Wabash to Host Town Hall Meeting on NAFTAby Jim Amidon • May 3, 2004 Share:
Since joining our community several years ago, Schlewitz has carefully studied – along with his students – the migration patterns of many of our local immigrant families. It's been exciting research to monitor, and he clearly wants all of us know and understand each other better.
This year 10 of his political science students shifted gears to focus on the effects of the North American Free Trade Agreement or NAFTA. We've all heard and read good things and bad things about NAFTA, but what is it like on both sides of the north and south borders of our country? How does it change your own national identity? What does it do to the economy on both sides?
Those are precisely the issues the class studied.
Though NAFTA is now 10 years old, there is still a debate over whether freeing up trade with Mexico and Canada has been equally good for all North Americans.
This students' work involved a trip over Spring Break to the Mexican and Canadian borders, where they got a ground-level view of issues about which they had only read in books.
They met with people on both sides of the borders, from high school students and local merchants, to city officials and law enforcement. And the students got an eyeful of how free trade and immigration plays out in the daily lives of border residents; they heard a complicated variety of feelings about what it means to be an American, a Canadian, and a Mexican.
I really hope you'll join us on Tuesday, May 4, at 4:15 p.m. when the students will share some of what they learned on their travels and in their own research. Four students will give brief oral and visual presentations.
Matt Bredefeld will present: "NAFTA: Great for Trade, but What Else?" Jeff Sostak will talk about "Ever More, and Ever More Dangerous." Steve Andrews' talk is entitled "National Identity: Is There a New One Growing on the Borders?" And Saad Tahir will present "Messages from the Borders"
After the young men have given their presentations, they will open the discussion and will take questions from the audience.
NAFTA is one of the most controversial and misunderstood international trade agreements ever formed. Be an informed citizen. Attend the Town Hall Meeting to gain a better understand the issues that politicians and big business are wrestling with here in the US, in Canada, and in Mexico.

Major New Anti-NSA Bill Dropping Next Week With Powerful Support
from the this-could-get-interesting dept
The bill appears to do a number of good things, focusing on limiting the NSA's ability to do dragnet collections, rather than specific and targeted data collection, while also significantly increasing transparency of the activities of the NSA as well as the FISA court when it comes to rulings that interpret the law.
- End bulk data collection under Section 215 of the PATRIOT Act. This is the program that collects metadata on every phone call based on a twisted interpretation of the law and a thorough revisionist dictionary for words like "targeted," "relevance," "search" and "surveillance." Sensenbrenner, who crafted much of the original PATRIOT Act insists that when he wrote it, it was intended to already ban this kind of dragnet. The new bill will make that explicit. Similarly, it appears that the bill will require the intelligence community to be much more proactive in filtering out unnecessary information and deleting information collected incidentally.
- Fixing the FISC: As many have recommended, the law would make sure that a public advocate can be present to be an adversarial presence, arguing in favor of protecting Americans' privacy. There will be a special Office of the Special Advocate (OSA) created for this role. Somewhat surprisingly, the OSA will even be allowed to appeal decisions that the FISA court makes if it believes they stray from the law or the Constitution. That could be a very big deal.
Separately, the DOJ will be required to declassify all FISC decisions from the past decade that involve "a significant construction or interpretation of the law." That is, no more secret law-making by the FISC.
- Greater transparency for companies on the receiving end of demands for information. This would make it so companies that get orders to hand over information can reveal numbers of requests, effectively stopping the existing gag orders which prevent us from knowing how often the NSA is demanding info from internet companies.

You suspect the Kings' thank-you notes to the Columbus Blue Jackets might be getting too long and too wordy right now.
June 2012: The deep gratitude for the Jeff Carter trade. April 2014: Appreciation for sending Marian Gaborik out West to the Kings. May 2014? Ode to Carter, again.
The proven goal scorer is doing just that, along with facilitating and mentoring his young linemates, and has brought the Kings within two games of reaching the Stanley Cup Final again. Carter had a hand in all but one of the Kings' goals, scoring once and adding two assists in their 4-3 victory over Chicago in Game 3 of the Western Conference finals on Saturday night at Staples Center
His scoring explosion — seven points in the last two games — has brought linemates Tanner Pearson and Tyler Toffoli along for the ride. They are both on four-game, point-scoring streaks, the best run of their young NHL lives. Toffoli put the Kings ahead for good with his second-period goal, not long after the hard-working Pearson had set up Carter in the slot to make it 2-2.
"They're working and they're having fun," Carter said. "They use their speed and their skill to create opportunities, and they're kind of dragging me along with them."
The Kings lead this best-of-seven series, two games to one, and Game 4 is Monday night in Los Angeles. It is their first lead against the Blackhawks in the playoffs in this postseason and last year's playoff series combined. The Blackhawks came out strong with first-period leads of 1-0 and 2-1, both of their goals scored by captain Jonathan Toews.
"It's a 2-1 series against the defending Stanley Cup champs," Kings captain Dustin Brown said. "So I don't think there's such a thing as taking control. Both teams have shown they're able to battle adversity. But we did what we wanted to do tonight. We got the lead in the series, now it's about resetting and reloading."
They were able to make those key in-game adjustments after an up-and-down first period, which opened with them giving up a short-handed goal to Toews (who scored on a breakaway at 5:26). The Kings responded 50 seconds later with a power-play goal by defenseman Slava Voynov.
"We were just slow in our zone," said Kings defenseman Jake Muzzin, who assisted on Drew Doughty's third-period goal, which made it 4-2. "We gave them opportunities with the turnovers and being sloppy in our zone. We knew we had to get quicker and get the puck out of our zone and we did that."
The Elias Sport Bureau said that Carter is the first Kings player to score three or more points in consecutive playoff games since Wayne Gretzky did it in the Kings' run to the Stanley Cup Final in 1993.
"It's not a one-line deal," Kings Coach Darryl Sutter said. "Kopi's [Anze Kopitar] line didn't score a goal [in this round] — so got to spread it around."
The chemistry between Pearson and Toffoli, a byproduct of their time in the minors in Manchester, N.H., is obvious from a quick glance. Putting Carter, probably the Kings' most versatile forward, into that mix seems like a master stroke now.
"They're rollin', eh?" Muzzin said. "It's clicking right now. They've got a bunch of speed and a bunch of skill and they're working hard. They've got some chemistry going. Tic-tac-toe plays and little plays around the net. They kind of know where each other are, so they were huge for us tonight."
Said Carter: "You don't have to do much to get them to relax. They're pretty easy-going guys. Tyler was a big part of our team last year in the playoffs, especially when Mike [Richards] went out. He really stepped up. Tanner was around all playoffs, so he's kind of been through it and seen it.
"Those guys have played in big games before working through juniors and whatnot. They're great players and great players shine at big times."

