Western Michigan University has developed partnerships with schools and school districts as part of the design of their teacher education program in the College of Education and Human Development. The partnerships are defined at the 44 individual schools in 9 districts that participate in the Cluster Site program. The goal in each Cluster Site is for Interns (student teachers) to use reflective processes as they interact with Mentors (cooperating teachers) and University Coordinators (student teacher supervisors) in order to create conditions in which responsible and deliberate teaching/learning can occur for all participants.
A Cluster Site is a school serving diverse student populations in which a group of Interns - typically numbering 8 to 12 - is placed to participate full time in studying, practicing and reflecting about teaching under the guidance of Mentor teachers. The Cluster Site provides a setting for the Intern to experience the diversity and challenges faced by the professional teacher today. Stakeholders in the school district (school board members, administrators, professional and support staffs, students, parents and community members) are partners with the University and are encouraged to participate in their district's collaboration with the College of Education.
There are many benefits to the program for both the University and the Cluster Sites. Partnerships naturally open doors for collaboration among personnel in the schools and at the University and for the sharing of knowledge about research, curriculum and practice. University and public school personnel contribute to university and district program development and implementation. Opportunities exist to develop collegial relationships with school and University personnel and to collaborate on school and teacher education restructuring. District and University personnel also have opportunities to co-teach courses, present at conferences and write articles for professional publication.
During the course of the internship, the Mentor and Intern become a team that co-teaches in the classroom. The co-teaching process evolves over time. At the start of the internship, the Mentor takes the lead in providing the major planning design and materials, guiding the Intern to understand why that particular design and those particular materials are appropriate for the students who are in their classroom. Together they co-teach on a daily basis.
As the Intern becomes acclimated to the individual students in the classroom, the daily classroom routines and procedures and the culture of the Cluster Site, s/he takes on more and more responsibility for designing and selecting materials for the co-teaching. This process necessitates that the Mentor and Intern plan and reflect together on a regular basis. They become a team of teachers discovering best practices for the effective learning that all students are expected to achieve.
By the end of the internship, the Intern demonstrates the ability to be the primary guide of the planning design and materials selection. Throughout the process, the Intern demonstrates the progressive ability to integrate designing, communicating, monitoring and reflecting as part of the teaching/learning process.
A group of pre-interns took part in a project called Tech Corps Michigan. It's effort focused on assisting schools in achieving their information technology goals through services provided by volunteers. It provided an organizational structure that played an important role in expanding the numbers of volunteers who assisted in the deployment and use of information technology in our schools. Currently WMU has pre-Interns at Portage Central Elementary School who are volunteering their time to help put technology into place. The principal, Ginny Hartline, is "very pleased with everyone's involvement in getting some technology" into her school and looks "forward to this project really getting started and growing over the next few months."
The goal of teacher education is to improve student learning at every level. Therefore, in addition to the Cluster Sites we have developed with the public schools, we have a Laptop/Mentor Project in partnership with Kalamazoo Public Schools. Launched in the fall of 1998, the project combines modern laptop computing technology and old-fashioned personal mentoring to help KPS beginning teachers successfully launch their careers. A small group of first-year KPS teachers are the first to benefit from this education initiative, designed to help beginning teachers make the transition from student to teacher.
Extending the Cluster Site partnerships that WMU has already developed with KPS, the University wants to continue to provide the kind of support given to Interns to enable new teachers to continue to become the best educators for our children. The University has provided each new teacher in the project with a College of Education and Education faculty mentor as well as a laptop computer and access to the University's computing resources. The teachers have regular one-on-one meetings with their mentors and are able to communicate with their mentors and other new teachers via email and on-line discussion groups. They are able to use their University computing account to access the World Wide Web for research and additional support.
The University's faculty and pre-service programs also benefit from the program because of ongoing interaction with new teachers who are facing the challenge of applying their University education when they take the helm in a classroom. This initiative helps to extend support into the first few years of teaching and to support the idea that teacher education is a lifelong process.

I saw these lights in a high end lighting store in Shreveport but they were priced ridiculously! I got on O.co and found them for lots of $$ cheaper and I am absolutely 100% satisfied!! I have purchased ALL of my lights from O.co!
This fixture has the look of a high end fixture at a fraction of the cost. They look great in our remodeled bath. Thanks Bib O
I love it -- however, my vanity mirror is 67" wide, consequently I need a larger or wider light fixture,, I ordered the wrong size & need to get a wider one. Just don't know how to handle this. A 48 " would be more appropriate. But I do recommend this particular light - it's beautiful.

