Product Details
Jamie Grimm is a middle schooler on a mission: he wants to become the world's greatest standup comedian--even if he doesn't have a lot to laugh about these days. He's new in town and stuck living with his aunt, uncle, and their evil son Stevie, a bully who doesn't let Jamie's wheelchair stop him from messing with Jamie as much as possible. But Jamie doesn't let his situation get him down. He practices the craft of stand-up every day on friends, family, and the willing customers at his Uncle Frankie's diner. When Uncle Frankie mentions a contest called The Planet's Funniest Kid Comic, Jamie knows he has to enter. But are the judges only rewarding him out of pity because of his wheelchair, like Stevie suggests? Will Jamie ever share the secret of his troubled past instead of hiding behind his comedy act?

After our new understanding about stretching our grocery budget and maximizing nutrition by purchasing seasonal produce, I really want to make an attempt each month to try adding a new fruit or vegetable to our family's menu. Seasonal vegetables are few and far between in Nebraska winters, but there are a few, shipped to our local stores and grown in the United States, that are plentiful AND economical. One of them is kale. I have neither eaten or cooked it before, but decided to give it a try.
Kale is part of the cabbage family and is high in beta carotene, vitamin K, vitamin C, and lutein. It also has high levels of calcium and is known for it's powerful anti-oxidant properties as well as being an anti-inflammatory. Ruffly, deep green leaves make it decorative as a garnish, but it is also fantastic in soups and stews, because the leaves are thicker and hold up better than spinach or other greens. It is a great textural component in any dish.
I went straight to Food.com to look for a highly-rated recipe using kale. It was so cold last night and I was planning a hearty, comfort-food supper, Sausage Potato Casserole. I knew I was going to be doing a variation of my own recipe (It turned out even better!) and I wanted a refreshing side dish with crisp texture to accompany it. I found many recipes that used kale in soups or sautes, but when I ran across the recipe for Lori's Kale Slaw I knew my search was over. And you'll be happy to know I followed it ALMOST exactly, sort of. 🙂 Pretty close, anyway. The ingredient list is long, but most of them are small amounts of spices. My estimate is that the entire salad was made for around $2.00.
Kale Slaw
Yield: 8-10 servings
- 5 cups of chopped kale
- 3 or 4 grated carrots
- 3/4 cup chopped walnuts
- 1¼ cups mayonnaise
- 2 Tablespoons red wine vinegar (I changed my mind after the picture was taken, because I wanted the extra sweetness of the red wine vinegar.)
- ¼ cup sugar
- ½ tsp. allspice
- ½ tsp. thyme
- ½ tsp. oregano
- ½ tsp. paprika
- ½ tsp. cayenne
- ½ tsp. allspice
- ½ tsp. cinnamon
- ¼ tsp. nutmeg
- ¼ tsp. cloves
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. fresh ground black pepper
- Chop the kale. I sliced across the entire bunch in about 1/4 inch strips.
- Grate the carrots and then mix the carrots, walnuts and chopped kale.
- Mix the mayonnaise, red wine vinegar, sugar and all the spices. Then resist the urge to eat this yummy dressing straight out of the bowl. It smells amazing and tastes even better!
- Pour the dressing over the vegetables and walnuts and stir until the veggies are thoroughly coated.
- Though the dressing is creamy and you may be expecting it, this is NOT a creamy salad. As you toss the dressing with the veggies and walnuts, each individual piece will be coated with the delicious sauce. After it is mixed in, you won't see any visible evidence of the dressing, except for a slight shine on your veggies. Once it is thoroughly mixed, refrigerate the salad for at least one hour to allow the flavors to meld.
This salad has a wonderful crunchy texture from the fresh veggies and walnuts and a sweet, peppery bite from the yummy dressing. It was the perfect accompaniment to my latest variation on a savory Sausage Potato Casserole! Delicious!
My next post will be the quick, one pot casserole recipe, pictured above, and the recipe for the money-saving homemade cream of chicken soup I used to make it. You won't want to miss this one!

