HILLSDALE Ś Over the past year Keith and Brandi Wireman and their two children Jon and Portia haveĀhad their lives turned upside down.
It was the morning of Dec. 9, 2011 when Jon and Portia were on their way to school. On that snowy, icy morning Jon lost control of the truck he was driving between Litchfield and Homer on M-99. After overcorrecting to avoid hitting an oncoming semi, the truck rolled as it went off the road, severely injuring both children. Since that wreck the Wireman family has accrued medical bills they have been struggling to pay. Hillsdale residents Megan VonDeylen and Heather Maxson are doing their part to help the family with the organizing of a vendor show from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday at the McCall Center. ōMy kids rodeo withĀ(Brandi's) kids, they will always put everything aside to help other kids,ö VonDeylen said. ōThatÆs the way they are. They are good kids and I hate to see them struggle.ö VonDeylenÆs children and the Wiseman children are in the same 4-H group and take part in 4-H rodeo events. Wiseman said the support is very humbling. ōI am very grateful, it is amazing,ö Wiseman said. The vendor show will feature a wide variety of items. VonDeylen said half of the spots are filled, and she is hoping to have all of the spaces filled by Sunday. Spots are $25 a table. ōWe are hoping for a last minute push,ö she said. ōI would love to pack the place.ö The show will also feature a silent auction with items donated from area businesses, and a small concession stand. All proceeds from the event will help to pay medical bills for the family. Vendors keep all of their profits from the event.
ōWe are hoping to make enough to pay for a month or two of their bills during the holiday season,ö VonDeylen said. Wiseman said the family's medical bills were sold to an outside company and theyĀhave had trouble keeping up with them. ōWe try to get by as much as we can without the extra things,ö Wiseman said. Despite the severity of the accident, Wiseman said both children are doing well. Portia continues to go to physical therapy three days a week and currently has fluid on her spinal cord. Both children also received head trauma in the wreck, causing them to lose portions of their memories. Portia is a seventh-grader at Homer Middle School and Jon graduated high school last spring after finishing up taking online classes. ōWe are grateful that their problems arenÆt worse,ö Wiseman said. During the wreck Wiseman believes that Jon saved the life of his sister when he hit the gas after the truck rolled, pulling the truck from the roll. The majority of the impact on the truck was on the passenger side. ōI donÆt think that she couldĀhave taken another roll,ö Wiseman said. ōThey know how blessed they are to be here.ö Vendors looking for booth space for the event can contact VonDeylen at firstname.lastname@example.com.

$29.99More InfoBook - America's Coolest Station Wagonsx
For all of us who grew up watching the world pass by from the back of a station wagon, this book touches a special chord. The same cars many would never want to be seen in are now in high demand, and it seems everyone has at least one great story involving a station wagon. Anyone who is a fan of nostalgia can relate to the subject matter, and for those who like vintage styling and modern performance, there are plenty of great examples of upgraded vintage wagons that can (and are) driven daily.
Noted magazine writing veteran Scotty Gosson takes an informative and lighthearted look at the lowly station wagon. Long lauded as a family mover unworthy of respect, the vintage style and quirky functionality of old wagons is now finding favor with enthusiasts and baby boomers alike. Their unique shapes and smile-inducing purpose separates wagons from more typical vintage rides, and in modified or customized form, wagons take on an entirely different personality.
Whether you're trying to make a statement or just wanted more space for family, friends, and luggage, this book is sure to make you smile and fondly reminisce time spent in the family wagon.

