MySQL Cluster NDB 7.1.4 is a new release of MySQL Cluster,
incorporating new features in the
NDB storage engine and fixing
recently discovered bugs in MySQL Cluster NDB 7.1.3 and previous
MySQL Cluster releases.
Obtaining MySQL Cluster NDB 7.1. The latest MySQL Cluster NDB 7.1 binaries for supported platforms can be obtained from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/cluster/. Source code for the latest MySQL Cluster NDB 7.1 release can be obtained from the same location. You can also access the MySQL Cluster NDB 7.1 development source tree at https://code.launchpad.net/~mysql/mysql-server/mysql-cluster-7.1.
This release also incorporates all bugfixes and changes made in previous MySQL Cluster releases, as well as all bugfixes and feature changes which were added in mainline MySQL 5.1 through MySQL 5.1.44 (see Changes in MySQL 5.1.44 (2010-02-04)).
Functionality Added or Changed
Important Change: The maximum number of attributes (columns plus indexes) per table has increased to 512.
--wait-nodes option has been added for
ndb_waiter. When this option is used, the
program waits only for the nodes having the listed IDs to reach
the desired state. For more information, see
ndb_waiter — Wait for MySQL Cluster to Reach a Given Status.
(Bug #52323)
As part of this change, new methods relating to default values
have been added to the
Table classes in the NDB
API. For more information, see
Column::setDefaultValue(), and
(Bug #30529)
Added the MySQL Cluster management server option
--config-cache, which makes it
possible to enable and disable configuration caching. This
option is turned on by default; to disable configuration
caching, start ndb_mgmd with
--config-cache=0, or with
--skip-config-cache. See
ndb_mgmd — The MySQL Cluster Management Server Daemon, for more
Added the
option for ndb_restore. This option causes
ndb_restore to ignore any schema objects
which it does not recognize. Currently, this is useful chiefly
for restoring native backups made from a cluster running MySQL
Cluster NDB 7.0 to a cluster running MySQL Cluster NDB 6.3.
Incompatible Change; Cluster API: The default behavior of the NDB API Event API has changed as follows:
Previously, when creating an
Event, DDL operations (alter
and drop operations on tables) were automatically reported on
any event operation that used this event, but as a result of
this change, this is no longer the case. Instead, you must now
invoke the event's
setReport() method, with
the new
EventReport value
ER_DDL, to get this behavior.
For existing NDB API applications where you wish to retain the
old behavior, you must update the code as indicated previously,
then recompile, following an upgrade. Otherwise, DDL operations
are no longer reported after upgrading
For more information, see The Event::EventReport Type, and Event::setReport(). (Bug #53308)
After creating
NDB tables until
creation of a table failed due to
NDB error 905 Out of
attribute records (increase MaxNoOfAttributes), then
MaxNoOfAttributes and
restarting all management node and data node processes,
attempting to drop and re-create one of the tables failed with
the error Out of table records..., even
when sufficient table records were available.
(Bug #53944)
References: See also: Bug #52055. This issue is a regression of: Bug #44294.
Creating a Disk Data table, dropping it, then creating an
in-memory table and performing a restart, could cause data node
processes to fail with errors in the
kernel block if the new table's internal ID was the same as
that of the old Disk Data table. This could occur because undo
log handling during the restart did not check that the table
having this ID was now in-memory only.
(Bug #53935)
A table created while
ndb_table_no_logging was
enabled was not always stored to disk, which could lead to a
data node crash with Error opening DIH schema files
for table.
(Bug #53934)
An internal buffer allocator used by
NDB has the form
alloc( and attempts to
wanted pages, but is
permitted to allocate a smaller number of pages, between
wanted and
minimum. However, this allocator
could sometimes allocate fewer than
minimum pages, causing problems with
multi-threaded building of ordered indexes.
(Bug #53580)
When compiled with support for
epoll but this
functionality is not available at runtime, MySQL Cluster tries
to fall back to use the
select() function in
its place. However, an extra
ndbout_c() call
in the transporter registry code caused ndbd
to fail instead.
(Bug #53482)
The value set for the ndb_mgmd option
--ndb-nodeid was not verified
prior to use as being within the permitted range (1 to 255,
inclusive), leading to a crash of the management server.
(Bug #53412)
NDB truncated a column declared as
DECIMAL(65,0) to a length of 64.
Now such a column is accepted and handled correctly. In cases
where the maximum length (65) is exceeded,
NDB now raises an error instead of
(Bug #53352)
When an
NDB log handler failed, the memory
allocated to it was freed twice.
(Bug #53200)
higher than 4G on 32-bit platforms caused
ndbd to crash, instead of failing gracefully
with an error.
(Bug #52536, Bug #50928)
When the
parameter was set using with a relative path, the management
server failed to store its value unless started with
--initial or
(Bug #52268)
When creating an index,
NDB failed
to check whether the internal ID allocated to the index was
within the permissible range, leading to an assertion. This
issue could manifest itself as a data node failure with
NDB error 707 (No more
table metadata records (increase MaxNoOfTables)),
when creating tables in rapid succession (for example, by a
script, or when importing from mysqldump),
even with a relatively high value for
MaxNoOfTables and a
relatively low number of tables.
(Bug #52055)
ndb_restore did not raise any errors if hashmap creation failed during execution. (Bug #51434)
Specifying the node ID as part of the
--ndb-connectstring option to
mysqld was not handled correctly.
The fix for this issue includes the following changes:
Multiple occurrences of any of the mysqld
--ndb-mgmd-host, and
--ndb-nodeid are now handled
in the same way as with other MySQL server options, in that
the value set in the last occurrence of the option is the
value that is used by mysqld.
Now, if
--ndb-nodeid is used,
its value overrides that of any
setting used in
--ndb-connectstring. For
example, starting mysqld with
--ndb-nodeid=3 now produces the same result as
starting it with
The 1024-character limit on the length of the connection
string is removed, and
--ndb-connectstring is now
handled in this regard in the same way as other
mysqld options.
In the NDB API, a new constructor for
Ndb_cluster_connection is
added which takes as its arguments a connection string and
the node ID to force the API node to use.
(Bug #44299)
NDB did not distinguish correctly between table names differing
only by lettercase when
lower_case_table_names was set
to 0.
(Bug #33158)
ndb_mgm -e "ALL STATUS" erroneously reported
that data nodes remained in start phase 0 until they had
actually started.
A buffer overrun in the handling of
DATE column values could cause
mysqlbinlog to fail when reading logs
containing certain combinations of DML statements on a table
having a
DATE column followed by
dropping the table.
(Bug #52202)
Cluster Replication:
Replication failed after a restart of the slave SQL node, due to
an error in writing the
master.info file.
(Bug #52859)
ALTER TABLE did not work
correctly where the name of the table, the database, or both
contained special characters, causing the MySQL server to crash.
(Bug #52225)
References: See also: Bug #53409, Bug #14959.
The performance of MySQL applications using non-persistent client connections was adversely affected due to many of these connections being kept waiting for an excessive length of time in cleanup phase while being closed. (Bug #48832)
The MySQL client library mishandled
EINPROGRESS errors for connections in
nonblocking mode. This could lead to replication failures on
hosts capable of resolving both IPv4 and IPv6 network addresses,
when trying to resolve
(Bug #37267)

