The holiday gift-buying season is in full swing, and local shops have enough to fill your shopping needs.
Shopping locally is part of a Blair County Chamber of Commerce's "Buy Here. Live Here." initiative started in March "to instill a mindset in local businesses and consumers to purchase products and services from local companies ... when at all possible," Chamber President and CEO Joe Hurd said.
"Local shopping bolsters our area's economy and allows our retailers to have more disposable income to sponsor the arts, our sports teams and anything else that speaks to our quality of life," he said.

An Indian Trust for the Twenty-First Century
Kevin Gover
Arizona State University (ASU) - Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law
Natural Resources Journal, Vol. 46, p. 317, 2006
The statutory and policy bases of the federal trust responsibility for Indian lands arose at the end of the nineteenth century and the beginning of the twentieth century. Policy at that time was based on two related propositions: (1) Indians are incompetent and (2) Indian tribes were soon to be dismantled as political institutions separate from the United States. These notions were basic to the judicial development of the doctrine of federal plenary power over Indians and their property. With these ideas as the foundation of the trust, it grew into a stifling, paternalistic, and ultimately ineffective system of managing Indian property. While virtually all other areas of federal Indian policy have undergone dramatic change, with a radical shifting of authority from the Bureau of Indian Affairs to tribal governments, the trust remains largely ineffective, unenforceable, and immune from fundamental change.
Congress must change the trust to reflect the capabilities of the tribes and to implement the federal policy of empowering tribal governments to meet their responsibilities as permanent components of the American federalist system. Tribes should be offered the opportunity to manage their lands without federal supervision while at the same time sustaining their immunities and authorities regarding trust lands. Congress should create both financial and policy incentives for tribal governments to assume these responsibilities. Congress should clear a path for tribes that wish to use their primary capital asset -- land -- to create the financial resources needed to build viable reservation economies.

Kevin Meaney returns to Jr.'s Last Laugh this weekend
Fans of comedian Kevin Meaney already know his family is Big Pants People; that's a running gag. They may not be aware it's also Big Pat's People, as in St. Patrick's Day. That's no gag, though Meaney admits to gagging on green beer years ago and doesn't drink it anymore.
"My mom's birthday is also on St. Patrick's Day, so that's always a big time of year for us. And with our family being Irish, it's absolutely big," he said. "My mother's name is Pat, so they named her after St. Patrick's Day. We usually go to my mom's house (that day) to have her corned beef and cabbage."
Meany will play two nights at Jr.'s Last Laugh this weekend instead of the usual three due to family duty. He canceled tonight's show so he can watch his daughter Kate play Marian the librarian in "The Music Man," her school musical.
"Now I'm plugging her. This is great," Meaney said with mock indignation. "Believe me, I do not encourage her to do (acting), but she's got it in her blood. She just cracks me up. She's even taking stand-up classes here in New York City without me.
"She's fearless to get on stage. So many people have that fear of public speaking and getting up in front of people. She has no fear of that at all. I hope she keeps that the rest of her life."
Heredity must play a role; they're Big Genes People. Meaney has done stand-up and acting for more than 25 years since he emerged from the Boston area with hilarious tales about growing up Irish in a slightly surreal family. His mom would say things like, "Wipe that puss off your face!" Her biggest, oft-repeated fear: "We're going to lose the house!"
He also break into occasional song parodies, including "We Are the World" where he plays -- with help from wigs and props -- every celebrity performer.
Meaney appeared on "The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson" and was invited to join the panel. He's also done quite a bit of acting, including "30 Rock." In 1986, he was a featured guest on "Saturday Night Live" when William Shatner hosted. Meaney was in a "Star Trek" skit and an infamous parody where Dana Carvey, as James Stewart, beats the stuffing out of old man Potter in the "long-lost ending" of "It's a Wonderful Life."
SNL producer Loren Michaels took a liking to Meaney and cast him in "Sunday Night," a music and comedy show. Don't remember it?
"Nobody does," Meaney said, with a laugh.
He also spent five years on Broadway in "Hairspray," mostly playing The Male Authority figure, who takes on several roles. During that run, Meaney came out as gay, and he references that part of his life in his show -- albeit in his usual witty way.
"I'm still friends with my ex-wife," he said. "I still poke her on Facebook."
He still fills comedy rooms and continues his acting. Look for him, inexplicably, as "the head vampire" in "Blood Ransom" this summer. Coming out didn't affect his career.
"I continue to work after all these years, so I'm flattered and happy and continue on with doing what I love," he said.

