Will streaming kill physical media?
Chris Gould takes a look at the current state of streaming vs physical media...
Firstly it's fair to say that I'm not completely without bias in this argument. I've written for DVDActive for over ten years and I've seen DVD grow from its relative infancy to evolve into the dominant home entertainment format. I've also witnessed the emergence of Blu-ray, which has since gone on to become the format of choice for hardcore film enthusiasts and technical geeks. Both of these are physical formats and I love them. However, I also use a streaming service (Netflix) for the convenience of a quick fix, so I'm not some dinosaur completely opposed to on-demand services.
The convenience angle seems to be one of the biggest arguments made in favour of streaming services, so let's begin there. While my exposure to streaming is limited to the aforementioned Netflix I must agree that it's nice to be able to turn on the PC, PS3, BD player or tablet and browse a selection of movies and TV shows. There's no waiting around for the postman, nor any trips to the rental store to contend with. If I decide I want to watch something at two o'clock in the morning I simply fire up one of my devices and away I go. By comparison physical media is a positive chore. If I want to watch something new I have to plan ahead and pray that the postal system has its act together this week. If I want to watch something new in the early hours of the morning it means getting of off my lazy behind and driving miles to the nearest twenty-four hour supermarket and hoping they have something suitable in store, which obviously isn't an ideal situation. Another convenient feature of streaming is that it doesn't require any form of storage at the end-user's home. You can simply select your film, watch it, and then move on to the next one without the need to convert the spare bedroom into a display area for your collection of optical media. As someone whose house is stuffed to the gills with DVDs, Blu-rays and games, I can see why this is an attractive option for many. No, I don't think anyone can seriously make a convincing argument for physical media's convenience over streaming services, but what about selection?
Streaming services are great for a quick fix when you don't particularly mind what you watch, but what if you have a strong desire to see the latest movies or some obscure foreign film? While Netflix actually has a surprisingly good selection of foreign and obscure films they don't rotate all that often and are of course just a tiny sample of what is available. Recently I was astounded to find Galaxy of Terror in HD on Netflix, and in the past I've even watched the 'classics' Robot Jox and Buckaroo Banzai, along with some fairly recent Japanese and Korean features. However, if I wanted to watch something like Mr. Vampire or The Beastmaster I'd be out of luck. Even big name titles such as the Star Wars and Harry Potter sagas, and classics such as The Godfather and Jaws are conspicuous by their absence from the streaming services. From looking at the Lovefilm catalogue it appears as if they might offer some films that Netflix do not (and vice versa), but even if you were to sign up to multiple streaming services you still wouldn't have access to everything that physical media offers. Of course this could change in the future if the market shifts firmly towards the digital distribution model, but at the moment disc-based distribution has the edge in this area.
So you have your content, but what about the quality of said content? As things stand physical media is, for my money, head and shoulders above of streaming. From what I've been able to learn, Netflix still has the edge in the quality stakes over its main rival (Lovefilm) when it comes to streaming. Lovefilm's site claims that 1080p streams are currently only available on PCs, with other devices only supporting 720p. The bandwidth required for these streams is also higher than Netflix (but more on this point later). Netflix has recently overhauled its service to offer Super HD versions of some titles, but this is ISP dependant and many people are still left with the regular 1080p streams or below (although it seems frivolous to complain about such things). Although the quality of these streams is impressive compared to standard definition and even broadcast HD, it's simply not up to the standard of the average Blu-ray equivalent.
On this page I've included a number of comparisons between Netflix HD streams and the Blu-ray equivalents. Now I'll admit that the Netflix streams are actually quite impressive, especially if you're a casual viewer who views entertainment as a disposable commodity. As a film and home-theatre enthusiast I sometimes forget that not everyone shares my obsession and as such aren't really concerned with things like grain, colour reproduction, or artefacts. However, for people like me the advantages of physical media are obvious. In each of the comparisons on the page the Blu-ray version of the film is sharper and more detailed, with superior colour and contrast for a 'film-like' appearance. Then of course there's the audio. Some of Netflix's streams offer Dolby Digital Plus 5.1 audio, which is good, but still not as good as the higher-fidelity lossless audio found on Blu-ray. Additionally, a large number of Blu-ray discs are now releasing with 7.1 audio, something that streaming services do not yet offer. Extras are another plus for physical media, especially those that offer genuine insight into the filmmaking process. It seems to me that, while streaming isn't a million miles behind, if you want the very best quality you'll have to stick with those shiny Blu-ray discs until such time as the on-demand services catch up. Of course as the popularity of MP3 has shown sometimes quality just isn't the overriding factor in people's purchasing decisions.
This leads me neatly on to my next point, that of on-demand content delivery. For me this is the single biggest obstacle facing the mass-adoption of streaming services. I'm lucky enough to live in an area that offers cable broadband at speeds of up to 100Mbps (soon to be 120Mbps), but even I suffer from the dreaded buffering and drop-outs during periods of high network utilisation. It's all well and good advertising these high speed services, but bandwidth is finite and at peak times even the fastest networks can buckle under the strain. Of course this high speed doesn't come cheap either, with my service weighing in at £35 per month. Sure you can opt for a lower tier service, but these usually come with more restrictive bandwidth caps and when you consider that streaming an HD film can consume 2-3GB of data every hour it's not hard to see how you could go over your allowance. In some cases this only leads to a temporary reduction in speed - a minor annoyance to be sure - but in others it could lead to additional charges or the loss of Internet entirely. As more and more people sign up to streaming services the strain on the infrastructure is only going to get worse, so some serious investment is needed before everyone will be able to watch on-demand content at anything approaching Blu-ray quality. In many areas (particularly rural) people's only option is still ADSL down old copper phone lines, which simply doesn't offer anything like the bandwidth for current services let alone future developments. 4K is apparently the next 'big thing' and that will require even more bandwidth than today's HD content. No, the UK is still a long way from having the sort of broadband infrastructure that can support streaming as the number one delivery method, and I suspect this is true of many countries.
As an adjunct of the above point, I work in IT and in my experience the majority of people are scared to death of technology. Granted younger people are more conversant in such things, but I'm frequently amazed by how many twenty-somethings exhibit almost no aptitude for even the most basic of technical tasks (and don't even get me started on the 'we should go back to pen and pencil' brigade). When such individuals are ill at ease with concepts like inserting a disc into a drive - something that confuses people more often than you'd think - it's hard to imagine them coping when faced with the prospect of navigating an intangible library of movies on an 'alien' device. Of course these people were probably just as scared of VHS and DVD and will eventually learn the necessary skills, but I find suggestions that we are currently living in an age when everyone is comfortable streaming or downloading their entertainment highly dubious.
Another factor that is often overlooked is people's innate desire to hold something tangible in their hands; to build a library of films. Even as someone who owns what others might call an excessive number of DVDs and Blu-rays the current Steelbook craze bemuses me, but there are obviously people out there who are keen collectors and as such are creating the demand for that particular market. There's definitely a psychological component to the accumulation of material goods, and I always get more of a rush from receiving a Blu-ray in the post than I do from streaming or downloading a film. To me there's more inherent worth in the physical object than there is in the digital equivalent, which feels largely disposable by comparison. Of course I'm the sort of person who used to buy vinyl instead of CDs...
There are no doubt other arguments to consider on both sides, but if I went into that much depth this article would never end. So, to avoid droning on incessantly, here's a brief summary of the pros and cons of both delivery systems:
Streaming pros:
- Convenience
- Relatively low cost
- Acceptable quality (not the best, but 'good is good enough' for some)
Streaming cons:
- Quality inferior to physical media
- Heavily reliant on broadband availability and performance
- Use requires 'retraining'
- Limited selection
Physical media pros:
- Offers the best quality
- People like to own something tangible (collectors)
- Not reliant on broadband speed, bandwidth or continuity
Physical media cons:
- Require physical storage space
- Can break/otherwise corrupt
- Higher costs
- Some hardware compatibility issues
Again I'd like to emphasis that this is how I see the current state of streaming vs physical media. Your views and opinions could differ wildly from mine depending on your usage habits and preferences and ultimately this is what will drive the market. If enough people chose the convenience of streaming over the technical superiority of physical media that is where the industry will go. Of course the upshot could well be that such a move will force content makers to provide better quality streaming services that match, or even exceed the quality currently afforded by Blu-ray. So to answer the question posed by the title of this article, yes, streaming may eventually 'kill' mass-market physical media. However, I believe we're a long way off from that yet and even if it does come to pass there will still be a market for physical media of some sort, even if it is relatively small. Perhaps we'll end up with something akin to the vinyl market today. What do you think?

