Five years without another attack. That's a lot. Vice President Cheney reminded us yesterday on Meet the Press that it's no coincidence.
"We haven't been attacked in [blank] years" is a popular refrain in the Republican strategy of tormenting us all with their mighty Fear Stick whenever we fall out of lockstep. They use this refrain to justify Iraq, torture, wiretaps and their pathetic security record. It's a sad talking point from an administration that disgraces and exploits the victims of 9/11 every chance it gets. It's like that abusive husband who, while beating his wife, excuses his actions by blaming his abusive parents.
But what about 1998? Between the February 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center and, five years later in February 1998, we weren't attacked either. Five years without an attack. That's a lot. And we managed for five years without torturing, without a unilateral invasion, without illegal wiretaps and without deliberately inducing a nationwide panic attack with orange alerts.
How can that be? Five years without Vice President Cheney. Five years without President Bush, Al Gonzales and Abu Ghraib. Five years without our mighty neocon protectors!
Sure, the African embassy bombings occurred later in 1998 and the USS Cole bombing happened a full eight years after the first WTC bombing. They weren't attacks on American soil, but they were attacks nevertheless.
Yet in this current five year span, nearly 30,000 Americans have been killed or wounded in more attacks than we can count. In this current five year span, many Americans have willingly handed over their personal liberties because, in the land of the free and the brave, we're scared -- terrified, if you will. The damage to America due to the agenda of this administration is almost too multifold to detail without any degree of effectiveness. Our ports aren't secured. Our president has given up on finding Bin Laden and endorsed amnesty for Iraqi insurgents and Taliban fugitives. At the airport, our security officials are unable to determine the difference between a Capri Sun and liquid explosives. And our first responders continue to operate without the proper funding and hardware.
There will probably be more terrorist attacks here and abroad. That's the nature of a world in which human beings, in an evolutionary sense, possess the capacity to commit murder. At the same time, people will continue to kidnap white girls at island resorts. People will continue to abuse their children and pets. People will rob, cheat, steal, kill, burn, loot, deceive and neglect. There's nothing that President Bush can do about it, and even less you can do about it other than to lead your life as an American -- a member of a free society in which your chance of dying, naturally or otherwise, is 100 percent. The alternative, as we've witnessed in the last five years, is to live in constant terror. And, by definition, that's an alternative in which the terrorists truly "win".
Vice President Cheney says it's no coincidence.
It absolutely is.

Wondering if anyone could clear things up for me...
What are the majority of people banking?
I see a lot of New Grange/Bronze Age and The Gallery Q being mentioned. But as for European, I'm lost.
From what I can see from past papers, Surrealism (Dali) or Cubism (Picasso) usually come up, one way or another. Do you think it'd would be okay just to learn the two of them, go over Gothic/Romanesque, Giotto, and maybe an Inpressionist (perhaps, Monet)? Or is that being a bit too specific?
Starting to really stress out now...any help would be a big help!
Early christian era always is guaranteed.. Most people are predicting Bronze Age considering Iron age came up last year also. But I wouldnt fully rule out Newgrange either.
The Gallery Q is always guaranteed too, so it's the safest bet. I learn off a detailed essay and just twist it around then to suit the question asked.
I'm kinda screwed with the European art, if the likes of Bottichelli came up i'd be thrilled.. Romanesque and Gothic are definites so maybe learn those and the sculptures like The Last Judgement and Well Of Moses. Giotto and Masaccio both came up in the pres so maybe theres a chance they'll make an appearance. If youre not too keen on Romanesque I'd say focus on Giotto and maybe Impressionism yeah.
If you're stuck for notes the Kahn Academy on youtube do pretty decent discussions on the European stuff.
Remember that question 14 (or 15 not sure) is pretty open. Like they ask on one artist or a theme and you can pick what you like, and the second part is often discussing an artist from that period too. So if the Q is a good one tomorrow you could get lucky.
Raphael is rumoured to come up in european, i have made out some notes if you want them? also knowing gothic and romanesque v well will get you through that section
newgrange , bronze age artefacts like gold disc and lanula, maybe manuscripts to be safe, european i would do massacio , giotto and michaelgelo, appreciation i normally do what ever question can be answered
just know gothic and romanesque really well

