Stamp prices are rocketing�by up to�a staggering 17% next month.
Standard first class prices will climb from 36p to 39p and second class stamps from 27p to 30p from Monday 6 April. The biggest price leap is for large-letter first class stamps - up 9p from 52p to 61p.
Yet stock up now and provided the stamps only say 1st or 2nd (not the price itself), you�ll inflation-proof your postage costs as they�ll still be valid after April�s increases.
What�s more, High Street chemist Superdrug is offering 5% off all first class stamp sales in-store until Tuesday 24 March, though there�s a 72-stamp limit per transaction.
Here's a selection of stamp prices:
- Book of 4 First Class for large letters: Superdrug price: �1.98. Normal price: �2.08. Normal price from April: �2.44
- Book of 6 First Class: Superdrug price: �2.05. Normal price: �2.16. Normal price from April: �2.34

Mac Harb committed mortgage fraud, RCMP alleges in docs
OTTAWA — There is more trouble for former Liberal senator Mac Harb, who the RCMP alleges in new court documents committed mortgage fraud with two properties.
In documents filed Friday, Cpl. Greg Horton says he believes Harb "did by deceit, falsehood or other fraudulent means defraud the Royal Bank of Canada of money in excess of $5,000."
Harb purchased a home in Cobden, Ont., west of Ottawa, in 2003. In 2007, he obtained a $177,000 mortgage and within hours transferred 99.99% title ownership to Magdalene Teo, then the high commissioner of Brunei. Horton says Harb never informed the bank of the transaction.
The RCMP alleges this put the bank at risk because if the mortgage had been defaulted on, Harb only owned 0.01% of the title.
Then, in 2010, Harb purchased another home, this one in nearby Westmeath, Ont. According to the court documents, he obtained a $240,000 mortgage for that property by listing his Cobden home as "a solely owned asset."
"This was a fraudulent misrepresentation of assets on that mortgage application," police allege.
The RCMP initially began investigating Harb for his expense claims as a senator.

'For me, being in a paddock means anything is possible . . .'
Country girl and bestselling novelist Rachael Treasure had worked hard to build a long-dreamed-of lifestyle on her own patch of dirt in Tasmania's rugged and beautiful wilderness. But through the breakdown of her marriage, Rachael lost her family farm and, in her words, lost her way in life.
Discovering an all-new compass to live by, she took her two kids and her dogs and left the beaten path. Intensive farming, men on the land and women in the home – everywhere Rachael looked she saw ongoing harm to the soil and the foodchain. By going down the dirt roads and getting back to grassroots, she discovered another set of stories about country life in Australia, and a different way to live on the land. From her rebel granny to pioneering farmers and passionate animal handlers, Rachael became inspired by fresh ways to do things.
Down the Dirt Roads starts as a heartfelt and moving insight into the life of a single mother displaced from her home, and becomes a groundbreaking and powerful book about healing, health and hope. Nourishing and sustaining, it presents a practical and positive vision of what life on our land could become.

Babughat is one of nearly 80 ghats that stand on either side of the Hooghly river, between Calcutta (Kolkata) and Dakshineswar. While the name Babughat is well known, not many people in Calcutta are aware who exactly this "Babu" is. So who is Babughat named after?
The answer to this question lies in a plaque above the main entrance of the ghat. The plaque contains the following text…
"THE RIGHT HON'BLE LORD WILLIAM CAVENDISH BENTINCK, GOVERNOR GENERAL & c., WITH A VIEW TO ENCOURAGE THE DIRECTION OF PRIVATE MUNIFICENCE TO WORKS OF PUBLIC UTILITY, HAS BEEN PLEASED TO DETERMINE THAT THIS GHAUT, CONSTRUCTED IN THE YEAR 1830, AT THE EXPENSE OF BABOO RAJCHUNDER DOSS, SHALL HERINAFTER BE CALLED BABOO RAJCHUNDER DOSS'S GHAUT"
Ghaut is the antiquated spelling of ghat, which roughly translates to wharf of quay, the place where people get off a boat. Rajchunder Doss would today be spelt Raj Chandra Das. Who was Raj Chandra Das? He was the zamindar of Janbazar, but his wife was much more famous than him. Her name was Rashmoni, an extraordinarily beautiful girl who was married to him at the age of 11. She came to be known as Rani Rashmoni, and was famous for both her fabulous wealth, her immense contribution to charitable causes and her famous confrontations with British authorities in the imperial capital. Legend says that the British authorities in Calcutta once attempted to ban fishing in the Hooghly by imposing a punitive tax, because the small fishing boats were causing trouble for their mercantile vessels. The poor fishermen approached Rani Rashmoni, who paid off all the taxes and then, hung a thick rope right across the river! All traffic ground to a halt! When an explanation was asked for, she said simply, that since she had paid the tax, she now had every right to recover the money by fishing, and the large ships were preventing her from doing do. The British were stumped; the tax had to be abolished, and the fishermen went back to business as usual.
Rani Rashmoni's massive estate still manages properties all over Calcutta, but she is most remembered for building the Dakshineswar Kali Temple. That too was not without its share of controversy. Brahmins objected on the grounds of caste, saying that since Rashmoni was of a lower caste, her building a temple to the Goddess Kali was not permissible, and while they were happy to take her money, in the form of alms, they would not worship in her temple. In typical style, Rashmoni found a way out by asking a young priest named Ramkumar Chattopadhyay to take over as head priest. On paper, the temple would be constructed by him, a high caste Brahmin, and Rashmoni would remain in the background as a donor. Eventually of course, Ramkumar was surpassed in fame by his younger brother, Gadadhar, who we know today as Ramakrishna Paramahamsa.
"Babus are very sophisticated people. Babughat is not very sophisticated", writes Brian Paul Bach in his book Calcutta's Edifice. The word in Bengali that I would use to describe the atmosphere of Babughat is "aadim". The English translation, primitive, does not convey the same meaning or have the same flavour. When you enter Babughat, it feels like the new, emerging Calcutta of flyovers and shopping malls is some distant fantasy. Here, nothing has changed in a century or more. With its Doric columns and shuttered windows, Babughat is a colonial bungalow in miniature. Every inch of the interiors are occupied by Brahmin priests. "Recreational use of the river is primarily a Western concept", says Gaur Mohan Kapoor of INTACH. "Indians used the river mostly for religious purposes such as bathing". Bathing in the holy Ganges, here known as the Hooghly, remains the primary use of Babughat to this day. Priests offer Pujas for the devoted, services are conducted for the dead, flowers are on sale as offerings to the Gods as are neem branches, although their purpose is somewhat less holy. Neem branches are the traditional version of the toothbrush! It is also possible to find the odd man getting a massage by the riverside.
One passes through a set of Victorian brick arches behind the ghat structure, which holds up the Circular Railway line in this part of town. Beyond the arches are steps leading to the water. Since the Hooghly's water rises considerably at high tide, the whole area is somewhat slippery underfoot. But what is overwhelming is the sheer amount of garbage that the area is filled with. A considerable part of that garbage is flowers from various pujas which have happened on the premises. There are also remains of idols which have been immersed in the river after worship as well are just regular filth generated when a large mass gathers in one area every day. What was once the women's section, with changing rooms, is now inaccessible due to piles of garbage blocking the way. Only in India does one find the sacred and profane in coexisting peacefully!
In Colonel Mark Wood's Map of 1784, Babughat marks the Southern boundary of Dhee (from the Bengali Dihi, meaning village) Calcutta. From here began Dihi Govindpore, which extended as far as the Adi Ganga, known variously as Surman's Nullah and the Tolly Canal. With every inch teeming with humanity, Babughat is a great place for street photographers. In a city that is rapidly changing, where magnificent old buildings are sacrificed for ugly glass and steel skyscrapers, Babughat continues to hold out, for good or bad. The only visible change is the ubiquitous mobile phone hiding in the folds of the priest's dhotis.

