power saving for smarter planet
Hi All,
I usually lock my screen when I leave my cubicle for a tea-break etc.
With all the awareness for saving Energy etc. etc. I have disabled screen-savers on my system.
Still when I lock my screen I noticed that the LCD doesn't turn off completely.
Then I wanted to save even that little bit of light emitted i.e. wanted to switch off the LCD.
This command helps us do that :
xset dpms force off;
and this is the command invoked when I press "Alt+Ctrl+l" to lock the screen :
gnome-screensaver-command --lock;
Then, I wanted to associate the following command to a shortcut key:
gnome-screensaver-command --lock; xset dpms force off;
So that I can lock as well as power off my LCD screen with a keyboard shortcut.
So, I installed xbindkeys to add a custom shortcut key:
sudo apt-get install xbindkeys
"gnome-screensaver-command --lock; sleep 1; xset dpms force off;"
created the default config file :
xbindkeys --defaults > /home/your-user-name/.xbindkeysrc
Then to assign a shortkey, you can either edit this file manually or do it through xbindkeys-config(sudo apt-get install xbindkeys-config).
I removed the default enabled lines (somehow they interfered with my other shortcuts) from ~/.xbindkeysrc and appended the following lines :
"gnome-screensaver-command --lock; sleep 1; xset dpms force off;"
I was forced to give a "sleep 1" between the two commands; else it was not working ... maybe because of compiz animation time.
Now, when I press "alt+control+k" I save power as well as lock my screen.
Spread this word and let's save energy, so that our grand-children are not forced to lead a life in dark.

Practical Task Scheduling Deployment
July 20, 2016 12:00 pm CDT
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


text: 000 FXUS66 KOTX 310013 AFDOTX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Spokane WA 513 PM PDT Sat Jul 30 2016 .SYNOPSIS... Dry and breezy weather will peak by late afternoon and early evening, continuing the concerns for rapidly spreading wildfires. Sunday and Monday will be more seasonal temperatures with less wind. Another potent cold front is expected on Tuesday, and will likely produce more windy weather as well as the chance for thunderstorms along the Canadian border. Dry and warmer weather is expected late next week. && .DISCUSSION... Tonight through Monday: The Inland NW will be under the influence of dry westerly flow, as an upper level low pressure system sits to the north and a flat ridge of high pressure lies to the south. Within the westerly flow, a jet stream of 80-90kt will be found aloft. A dry cold front will exit north Idaho this evening. In the wake of this system, westerly surface winds remain breezy and gusty from the afternoon and into the evening across the low lands of eastern Washington. Expect gusts of 30-40 mph early this evening with the possibility of patchy blowing dust. The breezy conditions in combination with low relative humidities with values in the teens will keep the region on alert for rapid fire spread. A red flag warning remains in effect for much of eastern Washington through 9 pm. The gustiness will taper off overnight in most locations, except for the Cascade gaps, Waterville Plateau and the western Basin where gusty winds will likely continue until early Sunday morning. Overnight temperatures will remain mild with the increased winds. Dry westerly flow will continue on Sunday with temperatures about 5 degrees cooler than today and locally breezy conditions by the afternoon. Due to the dry atmosphere, the chances of convection will be low but the best area would be along or north of the Canadian border. The low pressure system in BC shifts east on Monday allowing for a shortwave ridge of high pressure to build and temperatures to warm. Surface winds back to the south for Monday as temperatures climb a few degrees, placing them near normal for the start of August. /rfox. Monday Evening through Tuesday: The GFS has slowed down the timing just a bit of the closed low to move into the region, but the ECMWF has very similar timing and track as the previous run. The closed low and strong cold front will push through during the late overnight hours Monday night into early Tuesday morning for the Cascades and then Tuesday morning and afternoon for eastern WA and north ID. Winds will increase starting Monday evening and will continue through the day on Tuesday. The strongest sustained winds will occur Tuesday afternoon and evening after the front goes through. However a 90+ kt jet will move into the Cascades early Tuesday morning accompanying the front and could produce for a short duration very gusty winds for the east slopes of the Cascades and into the Columbia Basin. The best chance for showers and thunderstorms with this front will be across the north, north of Highway 2. The threat of showers and thunderstorms will decrease in the evening as the low moves into southern Alberta. Tuesday will be the coolest day of the week with valley temperatures in the 70s to lower 80s. Wednesday through Saturday: The low keeps moving east as a shortwave ridge builds along the west side of the state. Wednesday temperatures will remain below average in the wake of the cold front. There is the potential for some additional showers and thunderstorms along the canadian border in the afternoon. Otherwise we dry out. The ridge shifts east over eastern WA and north ID Thursday as the next closed low begins to move out of the Gulf of Alaska and into British Columbia. There are model differences as to how far south to bring the low which could have implications for next weekend. For now kept the forecast dry and temperatures near average. /Nisbet && .AVIATION... 00Z TAFS: Windy conditions expected into the early evening. Wind gusts of 20-30 kts are expected through 03Z. Gusts will taper off at most TAf sites through the evening as the atmosphere decouples. The exception will be at KEAT where gusts of 20-25 kts are expected through 09Z before pressure gradients weaken into Sunday morning. A fire burning in the Upper Columbia Basin will spread smoke into the Spokane/Coeur d`Alene corridor this evening. No visibility restrictions are expected at the surface as smoke is expected to be at mid level in the atmosphere. /SVH && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...

