Particularly Exciting Week in Linux
Linux is usually exciting, but this past week brought several nice developments. Slackware announced another developmental milestone for their next version. Bodhi Linux reached 1.0. Foresight announced their first release in two years. Zenwalk developers released version 7.0. And SimplyMepis gets a release candidate.
Slackware 13.37
One of the geekiest releases of the week came on March 22 with Slackware 13.37 RC 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288419716. Patrick Volkerding named the upcoming version 13.37 as a play with numbers to dub the next Slackware "LEET." Volkerding said he hoped that appeased those who were always complaining that Slackware didn't use codenames like some other distributions. But then to further perpetuate the already geeky image of the distribution, the next developmental snapshot after Release Candidate 2 was named after the mathematical constant Pi (π), another highly geeky concept in some circles. Volkerding is adding an element of fun to a sometimes dry process and his efforts are certainly being noticed. The question is will he be able to top it?
This particular release includes Linux kernel 188.8.131.52, KDE 4.5.5, Xorg X Server 1.9.5, GCC 4.5.2, Firefox 4.0, GIMP 2.6.11, and MPlayer 20101213. Volkerding said Slackware 13.37 is just about ready, but he waiting for Linux kernel 22.214.171.124. A new addition to the boot routine is Memtest86+, a component that provides memory hardware testing included with several distribution boot options. Third-party DVD images are available on ftp.df.lth.se.
The little-distro-that-could has seen its first major stable release with 1.0. This mimimalistic distribution burst onto the scene less than six months ago and has create a bit of a mini-sensation. Whether it's the do-it-yourself spirit or its anti-kitchensink persona, it certainly has reviewer's interest. Most have been highly encouraging for this team of developers, that is as small as the distro.
Bodhi ships with the Enlightenment desktop (with some LXDE components), a shell emulator, light-weight Web browser, small file manager, and a software manager. Lead developer Jeff Hoogland says that Bodhi 1.1.0 will probably be released late May with a kernel upgrade and Bodhi 2.x shouldn't be expected before Summer 2012.
Zenwalk got a major update recently too. 7.0 was released on March 25 bringing Linux 22.214.171.124 with BFS, Xfce 4.8.1, GCC 4.5.2, Xorg X Server 1.9.5. Zenwalk began life in 2004 as a small, fast alternative to Slackware. It offers one application per task and simplifies the Slackware install routine. It features IceCat Web browser, LibreOffice 3.3, GIMP 2.6.11, and Pidgin 2.7.11. Other software includes Totem movie player, Gmusicbrowser music player, and Brasero CD/DVD creator.
Warren Woodford announced SimplyMEPIS 11.0.RC1 on March 28. This developmental cycle began with a few major issues, but things are really starting to come together. The boot issues seem to be cleared up for most users, but folks with older NVIDIA cards still may have problems. This release came with Linux kernel 220.127.116.11, NVIDIA drivers 260.19.21, KDE 4.5.1, Firefox 4.0, and Libreoffice 3.3.2. No official word when the final will emerge, but Woodford usually tests three release candidates before going gold.
One of the more exciting announcements came from the Foresight camp on March 27. Foresight has been a bit quiet for almost two years. A few developmental snapshots have appeared in the last two months, but before that Foresight Linux 2.1.1 was released on May 15, 2009. Foresight is an interesting project as it uses the Conary package management solution.
Conary is a bit different from other package managers in that it can actually pull in updates from a wide range of sources and also only pulls the files that have changed rather than an entire package. It also offers users the mechanism for safe rollbacks. All these features make Foresight an excellent distribution for those that prefer a rolling distribution over regular fresh installs. Linux for Devices has an excellent explanation of the Conary package system.
This release also brings GNOME 2.32.1, KDE 4.6.1, and Xfce 4.8.1 sitting on Linux kernel 188.8.131.52, Xorg X Server 1.8.0, and lots of lots of software.
Other Goodies
Believe it or not, that's not all. The great backup solution Clonezilla Live 1.2.8-23, the 100% Open Source Trisquel GNU/Linux 4.5, and handy dandy GParted Live 0.8.0-5 round out recent developments.
I love the Spring with the smell of fresh distros swirling in the air.

Slackware 13.37
The as yet unreleased Slackware 13.37 has moved on to kernel 126.96.36.199.. The latest release candidate is called RC 4.6692 named after the first Feigenbaum constant.
Let's say not 10, but million
Let's say not 10, but million new distros appeared and...? You will be more productive because of that? Software will be more reliable?
Polish writer, S.Kisielewski, has a wise saying "you cannot make the tea more sweet just by stirring it".
IOW, I would much more prefer one distro, but rock-solid, at leat regressions-free. With 1000000.... distros we don't advance an inch, they create more noise, that's all.
I feel like a kid at a candy store counter.
linux system monitoring tools
Hello All
I just need to ask about any existing tool in linux which can show us the CPU memory and swap utilizations of overall system for particular time duration and generate graphs.?i m a student of computer science and want this information of resource utilization for my project..kindly reply if any of u liux fans knows about such tools
Elementary OS
And what about Elementary OS, to be released tomorrow (31/03)?
Exciting week! Not so much
First of all Slackware did get an RC3 before RC3.14...
I wanted to ask about Bohdi. Since when did it became relevant. Its been all over the news, it has seen 10 reviews already, before even reaching 1.0. I dont have anything with the guys behind it but i dont remember that much hype for a distro since ubuntu appeared. For example wouldnt it be more logical for mageia to get more publicity than bohdi?
Mageia is an actual distribution baacked up by hundreds of volunteers. on the contrary bohdi is an ubuntu spin-off.
Even you Susan list it right after Slackware in this article.

