Whatever your political persuasion, ignorance is no excuse for bad legislation.
The recent debate over anti-piracy bills showed just how serious a threat ignorance can be. Sponsors of the Senate's Protect IP Act and the House's Stop Online Piracy Act might have had good intentions, but their attempts to put those intentions into enforceable and politically palatable provisions fell woefully short.
The bills featured broad-brush language that, according to many experts, created the potential for all manner of unintended consequences. Fortunately, the high-profile nature of the bills made it easy for Google, Wikipedia and other opponents to rally public support for their cause. In short, many people would argue, lawmakers were saved from their own mistakes.
We might not be so lucky next time. This is especially a concern with any IT-related legislation that addresses internal government operations. In areas such as cybersecurity, acquisition and program management — where the experts lack the bully pulpit held by industry giants — well-intentioned bad ideas could make it into law and create more problems than they solve.
And ignorance can lead to an even more insidious problem: passivity. If members of Congress are not comfortable with the technology involved, they might choose not to act at all. For example, budget pressures in the coming years will force the appropriations committees to make some tough choices. IT programs that defy easy explanation could get short shrift simply because they fall outside lawmakers' comfort zone.
What the legislative branch needs now is a handful of lawmakers who can step up and take on technology initiatives. It's a tall order. It requires them to dedicate the resources (i.e., staff time) needed to understand complex problems and devise appropriate solutions. And it calls for them to marshal the support of other lawmakers who are not so inclined. Without such champions, ignorance will exact its toll.
Any takers?

Why are legal experts making technology decisions - at all? I don't attempt to make decisions about, say, foreign policy. Why would the lawyers feel they have the ability to make good decisions about technology? Sarbanes/Oxley is a good example of legal folks overstepping their bounds *with good intentions*, costing American companies Billions for little real benefit. This type of snafu is what gives our mentally challenged tea party folks cred...
Having served as an elected official, your premise is wrong. Political persuasion for bad legislation requires ignorance as bedrock, with large helpings of arrogance envy, jealousy, and silly minded spite. Much legislation today founded on a faulty sense of entitlement, envy, and poor impulse control. Stop Online Piracy Act is not dead by any means. In the beginning, copyrights were not forever. We need to start with when a copyright ends, fair use of a copyright product and when and how public domain starts.

I recently came across an issue with Windows 2003 (apparently it also exists in other versions too), where if an SSL/TLS server is requesting client certificate authentication and it has more than 16KB of trusted certificate DNs, Internet Explorer (or any other app that uses schannel.dll) is unable to complete the SSL handshake. (In a nutshell, the server breaks the message into chunks of 2^14 bytes, as per RFC 2246 sec. 6.2.1, but Schannel wasn't written to support that. I've gotten confirmation from Microsoft support that this is a flaw in Schannel and that they're considering fixing it in a future release.)
So I'm trying to find a way to easily parse through my trusted certificates (I use Apache as my server, so all of them are in PEM format) to get the total ASN.1-format length of the DNs (which is how they get sent over the wire during the handshake), and thereby see if I'm getting too close to the limit. I haven't yet been able to find a way to do this, though: the OpenSSL asn1parse function comes close, but it doesn't seem to provide a way to get the ASN.1 sequence for just the issuer name, which is what I need.
Any suggestions?

A scientific discussion recently held on Sophien Kamoun Twitter account (@KamounLab) aimed to define effector proteins in less than 140 characters. I wasn't unable to find a final definition, but I guess I won't be lying if the two last proposal are fused as below. As stated in this blog (http://armchairbiology.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/what-is-this-effector-thing-anyway_22.html) "in the end it seemed that everyone went away thinking that an understanding had been reached"
"An effector is a molecule released by an organism that acts directly to disrupt, or modify, the normal physiology and biochemistry of a host"

This review is from:
Mona Lisa Darkening (Mass Market Paperback)
I am going to admit that I have a serious problem with the author Sunny -- one I have never had with any other author before, even other really bad authors. I have not read this book. I will NEVER read this book. Please see my reviews on her other two books that I did mistakenly order and read.
Money does not grow on trees people, don't throw it away on the undeserving peons of this world -- people like Sunny with ZERO talent who are merely connected enough to get their garbage published.
Just say no.

