Auburn needed to land a commitment from someone like Tre Williams.
The nation's No. 2 outside linebacker according to Rivals announced his commitment to the Tigers on Wednesday. He chose Auburn over Alabama, Florida and Ole Miss.
Auburn has been looking for a player like Williams to help breathe some life into the Tigers' 2014 class. He's the first high-profile pledge in the class, which currently has five commitments.
He also gives Auburn a nice win in Mobile, Ala., a city that is critical in recruiting for both Auburn and rival Alabama. Credit for landing Williams goes to Auburn co-offensive coordinator Dameyune Craig, a Mobile native who played quarterback at Auburn from 1994-97.
"My family knows Coach Craig well, I've known since day one I'd be playing for him," Williams told Rivals. "He tells me everything, he tells it how it is from bad to good. The good outweighed the bad and he's real. Ever since I told my family I was going to commit, they are thrilled with Auburn."
And Auburn's coaches will be thrilled to sell Williams' commitment to other recruits.
The SEC has reached a level of competition in recruiting we've never seen before. Eleven of the top 26 classes in the country for 2014 are in the SEC. Auburn is ranked No. 22, which is good for eighth best in the conference.
The Tigers will need to land more players like Williams if it wants to stay competitive in the SEC. There's reason for Auburn fans to hope that will happen.
Auburn landed several highly-touted prospects late in the 2013 recruiting class, including defensive tackles Montravius Adams and Ben Bradley and defensive end Elijah Daniel.
But Auburn will have to focus on keeping the commitment of Williams, who will continue to hear from other schools, including Alabama.
Kevin Scarbinsky of the Birmingham News recently compared Williams to a highly-touted 2012 prospect from Mobile, running back T.J. Yeldon.
Yeldon, who was ranked the nation's No. 2 running back by Rivals, committed to Auburn early in the recruiting process. As Mr. Scarbinsky writes, there was plenty of excitement in Auburn when the Tigers landed Yeldon's commitment.
"Williams might be the biggest name from the Mobile area to commit to Auburn since Yeldon. How did that turn out?
Yeldon was every bit as good as advertised, running for 1,108 yards as a true freshman. The trouble for Auburn was, he did it for Alabama after switching his commitment late in the fall of 2011 and then starting classes there in January of 2012."
Auburn will work to make sure Williams doesn't make the same switch. And he will surely hear from people telling him Alabama is a better choice than Auburn, especially if Alabama has another successful season in 2013.
Linebacker Reuben Foster and defensive end Dee Liner heard the same thing during last year's recruiting season. They both switched their commitments from Auburn and signed with Alabama.
This doesn't mean Williams will do the same. Craig's presence will help, and the fact Williams has two friends – offensive lineman Joshua Casher and linebacker Deshaun Davis – already committed to Auburn should be an advantage for the Tigers.
Auburn will do everything it has to do to make sure Williams stays committed and signs with the Tigers. He's that important.
Wiggins Watch continues
The nation's top basketball prospect is still undecided.
Forward Andrew Wiggins from Huntington Prep is still considering the same four schools: Kentucky, Florida State, Kansas and North Carolina.
There continues to be doubt that Wiggins will choose Kentucky because of the depth of talent the Wildcats are bringing in this fall. Will Wiggins join a class with so many minutes and shots already handed out elsewhere?
Of course, the one coach who could convince a player like Wiggins to agree to such a deal might be John Calipari.
Kentucky also has the fortune of not having to sweat Wiggins' decision. The Wildcats are already loaded, according to ESPN's Eamonn Brennan:
"If Wiggins goes elsewhere, Kentucky will still be the SEC favorite and a national title contender, if not the favorite. If Wiggins does choose to join up — if he agrees to top billing in the 'Kentucky signed Nos. 1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 11 and 18 players in the class of 2013′ phrase you'd read a lot between now and November — then we have to recalibrate out expectations much, much higher."
And that's why there's so much interest in Wiggins' decision. He's a terrific talent, but if he chooses Kentucky, a loaded team will immediately be given greater expectations.
Missouri headed to the Sunshine State
With Missouri's entrance into the SEC last year, a new goal for the Tigers became to take advantage of recruiting opportunities in the Southeast.
With a wealth of talent available in the state of Florida, it appears Missouri has started to do just that.
The Tigers received a commitment last month from defensive end Rocel McWilliams from West Florida Tech in Pensacola, Fla. His former teammate, defensive end Nate Crawford, signed with Missouri in February.
"Nate was in my ear telling me that it was a good college and that they really liked me and that we could be the state of the d-line," McWilliams told Rivals last month. "Then my parents were saying it's a good college too and how much I'd been talking with Coach (Josh) Henson it just all came into place."
Missouri hopes its success in Florida will continue. The Tigers have offered several other Florida prospects, including offensive lineman Josh Allen, linebacker Vincent Jackson and wide receiver Ryan Sousa.
As Missouri works to increase its level of talent in the ultra-competitive SEC, recruiting in one of the country's most talent-rich states looks like a good idea.
Start recruiting early
It seemed hard to believe when word started to travel that Alabama and LSU had offered eighth-grade athlete Dylan Moses from Baton Rouge, La.
But the early offers from Alabama and LSU appear to have inspired other schools. That's because Moses' offer list has grown to eight. Florida, Ole Miss, Florida State, Nebraska, Texas and UCLA have all offered Moses a scholarship, according to 247Sports.
"It's been crazy," Moses told AL.com in April. "People have been calling me, asking me what schools I'm going to go to, how does it feel, interrogating me with all these questions and stuff.
"I try not to think about it. I have the same thing like Nick Saban says, 24-hour rule. I have excitement for 24 hours and then move on to the next goal."
It has to excite LSU fans that Moses is already following Saban's lead.
Meanwhile, Moses looks like a veteran recruit compared to the most recent prospect to pop up on Mississippi State's board. It comes from the 2031 class, which means it hasn't been born yet.
Mississippi State coach Dan Mullen signed a young woman's ultrasound during a recent Bulldogs caravan stop. While an official offer hasn't been extended (and a gender hasn't been confirmed), it seems fair to say Mississippi State has established an early lead.

