John Huff/Staff photographer Contraction crews continue to make progress on the new Little Bay Bridge between Dover and Newington on the Spaulding Turnpike.
DOVER — A grim report on the declining status of New Hampshire's roads, highways and bridges has state officials scrambling to address a funding gap that grows wider each year.Trip, a national transportation research group, recently released a report called "New Hampshire Transportation by the Numbers: Meeting the State's Need for Safe and Efficient Mobility."The report highlights a $74 million transportation funding shortfall in the state that if left unaddressed will lead to continued deterioration in the future.And with a reported one-third of New Hampshire's 4,500 miles of road in poor condition, nearly one-third of bridges in need of repair or replacement, and a high traffic fatality rate due to road conditions, lawmakers and transportation officials caution something must be done."The report underscores, even proves out, the fact I've been saying for five years now that our roads and bridges are getting progressively worse year to year," said Rep. David Campbell, D-Nashua, who serves on the Public Works and Highways Committee.
John Huff/Staff photographer Work continues on the Memorial Bridge in Portsmouth as workers begin to build the counter weight towers.
Campbell's bill would spread the 12 cent road toll increase out over six years for the trucking industry instead of three, and Campbell argued truckers benefit already from New Hampshire having lower gas prices than other states.And, Campbell added, "They do more damage as an industry to our roads. They need to pay their fair share."The NHMTA may not be supporting Campbell's bill, but they have thrown their support behind a proposal from Sen. Chuck Morse, R-Salem, that would allocate revenues from a casino to fund transportation infrastructure."Now we have an option out there that comes from gaming and doesn't tax our people or anyone in the state," Sculley said. During her budget release speech on Thursday, Gov. Maggie Hassan referenced both proposals and said she's prepared to take on the issue."I stand ready to work with any member of either party who is willing to bring constructive, long-term ideas to the table so we can build a consensus solution that will help us begin to improve our roads and bridges and finish I-93," Hassan said.
Completion of the I-93 corridor widening project is currently $250 million short, and Campbell warned if it doesn't see funding, the project will stop at Exit 3 and not reach the critical split to Manchester."That road will fail," he said. "It'll go back to what it was."Boynton noted the high number of traffic accidents occurring on I-93 daily, which lead to backups that impede people's commutes to work.The Trip report highlights a high level of traffic accidents on roads around the state — primarily rural roads — due to maintenance issues. New Hampshire saw an average of 119 fatalities annually caused by traffic accidents between 2007 and 2011, and the fatality rate on the state's non-Interstate rural roads is 3.5 times higher than on other state roads.Moretti, of Trip, said every state experiences higher fatalities on rural roads."That's an obvious place to look when you're looking to reduce traffic fatalities, and states are really approaching that," Moretti said. "But the other part is engineering — making sure the roadway environment is as safe as possible. "
Attention being paid to the whole problem by New Hampshire lawmakers is something Moretti said is happening in more states around the country."What we're seeing this year as we travel from state to state as legislators grapple with these issues is increased awareness that these challenges are getting worse, funding isn't going to come from Washington and solutions have to come from state and local governments," Moretti said. "We're reaching critical mass in a number of states, especially in New Hampshire. State elected officials are realizing this problem is getting worse and recognizing that the real issue is investing in the state's future."

"My 12 yr old grandson made your delicious recipe today by himself to earn points toward his scout cooking badge :) He made two mini loaf pans. One with nuts, one without.
He was very happy and proud with the results. Not to mention, he, his Papa and myself reaped the YUMMY benefits!!!""I made this today after reading the reviews about it being to dry I decided to try adding some extra bananas and some apple sauce did the job had to cook about an extra 10 min but it's so good"
"Very tasty! It was a tad bit dry but that didn't bother me. I used 3 over ripe bananas instead of just ripe. Rather than nuts I added a half cup of chocolate chips to the batter and then I poured it into 4 mini loaf pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes. I like the idea of adding cinnamon. Next time iIll do that !"
"i loved it .it was not dry ."
"awful. threw it out. very dry; lacked flavor. save yourself time & money and make the Best Ever Banana Bread on the website - add chocolate chips if you like it chocolatey."

"There are 1.2 billion people between the ages of 15 and 24 in the world today — and that means that many countries have populations younger than ever before. Some believe that this 'youth bulge' helps fuel social unrest — particularly when combined with high levels of youth unemployment. Youth unemployment is a 'global time bomb,' as long as today's millennials remain 'hampered by weak economies, discrimination, and inequality of opportunity.' The world's 15 youngest countries are all in Africa. Of the continent's 200 million young people, about 75 million are unemployed. On the flip side, an aging population presents a different set of problems: Japan and Germany are tied for the world's oldest countries, with median ages of 46.1. Germany's declining birth rate might mean that its population will decrease by 19 percent, shrinking to 66 million by 2060. An aging population has a huge economic impact: in Germany, it has meant a labor shortage, leaving jobs unfilled." Via Seth Dixon
Alec Castagno's curator insight,
December 17, 2014 11:05 AM
The extremely young median age seen across Africa hints at the problems found throughout the continent. This demographic factor suggests that there are other political, economic, and cultural problems that are influencing these young ages. It shows that most people do not live long lives, and even the older countries on the continent are younger than most other places. The only other place with low ages are the Middle East and Central Asia, and even their populations are several years older than the African continent.

