The Malloy/Jordan East Winston Heritage Center of the Forsyth County Public Library is the recent recipient of a video collection chronicling local heroes and community events.
The donation, given by Karim Allah as a part of the library's Black History Month Celebration, serves as a time capsule of area history, documenting an important period of our East Winston's past. The collection includes interviews conducted over the course of thirteen years during Mr. Allah's TV Show, which are highlighted by conversations with many prominent local figures like Carl Matthews, who served as leader of the first sit-in victory; William Roscoe Anderson, who established the first basketball team at Winston-Salem State; Dr. Rembert Malloy, Clarence "Big House" Gaines, and pioneers of the Nation of Islam in Forsyth County. Also included are his self-produced documentaries The First Forty Years of Atkins High School and The Reunion of the Black Haze Band.
Mr. Allah hopes that the community is inspired by the collection and that the stories in the videos will serve as a history lesson and blueprint for success among area youth. The library plans to digitize the donation and make it available at both Malloy/Jordan East Winston Heritage Center and Central Library's North Carolina Room. For more information or to view Mr. Allah's collection, contact the Malloy/Jordan East Winston Heritage Center at 336-703-2950.

Forget the firm handshake and networking chit chat. Business students who want a job at Caesars Entertainment need to work on their poker faces.
Nearly 300 Master of Business Administration students and alumni anted up for a three-day Texas Hold `em poker contest last weekend in hopes of hauling in a corner office. Hiring managers and corporate executives schmoozed with candidates during breaks in the action.
The annual MBA tournament on the Las Vegas Strip was little more than a marketing gimmick until last year, when Caesars decided to add cocktail hours and high-level interviews, said Tijuana Plant, who works in the company's human resources department.
Now, the event is a serious recruitment tool. The festive atmosphere and real-money stakes help the company screen for the critical thinking ability and social aptitude needed in the gambling industry, where business is often mixed with pleasure, Plant said.
"We like to see analytical people," she said. "Poker players are analytical and are willing to take strategic risk, and that is what we're looking for."
Caesars held a networking reception Friday and a two-hour presentation about its corporate culture Saturday. On Sunday, 20 lucky MBAs were invited to formally interview with casino bigwigs for a spot in the company's 10-week management trainee program, which pays $16,000.
Apprentices perform a variety of high-level jobs, including masterminding marketing strategies and working with general managers to troubleshoot on properties, Plant said. Last year, four of the 12 people accepted into the trainee program played in the tournament.
Students flew in from prestigious programs including Harvard Business School, the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, and the MIT Sloan School of Management. But executives were on the alert for nerds.
"We're not selling insurance. This is a fun industry, and we're selling a lifestyle," Plant said. "We're watching for whether they're not having a good time at all and just focusing on the job, or if they're having fun and looking for a job at the same time. It's kind of our test."
Caesars Entertainment Corp. operates more than 40 casinos around the world, including Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, the Emerald Casino Resort in South Africa and Harrah's casinos all over the country.
Ashish Gupta was among the students who interviewed Sunday. He said he lasted a few hours in Friday's tournament but spent most of the weekend making friends and learning about the casino industry.
"I just made my bid and had a good time," said Gupta, who is in his second year at the University of Southern California's Marshall School of Business. "I was not really stressed out about losing my buy-in. It was cool just meeting people in an environment where you wouldn't normally have that interaction."
Some aspiring business moguls who did not land interviews still walked away from the tournament at the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino with cash prizes approaching $8,000. Candidates had to ante from $85 to $225 to enter the eighth annual tournament, depending on how much they hoped to win.
Caesars appears to be the only casino to pit potential hires against each other around a card table. But more companies are turning to this kind of "event recruiting" to compete for top candidates, though job seekers are not usually required to pay to play, said Emily Taylor, who teaches career management at UCLA's Anderson School of Management.
"I think it's a great strategy by Caesars," she said. "The economy is improving and we're starting to see firms trying to distinguish themselves in different ways."
Creative gambits also allow recruiters to establish a cultural match more quickly, said Lisa Feldman, executive director of MBA career management at the University of California, Berkeley's Haas School of Business.
Last fall, a division of Amazon.com Inc. sponsored a Friday-night party for Haas students, she said. Neutrogena Corp. invites students to write essays about skin care to win admission to a cocktail party. And one real estate investment management firm in Newport Beach, Calif., flies standout students to a golf tournament.
These events are designed to tell a story about the company, Feldman said, and the Caesars tournament told one, too.
"The gesture of having a buy-in kind of says, `We're about real money," she said.
John Unwin, CEO of the Cosmopolitan Las Vegas, which competes with Caesars, said his hiring managers also like to observe candidates interacting with one other, but they create those situations without a mound of chips.
He said poker fit more directly in Caesars' wheelhouse.
"They love poker. They own the World Series of Poker," he said.
The game also seems to have taken hold in MBA programs, with schools such as Wharton and the University of Chicago Booth School of Business setting up their own regular card games.
Plant said Caesars has always used the tournament to attract students' attention, even before adding the interview component. She added that poker may one day eclipse golf as the preferred pastime of the business elite.
"It's becoming more of a way for people to interact with each other and discuss business in a casual setting," she said.
The MBA tournament candidates who end up landing casino jobs may not play again for a while, though. Caesars executives are banned from playing cards on company property.

2008: A socio-economic crisis hits the mining district
In 2008, Act One of what would be the great Tunisian revolt of late 2010, early 2011 broke out in the country's Gafsa phosphate mining industry region. What had formerly been a work force of 18,000+ was cut to less than 6,000 in less than a decade. The cuts came not because the phosphate industry was suffering but, to the contrary, because it had done so well. It was a result of modernization with high-tech machines replacing people.
Old story. Profitability and production went up in the industry during these years (1990 – 2008) but jobs went out the window too. Nor was any of that newfound wealth re-invested in any manner to compensate for lost employment. After all this was not a private but a state-run industry!
The center of the storm was a mining town, Redeyef.
It was a rebellion of major proportions. Literally the entire community rose up in anger and frustration calling for fair hiring practices, jobs, infrastructural development – in short a life for a dying community. If Redeyef was going to die, at least its people were going to go down fighting, fighting for what Tunisian independence from France in 1956 had long promised but never delivered: democracy and development.
