Membership Meetings
2009 ALA Membership Meeting
Membership Forums and Meetings are one important way that you can affect what ALA does. You can express your views at the Forum and at the Meeting you can vote on resolutions to send to Council.
- ALA Membership Meetings: Libraries in Hard Times Join us for two open forums highlighting the role of libraries during a recession. Take advantage of these opportunities to address the ALA Leaders and offer your vote on resolutions. Membership Meetings are an important way that you can affect what ALA does! 2009 ALA Membership Meetings will be held on Saturday, July 11, 3:30 - 5:00 p.m. & Monday, July 13, 11:30 a.m. - 1:00 p.m.
ALA Membership Meetings and How They Work
What is an ALA Membership Meeting?
ALA Membership Meetings are an opportunity for ALA members to make things happen in the American Library Association. ALA members can bring issues important to libraries and librarianship to the floor and decide how they might be addressed within ALA.
When are ALA Membership Meetings held?
A Membership Meeting is held during the first two days of the Annual Conference and at other times that may be set by the ALA Executive Board, ALA Council, or by membership petition as provided for in ALA Bylaw Article II, Section 2.
Who may attend ALA Membership Meetings?
All ALA personal members.
How is the agenda for the meetings set?
The Committee on Membership Meetings is charged with planning the agenda for the membership meetings as specified in ALA Policy 7.4.10.
Over the past few years, the Committee on Membership Meetings has developed suggested agendas, which include some "hot" discussion topics to draw ALA members to the meetings.
The ALA members present at the meeting can change the proposed agendas at any time. Any discussion topics suggested by the committee, or others, are given second place to resolutions proposed by the ALA members.
Who makes membership resolutions?
YOU--ALA personal members.
The resolution can be on any topic or issue that falls within the resolution guidelines (see reverse side of this page). It is important to remember that the Council Resolutions Committee must review all membership resolutions. Resolutions can be easily submitted well in advance of the ALA Annual Conference by sending them by Michael Golrick, chair. The Council Committee on Resolutions' table will be in the ALA Office Area at the McCormick Place Convention Center. It's table schedule is available now (Doc).
All resolutions approved by the membership are presented at the next ALA Council meeting. "The presiding officer of Council calls for Council's guidance on the disposition of each membership item in turn." (ALA Policy 7.4.10)
A final thought
This meeting is YOUR meeting. Members control the content of all membership meetings. Any member may speak on any topic by standing at a microphone. When the microphone number is called, you state your name, then say "ALA Personal Member" and speak to the topic on the floor. There is a bit of formality about this process, but it doesn't take more than a few minutes of observation to understand how things work.
Guidelines and Resources
Guidlines for submitting Resolutions during the Membership Meetings are available as a Word Document.

- YALSA President's Program & Membership Meeting: Creativity Counts: Nurturing Teens' Talents at Libraries Large & Small Monday 1:30 to 3:00. The 2009 YALSA President's Program will feature a panel of speakers who are sure to inspire the audience to engage teens' creative juices at their libraries. Whatever the medium - creative writing, photography, fine arts, music, theater, design, gaming, cartooning, digital media production - all of these endeavors can and should be nurtured and advocated by librarians who work with teens. This program will highlight the realistic potential of all types of libraries, both big and small.


text: Hi, something odd is happening: I have a multiserver setup with ISPconfig 22.214.171.124 and Debian 6 on all servers my master server (web01) which also acts to serve my own sites also holds the ISPconfig CP. I have two DNS servers: dns01 and dns02, dns02 is a mirror of dns01. I have multiple domains, for example domain1.be and domain2.com when I edit settings (e.g. add a new A record/subdomain) for domain.be, all works fine and the DNS server takes over the new config and dns02 mirrors it perfectly. BUT when I add a new A record for domain2.com the DNS servers don't take over the new configuration... So it can't be a - firewall issue - connection to master DB issue Also the option of max dns records is set to '-1' in the client template. what to do?

Blink-182′s Secret of Success – Tension Between Bandmates [AUDIO]
Blink-182's 'Neighborhoods' album, their first in eight years, was recently released and the band is reflecting on its creation and what made them decide to reform after a bitter split.
During an interview with radio station KROQ, band member Mark Hoppus said that what makes Blink-182 work as a band is a sort of internal friction, a desire to expand on musical ideas in different ways. "There's a tension in Blink-182 between Travis [Barker], Tom [DeLonge] and myself that somehow works," Hoppus explains. "There's a dynamic, a push and a pull between the three of us trying to take songs in different directions and that's what makes a Blink-182 song."
According to DeLonge, the band's 2005 split was acrimonious. "We all hated each other's guts for no reason," he says. "We don't even know what we were fighting about. I was very open about it. I was like, I was never going to do this again. I really thought, never."
In 2008, Barker was seriously injured in a plane crash, which caused the band members to reevaluate their relationship with one another. DeLonge recalls, "But then that plane crash happened, then you realize how stupid you're acting and how petty things are and then I started thinking, 'Oh my God.' I like the idea of choosing not to do it but I didn't like the idea of God and nature choosing for me. … After that I was kinda open to whatever."
So they decided to put aside the old tensions. "No one wants a heavy heart with old friends," says DeLonge. "We don't even know what we were fighting about. That's how stupid it was."

