For the first time since the 1989 season, the Centre College football team has started a season 7-0 after defeating Millsaps College 24-22 Saturday, Oct. 29 in Jackson, Miss.
The Majors scored the first six points of the game on a pair of field goals, but the Colonels answered with 10 straight points on a 34-yard field goal by junior Jordan Gay (Danville, Ky.) and a 12-yard touchdown pass from senior quarterback Tyler Osterman (Monroe, Ohio) to sophomore receiver Rob Melillo (Louisville, Ky.).
Trailing 10-6 at the half, Millsaps answered with ten points of their own in the third quarter to take a 16-10 lead into the fourth quarter.
In the final frame, Centre drove to the Millsaps 42-yard line. On third and two the Colonels' next play went for only a yard setting up fourth and one. Junior running back Monte Scotton (Cleveland, Tenn.) took the hand-off from Osterman and went 41 yards for a touchdown and a 17-16 Centre lead.
Three drives later, senior Ryan Gallas (Prospect, Ky.) intercepted a Millsaps' pass at the Centre 41-yard line. The Colonels then needed only three plays to go 59-yards with senior running back Jonathan Pinque (Athens, Ala.) capping the drive with a 13-yard run to give Centre a 24-16 lead. Sotton also had a big play on the drive running for 37 yards on the second play.
The Majors took the ensuing kick-off and drove 72 yards on nine plays to pull within 24-22, but their pass attempt for the two-point conversion fell incomplete.
Millsaps had one more chance. With 3:07 on the clock, the Majors took over on their own 18-yard line. One fourth and one from the 50-yard line, the Centre defense stuffed the Millsaps ball-carrier short of the first down to give the Colonels the ball and the win.
The Majors out-gained Centre 405-237 in total offensive yards, but turned the ball over three times, while the Colonels did not have any turnovers in the game.
Scotton finished the game with 90 yards rushing on seven carries (12.9 avg.) with a touchdown. Pinque gained 62 yards on 18 carries (3.4 avg.) and also had a score.
Gallas led the defense in tackles for the second straight week tallying 10 tackles, including one tackle for a loss and the one interception.
Today's win by Centre, along with Trinity University's win over Birmingham Southern College, sets up a game between two unbeaten teams Saturday, Nov. 5 in San Antonio, Texas. The Colonels will play Trinity at 1:30 p.m. CST.

Jared's Graphic-Organic "Male Model"
Designer: Jared Sherman Epps
Location: Financial District, New York, New York
Size: 1,000 square feet
Now that we, and that chevron wall, have your attention… come inside the model apartment designed by Jared Sherman Epps for a fictional FiDi dude. No doubt that like the story's leading man, the stage Jared set is strikingly modern, ruggedly handsome, and packing a strong, well-placed punch when the situation warrants.
Like many of the designers, Jared Sherman Epps created a fictitious client when faced with adding character and style to one of five model apartments as part of a promotion by the building's developer, Metroloft. Jared created a fictional resident, deciding he was a single man, successful and stylish, setting up his chic camp at the southern end of Manhattan — one of the urban pioneers of sorts, reclaiming the residential potential of the still mostly-commercial Financial District.
Judging by the design decisions, swank and style, this is a man worth knowing. Worldly, a risk-taker, hands-on, likes a little leather, and isn't afraid of getting a little graphic (is it getting hot in here?). Jared paints the picture of his man-about-globe (starting with the herculean-scaled chevron wall that carries the vibe from entry to open-plan living/dining) with rugged woods and industrial metals.
But this is no typical bachelor pad, since Jared was careful to steer clear of all the typical traps. There's the Midas touches of that gold lamp and chandelier, the plush area rug, the mirrored side tables and upholstered, curvy headboard… all making the potential Mrs. About-Globe feel right at home, too.
What floorplan did you get and what was the square footage? One bedroom plus home office, 1,000 square feet.
What was your decorating budget? $10,000, all inclusive
Who's your fictional client/resident? A well-traveled bachelor who wants an easy maintenance apartment. Although a bachelor, he also wanted to incorporate design elements for his future female counterpart to enjoy and feel welcomed by.
What was your inspiration piece or first decision made? The pipe shelving. I wanted to bring an industrial feel into the space in combination with the clean bold chevron wall.
What was your biggest splurge? Why? The coffee table. It was the element in the space that set the tone for the organic, yet modern interior.
What "usual suspects" were on your shopping list? Etsy, Ikea, Pearl River, Ebay, West Elm.
What source will people find most surprising, given the budget? Sit Down NY. They are pricey, but having a few key pieces takes the less expensive items to the next level.
What were the biggest "builder basic" challenges in the unit? The amount of space to cover was the challenge for my unit. I had to spread the 10k throughout a living room, dining room, kitchen, office, bedroom and two bathrooms.
How did you decide what and where to paint? I utilized paint to create drama in the space, ie., the chevron. I also used paint on the ceiling to create more intimate spaces. The flow of paint was determined by the balance it would create within each space, as well as what accents/accessories would be put on the wall.
What's the one idea someone should steal from your design? That with a little time and creativity, and an inexpensive tool like paint, you can get a big look for a low cost.
Don't miss: The uplit wine box shelf; the newspaper wallcovering; the industrial and glamour mix.
Apartment Therapy Survey:
My Style: A balance of old and new, modern and organic, simple and complex. A style that combines all these elements seamlessly to allow people to appreciate the contrast between them — and enjoy the combination of them.
Inspiration: Function, travel, fashion and nature.
Favorite Element: Chevron feature wall.
Biggest Challenge: The biggest challenge was the budget, for the size and number of spaces that needed to be furnished.
What Friends Say: I make a dollar stretch further than anyone they know. They say I take a street find and combine it with other elements and create a million dollar look.
Biggest Embarrassment: Realizing the plumbing didn't work in the apartments AFTER consuming one too many beverages.
Proudest DIY: The newspapered bathroom walls — cheap, easy and endless hours of entertainment!
Biggest Indulgence: Pillows.
Best Advice: Define the feeling you want for the space at the beginning, and make sure to check in periodically throughout the design process to make sure the elements are speaking to that feeling.

Adorable Russian Grannies Sing 'Party For Everybody'
Six sweet Russian grannies have become a viral sensation after their appearance on the Eurovision Contest. What's the Eurovision Contest, you ask? Why it's only the biggest singing competition in all of Europe.
Held annually since 1956, each member nation submits a song to be performed on live television and then based on votes, determines the most popular song in the competition.
We now present to you, Russia's official entry for the 2012 contest.
Was that cute or what?! The grannies call their group Buranovskiye Babushki, and they originally consisted of eight members. Since the Eurovision Song Contest rules state a group can only have a maximum of six members, two grannies were sadly left out. The band sing most of their songs in Udmurt, a dialect spoken in their village of Buranovo in Eastern Russia. While you may not understand the lyrics, chances are you can't help but clap along to the song.
This isn't Buranovskiye Babushki's first shot at pop music glory-- they won third place in Russia's Eurovision song selection in 2010. The lyrics for 'Party For Everybody' were penned by the ladies themselves and Buranovskiye Babushki hope to make it further in the competition this time. If you think this girl group is the next Spice Girls, you may want to check out their cover of The Beatles classic 'Yesterday' below.