This is still the best rescource for a complete beginner
Oct. 28 2008
This review is from:
Head First HTML with CSS & XHTML (Paperback)
We're almost in 2009, and this title is still the BEST resource for the total novice to standards-based (X)HTML and CSS.
Ive been involved in web design for almost two years now, and this was the first book I picked up on the subject, and lucky for me, I made the right choice, because this title set me off into the often complex world of (XHTML) and CSS the right way -- no outdated HTML practices here from way back in the day.
The most refreshing thing is the simplicity of how they achieve this. The book assumes you know NOTHING -- and even though you personally may know some things, the lack of assumptions, really forces you to take things from the ground up. One. Step. At. A. Time. And their enforcing of the W3C standard and of accessibility is also admirable, as by the end, you too will be a fan.
In the beginning I was put off a tad by the "cutsyness" of it, and wondered if I was actually going to come out the end ABLE to do anything; but as it turned out -- I was. By the end of this book you will understand things better, but you will be able to apply what you've learned right away to your own projects.
Pointers: (what worked for me)
-- Start working on your own projects right away. Work on your own stuff as you're going through the book and learning new things. It will help the material stick. And it will show you how real-world design can be, even if on a minimal level.
-- Work through this book daily, or every other day, otherwise nothing is likely to stick and you will be frustrated and have to go back to the beginning.
-- Read the blogs of well-known and respected designers to gain a deeper insight into the web and design.
-- Pick up two good reference books, one for CSS, one for HTML. Strictly reference books, as you will need them.
-- Pick up an intermediate/advanced book on CSS, like Beginning CSS Web Development: From Novice to Professional to learn more advanced CSS not covered in this book.
Finally: take your time and do things right. As long as you're working through this book on a regular basis, there is no need to rush.

This review is from:
On the Prowl (Mass Market Paperback)
This gets three stars because the author "Sunny" is a freakin' HACK.
"Alpha and Omega", the first story by Patricia was great. I've never read her novels, but I may just give them a shot.
"Buying Trouble" by Karen Chance was my favourite -- very evocative prose.
"Inhuman" by Eileen Wilks was decent, though not my favourite.
To the reviewer below me -- you're a moron. clearly you cannot read to begin with else you would have known off the bat that this was a short story collection -- what with the names of four different people in large typeface on the front cover and all. Stupid.

please give me back my money and the time out of my life I wasted
June 24 2008
This review is from:
Lucinda Darkly (Paperback)
I mistakenly ordered this along with Sunny's "Mona Lisa Awakening" under some misguided notion tht I had found a fresh new dark erotic fantasy author. Well, I was wrong. So very wrong. As I mentioned in my review for Mona Lisa Awakening, this "novel" reads like bad fanfiction. They both do. Granted, I never made it through Lucinda Darkly, bcause it just got so unbelievably bad that I couldn't put myself through the horror of it.
The writing is atrocious -- ATROCIOUS. The grammar is, uh, expiramental. The characters are unbelievable. The erotica is wooden and not remotely sexy -- oh and by the way, Sunny, characters doing each other within a page of their first meeting really kills any possibility of supense.
Turns out Sunny is married to a famous author which explains how this drivel got published in the first page. I guess it wasn't a deal with Satan after all -- though that's probably where the good reviews this garbage is getting are coming from.

Very silly
Jan. 20 2008
This review is from:
Female Submission: The Journals of Madelaine (Paperback)
I was expecting an honest and erotic account of Claudia's story as she delves into the submissive side of her personality, but instead was forced to endure pages and pages of bad writing and purple prose.
Her relationship with her first dom falls apart, yet we're never told why. I actually had to reread several sections to see if I missed somethig -- but alas, no, it's merely been left out of the novel, or glossed over I suppose I should say. And probably because of something that Claudia herself did -- though heaven forbid her massive ego admits to it! Her ego and blatant narcasism fairly scream out at you from the page.
She describes herself as beautiful and desirable while constantly putting down every other woman who seems to not like her, as they are of course jealous. Every man and woman want her. Every woman seems to pale in comparison to her -- physically and character wise, yet looking at her picture on the back cover really shoots her supposed beauty straight into Hell. All this tells me is that she's a massively insecure and confused woman who can supposedly orgasm multiple times with very little prodding -- yeah right!
And even more annpoying then her personality, though I suppose this is an extension of her stupidity, is her use of British slang, such as "quim" to describe the female anatomy. That kind of posturing, much like Madonna's fake British accent, is friggen annoying. You're American -- my condolences and all -- but just stop already.
The Story of O this is NOT so save your money and look elsewhere.

Mixed feelings
Dec 11 2007
This review is from:
Deerskin (Mass Market Paperback)
I think my true rating for this novel hovers somewhere between 3 and 4, and to be honest, having just finished this book -- I'm not entirely sure how I feel about it.
Some points:
-- In the begining, I really enjoyed the somewhat vague voice of Lissar as it seemed to fit well with the fairy tale elements of the novel, but by the end I found it frustrating, as despite the very detailed descriptions of pain, sorrow, misery, etc. we were given, I never felt as though I actually got to know anything about her.
-- Why did her physical healing seemingly take an insanely long amount of time? Months? Years? She really spends five years in the mountains??? Why does it seem only like one winter before spring arrives and Lissar ventures from her hut again?
-- I like my villains fully developed. The father was not. In the end as she confronts him -- it's very dissapointing. I would have liked a greater insight into his mind.
-- I really wish that Ash had been made a male dog instead, because I couldn't distinguish in many sentences whether Lissar or Ash were being refferred to!
-- The writing is quite beautiful and intelligent and suprisingly free of cliches, especially considering this is a fantasy novel -- but it could have done with some more careful editing because many sentences are rather clunky and confusing.
-- As Lissar is an only child and the princess and heir of a vast and rich kingdom, I find it hard to believe that either her parents or court would have actually neglected her to the point that they did.
-- Her journey of self-discovery and healing is the essential part of this novel, but did it have to be so LONG and REPETITIVE?
-- The romance was dissapointing. Very, very dissapointing. Many others have commented on this as well -- but I just had to restate it.
Regardless, I did enjoy the story, but it will not become one of my favourites and as such, I think it will be a very long time before I reread it.

