Volunteer teachers at each of the county's middle schools will begin the preparation for the formation of their school's bridge teams. This will be the fifth year that Reno Youth Bridge and the WCSD have worked in partnership to teach the game of bridge to students in preparation for their interscholastic competition at American Contract Bridge League (ACBL) sanctioned tournaments in the Spring semester.
Why learn Bridge? Bridge is a trick taking game using an ordinary deck of 52 cards dealt evenly among four players made up of two partnerships. Bridge is a critical thinking game that involves the practical application of basic math, memory and the communication of information using only 15 words, numbers or phrases which together can form only 35 statements describing the strength of one's hand. In addition to the values of enhanced academics, the game helps students learn inferential analysis, something that cannot be taught in a classroom.
In a recent three-year study by Dr. Christopher Shaw of Carlinville, Ill., six groups of fifth graders with similar academic ability were examined. One group learned to play bridge as part of its math instruction but the others did not. All the students took the Iowa Test of Basic Skills (ITSB) over the next three years. While performance on the ITSB increases as students get older, what Shaw discovered was that those who learned and played bridge had a 15 to 40 percent greater increase in their ITSB scores than their non-playing classmates. It was the discovery of this study that motivated several members of the Reno Unit of the ACBL to form Reno Youth Bridge, Inc., a nonprofit company, and become responsible for the organization and funding of the teaching of Bridge to WCSD Students.
Students who participate in after-school activity classes learning and playing bridge have the opportunity to earn an achievement award of a $1000 college scholarship or gift certificates of various amounts up to $500 redeemable at Reno-Sparks merchants or restaurants.
For parents and families wishing to learn more about how they can become involved in bridge, information is available from their student's middle school online at www.renoyouthbridge.org.

Barracudas swimming expanding to Elizabethton
By Matt Hill
Following the most successful Elizabethton High School Swim season in recent memory, head coach Justin Conway wants to keep the momentum going — and he's on the right track with a new swim club.
The Elizabethton Barracudas begin swimming this year, and the Northeast Tennessee Boys Coach of the Year is excited to get people into swimming in Elizabethton and even among county school students.
"Throughout the season we kept communication with Science Hill coach Chris Corragio, and he coaches Science Hill's Barracudas swim club. And he asked me if I would be interested in coaching an Elizabethton branch of the Barracuda swim club, and I said 'very much so,' This summer team is going to be called the Elizabethon Barracudas and it's going to be an extension of the Johnson City and Kingsport Barracudas programs," Conway said.
"Our ultimate goal is to get youngsters involved in swimming throughout Carter County. This program is open for people just young enough to swim all the way up to senior citizens. We're going to start this swim team in what we call the blue swimmer category who are new at the art of swimming so the practices and meets will be geared toward advancing to their level of swimming."
Conway wants to get the people of Carter County excited about swimming, and wants to build a foundation for the people.
"What we desire from this summer swim program is to target this toward youth so that when they come up to Elizabethton High School, they will join the swim team and have some background in swimming," Conway said. "Many of the regional champions or state champions, you don't see many of them who haven't swam in a summer league team like this. Normally to be a great swimmer you have to swim year round."
Conway is able to be more involved with the swim program in the summer than some of the other coaches at Elizabethton High School thanks to swimming not being sanctioned by the TSSAA. Swimming is the only sport at EHS not under the TSSAA jurisdiction.
This allows him to promote the sport and get the community involved.
"What we want to do with the young kids in Elizabethton and Carter County is to teach them about swimming so they can fall in love with it as much as I have and as much as the swimmers at Elizabethton High School have," Conway said.
Counting the USA swimming registration fee, the first month's fee is $123 and it's $61 the rest of the time.
"You're not going to find any better deal than this," Conway said. "This is an eight-week program that is going to be fun and exciting, and the kids will never forget it."
Most of the meets are on Tuesday nights, except for the championship meet on July 28.
"The kids are not required to go to every single swim meet, but you have to go to two to be eligible for the championship meet," Conway said. "That will be very exciting. Some of the meets are going to be outdoors, some of them are going to be in big aquatic centers like at Dobyns-Bennett High School and Science Hill High School. At Elizabethton we're going to be able to host two of these meets, and the furthest we have to travel is Kingsport, so when you consider gas prices the way they are, we're not going to be traveling that far compared to some of the traveling baseball teams. Everything is in the Tri-Cities.
You can reach Coach Conway for more information at (423) 342-7493 or by email at email@example.com Conway has plenty of brochures and you can go online at www.barracudaswimclub.org. and look up the ETSSL (East Tennessee Summer Swim League) link.
Conway was named boys coach of the year by the area swim coaches in the region this year, and EHS finished fourth in the team standings at the region meet behind big three schools: Science Hill, Dobyns-Bennett and Tennessee High.
It didn't start off very easily for Conway, who had to rebuild a program that hadn't had much success since Jonelle Johnson coached about a decade ago.
Conway had to connect with the kids, and this graduate student did just that and was able to help them reach their full potential.
"I felt at first I was diving into the deep end, no pun intended," Conway said. "I thought I was in over my head, but what I found was a great support group at the high school with EHS Athletic Director Mike Wilson and the other coaches who have helped me along the way, and I also found a group of kids that were dedicated and willing to work hard and follow my guidance. It was a great blessing on my life to work with these kids this last year. The program had struggled in recent years to garner interest. It had several different coaches throughout several different years, but what it did have was great swimmers. All these kids needed to do was to be encouraged, to be led and to be excited and they took care of the rest."
During the first couple of meets, the Cyclones struggled, but by the Dobyns-Bennett meet in December the improvement really began to show and by the Region Meet the Cyclones were among the cream of the crop with the big three.
"The local coaches voted me Boys Coach of the Year, and some of these schools included Greeneville, Tennessee High, Dobyns-Bennett, Science Hill and Sullivan South," Conway said. "These are big high schools and they saw something in Elizabethton High School that made them take notice. Although they gave me the award, the award belongs to the whole team because they put in the work in the pool and worked hard and together we accomplished great things at Elizabethton High School this season."