There had been other rebellions in Tunisia's rural areas over the years; in fact, in the rural interior they were frequent but not of this magnitude. Until Redeyef, Ben Ali had been able to contain and cauterize rural uprisings before they reached Tunis, Sousse, the Sahel region (Madhia) and Sfax, heart of the country's economy and its tourism industry. He almost succeeded with the Redeyef uprising too, except for one little detail, that being the internet. As a result of cellphone cameras, independent journalism transmitted on satellite, Facebook, etc. I could sit in my basement office in Denver, Colorado and follow the uprising almost day by day.
That is exactly what I did. I watched it all on my computer
- as first Ben Ali tried to ignore the turmoil and when he couldn't, sent in his security troops.
- as 20,000 people – the entire town of Redeyef – marched on the town jail to secure the release of the protest leaders and was proud that so many of them were teachers!
- as the repression deepened – 200+ arrests, some deaths as the security forces open fired, killing several unlucky ones who just happened to be on the scene.
- as the reports of torture came in, accompanied by photos that would stand up in court most places in the world, excepting Tunisia of course.
- as hundreds of locals, bitter at being crushed by a government they could not believe would turn on them like that, tried to flee the country by leaving for nearby Algeria.
- as those desperate souls having given up on the idea of Tunisia as they were met at the border by armed security forces, pummeled and forced to turn back. Ben Ali was afraid the international media coverage of such an event might negatively impact foreign investment and tourism. Of course, what else?
Enter Roger Bismuth
Enter onto this disturbing scene one Roger Bismuth, advisor to sinc- deposed President of Tunisia, Zine el Abidine Ben Ali; multi-millionaire developer; until recently the only Jewish parliamentarian in the Arab World; and last but not least, President of Tunisia's small Jewish Community of between 1500 – 1800 persons, most of whom live in the Tunis region and on the island of Djerba. Bismuth's statements on the repression in Redeyef were, let's just say, unbecoming.
He did not deny there were "problems" but "a la Mussolini" emphasized Tunisia was a safe country where people could walk around at night without being robbed or otherwise harassed, i.e., the repression is needed to keep social peace. Bismuth commented that there was some possibility of private investment that might follow to rectify the situation. Nothing happened on that score though for the next few years until Mohammed Bouazizi, exactly one year ago today (I write on December 17, 2011) poured paint thinner over himself and after being thrown out of the Sidi Bouzid town hall, lit a match seen round the world.
Bismuth's comments gave me such a creepy feeling at the time. A Jewish spokesman for Ben Ali! A Jew on "the wrong side of history." That can have unpleasant consequences. I wondered if this would impact Tunisia's Jewish Community. The whole thing seemed weird; why would he put himself in such a position? I'm still wondering that.
Here was a major socio-economic crisis that Ben Ali had no intention of addressing, but to smooth things over, he carts in as his spokesman, the president of Tunisia's tiny Jewish Community? It seemed a cynical attempt use a Jewish face for damage control. Bismuth took the bait and did his best to soften the hard edge of Ben Ali's repressive apparatus.
2011: Bye-bye Zini and Leila with 40% of Tunisia's national wealth
Then Zine Ben Ali made his hasty exit from the scene, saying "sayonara" to the Tunisian people, trying to get used to the fact that he can't torture people at will anymore. He went off to his post – power retirement in Jedda, Saudi Arabia. With him came his darling wife and some of the members of the two family (Ben Ali, Trabelsi) clans; they were saddened to leave Tunis, a blow softened somewhat by the fact that they took 40% of the country's wealth with them according to some estimates.
The events of late 2010, early 2011 must have placed Citizen Bismuth in an awkward position, on "the wrong side" of history. It would take considerable organizing talent, good political instincts and probably some sharp advisers for him not to sink on Ben Ali's ship. Besides I've heard Jeddah, where the Ben Ali family relocated, is not the best place for a Tunisian Jew who not so long ago made his own personal pilgrimage – to pay homage to Israeli General Ariel Sharon, lying in a coma in Israel.
As an advisor to Ben Ali, Bismuth was definitely "up there," a part of Ben Ali's ruling circle, even if his actual power was limited. It is difficult to get as far as Bismuth economically in Tunisia, especially during the Ben Ali years, "on your own" so to speak. All the more reason why, most likely, Roger Bismuth was a little nervous in the period after Ben Ali was forced from Tunisia. He is quoted in at least one article (March, 2011) as saying that he isn't taking his options of leaving Tunisia for Israel off of the table!
That was in March; now we are approaching the end of the year. Although it could have cost him, Bismuth has personally come through the crisis of the past year quite well indeed. A modern Tunisian Jewish Fouche? He's landed on his feet. All in all, so has Tunisia's Jewish Community. All's well that ends well?
Roger Bismuth has come through these stormy waters unscathed. He has not been indicted for anything, nor has Bismuth picked up and moved to Israel. He's still in Tunisia, a Tunisian citizen, although he can no longer claim the title of being the only Jewish Member of Parliament in the Arab World, as he is out of office. Nor have his business interests been touched. Furthermore, Bismuth's past association with Ben Ali does not appear to have hurt him much as he remains the President of Tunisia's Jewish Community. I'm not exactly sure how he worked all that out, but if Tunisia functions anything like Colorado, he must have some pretty good attorneys advising and negotiating for him.
An ugly "anti-Jewish Salafist dance," but no support from broader Tunisian society
Although Tunisia's Jewish Community seems to have come through the events of this past year intact and generally in good political and social health, this has been a year of uncertainty for them. Recent events cap what has been a 130-year Tunisian Jewish rollercoaster ride that started with Tunisia becoming a French protectorate in 1881. It continues today.
Since the collapse of the Ben Ali-Trabelsi regime, there have been anti-Jewish incidents in Tunisia as well as rumors, some of which proved to be unfounded. But a Salafist (radical Islamic fundamentalist) openly anti-Jewish demonstration not long after Ben Ali fled in early February, 2011 did take place in front of Tunis' main synagogue on Ave. de la Liberte. Several hundred people were involved. There were accusations some elements of Ben Ali's former security force were involved, attempting to sow seeds of confusion and split the unity of the anti-Ben Ali social forces.
It was ugly, roundly condemned by virtually all elements of Tunisian society, including what is now the influential moderate Islamic Ennadha Party. The Salafist synagogue demonstration did accomplish one thing: it frightened people some, especially Tunisian Jews. Israeli calls for Tunisia's remaining Jews to leave the country and join the Zionist state fell flat and were publicly rejected by Tunisian Jews themselves.