As champions of diversity and reason, we here at the Second Life Safari have always sought to expand our virtual horizons beyond the confines of a single game. Neither rain nor snow nor permaban will keep the griefer goons from making their rounds.
Luckily for us, there is no shortage of content, for there are more virtual world video games every day. Like moths not only drawn but also birthed and burned by the flame, an apparently endless horde of hirsute homebodies willingly waste their days away in pixellated purgatory. This is nothing new among the neckbeard set, but no one has ever seriously tried to recruit "regular" people into this. I think it had something to do with "real life", but I'm not sure, since I was too busy being deafened by Dragonforce to hear it.
But then the ever edgy MTV started up its avante-garde "Virtual Laguna Beach" project. Based on the There.com platform--a standard so shitty that it makes Second Life look ravishing by comparison--Virtual Laguna Beach was created for the sole purpose of virtually living the fabricated lifestyle of reality television, which is enough confluence of illusion to make Orwell mambo in his grave. Now, I spent most of my high school career furtively masturbating in the bathrooms, so I can't say for sure, but I seem to remember that the type of people who immersed themselves in MTV culture were less interested in video games and more concerned with hastening their descent into the local crack den.
But who am I to judge? My idle thoughts rarely settle on the subject of women, whose clothed company I find quite unfulfilling. Luckily, Web 2.0 superstar sashad123 uploaded an actual television commercial for Virtual Laguna Beach for our perusal.
Oh man, that's awesome! I want to chat with hot babes online! But alas, I lack the courage to converse with anyone whose breasts are larger than pudding cups, which rules out all the girls and half the guys on the Internet.
Thankfully, a few forum goons are braver than I, and managed to chat up not just any virtual vixen, but a Laguna Beach Lifeguard! Lifeguards are their moderators: the Maiar of their multiverse. They are hired to keep order in a PG-13 rated game, both in-world and on their forums.
One particular goon, operating with all the seductive suavity of an aging Jesuit, managed to curry the favor of one of these lustful lifeguards. This is his story.
I was betrayed by the bernio bros, the cougars, and this guy from back page I hired to keep me from jumping out a window at the DNC.
TOTAL WRECK - crazy-eyed hound is covered in cobwebs, has a vespiary on back, graffiti on side and savage thirst for boat fuel. Frankly, I'm in over my head. He's in room 115 at Motel 6, yours free. 555-2851
A dubious allegorical romp through a Fahey-filled world of Christly hackers and eyeliner tattoo!
Hillary Clinton has a new book! Here are some photo-shops of her, for you to enjoy.
Thirty games and a novel piece of hardware for sixty dollars? This is an insult to my honor.
Second Life Safari highlights a magical and mystical adventure through the bowels of the Internet. We take a look behind the scenes of "Second Life," and present to you the things all other media outlets are too embarrassed to show. Social networking hits another new low, and can only be seen in Second Life Safari.

I understand the localization part of ICU - date, time and currency formats, collation, etc. When it comes to message translation, I see people stating that ICU does not provide functionality for message translation - check for example this SOF question.
However, when checking ICU docs, we find that it provides resources bundles, and the documentation does seem to hint to using them for message translation:
In PHP intl documentation for example:
Localized software products often require sets of data that are to be customized depending on current locale, e.g.: messages, labels, formatting patterns. ICU resource mechanism allows to define sets of resources that the application can load on locale basis, while accessing them in unified locale-independent fashion.
The documentation here: http://userguide.icu-project.org/locale/resources describes functionality similar to a key-value store, with text sources that can be compiled into binary format.
My question is whether ICU resource bundles (including the access functionality and the storage format) are meant for - or it is part of their purpose - to be used for message translation - for example like gettext and .po files are. If such, is there any resources or tutorials that discuss this usage.
Or a rewording: in its design goals, is the ICU meant to be used in conjunction with a separate message translation facility, or does it strive to provide such functionality itself, or is it that both options are possible.

We are coming to Cape May for the first time for a long weekend late August. We have a room at the Mad ave beach club. Is it really too far from the fun stuff? We dont want to be in noisy accomodation so we thought this might be a good place for us to stay, but i dont want it to seem like a chore every time we want to go eat or enjoy the fun of Cape May. I understand it is a walk to the beach also. We will have a little cart to transport our beach gear. It's a little under $200/night which is good for us.
Any thoughts? I dont see any recent reviews on TA.