This review is from:
Sebastian (Mass Market Paperback)
Why was this written? Why was actually picked up for publication? Why was this sent out into stores with such horrible amd choppy edting?
I'm a huge fan of the Black Jewels Trilogy, sure they have their problems -- repetiveness and cliches namely -- but they're fun and suspenseful reads, a break from reality and more serious works of fiction. But Sebastien? The whole novel seems so contrived and rushed and just utterly ridiculous.
Bishop seems to have a serious problem with putting every single one of her female characters in horribly abusive homes where either rape, or attempted rape, finally drives them out. Every. Single. Caracter. Jaenelle, Marian, Lynnea, Surreal. Having a troubled past does NOT an interesting or complex character make -- characterization does! Give me characters who's actions and words make me sympathize with them, not just the fact that daddy tried to "put it in" one night and mommy hates them and no one understands them and blah blah blah. That type of of angst might work beter on the YA audience, but these novels are not aimed at young adults but *Adults* who don't buy into this type of misery so easily.
Sebastien and Lynnea suffer immensly from a lack of any redeeming qualities that would make anyone truly sympathize with them. Sebastien, a half-incubus and alleged bad-boy, does little more then drink coffee and brood constantly over how bored he is by life. Lynnea, a vapidly naive hick, suddenly appears, and we're to believe that she's the answer? The romance between them is so unbelievable and forced -- and for the love of God can Bishop write romance without inclding utterly trivial nonense to keep her characters appart? Sebastien keeps away from Lynnea because he fears he's "too dark"? Um, yeah. Whatever.
The lack of erotica or sensuality that made the Black Jewels so engrossing is also comletely lacking here, yet this is marketed as erotic fiction? For whom exactly? Christian youth groups?
And one last complaint, in a list of many: Phallic Delights! Bishop seems to find this inclusion so very clever -- so very, very VERY clever that the reader is subjected to descriptions of this tasty treat every five pages or so. Not a single meal or visit to the local tavern can be complete without describing to us what Phallic Delights are.
So. Very Sad. All of it.
This had such unbelievable potential, and it was dashed to nothing. I think Bishp must have been under intense publishing deadlines (or intense delusions of grandeur after success of the Black Jewels) but there is no excuse for this sloppy piece of trash being published.

I've got a Flip video recorder and want to put the videos from it onto CD so that they can be played in a standard DVD player. (I can't make DVDs, as I only have a CD burner.) I've exported the videos from Flip to MP4 files and figured I could use Windows Media Player 11 (in XP) to burn them to a VCD. However, when I try to play the files in WMP, it complains that they're of zero length.
I'm hoping that if I convert them to .MPG format, I might have a bit more luck. Is there a simple way to do this without installing anything of dubious quality on my PC? (I'm keen to avoid spyware, etc.)

From "Lennon Remembers":
Interviewer: Why did you choose to refer to Dylan as Zimmerman and not as Dylan?
John: Because Dylan is bullshit, Zimmerman is his name.
Yoko: He changed his name.
John: You see, I don't believe in Dylan. I don't believe in Tom Jones either in that way. Zimmerman is his name. My name isn't John Beatle, it's John Lennon. You know, just like that.
(For the record, "Tom Jones" was born "Thomas John Woodward". Wasn't aware that there was anyone named "John Beatle".)
I remember George saying 'Blimey, he's always talking about "Yesterday", you'd think he was Beethoven or somebody' - Paul McCartney

Cut 2 pieces of Velcro 4"–6" long, one of the hook side and one of the loop side. Sew one to the front of the pillow (right side), along the edge, between the cut line and the sew line. Sew the other to the matching area on the back of the pillow.
Place the front and back pieces of the pillow together, with the fronts of the fabric (right sides) facing each other. Starting at one edge of the Velcro pieces, sew all the way around along the sew line. Make sure not to sew over the top of the Velcro or you won't be able to turn the pillow right-side out!
Hot-glue the motor body onto the back of the battery holder, making sure not to glue the part that rotates. To prevent the stuffing from catching in the motor, you need to cover the motor. We used the top of a plastic spoon, hot-glued on, but you can use parts of a plastic milk jug or anything that fits. Make sure there's enough room for the motor to rotate all the way around.