Wow, I know this post is really weak, but they're QUOTES! Enjoy! (:
I've learned that no matter how much I care, people are jerks. I've learned that it takes years to build up trust, and it only takes suspicion- not proof- to destroy it. I've learned that you shouldn't compare yourselves to others; they're more screwed up than you think. I've learned that the people you care the most about in life are taken from you too soon and all the less important ones never go away.
Take chances. Tell the truth. Date somebody totally wrong for you. Say no. Spend all your cash. Fall in love. Get to know someone random. Be random. Say "I love you." Sing out loud. Laugh at a stupid joke. Cry. Get revenge. Apologize. Tell someone how much they mean to you. Tell the jerk how you feel. Let someone know what they're missing. Laugh until your stomach hurts. Life your life. <3
Don't let the past and useless details choke your existence.
Would I rather be feared or loved? Easy: both. I want people afraid of how much they love me.
You're going to come across people in your life that will say all the right words at all the right times. But in the end, it's their actions that you should judge them by. It's actions that matter. Not words.
That's the problem with us. We're both stubborn asses and always want to get our way. We both hate the be wrong and we love to be right. But that's the thing about love. No matter what happens, we always come back for each other, one more time.
-The Notebook
I won't ask for you to promise me forever. I won't ask you to treat me as if I'm a princess, but I'll ask you to promise me that you'd remember me forever, that I'll be somewhere in your heart no matter how long time goes by, that even if you moved on, we won't be strangers.That you'd give us another chance. If that day you have no one, I won't be waiting for you.
People break promises they make, But maybe one day, out of luck, one person out of the six billion would keep his promise, the promise that you were reluctant of believing, of setting your heart on it. But one day, you might find yourself in a white dress, besides you is that one person in his tux. Before you know it, you are saying "Always & Forever, I do."
Fall in love with someone that deserves your heart; not someone who plays with it.
You can close your eyes to the things you don't want to see, but you can't close your heart to the things you don't want to feel.
Be careful in letting go of the things you thought are nothing. Because maybe someday, you'll realize that the one you gave away, was the very thing you were wishing for to stay.
Fall in love, stay in love. It'll decide everything. What you are in love with, what seizes your imagination, it will affect everything. It'll decide when you will get out of bed in the morning, what you will do with your evenings, how you will spend your weekends, what you read, what you know, what breaks your heart, and what amazes you with joy and gratitude.
Fixing someone's broken heart is much more like treating a sickness. No matter how hard you try, if you're not the medicine, you can never cure the pain.
There is no fear in love; perfect love casts away fear…. 1 John 4:18
I'm ready to go, move on, and be happy, but there's this little shred of "maybe he'll turn around and tell me he wants me tomorrow."
Somewhere, there's someone that dreams of your smile & finds in your presence that life is worthwhile. So when you are lonely, remember that it's true. Somebody, somewhere is thinking about you.
Don't base your decisions on your the advice of the people who don't have to deal with the results.
You can spend minutes, hours, days, weeks or even months over-analyzing a situation; just trying to put all of the pieces together. Justifying what could've, would've happened…or you can just leave the pieces on the floor and move on.
There's a point in life when you get tired of chasing everyone and trying to fix everything, but it's not giving up. It's realizing that you don't need certain people and their crap.
Life is a roller coaster. You can either scream every time you hit a bump or you can throw your hands up in the air and enjoy it.

Al Goldstein, the famed pornographer who championed First Amendment rights, has died after a long battle with illness.
According to a friend, Goldstein, who was 77, died early Thursday morning at a hospice in Brooklyn.
Goldstein founded Screw magazine in 1968, a time when the legal system was trying to decide what constituted obscenity.
He would be arrested on obscenity charges 19 times over the next three years.
Over the years, he spent millions of dollars to fight for First Amendment rights.
Goldstein was also behind the adult-themed public access show "Midnight Blue."
Screw folded in 2003, and in a 2004 interview with the New York Times, Goldstein said that at times, he was forced to sleep in his car and live in a homeless shelter.
He is survived by his wife, Christine, and a son, Jordan.

Plays with my eyes like one of those optical illusions. I see hills and then get a headache. Kinda neat tho.
Personally? I liked the first version better.
I have to agree with Diamond here, The first version looks better :) I don't like that on the second version, the woodcut effect is on everywhere on the water.
While I think the changes give it more of a wood grain appearance, after about 5 seconds it started to bother my eyes to look at it.
I like the straighter "cuts" on the second version but the cloud or noise wipeout of the lines in the deeper sea are gone. If you could bring that back like in the first one I think it would look great.
The dizzy effect when you look at the zoomed-out image is a moire pattern and won't show if it get's printed. It is an artifact of zooming on the computer screen. And I think it will go away if you white out the deep sea with fuzz.
Nifty work, can't wait to see the continent interior.
Happy medium?
I think this is it for the water effect, or I could be at it forever ;)
-Rob A>
Looks pretty great. You'll have to reveal yoru secrets (yet again).
I would think, to get a slightly dirtier and more authentic appearance (ala the Durer reference), you could do a very slight pixel noise/spread thing to push some of those pixels around, and possibly a very tiny, almost imperceptible blur?
I think that is much better, definitely easier on my eyes. :)
Both of those (first and last) look good to me. I'd suggest tackling the interior of the island before getting too precise with the water, as the balance of tones between them will be important and that's going to affect your choices on the water I guess. Looks great to me so far.

Congratulations to 1956 Oyster Bay High School graduate Abe Bernstein who traveled to Toronto on July 17 and 18 to participate in the 2010 Canadian Masters Track & Field Championship Meet – and came home with plenty of gold!
Oyster Bay's 32-year old speedster Gregory Tchabovsky earned first place honors in the 30-34 age group in the Aug. 14 Sands Point Sprint for the Feinstein Institute. Tchabovsky's winning time for the 5 Kilometer distance was 21 minutes flat.
Bay Day lived up to expectations as the WaterFront Center got people in boats, and out on the water on Sunday, June 6. There were free kayak rides available – with the boats lined up along Beekman Beach. There were Sonar rides for four – you had to sign up and get a special ticket – free again. By the Jakobson Pier, a tent was set up to handle the oyster sloop Christeen rides. It takes 25 people, a captain and a crew of two volunteers for the Christeen to set out to sea.
Congratulations to the 2013 Rough Rider Lacrosse Summer Tournament team which went 16 – 9 this year. With a trip to the semifinals in both the Long Island Lax Fest and the Chocolatetown Shoot Out as well as a trip to the finals at the Tomahawk Tournament the boys look forward to the start of the Fall tournament season.
All participants in the 2010 Runner's Edge TOBAY Triathlon and their families and friends have been invited to join the members of the North Shore Assembly of God on Saturday, August 28, for a special prayer service for "safety and blessing." The service starts at 1 p.m. and will be entirely interfaith and ecumenical, so no one of any faith should feel uncomfortable in attending.
Oyster Bay hamlet and surrounding areas will once again be hosting the Runner's Edge - Town of Oyster Bay Triathlon, Long Island's largest triathlon, and perhaps the most athlete friendly—multi-sport event in the country. Fifteen hundred athletes representing twelve States participated in the 2009 edition of the Tri, and an equally big turnout is expected for 2010.
After defeating East Rockaway, two games to one in the best of three County Championship series, Friends Academy's baseball team advanced to the regional semi-finals and Long Island Class C Championship game on June 6 at Farmingdale State College. The Friends Quakers faced the high scoring Suffolk Class C Champions, Bishop McGann-Mercy Monarchs with Junior Sam Harrington of Locust Valley on the mound.
Congratulations to 46-year old Tracy Kemper of Oyster Bay who scored as the first woman overall in the 7th annual Heart & Sole 5 Kilometer Run held on the roads of Plainview on Sunday morning, July 11. Ms. Kemper crossed the finish line in 19 minutes, 45 seconds, getting her to the finish line at the Plainview-Old Bethpage Middle School 24 seconds in front of runner-up Jessica Petrina of Plainview.
The Red Sox capped off a tremendous first place finish for the 2010 OBB Season with a great Championship Game – beating the White Sox 2-1. The game was very close from the first pitch to the last out. Both teams played very well. It was a memorable moment since it was the end of our first season and the first Championship Game in our brand new ballpark at Marino Park. The Red Sox beat the Indians 11-4 and the Athletics 7-1 in route to the Championship Game.