In a season full of high scoring games, the Stetson women's basketball team raised the bar on Saturday.
Behind double-figure scoring from seven different players and a 67-point second half, the Hatters (24-5, 16-1 Atlantic Sun) defeated visiting Lipscomb 112-88 at the Edmunds Center to claim their 16th win in a row.
The 112 points was the second highest offensive output in school history and fell just two points shy of the school single-game record.
"We scored a lot of points, but I didn't think we played very well," Stetson head coach Lynn Bria said. "I thought the first half especially we weren't very good. About the middle of the second half we started to guard, and move, and have some intensity about us. It was good that we did that. We just have to do a better job of playing for 40 minutes."
The Lady Bisons (5-22, 2-14 A-Sun) trailed by just five, 65-60, with 10 minutes remaining in the game, but the Hatters rattled off 47 points over the final 9:24 to pull away late. Stetson turned three consecutive steals and a block into nine straight points to get the run started.
"That's when we really started to play," Bria said about that run. "After that I thought our defense was pretty good."
Senior Sasha Sims scored 13 of her 19 points in the second half and went a perfect 5-for-5 from three-point range.
"(The game) was all about intensity," Sims said. "Offensively we had a lot going for ourselves. Our defense could have been a lot better, but overall it was a great team effort."
Lipscomb scored 88 points, a season-high for a Stetson opponent this year. The Lady Bisons did most of their damage from behind the arc, hitting 18 three-point field goals.
"They are going to hit threes; that is what they do," Bria said about the Lady Bisons. "They really weren't scoring in the paint. Anything they tried to get in the paint they didn't get. We still have to scramble out and contest those (three-point) shots."
Stetson dominated the paint, outscoring Lipscomb 60-12 on inside points. Freshman Amber Porter led the way with a 16-point, 10-rebound double-double performance. She also blocked seven shots to become the fifth player in conference history to surpass 100 blocks in a single-season.
"I thought Amber had a complete game," Bria said. "When you look at offense and defense, it was dramatically different when she wasn't in the game. I thought Sasha Sims (also) played a great game."
Brianti Saunders and C.J. Coddington each scored 20 points to lead the offense. In addition to Sims and Porter, Jama Sharp (14 points), Myeisha Hall (13 points), and Cherisse Burris (10 points) also scored in double figures. Sharp added eight assists and four steals.
The Hatters shot 57% (41-for-71) from the floor and 66.7% (10-for-15) from behind the arc. Stetson hit 41 field goals and collected 27 assists, both season-highs.
With the victory, the Hatters tied the school record for most wins in a season with 24 and set up a winner-take-all showdown with Florida Gulf Coast for the regular season title next Saturday in DeLand.

Men's Tennis Almost Upsets No. 16 Illinois
CARMEL, Ind. - The Ball State men's tennis team (0-2) came close to pulling off the 4-3 upset over No. 16 Illinois (2-0) Saturday night at the Carmel Racquet Club.
The Cardinals took an early 1-0 advantage over the Fighting Illini after winning the doubles point. Cliff Morrison paired up with Patrick Elliott to capture the 8-3 victory over Brian Page and Jared Hiltzik at No. 2 doubles. At No. 3 doubles Alexandre Brym and Imanol Arconda took down Ross Guignon and Bruno Abdelnour by a score of 8-5.
At No. 1 singles, Ray Leonard upset Stephen Hoh, 3-6, 6-1, 6-2. Ball State would then lose at No. 2, No. 4 and No. 5 singles. It was a tight match at the No. 6 and No. 3 slots. Elliott managed a three set win over Brian Page to knot the match at 3-3. The match would then be decided between Dalton Albertin and Bruno Abdelnour at No 3 singles. Albertin won the first set 6-4 but would then drop sets two and three 7-6 (4), 7-6 (1).
Ball State will host Detroit Mercy Friday, Jan. 25, for its home opener at the Muncie YMCA Tennis Center at 6 p.m. The Cardinals then face Eastern Illinois and Dayton in a double-header at home Jan. 26.

Ice Climber Killed
Robert Andrew Prosser, 60, of Edmonds, Washington, was killed January 13 in a fall from the top of an ice climb at milepost 8 of State Roue 155 near Coulee City. Prosser slipped off a narrow ledge at the top of the climb and fell approximately 200 feet. He was killed instantly. His obituary in The Seattle Times notes that "There was no equipment failure—it was a simple tragic accident."
Prosser was well-known at the Vertical World gym in Seattle, where he climbed every Wednesday. According to a post on cascadeclimbers.com, he was "soft spoken, really nice guy," who "never drank beer [after climbing at the gym] because he liked his wife better than the rest of us us. Probably a sign of good taste."