NBC: It's All Your Fault… Wikileaker Bradley Manning Only Released the 250,000+ Documents Because He Was Teased For Being Gay (Video)
In a recent segment on far left Wikileaker Private First Class Bradley Manning, NBC made him out to be a victim who was abused because he was gay… And, of course, the teasing forced him to steal the 250,000+ security documents on and release them on the internet.
…And, that's why we need DADT repealed.
Via MRC.org and FOX Nation:
It's all your fault.
And, if you only stopped teasing people there would be no treason, ever.

- Melt the white chocolate chips and place in piping bag or small plastic bag. Cut a small hole in the corner of the bag. Pipe a few bone shapes onto the side of your trifle bowl. You want to make sure some will be visible before you serve it. Pipe the rest into bone shapes on wax paper. Refrigerate bowl and extra bones until set.
- Cut the cake into small cubes. Layer half of them on the bottom of the trifle bowl. Scatter a few bones on the cake layer. Top with half of the pudding. Repeat these layers.
- Spread the Oreo crumbs over the top layer of pudding. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Immediately before serving, place a couple of meringue ghosts on top of the trifle and stick a few bones so they are showing through the "dirt."
- Serve each helping with a ghost and a couple of bones. Eek!

What we do
Foundation Sustainability
As a not-for-profit entity, the primary purpose of the Mt. San Antonio College Foundation is to support programs and initiatives that advance the College as well as students' access to education. This can only be accomplished through the generosity of individual donors and corporate sponsorships. A gift to the Mt.

Mt. SAC Foundation is committed to promoting the highest level of access to education. Our efforts and your charitable gifts make higher education a reality for many students. The foundation's focus on student success ensures the greatest impact of every donor dollar. A history of limited opportunity is common among our students – many are economically disadvantaged, first in their families to attend college, or single parents creating their own opportunity. Returning veterans, long-time learners, and those with disabilities chose Mt. SAC as their institution of higher education and we take pride and celebrate them. Scholarships provide assistance to all students, no matter what their personal story or journey is. You have the ability to provide access to education for all students.
Donors can give a gift of any amount to the Mt. SAC Foundation Board of Directors Scholarship. Mt. SAC employees are encouraged to support the Associates Scholarship.

- Select tension values to display in Lbs., daN or KG
- Depress the "Store" button to record and average your previous five readings along with their average
- Data Logging Feature. Select either Continuous or Single Point data logging mode and record tension values to the instrument's memory.
- Data Statistics: Monitor your process by viewing count, maximum, minimum, average, and standard deviation values of your logged data.
- Data Averaging: Use this feature to adjust the stability of your displayed, tension readings. This feature allows the user to select the duration the instrument takes tension readings over and posting that average to the display. Options are: 1, 2, 5 and 10 seconds. This is a rolling average, meaning that only the readings taken in the last 1, 2, 5 or 10 seconds (your choice) will be averaged and displayed.