Federal aid helps low-income homeowners
Published: Wednesday, January 18, 2012 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, January 17, 2012 at 6:24 p.m.
In 2006, Nora Gower fulfilled the
Homeowners in Henderson and Transylvania counties who want to apply for housing rehabilitation grants should call Benchmark CMR
at 800-650-3925 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and ask for Cindy Ramsey. Polk County residents should call the Isothermal Planning and Development Commission at 828-
287-2281. The application deadline is Feb. 1.
Mobile homes are not eligible.
Henderson County applicants must not exceed the following household income limits to qualify.
Polk and Transylvania residents must meet slightly different guidelines, available from their respective county administration offices.
Household size Annual income
1 person $32,300
2 people $36,390
3 people $41,500
4 people $46,100
5 people $49,800
6 people $53,500
7 people $57,200
8 people $60,900
American dream of purchasing her very own house for the first time. It didn't take long, however, for the 64-year-old
Hendersonville resident to discover the other side of homeownership.
The house on White Sparrow Drive — a few blocks off Seventh Avenue — had water seeping underneath it. The back deck was rotting. The original windows were not properly sealed, allowing cold air to flow in freely, thus raising Gower's monthly heating bills.
For Gower, who hasn't worked in years because of a medical condition and receives disability benefits, every penny matters.
"There was a lot of work that needed to be done, and it was sort of like, 'OK, how am I going to get all of this done?' " Gower said. "I'm on a fixed income, so I like to be able to save money to have stuff done, and the small things I did do. I replaced the baseboards in every room by myself; I'm pretty self-sufficient."
Still, she needed help, and it arrived in the form of a community development block grant — federal funds distributed by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development every three years to the state, which then allocates $400,000 to each county to rehabilitate eight to 10 homes owned and occupied by low-income residents.
Applications are now being accepted for the program, and Gower said she'd like to see others take advantage of the opportunity she received during the previous grant cycle.
She began the application process in June 2008, and in November Saluda-based contractor Quality Homes & Development completed more than $30,000 worth of repairs and improvements on her home. They included the installation of all new windows and siding, plumbing and electrical work, replacement of bathroom fixtures and a new central heating and air-conditioning system.
"Gosh, it sure does make a difference — going in every room and it's the same temperature — because before all I had was the baseboard heat," Gower said. "I had a monitor heater, but the monitor heater was in the kitchen, so the way the house was arranged it didn't heat a whole lot (of space)."
Henderson County Planning Director Anthony Starr said the amount of each individual contract is based on work needed in the home — typically major repairs such as plumbing, electrical and fixing holes in roofs and walls — usually ranging from $20,000 to $40,000.
"Because of income limits set by the state for this project, the recipients end up being folks that otherwise probably would never afford these kinds of repairs," Starr said. "They're typically folks that live paycheck to paycheck."
The county once again has hired consulting firm Benchmark CMR, which specializes in administering these types of community development grants, Starr said, to prepare the grant applications — one of the more labor-intensive aspects of the project.
Gower praised everyone she worked with at Benchmark for their help, calling them "wonderful people," but she said the process was long and involved. After applying in 2008, work finally began this past September and was completed in November.
Starr said the state went through lot of reorganization during the last grant cycle and that caused a long delay with some of the homes, but he hopes those issues have been ironed out.
Starr also said the county's goal with the program is to benefit local contractors such as Quality Homes, which Gower praised as well.
"I feel really grateful, and blessed, that I received the grant," she said, "because it takes a lot off my mind and makes it easier — not having to fix everything myself."

change log: https://github.com/mrdoob/three.js/releases/tag/r68
If you were expecting this release on May 15th as I promised, sorry about that ^^ There has been quite a bit of refactoring on this cycle in the skinning code and WebGLRenderer itself. It was better to wait for things to be more stable.
As you can see on the change log there is a ton of new bits to play with!
One I would like to highlight is the VRControls and VREffect that eases the process of supporting the new experimental VR HMD being implemented in Firefox and Chrome:
This was contributed by a Mozillian. This cycle also has some improvements from NVIDIA themselves and we already had contributions from Google and Microsoft. Apple next? :P
Another change is that, thanks to +Jaume Sánchez, the documentation is now mobile friendly (examples next?). If that wasn't enough, he also added a filter field.
And the last one would be the fact that most of the Raycaster code has been moved to their own objects. This allows anyone to create their own objects with their custom raycast logic.
Following that style, Loader.Handler has been added, which allows adding custom loaders for unsupported file formats (TGA and DDS examples by now).
There are a couple of gotchas on this release though...
1. object1.position = object2.position no longer works
And sadly there is no way (without losing a lot of performance) to warn the user about it. Please change it to:
object1.position.copy( object2.position );
Or, depending on your case:
object2.add( object1 )
You can include this file in your project to find where you're using the old pattern:
2. WebGLRenderer scene graph change
From now on, when using WebGLRenderer, if an object has visible set to false its children won't render. The other renderers already behaved like that.
And that's about it. As always, thanks to all the contributors!