Jay Asher's TH1RTEEN R3ASONS WHY website
JAY ASHER'S blog
Clay Jensen returns home from school to find a mysterious box with his name on it lying on his porch. Inside he discovers several cassette tapes recorded by Hannah Baker--his classmate and crush--who committed suicide two weeks earlier. On tape, Hannah explains that there are thirteen reasons why she decided to end her life. Clay is one of them. If he listens, he'll find out how he made the list. Through Hannah and Clay's dual narratives, debut author Jay Asher weaves an intricate and heartrending story of confusion and desperation that will deeply affect teen readers.
ExcerptA shoebox-sized package is propped against the front door at an angle. Our front door has a tiny slot to shove mail through, but anything thicker than a bar of soap gets left outside. A hurried scribble on the wrapping addresses the package to Clay Jensen, so I pick it up and head inside. I take the package into the kitchen and set it on the counter. I slide open the junk drawer and pull out a pair of scissors. Then I run a scissor blade around the package and lift off its top. Inside the shoebox is a rolled-up tube of bubble-wrap. I unroll that and discover seven loose audiotapes. Each tape has a dark blue number painted in the upper right-hand corner, possibly with nail polish. Each side has its own number. One and two on the first tape, three and four on the next, five and six, and so on. The last tape has a thirteen on one side, but nothing on the back. Who would send me a shoebox full of audiotapes? No one listens to tapes anymore. Do I even have a way to play them? The garage! The stereo on the workbench. My dad bought it at a yard sale for almost nothing. It's old, so he doesn't care if it gets coated with sawdust or splattered with paint. And best of all, it plays tapes. I drag a stool in front of the workbench, drop my backpack to the floor, then sit down. I press Eject on the player. A plastic door eases open and I slide in the first tape.
THE FUTURE OF USWhat if you could see how your life would unfold--just by clicking a button?It's 1996, and less than half of all American high school students have ever used the Internet. Emma just got her first computer and an America Online CD-ROM. Josh is her best friend. They power up and log on--and discover themselves on Facebook, fifteen years in the future. Everybody wonders what their destiny will be. Josh and Emma are about to find out.

Nest Learning Thermostat learns user habits and programs itself
The Nest Learning Thermostat comes with a timer indicating how long it will take to reach the desired temperature.
Article Summary
While programmable thermostats are nothing uncommon these days, many users adjust the temperature manually utilizing the thermostat's basic feature only. On the other hand, it's certainly difficult to develop an appropriate program corresponding to the volatility of daily life. Designed by a team led by ex-Apple engineer Tony Fadell, the Nest Learning Thermostat offers a new take on automatic temperature adjustment. Featuring a simple knob-based design, the unit is capable of self-programming itself via a combination of its user's habits, activity sensors and Internet-gathered weather information, thus increasing energy savings without much effort on the user's part.

Tychy Brewery Selected by The Independent
17 March 2009
Tyskie Browary Książęce [Tychy Duke's Brewery] is one of the European breweries on the route of a beer trip organized by the daily The Independent. The trip is a reward for the winner of a writing-travelling contest.
One of the biggest brewing companies in the world, SABMiller, in conjunction with the British daily, The Independent, organized a contest which was to select a promising and a gifted writer. Lorena di Nola, Italian translator, blogger and writer, residing in England, has won the contest. As a reward, at the end of February, she set out on a journey which was to include 7 most interesting breweries in Europe. So far, she has visited Holland, Hungary and Slovakia. There still remain the Czech Republic, Poland, Italy and Romania.
The roots of European art of brewing date back to over a thousand years ago, while the history of the role of beer in the development of European culture provides an informative survey of rituals, traditions, adages, and places still occupying a prominent role in contemporary societies. A-six-week-long trip, with all expenses paid, will be an excellent chance for the blogger to describe the phenomenon. The blog will be posted on The Independent's internet site www.theindependent.co.uk throughout the progress of the journey.
The writer on the road
Winner of the contest, Lorena di Nola, grew up in southern Italy. Today, she resides in London. She studied English and Russian, hence she knows three languages. Travel is her life passion. For Christmas, her friends always present her with a guidebook to the country she has not visited yet. What does she know about Poland which she is scheduled to visit on March 17-20?
Lorena di Nola:
- I've heard about the Polish Party of the Friends of Beer and about a film trilogy Three Colours. Obviously, I know about the Polish Pope and the Solidarity. A few years ago, I visited Gdańsk; it is such a beautiful city. I was fascinated by people swimming in the Baltic Sea in spite of very low temperatures.
Although Lorena saw Tyskie many times in a London supermarket she shops at, she has never drunk this Polish beer. She will certainly have a chance to remedy that during her visit to the Tychy Brewery.

