Andrew Carnegie
Interviewer: Mr. Carnegie! Mr. Carnegie!
(Car Stops)
Interviewer: Can I please have an interview with you upon your essay, The Gospel of Wealth?
(Carnegie gets out of the car)
Carnegie I'm a very busy man child. Every second is essential.
Interviewer: It's only a few minutes sir. Only a few comments and answers about your philosophy in this world.
Carnegie: I guess I have got some time for this interview of yours. Where will it be?
Interviewer: Please follow me Mr. Carnegie. My office is only a few hundred paces from here. I'm so excited that I'm talking to you.
Carnegie: I'm only a man of great age, with the idea of sharing in this great world of ours. Everyone believes that I'm great, but all I am is a investor and the founder of Carnegie Steel.
(Arrives at office)
Interviewer: All right sir! Please sit there and we'll begin.
Carnegie: This is a great place of yours but I would rather stand
Interviewer: I have heard many rumors and ideas about which events had an impact on you to write this essay. Please explain who Herbert Spencer is.
Carnegie: Herbert Spencer could be thought as whom I would call the one who influenced my life the most. The great man's writings not only helped me get rid of theology and the supernatural, but I now found the truth of evolution in the world.
Interviewer: What did he actually write? What were his meanings in his book?
Carnegie: Young Man. Have you heard of the great Charles Darwin's?
Interviewer: Yes? Isn't he the naturalist, who showed the people in the world that all species of life have evolved over time from common "parents" through the process called natural selection?
Carnegie: Yes that's him. Charles Spencer was a man who adapted his theory of natural selection and applied it to human society in a philosophy known as "Social Darwinism"
He believed and he wrote his books such as Principles of Biology according to the main ideas that the government did more harm than good, and also that competition and ideas caused social evolution.
Interviewer: Excuse me, but what's social evolution?
Carnegie: It is the idea that certain behaviors in humans could potentially be more beneficial to them than to others, and through his writings, it helped me write my ideas in an essay called The Gospel of Wealth. Herbert Spencer's theories of social Darwinism are what I went against.
Interviewer: What were the problems that you found that you had wanted to address in your essay, Mr. Carnegie?
Carnegie: The problem of our age is the administration of wealth, where the poor and rich could still be tied together as humans being born of the same rights.
Interviewer: What do you mean?
Carnegie: In the past years, there were not much differences between the houses, the clothes, the food, or even the environment of every human, but as the times passed, technology and the separation between the rich and the poor are with us today. This separation is great for the people and the race of human beings, but the many contradictions between the creation of wealth from the social laws, and social provision, helped me gain the idea that the rich people should at least try to help the poor.
Interviewer: What do you think especially about the problems with the difference?
Carnegie: There are always successful benefits under the laws of competition, but there are also disadvantages of having the differences of the rich and poor. The separation between the wealthy and the poor with the condition that the human race is in, giving wealth to the few could be made to be beneficial. The problem is not the difference between the rich and the poor, but which way is the proper mode of administrating wealth. My main point could said that the rich should use their wealth to try to help enrich the society.
Interviewer: From listening to others who have read your essay, I heard that there were three modes in where the wealth could be wasted. What were they?
Carnegie: I have clearly stated the three main points that should be followed in close attention. The dangers of rich entrepreneurs and kings just giving their money to their descendents, other persons or organizations not qualified enough to handle it, and just letting it be administered by themselves throughout their whole lives. Instead of wasting money, the money should be put towards the public good. People should just not leave money to their children, because as history tells us, most of the heirs waste their fortunes, just living their lives instead of trying to help the public good. I have noticed that this type of capitalism may indeed give damage to many people; I believe that it could help poverty grow no more, if wealthy businessmen contribute to the problem.
All I am trying to specify in my essay is that as wealthy entrepreneurs, they have a responsibility of helping the general public.
Interviewer: As you said Mr. Carnegie, how do you plan to carry out your philosophy?
Carnegie: I hope to build libraries all over the country, buildings for the economic principles, and to give certain funding programs for people in need.
Interviewer: Thank you for joining me today for this wonderful and elaborative interview of yours.
Carnegie: No problem child. I hope I have answered all the questions that you have asked.
Gospel of WealthThe problem of our age is the administration of wealth, so that the ties of brotherhood may still bind together the rich and poor in harmonious relationship. The conditions of human life have not only been changed, but revolutionized, within the past few hundred years. In former days there was little difference between the dwelling, dress, food, and environment of the chief and those of his retainers. . . . The contrast between the palace of the millionaire and the cottage of the laborer with us to day measures the change which has come with civilization.
There are but three modes in which surplus wealth can be disposed of. It can be left to the families of the decedents; or it can be bequeathed for public purposes; or, finally, it can be administered during their lives by its possessors. Under the first and second modes most of the wealth of the world that has reached the few has hitherto been applied. Let us in turn consider each of these modes. The first is the most injudicious. In monarchial countries, the estates and the greatest portion of the wealth are left to the first son, that the vanity of the parent may be gratified by the thought that his name and title are to descend to succeeding generations unimpaired. The condition of this class in Europe to day teaches the futility of such hopes or ambitions. The successors have become impoverished through their follies or from the fall in the value of land.... Why should men leave great fortunes to their children? If this is done from affection, is it not misguided affection? Observation teaches that, generally speaking, it is not well for the children that they should be so burdened. Neither is it well for the state. Beyond providing for the wife and daughters moderate sources of income, and very moderate allowances indeed, if any, for the sons, men may well hesitate, for it is no longer questionable that great sums bequeathed oftener work more for the injury than for the good of the recipients. Wise men will soon conclude that, for the best interests of the members of their families and of the state, such bequests are an improper use of their means.
