mod_cluster is an httpd-based load balancer. Like mod_jk and mod_proxy, mod_cluster uses a communication channel to forward requests from httpd to one of a set of application server nodes. Unlike mod_jk and mod_proxy, mod_cluster leverages an additional connection between the application server nodes and httpd. The application server nodes use this connection to transmit server-side load balance factors and lifecycle events back to httpd via a custom set of HTTP methods, affectionately called the Mod-Cluster Management Protocol (MCMP). This additional feedback channel allows mod_cluster to offer a level of intelligence and granularity not found in other load balancing solutions.
Within httpd, mod_cluster is implemented as a set of modules for httpd with mod_proxy enabled. Much of the logic comes from mod_proxy, e.g. mod_proxy_ajp provides all the AJP logic needed by mod_cluster.
JBoss already prepares binary packages with httpd and mod_cluster so you can quickly try mod_cluster on the following platforms:
- Linux x86, x64, ia64
- Solaris x64, SPARC
- Windows x86, x64
- HP-UX PA-RISC, ia64
mod_cluster boasts the following advantages over other httpd-based load balancers:
- Dynamic configuration of httpd workers
- Traditional httpd-based load balancers require explicit configuration of the workers available to a proxy. In mod_cluster, the bulk of the proxy's configuration resides on the application servers. The set of proxies to which an application server will communicate is determined either by a static list or using dynamic discovery via the advertise mechanism. The application server relays lifecycle events (e.g. server startup/shutdown) to the proxies allowing them to effectively auto-configure themselves. Notably, the graceful shutdown of a server will not result in a failover response by a proxy, as is the case with traditional httpd-based load balancers.
- Server-side load balance factor calculation
- In contrast with traditional httpd-based load balancers, mod_cluster uses load balance factors calculated and provided by the application servers, rather than computing these in the proxy. Consequently, mod_cluster offers a more robust and accurate set of load metrics than is available from the proxy. (see Load Metrics for more)
- Fine grained web-app lifecycle control
- Traditional httpd-based load balancers do not handle web application undeployments particularly well. From the proxy's perspective requests to an undeployed web application are indistinguishable from a request for an non-existent resource, and will result in 404 errors. In mod_cluster, each server forwards any web application context lifecycle events (e.g. web-app deploy/undeploy) to the proxy informing it to start/stop routing requests for a given context to that server.
- AJP is optional
- Unlike mod_jk, mod_cluster does not require AJP. httpd connections to application server nodes can use HTTP, HTTPS, or AJP.
The original concepts are described in a wiki.
- httpd-2.2.8+
- JBoss AS 5.0.0+ or JBossWeb 2.1.1+
Note: httpd-2.2.8+ is already in the bundles, so if you use the bundle you don't need to download Apache httpd.
Download the latest mod_cluster release here.
The release is comprised of the following artifacts:
- httpd binaries for common platforms
- JBoss AS/JBossWeb/Tomcat binary distribution
Alternatively, you can build from source using the Git repository:
- Look to the documentation how to build the httpd modules and the Java archives
Quick Start
If you want to skip the details and just set up a minimal working installation of mod_cluster, see the Quick Start Guide in the documentation.
There are 2 locations for the configuration:
- Configuration for httpd
- Configuration JBoss AS/Web/Tomcat.
Migrating from mod_jk or mod_proxy is fairly straight forward. In general, much of the configuration previously found in httpd.conf is now defined in the application server nodes.
SSL support
Both the request connections between httpd and the application server nodes, and the feedback channel between the nodes and httpd can be secured. The former is achieved via the mod_proxy_https module and a corresponding ssl-enabled HTTP connector in JBoss Web. The latter requires the mod_ssl module and explicit configuration in JBoss AS/Web.
Load Balancing Demo Application
The mod_cluster binary distribution for JBoss AS/JBossWeb/Tomcat includes a demo application that helps demonstrate how different server-side scenarios affect the routing of client requests by the load balancer. The demo application is located in the mod_cluster distribution's demo directory.
Strong cryptography warning
Mod_cluster contains mod_ssl, therefore the warning (copied from OpenSSL)

Developers of the Zurmo Open Source Customer Relationship Management application today released Exchange and Outlook integration solutions for Zurmo commercial editions.
The added functionality includes email archiving between Outlook and Zurmo and complete bi-directional real-time synchronization of Contacts, Calendars, and Tasks between both tools. The integration is possible through the client side as an Outlook plugin and through the server side as an Exchange integration connector. Hosting for both options is available on premises or directly by Zurmo.
"We have invested significant resources toward this initiative, and now we have a great tool that makes using Zurmo even more seamless and attractive to enterprise users," said Zurmo Co-Founder Ray Stoeckicht in a statement. "Email alone is not customer relationship management. Outlook activities need to be recorded in order to have an effective CRM strategy. With this tight integration, it literally doesn't matter if data is being entered in Outlook or in Zurmo. It encourages user adoption as many customer-facing activities are already done through the world's most popular email application. Now users can keep up with their emails, tasks, and calendar without having to go back and forth between systems."
Both Exchange and Outlook integrations are included in Zurmo Pro for $32 per user per month. The tool can be added to the Zurmo Group Edition for $8 per user per month for an additional ad-hoc license fee.

NYC teachers pension fund divests from guns
NEW YORK The $46.6 billion pension fund for New York City schoolteachers has sold its stock in companies that make guns and ammunition, city officials announced Friday.
City Comptroller John Liu said the Dec. 14 school shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., prompted the funds board of trustees to review the systems investments in the gun industry.
He said the board concluded that divestment would be consistent with the funds fiduciary standards and overall investment process.
Jesse Jackson Jr., wife agree to plead guilty
WASHINGTON In a spectacular fall from political prominence, former U.S. Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. and his wife agreed Friday to plead guilty to federal charges growing out of what prosecutors said was a scheme to use $750,000 in campaign funds for lavish personal expenses, including a $43,000 gold watch and furs.
Federal prosecutors filed one charge of conspiracy against the former Chicago congressman and charged his ex-alderman wife, Sandra, with one count of filing false joint federal income tax returns for the years 2006 through 2011 that knowingly understated the income the couple received. Both agreed to plead guilty in deals with federal prosecutors.
Both face maximum penalties of several years in prison; he also faces hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines and forfeitures.
Penn State: Scandal costs more than $27M
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. Penn States bill for legal fees, consultants and other costs associated with the Jerry Sandusky child sex-abuse scandal stands at more than $27.6 million.
An updated figure as of November 2012 was provided this week on a university website. It includes a $13 million price tag for board of trustees communications and the internal investigation into the scandal by former FBI Director Louis Freeh.
Sandusky, a former assistant football coach under Paterno, is serving a prison term for 45 counts of child sexual abuse involving 10 boys. He maintains his innocence.
Photos of Chavez shown after 2-month absence
CARACAS, Venezuela The world got its first glimpse of Hugo Chavez since he underwent a fourth cancer-related surgery in Cuba more than two months ago, with photos released Friday showing the Venezuelan leader smiling alongside his daughters in Havana.
Along with images of the puffy-faced Chavez came a government explanation for why no one has heard from the longtime president since his surgery: Hes breathing through a tracheal tube that makes speech difficult.
Chavezs government described his condition as delicate and said he continues to undergo vigorous treatment for his fundamental illness.

