About Jimmy Webb
Jimmy Webb is that rarity in rock music, a professional songwriter who achieved stardom in that capacity. Rock music has its share of great songwriters, but most of them -- Bob Dylan, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Gene Clark, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Pete Townshend -- became best known for their own recordings of their best work. Webb has also performed live, and recorded fairly extensively, but his performing career never approached his success as a composer. His songwriting was sufficiently distinctive to make him one of the few stars of that profession outside of the Broadway stage during the '60s. Between 1966 and 1969 alone, he was responsible for writing such platinum-selling classics as "By the Time I Get to Phoenix," "Wichita Lineman," "Up, Up and Away," "MacArthur Park," and "Didn't We," producing and arranging the hit versions of several of those songs. Webb, in fact, may well have kept the craft of the songwriter in popular music alive and kicking in a new generation of popular music, saving the songwriting profession from being ghettoized on the Broadway stage and the world of the commercial jingle.
Along with his personal idol Burt Bacharach, Webb is one of the few non-performing artists of the '60s to achieve public stardom as well as professional acclaim, which has endured across decades and dozens of stylistic trends in popular music. With his success -- marked by gold and platinum records -- as a composer, arranger, and producer, and his periodic recordings of his own, Webb is possibly the closest figure that the post-pop music generation has produced to approximate Hoagy Carmichael.
Jimmy Webb was born the son of a Baptist minister in Elk City, Oklahoma, on August 15, 1946. An avid music enthusiast as a boy, he made his first public appearance as a performer playing the organ at his father's church, and even then, he improvised, rearranged, and re-harmonized the hymns. In his teens, he began his composing career with religious songs, and later led his own rock & roll band. His interest in music intersected with his love of literature and writing, and even in his teens, Webb was able to dissect the popular songs around him, and began turning his attention to writing informal "follow-up" efforts. He quickly realized that his songs were sometimes superior to the originals, and set his sights on a career as a songwriter.
Webb soon took off for Los Angeles, where his first job in music was transcribing other people's songs. During this period, as he made the rounds of publishing houses, he wrote a bittersweet romantic ballad entitled "By the Time I Get to Phoenix," which languished for two years. Finally, in 1966, Johnny Rivers recorded the song, which became a modest hit; Glen Campbell later cut it as well, and scored a gold record. Meanwhile, Webb was put in charge of the songs for the first album of a fledgling pop group called the Fifth Dimension; the result was a chart-topping, million-selling single, "Up, Up and Away." Between them, "By the Time I Get to Phoenix" and "Up, Up and Away" won eight Grammy Awards the following year, and turned Jimmy Webb into the most prominent songwriter of his generation.
Like many of his peers, Webb had begun thinking of longer compositions and more coherent bodies of songs, and soon wrote "MacArthur Park," which fit into the new spirit of the era. The lyrics, although not truly psychedelic, were as rich and ornate as anything the Beatles or the Beach Boys were experimenting with; Webb saw the arrangement of the song as a vast sonic canvas, filled with the combined sounds of a rock combo -- comprised of such top L.A. sessionmen as Larry Knechtel, Joe Osborn, and Hal Blaine, among others -- and a full orchestra and choir. He originally offered the song to the Association, who rejected it. Undaunted, Webb decided to record the piece on his own, and persuaded his friend, the actor Richard Harris, to sing "MacArthur Park"; after Webb recorded the orchestral part in Los Angeles, Harris' voice was added on at a studio in Dublin.
Webb tried selling "MacArthur Park" to several major labels, including Columbia Records, and was rejected; nobody felt that a seven-plus-minute single by an actor scarcely known as a singer had any chance of being played, much less becoming a hit. Luckily, Lou Adler's Dunhill Records, a Los Angeles-based independent outfit associated with ABC Records, felt differently, and bought the single and the accompanying album, A Tramp Shining. "MacArthur Park" climbed to number two on the American pop charts over a period of 13 weeks, and in the process shattered every preconception of air-time restrictions on AM radio. As Webb later recalled, even stations that didn't want to play the entire single complete were forced to, because their competitors were doing it, and it was too big a hit to ignore. A Tramp Shining also became a hit album, rising as high as number four in July of 1968 and becoming one of the bigger LP successes in Dunhill's '60s output.
Jimmy Webb became as big a music star as Richard Harris did off of "MacArthur Park" and A Tramp Shining. He was credited and his photo appeared on the picture sleeve of the singles, as big as Harris' name and image. Those were the days when concept albums were becoming the rage, and not just from rock artists; Rod McKuen was recording them himself and writing them for others, and Frank Sinatra, who'd been doing albums built around conceptual ideas since the early '50s, grew even more ambitious (and would later hook up with Webb). And the Beatles, Simon & Garfunkel, and dozens of other artists were successfully selling popular music ideas that took up whole sides, or both sides of LPs. And Jimmy Webb was suddenly in their ranks, as visible as any of them, and with a hit to his credit as big as anything that George Martin as a producer or Nelson Riddle as an arranger had signed their names to, respectively. Webb and Harris' second album together, The Yard Went on Forever, was an even more impressive work, with Harris in better voice and Webb writing some of the most haunting lyrics and melodies of his career. The album, lacking a single to match the caliber of "MacArthur Park," never sold as well, but it was an even more prodigious musical achievement.
In the meantime, Glen Campbell's version of Webb's "Wichita Lineman" became a gold record and one of the biggest singles of his career; other Webb-penned hits that followed included "Galveston," "The Worst That Could Happen," "Carpet Man," and "Paper Cup." He also wrote and arranged Thelma Houston's 1969 album Sunshower, and in 1971 wrote his first feature film score, for Frank Perry's Doc. When a number of intended theatrical projects failed to come to fruition, Webb decided to use the unexpected hiatus to his advantage to mount a solo career. He'd previously only been represented on record by an early album of unfinished demos issued by Columbia Records against his wishes, and his first serious ventures into public performance were conducted almost as an underground effort, without much publicity or fanfare. His fans did attend and enjoy them, but his club performances were an acquired taste, marred by his somewhat ragged singing and piano playing. Webb was perhaps closer in spirit to a Leonard Cohen (or, perhaps, Bob Dylan back in his folk club days), presenting his hit songs as much more personal expressions.
An elaborately produced and recorded 1970 official debut album, Words & Music, was followed a year later by the more basic, stripped-down And So On, which included a contribution from jazz guitarist Larry Coryell. Released in 1972, Letters was highlighted by Webb's own rendition of "Galveston," as well as his Righteous Brothers' homage "Just One Time," and featured a cameo appearance by Joni Mitchell, who returned for 1974's Land's End. Webb continued to write and produce throughout the decade, including 1973's The Supremes Arranged and Produced by Jimmy Webb and Glen Campbell's 1974 Reunion; 1975's Earthbound put him back with the Fifth Dimension, and he also wrote and produced for Joan Baez, Joe Cocker, and Frank Sinatra, the latter going out of his way to mention Webb during live performances on more than one occasion. Both Glen Campbell and Judy Collins cut the haunting Webb tune "The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress." And Art Garfunkel's 1978 Watermark -- in large part a Webb songwriting showcase -- was another huge success for all concerned.
Webb's own 1977 album, El Mirage, produced by George Martin, included a new song called "The Highwayman," which was later turned into a hit by a quartet of Johnny Cash, Kris Kristofferson, Willie Nelson, and Waylon Jennings. In 1979, Webb composed songs and a score for the film Voices, a drama about a deaf teacher who had an untapped talent for dance. At that same time he was working on his seventh solo album with the production team of Fred Mollin and Matthew McCauley, who had hit with Dan Hill in 1977, and a host of top-flight L.A. session players that included members of Toto. Before they even started work, they lost their record deal and it took until 1982 for Angel Heart to be released on the short-lived Lorimar Records label.
In 1983, Webb ventured into a new field of music, writing the cantata "The Animals' Christmas," a telling of the Christmas story from the point of view of animals, which had its premiere at New York's Cathedral of St. John the Divine, conducted by the composer and featuring Garfunkel among the performers. In 1988, Webb returned to doing live concerts, accompanied by Coryell, and in 1996 he released the solo recording Ten Easy Pieces, featuring new interpretations of some of his best-known songs. In 1998, Webb's first book, Tunesmith: Inside the Art of Songwriting, was published by Hyperion Press. And in 1999, Australia's Raven Records, which had previously released The Webb Sessions 1968-1969, issued Reunited with Jimmy Webb, a collection of Glen Campbell's recordings of Webb's music from the '70s onward.
England's Debutante Records has also issued a multi-artist tribute compilation to Webb, And Someone Left the Cake Out in the Rain..., featuring performances of his music by Campbell, Linda Ronstadt, the Four Tops, Judy Collins, the Johnny Mann Singers, and others. A concert set, Live and at Large, appeared in 2008. In 2009, Webb teamed up with his three sons -- Christiaan, Justin, and James, aka the touring and recording outfit the Webb Brothers -- to record Cottonwood Farm, released that same year on Proper Records (the U.S. release came two years later in 2011). He released Just Across the River in 2010 on E1 Music. The set features some of his best-known songs, with contributions from fellow artists including Glen Campbell, Mark Knopfler, Linda Ronstadt, and others. A second album of duets, Still Within the Sound of My Voice, again produced by Fred Molin and recorded in Nashville, and featuring contributions from Lyle Lovett, Carly Simon, and Keith Urban, among others, appeared in 2013. His next release was literary rather than musical; his autobiographical book, The Cake and the Rain: A Memoir, was published in 2017. ~ Bruce Eder