For Tunisia's Salafists, who give all appearances to be run by forces outside of Tunisia's mainstream, demonstrating at Tunisia's main synagogue was just a warmup round for their real target, strengthening their position in Tunisia's mosques, its more secular schools and media.
It's symbolically reminiscent of the Crusaders of yore, "reving up their medieval storm troopers," by killing Jews in Germany on their way to kill Moslems in Jerusalem, a practice round so to speak. For the modern-day Tunisian Salafists it's a case of slandering a synagogue to prepare for a cultural offensive against the country's educational system and media in an attempt, using the usual thug tactics, to bring the broader and more open society "in line" with Wahhabist thought.
Kick the Jews in the nuts first for old time's sake and then move on to more strategic targets. Unable to get the Tunisian people roused about anti-Jewish sentiment – the synagogue protest did not win them support – the Salafists have moved on. They have explored other avenues to break into the Tunisian mainstream, so far unsuccessfully, their social base in Tunisian society being quite thin.
In the period both before and after the October 23, 2011 Tunisian national elections, Ennadha leaders Rachid Ghannouchi and Hamadi Jabeli, the latter now the country's prime minister, went out of their way to meet with Bismuth to reassure him of Ennadha's good will. The message was clear: that an Ennadha victory would not negatively affect Tunisia's Jewish community status and that there is nothing to fear. This can be explained both by reasons of principle as well as politically.
The scoop on Tunisian JewsNo need to engage in political fantasy.
There is something amiss about a Tunisian Jewish Community that a century ago was at least 300,000 out of 10,000,000 and is now reduced to 1,500 – or 1,800 at most in a population now of 10 million plus. It hasn't been all peaches and cream for Tunisia's Jews although many more of them migrated to France rather than going to Israel. But the details and parameters of that history, and it will be covered, we'll put aside for another entry (coming soon by the way).
Still, for all that, it is useful to remember that Tunisia is, as I have said repeatedly in this series, a tolerant place. Jews have been a part of Tunisian history since long before the time of Christ, long before there was a European Jewish Community even.
Those traditions of tolerance and of the general integration of Jews into the fabric of Tunisian life run deep. Even as the Jewish Community here (I write from Tunisia) shrank, a lot of this good will remains. Older Tunisians remember when they socialized with Jewish neighbors, most vividly reinforced in the Tunisian film Summer in La Goulette by Tunisian film director Ferid Boughedir. Tunisian Jews also keep their memories alive through websites (Harissa.com), blogs and some pretty fine scholarship on their own complex history.
Changing U.S. Role
There are also political reasons why some genuine turn for the worse for Tunisia's Jewish Community is not likely in the offing and that the Salafist outburst of a few months ago is not indicative of a deeper trend here. First of all, Tunisia's Jews today are a tiny community. Its historic place in Tunisian society is great, but its economic resources and actual population are minimal. The idea that the community is "spying for Israel" is utter nonsense. Those in power as well as many others here know it.
Another factor that comes into play is Tunisia's improving relations with the Obama Administration. These relations are still in a formative stage, but they seem to deepen daily. They have little to do with Tunisia's Jews, but a lot to do with a U.S. attempt to find a new cultural wedge in the Arab World where its influence – despite U.S. military might – had declined dramatically as a result of the invasion of Iraq, the wars in Afghanistan, Pakistan, etc., as well as U.S. support for the Saudis and other medieval Middle East autocracies.
With Tunisia the Obama Administration hopes to open a new page of U.S. Arab relations. I'm convinced of this, probably the biggest surprise of my three-week visit here. (It could all come unglued if the U.S. and/or Israel attack Iran by the way ). Any efforts to create difficulties for Tunisia's tiny Jewish minority would only complicate, if not sabotage, this political thaw. Nor is there any will to move in this direction.
The new Tunisian government will do everything it can to avoid such a crisis. This also extends to how Tunisia will deal with the Israeli-Palestinian issue. Tunisians, as I have written elsewhere, have overwhelming sympathy for the plight of the Palestinian people. How that is expressed politically is a different matter. When certain draft documents were circulating suggesting condemning Zionism as a part of the new Tunisian constitution, Rachid Ghannouchi immediately cut off the discussion and ended it curtly by killing the idea. Good relations with the Obama Administration apparently trumped official criticism of Israel. To make the point, Ghannouchi made his announcement of this policy in Washington D.C. on his recent visit.
For its own strategic reasons, Tunisia wants to improve its ties with the United States, to lessen its dependency on its former colonial power. It cannot do that tolerating an anti-Jewish policy at home. Its sympathy for the Palestinians will continue to be expressed, but the Tunisians will be careful not to cross an invisible line. They know exactly how far they can and cannot go on this issue.
Meanwhile – and it is of course a good thing – Tunisia's Jewish Community can breathe easy and I believe this will be the case for some time into the future and I for one am very pleased. I want to end by noting, strange as it might seem for me that it's here in Tunisia, that I feel as much at home with being Jewish here as any place. But you'll have to wait for Part Two of this series, for that to make sense…Coming soon, tune in.

running an upstart based guest
currently upstart based guests need some manual tweaking to make them work inside a vserver guest.
I made a initpost-file (http://paste.linux-vserver.org/pastebin.php?dl=16020) to be used when creating hosts, so there's no need for manual tweaking. Put it in /usr/lib/util-vserver/distributions/lucid (this is not tested on anything else)
Prepare the host
First of all you need to set the init style of your vserver to plain
# echo plain > /etc/vservers/<vservername>/apps/init/style
Or use '--initstyle plain' when creating the host.
I'd also strongly recommend to mount
/var/run and
/var/lock of the guest as tmpfs. So add the following lines to
none /var/run tmpfs size=16m,nosuid,mode=0755 0 0 none /var/lock tmpfs size=16m,noexec,nosuid,nodev 0 0
remove low level services inside the guest
Then you need to get rid of anything in
/etc/init/ that tries to fiddle with your Server's Hardware or other low-level Stuff that's already handled by your host's kernel/system. Having one such scriptlet still enabled might cause the whole upstart system to fail (like not beeing able to open
/dev/console or failing to start the udev system).