Hermann von Helmholtz (1821-94)
The German scientist Hermann von Helmholtz made important discoveries in fields as diverse as physics and physiology. Applying his knowledge of physics to his medical research, Helmholtz showed that living beings obey the same physical laws as other objects. Some physiologists had believed that living bodies were special because they contained a 'vital force'. Helmholtz disproved the existence of this force.
Helmholtz was also important for medical research because he invented many new instruments to observe and measure the body, such as the ophthalmoscope. He used these instruments to investigate how the senses work - a question that fascinated him throughout his career. His research contributed, for example, to our understanding of how we see colour, and how we hear music.

SANDY, Utah – Real Salt Lake lost the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup Final on Tuesday night, giving up a goal late in the first half to fall 1-0 to D.C. United at Rio Tinto Stadium.
D.C. MF Lewis Neal scored the game's only goal in the 45th minute, picking up a loose ball in the left side of the box and slamming his first-time effort inside the far post from 10 yards out on the left side. RSL controlled the run of play, but couldn't turn its possession into a goal, hitting the woodwork twice to drop the club's first Open Cup Final.
Real Salt Lake looked good in the early minutes, putting D.C. on the back foot with some solid attacking movements. The Claret-and-Cobalt had its first real look at goal in the 27th minute. FW Joao Plata collected a MF Sebastian Velasquez ball in the right side of the area, turning and firing an effort just wide of the top-right-corner.
RSL had a couple of half chances in the 32nd and 39th minutes. Captain Kyle Beckerman had the first, letting a low shot loose from distance that D.C. GK Bill Hamid held comfortably. MF Javier Morales created the second opportunity, hitting a low cross into the box that bounced menacingly around the area before being cleared from danger. Several Real Salt Lake players appealed for a hand ball following the sequence, but referee Juan Guzman had none of it, allowing play to continue.
Neal put United ahead in the 45th. The play began with MF John Thorrington clipping a cross into the middle from the right side. RSL's attempted clearance didn't make it out of the area, allowing Neal to run onto it 10 yards out. He made no mistake with his chance, slamming his left-footed effort inside the far post with his first touch.
Real Salt Lake completely controlled the entire second 45, taking advantage of United's deep-lying tactics to dominate the run of play and create numerous chances.
MF Ned Grabavoy had RSL's first look of the second half in the 52nd minute, collecting a ball in space on the left side, dribbling towards the area and firing a curling 20-yarder that Hamid held.
RSL had one of its best looks at an equalizer in the 59th minute. Velasquez had the chance, slaloming through the center of D.C.'s defense before attempting to slip a teammate through on the left side. Velasquez's pass was deflected by a D.C. player, but the 22-year-old playmaker continued his run into the area, picking up the loose ball 10 yards out and ripping a shot off the crossbar on the left side.
RSL had a pair of half chances – and a Grabavoy head laceration – in the 71st and 76th minutes before getting denied by a huge Hamid save in the 81st. RSL headed a ball from the top of the box toward the right post, with Saborio latching onto it at the top-right-corner of the six. The Costa Rican striker looked like he had the equalizer with his first-time volley, but Hamid had other ideas, somehow getting a hand to the ball to keep it out.
RSL desperately searched for an equalizer in the game's final minutes, throwing massive numbers forward in an effort to force extra time. Grabavoy again came close in the 90th minute, collecting a brilliant through ball from substitute FW Devon Sandoval six yards from goal in the left side of the area before just losing out on his touch to Hamid.
D.C. nearly added a second in the 91st minute, when substitute FW Conor Doyle got free behind the RSL defense. Claret-and-Cobalt GK Nick Rimando came well out of the box to defend Doyle, fouling him 25 yards out to prevent a goal. Rimando was shown a yellow card for the foul.
RSL had two more chances before the final whistle. Sandoval had the first look, biking a clipped ball from RSL DF Nat Borchers on frame but – unfortunately – right at Hamid.
Saborio had the final look of the match, hitting the crossbar in the final minute of stoppage time. The Costa Rican striker got on the end of a bouncing ball at the top of the six, heading a shot toward the top-right-corner that reverberated off the crossbar and out of play.
Real Salt Lake will return to action this Saturday, when it will host Western Conference foe FC Dallas in a match rife with playoff implications at 7:00 p.m. MT at Rio Tinto Stadium.

