Comment NOBODY WILL EVEN READ THIS (Score 4, Informative) 99
I read the letter. Here's a Cliff's Notes for all you guys who don't read because why evenbother:
Some anonymous devs who are so addicted to github that they probably maintain their grocery list there wrote a letter with a bunch of feature requests. These users re mainly bitching about the fact that users of their own projects don't seem to be able to read or follow instructions. Naturally these people are smart enough and forward thinking enough that they have proposed a perfect solution which requires GitHub to do a shitload of work for free despite the fact that the problems will remain because the users still won't read. A surprising number of other developers clearly can't read or think either and as such signed off on this silliness. Naturally, these well meaning individuals posted all of this to yet another github repo despite the fact that there are many better places and formats to use.
Journalists have picked up the story and have jumped so some pretty wild conclusions, proving beyond the shadow of a doubt that they really can't read either.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from Clean design, fine aesthetics, great functionality. Less-is-more design executed in quality materials yields a perfect fixture for a narrow hall in a high-concept living space. We love it!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Kate T. from Great Light! This light has been a great product thus far. We received it quickly after ordering and it looks great on the wall. I would recommend this product to others.

Rated 5 out of 5 by G Huber from Bright, simple clean lines, and small The AA Sconce gives nice light, has a nice clean line, and its surprisingly small size is a real plus. It allows the fixture (or 4 of them) to work well in a relatively traditional room. I would highly recommend it. (The metal holding the glass is covered with a protective plastic coating, which needs to be removed prior to mounting the fixture. The only white is the glass.)

Rated 4 out of 5 by Anonymous from great little wall sconce We just needed something small and simple and this does the trick. Nice bright light that shoots out the bottom and top. But the best part is the subtle fixture features the curved glass shade which looks nice from all angles - in our case, we view it from the side as we come down the hallway since it's tucked behind a wall to cast light in a nook-type area.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Spintech from Beautiful compact fixture! We purchased three of these fixtures to be mounted on the mirror over the sink in a very small bathroom. The fixture is perfect for this use. It is attractive, compact and almost glare free due to the translucent shade and frosted bulb but still casts good light for shaving, etc.

Current selected tag: economy. Clear.
It is the UK's parlous position, that is giving financial markets their ongoing jitters, not Scotland's economic prospects argues James Meadway. Reading the media representation would make you thin...
Time to stop debating it. It is now beyond any reasonable doubt that the Yes camp has decisively won the economic argument for independence.
From www
The SNP is this evening welcoming an expert report which finds that the full powers of independence would allow the Scottish Government to strengthen and grow the economy.
John Swinney says he'll turn his back on Osborne's agenda, but he will not have the means to do so, writes Peter Jones
Peter A Bell's insight:
Peter Jones effectively makes the argument that binds the British parties into one indistinguishable mess. The argument that "there is no there way". It is a circular argument. Austerity fetishism is the only way because austerity fetishism creates conditions which require austerity fetishism. such is the orthodoxy. By suggesting that there might be an alternative, John Swinney is judged to have committed heresy.
Scotland's got what it takes to be independent, with strong public finances, a range of successful industries and abundant natural resources. Here are sixteen key facts which add up to a bright and successful future for Scotland as an independent country.
THE Chief Secretary to the Treasury has branded claims that Scots could net an "independence bonus" of £1,000 a year as "pure wishful thinking" at the same time as he has been challenged to set out potential cuts to public spending north of the Border if there is a No vote in September's referendum.
Peter A Bell's insight:
An "independence bonus" of £1,000 a year may be optimistic. it may be no more than an aspiration. But surely that is still very much better than the absolute certainty that we will be very much worse off should we be foolish enough to vote No.
First minister says yes vote would boost economy, but Danny Alexander counters with promise of £1,400 'UK dividend'
Peter A Bell's insight:
I am happy to accept that Alex Salmond is painting the brightest picture possible. So what? Why would we expect him to do anything else? And what a treat it is to hear a politician and an economist who is not trying to paralyse us with either fear, depression or boredom but is, instead, trying to lift our spirits, raise our hopes and encourage our aspirations.
One of the most insidious aspects of the Unionist and media attack on independence is the constant refrain of "Scotland will be poorer after independence, so there will have to be cuts to services ...
Given the evidence showing just how viable an independent Scotland's economy would be, where has the opposition come from? Does it hold any credibility?
SCOTTISH independence would create "costs and uncertainties" for businesses which outweigh the benefits, a report for one of the country's leading firms has warned.
Peter A Bell's insight:
I doubt very much if Keith Cochrane, chief executive of Weir Group, will be flattered to have been lumped in with Bill Munro of Barrhead Travel.
John Warren on the 'Broad Shoulders' disequilibrium. David Cameron and Danny Alexander's favourite metaphor is an appeal to the security offered by the UK's "broad shoulders", which is used inspi...
As readers of this site will be well aware, 40 years ago the UK government economist Professor Gavin McCrone analysed the effect of North Sea oil on the finances of a notional independent Scotland,...
Peter A Bell's insight:
All we can conclude from this is that economists really don't have a clue. They are no better at predicting the future than the rest of us.
In a recent paper, "How serious a threat is the UK's financialised economy", published by the Jimmy Reid Foundation, and available on the Reid Foundation website, I analyse the stab...
AN independent Scotland faces higher tax hikes or deeper spending cuts to pay for the SNP Government's flagship
Peter A Bell's insight:
They're a duplicitous lot these British nationalist politicians. When they remember that they are supposed to be putting on a show of being "positive" they will insist that Scotland is a wealthy country perfectly capable of functioning as an independent nation. Then, once they've given their pals in the British media the sound-bite that the spin-quacks insist upon, they revert to doom-mongering type, talking Scotland down at every opportunity and seizing with unseemly, drooling glee any report - however contrived - that forecasts economic disaster.
The No campaign is determined to focus on economics. No matter what the issue, it's going to be spun into the political equivalent of the guy displaying his bum crack in a dodgy repair shop who suc...
Peter A Bell's insight:
After carefully weighing up all the economic arguments, and pondering the consequences at length, I've come to the considered decision that I really couldn't give a toss.
ALEX Salmond's claim that Scotland is one of the world's richest countries has been disputed by a report which claims that the Scottish Government has over-estimated the nation's wealth.
Peter A Bell's insight:
So Scotland might be either the 14th or the 17th richest country in the world. Who the hell cares? Is there any question that Scotland is wealthy enough? Not the slightest. So what is the point of this story?
Before retiring, John Jappy was a senior civil servant in the Inland Revenue, working for the Accountant & Controller General's Branch based at Somerset House in London. His duties involved liaising closely with Treasury officials to prepare accounts and financial information for UK government ministers.
The number of people in a job in Scotland rose by six times the population of Fort William last year, according to Treasury Chief Secretary Danny Alexander.
Peter A Bell's insight:
If the UK Government wants to take credit for Scotland's relatively strong recovery from recession then they must also take the blame for causing the recession in the first place.
Well, thank god that's over. According to Olivier Blanchard, the IMF's chief economist, the British economy is now clear of its longest and most severe crisis since the 1930s and c...
LONDON (Reuters) - A group of Scottish financiers came out in support of independence on Thursday to counter a flood of warnings over Scotland going it alone, cautioning that staying within the United

