Less than three months ago, I discovered that alpha-lipoic acid was protective against glaucoma and could reduce the pressure in my eyes. After taking one capsule a day for six weeks, I noticed a marked improvement in my eyesight. After taking the tablets for two and a half months, sure enough, the pressure has gone down to 20 mmHg (left) and 18 mmHg (right). - Patricia Knox, Holyhead
WDDTY replies: Alpha-lipoic acid, or ALA, is a potent antioxidant (far more so than vitamins C and E) that increases glutathione (for cellular energy and proper immune function), and helps all conditions due to increased insulin production and abnormal glucose metabolism, including diabetes, high cholesterol, glaucoma, cataracts and hardening of the arteries. Research has demonstrated its effectiveness in treating glaucoma (Vest Oftalmol, 1995; 111: 68) and cataracts (Ann NY Acad Sci, 1994; 738: 257-64). The usual dose is 50-100 mg twice a day; higher dosages can cause nausea, upset stomach and even low blood sugar. Its presence in greens, such as spinach, accounts for the Popeye effect (see WDDTY vol 15 no 3's special report). It's also found in liver and brewer's yeast.

Toxic emissions from San Joaquin County factories and power plants continue to decline, according to data released this week by the Environmental Protection Agency.
Toxic emissions from San Joaquin County factories and power plants continue to decline, according to data released this week by the Environmental Protection Agency.
This is a long-term trend. The level of emissions reported in 2011 - the most recent data available - was about one-tenth of the level of emissions seen in the early 2000s.
Tighter environmental restrictions and, of late, the poor economy have been identified as reasons for the decline. Some older, dirtier facilities, such as coal power plants, have been shuttered as the state seeks cleaner energy solutions.
Following are highlights from the data:
Since 1987, facilities of a certain size have been required to report emissions to the EPA. As many as 650 chemicals are covered in the yearly reporting.
The information is made available to give the public "widespread access to valuable environmental information," and to hold polluters accountable while acknowledging those that have taken steps to reduce emissions, EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson said in a statement.
The EPA doesn't attempt to gauge the risk to public health from local emissions, nor does it attempt to say how dangerous particular factories and power plants might be.
The information can, however, give you a general idea which facilities in your area are releasing chemicals into air, land or water.
No. Anyone who drives a car or truck is culpable. Tailpipe emissions account for about 80 percent of the San Joaquin Valley's smog problem.
While San Joaquin facilities reported record-low emissions in 2011, those numbers are already out of date.
The county's top polluter that year, the Stockton CoGen coal power plant in south Stockton, shut down in 2012 with the goal of eventually reopening as a renewable energy plant.
Also, while EPA reported an 81 percent decline in emissions in 2011 compared with 2010, that number is misleading. Hundreds of thousands of pounds of pollution in 2010 were inaccurately attributed to Pacific Ethanol Inc.'s Stockton plant, despite the fact that the plant was shut down most of that year, a company spokesman said.
Pacific Ethanol has since resumed operations and reported more modest emission levels in 2011.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Acupuncture isn't just for humans anymore.
A clinic in Gainesville is providing holistic health care for animals.
Pets at the Holistic Veterinary Animal Clinic can get herbal therapy and acupuncture, among other treatments.
Owner and veterinarian Jennifer Harl tells the Gainesville Sun she sees a need for holistic animal care incorporating both Eastern and Western forms of medicine. The holistic approach combines nutrition and wellness and focuses on prevention rather than just responding to an illness.
Harl says her own yellow Labrador retriever saw an improvement in mobility after undergoing acupuncture for arthritis.

Marian Fattig, 83 - January 15, 2013Marian S. Fattig, 83, of Brady passed away Tuesday, Jan. 15, 2013, at Golden Living Center in Cozad.
Services will take place at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 19, at the Blase-Strauser Memorial Chapel, 620 10th St. in Gothenburg with the Rev. Janie Freeman officiating. A private family burial will be conducted at Fort McPherson National Cemetery.
A closed casket visitation will be Friday, Jan. 18, from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. at Blase-Strauser Memorial Chapel.
Fattig was born Dec. 18, 1929, at Brady to Edwin and Edith Brown Hoaglund. She attended Brady High School and earned an associate degree at Mid-Plains Community College.
She married her husband of 63 years, Dale Forrest Fattig, on June 1, 1947, at the Brady Methodist Church. The couple spent the early years of their marriage homesteading on Mirage Flats in Sheridan County. After their return in 1951, she worked for a time as a switchboard operator for the telephone company in Brady.
Fattig and her husband moved to a farm in 1957 that would become their home for the rest of their lives. After the family aquaculture business, Fattig Fish, was founded the same year, she became instrumental in the operation's continued success.
While she devoted most of her time to raising her six children, she also cared for a plethora of other flora and fauna, including Simmental and Gelbvieh cattle, Schnauzers, songbirds and a diverse collection of beautiful flowers and trees.
Equally as diverse were her interests as she participated in many political and civic activities in Lincoln County, often campaigning for candidates and helped administer the national census.
She enjoyed crocheting and embroidering, painting watercolors, solving crosswords and reading novels and poetry, family members said.
Children were at the center of her heart and, after her own children left home, she studied child development at the University Nebraska at Kearney, and often babysat. She was devoted to her many grandchildren, and the arrival of her great-grandchildren brought a renewed sense of joy into her life, the family said.
Fattig was preceded in death by: her husband, Dale; her parents, Edwin and Edith; two brothers—Richard "Eugene" Hoaglund and Vernon "Shorty" Hoaglund.
Survivors include: her three sons—Roger (Melanie) Fattig and Mark Fattig, all of North Platte, and Bruce (Ann) Fattig of Kearney; three daughters—Susan (John Grasser) of Chevy Chase, MD, Sharon (Cliff) Johnson of Wellingborough, England, and Carol (Barry) Rich, of Brady; 15 grandchildren—Elissa, Crystal, Ethan, Brandon, Lauren, Sarah, Ted, Katherine, Eric, John Pierce "JP," Elisabeth, Cody, Kirsten, Caelea and Lilian; 12 great-grandchildren—Isaac, Jonah, Kyrie, Carly, Chloe, Dale, Madden, Adelyn, Steven, Beatrix, Emmett and Rylan; numerous other family members.
Memorials are suggested to the Alzheimer's Association, 1500 S. 70th St., Suite 201, Lincoln, NE 68506, the American Heart Association, 105 Apache Dr. Lexington, NE 68850, and the Callahan Oncology Center, P.O. Box 1167, North Platte, NE 69103.