Laughing at Life 2
Government Work Joke
Three contractors are bidding to fix a broken fence at the White House. One is from Chicago, another is from Tennessee, and the third is from Minnesota. All three go with a White House official to examine the fence. The Minnesota contractor takes out a tape measure and does some measuring, then works some figures with a pencil. "Well," he says, "I figure the job will run about $900. $400 for materials, $400 for my crew, and $100 profit for me." The Tennessee contractor also does some measuring and figuring, then says, "I can do this job for $700. $300 for materials, $300 for my crew, and $100 profit for me." The Chicago contractor doesn't measure or figure, but leans over to the White House official and whispers, "$2,700." The official, incredulous, says, "You didn't even measure like the other guys! How did you come up with such a high figure?" The Chicago contractor whispers back, "$1000 for me, $1000 for you, and we hire the guy from Tennessee to fix the fence." "Done!" replies the government official. And that, my friends, is how the new stimulus plan will work.
Gay Funeral Joke
After being married for twenty years to his lover, a gay man dies. When the funeral arrangements have been set, the widower approaches the undertaker with a peculiar request, "I know we had plans to cremate his body, but will you please chop him up and put him in a extra spicy curry instead?" The undertaker asks, "Why would you want that?" The gay widower replies, "So he will blow my ass out one more time."
The Boondock Saints: Rocco's Joke
So there's a black guy, a white guy, and a Mexican. They find a genie's lamp, they rub it, and poof appears the genie! The genie goes to the black guy and asks, "What's your one wish?" The black guy goes, "I wish for me and all my people to be back in Africa, happy and everything." So poof! His wish is granted. Then, the genie goes to the Mexican and asks, "What's your one wish?" The Mexican goes, "I wish for me and all my people to be in Mexico, happy and everything." So poof! His wish is granted. Now, the genie goes over to the white guy and asks, "What's your one wish?" and the white guy asks, "You mean to tell me that all the black and Mexican people are out of America?" The genie replies, "Yes." So the white guy goes, "Then I'll have a Coke."
Homeless Drunk Dude Joke
There was this homeless drunk dude laying in an alley talking out loud saying, "I wish had another drink." He then passed out. As he was saying that, a gay dude was walking by and heard him. When the gay guy came back, he f*cked the homeless guy and put three dollars in his pocket. The homeless dude woke up later and found the money, ran to the liquor store, and said, "Give me the cheapest half of pint you have," and went back to his spot, drunk it and passed out again. The gay dude came back, f*cked the homeless dude again, and left five dollars. He ran back to the liquor store and said, "Give me the cheapest pint you have," and went back to his spot. The gay dude came back again. Once he saw the homeless man passed out, he f*cked him again and left eight dollars The homeless dude woke up and realized he had some more money. He ran back to the liquor store, and before he could say a word, the owner said, "I know, you want the cheapest pint you can get," and the homeless dude said, "No, give me the most expensive half you got. That cheap liquor is tearing my ass up."
Little Johnny Marriage Joke
A teacher is teaching a class and she sees that Johnny isn't paying attention, so she asks him, "If there are three ducks sitting on a fence, and you shoot one, how many are left?" Johnny says, "None." The teacher asks, "Why?" Johnny says, "Because the shot scared them all off." The teacher says, "No, two, but I like how you're thinking." Johnny asks the teacher, "If you see three women walking out of an ice cream parlor, one is licking her ice cream, one is sucking her ice cream, and one is biting her ice cream, which one is married?" The teacher says, "The one sucking her ice cream." Johnny says, "No, the one with the wedding ring, but I like how you're thinking!"

[authors: Tom Crane and Brian Dunphy]
On September 19th, the Massachusetts Department of Public Health ("DPH") published emergency amendments to its regulations, 105 CMR 970.000 et seq. ("Proposed Regulations"), designed to implement recent changes to the Massachusetts Pharmaceutical and Medical Device Manufacturer Code of Conduct, M.G.L. c. 111N (the "Gift Ban Law"). The amendments to the Gift Ban Law were discussed in more detail in a previous post. Although the Gift Ban Law's strict prohibitions on payments and other transfers of value to health care practitioners ("HCPs") remain largely intact, the Gift Ban Law now permits pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturers covered by the Gift Ban Law ("Manufacturers") to:
In addition, Manufacturers no longer must disclose certain information to DPH if they have made disclosures required by the federal Physician Payments Sunshine Act ("Sunshine Act"). The effective date of the Proposed Regulations is September 19, 2012, but DPH will hold a public hearing on October 19, 2012, and will accept testimony until October 26, 2012, as described below.
Modest Meals and Refreshments
Before the amendments to the Gift Ban Law, Manufacturers were generally only permitted to provide modest meals in a HCP's office or a hospital setting. Now, the Gift Ban Law allows Manufacturers to "provide or provide payment for" modest meals and refreshments both inside and outside of the HCP's office or a hospital setting.
Modest meals are defined somewhat broadly, and without any specific cost limitations, as: "food and/or drinks provided by or paid for by" a Manufacturer to a HCP that, "as judged by local standards, are similar to what a health care practitioner might purchase when dining at his or her own expense." 105 CMR 970.004.
Reporting Certain Modest Meals and Refreshments to DPH
Although the Gift Ban Law has softened the limitations on providing meals, non-CME related meals must be reported. The Proposed Regulations allow meals or refreshments, which are otherwise permitted under 105 CMR 970.006(3), to be provided in connection with "non-CME educational presentations" if they are reported to DPH on a quarterly basis. DPH proposes that these quarterly reports detail all non-CME educational presentations at which meals or refreshments were provided. The reports must include the following information:
Technical Training on the Use of a Medical Device
The amendments to the Gift Ban Law also removed a limitation whereby Manufacturers could pay an HCP for reasonable expenses necessary for technical training on the use of a medical device only where the parties had a written purchase contract. The Proposed Regulations implement this amendment by striking the limitation from 105 CMR 970.008(2)(b) ("[n]othing in 105 CMR 970.000 shall prohibit the following: . . . Payment or reimbursement for the reasonable expenses, including travel and lodging related expenses necessary for technical training of health care practitioners on the use of a medical device.").
Annual Reports to DPH/ Sunshine Act Reports
The Gift Ban Law requires Manufacturers to annually report any fee, payment, subsidy, or other economic benefit to a HCP with a value of at least $50 ("MA Disclosures"), but Manufacturers will be required to report similar information to the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services under the Sunshine Act (which expressly preempts any state or local laws requiring reporting of payments or other transfers of value reported under the Sunshine Act). The amendments to the Gift Ban Law prohibit DPH from requiring Manufacturers to disclose to DHP information reported under the federal Sunshine Act. Although data collection must begin on January 1, 2013, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services has not published final regulations implementing the Sunshine Act, so that start date is currently in question. After Manufacturers submit MA Disclosures covering calendar year 2012, the Proposed Regulations would no longer require Manufacturers to submit these disclosures to DPH. 105 CMR 970.009(1). DPH will also deem disclosures under the Sunshine Act to satisfy the reporting obligations under the Gift Ban Law. 105 CMR 970.009(6).
General Requirements
The Proposed Regulations would also require Manufacturers to report all incidents of non-compliance with 105 CMR 970.000 to the Department and to the Office of the Attorney General in a format specified by the Department. 105 CMR 970.005(5).
Hearing and Comment Period
DPH will conduct a hearing on the Proposed Regulations on October 19, 2012 at 10:00 a.m. Interested parties may also submit "testimony" electronically to firstname.lastname@example.com, or in writing to LouAnn Stanton, Office of the General Counsel, Department of Public Health, 250 Washington Street, Boston, MA 02108. All testimony must be submitted by 5:00 p.m. on October 26, 2012.

