'toast' is a simple package manager for *nix. It automatically locates and downloads source code, determines how to compile it, installs each package in its own directory tree, and makes the resulting binaries available through an encap/GNU stow-like symlink tree. It also supports binary packages. It is often used to install and manage software in a non-root user's home directory. Since each package's installed files are stored separately, it's easy to quickly install, uninstall, upgrade, recompile, or temporarily disable different software packages or different versions of the same packages, even if they conflict with each other.

Seagulls move for Vicente
Poyet makes move for Spanish star
By Pete O'Rourke - Follow me: @skysportspeteo. Last Updated: 31/08/11 1:17pm
Vicente: Could be set for shock move to Brighton
Sky Bet
Football Betting
Skysports.com understands Brighton are closing in on the signing of ex-Valencia winger Vicente.
Vicente is available on a free transfer after his Valencia contract expired and he has been chased by a string of clubs.
The former Spain international has received several offers to stay in La Liga, but the 30-year-old is understood to be open to a move to the England.
Brighton are now ready to offer Vicente a move to the Championship with Gus Poyet using his contacts in Spain to set up the move for the winger.
The Seagulls have shown their ambition this summer by beating a host of clubs to the signing Craig Mackail-Smith and Poyet is now hoping to bring Vicente to the Amex Stadium.

Description (last modified by cscott)
It would be helpful for school administrators & "power users" if the contents of root's home directory and in particular .bash_history could be flagged such that it would not get nuked on upgrades.
hhardy originally also wrote:
It would also be helpful if the list of installed rpm packages could be maintained through an upgrade. Not necessarily the rpm's themselves but a list of the rpm's in the order they were previously installed/deinstalled so the system could be more easily restored to a similar state to what it was pre-upgrade.
This latter paragraph is #6432

comment:1 Changed 9 years ago by cscott
Closely related to #6432. Root's directory could be saved by moving it to /home/root, if that is desirable.

Retitling and narrowing, since #6432 has been mostly addressed.

Patch pushed to pilgrim for joyride; this is probably *not* going into 8.2.
Patch needed to olpc-utils to make sure /home/root exists after upgrade:
Reassigning to mstone.
comment:5 Changed 9 years ago by cscott
Note that this move conforms to the FHS as I read it:
Since the pilgrim patch:
creates a symlink for /root, and the standard explicitly leaves it up to us where root's home directory 'really' lives.
comment:6 Changed 9 years ago by erikos
I get 'No directory root' when logging into a virtual console.
comment:7 Changed 9 years ago by cscott
erikos: yeah, that's why this bug is assigned to michael. The olpc-configure patch attached above would fix that.
comment:8 Changed 7 years ago by dsd
- Action Needed changed from review to package
- Milestone changed from 9.1.0-cancelled to 10.1.2
This is implemented in olpc-os-builder. need to add that olpc-utils patch for the 10.1.2 release.

- Action Needed changed from package to test in build
olpc-utils-1.0.27 ready for next build
comment:10 Changed 7 years ago by Quozl
- Action Needed changed from test in build to diagnose
olpc-utils-1.0.27 is present in os851 on XO-1.5 and XO-1, but root shell default directory is still /root in both Terminal and text console.
comment:11 Changed 7 years ago by Quozl
- os850, the /root directory on XO-1 does not exist, one sees No directory /root'' error on text console during login.
- os851, the /root directory on XO-1 does exist, and no error is reported.
Lacked a test case to resolve ambiguity. Ticket description says move root's home to /home/root.
comment:12 Changed 7 years ago by dsd
/root is a symlink to /home/root (and has been in all builds made by olpc-os-builder), so that part of the work was effectively done ages ago.
The remaining part of the ticket was to ensure the symlink gets created on upgrades, which was brought to our attention in #10278.
So your test case is: install 8.2.1, perform olpc-update to 10.1.2 os851, and ensure /root exists as a symlink to /home/root.
comment:13 Changed 7 years ago by Quozl
- Action Needed changed from diagnose to no action
- Resolution set to fixed
- Status changed from new to closed
Installed 8.2.1, did olpc-update to os851, verified /root is a symlink to home/root. Closing.

