John A. Fullan
May 19, 1925 - Sept. 20, 2013
CLINTON — John A. Fullan, age 88, of Clinton, passed away Friday, September 20, 2013 at his home.
A Mass will be celebrated at 10:30 a.m. on Wednesday, September 25, 2013 at Prince of Peace Parish. Visitation will be from 4:00 to 8:00 p.m. Tuesday at the Pape Funeral Home. Burial will be in St. Irenaeus Calvary Cemetery. Casket bearers will be Jon DeMong, Matthew Fullan, Jesse Fullan, Aaron Fullan, Sean Fullan and Shanelle Jackson.
John was born in McGlaughlin, SD on May 19, 1925, the youngest of the four sons of James and Florence (McDermott) Fullan. He attended St. Patrick's parochial school and graduated from Delmar High School in 1942. John married Audrey Elleson in San Francisco, CA on January 20, 1951. He graduated from Clinton Junior College in 1954.
John enlisted in the U.S. Navy during W.W. II, in December 1942, at the age of 17, following his three older brothers. He served in the South Pacific for three years from Tarawa to Iwo Jima and engaged in many amphibious operations.

John worked for Standard Oil for 20 years, and then became an independent oil jobber, operating Fullan Oil Company until he sold and retired in 1984. During his retirement, John began studying his genealogy. He became known as "Iowa John" in genealogy circles, and was a great resource to anyone looking to find their ancestors.
John is survived by his wife, Audrey; children Kathy (Jim) DeMong, Mike (Char) Fullan, James (Debe) Fullan and Mary Jo Fullan all of Clinton and Patricia (Zim) Jackson of Glendale, AZ; 14 grandchildren and 6 great grandchildren.

Fans will have to wait to see Plaxico Burress' return to the gridiron, as an ankle injury will keep him out of the Jets' preseason opener.
Burress had an MRI on Friday and said the result was, "just a classic tweak, a classic sprain. Nothing serious."
Head coach Rex Ryan told Burress he wouldn't play Monday night against the Texans. Burress was asked if he lobbied Ryan to play.
"Oh, without question, because I was expecting to play on Monday until this morning, until he told me he wasn't," Burress responded. "I was anxious to get out there with my guys and get my feet wet and get into some action."
Ryan said he wants Burress to be at 100 percent before he plays.
The former Giants receiver hasn't played an NFL game since 2008 after spending 22 months in prison.

SEATTLE—Even in the persistent mist and intermittent sunshine, Seattle looks lovely with its evergreen trees lining the horizon and the ocean in the distance, a reminder just how flat and boring Chicago can be.
The tugboats and stacked shipping containers and boom cranes of the industrial corridor look strangely exotic to this Midwestern boy. OK, so I don't get out much.
the Bears-Seahawks game from the House that Phillip Daniels Helped Build. That's according to Daniels, of course.
» The latest on traffic, delays and road construction delivered to your mobile phone. Click to sign up to receive text alerts!
The Bears are 1-4 and the Seahawks are 4-1. Symmetry rules.
The 10-point spread on this game is the only double-digit line on the board this week. But the real question is when the multiple-concussed Chris Chandler will be knocked out of the game. The over-under up here is mid-second quarter, which means the dawning of the Rex Grossman era starts today. Maybe.
Marty Booker and Anthony Thomas are out today. Translation: With the only two working parts on the shelf, it'll be a long day for the Bears' offense.
We'll have an approximation of football soon
Now this is how you build a new stadium. This place is awesome. The trellises on the roof are something out an English football ground. Brilliant! Cheeky! Actually, I'm not certain I know what a trellis is. But whatever you call the support structure of the roof here, it's cool.
Mike Brown calls tails and it turns up heads. This one's over folks.
First quarter
The Seahawks will receive as two pip-squeaks from the pre-game pee-wee football game trot out to hand the ball and tee to referee Tony Corrente. Game on. Edinger's kick is short as usual; Maurice Morris takes it at the 15 and the Seahawks will start at the 42. Matt Hasselback hits former Bear Bobby Engram wide open for a 15-yard gain. Do the Bears ever show up early? Shaun Alexander picks up a couple off right tackle. Alexander then catches a screen and gets 7. Third and a long 2. They're short. Josh Brown's 50-yard kick is wide right. According to some new rule the Bears will start at the spot the kick. As opposed to what, I don't know.
Chandler changes the play at the line and then fumbles the snap. Sweet start. Dez White, today's No. 1 receiver with Booker out, catches an 8-yard pass. David Terrell jumps before the snap and we've got a third-and-11 on the first series. Anthony Simmons comes on a linebacker blitz and plants Chandler into the ersatz grass. Grossman start warming up that arm. The first of what promises to be many Brad Maynard punts goes 50 yards.
Love the TV timeouts. Just love 'em.
Alexander up the middle for 3. A Seahawk is hurt, which means another TV timeout. Darrel Jackson catches a ball for 10 yards. Engram catches another one for 7 yards and is hit hard by Brian Urlacher and Lance Briggs. Urlacher had some words for his former teammate. Alexander busts one for 20 yards. The Bears can't stop the pass or the run early. Hasselbeck takes a shot at Jackson down the near sideline but it's out of bounds. Alexander runs for a few more, tackled by "Urlicker," according to the pressbox announcer. Oh, no. There's a receiver un-covered. Bears call timeout. Meanwhile, the Bears have -2 total yards on offense. The defense isn't doing much better. Michael Haynes shows up with a coverage sack for a loss of a yard. The Bears will take a sack anyway they can. Seahawks punt and R.W. McQuarters makes a fair catch at the 12.
Phillip Daniels just walked to the locker room. There are some major issues with the game clock. Let's go, people. It's a new stadium.
Adrian Peterson runs up the middle for not much, maybe 4 yards. Holding on the defense. First down Bears. Peterson is gobbled up at the line. Chandler hits Peterson for a short pass and Peterson fails to break a tackle. Gain of 5. Linebacker blitz again and Chandler is nailed. But he got it off to David Terrell for 13 yards and the first. That looked like a real offensive play there. Perhaps, the Bears' first of the season. Chandler dumps a quicky to White and the Bears get 15 more for a face mask penalty on Marcus Trufant. The Bears goes five wide--and Chandler runs it up the middle. Did John Shoop just call a Kordell Stewart play? What the? Third and 3. Five receivers wide again and Chandler throws over the wrong shoulder of of Desmond Clark. Edinger comes on for a 50-yarder and it's good.
Bears 3, Seahawks 0
That is the Bears' sixth first-quarter point all year.
Ahmad Merritt is down. He fell on his head covering the kick. He's up and walking.