Customer-centricity in a multi-channel environment and using data and analytics to know your customer better were among the major topics discussed during the first day of Bank Systems & Technology's seventh annual Executive Summit.
Throughout the various sessions, the importance of customer-centricity was a recurring theme from the speakers. Andy Hernandez, EVP, channels for BBVA Compass discussed the bank's soon-to-launch online banking platform and how it was redesigned to be more customer focused and friendly.
"Understanding how customers manage their financial lives is the first step in determining which functionality will create value for them," Hernandez said.
For example, he said the bank learned that several functions of its old online banking platform, such as money movement and payments, could be more easily presented to customers and have better usability. "We wanted to give our customers very sophisticated tools that require little heavy lifting," he said.
Hernandez added that BBVA's general philosophy when it comes to its interactions with customers is to "provide Southern hospitality at internet speed."
Along those lines, David Schiff, a Director with PricewaterhouseCoopers' Financial Services Advisory practice, said much of the problem stems from the fact that as banks have added channels over the years, "we lost sight that the center of that is the customer."
Schiff said it's important for any business to have personal relationships with its customers, or as he put it, "dominating in a post-channel world means returning to pre-channel values."
Jennifer Atkins, senior vice president and head of digital sales and marketing for Wells Fargo's digital channels group, said as more customers interact with banks via digital or remote channels, it is imperative for banks to identify sales opportunities in those channels and share them across other lines of business.
Banks also need to remember to make things simple for their customers, added Bob Pucinelli, director of global financial services, information intelligence group, for EMC Corporation. Customers expect easy-to-use, self-service tools and when they contact their bank they only want to have to give out their information once, no matter how many different channels they interact with.

- Dual Flow Adjust™
DFA's kind of like Glam Metal. Two things you'd never think could go together, but somehow work like magic. Let's say you're riding a course with both monster drops and lots of braking bumps. Convention says you have to adjust your fork to handle one or the other. RockShox DFA says no, use its dual independent damping circuits to tune it to handle both. Absorbing the big hits while staying plush through the small stuff, like makeup and metal.
- Hot Rod™
You can push your bike so hard that the oil fades out before you do. So we determined the spring rate change of the shock as the shock oil heats up, and created an adjuster with a thermoplastic resin core that expands with the rising heat and viscosity changes of the shock oil. So your suspension will feel exactly the same at the bottom of a Garbanzo DH run as it did at the top. We named it Hot Rod, because "Adjuster With A Thermoplastic Resin Core" sounds like a weapon of mass destruction.

