Kansas Senate debating Internet filtering bill
A bill aimed at preventing children from seeing obscene or harmful images while using the Internet in schools and public libraries is coming up for debate in the Kansas Senate.
Senators planned to discuss the measure Tuesday, only a day after their Education Committee endorsed it.
The bill initially would have required schools and libraries to have technology installed on computers, such as filters or content blockers, to prevent children from viewing child pornography or other obscene or harmful material.
The committee amended the bill so that in addition to technology, schools and libraries can have a process for filtering Internet content. Committee members said the change gives local officials more flexibility in meeting the bill's goal without facing additional costs.

An estimated 13.1 million Americans were victims of identity theft-related fraud last year. That's up more than 500,000 people from 2012. According to a just-released Identity Fraud Study by Javelin Strategy & Research, someone in this country becomes a victim every two seconds.
And note, this survey of 5,600 consumers across the country was done in October, before the massive Target breach.
"This data clearly exposes just how ineffective current security practices have become," said Alphonse Pascual, a senior analyst at Javelin who co-authored the study. "The businesses we trust with our personal information have become easy targets."
(Read more: After Target breach, the fight's on for smart cards)
While the number of victims is up, less money was stolen: $18 billion last year, down $3 billion from 2012. One reason for the decline: Financial institutions are doing a somewhat better job of spotting fraud and shutting down accounts as soon as it's detected.
But to Adam Levin, chairman of IDentity Theft 911, this really isn't good news.

Handshake to go ahead
The Premier League have announced that the pre-match handshake before QPR's clash with Chelsea at Loftus Road on Saturday must take place.
Anton Ferdinand and John Terry, who has recovered from his ankle injury, will meet for the first time since the Chelsea captain's race trial in July.
Terry was found not guilty of using a racial slur against Ferdinand in the corresponding fixture last October, but remains the subject of a Football Association investigation over charges that he denies.
QPR manager Mark Hughes revealed that they were awaiting guidance from the Premier League, who have confirmed it must go ahead.
"There has been dialogue between the Premier League, Queens Park Rangers and Chelsea in relation to tomorrow's match between the two clubs," read a statement released by the Premier League.
"All parties understand and acknowledge that the pre-match handshake will go ahead as part of the normal pre-match activity."

Estonian egg & smoked ham sauce (Muna-pekikaste)
For the seventh (already??) installment of Waiter, there is something in my ... foodblogging event, Andrew has chosen SAUCE as the theme. And there's a catch, you see. Andrew wrote:
"A wide open theme I hope you agree. Plenty of room for experimentation, family favourites and the tried and tested. You can use fruit. You can use meat. You can serve it over meringue or pasta or even splash it over a chunk of juicy steak. They can be tart and fruity or mellow and creamy. It can be ethnically Estonian or lip-smackingly Kiwi; 'Sauces' - versatile and delicious. What can you come up with?"
You see, he has specifically mentioned that the sauce can be ethnically Estonian. How could I be expected to make anything else then? I mean, coming up with a delicious Caribbean rum sauce or a classic French velouté would be bound to disappoint Andrew, don't you think? I therefore present you with a truly 'ethnically Estonian sauce' - munakaste. Munakaste translates egg sauce, it reminds me of very smooth and fluffy scrambled eggs. It is usually served with boiled new potatoes and rye bread. Although I remember eating it a lot as a kid, there has been a certain absence of it from my kitchen for the last few (oh well, maybe even ten?) years. And suddenly, out of the blue, I had started developing cravings for this eggy sauce. In mid-June I had some delicious munakaste at my high-school reunion weekend away (15 years!?), and when I saw Andrew's WTISIM call, I knew this is gonna be my entry.
Easier said than done. I couldn't find a suitable recipe for Estonian egg sauce it in any of my cookbooks - and there's many of them! I guess a sauce consisting off eggs and smoked greasy bacon isn't trendy at the moment, and it clashes with some healthy eating guidelines (one recipe for munakaste stated that 'obviously modern women use oil as a basis of the sauce and not smoked fatty ham', which totally misses the point, as it's the smoked ham that gives a wonderful flavour to the sauce). Eventually I called my maternal grandma Senta, who at the respectable age of 86 is a living proof that a diet consisting of frequent munakaste cannot be too bad for you (at least when combined with hard farm labour). This is her version, and mine from now on.
And I hope it's ethnically Estonian enough for Andrew :-)
My grandma Senta's egg & smoked ham sauce
Serves 2
1 heaped Tbsp plain flour
2 large eggs
300 ml milk
a pinch of salt
200 grams smoked & salted ham (see here), cut into small cubes
1 medium onion, finely chopped
chopped scallions/green onions
In a small bowl, whisk eggs and flour into a paste. Then add milk, little by little, whisking all the time. Season with salt.
Heat a frying pan or a small non-stick saucepan on a medium-high heat and add the cubed ham. Fry, stirring regularly, for about 5 minutes, until the ham starts to brown and release plenty of grease. Now reduce the heat to medium, add the onions and saute them with ham cubes for about 5 minutes.
Now pour the egg and milk mixture into the saucepan and start stirring the sauce with a wooden spoon, waiting for the sauce to thicken - this could take up to five minutes. It's important to stir all the time, or you'll end up with scrambled eggs, which isn't the same thing at all!
When ready to serve, sprinkle with chopped green onions.
And serve with boiled new potatoes and rye bread, as I said above.
Here are links to my previous Waiter there is something in my ... entries:
June 2007 (DUMPLINGS): Vareniki dumplings with curd cheese filling, served with home-made apricot jam & pistachios.
May 2007 (STUFFED VEGETABLES): Stuffed tomatoes with two types of salad - cod liver salad & cucumber and wild garlic salad.
April 2007 (BREAD): a traditional Estonian quick mushroom bread, Seenekarask.
March 2007 (EASTER BASKET): a selection of various Easter delights.
February 2007 (PIE): a great Russian puff pastry and fish pie, Salmon Kulebyaka.
January 2007 (STEW): my version (in collaboration with Anthony Bourdain:) of the French classic Boeuf Bourguignon.
Two years ago I wrote about an essential Scottish dessert - Cranachan. Considering that raspberries are in season at the moment in many parts of the world, then this recipe is definitely worth checking out! And who wouldn't like a combination of raspberries, cream and whisky? There's even a delicious porridge version of Cranachan.