My laptop at home is oh so sick and is waiting for the computer repairman (aka Kale) to bring it back to health! I'm getting behind on blog reading (in most cases, just commenting), and I'm really behind on posting.
Life continues to be busy with work, working out, training, and getting ready for the wedding, which is only 2 months away now!!
Speaking of the wedding… they're going with fall colors, mostly chocolate brown, green, and orange. Anyone have any recommendations for what I should wear (as mother of the groom)? The setting will be informal or dressy casual. Have you seen the suggestions for "mother of the bride"? They're really not me. Suggestions?

Neon Genesis Evangelion
Pages 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 NEXT
You Mustn't Run Away
i look forward to evangelion fans meticulously listing every bad thing Gendo's Dad did.
Also still want a giant robot.
Oh my god, exactly! I didn't get it either... That kid was just so ungrateful I stopped watching!
I am in agreement with everything said thus far.
I laughed way harder then I should have..
This can't be an Neon Genesis Evangelion comic.
All that abandoning you for years, using you as a pawn in my schemes, and never treating you like a son. Forcing you to constantly hang around two beautiful women who will never sleep with you and a 'robot' I treat more like my own child than you, that TOTALLY makes up for it right?
... I just now realized. Granted, the guy is still one of the most massive pricks in the universe if you look at everything else he did, but... shit.
Shinji's an ungrateful, whiny bitch.
... btw, I'd honestly accept that offer if it only offered Rei, mainly because I <3 Rei over Asuka and Misato.
Its simple.
In the west we call this the "Shut up and fuck her in the ass" hypothesis.
I can give you the exact reason why this makes sense... because Shinji is a complete toolbox that's lethally uncomfortable around women. This is the kid that was such a watery male that he literally turned into a puddle for an entire episode.
Besides, isn't this an anime trope from way back? The Chaste Hero? The Clueless Chick Magnet?
Well during the obligatory mental breakdowns coming thick and fast towards the end of the series, one of the aforementioned hot girls almost did sleep with him, and the other was a tsundere for him but Shinji was too wrapped up in his own issues to notice... yet was fantasizing about her anyway.
No, no, Shinji is just a shrinking violet on the recieving end of a trauma conga line.
I like big red haired guy with no name. Ima call him fatty red head.
Eh, man up and take what you can get? I can see why you'd be pissed but... smoken babes and alien god robot!
I think that in the end, Gendo really ended up caring more about his daughter, Lizzie.
If my Dad gave me a giant robot and three super hot chicks to live with he could get away with just about anything.
Yeah, that's Evangelion if you leave out
aaaall the character relationships, personalities and psychological issues.
Just those little things, y'know. That little "Deconstruction" thing the show had going on.
You left out who the robot was made out of, and likewise who the "super submissive chick" was engineered from -- because that makes him even more of a dick.
So he get the chance to be bangin' the robot to...? I'm not seeing the problem? If daddy abandoned him for so long, he should have moved on and then proceeded to reap the rewards!
The only logical conclusion as to why Shinji would run away would be if he could foresee the future.
I'd imagine that if anyone could see in the future that, MAJOR SPOILERS HERE, they will pilot a giant robot made from their mom's soul, they will nearly be molested by the hot 30 something with extreme daddy issues, they will find out that the red head they pine for actually becomes a manic depressive who's also a clinger, and that they will grope the submissive chick who later turns out to be their genetic mother, they'd probably high-tail it as well.
But as it stands Shinji can't see the future, he's just an ungrateful bastard who happens to unintentionally try to dodge the bullet.
I really don't like NGE at all. Every episode was just another monster of the day and how they kill it. "THERMAL EXPANSION!!" lol. Shinji was just really whiny and the ending made no sense at all.
That said, even I know that this comic is quite exaggerated.
yeah feeling about the same: son i know i haven't always been there for you and will probably be a prick forever but here's a giant robot and some hot babes
How can you pass up the opportunity to woo a submissive cutie?
The ordering in bulk joke is hilarious if you're familiar with the show.
EWWW! You must not know how gross that is!
If that "guy" doesn't want them I will gladly take them off his hands.
Well, they are crazy bitches and you feel all the pain the robot feels in battle.
Could work well for a sadomasochist.
You think that is bad? In one of the movies he fapped to the unconcious redhead right next to her.
It was fuckin' disgusting and the main reason I stopped watching any animes (except for Death Note/FMA).
I'll just leave this here.
(Not that I mean anything by it, but I always think of this image whenever someone makes the usual complaints about Eva.)
I didn't even watch enough of the show to know all the characters. Because I was pissed off at it by the end of the first episode for other reasons.
TL;DR, If they're trying to stop world-destroying giants, why are they wasting so much power and material?!
She wasn't just in unconscious. Pretty sure she was in hospital at the time too.
Not sure why you stopped watching anime because of one scene though. Seems pretty weird.
Just keep watching the series and you'll see that the Dad isn't so nice any longer. In fact it's actually the reason I stopped reading the manga because the dad would be such an asshole and do such evil things.
The guy just didn't get any happy moments after a certain point.
Ordering in bulk was the funniest part of the strip xD
Ah, shame the Slice site isn't up. Gonna keep checking in.
Lost all faith/interest in it really. It was disgusting, that scene. Thankfully the ending to FMA (the original, not brotherhood) brought renewed interest in the entire genre.
On the contrary, I know exactly how gross that is. He can go back in time and become his own father, then the overly convoluted series won't exist and the world will just be destroyed by the angels, Best ending out there!
Eva... ah, Eva. I watched every single episode in a 24 hour period just so I could scream at the friend who gushed about it, and be able to match him scene for scene. Gods I hated that Anime. And I so wish I had that sort of time these days.
Sure, the whole situation is fucked up for him, but that's all the more reason he should be making the best of it. i.e. The Shut Up And Fuck Her In The Ass Hypothesis.
*looks at Pandora's image*
Oh my...
Fuck. He's absolutely right.
Consider me Hannibal Lectured.

