Assign default fields dynamically
This feature lets you dynamically assign default fields, also known as "metadata", to events as they are being consumed by Splunk software. Use this feature to specify source type, host, or source dynamically for incoming data. This feature is useful mainly with scripted data -- either a scripted input or an existing file processed by a script.
Do not use dynamic metadata assignment with file monitoring (tail) inputs. For more information about file inputs, see Monitor files and directories in this manual.
Note: The modular inputs feature has superseded this
***SPLUNK*** header feature. If you need dynamically-generated values for host, source and sourcetype, consider writing a modular input.
To use this feature, you append a single dynamic input header to your file and specify the metadata fields you want to assign values to. The available metadata fields are sourcetype, host, and source.
You can use this method to assign metadata instead of editing inputs.conf, props.conf, and transforms.conf.
Configure a single input file
To use this feature for an existing input file, edit the file (either manually or with a script) to add a single input header:
***SPLUNK*** <metadata field>=<string> <metadata field>=<string> ...
1. Set
<metadata field>=<string> to a valid metadata/value pair. You can specify multiple pairs. For example,
sourcetype=log4j host=swan.
2. Add the single header anywhere in your file. Any data following the header will be appended with the attributes and values you assign until the end of the file is reached.
3. Add your file to
$SPLUNK_HOME/var/spool/splunk or any other directory being monitored by Splunk.
Configure with a script
In the more common scenario, you write a script to dynamically add an input header to your incoming data stream. Your script can also set the header dynamically based on the contents of the input file.

Re (again):
> The modular inputs feature has superseded this ***SPLUNK*** header feature
Do you plan to (a) keep or (b) remove this ***SPLUNK*** header feature in future Splunk releases?
(I wanted to ask this question in my previous comment, but hit the 1000-character limit.)
I'd like to know because I'm considering suggesting to colleagues that we use this feature; your use of the word "superseded" prompts me to check with you.
Perhaps, if you answer (a), and what I am suggesting is true: replace "has superseded" with "offers more flexibility than" (or "is more flexible than")?
> The modular inputs feature has superseded this ***SPLUNK*** header
Supersedes, in all cases?
In my case, I use a remote application to send event data to a raw Splunk TCP port. The application sends various source types. Rather than requiring the application to send each source type to a different TCP port, and assign the sourcetype field value per port, I want to retain the flexibility that Splunk offers to assign metadata in other ways: per event via a transform, or per stream via a header. (I can't precisely predict all other use cases of this application or the preferences of other users.)
Writing a modular input to assign metadata field values seems like more work than inserting a header, or even writing a regex-based transform (although I've already hit the limit of those C-library PCRE transforms due to the lack of case conversion). Especially when my app can easily insert that header line. IdeaIly, a function that supersedes another should make the same task easier.

This change represents the ninth consecutive month of year-over-year price gains and the largest increase since May 2006. Distressed sales excluded, home prices jumped 6.7% from last year in November 2012.
According to CoreLogic's HPI report, all but six states experienced annual price gains in November: Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island.
Conversely, the five states with the highest home price appreciation are Arizona, Nevada, Idaho, North Dakota and California.
"For the first time in almost six years, most U.S. markets experienced sustained increases in home prices in 2012," said Anand Nallathambi, president and CEO of CoreLogic. "We still have a long way to go to return to 2005-2006 levels, but all signals currently point to a progressive stabilization of the housing market and the positive trend in home price appreciation to continue into 2013."
Home prices, including distressed sales, in December 2012 are expected to rise by 7.9% compared to the previous December, according to the CoreLogic Pending HPI. Without distressed sales, December 2012 house prices could potentially increase by 8.4% year-over-year.
"As we close out 2012 the pending index suggests prices will remain strong," said Mark Fleming, chief economist for CoreLogic. "Given that the recently released Qualified Mortgage rules issued by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau are not expected to significantly restrict credit availability relative to today, the gains made in 2012 will likely be sustained into 2013."

Action brought on 16 April 2019 — European Commission v Republic of Slovenia
(Case C-316/19)
Language of the case: Slovenian
Applicant: European Commission (represented by: L. Flynn and B. Rous Demiri)
Defendant: Republic of Slovenia
Form of order sought
Pursuant to Article 258 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, the Commission asks the Court of Justice to declare that, by unilaterally seizing from the premises of the Bank of Slovenia documents connected to the performance of the ESCB's and the Eurosystem's tasks and by unfairly cooperating with the ECB on that subject, the Republic of Slovenia has failed to fulfil its obligations under Article 343 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, Article 39 of Protocol No 4 on the Statute of the European System of Central Banks and of the European Central Bank, Articles 2, 18 and 22 of Protocol No 7 on the Privileges and Immunities of the European Union and Article 4(3) of the Treaty on European Union.
The Commission also asks the Court to order the Republic of Slovenia to pay the costs.
Pleas in law and main arguments
The search and seizure at the premises of the Bank of Slovenia on 6 July 2016 undermined the privileges attaching to the archives of the Union, as provided for in Article 343 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, Article 39 of Protocol No 4 and Articles 2 and 22 of Protocol No 7, in conjunction with Article 18 of the latter protocol, and as provided for in Article 4(3) of the Treaty on European Union. The search and seizure were carried out unilaterally, without the ECB's consent, and, on the assumption of a disagreement between the ECB and the Slovene bodies, without a decision of the Court of Justice of the European Union. Despite repeated warnings, the Slovene bodies responsible for the seizure did not attempt to separate documents forming part of the archives of the Union and did not constructively discuss the matter with the ECB.

