Julianne Mara stood up in the Los Angeles courtroom and looked across at Cara Cameron, the California model who minutes later would be sentenced to four years' prison.
Ms Mara wept as she spoke about husband Gary Mara, a former Balmain rugby league winger and the father of their nine-year-old daughter Olivia - and three other girls from a previous marriage.
"Because of this horrific accident you have taken away our world, our provider, our king," Ms Mara, through tears, told Cameron, 28.
The Maras' and Cameron's lives collided in the Los Angeles seaside suburb of Santa Monica on August 21, 2012. The Maras had flown from Sydney to the US for a holiday, which doubled as a 10-year wedding anniversary and Mr Mara's 50th birthday celebration.
They were crossing an intersection against the "do not walk" signal when Cameron, with a blood/alcohol level of 0.11, marijuana in her system and wearing just one contact lens, sped through.
She was travelling at 43 miles per hour (70km/h) in a 30 (48km/h) zone.
Her car struck Mr Mara and Olivia.
Olivia was thrown in the air and landed on her back.
Mr Mara's body was crushed and he was left crumpled on the road coughing up blood and fighting to stay alive.
He died in hospital the next day while Olivia's injuries were minor.
"Kissing my dead husband goodbye on a hospital table was the hardest, saddest day of my life, knowing I would never hear his voice, feel his touch, smell his scent ever again in his lifetime," Ms Mara said.
"Watching our daughter taking her father's hands and placing them on her cheeks was simply heartbreaking."
Cameron, who until Friday's sentencing, had not shown a sliver of remorse in court appearances, told Ms Mara she wished she was the person who died.
Cameron has a drink-driving history, with a conviction in 2007.
She was only allowed back on the roads in 2011.
Prosecutors originally charged her with murder, but in a plea deal she agreed last month to plead no contest to a charge of vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated, serve four years in prison and pay the Maras $US100,000.
"I wished that it had been me instead," Cameron told Ms Mara.
"I wished we could switch places.
"That is not what God decided."
The most harrowing period of the sentencing came when Ms Mara read a letter to Cameron penned by Olivia, who opted not to attend the court.
"I know you didn't mean to hurt or kill my Dad, but you have made people heartbroken," Olivia wrote in her letter.
"You have made me a worried person. You have also hurt my Mum's feelings, her heart and mine. I feel exactly the same way.
I always think about it. My Mum asks 'Are you OK?'. I say 'yes', but I'm actually not. It made me keep my feelings in and not out.
"Before I hated you so, so, so bad but now I kind of got over it but I still hate you. I hope you will be a much better person after jail. Don't drink drive, don't go on drugs and don't do anything that can kill another person.
"I hope you learn your lesson."

patroy needed a new t-shirt design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 56 designs submitted by 22 freelance designers.
We're a team of 4 web developers out of Moncton, NB, Canada specializing in high-end web applications. The primary technology we use is Ruby on Rails. Most of our clients are startup companies. Take a look at our website http://www.fokisoft.com to get more info about who we are. We use macs and love to read about/use the newest technologies out there.
foki doesn't mean anything. Just sounds cool :)
We like to project ourselves as professional but also smart and geeky people. You'll rarely never see us wearing suits. We come in the office with t-shirts not dressed shirts. Those T-Shirts will be for us, friends, and some clients, anyone who wants one really.
Try to match the colors to the site, that's our brand.
We'd like some sort of graphic (abstract or not) to put on the front. Basically we don't want just a logo.
We'll print the design on a black t-shirt.
You need to use the company name "fokiSoft" or "fokiSoft Technologies" somewhere. Maybe also have the site address? Or we'll just put that on the back ourselves, not sure.
You can include the quote "Stuff for the web." if you want.
I don't have anything in mind for what to put on the t-shirt, that's entirely up to you.
File format should be ready to give to printer.
Thank you everyone

Some ducks and turtles resting on a wooden float in amongst the water lilies. This is a canal on one side of the dyke path.
These very unusual cows are called Belted Galloways which are mostly black with the white belt although you can see a red one here too. This small farm has been operated by the Steves family after whom Steveston is named, since 1877. It co-exists with the suburban houses around it.
Belted galloways are very good milk cows but you can buy a heifer as beef if you are so inclined. The Steves also produce seed for the Heritage Seed Program which preserves heirloom and endangered seeds of fruits, grains and herbs.
At this point the canal has been widened into a pond with these townhouses backing onto it
Looking towards Vancouver Island, out there in the haze
Steveston is very much a working port with fishing boats coming and going
This wharf at Steveston is home to some interesting shops and many little restaurants with great views of the activity on the water. On this sunny day lots of people were eating outside. This shot is not great and I had a better one lined up when my batteries went dead. Next time, sigh.

Game 1
St. Joseph's - 3, Farmingdale State - 1
Game 2
Farmingdale State - 5, St. Joseph's - 0
Farmingdale, N.Y. - The Farmingdale State baseball team split a conference doubleheader with St. Joseph's College (11-9, 5-3 Skyline) in Farmingdale, N.Y. The Golden Eagles came back in the first game to win, 3-1. The Rams (12-11, 5-1 Skyline) bounced back in the second, shutting out St. Joseph's, 5-0.
Junior starting pitcher Tom Heeman (Valley Stream, N.Y./Hewlett) pitched a good game, shutting down St. Joseph's bats for the first six innings. Senior left fielder Fred Morales (Islandia, N.Y./Central Islip) broke the ice for the Golden Eagles with 2-out, 2-run double down the left field line. Morales came around to score an insurance run on senior catcher John Schwenzer's (Bohemia, N.Y./Connetquot) single down the right field line.
Farmingdale State's freshman first baseman Kevin Curtis (Riverhead, N.Y./Riverhead) went 2-for-4 with a double and a run-scoring single. Junior shortstop Brian Benvenuto (Dix Hills, N.Y./Hills West/ Nassau) added three singles.
In the second game, Rams' senior pitcher Rob Saverese (Syosset, N.Y./Syosset) pitched a complete game shutout, giving up only two hits. Junior center fielder Alex Gomez (East Elmhurst, N.Y./Gregory Luperon (D.R.)/Queensborough) went 3-for-4 with a triple and three runs batted in.
The game ended with a dramatic hot-shot up the middle that hit off Saverese's face. An alert sophomore catcher Ray Levan (Brentwood, N.Y./Brentwood) picked up the ball and threw to first, just getting the St. Joseph's batter for a 1-2-3 putout.
The Rams travel to Mount Saint Mary's tomorrow to makeup a conference doubleheader starting at 4:00 pm.

Dodos - "Confidence"
Soft Metals - "Lenses"
Soft Metals have just announced their upcoming LP Lenses. Taking bits of influences from early -'70s synth inovators Chris Carter and Klaus Schulze, Ian Hicks and Patricia Hall have taken the direction of this record to the dancefloor. You can download the first single, "Lenses," below.
When it came time for The Dodos to begin writing their fifth LP, Carrier, singer/guitarist Meric Long wanted to start over. The uncertainty of the band's trajectory as well as the passing of guitarist Chris Reimer brought about a reassessment of things within the band, and in particular Long's songwriting. In need of a different vantage point, Long began writing words before music for the first time, enveloping himself in silence rather than sound. When it came time to set these lyrics to music, Long started writing with only his electric guitar in hand -- another first. "Confidence" is available for stream and download below.

