MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - Montgomery Public Schools officials are
looking at changing the system's accreditation process in order to
cut costs.
Currently, individual MPS schools go through a review process by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools every five years to ensure they are meeting seven accreditation standards.
The system hopes to start using a districtwide accreditation process that would reduce its cost for assessments but create more accountability in the district.
MPS executive director Margaret Allen tells the Montgomery Advertiser in a Sunday story that the process has started but implementation will require the effort of all stakeholders.
With the change the district will spend a maximum of $25,00 every five years compared to current costs of at least $46,000.

Waitaki Boys' High School
deputy rector John Mattisson has a wheel-clamp - and he is
not afraid to use it.
The device, introduced this term, is used when a pupil parks
a vehicle which he has failed to register with the school, on
its grounds. Pupils wishing to park vehicles on school
grounds also have to sign a contract which outlines
acceptable behaviour.
A vehicle is also clamped if a pupil fails to abide by the
conditions of the contract, which include obeying road rules.
A vehicle would remain clamped until the pupil paid a $25
"unclamping" fee.
Rector Paul Jackson said he had used a clamp at his previous
school, Marlborough Boys' High School, after seeing the
method used successfully in some Australian schools.
He and his staff had a "moral responsibility" to protect
pupils and the initiative was instituted to prevent them from
"taking the law into their own hands".
A pupil having a vehicle accident on the way to or from
school, or at lunchtime, was a rector's worst nightmare, and,
in that circumstance, having a record of each vehicle would
be of great benefit, he said.
Early in the term, the clamp had been in Mr Mattisson's
office window as a deterrent. The tactic worked, with 51 cars
registered within a matter of days.
Mr Mattisson said vehicles parked outside school grounds were
exempt. The scheme made it easier for the school to identify
the owner of each vehicle and, as a result, how each vehicle
was legally allowed to be used.
The threat had worked so well the clamp had still not been
"It's in pristine condition at this stage," Mr Madison said.

Prep seasons winding down
The 10th week of Washington high school football means, in some cases, a last league or non-league game and, in others, a play-in game for a state playoff berth.
It's the latter that holds the most fascination tonight, with the 4A game's beginning as Lewis and Clark, the Greater Spokane League's third-place team, facing Pasco, top seed from the Columbia Basin league.
There is also a few Idaho state playoff games tonight, most notably Coeur d'Alene at Lake City. You can find out more information at Greg Lee's blog and Mike Vlahovich's blog.

|Proshares Short Dow30 (DOG) Enters Oversold Territory
ETF Channel Staff - Thursday, September 13, 4:01 PMIn trading on Thursday, shares of the Proshares Short Dow30 ETF (DOG) entered into oversold territory, changing hands as low as $33.69 per share. We define oversold territory using the Relative Strength Index, or RSI, which is a technical analysis indicator used to measure momentum on a scale of zero to 100. A stock is considered to be oversold if the RSI reading falls below 30.
In the case of Proshares Short Dow30, the RSI reading has hit 28.9 � by comparison, the RSI reading for the S&P 500 is currently 75.3.
A bullish investor could look at DOG's 28.9 reading as a sign that the recent heavy selling is in the process of exhausting itself, and begin to look for entry point opportunities on the buy side.
Looking at a chart of one year performance (below), DOG's low point in its 52 week range is $33.69 per share, with $46.63 as the 52 week high point � that compares with a last trade of $33.77. Proshares Short Dow30 shares are currently trading down about 1.5% on the day.

Return to last checkpoint

Defeating Radec
- Radec is difficult, but not impossible to kill, especially if you are attempting to get the "Demonslayer" trophy for killing him in twenty minutes. Do not worry about him until you get the cinematic where he says "I guess you want to make it personal!" In the beginning he sends hordes of Helghast troops at you. Just dig in and kill them all. You will be on the ground floor for about three waves of troops. Then the doors on the side will open, allowing you to get to the balcony. Note: Ammunition is limited on the balcony. Make your shots count. When you go up onto the balcony, there are two flamethrower Helghast waiting. Afterwards there will be two waves of infantry then a mixed group of infantry and knife wielding Helghast officers. Watch out, because when you are on the balcony they will come up from both sides. Take care of them first, then focus on the floor troops. After this wave you are greeted with RPG troops on the far wall of the room. Take them out, then go back to the floor troops. After about six waves you get another cinematic of Radec. You are now back on the ground level. He now phases in and out of invisibility, and shows up beside you and tries to knife you. Keep moving and shooting at him as he shows himself. After hitting him enough times, he retreats to the stairs in front of you. Keep shooting, and when he goes down the battle is over.
- After he makes the comment about "making it personal", there will be waves of troops that keep appearing. There is no real strategy here other than "run and gun". When it gets down to just you and Radec, and he keeps turning invisible, stock up on ammunition (rifle recommended). Go up to the balcony and put your back in a corner. Radec will not be able to sneak up on you. You only have to cover left and right. You will hear him appear and see a flash of light to indicate which direction he is coming from. Occasionally he will appear on the ground floor. Peek over the rail and shoot him a few times, then get back to the corner. After a short while he will appear on the stairs. Finish him off and you will have defeated him.