I have a multi-threaded python application where threads are spawned off to do various tasks. This application has been working great for months, but recently I've run into a problem.
One of the threads starts a python
subprocess.Popen object which is running an intensive data copy command.
copy = subprocess.Popen(cmd, stdout = subprocess.PIPE, stderr = subprocess.STDOUT, preexec_fn = os.setsid, shell = False, close_fds = True)
if copy.wait():
raise Exception("Unable to copy!")
While the copy command is running, the entire application eventually bogs down, with none of my other threads running for minutes at a time. Once
copy finishes, everything resumes where it left off.
I'm trying to figure out how to prevent this from happening. My best theory ATM is that it has something to do with the way my kernel is scheduling processes. I added the call to
setsid() to get the copy process scheduled separately from the main python app, but this has no effect.
I'm assuming all the
copy.wait() function does is a
waitpid(). Is it possible that the call takes a long time, during which that one thread holds the GIL? If so, how do I prevent/deal with this? What can I do to debug this further?

New Gold Coast Mayor pledges to build cruise ship terminal - fast!
by Jeni Bone on 1 May 2012
Gold Coast Seaway .. ©
Hoping to cash in on cruise industry annual growth of 34%, newly minted Mayor of the Gold Coast, Tom Tate says he will ignore years of political sabotage and delays with an audacious bid to build a $30 million cruise ship terminal at The Spit in his first term.
In the days prior to last Saturday's election, the affluent business man unveiled plans to build the terminal by 2014 with the financial support of Premier Campbell Newman.
The terminal, to be completed in 30 months, would likely be positioned off the southern seawall and include four 'floating' sections.
Under Tate's financial model, the State Government would contribute $15 million with the council adding $10 million. An additional $5 million would be set aside for contingency costs.
The Gold Coast City Council would obtain a lease on Crown land and operate the facility, cashing in on any financial return.
'There is political will to do this. With Campbell Newman at the helm and as another civil engineer, we both know that we can make this happen,' he said.
Tate said the two-storey terminal would allow cruise ships to re-stock with Gold Coast produce, adding extra value to the economic boost to tourism.
There would also be scope to construct a second docking area adjoining the proposed site, to allow an extra cruise ship to tie up alongside during peak seasons.
The terminal would be built and installed by Gold Coast companies, as a further boost to the local economy.
'A conservative figure of economic return is $25 million a year. There is a very good chance you could get your money returned in 18 months. Financially, it's a cracker!' said the city's new Mayor.
New economic analysis by Deloitte Access Economics shows the Australian cruise industry contributed $828.1 million to the national economy in 2010-2011 – an increase of more than 44 per cent on its contribution of $576.6 million in 2007-2008.
According to the study commissioned by Carnival Australia the total economic contribution of cruising is highest in NSW ($370.9 million in 2010-11, forecast to be $1.128 billion by 2019-20) and Queensland ($166.4 million in 2010-11, forecast to be $340.8 million in 2019-20).
Tate said he would be guided by the Gold Coast Waterway Authority in identifying a suitable site near the Seaway. He said he hoped there would be no resistance from the Save Our Spit community organisation that scuttled the Beattie Government's plans to build a terminal.
'The guiding principle is that The Spit will remain open to the public and remain accessible to the public for the enjoyment of all Gold Coasters,' he added.
Locals opposed to the proposal, including the grass roots action group, 'Save Our Spit', vehemently accuse the 'boating industry' of greed and self-interest for pursuing both the cruise ship terminal and superyacht marina in the Broadwater.
Referring to a previous attempt to develop around The Spit, one member of Save Our Spit wrote on its site that any development will harm the natural environment 'where today thousands of people enjoy picnicking, swimming, fishing, jet-skiing, and just plain relaxing. Once developed, this can never be recovered.
'Commercially it's a no-brainer. Cruise ship occupants do not spend locally, they have already paid for their meals on board. At best they may go to Sea World for the day, or catch a cab to be touted in Surfers, all this at an enormous cost to tax and rate-payers.'

Ashby wouldn't be drawn on whether Team New Zealand had started their AC50 build, with July being the usual start of what is usually a five-month build and commissioning period for an end of December launch.

Protected by The Grand Traverse Regional Land Conservancy (GTRLC), owned by Peninsula Township, managed by the GTRLC.
The Pelizzari Natural Area's diversity and beauty lend itself to an easy love. Its location, just north of Traverse City amidst relatively dense development, makes it a back yard park for many as well as a destination worth traveling to. While Pelizarri was once farmed and remnants of that heritage are evident, there are also glimpses into what the Old Mission Peninsula looked like before farmers and subdivisions took up residence on this 18 mile peninsula between East and West Grand Traverse Bays. The nearly 3 miles of trail meanders through wide open fields & former orchards, quiet upland forests, and cool lowlands with giant hemlocks. Visitors are likely to encounter several bird species and may even catch a glimpse of the resident fox.
The story of Pelizzari Natural Area's protection is an incredible tale spanning opportunities lost and seized, intrepid perseverance and an unwavering dedication to the land.
GTRLC, in partnership with Peninsula Township, is working to enhance the property's recreational opportunities while improving and maintaining the property's overall health and environmental integrity. This involves designing, building and maintaining trails, strategically planting native trees and shrubs, as well as removing invasive species.Endow the care of this property