Colin Powell: Hagel Would Do 'Great Job'
By Jon Hilsenrath and Jamila Trindle
Former Republican Secretary of State Colin Powell endorsed President Barack Obama's nomination of Chuck Hagel for defense secretary.
Mr. Powell said that Mr. Hagel had a "very, very distinguished public service record" and that he would do a "great job" as defense secretary.
Mr. Hagel, a former Republican senator from Nebraska, has been attacked by other Republicans for being unsupportive of Israel and soft on Iran. Mr. Powell defended Mr. Hagel's record on these and other issues and said he expected Mr. Hagel to offer a "very spirited defense" of his record in confirmation hearings…

Take a peek at Datsun's new car
Nissan Motor Co.'s Datsun unit Monday revealed the sketches of the first car that the revived brand will launch in a global premiere in India this month.
Japan's Nissan restored the Datsun brand last year after it was discontinued nearly three decades ago, and plans to sell low-price cars under the brand in emerging markets.
Nissan Chief Executive Carlos Ghosn will be in India to unveil the first car from the Datsun brand on July 15, a sign of the importance of the Indian market, where small cars such as those that Datsun would sell make up three quarters of the 1.9 million cars sold in the last fiscal year that ended March 31.
Global auto makers expect the South Asian country to become one of the top markets for automobiles globally by the turn of the decade despite a current slowdown in the market. This optimism has led several companies to either set up new factories in India or expand their existing operations.
Datsun plans to introduce its subcompact hatchback in three emerging markets–India, Indonesia and Russia in early 2014, and in South Africa after that. In India, the cars would sell for the equivalent of between $3,000 and $5,000, which would put it in competition with products from Suzuki Motor Corp., Hyundai Motor Co., and General Motors Co.


text: Got that from a magazine. ~KnightMan~With $400 and some hard work, a pair of Canadian teens have managed to send their toy Lego man into space, and create a stunning video in the process. Toronto 17-year olds Matthew Ho and Asar Mahammed used an $85 weather balloon to launch a Lego man carrying a Canadian flag up to 80,000 feet to the upper boundaries of Earth's atmosphere in January. Inspired by a similar project completed by MIT students over a year ago, the two Canadian teens needed just a few months to build the contraption. They rigged their balloon with a video camera to capture the incredible footage of the planet's curvature as well as the darkness of space. Once uploaded to You Tube, the video of the soaring Lego man carrying a Canadian flag became an instant hit, bringing in hundreds of views. The pair also attached a GPS-enabled mobile phone to the floating project so they could track its decent back to Earth.

London: The task facing interim Chelsea manager Rafa Benitez became even more imposing as his side were booed off following a desperately poor goalless draw with west London rivals Fulham.
It was the second 0-0 scoreline in two games under the Spaniard, who replaced club legend Roberto Di Matteo just a week previously, leaving the Blues with just two wins from their last 10 fixtures, winless in six in the Premier League and yet to score under their new boss.
There was mutiny in the air towards the end of the game as the home fans sang "we want our Chelsea back" before loudly jeering the team off at the full-time whistle after they created virtually no opportunities in the 90 minutes.
Di Matteo`s name once again rang around Stamford Bridge in the 16th minute - recognising the shirt number which he used to wear as a Blues player - and Benitez appears to face an impossible task to win around his team`s supporters.
The former Liverpool manager made two changes to the side that drew 0-0 in his first game in charge against Manchester City on Sunday, making the strange decision to rest Juan Mata and John Obi Mikel, with Oriol Romeu and Ryan Bertrand coming in. Fulham, for their part, made three changes from the side who lost to Stoke City, with Mahamadou Diarra, Hugo Rodallega and Damien Duff brought into the starting line-up.
Benitez avoided the boos that greeted his appearance in the home dugout against City, yet the atmosphere around Stamford Bridge was flat from the outset, as if all enthusiasm has been sucked out of the players and supporters in the last week.
Chelsea simply lacked any invention as Oscar and Eden Hazard were denied space to operate and Fernando Torres was lazy and laboured in his movement as the focal point of the attack.
The only action of note in the first period came on the half-hour mark when Blues right-back Cesar Azpilicueta squared for Torres, who turned sharply in the penalty area but struck his effort straight at Fulham goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer with his left foot.
The boos and jeers that greeted the players at the half-time whistle did nothing to inspire an improved performance after the break, with Fulham more threatening as they looked to counterattack.
In the 58th minute, a fantastic chipped pass by Giorgos Karagounis put Fulham left-back John Arne Riise through on goal but the Norwegian scuffed his shot from eight yards and Petr Cech was able to save.
Fifteen minutes from time, Riise again tested Cech with a stinging shot from 20 yards after tidy work from substitute Kerim Frei. As the game drew to a close, the visitors increasingly looked the more likely scorers as they continued to play with defensive organisation and verve of the break.
Yet for Benitez, there is a long, long way to go if he is to win around the Chelsea fans and convince them that owner Roman Abramovich made the right decision.

M&T Bank Stadium
M&T Bank Stadium was filled to the brim, as Baltimore Ravens fans welcomed the team home after its 2013 Super Bowl victory; that is, except for the suite level. More than half the suites were deserted, including those owned by Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti. There was also a dearth of the usual VIPs. Many of the companies that used their suites had given -- or held drawings for -- the tickets to staff employees, friends and families.