AbstractOur country's safety often falls on the shoulders of soldiers called on to perform their best for extended periods of time, often days at a time. During such situations, the ability to stay awake (or quickly fall asleep) is essential. Properly administered, pharmaceutical agents can play a critical role helping soldiers in these situations. Unfortunately, oral ingestion may result in unwanted drug peaks and valleys or gastrointestinal drug degeneration, while transdermal application is slow and limited to low molecular weight drugs. To provide a solution, Los Gatos Research has developed a massively parallel microfluidic pump capable of providing large flow rates (100 microliters/minute) at low voltages (less than 3 Volts). This unique pump is small, robust, and lightweight without moving parts or inlet/outlet adaptors. Such a pump can be battery-powered and integrated with a microprocessor to provide programmable drug delivery over an extended period of time (up to three days). Furthermore, in conjunction with chemical enhancers and microneedle arrays, our integrated micropump will be able to increase effective skin permeability for pharmacological agents by orders of magnitude. Together, these components will be combined inside a transdermal patch to create a simple, portable, rugged, disposable, and non-intrusive drug delivery vehicle.

About this Tip:
Learn how you can embellish a collage bracelet using 6x6" Paper Pads, Glitter and Resin.
The products featured in this tip are listed below.
Step-by-Step Instructions:
Step 1:
Create a template using a heavier-stock paper that fits perfectly inside of the bezels. Trace the template 8x all over the patterned paper using the template, highlighting the areas that you'd like to feature in your bracelet.
Step 2:
Use an Exacto blade to cut out the outlined shapes. At this point, it's a good idea to place the shapes in your bezels to make sure they're going to fit properly.
Step 3:
Seal your paper cutouts on all sides and edges with a sealer or craft glue. Take a little bit of that adhesive and brush it on the back of the bezel. Then, place the paper in the bezel and pin down the corners gently with a toothpick. Using that same toothpick, apply bits of adhesive to the areas that you'd like to add glitter.
Step 4:
Open your glitter containers carefully and in a place where you won't bump them. Take a little glue and brush onto certain spots on your paper that you want to attach glitter to. Place your glitter before the glue dries, covering as much or as little of the background paper as you'd like.
Step 5:
Mix enough resin to fill your bezels. Using the stir stick, add drops of resin to each bezel, filling in as evenly as possible. Add depth to your bezels by sprinkling more glitter in the half-filled bezels. Doming the resin will magnify everything and give your bracelet a more dramatic look. Doming works best when your resin isn't super runny, so you may need to work fast.