$39.99More InfoBook - Hurst Equipped: More Than 50 Years of Hi-Performancex
George Hurst was a hot rodder at heart, but he was also a visionary, an innovator, a brilliant promoter, and particularly skilled at building alliances. Hurst developed and marketed a high-performance line of shifters that would lead the industry and be the cornerstone of the company. After forming an alliance with Anco Industries, Hurst marketed and sold more than 100 speed parts, which included shifters, heads, wheels, and many other parts, and eventually the Hurst catalog became the source for high-performance parts in the1960s and 1970s.
Jack "Doc" Watson joined Hurst and became a pivotal figure within the company, which led to many performance projects with Pontiac. Over the years Hurst was also able to partner with Oldsmobile to build special 442s known as "Hurst" Olds, AMC with their wickedly effective SC Rambler, and Chrysler, creating a number of Super Stock cars as well as the 300H and one of the most memorable exhibition cars in drag racing history, the Hemi Under Glass.
No other company or individual had as big an impact on so many aspects of the automotive industry as George Hurst. His performance parts were some of the best ever, the competition cars won many races, and the muscle cars that bear his name were some of the best of the era. Scores of interviews, in-depth research, and exceptional insight from veteran magazine editor Richard Truesdell and co-author Mark Fletcher has created a g

I . pirn • r * ■ City. ,, ■ gyram is.situated in the south of Cache Valley,, on a series of hills.;. ' It is beautiful for situation, having a full vie?/ of the surrounding country. The .climate is- healthy, ana here con be raised, everything that can be produced in Salt Lake valley—the tender vine, the peach, .sorghumand sugar beet can be successfully grown here, the canyon winds keeping the frosts from this section fully one month later than any other part of 'the valley. Hyrum was first settled in the month of April, 1$60. The first location was made at a point about a mile north of the present towntite. The first persons who settled this place were Alva Benson, Ira Allen, i David Osborn, Andrew A. Allen, Moroni Benson, Hans E. Nielsen, Niels B. Nielsen, Andrew B. Nielsen, Hans V;onsen, Jens Monsen, Noah Brimhall, Adam Smith, James Benson, Hugh Parkes, David Parkes, Calvin Bingham, Alonzo Bingham, David Osborn, Jun., William Williams, Thomas Williams, John M. Hanson, Christopher 01 sen, Andrew Anderson, Jonas Halvorsen and' Soren Nielsen; in all about twenty families. The first organization was in May of the same year, by .Apostle E. T. Benson and Bishop Peter Maughan. Calvin Bingham was appointed Bishop, and Ira. Allen, Ward Clerk. The name of the town was suggested by David Osborn, from the following circumstance. In those early days it was intended to build the- City of Joseph on what is now known as the- College Far;n, on a line due north of Hyrum, and Mr. Osborn thought that the.name of Hyrum would be very appropriate for the adjoining city. ln the spring of that year, ground was lowed and crops put in. Then came the grave question of water. Ira Allen had previously looked out a route for a canal, end by the aid of a, spirit level had made a rough survey for a canal. Jesse W. Fox was afterwards engaged to survey the canal, but his stakes were so far apart that they could not bring the water any distance. In Mr. Allen's words, "they were the sickest men you ever saw." Their croos were in and growing finely, and now the water was a failure. Mr. Allen told his dispirited companions that he had leveled the country and felt satisfied they would succeed. They then went to work in earnest, and with the aid of the spirit level, brought the waters of Little Be ,x River from Old Paradise, a distance of nine, miles, in twenty-one working days. The canal was five feet wide at the bottom and eight feet at the top. While these hardy men were doing this work, many of them lived only upon bread and water. The only tools in their possession were eight shovels, a few old spades, half worn, and a few old home made plows. Under these trying circumstances they succeeded in bringing the water to their camp and fields, and now, after twenty-one years this same canal furnishes wa.ter to the City and farms of Byrum, and saw mills and other machinery are now propelled by its waters. The first log cabin was built by Alva Benson. Many dug holes or cellars in the ground and lived in them for the first few years. Phenette, the wife of Albert J. Allen and daughter of William and Margaret Williams, was the first child born in Hyrum. The first marriage was between Moroni Benson and Martha Phillips, The first death was the wife of Jens. P Jenson. The town was built in a fort for protection .against the Indians, until the present city was laid out. In the year 1&&$ Bishop Calvin Bingham was called to Bear Lake, and 0. N. Lilienquist was apoointed Bishop. The first public structure was the meeting house, a substantial rock building, 60x30. It was finished in the year 1^69, at a cost of about 06000. Hyrum was incorporated ?eb. 10th., 18"70. 0.. u. Liljenquist was elected Mayor.

