Mike, Yes, winning hearts and minds is tough. It's a bit like teaching stick shift to a person who's always had an automatic. I also have implemented the strategy of F/OSS at my university. At current count, I have no less than 11 F/OSS apps (Firefox, Seamonkey, WinSCP, FileZilla, Paint.NET, JCreator, 7Zip, Tera Term, DoPDF, Audacity, ODF Add-in for Office) in our computer labs. They get used which I am happy about and some of those are in PC-BSD too which is neat. The more I impart upon the students that these are *normal* apps, the more they *become* normal apps. Our professors like 'em too which helps to increase their adoption as well. If people see these apps on other OS, perhaps a light bulb will go off. It's sometimes better to win the battle than the war. Arthur -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

In Celebration of Computer Programmers
Posted on Dec 12, 2013 by Linoma Software | | Categories: General
In celebration of Computer Science Education Week, we tip our hat to our programmers whose expertise and creativity keep our products evolving and responsive to our customers' needs. We also salute all programmers that constantly strive to keep their organizations running smoothly by developing new applications or finding innovative ways to adapt current software to meet their needs.
The importance of programming skills is in the spotlight this week with the Hour of Code initiative where educators, celebrities, tech gurus and business owners alike join forces to promote computer science education. The campaign's promotional video has received almost 1.7 million views.
Code.org reports that computer programming jobs are growing at twice the national average and that there will be more 1,000,000 more jobs than students in 2020. In a rocky job market, computer science offers a great opportunity for students who have the passion to pursue it as a career.
Our programmers work hard and they love the challenge of finding new ways to improve our products. Through initiatives such as the Hour of Code promotion and Computer Science Education Week, we hope that more students are encouraged to explore the world of computer programming.
You can learn more about Hour of Code and how you can help. You can also find tutorials and resources that take students of all ages beyond basic programming to explore different computer languages and app development. We hope you'll sit down with the kids in your life and explore Code.org.

Date: November 21 2012
The Australian bond market has closed weaker despite gaining ground through the day in response to some disappointing news from Europe.
At 1630 AEDT on Wednesday, the December 10-year bond futures contract was at 96.88 (implying a yield of 3.12 per cent), down from 96.92 (3.08 per cent) at Tuesday's local close.
The December three-year bond futures contract was trading at 97.38 (2.62 per cent), down from 97.4 (2.6 per cent).
Australian bonds opened the local session weaker, tracking the moves on US Treasuries during the overnight session.
However, the market pared back some of the losses experienced during offshore trading after a meeting of European finance ministers could not agree on a debt reduction package for the troubled Greek economy.
Nomura head of fixed income Jon Linton said the Australian bond market took direction from offshore.
"The local events haven't had any impact," Mr Linton said.
"It is entirely following the news about the Greek bailout and Euro group of ministers failing to agree on a decision for Greece."
"That has put a floor on the prices of government bonds in Australia."
The European finance ministers emerged from 11 hours of talks in Brussels with no agreement, and only plans to meet again on November 26.
Direction during Wednesday night's (AEDT) offshore session is expected to come from ongoing negotiations between the White House and US Congress over tax measures and government spending cuts due to automatically come into effect from January 2013.
Should they come into effect, the tax hikes and spending cuts are expected to push the US back into recession with a significant knock-on effect on the global economy.
Mr Linton said the next significant Australian economic data for bond traders would be capital expenditure figures on November 29.
"Until then, we will be driven primarily by events in the US and events in Europe," Mr Linton said.

Knowing who your targeting is half the battle when it comes to marketing. In 2010, a Sisters in Crime survey found that when it comes to mystery and thriller readers, 68% are women, 35% live in the south, 48% are suburban dwellers, and 26% are 65 or older. While this doesn't mean you should target all of your efforts to 70-year-old women living in the outskirts of Atlanta, there is a point: know where to find your audience. This also means deciding whether your book falls under any of the sub-genre categories, which include: general mysteries, thrillers, police procedurals, and the like. Once you have a sense of who your reader is you should be able to identify the bloggers and publications you'll want to reach out to.
That said, there are a number of general tips for marketing mysteries. Here are just a few:
Attend a Conference: More so than any other genre, mystery readers and writers have the chance to meet others at various meet-ups. From the large, annual Mystery Writers Conference to the smaller "Love is Murder" convention, find out what's going on close to you and consider attending, exhibiting, or even applying for a panel. To cut costs, consider getting a group of local writers together to jointly sponsor a table. While there, don't shy away from others; make connections and friendships that will improve your writing and your ability to promote.
Increase your social media presence: Whether it's Twitter, Pinterest, blogging, or all of the above, it's important you have a presence online. Readers want to connect with writers and all of these mediums are an easy (once you get the hang of 'em) way to do so.

'Jochen Hecht and Patrick Kaleta both scored in very similar ways to start off the game for Buffalo. Both took their eventual goal shots from the icing line in Florida territory. Hecht shot a seeing-eye puck that found it's way through Tomas Vokoun's padding and in to the back of the net. Meanwhile Kaleta banked it off a traveling Vokoun and past the goal line.'