I've been having an issue with my 6EX apparently going into failsafe mode. I notice this problem when on a run and all of a sudden my sails are pulled in from full out. I can immediately reset by going to low throttle position on the transmitter and then back to high and everything works fine again.
I'm using a 7.2V battery so it's not battery failsafe or lack of voltage. During these incidents the rudder remains useable and I'm having this problem at what I consider very close range (less than 100 ft at times).
I've looked over everything and don't see what could be causing the problem. Is anyone else having this difficulty?

Over the past couple of months, I've been getting a number of emails asking me about SkyOS' status. Since I didn't know anything beyond what's on the SkyOS website, and because, well, I have no affiliation with SkyOS, I couldn't really reply to these emails. However, after yet another email sent to me late last week, I decided to simply... Email Robert Szeleney, the man behind the project.

RE: "Horse's Mouth"
by syadnom on Wed 3rd Mar 2010 04:11 UTC in reply to ""Horse's Mouth""
This isnt really accurate. Classically, a horse's age and health were determined by looking in it's mouth at its teeth. So to get the most accurate story about a horse's condition you would simply open its mouth, there fore you get it straight from the horses mouth. I grew up on a Horse ranch and we bred horses.

Shrimp and Squash Angel Hair Pasta Recipe
A Little Sunlight Goes a Long Way
Just as wonderful as eating Summer produce, Love in a Bowl demonstrates, is growing fresh Summer produce. Here, she shares some of her favorite garden-driven grub.
Summer is here once again. Although I have neglected my recipes, I certainly have not neglected my kitchen. My two little boys are eating me out of house and home! We planted a garden again this year. Really, we felt we had little choice. The extra sun that resulted from the removal of a shade tree, and the compost we have been making, have turned out to be a true culinary blessing. It is only the first week of June and we are overrun with squash, zucchini, half-runner green beans, and cucumbers! The cayennes and tomatoes aren't too far behind and my okra plants have just begun to blossom! Amazingly enough, the other corner of my little yard in the city is so cool and damp that it's still producing the most delicious lettuces and swiss chard! I am truly in Heaven. As the squash and zucchini begin to fill my kitchen, I am reminded of this world of recipes that I have been neglecting.
Tonight my husband is re-creating my squash casserole and we have revisited my zucchini bread recipe. I haven't made a frozen lasagna yet, but I did manage to create a shrimp pasta that got great reviews. My oldest son has a fondness for shrimp, so I decided to combine shrimp, zucchini, squash, angel hair pasta, and a fabulous pesto!
Read ahead to get the recipe.
For this recipe you will need:
1/2 lb shrimp (peeled and cleaned) *Smaller are better! I used 51/60s.
1 yellow squash
1 zucchini
3/4 lb angel hair pasta
Pesto Recipe Follows
Boil Pasta (Following directions on package)
Combine diced squash, diced zucchini and shrimp. Take aluminum foil and create a pocket. Add Mixture.
Place foil packet onto a grill (med-low heat). Stir shrimp/veggie mix occasionally.
Gradually begin to coat shrimp and vegetable mixture in pesto.
When shrimp and vegetables are cooked to your liking, combine mixture with pasta and toss.
Now, this pesto recipe is not precise and it can easily be altered. As you get to know me, you will find many of my recipes can be picked apart and redesigned. I picked all of these ingredients fresh from my garden. If you do not have access to a garden, you can purchase these herbs at most supermarkets or you can buy pre-made pesto (often found in the pasta sauce section of your supermarket).
Pesto Recipe:
Half of my Pesto mixture was Basil:
Fresh Sweet Basil (finely minced)
Italian Basil (finely minced)
The other half of the mixture consisted of:
Rosemary (finely minced)
Oregano (finely minced)
Thyme (finely minced)
I also added:
Roasted almonds (finely chopped)
Olive Oil
Powdered Parmesan Cheese
Lime Juice
I combine all the herbs with the almonds. Add enough Olive Oil to create a paste. Add Salt & Pepper to taste. Add Parmesan to taste. I add a small squeeze of lime juice and a pinch of sugar as well.
Pesto is such a fun option. There are endless varieties. The Basil, for example, could be replaced for peas! The almonds, traded for the more traditional pine nuts. As I always say, do your research, experiment, HAVE FUN, and discover a combination that is delicious and unique to you. This entire recipe is so simple and easy, and yet it exudes this sort of silky refined confidence that you can't help but love. I LOVE when that happens!

<chemistry> A liquid appearing like a heavy oil, colourless or yellowish, and consisting of a mixture of several glycerin salts of nitric acid, and hence more properly called glycerin nitrate.
It is made by the action of nitric acid on glycerin in the presence of sulphuric acid. It is extremely unstable and terribly explosive. A very dilute solution is used in medicine as a neurotic under the name of glonion.
A great number of explosive compounds have been produced by mixing nitroglycerin with different substances; as, dynamite, or giant powder, nitroglycerin mixed with siliceous earth; lithofracteur, nitroglycerin with gunpowder, or with sawdust and nitrate of sodium or barium; Colonia powder, gunpowder with nitroglycerin; dualin, nitroglycerin with sawdust, or with sawdust and nitrate of potassium and some other substances; lignose, wood fibre and nitroglycerin.
Pharmacologic action: Relaxes smooth muscle - dilates veins, dilates coronary arteries, reduces left ventricular filling pressure, lowers systemic vascular resistance, decreases myocardial oxygen demand.
Dose: One tablet (0.3 to 0.4 mg) sublingual, may repeat twice at 5 minute intervals Intravenous infusion: 0.5 - 2 mcg/kg per min.
Potential complications: May cause hypotension, especially if hypovolemic; headache is common.
Alternative forms: nitroglycerine.
Origin: Nitro- + glycerinn.

