In 1920 Frederick Jackson Turner published The frontier in American history, a book which became important for the understanding of America. It asserted that "the existence of an area of free land, its continuous recession, and the advance of American settlement westward, explain American development." And further, "The true point of view in the history of this nation is not the Atlantic coast, it is the Great West." Many historians do not agree with this thesis, but the "Great West" has been discussed much by scholars, has helped shape American myth (and possibly character), and remains a constant ingredient in novels, music, movies, and television.
For much of their history the AnabaptistsAnabaptism and Mennonites have also been a frontier people. They have felt some of the same pressures to which Turner refers -- the need for more land, desire for adventure, economic opportunity, "let's leave the past behind and start over" -- but the single primary factor has usually been persecution. During most of the 16th century most of the Anabaptists fled simply to save their lives or were expelled upon threat of death if they returned. The impulse to survive drove them into the wilderness, to the frontiers of their day and, strange as it may seem, even some 20th-century Mennonite migrations have been what seemed to the migrants a search for survival, now not so much physically as culturally and, they would say, spiritually.
No fewer than 167 edicts or mandates were issued against the Anabaptists and Mennonites by various authorities from 1525 to 1599, demanding suppression, exile, or death, and an additional 55 from 1601 to 1761. Thus those who survived were truly forced to become the church in the wilderness (Ezekiel 19:12-14, Hebrews 11, cf.Martyrs' Mirror). Limited tolerance came first in the Netherlands, in the North in the 1570s and in the South in the 1590s, but various dukes, counts, and nobles gave them shelter earlier also, as did Countess Anna of Friesland in 1541. Moravia proved to be a particular haven of refuge for Anabaptists as early as 1526. It is estimated that from 20,000 to 30,000 found shelter there, including leaders like Balthasar Hubmaier and Hans Hut.
Eventually the Hutterian Brethren became the largest of the groups in Moravia, continuing their "Golden Period" until about 1600. The Hutterites were not only excellent agriculturists, but also excelled in many trades and crafts like ceramics (pottery), cutlery, clocks of all sizes, weavers, tailors, agricultural tools, milling, shoemaking. A total of 39 vocations were listed in their Chronicle (Gross). A few even became barber-surgeons serving the health needs of common people and nobility alike, being called to Prague and to various castles and monasteries (Friedmann). These skills obviously made the local authorities tolerant and eager to retain the Hutterites. Yet there was, since the 15th century Hussite wars, also a long tradition of religious tolerance in the region. Some nobles also found the faith of the Anabaptists attractive. It is believed that Johann of Liechtenstein, lord of Nikolsburg, received believers baptism.
Prussia, and Poland
Because of severe persecution, Anabaptists fled from the southern Netherlands, now Belgium, to the north and along the Baltic coastline to Bremen, Hamburg, and Danzig (Gdansk) beginning in the 1530s. Some of the refugees settled in Danzig, which was a part of West Prussia as was the Vistula Delta, including Marienburg (Marbork). Most of the Mennonites, however, initially located in East Prussia in the area around Koenigsberg (Kaliningrad).
Anabaptists (Schwenckfelders?) were found in Marienburg, as early as 1526 (Penner, Ansiedlung mennonitischer Niederlaender). It is likely that they came from Moravia. By 1530 the number of Anabaptists had increased, but the largest influx came from the Netherlands. In a letter dated May 2, 1534, the city council of Danzig asked the authorities in Emden, Amsterdam and Antwerp to certify the passenger lists of ships going to Danzig to prevent Anabaptists from going there, but they went anyway, either as stowaways or overland or with the quiet connivance of ship captains.
No early evidence has been found to show that Prussian authorities seriously tried to prevent the Anabaptist immigration despite the warnings and edicts against them. The authorities of several Baltic-rim Hanseatic League cities, including Danzig, did plan to meet in Luneberg on July 1, 1535, to find ways of coping with the problem, but it is not clear whether the meeting took place. In any case, the substantial migration from the Netherlands was to continue for many years. In 1549 Menno Simons visited the region and, a year later, Dirk Philips became permanent elder until his death on a trip to Emden in 1568.
Why were they tolerated? Not least, probably, because they were quiet and peace-loving citizens, but primarily because they proved to be a powerful economic asset. The Polish-Prussian War of 1519-1521 had devastated the region. The Anabaptists, in this case the Dutch Mennonites, were not only hard workers but also knew from life in their homeland how to drain the swamps of the Vistula River delta, build windmills, and restore or establish thriving new agricultural communities. Bringing the delta lands under control was to take the better part of a century and, in fact, became a constant challenge.
Royal Hapsburg pressure eventually did force authorities to ask the Mennonites to leave (East) Prussia, but they found a ready welcome nearby in West (Polish) Prussia. Other Mennonite refugees soon took their place again in the east. Even the Roman Catholic bishop of Lesslau refused to expel them, despite repeated urging by the authorities, because he needed their economic skills (Peter Klassen). Polish nobility maintained a considerable degree of autonomy in the 16th century and were often open to new religious movements. Many "heretics" found shelter on their estates (Ratzlaff, Unruh).
We conclude from these accounts and those which follow that being an economic asset was to become a major, if not primary, reason for tolerating Mennonites in Moravia, The Netherlands, the Palatinate, Canada, the United States, and wherever they went, not least in Latin America, throughout their entire history to the late 20th century. They came to be known as self-sufficient, hardworking, frugal, and peaceful on the most difficult frontiers. There have also, however, been many examples of tolerance in principle, regardless of economics, as illustrated in Moravia and, notably in the 16th century, by Duke Philipp of Hesse (Littell) and William of Orange of The Netherlands.
Social, agricultural, and economic pressures eventually caused many Prussian Mennonites to accept the invitation of Catherine II of Russia to migrate to the Ukraine beginning in 1789. The expulsion of the Tatars and Turks from that region made it necessary to occupy and restore the land. The earliest movements brought ca. 1,550 Prussian Mennonite families to the Ukraine. A barren new frontier awaited them. Migrations from Prussia continued into the 1860s but Mennonites in Russia also moved to new frontiers within Russia, particularly through the founding of daughter colonies. By 1914 there were ca. 120,000 Mennonites in Russia. During World War II those Mennonites who survived the Stalin purges were again resettled on new frontiers in Asiatic Russia and Siberia.
While the Mennonites were only a small portion of European immigrants to Russia, they had become aware of their own unique economic power and used it as leverage to secure special privileges, a practice which had already begun partially in Prussia. A 20-point petition requesting both limited and. perpetual guarantees was submitted to the Russian authorities and largely granted, with the special consent of Catherine II (D. H. Epp). This was known as the Privilegium and set a precedent that has continued to the present in other contexts. Many of the articles applied to matters of faith and culture. If these were threatened or broken in the course of time, many Mennonites (often the more conservative?) packed up and left for a new frontier. This accounted for the 1870s migration from Russia to Canada and the United States.
Canada and the United States
A major reason for Mennonite success on hostile frontiers has been their cooperation among themselves, normally settling in colonies with a centralized economy and administration This was particularly true in Russia. The degree of Mennonite cooperation was not as intense as that of Hutterian communalism which allowed no private property, but interdependence and mutual aid often became the key to survival.
Thus the advance parties sent to investigate North America in 1873 looked for large tracts of land suitable for colony settlement. They were not disappointed in Canada, where the Secretary of Agriculture presented them with a 15-point Privilegium which included the two key guarantees of block settlement and exemption from military service (F. H. Epp). A similar request in the U. S. Congress failed, despite powerful advocacy in the Senate based on the economic asset the new settlers would become (Smith). Land distribution seemed to be the prerogative of the railroads and military recruitment and conscription were under the jurisdiction of the states. Mennonites were well-known in both countries, of course, since their settlement in Germantown in 1683, and in Upper Canada (Ontario), in 1786. The Dutch Mennonite Plockboy had even earlier established a short-lived utopian communitarian colony at Horekill on the Delaware River, 1663-64.
Because of these developments the Mennonite immigrants to Canada in the 1870s did settle on "reserves" provided especially for them, while the larger number immigrating to the United States settled in less compact communities in the Midwest. It may be that the Mennonite (sectarian) work ethic played a role in securing special privileges both in Canada and the United States. Their history as successful pioneers on difficult frontiers was well known. Yet most religious groups were tolerated on the North American frontier. Mennonites were not above the laws of the land. They too went West until the frontier was gone (1890?).
When World War I came, tolerance became one of its casualties. In Canada it led to some Mennonite emigration to Mexico and Paraguay; in the United States to harassment and suffering. While Mennonites, along with many other groups, did seek lands where they might preserve their identity in isolation, and, where they did not emigrate, language temporarily replaced geography as a boundary marker. In time they inevitably became a part of the developing Canadian mosaic of peoples and of the U.S. melting pot.
Latin America
Because many Mennonites believed the Canadian government had not held to the terms of the privilegium large numbers of Old Colony and Sommerfeld Mennonites immigrated to Paraguay and to Mexico between 1922 and 1927. In Paraguay the requested privileges were guaranteed by Decreto Ley (law) 514 in 1921 and similar guarantees were secured by presidential decree in Mexico. Nowhere did the Mennonites encounter a more difficult frontier in their entire history than in the "green hell" of the Chaco, except perhaps in Siberian slave labor communities. But in time they made the desert bloom even in the Chaco (Friesen). Pioneering in Mexico was also difficult, but climate and roads were more manageable. Still, it was a barren, windswept frontier when they came (Fretz, Redekop, Sawatzky).
New groups of Mennonites entered the Chaco and Brazil in 1930, but in the latter without the privilege of exemption from military service. (Alternative service for conscientious objectors was written into the Brazilian constitution only in 1988.) Eventually new frontiers were found in Bolivia and Belize and, in the 1980s, in Argentina. During the 1980s new Mennonite immigrants traveled from Mexico to Texas as well as to Nova Scotia and other parts of Canada. Cheese and dairy products have become a major Mennonite contribution to the economies and human welfare of their new homelands, as have many other products and services. In Paraguay the development and production of wheat suitable to that climate turned the nation from complete reliance on imports to becoming a wheat-exporting country.
The era of special privilege in return for national economic gain may be over. Laws have changed, some because of Mennonite influence, but they are assumed to apply to all people, with some exceptions in Latin America. The movement has been from persecution to toleration to special privileges (privilegium) to integration or assimilation. First-generation Anabaptists did not ask for special privilege. What they claimed to be biblically right and true for themselves they claimed for all believers. The movement has come full circle.
Geographical frontiers have largely disappeared. The frontiers of faith and witness, but also occasional cultural distinctives, have taken their place as, for example, among the Amish, Old Order and Old Colony Mennonites. The absence of background literature about Mennonite frontiers in Asia and Africa made it seem prudent not to include them here though we do have some information on Indonesia and Australia.
In its time the frontier gave Mennonites the isolation they wanted, but not always for their good. Faith and culture atrophy in isolation, of which there are examples in the Mennonite experience, but the frontier also encourages faith, driving pioneers to their spiritual roots. The frontier fosters idealism, vision, self-reliance, and a certain individualism, yet invariably also interdependence and community. It provides opportunity for growth and experimentation. The frontier allows something new to emerge in all areas of human experience. Leadership emerges. Institutions flourish. The virtues of sharing and caring are nurtured on the frontier. Life and death take on new meaning. Persecution and frontiers have been primary motifs in shaping Mennonite identity.