Buggin' Out: Urban Bug Farming for the Future
In many cultures eating insects is more than a delicacy – it's a food staple. However, the use of bugs as a mainstream ingredient is a foreign idea in the developed world. As the human population continues to grow, we have to think about how to feed people. The UN's Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) has shown interest in using insects as an alternative food source. Due to their high concentration of the eight essential amino acids, vitamin B12, riboflavin, vitamin A, amazingly efficient converters that leave a much smaller environmental impact on the planet than cattle.
Once technologies are developed to produce insect-based food ingredients they can be incorporated into numerous food products. They would make great protein substitutes as any food additives to cereal, snack bars, or traditional meals. The high nutritional value, probiotic potential, and affordable price are just a few reasons why many Asian and Latin restaurants already offer insects on their menu.
Rethinking the urban farm and how to deal with the upcoming need to increase food supplies, Claire Lemarchand is planning a series of cricket farms to be placed throughout cities, that go beyond just growing bugs. Crickets are bred in cylindrical units surrounding a light source, to optimize yield, and are fed fresh food waste from the market and surrounding restaurants. While at night, the cricket farming units double as an urban lighting system.
Is urban bug farming a valid food source strategy? What other ideas could be implemented into our food supply networks? Or, could push the boundaries of urban farming and sustainable food sources to better prepare for future food demands?
Why Insects Should Be in Your Diet By Aaron T. Dossey
The Cricket Bigger Than Beef By Claire Lemarchand