Two recent earthquakes in the Irish Sea have links to the Ice Age according to the Irish National Seismic Network (INSN).
The first earthquake was recorded at 5:37 am on Sunday, August 25, 2013 and reached a magnitude of 2.4 on the Richter Scale and measured about a mile deep. The second was recorded at the same spot at 9:58am and reached a magnitude of 3.2 and was about four miles deep.
The INSN, which monitors seismic activity in the area, says that the quakes were caused by a process called glacial rebound. During glacial rebound the stress that built up during the weight of glaciers during the Ice Age is slowly released.
Tom Blake, who is the INSN Director and works at the School of Cosmic Physics in the Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies explained to UTV, "Although Britain and Ireland are far from any plate boundaries, much of the region is still experiencing quakes due to the removal of the weight of ice sheets that once covered the land." He continued, "Occasionally this post-glacial isostatic rebound- the phenomenon of the land surface gradually returning to its pre-glacial contours- results in earthquakes of this magnitude, particularly in the northern half of the islands."
Blake also said, "This part of the Irish Sea has not seen any significant seismic activity in recent years, but ultimately their cause is likely to be no different than other earthquakes in Britain and Ireland. The last earthquake recorded in this part of the Irish Sea occurred in 1843 and is estimated to have been a magnitude 4 quake."
Fracking tests, which pump a mixture of water and chemicals into the ground to crack sedimentary rock to extract oils, have previously been blamed for tremors in the Lancashire area. The results of a study by Durham University experts in April found that fracking operations were "not significant" in causing earthquakes.
The second quake was the strongest quake recorded in Ireland or Britain since May 29, 2013 when a 3.8 quake struck North Wales. The two earthquakes were recorded 15 miles off the Lancashire coast, which is about 114 miles from Dublin. People in Dublin, Wexford, Wicklow, and Kildare said they felt tremors. The second, larger earthquake was recorded on INSN seismometers in Donegal and Wexford.
More tremors are possible in the coming days, but will likely be too small to feel. Blake said, "It is impossible to tell if stronger earthquakes will occur in the coming days and weeks, but aftershocks can be expected even if most if not all will be too weak to be felt."
The largest earthquake to impact Ireland occurred on July 19, 1984 on the Llyn Peninsula. It was the largest earthquake to hit mainland Britain hitting a 5.4 magnitude and it was felt on Ireland's east coast, Wales, and England. The quakes' aftershocks reached a 4.3 on the Richter scale and there was some structural damage along the east coast of Ireland.

Marrakech, Apr 29: Former French Open champion Francesca Schiavone won her first title in nearly a year Sunday, beating Lourdes Dominguez Lino 6-1, 6-3 in the Grand Prix SAR final.
The sixth-seeded Schiavone was dominant in the first set, breaking the Spaniard twice and not facing a single break point.
Schiavone, the 2010 French Open champion now ranked 48th, celebrated her first victory since winning the Strasbourg Open last May. The Italian didn't drop a set all tournament en route to winning her sixth title.
"This was a great week for me after a long, very difficult period," Schiavone said. "I think my two toughest matches of the week were my first match against (Petra) Martic, a very talented young player, and of course today against Lourdes. I played a really complete game today. It's never easy to play her."
Dominguez Lino broke in the fourth game of the second set to lead 3-1, but Schiavone broke straight back and saved further break points in the next game before breaking again to take control.
She leads Dominguez Lino 4-1 in head-to-head meetings. The 32-year-old veterans first played each other 15 years ago on clay at Spoleto in Italy, with the Spaniard winning for the only time.
"To win here is a great start to the clay court season for me and inspires me to keep working hard," Schiavone said. "I'm just enjoying playing for these crowds and giving the fans the best that I can give."
Dominguez Lino's last title was in February 2011 at Bogota, Colombia.
"It was my first time in Marrakech and I am really pleased with my result," she said. "All credit to Francesca."

Posted on May 18, 2011 in Miscellaneous
Are you tired of your racquet looking like everyone else's? Do you want to add a little style to your racquet to set it apart from the competition? Here are a few simple ways to add your own touch to a racquet.
An easy and cheap way to add a little something-something to your racquet is a vibration dampener. If you want something a little more personalized than the generic brand logo, try out Gamma's String Things. Each two-pack contains fun characters such as fish, pandas, and frogs as well as flowers and smiley faces. Wilson VibraFun dampeners come in packs of two and have even more designs such as a clover/broken heart combo, glitter hearts, multicolored flames, and a yin yang/peace sign combo. My personal favorite is the broken heart dampener. I show no mercy on the court, and my racquet agrees! Not only are these dampeners fun, but they also are useful for reducing string vibration.
If you are tired of the same old black or white overgrips and want to add a little color to your racquet, check out some of the over grips from Gamma, Prince and Forten. Gamma Hand Print Overgrips come in a variety of fun patterns to spice up your racquet. You can choose from four different colors of camouflage, including blue, grey, orange and pink. In addition, there is a fun flower print in two colors of red and blue and a checkered flag pattern. If are interested in a more subdued pattern, check out Prince's MicroSplat Overgrip that comes in a three pack with a variety of swirled colors. If you are not interested in patterns, check out the Forten Wrap-Tac O-Grip 60 pack that comes in eight assorted colors so you can match your grip to your racquet.
Think strings come in only neutral colors? Think again! Actually, there is a string for every color of the rainbow. Check out the Tennis Warehouse tennis string page to find a variety of strings in every color and type. Can you make your own rainbow of string colors? Here is mine:
Orange- Gamma Zo Tour 16
Yellow- Dunlop Synthetic S-Gut 17
Pink- Prince Lightning XX 16
Green- Prince Beast XP 17
Blue- Luxilon Big Banger ALU Power 16L
Purple- Weiss Canon 6 Star 16 (1.3)
Another easy and fun way to customize your racquet is with stencil ink. Tourna Racquet Logo Stencil Ink is the perfect solution to add a personal message or design to your racquet. Whether you add your initials, team logo, smiley face or lightening bolt, the stencil ink can add a quick special touch in red, blue, black or white. You can use it, too, as a fun way to unite a team to put the same message on all the players' racquets.
Try one or all four of these ideas for a look that is completely your own! Have fun with it!

|Pleasant Hill, CA
|High School:
|College Park High School
Major: Marine & Environmental Science (MES)
Why did you choose to come to the Coast Guard Academy? I love to sail and I love the water, so I figured that a sea going service with a great sailing team would be the perfect school for me. I also really like the idea of helping people and serving in a humanitarian service.
How long have you been sailing? How did you start sailing? I have been sailing my whole life. I started sailing before I even remember; all I have ever known is that sailing is something that my family is passionate about.
What is your favorite thing about the sailing team at Coast Guard? My favorite thing about the sailing team is the feeling that people are there for you and care about you. Everyone brings their own personality into the mix which creates an atmosphere that makes you excited for every weekend that you get to travel with them. I love the car rides to the sailing venues because we get to listen to good music and be ourselves; it's a nice break from the school week.
What other activities/positions/clubs are you involved with on campus? I am in the Women's Leadership Council.
What is the sailing achievement that you are most proud of? I am the most proud of qualifying and going to Singlehanded Nationals in Long Beach, CA this year. When I joined the sailing team I never expected that I would have qualified and have gotten the opportunity to represent the CGA at such a high level event. It made me proud of myself and where I go to school.
What are your future sailing plans and career goals after graduation? My future goals after I graduate are to always keep sailing, whether it be leisurely or competitively. I want to make sure that my kids are a part of such a unique sport.
Tell us something that your teammates would be surprised to know about you. The East Coast has actually grown on me...even though I hate to admit it.