Difference between revisions of "County Wicklow"
Revision as of 16:54, 20 November 2008
County Wicklow (Irish: Contae Chill Mhantáin) is a region in Ireland's East Coast and Midlands. It is also widely known as the Garden of Ireland. This nickname was given with good reason as County Wicklow offers some of the most beautiful scenery in Ireland & indeed Europe.
Wicklow offers tourists & travellers towering mountains, crystal-clear rivers & lush forests, all within easy reach of Dublin, the capital city of Ireland.
Although there are no official regions in County Wicklow there is a notable East/West divide. People in the county are often very proud of being from either West-Wicklow or East-Wicklow & are often very proud of their respective region.
East-Wicklow generally includes all of the land east of the Wicklow mountains which divide the county & generally includes the following towns + villages...
Similarily West-Wicklow generally includes all of the land to the west of the Wicklow mountains & includes (among others).
The major towns of County Wicklow are...
Much of the mountaineous area is covered with a layer of peat and this in turn has heather and conifer evergreen forests growing on it, with gorse in the more dryer areas. This makes for an scenic vegetation and gives it the rugged appearence.
Other destinations
The Wicklow mountains first came to be populated, along with the rest of Ireland, around 5000BC. Again mirroring the island as a whole, they have played host to a successions of invaders and settlers. The monastery at Glendalough was functioning from the 8th century. Its distinctive round tower was erected as a defence against Norse intruders who later settled there. Little remains of Viking Wicklow except in its name, Wicklow loosely translating as 'Viking harbour'.
Before the late 1840s the mountains were much more heavily populated than they are today. Ancient oakwoods were felled and mining and farming settlements were built in the upper Glendalough valley, Glenmacnass and elsewhere. Nowadays, these ghostly settlements often lie hidden in dark forest or high on wild hilltops, a testament to the hardiness of their former occupiers.
The mountains have a special place in Irish nationalist history too. They played a dramatic role in the failed and tragic 1798 'rising', or rebellion, playing host to rebels and army barracks alike. The high straight roads that traverse the range date from this era and a military desperate to control the region. Its a role studied and celebrated throughout the county, at the highly recommended Wicklow Gaol Museum in Wicklow town as well as in more humble surroundings such as the Glenmalure Inn.
More recently, their contribution has been more artisitic than political. Around the turn of the last century, the famous playwright J. M. Synge lived in Glanmore Castle near Ashford and wrote about his sojourns in the hills nearby. The naturalist and poet Robert Praeger also received much inspiration in the area, as did contemporary Nobel-winning poet Seamus Heaney, all of whom are celebrated at the nearby Devils Glen Sculplture in Woodland Park.
The Wicklow Mountains are a favoured location as a backdrop for film studios, both local and international. Recent productions have included King Arthur, Reign of Fire, Michael Collins and Excalibur. The BBC series Ballykissangel was shot on location in Avoca and the long running Irish soap opera Glenroe (now defunct) took place in Kilcoole. Ardmore Studios in Bray has also played host to numerable productions. Actors and directors living in the area include John Hurt, Daniel Day-Lewis and John Boorman. The avid film buff can follow signposted film trails around the mountains (and beyond) by road.
For its small size and population, Ireland is one of the world's most visited places. In the summer, when most people come, it can feel like an island heaving with tourists. Wicklow, one of the country's primary destinations for visitors, can be particularly crowded. On a typical August day, you might meet or see any or all of the folllowing sights on the high-hedged, narrow Wicklow roads: a middle-aged British couple driving their caravan serenely down from the ferry in Dublin to their holiday home in Kilkenny; a young Dutch or German family steering their brightly coloured gypsy caravan around treacherous bends at ridiculously slow speeds; an American tour group tracing their heraldic roots and wearing flourescent green baseball caps emblazoned 'IRELAND'; a young Czech, Polish or Baltic state couple hitching in the hills on a day trip away from Dublin; any of the main tourist attactions barraged by huge, babbling, screaming groups of school-age English-learning French, Italian and Spanish children (and some scared looking staff!).
As in the rest of Ireland English is the language spoken by the majority. A visitor may notice the wide variety of accents on display in Wicklow. People from the hills tend to sound different from those on the coast. Residents of Bray & Greystones have distinctively Dublin-tinged accents. Likewise, the voices of southern and western 'Wicklowites' carry the influence of neighbouring counties. One part of the unique Wicklow 'dialect' you may hear in Wicklow town, Arklow town or inland, is the use of the word 'quern' to replace 'very'. As in 'I'm quern tired'.
Get in
The Wicklow mountains, being mountains (and in Ireland), are not particularly well-served by public transport, which is surprising given their proximity to the capital and their popularity among visitors. The main centres within the mountains are Roundwood, Laragh, Glendalough and Rathdrum in the east; Hollywood, Blessington and Tullowin the west.
By Air
The nearest airport is north of Dublin. A direct Aircoach bus line serves Bray and Greystones in county Wicklow from Dublin airport, and lots of buses and taxis serve Dublin city centre from where onward transport to Wicklow can be taken.
By Sea
Dublin Port and Dun Laoighaire Port are the closest passenger ferryports for visitors arriving from Britain by sea. Rosslare Europort is further away, but has links with both Britain and France. It can be reached from Wicklow and most towns on the east coast by road and rail. Stena Line and Irish Ferries are the two biggest ferry companies.
By Rail
A coastal rail line serves Bray, Greystones, Kilcoole, Wicklow, Rathdrum and Arklow. However, services to anywhere but the first two are infrequent and overpriced and visitors from elsewhere in the EU may be disappointed at the lack of connecting public transport services to anywhere within the mountains. A monthly return ticket from Dublin's Connolly station to Wicklow town costs €8.90 and takes around 45 minutes. Timetables are available from the website of Irish Rail.
By Bus
Kilmacanogue, Newtown Mount Kennedy, Ashford, Wicklow and Arklow are served by the Bus Eireann commuter network, with hourly services north to Dublin and Bray, and south to Wexford, Waterford and Rosslare Europort. On the western side of the mountains, Blessington is served by the 180 service from Dublin to Athy, again hourly.
Get around
By Bus & Rail
Bus and Rail services are limited to larger towns, and are concentrated on the east coast. Connecting services from towns into the mountains by public transport are almost non-existent, desperate tourists often being forced to resort to either costly taxis or unreliable hitching.
Bus Eireann bus services originate outside the Connolly Station Luas stop in Dublin's north-east city centre. Timetables and fares can be obtained online the Bus Eireann webpage. Direct buses do operate from Dublin but tend to be either private and expensive (St. Kevin's Bus Service - 0404 45834 - monthly return a hefty €14) or tour-based and even more expensive (Bus Eireann Tours - www.buseireann.ie - day tour €28).
By Car
By far and away the best method of travelling in the area is by car. Spectacular views await drivers on both the Wicklow and Sally Gap roads, and on lower roads such as the Kilmacanogue to Roundwood route via Calary. Besides this, car rental and petrol are relatively cheap (by European standards) and, as mentioned, the public transport options are severely limited. All main international rental firms operate at Dublin airport, ay several locations in Dublin city centre and in Bray.
By Thumb
Irish hitch-hikers used to be a common sight on the roads of Wicklow. Nowadays, it is more often resident Poles, Latvians or Czechs you see with their thumbs out, taking an afternoon away from Bray, Dun Laoighaire or Dublin. If stories are to be believed, Irish drivers are also not as ready to pick up hitchers as in years gone by, when hitchers often formed queues in popular spots while waiting for their next ride. Hitching is never a 100% safe and reliable method of travel. Solo women travellers are especially advised against it.
Hill Walking
A list of some of the more interesting and higher peaks to hike are:
And for those looking for a 2 or 3 day walk.
Some excellent spots to eat:
Hotels Wicklow, as one of the country's top tourist spots, boasts a wealth of top-notch hotels that is only matched elsewhere in Ireland in Dublin and, perhaps, Belfast. Top of the pile is the five star Druids Glen Marriott Hotel near Kilcoole and the Druids Glen golf course in the east. Further south is the Macreddin Village complex near Aughrim and the delightful Vale of Avoca. Its organic Strawberry Tree restaurant comes recommended. Tinakilly House in Rathnew is a faded but grand four-star coastal option with a highly-regarded restaurant. Straddling not just the glaciated and dramatic nearby Glen of the Downs, but also the high-end / mid-range sectors is the Glenview hotel, on the slopes of the sugarloaf. Worth a mention is the extravagant and soon-to-be-completed six-star Hilton at Powerscourt near Enniskerry.
The situation for those on strictly mid-range budgets is slightly less rosy. Although there are certain decent value options in popular sites such as Glendalough, they tend to fill up quickly at peak times and so early booking is essential. Some of the more interesting choices centre on the village of Ashford. Near the coast is the refined but petite Hunters Hotel, with the indefatigable nonegenarian proprietor Mrs. Gillethlie. In the village itself, Chester Beatty's Inn offers no nonsense hospitality above a pub and restaurant. Driving towards Roundwood, the Devils Glen equestrian village is set in 200 acres of park and native woodland, and offers classy self-catering holidays to familys and those of the equine set. There are also reasonable if bland options in the county's principal towns: the Royal in Bray; the Grand in Wicklow and the Bay Court in Arklow.