BROWNSVILLE, TEXAS – JANUARY 17, 2013 – If it was an old black and white movie, it would be entitled "Mr. Treviño Goes to Washington."
Manuel Treviño, 20, a sophomore music education major from San Benito attending The University of Texas at Brownsville and Texas Southmost College, was selected to march with the Boston Crusaders Drum & Bugle Corps at the 57th Presidential Inaugural Parade on Monday, Jan. 21 in Washington, D.C.
"It would be nice when I'm 80 years old and I have my grandchildren around that I can tell them I marched for the President of the United States," he said.
Treviño travels on Friday, Jan. 18 to Baltimore for a weekend of grueling rehearsals before arriving with the group on Inauguration Day to march. It will be the first time Treviño will visit Washington, D.C.
"I think it will probably be real when I get there," said Treviño. "It hasn't really hit me yet. They have us scheduled between 3 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. East Coast time."
The high temperature for Monday is expected to be in the upper 30s with a mixture of sun and clouds.
"When you play you do not wear gloves," said Treviño. "You do anything you can do to keep your hands warm."
Treviño auditioned for the musical group in early December at a Boston Crusaders music camp in Denton. Though he was selected to march in the parade, Treviño will find out this weekend whether he will officially be part of the group for its summer competition season.
"I really hope it shows people you are not limited," he said. "If you want to do something you can put your mind to it and just do it."
He used his percussion knowledge to work last fall with band program students at Brownsville's Pace High School. It was Jeremy Chapman, Pace's Assistant Band Director, who encouraged Treviño to look into the Boston Crusaders. "Manuel was a very positive influence on the students in his role as an educator," said Chapman. "He is a young man but he gave them great information and he delivered it in a way the students could be responsive in a positive fashion and be consistent."
"Manuel was a very positive influence on the students in his role as an educator," said Chapman. "He is a young man but he gave them great information and he delivered it in a way the students could be responsive in a positive fashion and be consistent."
Chapman attended the University of Kentucky and marched in the Cavaliers Drum and Bugle Corps with the Boston Crusaders' Ellis Hampton, the group's Percussion Caption Head.
"I saw a lot of YouTube clips and I liked how they drummed and I wanted to learn it so I could teach it," said Treviño.
He already has three years of drum and bugle corps experience as a member of the Genesis Drum and Bugle Corps.
Treviño became interested in the snare drum when he was in sixth grade at Miller Jordan Middle School.
"It's the first thing I got really good at and wanted to perfect it," he said. "Now I would like everything to be my forte."
He graduated from San Benito High School in 2011 and was a member of the school's Mighty Greyhound Marching Band.
Treviño is a member of the university's Drumline which performs at special university and community events. He is also the recipient this academic year of the $24,000 Clara Freshour Nelson Music Scholarship from the Texas Association of Music Schools.
"Manny has proven to be a model student," said Dr. Thomas Nevill, Associate Professor and Director of Percussion Studies in the Department of Music in the College of Liberal Arts. "He is highly motivated and he constantly seeks new information and his maturity as a musician and a young man grow every day. Manny is a prime example of hard work, dedication and commitment to your passion will always be rewarded."
After graduation he wants to pursue a master's degree.
"It's really for my future students," he said. "I want them to be prepared as they go to college."

Hey Chuck if you ever get up this way we will walk the grounds again like you did as a kid and we working there. It was a great place to work and really good people like your Grandfather back then had the place running great for Mr. Neuman When Mr. Neuman died Publicker and Kinsey died with him. Dave Z. Join The Swing To Kinsey
Well here are 2 pictures of the Plant taken by me back in 2011 2 yrs ago
1. The 1966 Bottling house in the winter, you could still see the Long dock area of the 2 Football fields long building.
2. Inside the old 1933 Kinesy Bottle house looking and tanks. The Building has now fallen down so much I can no longer go in there.
It is so sad to write about the terrible ending happening at Kinsey, I could never Have dreamed this would Happen!

Kinsey The Unhurried Whisky
For Unhurried Moments
Well here are two Pictures I got from Butch awhile back, not sure if I posted them before.
1. The Docks at the Publicker Plant in Phila in 1956.
2. Philip Publicker the Brother of Harry Publicker founder of Publicker Industires, founded the American Distillery right next to Publicker in Phila. This is a Picture of that Plant before they moved out west, taken in 1954.
I hope in the next week or so for some better weather to go to Kinsey again there are rumors that someone might buy it and tear everything down. And I want to explore some more while I still can.
The Bottling House which in 1966 was state of art and the worlds Largest, is now in a complete state of ruin. I also want to get some pictures but I can't of the warehouses as Vandles have painted horrible stuff on them now. So glad I got them all years ago for this work of Love for the Old Place.

Fangzilla I don't think it will happen because the cost would be millions to tear each warehouse down, and even though they are all ruined by vandals I still love going there. Just took Joe Trish's daughter and sons there last Sunday before the storms. Joe was our Project engineer and he did amazing things in Phila and at Kinsey! Joe was a wonderful man and I was Thrilled to take his family around the plant.

Well here I am posting after a lot of terrible weather! Thankfully no more snow this week. I will have to wait till all the snow is gone to take a walk around Kinsey again, but once spring gets here I will. Last time there about 4 or 5 weeks ago I found some paper work the kid vandals had tossed around. Always looking for History Pieces. Last time there the buildings are really getting bad from water leaking everywhere in them. Hoping to got in with Butch once spring gets here before all the weeds take over. Fangzilla I have thankfully had power ever since that blackout. It was terrible sleeping in full dress with a coat on and no Lights except a fflashlight!