Optimist's Shakespeare: Try it, you'll like it
Two weeks ago, director Tom Reed had fully intended to make another round of cuts to Shakespeare's "As You Like It" — slimming the run time to just over two hours — before Optimist Theatre opened its production in Riverwest's Kadish Park. Am I ever glad that he had second thoughts.
When Optimist's press preview performance ended Thursday night — two hours and 45 minutes after it began — my aching body was screaming for a seat cushion and the ground on which I was sitting was wet with dew. »Read Full Article
Listen to free advance stream of new Civil Wars album
The Civil Wars' much-anticipated self-titled sophomore album will be released Tuesday, but fans can take a free advance listen via iTunes at this link now. One of the most buzz-generating new groups of the past few years, Joy Williams and John Paul White dazzled critics and audiences alike with the stark, haunting and beautiful vocal harmonies from their 2011 debut, "Barton Hollow." Two Grammy Awards and a high-profile spot on the "Hunger Games" soundtrack later and the duo seemed on top of the music world. But it all seemed to crash down with the abrupt cancellation of a European tour and a quickly announced extended hiatus due to "internal discord and irreconcilable differences of ambition."
White and Williams still aren't talking to each other, but they did manage to harness the emotion from the split as they created this new album. We'll have a full review on Tap Milwaukee Tuesday afternoon. But, for now, you can explore the beautiful, yet heartbreaking results of The Civil Wars' own internal discord that is discussed by Williams in this extended NPR interview from today and also captured in the short behind-the-scenes video below from the making of the album's song, "The One That Got Away." »Read Full Blog Post

Video: Geico Skytypers cruise over Lake Michigan before Milwaukee Air & Water Show
I had never truly appreciated Milwaukee's lakefront until I sailed over it at 1,200 feet aboard the Geico Skytyper SNJ2 -- an aircraft used in the 1940s to train World War II soldiers for single seat Mustang fighters.
The ride lent itself to an up-close-and-personal view of the city. The pilot flew with the cockpit open at 135 mph. And while the aircraft welcomed its share of jostles, shakes and full-body thrusts while cruising over Lake Michgian, the unforgettable airborn performance stirred up ample excitement for the fleet's debut at the Milwaukee Air & Water Show this weekend. »Read Full Blog Post

The clubby political world of Washington, D.C., as Mark Leibovich describes it in "This Town," resembles WWE a little: faces and heels acting out story lines of intense conflict while all working together to get rich.
"A gold rush has enthralled the place," Leibovich writes. "It has, in recent years, become a crucible of easy wealth, fame, forgiveness and next acts. Punditry has replaced reporting as journalism's highest calling, accompanied by a mad dash of 'self-branding,' to borrow a term that had now fully infested the city." »Read Full Article

'Kill Anything That Moves' painstakingly recounts Vietnam War atrocities
Nick Turse's "Kill Anything That Moves: The Real American War in Vietnam" (Metropolitan Books) is one of the most sobering books of the year, a detailed and thoroughly sourced account of the murder, torture and rape of Vietnamese noncombatants during the war.
The My Lai massacre, far from being an isolated incident, was part of a pattern of behavior exemplified by the title of Turse's book. As far back as 1971, Vietnam veteran Charles McDuff wrote to President Richard Nixon, "Maybe your advisors have not clued you in, but the atrocities that were committed in Mylai are eclipsed by similar American actions throughout the country." »Read Full Article