UT Tyler Earns Final Approval to Establish College of PharmacyFollow @UTTyler

The University of Texas at Tyler has completed the final step to establish a much-anticipated college of pharmacy in East Texas, President Rodney H. Mabry announced.
At its Aug. 22 meeting, the UT System Board of Regents officially created the college, which is to be named the Ben and Maytee Fisch College of Pharmacy in acknowledgement of a generous contribution from the Ben and Maytee Fisch Family Foundation.
"This is truly an historic occasion, and a great addition for UT Tyler and the entire East Texas community," said UT Tyler Provost Alisa White. "In addition to fulfilling a workforce need, the Ben and Maytee Fisch College of Pharmacy will grant East Texas students access to this field of study, whereas before they did not have any local or regional options and were forced to go out of state."
A diverse group of regional hospitals, businesses and institutions of higher education supported the establishment of the college, as did Texas legislators and Gov. Perry, who passed and signed Senate Bill 566, authorizing The University of Texas Board of Regents to create the program. President Mabry first conceived of the idea for a pharmacy school in 2003. After almost a decade of consideration and groundwork, Mabry read a news story about an innovative, self-sustaining pharmacy school at East Tennessee State University and partnered with other area leaders to establish a similar model at UT Tyler.
"UT Tyler's College of Pharmacy will directly address the state's need for more pharmacists. We will be able to train more pharmacists in their home state, who will in turn stay in Texas to work," said Regent Steven Hicks, chairman of the Academic Affairs Committee, following the Regents' vote of approval.
UT Health Northeast will partner with UT Tyler on the research to be conducted at the new college of pharmacy.
"Our mission is to improve the lives of Texans through education, research and health care. The partnership between UT Tyler and UT Health Northeast to create a college of pharmacy fulfills this mission perfectly," said UT System Chancellor Francisco Cigarroa.
In addition to establishing the college and authorizing its name as the Ben and Maytee Fisch College of Pharmacy, the regents also granted UT Tyler the authority to begin work on the building to house the college of pharmacy. Design will begin immediately, with construction scheduled to start no later than March 2014.
UT Tyler hired the founding dean, Dr. Lane Brunner, earlier this month. Brunner will lead the accreditation process with the goal of accepting the first class of students in fall 2015.
One of the 15 campuses of the UT System, UT Tyler offers excellence in teaching, research, artistic performance and community service. More than 80 undergraduate and graduate degree programs are available at UT Tyler, which has an enrollment of almost 7,000 high-ability students at its campuses in Tyler, Longview and Palestine.

I am new here, but I am very happy with Bible Analyzer. Therefore I want to make some modules for my own, but I have some problems with Bible modules.
I use SQLite Database Brower in Ubuntu 8.04 and imported via a csv file a Greek New Testament. I do this one time in html code and another time in unicode, but BA view the former incorrect (it doesn't display the text in Symbol according to the html code) and the latter BA view only ????? for each letter.
Besides this, I cannot search in my user made module.
Can anybody give my some help to solve this problem?
PS: I also make a dictionary but this works very well, searching and viewing is no problem. How can this be??

On the day news broke of the conviction of U.S. Army intelligence analyst Bradley Manning for downloading secret government documents and giving them to Wikileaks for release to the public, Jason Urbanski held a one-man rally for Manning's freedom in front of the county courthouse in La Porte, Indiana. His handpainted sign with red-glitter letters said 'FREE BRADLEY MANNING."
I happened upon Urbanski while I touring around the area. I took the opportunity to talk with him a bit.
Urbanski spoke of Manning in heroic terms. "He sacrificed his freedom to show the world the truth," Urbanski said. "He made a really unselfish decision to do something good. We can't forget about him."
A restaurant worker in nearby New Buffalo, Michigan, Urbanski said he was hoping that a future president, if not the current one, would pardon Manning. The way to pursue that, Urbanski reasoned, was to start at a grassroots level.
Manning was convicted by a court martial on several counts, including espionage. Manning was acquitted, however, of aiding the enemy, which was the most serious charge pursued by prosecutors.
"I think that what Bradley Manning did was just motivated by simple human empathy," Urbanski said. "It was a political act, but really it was an act of human compassion."
While I was there, Urbanski's protest seemed to draw neither cheers nor jeers from passers-by. I think it is safe to say his opinions represent a minority view in the United States. I, myself, don't see Manning in the same light that Urbanski does, but I am, however, very happy to see someone out flexing their First Amendment rights on a courthouse street-corner to weigh in on the topic.

Great match peach! The Lanai harbor is perfect for the pic of E/D on the dingy thingy. I think the other two pictures (my earlier post) are at a different location though. The Lanai harbor doesn't appear to have an stacks/towers that are in the background shot of the BQ's. Also the shot of E/D running by a large tank doesn't appear to have other tanks immediately behind it like at Lanai harbor.
Another petroglyph reserve is located in the southern part of Lanai. From Lanai City, head toward Manele Bay on Manele Bay Road, then turn left on the first dirt road. The petroglyphs are just beyond the large water tank on the slopes of the hill.

The Game of the Pizza. The Magnificent Recipes of the King of Pizza (or pretty close)is on its way!
His book will be out tomorrow
Giulio and Paul,I must have missed your posts while I was gone but two truly fantastic looking pies. I don't think Bonci could have made one any better.Mathew, Thanks for the heads up about the book! With all the press he has been receiving, I was wondering how long it would take before Bonci had a book to his name.Jim
Paul - I am hoping my rusty Italian will get me through the texts. At least we can easily comprehend the recipes, since they will be easily identifiable with grams and obvious ingredients. Maybe a few of us can translate some of the recipes here - Peter might have to chime in about copyright though.
John,Thanks for posting your interpretations of Bonci's books. I do have a question I hope you can clarify. In the third formula, is Bonci referring to a 50/50 mix of bolted (white) spelt and integrale spelt or 50% buratto and 50% integrale spelt?
Some initial thoughts...I am still going through the book, finding words that I need to translate, but overall I just love this book. There is a wealth of information, and some of our experiments have been dead on in terms of technique, workflow, and percentages. There is even a generous amount of information on creating your own "madre", which takes 10 days and uses yogurt for the inoculation.The book is broken down into 3 different doughs:1. a white flour (type 0 Buratto) using dry yeast,2. a "mixed" flour (50% type 2 Buratto, 25% white flour, and 25% whole spelt [farina di farro integrale]) using a combination of dry yeast and natural starter,3. a 50% spelt, 50% whole spelt using only natural yeast natural.All the recipes reference one of these doughs as a base. The first two are 70% hydration and the third is 80%. All use 4% oil and 2% salt. The natural yeast is used at 10%, the dry at .7% and .4%, with the third dough using 15%. The book has some amazing photography of the crumb structure of each of the 3 dough types, the second one being the most open. They are all developed by hand.I love that NONE of the pictures of crumb show an even height - they are decidedly uneven with lots of peaks and valleys. I get the sense that this is a good thing - pockets for the filling to fall into.I will post more as I get through. I have never read an entire book in Italian, so it is going slowly to make sure I am understanding things correctly.John
John and Giulio,I was looking over on the M.Mulino website and it says that they are producing a white (I am guessing this is the Buratto) spelt and a whole wheat spelt (integrale) http://www.mulinomarino.it/eng/prodotti.php. I am kind of curious now how similar M Mulino's white spelt is to the one produced by Vita Spelt www.natureslegacyforlife.com/shopping/flours/non-organic-white-spelt-flour-5lbs/. John,I have not been back to Williams Sonoma in a while, can your tell from the packaging whether they are selling the Buratto spelt or the integrale?
John,I have not been back to Williams Sonoma in a while, can your tell from the packaging whether they are selling the Buratto spelt or the integrale?
Since Einkorn is referred to as L'Enkir elsewhere on their website, I would guess that narrows the possibilities down to Emmer or Spelt.