LONDON—Now, and for several years to come, the United States will have the largest share of the global VSaaS market and the most common application will be in the commercial space, according to a Technavio report on the global VSaaS market from 2016 to 2020.
LONDON—Between 2016 and 2020 the residential market for smoke detectors will grow, according to a recent Technavio report, and technological trends in the market will shift dramatically.
LONDON—Technavio's latest report on the global connected home security system market provides an analysis of four emerging trends impacting the connected home security system market through 2020.
LONDON—The global and North American markets for biometric access control systems will see double-digit growth rates from 2015 to 2019, according to a recent Technavio report.
LONDON—The wireless video surveillance market will grow across the globe, according to market research firm Technavio, and IoT and drones will play a big role in that growth.
I couple weeks back, I wrote an article on the perimeter security market—primarily Technavio's projection that it will rise between 2015 and 2019. Jack DeMao, the CEO for Electric Guard Dog, called me today to talk about the report, how it matches up with his company, and trends from his side of the industry.
Electric Guard Dog offers solar-powered electric security fences, designed to "deter people at the fence line." His interest was piqued when he saw exactly that style of perimeter security mentioned by Technavio as a trend in perimeter security.
DeMao has seen a rise in perimeter security first hand, he told me, citing between a consistent growth at his company, year after year. "I would say that people have greater interest to keep the bad guys out at the fence line," he told me.
A new trend for his business, he said, is more IoT-type requests; "Like most security solutions, [customers] want to be able to turn their fence [and] their security systems on and off with their smartphones, and get information as to what's going on at their site."
Electric Guard Dog started offering smartphone abilities two or three years ago, DeMao estimated. At first, between 10 and 20 percent took this option. By 2015, that percentage has jumped to around 90 percent, he said.
LONDON—Technavio predicts growth in North America's perimeter security market to be about $5.7 billion by 2019, up from $4.1 billion in 2014, a 39 percent increase.
LONDON—The PSIM market in North America will grow from $3.6 billion in 2015 to around $4.9 billion in 2019, according to a new TechNavio report.
LONDON—The global physical security market will more than double in value to more than $100 billion between 2014 and 2019, according to a report from TechNavio. North America will remain the largest contributor to the market.
LONDON—The global mass transit security market will grow 76 percent from 2013 to 2018 according to a TechNavio report that assesses the value of this market through examining surveillance, infrastructure, and identification.

The Deposition of Father McGreevyby Brian O'Doherty
View All Available Formats & Editions
In a London pub in the 1950s, editor William Maginn is intrigued by a reference to the reputedly shameful demise of a remote mountain village in Kerry, Ireland, where he was born. Maginn returns to Kerry and uncovers an astonishing tale: both the account of the destruction of a place and a way of life which once preserved Ireland's ancient traditions, and the tragedy of an increasingly isolated village where the women mysteriously die-leaving the priest, Father McGreevy, to cope with insoluble problems. Looking back in time, the book traces how, as World War II rages through Europe, McGreevy struggles to preserve what remains of his parish, and struggles against the rough mountain elements, the grief and superstitions of his people, and the growing distrust in the town below. The Deposition of Father McGreevy is a remarkable story, and a gripping exploration of both the locus of misfortune and the nature of evil. Rich in the details of Irish lore and life, its narrative evokes both a time and a place with the accuracy of a keen, unsentimental eye, and renders its characters with heartfelt depth.