Johns Hopkins University Genetics and Public Policy Center
MEDIA CONTACT: Rhoda Washington
January 7, 2004
A new report by the Genetics and Public Policy Center at Johns Hopkins University outlines policy options to address the scientific and ethical challenges raised by genetic testing of human embryos. The report will be released at a public forum, "Custom Kids? Genetic Testing of Embryos," to be held on January 8 in Washington, D.C. At the forum, an independent
panel including former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, former Clinton White House Chief of Staff John Podesta and former National Institutes of Health Director Bernadine Healy will discuss the issues raised by genetic testing of embryos.
"New biomedical technologies have a tendency to sneak up on us," said Kathy Hudson, Ph.D., director of the Genetics and Public Policy Center. "This report and the policy forum are tools to catalyze broad public discussion about this profound use of genetic testing and aid decision-makers as they consider what policies can best keep pace with rapid advances in reproductive genetics."
The confluence of advances in human genetics and reproductive science has resulted in the ability to perform genetic tests on embryos produced by in vitro fertilization. This type of testing, known as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, involves the removal of one or two cells from the fertilized egg or embryo and analysis of the genetic material. Test results are then used
to select the embryos to transfer to a woman's womb to initiate a pregnancy.
Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) is used currently by families seeking to have a child free from a specific inherited genetic disease or, less often, to have a child with specific genetic characteristics. By testing embryos before a pregnancy has begun, PGD can reduce the need to terminate a pregnancy in which a fetus is found to have a genetic mutation.
PGD has been used to test for dozens of inherited diseases, to select embryos that will be a matched tissue donor for an ailing sibling and to select embryos based on sex.
PGD raises a number of scientific, ethical and policy issues. First, there are questions about the safety of the in vitro fertilization and embryo manipulation required for PGD and about the accuracy of the genetic tests that are used. Second, some find PGD, or its uses, morally unacceptable because it involves the creation, selection and destruction of human embryos. Third, there are questions of equity: many cannot afford PGD and
it is not clear whether and to what extent health insurers will cover it. Finally, there are broad ethical questions about the impact of PGD on family relationships, people living with disabilities, and society as a whole.
The Center's report, "Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis: A Discussion of Challenges, Concerns, and Preliminary Policy Options Related to the Genetic Testing of Human Embryos", details the concerns in each of these areas and presents an array of possible policy options. These options include leaving
decisions about PGD to individuals and their health care providers, government restrictions on PGD's use and availability, voluntary regulation by professional groups, and an outright ban on PGD.
PGD sits at the intersection of two technologies with a confusing regulatory status: assisted reproduction and genetic testing. In the United States, oversight of assisted reproductive technologies (ART) has been left primarily in the hands of the individual physicians and there is no uniform and comprehensive system to assure the accuracy and reliability of new genetic tests before they are offered in the clinic. Although there have
been calls for heightened oversight of PGD, this report is the first to outline the full range of policy alternatives and consider the potential effects, good and bad, of distinctly different choices.
The report is designed to catalyze informed public discussion about PGD, its implications and what, if any, policy process should be put in place to guide the development and use of this potent technology. Over the coming months, the Center will organize meetings across the country to discuss PGD
and actively seek out the informed attitudes and policy preferences of a representative sample of Americans. The Center will also convene meetings of stakeholders and experts in order to gain their feedback and input. The Center will then use input from all these sources to refine our PGD policy options and issue a complete set of options and public opinion data for consideration by policy makers.
The Center does not advocate for or against preimplantation genetic diagnosis or a particular policy approach. Instead, the Center is committed to providing objective information and analysis and encouraging an informed dialogue among a diverse array of interests. The goal is to ensure that policy decisions, even decisions to maintain the status quo, have been
undertaken with a clear-eyed understanding of their potential impact.
In developing the options, the Center was aided by its Reproductive Genetics Advisory Committee.
To register to attend the public forum "Custom Kids? Genetic Testing of Embryos," to be held Jan. 8, 2004, in Washington, DC, go to www.dnapolicy.org. The report will be available online on January 8 at www.dnapolicy.org .
The Genetics and Public Policy Center is a part of the Phoebe R. Berman Bioethics Institute at Johns Hopkins University and is funded by The Pew Charitable Trusts. The mission of the Genetics and Public Policy Center is to create the environment and the tools needed by decision makers in both the private and public sectors to carefully consider and respond to the challenges and opportunities that arise from scientific advances in genetics.