Woman Sues Mobile Phone Provider, Because Consolidated Bill 'Revealed' Her Affair
from the first-world-problems dept
Now the woman, whose husband walked out, is suing the communications giant for $600,000 for alleged invasion of privacy and breach of contract, the results of which she says have ruined her life.I don't know, but I'd have to say that, perhaps, having the affair was the key problem here, rather than the bill. Hell, the husband could have just as easily opened the original mobile phone bill which was sent to the same house. It doesn't say so, but it seems likely that when the guy called to add services, Rogers asked if he wanted the bills consolidated and the guy just said yes.
Furthermore, the whole thing gets more bizarre later, when the story also claims that the "jilted third-party" later got access to the woman's voicemail and "harassed" her and "taunted" her (ex-)husband. And, on top of that, the article later notes "the wrongdoing that occurred in 2007 reoccurred" because the phone was still being billed to her husband's account in 2009. This part is left vague, but, it makes you wonder why two years after her husband had left her, she hadn't set up separate phone service for herself.
I'm sure it sucks to have all that happen, but it seems like a pretty big stretch to blame your mobile phone provider for the affair you had that caused your spouse to leave you...

I'll probably make 0.17 the default in the next release - I initially experienced some hiccups with it, but I'm now thinking these are related to my network and have nothing to do with MPD.
Regarding renice, while I understand what the command is supposed to do in general, I don't really understand these specific examples. While I understand -10 is the nice value, what are 3, 9, 13, and 16? I can't reconcile this use case with any of the documentation on renice. It seems to me a renice script would need to grep through the process list or cat some PID files to determine which processes to renice.
ot sure about MPDroid and similar. If not odds are some other android audio app should be able to play back the stream. Right now you need to set this up manually in mpd.conf, the wizards won't create a streaming output for you.
Hi Idolse
The numbers 3, 9, 13 and 16 represent the actual processes that are being reniced. These are the interrupts that handle the audio threads.
Here is a link to the source, it also has other information concerning tuning Linux for audio.
Dynobot - I can understand where Idolse is coming from. Are you sure that every user of mpdPup will find the PID Nos 3,9,13 & 16 running the same processes?
In my case for reference, they are:
PID 3 ksoftirqd/0
PID 9 ksoftirqd/1
PID 13 sync_supers
PID 16 ata_sff
Are those the same for you?