Jun 4 2013: I think the largest problem with this is the cultural aspect. I'm pretty sure the last thing many people would want to eat are insects, especially in an American stapled diet. That being said, urban bug farming could be a valid food source given its nutritional capacity. Maybe if the insects did not come in the shape of an insect, individuals would be more open to the idea of a meat substitute.
However, these methods are really avoiding the inevitable of over-population. Maybe instead of trying to feed a growing world, we should start looking into controlling growth before earth's carrying capacity is reached. This way, technological expanse could keep hungry mouths fed while improving overall quality of life.
As nice as this is, urban bug farming is just a band-aid to over arching problem of over-population. Unless this is addressed, food supply, our yet-to-be energy crisis, and environment are all at risk.
Jun 4 2013: I completely agree with you, this is a valid and interesting idea to feed a hungry world. But is this necessary for America or other westernized countries? I am not convinced it is or that it would even work. Insects have great indirect benefits for human with their ability to remove wastes, pests, to pollinate crops and much more. In the TED talk attached to this conversation, the speaker states we are already eating insects in almost every processed foods. That statement concerned me, not because insects are bad, but because if they are already there why are we going to promote their expansion. It's like you said, it will be very difficult to control the population of insect farming as we go. It could lend up in the same tragic manner that our traditional protein sources have degraded to (commercialize farming.)
Jun 4 2013: I think he makes the statement that bugs are already there because it proves a point that they're in our diet already and it's not causing any alarm, that's why the FDA allows such large amount of bugs in the food we already eat. I don't think we'll have to deal with some of those same problems with commercial farming due to how easy it is to grow bugs. They can be grown in such small area that land will not become an issue in the foreseeable future.
Jun 4 2013: But because insects are smaller and it would require lots of individuals for us to eat in order to meet our caloric/protein demands, don't you think (if this market took off) there would eventually be a lot of area used to "grow" insects? Creating yet another commercialized farming industry (such as poultry, beef, etc.) that could create the exploitation of land/insects for our selfish needs?
Walter HoltJun 4 2013: John,
There may be much concern over using insects as a new type of commercialized farming, but consider the impacts of using insects over something like beef. Beef does have about 7% more protein than giant water bugs or small grasshoppers, but something like a dried caterpillar has 1% more protein than beef. Also, insects provide much higher levels of nutrients such as about 30% of the fat and four times the iron as in beef.
Concerning the spacing and overhead issues of growing insects we need only to look at the amount of water it takes to supply beef over crickets. It takes about 870 gallons of fresh, clean water to produce 1/3 lb of beef, whereas 1/4 lb or crickets only requires a moist paper towel at the bottom of their growing tank each week. This is because insects are much more efficient than cattle at using the water found in the feed. Also, insects are ectotherms. On average an ectotherm requires only 10% of that for an endotherm like a mammal of the same size. This means less feed and less water.
Another important thing is to consider the effects of using ground insects as a grain flour replacement or filler. In Australia this is actually becoming more polpular not only as a novelty thing but as a common part of many people's diets.
Jun 4 2013: Ashley- I can understand why processed foods might sound gross, but its a plausible way to introduce them into our diet.
John-I can see the worry of commercializing the bugs in ways similar to what has been done to beef poultry, etc., but while i agree it is an exploitation of the bugs and the land they are grown in, it may not be as detrimental to the growth of these bugs. They don't need to genetically modify most insects since they convert feed so well and can be grown in spaces similar to how the zebrafish were at the research center. These advantages should help with bug production and keep it from requiring too many modifications.
Jun 4 2013: I think we may want to relate this to how we colonized bees. And how the Honey Bee has been overbred because of its "byproduct" in which we have exploited and modified. Insects and Bees are vital to our ecosystem and I could see a scenario similar to the "vanishing of the bees" happen with other organisms that are crucial to our biodiversity. This of course would come with the capitalization on something like "insect meat" Not that I disagree with eating insects. But the commercialization, like anything......could spiral out of control. MUTANT BUGS! J/k
Interesting idea though.
Jun 4 2013: Colin,
With the breeding of animals we often have to either introduce a number of individuals from a wild population or from other captive population to keep genetic diversity among colonies higher. A higher level of genetic diversity leads to a greater chance of survival for that colony when a disease or virus hits it. Bee colonies are much different than a population of something like crickets. Crickets do not often live in groups and those groups aren't as organized as bee colonies. Also, all crickets can mate whereas only the males and the queen can mate in a bee colony leaving cricket populations to be much more diverse genetically.
Jun 4 2013: Alexander, I learned quite a bit about the food scarcity issues that many in our world are facing today in my international relations class this term. Yes, the population is growing, but it cannot be an excuse that the developed world uses to defend their horrific consumptive practices. An individual in the developed world consumes almost 30 times that of an individual in the developing world. We need to recognize the difference between absolute scarcity, insufficient resources no matter how equitably distributed, and socially-generated scarcity, insufficient resources for some and not others. In my opinion the scarcity issues we are facing today are almost completely socially-generated. This is why I think it is dangerous to rely on technology when our current agricultural practices, many that stemmed from the development of new technologies, will solve these issues. Not exactly related to eating bugs but an important point to keep in mind when discussing agriculture.
Jun 4 2013: I think you're right that insects would be more successful as a food source if they didn't look like insects. One way I can imagine doing this is through the production of bugs into "protein powder." Millions of Americans already use protein supplements as a way to get needed nutrients or even "bulk-up." I feel like if some sort of powdered supplement made of insects was marketed in the right way it could definitely be successful! Cricket protein bars already exist, like others mentioned, and I think with the right marketing bug supplements could become popular.
Jun 5 2013: i have to say, my big thing regarding using insects as a food source is as you said it, they look like insects. I think creating a sort of protein powder is an excellent idea in order to incorporate them into our diet. I realize that bugs are extremely nutritious, and that their benefits to the world are enormous, but they are still in my head bugs. Im sure im not the only one thinking this. I wonder if there are other ways that we can be eating the "bugs" without eating them? if maybe there could be like a dressing, or a seasoning, and again the protein powder. What do people thing? What other ideas are there out there that could be used for the bugs so they dont look like they are eating bugs?