Cal Dodd, birth name Cathal J. Dodd, is a Canadian singer and voice actor. Dodd occasionally provided character vocals on Fraggle Rock, including one of the Doozers singing "Rev" in the second season episode "Doozer Is as Doozer Does."
Dodd can be seen at the recording session for the episode, in home movie footage taken by Steve Whitmire and included in the Fraggle Rock: Complete Second Season DVD extras. Whitmire recalled the singer's contributions: "We had Cal there, who was one of our singers who would come in and sing with us. Wasn't a puppeteer... [with] this incredible baritone bass voice."
A noted commercial jingle singer, Dodd appeared on-camera as the host of the CTV variety series Circus from 1978 until 1983, and hosted the Miss Teen Canada pageant. An active voice-actor, he's been heard in many series and video games recorded in Toronto, perhaps most notably as the voice of the Marvel Comics hero Wolverine in the animated X-Men series (1992-1997), a guest spot on Spider-Man, and in several Capcom video games. Other voice credits include Slappy the dummy in several Goosebumps episodes and parts in the Nelvana series Bob and Margaret, Little Bear, and Rescue Heroes.

Though we'll see Ben Stiller and Jonah Hill team up for next month's sci-fi comedy The Watch, the duo is already planning another project together. THR reports that Stiller and Hill are attached to star in the comedy pitch Aloha, with Night at the Museum director Shawn Levy set to helm. Plot details are under wraps, but the story is described as an island-set comedy. Hill hatched the idea for the project himself, which was then further fleshed out by Hill, Stiller, and Levy on the set of The Watch (which Levy produced). Hit the jump for more details.
Per THR, Get Him to the Greek and The Muppets co-writer Nicholas Stoller is in talks to pen the script for 20th Century Fox, with Stiller, Hill, and Levy all acting as producers on the film. Though all three creatives are currently attached to Aloha, their final involvement will depend on scheduling and Stoller's script. Hill is next set to star in Martin Scorsese's The Wolf of Wall Street, and he's also poised to return for the much-welcomed 21 Jump Street sequel. Stiller, meanwhile, just recently began post-production on his next directorial feature, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty.
As for Levy, he's got a bounty of projects in the pipeline at the moment. He's currently filming the Vince Vaughn/Owen Wilson comedy The Internship, but there are a number of things he's considering for his follow-up. Before committing to The Internship, Levy's two priority projects seemed to be Fantastic Voyage and Frankenstein. Depending on how the development of those two films has progressed, he could ostensibly tackle one of those larger films after he finishes his comedy.
Lost co-showrunner Carlton Cuse has been writing a secretive project for Levy to direct with Hugh Jackman in the lead that could also move forward soon, and there's also a sequel to Real Steel that may or may not come to fruition. Moreover, the director just recently became attached to direct an adaptation of the kids series The 39 Clues for DreamWorks, so as you can see he's got a lot to sift through.

There are simply not enough good shooters on the PSP, and with the release of Call to Duty: Roads to Victory, there are still not enough good shooters on the PSP. What makes Call of Duty: Roads to Victory so dismal is that it's just a mere shadow of the console version of Call of Duty 3. It's as if the developers believe that rabid PSP owners are in such a tizzy for first-person shooter games that they will be willing to overlook a few shortcomings. Unfortunately, those few shortcomings are serious enough to ruin any potential this game had to be fun. Allow me to explain.
First of all, even if this game were great, it's too short. You would not be getting your money's worth. An average gamer will be able to get through all 14 levels in less than a day. There are some standard multiplayer modes that are of the deathmatch, capture the flag, and king of the hill variety. Up to six players can participate, but there are no online modes. You can only access these games via the ad hoc wireless system. And you can't share games. Good luck finding five other gamers with a copy of this turkey shoot.
WWII games are the new millenium's equivalent of those old spaghetti westerns from the 50s. There are just so damn many of them, and there doesn't seem to be any end in sight. This is the war that wouldn't die. But with so much competition, you would expect a series with such a good pedigree as this one to be among one of the finest offered. Sure, the console versions are great, but this PSP version seems like it was thrown together from leftover segments of the console series. The story fails to generate any excitement. A black and white newsreel is shown before each mission to set the tone. The only tone that it sets is that I'm in some old movie theater in the 40s waiting for Abbot and Costello Meet Frankenstein. There isn't enough personality injected into the storyline to make me feel as though I'm actually taking part in the war.
Only when you complete one of the linear levels will the game save your progress. Not so great for a portable system such as the PSP. Not only can't you save anywhere in the middle of a level, but occasionally the game will crash and you'll be forced to start the level over. Great way to extend the replay value, boys. Another bone of contention is the artificial un-intelligence. The enemy will often let you get so close to them that you could kill them with their own weapons. Even when you can't get in close range, they will often just stand around and let you pick them off as though they were the zombies from Night of the Living Dead. But they have respawning on their side and as soon as you chop one down, another clone will appear to take his place.
Aiming is a mixed bag. For the most part, the lock-on system works well. It's forgiving, but I'm not. There are times when it gets stuck between being too close to fire a weapon and using hand-to-hand combat. In these moments, you're never to sure if you're going to fire on some Nazi at point blank range or butt him in the head with your rifle. Sometimes the controls fail to acknowledge a command and will leave you exposed to a hit. Not that this will be anything new to you because dying is a way of life in this game. The A.I. will be taking pot shots at you from offscreen, and they can be deadly accurate. In these instances, there's nothing you can do about it if you don't see it coming. Firing back is literally like taking a shot in the dark.
Roads to Victory is not all doom and gloom. There are some shining moments to be sure. There are a decent amount of missions, many of which are varied. But they soon become redundant from sheer repetitiveness. It seems as though the moment you start enjoying a particular level, the game senses that you enjoy it and attempts to please you by presenting the same scenario over and over. You'll even see many of the same backgrounds of the burned out ruins reused over and over. At times, I'm reminded of being on a treadmill in a Hanna-Barbera cartoon.
There are a number of different ways to configure the control system, but none of them are perfect. Regardless of which one you choose, you're still going to end up with some buttons that perform double duty, and in some instances, not issue a command at all. On the standard format, the stick controls your movement while the D-pad allows you to change weapons, throw grenades, or crouch down. The precision of the D-pad ensures you won't press the wrong command unintentionally, as you will be likely to if you map these commands to the stick or face buttons.
Aside from killing all of the Nazi clones in sight, the missions include recon, recovery, escort, capturing strongholds, planting bombs, blasting tanks with your rocket launcher, parachuting, and manning turrets while on a bombing mission. As I mentioned, these missions are nicely varied, but they quickly degenerate into a make-work situations that are all too predictable and formulaic. The only real excitement that the game generates is when your life is in immediate danger. And that's only because you'll be threatened with the prospect of having to spend more time playing it.