Seems to me that this vote flies in the face of Republican
goals for Michigan to become a 'right to work' state – or do they. It will be interesting to see how our
recently elected representatives negotiate their way around the notion of which
union is more 'deserving' than another……given their (not all) own associations with one
or more of the various unions.
The notion that arbitrators might be required to consider
the financial ability of the community to 'pay' is ridiculous. That should be left to the individual
communities and the taxpayers. This vote is more accurately characterized as a 'rollover' in favor of the unions.
How will the abritator acquire such information when municipalities do not honestly reveal their financial standings. I hope you are not considering heresay!
Arbitrators have no business considering the ability of a locality to pay for the services it wants. That is up to the voters.

"Our anniversary parties just keep getting better every year," cooed Rick's Cabaret Girl Rebekka. "It was so crowded with so many important people who came to help us celebrate. It was awesome and I loved all the compliments I got for my new 34Ds!"
Rick's Cabaret Girl Lindsay said, "I haven't been here eight years, I started dancing a year and a half ago, and I already have had so many great experiences. One of my favorite things was posing for photos that appeared on GirlRoster.com. That was a thrill. I love that site–its super sexy."
Howard Stern Show character "Ronnie the Limo Driver" was special guest host one of the nights.
"These are the hottest girls on earth," said Ronnie. Rick's Cabaret Girl Monica returned the compliment. "Ronnie is great. He is so much fun to be with and he really knows how to treat a girl right."

Pros – Company culture of team work is fantastic. System oriented processes allows for steady business while allowing experimentation on pushing the boundaries.
Cons – Decision making by consensus sometimes means some opportunities are missed. Takes some time to learn the systems to become truly effective.
Advice to Senior Management – Accelerate decision making and decentralise innovation.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

Dream State
Eight Generations of Swamp Lawyers, Conquistadors, Confederate Daughters, Banana Republicans, and Other Florida Wildlife
Acclaimed journalist and NPR commentator Diane Roberts has many family secrets and she's ready to tell them. Like the time her cousin state Senator Luther Tucker wrapped his Caddy around a tree, allegedly with a jug of moonshine on the seat next to him. Or how cousin Susan Branford was given an African girl for her eighth birthday. Or the time when cousin Enid Broward was made the May Queen of 1907, even though her daddy the governor shocked the state by trying to drain the entire Everglades. Roberts' ancestors helped settle Florida, kill off its pesky Indians, enslave some of its inhabitants, clear its forests, lay its train tracks, and pave its roads, all the time weaving themselves into the very fabric of this dangling chad of a state.
With a storyteller's talent for setting great scenes, Roberts lays out the sweeping history of eight geberations of Browards and Bradfords, Tuckers anf Robertses, even as she Forest Gumps them into situations with more historically familiar names. Whether it's the American court of Catherine de Médicis, the Tallahassee court of Katherine Harris, Henry Flagler's boardroom -- not to mention his bedroom -- or Jeb Bush's statehouse, you're likely to find a branch or a root of the Roberts family growing entangled nearby.
Starting in the recent past with the botched presidential election of 2000, Roberts introduces the many sides of the debate, coincidentally peopled with cousins both kissing and close. She then goes back to Florida's first inhabitants, showing how this alluring peninsula many called a paradise played a role in the destiny of those who settled there. Following their colorful progress up to the present, she renders them all with a deep, familial affection.
Florida has forced itself into the collective American unconscious with its messed-up elections, anthrax scares, shark attacks,boat lifts, snowbirds, and the Bush dynasty. While exposing the real people whom Carl Hiaasen and Elmore Leonard have been fictionalizing for years, Dream State ultimately reveals the cogs and wheels that make the state tick.