Ma vist ei ole ikka eestlane. Munakastet pole mina küll elu sees kodus saanud ja kui see ühes kastmete retseptiraamatus ette tuli, sain kodus kommentaari, et 'kes kartulite peale veel sellist kastet tahaks?'
No tegelikult...mina. Kuigi vanaema kokakunstiga meenub hoopis tema lihtsalt suurepärane lihtne hele jahukaste. Kuidas sellist asja tehakse? Ilma pikaajalise kogemuse, hunniku armastuse ja puupliidita vist ei saa...

My Grandmother makes the same exact recipe! It's one of my favorite comfort foods... I can remember countless summer mornings eating this outside for breakfast at our cottage in the Lithuanian countryside. Last time when she flew to the US to visit us, my Grandmother showed me how to make it... she also said that it's an old way to "save" eggs. Still, I actually prefer it scrambled eggs... :)

Ehhh, jälle ma loen tühja kõhuga :P
Mulle tegi munakastet vanavanaema ja ilus mälestus on see tõesti. Ma täpselt ei teagi, miks ma ise selle peale tulnud pole (retseptita olen muidugi ka).
Panen kõrva taha ja teen sügisel järgi :)

Tanna - it is more special, isn't it!?
Andrew - what a relief!!
Katie - bacon yields a wonderful flavour to this sauce. That's why I'd never make this with oil. I could just make scrambled eggs then, but that's a different dish altogether!
Alanna - this one was definitely a winner. I don't think K. had had it for about 30 years, and he really appreciated it!
Wendy - we ate it with new potatoes and dark rye bread. Home-made, of course..
Paz - yep, my grandma said it must be green onions and not much more elegant chives:)
K&S - thank you!
Pene - she might like it! And don't forget a kama dessert!
Ximena - it'd be nice on a cold day, but it was also great on new potatoes (alias on a warm day:)
Joey - you're so sweet!
Deinin - oh, we've got that munakaste as well!
Maninas - indeed!
Evelin - no mina sain küll seda lapsepõlves sageli, aga ma olen Sinust kaks korda vanem ka :) Tavaline jahukaste ei meeldi mulle pooltki nii palju, nii et selles osas Sind aidata hetkel ei saa..
Benas - I can imagine that Latvians and Lithuanians have something similar. Thanks for popping by:)
Thredahlia - no ei tohi tühja kõhuga toidublogisid lugeda!!! Ja praeguste ilmade korral küll munakastmega sügiseni ei pea ootama :)

Oh wow!! I think I gotta get myself to Estonia soon, if that's what I can hope to eat :) That sounds absolutely fantastic - especially since I'm the official cholesterol queen... And if I ever revive EoMEoTE, this would be the perfect entry :o)

Correspondence Management 9.5 now lets you conveniently move active assets from one system to another. You can export the selected assets from the source system as a ZIP package and import the ZIP package into the target system.
This functionality is useful in several scenarios; for example, when you're moving assets from a development environment to a production environment.
Some important considerations to keep in mind:
- Only active assets can be exported. Further, all the assets to be exported must be on the same Correspondence Management system.
- For optimal performance, select a maximum of 100 letters for export and ensure that the exported ZIP package size does not exceed 50 MB.
- The export operation fails if one or more dependent assets for a selected asset are in the archived state. To resolve this issue, refer to the log and modify the selected asset such that it is dependent on the active version of the offending asset instead of the archived version.
You can access the documentation for this new feature here.