The naming convention for the plugins is fine, but I think it would be nice if users are able to declare required plugins using simpler names like "pdf", "text", "docbook" and so on. We can figure out what simple names exactly to use later. I just wanted to see what people feel about this? It should be trivial to implement (though I have _no_ clue how! :-D), and I think it'll make config much less intimidating (even I get scared typing org.apache.forrest.input.viewHelper.xhtml.ls) Diwaker -- Web/Blog/Gallery: http://floatingsun.net

Skip to comments.Toronto Police getting smaller crusiers
Posted on 01/18/2014 12:00:34 PM PST by rickmichaels
TORONTO - Toronto Police are downsizing.
Most of its big Ford Crown Victoria cruisers which have not been built since 2011 will likely be retired by 2016.
Until then, Const. Wendy Drummond said officers will road test smaller cars and SUVs to determine the best type of replacements.
Despite being on the road for months, many people have not seen the Toronto Police-marked test autos.
Drummond said four Taurus Police Interceptors and two Ford Explorers are driven on regular patrols, which allow for the collection of data.
Older-style 5.4-by-1.96 metre, V-8 Crown Victoria Police Interceptors have a 2.9-metre wheel base and are 1.4 metres tall.
The front-wheel-drive 2014 Taurus measures 5.15-by-1.9 metres, is 1.54 metres tall, and has a 2.86-metre wheel base. Two beefed-up 3.5-litre V6 engines are offered.
Departments across Canada and the United States, which share information through a police co-operative purchasing group whose members also attend squad car trials hosted each fall by the Michigan State Police have good reason to need different vehicles, which also include General Motors and Chrysler cruisers.
Produced in St. Thomas, Ont. for global law enforcement use, Crown Vics were the last full-sized real-wheel-drive North American cop cars, after General Motors discontinued its four-door V-8 Chevrolet Caprice in 1996.
Thousands of the Fords are still on patrol, but will soon reach the end of the road.
Guidelines that restrict police use on the hours an engine has operated, plus mileage and overall condition, maintain safety standards and reduce time lost due to mounting repairs needed by older vehicles especially those as hard-driven as cruisers.
To maintain its fleet, Toronto Police paid $5 million for 300 Crowns in 2011.
The bulk order provided $1.5 million in savings, Drummond said. Stored and regularly test-run, we were able to deploy those vehicles over the last three years.
Other forces have bought competitors smaller vehicles for several years, including the OPP, who also use SUVs.
In 2009, GM announced a new Police Patrol Vehicle (PPV). Based on the Holden Caprice, the V-8 powered four-door Chevrolets are imported from Australia.
Chryslers new rear-wheel-drive, V-6 or V-8 Dodge Charger hit the road in 2006.
Some officers complain of feeling cramped due to their bulky personal equipment plus computer consoles. Many dont like frontwheel drive while others have lauded the smaller cars.
Drummond said a decision on new replacement cars is expected in November.
In keeping with the environmentally conscious times, they will now drive smart cars, prius, and volts.
Nah,...two man bicycles.
As seems to be the new wave in law enforcement, if you shoot the ones you would have taken to jail in the past, you don't need so large a car. Kinda makes sense. They're just looking out for the taxpayers.
A lot of the LEOs here in Indiana are quite overweight.
Of course maybe management needs to lead by example.
For pursuit purposes -- it really doesn't matter what they drive, you simply cannot outrun police radio.
Now response times to home burglaries, etc.. are another story entirely. No substitute for HP and torque in those situations.
Going after speeders
Segway with a radio flyer wagon in tow.
How can you have a proper chase scene with front wheel drive cop cars?
"YOU on the roller skates! Pull over now!"
*Doesn't wait for skater to comply, pit maneuvers him into the bushes*
Well, you'd think they would at least go for an
all electric...
"Dude, your electric motor is on fire! The sparks ignited my pants!"
Shut up you pansy, you're under arrest!
*Cuffed, tossed into back of smoking electric car*
Another victory for electric!
*Drives off, smoking, into the smokeset*
"Right, burglary at your house, we're on the way...
Say, you do have a recharging station there don't you?"
I honestly CAN imagine some PD going all electric.
I can also imagine the battery sparking and venting into the crew cabin at some point in this escapade.
"Under arrest for impeding an investigation! You lack a recharging station!"
Traffic cops are so old fashioned- Drones are the new enforcers.
The Toronto Police Department needs to step up their game. Such as a PorschePolizei Car:

nodemon is a great tool for use when writing Node.js applications. It is a simple little tool that simply watches for changes in the file system of your project and restarts the Node.js application when a file changes.