Serial Output Note: Your receiving device will require a "software wedge" in order to upload data from the instrument and there are many of these programs to choose from. (If you require a "software wedge" program there is "freeware" software available as long as it is not used in countries with encryption restrictions [US, Europe and Canada are fine] and usually this "freeware" does not need to be installed to operate.)
Tensitron calibrates instruments using the "free hanging weight" method. This means that we vertically suspend an accurately-sized cable, attach a NIST-certified weight to the bottom of it, engage the instrument on the cable, and the tension reading on the instrument will correspond to the amount of the weight. If you require a different calibration method, please contact Tensitron.
To verify the accuracy of your Tensitron meter, use the "free hanging weight" method as a standard rather than comparing your meter's readings to those of another gauge. Also do not use a tensioning device that converts rotational torque into tension values, and do not simulate tension using a calibration bar, because these systems are often inaccurate and may damage your meter. If you need assistance, please refer to your meter's Operating Instructions or contact Tensitron.

Is Torrance a good place to live? (Los Angeles)
I might be relocating to LA and working in the Torrance area.
Is it an affordable, good, and safe area to live in?
I prefer to live near to where I work.
I'm guessing it gets expensive nearer to the beach (West).
I believe Compton to the North East has a bad reputation.
Please correct me if I'm wrong, and also advise me. Mil Gracias :)
It's funny I just left Mexico City (where I was a member of Internations), then arrived back in the UK, to find a job in California!

Christ Feeds
Chainda is a community of more than 40,000 in Zambia, all in some way affected by HIV/AIDS, who have been uprooted and moved to the capital city to have access to the drugs they need to survive. Imagine that half are children, many who do not know if they will have a meal each day, much less any chance for an education or a brighter future. Will anyone stand in the gap?
Christ Church is making an intentional decision to stand in that gap directly with Christ Feeds. Working together with Stop Hunger Now, groups will package healthy and sustainable meals to be sent directly to our partner in Zambia, Mercy Ministries. The food will offer nourishment to the HIV affected community and more than 350 children served by the local school.
Christ Feeds will be quite different this year, and there are some important things for you to know:
- The event will occur on Sunday morning, October 16 in Seabrook Hall.
- There are two different shifts for you to choose from on the morning, 8:30 or 11:00.
- Worship will be combined all morning in the Sanctuary with normal service times, allowing you to both worship and serve.
- Sunday school classes will not meet.
- Nursery and Pre-K classes will be available for children under the age of 4.
- There will also be a Serving and Engagement Fair through the church with ways to get involved in our church, our community and around the world.

As HBO's Big Love nears its March series finale, what happens in the last three episodes "is astonishing," teases creator Mark Olsen. "We really went there!" Pressed for a few hints, Olsen and cocreator Will Scheffer warn us to expect an "ultimate and final showdown" pitting Bill against Alby.
Also in the works: a rift within the Henrickson family that could result in D-I-V-O-R-C-E; a totally unexpected marriage (Ben and Heather, perhaps?); and a "great tragedy" in the final episode that brings back eldest daughter Sarah (Amanda Seyfried). An early pitch to show the deceased Henricksons reunited in the celestial kingdom was nixed.
Promises star Bill Paxton, "We want to go out big. As unorthodox and taboo as their polygamist marriage is in the eyes of most people, I think viewers have rooted for the Henricksons, and I don't think they're going to be disappointed with how it ends."

Last week, Michael Mukasey became the new Attorney General of the United States after a brief but contentious confirmation battle in the Senate Judiciary Committee. The former federal judge's confirmation hit a road bump when senators questioned him about U.S. torture policy. At issue was a practice known as "waterboarding" that the United States has used on some terrorism detainees, including alleged Al Qaeda plotter Khalid Sheikh Mohammad. While Mukasey described the technique as "repugnant," he refused to describe it as torture or call it illegal, arguing that since he has not been briefed on how the United States uses the technique, he wasn't in a position to make that judgment.
Given the substantial evidence suggesting that the United States has tortured a number of its terrorism detainees–sometimes in secret prisons, or "black sites," located in foreign countries–Mukasey's refusal to denounce waterboarding as torture raised serious concerns for many onlookers.
Opponents of waterboarding say that the technique is torture and is therefore off limits to anyone affiliated with the United States or its military. The Bush administration, for its part, has asserted that the president, as the executive-in-chief, has the power to ignore any law that infringes on his interpretation of broad executive power. And Bush's top legal advisors redefined torture in ways that allowed the administration to ignore prohibitions against it.
As Mukasey begins his tenure at the Justice Department, it's important to bring some clarity to this issue. The debate over waterboarding has centered on whether or not it's torture. But, in fact, this is a settled question for those outside the Bush administration. As the United States continues to apprehend suspected terrorists, it is vital that Americans understand what is being done to detainees in their name, and any such understanding requires that they know the facts about waterboarding.
What Is Waterboarding?
There's some debate over the precise definition of the term. New Yorker reporter Jane Mayer described it as a practice in which the victim "is bound and immersed in water until he nearly drowns." Generally, though, it designates a more complicated procedure.

The lack of any kind of official nexus 7 docking station has been a big talking point in our forum and around the net.
Many of us just can't understand why such a useful product hasn't been made available given that the tablet is approaching six months old. There is an obvious demand for this device from a market consisting of millions of Nexus 7 owners.
Anyway, it seems that ASUS will be getting a dock out soon with ASUS claiming it "Will be released in early December 2012.".
You can see the dock listed up here on the ASUS website, don't hold your breath but we might see this before Christmas afterall!
We know that:
- The dock has audio output
- Dimensions are 219mm x 65mm x 30mm
- Weighs about 280 grams
- Tablet must be on Android 4.2
We'll update our very own Nexus 7 Dock page when we get more information, in the meantime, if you see this available anywhere in the UK then please let us know!