Read an Excerpt
Chapter One
You'll have to let me tell it in my own way, or I won't talk to you at all. I'll be as honest as I can in this deposition, and the word can't help but bring to mind the Deposition of Our Lord Himself from the Cross. For with every word out of my mouth, it's putting me up on the cross you are, make no mistake about that.
Here I am suspended from saying Mass by the Church to which I gave my life as my mother's only son. And think not of my agony but of my mother's pain, a pain she shares with Mary herself for her only Son. If it's penance you're talking about, penance speaks of a guilt that before God I do not feel in my heart. For the circumstances were such that I do more than forgive myself. I take humble pride in the fact that I kept a Christian community together in its extremity, and prevented it, through the grace of God as conveyed by his sacraments, from falling into barbarity. That should not be forgotten.
Paddy MacArdle's son, when he was here at the police station the other day, made reference to "my role in this degraded nightmare." I wouldn't have expected that from the son of a man who is a distant cousin of my mother's and a decent man from the day he was born. But I can expect little understanding from lawyers of every stripe, including Paddy's son, now that he has come back from Dublin to enlighten us. Justice wears a blindfold so that she can't see lies and falsehood overcome truth on her scales. The scales drop from my own eyes when I see the hatred offered me from this town, let alone the great worldoutside where the newspapers say that I've disgraced the cloth, giving comfort to every enemy this country ever had by proving that we are a degraded people. Truly, this breaks my heart. For if young MacArdle spoke about a nightmare, the nightmare was not up in the mountains. It is here, around me at every turn. That village up there was as decent a community of God-fearing people as you would find on a long day's march.
How did it start, you ask me, as many have, but never a moment does anyone believe my answer, or if they do, I can tell from their faces that no explanation of mine will ever change their opinion of what went on. When Bishop O'Farrell, God rest him, sent me up there thirty years ago, I swear he forgot me the instant I passed out of his sight. Nor did he or anyone else pay much heed to the souls in my charge, only when they came down for hurling matches and fairs and the like. And never a great welcome for them either, so dark were they in face and feature. There was talk about how they wouldn't return a greeting. But how can you give back what was never offered, when all they met were suspicious looks? Only one shop in the whole town would give them credit. On fair day, everyone turned up their noses at their few sheep and cattle. Maybe they weren't fattened up like others, but there's little grazing up on the mountain. I remember those young fellows lounging outside Moriarty's pub who never did an honest day's work, jeering at old Paddy, God rest him, when he tried to sell his cow in Irish. They hadn't had their ears boxed enough at National School.
It was the terrible winter of '39--only two years ago but it seems an age--that began it, as you well know. We were so cut off we didn't see the face of a stranger until May. Maybe there were some attempts at relief, I'll grant you. When the men came down to the town that summer, I'll guarantee that it wasn't for love of you. And you know the welcome they got.
Why did we stay up there? Why does anyone stay where they are? Because their fathers were there before them, and their fathers before that. Do I have to explain that to anyone who makes a living from a bit of ground, if living you can call it? Do you ask that of the people on the Blaskets? Oh, indeed there would have been a great welcome for us if we moved down here! There are times when I find it hard to live by my vows of charity when I have been offered none, even by the ministers of God Himself, in Whose charity and grace I will trust until the day I die, and may that not be far distant.
It was that first winter that laid the groundwork for it, make no mistake about that. The wind was cruel that winter. Buried in snow we were. We never saw another soul but ourselves from dawn till dusk. But the calamity the Lord visited upon us passes understanding. It was Maire Rua who went first, the only fiery head among all those dark ones. We put her by the hob for the heat and she died there, where she'd spent most of her waking hours. The cold was such you could hear your own bones clicking against each other. We kept the fire burning as best we could. The turf was sodden so it gave out more smoke than heat. Not a one of us could tell what was wrong with her, except that she couldn't breathe right. I'll never forget the terrible look of concentration on her face trying to keep the spark of life going. Near the end, she didn't know Muiris--her husband--at all, though he never left her. The women gave her inhalations of honey and spirits, though where they got the honey is a mystery. You'd never suspect what comes out of hiding when matters are desperate. It's easy to say now they stayed too close to her.
Both she and the fire died in the night, and no sooner was she stiff and cold than one of the other women complained of a pain in her side that wouldn't leave her. The next night another of the women--Josie Mahon--was laboring away with her breath. There was no way to get help. The snow was up to your shoulders, and you couldn't see the trace of a path. The whole mountain-side looked so different under the snow. You couldn't tell where one man's patch of ground ended and another's began. When the wind wasn't blowing there was a silence like I've never heard. Not a sound, only when a cow or a sheep stirred.
We couldn't break a bit of ground to bury the poor woman. We cleared a patch where we always buried our dead, but the spade struck the ice beneath the snow as if it were made of iron. The earth didn't want our dead, no more than the sky above gave a welcome to the living. As we stood there, the sky over us was the color of lead and it seemed heavy enough to press on our shoulders. It's the right of everyone to bury their dead, and to take consolation from it. But there was no dignity in that attempt at all, no way of setting the poor woman in her grave. Little did we know what we had was a luxury compared to what followed.