. . .
As to the second mode, that of leaving wealth at death for public uses, it may be said that this is only a means for the disposal of wealth, provided a man is content to wait until he is dead before it becomes of much good in the world.... The cases are not few in which the real object sought by the testator is not attained, nor are they few in which his real wishes are thwarted....
The growing disposition to tax more and more heavily large estates left at death is a cheering indication of the growth of a salutary change in public opinion.... Of all forms of taxation, this seems the wisest. Men who continue hoarding great sums all their lives, the proper use of which for public ends would work good to the community, should be made to feel that the community, in the form of the state, cannot thus be deprived of its proper share. By taxing estates heavily at death, the state marks its condemnation of the selfish millionaire's unworthy life.
. . . This policy would work powerfully to induce the rich man to attend to the administration of wealth during his life, which is the end that society should always have in view, as being that by far most fruitful for the people....
There remains, then, only one mode of using great fortunes: but in this way we have the true antidote for the temporary unequal distribution of wealth, the reconciliation of the rich and the poor-a reign of harmony-another ideal, differing, indeed from that of the Communist in requiring only the further evolution of existing conditions, not the total overthrow of our civilization. It is founded upon the present most intense individualism, and the race is prepared to put it in practice by degrees whenever it pleases. Under its sway we shall have an ideal state, in which the surplus wealth of the few will become, in the best sense, the property of the many, because administered for the common good, and this wealth, passing through the hands of the few, can be made a much more potent force for the elevation of our race than if it had been distributed in small sums to the people themselves. Even the poorest can be made to see this, and to agree that great sums gathered by some of their fellow citizens and spent for public purposes, from which the masses reap the principal benefit, are more valuable to them than if scattered among them through the course of many years in trifling amounts.
Napolean HIll, journalist for Carnegie:
Main Ideas of EssayAndrew Carnegie wrote an essay that would go on to change the way many of the world's richest thought about theirwealth and the responsibility that came along with it. "The Gospel of Wealth" was Andrew Carnegie's attempt to infuse the business world – especially the upper class of self-made millionaires – with a new sense of philanthropy.
By the time he died in 1919, he had given away most of his fortune, $350,695,653 to be exact. There was still an additional $30,000,000 remaining, but all of it was earmarked for various foundations and charities. All his life, he had been a shrewd businessman, but he spent his last years paying back what he had taken. In writing this essay, the Scot outlined this very ideology.
The central thesis of the essay focused on the dangers of wealthy entrepreneurs simply passing on their fortune to their children, or other persons and organizations that were not qualified to handle it. Instead of wasting money on frivolous expenses and using it inefficiently, Carnegie argued that such money should be put towards the public good. Thus, even as capitalism could indeed hurt some while benefiting others, poverty could in fact be tackled and solved by the very wealthy businessmen that had contributed to the problem.
Influence of Herbert Spencer on Carnegie
Of all the writers that Carnegie read and studied throughout his life, he said that the English philosopher Herbert Spencer was the one who influenced him most. Spencer's writings provided the philosophical justification for Carnegie's unabashed pursuit of personal riches in the world of business, freeing him from the moral reservations about financial acquisition that he had inherited from his egalitarian Scottish relatives.
In his "Autobiography," Carnegie wrote about the dramatic effect of reading both the naturalist Charles Darwin and Spencer.
"I remember that light came as in a flood and all was clear," Carnegie wrote. "Not only had I got rid of theology and the supernatural, but I had found the truth of evolution. 'All is well since all grows better' became my motto, my true source of comfort."
Spencer adapted Charles Darwin's notion of natural selection and applied the theory to human society in a philosophy that became known as "Social Darwinism." It was Spencer who coined the term "survival of the fittest," using it to apply to the fate of rich and poor in a laissez faire capitalist society. Spencer argued that there was nothing unnatural -- and therefore wrong -- with competing and then rising to the top in a cut- throat capitalist world.
"Spencer told [Carnegie] that it was a scientific fact that somebody like him should be getting to the top," says historian Owen Dudley Edwards. "That there was nothing unnatural about it, wrong about it, evil about it."
Not only was competition in harmony with nature, Spencer believed, but it was also in the interest of the general welfare and progress of society. Many successful capitalists of the late 19th century embraced Spencer's philosophy. These captains of industry used his words as justification to oppose social reform and government intervention. As Spencer said, these would interfere with the natural -- and beneficial -- law of survival.
"The concentration of capital is a necessity for meeting the demands of our day, and as such should not be looked at askance, but be encouraged," Carnegie wrote, paraphrasing Spencer. "There is nothing detrimental to human society in it, but much that is, or is bound soon to become, beneficial."
Yet Carnegie did not follow all of Spencer's teachings, especially Spencer's call for unfettered laissez faire capitalism. Carnegie argued, for example, that if workers were to have an eight-hour day, the state would have to regulate it -- something that Spencer never would have approved. Carnegie also ignored Spencer's complete opposition to philanthropy, as the American business tycoon was one of the great philanthropists of his day. Spencer held that the poor were the unfit who would not survive; Carnegie, however, believed that the poor (such as himself) were often the ones who grew up to become "the epoch-makers."