College students' interest rates are at the mercy of Congress.The interest rates on subsidized Stafford loans doubled from 3.4 percent Monday and could stay doubled unless Congress fulfills its pledge to restore lower rates when it returns from the Fourth of July holiday.Lawmakers from both parties, as well as the White House, vowed to lower that rate before students started signing loan documents this fall. But the rate now stands at 6.8 percent - higher than most loans available from private lenders."To have students saddled with a 6.8 percent rate makes no sense and it's going to put an increasing burden on a time when more and more students need to take out a loan in order to finish their college education," said U.S. Rep. Gary Peters (D-Bloomfield Twp.)."My loans, the interest rate is like doubling so it's crazy," said L.J. Gamble, a senior at Wayne State University.According to Wayne State officials, nearly 18,000 students, including law and medical school, received a Stafford loan for the 2012-13 year, accounting for 56 percent of WSU students enrolled in fall and winter classes."We don't have a say in it," said Prachi Patel, a pre-med student. "It was just done."Efforts to keep interest rates from doubling on new subsidized Stafford loans fell apart last week amid partisan wrangling in the Senate. Democratic senators and the White House both predicted a deal would be reached in Congress to bring the rates down again before students return to campus.But if an agreement remains elusive, students could find themselves saddled with higher interest rates this year than last. Congress' Joint Economic Committee estimated the cost passed to students would be about $2,600.Students only borrow money for one school year at a time. Subsidized Stafford loans taken before Monday are not affected by the rate hike, nor are federal PLUS, Perkins or unsubsidized Stafford loans slated for the coming year.Subsidized Stafford loans go to needier students and often are coupled with other types of lending. Those loans make up roughly one quarter of all direct federal borrowing.Both political parties tried to blame the other for the hike and student groups complained the increase in interest rates would add to student loan debt that already surpasses credit card debt in this country.Lawmakers knew for a full year the July 1 deadline was coming but were unable to strike a deal to dodge that increase. During last year's presidential race, both parties pledged to extend the 3.4 percent interest rates for another year to avoid angering young voters.But the looming hike lacked sufficient urgency this year and Congress last week left town for the holiday without an agreement. Instead, the Democratic-led Senate pledged to revisit the issue as soon as July 10 and retroactively restore the rates for another year - into 2014, when a third of Senate seats and all House seats are up for election."Hopefully when we get back into Congress next week, we can pass legislation to make it retro-active, to make sure those students that enter this fall know that they have a 3.4 percent rate and not a 6.8 percent one," said Peters.At the White House, a spokesman predicted a deal could be reached before students return to campus."We are confident they will get there and that the solution will include retroactive protection for students who borrow after July 1 so that their student loan rates don't double," Matt Lehrich said.Even when lawmakers return, there's no guarantee there will be the votes to restore the lower rates. Efforts last week to reach a bipartisan agreement fizzled and there have been few examples of meaningful compromise in Congress.

Comments On Aug 03, 2014:Got the front and rear set for mainly moto use. The tracks I ride are normally clay that packs and once in a while I ride some soft sand trails.
The front tire always feels like it's nearly flat...it wanders and pushes more than I like. It's worse as the soil gets softer. I don't get it....they look like great tires. Wear is ok though, if you can get past the loose, wandering feel enough to use it for long.
The rear is better and holds up ok for a Dunlop.

Comments On May 27, 2014:I thought that I would save $10 and buy an MX 51 instead of my typical Maxxis tire and it lasted 2 rides before it disintegrated. The tire literally came apart. I was forced to ride it back to the trailhead flat and then damaged my rim doing so....so much for a $10 savings...I am sticking with the Maxxis from here on.