Real Salt Lake Match Notes – RSL 0-1 DC
- D.C. United's win over Real Salt Lake hands them their third U.S. Open Cup title in their 18 year history, previously winning the trophy in 1996 and 2008.
- Despite Real Salt Lake maintaining the majority of possession (69.4%) and creating the majority of chances, D.C. United MF Lewis Neal was able to capitalize in the 45th minute, pouncing on a loose ball in the box. Neal's goal was D.C. United's only shot on target in the entire match. Neal trained with RSL during the 2012 preseason but was later signed by D.C. United.
- Real Salt Lake is now 8-9-1 all-time in Open Cup action, scoring 29 goals and conceding 31 in its 17 games in the tournament. The Claret-and-Cobalt met D.C. in the Open Cup once previously, losing 2-1 at United in the play-in rounds in the 2010 Open Cup.
- Real Salt Lake FW Devon Sandoval closed out the tournament with a team-leading three goals. FW Alvaro Saborio and FW Joao Plata ended with two goals and two assists a piece. MF Javier Morales notched one goal and three assists.
- Tuesday's match was RSL's first appearance in an Open Cup Final and the third home final in club history. The loss marks the third time RSL has lost a final at Rio Tinto Stadium, previously losing to the New York Red Bulls in the 2008 Western Conference Final and falling to Monterrey in the second leg of the 2010-2011 CONCACAF Champions League final.
- Real Salt Lake MF Luis Gil was not in tonight's 18 after undergoing an emergency appendectomy on Sunday.

So, What IS the Point?
by Sandy Lamparello
It happened again today:
"That must be so hard!"
"Well, actually it's not really, I guess I'm just used to it."
"Yeah, but when do you see him?"
"So what's the point?"
Then, later:
"When was the last time you saw him?"
"Did you cry when he left?"
"No, and I still haven't. I never cry about being separated from him."
"Then you must not really love him."
How many times do we have these conversations? How many times do we feel
like screaming and tearing our hair out?? I laughed at my sister a month
ago, when she told me she broke up with a guy because he "lived 1/2 hour
away and it was too hard to make plans to see him." Maybe that was cruel of
me. Not everyone is cut out to date a military man. Think about all the
"traditional" relationship things--togetherness, closeness, regular
contact, doing things together, dropping everything at a moment's notice to
go be with him or having him do that for you. Sure, we are close to our men
in heart and mind, but as for the rest of them, we don't have that. Sure, I
would drop everything, end this email right now, if my Marine called and
needed me. But if I needed him right now, he wouldn't be able to come here,
no matter how badly he would want to.
So, why, then?
Because there is only one person for each of us and if it's a military man
we can't say no?
Maybe.... Because we are gluttons for punishment??
Perhaps.... How wonderful would it be to be in their arms every night? But
how would any of us feel in the arms of someone who didn't stand for
anything? How excited do we all get when we know we are soon to see our men?
Personally, I never want that feeling to go away, no matter HOW long it's
been since I've seen him. I want to be old and grey and thrilled at the
prospect that he is coming inside from getting the paper off of the driveway.
It's that look in his eyes--the look we fight so hard to seal in our
memories, so we can bring it back during the tough times. It's knowing that I
sleep safe tonight because these men (and lots of women too) are willing to
give their lives for me. It's knowing that, no matter where in the world he
is, there is some point where he turns over at night and smiles at the
thought of my smile.
I would rather have one visit every 6 months, one phone call a week, one
chance to look in his eyes, than a lifetime spent with the wrong person by
my side 24/7. I always joke that my heart is in Beaufort or wherever he is,
but it's true. He takes that with him wherever he goes, and THAT is the
-- Sandy Lamparello

Richard Kelley started out his career as a fully accredited F1 photographer in 1972 at the United States Grand Prix. He quickly adopted his characteristic 'fly on the wall' style of photography – getting as close as he could to the moments, without influencing the emotion or drama of the moment. He witnessed and recorded hidden moments that became pivotal incidents in Grand Prix history.
Richard's images have sat unpublished for more than 30 years and we're proud to release these stunning limited edition prints for sale.
This photo captures James Hunt in a typical relaxed pose - as described by Richard:
"James Simon Wallis Hunt. Women loved him, men envied him, and corner marshals learned to keep him at arms length. Throughout his meteoric career, James lived life in a 65-second minute; devouring as much stimulation as possible, for in those days, tomorrow was never a certainty. With Penthouse Pet Victoria Johnson by his side, James personified the myth of the '70s F1 playboy in all its glory and pain."
The black & white photo is professionally printed and framed with a black frame and white mount and features a hand-written limited edition number.
The framed print measures 55cm x 75cm and is protected with museum-grade perspex 'artscreen' instead of glass - you won't be able to tell the difference when it's hanging on your wall.
Limited edition of 50 prints.