VA Career Fair, Expo Provides Opportunities for Veterans
By Army Sgt. 1st Class Tyrone C. Marshall Jr.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 19, 2012 The Department of Veterans Affairs continues to answer President Barack Obama's call for more employment opportunities for veterans, Veterans Affairs Secretary Eric K. Shinseki said here yesterday during a "VA for Vets" career fair and exposition that provided thousands of potential job opportunities for veterans.
The event included the opportunity to prepare resumes on site and receive training on how to participate in a job interview.
Shinseki lauded the president and First Lady Michelle Obama for being "staunch advocates for veterans for the past three years."
"In 2009, President Obama issued an executive order to increase veteran employment in the federal government," he noted. "Today, veterans make up fully one-third of VA's workforce, and we have increased that goal to 40 percent. We expect to make that in the next several years."
Mary Santiago, VA's director of veterans employment services, said about 6,400 public and private employers participated in the career fair and expo, and that the event was the first of its kind to bring all of the units that help veterans together under one roof.
"So it's not only a career fair, it is an expo providing the services to all of our veterans all in the same place," she said.
"The idea is simple," he said. "Who better to help veterans than fellow veterans?"
Santiago, a nine-year Army veteran who once worked with former Secretary of State Colin L. Powell when Powell was an Army general, explained how the program helps veterans by building off their military experience.
"We're taking the experiences that they've had as veterans -- extensive experiences -- and applying them to positions that they can step in and just start doing the next day," she said.
Veterans, she noted, come to the job market fully trained.
"The biggest issue we find right now is translating their military skills to 'civvy speak,' as we call it," Santiago said. "Our program 'VA for Vets' allows them to do that through our system and through our coaches."
Santiago said the unique career fair provides a multitude of job opportunities, ranging from intelligence analysts and program managers to staff assistants and medics. "It's unbelievable the wide variety of jobs we are offering, especially from the private sector," she added.
Veterans such as Marie Allen, who served six years in the active Army followed by eight more in the Army Reserve, attended the career fair and expo hoping her experience and flexibility would help her to walk away with a job.
"Whatever I can get a job in doing, I'm flexible," Allen said. "And I have some experience. I'm a jack of all trades."
"This is more in-depth, and that is what I really need. I'm glad that it is available and accessible to us," she said. "So I'm really looking forward to finding out more things that are available to me. I can't wait. I'm excited."
Santiago said the program's goals are clear.
"Our mission here is a simple one: make sure that every veteran that comes here walks away knowing that they've been helped," she said. "What we say here is, 'Veterans, you have done your job. Now let us do ours.'"