Captain's Report
By Capt. Rob Smith
I tested this model the previous year and my only real suggestion was to add a seat since I was rather uncomfortable standing for long periods of time and figured you, as a fisherman, might also find the same thing. Well, Smoker Craft listens to its customers and others. This year, the biggest difference is the addition of a seat which I really appreciate. Of course, there were a few other changes. Let's review.
This is an all welded design with no-wood construction that can take the beating of real use in the shallows, yet you can slip it off the trailer again without worrying about the fact that you bumped a hidden rock putting into the swim mode. Endurance, performance, and stocking up on game are what this rig is all about.New on the stern
Across the stern is another minor change that could be significant for some. It used to have an open design without a stern platform. Now, you have about 30" and nearly the width of the beam as a platform to stand on or to add a fishing seat for casting while seated. Stepping from starboard to port, I felt like the boat maintained good stability, enough that I could switch sides casting and not put myself or my fishing partner in the drink. This platform also shades the batteries which will help protect them from inadvertent damage or contact (if you forget to use a battery box and lid!) and keeps them out of harsh sunlight and rain.New at the center console
As I said, I am happy with the addition of the helm seat. Choosing to have this seat adds room for a carry-on cooler nested below, and with a flip-flop seat back design you can relax while keeping watch over the stern of the boat. The helm itself is the same fiberglass pod design from last year. Most builders will make this out of welded aluminum, but this design saves weight and looks nicer.Gunwales and deck
The gunwales are wide enough to use as a step onboard and you could add some trolling gear if you really needed it. There is an aluminum tray about halfway down where you can toss some loose tackle or other small gear. Smoker Craft put a vinyl edging on it to protect your gear and your hands from cuts. Three rods can be stored under the gunwales in racks.
The deck on the 1866 Bass and Bay really stands out from most of its competition. Rather than a welded aluminum deck, which understandably is utilitarian and easy to care for, or plywood that increases potential sources of rot, the American Angler 1866 Bass and Bay has a composite deck that should last a lifetime. Underneath the deck is the centerline fuel tank keeping the weight better distributed, part of the reason this rig handled so well.On the bow
The bow raised deck is always helpful. It gets you up to see the fish better or to peer over a blind and scan the area. The 1866 has a bow deck area that covers 66" by 76". In the center is a base to add a casting chair if you feel you need it. To encourage more fishing in the southern climates, the builder includes a pre-rigged trolling motor connection.Specifications
The overall length of the 1866 Bass and Bay is 18'. She has a beam of 7'10" and a dry weight of 980 lbs. without the engine. The family vehicle (if it is designed for towing) will certainly be able to tow this rig to most any spot you want to launch from. Bottom and side gauge aluminum is 0.100 gauge. Interior freeboard is 24" maximum depth in the cockpit. Maximum capacity is 1400 lbs. and maximum rated horsepower is 80. She carries 18 gallons of fuel in her centerline fuel tank.Testing
The 1866 Bass and Bay was far more comfortable to me with the seat, as I continue to point out. If you want to maximize room onboard and don't mind standing while driving, then opt out of the seat. When driving, the only thing I really noticed other than good handling was that my arms tired after awhile. Small engines don't normally offer hydraulic steering, so if you are used to it like I am, you notice it when you don't have it. When I made sharp turns, the only slip I noticed was if I forgot to throttle back or trim down a bit, both things you should do before making hard-over turning maneuvers. She is up on plane in 2.7 seconds like a flats boat should be, and hitting 30 mph in 6.5 seconds, but a more reasonable cruising speed is around 18 mph, allowing you to conserve fuel so you can stay out longer.Conclusions
Smoker Craft, the parent company, targeted a rig that was more widely applicable. It has performed well in the northern areas. With the addition of another casting platform at the stern, she is also a rig that can work the southern areas and coastal bays. Simple, smart and performs well. Other than coming pre-stocked with bait, what more could you ask for?