LC-MS Gains Favor Due To the...
As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
At times bioprocessors seek to scale up productivity without necessarily expanding facilities or equipment.
"In the past bioprocessors would improve cells first, then work on media and feed regimens to get to where they wanted to be," observes Peggy Lio, senior process science fellow, Gibco® PD-Direct Bioprocess Services, Life Technologies.
Scaleup involved "throwing the process over the fence" to the next link in the development chain, which employs its own media. "But now we look at this exercise more holistically, integrating both media/feed and cell improvement. You can have a cell line that works well, but without addressing media and feed early on, you won't achieve true optimization."
This approach is based on the idea that one can never be certain that cells have been optimized if media and feed are not.
Lio's group incorporates improved media and feed from the earliest stages, using a platform that is appropriate for cell-line development. The challenge as the process moves forward is adopting media and feed that are appropriate for dissimilar development stages.
"Media used in production has certain characteristics that are not always suitable during cell-line development. The trick is finding a basic strategy that works with both," she says.
Lio's notion of "flexibility in scaleup" refers to the ability to improve the titer of established manufacturing processes in situations where changing unit operations, scale, or facilities is impractical or impossible. Processors often desire to obtain the most out of a process without implementing extensive changes that may result in downtime or regulatory scrutiny.
Lio says that in some instances this may be achieved through "functional additives." She was unable to elaborate on what these consisted of due to the proprietary nature of the cell culture media business. She would say, however, that they are "not exotic components" that might add to cost of goods. "They may be components that are already in the medium."
According to David Greene of New York-based biopharm design consultancy Greene Associates, scaling up microbial fermentation is "more interesting" than mammalian cell culture.
"Yields have become so high in cell culture that scaling up the culture is no longer the problem. The bottlenecks now occur in recovery and purification, which have not kept up with upstream processing."
Peggy Lio concurs. "We're not really having problems achieving high titers any more. Many well-developed processes already exist for that. The question now becomes how to fine-tune older platforms and processes."
Microbial cultures are more problem-prone because of their large size. As rising titers have made capacity issues in cell culture processes almost moot, microbial fermentations are still routine at the 20,000 gallon (80,000 liter) scale.
The sheer size and densities of these cultures create issues in mass and heat transfer that do not exist with mammalian cells. Besides smaller scale operation, mammalian cultures tend to be less biomass-dense than microbial cultures.
"Mammalian cells take in a lot of oxygen and don't release a lot of heat," says Greene.
Removing heat from huge microbial systems, by contrast, presents significant problems. At some scale, water jackets cannot remove all the heat. Cooling coils can help, but introduce a cleaning issue. And with both techniques, cells may not withstand the temperature differential between the fermentation and cooling system. Microbial systems also use prodigious quantities of compressed air for oxygenation and agitation. Large fermentations must deal with treating the off-gases and high agitation rates as well.
The comparison between mammalian and microbial cultures comes down to size. The former efficiently produce materials of extremely high value such as monoclonal antibodies; the latter manufacture commodity products such as industrial chemicals, antibiotics, enzymes, and amino acids, hence the larger culture volumes.
Scaleup issues for influenza vaccine produced through the egg inoculation method were resolved decades ago. The introduction of vaccines manufactured through cell culture introduces scaleup issues that are new to this industry.
To meet these new challenges, Protein Sciences relies on a QbD approach to large-scale vaccine manufacturing that claims to produce vaccines at large scale in fewer than 50 days from identifying the target virus.
"Manufacturing a recombinant subunit protein for influenza prevention poses unique challenges, as regular modifications to the antigen are required to protect against circulating influenza viruses," explains Robert R. Boulanger, Ph.D., manager of USP development at the company. Dr. Boulanger has developed a series of standard operating procedures based on his experience with the production and purification of dozens of recombinant human agglutinins (rHAs) through the baculovirus expression vector system (BEVS).
"This approach expedites and streamlines our response to an influenza strain change announcement," he says.
It involves utilizing processes employed for a similar rHA, typically from the same influenza virus subtype H1, H3, or B. If the process produces an acceptable antigen, the new antigen is produced at manufacturing scale. If not, the standard operating procedure defines the process design space.
"This guides the development team through a series of systematic experiments to evaluate specific conditions and identify required process changes for manufacturing batch records. Once the new process is established, the antigen produced is evaluated to verify it meets all acceptance criteria limits," Dr. Boulanger explains.
Implemented properly, QbD improves manufacturing efficiencies, reduces costs, and facilitates the implementation of process changes and improvements.
"The universal process we have developed for our seasonal influenza vaccine, FluBlok®, is a good example of how QbD reduced our timeline from identification of a new rHA sequence to manufacturing at the full cGMP scale," continues Dr. Boulanger.
Protein Sciences follows this strategy for PanBlok®, the vaccine supported by the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority to achieve pandemic flu preparedness. Like the FluBok program, PanBlok is based on the company's prior experience with rHA antigens and flexibility in accommodating the physicochemical properties of new rHA antigens.
The company has also implemented a process monitoring and a continuous improvement program.
To illustrate the success of this approach, on February 28, 2012, an FDA advisory panel announced two strain changes for the 2012–2013 seasonal influenza vaccine.
"We utilized a QbD-based influenza vaccine strain change approach and completed the process from cloning of the new rHA for the A/Victoria/361/2011 sequence to completion of the first 450 L cGMP lot in 50 days," says Dr. Boulanger.