1996 Dodge Neon Highline 2dr Coupe
This has not been my favorite car but
it has done exactly what I needed it to
do. No more, no less. It has had it's
share of problems though. Drivers
window has never worked right, HEAD
GASKET, A/C, radio, left blinker turns
on when you brake, wears front tires
uneven, door panel broke,... At this
point I am just glad it still starts;
and that is one thing it has always
done, start. It may not be the best
car I have ever had but it gets me to
where I need to go. Great car for new
drivers and collage kids. Just don't
fool yourself into thinking you won't
have any problems with it. Neon
quality is an extinct dinosaur.
design and reliability
quality. Should have been a recall on
the head gasket. Shame on Dodge.
Bought it new.
Had $8500 of body damage 2 weeks after
I bought it. Insurance fixed it(should
have totalled it).
Head cover gasket started leaking oil
around 65000 miles. Had it replaced at
$600. Started leaking again around
80000 miles. Then head gasket blew.
Donated it to charity.
Looks good, fun to drive
Head gasket poorly designed, will at
least leak oil, at most ruin your
Trouble from the beginning, that
summarizes the ownership of this Neon.
I've had the entire AC replaced twice.
In warranty the first time, out of
warranty the second time. Now, at
39,000 miles (I only drive it to work
and back about 100 miles a week) the
head gasket went out. Cost me $1405 to
get it fixed. I went to Edmunds and
found out it's only worth about $1600.
Yes, I was duped. But, you can avoid it
by staying away from Chrysler.
Cute on the outside. Roomy for a little
car on the inside.
Engine design. AC design. Chrysler used
to be a leader in AC; What happened?
I used to own this vehicle and then
traded it in for a "Honda" product.
You just can't compare the two! You
name it, I had it go wrong with my
Neon! Headgasket (twice!), breaks,
fuel indicator...reading full, when in
fact empty....Air Conditioning,
interior lighting, etc..etc..etc!!
Unless, there are significant
improvements, I suggest scrapping the
Neon all together!! And avoid all the
consumer headaches!!!!
I am the original owner of my 1996
Dodge Neon Highline Coupe. I've had it
for 5 years now, and 70,000 miles
later, I'm still very happy with it.
Yes, I've had the head gasket break
too, just like everybody else, but I
took care of the problem, and haven't
had anything go wrong since, besides a
tail light bulb burning out ($1.00
replacement). I drive it hard, and
it's been so reliable that I am not
even thinking about trading it in yet.
I'm planning on keeping this car for at
least another 2 or 3 years. It's been
a great investment!
Handling, reliability, quick
acceleration (for an economy class car)!
I wish I would have gotten the cruise
control feature and a sunroof.

In this issue of AJDC, we publish an interesting survey by Leuschen et al1 and an editorial comment by Grant Morrow,2 who is currently chair of the department of pediatrics at Ohio State University, Columbus. Both deal with the vexing problem of the appointment of PhD faculty in clinical departments, in this instance, departments of pediatrics. I would like to add a "dean's viewpoint," as this issue is encountered repeatedly in colleges of medicine, both in concept and in practice.
Colleges of medicine are confronted today with issues that never arose before, conditioned by the rapidly changing medical and research milieu, and complicated by the basic requirement that teaching of medical students, graduate students, resident physicians, and fellows underlies all of the college's activities. The immediate issue is the blurring of disciplinary lines and titles in assigning faculty positions to departments and

Best Rain Jacket
February 24, 2016
I do not have this exact color (mine is black) but this jacket is amazing. Its like wearing a pair of neoprene waders as a top but is in no way restricts casting. I use it both on boats and surf fishing and it is by far the best foul weather jacket i have owed. It is pretty warm as well which i was not expecting.
4 Stars
I would recommend this item to a friend.
Great Jacket
December 14, 2015
Bought this jacket on sale for a great price from TD. Great Jacket, it's plenty warm and water proof. Plenty of room to wear layers underneath. Love the feel and look. Has a great pocket on the inside to keep cellphone safe and dry. The only criticism I can make is that it does restrict a little bit of movement and when fully zipped it comes up past my chin and is slightly uncomfortable so thats why it doesnt get 5 stars. Overall it's a great jacket for fishing in cold and foul weather.
Pros:Warm roomy waterproof Inside dry pocket
Cons:kind of bulky and restrictive