Okay, to put a positive spin on this whole boss thing; he is doing this b/c he thinks you're such a wonderful paralegal and he can't bare the thought of losing you. You can't expect he would use those words right? I mean, look who we're talking about here. Him trying to convince you not to do the teaching thing is really just a compliment! Smile inside knowing that. =)

It is vital, m the first place, for the niainteiiance ol sound Orthodoxy. Without a knowledge of Hebrew, the large Orthodox group soon ceases to be. It is all very well to argue that under such circumstances the Orthodox communicants will then seek naturally to enter the ranks of Re¬ form Judaism. But tbe facts in the ca.'jc are .otherwise. WJiat aotiially happens is that the greater number lose all affilia¬ tion with the .synagogue and join forces with the glidless. In other words, the support of Hebrew knowledge makes for the continuation of a large branch of Jewish religious hfe. .Aiiyijue wlio has at heart at all an appreciation of Jewish religious values, or for that matter, the spirit of religion in our midst should, Gerinan e.'ciles, we learn that.a n(?w book [ therefore, lend his material aid in a per by .'Mfred Kerr is about to be published -in lirusHeds.. .It willbe called "pie Dik- lalur dcs Hausknechts"—which, if you kiunv your Gerinan. is a good line...

I have always felt, in the second place, that those who have acquired a know- r.ouis Sobol's varied parcer; Jedge of Hebrew, humble though it be ill tlieir youth, are the more likely to feel I sense of kiliship with the whole House of Israel as well as with the Synagogue. Of course, there are exceptions to this general statement. The knowledge of tlubrew, or rather tJie influence of this training, ¦strciig;thens Jewish sentiment and loyalties. We have today, and I think we will have for many generations to come, great need for the widespread existence-of a strong sense of Jewish fellow-feeling and responsibility. The siipimrt <if the Hebrew Schools means, therefore, an investment in Jewish co¬ operation and fellow-helpfulness. When a School so in<lisi)ciisahle and valuable as this is in dire inoneUry need, the time is inOst inopportune to raise tpustion or to quibble about some of the aspects of its philosophy. Personally, I do not agree with some elements in its lioint of view, but I ilo not think it is fail- to the central theme at this time to raise challenging (juestions. This as¬ pect of the matter I reserve for .some future coii.sideration, and I Impe by ctnn- muiiity agreenieiit such questions will, in the cinir.se uf events, be satisfactorily solved. The i»ai'i thought, which 1 wish to re-emphasizc, is the needfulness of this School in our city. It deserves oiir aid. To give it supiKirt is a duty which (k-volvts ui>oif us: we owe it to ourseU-es and to those who come after us to aid this worthy enlerinise, — (Signed) Rabbi Samuel M, (jup, Kabbi, Bryden koad Tt;ni|»le. E. J. Schanfarber ^iy judgment is that tiie lethargy'and laclc c>f interest in and towar'tl Jiidaisiii among the youn:.i;er, and even older mem¬ bers uf our faith, is due alnio.st entirely to lack of understanding, eilucation, and ignorance concerning the literature, his¬ tory and tradition of our |)eople. There are inaiiy who feelas the great lamented Louis Marshall, has so well said: "More iinpurtant even than hus|Htals, oriihaii asylums, home for tbe aged and all other l>hilaiithr<ipic institutions, however valu¬ able, religious education is the most vital need of any Jewish community. OrthO- (kix, ultra-Orthodox, Conservative and Reform Jews, every Jew, must support our Jewish institiitions of learning." 'Liie Coinmbus Hebrew School is the iiistitiition ;in Columbus which offers the possibilities of carrying on a program of Jeuisb education. Many of our pco|ilc, maybe out of sympathy with its curricti- luni, its location, or perhaps some of its metliod.s—be that'as it may, it fnniis the nucleus for the development of a proper program of Jewish education in Ihe City of Cuhimbns, and to the> end of its de- velo|)nient an<l its nu'demization every loyal jvw ill the cniniimiiity should lend it his support. , (Signed) E.

Gup uf the Bryden koad Temple lias endorsed it whole-heartedly declaring that a Talinnl Torah is just as important as a synagogue and that if properly conducted bectnnes a true bidwark for Judaism. "Jewish education," asserted Kabbi Gup, "is tiie paramount issue pf Jewish life iu America. If we want to train our youth in the path of Judaism, if we want to teach our children our history, our Bible, and aur IToly language, we mu.st establish and support Talmud Torahs conducted nn the mostmodern pedagogic methods." A Cardinal l*rinciple Rabbi -Mordecai Hirscb.sprung of the Agudath -Aihim Congregation, in his public endorsement of the niembership drive points out tliat the cardinal prin- ci])le of our Torah i.-; the inculcation of the sublime teachings handed down to us by our forebears "Those err greatly," .said Raiibi Hirsch¬ sprung, "who imagine that all that is asked of the Jew is to give an intellectual assent to soniu abstract proposition of the mind such as tbe Unit> of God. To be a Jew is to feel oneself a memljer of a great brotherhood in which the safety, tbe wel- 'fare, and the honor of all arc in the keep¬ ing of each. It is to stand firm against Icmptation anil corrupt example, from far and near; it h to malce^ sacrifices of comfort, pleasure, and convenience; to be content to suffer privation and contumely for one's faith and people; to'answer all detractors by a blameless life; to be to the front wherever men are suffering from want, ignorance or tyranny; it is to glory in your Heaven-directed history and to bear in mind that he who cares not for Israel's past will not do much worth remeiribcring for Israel's future.

Unless wc impress our boys and girls with the nobility of our race and the grandeur of Our religion and our culture, . their loyalty in later life will; be very weak indeed. .\ Jew who docs not pos¬ sess an understanding of Jewish values is a liability. Tbe ta.sk of the Columbus Hebrew Sciiool is not only to familiarize its pupils with the Ribic and the Hebrew language, but also to prepare them for leadership in Isrjtel. I have no, hesita¬ tion in declaring thai if we all work to¬ gether in a spirit of concord and har- niony. the present drive will go over in a big way and the Talmud Torah's future will be . safeguarded," eOncbuled Rabbi Greenwald.

"I am',.familiar with tbe program of- the Talmud Tnrab," said Mr. Schanfar¬ ber, "and know that it has done much in this community for the advancement of Jewish ideals and the promotion of Jew¬ ish'culture. It is helping to raise up a l)Ody of Jews familiar with their past and prepared to cope with their problems of the future. I am confident that our coniT nmnal life will grow richer socially, cul¬ turally and religiously if we advance tlie cause of Jewish education In Columbus.. The tendency nf tbe Cohiinbus Heiircw School is not only lo preserve our an¬ cestral faith but alrfo to make better men and better Jews."

