Curious how Google handles its Cloud? Meet Chromium OS
Subject: General Tech | May 16, 2016 - 03:12 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: google, Chromium OS
Google has released a beta version of their Container-VM Image to those interested in how they manage their Cloud. It is built to handle Docker and Kubernetes instances on the Google cloud, not for home usage on a small scale. If you are curious about the competition for Amazon, Microsoft and other providers of Clouded services you should follow the links from the post on The Register for a look. Be aware this is a beta, not all features are available and some of the ones which are may not be compatible with future updates but it is a great way to familiarize yourself with the inner lining of the Google Cloud Platform.
"Google's decided the Chromium OS is its preferred operating system for running containers in its own cloud. And why wouldn't it – the company says it uses it for its own services."

MSI's DS502; one order of gaming headset, hold the extras
Subject: General Tech | May 12, 2016 - 05:56 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: msi, ds502, gaming headset, virtual 7.1, audio
MSI's DS502 seem great for the gamer on a budget who needs to play quietly but who would still like some style. At $64 they do have some compromises such as 40mm drivers and a self adjusting headband but they also have the features you want such as plush earcups and virtual 7.1 surround sound. Kitguru found them effective during gameplay and the mic, while not stellar was good enough for in game communications and did not need the input to be raised significantly to be audible. If you are in need of a simple headset with controls that give you enough options to game and want to leave the fancy stuff to the audiophiles drop by for a look at the review.
"Today we are taking a look at MSI's brand new gaming headset, the DS502, boasting 7.1 surround sound, premium build and Hi-Fi level sound quality in a lightweight, ergonomically designed package. How does it hold up? "

G.Skill has a different take on Cherry MX RGB, check out the Ripjaws KM780R
Subject: General Tech | May 12, 2016 - 03:40 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: input, G.Skill, Ripjaws KM780R, gaming keyboard, Cherry MX, cherry mx rgb
G.Skill have joined the ranks of those who have released a Cherry MX RGB keyboard, you can choose between Red, Brown and Blue switches to accompany the light show. They chose an interesting set of caps, which float above the keyboard allowing more backlighting to show through but The Tech Report noticed that the caps feel like they are rubbing against something. As the caps are replaceable this can be resolved if you do find it to be an issue, but you will lose some light and the keyboard will not be as easy to clean. In addition to having audio jacks and a USB pass-through the optional software allows an immense amount of control over your lighting. Drop by and see if this keyboard meets your needs.
"Established RAM manufacturer G.Skill is branching into gaming peripherals of late. We've already examined the company's Ripjaws MX780 gaming mouse, and now we're looking at the KM780R gaming keyboard. Join us as we see whether this keyboard has what it takes to be a contender in the crowded gaming peripherals market."

Say it ain't so AMD; Polaris may not shine at Computex?
Subject: General Tech | May 12, 2016 - 01:56 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: rumour, Polaris, computex, amd
There is a rumour floating around this morning and it is not good. Guru of 3D translated a story over at Nordic Hardware which suggests AMD has stated they will not have any new working cards to show at Computex. The only Polaris hardware they will have ready will be equivalent to the current R9 390 and 390X, albeit at a lower price point. The rumoured problem is that the new flagship cards simply won't hit 850 MHz reliably, which in turn means high end GPUs are right out.
This had better not be true or AMD may find themselves shoeless and GPU enthusiasts will be as disappointed as White Sox fans back in 1919, albeit for different reasons. Those in the NVIDIA camp would do well to remember this has an effect on them as well; why would NVIDIA lower the price on those shiny new 1080's or 1070's when there is nothing in the market to compete with them?
This is a rumour from an anonymous source at an AMD partner, so be sure to take it with a grain of salt and hope that it is completely unsubstantiated; or that a silicon-based miracle happens in the coming months if there is some substance to this.
"Okay before I start on this news-item, I really need to state that this is based on a vague rumor, nothing has been confirmed or denied otherwise. Here's the story, some reports say Polaris 10 can't hit 850 MHz reliably and that availability will be pushed back to October. I sincerely hope the rumor is not true."