Congo Ivory Burn Could Be Turning Point in Fight Against Wildlife Trafficking
By John Robinson
Today the Republic of Congo burned its confiscated hardwood timber and the country's entire stockpile of illegal ivory. With the destruction of 4.7 metric tons of ivory, the Republic of Congo joins a growing list of countries opting to burn or crush ivory stockpiles as a means of sending a global message on the plight of elephants and a warning to would-be traffickers.
"Things R Elephant": Heated Debate in Kenya Gets to the Heart of What It Will Take to Save the Species
By Paula Kahumbu
In Kenya, when you hear that "Things are Elephant," it means there's a major problem. That's why we chose this as the title for the first ever debate of its kind, organized by WildlifeDirect, on the future of elephants.
What's Behind Malawi's Decision Not to Burn Its Ivory Stockpile?
By Michael Schwartz
Malawi president Peter Mutharika recently decided to postpone the burning of roughly four tons of stockpiled ivory, worth around seven million dollars. He claimed that at least 2.6 more tons are still being held as evidence in the upcoming trials of suspected elephant poachers.
While his initial decision to destroy the ivory is being lauded by some Malawians, others question whether a burn is the best possible recourse. Some see confiscated ivory as disposable remnants of barbarism that only carry intrinsic value when attached to their owners. Others see it as revenue to help the country's poor or to augment conservation.
This also broaches the larger debate as to whether or not destroying contraband stockpiles really helps elephants in the long run.
Speaking up for Elephants: Reflections on Vermont's Ivory Sales Ban Hearing
"In a world where everything feels like it is moving at the speed of light, slowing down and watching an elephant in its natural habitat is calming and shows us the importance of paying attention to the natural world."
That opinion came from 12-year-old Taegen Yardley, a sixth grader at Endeavour Middle School in Shelburne, Vermont, on April 8 when she testified before Vermont's House Committee on Fish, Wildlife and Water Resources in support of a proposed state ban on ivory and rhino horn sales (H.297). Twenty of her classmates filled the ornate room to listen and show support.
OPINION: Rhinos and Elephants Are in Trouble—So Why Adopt Contradictory Emergency Measures?

Ethiopia Burns Entire 6.1-Ton Ivory Stockpile
ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia — At a ceremony today in the capital, Ethiopia burned its entire 6.1-ton ivory stockpile. The event was held at the Gulele Botanical Garden, close to the headquarters of the Ethiopian Wildlife Conservation Authority (EWCA), where the ivory had been stored. Deputy Prime Minister Demeke Mekonnen and officials from the Ministries of…
Elephant Poachers "Will not Have the Last Word in Kenya"

Kenya Burns 15 Tons of Stockpiled Ivory
By Fredrick Nzwili
NAIROBI, Kenya — Kenya today burned tons of stockpiled ivory, sending a strong message against elephant poaching and ivory trafficking.
The burning is the latest in a series of ivory stockpile destructions by nations across the world. During the past three years, Gabon, Belgium, Chad, China, Hong Kong, Czech Republic, Gabon, France, Philippines, and the USA have all destroyed contraband ivory and rhino horn.
Will Mobilization of Military Forces Stop Elephant Poaching in Cameroon?
Ten elephant carcasses discovered in mid-January in and around Cameroon's Bouba Ndjida National Park are raising fears that poachers may again be targeting the park. But information remains sketchy.

OPINION: Slick "Hunter Proud" Video Uses Bad Ecology to Promote Elephant Culling, Trophy Hunting, and Ivory Trading
By Phyllis Lee, Keith Lindsay, and Katarzyna Nowak
The Elephant and the Pauper: The Ivory Debacle is a recently released 50-minute video by the Hunter Proud Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit charitable public foundation and lobbying organization based in Houston, Texas.
The video was circulated in the first half of January 2015 to members of the IUCN Specialist Groups and to CITES membership, with the specific aim of lobbying for hunting and consumptive use of African wildlife.
The film—whose proposals for gaining revenue from ivory and sport hunting come at a time of unprecedented poaching and killing of elephants across their range, including in Zimbabwe—is risky to the point of irresponsibility.
ESSAY: Infighting Over Whether to Trade in Elephant Ivory and Rhino Horn Jeopardizes Both Species
From Michael Schwartz: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Isaac Newton's third law of motion is certainly an adequate illustration of the ongoing pugilism between pro-trade and anti-trade advocacy groups concerning the battle to protect remaining elephant and rhinoceros populations in Africa.
In Kenya, Justice Catches Up With Elephant Poacher
An elephant poacher in Kenya is finally behind bars, thanks to a local magistrate and coordination between the wildlife authority and two conservation partners.