Donald L. Taffner
Distributor brought British TV shows to U.S.
Donald L. Taffner, 80, an independent television distributor and producer who adapted and delivered "The Benny Hill Show" and other British comedy programs for U.S. broadcasts, died Tuesday after a short stay at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City, according to publicist Henri Bollinger.
A dealmaker and former William Morris agent, Taffner founded his own company in 1963 to negotiate international television rights. One of his biggest successes was "The Benny Hill Show," the risque and politically incorrect British sitcom that the businessman sold to small independent local channels in the United States in the late 1970s.
He also adapted the British sitcom "Man About the House" into an American version, "Three's Company," starring John Ritter, Joyce DeWitt and Suzanne Somers, and he turned "Keep It in the Family" into "Too Close for Comfort" for American audiences. Taffner also imported John Mortimer's British drama "Rumpole of the Bailey" to U.S. television.
"Two hundred episodes of one show is boredom. Now deals, that's the creative part," Taffner told the Guardian newspaper of London in 1995.
Born Nov. 29, 1930, in Brooklyn, Taffner grew up working in his father's candy store. After attending what is now St. John's University, he got a job in the mail room at the William Morris Agency in 1952 and became an agent handling international negotiations.
Taffner and his wife, Eleanor Bolta, whom he married in 1961, were major collectors of furniture and other work by the Scottish architect and designer Charles Rennie Mackintosh. She died in 2010. They had a daughter, Karen, and a son, Don Jr., who now runs the company.
In 1986 Taffner received an International Emmy and Founders Award for his efforts to bring foreign shows to the U.S. market.
Wardell Quezergue
New Orleans composer, arranger, bandleader
Wardell Quezergue, 81, a New Orleans composer, arranger, bandleader, producer and teacher who arranged "Chapel of Love" for the Dixie Cups and was dubbed the "Creole Beethoven" by fellow musician Allen Toussaint, died Tuesday at East Jefferson General Hospital in Metairie, La. The cause was congestive heart failure, his family said.
FOR THE RECORD: A previous version of this obituary incorrectly reported that "Mr. Big Stuff" and "Groove Me" were recorded on the same day in 1961. They were recorded in 1970.
"What a mark he made. In fact, what several marks he made," Toussaint said. "He was just a magnificent man in every way. He was a superb musician and bandleader. He always inspired the best out of people who were playing with him."
Hits arranged by Quezergue include "Iko Iko" for the Dixie Cups, "Big Chief" for Professor Longhair, "Mr. Big Stuff" for Jean Knight and "Groove Me" for King Floyd — the last two recorded the same day in 1970 at Quezergue's Malaco Records in Jackson, Miss.
Quezergue also worked with artists as diverse as B.B. King, the Meters, Paul Simon, Stevie Wonder, Willie Nelson and the Dameans — a quintet of New Orleans priests whose folky liturgical songs were popular after the Vatican decided the Mass should be in local languages rather than Latin.
Quezergue lost his house and his collection of musical scores to Hurricane Katrina in 2005, and his sight to diabetes in about 2003.
A New Orleans native, Quezergue left high school in his junior year and joined the Army, serving during the Korean War, then returned to Louisiana.
Eve Brent, 81, a starlet who found enduring fame after becoming the 19th actress cast as Jane in the string of Tarzan adventure movies, died Aug. 27 at Pacifica Hospital of the Valley in Sun Valley. Her representative at the CESD Talent Agency confirmed her death. Born Jean Ann Lewis on Sept. 11, 1929, in Texas, she changed her name for professional reasons in 1957. A year later, she appeared opposite Gordon Scott in "Tarzan and the Trappers" and "Tarzan's Fight for Life." She went on to a successful career as a character actress in episodic television and in movies, including "The Barefoot Executive," "The Green Mile" and "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button."

