at kinaton x c aw 3d 1881 the inception of the american people differs from ihat of all their contempora ries the existing nations of europe grew up from barbarous tribes tliey wero acorns planted and springing from the earth as tender shoots grew slowly amid tlie dangers of unprotected immaturity i into tall and self-reliant positions in the world's forest hy tedious and painful degrees they attained to their present strength and created their civilization ! the american colonies on the contrary i were transported as half-grown thrifty | saplings into the fertile soil of this new ; con l incut where they took root so quick - ! ly and kindly that their natural growth was accelerated mther than interrupted l the process they brought with thein the learning arts sciences and civiliza tion such as they were of the parent soil they passed through no infancy no child hood such as the acorn-planted nations endured : and unless we speak by com parison with themselves it may be said they had no growth no primitive uo he roic age certainly they had no mythic age and no miraculous tabic adorns or disgraces iheir origin it cannot be said of them that any wolf suckled their god begotten founders as i.s said of borne or i that they came ot an infamous conjunc tion between the outcast scythian witches ! and the iufcmal fiends as was the boast i of the ilu us more simple and more glo i lions far was the nativity of the colon of north carolina no people who ever occupied the earth had a more honorable or illustrious pareu ; tage she was conceived iu the brain of the ( most remarkable and accomplished man j of his age of our english speaking race she was born of two of the noblest and highest passions that animate the human heart patriotism and religion sir wal ter raleigh in fitting out his expedition | which lauded ou roanoke island in 13'ai was actuated chiefly by the desire of strengthening his country in its terrible contest with the spaniards who threat ened the domination oi thn world and of ! propagating what seemed to him that purer lonn of the christian religion i which was then struggling for a looting upon the earth ; and however much the baser dross of wild adventure and per sonal gaiu may have adult rated these j nobler motives with raleigh and his as i socio tes there can be no doubt that the higher predominated the men them selves were of the best yeomanry and gentry of old england hardy adventur | ers pious much enduring faithful and l brave ; and they were filled with the new j principles which were then stirring all j europe with the thirst for civil and reli gious liberty raleigh has perhaps no superior in british annals take him all | in all he was at once a soldier states man historian scientist navigator md poet and whilst there were doubtless during that gnat age of elizabeth sol diets as brave and skillful statesmen as profound and wise historians as fluent and accurate navigators as bold scien tific men as learned and poets who sang us sweetly as he yet that island so rich in the genius of its children did not theu possess and has never since possessed a man who combined all these capacities with so much of excellence in each such were the men and such their lea i'it whom we claim as our founders virginia and north carolina justly avow lhal they are the offspring of these dar ing and patriotic spirits that they were conceived and brought fourth by the greatest men ofa great age fin ther into this early story of ours i do not propose to go of the renewal and perishing of raleigh's colonics on roanoke of the subsequent stream that pouted into john smith's settlement on the james and finally overflowed into north carolina through ihirunt _ neck ofthe english who came into the cape fear country of clarendon of the swiss under dcgniffenreid of the germans lutherans and moravians scotch high landers scotch-irish and huguenots — all of whom in time came to compose the early population of our state of these i cannot speak nor cau 1 tell at such a time as this of their slow and steady growth of their deadly struggle with sav ages their conquest over the forest the mountains tho rivers and sea all of which had to be subdued before comfort and civilization were assured if i had the time aud the learning a much more interesting and instructive theme for me would be the history of their efforts to work out the problem of self-government and to frame a system of laws suited to secure the freedom and promote the wel fare and happiness of a people iti the wil derness no portion of human history so well deserves the study of those who value lhe well being of race as this and no other state in this grand constellation of free commonwealths furnishes more serious and instructive lessons on the science of building law upon the basis of actual experience and making govern 1 nu ■,: nervously responsive to the popu lar wants than does north carolina our stmy will show beyond any doubt th it a people's laws must lie so founded and that no theoretical sjatems however learnedly conceived or elaborately plann ed can be made to secure the public pros perity the experiment made by the lords j proprietors with the fundamental con ! btitutiona for the government of carolina is fall of testimony in this behalf eu ! rope perhaps claimed no blighter genius i than john locke their author he gave | to his task the profoundest learning and l severest meditation he laid the ground work of an ideal government aud to au j human appearances laid it well it was j intended to operated in a virgin land ! with no old systems or old prejudices to j clash with its provisions it was so tried aud no invention of mau ever proved a more signal failure he did not know could uot know either what was wanted : by or adapted to distant people whom he had never seen he forgot or was igno i rant of the fact that governments if uu forced by extraneous circumstances ' grow and develop naturally lifting them selves to a people as the skiu of animal fits itself to the increasing size of its bones and muscles tbe ideal specula tion of the scholar did not meet the wants ofthe unlearned settlers in the north carolina forest and after a fair trial they east it out as unfit one thing leads to another like thing so it came to pass that the work of other •■and more practical men than john locke j began to be subjected to the same scroti ! ny and share the same fate that he did the opinion soon came to prevail that nieii so far distant as the british parlia ment could not rightly understand to niiike laws for the squatters in our forest and that british ministers could not always know best when to approve or disapprove of such as the colonists made for themselves in short they had al | ready discovered the virtues of home rule i and so they began to look back for those j ancient rights and liberties which had been contended for a foretime by the men of their blood in each ofthese they found the germ of a great principle to whieh as british freemen they believed themselves entitled and the extension and application of which to these colonics would lie for tlieir healing tncy learn ed from magna charta to hate the domi nation of strangers and favorites and also from that instrument and from the history of parliament all the way back to the witcnagemote or assembly of the wise men of the saxons that the power to impose taxes can rightfully be conferr ed only by those who impose i hem no scutage or aid shall be imposed in our kingdom conceded king john at kunny nicde unless by the common council of our kingdom — no freeman shall be taken or imprisoned or disseized or out lawed or banished or any ways destroy ed * * • * * unless by the legal judgment of his peers or unless by the law of the land he says again in the xlyl article they learned also of the gnat writ by which men are rescued from illegal imprisonment of tne unlaw ful tyranny ol quartering soldiers in pri vate houses and the oppression of deny ing men a trial by their peers of the vic inage and of substituting therefor mili tary courts and other extraordinary t ri buuals all of theso things and many more of like nature began t be talked over and dwelt upon in the cabin homes of north carolina a century and a half ago when the times began to dawn towards the morning of revolution our sturdy fa ther's began to wonder how it was that what was good for england so good as to bo worth the shedding of so much blood was not also good for her distant children ; and to ask how tli english people could make such struggles to free themselves from particular species of despotism and then turning about inflict those very wrongs upon their owu off spring euglaud was in fact defying a great political truth so often yet so un availiugly taught by history — that a free people cannot inflict slavery ou their de pendent communities without sapping the foundations of their own freedom ; that such subject communities can indeed only be kept contentedly as integral por tions of an empire when permitted to share fully the privileges and intitutions of the dominant state the great seminal principles which constituted the basis of british freedom and prosperity had been denied these american colonies with a strange want of logic the brit ish people couteuded that none of their race were entitled to self-government ex cept those who dwelt iu the parent isle that these principles were the apt and natural methods of free government is i proven by tlie universal tendency of the j people to apply them and the denial of them produced at once an angry discus sion this discussion was one of the most remarkable known to political history both iu methods and results never before the era of universal priul : ing and the postoffice nor perhaps since ; have the great masses of the people been ! made so thoroughly acquainted with the principles of government and the issues upou which their liberties depended and never was there a people in such circum stances supplied with nn abler more zealous and more patriotic band of lead ers the great burke has said that a sacred veil should be thrown over the beginnings of government how far is r___h_k m—k ■_——*— bi ______________ this first remark from beitig applicable to the early history of our state there is nothing connected with tfiat story in which we can indulge a greater pride than the fact apparent to e*ery one that the logic of onr forefather was as tri umphant as their arms 1 no man can read the history of that period which im mediately preceded the ou_hreak of hos tilities in north carolina^and study the political literature of that day without a feeling of surprise and the profoundest admiration for the ability aud learning ' displayed in behalf of tiie patriot cause i the addresses argument phaniplets | essays letters c of samuel johnson james iredell joseph hew william i hooper morris moore cornelius harnett ; and many others will stand comparison ! not only with the public men of any oth er colony bnt with tho leaders of any | other community of onr blood strug gling foi political rights and independence ! there is a force clearness logic aud ac j curate acquaintance with history as well as familiarity with principles of law and all current topics pervading them : that we are not only not prepared to find in that ago but are scarcely able to equal in this with all of its advancement prominent iu this brilliant array of statesmen and soldiers who then control j led the destinies of north carolina — probably his many-sided qualities con . sideied the most prominent — was tho ! man to whose memory we honor this day j richard caswell he was one of the most remarkable men who figured in that exciting period he was born iu the state of maryland on the 3d day of august 1729 just one hundred aud fifty-two years ago this day i have | not been able to learn in what part of the ' state of maryland was his birthplace nor have i been able to learn anything con cerning his family more than that his father was a merchant who failing in business young caswell was at an early age thrown upon his own resources the effect of this misfortune to the f ; ther proved it seems anything but a misfortune to the sou : it served but to ; give us another instance of tiie uses of ad i versify iu the development of genius j shielded no longer by the providence and : wealth of his father the genuine mau j hood of the youth was brought out ob j raining letters of introduction from the ' governor of his native state at the ten der age of seventeen years caswell boldly set out southward to seek hi fortune iu those days there was no going west ! the direction now universally taken by adventurous youth : the french claim to all that vast region beyond the iii ue ridge and the fierce hostility of the in dians incited by freuch influence eftect ualiy barred that way to fortune arriv ing in north carolina he presented his letters to the royal governor johnson i and by his aid obtained a small place in one of departments of government how he conducted himsell here and the capac ity for business he displayed history does not inform us but we may inter that his conduct was eminently satisfactory to his superiors frmn the fact that about the period of his majority he was made a deputy surveyor of the colony then an office of considerable importance again in 1753 he was by appointment of the royal government made clerk of orange county court his appointment gave signal evidence of his ability aud integrity senator vance then reviewed the his tory of gov caswell at much length paying the highest compliments to tho virtues of that noble man virtues which shone always with a steady light and won for him the love and regard and re spect not only of the people of his own day and generation but of us his descen dants the part gov caswell took in securing the independence of the state and the colonics was pictured to the audience iu graphic language the part taken in this glorious work by the ashes the kenans the hoopers the moores the cas wells the lillingions the harnetts and others was described the descrip tion of the battle of moore's creek was vigorous the results of that battle and its influence on the struggle were also described the part taken by north car olina in the war of the revolution with the privations endured the sacrifices made and the heroic efforts made by them all were given the attention of the speaker who went on to say that north carolina furnished by far the largest contingent in all the continental armies operating in the south but historians of other states have but too often appropriated for their own troops the honors due to north car olina every north carolinian can right here learn a lesson let us record our deed and let not other historians per vert these facts the important part that gov caswell took iu the civil affairs of the state was described at great length and with nn elaboration of detail his social quali ties were of the highest order he was for years grand master of masons in every field in every department our people loved to honor and trust him at all times in all places ho did his duty and showed his fidelity to his state death found him at tlie post of duty for he was stricken in harness ho wan in truth the foroni'^t figure jn our mate during the revolution this the people said again and agaiu these proceedings to-day mark an era in our state this is the first raonnment or stone of remeniberance ever erected to any son ef our state aud tho burden and the expenses have borne by the good aud patriotic citizens of lenoir the neg lect of providing monuments or memoii als of our public men the speaker con demned in vigiorous terms as at once un wise and unpatriotic if we are not proud for ourselves others will not be proud of us this backwardness is not modesty wo should maguify these services to the state and commemorate them to-day said the speaker we have done a good work let us carry that work forward then he thanked the audience and closed a choir of ladies and gentlemen of kin ston then ang the old north state the great audience joined heartily in this gov jarvis was then introduced by by mr cox and made a ringing address he an noticed his regret at the failure to have the military parade he announced that the ceremony of uuveilging would then take place the choir then sang the star spangled bauuer and the