Nexus 4 (E960) 12 12
Build quality not all there- disappoints. I was reasonably happy with this phone, despite having some troubles with battery life and overheating. However, like many others who have owned this phone- One little drop and its now useless. The screen not only cracks easily, the whole phone becomes unusable due to a damaged digitizer. So much for 'Gorilla Glass'. The cost of fixing the phone is almost half the price of the phone new. Much more expensive than similar repairs for other phones on the market. Makes it redundant. 17 December 2013
Great product but wont connect to my computer My problem is that the phone won't connect to my computer? appears that there is no software? I can't even down load my photo's? What can I do? 17 December 2013
dont drop it I had my nexus 3 days i was kneeling down and bent over and phone fell out my pocket just over a foot and cracked the digitizer. Totally unresponsive to touch. Very flimsy glass be carefull. Phone is super fast though and great specs for the price just make sure you put a cover on it or face $165 for repairs. 18 June 2013
an excellent phone This is easily the best smart phone that I have ever used. It is very quick, no noticeable lag. It has a powerful processor and it has never frozen on me. Battery life can be a problem, but I don't let this detract from my enjoyment of this product. 29 May 2013
Very fragile I really enjoyed using this phone for a couple of months. Yesterday I dropped it onto a carpet covered floor, and the screen cracked. The digitizer stopped working as well. I was shocked at how easily the screen broke. I have never had this problem with any other phone. Manufactures should understand that people occasionally drop their phones, and they should design their products to withstand it. 22 May 2013

"The insomnia I am talking about results from a mild state of possession, harmless to those around you, who sometimes even fail to notice it. It usually comes when you are completely engrossed in your work and overtakes you so completely that every aspect of your daily life becomes mechanical and provides only a colorless backdrop to action occurring only in your mind. It matters not whether at this time you are asleep or awake. The secret life pulses within you, and when you wake in the middle of the night you realize there is no way to stem its flow."
"There's no question about it. The arts are an extremely high-risk situation. People are willing to take these extraordinary chances to become writers, musicians or painters, and because of them we have a culture. If this ever stops, our culture will die, because most of our culture, in fact, has been created by people that got paid nothing for it— People like Edgar Allan Poe, Vincent van Gogh or Mozart. So, yes, it's a very foolish thing to do, notoriously foolish, but it seems human to attempt it anyway."
— Kurt Vonnegut
"After I finished The Book of Daniel, I was profoundly, emotionally exhausted. But I didn't know it. I sat around for a year trying to write. I wrote endless pages that didn't take me anywhere. I got so desperate that I started to write about the wall that I face when I write. As it happened, that was the wall in my study in New Rochelle, New York. That house was built in 1906. So I started to think about that house and that street and what it must have looked like in 1906. Out of that emerged Ragtime."
— E.L. Doctrorow
"What I've learned is that the muses' decision to sing or not to sing is not based on the elevation of your moral purpose— they will sing or not, regardless."
— John Barth, author
"I think that any achievement, and especially artistic achievement, is born partly out of the illusion that what you have to do is important and that you can do it. And one of the powers of youth might be the power of conjuring up this illusion. Once you start to doubt whether something is worth doing, there's a terrible tendency not to do it."
— John Updike
"Why do you scratch when it itches? it's a compulsion. It's an irritation. I know a thousand stories, everybody knows a thousand stories. But only one cockleburr catches your furr and that subject is your question. You may not even know what that question is. It hangs around for a long time. I've carried a novel as long as 20 years."
— Robert Penn Warren
"When (writing) a book is done, you hold it in your hand and say, 'There's a piece of me,' and that's great. It just might be the best piece of me."
— Elia Kazan, motion picture director, author
"Every fragile beauty, every perfect forgotten sentence,
you grieve their going away, but that is not how it is.
Where they come from never goes dry.
It is an always flowing spring."
you grieve their going away, but that is not how it is.
Where they come from never goes dry.
It is an always flowing spring."
— Rumi
"All real art is, in its true sense, is a religious impulse; there is no such thing as a non-religious subject. But much bad or downright sacrilegious art depicts so-called religious subjects…Conversely, much great religious art has been written or painted or composed by people who thought they were atheists."
— Madeleine L'Engle, A Circle of Quiet
"The easiest thing about writing, and the most overrated thing, is coming up with an idea. That is the problem that I have with a lot of the "creativity" books for budding writers. So many of them imply that being imaginative is the most important part of being a writer. Everyone is imaginative. A professional writer is someone who puts in the work to take those journal scrawlings and make them into a novel that someone might want to read. This is not to say that I think everyone who writes should aspire to being a professional writer. People can get a lot of benefit from participating in arts, not just buying them from other people. I do get tired, though, with the idea that artists just dream things up. An artist does the work. That is the "creation" part of "creativity.""