I just read this interview article with Bob Martin and I have a few thoughts about it. Uncle Bob is extremely code-focused and always has been in his career. This isn't a criticism, far from it, but one must take that into account when reading his opinions on such matters. He is heavily involved in the Software Craftsmanship movement, which he sees as a follow-on to the Agile Manifesto itself. Like any business practice, Agile
Memo on O-Ring and Software Erosion
One of the most fascinating documents I've read to date is the memo from Roger Boisjoly on O-Ring Erosion. The original target audience for this memo he'd written were the management folks of Morton Thiokol back in 1985, about six months before the Challenger disaster. What I find so striking about this whole story is its resemblance to the field of software engineering. We software developers can relate to this story all too well. I've
Definition of Ready
There is a practice in many agile conversations known as having a "Definition of Ready" for a Product Backlog item. That is, a given User Story (or other PBI) must meet the Team's "Definition of Ready" to be considered actionable or even worthy to estimate. This can be desirable from the team's perspective when they are not getting enough information about the work they are being asked to do by the Product Owner. While I

I've had some great opportunities working with teams applying lean and agile techniques to domains beyond software development. Along with other areas, I'm having lots of conversations around applying Scrum in HR teams. This is fairly unique because the core usage model for Scrum is to apply it when the work is fairly unknown and complex, and the team is working together to create a shared product. Many knowledge worker teams simply aren't like this.
Several teams I've worked with wonder why it is important to finish work within the Sprint timebox. "This is an artificial container for my work," they explain. "Why can't our work just take the time it takes? Why must it be get all the way done in one Sprint?" In my experience, these frustrated teams are likely looking to move away from poorly implemented Scrum toward what will be disastrously implemented Kanban and just-in-time work
Many software development teams, especially those creating or supporting a shared platform or infrastructure, find themselves overwhelmed by ad-hoc work requests. A frequent response to this situation is to move from an iterative, incremental practice to Kanban or some other flow-based model. In many situations, this is the exact opposite of what should happen. When a team finds itself foundering under the weight of system support or ad-hoc work requests, it may be time to

An Angel's Tit. http://www.mixologymadesimple.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/at1.jpg
Since this morning there's a few updatesI replied to her picture msg and was joking with her, and also complimented her, she received it well and flirty. Then I asked if she wanted to do anything tonight. She replied said she couldn't because she had to work. So I don't reply for a few hours and then I'm like soooo, I'll pick you up after your shift. She replies, asking what will we do? I told her since it's late we can just hangout over here again and do whatever she's comfortable with as long as we can chill n talk I'm happy. She replied, okay sounds good.She's really confusing Bad move... Usually when people get out of work they want to go home and shower. You're gonna be hanging out with her when she's tired, feeling dirty and not looking her best. She will probably be stand offish if you attempt to check her oil . Still, pretty curious about how it goes. Good luck dude.
thanks why wont pepole get itthat im a girl I believe you Ally. Godspeed.
delete "get" and my partner was my wife, so I wasn't her boyfriend, but my friend Ken was. That's beautiful.
get more pussy! That's three words Emerson.
I sucked him one night when she was having sex with both of us, I was fucking her and she was sucking his cock, so I started kissing her and his cock came out and I put it in my mouth and boy did I like it, I sucked him for a couple minutes then she put it back in her mouth and told me that that was her cock, but after she went to sleep I sucked him off, Also a couple times after that, I've had a few more blow jobs with guys that she don't know about too. That's quite a scene you painted there. I wish I hadn't read it but it's too late for that now.What I was more confused about was the fact that your partner has a boyfriend. I was like, wait...aren't you her boyfriend?
It was a bad move to ask her to hang out again the same night you first hung out. She really isn't sure what she's doing the next week and she's not gonna say no especially if you had just had a good time so you really don't know where you stand when you do that. Her canceling but texting you may seem like mixed signals but maybe it's not. She does sound like a busy girl. She could be texting you because she really is busy and doesn't want to make you feel rejected. I guess it depends on what exactly she texts you. If she is flirty... You need to actually think of something fun to do rather than just hanging out at your house again or something like that. If she likes baseball games, or amusement parks or something like that you need to tell her you scored some tickets. Inviting her over to your house may may her think you're just trying to score. A dinner date might seem too formal and an obvious "I like you" kind of date. But if you can figure out a more exciting date to take her on and she's flirty like she was on the first time you hung out you need to just make a move. She'll either reject you and you can laugh it off or she'll be into it. If she rejects you she just wanted to be friends and she'll slowly faze you out of her life unless you're cool and not an asshole to her for getting rejected. Remember you work with this girl so don't be that bitter dude.
that I've been sucking cock. and have sucked her boyfriend off a couple times. What
Ok seriously Jack, I saw your forum about skinny vs curvy girls and your posts to anyone who made a wise crack or drifted off topic and you didn't like it so why do it to others? By all means attack me but what your doing isn't right. This thread already got off to bad start and was just getting back on track, please don't spoil it why cant you just make a valuable contribution to the thread I have seen you do it in others many times and when you do I've often agreed with what you've had to say, I don't however agree with the posts in here you have made thus far. Look kiera. That's very flattering. But I'm taking this thread very seriously. I was promised butthole pics and I didn't get them. What's right is right and so far I've been wronged. Butthole or get the fuck out.
My closest friends here didn't become my closest friends until after they requested me as a friend. Wow, so conceited. Disgustingly conceited.
for the record i was really interested in why but now i don't care. You're so annoying... I have no words.
(cutting to the chase) Let's see that butthole, girl. I didn't send that request for nothing.
Oh hell yeah! I still have my N64 and sometimes I hook it up to go back and play WWF No Mercy. Nostalgia overload! Mariokart 64 and GoldenEye all day.