Early one morning the young Vietnamese woman awoke and discovered she could barely move. A rash she'd recently developed was much worse, and her already-swollen joints had stiffened further. When at last she forced herself out of bed, she found she was unable to bend over a nearby crib to tend her infant son.
In her new world in Southern California, the woman knew only one person guaranteed to help her. So, with enormous difficulty, she crept downstairs to the telephone. Before long, Joan Eichinger--accompanied by her son Dan and Dan's Vietnamese-American wife--was speeding toward the woman's rented room.
The three rescuers took the woman to the emergency room at UCI Medical Center, and while Eichinger's daughter-in-law helped the immigrant with her limited English, Joan Eichinger tended the baby.
Later came four months of weekly, sometimes twice-weekly, trips to the medical center for many tests, while doctors puzzled over Phuc (not her real name) and her symptoms. Finally, a rare kind of stress-triggered arthritis was diagnosed.

Rysher Entertainment pulled off a surprise last-minute victory in the battle for worldwide rights to the Ralph Fiennes project "Eugene Onegin."
Rysher came from behind to beat out Summit Entertainment, which virtually had the deal in its pocket Friday.
"Eugene Onegin," based on Alexander Pushkin's 19th century Russian novel, will star Fiennes and Liv Tyler. Fiennes will also take a producing credit along with Ileen Maisel. Pic will be directed by his sister, Martha.
Budget is around $15 million. It's due to begin lensing in February on location in St. Petersburg.
Summit was already pitching the project Friday, with CEO Patrick Wachsberger assuring Daily Variety, "We have the picture. Definitely."
CAA's John Ptak, who was in charge of the auction, also told Daily Variety that Summit looked set for the deal, although legal work was still in progress.
Rysher came back with a rich new offer late Friday night, and started selling the project Saturday. Rysher had skedded a cocktail party Friday to unveil the pic, with Fiennes attending, but had to go ahead without an announcement and without the star because the deal at that point seemed to have fallen through.
The issues were resolved amicably between the two companies.

Debating the Rule of Law
Searching the Home of Dollree Mapp
Adapted and reprinted from American Bar Association, Law Day Stories (Chicago: ABA, 1995), 71-74.
Sitting at home, enjoying one's privacy. Americans take that right for granted. Yet the founders of our country did not. They wrote that right into law as the Fourth Amendment. The amendment does not forbid the police to search a person's home for evidence of a crime, but as a general rule it does require for a search warrant to be legally obtained beforehand. Unfortunately, there are numerous cases on record in which the authorities have violated this constitutional guarantee. The case of Dollree Mapp was one such incident.
It was May 23, 1957. A woman named Dollree Mapp was alone in her home on the second floor of a two-family house in Cleveland, Ohio. The doorbell rang. What happened next would help establish a rule of law that would affect trials in state courts throughout the country. It would affect what evidence may be presented at a trial and what evidence must be thrown out.
When Dollree Mapp's doorbell rang that afternoon of May 23, she went downstairs and saw three police officers at her door. One of the police officers announced that they were looking for a man in order to question him about a recent bombing. They had reason to believe the man was in that house. The police officers also said they were looking for evidence of an illegal gambling operation. Mapp said she would have to talk to her lawyer before letting the police in. The officers waited outside while she phoned her attorney. He advised Mapp to ask whether the police had a search warrant. A search warrant is a legal document that must describe the place to be searched. It must specify what the police are searching for, and it must be signed by a judge. Mapp's attorney told her that if the police did not show her a search warrant, she did not have to let them in.
Mapp went back to the door and asked to see a search warrant. The police officers admitted that they did not have one. Mapp then locked the downstairs door on them. After one of the police radioed the station to explain what had happened, the three officers waited outside at the front entrance of Mapp's house.
Needless to say, Dollree Mapp became more than a little nervous and upset as she watched the police from her upstairs window. A little while later, her phone rang. On the other end of the line was a police lieutenant who told Mapp to let the police search her house. Instead, Mapp called her lawyer again. He told her he would come over. Meanwhile, two more squad cars with four more police officers appeared outside Mapp's house.
When Mapp finally saw her lawyer's car pull up, she started down the stairs to let him in. By that time, however, several of the police officers had already broken into her hallway. Outside, the other officers were preventing Mapp's lawyer from entering the house.
Mapp demanded to see a search warrant. One of the officers held up a piece of paper, which Mapp grabbed and hid inside her clothing. A struggle followed. The police managed to wrest the paper away from Mapp, who was then handcuffed and led upstairs to her bedroom. Telling her to sit on the bed and not to bother anyone, the police began to search her home—her dresser and closet and suitcases, her living room and kitchen, even her daughter's bedroom. Outside Mapp's lawyer declared that what they were doing was against the law. The police ignored him.
When no evidence of any crime was found in Mapp's second-floor home, the police officers went down to the basement of the house to continue their search. There they noticed an old trunk, opened it, and found some books and pictures that they claimed were obscene. The police seized the material as evidence and arrested Mapp for possession of obscene materials, a violation of a state law in Ohio.
Mapp protested. She tried to convince the police that the materials were not hers but belonged to a former tenant. Nonetheless, she was arrested and brought to trial.
Mapp pleaded "not guilty" to the charge. During her trial, no search warrant was ever produced. The books and pictures, therefore, had been illegally seized. Yet despite this fact, the evidence was introduced at her trial. Since 1914, it had been the law that such illegally seized evidence could not be admitted in federal court. But Mapp was being tried in a state court. She was found guilty and sentenced to one to eight years in prison.
Mapp and her lawyer appealed her case to the Ohio Supreme Court. That court affirmed her conviction on technical grounds related to Ohio state law, not the Fourth Amendment.
Mapp then appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court to review her case. In 1961, four years after her conviction, the Court agreed to hear Mapp v. Ohio. The issues that the justices decided to consider were not whether the Ohio state law was unconstitutional but rather (1) whether the police had the right to enter Mapp's home without a search warrant and (2) whether the evidence taken could be admitted in a state court.
The Supreme Court decided six to three in Dollree Mapp's favor. It ruled that the officers had not had the right to enter and search her home without a warrant and that no evidence seized during such an illegal search could be used against her in a state court. Justice Thomas C. Clark wrote the majority opinion, citing the Fourth Amendment's ban on illegal searches and seizures:
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
Justice Clark concluded: "We hold that all evidence obtained by searches and seizures in violation of the Constitution is, by the same authority, inadmissible in a state court."
With this ruling, the Court was extending the exclusionary rule that federal judges sometimes exercised—throwing out evidence that does not conform to exact constitutional standards. The Mapp decision applied the exclusionary rule to state as well as federal courts.
Dollree Mapp was therefore free. Her conviction was overturned. The Supreme Court of the United States had safeguarded an important constitutional right, and the rule of law had finally prevailed.