Gah! A '69 Camaro! Don't worry, this one is big-block cool.
Cool green! Cool Camaro! Cool, it's a big-block! We'll flick by a zillion Camaros in our magazine half-life without being able to remember whether they were red or orange. Then a bright-green, anatomically correct '69 comes along that makes us remember why everyone likes to build '69 Camaros. To add candy to the ice cream, this car has a 540 that makes it want to go 10s.
The owner, Brian Fiers, is also the builder, having assembled and painted most of the car in his garage during the long, dark Wisconsin winters. As usual, his dad, Larry, was the one who got him hooked. Thanks, Dad.
At the ripe old age of 16, Brian learned the ropes when he purchased an '89 RS Camaro with a V-6 that was a little too slow for anyone's tastes. That engine was swapped for a 355-inch small-block that got him through his teens. Eventually, Brian became interested in Chevy big-blocks, and since he had always wanted a '69 Camaro, he decided to look for a matching pair.
While he was looking, someone contacted him offering a wrecked '69 with a title lien. The car was originally a base model with a blue-on-blue paint scheme. Someone had painted the car green with white stripes and swapped in a 350-inch engine and a TH350 transmission from a '77 Camaro before stuffing the car's frontend into an immovable object. It was perfect. "I drove it back from Oklahoma with no grille and other various missing pieces and it was blowing oil all over the place," says Brian. "The floats were sunk in the carb and the car would struggle to make it up hills at more than 45 mph."
By that time, Brian already had the 454 core purchased, but he started on the body damage first to get the car looking complete. The paint from the cowl back was in good shape, so he replaced the grille, front bumper, and front spoiler with new parts and painted them to match the rest of the car.
He managed to sneak out on the road a couple of times during that summer and then garaged it for the winter build. First he added frame support parts to get the car ready for the big-block swap that was coming up. He also installed a set of 3.90:1 gears to replace the 2.41:1s that were a '77 Camaro-only option that came over in the original transplant. "It was weird," says Brian. "I couldn't believe the pinion it had in there. It was huge."
Brian scrounged an older Tremec TKO five-speed with a 3.27:1 First gear rated at 525-ish horsepower from a friend. He set the block in with one head to fit the exhaust and mocked up the crossmember and driveshaft. Then he pulled the engine back out and assembled it with a cast crank, forged Speed Pro pistons, a Comp flat-tappet hydraulic cam, a set of Edelbrock oval-port heads, and an RPM Air Gap with an 850 Speed Demon carb. It was a pretty average engine build.
The next summer Brian knocked the main bearings out of the engine and destroyed the crank. Since he was into the short-block anyway, he added a steel crank and hydraulic flat-tappet cam, only to knock the mains out again. The engine was rebuilt one more time with a solid flat-tappet cam to go drag racing. That combo produced a 12.00 at 117 mph only to spin a rod at the top end. Eventually the car went into the 11s with a solid roller, but Brian found more bearing wear when the pan was off. Out of frustration he pulled the block out, set it aside, and decided to build a 540-incher.
The 540 was pieced together from Summit and Jegs using all-new pieces. The block was from Bill Mitchell's Hardcore Racing Products, and the rotator was balanced by BK Engines in Buffalo, Wisconsin, and assembled by Brian in his garage. The first time out, the car went 10.97 at 126 mph. "The 60-foot times were all over the place at that point," says Brian. "I got them into the high 1.50s, then went 10.62 at 130 using a pair of slicks, Moog springs, and a set of CalTracs bars."
The car is driven on the street primarily, but it's also raced a lot. "I'd like it to be good at both, but it's a compromise," says Brian. "It goes to car shows 150 miles one way, and it cruises at 75 mph at 2,400 rpm." Is he satisfied with 10-second quarters and driveability on the street? "I want it to go faster," he says.
Tech Notes
Who: Brian Fiers
What: '69 Chevy Camaro
Where: Onalaska, Wisconsin. Brrrrr! Cold!
Engine: The block is an iron Merlin II with a 4.5-inch bore. Brian added a set of 6.385-inch Eagle H-beam rods and a Scat 4340 crank with a 4.25-inch stroke for 540 inches. The cam is a Comp solid roller with 254/260 degrees of lift at 0.050 and 0.660/0.666-inch lift.
Heads: The heads are Pro Topline (now RHS) 320s with polished combustion chambers.
Induction: The intake is a rectangle-port Edelbrock Victor Jr. with a BG Speed Demon 850-cfm carb with down-leg boosters. This combo made 525 hp and 525 lb-ft at the wheels during the '07 Car Craft Nationals.
Exhaust: Hooker made the Competition headers with 2-inch primaries. Brian made the 3-inch tubes and welded them to a set of Flowmaster 40-series Delta Flow mufflers.
Ignition: The 540 uses the standard MSD Pro Billet distributor with an MSD 6AL box, Super Conductor wires, and a Blaster II coil.
Swap: To switch a small-block to a big-block, you need to change the frame mounts on the crossmember and corresponding engine mounts. Brian's are from Energy Suspension. He also changed the heater core so the valve covers don't hit the hoses and added a big-block radiator and fan shroud. The master cylinder booster was changed to a smaller one to clear.
Transmission: To go from a TH350 to a Tremec, Brian had to drill and tap the hole for the Z-bar linkage that he scored at a swap meet. The crossmember was moved back an inch or so, and the mounting pad had to be cut and rewelded.
Rearend: Originally the rearend had an 8.5-inch 10-bolt. Brian planned on running 10-second e.t.'s and was contemplating a 9-inch until he read about a Camaro in Car Craft with a Dana 60 swap from Strange engineering with 4.10:1 gears and a Detroit Locker, so he used one of that combo.
Wheels/Tires: For the track he uses 15 x 10 Weld Pro Stars in the rear with 4.5-inch backspacing and 29.5 x 9 ET Drag tires. He still had to have the Dana narrowed 1 inch on each end, and there was a little trimming to do on the inner fender. On the street Brian uses a set of 15×8 Stars with 275/60R 15 ET Street Radials. On the front is a set of 15×5 Weld Pro Stars with 205/70R15 Cooper tires.
Trunk: The battery location is to save room to haul stuff, tools, and extra parts in case something should happen.