With "normal" raid1 (say /dev/md0 = /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1 ) I am able to mount /dev/sda1 even if ckraid failed. With lvm : vgscan didn't find my vg00 if /dev/md0 is not present. Therefor I can't recover my system from the remaining disk(s). Is there a way to activate such a volume group ? Mirroring is useless if it requires that all disks are sane. Torsten

He sounds worse than Bush from what I've ever heard about his war policies (might not be correct) but I still think it's high-time for a social change that has been long overdue.

Parkmont School in Alaska
After studying the history, geography, ecology, and culture of Alaska for five weeks in their Main Lesson, eight Parkmont students and their teacher (and a few additional chaperones) headed to Alaska for nine days. Their experience confirmed everything they had learned: Alaska is a vast, beautiful, remote, wild place filled with incredible wildlife and more mountains than you could believe. Our students saw moose, caribou, bears, a wolf, humpback whales and orca killer whales, sea lions, sea otters, puffins, bald eagles, golden eagles, porcupines, porpoises, and much more. They went dog sledding, hiking, glacier sighting, saw Denali National Park, and toured a number of fascinating museums. It was an incredibly fun, educational, exciting, and once-in-a-lifetime trip!

Parkmont's Spring Adventure Day
On Wednesday, April 4, Parkmont students and staff headed out for one of our (many!) adventure trips in and about the city of Washington.

Grady Thrasher & Kathy Prescott: NBAF a 'dark cloud' over Botanical Garden
A Tuesday Banner-Herald feature story, "How our Garden's grown," gives a beautiful and appropriate tribute to the State Botanical Garden, founded as a farsighted and altruistic undertaking by the University of Georgia 40 years ago. Garden Director Jeff Lewis' statement in the article that there is a "feeling of ownership by the greater Athens community" is confirmed daily by the people, including busloads of schoolchildren, enjoying the garden in its peaceful, natural setting between South Milledge Avenue and the Middle Oconee River.
Jack Dohany: Don't hurry, relax behind the wheel
Recent experiences on the road lead me to this observation and a plea: Following too close on the road, also known as "tailgating," is rude, illegal, dangerous, stupid and useless.
Delphine Trimble: Three-laning ill-advised for Cedar Shoals Drive
Years ago, when the high school was built on Cedar Shoals Drive, Clarke County had the foresight to four-lane the street because of the development that surely would occur.

I was so happy when work on the intersection of Jimmie Daniel Road and Georgia Highway 316 started last month. For months, the traffic flow demanded a new design for cars crossing Ga. 316 to southbound Jimmie Daniel Road.
Brian Brodrick: NBAF won't affect the Botanical Garden
Grady Thrasher's and Kathy Prescott's Thursday letter calling the planned National Bio- and Agro-Defense Facility a "dark cloud" hanging over the State Botanical Garden is ridiculous. I've run hundreds of miles at the garden and spent countless hours in the cultivated garden areas, and see little if any potential impact from the NBAF, a building that would be sited nearly a half-mile away, with numerous safeguards.

Simple advice on how to pick(et) your new fence
Need to know: Whether this is a do-it-yourself job or something to leave to a professional. If only a small section of fence needs replacing, you may be able to pick up some pointers at Saturday morning classes offered by home centers (check schedules at your local store). But if you're replacing an entire yard perimeter's worth of fence, or starting from scratch, it's more cost-effective to call a pro who provides a warranty.

If one learns from their mistakes, then this year I should be a pro at growing corn. The first year, I planted the corn in shallow trenches and discovered corn plants laying on the ground after a soaking rain.

