Secretary-General's remarks at meeting with Committee of African Heads of State and Government on Climate Change
Malabo, Equatorial Guinea, 27 June 2014
I am glad we could meet here in the margins of the AU Summit.
The inter-related climate and post-2015 sustainable development processes present an unprecedented opportunity to limit global temperature rise, eradicate extreme poverty and sustain economic growth.
But, to meet the full scale of the climate challenge and seize the opportunities, we need an international framework that will support accelerated action by all nations and all sectors.
That is why I am hosting a Climate Summit on 23 September in New York.
We are all aware of the latest findings of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.
More extreme climatic events highlight the need for ambitious climate change adaptation and mitigation strategies and actions.
I am encouraged that Africa's regional strategies give priority to agriculture, water and energy. These are the most vulnerable sectors and the most crucial to growth.
I have three expectations for the Climate Summit.
First, government, business, finance and civil society leaders should signal clear support for an ambitious global agreement in 2015.
We need a vision that aligns politics and economics and is consistent with limiting global temperature rise to under 2 degree Celsius.
National actions should provide evidence of commitment to this trajectory.
Second, governments and key financial actors need to commit to scaling up public and private finance.
We must start mobilizing the additional investments needed to get the world on a 2degree Celsius pathway.
We need a hundreds of billion dollars a year between now and 2050
That means operationalizing and capitalising the Green Climate Fund as a matter of urgency, and mobilizing the $100 billion already pledged.
It means introducing policy and regulatory measures that will promote low-carbon and climate resilient economic development in all regions from 2015.
It means creating a platform to discuss trading and price issues related to all carbon markets.
And it means establishing supportive national frameworks for green bond markets and working with multilateral, international and national development banks to triple the green bond market by the end of 2015.
It also means scaling-up mechanisms to insure against extreme weather, such as the African Risk Capacity, which should be showcased at the Summit.
My third expectation for the Summit is that it will help build multilateral and multi-stakeholder coalitions to support initiatives in high-impact areas that will reduce emissions and enhance resilience.
I thank all who have already accepted my invitation.
I hope you will all attend and encourage your leaders from the private sector to come too.
I also expect a significant role from Africa as a regional bloc.
Africa has the opportunity to create new markets, and more and better jobs by building a low-carbon, climate resilient economy that will enhance water, food and energy security.
I therefore welcome Africa's coordinated approach to the 2015 climate agreement, through this distinguished Committee.
Africa can raise the ambition level of all countries in the climate negotiations, through leading by example and setting the bar high.
That is why I urge you to deliver a strong common statement at the Climate Summit.
I welcome the initiative of the Climate for Development in Africa partnership to hold a special event on 22 September in New York for African leaders to consolidate their joint message.
My office and my Special Envoy, President Kufuor, will work with you closely to support this effort.
I encourage you to demonstrate leadership commensurate with Africa's emergence as an economic powerhouse by committing to a low-carbon future, building resilience and investing in adaptation.
Demonstrate your commitment at the Summit through significant actions in Africa's priority areas of energy, agriculture and water.
And join multilateral, multi-stakeholder initiatives such as the Clean Energy Corridor and the Climate Smart Agriculture Alliance.
I thank you for your attention.
I would now like to turn to my Special Envoy H. E. President Kufuor to lay-out the organisation of the day and we look forward to hearing our views thereafter.
Thank you.

Arts Dog Trouble
For the past two weeks, animal-rights activists and other folks with souls have been up in arms over the fate of Mooey, the pit bull puppy in Federal Way that had to be euthanized after being burned with acid over the majority of its body.
Of course it takes a real badass to dip a puppy in acid, but as a recent case in Phoenix makes clear, it takes a real man to rape a toy poodle.
Details on the assault of Sassy the poodle here. And for all you animal-loving amateur sleuths, the Phoenix Humane Society is offering a $5000 reward for any information that leads to the arrest of Sassy's assailant, while Pasado, WA's Safe Haven animal shelter is promising $10,000 to whoever helps them find the sicko that sent Mooey on that fatal acid trip.