The Weekly Squish - Issue #2
Posted: Tue Jun 20, 2017 5:09 am
Welcome back, everyone, to the second issue of the Weekly Squish! This week brings some a new featured build, a small teaser, and another game giveaway!
Chiprock2 posted a forum topic here, featuring several screenshots that I'll post here, along with some of his thoughts.
BuildoffBuildoff is off to a great start this month, with several tree houses already being built! You'll have until July 9th to finish up your tree house. Any more information on the buildoff can be found on the Buildoff Topic.
Terraria & StarboundOur Terraria and Starbound servers have survived their first week, and Fauxx has only had to put out several small fires, none of which consumed the entirety of his sanity, so we're off to a great start! Starbound has been very stable over the last week, but Terraria is being worked on almost daily, so please bear with us as we troubleshoot any problems that may arise. Any more information can be found in their specific sub-forums.
Featured BuildIn each issue of the Weekly Squish, we're going to be taking a look at one build on the Minesquish server. These builds may not always be complete, but the creativity behind them is what we really want to shine a light on. Over the course of the week, if you see a build you'd like to be featured, or would like to submit your own, let us know! You can contact Fauxx here on the forums or on our Discord chat. He checks both more than he probably should in a day. This week's featured build is brought to us by Chiprock2. His yacht, "The Serenity"!
Chiprock2 posted a forum topic here, featuring several screenshots that I'll post here, along with some of his thoughts.
Again, if you'd like to talk to Fauxx about having your build featured, send him a PM here or on Discord. We're featuring one build a week, and would love to show off yours!Normally I'm not a huge fan of builds that have no texture to them, however one genre it does work quite well for is ultra modern, and so with that I decided I would challenge myself to build within that theme, one that I have developed a huge interest in over the past few years, but never actually got around to building anything major for.
Dark RumblingsAs we all settle in to Greenleaf to start our new life, rumors have started to buzz around the great Willowshome. Talk of a skull, large and intimidating, carved into a mountainside, spreads among the denizens of Greenleaf. No one is sure who built it, or what treasures and monsters may lie in wait in the depths of the cave.
GiveawayLastly, we will be holding a giveaway for a copy of the Plants VS. Zombies GOTY! This giveaway will end on Sunday, June 25th, at midnight CST. There's nothing special to do to enter this giveaway, just leave a post below and you'll be entered into the drawing! You must have a steam account to redeem this prize.