countries of europe and • america a reporter of the washington post had an interview with ex-senator howe recently returned from the paris monetary conference mr howe said that although no direct re sults had been reached the confer ence had been of value in that it had brought the question of bi-metalism prominently before the public and ex cited public interest in it as to the attitude of the conference he said : the belgian representative was there as a strong monometalist ; go also were the representatives of sweden norway and switzerland the com missioners representing russia aus tria italy and spain inclined strong ly to bi-metalism the attitude of great britain was the principal ob stacle we had to contend with her representatives were in favor of the double standard but were inhibited from committing the nation to it the ministry opposed bi-metalism and they did it not because they do not favor the double standard or because they want to keep silver otitof thecoin age but because they have other im portant business before them and feci that they can put the coinage question off to some future day the matter however has been the subject of dis cussion in the financial and commer cial circles in great britain and a strong sentiment has beeu found in favor of bi-metalism with regard to germany con tinued mr howe her representa tives pointed to the action taken by '' her in 1873 in adopting the single gold standard and said thev did not see any necessity for impeaching the propriety of that move still they are not opposed to silver and are on ly waiting for england if the lat ter country comes to adopt the dou ble standard they will join with her willingly nud gladly mr howe stated further that the gold coin held in reserve by the bank of france was even less than one third ofthe entire metalie reserve as had been stated ; also that the pros pects of italy's placing her new loan on which she proposed to resume spe cie payments were good as to the probability ofa general return ofthe nations to the double or bi-mctalic standard mr howe ex pressed himself very hopeful his attention being called to an opinion expressed soon after the last moneta