Lockport Union-Sun & Journal
Lockport Union-Sun & Journal — MEDINA — The extraordinary undertaking that bringing a group of world-class musicians to a small town is one that requires the hard work of volunteers.
Members of the Orleans Renaissance Group met Saturday to discuss the final plans for the upcoming concert by Anonymous 4, a renowned quartet that will perform medieval-era music April 4 at St. Mary's Church.
Planning a big event is nothing new for ORG, which has brought the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra and other large choirs to St. Mary's, but its always a challenge.
Everything from the quartet's accommodations — set — to the choice of on-stage side tables — less certain — was still up for discussion. ORG members left the gatheare confident they can pull off a major show.
"It's all down to the final things we need to bring the evening together," ORG Vice President Chris Busch said. "The tickets, bringing the group into town, preparing the venue and reception."
One thing in ORG's favor is the venue, which will not require microphones for the performers or a large setup to spread the quartet's voices.
"The good thing is the concert can use the church's natural acoustics," back-up stage manager Ric Jones said of St. Mary's resonant atmosphere. "The way the church was built draws a bright, alive sound."
Anonymous 4 will perform "Marie & Marion: Motets and Songs from the Montpellier Codex," a collection of French and Latin chants and love songs. Less anyone in the audience not be as well-versed in those classical pieces, ORG is also putting together a program complete with translations.
ORG Administrator Lynne Menz said the process of building sponsorships for the event are going well, with $5,500 received and another $1,800 promised.
Ticket sales have not hit a crescendo, but Busch said pre-sales were strong and a flurry of activity is expected. A special deal for ORG members is being planned, but $40 tickets for non-members can be purchased at eggstreet.org and at local merchants.
"We've sold this venue out in the past for the BPO — this is in that league," Busch said. "(Anonymous 4) are internationally-known, it's a big deal."
The event is crucial to ORG's efforts, which include the renovation of the Bent's Opera House in downtown Medina. Anonymous 4's concert will raise both funding for the organization but also build on its tradition of connecting a historic village with history-making occasions.
"People in the chorale music scene are very excited for this concert," Jones, the music director of the Genesee Chorale, said. "It's truly a once-in-a-lifetime event."Contact reporter Jim Krencik at 798-1400, ext. 6327.