UCS Network Configuration for UCCE
From DocWiki
UCCE on UCS B-Series Network Configuration
The following sections provide instructions on performing the network configuration needed to deploy Cisco Unified Contact Center Enterprise (UCCE) on UCS B-Series servers.
Design Considerations for High Availability
The High Availability (HA) deployment provides redundancy from a component failure in the Unified Computing System (UCS) architecture.
For deploying Cisco Unified Contact Center Enterprise (UCCE) on UCS B-Series servers, it is mandatory that HA must be used. Please follow the best practices and guidelines described in the Cisco white paper Design Consideration for High Availability and Scalability in Blade Server Environment for guidelines on implementing HA. Pay particular attention to the following information in this white paper:
- The guidelines described in the section "Server I/O High Availability Architecture" with redundant infrastructure and paths.
- The diagrams of HA design shown in Figure 2, Figure 4, and Figure 6 in the above white paper. For an additional example of Cisco UCS 6100 Series Fabric Interconnects HA, refer to Figure 5 in this document.
This HA design requires redundant Cisco UCS 6100 Series Fabric Interconnects on a Cisco UCS and redundant Cisco UCS 2104XP Fabric Extenders.
For an introduction to UCS architecture, see the Cisco white paper http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/ps10265/ps10281/solution_overview_c22-522771.pdf.
Setting up the Cisco UCS Fabric and the Ethernet Network
Figure 1 below shows the cable connections between the following UCS Fabric components with redundant configuration for a UCCE on UCS B-series deployment:
- Two Cisco MDS multilayer fabric switches
- Two Cisco UCS 6100 Series Fabric Interconnects
- Two Cisco UCS 2104 Series Fabric Extenders
- Dual redundant Ethernet Uplinks that will be connected to redundant Network Routers.
Please note that the B200 M1 blade is configured with the Cisco UCS M71KR-Q QLogic network adapter that provides 10 Gigabit Ethernet and Fibre Channel connectivity for the server. However, when deploying Clustering Over the WAN with B-Series hardware, the Cisco UCS M81KR Virtual Interface Card is used instead of the Cisco UCS M71KR-Q.
UCS B-Series General Network Configuration for UCCE Deployment
Figure 1 illustrates UCS B-Series network configuration for UCCE deployment.
UCS Fabric Ethernet switching mode must be set to End-Host Mode. Switching Mode is not supported.
Redundant chassis is not required, but recommended.
Figure 1
UCCE Public and Private Network Configuration (for deployments other than Clustering Over the WAN)
Figure 2 illustrates the UCCE Public and Private network connections set up in the UCS B-Series system.
Figure 2
UCCE Public and Private Network Configuration for Clustering Over the WAN
Figure 3 illustrates UCCE Public and Private network connections set up in the UCS B-Series system with split fabric (i.e., a deployment containing redundant interfaces for each network alternating Fabric side (A/B)) and Clustering Over the WAN deployments.
Figure 3
Creating the UCS Profile
Understanding the service profile is key to understanding the blade management in the UCS. The service profile represents a logical view of a single blade server, without needing to know exactly which blade you are talking about. The profile object contains the server personality (identity and network information). The profile can then be associated with a single blade at a time. The following link provides a step by step guide on how to provision service profiles.
Every server that is provisioned in the Cisco UCS is specified by a service profile. A service profile is a software definition of a server and its LAN and SAN network connectivity. In other words, a service profile defines a single server and its storage and networking characteristics. The UCS Manager software is embedded in the Cisco UCS 6100 Series Fabric Interconnects, which is also where the service profiles are stored. When a service profile is deployed to a server, UCS Manager automatically configures the server, adapters, fabric extenders, and fabric interconnects to match the configuration specified in the service profile. Automating the device configuration reduces the number of manual steps required to configure servers, network interface cards (NICs), host bus adapters (HBAs), and LAN and SAN switches.
This page does not provide a step by step guide on how to use UCS manager. However, it provides the necessary information to configure a service profile for UCCE.
VLAN Configuration for UCCE Public and Private Traffic
The service profile must have the complete and correct VLANs configured for UCCE Public and Private traffic.
The following shows an example of the VLANs needed for a UCCE deployment.
- One VLAN is needed for the Public Ethernet traffic
- One VLAN is needed for the Private Ethernet traffic.
Public and Private Traffic Deployment
The following figure illustrates the VLANs needed on the SideA blade for most UCCE deployments. In these deployments, a similar VLAN configuration would be needed on the SideB blade.
Figure 4
Public and Private Traffic for Split Fabric and Clustering Over the WAN Deployment
For split fabric and Clustering Over the WAN deployments, the Public and Private networks must be configured to use their own redundant interfaces, with redundant interfaces for each network alternating Fabric side (A/B). It is also best practice to configure separate redundant interfaces for the management networks. These interfaces will be used in configuration of the vSwitches for networks in the HyperVisor.
Note MAC addresses in UCS Manager for all vNICs, as the vNIC numbers do not map to same number vmnic in the HyperVisor.
Note that in order to provision more than two interfaces per blade, the M81KR "Palo" Cisco Converged Network Adapter (CNA) must be used. The M71KR is only capable of provisioning two interfaces and is limited to the configuration shown in Figure 4.
The figure below illustrates redundant interfaces for Public, Private and management networks (where two pairs of Public interfaces are shown due to the example configuration having the management network on the same VLAN).
Figure 5
The service profile must have a vSAN configured for UCCE. The following shows an example of the vSAN needed for a UCCE deployment. The vSAN network ID must match the vSAN ID configured on the SAN devices for connectivity.
Figure 6
Configuring the VLAN on the Network Router
The following is an example of the port configuration for the network router. For redundancy there must be at least two TenGigabitEthernet ports configured per UCS 6100 Series Fabric Interconnect.
interface TenGigabitEthernet2/1 description Fabric-Connect-A switchport switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,10,11 switchport mode trunk no ip address mls qos trust cos spanning-tree portfast trunk
Where VLAN trunking is used to uplink to VMware, it is essential that the network configuration be implemented correctly. Testing has shown that improper configuration of VLAN trunking directly and negatively impacts performance of the system.
As with all previous UCCE deployments, there must be dedicated public and private links between routers following supported models as defined in the Cisco Unified Contact Center Enterprise Solution Reference Network Design (SRND).
Configuring the Virtual Switch and vmnic Adapters
For deploying Cisco UCCE on UCS B-Series servers, configure the vSwitches and vmnic adapters as follows:
vSwitch and vmnic Adapter Configuration
In most deployments, you create one ESXi virtual switch and connect both VM virtual Ethernet adapters to the virtual switch, as shown in the following figure. See Configuring the ESXi Host Network for the Virtual Machines for instructions.
NOTE: The Nexus 1000 virtual switch is not supported as a VMware switch.
Figure 7
vSwitch and vmnic Adapter Configuration for Split Fabric and Clustering Over the WAN Deployment
For split fabric and UCS Clustering Over the WAN deployments that use the M81KR Virtual Interface Card, create ESXi virtual switches and connect VM virtual Ethernet adapters as shown in the following figure.
Assign physical adapters (vmnics) to vSwitches by MAC address to ensure that the correct interfaces created by the UCS profile are being assigned. Make sure that the Public and Private networks use alternate Fabrics (A/B) on their Active vmnic.
Figure 8
UCCE on UCS C-Series Network Configuration
The following section provides instructions on performing the network configuration needed to deploy Cisco Unified Contact Center Enterprise (UCCE) on UCS C-Series servers.
Network Requirements for C-210 M1 Servers
- When you install ESXi 4.0, connect the VMKernel port for the ESX Management Network to the virtual switch that is connected to the public network.
- During the ESXi 4.0 installation, be sure to enable the second Network Interface Card so you can use it to connect to the private network.
- You are required to configure the UCCE/ICM public and private networks for the ICM components on the C-210 M1 servers the same as on the MCS servers.
- To configure the network for the VMs using the vSphere client, do the following:
- Create a virtual switch connected to a 1GB physical port on the server.
- Connect this physical port to the public network, and associate the virtual machine's network adapter to this virtual switch. See Configuring the ESXi Host Network for the Virtual Machines for instructions.
- You need to do the same for the private network as required by certain ICM components, such as the Router, Logger, and PGs.
- All the VMs on the ESXi host are connected to the public virtual switch, and to the private virtual switch as required by the ICM component. In other words, all the VMs are sharing the same 1 GB physical Ethernet ports: one connected to the public network, and one connected to the private network.
Figure 9 illustrates how to configure the vSwitches and vmnic adapters on a C-Series server. Figure 10 illustrates a sample UCS C-Series server network configuration for UCCE components that require both Public and Private network connections.
Figure 9
Figure 10
Configuring the ESXi Host Network for the Virtual Machines
To configure the network for VMs, you create a virtual switch connected to an Ethernet port on the server, and then associate the virtual machine's network adapter to this virtual switch.
To Add a vSwitch
- Login to the ESXi host using VMware Infrastructure Client
- Select the ESXi host
- Click on the Configuration tab
- Click on Hardware/Networking
- Click on Add Networking...
- Select Connection Types: Virtual Machine. Click Next.
- Select "Create a virtual switch" and select an associated VM NIC.
- Enter Port Group Properties/Network label: VM Network n, where n is an integer.(Example: "VM Network 1")
- Click on Finish.
To Associate a VM Network Adapter to Network Connection
- Edit virtual machine settings.
- Select the Network Adapter.
- Select a virtual switch from the Network Connection/network label. (Example: "VM Network 1")
- Click OK.

Thailand live aboard North or South Andaman sea in November / December
Posted 25 March 2013 - 09:11 PM
I am planning to go to Thailand this November, or early December. I can only go to South, or North Andaman sea. Which way would you go? Why? Thank you in advance.
Posted 26 March 2013 - 01:14 AM
I would go North, higher diversity of sites, I personally could spend a week on Richelieu Rock.
South has some good sites (Hin Daeng, Hin Muang, Koh Ha) but in my experience they get better in spring-time, then the whalesharks and mantas seem to appear more frequently.
Have fun,

Thank you for your responses! I am looking forward to the trip.

I would go North - heading in the direction of the Southern tip of Myanmar. Richelieu Rock is wonderful. Careful of the boats - some real cattle boats in that region, including some that advertise most. I've done 2 liveaboard trips up there. Nice diving - but expect a fair amount of dynamite fishing. Beats the water temp in San Diego :-)