Tonight on WWE Main Event: It's the second episode of WWE's newest television endeavor and they've got another big matchup on tap as The Big Show looks to make it two in a row against another former World Heavyweight Champion, Randy Orton. Also in action is Kofi Kingston. Should be a good one!
And we are TAPED! from San Jose, Calif. Michael Cole and The Miz are our hosts. This show is presented in WWEHD (TV-PG,V).
Keeping with the format of this show, we get some pretty good video packages on the two combatants in tonight's featured bout: The Big Show and Randy Orton.
Backstage with Josh Mathews, Show says he's out to prove he's the most destructive force in the company. He's not going to cater to the fickle WWE Universe anymore.
Backstage with Matt Striker, Randy Orton cuts quite possibly one of the weirdest promos of his career.
Match #1 - Randy Orton (St. Louis, Mo.) vs. The Big Show (Tampa, Fla.)
They end up on the outside and Show hits a Shhh! Chop on the rail. He loads Orton up to drive him into the post but Orton slides out the backdoor and sends Show head-first into the steel post.
The two are battling and Orton manages to send Show flying over the top rope and crashing down to the floor below. The two battle on the outside and this time, it's Orton who is delivering chop to Show's chest up against the barricade. Back in the ring, Orton goes to work with a Garvin Stomp.
Big Show, though, starts to get going but runs into a dropkick. Orton is slow to cover and Show kicks out, sending Orton to the floor in the process. They again battle on the outside and Orton hits a drop-toe hold that sends Show into the steel steps. Orton pulls Show into the ring and hits the draping DDT not from the middle rope, but with Show hanging over the top rope. Orton now going to that place and he starts pounding for the RKO. Show gets up and Orton hits it but Show's momentum takes him out of the ring.
Orton follows Show to the outside and calls for another RKO but Show sends him ribs-first into the side of the ring. Show throws him back into the ring and hits an elbow to the ribs and then locks in the Colossal Clutch for a moment. He gets up and drives another elbow into the injured ribs. And another. And another. Back to the Clutch now. Orton is able to come back to his feet only to be hit by the choke slam and that is it. Show wins it.
Winner via pinfall: The Big Show
Match #2 - Kofi Kingston (Ghana, West Africa) vs. Michael McGillicutty (Champlin, Minn.)
A quick win here for Kingston in a spotlight bout, as he finishes McGillicutty off with the SOS.
Winner via pinfall: Kofi Kingston
After the match, The Miz enters the ring to confront Kingston. Miz offers it up to Kingston, so Kingston proposes that next week, right here on Main Event, Miz will defend his WWE Intercontinental Championship against Kingston in the evening's featured bout. Miz has one response: "You're on." Miz tries to sneak attack Kingston with the belt but Kingston ducks it and hits Trouble in Paradise. Kingston holds up the title to cheers from the crowd.

While most of the reaction I saw regarding Dave and Brett was supportive of the duo, there was a handful who didn't see this as a great loss. Some of this stems from the fact that the antics of Milo Hamilton kept the pair from truly establishing an identity and legitimacy of their own. Even still, if you look outside of Houston you'll find that the former duo, and Raymond in particular, was very well thought of in the industry. While the radio broadcast team as a whole ranked in the bottom third of a poll conducted by FanGraphs, it was clear that Hamilton was considered to be a drag on their quality. Head over there and you'll see lines like "the quality of the broadcast has improved dramatically with less Milo Hamilton," "the road broadcasts are solid," and "many of the sentiments regarding Dave Raymond are reminiscent of those regarding Astros television broadcaster Jim Deshaies, who is decidedly excellent."
In addition to being well thought of as broadcasters, they had established a strong relationship with the team's fans. They freely interacted with many fans on Twitter, sharing interesting tidbits about the team that you won't find anywhere else as well as joking around and sharing laughs with many. They often made themselves available before games to meet and take pictures with fans, further strengthening the fans' connection to the team.
But I'll be honest here; the replacement of the team's radio team doesn't really make much of a difference in the grand scheme of things. This post isn't meant to lift Dave and Brett up as martyrs. I think if you asked even the most outraged fans they would tell you this was simply the straw that broke the camel's back. Astros fans have had to put up with a lot of really crappy stuff recently.
In addition to Dave Raymond and Brett Dolan, many of the faces and voices of the club have disappeared this season. Fans also have dealt with the loss of the ever interactive Sr. Director of Social Media, Alyson Footer, when she left to take a national position with MLB.com. Alyson worked tirelessly to connect the fans with the players and provide a behind the scenes look at the club. Also going away is Zach Levine, who essentially covered the team single-handedly (also, left-handedly) for the Chronicle this season. Levine had grown from the stats oriented lefty to a well-rounded, humorous writer who was also not shy to talk to fans. It's unusual for a beat writer to be so well liked by fans and hearing that Z was leaving was another blow to the fans connection to the team. I should also point out that, as of the time of this post, it is still unknown if the very popular and nationally recognized TV broadcast team of Jim Deshaies and Bill Brown will be returning next year, as well as sideline (dugout?) reporter Greg Lucas. It is speculated that JD will be back, but Brownie is said to be contemplating retirement. Greg Lucas is still in limbo as well.
The biggest blow to Astros fans is the imminent switch from the National League to the American League. It's a slap in the face to a team with over 50 years of history in the league. The Astros are the winningest NL expansion team by a comfortable margin and have long standing rivalries that are now meaningless. The team was held hostage as Bud Selig and the owners took their sweet time supposedly "vetting" Jim Crane. What many believe now is that Crane was basically coerced into negotiating away the Astros NL history in exchange for being approved as the new owner.
Fans have also had to deal with the repercussions of going through a scorched earth rebuild. Years of neglect had dried up the talent pipeline for the organization to the point that the Astros have essentially had to start completely over, reminiscent of our start as an expansion club. This has resulted in back to back seasons of record breaking losses for the club. What few marketable players the fans could root for were traded off in order to shore up the foundation of the talent pipeline. While more mature fans recognize that this had to be done, it doesn't make it any easier to root for the major league product that was left behind.
*Update: Clark and I will be working out a time to discuss the "fan perspective" tomorrow.