IMPORTANT: This stack should not be used in production environments.
Bitnami Kubernetes Sandbox provides a complete, easy to deploy development environment for containerised apps. It is a realistic environment to learn and develop services in Kubernetes.
For more information about Kubernetes, check Bitnami Kubernetes documentation and the official Kubernetes website.
First steps with the Bitnami Kubernetes Sandbox Stack
Welcome to your new Bitnami application running on Bitnami Cloud Hosting! Here are a few questions (and answers!) you might need when first starting with your application.
What credentials do I need?
You need two sets of credentials:
- The application credentials that allow you to log in to your new Bitnami application. These credentials consist of a username and password.
- The server credentials that allow you to log in to your Bitnami Cloud Hosting server using an SSH client and execute commands on the server using the command line. These credentials consist of an SSH username and key.
What is the administrator username set for me to log in to the application for the first time?
Username: user
What SSH username should I use for secure shell access to my application?
SSH username: bitnami
How to start or stop the services?
The main cluster service is kubelet, which is responsible of executing all the containers in the cluster. kubelet is a systemd service, so can use systemctl to manage it. Use this command to stop the cluster:
$ sudo systemctl stop kubelet
Start the service by running systemctl as follows:
$ sudo systemctl start kubelet
Restart the service as follows:
$ sudo systemctl restart kubelet
You can check the status of the service by executing:
$ sudo systemctl status kubelet
What is the default configuration?
The following pods are available by default in the cluster:
- Kubernetes control plane (kube-apiserver, kube-scheduler, kube-controller and etcd-server): Manages, configures and validates all the elements in the cluser (pods, deployments, nodes, and so on). This is essential for the cluster to work correctly.
- Ingress controller (nginx-server and default-http-backend): Nginx server that allows the user to deploy inbound connection rules to reach the cluster services.
- Heapster (heapster, influxdb): enables container cluster monitoring and performance analysis.
- Grafana: cluster metrics visualization and analysis tool.
- Helm: tool for managing Kubernetes charts. Charts are packages of pre-configured Kubernetes resources.
- Persistent Local Volume provisioner (local-volume-provisioner): Allows the dynamic creation of persisent volumes using the Virtual Machine's filesystem.
- Kubernetes Dashboard (kubernetes-hasdboard): Web-based UI for managing the cluster.
This cluster has also Role Based Access Control (RBAC) policies enabled.
Where can I find the default kubeconfig file?
The default configuration file is located in /etc/kubernetes/admin.conf
Kubernetes Ports
This application is listening in the following ports:
- 80: Ingress controller HTTP port.
- 443: Ingress controller HTTPS port.
- 6443: Kubernetes API Server port.
- 30000-40000: Nodeport services.
You can find how to check and modify your firewall settings here.
What are the default ports?
A port is an endpoint of communication in an operating system that identifies a specific process or a type of service. Bitnami stacks include several services or servers that require a port.
IMPORTANT: Making this application's network ports public is a significant security risk. You are strongly advised to only allow access to those ports from trusted networks. If, for development purposes, you need to access from outside of a trusted network, please do not allow access to those ports via a public IP address. Instead, use a secure channel such as a VPN or an SSH tunnel. Follow these instructions to remotely connect safely and reliably.
Port 22 is the default port for SSH connections.
Bitnami opens some ports for the main servers. These are the ports opened by default: 80, 443, 6443, 30000-40000.
Getting started with your Kubernetes Cluster
Initialize your Helm configuration
This cluster has Helm (and its tiller server) already installed, so execute the following command to start using Helm:
$ helm init
Install an application using a Helm Chart
A Helm chart describes a specific version of an application, also known as a "release". The "release" includes files with Kubernetes-needed resources and files that describe the installation, configuration, usage and license of a chart.
The steps below show, step by step, how to run the following Bitnami applications using Helm charts:
These are just some concrete examples of application releases. Find more Bitnami charts.
By executing the helm install command the application will be deployed on the Kubernetes cluster. You can install more than one chart across the cluster or clusters.
|IMPORTANT: If you don't specify a release name with the --name option one will be automatically assigned.
You can find an example of the installation of Redis using Helm charts below:
$ helm install stable/redis
|NOTE: Check the configurable parameters of the Redis chart and their default values at the official Kubernetes GitHub repository.
Once you have the chart installed a "Notes" section will be shown at the bottom of the installation information. It contains important instructions about how to obtain your application's IP address or credentials. Please check it carefully:
Find how to install MongoDB, Odoo or WordPress in the examples below:
To install the most recent MongoDB release, run the following command:
$ helm install stable/mongodb
NOTE: Check the configurable parameters of the MongoDB chart and their default values at the official Kubernetes GitHub repository.
To install the most recent Odoo release, run the following command:
$ helm install stable/odoo
NOTE: Check the configurable parameters of the Odoo chart and their default values at the official Kubernetes GitHub repository.
To install the most recent WordPress release, run the following command:
$ helm install stable/wordpress --set mariadb.image=bitnami/mariadb:10.1.21-r0