December 3 – 13, 2013, a delegation of 30 top Chinese educators from South China Normal University, Guangzhou, Guangdong Province, PR China will come to the U.S. to participate in an Educational Leadership Learning Exchange (ELLE) at UW Bothell. The Chinese educators are involved in a three-year practice-based program of study at SCNU that includes this opportunity to learn first-had about school practice and educational administration in the U.S. The UW Bothell Education Program is coordinating the academic activities of the delegation as well as arranging visits with many of their educational partners at local schools, school districts, and community organizations.
Some of the educational sites the ELLE participants will be visiting include the Tacoma and Northshore School District offices, schools in the Everett, Northshore, and Seattle School Districts, the Technology Access Foundation (TAF) in Seattle as well as the TAF Academy in the Federal Way School District. On the UW Bothell campus, ELLE participants will engage with Education faculty members and University administrators in seminars on the U.S. Education System, Teacher Development and Leadership, and Post-Secondary transitions to higher education. They will also meet with Dana Brolley, International Admissions Advisor/Recruiter for UW Bothell and have an opportunity to talk with members of the Chinese Student Association (CSA) at UW Bothell about the differences between U.S. and Chinese education.
For one full day of their visit, the Chinese educators will join working teachers who are also UW Bothell students in a seminar that is a part of the UW Bothell Leadership Development for Educators (LEDE)program. These two groups will learn together, under the guidance of University faculty and practicing school principals. They will examine case studies, discuss differences in approaches to US and China educational challenges, and expand their understanding of teaching practice and leadership.
The Education Program is excited to have this wonderful opportunity to meet highly experienced educators from another culture and look forward to future exchange opportunities with SCNU.
Along with the Education Program faculty and staff, this program is being coordinated by Hong Qi Wagner, President of Pacific International Education and representative in the U.S. of Chongquing Municipal Government of China, Municipal Education Commission; Bridgette Christianson, Managing Partner, Alta Leadership; Dr. Hong Wang, Executive Associate Dean, School of Professional Development and Research on Primary and Secondary Education, SCNU; and her colleague, Dawei Yang, Vice Director, International Department, School of Professional Development and Research on Primary and Secondary Education.

Phoenix officially announces collaboration with R. Kelly
Listen to Pheonix on iHeartRadio | Listen to R. Kelly on iHeartRadio
Phoenix wasn't teasing fans when they hinted at a possible collaboration with R. Kelly.
In an Instagram post, the group revealed that they are teaming up with the singer for a remix of their song "Trying to Be Cool."
The remix comes after Kelly took that stage alongside the group at this year's Coachella.
Phoenix guitarist Chris Mazzalai recently explained how the group came up with the idea to appear on stage with Kelly. Apparently, the idea came to them one week before the music festival. Because they always play Kelly's music before going on stage, the group decided to create a live mash-up with music by Kelly and the group.
"Trying To Be Cool" appears on Phoenix's latest album Bankrupt!, which hit stores earlier this year.

Will be a hell of a fight if it happens.
Will be a hell of a fight if it happens.
3-2-0 Pro Fighter managed by TFL Sports Agency
Big fan of Siyar. I like Hardy too, but I will be picking Siyar come fight now.
Sherdog.com - The number one MMA site on the web today!
Pretty sure that Hardy said on twitter that he wont be ready in February and wished Siyar luck in London
Hardy if it happens.
From Hardy:
Although similar things have been said in the past and fights have still happened, but other than Siyar calling for it on Twitter I don't think the wheels are in motion.@SiyarTheGreat @ufc sorry mate, I won't be ready to fight in February. Enjoy fighting in London though, the UK fans are always great.
That's lucky for Hardy, as Bahadurzada would have smashed him to pieces.
Not too sure, I could see Dan take that by GnP.
"I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me." - Hunter S. Thompson
No way dan fights him, never in a million years...
Siyar would run through Hardy in my opinion
Good decision by Hardy to not be ready :P
You really think Hardy would get smashed that easily?

The City of New Haven has launched a new website to showcase the transformative project known as "Downtown Crossing".
Visit Downdown Crossing Website to learn more about this exciting project.
In short, the project will transform Route 34 East in New Haven from highway stubs and ramps to street-scale urban boulevards. The new boulevards will connect the downtown business and government centers to the active Medical District, which was separated from the heart of downtown when the highway was created.
The project will reclaim 10 acres of land, which will be made for developments into retail, residential, and medical facilities. These developments will enable the Downtown Crossing Project to achieve its goal of making a livable, walkable community while providing local and regional connectivity.

Live-Video Social Network Yevvo Caters to Selfie Stars
There are lots of teenagers on Yevvo, an iPhone app. Their video broadcasts, which followers can tune into live, do not always make for enthralling viewing.
"We are currently not doing anything…I'm bored," one young user told her followers during a broadcast from what she said was her choir practice on Wednesday.
She wanted followers to ask her questions. None did, and she turned off the broadcast in a few seconds.
But founders of the Israeli startup behind the app, Yevvo Entertainment Inc., think the Yevvo network might be tapping into what some people crave online — a raw, unedited and immediate connection, and a way of bringing a wide virtual community into one's mundane, as well as special moments.
Whatever users of Yevvo broadcast, they want an audience and want their friends and others to download the app. For now, viewers can only watch the video when it's live; there are no archives.
"Not many applications are truly viral, in the sense that people have a vested interest in having others join. You almost never see this phenomenon," said Eden Shochat, partner at Aleph. Mr. Shochat first invested in Yevvo personally in a seed round, and now he has led the Series A for Aleph, a $154 million venture fund launched last year by Mr. Shochat together with Michael Eisenberg, general partner at Benchmark Capital.
The investment in Yevvo came together soon after some 3,000 students from four high schools in the Detroit area downloaded the Yevvo iPhone application in October, according to the startup's chief executive and co-founder, Ben Rubin.
Mr. Rubin said that the downloads spread organically and that he didn't know about them until a venture investor in Silicon Valley told him and offered the company a term sheet. Mr. Rubin declined to name the investor. He then alerted his angel investors, including Mr. Shochat. Aleph quickly followed with its own term sheet.
Mr. Shochat said that he learned of the influx of Twitter chat about Yevvo on Sunday, Oct. 27, and that Yevvo signed Aleph's term sheet five days later.
It's unclear how many users are on Yevvo at the moment. Mr. Rubin declined to provide numbers. There were roughly 9,000 tweets mentioning the word "Yevvo" or tweeted at the @yevvo handle over the past 30 days, including a spike in activity after the company announced its Series A round on Wednesday, according to data from Topsy Labs Inc. The Yevvo app has a rating of four stars in the iTunes store.
It's clearly not as popular as some other streaming video apps like Ustream, which was downloaded some 4.4 million times in 2013, per the company. But Mr. Rubin doesn't compare Yevvo to those services. Instead, he says, Yevvo is a community, like Instagram, while Ustream is more a tool, like Google's Picasa is for pictures.
Mr. Rubin plans to never charge Yevvo users and to keep the app advertising-free. The way he envisions making money on the product is by inviting brands to develop their own Yevvo broadcasts. Mr. Rubin imagines an energy-drink brand, for example, getting athletes to broadcast their feats on its Yevvo channel, he said.
This sort of content marketing is a growing tool for brands, who have been spending money on creating branded content for Instagram, Pinterest and other social networks.
Users spend an average of about 47 minutes per week on Yevvo, according to the company. And many are that young demographic so sought after by brands.
Mr. Rubin, who dropped out of architecture studies at Technion-Israel Institute of Technology to launch the startup, says that he personally isn't interested in making money. He says he isn't an entrepreneur but "an artist," and he sees a world where technology brings people into each other's lives.
Teenagers today are used to getting approval and feedback about their actions from a wider community than just their parents or classmates, he says. And Yevvo, he says, provides that validation.
Mr. Rubin wants to see more of the truly interesting Yevvo broadcasts, such as where a DJ practices a set or fashion personalities broadcast from beside the catwalk, taking viewers behind the scenes, where they wouldn't get access.
He also sees Yevvo as a tool for inspiration. Someone, he said, may be sitting in a cubicle doing a boring job, and see on Yevvo at that very same moment that people are living more exciting and rewarding lives.The goal would be to "make every notification [that a follower gets] exciting," Mr. Rubin said.
For now it seems even the trivial can get many Yevvo followers excited. On Thursday, some 177 people tuned into a broadcast from a Yevvo user who was hanging out with other teen girls in a room and taking requests from the followers to twerk or sing. Mostly the girls were not doing much at all. The followers stayed for the long duration of the broadcast.