I am having an issue with AutoCAD 12 that i haven't had in any other version. I have a brand new computer with Windows 7, Revit 12 and AutoCAD 12 have just been installed (no other versions are currently installed on my computer). When I'm working in a drawing, every 5-10 minutes it just stops working and i get the "thinking" mouse curser. It lasts for a good 10 seconds or so and if i click my screen within that 10 seconds, i get a 'not responding' at the top of the screen. I know its not my auto save because to test it i turned it off completely. Please help. Its quite annoying.
Many threads on this. Here's one of them:
Thank you. i made the modifications and hopefully this will fix the issue.
I made these changes and i still have the problem.
Just to follow up here. I hesitate to fault AutoCAD for this. I just had the same thing happen using Excel. Windows7???
as it turns out, it was a problem with an xref in my drawing. as a result, the drawing isnt freezing anymore but i still dont know what the problem is with the xref.
>> it was a problem with an xref in my drawing. as a result, [...]
>> i still dont know what the problem is with the xref
Have you tried to open the drawing with _RECOVERALL? That evaluates the database within the drawings and do repair if necessary, also on XRef's
Are your XRef's saved in DWG2010 format?
Does your XRef's contain a lot of annotation-scales or have you cleaned them?
- alfred -
It could be that Autocad is trying to communicate with the exchange server.
See if turning of "check for live enablers" in the options/ system tab will solve the problem.
Let me chime in once again about he "not responding" issue. It happens frequently here at work(Dell Precision 3400, 64 bit, AutoCad 2010, Windows 7 Pro, 8Gb ram, Nvidia GeForce 9400, Office 2007. Happens frequently in AutoCAD but rarley in Word or Excel. At home, Dell T1600, 64bit, 8Gb ram, AutoCAD 2012, Windows 7, Nvidia Quatro 2000, Office 2010. Happens frequently in AutoCAD, Word and Excel. A solution would be nice. Any Microsoft folks listening???

Spin bonnet and steam cleaning are out and Oxi Fresh is in! Oxi Fresh's Oaks carpet cleaning location produces a true deep cleaning, as opposed to the top surface cleaning experienced with the spin bonnet method which actually pushes dirt and oily grime deeper into the carpet pile. Steam cleaning relies on saturating your carpet with water and chemicals and can take 24 hours or longer to dry! This amount of saturation leaves your carpet pad vulnerable to mildew developing and stains often reappear. More customers choose Oxi Fresh Carpet Cleaning® for our pile lifting technology which effectively emulsifies and removes the oils and dirt from the bottom of your carpet pile. We do all this while using very little water, leaving your carpets dry in approximately 60 minutes.
Whether you need one or ten rooms cleaned, Oxi Fresh's biodegradable, organic Oaks carpet cleaning services can get the job done! Scheduling a cleaning couldn't be easier – just call your local Oxi Fresh of Oaks KY carpet cleaning franchise today for a free estimate over the phone.

I was walking down the street in a pair of purple booty shorts that say happy birthday on the back, and a purple hoodie, and a samich in my hand, singing a song I was making up (quite loud) about how book reports and school in general sucks my left nut. I looked up and the mom was staring at me, I stopped singing and walking, and we stared at each other clearly making eye contact for a few seconds. I was going to say hi but that would have been more awkward so I just kept walking and began to hum the same tune. I wonder if there nice people and have kids.

"The wind of change is blowing through this continent, and whether we like it or not, this growth of national consciousness is a political fact." British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan from his speech to the South African Parliament in 1960
That excerpt might not totally apply to the recent happenings of the Indianapolis Colts, but the actions stated from a part of that speech do.
In the last 10-12 years the news and changes from the Colts has only been dished out in limited portions. In the past two weeks the information and actions from the Colts complex has come out in buckets.
Owner Jim Irsay said change is hard but exciting times will be ahead. But somehow the events of Tuesday continued to remind us that the excitement isn't here yet. On Tuesday Jim Caldwell was relieved of his duties as head coach of the Colts after a seven hour meeting with new Colts GM Ryan Grigson who went on to say the decision to let Caldwell go was also based on his intuition. Got to hope that is better than a crystal ball.
Maybe there will be better days ahead, but the last two to three weeks really show the business side of the NFL can be quite nasty. There are no friends when there is no winning. Just ask Bill and Chris Polian and now Jim Caldwell. Just a couple of years ago everything was great when the Colts were returning to the Super Bowl for their second time. Peyton Manning was healthy, Caldwell was sustaining a team that had produced a Super Bowl winner just a couple of seasons earlier, and the team had a waiting list for folks to get season tickets. Boy, when things change, they really change.
So maybe there is a need to shake up the franchise. Will it be just superficial or will it be a deep rooted house foundation shaking event that five to six seasons from now we will look back and say we were glad it happened? Judging by the events of the last two weeks and the major housecleaning of this week, it would seem the Colts will have so many newcomers that ID tags will be issued before training camp. Most have voiced their approval for what has happened so far and cite that it was needed about a year or so ago. But will you still feel the same way if No# 18 is let go because of the uncertainty of his health or because your number one pick is already ready to be put into the game?
Tough times require tough decisions. Everyone loves a winner no matter what is happening off the field. But often you'll find your friends are far are few when things are bottoming out. Let's hope the Colt's fortunes change just like the wind.

Shot in a voyeuristic fashion, in this movie we get to watch stunning Latino stud Glasius masturbate in public. He decides to go fishing on an extremely hot summer's day, getting his rod, reel and dinghy and floating in the waters of his local lake. The fish aren't biting, so instead of playing with his rod, he decides to play with a pole of another sort! He undoes his shorts and starts to masturbate as he floats on the lake, in full view of the dirty old man watching from the bushes with his binoculars. The dirty old man continues to enjoy the view as Glasius parks himself in the cab of his truck, pumping himself off until he creams.