The story I was told, the story all Florida schoolchildren were once told, was that Juan Ponce de León came to Florida to find the Fountain of Youth. Maybe Spain was full of geriatric conquistadores, looking for a place to unfreeze their old bones and heat up their blood once more. This made sense to us. Florida was full of old people wearing shorts in fierce gum-ball colors, old people on golf carts, old people with burnt sienna tans and parasoled cocktails and fifty-dollar manicures, all trying to feel less old. It was as if Florida were some kind of American reward: Live most of your life... see more

I downloaded one of the presets called "Floyd-Gasm" from the customs-tone page. When I copied this preset to my pod I got the message that the DSP limit was reached. A few seconds later the pod did not react to any activity and I tried to restart by unplugging the pod. The welcome screen showed up and the pod does not "boot". I hangs up on the welcome screen. I tried to update the firmware varies times than but it did not help. I started up the pod by pressing the key to the right to enter safe mode and tried to install firmware from there. Which worked according to the message on the screen. By restarting the pod I'm hanging on the welcome screen again.
Is there anything else I can do on my own on the pod to get it working again?
by Nick_Mattocks on 2010-11-21 09:46:24
I have used the patch Floyd-Gasm today on my HD500 for the first time with no problems, so although I can see it is quite a 'busy' patch and may be close the the maximum DSP limit, it doesn't crash my HD500 nor a couple of people who were also looking at this particular preset.
OK - what i think has happened in your case is that the patch has partially transferred to your HD500 and when you re-flashed your unit's firmware in safe mode you opted to retain your existing presets. Try again but this time don't retain your system's presets and don't initially connect to HD500 edit when you restart the unit. Disconnect the HD500 from the computer completely and restart the unit as a standalone device. Hopefully it should re-boot properly.
by max_vie on 2010-11-21 12:41:28
Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately the Pod still does not start up ;(
I also described how it happened in this thread: http://line6.com/community/thread/49394
Idon't think that the patch was transfered partially as it went over to the Pod without any problems and I could play with the patch.
The pod was not connected to my PC when I mentionned that the second amp was disabled. When I tried to choose an amp on the Pod on this patch I received the DSP overflow message. So I wanted to turn of the particle reverb to free up some memory and that was the moment when the Pod hung up.
I have always chosen to get rid of all the user patches during the firmware update procedure as I was sure that something went when I was fiddling around with exactly this patch. Meanwhile I tried to reflash the firmware in any possible order and on two different PC's. The Pod still hangs in an endless loop on the welcome screen. The only possible way to do the firmware update is by starting the pod in safe mode as otherwise monkey does not recognize the hung up Pod. The firmware update completes and asks me to restart the Pod .... and I'm back in the welcome screen loop ;(
This was the first time that this happened to me using any of the various presets that I downloaded from customtone. Anyway, I'm just not getting why it is not possible to set the Pod back to it's out-of-the-box status using the firmware update procedure. I tried to update the firmware using the reinstall/update procedure in Monkey and I used the downloadable file and tried to update it that way. It does not work. The firmware update installation finishes telling me to restart the Pod and it hangs up on the welcome screen.

Sounds like you're doing everything right which means that definitely does not sound good.
I think unfortunately you may have to wait until Line 6 weighs in on this. Sunday today so hopefully tomorrow. But, it sounds like even they may not be able to fix it quickly. I'd maybe swap it out at your point of purchase if that's easy.
by Nick_Mattocks on 2010-11-21 12:52:14
I'm sorry that you still have the problem. I don't know of any other ways to possibly get around this issue, sorry. Maybe someone on the L6 Support team will be able to advise you better, but to me the unit seems to have developed a fault and will possibly need a repair.
by max_vie on 2010-11-23 02:13:26
Just to keep it updated - my Pod HD500 is still dead.
I brought the Pod to a local music store (not the one where I bought it) and one of the guys was friendly enough to try his best to get it up running again. With no success.
I talked to the retailer in Germany where I bought the pod and I have to return the Pod on my own expenses and it will be sent in for repair. I'm not sure if I should keep the Pod when I get it back because I'm just afraid that this can happen everytime just by trying out someones preset. And I'm not willing to pay € 35,- each time to send it back to the retailer because the software on the Pod hangs up. It just feels unreliable and I think I will put it on eBay as soon as I get it back from repair. Back to a small tube amp with pedals - not a very variable solution, but it's not depending on a piece of bugged software and it worked for years in the past and I'm sure it will just work for the next years too.
by Nick_Mattocks on 2010-11-23 02:33:33
Unfortunately the problem of buying stuff from overseas on-line means that you have to send things back when they go wrong. You may pay a little more from a local retailer, but in general they are usually quite helpful in my experience.
Your problem does not seem to have come up before on this forum or at least not much, so I think you probably have a broken unit and that this is hopefully an isolated case.
Good luck
Best regards
by ozbadman on 2010-11-23 08:26:47
I haven't seen this before so hopefully you just have a broken unit.
by L6EXPERT on 2010-11-23 08:29:05
I wouldnt even mess with it that much. Its clearly a lemon. I would send it back for a new unit ASAP. Good luck mate!
by L6EXPERT on 2010-11-23 09:03:49
Let us know how you´ve managed you issue mate.

