Recently PRO v1.16
Requirements: 5.0+ ROOT
Overview: With Android 5.0 Lollipop's release, the recents view (multitask button) became overview, and instead of showing you only actually running apps, it also shows you apps that have ran in the past.
Over time, this screen ends up listing pretty much every app you have ever run, becomes completely useless, and wastes a perfectly good (soft-)button.
Recently aims to restore sanity, by limiting which apps are shown. In its most aggressive configuration, it will show you only apps that are actually running right now. Because Android can be fairly aggressive itself with killing off apps, apps you have used just a minute ago may disappear from the list in this setup, and configuring Recently to remove entries that have not actually run the past few days may be the better option.
Aside from listing only running apps or apps that have run in a certain timeframe, Recently also allows you to limit by number of entries shown. Note that actually running apps will always be shown, regardless of this setting - only entries from apps that aren't actually running are ever removed.
Purchasing the Pro version supports my developments and will allow you to start Recently automatically at boot.
This app is built specifically for Android 5.0 and 5.1. Future versions may work differently, the recents/overview screen may be fixed, etc. In a year this app may no longer be relevant.
Aren't task killers bad?
No tasks are ever killed by Recently. It only removes entries from the recents list that are not actually running at time of removal.
What resources does this use?
Virtually none. There are no wakelocks at all. Battery impact should be less than 1% worst case.
Nothing happens?
(1) Make sure you have enabled the switch in the top right of the settings screen
(2) Make sure you aren't using a custom kernel that disables logging
(3) Make sure you give it a minute or so after first enabling it
When I press the back and the multitasking button really quickly, my last used app that is now closed is still listed
The delay in this case is about a second after the app close animation finishes
I just pressed the back button on an app, and I'm in 'running apps only', but the app is still listed
Not all apps actually close when you press the back button. Most do, but some don't.
Nothing is happening at all, and I'm finding an 'unexpected EOF' error in logcat
Sometimes the app can't access logs. This is usually because multiple apps are trying to read from logcat at the same time. The app will keep trying periodically. Rebooting usually gets rid of this problem.
- Fix periodic root popup
- Workaround CM's # in statusbar
- Fix never quitting with CM's SU
- Multi-user support - works for all users, but with admin's config
- Fix settings screen margins on tablets

Deep Sleep Battery Saver Pro v4.6.906(paid)+ patched
Requirements: Android 2.1 and up,
Overview: Deepsleep battery saver constantly puts the device to deepsleep mode while screen off.
Deepsleep battery saver constantly puts the device to deepsleep mode while screen off
LifeHacker: "Plenty of apps save your battery life, but this one takes the idea to a whole new level"

☆Custom profile (PRO) - for advanced users. If you need more customization, select this profile and modify it
☆Custom profile settings
- Separate between weekday vs weekend settings
- Frequency: device is turned on DS mode at a selected frequency
- Duration: device is woke up after for a selected duration after a each frequency cycle
- Wileless & network: control radio setting during DS on
- Sync: Control sync strategy and sync account, auto-sync
- Apps: Select apps that will be stopped during DS on
- CPU: Process twist - root only
- Night period: During this period, device is always in DS mode
☆General settings
- Screen off delay: a short delay before DS start. This option is used to avoid quick screen toggles
- Whitelist: Apps are always ignored when DS on, such as online music player
- Ingored recent apps: ignore recent apps
- Use APN settings: twist 3G/4G/mobile data toggler
- Check background data: If selected, it will ignore DS mode if traffic is above a defined threshold

500 Firepaper PRO v2.65
Requirements: 4.0+
Overview: 500 Firepaper provides a live wallpaper and a daydream showing you the latest images from 500px throughout the day.
You never need to look at that boring old wallpaper again, or search for hours for a nice new one. This app will show you quality photographs from all over the world - different ones each day!
The feature (popular, editor's choice, fresh, etc) and categories displayed are of course configurable, as is the refresh interval and the brightness of the images.
Please note that high resolution imagery and animation takes quite a bit of memory, so obviously this app is aimed at high-end devices.
If you are a Muzei user, 500 Firepaper also presents itself as an art source to Muzei.
What does buying Pro get me?
In cooperation with 500px, purchasing Pro will extend the maximum cache time from 24 hours to 7 days, and will also give you the option to (re-)set any image from the History Browser as your background (for up to 7 days)
Why is there no save feature ?
Not allowed per 500px API terms.
Three finger tap to go to the next image doesn't seem to work, what now ?
On some devices (like the HTC One) you need to put down your fingers one-by-one.
Why can't I pause indefinitely or show an image for longer than a day ?
Per 500px API terms the app cannot keep an image around for longer than 24 hours - unless you purchase Pro.
Why does this use so much RAM ?
High-resolution imagery takes a lot of memory in uncompressed form, and multiple buffers are required. But fear not, should your device need the memory while the wallpaper/daydream is not visible, the memory occupied by the app will automagically be released and repurposed.
Disk usage just keeps growing. Why can't I configure any limit ?
The built-in cache limit is around 256 MB - I've never seen it actually reach that limit before cleaning itself up, though.
Can the cached images be put somewhere else, like on my sd card ?
No, they cannot.
Do you want a balloon ?
No, but thanks for asking.
This application is completely dependent on the availability of 500px and its APIs. 500px can remove the APIs or revoke this application's API keys at any time. This will cause the application to stop working.
Due to 500px's API usage conditions, the application cannot cache images for longer than 24 hours (unless you buy Pro). As such, if you are not connected to Wi-Fi while either charging or having a near-full battery for more than a day, the application will run out of images to display.
This application uses the 500px API and is not endorsed or certified by 500px or 500px Inc. All 500px Trademarks displayed on this application are property of 500px Inc.
No personal or private information about you or your device is collected or transmitted by this app.
- Fix low resolution display (use 'clear cache' feature or wait a few days for it to clear up)
- Fix for Muzei art source which would stop working after a while
- Fix black screen on some devices during wallpaper startup
- Significantly reduce the number of requests to 500px API servers (more speed, less bandwidth)
- Fix issue with pinned images not sticking
- Further cache tuning