WikiLeaks said it planned to release from Monday over five million emails from Stratfor Global Intelligence, a provider of geopolitical analysis, whose website was hacked and emails and customer data stolen in December.
The whistle blower site said the emails date from between July, 2004 and late December, 2011, and allegedly contain privileged information about the US government's attacks against WikiLeaks and its founder Julian Assange and Stratfor's own attempts to subvert WikiLeaks. They also allegedly reveal controversial practices by Stratfor in cultivating sources, and targeting of individuals for corporate and government clients, WikiLeaks said.
Stratfor claimed Monday that mails stolen during the December hack apparently will be published by WikiLeaks. "This is a deplorable, unfortunate - and illegal - breach of privacy," it said. "Some of the emails may be forged or altered to include inaccuracies; some may be authentic. We will not validate either".
WikiLeaks did not disclose its source for the emails it is leaking to over 25 media outlets and activists. Hacker group Anonymous said in a Twitter message that it gave the Stratfor emails to WikiLeaks. Transparency, whether forced or voluntary, is a necessity to understand our world, it said.
Stratfor said in January that it got an alert in December that its website had been hacked and customer credit card and other information had been stolen by Anonymous. Its website was hacked again on December 24. Stratfor denied the hackers' claim that the data was a list of "private clients" but rather a list of members who may have purchased a publication.
"As one person said, the credit cards were extra, something they took when they realised they could. It was our email they were after," George Friedman, CEO of Stratfor said.
Within Anonymous there were some hackers in December who were opposed to the hacking of Stratfor.