Since giving birth to her first child 10 months ago, Natalie Anderson has struggled to juggle the roles of mum, wife, friend – and brassy Emmerdale barmaid Alicia Metcalfe.
She went back to work on the soap just 11 weeks after having son Freddie and admits it was probably a bit too soon.
But now things are about to get even more confusing for the stunning actress and singer – because every Saturday night for the next six weeks she will be transforming herself into a totally different personality in front of millions of viewers on live TV.
Natalie, 31, is taking part in ITV show Your Face Sounds Familiar (a new sort of take on Celebrity Stars In Their Eyes) and will find herself having to imitate singers of both sexes, from Kate Bush and Madonna to one of the Bee Gees.
And on top of all that pressure the sleep-deprived new mum says she suffers from crippling nerves.
So why on Earth is she putting herself through such a TV trial?
The answer is a combination of her Yorkshire work ethic, nostalgia for the Saturday-night family entertainment she grew up with – and perhaps the desire to better her first talent-show performance when she was pipped to a place in the finals of Pop Idol in 2002 by a then unknown singer called Will Young.
"If you aren't working you don't earn money," says Bradford-born Natalie with a matter-of-fact shrug.
"I'm so lucky to have done so much already and I never take anything for granted. This is a huge opportunity. I knew straight away that I had to do it.
"There's potential to embarrass yourself – my husband wants me to have to do Freddie Mercury.
"But this is right up my street."
Natalie, who released her own album Return to Me in 2008 and starred in West End hit show Wicked, goes on: "It's me doing what I do at Christmas – dressing up, hogging the karaoke microphone and just having fun.
"Saturday night telly is what I grew up with. These days it costs £40 to take the kids to the cinema – with this they can sit down with a pizza and enjoy genuine, old-fashioned family entertainment.
"We're raising money for our chosen charities too. Mine is the baby charity Bliss."
It's clearly a cause close to Natalie's heart. Giving birth to son Freddie in August left Natalie and hubby James Sheppard terrified.
Natalie said: "The umbilical cord was wrapped around his neck.
"Every time I had a really intense contraction, his heart was stopping as the cord tightened. It was the scariest time of our lives.
"They knew they had to get him out and said if nothing had happened in the next five minutes I would have needed an emergency C-section."
Fortunately Freddie arrived fit and well.
"All I could feel was overwhelming love," smiles Natalie. "We're so lucky."
Natalie, who also starred in hospital drama The Royal, quickly lost her baby weight and went back to work within three months.
She says: "I feel OK now, but at times it's been really difficult working five days from 7am to 7pm.
"It's hard when I've not seen Freddie but my mum, mother-in-law and husband look after him. I have to keep remembering I'm so fortunate having this job."
Natalie has heart-to-hearts with her Emmerdale co-star Charley Webb.
Charley, who plays Debbie Dingle, and her partner Matthew Wolfenden, who plays David Metcalfe, have a three-year-old son named Buster.
Natalie says: "I came back really quickly. Charley and I have discussed that a lot. If James and I decide to have another baby, I'd definitely take more time off.
"While all the stuff like teething and colic were going on I'd turn up to work and have really emotional scenes – and you're doing them on no sleep.
"But having the support of the friends at work is amazing."
Looking at super-slim, glowing Natalie it's hard to believe she is a tired, working mum.
She was even nominated as sexiest female in the British Soap Awards, losing out to Corrie beauty Michelle Keegan.
She says: "I was really flattered because I don't feel very sexy. I spend half of my life in a tracksuit. But when I am out and about, I like to present myself properly.
I follow the rules of Joan Collins and love to glam up. But day-to-day it's not practical for me to be dressed to the nines.
"I am mum first, then wife, then friend – being sexy is way down the list.
"I am really proud of what my body has achieved. My little body that I used to moan so much about when I was in my teens and in my 20s has given me my beautiful baby."
But Natalie says James, who works in financial services, would support her if she decided to pose for lads mags again. "If I'm OK with it, then so's my husband, so maybe I would.
"But as Freddie gets older, I aim to grow old gracefully like Sophia Loren and Helen Mirren – they are so beautiful
and sexy and confident."
But over the next few weeks Natalie could see herself transformed into a teenage pop star or a veteran rocker on Your Face.
The show is presented by Paddy McGuinness and Alesha Dixon, with Emma Bunton and Julian Clary as judges.
Natalie battles it out with comedians Bobby Davro and Alexander Armstrong, Olympian Denise Lewis, This Morning's Matt Johnson and former EastEnder Cheryl Fergison.
Contestants will only learn who they'll impersonate the next week when they press a random selector button.
Natalie says: "I want to be Barry Gibb. Singing-wise I'm halfway there and I've got a lot of hair."
In the first show on Saturday Natalie morphs into Katy Perry.
She laughs: "Katy's quite difficult really. Cher or Tina Turner have very distinctive mannerisms, but with Katy Perry it's more her look.
"And I'm struggling to really pitch her voice and get the sound right. But the makeover team have done a phenomenal job. I think even Russell Brand might be fooled."
Natalie's varied career has convinced her it was actually a good thing she didn't win Pop Idol 11 years ago.
She says: "I wasn't confident enough. I was in the final 50 and got beaten to the final 10 by Will Young – which isn't bad going.
"I wasn't ready for it. He was much more grounded. I was still at drama school and the idea that I could be in the papers the next day was disturbing. I found it stressful.
"But this show will be fun, although I do still suffer terribly from nerves.
"I have to zone into what I'm doing and take a bit of 'rescue remedy'. So the fact that there will be millions watching – my nerves do worry me.
"I'm thrilled Emmerdale have allowed me to do this – and it doesn't mean I'm looking for a change. I'm really happy where I am.
"I live 15 minutes away from the studios, which means I am home every night to see my baby son Freddie. And he is my priority."
Your Face Sounds Familiar is on ITV tomorrow at 7.30pm

NEW DELHI Security forces likely killed top Maoist military commander Koteshwar Rao in a West Bengal jungle on Thursday, the government said, striking a major blow to fighters who control large, impoverished but mineral-rich swathes of the country.
The government describes the guerrilla movement as India's biggest internal security threat.
Rao, known as Kishenji, was held responsible for the death of dozens of police. The interior ministry confirmed a man was killed in a fire-fight during an operation to capture the leader.
"Officers on the spot said it was Maoist leader Kishenji ... 99 percent sure it was Kishenji," Home Secretary RK Singh told the PTI news agency.
The rebel, who evaded capture during three decades of fighting to overthrow the state, often appeared with his back to the camera in news reports, his head covered by a scarf and a rifle slung over one shoulder.
The Maoists say they are fighting for the rights of poor peasants and landless labourers, and blame the federal government for doing little for the welfare of poor tribal people.
The rebels feed off the resentment of millions of poor people who have not shared the benefits of the boom in India's economy, which grew 8.5 percent last year.
They control a narrow forested, mineral-rich belt stretching over 22 of India's 28 states. But their influence remains largely restricted to the countryside and small towns.

Cast: Tom (I), Gio (III) (Canadian) (amateur), October Darling, Bambi (III) (Canadian) (amateur), Alyssa Austin, Martin C., Jeremy Steele (I), Lyka, Max (IX) (Canadian) (amateur)
Critical Rating: A 1/2
Genre: Amateur, Young Girl
Welcome to another installment of Homegrown Select's award-winning teen amateur series. What makes this series such a big seller is that many of these hot barely legal teens are experimenting with on-camera sex for the very first time. Sometimes, the girls will move on to making more porn, but more often than not, this is the only place you will ever see these girls on tape. This is what teen amateur is really all about!
Yikes. Two stinkers in a row from the one of the best-selling amateur lines on the market and one that has won numerous AVN Awards. No doubt exists that these are definitely amateur scenes. But in 2010, applying even the minimal standards for amateur video, halfway decent quality and camerawork that doesn't shift or shake, is a must. The closing scene, a three-way with Gio, Bambi and Max, looks like it was shot with the grainiest initial camcorders that hit the market in the early '80s. Authentic as it may seem, it is unwatchable.
The cutest girl of the bunch, an 18-year-old brunette named October Darling wearing glasses, masturbates and shoots the first blowjob for her new website, interestingly shot with the camera on the floor for a upwards view, but with shaky camerawork otherwise. The most professional scene, with 18-year-old blonde Alyssa Austin and Jeremy Steele, is a by-the-numbers, mattress-on-the-floor yawner. And the less said about Asian newcomer Lyka, who exerts no sexual energy in a very poorly shot scene, the better.
Cherries is still a great brand, but Homegrown needs to pick better fruit for its releases or they will kill the harvest.