I managed to solve the problem, just holding two buttons."TAP footswitches" and "ENTER amp&fx on/off " buttons, he returned to the home screen with 1A: Son Of Plexi showing in LED POD HD500, but the engineers at Line 6 have to solve this problem with new FLASH i did the upgrade FLASH 1.22, and got the same problem, and i discovered that the problem is something related to the DSP,cuz i made a patch with the greatest effect possible to be with good sound synthesized, and when i turn on my FS2 and FS3 footswitches for example, it turns itself off the screen showing the LINE6 every 5 seconds, then again I did just holding two buttons."TAP footswitches" and "ENTER amp&fx on/off " buttons, he returned to the home screen with 1A: Son Of Plexi showing in LED POD HD500 solving the problem .. so, i have helped, i'm from Brazil my English is a little weak, but i hope you understand well

Summer Reading.......
18 comments:
I am big into Christian Fiction. For Family Stories I read anyhting by Karen Kingsbury. For Mystery I love Terri Blackstock and Dee Henderson. For Historical Christian Fiction I live Tracie Peterson. My next book I am looking forward to is Take Two by Karen Kingsbury. The second book iin a new seris she has written.ReplyDelete
thanks Shelly!ReplyDelete
I love summer readings! Thanks!ReplyDelete
How funny. I just did a book recommendation post on my blog a few days ago!! :) Check it out here...ReplyDelete
Now, those are all books I have read, and I have about 30 more that I want to read. ;)
Thanks Shealynn - I have read The Hunger games too and LOVED that book! can't wait for the next one to come out!ReplyDelete
Please don't get discouraged by the title but my all time favorite book is by Laurie Notaro, There's a slight chance I might go to hell. It is hilarious and is about a woman that moves to a diff. state and enters a pagent to make friends. I won't tell you the rest because it is just that great. Hope this helps.ReplyDelete

I really like the Smart Chick series by Mindy Starnes Clark. The books are "The trouble with Tulip", "Blind dates can be murder" and "Elementary my dear Watkins." They are about Jo Tulip who writes a household hints column and finds herself inadvertently solving murders on the side. They are very entertaining and read them over and over again.ReplyDelete
I just finished reading the Time Travelers Wife half an hour ago! It's a great book, you should definitely read itReplyDelete
I am impressed you have read so much this summer! I still have not gotten my groove back with reading and having kids, I miss it.ReplyDelete
My husband read all the Elliot Pattison mysteries set in Tibet and got me to read them, I really enjoyed them. The Skull Mantra is the first in the series.
One I read a loooooong time ago is The Bone People by Keri Hulme. It's intense but good.
Definetly the Twilight Series. I just finished book# 3 and am searching for a good deal on the fourth one. I know it's written for Teenies, but it's still a good (maybe sometimes cheesy) read.ReplyDelete
oh yes! I have read the twilight series. Book one is my fav. Did you see the movie? what did you think?ReplyDelete
I watched the movie and didn't like it that much. I had not seen any previews or movie posters, etc. beforehand, so I was expecting a Johnny-Depp-kind of Edward. Unfortunately, that didn't happen ;-) It will be interesting to see what the second movie will be like. So far #1 is my favorite, too. Have to see what #4 holds in store.ReplyDelete
- Melanie Miller7/14/09, 9:58 PM
Oh Megan, I LOVE LOVE LOVE to read. I agree with Shelly on the Christian fiction. My favorite series is by Lauraine Snelling, The Red River of the North series. The first one is "An Untamed Land" and is about two couples who immigrate from Norway to North Dakota. There are six or seven in the series, so you don't have to leave these great characters. Then the kids grow up and there are series on them, too.ReplyDelete
Non christian fiction I would recommend is "The Thin Woman" (I can't remember the author). It's about an English woman who will inherit an uncle's estate if she follows several criteria first. It's funny and there are several in this series, too. Detective type.
Thanks for the ideas, gotta go back to the library now! :)
Anything by Nicholas Sparks who wrote The Notebook. I have read 5 of his books so far this summer and loved them all! Message in a Bottle, and Dear John are particularly good!ReplyDelete
I am an avid reader! Right now I am reading the 6th book in the Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon. They are historic Fantasy and super romance. My all time favorites are Jane Austin's. They always make me feel good and I always catch a smile on my face when I am reading one. A fun easy series are the No.1 Ladies Detective Agency. I just finished my first Tony Morrison book Paradise. She is good. I also love William Faulkner. I know I am all over the place. I read with my mood and my husband teaches literature so I read what his class is reading. Happy reading!!ReplyDelete
Try Mary Kay Andrews .. she is a great ,fun, girlie light read. Try HISSY FITS . She has several and I read all of them last summer. A new one came out this summer called A FIXER UPPER. I just got it.ReplyDelete
Have you read the Shopaholic Series? They are a light, fun, and quick read. I just finished Everyone is Beautiful by Katherine Ceneter. It is a pretty good one too.ReplyDelete
I also really like the Alex Cross series by James Patterson. His Women's Murder Club series is also one that I read.
I'm a big fan of anything by Jodi Picoult or Nicholas Sparks.ReplyDelete