(PITTSBURGH, PA) OCTOBER 28, 2013 – The Childhood Apraxia of Speech Association of North America (CASANA) is accepting applications for its 2014 Childhood Apraxia of Speech (CAS) Intensive Training Institute to be held July 30, 2014 – August 3, 2014 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania at Duquesne University's Department of Speech-Language Pathology. This intensive training experience is intended to provide North American-based speech-language pathologists, who already have significant experience with CAS, an opportunity to become "master" clinicians who can serve as local/regional experts and potential mentors for other clinicians.
"We are so excited to be able to offer this intensive training experience again this year for qualified SLP's who have significant experience in the field of Childhood Apraxia of Speech and are ready to take those the next steps. While the selection process is rigorous, graduates of this program have been able to serve as regional experts for families seeking local professionals to evaluate and treat their children with CAS and mentors for other clinicians interested in CAS," says Kathy Hennessy, CASANA's Director of Education.
The ideal candidate for the intensive training – often called "Apraxia Bootcamp" – has:
- provided treatment to numerous children with this diagnosis,
- feels reasonably successful with them,
- routinely attends training to improve their skills with this population, and
- is committed to developing high level clinical thinking skills for use in diagnosis and treatment with children who have CAS
CASANA initiated the Childhood Apraxia of Speech Intensive Training Institute in 2011 as an effort to expand high-level, advanced clinical expertise throughout the United States and Canada for the population of children affected by CAS, a population that is noted for being complex to both diagnose and treat. A highly competitive program, the Institute accepts only 20 candidates in the program.
Accepted applicants pay for room, board, travel, and materials, while CASANA provides over 30 hours of specialized, advanced training with three CAS Expert faculty members and ongoing professional mentoring. Funding for the specialized training and mentoring is made possible by donors and supporters of the Walk for Children with Apraxia of Speech® as well as in-kind support from the Department of Speech-Language Pathology at Duquesne University.
Interested professionals should download the application and mail the completed application, postmarked no later than December 20, 2013, to CASANA. For questions, contact Kathy Hennessy via email only at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Heart attacks, sudden cardiac arrest, fatal arrhythmia-- they can happen at any moment, and in matters of the heart, survival is a race against the clock.
If it happens to you, would you be able to live to tell about it? It depends on more than just your health. We'll take a look at the best-and-worst places to have a heart emergency and hear from one family who is turning their tragedy into a life-saving campaign.
It can strike at any moment.
Mike Foster remembers the day he lost his son. "We were just tossing the football in my parents' yard, and he caught a pass and started running back and collapsed".
Foster's nine year old daughter McCain remembers it too, back when she was four years old. "When we went to the hospital, he never came back".
It was Thanksgiving 2006 in Panama City Beach, when John Wesley Foster died of sudden cardiac arrest. He was only nine years old.
Now John's family believes he could still be with them if he had received treatment sooner. Now they're working to ensure their tragedy isn't visited on another family.
Dr. Samir Patel, a local interventional cardiologist says an automated external defibrillator and a trained person to use it saves lives.
"Minutes count. You can literally die within 3-to-5 minutes if you're not treated appropriately" said Dr. Patel.
It's a golden window, that 3-to-5 minutes. What happens in that window will make the difference between life and death.
"If you're in a remote location like an airplane or on a boat, if they don't have an AED on site and someone trained to use it, those are obviously the worst places to have a heart attack" Dr. Patel said.
The good news is that AED's are spreading like an epidemic, with an increasing number of places where people congregate adding the devices.
"Now I notice them wherever I go; in hotels, airports, federal buildings, schools, sports parks, and now we're starting to see more coverage on the networks about an AED saving a life, and that's what we want to hear" added Foster.
John Foster's family is still grief-stricken by the death of their young son, but they're finding a way to channel their emotions. In the last five years, the Foster family has placed twenty-five AED's in Northwest Florida, and forty-five AED's in Florida, Alabama, and Tennessee.
"It doesn't get easier, we just learn to deal with it a little bit better and we do that through the foundation" said Foster.
The Foster family is trying to AED's as common as fire extinguishers in public places. They hold various fund-raisers, accept donations and get a good discount off the $1,500-$3,000 dollar devices.
There's still more to be done. To find out how you can help, go to the John Wesley Foster Foundation. We have a link on our website under the 'links' tab.

Dev Build 2101 is out now, with an improved status bar.
Apart from the status bar, the most noticeable change is that closing the current file via a key binding will select the previous file (in the mostly recently used stack), instead of the neighboring file. This was always the intended behavior, there was just a typo preventing it from triggering previously. One of the more debatable elements is that the behavior is different when closing via the mouse: here the neighboring file will be selected. I can't remember the justification for this, as the code was added a long time ago, but it may well be changed in a future build.
The OS X key bindings for Add Next Line / Add Previous Line have been changed due to a clash with inbuilt Lion key bindings.
On the theming side of things, there's now a status_button class available to customise the appearance of the clickable areas on the status bar.
Thank you for this quick release and fixing the indentation issue.
Quick question, I'm trying to fix the c + w in vintage mode not clearing the entire word because it stops at _ is Packages/Default/delete_word.py the file that handles that?
The w motion in Vintage is implemented with this command, in Vintage/Default.sublime-keymap:
{ "keys": "w"], "command": "set_motion", "args": {
"motion": "move",
"motion_args": {"by": "stops", "sub_word_begin": true, "word_begin": true, "forward": true, "extend": true }},
"context": {"key": "setting.command_mode"}]
In Vintage, "w" moves over sub-words, and "W" moves over normal words (This isn't exactly what happens in vi, but it is keeping in the spirit of w vs W). If you change the key binding to not stop at sub_word_begin, it'll act like W, which is closer to what vi does.
Thanks for fixing the close-file-defaults-to-unexpected-file bug, Jon. However, you've only done it when a keybinding is used. I think on middle-clicking the tab (or, presumably clicking on the cross on a tab (I have them turned off so dunno whether or not that does it)) should do it too. Every now and again I'll use the mouse rather than ctrl+w.
That is to say, that I think any time a tab is closed it should go back to previous in stack, not just when a keybinding is used. How does everyone else feel about that?
Agree 100%. Btw, Statusbar is far more usable now, thanks for that Jon. Would it be possible to add quick encoding menu there too?
I agree 100% too, and i really would like a quick syntax changer (like in textmate) in the statusbar. Is it doable ?
Thanks a lot =)
What about a menu that appears when you click the current syntax label in the statusbar? Perhaps you could customise it to show your favourite syntaxes. Since, I for one, only tend to use:1. PHP2. JavaScript3. CSS4. HTML5. Python
So I'd only need to ever see them!
Thanks Jon for the update.
What do you mean? Is already there!
Whoa, thanks !
I did not thought it could be clicked as it does not change anything or have a visual sign or something like that.
I liked @jbrooksuk idea (when i click i have a really big menu, and i would like to have just 5 or 7 options, perhaps with a setting like statusbar_syntax="python", "css", "html", "php", "ruby"]
Thanks @jon and all the people in this forum that makes Sublime the great tool it is.
Completely untested but presumably using ignored_packages you can turn off syntax availability of the languages you don't care about and they'll disappear from the menu. Added bonus is that they aren't loaded in at startup = precious startup time?
Obviously this does mean that if you ever want to actually use a language you've 'ignored' then you can to remove it from there, but no biggie, right?
And like I said, this is untested and for all I know ignored is just for plugins, not any kind of package...
No, since you can just go the usual Syntax menu and change it there. It's just that it would be nice to have the most used syntax files there.
I'd really like an option to control the close behavior. A lot of the time when I'm closing files, I'm closing several that are right next to each other and very rarely are they all the most recent in the stack. Having to constantly navigate back or use the mouse would be rather annoying. Ctrl/shift + tab are customizable in this way so hopefully the close behavior can be as well.
Also speaking of the ctrl/shift + tab behavior, it would be nice if they stayed in the active area. For example when in any of the layouts other than single, the tab binds will hop between the different areas which is pretty annoying.
What was the clash? I was very confused when I hit cmd+option+up to go to my header file and it didn't work.
Oops! I'll change the bindings again for the next version. Ctrl+Shift+Up/Down is no longer available on Lion, as Ctrl+Arrow keys are now the default keys for mission control (and annoyingly, it also eats ctrl+shift+arrow keys, which do the same thing as the unshifted version, just slower).
Next dev build won't be until next week though, as I'm off on a short holiday until the 18th.
Maybe a simple request for a next release:Default behaviour for closing tabs (Windows): CTRL+W
When I'm closing a lot of tabs, I'll keep pressing CTRL+W. But when all tabs are closed, the editor is next. Maybe it's an idea to give an alert-message: "Are you sure you want to exit?" Or maybe remove the keybinding for closing the editor, and only use ALT+F4?
If you implement this behaviour, please make it an option, since I frequently use ctrl+w to close the editor to avoid having to change my hand position to alt+f4, as ctrl+w doesn't require moving your hand from the home row.
Thank you, that's what I've been doing. Love the new status bar. p.s. hope you have a good holiday
Have fun Jon! You deserve it!