Dodgers fans erupt as Kings claim NHL title
LOS ANGELES -- An earthquake. In the middle of a Dodgers-Giants game. That was the last time A.J. Ellis had heard a crowd reaction so thunderous, so deafening.

LOS ANGELES -- An earthquake. In the middle of a Dodgers-Giants game. That was the last time A.J. Ellis had heard a crowd reaction so thunderous, so deafening.
This time, the earthquake was only figurative.View Full Game Coverage
Ellis was standing on first base with two outs in the sixth inning Friday when -- seemingly out of nowhere -- it happened. Fans jumped out of their Dodger Stadium seats, a sea of hands rose in the air and 42,831 gut-clearing screams joined together in cathartic unison.
All of that certainly wasn't for Chone Figgins, the Dodgers' eight-hole hitter, who stepped to the plate with the home team up, 2-1, over the D-backs.
At that point, Ellis knew: The Kings had won the Stanley Cup, defeating the New York Rangers in Game 5.
"They kept flashing the score on the board, and we knew they were in overtime," Ellis said after the Dodgers' 4-3 win. "As soon as the crowd erupted like that, we knew they weren't getting fired up for a Chone Figgins at-bat with me standing on first base."
The initial roar came without one of the video-board updates that had come throughout the night. The fans were clearly tuned into what the Kings were doing against the Rangers a few miles down the road at Staples Center. As soon as defenseman Alec Martinez knocked in the Cup-winning goal in double overtime, Dodgers fans -- some wearing Kings jerseys to the game -- began their championship celebration, soon chanting, "Go, Kings, go!"
The Kings had mounted, yet again, one of their patented postseason comebacks, tying Game 5, 2-2, with a Marian Gaborik goal in the third period to force overtime in the eventual 3-2 victory.
"Congrats to them. That's awesome," said pitcher Clayton Kershaw, who earned a victory of his own with seven strong innings. "It's a hockey town during the playoffs, and we get that. It's definitely fun to be around, and hopefully those guys come around at some point this year and we get to congratulate them."
When the sixth inning concluded and Martinez's goal and the Kings' subsequent celebration played over the video board, the crowd erupted for a second time. Strangers hugged strangers. Groups jumped en masse. A few fans ran up and down the stadium aisles.
Eventually, the video board flashed, "Congratulations, Kings!" then showed players hoisting the trophy, all while the stadium continued to shake and rattle.
Dodgers manager Don Mattingly said he knew right away what the reaction was for -- it had happened last week, too, when the Kings battled the Chicago Blackhawks.
"We know what's going on," Ellis said. "We're very aware of the Kings and proud of them for what they've accomplished, and hopefully we can do something similar to that here in a couple of months."

The country's big three outsourcers Infosys, Tata Consultancy Services, and Wipro experienced slow revenue or income growth in their just-announced quarterly results for the period that ended June 30.
The results fly in the face of figures in the quarterly index by outsourcing adviser TPI, which shows global spending on outsourcing is on track to break records in 2008, with Europe forging the biggest contracts.
All three of the Indian outsourcers blamed challenging global economic conditions, with Infosys warning the next quarter may continue to be difficult as companies postpone decisions on outsourcing.
Wipro experienced a rise in profits of 15 percent over the same period last year, growing to $187.5 million. Infosys reported revenue of $1.16 billion, up 24.5 percent over the same period last year. Tata's profit was up just 2 percent to $296 million.
Meanwhile TPI's index found that companies signed $25.6 billion worth of outsourcing contracts in the second quarter of 2008--the third quarter in a row to break the $20 billion mark and the best recorded performance of three consecutive quarters.
TPI says this year is on track to see the highest total contract value for outsourcing deals on record.
"Companies across industry segments are expressing their concerns regarding the uncertain business conditions by taking steps to reduce operational costs, and the outsourcing industry is benefiting," Peter Allen, partner and managing director of TPI, said in a statement.
Nick Heath of Silicon.com reported from London.

Hey I really don't know when the damned comic updates (sometime in the afternoon on Mondays and Thurdays) so if you get upset because you're seeing the same lame strip-don't. It'll update in a few hours, and all will be right with the world.
Oh also I know I COULD go and see what times it updates, but that takes out the mystery of the whole thing. It's much more fun to not know at all. (Like how I forgot I signed up for a forum until Justin stumbled across it.)