First Drive: 2013 Range Rover
High-Tech, High-Dollar Dirt Machine
Forty some years ago the first Range Rover was revealed to the public, a high-end vehicle from the tough and tested Land Rover lineage. For 2013 the fourth generation of Range Rover is being offered. This new model is a modern example of technology, luxury, and performance while retaining off-road capability. We cannot deny that the Range Rover is a pinnacle vehicle with a price tag to match, but when a manufacturer is designing and engineering a vehicle that must work off-road and will carry an $85,000-$110,000 sticker, it allows them to come up with some really exciting technology. We know that most of you are not in the market for something like this right now, but some of you are, and all of you will find the innovation in this vehicle totally drool-worthy.
The Range Rover brand is unique. While it is born from the British Land Rover heritage of rugged off-road performance for farmers in the U.K., it has always had a bit more royalty than the Series, Defenders, and Discoveries of LR. Yes, in the USA Land Rovers were yuppified by many, but in England, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland you see farmers hauling sheep in the back of them. The Range Rover was designed as a "premium leisure vehicle," but not specifically the luxury vehicle is has become. It was supposed to work off-road but still ride excellent, thus it was an early adopter of coil-spring suspension along with plenty of wheel travel. Stepping up to Range Rovers vehicles are Kings and Queens, rap stars, and oil-rich sheiks, but don't confuse these highbrow vehicles with a lack of off-road prowess. In fact, for many years Range Rovers were the vehicle of choice for the rugged Camel Trophy where they devoured deserts, jungles, and mountains while packed with khaki-clad uberdudes.
The '13 Range Rover will no doubt keep its customer base of the megarich, but we are here to say these trucks could still cross a thick jungle or desolate desert if need be. We recently visited the northern African country of Morocco to test-drive this latest, greatest of British royal off-roaders. While blown away at the interior of the 4x4 luxo-truck, we were also delighted at what it would do in the dirt, dunes, and deluge of a Moroccan monsoon. As avid off-roaders we cannot help but be concerned with the multitude of electronic wizardry that makes these trucks work so well. At the same time, as gearheads, we are enthralled by the integrated intake snorkels, aircraft-style all-aluminum unibody construction, multiple terrain settings, and get-up-and-go of the optional supercharged V-8 engine. The new Range Rover fulfills a niche of extravagant off-roader while still upholding the heritage of the Rover name.
Did you know that back in 1969 when Land Rover began development of the very first Range Rover, they needed some way to test it without actually revealing what it was? Those prototype Rovers became what is now referred to as the Range Rover Classic, first introduced in the U.S. in 1987. But back in 1969 they were called "Velar" to help throw off anyone wondering what these prototypes might be. Range Rover had one of these original prototypes on display in Morocco where, believe it or not, these early prototypes were tested back in 1969. The second generation Range Rover, known as the P38A, arrived in 1994. The third generation, called the L322, went on sale in 2002. This new fourth-generation Range Rover is known as the L405 amongst Range Rover internal staff and hardcore enthusiasts.