Final Fantasy X and X-2 Confirmed for PC... Launches Today
Subject: General Tech | May 12, 2016 - 07:01 AM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: square enix, final fantasy
Okay, so we're starting to get just about every main-line Final Fantasy title on the PC platform. They haven't always arrived in good condition, with Final Fantasy XIII having major user interface issues, which were mostly (but not entirely) patched, and Final Fantasy IX requiring the installation of a few Android plug-ins... on Windows. Still, many of them are classics and it's therefore good to have them on platforms that (barring current UWP discussions) encourage perpetual compatibility.
As for its system requirements? They don't specify integrated GPUs, ie: Intel, but what they do list are what we would expect for a game that targets the Xbox 360 and PS3. If it comes from AMD or NVIDIA, and they are still releasing drivers for it, you should be fine. SquareEnix declares a minimum of either a AMD Radeon HD 2600XT or a NVIDIA GeForce 9600GT.
Check out the Steam page if you're concerned, though.
Excluding the spin-offs, the PC is now missing just the original Final Fantasy, Final Fantasy II, Final Fantasy XII, and the upcoming Final Fantasy XV. The rest have arrived on the PC in some form, be it a port of the original or one of their remasters. Still no word on any of those remaining four, though, but it seems like Square is just dropping games onto Steam with a few days of notice now.
Oddly enough, no price is listed (at least in Canada). No idea why.
DOOM Will Receive Vulkan Patch "Shortly After Launch"
Subject: General Tech | May 11, 2016 - 06:17 PM | Scott Michaud
Tagged: vulkan, doom, bethesda
Update: May 11th @ 6pm EDT
NVIDIA has released new footage, which is both higher quality and longer. It is still running on the Vulkan API, although the graphics card has been switched out to the Titan X. The game is running at 1080p, 120-degree FOV, with all settings at their maximum. The game was locked to 60 FPS, but that makes sense -- they wanted it to look good on video.
The video is embedded above. NVIDIA is also self-hosting their original capture (plus a blog post) if you want to see it without YouTube's recompression (or you don't want to stream from YouTube for other reasons).
Bethesda also has their own, new video, which is just above this.
We return to the original news post, below.
At the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 event, which aligns with DreamHack Austin, id Software showed off DOOM running on Vulkan API. It will not make launch, which is this upcoming Friday, May 13th, but the game will be patched to support it "really, really shortly after launch". Ryan was not there, but PC Gamer took video of the presentation and posted it to their YouTube.
Video Credit: PC Gamer
We don't know how performance compares with OpenGL, but the Vulkan numbers (running on the GTX 1080) are pretty impressive. After they uncapped the engine, the listed frame rate stayed above 120 FPS except in the most intense battles, at which point it had momentary drops to about 100-120 FPS. According to PC Gamer, because I didn't hear it explicitly mentioned in the video, this is all at 1080p.
That's... good... to say the least.
This also means a game that officially supports Vulkan will land at around the same time as DirectX 12. We have a few DirectX 12 titles but, while Ashes of the Singularity is a good example, Gears of War: Ultimate Edition was plagued with performance problems, and so was Quantum Break. Tomb Raider and Hitman have DirectX 12 support, too, but it doesn't signal a commanding lead for DirectX 12. It still depends upon the engines, especially Unreal Engine, CryEngine, Frostbite, and Unity, but it's another sign that Vulkan arrived on time.
DOOM Launches on Friday the 13th.

Hmm, this better not be Civ V, take II
Subject: General Tech | May 11, 2016 - 03:04 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: gaming, Civ V, sid meier
Rock, Paper, SHOTGUN got a deeper look at Civ VI than just the launch trailer and it is hard to say if this will be a good one or not. The armies will continue to be unstackable but they have created formations, allowing you to group a number of units to move together which will lessen the onerous task of moving your armies around. This may help somewhat but we shall see how they deal with terrain and path calculation. The unstackable trait will now infect cities, buildings no longer stack on top of your city but will be laid out on the map just like improvements. No longer will you be sending out workers to build farms as you have in previous games, instead they will be working on upgrades from your city menu.
Research is now not only geographically based but also reliant on certain resources or upgrades; if they are appropriate your research will go much faster. Diplomacy and the AI have also been changed. There is not enough information yet to make a call but so far the news is worrying and it seems unlikely devoted fans will move away from Civ IV and its mods.
"The game is running on a brand new suite of software, built to be far more mod-friendly than its predecessor, and as well as brand new AI systems, there are a host of new mechanics that will explore and emphasise your relationship with Civ's greatest character: the map."

So long WiFi Sense, don't let the door hit you ...
Subject: General Tech | May 11, 2016 - 01:26 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Tagged: wifi sense, security, microsoft
Here is an update we can get behind! Windows 10 Build 14342 will no longer have WiFi Sense, that bizarre feature which Microsoft added which would pass on any of your stored WiFi passwords to your contacts as well as overriding your preferred network if one of your contacts signals was available. This caused a certain amount of alarm as you might not trust every contact you might have on Outlook.com with your WiFi password nor trust their WiFi networks. The blather about high cost and low demand is an interesting cover for changing their minds, regardless it is good to see it go. There were a couple of other updates included in this release, check them out at The Inquirer.
"We have removed the WiFi Sense feature that allows you to share WiFi networks with your contacts and to be automatically connected to networks shared by your contacts," explained Aul."