The Man's 2013 New Year's Playlist
Start here: "Time To Run," from Land of Dreams
Because of all the bands we saw utilize the dramatic Bon Iver slow-build technique — by which songs start slow and almost imperceptibly cascade into something bigger and louder — Lord Huron did it the most effortlessly. Ben Schneider, the one-man mastermind behind Lord Huron, has crafted the haziest, most vivid, and, ultimately, most unapologetically melodic debut of the year. Plus, it's maybe the most sonically wintry album of the year, meaning there's still a chance they get their due in the months ahead. And, finally, because if you'd prefer there was a little more My Morning Jacket in your Lumineers, this one's for you.
Start here: "Tickin' Bomb," from O' Be Joyful
Because they sound like what might have happened if Nick Cave and Guy Clark spent a long weekend writing gritty country blooze for She & Him.

5 Gold Mining Stocks With Major Upside - views
NEW YORK (Stockpickr) -- Thanks to a strong upward move in recent months, gold prices are back up around $1,700 an ounce, not far from the $1,900 peak seen in the summer of 2011. For anyone who has owned gold since it traded for just $1,100 an ounce at the start of 2011, these have been happy times indeed.
>>5 Dividend Winners Better Than Treasuries
Though production costs had been rising in recent quarters, they now appear to be leveling off. And at current levels, their expenses still ensure ample profits, assuming gold prices hang in there around $1,700.
Here are five gold mining stocks that look like solid bargains, with considerable upside even if gold prices themselves fail to rally further.
Barrick Gold
Any gold mining portfolio needs exposure to Barrick Gold (ABX), which is the world's largest gold producer, with 26 mines spread across the globe. Despite its massive heft, investors soured on the company's lack of discipline when it came time to measure investments in each mine for its potential return.
In June of this year, management decided to bring in a new CEO, Jamie Sokalsky, and he's begun delivering a better message to investors: Barrick will focus on lowering expenses, reducing debt and returning to its role as one of the industry's most profitable producers. At a recent mining conference, Sokalsky told investors to expect Barrick's mining costs to drop from a current $575 per ounce to the $500-to-$525 range over the next few years.
>>5 Stocks Poised for Breakouts
Those expense reductions are largely stemming from a pair of new lower-cost mines in the Dominican republic and along the Argentinean/Chilean border. Assuming gold prices remain at current levels, Barrick stands to earn more than $1,000 per ounce of mined gold -- before overhead expenses are accounted for. The drop in production costs should set the stage for operating cash flow to rise from around $4.4 billion this year, to around $6.9 billion in 2014, according to analysts at Citigroup, who see shares rising from a current $39 up to $50.
While Barrick's Sokalsky focuses on cash flow through lower costs, Goldcorp (GG) interns to boost cash flow by sharply boosting production. The company hopes to boost its gold production 70% over the next four years, to around 4 million ounces annually. Goldcorp's costs are bit higher than Barrick's -- around $625 per ounce -- but surging volume should still equate to a steadily rising bottom line.
Goldcorp is also one of the financially stronger players in the industry, with $1.2 billion in cash at its disposal. That should be enough to complete its existing capital spending programs and make a series of acquisitions of smaller gold miners.
Royal Gold
Colorado-based Royal Gold (RGLD) began raising funds in 1990 to invest in other firms' gold mines, and the strategy has paid off handsomely. The company's stream of royalties have steadily risen over the years, thanks in part to rising gold prices.
So what does the company do with all those royalties? Roughly 30% is paid out as dividends, and the rest goes right back into the next crop of mines. Royal Gold has an interest in more than 20 mines still in development, and another 100 that may get developed in the next few years.
In mid-October, Royal Gold reloaded its balance sheet by raising another $472 million in cash, boosting the company's current firepower above $800 million. Based on current plans, analysts think Royal Gold's free cash flow will surge from $162 million in fiscal (June) 2012 to around $400 million by fiscal 2015.
AuRico Gold
Thanks to labor problems at a key mine in Mexico, mid-sized gold producer AuRico Gold (AUQ) saw its shares take a deep hit in early September as management conceded that production would need to stop until the labor issues were resolved. Rather than deal with protracted labor problems, management decided to sell the mine, known as Ocampo, and re-invest the proceeds of the sale in to more productive mines.
That is expected to help fuel a production surge. AuRico expects to produce 268,000 ounces of gold this year, 296,000 ounces in 2013 and 367,000 ounces by 2014. Before that can happen, though AuRico will be spending heavily to set the stage for higher production.
>>3 Hot Stocks to Trade (or Not)
Capital spending is likely to exceed $400 million this year, leading to a free cash flow drain of around $250 million. Yet by 2014, with the investments largely complete, capital spending should drop to around 4125 million, setting the stage for a robust $300 million in free cash flow. The company expects that level of free cash flow to be maintained in subsequent years (assuming gold prices stay constant), which equates to an effective long-term free cash flow yield of nearly 10%.
A quick word about senior and junior gold miners. Firms such as Barrick Gold and Goldcorp are considered to be senior miners. These firms have considerable production output and their stocks are value in the context of cash flow generation. The junior miners, in contrast, are early-stage mine owners that have acquired potentially valuable mines but have yet to fully ramp up production. As a result, these firms are measured in the context of their assets, and not their cash flows.
Why take a chance on junior gold miners if they are absorbing ongoing losses? Because investors tend to discount their value while mine development gets underway, and if the mines turn out to have a mother lode of gold, then the company's stock can soar far higher.
Market Vectors Junior Gold Miners ETF
Most junior mining stocks are too small for many investors to consider. Instead, it's wiser to focus on owning a basket of them with the Market Vectors Junior Gold Miners ETF (GDXJ) , which is now a deep bargain after sliding from $40 in the spring of 2011 to round $23.
The fund typically owns gold miners with market values below $1.5 billion and production levels of less than 300,000 ounces per year. These smaller miners have typically become acquisition fodder whenever the big miners need to step up their growth plans.