The field of 15 candidates is set for the upcoming special election to succeed Mick Mulvaney in the U.S. House.
The two-week-long filing period ended at noon Monday, with three Democrats, seven Republicans and five third-party candidates signing up for the 5th District race.
Mulvaney, the Indian Land Republican who had just won his fourth congressional term in November, resigned in February when he became President Trump's budget director.
Voters will now have three parties to choose from in the race to replace Mick Mulvaney in the U.S. House.
American Party candidate Josh Thornton announced Monday that he will seek the seat in the upcoming special election.
Thornton, 41, is a public/private school educator from Rock Hill. He said in a release that voters deserve a positive choice that isn't a career politician within the framework of a broken two-party system that leads to unprecedented gridlock.
The two-week filing period for the vacant 5th District congressional seat opens at noon today.
Candidates may file through noon March 13 at the State Election Commission, 1122 Lady Street in Columbia.
The district includes Lancaster, Cherokee, Chester, Fairfield, Kershaw, Lee, Newberry, Spartanburg, Sumter, Union and York counties.
Rep. Mick Mulvaney of Indian Land resigned the seat Feb. 16 after he was confirmed as President Trump's director of the Office of Management and Budget.
COLUMBIA – The S.C. House voted Wednesday to increase the state's gas tax by two cents a gallon each year for the next five years to fix the state's crumbling roads and bridges.
When fully phased in, the increase would raise an estimated $600 million per year.
The bipartisan vote was 97-18, with two members of Lancaster County's House delegation – Speaker Jay Lucas (R-65) and Brandon Newton (R-45) voting for the plan.
KERSHAW – People want to get paid for the work they do.
Kershaw Town Officials have shifted $100,000 from one town account to another to make sure Corbett Construction – the company that's installing a new 6,000-foot-long water line along Church Street – gets its money in a timely fashion.
The water line is part of an ongoing $2.23 million project that ties Haile Gold Mine to the town's water system.
More than 50 Indian Land homeowners, wearing red shirts and hot under the collar, stormed out of Monday night's county council meeting after the council reversed itself and voted 5-2 in favor of McClancy Seasoning's rezoning request.
As the five hands went up in approval, people in the audience gasped, and some shouted out comments before abruptly leaving the council chambers.
"You're kidding me!"
"See you in court!"
"Shameful disgrace. We will vote you out!"
The city of Lancaster has awarded $100,000 in hospitality-tax grants to stimulate tourism downtown, including $30,400 to help build a new front porch roof and doors at the Lancaster County Community Center on East Meeting Street.
"This is definitely good news," said Dr. Charmaine Stradford, vice chair of the community center board. "I'm happy" to get any money from the city for the project.
Two new developments are pushing ahead the dispute over the Lancaster City Council District 3 election, with SLED gathering documentation about absentee ballots used in the race, and incumbent Jackie Harris taking her complaint against challenger Linda Blackmon directly to the S.C. Supreme Court.
And then there were seven.
The Republican field of candidates for the 5th District congressional seat grew yet again Tuesday to include former businesswoman and volunteer Penry Gustafson of Camden.
Gustafson, 46, is a former sales representative for Delta Foremost Chemical Corp., a longtime Kershaw County GOP member and a community volunteer for such local and regional organizations as Meals on Wheels and Operation Inasmuch.
Gustafson said she was running as an alternative to "today's toxic political environment."
Mayor John Howard and city council member Tamara Green Garris tangled this week over the city staff's recommendation that certain information technology employees receive pay raises.
Howard called Garris' questions about the raises "petty jealousy surrounding a mid-year budget review," saying "it's damn ridiculous. Pardon my language."
Garris shot back: "Excuse me, do not curse at me. I didn't make that motion," to which Howard replied, "I did not curse at you."

Man charged in MATC stabbing sentenced
Ruben Casarez pleads guilty to stabbing ex-girlfriend in MATC building
A man who pleaded guilty to stabbing his ex-girlfriend in a Milwaukee Area Technical College building was sentenced to 23 years in prison Tuesday.
Ruben Casarez, 24, pleaded guilty in February to a felony charge of first-degree intentional homicide.
According to the criminal complaint, Casarez met his ex-girlfriend at an MATC building in downtown Milwaukee on Sept. 12, 2012.
The complaint states the woman told Casarez that she did not want to reconcile with him.
Witnesses told police they heard screams from behind a door in the campus building. When they broke in, they found Casarez stabbing the woman.
The woman had filed a restraining order against Casarez in March of 2012, and violated that order several days after.
Casarez had been released from jail four days prior to the incident at MATC.
The judge also gave Casarez 20 years of extended supervision.

The "I" in "Team": Persona, Dialect and the Lyric First Person
As readers we sometimes assume the "I" in a poem is the same as the poet's me. The lyric poet may promote this illusion of spontaneous utterance and unmediated feeling. But the poet who believes the speaker in a poem is "me" may also be suffering an illusion that will mire the poem in mediocrity. How then do we reconcile the seeming contradictory demands of sincerity and craft? And how might the self be most evident in poems that foreground pretense and masquerade?