The Washington Post reports that Jill Kelley, a close friend of both General Petraeus and General Allen, "cultivated close ties to the military." She did so, in part, by throwing lavish parties for "military brass" that featured "valet parking, string quartets on the lawn, premium cigars and champagne, and caviar-laden buffets."
Meanwhile, the Kelley family (her husband is a surgeon) is massively in debt, with foreclosure proceedings initiated on two of their properties.
The Post also reports that Kelley is a native of Lebanan, and acted (according to a former Petraeus staffer) as a self-appointed go-between for Central Command officers with Lebanese and other Middle East officials.
Kelley, says the Post, "flaunted her access to military VIPs but also developed genuine friendships with some." By coincidence, two of the nation's most very important military people were among her "genuine friends."
Kelley's complaint against Paula Broadwell sparked the investigation that uncovered the Petraeus scandal. This makes it difficult to believe that she was engaged in espionage. Otherwise, that suspicion might be hard to avoid. However, it should also be noted that, at some point, Kelley asked the FBI to drop the investigation.
One last twist, though. The FBI says that its search of Broadwell's home found classified documents. So there appears to be a security breach, at a minimum, somewhere in this plot.

That's a little worrisome that the Cantina aliens were on that list. I haven't seen massive numbers of those (compared to something like Yarna) and I want Hasbro to be encouraged to keep making them.I guess we can expect to see a run of $70.00 battle packs later on with all these figures stuffed into them, plus one Tonnika Sister so you have to buy it.

Through the years there is kind of a running discussion about how to preach and when you preach, what you should say and how you should say it. And I'm outside the box of kind of most contemporary discussions about preaching and I often have to sort of defend myself.
The criticism is this, MacArthur is biblical, he's just not relevant. MacArthur is biblical, he's just not practical. MacArthur is good on interpretation, he's weak on application. And I think that people have said this and by virtue of the way they view what I do, they think they're right, and I understand that. I don't have a quarrel with that.
But I want you to understand, if you don't already understand, what I think should happen in effective biblical preaching. You heard a testimony tonight in the waters of Baptism from Juan about how he kept coming to Grace Church. And in spite of the fact that he wanted to be a hypocrite, the power of the Scripture began to overwhelm him.
Now let me tell you what happens when you preach effectively. You do explanation. In other words, you explain the meaning of Scripture, okay? The explanation carries with it implication. In other words, there are implications built into this truth that impact us. You add to that exhortation. And I've said things tonight to exhort you to follow what is implied by the text. Now when you deal with the text and the armor of God, like tonight, all I can do is explain it. That's all it does. There aren't any applications in that text. It doesn't say, "And here's how to do this if you're 32 years old, and you live in North Hollywood." "Here's how to do this the next time you go to a Mall." "Here's how to do this when you go in your car and you're driving in a traffic jam." It doesn't tell you that. And if I made my message mostly a whole lot of those little illustrations, I would be missing 90 percent of you who don't live in that experience.
It's not for me to do that. Application belongs to the Spirit of God. All I'm interested in is explanation and its implications. And the power comes in the implication and the Spirit of God takes the implications of what I've said tonight, all these things I've said, I don't need to say all kinds of little scenarios to you and paint all kinds of little individual circumstances. All I need you to know is this is what the Word of God says and the implications are powerfully brought to bear with authority on your life and I exhort you to respond to those implications, it is the Spirit's work to drive those implications into direct and personal application. That's why you're not going to, like so many preachers, you're not going to hear me create all kinds of practical scenarios about how this all fleshes out in everybody's world because you may hit somebody, you may hit a person here or there, that's kind of a rifle-shot approach, the shot-gun approach that sprays everybody is the implicational essence of Scripture. That's the power. And that's when everybody walks out and says, "Wow, that hit me!" because you already have a commitment to the authority and the power of Scripture.
You already have a commitment to the truthfulness of Scripture. All I want you to understand is what it means. And in the meaning expanded beyond the given text to other texts so that you build all the theological implications, I leave you with the implications and an exhortation to be obedient and I leave the application to the Spirit.
Now I'm not trying to defend myself, but I was at a Pastors' Conference in the Midwest a few weeks ago and they were asking me, "Why don't you ever give any application?" And I had to explain myself that that's not my job. I think what I'm saying is the most practical thing. You know, there's a lot of application without interpretation or implication...just application. That's not what we do when we do expository preaching. The power is in the truth from the text, blended with other texts so that the full implications of this text break in upon your mind and you understand and you feel the weight of that of those implications against your own life and the Spirit of God drives that into the particular zones where you need to make application, okay?
So now you know. You've been experiencing this. You had no idea what you were experiencing, right? (Applause) Okay.

I'm hanging in there, Bro. How about you?
It's actually not doing awful man. I don't think I would probably recommend it to anyone, but it's held up well. We haven't really had issues with warping or anything of that nature. The real issue is that it isn't very good with scratches and we've had to touch up a few places. It was miles better than what we had down there before (especially for the low price) But it would probably be better to just spend the extra and do it right next time.
Hey, sorry I just saw this.
I usually watch at home. I'll go out to a bar to watch other games, but for my Broncos I've gotta be away from the distractions and social stuff and just focus on the game, be able to hear the announcers, etc.
I'm not aware of any Broncos bars around Boise though, if there was I might be willing to check it out.
10 years. I'm hurt. Actually, I'm not sure. It's good to see you more active here.
I'm doing great, thanks. Hope you and the family are well.
Hey, Man, how is it going?
Sorry Boise lost to BYU.
I saw one episode - the premiere. Episode was so-so.