Appalachia is a multifaceted host with as many different faces as hollows and hills. Some are beautiful, kind, and accepting. Some are filled with hate, and some are caught in between, unsure of where they stand until the line is drawn for them.

This is My Heart for You, the latest work of acclaimed regional author Silas House, refuses this trap, embracing some of the most difficult and complex topics facing modern Appalachia.

SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP) -- Health officials say three Orange County residents who traveled to the Caribbean this year have tested positive for a mosquito-borne virus.
The Orange County Register reported Wednesday (http://bit.ly/1qAoAaX) that the three traveled separately and were diagnosed with chikungunya (CHIK-en-gun-ye) fever between February and July.
The virus is similar to dengue fever. It is transmitted by yellow fever mosquitoes and Asian tiger mosquitoes, which are not commonly found in California but have been detected in some counties recently.
The most common symptoms are fever and painful joints, often affecting the hands and feet. Other symptoms may include headache, muscle pain, joint swelling or rash.
There is no vaccine and no specific treatment. Most people feel better in a week but some may have joint pain for several months or years.

Unanswered questions about the NFL's deal with Verizon: 1) Are CBS (CBS -0.9%) and Fox (NWS -0.8%) getting a free ride out of the arrangement between the NFL and Verizon which will see games steamed live on mobile phones or will it cut into the benefits of their own deal to stream games on devices other than TVs and smartphones? 2) If the deal allows games to be viewed on phones, but not tablets, where will the line be drawn as the two wireless products increasingly resemble each other? 3) Will Verizon (VZ +2.3%) recoup its investment over the long-term as new subscribers stay on board or will the fees subscribers pay for access to the NFL cover the cost? 4) Is DirecTV (DTV +0.2%) the odd man out as its NFL Sunday Ticket package begins to look outdated?

Facebook competitions are the fastest way that I know of to help you build your Facebook fan base. Wildfire Apps have developed a platform that is approved by Facebook and makes it simple to set up your own competition.
This is my first video so apologies for the editing being a little wonky. My competition has been running over a week and I am pleased with the results but I have also learnt that:
- Don't make the question too hard. It doesn't matter if you have 50 entries or 500 entries you are still giving away the same prize. I think I would have had a much higher response rate if I hadn't tried to make it hard.
- To make the competition effective use Facebook adverts. If you change the copy and images on a weekly basis you will keep it fresh. Keep checking back to see what works and stop the adverts that don't.
Do you think you will try a competition for your page? If you have already run a competition I'd love to hear how it worked for you, just comment below.

I installed SQL Server 2008 R2 on 6 machines. They are to be placed in 2 offices, 3 in each. I created a database instance and I used VB6 and was able to link both perfectly. I was also able to connect the machines that share the same network using the IP address. But when I tried to connect machines from the other network, I couldnt. I turned off the Firewall on all machines, made configurations for TCP/IP on all machines.
How should I connect the machines that are from another network?
Can I use the public IP address?
If so, what should I type in the login form on SSMS?

Ali Muhammad Brown, 29, was taken into custody in West Orange, N.J., Seattle police said. No other details about the arrest have been given.
Brown faces two counts of aggravated murder in the first degree in connection with the deaths of 23-year-old Dwone Anderson-Young and 27-year-old Ahmed Said.
According to the charging documents, a resident in the 500 block of 29th Avenue South heard gunshots around 2:30 a.m. June 1 and saw someone drive off in a silver car. Officers arrived and found the victims lying in the street dead from multiple gunshot wounds.
Investigators believe Brown fled to New Jersey after the murders, and police in West Orange said Brown was wanted in connection with an armed robbery and attempted carjacking there on June 29.
Police said both Anderson-Young and Said were innocent victims and have been looking at the incident as a possible anti-gay hate crime. The victims were killed a short time after they left a gay nightclub.

Lesson 1: Knights of the Round
I'm not sure if it's because the recent cool, summer weather that's come by or it's because of the blogging influence of 1uper Aaron B, but during my set up of Game Rig 3 and cleaning the dungeon I found myself in a retro gaming mood. And not just any retro gaming mood but a retro mood that made me interested in trying out some old skool beat-em ups. I can recall in summers pasts where I played these types of games instead of running around outside. Mostly it was an excuse from playing outside by saying it was just too hot to have fun. Yet even when the weather did finally cool down, I found myself still playing these games before the controller was taken away from me and my butt was kicked out of the house.
Even though I played certain types of beat-em ups at the time there was a list of games I wish I could've played. At the time all that I had to play with was an NES and Sega Genesis. But there were some games that made me wish I had those systems to play them on, or just had the pleasure of playing them in the arcades. Yet still every time I would open up my copy of EGM I'd always thumb back to certain preview sections of games and wish I'd be able to play them. Over time I eventually told myself. "One day NSonic79, you will have your day."
Who would've thought that day would come just last week.
Now I've already spoken about the Capcom Classics Collection series for PS2/Xbox before, specifically Vol. 1 for my Top 11 Halloween gaming Lists of old. But this time around I'm focusing on Vol. 2 in part of the fact that it houses a good number of arcade beat-em ups that either I've always wanted to try, never heard of before, or get to relive in all their glory. Sure PS2/Xbox games could be considered "old skool" gaming, and this could be considered cheating when it comes to "retro" gaming. But that's why I bought these complication/anthology/collection copies of these games to begin with. As much as I enjoy retro gaming, I still have to consider the cost in having such a collection. Perhaps one day I might get their NES/SNES/Genesis counterparts, but for now these will do. Also I won't really go that in-depth about these particular games. I'll just leave my thoughts on the game as a paragraph or two in future blogs. (Leaving this blog as the only long one I write).
I remember seeing this in an EGM magazine and just wishing I had an SNES to play this game on. Hell I wish my local arcade had this game besides Final Fight and TMNT: Turtles in Time. But I wasn't able to get either wish and had to instead make due with playing my cousin's copy of a game called "Legend" on his SNES. Though it did have a medieval theme to it, it just wasn't the same as playing as Arthur or one of his Knights of the Round. Just recently I happen upon a store that has a cart only copy of this game. I thought about getting it but figured I could wait. I have this game thanks to this capcom collection!
But now I've had the chance and I have to say it was an enjoyable beat-em up. Like most games of it's type it has a heath gauge and the classic controls you come to expect. Personally I don't think the health gauge does the game much justice. Instead of being able to handle some punishment, if your taken to the ground three times your done. And with the usual increase of difficulty as you progress you'll be seeing the continue screen a lot. No Streets of Rage type longevity here. But then again it was an arcade game so what should I expect. If anything being able to mount a horse helps. As well as being able to level up your character's weapon and armor is a nice addition. As a whole the game delivers! You have your medieval theme, sword fighting with other knights, rogues, and the usual medieval types of the era. Sadly no mythical creatures.
It does make me wonder if the SNES port is different from this one. Perhaps one day I'll find out but until then I can at least scratch this game off as a title I swore I'd play later when I grew up got older found it. Or even better, have some friends who can come over and play with me in three player mode. Now THAT would be fun!