Intel App Helps Migrate Content From Smartphones to Chromebooks
With the Intel Easy Migration app, users can transfer data and files from Apple, Android and Windows devices to their Chromebooks.Intel over the past 18 months or so has made inroads into a Chromebook market that continues to grow as more content is put into the cloud. Now the giant chip maker wants to make it easier for customers to migrate data and files from their mobile devices or PCs onto their Intel-powered Chromebooks. Intel this week launched a software app called Intel Easy Migration that enables users to move their content—from photos and contacts to documents and video and audio files—from smartphones running Apple's iOS or Google's Android mobile operating systems or from their Windows-based PCs. Customers can use the app to transfer all the data and files at once by using the Quick Migration feature, or can select specific files to migrate by choosing the Custom Migration setting, according to Intel officials. Users also can pause the migration as they need. The app is available in the Google Play and Apple App Store online stores, or can be downloaded for Microsoft Windows systems. Through the software, users can migrate their local and Hotmail contacts to Google Contacts, and their photos and videos to Google+ Photos.
The app also will show users how much Google Drive space is being consumed through the migration.

BBC Weather is eternal. It's been there 27 minutes and 57 past the hour since 3645 BC, hasn't it?
1. Wrong! From 1936 until 1954 (the exception of the war), the weather on television just consisted of a posh man reading a map off-screen.
It was like, "I'm a very posh man and here is the weather" or something.
2. They then decided that a presenter needed to be on screen, so the weather presenter was born!
3. The weather symbols were introduced in 1967. Dots meant rain and triangles meant showers.
But it didn't look that sexy. It looked like the world's worst geography lesson.
4. But then it all changed. It started with the UK drawn on by felt tip and then stroked by a sexy pencil to emphasise cold fronts.
5. Symbols were then introduced. Weather presenters had to walk between the maps to show the upcoming forecast…
6. … and then they had to move the weather symbols according to the future forecasts.
7. There were problems though. Not all the magnetic symbols stuck on the screen :(
8. But you did have a lot of editorial freedom. In a Christmas spoof video sent around BBC staff in the 80s, they somehow managed to get Hitler to do it.
9. Then in 1987… THIS MOMENT.
"… but don't worry, there isn't."
10. Oh.
The storm had hurricane force, but Michael Fish claims that he had been misquoted in his prediction of the storm.
12. And he left a legacy. Who could have predicted in 1987 that a weather report would be used as a joke in the London 2012 Opening Ceremony?
13. In 2005 changes were afoot. The weather symbols on the television were declared dead.
14. And they tilted the map so much that you were no longer able to see most of Scotland.
15. They changed it again, but at least it still has that sexy zoom in bit. You can't help but look at it.
16. And don't forget their snowglobes change according to the weather and the time of year.
17. Still, the technology is not foolproof. Earlier this year the map showed temperatures of -88 degrees in Norwich, Glasgow and the Outer Hebridies.
18. And neither are the presenters foolproof. Remember the time that Alex Deakin said "cunt" on air for absolutely no reason whatsoever?
19. The presenters don't always know when the cameras have stopped looking.
20. And I'm pretty sure that Carol Kirkwood doesn't know where the studios are, considering that on BBC Breakfast she's always outdoors.
21. Then there's of course that one Tomasz Schafernaker, who accidentally swore at the camera when he didn't realise that his camera was on.
22. And then tried to cover it up by immediately scratching his chin.
23. But then again Tomaz can get away with absolutely anything these days. I mean, LOOK. AT. HIM.
"Humidity is rising. Barometer's getting low."
24. It could be worse. We could have this guy doing it 24/7.
26. And BBC Weather has relocated to this sort of fantasy island in Broadcasting House that the camera floats over to. It's like a beautiful dream.
27. Love you BBC Weather.
Just keep turning baby oh yeah.