Digitimes cites yet more upstream supply chain sources which we treat as spuriously as ever - but does note that the Nvidia Tegra 4i would solve this 4G problem but won't launch soon enough for Google.
And I/O I/O I/O
We're expecting to hear something official on the next Nexus tablets from Google at its May I/O developer conference, at which point we'll find out for sure whether Asus is even the company making the slate.
In January Digitimes busted out some more sources who said that Asus was the chosen collaborator on a super-cheap new tablet, but it then reported that Asus denied the claims.
The moral of the story is don't believe everything you read, especially if you read it on Digitimes. So… Nvidia processor, anyone?

That excellent post of Tantek Çelik's, like all well–hyperlinked documents, lead me to a whole raft of great #indieweb resources I hadn't come across before:
(In other news: I need to make a "dump tabs into new note dialog" browser #extension)
"I am not a number, I am my domain name" — Tantek Çelik eloquently summarises #indieweb thinking in On Silos vs an Open Social Web #bookmark
I really can't stress just how brilliant the identengine.com API is. Solves so many problems, implements so many standards, but more importantly: it is truly, truly webby. Forming a graph of a persons profiles by following rel links, then accumulating all that info is a vital building block. Great work Glenn Jones! #indieweb #web
This evening's #indieweb project: quoting UIs. Why they suck or for some reason do not exist, research into existing ones (found a nice github example) and silo equivalents.
So, which is more annoying, POSSE permalinks w/ … if continued, in () if not, or Aral Balkan's …tweet…continued…thing…? For comparison:
Personally I find the …/() permalink/shortlink/short id pattern to be much more readable, especially when there are multiple long tweets happening at the same time, and they are mainly one or two words over Twitter's limit. But it is more cluttered than the … technique.
I did a #webaction #toolbelt video:
We have a #webactions Hero Toolbelt config UI!
Now onto the actual meat. Most of this was already implemented in my fork of #indieweb reply, I just have to tidy it up and add in the
<action> shim.
Tom Morris tigerchops twitter is just temporary infrastructure for social BC ;) #indieweb
.haschek's #indieweb site is nice: http://michael.haschke.biz/
.Laura Kalbag "on your own space" is important but not a prerequisite of #indieweb (IMO at least). The domain name is the most important thing, so starting with hosted wordpress.com or tumblr or even just redirecting to it is valid and an easy first step.
I'd encourage you to check out the Getting Started Guide — feedback/edits gratefully accepted, it's important to me that the guide is as helpful and clear as it can be.
Laura Kalbag would you agree that wordpress.com (and to a lesser extent, other wordpress services) is non-techie-friendly? It supports most of the infrastructure we're using on our #indieweb sites (e.g. pubsubhubbub, pingback, microformats) and provided you hook up your own domain name is an equally valid way of owning your content/identity online as rolling your own.
Laura Kalbag no, no, no, the
#indieweb is the future :) Not any one silo.

branch that's great to hear, but it's not my primary concern and not the reason I don't want to use branch. My concern is that I don't really want to be hosting my thoughts and/or identity in a place I don't control.
Most of the time I would post the content here and duplicate it on the 3rd party site, linking back. In this specific case, being asked to log in with twitter purely for the privilege of asking to be part of a conversation was off-putting enough for me not to bother.
Twitter's typeahead.js looks like a great base for #indieweb #autosuggest — it certainly has better UX than my current technique #bookmark #js

We last checked into the Valley News Live/KVLY/KXJB/Fargp/Grand Forks Hot Box with Chris Berg to watch Minnesota Secretary of State Mark Ritchie defend his opposition to Minnesota's proposed constitutional amendment requiring photo identification for voting. Ritchie had to do some fast taking to escape only slightly scathed. I posted the video and wrote about Ritchie's appearance here. Berg subjected Ritchie to a more rigorous interview by far than he has ever received from anyone in the Minnesota press.
This week Democratic North Dakota Senate candidate Heidi Heitkamp entered the Hot Box with Berg. In order to maintain her viability, Heitkamp has to do some fast talking to dissociate herself from her party. Heitkamp shows just how fast she can talk in order to avoid this week's embarrassments brought to her campaign courtesy of the Democratic National Convention.
Heitkamp's opponent Rick Berg is one of our Pick Six candidates. After watching the video, you may want to lend Berg a hand. To support his campaign, please go here.

Festival of Trees opens for weekend
Proceeds benefit children at Kennedy Krieger Institute
Benefitting children during the holiday season is as easy as enjoying holiday decorations.
Kennedy Krieger's Festival of Trees opened Friday at the Maryland State Fairgrounds in Timonium. The three-day event celebrates the holidays and helps kids at Kennedy Krieger Institute.
The display includes 600 trees, wreaths, gingerbread houses, food, games, a silent auction, rides and Santa Claus for thousands to see. All of the trees are decorated by volunteers and sponsors.
"We were excited to come find our tree among all the others," said Steve Keelty, whose family sponsored a tree. "It's just a great event, our children love it, and we're a proud sponsor of Kennedy Krieger."
"All of the money that's spent here goes to Kennedy Krieger Institute -- which is the most important part. It's our biggest fundraiser, and it helps to go to our research and programs at Kennedy Krieger," said Lainy Lebow-Sachs, executive vice president of external relations at Kennedy Krieger.
Last year, Kennedy Krieger raised $1 million, and they seek to raise even more.
"We couldn't do without it. The help it does for our children, our special needs children is incredible," Lebow-Sachs said.
Last year, 50,000 visited the Festival of Trees, organizers hope to beat that number this year. The festival runs through Sunday at 6 p.m.