IBM's Universal Database
Installing DB2 is made easy by an installation and setup utility called DB2 Installer. This utility will install all required packages for DB2, create instances for DB2 databases and administration support, and configure your DB2 server for communications. The instructions in this section assume you do not change any of the defaults presented by DB2 Installer, unless noted in the steps below.
You will usually run into display problems if you start DB2 Installer from a command window in your Linux distribution's graphical interface. You can refresh the view of DB2 Installer at any time by pressing CTRL-L. To avoid most potential display problems, I recommend running the DB2 Installer in a virtual console session outside of your operating system's graphical interface. You can shift between the virtual console session and the graphical interface session on most Linux distributions by pressing CTRL-ALT-F1 and CTRL-ALT-F7. Refer to your Linux documentation for more details.
To quickly install DB2, perform the following steps:
Log on to the system as a user with root authority
Mount the DB2 product CD-ROM by entering the following command:
mount -t iso9660 -o ro /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
where /mnt/cdrom is the mount point of the CD-ROM. Note that even if you are installing DB2 on a workstation that is running TurboLinux version 3.6 or Red Hat Linux version 6.1, you still need to mount the CD-ROM. The image created by the install fix links to the DB2 CD-ROM. For more information, refer to your fix's readme.txt file.
Change focus to the mount point of the CD-ROM. Note that if you were installing DB2 on a workstation that is running TurboLinux version 3.6 or Red Hat Linux version 6.1, you would change to the directory where you created the image on your workstation. For more information, refer to your fix's readme.txt file.
Enter the ./db2setup command to start the DB2 Installer program. The Install DB2 V6.1 window will open. The contents of this window vary with respect to the DB2 product you are installing. Figure 1 is the window displayed when you are installing DB2 Workgroup Edition for Linux.
tab key to move the selector bar, and the ENTER key to select or deselect an option. For more information or assistance during the installation of DB2, select Help. From the product list, select the DB2 product you want to install. For this example, select DB2 UDB Workgroup Edition, then OK. The Create DB2 Services window will open.
Select the "Customize" option beside the DB2 product you want to install. For our example, select the "Customize" option beside the DB2 UDB Workgroup Edition option.
Select the "Java Support" and the "Control Center" components.
Select the "Create a DB2 Instance" option. Enter a password for this user and verify it by retyping this password in the field provided.
Select the "Properties" option.
Select the "Create a Sample Database" for a DB2 instance then OK.
Select OK.
A window will open that asks you to create a user that will be used to execute user-defined functions (UDFs) and stored procedures. For this example, you do not need to know anything about, or use, this user. Simply enter a password for this user, verify it and select OK. You are returned to the DB2 Create Services window. For more information on UDFs or stored procedures, refer to the "Administration Guide".
Select the "Create the Administration Server" option. Enter a password for this user as well and select OK.
A pop-up window will open telling you the DB2 system's name for this workstation. Select OK. You are again returned to the Create DB2 Services window.
Select OK, then Continue, and finally, OK to begin the installation. When the installation completes, respond to the DB2 Installer's prompts to close this utility.
You are finished all the steps necessary to install DB2!
Now that you have finished your installation, let's go through a quick sample query to prove to you that this powerful database is actually alive and running on your system.
To verify your installation, perform the following steps:
Log on to the system as the db2inst1 user. If you use the su command to do this, ensure that you enter this command with the - option; for example, su - db2inst1.
Enter the following command to connect to the sample database created by DB2 Installer:
db2 connect to sample
You should receive output that is similar to the following:
Database Connection Information Database server = DB2/LINUX 6.1.0 SQL authorization ID = DB2INST1 Local database alias = SAMPLE
Enter the following command to select a list of all employees who belong to department 20 in the staff table:
db2 "select * from staff where dept = 20"
Note that you must enter this command using the quotation marks so that your operating system does not confuse the SQL statement with a command. You should receive output that is similar to that shown in Table 1.
End the database connection by entering the following command: db2 terminate.
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

The New Haven Register recently reported on the rising crime in the southern part of Hamden. The report characterized the crime as follows: Suspicious activity in parking lots, gunfire, prostitution, people being shot, drug trafficking and graffiti. It is a fundamental human right that our citizens should feel safe and secure in their own homes. Clearly, this is not the case in Southern Hamden. We cannot ignore, minimize or rationalize the plight of our neighbors to the south. For too long, this and prior administrations have given lip service to this growing and menacing threat.
So how did the administration respond: 1) Stay active and continue to report suspicious activity 2) Complaints will be logged 3) Police will continue to work on resident concerns, 4) People should start "snitching" and 5) Have no worries about retaliation. Now I ask you if this was your neighborhood does this response make you feel more secure? Would you feel safe in your home or neighborhood? Is this the kind of response that makes you believe the town is doing what is necessary to bring the situation under control? I don't think so.
This is the same old rhetoric that our neighbors have come to expect - much talk and little action. I do not blame the hardworking men and women on the police force, they are carrying on as directed by the administration. What is needed is decisive action. Imam, Abdul-Majid Karim Hasan, said that "there has been more crime and loitering in the area compared to previous years, and asked whether surveillance cameras could be placed on utility poles". This is something I support and should be done without delay.
The town responded to this suggestion by saying "cameras would be expensive for the town to purchase." Just think about this for a moment. Mayor Jackson can place cameras at a garbage dump, but is unwilling to place surveillance equipment where our residents are in danger. You be the judge, taxes continue to increase, services continue to diminish, fees are becoming a standard practice, security has been compromised, education now cost $100M plus annually. Can we continue to support this level of incompetence?
The citizens of the southern part of town have spoken. Is anyone listening? This is our problem requiring a town wide response. This administration has been unwilling or incapable of responding to simple cry for help!