Requirements: 2.2 and up
Overview: Are you having trouble wading through the countless apps in the Store aimed at toddlers and preschoolers? If your kids are animal lovers and you're looking for something both fun and educational, with tons of content and lots of replay value, then with 12 games in one app, Playground 1 is for you.
The games in Playground 1 are designed to engage children as young as two years old but increase in complexity and difficulty so that children up to the age of six will still find them a challenge. Perfect for siblings to play together or for kids to enjoy with their parents.
The 12 games included in Playground 1 – Best of Edition are:
• ERASE [ ART ]: Little ones who may not yet have the fine motor skills to draw or color can rub away the silver surface of each picture to discover what's underneath!
• DRAW [ ART ]: Free-draw on the blank canvas or choose one of 19 different animal scenes to color-in. Toddlers can use the paint bucket to tap and fill-in different colors, while older kids can choose from 3 different brush sizes.
• PIANO [ MUSIC ]: Fancy some music? Free play on a keyboard with the notes supplied by cats, frogs, cows or fish!
• REMEMBER [ MUSIC ]: Just like the classic 'Simon Says' game, animals sing notes and your child has to repeat them in the same order.
• FIND IT [ LOGIC & MEMORY ]: See if you can spot all the differences in each of the 22 animal scenes.
• PAIRS [ LOGIC & MEMORY ]: This version of the classic matching game starts easy but includes 100 cards!
• PUZZLE [ PUZZLES ]: 12 puzzles with 4 pieces each for the littlest ones and 50 additional puzzles with 8 pieces each for older kids.
• ROLL [ PUZZLES ]: A 'tap and turn' game for children who would find the slider puzzles too much of a challenge.
• SLIDER PUZZLE [ PUZZLES ]: With patience and persistence yo CAN get the pieces in the right spot!
• COLLECT [ SPATIAL AWARENESS ]: Help Mama fish through the mazes to collect her 5 little babies.
• CATCH [ SPATIAL AWARENESS ]: Like 'whack-a-mole' you have to tap the animals as they pop up - but make sure you get the right ones!
• COLORS [ SPATIAL AWARENESS ]: A fun, fishy, bubble flinging game.
While playing all these games in addition to having fun your children are developing and reinforcing all kinds of skills, inluding:

Despite scoring the game's first goal, Adam Brace's first as an AHL player, the Checkers surrendered the next two in a 2-1 loss to the Chicago Wolves at Time Warner Cable Arena on Thursday. John Muse made 24 saves yet suffered his first loss of the season as the team fell to 0-3-0 in its own building to the start the campaign.
The Checkers, playing their first home game since Oct. 20 and following a 3-2-1 road trip that included six games in nine days, had a number of chances to tie the game late in the third period, finding some offensive life that they had lacked for much of the outing. With a longer period of time, they could very well have found the equalizer, but simply didn't give themselves enough of a chance after a sluggish start.
"Just playing 20 minutes isn't going to work," said coach Jeff Daniels, whose team out-shot Chicago 16-5 in the third period, equaling its shot total from the previous two periods combined. "We just weren't very good."
The Checkers entered the game as one of three AHL teams yet to win at home, joining Utica and Portland, but its two games played in its own building also ranked as the fewest in the league. Though plenty has changed since last season, the team also lost its final two playoff games last spring, bringing the overall streak to five games.
"It's only been three games and we'll reassess a few games from now," said Daniels, who will play 15 of his next 18 at home. "No matter if we're at home or on the road, we should play the same way with the same tempo, and we didn't do that tonight."
Charlotte's best offensive sequence of the entire game began on a power play with 5:49 remaining when Chicago's Brent Regner picked up an interference penalty. The man advantage, which had a streak of scoring at least one goal in six consecutive games snapped in the Checkers' last game, a 5-3 loss in San Antonio on Saturday, produced some great looks but couldn't apply the finishing touches.
Whether it was missed nets or the mis-hit of one-timers with goalie Jake Allen leaving some net exposed, the final execution was simply not there.
"We started putting a lot more pucks at the net and guys started going there, getting to the paint and working," said Brett Sutter. "Once we started doing that we got some chances. They weren't pretty tic-tac-toes like we were trying early in the game, but the third was the period to build off for sure."
A Charlotte goal to tie the game would have broken a long scoreless sequence, with all three of the game's goals scored in the second period. Brace, a rookie forward who the Checkers signed to an AHL contract over the summer, got things going when he stuffed home the rebound or Rasmus Rissanen's attempted centering feed just over four minutes in. Rissanen had started the play by shaking off a slash in his own zone that set up a delayed call, one that would never have to be made when Brace extended his scoring streak to three games (1g, 2a), giving him three points in five career AHL games.
Brace, a 25-year-old who scored 21 points in 17 total games for the ECHL's Florida Everblades upon turning pro at the conclusion of his college season at Robert Morris University, had sat out most of the team's previous games as a healthy extra before picking up some fourth-line duty and power-play time over the last week.
"We've slowly been increasing his ice time, but he's still got a lot to learn about the league," said Daniels of Brace. "Hopefully over time he'll be another guy that can produce some points for us."
The lead from Brace's goal, which marked the ninth time the Checkers have struck first in 11 games this season, was short lived. Just over a minute later, the Wolves took the lead when Corey Locke, a former AHL MPV, found David Shields open to Muse's left for a finish, becoming the first Wolves player to score on Muse in 85:40 of game action dating back to the Checkers' 5-0 shutout win in the first meeting between the two clubs on Oct. 27.
Later in the period, Shields made the key play by intercepting Checkers scoring leader Victor Rask's backhand pass up the middle of the ice in the defensive zone and sending a pass over to Nathan Longpre for the tap-in. The play came just 33 seconds after Charlotte had gotten back to even strength after killing consecutive penalties to Justin Shugg and Sutter that included 38 seconds of a two-man advantage.
"Sometimes it's a boost when you kill those off, especially a five-on-three, but obviously the kept the momentum and were able to score that winner," said Daniels.
As advertised by Daniels earlier in the day, Lindholm did see plenty of ice in his AHL debut, but was mostly quiet except for a few nifty plays to create scoring chances around the net during Charlotte's final power play.
"I thought he was fine, but he still has another level to get to," said Daniels. "You forget he's still an 18-year-old kid and this is a tough league, and I expect him to get better every day."
"It was a little bit of an adjustment for us, going from playing not many minutes to a bigger role," said Sutter, who was also playing his first Checkers game of the season after a reassignment from Carolina this week.
If their stronger finish to this game is any indication, it's possible that those adjustments have already been made, or can continue to be made ahead of Saturday's rematch with the Wolves.
"We'll watch some video and correct some things, get a little greasier, a little hungrier around the net and find a way to score some goals," said Sutter.
NotesThis season marks the first time the Checkers have ever started a season with three regulation losses at home. The team went 0-2-1 in 2010-11, its inaugural season … The Checkers were playing without forward Chris Terry, recalled to Carolina on Wednesday in exchange for Lindholm, for just the eighth time in the last four seasons … Each team went 0-for-4 on the power play, with Charlotte not allowing a power-play goal for the first time in its last four games … Center Brody Sutter missed the game due to injury and defenseman Beau Schmitz was a healthy scratch for Charlotte ... Fans voted Muse as the Roll up Your Sleeves Hardest Worker of the Game.

The NSA Turns Everyone Into A 'Threat To National Security' By Instantly Classifying All Data It Scoops Up
from the and-the-people-you-talk-to?-also-threats dept
Now that it's common knowledge the NSA is collecting metadata on pretty much any American with a working phone and/or internet connection, some Americans are trying to find out what's been collected. Multiple FOIA requests have been sent to the NSA, but each one is receiving the same form letter -- one that states that any information, including affirmation or denial, would result in "exceptionally grave damage" to national security.
The DailyKOS has a writeup on another citizen's attempt to get some info on their info, only to be stonewalled by the NSA's rejection form letter. David Gershon Harris, the author of the DailyKOS piece, says that "dozens of others" have received similar letters.
It's not as if there aren't protections in place that allow redactions of certain information. The problem with the letter this person (IT specialist Clayton Seymour) received is that it points to a specific executive order.
[T]he central problem is this: Seymour's letter from the NSA points to Executive Order 13526, signed by President Obama in 2009, as justification for the NSA's FOIA exemption.By securing the metadata on millions of Americans through covert action, the NSA has given itself an "out." It will never have to reveal this information via a response to a FOIA request because all data collected is, by this definition, instantly classified. The use (or abuse) of this executive order implies something very unseemly about the NSA's thought processes.
This order signed by Obama established a uniform system for classifying national security information, and stipulates that "information shall not be considered for classification unless its unauthorized disclosure could reasonably be expected to cause identifiable or describable damage to the national security."
This qualification appears in section 1.4 of the executive order, after which follow many categories of information which may be marked as classified. The category the NSA points to in justifying the classification of all its data is this:
"(c) intelligence activities (including covert action), intelligence sources or methods, or cryptology"
The NSA, it seems, has classified every single piece of data on American citizens that it has seized and saved, even benign data culled from people like Seymour, who are no threat to U.S. national security.What does this mean? In the eyes of the NSA, every person in the US who has had data collected covertly (in order to skirt Fourth Amendment protections), is a "threat to national security." The gathered data, even if incidentally gathered in the pursuit of terrorists, is instantly classified and stashed away securely. FOIA requests won't pry it loose.
There's no way the NSA truly believes every American is a threat, but that hasn't stopped it from gathering up everything it can and locking it up. The data that is supposed to be flushed from the system or otherwise protected from abuse by its holders? You can't have access to that either. Even the data it doesn't need has been given the same protection as that which could cause "identifiable or describable damage to national security."
This is the NSA's America. Everyone's a security threat. It just a matter of connecting the dots.

text: Will it? Won't it? A recent listing suggested that Team Ico's long-delayed PS3 adventure about a boy and his griffin would appear at this year's E3... a rumour that Sony was quick to debunk. Yet the game's director Fumito Ueda released a statement saying earlier this year that The Last Guardian lived. E3 would be the perfect time to reveal its resurrection, probably as a PlayStation 4 title.