As your child participates in hearing testing, you will hear hearing loss described in different ways. Please see below for more information on how hearing loss is described.
How do we hear?
Sound travels in waves. These waves are collected by the outer ear and sent through the external auditory canal (also called the ear canal) to the eardrum.
When sound waves hit the eardrum, the waves create vibrations that cause three ossicles (bones) in the middle ear to move. These bones are called the malleus, the incus, and the stapes (also known as the hammer, anvil, and stirrup).
The smallest bone, the stapes, moves the oval window between the middle and inner ear. When the oval window moves, fluid in the inner ear send vibrations to the cochlea.
Within the inner ear, thousands of tiny hairs move as the fluid inside the cochlea moves. The movement of these hairs sends signals through the auditory nerve to the brain. The hearing center of the brain then translates these movements into sounds that we recognize.
Sensorineural hearing loss
This type of hearing loss occurs when there is a problem in the cochlea (part of the inner ear).
Patients with sensorineural hearing loss can have a varying amount of hearing loss (slight to profound) and may have difficulty hearing and understanding speech clearly.
Sensorineural hearing loss is typically treated with the use of hearing aids or other hearing technologies; it cannot be medically or surgically corrected. While this type of hearing loss is permanent, most children will benefit from hearing aids or other hearing technologies, along with hearing therapy.
Conditions associated with sensorineural hearing loss include:
Mixed hearing loss
This type of hearing loss occurs when a child has both conductive hearing loss and sensorineural hearing loss. People with mixed hearing loss may have damage to the outer ear, the middle ear, the inner ear, and/or the nerve that connects the inner ear and the brain.
Auditory neuropathy (also called auditory neuropathy/auditory dyssynchrony)
This type of hearing loss occurs when sound enters the inner ear normally, but is not sent from the inner ear to the brain correctly. People with auditory neuropathy may have normal hearing or hearing loss, and usually have trouble understanding speech. Auditory neuropathy can affect people of all ages. A very small percentage of people with hearing loss have auditory neuropathy.
All types of hearing loss (conductive, sensorineural, or mixed) can vary from mild (only a little hearing loss) to profound (little or no usable hearing).
Most children have some degree of measurable hearing. Only a very small percentage of children with hearing loss experience complete deafness.
The degree of hearing loss refers to how much hearing loss is present. There are five broad categories used to describe the degree of hearing loss. The numbers listed below represent the lowest frequency (or softest) sounds a person can hear.
People with slight hearing loss (20 – 25 dB) may have trouble hearing faint (quiet) speech. They may also have to listen carefully in important or difficult situations.
For people with mild hearing loss, understanding speech can be difficult. They can usually hear well if they are listening to a single person speak in a quiet situation. However, they have trouble hearing faint or distant speaking. People with mild hearing loss usually can benefit from hearing aids or FM systems.
Listening is a strain for people with moderate hearing loss. While they can understand what a person says if the person is close, it can be difficult for them to hear someone else in a noisy environment. People with moderate hearing loss may miss 50 – 75% of speech in a conversation, and often need to have part of the conversation repeated. People with moderate hearing loss usually can benefit from hearing aids or FM systems.
People with moderate – severe hearing loss can miss up to 100% of speech in a conversation, and need for a conversation to be very loud. Again, people with moderate – severe hearing loss usually can benefit from hearing aids or FM systems.
People with severe hearing loss may hear a loud voice, if the person speaking is one foot (12 inches) away from his/her ear. They may be able to identify noises in their environment (for example, a paper rustling or traffic outside), but often appear to be ignoring conversation from the people around them.
People with profound hearing loss are considered to be deaf. They may detect very loud sounds, and are usually aware of vibrations (movements) around them. People with this degree of hearing loss may rely on vision (sight), rather than hearing, as their main way of communicating with other people. People with profound hearing loss may benefit from treatments or therapies that amplify sound (make sounds louder), but may benefit more from a cochlear implant.
For more information about the treatments and therapies mentioned on this page, please click here.
This describes whether the hearing loss is unilateral (hearing loss in one ear only) or bilateral (hearing loss in both ears).
Children with symmetrical hearing loss have the same degree and configuration of hearing loss in both ears. Children with asymmetrical hearing loss have a different degree and/or configuration of hearing loss in each ear.
Progressive hearing loss is hearing loss that becomes worse over time. Sudden hearing loss is hearing loss that occurs quickly (within less than 90 days, or 3 months) and requires immediate medical attention to identify its cause and treatment.
Fluctuating hearing loss is hearing loss that changes, sometimes getting better and sometimes getting worse. This type of hearing loss is usually associated with conductive hearing loss (caused by an ear infection, for example), but may be present in other conditions. Stable hearing loss is hearing loss that does not change over time.
There are many different causes of hearing loss. Hearing loss in infants and children is most commonly caused by fluid in the middle ear or ear infections. These are usually treatable.
People may have syndromic hearing loss (hearing loss associated with other symptoms or features of a condition) or nonsyndromic hearing loss (usually caused by a change within one of the genes related to hearing).
Hearing loss can also happen due to exposures to certain viruses, diseases, or drugs; long-term exposure to noise; complications related to birth; tumors; or aging.

