Milford Sound Day Walks: Hike Rainforest and Alpine Trails
Exploring on foot is one of the best ways to soak up Milford Sound's spectacular natural beauty.
The area offers a wealth of half and full day walk options you can enjoy without a guide.Walk through lush rainforest or explore alpine tracks leading to stunning waterfalls, ice fields and mountain lakes. Here's our top picks for the best day walking experiences the area has to offer.
Gertrude Valley – 4-5 Hours – Summer/Autumn
On this walk, hikers climb to Gertrude Saddle; an exciting and unforgettable alpine hiking experience that offers stunning mountain views, waterfalls and ice fields. The Gertrude Valley Track is one of New Zealand's most accessible alpine walks and is complete with sensational views to Milford Sound and the surrounding Darran Mountains. The first hour follows the valley floor before climbing large granite slabs and outcrops to Black Lake. Here, the ice fields above feed numerous waterfalls on rock faces all around the valley. The final exhilarating climb to Gertrude Saddle provides a rewarding vista of alpine peaks with the classic U-shaped, glacially carved valleys below. Take a picnic lunch and enjoy the alpine environment for the afternoon. This walk is not suitable in wet/wintery conditions.
A caution from Department of Conservation: Parts of the track are very steep and not suitable for those with limited tramping experience, or a dislike for heights. The track goes up steep rock slabs and is treacherous when wet or frosty - there are steel cables to assist you.
Grave Talbot – 3-4 Hours – Lower track all year, Upper track summer/autumn
Experience the ground-shuddering rumble that comes from walking next to a raging Fiordland River on this hike. This track follows the Gulliver River as it thunders down through the forest to the valley floor. Large rimu and beech trees line the river, providing a majestic canopy above the track. The upper reaches of the walk follows the Esperance River to emerge into the grasslands at the base of the rock walls below Mt McPherson. It's a 3-4 hour round-trip to the Esperance River grasslands, but this can be reduced to a shorter stroll along the Gulliver River. The upper track is exposed to avalanches in winter and spring.
Key Summit – 3 Hours – All year
Hike along a well-formed track to Key Summit for unforgettable 360-degree lake to sea views of Fiordland as well as vistas to Mt Christina and the Darran Mountains. This walk is suitable for all abilities with its well-formed "sandshoe" track right to the top. Hikers climb through stunted alpine vegetation, above the bush line and amongst alpine tarns. On clear days the panoramic views to Lake Te Anau and north past Mt Tutoko to Martins Bay are spectacular. In the right conditions, the summit is the perfect place for a picnic lunch or sunset drink. In winter and spring snow often occurs on the summit and sometimes along the length of the track.
Lake Marian – 3-4 Hours – All year
Choose to climb to a beautiful alpine lake alongside raging mountain rivers or take an easy 20-minute stroll along Marian Creek for exceptional views. Beautiful waterways are the main feature of this walk. From the rolling waters of the Hollyford River to raging Marian Creek and finally the picturesque Lake Marian, this walk showcases the area's diverse rivers, creeks and lakes. Hikers also get to enjoy spectacular views of the immense rock faces and alpine peaks that tower high above. In the warmer months the lake is an ideal place to lounge around in the sun and enjoy a refreshing swim. Along the way you'll leave the sand flies in the valley and enjoy soaking up the beauty of the alpine flowers that dot the track. In winter, hikers are able to watch spectacular avalanches roar down the mountains behind Lake Marian. This walk takes 3-4 hours comfortably, but does involve a consistent climb to the Lake. For a shorter experience, take 20 minutes to experience the thundering Marian Creek from a modern walkway with exceptional vantage points.
Tutoko – 5-6 Hours – All year
Walk through enchanting rainforest and enjoy views of Fiordland's highest peak on the Tutoko Track. A magical rainforest walk that's dotted with ferns, moss, lichens and bubbling streams, this track provides an opportunity to experience the unique rainforest flora along the valley floor. Hikers will also enjoy exceptional views of Mt Tutoko at 2834m (Fiordland's highest peak) at the end of the track. Watching the icefalls drop from the Herbert Icefields into the upper reaches of Leader Creek is a highlight of this track. A 5-6 hour round trip allows plenty of time to explore the river banks and enjoy the alpine scenery.
Looking for more of a challenge? Consider tackling one of Fiordland's famous multi-day hikes – the Milford Track, Routeburn, Greenstone and Caples Tracks or the Hollyford Track are all highly recommended.
Milford Sound's day walks and hikes perfectly complement the repertoire of exciting activities here – try a guided kayak tour or boat cruise and get out on the water for a different perspective.
For accommodation that's handy to the walks and activities Milford Sound has to offer, consider a stay at Milford Lodge. From award-winning chalets to powered campervan sites and dorms, the lodge is located in Milford Sound itself - one of New Zealand's most naturally beautiful places.

The occasion marks the 89th anniversary of the first surfing contest in Mission Beach.
It is the third of nine events planned in the months-long celebration of Mission Beach's centennial.
The centennial celebration kicked off in March with a plaque dedication and walk and will conclude on Saturday, Sept. 27 with a festival at Belmont Park.
The May 17 surf event will include open and classic divisions for men and women, as well as a special menehune division for ages 16 and under.
The advance entry fee of $25 or $35 on event day includes a contest T-shirt, custom trophies and prizes for winners. All proceeds go to support the San Diego Junior Lifeguard Foundation.
Check-in for contestants with beach marshals is at 7:30 a.m., with the event beginning an hour later.
The next event in the centennial celebration will be a centennial cruise to Belmont Park on Father's Day, June 15, to be followed by a dive-in at the Plunge pool in Belmont Park from 8 to 10 p.m. on Tuesday, July 15; an OMShoes horseshoes tournament Aug. 3; a sandcastle event on Sunday, Aug. 17 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.; and a volleyball beachfest on Saturday, Sept. 6.
The inspiration for the MB centennial celebration, co-chaired by Wendy Crain and Debbie Watkins, dates back to May 2013 and the influence of local historian Phil Prather, who co-wrote "Images of America: Mission Beach."
The history of Mission Beach goes back to June 14, 1914, when a syndicate headed by John D. Spreckles and managed by George S. Barney submitted a subdivision map surveyed by D.A. Loebenstein to the Common Council (now known as the City Council) of San Diego for approval.
On Dec. 14, 1914, the first official map of Mission Beach was signed and adopted.