Satan worship at God's own country stirs up a buzz
By Express News Service - KOCHI
Published: 06th Oct 2013 09:48:00 AM
In God's own state the Devil seems to be in demand. The buzz among Catholics who constitute over 20 per cent of the population is that a large number of believers have turned towards Satan and are practicing Black Mass or Satan Worship, according to priests.
The church sees the attempted theft at St Antony's CMI Monastery Church, Aluva, last week as proof of devil worship. The tabernacle where the host—sacramental bread—is kept was found desecrated at the main door of the church. This is not the first incident of its kind being reported in the state. A similar incident was reported in September 2010 at the St Francis Assisi Church, Vellappally, Alappuzha.
There were reports that the bread was stolen by those who practise Black Mass. Following reports that Black Mass is gaining momentum in the state, Alappuzha Bishop Stephen Athipozhiyil had issued a pastoral letter asking laity to be vigilant about the activities of such groups. The Syro Malabar Church had earlier taken a decision not to allow the laity to keep communion bread with them.
The desecration of communion bread is reported to be an important aspect of Black Mass. Though Black Mass is a parody of the Holy Mass in Christianity, it has reportedly turned into the desecration of any thing considered to be divine by other religions, including Hinduism and Islam. Authorities at the St James Church, Cheranallore, under the Archdiocese of Verapoly, have stopped giving communion bread in the hands of the believers, after it was found that the bread is taken away instead of being consumed in the church.
The members of laity have expressed their misgivings regarding the Aluva incident. "We strongly suspect the involvement of an evil group. It may be noted that the offering box in the church remains untouched. The common laity has no use of 'Consecrated Hostia'—the communion bread. Only those who practice Black Mass need it. There were reports that certain groups were active in giving Hosts for cash," points out Jose Vithayathil, the laity commission secretary, the Kerala Catholic Bishops Council(KCBC). Sources close to the KCBC also feel that the involvement of those who practise Satan worship could be suspected.
However, the Aluva police maintain that the incident at St Antony's Chapel was just another case of attempted theft. "We could not trace any link that leads to Black Mass."
Black Mass is believed to be celebrated during the Witches' Sabbath and the sacred host is profaned through bizarre sexual rituals.

May 7, 1926 – March 3, 2013
Elsie May Stryker Miller, of the Town of Tonawanda, counted among her accomplishments having laid the groundwork for establishing an Avon sales representative program at the University of Buffalo campus at a time when women had fewer work opportunities outside the home.
She died Sunday at Weinberg Campus in Getzville. She was 86.
Born Elsie May Durr in Pittsburgh, after graduating third in her high school class in 1944, she qualified for a full scholarship to Allegheny College in Meadville, Pa.
Her plans to study for a career in higher education were put on hold because of World War II, however, and after the war, she married and raised a family.
In 1955, she and her first husband, George Czapko, moved from Cleveland to Buffalo and took over the management of the oriental rug department in J. N. Adam & Co. Department Store.
When the company went out of business in 1960, she and her husband bought out the lease and took over the rug business.
At that time, she went into business selling Avon cosmetics door-to-door and by August 1960, became city sales manager.
Mrs. Miller was given the freedom to develop her sales district and, with the help of her supervisor, developed the first "Diamond Pin District" in the Buffalo area.
During her years with Avon, she was able to lay the groundwork for establishing a sales representative program on the UB campus, giving dormitory students an earning opportunity to help with their expenses.
After her retirement in the mid-1970s, she served as a volunteer on the boards of many local organizations, including the YWCA of the Tonawandas, DeGraff Hospital Auxiliary and the Kiwanis Club of the Tonawandas.
Her first husband, Czapko, died in 1990. Her second husband, Benjamin Stryker, died in 1994. Her third husband,William Miller, died in 2008.
She is survived by a daughter, Gloria Longo; a son, George J. Czapko Jr.; and a stepson, Thomas Stryker.
A service will be at 11 a.m. Saturday in Good Shepherd Episcopal Church, 96 Jewett Parkway.

