chances," she said. "It's so crucial to break the ice in their first varsity action so they'll be more comfortable later."

Christopher R. W. Nevinson
|CRW Nevinson
After The Push (1917) (Art.IWM ART 519)
|13 August 1889
Hampstead, London
|7 October 1946
(aged 57)
Hampstead, London
|Alma mater
|Known for
Christopher Richard Wynne Nevinson (13 August 1889–7 October 1946) was a British figure and landscape painter, etcher and lithographer, who was one of the most famous war artists of World War I. He is often referred to by his initials C. R. W. Nevinson, and was also known as Richard.
Early life[edit]
Richard Nevinson was the son of the war correspondent and journalist Henry Nevinson and the suffrage campaigner and writer Margaret Nevinson. Educated at Uppingham School, which he hated, Nevinson went on to study at the St John's Wood School of Art. Inspired by seeing the work of Augustus John, he decided to attend the Slade School of Art, part of University College, London. There his contemporaries included Mark Gertler, Stanley Spencer, Paul Nash and Dora Carrington.[1] Gertler was, for a time, his closest friend and influence, and they formed for a short while a group known as the Neo-Primitives, being deeply influenced by the art of the early Renaissance. However, Gertler and Nevinson subsequently fell out when they both fell in love with Carrington. Whilst at the Slade, Nevinson was advised by the Professor of Drawing, Henry Tonks, to abandon thoughts of an artistic career. Nevinson's war memoir Paint and Prejudice (London, Methuen, 1937), although lively and colourful, is in parts inaccurate, inconsistent, and misleading.[2]
On leaving the Slade, Nevinson befriended Marinetti, the leader of the Italian Futurists, and the radical writer and artist Wyndham Lewis, who founded the short-lived Rebel Art Centre, whose members included Edward Wadsworth and Ezra Pound. However, Nevinson fell out with Lewis and the other 'rebel' artists when he attached their names to the Futurist movement. Lewis immediately founded the Vorticists, an avant garde group of artists and writers from which Nevinson was excluded (though he devised the title for the Vorticists' famous magazine, BLAST).
At the outbreak of World War I, Nevinson joined the Friends' Ambulance Unit, which his father had helped to found, and was deeply disturbed by his work tending wounded French soldiers. For a brief period he served as a volunteer ambulance driver (Nov 1914 to Jan 1915) before ill health forced his return to Britain. He used these experiences as the subject matter for a series of powerful paintings which used Futurist techniques to great effect. His fellow artist Walter Sickert wrote at the time that Nevinson's painting La Mitrailleuse, now in the Tate collection, 'will probably remain the most authoritative and concentrated utterance on the war in the history of painting.'[3]
Subsequently Nevinson volunteered for home service with the Royal Army Medical Corps, before being invalided out; he was eventually appointed as an official war artist, though his later paintings, based on a short visit to the Western Front, lacked the same powerful effect as those earlier works which had helped to make him one of the most famous young artists working in England. By 1917, Nevinson was no longer finding Modernist styles adequate for describing the horrors of modern war. Paths of Glory depicts two fallen British soldiers in a field of mud and barbed wire.[4]
Shortly after the end of the war, Nevinson travelled to the United States of America, where he painted a number of powerful images of New York. However, his boasting and exaggerated claims of his war experiences, together with his depressive and temperamental personality, made him many enemies in both the USA and Britain. Roger Fry of the Bloomsbury Group was a particularly virulent critic. In 1920, the critic Lewis Hind observed in his catalogue introduction to an exhibition of Nevinson's recent work: 'It is something, at the age of thirty one, to be among the most discussed, most successful, most promising, most admired and most hated British artists.'[1] His post-war career, however, was not so distinguished.
Nevinson was credited with holding the first cocktail party in Britain in 1924 by Alec Waugh.[5]

I just got this working, any improvements gratefully received.
(this is internal documentation but I thought I'd share
This howto was specifically written for a Zimbra installation but should work on any postfix server.
It is necessary for us to filter bad words from any email that has been sent internally or externally.