My passion for wildlife was stimulated in my teenage years, mainly thanks to my Mum (a biology teacher) who made me look at the world differently and being inspired by writers such as Paul Colinvaux. This early interest developed into biological research in my 20s, when I did practical conservation work in places such as the Comores and Mongolia.
Today, any free time I have I spend pottering around the flatlands of East Anglia or escaping to our hut on the Northumberland coast looking for wildlife and castles with my wife and children.
I studied Biological Sciences at Oxford and Conservation at UCL, and worked at Wildlife and Countryside Link before spending five years as Conservation Director at Plantlife.
I joined the RSPB as Head of Government Affairs in 2004, became Head of Sustainable Development in 2006, before becoming Conservation Director in 2011.
This week I am looking at the role that business can play in protecting the planet.
But for a business to remain in business, they do need consumers to buy their products or services. And that means we all have a role to play.
Even at breakfast.
Because if you start your day with Jordan's cereal and a couple of slices of toast made from Allinson Bread, you'll be helping wildlife from the comfort of your kitchen.
These are just two brands that support Conservation Grade - a scheme encouraging nature friendly farming. Farmers that supply conservation grade products are obliged to allocate 10% of their land to create wildlife habitats. This is on a par with what we do at our Hope Farm. And, as at Hope Farm, Conservation Grade farms have more wildlife. It is estimated that they are home to five times more wildlife than conventional farms.
They achieve this by being pretty prescriptive about which habitats farmers need to manage to get the most wildlife on their land. Nearly all Conservation Grade farmers will be rewarded through agri-environment schemes and then receive a premium payment on top.
And, in farmers like Robert Law (former Farmer of the Year and Nature of Farmng Award regional winner), they have fabulous advocates. Sometimes it takes a farmer to convince a farmer"
I am a fan of Conservation Grade and any other schemes that drive up standards. I hope that their market share grows. And let's remember that we, as nature-loving consumers, can help make that happen by choosing the right products when we shop.
Do you buy Conservation Grade products? If not, why not?
It would be great to hear your views.
Recent talk about 'responsible capitalism' has tended to focus on issues of equity and social justice. Yet business also has a responsibility to the environment.
This week, I want to explore where business can step up to do more for nature.
Many multinationals, and some large domestic businesses, have global reach. They connect people with nature in many different ways – through their supply chains and products in particular. Their brands shape popular values and some of them reach billions of people every day. Companies influence governments, both in relation to particular decisions and legislation and policy. They emit a high proportion of greenhouse gases, consume resources and control or influence how large areas of land are managed.
It's easy to assume that 'advocacy' and 'influencing decision-makers' starts and ends with politicians and government departments. But big businesses have an equally large influence our lives - and probably an even greater influence on the environment. So focusing your influencing efforts on the policy sphere means that you are only doing (at best) 50% of the job.
If we want to achieve long-term success, we cannot simply rely on governments to do the right thing. We need companies to align with our conservation goals, and not only those of shareholders.
The RSPB works with private companies all the time: we advise thousands of family farms about nature friendly farming every year; we have helped reshape the way that water companies manage their estates for water and for wildlife; we influence hundreds of development decisions; we continue to enter into a number of partnerships to support conservation management (especially on our nature reserves); and we do benefit from corporate sponsorship such as the much enjoyed Black Grouse whisky.
But we can and should do more. We want business to reduce the environmental impact of their operations and advocate change within their own sector. Practicing and preaching sustainability should be key features of any responsible business.
And irresponsible businesses that seek to weaken environmental regulations should be exposed as self-serving and not acting in the public interest. I hope that, in the run up to important decisions about planning reform and the Habitats Regulations, UK Government ministers remember that fact.
What role do you think that businesses have in saving the planet? And what do you think the RSPB should do about it?
I was happy with the morning's work.
Despite the mist, the five kids and I were relatively happy with our nine species: blue tit (3), chaffinch (2), collared dove (2), robin (1), dunnock (1), house sparrow (1), carrion crow (1), woodpigeon (2) and blackbird (1).
We were a little short on previous years. There may have been more (species, not kids), but we had to cope with various distractions. A lego version of Camelot's court and a brace of Mums proved too much for some. But for our small suburban garden it was OK.
Just one of the kids (not mine) saw it through. At five, she is mainly interested in dinosaurs so I explained the evolutionary link. She indulged me until I quoted Robert Bakker "when you see the geese honking overhead, say - the dinosaurs are migrating, it must be spring!". And then she was gone.
Here's hoping that another 600,000 or so folk saw it through and had a great weekend.