Celeb David Beckham is a Big Fag (Hag), Plus! Courtneys Imaginary Burglars!
posted by December 28 at 15:32 PMon
In a recent interview David Beckham said:
"I'm very honored to have the tag of gay icon."
Well. Im confident that I speak for all The Gays when I say that were just thrilled to be tagging you, David dear. Now please show us your penis. Please.
And just because we havent heard anything from her in a spell, I give you Old Widow Cobain (if I may dust off that old chestnut) and her massive delusions:
"Courtney Love is "devastated" after a pair of $100,000 pink diamond earrings was stolen from her New York hotel room on Wednesday. According to a source: "She had brought the earrings for Frances as her Christmas present. Frances hadn't even tried them on yet."
The tragic teen didn't even get to try on her $100,000 pair of earrings? Oh, the horror! But wait!
But hours after New York police launched an investigation into the incident on Thursday morning, the diamond earrings mysteriously reappeared.
Turns out they were under the winged pink elephant the entire time.

Rumour: Sony prepping new PS3 SKU to combat hackers
Rumours suggest Sony may be working up to the release of a new, "hack-proof" PlayStation 3 model.
An anonymous source told Everything HQ Sony is "already deep into plans" for a new SKU in response to the recent leak of Killzone 3 to torrent sites, in the wake of the system's root key publication and subsequent custom firmware.
The new, Slim-style model will allegedly feature a 300 GB hard drive and a price tag of £186.99.
Recent retailer discounts in some territories have fuelled speculation that Sony is planning an official price drop on PS3 hardware, which Everything HQ suggests may be an effort to clear existing, hackable stock – although putting a bunch of cheap, hackable consoles into consumer hands doesn't seem the wisest counter-piracy strategy.

What do I pay now?
Dependent on your household size, you could be spending anywhere from $25-$100 per month on water alone. The current base rate (first 1,000 gallons) for water is $14.12 and $27.24 for sewer. The proposed increase is $14.83 for water and $28.60 for sewer.
Is five percent a lot?
Yearly increases to utilities rates are not uncommon. Last year, there was a similar increase to water rates and a seven percent increase to sewer rates. Rates are expected to level off starting in FY18.
How much more can I expect to pay?

Hot trailer: Man of Steel ready to save the world
- From: news.com.au
- December 12, 2012
SUPERMAN finally gets to flex his muscles in the new trailer for Man of Steel.
The teaser that aired earlier this year was kind of vague, focusing on the young Clark Kent, but this time around we get to see plenty of Henry Cavill in the iconic suit and cape.
It is definitely epic in scale and offers the kind of grand visuals that audiences expect from superhero films and will hopefully make up for the last time Superman was on the big screen.
In addition to Supes, the trailer also features Amy Adams as love interest Lois Lane and Russell Crowe and Kevin Costner as Superman's two dads, as well as a blink-and-you'll-miss-him look at the film's villain, General Zod.
The footage also suggests that Man of Steel will follow the serious tone of Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy (which should be no surprise to fans, as Nolan is the film's producer).
The film doesn't hit cinemas for another six months but it is already shaping up to be next year's biggest movie.
Warner Bros is hoping it will successfully reboot the character and do Dark Knight business at the box office.
The Superman movie franchise has had a long tortured history, with Warners wasting hundreds of millions of dollars on attempts to revive the character.
The last Superman movie, 2006's Superman Returns, was a disappointment, both critically and financially, with many believing the decision to slavishly follow the Christopher Reeve-era movies misguided.

Foods for Beautiful Skin (Page 18)
Spinach boasts lutein, a carotenoid that protects your skin from UV damage. When buying spinach, pick the one right up in the light: new research, published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, reveals that spinach stored continuously under the light for as little as three days boasted higher levels of vitamin C and preserved levels of K, E, folate and the carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin.

Although natural coral is found in an array of hues, the coral that the colour is named after is red or 'precious' coral. It's on the pink end of the orange spectrum and definitely has to be considered only a highlight colour. A room with wall to wall, floor to ceiling coral would feel really oppressive and overbearing. The colour is stunning when used on a feature wall, painted furniture and in textiles. It's often teamed with brilliant white and works really well with teal.

Home Tones: Tangerine
Last week's Home Tones told of Adelle's favourite colour, violet. This week it's another favourite shade of another favourite colour; tangerine and orange respectively. A vibrant and eye-catching hue that's not to everyone's taste, but we adore it! We have it dotted throughout our house.
Because it can be so overwhelming it should only be used in flashes & splashes – feature walls, doors, artwork and the like.
Pop goes the Teapot!
We picked up this lovely vintage porcelain teapot on Monday morning – a good start to the week!
A very striking piece in terms of both form and colour, it's called the 'Pop Teapot' and was designed by Inger Persson for Rorstrand of Sweden in 1968.
It doesn't just look great – it's very ergonomic too. You need a teapot to feel good in the hand and pour well – which this one does. The integral stainless steel strainer is a very nice feature too.
Displays well and does the job well – a classic piece of design! We've noticed that the V&A museum has an example in their collection. Not to worry if you don't drink tea either – it would sit quite happily amongst other pieces of art pottery or glass.
This brilliant red-orange example will be available in our web shop this week.
Charity Vintage: Orange rotary dial telephone
(ends 6 May, 2015 20:47:50 BST)
The Prince of Wales Hospice* is currently selling this vintage orange rotary dial telephone – very Mod! It would look fab in our kitchen but I've been banned from having any more orange items in the room!
A vintage dial phone is so much more enjoyable to use and hold. If I'm going to be on hold for 20 minutes waiting to talk to 'customer services', I'd much rather be on this than one of those ugly, flimsy ones that are being manufactured these days.
It's in full working order and looks to be in really good condition – it was manufactured by Pye way back in 1974. The starting bid is only a tenner with £4 on top for delivery.
*The Prince of Wales Hospice provides specialist palliative care to those over the age of 18 with a progressive incurable illness. They provide our services free of charge to a catchment area of 170,000 people at a cost of £2 million per year but only about one-third of this is received from the NHS.
Charity Vintage: Guzzini picnic set
(ends 12 Apr, 2015 18:42:32 BST)
This Guzzini picnic set (or Pic Boll to give it its proper name) epitomises the 1970s! It's orange, it's moulded plastic and it's a perfect space-saving bit of design. It was designed in 1977 by Carlo Viglino, here's a great vintage ad from the time. This example is for sale by Kiveton Park & Wales Community Development Trust* with a starting bid of £9.99. They generally sell for between £20 & £30.
*The mission of Kiveton Park & Wales Community Development Trust is to provide the means by which the communities in Wales Parish can play an active part in the regeneration of their neighbourhoods so as to improve facilities, increase opportunities and enhance the quality of life of all residents.
Etsy List: Citrus
Citrus conjures up strong feelings; it ambushes all the senses. The scent is fresh and reviving. The taste zings on the tongue and the palate. The greens, yellows and ahem… oranges are eye-catching, vibrant and bright. Citrus is invigorating, uplifting, mood-enhancing and health-giving.