As homeowners across the country continually update their existing homes as an alternative to moving, you may start to think about getting projects out of the way that you could complete down the road. While you may not want to think about it, growing older in your current space may require various bathroom improvements, so incorporating a few of these into your current remodeling project could save you thousands down the road. Here are a few aging-in-place improvements that can improve your bathroom's utility and get it ready for your golden years.
1. Shower accessories. Mobility is a major concern as people age, so adding a few improvements to your bathtub or shower stall is ideal to avoid falls and ease the strain on joints, according to AARP.com. Consider installing a few handrails on the sides of your bathing area, as well as adding a seat to one end. This can make the shower process much easier as you age, and you can start to enjoy them immediately.
2. Low-impact flooring. Easing strain on joints is a major concern for some people, so removing natural stone or tile that offers less "give" than other floor coverings is a good choice. Cork flooring can be a great improvement that can complement most bathroom decorative schemes and provide far more support for knees and joints. If you've been considering radiant floor heating, cork works very well for its ability to expand and contract with changing temperatures. As an added bonus, the flooring is considered to be a sustainable material since it is harvested from renewable resources.
3. Adequate space. According to AgeInPlace.com, the layout of your bathroom is just as important as the accessories you use to improve its utility. When you start to factor in walkers, wheelchairs and other devices, your washroom must be able to have enough space to move around with these devices. As you're remodeling your bathroom, keep this factor in the back of your mind to increase traffic flow and versatility in the future.
Thinking of how you're going to deal with your bathroom in your later years is not something that most people want to think about, but it could be a good investment to get out of the way. Aging in place improvements can help save you thousands in renovations and instantly make your bathroom a safer place.

Surf's up!
This second largest of the Canary Islands chain is unashamedly a beach-lovers paradise. With a climate akin to Florida, it has more to offer than miles of golden sands and world class resorts. Strong winds whip the Atlantic into a frenzy, so it's a mecca for surf dudes, windsurfers and kitesurfers, of all shapes and sizes.
The opening of Puerto del Rosario's Las Rotondas (Francisco Pi y Arsuaga 2) in 2006 has transformed retail therapy on Fuerteventura. With more than 100 international high-street names, it's hugely popular with tourists, and most resorts operate daily shuttle buses to and from the mall. For something a little more interesting, try Corralejo's high street, which although overflowing with ubiquitous names also has a twice weekly street market where you can find handmade crafts, tacky tourist sombreros and unusual local produce.
Food & Drink
Fuerteventura's gastronomic scene is seafood-heavy, with most restaurants offering a bewildering array of fresh fish. Inland, goat, rabbit and gofio (roasted cornmeal) are popular but wherever you go, you'll always find patatas arragudas (wrinkled potatoes) served up with fiery red mojo sauce. For seafood, El Cotillo's Marisma restaurant (Santo Tomas) is run by three brothers who not only cook their fish but catch it too. Also worth a look is Fazz's (Playa Cho Leon 32) in Corralejo, which specialises in hearty Canarian fare. For tapas, Casa Marcos (Carretera General 94) is a local favourite that can't be beaten.
Fuerteventura Carnival
Like the rest of the Canaries, February is party time as the Fuerteventura Carnival celebrations kick off. Expect parades, funfair rides and plenty of food at street parties up and down the island.
D�a de la Cruz
From Corralejo in the north to Gran Tarajal in the south, May sees fabulously decorated crosses festooned with flowers pop up across the island during a religious fiesta that commemorates the Passion. It's not all religion though: colourful costumes and street parties are also on the menu.
Fuerteventura's answer to Glastonbury takes place every June in El Cotillo and attracts an interesting line-up of international and Spanish acts. Part concert and part beach party, it boasts a relaxed atmosphere and an enthusiastic crowd of revellers.
D�a de la Hispanidad
12 October
As with the rest of Spain, 12 October is a big day for Fuerteventura when the locals celebrate all things Spanish on national day. Expect street parties, free-flowing wine and fascinating historical displays.
International Kite Festival
Attracting 'kiters' from all over Europe, Fuerteventura's three-day Kite Festival takes place on the vast Playa del Burro beach just south of Corralejo. Along with demonstrations from the professionals, visitors can try their hand at flying a kite of their own.
Most visitors to Fuerteventura head to the sunny beach resorts of Corralejo, Jand�a and Caleta de Fuste, and it is in one of these that you'll find the majority of places to stay. For luxury, try the Gran Hotel Atlantis Bah�a Real (Avenida Grandes Playas) in Corralejo – a gorgeous colonnaded palace with its own spa and lush tropical gardens. Equally lovely is Costa Calma's Melia Gorriones (Playa Barca, P�jara), which boasts its own scuba-diving centre. For comfortable self-catering, try the Sol Jand�a Mar (Benteju� 8) in the pretty town of Morro del Jable.