Boring F1
I totally agree that returning F1 to a no-fuel-stop, wider slick tyres and broader mechanically grippy car spec would definately improve the racing. Difficulty is though, that some of these rule changes would necessitate collosal and hugely expensive changes to the fabric of how an F1 car is built. The teams will be unwilling to do this and there is also a safety conern. Don't forget '94, when the banning of driver aids to improve racing had a distrous short-term impact on the stability of the cars and arguably contributed to the deaths at Imola. A good staring point would be for the FIA to acknowledge that mechnaical grip must be favoured over aero-grip and gradually reduce the amount of top-side aero devices allowed. At the same time bring back 15.5 inch slick tyres and turbo engines. Turbo's use less fuel, are not expensive in the way they once were and the variations in boost level would provide exciting overtaking opportunites. Couple that with a return to wider cars, which would enhance mechanical grip and pave the way for eliminating fuel stops (by allowing bigger fuel cells) and you would have laid the groundwork for a truly exciting F1. Sadly the above would take at least five seasons to phase in and the teams would resist. But who knows maybe Bernie will stop counting his money long enough to see the light and then Mosley will tow the line! PS Circuit rotation is a fine idea!Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
To me, if the cars were all fuelled the same at the start i.e. full, that the only time you had to pit was when the tyres had 'gone off' makes so much sense.
Then, would the drivers risk running worn tyres or have to pit for new ones.
This would end the horrible 'strategy' mind games where fuel levels and overtaking in the pits decides races rather than wheel to wheel action.
Take away a lot of the aerodydamics, get the driver to drive. I am sure there must be at least 22 London cabbies available.

go on youtube, and look at cockpit videos of Senna, Prost, Mansell, and now look at modern ones...
Gotta give power back in the drivers hands, and not on million-dollar computer systems.
First ones interested in such things are pilots by the way.

Japan OpenSolaris Community Meeting 062709
By jimgris-Oracle on Jun 28, 2009
The Japan OpenSolaris Community together on Saturday. Nice day (and night). About 60 people came by for the three sessions, two of which were in Japanese and the third in English. Then all three groups came together for a nomikai. I think the model works well to start integrating the Japanese and international OpenSolaris communities.
I used a new lens
for this event. My f/1.4 lens is getting fixed, so I borrowed Jon`s
50mm f/1.2, which is one scary smart lens. It`s a tad expensive, too,
so I was more than a little nervous shooting with it. Anyway, at f/1.2 the
focus is just razor thin. Focus on someone`s glasses and their entire face
is out. I messed up a few images that way, but by the end of the night
I was getting used to it. Amazing piece of glass. By the way, you can see Jon`s stuff
here. He`s one of the best photographers around.

OpenSolaris 2009.06 Launch: Tokyo
By jimgris-Oracle on Jun 19, 2009
I went to the Tokyo launch of OpenSolaris 2009.06 at Sun's office in
Jingumae earlier tonight. Good turn out of about 100 people. The
lineup: Introduction, Akira Ohsone; OpenSolaris 2009.06, Shunsuke
Kuroda; OpenSolaris Demo, Shoji Haraguchi; Solaris 10 5/09, Hiroaki
Nozaki; and CommunityOne West Report, Masafumi Ohta. See videos here from Shoji. This is the third
such launch of OpenSolaris in Tokyo. Both the 2008.05 and 2008.11
events were excellent as well. Tonight seemed to be an interesting mix
of Sun Solaris 10 customers and the growing OpenSolaris communities in
Tokyo. There was also some chatter on #opensolaris-jp on IRC.
Nice night.

OpenSolaris, ZFS, and that Orange T-Shirt
By jimgris-Oracle on Mar 07, 2009
Check out David Stewart talking about Intel, OpenSolaris, and ZFS. And check out that orange t-shirt he has on as well. So, cool. That`s the shirt from the Tokyo OpenSolaris User Group we started a few months ago. Shirts get around, you know, and this one made it all the way to the Pacific Northwest. It`s actually a very nice shirt, and if you wear it outside you are guaranteed to get attention. You`d probably stop traffic, too. It`s a tad on the bright side. Which is probably why Dave had to put a black shirt over the top. Makes a nice combination if you are doing serious technical demonstrations on YouTube about OpenSolaris, Intel, and ZFS.
Update: I found another Tokyo OSUG t-shirt video in the Intel Dave OpenSolaris series -- OpenSolaris & Intel: PowerTOP. How could I have missed that one?

OpenSolaris 2008.11 Launch Tokyo
By jimgris-Oracle on Dec 18, 2008
The OpenSolaris
community in Japan came together in Tokyo tonight to celebrate the launch of
OpenSolaris 2008.11. Shoji Haraguchi, Hiroaki Nozaki, Akira Ohsone,
and Hisayoshi Kato all presented
talks about the community and the new technology in 2008.11.
The room was packed with 85 people,
so it was a very cool night. Actually, it was pretty hot in there.
You know, I've been watching Sun Japan's OpenSolaris community development programs grow consistently over the past two years. The operations span globalization, marketing, sales/service, and engineering. There is a Japanese OpenSolaris User Group (Japanese language), a Tokyo OpenSolaris User Group (English language), an OpenSolaris Night Seminar Program, an OpenSolaris Source Code Study Group, customer/partner interactions, installfests, university engagements with 10 Campus Ambassadors, and other events that such as Tech Days, Developer Lounges, etc.
And the OpenSolaris community is growing right along with Sun Japan's increased participation. The community is also starting to mix with the international Linux, BSD, and Tokyo2Point0 communities, which is very cool because local community development can now extend globally. And real contributions are coming in too: translations of content, generation of original content, source code (some of which has been integrated), presentations, technical articles, packages, and mirrors. In fact, the community is advancing to the point where significant stuff is just showing up seemingly out of nowhere -- such as the new Japanese OpenSolaris book and the new Japanese distribution of OpenSolaris. That last point is important. When we started OpenSolaris, we tried to learn from the open source community and build a global program that would encourage others to contribute without Sun having to drive everything.
So, congratulations to the Sun team driving this launch of OpenSolaris 2008.11.
One more point: the Japanese may not say much in English about their participation in the community, and there are some well known cultural reasons for this. There is actually a great deal of community content to be found in Japanese language blogs, but even then it's not characterized as westerners are used to. It's different and usually indirect. And yes, this drives me mad. But if you want to really know about about this you have to dig. Deeply. You have to take the time. And if you do, you generally find significant activity generating some very interesting contributions. I'm just scratching the surface here, I realize, but there is more here than meets the eye.