As you can't use -r and -f together, you can circumvent this by doing the following:
php -r '$foo = 678; include("your_script.php");'
There are three different ways of supplying the CLI SAPI with PHP code to be executed:
Tell PHP to execute a certain file.
$ php my_script.php $ php -f my_script.php
Both ways (whether using the -f switch or not) execute the file my_script.php. Note that there is no restriction on which files can be executed; in particular, the filename is not required have a .php extension.
If arguments need to be passed to the script when using -f , the first argument must be --.
Pass the PHP code to execute directly on the command line.
$ php -r 'print_r(get_defined_constants());'
Special care has to be taken with regard to shell variable substitution and usage of quotes.
Read the example carefully: there are no beginning or ending tags! The -r switch simply does not need them, and using them will lead to a parse error.
Provide the PHP code to execute via standard input (stdin).
This gives the powerful ability to create PHP code dynamically and feed it to the binary, as shown in this (fictional) example:
$ some_application | some_filter | php | sort -u > final_output.txt
As with every shell application, the PHP binary accepts a number of arguments; however, the PHP script can also receive further arguments. The number of arguments that can be passed to your script is not limited by PHP (and although the shell has a limit to the number of characters which can be passed, this is not in general likely to be hit). The arguments passed to the script are available in the global array $argv. The first index (zero) always contains the name of the script as called from the command line. Note that, if the code is executed in-line using the command line switch -r , the value of $argv[0] will be just a dash (-). The same is true if the code is executed via a pipe from STDIN.
A second global variable, $argc, contains the number of elements in the $argv array (not the number of arguments passed to the script).
As long as the arguments to be passed to the script do not start with the - character, there's nothing special to watch out for. Passing an argument to the script which starts with a - will cause trouble because the PHP interpreter thinks it has to handle it itself, even before executing the script. To prevent this, use the argument list separator --. After this separator has been parsed by PHP, every following argument is passed untouched to the script.
# This will not execute the given code but will show the PHP usage $ php -r 'var_dump($argv);' -h Usage: php [options] [-f] <file> [args...] [...] # This will pass the '-h' argument to the script and prevent PHP from showing its usage $ php -r 'var_dump($argv);' -- -h array(2) { [0]=> string(1) "-" [1]=> string(2) "-h" }
However, on Unix systems there's another way of using PHP for shell scripting: make the first line of the script start with #!/usr/bin/php (or whatever the path to your PHP CLI binary is if different). The rest of the file should contain normal PHP code within the usual PHP starting and end tags. Once the execution attributes of the file are set appropriately (e.g. chmod +x test), the script can be executed like any other shell or perl script:
Exemplo #1 Execute PHP script as shell script
Assuming this file is named test in the current directory, it is now possible to do the following:
$ chmod +x test $ ./test -h -- foo array(4) { [0]=> string(6) "./test" [1]=> string(2) "-h" [2]=> string(2) "--" [3]=> string(3) "foo" }
As can be seen, in this case no special care needs to be taken when passing parameters starting with -.
The PHP executable can be used to run PHP scripts absolutely independent of the web server. On Unix systems, the special #! (or "shebang") first line should be added to PHP scripts so that the system can automatically tell which program should run the script. On Windows platforms, it's possible to associate php.exe with the double click option of the .php extension, or a batch file can be created to run scripts through PHP. The special shebang first line for Unix does no harm on Windows (as it's formatted as a PHP comment), so cross platform programs can be written by including it. A simple example of writing a command line PHP program is shown below.
Exemplo #2 Script intended to be run from command line (script.php)
if ($argc != 2 || in_array($argv[1], array('--help', '-help', '-h', '-?'))) {
This is a command line PHP script with one option.
<?php echo $argv[0]; ?> <option>
<option> can be some word you would like
to print out. With the --help, -help, -h,
or -? options, you can get this help.
} else {
echo $argv[1];
The script above includes the Unix shebang first line to indicate that this file should be run by PHP. We are working with a CLI version here, so no HTTP headers will be output.
The program first checks that there is the required one argument (in addition to the script name, which is also counted). If not, or if the argument was --help , -help , -h or -? , the help message is printed out, using $argv[0] to dynamically print the script name as typed on the command line. Otherwise, the argument is echoed out exactly as received.
To run the above script on Unix, it must be made executable, and called simply as script.php echothis or script.php -h. On Windows, a batch file similar to the following can be created for this task:
Exemplo #3 Batch file to run a command line PHP script (script.bat)
@echo OFF "C:\php\php.exe" script.php %*
Assuming the above program is named script.php, and the CLI php.exe is in C:\php\php.exe, this batch file will run it, passing on all appended options: script.bat echothis or script.bat -h.
See also the Readline extension documentation for more functions which can be used to enhance command line applications in PHP.
On Windows, PHP can be configured to run without the need to supply the C:\php\php.exe or the .php extension, as described in Command Line PHP on Microsoft Windows.
As you can't use -r and -f together, you can circumvent this by doing the following:
php -r '$foo = 678; include("your_script.php");'
On Linux, the shebang (#!) line is parsed by the kernel into at most two parts.
For example:
1: #!/usr/bin/php
2: #!/usr/bin/env php
3: #!/usr/bin/php -n
4: #!/usr/bin/php -ddisplay_errors=E_ALL
5: #!/usr/bin/php -n -ddisplay_errors=E_ALL
1. is the standard way to start a script. (compare "#!/bin/bash".)
2. uses "env" to find where PHP is installed: it might be elsewhere in the $PATH, such as /usr/local/bin.
3. if you don't need to use env, you can pass ONE parameter here. For example, to ignore the system's PHP.ini, and go with the defaults, use "-n". (See "man php".)
4. or, you can set exactly one configuration variable. I recommend this one, because display_errors actually takes effect if it is set here. Otherwise, the only place you can enable it is system-wide in php.ini. If you try to use ini_set() in your script itself, it's too late: if your script has a parse error, it will silently die.
5. This will not (as of 2013) work on Linux. It acts as if the whole string, "-n -ddisplay_errors=E_ALL" were a single argument. But in BSD, the shebang line can take more than 2 arguments, and so it may work as intended.
Summary: use (2) for maximum portability, and (4) for maximum debugging.
If you are running the CLI on Windows and use the "-r" option, be sure to enclose your PHP code in double (not single) quotes. Otherwise, your code will not run.
If you want your batch file's window stay opened after executing the PHP script just add "pause" at the last line. So it should look like:
@echo OFF
"C:\php\php.exe" script.php %*