I said the prayers for the dead, the body lying there on the side of the hill in that makeshift coffin. We took the boards from old Matt's barn, old Matt O'Connor who died ten years ago this winter and well out of it he is. There we were, with the dark sky above us, the earth white as a ghost, as if it were giving out the light. The only dark spots were ourselves and the coffin lying on the snow, with the poor woman inside doubly stiff from death and the cold. The shame of leaving her out in wind and weather made us attack the ice and make a kind of ledge for the coffin. Then we half-covered it with snow, hoping to freeze it in, and with a few branches we had broken from the trees. What trees, you may well ask, since you could count them on the fingers of your hand, so scarce and scalded are they by the wind, which bends them to the East. Sure enough, the wind had whipped the branches away the next morning. But at least we did have the wake, if you want to call it a wake.
The women prepared the body and laid it out with her scapulars on her chest and her rosary beads in her hands. And there were enough spirits to warm us, though I left before the spirits moved them to gossip and singing. Of course, you could never stop Old Biddy talking. They weren't great talkers, except when they had a drop in or a story to tell. As for Muiris, he said not a word. What his thoughts were then, only he himself knows. But before the whiskey and the porter got going, the women set up a keening that seemed to have no end. The sound went out over the darkness outside, a darkness that pinched those short days into no more than a blink. If you blinked yourself, the day would be half over and another night upon us, so dark you couldn't even see a glimmer of snow.
I never cared much for the keening. It always unsettled me. You rarely hear it nowadays. The sound would frighten a scarecrow. It has madness and pain in it and exaltation too, as if its agony was a hurtful pleasure, like that of John of the Cross and Saint Teresa and other saints you could mention. If you've never heard it, you've no cause to seek it out. It opens a void in me that prayer can't fill, a void through which the spirit drops endlessly. That sound, rising and falling, those throat spasms putting a hitch in it before the breath urges it forward again, makes you question your beliefs, as if Christ never died on the Cross and all we have is a wilderness beyond reason. It brings back a wildness that the Holy Mother in her wisdom was always eager to moderate but not chastise, for it speaks to a part of our souls that precedes even the birth of Christ. I take my lesson from the Church itself, which acknowledges that what is deep in the people's minds is dangerous to displace. But it can be joined with the true teaching and adapted to God's plan.
The keening did not console me as it consoled them. It always made me a little uneasy, and I felt far from the Diocesean seminary where all those farmers' youngest sons were preparing to give their lives to the Lord. My mother made a bigger sacrifice with her only son--working herself to the bone to ordain me, selling her little farm and taking on work in the town she should never have looked at twice. What must she think now, close to ninety, to see me without the right to say Mass? When I said the words of the burial service at Maire Rua's grave, earth to earth, ashes to ashes, de profundus ad te clamavi, it seemed to me that the Lord was mocking us, for the earth wouldn't yield a scrap of soil, burnished by the winter with a shield of ice and the snow over that. It wasn't too long before there were four more coffins out there beside her, and the last of them you could hardly call a coffin at all.
* * *
That sickness was like a plague and we prayed to the Lord to have mercy. It would begin with a weariness that the cold didn't help, and then the breathing would labor, like a bellows that had to be pushed in and out, when normally you don't give a thought to breathing. Then the throat would hurt so that swallowing was like swallowing a knife. Then you could see them take on a shade of blue that was the shadow of death. We all got a touch of those throats, except for the children, mark you. Strange indeed.
Sometimes it started with the throat, and sometimes with the breathing. Whatever way it started, it went the same way. Breath is life to us all, and that life was slowly squeezed out of them. Some had trouble breathing in and others had trouble breathing out, and some, most painful of all, could find no ease either way. It was a torture to witness. Sometimes, I tried to match my breath with theirs and had to give up. But they had to go on, and go on they did, according to their natures. Each of us finds our own way to the next life. They were women of great faith and an example to the living. The Lord received them with open arms, you can be sure of that. For there was not a stain on them, who had never done anything but honor their Savior and keep His commandments, minding their children and waiting on their husbands hand and foot, dragging themselves from one task to the next from dawn till dusk, year after year. It was the children that caused them the most grief, for they didn't want to leave them, and they told me a hundred times between breaths to take care of them and make sure their fathers took care of them. What could I do but promise on my solemn oath? And you will see how that turned out.
I had trouble with the confessions when some of them were far gone, for they hadn't enough breath to spare for a whisper. Their eyes would fix on me with a stare I can see to this day, and they made their penance with the eyes and a nod as best they could. It was because of sin that death came into the world, and yet having heard their confessions over the years, I knew how sinless they were, apart from the usual gossip and white lies. It was a comfort to me as well as to the dying to give them the last sacraments, to anoint each separate sense. "Through this Holy Unction and His most tender mercy, may the Lord pardon thee for whatever faults thou hast committed by sight," and then anointing the other senses, "by hearing, taste, touch, and smell." Though what sins are available through taste and smell is a mystery to me. But when I anoint each avenue of sense with the Holy Oils, God's sanctifying Grace flows along them almost visibly to the spirit within. It seems to calm and soothe them, no matter how harsh their torment. If unbelievers should ever doubt the power of grace, all they need do is to come with me on my rounds to the sick and dying and they will see for themselves. For the oils of Extreme Unction--I had trouble warming them in the bitter cold--heal as much as they reconcile those on the edge of eternity to God's will.