The other day a friend and I needed to make savory crepes that were going to a dinner party, and decided to go authentic with buckwheat flour so I bought Bob's Red Mill buckwheat flour for that purpose. It's been awhile since I had buckwheat flour around and needed a recipe to get started with; Basic Buckwheat Crepes, found on Epicurious.com, seemed to be just the ticket. It specified 100% buckwheat flour, milk, water, egg.
The resulting mixture looked like the dark gray-green sludge that comes up from the ocean floor on our crab traps sometimes--and the first crepe we made was just as ugly as the batter. Much darker than any buckwheat crepe I've made before and unservable. With 45 minutes left before we needed to leave with 19 perfect crepes that each needed about 3 minutes to cook we were already seriously behind schedule so I threw flour, milk, water and egg together and scooped in just a little buckwheat batter--I'd say it was now 2:1 plain flour, maybe even closer to 3. I didn't measure. The flavor was good and even more importantly, they were attractive enough on the plate. That is, they looked like they'd been made with something other than plain AP flour but 'mud' wouldn't cross your mind. So that's what we finished with but geez it was unnerving.
Must be a lot of variance in the color of buckwheat itself. Anyone know more about it?

The number of women with both Pre/e-Hellp, and hyperemesis is astonishing to me. There has to be SOME connection, seeing as how less than 1% of women have hyperemesis. It completely SUCKS that we puke our guts up (I did the ENTIRE pg), and then we get this life-threatening disease. I almost wonder if hyperemesis is some sort of precursor to p/e....

Pomona State Park
22900 S. Highway 368
Vassar, KS 66543
Pomona State Park came into existence by a lease agreement through the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers upon completion of construction of the dam in 1963. Pomona Lake controls watershed runoff from over a 322 square mile area. Controlled releases are made into 110-Mile Creek, which flows into the Marais des Cygnes, Osage and Missouri Rivers. This lake is operated in conjunction with other U.S. Army Corps of Engineers projects, which Congress authorized to be build for flood control in the Missouri and Mississippi River basins.
Pomona State Park offers visitors a transition from prairie to eastern woodlands with plenty of well-shaded campsites and wildlife viewing. The park is nestled in an area that offers historical connections to the Santa Fe Trail, as well as easy access to several metropolitan areas. Rich history and ample services make the park a premier outdoor recreation facility.
Well known by northeast Kansas residents for shady campsites and a great family atmosphere, Pomona State Park is located 30 miles south of Topeka, Kansas. This 4,000 acre lake features scenic beauty as well as an abundance of wildlife. The state park, consisting of 490 acres, is located on the south shore of Pomona Reservoir. More than 200 primitive campsites and 142 utility sites are located throughout the 12 campgrounds. Some utility sites can be reserved, but primitive sites cannot. Southwind Shelter House is a reservable group facility available for your family gathering or business meeting. The Shelter House is available year-round. Recreational opportunities await you with three hiking trails, swim beach, day use picnic areas, volleyball and basketball courts, playgrounds, horseshoe pits and a nine-hole disc golf course. The park also has a full service marina with boat slips to rent daily or annually. There are restaurants and a golf course located nearby.

commandlinefu.com is the place to record those command-line gems that you return to again and again.
Delete that bloated snippets file you've been using and share your personal repository with the world. That way others can gain from your CLI wisdom and you from theirs too. All commands can be commented on, discussed and voted up or down.
If you have a new feature suggestion or find a bug, please get in touch via http://commandlinefu.uservoice.com/
You can sign-in using OpenID credentials, or register a traditional username and password.
First-time OpenID users will be automatically assigned a username which can be changed after signing in.
Every new command is wrapped in a tweet and posted to Twitter. Following the stream is a great way of staying abreast of the latest commands. For the more discerning, there are Twitter accounts for commands that get a minimum of 3 and 10 votes - that way only the great commands get tweeted.