A new edition of Hitler's book may help them confront their past.
David Hulme's insight:
A few years ago I filmed outside the Bavarian prison where Hitler wrote his venomous diatribe. After the failed 1923 Munich putsch, he was sentenced to five years for treason, but served just 13 months. According to historian Ian Kershaw, working on the book gave Hitler "absolute conviction in his own near-messianic qualities and mission." Using phrases from Mein Kampf, Kershaw writes that by the time of Hitler's release from prison at the end of 1924, he had gained "the feeling of certainty that he was destined to become the 'Great Leader' the nation awaited, who would expunge the 'criminal betrayal' of 1918, restore Germany's might and power, and create a reborn 'Germanic State of the German nation.'" Hitler's twisted ideas of national redemption through the violent cleansing effects of a perverted religious science were set—and too many people were prepared to suspend their critical reasoning and listen.

David Hulme's insight:
Social media's hold on us is real. Some age groups are spending three hours or more a day online reading and posting to social sites. The editors of the Hedgehog Review wrote in their Summer 2011 issue, "We spend more and more time in front of screens and less and less time in face-to-face communication, as well as less and less time by ourselves without some means of electronic communication to distract us from any possibility of solitude."

The College News VOL. XXII, No. 13 BRYN MA^R AND WAYNE, PA., WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 19, *936 Copyright BRYN MAWR COLLEGE NEWS. 1936 PRICE 10 CENTS 1939's Class Show Entertains College With Caricatures Management by Different Halls Results in Loose Plot, Many Individual Actors "LOWLY WORM" TAKEN AS FRESHMAN ANIMAL Goodhart, February 15.�With a �melodious plea to the juniors and a satirical wink at the rest of the world, the freshmen raised the cur- tain on 19S6 and All That, their ver- sion of the annual class show. The plot seemed designed to allow them to imitate as many persons and insti- tutions, local and international, as possible. It concerned the trials of the executives in four important na- tions who had all by strange coinci- dence,- married members of the class of 1936 of Bryn Mawr College. Though the five scenes of the first act were managed by the various halls, the entire production was di- rected by Delia Marshall and Bar- bara Bigelow. Nancy Toll was busi- ness manager of the play and also did the lighting. The first five scenes snowed Hitler, Haile Selassie, Mussolini, Lord Chomondely (Prime Minister of Eng- land) and Mr. Onion, of Onion Isle, separately making their final prepa- rations for a journey to Geneva for the purpose of arranging a war. Four of these five statesmen were married, respectively, to Anne Reese, Barbara Cary, Frances Porcher and Pauline Manship. The well-educated women insisted upon forcing their husbands to benefit by the opportun- ities which they had found at Bryn Mawr; and therefore they undertook to teach them languages, diction, body-mechanics and fire drill tech- nique, besides supervising their lead- ership in the affairs of state. The energy of the well-educated consorts was appreciated in different degrees in different countries. The Germans seemed to take kindly to Frau Reese- Hitler, while objecting mildly to fire drills. The English were a trifle shocked, but on the whole, delighted Continued on Pag� Six College Urged to Take May Day in its Stride Goodhart, February 13.�Mrs. Man- ning announced in chapel that it is the purpose of the college, represented by Miss Park, Mrs. Manning and the Fac- ulty, to "take May Day in its stride." The rehearsals will fit into the regu- lar class schedule except during the last week. This is not difficult, except for the laboratory work, if the work on the plays is started in time. The main burden of the organization of May Day is not intended to rest on the student body, and for this reason outside coaches are brought in to take charge of the plays. The plays are short and numerous, and since none of them takes an hour to give, no stu- dent should have too much of her time taken up with rehearsals. No one actor carries a whole play, and the numerous short rehearsals prevent the crowding of rehearsals which often occurs in an ordinary play. After the Easter vacation the at- mosphere on the campus will prob- ably be unfavorable to serious scholarly attempts. It is most im- portant, therefore, that long reports be started and finished, if possible, by Spring Vacation. Weekends will have to be used for rehearsals and for "catching up." Though it may seem a hardship to have to give up one particular weekend, we will later feel that the experience of working together as a college has meant more to us than even a very delightful weekend could. We will enjoy the process of cooperating with the whole college. The midsemester quiz period will be over by Spring Vacation. There will not be more than three con- secutive days of quizzes for any one student, and the period should go smoothly. It should be possible to prepare for the quizzes without any great difficulty. They are not like ex- aminations, and do not need an ex- tensive amount of study. The prob- lems of those few students who have deferred or conditioned examinations will be dealt with individually. It is very important that no group of students, nor any individual, al- low grievances to accumulate. Any complaint or difficulty should be taken to Miss Fabyan or Miss Rose, the undergraduate members of the May Day Committee. 