How to Build an Optimal Hadoop Cluster to Store and Maintain Unlimited Amounts of Data Using Microservers
Realizing the promise of Apache® Hadoop® requires the effective deployment of compute, memory, storage and networking to achieve optimal results. With its flexibility and multitude of options, it is easy to over or under provision the server infrastructure, resulting in poor performance and high TCO. Join us for an in depth, technical discussion with industry experts from leading Hadoop and server companies who will provide insights into the key considerations for designing and deploying an optimal Hadoop cluster.
Some of key questions to be discussed are:
- What is the "typical" Hadoop cluster and what should be installed on the different machine types?
- Why should you consider the typical workload patterns when making your hardware decisions?
- Are all microservers created equal for Hadoop deployments?
- How do I plan for expansion if I require more compute, memory, storage or networking?

2010 Beaulieu Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Napa
"Elegant and nicely balanced, our 2010 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon reflects the long-hangtime vintage with its core of vibrant briary blackberry, black cherry and dark plum expression. We added Syrah to enhance the wine's juiciness and spice, and a splash of Cabernet Franc for a hint of violet perfume. The fruit-focused aromas and flavors take center stage, while subtle vanilla-oak and mocha nuances from barrel aging linger in the background. The cool growing season enhanced this wine's supple structure of bright acidity and fine-grained tannins, making it immediately enjoyable with mellow cheeses and red meats, such as filet of beef tenderloin accompanied by a Yukon gold potato and fennel gratin."

By Steve Netherby, San Clemente
Last September, as reported in this paper, I hiked the John Muir Trail from Yosemite Valley to the peak of Mt. Whitney. The JMT is an iconic hike, through perhaps the most beautiful country in the High Sierras, and I had wanted to complete it since I was a teenager. After my pack and I had ridden trains and buses from San Clemente to Yosemite, I set out on the trail with a sense of elation and happy anticipation.
As I trekked upward from Yosemite's Happy Isles toward Vernal and Nevada Falls, I recorded my impressions on my iPhone's audio notes application. Ironically, my seventh voice memo on that blue-sky day was a sobering one, all about San Clemente's neighboring San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS): I asked myself, "What if SONGS melts down while I'm up here and Jackie (my wife) is home in San Clemente?"
First, I might not find out for days, possibly weeks—there's no cell phone service over 98 percent of the trail. Second, once I did find out, I would do all in my power to get home to my wife; we'll have been married for 46 years this February and, if she were exposed to the radiation, I would want to be with her, to hold her close and share her fate. But would I be allowed to return? What if she was trapped in the evacuation zone and I couldn't get to her? The questions that came, one after the other, were heart wrenching.
For too many years, we in Orange and San Diego Counties have, in exchange for the privilege of residing and working in this beachfront paradise, lived in denial that we risk health and life-years every day to what the recent book Nuclear Roulette by Gar Smith, rightly calls "the most dangerous energy source on the planet." In our lifetimes, we may never sheath the sword of Damocles that hangs over us here—in the 4,000-plus tons of highly radioactive nuclear waste (produced by the plant, when it's active, at the rate of 500 pounds per day, and stockpiled a few miles from our doors) that no container, natural or manmade, can imprison indefinitely. What we can do is limit the existential threat of a Fukushima-style meltdown.
SONGS has been shuttered for a year. More than 700 workers there are slated for layoff. In towns around Orange County, homebuilders are offering full-featured homes that require no outside power. The time is right and ripe for closing SONGS for good—and turning our talent and treasure to advancing green power and diminishing greatly the frightening legacy we bequeath to our children and grandchildren.

The United States exported $4.3 billion in merchandise to Panama in 2009, up from $2.2 billion in 2005. That was a 99 percent increase over the 2005-09 period, well above the 17 percent increase in U.S. exports to the world. Panama was the 40th largest market for U.S goods in 2009, out of a total of 232 markets.
Eleven states exported $50 million or more in goods to Panama in 2009. Eight of these states exported goods worth more than $100 million.
Florida and Texas were the top state exporters to Panama in 2009. Florida recorded merchandise exports of $960 million to Panama, while Texas recorded shipments of $918 million. Together, these two states accounted for 44 percent of total U.S. goods exported to Panama in 2009.
Other states that posted significant export totals to Panama in 2009 were Mississippi ($419 million), Louisiana ($376 million), California ($229 million), Georgia ($146 million), Washington ($136 million), New Jersey ($103 million), New York ($92 million), and Illinois ($86 million).
Forty-one of the states increased their merchandise exports to Panama from 2005 to 2009. Florida recorded the largest dollar increase, boosting shipments to Panama by $535 million—from $425 million in 2005 to $960 million in 2009. Other states with noteworthy increases in export value to Panama over the 2005-09 period were Texas (up $487 million), Mississippi (up $350 million), Louisiana (up $213 million), and Washington (up $111 million).
Manufactured goods made up 91 percent of U.S. merchandise exports to Panama in 2009. Petroleum and coal products was the largest manufactured export category, with $1.5 billion, or 35 percent of total U.S. shipments of merchandise. Other significant manufactured export categories were aerospace products and parts ($238 million); communications equipment ($146 million); computer equipment ($113 million); soaps and cleaning products ($113 million); and motor vehicles ($113 million).
The United States also exported significant amounts of unprocessed agricultural commodities to Panama in 2008. Shipments of unprocessed oilseeds and grains totaled $121 million, accounting for 3 percent of total U.S. exports to Panama.
In dollar terms, the leading growth category among manufactured exports to Panama was petroleum and coal products. Export shipments of these products grew $934 million during the 2005-09 period, growing from $560 million to $1.5 billion. Other manufactured export categories that registered large dollar growth during this period were communications equipment (up $93 million); aerospace products and parts (up $83 million); agricultural and construction machinery (up $75 million); and basic chemicals (up $66 million).
In percentage terms, the fastest-growing categories among U.S. manufactured exports to Panama were iron, steel and ferroalloy; steel products and purchased steel; railroad rolling stock; crowns, closures, seals and other packing accessories; and other fabricated metal products. All of these rose by more than 330 percent from 2005 to 2009.
A total of 7,600 U.S. companies exported merchandise to Panama in 2007 (the latest year for which data are available). Of those, 6,289 (83 percent) were small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), with fewer than 500 employees.
In 2007, U.S. SMEs exported $1.1 billion in merchandise to Panama. This represented 33 percent of total known U.S. exports to Panama, above the 30 percent SME share of U.S. exports to the world.

