Analyst says New BSD Releases won't win new customers
Specifically talking about OpenBSD and Dragonfly BSD.
http://www.v3.co.uk/v3-uk/news/20467...alyst-suggests |
Somehow I think this guy is thinking more about Solaris and Mac OS X Server, because there really is not much Commercial BSD UNIX systems anymore. Or maybe he is still running BSD/OS out of a closet?
I just don't see how the article can draw a BSD-related conclusion.
My Journal Thou shalt check the array bounds of all strings (indeed, all arrays), for surely where thou typest ``foo'' someone someday shall type ``supercalifragilisticexpialidocious''. |
The article quotes Al Gillen, an IDC analyst who is looking at enterprise adoption rates of server systems. I can't find fault with his general statement on the Unix marketplace, wherein he states that with the exception of Linux on x86-based platforms, all Unix and Unix-like systems use is contracting in the marketplace....if you count physical platforms, of course. I expect virtualization in the data center is a major factor in this particular view of the marketplace, assuming the count is of physical platforms.
Unfortunately the article is short, and has only a small quote, taken out of its context from with a presentation or white paper, or perhaps from the midst of a telephone conversation. I would tend to think the complete picture of the OS marketplace from Mr. Gillen, in its full context, would be more readily accepted. Disclaimer: Earlier in my career, I engaged with IDC analysts regularly. I both provided information for reports IDC published, and employed their analysts as consultants. I have never met Mr. Gillen, nor used his particular services.
OpenBSD LiveCDs/LiveDVDs |
I agree with the other posters. I know particularly with OpenBSD they aren't worried about attracting the masses but simply putting out a quality product. Ironically, if you look at the What's New for OpenBSD 4.9 there are a lot of major changes, such as the 64 cores in amd64 mentioned in the last post, multiprocessor support on hppa, and much more. In earlier releases you practically had to be a computer scientist to know what they were talking about in changelogs, but this is straightforward and the team did a great job.
http://www.openbsd.org/49.html By the way, a commercial vendor with OpenBSD support would be nice. |
Being as there are smaller vendors who provide commercial support, would they qualify as being an approved vendor or does vendor size matter? The Undeadly.org journal recently spotlighted a European-based OpenBSD solutions provider for example and here in the USA, iX Systems provide BSD Support as do various smaller consultancies/companies. Also does this tie into what is called PCI compliance or auditing? I'm just really curious about how this process works hence all the questions. regards |
1) Some IT organizations require an outside support organization for all components in their infrastructures, by policy. It is perceived as liability coverage in the event of severe problems. The jargon for this is "having a throat to choke."
To me, this has nothing to do with infrastructure quality, or the mitigation of risk to business functions. Instead, this policy provides management with the ability to assign fault outside the IT organization, which mitigates risk to management careers.2) Compliance to government regulation or industry standards, or infrastructure in support of a particular application may require specific and limited solutions, eliminating many options of free choice.
OpenBSD LiveCDs/LiveDVDs |
Just to add one of my favorite phrases. In U.S. "we must have a legal entity that we can sue in the case something goes wrong". Whom you are going to sue if things go wrong with OpenBSD? Theo, Bob or OpenBSD foundation? |

Hi buyers,
If you have been viewing my portfolio recently you will see I have raised prices on some of my items. And I suddenly had a dilemma.
My V___ge theme is currently at $35. I ended up not changing this in the end because all the fullscreen themes seem to be that price whether they are top sellers or shameless copies, even its definitely worth more than $35.
I basically want to know whether you would purchase theme at $45 if it provided the design and functionality you require, over a theme that almost does what you want but retails for $35.
So what comes first? Price or Functionality?
Thanks, George
For me personally it's functionality, because work is time. If something already works the way I need it to, then I'll be purchasing that one rather than spending time trying to get the other one to do what I need. Spending an extra $10 is worth it to save time and frustration in something I may not know how to accomplish.
Functionality for sure.
ThemeProvince said
...I basically want to know whether you would purchase theme at $45 if it provided the design and functionality you require, over a theme that almost does what you want but retails for $35. So what comes first? Price or Functionality?
I would purchase a theme if it was $45 or more provided that it has the design, functionality and good author support for 3 reasons:
- If it clearly outclasses the regular $35 theme in terms of value
- I don't mind the author earning more for making his theme truly 'premium'
- I don't mark-up the price I pay for themes when I charge clients. I have a standard base for my website work and I add the $35 to that figure. Even so, an additional $10 out of my pocket if I found a 'premium' theme after I quoted is no big deal.
Forgive me fellow buyers but functionality comes first, once it's there I'll buy it. I'd rather spend premium $ for a theme at Envato because I'm comfortable and confident in the ethics of this marketplace than anywhere else.
functionality for sure.

As more features you provide. As more you can charge. But keep an eye out for what the competition is offering. If you both provide the same features, the lower price wins.
In this design should not been taken into account since I believe the bulk of the sales come from professionals that in the end change the skin so it won't resemble the original TF item.