1936 MAY QUEEN How the Wheels Go 'Round Jane Alleyne Lewis Merion Sophomore Will be May Queen Blonde Beauty is Accomplished Violinist, Hopes to Become Designer WAS REGIONAL SCHOLAR FOR FRESHMAN YEAR JANE ALLEYNE LEWIS, '38 Theorems Are Sought For Modes of Meaning Richards Believes New Rhetoric Must Examine Functions of Individual Words PROBLEM IS ABSTRACT (Editor's Note. This is the first of a series of articles on the machin- ery which enables Bryn Mawr to function as a community. It is writ- ten from a purely student point of view from the annual report of the Treasurer and Comptroller, available at the office of the Comptroller.) Until two years ago a small note was attached to the bills which were sent to our parents for tuition stat- ing that the actual cost of educating each student was nearly double the $500- actually charged. This notice has been tactfully omitted recently in deference to the feelings of ear- nest yet hard-pressed parents, but the fact remains that in 1933-1934 it cost the college $970 per student for academic expenses alone and the fee charged remained at $500. In spite of this fact Bryn Mawr is one of the few leading colleges and universi- ties which has had no operating de- ficit since the peak of the depression. Back of these apparently divergent facts lies a realm little known to the students with which the mysteri- ous word "endowment" is usually associated. This world of college finances is kept running smoothly and efficiently with salaries paid and meals served promptly by the per- fect teamwork of President Park, Treasurer Scattergood and Comp- troller Hurst. Each disclaims credit for the remarkable fact the Bryn Mawr pays its bills in spite of a topsy-turvy business world, but each admits that "housewifely" economies have made Bryn Mawr a better housekeeper in these times than- her wealthier brethren. Financially speaking, the college consists of the plant plus about six million dollars in endowment, or in- vested securities, whose income from dividends and interest pays current expenses and maintains the real es- tate property. No one has ever bothered to evaluate the land on which the college stands, and since land values have altered greatly since purchase, the college has no intention of selling out. Recently land in this vicinity has sold for $20,000 to $25,000 an acre, so that the six- ty-two acres of campus could be valued at $124,000. Insurance (blanket insurance spread over fourteen com- panies for absolute safety) is carried on "above ground improvements," which means buildings and contents to the sum of $2,600,000 for 80 per cent of the value. This would bring the total value of the plant, endow- ment, land and buildings to $10,000,- 000, a trifling sum when compared to the tremendous corporations of the men's universities. Investment of Endowment The bulk of the endowment, 69.7 per cent is invested in bonds, with mortgages, real estate, stocks and perpetual insurance in successively decreasing amounts. In watching the market for possible investment openings the Treasurer does not seek the chance for a quick sale, but certainty that *be issuing company will be able to pay off the principal when the investment matures. This conforms strictly to the cautious polfcy of the founder who set forth in his will that the Trustees are "to distribute their investments and to look to the security of the principal invested, rather than to a high rate Continued on Page Four Goodhart, February 17.�In the sec- ond of his series of lectures, Mr. I. A. Richards declared that his purpose was to formulate a theorem about every mode of meaning which would serve as a basic point of view from which to recognize problems of a new rhetoric, and at the same time to at- tempt to solve these problems of dis- course. At the end of his first lecture Mr. Richards had explained that the study of his new rhetoric,' or more specific- ally, the inquiry about how words work, must entail a critical examina- tion of its own assumptions, just as philosophical speculation does. This examination, moreover, must be on a minute scale as well as on a macro- scopic scale; it must investigate the functions of individual words as well as of whole sentences and paragraphs. The student who seeks a theorem on which to base his study of such units of discourse will find much to help him in the old traditional prob- lems. But he will recognize that rhetoricians of the old school regarded discourse as a "battle of words." From the newer, more fundamental point of view, persuasion is only one aim of language, and it often poaches on other forms, such as exposition, whose aim is simply to state a view. Some of the best illustrations of dis- pute poaching on exposition are found I in the correspondence columns of re- views and newspapers, where the writer often takes.other men's words to prove his own contentions. The theorem which is to be funda- mental enough to aid in consideration of this problem (that is, the problem of the rivalries of the different ends of discourse), must of necessity be very abstract and general in the high- est degree. It will have to be ap- plicable to every sort of meaning, but its specific applications should clear up its difficulty. One must start with an abstract, philosophic theorem and proceed to its application in literary forms if the meaning o'f literary forms is to be well under- Two General Problems stood. There will be two general sorts of problems to be considered by means of the theorem to be discovered. The first has already been mentioned: the Continued on Pace Five College Calendar Wednesday, February 19.� Horace Alwyne, F. R. M. C. M., will give a concert in Goodhart Hall. 8.30 p. m.