Placentia, employees reach deals
PLACENTIA The impasse is now in the past.
The City Council approved new policies, as well as agreements with two of its employee unions this week, contracts that require some employees to pay more into their own retirements and receive a token raise in return.
The action ends months-long negotiations between city administrators and the unions over pension costs and other catching points.
City officials hope the changes will help take at least a little pressure off the city's strained $23.2 million budget, which has a miniscule $500,000 reserve.
"I just want to say thank you to everybody," Councilman Scott Nelson said before voting to approve the deals. "This was difficult for everybody. I said the other night that we have great employees, and I mean it. Now they're out there, contributing substantial amounts to their pensions. … It's a great thing you've all come together and done."
Councilman Joseph Aguirre echoed that: "There was contention, but thank you to the employees for working toward a common goal."
As part of the agreement, current police employees covered under the Placenta Police Officers Association will begin paying 5 percent of their salaries toward their retirements; before, the city paid all of it, even after Placentia's other employees began contributing toward their retirements.
Police workers hired after July 1, 2013, will have to pay the full employee retirement contribution amount of 9 percent of their salaries. Current employees will receive a 3 percent cost-of-living raise.
The agreement will save the city $30,000 this fiscal year, according to city documents. It received unanimous approval from the City Council.
Another agreement, this one with the Placentia City Employees Association, gives employees a one-time, 1 percent cost-of-living increase and tweaks the roles of police dispatchers.
In addition, the council approved changing the city's vacation policy, replacing it with a hard cap on vacation and compensatory time. The idea is to prevent the hoarding of vast amounts of leave hours, with employees cashing it out when they quit or retire, causing a drain of tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars on the city's treasury.
"We've consolidated all that to a paid-time-off cap of 260 hours (about 32 workdays)," said Steve Pischel, the city's administrative services director. "This will help control our future liability."
The changes made as part of the second deal will cost the city $36,000 to implement, but save Placentia more than $200,000 annually from employee contributions to their retirement plans. The City Council voted 4-0 to approve the agreement. Mayor Jeremy Yamaguchi abstained; his father works for the Police Department.
The new contracts went into effect Wednesday, with retroactivity to July 1, the first day of the current fiscal year.

According to this Japanese news source, the ISU has turned down French federation's offer of the 2012 WC to be held in Tokyo instead of Nice, as they'd asked for the right for 2013 WC in return, Cinquanta stated.
Japanese federation is looking to bid for the 2015 WC meanwhile and Cinquanta said that he'd support the bid if submitted.
So...Didier really hasn't changed his tune at all, the whole "We all have a heart" BS notwithstanding.
I don't know about you, but the Japan Times author must feel like a fool now - at least he wrote in English, so most Japanese would not even get to read his naive article so he probably won't be laughed at while walking in the streets of Japan. Everyone and their dog knows the kind of person Didier Gailhaguet is within the figure skating circle. While everyone plays politics to some extent, no other skating federations aside from France and Russia have this legacy of one man owning their federation forever and ran them as their private business. That's a big difference.
[QUOTE=Mathman;558640On the "Art" thread Blue Dog posted Michelle Kwan's 1998 short program. In those years she did 3Lz+2T. 2A, and 3T. She ran off a succession of the finest miniature gems in the history of the sport.
Then the sport advanced a little and she had to up the ante. She had to go with a triple flip instead of triple toe. Her short programs were never as good again. Sport or art?[/QUOTE]
Actually, Kwan started doing the 3F in 1998 in the SP after the stress fracture in her left foot. She also removed the 3T-3T combo from her FS and made the 3T her last element in the FS that season because it wouldn't affect the balance of the competition or program.
For a moment I thought, why didn't Speedy turn down just "the right for 2013 WC in return?" part, but the next moment I realized that might be exactly what he did and that in that case the first proposal was taken back by the proposer as a consequence of this refusal of this (proposer's) additional condition.
Not only Gallagher looks foolish but the whole Japanese media now seems dumb to have taken the original proposal seriously. The Canadian fed turning down Didier was well known prior to this, so they believed it was something different than that.
It struck me as an obvious opportunity to make a "grand gesture" which would be awkward to grant given the follow on implications.