Attacking multicore CPUs
The world of multi-core cpus we have just entered is facing a serious threat. A security researcher at Cambridge disclosed a new class of vulnerabilities that takes advantage of concurrency to bypass security protections such as antivirus software The attack is based on the assumption that the software that interacts with the …
No news at all
Parallel systems have been used for a very long time now -- do you really think these issues haven't been investigated throughly yet? Of course, newbie programmers and beancounters may not be aware, but since when are those the primary audiences of the Reg?
more details in the paper
De Zeurkous, I suggest u read the paper linked in the article.
The problem is real and confirmed by *working exploits* on current software/hardware.
RE: more details in the paper
``read the paper''
I'm sorry to inform you that I've hard more than my fair share of annoyance this week. Besides, if the merit of this paper is nonexisting, why bother *at all*?
``The problem is real''
Yes, we already know that for quite some time, too.
``and confirmed by *working exploits*''
You've totally wasted your time here. We already knew there were problems and we've taken steps to correct them. What more do you offer?
``on current software/hardware.''
As Dijkstra would point out (although not quite in the same words), these problems arise from incorrect design, and can be fixed accordingly by making the design correct. Since this kind of software design is ages old, and the design issues have been explored thoroughly (and, hopefully, fixed in decently managed designs), this is a closed issue -- adding to it will only make the issue more opaque to newbies and the life of historians more difficult.
The time and effort wasted here would better be spent on either coming up with something new and/or actually finding and fixing remaining instances of such problems.
At the least, with the coming chip densities and virtualization software, this could really blow up.
We've got dual and quad core kit right now. Fact is, oct core is next, and then what... hex core. Chips are becoming clusters of systems. On the software side, virtualization is growing the size of exploitable code.
Fore warned is fore armed. And yes, design is the answer, because it is the problem.
I think it's a good reminder.
Pretty much we already knew this
Before the those up to date systems were even made available it's not news.
Re : No news at all, Pretty much we aleady knew this etc.
You mean it's not news to you. If it annoys, you, tough. Personally I'm just grateful that most of the articles are less annoying than reading the same comments posted time and time again. "I already knew that." "As a Reg reader I'm automatically a Real Techie." Along with the oh-so-clever variations of MS with $instead of S. That actually got tired and sad when had been around for more than a few minutes, years ago. The getting coat stuff is getting old too. Sad. And I'm even sadder for still bothering to read comments (though I don't think I'll bother from now on - noone ever seems to add anything other than to stoke their own egos.) Plonkers.
Software and hackers
I find it amusing that we don't have much in the way of useful software that can use a multi-core processor properly, but we have hackers out there making full use of the technology. I sometimes wonder, why don't companies hire the clever dicks who seem to know what there doing?
RE: No news at all, Pretty much we aleady knew this etc.
``You mean it's not news to you.''
This is not Reg Dev. If you want to impress a bunch of newbies with your 1337 h4x0r skillz, go there.
``If it annoys, you, tough.''
Indeed. What I see here is some selfish student proud to have published a paper at all, and only here to boost his/her/it's ego instead of doing something really useful.
``Personally I'm just grateful that most of the articles are less annoying than reading the same comments posted time and time again. "I already knew that."''
Yes, that's /very/ personal indeed.
``"As a Reg reader I'm automatically a Real Techie."''
"As a paper author I'm automatically a Real Scientist."
``Along with the oh-so-clever variations of MS with $instead of S.''
Those mutations serve the purpose of conveying one's general attitude towards the entity in question.
``That actually got tired and sad when had been around for more than a few minutes, years ago.''
Instances of arrogant intolerance got tired and sad for more than a few seconds, millennia ago.
``The getting coat stuff is getting old too. Sad.''
Indeed very sad -- I'm sorry to inform you that my command of the English language is not sufficient to understand the expression 'getting coat' -- can you explain? :X
``And I'm even sadder for still bothering to read comments (though I don't think I'll bother from now on''
That's not a very scientific attitude.
``- noone ever seems to add anything other than to stoke their own egos.)''
Yes, a perfect example turned up right here.
Adding insult to... insult?
Ergo: personal attacks are not going to make up for a mind. Nor do lame attempts at anonymity. You are not interested at all in science, only in fame and success. Well, let me tell you, that PhD will be worth nothing this way, /if/ you get it. I really hope your instructor, mentor, or whoever else oversees you will read and consider this before deciding to hand out one.
RE: Software and hackers
Your information is incorrect. Many UNIX systems are highly parallel, which covers the systems the article concerns itself with.
Re: Software Hackers
I think it's because the clever dicks have minds of their own whereas those working in cubes at M$ (just call me Rodney) have a corporate identity instead.
Re: Software Hackers
David, I wouldn't characterize the masses at M$ like that at all. They are either shackled by the M$ frat-house culture, or they aren't "smart and get it done" type people in the first place. There are more of the latter than the former. M$ complains that it can't hire enough smart people, but when they hire smart people the smart people can't do anything that would actually make a difference. Thus the smart people leave M$ for somewhere they /can/ make a difference.
Did this guy really discover
the same bug that was found in the original bsd unix? Because the last time I read about this attack, the example was taken from a book written in the '70-ies. Avoiding it is easy, either write lock the syscall data area for the duration of the call, or copy the arguments to kernel memory before checking them.
This is beginning to take on the smell of a Flame Forum.
If you are so smartie pants that these articles B-O-R-E you , go write your own paper. These are valuable comments to the masses.
Maybe we have had parallel systems for years in UNIX. How many of the daily masses have a parallel UNIX system running in their home?
I enjoyed the article, I had musings on the subject 20 years ago. My reasoning required a "system/ master" processor that all the other processors used as a gateway to the system. Processes have to be authorized. Since in todays multi-threaded programs/ applets/ processes, there is no "master" processor. The king and subject are the same.
Early on even M$ allowed the option of dedicated processors for certain tasks, unfortunately, it wasn't the system. Not that it would make much difference in their bloated malware.
I use windows because I have to in an academic environment. Almost all our labs are XP. We have some macs, but they are old PPC's. I use it because many applications are available for it. I don't like it because I don't trust M$ to do what is in my best interest.
RE: Progress?
``This is beginning to take on the smell of a Flame Forum.''
I only had to read the first sentence from your previous post to reach the exact same conclusion.
``If you are so smartie pants that these articles B-O-R-E you , go write your own paper.''
I don't do papers. They obstruct research horribly.
``Maybe we have had parallel systems for years in UNIX.''
Except for some Big Iron and most embedded stuff, every single system that really matters.
``How many of the daily masses have a parallel UNIX system running in their home?''
Since when are n00bs and other assorted lusers of any relevance to computing?
``Since in todays multi-threaded programs/ applets/ processes, there is no "master" processor. The king and subject are the same.''
You're way off. Most -- if not all -- Unices boot on one processor and then initialize the others, and the kernel is the King. The latter was, is, and remains the most significant component impacted by security issues. This 'research' changes nothing.
``Early on even M$ allowed the option of dedicated processors for certain tasks, unfortunately, it wasn't the system. Not that it would make much difference in their bloated malware.''
If M$ crap is the issue at stake here, this research loses even more credibility.
``I use windows because I have to in an academic environment.''
Ha, in my lab, if such ethically questionable material was even brought up for consideration, there would be a redundancy in the department at short notice.
``We have some macs, but they are old PPC's.''
POWER is a hell of a lot better than IBM PC-based crap.
``I use it because many applications are available for it.''
Yes, there are /many/ applications available for it. However, most do about the same. Do you prefer drooling on little icons over actual research and subsequent progress?
``I don't like it because I don't trust M$ to do what is in my best interest.''
There are many Unices available for both IBM PCs and Macintoshes. I strongly suggest you take a look at them before conducting faux research and responding to criticism by flaming ur arse off.
Anyway, on a much more personal note, this was it -- I'm withdrawing as an active participant from the engineering community (never had much to do with Ivory Towers, Inc.). I've been flamed, declared a kook, and subsequently either banned or ignored for life about everywhere I offer my honest opinion. I'm tired of treating this game like it's a matter of life (110V) and death (120000V). If someone wants to bear the fruits of my expertise, they'll have to ask /very/ nicely for it from now on. Congratulations on being the final straw.