JERUSALEM (AP) - Hundreds of pilgrims have walked the traditional Good Friday procession in Jerusalem's Old City that retraces Jesus' steps.
They hoisted wooden crosses, chanting prayers to mark the crucifixion of Jesus. Today's procession ended at the ancient Holy Sepulcher church. Later today there'll be a Mass in Bethlehem's Church of the Nativity.
This evening in Rome, thousands of Catholics will take part in the "Via Crucis" or "Way of the Cross" procession to the Colosseum led by newly elected Pope Francis.
Tonight's celebration follows an unusual Holy Thursday where the pope gave mass at a prison for minors in Rome. There, he washed the feet of twelve young prisoners, two of whom were Muslim and for the first time, two women.
This weekend's celebration will culminate with mass on Easter Sunday in St. Peter's.

Human-Building Analytics: A Sensor-Driven Approach
Buildings have a tremendous impact on our society, resource footprint, environment and health. In the past few years, there have been significant advances in gaining visibility into buildings' daily operations. As human activities and comfort impact how buildings operate, we argue that the next step is Human-Building Analytics (HBA). Specifically, HBA aims for analytics to be easier and more personalized to individual occupants, and buildings to be more adaptive to occupants' behavior.

Report: Robert Griffin III to start against Eagles
Adam Schefter of ESPN is reporting that Dr James Andrews has given Washington Redskins QB Robert Griffin III medical clearance to play against the Philadelphia Eagles in the team's season opener on Monday night, September 9.
What Washington wanted: Redskins QB Robert Griffin III will start their Monday night opener against the Eagles.
— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) August 28, 2013
Schefter, you may know, became close to Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan while they were both in Denver and he is considered a very reliable source on Redskins news for this reason.
Griffin is supposed to get final medical clearance from Dr Andrews after an exam tomorrow, but that appears to be a formality. The actual decision of whether or not to play Griffin in the season opener is with the coach, Mike Shanahan, of course, but he has made it clear he will be guided by the medical advice.

Vibe Hotels supports the Eye Foundation's julEYE campaign - June 2009
Vibe Hotels supports the Eye Foundation's julEYE campaign
PRESS RELEASE | 23 June 2009
Did you know eye disease is something that will affect all of us in our lifetime – if we live long enough? Yet 75% of visual impairment is unnecessary – it can be either prevented or treated. That is why Vibe Hotels is a proud supporter of the Eye Foundation's julEYE campaign. julEYE (formerly July) is an annual charity campaign dedicated to raising awareness and funds for eye health research. According the Eye Foundation, as we continue to live longer we will all have an eye disease in our lifetime. Yet so little is known about eye diseases and what each of us can do to maintain our eye health. Throughout June and July, julEYE merchandise such as lapel pins will be sold at Vibe Hotel receptions and also at Medina Apartment Hotels and Travelodge Hotels . Guests staying with Vibe Hotels will be invited to add $2 or more to their invoice to be donated to the julEYE campaign.
The Eye Foundation is asking Australians to use their wit and imagination to fundraise for eye health during July in a fun and poignant campaign called What would you pay to see? The month-long "julEYE" initiative is now live online at www.whatwouldyoupaytosee.com.au . julEYE is the month when individuals and teams from all around Australia will be getting away with almost anything, all in the name of charity.
Rachel Argaman, CEO, Toga Hospitality said, " Vibe Hotels are proud to be supporting the Eye Foundation's julEYE fundraising campaign. Helping out is easy – guests staying at any Vibe Hotel can choose to purchase julEYE merchandise or have a donation added to their invoice for their stay. We look forward to helping the Eye Foundation attain their fundraising goals for 2009."
Despite the common perception vision loss is not restricted to the aging and can strike at any point in life. Kirk Pengilly (an Eye Foundation ambassador) was in his 20s and touring with INXS when he was diagnosed with severe glaucoma, nearly losing his sight.
30% of children suffer from some form of visual impairment. The impact of low vision and blindness is greater than the disability burden for breast cancer, prostate cancer, melanoma and HIV/AIDS. julEYE funds crucial research into the causes, preventions and cures of eye disease with the vision of giving every Australian every opportunity to see. In 2008, the campaign raised $640,000 towards eye health research.
Vibe Hotels can be found across Sydney , Melbourne , Darwin and the Gold Coast . Each hotel is an expression of the city village in which it is located and reflects the local surrounds from beach-chic to city-slick or urban-cool, allowing travellers to experience and absorb the essence of the destination.