What a sourpuss.
Okay, I'll have to give him a listen. What's he been in? He's the little person in the show Game of Thrones. There are scenes on YouTube but they will contain spoilers for sure.
I think Peter Dinklage pulls off a good accent. It's not over the top. I thought he was english at first until I found out he was born in New Jersey. I'm American though so to an English person it might not sound right.
I like that you can add a picture or a "cover" image to stories now and I usually throw together something with the title on it for my gallery but I have refrained from loading them into the stories because there is that semi-transparent black box with the white text that states the title and author of the story over your image. I have always thought that that transparent box is redundant (and ugly) because You can already see the title and author you don't need another box saying so over your image. A cover image should look like an actual cover and the ones I put together for my stories do actually look like a book cover so the transparent box over them would make it look stupid so I just don't add images. What I am proposing is that there be an option to display that black box or not. I understand it's good for people that don't know how to add their own type to a picture but to the other people that can, that box is just annoying.
The only kind of surrogate I would be is a sexual one.
So would you like a gal like me to sperm you This is one of my favorite sentences I have ever read.
I grabbed my dictionary dear. I understand what disingenuous means. I was wondering how I was being insincere. Did I say something to the opposite? You're out of your element, dear.
How so? You are not being sincere in what you are saying.
Shame on you Felix, lol. For shame Felix you shaming on the Rage shame! LOL Put some pants on Felix!

Investors are rightly frustrated by market correlation. Lockstep trading in stocks is the clearest evidence that corporate fundamentals are being ignored and traders are dumping good stocks along with the bad. Here's a consolation prize: Correlation can also be a useful sentiment indicator, helping to gauge whether conditions are right to buy. Exchange-traded funds throw off myriad correlation signals.
Intuitively, extreme correlation indicates traders have become indiscriminate, usually by selling heavily. That's why the phenomenon can be mined for sentiment, much like sovereign-bond yields, credit-default swaps, or volatility indexes are. "It's one of the symptoms of capitulation," says Nicholas Colas, a strategist at ConvergEx Group who views very high correlation as a buy signal. Right now, the signal is high but not extreme, a cautionary signal. But it wouldn't take much to push correlation further.
One simple way to track correlation is to compare the Standard & Poor's 500 stock index with the nine SPDR sector ETFs, each of which tracks an S&P 500 sector. The long-term historical average correlation is between 50% and 70% depending on the sector, according to Colas's research. But the percentages have stayed above average since the financial crisis, as investors remain on hair-trigger.
As of mid-June, those sectors averaged a 30-day correlation of about 88% versus the broad index, with the highest reading for the Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR XLY 0.1103888139335214% Consumer Discretionary Select Sector SPDR ETF U.S.: NYSE Arca 81.62 0.09 0.1103888139335214% /Date(1469826000071-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 3874446 AFTER HOURS 81.62 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 121821 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap N/A Dividend Yield 1.3560401862288656% Rev. per Employee N/A More quote details and news » Fund (ticker: XLY), at 96%, followed by the Industrial Select Sector SPDR XLI -0.2920460401992785% Industrial Select Sector SPDR ETF U.S.: NYSE Arca 58.04 -0.17 -0.2920460401992785% /Date(1469826000502-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 10619156 AFTER HOURS 58.1188 0.0788 0.1357684355616816% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 93243 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap N/A Dividend Yield 2.1169951757408683% Rev. per Employee N/A More quote details and news » Fund (XLI), at 95%. The lowest percentage is enjoyed by the relatively staid Utilities Select Sector SPDR XLU 0.5983400887859487% Utilities Select Sector SPDR ETF U.S.: NYSE Arca 52.12 0.31 0.5983400887859487% /Date(1469826000002-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 15296162 AFTER HOURS 52.14 0.02 0.03837298541826554% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 178509 P/E Ratio N/A Market Cap N/A Dividend Yield 3.159048349961627% Rev. per Employee N/A More quote details and news » Fund (XLU), at 59%. Back in March, when months of solid stock-market gains had investors feeling more confident, sector correlations averaged 80% and the utilities fund was near 40%. But the readings have been rising. That usually isn't a good sign for investor confidence.
An "extreme" reading of 95% or greater would mean that the sectors are trading in such tight lockstep that there's hardly any room for correlation to rise. That's a buy, says Colas. In those cases, margin calls and other factors are forcing investors to drop stocks first and ask questions later. Such levels, reached in both mid-2010 and late summer 2011, were good times to buy. With Europe's sovereign-debt crisis reaching a seeming crescendo and the fate of the euro at stake, a similar moment appears to be ahead. But it's not here yet.
A complication: High correlation can stick around for a while. Sector percentages bobbed in the low-to-mid nineties for much of mid-to-late 2011 before heading lower. Of course, viewed in the context of the bullish winter and spring that followed, the stretch now appears to have been a good time to buy. The signal, in short, is a decent addition to an investor's sentiment tool box.
"Sector correlation is certainly a proxy for people's sensitivity to macro risk," says Nelson Saiers, chief investment officer at Alphabet Management, a New York hedge fund that uses options to bet on the volatility and correlation of stocks and other assets. "Increases in this number can speak to a risk-off mode"—a mode that buyers can exploit.
IT'S WORTH NOTING THAT THESE observations are separate from the lively debate over whether ETFs themselves contribute to higher market correlation. State Street's David B. Mazza, a strategist at the firm's SPDR ETF Strategy & Consulting group, is the latest to wade into the discussion. Mazza concludes in the Journal of Index Investing that correlation is more closely aligned with the state of the macroeconomic environment and may see "little" influence from ETFs.
Of course, it may be most notable that an official at a company that would benefit if investors were to stop examining the subject has written that ETFs may have even a small effect.