American Triple T Race Report: Sick Puppy
By Scott Simpson
May 31, 2010
For those not in the know, this is 4 races in 3 days and totals just slightly more than the ironman distance. Many folks use it as a training weekend for their ironman race this summer. Some are racing in the team division, but like most, I'm doing the solo version.
It all starts late Friday afternoon with the prologue super sprint: 250 metre swim, 5 mile bike, 1 mile run. Saturday consists of an olympic distance race (1500 metre swim, 40 km bike, 10 km run) in the morning followed by another olympic distance race in mid-afternoon. The twist for this third race is that the bike is first, followed by the swim, and ending with the run. Then Sunday tops it all off with a half-ironman race: 2 km swim, 90 km bike, 21.1 km run. The bike courses are notorious for the hills, hills, and more hills.
Lady luck smiled on me the previous day as I managed to snag a room at the sold out lodge at the race site when a team pulled out of the event at the last moment. Since I had only entered the race a month earlier, the closest hotel I could find was 40 minutes away but I was able to cancel my reservation without penalty. Now I could just ride my bike to each race. Sweet.
I was using the races as a training weekend toward my 2 major goals: Gay Games olympic triathlon in Cologne on August 1st and Ironman Louisville 4 weeks later. As such, the Triple T races were to finish off a training block and to be followed by some very easy -- and well deserved -- recovery days. So the day before I drove down I had a hard training day on the hottest day so far this year in my 'hood: 45 minute swim, 5:45 bike + 30 min run = 7 hours. Waking up at 3 am to drive after that is friggin' difficult, I tell ya.
Having spent 10 hours driving to the race site in Shawnee State Park in southern Ohio (which included a frantic hour in Columbus locating a triathlon store and buying a wetsuit because 3 hours into the drive I realized I forgot to pack the one I had -- duh!) I pulled into a parking spot at the lodge as other athletes milled about.
As I get out of my car I asked the guy in the next parking spot where the front desk was located, as he turned to answer me I recognized him: Alain, my nemesissy from the Outgames last summer in Denmark (where he crushed me in the cycling time trial race in spite of crashing, but I gained revenge by whipping his ass in the triathlon). He was racing in the team division with his buddy Mark and they registered their team name as "Canadian Fags" -- so appropo and ballsy in the homophobic bible belt. Mark would break a toe in race #2 but that didn't seem to slow him down much -- he finished the rest of the tough and challenging weekend.
Then lady luck frowned at me. As I settled into my room and started to prep for the prologue race I started to feel sick. The sick feeling reminded me of when I get too little sleep and since I had 2 nights in a row of short sleep, I figured I just needed a good night's snooze. By the time the race started I was feeling pretty crappy. My original intention was to make this race as easy as possible -- I was going to go slow and not stress my body. I was not "racing" and didn't care how many people passed me. During the race I actually felt ok but within minutes of finishing the sick feeling returned. After inhaling some food and my meds I was in bed by 7 pm and sleeping shortly thereafter.
I woke up shortly before 6 am feeling worse. I managed to force down a couple of bites of food with my meds but puked most of it all up a few minutes later when I was brushing my teeth. Once in the transition and set up, I laid down beside my bike and debated whether or not I should start the race.
The debate went like this: I drove 10 hours for these races. Yeah, but I was so sick for 5 weeks in the spring I couldn't train, I don't want to get that sick again. But this doesn't feel like the same type of sickness as before, so if I take it real easy during the race I'll be okay. This is only a training weekend, it doesn't matter in the larger picture, being healthy 2 months from now is what matters. Go back to your room. But I paid a $250 entry fee, I don't want to waste it. Nor do I want to pass out and end up in the hospital. This is why I bought travel health insurance. Racing while I'm sick will only make me sicker. Suck it up, Buttercup.
I wandered down to the start line. As competitors lined up on the beach chatting and excited to get started, I lay atop a picnic table as the debate raged on in my head. Finally I dragged my ass down to the beach and pulled a friend aside and asked her if she was cool with me referring paramedics to her should things go from bad to worse for me. I was feeling that rough. But here's the strange thing: within moments of starting to swim I felt okay. So I continued on very easily, constantly reminding myself to hold back, slow down, stay relaxed.
I felt dizzy when I stood up after the first loop of the swim and again at the finish and bounced off the railing on the way to my bike but otherwise was feeling much better than before I started. The hills on the bike course made keeping my effort low a bit of a challenge but I managed to consume some calories and fluids. The run course was also hilly and there is just no 2 ways about it -- running up hills requires effort, but I kept plodding along at what I was calling a jogging pace and finished race #2 feeling pretty good. Once back in my room I laid down for a nap and felt mildly sickish with alternating cold and hot periods. I was definitely fighting some sort of bug but overall was doing better, but not great.
I had another lie down in transition waiting for race #3 to start and gave myself permission to quit if I started to feel worse during the race. But again, as soon as I started I felt better. I took it very easy on the bike -- well as much as one could in spite of the hills -- and then enjoyed swimming very easily -- a number of people had problems with cramping, but I hardly use my legs in the swim so avoided that experience - before heading out onto the tough run course for the second time that day. By the time I got to the turn around on the run, I was feeling good and figured that I must have fought off the bug. While some were walking the hills I just kept trotting along, keeping my effort as low as possible, happy that I was feeling good, that I was over being sick, and looking forward to the next day's long race.
That feeling didn't last long. Within 5 minutes of finishing I was feeling sick again and soon worse than before. Damn. I went back to my room and curled up under the bed covers. When Alain and Mark came to fetch me for dinner I said I could only manage to make it the lodge's restaurant, I was not up to driving 30 minutes to eat in town. Luckily the lodge was serving all you could eat pasta, so we headed down for some spaghetti and fettuccini, but I had to leave abruptly - I was afraid I was gonna puke right there in the restaurant. Not so appetizing for the other diners.
By this time I realized that doing a half ironman on a hilly course the next morning was probably not going to happen. Even the prospect of driving for 10 hours seemed daunting. As I drifted off to sleep I hoped that I would feel good in the morning, but I was not counting on it. I could hear my doctor's voice from my last appointment echoing in my head, "you know that your heavy training negatively impacts your immune system?"
Come morning I was still feeling sick, so wisely packed my stuff and headed home. Disappointed that I didn't finish what I started but content that I had made the right decisions along the way. Pleased that I had done 3 of the races in a very controlled fashion. I'm also happy with how my placing improved with each race. Of the almost 400 competitors, I had the 264th fastest time in the first race, the 206th fastest in the second race, and the 112th fastest in the third race. Not bad considering how sick I was and how much I was holding back.
Special shout out to my gal pal Linnea and her bf Glenn who are racing Ironman Brazil this weekend. Linnea is a major contender for the win in her age group, tough as nails, and very consistent no matter how difficult conditions get. Go get 'em girl!

By the end of September bucks begin reacting to increased testosterone in their system. This natural sex drug causes them to become more aggressive toward bucks that were just recently part of their summer bachelor group. It also drives them to deposit more and more of their scent as they prepare for the rut. From now until mid-November scent marking their home range will increase with each passing day. One of the chief ways they do this is by making scrapes.
Scraping behavior from mid-September to mid-October consists primarily of a buck rubbing his preorbital, nasal and forehead glands on the overhanging licking branch to leave as much scent as possible at the scrape site. In the process of working the licking branch a buck will often also salivate heavily on the branch. One step in the early-season scrape-making process that is different from late October and November scraping, is that bucks will seldom paw the ground bare under the branch during the early season.
If the licking branch is along the edge of a food source or a well-used trail, all bucks and many does will work the branch to leave their scent. As autumn rolls on these locations can turn into prime hunting locations.
Recent research proves that the licking branch is the No. 1 key to success when hunting a mock scrape. Furthermore, the key to that licking branch is preorbital scent. Bucks secrete this scent as a means of distinctly identifying themselves from the "competition." Bucks regularly visit licking branches and become aware when a new rival shows up — the licking branch has the scent of a guy they don't know.
For the first time ever, preorbital lure is available to the general public and now can be yours! Each bottle contains matching glands from individual bucks and comes in a 1.25oz bottle.