Lawyers for Samsung Electronics Co Ltd filed a redacted copy of a 10-year patent licensing agreement between Apple Inc (NASDAQ:AAPL) and Taiwan's HTC Corp in a U.S. court late on Wednesday following a judge's order.
Continue Reading Below
The Korean electronics company had earlier filed a motion to compel Apple -- with which it is waging a bitter legal battle over mobile patents across several countries -- to reveal details of a settlement that was made with HTC on November 10 but which have been kept under wraps.
The court last month ordered Apple to disclose to Samsung details of the legal settlement that the iPhone maker reached with HTC, including terms of the 10-year patents licensing agreement.
Legal experts say the question of which patents are covered by the Apple-HTC settlement, and licensing details, could be instrumental in Samsung's efforts to thwart Apple's subsequent quest for a permanent sales ban on its products.
The redacted copy excludes key specifics such as the royalty payments HTC would have to make to Apple for using some of the U.S. company's patents. Also excluded are details of some of HTC's covered products that were part of the licensing deal.
The court order had stated that "only the pricing and royalty terms of license agreements may be sealed."
However, Samsung lawyers said in the filing that they had withheld a few other details of the licensing agreement as requested by Apple and HTC.
As per the Apple-HTC agreement, the licenses do not include Apple's design patents, according to a filing made with the District Court of Northern California.
Apple and HTC also agreed to fully paid-up, royalty-free, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable licenses to certain of the other's patents.
Apple has agreed not to initiate legal action over some of HTC's covered products. The details of the products were not disclosed.
The copy of the Apple-HTC deal filed with the court "incorporates redactions HTC requested and the redactions Apple requested, which are a subset of HTC's redactions. Samsung takes no position on whether the redactions are appropriate at this time," Samsung's lawyers said in a filing.
If all the Apple patents are included -- including the "user experience" patents that the company has previously insisted it would not license -- it could undermine the iPhone maker's efforts to permanently ban the sale of products that copy its technology.
In a previous court filing, Samsung argued that it was "almost certain" that the HTC deal covered some of the patents involved in its own litigation with Apple.
The case in U.S. District Court, Northern District of California, is Apple Inc v. Samsung Electronics Co Ltd et al, No. 11-1846.

Basic mode of operation
The compiler translates Scheme source code into fairly portable C that can be compiled and linked with most available C compilers. CHICKEN supports the generation of executables and libraries, linked either statically or dynamically. Compiled Scheme code can be loaded dynamically, or can be embedded in applications written in other languages. Separate compilation of modules is fully supported.
The most portable way of creating separately linkable entities is supported by so-called units. A unit is a single compiled object module that contains a number of toplevel expressions that are executed either when the unit is the main unit or if the unit is used. To use a unit, the unit has to be declared as used, like this:
(declare (uses UNITNAME))
The toplevel expressions of used units are executed in the order in which the units appear in the uses declaration. Units may be used multiple times and uses declarations may be circular (the unit is initialized at most once). To compile a file as a unit, add a unit declaration:
(declare (unit UNITNAME))
When compiling different object modules, make sure to have one main unit. This unit is called initially and initializes all used units before executing its toplevel expressions. The main-unit has no unit declaration.
Another method of using definitions in separate source files is to include them. This simply inserts the code in a given file into the current file:
(include "FILENAME")
Macro definitions are only available when processed by include or import. Macro definitions in separate units are not available, since they are defined at compile time, i.e the time when that other unit was compiled (macros can optionally be available at runtime, see define-syntax in Substitution forms and macros).
On platforms that support dynamic loading of compiled code (Windows, most ELF based systems like Linux or BSD, MacOS X, and others) code can be compiled into a shared object .dll, .so, .dylib) and loaded dynamically into a running application.

A 150 TONNE cliff landslide that 'sounded like an earthquake' has resulted in part of Penarth beach being cordoned off.
Coastguards said it was a lucky escape that nobody was hurt as rocks crumbled down on to the beach.
The landslide happened around 1pm earlier today, April 13, near where the former multi-storey car park was based, in between Penarth Pier and the Custom House.
At the time of the incident hundreds of people were enjoying the sunny weather by walking along the beach.
One woman, who was walking along the beach with her husband and two grandchildren, recorded the dramatic footage on her mobile phone.
It was thanks to her footage that the fire service didn't spend hours clearing through the rocks as they could confirm that nobody was trapped by the landslide.
Angela Gwyn, who was visiting Penarth from Cwmbran, said: "We saw a couple of bits fall down and that wasn't unusual, but then bigger bits started falling down."
Angela, who was with her husband and four-year-old Ryan and two-year-old Leon, added that she became concerned when bigger bits of rock joined the landslide.
"I just grabbed them and ran," she said.
"It sounded a bit like an earthquake when it was all rushing down."
Coastguards, the fire service and police all attended the scene and closed off the area from the Custom House to Penarth Pier.
Penarth Fire Station green watch manager Colin Pritchard, who was one of the first on the scene, said: "150 tonne of rock came down in a cliff landslide.
"There were no persons in the vicinity, but the fire service were assisted by the coastguard and police to secure the area.
"We are now going to check the stability of the cliff with the help of the local authority."
He added that the cause of the cliff landslide was likely to be weather related and that people should always stay a safe distance away from the cliff edge.
"All that rain dries out with a bit of sun in the gaps and then it crumbles down," he said.
"People really should stay at least the height of the cliff away from it, no matter what the weather or time of year.
"There's always bits falling off there but this time quite a lot came down."
Penarth Coastguard station officer Paul Gallone said it was a "lucky escape" that nobody was trapped by the landslide when the beach was so busy.
"Luckily someone saw it happen and could confirm there was nobody underneath it," he said.
"If not it could have been a different story and it would have been a rescue operation.
"It was lucky nobody was underneath there at the time."
He added that it wasn't unusual for cliff landslides in Penarth, but said that they usually happen nearer Lavernock Point.
"It's unusual as people don't usually congregate where it happens.
"The concern is now that people go there looking for fossils."
South Wales Fire Service group manager Graeme Smith said it was one of the biggest landslides he had seen for a while.
"The fire service urge people to stay a safe distance away from the cliff so they can view the beautiful Welsh coastline without any danger themselves.
He added that the woman that witnessed it was a "life saver" in terms of preventing the emergency services from spending hours going through the rocks.
He added that five appliances from the fire service, around 30 crew, as well as police, ambulance and Coastguards, meant that about 50 rescue operators attended the scene.
He added that he didn't think it had affected the coastal path above it.
The stability of the cliff will now be assessed by the Fire Service and the Vale of Glamorgan Council.