Bryn Mawr Establishes Exchange Scholarships In an effort to compensate for the loss of foreign scholars on the campus, four exchange scholarships have been established, with the co- operation of the Institute of Interna- tional Education. These exchanges are with France, Germany, Italy and Spain, that is, the four countries which furnish the modern languages of the Bryn Mawr curriculum. Under this arrangement, Bryn Mawr gives board, lodging and tuition to the schol- ars from these countries and has the right to ask of them four to five hours of language teaching. The French Department, which experimented this year with the plan, has had a most satisfactory candidate in Mademoiselle Nasse, licenciee of the University of Bordeaux, who has supplemented the oral teaching of the first year French and has made a great contribution to the undergraduate French Club and the 'group of graduate students in French, with whom she has lived in Radnor Hall. The exchange character of these scholarships is also of immense value, enabling, as it does, a candidate recom- mended by Bryn Mawr to study in each of these four foreign countries.

Will all those wish- ing to try out please come to the News office on Thursday afternoon at six o'clock? The early tryouts will permit six weeks before all assignments must be in, so that May Day need in no way interfere with busy students wishing to try out. All freshmen and sopho- mores regardless of previous training are urged to come down on Thursday. Jane Alleyne Lewis, the only can- didate chosen to compete for the honor by Merion Hall, has been elected May Queen by an overwhelming "popular vote. Sixteen undergraduates were select- ed by the various halls to enter the tryouts for the coveted role. Only., thirteen of them appeared, however, at the first tryout on February 6, when they walked in the Gymnasium to the enthusiastic applause of under- graduates crowding the balcony. From this number three girls, Doreen Canaday, '36, Marian Chapman, '36, and Jane Lewis, '38, were told to ap- pear at the next tryout. Those three tried out again on February 10, in costume, to read the part of Maid Marian. Since a May Queen, in addition to being blonde, beautiful and able to act, must also photograph well, pictures of the three finalists were taken in costume February 11 and posted the follow- ing day. On February 13 the college cast their votes and the next day the election of Miss Lewis was announced to the college. No Stage Aspirations Miss Lewis, chosen as May Queen because of her beauty of face and fig- ure and her quality of photographing well, has no desire to act on stage or screen. Extremely modern, she has considered television work; but her real ambition is to become a designer or a violinist. Although she appeared in dramatic productions at Miss Fine's School in Princeton, where she prepared for col- lege, her connection with the drama at Bryn Mawr has been limited to a part in the Christmas freshman skit in Pembroke a year ago, and to "blow- ing a whistle in Freshman Show when the lines could not be heard." This year she joined Glee Club and became a member of the choir. Miss Lewis has always wanted to be a violinist and has studied violin for ten years, both here and for six months in Paris with M. Hewitt. Years ago she had to decide "whether to be a violinist or a normal child," and chose the latter; but her enthu- siasm has not abated, as she practices regularly and divides her interest be- tween music and designing. She is one of the models most fre- quently in demand for the Art Club here. Her modelling experience dates back to the time when she was "a wee Continued on Page Five Louis Untermeyer Will Speak Here on Sunday Mr. Louis Untermeyer, author and editor, will talk on A Critic's Half Holiday at the Deanery on Sunday, February 23, at five o'clock. Mr. Untermeyer, now among the first of the American poets, was born in New York on October 1, 1885, and began his career in the jewelry manufacturing business of his fath- er's and uncle's firm. He became manager of the chief factory at Newark, New Jersey, but resigned to devote his attention to writing. His first book of poems, The Younger ' Quire, was published in 1910. Since then he has published much original work, including poetry and fiction, and several anth6logies of poetry. His latest-hook, Poetry�Its Appre- ciation anil Enjoyment, appeared in 1934. On Mr. Untermeyer's last visit to the college, he proved such a success that the Entertainment Committee considered holding his lecture next Sunday in the Auditorium in Good- hart instead of in the Deanery. They decided, however, to have the lecture in the Deanery because of its more informal atmosphere.

Qr Decoder in Qt
This article demonstrates how to create a Barcode Decoder program, using the C++ part of ZXing project to process the image and decode it.
Warning: This project is now been merged in the QZXing library's project page. You are advised to search there for the newest version. The decoding operations are gathered in a library file (QZXing) and has support to QML. (17/10/2011)
QQrDecoder project is developed entirely in Qt SDK + using the CPP part of the ZXing library. It supports the latest version of Qt in Symbian (4.7.x) and the camera is controlled using the Camera APIs from Qt Mobility project. Thus we reasure the compatibility with future releases of Qt and the compatibility with newer device with Symbian^3, Belle and Anna (and S60 5th).
The project's folder contains the code as well as the an installation file in case you want try it out without compiling the project.
It currently supports decoding:
- UPC-A and UPC-E
- EAN-8 and EAN-13
- Code 39
- Code 93
- Code 128
- Codabar
- RSS-14 (all variants)
- RSS Expanded (most variants)
- QR Code
- Data Matrix
- Aztec ('beta' quality)
- PDF 417 ('alpha' quality)
Contents |
The three parts of the project
- CameraImageWrapper:
- The porting layer between the ZXing and Qt. Inherits from LuminanceSource (zxing/LuminanceSource.h) which is an abstract class representing a grey-scale image. This class holds the image information in a QImage and 3 methods were needed to be implemented: getWidth(), getHeight() and getPixel(int,int). The first 2 are trivial, the 3rd needed to return an unsigned char representing the grey-scale value of the pixel given as argument so since QImage will contain RGB image in this project, the return value was given by qGray(QImage::pixel(x,y)). New functions added to comply with the latest version of ZXing libary getRow(int, unsigned char*) and getMatrix().
- QCameraControllerWidget:
- This widget is responsible for the camera. All the camera operations are taken from QCamera Example. This is the widget where the image from the camera is shown. When the user presses the button to take a picture, that picture is decoded. If and barcode is found, it is reported with a QMessageBox else nothing happens.
- QQrDecoder:
- the main window class which contains a QCameraControllerWidget instance. QCameraControllerWidget::imageCaptured(QImage) signal is connected to QQrDecoder::decodeImage(QImage) slot, so each captured image is processed to find the "hidden" message inside the Qr Code.
Prerequisites to compile
- Have Qt SDK installed. This will give you all the tools needed such as the Qt SDK, Qt Mobility APIs and the Qt Creator IDE.
Prerequisites to install and run to device
- Have Qt 4.7.3 (and newer) binaries installed to the device.
- Have Qt Mobility 1.1.0 (and newer) binaries installed to the device.
NOTE: those binaries, if Qt SDK is installed, can be found under the path \QtSDK\Symbian\sis\Symbian^X\
Importing the project
For this step, Qt Creator IDE will be used (contained in Qt SDK). The project can be imported/opened with 2 ways.
NOTE: The project folder must be placed under the same drive letter as the installed Qt SDK. For example "C:\QtSDK" and "C:\QtProject\QQrDecoder"
- Go the the project's folder and double-click the QQrDecoder.pro file. This will result the Qt Creator to open. (This requires that Qt Creator is selected as the predefined program to open such files which is automatically set when installing Qt SDK.)
- Alternatively, open Qt Creator manually, and go under: "File" -> "Open File or Project...", go to the project's folder and select once again the QQrDecoder.pro.
Whichever step from the above you have followed, now you are led to screen named "Project Setup". Here you select the Target Platform. You can select "Symbian Device" to target directly for a physical device, or "Qt Simulator" to first test it to the build-in simulator.
Building the project
At this point you have imported the project and you are ready to compile it. At the left toolbar in Qt Creator, above the green arrow you can see the current target platform selected. Press to select which you want.
Now by pressing Ctrl+B or the "hammer icon" on the left at the bottom. Normally this should be completed without errors (might be lots of wrning though which we selectively reject them from our mind :P )
This step compiles the project BUT doesn't produces the .sis file (the installation file). To create the installation file you have to press the "Run button". It that "Green arrow" on your left, or by simply pressing Ctrl+R. Regardless if you have a device or not, the .sis file will be created.
Now you can install it to your device.
Version changes
- 1.3 Support of Aztec barcodes. Speed improvement in 1D decoding.
- 1.2.1 Removed automatic detection (unsupported operations from Qt Mobility). Detection happens by pressing a button.
- 1.2 Added zoom functionality. Added automatic detection (no need to press any button).
- 1.1 Camera Plug-in replaced by Camera API from Qt Mobility. New UI. Now the project is completely written on Qt.
- 1.0 Initial release. Was using Camera Plug-in for S60 3rd.
- File:ZXingBarcodeReader.zip
This is the same implementation but without Qt. The GUI is implemented with Symbian C++ and again Open C++ is required (for the ZXing library to work).
- For the QCamera Example see Nokia_Licence.txt
- For the ZXing code see ZXing_Licence.txt

Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
Are there any diagnostics that can be done to better define (or
stage) lymphedema for more specific treatment recommendations?
Linda McGrath Boyle PT, DPT CLT-LANA, Cancer Rehab Specialist and OncoLink Lymphedema Team Editor, responds:
A physician knowledgeable in the clinical practice of lymphedema management most often makes the diagnosis of lymphedema through physical examination. Your personal health history also provides excellent clues in diagnosing lymphedema. Radiologic testing is often performed in persons to rule out conditions that may cause swelling; in other words, to rule out causes other than lymphedema.Some imaging tests help to support the diagnosis of lymphedema, but are not used to diagnosis the disease of lymphedema, which is based on clinical assessment and health history.
An example of an imaging test is lymphoscintigraphy, which involves injecting dye into the lymphatic vessels and then assessing the direction and volume of lymphatic flow. Unfortunately, there are no "normal" results with lymphoscintigraphy, and the results are not detailed, providing little guidance. Most clinical experts who care for persons with lymphedema do not feel that lymphoscintigraphy is helpful or necessary in most cases.
Although MRI's and CT scans can show swelling, these tests are used to rule out injury or the presence of a tumor. Edema (swelling) volume cannot be easily measured through these tests. Doppler ultrasounds assess problems with the venous system, but do not give information concerning lymphatic compromise.
Mar 6, 2015 - In women with breast cancer-related lymphedema, weight lifting has no significant effect on limb swelling and results in reduced symptoms and fewer lymphedema exacerbations, according to a study in the Aug. 13 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine.

UVa-Wise to participate in Tornado Preparedness Day on March 12
Gov. Bob McDonnell has proclaimed March 12 as Tornado Preparedness Day.
UVa-Wise will participate in the statewide drill. While students and faculty will be on spring break, we encourage everyone to take a moment this week to visit the college website for information on what to do during a tornado. The link is http://www.uvawise.edu/emergency/emergencyprocedures
At 9:45 a.m. on the day of the drill, NOAA Weather Radio will broadcast a test warning from the National Weather Service. The test warning will then be aired by television and radio stations.
When the test warning is heard, the governor's office is asking people to move to a safe area, such as a basement, bathroom or closet on the lowest level of a building.
Last year, 11 tornadoes struck Virginia, injuring six people and causing $3 million in property damage.
the past two years, 62 tornadoes hit Virginia, killing 10 people and injuring
more than 100. More than 210 homes were destroyed, and more than 1,050 were
damaged. Nearly every part of the state was affected, and many communities are
still healing from the damage and loss. Tornadoes are common in Virginia, and
that is why it is critical for state employees and their families to know what
to do and where to go in case of a tornado warning.
the drill, people should go immediately to the lowest level of their building
and move to a windowless interior room, hallway, or closet space, taking a
"drop, cover, and hold" position. This means crouching as low as
possible to the floor, facing down, and covering heads with hands.
All state agencies are encouraged to participate and practice their tornado emergency plans as if a tornado warning had been issued.

Kubuntu/Xubuntu are the same
Kubuntu/Xubuntu are the same as Ubuntu? Following this logic, we could say that Ubuntu, Linux Mint, etc. are similar to Debian and put them all in the same group.
The default programs are different, the look is different, the menus are different, the computer places are different, the experiences are different, the authors are different... and if someone is told to read a documentation page for Ubuntu, it is not valid for the others.