The Outaouais region at a glanceTerritory and main citiesEconomy and employment Portrait of immigration Services to immigrants offered by the Ministère Resources and interesting links Territory and main citiesThe Outaouais region is a vast territory located in the southwest corner of Québec. Bordered to the northwest by Abitibi-Témiscamingue, to the east by the Laurentians and to the southwest by Ontario, it is located along rivière des Outaouais, which forms a natural border between Ontario and Québec. The quality of life in the region is just one of the advantages that make the Outaouais a wise choice of places to live. Information on the territory and its subregions
Economy and employmentThe Outaouais' dynamic urban life blends harmoniously with its open expanses that have been conserved in their natural state or developed for farming and recreational activities. Renowned for its quality of life, the Outaouais is also a major high-tech hub—one of the fastest growing in North America. Strategically located, the region offers easy and fast access to all major business centres. Information on the economy, employment, services and cultural lifeBusiness start-up supportPortrait of immigrationThe Outaouais is proud of the contribution immigrants make to its economic, social and cultural development.

We did a write up earlier this morning about Naoki Yoshida at Japan Expo 2012, based on information released from a website called Final Fantasy World. Well, someone has been kind enough to provide a video of Yoshida's Final Fantasy XIV presentation on Youtube. We've got the video right here, so if you were looking for the full experience and you know some French, you're in for a treat.
There was actually a trailer shown at the event, which you can watch in it's entirety in the video. The trailer seemed to show off mostly older content, so it's doubtful that this has anything to do with the trailer Yoshida originally planned to show at E3. Take a look at the video yourself for lots of media and images on a large video screen and guys talking in French. Of course, if anyone has any insight into the French language, don't be a square and let us know what they're saying in the comments!

This is a GREAT book about bullying where a new kid stands up to a bully by asking her to play! It also happens to be one of my students' favorite read alouds! I can't wait to tell them I met the author!!
and nobody said any different.
Nobody swung until Mean Jean swung.
Nobody kicked until Mean Jean kicked.
Nobody bounced until Mean Jean bounced.
If kids ever crossed her, she'd push 'em and smoosh 'em
lollapaloosh 'em, hammer 'em, slammer 'em
kitz and kajammer 'em.
Until a new kid came to school!
And as she said, she didn't want to just "tell" that Jean was mean, she wanted to "show" it! Great example for students when they are working on their own writing! Going from just saying, "Jean was mean," to showing it with lots of great details!
Estela's Swap
This is another sweet story about a girl who tries to sell her music box at a swap meet in order to earn money for Ballet Folklorico lessons. It is a great lesson on selflessness and generosity!!
The next two books were new to me! One of them I bought today, and the other one they didn't have so I ordered it online!

Francis and Jesus is the story of how the poor and humble St. Francis of Assisi gave away all to gain all, sharing in God's kingdom on Earth. Francis' life exemplifies what it means to be a genuine disciple of Jesus, walking in Christ's footsteps to show how ultimate truth is lived in small, unique ways. Franciscan Father Murray Bodo takes us on the journey with Francis, as we see his pain, his suffering, his dying to self. On that difficult road we are reminded that death to self creates new life in the freedom to love God wholeheartedly and revel in true joy.
©2012 Murray Bodo (P)2012 Franciscan Media
"In this lovely book, we can stand and walk in the light of perhaps two of the greatest spotlights the world has ever received, Jesus and Francis; and you will see that they create one bright beam of light, more than enough light to overcome any darkness." (Richard Rohr, author of "Breathing Under Water," from the foreword to Francis and Jesus)

STAGE TUBE: Interview and Behind-the-Scenes With Director Franþois Girard of Wagner's PARSIFAL at the Met
Back to the Articleby Stage Tube
Jonas Kaufmann will sing the title role in a new staging of Wagner's final opera, Parsifal, conducted by Daniele Gatti and directed by François Girard in his Met debut. BroadwayWorld has a behind-the-scenes interview with Director, Francois Girard. Check it out below. The new production of Wagner's transcendent masterpiece will open February 15 with an extraordinary cast of Wagnerian stars, including Katarina Dalayman as the mysterious Kundry; Peter Mattei in his role debut as Amfortas, the wounded King of the Knights of the Holy Grail; René Pape as the wise knight Gurnemanz; Evgeny Nikitin as the evil Klingsor; and Rúni Brattaberg in his Met debut as Titurel, Amfortas's father. The production team for Girard's staging includes set designer Michael Levine, costume designer Thibault Vancraenenbroeck, lighting designer David Finn, video designer Peter Flaherty, choreographer Carolyn Choa, and dramaturg Serge Lamothe. The Saturday, March 2 matinee performance of Parsifal will be transmitted worldwide as part of the Met's Live in HD series, which is now seen in more than 1,900 movie theaters in 64 countries around the world.
French Canadian director François Girard makes his Met debut with this staging of Parsifal, a co-production of the Met, the Canadian Opera Company, and the Opéra National de Lyon, where it premiered in early 2012. Girard's other opera productions include Kaija Saariaho's Emilie at Lyon and the Netherlands Opera; a double bill of Stravinsky's Oedipus Rex and Symphony of Psalms at the Edinburgh Festival and Canadian Opera Company; a double bill of Brecht and Weill's The Lindbergh Flight and The Seven Deadly Sins in Lyon and Edinburgh; and Wagner's Siegfried as part of a multi-director staging of Der Ring des Nibelungen at Canadian Opera Company. He has also written and directed four feature films: Cargo, Thirty Two Short Films About Glenn Gould, Silk, and the Academy Award-winning historical drama The Red Violin. |