Aircraft consume a huge portion of the money spent every year on defense by Washington, everything from hand launched drones to immense transport planes, but nothing costs more than a new fighter jet.
The Pentagon spent more than $54 billion on military aircraft last year and that's just a fraction of the $396 billion it will spend on 2,500 F-35 Joint Strike Fighters alone over the years.
Jets are expensive, and like the F-22, they don't always do what they're supposed to as technological advances become integral to new designs.
Those advances have gone hand-in-hand since the FJ-1 Fury took to the skies in 1946.
The Fury was just mildly faster than propeller driven planes and was armed with only machine guns, but it help lead to the creation of all the other military jets that followed.

Parliamentary Union Takes Third at State• February 18, 2014 Share:
The Parliamentary Union, Wabash College's debate team, took third overall at the Indiana Forensic Association state debate tournament on the campus of IUPUI. Fritz Coutchie '15 and Nick Freeman '15 competed in the varsity division while James Fritz '16 and Steven Peters '16, competed in the junior varsity division. Debate topics ranged from whether or not Indiana should implement a pre-K voucher program for low income families to the problems caused by Federal invasions of privacy.
Coutchie and Freeman took second place in the varsity division. They accumulated a 3-1 record in preliminary rounds and advanced to semi-finals, along with three teams from Purdue. Coutchie and Freeman won the debate on a 2-1 decision before losing to an undefeated Purdue team in the tournament finals. "Taking second place was an affirmation of the core Wabash values," Coutchie remarked. "Most teams engage in structured practices and prepare for specific topics prior to each tournament. The Wabash teams rely on critical thinking, Liberal Arts backgrounds, and strong communicative skills to drive their arguments. Earning second place in the state tournament proves the strength of the Wabash model."
With a combined 6-4 record, Wabash placed third in the overall state sweepstakes, one spot ahead of DePauw. Professor Jeff Drury, Faculty Advisor of Parliamentary Union and Assistant Professor in the Rhetoric Department said "I am proud of the passion and effort our members bring to the team, especially when facing debaters with more experience."
Purdue, who won the varsity division, also placed first in the state competition while IUPUI, who closed out the junior varsity division, placed second.
There are four more tournaments on the spring calendar for the Wabash team, including worlds-style nationals at Purdue University, April 11-13.

There was a modest turnout for an anti-war demonstration in New York today. Check out this shot of some of the rally's leaders: Jesse Jackson, Cindy Sheehan, Al Sharpton and Susan Sarandon:
And the National Organization for Women; what's their theory? That a Baathist/al Qaeda takeover would be good for the women of Iraq? Then there's this:
Can anyone explain what that sign is supposed to mean? It's an article of faith among these ignoramus lefties that the Iraq war must have something to do with oil. But what, exactly? Have these people failed to notice that we haven't exactly seized the Iraqi oilfields? And that, whatever the war's rationale was, it pretty obviously wasn't bringing down the price of gasoline?
Reuters, by the way, misreports the war as it reports on the demonstration:
The marchers demanded an immediate withdrawal of troops, the same day news organizations noted April as being the most deadly month for US troops in Iraq, with at least 69 killed.
That should be, "the most deadly month since November." The madness continues on all fronts.
UPDATE: Joe Malchow points out that Dilbert's creator, Scott Adams, has expressed puzzlement over the "no war for oil" theory:
I don't understand the theory that we attacked Iraq for oil. Can one of you geniuses explain that to the rest of us?
I like a good conspiracy theory as much as the next person. And I certainly think governments are capable of doing bad things. But I don't understand the concept of attacking Iraq "because of oil." What does that even mean?
Do you think the plan was to conquer Iraq and give the oil fields to Exxon?
Do you think the idea was to depose Sadam so the free Iraqis would boost oil production, thereby lowering costs at the pump?
Was the idea to bomb Iraq until they loved American oil companies and wanted to do business with them?
Seriously. Can anyone explain what the plan was?
There isn't any answer to that question. Which, of course, won't stop the lefties from muttering obsessively about "oooiiiillll."