Linux Awards
How about most retrograde pain in the arse Linux development?
I vote for Gnome 3 which I find just about impossible to use.
I vote Gimp a follow up because although useable, just when I learn their menu structure they change it, and any book about gimp is useless because the current version runs differently.
Agree ...
I agree. Gnome 3 really really sucks! Gnome was just about perfect around Gnome 2 as it versatile, configurable, and easy to use, and I liked that I could stuff in many ways. Gnome 3 is just about the opposite. On one of my computers I currently use Gnome 3 in fall back mode and it is almost impossible to configure 8-( and in standard mode I am afraid that I will get a 'heart attack' in annoyance. Why did they fucked up Gnome 2? It's really a mystery!
cinnamon with Gnome3
This is an excellent combination.
Using Fedora, sudo yum install @cinnamon -y
You will have the benefits of the new Gnome libraries but with a cinnamon interface. The Cinnamon interface is much like but better than Gnome 2.
Where is Hedgewas in games
Where is Hedgewas in games cattegory?
Please stick to one standard please ...
I think that the trend of breaking Linux up into a lot of distributions that each change the system just for the sake of doing some change is spoiling Linux and also makes Linux support more difficult that it should be. There is nothing wrong with way that Fedora/Red Hat has set up the structure of the system, and I think that many of the changes made by many of the other distros are hurting Linux! And you as a user are also responsible when you choose some of the distros that changes everything (and Ubuntu is one the worst distros when it comes to making unnecessary changes, fx. when the force people to sodu and lock the administrator account). I therefore mostly use Fedora myself.
Can anyone for example give me just one good reason for changing the 'original' directory structure and start-up script structure etc. made by Fedora/Red Hat???
I think that freedom to change the Linux system is a good thing, but why change stuff that already works perfectly, and why make changes that makes it difficult to write software that can run on all of the distros???
I just think that the list is scary as it shows that some of distros that make many unnecessary changes to the system are placed high on the list! Also I don't understand why people choose fx. Ubuntu instead of Fedora as Fedora works better and more fluently, and it only takes a few minutes to install the additionally commercial stuff when needed!
This is a joke, right?
Original directory structure and start-up script structure made by Fedora/Red Hat???
You, Sir, need to read up on your Unix and Linux history.
I actually know the Linux
I actually know the Linux story very well and have been using Linux for more than 15 years. I think that it has really been spoiling Linux that distros such as fx. SUSE and Debian (and Ubuntu is Debian based) have changed the directory structure and the startup scripts (fx. the structure and placement of the scripts) etc. for no reason at all except just for the sake of change! All the distros could easily have used what was made by Red Hat and later Fedora/Red Hat, and then we would have had just one Linux standard ...
And instead of just claiming that I don't know Linux history then what about coming with arguments as it otherwise make you look like an idiot!
Well after have been thinking
Well after have been thinking a few minutes about my previous comment, then I realise that Debian and SUSE (Slackware based) are also very old (1993), and even though Read Hat was not the first distro, then it was the first really big 'standard' distro used by most people in the beginning (1993-2004)! My point is that it has been spoiling Linux (even though Linux is still the best OS for PC computers), that the different distros among many other things use different directory structures and start-up scripts, as it makes it hard to make a unified documentation, and not at least then it makes it very hard to write software that can easily be installed on all the distros. Therefore I really think that it will help Linux A LOT if the distros start working together and agree on one standard. Maybe it is possible to make some kind of interface in top of the differences so that it possible to make a unified installation system. It is absurd that if you wanna write Linux software then you need to have maybe 10-20 version one for each distro and also update them for each new version of the distros. This really needs to be changed!
far from real
This list is far from real, Java should be top of the list as it is in all other list.
This is a popularity contest and is unable to fairly determine 'best'. The website https://sites.google.com/site/pydatalog/pypl/PyPL-PopularitY-of-Programm... tries to measure popularity using google metrics but has the major flaw of having increased search results not only as a result of popularity but with difficulty in usage. As such, these results make Java look like an awful language as it is ranked quite low here but is far and away the highest searched language. It is also interesting to see that Python is literally eating Perl's lunch from 2004-2012 https://sites.google.com/site/pydatalog/_/rsrc/1355335962769/pypl/PyPL-P...
A better methodology would at least need to know what languages each person voted for and what language they actually had experience with. For example I've worked with all listed except Ruby, Javascript and Erlang. But, I simply can't take these results seriously with C++ coming in second. For example Ada is clearly superior to C++ and didn't even make the list. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_programming_languages
I also don't have any experience with Ruby but from what I know about it, if this was a fair survey then I would anticipate Ruby to be near the top.
On a final note it's good to see Haskell up on the board as it is an outstanding language, despite being esoteric.
Break apart Ubuntu?
Breaking apart the Ubuntu numbers is akind to saying Fedora KDE is not the same as Fedora Cinnamon, or Fedora Gnome. It's still Fedora, and Ubuntu is still Ubuntu.
I'd love to see split out cinnamon and Mate and Unity numbers
On the desktops, I do miss Cinnamon, Mate and Unity. Did you put Cinnamon with GNOME3 or under 'other'?
Telepathy is the name of the
Telepathy is the name of the KDE chat client. This should really have been common knowledge by now; it is the client kubuntu uses, after all...
KDE is awesome
No wonder to see KDE as the best dsktop. I switched to it a few months ago (I was a GNOME2 user before and Unity and GNOME3 are just completely aweful) and is easily the best desktop currently available on computers. Powerful, flexible, customizable and not compromising like other desktops are. And it looks damn good to. Congrats to KDE developers for not compromising on the desktop in favor of tablet intefaces. It's realy the best way to go to create separate interfaces for all these categories which take full advantage of the form factor.
Corrections + the Ruby programming language
HexChat has succeeded XChat, WeeChat not even on the list. Why are both Calligra and KOffice listed, when the latter is dead? Nexuiz has not had a release since 2010 and has been succeeded by Xonotic. Vim is not an IDE - and if it is, so is Emacs. Sun Microsystems has not existed for a long time and Oracle doesn't even use the brand anymore.
Aside from all these corrections, I must say, I'm disappointed at Ruby's position. I think some Linux users avoid it due to being so closely associated with the Mac and web development (which again is largely Mac OS-based), but all the core ruby developers like the great Matz himself use Linux. Apple has its own implementation though and XCode (the Mac OS IDE) supports Cocoa (GUI framework) bindings for Ruby strongly, which is why it's so popular.
Still, Ruby is even more of a first-class citizen on Linux. I wish more people at least took a look, it is a truly fantastic language. I haven't gone back to Python in years, unless I need to look at the code of another person.
I'd just like to point out
I'd just like to point out that Java is not at the bottom of the list. In fact, it's closer to the top.
I feel that nothing more needs to be said about the value of this data.
How can you hope for Steam English... WHEN I'M ALREADY HERE?
" Will Linux users ever get the Steam platform? "
" ... and if Valve can put its weight behind the support of our OS, ..."
The native-Linux client for Steam has been with us since November; it's already offering me the linux version of two Steam games I purchased years ago for use with Windows. That was a really beautiful effort on their part.
And while I'm here: Gmail? As the best Linux email client? As the best *linux* email client? Come on, what about Microsoft WebOutlook as well? Or Alohamail, or Squirrelmail, or any of the other umpteen OS-less mail "clients" that live only in an HTML4-or-better webbrowser ?
I do appreciate the work you do each year, polling your readers and sharing with non-subscribers (without bearing grudges against ex-subscribers like myself). Sometimes, the results of genuine polling can be a real head-scratcher. I kvetched last year about the the "Best Game" category being dominated by decade-old games when so much has happened since, and I'm happy to see the spoiled poll of 'Other' displacing the incumbents; it tells me the Linux Journal readers have broadened their horizons since last year.