Tuesday, November 6, 2012
Freshman U.S. Rep. Mike Pompeo has defeated Democratic challenger Robert Tillman to represent the 4th House District in south-central Kansas.
The conservative Republican incumbent campaigned on cutting government spending and repealing the federal health care law. He bucked the rest of the state's all-Republican delegation with his support for ending wind energy tax credits.
Pompeo was elected in 2010 to his first term and was re-elected on Tuesday.
Tillman spent 30 years working on social issues, including 24 years as a court services officer. Tillman supports raising taxes on the top 1 percent of wage earners to help balance the budget.
The last Democrat to hold the 4th District seat was Dan Glickman, who lost to Tiahrt in 1994.

News and notes on the restaurant scene from dining critic Carol Deptolla
Summer opening for Ian's Pizza downtown
Ian's Pizza, the Madison-based, East Coast-style pizzeria, is remodeling the former What's Fresh space off Water St. for its second Milwaukee location.
An employee said it could be open by midsummer. The pizzeria, at 146 E. Juneau Ave., will be near the Water St. entertainment district, convenient for the post-bar crowd; Ian's keeps late hours (3 a.m. on the weekends), and pizza is sold by the slice.
Ian's has been issued a building permit for nearly $100,000 worth of work on the space, including new restrooms.
What's Fresh, a longtime sandwich shop, closed at the end of 2011.
Ian's, which has received national recognition for its mac-and-cheese pizza and other idiosyncratic toppings, opened at 2035 E. North Ave. two years ago. The first restaurant opened in Madison over 10 years ago.

CNET's Scott Stein takes a quick spin with Panasonic's 20-inch Windows 8 tablet prototype that has a 4K display.
The flash-based Panasonic HDC-TM700 and its hard-disk sibling, the HDC-HS700, stand out for their low-light video quality and broad set of manual controls. However, while the TM700 is very attractively priced for its class, the HS700 is not, and not worth the price premium unless you absolutely need the hard disk.
A discussion of the photo quality of the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GH1.
After its recent exit from the high-end plasma TV market, Panasonic emphasizes how it will adapt its technology, including 4K camera and display expertise, for business customers.
Prime lenses with 15mm and 135mm focal lengths join Carl Zeiss' CP.2 lineup of crossover lenses that can be used on video, cine, or SLR cameras.
Panasonic enters the Flip-dominated minicamcorder market a couple of years late, plus announces another HD model to compete with its other two $499 models.
You've just dropped your new tablet. Time slows as hundreds of quids-worth of consumer tech plunges to its floor-related doom. Unless it's a Pansonic Toughbook tablet, that is.
The company will be offering a modified version of its TM700 camcorder with a 3D lens converter.
LG is touting its line of 2012 plasma TVs, including the flagship PM9700 series, as delivering black levels that are 35 percent to 40 percent deeper than the company's previous generation.
We got our hands on the new high-definition Panasonic HDC-SD100 and HDC-HS100 camcorders with their 3MOS system and handy manual rings