Mamut acquires MYOB UK Business Division
(Oslo, 24 April 2008) The company today announces an agreement to acquire MYOB Business Division in the UK from MYOB Limited (ASX: MYO) for a cash payment of £1.7 million. MYOB is today among the five best known providers of business software solutions to UK small businesses.
MYOBs UK Business Division reached a turnover of £1.8 million in 2007 and has a total of 50,000 customers including 20,000 active customers using MYOB accounting software, retail software and payroll software. The acquisition also includes the DOSH brand name and product range. Mamut will continue to sell and support DOSH products aligned with Mamuts other product offerings in the UK.
This places Mamut in a strategic position to further improve its growth and position in the UK market. Furthermore, by combining MYOBs operations in the UK SME market and Mamuts broad product range, UK small and medium enterprises (SMEs) will benefit from an improved business and accounting software offering.
Mamuts Chief Executive Officer, Eilert Hanoa said, We are enthusiastic about the improved offering this acquisition gives to our new customers in the UK. The acquisition of MYOB Business Division is an important building block in the UK launch of Mamut One, our software and services offering, that is currently being introduced in markets across Europe.
The merged operation will consist of approximately 40 employees for the UK and Irish markets with the aim of offering a stronger and wider product range to UK SMEs.
MYOBs sale of the MYOB UK Business Division follows MYOBs recent sale of the UK and Irish Accounting division to Wolters Kluwer that was announced on April 1.
The settlement will be paid in two instalments, the first instalment will be paid at anticipated closure on the May 7th and the second will be paid in the fourth quarter 2008.

This exercise is the one I use personally in my own ascension work, as well being what I consider to be a key exercise. It is very effective and the most essential, and constant, step to take for a fast ascension journey. It is by all purposes, the foundation of ascension as well as a key component in the manifestation of our dreams into this 3D world. It also alleviates stress and anxiety.