When I anoint those suffering eyes and lips and ears with the oils, I can often tell what God has in store. Sometimes I learn their fate from the eyes, when they look at me with a new peace, but from a distance as if their spirits had moved through an invisible door. I know then that they will die as surely as if God has whispered it in my ear. It's after that they begin the long hard work of climbing to heaven as they slide downhill, a paradox surely, for the body is returning to the earth, while the spirit ascends to its Maker, to be reunited on Judgment Day. When the Lord wants them for Himself, nothing will change His mind.
But sometimes I see in their eyes a peace that reaches out towards me and the living, and they sleep and sleep as their spirit fastens on to their bodies again, as if putting on a new garment, as indeed they are. For the body is the temple of the Holy Ghost and no matter how ravaged with disease or accident, it should always be treated with the dignity due to it. The hands seem to be a station on the way to eternity. And sometimes on the way back, if that's the way it's to be. Either way, getting better or worse, they look at the backs of their hands as if they belonged to a stranger, one examining and rubbing the other. Some say the hands pluck at the bedclothes when they're going to die, but I've never seen that. I've seen them limp as two geese at times. And I've seen them lift themselves to the eyes for a close look, dangling as if the wrists were broken. But there wasn't any coming back for these poor women. The pillows got bigger as their faces shrunk to nothing, with noses like beaks. The rest of them melted away like a candle. Their arms were sticks and when we lifted them, they didn't weigh more than a child. I was almost demented running from place to place without a soul to help. That housekeeper of mine, Old Biddy McGurk, was in her element. You'd almost think she enjoyed the dying.
The hardest thing of all is at the end, when they lie still as a waxwork, then draw a breath that startles you out of your wits, especially in the dead of night with the candles casting shadows. Then the long delay until the next gasp, and you say to yourself--there's life there yet. The body won't let the tired spirit go. So you wait for the next gasp. It comes, as unbidden as a hiccup, and then everything is still as if time had stopped. That's when you fancy you can feel eternity. And sometimes as time stretches out, you feel you could take it in your hands and pull back the past, recover the healthy woman previous to the poor soul giving her last gasp.
So there I was, in the long nights of November and December, measuring the length of time until the arrival of the next breath, or next to last, or last. The interval becomes longer and longer, until you don't breathe yourself for fear you might disturb the passage of the spirit to the next world as it rises off the body and appears before the throne of God. Some say they can see it leave, see a shudder in the air or a glow gone so quickly you think it's inside your own eye. Then the body is left behind to become as solid as the table or the chair, and the worn face, no matter how old, has a memory of its youth. Then all the pain seems justified, and the anguish of witnessing it eased, I don't know why. That's the moment of relief before the pain of loss.
Five women died that way; except, would you believe me if I tell you, the oldest one of all, that Old Biddy. I've had her for the past five years. She was the only one who'd come up and housekeep for me. I was never that happy with her. But I suppressed my irritation with charitable thoughts. Who else would take her? She was always a great one for the herbs and cures. More than once I had to put a stop to her mischief. When all was well, there was no great harm in it. But when the plague was upon us, the men would as soon turn to her as to me. Inscrutable indeed are the ways of the Lord, who took to Him five women who couldn't be spared, and left one old woman who could. Then one of the men died, old Paddy Meagher, who was always ailing and short of breath with his heart. We thought our time had come. We put him out with the others.
I missed the moment of Sarah Donoghue's passing--Jamesy's mother. Can you imagine this village--if you call a few houses placed every which way a village--in the arctic heart of a terrible winter, with men here and there sitting beside their sick wives, and in Jamesy's case, by his mother's bed, all dying at different rates of departure? I was tramping through the snow on a path of my own making, for I recognised my own footsteps made that morning, when I heard a shout out of Jamesy Donoghue (he was a strong young fellow whose voice would wake the dead).
In I ran and he was holding his mother in his arms and weeping like a child. All the more shocking to me, since these men appeared to have so few passions--they were deep within and never a sign of them except when they were well on. I went down on my knees to start a rosary but Jamesy did nothing but rock her back and forth. It took two of us to release his grip and sit him down. He covered his face with his hands and sometimes looked at his empty hands as if a part of him had been removed, as indeed it was. His mother had kept a tight rein on him. He paid no attention to his young brother who kept pulling on him, a young boy of eight, Tomas, his name was, a bright young fellow and manly enough. Not a tear out of the boy, but he had a face on him between fright and wonder. I haven't spoken of the children at all, but that's another story and a sadder story was never told.
The fathers had a rough way with them so as not to spoil them for the hard life ahead. Apart from Thady's sickly lad, they were the hardy children of mountain people who don't complain even when the earth turns against them, and the earth was never as unforgiving and cruel as it was that winter. There were only seven children left. For when they reached the age of fourteen or fifteen, they got restless and many's the quarrel that would stop when I came in with my God save all here. They didn't want to stay up the mountain, though some did, those whose parents had a better hold on them. Once they got to be young men and women they were off down the mountain on Sundays to the dances at Skibbereen and as far off as Tralee. You wouldn't see sight nor light of some of the young men for three days, which I can tell you didn't please their fathers, who had to mind the animals themselves. On a farm every day is a work day.