Caution: The Origin of Movement series allocates exports to states based on transportation origin, i.e., the state from which goods began their journey to the port (or other point of exit) from the United States. The transportation origin of exports is not always the same as the location where the goods were produced. Consequently, conclusions about "export production" in a state should not be made solely on the basis of the Origin of Movement state export figures.

So far so good. Bring on the second length of tube:
Moving with panther-like speed before the pit walls collapsed, we threw in a load more stone to surround the first two tube sections...
...then mounted the final tube section before sticking plastic sheeting on top of the stone fill:
Said stone fill acts as an external "reservoir" into which water can flow freely, while the plastic sheet stops backfill soil leaching down. Reg reader well experts are welcome to take issue with Ramon's methodology here, but he's the bloke who's dug more of these than you can shake a divining rod at.
With the Sun having passed the yardarm, all that remained was to fill the hole...
...tidy up a bit...
...and lay some concrete as a base for the brickwork which will eventually finish the job and prevent dogs/children/distracted journalists from plunging head-first into the abyss:
All in all, a profound, earth-moving experience, and the perfect antidote to the internet. Six hours of hard graft, heavy machinery, concrete tubes and stone followed by, naturally, lashings and lashings of ice-cold beer. Cheers. ®
I'm extremely chuffed to report that after a couple of days, the well had two metres of water in it - an impressive result in the middle of a serious drought.
Re: Not even a hard-hat ?
My parents' well is over 150m. deep and was built using the same kind of kit oil companies use to drill their wells on land, so this was an interesting read. (My folks' well is so deep that the lights dim noticeably when the pump is running.)
As for the hard-hats and hi-vis vests... this is Spain, for Cliff's sake! It's not a nation particularly prone to dull, grey, overcast days, lashings and lashing of rain, and muddy worksites. Anyone who thinks one size fits all when it comes to safety needs their head examined.
Exactly what is it the hard-hat would have protected them from? Most of the digging was done by a bloke in a big excavator while the others were standing back (and, presumably, taking the photos). The excavator's driver is already sitting in a cabin that provides protection. Anything that can crush that isn't going to be stopped by a bit of cheap plastic sitting on the guy's head and making him drip with sweat.
Once the hole was dug, the tubes were lifted into place. That's the only time when a hard-hat might have actually come in useful, but you don't need to lift those rings up high into the air: they only need to be clear of the ground while travelling towards the hole. Anyone who can't see a great big lump of concrete travelling level with their bollocks over such a short distance is already a health and safety hazard in their own right and shouldn't be allowed out without a trained guide dog.
Besides, a bit of ABS plastic strapped to your head is unlikely to be much use against a 1m. concrete ring travelling through the air towards your noggin. Hard-hats were invented for building sites were you might get hit on the nut by a passing brick, wrench, or other small items. Drop a fucking concrete slab on someone with a hard-hat and you'll find the hard-hat won't have been much help.
Standing in a 9-foot hole MAY run the risk of a cave-in, but that also depends on the area's geology and certainly isn't a given. If you were to try digging a well like that in, say, Southwark, or Borough, (which are mostly built on swamp), you'd have had to brace the sides first to stop the mud and slime from oozing back into the hole. If your ground is mostly stone or rock, you'd likely have to dig very, very badly, or quite a bit further down, for a cave-in to be a statistically significant risk. It's rock; people used to live in caves carved right out of the stuff!
Hi-vis vests also only make sense where visibility is a frequent problem. If you were digging a well in the middle of a motorway, sure, you'd want something nice, bright, shiny and very, very hard to miss while doing so. But building a 9-foot well in less than a day, in broad daylight, under a burning sun? Not so much.
A few years ago, I was berated for not wearing steel-capped boots. This would have made a lot more sense if the work site didn't consist entirely of open, muddy trenches for foundations. I was working as a land surveyor's assistant and there was literally no construction at all yet: just holes in the ground. There was some big digging equipment, but (a) I'm not blind, (b) I'm not deaf either, and (c) I'm having a hard time working out what, exactly, some thin steel in the toes of my boots would have done had a JCB decided to drive over them, because there was literally sod all else that posed any kind of risk to me.
And, yes, I had the high-vis vest and hard-hat on. But it's bloody hard to justify buying a brand new pair of steel-capped boots for my large feet—size 14—for just a couple of day's work.
The UK's H&S culture is fundamentally built on the premise of insulting our intelligence and common sense.
Most people are NOT interested in killing themselves. Give newbies a lecture on the potential hazards and risks, yes, but stop wasting time attempting to create a 100% risk-free planet. It's not possible, it's not efficient, and it sucks all the fun out of life.
Re: Picture 6, the man in the hole.
You'll find that Health and Safety regs over here in Spain are somewhat different, to say the least.
Every 23rd June they have a festival called Noche de San Juan, which involves a bonfire, fireworks and general cavorting on the beach (at least where I live) into the early hours. Separating us from said fire-related entertainment is a mere strip of red and white barrier tape.
In previous years there have been no problems. However this year, the firework launching tube thing (I'm no expert) fell over, with the result that fireworks were being launched horizontally across the beach. In fact I got hit in the back of the neck by one of them. Once righted, the display continued and there was no permanent damage thankfully! Later on, people dance through the cinders of the bonfire.
Would I change any of it? No way. I can't imagine the same fun being had whilst stood hundreds of metres away from the display.
Meanwhile, back on topic, good work guys!
My dad dug his own well on his farm, with a spade. None of this borrowing a mate's JCB. Kids of today eh?