Time was when "emerging markets" meant poor or middle-income countries with fast growth. But the wealthier and more interconnected that onetime emerging markets grow, the more their stock trading correlates with the developed world. Hence, more investors have pushed farther into "frontier markets" and other exotic niches in search of what they used to get in the emerging markets. MSCI will take up the issue again next year. Also on next year's agenda: whether to demote Greece from developed to emerging market.

LaPierre spoke senseApril 03,2013In a March 25 editorial regarding gun control the Heralds editorial writer referred to an appearance on Meet The Press by the NRAs Wayne LaPierre. LaPierre offered an interesting piece of information that I had never heard before and that I felt was very news worthy.
Specifically, LaPierre asked the shows host David Gregory: Why doesnt NBC News start with, of all the jurisdictions in the country, Chicago is dead last in the enforcement of federal gun laws? Why doesnt the national press corps, when they are sitting down with Jay Carney and the president and the vice president, why dont they say Why is Chicago dead last in enforcement of the (federal) gun laws against gangs with guns, felons with guns, drug dealers with guns?
LaPierre may have as well been talking to the wall, as his question was totally ignored by Gregory, just as it is by the Herald. I wonder why?

Linux Conference at Open Systems World/FedUNIX'94
Open Systems World/FedUNIX'94 in Washington DC, in its sixth year, included several conferences and classes such as the FedUnix Sessions, Motif/COSE Users Conference, Novell AppWare Developers, SCO, Solaris, Windows NT, and World Wide Web/Mosaic conferences. For the first time, on December 1 and 2, Open Systems World offered a Linux International Users and Developers Conference and a one-day Linux Tutorial.
The suggestion to include a Linux conference at Open Systems World was made by Thomas Sterling, the Acting Director of CESDIS (Center of Excellence in Space Data and Information Sciences). Alan Fedder, the director of Open Systems World, made the choice to bring Linux to Open Systems World/FedUNIX'94.
Linux Journal developed and sponsored the Linux conference with immeasurable help from the speakers and other volunteers. One article cannot begin to include all the information presented at the sessions and the tutorial; future articles will include a more in-depth and technical report about each session.
Approximately 50 people signed up for the conference and the tutorial, but there were 67 people, including speakers, present during the one-day conference. Included in the conference were several panel discussions interlaced with presentations from experts on particular subjects.
Robert Young of ACC Bookstore moderated four panel members: Eric Youngdale and Donald Becker representing developers and Dan Irvin of Linux Systems Laboratories and Mark Horton, a support person for InfoMagic, representing resellers.
Audience during panel discussion.
The opinions of all the panelists seemed to be that a cooperative relationship existed, and would continue to exist, between developers and resellers. There was mild dissension about Linux support when the moderator commented that the user couldn't get, or shouldn't expect to get, Linux support for the low price of a Linux distribution on CD; this was disputed by Mark Horton, support person for InfoMagic, who replied that the InfoMagic CD-ROM included support, and discussed the kind of support they were giving. Horton added that, in general, the support wasn't getting abused/overused by the end user.
There was a feeling of good will between developers and resellers. This was definitely a panel discussion, not a panel argument.
Moderated by Michael K. Johnson, the four panelists included Marc Ewing of Red Hat Software, Mark Komarinski who writes the "System Administration" column for Linux Journal, Ross Biro of Yggdrasil Computing and Mark Bolzern of WorkGroup Solutions.
Mark Horton, Mark Komarinski and Phil Hughes
They discussed the current commercial products available for Linux, obstacles to the development of commercial products, and how commercial vendors might be persuaded to port their product to Linux and market it.
There are already about 50 commercial applications available for Linux, including Tecplot, ISE Eiffel, Genplot, dBMan, ESQLFLEX and JustLogic Database Manager. Although Linux users expect relatively inexpensive applications, it's not profitable for commercial marketers to produce such low-cost applications due to development and marketing costs. Distribution channels can be a significant cost factor in inexpensive applications, as well as the cost of advertising, which can, for example, run $3,500 for a one-time quarter page ad in a popular Unix magazine.
Mark Bolzern said that while Linux is becoming "the Unix of choice", Linux is not yet trusted to be mission-critical. Bolzern anticipates, however, that over the next year, Linux will be used in this capacity, such as the application currently in use at Virginia Power for real-time data collection.