TFN Review: Angry Birds
Star Wars
Character Encyclopedia
Reviewed by
March 8, 2014
Love them or loathe them, Angry Birds
Star Wars
is destined to be around for a while, and it hasn't taken very long for a wealth of characters to be developed, so much so that DK recently released the Angry Birds
Star Wars
Character Encyclopedia.
Sized to the same dimensions as DK's other
Star Wars
-related character encyclopedias, the book gives readers the opportunity to learn everything they could possibly want to know (and undoubtedly more besides) about the brave birds of the Rebellion and the wicked pigs of the Empire.
Opening with an introduction that provides an explanation for the galactic conflict between the likes of Darth Swindle and Lard Vader on the side of the Empire, and Red Skywalker and Chuck Solo, fighting for the Angry Bird Rebels, the book is split into two main sections, one for each faction.
The first half of the book is dedicated to Bird Rebels and Jedi, beginning with a Bird Rebel Line-up and then covering all of the main characters, like the aforementioned Skywalker and Solo, as well as Obi-Wan Kaboomi, Yoda Bird, Jar Jar Wings and Peckme Amidala to name but a few, along with a couple of key locations such as Dagobah, Tatooine and Hoth. Each profile is split across two pages, and provides a collection of amusing details and images, a fun fact and also for the characters, a data file that lists the home planet, special skill and bird buddy.
Littered amongst all of the character and location profiles are a variety of two-page spreads that look at answering questions like "What does it take to be a good droid bird?" ("Keep yourself in eggs-ellent shape!"), as well as providing features on "Epic Duels", "The Art of the Lightsaber" and "From eager Padawan to evil porker" among others.
The second half of the Angry Birds
Star Wars
Character Encyclopedia comes under the title "Welcome to the pork side", and along with members of the Empire, also features bounty hunters such as Jango & Boba Fatt, crime leader Jabba the Hog, and other ne'er-do-wells. The section is in much the same format as that of the first, albeit with a few more vehicles, such as Lard Vader's TIE Fighter, Pork Federation Ship and AT-AT, and the features provide answers to such burning questions as "What makes a good bird turn bad?" and "What does it take to be the leader of the Pig Empire?", as well as looking at "Evil pig alliances" and the likes and hates of both Redkin & Red Skywalker in "Like Father Like Son". The section also includes two quizzes, "Which Jedi Bird are you?" and "Which path will you take?", and is rounded out with an index to all of the profiles in each section, plus many more topics referenced throughout the book.
Clearly, a great deal of artistic licence has been taken as far as the names of characters are concerned, and while the vast majority are incredibly cheesy, there are a couple that aren't quite so cringe-inducing, Quail-Gon & Mynhogs being my personal favourites. If you're willing (and/or able) to see past the silliness of the whole Angry Birds
Star Wars
mash-up, then there's plenty of humour contained within the book, and who knows, you may even catch yourself chuckling at a couple of things; I know I did!
Whether or not you've had your fill of Angry Birds
Star Wars
, there's no denying the appeal that it has with kids, and this book is aimed squarely at the younger age group. So while the Angry Birds
Star Wars
Character Encyclopedia may not be for you, there's every likelihood that a kid you know will be all over it.
Angry Birds
Star Wars
Character Encyclopedia is out now and available at all good bookstores, priced $17.99 CDN and $16.99 USD.