== Minimizing Downtime ==
Revision as of 23:48, 14 August 2009
Every once in a while, we need to apply mass upgrades to our servers for various security and other upgrades.
Contact Information
Owner: Fedora Infrastructure Team
Contact: #fedora-admin, sysadmin-main, firstname.lastname@example.com
Location: Phoenix
Servers: all
Purpose: Apply kernel/other upgrades to all of our servers
- Follow the Outage Infrastructure SOP and send advance notification to fedora-infrastructure-list and fedora-devel-announce. Try to schedule the update at a time when many admins are around to help/watch for problems.
- Plan an order for rebooting the machines considering two factors:
- Location of systems on the xen clusters. [You will normally reboot all systems on a cluster together.
- Impact of systems going down on other services, operations and users. Thus since the database servers and nfs servers are the backbone of many other systems, they and systems that are on the same xen boxes would be rebooted before other boxes.
- To aid in organizing a mass upgrade/reboot with many people helping, it may help to create a checklist of machines in a gobby document.
- Switch DNS to point to PHX only in advance. This allows the external proxy servers to be rebooted without causing downtime.
- Schedule downtime in nagios
- Make doubly sure that various app owners are aware of the reboots
Any updates that can be tested in staging or a pre-production environment should be tested there first. Including new kernels, updates to core database applications / libraries. Web applications, libraries, etc.
Special Considerations
While this may not be a complete list, here are some special things that must be taken into account before rebooting certain systems:
Before the following machines are rebooted, all koji builders should be disabled and all running jobs allowed to complete:
- db3
- nfs1
- kojipkgs1
The following machines need services to be shutdown manually before they are rebooted:
- noc1 (tell zodbot to quit first)
The following machines require post-boot actions (mostly entering passphrases). Make sure admins that have the passphrases are on hand for the reboot:
- app1 (Transifex SSH passphrase post-boot, see the Translations Infrastructure SOP)
- backup2 (LUKS passphrase on boot)
- sign-bridge1 (NSS passphrase for sigul bridge service)
- noc1 (start zodbot, see the Zodbot Infrastructure SOP)
Minimizing Downtime
To minimize downtime as much as possible, the following main servers (and thus their respective xen hosts) should probably be rebooted first. Note that the xen servers may change from update to update.
- db1
- db2
- db3
- nfs1
- cvs1
- proxy2 (the proxy server for all PHX machines)
- kojipkgs1
- secondary1
- fas1 (minor, only absolutely needed for certificate generation)
- torrent1
- hosted1
- people1
When rebooting servers, try to avoid having all of the machines in any of these groups down at the same time.
- proxy1, proxy2
- app1, app2, app3, app4
- fas1, fas2
- memcached1, memcached2,
- bastion1, bastion2 (these use heartbeat, but they will probably cause VPN blips on rebooting)
- koji1, koji2 (also on heartbeat)
- ns1, ns2
External xen hosts can generally be done at any time during this, with the exception of the main machines listed above.
Doing the upgrade
If possible, system upgrades should be done in advance of the reboot (with relevant testing of new packages on staging). To do the upgrades, make sure that the Infrastructure RHEL repo is updated as necessary to pull in the new packages (Infrastructure Yum Repo SOP)
SSH to each machine in the list and perform the upgrades, pinging people as necessary if you are unsure about any packages:
yum clean metadata yum update # make sure to review the list of updates and ask if you think it might break something
Doing the reboot
In the order determined above, reboots will usually be grouped by the xen hosts that the servers are on. For each xen host, login to each guest and shut it down:
xm console guestname # and login w # ping any logged on people if they're around so they don't get kicked off unexpectedly grep default /etc/grub.conf # make sure that the kernel you upgraded to will be the one rebooted. shutdown -h now
This is also a good time to double check that each xen guest has a proper symlink in /etc/xen/auto if it should be started automatically. When the guests are done, double check that no guests are running, then reboot the xen host.
- Make sure that everything's running fine
- Reenable nagios notification as needed
- Make sure to perform any manual post-boot setup (such as loading SSH keys for transifex or entering passphrases for encrypted volumes)