It's become great sport — and often profitable — to identify vulnerabilities in applications, operating systems, and LAN/WAN device controlling software. These activities are not in themselves a problem. It's the efforts of white hat hackers that help vendors tighten up product security and increase user awareness of high-risk environments or actions. But when greed or the need for 15 minutes of fame results in the untimely public disclosure of discovered weaknesses, some white hats start looking a little gray.
I'm well aware of the arguments that claim vendors are slow to respond to reported vulnerabilities. Although progress has been made, companies such as Microsoft, Oracle, and other major suppliers must do better. Every effort must be made to shore up breaches in software security as soon as possible after identified. Excuses about modification cycle times must not get in the way of stepping up to deal responsibly with consumer risk. However, I don't believe this gives anyone the right to publicly disclose product vulnerabilities before they are properly dealt with.
Claims that public disclosure helps protect consumers carry little weight. Most consumers have no idea what to do with the information. They rely on vendor patches and product updates to maintain system assurance. The only winners, besides the person making the announcement, are the black hat hackers who haven't yet found the weakness themselves. I believe the most common reason some white hats make their discoveries public is recognition by their peers or by potential security company employers.
The debate between these two factions about the appropriateness of public disclosure has only one winner — cybercriminals. Black hats who don't have to work as hard to discover vulnerabilities on their own. The clear losers are the rest of us who use products for which assurance is degraded as additional attack vectors are made public.
The answer, as in most debates like this one, is cooperation by both sides. White hats must work closely with vendors to share information about the flaws they find. On the other hand, vendors must significantly shorten the time between discovery and remediation. Consumers will win only when posturing on both sides ends and sincere effort at securing personal, business, and national infrastructure begins.

Marcus Whitney needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 125 designs submitted by 24 freelance designers.
Enterprise LAMP
LAMP is NOT a lighting source. LAMP is an acronym that stands for a set of technologies used to power the most used websites viewed on the Web today (Wikipedia, Yahoo! and Facebook). We are developing a website that will be the destination source of trusted information for chief technology officers, developers and others interested in using LAMP technologies for Fortune 500 businesses. These technologies (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP, Python and Perl) are open-source technologies that provide cutting-edge innovation, cost savings, flexibility and the ability to scale as a company grows. The personality we are trying to convey is extremely professional yet innovative. It is important that this logo convey classiness and trustworthiness.
There will be 3 main audiences. Chief technology officers and CEOs of major companies will turn to our site for guidance about these emerging technologies, while developers who use the technologies will use the site to get reliable, up-to-date information on a highly technical level. Finally, companies that sell these technologies and that train and certify developers will use the site to promote their products and announce product releases.
We like blacks, blues, whites and greys, in part because they do not compete visually with the colors used in the logos of some of our key partners (Red Hat Linux, PHP, Apache Software Foundation, MySQL, Python and Perl...feel free to look at these logos for reference). However, we are open to the use of other colors that do not compete with these logos.
The personality we are trying to convey is extremely professional yet innovative. It is important that this logo convey classiness and trustworthiness.
Please avoid fonts that are "futuristic" as well as overly formal, traditional fonts such as an expensive law firm would use. Sans serif fonts might work best, although we are open to others that are cool yet professional.
The logo should print crisply when only B/W is used. The word LAMP must be capitalized, and the logo should include both the words "Enterprise LAMP." We will need .eps and .psd files as final products.
Finally, please note that we have named our conference "Enterprise LAMP" instead of just "LAMP" to draw attention to the fact that these technologies have matured and become secure enough for very large companies (enterprises) to use them with confidence, whereas they used to be used only by smaller companies that didn't have such stringent requirements. As such, the "Enterprise" part of the logo will indicate something new to senior people in the IT field.
Thank you!