It's true, we don't know much about Sophia and her family, but we do know this: she's a Disney Princess through and through. That means your kids probably know her, love her, and will find it kinda cool you've got all these puzzles for them to enjoy. And, hey, maybe you can sell it to a collector in 2083.
according to wikipedia.org
"In October 2012, Disney confirmed that Sofia is their first Latina princess. According to a Disney spokeswoman, "...Sofia's mother, Queen Miranda, was born in a fictitious land, Galdiz, a place with Latin influences. Miranda met Sofia's father, Birk Balthazar, who hailed from the kingdom of Freezenberg, and together they moved to Enchancia, where Sofia was born.""

The RISC BLAS: a blocked implementation of level 3 BLAS for RISC processors
Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms
Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms (BLAS) is a de facto application programming interface standard for publishing libraries to perform basic linear algebra operations such as vector and matrix multiplication. They were first published in 1979, and are used to build larger packages such as LAPACK. Heavily used in high-performance computing, highly optimized implementations of the BLAS interface have been developed by hardware vendors such as Intel and AMD, as well as by other authors, e.g.

Reduced instruction set computing
Reduced instruction set computing, or RISC, is a CPU design strategy based on the insight that simplified (as opposed to complex) instructions can provide higher performance if this simplicity enables much faster execution of each instruction. A computer based on this strategy is a reduced instruction set computer also called RISC.

Silicon Graphics
Silicon Graphics, Inc. (commonly initialised to SGI, historically sometimes referred to as Silicon Graphics Computer Systems or SGCS) was a manufacturer of high-performance computing solutions, including computer hardware and software, founded in 1981 by Jim Clark. Its initial market was 3D graphics display terminals, but its products, strategies and market positions evolved significantly over time.

Cray Inc. is an American supercomputer manufacturer based in Seattle, Washington. The company's predecessor, Cray Research, Inc. (CRI), was founded in 1972 by computer designer Seymour Cray. Seymour Cray went on to form the spin-off Cray Computer Corporation (CCC), in 1989, which went bankrupt in 1995, while Cray Research was bought by SGI the next year. Cray Inc. was formed in 2000 when Tera Computer Company purchased the Cray Research Inc.

Digital Equipment Corporation
Digital Equipment Corporation was a major American company in the computer industry and a leading vendor of computer systems, software and peripherals from the 1960s to the 1990s. Also known as DEC and using the trademark DIGITAL, its PDP and VAX products were the most successful (in terms of sales) minicomputers. From 1957 until 1992 its headquarters was located in a former wool mill at Clock Tower Place, Maynard, Massachusetts.

Cray T3D
The T3D (Torus, 3-Dimensional) was Cray Research's first attempt at a massively parallel supercomputer architecture. Launched in 1993, it also marked Cray's first use of another company's microprocessor. The T3D consisted of between 32 and 2048 Processing Elements (PEs), each comprising a 150 MHz DEC Alpha 21064 (EV4) microprocessor and either 16 or 64 MB of DRAM. PEs were grouped in pairs, or nodes, which incorporated a 6-way processor interconnect switch.

I recently found this gem in my code base:
/** This class is used to "publish" changes to a non-volatile variable.
* Access to non-volatile and volatile variables cannot be reordered,
* so if you make changes to a non-volatile variable before calling publish,
* they are guaranteed to be visible to a thread which calls syncChanges
private static class Publisher {
//This variable may not look like it's doing anything, but it really is.
//See the documentaion for this class.
private volatile AtomicInteger sync = new AtomicInteger(0);
void publish() {
* @return the return value of this function has no meaning.
* You should not make *any* assumptions about it.
int syncChanges() {
return sync.get();
This is used as such:
Thread 1
float[][] matrix;
matrix[x][y] = n;
Thread 2
myVar = matrix[x][y];
Thread 1 is a background updating thread that runs continuously. Thread 2 is a HTTP worker thread that does not care that what it reads is in any way consistent or atomic, only that the writes "eventually" get there and are not lost as offerings to the concurrency gods.
Now, this triggers all my warning bells. Custom concurrency algorithm written deep inside of unrelated code.
Unfortunately, fixing the code is not trivial. The Java support for concurrent primitive matrices is not good. It looks like the clearest way to fix this is using a
ReadWriteLock, but that would probably have negative performance implications. Correctness is more important, clearly, but it seems like I should prove that this is not correct before just ripping it out of a performance sensitive area.
According to the java.util.concurrent documentation, the following create
happens-before relationships:
Each action in a thread happens-before every action in that thread that comes later in the program's order.
A write to a volatile field happens-before every subsequent read of that same field. Writes and reads of volatile fields have similar memory consistency effects as entering and exiting monitors, but do not entail mutual exclusion locking.
So it sounds like:
- matrix write happens-before publish() (rule 1)
- publish() happens-before syncChanges() (rule 2)
- syncChanges() happens-before matrix read (rule 1)
So the code indeed has established a happens-before chain for the matrix.
But I'm not convinced. Concurrency is hard, and I'm not a domain expert. What have I missed? Is this indeed safe?