Complacency a benefit of citizenship U.S. can't afford

- Bride's smile worth lakhs, for dentists
Shriya Jain's wedding is just around the corner. Besides shopping for her trousseau and making appointments at the beauty parlour, the Chennai girl is making plans to fix her gummy smile."At my engagement, a photographer asked me to smile a little less as my dark gums show. I don't want to spoil the wedding pictures, so I am going to the dentist for gum contouring," she says. Dental clinics across the country are seeing new clients -brides who want to dazzle guests with their pearly whites on their wedding day. Bridal dentistry procedures range from smile correction, which fixes imperfections such as soiled or misshapen teeth, and embedding Swarovski crystals in teeth to laser removal of enamel and replacement with temporary or permanent veneer or crowns to brighten teeth. Permanent treatments such as modifying the jawline to enhance smiles are also popular and can cost up to Rs 2 lakh, say dentists. Other treatments include gingivectomy, reducing the gum's length by a couple of millimetres, which costs up to Rs 50,000, and orthodontic smile design, where the entire tooth structure is modified, at times to mimic an actress' smile, which costs up to Rs 1lakh. In the last couple of years alone, Sushant Umre, of Delhi's Dental Aesthetics, has seen almost a 50% increase in the number of brides-to-be walking in for smile correction. With Bollywood-style videos and candid pictures shot by professional photographers being the trend, girls want to offer their best smile to the camera," says Umre. Archana Narayanaswamy, a Chennai-based dentist, said brides approach them about a month before the wedding. "The bridal market is growing at a healthy pace. From last year, we have seen 50% growth," she says. While gum contouring takes few weeks, patients looking to realign teeth approach clinics earlier. Industry experts, who peg the Indian dentistry market at Rs 7,000 crore, say bridal dentistry accounts for close to 6%. Healthcare startup S10, which connects dentists with patients, has seen a year-on-year growth of 40% in the cosmetic dentistry segment.

Nagpur: A team of 10 students from Visvesvaraya National Institute of Technology (VNIT) has successfully developed a humanoid robot, second only to BITS Pillani's indigenous project, in India. With this, the team has qualified to represent India at the Federation of International RoboSoccer Association (FIRA) RoboWorld Cup, to be held in Beijing, China, between December 14 and 18, 2016.

The college has displayed the robot named 'SWAYAT' at the ongoing three-day techno festival 'AXIS 16' organized in association with TOI. The 44cm, lightweight humanoid was the centre of attraction at the exhibition. After developing the robot at the college's IV Lab, the students modified it to qualify for the championship. "It was a tough task to make our robot track lines and objects to meet the contest criteria. Fitting camera in its eyes, we have made it capable of tracking any white line and walk on it, no matter what the pattern is, " said 3rd year Chemical Engineering student and team member Aniket Gadwe. Besides this, the humanoid should be able to track different objects. "For that, we have induced a mechanism. In our last trial, we made the robot target a red ball kept 2 metres away, track it and move straight towards it, "said Gadwe. Among other exhibits, Ordinance Factory Ambajhari displayed their tools and equipment. A car made by Mechanical Department of the college was also on display. On Saturday, 20 technical events were organized. One of these saw 'Robowar', where student teams designed and fabricated robots which were capable of destroying the opponent's robot in the battle field. In another event, teams came up with bridge made of Popsicle sticks. The challenge was to sustain the load. In a major attraction, best-selling author of 'Shiva Triology' Amish Tripathi had an interactive session with the students in the college auditorium at 6pm.