A fantastic and blindingly original story line like nothing you have seen before, the Nazis are back as the major villains who plan to destroy the earth, the effects are spot on and very cool with giant Nazi battle ships and moon bases and flying saucers, the cast is very good too and the costumes are great, this movie oozes so much cool its unbelievable, this is sure to be a cult classic in no time, it may not be everyones cup of tea so make sure you know what your getting into, make sure you check this out money well spent!! Gem of a movie!!
1 Complete and utter rubbish!bellydancer | 29/05/2012 | See all bellydancer's reviews (20)I knew when I purchased this movie it was not going to be a classic so my expectations were not high to begin with. However, I did expect something along the lines of 'starship troopers', a good well acted 'B' movie yet entertaining yarn.. well can can I say? bad script, bad acting, bad story, bad jokes, infact bad everything! Where as 'starship troopers' has become a cult classic this film will drop off the radar like a led zepplin. There is nothing good I can think of to say about this movie. the first review had it spot on. the trailer lead me to expect something completely different.. after 10min I found myself getting bored and frustrated and angry that I spent money on this drivel! Avoid at all costs or prepere to be dissapointed!
3 (Suzuki) Nazi1Suzuki1 | 14/09/2012 | See all 1Suzuki1's reviews (11)This is one of those film where anything can come out of the woodwork, its funny, absurd and takes the mickie out of every character in the film. I think thats why I enjoyed it, if you like to see everyone make a fool of there careers as politicians,military officers, soldiers,lovers,this is for you appsalutely bonkers.Have a laugh......
1 DreadfulAllyboyrx7 | 15/06/2012 | See all Allyboyrx7's reviews (1)Easily in the top 5 worst films ever made, a total disappointment in every aspect. would have given it 0 stars if i could. Avoid this film

Nothing like waking up and the sun is shining. You just have a feeling that its gonna be a good day Today was definately that for me. Started it with a long workout at the gym, its amazing how it makes your feel after your done working out. Theres nothing like it. After the workout I got a round in of Disc Golf at Machmuller park in Weston. I like this course a little bit better because theres no water so you dont lose any discs. Trust me ive lost quite a few discs at memorial park in Wausau, if your gonna play that course you better have discs that float. If you've never played disc golf, id say try it out this weekend. Discs are only around 15 bucks and its free to play, you cant beat the price. I think these guys were having a little too much fun, on the course, check out this disc golf video!
Classic song too, hope you enjoy it, everyone have a great night!!

AP - Yemeni troops killed seven al-Qaeda-linked militants including an Iranian, a Pakistani and two Somali nationals in the latest fighting in a turbulent southern province, a security official said Wednesday.
The official said the seven were killed when the army shelled the headquarters of the local government and the offices of the internal security agency in Zinjibar, provincial capital of Abyan. Zinjibar has been held by the militants since May.

Paper inspiration
When designer Jon Karlsson was at a factory in China to see samples of a new lamp, a group stood around the prototype waiting for his feedback. Except Jon wasn't looking at the sample. He was on a spontaneous factory tour and had wandered into a room filled with paper. Feeling inspired, he played with the paper, making a new lamp shade that became VARMLUFT.

CHESTER - People living in the vicinity of U.S. Route 30 between Rodgers Road and Veterans Boulevard in Chester were treated to a fantastic fireworks display late Saturday night, when flames swept through a display tent filled with fireworks in the parking lot of Shorty's Place.
Units from the Lawrenceville Volunteer Fire Department were notified at 10:26 p.m. and arrived at the scene eight minutes later, according to Assistant Fire Chief Jeremy Ober, with firefighters bringing the blaze under control about an hour later. Police cruisers had arrived at the scene beforehand and blocked off the road leading to Shorty's in both directions. No injuries were reported.
Ober said the tent had been erected early Saturday morning and, according to the owner, was stocked with an estimated $50,000 worth of fireworks to be sold in anticipation of the upcoming July 4 holiday.
"He told me it hadn't even been 24 hours since they had been operational," Ober said.
Rick Boyer, who lives behind Shorty's on Braddock Lane, said he began hearing the sound of fireworks at around 10 p.m., and assumed that someone was setting them off down Route 30. After emerging from his home, he saw rockets shooting in random directions and realized something was wrong.
"They came buzzing by, through these trees," he said, pointing at his yard. "Next thing I know, they're shooting across the road with cars coming up through there."
With the rockets getting too close, Boyer said he and his girlfriend watched the remainder of the incident from inside the safety of his trailer.
"It really lit up down there," he said.
According to Ober, there was a man working in the tent looking after the fireworks, but that the incident had left him in a state of shock, though otherwise unhurt.
"He really didn't have a lot he could say at that time," Ober stated.
He said Shorty's employees had attempted to contain the blaze with fire extinguishers, but made no progress.
As of Sunday night, there was no indication of a cause. Ober said State Fire Marshal Larry Flowers would be on hand Monday morning to assist the department with its investigation.

I recently stopped by Calvin's Market at Bocage to interview owner Calvin Lindsly for an upcoming story on independent grocers for the Baton Rouge Business Report. As we stood at the front of the store talking about the supermarket's distinct identity and its staying power in a competitive market, four of five customers in the check out queues were leaving with tubs of Calvin's signature chicken salad.
"I make 400-450 pounds of that stuff a day," Lindsly told me. Indeed, the characteristically smooth dish has been one of the store's defining features, even before longtime employee Lindsly bought it 16 years ago. Blended fine and highly spreadable, this is a moist, unadulterated version that goes down like pabulum and has been extolled by generations of shoppers.
Among summer's emblematic foods, chicken salad ranks right up there with watermelon and barbecue. It's cool and creamy. It pairs well with fresh fruit and crunchy veggies. It's the foundation of Sunday lunches, girlie showers and beach trips. Attended by a sleeve of Saltine crackers, it's the perfect over-the-sink late night snack. Its characteristic binder of mayo makes it rich and fatty, but it still manages a 'light' reputation. Calories be damned, it's nice to find a container waiting in the 'fridge after a long, hot day.
Lindsly told me that while his chicken salad is popular because of its enduring simplicity, plenty of customers use it as a base, and snazz it up with their own ingredients. They add cranberries, walnuts, hunks of celery, curry powder, fresh tarragon or basil. They stuff it in avocados or tomatoes. They serve it on discs of sliced, toasted baguette or make po'boys. "One guy tells me he adds more mayo—if you can believe that—and sweet pickles," says Lindsly. "I'd like to start a cookbook that asks 'what do you do with my chicken salad.'"
He likes it with potato chips.