Just remove these scriptlets, move them out of the way or rename them to something not ending in
.conf. Be aware that upstart also parses subfolders of
/etc/init/ for
.conf files.
This is what I deleted on a basic Ubuntu 9.10 guest:
dmesg.conf hostname.conf hwclock-save.conf hwclock.conf mountall-net.conf mountall-reboot.conf mountall-shell.conf mountall.conf network-interface.conf networking.conf procps.conf rsyslog-kmsg.conf tty1.conf tty2.conf tty3.conf tty4.conf tty5.conf tty6.conf upstart-udev-bridge.conf
In Ubuntu 10.04 you also want to remove:
Services you want to look over
There are files in the /etc/init dir that you want to check the startup line of. It could be waiting for something that will never happend since it is in a VServer and thus never start.
for example mysql.conf needs a 'net-device-up'-emit also. by running
vserver <name> exec initctl emit net-device-up
it will come up like a charm. Either put this in vserver.conf or remove in from mysql.conf.
Jobs that doesn't start from scratch:
mysql-server-5.1 (mysql.conf)
Fake low level events inside the guest
Finally you need to fake emit the events that some of these scripts would do during regular boot. Probably the cleanest approach is to add a scriptlet
vserver.conf to
/etc/init/ with this content:
start on startup script touch /var/run/utmp chown root:utmp /var/run/utmp chmod 664 /var/run/utmp initctl emit virtual-filesystems initctl emit local-filesystems initctl emit remote-filesystems initctl emit filesystem end script
The utmp stuff is needed if you mount
/var/run as tmpfs and you don't create utmp anywhere else.
Remove console outputs
If your VServer hangs on the command
vserver <name> stop
and puts out
A timeout occured while waiting for the vserver to finish and it will be killed by sending a SIGKILL signal. The following process list might be useful for finding out the reason of this behavior: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- <pid> <context> <name> ? Ss 0:00 /sbin/init <pid> <context> <name> ? Ss 0:00 /sbin/init ----------------------------------------------------------------------
you should run
sed -i 's/^\(console output\)$/#\1/1' /etc/vservers/$name/vdir/etc/init/*
which will disable all lines with 'console output', and Upstart won't try output to it. Which is a good thing since it doesn't exist.
Adapt /etc/init/rc-sysinit.conf inside the guest
This depends on net-device-up IFACE=lo, remove this from the start line so that it reads:
start on filesystem
This scriptlet tries to parse
/proc/cmdline which will not work and probably isn't needed inside a vserver.
Simply comment out or delete the whole
for ARG in $(cat /proc/cmdline) do...done loop.
Notes for debugging
First you need to run Upstart with the --debug flag, one way of doing it is inserting
"--debug" in INITCMD_START under the xplain-clause inside /usr/lib/util-vserver/vserver.functions (row 316 here) so it reads INITCMD_START=( /sbin/init "--debug" )
Second you should enable console output in the rc-files inside /etc/init, if you had commented them out before you could do
sed -i 's/#^\(console output\)$/\1/1' /etc/vservers/$name/vdir/etc/init/*
Third you need a device to act as console, I used tty0.
cp -a /dev/tty0 /etc/vservers/$name/vdir/dev/console
If you do things at a console of the machine it will now print out detailed information. More on how to debug a Upstart job you'll find on http://upstart.ubuntu.com/wiki/Debugging. Notice that if one fails they all fail.
Notes for older kernels
If you encounter upstart errors like this:
$ vserver foo start init: missing runlevel Try `init --help' for more information.
$ vserver foo start telinit: Failed to connect to socket /com/ubuntu/upstart: Connection refused
then you're probably running the current stable version
/sbin/init implementation requires to be PID 1. It is linked against NPTL (in contrast to sysvinit), which has a bug in it's caching
getpid(2) wrapper. With this kernel version
getpid(2) returns the cached PID to init, resulting in init replacing itself with telinit. You can fix this by upgrading to a
2.6.26+ kernel and a newer vserver patch, or by patching upstart:
diff --git a/init/main.c b/init/main.c index bfcd528..c6c9304 100644 --- a/init/main.c +++ b/init/main.c @@ -37,6 +37,7 @@ #include <string.h> #include <syslog.h> #include <unistd.h> +#include <syscall.h> #include <linux/kd.h> @@ -131,7 +132,7 @@ main (int argc, } /* Check we're process #1 */ - if (getpid () > 1) { + if (syscall(SYS_getpid) > 1) { execv (TELINIT, argv); /* Ignore failure, probably just that telinit doesn't exist */
For more information see the man pages of
getpid(2) (NOTES) and
clone(2) (BUGS).
Init procedure doesn't complete
If you've completed all above steps and some init scripts doesn't get invoked at all (most notably old SYSV init scripts) you might have encountered same error that I did. In Lucid guest I had to comment out following line in /etc/init/ssh.conf:
# replaces SSHD_OOM_ADJUST in /etc/default/ssh oom never
# replaces SSHD_OOM_ADJUST in /etc/default/ssh #oom never
After commenting out this line initialization completed successfully.

What's on your to-do list to get ready for Thanksgiving.
Here's ours courtesy of the USDA for safe handling and preparation of the turkey on its day:
As Thanksgiving approaches, cooking the traditional turkey dinner gives rise to anxieties and questions. What kind of turkey should I buy? Should I buy a frozen turkey or a fresh one? How do I store my turkey? A few simple steps will not only ease your holiday fears, but will ensure a delicious and a safe meal for you, your family, and your friends. The following information may help you prepare your special Thanksgiving meal and help you countdown to the holiday.