Because Pallab Chattejee went to upwards of 78 technical conferences last year, he probably knows a thing or two about the status of the industry today. It also helps that he's a long-time IC design adviser, CTO of SiliconMap, a consultancy, and is ramping up a new online publishing presence, Media & Entertainment Technologies, with long-time tech guru Tets Maniwa.
Among his many involvements, including the IEEE Nanotech Council and U.C. Berkeley's Engineering Alumni Society, Pallab has been associated with the International Symposium on Quality Electronic Design for all of its 13 years.
He's headed up most of the committees at one point or another, and this year is serving for a second time as General Chair, so it's not a complete surprise that Pallab has been named an ISQED 2012 Fellow.
What is a surprise, is Pallab's candid assessment of the messages that are often the stuff of conference keynote speeches – even those given at ISQED – particularly when those speeches are offered up by EDA vendors or foundries. (more…)

System Monitoring Tutorial for Newbies.
Dear AO. This tutorial is a brief introduction on how to monitor your linux systems and to let various logfiles make sense to you. I want to introduce 3 kinds of monitoring.
1 How to protocol different system messages and how to configure the Syslog Daemon.
2 & 3 Knowing some of the different Protocol files on your system.
4 Programs used to monitor disk space.
Please forgive any bad English or weird typos that i might make
1 The Syslog Daemon.
The syslog daemon is used by many other system services, to log many different events. The advantage of this daemon is that there is only one file which holds the protocols/logs, making it easier to maintain an overview.
The Syslog Daemon takes system messages from the different services and logs them depending on its configuration file which can be found in /etc/syslog.conf
# /etc/syslog.conf Configuration file for syslogd.(8)
# For more info about the format of this file, see man syslog.conf.
# print most on tty10 and on the xconsole pipe
kern.warn;*.err;authpriv.none /dev/tty10
kern.warn;*.err;authpriv.none |/dev/xconsole
# enable this, if you want that root is informed
# immediately, e.g. Of logins
#*.alert root
The file /etc/syslog.conf has a rule for each line. Every rule is split up into 2 fields which are seperated either with a space or by pressing the TAB button. The first field contains the category, which is seperated by decimal points, asigning it that way into a certain priority. The second field is what will happen with the system message once it appears. The category lists the subsystem, which provides the system message.
Every application which you want syslog to log for you will be categorized into one or more of the following categories:
authpriv, cron, daemon, kern, lpr, mail, news, syslog, user, uucp, local0 to local7.
The definitions of the categories are as follows:
authpriv is used by all services that have to do with system security or system authorization. All messages coming from PAM uses this categorie. The ssh daemon still uses the category auth, which actually should in combination with the category security, be triggered by authpriv.
cron takes the messages from the cron and the at daemons.
daemon is used by different other daemons, which dont have its own category (eg. Th ppp-daemon).
kern is its own category for kernel messages.
lpr for printer messages.
mail is the category used only by the mail systems. This is important since many system messages can show up.
news is the category used by the news systems. Same like in the mail systems, many messages can occur within short time.
syslog Internal messages generated for the syslog daemon.
user General category for system messages from the users. eg. The program login uses this category to record all failed logins (and successful logins if login is configured to do so).
uucp are the messages from the uucp-systems.
local0 to local7 There are 8 categories available, which can each be used for a single application. This way you can maintain different applications individually within the /etc/syslog.conf file.
The priority defines the importance of each system message. They are as follows listed from the smallest priority to the highest priority:
debug should really only be used for error analysis, since all other priorities are much higher.
info is the priority used to get information only.
notice is for system messages which you should pay attention to.
warning is for messages which occur if anything outside the normal happens.
err This priority shows any system errors that might occur.
crit Shows any critical system messages.
alert If this shows up in your logfiles, then a system administrator's intervention is required, in order to keep the system running.
emerg Well, if you get this message, then its normally to late. This means that the system is not usable.
Like i mentioned earlier, the second field is used to how to let the system know what to do once an error message occurs.
A - Specification of a file:
With the - character infront of the filename, you can specify that the file is NOT synchronized after every system message entry.
Mail.* -/var/log/mail
B Specification of a device file for tty:
All the wanted system messages are to be displayed to a tty of your choice. The default for suse linux is tty10.
kern.warn;*.err;authpriv.none /dev/tty10
C Specification of a userlist:
All logged in users get an entry inside the tty specified above (tty10 in this case). (This does not work on all terminal types.)
*.alert root,instronics,anyuseryouwant
D Specification of a hostname labelled with the @ character:
System messages will be forwarded to the specified hostname's syslog daemon, and logged there depending on its configuration.
*.* @computer2.domain.com
All logged in users get a message using wall:
*.crit *
The rules which you setup are always valid for the listed prioritym and all other higher priorities:
A By adding the = character in front of the priority the rule is set only to this priority.
.=warn;.=err -/var/log/warn
B If you use the ! character in front of the priority, then this and all higher priorities are excluded from the logging.