WASHINGTON | Weeping and standing next to her celebrity lawyer, Natalie Khawam spoke publicly Tuesday for the first time since the scandal involving her sister, Jill Kelley, broke.
WASHINGTON | Weeping and standing next to her celebrity lawyer, Natalie Khawam spoke publicly Tuesday for the first time since the scandal involving her sister, Jill Kelley, broke.
But she offered little clarity in the situation that has led to the resignation of CIA Director David Petraeus and focused questions on the top ranking general in Afghanistan.
"I look forward to the day when I am able to answer everyone's questions and explain what really happened in this matter," Khawam said at a news conference at the Ritz Carlton hotel here.
Lawyer Gloria Allred arranged the meeting to counter what she said were inaccurate portrayals of Khawam in the news media and to press arguments in a custody case involving Khawam's son.
"Natalie is just one of the mothers in this country who has been forced to suffer because of family court decisions," Allred said, faulting a judge for not taking into account allegations of alleged domestic abuse by Khawam's ex-husband.
A judge earlier this year gave the man sole custody of the 4-year-old, saying he had "profound concerns about Ms. Khawam's poor logical thinking and her extreme distortions" and "severe psychological deficits."
In appealing the decision in September, Khawam presented to the court letters of support from Petraeus and Gen. John R. Allen, the top ranking U.S. general serving in Afghanistan. Allred said Tuesday that Petraeus and his wife, Holly, filed affidavits in the case out of friendship they developed and by observing her care of the boy.
"Natalie feels that they stood up for the truth as they knew it in her custody case, and she is deeply appreciative that the Petraeus family has continued to love and support her and her son during the hardest times," Allred said.

Arias testimony retreads details from killing
PHOENIX (AP) — Jodi Arias' defense attorney concluded his questioning of the defendant Tuesday after testimony in her Arizona death penalty case that largely repeated previous details from the day she says she killed her lover in self-defense.
Earlier in the day, Arias read from her journal as her attorneys worked to explain why she made no specific mention in her entries regarding claims that her lover physically abused her and had sexual desires for young boys.
Prosecutor Juan Martinez hammered her during his cross-examination about the fact that there was no proof of anything Arias had been telling jurors regarding her contention that Travis Alexander had become violent and abusive in the months leading up to his death.
Arias previously testified that she once walked in on Alexander viewing explicit pictures of young boys, something that has not been backed up by evidence or witnesses throughout the trial.
Martinez had pointed out repeatedly how Arias noted nearly every intimate detail of her life in her journal, yet made no reference to the incident.
"That's exactly the opposite of things I would want to note," Arias testified Tuesday under questioning by her own attorney. "I wouldn't want to remember that ... It was very shocking."
She then read another journal entry she says she wrote several days after discovering Alexander viewing the pictures.
"It still remains that I cannot marry him. I cannot quite put my finger on it, but something is just off with that boy," she read.
"What did you mean by that?" asked her defense attorney, Kirk Nurmi.
"That's kind of my indirect way of referring to his issues that were in my mind, something I couldn't look past or accept," Arias replied.
She also has testified that she didn't document negative events about Alexander because he often read her journal and would get angry.
Arias' attorneys were again working to portray the victim as a sexually deviant womanizer in an apparent effort to gain sympathy from jurors.
Arias is set to return to the witness stand Wednesday afternoon. Jurors in Arizona criminal cases are allowed to pose their own questions to witnesses via written notes provided to the judge and vetted by attorneys. The judge said the panel had about 100 questions for Arias.
Throughout her two weeks on the witness stand, Arias has made numerous assertions that Alexander owned a gun, physically abused her, and had illicit desires for children, none of which have been corroborated by testimony or witnesses.
Martinez concluded his cross-examination of Arias last week after hammering her repeatedly over her lies and efforts to create an alibi immediately after she killed Alexander.
She acknowledged that she dumped the gun in the desert, got rid of her bloody clothes, tried to clean the scene at Alexander's home, and even left the victim a voicemail on his mobile phone within hours of killing him and dragging his body into the shower. She said she was too scared and ashamed to tell the truth.
Arias' grandparents had reported a .25 caliber handgun stolen from their Northern California home about a week before the killing — the same caliber used to shoot Alexander — but Arias says she never knew her grandfather had the weapon. Authorities believe she brought it with her, though she has testified she shot Alexander with his own gun as he chased her into his closet after body-slamming her and threatening to kill her.
Alexander had also been stabbed and slashed nearly 30 times and had his throat slit.
Arias is charged with first-degree murder in the June 2008 attack in Alexander's suburban Phoenix home. She says it was self-defense, but police say she planned the killing in a jealous rage.
Arias initially told authorities she had nothing to do with Alexander's death then blamed it on masked intruders before settling on self-defense.

Aimlessly passing their days in the concrete environs of their dead-end suburbia, Vinz (Vincent Cassel), Hubert (Hubert Koundé), and Saïd (Saïd Taghmaoui)—white, black, and Arab—give human faces to France's immigrant and otherwise marginalized populations, their resentment at their situation simmering until it reaches a boiling point. A work of tough beauty, La haine is a landmark of contemporary French cinema and a gripping reflection of its country's ongoing identity crisis.