Use your favourite RSS aggregator to stay in touch with the latest commands. There are feeds mirroring the 3 Twitter streams as well as for virtually every other subset (users, tags, functions,…):
Subscribe to the feed for:
Site by David Winterbottom (user root).
This command will show the 20 processes using the most CPU time (hungriest at the bottom).
You can see the 20 most memory intensive processes (hungriest at the bottom) by running:
ps aux | sort +3n | tail -20
Or, run both:
echo "CPU:" && ps aux | sort +2n | tail -20 && echo "Memory:" && ps aux | sort +3n | tail -20
This command will tell you the 20 biggest directories starting from your working directory and skips directories on other filesystems. Useful for resolving disk space issues.
See man vmstat for information about the statistics.
This does the same thing without the timestamp:
vmstat 5
This truncates any lines longer than 80 characters. Also useful for looking at different parts of the line, e.g. cut -b 50-100 shows columns 50 through 100.
Suppose you made a backup of your hard disk with dd:
dd if=/dev/sda of=/mnt/disk/backup.img
This command enables you to mount a partition from inside this image, so you can access your files directly.
Substitute PARTITION=1 with the number of the partition you want to mount (returned from sfdisk -d yourfile.img).
This command is much quicker than the alternative of "sort | uniq -c | sort -n".
with discard wilcards in bash you can "tail" newer logs files to see what happen, any error, info, warn...
The pipe to head removes the listing of . as the largest directory.
In this case, I'm keeping an eye on /var/log/messages, but of course any file will do. When I'm following a file, I generally don't want to see anything other than what has been added due to the command or service I've executed. This keeps everything clean and tidy for troubleshooting.
Useful to e.g. keep an eye on several logfiles.
It displays, last 15 yum operations (in last operation as first row order) with its dates. Change 15 to any number of operations you need to display or remove "| tac" to see it in reverse order (last operation as last row)
The hyphen tells vim to open from STDOUT - saves having to create temporary files.
tail would be considered dull, but pair this with being able to push out unix commands over ARD, and life gets easier. (Same can be said for my TimeMachine scrape command, http://xrl.us/begrzb)
While they are few config options and even fewer useful details regarding what actually is being sent by the time machine 'backupd' process, this can at least tell you its doing something, how much it's doing, and exactly how often. Via macosxhints, http://xrl.us/begrwa, which in turn was via comments
zsh only
If you have this command in your history, you can always re-run it and have it reference the latest file.
The glob matches all timestamped files and then the resulting array is sorted by modification time (m) and then the first element in the sorted array is chosen (the latest)
List top 20 IP from which TCP connection is in SYN_RECV state.
Useful on web servers to detect a syn flood attack.
Replace SYN_ with ESTA to find established connections
tells you the number of lines in said file, and then tail the last 100 lines ( or how many are messed up) then u take the total amount of lines and then subract the 100 or so lines u DONT WANT, then do a head -n $new_number and then redirect it to new file.db
Use this command to see logs update in real time
Use the aliased command 'nsl'
This command opens the latest, most current rotating apache access log for visual analysis and inspection. Run this command from the apache log directory. For error logs, replace access_log with error_log.
This is useful for keeping an eye on an error log while developing. The !^ pulls the first arg from the previous command (which needs to be run in a sub-shell for this shortcut to work).
This uses awk to grab the IP address from each request and then sorts and summarises the top 10.

Talking about the massive asteroid that passed by Earth Friday afternoon in astronomy class at Wayne State can't compare to the cosmic surprise that rained down over Russia earlier in the day.
"There are literally thousands of these objects, the so-called near earth objects, NEOs, out there. It's a pretty scary proposition," said Claude Pruneau.
Super scary when you consider what happened in Russia.
"It's crazy. I was surprised it was unrelated the asteroid that's going by us today," said student Andrew Pixley.
"I think we should definitely spend more money and really see what's out there," said student Nahid Bari.
"This was a big one and that happens, but not very often fortunately," Pruneau said.
Pruneau is a physics professor and director of the planetarium at Wayne State. He says don't panic.
"Sonic booms like this happens millions of times a day, but most of the time they're so tiny that we cannot perceive them. We cannot see them," he explained.
The professor says those that are big enough are on NASA's radar, such as the asteroid that just passed by, and they can be deflected if they're on a direct collision course with Earth.
To put this in perspective, scientists say this cosmic display we just saw in Russia really pales in comparison with what wiped out the dinosaurs.
"Dinosaurs were extinct 65 million years ago most likely because of an impact in the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico, but this was a major, major colossal event," said Pruneau.
An object that was probably hundreds of kilometers across that crashed to Earth generating ashes that blocked out the sun and cooled down the planet and caused mass extinction. 65 million years ago there was no way to predict that.
"The universe is a dangerous place," Pruneau said.
And a fascinating one.