I came across a comment in some code referring to said code being "I18N safe".
What does this refer to?
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.
I came across a comment in some code referring to said code being "I18N safe".
What does this refer to?
I + (some 18 characters) + N = InternationalizatioN
I18N safe means that steps were taken during design and development that will facilitate Localization (L10N) at a later point.
This is most often referred to a code or construct ready for I18N - i.e easily supported by common I18N techniques. For instance, the following is ready:
while the following is not:
because the word order may vary in different languages. Unicode support, international date-time formatting and the like also qualify.
EDIT: added loadResourceString to make an example close to real life.
I18N stands for Internationalization.
Internationalization. The derivation of it is "the letter I, eighteen letters, the letter N".
i18n means i**nternationalizatio**n => i (18 letters) n. Code that's marked as i18n safe would be code that correctly handles non-ASCII character data (e.g. Unicode).
i18n is a shorthand for "internationalization". This was coined at DEC and actually uses lowercase i and n.
As a sidenote: L10n stands for "localization" and uses capital L to distinguish it from the lowercase i.
Without any additional information, I would guess that it means the code handles text as UTF8 and is locale-aware. See this Wikipedia article for more information.
Can you be a bit more specific?
i18n-safe is a vague concept. It generally refers to code that will work in international environments - with different locale, keyboard, character sets etc. True i18n-safe code is hard to write.
It means that code cannot rely on:
because that character could be a UTF-32 4-byte character, or a UTF-16 2-byte character, and occupy multiple bytes.
It means that code cannot rely on the length of a string equalling the number of bytes in a string. It means that code cannot rely on zero bytes in a string indicating a nul terminator. It means that code cannot simply assume ASCII encoding of text files, strings, and inputs.
I18N stands for Internationalization.
In a nutshell: I18N safe code means that it uses some kind of a lookup table for texts on the UI. For this you have to support non-ASCII encodings. This might seem to be easy, but there are some gotchas.
i18n deals with - moving hard coded strings out of the code (not all should be by the way) so they can be localized/translated (localization == L10n), as others have pointed out, and also deals with - locale sensitive method, such as --methods dealing with text handling (how many words in a Japanese text is far obvious:), order/collation in different languages/writing systems, --dealing with date/time (the simplest example is showing am/pm for the US, 24 h clocks for France for instance, going to more complex calendars for specific countries), --dealing with arabic or hebrew (orientation of UI, of text, etc.), --encoding as others have pointed out --database issues it's a fairly comprehensive angle. Just dealing with "String externalization" is far from enough.
Some (software) languages are better than others in helping developers write i18n code (meaning code which will run on different locales), but it remains a software engineering responsibility.

Safe Riders! Campaign Celebrates 20th Anniversary!
The Safe Riders! You Make Snowmobiling Safe© safety campaign was initiated in 1995 through a partnership with the snowmobile manufacturer members of ISMA – Arctic Cat, BRP, Polaris, and Yamaha and the state and provincial snowmobile associations and clubs located throughout the snow-belt of North America. The goal of the campaign is to keep safety a 'top of mind awareness' subject while snowmobiling. The content of the campaign was created with input from all corners of the snowmobile world and continues to live and grow in ideas and outreach.
Effective engagement with members of congress
For the past 15 years I have felt it necessary to make regular trips to Washington DC to promote snowmobile enthusiasts' access to public lands.
These trips, initially prompted by the Clinton Administration's proposed ban on snowmobiles in all National Parks, have given me a healthy perspective on the challenges facing those who petition Congress on behalf of "special interests."
"Snowmobiling"a unique partnership between the manufacturers and their customers
The Snowmobile Manufacturers have a unique relationship with their customer base. The relationships and the friendships begin on the trails and in the mountains. The manufacturer employees, beginning with the Chief Executive Officers, Marketing Managers, Accountants, and Production Teams love to snowmobile.
Snowmobile Sales Continue to Grow in North America
The International Snowmobile Manufacturers are pleased to report that snowmobile sales in North America.

Apparently I made some mistake in applying role capabilities.
When i log in at the admin level it is showing the stripped down dashboard with missing menus. One of the missing menus is the AAM menu itself so now I can't go back in and reset the roles back to their default.
I've tried deactivating, deleting and reinstalling the plugin but it keeps the same settings as before the deletion. I assume that the plugin must be keeping the tables associated with it even upon deletion but I can't find the tables in the database.
I really like this plugin and would like to use it but this is frustrating me. I just want to start all over with editing the AAM settings so I can use this plugin. PLEASE HELP!!

These boots look really nice in the picture but are terrible! They are cheaply made from stiff material. The foot part is boxy and stiff. I will definitely be returning them. What a disappointment !
08/02/2013By SHAY
I am 5'5 and in 8th grade and the boots fit horribly! The calf's were too wide and the boots were too tall! I would not recommend these boots for younger people like me! It fit my foot as I am a regular size but nowhere else! They also are not very well made with the material... it scratches very easily. I would only recommend these boots for adults.

Politics Velazquez Closes In On Harrell
posted by July 17 at 12:03 PMon
Venus Velazquez, who had been trailing behind opponent Bruce Harrell in fundraising for City Council Position 3 (retiring CM Peter Steinbrueck's seat), saw a substantial funding boost in the last six weeks, according to records filed with the city's Ethics and Elections Commission. Since the end of May, Velazquez has raised $29,716; Harrell, the other leading contender for the open seat, has raised $24,078. Velazquez's better-than-usual numbers close the funding gap between her campaign and Harrell's from $23,102 to $17,644—a feat that's more impressive than it sounds, given that Harrell has the support of Seattle's developer and business establishment, including the Chamber of Commerce's political arm, the Alki Foundation; the Seattle/ King County Association of Realtors; and the Rental Housing Association of Washington. Velazquez, meanwhile, has the endorsements of several labor groups, the Washington State Women's Political Caucus, Steinbrueck, and three local Democratic districts (one of which is a dual endorsement with Harrell.) The 43rd District Democrats will meet tonight to make their picks in city and county races; I'll report on what they decide tomorrow.