WASHINGTON (AP) – The U.S. job market is proving sturdier than expected at a time when the economy is under pressure from Washington gridlock and the threat of government spending cuts.
Employers added 157,000 jobs in January, and hiring was much stronger at the end of last year than the government had previously estimated.
The Labor Department's estimated job gains for the final two months of 2012 – a period when the economy was being threatened by the fiscal cliff – rose from 161,000 to 247,000 for November and from 155,000 to 196,000 for December.
The mostly encouraging jobs report Friday included one negative sign: The unemployment rate rose to 7.9 percent from 7.8 percent in December. The rate is calculated from a survey of households, and more people in that survey said they were unemployed.
The monthly job gains are derived from a separate survey of employers.
The hiring picture over the past two years also looked stronger after the department's annual revisions. The revisions showed that employers added an average of roughly 180,000 jobs a month in 2012 and 2011. That was up from previous estimates of about 150,000.
Stocks surged immediately after trading began at 9:30 a.m. Eastern time, an hour after the jobs report was released. The Dow Jones industrial average jumped 130 points and briefly touched 14,000 for the first time in more than five years, before falling back.

A Leavenworth woman has been indicted on federal bank fraud charges, the U.S. attorney announced Thursday.
A Leavenworth woman has been indicted on federal bank fraud charges, the U.S. attorney announced Thursday.
Brenda Wood, 45, was indicted Wednesday on five counts of bank fraud, one count of theft from an employee benefit program, and four counts of willful violations of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, according to a news release from the office of Barry Grissom, U.S. attorney for Kansas.
The indictment alleges the crimes took place while Wood owned several businesses including one in Kansas City, Mo. ― Professional Cleaning and Innovative Building Services Inc. ― and three in Bonner Springs ― Action Real Estate Services LLC, G&W Investments LLC, and Riverview Crossings LLC.
The indictment alleges Wood obtained loans for herself and her companies through Farmers Bank in Overland Park by making false representations and submitting falsified documents to the bank, according to the release.
The indictment alleges she obtained a loan on behalf of Riverview Crossings to purchase property in Bonner Springs in part by forging the signature of a second mortgage holder releasing the deed.
Wood also is alleged to have submitted falsified invoices totaling more than $100,000 to support fraudulent draws on the Riverview Crossings loan.
She allegedly obtained a loan on behalf of PCI to buy property in Basehor, in which she fraudulently inflated the purchase price to make it appear the loan met the bank's loan-to-value ratio requirements, according to the release.
She also is accused of obtaining a $350,000 line of credit in part by fraudulently representing to the lender that her company, PCI, was awarded a contract to provide cleaning services at an Internal Revenue Service building in Kansas City, Mo. Her company was not a finalist for the contract.
The indictment also alleges Wood diverted more than $200,000 from an escrow account for PCI to her personal account.
It's also alleged she set up a 401(k) plan for PCI and embezzled more than $30,000 from the plan.
Wood also is accused of failing to file annual financial reports for the PCI 401(k) plan.
Farmer's Bank received $12 million from the U.S. Treasury's Troubled Asset Relief Program. In November 2012, the bank paid the U.S. Treasury approximately $11.4 million to redeem the funding, resulting in a shortfall of more than $500,000.
If convicted, Wood faces a maximum penalty of 30 years in federal prison and a fine of up to $1 million on each of the bank fraud charges, a maximum penalty of five years and a fine up to $250,000 on the charge of theft from an employee benefit program, and a maximum penalty of 10 years and a fine up to $250,000 on each count of violating ERISA, according to the release.
The Department of Labor, Office of Inspector General, the Special Investigator General for the Troubled Asset Relief Program and the FBI investigated. Assistant U.S. Attorney Jabari Wamble is prosecuting.