Brainwave puppy repo will be changing owners
Subject description: repo changing ownership from me to samedog
Hi all,
I have alot to say, So I am going to put this into 3 sections or so..
Please bear with me and stay patient!
Thank you!
One: Change of Ownership:
I no longer have the time[as always it seems
nor the will to do this repo thing anymore...
I have been Trying to get it off the ground since my initial post of the first repo, Brainwave which was hosted on bluehost/hostmonster
Most of the work there was from "BIG-mike" and wolf-pup
I Just paid the bill
But I did do a special "anniversary" version one time, after it's first year in service , that was done all by me on the concrete5 cms framework
But otherwise, no... I simply do not have the skills to make it work, even with help
I say this because for the year or two I paid for the vps, with my money, according to usage statistics it was barely used, only 3-5 people on some days, with a majority of the rest no usage AT ALL...
I would assume that's because it did not have such a wide reach, solely because it was not advertised or pimped like crazy on the puppy linux IRC channel... or this forum/other places also it did not even have as nearly many software packages or image files for people to grab...
And this is quite understandable , no want would want to use your service, if it does not offer what they need , a person would usually need a "compelling" reason to do something, or they will find something/somewhere else to accomplish that goal or in other cases find other, better things to do with their time.
Just to be clear, this was absolutely NO ONE'S FAULT, nor mine AT ALL
I had my 15 mins of fame ( maybe one week) as being the number one rank for a puppy linux repo, according to google... but the fame was not really mine, it belonged more to the contributors...
Two Ringing of ceremonial bell and explanation of changes to the BW repo:
So without a further a-do,..
I officially and ceremonially hand over the keys of owner ship to samedog,
who will be using the VPS space for his own spin of puppy (puplet), Frankenpup!
I am very good friends with samedog for awhile now, maybe since I first joined the puppy community here in 2008, I think I first used the 2.14 version of puppy back then... and this was his birthday present from me to him
Also no domain names will be used, as I moved to the host sickgut suggested in another thread, similar to this topic so the address is quite different.
THANKS Sickgut!
The address for the new vps, is:
He(samedog) mentioned that he will be maintaining a puppy linux repo alongside his Frankenpup site.
It will be similar to mine so, nothing has been lost
As for what Frankenpup is,
If you have not been following his post's (he hardly ever post's here either, like me) it's yet another slackware compatible spin of puppy, with the differing feature of being based on slackware-current, the "Testing" or "Unstable version of slackware, so you'll get all the latest and greatest "up-stream" stuff... for those who aren't familiar with software development, "upstream" means stuff that's freshly off the presses and is where all software is originated from, usually this branch is untested, but still stable in some cases.
Three: Explanation/Summary of my commitment to the puppylinux community:
I will still maintain the Invision community forum, Located Here:
Hopefully, over time, I can achieve the goal of this being an aggregate of sorts to central at least "some" of the informational content the community has to offer.. a guy at smokey01's site also took up this staggering task as well, but it seems that something happened to him?
I currently have no time for this either, since the beginning of May of this year, but at least I got the task started at least, "marginally"... it's better than nothing I would suppose...
And lastly... I have been going through some rather stressful and agonizing events in my life recently, so I feel kinda of jaded and burned out ATM, and it is coming to light that hardly anyone has interest in the work I do for the community, but then again this just might be the jadded-ness/agony and cynicism speaking and not the "Actual" community... people, especially me can get quite crabby when things are not going good for an extended period of time!
If you like and enjoy the work I do for you all, which I know is not much, Please comment below!
I love you all, and thanks for all the time in the Doghouse!
My Pentium 3 is still useful and quite fast, thanks to puppy!
I am very Grateful to have all of you as Friends!
Signing off, for now...
Will post again if anything further arises,
Again , Thanks!

When Caneri's .pet packages were lost (at puppylinux.ca), it was you who stepped in and hosted them.
I will
appreciate that.
I really missed your BW site just a week or so ago, while searching for one of Wolf Pup's pets that I had deleted.
I recall an announcement a while back that you were shutting it down, and others were going to step in and host the .pet packages on different websites. Did that ever happen?
Anyway, manners seem to have taken a dive, even around here.
Hopefully, over time, I can achieve the goal of this being an aggregate of sorts to central at least "some" of the informational content the community has to offer...a guy at smokey01's site also took up this staggering task as well, but it seems that something happened to him?

Saturn, it's tough maintaining constant momentum. There are times when I also become disillusioned but usually a couple of days rest normally rekindles the interest.
I have been a little frustrated lately when I've noticed quite a few people not displaying the gratitude or respect that many around here deserve.
I'm sure in the majority of cases people don't mean to be unkind it's just the frustration that wins occasionally.
Cheer up mate, we all need a little break every now and again.
Best regards Smokey01.

Post subject: For dewbie
The wolf, micko01 and iggy directories are gone because where the Most Popular contributor files of BIG_Mike took up some 35 GB a majority of what our Friendly BW sponsor wanted to offer me in terms of "Relief" storage
The saved pets and image files are @
But BIG-mike no longer maintains them, because ,
1: they are a new location and
2: Mike and me had a little spat, well really an argument about how to go about maintaining the repo, specifically his folder...
I shall not go into the details, so please do not ask!
I really had no other people offering their storage or donations to save the whole repo, but I did get a 25 dollar donation from one of the forum's member to jumpstart buying a new VPS, to start over again.. this covered two months of service and a domain, but this is when they were affordable from that place
I gave up the repo, simply because hardly no one but a handful of people were using it , and I really did not have the time on my hands to advertise it as wildly or as with much enthusiastic vigor that BIG_mike did on the various venues he solicited , various forums , including this one, the offical chatroom and nameless others that would take too long to list here
Also, There seems to be a steady amount of registrations happening each day at my forums, about 3 daily or so but no one is bothering to post anything...
I have been wondering if that's because the type of information I have aggregated there is simply not interesting or motivational enough to say something
I have also wondered if it was the forum's permissions that have caused it, checked it all seemed to be in running order, but at the risk for a high level of spam, I changed it to where any one can post, without registering
Oh well, that seems to wrap it up a little...
Thanks all for the wonderful words of encouragement and support!
Especially with special thanks to dewbie and smokey01

Hello Saturn,
I know you put a lot of time and effort into BW to help the Puppy community. Your directory, with Big Mike's sizeable contribution, has had regular hits on my server and i'm sure there's much more appreciation in the kennels than is actually expressed, whether it's for you, Smokey01, or whoever, so try not to let those negative feelings get you down.
Stressful and unpleasant events in our lives often do seem to cause other things to take on a more significant magnitude too, adding to the pressure and we all have our limits of tolerance.
Thank you for letting us know what's what and i hope we see you here again. Meantime, take care of yourself.
Best wishes..

Hi Saturn
im glad your getting everything sorted out.
Having attempted to host a Puppy repository myself, i understand the trials and frustrations of everything.
Im postng to share something with you and everyone else that i have noticed twice now in my life that may be useful to consider. Instead of just saying what it is i will simply list the experiences because they explain themselves:
1.) After running a home computer mail order business, we decided to rent a warehouse/ shop in the city. Everything was perfect, and it couldnt fail. However, we didnt sell anything for 6 months. The rent and loss of sales almost broke us. However, after 6 months customers trickled in and after a year we where booming. We did all the advertising etc but it still took 6 months to get the business off the ground.
2,) My own website hosts my Pussy Linux and when it was first released, 10 or more people a day where downloading it and then after a few weeks it dropped to 3 - 5 downloads a day. And that was fine. I got burnt out and took 9 months off of the Pussy Linux stuff and during my break i didnt bother checking the downloads of Pussy. Its 9 months later and altho the OS is exactly the same with no modifications the logs show that the downloads for Pussy Linux where increasing steadily over time and now Pussy is being downloaded 10 - 15 times a day.
I think it all just takes time. "Build it and they will come", but often people travel very slowly and it takes along time for them to get there. I figure it takes 6 - 9 months for a site to get well known, so dont be disheartened if your site doesnt get many visitors initially dont worry and be patient because it just takes time for people to make a habit of visiting your site. Unfortunately, every time you change your web address it takes just as long for people to visit it regularly and the word of mouth and online chatter has to start all over again as people get to know your new domain name etc etc its like starting all over again every time you move but just wait for a little and im sure your sight will boom

Post subject: update on forums
According to the Live Traffic status page, on IPB, my forum, I see people in the process of posting to some threads, yet they leave and post nothing...
I find this perplexing and quite curious
I am not upset all, just intrigued
since I opened up the Forum to guests, some are spam of course....
In the case of spam, are they,
Trolls or people paid to Troll?
I am new to Forum moderation and do not know these things....
But IPB makes it quite easy and intuitive !
Any one know?