Bad Guys, Good Eats! Pop-Up Dinner at Restaurant IPO
Chef and 225 contributor Jay D. Ducote and Chef Chris Wadsworth hosted the Bad Guys, Good Eats! dinner at Restaurant IPO Wednesday night. The dinner was themed around famous movie villains, pairing cocktails and ales with plates of food resembling famous baddies like The Joker, Lord Voldemort, Hannibal Lector, and many others. The highlights of the night were the three middle courses—a black bean soup laced with blood sausage to signify Lord Voldemort, a brace of coneys on black eyed peas resembling Sauron, and lamb medallions atop a fava bean puree to pay homage to the famous favorite of Hannibal Lector.

This shiny, mirrored metallic cardstock from Bazzill Basics is sure to add a unique touch to all of your scrapbook layouts and paper pr... Full Description & Details.
This paper is just what you would think from the name. It's a medium weight card stock, and very gold and shiney. You can almost use it as a mirror. I'm using it as accent on Christmas cards. It would look great in a wedding or anniversary page layout.
I love shiny, glitzy cardstock--and this is the shiniest! Its only flaw is that it scratches easily; am working on strategies to keep it as gorgeous as when it first arrives.
I love this gold foil cardstock. I will be buying some more when I run out.
Very good quality paper

AHAM Issues Guidelines for Smart Grid at Climate-Change Conference
17512 Mon, 12/14/2009 - 1:19pm
COPENHAGEN–The Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers has issued a white paper detailing guidelines to encourage the use of smart grid-enabled home appliances, to coincide with the United Nations Climate Change Conference taking place here.
Titled "The Home Appliance Industry's Principles & Requirements for Achieving a Widely Accepted Smart Grid," the publication sets out three requirements for a smart grid:
1. The development of uniform pricing- and usage-information standards regarding residential electricity, that would provide a harmonized way of communicating local rate and timing information.
2. Open and limited standards and protocols for communications with "smart" appliances, which would ensure a national marketplace allowing such appliances to be used anywhere in the country.
3. The ability for consumers to control and monitor their own appliances, rather than a utility.
An AHAM statement said smart appliances would promote energy efficiency and environmental protection by reducing peak energy demand and making the power grid more efficient. They would also save consumers money through reduced electric bills, and help reduce the need for additional power plants.

Not another youngster's tribute band to one of the past iconic bands but 3 former actual Kinks members (Mick Avory, Ian Gibbons & John Dalton), plus Dave Clark on guitar & lead vocal (covering the great Davies Brothers positions on stage). Dave has worked with The Beach Boys & Noel Redding Band in the past and together with actual "Kast off Kinks" they deliver a massive compliment to the music of the Kinks. As for the bands motives for doing this, they just want to keep the Kinks fantastic music playing live and that comes across very nicely thank you. Any Kinks fan will not be let down by this show. It is a tribute with a difference, these former Kinks members have a total of 70 years combined Kinks playing history, no costumes or wigs needed or wanted. All those fantastic Kinks hits, "You Really Got Me", "Sunny Afternoon", "Waterloo Sunset", "All Day & All of the Night", "Dedicated Follower of!
Fashion", "Lola", " Come Dancing", "Tired of Waiting", "Apeman", "Victoria", "Days" and many more....... plus a few recognizable Ray Davies songs successfully covered by other bands.
The Kinks sadly disbanded in 1996 when the Davies bros finally went their separate ways. However, this is possibly the closest you will get these days to feeling the vibe they put out for decades and in an intimate venue too. (Sussex Hall, Downstairs at White Rock Theatre)

HISTORIC TURKEY: BRIDGE OF THE AGES offers an unforgettable study abroad experience. The objective of the program is to introduce students to the cultural, institutional and historic diversity of the Eastern Mediterranean and Black Sea worlds through a 3 week tour of the Republic of Turkey. The course will bridge the disciplinary borders that otherwise separate students who study Ancient, Byzantine, Armenian, Georgian, Early Islamic, Ottoman and Modern Middle Eastern societies and their histories. This course should also be of interest to Fine Arts students as there will be several trips to observe performances by various regional and periodic dance groups, examples of different musical styles, as well as visits to various monuments that demonstrate a variety of decorative styles/motifs unique to the region. From attending a Sufi performance to the Arab and Kurdish societies in the Southeast, to the fusion of Rum and Ottoman music in the Rembetika form as still performed in Istanbul's "meza" neighborhoods, those attending this Maymester course will appreciate the full scope of cultural expression found in historic Turkey. To help appreciate the often subtle differences in these regional/temporal styles, several discussions/lectures will be led by experts in their respective periodic fields.
Highlights of the program are provided below. The university reserves the right to alter travel and other arrangements if required by circumstances.
Students will:
• Tour Istanbul (Constantinople), including ancient Byzantine and Ottoman-era neighbor hoods.
• Tour Trabzon, Sivas, Mardin, Diyarbakir, Bursa, and Konya.
• Visit famous monasteries and pre-Ottoman mosques.
• Tour overland through some of the most stunning scenery in the world, passing through the Kackar Mountains, deep river valleys all with views of famous mountains that include Mt. Ararat.
• Visit some of the world's greatest museum collections of antiquities and medieval and Ottoman-era Islamic art.
• Explore the culinary diversity of Turkey, tasting foods that are unique to the numerous regions through which this program will travel.
• Witness the performance of Sufi sects, including those known the world over as the "Whirling Dervishes".
Students interested in applying should find this program's listing at http://www.studyabroad.gsu.edu/index.cfm?FuseAction=Programs.ViewProgram&Program_ID=20300
and begin an online application.
February 15, 2013.
Because program size is limited, early application is strongly advised. Individual interviews may be scheduled with students upon receipt of application.
The program is offered to all students at the undergraduate and graduate level. Program size is limited and participation is contingent upon approval by the Program Director. No knowledge of Turkish is required.
International students at Georgia State who hold F-1 visas must contact the Office of International Students and Scholar Services at 404/413-2070 to discuss possible implications of study abroad for their immigration status.
Students wishing to receive academic credit may register for MES 4590 (Special Studies Seminar) or HIST 4890 (Topics in World History). Course credit will be four semester hours. All participants will attend an orientation session at GSU (date to be determined). Students from other institutions should follow their institution's regulations concerning transfer credits.
Participants will stay in comfortable double-occupancy hotels (3-4 stars) and on occasion, unique settings in old Caravanserais or inside mountain caves in Cappadocia. Disability Accommodations Students with documented disabilities who may need accommodations during their study abroad experience should discuss these needs with the Program Director and the Office of Disabilities at the time of application.
Program cost may vary at any time according to currency fluctuations and changing travel arrangements.