A brief introduction to myself...
I am a 24 year old native Belgian, currently based in Northern Ireland.
I discovered the Smiths not very long ago but got quite addicted in a short time, reading and listening as much as I can to fully discover the band. My main attraction pole are Morrissey's lyrics, in which I recognise pretty much of my own sentiments. The Smiths are one of the few intelligent bands out there, who use their abilities to create something that requires a functioning brain to understand, and that's a haven of enlightment in these times where modern music is in decay and reduced to a cheap consumption product. I have Asperger Syndrome myself and consider some Smiths songs (mostly How Soon Is Now) to be a sort of Aspie anthem, as the sentiments expressed in the song are very recognisable to lot of us 'Aspergians'.
I am also a huge fan of Echo & The Bunnymen (probably well known to most Smiths fans) and, as my username indicates, Bauhaus.

FAQ: Will PS3 Play 3D on DLP HDTV?
Will the Playstation 3 (PS3) play 3D (three dimensional) content on a DLP HDTV, such as Mitsubishi 3D Ready TVs? As of April 22, 2010, Sony released update 3.30, which enabled the PS3 to play 3D games. Not 3D movies, just games. Unfortunately there were no 3D games -- at least not full titles, just demos -- ready at launch. As of this writing (June 15, 2010) Sony has not yet released an update to the PS3's Blu-ray player that will enable it to play 3D Blu-ray movies. When is the PS3 3D Movie update coming? Nobody knows for sure except Sony, and they're not saying anything! Numerous public events, online forums and industry rumors put the launch later this summer, probably around the same time as Sony's new Bravia line hits stores, or perhaps closer to the fall right before the holiday shopping season ramps up. What formats will the PS3 support? Will they do checkerboard so I can use my Mitsubishi 3D Ready DLP? Currently there is no technical information available. It's hard to say if the PS3 will produce the required checkerboard format, but many people hope the answer is "yes". But if one considers how many people already own 3D ready TVs that use the checkerboard format, and the ability to update the PS3, it's probably a fair bet that the unit will support all the formats. Why do people have to upgrade TVs and not a newer version of PS3? The Playstation gaming system is primarily software based, meaning that software updates and firmware updates keep the machine at the cutting edge of technology. Since the machine's internal components don't have to be physically changed, you can keep the same PS3 and just run updates. If you already own a 3D Ready HDTV you will probably not have to upgrade, but it all depends on how the industry moves. It's just like the Blu-ray vs. HD-DVD battle, only with 3D there may be several formats that survive instead of just one.

What a transformation our forest has had! The leaves have all unfurled and now we walk through a tunnel of green, thick enough to shelter you from rain, as we discovered yesterday evening when clouds broke and sent down spring showers. Only a few drops reached us through the network of heavy foliage.
The ground is a mirror of the trees, a carpet of wild garlic and herbs, cool and glistening with dew.
Everywhere I go now, my belly leads the way. These are happy days, filled with planning, organizing, day dreaming, and hope. Hope that our baby will born healthy, and that we will grow into the roles of mother and father with ease.

The following form allows you to view linux man pages.
The following iterate function is supported for any semanage record.
Replace the function and object name as necessary.
extern int ITERATE_FUNCTION (
semanage_handle_t *handle,
int (*handler) (
const semanage_OBJECT_t *object,
void *varg),
void *handler_arg);
The iterate function will execute the specified handler over all
objects in the selected location. An arbitrary argument can be
passed into the handler function along with each object.
The object passed in is property of the libsemanage library, and
may not be modified or preserved - use semanage_OBJECT_clone if
that is necessary.
The handler code may not invoke any semanage write requests for
the same object type (i.e. modifying the underlying store is not
allowed). The iterate function is reentrant only while inside a
transaction (see semanage_begin_transaction ). It is not safe to
execute other semanage read or write requests within iterate if
not inside a transaction. The handler may return -1 to signal
error exit, 0 to signal continue, and 1 to signal successful
exit early (the iterate function will stop accordingly).
The handle is used to track persistent state across semanage
calls, and for error reporting. The handler is the function to
execute, with handler_arg as its second parameter, and each
object as its first parameter.
This function requires an semanage connection to be established
(see semanage_connect(3) )
In case of failure, -1 is returned, and the semanage error callback is
invoked, describing the error. Otherwise a non-negative integer is
returned (a commit number). The same number will be returned by all
other semanage object read calls until the next commit.