Post subject: Face book login for my forums
I am trying to make it easier for people to login to my forums, by offering to login via facebook, which nearly everyone uses instead of having to register solely with my forum directly
but by doing this, I have to register as a "developer" for facebook, and follow these steps:
and this requires a cell phone which I do not have... when I try alternatively to enter my home phone, the only phone I have,..
facebook returns a "500-Internal server error" ....
So can somebody be so kind and lend a hand with this?

Post subject: Repo Reverting backt o my ownership
Hi All!!,
Me and Samedog a former puppy linux contributor had a dispute recently over what he could and could not host on the VPS I have gave him

No Idea of what I am going to do with it, since it does not expire till next year

Thousands Join Gun Control March In DC [VIDEO]
A march in Washington in support of stricter gun control laws has drawn thousands of participants.
Speakers are calling on Congress to pass a ban on military-style assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition. Education Secretary Arne Duncan told the crowd gathered at the Washington Monument that it's not about taking away Second Amendment rights, but about gun safety and saving lives.
D.C. Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton told the crowd that the gun lobby can be stopped, and added: "We are all culpable if we do nothing now." The rally was organized in response to the massacre of 20 first-graders and six teachers at a Connecticut elementary school last month.
Participants held signs reading "Ban Assault Weapons Now" and "Gun Control Now." Other signs carried names of victims of gun violence.
About 100 residents of Newtown, Conn., were expected at the march. It was organized in response to the December shooting there that killed 20 first-graders and six teachers.
Kara Baekey of Norwalk, Conn., she immediately thought of her two young children when she heard about the shooting. She said she decided she must take action, and that's why she joined Saturday's march.

The nerve that provides movement to each side of the face passes from the brain, through the ear and to the muscles on the side of the face. These muscles allow us to smile, wrinkle the nose, close the eye and raise the forehead.
Facial paralysis or weakness occurs as a result of varied diseases, many related to the ear. Such causes include Bell&aposs palsy (a virus of the nerve), Lyme's Disease, fractures of the skull that go through the or tumors of the nerve or surrounding structures. As with hearing and balance disorders, advanced diagnostic techniques allow for proper, timely, diagnosis and treatment.
Bell's Palsy is the most common disorder causing paralysis of the face. Bell's palsy often begins with pain in or around the ear, followed hours or days later by weakness of the muscles of the face. Bell's Palsy is presumed to be due to a virus, although there is no specific test for the virus. Hearing and balance are usually normal. The treatment is oral corticosteroids (such as prednisone). Corticosteroids cut down on the inflammation of the nerve. The paralysis of Bell's Palsy usually begins to resolve within three weeks. In this case, the prognosis for complete recovery is excellent. Rarely, the recovery is delayed and incomplete with some residual facial weakness that never resolves.
Herpes Zoster Oticus (Ramsey Hunt Syndrome) is a Bell's Palsy caused by herpes zoster. This is characterized by blisters around the opening of the ear and is often associated with hearing loss and/or dizziness. In addition to corticosteroids, anti-herpes viral drugs are usually prescribed. The prognosis for Herpes Zoster Oticus is not as favorable as uncomplicated Bell's palsy. Many patients are left with some residual facial weakness.
All patients with Bell's Palsy should be tested for Lyme's Disease, which can also cause a facial weakness.