Experiment Plans
Range Networks
Official experiment plan: "Lightweight and Resilient Cellular Networks"
We will operate a light-weight, portable 2.5G cellular network based on OpenBTS software. Our primary interest in this deployment is to gain experience in connections to Ushahidi servers and other open source packages used by the response community. We will also run experiments with RRLP (the query protocol for embedded E911 GPS receivers), handover and GPRS medium-rate data support if conditions allow.
Nuts and Bolts of Range's Stuff
Range OpenBTS cell sites present 2G GSM handsets as SIP clients in an IP network, supporting SMS and telephony. The available interfaces are:
- Telephone Calls
- SIP/RTP VoIP, including use of VoIP providers for PSTN gateway service (ie, calling to and from the "real world")
- SIP-SIMPLE SMS to other GSM/SIP clients and local applications (like sending SMS from one local phone to another)
- mapping of MO-SMS to HTTP POST transactions
- for outbound SMS through bulk gateways (like Clickatel)
- for direct connection of SMS to local applications (like Ushahidi)
- SIP-SIMPLE SMS to PLMN messaging gateways (ie, texting to and from the real world) like Tropo
- RRLP, the protocol used for talking to handset-embedded GPS receivers
- current interface is just an sqlite3 database. If someone want to map that, that would be spiffy.
- short message cell broadcasting (SMSCB)
- current interface is just an sqlite3 database
- GPRS medium-rate data (2.5G)
- handset appears as a NAT client behind the BTS IP address
Official experiment plan: "Crisis Mapping & Communications"
We will operate a crisis mapping and communications solution that provides Wi-Fi access to client computers, tablets and smart phones. This unit can also provide internet backhaul to these clients either via 3G/4G radio or satellite. We will provide a local crisis mapping solution (Ushahidi) accessible to all client devices.
Lastly, we will interface with the Range Networks "Lightweight and Resilieng Cellular Networks" experiment. We will receive SMS messages from cell phones on the cellular network into the Ushahidi crisis map, allowing any cell phone user to create a crisis report via SMS.
Tethr Details
Tethr will be providing 802.11n Wi-Fi in the 2.4GHz range. We plan to have at least one SSID available and possibly two. If we end up with a single SSID it will be "tethr". Current plan is to provide this to a large area either with an omni or sector antenna. Backhaul for this Wi-Fi will be either via 3G HSPA/HDSPA networks (AT&T or T-Mobile), or through BGAN IP satellite network. DHCP addressing for Wi-Fi clients will be a private network on the 172.20.12.0/255.255.255.0 network.
Ushahidi Crisis Mapping
Once connected to the Wi-Fi, devices can then access the Ushahidi crisis map running locally on the Tethr box. Events can be added to the crisis map from a web browser. iOS and Android users can access this map via apps on their devices as well as web browsers. SMS can be used (see below) to send a message directly to Ushahidi which will result in a new event being added to the crisis map.
The Tethr box will utilize a direct SMSC connection using Tropo to send and receive SMS messages from the Range Networks GSM network.
Using Tropo, the Tethr box can also receive incoming calls from the Range Networks GSM network and provide an IVR menu through which new events can be added to the Ushahidi crisis map.
Other Services
Range Networks Central Server
Range Networks will be running a central server on a public IP address with the following services:
- Asterisk - SIP PBX.
- smqueue - SMS store-and-forward server
- subscriber registry - provisioning and authentication database
- Tropo?
This central service will provide PSTN/PLMN interconnection through:
By running this server at a known, stable IP address we greatly simplify the problem of connecting calls and routing message between OpenBTS units in different IP subnets and connecting to the public internet through different backhaul paths.
Tropo Call and SMS Routing
Tropo will be providing routing services for calls and SMS to connect OpenBTS systems to the PSTN and PLMN (ie, the "real world"). A key feature of their service is "NAT-for-phone-numbers". We used this routing system for Burning Man 2011 and RELIEF 12-1 and it has great utility for temporary networks operated without incumbent cooperation. It works like this for outbound calls:
- OpenBTS customer calls a phone number in the real world.
- Tropo pulls a DID from a pool to be used as the caller ID for this call and records the {caller, called, DID} triplet. As long as the triplet is unique, the same DID can be used for many calls by many people.
- Tropo routes the call to the real world using the selected DID as the caller ID.
The triplet recorded in the database allows the remote party to return a call to the caller ID DID. Tropo can then route the call back to the original outbound caller using the recorded triplet.
The same procedure can be applied to SMS.
Connecting Stuff
Connecting OpenBTS SMS
Via Public SMSCs
Public SMSC are a convenient interface for applications that normally process SMS inputs, however the use of outside SMSCs is a security risk in situations where the network cannot be trusted.
Tropo servers in the RELIEF network can provide bi-direcitonal SMS to and from public SMSCs using the techniques described in "Tropo Call and SMS Routing". These text messages will appear to the receive like text messages from any other cellular network and replies will be delivered to the sending handset.
OpenBTS units in the RELIEF network can send text messages via the Clickatel service. These messages appear like normal text messages at the receiving end, but all of them will show the same originating number and there is no reply path.
Direct (non-SMSC) Connections
Avoiding public SMSCs can improve both the reliability and security of SMS applications.
With a little hacking in smqueue, text messages sent to specific numbers can be delivered to applications via HTTP GET methods.
Connection OpenBTS Speech Calls
PSTN Connections
Tropo servers in the RELIEF network can provide PSTN origination and termination using the techniques described in "Tropo Call and SMS Routing".
Link2VoIP & Gafachi
These are commercial VoIP/PSTN gateway providers. These providers can be used for outbound routing of any call but inbound routing will only work for a small set of pre-provisioned handsets.
Local SIP Connections
Normal Speech Calls
Any local SIP endpoint can be assigned an extension for local call routing. If the handset is provisioned with a telephone number, calls can be bi-directional.
Emergency Calls
Emergency calls get special-case routing. These calls can be routed to any SIP endpoint, including an on-site simulated PSAP or TOC.
OpenBTS nodes support RRLP, the protocol used to communicate with GPS receivers in E911-compliant handsets. The information is current just dumped into an sqlite3 database on each BTS unit. Remote access to this information would be simple though a CGI program running in the web server on each unit, but someone would need actually write that in time for the exercise.
Sites of primary interest (stuff we need to connect):
- MedWeb truck: MedWeb server(s), VSAT terminal, one 10W rack-mount OpenBTS unit on push-up mast. This site has public IP addresses.
- Tethr ops center: Tethr server, BGAN terminal, one 1W pole-mount OpenBTS unit on push-up mast.
- Range ops center: BGAN terminal, one 1W pole-mount OpenBTS unit on push-up mast, one 100 mW OpenBTS desktop unit.
- Range central: server at public IP address running Asterisk, sipauthserve, smqueue, Prism and Tethr. This site has public IP addresses.
A BGAN site gets a single public IP address via DHCP and the local subnet is NAT'd behind that address.
Please do not publish the public IP addresses associated with any of these sites.
Sites of lessor interest (stuff we might connect if there's time and interest):
- Lockheed-Martin's COW: various 2G/3G/4G systems plus a SIP switch of some kind. IP addressing unknown.
Traffic Types
- Ushahidi SMS. These are SMS messages to and from Ushahidi servers, entering smqueue as SIP SIMPLE and relayed to Ushahidi via an HTTP short code.
- Medical SMS. These are application-specific SMS messages for MedWeb, entering smqueue as SIP SIMPLE and relayed to MedWeb servers via an HTTP short code.
- Normal SMS. These are handled locally by smqueue and gatewayed to/from the PLMN by Prism/Tropo/Voxeo?.
- Normal Speech. Speech calls are switched by local Asterisk servers, relayed as needed to Range central and gatewayed to/from the PSTN by Prism/Tropo/Voxeo? or Link2Voip via Range central.
- SOS Speech. Emergency calls are routed to local PAP2 adapters or designated cellphones via a local Asterisk server.