7 Things to Learn from a "Lifer" Nurse
Prisca Smith | Scrubs Magazine
Experienced nurses are an example of how to avoid burn out as they have found ways to cope with and love the profession for the long haul. And yes, I believe that time makes a good nurse even better! There of course is always an exception to the rule, but for the most part I am in awe of the nurses I am working with and am enjoying watching them in action. As always, I am realizing I have a lot to learn—much of which will take a lot of time. One day I hope to be a "lifer" who is an example of the excellence our profession has to offer.

When jokes about BP and the Gulf oil spill find there way into race reports in the cycling press, it doesn't take much to imagine that it must have been an epic day on the bike. Unfortunately, the spectacle in today's Tour de France came as dozens of riders lost grip and wiped-out on the technical descent of the Stockeu, and less so from the brilliant and enthusiastic breakaway by Quick Step's Sylvain Chavanel that carried him to not just the stage win, but also first place in the race's overall classification - and the fabled Yellow Jersey awarded each day to the Tour's leader!
I'm terribly conflicted by the race protest led by prologue winner Fabian Cancellara. His two Saxo Bank teammates, the Brothers Schleck, were the prime beneficiaries of Spartacus' flirtation with workers' rights - both had come a cropper after the Stockeu and were all but out of the GC race. Thanks to their teammate's lobbying, however, both were able to rejoin the main peloton and in doing so saved their hopes for overall victory.
Yet it wasn't just Fab's teammates who benefited from the temporary truce - Lance Armstrong and Alberto Contador were both caught-out by crashes and missed the split. But poor Thor Hushvod and his Cervelo teammates, who survived the descent after working their asses off for the entire stage, were denied the opportunity to contest the sprint for second and fight for all-important Green Jersey points! Why should Thor be penalized and denied the chance to do his job just because two skinny climbers from Luxembourg can't go downhill? And yesterday's stage winner Alessandro Petacchi (who I think is a fantastic rider, even though he served an abbreviated doping ban for having used too much of his prescribed asthma medicine one day) was shown no respect by Cancellara or his GC cronies after falling early on the same descent - but didn't he deserve the peloton's consideration as leader of the points competition?
I said earlier tonight on Twitter that I thought race organizers needed to use more common sense if they wanted positive spectacle during a race like the Tour - and not to see stages finish "under yellow" (to use an F1 phrase), while GC hopefuls like Christian Vande Velde were forced out of the race after crashing in treacherous conditions.
I did not, however, say that today's route was too dangerous for the Tour or that tomorrow's cobbles have no place in a three-week stage race.
Rather, I think that the routes the organizers choose should not be so possibly extreme (in the case of inclement weather, for example) that riders lose the ability to appropriately manage risk. A course that's absolutely fine for a one-day Classic like Liege-Bastogne-Liege might be unsuited for inclusion in the Tour, if there is a radical increase in the likelihood of a rider's being injured and having to abandon the race because of a crash that's likely to occur regardless of his intent, because of factors outside his control - like if it rains a lot, for example.
Sure, sending the riders over the cobbles of Paris-Roubaix tomorrow could create a true spectacle - but what happens if Contador crashes while riding in the front, seemingly out of danger, and shatters his knee and has to abandon the race? Who benefits from that outcome? And why wouldn't the organizers expect that to happen, given that it was the fate that befell Johan Museeuw during the 1998 Hell of the North?
Risk Management - that's the operative idea. But it becomes very difficult to put into practice when the Tour de France is turned upside down and skinny Basque climbers are forced to ride the cobbles of Paris-Roubaix just to get to the mountains in which they normally shine.
Classics riders have the entire Spring season to ply their trade. The Grand Tour contenders leave them alone to get on with it - so why should those same riders be forced into conditions that aren't traditionally part of a three-week tour? I'm all for changing things up and keeping the racing exciting, but don't make it a situation where the rider loses the ability to manage his appetite for risk without forfeiting the chance to contend for the overall.
UPDATE: As the AP notes:
"...Perhaps just a short stretch or two of cobbles would have been sufficient. Instead, on Tuesday's stage 3, the 193 riders will bump, rattle and roll over seven separate sections, 8 miles in all of cobbles that at times will feel more like riding on the rocky bed of dry river than on a road...But it would be best if the cobbles don't skew the Tour outcome too much and the top contenders make it through safely. It would not be convincing if Armstrong or others win simply because the paving stones hobbled their rivals."
If the crashes occurred primarily as a result of oil on the road and not the nature of the descent, as I originally thought to be the case, then I can support the notion of waiting to regroup, but wonder why Thor and the other sprinters weren't allowed to contest the finish? It's not like the organizers themselves poured oil on the road...(that would be some effed-up sh*t if they did). Still though, it's important that organizers balance the need to create spectacle with the health and safety of the riders, and that they not ask them to take risks that could have far-reaching negative economic, psychological and physical consequences (beyond the norm) were something to go wrong - as it seemed to today. And if the organizers are being dicks, then more power to the riders for pushing back and refusing to be the greyhound dogs that are driven into the ground for the amusement of the masses. Hell, you think doping happens in a vacuum? No one ever wants to speak of the racer organizers' culpability for doping - yet they're the assassins who plan the routes and schedule the transfers and demand that the riders repeatedly perform super-human feats of strength and endurance - and never will they sacrifice the spectacle for the safety of the athletes.
I doubt that a riders' union would ever work in cycling, which is too global a sport and too flush with raw talent from the socioeconomic badlands to nurture the solidarity necessary for the implementation and growth of a union, so if justified, today's meek protest by the riders was almost as enjoyable a sight as a field-sprint would have been.
UPDATE2: I thought the furor over motodoping was funny. Now it's a f^cking royal pain-in-the-ass. I CANNOT believe that the UCI will take such an incredibly draconian stance towards a non-existent problem (motodoping, which is more a gag than a real threat - sorry for ripping on you before, Canc'.) while at the same time they'll accept hush money to allow Armstrong to continue competing even though he'd failed several doping controls. Check it (courtesy of CyclingNews.com):
"Garmin-Transitions team manager Jonathan Vaughters agreed. "The cobblestones make the race interesting, they add an element to it," he told Cyclingnews. "They're a hurdle you have to overcome in the race, just like the rain or the crosswinds or the mountains."
But recent suspicion concerning hidden motors in bicycles made the International Cycling Union (UCI) add another difficulty in the already torturous stage. In the race finale, teams would normally have posted their assistants with spare bikes at the roadside to provide for quick bike changes if their leaders suffer a mechanical. This is what is usually done in Paris-Roubaix, but to exclude any possibility of electrical treachery, complete bike changes are now possible only from team cars.
"I don't like that decision," Vaughters said. "If someone breaks a bike, and the cars are two kilometres behind... Normally, we would have a person with a bike at every cobblestone sector, just waiting there. But now, the bike has to come off the roof of a team car."
In order to maintain everybody's chances, the race organiser has decided to determine specific zones of technical assistance after the last four cobbled sections, where teams will be allowed to provide spare wheels and other mechanical help.
Still, Vaughters thought that other alternatives existed. "You put a box on the side of the cobbles [for frame scanning - ed.], put a tag on them and then they're ready. I know that logistically, that's very difficult to do. But it would be better than just banning bike changes.
"It's just going to be a crazy day anyway," he added. "For sure, there'll be a couple of GC contenders that are going to be eliminated from the race. And it is also very likely that riders will be eliminated because of a bike difficulty and being unable to change. And I don't think that is in the interest of fair play, either."