One of the reasons that I like role-playing games - even when played on the computer - is that they feel creative. Even when the game has three dialogue options that all lead to the same response, it lets me choose and create my own story, guaranteed to be different from everyone else's stories.
And not only that; it happens on games like Clash of Clans, where epic stories of combat are told every day, even though the sandbox is small compared to story-oriented games. But it's still me and my story and what happened to my village.
Looking back on the TV series I have enjoyed the most, I can always relate them to a story: Babylon 5 we watched on smuggled tapes from the USA and accidentally started a huge SciFi-club on the side. Deep Space Nine we watched with the wife when she was pregnant with our first child. Old Finnish comedy was the talk of the school yard back when we only had two TV channels in the entire country. I don't remember much about the shows, but I do remember the emotions of sharing these stories with others, and the story of watching something is, to me, more important than the story itself. The metastory of entertainment, if you will.
It even touches my work - the best jobs I've ever had were those where we were creating something together. It does not matter so much what it was, but building it was an experience that created a powerful story.
So one thing I'm always trying to do when confronted with new technology or opportunity is - what is the story that this is trying to convey? Can we help you tell more stories? Considering the things being hyped right now - VR _definitely_ lets you tell stories and once tools mature, we'll see an explosion of stories in that area. The AIs will write their own stories, and they will eventually be more beautiful and incomprehensible than anything humans have ever written. Internet of Things... Not sure. I don't care what my fridge tells my watch. It's not an interesting story. It's not even a good joke: "Hey, did you hear what the chair said to the table? { "position": "below", "color": "beige", "speed": 0.002 }."
One of the things that drew me to NFC was its storytelling ability - tagging any object would let people read its story. Rearranging things might change its story. Much of the same idea was continued at Thinglink, which has grown nicely to be a comprehensive VR/360/video/image storytelling platform, used by millions of students, teachers, publishers and advertisers around the world. I'm still having trouble grasping what are the stories of the IoT-connected world, and why should I really care. (Caveat: I'm expecting great things out of Thington, if they don't lose their way :-). I'm also enjoying Pasi Hurri's stories about his IoT connected sauna - though it's definitely on the geekier side of things. And yes, I know, there's great promise in reducing cost in industrial applications yadda yadda.)
Of course, this could just be my inability to understand the greatness that is IoT and that it's supposed to be invisible and Things That Just Work In The Background And Make My Life Easier. But until then it's just an Expensive Thing That Gets Broken In Mysterious Ways.
About twelve years ago I was watching my later Nokia colleague Chris Heathcote talk at O'Reilly Emerging Technology conference on how in ten years, there will be "no concept of lost". This was a couple of years after US let civilians access very accurate GPS, but a couple of years before the GPS receivers became so cheap that they could be embedded in the phone.
Another thing that we didn't have back then were global 3G networks and the concept of network time. Phones ran on whatever time you gave them, and even though NTP and the lot were keeping accurate time on the internet, the telecom industry was a bit behind the times on that.
But now we have both - almost every smartphone has a GPS chip and very accurate time information. We're rooted very firmly in both time and place - sort of a reverse TARDIS, which is neither here or now. We're no longer "lost", unless it is our intent or we're very unlucky. Location-based gaming (Pokemon Go) is something that could not have existed before this, and there's now a lot of smart people figuring out the next possible avenues that is enabled by constraining us even tighter within a particular box of spacetime continuum. For example, Indoor Atlas locates us within 3 metres inside a building by mapping the magnetic fields. (Funnily enough, magnetic location mapping wasn't in Chris' original slides, which otherwise were pretty accurate.)
So yeah, it's now possible to know well where you are - but it's also easier than ever to know where everyone else is. There's a gazillion of applications dedicated to making people meet in places, from the fairly innocuous to very creepy. This is a funny reversal: one thing that cell phones did at the beginning of the century was to liberate us from place and time.
The liberation is now pretty much complete: we can choose to be in different places, but still participate in the same event at the same time through tools like Snapchat and WhatsApp and Periscope; or we can participate in the same location but at different times (Geocaching, Pokemon Go), or we can be completely free of time and place (Youtube, Slideshare), or we can meet in the same place at the same time (Meetup, Glympse).
So I have to ask - is this it? Are all the niches of existence now covered? Is there room for apps somewhere else in the spacetime? Is there something that's being ignored?
Am I being too human-centric here? What apps will the AIs write for themselves and for us? :-D
Today my 5-year old daughter asked me, after a visit to the nearby swimming hall, why the showers stop working while people are still in them and suggested that we should build showers that work only when someone is under them. It would save water too.
So I asked her, how she would build one. "We could put in pressure plates", she exclaimed! Walking home, we found other solutions too, including some scary ones (cameras in the shower).
And this is why I encourage her to play games (like Minecraft). Not because it improves problem-solving skills, but because complex games teach that the world is malleable. If you know the rules, you can play outside them. You don't have to just accepts things as they are: you can always go fix things. Games throw obstacles in your path, whereas the life of a sheltered western kid in a modern welfare society is pretty much a level grass field. Games reward creative solutions, and failing is cheap - you can go try things as many times as you like. Play is practice.
The difficulty, as always, is at the border of virtual and real: When to move the theory into practice? When to stop brainstorming and start working? When do you play, and when do you go all serious? How do you transform the lessons from play into the real world, and how do you turn your real-life experiences into play? We need to cross the grey area between these two all the time: The playtime to dip into our creativity, and the serious time to ship stuff. I believe that a lot of conflict in project work comes from a common lack of understanding where this border lies, and it seems to be a common source of conflict between parents and children as well.
But while I'm trying to grasp this stuff, I'm going to join my kids in their Minecraft world. If they don't kill me outright, I might learn something new.
Watching my kids eat - or to be precise, poke at the food very suspiciously and declaring that it is a) awful, b) horrible and c) that they never want this and why we can't eat normal food - it strikes me interesting how the older we get, the more varied our taste becomes. I just accidentally spread some adult toothpaste on my kids toothbrushes, and even when I rinsed them thoroughly, they still complained that washing teeth burns and hurts.
So perhaps it was evolutionary beneficial that kids are extremely picky and eat only "safe" foods, whereas older people who have already had their kids can go around, eat whatever and don't taste anything. Because a dead kid isn't good for tribe survival, but an old person who eats random stuff is a nice signal to the rest of the tribe what can be eaten and what not.
Of course, some googling reveals - now that I actually had the time to do so - that there's some science around this topic.
So yay, science of the everyday life! Now eat the f*ing fish.
Quite a few people use Vagrant as their development environment. It provides a nice way to basically package all your dependencies in a neat fashion so that you don't have to worry too much about installing binaries and versions - no longer do you need to worry about virtualenvs or rvms or how to install a particular database when some of the devs have OSX, others use Linux and some enjoy some brand of Windows. Just say "git clone", "vagrant up" and go. Your editor lives on your regular desktop, and everything else happens inside the Vagrant box.
It's all good, except for the minor problem known as "filesystem notification events don't propagate into the Vagrant box" also known as "inotify doesn't work on Linux guest". That means that when you change a file on your host machine, the automatics on the box side don't notice it and don't start a recompile - known as a hot reload - forcing you to recompile manually. There are a couple of ways around this, mostly either by polling actively (which is quite CPU-intensive), or in case of scripting languages like Python, automatically checking the modification dates on each reload. You can also twiddle with vagrant triggers.
However, go (or golang for SEO purposes) is a compiled language, so while there are many hot reload packages, they never see any changes and hence are useless. So imagine my joy when I stumbled upon the vagrant-notify-forwarder Vagrant plugin, which almost automates everything. It installs a daemon on the host side and forwards the filesystem events to the box. You can easily install it with
$ vagrant plugin install vagrant-notify-forwarder $ vagrant reload
However, it only sends ATTRIB changes to the box. And most golang hot reloaders only listen to changes to the actual file content. But the very responsive Ivan Pusic added a nice patch to his excellent rerun utility and suddenly the world works again. Just add the "--attrib" -flag to rerun, doing something like this:
$ vagrant ssh % go get github.com/ivpusic/rerun % cd $GOPATH/src/myproject % rerun --attrib -s *.go
Private comments? Drop me an email. Or complain in a nearby pub - that'll help.