- MedWeb truck
In San Francisco:
- Range central
In this topology, all of the Tethr and Range equipment is tied into a common subnet (we'll call "McMillan") with AirMax bridges. McMillan, MedWeb and Range central connect through the pubic internet via satellite.
Ushahidi SMS Routing
Ushahidi SMS at McMillan goes to the local Tethr server via HTTP. MedWeb Ushahidi SMS goes to the Tethr server at Range central via HTTP. These servers sync up whenever they are in contact.
Medical SMS Routing
All medical SMS goes to MedWeb via HTTP to their public IP address.
Normal SMS Routing
All non-short-code SMS gets relayed by local smqueue instances to the smqueue server at Range central.
Normal Speech Routing
All normal speech calls are routed in the local subnet when possible, otherwise relayed to Range central.
SOS Speech Routing
Emergency speech calls are routed to SIP endpoints within the local subnet.
Topology #2: Range Takes a Field Trip to the FOB
At McMillan Field:
- Tethr ops center
At the FOB:
- Range ops center
At God-knows-where:
- MedWeb truck
In San Francisco:
- Range central
In this topology, each site is a different NAT subnet and they all connect through the pubic internet via satellite.
Ushahidi SMS Routing
Ushahidi SMS at Tether ops center goes to the local Tethr server via HTTP. All other Ushahidi SMS goes to the Tethr server at Range central via HTTP. These servers sync up whenever they are in contact.
Medical SMS Routing
All medical SMS goes to MedWeb via HTTP to their public IP address.
Normal SMS Routing
All non-short-code SMS gets relayed by local smqueue instances to the smqueue server at Range central.
Normal Speech Routing
All normal speech calls are routed in the local subnet when possible, otherwise relayed to Range central.
SOS Speech Routing
Emergency speech calls are routed to SIP endpoints within the local subnet.

"When I ordered these Save the Dates I changed all the fonts and even the positioning of some of the wording. After sending in my order, I was sent back a proof, which had some changes that the professionals thought I would like. I simply asked them to change it back to the way I originally had it, which they did very quickly. We were extremely happy with how these came out, and the color purple is amazing. We wanted something that looked formal, but also whimsical and fun, and these cards were perfect. Our order came quickly, and I even had to reorder some more which came even faster."
"I had these personalized with the "sassy" and "mandarin" colors. They came out perfect, just what I wanted. They look amazing and I'm very happy with them. The ONLY criticism I have is that the print seems a little small. I also think that it should be easier to color customize- maybe an option where you can change the colors and actually SEE what it might look like without having to order. And if every invitation could be customized easily by just clicking your colors or at least an explanation that you CAN customize, you just have to write your colors in the special instructions box. I love them! thank you!"
"I ordered the Save the Date Cards in Azelea. The card is beautiful. The only thing I can say that is negative is that I thought the gold portion would glimmer, you know, like real gold. Other than that it was perfect!"
"The decorative pattern and bold contrast on this card are at once pleasing and dramatic. This card designed by Lady Jae appears to have been inspired by European doorways. Let your imagination guide you to customize it in any color of your choice for a small fee of $20."

|Sticky Tag:
Add os_init0 to allow for some really early OS inits. On Linux, os_init can re-exec lisp to set up the correct personality. Not normally a problem, but if any output happens before os_init is called, the output appears to happen twice. So add os_init0 to do this early on, before any output. This is a bit of a kludge. lisp/lisp.c: o Call os_init0 early in main. lisp/Linux-os.c: o Move the personality stuff from os_init to os_init0. lisp/Darwin-os.c: lisp/FreeBSD-os.c: lisp/NetBSD-os.c: lisp/OpenBSD-os.c: lisp/hpux-os.c: lisp/irix-os.c: lisp/mach-os.c: lisp/osf1-os.c: lisp/solaris-os.c: lisp/sunos-os.c: o Add dummy implementation of os_init0. These OSes don't (currently) need anything special. lisp/os.h: o Declare os_init0.
Linux-os.c: o Follow CMUCL coding style. o Argv and envp are const char*. os.h: lisp.c: Darwin-os.c: FreeBSD-os.c: NetBSD-os.c: OpenBSD-os.c: hpux-os.c: irix-os.c: mach-os.c: osf1-os.c: solaris-os.c: sunos-os.c: o argv and envp are const char *.
Patch from Stelian Ionescu on cmucl-imp, 2010/02/01: When run on a kernel compiled without COMPAT_BRK CMUCL segfaults, so I copied the kludge used by SBCL - check the current personality, and if necessary, enable ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE and re-exec itself. Linux-os.c: o Check for personality and rexec if necessary. os.h: o New prototype for os_init needed because it needs argv and envp. lisp.c: Darwin-os.c: FreeBSD-os.c: NetBSD-os.c: OpenBSD-os.c: hpux-os.c: irix-os.c: mach-os.c: osf1-os.c: solaris-os.c: sunos-os.c: o Update call to os_init, which needs argv and envp now.
Always use prototype style function definitions. Consistently use the void keyword to specify empty parameter lists.
Merge code from main branch of 2005-12-17 to ppc gencgc branch. Still doesn't work of course.
Indent all source files using GNU indent using the config in .indent.pro.
Replace all uses of the old b{copy,zero} byte string functions with the equivalent standard C mem{cpy,move,set} functions.
- fix a signed/unsigned cast bug that was prevented the auto-gc-trigger from functioning correctly when using certain dynamic-space sizes (for platforms that don't have an internal gc trigger). - added a few #include files to avoid compiler warnings - changed some #ifdef semantics: DEBUG activates additional assertions, and PRINTNOISE activates debugging statements.
Fixed getrusage stub to correctly compute the microseconds.
Fixed errors in last checkin (fixing getrusage) and added getpagesize.
Fixed getrusage to return the user and system times.