The life and times of William Stewart Halsted have become a blend of fact and sometimes fiction. Lost in this hagiographic haze are certain true aspects of his upbringing, family life, and professional activities. Whether Halsted remains as monumental a figure in the evolution of American surgery as he is presently perceived, remains a matter of historical inquiry. For instance, the important consideration of Halsted's independent wealth and its impact on his ability to accept a "full-time" faculty position at The Johns Hopkins Hospital is a question of interest. Newly available information shows that Halsted's father, William Mills Halsted, Jr, was involved in numerous financial irregularities centered around the family's business, Halsted, Haines & Co. Among the father's alleged misconduct was the apparent embezzlement and fraudulent assignment of company funds. Included in these abuses was, at the time of the firm's bankruptcy, the providing of "preference loans" to William Stewart Halsted, which became the basis for the surgeon's later affluence. (Arch Surg. 1996;131:123-127)

By Appointing Three New Judges, Jim Foster Is Out to "Control Truancy in Dallas County"
I honestly can't recall ever receiving a press release from Dallas County Judge Jim Foster. But mere moments ago, up popped this item in the in-box: "Dallas County Gains Three New Truancy Magistrates." The full release follows, but the short version is Foster has appointed former Civil District Court Judge Charles Stokes, Colleen Doolin Skinner and Joshua H. Northam to help clear the dockets clogging up the county's five truancy courts. (The release says the judges can hear "between 200-300 cases a day.")
Says Foster, "We absolutely must continue to address the problem of truancy. And not let up. When children are not in school most likely they are on the street and we know what kind of education the street provides." Do we ever.
Dallas County Judge Jim Foster has selected three new part time truancy court magistrates to help alleviate the crowded dockets in the five truancy courts that serve school districts throughout Dallas County. Former Civil District Court Judge Charles Stokes, Colleen Doolin Skinner and Joshua H. Northam were appointed by Judge Foster. The new magistrates will begin observing in the truancy courts as soon as next week.
"We absolutely must continue to address the problem of truancy. And not let up. When children are not in school most likely they are on the street and we know what kind of education the street provides." Judge Foster said at the swearing in at Commissioners Court today.
The truancy courts are under the direction of the County Judge and Judge Foster is determined to create a model system to benefit the citizens of Dallas County. Along with the current five courts there are plans to add a sixth court in the Grand Prairie -- Irving area in the near future.
Truancy court magistrates, by law, must be licensed lawyers and have practiced four years prior to appointment. The new part time magistrates will sit whenever a need arises.
"The full time judges have vacation time and continuing legal education courses they must attend. The courts are not serving the citizens if they are dark, hence the need for the part time judges to fill in and keep control of the dockets. Sometimes these judges hear 200-300 cases a day so understandably it's important to keep the cases moving." Judge Foster added. "We are making great progress in the effort to control truancy in Dallas County."

I'd like to be able to turn my screen off from command line.
I know there's the keyboard shortcut ctrl+⇧+⏏ but I want to do it from a shell script or remotely.

I'd like to be able to turn my screen off from command line.
I know there's the keyboard shortcut ctrl+⇧+⏏ but I want to do it from a shell script or remotely.
Is there a way?
In OS X 10.9, you can simply do
Escalated privileges don't seem to be required (at least with recent versions of OS X), but if you get a message about inadequate privileges, you could do
Based on feedback from commenters, this is not available in OS X 10.8 or earlier.
While I haven't been able to find a command that will sleep the display natively, there is an app you download that will do it. There are two options from here.
Hope this helps!
The following script will do the job (in Leopard and later), but it must be run with sudo:
The premise is that pmset can set a time until display sleep, but the problem is that a value of 0 turns the feature off, rather than setting the delay to zero, and a value of 1 is a full one minute delay. The magic here is that a value of 2^31 seems to be stored as negative zero, which magically functions as "turn the display off immediately". In Tiger and earlier, a different magic number was needed, because a different bit-sized variable was used internally to store the delay, in minutes, until the display turns off.
This mimics the behavior of control-shift-eject, and can be used on MacBook Airs without an eject key.
Here's a simple shell script that will do it.
This will run/start whatever settings you have enabled for Screen Saver on that computer.
Run the following command to execute a short AppleScript that puts the display to sleep:
The command name suggests that it might put the entire system to sleep under some circumstances, but I could not make that happen in limited testing: I tested it with a shell script I started shortly before executing this command, and that was running for a few minutes until I "awoke" the system. It had continued to print output during the entire time.
Really hope this answer isn't too off the beaten track. My favourite way to sleep, restart, shut down - and most importantly lock - a Mac is using Alfred (the app launcher).
It doesn't require any scripts, knowledge of scripts or use of terminal, which is brilliant.
However, if you specifically WANT to use terminal, this probably isn't the solution for you.
You could use the
(requires root)
Take a look at the open source github project maclock
By default, it just launches the screensaver, but you can put the display to sleep with:
Under the covers, it is a bash script that is essentially just calling:
Well, this is an old one, but it seems there aren't really good answers for this question anywhere.
I've gotten an AppleScript to work, though it requires a third-party, unmaintained, and un-registrable app—Extra Suites. It can be downloaded on the developer's old website.
I've also incorporated it into an Alfred Workflow.
I did it with
Note that you will need administrator privilege to do this though.
Using Alfred (free at the AppStore) is a great way to put the display to sleep by just writing: "sleep". Doesn't get simpler than that.
Of course Alfred does much more than that, you can also restart, logout, empty trash, lock, shutdown and many more things.
No need extra app, just use