Spokeo.com, Privacy and the Triumph of Facts Over Truth
"You better look at this," she said.
This turned out to be the shiny new Spokeo site, the latest social media aggregator/data-mining webby that in all likelihood will move the needle on more blood pressure gauges than anything else.
Privacy advocates (disclosure: of which I am one) will see this as a threat to all that is sacred in the long twilight struggle against our entire lives being digitized and posted on the intertoobs. Meanwhile, many marketing analysts are no doubt licking their chops at the segmentation possibilities: "How fast can you make it searchable?!"
To the privacy advocates, it's important to note that Spokeo does have an opt-out utility. It's as clunky as the car I drove in college, but it's a start. That, in addition to the mantra I repeat to anybody who will listen:
When you're on a social media platform, you're in … wait for it … public.
Don't be surprised if somebody overhears what you say.
Meanwhile, to the data miners: Don't get too greedy just yet. The algorithm (whatever it is) that Spokeo uses to collect bits from social media sites and public records collects content. But the content it collects is completely devoid of context.
Try an experiment.
Plug in your own name. Then those of your friends, neighbors, relatives.
I, for one, learned that a guy I've known for 20 years as a hard-driving entrepreneur and a headbanger, actually enjoys easy listening music and spends his spare time quilting.
A hard-wired data miner can tell you that it doesn't matter what my friend enjoys; really, only what he buys. But if he buys a quilting pattern for Grandma once for Mother's Day, how likely a customer is he for your thread and needles?
Is Spokeo evil? No. It is what it is.
Is it a useful targeting tool for communicators?
Not yet.
A threat to your privacy?
Too early to tell.

Being a "Twilight" vampire's not easy on her love life, Ashley Greene told the October issue of Saturday Night Magazine.
The "Twilight Saga" star, who said she's not in a relationship, admitted she's not looking forward to having a boyfriend have to handle the spotlight.
VIEW THE PHOTOS: Behind-The-Scenes Glimpses Of 'New Moon'
"It's amazing that people are so intrigued by who I have lunch with and whatnot. This is my thing: If I was in a relationship with someone that I really cared about, it would upset me if they speculated something about me and someone else because that other person has to read it," Ashley said. "That's the part which I haven't encountered yet because I'm not in a relationship, but I'm just waiting for it — and then I'm sure I'll hate it."
But she said she's not worried about the fans hating on her future man.
VIEW THE PHOTOS: New Shots Of The Volturi And 'The Twilight Saga: New Moon' Scenes & Stars
"The fans embrace everything that we do, so if I started dating some guy they would probably embrace him too," she said. "It's something I have to get used to, I guess. It's all a part of this job. It's like the little fine print of dating me: 'You will now be thrown into this 'Twilight' whirlwind."
However, Ashley said her relationships with her co-stars have only grown stronger as the cast films the third movie in the series, "Eclipse."
"Kristen [Stewart] and I recently got closer," she said. "Kellan [Lutz] and I are very close," she said. "I have different relationships with different people, and it's really great, I kind of get the best of everything. Rachelle [Lefevre] and I have this, like, zest for life. She and I can just go and have a glass of wine and unwind, and we work out together and stuff like that, so she and I have that kind of relationship — I think we're both easygoing, fun people.

"Taylor's super, super sweet, and Jackson [Rathbone], I adore. I love them all," she added.
The next film in the series, "New Moon," hits theaters on November 20.

Hi i have
Vorm, Al-Habsi
Assou-Ekotto, Enrique, Shawcross, Evans, Simpson
Sessegnon, Sigurdsson, Dempsey, Allen, Pilkington
RVP, Roo, Agbonhlahor (bought to this week)
I have to catch two guys who are 36 and 42 points over me. Player behind me has 75 points to me.
I'm planning to:
- before gw35 replace Dempsey to Bale,
- before gw36 replace Sessegnon to Van der Vaart
- before gw37 replace Sigurdsson to Moses,
- before gw38 it depends how it will look.
What do u think about that? Do you have any advices to me what can i do better? I don't have wildcard and i'm thinking about using some transfer with -4 point, but I'm still don't sure.
Please, help me. Cheers. :)

I don't know how the team of your 2 opponents look like, but I wouldn't risk too many extra transfers. Saying that, if you invest in a good differential, you might be able to catch up in the last 5 game weeks.
My advice is to keep Dempsey and Sessegnon. Dempsey plays against Wigan and has a double game week the following week. He is a oop striker at the moment and in top form. Sessegnon is amazing since playing in left midfield (and he is very attack happy).
I would try to get Bale (easy DGW), Walcott (top form and good fixtures) or Cisse (DGW and top form)in.
If you need to find money to effort the changes I would change Enrique and Shawcross for Caulker (SWA), Taylor (Sun) and McAuley (WBA)and obviously Agbon for Cisse.
Let me know how you go on and good luck! ; )

One has RVP-Roo-Cisse-Valencia-Dempsey-Rosicky-Sigurdsson-Walcott
and second RVP-Suarez-Sturridge-BenArfa-Bale-Valencia-Ramires
Bale is of course replacement, but i have only 2,4 in the bank, and he can only be replaced by Demspey (9.3$). Your ideas is good, but I will have to use extra transfer and i'm not sure if it'll be cost that. ;) Only possibility with Bale, Vdv in for the double gameweek is that option which i wrote. Adebayor is just too cost.
Wildcard would be gift from God to me right now. :P
- April 12, 2012 at 11:23 AM
- Kash said...
So i clearly prefer Bale/Vdv for double gameweek than Demspey/Sessegnon (Demspey has two tought matches away - Everton+Liverpool)
- April 12, 2012 at 11:28 AM
- Tik said...
Your opponents have a very strong team and don't even need to make too many changes for the DGWs.
I can't tell you what team you should bring against them to get out the best result, but I would keep:
BAE, Evens, Simpson
Sessegon, Sigurdsson, Dempsey
RVP and Rooney
and try to fit in Bale/VDV, Walcott or Cisse (for GW36 after AV DGW).
I would only invest in 3 (Evans, Simpson and BAE) and try to keep the rest as cheap as possible to effort better players in midfield.
It's a bit of a gamble to decide between Bale/VDV and Dempsey and Sessegon. I wouldn't go in the double GW with 3 Tottenham players (Bale, VDV, BAE)instead of Dempsey, Sessegon and BAE. The later 3 are also very forward orientated players and in top form.
Where Bale and VDV struggled the last weeks... Even if they score some, they still have to contribute the points in between them.