NOTE: Check the configurable parameters of the WordPress chart and their default values at the official Kubernetes GitHub repository.
Now, you can manage your deployments from the Kubernetes Dashboard. Follow the instructions below to access the Web user interface.
Access the Kubernetes Dashboard
The Kubernetes Dashboard is a Web user interface from which you can manage your clusters in a more simple and digestible way. It provides information on the cluster state, deployments and container resources. You can also check both the credentials and the log error file of each pod within the deployment.
To open the Kubernetes Dashboard, access http://YOUR_IP (replacing the YOUR_IP placeholder with your instance's address) using a browser. You will be prompted a username and a password. Follow this section to obtain them.
The home screen shows the "Workloads" section. Here you get an overview of the following cluster elements:
- CPU usage
- Memory usage
- Deployments
- Replica Sets
- Pods
From this home screen, you can perform some basic actions such as:
- Monitoring the status of your deployments and pods.
- Checking pod and container(s) logs to identify possible errors during the creation of the containers.
- Finding application credentials.
Monitor the status of Deployments and Pods
Monitor Deployments
- To check detailed information about the status of your deployments, navigate to the "Workloads -> Deployments" section located on the left menu. It shows a screen with a graphical representation of the CPU and memory usage, as well as a list of all deployments you have in your cluster.
- Click each deployment to obtain detailed information of the selected deployment:
Monitoring pods
Pods are the smallest units in Kubernetes deployments. They can contain one or multiple containers (that need to share resources in order to work together). Learn more about pods.
When you click on a pod in the "Workloads -> Pods", you access the pod list. By selecting a pod, you will see the "Details" section that contains information related to the pod,and a "Containers" section that includes the information related to this pod's container(s).
Follow these instructions to access pod and container information:
- To check the status of your deployments in detail, navigate to the "Workloads -> Pods" section located on the left menu. It shows the pod list:
- Click the pod you'd like to access further details for.
Check logs
The Kubernetes Dashboard allows you to check the logs of both the pod and any containers belonging to the pod to detect possible errors that might have occurred. To access the logs viewer, follow the steps below:
Navigate to the "Workloads -> Pods" section located on the left menu, select the pod you'd like to check from the pod list.
In the detail page of the selected pod, you will find a "View logs" link both in the "Details" and "Containers" section. Click the one you want to see:
The logs viewer opens:
Find application credentials
The application credentials are shown in the "Notes" section after installing the application chart:
You can get the application username and password at any time by running the following command:
$ kubectl describe po
As you can see in the image above, the application password is configured as a secret password. To get it, browse to the Kubernetes Dashboard and follow these instructions:
Navigate to the "Config -> Secrets" section located on the left menu.
Click the application for which you wish to obtain the credentials.
In the "Data" section, click the eye icon to see the password:
How to upload files to the server with SFTP?
|NOTE: Bitnami applications can be found in /opt/bitnami/apps.
First, obtain your SSH credentials by following these steps:
Browse to the Bitnami Cloud Hosting dashboard and sign in if required using your Bitnami account.
Select the "Servers" menu item.
Select your cloud server from the resulting list.
Click the "Manage" button.
On the resulting page, note the server IP address.
Click the "Connect" button and download the SSH key for your server in .ppk format (for FileZilla or WinSCP) or in .pem format (for Cyberduck).
Although you can use any SFTP/SCP client to transfer files to your server, this guide documents FileZilla (Windows, Linux and Mac OS X), WinSCP (Windows) and Cyberduck (Mac OS X).
Using an SSH Key
Once you have your server's SSH key, choose your preferred application and follow the steps below to connect to the server using SFTP.
|IMPORTANT: To use FileZilla, your server private key should be in PPK format.
Follow these steps:
- Download and install FileZilla.
- Launch FileZilla and use the "Edit -> Settings" command to bring up FileZilla's configuration settings.
Within the "Connection -> SFTP" section, use the "Add keyfile" command to select the private key file for the server. FileZilla will use this private key to log in to the server.
- Use the "File -> Site Manager -> New Site" command to bring up the FileZilla Site Manager, where you can set up a connection to your server.
- Enter your server host name and specify bitnami as the user name.
Select "SFTP" as the protocol and "Ask for password" as the logon type.
- Use the "Connect" button to connect to the server and begin an SFTP session. You might need to accept the server key, by clicking "Yes" or "OK" to proceed.
You should now be logged into the /home/bitnami directory on the server. You can now transfer files by dragging and dropping them from the local server window to the remote server window.
If you have problems accessing your server, get extra information by use the "Edit -> Settings -> Debug" menu to activate FileZilla's debug log.
|IMPORTANT: To use WinSCP, your server private key should be in PPK format.
Follow these steps:
- Download and install WinSCP.
- Launch WinSCP and in the "Session" panel, select "SCP" as the file protocol.
Enter your server host name and specify bitnami as the user name.
Click the "Advanced…" button and within the "SSH -> Authentication -> Authentication parameters" section, select the private key file for the server. WinSCP will use this private key to log in to the server.
- From the "Session" panel, use the "Login" button to connect to the server and begin an SCP session.