Governor Deval Patrick Thursday strongly denied he was forcing any of his departing four Cabinet secretaries to leave, including two who have been caught up in recent controversies.
At a State House press conference where both the current and incoming secretaries appeared, Patrick said that in an effort to prevent his administration from falling into a lame duck malaise, he had asked all his secretaries to give him a two-year commitment or to leave.
He heaped praise on each of the departing secretaries and brushed off suggestions that any of them were departing because of a spate of bad publicity that has hit his administration.
He particularly pushed back when asked whether Secretary of Health and Human Services JudyAnn Bigby was being forced out because of her responses to two major controversies on her watch.
In one scandal, a chemist at a drug lab run by the Department of Public Health allegedly mishandled drug evidence, throwing thousands of cases into jeopardy. In another scandal, a compounding pharmacy in Framingham whose regulation was overseen by the same department has been blamed for a deadly meningitis outbreak.
"There's going to be, in large organizations, things that go wrong . . . and the leaders who matter and the ones who succeed, just like each of these, are the ones who step up and fix things that go wrong,'' Patrick said.
Patrick again took responsibility for the patronage hiring of Sheila Burgess as the state's highway safety director, despite Burgess's lack of experience and a driving record full of crashes and speeding tickets.
Burgess resigned last month after the Globe broke news of her driving background. The Globe has reported that Public Safety Secretary Mary Beth Heffernan, then an undersecretary, interviewed Burgess as part of the hiring process. Heffernan said last week that the hiring process was "seriously flawed" and "unacceptable."
Heffernan's name has surfaced recently as a potential judicial nominee. Patrick declined to discuss her possible nomination, other than to say he was sure she would be a great judge.
"That's all I will say about that right now,'' the governor said.
The Globe reported Thursday that, besides Heffernan and Bigby, Administration and Finance Secretary Jay Gonzalez and Education Secretary Paul Reville were leaving the administration.
Heffernan will be replaced by Suffolk County Sheriff Andrea Cabral.
Bigby will be replaced by John Polanowicz, president of St. Elizabeth's Medical Center in Brighton, the largest hospital in the Steward Health Care system.
Gonzalez will be replaced by Glen Shor, a top deputy before leaving the secretariat in June 2010 to run the state's Health Connector program.
Reville will be replaced by Matthew Malone, the outgoing superintendent of the Brockton public schools.
Malone became available after he and the Brockton School Committee agreed last month to end their five-year contract a year early.
The deal was struck after the seven-member committee gave Malone a composite review score of 2.77 out of 5 for his third year at the helm of the state's fourth-largest public school system.
Energy and Environmental Affairs Secretary Richard Sullivan, Housing and Economic Development Secretary Greg Bialecki, Elder Affairs Secretary Ann L. Hartstein, Labor and Workforce Development Secretary Joanne Goldstein, Secretary of Veterans' Services Coleman Nee, and Transportation Secretary Richard Davey are remaining in their posts.Frank Phillips can be reached at email@example.com.

JOBS ARE HERE! Knauf looking for workers
THEY'RE on the hunt for Bundy's best and brightest.
But you don't necessarily need advanced qualifications for a chance at the latest round of jobs at the Knauf plasterboard factory - which is rapidly taking shape at the Bundaberg Port.
You just have to be enthusiastic, a team player, and have an eye for detail.
"It's not just a clock-in, clock-out role," production manager Tim Foster said of the 20 new operator roles.
Knauf is looking for people with "immense pride in what they do", he said.
"It's a family here."
Management, supervisor and core mix positions have already been filled, plant manager Justin Weier said, with trades and laboratory positions still to come.
"We're launching the bulk recruitment for the factory operator and distribution roles," he said.
"We have relatively small production teams so they are close teams, and that gives individuals a chance to make their mark."
Mr Weier described the plant as "green field, state of the art, so we're looking to build a business that is the benchmark in the region.
"We want people like us who are excited by that."
You may ask, will locals have a chance? The answer: definitely.
"All of the operator roles to date have gone to locals," Mr Weier said.
He is Bundaberg born and bred, and returned when the Knauf opportunity arose.
"It's great for someone who may not have done a trade and feel their career could take a new turn.
"We've had people who have worked in kitchens, as cleaners, retail, miners.
"You don't have to have qualifications, you have to demonstrate in what you have done that you have those qualities; that you have adhered to procedures (for example)."
Tasks will include forklift movement, quality checks, and "feeding the beast", ensuring a steady flow of materials.
The work is shift work, and the factory will eventually be up and running 24 hours, five days a week.
The facility is on track to start production mid-August, Mr Weier said, with commissioning scheduled for mid-July.
Applying for jobs
Could you be the next production and distribution operator at the new Knauf factory? You need to "bring your A-game".
Plant manager Justin Weier said he had been impressed with the calibre of applicants in Bundaberg for roles at the plant so far.
"It would blow your socks off," how highly skilled many local jobseekers are, he said.
Production manager Tim Foster said he had fielded more than 100 applicants for previous roles.
There are four categories of operator roles now open: distribution, mill, dry end and additive.
The company's core values include "passion, honesty, integrity, enthusiasm and a strong work ethic".
Other requisites include:
- A current forklift licence (or the willingness to obtain one);
- Respect and adherence to all safety practices;
- Ownership of performance and quality for your designated area;
- High-level communication and problem-solving skills'
- Ability to work and make sound decisions under pressure;
- Ability to lead and coach others; and
- Ability and willingness to adhere to standard operating conditions.