Mail.*;mail.!=info /val/adm/mail
C If you use the * character, then its for ALL categories and priorities. If you wish to assign them all, but exclude one or the other, then use the priority none.
*.*;mail.none;news.none -/var/log/messages
In addition you can specify start parameters for the syslog daemon by activating the SYSLOGD_PARAMS inside the /etc/rc.config file. eg. If you want your syslog daemon to accept logs from remote hosts, you would have to activate the syslogd_params with the parameter -r.
Below is the example for the /etc/rc.config:
# if not empty: parameters for syslogd
# for example SYSLOGD_PARAMS=-r -s my.dom.ain
2 Important Logfiles.
The log files with the most entries is the /var/log/messages. Here you will find almost any messages regarding your system. (Its wise to not let the firewall log's entries to be posted in here, so its easier to have a clean overview of your system messages.) Inside you /var/log/messages you will see the word --MARK--. These entries are from your syslog daemon. If they are missing inside the messages logfile, then it means that the syslog daemon is not running or is not working correctly. The easiest way to view the logfiles is by using the command tail.
instronics:~# tail /var/log/messages
With tail -10 it will show you the last 10 lines within your /var/log/messages. Any number you specify will show you the amount of entries inside the logfile. To see it in real time, use the -f option.
instronics:~# tail -f /var/log/messages
You can also combine it to show you for example the last 20 lines AND also real time monitoring.eg:
instronics:~# tail -20 -f /var/log/messages
The -f means that it will show you the file in interactive mode. To leave the interactive mode press CTRL + C.
(Isn't linux shell a wonderfull thing .)
The messages from the mail systems are listed in /var/log/mail, for the news services, its in /var/log/news. The boot messages are inside /var/log/boot.msg Since the boot messages are displayed in a rather weird format, its advisable to view them using dmesg. Another important logfile is /var/log/wtmp. This file is in binary, and can be viewed using the last command. The syslog daemon posts all the entries from these various logfiles into one tty in real time.
3 Size of the Logfiles.
The size of the logfiles are guarded automatically. The script /etc/cron.daily/aaa_base_rotate_logs is executed daily by the cron daemon. It gets its information from /etc/logfiles, thats were the logfiles and logfile sizes are set. (You can define how big you wish your logfiles to become.) Once the logfile has reached its maximum size, its automatically compressed with gzip and a new empty logfile is created. The way the new empty file is created can also be set inside /etc/logfiles.
Below is a small copy paste of my /etc/logfiles (modified for my security reasons).
# This file tells cron.daily, which log files have to be watched
# File max size mode ownership service reload if changed.
/var/log/mgetty.* +1024k 644 root.root
/var/log/messages +2048k 644 root.root
/var/log/vgetty.* +1024k 644 root.root
/var/log/isdn.log +1024k 644 root.root
/var/log/myfirewall +2048k 644 instronics.instronics
Not only the size is being watched, but also the age of the logfile. For this the script /etc/cron.daily/aaa_base_rotate_logs reads the variable MAX_DAYS_FOR_LOG_FILES from the /etc/rc.config file. If the entry there is greater than 0, then all logfiles (also the older compressed ones) will be checked against their age. All files which are older than the ones set in MAX_DAYS_FOR_LOG_FILES will be deleted automatically. (Be sure to keep a backup of them before they get deleted.) Some files must be restarted/rehashed when re-created. The files which require this are also set inside the /etc/logfiles on the right hand side named Service reload if changed. The administrator can also set inside the MAX_DAYS_FOR_LOG_FILES how long the logfiles are to be kept before automatic delete takes place.
4 Monitoring Disk Space.
To monitor the amount of disk space used you can use the command df (disk free). This command is valid for any drive that is mounted. It shows how much space is used and how much space is still available. With the -h option, the df shows its entries in human readable form.
For example.
instronics:~# df
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda7 6433796 1903224 4530572 30% /
/dev/hda5 23302 4680 17419 22% /boot
/dev/hda1 2100360 1737904 362456 83% /windows/C
shmfs 63272 0 63272 0% /dev/shm
Pretty confusing if your not aware of your 101 on bits, bytes, kilobytes, megabytes etc.... So now try the human readable version.
instronics:~# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda7 6.2G 1.9G 4.4G 30% /
/dev/hda5 23M 4.6M 18M 22% /boot
/dev/hda1 2.1G 1.7G 354M 83% /windows/C
shmfs 62M 0 62M 0% /dev/shm
If you would like to know the size of single files or folders, then nuse the command du'(disk usage). That will show you the exact size of every file or folder within the path where you enter that command. Again here you can use the -h option to make it readable for humans. There are some more very interesting options that can be used in combination with the du command. Do a man du for more info on them. An example of du is:
instronics:~#> cd Desktop
instronics:~#/Desktop> du
0 ./Freaks/ids
0 ./Freaks/library
778 ./Freaks
128468 ./Trash
115833 ./linux
245218 .
So in human form it would look like this:
instronics:~#/Desktop>du -h
0 ./Freaks/ids
0 ./Freaks/library
778K ./Freaks
126M ./Trash
114M ./linux
Another helpful program in general is called xlogmaster. Im not sure on which linux distributions it can be found, its on my SuSE Linux. I cannot describe how to use it, since i uses shell scripting todo all that for me. But in any case its worth a look at. Always remember, that logfiles are VITAL to a healthy system and sometimes they are your only help in finding out information if you have been compromised or if your system has problems. Also do not forget to read your logfiles regularly. Read them!
I hope this has been of help for some of your newbies out there. Good luck.