GET A LIGHT!Written by Boston Biker on Nov 25
See the rest of this amazing comic, from the ever Talented BikeyFace. Get some awesome prints of her great work here, tell her BostonBiker sent you over.
I honestly don't know what people are thinking, but you need lights. You need a red one in the back, a white one in the front and you need to have them on and at full power. Its dark 24 hours a day now, so the USB rechargeable ones are nice, but I don't care if you have to light the front and back of your bike on fire, you are 100% invisible without a light.
Reflectors are nice, but they don't work for pedestrians or other cyclists, or if the car has its lights off, or if it comes at you from a strange angle….basically you need to be lit up like a gaudy Las Vegas sign all the time every day (seriously).
I almost ran into another cyclist the other day, there was a line of cars facing me (as I was going up the Longfellow towards Cambridge), and they had no lights or reflectors. They were completely invisible until I was about 3-5 feet from them. Similarly some crazy ass runner did the same thing, except he was running TOWARDS me.
All in all I would say in the last two or three weeks I have had more than a dozen close calls with people dressed totally in black riding or walking with NO LIGHTS. (I think that pedestrians need lights as well, especially when out for a jog in the street, or when j-walking.)
Get em, use em, love em. LIGHTS!

Cyclists Sited For Breaking The Law, But Also Given Helmets And LightsWritten by Boston Biker on Sep 13
This is the kind of thing I can totally get behind. These sorts of events are good for cyclists, and motorists alike.
Forty cyclists were cited for infractions, including red light violations, illegal turns, and not signaling, when police conducted a bicycle safety and enforcement operation near Commonwealth and Massachusetts avenues.
Boston, Brookline, State, Transit and Boston University police staked out the area at 8 a.m. Thursday.
Police chose the location due to its history of bicycle collisions and other incidents.
Police also conducted an operation along Commonwealth Avenue at 4 p.m. Results of that operation were not yet available, police said.
During the two operations, police also gave riders dozens of free helmets and bicycle lights donated by the university.
I would also love to see this sort of thing for motorists who drive dangerously.

Is It Just Me…Written by Boston Biker on Jul 10
Or have the timing on the lights on Broadway in Cambridge (especially near Galileo) been changed?
Over time I get used to timing all my commute lights with near perfect results (I always hit the same greens, always stop at the same reds), but now I seem to be off, a lot. I am hitting greens that should be reds (a lot more of them actually), and some reds that should be green.
Anyone else notice this?

See And Be SeenWritten by Boston Biker on Nov 16
More awesome light awareness campaigns from A Better City, and Bikeyface:
Read more about this awesome campaign here (excerpt below):
People Who Bike
As bikes increasingly share the roads with motorists and pedestrians, awareness and visibility become all the more important. These tips will help:
Be predictable. "Be predictable and visible" is the mantra for preventing a bike accident.
Install lights. A white light in front and a red light in back is the law, and highly effective at night and in stormy weather.
Use turn signals. Use your arms to indicate your intention to turn left or right, or if you plan to stop.
Stop at all stop signs and red lights.
Wear eye-catching clothing. This is why I like biking in skirts!
Hone your Sixth Sense. Over time, cyclists develop an almost zen-like awareness of what's going on around them. BikeyFace has a great post illustrating this.
People Who Drive
As Mayor Menino is fond of saying, the car is no longer king in Boston. Here are some basic guidelines to help you be aware and stay visible in your vehicle. You can also try this fun awareness test video.
Use turn signals. Signals are imperative to communicate your intention to all road users.
Avoid cell phone use. Studies have found that talking on the phone while driving can have a negative effect "as profound as those associated with driving while drunk." Texting while driving is illegal in Massachusetts.
Don't stop in a bike lane. It's illegal (unless you are parallel parking) and causes people who bike to veer around you into car traffic that may not expect them coming.
Check for oncoming bike traffic after parking. The Dutch are taught from an early age to reach across their bodies to open the car door, which forces them to look back for oncoming bikes. It's a good habit to get into! And remember: cyclists are allowed to bike outside of the bike lane.
People Who Walk
We're all pedestrians after we've parked our bikes and cars – and when we're taking the T. Be aware of your surroundings and make it easy to stay visible while you walk around town.
Be predictable. Follow pedestrian traffic signals. If you choose to jaywalk, make sure that there is zero approaching traffic in the form of motorists or people on bikes.
Avoid cell phone use. Cell phones can be as distracting on foot as behind the wheel, so why not sit at a park bench or wait until you're not navigating precarious city streets to have a phone call?
People Who Lead
In a perfect safety world, our elected officials and city planners would enjoy multi-modal lifestyles to better understand the needs of our fellow road users. The Commonwealth has a premier example of this in our Secretary of Transportation Rich Davey, who lives car-free and routinely takes the T to work.
Under Davey, MassDOT recently announced a first-in-the-nation mode shift goal to triple the share of trips taken by bike, walking and transit by 2030. Government can play perhaps the largest role in creating safe road conditions by investing in infrastructure that supports safe interactions among people who walk, drive, and bike. Changing our streets will be well worth the time, investment, and continued advocacy.

Convincing Cyclists To Use LightsWritten by Boston Biker on Nov 16
Its not only the law that you have a white front light and a red rear light, but its a good idea. I can't tell you the number of cyclists I pass who are almost completely invisible because they only have reflectors. You need lights, they are vital to your safety. There is no other way to put it, you shouldn't get on a bike at night without lights.
The Dutch as always are ten steps ahead of us.
I really like the light fairy and her dress made of lights. This could be done here with minimal planning, and cost. Set up shop at any of the many spots cyclists frequent, shine a bright light on them send out your light drones, suck them in and give them free lights. I would have really liked the BPHC spent 40K on giving out free lights, and free helmets than put up those horrible ads.
(thanks John for the heads up)

This Looks Interesting, Also USE A LIGHT!Written by Boston Biker on Oct 27
Dear everyone, lights, use em. Especially not that its getting darker sooner. For reals, I can't even see you and I am on the bike right behind you. This goes for late night joggers/pedestrians as well. You don't have to get a light up backpack, but please, LIGHTS!