Class of 2000 Fall Letter
Fall 2013
Dear Classmate,
Do you find yourself perpetually busy in your "Season of Life"? Careers, children, and a myriad of obligations on your time and talents can sometimes be overwhelming. I find the to-do list is never complete, the work tasks always waiting, and somehow the laundry seems to multiply overnight.

Vt. rec path revived 2 yearsMay 25,2013COLCHESTER — Two year after Lake Champlain flooding destroyed part of it, the Colchester Causeway recreational path has been restored for bicyclists, runners, walkers and fishermen.
The Colchester Causeway, along with a stretch to the north in South Hero, is a five-mile, unpaved northern portion of Island Line Trail. It connects to the south to Colchester's Airport Park and the 7.5-mile paved Burlington Bike Path.
The Burlington Free Press reported that restoration work took place last year from May to October and cost $500,000.
Seventy-five percent of the money to repair the causeway came from federal funds and 15 percent came from the state. The remaining 10 percent came largely from Burlington-based nonprofit Local Motion, and from an anonymous donorMORE IN This Just InLOS ANGELES As throngs of Pokemon Go players traipse around to real-world landmarks in...

It would be odd to not be threadsafe, considering the target

I am trying to upload images and it does not create the thumbnails. I have edited my memory limits and still it is a no go. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can make the broken image icon go away? :)
thank you
I am trying to upload images and it does not create the thumbnails. I have edited my memory limits and still it is a no go. Does anyone have any ideas on how I can make the broken image icon go away? :)
thank you
Same here.
It all worked fine with my two wp blogs till i updated ngg to 1.8.1 (both wp installations were 3.1.4).
One of the wp installations now is working (ngg 1.8.1, wp 3.1.4),
the second one was broken (ngg 1.8.1, wp 3.1.4): it doesn't create thumbnails anymore except i try to edit thumbnails manually (manage gallery -> choose gallery -> edit thumbnail at the single preview) - but this only works sometimes.
I already updated the broken one from wp 3.1.4 to 3.2 but this didn't solve the problem. Memory limit is set to 32 mb. Both wp installations are hosted by the same provider and the settings are the same.
Gallery dashboard - plugin test:
1. (broken) Installation says at testing image editing: only pics up to 800x600 px can be created, nothing more.
2. (working) Installation: is able to create a pic of 3072x2304 px
Does anyone have an idea?
Thanks! ;)
I'm having same problem here on one of my WP multi site wesbites. No thumbnails can be generated. There is an erro message that comes up, but it flashes briefly and I can't read it. It works fine on other wesbites within the same WP multi site environment.
yup, I get the flash, and then nothing. I tried to create them manually in the plugin, but that does not work either.
As a temporary fix, I created thumbnails myself, added thumbs_ to every thumbnail file and uploaded to the thumbnails directory for the corresponding gallery and it works.
You can see the working photo gallery on this page:
I will wait a couple days for a permanent fix and if not then switch to something else.
I tried to create them manually in the plugin, but that does not work either.
It doesn't work every time here too but if I choose a smaller sized section it works.
I also thought about creating the thumbs manually and loading them up into the thumbs-directory but that's a little bit cumbersome and I'm spoiled by ngg :D
last update to 1.8.1 an nothing works with thumbnails
still bevor this upgrade all workin well
This is the time to wisch an downgrade option in the wordpress plugin area!!!!
I aprichiate this plugin so well... but....
Hi there!
After updating WP to 3.2.1 and NGG to 1.8.2 the problem still exists. No thumbnails are automatically created, the "popup" for the process of thumbnail-creation shows a progress to 100% but does not close itself and no thumbnails have been created...
Any suggestions?
Thanks ;)
I have a similar issue - it creates the 1st thumbnail if uploading several files but won't make any more.
Having the exact same issues here. Also getting a 'Division by Zero' error when I click 'Edit Thumb' for those images.
Same here but with a twist. Run WordPress 3.2.1 and 1.8.2 gallery. Everything worked fine with the 1.8.1, no problems. I update and whoosh the menu of the galley vanishes, the galleries are still there but I cannot edit them nor create new one's. Deactivate all my plug-ins one by one, no change. Post it here, no answer yet. I do have to upload and install galleries, so I start looking for an alternative. Download and install Image Gallery with Slideshow by Anblik and lo and behold, the menu reappears and is functional. Disable the Image Gallery with Slideshow, menu disappears again, so enable it again..
Load pictures, works fine save NO thumbnails and No apparent way of creating any. Tries all of the above, does not work, HELP.
Indeed an option to revert to the previous version would be great.
Hopefully this is resolved soon, I have to upload galleries of a show, it IS urgent.
Hello again:
In my case it seems to be Flash related, or something. When I want to upload pictures, I select them and then click "upload". The only thing which happens is that the progress bar at the bottom is added. I then have to click the "upload" button again and things start moving. Sometimes it stops for quite some time but in the end all the pictures are uploaded. Then it shifts to the non-Flash page (as it always did) and adds the progress bar on the bottom (it used to be floating in 1.8.1 now it sits at the bottom) and there it stops. I am pretty sure if it could start it from there that it would work. Now it just sits there, apparently forever.
I hope this sheds some light on where the problem could be.
I really wish I could revert for the moment.
Hoping on a [very] swift solution
It does not work with the non-Flash upload neither.
Same problem here. I have the latest version of both wordpress and the plugin.
The issue seems to be the path. The thumbnails are not being put into the directory for the thumbnails. The thumbnails are created but the path is leading to a directory with no images.
Okay, that would make sense to me.
That's why:
when I changed the settings in the /lib/gd.thumbnail.inc.php
// @ini_set('memory_limit', '128M');
@ini_set('memory_limit', '128M');
the post preview of the pics didn't work anymore.. I can't remember if thumbnail creating did work lol, but the missing post preview pics were reason enough to revert the changes... so I changed it back to
// @ini_set('memory_limit', '128M');
-> post previews are now shown as they should, but the thumbs are not created after upload...
Now I downgraded ngg back to 1.7.4 (the last working version before upgrading of wp and ngg) but the problem still resists. The thumbnails are not being created. After successful uploading the pics the progress bar of the thumbnail creation runs up to 100% and then everything stops .. the popup remains and no thumbs....
Ah.. and now I'm even not able to create the thumbs manually at the gallery's management page anymore. So.. I think right now I have to create thumbs "at home" and upload them afterwards.
And I really wonder about the "able to create a 800x600px picture" message in the gallery's dashboard's plugin-check.
Is it possible that there are more than one problems? E.g. path AND permission problems and/or flash probs?
I've already spend a lot of time to find the mistake and tried to fix it but now I'm helpless.
Any advice please... thanks
I have the same problem : when I upload images (WP 3.2.1 and NGG 1.8.2), some images do not have thumbnail. I've tried to download them again, to create the thumbnails by hand but nothing's working.
Hope a fix will come soon, Alex Rabe is doing such a great job!
I found that if you upload pics one at a time you get thumbnail. Time-consuming but better than no thumbnail!
I will try tomorrow...
Niall, did you do the gallery check at the gallery's dashboard? Do you also get a limited size result e.g. 800 x 600 like me? My other (working) blogs show a limit set to about 3xxx x 2xxx (same provider but older wp/ngg versions). And I use to upload pics that I have resized to 800x600 px before upload... and the thumbs should be 100x100...
Sounds like a memory setting prob?! Don't know....
Good night to everybody ;)
OK, now I am completely lost and saved. As I urgently needed a gallery and the NGG did not work, I started looking for an alternative. None really were to my liking. I installed cube3D. It did not show up but my menu of the NGG showed up again. I checked one of my galleries to which I could not generate the thumbnails. This gallery has two pages, on page one I tried before to generate or re-generate the thumbnails. Now, as by magic they were showing. Page two was still devoid of thumbnails. I tried the re-generate thing. The progress bar (floating again) showed and went through its thing. I had to close the window when finished and no thumbnails were showing. I clicked update and wow there they all were!! Now i created a new gallery and the thumbnails were generated at once, no problem.
Right now thus it works as it should, hope it continues until the fix is there.
I just want to share this as it is worth a try and could provide some clues as to the cause.
Good luck
My gallerycheck show no issues at all, even when it did not generate the thumbnails .
Hi again ;)
Now I checked if a thumbnail is created when uploading only one image: No.
I also upgraded back from 1.7.4 to 1.8.2: no changes, it still doesn't work.
One thing changed since yesterday (without doing anything oO): The plugin Check says, that NO image could be created because the limit is to low...
So I changed the settings in the /lib/gd.thumbnail.inc.php to
// @ini_set('memory_limit', '128M');
@ini_set('memory_limit', '64M');
But this even doesn't solve my problem. Hm...