Noooo, not another Twitter client! Yes, another Twitter client. The difference here is that you're dealing with a multi-functional, fully 100% text, Perl command line client.
tytter is a twitter client for the command line
When you start TTYtter without a keyfile, which will be the case the first time you run it, it will automatically
start an assistant to help you create the keyfile. You only need to create the keyfile once for each account. It will never expire.TTYtter will find where your cURL is located, and if successful, you should see something like this:
Once installed simply type
ttytter -dostream
into your command line and it will prompt you for the Oauth key, click the given URLand type in the key which appears in your browser.
Now you should see your twitter timeline in the shell.
Note: If you use this screen name on other machines you use TTYtter on, simply copy the keyfile there
To enable ANSI colours and some other cool stuff here is a template .ttytterrc which should suffice for most users
.ttytterrc create this file in your home dir and restart ttytter to see the differences.For a more indepth look at ttytter & its commands see teh ttytter homepage

In Florence, I had an apartment with 3 other American gals right in the heart of the historic city center. The view from my bedroom window looked out at the Palazzo Vecchio, and directly down onto the Ponte Vecchio. It was a pretty great scene.
Before happily waving goodbye to my parents at the airport, my mom gave me a really great present: my first cookbook. I was already a vegetarian, and she very thoughtfully got me a book called "Italian Vegetarian Cooking." Best of all, the book had measurements for each recipe in both metric and American measurements, so I knew to ask for a 1/2 kilo of tomatoes at the market. I used this cookbook as pretty much my sole reference in the kitchen during my many months in Italy. Mostly, I made simple pasta recipes, and bit-by-bit I started to develop a few kitchen skills.
In Florence, back then, there weren't supermarkets with produce. Instead, a hungry shopper either went to a small neighborhood vendor, or to the large central market - which was very near my school. I fell in love with the process of going to the market to buy my fruits and veggies. It was a fun way to practice speaking Italian, learn new words, and (over time) I learned which vendors would be patient with me as I spoke in Italian to ask for the right veggies. As you may know, being in a foreign land can be quite lonely. The comfort of a small conversation and a shared smile at the produce stand meant a lot to me. Over time, my Italian language skills became quite good, but I've never lost my affection for the role that these small interactions have in keeping life bearable and meaningful.
These days, I have so many cookbooks that it's a bit crazy, and from time to time I clear out the ones I never use. And yet, I've hung on to this book - mostly for its sentimental place in my heart. I just recently remembered it, and decided to break it out and make something for dinner. I decided to make the Minestrone Genoese - a lovely minestrone soup laced with a good dollop of pesto. It was great! I know it's not really pesto season, but back in the summer I made a big batch of pesto and froze it in ice cube trays... so all I had to do was just defrost a couple "pesto ice cubes." I hadn't ever thought of putting pesto into my minestrone soup before, but that was a very good idea!
The soup was very hearty and delicious, and it felt very sweet to be cooking from this book and remembering such a special and formative time in my life. Thanks again, Mom!