Turkish police fired teargas at a wheelchair basketball game after fights broke out between rival fans who also injured several athletes and trashed their wheelchairs.
Supporters of two of Istanbul's top teams, Galatasaray and Besiktas, started brawling at the game.
The violence escalated after small groups chanting offensive slogans carried the row to the sidelines of the basketball court, where they wrecked players' wheelchairs and ripped equipment to pieces.
Police used teargas and the game was cancelled.
It was the first time hooligan violence had wrecked a game for the disabled in Turkey.
The bitter rivalry among Istanbul's main teams, also including Fenerbahce, frequently turns violent in football derbies, where supporters are not allowed to attend away games to avoid clashes.

ECS A890GXM-A2 Motherboard Review
Elitegroup Computer Systems, better known as ECS, has been in the motherboard arena for a long time. We have seen a number of boards that date back to the Pentium era and beyond. ECS has always been known as the budget board designer, but things have been changing. The company has been putting more time, effort and research into its mainboards and it is beginning to really show. ECS brought its Black Series to us some time ago, which we have seen mature into a formidable opponent in the motherboard industry. With each change and improvement, the company is no longer taken lightly. I for one have been impressed with its mainboard offerings lately and was very excited when I had this particular board come across my desk. The Black Series boards are taking on a whole new shape with each release and I was eager to do this review. Today we are bringing a new competitor to the AMD arena with the ECS A890GXM-A2 mainboard.
The A890GXM-A2 is built around the strong, tried and true AMD 890GX chipset, which includes the AMD SB850 Southbridge. Not only does this pairing provide stability, but they also have the speed and features we need to stay ahead of the game. With features such as 140 watt CPU support, HyperTransport 3.0, and the ability to run DDR3 memory in dual channel up to 1800MHz when overclocked, you will not be held back when you are running this board in your computer. Take those base features and add in USB 3.0 SuperSpeed ports for up to 5Gb/s and SATA III for hard drive speeds up to 6.0Gb/s, and you might need some extra plugs for your thinning hair (editors note, lol!). If you are as excited as I am, then let's stop the yapping and take a dive into the review so we can get a firsthand look at the latest in the AMD ECS Black Series.
Closer Look:
ECS boards have been evolving to suit the gamer/enthusiast market and with those changes came the Black Series. The Black Series showed what ECS was capable of in its designs and in its stability. To show off this new series, ECS changed the color scheme not just with the board, but with the packaging as well. While keeping the same greenish design, the front of the A890GXM-A2 box contains all the product logos that went into this motherboard including AMD CPU support, ATI CrossfireX capabilities and the unique abilities of the system, such as eJiffy instant boot. On the back of the box, the support logos continue along with an image of the board itself and several of the top end features that are offered by the ECS A890GXM-A2. If you flip open the front cover, you may be surprised to find a glimpse of the actual board through a window, accompanied with a few of the power features, such as CPU O.C. and USB SuperSpeed support.
Removing the inner packaging from the box shows you the care that went into protecting your investment. On the top layer of the box is the motherboard itself, surrounded in a hard plastic shell. Underneath is a compartment that houses the accessories and documentation. Included with the motherboard is the I/O shield, video connection protectors for the back of the board, four SATA cables, an eSATA bracket, the driver CD, and the user guides.
Now that we have everything out of the box, we can take a better look at the layout of the motherboard.