Edit: I forgot to mention that after setting the memory limit in the gd.thumbnail.inc.php to 64 or 128 also the post preview of the pics doesn't work, so I switched it back.
The plugin can't raise the memory limit if it's limited by the server (= your hoster). Again please read & understand this :
Every new WordPress Version & every new plugin require more memory, also the thumbnail creation works a long time, you could hit the limit during the next upgrade.
See also this post : http://alexrabe.de/2008/03/21/11-3/
You can see a hoster can limit the memory without a chance for my plugin to recognize it.
Hmmm, well, I thought a memory_limit of 50M would be enough but, apparently it wasn't. I just upped it to 120M and thumbnails are working now.
Thanks for the answer - that helps me to save time for now. Sorry that I myself didn't find your explanation of the limit thing while searching for a solution. Of course I had a look at the plugin's page but.. I just didn't find it.
So I hope that my hoster will increase the memory limit. Waiting now for an answer. If not, I fear that I'll have to look for another - less memory using - solution.. or change the hoster *sigh*
I really appreciate the plugin and your consistent work and revision of it, Alex. This is the first time I wasn't able to fix a problem so I asked - thanks for your advice ;)
Tried the memory test & it worked ok.
Tried uploading pictures again & it worked fine.
No idea what's changed - maybe my provider's given me more memory or maybe I was doing something wrong before?
Thanks for your help Alex & everybody else :)
Sorry for my ignorance
I have upped my memory, both bandwidth and quota to 1GB and I am still not able to get thumbs
What memory am I looking for? I have a resellers account with hostgator but cannot see any other memory option.
You need to up the PHP memory, in your php.ini file. For example, my thumbnails are working with 120MB. This is the line I added to my php.ini file:
memory_limit = 120M
Thanks I got that set to 500 m and still no thumbs
The thumbnails are not being created in the thumbnail directory. The path seems correct but there are no files in that folder.
Even after setting the memory limit to 1gb they still give a memory error.
Bye Bye plugin onto something less flaky
Well all I can say is this: ever since I installed and activated the Cube3D plugin, everything works fine with NGG, uploads without a problem and generates the thumbnails without a problem. In fact, I have full functionality in NGG.
This is not machine or ISP related as I work on different machines with different ISP's. One thing they all have in common is the OS: Windows7. I work even with both IE and Firefox, no problem. I did NOT use the Cube3D plug as I prefer NGG because it does not crop the thumb not even when they are portrait!
This might be a dirty solution but it works and I am quite happy with it pending an upgrade and/or fix of NGG.
My upload limit sits at 30 MB by the way and with this configuration I uploaded 37 pictures in one batch and the thumbnails were generated ! The only difference I see is that the progress bar was docked at the bottom (after the upgrade to 1.8.2) and is now floating (again as it used with 1.8.1).