Hot Spots: A new level of backup reporting
Backup success rates are improving, but reliable data recovery can still be a nightmare. The good news is that backup reporting tools can give you more insight than ever into the sometimes mysterious process of data protection.
| A bumper crop of backup reporting tools can provide invaluable insight into backup operations for you and the boss.
The good news is that a collection of vendor offerings has arrived to address the need to provide reporting beyond a single backup event. More recently, reporting has moved beyond the data center. That's due to a growing concern on the behalf of executive management, who's being held accountable for compliance with regulatory mandates. Backup reporting has evolved to focus more on providing visibility into storage assets, system vulnerabilities, performance metrics, capacity trending and forecasting, service levels and compliance. Now business-level reporting defines this class of products--exposing C-level, line-of-business and compliance executives to business issues in the data protection environment.
By responding to these new demands, Bocada can be considered a pioneer in this market. The firm targets the distributed multivendor backup environments of medium- to large-sized enterprises. Bocada Enterprise is sold as a perpetual license or via a subscription model, providing flexibility to budget-challenged companies. Bocada Enterprise's longevity has bolstered its installed base, which has helped drive the product's feature set; Bocada has announced reporting and management support for the latest version of Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager.
WysDM Software has a product that rivals Bocada's popularity, especially through its OEM relationships with Double-Take Software and EMC. WysDM for Backups stands apart with its predictive capabilities. It analyzes trending data to predict critical failures, produce alerts and proactively avoids problems before they impact operations. Alerts can be triggered for conditions such as a backup failure, high restore time, component failure, atypical performance, capacity warning, compliance violation, or an unmet policy occurring now or possibly in the future.
The EMC-branded WysDM technology is delivered as EMC Backup Advisor and is bolstered by EMC's worldwide sales, services and support. For example, EMC successfully leverages Backup Advisor in its backup/recovery/archiving assessments. Backup Advisor is differentiated by its support for the EMC Disk Library, enabling virtual tape library disk capacity and utilization reporting.
Servergraph, acquired by Rocket Software, is well-known for its niche support of IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM). Servergraph has since expanded its backup app coverage to include EMC NetWorker, CA ARCserve Backup and Symantec Veritas NetBackup. The product excels with its slick graphical monitoring, self-healing capabilities and optional data center-ready appliance delivery.
Similar to Servergraph's initial single-vendor focus, Aptare's StorageConsole originally concentrated on Symantec's Veritas NetBackup. The company added support for TSM, EMC's NetWorker and Avamar, Symantec's Backup Exec and Veritas NetBackup PureDisk, CommVault Simpana and Hewlett-Packard Data Protector. The company's partnership with Hitachi Data Systems broadens its opportunities, and its new capacity management solution--providing monitoring and reporting for primary storage capacity and utilization--delivers new depth to the company's StorageConsole platform.
Tek-Tools' Profiler provides more depth than any of its competitors in this category, reporting on server, storage, application and backup components (although most of its customers rely on the backup reporting module). Similar to a storage resource management solution, but smaller in scale, Profiler is appealing to midsized organizations with a need for end-to-end real-time and historical resource reporting.
Symantec, with its Veritas Backup Reporter, has the distinction, like EMC, of being a backup software provider that has a reporting solution for its systems as well as its competition. Introduced last year, Veritas Backup Reporter made an impressive debut with support for top-tier backup apps. It collects data on backup processes, systems, platforms and devices, aggregating and storing the information in a relational database. It offers hundreds of out-of-the-box reports and a report wizard to extract and manipulate data.
Once data is collected, the IT organization can assess its levels of data protection. Inefficiencies and bottlenecks in the backup process are more easily highlighted so organizations can understand where gaps and vulnerabilities exist. Armed with better information, policies can be established or improved. Trending information (whether analyzed manually or fed into predictive analysis features) allows administrators to eliminate surprises.
Large enterprises' backup environments are almost always characterized by the operation of more than one backup app. The ability to support more than one backup app, and perform cross-domain collection and reporting, is important because it provides administrators with the ability to correlate data from the different domains in the backup environment to get a big picture view of backup operations. Developing and publishing policies across different domains in the backup environment is another useful capability.
Each of the vendors I've mentioned has adopted a browser-based user interface that can be launched from anywhere on the network (locally or remotely). Adaptable dashboard views allow data to be formatted for any given audience. Similarly, made-to-order reports and the ability to publish them through email, an intranet, and Excel or PDF file formats are important. Customizable alerts--what events trigger them, who receives them and the method of delivery (SNMP, email, pager or console message)--differentiate reporting solutions.
Customization, in general, is a useful attribute. For example, setting role- or user-based access to information or reports; establishing user-configurable parameters for reporting, trending and analytics; as well as generating reports by geography, business unit, app or other user-defined parameters are just a few areas where flexibility is a benefit.
Backup failures are chronic, time-consuming and costly. Deploying business-level backup reporting can change the life of a backup administrator, as well as the effectiveness of an IT organization. In addition to assessing inefficiencies and vulnerabilities, backup reporting products enable organizations to prove recoverability of data for SLAs and regulatory mandate audits. Through these tools, IT (and its business constituents) may understand the true costs of data protection vs. SLA effectiveness. Armed with more information, companies can make better decisions for data protection, while saving time and money, increasing customer satisfaction and reducing risk.