Plan Ahead: Plan your menu several weeks before the holiday. Shopping early will ease the countdown tension for your Thanksgiving meal. Ask these questions to help plan your meal. Do you want a fresh or frozen turkey? Do you have enough space to store a frozen bird if purchased in advance; if not, when should you purchase a turkey? What size bird do you need to buy? Fresh or Frozen If you choose to buy a frozen bird you may do so at any time, but make sure you have adequate storage space in your freezer. If you buy a fresh turkey, be sure you purchase it only 1-2 days before cooking. Do not buy a prestuffed fresh turkey. Use the following chart as a helpful guide:
|What Size Turkey to Purchase
of Turkey
to Buy
|Whole bird
|1 pound per person
|Boneless breast of turkey
|1/2 pound per person
|Breast of turkey
|3/4 pound per person
|Prestuffed frozen turkey
|1 1/4 pounds per person –keep frozen until ready to cook
Thawing In the refrigerator
Place frozen bird in original wrapper in the refrigerator (40 °F or below). Allow approximately 24 hours per 4 to 5 pounds of turkey. A thawed turkey can remain in the refrigerator for 1-2 days.
|Thawing Time in the Refrigerator
of Turkey
of Days
|4 to 12 pounds
|1 to 3 days
|12 to 16 pounds
|3 to 4 days
|16 to 20 pounds
|4 to 5 days
|20 to 24 pounds
|5 to 6 days
In cold water
If you forget to thaw the turkey or don't have room in the refrigerator for thawing, don't panic. You can submerge the turkey in cold water and change the water every 30 minutes. Allow about 30 minutes defrosting time per pound of turkey. The following times are suggested for thawing turkey in water. Cook immediately after thawing.
|Thawing Time in Cold Water
of Turkey
to Defrost
|4 to 12 pounds
|2 to 6 hours
|12 to 16 pounds
|6 to 8 hours
|16 to 20 pounds
|8 to 10 hours
|20 to 24 pounds
|10 to 12 hours
In the microwave
Microwave thawing is safe if the turkey is not too large. Check the manufacturer's instructions for the size turkey that will fit into your oven, the minutes per pound, and the power level to use for thawing. Cook immediately after thawing.
Preparation the day before Thanksgiving
Make sure you have all the ingredients you need to prepare your holiday meal. Check to make sure you have all the equipment you will need, including a roasting pan large enough to hold your turkey and a food thermometer. Wet and dry stuffing ingredients can be prepared ahead of time and refrigerated separately. This may also be done on Thanksgiving Day. Mix ingredients just before placing the stuffing inside the turkey cavity or into a casserole dish.
Thanksgiving Day
If you choose to stuff your turkey, stuff loosely. The stuffing should be moist, not dry, since heat destroys bacteria more rapidly in a moist environment. Place stuffed turkey in oven immediately. You may also cook the stuffing outside the bird in a casserole. Judging cooking time for your turkey will be easier if the following chart is used. The
times listed are for a fresh or thawed turkey in an oven at 325 °F. These times are approximate.
Timetables for Turkey Roasting
(325 °F oven temperature)
|Cooking Time — Unstuffed
of Turkey
to Prepare
|8 to 12 pounds
|2 3/4 to 3 hours
|12 to 14 pounds
|3 to 3 3/4 hours
|14 to 18 pounds
|3 3/4 to 4 1/4 hours
|18 to 20 pounds
|4 1/4 to 4 1/2 hours
|20 to 24 pounds
|4 1/2 to 5 hours
|Cooking Time — Stuffed
of Turkey
to Prepare
|8 to 12 pounds
|3 to 3 1/2 hours
|12 to 14 pounds
|3 1/2 to 4 hours
|14 to 18 pounds
|4 to 4 1/4 hours
|18 to 20 pounds
|4 1/4 to 4 3/4 hours
|20 to 24 pounds
|4 3/4 to 5 1/4 hours
Use a food thermometer to check the internal temperature of the turkey.
A whole turkey is safe cooked to a minimum internal temperature of 165 °F throughout the bird. Check the internal temperature in the innermost part of the thigh and wing and the thickest part of the breast. All turkey meat, including any that remains pink, is safe to eat as soon as all parts reach at least 165 °F. The stuffing should reach 165 °F, whether cooked inside the bird or in a separate dish. When turkey is removed from the oven, let it stand 20 minutes. Remove stuffing and carve turkey.
Storing Leftovers
Cut the turkey into small pieces; refrigerate stuffing and turkey separately in shallow containers within 2 hours of cooking. Use leftover turkey and stuffing within 3-4 days or freeze these foods. Reheat thoroughly to a temperature of 165 °F or until hot and steaming.

Tongue Devil for Tabletop RPGs like Dungeons and Dragons, wargames and collecting alike. Printed in high quality resin in small scale (up-to 54mm), NOTE 70mm and above will be printed in PLA not resin!
D&D Variants are generally scaled by their base size however if they have weapons or limbs that stick out massively they may be scaled to better fit into their area of control.
28/32/40/54/70/92/135mm are scaled based on their eye level, similar to how figures are scaled in Pathfinder, Warhammer etc.
If you wish for exact sizes or want us to scale to a certain size feel free to message us!
Beautifully sculpted by Rocket Pig Games (https://www.instagram.com/rocketpiggames/) of whom we are a licensed seller.
This listing is for an unpainted highly detailed miniature. Ready to prime and paint.
The Resin options have had their supports removed and while great care has been taken to remove all supports, prints can sometimes have small marks or holds like all miniatures which may require a bit of sanding and cleaning.
The PLA options have been 3D printed with zero supports so should have no noticeable marks or blemishes, while layer lines may be slightly visible a few coat of prime should hide these almost completely.
If you would like this model in a different size/scale please contact us and we will endeavour to see what we can do

- You need to download the lab2 files to the memory card in your Satellite CCRMA kit.
- If you are able to share your internet connection with you kit (see lab 1 -- this won't work if you have OS X 10.7 on your laptop), then you can simply type the following command into the Terminal after you are logged into your kit to download the lab directly:
wget https://ccrma.stanford.edu/courses/250a/labs/lab2.zip
- You can first download the archived files to your laptop by clicking here: [1], and then you can install and setup CyberDuck as shown in class and use it to copy lab2.zip to your kit. (Alternatively, if you are a power user, you can try to share your laptop's Internet connection with the kit and then use the wget command for the URL https://ccrma.stanford.edu/courses/250a/labs/lab2.zip
- Extract the ZIP file by typing "lab2.zip".
Prepare Arduino
- Now see which devices are attached to Linux by running the command following command. They will appear the be files. Wow, there are so many!
ls /dev
- To list only the serial interface devices type
ls /dev/tty*
- Now use the retractable USB cable to plug the Arduino into one of the USB ports of the Beagle Board. As the Arduino powers up, you should see some lights come on.
- Now run
ls /dev/tty*
again, and you should now see the new device /dev/ttyUSB0 appear also, which represents the Arduino Nano.