IT Investment Planning: Reimagining the ProcessBy Katrina Pugh | Posted 08-25-2011
IT Investment Planning: Reimagining the Process
Organizations invest in new IT capabilities to improve a variety of business factors, including revenue, market share, cost-position, security, and reputation. Many go through planning cycles with anguish, re-estimating and realigning dozens of times, using a dizzying array of budgeting methods, such as top-down, bottom-up, MBO-centered, SMART, portfolio-based, and zero-based.
No matter what the approach, IT investment planning is fundamentally a knowledge process. Yes, ego and emotions play in, but in the final analysis, it all comes down to the ability of the CIO and other decision-makers to synthesize information about how each investment will help individuals improve performance.
IT executives ask: How can we go through the planning cycle, get the performance we need, and minimize surprises? After all, organizations spend hundreds of thousands of dollars and countless hours on figuring out which IT investments to make. Then they spend hundreds of thousands of dollars more - often just a few months later - on revising those plans. And this doesn't even take into account the negative impact of cost overruns or lost customer confidence.
Getting these dollars, and hours, under control requires reimagining your IT investment planning processes.
Investment Planning as Learning
Imagine approaching the IT investment planning cycle as a learning opportunity -- specifically, a transfer of the insights of one generation of projects, support initiatives, or installations (and their internal and external customers) to the next generation. With this approach, we could learn about:
Customer segment needs, vacillations, and adoption challenges;
The limitations of core application languages, architectures and hardware;
The impact of standards and regulations; and
Initiative overlaps that are only vaguely (or protectively) known.
Imagine informing IT investing with minimal searches and white papers, and just a handful of focused conversations. These conversations could be aimed at drawing specific and useful insights into each planning area.
Imagine that your project shifted scope mid-stream because of vendor upgrades or unanticipated accounting requirements. Let's say that in one of these conversations you tell me that those upgrades caused headaches because of the customization the company did, and we were blindsided by the disruption it caused. You also explain to me that the accounting change is part of a set of changes being dictated by a new regulatory environment. Now, I can consider whether those events could apply to my projects before I submit my budget.
It sounds simple enough, right? Yet, for many organizations, this level of knowledge-transfer is far from routine. At best, it happens in a crisis. Making this type of learning habitual is the purpose of the "Knowledge Jam." Knowledge Jam is a knowledge transfer method designed to ferret out insights by using facilitated conversation. Knowledge Jam entails putting together experts, such as planning or project veterans, with the people in various departments who are responsible for undertaking future investments.
Introducing the Knowledge Jam to Your IT Investment Process
The Knowledge Jam has been implemented at Intel, Fidelity, Hitachi Data Systems, the Institute for Healthcare Improvement and several other large and small organizations. Facilitators select subjects (such as investment sectors, customer segments, or application suites) with Knowledge Jam sponsors (such as budget managers). Next, facilitators draft an agenda that incorporates representatives from the veteran teams (known as "knowledge originators") and those responsible for undertaking future investments (known as "knowledge brokers").
Facilitators convene members of both groups in a 90-minute "Jam session." The facilitator sets the tone, draws out participants' comments and opinions, and captures and validates ideas in real-time, using projection tools like Webex, LiveMeeting or GotoMeeting. Knowledge brokers then step up and take the knowledge into their planning or practices, and continue to network with the originators.
A Knowledge Jam session falls somewhere between a brainstorm and a panel discussion. What's unique is that the conversation is directed toward a specific target application. Unlike typical knowledge-transfer methods, such as After Action Reviews and white papers, the Jam is not about capturing content for a repository, on the speculation that it could be relevant to some future unidentified user. Rather, the focus is on informing projects, processes, products, or organization structures while they are in flight or on the drawing board. It also differs from social forums, where ideas and threads are fleeting. In a Knowledge Jam, the hard-core application of the ideas is part of the process.
Knowledge Jam Disciplines
The three disciplines of the knowledge Jam are:
Facilitation. The facilitator helps select, plan, and coordinate the Knowledge Jam process, getting parties together, helping plan the agenda, providing quality control, and, most importantly, setting a tone of curiosity and respect for the conversation - a tone which invites greater flow of ideas and exploration of their applications. Facilitators model and reward respectful, open inquiry, and discourage defensive, criticizing or protective attitudes.
Conversation. A conversation between those who've run or implemented projects or programs (and even their customers) with those who are shaping, scoring and rationalizing future investments brings out nuance that would never have made it into traditional documentation. Conversation brings out context. That is, the connective material between the facts, hunches, decisions, rationales, or any of the messy stuff that makes up the art of working in IT.
Translation. Involvement by brokers throughout the Jam gives them a sense of ownership. They re-mix the ideas for their context (e.g., their division, country, project or application). Translation could result in a new project template, a design spec, critical budget line items, or even a marketing protocol. Brokers use change management strategies and collaboration or social media technology (e.g., community sites, Wikis and microblogs) to ensure that the resulting knowledge gets built out, used, and amplified, and that it doesn't stagnate in a repository.
These three disciplines work together to ensure the right content and people are involved, valuable insights rise to the surface, and knowledge gets put to work across cycles of IT investment planning. The facilitation, conversation, and translation disciplines on which Knowledge Jam is founded are valuable dimensions of any planning culture. Facilitation is about matchmaking or boundary-spanning, similar to the idea of "listening posts." Conversation is about being open to the possibility of serendipitous learning - the notion that one team's cost overruns could inform another team's positioning. Finally, translation is kind of stewardship. That is, having the perseverance and garnering the executive support to drive lessons learned into future projects.
Informing and Energizing Your Investment Process
Incorporating the Knowledge Jam into the investment planning process ensures organizations get an accurate understanding of capability gaps, risks, and even the readiness of to accept change.
CIOs who foster all three disciplines - facilitation, conversation, and translation - increase their chances of managing program interdependencies and risks more effectively, adapting their organization more practically, and persevering through obstacles more collaboratively. And, there's another bonus. The Jam process begins relationships between project veterans and would-be project participants. These relationships continue into the year and idea-sharing will continue.
Most of us are deep in the throes of our August budgeting process. But there's still enough time to scope some Jams, assign some facilitators, and crank up the Webex or GotoMeeting. When managers fund Knowledge Jams ahead of the investment planning process, decision-making doesn't just react to today's priorities. It's informed by decades of experience. Start today, and you'll create vast improvements in your investment processes for years to come.