Prenatal YogaName: Prenatal YogaDate: June 10, 2019Time: 6:00 PM - 7:15 PM PDTWebsite: http://www.blossombirth.org/Event Description:Labor and delivery may seem like a scary undertaking for many expectant moms. In her Monday evening class, Joyce prepares women for being uncomfortable in labor, and helps them to know that they can handle it. The practice starts off slowly with a warm up, moving into a relatively vigorous strength-building vinyasa practice, and finishing with a relaxing restorative pose. In the process, moms learn how to relax on command, let go of tension and fear, to become more aware of their bodies and to feel comfortable with the changes that pregnancy brings. This is a mixed levels class, with variations to accommodate all expectant mothers.

Autumn Planting (Spring Flowering) bulbs are not available at present. They can be ordered from Mid May. In the meantime, why not add your favourites to your wishlist ready to transfer to your shopping basket later?
This product is sold in 10s.
Daffodils and Narcissi are suitable for planting in the border or in containers and they can be naturalised in the woodland garden or grass. When planting them in pots, ensure they are kept in cool conditions as exposure to heat could cause the flower buds to die off. They will tolerate most soils but prefer moderately fertile, slightly alkaline soil that is well-drained and moist during the growing season. They prefer full sun to partial shade. Plant around 10-15 cm deep or slightly deeper when planting in grass or light soil. Allow around 50-60 bulbs per square meter for dwarf varieties and around 75-100 per square meter. Late flowering varieties should be watered during dry spring weather as they are prone to non-flowering if left to dry and a high potash fertiliser can be applied during the growing period to promote the flower storage for the following year. Dead-head the flowers as soon as they begin to fade, and leave the foliage to die back naturally for at least six weeks. For Pseudo and Cyclamineus varieties, delay dead-heading until the seed has dispersed. Lift and divide the clumps of bulbs if flowering is sparse or congested.

text: Durban - Striker Bernard Parker believes Bafana Bafana will be able to play with more freedom in the latter rounds of the Africa Cup of Nations now that the stress of the group stages are behind them. "The stressful part was the group stages and getting through now has sort of eased that tension a bit," Parker said. "Now that we're into the knockout stages anything is possible.GALLERY: Bafana Bafana v MoroccoVIDEO: Bafana Bafana v Morocco "We can make even better things possible for ourselves by building on the performances of tonight (Sunday) and the match before this. I'm sure we'll get stronger." South Africa qualified for the quarter-finals as Group A winners on Sunday after a nerve-wracking 2-2 draw with Morocco when they twice had to come from behind to earn the point that allowed them to progress. It rounded off a successful first round, which began with criticism and a loss of faith from the nation after a lacklustre goalless draw against Cape Verde Islands last Sunday. They followed that up with a commanding 2-0 win over Angola, before closing with another draw, albeit a spirited one in what was one of the most dramatic games of the competition thus far. Parker, who started all three games so far, said going all the way to the final was now "definitely a possibility" as Gordon Igesund's men start to reap the rewards of the much talked about momentum and home support. "It was our main aim to get through the group stage and we're delighted to have done that," Parker said. "We showed a lot of character, we fought, we never gave up and that shows we're a team. "We're together as a unit and we hope to take this spirit into the next game and all the way through to the final. I know we can make it." On Sunday, the capacity 50 000 crowd played a key role once more in lifting them. "The crowd played their part brilliantly," he said. "The Mexican wave, you could feel it, they were giving us the energy to put in the extra effort, which was great." Defender Issam El Adoua and substitute midfielder Abdelilah Hafidi had put the Atlas Lions, who needed to win to progress, in the lead in the 10th and 82nd minutes respectively. Each time Bafana fought back thanks to fine goals by midfielder May Mahlangu and defender Siyabonga Sangweni, who netted his second goal of the finals with under three minutes remaining. There was also a stand-out showing from man-of-the-match and Parker's team-mate at Kaizer Chiefs, Itumeleng Khune - the goalkeeper atoning for his fault in the first Morocco goal by thwarting the visitors on several occasions. "He's an experienced player and to be honest, I haven't seen any goalkeeper like him," Parker said. "I've played in Europe and even there I've not seen anyone with distribution like he has. "He has such a heart and he's never afraid to come off his line and help out in the defence as well. It's fantastic and he was important tonight."