Once upon a time...
Leo LaPorte used to be just another daytime radio host, but he ended up specializing in tech talk radio and TV shows, which led to a gig on TechTV at the turn of the century. That ended after a reorg, and while he continued to do radio and TV projects, he also started dabbling in the then new art of podcasting. His podcasting sideline quickly grew into a profitable business that outgrew its original studio and moved into a new million dollar studio last year, producing, streaming, and uploading up to 40 hours of content a week from http://www.twit.tv , including productions for other podcast studios. Also has a live camera on between shows, as well as a 2nd 24/7 silent monitor cam on random parts of the studio.
So, I've been catching content from the site for the past couple of years, starting out with podcasts, then moving to video and audio streams. I like many of the shows, but get tired of Leo himself. Wondering if there were many others here who either like him or don't like him.
Electric taco.
He is neither tired nor wired. But I've only been catching his podcasts for about the past year. Still, I maybe hear him once or twice a week. He's got a pretty solid stable of folks that provide a variety of viewpoints.
Sometimes, he seems a bit wishywashy. There've been times I've heard him say something and think "I swear you took the opposite position last week.". And that doesn't apply to times when he plays devil's advocate. He tends to be soft on guests, too.
But as far as an overall stable of folks with differing viewpoints, I think the TWIT folks do a good job.
I haven't followed his career or projects but on a personal level I found him to be a very nice guy. We met maybe 3 times - the first and last were at Comdex when he was doing the ZDTV thing. I got an autographed picture of Kate & Leo the first time. The middle time was at a Battlebots competition, here in Vegas during the week of Comdex. Leo came in to watch for awhile, and then approached my wife and I to chat (We were away from most of the spectators, eating dinner in the raised dining area at one end of the venue. Best 'dinner & a show' ever!). He was very interested in our opinions on the possibilities of Battlebots on TV. ZDTV was pursuing a deal with them at the time. By the next time I saw him, Battlebots had aired on Comedy Central, who of course ruined it. I asked him what went on and he said they had just simply been outbid.
Nice guy.
I don't have any issues with Laporte in general, I have a generally favorable opinion of the man and his work, but I have little use for his shows.
I just never really caught on to the "netcast" craze, I'd really rather read my tech news. Every time I've tried listening I've found myself bored quickly, it's just so slow-paced and conversational. The information density is far too low.
I can basically get 10x the information on the same set of topics by reading the Ars Technica front page for 10 minutes, than I'd get from listening to an hours worth of podcasts.
After hearing a rumor that they were using Techmeme.com to source stories for TWiT, I started skimming it too. The format's useful - they aggregate like stories and opinion articles. But then I started reading allegations that a lot of Silicon Valley journalists were turning into VC backers, and using their blogs as bully pulpits to push their opinons, and that some of them were tight with Techmeme and with other major bloggers. So I started getting turned off on that.
I guess never having met him, I can't say how nice Leo is or not. From what I've seen he's a great host, but not exactly a great studio head. Has good brains around him though.

He does a short segment with Bill Handel every Friday morning just before eight, which I catch on my way to work. I also listen to his show on the weekends sometimes if I'm in the car at the time.
I like him, and find him to be informative, but I can't take him for very long. Especially when he takes callers. But then again, I usually can't take most radio shows when they have listeners call in.
He used to host a Tech TV show, The Screen Savers. He now hosts a weekend radio show, The Tech Guy ( http://youtu.be/S0zt4opqL18 ). He's not entirely serious ( http://youtu.be/7p6xEdRy2Rw ), has interesting guests ( http://youtu.be/LatM4QJux74 ), ( http://youtu.be/IsV-lgnAjps ), unscrupulous rivals ( http://youtu.be/kEihhjJC9jI ), and employees whom he disagrees with ( http://youtu.be/iHQ0fLN63UE ). Occasionally, he gets caught trying to pull a fast one, like doing a live video stream from an Apple Keynote.

People here talk about him every now and then, but I've never seen or heard a single thing of his.
I think a lot of his success is due to his very expensive microphone and significant audio processing. He sounds like those DJs on those "adult contemporary rock" radio stations. Like a poster earlier mentioned, I want to read my tech, not listen to some glitzy overproduced soundtrack.
It's an acquired taste. I found him when I went looking for decent tech podcasts, and found him by accident. He does have a techie following, big enough for his purposes, though not as well known as say, David Pogue. Who isn't that well known either.
I listen to him everyday. Really enjoy all the twit shows.

Yeah, he does that more than he should. Letting secrets leak that is. There was a housewarming party at the studio that was streamed, but as the night wore on the camera was deliberately aimed away from his dirty dancing .
I remember him from the TechTV days and as the industry was in its relative infancy, us tech nerds were very much more on our own than now. He was interesting to listen to and watch but I remember a recurring feeling that when he covered a topic he used a broad brush and often left things out for the sake of brevity and/or showmanship. Those things, some minor and some major, meant that if you embarked on a task he recommended, at some point, you were SOL. I cannot give an example (this being so long ago) but that was my impression.
I like TWiT and TWiG. I always pay attention to Ars articles mentioned.
Leo is okay, his guests tend to be better as do the other hosts.
I remember first seeing him on TechTV. Really enjoyed the Screen Savers. I eventually found him again at TWiT and used to listen to the podcast every week. These days I'll only listen if I've already listened to everything else. At times TWiT seems to be a bunch of grumpy old men talking about how things used to be.
These days, he tries to get John C. Dvorak on as much as possible. If there's ever a grumpy old man, that's him. The current list of repeat invitees include a number of other grumpy old men and women as well. They also have a grumpy young lady, which is always refreshing.
I agree with ClydeJr on This Week in Tech. But they have several other podcasts I really like: Windows Weekly, Tech News Today, MacBreak Weekly, iPad today, Frame Rate, Triangulation often has interesting guests, and a couple of others from time to time. All About Android was good when I was more into Android devices. They have a couple of new shows in development, too.
I try to balance things out with 5by5 podcasts and Bagel Tech (soon to be British Tech) podcasts.
Generally, I like podcasts that are more informal, informative, and with some sense of humor. CNET and NPR tech podcasts bore the hell out of me and seem to be rote readings of this week's tech news. Very little depth or opinion. I tried The Verge for a while but really couldn't stomach them.
Hopefully, Ars will have a podcast soon. They've been working on one, and it would be great to have that as another option. Jacqui Cheng giving the smackdown on all things tech! Booyah!
I enjoyed him with Patrick Norton back in the day...i listen to him once in a while now.
I heard eJacqui as a guest on TWiT once. She had a hard time getting a word in edgewise, but I think the problem was that she was at a disadvantage because she was calling in, and it was hard to break into the flow. That was a few years ago.
Wired. Reading my tech news while driving long distances- not an option.
Live Tech News Today in my company car stereo (via iPhone) while zipping down the highway- very nice.
I could swear he was involved with another show that I watched in the mid-90s, but I do not see it in the list on his Wiki page. He was interesting at times, but I felt his show fell short when it came to details. He would introduce a topic that really sounded interesting, and then give it the five minute treatment. I felt the same about Call for Help and Screen Savers, and so I have not followed anything recent that he has been working on.