Richie McCaw has spoken out on the incident from the World Cup final © Getty Images
All Blacks skipper Richie McCaw has broken his silence on the alleged eye-gouge that he was on the receiving end of during the World Cup final.
New Zealand television, a few days after the final, showed slow-motion replays of the incident which appeared to show French centre Aurelien Rougerie make contact with McCaw's eye. The International Rugby Board did not take action over the incident as it came to light after the 36-hour period allowed for a citing to take place. The IRB have since announced they will evaluate extending this timeframe.
And McCaw has admitted the incident was "filthy" and has expressed his surprise that the IRB failed to act. "The French are worse when they are scared ... They were as bad as they have been and were going for the eyes," he said. "My eye was a bit sore for a while and I was struggling to see for a bit. I was surprised they didn't cite him."
McCaw was speaking at a fundraiser in Christchurch and conceded that he was half-blinded for the last few minutes of their World Cup final. And in the aftermath of their triumph, the 30-year-old admitted that they broke "every single one" of the rules surrounding the World Cup. The rules stipulates that the William Webb Ellis cup is never supposed to be alone, no-one is allowed to drink from it nor consume near it.

Brit Creators Eulogize MARVEL UK-Originated Content
This past May, reports surfaced that an edict from Disney stated that all Marvel superhero content needed to originate from the United States, effectively ending the era of Marvel comics produced specifically for the British market.
Marvel UK started as a reprint-only imprint in 1972, then grew to produce its own material, with Alan Moore, Grant Morrison, Alan Davis, David Gibbons and more major names all receiving crucial early exposure through the publisher. Neil Tennant — who went on to be one-half of pop duo Pet Shop Boys — actually served as Marvel UK editor for two years during the '70s, in a Pop-Up Video-worthy piece of trivia.
Italy-based company Panini acquired the Marvel UK license in 1995, and as of late published three ongoing titles with UK-originated content: Spectacular Spider-Man, Marvel Heroes and Spider-Man and Friends.
Writer Simon Furman and artist Simon Williams recently contributed a Hulk vs. Death's Head story in Marvel Heroes, and talked to Newsarama about the impact of Disney's decision, the legacy of Marvel UK and what the move means to British comics as a whole.
Newsarama: Questions go to both Simons: How surprised were you to to hear the report of no more UK-originated Marvel content from Panini? Was there any indication (or perhaps speculation following Disney purchasing Marvel in 2009), or was iout of the blue?
Simon Furman: It was very much a bolt from the blue. I'd heard no rumbles to this effect at all when I took on the Hulk vs Death's Head for Panini. In fact, I was hoping that the strip would lead to more work for Panini UK, so the news was a blow on a professional level and on a wider personal level. Very much — end of an era.
Simon Williams: To be honest, as soon as I heard that Disney had bought Marvel I thought to myself it would only be a matter of time. While I can kind of see it from Disney's point of view business-wise, it still came as a surprise and certainly a bitter disappointment to me when I heard the news that Panini would no longer be able to originate work featuring Marvel characters. I had just finished work on the Incredible Hulk/Death's Head strip in Marvel Heroes when I found out, so knowing what was going to happen after that issue made that a very bittersweet deal for me, and certainly for the other creators involved on those books.
Nrama: A lot of American fans might not know the role Marvel UK has played in Britain. Given the reports of Panini losing the rights to produce original Marvel content, from your perspective, how big of a loss is that? Seems to be a blow to British comics in general.
Furman: It's a huge blow to British comics. In their heyday, Marvel UK (before it became Panini UK) was turning out a vast amount of originated material — from licensed titles like Transformers, Zoids, Thundercats, Doctor Who and Real Ghostbusters to UK originals like Dragon's Claws, Death's Head, Motormouth, Sleeze Brothers, Knights of Pendragon, Warheads, Dark Angel and many, many more. Along with 2000AD, Marvel UK was the biggest single producer of original comics content in the UK during the 80s and early 90s. The fact that Panini continued the tradition of UK-originated strips, albeit on a smaller scale, was, in my view, worth preserving/encouraging.
Williams: It certainly is a big blow to British comics. Over the years, Marvel UK has played a very important role in not only the UK comics industry, but I think comics in general. Look at the wellspring of home-grown talent that started out working, or honing their talents with Marvel UK who have gone onto work for Marvel US (creators such as Alan Davis, Steve Dillon, Bryan Hitch, Simon Furman, Andy Wildman and Richard Starkings to name a few). Panini are one of the few companies here in the UK which produce comics featuring originated material, and Disney's new ruling now means that the many freelancers who worked on those books are now without work.
Nrama: What are some of your favorite Marvel UK-produced stories from the past — either as a reader or among ones you've worked on?
Furman: On a personal level, I'm particularly proud of Death's Head, because he's one of the few UK-originated characters to make the crossover to Marvel US (and still be around 25 or so years later). But there's so much amazing stuff — Captain Britain, Night Raven, Abslom Daak and all those others mentioned above. But probably, for me, head and shoulders above everything is Alan Moore and Alan Davis's defining run on Captain Britain. Just so influential!
Williams: Marvel UK have produced a lot of material over the years — classics such as Steve Parkhouse and David Lloyd's Night Raven in the 1979 Hulk Comic; Alan Moore and Alan Davis' classic run on Captain Britain; the originated Doctor Who material featuring the work of Dave Gibbons, Steve Dillon and John Ridgway to name a few — plus the 90's wave of Marvel UK comics as well which proved very popular at the time — titles such as Death's Head II, Motormouth & Killpower, and the Knights of Pendragon — featuring the work of the likes of Liam Sharp, Dan Abnett, Gary Frank and Gary Erskine - all of whom who have again, gone on and worked for Marvel US. My personal favourites however would be the classic Death's Head, Dragon's Claws and Transformers UK work that Simon Furman, Geoff Senior and co produced in the late 80's — this work was what made the biggest impression on me out the the UK stuff, and it was a thrill to be part of the (albeit short but sweet) return of Death's Head a few months ago.
Nrama: Marvel Heroes, where the Death's Head story appeared, is aimed at an all-ages audience, with shorter, self-contained stories. How unique is the Panini/Marvel UK content from the stories being currently produced by Marvel in the US?
Furman: I think all UK-produced stories are unique in that they bring a very unique UK-centric mindset to these familiar characters/situations. Instinctively, the UK creators just seem to understand their audience. What works in the US doesn't necessarily translate to a UK audience, and that's ultimately why I think it's a great loss not to have UK creators front and centre.
Williams: I think the point is that Panini have a great understanding of their target audience — and produced comics that was suitable and popular to their readership. This is something that I hope Disney will be able to grasp on and continue with. The stories featured in both Marvel Heroes and it's companion title Spectacular Spider-man Adventures (which won an Eagle Award in 2008 for favourite British Colour Comicbook) were separate from the ongoing US Marvel continuity — which led to a lot of great fun, self-contained stories. Plus the talent on both books is a veritable who's-who of the UK comics industry — including Ferg Handley, Mike Collins, Andie Tong, Staz Johnson, Jon Haward, John Royle, Gary Erskine, and Kev Hopgood. I'm very proud to have worked on these titles as well — and I shall certainly miss working on them.Got a comment? There's lots of conversation on Newsarama's FACEBOOK and TWITTER!