Exporting iTunes Playlist Folder?
Using iTunes 10 with Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
I am creating a playlist to accompany a book "Classical Music Top 40" by Anthoney J. Rudel. The book has 40 "chapters" and each is a commentary that can be read while listening to a certain piece of classical music.
iTunes is not classical music friendly and since most classical music pieces are comprised of several separate tracks I cannot separate each of the 40 pieces on a single playlist.
What I have done is create a Playlist Folder named TOP 40 CLASSICAL. In that folder are 40 separate playlists, numbered 1-40, each playlist is for a separate piece of classical music and has anywhere from 1 to 25 tracks. Since the each playlist is numbered they are kept in order to follow along with the book.
I have found out how to export Playlists but is there anyway to export the entire Playlist Folder to keep everything ordered?
|Feb 11, 2013, 05:56 PM
Not yet. The Apple Support forum was not able to come up with a quick solution either. The best they could do was to tell to clone my entire 280Gb iTunes library and then delete everything else other than that folder which could then be downloaded onto a flash drive. May try it sometime.

Academic Honesty:As a learning community, the University upholds the highest standards of academic integrity in all its academic activities, by faculty, staff, administrators and students. Academic integrity involves much more than respecting intellectual property rights. It lies at the heart of learning, creativity, and the core values of the University. Those who learn, teach, write, publish, present, or exhibit creative works are advised to familiarize themselves with the requirements of academic integrity and make every effort to avoid possible offenses against it, knowingly or unknowingly. Park University 2010-2011 Graduate Catalog Page 20
Plagiarism involves the appropriation of another person's ideas, interpretation, words (even a few), data, statements, illustration or creative work and their presentation as one's own. An offense against plagiarism constitutes a serious academic misconduct. Although offenses against academic integrity can manifest themselves in various ways, the most common forms of offenses are plagiarism and cheating. Plagiarism goes beyond the copying of an entire article. It may include, but is not limited to: copying a section of an article or a chapter from a book, reproduction of an art work, illustration, cartoon, photograph and the like and passing them off as one's own. Copying from the Internet is no less serious an offense than copying from a book or printed article, even when the material is not copyrighted.
Plagiarism also includes borrowing ideas and phrases from, or paraphrasing, someone else's work, published or unpublished, without acknowledging and documenting the source. Acknowledging and documenting the source of an idea or phrase, at the point where it is utilized, is necessary even when the idea or phrase is taken from a speech or conversation with another person.
Park University 2010-2011 Graduate Catalog Page 20
Attendance Policy:
Instructors are required to maintain attendance records and report absences. Excused absences can be granted by the instructor, for medical reasons, school sponsored activities, and employment-related demands, including temporary duty. Students are responsible for any missed work. Absences for two successive weeks, without approved excuse, will be reported to the Director of the individual graduate program, or to the Executive Director for the Graduate School, for appropriate action. Students with such a record of absences, without an approved excuse, may be administratively withdrawn from the class and notified that an "F" will be recorded, unless the student initiates official withdrawal from the class(es).Park University 2010-2011 Graduate Catalog Page 24
Disability Guidelines:Park University is committed to meeting the needs of all students that meet the criteria for special assistance. These guidelines are designed to supply directions to students concerning the information necessary to accomplish this goal. It is Park University's policy to comply fully with federal and state law, including Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, regarding students with disabilities. In the case of any inconsistency between these guidelines and federal and/or state law, the provisions of the law will apply. Additional information concerning Park University's policies and procedures related to disability can be found on the Park University web page: http://www.park.edu/disability .

text: If you require snaking once a year something ain't right. I would definitely recommend a camera inspection of the line. Seeing what is wrong and where it is located is the first step in having a trouble free line. Once the size of the area to be repaired and its depth is known you will be able to get a price for repair. It is then that you can decide if you want it fixed or you can keep on snaking til one day when even that won't work.