Get Your Light On!Written by Boston Biker on Mar 15
Even though the light is better, you still need a red back light, and a white front light. Not only is it the law, it will save your bacon. Today I ran across an amazing, comprehensive, one stop shop review for all things bike light related. Check it out here.
Here is a taste:
Choosing a light can be a difficult task though – there are countless options to choose from ranging from cheap $3 flashers to blindingly bright $200 powerhouses. The internet already has some good comparisons of bike headlights, but there's a surprising lack of comprehensive taillight comparisons, so I decided to make one. For science.
In total, I reviewed 16 different taillights from 8 of the top light manufacturers. I chose which lights to review based on a survey I conducted on the parent site for this blog – Bicycles Stack Exchange, a Q&A site for everything about bicycles, and also asked on Reddit's /r/bicycling. The incumbent in this race is the Planet Bike Blinky Superflash. Everyone has this light (myself included). Not only is it the light most people own, it's also the most-loved – 20% of respondents said it was their favorite. In terms of what people wish they had or are considering buying, the Planet Bike Superflash Turbo, Portland Design Works' Radbot 1000 and Danger Zone, and the Niterider Cherrybomb were all high on the list. Many people expressed an interest in DiNotte's lights, but unfortunately we were unable to acquire one for this review and the company declined to loan a light for the review.
I'm sure you're all dying to know which light is the best, but first, let's take a look at the contenders.
This review is so good it comes with a table of contents, check it out here.

Aliases for RICTOR Gene
Aliases for RICTOR Gene
External Ids for RICTOR Gene
- Entrez Gene: 253260
- Ensembl: ENSG00000164327
- UniProtKB: Q6R327
Previous GeneCards Identifiers for RICTOR Gene
Summaries for RICTOR Gene
RICTOR and MTOR (FRAP1; MIM 601231) are components of a protein complex that integrates nutrient- and growth factor-derived signals to regulate cell growth (Sarbassov et al., 2004 [PubMed 15268862]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]
GeneCards Summary for RICTOR Gene
RICTOR (RPTOR Independent Companion Of MTOR Complex 2) is a Protein Coding gene. Among its related pathways are Gene Expression and Signaling by GPCR. GO annotations related to this gene include binding and ribosome binding.
UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot for RICTOR Gene
Subunit of mTORC2, which regulates cell growth and survival in response to hormonal signals. mTORC2 is activated by growth factors, but, in contrast to mTORC1, seems to be nutrient-insensitive. mTORC2 seems to function upstream of Rho GTPases to regulate the actin cytoskeleton, probably by activating one or more Rho-type guanine nucleotide exchange factors. mTORC2 promotes the serum-induced formation of stress-fibers or F-actin. mTORC2 plays a critical role in AKT1 Ser-473 phosphorylation, which may facilitate the phosphorylation of the activation loop of AKT1 on Thr-308 by PDK1 which is a prerequisite for full activation. mTORC2 regulates the phosphorylation of SGK1 at Ser-422. mTORC2 also modulates the phosphorylation of PRKCA on Ser-657. Plays an essential role in embryonic growth and development.

Can anyone give me an idea how can we show or embed a YouTube video if we just have the URL or the Embed code?
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
You have to ask users to store the 11 character code from the youtube video.
For e.g. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ahg6qcgoay4
The eleven character code is : Ahg6qcgoay4
You then take this code and place it in your database. Then wherever you want to place the youtube video in your page, load the character from the database and put the following code:-
e.g. for Ahg6qcgoay4 it will be :
Do not store the embed code in your database -- YouTube may change the embed code and URL parameters from time to time. For example the
A naive PHP example for extracting the video id is as follows:
I suggest that you look at these articles to figure out what to do with these ids:
To create your own YouTube video player:
From both long and short youtube urls you can get the embed this way:
Hope it helps someone
Use a regex to extract the "video id" after
Store the video id in a variable, let's call this variable
Get the embed code from a random video, remove the video id from the embed code and replace it with the
I don't know how to deal with regex in php, but it shouldn't be too hard
Here's example code in python:
The regular expression
In order for your users not spend their entire lifetime trying to find the video id in links to put it in your form field, let them post the link of the video they find on youtube and you can use the following regex to obtain the video id:
To get the video id you can fetch it
Part of this answer is referred by @shawn's answer in this question.
If you want to upload videos programatically, check the YouTube Data API for PHP
Here is some code I've wrote to automatically turn URL's into links and automatically embed any video urls from youtube. I made it for a chat room I'm working on and it works pretty well. I'm sure it will work just fine for any other purpose as well like a blog for instance.
All you have to do is call the function "autolink()" and pass it the string to be parsed.
For example include the function below and then echo this code.
Searching for this same topic I found another method using Javascript an Youtube API's
Directly from: http://code.google.com/apis/ajax/playground/#simple_embed
Loading the API
And executing the following javascript code:
The complete sample is in the previously referred page http://code.google.com/apis/ajax/playground
You can do this simple with Joomla. Let me assume a sample YouTube URL - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndmXkyohT1M
If i understand clearly, user provides the URL/code of the Youtube video and then that video is displayed on the page.
For that, just write a simple page, with layout etc.. Copy video embed code from youtube and paste it in your page. Replace embed code with some field, say VideoID. Set this VideoId to code provided by your user.
edit: see answer by Alec Smart.
Just a small update to Alec Smart's answer: since AS2 is deprecated now, the '?version=3' is required to get his example to work. See the Youtube reference at YouTube Embedded Players and Player Parameters under "Selecting content to play" for details.
In other words:
Apparently, the Youtube reference above does this as follows (the inner embed presumably used as a fallback for browsers that don't yet support the object tag):
Or using iframes (replace http://example.com with your site's domain):
You can simply create a php input form for
This YouTube embed generator solve all my problems with video embedding.