Call me an old softie and a slob. I love Christmas. I love the whole month of December.
I love the scripture and hymns of Advent. I love the "stir up" prayers. (God knows, we need to get stirred up.) I love the candles. I love the concerts. The late service on Christmas Eve has always been one of my two favorite worship services of the whole year. (You didn't ask, but the answer is the sunrise service on Easter Day.) I love the Sundays after Christmas, with relatively small congregations and all the great carols we didn't get to sing on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. I love it all.
On the other hand, I do not love the commercial Christmas, the one that kicked off with Black Friday and Cyber Monday, even though the advertisements started to pop up as soon as the political advertisements stopped. I do not love the Christmas that is about "stuff:" getting it, giving it, accumulating it, searching for bargains on it, all that "stuff" stuff.
But then…here's where the slob in me comes out…theologians smack their foreheads when I say this…I also love "the other Christmas." You know the one. The one with Christmas trees and Christmas lights. The one with cookies and other goodies. The one with all Christmas music on the radio, all the time, beginning in mid-November. The one with Gene Autry and Mariah Carey and Andy Williams and Bing Crosby and the Bare-Naked Ladies singing about "An Elf's Lament." The one with TV movies about grouchy bosses catching a vision of what the future might hold for them and turning their lives around, leaving form critics genuflecting in the direction of Mr. Dickens. And TV movies about Santa saving the day, bringing romance to the lonely and hope to the downhearted. I might shake my head now and then, but I love it. Shucks, I even love Christmas sweaters.
So on some night not long before Christmas I will sit in front of the TV and pass from Advent to Christmas by watching David Letterman. Darleen Love will come on and sing "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)", and the joint will be rocking and artificial snow will fall from the sky and the band will be wailing and it will be time for Christmas. But hold on there…this is where we've been heading from the very beginning.
Darleen will be accompanied by Paul Schaeffer and his band, along with some string players: violinists, violists, maybe a cello or two. I always look at them and wonder. They were probably musical stars, phenoms, back in high school. They went to St. Olaf or Luther or Concordia or Augsburg or Gustavus or Augustana and were the concertmasters, the first chair players. Maybe they even went on to Julliard. They could see bright futures ahead, prestigious chairs in great symphony orchestras, touring opportunities. But things happen along the way, and there are only so many chairs in prestigious orchestras, only so many concertmasters. For right now they are reduced to playing back-up for Darleen Love on Letterman and having artificial snow dropped on their heads. God bless them. This is where their vocation has taken them.
And God bless the pastors and interns who had a vision years ago in which they saw themselves in lofty pulpits with hundreds of faces looking up at them as they expounded learned and eloquent sermons, not to mention those across the nation watching at home; and now find themselves trying to stir up a little excitement in some small urban or rural church where most of the faces are old, most of the paraments are tattered, and all of the offerings are below average. God bless you for sticking with it, for proclaiming the good news of Advent and Christmas where you are, even if where you are is not where you ever dreamed of being. This is where your vocation has taken you, and Christ is there with you.
You're going to be busy this month. That's a given. But it is a good busy-ness. Don't let it be an anchor on your enjoyment of Advent and Christmas!

HTC Universal Soft resetResetting Your Pocket PC Phone
Occasionally you may need to reset your Pocket PC Phone. A normal (or soft) reset of your device clears all active program memory and
shuts down all active programs. This can be useful when the device is running slower than normal, or a program is not performing properly. A
soft reset is also necessary after the installation of some programs. If a soft reset is performed when programs are running, unsaved work will
be lost.
You can also perform a hard reset (also known as a full reset). A hard reset should be performed only if a normal reset does not solve a
system problem. After a hard reset, the device is restored to its default settings—the way it was when you first purchased it and turned it
on. Any programs you installed, data you entered, and settings you customized on the device will be lost. Only Windows Mobile software
and other pre-installed programs will remain.
HTC Universal Soft resetTo perform a HTC Universal soft reset
• Use the stylus to lightly press and hold the RESET button on the left side of your device.
The device restarts and displays the Today screen.
Warning! Always turn off your device before performing a soft reset or installing/replacing the battery and SIM card.
HTC Universal hard resetTo perform a HTC Universal hard reset
• Press and hold both SOFT KEYS shown enclosed by circles in the picture below. Keep these keys pressed, and at the same time, use the stylus to lightly press and hold the RESET button on the left side of your device. Press either 0 to restore to factory default or X to exit the hard reset process.