Dear Pisgah Community,
Earlier this week, parent volunteers extraordinaire Barbara and Jim Brady opened their lovely home to more than 125 Leadership Circle supporters of the Annual Fund. The primary purpose of the evening was to thank these generous donors for their investment in our school's people and programs and to share our vision for the future. The Annual Fund is having a banner year. More than 165 Pisgah families – a 30% increase over last year – are now members of the Leadership Circle. We are closing in on claiming the $100,000 in AF Challenge funds. We need only 20 new members in the Leadership Circle to get to 100 donors by June 30 who have joined a higher gift club than last year. With your help, we can get there.
Why does the Annual Fund matter? Quite simply, it provides the resources necessary to fund excellence at Pisgah. Tuition alone does not cover the cost of a Pisgah education. If you believe in our core academic and spiritual mission, if you believe in dedicated teachers and how they shape young lives for the good, then I would ask you to support this fund, and if you can, help us to claim the $100,000 challenge. Wouldn't it be impressive to share that our parent participation in the AF was close to 100% this year?
Our Future
At the Brady's, I also shared that the Board and I are exploring if our broad community is ready to embark on a major fund raising effort to build a new Upper School building. Fund raising experts tell us that one of the best barometers as to whether a school is ready to launch a capital effort is the strength of its Annual Fund. This year's AF success bodes well for the potential in our community to embrace more ambitious fund raising goals. We will have news to report to you this fall on how quickly we can begin to implement a visionary long range campus master plan, one which has already been approved by the city of John's Creek.
Most importantly, I shared with our supporters Monday that there is much to celebrate at Mount Pisgah moving forward. Every teacher on staff is a believer and shares joyously the Good News with students. Total school re-enrollment is at a five-year high. New student enrollment is well ahead of last year. Teacher retention is above 90%. Our comprehensive athletic program is currently ranked #10 out of 75 in its classification in Georgia, and we are one of the smallest schools in the state. The Class of 2013 sports an impressive list of university and college acceptances to date. Last, we have hired this spring an outstanding group of educators to strengthen our team. As we look to the future, Mount Pisgah is a school grounded in its faith and committed to academic excellence. We will invest in a balanced and deep extracurricular program, featuring a plethora of quality athletic, academic (e.g. robotics, academic bowl, Odyssey of the Mind, chess) and artistic offerings. Long term, we are committed to providing superior educational facilities in every division and will pursue campaigns to accomplish this.
Our school's future is promising. I assure you that there will be plenty of opportunities in the weeks and months ahead for me to share details.
In His Service,
Your support could help us receive a $100,000 match!
Mount Pisgah Christian School is close to meeting the Annual Fund's $100,000 Challenge. In order for this anonymous group of generous donors to give $100,000, they have asked us to reach three objectives by June 30:
Please be one of the 20 families who will help us reach this third objective by moving into or up a level within the Leadership Circle. The levels are $1,000-$2,499, $2,500-$4,999, $5,000-$9,999, $10,000-$24,999, $25,000 or more. If you have already made a gift to the Annual Fund, please check with your employer to see if the company has a matching gift program that could put you into the next level!
Congratulations to Gina Hong who has won the 2013 Congressional Art Competition for the 6th District! Gina was recognized by Congressman Tom Price at a recent reception at the Roswell Visual Arts Center. Her artwork, titled "Five Perspectives" will be on display in Washington, D.C, (most likely in the Capitol Building for a year.
Pisgah students Sarah Holden and Yun Lee also had artowrk pieces on display at the reception - congratulations to all for your dedication to your craft and your outstanding achievements!
We couldn't be more proud of fifth grader Jack McConnell and his heartwarming efforts to help children in Ghana affected by hearing loss. See the touching story by clicking below.
Pisgah recently concluded another successful Pennies for Patients campaign raising more than $28,300, ranking number one in Georgia and number five nationwide among participating schools. The money benefits the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society to help in the fight against blood disorders. A very special thank you to Mr. Happy Mayer for his "hair raising" effort this year during our Pennies for Patients drive. Thank you to coordinator Craig McGaughey and all who donated their time and money to this worthy cause!
PISGAH GIRL'S TENNIS CAPTURES 4th AREA TITLE
The varsity girls tennis team won their fourth consecutive Area/Region championship last week with a dramatic 3-2 win over Darlington.
"It was a Cinderella story that could have been a Hollywood script like "Rudy" or "Hoosiers." It was an honest-to-goodness feel-good story that still continues," said Head Coach Ken Bomar."Teammates raced onto the court and everyone laughed and cried at the same time," said Bomar. "It was a fitting end for our seniors, who can now lay claim to the fact that they have won the Region championship all four years at Mount Pisgah's Upper School."
The Patriots now move into the state tournament as one of four No. 1 seeds (one from each Area tournament) and will host the number 4 seed team from Area 2 this week.
Ever wonder how Pisgah Athletics stacks up against other Class A schools, or even other Region opponents, across the board? Each year the Georgia Athletic Directors Association recognizes those athletic departments in all GHSA classifications who have excelled and shown superior performance through the Directors Cup program. This program awards point based on the results from state playoffs. Currently Pisgah is No. 10 among Class A schools and No. 4 from our Region. The Patriots are also the highest ranking private school in the Region. Wow!
G.A.D.A. Regions Directors Cup Standings
Congratulations to Pisgah's Class of 2020 for 100% reenrollment for the next school year. That's right, 100% of the current fifth grade class has reenrolled for next year - WOW! Several other grades are very close to this mark as well - as Pisgah celebrates the highest reenrollment in five years! Which class will be next?
Congratulations to junior Nicholas Spriggs who has just been accepted for the July Experience Summer Program at Davidson, (which is his first choice for college).
The selective summer experience is an academic program for rising juniors and seniors. Nicholas will take classes with college faculty, sharpen his leadership skills, and participate in sessions about the college admission process. Way to go!
Pisgah talented musicians and vocalists will be featured early next month during Band, Orchestra, and Chorus Concerts in South Hall. Senior members will be recognized. Please plan to join us as we applaud these hard working performers who have put in countless hours of practice and rehearsal throughout the year. Thank you to dedicated and talented instructors Bryan Hatmaker and Erik Buxton for bringing out the best in our students!

Fourth grade students in Mrs. Clark's Science classes recently conducted fascinating experiements to test foods. Students used iodine as an indicator which turned a bluish-black color if the food item was a starch, and it remained the yellowish-brown color if it was not a starch. This was a timely experiment just before standardized testing as the class discussed what foods are best to eat before testing or a race. They learned that starches are converted to sugars in our bodies and provide longer lasting energy than eating sugars.
Mrs. Hailey's second class students enjoy snack break during testing! Teachers take advantage of Atlanta's beautiful spring weather whenever possible and allow the students to enjoy the sunshine!

Camera and Photo Equipment Drive
The Pisgah Photography Guild is a newly formed club in the Upper School. The Guild has been established for students wishing to share photographic skills and to provide a positive forum for critiquing pictures among members from both a technical and artistic perspective.
In order to advance the organization's goals, the Guild invites the school community to search their closets and drawers for old, used, even broken photo equipment for donation to the Guild. Nearly anything related to photography including film or digital cameras, SD cards, batteries, tripods, flashes, lens, or other photographic equipment is acceptable. If you haven't used your equipment in the past year than you probably will never use it again; please consider donating it so that Pisgah students can experiment and learn with your old equipment.
Please send donations to the Upper School office. If you would like to contribute or have any questions about the Guild, please contact John Whitehurst at firstname.lastname@example.com. Thank you for your support!
Maddy Childress writes in her "field journal" about raindrops and Sophia Rhoades also pens her thoughts. These "field journals" were donated by Mr. Eric Alford.
"We try and write in these a few times a week," explains second grade teacher Lynn Kornegay. "We make observations and sketches, writing notes to God and thanking him for something in nature he created. This outdoor, quiet activity brings us closer to nature and grows our relationship with him."