Being John Malkovich
Quote: Release Date: 15 May 2012

Certified Copy
Quote: Release Date: 22 May 2012
Synopsis: The great Iranian director Abbas Kiarostami travels to Tuscany for a luminous and provocative romance in which nothing is as it appears. What seems at first to be a straightforward tale of two people—played by Oscar-winning actress Juliette Binoche and opera singer William Shimell—getting to know each other over the course of an afternoon gradually reveals itself as something richer, stranger, and trickier: a mind-bending reflection on authenticity, in art as well as in relationships.

Eclipse Series 33: Up All Night with Robert Downey Sr.
Quote: Release Date: 22 May 2012
Synopsis: Rarely do landmark works of cinema seem so . . . wrong. Robert Downey Sr. emerged as one of the most irreverent filmmakers of the new American underground of the early sixties, taking no prisoners in his rough-and-tumble treatises on politics, race, and consumer culture. In his most famous, the midnight-movie mainstay Putney Swope, an advertising agency is turned on its head when a militant African American man takes charge. Like Swope, Downey held nothing sacred. This selection of five of his most raucous and outlandish films, dating from 1964 to 1975, offers a unique mix of the hilariously abrasive and the intensely experimental.
Collector's Set Includes:
- Babo 73 (1964)
- Chafed Elbows (1966)
- No More Excuses (1968)
- Putney Swope (1969)
- Two Tons of Turquoise to Taos Tonight (1975)
Summer Interlude
Quote: Release Date: 29 May 2012
Synopsis: Touching on many of the themes that would define the rest of his legendary career—isolation, performance, the inescapability of the past—the tenth film by Ingmar Bergman was a gentle sway toward true mastery. In one of the director's great early female roles, Maj-Britt Nilsson beguiles as Marie, an accomplished ballet dancer haunted by her tragic youthful affair with a shy, handsome student (Birger Malmsten). Her memories of the rocky shores of Stockholm's outer archipelago mingle with scenes from her gloomy present, most of them set in the dark backstage environs of the theater where she works. A film that the director considered a creative turning point, Summer Interlude is a reverie on life and death that bridges the gap between Bergman's past and future, theater and cinema.
Disc Features
-New high-definition digital restoration, with uncompressed monaural soundtrack on the Blu-ray edition
-New English subtitle translation
-A booklet featuring an essay by film scholar Peter Cowie
Summer with Monika
Quote: Release Date: 29 May 2012
Synopsis: Inspired by the earthy eroticism of his muse Harriet Andersson, in the first of her many roles for him, Ingmar Bergman had a major international breakthrough with this ravaging, sensual tale of young love. In Stockholm, a girl (Andersson) and boy (Lars Ekborg) from working-class families run away from home to spend a secluded, romantic summer at the beach, far from parents and responsibilities. Inevitably, it is not long before the pair is forced to return to reality. The version originally released in the U.S. was reedited by its distributor into something more salacious, but the original Summer with Monika, as presented here, is a work of stunning maturity and one of Bergman's most important films.
Disc Features
-New high-definition digital restoration, with uncompressed monaural soundtrack on the Blu-ray edition
-Introduction by director Ingmar Bergman
-New interview with actress Harriet Andersson, conducted by film critic Peter Cowie
-New interview with film scholar Eric Schaefer about Kroger Babb and Babb's distribution of Monika: Story of a Bad Girl as an exploitation film
- Images from the Playground, a half-hour documentary by Stig Björkman with behind-the-scenes footage shot by Bergman, archival audio interviews with Bergman, and new interviews with actresses Bibi Andersson and Harriet Andersson
-New English subtitle translation
-A booklet featuring an essay by film scholar Laura Hubner, a 1958 review by filmmaker Jean-Luc Godard, and a publicity piece from 1953 in which Bergman interviews himself

La Haine and Being John Malkovich, woohoo!!!
It is a pleasant surprise to see Being John Malkovich get a Criterion release! I need to pick it up sometime.
And of course, more Bergman is always good. I'm awaiting The Virgin Spring and Autumn Sonata. And I really hope Criterion get the rights to Persona sometime. That would make a very good Criterion release.

Being John Malkovich for me.
Sweet, more Bergman films.
Just the other day I was looking at my sealed DVD copy of LA HAINE and wishing that it was a Blu-Ray.
Nice to see more Bergman Blu-ray releases. I really hope they do The Virgin Spring. And though I'm pretty sure Criterion doesn't have the rights to it, it would be nice to see a Blu-ray release of Hour of the Wolf.
Being John Malkovich is an absolute buy for me!!!!!

My inspiration for cooking can come from a variety of things. Sometimes I get inspired by having a dish from a restaurant that I've never had before and try to replicate it at home. Sometimes inspiration comes from recipes I may see on television. I mostly get inspired by the certain items I see in the grocery store or farmer's market.
Sometimes I fail at the outcome of what I'm making and sometimes I succeed. I just like to try new things and expand my horizons when it comes to testing new ingredients or cooking methods. James, my fiancé is a great guinea pig. He will generally eat whatever I make and is honest about how the food tastes. Unlike James, I myself am much more critical about how my food turns out.
Sweet Pepper and Spinach Dip
16 oz. Cream cheese
1/4 c. Grated Romano/Parmesan
2 c. Mini sweet peppers
1 c. Sautéed spinach
1 c. Plain Greek yogurt
4 Cloves of garlic
1/2 t. Garlic powder
1/2 t. Onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Cook Time: 1.5 hours
Preheat oven to 375*.
Unpackage room temperature cream cheese into a large mixing bowl and set aside. Cut spinach into small ribbons. Mince 4 cloves of garlic. Thinly slice sweet peppers, about 6-8. Discard seeds from the peppers.
In a sauté pan, sauté spinach in olive oil until wilted and then add garlic and sauté until garlic aroma has been released from cooking. Add a pinch of salt and fresh cracked pepper to spinach and set aside.
Add yogurt, cheese, garlic powder and onion powder to the cream cheese mixing bowl. Mix until all of the ingredients have integrated with each other. Then add spinach and peppers and mix until well integrated into the cheese mixture.
Transfer to a small casserole dish and bake for 45 minutes.
Let cool for 10 minutes before eating.