One of the two aboriginal MPs in the Conservative cabinet has called on Chief Theresa Spence to abandon her fast aimed at securing a meeting with Prime Minister Stephen Harper.
Federal Health Minister Leona Aglukkaq joined other federal officials in asking Ms. Spence to accept a meeting with Aboriginal Affairs Minister John Duncan and end the campaign that has seen the chief go more than two weeks without solid food.
"I would encourage her to stop and meet with Minister Duncan and that's the best way to address her issues," Ms. Aglukkaq said Friday.
Mr. Duncan is the one responsible for the portfolio and that's why he's the right person to meet, Ms. Aglukkaq said.
Ms. Spence rejected Ms. Aglukkaq's recommendation because she believes Mr. Duncan isn't the one who should be speaking on a nation-to-nation basis.
"When our ancestors made treaties with the British Crown to allow the Queen's subjects to live in our territories, it was for as long as the sun shines, the waters flow and the grass grows," Ms. Spence said in a statement.
"The Crown's only legal access to our lands is contingent upon the fulfillment of the promises make in the negotiations of treaty."
Ms. Spence, who is the chief of a remote reserve in Northern Ontario, stopped eating solid food on Dec. 11 in an effort to secure a meeting between First Nations leaders, the prime minister and Governor General over the treaty relationship.
Mr. Duncan has offered several times to speak with her and to form a working group, but the minister has been rebuffed at every turn.
The government points to a meeting it held last January with First Nations leaders as proof it is serious about improving the relationship and note they have spent millions on aboriginal health, housing and education.
But aboriginal leaders say they are being left out of the discussion the Harper government is having about how best to develop Canada's lucrative natural resources.
A series of protests over the last two weeks under the banner of Idle No More were in part spurred by the recent budget bill which removed federal oversight over waterways without consulting aboriginal groups who depend on them for water and food.
Meanwhile, bands are concerned that a lack of training and education will see them shut out of resource development projects that could provide economic stimulus to many struggling communities.
In the statement released Friday, Ms. Spence said she remains hopeful that Mr. Harper or Governor General David Johnston will accept her request.
"Canada is considered a first world country and our peoples are living in extreme poverty and substandard living conditions," she said.
"As Nations, we held up our end of the treaty, yet Canada continues to only pay lip service to our relationship."
Ms. Spence has taken up residence on an island in the Ottawa River considered by the Anishinabe as traditional territory.
Since she began her fast, she's ingested only soup, tea and water while welcoming a steady stream of visitors.
Liberal MP and leadership hopeful Justin Trudeau stopped in earlier this week, as did aboriginal actor Adam Beach. NDP MP Charlie Angus was expected to drop by later Friday.
Mr. Angus helped catapult the situation on Ms. Spence's reserve of Attawapiskat into the international spotlight last year when he wrote about the dire economic and social conditions it faced.
At least one Conservatives has visited the island in the hopes of seeing Ms. Spence but was turned away. Tory Senator Patrick Brazeau attempted to meet Ms. Spence earlier this week.
Mr. Duncan has expressed disappointment that Ms. Spence will meet with other politicians and not with him, telling her he is concerned about her health.
He is not alone.
A B.C. First Nation's leader said Friday that Ms. Spence's point has been made.
"When you look at what she is really standing for there are a number issues that are near and dear to many First Nations across Canada that I don't think are going to go away in the distant future," Tk'emlups Chief Shane Gottfriedson told CHNL radio in Kamloops, B.C.
"So I think developing a dialogue with Canada is the next step."
Green Party Leader Elizabeth May went on a 17-day hunger strike of her own outside Parliament Hill in 2002 demanding families be moved away from the Cape Breton tar ponds.
Her strike ended when the government agreed to act.
In a blog post Friday, Ms. May wrote that Ms. Spence's cause cries out for leadership.
"Ending her hunger strike is only the first step," Ms. May said.
"Once that is done, we need a meaningful engagement on the wide range of critical issues being raised from coast to coast to coast. For that we need leadership, and right now, that leadership is coming from flash-mobs of drummers and blockaders, aboriginal women and youth. It is coming from Chief Spence. Can we not hope that leadership might come from 24 Sussex Drive in response?"

A good judge maintains order and respect amid the chaos, from the smallest drug possession crime to capital murder cases. But beyond running a courtroom, judges also have an important role to play in reducing jail overcrowding and preventing recidivism, distinguishing between criminals we need to punish and ones we need to help.
It takes experience, education and wisdom to strike the right balance in the courtroom. The Houston Chronicle endorses the following candidates in races for Criminal District Courts.
174th Criminal District Court: With 20 years of legal experience, Rice University graduate Robert Summerlin has the balance of experience and energy needed on the bench. Summerlin, a Republican, has worked as a prosecutor and defense attorney, often representing indigent clients. His focus on a quicker docket and conviction that bonds should not be used as punishment are a healthy direction forward for the 174th.
176th Criminal District Court: Since her election to the bench in 2008, Democratic Judge Shawna Rea-gin has applied important caseflow management techniques that have reduced her docket. She has also used intervention programs to provide intensive supervision of probationers who need help staying on track. Smart choices like these mean a better run courthouse and better use of taxpayer dollars. Voters, take note.
177th Criminal District Court: Appointed by the governor to replace the resigning Kevin Fine, Judge Ryan Patrick is a young Republican who voters should keep in black robes. Rising quickly through the ranks as a prosecutor, Patrick worked within the special prosecutions bureau, where his work going after drunk drivers was recognized by Mothers Against Drunk Driving. He also worked in the major offenders division, where he handled mass narcotics trafficking and doctor shopping. Though young, Patrick has impressive experience that should serve him well on the bench.
178th Criminal District Court: In a race between two thoughtful, qualified candidates, we endorse incumbent Judge David Mendoza. This Democrat takes a smart approach to the judicial system, focusing on 18- to 25-year-old criminals and punishments that make sense. Before being elected in 2008, Mendoza worked in private practice and also had served for eight years as judge of Harris County Court at Law No. 8. His Republican opponent Roger Bridgewater has deep roots in the courts, having worked as clerk, coordinator, prosecutor and defense attorney, and addresses the justice system with a thoughtful, philosophical attitude in his own right. But in this close match, we endorse Judge Mendoza.
179th Criminal District Court: Judge Randy Roll works hard, putting in long hours, skipping lunches and even vacations to get the job done. And it pays off, with his court's docket cut in half over his four-year term. In a diverse city like Houston, this multilingual Democrat - he speaks Spanish, Russian, German and French - is an especially important asset to an efficient and effective courthouse. His Republican opponent Kristin Guiney is extremely well qualified, and we hope that she stays involved in judicial politics. But in this race between two top candidates we endorse Judge Roll.
337th Criminal District Court: A no nonsense candidate, Renee Magee has a depth and breadth of experience in the District Attorney's office that makes her the right choice for this race. A former Olympian (she was on the 1976 USA swimming team), Magee has 20 years' experience as a prosecutor, including serving as a felony chief in several courts, and for the past five years she has worked in the special crimes division. With a solid judicial temperament, Republican Renee Magee deserves voters' support on Election Day.
338th Criminal District Court: While some candidates challenge the accuracy of the Houston Bar Association judicial qualification poll, it is hard to ignore that Republican candidate Brock Thomas received more "well qualified" votes than any other candidate for criminal district court. When he was judge of the 338th, before losing in the 2008 Democratic sweep, Brock took initiative to start a third docket for the STAR drug court, recognizing how the judicial system can make a positive impact not just for civil society, but criminals, as well. As he puts it, the judicial system can help make accused criminals moms and dads again. Harris County voters should make Brock Thomas judge again.
339th Criminal District Court: Judge Maria T. Jackson has the sort of tough but fair disposition that makes for a good judge. She has implemented stringent DWI procedures that have since been adopted by other courts, but also recounts stories of thank you notes from offenders set straight when she put them on probation or through a drug court instead of prison. With experience at the National Computer Forensics Institute - important background in an increasingly cyber world - and five years as judge in the municipal courts before being elected to her current bench, this Democrat is the right choice.
351st Criminal District Court: Republican Mark Ellis was the rare survivor of the Democratic sweep of the criminal court bench in 2008, and voters should keep him in office for the next term as well. Having served as judge for 16 years, Ellis has a moderate and thoughtful outlook, meditative on the nuances and subtleties of our justice system. He has been deeply involved with mental health and intervention programs, and shows a dedication to improving not only the judicial system, but himself as a judge. Judge Ellis works with purpose, one that Harris County voters should be proud to see in their courtrooms.