Not surprisingly, the elephant's two tusks were…

How do you prevent hotlinking on a standalone Java webapp server like Tomcat?
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
Use Tuckey's URLRewriteFilter (as mentioned by others already indirectly). From the documentation:
You can check for an appropriate referer as Bruno said.
Every HTTP request contains a referer header that contains the URL that linked to the current URL being requested (or, for images, the page that referenced the image). In your case, it should contain an appropriate referer URL, which should belong to your own site.
In order to detect disallowed referers, I think you could use a filter like http://www.tuckey.org/urlrewrite/ . You can configure a simple rule that matches every image request not coming from your own site, and forbid the access or rewrite that URL to a custom 'Hotlinking not allowed' image.
I'm not sure whether it already exists, but you could easily write a Filter that checks whether there's a
What the article you've linked to describes is a rule based on the

NEW YORK (AP) Ś Anderson Cooper revealed on Monday that he is gay, ending years of reluctance to talk about his personal life in public.
The CNN journalist wrote in an online letter that he had kept his sexual orientation private for personal and professional reasons, but came to think that remaining silent had given some people a mistaken impression that he was ashamed.
ôThe fact is, Iĺm gay, always have been, always will be, and I couldnĺt be any more happy, comfortable with myself and proud,ö he wrote in the letter, published by Andrew Sullivan of the Daily Beast.
Cooper, the son of Gloria Vanderbilt, had long been the subject of rumors about his sexual orientation. He said that in a perfect world, it wouldnĺt be anyoneĺs business, but that there is value in ôstanding up and being counted.ö
ôI still consider myself a reserved person and I hope this doesnĺt mean an end to a small amount of personal space,ö he wrote. ôBut I do think visibility is important, more important than preserving my reporterĺs shield of privacy.ö
CNN said it would not comment, and that Cooper was on assignment and there were no plans for Cooper to discuss it on the air.
Few national television news reporters have publicly acknowledged being gay, with MSNBCĺs Rachel Maddow and CNNĺs Don Lemon perhaps the best known.
Cooperĺs show, ôAnderson Cooper 360,ö received an award this year from the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation.
ôEven prior to coming out publicly, Andersonĺs terrific work has raised awareness of inequalities facing LGBT people, said GLAAD President Herndon Graddick. ôHeĺs a role model to millions and now will inspire countless others.ö

In Haskell, is it possible to write a function with a signature that can accept two different (although similar) data types, and operate differently depending on what type is passed in?
An example might make my question clearer. If I have a function named
myFunction, and two types named
MyTypeA and
MyTypeB, can I define
myFunction so that it can only accept data of type
MyTypeA or
MyTypeB as its first parameter?
type MyTypeA = (Int, Int, Char, Char)
type MyTypeB = ([Int], [Char])
myFunction :: MyTypeA_or_MyTypeB -> Char
myFunction constrainedToTypeA = something
myFunction constrainedToTypeB = somethingElse
In an OOP language, you could write what I'm trying to achieve like so:
public abstract class ConstrainedType {
public class MyTypeA extends ConstrainedType {
...various members...
public class MyTypeB extends ConstrainedType {
...various members...
public Char myFunction(ConstrainedType a) {
if (a TypeOf MyTypeA) {
return doStuffA();
else if (a TypeOf MyTypeB) {
return doStuffB();
I've been reading about algebraic data types and I think I need to define a Haskell type, but I'm not sure how to go about defining it so that it can store one type or another, and also how I use it in my own functions.

IFA 2013: ASUS Transformer Pad TF701T Tegra 4 Powered
Subject: General Tech, Mobile, Shows and Expos | September 4, 2013 - 11:34 AM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: TF701T, ifa 2013, asus
Among the ASUS announcements is their new Transformer Pad TF701T. Being a Transformer Pad, the TF701T is an Android Tablet which can be used alone or docked in a keyboard for extra battery life and USB 3.0 support -- or, of course, for a keyboard. The touch display is IPS-based, 10.1", and with a native resolution of 2560x1600.
The other raw specifications include:
- NVIDIA Tegra 4 T40X quad-core SoC.
- WiFi B/G/N (dual-band) with Miracast support
- Bluetooth 3.0+EDR
- Speaker with ASUS "SonicMaster" technology
- 32GB and 64GB options
- MicroSDXC port on tablet if you need more storage.
- SDXC port on the dock if you need even more storage or, of course, to load pictures from a camera
- USB 3.0 (on dock).
- 3.5mm headphone/microphone jack.
I find it somewhat interesting that ASUS listed the Tegra 4 "T40X". It seems odd to declare a specific model if, unless I completely missed something, Tegra 4 is not announced to be binned in to multiple SKUs. This might suggest Tegra 4 will have more options than simply, "Get Tegra 4 or wait for Tegra 4i with the built-in Icera modem". Then again, it could be another case of over-description. Either way, it is something we will watch closely and report further on.
Pricing and availability information has not yet been released.