The IIHF and NHL have just announced that the New York Rangers will be the NHL representative in the first Victoria Cup tournament, which will be played Sept. 30 through Oct. 1 in Bern, Switzerland. The Rangers will play the European champions, Metallurg Magnitogorsk of Russia, as well as SC Bern, who are the current runaway leaders of the Swiss Nationalliga A.
Here's the press release:
IIHF News Flash: Inaugural Victoria Cup event in Berne (SUI), Sept. 30 – October 1
New York Rangers to play European champion Metallurg Magnitogorsk for the first Victoria Cup.
"Broadway Blueshirts" also to play SC Bern in exhibition.
NHL to open 2008-2009 regular season in Prague and Stockholm.
European club champion Metallurg Magnitogorsk (Russia) will play the NHL-challenger, New York Rangers, in the inaugural Victoria Cup on Wednesday, October 1, 2008, in the Swiss capital of Berne. The announcement was made jointly by the IIHF and the NHL.
The one-game Victoria Cup will be played at Berne's 16,789-capacity PostFinance-Arena, also the main venue for the 2009 IIHF World Championship. The winner will receive the Victoria Cup, a trophy to be awarded annually to the winner of game between Europe's top team and an NHL-challenger.
The introduction of the Victoria Cup was announced at the 2007 IIHF World Championship in Moscow as one of the highlight events celebrating the 100 Year Anniversary of the IIHF. The cup is named after the Victoria Skating Rink in Montreal where the first organised hockey game was played on March 3, 1875.
The Victoria Cup will be preceded by an exhibition game on Tuesday, September 30, between host SC Bern and the New York Rangers. It marks the first time a Swiss club will play an NHL team.
"This is a milestone for international hockey and for the relationship between the IIHF and the National Hockey League," said IIHF President René Fasel. "Ever since the historic game between the Montreal Canadiens and CSKA Moscow on New Year's Eve 1975, hockey fans around the world have been longing for games between NHL clubs and European teams. There have been several games since then, but this is the first time we will have a summit meeting, a one-off final, for a trophy which we hope will be part of the annual international calendar for years to come."
The games will be played on an international ice surface with IIHF rules. "But we are in the process of discussing with the NHL to integrate a few NHL rules specifically for the Victoria Cup, as well as having both games officiated jointly by both IIHF and NHL referees," said René Fasel. "As the IIHF has adopted the four-man officiating system, the Victoria Cup presents the perfect opportunity to have IIHF and NHL referees work together."
"René Fasel had said he hoped to have 'a team with some history' represent the NHL at the Victoria Cup event, and we are extremely pleased the Rangers agreed to participate," said NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman. "We also are delighted to help the IHF celebrate its 100th Anniversary."
"We agreed that the Rangers would be the optimal club to represent the NHL in the first Victoria Cup," said IIHF President René Fasel on the decision to have the New York Rangers become the NHL-challenger in the inaugural Victoria Cup. "The Rangers were the first ever NHL club to play against a European team when they met CSKA Moscow in New York on December 28, 1975, they have been one of the NHL teams that have most often shown enthusiasm to go overseas and there is no doubt that many Europeans fans will have no problems identifying with the heavy international presence that the club has. But first and foremost, the New York Rangers are one of the most identifiable clubs in all of hockey and professional sports."
Jaromir Jagr, Martin Straka, Petr Prucha, Michal Rozsival, Marek Malik (CZE), Henrik Lundqvist (SWE), Brendan Shanahan, Marc Staal (CAN), Fedor Tyutin (RUS), Scott Gomez, Chris Drury (USA), Marcel Hossa (SVK) represent the international diversity of the club. Among players in the farm system, who could be on the team next season, are Artem Anisimov (RUS), Lauri Korpikoski (FIN) and Thomas Pock (AUT). The Rangers' top selection in the 2007 NHL Draft was highly touted Russian forward Alexei Cherepanov (this season in Avangard Omsk, RUS).
The Rangers were also the first NHL club to recruit a European born and trained player when the "Blueshirts" signed Swedish forward Ulf Sterner in 1964.
Metallurg Magnitogorsk won the Russian championship in 2007 and was thus qualified to play for the European title at the IIHF European Champions Cup in St. Petersburg, Russia in early January. Metallurg defeated Czech champion Sparta Prague, 5-2, in the gold medal game to become the fourth consecutive Russian club to win the ECC title. (The ECC will from next season be replaced by the 12-team Champions Hockey League).
Metallurg, a four-time Russian league champion, is one of Europe's premier clubs of the modern era having won European titles also in 1999 and 2000. Metallurg is currently second in the 20-team Russian Superliga, twelve points behind leader Salavat Yulayev. Metallurg's roster includes Canadian goaltender Travis Scott, Czech forwards Jan Marek, and Jaroslav Kudrna, Slovak defenceman Martin Strbak and former NHLer Alexei Kaigorodov.
Defenceman Vitali Atyushin was named MVP of the European Champions Cup, Best Defenceman and selected by media to the tournament All-Star Team.
Metallurg – NY Rangers will be the first Russia vs. NHL club match-up for 17 years. The last time NHL clubs faced Russian teams was during a 21-game series between December 1990 and January 1991. Dynamo Moscow – Quebec Nordiques (4-1) on January 15th remains the last occasion when a Russian club faced an NHL team.
Since the first encounter between the New York Rangers and CSKA Moscow on December 28, 1975 at Madison Square Garden, NHL clubs have faced Russian/Soviet clubs for a total of 108 games. The Russian/Soviet teams have an all-time 57W-10T-41L-record against NHL clubs. (At the bottom of the page is a list of all NY Rangers games vs. European clubs as well as all NHL vs. NHL games involving the Rangers in Europe).
On the decision to appoint Swiss club SC Bern as host and to play the games at the PostFinance-Arena in Berne:
"Out of several choices we worked with, in the end nobody had the credentials of SC Bern and its arena," said Fasel. "SC Bern is one of the best-organised hockey clubs in Europe, they are in a successful phase and their fans are maybe the best in the world. Of the many options we had to consider for the Victoria Cup, we felt Berne had earned the right to host this inaugural event because of its devoted fan support."
For the sixth straight year in 2007-08, SC Bern had the best attendance of all European clubs with an average of 15,815 spectators. In 2005-06 the club set an all-time attendance record in Europe with 15,994. Currently, as the club is the run-away leader in the Swiss league, 16 points ahead of the runner-up, they average 15,975 fans per game.
The club, which is coached by the 17-year NHL-veteran and former Montreal Canadien and Buffalo Sabre John van Boxmeer, also has a very international roster which includes Canadians Christian Dubé, Sébastien Bordeleau, Ramzi Abid, Simon Gamache, Nathan Dempsey, American Mark Mowers and Swede Christian Berglund. All are familiar names to the fans of the NHL.
Dubé, who won the IIHF World U20 gold medal with Canada in 1996 and 1997, was the Rangers' 2nd round draft pick in 1995. He played 33 games with the Rangers 1996-99 before he moved back to Switzerland in 1999.
Coach John van Boxmeer won the Stanley Cup with Montreal in 1976 and he played with the Canadiens in the 1975 New Year's Eve epic, the game that served as an informal starting point for the Victoria Cup.
The NHL also announced today that the Rangers, Tampa Bay Lightning, Pittsburgh Penguins and Ottawa Senators will open the 2008-09 NHL regular season in Europe. This autumn, NHL Premiere in 2008 expands to two European locations: Prague, Czech Republic and Stockholm, Sweden.
For the first time in NHL history, on Saturday, October 4 and Sunday, October 5, two NHL games will be played in Europe on the same day. The Prague games feature the New York Rangers and Tampa Bay Lightning at the Sazka Arena. The Pittsburgh Penguins and Ottawa Senators will play in Stockholm at the Globe Arena. The two games per venue will count as one home and one away game in their NHL schedules.
The Stanley Cup champion Anaheim Ducks and the Los Angeles Kings opened the 2007-08 regular season in front of two sell-out crowds at the O2 Arena in London.