NEW ORLEANS — San Francisco 49ers cornerback Chris Culliver will begin sensitivity training and education immediately after the Super Bowl following his anti-gay remarks this week, then start volunteer work with at-risk homosexual youth nationwide.
Culliver is scheduled to begin working with "The Trevor Project," an organization that provides crisis and suicide intervention to lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender youth, according to his public relations representative, Theodore Palmer.
"He's so passionate about youth and people being comfortable with who they are and accepted by all," Palmer said Saturday. "He's excited to learn. The plan is with The Trevor Project, and their concerns are that he is genuine about his words."
Palmer said Culliver, who played at South Carolina, will spend time volunteering at a crisis center in San Francisco.
"It's just an opportunity for him to learn about his comments and educate himself about the LGBT community, and grow," Palmer said. "It's the first step in learning about his words."
During Tuesday's Super Bowl media day at the Superdome, the second-year defender responded to questions from comedian Artie Lange by saying he wouldn't welcome a gay player in the locker room. He also said the 49ers didn't have any homosexual players and, if they did, those players should leave. He later apologized, facing a large group of media members for nearly an hour Thursday.
He realizes some will still question his sincerity.
"I hope people understand because it's coming directly from me and I'm talking to the whole world," Culliver said. "It is not (how I feel) in my heart."
The 49ers released a statement saying they rejected Culliver's comments, and CEO Jed York vowed to take a leadership role with the LGBT community and groups back home in the Bay Area – including taking Culliver around himself, he said.
The interview Tuesday began with Lange asking Culliver about his sexual plans with women during Super Bowl week. Lange followed up with a question about whether Culliver would consider pursuing a gay man.
"I don't do the gay guys, man. I don't do that," Culliver said during the 1-minute taped interview. "Ain't got no gay people on the team. They gotta get up outta here if they do. Can't be with that sweet stuff."
When the interview became big news Wednesday, Culliver said he met for more than an hour with general manager Trent Baalke and coach Jim Harbaugh, and also spoke with teammates.
"You've got to be very careful what you say," Hall of Fame receiver Jerry Rice said of Super Bowl week. "I'm sure he regrets making those remarks."
Culliver, 24, a third-round draft pick in 2011, made 47 tackles with two interceptions and a forced fumble this season while starting six games for the Niners.
He had his first career postseason interception in San Francisco's 28-24 win at Atlanta for the NFC title.

Submited by- ruchii.kumar on 21 Sep, 2011 Career
Every year mama has made me go to Venezuela ever since I can remember. When I was 8, mama made me go there by myself. I had to go to Spanish lessons and everything. I was doing pretty well and stuff, I had made friends and I got on with my work. After a week or so, the normal Spanish teacher had to go because her son had fallen ill and she had to go and see him everyday.From then on, her husband took over. I suffered for 5 months every night -he did bad things to me, things that have made me scared. I can still remember what happened. I remember the nights, how cold it felt, because I was scared and I still am. I can still remember the sound of the lock, when he used to lock the door with the key. All I could ever do was just try and hide in the corner. But I could never get out. How I wished I could get away. But I never It happened again when I was 11 years old, by a different man in Venezuela. He was related to me and I considered him to be a good friend. But no, he was the same as the other man. I had to go through that for 2 months. I cant take it anymore. Every night, every second when Im alone, Im scared, scared of what is going to happen. I get flashbacks Every single day. I see sick images in my head, I can still hear their voices.
Every night I see these scenes in my dreams. I just want to die. Im scared. I cant tell anyone, I cant tell my parents, we dont get along. If we talk, it just turns into arguments, and turns abusive after that.I feel as though, there is no one to trust. No one you can look in the eye, and tell them, what has been going on. Its driving me mad. I want to have a smile on my face. But I never can. I always have these people surrounding my mind. And if its not them, its others. I have to cry myself to sleep. I hardly sleep at night. I wish it doesnt ever happen to anybody. I feel like killing myself, its all getting too much for me now. I dont understand, why Im scared