If you didn't know that Oakland Athletics outfielder Josh Reddick is a wrestling fan, then you haven't been paying enough attention to him. Reddick, who in 2012 won a Gold Glove, earned some MVP votes, and has emerged as one of the faces of his club, comes to the plate to various wrestling theme music. He has been photographed for spring training with his replica WWE Championship belt slung over his shoulder, and if you follow him on Twitter, you'll even catch him interacting with the likes of WWE Hall of Famer Jim Ross on occasion. Reddick loves his wrestling, specifically WWE, and has for quite some time.
"Every little kid gets into it at some point," says Reddick, who admits he stopped following the sports entertainment giant at some point between his youth and becoming a professional baseball player. When he moved in with a high school buddy of his, though, Reddick once again became a fan. "He was into it, and he paid for the cable, so every Monday night, I'd sit down and start watching it and got back into it. So he gets the credit for getting me back into the whole thing. Being in baseball, I've got to meet all these different guys, but he's always the one person who takes me to all these events when I've been home."
Monday night is when WWE shows their flagship program, "RAW," live on the USA Network. The show is currently in its 21st season, and celebrated its 1,000th episode just last year, at the same time that it was pushed to a standard three-hour format. It's tough for a professional baseball player to consistently block away that much time for late-night television, but Reddick puts in the effort, even if he's not huge on everything the WWE is pushing in its stories right now -- such as the latest anti-establishment stable, The Shield.
The Shield debuted at the Survivor Series pay-per-view last August, interrupting the title match between Ryback and then-champion CM Punk by triple powerbombing the former through a table. "It would have been fine if they came up with some new ways to do it, but every week it was lights go out, here come the three guys, beat the crap out of each other, triple powerbomb. Next week, same thing," says Reddick. "At least if you're going to do that, switch it up and let them do some different things."
Reddick knows a thing or two about how a stable of heel characters should be run, as his favorite wrestler of all-time, Triple-H, was one of the founders of WWE's greatest group in that vein: Degeneration-X. While DX moved on from being just heels to fan favorites, part of that rise came from the promos, wrestling, and envelope-pushing of Triple-H and another Reddick favorite, Shawn Michaels. The Shield is a long way from that kind of recognition, as Reddick notes, and part of it is because they just haven't been allowed to grow and breathe much just yet.
Reddick, however, was thrilled when Triple-H returned to the ring at the start of the final RAW of February, for the first time since late-August of 2012. "I was going nuts in my apartment. It worked out great because you know, the time difference here, and I don't stay up past 11 since I've been in spring training, so for him to come out right at the beginning of the show was awesome for me." Triple-H's current story line is as the company's Chief Operating Officer, which in actuality isn't a stretch: in real life, he's the Executive Vice President, Talent, and is the likely heir to the WWE universe when Vince McMahon finally hangs it up, given his high-standing in the organization and his marriage -- both on- and off-screen -- to McMahon's daughter, Stephanie.
These front office responsibilities, which aren't entirely new for Triple-H, haven't kept him from befriending his long time fan, though they did slow down the process. "I actually met a camera guy from WWE and got to know the whole camera crew for about three years. I went to a number of shows, went backstage, met wrestlers, but just never crossed paths with Triple-H since he was always so busy. I've always used a wrestling walk-up song while hitting, and he just heard through the grapevine that I had used his, and that he was my favorite. One night in Boston, I got to meet him, and talked to him for about an hour backstage. He gave me his number, and we stayed in contact. Anytime they're around us, I give him a shout, and he leaves me ringside tickets." Reddick, whose voice tells you he's aware of how lucky that makes him, finishes with, "I'm grateful for that."
He can also thank Triple-H for the championship belt Reddick carries with him, as that was a gift to the outfielder from the WWE executive himself. "Triple-H actually sent that to me last spring training. I had a plastic replica belt that I had bought a few years ago, and took to photo day last year. I guess he found the pictures, and Triple-H has always been my favorite wrestler -- he's always been my favorite, ever since I started watching. He sent that two days later and said, 'If you're going to have a belt you might as well have the real thing'."
Of course, the real thing is always changing: the belt that Reddick possesses is no longer the official WWE Championship belt, as The Rock unveiled his custom iteration at just about the worst possible time for Reddick. "It's funny because the day before, I had the photo shot with the old belt. Then the next night, the new one comes out on RAW. I've actually looked into buying it, but it's $500, and I don't want to put some money into it like that." Not every fan of the WWE feels the same way, given that the item is back-ordered on the official shop through mid-March, but you can understand even a super fan on a baseball player's salary turning down the chance to spend almost $500 when you've already got a belt with a far cooler backstory.
Triple-H is far from the only wrestler Reddick has interacted with, and one such occurrence led to his favorite moment with WWE-inspired at-bat music. "My favorite time was probably with Ric Flair in 2011 when I was with Boston. Flair came around the clubhouse and me and [Dustin] Pedroia went nuts, Pedroia is a huge wrestling guy, as well. We took pictures with Ric, and I think Pedroia walked out to 'To be the man, you got to beat the man' and I walked out to the standard 'Woo' call. That was pretty cool they were able to do that for us, and it's one of my favorite moments."
What would top the at-bat music and the clubhouse meetings, though, would be a chance for Reddick to get into the ring himself: "I have yet to go on a show, so we need to get that pushed along to where I can get on a show, that'd be awesome. The more people know that, the better." For any of you bookers out there reading, know that Reddick has already devised a gimmick, as well as many of the other necessaries for building a WWE character. "I'd be the Red Rocket, I think it works out well since I throw guys out on the baseball field. I'm not a very big guy, so my finisher would have to be a submission so I can get a guy to tap out. Maybe I'd go to the Ric Flair Figure-Four Leg Lock." Reddick has a tag-team partner picked out, whether it be from the ranks of the WWE or a fellow MLB player. "Stone Cold Steve Austin fits my criteria for where I'm from, being from the south, and we got the redneck chugging beer thing, and it'd be cool just to get in the ring, have a match and chug beers with him. For a teammate, I'd need to go with someone who knows the moves, the only person I know who knows the moves is Pedroia, so I'd have to go with Pedroia."
The hypothetical charisma of a Reddick/Pedroia tag-team would certainly fit into the WWE universe, but they would still need a star to put them over and make them believable to fans. If given the choice, Reddick would pick current WWE champion Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson for this task. "Rock would be into it, the fans would be into it, and it'd be fun just to have that sort of thing happen to me with someone like him."
The fans might not need that kind of convincing to buy into Reddick, though. He's a superb defensive player thanks to his general athleticism, and one with an arm so good that he and teammates have built a hypothetical wrestling gimmick out of it. He pied Coco Crisp in the face following a walk-off win last August... while wearing a Spider-Man costume:
That Spider-Man meme itself came out of a ridiculous catch Reddick made that saw him climb and hang off of a wall while the ball came to him, like something Willie Mays Hayes would have done in the fictional Major League universe. Reddick doesn't need to play a character like Hayes, though, as he already is one. It's no wonder he appreciates the spectacle of the sports entertainment business that is professional wrestling, as he's done his best to bring that kind of enjoyment to baseball fans.