Note: This documentation is preliminary and subject to change.
WorldWide Telescope is a viewer for spheres. As a viewer zooms in the spheres are of ever increasing size and resolution. Sometimes, for panoramas and all-sky surveys – WorldWide Telescope renders the inside of a sphere. Other times, for the surfaces of planets and moons, it renders the outside of a sphere. WorldWide Telescope does not model the irregular shape of the Earth usually referred to as an oblate spheroid. The east-west diameter of the earth is 7,926 miles (or 12,756 kilometers), whereas the north-south diameter is slightly shorter at 7,901 miles (or 12,715 kilometers). The program treats the Earth, and other planets and moons, as perfect spheres.
The classic problem with mapping is obtaining a useful 2D flat image of a round 3D surface. There are several well known projection systems, the most popular are briefly discussed here, though all distort areas of the surface to a degree. Distortions which are acceptable to a mapping system designed to show the populated areas of the Earth, are much less acceptable if the object is to display the topography. In WorldWide Telescope the projection of flat images onto a sphere is done using a method called TOAST projection -- a projection system that does not prioritize one area of a sphere over another.
This document provides background information on the theory and practice of TOAST projection. Equirectangular, Mercator and Gnomonic maps can be converted to the TOAST format, and are discussed as source projections.
The following projections can be used as the source for a conversion to the TOAST format:
With Equirectangular coordinates, every pixel represents the same number of degrees of latitude and longitude for planets, and degrees for Right Ascension (RA) and Declination (Dec) for sky surveys. Equirectangular projection is by far the most common system used to represent earth maps, such as the NASA Blue Marble map shown below. The utility of this projection is greatly assisted by the simple fact that very few people live near the poles, where the projection becomes problematic, in particular all the points along the top of an equirectangular projection represent only one point in 3D space, namely the North Pole. And of course there is a similar singularity for the lower edge of the map and the South Pole.
|This composite image of Earth was taken in January 2004. Credit: NASA, Visible Earth.
The wider problem with equirectangular projections is that the relative sizes of objects (land masses in the map above) are substantially incorrect. An equirectangular image that covers the entire sphere will have a 2 x 1 aspect ratio, so it is two times as wide as it is high (a full circumference east-west, half a circumference north-south).
Unlike equirectangular projection, Mercator projection preserves angles, so is useful in marine navigation, but at the expense of distorting the relative sizes of land masses. The distortion of sizes is even greater than in equirectangular projection, with Greenland appearing about the same size as Africa in Mercator projection, about half the size in equirectangular projection, and about one fourteenth the size on a globe.
Mercator projection is a specific example of cylindrical projection -- where horizontal lines are preserved in the mapping.
A flat map is achieved by projecting from the center of the sphere, perpendicularly through the surface of the sphere, to a tangent plane. Unlike the previous two projection systems gnomonic only enables less than half of the sphere to be projected onto one map. Also known as tangential projection, gnomonic projection displays all great circles as straight lines, so for example, the meridians and equator appear as straight lines on the map.
TOAST (Tessellated Octahedral Adaptive Subdivision Transform) is an extension of as system of representing a sphere as a hierarchical triangular mesh. The extension takes the mesh and flattens it into a square for use as a texture.
A Hierarchical Triangular Mesh (HTM) is a representation of a sphere proposed by astronomers in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. It first models the sphere as an octahedron, then recursively subdivides each triangular face until the sphere is closely approximated by a highly tessellated polyhedron. WorldWide Telescope extends the concepts of HTM, where the subdivided octahedron is folded out flat into a square.
The recursive subdivision of tiles using an HTM system is shown in the following images. Basically, a sphere is modeled as a polygon (starting with an octahedron) that has lots of triangular faces. If the octahedron was folded flat, the North pole would be at the center, the south pole at each of the four corners, and the equator would form a diamond within the square.
The following images shows the first three levels of HTM subdivision. As each side is subdivided the new point would be on the surface of a perfect sphere. Even after just three iterations the polyhedron is getting close to approximating a sphere.

When the equirectangular earth map is converted to TOAST, it looks like the following:
The unusual warping in this image can be interpreted. The North Pole is in the center, and Antarctica split into four at the corners. In fact, all four corners meet at exactly the same point – the South Pole. The Equator follows a square whose corners are the middle of each side (shown by a red line in the image). The wrap-around in TOAST is shown in the following image. Each point on the side of the TOAST square, for example, A, B, C and D, will be adjacent to the points A`, B`, C` and D` when the projection is mapped onto a sphere.
The following images show the process a little simpler. The 1000 x 500 pixel equirectangular image on the left produces the TOAST projection on the right, and if the collection file produced by the Sphere Toaster tool (with the output set to Planet) is loaded into WorldWide Telescope, the planet in the lower image will appear:
Right ascension and longitude values in TOAST depend on whether the projection is being used to represent the inside or outside of a sphere. Notice that the degrees of RA/longitude are on the opposite sides in the following two diagrams.
|The inside of a sphere
|The outside of a sphere
The resolution of a TOAST image is not even across the square, for example the following three lines all represent one circumference of the sphere, yet all three lines are of different lengths (2L * sqrt(2), 2L, and L * sqrt(2) respectively, where L is the length of one side of the square). This difference in resolution across a single image is still far less than that of equirectangular projection.
The TOAST representation of a sphere can be a rather large square, so it is stored as an image pyramid. In this image pyramid, each lower level contains a higher-resolution version of the total image. One level down has twice the width and twice the height (so four times a greater area) of the image in the previous level. At each level, the image is tiled into 256 x 256 images. The purpose of having image pyramids is that as the viewer gets closer and closer to an object (a galaxy, for example) the rendering of that object becomes progressively more detailed. Alternatively as the viewer moves away from an object, less and less computing power is needed to render the image as lower levels of the image pyramid are used. The first level is a single 256 by 256 tile, which is obviously used when the view is at its maximum (perhaps looking at the stars from the Earth). At level 7, the default deepest level, there are 128 x 128 (16384) tiles.

Style # 214689
Paradise Wedge Flip Flops is rated out of 5 by 1.
Rated 3 out of 5 by TruFit from Cute but not comfy! I absolutely loved my last pair of Bebe flip flops and wore them until they died. I was excited to order these and thought they were super cute when I received them. However, the insertion of the straps is placed beneath your feet, and the first night I wore them, my feet were rubbing like crazy on the straps. I had very achy feet by the end of the night, and if I had worn them for any longer, I probably would have had blisters on the bottom of my feet where the straps insert. I certainly hope they break in better, but I had to only give them 3 stars because my last experience with Bebe flip flops was so much better.

Out in force this year
Large and enthusiastic crowds greeted those who marched in the Memorial Day parades last week. The responses from the public in the parades we covered in three communities were better than it has been in years. That was nice to see and it is indicative of the support we have for our veterans, and the honor we bestow upon those who have made the ultimate sacrifice.