The Accident
Jan. 28 2012
This review is from:
The Accident (Paperback)
Glenn Garber is beside himself. His wife Sheila, mother of his eight year old daughter Kelly, is dead, the result of a horrific car accident. Worse still the officer at the scene believes that Sheila is responsible for the accident that claimed the lives of two others. He wants Glenn to accept that his wife was driving under the influence, with an overwhelming amount of vodka in her system. This simply makes no sense. Sheila would never do something that stupid! As the coroner's report confirms the officer's initial assessment of Sheila's condition Glenn's disbelief and grief morphs into rage and an all consuming anger aimed at his dead wife. How could she have done something that stupid, that thoughtless, that final? How can he possibly explain this to Kelly?
After the funeral, life resumes it's new, normal rhythms. His daughter Kelly is having trouble at school, being ostracized by her fellow students where one of the other victims of the accident was also a student. Fortunately she still has one loyal friend and Glenn has agreed to let her attend a sleepover there. His anger has subsided now and what remains is an unyielding reluctance to accept the apparent facts surrounding Sheila's death. But now Kelly is on the phone begging her father to come and get her immediately! What she tells him when he picks her up becomes the first link in a series of troubling events that propell Glenn forward into a vortex of seething corruption. Secret after dangerous secret emerges in his small, home town in Conneticut, complete with threats from neighbours and friends alike and now, well now he is being hunted by total strangers! As he digs deeper to understand and uncover the real truth Glenn must find a terrifying place within himself in order to protect his daughter and avenge his wife's death.
The Accident roars forward at a breathless, pulsating pace that brings this domestic thriller to a chilling climax you won't see coming.

Robopocalypse: A Novel (Hardcover)
I started this story with a gentle yet persistent trepidation. It took me a while to adjust to robospeak and slowly, familiarize myself with (on a very shallow level, toes dipped so to speak) the technical terminology.
Somewhere along the way, somewhat surprisingly, I became invested in this story and it's many occupants, human and well, not. Suddenly the outcome of this war mattered, the story mattered, it mattered a lot.
It's somewhat eerie, I think, that the storyteller holds a PHD in robotics......

State of Wonder

This review is from:
State of Wonder (Paperback)
This marks the third time that I have dipped into the writing pool of Ann Patchett and let me tell you, she does not disappoint!
Dr. Marina Singh embarks on a trip to Brazil in an effort to determine two things: What happened to her colleague, who had died there scant weeks ago and what kind of progress was being made by her former mentor in the development of a new fertility drug that was being funded by her pharmaceutical company. Both of these tasks prove to be most complex and difficult to acheive. Her former mentor's work is at the center of her journey and involves a little known tribe of people whose ability to procreate extends well into their seventies and proves to be as closely linked to their life's rituals as the environment in which they live.
Patchett is such a fine writer that you become an unseen guest on this quest into the Amazon rain forest. Encounters with cannibals, poison arrows, humongous anacondas, pyschedelic fungi and the ever incessant, insect infested jungle. OH MY! This one left me in a State of Wonder.

11/22/63: A Novel (Hardcover)
Stephen King is a master storyteller. We all know this. So I should not have been surprised to have been swept away from the get go and taken to the Land of Ago, but I was. I was! I walked with Jake Epping through the 50s and 60s and into my own past.
11/22/63 as the title implies is a story centered on one, of the far too many, watershed moments of our lives: the assassination of John F Kennedy. Jake Epping, a middle aged high school teacher reads a story by one of his adult students, a gruesome, heart wrenching, true story, that brings him to tears, not a common response; no wait an extremely rare, response from Jake. Shortly thereafter Jake receives a call from a local diner owner, who has a portal to the past to show him and a story to tell. He also has cancer and is enlisting Jake to act on his behalf, go back in time and save John F. Kennedy. But this is King so there are rules and Jake now has his own little bit of history that he would like to see changed.
I was taken on a journey by the King's own hand, held captive from cover to cover. And beyond! I'm not going to go in to this story. If you want a fantastic experience read it for yourselves, because it is King's story that you need to hear. Let me just say that in his masterful hands you are transported in time to the late 50's, early 60's and that he is spot on! Everything is slower, simpler, a time of Glenn Miller and swing, with 59 Chevy's and fins that went on forever! Cleaner air, unpreserved, delicious home cooking, friendly, trusting people, no cell phones, pre -Vietnam America! Camelot! Of course there is the other side of this era, from which King does not shy away: racism, domestic violence, cold wars and every ounce of oxygen polluted with first and second hand smoke. The Land of Ago born again: festering wounds and scabs intact.
What if you could go back in time and change the course of history, prevent one of those watershed moments of your own from ever happening? Would you? And if you did, what new history would take its place? As King shows us the past is obdurate, it does not want to change.
For me, this is that watershed moment. I remember everything about the day that JFK was assassinated; where I was, what I was doing, wearing, eating and thinking throughout the course of this historic day, even though I was still but a mere child. Ever since then I have wondered, on and off, many times, over the years, what life would be like if JKF had survived.
11/22/63 has now become my new all time favourite Stephen King book! It has reawakened in me everything that I have always loved about King's stories. I need more, no doubt about that. So I have physically cleared a spot for 11/22/63 on my top shelf. No doubt it will dwell there for a long, long time.
In the end all you really need to know is: Read It! Read It! Read It!

Strangers on a Train
Jan. 10 2012
This review is from:
Strangers On a Train (Paperback)
I went into this already familiar with Hitchcock's film version of the same story. The opening premise of the film and HighSmith's novel are the same. Two strangers meet on the train and discuss among other things, people in their lives: a Wife, a Father, who they would be better off without. One of these strangers, Charles Bruno, is an extremely well imagined sociopath, while the other, Guy, is a mild mannered architect whose role in this story I never entirely accept. Bruno murders Guy's wife, even though Guy never agreed to this plan. Now he is pressuring Guy to do his part and eliminate Bruno's Father.
After this setup the film and the book are very different. The book delves into the conscience of Bruno and Guy and takes you into their heads. While at first interesting this became quite tedious.
Then again it could be that I simply preferred Hitchcock's adaptation.