Helping cats and kittens on their way to adoption
Perfection: our younger son, a philosophy major, insists there is no such thing. I disagree, because nature provided kittens.
True, kittens don't stay kittens for as long as I'd like. Our house is too small to continually add more. So until we can retire to a cat ranch, my husband and I enjoy perpetual kittens as part of a five-county foster-home network. The payoff is twofold: along with contributing to an orphan's bright future, we get the playtime fun a pet naturally inspires.
In 26 years we have helped many cats and kittens on their way to adoption.
So Many Creatures
Many Ways to Help
To pass laws to protects animals, you can sign up (at no cost) as a supporter of Maryland Votes for Animals: VoteAnimals.org. The Animal Legal Defense Fund rates Maryland near the bottom — number 39 of 50 states — in animal protection.
1040 Prince Frederick Blvd., Prince Frederick: 410-535-9300; www.cawlrescue.org
P.O. Box 325, Port Republic: 410-414-2122 www.friends-of-felines.com
The numbers of homeless animals are staggering. County agencies resort to euthanasia to manage the unwanted animal problem. In Maryland, over 45,000 cats and dogs are killed each year, at an estimated cost of $8 to 9 million. In Anne Arundel County, 3,549 were euthanized in 2012. Tri-County Animal Shelter in Hughesville euthanized 6,023.
That's way too many, don't you think?
Rescue groups have evolved because individuals see the need and feel compelled to help. Calvert County has five organizations focusing on cats and dogs, with others devoted to horses, ferrets and even hedgehogs.
My husband Michael and I volunteer with Friends of Felines, founded in 2000. Foster families are caretakers while Friends pays medical bills, provides supplies and seeks permanent homes.
Economic upheaval has complicated rescue efforts. Fewer pets are being adopted, and a significant number of previously adopted animals are being abandoned or returned to shelters. Some are jetsam of divorce or relocation; others are given up for financial reasons.
At Home with Kitties
We've fostered many kittens, but none so young as the bottle babies found by a worker at Calvert County's Industrial Park last July. All experienced hands were full, so it was up to us to save two six-ounce kittens, one gold and white, the other entirely white except for a charcoal brush mark on top of her head.
Each litter of kittens is assigned a letter of the alphabet. These were V kitties, on 2012's second go-round. Vincent took milk from a syringe reluctantly at first, then quickly graduated to a doll-sized bottle. Vesper wouldn't suckle, so I dribbled one teaspoon of formula into her at a time. I crocheted a little wool basket for her bed. A visit to the vet and specialized medical care followed, but Vesper died. Many young kittens do not survive, often because they lack the immunities only a nursing mother can provide. I buried Vesper under a hydrangea where the wrens gather.
To keep Vincent company came two gold-and-white brothers, Hemi and Henry. Vincent learned to eat out of a dish after wading in and spluttering out many times. His wobbly hop became a graceful stride.
In late August, Vincent and his new brothers moved to another family so that we could help a foster mother caring for seven at-risk kittens. The oldest litter, three black kittens abandoned four weeks earlier, had been left on a hot day inside a rural route mailbox. Ten days old, severely underweight, they were saved by frequent bottle-feedings and constant love.
These were Cs in yet a third alphabet. Affectionate and energetic, Clementine, Carma and Carmello gained weight steadily. Their sparse fur filled in, Clementine black with white toes, her siblings a lighter sable shade. Clementine learned to scramble over the baby gate to greet us in the kitchen and enjoyed checking e-mail, watching sports on TV and eating supper with the big cats. Carma and Carmello were more cautious, watching from their side of the gate but never venturing over.
Meeting the Challenge
As we are having fun watching youngsters, many more people are working in other ways to improve animals' lives.
Calvert Well Pet Clinic in Huntingtown, for example, offers spay/neuter services and preventive healthcare. SPOT thrift store in St. Leonard devotes all proceeds to animal rescue. In 2012, it provided spay/neuter grants for 696 cats and dogs. No-kill shelters promote spay/neuter education and sponsor community events.
Friends of Felines has a special mission. Volunteers act as liaisons in communities and commercial areas where feral-cat colonies exist. To stabilize feral populations, Friends follows the Trap-Neuter-Return-Maintain program pioneered by the national organization Alley Cat Allies.
Feral and abandoned cats are trapped for testing, neutering and vaccinations. Young kittens and adoptable cats are fostered, then adopted into homes. Adults are ideally returned to their established territories so that other cats cannot move in and multiply. Friends rescues about 500 cats every year, operating entirely on donations. "We are saving lives," says Colleen Pellagatti, "and taxpayer dollars."
A task force appointed by Governor O'Malley estimated that the alternative — trapping, transporting, housing and euthanizing a cat or dog — costs $175 to $200 per animal.
Animal advocates and rescuers are boundless in their devotion. For many, the reward is an inherent one. Carol Hall and Mary Baldwin, longtime rescue advocates, dispense advice and undiminished optimism, burnished by hard-won wisdom. "All of us are a little crazy," says Mary, "but we love the work."
Sheila Dempsey of Huntingtown, representing the Hedgehog Welfare Society, braved blizzard and ice storm to rescue 140 of the 800 hedgehogs being held illegally in a Texas importer's warehouse. She located homes for each one.
In Deale, a restaurant patron returned every day for months to feed a colony of cats and befriended those young enough to be domesticated. "I came for the margaritas," explains PAWS volunteer Cathy Terril, "and stayed for the cats."
Marion Beth Hosmer of Crownsville works throughout Maryland to keep families and cats together. She uses a drop trap to capture cats wary of traditional entry-triggered crates, and finds resources to provide spay/neuter services. She is passionate about community outreach and ending overpopulation. "I see cats established where people live, and both the cats and the people need a little help to cope. I want to bridge that gap."
Dr. Michelle Quigley has founded the Bottle Baby Project, supported by Last Chance Animal Rescue. She recruits volunteers to transport and bottle-feed very young kittens and gives workshops to teach the techniques to volunteers.
"Countless unweaned kittens are being euthanized at shelters. I knew I could organize a group and coordinate getting these kittens into foster care and forever homes. It's exhausting sometimes, but worth it," she said.
Happy Trails
Our foster kittens have been fortunate. Vincent was adopted in September by a young woman who saw his picture on the Petfinder.com website. He has been renamed Pickle. I feel he deserves a more-dignified name but am reminded of T.S. Eliot's theory: Whatever we call a cat is irrelevant, because every kitten is born knowing its one true name. Still, I'm pretty sure that would never be Pickle.
Michael and Cathryn Freeburger provide foster homes to kittens waiting to be adopted from shelters.
Henry and Hemi spent a few days at Prince Frederick Petco, where space is donated to show adoption candidates. Each has found a loving home. The Mailbox Kittens have been adopted as well, Carmello by a young family with a tradition of naming pets for candy, so he will keep his name. Carma was adopted by a woman suffering with fybromyalgia, who will find comfort in the kitty's gentle nature. Clementine has been welcomed into a three-generation household, which may be just enough to keep up with her.
If you have a place in your heart and home for a cat or kitten, dog or rabbit or hedgehog, you will be saving two lives — that of your new companion as well as that of the lucky one taking its place in foster care.
Wonderful article. Nicely written and thank you to the great foster families that are leading the way to a healthier life for the little animals and a better pet for the new forever families that adopt them. Keep up the great work. - Lorian, Annapolis, Md http://www.dogdaz.com

MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga. – The Georgia College softball squad (13-11) split a pair of tight ones against Tusculum College (16-9) at the Peeler Complex Wednesday night, losing 2-1 in the first and winning 2-1 in the second.
In game one the Pioneers used small ball and timely hitting to strike first taking a 1-0 lead. After Whitney Okvist (Kennesaw, Ga.) reached second on an error by the left fielder, senior Haley Burnett (Columbus, Ga.) drove her in with a single to right field. Tusculum struck again with a two-out hit by Kaytlin Stroinski in the third to take the 2-1 advantage.
Burnett finished 2-for-3 with an RBI. Natalie Bellantoni (Oviedo, Fla.) and Alex Duvall (Douglas, Ga.) both added one hit apiece. Sabrina Chandler (Covington, Ga.) (5-3) pitched another great game for the 'Cats scattering two hits over seven innings, only allowing two earned runs and fanning five.
In game two both teams were held scoreless until the bottom of the third when Burnett hit a towering two-run shot to left field putting the Bobcats ahead. Burnett got into trouble in the fourth when she walked two batters and then gave up a single that scored Stroinski. Erica Bell (Fayetteville, Ga.) came in for damage control and recorded a 1-2-3 inning. The freshman threw four innings picking up the win (3-1), surrendering no hits and striking out six.
Burnett finished 4-for-6 with one home run, three RBI and one run scored. She is currently fourth on the all-time home run list with 21, four behind Keidra Baitey (2006-07) for sole possession of first place.
Okvist stole three bags Wednesday night and is a perfect 31-of-31 on the base paths this season, putting her second on the single-season record list, one behind Leigh Jacobs (1995-1998). She has a combined 55 stolen bases in her first two seasons placing her third on the all-time list and just six behind Aundrea Baker (2003-2006) for sole possession of second place.