Battlefield 4: Levelution Teaser
Subject: General Tech, Shows and Expos | August 23, 2013 - 11:31 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: battlefield 4, gamescom
Battlefield 4 is still at Gamescom, possibly the last big trade show before launch, and they are still trickling out news. DICE just released their Levelution teaser, which is a cheesy name and I will not pretend to ignore that, but an interesting premise for level design. Keeping in line with the original premise for Battlefield, levels are designed for too many options to fully consider, leading to the characteristic "Battlefield Moments".
A Battlefield Moment is when something amazing, genius, or plain stupid happens in a multiplayer match and draws your attention.
Some popular examples include:
- The airborne murdering of pilots.
- Hijacking jets semi-automatically.
- Getting to the choppah.
- Sure, you can die instead.
- Indecisive snipers.
Of course capturing these moments are much more common since Bad Company 2 just due to how common video editing is. Battlefield 2 also had its moments. A personal favorite is when I dropped anti-tank mines, while parachuting, atop a heavy tank. It turns out the time it took to fall was enough for it to arm. I also enjoy proclaiming myself "The Kool-Aid Man" before running someone in my Teamspeak channel down by crashing a jeep through a wall.
DICE wants to show off their engine technology by including many user-triggered events, big and small, to give players options. You can destroy cover, lower doors, and otherwise succeed with out-of-box ideas. Check out the video, above, for more examples.
I am pretty sure the marketing people like showing off video of a skyscraper crumbling, too.
Battlefield 4 will launch October 29th in North America.
Battlefield 4 Demo: Paracel Storm at Gamescom
Subject: General Tech, Shows and Expos | August 23, 2013 - 03:39 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: battlefield 4, gamescom
EA TV conducted a broadcast of Battlefield 4, spectating gameplay from the attendees of Gamescom. Almost 13 minutes of were posted to Youtube and, because our readers are awesome, you get to see it here. Destructibility exceeding even Bad Company 2 is displayed in this map, Paracel Storm, as Russia and China fight over an island cluster.
... And the observer tools look interesting, too!
The hook of the map, at least one of them, is a windmill out in the ocean anchoring a destroyed frigate. Once the windmill is destroyed the wreckage is released, runs aground near a control point, and destroys a multi-level structure.
The video also announced another gametype, "Obliteration", which seems somewhat like a play on the Rush mode from Bad Company and Assault from Halo 2. Each team has 3 "MCOM" points which can be destroyed by planting a randomly spawning bomb. An interesting mashup.
I am, still, slightly upset that we have yet to see free bombing since Battlefield 2. Rumors have circulated, due to the promotional images from China Rising DLC, that bombers will make a reappearance in, at least, that DLC. The mechanic of bombers allows you to either: in the sky, carpet bomb to clear predictable attack paths; on the ground, lure enemies into bombing paths and chat with teammates in the sky.
Of course this is less relevant outside of the clan skirmish sphere, but still fun with a handful of friends on a public server.
What are you thoughts on the video? What are you looking forward to about Battlefield 4? What are you hoping for in Battlefield 4?
Stay tuned in case anything more comes out from Gamescom. Battlefield 4 launches October 29th with a Beta coming earlier that month.
The International 3 Tournament: Watch, DOTAuanna?
Subject: General Tech, Shows and Expos | August 7, 2013 - 03:52 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: DOTA 2, valve
Valve has just commenced, with the first match setting up and taking place (between teams Na'Vi and Orange) as I type, the third iteration of their giant DOTA 2 tournament: The International 3.
The prize pool, starting at 1.6 million dollars, is increased by $2.50 for each $9.99 tournament Compendum sold. Almost 500,000 were sold by this point yielding a purse of $2.84 million USD; the prize for first place, alone, is currently $1.42 million USD. This continues The International's trend of being among the most lucrative video game tournaments, almost doubling Blizzard's 2013 StarCraft II World Championship Series which are also along this weekend.
The live Twitch stream, ignoring fans at the venue and cheering from a variety of pubs, currently distributes to 154,000 viewers. Check out their website to watch live, check the schedule, and view past results. The tournament will continue until Sunday. The first match will begin just a minute or two after this publishes.
Unreal Engine 4 on Mobile Kepler at SIGGRAPH
Subject: General Tech, Graphics Cards, Mobile, Shows and Expos | July 24, 2013 - 05:15 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: Siggraph, kepler, mobile, tegra, nvidia, unreal engine 4
SIGGRAPH 2013 is wrapping up in the next couple of days but, now that NVIDIA removed the veil surrounding Mobile Kepler, people are chatting about what is to follow Tegra 4. Tim Sweeney, founder of Epic Games, contributed to NVIDIA Blogs the number of ways that certain attendees can experience Unreal Engine 4 at the show. As it turns out, NVIDIA engineers have displayed the engine both on Mobile Kepler as well as behind closed doors on desktop PCs.
Not from SIGGRAPH, this is a leak from, I believe, GTC late last March.
Also, this is Battlefield 3, not Unreal Engine 4.
Tim, obviously taking the developer standpoint, is very excited about OpenGL 4.3 support within the mobile GPU. In all, he did not say too much of note. They are targeting Unreal Engine 4 at a broad range of platforms: mobile, desktop, console, and, while absent from this editorial, web standards. Each of these platforms are settling on the same set of features, albeit with huge gaps in performance, allowing developers to focus on a scale of performance instead of a flowchart of capabilities.
Unfortunately for us, there have yet to be leaks from the trade show. We will keep you up-to-date if we find any, however.
PVC Load Letter? The Crap Does That Mean?