I am trying to use regex for the IP address from an HTML page:
<title>Current IP Check</title>
Current IP Address: xx.xxx.xxx.xx
And my VB.Net code is currently this:
Using wClient As New WebClient
ip = wClient.DownloadString("http://checkip.dyndns.org/")
ip = Regex.Match(ip, "^[+-]?(\d+(\.\d+)?|\.\d+)$", RegexOptions.Singleline).ToString
End Using
However, the end results are nothing for IP.
I'm just looking to get xx.xxx.xxx.xx
What would I be doing incorrectly?

An Initial Shortwave Trough Is Moving Inland Over The Nrn Rockies
And Weakening...As Another Trough Near 47 N And 136 W Approaches The Wa Coast This Evening.
Low-Midlevel Lapse Rates Near 7 C/Km And Moist Onshore Flow Will Maintain Weak Buoyancy And A Risk For Isolated Low-Topped Thunderstorms Today Along The Pac Nw Coast.
The Risk For Isolated Strong/Severe Gusts Will Increase This Evening In Conjunction With The Approach Of The Upstream Shortwave Trough.
Likewise...Wind Profiles Will Strengthen...With The Greater Risk For
Strong Gusts Accompanying An Enhanced Convective Band Along The Baroclinic Zone.
Otherwise...A Few Thunderstorms Will Persist Today Across Se Tx And La In A Moist Environment Preceding A Slow-Moving Cold Front.
Buoyancy Is Already Marginal Across This Area...Where Widespread
Clouds And Poor Lapse Rates Aloft Will Limit The Potential For
Additional Destabilization This Afternoon. Meanwhile...The
Combination Of Weak Buoyancy And Relatively Weak Vertical Shear Will Not Support Organized Severe Storms.

Genetic engineering enables scientists to create plants, animals and micro-organisms by manipulating genes in a way that does not occur naturally.
These genetically modified organisms (GMOs) can spread through nature and interbreed with natural organisms, thereby contaminating non 'GE' environments and future generations in an unforeseeable and uncontrollable way.
Their release is 'genetic pollution' and is a major threat because GMOs cannot be recalled once released into the environment.
Because of commercial interests, the public is being denied the right to know about GE ingredients in the food chain, and therefore losing the right to avoid them despite the presence of labelling laws in certain countries.
Biological diversity must be protected and respected as the global heritage of humankind, and one of our world's fundamental keys to survival. Governments are attempting to address the threat of GE with international regulations such as the Biosafety Protocol.
April 2010: Farmers, environmentalists and consumers from all over Spain demonstrate in Madrid under the slogan "GMO-free agriculture." They demand the Government to follow the example of countries like France, Germany or Austria, and ban the cultivation of GM maize in Spain.
GMOs should not be released into the environment since there is not an adequate scientific understanding of their impact on the environment and human health.
We advocate immediate interim measures such as labelling of GE ingredients, and the segregation of genetically engineered crops and seeds from conventional ones.
We also oppose all patents on plants, animals and humans, as well as patents on their genes. Life is not an industrial commodity. When we force life forms and our world's food supply to conform to human economic models rather than their natural ones, we do so at our own peril.
Twenty years ago, the first genetically modified (GM) crops were planted in the USA, alongside dazzling promises about this new technology. Two decades on, the promises are getting bigger and bigger, but GM crops are not delivering any of them.
Europe's dependency on chemical pesticides is nothing short of an addiction. Crops are routinely doused with a variety of chemicals, usually applied multiple times to single crops throughout the whole growing season. Industrial agriculture, with...
We are living with a broken food system. It needs to be replaced urgently for the benefit of all people, and the planet. Greenpeace's Food and Farming Vision describes what Ecological Farming means, and how it can be summarised in seven...