I like it how
There's always someone that yells "old! I knew this first, glory to me. You think this is big? Well, I knew it first mister; so you are silly, and your base? Well, you know where that belongs."
Oh and there's always one saying "well, it might be old to you, but this is news to me, don't be such a hater, let's just all get along and not call each others moms anything"
And by the end of it, there's some guy buying a tonne of credibility citing "parallell unixes" and maybe some obscure syscall, and then apologetically procedes to explain why he's stuck with windows.
And then, there's always a guy who thinks it's his job to bust some balls, so he gives a one man opinion of why everyone's a mouse in a maze. Dramatically ending his crusade with
"Oh, the internets... we hardly knew ye."
'Flame Wars'
No-one is being banned, no-one is being ignored. And we are not going to moderate away / censor commenters - per se - for being combative or rude.
This is an interesting discussion and it will be just as interesting if the rhetoric is turned down a notch or three.
Chill, people.
El Reg
RE: 'Flame Wars'
I know, not here :) It was still the final straw, however.
Anyway, back on topic...
Science in a dark room
"I don't do papers. They obstruct research horribly."
Research that's not published is just wasted time.
"these problems arise from incorrect design, and can be fixed accordingly by making the design correct"
Zeurkous appears to be living in a bubble. The above statement is about as useful in the real world as the advice "If you want to get to the top of Everest then you simply have to climb up it in some fashion". The execution of both of these masterful plans is a great deal harder.
Well, enough feeding Mr Troll; I'm sure his ivory tower has people to do that for him.
re: No news at all
Well done De Zeurkous - have a sticker.
Personally, I DIDN'T know about this, as I'm not security researcher. I therefore found the article interesting and informative.
Indeed, I might have found your original comment interesting an informative had it:
a] cited a source for your prior knowledge.
b] gone into some (indeed any) detail as to how this problem had already been addressed.
... unfortunately it didn't, which made look a bit like a puerile attempt to massage your ego.
Of course, we all know that it wasn't that at all, don't we? And you're going to prove that by making a mature and reasoned response, rather than just adding further well worded personal attacks and calling people n00bs
Right, I'm off out to enjoy the sunshine now.
RE: RE: Software and hackers
Was thinking less MS products, more Bioshock and Warhammer: Age of Reckoning. I hardly need uber processing power to type out the shite I'm asked for.
And as for unix... look, i dont want to be the guy who stands in the pub explaining to people about how superior it is too windows. I'd rather be the guy standing at the bar failing to chat up the barmaid. At lest that way I KNOW i'm boring someone to death.
Oh. My. God.
> As Dijkstra would point out (although not quite in the same words), these problems arise from incorrect design, and can be fixed accordingly by making the design correct.
Attention! Reality intrusion field on unknown transdimensional frequency!
> The time and effort wasted here would better be spent on either coming up with something new and/or actually finding and fixing remaining instances of such problems.
Captain! An agressive knowitall is decloaking right in front of us.
Evasive manoeuvers!! Fire missiles!
Obnoxious and Troll Like
That's De Zeurkous alright.
Definition of obnoxious:
1. highly objectionable or offensive; odious: obnoxious behavior.
2. annoying or objectionable due to being a showoff or attracting undue attention to oneself: an obnoxious little brat.
3. Archaic. exposed or liable to harm, evil, or anything objectionable.
4. Obsolete. liable to punishment or censure; reprehensible.
And if you disagree with my opinion, then you're wrong! It's as simple as that.
Oh, hang on, now I'm sounding obnoxious and troll-like too.
Easy isn't it!
Common courtesy is a really useful life skill. Learn it.
Here's what's new
This is about as bone-headed as web-sites that check passwords using client-side scripting. Oh, hang on, that's an interesting observation.
OK, so the 286 had call gates and 4 separate stacks (for each of the protection rings) precisely so that system call arguments were copied to a protected area atomically (by the CALL instruction). OK, so *that* probably only happened in the early 80s because Multics had done the same in the 60s. OK, so if you wander off to somewhere like comp.arch you will find people who still remember designing and working on systems from before then that recognised and solved this problem. This attack is older than I am.
What's new is that the AV software *itself* has re-introduced the vulnerability by implementing critical security functions in userland. It's a truly horrendous design error for a security company to have made. That it is a design error is especially significant. The overall design will have been seen and implicitly approved by just about every programmer connected with the product. This is not a case of some new guy making a typo. This is something the whole company missed.
You AV software is designed and written by people who didn't recognise what is perhaps the all-time classic privilege elevation attack. Now, how safe do you feel?
Calm down people...
I believe I sort of understand what De Zeurkous is saying - seeing stuff that was actually discovered and in many cases done _right_ decades ago be ignored for years and then come to public attention as a "new" invention (only this time quite often broken and it seems only because the authors simply ignored what was known about the subject decades ago) does have the potential to piss one off. Then again that's just an emotion and I'm not saying anything about how one should act on it.
On the topic of design and execution - someone remarked that it's the execution that matters. It's true that the execution is a challenge on its own but it's also true that you don't get very far if you completely forget and ignore the design during the execution. And that does seem to be happening a lot. It's as if you're trying to achieve the goal of avoiding head-on collisions on the road. The design is "when in risk of colliding with head-on traffic, turn (left|right) (depending on where you live)". No amount of masterful execution will replace that ingenious design as a general and complete solution of the problem.
I'm a Genius!
I've discovered perpetual motion. However can't be arsed to write down how I did it...I just hope I don't forget it when i sleep tonight...
Proberbly old news anyway...
@Matt Bradley
Sunshine?? It's looking like rain here...
This is a legitimate discussion
I agree with Ken Hagan AND De Zeurkous.
I quibble with Ken Kagen only in the statement about "implementing critical security functions in userland", because we're talking about syscall wrappers here - this is kernelland.
Ken Kagen took everyone down the right road by pointing out that CALL atomically places arguments onto a privileged stack, which system calls read and act on, therefore seemingly no opportunity for exploit. (but this is actually not quite correct - see below)
What Robert Watson is mostly discussing is
a. what happens when you WEDGE something between the two?
b. Particularly when you can have concurrent processes with same access to memory where the args are?
When a userland process makes a syscall, the argument for strings/structures is merely a pointer to the string/structure in userland memory area.
While the pointer could not be changed due to the stack being used, the memory being pointed at, being in userland, certainly could.
If the execution sequence is
PROCESS->SYSCALL(wrapper interception)
wrapper (reads string, accepts argument as valid, or changes them)
WINDOW 1: wrapper interrupted (yields time, scheduler interrupts, etc), wrapper gets a CPU back
WINDOW 2: another process, concurrently running in another CPU, changes userland memory
SYSCALL (real one) triggered
WINDOW #1 is the single CPU window.
Window #2 is the multi CPU/multi core window.
In these windows, another process with userland access (a child process with same memory access) can replace the string/structure contents before the real SYSCALL gets triggered.
So, how do syscall wrapper application developers make sure there is no window of opportunity, particularly WINDOW #2?
As De Zeurkous says, "these problems arise from incorrect design".
The way this kind of issue is handled in a kernel is to use semaphore locking architecture, but this doesn't seem to work here, because you'd have to put semaphore structures around arbitrary userland memory used as arguments to function calls, and you'd have to trust userland apps to obey the semaphore.
A better approach would be to have the syscall wrapper application transfer data structures themselves (copy entire structures, not just pointers to structures), into protected syscall wrapper memory.
There may be even better approaches - but the point about an "incorrect design" being used to insert a wrapper between userland and kernel syscall does seem valid to me.
Great work guys.
This is almost as good as comp.lang.cobol !
try ( http://www.dbforums.com/showthread.php?t=1358734 )
Cobol? you ask. Those old guys really know how to get off , off, off topic and every second thread ends up in a flame war of some sort.
The reg comment-ers have a long way to go to before they can reach such lofty heights but are definately showing promise.
P.S. To some comment-ers.
More pertinent, pithy, and downright insulting comments are possible if you RTFA first.
Isn't it about time that we put this one to sleep?