Even Microsoft believes that 3D printing is a cool movement.
Windows 8.1 will include native support for the 3D printers, CNC machines, and laser cutting devices. According to a stage demo at BUILD, Microsoft expects printing in 3D will be as easy as printing in 2D. It might be hard to think of more than a few practical applications for a home user to have access to such hardware, but often people will not realize when they avoid what could have been easily solved with the right tools.
Windows 8.1 will add the following features for its implementation:
- A standardized driver model for 3D Printers, CNC machines, and laser cutting devices
- APIs for apps to interface with the above drivers
- Device apps and extensions through the Windows Store
- Job spooling and queuing
- Easy ways to query what the device and its capabilities
The reliance upon the Windows Store might tell the larger tale. It appears that Microsoft is giving the nod to the maker community, not out of excitement, but to enable app developers to interface with these devices. Could the "modern" Windows APIs provide enough flexibility for 3D printing apps to exist without Microsoft's support? What about the next classification of peripherals?
All pondering aside...
The demo involved Antoine Leblond, of Microsoft, printing a vase from a MakerBot Replicator 2. According to TechCrunch, MakerBot will not only invade Windows 8.1 but also be stocked at Microsoft Stores. This is a solid retail win for the maker movement, giving users a chance throw one of these in the back seat of the car and drive it home from the store.
Internet Explorer 11 is for Windows 7, Too!
Subject: General Tech, Mobile, Shows and Expos | June 28, 2013 - 02:05 AM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: BUILD, BUILD 2013, internet explorer, IE11, Windows 7
Windows 8.1 will be bundled with Microsoft's latest web browser, Internet Explorer 11. The line of browsers, starting with Internet Explorer 9, are very competent offerings which approach and eclipse many competitors. Microsoft has made some errors since then, breaking standards for personal gain, but their recent efforts in supporting W3C – and even arch-nemesis Khronos – displays genuine good faith.
HTML5 Developer Tools rivalling even Mozilla and Google
But Windows XP never surpassed Internet Explorer 8, and apart from glitch and vulnerability fixes, Windows 7 is in almost exactly the same state as the day Windows 8 shipped. Internet Explorer 10 made it to the platform, late and reluctantly, along with severely neutered back-ports of Windows 8 DirectX enhancements. The platform update was welcome, but lacks the importance of a full service pack.
More importantly, the hesitation to bring IE10 to Windows 7 suggested that it would be the last first-party web browser the platform would see.
Not true, apparently. During their Build conference, Engadget claims to have spoke with a Microsoft representative who confirmed Windows 7 will receive the latest Internet Explorer. This is good news for every user of IE and every web designer with a cool WebGL implementation but is held back by browser market share concerns.
Honestly, my main concern is with the future of Internet Explorer, 12 and beyond. I am encouraged by the recent effort by Microsoft, but with Windows RT demanding for every browser to be built atop Internet Explorer, it better keep up or we are screwed. The web browser might be our operating system in the near future, applications should not be held back by the least of all possible platforms – be it Internet Explorer, Webkit, or any other dominant browser.
Of course, I should note that Engadget was not being specific with their source, so some grain of salts would be wise until it ships.
Windows 8.1 Screenshots Ahead of June 26th Preview
Subject: General Tech, Shows and Expos | June 25, 2013 - 07:41 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: Windows 8.1, BUILD 2013, BUILD, Blue
June 26th will be the first time for the general public to, legitimately, experience the preview build of Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012 R2, and the all blue'd-up Windows Server Essentials. This preview will be available through the Windows Store, but will not be upgradable to the final code.
Again, this preview will require, basically, Windows re-installation when final code hits.
Disclaimer aside, MSDN and TechNet subscribers got the updates ahead of time for server operating systems. Included with this release, a feature dubbed "Desktop Experience", providing the same interface as Windows 8.1.
Ars Technica played around with the updates and compiled several captioned screenshots into a carousel. Check them out. Of course, things could change, but this should be a better indication than -- for instance -- Windows 8 Developer Preview.
The final version of Windows 8.1 is expected to be released at some point later this year. The update will be free for current Windows 8 users.
Computex 2013: Noctua Heatsinks. Late, "Cool" Story
Subject: General Tech, Cases and Cooling, Shows and Expos | June 22, 2013 - 01:43 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: noise cancellation, noctua, computex 2013, computex
Update (June 22-2013, 4:43pm EDT): I was contacted by Noctua about the TDP ratings... quoting from their email:
As for the question regarding the TDP rating of the original NH-D14, I'd like to stress that the cooler can *easily* handle any 130W CPU! Our D14 is renowned to be among the best performing heatsinks for overclocking on the market and and many users have pushed their CPUs well beyond 250W using this cooler.