CRS report number: RL32870
Author(s): Shirley Kan, Kristin Archick, and Richard F. Grimmett, Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division
Date: January 26, 2006
- Abstract
- The European Union (EU) is considering lifting its arms embargo on China, which was imposed in response to the June 1989 Tiananmen Crackdown. France, Germany, and other EU members claim that the embargo hinders the development of a "strategic partnership" with China. The Bush Administration and Members of Congress strongly oppose an end to the EU's arms embargo and urge stronger arms export controls. The United States contends that engagement with China need not send the wrong signals on China's human rights record and military buildup that threatens a peaceful resolution of Taiwan and other Asian issues.

Error connecting
If you get an error like
ssh: connect to host 192.168.0.202 port 22: No route to host
when you try to ssh, it could most probably be because one of your other network interfaces (wired/wireless) is being assigned an IP address of the form 192.168.0.* ,because of which the routing table contains a default gateway entry that is confusing poor new usb0 interface.
The easiest way to work around this is to specify a tighter netmask for usb0 like:
sudo ifconfig usb0 inet 192.168.0.200 netmask 255.255.255.240

- I assume you're using gcc4 (gcc-config -l). Qemu fails to build if you use gcc4 as it only builds with gcc3 at this time. More information:
How to do a downgrade to gcc3 just for Qemu: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-537643-highlight-qemu.html - be aware, though, that the kernel modules may not load if you built the kernel with gcc4, so a kernel recompilation may be in order also. Abraxa 19:38, 7 April 2007 (CEST)
I encountered the same problem, but I still had a gcc3 installed (gcc-3.4.6-r1 in a seperate slot from the system default gcc4, to be exact. This means that if you're using gentoo, you will not need to downgrade your system gcc). I simply added --cc=gcc-3.4.6 to ./configure's switches and make finished without major problems. --LordHelmchen 20:12, 11 April 2007 (CEST)
If you still encounter this problem with gcc3, make sure you don't have -march set anywhere like in CFLAGS (I had -march=athlon-xp). unsetting CFLAGS before re-running the configure script solved the problem for me. --Vegar 22:10, 24 April 2007 (CEST)
If nothing else works, you should try to use gcc-3.3.* (tested using the x86-chroot as building environment) --Mathias
Basic question
I am using the emulator after compiling 'make qemu'. The basic gui screen has been created and it asks the following:
'Touch the crosshairs to calibrate the screen'
Unfortunately I do not know how to continue from this stage on... Any mouse click on the crosshairs, or a keyboard touch won't initiate a click...
Does any body know how can I click the emulator screen and continue from this stage? --nighthawk 01:12, 9 April 2007
I use mouse click and it works --Filippo 22:16, 8 April 2007 (CEST)
I find a single click will not register. Which makes sense if you think about a fingerpress on the screen. I hold down the mouse and wiggle it a bit to get the buttons to register. -- DonPark 8Apr07
Still got problem with enabling the mouse. I tried according to the QEMU guide to see which mice are available under what I used. (ALT-CTRL-2, command 'mice info') and there was only the following:
- Mouse #0: QEMU S3C2410-driven Touchscreen
Does anybody got the same problem as I got? --nighthawk 04:14am, 9 April 2007

flash.sh fails
Try installing lynx (sudo apt-get install lynx) and run the openmoko/download.sh again, then it should work.
looks like I'm somehow getting a variable confused... when I try to run flash.sh with no arguments, I get a bunch of errors from sleep telling me that items such as `nand' for instance is an invalid time. I've encountered this problem both from the makefile and from a manual download. From what I can deduce, $2 should contain the number of (micro?)seconds for sleep to wait, but it looks like there's a target list, or some series of commands that are getting crosswired in.
If it helps, I'm running ubuntu fiesty X64
any help would be appreciated
Thank you,
--JeffAndros 21:32, 30 June 2007 (CEST)
Hi Jeff,
I had the same output, and in my case the problem was that my image hadn't built. I guess the flash.sh script behaves this way if there is no image (todo: it would be good to modify the script to first check for an image, and if it is missing, report it as such and exit.).

Compiling QEMU with SUSE 10.2
- Install gcc version 3.3.6. It can be downloaded from http://gcc.cybermirror.org/releases/gcc-3.3.6/gcc-core-3.3.6.tar.gz, for example. After unpacking it somewhere do
cd gcc-3.3.6/ ./configure --prefix=/home/archive/moko/gcc33 --program-suffix=-3.3 make bootstrap make install
Please replace /home/archive/moko/gcc33 with a path of your choice, since it will be the one where gcc33 will be installed.
- Add the following line in file openmoko/trunk/src/host/qemu-neo1973/usb-linux.c to get it compiled:
#include <sys/ioctl.h> #include <linux/compiler.h> <-- ADD THIS! #include <linux/usbdevice_fs.h>
(Hint found at http://osdir.com/ml/emulators.kvm.devel/2007-01/msg00101.html)
The next steps depend on what method you use to compile stuff:
- If you are using MokoMakefile, as I do, edit Makefile around line 266 to involve gcc33:
$${OMDIR}/openmoko/trunk/src/host/qemu-neo1973/configure \ --target-list=arm-softmmu \ --cc=/home/archive/moko/gcc33/bin/gcc-3.3) [ -e build/qemu/openmoko ] || \
- Manually on the command line:
./configure --target-list=arm-softmmu --cc=/home/archive/moko/gcc33/bin/gcc-3.3 make
Please remember to use the path you chose above for gcc33!
- Finally run
make qemu