Paul Moreno: Obama's Re-Election Model Is FDRRoundup: Historians' Take
Mr. Moreno is a professor of history at Hillsdale College and the author of Black Americans and Organized Labor: A New History, (Louisiana State University Press, 2006).
President Obama is cozying up to the "Occupy Wall Street" movement, intending to make resentment of big business a central theme of his re-election campaign. Here he's following the lead of Franklin D. Roosevelt, who tried to convince the public that Wall Street was to blame for the double-dip recession that plagued his second administration.
In late 1937 the American economy, which had been recovering slowly since 1932, contracted even more sharply than it had after the stock market crash in late 1929. Industrial production fell by a third, stock prices fell by 50%, durable goods production by almost 80%. Payrolls fell 35%, and unemployment climbed back to 20%.
Roosevelt was initially nonplused, slow to appreciate the severity of the downturn. But once he saw the need for action, he called Congress into special session and undertook a massive new public-spending program...

Vigil to Preserve Yasuni-ITT
In an attempt to reverse Ecuadorian President Rafael Correa's unilateral decision to scrap Ecuadorian President Rafael Correa's unilateral decision to scrap the revolutionary Yasuní-ITT initiative, indigenous leaders, civil rights lawyers, and environmentalists gathered on Thursday to present the Constitutional Court with a proposed referendum question. It reads, "Do you believe that the Ecuadorean government should keep the crude in the ITT, known as block 43, underground indefinitely?" The next step is for supporters of the initiative to gather the signatures of five percent of Ecuadorians--nearly 600,000 people--in order to bring the question to a popular vote. Recent polls show that the vast majority of Ecuadorians--between 80 and 90 percent--want to preserve Yasuní-ITT, and many of them held a vigil that evening in front of the Presidential Palace to show their support for the plan.

"We will die. We will not leave without being heard."
Only two days after the reoccupation of the Belo Monte Dam began, the fate of 170 indigenous people is at stake. Yesterday, the Federal Court in Altamira ordered them to leave by 4 pm today or they would be removed by Federal Police. They responded by tearing up the order and refused to leave by the deadline. Instead, they are standing strong and are demanding that President Dilma's Chief of Staff, Gilberto Carvalho, come meet with them. Photos by Ruy Marques Sposati, Movimento Xingu Vivo.

Occupy Belo Monte
The indigenous-led occupation of Pimental Island on the Xingu River started on July 21st. Steadily growing groups of indigenous inhabitants of the Xingu are demanding that construction of the Belo Monte dam be halted until the dam-building consortium and the government can put in place effective measures to address the effects of the dam such as loss of fishing and hunting resources, loss of river navigation, and increased incidence of diseases.
More than 300 people from 21 indigenous villages and 9 different ethnicities are represented at the occupation so far. Many tribal elders have expressd outrage seeing how the initial earthen dam is now blocking a large part of the flow of their mighty river. On one side of the coffer dam, the river comes to a sudden halt; on the other side, there is no flow, just pools of stagnant water.

Human Rights Court In Unprecedented Visit to Sarayaku
Top judges of the Inter-American Human Rights Court took the unusual step of making an in situ visit to the Kichwa indigenous community of Sarayaku in the heart of Ecuador's central Amazon region. The historic visit was part of the community's long-running case against the Ecuadorian government over rights abuses suffered when an Argentine oil company began conducting seismic testing in search of oil reserves with the aid of Ecuador's military. The entrance of the oil company into Sarayaku lands occurred without the consultation or consent of the community. It marks the first time the court has visited a community involved in a case before the court.

Sarayaku Delegation in Costa Rica
Amazon Watch counterparts from Sarayaku (Kichwa people from the Ecuadorian Amazon) are in Costa Rica this week bringing their government before the Inter-American Court of Human Rights. For eight years they have brought documentation of human rights violations before the Organization of American States, with the goal of the Ecuadorian government admitting to past rights violations and offering guarantees that the same never happen again. Sarayaku's complaints include oil companies entering their territory without consultation, arrests and torture when they resisted oil exploration, and a long-running campaign to demonize the 1,200 residents of Sarayaku as anti-development terrorists.
On 6 July 2011, hundreds of miles from home, eighteen members of Sarayaku arrived at the Court with a powerful ceremony designed to bring the spiritual power of their homeland. Thereafter the delegation, led by Sarayaku President José Gualinga entered the court room, waiting for the entry of the judges.

Last Stand for the Xingu
320 indigenous representatives from 18 ethnicities from the Xingu basin and beyond gathered at an assembly in Piaraçu in May 2011. They were joined by leaders of the Xingu Alive Forever Movement (MXVPS), who brought news from endangered communities of Altamira, and Amazon Watch staff. Called by the legendary elder Kayapó Chief Raoni Metyktire, the assembly aimed to discuss the impending human rights and environmental disaster that is the Belo Monte Dam on the Lower Xingu – in particular the menace it represents to Brazil's indigenous peoples – and ways for its opponents to forge a single and unified force to resist its construction.