transcript:
Penguins can't afford to lose track of their child.
The chick's survival depends on it.
Parents will dive down almost 800 feet to find fish for their chick.
Then, after a hard day at the office, they return home to their islands around the Antarctic...and try to find their child.
It's like a shopper wondering where they parked their car.
This is no trivial matter.
If the parent feeds the wrong chick, theirs can starve to death.
Fortunately, they have an astonishing solution.
A parent can zero in on the audio frequency of its chicks chirp above the din of the thousands of equally loud parents and their chicks.
And the chicks can zero in on their parents call as well.
It's like walking into a stadium full of fans all talking at the same time and being able to pick out the voice of your child or your parents.
If only they had a special call for: "Excuse me, coming through."

Lacuna Coil's guitarist & drummer leave band
Listen to Lacuna Coil on iHeartRadio
Lacuna Coil will have some lineup changes to deal with before they hit the road on "Revolver's" Hottest Chicks in Hard Rock tour this week.
Guitarist Cris "Pizza" Migliore and drummer Cristiano "Criz" Mozzati have left the Italian metal band, but singer Christina Scabbia says there was no animosity behind the departures. She tells "Blabbermouth" it was the friendliest split ever, adding that it was a "serene" decision on the part of Migliore and Mozzati that was "fully accepted" by the rest of the band.
Lacuna Coil's current guitarist Marco Biazzi is set to take over all guitar parts, while Ryan Blake Folden will fill in on drums.
The band is scheduled to join Sick Puppies, Eyes Set to Kill, and Cilver for the Hottest Chicks in Hard Rock tour starting Thursday, February 20th in Wilmington, North Carolina.

Download AccessChk(359 KB)
As a part of ensuring that they've created a secure environment Windows administrators often need to know what kind of accesses specific users or groups have to resources including files, directories, Registry keys, global objects and Windows services. AccessChk quickly answers these questions with an intuitive interface and output.
AccessChk is a console program. Copy AccessChk onto your executable path. Typing "accesschk" displays its usage syntax.
Usage: accesschk [-s][-e][-u][-r][-w][-n][-v]-[f <account>,...][[-a]|[-k]|[-p [-f] [-t]]|[-h][-o [-t <object type>]][-c]|[-d]] [[-l [-i]]|[username]] <file, directory, registry key, process, service, object>
If you specify a user or group name and path, AccessChk will report the effective permissions for that account; otherwise it will show the effective access for accounts referenced in the security descriptor.
By default, the path name is interpreted as a file system path (use the "\pipe\" prefix to specify a named pipe path). For each object, AccessChk prints R if the account has read access, W for write access, and nothing if it has neither. The -v switch has AccessChk dump the specific accesses granted to an account.
The following command reports the accesses that the Power Users account has to files and directories in \Windows\System32:
accesschk "power users" c:\windows\system32
This command shows which Windows services members of the Users group have write access to:
accesschk users -cw *
To see what Registry keys under HKLM\CurrentUser a specific account has no access to:
accesschk -kns austin\mruss hklm\software
To see the security on the HKLM\Software key:
accesschk -k hklm\software
To see all files under \Users\Mark on Vista that have an explicit integrity level:
accesschk -e -s c:\users\mark
To see all global objects that Everyone can modify:

For the records: Here some notes on the import of http://www.vim.org/tips to this wiki.
I (bastl) joined the discussion on firstname.lastname@example.com on the wiki thing late, but since I love the idea (and technical possibilities) of wikis, I joined in and in the end did it on my own. But I was standing on the shoulders of giants. Let me give some credits here:
Credits Edit
- vimtips.py by Ali Polatel
This was a great python script, I used and adapted heavily. Well documented, well structured. It was very easy to dive in with nothing more than some general object-oriented experience and some more specific experiences with Regexes. (have you read Mastering Regular Expressions ??)
A Mediawiki bot that allows to upload pages in bulk. Not too elegant, but useful.
- wikipediafs by Mathieu Blondel
Even cooler than bulkinsert.php: A filesystem that allows to deal with mediawiki articles as with normal files. Edit them with vim, moven them with mv, copy them with cp. Great piece of work.
- mwdumper
A great little tool to process mediawiki dumpfiles.
- #wikia on freenode
The Wikia community. Very kind ppl that help immediatly with everything that's related to mediawiki or wikia. Thanks to Splarka, Rieke, Datrio, Sannse and everyone I forgot ... The support is great.
Tom originally started this wiki, and pushed the discussion on email@example.com forward by setting arbitrary deadlines. Very cool :-)
- firstname.lastname@example.com
The maillist of vim was quite eager in discussion of this task. Thanks for all tips and remarks!
Procedure Edit
- wget all the HTML from http://www.vim.org/tips
- install a local mediawiki to test, mount it with wikipediafs
- use vimtips.py to generate files directly in the wikipediafs (two files at once: VimTip123 as a redirect to the real page)
- some tips failed since wikipediafs is a very young tool. catch these tips and process them with bulkinsert.php to my local mediawiki.
- do a dump export of the local mediawiki
- post process it with mwdumper (filter out only vimtips)
- send the dumpfile to wikia.com and let the wikia-admins do a dump import
Sounds complicated? It was :-) In fact I repeated steps 2 to 4 very often for testing purposes. Regexes on all those vim commands (e.g. [[) are really nasty. And the many different tools and programming languages (python, php, bash, mediawiki-markup, regexes) made life additionally complicated, but in the end it was fun ...
Notes on vimtips.py Edit
to be done