Cheapest Wedding Couple Say Show Turned Big Day Into A Joke
Australia's Cheapest Weddings may only be two episodes in but the reality TV show is already in hot water.
Emma and Steven Dilliway, the Maryborough couple who featured on this week's programme, have launched a scathing attack on the show's producers and editors, calling them out for turning their big day "into a joke".
"I don't want to watch it, but I will," Emma told Fraser Coast Chronicle. "You have got to see for yourself."
The newlyweds have been inundated with cruel and harsh comments ever since the trailer for their episode began airing on Channel 7 last week; the 18-second clip features footage of Emma singing Celine Dion's The Power of Love to her groom during their ceremony, and has attracted tens of thousands of mocking responses.
But Emma and Steven insist that Channel 7 have taken "a tiny bit of the day that just makes [our] wedding look really, really bad" and that the scene has been cut together with other out-of-context pieces.
"Her singing was actually really good, the background music has been edited out," Steven explained in a Facebook post. "It is a couple of scenes put together to give the appearance that myself and her father are in shock when actually we weren't.
"The amount of nasty comments that have been said about my wife is appalling! What Emma did took so much courage and everyone that was at our wedding loved it including myself."
Despite her husband coming to her defence, Emma has been "in tears" since the trailer first aired.
"If they changed that much of a little section of our wedding, I can only imagine how much they have changed for the whole day," she said.
"I have pretty much been in tears the last few days and I haven't wanted to go outside.
"They turned our special day into a joke."

The South Summit of Mount Jefferson, at 11,941 feet (3640 meters), is the highest peak in Nye County, Nevada. The view from atop the mountain is beautiful, you can peak over the tops of all the surrounding mountains like they were low rocky fences.
The top of the mountain is a vast plateau where we had hoped to spend a couple of days camping and roaming around. Unfortunately, thunderstorms on several sides of the mountain compelled us to climb down before we'd had the chance to explore the whole plateau; we'll just have to come back again!