Become The Banks! ;)
Hi Occupy The Banks
My name is TJ, and I am working with a team on a research project titled "Occupy Media Survey!" at Uppsala University in Sweden. The leading professor on the project, Christian Fuchs is also the chair of the European Sociological Association's Research Network for Communications and Media Research.
The project attempts to answer some of the following questions: What is the role of social media like Occupii, Facebook and Twitter in occupations and protests? Was the Arab spring a "Twitter and Facebook" revolution? How does the Occupy movement use social media? Is it a social media movement or something different?
Therefore we are conducting the OccupyMedia! Survey. We invite some users of Occupii to participate in it, and would be extremely happy if you could take 15 minutes time in order to help us find out what role social media play in contemporary protests:
If you have any more questions about the survey, please contact us. If you do not find time to participate, then please simply ignore our request and excuse any inconvenience. Thanks a lot!
Further information about social media research and the background of this survey can be found in this article:
If you find this survey to be useful, then it would be great if you can also tell others about it.
Best, TJ with Occupy Media Survey

With the fantastic news that a new SelfBoot Inducer is being worked on by one of the Dreamcast Scenes Finest BurnerO, this brings me to a discussion that all Dreamcast Scene site ops and fans must join in.[br][br]The Dreamcast scene covers a massive amount of Homebrew, Emulation and Development downloads and maybe its now time to have an industry standard and i believe that the new Selfboot Inducer is the way forward and when each sites offers downloads we offer in Plain and SBI file flavours only.[br][br]That way newcomers and oldtimers can burn new homebrew and we as site ops, webmasters etc only have to worry about 2 types of files.[br][br]For the fans it means less wasting of CDS because you can put multiple items on one cd.[br][br]Any thoughts on the matter, as webmaster of here with LyonHrt we want to make this site the best but the scene will be better when people listen.

H3 Ultimate HID Conversion kit rated at 55W giving 400% more power and light on the road. Designed by and exclusive to HIDS4U to work with modern vehicles with advanced ECU systems and CAN bus wiring.
The HIDS4U Ultimate kit is the best quality H3 HID Conversion Kit on the market and is exclusive to HIDS4U Ltd. As most people will know we develop all our own kits with specialist manufacturers and don't buy the cheap Chinese kits that other sellers offer. This kit is made with the highest quality components, including Philips, and is assembled for us in Korea. We have named it the H3 Ultimate HID kit as it has been specifically designed for new (2002 on) cars that have sophisticated electronic systems (Can-Bus). In many cases these systems are programmed by the manufacturer not to work with the standard HID Conversion kits. This is now the forth generation since its release in 2006 and the latest generation ballasts contain an integrated ballast for a neater installation and draw even less power than the earlier generations. We can barely keep up with demand for these kits as they are not mass produced. Each kit is manually inspected and tested prior to leaving the factory! The Ultimate kit is a Quality HID conversion kit that will not damage any of the cars electronic systems due to its unique soft start and it will fool the cars on board computer to overcome the pre-programmed anti-HID conversion settings made by the manufacturers. The quality of the kit speaks for itself when you see the components and we have had almost no component failures with quality matching OEM factory fitted HID Xenon. The Ultimate is light years ahead of the competition and all our knowledge and tricks are programmed into the special microprocessor inside the digital ballast. No bulb Alarms, No shutting down, No interference and no damage to the car! Unlike the cheaper kits that can be made to work with some of the newer cars, we strongly recommend this kit over such kits that rely on add-on solutions. The Ultimate ballasts do not rely on additional components such as resistors and capacitors, which get hot and can cause other problems and interference with the car after relatively short periods of time. A new ECU for most cars can cost from 350 to 1000 GBP! The Ultimate kit is a wise choice for any car where you want to simply fit and forget, and it's a must for the following cars: Audi - A4, A6 2005 on Audi - A3 2002 on (can only be used in conjunction with a relay harness- contact us for details) BMW – All 2002 onwards and also 3, 5, 7 Series 1998 onwards. Jaguars – All S Types and post 2002 other models Landrover – Post 2003 Ranger Rover, Freelander and Discovery Mercedes - Post 2002 all models inc A, B, C, E and G Class Porsche - Cayanne, Cayman, Boxster Peugeot 407 (we recommend using with a relay as it can affect wiper motor- contact us for details) Saab - 9-3, 9-5 2000 on Skoda – 2005 onwards Seat - 2005 onwards Vauxhall - Vectra C, Signum, Corsa C, Mk 5 Astra Volkswagen - 2004 onwards Volvos – 2002 onwards Also as with all our HID kits, we offer a 2 year warranty on the Ultimate kit. This covers all parts (ballasts and bulbs).