I am a Lord Jeff. I am a first generation Amherst student. I am not writing this because I have a long connection to the history and tradition of Amherst College. This is truly what I believe, and I think there are plenty of Amherst students who share my beliefs, but fear voicing their opinion.
I had never heard of Amherst before my brother enrolled at Williams when I was in the eighth grade. He told me that the Williams' mascot is the Ephs and Amherst's, Williams' biggest rival, is the Lord Jeffs. At first I didn't think much of either mascot. Then my brother explained that Williams was given their mascot because the benefactor of the school was named Ephraim Williams. Similarly, Amherst called themselves the Lord Jeffs because the namesake of the town Amherst where the college was founded was Lord Jeffery Amherst. I gained appreciation for both mascots, as they were both historical figures and they were both a refreshing change from the overused Tigers, Panthers, and Cardinals. Both schools having unique mascots is part of the great history of the rivalry.
Figures from history must be treated within the context of their time and circumstances. Yes, the mascot refers to Jeffery Amherst, and no one denies the fact that he treated Native Americans as enemies, which to Amherst is exactly what they were. It was during Pontiac's Rebellion when Amherst used biological warfare against the Native Americans by way of blankets infected with smallpox. This is a fact, but we must take it with the proper perspective. Weapons of mass destruction were used by both sides in both World Wars, but we must recognize and understand that the generals in these wars were operating in a situation that had no morally correct solution. Furthermore, many of our greatest heroes, including the Founding Fathers, conducted themselves in ways that today would be considered abhorrent.
Context is important. This is true for famous figures of history, but it is also true for every single student here. Don't we want future generations to keep context in mind when forming their opinions of us? To judge a man such as Amherst for his actions by today's standards, more than 200 years later and in a time of relative peace, is shockingly hypocritical.
If the mascot must be changed because it is offensive to the Native American community for us to be called the Lord Jeffs, then the name of the college must be changed as well if we are to have any semblance of ideological consistency. Why stop at the mascot? This seems like a pathetic and superficial response. We are called Amherst College because of Jeffery Amherst. Changing the mascot doesn't rid us of the association with Lord Jeff, which a few people think is a problem. Far more meaningful activities are things like the Admissions Office inviting Native Americans to the Diversity Open House and spending extra time with them, in an effort to increase the amount of Native American applications sent to the college.
The Moose? Really? We want to be called the Moose because a moose wandered onto our campus last spring? Ask student-athletes if they want their team mascot to be the Moose and you will hear a resounding no. The students pushing this change are not the ones who would walk out onto the court, field, or pitch with "MOOSE" in big letters across their chest. I'm not saying student-athletes should be the ones making the decision, but they definitely should be involved in the decision. The Moose sounds more like the mascot of a created team in a video game than a prestigious institution. Some students at Amherst get wind of the idea of change and jump on board. It seems like everyone needs to be protesting something at all times. Let's take a step back and really think about the things we are supporting.
When I think of a Lord Jeff, I don't think of Lord Jeffery Amherst. I think of excellence, in the humanities, science, music, theater, art and athletics. I think of all the past alumni and administrators that worked to make Amherst the great place it is today. I think of sporting events and orchestra concerts, late nights in Frost and football practice. And I think of all the students of Amherst, some of whom will be groomsmen in my wedding, and godfathers to my children. The mascot Lord Jeffs provides a common ground for all of us with past and future generations of Amherst students. Changing the mascot loses this connection. They were Lord Jeffs. We are Lord Jeffs.
The historical range of the subspecies extended from well into Quebec, the Maritimes, and Eastern Ontario south to include all of New England finally ending in the very northeastern tip of Pennsylvania in the west, cutting off somewhere near the mouth of the Hudson River in the east. The moose has been extinct in much of the eastern U.S. for as long as 150 years, due to colonial era overhunting and destruction of its habitat: Dutch, French, and British colonial sources all attest to its presence in the mid 17th century from Maine south to areas within a hundred miles of present day Manhattan. However, by the 1870s, only a handful of moose existed in this entire region in very remote pockets of forest; less than 20% of suitable habitat remained.
Some of the points here that clearly come from students who have benefited from attending a "top undergraduate institution" ... I don't care about this issue at all, but at least have a coherent argument.
-"This is a terrible article" ... Great, I guess we'll just take your word for it.
-"Michael is a white male who comes from a town that is mostly white so he just doesn't get it" ... You may be correct about that, but this has nothing to do with the conversation. Engage in the argument, instead of being lazy and making ad hominem attacks. Does being white preclude you from having an opinion that conflicts with what is PC? Maybe it does, but if the argument is so bad, then please, attack it. Not the writer.
-"This is racist" ... How? He presents some points, but doesn't force a conclusion down your throat. He is merely presenting some thoughts about historical context and allowing you to come to your own conclusion. It is obvious that he wants to keep the mascot, but I fail to see how it is racist.
-On a separate issue, the total war comment was very helpful in my humble opinion. Let us be precise in our words. Did genocide happen against the Native Americans? Yes. Was this an example of it? I am not too sure about that. Seems like The French and Indian War is considered a "War"
Thank you to those that have lived up to some standards in voicing their opinion. Whatever side you are on, your input is extremely valuable.
Then again, I am a white male, so feel free to not take anything I say seriously.
Mike, it was brave to post this article. The backlash that you have received for speaking your mind is appalling. On top of that, the whole white privilege debate is a joke. Just because you are white and come from a nice town doesn't discredit your argument. You are an intelligent student and are not blind to the injustices that minorities face. However, what people fail to accept is that the past was drastically different from today's society, as you have stated. What I cannot wrap my head around is how people have become so easily offended to the point where stripping a school of its name and legacy is the only solution. This school has been around for decades and people have become so self ritous over the smallest of things. I understand people of minority are at a disadvantage in our society. However, it is becoming increasingly obvious that anyone who is not white believes that any white person can't have a say. I am not saying whites are being suppressed, because that is not true. But whites who stand up for what they believe are also being called out on their color. Why is that any different? And people can (and will) respond to this as ignorance. However, until everyone stops looking at who is white or black and who is "privileged" or not, arguments such as these will continue. And seriously, I'd hate to be called The moose.
As a varsity athlete, I actually am in support of the Moose as a mascot. Athletes at Amherst are a very diverse group, and I'd prefer if you didn't speak for us when clearly we aren't all united in opinion about this issue.
go bantams
I think a lot of the comments attacking the article rely on a lazy and uncompelling line of argument--the reductio ad hitlerum, if you will. What they ignore is that the proposition [(1) Jeffery Amherst did bad things (2) We can't support bad things (3) Therefore, we can't support Jeffery Amherst] is not a viable standard when taken generally. For instance, most of America's founding fathers, to some degree or another, were complicit in the various problematic projects of Manifest Destiny and the American founding in general, such as the extermination of American Indians and the exploitation of black labor through slavery and its successor institutions, such as Jim Crow laws and the contemporary mass imprisonment of black men. The proposition is unobjectionable in the particular case of Lord Jeff, but the argument must have some kind of universal or general validity to really hold water--otherwise, it's little more than a subjective feeling. Because taking the argument (as it has been expressed in this comments section) literally would force us to disavow not only most of this country's patrimony and "national heritage" (itself a problematic term) I would caution using it against keeping Lord Jeff as a mascot. The world-historical figures of nearly any culture's historical inheritance have almost as a rule been as invested in murder, repression, and exploitation as they have in nation-making, reform, etc. Such is the nature of state power and, indeed, of our notions of "world-historical-importance" to begin with.
In other words, I think the argument against abandoning Lord Jeff because he was involved in the genocide of American Indians [something that historians actually debate: see gloss of different views at the top of this article from JSTOR http://www.jstor.org/stable/27774278] is problematic because it allows us to absolve ourselves of a complicity in what Lord Jeffery Amherst did that many other historical figures (and, perhaps, we too) share.
It also, I think, is a little bit condescending. I would like to think that we are mature enough to acknowledge that Lord Jeffery Amherst did terrible things, and that we can use the "Lord Jeff" name as a mascot in light of this without actively supporting what he did! Perhaps this is too hopeful, but I find assuming the best of people is a happier formula than always fearing the worst.
The debate of changing the mascot has been swirling around for years, but what hasn't really gained traction is changing the name of The Amherst Student publication. The conversation on changing the name of "The Amherst Student" needs to get started immediately. Back when I was an undergraduate, I would pick up the hard copies of the paper and instantly associate the title of the aptly named "AMHERST" Student, with mass genocide. Does no one else see this? Am I the only one who is disgusted every time I see the link http://AMHERSTstudent.AMHERST.edu/? Look closely, and you will see that there are not one but TWO references to the last name of the morally reprehensible Lord Jeffrey Amherst, who as we all well know wrote a letter about distributing smallpox infested blankets to native americans. I, for one, cannot stand by this.
The debate around athletics is clear: what screams out "white privilege" more than organized competition? Athletics is an easy target, like shooting fish in a barrel. But answer me this, is it not time we start talking about the real issues? The hard questions? The main media outlet on campus is named after one of the worst perpetrators of genocide in his century. I cannot stand idly by while the sports debate takes precedence over the renaming of the student newspaper. We are fed news DAILY by a source that is named after a MURDERER. I know if "The New York Times" were all of a sudden changed to "The Hitler Times," there would be much more of an uproar. Is it the administration that is turning a blind eye? There are a lot questions as to why the on campus media has yet to embrace a name change. Take a long hard look in the mirror students of Hitler College. You may not like what you see.
Students arguing to change the mascot aren't saying that we have to change the name of the college, the town, or Umass Amherst too. That kind of 'slippery slope' thinking is really unproductive. I think it's quite apparent that changing the mascot would be a symbolic act, rather than a political one, meant to express sympathy to those made uncomfortable by the College's association with Lord Jeffrey Amherst as well as to acknowledge the significance of atrocities he perpetuated. Changing the name of Amherst College or the town of Amherst is obviously a ridiculous and out of reach goal, but changing the mascot is a feasible task that convey a rejection, rather than celebration, of a man that was unquestionably associated with the oppression of native peoples. In other words, just because everything named after Lord Jeffrey Amherst won't be changed doesn't mean that changing the mascot has absolutely no meaning or value. On the contrary, it would represent Amherst's tangible and definitive stance against oppression that has otherwise gone unrecognized by this institution. If a mascot other than the Jeffs makes a population of marginalized students more comfortable and raises awareness of the significance of historical oppression, why shouldn't it be changed? Leaving behind the Lord Jeffs doesn't harm anyone, but keeping the mascot obviously does.
Lord Jeff is not actually our OFFICIAL mascot. Changing the mascot, then, wouldn't be so hard since Jeff was never actually officially approved in any way. If we can all agree he did morally reprehensible things that clearly make people feel uncomfortable, why not adopt a better mascot (an official one, at that)? I don't understand clinging to The Lord Jeff...is tradition really so important that you refuse to make a proactive step in making the campus more inclusive? All these people saying that this would only lead to changing the name of the school are silly...the school is named after the town and not the person, after all.
I won't attack mike for his privilege, but it's important he understands that he has it. Mike (and most of his friends) are very lucky and probably will not experience the same injustices many other students on campus have had to face their whole lives. Someone in his position should try his hardest not to be offended by angry comments (very few actually attack Mike as a person, and anyway, people who have been subject to unfair treatment their whole lives are allowed to be frustrated. Staying calm is possible only for the superhumanly patient OR people who haven't actually experienced the injustices...ie privileged people). What he (and his supporters) need to do is listen to what offended people are saying and think about it on a deeper level (a level beyond the initial "you called me a racist?? How DARE you, you sensitive liberal!"). If so many people are saying it, doesn't that mean there ought to be an inkling of validity there?
I'm didn't plan this comment, so I'm losing track of my argument (too many directions I can go from here), so I'll end it now. Ultimately, you have to ask yourself: how important is Lord Jeff to me, really? Is he so important that I am ok with making a significant portion of campus (and also, potential applicants) feel uncomfortable? Am I justified in disregarding all of these peoples feelings, just because Jeff is a tradition? And when exactly is it appropriate to change tradition, if the change will bring about a more inclusive community?
Bullshit, bullshit, everywhere...
Bullshit, bullshit, everywhere.
Move the college out of the town of Amherst, just to be safe.
This is article is great. The students that are pushing for a mascot switch are, in my opinion, quite selfish. This is not a cause to drive diversity and sensitivity, this is a coalition of students trying to make a name for themselves through change. The cause of the day.. Tisk tisk.
What's next? Not enough women's bathrooms in the library? Lol what a joke
It appears to me that a small group of students have begun to push this mascot-change through in a largely undemocratic process. There seems to also be substantial support coming from the top - namely, the administration and President Biddy Martin. While this is speculative, I have several questions to ask with the hopes of someone shedding some light:
1) Where did the funding come from for the statue of the moose in Frost?
2) Where did the funding come from for the Moose portrait in Johnson Chapel?
3) Where did the funding come from for the Moose outfit which was at the Homecoming football game?
It appears that the proposition of the moose as an alternate mascot may be a strategic move to reignite debate over the topic and at the very least, get supporters of the Lord Jeffs to the negotiating table to compromise with a mascot change. A nice strategy if you ask me: Present an extremely absurd and dumb mascot to the student-body, get the attention of the student body and alumni base, and then either push the Moose through or at least force a compromise.
I would assume that if a student is offended about having a mascot named after Lord Jeffrey AMHERST, that same prospective student would be even more strongly opposed to attending an institution, which holds the historical figure's last name. The argument that the name "Amherst College" or the "Lord Jeff Inn" is detached from the historical figure Lord Jeffrey Amherst is flawed. I find it hard to imagine that a majority of Native American prospective students, ostensibly offended by the actions of Jeffrey Amherst during a time of war, would buy into this distinction that the school was named after the town. I would also question why anti-Lord Jeff students are treating Native Americans as a homogenous group in this debate. Perhaps, the people whom oppose this article should consider changing the name of the school to AmhUrst. Or if that is still too similar to a person whom committed "genocide," Massachusetts College would suffice.
As a last point, somehow this debate has also resurfaced divides within our school, and the prospect that as a white male writing this article, this man is incapable of making a legitimate and empathetic argument. It is a shame that this debate has descended into commentary about white privilege. As a student body we are all united under the name of our school and the degree, which we receive upon graduation. Most people at the end of the day choose to come to this place because if you work hard, it will place you into a privileged position in society to implement the school's motto "Terras irradient,"and truly make a difference in the world. Not everyone in the world has that privilege and it is our responsibility to use it towards good ends. By our very nature of attending Amherst College, we are all privileged.
For those "in the know" about this, I hope you would please respond to my questions. Follow the money and that will lead to some answers on this...
It is really sad that instead of focusing on the related issues and engaging in dialogue and discussion, many of you have made this article an issue about athletes and non-athletes. Be careful- stereotypes are stereotypes, so practice what you preach.
I was really shocked to read one student posting something calling the writer of this article a "fucktard". Not only does that kind of language reflect poorly on the individual who used it, it is disgustingly hypocritical and insensitive.
I suggest that you each take a long, hard look at yourselves first.
As a native american jew I support the mascot being Lord Jeffery Amherst. Without history we have nothing.
In a rational environment the moose statue and painting would not be installed by dead of night (with what must be administrative approval or else how would they get there without signs of a break in?) in spaces such as Johnson Chapel and Frost. Also, did anyone in the administration (particularly the development office) hear the alumni at Homecoming booing the Moose whenever it came near the alumni?
This comments section just goes to show what happens when you start letting poor black (and brown) people into Amherst. Complete and total cultural decline...maybe we should go back to the good ol' days when everyone was articulate and refined (and not urban trash). Good job, Mike, for voicing your opinion! I hope you can put your classmates into place.
Literally why the fuck are all these random '76ers commenting on this? Why do they feel inclined to have any say whatsoever in what we choose is best for our community? Go back to your mutual funds and golf and stop creeping on the student newspaper of your alma mater. Your glory days are over, sorry.
A college is a dynamic, changing place that is "owned" by many people, who have different experiences... some are current contemporaries with their own views of what Amherst is and means to them, now, and others are faculty and staff and alumni who have passed through with their own memories of their time at the college. I haven't thought about who has the authority (right, responsibility) to choose what is "best for our community," but I do believe all stakeholders who care are entitled to express their opinions.
Worse, you decide to put "M.D." with your name in the comments like oh that would give you some kind of credibility but no literally FUCK YOU GUYS
Public forum KG, whether you like it or not. Many alumni read the articles in the Student and still care about everything that happens at Amherst. Talk about changing the mascot to a moose gets our attention. BTW we help fund the operational budget that allows you the freedom to behave as you do. Your warm and insightful remarks inadvertently help make my earlier point, that anonymous posts aren't constructive in a legitimate debate. Show me something and sign your name the next time you make a "contribution."
I mean, I certainly hope the "M.D." designation represents some sort of credibility. The '76ers could go back "to their mutual funds and golf" and cut ties with the school but then we wouldn't have any money to burn and buy massive moose statues to display in the library :'(
It is quite unfortunate that we have to walk this line with the alums.
I wonder if they keep commenting because they're all privileged white men who have never once been told that their opinions don't matter and they've always been validated their entire lives. Nah, I bet it's because they know more about the goings on of the school than us!!!! I can't imagine anyone more qualified to talk about this than someone who graduated 40 years ago!! And look! I'm commenting anonymously! The horror!!!! I can't imagine anything more terrifying than technology moving forward because social media is a force that can only be used for evil! How dare things not be EXACTLY like the 70s!!!!!!!!!
If you don't like the mascot and are offended by it, why did you come here? If you didn't know the history, then whose fault is that.
@common sense that's such a weak argument. People who live and work at this institution have every right to push for changes to it. Amherst is an awesome place full of awesome people, it deserves an equally awesome and non-genocidal mascot.
Dear Mike,
I agree that The Lord Jeff mascot represents you well!
Change the name of the Town and the College... He was Hitler of the 18th century..
TL:DR. Lord Jeff was a great guy 10/10 would recommend.
When the argument has devolved to the inane point of pulling out the ultimate Hitler trump card, it's time to step back, take a breath and look, in Hegelian terms, for a little synthesis. Reasoned and informed discussion is necessary as is an understanding of historical context so the mistakes of the past are not repeated. (As of yet, I'm not aware that any professional historian has weighed on there being conclusive proof of Jeffery Amherst's actions (anymore than there is conclusive proof to the assertion that the Mongols introduced the pestilence to Europe in the Middle Ages.) Instead of constructively and expertly addressing issues in depth, a myopic overzealous political correctness, another form of fundamentalism, runs rampant in our current society and infuses too much of the argumentation. Should we rename the State of Washington, tear down the Washington monument, remove Washington's visage from the one-dollar bill because our first president owned slaves? (He, of course, made provision for freeing them upon his wife's death.) It is arrogant to think that any one faction sits in such a privileged position to have the definitive answer. Even if Jeffery Amherst could be found conclusively guilty of actions we today find unethical, it does not contradict that the present day Jeffs can now stand in opposition to such action and like society as a whole have progressed to a point of acknowledging the past mistakes while choosing to promote a different course of action, led by a more ethical and enlightened perspective.
Just to clarify, I don't attend Amherst. My father is an alumnus and my brother currently attends. Attending a different liberal arts college named after a great man from the past, I take great pride in connecting myself to his triumphs and strive to live up to his beliefs. If he was as tainted as Lord Jeffrey, I would have no pride in that. I thought my school was having an identity crisis, but goddamn, this is sad. As the school strives to get more diverse, it must be willing to separate itself from it's past. The moose is stupid, but the Lord Jeffrey is disgraceful.