Research Studies for Seniors
At every stage of life, our physical, mental and emotional health needs are different. Certain diseases are more likely at certain times of life, medicines for a condition might need to be adjusted and we might need ways to stay healthy. There are many medical studies focused specifically on seniors to learn the best ways to prevent and treat disease and how we can age successfully throughout our lives. This area of research is particularly important as scientific progress has led to longer, more productive and more active lives for many people. As a result there are a lot of new things we need to learn through research. Because people are living longer, for example, more people have long-term, or chronic, diseases. Doctors need better ways to understand and care for these conditions. We need to increase our knowledge of prevention too, and how to best support mental and emotional health as we continue to grow throughout our lives.
You can take part in research studies that matter most to you and your loved ones. To find a research study that is a good fit for you, see the information below.
Finding a Study
Whether you're looking for studies on ClinicalTrials.gov or helping researcher find you on ResearchMatch, always keep the following in mind:
1. Your health status – both healthy volunteers and those with medical conditions are needed in the research effort.
2. Your location – finding studies close to home is often a requirement to be able to take part.
3. More information about you – studies are done using groups based on their gender, ethnic group, and age, among other things. What makes you unique is what's needed the most.
Helping Researchers Find you on ResearchMatch
Why ResearchMatch? Fact: Recent surveys show that few Americans (less than 5%) know where to find out about research studies that are a good fit for them. Fact: Research volunteers are medical heroes. Why? Because behind every medical breakthrough and new treatment are thousands of people who take part in research studies.
ResearchMatch is one way to help match medical heroes with research studies. How? Think of posting your resume on line. Like a resume helps employers look for people to fill a role in their company; ResearchMatch is your research resume with details about you. This allows researchers to look for volunteers who may be good fit for their study.
The NetWellness feature ResearchMatch and You – Making a Difference One Discovery at a Time gives a step by step guide about how ResearchMatch works and what you can do to take part in research. Once you put the details of your profile in ResearchMatch, it is kept secure. These details will only be shared when you agree to take part in a study.
Finding Studies on ClinicalTrials.gov
Many people want to take part in research studies. Finding a study that is (a good) (the right) fit for you or your loved one can be a challenge/hard. ClinicalTrials.gov exists helps speed up the search by having a list of studies offered/listed in the United States.
The search tool on ClinicalTrials.gov allows you to look for research studies that are as unique as you. This allows you to search by your gender, race, ethnicity, age, and condition. In any search that you do on ClinicalTrials.gov, it's important that you include your city and state in your search so that you can find trials that are happening close to home. The NetWellness feature How to Find a Clinical Research Study/Clinical Trial helps guide you to get the best results for your search.

For fans of piano contests, one of the South Bay's most prestigious such events is about to get under way. The annual San Jose International Piano Competition will take place June 6-15 at Le Petit Trianon Theatre, a venue with not only a Steinway D concert grand piano, but one that provides an intimate, acoustically perfect setting for the young musicians who come from near and far.
The contest made its debut in 2000, the creation of Dr. Irina Prilipko-Morgan and her husband, Dan. It was also initially known as the Russian Music Competition. Even now, the emphasis remains on the Russian repertoire.
In that inaugural year, 35 musicians played for prize money totaling all of $500.
For 2014, nearly 100 artists are entered in four categories, all vying for more than $12,000. The lineup truly reflects the global scale of the endeavor, with pianists hailing from Russia, France, Korea, Italy, Mongolia, Canada and more.
In addition to meeting and listening to fellow artists, contestants will be able to attend master classes and lectures offered by the internationally renowned professors and pianists who make up the jury.
All that is prelude to the fact that this may be one of the area's best-kept secrets for entertainment value. Most of the competition rounds are free and open to the public. Paid admission is required only for the opening gala concert on June 6; the final round of the advanced category on June 14; and the winners concert, awards ceremony and reception June 15.
The competitive action begins at 10 a.m. June 7 in the young musicans category, followed by the 3 p.m. junior category.
At 5 p.m. June 8 there is a free talk by Antonio Pompa-Baldi, silver medal at the 2001 Van Cliburn International Piano Competition.

Apparently scientists in Montréal no longer need to put rats in a maze to conduct experiments, because they have shopping malls. Bonnie Swaine and Eva Kehayia, researchers at the Centre de recherche interdisciplinaire en réadaptation du Montréal (CRIR), turned the Alexis Nihon Plaza shopping center into a "living laboratory." According to the Montreal Gazette, "Kehayia and Swaine note that 17 per cent of Quebecers deal with some kind of physical handicap (48 per cent of those over age 65), so public spaces need to be better designed to accommodate them." What do these accommodations entail? Well, the researchers will be testing:
Smart wheelchairs that can be programmed to take a person from one specific shop to another while avoiding obstacles.
Thermal cameras that can detect human traffic patterns so researchers can pinpoint problem areas.
The efficacy of software designed to help the cognitively-impaired navigate a virtual grocery store.
Transmitters and receptors that tell visually impaired people what stores and services are nearby and how to get to them.
It's true that malls can be confusing for anyone, and it's a good idea to improve conditions for visually impaired people or those with limited mobility. But how long until lazy people start taking over those smart wheelchairs? We're all going to end up with atrophied limbs, like the folks inWall-E, I just know it.

The Band Perry Release Rustic 'Better Dig Two' Lyric Video
If you've been wanting to memorize the words to the Band Perry's latest hit song, 'Better Dig Two,' all you need to do is watch their new lyric video. With a new twist on the old video template, the clip shows every word of the song, and it contains some gorgeous background shots to boot.
Country music lovers first heard 'Better Dig Two' when the sibling trio debuted the song on the CMA Awards a few weeks ago. According to GACTV, immediately after the CMAs, the Band Perry took off to film the actual music video for the new single. But in order to tide fans over until it's ready, this lyric clip is a perfect fill-in.
It appears that the entire clip was shot out in the country. Rustic images of beat-up fences, crumbling stones, fraying ropes and dirty mason jars fill up the video's split screen, while handwritten lyrics scroll through in interesting patterns.
The background shots make the video come to life. While the song title sounds slightly romantic, and as if Kimberly Perry wants to be with her husband forever, the lyric video shows a different side to the song. What she's really singing about is taking her own life if he dies first. If he goes before her, she'll tell the gravedigger to dig two graves, and the coroner will chalk her death up to a broken heart.
If this lyric clip is a sneak peak at what's to come for the official music video, then we're in for a treat!