CanadaHelps for Charities
At CanadaHelps, we believe every charity deserves the important advantages that online technologies and education can offer. As a charity serving charities, we play a critical role in the charitable sector.
Online Technology for Small and Medium-sized Charities
We provide online technology and fundraising tools at low, non-commercial rates – tools that many charities don't have the resources to invest in on their own. Our tools help charities work more efficiently and raise more funds – and that means more time and money to fulfill their missions. This levels the playing field between charities of all sizes; ensuring smaller charities don't fall behind.
Through our educational initiative, MyCharityConnects, we provide training programs and webinars to help charities further develop their online fundraising skills. Charities learn about fundraising, marketing and outreach, good governance, and using technology to connect with the people they serve, and the potential supporters of their work.
Our Reach
CanadaHelps serves charities located in every province and territory across Canada. Our charity partners play vital roles in their communities, nationally, and internationally to protect animals and the environment, and feed, clothe, educate, and care for people in need.
CanadaHelps for Donors
Giving to charity feels good. And when it's really easy, all you think about are the good causes you're supporting. Over one million Canadians have supported charities using CanadaHelps because we keep it simple. Here's how:
Find your favourite charities and discover new ones
CanadaHelps is your one-stop shop for supporting any registered Canadian charity. Easily search for a specific charity, discover new charities by browsing each category, or browse by campaign to learn about specific charitable needs.
Make Tax Time Easy
Receive an instant tax receipt with each donation made using CanadaHelps. When you open a free account, you have access to all of your charitable tax receipts anytime and you can save your payment information so you won't have to type it in every time you visit. You can even add the charities you support most often to your Favourites list so it's easy to give to them again.
Give your way
We know there is no one size fits all approach to giving, which is why we offer options. Give once or set up a monthly donation schedule; donate securities or mutual funds and avoid the capital gains tax; give a gift in honour or memory of a loved one; send Charity Gift Cards to friends and let them decide which charity to support; or create a fundraising page for any event or occasion and inspire others to give too. Prefer to give privately or without follow-up from the charity? Simply use our donate anonymously option.
Connect with the Giving Life community
Giving Life by CanadaHelps is an online community where Canadians, charities and sector thought leaders come together to share and engage on all things charitable. Looking for ideas to create your giving strategy? Interested in trends, challenges and opportunities in the charitable sector? Ready to hear inspiring charity and donor stories?

Over 18,000 charities rely on the CanadaHelps secure online fundraising platform.
Trusted by Canadians and charities for over 17 years

We have a spotless 17 year record for safe and secure payment processing and instant tax receipting. We comply with the PCI Security Council standards.
We're respectful.
We'll never share a donor's personal information with any charity without expressed permission and unless that charity has signed our privacy agreement, and we'll never sell your information to third-parties.
We're accredited.

As a result of our continued dialogue with our collaborators and stakeholders, NIAID is considering how best to address the HIV/AIDS research agenda for the maternal and pediatric populations within the Institute's future clinical trial networks. Significant progress has been made in maternal and child health with the development of methods to prevent mother-to-child transmission of HIV. While these successes are quite evident in the developed world, there is still a sizeable implementation gap for maternal, pediatric and child health services within resource-limited settings. Looking ahead, there are still significant research areas that need to be addressed for these special populations. Specifically, we have identified the following six research priorities:
To address these scientific areas, NIAID has teamed with the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), also part of the NIH, to support a stand-alone pediatric, maternal and child health leadership group in connection with the new clinical trial network structure. We believe that a dedicated leadership group would enable us to preserve the synergies between these areas of research while promoting efficiency and effective collaborations with other network leadership groups to achieve mutual goals. Additionally, we expect to use the revamped NIAID clinical research infrastructure to perform pediatric research involving other types of infectious diseases.
These topics among others will be discussed at an Oct. 26 townhall meeting in Arlington, Va. on the future of NIAID's clinical trial networks. To register for the meeting, please visit: www.blsmeetings.net/NIAIDTownhall/registration.cfm.
Carl W. Dieffenbach, Ph.D., is the director of NIAID's Division of AIDS. Edward Handelsman, M.D. is chief of NIAID's Pediatric Medicine Branch within the Division of AIDS. Lynne Mofenson, M.D., is chief of the Pediatric, Adolescent and Maternal AIDS Branch within the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health & Human Development.

Bicycle mania -- and change
Toolroom of the Indiana Bicycle Company, 1896.
Indiana Bicycle Company, Waverly
(Indianapolis, 1896), 5.
For most individuals, walking or using a horse--with or without a wheeled vehicle--were the standard transportation options on land until the late nineteenth century, even after railroads came in the mid-1800s.
In 1876, Philadelphia held an exposition in honor of the centennial of the United States. It was here that the English high-wheeler, or ordinary, was first introduced to the American public. It was not long thereafter that the bicycle mania gripped consumers.
Robert Smith, a modern historian, has written of
the impact of the bicycle on American life, an influence far transcending its use for mere sport . . . . especially in the areas of technological advances and alterations of the transportation system (x).
According to one contemporary author, Maria Ward,
The usefulness of the bicycle begins where that of the railroad ceases, for it connects and opens districts of country that the railroad has not reached (2).
Smith asserts that
the old concepts of social morality and proper conduct were undermined by the freedom conferred upon those who rode the wheel. As a result, a considerable part of American society had to re-evaluate its old ideas (112-13).
For the first time, more people could go where and when they wanted, if they had enough money to purchase a bicycle. Early bicycles were expensive, and, for the most part, only the wealthy could afford them. Others, including women and children, got to ride as mechanical improvements were made and prices came down.
Social restrictions were relaxed. Men and women met, talked, and even rode together, without the watchful eye of a chaperone. The healthful benefits of riding a bicycle were promoted.
The bicycle also set the stage for the coming automobile. Innovative manufacturing and marketing, safety accessories, insurance, service clubs, good roads movement, and road maps and signage, for example, were first developed with the bicycle.