Mother's Day Sessions PART 1
May 14
What fun we had at The Essex Resort and Spa on Sunday! And the best part is, I get to do it again this Saturday!
Here's a few of my favorites so far…
Jeff surprised his wife with the session a few days before! At the last moment before I left for the Essex, I happened to grab a blue and white blanket that match their outfits perfectly. How's that for luck? All these guys did is laugh the WHOLE time! Such a joy to photograph.I was lucky enough to photograph Jen's wedding two summers ago. I cannot believe what a lovely young lady her daughter has become. The two of them make a stunning pair!
If you are feeling like you missed out, you're in luck! I have a few spots left for Saturday (May 18th,2013). Get in touch to book your spot!
What Should I Wear?
May 02
The most common question, and a great one! So here's a few tips to get you started;
• Dress For the Location, Season & Type of Session
After you pick you location, is it formal or casual? Select seasonal clothing that complements you as well as the place you are in. In other words, you won't wear furry boots and coat to the beach for a casual summer family session. Bare feet, rolled up pants with coordinating tops or a fun skirt is more likely. And if you pick a beautiful green field , stay away from wearing too much green. You'll blend right into the background.
• Solids Over Prints
If I had to pick, 9 times out of 10 I'll choose the solid color. Busy prints and stripes tend to be distracting and less body flattering than a solid color.
• Don't Be Matchy – Matchy
It's ok to wear colors from the same family. But don't put every on in a matching red polo shirt. Mix it up! Wear your favorite colorful scarf and use the colors in the scarf to tie your group's outfits together. Pick three colors that go well together ,everyone likes and wear different combinations of them. The days of everyone in the white button-down and khaki pants are gone. Be more creative. I know you can do it! And if your just not sure, I'll be happy to help!
•Be Comfortable, Be Yourself
Probably the most important! Wear something comfortable that reflects your personal style. If you feel beautiful, you'll look beautiful. If you're child doesn't like the shirt he's wearing, he'll probably be fussing in every photo and eventually in tantrum position. Let's try to avoid that, shall we? If you're uncomfortable in your skinny jeans which no one in real life looks good in you won't feel hot and you'll probably be making that weird "I'm uncomfortable" face. Why on earth would you do that to yourself?
• Have Fun!
If you look like you're having fun, you probably are! And you'll be glad that I'm there taking pictures to remember the moment.
Still stuck? Go though your favorite stores ads and use what they are wearing for inspiration!
Here's some visual inspiration;
Ah, yellow! The color of happiness, of light and sunshine. Yellow is a wonderful color to wear in outdoor, buttery natural-light shoots, and looks amazing on camera! Although yellow can be difficult for some to wear because of its tendency to wash out skin tones, patterns with yellow or a single yellow garment in an otherwise neutral palette adds wonders to your images. Adding yellow florals, jewelry, or accents also helps to make your photos go "POP!". I love yellow! In ancient times, the creation of purple dye was an incredibly lengthy, expensive process. Purple garments became a symbol of wealth and nobility, even royalty; and were sought after world-round. Although violet is now far easier to come by, the color is still associated with its royal roots. A violet-themed engagement outfit exudes playful sophistication and looks great on camera! Small accents of purple, such as scarves and accessories, can also liven up an otherwise muted palette! Orange is a tangy, optimistic color that demands attention! Strong, joyful, and happy, adding orange to your session is always a hit on camera. Couples with a more extroverted nature might enjoy orange-themed outfits. Orange also looks wonderful in urban settings, such as against concrete, brick, and stone. Nothing says fresh and new quite like the color green! Green comes in a wide array of shades, ranging from a yellowish, pea-like hue all the way to turquoise! Green looks beautiful combined with earth tones, and therefore makes a wonderful choice for outdoor shoots and backdrops of wood and stone. Even small accents of green, such as jewelry, scarves, or shoes, look wonderful with whites and tans.
Have fun & see you soon!

The first in the Literary Themes for Students Collection, this set, designed very much with the curriculum-based standards and approaches to studying literature in mind, examines the overriding themes found in literature. This approach particularly helps students build critical thinking skills by making connections between thematically-similar works of literature, as well as providing a more global perspective by comparing and contrasting works from around the world. Beyond outlining the general treatment of the theme in American, British and world literature, the set profiles authors and highlights more than 50 major works centered around the theme. Also included are an extended list of works in all genres and media (fine art, dance, film, etc.) related to the theme as well as subject and title indexes.

Netflix, the Company the Pros Love to Hate
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- If you want to start a fight among traders just say one word: Netflix (NFLX).
This is still true one year after Netflix CEO Reed Hasting's huge mistake, the attempt to raise prices by splitting its DVD service off from its streaming offering, as Business Week reported. Hastings knew streaming was the future, and it still is.
At the heart of the dispute over Netflix is a fundamental question: Can a company that resells others' content survive?
I don't know. Can TV networks survive? Satellite networks? Cable? All these companies are in the business of reselling studio content, and despite their occasional spats with suppliers, like the one now playing out between DIRECTV (DTV) and Viacom (VIA.B) (discussed in this MarketWatch blog), most do quite well.
This is thanks to a 100-year old truth of the movie business. The money's in the theaters. True, the nature of the theater changes, but the place to look for profits from movies has always been in their exhibition, not their production. Netflix proved this by delivering 1 billion hours of streaming in June, according to Bloomberg. That's business the studios can't turn down. Netflix has spent the last year trying to build the kind of sales infrastructure in streaming it had in DVDs. It's backing a plan called OpenConnect, explained at the Netflix blog, that lets it cache content closer to customers, cutting out the long-distance charges. In business terms, it's a cloud, an effort to match the infrastructure that Amazon.com (AMZN) and Google's (GOOG) YouTube have. But it also has a political component. When cable operators like Comcast (CMCSA) call Netflix a "free rider" and try to charge consumers for bringing its product to them (in competition with their own offerings) the company can claim, quite rightly, that the costs are equivalent. Still, the naysayers say nay. They claim that Amazon is going to kill Netflix. (No, Amazon streams products one at a time, and its Prime service members get very little for free.) They say Apple (AAPL) is going to kill Netflix. (Same thing, and iTunes doesn't have Netflix's caching.)Select the service that is right for you!