Noctua apparently does not like including TDP values for their coolers because it varies heavily on the conditions (such as, of course, room and case temperature). It makes sense, of course, because then customers would go looking at reviews and see what overclocks were achieved with the system.
Yes, I know Computex is long over, but I missed something that I want to cover.
Noctua has been teasing active noise cancellation (ANC) for their CPU coolers for quite some time now; Tim published his brief thoughts, 13 months ago, on their press release leading up to Computex 2012. The prototype, this year, is a full unit rather than the fan from last year.
This design is a modified NH-D14 cooler with added technology from RotoSub AB to sample its own noise and destructively interfere. According to Noctua, this will be the first ANC cooling unit for a CPU. The plan, as their press release suggests, is to release a cooler with the model named "R-ANC" after its (R)otoSub (A)ctive (N)oise (C)ancellation (R-ANC) technology. To me, this seems like a confusing choice in name as it breaks away from their existing standard and limits choice in name for future models based on this technology. Personally, I would have preferred to see "NH-D14R" or "NH-D14ANC", but alas I am not a marketer.
Also, in the process of researching for this article, I have been unable to find a canonical TDP-rating for this device. I was not too surprised to have a difficult time finding it for this unreleased product, but TDP is even omitted from the established, albeit louder, default NH-D14. Some sources claim this cooler can support an Intel i7 Extreme processor, which typically requires a 130W thermal dissipation; other sources say you should be somewhat cautious with this cooler with CPUs >95W TDP; some even claim it is great for air-only overclocking. Rolling all of these sources together, assuming a kernel of truth in each, I would assume this cooler (and, by extension, its upcoming R-ANC variant) would be good for decent air-only overclocks until you reach the -E series.
But, grain of salt, have some.
No word of pricing, but Noctua believes they will have it available spring/summer of next year. For some reference, the default NH-D14 can be found for about $75-$100; expect the R-ANC to be slightly north of that.
E3 2013: Microsoft can ban your Xbox One library
Subject: Editorial, General Tech, Systems, Shows and Expos | June 17, 2013 - 03:16 AM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: xbox one, microsoft, ea, E3 13, E3
Update: Microsoft denies the statements from their support account... but this is still one of the major problems with DRM and closed platforms in general. It is stuff like this that you let them do.
Electronic Arts knows that they need to shake their terrible public image.
Welcome to Microsoft's PR strategy for the Xbox One.
Consumers, whether they acknowledge it or not, fear for the control that platform holders have over their content. It was hard for many to believe that having your EA account banned for whatever reason, even a dispute with a forum moderator, forfeited your license to games you play through that EA account. Sounds like another great idea for Microsoft to steal.
@dohertymark If your account is banned, you also forfeit the licenses to any games that have licenses tied to it as listed in the ToU. ^AC
— Xbox Support (@XboxSupport1) June 14, 2013
Not stopping there, later on in the thread they were asked what would happen in the event of a security breach. You know, recourse before destroying access to possibly thousands of dollars of content.
@KillerRamen Ensure your account security features are enabled, and security proofs details are correct. ^ML
— Xbox Support (@XboxSupport1) June 15, 2013
While not a "verified account", @xboxsupport is.
They acknowledge ownership of this account in the background image there.
Honestly, there shouldn't have been any doubt that these actually are Microsoft employees.
... Yikes.
At this point, we have definitely surpassed absurdity. Sure, you typically need to do something fairly bad to have Microsoft stop charging your for Xbox Live. Removing access to your entire library of games, to me, is an attempt to limit cheating and the hardware community.
Great, encourage spite from the soldering irons, that works out well.
Don't worry, enthusiasts, you know the PC loves you.
Gaming as a form of entertainment is fundamentally different than gaming as a form of art. When content is entertainment, its message touches you without any intrinsic value and can be replaced with similar content. Sometimes a certain piece of content, itself, has specific value to society. It is these times where we should encourage efforts by organizations such as GoG, Mozilla and W3C, Khronos, and many others. Without help, it could be extremely difficult or impossible for content to be preserved for future generations and future civilizations.
It does not even need to get in the way of the industry and its attempt to profit from the gaming medium; a careless industry, on the other hand, can certainly get in the way of our ability to have genuine art. After all, this is the main reason why I am a PC gamer: the platform allows entertainment to co-exist with communities who support themselves when the official channels do not.
Of course, unless Windows learns a little something from the Xbox. I guess do not get your Windows Store account banned in the future?