520SL with Drake T-4XB amateur radio transmitterFAQ #1777
Question:I saw the question in the FAQ about the resistor value in a model 520 - 39,000 ohms. Does the 520SL use the same value resistor? Mine has a 28,000 ohm resistor in it, and I seem to be having difficulty with getting proper audio output when using it with a Drake T-4XB amateur radio transmitter. Any additional information you might have on troubleshooting the use of this microphone with this transmitter would be appreciated.
The resistor value is unlikely to be the source of your problem. Please read the following to understand the three parameters that determine if a Shure mic will work properly with your radio.
What specifications determine if a Shure microphone will properly operate with your camcorder or your tape recorder or your radio or your computer sound card or your anything!
Shure is often asked "Will microphone model X work with my …….?" While we would love to have the microphone input specifications of each and every device in the world that needs a microphone, it is an impossible task. So for us to help you select the proper microphone, we need you to provide the following three vital specifications for the microphone input of your device. Typically, these specifications will be provided in the Owner's Manual for your device or you may have to call the manufacturer of the device.
Typically called "Input Sensitivity" or "Nominal Input Level", this specification indicates how large of a signal the microphone must supply to satisfy the microphone input of your device. This specification might be given in millivolts (mV), or volts (V), or in a minus dB form (-dBV, -dBm, -dBu, -dBs).
In the Shure product line, there is a wide variation of signal levels available depending on the microphone model. If you select a microphone whose signal level is too low for your device, the audio will be noisy and low in level. If you select a microphone whose signal level is too great for your device, the audio will be distorted and unintelligible. Proper matching of the microphone's signal level to your device's required input level is imperative.
Typically called "Input Impedance" or "Actual Input Impedance", this specification is important as it will determine the proper impedance range of the chosen microphone. This specification will be given in ohms. Contrary to popular audio mythology, the impedance of a microphone does not need to match the input impedance of your device.
In the Shure product line, there are multiple impedances available depending on the microphone model. If you select a microphone whose impedance is lower than or equal to your device's input impedance, the microphone will work if it provides the proper signal level (see #1 above). If you select a microphone whose impedance is greater than your device's input impedance, the microphone will not deliver its full signal level to your device and the audio will be noisy and low in level.
This final specification is the type of microphone input connector on your device, how many connection points are in the connector, and what is the function of each connection point. This specification will be the name of the connector, such as: XLR female, 3.5mm mini-phone plug, TRS 1/4" female phone jack, screw terminals, TINI QG connector. Each of these has at least two connection points and most have three (or more) connection points. It is imperative that the function of each connection point be known so that the proper microphone wiring can be determined.
In the Shure product line, there are many wiring schemes available depending on the microphone model. If the microphone connections are not properly matched to your device's input connector, there may be no audio, or funny sounding audio, or the microphone might be damaged if there is an unknown voltage appearing on your device's connection points.
As you can see, there are many variables that affect whether a particular microphone will work with your device. Shure will be happy to assist in your microphone selection, but to do the job correctly, we need you to provide the pieces of this technical puzzle that Shure does not have: the audio input specifications of your device.

A mother in Denton County, Texas, has been arrested after she allegedly forced her way onto a school bus Tuesday and hit and kicked some of the children on board.
The woman accused of the assault, Alexandria Harris, 32, of Little Elm, was arrested on three counts of injury to a child.
Police said the incident happened on the 2600 bock of Harbor Lights Drive near Harris' home.
"She was really mad. She was, like, really angry," said Austin Muller, a sixth-grade student at Little Elm Middle School who was on the bus when the incident happened.
Muller, 11, spoke to NBC 5 about what happened with his parents' permission.
He said the bus driver tried to close the door as she approached, but she used her hands to pry open the door.
"The bus driver was yelling at her, 'Get off my bus right now,'" Muller said.
The school bus driver called police after the woman boarded the bus while at a stop, according to a news release from the Little Elm Independent School District.
She asked for certain children by name and was cussing, Muller said.
"She was trying to find these three kids," Muller said. "She was trying to defend her daughter, I'm guessing, because everybody was picking on her daughter and I guess she just wanted to get them back."
Muller said he heard that some students were teasing the woman's daughter, but had not witnessed it.
"And she was like pushing kids over," he said. "This one kid fell over on the aisle."
Harris said students were startled. "Everybody got scared," he said.
Some students ran for cover in the back of the bus, he said.
"She hit a lot, like a whole lot," Harris said. "Like the kid who was standing next to me in the alley, he got hit and kicked in the leg."
Police said the students, an 11-year-old boy, 12-year-old boy and an 11-year-old girl, suffered minor injuries in the attack but did not need medical treatment.
The district and police noted that allegations and speculation of bullying had been circulating on social media. In response to that, the district said they take the safety of all students seriously and work daily to insure the children are learning in a secure environment.
"We are in full cooperation with the Little Elm Police Department," said Lynne Leuthard, superintendent of schools. "I encourage anyone with information surrounding this situation to contact the police immediately."
Harris remained in the Denton County jail Wednesday evening on $30,000 bond. She has no known criminal history.

Tim Kimball
Asking for the Inestimable Right: New Mexico's State Government of 1850
During spring of 1850 New Mexicans organized a state government and petitioned the US Senate for admission. Calling the promises made by Polk and Kearny in 1846, New Mexico possessed a greater population than most previous territories granted statehood. National hurdles of slavery, anti-Catholicism, and racism doomed this first attempt at statehood in a complex drama that continued for another 62 years.
Tim Kimball is an independent researcher and Army-trained intelligence analyst and is literate in Spanish and German. Tim's special interest is in archival research on occupation-era New Mexico and its application to a more complete record of the period. He has published several articles and given several presentations on his interpretations.
Join us in the newly renovated Botts Hall at the Albuquerque Special Collections Library on Central and Edith! This presentation is the first of the 2012 New Mexico Centennial Program. Come help us celebrate every third Saturday of the month, January through November, 2012. For more information about our programs, check out the New Mexico Genealogical Society's website at http://www.nmgs.org/.
This program is free and open to the public.