I spent a couple of hours reading code and believe that I've identified all the pain points for allowing relocation of system catalogs (ie, assigning them new relfilenodes during cluster-style VACUUM FULL, REINDEX, etc). It's definitely not a trivial project but it's not out of reach either --- I estimate I could get it done in a couple or three days of full-time effort. Given the potential benefits I think it's worth doing. Rough notes are attached --- comments? regards, tom lane Change pg_class.relfilenode to be 0 for all rels for which a map file should be used instead. Define RelationGetFilenode() to look to the physaddr info instead, and make all internal refs go to that instead of reading rd_rel->relfilenode directly. Define pg_relation_filenode(regclass) and fix external refs (oid2name, pg_dump) to use that instead. In zeroth cut, just have relcache.c substitute the OID in place of reading a map file. Possibly it should always do that during bootstrap. How should bootstrap decide which rels to insert zero for, anyway? Shared definitely, pg_class, ... maybe that's enough? Or do we need it for all nailed local catalogs? local state contains * shared map list * this database's map list * list of local overrides to each on-disk map list At commit: if modified, write out new version; do this as late as possible before xact commit At abort: just discard local-override list "Write" must include generating a WAL entry as well as sending a shared-inval signal * write temp file, fsync it * emit WAL record containing copy of new file contents, fsync it * atomically rename temp file into place * send sinval During relation open, check for sinval before relying on current cached value of map contents Hm, what about concurrent updates of map? Probably instantiate a new LWLock or maybe better a HW lock. So write involves taking lock, check for updates, finally write --- which means that local modifications have to be stored in a way that allows re-reading somebody else's mods. Hence above data structure with separate storage of local modifications. We assume rel-level locking protects us from concurrent update attempts on the same map entry, but we don't want to forbid concurrent relocations of different catalogs. LWLock would work if we do an unconditional read of the file contents after getting lock rather than relying on sinval signaling, which seems a small price considering map updates should be infrequent. Without that, writers have to hold the lock till commit which rules out using LWLock. Hm ... do we want an LWLock per map file, or is one lock to rule them all sufficient? LWLock per database seems problematic. With an HW lock there wouldn't be a problem with that. HW lock would allow concurrent updates of the map files of different DBs, but is that worth the extra cycles? In a case where a transaction relocates pg_class (or another mapped catalog) and then makes updates in that catalog, all is well in the sense that the updates will be preserved iff the xact commits. HOWEVER we would have problems during WAL replay? No, because the WAL entries will command updates to the catalog's new relfilenode, which will be interesting to anyone else if and only if the xact gets to commit. We would need to be careful about the case of relocating pg_class itself though --- make sure local relcache references the new pg_class before any such updates happen. Probably a CCI is sufficient. Another issue for clustering a catalog is that sinval catcache signalling could get confused, since that depends on catalog entry TIDs which would change --- we'd likely need to have relocation send an sinval signal saying "flush *everything* from that catalog". (relcache inval on the catalog itself doesn't do that.) This action could/should be transactional so no additional code is needed to propagate the notice to HS standbys. Once the updated map file is moved into place, the relocation is effectively committed even if we subsequently abort the transaction. We can make that window pretty narrow but not remove it completely. Risk factors: * abort would try to remove relation files created by xact, in particular the new version of the catalog. Ooops. Can fix this by telling smgr to forget about removing those files before installing the new map file --- better to leak some disk space than destroy catalogs. * on abort, we'd not send sinval notices, leaving other backends at risk of using stale info (maybe our own too). We could fix this by sending the sinval notice BEFORE renaming into place (if we send it and then fail to rename, no real harm done, just useless cache flushes). This requires keeping a nontransactional-inval path in inval.c, but at least it's much more localized than before. No problem for HS since we have the WAL record for map update to drive issuing sinvals on the slave side. Note this means that readers need to take the mapfile lock in shared mode, since they could conceivably get the sinval notice before we complete the rename. For our own backend we need cache flushes at CCI and again at xact commit/abort. This could be handled by regular transactional inval path but we end up with a lot of redundant flushing. Maybe not worth worrying about though. Disallow catalog relocation inside subtransactions, to avoid having to handle subxact abort effects on the local-map-changes state. This could be implemented if desired, but doesn't seem worth it at least in first pass.

They were expecting more 5C sales.
The people were expecting cheaper 5C's.
They could of both gotten what they wanted if Apple had cheaper 5C's.
Honestly, the problem is Apple compromised their quality standard with the 5c. We don't buy Apple products simply because of the way they perform. We buy them because they're works of art. Copying Samsung's style of cheap plastics was a horrible idea, and they should have known that because of how much people loved the iPhone 4 at launch vs the 3G(s). The 5c feels like a big step backward sitting on the shelf next to the 5s. Besides, why would I want the cheap looking 5c when I could just buy someone's used iPhone 5 online for the looks? Better materials, better quality, better sales.
^what he said^
An 'S' upgrade never brings a change in form-factor.
The i-6 will make or break Apple as a premiership player.
They cannot go on ignoring the 50+% sales loss that the small screen is costing them.
If they really bring it on with 4.5 and 5.0" iPhones, they'll be right back on track.
Why ?
Because as configurable as Android may be, it's still nowhere near iOS as a user experience.
The rumourmill should start grinding into action come the Spring and then we'll start seeing absolutely nothing ... or a major exodus, as people wait for the bigger i-6 ... or upgrade their i-4 and 4S's to Androids after waiting forever for Apple to finally acquiesce to this particular demand of a sizable chunk of long-suffering adherents.
I don't doubt there's a significant group asking for larger screen - but NOT a big enough number for them to tackle the huge problem of battery life and other issues that the larger screen brings on. Yes, I know Samsuck does it.. But their battery life sucks because of it. Plus Retina quality screen (which Samsuck doesn't have) is harder to achieve with even a 4.5.
So don't hold your breath on the larger screen thing in iP6.
I just don't get the craze for giant phones. They look so silly in people's hands and up against their ears. Get a tablet.
You may want to check out pixel density's for the latest phones too: List of displays by pixel density - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The S4 and HTC One as well as quite a few others have higher pixel density's than the iPhone.
Im using a 5C supplied by my job. I was skeptical at first but I have grown to love it. One thing I really like is that over time...you won't see this phone depreciate as fast. Meaning it can be dropped and take a ding without denting or chipping. Metal and glass cannot. :]
Could there be room for a bigger battery - sure.. But from my understanding of battery mechanics.. "size" does not necessarily mean better performance... (actually that axiom is true of 'other things in life too'.. wink,wink...)
"I never said it wasN'T a nice screen".. Edited now in original post..
Point being -- the Samsungs DO have nice screens... Inferior to iPhone in my opinion.
I'm surprised that you had better experience with the 5 over the S4. My brother in law had terrible battery life on his iphone 5. He too switched to the S 4 and says the battery life is better in his experience. I thought you were just spouting off so I apologize for doubting that you had experience with the S4. I always have 3 email accounts pushed to my phones so that is the same. I've never heard that the 4S had the worst battery life. I didn't find it any worse than my 3GS which I had prior to my 4S.
When I had an i5 the battery was pretty much on par with my S4, I had both at the same time and used them very similarly. My 5S has been a definite improvement over both.