Subject description: Renice - sync-super & att-sfs
Doing a bit more research on the four processes that are being reniced to higher priority, I am a bit puzzled why these two are candidates for improvement? They appear to be carrying out hard drive processes that are not 'sound-related' nor relevant to mpdPup which plays 100% from RAM?
PID 13 sync_supers
- seems from this explanation actually to be doing something 'we' would not want - namely writing stuff to disk every 5 seconds -
Should we not be trying to remove it from the kernel altogether as seems to be the aim by others?
PID 16 ata_sff
- again seems to be HDD related and only there to support old disk interfaces.
This option adds support for ATA controllers with SFF compliant or similar programming interface.
"SFF is the legacy IDE interface that has been around since the dawn of time. Almost all PATA controllers have an SFF interface. Many SATA controllers have an SFF interface when configured into a legacy compatibility mode.
For users with exclusively modern controllers like AHCI, Silicon Image 3124, or Marvell 6440, you may choose to disable this unneeded SFF support."
Surely only relevant if using a HDD at all? Again why promote its activity for SQ by renice -10?
I run mpdPup off a USB thumbstick, but do have an SSD in the PC also. Since applying the renice batch file, have noticed that my SSD activity light does flash every 5 seconds which it never did before.
As always I defer to ldolse and Dynobot being a relative Linux newbie.

Hi concerning the interrupt values to renice....you guys have a point. I should have considered that in my haste.
For the SB-Touch something like this was used, to make sure the correct priorities were being changed. On my machine with a "dual core" the values were correct only...on other peoples machines the values will change.
# Set audio thread priorities
# Get IRQ for RTC
tmp=`cat /proc/interrupts |grep "mxc_rtc"|cut -f2 -d" "|cut -f1 -d":"`
# Get proc # for RTC
rtc=`ps -e|grep IRQ-$tmp|cut -f3 -d" "`
# Get IRQ of SPDIF I/F
tmp=`cat /proc/interrupts |grep "spdif"|cut -f2 -d" "|cut -f1 -d":"`
# Get proc # for SPDIF
spdif=`ps -e|grep IRQ-$tmp|cut -f3 -d" "`
# Get proces number for audio threads
aud1=`ps -e|grep "sirq-hrtimer/0"|cut -f4 -d" "`
aud2=`ps -e|grep "sirq-timer/0"|cut -f5 -d" "`
# Set new priorities
chrt -f -p 93 $aud1 > /dev/null
chrt -f -p 91 $aud2 > /dev/null
chrt -f -p 59 $spdif > /dev/null
chrt -f -p 87 $rtc > /dev/null

Subject description: Renice
Hi Dynobot
Firstly, can I thank you for putting forward constructive suggestions for mpdPup tweaks to improve SQ. It would be great if others with positive experience could do the same. I think that there is a great scope for improvement for those prepared to work at it (like me!).
However, I think your recent suggestions have effectively taken your SBTouch mods and tried to apply them to mpdPup, which I think do not translate well or in many cases apply at all to mpdPup. Your latest posting was applying thread priorities to processes that do not seem to exist as processes running at all in mpdPup. I have not found any of them myself in my set-up - see attached file dump of ps -A -l. You will see that I have left PIDs 3 & 9 ksoftirqd reniced to -10 as you suggested, as I guess they are involved in audio output.
I am sure correct renice priorities can be beneficial. What I don't know is which are the audio processes that we want to promote to higher priority and for that matter which could benefit from lowering priority (I see for instance 'kpsmoused' set at -20 which seems weird - especially if one runs headless like me).
It would be helpful if ldolse could point out those processes which are involved in audio to be reniced to higher priority and the opposite - processes that are peripheral (or even redundant) to have lowered priority.

The best way to find the IRQ for the audio threads is to use this command
ps -eLo pid,cls,rtprio,pri,nice,cmd | grep -i "irq"
For example if I use it on my desktop a singe core machine I get this
System-Product-Name ~ $ ps -eLo pid,cls,rtprio,pri,nice,cmd | grep -i "irq"
3 TS - 19 0 [ksoftirqd/0]
10 TS - 19 0 [ksoftirqd/1]
17751 TS - 19 0 grep --colour=auto -i irq
System-Product-Name ~ $

Excellent. Those are the only two I renice'd. Good result too.
Please could I trouble you for the correct values for this line from SBGK for PC with 4GB of RAM - rather than plugging in random values!
echo "1000 1024000 512 2048" > /proc/sys/kernel/sem
Many thanks

Hi jrling
Those values are determined by the processes needs. For example Oracle has suggested values for their server. I believe RedBox the movie rental company has values for their machines too.
1000 1024000 512 2048" > /proc/sys/kernel/sem
I dont know too much about the sem other than the values that show up for MPDPup seem to be the normal minimum values for Linux. Also that the 32000 value is the sum of the first and the last max or a fraction of it for example instead of 32000 it might be 16000 or 8000.
For example the current numbers in MPDPup are 250 32000 32 128. Therefore 250*128=32000..this is correct based on everything I have been reading.
The numbers can be increased but should maintain the ratio as described earlier.
Its not exactly derived off of RAM but it can affect the usage of RAM because it tells the kernel how to use RAM to process data etc. Throwing random numbers in there could really mess things up....or it could "SEEM" to improve things.
If you have a machine that uses multiple controls you just don't go in and start pulling on levers and turning handles randomly and watch to see what comes out at the other end. I think this is what the other person was doing. For example jacking your car up with the jack upside down might actually raise the car 'but' it comes with dangers.
Every where I looked uses the ratio I described so if you choose to change the values at least stick to methods used by reputable corporations.
Have fun!

If you upsample with MPDPup do me a favor and type top to see what processes are running, then post the info here if you can.
also go to
cd /proc/asound
then find your soundcard and cd into its directory you should be able to do a ls to see whats inside, then do a....while you are playing music.
cat stream0
it should print out info on what sample rate etc is being used.
So two things if you can.
1) top
2)cat stream0
Even if you can't screen copy or cut and paste what I am looking for is 'sox' when you use the top command. And I am looking for the sample rate to be reflected in the data...probably under Altset1 when you use the cat stream0 command.
Thanks in advance.