The plan is to use postfix after queue content filter to run a script that extracts email from the queue, process the email then injects it back into the queue for delivery. We will be using grep to check the email against a wordlist of regular expressions. We will avoid email loops by using putmail.py to re inject the email into the mail queue.
The following software was used:
Centos 4.3 http://centos.org
Zimbra 3.1.3 http://www.zimbra.com
putmail.py 1.3 http://putmail.sourceforge.net/home.html
A wordlist of regular expression to Ban
filter.sh – described below
Zimbra was installed into a default installation of Centos 4.3
A directory must be created to spool the mail to whilst it is being processed.
here we will make it in the zimbra directory, /var/spool/filter would be another sensible option.
We will make zimbra the owner of this directory and make sure it has read write execute access.
On a non zimbra install another non-root user should be created to run the script.
We will copy the putmail.py program to /usr/local/sbin and make sure the zimbra user can access it:Code:mkdir /opt/zimbra/postfix/spool/filter chown zimbra:zimbra /opt/zimbra/postfix/spool/filter chmod 700 /opt/zimbra/postfix/spool/filter
create the putmail configuration home directory:Code:cp putmail.py /usr/local/sbin chown zimbra /usr/local/sbin/putmail.py chmod 500 /usr/local/sbin/putmail.py
add the configuration file to this directory:Code:mkdir /opt/zimbra/.putmail chown zimbra:zimbra /opt/zimbra/.putmail
and make sure it contains the port number specified in the postfix master.cf file:Code:jmacs /opt/zimbra/.putmail/putmailrc
We need to configure putmail, and edit the putmail program to tell it where its configuration is located:Code:[config] server = localhost email = firstname.lastname@example.com port = 10026
make sure this line points to the configuration home directory:Code:emacs /usr/local/sbin/putmail.py
You now need to make a word list file containing the bad language, this is the most fun part of the entire exercise, I recommend doing this over a few beers.Code:HOME_DIR = '/opt/zimbra/'
Your wordlist should contain the prohibited words in the following format:
Call this file 'words' and place it into a configuration directoryCode:\<badword\> \<badword1\> \<badword1 \<badword2\> \<badword2
We now need to create and edit the script that ties it all together, probably you can copy it from here .This script was modified from the postfix website.Code:cp words /etc/
Check that INSPECT_DIR points to your filter directory, SENDMAIL points to your putmail.py program, BADWORDS points to the location of your words file and that MAILADMIN is set to the email address of the administrator.
Code:!/bin/sh # Simple shell-based filter. It is meant to be invoked as follows: # /path/to/script -f sender recipients... # Localize these. The -G option does nothing before Postfix 2.3. INSPECT_DIR=/opt/zimbra/postfix/spool/filter SENDMAIL=/usr/local/sbin/putmail.py firstname.lastname@example.com BADWORDS=/etc/words # Exit codes from <sysexits.h> EX_TEMPFAIL=75 EX_UNAVAILABLE=69 # Clean up when done or when aborting. trap "rm -f in.$$" 0 1 2 3 15 #Start processing. cd $INSPECT_DIR || { echo $INSPECT_DIR does not exist; exit $EX_TEMPFAIL; } cat >in.$$ || { echo Cannot save mail to file; exit $EX_TEMPFAIL; } # Specify your content filter here. cat in.$$ | while read line; do echo $line|grep -v 'Content-Disposition: attachment;' || break; done | /bin/grep -if /etc/words && { echo ": The message content has been rejected, your actions have been reported" ; $SENDMAIL $MAILADMIN <in.$$ ; exit $EX_UNAVAILABLE; } $SENDMAIL "$@" <in.$$ exit $?
Now we need to adapt the postfix master.cf file to use the ammendments that we have just made.