Field covered, yes, but also bitterly cold. Saturday's forecasted high in the Twin Cities is zero degrees.
@bethelroyals Instagram photo
Because we're down to just four games, Pat, Keith and Ryan are doing more than just predicting the winners and the scores – they're also offering a deeper look at their thought processes and why they're making the picks they're making.
Take a peek at the picks and the write-ups below, and then please take a moment and leave your own score predictions in the comments below. Or you can reach out to us on Twitter at @d3football.com, @D3Keith or @NewsTipps.
For more info on the 32-team race to Salem, including the brackets, info on each team and feature stories, check our playoffs home page.
Ryan's take: Mount Union 33, Wesley 20. Even in Wesley's strongest years, Mount has bested the Wolverines on the football field. I was, admittedly, shaky on the caliber of this Wesley team going into the postseason, and while I've also had some questions about the Purple Raiders, they haven't been as significant as those about Wesley. To keep it close, the Wolverines are going to have to do something they haven't really done yet in the playoffs: find success with BOTH the run game and the passing game. A team can't be one-dimensional taking the field against the Purple Raiders, which ratchets up the pressure on quarterback Joe Callahan and the running backs. They'll be facing Mount Union's defense, which is younger than normal but clearly potent and eager to replicate past success.
Keith's take: Mount Union 35, Wesley 21. In a departure from the regular season, I'll be the concise one. Neither of these teams would beat the great Purple Raider or Wolverine teams that clashed previously, but that's irrelevant on Saturday. Wesley's got the intangibles and should be able to play loose, but QB Kevin Burke has a O-line that should keep him mostly clean against the Wolverines relentless rush. Meantime, DL Tom Lally was a problem for Wittenberg and could be for Wesley as well.
Pat's take: Mount Union 45, Wesley 21. Just last week, it seems, Mount Union is beginning to come into its own. Wesley has been up and down … or perhaps really far up and just plain up, this year, but I don't get the impression they are peaking at the right time, while Mount Union is. Jamar Baynard won't have nearly the amount of room to run this week as he did against Ithaca and the young Wesley offensive line will struggle. The way Wesley has used Jeremiah Howe the past couple of weeks gives some reason for optimism that Wesley could put a few points on the board, at least early, but Mount Union is too versatile on offense now to be slowed.
Ryan's take: North Central 45, Bethel 14. These two teams have combined for 219 points in the first two rounds, meaning they have averaged nearly 55 points a game. They have been scoring machines, and they were able to put up the numbers against some good competition. This should be the year that the Cardinals break into the national semifinals, something they've been predicted to do in recent years before falling just short. And I would have made that pick no matter the status of Bethel's quarterback (though my score prediction would have changed).
Keith's take: North Central 34, Bethel 28. For me, this is a departure from the final ballot I cast for the top 25 and the Surprises and Disappointments column. The quarterback issue for Bethel is one thing, but I also think NCC's offensive run-pass balance and tempo will make it tough to keep off the scoreboard. I've fallen into the Cardinals-are-going-to-the-semifinals trap before, but this time they seem plenty tested along the way. I expect this to rival Linfield-UWW as the game of the day.
Pat's take: North Central 27, Bethel 20. North Central is going to push the tempo on Bethel. I expect Bethel will be able to handle it well enough, however, and I expected the conditions to slow things down, especially the run game. That won't keep North Central off the board, though. Now, on the opposite side, I have some confidence in Tom Keefe running the offense if Erik Peterson can't go. I don't know that that will be enough to get the job done, and if everyone can run their routes and catch passes in the zero-degree temperatures expected Saturday in the Twin Cities. Both teams are going to leave some point on the field (including a PAT in my score projection). I did not project any runbacks of blocked PATs, however, regardless of how many points they count for this week.
Ryan's take: Linfield 21, UW-Whitewater 13. I imagine that some people's confidence in Linfield was shaken after trailing as much as 21-3 in the second quarter against Hampden-Sydney last week. But a strange thing came over me. As close as I had been over the years to the H-SC program and as happy as I am to see the Tigers having postseason success, the first thought that came over me was: "That lead isn't big enough to protect." We've seen this year how Linfield can pour it on after the break -– like against Pacific or Pacific Lutheran in the regular season. When it's needed, it happens. And that's my takeaway from Linfield, a team that finds a way to make its own success. Their opponent, UW-Whitewater, is a team that has impressed me –- and won me over in many ways. I think this will be a game dominated by defenses (Linfield had six defenders that were first-team All-NWC and 11 total on the All-Conference team; Whitewater had five first-teamers and 10 total). The team that is able to find some offense or have a breakout play or two will win this matchup.
Keith's take: Linfield 17, UW-Whitewater 14. I struggled with this one. Linfield was loaded to start the year, but at some point injuries might catch up with them. Both teams have had half-game lapses in the playoffs but have been otherwise outstanding. It's expected to be between 12 and 18 degrees in Whitewater on Saturday, and The Perk is one of the true home-field advantages in D-III. Still, I think Linfield is due to catch a break in a huge game. QB Matt Behrendt has a 32-to-1 TD-to-INT ratio, and the Warhawks have only six lost fumbles all year, but Linfield has 20 interceptions and 32 takeaways in 11 games. If they stay on average, three turnovers a game, they can squeak out a road win in the best game of the playoffs.
Pat's take: Linfield 17, UW-Whitewater 15. I have some concerns about UW-Whitewater putting enough points on the board. Heck, I have some concerns about Linfield doing so. I'm torn between wondering if the Whitewater defense can hold Linfield to fewer points than Hampden-Sydney did and wondering if Josh Yoder got the interceptions out of his system. This is the big toss-up of the field, and I'm sticking with the pick I made at the beginning of the playoffs.
Ryan's take: Mary Hardin-Baylor 31, St. John Fisher 13. All season, Fisher has been able to beat good and great teams that it's encountered. But UMHB is different; it's elite. Defensively intimidating; offensively unslowable. The Louisiana College game aside, the Crusaders have destroyed their opposition this fall. And they've held both playoff opponents to single digits on the scoreboard. Fisher has had a great run, beating a Top 10 team and surprising me and countless others with that performance. The team is a testament to the value of bringing two-loss teams into the Pool C fold, and that commands respect. But this will be Mary Hardin-Baylor's game.
Keith's take: Mary Hardin-Baylor 40, St. John Fisher 10. There comes a point in every great D-III season where grit will only get you so far. The Cardinals have reached that point, and their opponent is one regarded by some as the best team in the tournament. Wind and freezing rain is expected in Belton, but instead of favoring the team from upstate New York, it helps UMHB. Behind QB Tyler Fenti, SJFC has thrown the ball well. That might be their best option, even in bad weather, as the Cru (63 y/g, four rush TDs allowed all season) is built to stop the run. Six defenders have double-digit tackles for losses, and and Fisher only averages 3.6 yards per carry this season — 4.4 by top back Cody Miller — anyway. Meantime, Cru RB Elijah Hudson, who has missed three games this season, appeared at full strength last week, with 23 carries for 136 yards against Rowan.
Pat's take: Mary Hardin-Baylor 38, St. John Fisher 14. This is where the road ends. Again, it's been a good run for St. John Fisher, but this is likely the end of the line. One thing that I worry about for UMHB, though, is that I feel like a good part of the Cru's home success this year has been part of the momentum from the home crowd, and 2,500 fans are not as big a boost as, say, 9,300 or even 5,000. Playoff crowds are just smaller — they always are. But that's not going to have an impact this week, and I don't think UMHB will have to leave the Cruthedral until the Stagg Bowl, should they advance that far.