I see that as an endemic problem, really.
It's a different sphere, of course, but I'm on the board of our local PASS (Professional Association for SQL Server) chapter, and this is a challenge every month. Those of us on the board and some members are really looking for deep dives into technology, but any individual topic tends to only appeal to a subset of that subset (if you don't write ETL packages, a deep look into SSIS programming isn't of interest to you). Broad topics at a high level, however, end up appealing to most people (if you use SQL Server, it's good to know something about BI, for example).
So we end up with speakers presenting breadth more often than speakers presenting depth, because that way we keep more members engaged more of the time. I imagine you face a very similar problem when producing a tech podcast, and I'm not sure how you solve it.
I always thought Leo was kind of a chump.
He appeals to the self-proclaimed "power users" at most companies. The upper-management guys with the power to expense every gadget/software they feel like playing with, and to bypass the normal IT approval process.
Basically, the guys that are skipping their weekly round of afternoon golf today, and coming into work to show off their "new iPad". Which they preordered. Using company funds.
^^^ And demanding the IT people integrate them, with no warning at all?
Also, Leo is currently the tech demo guy on the Live with Kelly show now.
Once upon a time, TechTV used to be this thing that made my life hell, because at the time I was working end-user support and every once in a while some asshole user trying to show off would waylay me or one of my coworkers while we were elbows-deep in their computer and couldn't escape, and they'd drop some ridiculous bullshit like, "So, I was watching the Screen Savers last night, and they said that that the internet uses D-C-H-P for T-P-C-I-P, which is a network technology for allocating mack addresses. It's some real high performance stuff. I was wondering if you guys have heard of it, and if we're using it on the network here at work, because everything is always so slow. Oh, don't delete that--I use that Bonzi Buddy thing all the time."
And then the Screen Savers was cancelled, and I howled with joy, because fuck that shit.
Meh, he just ran an expensive gaming show into the ground, one that was ill conceived in almost every aspect. It had a lot of great talent, but was ill managed and promoted. It could have been saved with a grass roots effort, had it been known one was needed before the last episode. I think he's already peaked, and is on his way down.
He serves a purpose, and many of his shows have great co hosts, but I need more out of my entertainment, and can get my tech news faster by skimming the same online sources he and his staff do.