A Game of Thrones: A Song of Ice and Fire: Book One (Paperback)
WOW! What to say, this really is just a great story, one that you can sink right into. As the cover suggests it grabs hold and does not let go! Almost from the beginning I became invested in this grand masterpiece of modern fantasy and in all the many people that populate it's pages. Early on... this feeling came over me, that I was about to be swept away into a long, magical and wondrous adventure that would take me deep into the histories of these people, exploring their lands; their pain and pride and love riding rough shod over my own emotions. These characters are so well written and their peronalities so deftly revealed through their unique perspectives that it is easy to forget that I have come to know them only through the hand of the author himself. The writing is absolutely brilliant, so much so, that it is almost completely transparent, allowing you to feel as though you are actually there, living and feeling and feeding, vicariously through it's cast of characters. Truly all of my senses have been awakened, stimulated and satiated simultaneously, leaving me breathless, shaking and thirsting for more.
I suggest you drop whatever you are doing and run, quickly mind you, to get this book. No doubt it is destined to stand as a masterwork.

Commitment May Be Good for You
Dec. 7, 2005 -- People in committed relationships are happier than people who aren't, and married people may be the happiest of all.
A new study shows people who are married report the highest levels of well-being, regardless of whether they are happily married or not.
"Even when controlling for relationship happiness, being married is associated with higher self-esteem, greater life satisfaction, greater happiness, and less distress," says researcher Claire Kamp Dush, a postdoctoral fellow at the Institute for Social Sciences at Cornell University, in a news release.
Next in line on the happiness scale were people who were co-habitating in committed relationships, followed by those in stable relationships and those casually dating.
"In general, people appear to feel better about themselves and their lives when they move into a more committed relationship," says Kamp Dush. "Some commitment appears to be good, but more commitment appears to be even better."
Commitment Is Healthy
In the study, published in the Journal of Social and Personal Relationships, researchers analyzed information from 691 young adults who were surveyed in 1992 and 1997. About 30% were married and 8% were co-habitating with a partner at the time of the first survey.
Researchers assessed overall well-being using measures of self-esteem, life satisfaction, general happiness, and distress symptoms.
The results showed that married people reported the highest well-being and happiness, while people who dated infrequently or not at all reported the lowest.
Researchers say the study confirms that having a romantic relationship makes both men and women happier, and the stronger the relationship's commitment, the greater the well-being and happiness of the partners.
The finding that people in relatively unhappy marriages appeared to benefit from being married perhaps stemmed from the stability, commitment, and social status of the relationship, the researchers say.
In addition, the study showed that that people who reported lower levels of well-being and happiness during the first survey were more likely to move into more committed relationships by the second survey, and those who did reported greater happiness.
"If they were using committed relationships as a strategy to improve their well-being, it appeared to work," says Kamp Dush.

In 1933, John Lomax and his young son Alan traveled by car to a number of prisons scattered throughout Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Tennessee. In the nation's most restricted spaces, they recorded African-American convicts, who Lomax thought would be some of the last singers of traditional folk material due to the isolation of the institutions that held them. As a result of this fieldwork, we now have access to a multitude of powerful songs, both well and little known, which provide some understanding of this folk group during the era of Jim Crow in America's South.

"St. Hubert at Wijchmaal" Wijchmaal by ATLC
Wijchmaal Travel Guide: 2 reviews and 6 photos
Today is St. Hubert. All the farm animals and dogs were blessed by a priest and then we made a long walk. Our dog's breeder invited us. Quite a new experience for me. My dog Joep (Airedale terrier) is 9 months old now and we met most of his siblings again today. Far cry from those little rats they were 8 months ago.
We finished off at a big tent, drinks and lunched on bread, black
pudding and apple sauce. Delicious.
The photo here shows Airedale Terriers of all ages and sizes from one breeder.
Horses and carriages were there too.
Lots of nice views during the walk

The newly married Jyoti Makker (with actor Ajay Chaudhary) will be seen in an episodic of Life OK's Savdhan India- India Fights Back. This particular story is being produced by Ajay Devgn's Baba Arts.
As per a reliable source, the story is based on domestic violence and Jyoti plays a victim in it.
She will be seen as a simple working woman with a child, having an abusive husband. She will tolerate her husband's abusive nature but will revolt when the atrocity will grip her child.
We contacted Jyoti to know about her comeback on TV soon after her marriage mid-last month (January 2013) and she said, "I am newly married and as per Hindi traditions one has to wear chudas (bangles) for a certain time period. But for the shooting, the creatives asked me to get them off. Dilemma struck me but on pondering a bit, I decided to stick to the norms and requirements of the script."
Jyoti has started reading her lines from today (5 February 2013).
The episodic should air sometime next week.
The show has been witnessing several entries and exits recently..
After essaying negative roles in various shows, the actor is all set ...

- 1/3 cup canola oil, or corn oil
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 2 cups yogurt cheese, made from 48 ounces low-fat yogurt
- 8 ounces low-fat cream cheese, softened
- 4 eggs, at room temperature, well beaten

Mixed Fruit Topping
- 4 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon honey
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 cup fresh cherries, pitted
- 12 strawberries, quartered lengthwise
- To make crust: Butter and chill a 9-inch spring-form pan. Mix all ingredients together. Press into the bottom and 1 1/2 inches up the sides of the pan. Chill at least 15 minutes.
- To make cheesecake: Preheat oven to 300°F. Beat together yogurt cheese, cream cheese, eggs, sugar, lemon juice and peel with an electric mixer. Stir in yogurt. Spoon mixture carefully into the crust-lined pan.
- Bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until the center sets. Cool in the over with the door ajar for 1 hour. Refrigerate 3 hours or more and unmold.
- To make topping: Combine 2 tablespoon honey and 1 tablespoon cornstarch in small saucepan. Blend well, add blueberries and boil gently 2 to 3 minutes until mixture clears. Remove from heat and cool.