Post subject: Problem
@Idolse: sorry to bother you again, but last evening suddenly mpd stopped working and i was unable to recover the problem, even rebooting didn't solved it. I've tried also to reinstall all on the CF card from scratch and reconfigure it with the wizard, but it seems that for some reason, even if it's written properly in the wizard, it cannot recognize the NAS, i get this message:
# mpd
Failed to stat directory "/mnt/music/Musica": No such file or directory
Failed to load database: Failed to open database file "/mnt/home/mpd/database": No such file or directory
It seems that for some reason the system cannot write in the /mnt directory but don't know how to fix it.
I've tried also as another usb installer Linux Live Creator but no luck...
Thank you in advance.
edit: if i try to mount the content in /etc/fstab it says "Can not access a needed shared library"
Why? Who knows...

Open question.
From what I understand 64bit operating systems are more efficient and able to process more data per CPU cycle or something like that....
Is it possible or even worth the effort to build a 64bit version of MPDPup?
Even though MPD itself is not 64bit there is a 64bit version of alsa [which actually does the handling of data]....
I also think that going forward it might be a good idea that for those like myself who want tweaks to get incorporated into MPDPup to provide a link and data/explaination, source etc to back up or quantify the tweak.
Going forward I will make sure I do just that...

Hey all, haven't had a chance to catch up on forum for several days, glad to see all the activity.
Regarding processes renicing - the extra info on discovering which processes to renice is perfect - better setting of nice values is something I've wanted to get working properly for a long time.
Giving people access to source code, change records, etc is actually a fairly large priority for me - at the moment my plan is to use Fossil, which is what Puppy uses upstream. I've created a separate repository to maintain my fork but still need to merge my current tree into the repository to make it a proper fork - right now the plan is to do that in conjunction with the release I base on a 3.x kernel. Before I commence on that project I plan to get one more release with minor fixes/tweaks out based on the current kernel.
I'm hoping that moving to a change control system may encourage more direct participation in terms of contributions, but we'll have to wait and see. (edit - I think I misread when I made this response - leaving for posterity - anyway agree with Dynobot about providing references to tweaks)
64 bit would be a huge project, unless I see some convincing data that it definitely makes a big difference I can't imagine going to the effort of trying to do it. There are two big issues trying to do it - the first is upstream support - This doesn't exist in Puppy's official build systems to the best of my knowledge. The second and in some ways more challenging is that it would require the maintenance of two separate releases - one for 32bit only platforms such as Alix, and another for modern platforms supporting 64bit.
@bonalux - based on those errors something happened between mpdPup and your fileserver - maybe your fileserver IP changed, or you changed your password? Try re-running the wizard and re-configuring the network share.

Hi Idolse, my mpd server on Alix board stopped working suddenly, if i try to run the wizard, it cannot recognise the server folder, even if nothing has changed (when stopped it was playing music an no other pc's where connected to the nas). I can still reach mpd server by ethernet but no way to see tha fileserver. To see if something changed, i've temporarily replaced the Alix with my previous Samsung Q1 and it worked perfectly without touching the configuration and the previous installation on a usb stick...i'm really puzzled.
From what i can see (but i'm a noob...) appears that for some reason my new installation on the CF of the Alix cannot mount in the music folder my nas, can it be some permission that has to be fixed?

to acecycleins: then how about you give us the stats on how many motorcycle riders will have an accident of $50k proportion in their lifetime?? my guess is it'll be on par w/ winning the lotto. so while $10-20/mth isn't a big deal, it ends up being approx $150yr x 40 = $6000. add on the fact that your cable provider put the Speed channel on some sh_t package that costs you an extra $10/mth, your latest girlfriend loves to text and that provider would like another $10/mth, etc. and so on, and SOME people might just see this as a way to nickel and dime people out of thousands of dollars... i'm just sayin.

You guys rock. Thanks. King- what I do vs the competition is highly focused and there's not a huge commission rate. Tell me how many average $350 annual policy deals you'd have to sell at 15% commission to survive? It's not easy. I truly do this for the love of the ride like I said.
Mr Destroyer is right. I am probably the ONLY agent you will ever deal with that will tell you directly if you can get a better deal outside my agency. Further, the limits of liability aren't what's costing you. It's the comp and collision coverage that gets you. I have NEVER told a purposeful untruth to ANY customer or prospective customer for gain. That's unethical. I pride myself and agency on doing the right thing for my base. Always will.

Actually Shalblieb- If you are manage to put anyone in the hospital that has sustained an injury that requires surgery to repair you will bust the state minimum in liability in your state almost every time. And if anyone hits you and they have the minimum limits then your uninsured motorist coverage is utilized wouldn't you rather have the $50k/$100k liability limits in the event that their $25k doen'st cover your recovery?
Like I said- Vegas without show girls. Paying $75 more annnually to triple or quadruple your limits on a bike is pennies vs the cost of recovery without. You're choice. I don't twist arms. Only point out the obvious.

To the naysayers, I'd like to add my endorsement of Kirk and his articles.
When MO decided to deliver insurance articles to our readers, I first thought of all the ways a journalist could get it wrong. And as EiC, my ignorance of the subject would be no guarantee we'd have it right by the time it made it to these pages.
Then I thought of Kirk, who I had previously known only through this forum. When I called him, it didn't take long to realize I had found the right guy. He genuinely cares about getting the best insurance deal for riders, and I was grateful to have found someone who specializes in the interests of motorcyclists. He simply was happy he'd be able to share some of his expertise in these articles.
Moreover, Kirk is such a stand-up guy that he didn't bother trying to negotiate including a link to his website in the article, which is something most would ask for. Kirk is a very genuine guy, and he's a great asset to us for having a deep understanding of a subject we should all be smarter about.
I recommend that motorcyclists with insurance questions contact Kirk. Here's his website: ::: Welcome To A.C.E. Specialty Insurance! :::

Hopefully, you're never involved in a crash, and if you are - here's a double-wish that you never injure someone else. We did everything we could to save a few bucks on this, WITHOUT shortchanging my Wife's care.
Someone that feels that "This is all YOUR fault, so YOU are paying for it!" might not be so inclined to save a few bucks here and there.
I'm just sayin'.
I'm not replying here necessarily to defend Kirk - he's got it covered himself. I'm just providing you with ONE example, of a fairly "light" crash, that involved NO surgery, NO blood-transfusions, and NO Hospital stay. I'm merely urging you to NOT put yourself on the short-end of a Life-ruining Lawsuit, just to save $50 a year on Insurance.