Hello! I am a complete and utter newbie. In fact I didn't even set up the blog myself - a friend (now unavailable!) set it up for me.
This morning I thought I'd see if I could change the web address of the site by just typing a new address into the URL boxes in the "settings" section. Now the original site has lost all formatting and when I try to log in it tries to redirect me to the new URL and so I just get the message "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage".
I have read a lot of threads on this forum about how to fix this, but the "changing the site URL" link that people post doesn't help me because I can't log in!
People have also mentioned something about phpMyAdmin, but I don't know what that is. I tried typing that in at the end of the web address in the address bar, but that didn't seem to help. You see what a newbie I am!
The original address was http://www.mrandmrsstjohn.com and the address I tried to change it to was http://www.mrandmrsstjohndiscussionblog.com.
I'd be so grateful for any assistance.

Patient Comments: Flu Vaccination - Side Effects
Did you have any side effects from your flu vaccination?
Comment from: 55-64 Male (Patient) Published: October 06
I had the flu vaccine for the first time in my life on September 28th as suggested by my doctor. Since that day I have experienced severe muscle pain, especially in my left knee, the same side I received my shot. My wrists, ankles and muscles are aching severely. I felt perfectly fine prior to this flu shot. It has now been 7 days and no relief yet. I have called my doctor and waiting for his return call. I hope this is temporary; at least the flu eventually goes away!
Comment from: OLDFIELD, 65-74 Male (Patient) Published: October 01
I received the senior extra strength flu shot on 2/29/15. My arm around the shot site really hurt. During the night the fingers on my right hand were hard to bend, with excruciating pain. Today one day later I am sweating and the lymph nodes under the right arm hurt. I ache and have general malaise and will just lie around today.
Comment from: michelle, 55-64 Female (Caregiver) Published: October 01
I received the flu shot on Friday and this is Tuesday and I have what feels like a full blown case of the flu; fever, chills, aches, and fatigue. I am a nurse and am required to have this shot. I don't know what I will do next year, I have to work but I do not want to go through this again. I hope I feel better soon as I have to take care of patients when I feel like I am sicker than they are. Before my shot, I was going to the gym and being very active. Now it is all I can do to drive home from work.
Comment from: Annie52, 55-64 Female (Patient) Published: June 09
I had the flu shot as prescribed by my general physician (although I very seldom get a cold or flu). However this time, within a week I was so sick, sore throat, runny nose, sneezing, aches and pains and coughing up so much mucus. I was in bed for 5 days before I felt well enough to get up! No I do not smoke. I wonder if I was run down to get so sick after finally having the flu shot.
Comment from: Flip, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: June 01
I had the flu vaccination shot on the 14/4 and ended up as a result, having an adverse reaction. Pulse rate 137, SpO2 92 percent, temperature 38, I have rigor, am unable to breathe and have aches across shoulders and down arms. My eyes are exuding green muck. Within 30 hours I had a heart attack! I have had previous reactions before, only to be told it was coincidental. It is not! I have still had some of the medicos state the same this time, but am fighting to have the truth acknowledged. I am not saying don't have it if it hasn't affected you. I'm saying they need to start acknowledging the side effects instead of covering it up!
Comment from: 55-64 Female (Caregiver) Published: March 12
Comment from: Mama WOLF, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: February 10
I had flu shot a couple months ago and now wish I had gotten the flu. My left arm is in extreme pain with swelling of joints. The back of neck has stopped hurting but my arm is not ok. I will go to a doctor soon if it does not clear up.
Comment from: Elliecar, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: January 21
Both me and my mum went for our flu jabs, neither of us has had any problems before this year. Within a week we both took extremely ill with high temperature, and chest infections. After 3 weeks I felt better, but my mum who is 70 got worse by the day, she suffered extreme pain in her back, both legs and arms, eventually her temperature was so high she was taken to the hospital. Now 3 months on she is severely handicapped, in extreme pain, on morphine, and a whole load of other medications, can't walk or barely lift a cup to her mouth, Now she has been told she has IBS (irritable bowel syndrome), and damage to her spine which they can't find the reason for. She is in and out of hospital getting scans and all sorts of tests, but they still don't know the cause or how to treat her apart from giving her pain relief, which isn't helping much; even the morphine is not helping the pain. Until the jab she was a very active woman who walked everywhere, went dancing and was a happy person. She is now a shell of her formal self, I would never get that jab again and would not wish this on anyone. Please think twice before getting it. So many people who have serious issues with it can't possibly all be wrong.

Well what the fuck, I can't sort search results by date or view count anymore.
I never complained about layout changes before, but now I'm kinda pissed.
Mine changed to a new layout much earlier (last last week) for some reason…?

It's been slowly let out to everyone on Youtube. I've had it for about awhile now and I'm not complaining.
I don't even care as long as I can still listen to music/watch videos.

I got a beta of it 3 months ago.
How come they always make things more shite?
Stop bitching about it you can't do shit and you will use it.

Same, though I do like the old one better.
P.S. It almost never changes on mobile devices.