Sample size
Its been a long time since I've had a stats course, but I 100,000 would be unnecessarily large sample size. Though I too am unsure with only 100.
Consider the source
I agree with Abe, that it would be good to know the number of responses. But considering this is Linux Journal, I found it surprising that C# is even in the list at all!
How many responses?
So Python is the most popular programming language yet there is no mention of how many responses were received which is important in determining how relevant these results are. If 28% of 100 people (28 people, in other words) picked Python as their favorite language, that result doesn't mean much to me because it's just 100 people--not probably indicative of the programming population as a whole. On the other hand, if there were 100,000 responses and 28,000 of them picked Python now THAT means something. Just saying. Please share how many responses were received.
number of responses
If we go by the assumption that the 0.7% shown by the two lowest scores represent one vote each, the number of responses would be 143.
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Ewa-Marine CD-5 Desiccant Silca Packs will help prevent condensation from forming inside a housing. Condensation will form in a housing when you take it from warm air to cooler water. Internal camera flashes being fired inside the housing will compound this problem.
Since the silica needs some time to act, give it about 10-15 minutes after closing the housing before entering the water. The CD5 is blue in color. Once saturated with moisture they turn red. CD5 can then be reactivated by drying them in the sun (only on a dry atmosphere) or in an oven. This process can be repeated up to five times.

A broken jaw is a break (fracture) in the jaw bone. A dislocated jaw means the lower part of the jaw has moved out of its normal position at one or both joints where the jaw bone connects to the skull (temporomandibular joints).
Dislocated jaw; Fractured jaw; Broken jaw; TMJ dislocation
A broken or dislocated jaw usually heals well after treatment. But the jaw may become dislocated again in the future.
Complications may include:
The most common cause of a broken or dislocated jaw is injury to the face. This may be due to:
Symptoms of a broken jaw include:
Symptoms of a dislocated jaw include:
A broken or dislocated jaw requires prompt medical attention because of the risk of breathing problems or bleeding. Call your local emergency number (such as 911) or local hospital for further advice.
Hold the jaw gently in place with your hands while traveling to the emergency room. A bandage may also be wrapped over the top of the head and under the jaw. The bandage should be easily removable in case you need to vomit.
If breathing problems or heavy bleeding occurs, or if there is severe facial swelling, a tube may be placed into your airways to help you breathe.
Temporarily bandaging the jaw (around the top of the head) to prevent it from moving may help reduce pain.
Treatment for a fractured jaw depends on how badly the bone is broken. If you have a minor fracture, the fracture can heal on its own. You may only need pain medicines and to follow a soft or liquid diet for a while.
Surgery is often needed for moderate to severe fractures. The jaw may be wired to the teeth of the opposite jaw to improve stability. Jaw wires are usually left in place for 6 to 8 weeks. Small rubber bands (elastics) are used to hold the teeth together. After a few weeks, some of the elastics are removed to allow motion and reduce joint stiffness.
If the jaw is wired, you can only drink liquids or eat very soft foods. Have blunt scissors readily available to cut the elastics in the event of vomiting or choking. If the wires must be cut, consult a health care provider promptly so they can be replaced.
If the jaw is dislocated, the health care provider may be able to place it back into the correct position using the thumbs. Numbing medicines (anesthetics) and muscle relaxants may be needed to relax the jaw muscles.
The jaw may need to be stabilized. This usually involves bandaging the jaw to keep the mouth from opening widely. In some cases, surgery is needed to do this, particularly if repeated jaw dislocations occur.
After dislocating your jaw, you should not open your mouth widely for at least 6 weeks. Support your jaw with one or both hands when yawning and sneezing.
Do not attempt to correct the position of the jaw. A doctor should do this.
A broken or dislocated jaw requires prompt medical attention. Emergency symptoms include difficulty breathing or heavy bleeding.
Safe practices in work, sports, and recreation, such as wearing a proper helmet when playing football, or using mouth guards, can prevent some accidental injuries to the face or jaw.