- Country's wine sales may double in next five years
NASHIK: Wine sale in the country is likely to double to 3 crore litres by the financial year 2020-21 considering the year-on-year growth of 20% for the next five years, according to All India Wine Producers Association (AIWPA). Speaking to TOI, Yatin Patil, president, AIWPA, said, "The wine sales in the country have increased by 21 % during the last financial year 2015-16. Awareness, promotion, education and popularity of wine cocktails were the major factors that led to rise in sales of wine. We are expecting 20% year-on-year-growth for the next five years." He added, "Accordingly, wine sales of the country may touch from 1.40 crore litres in 2015-16 to 3 crore litres by 2020-21 financial year," There are total 95 wineries in the county. Of which, 77 are in Maharashtra, including 39 wineries in Nashik district alone. "Earlier, wine consumption was limited to tier-I cities like Mumbai, Bengaluru and Delhi. But the demand is increasing in tier II and tier III cities due to increasing awareness about wine as a health drink. Moreover, wineries have also started producing low-cost wine to target end consumers. This is also the reason the wine sales increasing in the country," said Patil.

At first, Doug Delk of Cross couldn't believe his good fortune.
"I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me," he said.
But they weren't. Delk really had won $200,000 playing a "scratch-off game" offered by the South Carolina Education Lottery.
After taxes, he got a check for $136,000, more than enough for a new home and truck.
His cash windfall happened on April 20, 2011, when Delk purchased a $10 "Emerald Green 7s" card at Wildwood Convenience Store on South Live Oak Drive in Moncks Corner.
That particular contest has since been retired but the "instant games" continue to thrive as the most popular offerings by the Education Lottery. The instant prizes fall short of the multi-million dollar jackpots of Powerball and Megamillions but they offer immediate gratification — or disappointment — and they can lead to winning plenty of lifestyle-changing cash.
In April, the Education Lottery averaged about $22 million in sales per week. Scratch-off tickets were the biggest sellers, bringing in $15 million weekly. Because of his lottery winnings, Delk has gone from riding a bike to work to a more comfortable lifestyle in which he feels financially secure. The construction worker and commercial truck driver now looks forward to retirement.
With his big prize, Delk said he bought an 11-year-old 1,954-square-foot residence on three acres, an F-150 Ford Lariat truck and another three acres of land. His brother and sister each got $5,000. And he's still got $30,000 from his winnings in the bank.
His story is an example of how winning a smaller prize can change a lottery player's life, said South Carolina Education Lottery officials. Delk continues to play scratch-off games regularly, and spends about $50 daily on them. He recently won $285 on a $10 "Cash Celebration" ticket. He said that he has won $500 some 16 times.
The odds
The Education Lottery offers more than 40 "scratch-off" games ranging in price from the $1 "Three Times Lucky" to the $10 "Triple Wild Winner."
"Our $10 tickets are our most popular followed by $5 tickets," said Holli Armstrong of the Education Lottery.
The most popular game right now is the $10 "Diamond Millionaire 10th Anniversary," which offers a top prize of $1 million. This game also offers a second-chance component where players can enter non-winning tickets for a chance to win $1 million, she said.
The chances of winning something in a scratch-off game are more favorable than the big jackpot games Powerball or Megamillions. Powerball odds of snagging a top prize are 1 in 175 million and the overall odds of winning any prize are 1 in 31.
In contrast, the "Triple Wild Winner" offers 992,431 prizes with a total value of $22.7 million.
The average odds of winning a prize are 1 in 3. The odds of winning nothing are 1 in 1.5. The figures are based on 3 million tickets sold, according to the Education Lottery.
Like Delk, Louis Hymowitz won big playing a scratch-off game — a prize of $75,000 for "Red, White and Blue No. 7." He purchased the winning ticket at Pappy's in Hanahan in August of 2010.
"I saw all the zeros and then my hand started shaking," he said.
He was with his wife Mary."We looked at it and we both started screaming," he said.
He paid $24,000 in taxes on his winnings. With the proceeds, he bought a 1995 Mustang, paid off all his bills and gave each of his four children $2,000. He set up a $30,000 IRA.
"I'm really glad that we didn't spend that money," he said.
After quitting his job at Hanahan Parks and Recreation, Hymowitz, 55, and his wife moved to McDonough, Ga., to be near kids and grandkids, he said.
Wheel of fortune
Although many of the games offer cash prizes, some of them include a unique celebrity experience as a reward.
Thomas Laprise, a waiter in the Goose Creek area, recently won a trip to Hollywood through the lottery's Wheel of Fortune second-chance promotion. He played Wheel of Fortune with hosts Pat Sajak and Vanna White.
In 2009, Laprise won $155,555 when he purchased a $10 "Fantastic 5's" ticket. He has paid off student loans and given money to friends. His new goal is to win a Mustang.
"I'm much more lucky than other people but I also constantly play," he said.
Summerville resident Dee Martin, 64, hit the $100,000 jackpot on a $5 scratch-off lottery ticket purchased at the Kangaroo Express on Central Avenue. It was her first time playing "Triple The Money."
At first, she didn't believe her eyes.
"I figured I'm not reading it correctly. It was just too good to be true," she said.
She and her husband Steve have since paid-off the mortgage. They took a cruise on which Dee Martin won $1,200 playing slot machines.
"I'm changing her name to lucky," Steve Martin said.
Winning the big one
In 2005, Francis Hope Stephenson of Chester was the first in-state Powerball million-dollar winner. After taxes, he received a lump sum of $750,000. Stephenson said he continued to work at his maintenance manager job for two years and then took a medical leave. He bought a new pickup truck.
"We still have money in savings and we live off of our income," he said.
Some players such as Dell Golanski of Charleston employ a systematic approach to the biggest jackpots. Golanski said he won $10,000 playing Powerball using the same numbers for six years. After taxes, he took home $6,800 which he put in a savings account three years ago and still has today.
Golanski, a safety manager for a defense contractor, said it was his first big win playing Powerball. He said that playing Powerball with the same numbers for six years cost him $600 but noted that the return on his investment was worth it. He now plays $1 Megamillions tickets with a new number combination because Powerball doubled its price to $2.
All of the successful lottery players started out as hopefuls like Frank Mottola of Daniel Island, who so far has won a top prize of $60. Last week, Mottola purchased five $1 Megamillions tickets with a grand prize of $15 million. It's a twice-weekly ritual for him.
Mottola bought his tickets at the Exxon station at U.S. Highway 17 and Interstate 526 in Mount Pleasant, where a sign says the store sold a $100,000 Cash 5 ticket.
Mottola said his wife is a pharmaceutical sales rep. At age 53, he is a retired stay-at-home dad.
"We're fortunate. We're blessed," he said.
Still, a new boat, car or a trip would be nice.
"You never know. Someone wins," he said with a grin.

