U.S. Rep. Greg Walden, R-Ore., fielded questions ranging from reductions in military funding to "heavy handed" labor regulations and gun control at Monday's town hall meeting in The Dalles.
Walden toured a construction site on the Columbia Gorge Community College campus with Dr. Frank Toda, college president, prior to addressing about 100 people who gathered in the Building Two auditorium on campus.
Other local government leaders helped provide the Congressman with a tour of the work zone where a new National Guard Readiness Center will stand in the near future.
Supervisors from Hoffman Construction of Portland, lead contractors on the $25 million project, explained the layout of the 61,000-square-foot facility on 7 acres at the eastern edge of the campus. The center, funded by state and federal dollars, will also incorporate a lecture hall and classroom space for students and provide conference space for the community.
The development is expected to be completed sometime this fall and will used primarily to train 150 soldiers with Alpha Company, which is based in The Dalles.
"This is the type of thing you can get done when you get everyone working together," said Walden after completing the tour.
He was asked by one audience member at the Jan. 7 town hall if he would support further cuts in military funding to cover the cost of health care and other domestic programs. Walden replied that he had already voted for $400 billion in cuts over a 10-year period during 2011 and another $500 billion was slated to be automatically cut from the Department of Defense budget if Congress and the White House failed to reach a spending reduction deal by late March.
Walden said military funding comprised 20 percent of the total national budget; down from 25 percent 30 years ago and nearly 40 percent in the 1970s. He said during the Cold War, defense had taken a 7.5 percent share of the gross domestic product — the market value of all goods and services produced — but today that share was only 4.6 percent.
"We do still have a war going on," he said. "And half of the Pentagon's budget is used for pay and benefits for those who are standing in harm's way or prepared to go."
He said America, as the last remaining superpower, provided 70 percent or more of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization's defense budget and had a responsibility to protect weaker nations.
"I'm not an isolationist; I don't think we can just pull back and say, 'The world can do without our presence,' although I don't think we can solve all of the problems either, nor should we in many cases," he said.
Walden was asked where he would weigh in on gun control measures that President Barack Obama and other key Democrats are seeking. He said gun laws had already been in place when Adam Lanza, 20, shot and killed 20 children and six staff members at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., less than one month ago.
He said the real problem was that Lanza, like other killers in mass shootings, had a history of mental health issues that had not been adequately addressed.
"I think all of us are heartbroken over what happened in Connecticut and has happened elsewhere but gun laws were already on the books that were broken," said Walden. "All of these shooters were not healthy mentally and we need to look at our service delivery system."
He said a federal ban on assault weapons was in place on April 20, 1999, when seniors Erin Harris and Dylan Klebold, both 18, shot and killed 12 students and one teacher at Columbine High School in Colorado. Another 21 students and three adults were injured trying to escape the massacre.
That ban expired in 2004 and Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., has vowed to fight for its reinstatement.
"I don't know what will come forward but I would be surprised in the House if much is done to repeal gun rights," he said of the Republican-controlled chamber.
A farmer from The Dalles told Walden that cherry growers had been told to expect the same "extortion" tactics this year that had been used by U.S. Department of Labor inspectors against blueberry farmers during the 2012 growing season. He asked what was being done to remedy the situation where perishable crops were prevented from being taken to market unless the farmer paid a large fine and back wages, almost $170,000 in one case, and signed away his rights to fight an unfair labor charge.
Walden said Oregon's Congressional delegation had yet to get a response to an Aug. 17 letter asking Labor Secretary Hilda Solis for documentation to justify the stringent penalties and apparent due process violations. He said all the affected farmers know is that an inspector determined that it was impossible for one worker to pick as much fruit as was shown in their records.
Walden said what volume can allowably be picked per day by a single employee has yet to be explained. He said it is also unknown why inspectors invoked the provision of federal law known as "hot goods" that was crafted to deal with serious infractions at garment factories around the turn of the century.
Walden said that the regulation was intended to be enacted only in cases where labor violations were "willful, egregious and/or repeated."
"It's like the nuclear option for a labor dispute," he said. "I think it's an abuse of power and we're going to do everything we can to heat it up."
Walden's stop in The Dalles was his first town hall of 2013 and he was planning to cover 571 miles during the week to hold eight more forums. He was also scheduled to visit Sherman, Gilliam, Wheeler, Grant, Umatilla, Morrow and Hood River counties.

SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) — Ask Susan Graham how she reacted when Santa Fe Opera first offered her the title role in Offenbach's "The Grand Duchess of Gerolstein."
"Do I still have the bruises?" she replies, extending her right arm in jest. "I didn't want to do it. They twisted my arm for two years!"
Eventually she gave in, and this summer she's headlining a campy new production of the 1867 operetta, which satirizes militaristic war-mongering and political corruption and depicts a royal ruler whose sex drive is in overdrive. Director Lee Blakeley has updated the setting from a fictional 18th century duchy to 20th century America and written new English-language dialogue, filled with mild double entendres (think "privates on parade").
Graham, one of America's leading mezzo-sopranos for nearly a quarter-century, has scored some of her greatest triumphs in serious roles (Dido in Berlioz's "Les Troyens," Sesto in Mozart's "La Clemenza di Tito"), but she has also done light opera, from Lehar's "The Merry Widow" to Offenbach's "La Belle Helene."
So why the reluctance to take on the duchess?
"I had the impression, falsely as it turned out, that it's for a 'woman of a certain age,' Graham recalled during an interview at her home nestled in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, a short drive from the opera house. "I was still singing Octavian (in Richard Strauss's "Der Rosenkavalier") and playing a 17-year-old boy. I wasn't ready to be the Grand Dame of Operetta."
In fact, in Offenbach's original, the duchess is a young woman, but the role has often been played by singers in their 50s. Posters for the Santa Fe production exploit the age angle with a picture of a mountain lion wearing a crown, topped by the slogan, "The Ultimate Cougar."
Graham was still in her 40s when the role was first offered, and she didn't relish the idea of playing an older woman who pursues a handsome cadet only to lose him to his young sweetheart.
"At that time I was still dating younger men," she said. "I WAS the grand duchess, and I wasn't ready to play myself on stage quite yet. Then I got into this very serious, very stable relationship with someone who's closer to my age, and I thought, OK, I feel more grown up now, I'm fine with this. And then of course by the time we're putting it on, I'm in my 50s."
She said she's happy with the result: "It's a little bit raunchy, which I love, and I get to sing some beautiful melodies in French."
Santa Fe has always been important to Graham, and it's here that her career took off. Born in Roswell, N.M., she moved to Midland, Texas, when she was 12, studied voice at Texas Tech and then went to New York at age 25 with the goal of being accepted as an apprentice at the Santa Fe Opera.
"I auditioned two years in a row, and was rejected two years in a row," she laughs.
But she did win the Metropolitan Opera's National Council Auditions in 1988 (along with future stars Renee Fleming and Ben Heppner) and the following summer got hired to sing two small roles at Santa Fe — Flora in Verdi's "La Traviata" and Annina in "Der Rosenkavalier."
The next year she was back as Dorabella in Mozart's "Cosi fan tutte" and the Composer in Strauss's "Ariadne auf Naxos." A year later came Cherubino in Mozart's "The Marriage of Figaro." She's returned periodically ever since, either to sing a leading role or perform in concert.
Meanwhile, her career took flight, with debuts at the Met and in European capitals from London to Paris to Vienna. Graham is noted for the wide range of her repertoire — from early works by Monteverdi and Handel to new operas by Tobias Picker and John Harbison — and she also is an acclaimed recitalist.
Now, about to turn 53, Graham speaks with disarming candor about the challenges of "sort of planning out the last 10 years" of her career.
"The repertoire that I'm going into is a very tricky path to walk," she said. "It took me a long time to grasp that concept, when there's much more behind you than there is in front of you."
Besides the Grand Duchess, new roles Graham is taking on include Tina in Dominick Argento's "The Aspern Papers," which she recently sang in Dallas; Prince Orlofsky in Johann Strauss's "Die Fledermaus," which she'll perform in Houston this fall; and Sycorax in the Baroque pastiche "The Enchanted Island" at the Met. In a further change of pace, she'll star as Anna in Rodgers and Hammerstein's "The King and I" in Paris next June, a production also to be directed by Blakeley.
She's also looking at supporting roles like the Countess Geschwitz in Berg's "Lulu" and Clairon in Richard Strauss's "Capriccio."
Being back at Santa Fe has brought home some of the bittersweet aspects of aging.
"This is the place of my youth," she said. "I sang here every summer, and fantastic things happened to me."
She bemoans the fact that the current crop of apprentices, who perform in the show with her, "insist on calling me 'Miss Graham.' They won't call me 'Susie,' they just won't! And they say, 'Oh, my parents got me my first recording of you when I was 10.'
"I know they're half my age, and it's weird because I used to BE them," she said. "To acknowledge where I am now is fine everywhere else in the world, but when I'm here there's this kind of disconnect. It's like running the videotape back."
"The Grand Duchess," which opened the season June 28, continues in repertory through Aug. 24, along with four other operas: Rossini's "La Donna del Lago" starring Joyce di Donato and Lawrence Brownlee; "Oscar," a new opera by Theodore Morrison based on the life of Oscar Wilde and starring countertenor David Daniels; and revivals of "The Marriage of Figaro" and "La Traviata."

We'll call the movie "Three Beaches and an Airport." It'll star Hugh Grant as a buttoned-up business traveler who is separated from his job, money and luggage at LAX, then befriended by a team of wise-cracking Olympic volleyballers who introduce him to the sun-baked, wave-splashed piers and brew pubs of L.A.'s South Bay. In no time, he soars to entrepreneurial success, leading beach-cruiser bike tours along the Strand, living in an ocean-view condo and driving a shiny convertible. The only problem is he can almost never find parking. And when he does, it's a quarter for every 12 minutes.
Oh, never mind. Forget Hugh, grab a fistful of quarters yourself and see the real South Bay. Here, as part of our Southern California Close-Ups series, are seven micro-itineraries in Redondo Beach, Hermosa Beach and Manhattan Beach, along with tips for LAX (about seven miles north) and Marina del Rey (about 12 miles north). We'll tell you what to pay for an hour on a beach cruiser (that's a bike, not a person); where to sleep by the airport; why fish and ice cream belong together in Manhattan Beach; and why Jay Leno slips away to Hermosa Beach most Sunday nights.
1. Pedal the StrandThe Strand (Genaro Molina / Los Angeles Times)
The Strand bike path covers the South Bay coast, stretching south to Palos Verdes and north to Playa del Rey, and, if you're ready to pedal around Marina del Rey, you can bicycle all the way north to Pacific Palisades. That's a 22-mile trip, with scarcely a break in the waterfront scenery, lively humanity and architectural triumphs and follies. Start by renting a bike from Hermosa Cyclery, 20 13th St., Hermosa Beach, where one-speed beach cruisers start at $7 an hour and high-end road and mountain bikes go for as much as $60 a day. Before you start burning calories, take some breakfast or lunch aboard at Good Stuff (1286 the Strand), which has a pleasant patio just a few steps away from the bike shop. Down south near the Redondo pier complex, you'll pass close by Polly's on the Pier (233 N. Harbor Drive), a breakfast-lunch joint. As you're rolling through Manhattan Beach, enjoy the greenery between the pedestrian and cycle paths. And notice how, as you go north, the houses get bigger and bolder. Once you've returned your wheels to the Cyclery, you can walk about 10 blocks up Pier Avenue to the Rockefeller (418-422 Pier Ave.), a recently opened spot for craft beer, artisan burgers, open-air dining and sports on TV.
2. Redondo's RivieraRedondo Beach Pier (Jay L. Clendenin / Los Angeles Times)
Redondo Beach has a pier and beachfront complex designed just for tourists — a place where visitors who like a rough-around-the-edges destination can stroll over the ocean, buy urchins at Quality Seafood (130 International Boardwalk), rent a paddle boat, sleep at the Portofino Hotel (260 Portofino Way), duck into the din of a dark arcade or catch a tribute band at Brixton South Bay (100 Fishermans Wharf, No. J). The grittiness and kitsch of the Redondo pier won't please everybody. For a more sophisticated scene, head south of the pier to Riviera Village, a quiet, upscale neighborhood that includes excellent beaches and ocean views along the Esplanade and a great collection of eateries (Redondo Beach Brewing Co., Dolce Vita desserts, H.T. Grill) and shops along South Catalina Avenue between Avenue D and Palos Verdes Boulevard. For a break from surf and turf, eat at the calm, vegetarian, Asian-inflected oasis known as the Green Temple (1700 S. Catalina Ave.).
3. High-style Hermosa(Genaro Molina / Los Angeles Times)
Hermosa Beach is just 1.3 square miles. But it has plenty of action, beginning with the surfers in the water, the anglers on the pier and the world-class volleyball players thumping and sprawling by the nets on the sand. To explore all this from an upscale perch, begin by booking the Beach House at Hermosa Beach (1300 the Strand), where summer rates start at $299. Stroll up a few blocks to Java Man (157 Pier Ave.), a popular neighborhood coffee spot in a converted bungalow on a handsome bend of Pier Avenue. Then go body surf or bike or stroll a little more, and break for lunch and browsing at Gum Tree (238 Pier Ave.). This is another converted bungalow, its interior split between a gift and home shop and a cafe. House-made granola? Check. Four-dollar organic peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for the kids? Check.
4. Pier, plaza, party!Hermosa Beach Pier (Genaro Molina / Los Angeles Times)
Hermosa Beach's Pier Plaza is the last little bit of street before the beach itself begins. It's also where the hard-partying 22-year-olds tend to end up. If that's your scene, the plaza is car-free, lined by palm trees and chock-full of raucous bars and restaurants. The loudest might be Baja Sharkeez (52 Pier Ave.), which burned down in 2006 and reopened in 2008. The oldest and grungiest include the Mermaid (11 Pier Ave.) and the Poop Deck (next door at 1272 the Strand). The best view probably belongs to the upstairs deck at Hennessey's Tavern (8 Pier Ave.). One of the newer spots is a shrine to surfing called Watermans (22 Pier Ave.). And on the two floors above, you'll find the 15-year-old Surf City Hostel (26 Pier Ave.). It must be as loud as a train station, and it fills its 67 beds with budget travelers who share dorm rooms and bathrooms, stash their bikes and surfboards in the hall and pay summer rates of $30 to $35 a night.
5. Jay's other jobJay Leno in his Burbank garage (Gary Friedman / Los Angeles Times)
Leno's day job pays pretty well and keeps him busy. Yet the host of "The Tonight Show" continues to moonlight like a man whose mortgage is on the line. Most Sundays, he takes the stage at the Comedy & Magic Club (1018 Hermosa Ave.) in Hermosa Beach, testing new material in a black-box space with about 250 seats. Buy a $32 ticket to the 7 p.m. show, turn up soon after 5 p.m. (when the doors open), and you stand a good chance of claiming one of the 18 seats on the lip of the small stage. You're required to order at least two items from the menu, but some beers are less than $6. And you may get some big laughs from the two or three other comedians who typically precede Leno. Chances are he'll come out about 8 p.m. and do an hour. After all these years on television, Leno gets taken for granted. So it's strange and funny to see him pacing the stage and demonstrating such wit, memory, energy and subtlety, all the while standing about as far from you as the TV is from your couch.
6. For young and oldManhattan Beach Pier (Ricardo DeAratanha / Los Angeles Times)
Yes, there are three major South Bay piers, and they're all reasonably kid-friendly. But the Manhattan Beach Pier is the one with a little aquarium at the end. The Roundhouse Marine Studies Lab and Aquarium operates inside the eight-sided Roundhouse building (built in 1922, rebuilt in 1991), and it's free (though donations of $5 a family are suggested). It's tiny, but it has just enough to quicken the pulse of a junior oceanographer — sea star touch tanks, eels and fish of various stripes, a leopard shark and more. Less than two blocks away, the Manhattan Beach Creamery (1120 Manhattan Ave.) awaits with ice cream and other sweet treats. And later, when it's time for a proper meal, there's the 11-year-old Rock'n Fish (120 Manhattan Beach Blvd.) restaurant with seafood, steaks and convivial atmosphere. Or there's the Strand House (117 Manhattan Beach Blvd.), a sleek new fine-dining place (the Zislis Group, same owner as Rock'n Fish) that opened across the street in early August. To start, the Strand House was serving only dinner, but staffers say weekend brunches are coming soon.
7. Bagels and MetloxSimmzy's Pub on Manhattan Beach Boulevard (Ricardo DeAratanha / Los Angeles Times)
Walk a few blocks up the hill from the Manhattan Beach Pier on Manhattan Beach Boulevard, pass Noah's Bagels on your right, and look left. That's Metlox, a sun-splashed semi-minimalist collection of shops and restaurants that's too genteel to call a mall. (The median household income in Manhattan Beach is more than $100,000, which makes it the wealthiest of the three beach-city neighbors.) There's sushi over here, Mediterranean food over there, plus a spa and Le Pain Quotidien bakery. And there's the Shade Hotel (1221 N. Valley Drive). It opened in 2005 (the Zislis Group again), and if you're wealthy enough to pay (it's $295 nightly in winter, $395 in summer), it's the coolest lodging in the South Bay. Its public areas are handsome and modern (except that the upstairs pool is too small for anything but a quick splash), and the guest rooms have spa jets in their two-person tubs, along with retracting screens between the bathroom and bedroom areas. If you're not quite wealthy enough — and if you're antsy about easy airport access — the Belamar Hotel (3501 Sepulveda Blvd.) might make sense. Though it has the feel of a business lodging (with boutique flourishes), it's less than two miles from the beach, connected to downtown Manhattan Beach by the Hermosa Valley Greenbelt footpath and less than four miles from LAX, with nightly rates that start around $180.
8. Hotel confidentialSheraton Gateway (Sheraton)
No leisure traveler should spend more than a single night in one of those big hotels in the soulless zone that is Century Boulevard. But if you have a late-night arrival or early-morning departure, or both, that single night can be crucial. When that time comes, remember that the big airport hotels have free LAX shuttle bus service with departures every 15 to 20 minutes and that their rates are often a lot lower on weekends, when business travel slows. Also, many of these hotels have specials offering up to a week of free parking if you book a room for just one night. Three good choices are the 802-room Starwood-affiliated Sheraton Gateway (6101 W. Century Blvd.), the 499-room Marriott-affiliated Renaissance Los Angeles Airport Hotel (9620 Airport Blvd.) and the 740-room Starwood-affiliated Westin Los Angeles Airport Hotel (5400 W. Century Blvd.). All have discounts on the weekend, when rooms drop to $130 or less; the Westin's rates sometimes drop below $100. (Weekday rates can be twice as high.) All have heated outdoor pools and club levels, and in-house restaurants serving all three meals. All three ding you for parking and Wi-Fi, adding about $40 a night unless you've grabbed one of those free-parking packages. "9"
9. In the white spiderThe Theme Building and Encounter restaurant (Genaro Molina / Los Angeles Times)
You know you've wondered exactly what's inside that spider-legged Jetsons-era Theme Building in the middle of LAX. The building and its Encounter lunch-and-dinner restaurant just came out of a three-year renovation in 2010. So maybe, if you have a couple of airport hours to kill outside the security checkpoint, it's time to explore. There's a free observation deck up top that's open on weekends from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. By day, concrete dominates the view. So wait until sunset, when takeoffs and landings show up better, and head for Encounter for a drink or a meal. You'll hear a goofball sci-fi soundtrack as you ride the elevator, and you'll find lava lamps all around. The menu (dinner entrees about $18-$29) has won the restaurant high rankings among airport eateries nationwide. But be advised that unless you drink way too much, the restaurant will not spin. It never has. (In its grooviest days before 9/11, Encounter buzzed with diners and drinkers and didn't close until 2 a.m. Nowadays, it closes at 9 or 9:30 p.m., depending on the night.) And if none of this quite satisfies your plane-craziness, just a few blocks away, close by a busy runway, awaits the Proud Bird (11022 Aviation Blvd.), a restaurant that since 1962 has been fixated on the fun of flight. Not only do its window tables and patio offer prime views of landing jets, but its backyard is also decorated with more than a dozen historic planes.
10. To float your boatMarina del Rey (Mel Melcon / Los Angeles Times)
Just 10 miles north of Manhattan Beach and right next to Venice, Marina del Rey is an 800-acre sailors' haven — a man-made lagoon with six hotels, six yacht clubs and about two dozen marinas and anchorages along its shores. Take a toddler to Mother's Beach near Admiralty and Palawan ways. Take a picnic to Burton W. Chace Park (a grassy knoll surrounded on three sides by water and boats). Rent just about any kind of watercraft you can imagine or sign onto a harbor cruise (www.visitmarinadelrey.com). Or, if it's a Wednesday from mid-April through early September, grab a sweater, take a patio seat at Shanghai Red's (13813 Fiji Way) and order a happy hour drink and snack (4 to 7 p.m.). Then lean back and watch sailboats by the score as they head out to open water for the California Yacht Club's weekly Sunset Series regatta (beginning at 5:55 p.m. Wednesdays). The boats head back in again as the sun sets. By the way, don't expect Chinese food at Shanghai Red's. It's been a surf-and-turf standby, with room for about 200 on that patio, for more than 40 years.

Friendly EPERM
Coordinated patches to kernel and glibc so that (optionally) strerror(EPERM) gives useful information on why permission was denied
- Name: Dave Malcolm
- Email: <email@example.com>
Current status
- Targeted release: [[Releases/<number> | Fedora <number> ]]
- Last updated: (DATE)
- Percentage of completion: XX%
Detailed Description
Traditionally, if a process attempts a forbidded operation, errno for that thread is set to EPERM, and a call to strerror() returns a localized version of "Operation not permitted". This string appears throughout textual UIs. For example, it will show up in command-line tools, in exceptions within scripting languages, etc.
There are an increasing number of ways in which you can fail to have permission to do something:
- classic POSIX discretionary access controls
- Linux security modules (e.g. SELinux mandatory access controls)
- capabilities
- etc (TODO: expand this list)
Under normal deployment situations we don't want to leak information to an attacker as to why permission was denied, but under development situations it's useful to know why a failure happens.
We propose to:
- patch the kernel so that it can optionally provide user-space with a "failure cookie" giving additional information beyond the bare ERRNO (handled at the per-thread level, like strerror, iirc)
- patch glibc's implementation of strerror (and related calls) so that it can use this "failure cookie" to provide a localized extension to the "Operation not permitted" giving additional details.
For example: TODO
The failure cookie would only be exposed to user space for processes with a particular bit set (using prctl), so that you have to opt-in to having this information exposed.
Benefit to Fedora
This feature should significantly simplify debugging permissions issues in Fedora. For example, rather than seeing "Operation not permitted" error and e.g. blindly trying to disable SELinux, a user can see directly whether or not SELinux was involved.
This would require getting a new user-space interface into the kernel, with corresponding changes to the insides of glibc. The precise mechanism has not been decided yet - presumably whatever is acceptable to the upstream kernel/glibc maintainers.

Electrical Code
Requirements (Conduit
Housing Style Models
· Readily Adaptable Air
· Positive Air Seal
· Can Be Used in Smoke
Control Applications
The V-2410 Three-Way
Multipurpose Solenoid Air Valve
is designed for use in
applications where the operation
of a pneumatic device is
dependent upon an electrical
circuit. The V-2410 diverts the
air signal to the pneumatic
device(s) when the coil is
energized or de-energized,
depending on the choice of air
connections used (N.O.
Normally Open, N.C. Normally
Closed, and COM. Common).
In a typical V-2410 application,
supply air is connected to the
N.C. port, the control device is
connected to the COM. port, and
the N.O. port is left vented.
When the solenoid is energized,
a magnetic field activates a
plunger-type valve stem, the
N.C. port opens, and supply air
is directed through the COM.
port to the control device. then
the solenoid is de-energized,the supply air connection is
closed and the N.O. port
exhausts air from the control
device. Reversed signals may
be obtained by connecting the
supply air to the N.O. port, using
the N.C. port for exhaust.

Compiled FTGL for Chromium. How to static build?
I`m compiling Chromium into a mount dir., so I compiled FTGL files there in /lib.
The FTGL files are to go in the Chromium package. FTGL build has no *.a files.
I thought to add ( MntPt )/lib path to LD_LIBRARY_PATH so Chromium build would find it.
Seemed best for it to be where it will be used in the final build.
But when I run configure it says:
configure: error: cannot find GLC or FTGL >= 2.1.3 (text renderer)
Where do I put it to have it in the build? What to do to point configure to it?

Hi again Karl Godt; Some more clarification if possible...
-L will make the compiled app. look for the lib. that is in the make install dir.
So it should work okay as the lib is already in the dir. the app. is to be in.
Does -I make the lib get copied ( included ) into the target dir. at make install?
So it can be anywhere as it`s copied to the correct dir. in the build target dir.?
And then it essentially does what -L does to make the app. find the lib. there.
Or does it do something else? It seems like this is more what I`m trying to do.
Looked at the files in /usr/lib/pkgconfig, please explain:
LDFLAGS and CFLAGS are written into these ( files in /pkgconfig )..
Do I make a blank file for the FLAGS to be written to?
Or are these files in the source pkgs.?
Will they have to be modified by me to point to the correct places?

Karl Godt; I`m looking at your links, starting to get a picture. here.
It seems odd to keep build info in the O.S. ( /pkfconfig ), but it`s normal for Unixes I guess.
Can`t see that it would ever need to be referenced for anything.

I am running full 99% of the time . have no interest to screw anything .
Tried to build a lot of xorg drivers once on a separate partition .
Was ok having all includes and libs on the OS .
Building chromium OS of 1.2 GB is beyond my current skills i guess .
What i don't understand : do you want FTGL built statically or chromium ?

I guess I should have said that it`s Chromium the game, not the O.S.
Sorry about that...
If I could impose on you a little Karl, I`m a total noob at compiling.
I`m still trying to get an idea of the big picture.
I want to make "relatively" self contained apps. in Squash files.
Much like Tiny Core Linux`s SCM files.
technosaurus has been helping a lot. But compiling is still not working.
I have a bunch of Qs here:
### The main Qs on my mind:
# Using precompiled binary libs. doesn`t seem to work much of the time.
__ Is there a trick to using binary libs.?
# The best setup for making self contained SqApps seems to be:
Have a dir. with lots of libs. ( compiled or binary ) for building packages.
Copy needed libs. to /(PathToInstallDir)/lib
LDFLAGS=-L/(PathToInstallDir)/lib ; configure --prefix /(PathToInstallDir)
LDFLAGS should point configure to the libs. copied to the install dir.
--prefix makes sure they`re found in the final package when the app. is run.
The install dir. is then made into a Squash file.
### Does this sound like a good setup? Or am I wrong about this?
All help is appreciated. Thank you very much... Terry B.

Con you post a link to chromium the game, Terry ?
about the flags :
FLAGS=$FLAGS;export FLAGS;./configure
if you use semicolons.
FLAGS=$FLAGS ./configure
./configure FLAGS=$FLAGS
about the prefix :
if you want a standalone like
with all the external included libs included in the /opt/chromium-directory ,
then i have to say, that i did not try to built such combination before .
Probably i would compile FTGL also with
and all others too,
# make install them,
and build
chromium with
./configure LDFLAGS="-L/opt/chromium-version/lib -L/opt/chromium-version/usr/lib -L/opt/chromium-version/usr/local/lib" CFLAGS="-I/opt/chromium-version/usr/include" --prefix=/opt/chromium-version
make install

Thank you so much for the complete code example. It helps a lot !
Chromium`s one of the dumb little game I got to develop SqApp build methods.
I don`t know if it`s really worth your time, it`s an arcade 2D space shooter.
I got a number of games from there, some I`d really like to make work.
Some are Win. games in the Linux section, I assume they`re run by Wine.
I`ve tried Wine but never had much luck with it, once it trashed my partition.
# The SqApp setup I have mounts Squash files on: /SqApp/mnt/(PkgName)
The SqApp files have run scrips in them to mount & run, then unmount.
A setup script copies the run scripts to /SqApp/bin and icons to /SqApp/ico
and makes a few types of menu files. I made a stand alone menu in BaCon.
### If I could ask a few more Qs:
# Is there a trick to using binary libs.?
I`m using Puppy Lucid, so then using Ubuntu Lucid libs. is a good idea?
I guess Woof is supposed to be Ubuntu app. compatible, maybe it`s better.
# Are libs. and apps. built on glibc, musl, uclibc, etc, incompatible with libs.
and apps. built on any of the other Clibs? It could be a portability problem.
# A Q is... What to include in the build? X, xOrg stays out, but GTK+ has
new versions often, and many libs. have many versions ( lib. conflicts ).
OpenGL and Mesa ( games ) are both big I think, so they`re shared.
Obviously versions of apps. and libs. are sets, and any upgrade is global.
# I need really need complete tree files for the common apps... A BIG help.

Yep this chromium is something else .
only 1.6MB src ..
but :
configure: error: cannot find OpenAL & ALUT or SDL Mixer (sound)
hmmmm ... will have a look for these ...
About wine : i managed to install wine by copying wine from
lighthousepup-443 to lupu-511
but it was a little struggle to find everything and to get the $HOME/.wine directory right .
About Ubuntu libs : I can not complain until now ..
libxml-2.6.32 from debian was missing a function - fopen64 or so - needed by rox

Yes, It`s a real grab bag of lib. goodies.
I`m trying to do sdl-ball and lbreakout, and neither of them will work also.
Interestingly I`ve gone to using Ubuntu Lucid binaries as I`m using Puppy Lucid.
And they have the same errors as the games I`ve compiled. I guess that`s good.
# Lbreakout error: error while loading shared libraries:
: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
# But here: echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
# And here`s the dir.: ls /root/my-applications/lib
libmikmod.so.2 libSDL_image-1.2.so.0.8.2 libSDL_ttf-2.0.so.0.6.3
libmikmod.so.2.0.4 libSDL_image-1.2.so.0.8.2_Deb libsmpeg-0.4.so.0
libSDL-1.2.so.0.11.3 libSDL_mixer-1.2.so.0.2.6 libx264.so
libSDL_image-1.2.so.0 libSDL_ttf-2.0.so.0 libx264.so.65
### Notice of course that:: libSDL_mixer-1.2.so.0 is in the path.
So what the heck is going on here? I doubting the reliability of all of this.
Does ld.so.cache
to be run? Does $LD_LIBRARY_PATH work or not?
Tiny Core linux doesn`t use $LD_LIBRARY_PATH, you`re not supposed to use it.
But they do use $LD_LIBRARY_PATH to make their SCM files find the libs.

I think it will take more than LD_LIBRARY_PATH for many apps that require libs and other support files to be in particular locations. I'm assuming that you rebooted, ran ldconfig, etc. Are all the pkgconfig files correct?

Thanks jpeps; I ran ldconfig and it fixed it.
I`ve got links for /usr/share/games and /var/games
Now it says:
ALSA lib confmisc.c:674:(snd_determine_driver) could not open control for card 0
ALSA lib conf.c:3326:(snd_config_hooks_call) function snd_config_hook_load_for_all_cards returned error: Input/output error
There`s a short list of these and then errors for sounds it can`t play of course.
As I see it, I have all the critical dirs. linked, so I`m stumped once again.
I think this Lbreakout game is very close to running the way I`ve got it rigged.
Forcing an app. to find it`s parts is tricky. Too bad they`re made this way.
Using binary libs. will work I think. Again, tricks to get the app. to use them.

Seems you run frugal and did too much alsaconf, which unloads the sound modules and loads them new .
Unloading often makes the kernel drivers do a mv or rm command to remove the /dev/snd* nodes, which can leave hidden "*.wh.*" files from the aufs driver in /dev or /dev/snd directory .
find /initrd/pup_rw -name "*.wh.*" -delete
should delete at least the .wh. files ( not the .wh. dirs )
Another thing is in my observations, that the sound drivers mainly create nodes in /dev directory directly, some apps still might try to find them in /dev/snd directory .
I have altered my /etc/init.d/alsa to create them in both :
D=`find /sys -type d -name "*sound*"`
for i in $D ; do
DEV=`find $i -type f -name "dev" -exec echo -n {}@ \; -exec cat {} \; | tr ':' '@' | tr ' ' '@' -exec echo \; `
POOL=`echo $POOL | rev`
for i in $POOL ; do
NODE=`echo $i | cut -f 3 -d '@'`
NODE=`echo $NODE | rev`
NODE=`basename $(dirname $(echo $NODE) )`
MAJ=`echo $i | cut -f 2 -d '@'`
MAJ=`echo $MAJ | rev`
Min=`echo $i | cut -f 1 -d '@'`
Min=`echo $Min| rev`
echo "$NODE" "$MAJ" "$Min"
rm /dev/$NODE ### 2>/dev/null
mknod /dev/$NODE c $MAJ $Min
rm /dev/snd/$NODE ### 2>/dev/null
mknod /dev/snd/$NODE c $MAJ $Min

Londonderry classrooms flooded
By APRIL GUILMET
Union Leader Correspondent
The main hallway at Londonderry North Elementary School was off-limits Monday afternoon after a damaged roof membrane led to seven water-logged classrooms. (APRIL GUILMET)
Spring roads make the going tough
LONDONDERRY — A 75-foot roof membrane split over the weekend, allowing rain to pour into Londonderry North Elementary and soak seven classrooms Monday morning.
Principal Mary Coltin said she was called to the school shortly after dawn, when custodians alerted her to the damage. By the time Coltin got to school, water had filled one of the main hallways and spread into five first-grade classrooms and two second-grade classrooms.
"I could have taken my kayak down that hall," Coltin said.
The roof membrane on the school was easily repaired, she said, but it's going to take at least several days to dry out the soggy classrooms.
"I opened the door this morning and all I could hear was water flowing," school custodian Kevin St. Laurent said.
A section of Route 28 near Mammoth Road, just around the corner from the elementary school, was closed on account of flooding Monday afternoon, with police rerouting traffic around the nearby Mobile gas station.
Inside the school, about a dozen plastic buckets and bins were set up along a corridor to catch drips, with fans spread about to dry out the classroom carpets.
Ceiling panels in the classrooms and hallways were taken down to allow the water to drip out.
"It's an unusual situation," St. Laurent said. "This isn't something that we'd expected to happen. The membrane just let go."
Teacher Kristy Cardin's second-grade classroom suffered the worst damage; water soaked her computer, desk, personal belongings and students' assignments.
Coltin said it's unclear at this time what can be salvaged and what will need to be replaced.
In the meantime, some of the first-grade classes will receive their lessons in the music room; other first-grade classes will use a section of the library.
Second-graders were moved temporarily into a special education room and the art room.
The school's Images of Greatness event, an open house at which students dress as historical characters, had been scheduled for Monday night but was postponed until next week.
Staff and students pulled together to cope with the flooding, Coltin said.
"We had custodians from all over the district come here to help today," she said. "It's not the end of the world and things can be replaced. Fortunately, no one was hurt."
School officials are hoping the children can return to their regular classrooms toward the end of the week.
Once the water stops dripping and the carpets are fully dried, custodians will shampoo them with an anti-microbial soap to make sure mildew doesn't set in, St. Laurent said.
While a recently approved school repair bond is addressing failing roofs in several of the district's schools, North School officials noted their roof hadn't previously experienced any major problems.
"Every now and then we'll get a little leak in the ceiling," Coltin said. "But this was certainly unexpected."

I've had some questions that have been bugging me for years. As a child, I always had a strong spiritual connection. My father saw it and my mother refused to acknowledge it. My dad believes it has to do with the fact that my birth was predicted. He's a strong believer in the supernatural and one night convinced my mother to use a ouija board with him. When they got into the questions the spirit took over the session and started telling them things. I guess they said that they would have a female born on February 27, 1993 and it would be their only daughter. My mom wasn't even pregnant with my brother yet (I have a younger and an older) and she was told she could never have children. She was freaked out and they stopped playing. I wasn't even supposed to be born until the middle of March, but then I came early, at the exact time and day the spirit claimed.
I've had strange things happen around me my whole life, but I know that's just because I'm more sensitive than most people. But I've never heard of somebody's birth being predicted by a ouija board. Does anybody have insight into this? Or has this happened to other people?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Has anybody ever heard of this before?

I don't use Ouija boards, but I've had predictions through other forms of divination. Nothing as specific as a date, but general timelines. "in a week", "by the end of the month" which to some may seem too general to be thought of as predictions, but the things predicted were very specific, just not the times.

I think that sometimes people take certain things too seriously, like if something talked about destruction in the next 100 years but wasn't very specific, obviously anyone could say that and call it a "prediction." But I think if it's detailed then there's most likely something to it. I'm just wondering what kind of 'spirit' my parents would've been talking to. If it was a person I wonder if it could possibly be from the future, since ghosts aren't exactly stuck in their time. I'm just not sure how to take that occurrence, should I wonder if it's something malicious?
Posted 07 October 2012 - 09:06 PM
From my experience, time exists on the astral plane, it just follows some slightly different laws, I don't think it would be someone/something from the future, but more likely something with an ability to see down possible timelines. I've never heard of a 'ghost' that could do this, so it may have been some other kind of spirit. I don't see why it would be taken as malicious. If nothing explicitly malicious was said, or happened, then I wouldn't worry about it.

It's been five years since Wes Anderson's last live action film (we'll forgive him the delightful animated detour that was The Fantastic Mr. Fox). This May, he's back in theaters with Moonrise Kingdom, starring Bruce Willis, Edward Norton, Tilda Swinton, Jason Schwartzman, and of course, Bill Murray. In true Wes Anderson fashion, the film's summary barely seems to summarize the proceedings:
Set on an island off the coast of New England in the 1960s, Moonrise Kingdom follows a young boy and girl falling in love. When they are moved to run away together, various factions of the town mobilize to search for them and the town is turned upside down – which might not be such a bad thing.
To gear up for the May release, we have the first look at one of the film's seven animated character posters. Click on the file below and then click around on the poster to reveal even more:

Stay tuned to IGN.com in the coming weeks for even more on Wes Anderson's latest film.

CLEMSON — Tyler Slaton had to excuse himself from a group project one recent afternoon and some of his Clemson classmates wanted to know why.
"I kind of play baseball," the sophomore left fielder softly explained.
The low-brow looks of disbelief were contagious.
"I guess I don't look like a typical athlete," Slaton said. "I'm not the tallest guy. I'm not the biggest guy."
Not that Slaton is too little for a big role in a big-time baseball program.
But he needs a boost to look eye-to-eye with Thomas Brittle, the Tigers' 5-8 senior center fielder from Cross.
No problem. At 5-7, Slaton is tall enough to lead No. 18 Clemson in hitting at .310. At 200 pounds, he's strong enough to personify the Tigers' transformation this season from a suspect rebuilding project into a team capable of hosting an NCAA tournament regional.
"Today was a tough one, obviously," Slaton said Saturday after a 7-2 loss in the first game of a home series against a Maryland team that wore bright yellow jerseys. "But all in all we've been playing pretty good baseball lately."
Attacking the baseball with a hit-to-all-fields approach got Slaton in the leadoff role, a sizzling ascent for an unproven player on the brink of extended bench time earlier this season. Slaton hit .189 as a freshman and struck out more than he walked (17/12).
Clumsily, he opened this season in a 1-for-15 slump.
"Honestly, I just had to relax when I got my opportunity," Slaton said. "I had been putting too much pressure on myself and was trying to do too much. I focused on putting the ball in play and trying to beat it out."
Slaton is a versatile athlete with a sports bloodline. He lettered four times in football as a running back at North Forsyth High School in Cumming, Ga. His grandfather Paul played football at Florida State, his father Mike played football at Troy and his uncle Steve wrestled at Gardner-Webb.
The Slaton skill set also includes speed (6 for 8 in stolen base attempts) and defense (head coach Jack Leggett says Slaton is a "difference-maker" in left field).
He went 8 for 12 in Clemson's three-game sweep at Boston College, had a four-hit game against Georgia and a three-hit game at No. 1 North Carolina.
Consistency, however, is a fickle ally with NCAA tournament privileges at stake.
Slaton has gone hitless in four of Clemson's last seven games.
"He's had a good season and we wouldn't have recruited him if we didn't think he could play well," Leggett said. "We just need him to come on at the end here. He's fighting himself a little bit."
Expect Slaton to get some good advice from Brittle, a Berkley High School graduate.
"Thomas has been there for me this year," Slaton said. "We're kind of the same type of player. We don't put too much juice on the ball, though he does more than I do. We're little, speedy guys. When I was down, Thomas was always there for me."
If Slaton continues to hit .300, those group project classmates will come around, too.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Acting CIA Director Michael Morell is holding meetings on Capitol Hill to explain the CIA's take on events that led David Petraeus to resign last week after acknowledging an affair.
Congressional aides say he met with Senate Intelligence Chairman Dianne Feinstein and the committee's senior Republican, Sen. Saxby Chambliss, on Tuesday and will meet the heads of the House Intelligence Committee on Wednesday. FBI Deputy Director Sean Joyce is also scheduled to brief members Wednesday.
Lawmakers are concerned whether Petraeus biographer Paula Broadwell had unauthorized access to classified information.
The aides spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to confirm the sensitive meetings publicly.