Granger on Movies: 'Transcendence'
Following is Westport News movie reviewer Susan Granger's review of the new movie, "Transcendence:"
In the motion picture industry, it's often difficult to make the career transition from cinematographer to director because, often, when cameramen direct they make the fatal mistake of concentrating visual imagery, as opposed to storytelling. And Wally Pfister, renowned collaborator of Christopher Nolan's who won an Oscar for filming "Inception" (2011), falls into this trap.
The story begins in the near future -- after the information superhighway has been derailed. Cellphones litter the streets and a computer keyboard makes a convenient doorstop.
As the narrator, neurobiologist Max Walters (Paul Bettany), recalls the "unstoppable collision between mankind and technology," flashbacks begin. Five years earlier, research scientist Dr. Will Caster (Johnny Depp) and his wife/collaborator Evelyn (Rebecca Hall) were developing a sentient computer called PINN (Physically Independent Neural Network). Think of omniscient HAL 9000 in "2001: A Space Odyssey."
The triumph of artificial intelligence over human individualism terrifies RIFT (Revolutionary Independence From Technology), a militant rebel group led by Bree (Kate Mara), who launch a deadly series of terror attacks around the country. A radiation-laced bullet leaves Will dying, as Evelyn and their colleague Max upload his consciousness into PINN, which is moved to a hastily constructed $38 million data center in the southern California desert that's powered by thousands of solar panels. Soon Will/PINN becomes digitally omnipotent, creating creepy, obedient nano-zombies that horrify Will's former associate (Morgan Freeman) and an FBI agent (Cillian Murphy).
The ethical conflict inherent in mind control is an intriguing concept, but first-time screenwriter Jack Paglen's muddled, simplistic, highly derivative thriller is filled with blandly one-dimensional characters speaking confusing techno-babble.
Calling Pfister's directing heavy-handed is an understatement; there's no sense of danger, tension or emotional connection in his tediously slow pacing. And director of photography Jess Hall comes up with too many slow-motion droplets of water and ascending flares filled with energy particles. Sci-fi was far better served by Steven Spielberg's "A.I.: Artificial Intelligence" and Spike Jonze's "Her."
On the Granger Movie Gauge of 1 to 10, "Transcendence" is a terminally boring 2. What a waste of talent and money!