Ownership chains are the foundation for a flexible and robust security scheme. The feature has been around since the early days of SQL Server, but its full potential is seldom realized because even some experienced SQL Server DBAs don't understand all aspects of how ownership chains work. Although DBAs commonly use ownership chains as a security tool in a single database, they don't always employ cross-database ownership chains when appropriate. You can use interdatabase ownership chains to reduce your security administration burden and provide a secure environment. You need to understand a few basic concepts and techniques to maximize the power of ownership chains in an easy-to-maintain security model with SQL Server 2000 and 7.0.
Controlling Object Access
The basis for SQL Server database object security is that all database objects have an owner and the owner controls access by granting object permissions to users and roles. When an object depends on another object, such as when a view references a table, an ownership chain is established. The ownership chain remains unbroken as long as the same user owns all of the objects involved.

You can use inter-database ownership chains to reduce your security administration burden and provide a secure environment. You need to understand a few basic concepts and techniques to maximize the power of ownership chains in an easy-to-maintain security model with SQL Server 2000 and 7.0.
Ownership Chain Concepts
The basis for SQL Server database object security is that all database objects have an owner and the owner controls access by granting object permissions to users and roles. When an object depends on another object, such as when a view references a table, an ownership chain is established. The ownership chain remains unbroken as long as the same user owns all of the objects involved.
A user who has SELECT permission on a view can retrieve data from the view even without permissions on the underlying tables as long as the view and tables have the same owner. An unbroken ownership chain gives object owners more control over access to underlying data because users need permissions only on objects they directly access. The object owner can allow access to data through views, stored procedures, and functions while preventing direct access to the underlying tables. However, object owners need to remember that granting permissions gives users indirect access to the referenced objects.
When referencing and referenced objects have different owners, the ownership chain is broken, so SQL Server checks current user permissions on the referenced objects during query execution. Although an object might reference objects that another user owns in a broken ownership chain, the owner of the referenced objects has to grant permissions on those objects. Thus, object owners retain control over the accessibility of their database objects and data.
The rules governing ownership chains apply only to object permissions, including SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, and EXECUTE permissions on tables, views, procedures, and functions. SQL Server always checks users' permissions to statements such as BACKUP, CREATE, and other Data Definition Language (DDL) statements because these permissions apply to the statement rather than a specific object.
An Unbroken Chain
Ownership chains can help you accomplish security objectives, which include making data available only to authorized users and ensuring data integrity by providing consistent and controlled access to data. You can employ an unbroken ownership chain to limit users to a subset of columns (vertical partitioning), a subset of rows (horizontal partitioning), or both by creating objects such as filtering views, stored procedures, and functions that filter data from underlying tables. Authorized users who don't have direct access to the tables can still access data through the referencing object because the ownership chain is unbroken. However, users are confined to the filtered data subset. Consequently, you can better control access to sensitive data by granting permissions on the objects rather than allowing direct access to tables.
An unbroken ownership chain also provides more control over data modification. You can encapsulate data-manipulation code in stored procedures so that users execute stored procedures to perform data modification rather than updating tables directly. This approach gives users only limited ways to modify data, and essential table data remains consistent and secure. The unbroken ownership chain that you establish eliminates the need for INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE permissions on the underlying tables. Not only does the stored procedure interface ensure that users modify data in a consistent way, but it gives you more freedom to make schema changes without breaking user or application queries.
Ownership Chain Links
SQL Server identifies object owners by their security ID (SID)—not by username—in ownership chains. Because the SID is the link in the ownership chain, you can think of objects as owned by SQL Server logins rather than database users.
The subtle difference between username and SID isn't a concern with intradatabase ownership chains because each object owner (database user) is mapped to one login. As a result, all objects that a user owns in a single database are always associated with the same SID. However, when multiple databases are involved, you need to consider that users who have the same name in different databases can be associated with different logins; when the different logins show up in the ownership chain, the chain is broken. Also, a login might be mapped to different usernames in different databases. Such a situation doesn't break the ownership chain even though the object owner names are different.
The code in Listing 1 shows the importance of SIDs in inter-database ownership chains. The script creates two databases, Database1 and Database2, which are owned by logins DatabaseOwner1 and DatabaseOwner2, respectively. View \[Database2\].\[dbo\].\[MyView\] references table \[Database1\].\[dbo\].\[MyTable\], and to the public role, I've granted SELECT permissions on the view but not on the table. The code then attempts to select from the view under the guest user security context.
The ownership chain at first appears unbroken because the table and view owners are both DBO. However, the DBO users are mapped to different logins. Consequently, the object owner SIDs are different, and the interdatabase ownership chain is broken. The result is that the first SELECT statement fails with a permission error because the user doesn't have SELECT permission on the table.
When database ownership changes so that the same login (DatabaseOwner1) owns both databases, the SELECT statement succeeds even though the user doesn't have permission to access the table directly. The ownership chain is unbroken in this case because the DBO user in each database maps to the same login. SQL Server Books Online (BOL) isn't clear about the importance of database ownership in interdatabase ownership chains. For a clearer, more detailed explanation of how SQL Server determines whether to check permissions, see the Microsoft article "INF: Object Ownership Chain Checking Across Databases Depends on Database Ownership."
Note that I've included the SETUSER command in the script to illustrate the behavior of cross-database ownership chains. SETUSER lets a DBA test security through a single database connection, but the command is included in SQL Server 2000 and 7.0 for backward compatibility only; you shouldn't use SETUSER in production code because the command's behavior might change in future SQL Server releases or service packs. You can achieve the same result without SETUSER by executing the SELECT statements when you're logged on as any non-sa user other than DatabaseOwner1. You can't use the DatabaseOwner1 login to test security because it has full permissions on all Database1 objects. Similarly, the sa login is the DBO in all databases and has full permissions on all objects.
For an interdatabase ownership chain to be unbroken, object owners in the different databases must map to the same login. You can execute the sp_helpuser system stored procedure in each database to get a report that shows login and user mapping.