Saturn's 'ring rain' is a surprising cocktail of chemicals
A new analysis of Cassini data could shed light on the origins of the massive belts
NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory
The "ring rain" of material falling from Saturn's rings into the planet's atmosphere is a much more intense, contaminated downpour than scientists thought.
For decades, astronomers have suspected that Saturn's rings pelt the planet with grains of water ice, but some of the final observations from NASA's Cassini spacecraft provide the first detailed views of these celestial showers (SN: 4/14/18, p. 6). Ring rain is highly contaminated with organic matter and other molecules, and hammers Saturn at thousands of kilograms per second, researchers report in the Oct. 5 Science. Understanding the rain's surprising quantity and quality could help clarify the origins and evolution of Saturn's rings.
Researchers analyzed data collected by Cassini's Ion Neutral Mass Spectrometer during the spacecraft's final few orbits in 2017, as it sailed through the gap between Saturn and its innermost ring, known as the D ring (SN Online: 9/15/17). Water constituted only about 24 percent of the material tumbling from Saturn's ring system into its atmosphere; the rest was methane, carbon monoxide, dinitrogen, ammonia, carbon dioxide and fragments of organic nanoparticles.
The ring rain's diverse chemical composition "was a big surprise," because remote observations show that Saturn's ring system, on the whole, is almost entirely water ice, says Cassini project scientist Linda Spilker of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., who wasn't involved in the study. Researchers aren't sure why ring rain is so deprived of water.
Cocktail conundrum
The ring rain that Cassini's Ion Neutral Mass Spectrometer caught falling from Saturn's rings into its atmosphere is only about 24 percent water — a major surprise, given that Saturn's ring system is almost entirely water ice. The rest of the ring rain is composed of organic material and other molecules.
The chemical breakdown of Saturn's ring rain
A belt of radiation tucked inside Saturn's rings could be responsible, says study coauthor Jeff Cuzzi, a planetary scientist at NASA's Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, Calif. Cassini's end-of-life observations also provided the first closeup views of this band of energetic protons, described in another study in the Oct. 5 Science. The belt's high-energy radiation may have blasted away much of the water in the D ring very close to Saturn, leaving behind heavier materials like organic compounds, Cuzzi speculates.
Whatever its cause, the ring rain's peculiar composition may reshape our understanding of the carbon and nitrogen content of Saturn's atmosphere, says Hunter Waite, a planetary scientist at the Southwest Research Institute in San Antonio and a coauthor of the ring rain study. Saturn's presumed chemical makeup may be "just a veneer" created by falling material masking the gas giant's true composition, he says.
In addition to the ring rain's chemistry, the Cassini observations also revealed how quickly this material is falling into Saturn's atmosphere: between 4,800 and 45,000 kilograms per second.
I spy
Observations from Cassini's final few months revealed a radiation belt composed of high-energy protons tucked inside the gas giant's ring system. This belt (bright colors below) passes through Saturn's thin, innermost D ring, and might be stripping water out of the ring material closest to Saturn.
"It's just an enormous amount of mass flowing into the planet," Cuzzi says.
Saturn's rings probably haven't sustained this rate of rainfall over the course of the planet's history, he says. If that were the case, the spindly little D ring would have long since eroded away. But a comet or other rogue object may have hit Saturn's ring system recently, jostling grains out of their usual orbit and making them more vulnerable to Saturn's gravitational pull.
But if the current deluge is, in fact, Saturn's normal rate of ring rain, then perhaps the D ring continually siphons material from Saturn's outer rings, says Kelly Miller, a cosmochemist at the Southwest Research Institute and a coauthor on the ring rain study.
The exact nature of Saturn's relationship to its rings "is still a puzzle," Spilker says. But devising more detailed theoretical simulations of what's going on between the planet's atmosphere and rings, and testing these theories against the trove of data collected by Cassini could help fill in the picture.
Such work may help scientists better understand not only Saturn, but also any ring-bearing planets that might circle other stars in the universe, she says.

By Margaret Krueger
Patricia Davidson, OHIO's assistant director of summer sessions, works with diverse students in the University's eLearning program. A nontraditional student herself, Davidson graduated from the Honors Tutorial College (HTC) with a communications studies degree in 1987. To support high-achieving students from varied backgrounds, she donates regularly to the HTC Community Enhancement Fund.
"I came into the University as an adult student at the age of 30 and began from scratch," said Davidson. "It was terrifying."
She describes being a restless after her son started elementary school. For a year, she considered the idea of going to college at the suggestion of her husband. But as a first-generation student and an adult, the prospect of earning a bachelor's degree was daunting. It was also a prospect Davidson believes she could have not completed without HTC.
"[HTC] helped me feel like I was more in control of my studies," Davidson said, noting her opportunity to dig deeper into areas that were of personal interest. "I might not have had the persistence or the patience to complete a bachelor's degree if it had not been for HTC."
As an alumna, Davidson has stayed connected to the college. In addition to her financial support, she served on the HTC Board of Visitors in the early '90s. Davidson said she gives back because she wants to make the opportunities she had available to many kinds of students, as HTC has more to offer than just a rigorous education.
"[HTC] is also very valuable for the students' ability to get to know themselves and have confidence to follow their own interests and ideas," Davidson said.
Davidson reflects that her tutorials challenged her to pursue research that was initially intimidating, including interviews with upper-level administrators for the purpose of studying organizational communication. However, her HTC senior thesis and master's degree in college student personnel allowed her the opportunity to study an individual passion: the experiences of adult students attending traditional campuses such as Ohio University.
She fulfills two primary roles in her position with eLearning Ohio. She helps with recruitment programs for high school students as well as with domestic travel programs such as class trips or workshops. She attributes some of her success in this nontraditional niche to her time in college.
"My own experience was sort of atypical," Davidson said, "so my idea of what a college education is is probably a bit more flexible than someone who comes to college at the age of 18 or 19 and goes straight through."
Ohio University's current capital campaign, The Promise Lives Campaign, has raised more than $413 million toward its goal of $450 million by June, 2015 in support of students, faculty, programs, facilities and community partnerships.