We've heard rumours about the Life OK serial jumping 20 years. And we are told the producers planning to end it. The lead actors have quit. What is going on?
Life OK's Do Dil Ek Jaan starring Nikita Sharma (Antara) and Ayaz Ahmed (Raghu) has been getting low TVT numbers (1494) for some time now. The makers have tried introducing new characters, tweaking the story line and even replacing actors, but nothing is working so far. According to rumours, Do Dil Ek Jaan will take a leap of 20 years and start afresh with a new set of actors. The recent episodes show Antara marrying Satya (Akshay Dogra) after learning that Raghu is her father's killer. In spite of being angry, Antara is unable to hate Raghu. Unforeseeable circumstances always bring them together, making the situation uncomfortable for both characters. On the other hand, Satya – who tricked Antara into marrying him- is upset that no matter what he does, she will never truly be his. Fate will soon bring Antara and Raghu together again, but in death. The story will apparently end with the death of the lovers, and the show will be carried forward by their children.
The lead actors have confirmed in an interview that they are leaving the show. They say that the daily soap will leaping forward in time, and will not include them. Producer Saurabh Tewari accepted that Do Dil Ek Jaan is doing a jump after a month, but was tight-lipped about any resignations.
We've also heard stories about the show ending by February next year. Which makes a time leap pointless, no? Wethinks the makers will probably wait till February to finally decide which way to go, depending on audience response. However, we believe that with Nikita and Ayaz gone, there is very little that will keep the daily soap afloat. Nonetheless, we wait and watch to see what happens next…

It is now clear, however, that with the help, on a growing scale, of the friends of progress all over the world the Spanish people will defeat the opposing army of Fascism. From the outset our committee has done all possible to organise support in Britain. We have co-operated in forming and assisted the work of the Spanish Medical Aid Committee and participated in arranging and financing the Committee of Enquiry, which exposed the extent of Fascist intervention in Spain. We are now assisting with the sending of the Youth Foodship to Spain. Now we are appealing for a special fund to help the valiant International Anti-Fascist force, which is taking the brunt in the defence of Madrid, and which has been a big factor in turning the scales against Franco. They have defended the women and children of Madrid against wholesale massacre. In their ranks are large numbers of German, Italian and Austrian Anti-Fascists, which our Committee have helped to get to Spain when the People's Front Government opened its frontiers to political refugees. The International Forces now require supplies of all kinds. Food, warm clothing, sanitary supplies, gas masks, transport, etc. As the numbers are rapidly growing we need all the help we can get. We appeal to you and your organisation to give liberally for this great work for humanity. Victory for them is a victory for world democracy and Peace. Yours faithfully. ISABEL. BROWN, Secretary.