Dozens of new oil spills in the Northern Peruvian Amazon
A new report by the Federation of Indigenous Communities of the Corrientes River (FECONACO) reveals the devastating ongoing impacts of oil drilling. A team of monitors from the indigenous Achuar and Urarina communities on the Corrientes River documented 18 major crude oil spills in 2010 and over 90 spills over the last three years, directly affecting dozens of miles of rivers and streams and vast stretches of forest.
Blocks 1-AB and 8 are currently operated by Argentine company Pluspetrol. Block 1-AB was operated by Los Angeles-based Occidental Petroleum (Oxy) from 1971 to 2000 and is the subject of ongoing litigation by communities alleging the company severely contaminated the environment for nearly 30 years.

In the early morning of Monday, January 31, 2011, police and military forces accompanied by helicopters arrested Pepe Acacho and three other Shuar leaders on charges of terrorism and sabotage. In September of 2009 they led protests against a law privatizing water supplies, and these charges stem from clashes that occurred at that time. Acacho and two others were then flown to the Garcia Moreno prison in Quito, and protesters there are demanding their immediate release.

Cultural & Environmental Destruction in the Ecuadorian Amazon
Descending from the Andes into the oil boomtown of Coca, the Ecuadorian Amazon stretches as far as the eye can see. Nearly half a century ago, this part of the rainforest was the pristine home of five indigenous groups – the Quichua, Cofan, Huaorani, Siona, and Secoya. In the early 1960s, American oil company Texaco discovered heavy crude oil beneath this jungle region called the Oriente, or the East. Over the next three decades Texaco (now Chevron) spilled an estimated 17 million gallons of oil, and dumped over 18 billion gallons of toxic wastewater into the rivers and streams relied upon by local residents for drinking and bathing. The invasion of the region by oil workers wreaked havoc on the cultures of the indigenous communities while Texaco's environmental devastation condemned the tribes to an ongoing public health crisis.

Amazonian Voices at the UN Climate Summit in Cancún
Amazon Watch attended the Cancun climate talks where we worked to elevate the voices of our Amazonian Indigenous allies within spaces otherwise dominated by governments, corporations, and the World Bank. With our strategic and logistical support, leaders like Marlon Santi from Ecuador and Sonia Guajajara from Brazil brought their urgent message of demanding respect for indigenous rights to public protests, press conference, and strategy sessions.
After 2 weeks of negotiations, the UN climate summit concluded with an agreement that some hail as a victory because proposals such as a Green Climate Fund and REDD (Reduced Emissions for Deforestation and Degradation) were formally adopted. In the view of many of our Amazonian indigenous allies however, the Cancun agreement instead represents a likely threat to indigenous rights and tropical forests.

Peru's Amazonian tribes at risk - October 2010 hearing at the OAS
The Amazon's indigenous peoples are increasingly bringing their struggles before international human rights bodies. In late October of 2010, Amazon Watch had the pleasure of helping to facilitate the visit of our long-time colleague Henderson Rengifo, currently a leader with AIDESEP and previous treasurer of FECONACO in northern Peru. The delegation was a joint collaboration with a number of Peruvian ally groups like DAR, CAAAP, and the National Human Rights Coordination Body.
Beyond advocacy efforts at the Inter-American Human Rights Commission, we also connected Henderson with civil society allies, key Congressional staff members, and Peru specialists at the State Department. AIDESEP views these as key stakeholders in building pressure on the Peruvian government for respect of indigenous peoples' rights.

U'wa Return to California
Colombian indigenous leaders from the U'wa people visited friends old and new in San Francisco and Los Angeles in late September of 2010. Berito Cobaría and Gilberto Cobaría, elected leaders with the Association of U'wa Councils and Authorties - ASOU'WA, explained how the peaceful-by-nature U'wa are designated by their creator to serve as guardians of Mother Earth. They also outlined the threats to the environment and their culture that they are fighting off, including oil extraction, a gas pipeline, mining, and the construction of a highway to Venezuela right through the heart of their territory.

Achuar photo essay July 2010
For centuries the Achuar people have lived in harmony with the Amazon rainforest. But now, the unrelenting drive for oil has reached the deepest regions of their territory. Canadian oil company Talisman Energy has already cleared hundred of kilometers of seismic lines in the northern Peruvian Amazon -- and is now beginning to drill exploratory wells. This is a photo essay from a recent trip into the territory of a fierce, beautiful people defending their lands against the threat of oil development.

"No waltz for midnight" Top 5 Page for this destination Kufstein by sabsi
Kufstein Travel Guide: 44 reviews and 127 photos
Thomas and I decided a day before New Year's Eve that we'd rather spend it somewhere else than in Munich. As Kufstein is close to the border we decided to go there. I was thrilled. I wanted to waltz on the streets at midnight as the people in Austria do. On this page you will find out why the trip to Kufstein was not a good decision ;-) Definitely a New Year's Eve to remember.....
- Pros:Nice little old town but not much else I guess.
- Cons:They celebrate New Year's Eve on 30 December ;-)
- In a nutshell:Nice place for a day trip if you don't come on 31 December!