Troubleshooting: If you do not see /dev/ttyUSB0, then try rebooting using sudo reboot to see if that fixes this problem. (If you reboot, this will take about 45 seconds, and you will have to login again using ssh. If that doesn't work, come talk to us. If you are a Linux pro, you can try to debug the problem yourself by typing dmesg and looking at the result.)
- The next step is to install some simple firmware onto the Arduino so that it knows what we want it to do. Start the Arduino software in the terminal by typing
arduino &
- Open StandardFirmata from the Arduino software pull-down menus File|Examples|Firmata. Look at the program. This is what will control the Arduino.
- Select Arduino Nano w/ ATMega328 under Tools->Board and /dev/ttyUSB0 under Tools->Serial Port. Then hit the Play button to verify and compile the program.
- Upload the Firmata firmware to your Arduino Nano using upload button, the fourth square button from the left (the one with the sideways arrow). If you watch the RX and TX lights on the Arduino carefully, you will "see" the data flow over the serial USB link into the Arduino as the firmware is uploaded.
- Close the Arduino program by closing all of the Arduino windows. (This is important because it frees up the USB serial port so that Pd can talk to the Arduino board later. Pd and the Arduino software will not share the Arduino Nano device at the same time.)
Routing Power On The Breadboard
- When changing the circuit on the breadboard, it is a good idea to unplug the USB cable from the Arduino, so unplug it for now.
- Remind yourself about how the sockets on the breadboard are wired together:
- Now connect jumper wires as shown in the image below so that the upper and lower long columns can serve as a power supply for your future circuits.
- Connect a short jumper from row 19 on the left (which connects to the GND pin of the Arduino) to the blue column.
- Connect a short jumper from row 19 on the right (which connects to the 5V pin of the Arduino) to the red column.
- Finally, use two longer jumpers to connect together the blue columns and the red columns as shown below:
- Check your wires now to make sure that you did it correctly!
- Now plug the USB cable back into the Arduino. You should see the blue light come back on on the Arduino. (If you don't, you have a short circuit! In other words, somehow you connected the wires together incorrectly, effectively connecting the 5V and the GND pins of the Arduino together. Unplug the USB cable again immediately and fix the circuit! Short circuits are big no-nos because they can (and often do!) destroy the Arduino. This is why we recommend unplugging the USB cable while you are changing your circuit.)
Buttons, Switches and LEDs
- Build the circuit that is detailed in the following figure. Use components and jumpers to construct your circuits on the solderless bread-board. Here's how to wire a simple 2-resistor circuit on the solderless bread-board (for example R1 = 10K, R2 = 10K):
Use the voltage divider equation to calculate hypothetically what A0 should be.
Optional: Use the digital multimeter to check the voltage at A0. Set it to the direct current voltage "DVC" scale at 20V. On the multimeter, connect the black probe to COM and the red probe to V-Ohm-mA. Connect the other end of the black probe to ground and the red probe to the A0 wire. Also optional: Use the digital multimeter to find out what the "5V" supply actually is.
Build the Button and LED Circuit
We'll start our tutorial with three simple light circuits.
- In the first one, the LED is permanently on.
- In the second, the LED only lights up when a button is pressed and a circuit is completed.
- In the third example, we'll replace the manual switch with an Arduino pin (set to output mode), so we can control the LED from our program.
Power a LED (always on)
Build the following circuit on your breadboard. Use a 220 Ohm resistor (red red brown gold -- see this page about resistor color codes).
Because the LED is a diode, it has a set voltage drop across the leads; exceeding this causes heat to build up and the LED to fail prematurely. So! It is always important to have a resistor in series with the LED.
Also, another consequence of the LED being a diode is that it has directionality. The longer lead, the anode, should be connected towards power; the shorter, cathode, should be connected towards ground. (In the photo, the longer lead has a bent "knee.")
Make a light switch
Next, we'll insert a switch into the circuit. The momentary switches in your kit are "normal open", meaning that the circuit is interrupted in the idle state, when the switch is not pressed. Pressing the switch closes the circuit until you let go again.
Use a multimeter to see what happens to the voltage on either side of the LED when you press the switch.
Toggling LED with Pd
In the third example, we'll replace the manual switch with an Arduino pin (set to output mode), so we can control the LED from our program. The safe way to do this is to let the Arduino pin sink current - if we toggle the pin low, it acts as ground and current flows through the resistor and the LED as it did in the previous examples. When we take the pin high, to 5V, there is no potential difference and no current flows - the LED stays off.
- Open the arduinoLab.pd patch, which should be in the directory ~/lab2/250a_pduino-0.5.
- First look in the pd message window. Probably you will observe some errors.
- To get pd to connect properly to the Arduino Nano, you need to correctly select the serial port # (see the upper left-hand portion of the patch). This functionality allows you to address multiple Arduino Nano's connected at the same time. Right now we only have one. Try selecting different serial port #'s until you see a message like "[comport] opened serial line device 4 (/dev/ttyUSB0)."
- Verify now that communication with the Arduino Nano is working by turning on and off digital output 13. This pin is wired directly to an orange LED on the Arduino, so you can easily "see" the state of the pin.
- Go to the "digital pin data direction" pane and set pin 2 to output.
- Then go back to the "digital outputs" pane. When you click on the checkbox for digital pin 2, the state of the LED should change (on vs. off).
Optional: Try changing your patch so the light stays on when you press the mouse button, and stays off when you press it again. After that, change your patch so the light blinks on/off. Then, have your patch button switch the light between on and blinking.
We've used code to trigger output - what about the other direction, sensing physical input in code? Just as easy. Here is a simple switch circuit:
When the switch is open, the Arduino pin (set to input mode) is pulled to 5V - in software, we'll read Arduino.HIGH. When the switch is closed, the voltage at the Arduino pin falls to 0V - in software, we'll read Arduino.LOW. The pull-up resistor is used to limit the current going through the circuit. In software, we can check the value of the pin and switch between graphics accordingly.
- Setup the circuit and connect it to digital pin 4 (D4).
- Although the "digital pin data direction" in the pd patch shows that D4 is set to input by default, actually it is not! To change this, first set D4 to output and then change it back to input.
- Then look at the "digital input readings" pane while you press the button. But you will notice that the pin 4 reading does not change!