Myspace is one of those social networking sites that has fallen behind online as others prospered and took the lead. So, does that mean that Myspace is dead? It depends on what you think of it.
Sure, the site has gone through some pretty rough times over the past few years, but believe it or not, people still use it. Here's a brief look at how Myspace started, where it started to fall flat, and what it's doing to try and get back on top.
Myspace: The Most Visited Social Network from 2005 to 2008
Myspace was only launched in 2003, so it's barely even a decade old. Friendster gave inspiration to the founders of Myspace, and the social network was officially sent live on the web in January of 2004. After its first month online, over one million people had already signed up. By November of 2004, that number grew to 5 million.
By 2006, Myspace was being visited more times than Google Search and Yahoo! Mail, becoming the most visited website in the United States. In June of 2006, it was reported that Myspace was responsible for nearly 80 percent of all traffic related to social networking sites.
Myspace's Influence over Music and Pop Culture
Myspace has largely been known as a social networking site for musicians and bands that they can use to show off their talent and connect with fans. Artists could upload their complete mp3 discographies and could even sell their music from their profiles.
In 2008, a major redesign was launched for the music pages, which brought along a whole bunch of new features. During the time that Myspace was most popular, it served to be a valuable tool for musicians. Some might even admit that it still is one today.
Losing to Facebook
Most of us saw how Facebook quickly grew into the Internet behemoth that it is today. In April of 2008, both Facebook and Myspace were attracting 115 million unique global visitors on a monthly basis, with Myspace still winning in the U.S. alone. In December of 2008, Myspace experienced its peak U.S. traffic amount with 75.9 million unique visitors.
As Facebook grew stronger, Myspace underwent a series of layoffs and redesigns as it tried to redefine itself as a social entertainment network from 2009 and beyond. By March 2011, it was estimated that the site had dropped from attracting 95 million to 63 million unique visitors over the past 12 months.
The Struggle to Innovate
Although several factors and events likely triggered the decline of Myspace, one of the biggest arguments is that it never figured out how to innovate well enough to keep up with the massive social networking sites that now dominate the web like Facebook and Twitter.
Both Facebook and Twitter have continuously rolled out major redesigns and new features over the past several years that have helped reshape the social web for the better, whereas Myspace kind of remained stagnant for the most part and never really made a true comeback—despite its effort to roll out several redesign solutions .
But Is Myspace Really Dead?
In the minds of many, Myspace is kind of unofficially dead. It's certainly not as popular as it once was, and it's lost a ton of money. Most people have moved on to other popular social networks like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and others. For artists, video sharing platforms like YouTube and Vimeo have grown into massive social community sites that can be used to get huge exposure.
Officially, Myspace is still far from beind dead. If you go visit myspace.com, you'll see that it is very much still alive. In fact, an August 2012 study from comScore revealed that Myspace still has a 12.7-percent social networking reach in the U.S, which is about 28 million users. It's right behind Pinterest at 11.3 percent, (25 million users) and of course Facebook is the largest with a reach of 69.2 percent (152 million users).
About 28 million users still use Myspace. It's probably safe to say that the site is not dead yet, and it's too soon to say where it's fate lies.
Myspace Relaunch Plans
In September of 2012, Justin Timberlake tweeted a link to a video featuring a completely new Myspace platform redesign. The social networking site has fought a long battle against innovation and every other competing site, so it will be interesting to see if its future plans are really enough to bring it back.
Until then, check out the social networking sites that are totally dominating the web today.

Hopkins appears on the way to transforming its junior highs into International Baccalaureate schools.
While the School Board didn't vote on the idea Thursday, most of the directors praised the program—including Irma McIntosh Coleman, one of two directors who voted against the idea in March 2012.
"I was one of those naysayers. … I really did not think that I could sit back, look and think that I could support that," McIntosh Coleman told the teachers presenting the proposal. "But the more I look and hear you, we realize the impact of people like you in our buildings and our classrooms that truly make that difference."
IB's Middle Years Programme provides an enhanced curriculum for grades six through 10, although Hopkins would only offer Middle Years at its junior highs. Started in Geneva, Switzerland, the program emphasizes "global mindedness" and a broad curriculum with eight components—including requirements for all students to take arts courses, physical education and a second language.
The 2012-13 school year has been an exploratory year in which the district has investigated whether IB could work with junior high schedules and how staff and parents feel about it.
While the existing junior high schedule would not mesh with the program, district models determined that there are three options that could work, said Nik Lightfoot, the district's director of administrative services. The recommended option is a 16-credit, alternative-day block schedule.
Although some teachers were skeptical in the beginning, there was overwhelming excitement by the end of the process, said the two lead teachers in the process, North Junior High language arts teacher Angela Wilcox and West Junior High science teacher Todd Roudabush.
And most of the more than 100 parents who attended informational sessions were very interested and excited, West Junior High Principal Shirley Gregoire said. She added that three parents even told her their children would stay in Hopkins if the district moves forward with IB.
The push to encourage students to stay in the district was a recurring theme of the night. At the beginning of Thursday's meeting, the district announced enrollment had decreased by 81 students since Oct. 1—a $500,000 hit to the district if those numbers carry through to next year.
A 2011 survey found that support for an IB program ranged from 70 percent to 82 percent. Notably, support was highest among Hopkins parents who open enroll their children out of Hopkins schools. It was lowest among parents who live in the district and send their kids to Hopkins schools.
The $307,500 annual cost of the program was a concern—similar to how costs were a concern during discussion that same night on elementary Spanish instruction. Director Wendy Donovan, who voted against pursuing IB in March 2012, asked whether the junior high could make it work if they didn't receive any money.
"Instead of adding, we need to reconfigure," she said. "There's not a lot of new dollars."
Gregoire said it would be a challenge to do without increased funding.
Yet IB received far less criticism than the elementary Spanish proposal—and Gregoire, Roudabush and Wilcox were unabashedly enthusiastic.
The board will next take a preliminary vote at its March 21 budget meeting on whether to become an IB program—followed by a final vote in May. If the board does decide to pursue IB, the district will petition International Baccalaureate for approval. If that happens, the junior highs would become IB schools in the 2014-15 school year.