Church loses $160m on investments
- From: The Australian
- October 20, 2009
- Church loses $160m on investments
- Archbishop asks if God is sending a message
- Church will have to cut back programs
THE Sydney diocese of the Anglican Church is fighting for survival after a catastrophic loss of $160 million on its once bountiful share portfolio.
The $160m included about $120m lost when the church cashed out of its investments at the bottom of the market, The Australian reports.
The diocese at one point had $200m invested in shares, with a ban on shares in tobacco or gambling products. The portfolio is now estimated at $44m.
In his annual address to the Sydney synod yesterday, Archbishop Peter Jensen acknowledged the scale of the problem, saying the church was "up against a large challenge and there is no guarantee whatever that we will survive except as a small but wealthy cult".
"The cultural mood is not flowing with us," he said. "Immigrant numbers are not in our favour."
Dr Jensen said he had been asking himself what God was saying "to us, as a diocese, through these large losses? Are there signs of the times for us here?"
He wondered whether the faithful were being punished for unethical behaviour, including the gearing of their investments, or being rebuked for their arrogance in betting the endowment, or was God punishing their bishops for going to GAFCON (the global Anglican future meetings in Jerusalem, that declared that the Archbishop of Canterbury was wrong on gay priests).
"I have been thinking about these legitimate questions," Dr Jensen said. "Can we read the mind of God from such events?"
If so, the message is not good: the losses, which total 60 per cent of the church's endowment, will mean that five bishops will become four; all five archdeacons will be sacked; church programs will get the chop; and renovations to Sydney's St Andrew's Cathedral will be put on hold.
In addition, the church will have to reorganise itself into a mission-style organisation with local leadership encouraged to more self-sufficiency.
Dr Jensen said he was not sure "that God is directly speaking to us through these large losses. When we ask what God may be teaching us, we can think of a number of reasons, and all of them may be quite wrong.
"It may not be our sins at all. Perhaps he is challenging our faith to rely on him more boldly for our finances."

So the whole GFC was just to punish the Sydney Anglican Archdiocese. That is arrogant!
godless of Perth Posted at 7:54 PM October 20, 2009
Why did not the church ask God before investing?
Courtney M of Brisbane Posted at 7:54 PM October 20, 2009
It is so much more important to focus on a relationship with God instead of a relationship with religion. Religion is becoming more and more man-made when the main aim is to have a connection with God.
Jack Sturley of Darwin Posted at 7:42 PM October 20, 2009
It's so refreshing to see all the haters are suddenly experts on God and how He works!
mick Posted at 6:18 PM October 20, 2009
morons. the church needs funds to invest so they can keep on helping the needy. given that i bet 85% of the posters here are working stiffs, that have have no idea on growing money without some risk involved.

Wow it looks blurry, please click for full size.
Nice !
Love the details and colors
I love your art!
Beautiful colours and drawing. And I love that spectral horse.
soo cool what program do you use?
Your stuff are amazing! I'm so breathless from experiencing your work.
Ooh, very interesting. Love that horse with the the visible skeleton. I'm not all that familiar with equine skeletal structure, but it sure looks good to me, certainly a lot better than I would do! Also, glowy eyes. Yes.
fan fan tastic!
Everything just !!!
Your drawings always blow me away! Especially when it comes to the colors you use!
really cool the red skeleton horse is pretty badass
I love this piece! It has a very good composition. I just admire how you created this composition triangle. The first thing what I saw when I looked at this picture was the pinkish face and arms of the dark-haired handsome fellow then when you look at his face we notice that he's looking at the bright eye of a horse, and the horseman is looking at him! And after that it just get better because there's the horse skeleton and the crows! Just love it! Not to mention that the pallet is superb!
Lovely the way you use warm and cool colours to create contrast and atmosphere is splendid!
This is epic in so many ways *__*
Cool! I like the expression on the foreground guy's face
I love the paint strokes and the colors so much! c:
Everything about this is amazing. I just want to see it a little larger for all of the great details!

Land Mines Are Keeping Investigators From MH17 Crash Site
Yet another obstacle.
International investigators' attempts to pore through the wreckage of Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 in eastern Ukraine were thwarted yet again today because of land mines placed on the route, allegedly by pro-Russian separatists. It marked the fourth consecutive day that investigators from the Netherlands and Australia, along with the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe, deemed the crash site too dangerous to visit. Earlier in the week, fighting between the separatists and Ukrainian troops kept them away.
In announcing new sanctions against Russia at the White House yesterday, President Obama did not mention MH17, but he did say the goal of the sanctions were to "ratchet up the pressure on Russia including the cronies and companies supporting Russia's illegal activities in the Ukraine." Last week the president said Russian president Vladimir Putin is responsible for allowing investigators access to the site.
Limited access to the crash site didn't stop one Ukrainian official from announcing a cause of the crash on Monday. Based on examination of the flight's black box recorders, the official said shrapnel hit the plane and caused "massive explosive decompression." The Dutch Safety Board, which is leading the investigation, was hesistant to confirm that conclusion. "We want to analyze [and] combine information of several sources before we bring out anything, so we can give a coherent view on the whole investigation," the group's spokeswoman Sara Vernooij told The Independent. "Bringing out fragmented pieces of information is not on behalf of the investigation."
While the investigators spend another day in Donetsk, waiting for safe passage to the crash site, at least two people have safely made their way there. The parents of a woman onboard MH17 traveled through the war zone last weekend and saw the wreckage. How did the couple safely complete a journey that investigators say is too dangerous to make? "Divine guidance."

JetBrains MPS
|Stable release
|3.3 / March 10, 2016
|Operating system
|Open source Apache License 2.0
JetBrains MPS is a metaprogramming system which is being developed by JetBrains. It implements language-oriented programming. MPS is an environment for language definition, a language workbench, and integrated development environment (IDE) for such languages.[1][2][3]
Composable languages[edit]
Developers from different domains can benefit from domain specific language extensions in general purpose programming languages. For example, Java developers working with financial applications might benefit from built-in support of monetary values. Unfortunately, traditional text based languages are subject to text ambiguity problems which makes such extensions problematic.
MPS supports composable language definitions. This means that languages can be extended, and embedded, and these extensions can be used, and will work, in the same program in MPS. For example, if Java is extended with a better syntax for collections and then again extended with a better syntax for dates, these extensions will work well together.
MPS solves grammar ambiguity issues by working with the abstract syntax tree directly. In order to edit such a tree, a text-like projectional editor is used.[4][5]
Reusable language infrastructure[edit]
MPS provides a reusable language infrastructure which is configured with language definition languages. MPS also provides many IDE services automatically: editor, code completion, find usages, etc.
Existing languages[edit]
- Base Language - 99% Java reimplemented with MPS. There are a lot of extensions of this language
- collections language
- dates language
- closures language
- regular expressions language
- Language definition languages - these language are implemented with themselves, i.e. bootstrapped
- structure language
- editor language
- constraints language
- type system language
- generator language
MPS applications[edit]
mbeddr is an embedded development system based on MPS. It has languages tailored to embedded development and formal methods:[6]
- Core C language
- Components
- Physical Units
- State machines
In October 2009, JetBrains released the YouTrack bug tracking system - the first commercial software product developed with MPS.[7]
Realaxy editor[edit]
In April 2010, the Realaxy ActionScript Editor beta was released, the first commercial IDE based on the MPS platform.
The MPS source code is released under the Apache License.