Cheek honored as part of pregame ceremonies
TORONTO -- The Blue Jays opened the 2013 season by paying tribute to Hall of Fame broadcaster Tom Cheek.
The former voice of the Blue Jays passed away almost eight years ago, but in December he was named the recipient of this year's Ford C. Frick Award.
The award is presented to broadcasters for "major contributions to baseball" and also means Cheek will be induced into the broadcasters wing of the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown in July.
Cheek was honored with an audio tribute prior to Tuesday night's game against the Indians as the Blue Jays showcased some of the highlights from his broadcasting career, including the infamous "Touch 'em all Joe" from Joe Carter's home run in the 1993 World Series.
The Blue Jays also presented new hardware to some of their recent offseason additions during the pregame ceremony. Mark Buehrle was honored with a 2012 National League Gold Glove Award while R.A. Dickey received his 2012 NL Cy Young Award.
Danielle Wade from the Wizard of Oz musical sang the national anthems. During the anthem, a large group of varsity athletes from the University of Toronto unveiled a 300-by-150 foot Canadian flag, which took up the entire outfield.
The Blue Jays and Indians also paid tribute to those slain during the Newtown, Conn., school shootings with a moment of silence.
The honorary first-pitch duties were assigned to Rush lead vocalist Geddy Lee, who received a standing ovation from the sold-out crowd at Rogers Centre after firing a strike to right-hander Brandon Morrow.

HAMILTON, N.Y. (2/8/13) - A two-goal second period gave Princeton the lead as the men's hockey team defeated Colgate 4-2 on Friday, Feb. 8 at Starr Rink. With the win the Tigers post a season sweep of the Raiders, after winning 4-0 in November.
Freshman Michael Ambrosia put Princeton on the scoreboard at
7:06 of the first when junior Andrew Calof dropped the puck off in
the slot.
Colgate's Joe Wilson evened the game right before the close of the first period scoring on the doorstep on a feed from Jeremy Price behind the cage.
Junior Alec Rush regained the lead for Princeton at 6:09 of the second period. Rush scored on a rocket from the right point that sailed past netminder Spencer Finney. The goal is Rush's second of the season.
Junior captain Jack Berger snapped his scoreless streak with a power-play goal at 14:19. It makes his first goal in 24 games. Juniors Will MacDonald and sophomore Aaron Ave were credited with the assists.
Thomas Larkin cut the Raiders' deficit to one early in the third with help from Mike Borkowski and John Lidgett. The goal came at 1:38, just after a penalty on Darcy Murphy expired.
Another career first came for rookie Jonathan Liau as he scored his first goal at 7:10 to give the Tigers a 4-2 lead. Senior Rob Kleebaum put the puck in play from the left boards and Liau put away a rebound by junior Andrew Ammon.
Senior Mike Condon made 36 saves as the Tigers improve to 8-10-4 overall and 6-6-3 in ECAC Hockey. Condon is now 4-0 all-time against Colgate.
Finney skated to the bench with 1:04 remaining but the Raiders couldn't get anything past the Tiger defense. Condon stopped one shot and the Tigers blocked three in the final minute of play.
Finney ended the game with 22 stops as Colgate falls to 13-10-4 overall and 5-7-3 in the league.
Princeton picked up a number of penalties but its penalty-killing unit was on fire. The Tigers limited Colgate to just eight shots during 12:27 minutes. Princeton was 7 for 7 on the penalty kill and 1 for 5 on the power play.
Princeton will take on Cornell tomorrow night, Feb. 9 at 7 p.m. Quinnipiac defeated Cornell 4-1 this evening at Lynah Rink. The Tigers are now tied for fifth place in the league with RPI and Clarkson.

Bollywood superstar and the "Peepli Live" producer Aamir Khan believes his film will benefit from the massive popularity of 2008's "Slumdog Millionaire."
But he does not believe the film -- directed by Brit Danny Boyle --reflects Indian film culture.
"Audiences here in the US see that as an Indian film," Khan tells PopcornBiz. "But Indians don't perceive that as an Indian film because Danny is not Indian.
"While it's about India, I don't think it's an Indian film," he added. "I don't feel the point of view is Indian. It's Danny's point of view,
which is a great point of view."
Khan said he's a big admirer of Boyle and his work. Further, the film has done its part in opening the door to India's film culture in the United States. The film won a stunning eight Oscars and became the feel good story of the 2009 awards season.
"It only helps," says Khan. "As a result of 'Slumdog' people are more interested in Indian films and might want to experience them over here."
But he also pointed out that this has been a gradual shift which he saw with "Lagaan: Once Upon a Time in India" which was nominated for a Best Foreign Language Film Oscar after its 2001 release. Khan starred and produced in the film depicting a village's quest to lower taxes by winning a cricket match against their local British rulers.
"But I do feel the door is still opening," says Khan.
Khan's latest film, which he produced but opted not to star in, is "Peepli Live" which depicts a peasant who finds the only way out of
his financial crisis is the financial benefits of suicide. It opens Aug. 13.