Out to make a catch:
If angling has your interest the Little Belt are the right place. Some of the best places to catch fish in Denmark can be found here when it comes to cod, flatfish and herring.
There are angling trips on board fishing boats on the Little Belt throughout the year and with a little luck it is possible to catch one og the impressive cod or big flatfish that are far from unusual in these waters.
The harbour at Fredericia is also a popular haunt of anglers - who are always welcome provided they respect the fact that the harbour is also a busy workplace. Cod can be caught here all year round, as well as flatfish and hering, and during the summer there are also garfisch, mackerel and eel.
If nature and angling are your preference there are many excellent places to fish along the coast, where there is also a good chance of catching the sea trout. Rainbow trout are perhaps less difficult and, together with eel and carp, can be caught at the Trelde trout lake.

A booster chair can last until the child is 8 or about 4 feet and 9 inches tall before they use a safety strap. So your investment will be for 4 years. The cost can be anywhere from 50 to 200 dollars. we have seen leather ones that can cost as much as 290. How much should you pay?

Early on in the powerful book, American Dream Machine, the twenty-something narrator Nate Rosenwald makes his intentions clear. "This story I have to tell doesn't have much to do with me," he says, "but it isn't about some bored actress and her existential crises, a troubled screenwriter who comes to his senses and hightails it back to Illinois. It's not about the vacuous horror of the California dream. It's something that could've happened anywhere else in the world, but instead settled, inexplicably, here."
This "something," is the fictional story of the rise and eventual irrelevance (if not necessarily fall) of Nate's dad, Beau Rosenwald. Epic in its scope, American Dream Machine narrates the story of how this talent agent made his way to the near top of the food chain with practically no professional skills but plenty of street smarts. The novel is epic in scope as it charts Beau'...

RealPlayer Music Syncing
Anyone know of a program to sync the Droid using RealPlayer? Windows Media will recognize it as an external drive once it is ported. RealPlayer does not. Also, most of the programs seem to only draw play lists from I-Tunes or Windows Media Player. Any that work with RealPlayer?

No, as far as Realplayer is concerned it won't recognize the Droid. The Droid likely just shows up as external storage and the software isn't told to look for the Droid's ID on the bus.

Interesting. It recognizes my microsd card in a card reader, but not the Droid as an expansion drive. Other programs recognize it after it is tethered with the usb cable.
- 04-09-2010, 06:28 PM Thread Author #4
All, I'm still looking for a solution here. I've tried multiple music programs and none will dynamically recognize new media when added to my computer. It is too much work! RealPlayer offers hope, but it won't recognize my Moto Droid. Would that Real.com would recognize it. Too bad!

Slow-growing, densely branched shrub that can grow into an irregular, multi-trunked tree. In its natural habitat, it grows to a height of up to 15 - 20 m, but when cultivated it does not attain heights of more than 5 m. The trunk is reddish brown and flaky. The branches spread as they grow and are somewhat vertical, dense with short lateral branches. The very dark green needles are linear and taper to a point. They are lighter green underneath and the short stem is yellowish. After unremarkable flowers, seeds appear that are covered 4/5 by a fleshy, red case of approx. 0.5 cm. This species is cultivated often in the US and Canada because it is more winter-hardy than T. baccata. In Europe, T. cuspidata is used generally for pruning (bonsai) shapes, owing to its multi-trunked growth.