Hackworth's debut looms, Perlaza's might, too
CHESTER --- For the Union, there's no time to ease in the new guy. They know it. So does the new guy.
The Union, who at midweek fired their manager and hired his assistant on an interim basis, host Eastern Conference-leading D.C. United tonight (7 o'clock) at PPL Park. And the scenario facing the Union is probably as daunting as John Hackworth's first turn as the top man.
"I'm going to steal one of (Union CEO Nick Sakiewicz's) lines: It's not my first rodeo," Hackworth said earlier this week, of his debut as Union manager. "I was a college coach for nine years. I was a head coach in college for four. I was a head coach with the national team for over four years. Even here, I've been the head coach numerous times (due to red-card suspensions).
"I don't think any of that is going to be different. I don't think this should be about John Hackworth as the focal point of this team and this organization. I'm very honored to be in this position, but at the same time it should be about this team, our players, our fans and this organization, putting all these things first."
So if Hackworth, who replaced Peter Nowak, isn't making this match about himself, that's OK … there are plenty of additional subplots to go around.
The Union (2-7-2, 8 points), ninth in the East, haven't won since April 21. Going 0-4-1 in that span, they'll be without Lio Pajoy, one of their leading scorers, who will serve a one-game suspension for a reckless tackle last month against Toronto FC.
Then there's the "other" new guy, the one from whom Hackworth stole some of the spotlight. Jorge Perlaza, the forward the Union acquired from Portland, is likely to make his debut in a Union kit. The Union, MLS' lowest-scoring side, are hopeful Perlaza can generate something on the offensive end, but Hackworth didn't sound convinced that Perlaza was the man to fill Pajoy's shoes tonight.
"We got to see (Perlaza) for the first time earlier this week," said Hackworth, referring to a Tuesday friendly in Harrisburg. "We're going to go through the next two days and see if he's the best option for us to put on the field. If he is, he'll get that opportunity, but there are some other guys in there that certainly are fighting for that spot."
As for other guys coming and going in the Union's lineup, Gabriel Gomez and Porfirio Lopez are back from international duty with their respective national teams, and Hackworth said Roger Torres, who has returned to the pitch following knee surgery, might not be fully ready to play.
Hackworth could use everyone at his disposal against D.C. United (8-4-3, 27 points), which has lost twice in its last 13 matches. D.C.'s leading scorer Maicon Santos, a sixth-year Brazilian striker, has nearly as many goals scored (seven) as the Union collectively (eight). Continued...
At least Hackworth should have starting goalkeeper Zac MacMath at the ready. MacMath, who has dealt with concussion symptoms off and on, played Tuesday in the friendly and is expected to suit up.
Hackworth knows what's at stake. This match with D.C. could represent a turning point in a season that largely has headed in the wrong direction since the season opener.
"It's really tough. This situation in particular – you're coming in a third of the way through the season, you're ninth in your conference right now and it doesn't give you a lot of latitude to experiment," Hackworth said. "We're going to have to stick with the best lineup as possible, and I hope that guys are going to fight and try to earn that opportunity. … We are a good team. I've said that all along. We have to hope we come together."

Oh, how this spring of love resembleth, the uncertain glory of an April day, which now shows all beauty of the Sun, and by and by a cloud takes all away -The Two Gentlemen of Verona -Shakespeare
Spring is in the air. Yet, what would spring be without love? We've heard that love is always a many splendid thing but what exactly is this thing called love?
In my soon to be released book Infinite Everyday Understanding: When Things Ain't All Good, I discuss love in the following way.
"Love is a trick of the Universe designed to momentarily return us to the collective consciousness that we existed in on the other side. It is the closest two human beings can come to a unified consciousness."
For others, love is an intangible feeling that connects you to a person in a deep way that makes everything seem more alive and better. For those approaching it from a scientific perspective it has more to do with physiological and chemical reactions that affect us psychologically and emotionally.
In a February article in Science News Magazine entitled "'Love' hormone has a dark side,'the writer discusses research showing the hormone Oxytocin-long attributed to engendering feelings of love and trust may not simply be just a 'love' hormone.
According to a study by Dr. Jennifer Bartz, a psychiatrist at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine, Oxytocin does not simply promote feelings of love but in reality amplifies the feelings we already possess. Therefore, for those who are trusting and open-Oxytocin could magnify those personality characteristics. At the same time if a person is suspicious and distrustful, the hormone may serve to accentuate those negative characteristics.
What lay analysts might be able to determine from the recent findings on Oxytocin is that the mere act of being in love may feel very good, but cannot heal us.
Often times in an ever-increasing socially voyeuristic world where online interactions continue to displace good-old fashion human interactions, many of us still seeking love, find loneliness an easier existence than in previous times. We look at loneliness as some type of physical defect that will change once we find someone to love us. We view being in love as the missing link to what's wrong with our lives or as some magical elixir that will ultimately grant us the ability to love ourselves once someone else loves us despite our faults.
Yet what the research on love's hormone shows us is that nothing outside of ourselves can truly heal us.
Should we find love without addressing our internal issues, we bring those issues to our new relationships. In fact, being in love as the research indicates might only intensify whatever shortcomings we have. If we are, open, trusting and accepting ourselves, we may be ready for love, but finding love won't make us a better person or help you improve those aspects of your personality that need improvement. That is something you must do regardless of whether you are in love or alone.
Despite sometimes overwhelming feelings of being alone, if we are alone, it is likely that as a co-creator of our experience we created these moments to help us grow more accepting and intimate with ourselves.
Spending time alone can be used to begin a love affair with ourselves that allows us to embark upon a path of unconditional love and acceptance of ourselves-first. The world is a reflection of our interaction with it, and through unconditional love and acceptance of ourselves; we are better able to give this energy to the rest of the world and get it back.
As the weather warms and symbols of love begins to saturate the air conspiring with floral scents to add that pep to our step, remember that being in love is great but it won't heal us. The only thing that can show us how to truly love others and put us on the path towards healing is the unconditional acceptance and love of ourselves.