Miniconfs/Libre Graphics Day
From LCA2010
For full details see the libregraphicsday.org.
(the wiki program below is not updated as frequently, the authoritive program is on the site. Although - as this is a wiki, if you notice a discrepancy, update it here, the LGD website is right. Yes, yes it is.)
Libre Graphics Day is a practical celebration and exploration of Free, Libre and Open Source graphic software. Inspired by the fabulously successful Libre Graphics Meeting this is a regional event for those who've stuggled to make it to the annual meeting.
The LGD miniconf is being organised by Donna Benjamin, Jon Cruz and Tina Cruz
Since 2006, the Libre Graphics Meeting has been the premiere conference for developers, users and supporters of projects such as GIMP, Inkscape, Blender, Krita, Scribus, Hugin, the Open Clipart Library, and the Open Font Library gather to get together to work on interoperability, shared standards, and new ideas. Work at prior LGMs has pushed the state of the art in important areas such as color management, cross-application sharing of assets, and common formats.
Face-to-face meetings and opportunities for collaboration are important to developers and users alike; in the form of tutorials, talks, workshops, and birds-of-a-feather (BOF) the event offers many formal and informal opportunities to interact.
We hope Libre Graphics Day plays a small part in further contributing to LGM's aims.

Kyle House, Brewster, Mass.
Warren Jagger
A bike shed and a guest house compose the home's street elevation.
The entry gives a glimpse of the boardwalk, which leads all the way to the painting studio at the back of the property.
Architect James Estes carved out spaces for greenery in between the project's four small buildings.
At the heart of the compound, the boardwalk becomes more of a porch adjoining the main house.
A screened porch at the rear of the main house provides a semi-outdoor option.
The 1,344-square-foot house is topped with a standing seam metal roof and clad in simple, white cedar shingles.
The light colors and straightforward detailing of the interiors emphasize the home's identity as a relaxed, low-maintenance beach house.
Estes/Twombly Architects
The home's site plan.
The home's floor plan.
The jury appreciated the modest scale and straightforward planning of this Cape Cod, Mass., house. "It carries its simplicity through to both the interior and the exterior," said a judge. "It's carefully thought out, even though it looks pretty simple."
Architect James Estes divided the house into four separate buildings, each designed at the one-story scale of the neighborhood. A one-bedroom main house serves as the owner's residence, and a two-bedroom guest house next door accommodates visiting family and friends. (The two structures are connected by a covered walkway.) An existing painting studio and a shed for bikes, boats, and kayaks complete the little shingled compound. A 110-foot-long boardwalk weaves through all four elements, tying them together while referencing the nearby Cape Cod beaches.
Rather than string the buildings along in a straight line, Estes arranged them around the site's best feature, a grassy, tree-ringed area that faces northwest. "By cocking the angle, we were able to enclose the sweet spot and give the house more privacy," he says. "The angle makes it more interesting." Unadorned detailing throughout the project—such as 2x4s used as rafter tails, a sliding barn door on the street-facing shed, and standing seam metal roofs—suits the home's low-key demeanor. "It's no-nonsense," said a judge approvingly.

Go Mobile: http://mobile.fosters.com Newborns christen new wing at WDH
Thursday, February 7, 2013
DOVER — At seven pounds, Gavin Stockman made his entrance into the world in style on Tuesday as the first baby born in the new Garrison Wing at Wentworth-Douglass Hospital.
Unlike his older sister, Gavin was "super quick," she said. Shannon was in actual labor for just two hours. Just 18 minutes before Gavin was born, Adam Myassar was born at the hospital, but not in the new wing. His mother, Amal Bensoudad, labored in the new wing, but had a Caesarean section and delivered Adam in the old unit. The new unit does have a dedicated C-section operating room, which will be open shortly. Originally from Morocco, Amal and Adam's father, Adil Myassar, have a 3-year-old son, Abdou, who was also born at the hospital. Adil said the new wing and the size of the rooms is "excellent," just like the nurses who helped deliver his second son. To thank them, Adil made baklava, a treat he said many people eat back in Morocco. Adil is a chef at a Portsmouth restaurant. Just around the corner from the rooms where Gavin and Adam were being cooed are other rooms to help facilitate the newborns. Hannaford supermarket donated $250,000 to the new wing and have a nursery named after them. The nursery houses a stabilization unit, an isolation room, a room for car seat testing and lactation visits, and rooms made for twins. Some lights in the room are shaped like butterflies and bumblebees to go along with the theme on the floor. There is also a playroom with books, toys and seats for adults.
The floor also has a Jacuzzi room and a water birth room. |