On a default zimbra install it lives in /opt/zimbra/postfix/conf/master.cf
Backup the original master.cf file then edit it.
add this line (to the bit after maildrop, although I'm not sure if its position in the config makes any difference)Code:cd /opt/zimbra/postfix/conf cp master.cf master.cf.orig emacs master.cf
zimbraCode:filter unix - n n - - pipe flags=Rq user=zimbra argv=/usr/local/sbin/filter -f ${sender} -- ${recipient}
Navigate to this line and add the content filter named filter to the option -o content_filter=
Then add the following to the end of the file:Code:127.0.0.1:10025 inet n - n - - smtpd -o content_filter=filter:dummy
Restart Zimbra (or postfix)Code:127.0.0.1:10026 inet n - n - - smtpd -o content_filter= -o smtpd_authorized_xforward_hosts=127.0.0.0/8 -o local_recipient_maps= -o virtual_mailbox_maps= -o virtual_alias_maps= -o relay_recipient_maps= -o smtpd_restriction_classes= -o smtpd_delay_reject=no -o smtpd_client_restrictions=permit_mynetworks,reject -o smtpd_helo_restrictions= -o smtpd_sender_restrictions= -o smtpd_recipient_restrictions=permit_mynetworks,reject -o mynetworks_style=host -o mynetworks=127.0.0.0/8 -o strict_rfc821_envelopes=yes -o smtpd_error_sleep_time=0 -o smtpd_soft_error_limit=1001 -o smtpd_hard_error_limit=1000 -o smtpd_client_connection_count_limit=0 -o smtpd_client_connection_rate_limit=0 -o receive_override_options=no_header_body_checks,no_unknown_recipient_checks,no_address_mappings
job done.Code:su – zimbra zmcontrol stop zmcontrol start

Cool, maybe this should go in a wiki somewhere, I think there is one on this site, or maybe send it to the zimbra project or tldp.org.
I know this is an ancient thread; but I've tried this on our Zimbra test server and come across a little problem. On messages with attachments, the filter regularly picks up bad words in the Base64-encoded attachment section of the email.
Is there any way to prevent this that you are aware of?
@ webman, yes one of our yr 11's came up with this:
It reads after the 'content-disposition' line that zimbra puts for an attachment.Code:cat in.$$ | while read line; do echo $line|grep -v 'Content-Disposition: attachment;' || break; done | /bin/grep -if /etc/words && { echo ": The message content has been rejected, your actions have been reported" ; $SENDMAIL $MAILADMIN <in.$$ ; exit $EX_UNAVAILABLE; }
I'll put this on the wiki now
webman (15th February 2008)
I put this on the wiki, so if anyone wants to improve this method go ahead..
Ah, excellent! Thanks CyberNerd and the Year11... will have another go
Excellent Doc Cybernerd.
Once I get my admin server moved across to the new box I will be installing Zimbra for students use onto the old admin server.
From what I have seen it looks a good product.

The Patriot Aero is a fast and competent mobile drive that unfortunately doesn't have enough new features to make it stand out.
The Sony Ericsson S500i is a stylish phone with a lot of sex appeal plus a decent feature set, but its high price and iffy controls make it less than desirable.
The Roxy Reference 250 earphones offer great value for the money: they are stylish, work with music phones, and include a cute case that does double duty for your MP3 player.
The Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX500 is a very good ultracompact camera with a lot of shooting flexibility. It's just its slow performance that's keeping it from achieving excellence.
The VivoBook S500CA offers a big-screened touch-screen Windows 8 laptop for a bargain price -- and without many extras.
Fast and affordable, the shockproof Silicon Power Armor A15 is an excellent buy for mobile users, especially those working in rough environments.
The Roxy Reference 430 headphones feature a vivid design that should appeal to any ladies fond of Roxy's fashions, but comfort and construction may cause some issues. If possible, try before you buy.

The Silicon Power Armor A80 makes an excellent portable drive for travelers and home offices alike.
The Hitachi SimpleTough is by far the most indestructible external hard drive we've tested, capable of surviving drops of up to 10 feet and up to one ton of pressure. With a built-in USB cable, two-tiered data security package, and an impressive three-year warranty, we have no issue recommending this external hard drive to shoppers looking for space and security.
Its surprising design is the best thing about the Nokia Asha 503, but if you're looking for a traditional smartphone experience, its underperformance will only disappoint..