I create maps for C&C3, RA3 and C&C Generals Zero Hour. I'm working now actively with mod Tiberian Sun Redux as mapper and with Tiberium Essence Campaign Makers. I also do concept arts.
0 comments by CnC_Fin on May 7th, 2013
For couple of days I've been modifying my both GDI and Nod campaign for Tiberium Essence mod. Some old plans I posted to TE campaign makers group are no longer applied, and I'm having some missions replaced or remade. So far I have 3 missions for both almost ready, and I may release them to the public soon, after of course some tweaking and fixing.
The first GDI mission is the same as planned, "Fort Cortez", and the other 2 are completely new missions, taking place in New Panama. Inspired by New Detroit mentioned in Tiberian Sun, and New Adana mentioned in C&C4.
Nod's first mission is no longer "Operation Nuclear Heist", instead it's been moved to be seen later in the campaign. Now the first mission is taking place somewhere in the aftermath of Firestorm Crisis... at the CABAL Core! The Phoenix Base mission is number 3, however it's getting a big overhaul. The second mission is quite simple, but the layout is probably the most difficult I've made so far.
GDI campaign is mostly sticking with the name "GDI Campaign" (though suggestions are welcome), but the Nod campaign is called "Slavik's Legacy", for you continue his work... even play as him! Last but not least, I'm including PDF files that come with the maps, to provide important information regarding the missions and little bit of background story.

In general terms, a congress is an official gathering of people who are elected or appointed to represent populations of people.
As used by most bloggers who use the tag here in Technorati, the reference is to the United States Congress, which is the United States Federal Government's legislative branch. US Congress is made up of the House of Representatives and the Senate.
Each of the 50 states has 2 Senators and several representatives. The number of representatives a state has is tied to its population.
Congress holds its meetings in the United States Capitol building in Washington, DC, which ironically, as a district and not a state, does not have congresspersons with voting rights.

I have a program that reads in hex strings, and returns text based on the parameters of the string. A hex string goes as follows:
A - Length of B
B - Name of interface
C - Unimportant
so for example;
0465746830010000 = 04 : 65746830 : 010000 =4 : eth0 : __________
Now, I want to process the hex strings so that if there is a character that isn't in the alphabet, 0-9, or '-' , it lets me know somehow.
Such as here :
026601000002 : 6601 : _______2 : f[unreadable] : _______
Any ideas on how would I process this so that it lets me know if any of the characters outside of these parameters arise?
I'm trying to get random hex value between range of hexes:
random.randint(0xfff000, 0xffffff)
I got the range limits from JSON, as a string.
{"range": "0xfff000,0xffffff"}
How can I convert these strings(after splitting) to hexadecimal values?
This question already has an answer here:
I have code as below:
x = readsomevalue();print x
The printed value is an integer. I want this to be printed in hexadecimal. Any standard methods to do that?
I use the php_serial.class.php and have one question. When I send this below line to my device everything runs fine.
But when I do this way, nothing happens.
$str = "\x02\x06\xf1";$serial->sendMessage($str);
Anybody has any idea as why this is happening?
I'm trying to read hex values from a binary file. I don't have a problem with extracting a string and converting letters to hex values, but how can I do that with control characters and other non-printable characters? Is there a way of reading the string directly in hex values without the need of converting it?

What happened to Emilio's on Main Street? There's a sign up that says Alma's Mexican Restaurant.
Posted by wyz, a resident of the Another Pleasanton neighborhood neighborhood, on Jul 8, 2011 at 11:16 am
If it's gone, it's long overdue. One of the worst Mexican places in town. I had never been to a place that offers only ground beef and chicken as meat options. Maybe it was because I was there on a week night, but a mexican restaurant that does not offer carnitas? Carne asada? Lengua?
Besides, their enchilada sauce tasted more like a mole. If I wanted mole I would have ordered mole.
I hope the new place is better. It shouldn't be too hard to beat Emilio's.
Posted by lisa, a resident of the Another Pleasanton neighborhood neighborhood, on Jul 8, 2011 at 8:02 pm
We enjoyed Emilio's every Friday night. Fresh food and friendly service. We hope Mike and Carol are doing well. They always served a fresh salad with our dinner choices. The portions were just right, not ridiculously large or overpriced. We eat mostly fish so did not miss carnitas as all. They had delicious vegetarian options and great fish tacos. Cheese enchilada with fresh mole fantastic. Never fried or grease bomb. Chile relleno great. We hope you keep Livermore open and or open another place in town. We miss Jovita and everyone and wish you well. Thank you for the great times.
Posted by Sam, a resident of the Oak Hill neighborhood, on Jul 9, 2011 at 9:29 am
I've never been to Emelio's but I just looked them up on Yelp. Overall rating was 3 stars, but the individual ratings were all over the place. Several people liked it, but there were also many who said that it was the "worst" Mexican in Pleasanton or the "worst" Mexican food they ever had. Yes, the word "worst" appeared quite often. Again, some positive reviews but I'm fine with Emelio leaving because I would never go there based on the overall Yelp reviews.
Posted by JR, a resident of the Danbury Park neighborhood, on Jul 10, 2011 at 3:51 pm
It is always good to read reviews and then go to the place and rate it yourself. Unfortunately some of trashing of Emilio's is unfounded and false. I was told personally by the owners there were some "problems" with some persons in the businesses nearby. Perhaps that is not related in any way to why Mike and Carol closed but it didn't help. Too bad folks cannot just get along and accept one another's differences. I loves their unique enchilada sauce. It was from the area Mike's family was from. All sauce it not bright red. Really, really miss them and their food....!!!
Posted by Not Good Mexican Food, a resident of the Another Pleasanton neighborhood neighborhood, on Jul 13, 2011 at 9:23 am
That place was about a notch above Taco Bell. I hope someone replaces it with a real mexican restaurant.
Posted by Good Mexican, a resident of the Another Pleasanton neighborhood neighborhood, on Jul 14, 2011 at 6:56 am
Pleasanton actually has more authentic mexican restaurants. Try Rancho Grande on Hopyard and Valley, or Las Fuentes on Main near Amador Valley HS. If your thing is unauthentic mexican go to Fernando's (kind of like Chevy's), and if your thing is artsy-fartsy pricey unauthentic go to Blue Agave.
Emilio's was never good, so I'm not surprised it's gone. How can you only offer chicken or ground beef as the only meat choices?
Posted by Rancho Grande, a resident of the Another Pleasanton neighborhood neighborhood, on Jul 29, 2011 at 7:23 am
I agree with you on Rancho Grande. It is probably the best and authentic mexican food you can get in Pleasanton. None of that Chevy's / Taco Hell tasting BS.
The only problem with that place is the TV that is on all the time. There is nothing more annoying than going out to eat and having to sit in front of the tube. It is intrusive and indeed very irritating! Therefore, I continue buying food at Rancho Grande, but I only do take-outs.
Posted by @ Rancho Grande, a resident of the Canyon Meadows neighborhood, on Aug 3, 2011 at 9:12 pm
I'm with you on this one. I cannot stand one more television set in a public place. They are in supermarkets, gas stations, gyms (including locker rooms!), and many other places, you just can't get away from them!
A restaurant has got to be the worst possible place to have a TV.
I can't see myself paying for a meal and having to sit through an annoying sportscaster, repetitive commercials, or aberrations of the Amercan Idol type.
Posted by Best, a resident of the Downtown neighborhood, on Aug 11, 2011 at 4:17 pm
They had the best freaking fresh made salsa ever! A Green salsa that was spicy for all spicy salsa lover and a red salsa that had a small kick but nothing over powering. Emilo's was the only mexican restaurant that made real mexican food.
Posted by Good Riddance, a resident of the Another Pleasanton neighborhood neighborhood, on Aug 16, 2011 at 12:48 pm
Emilio's food was mediocre at best. A real mexican restaurant should offer more than just ground beef or chicken as their only meat options.
And their enchilada sauce tasted odd.
I went there once and left very unsatisfied. Perhaps I should have given them a second chance. Now I will have to try the new mexican restaurant that took its place. Hopefully they will have basics like carnitas or carne asada.