Cruise Holidays of Austin
(512) 419-7327
Fundraising at Sea, Part 2
When you look around your community, you have to agree that it is very rewarding to see the number of charitable and non-profit organizations doing great things to help make our world a better place. But fulfilling the mission of these great causes comes with a price and thereby results in the consistent need for fundraising initiatives. From bake sales to raffles to membership drives, today's challenge is competing for what may be the same dollars.
To offer organizations a unique and fun way to raise funds, Cruise Holidays offers a fundraising opportunity that provides an organization's donors a memorable vacation getaway while helping raise money for the organization. Whether it's a 3, 4 or 7-night cruise (or longer), they'll go to new places, see sights they've never imagined, and be served in a manner befitting royalty. And in the end, they'll associate the entire experience with you and your organization.
Because a cruise experience is nearly all-inclusive, you don't have to worry about assisting with airline and hotel reservations, arranging meals, planning activities, or seeking out entertainment options — all of it is included and packaged into one seamless experience. And apart from the pure convenience of enjoying an unforgettable cruise experience, Cruise Holidays can help you with the proper planning to raise the money your organization needs.
But how does the organization make money?While planning a fundraising cruise is similar to handling other types of group cruises, there are some unique aspects to this market. First, Cruise Holidays will work with you to outline your fundraising objectives so we can be clear on the financial benefits. Then, we pick the best cruise to suit your organization.
Once we decide on the ship and itinerary, Cruise Holidays can then develop a financial model whereby a donation is made for each stateroom sold. You might be surprised how few staterooms are needed before the fundraising benefit kicks in, and then your organization earns a donation for every stateroom sold. The more people that come along and share in the cruise experience, the more money the organization can raise! In the end, fundraising cruises offer a fantastic vacation, while helping the organization earn valuable dollars for its cause.
Most importantly, the key to any successful fundraising cruise is letting enough people know about the vacation opportunity and the benefit to the organization. If your organization has a financial or fundraising board, Cruise Holidays can give a presentation outlining the cruise particulars, promotional efforts and potential profits. If warranted, Cruise Holidays could sponsor a cruise night for your group, which is a fun way to announce the cruise and all of its details. In addition, sending postcards, letters and e-mails are all very effective ways to communicate with potential cruisers in your group. Cruise Holidays also has marketing materials which can be personalized and used to promote the fundraising cruise.
Fundraising at sea is a terrific way for your group to raise money, have fun and develop a sense of camaraderie among your membership. Using Cruise Holidays will ensure you are dealing with a company that truly believes in giving back to the community and has the experience to make your fundraising efforts a success.

With the MLB All-Star Game rapidly approaching, I wanted to talk about baseball. Not about the game, but more about what is happening in the stands…with the concessions. An all-star stadium in my book, Globe Life Park in Arlington (home of the Texas Rangers), has been serving up some ridiculous concession creations. Here are the top seven foods they offer to help make you fat enough so you can't leave the stadium.
7. The Kaboom Kabob (2-ft-long skewer of chicken, served with seasonal veggies and comes with a carrying case)
6.The Choomongous ( 2-ft teriyaki beef sandwich topped with spicy slaw and Sriracha on a sweet bun)

5. Poutine Nachos (A play on the Canadian dish but with potato chips instead of french fries)
The @Rangers have added poutine nachos to their ballpark menu.
Poutine. Nachos.

Quick links: Download the latest version :: Watch a short demo of svcrash.py
Since this is a little different from the usual, I'll provide a bit of background first.
If you had been following the Asterisk or VoIP provider blogs and forums, you might have noticed people complaining about bandwidth saturation due to SIP scans. Some people had been using Amazon EC2 based servers to look for SIP servers such as Asterisk, which have weak passwords. As a result of these scans, organizations were getting a considerable amount of bandwidth used - leading to denial of service (DoS). Why did this happen?
- The attackers were using huge lists of extensions / passwords in their scans, (apparently) sometimes using the --force option in svwar.py
- Even if blacklisted, old versions of svwar.py and svcrack.py keep sending messages because they are stateless
- Originally, Amazon's abuse team did not respond to these attacks in a timely fashion
- The victim providers had less bandwidth than Amazon's cloud
So what's new?
1 - Updated SIPVicious to care more...
A few weeks ago I released a new version of SIPVicious (v0.2.5) which has a timeout for svwar.py and svcrack.py. If either of these tools receives no response then it stops scanning. The reason why they receive no response could be that an intrusion prevention system blocked the scanning IP, thus making it useless to keep on scanning anyway.
I urge everyone to update to the latest version (v0.2.6).
2. Create a small basic tool that breaks the attack:
A more aggressive approach is to make use of svcrash.py. What this tool does is abuse an unhandled exception when decoding the information from the "To" tag. This causes both svwar and svcrack to crash, thus stopping an attack. This tool is included in v0.2.6, which also includes a fix for this bug.
How to run svcrash.py
Mode 1: python svcrash.py -d attackerip -p attackerport
This would send one message which causes the attack to stop. You would need to find out the IP address and the attacker port from your PBX log files or by taking a look at Wireshark or tcpdump during the attack.
Mode 2: sudo python svcrash.py --auto
This would make use of scapy (i.e. you need to have scapy v2 installed) to monitor the traffic and respond automatically every 2 seconds. This automates the whole thing so that one can leave it running to block the next attack.
Mode 3: sudo python svcrash.py --astlog=/var/log/asterisk/full
Makes use of the Asterisk log file as a source of information. This option is still experimental as it does quite a bit of guessing. Needs more testing. For production use, the --auto mode is probably safer.
If you have any questions about svcrash, check out the FAQ, and do not forget the SIPVicious FAQ too. Feel free to contact me [email protected].