In this program project, we propose a Personalized Medicine approach to the study of advanced lung disease. We hypothesize that sub-phenotypes of common diseases, including pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), have a profound influence on outcome and responsiveness to therapy. The overarching translatlonal goal of this program is to define common mechanistic and therapeutic pathways for PAH in the context of major lung and systemic diseases, such as COPD and HIV. Our proposed three major projects and two cores are designed to integrate and synergize fundamental translatlonal research addressing major current and high impact problems in the PAH and advanced lung disease field. Because translational medicine requires a bench-to-bedside-to-bench integrated approach, we developed a full translatlonal continuum from preclinical models in three species, including a novel primate PAH model, screening and clinical drug development programs, human hemodynamic phenomic assessments, genetics, and clinical epidemiological trials focused initially on two major disease targets, COPD and HIV, which represent two prototypic models of the pulmonary hypertension sub-phenotype. Our three proposed projects and cores all individually and collaboratively align across this translational spectrum, driving an effort to understand fundamental mechanisms of disease, identify small molecule therapeutic agents, develop screening biomarkers for vascular sub-phenotypes of lung disease, and to set the stage for phase II and III clinical trials. Successes in the first five years of this project are expected to develop into phase ll-lll clinical trials and extension to other advanced lung diseases, such as interstitial lung disease and obstructive sleep apnea, in years 6 to 10. Project 1: Pulmonary hypertension in COPD: Genetic and Environmental Determinants Project 2: ROS signaling and NOS uncoupling in pulmonary vascular disease Project 3: Pulmonary vascular-targeted NO therapeutic strategies Core A: Administrative core Core B: Pre-Clinical Models of PAH Core C: Translational Vascular Phenomics, Genomics and Epidemiology Core
Pulmonary vascular disease is a relatively understudied, but Important sub-phenotype in COPD, HIV, IPF, and OSA that is associated with excessive morbidity and mortality, and presents unique therapeutic opportunities.

I've been sick all day. I've not thrown up but the side effects of the meds I've been taking for that dog bite are killing me. Stomach cramps, nausea...and I nearly vomited. blegh!! Not fun at all. Anyway, since I can type again now I would just like to let you know all know about the attack. Saturday morning I went to work as usual. Nothing too bad about the day. It was a morning shift so I was relatively happy because the morning shift is the easiest shift of the three shifts available. So I was first to clock in and decided that I had better get the walks started lest we wouldn't get done before time to load Doggie Day Camp (the supervised group play time for dogs). So the first dog I go to, an akita mix named Hershey whom has caused a little bit of trouble as far as growling and such is concerned. So I grabbed his leash and started to put it on him since he does not appreciate the lead being put on him. (he becomes aggressive). Well I tried to put the collar on and it was too small. So I pulled back and tried to hook it on again and next thing I know, I'm on the ground with this dog trying to bite me in the face. I immediately shoved my hands up and gaurded my face and screamed to high heaven hoping someone would hear. My supervisor stepped in immediately and gave the dog enough window for me to scramble to the kitchen and try to see what had happened as far as battle wounds are concerned.

Angels' Hawkins: 9 teams, few complaints
ANAHEIM – He is the second-oldest Angel and the longest-tenured one, LaTroy Hawkins pitching in his 18th major league season.
He signed his first professional contract in June 1991. Two months later, Mike Trout was born.
"I saw that note somewhere and thought, (Oh my!)" Hawkins says. "I made sure to mention that to him."
The first home run he allowed was to Harold Baines, who today is 53. Hawkins pitched a complete-game victory over the White Sox in 1995, beating a lineup that featured Robin Ventura and Ozzie Guillen, who are still in the big leagues, as managers.
Hawkins, 39, has been a starter, long reliever, short reliever, set-up man and closer. And that all came during his first nine seasons, each spent with Minnesota, where he once was an institution, sort of like Bob Dylan.
During his next nine seasons, though, Hawkins would become one of the rolling stones, traveling from town to town, playing for eight different teams.
At least.
Baseball promises nothing, particularly the same address from one month to the next. The Angels signed Hawkins for one season, but that doesn't guarantee they'll keep him the whole time. While there's no reason right now to think otherwise, Hawkins knows the 10th team of his career is probably just sitting out there, waiting.
Eighteen major league seasons. That's only two fewer than the Florida Marlins and Colorado Rockies.
"It doesn't seem like a long time to me," Hawkins says. "I feel like I'm on the 'Soul Train' line, just dancing. The years are flying by, and I'm enjoying them."
The "Soul Train" line? Told there are people who will read that reference and have no idea what or who "Soul Train" was, Hawkins smiles.
"Let them do some homework," he says. "They've got the Internet out there."
When Hawkins began his pro career, almost no one out there had the Internet. Just two months after Hawkins threw the first pitch for which he was paid, a computer scientist from London introduced something he called the World Wide Web project.
Most players who are drafted won't have major league careers that last as long as nine years. Hawkins, almost incredibly, is working on his second nine-year career.
Fittingly, he sounds like someone filled with the gratitude of two men.
"I mean, think about it," he says. "How many guys get to play a kids' game and have it as their job? For 21 years? I'll complain about a lot of things, but you'll never hear me complain about baseball. Ever."
Who needs stability when you have durability? Hawkins has appeared in 838 games and this season should work his 1,300th inning. He knows every major league city like an umpire and has visited as many stadiums as the Goodyear blimp.
Stability? The longest contract he has ever signed was with the Cubs, before the 2004 season. Two years, plus a player option. Two months into that second year, Chicago traded him away.
"I have no reason to be bitter toward baseball," Hawkins says. "No reason at all. My grandfather always said, 'It's only a problem when nobody wants you.'"
In that deal, the Cubs moved Hawkins to the Giants for another right-handed pitcher — Jerome Williams, now a teammate with the Angels.
Hawkins signed here Dec. 7, saying he wanted to pitch for a contender. Within hours of his deal, the Angels added two other free agents. Albert Pujols and C.J. Wilson received a welcoming pep rally in front of Angel Stadium. Hawkins showed up at spring training.
"I was thinking, 'Great job, (Jerry) Dipoto,'" Hawkins says of the offseason work done by the Angels' general manager.
Great job in signing Pujols, Wilson or you?
"All three."
Of the nine possibilities, the only jersey Hawkins has on display in his house is one he wore with the Twins. He still has a fan club in Minnesota. If he had to choose, he says he'd "have to be a forever Twin."
But for now, Hawkins is an Angel, an important link in a bullpen that has evolved into a strength. His experience only figures to become more significant in a second-half push for the American League West or a wild-card berth.
The second-oldest Angel and longest-tenured one will be counted on to pace the young guys like Trout, who, to top Hawkins' longevity, would have to play at least until, oh roughly, the 2030 season.
"It shows how good he is and how consistent I've been," Hawkins says of his age disparity with Trout. "I mean, I've got a son (Dakari) his age. It's just a testament to his God-given talent and a testament to what God gave me, the ability to be consistent."
Hawkins has been consistent, pitch after pitch, year after year, team after team, consistent in everything but where he calls home.