Leader: Shortage of water hitting crisis point
Farmers already know about the creeping crisis that is stealthily engulfing Britain. Now the rest of us are beginning to wake up to it.
Farmers already know about the creeping crisis that is stealthily engulfing Britain.
Now the rest of us are beginning to wake up to it.
The recent warm, sunny spell has been very pleasant. It is part of a trend which has seen meagre rainfall, much less than would normally be expected. According to the Environment Agency, Shropshire's rivers have half as much water flowing through them as in the great drought of 1976.
Flows in the River Severn are the second lowest on record for this time of year.
Look at Shropshire's rivers and you can see the problem for yourself. The pleasure cruises by the Ironbridge river boat are in danger because of the risk of running aground. The retreating rivers are affecting fish stocks. It is a vicious cycle, because parched land means more demands on river water to compensate for the lack of rain.
It is going to take a prolonged wet spell to get things back to what counts for normal. It is not, though, just a matter of the weather. Shropshire's rivers, big and small, are being tapped into as water resources on a large scale. Some are a shadow of their former glory because of the level of water abstraction which has helped turn small rivers into mere brooks and streams.
Throw a warm, dry spell into the equation, and this summer we shall see plenty of them reduced to a trickle, with dramatic losses of aquatic life and knock-on effects through nature's fragile food chain.
The Environment Agency is planning to release groundwater and reservoir water into the Severn to increase flows.
Britain's traditional self-image as a rainswept country has meant that Britons have mocked the idea of water shortage. But if we can no longer rely on rain, and must learn to manage water like any other precious resource.

SanDisk (SNDK) Shares Rise Following Earnings Report
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- SanDisk (SNDK) rose 1.1% to $72.95 in extended trading Wednesday after announcing fourth-quarter profit and revenue that exceeded expectations.
The chipmaker posted revenue of $1.73 billion for the quarter, up 12% from the year-ago quarter. Thomson Reuters estimates expected revenue of $1.703 billion for the quarter.
SanDisk posted net income of $338 million, or $1.45 a share, up from $214 million, or 87 cents a share, a year earlier. Excluding one-time items, earnings rose to $1.71 a share from $1.05 a year ago. That's better than analyst estimates of $1.58 a share.
In a press release SanDisk president and CEO Sanjay Mehrotra said "Our SSD product revenue set another quarterly record and represented 19 percent of our annual revenue, and we also set a record for annual retail product revenue."TheStreet Ratings team rates SANDISK CORP as a Buy with a ratings score of A. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation: "We rate SANDISK CORP (SNDK) a BUY. This is based on the convergence of positive investment measures, which should help this stock outperform the majority of stocks that we rate. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its robust revenue growth, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, compelling growth in net income, good cash flow from operations and expanding profit margins. Although the company may harbor some minor weaknesses, we feel they are unlikely to have a significant impact on results." Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows:
- The revenue growth came in higher than the industry average of 2.8%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues rose by 27.6%. Growth in the company's revenue appears to have helped boost the earnings per share.
- Although SNDK's debt-to-equity ratio of 0.12 is very low, it is currently higher than that of the industry average. To add to this, SNDK has a quick ratio of 2.49, which demonstrates the ability of the company to cover short-term liquidity needs.
- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has significantly exceeded that of the S&P 500 and the Computers & Peripherals industry. The net income increased by 261.9% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, rising from $76.51 million to $276.86 million.
- Net operating cash flow has significantly increased by 198.90% to $382.41 million when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, SANDISK CORP has also vastly surpassed the industry average cash flow growth rate of 6.77%.
- The gross profit margin for SANDISK CORP is rather high; currently it is at 53.53%. It has increased significantly from the same period last year. Regardless of the strong results of the gross profit margin, the net profit margin of 17.03% trails the industry average.

# MANIFESTO /// Nic Clear
Nic Clear (picture extracted from Unit 15's work by Ben Marzy)
1. The Architecture Of The Near Future will not be what you think it is going to be; it certainly wont be the big bright shiny world depicted in the pages of the architectural press and fostered by the architectural profession. The architecture of 'bigness' offers nothing but a vacuous future of shopping malls, cappuccino's and antidepressants.