Council Approves CPS Energy Rate Increase
San Antonio City Council, following a two hour debate, voted 8-2 this morning to approve a 4.25% rate increase for CPS Energy customers, which will take effect in February.
1200 WOAI news reports that Councilman Carlton Soules, who represents northeast side District 10, and Rebecca Villagran, who represents southeast side District 3, voted against the rate increase.
Debate was lively, with opponents like Bob Martin of the Homeowner Taxpayer Association saying that the biggest problems facing low income people and senior citizens these days is government.
"The middle class and seniors on fixed incomes are under attack," Martin said. "By who? By their very own government."
Several council members expressed concerns about the operations of CPS Energy, and Doyle Beneby, the CEO of the utility, said he has heard those concerns.
"These include our bonus and payout levels, and questions about whether our residential rates are subsidizing industrial and commercial rates," Beneby said.
One interesting proposal came up during the debate. Several City Council members said they will push for a single bill which will include fees for all of the utilities that citizens pay, CPS Energy, SAWS, the garbage collection.
Beneby said the rate hike will not be the last. He says CPS Energy expects to request rate increases in 2015 and 2018. He also said the utility is moving aggressively to diversify its fuel portfolio to renewables like wind and solar, and said that will benefit residential customers by allowing CPS Energy to avoid the expense of meeting planned federal environmental standards. He pointed out that the decommissioning of CPS Energy's Deely power station in itself will save rate payers some $600 million in the costs of coal scrubbing equipment. The vote means a windfall for the city of San Antonio.
Since the city owners CPS Energy, the vote today will mean an extra $5.5 million a year for the city, essentially making this a tax increase.

CINCINNATI (AP) -- National Weather Service reports say four possible tornados have been spotted in southwest Ohio, where several injuries and widespread property damage have been reported as a storm system tears through the region.
Reports say touch downs were reported near Moscow, Bethel, Bentonville and Otway, with several homes destroyed, mobile homes blown into streets and trees and utility poles leveled. The director of the Clermont County Communication Center tells the Cincinnati Enquirer at least 20 homes were heavily damaged in Moscow. She says it appears all those trapped have been rescued and that an undetermined number of injured people were taken to a hospital.
The storm is part of a system stretching from the Gulf Coast to the Great Lakes, causing extensive damage in Indiana, Tennessee, Kentucky and Alabama.

Sx300 - Missing Mirror Configuration on Firmware 22.214.171.124
I have several SG300-10 and SF302-08P switches running with L2-mode, and after I upgraded their firmware to 220.127.116.11, they began to record the following logs every one hour.
- Severity: Warning
- Description: %COPY-W-TRAP: The mirror-config file is illegal due to failure of previous copy operation/s to mirror-config.
Also I found that I didn't see the Mirror Configuration file on the Configuration File Table in the Configuration Files Properties page.
I have had no problem so far but I don't think I can leave this situation as it is. Can someone give me any advice what I need to do, please?

Renovations underway at Burke Lakefront Airport
(Cleveland) - Burke Lakefront Airport is getting a new coat of indoor paint...and more.
Burke is undergoing exterior renovations including repainting the terminal building, removal of the canopy covering the front terminal walkway, new landscaping, window tinting and new LED lighting on the exterior facade and walkway.
Airport Director Ricky Smith says, "Burke Lakefront Airport is a vital piece of Cleveland's lakefront and these improvements will make it more enjoyable for the people who depend on teh facility."
The Burke exterior was repainted in 2013. Crews started removing the canopy Monday. That will take about a week.
A new walkway, landscaping and lighting will follow and will take about two weeks from their start date.
Window tinting will depend on weather.
New fencing and a security gate will be upgraded to enhance the look of the terminal building and provide additional security for tenants and users of the airport.