Agreed, you can't beat the real thing. However, buildings aren't always available so we built a roof simulator with the ability to change the pitch to a 12/12. The size of the work platform is about 20' by 16' and we have two framed out areas so we can drop-in pre-made panels of sheating with roofing felt and shingles. This way we reduce the down time to replace the roofing materials. A few drywall screws hold in the panels and after the cuts are made, pull the screws and drop in a new panel. The prop is large enough that we can also train on cutting from the bucket (tower ladder bucket). This had turned out to be an excellent training prop.

Meet hundreds of basset hounds and basset lovers, indoor air conditioned/heated comfort, and raise money for the hounds! Come to this years event:
Spring Basset Blast
April 27, 2013 Noon to 4PM
ABC's 2013 event will be held in Rochester again this year!
ABC's Basset Hound Rescue's Spring Blast plays a critical role in putting animal rescue efforts into the public spotlight and is one of our largest fundraising events of the year. So, come out with ABC and help support this great breed…there will be games, prizes, shopping and of course, food! All occurring on Saturday April 27, 2013.
Spend an enjoyable day with friends, family and basset hounds rain or shine, hot or cold. There is plenty of onsite parking with a short walk, like going to the mall, to get to the door. Many local hotels to rest your tired body after the days events.
The world famous & largest online basset e-tailer, the Slobber Shoppe will be on hand peddling distinct basset wares for fellow hound lovers. Last year ABC had about 200 hounds…. this year ABC is looking for over 300 hounds to be a part of history… at the largest indoor basset event possible in the northeast.
The average cost to ABC in 2012 was $500 per dog. Last year alone, ABC spent almost $40,000 in vet bills!!!!
It's a lot of fun and exciting to see hundreds of basset hounds all in one place participating in fun and games. However, let's not forget what allows us to continue to rescue these homeless and unwanted hounds….YOU!! All of YOU who have volunteered your time, opened up your home for a foster, adopted a dog, and given financial support; this is what allows us to be successful!! With your generosity, ABC has rescued, vetted and adopted out over 700 basset hounds since January 2001…. all bills paid!
We are an all volunteer, 501(c)3 non-profit organization. 100% of the money received goes directly to the care of New York State's homeless Hounds. Visit us at www.nybasset.org for more information.

The Muskego Parks and Recreation Board on Monday turned down a resident's request for a 10-foot easement that would allow him to keep using a strip of parkland to gain access to his garage.
James Mortle is worried that at some point, the city might not allow him to use the strip of land - a remnant of what was once Park Drive, the stub of a street that goes down to Little Muskego Lake - and he would then have no legal way of making use of his existing garage.
The unusual driveway arrangement existed when he bought his home more than a dozen years ago.
While the park board wasn't interested in granting an easement because it would tie the city's hands, it was open to an agreement that could be renewed annually. But Mortle said that would put him in a worse position than he is right now with the prescriptive easement.
His attorney and the city attorney will sort out whether the prescriptive easement exists or if he needs any additional protection to maintain his garage access. If so, they will likely draft an agreement that would come back to the city.

RGIII is a new Redskins captain
Robert Griffin III is a rookie.
A good one at that.
The Washington Redskins are also well aware of his maturity and what he means to the Redskins as a team. Today, the Redskins announced that the rookie quarterback is one of three new team captains.
It makes sense.
Let's not fool ourselves. The Redskins are a 3-6 football team. They are also a team that faces 5 NFC East Division games in their final seven games. At 3-6, the Redskins are not yet out of the chase for a playoff berth. With Giants at the top of the division at 6-4, riding a two game losing streak, the playoffs are still a shot for this team. It's a tough road ahead, but with that many division games left, including one against the Giants, the Redskins are in the hunt. Not a great shot, but a shot at least. m
That is precisely why it makes sense, coming out of the bye week, to name RGIII a team captain. He is energized and has made the statements of a leader. That is what the Redskins need. Real leadership. That is what RGIII has provided, even though just a rookie.
Let's also not fool ourselves on the value of RGIII to this team. The Redskins could easily be 1-9 without Robert Griffin III. Griffin has single handedly led the Redskins on scoring drives that sealed Washington wins. He has also been a mastermind at putting the Redskins in position to win several games, that turned out to be losses.
Let's not forget the the 31-28 loss to the Rams was a 28-23 lead late in the third quarter, fueled by a Griffin drive and a Griffin TD dash for seven yards. Yet, the Redskins defense failed to hold the lead. Let's not forget in the 38-31 loss tot he Bengals, Griffin rallied Washington back deep in the third quarter to knot the game up at 24-24. The Redskins defense allowed two TDs in the fourth quarter. Who can forget the improbable comeback against the Giants topped off by a 30 yard TD pass from Griffin to Santana Moss with just 1:32 left in the game. Yet, the Redskins secondary found away to let Victor Cruz open for a 77 yard TD reception just 19 seconds later.
Griffin has provided Washington the offensive spark they needed this season. He has rallied this offense on big time comebacks. He has led the Redskins offense to an 11th overall total offensive ranking. He has helped propel the Redskins ground game to second overall in the NFL in rushing, adding himself 529 yards rushing and second overall in the NFC with 6 rushing TDs. There is no question that this team would be far worse off without Griffin at the helm of the offense. His contribution to this team are undeniable.
Stats aside, Griffin has never given up on this season, to this very day. He has openly stated that the payoffs are a realistic goal, even after Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan commented about the remaining part of the season being set aside for 'evaluation". As Griffin entered the bye week, he was clear that it was a time to clear his head and come back hungrier than ever. He feels completely full of energy for the post bye week run.
Those kind of comments showed true leadership and depicted a rookie quarterback well beyond his years. That is why the Washington Redskins players voted for Robert Griffin III to be a new team captain. The player vote signified complete confidence in Griffin's leadership abilities and the players placed on Griffin as the person to lead this team over the final seven weeks. It was an official acknowledgement by the clubhouse that Robert Griffin III has the reigns of this team, rookie or not. It's called respect.
Griffin will be joined by fellow captains also voted by the team as a whole: DL Barry Cofield, DE Stephen Bowen, LT Trent Williams, LB London Fletcher, and LB Lorenzo Alexander.
In Robert we trust!