Wando's perfect seven-game winning streak came to end in Summerville Tuesday night as the Green Wave rolled past the Warriors, 76-51.
With center Matthew Pegram sidelined with a back injury, Wando (7-1) showed a vulnerability in the paint that Summerville attacked throughout the game. The Green Wave regularly drove into the lane for layups, followed their shots for second-chance opportunities and outrebounded the Warriors on both ends of the floor.
Tyler Palmer led the Green Wave with 18 points, John Jenkins added 17 and Timmy Singleton scored 11. Summerville made 26 field goals inside the three-point arc and had five players finish with at least seven points.
"Obviously, we were hurting inside not having (Pegram)," Wando head coach David Eaton said. "He's great at help defense, grabs all the boards. He's our leader down there and you could tell we missed him tonight."
The Warriors offense sputtered without a post presence but struggled mightily shooting from outside. A normally dangerous three-point shooting team, Wando connected on just three three-point attempts.
Summerville (3-1) limited Wando to two points through the first five and a half minutes of the game while it reeled off 11 straight. The Warriors committed eight first-quarter fouls against just one from the Green Wave who held a 19-6 lead by quarter's end.
With his team reeling, Jamez Rogers willed Wando back into the game with a 12-point second quarter. The Warriors closed the half on an 11-2 run, including a buzzer-beating three pointer from Rogers over two Green Wave defenders. Rogers finished with a game-high 25 points.
"(Rogers) went at it tonight on offense," Eaton said. "I'm proud of the way, when we were down, he stepped up, showed a lot of maturity and played really hard."
Summerville took back control with a 15-1 run through the first three minutes of the second half. Rogers cut the lead down to nine with two free throws with just over three minutes left in the third quarter. It'd be as close as Wando would come the rest of the night. No Warriors besides Rogers scored in double digits. Andrew Glover was Wando's second-leading scorer with seven points on two made field goals.
"We hit nothing all night," Eaton said. "We're used to averaging about 20 more points a game than this. We really needed those threes and, obviously, better defense."
Green Wave escapes Lady Warriors
Summerville scored five unanswered points in the final minute and a half to earn a 56-52 win over the Wando Lady Warriors in Tuesday night's opener.
Angela Collins connected on a deep jumper from the wing to give Wando (0-7) its first lead of the second half, 52-51, with less than two minutes to play.
But Chelsi Anderson answered back for Summerville on the ensuing possession, and Heather Chapman followed with two free throws with 40 seconds left to seal the win.
Chapman led all scorers with 21 points. Kimberly Smalls scored a team-high 20 for Wando, while Baleigh Winkler added eight.

Anyone hear any word on the start? My dad called and said he heard that game 3 and 4 would be next Mon/Wed, and I was thinking no way.
I'd think we'd have to start in Chicago Wednesday this week, so that'd be Chicago Wed and Friday, then back in Detroit Sunday and Tuesday.
Just wondering if anyone heard anything, and have any season ticket holders gotten an email about a presale for home games 1 and 2?

Lindy Ruff must have woke up Friday morning thinking he had died and gone to a real hockey heaven. His new team needed help down the middle and within a few hours on the eve of free agency, three centers were on their way to Dallas as if they were ordered on Amazon for next-day delivery.
Ruff spent 14-plus seasons in an organization that generally moved at a glacial pace toward mediocrity before getting progressively worse in recent years. The Stars aren't looking to turn around the franchise as soon as possible. New General Manager Jim Nill has aggressively turned good ideas into action.
It's quite a concept, albeit a foreign one to a guy like Lindy. You can almost imagine him smiling and shaking his head in disbelief, like a kid who found his name on the biggest box under the Christmas tree.
If this week is any indication, Ruff is going to enjoy his time in Dallas. Nill made two trades Thursday that allowed the Stars to acquire Tyler Seguin and Rich Peverley from the Bruins and Shawn Horcoff from the Oilers. They cost the Stars four-time 20-goal scorer Loui Eriksson and four prospects who are 23 or younger.
Was it too much? Maybe. Nobody knows whether the deals will work out, but the Stars deserve credit for taking a gamble and making an attempt to improve. The same can be said for the Bruins. They traded Phil Kessel four years ago for a first-round pick that turned out to be Seguin in an attempt to get better.
Keyword: attempt.
Dallas and Boston could be wrong, but at least they're trying.
Buffalo fans have been conditioned to believe that it takes several years for a team to turn in the right direction. No, it just takes the Sabres several years. For most teams, patience and suffering aren't requirements so much as common sense and a backbone. Almost every team made an honest effort to significantly improve or keep a good roster intact.
Look at the players who signed on the first day of free agency Friday. Daniel Alfredsson and Stephen Weiss landed in Detroit. You never hear about the Red Wings going through a rebuilding phase. They're continually making moves to win the Stanley Cup, which is what made them attractive to Alfredsson and Weiss.
Nill was hardly the only general manager who was active in the trade market with the idea he could markedly improve his team. Something tells me Jamie McBain wasn't part of his master plan. Then again, Andrej Sekera probably wasn't, either. You need assets worth trading in order to acquire players worth having.
Cory Schneider was traded to New Jersey during the draft Sunday. Dave Bolland was sent to Toronto after winning the Stanley Cup with Chicago. He'll join goaltender Jonathan Bernier, who was acquired from Los Angeles.
Bobby Ryan was shipped Friday from Anaheim to Ottawa for Jakob Silfverberg, Stefan Noesen and a first-round pick.
Ruff had to be impressed while watching Nill work Thursday, less than a month after adding veteran defenseman Sergei Gonchar in another swap. Seguin has the potential to become a star if he ever gets his act together. He and Peverley helped the Bruins win the Stanley Cup in 2011. Horcoff is a solid veteran who should be rejuvenated in Dallas.
Evidently, deals were there to be made by teams looking to make them.
Many teams were looking to add scoring. Thomas Vanek should have been traded last season, but he's still here along with Ryan Miller. Both are losing value, not to mention their desire to stay, with every day they're stuck in Buffalo.
It goes back to management.
And that starts with … the owner.
Canadian businessman and lifelong hockey fan Tom Gaglardi pulled the Stars out of bankruptcy two years ago and watched them miss the playoffs in his first two seasons. He was raised knowing the importance of keeping customers happy. His family made its fortune in the hotel and restaurant business.
Gaglardi's biggest decision was firing GM Joe Nieuwendyk, a Cornell-educated and widely respected Hall of Famer who as a player led the Stars to the Stanley Cup over the Sabres in 1999. Ownership didn't need a lame interview with team media to tell him what Nieuwendyk did wrong. Gaglardi looked at the standings and knew it wasn't right.
That's why he turned toward Nill, who spent most of the past 19 years working with a real genius in Ken Holland. You never know how a man will respond in the big chair until he's forced to build his own team, but Nill is getting results. He hired Ruff, a proven coach who for years was asked to do more with less.
Gaglardi now has an organization that's inspired to make it work. His players should know the organization is doing whatever it can to improve the roster, but he's also injecting a healthy dose of discomfort when it comes to job security. Nobody should get too comfortable in Dallas, including the head coach.
It's another new concept for Ruff, who is moving forward with the Stars while his old team continues to be left behind.