Ross Biro stressed the importance of hardware in the commercial future of Linux. Except for Cyclades who makes serial boards, there aren't enough hardware vendors making their products' specifications available for Linux developers. There was general agreement among audience members, the panel and the moderator about the need for more hardware support for Linux. (However, it's rumored that half of Cyclades' domestic sales of one of their serial boards is to Linux users.) Mark Komarinski noted that having most of the kernel written in C (as it is now) will help with porting to hardware.
Some panelists and audience members added positive comments about the two ports for the DEC alpha chip in progress: one being done by DEC, the other by Linus Torvalds on a machine loaned to him by DEC.
Mark Bolzern talked about how his company was investing in its Linux application now and pricing it far below the actual price the development and marketing costs would allow for such a product, because they anticipate that the future volume of sales to the Linux market will make this worth their investment.
Bolzern advised that his company is paying a PR firm to promote Linux, with the idea that increased sales of their product will follow as Flagship demos become available on many more of the different Linux distributions on CD-ROM. To help with the PR work, he asked for success stories, such as how Linux users replaced their whole network with Linux systems, or did something with Linux that could not be done any other way.

Practical Task Scheduling Deployment
On Demand
One of the best things about the UNIX environment (aside from being stable and efficient) is the vast array of software tools available to help you do your job. Traditionally, a UNIX tool does only one thing, but does that one thing very well. For example, grep is very easy to use and can search vast amounts of data quickly. The find tool can find a particular file or files based on all kinds of criteria. It's pretty easy to string these tools together to build even more powerful tools, such as a tool that finds all of the .log files in the /home directory and searches each one for a particular entry. This erector-set mentality allows UNIX system administrators to seem to always have the right tool for the job.
Cron traditionally has been considered another such a tool for job scheduling, but is it enough? This webinar considers that very question. The first part builds on a previous Geek Guide, Beyond Cron, and briefly describes how to know when it might be time to consider upgrading your job scheduling infrastructure. The second part presents an actual planning and implementation framework.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

Can a Windows 8.1 recovery disk be created using Windows 10?
My old laptop will not boot after trying to upgrade from 8.1 to 10. It's trying to do the scan & repair thing but it gets hung up at 12% and then shuts down completely. (Overheating, I assume, because it won't start again at all for about ten minutes, then it does the same as before, pausing at 12% etc.) [more inside]

Resources for a woman in tech facing a lot of gender bias at work.
A friend is a senior engineer at a small company—the only woman in a senior technical role at the company—who, after years of working for them (she was literally the first hire) is hitting a lot of resistance from the men above, most of it the typical "Women in the workplace" b.s. She strongly believes in the work and the company, but is getting regularly undermined. I'd love to find some resources (books, blogs, forums, strategies, etc.) to help her deal effectively with the people making the workplace ridiculous. [more inside]

Front-end web developer career for person with a disability?
I am disabled and can only work remotely, part-time. I'd like to become a front-end web developer. I've heard that after your education (in an online bootcamp or whatever) a lot of the actual learning for this career happens your first few years when you're working as a junior developer full-time in an office. Is that true? Have you encountered many part-time jobs in this field? [more inside]
Making an old MacBook Pro work for a single purpose

Optionally minded

Goal charting app?
In the past when I've had big long-term goals (study a language for 300 hours, bike 2,000 miles this summer, etc.) it's been motivating for me to make a big grid on a wall to represent the goal. The grid is divided into however many units of goal I want to accomplish and I color in each unit as I put in the work. It's similar to the fundraising thermometer way to visually represent progress. Is there an iphone app (preferably something attractive with minimal text) that is good for this kind of goal tracking? Most goal tracking apps I've found so far are way too complicated and not what I'm looking for.