What is the Financial Services Club?
What is the Future of Financial Services? The financial services industry is changing, and changing fast. For many banks and insurance firms, keeping up with change is a full-time occupation. The raft of new legislation, new technology, new competition and new products is a continually challenging cycle.
Is there an easier way? Of course. You could subscribe to thousands of magazines, websites or journals to get the very latest in Political, Economic, Social and Technological change. Alternatively, you could come to one place. A meeting place. A meeting of minds. A meeting of like-minded individuals.
What is the Financial Services Club? The Financial Services Club is a unique service aimed at Senior Executives and Decision Makers from banks, insurance companies, technology firms, consultancies ... in fact, any firm that is interested in understanding and planning for the future operating environment for the UK Financial Services markets.
Is this just another Club? Not at all. The Financial Services Club bridges the gap between today and tomorrow. It allows you to network with hundreds of professionals all sharing a common interest in the future of the industry. The Club holds over 50 events a year, in a number of different European countries, with keynote speakers and luminaries from the industry airing their views on the future of financial services. Our illustrious speaker list is targeted to cover all aspects of the industry from practitioners to legislators to futurists.

Princes Risborough North Signal Box
The following is a brief account of Princes Risborough North (PRN) signal box. For a more complete account please see RisboroughBox.org.uk.
Background: In 1904/5 Princes Risborough North (PRN) and South boxes were built and commissioned to GWR design by the Great Western & Great Central Joint Railway as part of the Bicester cut-off, which was the Great Western North Main Line from Old Oak Common (near Paddington) to Aynho (near Banbury). In 1988 with closure rumoured, the PRN building was listed. 1989 saw the last British Rail (BR) train run on the Chinnor Branch and the Chinnor & Princes Risborough Railway Association (CPRRA) was formed with the aim of purchasing and preserving the line.
1991 saw the CPRRA purchase the branch from BR from a boundary about half a mile from Princes Risborough to Chinnor (3.5 miles). Purchase of the remainder was expected to follow, after anticipated BR resignalling and route modernisation. In 1991 PRN box closed, and the layout was resignalled and controlled from Marylebone. CPRR volunteers worked with BR staff to recover the redundant signals etc. which were purchased from BR. Large items were taken by train to Chinnor, smaller ones being stored in the PRN box. In 1991 it was anticipated that the CPRR could extend into Princes Risborough, so in addition to using the closed PRN box for storage of signalling equipment the CPRR informally took over day to day maintenance of the building. The line extension having not yet occurred (BR were still using the sidings), the interim arrangement over the box was formalised in 1993. CPRR members undertook significant maintenance work, including roof repairs and an external repaint.
Waiting for Flying Scotsman to steam past on one of Phil Marsh' photography training days.
More recent history: 1958 saw a major re-engineering of PRN, including renewal of the lever frame with a shorter modern one. In 1968 singling of the line northwards, simplification of the track layout, and closure of the South box. The lever frame in PRN was again shortened and the operating floor partitioned to create a crew mess room at the south end. 1993-1998 in addition to looking after this building, CPRR members purchased and recovered material from other closing signal boxes including Gerrards Cross, Aynho, Bradford Junction and Radyr Junction. Much of the smaller kit recovered was stored in PRN box.
Post-privatisation 1998 and the Railtrack safety regime began to bite. CPRR members had Personal Track Safety certification, but this was not recognised under the Sentinel scheme. We were asked to suspend work on the building, pending the conclusion of the extension arrangements (anticipated in a year or so). Though not realised at the time, this timescale estimate was to prove wildly wrong. Tools and signalling equipment became trapped in the box. Effectively the building had been abandoned. Following a break-in in 2011, British Transport Police requested CPRR attendance at the box. (No-one else would know what damage had been done or what had been taken.) Network Rail (NR) provided an escort.
Waiting, unloved and unwanted, until the advent of the CPRRA volunteers becoming involved...
The building was found to be in a very poor state structurally, with water damage, cracked and shifted brickwork, roof leaks etc. Damage from the break-in was by comparison insignificant. NR allowed CPRR volunteers to access the box under escort to carry out some emergency repairs. To make things easier, a fenced access route was constructed by NR so we could get there without the escorts, but another part of NR then vetoed this. We only had about 10 days of access when it was brought to an abrupt halt in early 2012. One thing we had achieved was to get a prop under one corner of the roof where a supporting timber was failing. Subsequently it seems likely that this would have collapsed had we not done so, and in that event who can say what would have been decided; demolition on grounds of safety? 2012 along with most of 2013 was lost, with no access.