ATLANTA, Jan. 17, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Georgia Power is now offering workplace charging to its employees throughout the state. The program is part of ECOtality's (Nasdaq:ECTY) Electric Vehicle (EV) Project – a public-private partnership with the Department of Energy that evaluates the effectiveness of EV charger infrastructure. Georgia Power is the first company in the state to participate in the program.
Beginning today, Georgia Power is making 10 smart chargers available to employees at its headquarters in Atlanta to enable EV charging while at work. The company will also add additional chargers at other business locations around the state. Data captured from the chargers will be used to gain insight on workplace charging effectiveness and offer strategies for better use of charger infrastructure assets.
Georgia Power hopes to maximize employees' electric vehicle range and encourage adoption of proven transportation technologies among workers and customers. Some employees may be able to double their daily driving range, and for the first time, long distance commuters can consider electric vehicles as an option.
"Offering this option to our employees is just another way we're showing our commitment to the electric transportation industry," said Mike Hazelton, Georgia Power's vice president of marketing. "Our participation in this project allows us to further explore innovative ways to help our customers save money, use energy efficiently and help the environment."
Hazelton added that it is estimated that in the next 10 years, 5 to 10 percent of new cars on the road in Georgia will be fueled in whole, or in part, by electricity. "It is our belief that this program will serve as a model for the Southeast."
"By installing electric vehicle charging stations at their corporate office, Georgia Power is leading by example in a region where EV adoption will rise substantially over the course of the next few years," said Ravi Brar, CEO of ECOtality, Inc. "We are pleased to work with Georgia Power as they demonstrate their market leadership in the electric transportation industry."
Georgia Power is the largest subsidiary of Southern Company, one of the nation's largest generators of electricity. The company is an investor-owned, tax-paying utility with rates below the national average. Georgia Power serves 2.4 million customers in all but four of Georgia's 159 counties.