This Week in Monster Energy Supercross: Seattle
AURORA, Ill. (April 20, 2012) – The 2012 Monster Energy AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship, season returns to the Pacific Time Zone this weekend, with Seattle's CenturyLink Field set to host the 15th race on the schedule tomorrow night.
Villopoto Cruises to Ninth Victory of the Season in Monster Energy Supercross' Return to New Orleans
NEW ORLEANS (April 14, 2012) – A crowd of 33,392 filled the Mercedes-Benz Superdome on Saturday night, as Monster Energy AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship, hosted its 14th race of the 2012 season in a return to New Orleans. One race after capturing back-to-back Supercross Class Championships, Monster Energy Kawasaki's Ryan Villopoto, of Poulsbo, Wash., won his ninth win of the season with a convincing effort. In the Eastern Regional Supercross Lites Class, GEICO Honda's Justin Barcia, of Ochlocknee, Ga., secured his second-consecutive title with a fourth-place finish, while Monster Energy/Pro Circuit/Kawasaki's Darryn Durham, of Butler, Pa., raced to the first victory of his career.
Villopoto Clinches Monster Energy AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship Tonight at Reliant Stadium
Roczen Races to First Supercross Lites Class Win of 2012 Season
HOUSTON (March 31, 2012) – Monster Energy Kawasaki's Ryan Villopoto, of Poulsbo, Wash., clinched his second Supercross Class Championship tonight at the Monster Energy AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship, at Reliant Stadium in front of 48,962 fans. Red Bull KTM's Ken Roczen, of Murrieta, Calif., captured his first Western Regional Supercross Lites Class win of the season.
JGRMX/Toyota/Yamaha's Davi Millsaps, of Murrieta, Calif., opened the Supercross Class with the Nuclear Cowboyz® Holeshot Award but was quickly passed by Villopoto. Star/Valli/Yamaha's Bobby Kiniry, of Holland Patent, N.Y., secured the number-three spot on the opening lap but was passed by Motoconcepts Suzuki's Mike Alessi, of Hilliard, Fla., on Lap 2.
Monster Energy Kawasaki's Jake Weimer, of Rupert, Idaho, passed Alessi on Lap 3 and held this position to lock in his second third-place finish of the season. Millsaps picked up his second runner-up finish of the season.
"It's huge," said Villopoto. "There is a lot of hard work that went into this, and I am only one piece of the pie; the whole Monster Energy Kawasaki team has worked very hard all year to help me make this happen."
Millsaps moved into third place in Supercross Class point standings.
"I want to congratulate Ryan (Villopoto) on his championship; he rode great all year," said Millsaps. "It was slippery out there all day, so you had to choose your lines wisely. I am excited to be back up on the podium."
In the Eastern Regional Supercross Lites Class Main Event, GIECO Honda's Justin Barcia, of Ochlocknee, Ga., won the Nuclear Cowboyz Holeshot Award with Roczen and Rockstar Energy Racing's Blake Wharton, of Pilot Point, Texas, following in second and third, respectively. Roczen passed Barcia on the opening lap, and one lap later, Barcia re-passed him to take over the lead.
On Lap 7, Blake Baggett, of Grand Terrace, Calif., moved around Wharton to take over third place. On his way to what was expected to be his sixth win of the season, Barcia collided with another rider on the final lap of the race and crashed. He re-entered the race and finished second. This allowed Roczen to move into the lead and ride to the second victory of his career.
"This is so awesome," said Roczen. "This is not how I want to win a race. Justin (rode a great race and was really fast tonight, so it is unfortunate that he crashed. I am super happy to be back on top of the box."
Barcia still leads the championship points race by 32 points over Wharton.
"I don't know what I can say," said Barcia. "There is nothing I could do about the crash. I will fight through this and be back in New Orleans."
CBS will broadcast the Supercross class race at 12:00pm EST tomorrow, April 1, 2012.