Whitespace is signification in Python in that code blocks are defined by their indentation.
Furthermore, Guido van Rossum recommends using four spaces per indentation level (see PEP 8: Style Guide for Python Code).
What was the reasoning behind not requiring exactly four spaces per indentation level as well? Are there any technical reasons?
It seems like all the arguments that can be made for making whitespace define code blocks can also be used to argument for setting an exact whitespace length for one indentation level (say four spaces).

Written for both dermatologists and pathologists, this new, completely revised edition of this dermatopathologic classic contains a wealth of upto-date information and pertinent pathologic detail, something uncommon for a book that covers, almost in its entirety, the rapidly expanding field of cutaneous disease. It continues to be first in the field for its outstanding organization, practical clinicopathologic descriptions, histologic detail, extensive bibliography, and nearly exhaustive discussion of this histogenesis of the numerous entities covered. This time, an appendix with 50 electron microscopical plates has been added to the already extensive black-and-white photomicrographic illustration. This book is recommended for dermatologists and pathologists in training and for any serious student of cutaneous pathology.

Florida IAQ Consultant Helps Identify Pet Allergens
Advanced Building Assessment helps Florida's property owners inspect and test for pet allergens in homes, offices, and schools.
Even for people without pets, they may still come in contact with other people's pet allergens. Allergies to pets are common and both furry pets and pets with feathers can cause an allergic reaction in some people.
According to the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America between 15 and 30% of people who suffer from allergies have allergic reactions to cats and dogs. Many experts state that cat allergies are about twice as common as dog allergies. Other reports indicate that approximately 10% of the population is allergic to animals.
One company that has been helping Floridians identify pet allergens and other causes of allergies and asthma triggers is Advanced Building Assessment. Eric Osking, M.S., CIEC, President of Advanced Building Assessment, reported, "Pet allergies are caused by people who have sensitive immune systems that respond to proteins that can be found in pet urine, saliva and pet dander. Birds kept as pets can expose people to allergens through their feathers and droppings. Bird dropping can also be the source of exposure to bacteria, dust, and mold. Even people without pets can suffer from these allergens. It's not uncommon for allergy suffers to move into a home or apartment that previously housed animals and before they know it they have a reaction. Fortunately, there are affordable and accurate testing services to determine if pet allergens are present in an indoor environment and Advanced Building Assessment has the expertise to test and determine if pet allergens are a problem."
Advanced Building Assessment has sponsored an educational video about pet allergens and indoor environments that can be seen at:
To learn more about testing for pet allergens or other indoor air quality (IAQ), environmental or property insurance related inspection services, please visit http://www.BldgInspect.com, email firstname.lastname@example.com or call (407) 371-5237.
About Advanced Building Assessment, Inc.
Advanced Building Assessment is a leading provider of environmental consulting, home inspection and public adjuster services for clients across Florida.

How Much Would YOU Pay For Vintage Accessories From Princess Di?
Princess Diana's silk tie is about to go to auction, and as you can imagine, that's a pretty big deal. The accessory that she wore in 1994 is expected to fetch up to £3,000 — but, would you be willing to fork out that sort of sum? And besides, we've got to ask, would you actually wear it?
As a nation, it's fair to say we go pretty soppy for a royal. When K-Mid steps out in ASOS, we all flock to our browsers, and when Prince William talks babies, we all go weak at the knees. So, it comes as no surprise that when put under the hammer, possessions of Princess Di go for crazy amounts of money. Now, her printed Escada tie goes up for auction next week, and is listed as an "important" piece by Reeman Dansie auctioneers. Teamed with a matching Escada suit, she wore it to visit her newborn nephew in 1994, before gifting it to a friend's daughter with the inclusion of a note reading "lots of love from Diana."
Up for auction next week, complete with said note, it's no doubt a piece of history. But we have to ask: How much would you pay to have a piece of the princess' wardrobe to mix in among your own? (Telegraph)

Created in 2007 as part of the AmeriCorps VISTA Project, HEROS is a mentoring partnership between SUNY Geneseo and Livingston County High Schools. Trained HEROS mentors work one-on-one each week with students that have been selected by his or her guidance counselor. Acting as a positive role model and lending support, as well as a listening ear, the mentor is the middle ground between an authoritative figure and a friend. Ultimately, the goal of the program is to encourage high school students to go to college (either a 2 year or 4 year program). Through the establishment of a positive mentor-mentee relationship, the hope is to end the cycle of poverty with a focus on education.
A HERO is a mentor:
Someone who:
As a HEROS mentor, one is expected to complete a training workshop through GOLD entitled "Keys to Effective Mentoring", to show up each week for one hour to meet with mentee, and to be an empathetic and non-judgmental supporter of a high school student. If you would like to be a mentor for the HEROS program, please complete this applicaton.

Fall of Gaddafi opens a new era for the Sahara's lost civilisationBreaking News
The late Muammar Gaddafi was fond of insisting on the links between his republic and sub-Saharan Africa. He was less interested, however, in celebrating the black African civilisation that flourished for more than 1,500 years within what are now Libya's borders, and that was barely acknowledged in the Gaddafi-era curriculum.
Now, however, researchers into the Garamantes – a "lost" Saharan civilisation that flourished long before the Islamic era – are hoping that Libya's new government can restore the warrior culture, mentioned by Herodotus in his Histories, to its rightful place in Libya's history.
For while the impressive Roman ruins at Sabratha and Leptis Magna – both world heritage sites – are rightly famous, Libya's other cultural heritage, one that coexisted with its Roman settlers, has been largely forgotten....