Gary Neville is disappointed with the way Manchester United have handled the sacking of David Moyes.
The Scot was dismissed on Tuesday after nearly 10 months in charge at Old Trafford which have seen the club go from being Barclays Premier League champions to failing to qualify for next season's Champions League.
Reports of Moyes' imminent departure emerged on Monday afternoon and Neville was sad that the Scot's exit proved to be an undignified one.
"The last 15, 16 hours or however long it's been, I don't like it, it's not the way in which the club should portray itself," the former right-back, who won eight Premier League titles with United, told Sky Sports News.
"But it's the modern world, it's how things seem to be dealt with now, but I'm a traditionalist and I think it could have been dealt with a whole lot better.
"I believe in managers being given time, I think they should be allowed to complete their work. The idea of giving people three and four and six-year contracts and then getting rid of them after 10 months is something that's foreign to me.
"However, there's no disguising that the football this season has been poor, the results have been poor, as a fan I've not enjoyed watching it - I'm sure David Moyes himself hasn't enjoyed watching it.
"And I can't think many Manchester United fans will have enjoyed watching it either.
"The performances have sort of got worse and worse. There was a little bit of a pick-up before Christmas when you thought there might be a bit of a run but in the last month or two the performances have sort of deteriorated really."
He added: "The players have to take massive responsibility.
"I never once during my 17/18-year career at United turned around after a game and thought 'you lost us that game boss'.
"It's always the players. Players have to take responsibility, accountability in football.
"Those players there are not as bad as they have been showing, I've played with a lot of those players
"They've got great care for United, they love the club - the ones that I know - they're desperate to do well for the club and they have completely lost confidence.
"These are players who were champions nine months ago and the decline has been surprising to say the least."
One of the players in the dressing room Neville knows best is Ryan Giggs and the Welshman will now take charge of United until the end of the season.
Moyes' predecessor Sir Alex Ferguson spent nearly 27 years in charge at United and brought both Giggs and Neville into the team after initially struggling to make an impact at Old Trafford.
Neville played with Giggs throughout his entire career at United under the Scot and the England coach believes his former team-mate is entering the lion's den, with management now being a largely thankless task.
"It's a different world to the one it was in the 1980s when (Dave) Sexton, (Ron) Atkinson and Sir Alex Ferguson were given time through their difficult moments," he said.
"That's just not going to happen any more. It's something that I don't like about the modern game, the fact that managers get sacked every 12 months. It doesn't matter whether it's my club, it's United, or any other club.
"I genuinely believe there is a lack of decency now in the way in which football managers get dealt with at all the different clubs.
"They're just so much in the firing line and they accept it's a pressurised job, they get well paid for it, but I think there is a way of decency with dealing with people.
"Football managers now just get tossed around, chucked about, disregarded, rubbished. Decent men, good men just get thrown away and that's not just David Moyes, that's all the way through football."
Dwight Yorke also played in the treble-winning team of 1999 and the former striker believes Giggs could be just the man to take the job permanently.
"I know there's a lot of people speculating that they need somebody with big experience out there that has managed a club at the very top level but we are talking about a continuity, something like what Sir Alex Ferguson did," he said.
"There is never going to be someone like Sir Alex Ferguson but what we're given here is a young manager who is looking to break in.
"He's not got the managerial skills but we thought that David Moyes had those skills of going into Manchester United with the experience that he had for 11 years being at Everton and the wonderful job that he'd done but he hasn't been able to turn things over at Manchester United.
"I think for togetherness and getting the results and playing a certain way, a brand of football that is more eye-catching, the Man United way, I feel that Ryan Giggs is the right person."

Forward to 36 mark where criminal yells "Yolo?"
"A Bulgarian politician today survived an extraordinary assassination attempt when a man stormed the stage and held a gun to his head as he was giving a speech. Fortunately for Ahmed Dogan, leader of the Movement for Rights and Freedoms, the weapon misfired giving him time to react and hit the would-be assassin's hand out of the way. Before he could attempt a second shot the unidentified suspect was tackled to the ground by security guards and delegates attending the conference in Sofia." Submitted by @iamajan

Index to Naturalization Petitions, U.S. District Court, Eastern District of Virginia, Alexandria, 1909-1929
The Alexandria Library, Special Collections has in its microfilm collection the Naturalization Petitions filed in the U.S. District Court, Eastern District of Virginia, Alexandria, 1909-1929. Coverage includes: Arlington; Fairfax; Fauquier; Loudoun; Prince William; and Stafford Counties; City of Alexandria; City of Fairfax; City of Falls Church; City of Manassas; and City of Manassas Park. This microfilm is from the National Archives and Records Administration (RG 21, M1648) and consists of five reels of film.
The petitions contain a wealth of information including the petitioner's date and place of birth, date and port of entry to the U.S., petitioner's occupation, spouse's name, etc. This project was implemented by Special Collections staff member Rita Holtz, who extracted the following information from the petitions: petitioner's name, country of origin, date of naturalization, document number, reel number, and miscellaneous notes.
Many of the persons whose records are included were soldiers from all over the United States who were stationed at Camp Humphries, now Ft. Belvoir, and naturalized in three special sessions of the Court held at that location. There are 354 residents of the area included. These entries are generally more informative as we included the initial Port of Entry (POE) to the U.S. There is also greater variety in the spelling of surnames and a higher incidence of the adoption of new surnames. By the several acts enacted by Congress, between 1907 and 1922 a native born American woman who married an alien derived her husband's (foreign) citizenship and after 1922, had to apply to regain her American citizenship. There are several women included in this index for whom that condition applied. It should be noted that the petitions were microfilmed in 1990. There are quite a few persons indexed here who repatriated to their respective homelands voluntarily some decades later or who lost their citizenship for various reasons which are specified and are often quite interesting. See the notes section.
Prints of the petitions from the microfilm of the persons whose names appear here are available. Contact Special Collections for details.