Jan. 11, 2010
FAIRFIELD, CT - Sacred Heart baseball coach Nick Giaquinto announced the signing of four players to National Letters of Intent (NLI) for the 2011 season. The group includes a pair of switch-hitting catchers and two right handed pitchers.
Two of the players, Dan Perez and Kody Kerski, are both Connecticut natives, while Derick Horn and Robbie Maguire are from New York State.
Perez is a catcher at Seymour High School, who is also capable of playing other positions. He was named to the Naugatuck Valley All-League team after hitting .423 with five home runs. He also was selected to the CHSCA select junior and American Legion all-star teams.
Kerski pitches and plays infield for Crosby High School in Waterbury. He threw 75 innings his junior season and struck out 81 batters, while compiling a 2.78 ERA. At the plate, Kerski hit .337 and had 28 RBI. He was named to the All-Naugatuck Valley team his sophomore and junior seasons. His brother, Ken, pitched for Central Connecticut State University.
Horn, a catcher primarily, also plays corner infield and pitches for Ichabod Crane High School in Valatie, NY. He hit a hefty .475 his junior season and .400 as a sophomore. He was named to the Patroon Conference all-star team and was named to the Capital District Area Team.
Maguire is from Brooklyn and pitches for Xavier High School in Manhattan. He helped his team to the CHSAA Manhattan/Bronx championship and was 3-0 as a starter with one complete game.
"We are excited about adding two pitchers and two position players to our program during the early signing period," said Giaquinto. "Both Derick and Dan are middle of the order switch hitters with the ability to play multiple positions. Kody and Robbie have the ability to contribute as freshmen and eventually become conference-game pitchers for us."

A Look At 'Ownership' Society
from the it's-gotten-out-of-hand dept
- The Current State of Ownership: which covered the DRM Chair, and also talks to one of our favorite scholars on the subject, Professor James Boyle, about how the concept of "ownership" of culture has gone too far.
- Happy Birthday: which explored the history of the song and the claims that Warner Music owns it -- even though all of the evidence suggests that Happy Birthday is 100% in the public domain. In the segment, producer PJ Vogt suggests that he wanted to test this by putting up a version of the song on iTunes, but unfortunately, their lawyers nixed that idea.
- Fan Fiction and the Law: in which they talk to another of our favorite scholars, Rebecca Tushnet on the nature of fair use.
- 3D Printing, in which Chris Anderson explains how 3D printing is going to change the world in amazing and astounding ways.
- Don't Screw It Up, in which Public Knowledge's Michael Weinberg worries about politicians killing off all those amazing and astounding things that Chris Anderson talked about once they freak out about how 3D printing will disrupt a bunch of industries.
- Plaigiarism: Maybe It's Not So Bad where they talk to professor Kenneth Goldsmith, the new poet laureate of the NY MOMA, who apparently thinks that plagiarism is an art form. He apparently has his students buy an online term paper, hand it in, and then has them defend it as if it was their own. At one point, he notes that students are doing this anyway, so he might as well teach them to be better at it.
Either way, it's great to see the rest of the segments get public attention, as more and more people are recognizing that copyright law today is broken, and is creating a society where a focus on "ownership" takes things so far, as to actually hinder the rights of the public in dangerous ways.

Sandy Alderson channels his inner Bruce from Bayside
It is hardly news anymore when a caller on the air at WFAN expresses disappointment over the state of the New York Mets.
After all, the Mets won 74 games last season. And their offseason has consisted of trading R.A. Dickey, the 2012 Cy Young winner, along with ... that's about it.
Story Continued Below
But what was remarkable about the guy who called in Thursday to vent dissatisfaction over the team's offseason inertia was his identity. That would be Mets general manager Sandy Alderson, ostensibly on the air to help sell four-packs of tickets, and someone you'd like to think could do something about it if he's unhappy with the team's 2013 roster.
"I'm not happy where we are in preparation for 2013," Alderson said to WFAN's Mike Francesa Thursday afternoon. "I can assure you that where we are now is not where we want to be opening spring training. I mean, it's conceivable we could be in the same position, but it's not where we want to be."
I mean, points for honesty, at least. Alderson was unsparing about his team's weaknesses. He repeatedly stressed that some time remained until spring training, but really, that's a non-point. Most of the options to improve this winter are gone; teams have made free-agent signings and trades, and little is left to be acquired. Time left matters little when inventory is so low.
Regarding the outfield, Alderson described it as "not a strength at this point. There's no question about that. There's a need, I think, for an upgrade at virtually every one of those positions."
Of course, that was equally true last August, when Alderson told Francesa the Mets needed "to get better. And not incrementally."
Alderson described an outfield addition as "a realistic expectation, but it may not happen."
And if it doesn't?
Well, the Mets have Lucas Duda in left field. "We could see Lucas Duda improve substantially, defensively and offensively," Alderson said, as if Duda, likely finished developing and coming off of three seasons in which he ranked among the worst defensive outfielders in baseball (not to mention offseason wrist surgery), could improve by Alderson conjuring it over the radio.
In center field, the Mets have Kirk Nieuwenhuis, whose struggles to control the strike zone and inability to hit left-handed pitching doesn't bode well for his future as an everyday player, and Collin Cowgill, whose career O.P.S. of .631 was only marginally bested by his 2012 Triple-A O.P.S. of .685.
As for right field?
"Right field, at this point, we've got," Alderson paused, trying to remember who his right fielder was. Then, as if remembering it's nobody, he continued, "Um, um, a couple people there, but nobody that would be a headliner for us at this point."
For the record, the pairing is likely Mike Baxter and Andrew Brown, both with similar resumes to Cowgill and the others.
As for Scott Hairston, who was described as a key part of the 2012 team and kept with the hope he'd be part of the 2013 team as well, Alderson made it clear he doesn't view Hairston as an everyday player, and will only sign him if other, unspecified plans fall through. (That leads to the natural question of why he was only willing to deal Hairston for a top-three prospect last July, but never mind that now.)
The other area of major weakness for the Mets, the bullpen, has Alderson unhappy as well.
"How do I feel about the bullpen? Well, let's say 'uneasy,'" Alderson said.
What was so bizarre about this entire interview was how disassociative it was. Alderson is the general manager of the New York Mets. The implicit assumption on the part of most of the media, even now, is if he wished to make a trade, or sign even one major league free agent to improve the team (as all 29 other major league teams have), he could.
But then, the Mets aren't like the 29 other teams, who have financially stable owners. As F. Scott Fitzgerald might have said, the rest of Major League Baseball is different than the Mets. They have more money. Implicit in every statement Alderson made expressing frustration over his own lack of action was that financial reality, and how little control he has over improving the Mets as a result.
"To say we've been patient is probably an understatement," Alderson said about the winter of inactivity.
Euphemism is more like it.
Elsewhere in New York sports:
Iman Shumpert made a triumphant return in a 102-87 victory over the Detroit Pistons played in London, England.
John Itzik is reportedly the team's choice to be the next general manager.
The Red Bulls drafted some needed defensive midfield depth, getting Georgetown's Ian Christianson.