While installing Subversion on AIX (version 7.1) from the official site, there are dependencies I need to resolve first before I can proceed to install the subversion package. While installing the dependencies package, there are a bunch of other dependencies package are needed to be download and install as well.
Is there a program for AIX that could automate the installation process? Something like

Here's a brief list that approximates my process.
1. Re-scoop from my community. I trust the folks I follow and often find a few on topic articles in the scoops of others. Scoop.it encourages you to follow the work of other curators. It's easy to 're-scoop' articles selected by people you trust. This is one way that Scoop.it becomes a community of experts helping each other discover ideas and resources.
2. Prismatic: http://getprismatic.com/ This search aggregator is my 'go to' filter for new stories on all the topics I curate. Once you set up your areas of interest, Prismatic presents you with a long scrolling page of articles. I open them up, scan or read deeply then make the Scoop or No-Scoop decision.
3. Dig deeper into credible sites. There are many websites out there rich in content, These sites have archives of articles and many resources that are not readily apparent. I go below the surface and find valuable resources to post. One of the sites I use, is my own website the 21st Century Information Fluency Project http://21cif.com . It has been built up over 10 years with scads of material about information fluency: Other deep websites with solid content:
- The International Association for K-12 Online Learning http://www.inacol.org/
- NMC Horizon Project http://www.nmc.org/horizon-project
- The International Society for Technology in Education https://www.iste.org/
5. My own writing; I blog on on several sites: The Keyword Blog, The E-Learning Graduate Certificate Blog, E-Learning and Online Teaching Jobs blog. I always curate new materials and often 're-run' key articles I want in my networks.
Questions for all: Where do you find your articles?

Our weekly "Chips Report" always includes two blue chippers (outstanding, exceptional play), two red chippers (good, though maybe not great) and two cow chips (dud performances). From the Week 13 40-1o loss at the Detroit Lions ...
Blue Chips
- Linebacker Clay Matthews––Matthews' signature moment came on the Lions' first possession of the game. After a long Detroit drive into the red zone, Matthews was able to help the Packers defense get a red zone stop, forcing a fumble of running back Reggie Bush, which was recovered by safety Morgan Burnett. There wasn't much success on the defensive side of the football otherwise, but Matthews deserves credit for playing with tenacity from start to finish, racking up four tackles in the process.
- Kicker Mason Crosby––The highlight of Crosby's day was his long distance bomb from 54 yards that tied the game at 3-3 in the first quarter, but his performance looked even better in comparison to Lions kickoff specialist Sam Martin, who was twice flagged for kicking the football out of bounds. Add in his extra point, that that was about as good a performance as the Packers had on an otherwise forgettable day.
Red Chips
- Cornerback Sam Shields––Shields was hopeless against the slants to Calvin Johnson, but he sure did a good job against the deep routes. On two separate occasions, Shields was in position to prevent Johnson from coming down with the football in the end zone. He broke up the pass on one route and came up with an interception on the other, one of four turnovers forced by the Packers defense on the afternoon.
- Wide receiver James Jones––Jones came down with an impressive reception early in the game over the middle with a defender getting his arm between the football and Jones' chest. And even though the game was out of reach, he also had a nice haul on a 56-yard reception in the fourth quarter down the right sideline. On the day, Jones finished with three catches for 76 yards.
Cow Chips
- Cornerback Davon House––House was the victim in coverage on two touchdown passes, one against former Packers Jeremy Ross in the second quarter and another in the fourth quarterback lining up across from Kevin Ogletree. But House's struggles didn't stop on defense. He was also at fault for a missed tackle on a punt return by Ross that led to Detroit starting a drive deep in Packers territory.
- Linebacker A.J. Hawk––Not that there weren't plenty of other candidates for cow chips on Thursday, but Hawk was a big reason the Lions were able to rack up 561 yards of total offense. There were several missed tackles that led to Reggie Bush and Joique Bell each having big days on the ground. And then the Lions took advantage of Hawk lining up across from Bush on the perimeter of the field, connecting on a 32-yard reception.

A request to lift a probationary term of former West Brunswick High School teacher David Arrowood has been denied.
Arrowood was charged with five felony Class G offenses and sentenced to 90 days in jail with five years probation after having a sexual relationship then 17-year-old Kylee Frye that took place between 2005 and 2006.
As terms of his probation, Arrowood was not to have any direct or indirect contact with the girl.
Her parents, Robert and Kathy Frye, filed a lawsuit against Arrowood and the Brunswick County Board of Education last September.