State Democratic Chairman Jane Kidd ought to be commended, not ridiculed. She hears opportunity knocking for her party, and she wants to take advantage of it.
OK everybody, give me a break. If I have done something wrong, it is not my fault. I'm not trying to make excuses for irritating the bejeezus out of you, but I just can help myself. If you must know, I am sleep-deprived. Me and Hillary.
No good deed goes unpunished. When Gov. Sonny Perdue convened a meeting at the state Capitol last November to pray for rain, a lot of snooty-noses scoffed. Not me. I told my friends they had better find their umbrellas because the governor had asked none other than Dr. Gil Watson, the World's Greatest Preacher, to intercede with God and send some H2O to Georgia.
As promised last time and remembering my "Oglesbyism" that one must start from where we actually are, not from where one might prefer to be, let's talk turkey about Iraq.
Today, this Ides of April 2008, one of Ben Franklin's two certainties - death and taxes - arrives: The tax collector comes a tapping, not so gently rapping, rapping at our chamber door.
It grieves me to hear people complain about all the "crooked politicians" in our government. I have spent much of my adult life around the political arena and, popular though it may be, the perception that our public officials are generally a bad lot is incorrect.
Do you know this phrase? "Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori." It's Latin for, "it is sweet and glorious to die for your country," and was written circa 23 BC by Roman poet Horace in his "Odes." British poet Wilfred Owen borrowed the line in 1917 as the title for this must-read poem:
We're told Ronald Reagan won the Cold War by driving the Soviet Union into bankruptcy. Now the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are pushing the U.S. in the same direction.
In all, I think I've been pretty lucky. Over the years, I've come across all sorts of people. Some were sweet, funny, endearing, brilliant, downright adorable. Some were rude, obnoxious, creepy and offensive. Only on a few occasions, though, have I come across someone who I felt was absolutely evil.
When I was young, I was often embarrassed because I didn't have material things, items other children and their parents could afford. After becoming a mature adult interacting with other adults about childhood, I learned the difference between a house and a home. The first instructions a child should be taught in the home are values, respect and compassion for others as well as themselves. Children need love, safety and nurturing from parents to feel secure and valued.
"There was nobody there to tell", said an elderly victim of the abuse she received from her caregiver.
"I really thought he was going to change this time", comments a victim of domestic violence.
When Republicans first took control of the Georgia House and Senate and the governor's office, I was concerned. Too buttoned-down and serious, I said. They will go to the Capitol, cut taxes, make government smaller and more responsive, jerk their Democrat colleagues around a little and then go home, get re-elected and start the whole thing over again. Not an ideal scenario for someone who makes a living poking fun at politics and those who practice the world's second-oldest profession.
I underestimated them. Turns out Republicans are more cantankerous than a junkyard dog. They haven't done anything ...
Bring back the guys in the smoke-filled rooms. They knew how to pick candidates who could win the White House.
Overheard shortly after Barack Obama's speech in Philadelphia: "He says he's a Christian, but he was born a Muslim. Once a Muslim, always a Muslim. There's only one thing you can do with a Muslim. Kill him."
Overheard shortly after Barack Obama's speech in Philadelphia: "He says he's a Christian, but he was born a Muslim. Once a Muslim, always a Muslim. There's only one thing you can do with a Muslim. Kill him."
On "60 Minutes" recently, Al Gore stated that those who doubt the reality of anthropogenic (man-made) global warming, "are in such a tiny, tiny minority now with their point of view. They're almost like the ones who still believe that the moon landing was staged in a movie lot in Arizona and those who believe the earth is flat."
In 1992 he said, "Only an insignificant fraction of scientists deny the global warming crisis. The time for debate is over. The science is settled." So for about 15 years the former vice president has essentially been calling for people ...
For the past few months, I have heard the same question nearly everywhere I go.
Last week, Democratic gubernatorial candidate Jason Carter shared via this column his vision for public education in Georgia.
With all of the attack ads running on TV this election season, Georgians have no doubt had their fill of pessimism and negativity.
Human nature has changed little over time, but human behavior has. We no longer burn heretics at the stake or torture animals for sport ... well, not the way we did in the past. At least today we pay lip service to social justice and the rule of law.
As a father and a school superintendent, I have an extremely personal interest in the state of our schools. I also have a great respect for the democratic process: the opportunity for vigorous debate and the potential created by new and innovative ideas.
I have asked the two major gubernatorial candidates to talk to Georgia public school teachers about their respective education platforms.

L-Tryptophan not as expected
I read information that L-Tryptophan would help for sleep but I have to say it didnt really work for me. Still had restless nights sleep in addition to feeling groggy in the morning. Have tried it twice and will try again on the weekend since I dont have to get up and go to work.
Does not do what it claims to.

L-Tryptophan by NOW was recommended to me by my doctor. It almost immediately and drastically reduced dark moods bad depression and sleeplessness. Seems miraculous to me. Available at health food stores. Purchased the 1000mg bottle first and it makes me quite sleepy (a good thing) so I take it before bed. Am purchasing this smaller dosage to take at least one more during the day.
Absolutely works FAST!!