Can you help me get my elder relative online?
I just got a senior-oriented tablet (GrandPad) so my elderly, beloved relative can video chat and receive digital photos. However, I can't get the tablet onto his house WiFi and it's really frustrating. I am able to get other devices onto his WiFi, so the WiFi works. The tablet is able to log into other networks, so it's not that the tablet's connectivity is totally borked. But they won't work together. I traveled hundreds of miles to set this tablet up and have to leave Tuesday, so for me the stakes are high. [more inside]
It's Occasionally Techy in Philadelphia
After 10+ years away, I'm considering the possibility of moving back to the Philadelphia area for the right career opportunity. Unfortunately, I don't know much about what the job market for software developers is like there now. Does anyone have any thoughts on what things are like for senior software developers in Philly these days, or any recommendations for reputable tech recruiters in the area? What about some good companies to work for that believe in work/life balance, are paying decent money, and doing interesting things? Details follow after the fold. [more inside]
Can anyone identify this device pointed at our bathroom windows?
Here are a couple of photos taken from inside our bathroom. I'm afraid I might seem paranoid, but we've been having an ongoing dispute with the neighbors who placed it there (which recently culminated in being forced to file a restraining order). Someone suggested it might be some kind of carbon monoxide or VOC detector, since they had accused us of letting smoke waft onto their property. But the window has remained closed thus so far, and there's something inside of it that glints like a camera lens when the light hits it just right.

Name that super-specialized job title for the engineer-turned-marketer
Severalish months ago I read an article that described a new kind of professional: the engineer-turned-marketer.

TechSupportFilter: Keyboard is behaving a little strangely.
We've got a mac running OS 10.9.5, with a wireless keyboard. Every time we hit the n key OR the command key, it acts as if we've hit command-n. There is not a shortcut set up, I've already checked the system preferences. This behavior happens in every application. What on earth is going on?

Old Mozilla/Tech Blog Post About Software Persistence?
I read a personal blog post maybe five years ago arguing from a philosophical point that no software should "die" but should persist, i.e. restarts should be seamless or unnecessary. It was written with particular regard to Firefox extensions although it also mentioned Apache. It was most likely by someone in the Mozilla-sphere (read: syndicated on Planet Mozilla), but they may have linked to a piece by a general high-profile tech blogger. Searching for obvious keywords is drawing blanks, can anyone identify or locate the blog post in question for me?

How do I sell an invention?
I come from both a design and engineering background, although never got to do design+engineering for a living. But I have lots if ideas for inventions that I think are viable. However, I have no interest in going on "Dragon's Den" or similar. I don't want to manufacture these devices or run a manufacturing company. I'm not a businessman, I'm an ideas man. I can express my ideas in a way an engineer would understand due to my background. How do I sell my inventions to companies?
EPIC Recording Device
I'd love to find a recording device that can fit within my pocket and record words said quietly ten feet away. I am a normal/small size woman with smallish pockets. But it's WINTER! Coat pockets are large, but are padded and seem to muffle the recordings I take on my phone QUITE A BIT. Needed for non-creepy, extra moral applications only, I assure you. Triple bonus points for amazon links.
Chart for history of technology
I'm looking for a comprehensive chart to help me understand the history of technology. This can be either an online "chart" or a paper chart. I want a chart that covers the entire history of mankind, but given how much technology was invented in the last century or so, I would like one that covers modernity too. Does anyone have any recommendations?
Not my email.
Recently got a new iPhone 6 from Sprint. Today I went to the Find My iPhone app for the first time and someone else's email address is in the email field although it is not logged in. Why is that? No one has had access to my phone. The email address in question is email@example.com if it matters. Maybe I'm dumb and this is standard, but I couldn't find any answers on Google.
Keepin' Up with the Future
My role at my job is changing and I need to stay more abreast of the latest trends in IT, specifically: enterprise platforms (CRMs, CSMs, Human Resources, General Ledger, and lots more!), mobile strategy, cloud-first strategy, DaaS, and I'm sure things I don't even know about yet. I'm looking for good blogs/online resources that I can stay on top of to help me with this. Note: I do not have a CS background, but am OK reading things that require additional digging to understand. [more inside]

New magazine issue notifications
I'd like a service that notifies me when a new issue of a magazine of choice comes out.

Does this tech wizard exist in SF?
All of my laptops inevitably, inexorably slow down noticeably, way before they should. I know this happens with all computers. I am reasonably tech-savvy. But my current ThinkPad slowed down in the first three months. I want someone to take my laptop, figure out what's making it slow (software and/or hardware), and fix it all. I just want my computer to not be slow. Does such a person exist in SF? Who are they, where can I find them, and how much do they charge?