I like the book a lot because there was a lot of treasure in the tomb. My favorite part was when Howard Carter found the tomb.
My favorite character was Howard Carter because he worked hard in the Valley of the Kings for a long time. I would not like to be him.
I liked the book because it's very exciting when he opened the door of King Tut's tomb. He was very happy and excited.
I recommend this book to people who like ancient treasure. All ages will like this book.

Francis, 55, is in his 12th season in management with the Hurricanes and has served as executive vice-president and general manager for four years.
"Since I took control of the team, I've had a good chance to be around and assess the operations," team owner Tom Dundon said, via NHL.com.
"There are a lot of good people working in the organisation, but I feel that a change in direction is needed when it comes to hockey personnel decisions.
"Ron is a smart and talented hockey man. I am glad that he will continue to be a part of the team, serving in this new role."
The Hurricanes (29-27-11) are currently searching for a new general manager to replace Francis.

- World Cup
Enough is enough, Suarez
Twenty years on, every single moment remains. Yordan Letchkov hurling himself into a header. Roberto Baggio single-handedly dragging Italy to within the slenderest of whiskers of triumph. The genius of Gheorghe Hagi, the Maradona of the Carpathians and the demons of Diego, the Maradona of everywhere. Rashidi Yekini billowing into the net, Romario and Bebeto rocking the baby, South Korea's inventive free-kick routines.
You always remember your first, they say. My first was 1990 - Gazza and Brehme and Sergio Goycochea and all that - but it is 1994, played out in those cavernous bowls across the United States, that provides the first images whenever those two magic words, World Cup, are mentioned.
History has it that 1994 was not a vintage tournament. It was certainly capped by a final so impossibly dull that you wonder whether it was part of a conspiracy, concocted in Europe and South America, to ensure that the United States never took any interest in the game whatsoever. The theory runs that it was overly cautious, overly cynical, won by what might rank as the most functional team ever to take to a field wearing Brazilian shirts.
But that is one of the incontrovertible truths of the World Cup: When you first come to it, when you are first captivated by its magic, you are not in possession of a historical perspective. It is your first, or your second, and all of it is so unimaginably glamorous - all these unknown names, all these exotic teams - that the quality of the football is almost secondary. You are not in a position to say that the overall quality is lower than in Germany, 1974, or that 1982 was a more heart-pounding event. All you see is the world unfurling to meet you.
USA '94 was also scarred, of course, by two moments of extreme violence and one of career-ending disgrace: the elbows, malicious and forceful, meted out by Mauro Tassotti and Leonardo to Luis Enrique and Tab Ramos, and the shameful departure of Maradona, his doping no real surprise after his snarl into a camera during Argentina's game with Greece.
Those events were shocking to a wide-eyed ingenue. The blood pouring down Enrique's face, the sheer venom with which Leonardo lashed out at Ramos, the thought that perhaps this spectacle, this carnival, was populated by cheats and swindlers and that none of it was right; it all threatened, somehow, to rob it of its sheen.
Twenty years on, though, every moment remains. There have always been controversies in the World Cup, moments that have prompted outrage and shock and anger. And yet it still holds the planet in its thrall, because with time that feeling fades and it becomes part of the tournament's folklore. It is a competition that represents everything that is wonderful about football, and that is more powerful than the shadows that stalk it.
Which brings us, in a roundabout way, on to Luis Suarez. By most estimations, unlike 1994, this has been a vintage tournament - one of thrilling, adventurous, buccaneering attacking, one of abundant goals and a surprising absence of controversy. It has mostly been played in what is euphemistically termed "the right spirit." Until now, of course; until Natal.
Italy's defeat to Uruguay was not quite the Battle of Santiago, but it is probably as close as the modern game is going to offer now that most forms of tackling are all but illegal. It was a spiteful, nasty little match with no rhythm and no style, full of petulance and pretence. It stood out in this World Cup - this World Cup of Portugal against the United States, Ghana against Germany, Spain against Holland - like a bruise.
Claudio Marchisio's challenge, for a while, seemed to have been its low point. It is hard to believe the Juventus midfield player, a thoughtful individual, deliberately set out to plant his studs into Uruguayan shin, but it was a red card nonetheless, the sort of tackle that need only be a little harder or a little higher to inflict very serious injury indeed.
And then - thankfully for Marchisio, and for Roy Hodgson and England, who can now slink home almost ignored - Suarez's dark side enveloped him again. What at first appeared to be a sly head-butt to Giorgio Chiellini turned out, on second look, to be a bite. Yet another bite.
It is almost hard to know what to say about this habit - for that, it seems, is what it is - of Suarez's, beyond that it is inexplicably odd. Children bite. Badly trained puppies and threatened cats and urban foxes bite. Adults do not bite. There is no point trying to examine why Suarez bites. A guess would be that it is a simple loss of self-control, but to be honest, the cod psychology is probably best left to professionals.
A few things we can be certain of, though, are these.
First, he did not bite because he wanted to leave Liverpool. That would be an extremely counter-productive approach. Barcelona and Real Madrid might not be run along strictly ethical, fair-trade lines, but even Florentino Perez has heard of PR. If his transgression has had any effect at all, it is to make it marginally more likely, now, that he will stay (although he probably won't).
No, Suarez's bite was not part of a sustained campaign. Suarez had 15 minutes left in a crucial World Cup game for the country he swears unstinting loyalty to in which he had been deeply ineffectual. He was not - amazing as it might be - even thinking about Liverpool at the time.
Second, that he bit someone, rather than punching someone or setting out to break their leg, does not make it OK. Whether you feel that a bite is more or less serious an offence than - for example - Leonardo's assault on Tab Ramos is up to you; that is a matter of personal taste. But the fact that one might be worse does not mean the other is acceptable. It is bad to elbow people in the face. It is also bad to bite them in the shoulder. This is very simple.
Third, it is time to take tribal loyalties out of this issue. Fans around the world are united in their belief that clubs are more than just businesses; they are community entities. That is why owners choose to describe themselves as "custodians"; it makes it all seem somehow less nakedly capitalistic. But this is a two-way street.
If a club is a community entity, it cannot be run according to the amoral code of a corporation. It cannot be the case that an employee gets away with anything because he or she produces. If a club is a community entity, then it must be represented as such. To excuse the transgressive behaviour of an individual is to put that person above the well-being of your club.
And fourth, perspective must be kept. USA '94 was the second time Maradona had been banned for drug use. The first was in 1991, when he tested positive for cocaine. He was banned for 15 months then. In 1994, he was thrown out of the World Cup and did not play again for a year. What Suarez has done - no matter how many times he has done it - is not as serious as doping. Calls for a life ban are over the top; so, too, is the idea that he should serve a longer punishment than someone who fails a drugs test.
That is not to say Suarez should not be punished. He should. It is hard to rely on FIFA to do anything at all, but it would be a great shame to see him continue playing in this tournament, and a long ban beyond that would be the order of the day - possibly just enough to ensure that he does not play international football again for a year or so.
It would also be nice to think that - and this is where setting aside tribalism becomes so important - some of those around him, some of those who protect him, might like to suggest: Enough; this time is enough. As long as his teammates insist he has done nothing wrong, he will be able to cultivate his belief that he is being victimised.
As long as his fans continue to defend him and laud him - whether with Liverpool or with Uruguay - there remains the heightened risk that he will do it again. Suarez evidently has an issue. It needs to be sorted out. He does not need to be told that he has done nothing wrong. That is what happened with Maradona.
There is, after all this negativity, one positive: Suarez's moment of shame will burn bright. His name will be castigated. It will provoke fury and scorn. But it will be forgotten. Not in the sense of how we remember him - that ship, Luis, has sailed - but in the sense, the much more important sense, of how we remember this tournament.
It was not a classic World Cup in 1994. This has the potential to be just that. It is reassuring to know that all of those people watching this, for whom this is their first, will remember not what they saw in Natal, not the darkness, but the light they have seen everywhere else. Leonardo, Maradona, Tassotti: Their names are forever tinged with their transgressions. So, too, will Suarez's. This tournament, though, this wonderful tournament, is far bigger than that.

Refs Should Sin-Bin For Second Holding Down Offence- Tallis
'Our game's about attacking'
Image: Melbourne Storm
Speaking with Marto, Ed & Robin this morning Gordy Tallis said he reckons players should be sin-binned for a second holding down offence.
"It's a ploy for most clubs- Brisbane did it on Thursday, where they just hold down in the tens and they're happy to give away penalties," he said.
"I would love to see the refs use the sin-bin more."
"If you're holding down at 10 metres to stifle their attack and to slow them down and you're prepared to back your defence..I think if you do it once, fair enough."
"The second time you do it, you've gotta send them to the bin."
"I'm over it mate, our game's about attacking."
Do you agree?