History Coming Home at the Chicago Tourism Center Gallery…
reveals public policies, oral histories, and artifacts from public housing in cities from Chicago to Boston and New Orleans to Sacramento. The core of this exhibition at the Chicago Tourism Center Gallery consists of a 1950s-style public housing apartment that visitors can walk through. Inside the 20 ft X 20 ft installation, a living room, kitchen, and bedroom filled with artifacts from public housing residents and a video capture various aspects of the public housing experience.
Alison Cuddy, host of WBEZ's Eight Forty-Eight, recently toured History Coming Home with National Public Housing Museum Executive Director Keith Magee. You can listen to it here.
The exhibit includes photographs from the Chicago Housing Authority archives and the Chicago History Museum. It previews the opening of the National Public Housing Museum, a permanent home for the history of public housing in America, set to open in 2012. History Coming Home will be open until April 15, 2011 at the Chicago Tourism Center Gallery, 72 E. Randolph. Tours are available M-F, 11am-3pm and by appointment.

Booth Setup
Most conferences provide an opportunity to "load in" and set up the booth the day or evening before the conference. This is highly recommended: you might need more setup time than you expect, you might have forgotten critical items, parking is often available during load-in (and not day of), and doing it the day before means that you might be able to recruit some volunteers who aren't available at other times.
Generally for load-in you're going to need a car or truck, at least two other volunteers, and a folding dolly is advisable. Try to consolidate all your stuff down to as few boxes and bags as possible; it's easier to carry one large box than 4 small ones.
You and another volunteer should drop off the gear, the vol should watch the gear while you park. Then the two of you and any other volunteers should shuttle gear to the show floor, leaving one vol to watch any gear on the curb until the last trip.
During load-in, you want to accomplish the following things:
- Set up the booth display, table, banners, literature, and swag display.
- Test your demo or any other A/V for the booth.
- Sort and arrange t-shirts.
- Do an inventory check to see if you forgot anything.
- Set up power (and internet, if possible)
- Sort and stash extra literature, swag and gear out of sight.
- Check on other projects near your booth you might want to team up with.
Booth Layout
- Usually the table will be draped from the front - this makes an excellent storage area for additional inventory of small items (buttons, etc)
- Make sure there's room for the booth staff to walk behind the booth: keep volunteer's packs/bags,
the boxes of t-shirts, etc. corralled.
Table Layout
- Leave space on the table for people to set papers etc if they need to take notes.
- Make sure you have price signs up for any items that are not free.
Running The Booth
Busy Busy Booth
Answering Questions
Soliciting Donations
Your Fellow Booth Staff
- Introduce yourself to your fellow booth volunteers if you don't know them.
- Keep the cash box out of sight.
- Make sure everyone gets lunch and a break to walk around the conference.
- It's better to avoid eating in the booth if you can.
Packing Up
- Basically, reverse the load-in procedure.

Keeping the Peace: A Tech-Savvy Approach to Nonviolence
What do stock trading and conflict early warning systems have in common? Interestingly, both rely heavily on mathematical patterns of recognition. According to Joseph Bock, Director of Graduate Studies at the Eck Institute of Global Health at the University of Notre Dame, scholars such as Phil Schrodt have been applying the mathematics of stock trading to detect and identify conflict before it happens. This pattern recognition is part of a process that enables local citizens, NGOs, and humanitarian workers to use cell phones, radio, and online forums to help detect and prevent religious, ethnic, and politically motivated violence. A few weeks ago, Prof. Bock came to the World Bank to talk about his new book, The Technology of Nonviolence, where he discussed the use of social media and other forms of technology to both detect and respond to outbreaks of deadly conflict.

VimClojure – a Clojure environment for Vim
VimClojure is one of the most sophisticated editing environments for Clojure. It provides syntax highlighting, indenting and command completion.
VimClojure is not intended to be an easy to use Clojure IDE, but a plugin to make life easier for people already familiar with Vim. So you should be familiar with Vim and/or Java. Eg. VimClojure won't help you in any way to set up a correct classpath! This is the responsibility of the build system of the given project. So before using the dynamic server make yourself comfortable with Clojure, the JVM and Vim.
Please make sure that the following options are set in your .vimrc:
syntax on filetype plugin indent on
Otherwise the filetype is not activated, and hence VimClojure doesn't work.
The following assumes a standard installation. If you have installed Vim (or are installing VimClojure) in a non-standard way, I trust that you know what you are doing.
Online Documentation
Please refer to the online documentation in the doc folder for further information on how to use VimClojure, its features and its caveats. To rebuild the help tags for the online documentation issue the following command in Vim instance.
" On Unix: :helptags ~/.vim/doc " On Windows: :helptags ~/vimfiles/doc
Here be Dragons
If requested VimClojure also provides a SLIME like interface to dynamically work with Clojure code. For this to work the included Nailgun server must be running. Remote may be forwarded via ssh.
Features of the interactive interface are:
- dynamic documentation lookup
- dynamic javadoc lookup (in an external browser)
- Repl running in a Vim buffer
- smart omni completion
- easy evaluation of code in a buffer
However: This is not a requirement! VimClojure works perfectly in offline mode. That is: just unpack the distribution zip in your .vim directory and you are good to go! In fact I discourage newbies to use the server until being more comfortable with Clojure and/or the JVM.
To activate the interactive interface define the vimclojure#WantNailgun variable
in your .vimrc:
let vimclojure#WantNailgun = 1
Building the Nailgun interface
You have to download and install the client program once. Unless there is a note in the release notes it will be compatible with future releases. The client can be downloaded from: http://kotka.de/projects/vimclojure/vimclojure-nailgun-client-<version>.zip.
After unzipping the archive, simply type
make in the subdirectory from the
zip archive. This will compile the nailgun client. For Windows the client is
already pre-compiled as
Configure the location of the nailgun client in your
let vimclojure#NailgunClient = "/path/to/your/ng"
It will default to just
ng which should work if the client is on your PATH.
Note: You might need to check the Makefile for special lib requirements to compile the nailgun client, eg. on OpenSolaris.
It is not required to build the server side of the Nailgun interface and I strongly discourage to do so. The server is provided as jar file from Clojars. Just add the artifact to your development dependencies.
For Gradle (with Clojuresque):
dependencies { development 'vimclojure:server:<version>' }
For Leiningen:
(defproject … :dev-dependencies [… [vimclojure/server "<version>"] …])
For Ivy:
<dependency org="vimclojure" name="server" rev="<version>"/>
For Maven:
<dependency> <groupId>vimclojure</groupId> <artifactId>server</artifactId> <version><version></version> </dependency>
For manual download: http://clojars.org/repo/vimclojure/server/<version>/server-<version>.jar
There are also launcher scripts included in the vimclojure/bin subdirectory based on Stephen C. Gilardi's clj-env-dir launcher. See information on how to use them in the corresponding files.