Certain movies are better watched with dad. I hate to make stereotypes but Star Wars is probably one of those films. So is Father of the Bride. Field of Dreams is another.
With Father's Day around the corner, I asked SFGate readers and Common Sense Media (a nonprofit advocacy group that helps parents navigate media) to develop a list of movies that are more fun or meaningful when parked in front of the TV with dad. I requested a broad range of picks that could be enjoyed by dads with young kids and fathers of teens. I also wanted some films in which a father plays a key role.
We ended up with 15 flicks, but we hope that you'll offer more ideas in the comments—because those special "dad films" are different for every family.
I can remember watching the Sound of Music with my grandfather as a kid. He was a man who loved music and during the songs he'd sway his body gracefully and hum along.
My best movie memories with my own father come from watching ridiculous, slap-stick comedies: Vacation, Space Balls and his absolute favorite Planes, Trains and Automobiles. We still watch that film together about once a year—and every year his laughs of hysteria get louder and louder when Steve Martin tells off the woman at the ticket counter and I cry harder and harder at the end when John Candy shares Thanksgiving with Martin and his family. I can't imagine enjoying that movie as much with anyone else. In my book, it's a dad film.
Please let us know about the "dad films" in your family and feel free to share anecdotes about those special times when you and your dad bonded over a bowl of buttery popcorn and a movie that made you laugh or cry.
(Note: Common Sense Media provided us with suggested ages for movies in the slide show. The organization's website is a great resource for determining whether a movie is appropriate for your child.)

Medicare buy-in a budget solution?
To get to a budget deal, could Washington buy in to a Medicare buy-in?
That's the question left hanging by a recent Urban Institute paper which maps out one path to bridge the partisan divide over Republican demands that the eligibility age for Medicare be adjusted upward from 65 to 67 so as to conform with Social Security.
Story Continued Below
The GOP would get the higher age it wants. But in turn, it must agree to allow 65- and 66-year-olds — who would be left out in the cold — to buy in to Medicare until they are 67.
"We begin with the understanding that life expectancy has increased since Medicare was established in 1965, and it's reasonable to raise the eligibility age, just as we have with Social Security," says Dr. Robert Berenson, one of the authors. "But it's not reasonable to leave people unprotected in the private market. So we think it's best to allow them to buy in to the best deal, Medicare. And that establishes continuity for them when they reach 67 and are eligible."
Individuals would pay the full cost of actuarially fair premiums for Medicare hospital, physician and drug coverage. This could run about $10,000 annually, requiring assistance for people with lower incomes. But that cost estimate is considerably less than what private insurance plans would charge, and both Democratic and Republican staff in Congress described the approach as "intriguing."
"It's an idea worth exploring," one GOP leadership aide told POLITICO. "There are no immediate red lines that come to mind."
"I think the idea has merit to it," said Sen. Johnny Isakson (R-Ga.) who will help to host a dinner next week for President Barack Obama and about a dozen Senate Republicans. "You are shifting two years of cost from the government and allowing the buy-in makes it easier to do that. It's a different way to get to where people want to go and something that ought to be considered."
No one's inventing the wheel here. But as Congress returns next week from its spring recess, this is the type of discussion both parties admit they must have if there is any real chance of making progress on a deficit-reduction deal.
Washington's attention has shifted to gun control and immigration. But the clock is still ticking on Treasury's borrowing authority, which is likely to be exhausted before summer's end. The March 1 sequestration cuts continue to take their toll on government operations and the military, even as the whole 2014 appropriations process remains in limbo until some agreement is reached.
Before leaving for the holidays, the House and Senate passed almost diametrically opposite budgets. Obama's own fiscal 2014 blueprint — to be rolled out April 10 — is expected to fall somewhere between the two, albeit far to the left still of the House GOP. That same day, the president is slated to participate in the dinner he asked Isakson to arrange with Republican senators.

Welcome to the Mathematics Education Database
FIZ Karlsruhe decided 2016 to support a proposal for a future free access to the database which has been worked out by the editor-in-chief and the German Society for Didactics of Mathematics (GDM).
The German Society of Didactics of Mathematics (GDM) is happy to announce that starting 2017 they will offer the content of MathEduc for free and open to everyone. In addition, it is planned to allow members of the mathematics education community to contribute to the database and create and edit content.This will need some technical work behind the scenes and a lot of organizational and structural work, so MathEduc will be offered in its current form until the replacement platform is up and running.
For any further questions or suggestions regarding the continuation of MathEduc, feel free to contact the editor-in-chief Prof. Dr. Ulrich Kortenkamp: ulrich(dot)kortenkamp(at)uni-potsdam.de.

The Karen Page Courage Award is presented to an individual in Hope athletics who exhibits the courage and tenacity to continue to play and compete despite overwhelming adversity.
The award honors the memory of Karen Page, Hope's women's tennis coach, who lost her brave battle to breast cancer in 2009.Through this five-year battle and its exhausting treatment, KP -- as she was called by her players and other Hope athletes -- never stopped coaching and encouraging those around her.
This year's recipient of the Karen Page Courage award is sophomore Tarwo Konbloa, a member of the soccer team. After fleeing the unrest of Nigeria, Tarwo and his family came to the United States and located in Kentwood, Mich.