I delivered our son in June. We wanted to wait until his due date for his funeral. Tomorrow is finally it. I'm worried about tomorrow because I can just feel the intensity of what's about to happen. I was preparing a photobook for him about a month ago. In it there are ultrasound pictures, footprints, and pictures taken after his birth. I also included excerpts of songs that I felt were fitting. I found this one version of Rainbow Connection, and it surprisingly does the situation justice.
Here's the last verse and the link to a youtube video.
Have you been half asleep and have you heard voices?
I've heard them calling my name.
Is this the sweet sound that called the young sailors.
The voice might be one and the same.
I've heard it too many times to ignore it.
It's something that I'm supposed to be.
Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection.
The lovers, the dreamers and me.

Well, it's actually #11
All of these lists are pretty silly, but it is nice that they did include some lower priced places like Sripraphai, Xi'an, Frank Pepe, etc. But hard to figure what (if any) criteria they used for poll (how many votes did each person get?). I mean, Berns is famous for its wine list, NOT the food. List is very NYC centric, but I've only eaten at 11 of the NY choices (and Fore Street is only non-NY one I've been to- where's Manresa?_

Obvious attempt at some geographic diversity, yet they end up with 3 TX BBQ places, and a couple in Nashville, but no KC or Carolina? And we all know eastern NC is where real 'cue comes from.

|Photo of barrack room at Salisbury Plain
|In other notes Walter Powell records that he was at Bulford Camp and later Lark Hill Camp, both on Salisbury Plain - soon after May 1917.
Part of a collection relating to Walter H. Powell, Llandrindod Wells, (private / driver M2-267205 Mechanised Transport Army Service Corps). Born 1898, Walter tried to join up under-age on a number of occasions, finally succeeding in 1916. He served many months - (more than 2 years?) - in different army units in Britain, before going over to France. He served as a despatch rider for an anti-aircraft battery in 1918-1919. Walter was gassed suffering the effects all his life. He was a founder member of Toc-H in Llandrindod, and a keen footballer - he died in 1994 aged 96. However Walter's older brothers (Cliff and Percy Powell) and his uncle (Humphrey Powell) died of wounds sustained during the war.

The 2007–2009 financial crisis and recession were triggered in part by a near collapse of some large financial institutions, a sharp contraction in the availability of credit, and a large drop in house prices. In response, federal support for financial institutions and credit markets substantially increased. CBO quantifies the costs and risks of policy proposals related to federal credit and insurance programs, banking and capital markets, government-sponsored enterprises such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and other federal financial activities.

Back to Dressing up, Dressing down
During the 1950s, a Manchester-based pressure group known as "The Cotton Board" with its associated organisation called the "Colour, Style and Design Centre" were influential in promoting the use of cotton in fashion. Inaugurated to assist cotton manufacturers to utilise the fashion industry, the Board sought to encourage designers and retail outlets to use and stock cotton textiles, particularly for glamorous evening and cocktail wear, an area where silk and rayon had hitherto dominated. Fashion parades were organised, as in the main photograph, where commissioned outfits were shown, designed by a range of well known English and French couturiers. Many of these catwalk outfits were subsequently presented to the Gallery of Costume, together with their press descriptions and publicity photographs showing the original models.
It is rather difficult to assess the effectiveness of the Cotton Board's campaigns, which lasted until the early 1960s. Cotton is a versatile fibre, but some of the dresses in the collection are rather bizarre, and clearly impractical - a ballgown in black jumbo corduroy for instance, so heavy that the wearer could hardly stand, let alone dance! Cotton also had to compete with nylon, which was also promoted as a glamorous fabric in the 1950s, although here too, success was limited. The final image below shows a shot of an exhibition of some of the outfits held at the Gallery in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