Wendell Cox: High-speed rail's fiscal cliff
Recently, the U.S. Government Accountability Office issued its preliminary report on the proposed California high-speed rail line from Anaheim to San Francisco. GAO cited a failure to conduct risk and uncertainty analyses with respect to cost estimates, and failure to document substantial cost elements, such as stations and operating costs.
GAO backhandedly compliments the plans for containing "few mathematical errors." "Few mathematical errors," and insufficient risk analysis and cost documentation? This is just further indication of a project that has been poorly planned and administered. The taxpayers of California deserve better, as do taxpayers in North Dakota, New York and the 47 other states, who Gov. Jerry Brown and the high-speed rail machine want to pay for the project.
Thus far, the California High Speed Rail Authority has spent about $600 million without laying a single railroad tie or buying any property. This is a huge amount. San Diego built and opened its first light rail line, the Tijuana Trolley, for half as much (inflation-adjusted).
The world's leading research on high-speed rail, led by Oxford University Professor Bent Flyvbjerg, has found that high-speed rail construction costs average 45 percent more than promised by consultants and high-speed rail authorities. Flyvbjerg et al attributed these cost increases to optimism bias by project promoters, who the research surmised had engaged in "lying" (their rather strong word for academic research) to obtain project approval. The California high-speed rail project had exceeded the 45 percent average cost escalation (inflation adjusted) mark even before the voters were asked to approve the 2008 proposition to provide bond funds.
Since that time, the costs as envisioned in 2008 escalated by another 90 percent to 115 percent (inflation adjusted), to between $98 billion and $117 billion. The embarrassingly high number caused such an uproar that the California High Speed Rail Authority scaled back the project, to the present "blended" system which relies on modestly upgraded commuter rail lines (Caltrain in the Bay Area and Metrolink in the Los Angeles Basin) instead of dedicated high-speed rail lines. But make no mistake about it. The project has not become more cost effective, it has simply become part high speed rail and part not.
Under the "blended" plan, trains will not run as fast. Joseph Vranich and I had already shown in our 2008 Reason Foundation Due Diligence report that the "end-to-end" high-speed rail infrastructure was unlikely to deliver the promised 2:40 travel time between Los Angeles and San Francisco.
Just as the California High Speed Rail Authority has grossly under-estimated costs, its ridership forecasts may border on the absurd. Flyvbjerg, et al., showed that high-speed rail promoters usually overestimate ridership by 40 percent. Our analysis and others have pointed to likely optimism bias in the ridership forecasts. An independent report from the Institute of Transportation Studies at the University of California-Berkeley raised serious concern about the ridership forecasts. Yet, the California High Speed Rail Authority rejected calls to consult with the University of California researchers, citing instead the experience of its own consultants, participants in the same industry that routinely produces ridership estimates 40 percent above reality.
All of this is background for the financial difficulties faced by the high-speed rail line. The California High Speed Rail Authority is between $55 billion and $65 billion short of the funding it needs to complete the line. A number of less-than-promising alternatives have been suggested to close the gap.
The most disingenuous suggestion is to use "cap and trade" revenues under California's Assembly Bill 32. These revenues are intended to assist in the effort to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Yet, the high-speed rail line will play little or no part in this effort. As of the data available in 2008, the cost per GHG ton removed by the high-speed rail line would have at least been 40 times the maximum indicated by the United Nations International Governmental Panel on Climate Change. This would have made high-speed rail an extravagant GHG emission reduction strategy.
Things have only gotten worse. Under the "blended system," ridership will be lower. Since 2008, federal regulations have been adopted that could cut automobile GHG emissions by at least one half by 2035. These developments mean that the GHG emissions reduction estimates should be seriously reduced. Environmental consultant Joel Schwartz of Blue Sky Consulting Group submitted an analysis to CHSRA showing that it had used such an unreasonably low fuel economy standard that the resulting GHG emissions reduction estimate was overstated between 130 and 190 percent.
More recently, proponents have suggested private investment from sovereign wealth funds and pension funds. These funds looked to achieve aggressive return on investment goals. The record of private investment in high-speed rail, around the world, is dismal or worse. Sovereign wealth funds and pension funds will have no difficulty finding less risky and more lucrative investments than the California high-speed rail line.
Finally, the California High Speed Rail Authority continues to assume that it can obtain $40 billion or more from the federal government. Because of the "continued concern about federal spending," GAO notes that this "largest block of expected funds is uncertain." There is a good chance that the system may never be extended beyond the virtually useless Madera to north-of-Bakersfield segment.
The "federal share" for high-speed rail is about the same as two years of savings from lowering Social Security cost-of-living increases for the nation's retirees, as has been suggested in the "fiscal cliff" negotiations.
California's high speed rail line could be headed over its own fiscal cliff.