Whats the easiest way to install windows 7 from a pen drive?
marked as duplicate by Ivo Flipse♦ Jun 15 '10 at 11:17
This question has been asked before and already has an answer. If those answers do not fully address your question, please ask a new question.
Simply put, get the stick and just copy the root of the Windows 7 DVD to it.
You should not need to do anything special and as long as the computer supports boot from USB, it should work just like the DVD only a lot quicker. I do this for installs and typically have it complete in less than 20 minutes (on high speed USB Sticks).
You may also want to take a look at the WAIK (Windows Automated Installation Kit), this will enable you to make unattend.xml files (previously called answer files) that automate all the prompts during Windows Setup that even on top of the above, can significantly reduce the Windows install time.
I believe you need to pepper you USB stick a bit.
Have a look here at the Vista/Win7 diskpart command:
The details are fairly simple:
Start>Run> cmd diskpart list disk select disk (whichever corresponds to your usb from above) clean create partition primary active format quick fs=fat32 assign exit
I have personally tried this with great success.
The stick has to be formatted by Windows Vista or 7 to have the proper boot sector that will load the modern bootloader and not the old ntldr. If you only have an XP machine or similar old available there is a bootsect.exe tool on the DVD image that can write a new bootsector to a partition to make it boot either old-style or new-style.
Most certainly the easiest way to install Windows from USB:
WinToFlash starts a wizard that will help pull over the contents of a Windows installation CD or DVD and prep the USB drive to become a bootable replacement for the optical drive. It can also do this with your live CD (e.g. BartPE).
Believe me, as a long-time netbook user, I know that it doesn't get any easier! I wish we hat this little gem two years ago.

I am in a situation where I have to chose between unix user groups or sudo to tackle an issue.
To give some background, A Linux app is installed as user X. The installation copies some scripts and creates certain log directories with execute/write permissions for user X.
Now another app with user Y needs to start X. It needs to run app as user Y. And it should be able to execute the launch script and write to log files which are permissioned for user X.
To solve this, I have 2 solutions in mind:
Run the app as user Y using sudo/su. This means, I need to put the password in the launch script which may not be okay with compliance. We can give a read only permission to the launch script but still.
Add user Y and X to a group and give them the correct group permissions to get this done
I personally think 2 is better and is more flexible and be free of putting the password into launch script which could be an issue on the production system.
Please let me know your thoughts and if you have any better ideas to do this.

In French, the verb altérer means change into something worse or degrade. As a non-native English speaker I wonder whether the English verb alter has necessarily this negative meaning or in the contrary, if it is neutral as change or transform.

Here's how it works:

- The best answers are voted up and rise to the top
It is generally neutral.
Alter on its own has no positive or negative connotations. For example,
could mean he changed in a positive way, negative way, or simply a neutral way that made him very different from before.
The verb alter is often used to describe the process of making changes to clothing in order to improve the fit for a particular customer.
I wonder if native speakers of French avoid such businesses?

I'm having an issue while trying to link an iPhone app to use one of the static libraries that I'm working with.
The app works fine with iPhone OS 3.0, but when I try to upgrade to iOS4.0, I'm having a few issues.
The library that I'm trying to use is an universal fat which contains versions for arm and i386. Now I'm getting the "symbol(s) not found" error when I try to use this fat library. It works fine for the device(arm) but while trying to compile for Simulator(i386) I'm having issues.
The error it gives me is:
"_OBJC_CLASS_$_ClassName", referenced from: file.o
Symbol(s) not found."
Looking into the fat library (using nm) I see the symbol listed under armv6 and armv7 as type "S", and I guess that's the reason it's working fine! However, I'm not able to find the same under i386, and I've no idea why!
I do see a symbol ".objc_class_name_ClassName" listed as type "A", however the symbol which is said to be missing is not listed there.
Any ideas?


text: Hi, I moved my wordpress installation from one URL to another using this great plugin which I have used before with no trouble, however this time around I can only see the homepage on the new site, and the other pages say 'Not Found' even though the Urls look correct in the address bar. I can't access Admin backend either now. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Used CT Shuttle for airport transfers in Johannesburg and twice in Cape Town recently. Reliable, on time and courteous drivers. No problems and reasonable fares. What more does one want?

The comments at the end of the linked story and his friends/family are even scarier. I have been a youth hockey coach for 15 years when I had the time and you can't beieve some of the things I have seen parents do. Slash tires on cars of the kids that are on away trips so they can't get from the hotel to the rink, putting a pepper spray type chemical in the air system of a locker room. Having cops called numerous of times to escort parents out of a rink.
Sickening and embarrasing for the kids