BoulderMtnbike needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 70 designs submitted by 21 freelance designers.
Boulder Mountainbike Alliance (BMA)
Boulder Mountainbike Alliance (BMA) is a volunteer-run non-profit organization improving mountain biking experience in Boulder County, Colorado through a combination of social activities, political advocacy, and trail building, with the goal of building a community of mountain bikers.
Boulder County's huge network of trails and hundreds of thousands of acres of open space offer only a few legal trails for bikers. BMA was founded in 1991 and is continually fighting an uphill battle to gain more access while increasing trail quality on the access we have.
Although BMA and mountain biking as a sport have been around forever, we're still portrayed strictly as 20-something male adrenaline junkies who only care about shredding at high speed while running women and children off the trails. A logo should counteract that image by conveying our other goals and aspirations: outdoors, recreation, fun times on a bike, a community of mountain bikers working towards common goals, healthy lifestyles, responsible stewardship of the land and trails, etc.
Every rider of a mountain bike in Boulder County is our target. Few mountain bikers in the area know about or understand that BMA membership is crucial to trail access. Our new logo must help us be more recognizable and valuable to them. BMA members are responsible cyclists who want to create a better world for both their sport and for the future of Boulder.
BMA members are majority male and in their 30's, but we are hoping to bring in the next generation of cyclists as well as increase women riders. Our logo should also be attractive to local businesses and major donors, so they will see BMA is a professional organization with whom they can associate their own brands - donors vary in age and focus, but largely will be in support of outdoor recreation and getting people into the environment - everyone from bike shops to state agencies to environmental firms.
Boulder is a well-educated community of people who work hard and play harder nestled against the Rockies. Boulder consistently ranks in the top 10 of "best places to live", "best outdoor community" and "fittest city". It seems that almost everyone under the age of 50 who lives here, moved here because of the outdoor recreation opportunities, which include rock climbing, trail running, hiking, and mountain biking. Boulder has a relatively strong and trendy environmental ethic - bike commuting, recycling, and Priuses.
The logo should communicate:
- sense of adventure
-responsibility for the environment
-established community of mountain bikers.
We need to more closely identify the initials "BMA" with outdoor recreation and trail access.
Try to avoid cliched elements: the Flatirons Mountains, a winding trail, a bike wheel, bicycle gears, etc etc (but if you've got a stellar idea using these, go for it).
The logo will be used on our website, membership cards, soft goods (t-shirts, socks, bike jerseys), stickers, and bumper stickers.
Logo should work as greyscale as well as color version.
Style: We have been leaning towards an Emblem similar to a shield or coat of arms found commonly on older bicycle brands. We envision using the BMA lettering within that shield or associated with it and having the text "Boulder Mountainbike Alliance" as either a standard subtext or as an optional subtext in more formal correspondence (such as in letterhead).
Colors: We are interested primarily in combination of earth tones or using some earth tones with other colors. In general, combinations that involve brown tones with blue, but we also like warm reds or golden yellows. We are going to be working this color scheme into a web GUI as well as cycling jerseys in the future and would like to have colors that feel "comfortable" together both in the logo and in a larger design.