HYDE PARK, Wednesday—Johnny and Anne motored back to Boston on Monday so he could go to work on Tuesday. Jimmy left on Monday night, motoring to Newark airport to start back to California, feeling that he must get his work all up to date. I sense in all these young people a feeling of uncertainty about the future. A sense for the first time that whatever they have to do must be done now, quickly, for fear that something will interrupt the even tenor of life's ways. They join with you in feeling that this country should do all within its power to keep out of war, but they have no very clearly defined idea of what is going to happen. They have set themselves to prepare for uncertainties, for anything may happen and they must be ready for it.
We were discussing the 1914 psychology and the psychology of today and I think people are much more aware of what war will mean from the economic standpoint as well as the military. We have had a good many years of preparation watching Spain and China and the radio is a more vivid medium of information than the newspapers were in 1914. I think it has made us more realistic, more reluctant to see war anywhere in the world, but I also think it is making us feel the necessity of knowing what are the facts and thinking out for ourselves what the position of our country should be.
One of my young cousins has just sent me a rather interesting letter about a project which is being tried in New York City. I will tell you about it in the words of her letter: "There has been for years the need of a theatre in the Broadway district where the young player can play a variety of parts. `Theatregate' has taken the `Little Theatre' and has engaged an acting company of eleven. Nine of these are between the ages of twenty and thirty, the other two being older men. A thirty-five week season is planned opening in October, and the schedule calls for four or five plays. After the first year, a paying apprentice group will be added. The apprentices will be chosen from the most likely prospects of the leading schools in the country and contacts are already being made with dramatic schools in key cities with this in view. The apprentices will be allowed to take walk-ons and to assist in the technical work. As it is not the plan of `Theatregate' to keep the original eleven permanently, the best of the apprentices will automatically find places in the group and it is felt that the original eleven will find other jobs in the theatre."
This is a new departure for the theatre and, I feel, along very wise lines, so I shall watch what they do with great interest.
We intended to motor over to Westbrook, Connecticut, yesterday to picnic with our friends, Miss Lape and Miss Read, but we woke to heavy rain and stayed home. A friend dropped in on us instead, which is proof that in these days the unexpected always happens!

February 26th, 2008: So hey, the consensus seems to be that a skateboard on the computer-controlled treadmill doesn't have terminal velocity as it's CLASSICALLY understood, because that's a factor of wind resistance and hey, no wind.
Their are factors in how fast the ball bearings in the wheel will allow the board to go, but it's been my experience with longboards that once you reach a certain speed / resistance from the bearings, the heat the bearings generate will actually melt the plastic in the wheels, and then you're stuck walking home. SO, what this invention would let you do is get up to speed quick without any wind resistance, then go faster than you're comfortable going, and then either you'd fall off due to speed wobbles and hit the ground hard - which would hurt as much as hitting the ground at the speed you were going at in real life, since the difference between your speed and the ground would be the same - or your wheels would actually melt off and you'd probably hit the ground anyway.

A 27-year-old man was fatally wounded early yesterday outside a North Toledo bar, and a 23-year-old man has been arrested and charged with the shooting death, police said.
Hiram J. Beasley of 503 Clark St. was pronounced dead at St. Vincent Mercy Medical Center.
Micah Holmes of 525 Everett St. went to the Safety Building with his attorney later in the day and, after questioning, was arrested at 6:45 p.m. and charged with voluntary manslaughter.
He was being held in the Lucas County jail pending arraignment in Toledo Municipal Court.
Police were called to 3304 Beaumont Drive in North Toledo just after 2 a.m. to check on the safety of a person on the porch.
When officers arrived, they found Mr. Beasley with a gunshot wound to the chest.
Mr. Beasley was in a large group of disorderly people that had left the Knight Cap Inn, 3302 Buckeye St., shortly before police were sent to the Beaumont address. There was an altercation and Mr. Beasley was shot, police said.
Gail Beasley, Mr. Beasley's mother, said he is survived by an 8-year-old daughter.
Mrs. Beasley said her son, who attended Rogers High School, was self-employed.
The owner of the bar could not be reached for comment yesterday.

Pictures, heh? of the pad?
Pictures, heh? of the pad?
"We must, indeed, all hang together or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately." - Ben Franklin
No, I put it in the pad sleeve of the blackbird. If I am using my Clark I place between me and the hammock. Do you think it would be even warmer between hammock and orca?
I may be able to save you the trouble of taking a picture.
Does the shape of your pad resemble the OCF pad that comes with the HH SS system?
The sleeve is the best place to put it. For other hammocks without sleeves, I would prefer to put it in a tightly hung Baby Orca. It's the right size, and should work fine. I wouldn't do it with anything thicker than the 1/8" CCF pad. The advantages are that you would not have the discomfort of sleeping on top of a pad, and the pad will stay put. It's the same idea as the Molly Mac Gear 3/4 IX Insert, which goes inside the Baby Orca.
"We must, indeed, all hang together or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately." - Ben Franklin
Too late, already got the pics. The first is the pad, the shiny gray is duct tape to mend a tear (I love duct tape). The other is my mummy sleeping bag on top of the GG pad.
Nice and wide! Awesome.
You don't have any trouble with that pad creating uncomfortable creases underneath you?