Simon Phipps on changes to code repository file storage policies
Open source downloads are an endangered species
With recent news that GitHub is banning storage of any file over 100Mb and discouraging files larger than 50Mb, their retreat from offering download services is complete. It's not a surprising trend; dealing with downloads is unrewarding and costly. Not only is there a big risk of bad actors using download services to conceal malware downloads for their badware activities, but additionally anyone offering downloads is duty-bound to police them at the behest of the music and movie industries or be terated as a target of their paranoid attacks. Policing for both of these—for malware and for DMCA violations—is a costly exercise.
As a consequence we've seen a steady retreat from offering downloads, even by those claiming to serve the open source community. First GitHub bowed out of offering the service, claiming that it was "confusing" for the clients. More recently Google followed suit, bringing Google Code Download services to an end. They stated that "downloads have become a source of abuse, with a significant increase in incidents recently." Community reactions to this have been mixed.
GitHub didn't have an alternative plan for it's users and clearly has no desire to be a full-service community host. Google suggested using its Drive cloud file storage service to host files, though this is clearly far from ideal as, for a start, no analytics are available for downloaders. Small projects are left with a rapidly decreasing number of options. They could pay of course, for S3, but for a free downloader solution SourceForge seem to be the only high-profile answer. SourceForge are doing everything in their power to make it easy for users of Google Code and GitHub to transition across to their service and GitHub have even included a link to SourceForge in their help pages, recommending them as a viable alternative. SourceForge assures us that they have no intention of shutting down their upload/download services at all.
SourceForge providing an alternative is potentially handy for those whose projects would otherwise be held up by this lapse in services and they will no doubt welcome the wave of new users. The issue shouldn't be coming up at all though. Confusion for and abuse by users may sound like reasonable pretexts, but perhaps the real problem encountered by both the closing services is a somewhat less reasonable one. There's a growing expectation that they should regulate the downloads, acting the part of police on behalf of copyright holders.
The pressure to behave that way, whether through a desire to preserve a safe harbour status or simply to tread carefully in the eyes of the law, is an unreasonable hack that appears to mend copyright law online but in fact abdicates the responsibility of legislators to properly remake copyright law for the meshed society and over-empowers legacy copyright barons. These changes to downloads are an inconvenience for open source developers, but should serve as a warning to the rest of us that the copyright system is beyond simple patching.