Java Web Start allows your application client to be easily launched and automatically downloaded and updated. General information about Java Web Start is available at http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/javawebstart/index.jsp.
Java Web Start is discussed in the following topics:
Java Web Start is enabled for all application clients by default.
The application developer or deployer can specify that Java Web Start is always disabled for an application client by setting the value of the eligible element to false in the sun-application-client.xml file. See the Oracle GlassFish Server 3.0.1 Application Deployment Guide.
The GlassFish Server administrator can disable Java Web Start for a previously deployed eligible application client using the asadmin set command.
To disable Java Web Start for all eligible application clients in an application, use the following command:
asadmin set domain1.applications.j2ee-application.app-name.java-web-start-enabled="false"
To disable Java Web Start for a stand-alone eligible application client, use the following command:
asadmin set domain1.applications.appclient-module.module-name.java-web-start-enabled="false"
Setting java-web-start-enabled="true" re-enables Java Web Start for an eligible application client. For more information about the asadmin set command, see the Oracle GlassFish Server 3.0.1 Reference Manual.
If Java Web Start is enabled for your deployed application client, you can launch it for testing. Simply click on the Launch button next to the application client or application's listing on the App Client Modules page in the Administration Console.
On other machines, you can download and launch the application client using Java Web Start in the following ways:
Using a web browser, directly enter the URL for the application client. See The Application Client URL.
Click on a link to the application client from a web page.
Use the Java Web Start command javaws, specifying the URL of the application client as a command line argument.
If the application has previously been downloaded using Java Web Start, you have additional alternatives.
Use the desktop icon that Java Web Start created for the application client. When Java Web Start downloads an application client for the first time it asks you if such an icon should be created.
Use the Java Web Start control panel to launch the application client.
When you launch an application client, Java Web Start contacts the server to see if a newer client version is available. This means you can redeploy an application client without having to worry about whether client machines have the latest version.
The default URL for an application or module generally is as follows:
The default URL for a stand-alone application client module is as follows:
The default URL for an application client module embedded within an application is as follows. Note that the relative path to the application client JAR file is included.
If the context-root, appclient-module-id, or application-id is not specified during deployment, the name of the JAR or EAR file without the extension is used. If the application client module or application is not in JAR or EAR file format, an appclient-module-id or application-id is generated.
Regardless of how the context-root or id is determined, it is written to the server log. For details about naming, see Naming Standards in Oracle GlassFish Server 3.0.1 Application Deployment Guide.
To set a different URL for an application client, use the context-root subelement of the java-web-start-access element in the sun-application-client.xml file. This overrides the appclient-module-id or application-id. See Oracle GlassFish Server 3.0.1 Application Deployment Guide.
You can also pass arguments to the ACC or to the application client's main method as query parameters in the URL. If multiple application client arguments are specified, they are passed in the order specified.
A question mark separates the context root from the arguments. Ampersands (&) separate the arguments and their values. Each argument and each value must begin with arg=. Here is an example URL with a -color argument for a stand-alone application client. The -color argument is passed to the application client's main method.
If you are using the javaws URL command to launch Java Web Start with a URL that contains arguments, enclose the URL in double quotes (") to avoid breaking the URL at the ampersand (&) symbol.
Ideally, you should build your production application clients with user-friendly interfaces that collect information which might otherwise be gathered as command-line arguments. This minimizes the degree to which users must customize the URLs that launch application clients using Java Web Start. Command-line argument support is useful in a development environment and for existing application clients that depend on it.
Java Web Start enforces a security sandbox. By default it grants any application, including application clients, only minimal privileges. Because Java Web Start applications can be so easily downloaded, Java Web Start provides protection from potentially harmful programs that might be accessible over the network. If an application requires a higher privilege level than the sandbox permits, the code that needs privileges must be in a JAR file that was signed. When Java Web Start downloads such a signed JAR file, it displays information about the certificate that was used to sign the JAR, and it asks you whether you want to trust that signed code. If you agree, the code receives elevated permissions and runs. If you reject the signed code, Java Web Start does not start the downloaded application.
The GlassFish Server serves two types of signed JAR files in response to Java Web Start requests. One type is a JAR file installed as part of the GlassFish Server, which starts an application client during a Java Web Start launch: as-install/modules/gf-client.jar.
The other type is a generated application client JAR file. As part of deployment, the GlassFish Server generates a new application client JAR file that contains classes, resources, and descriptors needed to run the application client on end-user systems. When you deploy an application with the asadmin deploy command's ----retrieve option, use the asadmin get-client-stubs command, or select the Generate RMIStubs option from the EJB Modules deployment page in the Administration Console, this is the JAR file retrieved to your system. Because application clients need access beyond the minimal sandbox permissions to work in the Java Web Start environment, the generated application client JAR file must be signed before it can be downloaded to and executed on an end-user system.
A JAR file can be signed automatically or manually. The following sections describe the ways of signing JAR files.
The GlassFish Server automatically creates a signed version of the required JAR file if none exists. When a Java Web Start request for the gf-client.jar file arrives, the GlassFish Server looks for domain-dir/java-web-start/gf-client.jar. When a request for an application's generated application client JAR file arrives, the GlassFish Server looks in the directory domain-dir/java-web-start/app-name for a file with the same name as the generated JAR file created during deployment.
In either case, if the requested signed JAR file is absent or older than its unsigned counterpart, the GlassFish Server creates a signed version of the JAR file automatically and deposits it in the relevant directory. Whether the GlassFish Server just signed the JAR file or not, it serves the file from the domain-dir/java-web-start directory tree in response to the Java Web Start request.
To sign these JAR files, the GlassFish Server uses its self-signed certificate. When you create a new domain, either by installing the GlassFish Server or by using the asadmin create-domain command, the GlassFish Server creates a self-signed certificate and adds it to the domain's key store.
A self-signed certificate is generally untrustworthy because no certification authority vouches for its authenticity. The automatic signing feature uses the same certificate to create all required signed JAR files. To sign different JAR files with different certificates, do the signing manually.
The asadmin deploy command property jar-signing-alias specifies the alias for the security certificate with which the application client container JAR file is signed.
Java Web Start won't execute code requiring elevated permissions unless it resides in a JAR file signed with a certificate that the user's system trusts. For your convenience, GlassFish Server signs the JAR file automatically using the self-signed certificate from the domain, s1as. Java Web Start then asks the user whether to trust the code and displays the GlassFish Server certificate information.
To sign this JAR file with a different certificate, first add the certificate to the domain keystore. You can use a certificate from a trusted authority, which avoids the Java Web Start prompt, or from your own company, which users know they can trust. To add a certificate to the domain keystore, see Administering JSSE Certificates in Oracle GlassFish Server 3.0.1 Administration Guide.
Next, deploy your application using the jar-signing-alias property. For example:
asadmin deploy --property jar-signing-alias=MyAlias MyApp.ear
For more information about the asadmin deploy command, see the Oracle GlassFish Server 3.0.1 Reference Manual.
You can sign the generated application client JAR file for an application any time after you have deployed the application. As you deploy the application, you can specify the asadmin deploy command's ----retrieve option or select the Generate RMIStubs option on the EJB Modules deployment page in the Administration Console. Doing either of these tasks returns a copy of the generated application client JAR file to a directory you specify. Or, after you have deployed an application, you can download the generated application client JAR file using the asadmin get-client-stubs command.
Once you have a copy of the generated application client JAR file, you can sign it using the jarsigner tool and your certificate. Then place the signed JAR file in the domain-dir/java-web-start/app-name directory. You do not need to restart the server to start using the new signed JAR file.
When an application client is launched using Java Web Start, any error that the application client logic does not catch and handle is written to System.err and displayed in a dialog box. This display appears if an error occurs even before the application client logic receives control. It also appears if the application client code does not catch and handle errors itself.
To specify a vendor-specific icon, splash screen, text string, or a combination of these for Java Web Start download and launch screens, use the vendor element in the sun-application-client.xml file. The complete format of this element's data is as follows:
The following example vendor element contains an icon, a splash screen, and a text string:
<vendor>images/icon.jpg::otherDir/splash.jpg::MyCorp, Inc.</vendor>
The following example vendor element contains an icon and a text string:
<vendor>images/icon.jpg::MyCorp, Inc.</vendor>
The following example vendor element contains a splash screen and a text string; note the initial double colon:
<vendor>::otherDir/splash.jpg::MyCorp, Inc.</vendor>
The following example vendor element contains only a text string:
<vendor>MyCorp, Inc.</vendor>
The default value is the text string Application Client.
For more information about the sun-application-client.xml file, see the Oracle GlassFish Server 3.0.1 Application Deployment Guide.