OSHA News Release - (Archived) Table of Contents
OSHA News Release – Region 4
U.S. Department of Labor
Region 4 News Release
Release Number: 05-758-ATL (084)
Date: Monday, May 02, 2005
Contact: Roberto Sanchez Jo Anne Burgoyne
Phone: (205) 731-1534 (404) 562-2076
of Fatal Accident at Bessemer Plant
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. -- The U.S. Labor Department's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has cited United States Pipe and Foundry Company and proposed penalties totaling $71,000 following inspections at the company's Bessemer plant in response to a fatal accident last fall.
On Oct 27, dislodged crane cables struck and killed a foundry employee. Although the company is a molten metal industry health "partner" with OSHA, the agency began a fatality investigation Oct. 28, and initiated plant-wide safety and health inspections on Nov. 4.
"Partnerships, in general, have proven to be an effective tool in reducing worker fatalities, injuries and illnesses. This company focused on reducing employee exposure to noise, silica and lead but failed to address other serious hazards not specified in the partnership agreement," said Roberto Sanchez, OSHA's Birmingham area director.
The company received two serious citations directly related to the fatality, with proposed penalties of $9,500, for failing to have a safety latch on a gantry crane hook and failing to ensure that employees used personal protective equipment, such as hard hats.
OSHA also issued 20 additional serious citations, with proposed penalties of $61,500, alleging other deficiencies in gantry and overhead cranes; inadequate personal protective equipment and eye wash stations for employees working with corrosive materials; improper labeling and storage of hazardous chemicals; failing to provide employees with safety and health training; lack of fall protection; failing to protect workers from electrical hazards; exposing employees to injuries from unguarded machinery; and not properly locking and tagging machinery to prevent start-up during maintenance or repair.
The company has 15 days to contest the citations and proposed penalties before the independent Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission. Staff from the Birmingham OSHA office located at 950 22nd Street North, Suite 1050, conducted the inspection; phone: (205) 731-1534.
Employers are responsible for providing a safe and healthful workplace for their employees. OSHA's role is to assure the safety and health of America's workers by setting and enforcing standards; providing training, outreach, and education; establishing partnerships; and encouraging continual improvement in workplace safety and health. For more information, visit www.osha.gov.