MILAN, Italy, Nov. 9 (UPI) -- Three women testified in an Italian court that money they received from former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi wasn't payment for sex.
Prosecutors allege Berlusconi, 76, had sex with as many as 33 prostitutes at his northern Italian villa over the course of several months, ANSA News Agency reported Friday.
One of the women who participated in Berlusconi's alleged sex parties said he gave her 2,000 euros a month but the money was to help her pay her bills, not because she had sex with him. Another woman said she got a similar 2,500-euro-per-month bank transfer from the wealthy former businessman.
A broadcaster on Berlusconi's television network said the money she received -- also 2,500 euros per month -- went toward a down payment and mortgage payments on a house.
The trial centers on an underage Moroccan belly dancer whom prosecutors contend was a prostitute Berlusconi paid for sex -- a charge the former premier denies.
Berlusconi was convicted in October of tax evasion and sentenced to three years in prison but that conviction remains on appeal and likely will for some time, ANSA said.

Texas abortion bill falls
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Hundreds of jeering protesters helped stop Texas lawmakers from passing one of the toughest abortion measures in the country, shouting down Senate Republicans and forcing them to miss a midnight deadline to pass the bill.
Initially, Republicans insisted they had started voting before the midnight deadline and passed the bill that Democrats spent much of Tuesday filibustering. But after official computer records and printouts of the voting record showed the vote took place on Wednesday, and then were changed to read Tuesday, senators convened for a private meeting.
Story Continued Below
An hour later, Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst was still insisting the 19-10 vote was in time, but said, "with all the ruckus and noise going on, I couldn't sign the bill."
( Also on POLITICO: Texas filibuster nets national attention)
He denounced the more than 400 protesters who staged what they called "a people's filibuster" from 11:45 p.m. to well past midnight. He denied mishandling the debate.
"I didn't lose control (of the chamber). We had an unruly mob," Dewhurst said. He then hinted that Gov. Rick Perry may immediately call another special session, adding: "It's over. It's been fun. But see you soon."
Sen. Wendy Davis, D-Fort Worth, spent most of the day staging an old-fashioned filibuster, attracting wide support, including a mention from President Barack Obama's campaign Twitter account. Her Twitter following went from 1,200 in the morning to more than 20,000 by Tuesday night.
( Also on POLITICO: Obama tweets: #StandWithWendy)
"My back hurts. I don't have a lot of words left," Davis said when it was over and she was showered with cheers by activist who stayed at the Capitol to see her. "It shows the determination and spirit of Texas women."
Davis' mission, however, was cut short.
Rules stipulated she remain standing, not lean on her desk or take any breaks — even for meals or to use the bathroom. But she also was required to stay on topic, and Republicans pointed out a mistake and later protested again when another lawmaker helped her with a back brace.
( Also on POLITICO: What to know: Texas-sized filibuster)
Republican Sen. Donna Campbell called the third point of order because of Davis' remarks about a previous law concerning sonograms. Under the rules, lawmakers can vote to end a filibuster after three sustained points of order.
After much back and forth, the GOP voted to end the filibuster minutes before midnight, sparking the raucous response from protesters. As the demonstrators thundered, Campbell urged Senate security to "Get them out! Time is running out. I want them out of here!"

The program focuses on the stewardship and restoration of coastal, wetland and riparian ecosystems across the country. Its goal is to meet the conservation needs of important species and habitats, providing measurable and meaningful conservation and educational outcomes. The program requires the establishment and/or enhancement of diverse partnerships and an education/outreach component that will help shape and sustain behavior to achieve conservation goals.
Funding priorities for this program include:
To date, the Foundation has funded over 800 projects in 50 states, including the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands, through this program. More than $18 million in grants has leveraged more than $67 million in other funds or donated services.
Major funding for this project is provided by NFWF's partnerships with EPA, the US Forest Service, the US Fish and Wildlife Service, Southern Company, FedEx and Shell.