calibration problem
by using the current makefile for 2007.2 on 64bit ubuntu I was not able to point to buttons on the qemu screen correctly due to a calibration issue. it seems that i had to imagine the screen turned around by 90° clockwise and only by guessing where the buttons would be I was able to open up the console and did a ts_calibrate to re orientate the screen - now everything works as expected.
Same problem here with a ubuntu 32bit running 2007.2. How did you do the ts_calibrate? It's already difficult for getting in the terminal (on the phone), but then I couldn't find the onscreen keyboard. How do you activate it? Dolfje 13:03, 21 August 2007 (CEST) - the mokomakefile runs qemu with your keyboard as an usb device so you can use it to type. JoSch 17:57, 25 August 2007 (CEST)
Again same problem :) Would really like to try this out, but it is hard without calibration. 14:29 (CEST) Saturday, August 25 2007
Run qemu with the -portrait option to make the calibration at least match qemu's input orientation (which should be enough to start a terminal and type ts_calibrate for further calibration). Adding "-usbdevice keyboard" enables the USB keyboard. --Danielmewes 19:39, 28 August 2007 (CEST)
Segfault when flash.sh runs / 'bad magic number' error from qemu
I had an issue where make qemu and make flash-qemu-official both had a segfault when running flash.sh then when running make run-qemu I got errors from the bootloader about a 'bad magic number'.
The quick fix (per Mek in #openmoko) is to comment out the line in flash.sh that reads 'nand createbbt' .
Hangs at setenv bootcmd

Hi all,
Looking at kiting as a way to get back into the mountains. I have all the usual water kite gear and snowboarding gear. I'm wondering what pieces of kit I will need to add to be able to kite this winter.
What sort of harness are you all using with winter clothes? Any specific stuff to bring besides basic backcountry gear? Is there any reason my current all mountain snowboard and boots won't work?
I know foil kites are popular but is there any reason other than wear and tear that I cant ride my SLE bow kites in the snow?
Any really important bits of info that may not be obvious coming for my background of water kiting?
Thanks and hope to see ya in the snow this winter!!

The standard RS6 has 560 horsepower making it quite stout. The new RS7 has the same amount but it is likely this "Plus" trim would also be available on the new RS7. Also keep in mind Audi has done an RS6 plus before specifically with the C5 which received roughly a 30 horse bump so the precedent for a sportier and more powerful RS6 by Audi has already been set.
Oh and more power isn't all that is on the agenda. The RS Plus models are supposed to get extra weight savings as well as Quattro division boss Stephan Reil stated, "A Plus model could have more power, or less weight, and a Plus model should always handle differently to the standard car."
Way to step your game up Audi, respect.

New Song Day
Because fuck it. I don't think I've actually posted this one here yet. Wasn't going to post any more material until we had a full 10-12 song album to put up, but I'm imagining that this place will be dead and I'll have stopped lurking by the time that happens.
So one last huzzah eh? Guitars are PodHD (treadplate on the left, Line6 Epic on the right) guitar is just a DI track with EQ & compression. Drums are Steven Slate 3.5ex. The 3rd guitar in the intro & outro are temporary, just feeling out some ideas for texture there. And I'm still working on the guitar tones, luckily I finally have my re-amping set up all put together, so its just a matter of tweaking the patch & hitting a few different buttons in Reaper and then record...fucking beautiful thing, technology is. The track is still, as yet, nameless :(
Edit: And my drummer hasn't touched the drums yet, so this one is 100% me (for better or, more likely, worse) Hopefully he'll get his new computer set up before too long and find some time for it. I think I'm getting better at the drums though....at least there aren't too many over-used loops throughout the track.
Thanks man. Keeping in mind they're programmed (pretty sure its still obvious from the sound, I haven't humanized them at all). But yeah...I don't have a particularly great feel for writing drums. If my drummer ever gets around to tweaking them I'll repost and show you what I mean... Every time I lay down the drums for a track to get the song written, I think it sounds pretty cool. Then he gets ahold of it and re-writes the drums and I realize mine sounded like dick cheese.
I have, but not with this material. Had a band in highschool and we played around town a good amount, then years later after I got out of the Corps I filled in on bass in my drummers other band to get them through a couple shows. Right now though I'm working in the Middle East, so this is a project between me & my drummer via the internet.

Member of white supremacist gang arrested; was wanted in Colorado prisons chief killing probe

DENVER – Authorities have arrested a member of a white supremacist gang linked to the killing Colorado's prisons chief, who was shot answering the door of his home last month.
El Paso County sheriff's spokesman Jeff Kramer says James Lohr was taken into custody early Friday. Lohr was wanted for questioning in the murder of Colorado Corrections Director Tom Clements. It's unclear if Lohr has been charged.
Authorities believe the Lohr was in contact with gang associate Evan Ebel days before the murders of Clements and pizza delivery man Nate Leon. Police say they believe Ebel killed Leon and Clements before he was killed in a shootout in Texas. His motive in the killings isn't clear.
According to the television station (http://tinyurl.com/d8bj8vt ), Lohr was arrested by Colorado Springs police after a short foot chase when police tried to stop a car.