2. The Architecture Of The Near Future is not the architecture of the architectural establishment, which has proved itself to be intellectually and philosophically bankrupt, the corporate architectural complex does not produce a vision of the future only images of the future.
3. The Architecture Of The Near Future needs to re-capture the speculative and the imaginative aspirations of earlier utopian movements without becoming mired in the internecine squabbling and neurotic formalism that plagued such tendencies.
4. The Architecture Of The Near Future, if it is to survive as a discourse and not just as a job, must embrace new ideas, new modes of practice and new forms of communication.
5. The Architecture Of The Near Future will be open and inclusive, the top down approach to architecture is already on the decline, architects must become enablers rather than iconoclasts, the heroic concept of the architect is a romantic fiction and largely a hangover from a late C18th conception of the 'gentleman' architect.
6. The Architecture Of The Near Future will be fun, play should be at the heart of the creative processes that inspire all architecture, we have reached a point where we understand the typological and programmatic issues that underpin the banalities of production, however we have lost a sense of purpose and joy that should be at the heart of every project.
7. The Architecture Of The Near Future needs to engage with a new set of values and develop new goals, the architecture of late capitalism predicated on consumerism and the false ideology of growth has to be abandoned; greed and conspicuous consumption are the false idols of a redundant epistemology.
8. The Architecture Of The Near Future will not see technology as an end in itself but will embrace technology in surprising and original ways, the very foundations of how we think about technology need to be reconceptualised.
9. The Architecture Of The Near Future will not be predicated on the technology of the visible, but rather technology as an extension of the visceral. The idea of technology as 'other' has ceased to be viable; we are intimately connected with it and by it, we are technology.
10. The Architecture Of The Near Future will be a social discourse and as such it has to adopt social forms of communication; architecture is trapped by the conventions of its representations, which are insular and hermetic, we need to question the efficacy of our current forms of representation and adopt tactics derived from other disciplines.
11. The Architecture of the Near Future will utilise design skills developed by the current generation of young architects that allow migration across a range of different disciplines, young designers are no longer defined by the names of their courses or their jobs but by the software they inhabit.
12. The Architecture Of The Near Future will utilise open source methods and protocols, ideas and techniques will be collectively developed and disseminated, mutual co-operation is becoming the norm in the development of software and in on-line communities, if we can operate in this way in virtual environments we must be able to apply these ideas into our actual worlds.
13. The Architecture Of The Near Future will embrace the abstract and the speculative; it will not be constrained by client, cost or patronage but only by the limits of the imagination.
14. The Architecture Of The Near Future will not be a thing it will be many wondrous and complex things, it will be inclusive and non-hierarchical, it will be about creating narratives that celebrate diversity and differance.
15. The Architecture Of The Near Future will be a hybrid, it will use ideas of collage, montage and bricollage, it will be an architecture of copy and paste, the architecture of purism and the mono-culture is already dead.
16. The Architecture Of The Near Future will embrace DIY and the role of the amateur, professionalism masks a discourse of vested self-interest and the perpetuation of a set of false values.
17. The Architecture Of The Near Future will not be an exercise in shape making, whether we are talking about blobs or cubes we need to move on from reductive formalist concepts, shapism is the art of the banal and we need to look beyond the banal and toward the extraordinary.
18. The Architecture Of The Near Future will not be simply about buildings, architecture has always been about more than buildings anyway, the first question an architect must always ask 'is a building even necessary?'
19. The Architecture Of The Near Future will redefine aesthetics and good taste; the hegemony of morality, hygiene and functionality will be re-imagined as a playful intersection of the impossible, the improbable and the dirty.
20. The Architecture Of The Near Future will not be about the plan, the section and the elevation, the new architectures will be generated, developed, represented and experienced through time based means.
21. The Architecture Of The Near Future is already with us, though many people do not yet realise this. The ground has already shifted, the certainties that were once taken for granted have, to use Marx's phrase, melted into air, we have entered a state of global flux, however it will take some time for the world we think we are living in, to be the same as the world we are actually living in.