Thanks for sharing, I actually did not notice Github and Google Code were moving in this direction. Used to self hosting the downloads, and Github 'simply' as development repository.
Actually, Github just announced Releases, a workflow for shipping software to end users: https://github.com/blog/1547-release-your-software
Now that you mention this post, I remember reading about the releases. I guess the difference with Github is in the files (large binaries) not being supported.
Yes, I just found out about Releases today when I re-tweeted OS.com's post. Was there a lot of backlash? Surely Releases wasn't knee-jerk, but they are pretty nimble.
We're glad to host more distros at ibiblio.org Terasaur.org will host contributor managed content of 1 gig - 1 terabyte in size. Occasionally smaller.
We at ibiblio.org are happy to host and distribute distros etc. http://terasaur.org is designed to host contributor managed files of about 1 gig to 1 terabyte.
Launchpad (launchpad.net) hosts some non-trivial open source projects and offers downloads.
Now let's think of a creative way of keeping downloads "on", maybe a decentralized method, maybe a good implement torrent only downloads...
As long as you're hosting your binary somewhere that supports requesting specific ranges within a file (download resuming, basically), you could try BurnBit.
They generate trackerless torrents with your download link listed as a web seed and give you embed code for a button that'll show seeds and leechers.
back before sourceforge and githib the world used mirrors such as this ftp://ftp.heanet.ie/mirrors/ where projects had data at "project.org" and they ran cvsup or svn or some other tool for managing the source tree, we'll end up going back that way but with newer cooler ideas on how contributing and management of core projects are done
it's harsh on those who use git-hub it's harsh on those who use other parties but at the end of the day the idea that if you are interested you will find a way to scratch the itch will work again
it's all fun and changes here on the planet where the only constant is change ;-)
I don't think you can really blame companies for having to deal with the realities of operating online services. I see no issue with GitHub's actions. They are a source code repository, not a file storage service. I would hardly call staying within the bounds of the law an unreasonable hack. Its unfortunate that some people have caused this to be an issue by exploiting these services. Blaming the services for instituting limits on what is largely a free service, though, is like "biting the hand that feeds you".
^My perception is that Simon is blaming the broken copyright law and the lazy copyright holders not GitHub.
I concur with both Simon's point and your view of his point.
Perhaps it's not all the story here, people have in various projects searched for copyright compliance and passed this information back to the upstream when it was found wanting. There was a potential issue in this space, however the community managed it very well. SCO being an interesting agent of change in community perception, which people in various projects have taken to heart and added to their process as a result.
The problem of legacy copyright institutions beating up legit copyright owners is well documented, be it youtube or other places, however the ability to mitigate that problem is harder to manage than herding cats.
The only thing close to it was the whole reaction to SOPA in the US and the reactions to its ilk internationally.
While the OSS community is a threat to the publishers business model and they are a bigger threat to their own business by means of not publishing or releasing to all markets at the same time that's a different story and it actually needs tackling. The job of the publishers as they see it themselves is to control the path to the market.
Back to GitHub they had a genuine gripe against large files, but they set themselves up for it. They had to react if it was going to kill them, they did. The choice of method might be open ot debate as to the elegance of the solution.
https://help.github.com/articles/what-is-my-disk-quota makes for interesting reading. It makes a reasonable case but not a perfect one.
Is it really that the other question that falls out of this is at what point does something that was reasonable become unreasonable and when that happens what is a good way for a group or organisation to react.
The article picture has the great phrase
Change the model
this was what my initial reaction was to.
These are just some thoughts on the broader article, and what it touches on.
To be correct there have been legal issues with source and binaryies not matching. http://gpl-violations.org/news/20130626-fantec_judgement.html
This ruling also put the complaince back on the provider of the device. This might put the complaince requirement back on the webhost.
So there is really a requirement for build farms for places like github to use. So they can be sure the binary they are providing is legal. This also reduces possible malware.
Also changing to where user uploads something as a release instead of general source is another way so you can have that the supplier lied to you.
By the way binaries in git archives is not what you call space effective either. Yes github got its press releases in the wrong order. Releases bit came on line before the repo stuff was disabled. But they failed to send out a press release about Releases feature being implemented first.
Hey github PR guys be a little more careful in future.
Given that maybe one in three open source libraries or utilities will compile when downloaded, as often because one's system is too up to date as not up to date enough, this is awful. I really need to step up my virtualization game if I am going to keep using open source code.

But it seems most conversations about Hybrid are focused on integrating AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Google ECM into existing on-premises systems. Where is all the Private Cloud? What do technology providers need to do to make their offerings more compelling? How should enterprise IT executives and buyers define their focus, needs, and roadmap, and communicate that clearly to the providers?

Complete Internet of Things (IoT) embedded device security is not just about the device but involves the entire product's identity, data and control integrity, and services traversing the cloud. A device can no longer be looked at as an island; it is a part of a system. In fact, given the cross-domain interactions enabled by IoT it could be a part of many systems. Also, depending on where the device is deployed, for example, in the office building versus a factory floor or oil field, security ha...

Gerrit Cole made only four starts at Peoples Natural Gas Field, which is a shame because it could be a long, long time -- if ever -- before Curve fans get to see another pitcher with such electrifying stuff as the 2011 No. 1 overall draft pick.
Cole's Curve tenure came to an end Wednesday when the Pirates promoted the 21-year-old phenom to Triple-A. The first-year flamethrower, who consistently hits 100 mph on the radar gun and complements it with filthy offspeed pitches, was promoted to Altoona on June 15, made his debut five days later and needed only 2 1/2 months to prove himself at this level.
"His stuff is just unbelievable," fellow prized pitching prospect Jameson Taillon said of Cole following the Curve's 2-1 walk-off win over Akron before 3,319 fans at PNG Field.