The number of job openings in the U.S. economy climbed to the highest level in seven years, becoming the latest gauge in the labor market to recover the ground its lost during the recession.
Job openings climbed to 4.5 million in April, according to the Labor Department's report on job openings and labor turnover, or JOLTS. The rate of job openings climbed to 3.1% in April from 2.9% in March, also near a seven-year high. In this month's report the hiring and layoff rates were little changed.
During the 18-month recession, which ran from December 2007 to June 2009, the rate of hiring and job openings collapsed while the rate of layoffs surged. The rate of layoffs declined during 2009 and 2010 as the economy regained its footing and has recovered to its pre-recession levels.
Though layoffs have slowed, the rate of hiring in the economy has yet to recover. In April, 4.7 million workers were hired on to new jobs, the same number as in March. Prior to the recession, the level of hiring was often over 5 million a month.
The U.S. economy is characterized by its churn, with millions of Americans switching jobs every month. In a healthy economy the level of job openings, job hiring and voluntary job separation all rise. The labor turnover survey is closely watched by officials at the Federal Reserve for signs that the labor market is nearing complete recovery. Federal Reserve Chairwoman Janet Yellen has pointed to the rate of voluntary quitting in the report as a sign that workers are gaining enough confidence in the economy to take the risk on a new employer.
The quit rate was little changed in this weeks report. with 2.5 million Americans voluntary leaving their job in April, the same rate as in March.
A separate Labor Department report on Friday showed the economy has at last recovered all the jobs lost during the recession, with the total level of employment across the U.S. climbing to a new high. The unemployment rate, still at 6.3%, remains well above its level from before the recession and other barometers of labor market health — such as the participation rate, showing the number of people either working or looking for work, or the number of part-time workers who would like full-time work — remain depressed.Original post via wsj.com