Teens will drag you in One Direction for This Is Us, but PEOPLE's writers say stay away from Getaway.
Here's your weekend movie guide:
See This if You're a Teen – or the Parent of One
This Is Us
Morgan Spurlock had all the ingredients at his disposal in the making of his documentary about the phenomenally popular boy band One Direction. This Is Us promises an all-access pass into the lives of Harry, Louis, Niall, Liam and Zayn but comes off as sweet as the cotton candy the band have been seen to eat on stage. This 3D documentary misses the opportunity to reveal the greater depth and strength of five young British lads who, after solo X Factor auditions and rejections, suddenly found themselves thrown together to form an instant boy band.
This Is Us compiles auditions, home visits, staged scenes and live concert footage from the band s recent Take Me Home tour that weaves in playful behind-the scenes antics as the band crisscrosses continents. Their clamoring fans are only allowed glimpses of the sacrifice and hard work that comes with sudden and extraordinary success. This Is Us poignantly touches upon the personal loss of freedom that comes with a meteoric rise to fame. Undoubtedly, these guys are charismatic – after all, there's a reason that they're a world-famous band with legions of fans. But ultimately, the film misses the mark in presenting them as more than one-dimensional.
Skip This
When a stranger kidnaps his wife (Rebecca Budig), washed-up racecar driver Brent Magna (Ethan Hawke) has only one hope of getting her back: by following instructions from disembodied voice on the phone. Bewilderingly, those instructions consist mainly of driving a Shelby Super Snake in stunningly reckless ways, tearing up property all over Bulgaria. But don't write this thriller off as being merely dumb, because soon Selena Gomez shows up as The Kid, a hacker/gearhead who's also taken along for the ride, allowing Getaway to achieve epic stupidity.
The film is largely an excuse to smash stuff up, with the Super Snake outrunning and outmaneuvering police and civilian vehicles at every turn. It's a cool car, no doubt. But it comes with a contrived plot about an omniscient, omnipotent master criminal up against a lunkhead and a teenager. You not only know who'll win, it won't even be all that interesting to see how it's done. Mainly, Getaway is just loud, silly and wastes its talented cast – but not the car.
And Skip This
Afternoon Delight
An offensive declaration of class war tarted up as a comedy, Afternoon Delight is a misfire from beginning to end. (I really do mean from the get-go; it opens with a rape joke then spirals from there.)
The film from writer/director Jill Soloway stars Kathryn Hahn as Rachel, an upper-middle-class Los Angeles stay-at-home mom who, for some reason, avoids sex with her husband, Jeff (Josh Radnor). Looking to spice things up, the couple and some friends head to a strip club, where a pro named McKenna (Juno Temple) gives Rachel a lap dance. It must be a doozy of a bump and grind, because immediately after, Rachel loses her mind.
Soon, the mom finds excuses to run into McKenna, eventually inviting the hard-luck case to stay with her family, including a preschooler. Maybe, you're thinking, she's just being charitable? Totally possible – plausible, even. But how about when McKenna quickly reveals that she's a full-service sex worker still seeing clients, and Rachel barely bats an eye? Now you're with me. Who wouldn't immediately insist this stranger pack her bags? On what version of Earth does this film exist?
It's not just that the plot is preposterous, it's that it pits privileged women against unprivileged women in a way that makes everyone look horrible. After all, for whom are we supposed to root, exactly? The woman who invites a prostitute into her home and social circle, or the woman who's a time bomb, ready to destroy lives on a whim? The film tries to hit serious notes toward the end, but by then it's far too late.
There are no winners here – least of all the viewers.
And This
Closed Circuit
Forgettable and stale, Closed Circuit casts Rebecca Hall and Eric Bana as British solicitors Claudia and Martin, caught up in a terror trial. The former lovers aren't supposed to have any communication due to the top-secret nature of the case, but when unfortunate accidents begin to befall people associated with the trial, they can't help but compare notes.
Strangely, for a film that's largely about technology (the bad guys follow Martin and Claudia on London's multitude of security cameras), Closed Circuit feels terribly dated, with twists you'll see coming and an ending that feels like everyone involved just threw up their hands and said "whatever." Still, if you have any inkling to see then film do try to avoid the trailer. It spoils the whole mystery, such as it is.

KIRKLAND – Rather than wait for economic development, the Kirkland Village Board is putting tax increment financing dollars to work.
After numerous complaints from residents, the board purchased the empty building that once housed a grocery store on Main Street. An ad hoc committee is working toward getting the building cleaned out, renovated and then rented or sold.
Village President Les Bellah talked about the history of the building, and getting the community involved in its revitalization.
"The store was once owned by former Village President Fred Manni," Bellah said. Manni sold it, and the buyers seemed to pass it around among family members, Bellah said. The business declined to the point where residents disliked shopping there, he said.
Finally, the owners walked away and the bank repossessed the building, leaving it empty for about two years. Bellah said the bank tried to auction the building, but it didn't sell. When the price tag was set at $90,000, Bellah and the board instructed attorney Scott Puma to offer $50,000 from the village's general fund. The bank agreed and the village now owns the 6,500-square-foot building.
"This was a no-brainer," Bellah said.
Village trustee John Pierce serves on the committee as the liaison with the Village Board. Public works employee Dale Miller is the chairman. Other committee members are Emily Harvel, Wayne Johnson and Jamie Bellah, who is the village president's daughter-in-law.
Pierce said the next step is to clean out the fixtures – shelves, coolers and other equipment – left behind.
"We've talked about getting an auctioneer in here to auction off the shelves and coolers," Pierce said.
Once that is complete, Pierce said the committee can get some professional assistance to prioritize what needs to be done to bring the building up to code.
"It looks pretty bad, but the building appears to be structurally sound," Pierce said.
Although TIF funds cannot be used to purchase property, Bellah said the village has about $250,000 available in TIF funds to rehabilitate the building.
Included in Kirkland's TIF district is the downtown business district. Bellah said TIF funds have been used for a variety of projects around the community, but the most visible are the sidewalk and lighting improvements to Main Street.
TIF districts are a special mechanism local governments can use to spur development in blighted areas. As development occurs and property values rise, increased property tax revenue is diverted to a special account that can be used for improvements for 23 years. Bellah said only four years remain for the community's TIF district.
"If the money isn't spent, we have to rebate it to the property owners, but if it's earmarked for a project, we can use it," Bellah said.
Neither Pierce nor Bellah had an estimate of when the project might be complete.
"We can't go so fast that we'll screw it up," Bellah said.
By the time the building is ready to be occupied again, Bellah hopes to have a tenant. He said he will actively recruit a convenience store.
Although he said he wasn't aware of any other community purchasing a building to renovate, Bellah said it was empty for so long that he believed the board needed to do something.
"There may be someone in DeKalb County looking for this," Bellah said. "We can't wait for economic development. We're being proactive."

Why You Should Be Excited About Windows 8
Yesterday, Microsoft took the covers off one of their most ambitious projects in years, one that could arguably place the company back into the limelight they lost in the tug-of-war between Apple and Google. The unveiled Windows 8 operating system was designed specifically with touch and tablets in mind, borrowing heavily from the Windows Phone 7 interface, a decision which has us excited because this looks like the most consumer-friendly (and colorful) Windows OS ever. We spotlight a few reasons why you might want to get excited (we are)...
What's evident upon watching the video above is Microsoft has tablets on their mind. And even though they say Windows 8 will work with a mouse and keyboard (perhaps in conjunction with their upcoming/delayed swipe-touch mouse), the OS demo reveals a laser beam focus upon the tablet experience. Frankly, it's the best thing we've seen since iOS, exhibiting what we believe is a better execution of touch-based operations than either Google, RIM and their ilk have produced in the race to catch up with the iPad. Love it or hate it, the iPad is the leader in UI design, but what we respect about the direction Microsoft has taken here is less "copy and paste" and embarking in a much more risky vision of the user experience on mobile devices, from the phone to the tablet, all the way to larger PC screens.
Key features of Windows 8:
- Fast launching of apps from a tile-based Start screen, which replaces the Windows Start menu with a customizable, scalable full-screen view of apps.
- Live tiles with notifications, showing always up-to-date information from your apps.
- Fluid, natural switching between running apps.
- Convenient ability to snap and resize an app to the side of the screen, so you can really multitask using the capabilities of Windows.
- Web-connected and Web-powered apps built using HTML5 and JavaScript that have access to the full power of the PC.
- Fully touch-optimized browsing, with all the power of hardware-accelerated Internet Explorer 10.
The "live tile" system will be recognizable to both Windows Phone 7 and Zune users, giving users access to apps and updated information within the tiles. An interesting feature is the inclusion of a split-style keyboard for vertical oriented tablet typing, something that should make typing on a virtual keyboard possibly easier for newer user of tablets. We also liked the swipe down to switch to other open windows option, alongside the colourful-modern GUI throughout.
What we didn't like was seeing elements of the old Windows operating system underneath, revealing itself when certain applications are launched. But this could be just where development is at with Windows 8 (out of habit, we keep wanting to type OS 8) and refinement of application UI is likely to evolve as the release nears a planned 2012 launch. In any case, this is great news overall for Windows and OS X users alike, simply for the fact the Windows 8 preview raises the bar in regards to consumer-oriented touch devices/interfaces beyond some of the clunky-awkward tablet UIs that have yet to bridge to a wider audience (yes, we're pointing our fingers at you, Android, aka "Dude OS 1.0").
Not sure this OS X user is going to "switch", but we're definitely interested in installing the future version in dual boot mode and giving Redmond's latest creation a fair shake. We like what we've seen thus far...let's see if they can deliver a better experience with less pop-ups, bloatware and malware that has crippled the Windows experience for many, elements just as important as the graphical and performance improvements exhibited above.
What do you think about what you've seen with this preview?