Please help us spread the word about The Girl Epidemic with your friends:
The Girl Epidemic along with Mahindra Foundation USA helps garner donations and support for the education of underprivileged girls in India, through Project Nanhi Kali. The project was initiated in 1996 by Anand Mahindra, Managing Director of Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd., with the aim of providing girl children primary education. In 2005 K C Mahindra Education Trust partnered with Naandi Foundation to ensure that Project Nanhi Kali provides underprivileged girls 10 years of quality education. These two nonprofits work with 21 NGOs to provide yearlong academic support and material support including school uniforms, school bag, shoes etc. In India with millions living below poverty line, it is often because of a lack of these items that parents stop sending girls to school. Project Nanhi Kali helps free the parents from this burden, improving school attendance and enabling girls to go to school with dignity. As a result, 75,000 girls in 9 states of India are receiving educational support and the project aims to reach out to 5,00,000 girls by 2014. The Girl Store
Girls are being treated like they're an infectious disease.
As a result, over a million disappear every year—many

Podcatching without an iPod
You don't need an iPod to participate in the recent phenomenon known as Podcatching. We'll show you how to receive and play back podcasts in Linux.
Podcasting is the latest buzz in the world of weblogs. Also known as time shifting audio, podcasting is a method of delivering audio streams broadcast in mp3 format via rss feeds, so that they can be downloaded automatically and played at leisure. By subscribing to an RSS feed with mp3 enclosures, you can receive new podcasts automatically for playback on your favorite mp3 player. You can think of podcasting as TiVO for radio. The name podcasting derives from Apple's iPod, but the name is inaccurate, because you do not need an iPod to listen to these files. A podcast is the broadcast program, and the act of receiving a feed is called podcatching. Although many podcasts, like many blogs, are trivial, high quality material is also available. Doug Kate at IT Conver-sations [1], for instance, has made over 300 recordings of interviews and keynote speeches from IT conferences. Podcasts contain interviews with key players in the IT industry, old and new, as well as highlights from conferences, speeches, and readings. Big media corporations like the BBC in the UK are also showing interest in the genre and releasing some of their radio broadcasts as podcasts.

The creators of the acclaimed Black Watch, director John Tiffany and choreographer Steven Hoggett, join forces with playwright/screenwriter Enda Walsh (Penelope, Hunger, The Walworth Farce) to bring the hit independent film ONCE, winner of a 2007 Academy Award for the hit song "Falling Slowly", to the stage.
On the streets of Dublin, an Irish musician and a Czech immigrant are drawn together by their shared love of music. Over the course of one fateful week, an unexpected friendship and collaboration quickly evolves into a powerful but complicated love story, underscored by the emotionally charged music that has made ONCE an international sensation.
ONCE features sets and costumes by Tony Award-winning designer Bob Crowley (The History Boys, Mary Poppins), lighting by Tony Award-winner Natasha Katz (Aida, The Coast of Utopia), and musical supervision by Martin Lowe (Mamma Mia!). Biography

Neil Moallem
I have asked this question through email and have not received a satisfactory response so I will ask it again here. WHY IS YOUR WEBSITE NOT ACCEPTING FILES THAT HAVE HAD THEIR FORMAT CONVERTED FROM "mov" to "avi"????? It is a huge problem for me because I have 3gb files that I can only upload if I convert them to a smaller file type (being avi) yet your site won't let me upload the "avi" files and the videos are too long for me to put on YouTube. WHAT DO I DO!?!?!? There are only a few days left!!!!

Abstract: During the 1980s, OSHA embarked on a project to update and consolidate the various OSHA standards that were applied in the shipbuilding, shiprepair, and shipbreaking industry. Shipyard employers are subject to both shipyard and general industry standards, and this project aimed at establishing a vertical standard for shipyard employment by addressing six shipyard employment safety standards (Confined Spaces, Welding, Access/Egress, Personal Protective Equipment, Fall Protection and Scaffolding). Proposals on these subparts were issued in November 1988 (53 FR 48092). Final rules have been issued on two of these proposals: Personal Protective Equipment and Confined Spaces. The remaining subparts in part 1915 were categorized as Phase II of the consolidation project (including general working conditions and fire protection).
This standard will revise the existing shipyard employment standards covering scaffolds and will consolidate all related and applicable 29 CFR part 1910 provisions into 29 CFR part 1915. It will develop, in part, performance-oriented standards, address current gaps in coverage, and address new technologies. About 7500 workers are potentially exposed to these hazards annually.