You should now be logged into the /home/bitnami directory on the server. You can now transfer files by dragging and dropping them from the local server window to the remote server window.
If you need to upload files to a location where the bitnami user doesn't have write permissions, you have two options:
Once you have configured WinSCP as described above, click the "Advanced…" button and within the "Environment -> Shell" panel, select sudo su - as your shell. This will allow you to upload files using the administrator account.
Upload the files to the /home/bitnami directory as usual. Then, connect via SSH and move the files to the desired location with the sudo command, as shown below:
$ sudo mv /home/bitnami/uploaded-file /path/to/desired/location/
|IMPORTANT: To use Cyberduck, your server private key should be in PEM format.
Follow these steps:
Select the "Open Connection" command and specify "SFTP" as the connection protocol.
In the connection details panel, under the "More Options" section, enable the "Use Public Key Authentication" option and specify the path to the private key file for the server.
Use the "Connect" button to connect to the server and begin an SFTP session.
You should now be logged into the /home/bitnami directory on the server. You can now transfer files by dragging and dropping them from the local server window to the remote server window.
How to connect to Kubernetes Sandbox from a different machine?
For security reasons, the Kubernetes Sandbox ports in this solution cannot be accessed over a public IP address. To connect to Kubernetes Sandbox from a different machine, you must open port 80, 443, 6443, 30000-40000 for remote access. Refer to the FAQ for more information on this.
IMPORTANT: Making this application's network ports public is a significant security risk. You are strongly advised to only allow access to those ports from trusted networks. If, for development purposes, you need to access from outside of a trusted network, please do not allow access to those ports via a public IP address. Instead, use a secure channel such as a VPN or an SSH tunnel. Follow these instructions to remotely connect safely and reliably.
How can I run a command in the Bitnami Kubernetes Sandbox Stack?
Log in to the server console as the bitnami user and run the command as usual. The required environment is automatically loaded for the bitnami user.
How to configure kubectl to connect to Kubernetes Sandbox?
To configure a locally-installed copy of kubectl to connect to the Kubernetes Sandbox, follow these steps:
- Connect to the Bitnami Kubernetes Sandbox using SFTP.
- Download the /etc/kubernetes/admin.conf file to your local system.
Edit the downloaded file and update the server variable to reflect the public IP address of the running Bitnami Kubernetes Sandbox instance.
... - cluster server: https://SERVER-IP:6443 ...
Move the downloaded file to ~/.kube/sandbox.conf:
$ sudo mv admin.conf ~/.kube/sandbox.conf
Set the KUBECONFIG environment variable to reflect the new configuration file:
$ export KUBECONFIG=~/.kube/sandbox.conf
Your locally installed copy of kubectl should now be configured to use the Bitnami Kubernetes Sandbox. Verify this by executing kubectl cluster-info and checking the output.
How to add nodes to a Kubernetes cluster
If you have two Bitnami Kubernetes Sandbox Stack instances (each with their own Kubernetes cluster), you can create a cluster with them. In order to do so, one of the instances will be the master and the other will be the worker (you can freely chose which one is the master). This worker node will join the master node's cluster.
Get the master node token
Execute the following command on the master node:
$ kubeadm token list
Write down the token listed. It will be denoted as CLUSTER_TOKEN. Get the master node's private IP address:
$ ifconfig
Write down the IP address. It will be denoted as MASTER_IP.
Join the worker node to the master
Execute the following commands to tear down the worker's cluster.
$ kubeadm reset $ sudo rm /etc/kubernetes -r
Execute this command to join the master node's cluster. Replace the CLUSTER_TOKEN and MASTER_IP placeholders:
$ kubeadm join --token=CLUSTER_TOKEN MASTER_IP:6443
After this command, the following command (in the master node) will show two nodes.
$ kubectl get nodes NAME STATUS AGE VERSION node1 Ready 1d v1.7.5 node2 Ready 1d v1.7.5
How to add a user to the Kubernetes Dashboard?
For security reasons, the access to the Kubernetes Dashboard requires basic authentication. The file /opt/bitnami/kubernetes/auth stores all the access credentials. If you want to add a new credential, do the following:
Create a new credential using OpenSSL. Substitute the USER and PASSWORD credentials.
$ export NEW_CREDENTIAL=USER:$(echo PASSWORD | openssl passwd -apr1 -noverify -stdin)
Append the previously created credential to /opt/bitnami/kubernetes/auth.
$ echo $NEW_CREDENTIAL | sudo tee -a /opt/bitnami/kubernetes/auth
Replace the cluster basic-auth secret.
$ kubectl delete secret basic-auth -n kube-system $ kubectl create secret generic basic-auth --from-file=/opt/bitnami/kubernetes/auth -n kube-system
Replace the ingress rule dashboard-rule so the new secret is applied.
$ kubectl delete -f /opt/bitnami/kubernetes/manifests/kubernetes-dashboard-ingress.yaml $ kubectl create -f /opt/bitnami/kubernetes/manifests/kubernetes-dashboard-ingress.yaml
How to add a new persistent volume to the provisioner?
The local volume provisioner works like this (taken from the official local volume provisioner documentation):
"The discovery routine periodically reads the configured discovery directories and looks for new mount points that don't have a PV, and creates a PV for it."
The provisioner is configured with /opt/bitnami/kubernetes/localvolumes as the discovery directory. By default it includes 10 subfolders, so the provisioner creates 10 Persistent Volumes (PV), all of them using the local filesystem. For adding new volumes, there are two choices: use the VM's filesystem or an external filesystem.
Option 1: Volume from the VM filesystem
This is the easiest option, but it is limited to the virtual machine filesystem maximum space.