Gerrit Cole pitches at Peoples Natural Gas Field in Altoona.
Cole was gone and his locker cleared out by game's end. He made 12 starts overall for the Curve -- eight on the road, making his time with the team seem even shorter -- and went 3-6 with a 2.90 ERA.
"We thought this was a good opportunity to get him up to Triple-A and to get into the playoffs and face those challenges up there," Pirates minor league pitching coordinator Scott Mitchell said of Cole, who received a franchise-record $8 million signing bonus.
"He's got plenty enough stuff to pitch in the big leagues right now," Mitchell added.
At this point, there has been no indication the Pirates plan to promote Cole to the majors this year. He's likely to start next season in Triple-A, then possibly could be called up to Pittsburgh once the Super 2 arbitration-eligible period ends in mid-to-late June.
Cole pitched 59 innings for the Curve, giving up 54 hits while striking out 60 and walking 23. He held opposing hitters to a .239 average and had a 1.31 WHIP. He also became the first pitcher in franchise history to throw 100 mph, doing so in numerous starts.
His last start was Monday against Akron, when he threw a career-high 110 pitches and was stretched into the seventh inning for the first time as a pro.
Cole, who turns 22 on Sept. 8, will make one regular-season start for Indianapolis, then will be available to start and go deep into games as long as the team remains alive in the playoffs. He's at 126 innings so far, and Mitchell said the pitcher will not be on any kind of restrictions, plus that it would be ideal if he could get up to 160 innings.
"For me, this was deserved," Mitchell said. "It is a challenge for him to go up there and face men. There's some guys [in Triple-A] that have got a lot of years in the big leagues, and also pitching into the postseason, which that experience is invaluable."
Curve manager P.J. Forbes used an interesting choice of words to describe the promotion.
"This was not something earned but something that was kind of thrown at him to challenge him," Forbes said.
Asked if he thought Cole had not earned the call-up, Forbes said, "This is to challenge him. We bring guys to Double-A all the time that maybe haven't earned being here but to challenge them to see where they're at."
The one area where Cole did not excel during his time in Double-A was with pith efficiency. He often needed 90-plus pitches just to get through five or six innings, and two starts ago he needed 98 pitches to get through 4 2/3 innings.
"I told him to approach it as an opportunity to go up there and prove that he can pitch and be successful at that level and challenged him to use all his weapons and finish innings, because that was his Achilles heel, he struggled to finish innings," Forbes said before adding, "He gets two quick outs here, and the next thing you know he's walked a guy."
Mitchell said it's not unusual for first-year pitchers to struggle with pitch efficiency, especially the college guys because they're used to pitching away from the metal bat.
"The challenge for him is trusting his fastball and that fastballs can break bats," Mitchell said. "I expect him to go up there, challenge hitters and help Indy win a championship."
Taillon was a teammate of Cole's at the beginning of the season at high-A Bradenton and said he was able to get used to the pro lifestyle quickly.
"The tough thing for him is his stuff is just so unbelievably good, honestly hitters have a tough time putting it in play, so he gets a lot of takes," Taillon said. "And if it's a ball it's a ball, they're not really swinging at it at this level and they foul a lot of pitches off because they just can't catch up to his stuff, he's got such great stuff."
SUBHD: Walk-off win
Stefan Welch walked with the bases loaded to force in the winning run and give the Curve a 2-1 victory Wednesday. Altoona tied it up at 1-1 in the eighth on an RBI single by Welch, then found a way to win in its next at-bat.
"This team has been resilient all year," Forbes said, then added, "Regardless of how they look the first seven innings, they don't quit."
Tim Alderson (5-4) won in relief after Brandon Cumpton skated around 11 hits to allow just one run in seven innings. Trey Haley (3-1) lost in relief for Akron.
SUBHD: Game recap
Key player: 3B Stefan Welch went 2-for-3 and drove in both Curve runs.
Key play: Welch walked with the bases loaded and one out in the ninth to bring home the winning run.
Key stat: The Curve enter their final home game today with a 43-27 record at PNG Field.
SUBHD: How they scored
Top 7th: Hernandez doubled, scored on Holt groundout (0-1).
Bottom 8th: Santos doubled, scored on Welch single (1-1).
Bottom 9th: Lambo walked, scored on Welch bases-loaded walk (2-1).

So expressive!
That was definitely my favorite performance so far. She should score under Gao, I think, but she really drew me in. Great lines, energy, and (it seemed like) speed.
is that terry gannon's voice? i liked that marchei program, and i usually get tired of tango flamenco spanish flavor rather quickly. the jumps have neat feet, and she didn't overdo the expression, i'm glad for that. but wow seems like a while since i've seen a gorgeous layback spin position... i am waiting for you, ashley wagner...
SP score: 54.01, and into 2nd
Valentina was very good. I got to say.
I really like Meite's dress too. Gorgeous.
Superbe Marchei! The PCS could be a bit higher I think...
Wow, triple-triple from M-B! It will be interesting to see her scores....

great for meite. really inhabits the music and choreography, her magnetism just blows through the computer screen! MK-ish flashback for me... first skater to make me clap along at home when she lands her jumps
I do like Yretha Silete more, but Mae-Berenice is quite nice too.