You can use the sp_changedbowner system stored procedure to change database ownership so that all DBO-owned objects in the databases involved in the chain map to the same login SID. When you use sp_changedbowner, you might get the ambiguous error 15110, The proposed new database owner is already a user in the database, if SQL Server detects a mismatch between the DBO SID recorded in the sysdatabases and sysusers system tables. Such a mismatch might occur if someone other than the original owner restored the database. The SID column in sysdatabases shows the user who restored the database, but the DBO SID in the sysusers table still contains the original owner.
You can easily correct a SID mismatch. The script that Listing 2 shows temporarily changes database ownership to a non-conflicting login (TempOwner), which synchronizes the DBO in the sysdatabases and sysusers tables. You can then change the DBO to the desired login (sa).
Interdatabase Considerations
SQL Server logins must have access to all the databases they use, even when they access objects indirectly, as in the case of a view referencing a table in another database. However, rather than add individual users to each database, you might want to employ the guest user in situations in which users don't need direct access to database objects. This kind of setup simplifies security administration because all logins can share the guest user context. You can add the guest user to user databases by using the sp_grantdbaccess system stored procedure. Note that SQL Server automatically adds the guest user to the master, msdb, and tempdb system databases.
You can use your knowledge of interdatabase ownership chains to control the use of master database objects, especially extended stored procedures and OLE Automation (sp_OA*) stored procedures. These procedures can provide users with helpful application functionality but can pose a considerable security risk if used inappropriately. For example, the xp_cmdshell extended stored procedure is both powerful and dangerous. It can execute virtually any program or OS command through a single T-SQL statement and provides a simple and efficient method for applications to invoke command-line utilities such as DTSRUN or bulk copy program (bcp) directly on the database server. However, unless implemented carefully, xp_cmdshell can let unauthorized users execute commands.
By default, only members of the sysadmin fixed server role can execute xp_cmdshell. A non-sysadmin user who has EXECUTE permission on xp_cmdshell can execute ad hoc OS commands and programs. Non-sysadmin users are limited only by the xp_cmdshell OS security context, which is the local SQLAgentCmdExec account in SQL Server 7.0, and by the configurable SQL Server Agent proxy account in SQL Server 2000. Members of the sysadmin fixed server role run under the security context of the SQL Server service account.
A common misconception is that non-sysadmin users need to have direct EXECUTE permissions on xp_cmdshell to use the procedure. This is not the case, thanks to interdatabase ownership chains. You can disallow ad hoc commands while still letting applications exploit xp_cmdshell functionality by creating a DBO-owned user stored procedure in an sa-owned user database that executes xp_cmdshell. The ownership chain isn't broken because the owner of both procedures (the DBO) maps to the same login (sa). Users need to have EXECUTE permissions only on the user procedure, and they can access the master database as the guest user.
This indirect access to xp_cmdshell provides an additional layer of security because users are confined to using only the code in the stored procedure. However, you need to construct the xp_cmdshell command within the stored procedure in a way that prevents users from executing commands other than the ones you intend them to execute.
For example, an application could use a stored procedure to export data from a table into a text file by executing the bcp command-line utility through xp_cmdshell. The sample procedure usp_UnsecureBCPCommand, which Listing 3 shows, executes the passed parameter directly with no restrictions. Consequently, users who have EXECUTE permissions on usp_UnsecureBCPCommand have the same power as users who have direct EXECUTE permissions on xp_cmdshell—they can execute any ad hoc command. You can plug this security hole by using Listing 4's usp_SecureBCPCommand procedure, which doesn't accept ad hoc commands. Users are confined to exporting files to a predetermined location. Similarly, you can control access to other master database objects such as xp_sendmail and the sp_OA* procedures.
Some security risks are inherent with sa database ownership of user databases. Users who have permissions to create a DBO-owned procedure in an sa-owned user database can create and execute a procedure that executes xp_cmdshell without restrictions. Consequently, you should scrutinize the membership of the db_owner and ddl_admin fixed database roles in a production environment in which sa owns a user database.
Application-Role Considerations
Application roles are also useful for limiting ad hoc database access. (For an introduction to application roles, see Andy Baron and Mary Chipman's article "Mastering Application Roles," June 2001.) A limitation of application roles is that an application role is recognized only within a single database, so users can access other databases as the guest user only after the role is activated. Multi-database applications that use application roles must grant object permissions to the guest user in other databases, either directly or through role membership. However, you often want to avoid granting object permissions to the guest user because when you do so, you effectively give all SQL Server logins permissions on the object.
You can use indirect object permissions to augment application-role security in multidatabase applications. When you create referencing objects in the application-role database (e.g., a view that selects from a table in another database), application-role users can access objects in other databases even when they don't have direct permissions. The referenced database simply needs to contain the guest user, and the ownership chain needs to be unbroken. Interdatabase access by application-role users is identical to interdatabase access by non-applicationrole users, except that the users must access other databases through the guest user security context.
Best Practices
In most production SQL Server implementations, the DBA commonly creates all objects with DBO as the owner. DBO ownership of all objects guarantees that intradatabase ownership chains are never broken. Furthermore, making sa the owner of all databases ensures that interdatabase ownership chains also are never broken. Standardized ownership simplifies administration and makes unbroken ownership chains automatic—you need to grant permissions only on objects that users and applications use directly. Several other best practices complement this strategy:
- Add users to the fixed database roles (e.g., db_owner, db_ddladmin) rather than making users DBOs. Fixed database role membership lets users perform administrative functions while maintaining an unbroken ownership chain to other databases.
- Grant object permissions only to database roles, and control object access through user role membership. Although this practice isn't directly related to ownership chains, roles reduce the effort necessary to manage security.
- Add users to databases only when they require direct object access. When users need only indirect access, add the guest user to the database. You don't need to grant object permissions to the guest user when you have an unbroken ownership chain and indirect object access.
Avoid dynamic SQL in stored procedures. On statements that run dynamically through EXECUTE or sp_executesql, SQL Server checks permissions in the security context of the user who executed the procedure instead of the procedure owner. As a result, users must have permissions on all objects that are directly referenced by dynamically executed statements. For example, the statement
EXECUTE sp_executesql N'SELECT * FROM MyTable'
requires that the user have SELECT permission on MyTable even when the same user owns the procedure and table.
An unbroken ownership chain is an important and powerful weapon in a DBA's arsenal. The feature provides the means for a flexible application security architecture and maximizes performance. With prudent planning and practices, an unbroken ownership chain becomes an essential device in SQL Server security deployment.