I have attempted running PS3 Media Server allowing inbound and outbound port 5001 in APF. What happens is when I start PS3 Media Server I get a IOException has occurred error in the Trace log. When I disable APF it works just fine; I know it's an APF issue because I can reproduce it every time. The problem is me finding out what setting in APF is causing this. I have logging set to warn and I see nothing being logged for APF when IOException is being thrown. How can I troubleshoot this to see what firewall setting is causing this issue with PS3 Media Server?

text: I was switching webhosts. I did an export from WordPress and it created an XML of about 29mgs. After installing WordPress and switching nameservers I go to import the file. I go to Tools > Import and select the WordPress method. It opens a menu that is asking me to choose an WXR file. ANd it has a limit of 8MB. I don't have a file of that type and the file I have is much larger than 8MG. I tried just selecting my XML file but it doesn't work. So basically I have a file that WordPress exported that it won't import. What are my options? I don't have access to the old server now to do mySQL dump.

Dunedin children are the first in the South Island to learn
surf safety through a national programme funded by the
Almost 200 primary and intermediate-aged children have
received free surfing and water safety lessons at various
Dunedin beaches this week, as part of Surfing New Zealand's
Have A Go Surfing Days initiative.
Based in Raglan, Surfing New Zealand (SNZ) started the
programme four years ago with the Government's KiwiSport
Regional Partnership Funding, which in Otago is administered
by Sport Otago.
SNZ development manager Lee Ryan, of Mt Maunganui, said it
was the first time the programme had been held in the South
Island and he hoped to return to Dunedin annually to involve
more children.
''Our target is to involve five schools and about 200
children [in Dunedin], based on the funding we have. The
target market is pupils in year 6, 7 and 8 and so far we've
had awesome feedback,'' Mr Ryan said.
The programme could be linked with existing swim safety
initiatives, as well as surf life-saving beach education
programmes, he said.
''The most important thing we teach the kids is to be safe in
the surf when going into the sea, so we teach them about rips
and currents,'' he said.
The Government funding was intended to introduce new sports
to children, hence the surfing lesson component.
Mr Ryan hoped many of the Dunedin children participating this
week would further their basic surfing skills.
About 25 Tahuna Normal Intermediate pupils spent yesterday
morning at St Clair, where another 75 children went through
the programme on Tuesday.
About 25 did so at Brighton on Monday, and another 25 were
due to take part at Warrington tomorrow.
The Esplanade Surf School provided instructors and equipment
for the programme in Dunedin.

It Sure Wasn't Pretty, but Yanks Will Take It
It Sure Wasn't Pretty, But Yanks Will Take It
DETROIT—Winning ugly is still winning, so even though the Yankees did everything they could to give away the game to the Detroit Tigers on Wednesday, they still came away with what counts: a much-needed victory, 12-8.
The Yankees leapt out to an early lead against Tigers starter Anibal Sanchez, racking up seven runs in the first four innings. But then they coasted a little too much—as CC Sabathia and David Robertson allowed seven runs from the 6th through 8th innings, with help from a pivotal Robinson Cano error.
Just when the Yankees seemed ready to give it away, Mark Teixeira and Eric Chavez drove in insurance runs—and the Tigers offered one of their own with a balk—to help the Yankees avoid a three-game losing streak.

This paper presents a method for designing sharp linear phase FIR filters with power-of-two coefficients based on the frequency-response masking technique. The power-of-two coefficients and continuous scaling parameters of the subfilters are taken to be decision variables. Minimizing peak weighted ripple (PWR) of the system is taken to be a design objective. To find the optimum power-of-two coefficients, the alternating variable method is used. In this method, the coefficients of the subfilters are improved iteratively. Optimization of a subfilter over a subregion is done via a branch and bound based method. This method is guaranteed to find a global minimum in each subregion and requires very little search time. The effectiveness of the method is demonstrated through a lowpass linear phase sharp FIR digital filter example.