|GDP growth (%)
|Inflation (yearly average, %)
|Budget balance (% GDP)
|Current account balance (% GDP)
|Public debt (% GDP)
(f): forecast
- Geographic proximity to the North American economy
- Membership of NAFTA, OECD, the G20 and the Pacific Alliance
- Substantial industrial base
- Recent improvement in fiscal position
- High dependence on the United States economy; vulnerable to changes in the NAFTA agreement
- Rising criminality rate
- Infrastructure and education weaknesses
- Oil sector undermined by years of underinvestment
Activity accelerated in Q1 2018; further momentum is unlikely
GDP grew by 2% in 2017 and accelerated to 2.3% year-on-year in Q1 2018. This upturn in activity was observed despite a tight monetary policy (policy rate stands at 7.75% per annum), and the uncertainties related to both the presidential elections and the NAFTA renegotiation. The relatively higher outcome in the first quarter of the year was supported by consumption and investments. The former was driven by the impact of decelerating inflation over real wages and by solid remittances from expatriates in the US, while the latter was mainly related to reconstruction works following the earthquakes of September 2017.
Nonetheless, activity might marginally decelerate in the upcoming quarters. According to preliminary figures for the second quarter, seasonally adjusted GDP proxy rose by 1.4% year-on-year in April 2018, down from 2.4% in the previous month and 2.3% in February 2018. On the one hand, robust activity in the United States should continue to support high remittances and a strong demand for Mexican manufactured goods. Moreover, household consumption could also benefit from the intention of the recently elected president Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO) to double minimum wage by 2024. A measure that is however easier said than done. On the other hand, reconstruction works should lose strength in the months ahead and the Nafta renegotiation is not expected to be concluded anytime soon. In fact, more recently US president Donald Trump has raised its protectionist rhetoric.
Manageable twin deficits
Mexico´s current deficit narrowed in the year 2017, driven by higher non-energy trade surplus and smaller income deficit (lower profit repatriation from foreign firms). It dropped from 2.1% of GDP in 2016 to 1.6% in 2017 and further shrunk to 1.3% in Q1 2018. This current account deficit remains comfortably covered by foreign direct investments (1.8% of GDP in 12 - month cumulative until March 2018). It is worth, however, noting, that FDI flows shrunk to 2.2% of GDP in Q4 2017 from 2.7% a year earlier. The uncertainties related to elections and to the Nafta must have taken a toll on foreign investments in the country.
In the meantime, the fiscal policy has remained prudent. Oil revenues account for roughly a third of government ´s revenue. As such, the drop in oil prices has prompted a tightening of the fiscal policy that has been well executed. Fiscal deficit improved to 1.1% of GDP in 2017, from 2.5% of GDP in 2016 and 3.4% in 2015. In 2018, it is however expected to deteriorate somewhat, driven by the higher public expenses related to the reconstruction works following the earthquakes. Nevertheless, the latter is not expected to considerably impact the reduction of the government's debt burden.
Leftist candidate scores landslide victory in presidential elections
On the 1st July 2018, leftist contender Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO) from the Morena party won the presidential election race with 53% of the votes, defeating Ricardo Anaya of the PAN party and José Antonio Meade of the ruling PRI party. In parallel, according to preliminary figures, AMLO's "Together We Will Make History" coalition assured a majority in Congress. AMLO's victory represents the end of Mexico's long-lasting two-party hegemony between the PRI and the PAN party. His landslide victory was mainly credited to the environment of general dissatisfaction with the political class, amid several corruption scandals, as well as to climbing violence in the country.
Although AMLO has been associated with populism – in the past, he positioned himself against the NAFTA agreement, privatizations (notably in the energy sector in late 2013), and the trade opening of Mexico – he has more recently softened his rhetoric. In his victory speech in early July, AMLO pledged to respect contracts, central bank independence, and fiscal discipline. His Finance Minister, Carlos Urzúa, has promised to keep a primary surplus enough to stabilise the current debt level. In addition, the new government has promised to increase public investments and social programmes without raising taxes, with the necessary resources coming from reduced tax evasion and corruption. However, it seems overly optimistic to believe that the government will be able to balance higher public expenses solely via these two measures. Mr Urzúa has said that extra public expenditure would be halted if the corresponding resources are unavailable. Last but not least, concerning the Nafta renegotiation AMLO said he would work to keep Mexico in the NAFTA and seek a frank and friendly dialogue with the United States.
Last update : July 2018
The most commonly used methods of payment in Mexico are cheques, wire transfers and - in some special cases - credit cards.
In Mexico, the documents most frequently related to commercial transaction are invoices, promissory notes, and cheques. Promissory notes and cheques also serve as certificates of indebtedness. Once buyers possess the relevant information, they can proceed to make payments by wire transfer or cheque, with both methods taking approximately ten to fifteen working days. Wire transfers are more common, as cheques can be post-dated, thus presenting the risk that buyers will issue cheques that they cannot finance.
Promissory notes are unconditional promises, in writing, to pay a person a sum of money. In Mexico, this document is normally used as a guarantee of payment from the buyer. It is signed by the legal representative of the buyer - and hence, the debtor – for an amount which is superior to the total amount of the debt.
Corporate payment processes are governed by companies' internal policies. Most companies request supporting documentation from the other party before proceeding with a transaction (e.g. the company's articles of incorporation, or its tax identification, known as the Registro Federal de Contribuyentes).
Invoices are commercial documents issued by sellers to buyers, which list the goods sent or services provided, along with a statement of the sum due. In terms of debt collection, original invoices act as proof of the acceptance of the debt and the establishment of a commercial relationship between the parties. According to commercial and civil laws, the commercial agreement is sealed by two elements: an object (in this case the product or the service), and the price of the object as agreed by the parties. Even in the absence of a written agreement, an invoice provides both of these elements. Invoices are therefore the most effective form of proof in a lawsuit situation, as they show that the parties made a sale agreement and have a reciprocal obligation to pay the price agreed and to deliver the goods or provide the service.
In 2014, the Mexican Tax Authorities (Servicio de Administraci Servicio de Administración Tributaria, SAT) ruled that all invoices must be electronic, with an XML file. They must also be verified by the tax authority system in order to be validated. The tax authority also requests electronic confirmation when the creditor receives payment, along with a receipt in an XML file as legal confirmation. These new requirements entered into force in December 2017. The goal of these changes is to limit the amount of fraud cases and ghost companies, both of which are prevalent in Mexico.
Debt collection
Amicable phase
Before entering into legal proceedings in Mexico, creditors normally attempt to contact their debtors via telephone. If this is unsuccessful, a written letter is sent to the debtor, in which the debtor is notified of the amount of the debt and the creditor's intentions to negotiate payment terms.
The next step is a visit to the debtor by a collection specialist. During this visit, the collection specialist will attempt to develop a more detailed perspective on the debtor's situation. The specialist will endeavour to ascertain if the company is still in business and if it has assets (such as real estate, merchandise or other rights) that could be seized in the event of a legal process. The main purpose, however, of such a visit is to understand why debtors did not pay their invoices within the allotted time frame.
Due to the increasing complexity of Mexico's financial situation, particularly during 2017, amicable settlements have become less and less successful. When creditors initiate collection actions with an amicable phase, it is common for debtor companies to disappear altogether. This means the discontinuation of commercial activities which could potentially enable the payment of sums due. This scenario intensified further towards the end of this year.
When entering into commercial export relationships, companies are advised to ensure that all documentation conforms to Mexican law. A lack of correct information and documentation opens exporters up to the possibility of fraud committed by Mexican companies and reduces the likelihood of successful debt recovery during an amicable phase.
Legal proceedings
There are three types of proceedings which can be initiated against debtors:
Pre-Legal Process (Medios Preparatorios a Juicio Ejecutivo Mercantil)
This pre–legal process takes place when there is an invoice as a proof of the pending payment and of the commercial relationship. Creditors request that the judge obtains a citation from the debtor or its legal representative. He then obtains the confession and acceptance of debt from the debtor, as well as the pending payment. As the confession before the judge is an executive document, the creditor is then able to initiate the 'Summary Business Proceeding' legal process.
This pre–legal process takes approximately two or three months.
Summary Business Proceeding
This legal process takes place when there is a Certificate of Indebtedness (promissory notes, cheques or legal confessions before the judge by the debtor or its legal representative). The process begins with the phase of citation, when the creditor initiates the lawsuit by requesting that the debtor pays the total amount of the debt due. If the debtor does not have sufficient funds, the creditor can request that some of its assets be seized. These assets can include real estate, merchandise, bank accounts, industrial property rights and trademarks, to be used as a guarantee against the total amount of the debt.
Once the assets are seized as a guarantee of the debt, the legal process continues until the judge renders his final resolution. Then, if there is no negotiation or payment, the creditor can initiate the auction of assets to recover the debt.
This legal process takes approximately six to eighteen months, although this can vary from case to case.
Ordinary Business Proceeding
Ordinary Business Proceedings are the most time consuming procedure in Mexican commercial law. They can take place in the absence of a Certificate of Indebtedness, which means that the only proof of a commercial sale between the parties is the commercial agreement with invoices. In this type of process, assets can only be seized as a guarantee of the total amount of the debt when the judge has rendered his final sentence condemning the debtor to make payment. This legal process takes approximately one to two years.
Oral Proceedings
Oral proceedings take place when the total amount of the debt does not exceed EUR 31,856.68. As with 'Ordinary Business Proceedings', assets can only be seized as a guarantee of the total amount of the debt when the judge has rendered his final judgment condemning the debtor to pay the amount due. This process, which was established under commercial law on 11 January 2013, takes approximately four to six months.
On the 2nd May 2017, Mexican congress made a modification which ruled that all commercial disputes be processed through Oral Proceedings, with no limitations on amounts, with effect from the 25th January 2018.
Enforcement of a legal decision
A judgment is enforceable as soon as it becomes final. If the debtor does not comply with the judgment, the creditor can request a mandatory enforcement order from the court, in the form of an attachment order, sale of specific assets, or liquidation of the company. This takes between six months to two years.
Foreign judgments can be enforced through exequatur proceedings. The court will verify that certain requirements are fulfilled, prior to recognising the foreign decision. The court establishes whether the foreign court had jurisdiction to decide on the issue and whether enforcing the decision will not conflict with Mexican law or public policy.
Insolvency proceedings
Out of court proceedings
Debtors with the approval of creditors holding 40% of the debt can constitute a 'pre-packaged' reorganisation agreement. This enables the court to issue an insolvency declaration and declare the company in concurso mercantile.
Liquidation can only be requested by the debtor itself, but the debtor can be placed into liquidation as a result of its failure to submit an acceptable debt restructuration proposal to its creditors through the concurso mercantile proceedings. A liquidator is appointed and given the responsibility for managing the company, selling its assets and distributing the proceeds to the creditors according to their rank.