City Residents Urged To Be More Careful About Recycling By Paul Tuthill • Jul 8, 2014 WAMC The city of Springfield, which pioneered single-stream recycling in Massachusetts, has launched an education and enforcement campaign in an effort to keep recycling rates up and trash disposal costs down. The Springfield Department of Public Works said an unacceptable amount of trash and other prohibited items have been turning up lately in the recycling containers people put out for curbside pick-up. Some contamination of the recyclables is allowed, but if it exceeds ten percent the city faces fines, according to Springfield's recycling coordinator Greg Superneau. MassDEP Releases Updated Waste Management Master Plan By Lucas Willard • May 8, 2013 Wikimedia Commons/Public Domain The Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection has released its updated Solid Waste Master Plan, which aims to increase recycling and reduce the amount of trash sent to landfills. But some aspects of the plan remain controversial among environmentalists. The new master plan released this week has a goal of reducing waste in Massachusetts 30 percent by 2020 and 80 percent by 2050. The plan will focus on controlling food waste, increasing recycling, and looking to new technologies to eliminate waste and reducing the toll on the state's landfills.

World Bank's Kim Sees More Global Impact From Fed TaperingSandrine Rastello
World Bank President Jim Yong Kim predicted another wave of higher global interest rates that could hurt emerging markets when the U.S. Federal Reserve starts tapering its $85 billion-a-month asset-purchase program.
Bond prices slumped internationally and emerging-market stocks plunged after May 22, when Fed Chairman Ben S. Bernanke said for the first time the central bank could withdraw stimulus, also called quantitative easing. While those market movements were partly reversed after the Fed maintained its policy, the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank have urged nations from Turkey to Indonesia to strengthen their economies in preparation for the reduction.
"We think we've seen about a third of the overall increase in interest rates responding to that first announcement," Kim told reporters in Washington today. "What that means is when QE tapering actually happens, interest rates will continue to go up," which "could cause problems for the emerging-market economies."
Among other consequences, higher borrowing costs will complicate developing economies' access to funding for large-scale investments such as power plants and highways, according to Kim, who is trying to create a Global Infrastructure Facility to help direct private-sector money into such projects.
Infrastructure Fund
Investors "need us to be able to go in and, based on our 60-plus years of experience doing projects in these countries, knowing the governments and also knowing the private sector, to come in and be able to say 'here is a project, here are the risks, here's how we're going to mitigate those risks,'" Kim said, adding that the bank would also contribute its own money.
Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa see an infrastructure deficit of about $4.5 trillion over the next five years that public aid alone is unable to fill, he said. Managers at sovereign wealth funds and at pension funds have expressed interest in the facility, where the rules of governance remain to be decided and are "tricky," he said.
Among encouraging signs to the global economy is the U.S., which the bank sees growing about 2.8 percent next year. Expansion in China seems to have rebounded in the third quarter, said Kim, who welcomed news of an elevated role of markets in the nation's economic strategy at a gathering of Communist Party leaders this week in Beijing.
'Extremely Positive'
"The language coming out of the party congress is extremely positive," Kim said.
Kim also said he's offered the Washington-based lender's assistance to the Philippines, where rescuers are battling to deliver emergency aid to areas ravaged by Super Typhoon Haiyan, which may have killed more than 10,000 people.
The bank can assist in any way the government deems appropriate, from speeding up cash-transfer programs to helping remove debris, he said.
The typhoon is another example of serious storms that have become more frequent and call for measures countries can take to slow or mitigate the effects of climate change, such as the removal of fossil-fuel subsidies or investment in renewable energies, Kim said.