Committee Opinion Number 205, August 1998
Tubal ligation at the time of cesarean delivery requires significant additional physician work even though the technical work of the procedure is brief. Informed consent by the patient requires considerably more counseling by the physician regarding potential risks and benefits of this procedure than is necessary with alternative means of sterilization and contraception. Also, many states require completion of special informed consent documents in addition to the customary consent forms required by hospitals. These forms must be completed before scheduling the procedure.

ST. LOUIS (AP) Rookie Vladimir Tarasenko scored twice in his NHL debut and Chris Stewart also had a pair of goals to help the St. Louis Blues manhandle the Detroit Red Wings 6-0 in their season opener Saturday night.
Coach Ken Hitchcock, general manager Doug Armstrong and goalies Jaroslav Halak and Brian Elliott posed at center ice with postseason trophies earned from last season's Central Division championship team shortly before the opening faceoff. A standing room crowd of 20,035 roared throughout the opener.
There was a moment of silence in tribute to Hall of Fame baseball player Stan Musial before the third period.
The 21-year-old Tarasenko, a first-round draft pick in 2010, got the scoring started with some nifty puck handling on a breakaway at 6:36 of the first period. He made it 3-0 in the second period with a power-play goal, becoming the 14th player in franchise history to get a pair of goals in his first game.
Halak had to stop just 14 shots by the anemic Red Wings for the shutout. Halak and Brian Elliott combined for a league-leading 15 shutouts last season, sharing the Jennings Trophy.
Red Wings goalie Jimmy Howard was pulled after Stewart's power-play goal at 1:15 of the third.

A new study out today from The Children's Partnership finds the website used by the State of California to provide information about dentists for children was often inaccurate. For example, the non-profit group found many of the dentists listed do not treat or provide certain services to children. Several offices were incorrectly listed as having Spanish-speaking staff.
Jenny Kattlove with The Children's Partnership says it's important to resolve these problems now before federal healthcare reform is in place.
"More than half of all children in California will be enrolled in Medi-Cal by the end of this year," she said.
More than five million children are expected to be enrolled by the end of 2013.
Kattlove admits the study was small. Her group only spoke to 145 dental providers. But she says this was meant to identify some families' experiences and to spur more research.

A Manhattan grand jury is hearing evidence against Pedro Hernandez in the 1979 disappearance of Etan Patz, NBC 4 New York has learned.
A decision is expected by Thursday whether suspect Hernandez will be indicted on kidnapping and murder charges.
Police have said Hernandez confessed in May to attacking Etan. They said he admitted to grabbing the 6-year-old off the street and killing him in the basement of a SoHo bodega where he had been working. The body was then allegedly left in a trash bag out on the street and decades later, has never been found.
It was 33 years ago when Patz disappeared as he walked alone for the first time to get his school bus.
Developments in the case have made headlines across the globe for decades as police tried to rule in or rule out possible suspects.
Defense lawyers have said Hernandez has a history of mental illness and his confession is unreliable. Hernandez's attorney, Harvey Fishbein, declined to comment to NBC 4 New York Tuesday about news a grand jury had started hearing meeting.
A spokeswoman for Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance also declined comment.
After his arrest in Camden County, N.J., Hernandez was held at the Bellevue Psychiatric Center but was later moved to Rikers Island after receiving medication.
A court hearing is scheduled for Thursday at 100 Centre St. where prosecutors are expected to announce any possible charges handed up by the grand jury.
Last week, one-time lead suspect Jose Ramos was released from a Pennsylvania prison on unrelated child sex crime offenses. He was immediately arrested on a Meghan's law violation for allegedly not correctly listing an address where he would be living after his release.
Patz's family continues to live in Soho have not commented on the arrest of Hernandez.

Since I first clapped eyes on Benefit High Beam at the tender age of 15 I've been hooked on the brand; not only because of its high quality products, but also because of its kitsch packaging. The products themselves are undeniably lovely, but if it weren't for the retro design I doubt I'd be as inclined as I consistently have been over the past ten years to purchase Benefit products.
Since Benefit Cosmetics first emerged, I think they've sparked something of a vintage revival in the beauty industry. Such has been the selling power of Benefit's trademark packaging that many other brands have followed suit; Soap & Glory being an obvious example, and also MAC Cosmetics' recent Marilyn Monroe range and NARS' Andy Warhol collection.
So why are cosmetic companies cashing in on this old-school style, and why do customers lap it up so eagerly? Well, from a personal point of view, I think the type of imagery used by Benefit captures a kind of innocent yet sophisticated glamour which no longer exists; a beauty ideal which dominated the 50s and 60s but which has since been oversexed and adapted to fit in with the TOWIE-tainted days of the 21st century.
I also think Benefit appeals to women because it's cheery rather than intimidating, and pretty without being depressing. To me, a cartoon of a beautiful flawless female is somehow far less daunting than an image of a stunning airbrushed celebrity. Admittedly both are as unrealistic and unattainable as eachother, but at least with the former you know the image isn't real – plus it looks far more fun!
Mostly though, Benefit packaging is simply more interesting (and seemingly more positive) than many of its competitors. From the tongue in cheek "punny" slogans to the varying antiquated typeface, everything about the brand's retro-style transforms makeup into what it should be; namely, good old fashioned fun!
Yesterfacts: Benefit Cosmetics was founded in 1976 by twins Jean and Jane Ford. Benefit was initially founded as a beauty boutique which specialized in quick-fix products for beauty dilemmas. Benefit Cosmetics is now a global brand selling at over 2,000 counters in more than 30 countries. Nice work, Jean and Jane. As the saying goes, two heads are better than one!