Niskala Reassigned to Europe
Multiple local Tampa sources are reporting today that Lightning overaged defensive prospect Janne Niskala cleared waivers at noon and will be reassigned to a European team. Niskala had reportedly signed a contract at the beginning of the summer with a European KHL team, prompting the Nashville Predators to trade his rights to the Philadelphia Flyers. The Lightning subsequently acquired Niskala's rights from the Flyers just prior to the beginning of free agency for a 2009 6th round pick, and signed the blueliner to a one-year contract with a European out-clause in case he was unable to make the Tampa roster.
Niskala earned a roster spot in training camp with solid offensive contributions both at even strength and on the power play. But the acquisitions of Lucas Krajicek and Marek Malik to the Lightning's blueline along with the return of Paul Ranger from IR after the team returned from their season openers in Prague relegated Niskala to the pressbox as the team's seventh defenseman. Niskala was reportedly unhappy about being scratched and recently met with Tampa GM Brian Lawton to discuss his future with the club.
With the European leagues on break, Niskala was reassigned to the Swedish National Team, and will eventually join a yet unnamed club in the SM-Liiga. Niskala will be available prior to the trade deadline for recall to Tampa, but would need to clear recall waivers. Niskala scored 1 goal and added 2 assists in 6 games for the Lightning this season.

This article and its discussion page are for working out an OrthodoxWiki policy for the use of media content (i.e. audio and video files).
Sister-site Proposal
One idea would be to create an online repository of publically-available Orthodox Media on a sister site to OrthodoxWiki rather than on this site itself. Each project would have a different, but complementary focus.
This would include free media hosting, at least for compressed audio and video archives, as well as a comprehensive directory of other Orthodox files available on the internet, but that we are not able to include on our site because of copyright reasons.
As the project groes, bandwidth and hard drive space could become very expensive. Here, we could accept donations or work out some kind of sponsorship program.
One model for us could be the Wikimedia Commons (http://commons.wikimedia.org). MediWiki is under rapid development and should soon have more robust support for media files than it already has now.
Thinking this over a little more, I think this would be a great direction to move. Not just great, but practical. Things are also moving so fast, so I'm sure there will be many more great tools coming in the future. Getting things together now would basically enable us to be strategically placed for the future -- to build a library and strong user base in anticipation of a time, very soon to come, when this stuff will become more fully integrated into people's homes and lives.

OurMedia and Drupal
This proposal also has similarities with http://ourmedia.org/, which is using Drupal (www.drupal.org) as a base. This would take a little more effort to cutomize for our needs and would probably have a higher maintenance requirement. It's an impressive project, however, and it might be possible to likewise integrate something into the Internet Archive (http://www.archive.org/ - used by Our Media).
Besides the links above, I would refer those who are interested in how such a thing could be set up to these discussions on Drupal.org:

- http://drupal.org/node/18392
- http://drupal.org/node/31432 - Re: DTV (http://dtvmac.com/)
- http://drupal.org/node/25274
Besides OurMedia, another media site using Drupal is http://www.cctvcambridge.org/.
Drupal might be a better development platform - or at least, it would make available some things that aren't yet possible on MediaWiki. Both are under extensive development and are be used by groups much bigger than we'll ever be.
I'd be willing to help with this kind of project, but I am pretty certain it would take more time and knowledge than I'd have to give it. We'd need a real developer to help get this up and running.

HELENA, Mont. (AP) -- Montana lawmakers were told Tuesday that new state health clinics appear to be helping reduce costs.
The state opened a Helena clinic for employees last summer, an idea championed by former Gov. Brian Schweitzer. Another clinic was later opened in Billings, and more are planned in places with a large number of state employees.
The state pays a per-patient fee to CareHere of Brentwood, Tenn., which won the contract to manage the clinics. The state argues the strategy is cheaper than paying for the profit and overhead of private doctors through a traditional health plan.
Employees are given an incentive with no copays or deductibles when visiting the clinic.
Russ Hill, the administrator overseeing the clinic for Montana's Health Care and Benefits Division, said the state's aging workforce has meant medical cost increases. He told the interim State Administration and Veterans' Affairs committee that the clinics are making it easier for employees to see a primary care provider, which helps to identify problems earlier.
Hill said health care costs last year only increased 3 percent, compared to a 7 percent increase the year before. A similar drop is expected this year. The state says it has also tightened its pharmacy plan, implemented new disease-management programs, put incentives into place and made other changes.
The clinics also have resulted in a drop of about half in the per-visit cost of seeing a doctor, he said.
State Sen. Dave Lewis, R-Helena, said he is not yet convinced the clinics have helped reduce overall costs. And he said it could have an adverse effect on doctors' offices elsewhere in Helena who won't be seeing the patients and may be forced to charge more for some procedures.
"Their feeling is that you are sort of picking the low-hanging fruit, in terms of inoculations and the easy stuff," Lewis said. "Their concern, from the perspective of the local health care delivery system, is you are taking some money that is going to have to be recovered in higher fees elsewhere."
Hill said a more detailed financial analysis will be available later this year that takes a more complete look at the costs and benefits of the new clinics. But he expects it will show improvements.
"In addition, we know we have reduced expensive emergency room visits, and urgent care. We are seeing these long-term costs decrease," Hill said.
Estimates prepared for the clinic's opening last year said it could save more than $100 million over five years.