Rated 5 out of 5 by cybersherrif Makes a Statement We have bought many outdoor rugs from Frontgate. These really make a statement upon arrival. They are used in a mostly covered entry way, but still get hit by rain or snow when the wind blows as our home sits at an elevation of 1000 ft. All have lasted several years, but nothing lasts for ever...even us. Some have weathered better than others, but all eventually fail to the effects of UV radiation and ozone. Our rugs face due South and are in constant sun all day. Some have changed colors over time, but still get the job done and make a statement. If you have a nice home, why not use something nice to greet visitors. When it comes time to replace the mat just do it. We buy them on sale and have back-ups ready for use. Life's too short! Sometimes we start the rugs indoors and when we get tired of the look, out they go. Wonderful curb appeal and something your visitors will remember. May 10, 2011

The process to purchase it was seamless (I'm and international customer - not from mainland USA), the product arrived in a timely manner, I was able to track it's progress. The mat looks beautiful, and the monogram just sets it off. I love it. Thank you Frontgate, I'll be back, I just wish you would open up the furniture items for international shipping too. PLEASE !!!!

Answer:Thank you for your interest in Frontgate. To remove mildew from the Huntington Mat, you should first ensure that the mat is dry.
Mix equal parts of vinegar and water in a spray or utility bottle and shake the solution vigorously to blend.
Spray the mat where the mildew has formed; but do not saturate the mat. Use a sponge or soft scrub brush and rub the mat in a circular motion to disperse and spread the solution evenly. Rinse the sponge or scrub brush and then reapply solution as needed.

I have this architecture on Amazon EC2, one NFS server and one NFS client, on the client I am serving PHP and Django websites (nginx, uwsgi, php-fpm) and they work perfectly.
I am experiencing an issue when I spin up another NFS client instance base on the image of the first NFS, when I load a PHP site(wordpress), I start to get timeouts on the browser. And when I turn off one of the NFS client instance and things start to work again. I am suspecting there is a file lock problem, I have tried all night, been searching on google and tried the nolock option but I just couldn't solve it.
What I saw was, the NFS mounted folders seemed fine and showing all the files, but when I attach the second EC2 instance, the NFS server and both clients started to get high load average, with very low CPU usage.
Here is the content from /etc/export on the NFS server
/export/www 188.8.131.52/8(rw,async,no_subtree_check)
/export/config/nginx/sites-available 22.214.171.124/8(rw,async,no_subtree_check)
/export/config/nginx/sites-enabled 184.108.40.206/8(rw,async,no_subtree_check)
/export/config/uwsgi/apps-available 22.214.171.124/8(rw,async,no_subtree_check)
/export/config/uwsgi/apps-enabled 188.8.131.52/8(rw,async,no_subtree_check)
And here is the content from /etc/fstab on the NFS clients
LABEL=cloudimg-rootfs / ext4 defaults 0 0
/dev/xvdb /mnt auto defaults,nobootwait,comment=cloudconfig 0 2
#172.31.0.62:/export/www /var/www nfs auto 0 0

Thanks heaps.
Looks like it's not only related to PHP FPM, I can even replicate this by refreshing a static html page. Whenever the server starting to get stuck, running
nfsstat shows
calls and
authrefrsh goes up very quickly.