The musical will be directed by Mary S. Wright, with Annie McIntyre as assistant director. Producers will be Lisa Brown and Mary Haite.
The JCT produced "Cinderella" in 1995, and although Rogers and Hammerstein originally wrote the play for adults only, the JCT cast and chorus were, and again will be, comprised of children, teens and adults.
The JCT cast in the1995 production played to standing ovations. They included Rosanna Campbell, Cinderella; Jamie Lurgio, the prince; Bob Grenier, the herald; Suzanne Clarke, the queen; Matt Clarke, the king; Cynthia Flagg, stepmother; Becky Peppas, stepsister; Joanne Phillips, stepsister; and Caitlin Brome, fairy godmother. The musical was originally produced live for television; first in 1957, with Julie Andrews as Cinderella, then remade in 1965 with Lesley Ann Warren in the title role, accompanied by Ginger Rogers and Walter Pidgeon as the king and queen; Celeste Holm as the fairy godmother; Jo Van Fleet as the stepmother, with Pat Carroll and Barbara Ruick as her daughters, Prunella and Esmerelda, and Stuart Damon as the prince. Another production, the last, and the only one filmed, featured "Brandy" in the lead role, with Whitney Houston as her fairy godmother, Bernadette Peters as Cinderella's stepmother, Paolo Montalbán as the prince, Whoopi Goldberg as the queen, Victor Garber as the king, and Jason Alexander as Lionel, the herald.
The final aspect of grandson Tom's Eagle Scout project will take place this Saturday, June 5, beginning at 10 a.m. in the Conanicut Island Sanctuary across from the police station. Tom is looking for other scouts, past or present, and volunteers from the community to come out and help with the project. Activities will include trail maintenance and the installation of swallow houses for insect control. Bring along garden tools like rakes and pruners.
Tom said help is worth a month of good deeds. "I'd really appreciate your coming out." The rain date is Sunday. Questions? Call Tom at 829-2762.
Great response to Peter Pemantell's poser. David Reilly at the Pell Bridge; Ed Silvia; Mike Larkin, whose band used to play it; Elizabeth Mancini; and Sam Bari all identified the lyrics from "Wooly Bully" by Sam the Sham and the Pharaohs, recorded in 1965.
Jeff Hunter added that the song was the biggest hit by Sam the Sham and the Pharaohs. "Their under appreciated follow-up hit a bit later was 'Little Red Riding Hood,' then, for all practical purposes, poof!"
Betty Kinder says she has no idea who sang it. "It's a great song to dance to especially on 'Dancing with the Stars.'

B.J.'s May 20 poser drew this response from Jill Anderson:
"It's great to see my old favorite, the late great Harry Chapin quoted in your column by B.J., with lyrics from an oft-recorded favorite "Cats in the Cradle."
"Folks would be surprised by the number of songs they recognize that were written by Harry. Most of the songs he wrote and recorded himself were much too long to play on the radio, so most folks do not know him other than his hit song 'Taxi.' There must be other Harry fans on the island..."

User talk:Managementboy
I said it wasn't the *ideal* place to ask questions as it relies on me to watch the page. Probably only two of us pay attention to the MythUI wiki pages, but there are many more experienced themers in IRC. Likewise, in the mailing lists all the questions and answers become a searchable archive-- Talk pages on the wiki aren't and are difficult to parse. If you want to ask your questions and have them seen by the widest audience *and* become available to others for future use in a simple to access way, the IRC channel (which has searchable logs) and the mailing lists are your best choice. While I probably won't go on answering basic usage questions in the wiki, I will continue to answer them in either of those two places.
The mythui documentation is NOT FINISHED. Much like the code it documents, it's a work in progress. It will be completed shortly before, or just after, the release of 0.22 and will be much more comprehensive than the old theme howtos. It's a little unfair to be critiquing documentation for a version which is months from release.--GBee 18:52, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

Medicaid still a budgetary sticking pointBy GARRY RAYNO
State House Bureau
June 14. 2013 11:52PM
CONCORD — The Senate's chief budget negotiator drew a line in the sand Friday on the first day of talks on the state's operating budget for the next two years.
Senate Finance Committee Chairman Chuck Morse, R-Salem, told House negotiators Medicaid expansion, tax and fee increases and overblown tax estimates are off the table.
The biggest area of disagreement is Medicaid expansion under the Affordable Care Act, which has the support of Gov. Maggie Hassan and the House, but the Senate wants to wait for a yet-to-be-established commission to study the impacts of expansion on the state.
"The issue is far too complex to be lumped into 100 or so more issues in House Bill 2," Morse said. "The issue should go through the normal legislative process as a stand alone bill.''
Later, Senate President Peter Bragdon, R-Milford, who proposed the Medicaid expansion study commission, said there is some room to talk about Medicaid expansion during budget negotiations.
"It is very difficult to get any kind of language that would implement Medicaid expansion — a very complex issue — in three days," Bragdon said. "I'm open to discussing the role of the commission, the time frame and what we ask the commission to do."
He said senators want to look under the hood of the vehicle they're being asked to buy.
Hassan and House and Senate Democrats have argued the state should expand Medicaid in order to add about 58,000 citizens to the state-federal health insurance program for the poor, disabled and elderly. They say the state would be foolish to turn down $2.5 billion in federal money, which will improve the health of residents and boost the economy.
Morse also attempted to end any discussion about additional state revenue through taxes.
He said the Senate would not entertain increased revenue estimates to justify more spending.
The House Ways and Means Committee recently boosted estimates by $49.2 million more than the Senate's.
"We will be skeptical about inflating those estimates in order to increase spending in this budget," Morse said. "The families of New Hampshire have to live within their existing means and we as a government should do so as well."
The House chief negotiator, House Finance Committee Chair Mary Jane Wallner, D-Concord, took a more conciliatory tone."We are all here to have a positive outcome for our state," Wallner said, noting she and Morse had been meeting. "I look forward to the next four days as we work towards a new budget.''Friday the two sides made little progress on areas where they disagree, such as business tax credits the House wants to delay for two years but the Senate does not, or charter school expansion, which the Senate funded, but the House did not.
A major area of disagreement is a $50 million across-the-board reduction in compensation and benefits that is projected to result in 700 layoffs. Of the $50 million reduction, $20 million has to come from general fund dollars.
The two sides did agree to take $16.1 million out of the Renewable Energy Fund for energy efficiency projects and put the money into the state's general fund.
The two budget proposals included identical funding for such big tickets items as higher education aid, the mental health system and developmentally disabled services
The House passed an $11 billion budget and the Senate approved $10.7 billion. Both plans spend about $2.8 billion in state general fund money.
Budget negotiators will meet again Monday at 9 a.m. when they will discuss revenue estimates and Medicaid expansion.
The deadline for conference committees to come to agreements is Thursday. The Senate deadline is noon and the House's is 4 p.m.

Kat Graham: 'Power' Exclusive Single Artwork & Interview!
Kat Graham is gorgeous in this new artwork for her single "Power," given exclusively to JustJaredJr.com!
The artwork, shot by Tony Duran, perfectly channels her hot new single, which will be available for download on iTunes on July 30!
PHOTOS: Check out the latest pics of Kat Graham
JJJ caught up with Kat to talk about her music, her favorite artists, and what we can expect from her character Bonnie in the upcoming season of her hit show The Vampire Diaries.
And in case you missed it, check out the lyric video for the song!
Click inside to read our interview with Kat Graham…
JustJaredJr.com Interview – Kat Graham
JustJaredJr.com: We love the song! Can you tell us a little about it and what it means to you?
Kat Graham: The song is basically, it's an anthem, but it's also what you feel when somebody empowers you. It could be your family, it could be a relationship, it could be a best friend, someone who can see the best part of you and bring out the best part of you, and make you feel strong. I'm all about girl power and self-empowerment. I totally connected with the song. I'm just glad people are responding so well to it.
JJJ: Will we be seeing a music video soon?
KG: There will be a video. I'm going to be releasing some different content over the next few weeks for the fans until we shoot the video. It's all coming together really well and I'm really proud of the song, and everything around it.
JJJ: Any ideas floating around about the concept for the video?
KG: I did a very fashion-forward, more literal take on the song. But that's just an option, and if it might just be for the fans. As of right now, we haven't figured out exactly because we've played with so many different ideas. We definitely want the vulnerability of what the song means, that there is power in being vulnerable and allowing yourself to come to love. We definitely want to make sure the director captures that.
JJJ: You're so busy! But will we see a full album at some point?
KG: We're talking about an EP, we're talking about an album. I've recorded about 63 songs in my entire catalog and that includes "Put Your Graffiti On Me," "Heartkiller," and the stuff from the Against the Wall EP. We've got plenty to choose from, for sure. And "Power" is one of the best ones we have in the catalog and that was one of the ones I wanted out first. Definitely before the end of the year, we'll get some more songs out to you guys.
JJJ: Do you think the album will have that same kind of theme?
KG: I've got to work with the amazing producers. It's eclectic. We wanted to see what the single would be and now we base the album around what fits within that world sonically. I do think that the overall message is always about finding your power amongst the ash.
JJJ: When did you first start getting into music?
KG: I started off as a musical engineer. I started off as a DJ and I wanted to be a battle DJ when I was 14. I got into engineering and bought some equipment.
JJJ: Oh cool! So what are you currently listening to?
KG: I jump around. This past week, I've been listening to some 90s pop. I've been listening to a lot of Spice Girls, to be honest. Also, Swedish pop. I love Robyn. I love strong women and crazy beats. I really love Kendrick Lamar, Miguel, and R&B. So that's what I've been listening to, but I also really really love old-school pop.
JJJ: Do you think you'll be doing some more shows in the near future?
KG: Oh, yeah! I did a bunch of radio festivals. Getting to play these huge venues of thousands of kids has been so great and so rewarding. They are fans of the show and familiar with the music. I've been doing a lot of festivals. I haven't done my own, full on set yet.
JJJ: And as for The Vampire Diaries, which we love, what can you tell us about Bonnie's journey this season, now as a ghost? Will we be seeing a lot of her?
KG: You will see her. I've started! Nobody knows yet. I actually saw some stuff online where people were like, "Does anyone know if Kat's on set?!" We left the season with the only person who could see me, which was Jeremy. And that's kind of where we're picking up. Bonnie trying to find her way and how she can be as much a part of the living world as this dead person, and really trying to find her way throughout it with Jeremy being the only person who can see her. She's a bit limited, to say the least. But it's very cool how they've been writing her so far. I like to stay a little bit vague because anything can change, but right now it's very cool. It's fun to be back on set with my girls and with the whole team.
Be sure to pick up Kat's single Power" on iTunes starting July 30!

Firecrackers set off in mailboxes prompt police to step up patrolsBy JASON SCHREIBER
Union Leader Correspondent
January 30. 2014 9:14PM
RAYMOND — Firecrackers set off in several mailboxes in a local neighborhood in recent days has prompted a police investigation.
At least six mailboxes were targeted on Blueberry Hill Road, Blackberry Lane, Blake Road and Huckleberry Lane, police Lt. Mike Labell said.
Police were made aware of the firecrackers Monday when they were notified by the local post office.
Labell said a mail carrier was delivering mail when she found an unused firecracker on Blackberry Lane. The remains of a firecracker were also found inside and around a mailbox at another Blackberry Lane residence. In that case, Labell said, the shell of the firecracker was broken because it had exploded. The mail inside the box was also burned in the explosion.
Four other residents discovered similar firecracker explosions and reported them to police.
"We do get mailbox vandalism from time to time, but it's usually not this frequent," Labell said.
No one has been injured in the incidents, but police are worried that someone could be hurt if they continue.
Police have stepped up patrols in the neighborhood and are asking the public to remain vigilant and report anything suspicious.
Labell said police aren't sure of the time when the incidents occurred because no one reported hearing explosions.
"There's been nothing for leads as far as suspicious activity or suspicious noises. We're hoping with the public's help, we can narrow it down," he said.
While any type of mailbox vandalism is a concern, the risk of injury to a homeowner or a mail carrier is less in cases where a firecracker is used because it's designed to go off within a few seconds, said Michael Gendron, a United States postal inspector based in Manchester.
A bigger threat, Gendron said, is when someone used a pressurized device that might explode at a later time.
"We see that from time to time, and that's somewhat of a bigger concern. Regardless of what it is, carrier safety is a huge concern of ours," he said. "Carriers are reminded that if you see anything in the mailboxes that are a concern, back away."
Anyone with information related to the investigation or who notices suspicious activity is asked to call the Raymond Police Department at 895-4747.


text: You know: many of us justify our use of accessible voting machines by citing the ability to cast a secret, independent ballot. Yet for the first part of our history, voting was often done by moving to different sides of a room or by voice vote (as in a small town) and the first written ballots were literally written by hands. They weren't printed by state or local governments or the Federal government. As eligibility to vote was extended to people other than white males who owned property, the practical effect of requiring written ballots was to screen out those who were illiterate, i.e., racial minorities and immigrants -- very convenient. The various political parties got around this by printing their own ballots which often looked like tickets. Hence, the phrase "he ran on the party ticket". Someone who was only marginally illiterate could mark his ballot (no women votes until 1920) and turn it in. But the "secret" ballots we know today actually weren't invented here but rather in Australia in the 1850's. In fact, government-printed ballots filled out in private voting booths were originally called "Australian ballots". My point was that, for the first part of our history, it was considered faintly shady to insist upon casting a secret ballot; the general consensus was that people ought to be man enough (as I say, no women until 1920) to cast a public vote. So much for a history lesson.

With the points { y i , c i } in hand, we can reconstruct K g via approximation as before
The name EGM comes from the fact that the grid { y i } is determined endogenouslyendogenously
Let's implement this version of the Coleman operator and see how it performs
Here's an implementation of K using EGM as described above
Note the lack of any root finding algorithm
We'll also run our original implementation, which uses an exogenous grid and requires root finding, so we can perform some comparisons
Let's test out the code above on some example parameterizations, after the following imports
As we did for value function iteration and time iteration , let's start by testing our method with the log-linear benchmark
Longitudinal functional analysis of HCMV-specific T cells in HLA class I-matched SOT recipients using IFN-γ ELISPOT assays and peptide epitopes from HCMV antigens (Table 1 ). Data from an individual recipient are presented in each panel. Data from individuals with no evidence of viral recrudescence are presented in panels A to E, those from individuals with asymptomatic recrudescence are presented in panels F to J, and those from individuals with symptomatic recrudescence are presented in panels K to O. Data presented in panels A to E, K, L, and N are based on SOT patients who received heart and/or lung transplants, while data in panels F to J, M, and O are based on renal transplant recipients. Gray-shaded areas in panels K to O indicate the time period when clinically active HCMV disease was diagnosed and the patient was being treated with antiviral medication (Table 2 ). Patients B, D, and E received antiviral prophylaxis based on oral ganciclovir. The results are expressed as spot-forming cells (SFC) per 10 CD3/CD8 T cells. Also shown in panels F to O is the HCMV load in peripheral blood of these patients as HCMV copies/10 PBMC. Blood sample collection time points (weeks) for each of the donors are indicated on the axis.
Ex vivo enumeration of HCMV-specific CD8 T cells using MHC-peptide multimers. PBMC from SOT recipients were costained with anti-human CD8 tricolor-labeled antibody and phycoerythrin (PE)-labeled MHC-peptide tetramers/pentamers. The fluorescence intensity was assessed with a FACSCalibur, and data were analyzed using Cellquest software. Representative data plots for three different HCMV epitopes, NLV (HLA A2 restricted), VTE (HLA A1 restricted), and TPR (HLA B7 restricted), are shown in panel A. Panel B shows percentages of MHC-peptide multimer-positive CD8 T cells in samples from individuals with no evidence of viral recrudescence, with asymptomatic recrudescence, and with symptomatic recrudescence. Panel C shows the phenotypic analysis of HCMV-specific T cells in these individuals. HCMV-specific T cells were costained with anti-human CD38 antibody. Data presented in panels B and C are based on all the blood samples collected at different time points as indicated in Fig.

There is no single leadership trait that guarantees success in any profession, but there is one that many of the best leaders share: a fierce commitment to objectivity. And yet it's often not easy for leaders to remain objective. Perhaps nowhere is this struggle more clear, or the stakes higher, than in the intelligence community, where leaders are charged with providing balanced, fact-based advice to the President. It's never easy to deliver bad news or appear critical of a policy, but the best intelligence leaders know that it's their job to tell the White House the unvarnished truth— not to make policy, but to give the Executive Branch the data it needs to make those policy decisions.Regardless of the work you do, prize your objectivity, and work every day to preserve it.
There is no single leadership trait that guarantees success in any profession, but there is, based on my experience, one that many of the best leaders share: a fierce commitment to objectivity. And yet I realize it's often not easy for leaders to remain objective.
In my nearly three-decade career in the intelligence community, I have worked for and with11 Directors of CIA and all five Directors of National Intelligence. Each has brought their own personality and skill set to the job, and each in their time has faced their own set of challenges, from deeply contentious relationships with the White House and Congress to unforeseen terrorist attacks on the homeland and U.S. diplomatic facilities overseas. I think each would agree that leading in the intelligence community is a daily exercise in crisis management, whether at the helm of CIA with its global analytic and operational responsibilities, or at the Office of the Director of National Intelligence with its oversight responsibilities for the entire intelligence community.

Maicon Santos is on the move again.
The Brazilian forward was selected by the Chicago Fire in the first stage of the MLS Re-Entry Draft Friday, making that his fifth MLS team since 2010. Santos scored seven goals and had three assists for D.C. United in 2012, but he did not have his option picked up by the team and became eligible for the player dispersal mechanism.
In the first stage, teams are required to pick up existing options or extend a "bona fide offer" for players who had either had their options declined or became out of contract. Santos' base salary was $106,400 this past season, and he automatically has his contract option picked up by the Fire and is added to the club's roster.
Since joining MLS in 2009, Santos has been well-traveled. He entered the league with Chivas USA before going to Toronto FC during the following season. He split 2011 between Toronto and FC Dallas before signing with D.C. United during last year's offseason. He was a mainstay in Ben Olsen's starting XI for the opening portion of the season, scoring all seven of his goals by May 26. After that point he started six more times and did not register a tally.
The second stage of the Re-Entry Draft will be conducted next Friday, and more action is anticipated as has been the case in the past two years, since the draft's inception. Teams no longer have to exercise existing options on the available players. Those players who were not selected in the opening phase may negotiate with their current teams or can be traded up until next Thursday at 5 p.m. ET.
Draft-eligible players of note who may still be available next week include veterans Juan Pablo Angel, Conor Casey and Kevin Hartman, Canadian international Julian de Guzman and 2012 U.S. U-23 captain Ike Opara. Any player who goes unselected after next Friday's round will become a free agent.