KnowledgeBase 00067: Using QM Triggers
QM supports seven different trigger modes that cause execution of user written code when the related file operation is attempted. Triggers can be used to provide data integrity checks or, as their name implies, to trigger other actions within the application.
Trigger Events
The seven trigger points are
The read trigger event occurs after a record has been read. It could be used, for example, to implement data security rules that require special coding.
The pre-event triggers are typically used to perform data integrity checks. If an error is detected, the associated file operation can be refused.
The post-event triggers are typically used to trigger other actions within the application. For example, a sales system might use a trigger on a stock file to detect the need to reorder supplies.
Apart from one execption described below, a trigger will always trap the associated action, regardless of how it occurs. Triggers therefore provide a reliable way to catch file operations.
Writing a Trigger Subroutine
The trigger subroutine has a declaration of
SUBROUTINE name(mode, id, data, on.error, file.var)where mode identifies the event for which the trigger was called.
A read or pre-write trigger can modify the data (but not the id). The associated file operation can be rejected by setting the @TRIGGER.RETURN.CODE variable to a non-zero value. For more details, see the QM Reference Manual.
The SET.TRIGGER Command
A trigger subroutine is associated with a file using a command of the form
SET.TRIGGER filename subrname {modes}The modes element identifies which events are to be trapped. If omitted, this defaults to PRE.WRITE and PRE.DELETE.
Detecting Rejected Operations
If the file operation that caused the trigger subroutine to return a non-zero value in @TRIGGER.RETURN.CODE has an ON ERROR clause, this clause is executed and the STATUS() function returns ER$TRIGGER. If there is no ON ERROR clause, the program will abort. The trigger subroutine can determine whether the ON ERROR clause is present by use of the on.error argument.
Directory File Triggers
QM supports use of triggers on directory files though the trigger will only be executed as a result of QMBasic operations on the file, not changes made from outside QM.

By Framingham State Sports Information
FRAMINGHAM, Mass. - MIT sophomore quarterback Rick Mancuso threw his first touchdown pass of the season on a nine-yard strike with 1:02 remaining in the fourth quarter to give the Engineers a 21-14 victory over the Framingham State College Rams. With the win, MIT evens its season ledger at 1-1, while the Rams fall for the second straight week to open the 2006 slate.
MIT and Framingham State battled in a very even game with neither team holding a lead larger than one touchdown. The Rams broke into the scoring column in the first quarter as they capitalized on an interception by defensive back Ryan Quinn. Two plays later, senior running back Bryce Guilbeault pounded into the end zone from one-yard out. MIT came back to tie the game just before the half on a 14-yard touchdown run by junior running back Thomas Scotton.
The Engineers found success through the air in the second half as they went 72 yards in nine plays for their second scoring drive, which was capped by a one-yard touchdown run by sophomore Ben Grannan.
Trailing 14-7, the Rams stuck to their gameplan and focused on running the ball. Framingham enjoyed a great game on the ground as they ran the ball 42 times for 216 yards, including 106 yards rushing from junior tailback Luke Guarino. Guarino had some key first down runs for the Rams on their tying scoring drive.
The Rams tied the game with 14:56 left in the final quarter on a 10-play, 79-yard drive that was capped by a nine-yard Guilbeault touchdown run. With four minutes to go in the tilt, the Rams defense and sophomore linebacker Tim Clark forced and recovered an MIT fumble at their own 19 yard line to give Framingham State a chance to drive the field and take the lead. However, three plays later Framingham State backup quarterback Evan McCullough was intercepted by Ryan Brunswick at the 42-yard line. MIT scored the go-ahead touchdown six plays later on Mancuso's touchdown pass to tight end Chris Ruggiero.
Framingham State's Mark Peterson returned the ensuing kickoff 22 yards to give the Rams the ball and a chance to win the game with 52 seconds remaining in the game. The Rams moved the ball down the field with several successful completions. Despite the offensive assault, the drive would halt at the MIT eight yard-line as Tech's secondary deflected away a fourth down pass from McCullough with seven seconds remaining to seal the win.
On the defensive side of the ball, the Rams were led by junior Jason Hallet who had a game high 11 tackles and Bryan Ibbitson who had six stops including two sacks. MIT defensive back David Kalk let the Engineers with 10 tackles on the day.
Mancuso finished 18-for-33 with 184 yards passing and the game-winning throw despite throwing two picks for the second straight week. Ruggiero, Kevin Vogelsang and Marcus Carson each hauled in five catches for the MIT offense, while rookie DeRon Brown rushed for 44 of the Engineers' 112 rushing yards to pace the ground game.

With everyone from Alexander Wang to Stella McCartney making athletic-inspired undies these days, it's easy to forget that the idea of sporty lingerie used to be sort of a mind-blower. Luckily, stylist Victoria Bartlett changed all that when she launched VPL in 2003. With the tagline "underwear, outerwear, anywhere," VPL's become the gold standard in cheeky, color-blocked jersey underthings that double as sporty layering pieces (seriously — chicest yoga bra, ever).
You won't find push-ups, molded lace cups, or sickly-sweet florals here: these delicates are strictly for the fashion-forward. This is lingerie that you truly wear for yourself — the fact that it's effortlessly sexy is a just a nice little bonus.