SSH as a quick and cheap VPN using tsocks
Very simple:
sudo ap-get install tsocks -y
Once installed, edit config file
nano /etc/tsocks.conf
Go all the way down and replace, server with your loopback IP and server port, to whatever you want as long as it not being used by other apps.
server = 127.0.0.1
# The port defaults to 1080
#Change port as needed
server_port = 1098
Now to connect from another location
ssh -D 1098 email@example.com -p22 ;
Note: you don't need to change or add any forwarding to port 1098 from the router, you only need to forward port 22 or whatever you use for SSH to that machine.
Once you have successfully connected, open a new terminal (Don't use the same) and type:
tsocks firefox
or try any other browser or compatible app.
such as
tsocks midori
tsocks google-chrome
tsocks thunderbird
tsocks filezilla
Make sure these apps are not already open, for example for my local browsing I use chrome, and for my tsocks connections I use firefox or midory, you can create independent links to these apps so you know where you are connecting to.

BBDO already created a silly li'l set of ads to sell Dodge's Caliber CUV — and now, thanks to an enterprising reader we see they've got some silly li'l viral video to go with it. Watch three friends — bear, pig and Caliber — enjoy a lovely afternoon trip to the meadow to dance and sing. What could possibly go wrong? Well, since the Caliber is "anything but cute" there's always the possibility the Caliber could shoot the bear, mount his head on a wall and then cook up the pig as a nice n' tasty ham. We mean, that's one option — right?

Healthier US School Challenge
All 16 schools in West Hartford have been certified by the United States Department of Agriculture's Healthier US School Challenge (HUSSC). Our district was the first in all of New England and New York to have 100% of its schools certified under this voluntary national certification!
HUSSC supports First Lady Michelle Obama's Let's Move campaign and encourages schools to strengthen their focus on nutrition, healthy eating and physical activity during the school day. These goals have a clear link to improved student achievement and behavior, and West Hartford continues to be a leader in promoting the well being of its students. The West Hartford cafeterias exceed the USDA standards for serving whole grains, low fat dairy products, and fresh fruits and vegetables. All foods are steamed or baked, and we are modifying recipes and purchasing entrees with reduced levels of sodium and cleaner labels.
School lunch is the best deal in town !

Substation and Transformer Fires
Substation Fires
Burning electrical equipment is already ruined and will be replaced. The safest course of action is to let it burn.
Contact NIPSCO and wait for their personnel to arrive. Never attempt to enter a substation without utility personnel present.
Evacuate the area and keep everyone at least 300 feet away from the substation. Your most important responsibility in these types of emergencies is to protect the public.
Electrical equipment contains oil. Be alert for explosions and toxic smoke.
Protect area exposures to prevent the fire from spreading. Once the area is evacuated, focus on defending nearby property and green space.
If an equipment fire must be suppressed, utility personnel and the incident commander will tell you how to proceed.
Transformer Fires
Do not open or enter switch cabinets or pad-mounted transformers such as this one. This is very dangerous and unnecessary.
Never cut locks or pry cabinets open. Equipment contains live electrical components and if you contact them, you could be killed. Once a fire has begun, the equipment is unsalvageable and will be replaced. Don't risk your life to save ruined equipment.
Call NIPSCO, evacuate the public, and protect area exposures. Whether it's a transformer on the ground or on a pole, be alert for explosions and toxic smoke, and once the area is secure, do what you can to keep the fire from spreading.
Let transformers burn until otherwise instructed by utility personnel. They will determine when it is safe to extinguish an equipment fire and will advise your incident commander regarding the safest procedures.

Everything it does can be done easier, faster, and better with PXE/kickstart for the base install followed by yum for fine tuning the install, updates and maintenance (all totally automagical). Yum is in RHEL, is fully GPL, is well documented, has a mailing list providing the active support of LOTS of users as well as the developers/maintainers, and is free as in air. Oh, and it works EQUALLY well with Centos, SuSE, Fedora Core 2, and other RPM-based distros, and is in wide use in clusters (and LANs) across the country. With PXE/kickstart/yum, you just build and test a kickstart file for the basic node install (necessary in any event), bootstrap the install over the net via PXE, and then forget the node altogether. yum automagically handles updates, and can also manage things like distributed installs and locking a node to a common specified set of packages. It manages all dependencies for you so that things work properly. It takes me ten minutes to install ten nodes, mostly because I like to watch the install start before moving on to handle the rare install that is interrupted for some reason (e.g. a faulty network connection). One can do a lot more than this much faster if you control the boot strictly from PXE so you don't even need to interact with the node on the console at all. How much better than that can you do? Alternatively, there are things like warewulf and scyld where even commercial solutions probably won't work out to be much more (if any more) expensive. Especially when you add in the cost of those two "beefy boxes acting as RHN servers". What a waste! We use a single repository to manage installs and updates for our entire campus (close to 1000 systems just in clusters, plus that many more in LANs and on personal desktops). And the server isn't terribly beefy -- it is actually a castoff desktop being pressed into extended service, although we finally have plans to put a REAL server in pretty soon. I mean, what kind of load does a cluster node generally PLACE on a repository server after the original install? Try "none" and you'd be really close to the truth -- an average of a single package a week updated is probably too high an estimate, and that consumes (let's see) something like 1 network-second of capacity between server and node a week with plain old 100BT. There are solutions that are designed to be scalable and easy to understand and maintain, and then there are solutions designed to be topdown manageable with a nifty GUI (and sell a lot of totally unneeded resources at the same time).