Bedspread still warms memories
Published: Sunday, September 3, 2006 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, September 2, 2006 at 10:48 p.m.
It must have been almost 40 years ago that my beloved and I went to the Sears store in the mall and saw the most gorgeous bedspread I had ever seen. I simply had to have it. The mall was something new in our area, and we went there now and then just to look around. We didnt have that much money so we never bought anything expensive.
This bedspread was expensive -- considering the year. It was right around the $60 mark, much too steep in price for our little pocketbook. As I examined the object of my dreams I noticed that it said "Made in Italy." My beloved is of Italian descent.
"Look," I said to him. "It was made in Italy." That did it. The bedspread was mine. My beloved and I headed home, both of us glowing with pride at our new purchase. I couldnt wait to start using it. I could just about see in my minds eye how pretty our bed would look with the new bedspread adorning it.
Was that thing heavy, or what! I could barely handle it alone, but I wanted it and now I couldnt very well say it was too heavy for me. So, day after day I struggled to get it on the bed properly. Through all of that I still loved it.
My bedspread, and thats the way I referred to it, was probably meant to be a winter one since its weight was what I used to call "winter-weight." So, when summer came I put it aside and for a lighter bedspread. However, year after year when winter rolled around, I pulled out the massive bedspread and draped it across the bed. As the years sped by, it took every ounce of strength I had to handle the weight of that bedspread.
Finally, after many years, the day came when I knew I would have to get rid of it. It had been cluttering my closet for several seasons without being used. When one of our children had a garage sale, I put the bedspread among the objects to be sold. Someone bought it for $5, I believe.
My beloved, when he found out I was selling it, nearly had a fit. "Why do you want to get rid of that?" he questioned. "It still looks new," he added at the time. And it did still look new, except for the fringe. But I couldnt pick it up any more. Age (mine) had crept up on me, and there were some things I just couldnt do any more. Lifting that bedspread was one of them. It had to go.
Needless to say, I still remember fondly that beautiful bedspread with its bright colors on a maroon background, rich, tapestry-like material, lovely fringe around the edge, but most of all, it was one of the best presents had I ever received from my beloved. I hope the person who bought it at that garage sale has good memories of it also.
It really doesnt take much to make a person happy. I guess I enjoyed that bedspread for over 25 years, and spreading the cost over the years averages less than $2.50 a year. Thats to say nothing of the "residual" memories. Theres a tiny space in my brain that will always be filled with a memory of that bedspread.
Even little memories mean a lot.

I want to add the parent category on a single page so i can apply some specific styling for male and female. I have this code in the functions file:
function wpa76627_class_names( $classes ) {
if( is_singular( 'product' ) ):
global $post;
foreach( get_the_terms( $post->ID, 'product_cat' ) as $cat )
$classes[] = $cat->slug;
return $classes;
but it doesn't pick up the parent category, just the child category. How can i make it show the parent category instead.
Thank you

How to prove a unit norm matrix is the average of two unitary matrix
I assume that the norm is the spectral norm.
By the polar decomposition, any unit norm matrix can be written as $UD$ where $U$ is unitary and $D$ is matrix which, in some basis $E$, is diagonal with non-negative entries not greater than $1$. The diagonal entries can thus be written as $\cos(\theta_1),...,\cos(\theta_n)$ for real $\theta_i$'s. $UD$ is then the average of $U V$ and $U V^*$ where $V$ is the matrix which, in the basis $E$, is diagonal with diagonal entries $e^{i\theta_1},...,e^{i\theta_n}$.

"Belknap Hot Springs" Belknap Springs by visualgirl
Belknap Springs Travel Guide: 14 reviews and 16 photos
We stayed one night at BHS on the recommendation of our son who shared a cabin on the river there. Since we were now traveling with 2 dogs, we were limited to the "dog cabins". What a huge disappointment! What a dump! When the reservation was made, we were informed that the dog cabins had no linens, which was fine. What they don't tell you is the cabins have 0 ammenities and are the shabbiest of the shabby. Just horrible. We were 4 and there were only 3 chairs at the table. When we went to the front desk to inquire about getting another, we were rebuffed and had to fight for it! A chair! They were absolutely not responsive and we were told "you were told there were no ammenities when you made your reservation". Not helpful or accomodating at all. The beds are a mattress on the floor. I would have left, but we decided to stay. Now the good part. The grounds are beautiful. Lots of gardens and walking paths through them. Nice variety and visual interest. (Also, lots of old people in RVs). The pools were great . There are 2 of them - the lower one is better - hotter. BTW, we were discouraged from using the lower pool by the staff for some reason, instead told to use the upper pool because it was "closer" to our cabin...but the upper pool was cold. Were we considered undesirable because we had dogs? Me thinks so. So all in all, we were extremely disappointed by the accomodations, but loved the grounds and pool. Next time, if there ever is a next time, we will stay in the lodge, which HAS to be better. On the way back to Bend, there is a beautiful scenic route which is a must do. There are hiking trails, scenic viewpoints, waterfalls, etc. It has everything Oregon has to offer.
- Pros:The spring pools, lovely manicured gardens.
- Cons:Zero hospitality, horrible cabins
- In a nutshell:Definitely come here & explore, but stay in a river front lodge room.