Montclair, NJ – Junior running back A.J. Scoppa (New Milford, NJ, New Milford) rushed for a career-high 169 yards and scored the game's lone touchdown while the Montclair State defense came up with big plays as the Red Hawks collected their first win of the season, blanking Morrisville State 7-0 in a New Jersey Athletic Conference game at Sprague Field on Saturday.
Junior safety Matt Mancino (Wall, NJ, Wall) intercepted two passes for MSU (1-2, 1-0 NJAC), which improved to 5-0 all-time against the Mustangs with their second shutout in the series.
Senior quarterback Mychael Hardamon (Roosevelt, NY / Roosevelt) totaled 153 yards of offense for Morrisville State, which fell to 0-3 in their conference opener.
Scoppa carried 34 times in the game and produced the game's lone score with 7:46 left in the opening quarter as he rambled in from six yards out.
Montclair State took possession at its own 37 yard line following a Morrisville punt. Scoppa ran for 16 yards on the first two played before Drew Cathey (East Rutherford, NJ, Becton Regional) connected with Bryan Ogden (Wayne, NJ, Wayne Hills) on nine-yard strike putting the ball at the Mustangs 38. Scoppa carried twice more before Cathey scramble 17 yards down to the Morrisville 14. Scoppa then finished off the drive with an eight-yard run followed by his six yard to cap an eight-play, 63 yard drive.7-0.
That turned out to be all the scoring MSU would need as the defense limited Morrisville to 193 total yards in the game, including 45 in the first half as the Mustangs saw five possession end in a punt while its deepest penetration was its own 43 yardline.
Meanwhile, the Red Hawks nearly added to the lead driving to the Morrisville 16 early in the second quarter. Montclair converted a fourth-down opportunity on a Scoppa run but the second time was not as fortunate as Cathey's pass went incomplete.
MSU led 7-0 at the half.
The second half produced immediately results for Morrisville as Hardamon connected with AJ Latta (Middletown, NY / Pine Bush) on a 49-yard pass play down to the MSU 28 that gave the Mustangs their first opportunity. But on the next play, Mancino ended that threat picking off Hardamon at the three as MSU maintained its 7-0 advantage.
That lead nearly grew on the next Morrisville possession as linebacker Adnan Sakiri (Ramsey, NJ, Ramsey) intercepted an Hardamon pass and returned it 42 yards for a touchdown a penalty on the runback nullified the score and instead of a 14-0 lead, Montclair State had to settle for possession which later ended in a punt.
Hardamon connected again with Latta on a 49-yard throw the next time Morrisville got the ball gave the Mustangs the ball at the MSU 27-yard line. But a holding penalty on second down proved costly as a field goal attempt was blocked by Montclair's Kevin Barnes (Long Valley, NJ, West Morris Central) ending what turned out to be Morrisville's last scoring opportunity.
In the fourth quarter, Mancino intercepted his second pass downfield to end one Morrisville drive. Still the Mustangs were only down a score and then caught a huge break. On a punt attempt, Darry Albright (Long Beach, NY / Long Beach) bobbled a low snap however the 6-0, 270-pound punter rumbled four yards for the first down at the 47 yard line. But Morrisville couldn't take advantage going three-and-out.
On its final possession, Morrisville moved the ball out to its own 45 yard line with three minutes left however back-to-back sacks by Matt Trivigno (Denville, NJ, Morris Knolls) and Joe Koonce (Cliffside Park, NJ, Cliffside Park), respectively for a punt and the Red Hawks managed to run out the clock from there.
Linebacker Dan Avento (Montvale, NJ, Pascack Hills) had eight tackles for Montclair State, which got six tackles fromMarc Aspinwall (Little Ferry, NJ, Ridgefield Park). Defensive lineman Rob Allen (Perth Amboy, NJ, Old Bridge) had two tackles and knocked down two passes while cornerback Clario Sampson (Newark, NJ, Orange) recorded a pair of pass breakups.Ogden had four catches for the Red Hawks while freshman returner Pat Caggiano (Cedar Grove, NJ, Cedar Grove) averaged 14 yards per return and also had a 44-yard kickoff return.
Austin Henchey (Unadilla, NY / Unatego) rushed for 30 yards for Morrisville while Latta finished the day with three receptions for 104 yards. Jeremy Stewart (Moravia, NY / Moravia) led all tacklers in the game with 10 while Freddie Gaetan (Bronx, NY / John F. Kennedy) had eight tackles. Travis French (Newark Valley, NY / Newark Valley) added seven tackles, including for four losses with Alrbight getting seven stops, 3 ½ for losses.
Both teams continue conference play Saturday, September 22. Montclair State makes the short trek to Wayne, NJ for a 12:00 pm kickoff against local rival William Paterson. Morrisville State is at home taking on Cortland at 7:00 pm.

This manga is suppose to be for the fans who wanted the secondary character to win in Suzuka, but never did.
If we take that in the literal sense, it could very well mean Seo Kouji is going to have Asuka as the final girl. However, Asuka (technically) isn't the second girl to appear in this manga, she is the third. Arguably, the second one is Nanami (I say arguably because its hard to determine whether it was Nanami or Eba who came first). If Eba is put in the spotlight as the second girl, then Seo could really have meant that Eba is going to be the final girl.

CRESTVIEW � Northwood Elementary School principal Donna Goode will usher in a new arts-based curriculum and reverse her predecessor�s decision about yearbook orders.
CRESTVIEW � Northwood Elementary School principal Donna Goode will usher in a new arts-based curriculum and reverse her predecessor�s decision about yearbook orders.
The Northwood Arts and Science Academy � a science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics-based curriculum � will enhance the school�s current STEM curriculum, administrators said.
"There is a great marriage between what (students) are learning academically and how they can express it through art," said acting assistant principal Barry Blackburn.
The academy can accommodate a dance studio with a band room and gymnasium for performances, but the program will cater to students with general interests, she said.
The principal � who plans to add science and technology-based courses in the next few years � is in the process of hiring two teachers for the art curriculum, pending the Okaloosa County School Board�s approval. The school has funding for teachers, but needs a portage stage, sound system, costumes and prop donations for the drama program, Goode said.
Yearbooks returning
Last year, the school was Crestview�s lone elementary school without yearbooks; former principal Jacqueline Craig said yearbooks were cost prohibitive for the school and the parents.
However, Goode plans to bring them back in 2014.
"There is no reason why we can't have one," she said. "I can't address what happened in the past; it was just a different administrative decision."
Goode was principal for 14 years at Owens Cross Roads Elementary School in Alabama, which she said broke even with yearbook costs.
She asks that community volunteers, including parents, help put the yearbooks together.