Linux Kernel Internals
Authors: Beck, Böhme, Dziadzka, Kunitz, Magnus, Verworner
Publisher: Addison-Wesley
Price: $45.14 (includes CD)
Reviewer: Phil Hughes
Linux Kernel Internals is an English translation of a book originally written in German and published in early 1994. I was immediately concerned since I have read literal translations from German to English that were very hard to understand.
Fortunately, my fears were unfounded. The translation job is excellent and the content of the book fulfills expectations based on the book title.
If you intend to write kernel code, or a kernel module, or just want to know how the kernel of a Linux system works, this book is an excellent source of information. Also, if you want to know how to build a kernel and understand what you are doing, understand file systems, networking, or even just how a system boots, this book will answer your questions.
As I was reading the book to write this review, I found myself slowing down to carefully understand all the Linux kernel structures. The information is there, and by reading the book cover to cover, you will learn all about the kernel.
On the other hand, if you just want to know about some specific feature—like how timer interrupts work or how to debug a kernel module—that information is included as well, and presented in an easy-to-find, easy-to-understand fashion. But, not too easy. That is, if you don't know C, you are not going to understand most of the book. The information presented is at the code level with snippets of code scattered throughout the book.
After a brief introduction covering Linux in general and compiling the kernel, the book covers important data structures, like the process table, followed by inodes, memory management and timers. Next, how signals, interrupts, booting, the scheduler and system calls work are presented. There is even a section on how to implement a new system call.
The next five chapters deal with specific pieces of the system: memory management, inter-process communication, the file system, device drivers and network implementation. This information is presented in enough detail to clarify the process and enable the reader to write compatible code. The chapter on the file system includes the proc and ext2 file systems.
The final chapter in the main part of the book is on modules, describing what modules are and how they are implemented. The text presents an example module (the PCMCIA card handler), and explains how to debug modules.
The book ends with five appendices. The first details the system calls in much the same way as Section 2 of the man pages, but the calls are sorted by area (processes, file system, etc.) rather than alphabetically. It also tells you where the file with the code to implement the function is located.
The second appendix discusses what the authors call "kernel-related commands". These include free, ps, rdev, top, init, shutdown, strace and mount as well as network, serial and parallel interface configuration.
The third appendix discusses the proc file system. Many people don't realize how important the proc file system is. This short (ten page) chapter explains it and the important information that can be secured from it.
The final appendix explains the boot process, including the MS-DOS boot sector and partition table, and discusses LILO with an explanation of the LILO startup errors (e.g., when you just get LI and the system dies).
The final appendix presents "useful kernel functions". This is an explanation of functions, such as printk(), available to users writing kernel code.
Very little. I think it does an excellent job of covering the material. It doesn't attempt to cover subjects outside its primary focus, and I find that a plus.
The only shortcoming I see is that it covers version 1.2 kernels, not 2.0. Of course, at this time, it would be very difficult to have a book that covers 2.0. Addison-Wesley may decide to update the book before the next printing.
Bottom line, I highly recommend this book for anyone who is serious about writing kernel code or who wants to know what is in the Linux kernel.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide
