About the Data
The compensation data above are collected annually by the American Association of University Professors. Participation in the AAUP survey is optional; 1,022 institutions submitted data for the 2017-18 academic year.
The salary and compensation data cover instructional and research staff members who work full time and whose primary role (more than 50 percent) is instruction, regardless of their official faculty status. The calculations exclude part-time faculty members, medical school faculty members, professors at military institutions who are compensated on a military pay scale, those with faculty status who are primarily administrative officers, and graduate teaching assistants. Some institutions include data for professional school faculty members.
Salary figures exclude summer teaching, stipends and other non-contracted forms of remuneration. When instructors are compensated for 11 or 12 months' work, their salaries are adjusted to a nine-month academic-year basis. Salary figures are rounded to the nearest $100.
The compensation figure for a faculty member includes an institution's contribution to benefits as well as salary; it does not include faculty contributions. The counted benefits include retirement contributions, medical insurance, disability income protection, tuition for faculty dependents, Social Security, unemployment insurance, group life insurance, workers' compensation insurance, and other benefits with cash value such as moving expenses and housing allowances.
"Salary Equity" refers to the ratio between the average salary for women by rank divided by the average men's salary, times 100. For example, if an institution had an average woman's salary for an assistant professor of $100,000 and an average man's salary for an assistant professor of $100,000, the gender equity ratio would be at 100.0, or parity. A ratio below 100 indicates the cents on the dollar of an average woman's salary below a man's average salary at that rank, and a ratio above 100 indicates the average woman's salary above a man's average salary at that rank.

Hersha founder files federal lawsuit over Hilton Harrisburg sale
The founder of Hersha Hospitality Trust has filed a federal lawsuit claiming the Hilton Harrisburg sale in June to Colorado-based Greenwood Hospitality Group was fixed.
In the filing with the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania, Hasu Shah alleges that Bill Kohl, the president and CEO of Harrisburg Hotel Corp. and current Greenwood partner, used his position to keep the Hilton off the market.
He wants U.S. Middle District Judge Christopher Conner to void the sale or award him unspecified damages.
Harrisburg Hotel Corp., the hospitality affiliate of Harristown Enterprises Inc., was acquired by Greenwood.
The deal included the sale and management of the 341-room Hilton, a catalyst of downtown revitalization in the capital city, as well as the Bricco restaurant and management of the Hilton Garden Inn Hershey. It was for $22.2 million.
Shah said he was promised a chance to bid on the hotel should it ever go on the market. He had several meetings with Russ Ford, Harristown's president and CEO, in 2009 and 2010.
Shah said he was assured the process would be open, given Harristown's charitable purpose and legal duties to "promote community participation in important projects in Harrisburg's central business district."
Instead, the nonprofit corporation failed to provide any public notice or offering regarding the Hilton, the suit says, calling it a "conspiracy" and a "sweetheart deal." Kohl had an ownership and/or controlling interest in the Hilton both before and after the sale to Greenwood.
Shah said he spoke with Thomas Conran, a Greenwood principal, last month at a charity event in Harrisburg. It was there that he learned that Conran and Kohl had a previous relationship in connection with a prior investment, and that Greenwood offered Kohl a partnership stake in exchange for assistance in the Hilton acquisition.
"Mr. Kohl and Greenwood knew that the Harrisburg Hilton would sell for more if the Harrisburg Hilton were placed on the open market," the suit states.
Shah states in the suit that Ford had a fiduciary duty to act in good faith and to maximize the sale price of the Hilton. The sale price was the "floor" price, Shah said, because it merely satisfied existing loans on the hotel, which opened in 1990.
The Hilton was sold at a below-market value, which artificially depressed nearby property values, he added. Harrisburg and its residents also were harmed by the loss of additional tax revenue and/or sale proceeds, Shah claims.
Harristown officials were not immediately available for comment on the allegations. Kohl said this afternoon that he had not yet been served with papers regarding the suit. He declined comment.
The buyer has promised about $5 million in upgrades at the Hilton.

HowTo Build Your Own Custom Kernel
- 1 Two Ways to Compile a Kernel
- 2 Cross-compiling a Kernel
- 3 Compiling a Native Kernel
- 4 Links
Two Ways to Compile a Kernel
There are two ways to build a custom kernel for the LinkStation/Kurobox. If you have access to an i686 host running some flavor of Linux, you can cross-compile a kernel for ARM9 on an i686 host. Alternatively, if your NAS has enough RAM, you could compile the kernel on the NAS itself, using the system's native gcc. Both ways of these approaches to building a custom kernel are described in the instructions that follow.
Cross-compiling a Kernel
Download All the Required Tarballs
To use the cross toolchain to compile a kernel for ARM9, you'll need access to an i686 host running some flavor of Linux. First, download the cross toolchain (arm-2005q3-2-arm-none-linux-gnueabi-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2), mkimage, and the source archive (linux-2.6.12_lsp.1.7.8.tgz):
$ cd /some_directory $ wget -H -c http://downloads.nas-central.org/LSPro_ARM9/DevelopmentTools/CrossToolchains/CodeSourcery/arm-2005q3-2-arm-none-linux-gnueabi-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2 $ wget -H -c http://downloads.nas-central.org/LSPro_ARM9/DevelopmentTools/CrossToolchains/mkimage $ wget -H -c http://downloads.nas-central.org/LSPro_ARM9/GPL/gpl_ls-gl/linux-2.6.12_lsp.1.7.8.tgz
If the files were not at the locations indicated above, fear not! Just look in every directory on the server (like I did).
Prepare the Environment
Then, install (i.e., untar) the toolchain and mkimage:
$ cd /some_path $ tar -xjf /some_directory/arm-2005q3-2-arm-none-linux-gnueabi-i686-pc-linux-gnu.tar.bz2 $ cd bin $ export PATH=`pwd`:$PATH $ cp -p /some_directory/mkimage . $ chmod a+rx mkimage
Strictly speaking mkimage should not go into /some_path/bin. But, hey...
Now untar the source of the kernel in some directory:
$ cd /some_directory $ tar -xzf linux-2.6.12_lsp.1.7.8.tgz $ cd linux-2.6.12_lsp.1.7.8
Ready, Get Set, Build!
In some_directory you can find the configs Buffalo used to build the kernels shipped with their various firmwares:
$ ls buffalo/
and choose one to use as a template for yours.
$ cp buffalo/buffalo_lsgl_arm_110.config .config
Then you can modify the configuration as you want:
$ make menuconfig
and start up the build!
$ make uImage
If you selected some features to be built as modules, they need to be prepared too.
$ make modules
The kernel and modules will be ready at arch/arm/boot/uImage.
Compiling a Native Kernel
Software and Source Code Requirements
If the distribution you have installed on your NAS has gcc, and enough RAM to compile a kernel, you should be able to build a custom kernel directly on the box itself. To do this, you will need gcc, a utility called mkimage, and the Buffalo kernel sources for your device. Those using GenLink will already have sys-devel/gcc on their system. mkimage is part of the dev-embedded/u-boot-tools package:
emerge --getbinpkg --usepkg dev-embedded/u-boot-tools
If you're running a different distribution, you should use the commands appropriate to your distribution to install gcc and u-boot-tools.
In case you're wondering, mkimage is a utility used to create kernel and/or initrd images for use with u-boot. u-boot is the standard bootloader used on the LS. The mkimage utility is run by the Makefile during the kernel build process, and is needed to package the kernel so it can later be loaded by u-boot.
The Buffalo kernel sources for your NAS should be available on the Buffalo Source Code Download page. Just look for the model device that you have, follow the link for the firmware version you want, look for a package name starting with "linux-", and download it.
For example, if you have a LS-CL, you would surf to this page and download linux-2.6.22_lsp.3.0.5.tar.bz2.
Of course, that's only an example. Download the source package that matches your device.
Unpack and Fix Sources
Once you have the kernel sources, you should unpack them somewhere convenient. For the sake of example, we'll use /usr/src/linux.
cd /usr/src tar -xvjf /wherever/i/downloaded/linux-2.6.22_lsp.3.0.5.tar.bz2 ln -s linux-2.6.22_lsp.3.0.5 linux
(That ln -s is optional, of course, and just for convenience.)
Now that you've unpacked the source, a small change needs to be made to the main Makefile. Since the Makefile was written for cross-compilation, you need to comment out some lines and uncomment others:
#ARCH ?= $(SUBARCH) CROSS_COMPILE ?= ARCH ?= arm #CROSS_COMPILE=arm-none-linux-gnueabi-
There's also a small bug in arch/arm/mach-feroceon/Board/boardEnv/mv88F5182BoardEnv.c that you'll want to fix:
//#if 0 #ifdef CONFIG_BUFFALO_LINKSTATION_LSGL
(Why did they put #if 0 in there? Who knows? Just comment it out.)
You also have to swap two pairs of lines in block/ll_rw_blk.c, so that it ends up looking like this:
if (!uptodate) { if (blk_fs_request(req) && !(req->cmd_flags & REQ_QUIET)) printk("end_request: I/O error, dev %s, sector %llu\n", req->rq_disk ? req->rq_disk->disk_name : "?", (unsigned long long)req->sector); if(req->rq_disk){ #ifdef CONFIG_BUFFALO_ERRCNT if(atomic_inc_return(&req->rq_disk->nr_errs) < 0) atomic_set(&req->rq_disk->nr_errs, INT_MAX); #endif /* CONFIG_BUFFALO_ERRCNT */ #ifdef CONFIG_BUFFALO_PLATFORM // end_request: I/O error, dev sda, sector 16 { //char str[32]; //sprintf(str,"%02x:%02x",req->rq_disk->major,req->rq_disk->minors); kernevnt_IOErr(req->rq_disk->disk_name /*str*/, (rq_data_dir(req)==WRITE)? "WRITE":"READ", req->sector, ++req->rq_disk->io_errors); } #endif } }
(Why does Buffalo publish incomplete, broken, code? I don't know. They're technically required by the GPL to publish source for their modifications, yet the code released clearly isn't the complete code they used to build their kernels. Is this a violation of the GPL? I'll give you a chance to compile their code, and let you decide for yourself...)
Peek at the LspReadme.txt
In the top level directory of the kernel source, there should be a file LspReadme.txt. This file contains all sorts of great information about the Buffalo kernel. You may want to look through it before you configure your kernel.
Configuring the Kernel
Next, you'll want to pre-configure the kernel with the default .config for your NAS. Assuming you have an LS-GL or LS-CL, which are based on the mv88f5182 chip:
cd /usr/src/linux make mv88f5182_defconfig
That will copy the default Buffalo config file (arch/arm/configs/mv88f5182_defconfig) to .config.
Now, you have to configure the kernel.
make menuconfig
For some reason, the default .config has CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD and CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM disabled, and CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED and CONFIG_LEGACY_PTYS enabled. So, poke around for those options and change them. When you're done, somewhere in your .config file, you should have each of these lines:
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD=y CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM=y # CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED is not set # CONFIG_LEGACY_PTYS is not set
The default .config also comes with a large number of Buffalo configuration variables unset. The kernel will probably compile if you use these settings:
CONFIG_BUFFALO_PLATFORM=y CONFIG_BUFFALO_SOFT_BOARDID=y CONFIG_USE_RS5C372=y CONFIG_BUFFALO_USE_INTERRUPT_DRIVER=y CONFIG_BUFFALO_USE_GPIO_DRIVER=y CONFIG_BUFFALO_SUPPORT_BOARD_INFO=y
(In fact, using those was the only way I could get the kernel to compile. Finding this combination took some trial and error, because the Buffalo Kconfig files don't contain proper dependency information for these config variables.)
The default .config also has an incorrect value for CONFIG_MV_ETH_NAME. CONFIG_MV_ETH_NAME should be set as follows:
The default value for this variable ("egiga") makes the first ethernet device on the LS appear as egiga0. Since most alternative distributions and initrds assume that the first ethernet device is eth0, your NAS probably won't be accessible from the network unless you change this to eth (note: that's eth, without no 0).
You may also want to set a "local version" for your kernel:
Compiling the Kernel and Modules
Now, compile the kernel:
make uImage
And, if you configured any code to load as modules, build the modules:
make modules make modules_install
The kernel should now be ready at arch/arm/boot/uImage, and the modules should be under binaries/lib/modules. As always, make sure to keep backup copies of your existing kernel and modules before you replace them with new ones.
These instructions for native compilation of a custom kernel have been tested and verified to work with the linux-2.6.22_lsp.3.0.5.tar.bz2 Buffalo sources on a LS-CL running GenLink. The resulting kernel compiles, boots, and runs quite nicely on the box. These instructions should work equally well for the

I would add a fourth person to Spurgeon's list. It is that Christian leader who turns the gospel of Jesus Christ into a gender gospel. Last week Tim Challies, pastor of Grace Fellowship Church, wrote a blog entitled Men, Women and the Public Reading of Scripture where he defended his view that only men, and never women, can read Scripture in front of men. Challies' view on this matter is based on what he calls the simple reading of I Timothy 2:11-12. Challies writes:
"It is my conviction that these words (i.e. "I do not permit a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man" I Tim. 2:11) are meant to be read and understood in the simplest sense. Speaking with God's authority, Paul is saying that women are not to exercise teaching authority over men. In other words, it is men who are charged with authority in the church and the most important component of this authority is to declare the words of God. Men have been called to exercise headship in the home and in the church while women are called to different and complementary functions."
I am accustomed to reading such nonsensical and isolated interpretations of I Timothy 2:11-12 from fellow Bible-believing pastors and theologians and I disagree sharply with them. However, I have not written much on the gender issue in recent months, believing as I do that the ungodly emphasis on gender distinctions within the church is destined to fail by virtue of the fact it is so anti-biblical and ultimately anti-Christian. But there was a comment in Challies' blog that caused me to flinch and placed in me a desire to write this post. A man in Challies' comment section wrote: God's design is for men to serve and women to receive. The commentor has summed up quite nicely the teaching of the false gospel that has infected some Bible-believing churches and seminaries. A reader of Dee Parson's and Wanda Martin's Wartburg Watch blog has begun calling it "the gender gospel."
Even though I may be dangerously close to violating the biblical precept 'answer not a fool in his folly," I feel a rebuttal to Challies' position is needed because there may be few naive and biblically unknowledgeable Christians who believe the teaching that "men are to serve, teach, lead, and women are to receive, listen and follow" is really from God. Nothing could be further from God's eternal truth.
The Absurdity of Promoting a Gender Gospel
The New Testament covenant of God's grace through faith in Jesus Christ totally turns the world's concept of authority on its ear. The world is concerned about position, power, authority, prestige, control, and ruling over others. Jesus Christ teaches His followers to serve, to love, to express their spiritual gifts to their fullest for the good of others, and to never fear what any person in so-called "authority" can do to them because "All authority ... has been given to Me" (Matthew 28:20). There is to be a mutual equality, respect, and submission within the home between husband and wife (Ephesians 5:21-33). There is to be a mutual equality, respect and submission of men and women toward one another in the body of Christ based upon the gifts that the Spirit gives to each male and female believer who has been baptized into Christ (Acts 2:15-21; Galatians 3:28). References to the churches' teaching ministry and other gifts are found in Romans 12, I Corinthians 12, and Ephesians 4 and not one of those passages excludes females from being recepients of any one of those gifts. Let me say that again in a different way. The gifts of the Spirit are never differentiated on the basis of gender in the New Testament -- ever.
But What About Paul's Teaching in I Timothy 2:11-12?
One of the advantages of being the pastor of a New Testament church where the Word of God is respected, believed, and practiced is that both men and women lead, serve, teach, and shepherd based upon their gifts. The concept of some raw position of power in "elders" is foreign to the New Testament. The word elder means "older." Look to your elders for wisdom. The notion of some raw authority in any office of pastor or elder is foreign to the New Testament. Every believer in Christ is a priest. There is no need for any other mediator other than Christ. Our church has a Leadership Team composed of both men and women. I am called the Lead Pastor. There is, however, no inherent authority in me. I serve people. I love people. I lead people only if they are willing to follow--and frankly, if I do a poor job of serving and loving, they ought not follow. One of these days the church of Jesus Christ is going to wake up to the fact that we have so twisted and corrupted the concept of authority and leadership that what we have abandoned the clear and certain teachings of the New Testament.
The ancient Jews kept women in the courtyard and placed a fence around the Temple grounds lest a woman feel compelled to enter the Holy Place. The sacred rituals were performed by male priests. The sacred services were led by male priests. Modern day conservative evangelicals and liberal feminists have absolutely violated the clear and certain teachings of Jesus Christ and seem to wish to resurrect the Old economy of Temple buildings, gender priesthoods, and religious rituals. Jesus abolished all that Old economy stuff in the New agreement. The Temple of God is no longer a building, it is the soul of a believer (see I Corinthians 6:19). The priests of God are no longer just male, they are both male and female (see Galatians 3:28). The rituals of God are no longer holy days, sacrifices, and feasts, but faith in Christ and love for God and our fellow man (see Colossians 2:16; John 13:3). The body of Jesus Christ is to make no distinctions in race, class and gender. The gospel of Jesus Christ is a gospel that sets the captives free to serve as the Holy Spirit gifts. To revoke the privilege of a gifted, believing woman from reading Scripture to men is to violate the clear and certain teaching of the New Testament and risk having the legalism and religious ritualism of Spirit-less religion that marked Temple worship after the days of Ezekiel and before the launch of the New Covenant. If conservative, Bible-believing, Christ-loving, Spirit-filled, graced people do not speak out when our conservative brothers move into error on this issue, then we become enablers of God's people as they turn the powerful gospel of grace into an impotent gospel of gender. God forbid that we continue to trifle with subtleties while we ignore certainties.
Grace and Truth,
Wade Burleson
P.S. It was my wife's and my privilege to meet these past few days with a couple of remarkable Christian women. Dee and Wanda of Wartburg Watch are from North Carolina. Wanda is graduated from Duke University with an English degree and Dee is a registered nurse. Both women also have an M.B.A. They are both married and have delightful adult children. Rachelle and I were thrilled to be able to spend some time with them. More than a few pastors and Christian leaders ought to listen to what they are saying.

A has-been Broadway producer and his scheming accountant devise a plan to fatten up their wallets by creating the worst production in history in New Candlelight Theatre's comedic musical "The Producers," a dinner show written by Mel Brooks that will kickoff at NCT in Wilmington on Friday.
A has-been Broadway producer and his scheming accountant devise a plan to fatten up their wallets by creating the worst production in history in New Candlelight Theatre's comedic musical "The Producers," a dinner show written by Mel Brooks that will kickoff at NCT in Wilmington on Friday. The final show ends March 17.
The dinner menu includes fried fish, pork loins, German style chicken, sesame meatballs and a desert bar. For a reduced fee on Friday show dates only, a glass of house wine and cheese appetizers will be available for patrons only desiring light fare.
Five dollars from each ticket sold at Friday's show will benefit Relay for Life of Middletown, in which actor Peter Briccotto serves as the site's entertainment and team events coordinator.
Briccotto, of Middletown, plays multiple roles in "The Producers," from an old lady to a tap-dancing Nazi. On Friday night only, he'll play the role of Leo Bloom (the shady accountant).
Q Peter, what attracted you to volunteer for Relay for Life?
A My mom is a three-time cancer survivor and she was on the committee. Starting out, I used to just find outside groups to come in and sing the national anthem or little things. This is my fifth year and I've slowly just started taking on more [responsibilities], and trying to make Relay the best it can be.
Q What are your duties as the entertainment and team events coordinator for Relay?
A We take care all of the activities for the team. There's over 30 activities to keep everyone awake and having fun all night — so that's one of the jobs. Then I also have to pick all the prizes that we award. That's everything from the little trinkets for winning contests, all the way to [prizes from] our top fundraisers.
Q What can you tell us about Leo Bloom?
A Leo is a nerdy accountant, and a little middle-aged. I started balding early, so the role works for me [laughs]. He's an accountant who dreams of being a Broadway producer, so he meets up with a washed-up Broadway producer and they come up with this scheme to produce Broadway's biggest flop, but everything goes wrong with it, of course.
Q In addition to playing Leo, you also juggle several other roles.
A I play everything from a bum to a tap-dancing Nazi. This show is a huge show and I think I play seven different characters: I'm a bum. I'm a tap-dancing Nazi. I'm a bad Hilter auditioner. I'm an old lady. I'm a prisoner. I'm a theatergoer. I'm also the champagne steward Zaboo, he lives in Roger De Bris' house. Roger De Bris is the director we hire.
Q Does wearing a lot of hats in the show make your head heavy?
A Literally, because I only have my real hair exposed in one part of the show. I'm wearing a wig or a hat the rest of the time [laughs]. It's fun. It's the most fun I've ever had in an ensemble in a show.
Q Who's your favorite character to play?
A Performing "Springtime for Hitler" as the tap-dancing Nazi is a blast. It's a really fun production number that starts the show.

In response to "Mistreated by VA" published July 6: The similarities are very much the same as my husband's have been for the past 23 years.
My husband's situation is a long, complicated and unresolved mess. I'll give a short version: a back injury in training and three surgeries over a period of several years. Without divulging too much of my husband's personal information, just recently he has contacted Sen. Pat Toomey's office and has received a response. He has tried in the past contacting members of Congress to no avail.
We are praying that the right person will get hold of his information and take an interest to get his mess fixed.
I am sure letter writer Kevin Prokop and many other servicemen and women are tired of hearing "contact your congressman." My husband and I are also tired of hearing this. The news does not encourage us either, with the reports of backlog, paperwork, cutbacks etc., in the Veterans Affairs Department.
Still, I still strongly urge Prokop and other service members to contact their congressman. Maybe just the right person will show interest and notice a big problem — and get it resolved.

CNN's top story right now is its own coverage (CNN and TIME are part of the same company) of a week-old story.
The text may as well read like this:
For an entire week, we've been making much ado about nothing, and it has gone on for so long that we find it newsworthy that we've been covering it for that long. This of course will lead to more coverage, followed by criticism from the Administration, blogs and talk radio, leading to yet more coverage of the coverage of the coverage. By the time we finish covering the coverage of the criticism of the coverage of the criticism of the coverage of the coverage, President Bush will no longer be in office. Yipee!

Posted on January 30, 2013
So we've had a pair of scrapbooking scissors come in, and it nearly hit 70 degrees at the end of January. Did I ask for a Smurfy New Year?
Here I am, not bothering anybody, just brooding to myself about whether The American Heritage Spanish Dictionary is a title worth mentioning, and then somebody goes and drops off The Story of Scrap Rubber. It's a wonderful world.
Two personal journals came in, and no, you may NOT have them back. I'm selling them to the Society For Defeathered Tweeters. These are people who tweet so often they've run out of things to say. A good journal, at two lines a Tweet, should keep them supplied with material until something happens again in their lives. (Unlikely, perhaps, so long as they spend all their time Tweeting, but that's the opinion of someone born when computers ran on magnetic tape.) Anyway, one of your journals is all about your spiritual quest, and runs on for only three pages. The Book-and-Weight-Loss Journal goes on for nearly fifty pages, and though it touches lightly on books read and restaurants visited, it is mostly caught up in a bitter struggle to drop from 189 pounds to 173. I wish you had a) explained why these numbers, b) finished the journal so I'd know if you made it, or c) chewed on a few of the pages as a symbol of your willpower. If you're not going to play the game, I don't see how you can expect me to return your journal.
(Note to self: next million dollars: invent diet journal with gluten-free pages.)
A couple of people have dropped off (small, fortunately) pieces of luggage. One of you left a pair of baby socks, and another of you donated a slip of paper with your friend's birthday noted on it. I hope you transferred this information to another, safer place. Oh, and if someone out there is looking for an address book you filled in between 1983 and 1989, it has resurfaced after a quarter of a century. I doubt the pizza coupons in the back are still good.
I did not write that column on the strange things I've seen come through the Book Fair just so you could try to outdo them. Yes, I'm sure I WILL find a buyer for the little pitcher with the painted view of the Odd Fellows' Fountain in Warren, Indiana. But is this what the Book Fair was founded for, I ask you? The DVDs of the Salvation Army sitcom are more in our line.
Still, we will continue to make do with what people give us, be it a history of recycled rubber or the two stethoscopes I've had lately. We have experience, and we have courage. We're hard to frighten. I was uneasy about that belly dancing book you dropped off, but that's just shellshock. We had belly-dancing kits donated once, which included the instructions, cassette tape, complete costume and accoutrements, all tucked into a little box just about the size and shape of a stick deodorant. I sent one to the curator of our dance collection with the note "Thought you could use this", ASSUMING she would look at the label on the box. It took a week of explanation before she realized I had NOT sent her…oh, never mind. And, anyhow, the two bumps in your book on belly dancing turned out to be the finger cymbals.

MuleSoft has released developer tooling for RAML (RESTful API Modeling Language), a concise and expressive language for specifying APIs as a free service available on APIhub (the most comprehensive public repository and richest community for APIs) as well as an open source download at RAML.org now.
The company is telling programmers than any developer can now build REST APIs that foster a standard design-first approach.
"APIs are taking over the world. However, chaos and confusion are still prevalent without design standards for consistency and reuse. This leads to huge variability in quality, friction for the developers, and wildly uncertain API initiatives for enterprises," said Uri Sarid, CTO at MuleSoft.
"We believe that an open, simple, and succinct spec for describing APIs, that captures their structure and fosters pattern-based design and reuse, will help unlock the potential of the API economy. RAML is the right candidate to do exactly that and we see the potential for it to garner broad adoption — even now we're seeing others in the ecosystem rallying around RAML."
RAML is the first standard facilitating what has been called a "design-first" approach to APIs.
In terms of use, RAML captures the simplicity of HTTP and is programming language agnostic in nature.
MuleSoft's claims that its tools "expose the underlying value of RAML" — and that they do this throughout the entire lifecycle of an API, from designing and building to evaluating and integrating.
The MuleSoft tooling includes the API Designer: a web-based, intuitive development tool that builds a live, visual representation of an API on the fly. There are also API providers to create an API in a human-readable format, and then socialize that API definition with key stakeholders.
Iteration is rapid, says the company — editing a RAML spec takes only minutes — and supports the API provider in creating a developer-friendly API.
The API Console is a graphical representation of a RAML-documented API that visually exposes API structures and important patterns while providing access to static and interactive API documentation.
"Developers want tools that are clean with minimal design and a joy to use. That's how the AngularJS framework gained so much traction — it makes development fun. RAML is clearly built on the same principles, targeted at the API ecosystem," said Miško Hevery, AngularJS project founder. "As more and more APIs are described by RAML, API design improves and becomes more consistent. Good API design helps developers maximize productivity and flexibility, eliminating the need for developers to waste countless hours struggling to consume RESTful APIs."

An 18-year-old teenager from Townsend is facing criminal charges for his alleged involvement in the mugging of a Newark teen last month.
An 18-year-old teenager from Townsend is facing criminal charges for his alleged involvement in the mugging of a Newark teen last month.
Tyrone J. Nickens Jr. turned himself in to police on Thursday after learning a warrant had been issued charging him with robbery and conspiracy.
According to Newark Police Department spokesman Cpl. Gerald Bryda, Nickens and two other males engaged the 19-year-old victim in conversation on South Chapel Street near Scholar Drive about 11:30 p.m. on Feb. 15.
One of the three men allegedly struck the victim from behind, knocking him to the ground. The trio then took the victim's wallet and fled the area.
That night and the following morning, the victim's credit cards were used at several locations in Maryland, including Elkton, Havre de Grace and Baltimore, Bryda said.
Using video surveillance taken at those locations, detectives were able to identify Brandon Gatewood, an 18-year-old Elkton resident, as one of the suspects in the mugging.
Police later identified Nickens as one of the other two suspects, Bryda said.
Nickens is being held at the Howard Young Correctional Institution on a $63,000 secured bond.
Police are continuing their investigation into the identity of the third suspect.
Gatewood, who turned himself in to the Cecil County Sheriff's Office on March 3, also is charged in connection with a similar mugging that took place in Newark on Feb. 18 in which a 24-year-old Newark man was beaten and robbed. Three other Maryland residents also are facing charges in connection with that incident.

Tonight the Arden Gild hall will serve as the Delaware debut for the international duo, which will showcase tunes off their new album, as well as display Sissoko's kora, a beautiful 21-stringed-harp commonly played in West Africa.
Ballake Sissoko, a Malian who handles the kora, and his French pal Vincent Segal, a cellist, have successfully cultivated world chamber music for the 21st century — offering eloquent tunes that embrace listeners like a warm blanket.
Tonight the Arden Gild Hall will serve as the Delaware debut for the international duo, in which they'll showcase the kora, a beautiful 21-stringed-harp commonly played in West Africa.
Sissoko released his new solo album "At Peace" in February, featuring Segal. The project is a continuation of his work with Segal on their debut project "Chamber Music," released in 2009. Similar to "Chamber Music," "At Peace" reaffirms that quieter, soft music can also be enjoyed in a culture consumed by mainstream pop and dance music.
Considering most African music is percussion-driven, Segal says it's always a pleasure for him and Sissoko to perform in the United States, since they've discovered Americans are very open-minded about their global chamber music, which draws influence from African tunes.
"A lot of People [in Africa] think African music has to be drums," Segal said, with his mild French accent, during a phone interview with the Hockessin Community News. And while "it's fun for us to perform in Africa or Europe," Segal maintains there's nothing like gigging in the States since "you have every kind of music in the world [there]."
Both highly-skilled musicians, Sissoko has worked with American blues legend Taj Mahal and Italian minimalist Ludovico Einaudi, as well as others. Meanwhile, Segal, who's a huge Duke Ellington fan, has credits that include recordings on the albums "Blazing Arrow" and "The Craft," which are both projects by the California rap-duo Blackalicious. He's also a member of the French trip-hop band Bumcello,

"You guys have NO IDEA about the Seahawks. I live very close to Seattle. This one means more to me than any other game this year. We have to win. Otherwise I have to quit my job and move."
Hilarious that you pick me to quote. I've lived here since 2000 (Ft Lewis) and have lived through the harassment of losing to the hawks twice in the post season.
I watch you guys a ton and *sigh* my 5 year old LOVES the hawks....much to my dismay and effort to the contrary.
Think we have a doosy of a game ahead of us and possibly the winner of this takes the conference.
Good luck, and I hope the winner does not suffer any injuries.

Delivery/Shipping Rates start at 3.80 euro for Ireland and 4.50 euro for the Rest of the World. UK destinations are charged at a lower rate as we are currently shipping from within the UK.

Another security-related surprise, you don't get notified by email (i.e., at the old address) if someone logs in and changes your email address. So email notifications are not a reliable way to detect unauthorized activity. Also, the your messages on the web site can be deleted so they are not reliable for monitoring.cb474 wrote:Holy cow, you're right. That is so dumb. It's like Vanguard is going out of their way to prevent people from having good passwords. I just don't get it, given how common place longer passwords, capitals, etc., are on the most basic email account.tadamsmar wrote:Vanguard does allow you to include upper and lower case when you enter a password. But Vanguard does not check the case when you enter your password. So you don't need to bother with the shift key when you enter letters. Surprise!
I personally log in at least once a month and check my email address carefully (no minor changes) on the Overview. I also check the last login time on the Overview, but that check is not useful if you have an automatic aggregator (like Mint) logging in. I do some transaction checking while logged in also. And I try to be careful to check all snail mail from Vanguard.
If you adhere to your responsibilities under Vanguard's online fraud policy (which includes monitoring your account), then your chances of getting hacked are pretty low and your chances of a significant loss is as low as anything gets.

Experiential Exhibition: The Simulated Bomb ShelterPosted: March 27, 2012 Filed under: Event, Museum News | Tags: Artists 4 Israel, Columbia University, experiential exhibition, Israeli Bomb Shelter Museum, Paul Virilio, Simulation, War and Cinema Leave a comment
According to metro,the pro-Israel graffiti group Artists 4 Israel was recently turned away from Columbia University where it intended to bring a controversial Israeli Bomb Shelter Museum. The "museum," housed in a replica bunker similar to those found in Southern Israel, simulates the experience of a rocket attack through the use of sound and video. The group set up the museum last year in Washington Square Park but the loud noise quickly drew police attention and it was closed down after just half an hour.
The Artists 4 Israel website has recently been hacked but Israeli National News quotes a description of the project:
"The bomb shelter is a Museum of Living History and Art Installation. A functional bomb shelter built in the exact specifications of those found in Sderot, Israel, on the border of Gaza, this refuge mimics the feel, look, small and sounds of the original. From wailing 'Red Alert' sirens to interactive computer terminals, a multi-media presentation provides facts and education about the conflict in the Middle East while artistic flourishes create emotive and important and visceral reactions in the visitor."
The description of this proposed exhibition made me feel a little squeamish. Not only because of the sometimes anti-Palestinian vibe of the artists but because the projects reminded me of something Paul Virilio wrote about in his startling book War and Cinema:
"After 1945, this cinematic artifice of the war machine spread once more into new forms of spectacle. War museums opened all over liberated France at the sites of various landings and battles, many of them in old forts or bunkers. The first rooms usually exhibited relics of the last military-industrial conflict (outdated equipment, old uniforms and medals, yellowing photographs), while others had collections of military documents or screenings of period newsreels. It was not long, however, before the invariably large number of visitors were shown into huge, windowless rooms resembling a planetarium or a flight (or driving) simulator. In these war simulators, the public was supposed to feel like spectators-survivors of the recent battlefield.
If one thinks of the cinema-mausoleums or atmospheric cinemas of the thirties, one can see in this a new outflanking of immediate reality by the cinematic paramnesia of the war machine.
The sites chosen for museums of the Second World War remind us that these fortress-tombs, dungeons and bunkers are first and foremost camerae obscurae, that their hollowed windows, narrow apertures and loopholes are designed to light up the outside while leaving the inside in semi-darkness."
(pg 48-49)
Art often appeals to the emotions of the viewer but there is always a risk when mixing reality (such as the complexities of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict) with fantasy.
On the other hand, aren't all museums places of fantasy to some degree? They're constructed environments, representations of the past or emissaries from an idealized present/future. The difficulty is creating some kind of truth through the narratives told and the objects/experiences used to tell them, the transformation of a kind of fiction into reality. But according to Virilio, it goes both ways; if I found myself in an actual war zone, I'd likely feel that I was in a movie. Fictionalizing reality through simulation can provide access to events but does it also train us to experience the world as no more than representation?

Mulled Cranberry and Cider Punch
From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...This is a simple, but festive, holiday sipper for those occasions when you want to provide a non-alcoholic alternative for children and guests who are teetotalers. It is really simple to make, and while it was first prepared for a large gathering, you can reduce the quantity of ingredients and serve it for a family holiday brunch. This is best prepared several hours before serving. While it can be poured immediately, time gives the ingredients a chance to blend and mellow, and greatly improves the flavor of the finished punch when it is warmed. You can add spices to taste, but be careful to limit the amount of cloves you use. They can add a bitter taste and will spoil the punch if you use them too freely. I think those of you who try this will enjoy it. It would be a perfect drink to serve at a tree trimming party. The recipe appears below. Before I close, I wanted to thank the very special folks who are responsible for the photo blog, Knapkins. They have created a beautiful site and taken away the need for participating blogs to submit photos for publication. They do the hard work and free us to concentrate on our own blogs and recipe creation. It's like having a second pair of hands to help with the work. I really hope you pay them a visit and see how tastefully they do what they do. You can visit their site, here.
Mulled Cranberry and Cider Punch...from the kitchen of One Perfect Bite
3 cups apple cider
6 cups cranberry juice
3 cups orange juice
3/4 cup pure maple syrup
1-1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
3/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 teaspoons confectioners' sugar
Optional: red food coloring
Several hours before serving, combine all ingredients in a large heavy pot. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for several minutes. Remove from heat and allow to sit at room temperature for several hours. Reheat before serving. Yield: 20 to 24 servings.

"I only have ONE crush and he isn't from Disqus. He's an airhead. Every time I drive past him my sister says,"There's your boyfriend!" If it wasn't for him I'd definitely say Greenlantern!??"
I got on the train and rushed my way to see her she was standing there with a very lonly look on her face "hey darling" i said to her in the most suductive way i could "hey my beutiful" she replyed she huged me and grinded up as she hugged me and grinded back down as she let go i knew what she wanted.
we went to southbank and talk to a bit and it came to about 6pm it was a normal british winter night, cold but the lighted up skys made you feel warm inside i wispered in her ear "lets go to a more private place" and grabed her hand we went to north greenwhich station a very busy station but round the outside of it was the most private place you could ever go.
We sat on are favourite bench and cuddled we held hands and she kept kissing mine i couldnt stand it it was making me so hard the tight jeans i had on was showing the full shape of my penis she looked at it and went "aww" and put her hand on my throbing manhood and started to rub it i locked my lips on hers and started to kiss her softly she often let out a little moan i undone my jeans and she grabed my cock and start to move her head lower towards it i was about to just explode this was the first time i ever had a girl touch my dick.
she started to suck it and i could feel all these feelings on my penis the end of my dick touching her tonsoles and the end of her tounge licking the start of my balls she went so slow it was hard to cum but felt so, so unlike any feeling i could give myself i took my out of her mouth she let out a moan and the puppy dog eyes i moved my hands down to her pussy it wasnt like anything i have felt before she undid her jeans and took them off and i moved her thong to the side a little and started to return the favour her juice from her wet pussy driping into my mouth my tounge touching her outer pussy gently sticking my tounge she grabed my hair and pulled on it (i had long hair at the time) i loved people touching my hair this made my dick grow again i lifting my head up she grabed me by the hair again pushed my onto her and got my dick out of my jeans and said "chris ive been wanting to fuck you for so long its now or never" (this was my first fuck i didnt no what to do) i replyed " ive been masturbating over this moment for months" with in a instance she was jacking me off i was about to cum when she moved my dick into her and she and i both moaned and moved are chest towards eachother i cumed inside her she took my dick out and put my head down into her pussy and i licked my own cum out of it, it tasted great i have always had that second nature to me i always cleaned up by drinking my own cum, i got grabed again and moved it slowly into her pussy this time i felt everyfeeling i felt like i was in a hot sticky fake pussy( i had one which i brought with some credit card details i found on the internet) i moved in and my forskin was all the way back and my penis was like it was ripping it felt like my forskin was goning to full off i groaned and went back her pussy was so wet my forskin stayed back i started to go faster and faster when i heard footsteps i didnt care i just continued to fuck mallory she was screaming as i pounded her pussy she start to play with my balls.
The foot steps got closer and closer it was a women in her 20's it seems she just stood there watching these two teenagers fuck eachothers brains out she grabed my ass cheeks and said "nice and firm" i didnt take any notice nor did mallory she was still screaming "omg chris omg im going to reach my prime" i continued to fuck her i could feel myself brusing mallory screamed and i felt this warm liqud slither down my shaft i put my hand on my shaft and licked my fingers it was her cum i tasted her cum it soon made me cum mallory made me lick it all up again.

The U.S. Office of the Comptroller of Currency has lifted its oversight agreement with NexTier Bank.
"The lifting of the formal agreement reflects the unwavering focus and multiyear effort ... to address and correct the issues identified by the OCC," said NexTier CEO Donald Shamey in a news release.
The OCC placed NexTier under the agreement in June 2010.
To comply with the agreement, the bank lowered its credit risk, reduced levels of criticized assets and implemented a plan to generate more profits.
Shamey said that many of the problems the OCC found at the bank came from its Arizona commercial real estate investments. While those investments often produced a large volume of loans, many of those loans were not repaid during the Great Recession.
In 2010, a merger between NexTier and Northwest Savings Bank of Warren, Pa., fell apart because of unspecified deficiencies found by regulators with Northwest.
In 2011, the Snyder Group of Kittanning became a majority shareholder in the bank, which allowed it to remain independent.
Mark Snyder, a representative for the Snyder Group and chairman of NexTier Inc., praised the work of Shamey and the rest of the bank's executives.
"This executive team has made significant strides in improving the bank's performance. Don has been instrumental in leading the team to successfully meet the requirements of the OCC," Snyder said in the release.
NexTier has $500 million in assets and has 15 offices in Butler, Allegheny and Armstrong counties.

Wired.com's Vaporware 2010 is online with the 14th installment in their annual series calling out overdue tech projects. Since they have the Duke Nukem Forever to kick around again, they again "honor" the shooter four months to the day after it was reannounced, a decade after it first made their list, and six years after it earned their "Lifetime Achievement Award." Other games they list include L.A. Noire and our choice for #1, Half Life 2: Episode 3. They also once again pick on Black Mesa, as they seem to think singling out this in-development modification from a team of volunteers as vaporware is fair play, though we would disagree.

Another exhibition, this time at the Scottish National Portrait Gallery, chronicles one hundred years (1730-1830) of "intimate portraits," including portraits of Walter Scott and Robert Burns.
This exhibition explores a fascinating but relatively unknown type of portraiture that flourished in Georgian and Regency Britain between the 1730s and 1830s.
It features intimate portraits by Thomas Gainsborough, Joshua Reynolds, John Downman, Richard Cosway, David Wilkie and many others, all drawn from the collections of the National Galleries of Scotland and the British Museum, many never exhibited before.
Portraits were displayed in public at the Royal Academy exhibitions but behind the scenes, in private sitting rooms, studies and bedrooms some of them served a more intimate role. Miniatures were often worn as jewellery to keep a loved one close; fragile pastels protected by glittering gilt frames were displayed on walls, while drawings were framed or mounted in albums to be shown to friends and family.
The exhibition features nearly 200 examples in a range of materials, from pencil, chalk, watercolours and pastels to miniatures on ivory. It includes many self-portraits as well as intimate portraits of the artists' families and friends. Sitters vary from the merchant and middle classes to the aristocracy, actors and celebrities including Lady Hamilton, and political and literary figures such as Sir Walter Scott, the Duke of Wellington, Robert Burns and the young Queen Victoria.

Thousands rally in Hartford for gun control
Hartford — More than 5,000 people gathered at the state Capitol on Valentine's Day, waving signs that read, "Newtown moms for change," "sensible gun control" and "NRA kills our kids."
"I came out today with my son because I think it is important that we share our voice that this idea that anybody can go and buy these kinds of weapons of destruction, and my son's life is at risk, is insane to me, and I have to let our legislators know this is wrong," said Lori Brant, of the greater Waterbury area.
State leaders, from Gov. Dannel P. Malloy to Lt. Gov. Nancy Wyman to Attorney General George Jepsen, spoke at the March for Change rally in favor of "common sense" gun laws. Family members who lost relatives to gun violence said it was time for change. Survivors of gun violence said momentum was building but the public would have to march for change the next day and each day after that to keep the momentum going.
March for Change rally co-founder Nancy Lefkowitz said the group also was marching for those who lost their lives before the Dec. 14 Newtown tragedy and since. The group works with Connecticut Against Gun Violence and is asking for a ban on high-capacity magazines and military-style assault weapons, she said. The group also wants universal background checks, annual registration renewals for handguns and safe storage of all guns.
There are more than 30,000 gun deaths and 12,000 to 14,000 gun homicides per year, according to Jepsen; besides gun control laws, social attitudes need to change, he said.
"The best form of gun control is when a man looks in the mirror and questions keeping a gun in the home that children might find," Jepsen said.
Malloy thanked President Barack Obama for saying in his State of the Union address Tuesday that the people of Newtown deserved a vote on gun control.
"When people will block an up-or-down vote from a common sense principle that is supported overwhelmingly by the citizens of the U.S. ... something is wrong with our politics when we cannot vote on what we need to do in this nation," Malloy said.
Actress Christine Baranski, who raised her daughters in a rural town not far from Newtown, read a speech on behalf of U.S. Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., to remind the public he was pushing for change at the national level.
"As you march in support of the ban on assault-style weapons and high-capacity magazines, I am working with Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., and other colleagues to achieve that goal," she read.
Secretary of the State Denise Merrill said those in favor of gun control should keep contacting state legislators in order for their voices to be heard. In the halls of the state Capitol, the message is that for every one email legislators get in favor of gun control, they receive 100 that are opposed to tightening gun laws, she said.
"They know this is the right thing; they are horrified by what has happened, but they need us standing there with them, and we need to be quiet no longer. Today is our day," she said.
State Senate President Pro Tempore Donald Williams, D-Brooklyn, said he would do everything he could to move the "common sense majority" forward to get the weapons out of the hands of those who could harm children. State Sen. John McKinney, R-Fairfield, said he was lucky to represent Fairfield, home of the co-founders of March for Change.
"Beyond any laws that we may pass, each one of us can make a difference in making our society better," he said.
Unlike Washington, D.C., he said, where there is gridlock between Republicans and Democrats, legislators in Connecticut work together.
"What we need is to demand that our representatives in Washington take a lesson from our lead and work together," McKinney said.
Jillian Soto, sister of Newtown teacher Victoria Soto who was killed in the shootings, said she was never interested in the issue of gun control before her sister was murdered.
"You never think it is going to hit home," she said. She came to Hartford to keep her sister's name out there and demand change, she said.
Vicki was silly, hard-working and loved her life, Soto said. Celebrities have called her family and thousands of people have written to praise Vicki for risking her life and saving 11 children, Jillian Soto said.
"For me, Vicki was a hero long before Sandy Hook. She didn't need to die to prove that to me," she said.
On behalf of her sister, Jillian Soto asked for a "real" assault-style weapons ban, for magazines to be limited to 10 rounds and for gun-sale loopholes to be closed.
"Nothing I can ever say or do will ever bring her back, but I don't want this to happen to anyone else," Jillian Soto said.
Robert Thomson, whose 14-year-old son was fatally shot in the back of the head on the streets of Bridgeport a little more than a year ago, said, "My prayers go out to the families of Newtown, but in these urban cities, we are confronted with this problem every day."
Something has to be done, he said — these children are not reaching their full potential, they are not reaching adulthood, he said.
Colin Goddard, survivor of the Virginia Tech massacre and an advocate for reviving the expired federal Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act — the so-called Brady Bill — said the people of Connecticut are not alone in this fight.