I held a Star Wars themed house party at the weekend, so now that's all done with I have to get rid of some large Star Wars props.
My next project will be the continuation of Android 10, which you can find in the Android 10 part 2 article.
A robot I built a while ago but never finished made it onto Engadget, HackedGadgets, Makezine and Digg. This meant I've had 22,658 visitors to my XRobots website in the last 5 days (so far) consuming 46Gb of bandwidth, which is more than I usually do in two years.
I might take the time to finish that project after my Star Wars party is all done with.
Some updated links:
Jabba the Hut Construction Project
...pics of the Star Wars house party to follow ;-)
Thought I should post something as it's been a while.
I've been a little separated from 'real robots' for a while, as I decided to build a full size Star Wars R2-D2 replica prop. You can check out all the construction pictures over on my website:
http://www.xrobots.co.uk/modules/news/article.php? storyid=28
My current project is now a C-3PO prop which you can find here:
http://www.xrobots.co.uk/modules/news/article.php? storyid=29
I built my own vacuum forming equipment for these projects. If you want to ask questions then you can post a comment in my guestbook/forum:
As you may have aleady noticed, the White Box Robotics corporate site has been redesigned and relaunched, with further technical details on the 9 Series PC Bot now that it is available. There are lots of fancy new graphics as well as a link to buy your Bot on line.
The prices published are those for the first low volume production run, over engineered and hand crafted version of the 9 Series PC Bot. However, there is a cheaper option for just $3995 US for the Bot with no plastic covers which is being marketed as the '9-Series PC-BOT Development Platform'
There is also a new Wiki and Image gallery over at 914pcbots.com, some new pictures have gone up recently of the PC Bot factory which is located in Ottawa.
Hello everyone, the world of PC BOTS is getting very exciting now as several people have recieved their bots or are due to get them shortly.
Check out a brief review of the bot from the first pioneers in this thread.
There is now a new image gallery over at 914pcbots.com. So far one person has posted pics of unpacking their bot and some others are on the way.
Feel free to come over to the community if you have any interest in robots based around PCs...
All my android projects are on hold for now as I'm spending most of my free time working on www.914pcbots.com. Despite it not looking any different at the moment we are working on a new look and feel which will be launched shortly.
c6jones720 is doing most of the new artwork for the site, we spoke to Tom Burick - the man himself, founder of White Box robotics the other night. He has a very clear idea of where he's heading, from the site appearance, to the future of robotics and taking over the world with the PC Bot!.
To anyone who's wondering, there certainly is a PC Bot product that will appear shortly, despite it having been 'around the corner' for some time - this is because the product is quite unique and must be right first time to make the right impact.
Watch this space and check www.914pcbots.com over the next month or so for updates.
So, android 9 is almost walking. I have the top section of one of the legs pretty much doing the right thing at the right time, just need to do the same with the other and it will locomote. If I get around to doing the bottom sections of the legs it should walk quite well.
I've been a bit busy recently doing stuff over at www.914pcbots.com as I've established admin rights (for now...). Hopefuly Whitebox Robotics will deliver the first shipment of robots soon and then we'll have a full blown fan site. There are already 100's of registered users although most are 'lurking' for now. From the stats is looks like there are around 300 visitors a day so it will be good once the product is available.
On top of that I've been thinking about creating a new android called 'Android X' as it will be the tenth and also matches the Website name of XRobots. Android 9 will probably be ok but I usualy get bored at this point in development and have better ideas.
I'd quite like to use actuators/motors on all the joints instead of having passive ankles because that's the hardest thing to work with. I'd also like propper knees again rather than my on-going parallel mechanism that I've used since android 3. I quite like the balsa wood construction but next time I'll use RE/RS540 motors and make my own gearboxes out of plastic gears, using skateboard wheel bearings for the output shafts. It will look a bit like the RoboOne robots that use R/C style servos but scaled up to about 4 feet / 1.5m tall.

text: Hi, I have followed this (http://www.howtoforge.com/your-cloud-your-data-your-way-owncloud-4.0-nginx-postgresql-on-centos-6.2) tutorial almost to the letter. I then jump into the owncloud.example.com site and I get the first owncloud page asking me to set things up I type in all the values I want and when I click finish set up I get this bizarre "can't find web address" error (chrome say it is: Error 111 (net::ERR_TUNNEL_CONNECTION_FAILED): Unknown error.) I have tried restarting all the service (php-fpm, postgresql, and nginx) I have gone through all the conf files and they are exactly the same as what is in the how to. I have checked all the logs and there is nothing in there and dmesg doesn't report anything Is there a log I am missing? I probably am an intermidiate user of Linux but this is really the first web server sort of thing I have set up so I am really a begginer at this and I think as a result struggle to see where the issues might be. Any help will be greatly appreciated EDIT: I have been doing the final set ups remotely will this be causing problems should I really be working on the local network? Cheers, ar17787

Maybe they'll blow up the Death Star again next picture. At least it will be more entertaining than this dribble.
It was bad over two hours so the extra time was mind-numbing.
I liked this show well enough until it began deteriorating into a commercial for all things politically correct.
It may be a good idea to have the same writers next picture in order to speed the demise of this series.
I hope this is finished playing so we can get something new and superior to take its place.
The least of all the S.W.'s made so far.
Best thing about this movie and the previous two is that we can fondly look back on what Star Wars was like when it was done well.
The film was bad but one can often not blame the actors as they aren't responsible for the lines given to them.
If we had more films like this, we would have less films like this once the public caught on to the charade.
My favorite example of a movie that will be used for women studies, but not in a good way.