On the surface, drummer Matt Wilson may seem like a juxtaposition. After all, where else would you find terms such as "unabashed mainstream," "swirling psychedelia," "extraordinarily masterful" and "house party" nestled comfortably together to describe a single musician?
For Wilson, it's not about labels. It's about the music.
Wilson is bandleader for several groups, and when he comes to Salt Lake City, it will be with the Arts and Crafts band Terrell Stafford on trumpet and flugelhorn, Gary Versace on piano, Hammond organ and accordion, and Martin Wind on bass.
"This group started out being a little more molded around a classic jazz group where maybe the Matt Wilson Quartet was a little bit wilder," Wilson said. "Now I think I've sort of blurred those boundaries purposely, because all the music can be all the music all the time."
For Wilson, what makes each of his groups distinctive from the others isn't so much the different instrumentation as it's the individual members. "As the great artist Marcel Duchamp said, 'I don't believe in art, I believe in artists,' and I kind of feel the same way, too. I believe in the musicians. The musicians are really what are key."
In addition to the standard concert, Wilson and his group will be conducting a workshop at the University of Utah.
Russell Schmidt, director of jazz activities at the U., said the workshop is probably going to be more of a performance clinic by the artists than a master class with students performing. But "given Matt's great creativity and spontaneity, it'll probably take whatever shape feels right to him in the moment," Schmidt said.
At the time of the interview, Wilson was preparing to head to the Kennedy Center for an educational clinic and concert, which he says he loves to lead.
Because it's another chance to talk about the music, which Wilson tries to do whenever possible, whether he's talking to the next generation of jazz musicians or to listeners and fans. "We hope we give people different points of entry into the music. I think that's really, really key. I [also] enjoy the challenge of speaking to folks about the music and making sure we're available to talk about what we do, what we did that evening."
The GAM foundation, which is sponsoring Wilson's Salt Lake City concert and workshop, has been sponsoring similar events every year since the concert series launched in 1994.
Co-founder Gordon Hanks said jazz exposure and education was the reason he and Michael MacKay started the foundation to begin with. "We felt that there was a huge number of young people who weren't being exposed to the art form at all," he said.
After launching the concert series, the GAM foundation donated more than $1 million of tickets to local high school and colleges across the Wasatch Front. "We wanted to try to get young people in those programs to understand what the art form was about and to increase the awareness, appreciation and popularity of the art form," Hanks said.
Now, they charge $10 for student tickets, but they still actively market to local schools and encourage students to attend. And when the funds are available, they sponsor performance clinics like the one Matt Wilson will be doing.
"We have many U. students who attend the JazzSLC series, taking advantage of the discounted tickets available to them," said Schmidt, from the U. "And in the days after a Capitol Theatre performance, we often find a setting to talk about the particular artist's concert, trying to determine what our students enjoyed the most and why. It usually leads to a deeper discussion into the nature of improvised music and how certain approaches and techniques can truly connect with an audience."

text: Cowboys' season hinges on QB's ability to find another gear during brutal stretch By Calvin Watkins | Forget about last Monday's five-interception game and the stagnant offense for a moment. The Dallas Cowboys' next five weeks rest on the shoulders of quarterback Tony Romo. Tony Romo needs to put his last performance behind him and focus on a difficult five-week stretch that begins next Sunday in Baltimore. It's not about Romo trying to do too much, because he is and should be given credit for trying to make plays within a struggling offense. But the NFL is about results, and Romo's are not good right now. Starting Sunday in Baltimore, Romo has to play better than his counterpart at quarterback. He can't afford to be outplayed again, as he was by the Chicago Bears' Jay Cutler that Monday night in Arlington. If he is, then this season for the Cowboys will become lost. http://espn.go.com/dallas/nfl/story...ty-outplay-formidable-qbs-unforgiving-stretch

Review Brigham Young University
I love BYU! It is an amazing place to get an education because you are surrounded by the best of the best. There are amazing professors in all of the colleges that genuinely care about your success. The students are also very driven-- everyone wants to become the best they can be so there is a lot of competition. This is a good thing because you will push yourself and learn so much so you can be prepared to lead when you get into your career. Lastly, I love BYU because there are opportunities all over to serve! It keeps everyone thinking about other people and makes BYU a positive, uplifting university!
BYU is a fantastic school with incredible professors and a great active-learning environment. Everyone that goes to school there wants to learn and do their best. It is very competitive, but the students and teachers are always nice and willing to help if you ask. I've loved the last couple of years I've gone to school here, and although it has been extremely challenging, I wouldn't want to go to college anywhere else!
This has been a great college experience - it has offered me an insane amount of options compared to other universities, as far as major selection, teacher-student ratio and involvement, clubs, fine arts, community events, service and volunteer opportunities, and research and work experience. Regular on-campus events include weekly speeches from renowned leaders from all religions, institutions, causes, fields, and industries. This is THE place to be for anyone who wants an academically rigorous, culturally diverse experience (in spite of it being attended mostly by white kids) and the local and international connections that a large university has to offer, with the close-knit feeling of a small campus. It will prepare you well for the outside world if you take advantage of all of the resources it has to offer!

Night feeding a toddler
Today at the pregnancy and parenting network one of the women asked for suggestions or ideas on how to manage breastfeeding her toddler at night time. Before the toddlers sibling was born - the toddler was weaned at night. However once the baby was born and there was an abundant supply of breastmilk - the toddler took a renewed interest in breastfeeding and feeding through the night. Feeding both baby and toddler through the night is taking its toll. Can you suggest any strategies to help the woman in this situation?

Weaning toddler at night
Milk supplies are often at their highest in the morning, and lowest in the evening. One suggestion would be to let the toddler know that "baby needs Mommy's milk at night". Be sure to cuddle a lot during the day time feedings so that the toddler feels secure.
If toddler is in the same bed as mum, try transitioning the toddler to his own bed (or at least to the other side of Daddy) so that the toddler does not smell mum's milk and is not awakened by the baby at night.
One way to transition the toddler to his own bed is to start with nap times. Once he is going down for naps in his own bed, then transitioning at night will be much easier.
Another thing to try would be giving the toddler a scrambled egg or some nut butter before bed in order to be sure that he has enough protein in his tummy and doesn't wake up hungry at night.

Those are good suggestions Kate! I've also heard mom can wear a thick sweater at night to block the smell when trying to night wean an older child. However, that is not always as possible with the weather. Putting the toddler on dad's side is a great idea.

This is interested as, whilst I am only feeding my toddler, I have recently been finding it very tiring feeding him during the night. I think I will try a scrambled egg snack last thing at night tonight. Thank you for the above suggestions.
To be honest, I'm finding it a bit of a dilemma as I want to give him all the breast milk he asks for but I am finding it quite draining now I am a working mum too. We are still co-sleeping (which is great for bonding and cuddles) but I'm wondering about him having his naps in a cot to give him the option of sleeping like this if he likes at night. I want to do the best for him and don't want to 'impose' my parenting ideals on him.