- This is because the corresponding digital input port needs to be enabled. In other words, even if you set a pin to input, you need to also enable the inputs for that port. Each port is mapped to eight pins. Because pin D4 is part of the first eight pins, you should enable port zero in the "enable digital input ports" pane.
- Now when you press the button, you should see the digital pin 4 reading change in the "digital input readings" pane.
Fading LED (Optional)
What about those "breathing" LEDs on Mac Powerbooks? The fading from bright to dim and back is done using pulse-width modulation (PWM). In essence, the LED is toggled on and off rapidly, say 1000 times a second, faster than your eye can follow. The percentage of time the LED is on (the duty) controls the perceived brightness. To control an LED using PWM, you'll have to connect it to one of the pins that support PWM output - 9, 10 or 11 on the Arduino. Then write a patch that cycles the PWM values.
For instance, for a single LED connected to pin D9:
- Connect the LED to pin D9 of the Arduino using the usual circuit.
- In ArduinoLab.pd, set pin D9 to pwm in the "digital pin data direction" pane.
- In the pane for "pwm/servo outputs," choose pin 9.
- Pull the "analog_output" horizontal slider back and forth and watch the LED get brighter and dimmer.
- Fun extension: Get an RGB (red/green/blue) LED, connect it to digital pins 9, 10, and 11, and adjust the brightness of the three color components to cycle the LED through a rainbow of colors!
Using Analog Sensors
Now we will work with the continuous input values provided by analog sensors - potentiometers, accelerometers, distance rangers, etc.
Make a Light Dimmer
In this example we'll build a light dimmer: a knob connected to a light so that when you turn the knob, the light increases or decreases in brightness. We'll use a potentiometer. The potentiometer has three terminals - the resistance between the first and the third terminal is constant (10k Ohms in our case). The resistance between terminals 1 and 2 (and between 2 and 3) varies as you turn the shaft of the potentiometer. If you apply 5V to terminal 1, connect terminal 3 to Ground, you will get a continuously varying voltage at terminal 2 as you turn the shaft (Why that is the case will become clearer once you've learned about voltage dividers further below).
- Connect the middle pin of the potentiometer to analog input 0, the other two to +5V and ground.
- Through a 220Ohm resistor, connect an LED to pin 9(anode or long side to resistor, cathode to pin 9)
- In the ArduinoLab patch, press the "Light Dimmer" button to preset the outputs properly. The patch expects you to connect the LED to digital pin 9 (D9) and the potentiometer to analog pin 0 (A0). Use the PWM controls under output controls in the ArduinoLab patch to control the lightness and dimness of the LED.
- Optional: hook up two LEDs, one red one green. as you turn in one direction, red gets brighter; in the other, green gets brighter. In the middle, both are off.
Voltage Dividers
In your kit, the potentiometer, IR distance ranger, and accelerometer are especially easy to work with since they directly output a changing voltage that can be read by one of Arduino's analog input pins.
Other sensors don't give you a varying output voltage per se, but instead change their resistance. Examples in your kit are the force sensitive resistor (FSR) and the bend or flex sensor. It is easy to get a changing voltage based on a changing resistance through a voltage divider circuit (Wikipedia page). The idea is that you put two resistors in series between power and ground: one that changes resistance (your sensor), and one of a known, fixed resistance. At the point in between the two resistors, you can measure how much the voltage has dropped through the first resistor. This value changes as the ratio of resistances between variable and fixed resistors change. More formally:
- potentiometer:
- force-sensitive resistor (FSR):
Try both circuits. Test the resistance range of your sensor. If you want 2.5 volts to be the middle, make the comparison resistor (33k in the diagram) the "average" value of the FSR's resistance. Test this with a multimeter.
- Bend Sensor
Thresholding with a Range Sensor (Optional)
Thresholding is the process of turning continuous data into a discrete yes/no decision.
To learn about thresholding, we'll connect the IR range sensor. The circuit is trivial: just connect red to 5V, black to ground, and yellow to analog input A0.
Take a look at the data the sensor returns with sensor_graph_02 - when the field of view of the sensor is clear (no obstacle - point it at the ceiling), it returns a low voltage. Move your hand high over the sensor, then start lowering it - you should see the output voltage rise, until you are about 4" away. The sensor has a range of operation of 4"-30".
Let's do something useful with that data. Imagine a smart cookie jar that reminds you not to snack in between meals. We could put an IR ranger into the lid. Whenever a hand comes too close, our program could play a warning sound or flash a warning light. Write a patch to manage this!
Tilt control with an Accelerometer (Optional)
In this example, we'll simulate the motion of a ball on a tilting plane in software and control the tilt through a sensor. Think of it as a first step to build your own electronic game of Labyrinth. The right sensor to use is an accelerometer. Accelerometers can report on both static and dynamic acceleration -- think of static acceleration as the angle the accelerometer is held with respect to the ground (the acceleration measured here is due to gravity). Dynamic acceleration occurs when you shake the sensor.
The accelerometer in your kit is a 3-axis, +/- 1.5-6g accelerometer sensor (1g is the acceleration due to gravity). You will have to solder on 0.1" header pins to fit this into the breadboard. The connections you need to make are Vin to 5V power from the Arduino , G to ground, and Xo, Yo & Zo to the first three analog input pins on the Arduino board. My default, the acceleration range is set to +/- 1.5g; you could solder on the gsel jumpers if you want less sensitive/greater range with +/- 6g.
Now, get a feel for the data the accelerometer provides. Use the Light Dimmer presets, which will track analog values on A0 and A1. Then pick up the Arduino+accelerometer board and tilt it in various directions. Start by holding it so that the accelerometer board is parallel to the ground. Find in which direction the X reading increases and decreases; do the same for the Y reading.
Next, change the PD patch so that you can also read the Z axis of the accelerometer.
Putting It All Together
- Create a patch to make sounds based on button and sensor values from the Arduino. You can try to adapt your patches from Lab 1, or come up with a new patch.
- Try to make a simple musical interaction. Think about music -
- does it have dynamics?
- can you turn the sound off?
- can it be expressive?
- Make a video showing your interaction! Narrate over the video to explain your design. Post your video on the Music 250a Lab Video Wiki.

The most successful football clubs from Europe's top four leagues revealed – ranked by total trophies won
Real Madrid's 2016 Champions League final victory marked the club's record 11th success in the European Cup.
It's Real's second Champions League win in the past three seasons, as they succeed rivals Barcelona as European champions.