Books about the U.S. Census
For general readers who want to dig further into how the decennial Census has changed over the years, here is a short list of selected books that explore its past. Included are general histories of census-taking and demographic findings, memoirs of Census Bureau directors, detailed analyses of changes in race and ethnicity categories and several books about the politically charged debate over census undercounts.
The reading list was provided by Margo J. Anderson, professor of history and urban studies at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Her own book, "The American Census: A Social History" (Yale University Press, 1988) is a thorough and well-written account of the census from colonial days through the 20th century.
In suggesting the list, Anderson wrote, "The materials listed below provide a window into a much larger literature on the history and politics of census taking, American demographic history and the political uses of the census in the United States. All of them have extensive footnotes and bibliography for the reader searching for more information. Follow their leads! The census is one of those invisible American institutions (like the Post Office) that spans our nation's history and thus rewards the intrepid explorer with great insights about American life."
In addition to Anderson's reading list, the Census Bureau website includes a history section that includes overviews of questions asked through the decades, links to legislation pertaining to the Census Bureau and other material. Read more

California Farm Bureau Federation files suit against Merced County
» January 18, 2007 «
Lawsuit aims to halt the loss of Ag Preserve farmland to development
Stating that the county of Merced must remain true to the provisions of its general plan, the California Farm Bureau Federation, on behalf of the Merced County Farm Bureau, filed suit today against the county and the Riverside Motorsports Park, in an effort to halt the development of nearly 1,200 acres of farmland protected under the California Environmental Quality Act and other laws.
The proposed Riverside Motorsports Park development would encroach upon land that is in an agricultural preserve and would be in direct conflict with the county's original general plan to keep that land available for Williamson Act protection.
"As farmers in this community we have worked very hard to assist in creating a general plan that recognizes the numerous contributions we make to Merced County. We felt secure knowing that there were designated areas of the county that were protected for agriculture and now our trust has been broken," said Louie Bandoni, president of the Merced County Farm Bureau.
"The only exception in converting or rezoning an area from farming to a non-agricultural use is if a clear and immediate need for conversion is established. The Riverside Motorsports Park has at least one or more alternative locations that would not take ag preserve land out of agriculture. Simply building a racetrack does not constitute a clear and immediate need for the conversion of this particular piece of productive farmland," Bandoni said.
When counties create general plans, they in essence have established a blueprint for land-use decisions, including where growth may occur and how farmland will be protected from that growth.
"The decision by the Merced County board of supervisors demonstrates that they have no regard for the collaborative process of community members creating a general plan. It is incumbent upon the county to walk the talk now and show their respect for the people who created the general plan and abide by the decisions that were made," said Paul Wenger, first vice president of the California Farm Bureau.
The California Farm Bureau Federation, the state's largest farm organization, works to protect family farms and ranches on behalf of nearly 92,000 members.