I just just getting invested in some markets and track in the markets up and down ... but he doesn't believe very much and bank bailouts Hi there I wanna read you a quote Steve ... from an interview that the New Yorker did with Professor fallen back in twenty ten ... and I quote the extent we never ran is ... suppose the government steps aside and let these institutions fail ... how we've been taken to a UN scrambled everything and figured everything out ... my guess is maybe a week or two ... but the prom is over generated by the government stepping in ... those are going to be with us for the foreseeable future and quote ...

Zacharias Holladay (1761-1846)
Zacharias Holladay (1761-1846)
Zacharias HOLLADAY was born in Virginia in 1761, probably in Orange County.[1] He died on 7 Nov 1846 in Adair County, Kentucky,[2] and was buried on his farm in a plot near the Holladay Cemetery. According to the research of Dr. A. M. Holladay, his parents were Joseph and Winifred Holladay, and his only known sibling was his brother John.[3] [4]
Zacharias, the progenitor of the Adair County branch of the Holladay family, was a soldier and a Kentucky pioneer. During his military career he fought in three wars: the American Revolution, the Indian Wars of the Old Northwest, and the War of 1812. He was an early settler in the area south of Green River and by 1799 had established himself on a 200-acre tract owned by his brother-in-law, Robert Anderson. Zacharias farmed and raised his family on this property and lived there until his death.
Little is known about Zacharias' childhood, but the lands to the west were being explored as he was growing up, and he must have heard many tales about the frontier country from family and friends. His brother, John Holladay, six years older, was one of the very early settlers of Kentucky and was at Harrodsburg by March of 1777.[5]
Zacharias was almost fourteen years old when the American Revolution began in 1775. He must have been caught up in the spirit of independence, which was especially strong in Orange County, Virginia, home of the Madison family. Upon reaching the age of seventeen, in 1778, Zacharias was finally old enough to enlist in the army. He first served in Col. Francis Taylor's Virginia Regiment, and at the request of Capt. Burnley, he served part of the time as "drummer principal" for his company. Col. Taylor's regiment served as guards at Albemarle Barracks, near Charlottesville, where the British prisoners were taken after Gen. Burgoyne's surrender at Saratoga.[6]
Zacharias must have liked the army life because in April of 1781, on the same day he was discharged, he reenlisted and that fall was at Yorktown for the surrender of Cornwallis. He was later in a campaign in the South under Gen. Anthony Wayne, from whom he received his discharge after a tour of about 18 months.[7]
The next year, 1783, Zacharias went to Kentucky. At the time he arrived there, the settlers were in continual danger of attack by Indians, who used the Kentucky area as a hunting ground. As a result, all able-bodied men were required to serve as members of their local militia company. Zacharias' name is found in the militia records of Nelson County in 1789, and from those records we know that he lived with or near his brother, John, since they are both listed as serving in Captain Wilson's company. Later he obtained a pre-emption of 300 acres of land next to his brother's land on Pitmon Creek ("Sinking Creek") in what is now Green County. He subsequently sold his rights to this land to Jacob Meyer.
As a member of Kentucky's "Cornstalk Militia", Zacharias saw action in a number of expeditions against the Indians between 1786 and 1794. These actions culminated with Gen. Anthony Wayne's victory in the 1794 Battle of Fallen Timbers. After that battle, in which he served as a "spy" or scout, Indians were no longer a threat to the settlers in Kentucky.
Some time after returning from the 1794 campaign, Zacharias met and married Catherine (Kitty) Anderson. Kitty was born about 1765 in Louisa County, Virginia and died in about 1833 in Adair County, Kentucky. She was the daughter of Robert Anderson and Frances (Poindexter) Anderson.
Zacharias and Kitty were married in about 1796 but the actual date and place of their marriage are not known. Family tradition says that they were married in Virginia, but this author believes they met and were married in Kentucky, probably in Fayette or a nearby county. Kitty had family members in Kentucky from at least 1793, and all of Kitty and Zacharias' children were born in Kentucky.[8]
By about 1798 or 1799 Zacharias and Kitty settled on land on Sulfur Fork, a tributary of Russell Creek and Green River, where they were to spend the rest of their lives. Zacharias first appears in the Green County tax records in 1799. At that time he was living on a 200-acre farm that was part of a tract of 1400 acres granted to Robert Anderson in 1791. In 1801 the southern part of Green County was split off to become Adair County, and in 1802 the town of Columbia was established. In 1808 Zacharias purchased the land on which he farmed from Robert Anderson.[9]
Zacharias and Kitty had at least four children, named below. The four children who grew to adulthood all appear to have made good marriages, and all raised large families. Among them they presented Zacharias with 22 grandchildren, and nine additional grandchildren were born after his death.
As Zacharias and Kitty's children were growing up, he farmed and continued with his military activities. Though past 50, he answered Governor Isaac Shelby's call for volunteers and served in the War of 1812, being present at the battle of the Thames.
Based on census information, Kitty lived until after 1830, and this author recently became aware of a letter indicating that she died in 1833.
By 1840 Zacharias was living in the household of his son, William. He is listed in the 1840 special census of Revolutionary War veterans as 78 years old.[10] In October of 1844, at the age of 83, Zacharias was interviewed by the historian, Lyman C. Draper. Draper was on one of his early research trips through the South and wanted to record the recollection of this veteran of the early frontier wars in Kentucky. Zacharias was apparently quite a story teller, and Draper's notes of this interview occupy 30 pages of his notebook.[11] According to these notes Zacharias participated in many of the expeditions against the Indians that took place between 1786 and 1794 under such leaders as John Adair, George Rogers Clark, and Anthony Wayne.
By 1846 Zacharias' health was in decline, and he made his last will on 8 July of that year.[12] He died on 7 November 1846[13] and was laid to rest beside Kitty in a small plot near the family cemetery where other members of their family had been buried.
Children of Zacharias HOLLADAY and Catherine (Kitty) ANDERSON:
+2 i. Sarah (Sally) HOLLADAY (born abt 1797).
+3 ii. John HOLLADAY (born abt 1800).
+4 iii. William HOLLADAY (born abt 1802).
+5 iv. Joseph HOLLADAY (born abt 1805).
6 v. Mary (?) HOLLADAY Family tradition says that Zacharias and Kitty had a fifth child, possibly named Mary, who died young. Zacharias' listing in the 1810 U.S. census shows one female under ten, which appears to confirm this story.
Prepared by Jay A. Holladay, P.O. Box 815, La Canada, CA 91012 e-mail: email@example.com Last update 3 January2009.
[1] Zacharias' birth date may be estimated from two sources: the declaration that he made in support of his application for a Revolutionary War pension, made on 10 August 1832, states his age as 71; the 1840 special census of Revolutionary War veterans (census date 1 June 1840) lists his age as 78. From this we can conclude that he was born between 2 June and 10 August 1761. Other sources such the notes on his interview with Lyman C. Draper in October of 1844 giving his age as 83, and his age range in the 1830 U.S. Census, 60 to 69, are consistent with the above conclusion. See notes below for details of the above sources.