But Real have claimed just one Spanish league title since 2008, while Barca have won six in that time, and the Catalan club scooped the domestic double this season.
So which club is Europe's most successful in terms of trophies won?
Elsewhere around Europe this season, Bayern Munich claimed the German league and cup double, while Juventus did likewise in Italy.
In England, Manchester United won their first major honour since Sir Alex Ferguson's retirement, lifting the FA Cup, but can any of these clubs claim to be the most successful in Europe?
We wanted to know which club has won the most trophies in European football.
It's not exactly a straightforward question to answer, because opinions differ over what should constitute a trophy.
For example, by most people's assumptions Arsenal failed to win a trophy in the season just passed, but the Gunners actually lifted the Community Shield last August, so does that success go on their honours list?
In the past, one-off contests such as the Shield have been dismissed when it comes to trophy tallies, but these events - often known as 'Super Cups' - appear to be growing in prestige across the continent.
For the purposes of simply counting the number of trophies won, we have included such competitions, although debate will continue to rage as to their relative merits.
Additionally, we have restricted our ranking to clubs from the top four league competitions in Europe: England, Spain, Germany and Italy. These countries are historically the most dominant in European competition and, therefore, we have adjudged their domestic competitions to be the toughest to win.
If we left it open to clubs from any European league, the result would see Scotland's Rangers come out on top, with Northern Ireland's Linfield in second and Scotland's Celtic in third. But we are more interested in finding out who's the cream of the cream.
So take a look at the ranking above to see which clubs feature and let us know your thoughts by leaving a comment below.
Competitions included: All UEFA competitions bar the Intertoto Cup (but including the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup), the Intercontinental Cup, the FIFA Club World Cup, domestic top division titles, main domestic cups and League Cups (now defunct in Germany and Spain and never competed for in Italy, but held since the 1960s in England), and domestic 'Super Cups' (known in England as the Community Shield).
All statistics correct on 29 May 2016.

USES: This medication is used to treat a variety of skin conditions (e.g., psoriasis, eczema, dermatitis, allergies, rash). Fluocinonide reduces the swelling, itching, and redness that can occur in these types of conditions. It also can heal the rough, scaly patches on the skin seen with psoriasis. This medication is a very strong (super-high-potency) corticosteroid.
Indications : plaque psoriasis, skin inflammation, atopic dermatitis
SIDE EFFECTS: Burning, stinging, itching, dryness, or redness may occur when this medication is first applied to the skin. This should disappear in a few days as your body adjusts to the medication. If any of these effects persist or worsen, notify your doctor or pharmacist promptly. Remember that this medication has been prescribed because your doctor has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Many people using this medication do not have serious side effects. Tell your doctor if any of these unlikely but serious side effects occur: stretch marks, skin thinning/discoloration, acne, extreme/unwanted hair growth, "hair bumps" (folliculitis). Skin infections can become worse when this medication is used. Notify your doctor promptly if redness, swelling, or irritation does not improve. Rarely, it is possible this medication will be absorbed from the skin into the bloodstream. This can lead to side effects of too much corticosteroid. These side effects are more likely in children, and in people who use this medication for a long time or over large areas of the skin. Tell your doctor right away if any of the following side effects occur: unusual/extreme tiredness, weight loss, headache, swelling ankles/feet, increased thirst/urination, vision problems. A very serious allergic reaction to this drug is rare. However, seek immediate medical attention if you notice any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, including: rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, trouble breathing. This is not a complete list of possible side effects. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist. In the US - Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or at www.fda.gov/medwatch. In Canada - Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to Health Canada at 1-866-234-2345.
HOW TO USE: Use this medication on the skin only. Do not use it on the face, groin, or underarms unless directed to do so by your doctor. Before applying the medication, clean and dry the affected area. Apply a thin film of the medication to the affected area and gently rub in, once daily if treating eczema or 1-2 times daily if treating psoriasis. If treating other skin conditions, apply this medication 1-2 times daily or as directed by your doctor. Do not wrap, cover, or bandage the area unless directed to do so by your doctor. After applying the medication, wash your hands unless you are using this medication to treat the hands. If applying this medication near the eyes, avoid getting it in the eyes as this may worsen or cause glaucoma. Also avoid getting this medication in the nose or mouth. If you get the medication in these areas, rinse with plenty of water. Use this medication only for the condition prescribed. Do not use it for longer than 2 weeks in a row or use more than 60 grams per week unless directed to do so by your doctor. Inform your doctor if your condition persists or worsens after 2 weeks.
PRECAUTIONS: Before using fluocinonide, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are allergic to it; or to other corticosteroids (e.g., hydrocortisone, prednisone); or if you have any other allergies. This product may contain inactive ingredients, which can cause allergic reactions or other problems. Talk to your pharmacist for more details. Before using this medication, tell your doctor or pharmacist your medical history, especially of: poor blood circulation, immune system problems, certain skin conditions (rosacea, perioral dermatitis). Do not use if there is an infection or sore present in the area to be treated. Rarely, using corticosteroid medications for a long time or over large areas of skin can make it more difficult for your body to respond to physical stress. Before having surgery or emergency treatment, or if you get a serious illness/injury, tell your doctor or dentist that you are using this medication or have used this medication within the past few months. Though it is unlikely, this medication may temporarily slow down a child's growth if used for a long time. See the doctor regularly so your child's height can be checked. During pregnancy, this medication should be used only when clearly needed. Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor. It is not known whether this drug passes into breast milk when applied to the skin. Similar medications pass into breast milk when taken by mouth. Consult your doctor before breast-feeding.
DRUG INTERACTIONS: Your doctor or pharmacist may already be aware of any possible drug interactions and may be monitoring you for them. Do not start, stop, or change the dosage of any medicine before checking with your doctor or pharmacist first. Before using this medication, tell your doctor or pharmacist of all prescription and nonprescription/herbal products you may use, especially of: corticosteroids taken by mouth (e.g., prednisone), drugs that lower the immune system (e.g., cyclosporine). This document does not contain all possible interactions. Before using this product, tell your doctor or pharmacist of all the products you use. Keep a list of all your medications with you, and share the list with your doctor and pharmacist.
OVERDOSE: This medicine may be harmful if swallowed. If someone has overdosed and has serious symptoms such as passing out or trouble breathing, call 911.