99 questions/1 to 10
From HaskellWiki
This is part of Ninety-Nine Haskell Problems, based on Ninety-Nine Prolog Problems and Ninety-Nine Lisp Problems.
1 Problem 1
(*) Find the last element of a list.
(Note that the Lisp transcription of this problem is incorrect.)
Example in Haskell:
Prelude> myLast [1,2,3,4] 4 Prelude> myLast ['x','y','z'] 'z'
2 Problem 2
(*) Find the last but one element of a list.
(Note that the Lisp transcription of this problem is incorrect.)
Example in Haskell:
Prelude> myButLast [1,2,3,4] 3 Prelude> myButLast ['a'..'z'] 'y'
3 Problem 3
(*) Find the K'th element of a list. The first element in the list is number 1.
* (element-at '(a b c d e) 3) c
Example in Haskell:
Prelude> elementAt [1,2,3] 2 2 Prelude> elementAt "haskell" 5 'e'
4 Problem 4
(*) Find the number of elements of a list.
Example in Haskell:
Prelude> myLength [123, 456, 789] 3 Prelude> myLength "Hello, world!" 13
5 Problem 5
(*) Reverse a list.
Example in Haskell:
Prelude> myReverse "A man, a plan, a canal, panama!" "!amanap ,lanac a ,nalp a ,nam A" Prelude> myReverse [1,2,3,4] [4,3,2,1]
6 Problem 6
(*) Find out whether a list is a palindrome. A palindrome can be read forward or backward; e.g. (x a m a x).
Example in Haskell:
*Main> isPalindrome [1,2,3] False *Main> isPalindrome "madamimadam" True *Main> isPalindrome [1,2,4,8,16,8,4,2,1] True
7 Problem 7
(**) Flatten a nested list structure.
Transform a list, possibly holding lists as elements into a `flat' list by replacing each list with its elements (recursively).
* (my-flatten '(a (b (c d) e))) (A B C D E)
Example in Haskell:
We have to define a new data type, because lists in Haskell are homogeneous.
data NestedList a = Elem a | List [NestedList a]
*Main> flatten (Elem 5) [5] *Main> flatten (List [Elem 1, List [Elem 2, List [Elem 3, Elem 4], Elem 5]]) [1,2,3,4,5] *Main> flatten (List []) []
8 Problem 8
(**) Eliminate consecutive duplicates of list elements.
If a list contains repeated elements they should be replaced with a single copy of the element. The order of the elements should not be changed.
* (compress '(a a a a b c c a a d e e e e)) (A B C A D E)
Example in Haskell:
> compress "aaaabccaadeeee" "abcade"
9 Problem 9
(**) Pack consecutive duplicates of list elements into sublists. If a list contains repeated elements they should be placed in separate sublists.
* (pack '(a a a a b c c a a d e e e e)) ((A A A A) (B) (C C) (A A) (D) (E E E E))
Example in Haskell:

(*) Run-length encoding of a list. Use the result of problem P09 to implement the so-called run-length encoding data compression method. Consecutive duplicates of elements are encoded as lists (N E) where N is the number of duplicates of the element E.
* (encode '(a a a a b c c a a d e e e e)) ((4 A) (1 B) (2 C) (2 A) (1 D)(4 E))
Example in Haskell:
encode "aaaabccaadeeee" [(4,'a'),(1,'b'),(2,'c'),(2,'a'),(1,'d'),(4,'e')]

Conn. Lawmaker Apologizes Over Facebook Post
A Connecticut lawmaker has apologized after saying in a Facebook post that shooting victim and former Arizona U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords should "stay out of my towns."
Giffords last week visited Newtown, Conn., where a gunman killed 20 young children and six adults at an elementary school last month. The Democrat, who met with families of the victims, was critically wounded two years ago in a deadly mass shooting in Tucson, Ariz.
The Hartford Courant posted images Sunday showing Republican state Rep. DebraLee Hovey's Facebook comments. In one dated Friday she says, "Gabby Giffords stay out of my towns!!"
Hovey released a statement Monday saying her comments were insensitive and that she apologizes if she offended anyone.
Hovey had said in another post that the visit was political.

'Herbicides are NOT the right way to manage our forests,' Says Letter to the Editor
Welcome to our letters to the editor/opinion section. To submit yours for consideration, please send to firstname.lastname@example.com. Please consider including an image to be used–either a photograph of you or something applicable to the letter. However, an image is not necessary for publication. Remember opinions expressed do not necessarily reflect that of Redheaded Blackbelt nor have we checked the letters for accuracy.
I thank Uri Driscoll and Kym Kemp for bringing to our attention that the National Park Service has teamed up with Monsanto, and is proposing a plan to control the non-native plant species found in our forested watersheds with herbicides.
Herbicides are highly toxic, oil-based, chemicals that are known to persist and accumulate in the environments into which they are released. They also persist and accumulate in fish, animals, and human beings. They even show up in women's breast milk.
Monsanto is currently in court, battling a class-action lawsuit in which eight hundred people claim that using Monsanto's herbicides gave them cancer. Monsanto is also fighting a ruling by the State of California, that demands its herbicides are listed as carcinogenic.
Yet, the National Park Service deems it a good idea to plan a wide-scale release of these chemicals into our local forests, our watersheds, our rivers, and our communities?
This plan would immediately and directly threaten the fisheries, Native American and non-native commercial fisheries. The rivers are already in grave condition with record low salmon runs. The state's baseline use of herbicides is already implicated in degrading these river ecosystems, and their declining fish populations. A plan to release more of these chemicals is mind-boggling.
Incidentally, the use of herbicides also contributes to the state's decline of wild bee populations, which, in turn, is closely associated with losses in wildflowers.
Herbicides are NOT the right way to manage our forests, and we cannot allow them to be used in our watersheds or near our communities.
Please come to the meeting at the Humboldt Area Foundation on Indianola Road, at 6:30 on Wednesday evening, to voice your concerns.
Please bring your family and friends. Bring the Baykeepers and the Riverkeepers. Bring the Waterprotectors and their allies. Bring the fishers and all the people who love to eat fish. Bring the kayakers and the hikers who love the forest. Bring anyone who thinks that Monsanto has no right to be dumping their chemicals into our watersheds.
Let's tell the National Park Service, "NO!"
Elisabeth Keesling, in Westhaven