Old Media, New Media Need to Learn from Each Other
Online content publishers and publishing houses that produce print content, whether it be books, magazines or newspapers, sometimes have trouble understanding the very real differences between them. Yes, they both produce content — but they go about it very differently, which leads to different cultures. This can lead to frustration whenever the two cultures meet, or old media and new media companies try to compete with each other.

The inescapable conclusion, after watching a young French woman jerk Serena Williams around the tennis court at Wimbledon here Saturday like she had her on a string, is that Father Time has arrived for a talk.
Maybe, in Williams' case, it is Mother Time.
Williams is an amazing tennis player, the best female of her generation. Might continue to be. Her 17 major titles speak to that, of course. So do her five titles within these hallowed walls.
But sometimes, when it goes, it goes. With Williams, it remains difficult to be sure whether that is now. But ignoring the facts serves no purpose, not even hers.
She will be 33 on Sept. 26. She lost this year in the third round of the Australian Open and the first round of the French. She is strong and her game is built on power, but the size that gives her that power also makes it tougher and tougher to keep pace with lighter, scampering opponents.
That's what Alize Cornet of France, a 24-year-old seeded 24th, was — lighter, faster and with a tactic that played effectively to that in this third-round match.
Serena won the first set, 6-1, and it appeared to be yet another Williams domination on its way. But Cornet kept making Williams dart and dash, time after time, to the net to chase down drop shots.
At one point, late in the second set, Williams got to one, won the point and shook her fist angrily. It appeared to be in Cornet's direction, but all she would say afterward was that the drop shots "didn't frustrate me."
To admit that, of course, would be to open the door for others to use the same tactic.
Cornet said that an early rain delay messed her up and that she didn't get going until the second set.
"She dropped her concentration a little then," Cornet said of Williams, "and I used that. I started to play better, and the battle was on."
The final score of 1-6, 6-3, 6-4 does not fully reflect the intensity of that battle.
Cornet actually led in the second set, 5-0. Would she bagel Serena Williams? At Wimbledon? Was that even conceivable?
It was not. Williams, perhaps thinking the same thing, scratched and clawed and ran down drop shots and got back to within one break. But with Cornet serving at 5-3 and 30-all, Williams was slow to get to her left and yanked a backhand wide for set point. Then Cornet pulled her wide to her forehand side with a first serve and Williams didn't move quite fast enough to get in position to get it back.
In the third set, Cornet kept up the pace.
She used speed, deep ground strokes, mixed pace, and, always, at key and frustrating moments, drop shots.
Cornet served for the match at 5-2 and Williams broke her with a huge backhand winner. Cornet served for the match again, this time at 5-4. But there seemed to be no gas left in the Williams tank this time, no bounce in the step. She hit long, then got her timing thrown off by a net-cord and hit wide. At 30-love, she dumped an easy volley into the net.
And on match point, Cornet rubbed it in one last time. She had Williams tracking down yet another drop shot, the tactic that had been both effective and diabolical. Williams got there one more time, but hit it into the net.
It was an ending both symbolic and revealing.
After the match, a poised and personable Williams kept saying that she didn't really know what happened in the match. One suspects, deep down, she knows all too well.
"Usually I know, I did this, this, and that," he said. "I mean, I have some ideas, but this one will be a really a good one to kind of assess and figure out what I can do better next time."
She said there have been a few times in the past when she has come off the court and really had no idea what happened. Obviously, with her record, not many.
A questioner brought up the point that this will be the first time in eight years that neither she, nor sister Venus, will be in the singles draw in the second week of Wimbledon. She answered something about defending points, which did not address the issue.
It is always dangerous to speculate on when an athlete's decline has begun. Venus spoke to that Friday, after she had gone out in the third round as well in a long and tiring three-set match. Venus turned 34 on June 17.
"People are always retiring us," she said.
Serena Williams won two majors in 2012 and two more in 2013, including the U.S. Open. Flushing Meadows would be a good place and time to get people to stop writing about careers and twilights.
She was quizzed specifically about her past success compared to now. So, you think you are better now than you were then, the questioner asked.
"I would hope so," she said.
Alize Cornet and her drop shots might beg to differ.

Yogurt makers picked for school lunch program
Yogurt makers picked for school lunch program
School children in seven states will be eating New York yogurt this fall under a school lunch program operated by the federal government.
U.S. senators Kirsten Gillibrand and Charles Schumer announced that Chobani and Upstate Niagara won a bid to supply yogurt for the program.
The pilot initiative will provide yogurt to students in Arizona, California, Iowa, Idaho, Illinois, New York and Mississippi for the first month of the school year.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture is set to consider proposals to provide yogurt for the rest of the school year.
Gillibrand says the involvement by the state's yogurt industry is great news for the state's dairy industry.

I have talked to quite a few about it and never seem to come up with a solution. Its really odd too because I will have some of the skins of each rider work such as hubs, helmet, boots, etc yet most of the time I will not have the whole skin set working. Its been an annoying issue that I have had since SX last year. I will keep working on it until the next round. Which btw round 3 is one of the best tracks I have ever played in this game.

12 U.S. Code § 1701r - Congressional findings respecting housing for senior citizens
The Congress finds that there is a large and growing need for suitable housing for older people both in urban and rural areas. Our older citizens face special problems in meeting their housing needs because of the prevalence of modest and limited incomes among the elderly, their difficulty in obtaining liberal long-term home mortgage credit, and their need for housing planned and designed to include features necessary to the safety and convenience of the occupants in a suitable neighborhood environment. The Congress further finds that the present programs for housing the elderly under the Department of Housing and Urban Development have proven the value of Federal credit assistance in this field and at the same time demonstrated the urgent need for an expanded and more comprehensive effort to meet our responsibilities to our senior citizens.
Section was enacted as part of the Senior Citizens Housing Act of 1962, and not as part of the National Housing Act which comprises this chapter.
1967—Pub. L. 90–19 substituted "Department of Housing and Urban Development" for "Housing and Home Finance Agency" in second sentence.