Section E contains an extensive history of William Holladay and his descendants. Page 44 of this section presents Dr. Holladay's conclusions on the lineage of Zacharias Holladay. Note that circumstantial evidence was used to reach the conclusion that Zacharias' parents were Joseph and Winifred Holladay. This would mean he had a brother named John, named in Winifred's will as "son and heir of Joseph". Zacharias did indeed have a brother John, as stated is his interview with L. C. Draper (note 5, below), further confirming Dr. Holladay's conclusions.

Footnote 30 on p. 136 contains a summary of the life of William Holladay, Zacharias' grandfather. The master chart on p. 58-59 shows Zachariah [sic] (M-282) and his brother John (M-280).

Citing various deficiencies in its application, the Federal Aviation Administration has rejected a commercial airline's bid to fly out of Carlsbad's McClellan-Palomar Airport.
The FAA's Western-Region division informed California Pacific Airlines' owner Ted Vallas in an Aug. 7 letter that the airline has failed to meet minimum standards in areas such as safety, maintenance, and inspections. Cal Pacific in its application also failed to answer some questions posed by regulators, and left out at least one required section.
The FAA gave California Pacific a Sept. 13 deadline to resubmit materials. If that date passes, the FAA will officially terminate the certification effort.
"We rejected CP Air's formal application for certification due to a number of deficiencies," FAA Spokesman Ian Gregor said. "We plan to meet with CP Air officials within the next few weeks to further discuss their application."
The rejection is the latest setback for California Pacific Airlines, which has been in the works since April 2010. That was when Vallas, of Rancho Santa Fe, then 91, filed an initial statement of intent with the FAA. He envisioned an airline that would offer nonstop service to San Jose, Oakland, Sacramento, Las Vegas, Phoenix, and eventually Cabo San Lucas.
Cal Pacific CEO John Selvaggio said the airline is in discussions with the FAA about correcting the mistakes and expressed confidence that the issues would be worked out. He said the airline spoke with FAA officials Monday and Tuesday and will continue to do so. He said the airline would be able to meet the FAA's deadline to resubmit materials.
"It's unfortunate that the letter reads the way it is because the tone is pretty harsh," he said. "We are coming to a better understanding of what they were looking for in areas where we're deficient. We certainly have no objection to making changes and a lot of these things are really more along the lines of misunderstanding of guidance. We will make all the changes. "
A voicemail left for Vallas was not immediately returned.
The airline failed four of nine categories in the FAA application, including continual analysis and safety system, minimum equipment list, weight and balance, and operational control. The letter also points out that Cal Pacific cited regulations facing air tour operators in Hawaii, which was not scheduled as a destination for the airline. Finally, it submitted previously rejected documents as part of its latest application.
Cal Pacific planned to run a fleet of 72-seat Embraer jets. Its first plane landed to fanfare at Palomar in July 2012, but sat idle on the tarmac as the FAA initially raised concerns with Cal Pacific's application, returning it to a preliminary phase. The plane, which the airline must have for FAA approval, was eventually subleased to Honeywell in Phoenix, so that investors could recoup the $200,000 they were paying to rent the plane. As of last week, Embraer agreed to freeze the lease so that the airline would not have to continue paying rent until it needs the plane, Selvaggio said.
Vallas, who founded charter service Air Resort Airlines in the 1980s, in March hired Selvaggio to be the new CEO. Selvaggio was CEO of Song Airlines (now part of Delta) in the mid-2000s, and in 2007 became CEO of Comair, stepping down in 2008. He came out of consulting in order to help the the Carlsbad airline weave through the FAA application process, saying he expected the regional airline to be in service by the end of 2013. Selvaggio said Tuesday that a ballpark could still be December or January.
The airline again suffered a setback in May because of sequestration, or across-the-board federal budget cuts that took away personnel who could have helped process the application. At the time, Selvaggio said investors raised $11 million for the airline. The FAA reinstated the application process in June, before informing the airline Aug. 7 of the rejection.