A BlankTV Premiere Presentation:
The Judas Bunch - "Hey Bartender"
Artist Bio:
When I say Sweden, what comes to your mind? If you pictured a female fronted honky-tonk punk band with an accordion and a banjo, then you win! The Judas Bunch from Stockholm, Sweden, play what they like to call honkytonk punk – fast, melodious, energetic punk rock with bad ass banjo riffs. So far they have released three records, Betrayers Brew (2009), Backstabbers Ball (2010) and Traitorville Fair (2012). They play a lot in Sweden and have been on two tours on the U.S. West Coast so I guess you can call them a hard working band.
About The Video:
The video was recorded at the bar where the singer Rebecka works. It's also the bar where you most likely will find the rest of the band drinking.
>> Get music by The Judas Bunch from iTunes, Amazon, Interpunk, and Spotify NOW! <<

NEW YORK, Nov. 30 (UPI) -- A 76-year-old woman knocked down in an apparently random attack in Brooklyn may have been a victim of the "knockout game," New York police said.
Yvonne Small was injured Friday when someone came up on her from behind in East New York and hit her, the New York Daily News reported. She was treated at Brookdale Hospital but did not require an overnight stay.
No arrest had been made, police said.
Police said at least 10 apparent "knockout" attacks have occurred in the city recently, with reports from elsewhere in the country, including three fatal assaults. Young people supposedly assault strangers with the goal being to make the victim unconscious.
While Small was being attacked, a community activist was holding a rally in East New York against the knockout game.
"We're not going to tolerate anybody striking, hitting or putting their hands on our women in any shape or fashion," Tony Herbert, president of the National Action Network Brooklyn chapter, said.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – Julie Soriero, MIT Director of Athletics, announced the departures of Ted Benford and Andy Hilton from the lightweight men's rowing program on Monday. Benford, who served as the Engineers' head coach for the past five seasons, will be returning to Northeastern University as the associate head coach. Following a three-year stint at MIT, Hilton will be going back to Dartmouth College, his alma mater, as the assistant heavyweight coach.
During their tenure, Benford and Hilton's crews continuously improved resulting in the closest racing the program had experienced in years. The Cardinal and Gray captured top-10 national seedings in 2008 and 2009 while the freshman lightweight squad placed 10th at the 2008 EARC Sprints Championship.
"Through their hard work, technical knowledge and fine character, Ted and Andy built MIT's lightweight men's crew into a cohesive and successful team," said Tony Kilbridge, MIT's Director of Rowing. "Everyone associated with the program will miss them and wishes them the best."