Work on three trail bridges is closing parts of the MoPac East Trail into early March. The trail is maintained by the Lower Platte South Natural Resources District.
Pilings and abutments on the bridges will be repaired and barricades will be erected in the vicinity of work while it is being done.

Work will move to two bridges northeast of Elmwood, between Havelock Avenue and 310th Street sometime late next week.
The Cassgram reports NRD Resources Coordinator Dan Schulz said, "The work is being done during cold weather to minimize inconvenience to trail users."
The progress of the work and resulting trail closings will be continually updated on the NRD website, lpsnrd.org.

Works greatPosted December 9, 2013
I have used this unit several times now. It heats my steambox easily and costs me less than twenty cents per hour to operate. I can use it in my basement workshop without having to worry about open flames and homemade equipment. I built a steambox similar to the one described in the included plan. The plans recommend installing weatherstripping on the door. If you don't, too much steam may escape. Not just any weatherstripping will do! The foam stuff will not work. I cut inch and a half wide strips from a thorn-resistant bicycle inner tube [thorn resistant tubes are much thicker than standard tubes] and fastened them to the inside of the door with galvanized staples. This works very well. Don't forget to drill other holes in the box for steam flow and drainage.
Works WonerfulPosted November 26, 2013
I wish I had purchassed it a year ago. I give it 5 stars

I got mine from a friend and after a meltdown of the PVC tube I was using, I utilized a 5 foot by 6" dia. section of galvanized ductwork that with end caps and a slope, work flawlessly and is very easy to build. Bending strips for former glue-ups in a full scale WW1 biplane project.

Atwater Mayor Pro Tem Craig Mooneyham's attorney appeared in court Wednesday, and scheduled a pretrial hearing and jury trial on behalf of his client.
Both hearings will be in September: the 4th for the pretrial and the 17th for the jury trial.
Mooneyham is facing a misdemeanor charge of disturbing the peace an accusation that stems from a January argument over the price of a milkshake at an area fast-food restaurant.
Although the councilman wasn't in court Wednesday, his attorney, C. Logan McKechnie, said the request for the hearings was agreed by both the prosecution and defense.
McKechnie said the pre-trial proceedings will determine whether the case will be heard by a jury.
The incident happened about 8:30 p.m. Jan. 26 at the Foster's Freeze on Winton Way in Atwater. A report from the Atwater Police Department states witnesses saw Mooneyham become aggressive while "yelling and cussing" at a clerk over the price of a milkshake.
When a bystander tried to intercede, Mooneyham challenged him to fight and threatened to assault him, according to witness statements. Witnesses said Mooneyham, who left before police arrived, appeared to be intoxicated and smelled of alcohol.
Mooneyham called the incident a mutual argument in a February interview with the Sun-Star, and denied being intoxicated or using foul language.
If convicted on the misdemeanor charge, Mooneyham could be sentenced to up to six months in county jail, a fine and probation.

No. 6 Graham racked up 543 total yards and scored touchdowns three different ways as the Steers defeated the Mineral Wells Rams, 51-7, Friday night in the season opener at Ram Stadium.
The Steers, winners of this past summer's Class 3A's seven-on-seven state championship, scored 30 points in the first quarter, including a touchdown on defense.
The Rams' lone score came in the final quarter. Defensive end Elijuan Combs, a move in from Arlington Lamar, alertly picked up Graham backup quarterback Weston Womack's fumble and sprinted 64 yards to the end zone.
Despite giving up 44 points in the first half, the Rams played the Steers even in the second half.
"We made some adjustments at halftime, and we kept playing hard for four quarters," Rams head coach Chuck Lawrence said. "We just did not play well in the first half."
MWHS came into the game shorthanded as starting running back Josh Hardee was sidelined while nursing an injury suffered in the Aug. 23 scrimmage at Azle.
But matters at running back worsened as Devon Edmond, starting in place of Hardee, had to leave the game due to injury.
"Our running game was crippled with Hardee out and with Edmond going down, so about all we could do is throw the football," Lawrence said. "It was just a bad night. But the kids never quit and we got a great play from Elijuan (Combs) on his (touchdown) play. We got three turnovers defensively, but most of the time we couldn't get off the field."
Graham scored on its first three drives. After Fidel Herrera opened the scoring with a 27-yard field goal, Steers running back Dillon Gonzales, the game's leading rusher, scored untouched on a one-yard run off left tackle.
Graham all-state quarterback Ben Davis led a second touchdown drive when he connected with Gonzales on a swing pass that went for 32 yards and a score.