Create a new subfolder in /opt/bitnami/kubernetes/localvolumes/ (the subfolder name is irrelevant):
$ sudo mkdir /opt/bitnami/kubernetes/localvolumes/new_volume
Check that a new volume is available by executing this command.
$ kubectl get pv NAME CAPACITY ... ... <new_volume_id> <vm_size> ...
Option 2: Volume from an external disk
|NOTE: We assume that the external disk is located in /dev/sdb1.
You can also mount an external disk so it is used as a persistent volume. This is useful to overcome the VM space limitations.
Mount the external disk as a subfolder in /opt/bitnami/kubernetes/localvolumes/ (the subfolder name is irrelevant):
$ sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /opt/bitnami/kubernetes/localvolumes/new_volume
How to remove the Kubernetes Dashboard ingress rule?
If you do not want the Dashboard to be accessible via Ingress, then execute the following command:
$ kubectl delete -f /opt/bitnami/kubernetes/manifests/kubernetes-dashboard-ingress.yaml
Where can I learn more about Bitnami Kubernetes Sandbox Stack?
In Bitnami Official Kubernetes Documentation, you can find how-to guides for essential cluster operations, such as:
- Create your first Helm Chart
- Configure RBAC in your Kubernetes Cluster
- Secure Kubernetes Services with Ingress, TLS and LetsEncrypt
- Get Started with Serverless Computing
For a deeper understanding of Kubernetes API Objects, visit the Kubernetes Official Documentation.
How to upgrade the Kubernetes cluster?
|NOTE: This will tear down the cluster you currently have.
If you want to upgrade your cluster to a new version of Kubernetes, follow these steps:
Download the latest version of Kubernetes from its Github release page.
Extract the downloaded tarball.
$ tar xf kubernetes.tar.gz
Execute the following script to obtain the Kubernetes binaries.
$ cd kubernetes/client $ ./get-kube-binaries $ cd ../..
Extract the downloaded kube binaries.
$ cd kubernetes/server $ tar xf kubernetes-server-linux-amd64.tar.gz $ cd ../..
Copy the following binaries to /opt/bitnami/kubernetes/bin.
$ sudo cp kubeadm kubelet kubectl /opt/bitnami/kubernetes/bin
Initialize the cluster.
$ kubeadm init
Stop the recently created cluster.
$ systemctl stop kubelet
Enable the PersistentLocalVolume alpha feature gate in /etc/kubernetes/manifests/kube-apiserver.yaml, /etc/kubernetes/manifests/kube-scheduler.yaml and /etc/kubernetes/manifests/kube-controller.yaml by adding the following line inside the command section:
Start the cluster.
$ sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh start kubeadm
If you want the extra elements included in Bitnami Kubernetes Sandbox Stack, apply the manifests found in /opt/bitnami/kubernetes/manifests.
# Weave $ kubectl create -f weave-net.yaml # Ingress $ kubectl create -f nginx-ingress-controller-rbac.yaml $ kubectl create -f nginx-ingress-controller.yaml # Heapster and Grafana $ kubectl create -f heapster.yaml $ kubectl create -f heapster-rbac.yaml $ kubectl create -f influxdb.yaml $ kubectl create -f grafana.yaml # Kubernetes Dashboard $ kubectl create -f kubernetes-dashboard.yaml $ kubectl create secret generic basic-auth --from-file=/opt/bitnami/kubernetes/auth $ kubectl create -f kubernetes-dashboard-ingress.yaml # Local Volume Provisioner $ kubectl create -f local-volume-config.yaml $ kubectl create -f local-volume-storageclass.yaml $ kubectl create -f local-volume-bootstrapper-admin-account.yaml $ kubectl create -f local-volume-bootstrapper.yaml
How to create a full backup of Kubernetes Sandbox?
The Bitnami Kubernetes Sandbox Stack is self-contained and the simplest option for performing a backup is to copy or compress the Bitnami stack installation directory. To do so in a safe manner, you will need to stop all servers, so this method may not be appropriate if you have people accessing the application continuously.
Follow these steps:
Change to the directory in which you wish to save your backup:
$ cd /your/directory
Stop all servers:
$ sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh stop
Create a compressed file with the stack contents:
$ sudo tar -pczvf application-backup.tar.gz /opt/bitnami
Restart all servers:
$ sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh start
You should now download or transfer the application-backup.tar.gz file to a safe location.
Follow these steps:
Change to the directory containing your backup:
$ cd /your/directory
Stop all servers:
$ sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh stop
Move the current stack to a different location:
$ sudo mv /opt/bitnami /tmp/bitnami-backup
Uncompress the backup file to the original directoryv
$ sudo tar -pxzvf application-backup.tar.gz -C /
Start all servers:
$ sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh start
If you want to create only a database backup, refer to these instructions for MySQL and PostgreSQL.

Regular walking has gotten a little dull, no? Point A to point B. Yawn.
In our opinion, it could use a little mystery. Maybe some treasure. And some little green men wouldn't hurt. Good thing someone (we're looking at you, F5 tbl) came up with TrailHit, a stupendously awesome location-based real world treasure hunt game for Android.
Which means your regular walking route gets a makeover as you find the elusive trail and restore the "Great Device".
There's a backstory to this game that's a bit of a treasure hunt in itself—there are so many players and plot lines that following them was like searching for clues. But all we need to know is that it's gotten a 4.8 rating from some very enthused users, and recently implemented Socialize to give it some extra oomph!
Now players can chat with each other to share tips, connect and even swap funny stories (like escaping the neighborhood dog…see screenshot below)! And our SmartAlerts feature lets them stay on top of their own and others' activity with push notifications.
Socializing their app has gone so smoothly, we've been given a +1 by the developer:
"I just want to say that TrailHit for Android implemented Socialize and everything passed smooth and in a sec. For now, big +1 for Socialize.
Keep doing great job!"
You can download TrailHit here. Happy trails (and watch out for dogs)!