City Parking Tickets and Crack Dealin'
posted by August 10 at 12:30 PMon
Stranger contributor Trent Moorman emails…
Here's a video of a parking cop in the International District. He comes by every day at 5:55 and writes tickets. Even if you're only 3 minutes late on the meter sticker, you're getting ticket. Meanwhile, there's a park across the street where crack dealers sell drugs, in plain view.
You get a ticket for being 3 minutes expired, while the crack dealer operates hassle-free.
I had my camera handy when he came by yesterday. While he was scrounging for his next car to ticket, I asked him why he doesn't do anything about the crack dealer fifteen yards away. He told me he's not allowed to do anything about the crack dealer. He said he's not a sworn officer, and he doesn't have a gun. He can only radio it in. But wouldn't radio it in. He suggested that I call 911. I told him he was the one with "Seattle Police" on his shoulder patch, but he shrugged, rode off, and continued to write tickets. The crack dealer continued as well.

Kirby Grant (Sky King ) and Gloria Winters (penny) of the Sky King Television series that was shown back in the 50s were a true inspiration to all us kids who watched the series. Many of those kids grew up to be pilots, many went into Law Enforcement... because Sky and Penny were always helping their neighbors and others in trouble or in danger. I admired them for their level of professionalism, good taste, and in stirring the desire for kids to want to make something of themselves. I have watched many other series that played, but, 'Sky King' set the standard. I wish to thank 'Penny' for being there for all us kids. Frank -------------------------------------------
Gloria Winters "Penny" I just heard passed away on August 14th 2010.

Keeping your home clean and safe will now be easy with the Eureka Forbes Nano Vacuum Cleaner. This powerful vacuum cleaner simplifies your cleaning process by removing every speck of dirt in your home. You can also use a range of accessories to enhance the use and versatility of the vacuum cleaner.
The Nano Vacuum Cleaner uses a 1000W power plus motor to provide ultra powerful suction that helps in seeking and removing any trace of dirt from your homes and ridding it of dust mites.
The 'Bag Full Indicator' turns red when it is full. To clean the dust bag, just open the front lid, pull out the dust bag and draw the plastic clamp out. After this, all you have to do is empty the dust bag and put it back in its original position.
This vacuum cleaner has a superior filtration which ensures that the dust remains in the vacuum cleaner and the air that is forced out is pure. This is because the air goes through three stages of the filtration process before it is expelled: the Fine Dust filter, the Electron filter and a 3-layered electric filter.
The Trendy Nano comes with an Auto Cord Winder that helps in easy and convenient storage of the cord. You can prevent the cord from getting tangled by pulling it to the exact length that is required by you.
The accessories for the Trendy Nano vacuum cleaner include a floor carpet brush which can be used to clean and maintain floors, tiled surfaces, rugs, carpets and dhurries. You can also use the two-in-one multifuntional brush/nozzle.
The machine consumes 1000W of power and runs at 230V AC

Try looking a bit further down on this forum to the thread "PBS Don Q" and another started by Ed Waffle on Anything Goes. They're both only a couple days since the last post, so they should be visible with the default preference for topic display (10 days).

Abano Healthcare's special meeting will be held tomorrow but
there is no guarantee the dissident shareholders will back
off if their motion to remove chairman Trevor Janes is
Abano Healthcare shareholders Peter Hutson and James Reeves
went to the High Court in Auckland in a bid to delay the
special meeting they called, where they are seeking to remove
Mr Janes.
Messrs Hutson and Reeves wanted to delay this Friday's
meeting by three to four weeks, saying the timeframe was
''inadequate'' and ''impracticable'' to call and conduct the
However, Justice Susan Thomas declined to delay the meeting
in a decision released yesterday, Abano managing director
Alan Clarke said.
The meeting was then due to go ahead this Friday.
Brokers spoken to by the Otago Daily Times said if Messrs
Hutson and Reeves did not get the result they wanted
tomorrow, there was no guarantee they would back off.
''They have mentioned before that if they fail they may have
another go. It's very distracting for the board, management
and all involved,'' a broker said.
Mr Clarke said he was very pleased with the decision,''We
felt that there was nothing inhibiting the meeting proceeding
and so we're pleased that the process is going to be
completed from Friday,'' he said.
The company issued the notice of meeting on Friday May 23 and
the board recommended shareholders oppose the vote to dump
the chairman. Mr Janes abstained from endorsing the
directors' recommendation.
The dissident shareholders said they were disappointed but
not surprised by the decision.
''We have viewed the special meeting process as fundamentally
flawed from the start. We await the judge's written
We note Abano submitted at the hearing that a better option,
rather than delaying the meeting, was to simply call another
special meeting.
The next step is a second special meeting run properly this
time,'' Mr Hutson and Mr Reeves said in a statement.
''We are not going away. Further evidence emerged in the
hearing that raises serious questions as to whether Trevor
Janes is a fit and proper person to lead Abano. Furthermore,
this process has raised fundamental questions as to what
levels of misleading behaviours are acceptable in New
Zealand's capital markets.''