Defeat Sprint's Rate Hike Cancellation Lies
Sprint's retention department is trying its darnedest to prevent customers from jumping out a window of opportunity that would let them cancel service without penalty.
The most common line Sprint customer service reps are using is that text messages are an "add-on," and therefore not covered in the original contract.
This is a blatant lie.
You can still cancel without paying a termination fee, but it will take persistence and tenacity. One successful canceller threatened to file a letter with his Public Utilities commission, and then did it. He received a letter confirming he got out of contract without charge a week later.
The reps may try to tell you the change only applies to people with special text message plans, or only to people who signed up after Oct. 1. These too are bald misrepresentations.
Be firm. Be in control.
Some customers report being offered service credits or free text messaging to stay. Be aware that if you accept these carrots, you will have accepted the new terms of service and not be able to cancel over the text message rate hikes.
Canceled Sprint successfully under these terms? Trying to and failed? Share your thoughts in the comments or tips at consumerist.com

Bethenny Frankel, star of the Real Housewives of NYC appeared on the Today Show this morning, and touched on a lot of topics. The video is below.
Bethenny discussed the rather controversial nude picture she took for PETA. She had been criticized for saying little to no airbrushing was done, when the actual before and after photo showed a lot of airbrushing. "There was a rogue boob they took out," Bethenny told TODAY's Matt Lauer of the photo, which was taken when she was pregnant. "It's a little airbrushed, but the truth is, here it is. I don't care."
She continued, "It wasn't like I was posing for a fitness video or I was trying to be a model. It was about not wearing fur, which I'm really passionate about."
When asked about her pregnancy and wedding plans to fiance, Jason Hoppy, Bethenny told Lauer she's too busy thinking about her baby to plan a wedding. She is due in June 2010 by the way. Bethenny also said that people might have to change how they view her once she becomes a mom. "I think people think I'm a little abrasive," she said. "It's going to be hard for people to imagine me being soft and cuddly with a little, cute pink baby."
Bethenny who just wrapped up filming the 3rd season of the Real NYC Housewives has been given her own reality show on Bravo. The show is currently in production, but according to Bethenny, she might still return for a 4th season of the NYC Housewives. "Who knows if I'll be on 'Housewives'?" she told Lauer. "This season is so incredible, it's nice to leave the part at full-tilt."

Audit shows UCDD exec "living the dream" on tax dollars | Health
The state comptroller's office has revealed an incredible amount of corruption and wasteful spending by the former head of a group that is supposed to help develop local economies.
The Upper Cumberland Development District (UCDD) promotes economic development and helps write grant requests for 14 counties, including Cumberland and Fentress Counties. The Cookeville-based organization is funded overwhelmingly by state and federal tax dollars. UCDD board members include the mayors and executives of the governments it serves.
A state audit shows the board members were not involved in direct oversight of UCDD, which allowed its former executive director, Wendy Askins, to spend enormous amounts of money on personal items unrelated to her job. The audit says the largest example of corruption comes from a senior living center project called "Living The Dream."
The state report said Askins spent $1.4 million of your state and federal taxpayer dollars to fund the Living the Dream project. Some of that money was for the senior living center and most of it was spent on Askins.
The senior living facility was constructed as a single-level facility with modest living quarters with wall-unit air conditioning units. That stands in stark contrast to the luxurious adjoining multistory main living quarters Askins constructed as a personal home for herself and her daughter.
The dream home comes complete with a $1,500 fireplace and a staircase with a price tag of $25,000. The home also features a couple of steam showers for Askins and her daughter's bathrooms that cost $6,000 each.
The audit says Askins spent a total of $24,000 on furniture for herself and immediate relatives.
Askins gave up her seat earlier this year amid investigations into improprieties. She resigned in March, 2012.
The State Comptroller's Office posted the full report on its website. It also posted a pdf photo gallery comparing the home Askins was living in to the senior living quarters.
The mayor of Crossville and the head of the Chamber of Commerce for Cumberland County spoke to 10News about their reactions to the audit. Both expressed surprise at the amount of inappropriate spending by Askins. They also said they are hopeful UCDD can return to its intended role now that it has new staff and leadership in place.
"It is something we need to promote the area. It [UCDD] is designed to promote and provide economic development," said Crossville mayor JH Graham.
"It sounds as if all of this will hopefully get them [UCDD] back on track," said Crossville-Cumberland County Chamber of Commerce CEO Beth Alexander. "I know they recently hired some good people recently like Wallace Austin [from the chamber in Sparta]. Those are the type of people I look forward to working with."

Cure For Most Of What Ails You
Nigel West Dickens is at Fort Mercer, where he's doing his usual thing. The product he's shilling turns out to be, contrary to his beliefs, Undead Bait. This "grenade" attracts all nearby undead to its point of impact for a surprisingly long period of time, and you'll receive five of them from Dickens in exchange for, well, not shooting him. To make more, combine one wild feverfew, which are easy to find in the fields north of Armadillo, and one prairie poppy, which grow like weeds in the hills just west of Blackwater.
Dickens is trying to cure the plague, and for that, he needs five Violet Snowdrops, which grow wild around Tall Trees in New Elizabeth, and five Desert Sage (note: not Red Sage), which grow near Gaptooth Ridge northwest of Fort Mercer. He also gives you three Survivalist Maps, although you aren't informed of this; upon use, a Survivalist Map vastly increases the distance at which you can see herbs on your minimap.
It's a good idea to go Snowdrop-hunting in Tall Trees while you're doing the Birth of the Conservation Movement mission, just for the sake of efficiency. The hills around Rathskeller Fork are probably the single best place for finding Desert Sage. Make sure to collect more of both than you technically need.
Your reward for gathering herbs from all over the tri-state area is the recipe for making Phosphorus Rounds. This is a short-lived buff rather than a new type of ammunition, and turns all of your bullets into incendiaries. Using it will use up one of any kind of Sage and one Violet Snowdrop, and it's very useful for getting one of the Undead Sharpshooter challenges.
Dickens's next mission for you is simpler: collect some parts from Nigel's Charge, near Fort Mercer. You don't seem to be able to pick up the parts at all if you're on the second Missing Souls mission, available at Fort Mercer, so you'll have to make two trips if that's the case. Fortunately, if you have no other pressing business in the area, the map will obligingly label the parts you need with a W icon once you get close.
Bring Nigel back the parts and he'll give you the Blunderbuss, a single-shot shotgun that you can reload with zombie parts. Ten zombie bits makes one Blunderbuss shell; one Blunderbuss shell makes a zombie or two into three yards' worth of blood and dirt. It's very slow to reload and you can't loot a smear of plasma, but at least the ammo's easy to come by.
If you want a way into Mexico, and you do, head a short distance south and talk to Nigel at Solomon's Folly.

Grand Theft Auto IV: The Ballad of Gay Tony
|Suicidal Margot
Remember Margot? She's the crazy girl that Luis dated a year or so ago. If you did the side mission we named "The Pill Popper," then this mission will pop up later. You'll have to head to the stick-figure icon located off of Privateer Road/Union Drive East, at a dockside building. Climb the stairs upward to run into her. Margot is a drama queen, and she's now threatening to commit suicide because Luis doesn't want to marry her. Luis tries to talk her out of her plan, but she then wields a letter saying that it says Luis is responsible for her death. Then, surprisingly, she jumps, killing herself. Luis is now in a bind.
Because Luis was with her when she jumped, all passer-bys saw was Luis standing where Margot was. It appears as if he actually pushed her, and now, these passer-bys are chasing Luis, and are out for blood. All you have to do is get out of the vicinity. The cops will eventually be called, meaning you need to lose them as well. It doesn't really matter how you get out of dodge here, as long as you get away. Just get in a car and drive away, until you lose the cops.