(BPT) - Elana Meyers' dream of winning an Olympic medal began at a young age. Growing up in Georgia, she participated in a myriad of sports to feed her desire for competition, including basketball, competitive dance, soccer, track and softball. Today, the 29-year-old Meyers is ready to lay everything on the line in pursuit of her dream as the pilot of the U.S. women's bobsled team.
After joining the sport only seven years ago, Meyers is headed to compete for Team USA at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games.
The 2010 Olympic bronze medalist took a moment to reflect on her career and future aspirations following her silver medal finish at the World Cup competition in Lake Placid, N.Y., last December.
You had intentions to compete on the U.S. softball team in the 2012 Olympic Games. Did you always have ambitions to become an Olympian?
EM: Since the age of nine, I had a dream to compete in the Olympics. My dad played in the National Football League, and my sisters and I were always involved in sports, so my family always supported my athletic dreams. I originally had aspirations to compete on the U.S. softball team during the 2012 Olympic Games, but softball was removed from the roster before I had the chance to compete.
Now you're competing in bobsledding, which is quite the switch. What inspired you to give the sport a shot?
EM: One evening, my parents were watching bobsledding on TV and suggested I try the sport, but I honestly wasn't overly interested. Softball was my main focus. Later, when softball was cut, I contacted Todd Hays [U.S. women's bobsled coach] on a whim, and he invited me to the training center in Lake Placid. I haven't left since. Bobsledding is exciting and addicting. I feel like a kid every day I'm on the track.
You hold a bachelor's degree in exercise science and a master's degree in sports management from George Washington University. You're now studying to obtain an MBA from DeVry University's Keller Graduate School of Management. How have you been able to pursue your academic and athletic pursuits simultaneously?
EM: I have always been a student athlete, so I am comfortable focusing on school and my future career alongside training full time. I am learning a great deal from Keller, and feel like I'm rounding out and enhancing my prior studies. After I retire from competing, I want to leverage both my business training and athletic experiences to help future Olympic athletes. My dream job would be to become the CEO of the United States Olympic Committee (USOC). I hope my studies in finance, economics and management will help me get there one day.
When you're not on the track, what do you like to do to unwind or to have fun?
EM: I am an avid reader, and I'm currently learning Russian ahead of traveling to Sochi. I'm also getting married in April 2014 to Nic Taylor, who used to be on the men's U.S. bobsled team and trained with me in Lake Placid. He proposed during the medal ceremony at the World Championships in St. Moritz, Switzerland when I was on the podium. It was so special and so fitting for us.
What advice do you have for young athletes who have their eyes set on competing in the Olympic Games?
EM: This is what I say to any aspiring Olympian who I have the opportunity to meet - 'as long as you believe in yourself and put your mind to it, you can achieve it.' All athletes have emotional and physical ups and downs, but it's important to stay focused. Don't let anyone tell you that you can't achieve your dream.
DeVry University is an official education provider of the United States Olympic Committee. To learn more about Meyers or other Team USA student athletes who are training to compete in the 2014 Olympic Winter Games in Sochi, visit newsroom.devry.edu.

MONTROSE — In a perfect scenario, Montrose residents could enjoy the amenities of a new recreation center paid for by grants, private funding partnerships and local fund raising said Montrose Recreation District Executive Director Ken Sherbenou.
If these costs were not covered, however, residents could opt for a sales tax increase lower than other western Colorado communities that have built modern recreation centers.
At a public meeting on Thursday, Aug. 22, the Montrose Recreation District and members of its board presented an updated plan to 175 members of the community for a new recreation center in Montrose.
"Overall it was very positive," Sherbenou said, adding that "the exit surveys we gave of those attending reflect a lot of enthusiasm and excitement about this possibly."
In April 2012 a proposal of 0.2 percent sales tax increase for 10 to 14 years failed at the ballot box, 2,372 for and 2,971 against.
Sherbenou said not only did if fail due to those weary of a tax increase, but, he said, because "the overall plan wasn't good enough."
What's Needed, say MRD officials, is a place where residents could improve their health, enrich and prolong their lives – and a pace that's an economic driver for strengthening the community.
"Most said they saw the need and benefit, but it wasn't right," Sherbenou said of the 2012 initiative. Of its failure with voters, he said, "We have taken that message to heart, and hopefully the improvements are something we can agree on.
The biggest change from the 2012 plan was the lack of land-acquisition: The district had plans, drafted on paper, but no place to build.
Months after the April vote, the MRD purchased 26 acres located off Woodgate Road for $300,000. The district had budged $800,000 from lottery funds to buy land, and was able to bank $500,000, thanks to the Woodgate purchase.
"When we were researching properties," Sherbenou said, the Woodgate Road site "was determined to be our top site.
"It's accessible and it's visible," he added.
MRD estimates Montrose usage of a new facility would be about 431 users per day – more than Delta, but lower than Durango, two Western Slope towns that have built new rec centers in recent years.
Currently within the MRD, there are an estimated 400 basketball players, 300 volleyball and 200 indoor soccer players, using nine facilities year-round.
The question now is how to pay for it.
Sherbenou said if the district does not pay for the entire cost, after grants, funding partnerships or donations, a tax increase could face voters in 2014.
At last week's presentation, MRD representatives said voters could opt for a 0.5 percent sales tax increase – less than half of what voters in Cortez, Fruita, Durango, Gunnison and Delta passed to fund new community rec centers.
Sherbenou said he didn't know exactly what the Montrose increase would be, but that the MRD would have to wait and determine how much would be needed to cover the gap in funding. The MRD has studied the building efforts in nearby communities, as well as determined that Montrose is similar to those communities, in both demographics and political views.
Sherbenou said a stronger relationship with the City of Montrose has made the new plan better, and that results from the Aug. 22 exit surveys determined that 93 percent of those in attendee "strongly" agreed the new plan was headed in the right direction.

Sherbenou said results from those surveys will be used in the MRD's future decisionmaking process.
The MRD plans to unveil an updated plan at a Nov. 10 meeting at the Montrose Aquatic Center. The public is also encouraged to attend monthly MRD board meetings. The Nov. 10 meeting will begin at 6 p.m.
A tour of Aquatic Center during its upcoming maintenance closure is scheduled for Wednesday, Sept. 4, at 11:30 a.m.