The key to changing web server identity is consistency. The trouble we went through to change the web server make may be useless if we leave the default Apache content around. The removal of the default content is equivalent to changing one's clothes when going undercover. This action may be useful even if we do not intend to change the server identity. Applications often come with sample programs and, as a general rule, it is a good practice to remove them from production systems; they may contain vulnerabilities that may be exploited later.
Most of the default content is out of reach of the public, since we have built our Apache from scratch, changed the root folder of the web site, and did not include aliases for the manual and the icons. Just to be thorough, erase the following directories:
- /usr/local/apache/cgi-bin
- /usr/local/apache/htdocs
- /usr/local/apache/manual (Apache 2 only)
You will probably want to keep the original /usr/local/apache/logs directory though the logs are stored in /var/www/logs. This is because many modules use the logs/ folder relative to the Apache installation directory to create temporary files. These modules usually offer directives to change the path they use, but some may not. The only remaining bit of default content is the error pages Apache displays when errors occur. These pages can be replaced with the help of the ErrorDocument directive. Using one directive per error code, replace the error pages for all HTTP error codes. (A list of HTTP codes is given in Chapter 8; it can also be found at http://www.w3.org/ Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html.)
ErrorDocument 401 /error/401.htm l
ErrorDocument 403 /error/403.html
ErrorDocument 404 /error/404.html
ErrorDocument 500 /error/500.html
An alternative to creating dozens of static pages is to create one intelligent script that retrieves the error code from Apache and uses it to display the appropriate message. A small bit of programming is required in this case, following guidance from the Apache documentation at http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/custom-error.html.
{mospagebreak title=Putting Apache in Jail}
Even the most secure software installations get broken into. Sometimes, this is because you get the attention of a skilled and persistent attacker. Sometimes, a new vulnerability is discovered, and an attacker uses it before the server is patched. Once an intruder gets in, his next step is to look for local vulnerability and become superuser. When this happens, the whole system becomes contaminated, and the only solution is to reinstall everything.
Our aim is to contain the intrusion to just a part of the system, and we do this with the help of the chroot(2) system call. This system call allows restrictions to be put on a process, limiting its access to the filesystem. It works by choosing a folder to become the new filesystem root. Once the system call is executed, a process cannot go back (in most cases, and provided the jail was properly constructed).
The root user can almost always break out of jail. The key to building an escape-proof jail environment is not to allow any root processes to exist inside the jail. You must also not have a process outside jail run ning as the same user as a process inside jail. Under some circumstances, an attacker may jump from one process to another and break out of jail. That's one of the reasons why I have insisted on having a separate account for Apache.
The term chroot is often interchangeably used with the term jail. The term can be used as a verb and noun. If you say Apache is chrooted, for example, you are saying that Apache was put in jail, typically via use of the chroot binary or the chroot(2) system call. On Linux systems, the meanings of chroot and jail are close enough. BSD systems have a separate jail() call, which implements additional security mechanisms. For more details about the jail() call, see the following: http://docs.freebsd.org/44doc/papers/jail/jail.html.
Incorporating the jail mechanism (using either chroot(2) or jail() ) into your web server defense gives the following advantages:
If the intruder breaks in through the server, he will only be able to access files in the restricted file system. Unable to touch other files, he will be unable to alter them or harm the data in any way.
No shell
Most exploits need shells (mostly /bin/sh) to be fully operative. While you cannot remove a shell from the operating system, you can remove it from a jail environment.
Limited tool availability
Once inside, the intruder will need tools to progress further. To begin with, he will need a shell. If a shell isn't available he will need to find ways to bring one in from the inside. The intruder will also need a compiler. Many black hat tools are not used as binaries. Instead, these tools are uploaded to the server in source and compiled on the spot. Even many automated attack tools compile programs. The best example is the Apache Slapper Worm (see the sidebar "Apache Slapper Worm").
Absence of suid root binaries
Getting out of a jail is possible if you have the privileges of the root user. Since all the effort we put into the construction of a jail would be meaningless if we allowed suid root binaries, make sure you do not put such files into the jail.
The chroot(2) call was not originally designed as a security measure. Its use for security is essentially a hack, and will be replaced as the server virtualization technologies advance. For Linux, that will happen once these efforts become part of a mainstream kernel. Though server virtualization falls out of the scope of this book, some information on this subject is provided in Chapter 9.
The following sections describe various approaches to putting Apache in jail. First, an example demonstrating use of the original chroot binary to put a process in jail is shown. That example demonstrates the issues that typically come up when attempting to put a process in jail and briefly documents tools that are useful for solving these issues. Next, the steps required for creating a jail and putting Apache in it using chroot are shown. This is followed by the simpler chroot(2) approach, which can be used in some limited situations. Finally, the use of mod_security or mod_chroot to chroot Apache is presented.
Apache Slapper Worm
The Apache Slapper Worm (http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-2002-27.html) is arguably the worst thing to happen to the Apache web server as far as security goes. It uses vulnerabilities in the OpenSSL subsystem (http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-2002-23. html) to break into a system running Apache. It proceeds to infect other systems and calls back home to become a part of a distributed denial of service (DDoS) network. Some variants install a backdoor, listening on a TCP/IP port. The worm only works on Linux systems running on the Intel architecture.
The behavior of this worm serves as an excellent case study and a good example of how some of the techniques we used to secure Apache help in real life.
- The worm uses a probing request to determine the web server make and version from the Server response header and attacks the servers it knows are vulnerable. A fake server signature would, therefore, protect from this worm. Subsequent worm mutations stopped using the probing request, but the initial version did and this still serves as an important point.
- If a vulnerable system is found, the worm source code is uploaded (to /tmp) and compiled. The worm would not spread to a system without a compiler, to a system where the server is running from a jail, or to a system where code execution in the /tmp directory is disabled (for example, by mounting the partition with a noexec flag).
Proper firewall configuration, as discussed in Chapter 9, would stop the worm from spreading and would prevent the attacker from going into the server through the backdoor.
{mospagebreak title=Tools of the chroot Trade}
Before you venture into chroot land you must become aware of several tools and techniques you will need to make things work and to troubleshoot problems when they appear. The general problem you will encounter is that programs do not expect to be run without full access to the filesystem. They assume certain files are present and they do not check error codes of system calls they assume always succeed. As a result, these programs fail without an error message. You must use diagnostic tools such as those described below to find out what has gone wrong.
Sample use of the chroot binary
The chroot binary takes a path to the new filesystem root as its first parameter and takes the name of another binary to run in that jail as its second parameter. First, we need to create the folder that will become the jail:
# mkdir /chroot
Then, we specify the jail (as the chroot first parameter) and try (and fail) to run a shell in the jail:
# chroot /chroot /bin/bash
chroot: /bin/bash: No such file or directory
The above command fails because chroot corners itself into the jail as its first action and attempts to run /bin/bash second. Since the jail contains nothing, chroot com plains about being unable to find the binary to execute. Copy the shell into the jail and try (and fail) again:
# mkdir /chroot/bin
# cp /bin/bash /chroot/bin/bash
# chroot /chroot /bin/bash
chroot: /bin/bash: No such file or directory
How can that be when you just copied the shell into jail?
# ls -al /chroot/bin/bash
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 605504 Mar 28 14:23 /chroot/bin/bash
The bash shell is compiled to depend on several shared libraries, and the Linux ker nel prints out the same error message whether the problem is that the target file does not exist or that any of the shared libraries it depends on do not exist. To move beyond this problem, we need the tool from the next section.
Using ldd to discover dependencies
The ldd tool—available by default on all Unix systems—prints shared library dependencies for a given binary. Most binaries are compiled to depend on shared libraries and will not work without them. Using ldd with the name of a binary (or another shared library) as the first parameter gives a list of files that must accompany the binary to work. Trying ldd on /bin/bash gives the following output:
# ldd /bin/bash
libtermcap.so.2 => /lib/libtermcap.so.2 (0x0088a000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x0060b000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0x004ac000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x00494000)
Therefore, bash depends on four shared libraries. Create copies of these files in jail:
# mkdir /chroot/lib
# cp /lib/libtermcap.so.2 /chroot/lib
# cp /lib/libdl.so.2 /chroot/lib
# cp /lib/tls/libc.so.6 /chroot/lib
# cp /lib/ld-linux.so.2 /chroot/lib
The jailed execution of a bash shell will finally succeed:
# chroot /chroot /bin/bash
You are rewarded with a working shell prompt. You will not be able to do much from it though. Though the shell works, none of the binaries you would normally use are available inside (ls, for example). You can only use the built-in shell com mands, as can be seen in this example:
bash-2.05b# pwd
bash-2.05b# echo /*
/bin /lib
bash-2.05b# echo /bin/*
bash-2.05b# echo /lib/*
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 /lib/libc.so.6
/lib/libdl.so.2 /lib/libtermcap.so.2
As the previous example demonstrates, from a jailed shell you can access a few files you explicitly copied into the jail and nothing else.
{mospagebreak title=Using strace to see inside processes}
The strace tool (truss on systems other than Linux) intercepts and records system calls that are made by a process. It gives much insight into how programs work, without access to the source code. Using chroot and ldd, you will be able to get programs to run inside jail, but you will need strace to figure out why they fail when they fail without an error message, or if the error message does not indicate the real cause of the problem. For that reason, you will often need strace inside the jail itself. (Remember to remove it afterwards.)
Using strace you will find that many innocent looking binaries do a lot of work before they start. If you want to experiment, I suggest you write a simple program such as this one:
#include <stdarg.h>
#include <stdarg.h>
int main(void) {
puts("Hello world!");
Compile it once with a shared system support and once without it:
# gcc helloworld.c -o helloworld.shared
# gcc helloworld.c -o helloworld.static -static
Using strace on the static version gives the following output:
# strace ./helloworld.static
execve("./helloworld.static", ["./helloworld.static"], [/* 22 vars */]) = 0
uname({sys="Linux", node="ben", …}) = 0
brk(0) = 0x958b000
brk(0x95ac000) = 0x95ac000
fstat64(1, {st_mode=S_IFCHR|0620, st_rdev=makedev(136, 0), …}) = 0
old_mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE,
MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0xbf51a000
write(1, "Hello world!n", 13Hello world!
) = 13
munmap(0xbf51a000, 4096) = 0
The strace output is ugly. Each line in the output represents a system call made from the process. It is not important at the moment what each line contains. Jailed bina ries most often fail because they cannot open a file. If that happens, one of the lines near the end of the output will show the name of the file the binary attempted to access:
open("/usr/share/locale/locale.alias", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOEN T
(No such file or directory)
As an exercise, use strace on the dynamically compiled version of the program and compare the two outputs. You will see how many shared libraries are accessed even from a small program such as this one.
Please check back next week for the conclusion to this article.

March 1, 2006
NORTON, Mass. - Dawn Gerken was named NEWMAC Women's Swimming Coach of the Year after leading MIT to a second-place finish at the 2006 NEWMAC Championships. National power Springfield College won an unprecedented sixth consecutive team crown with Wellesley College finishing 140 points behind the Engineers for third in the standings. During the three-day competition, the Engineers set 10 Institute records and qualified four swimmers and a diver for the NCAA Championships.
Gerken led the Engineers to a regular-season record of 9-2, including a 4-1 slate in the conference one year after pacing MIT to an 8-2 ledger. Under Gerken's tutelage, the Engineers have finished second overall at the conference championship every season, while she has led both the men's and women's teams to 15 All-America honors. This marks the second time in three years that the women's program will send five student-athletes to the NCAA Division III Championships.