Poached Salmon Mousseline
Today I made a salmon mousse flavored with horseradish, lemon zest and herbs. Whisked egg whites provide structural integrity to the mousse, and cream gives it an airy, ethereal texture. I poached the salmon mousseline in individual molds to keep the salmon moist and tender.
This is a great main course for an elegant Christmas meal. Come back tomorrow to see how I would serve this dish!
Yields: 10 servings1-1/2 pounds wild salmon (about 2 salmon), skinless
1-1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1-1/2 teaspoons black peppercorns
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1-3/4 cups heavy cream
1 tablespoon onion chives, finely snipped
6 egg whites
2 lemons
1 tablespoon fresh dill, finely chopped
1-1/2 tablespoons horseradish mustard
1/2 teaspoon pink peppercorns
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 shallot
1 carrot, sliced
1 celery stalk, sliced
1 bay leaf, torn in half
1 sprig thyme
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
Zest and gather 1 teaspoon of lemon zest. Cut 10 thin slices of lemon and juice the rest. Set all 3 aside, separately.
Ask your fishmonger to skin the salmon fillets, get the pin bones removed and keep the bones and trimmings. Pat dry using paper towels. Cube the fillets into small chunks. Season with salt, freshly ground black pepper and cayenne powder. Plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for an hour.
Pat the salmon cubes dry one more time. Place the salmon in a food processor. Add the chives, lemon zest, horseradish mustard, pink peppercorns, dill and cream. Briefly pulse the salmon about 3 or 4 times. The salmon should still be chunky. Transfer to a mixing bowl.
In another bowl, whisk the egg whites for about 2 minutes at a low speed. Increase the speed of your mixer and keep beating for another 2-3 minutes until they form soft peaks. Don't over-beat or the texture will become grainy.
Using a silicone spatula, mix 1/3 of the whipped egg whites with the salmon mixture to soften it. Add the rest of the whipped egg whites and gently in fold in the eggs to get an airy batter.
Create 10 (2-1/2-inch) disks and 10 (8-inch by 1-inch) rectangles with parchment paper. Line 10 (2-1/2-inch) round mini-molds with the parchment paper disks. Place the rectangles along the sides of the molds, using the parchment paper as a liner against the wall of the molds. Fill them with the salmon mousse. Top each mold with a thin slice of lemon.
In a pot, make a fish stock. Heat the oil. Add the shallot and cook until translucent. Add the carrot, celery, bay leaf, thyme (see tips). Add 1/2 cup of water if the ingredients start sticking to the bottom of the pot. Cook for about 4-5 minutes. Add the bones and trimmings of the fish and about 6 cups of water. Bring the liquid to a boil. Regularly skim the impurities rising to the surface of the broth using a fine mesh strainer. Add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar, 1-1/2 teaspoons of salt and the whole black peppercorns. Cook for about 30 minutes. Strain the fish stock through a fine-mesh sieve into the soup pot (discard the solids). Place a pop-up steamer basket in the pot. Top with the salmon molds. The level of fish stock should go half-way up the side of the molds. Poach the salmon (see tips) for about 20-25 minutes. Unmold the salmon, remove the lemon slices and drizzle with lemon juice. Garnish with extra dill.
You can serve the salmon mousseline with boiled potatoes and a wasabi-flavored yogurt sauce or a chimichurri sauce (parsley, a lot of olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic).
Stay tuned for tomorrow's recipe and see how I dressed the salmon mousseline.
To check the salmon for doneness, gently press the salmon with your finger. If the fish begins to flake, the salmon is cooked. If it isn't done, put the mold back on the steamer basket and poach the salmon for another 5 minutes or until done.
Using a thermometer, the temperature of the fish stock should be between 165°F and 180°F while poaching the salmon.
I poached the salmon in individual molds (the same ones I used for the maple fig tartlets.). The one pictured was poached in non-stick silicone rum baba molds but they were too tall for what how I wanted to dress the salmon mousseline with.
You can find horseradish mustard in most regular chain stores, such as Safeway. Look for the Maille brand mustard.
Do not discard the remaining fish stock; I'll show you how to make good use of it in my next dish.
For the fish stock, I only used a bay leaf and thyme but the traditional way to make it is with a bouquet garni, composed of sprigs of thyme, 1 bay leaf (torn in half), 1 small portion of leek (only the green part) and a few flat-leaf parsley stems. Gather all the ingredients of the bouquet garni in a large teabag (I buy these at Daiso, the Japanese version of a 99-cent store. They cost $1.50 for 40 tea bags) or a square of cheesecloth and tie it with some twine.
I used a fresh bay leaf from the garden, but you can use the dry version if you can't get your hands on fresh leaves.Published By: on December 20, 2009.

How to install Hedge from Git
This process has been mostly superseded by DevEnvironmentHowto.
You're looking at the generic instructions for installing hedge. You may be able to save a fair bit of work by using these distribution- or machine-specific instructions:
This tutorial will walk you through the process of building hedge. To follow, you need:
- A UNIX-like machine with web access.
A C++ compiler, a version 4.x gcc is preferred. (Debian/Ubuntu package g++. The installation has been tested with gcc 4.3 and newer.)
A working Python installation, Version 2.4 or newer, with development headers (Debian/Ubuntu package python-dev or newer. Python 3 is only supported by some packages for now, but definitely in the cards for the future.)
A version of Numpy. (Debian/Ubuntu package python-numpy)
The git Version control system. (Debian/Ubuntu package git)
Don't forget that this is a Wiki. If something in here doesn't work for you, either say so on the discussion page linked in the header, or, even better, improve this document if you can. Thanks! (You don't even need to create an account.)
Hedge can take advantage of some extra packages:
To build, follow the instructions below: (Note that bold face indicates the directory for each command.)
Install Boost C++ (version 1.35 or newer)
Place this text in $HOME/.aksetup-defaults.py:
BOOST_INC_DIR = ['${HOME}/pool/include/boost-1_38/'] BOOST_LIB_DIR = ['${HOME}/pool/lib'] USE_SHIPPED_BOOST = False
Follow the instructions on Repo using the manifest hedge.xml.
Compiling with BLAS and LAPACK
This is optional.
Make sure you have a usable installation of BLAS and LAPACK. Use of ATLAS for accelerated BLAS operation is highly recommended. Then add adaptations of the following lines to your $HOME/.aksetup-defaults.py:
HAVE_BLAS = True HAVE_LAPACK = True BLAS_LIBNAME = ['f77blas','atlas','gfortran'] LAPACK_LIBNAME = ['lapack'] # if necessary: # BLAS_LIB_DIR = ['/some/where'] # LAPACK_LIB_DIR = ['/some/where']
Note that these modifications should be performed before the final install step. (Otherwise rebuild.) You are using Debian/Ubuntu? To install BLAS and LAPACK try:
sudo aptitude install libatlas-dev liblapack-dev
Compiling with libsilo
This is optional.
Download and compile libsilo from here: https://wci.llnl.gov/codes/silo/downloads.html
silo-4.7 ./configure --prefix=$HOME/pool --without-readline --without-python --without-hdf5 --disable-silex
- If the final step above results in the error message 'couldn't find Silo.h' try rerunning this step as: ./configure --prefix=$HOME/pool --disable-silex
silo-4.7 make install
Add the following lines to $HOME/.aksetup-defaults.py:
SILO_INC_DIR = ['${HOME}/pool/include'] SILO_LIB_DIR = ['${HOME}/pool/lib']
Do this before the final build step.
Visualizing hedge's Results
Use one of
Problems and Solutions
Using the right Editor
As an ex-Windows user, I edited $HOME/.aksetup-defaults.py with openoffice. This can be a bad idea : http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0263/
So it would be best to stick to Emacs, Vi/Vim, or IDLE.
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgfortran
If you get the following error:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgfortran
You might try to remove gfortran from your BLAS LIBNAMES:
BLAS_LIBNAME = ['f77blas','atlas']
Getting help with problems
Please sign up for the Hedge/MailingList and ask there.

- 3 out of 5
Haley Miller –
Trifla Guggul has a very different taste, not like the usual medicines. So if you want to gain a healthy body then you have to oversee the taste. It's obviously a nice medicine and pretty strong. I feel quite better now with these tablets. Thanks.