Green Bay Packers
Green Bay Packers news, rumors and injuries
Packers | Jeff Janis receiving high-level education
Sat, 30 Jul 2016 15:32:30 -0700
Green Bay Packers WR Jeff Janis has been a pet project of sorts for QB Aaron Rodgers early in training camp, according to quarterbacks coach Alex Van Pelt. "Working with the young receivers, (Rodgers has been) great. He'll go over after his set of reps and talk through it with them, especially with Jeff (Janis). They're getting a good relationship now, working together and talking about what they expect from each other," Van Pelt said.
Fantasy Tip: Janis is fighting with Davante Adams for the No. 3 job behind Jordy Nelson and Randall Cobb. It has been a fantasy-relevant position for some time in Green Bay and has taken on added importance with Nelson dealing with tendinitis in his non-surgically repaired left knee at the moment. Janis is an athletic freak who has reportedly struggled early in camp, but this kind of report lends support to the possibility he may be on the verge of breaking out soon. He's well worth a gamble in the final rounds on draft day.

Packers | Richard Rodgers trimmed down
Fri, 29 Jul 2016 21:16:05 -0700
Green Bay Packers TE Richard Rodgers weighed in at 258 pounds for the start of training camp after playing at 275 pounds last year, and he said his lighter frame makes it easier for him to come in and out of his breaks at the same speed.
Fantasy Tip: The return of Jordy Nelson and the addition of Jared Cook will make it tough for Rodgers to duplicate his 58-catch performance from last year. Don't expect him to be a starting-caliber fantasy tight end.

Packers | Nick Perry practices with first-team defense
Fri, 29 Jul 2016 19:11:10 -0700
Green Bay Packers LB Nick Perry took snaps with the first-team defense at practice Friday, July 29, opposite LB Clay Matthews. The team wants Perry to play more snaps this year in an attempt to lessen the workload of LB Julius Peppers, so that the 36-year-old veteran won't wear down near the end of the season.

Packers | Eddie Lacy accelerating
Fri, 29 Jul 2016 09:25:22 -0700
Green Bay Packers RB Eddie Lacy has been finishing runs and showing the acceleration he had early in his career, according to running backs coach Ben Sirmans.
Fantasy Tip: Lacy is probably going to split the load with James Starks. Both should be in the RB3 discussion, but Lacy has the ability to win a lion's share at some point.

Packers | No timetable for Ty Montgomery
Wed, 27 Jul 2016 16:23:31 -0700
Green Bay Packers WR Ty Montgomery (ankle) said he does not have a definite timetable for his return to practice but does say that his ankle feels great. Montgomery will have to compete for a roster spot when he is activated from the Physically Unable to Perform list.
Fantasy Tip: Montgomery said being placed on the PUP list was a precautionary move, so there is a chance that he will be able to practice soon. He has not done much in the offense over the last few years and should not be selected in fantasy drafts if he makes the team.

Packers | Randall Cobb references Pokemon GO
Tue, 26 Jul 2016 22:59:17 -0700
Green Bay Packers WR Randall Cobb was at practice Tuesday, July 26, and was apparently bitten by Pokemon GO craziness in the offseason. "As a receiver group, we consider ourselves playing Pokemon right now. We're trying to catch them all. We're going to go out there and try making as many plays as we can," Cobb said.
Fantasy Tip: Fantasy owners hope Cobb can be like a Vaporeon or a Snorlax with a CP of 1,500 or more tearing up opposing gyms. For those who aren't millennials or playing the game with their kids, it means fantasy owners hope Cobb can rack up 100 or more receptions, 10 touchdowns and continue to be a WR1/2 in all formats.

Packers | No timetable for Jared Cook
Tue, 26 Jul 2016 22:58:27 -0700
Green Bay Packers TE Jared Cook (foot) does not have a timetable for a return from foot surgery, although a league source said Tuesday, July 26, that he might be on track to return by the second week of preseason.
Fantasy Tip: Cook is behind Richard Rodgers on the depth chart, and not expected to be a fantasy target for most owners unless Rodgers suffers some sort of a long-term injury.

Packers | Eddie Lacy still rather heavy
Tue, 26 Jul 2016 22:57:08 -0700
Green Bay Packers RB Eddie Lacy was a bit slimmer on the first day of training camp Tuesday, July 26, then he was for organized team activities (OTAs). He went back to P90X trainer Tony Horton for a second time this offseason, getting down to an estimated 240 pounds according to beat writer Pete Dougherty.
Fantasy Tip: Lacy was a huge disappointment in 2015, as his conditioning was called into question, and many likely will have a sour taste in their mouth as a result. He has first-round fantasy ability, but the fact he is working on his weight again is not a great sign. When he is healthy and in tip-top shape, he is a great fantasy option, especially in leagues which reward points per reception (PPR). However, make sure to have plenty of depth at the position.

Packers | Jordy Nelson tweaked other knee
Tue, 26 Jul 2016 10:28:51 -0700
Updating a previous report, Green Bay Packers WR Jordy Nelson (knee) said he was placed on the Physically Unable to Perform list because he tweaked his other knee, and not his knee that required season-ending surgery last year. Nelson added Week 1 is not in jeopardy, but he does not know when he will be ready to practice during training camp.
Fantasy Tip: On the surface, this sounds like a positive, but if Nelson is limited during training camp because both knees aren't 100%, it's a concern. Over the long haul, Nelson projects to finish as a No. 1 fantasy wide receiver, but he might not be the safest option in the first two rounds of drafts, either. The upside and floor are both there, but it's likely ill-advised to expect a 2014 output from the 31-year-old veteran. This is a situation to monitor over the coming weeks.

Packers | Aaron Rodgers talks weight loss
Tue, 26 Jul 2016 10:20:20 -0700
Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers said he weighs less than he has in a long time, but his muscle mass is as strong as it was when he was 10 pounds heavier.
Fantasy Tip: Rodgers remains an elite fantasy quarterback worth selecting as one of the first signal callers in drafts. It's likely not worth reading too much into his weight, but a commitment to health and being at his best entering his age-32 season is encouraging for his likelihood to live up to expectations in 2016.
