No feeling of staying in a hotel or even a B&B here...you are treated as a guest just as if you went to visit at a friend's home. Lots of running room for the kids, rocking chairs for the grandma's and trails to run or walk. The grounds are immaculate, the gardens with flowers of all colors, birds and even buffalo wandering about. In the evening there is a firepit for making s'mores; dark skies for star gazing, a large room to gather and watch TV (sinful to do here in my opinion) and visit with family and friends. The breakfasts were plentiful and delicious, served hot and promptly. Highly recommended for anyone! And we can't forget the beautiful Golden Retriever, Lucy, wandering around making sure everyone is comfortable and checking for dropped food.

Mike Angelino doesn't think he's a hero, but his girlfriend does.
The 43-year-old North Olmsted resident and his girlfriend, Susan Monschein, had just seen "The Bourne Legacy" at Crocker Park's Regal Cinema Tuesday night when they heard a woman yell for help. After hearing the cry two more times, they were moving in the direction of the sound when a man jumped up from between two cars in the parking lot behind the former Borders store, Angelino recalled. The man, who Angelino said had blood on his shirt, said a woman needed help. When Angelino asked the man why he had blood on his shirt, he ran off.
While Monschein tended to the victim, Angelino took off after the man, calling 911 during the chase.[audio:http://westlife.northcoastnow.com/files/2012/08/promenadechase-911call.mp3|titles=promenadechase-911call]
"I'm chasing a guy who just assaulted a girl," Angelino told the Westlake police dispatcher.
"There was pretty much no one else around," Angelino told West Life.
The man, who police later identified as 25-year-old Mitchell Kuhn, ran across the Promenade parking lot toward Detroit Road, Angelino said.
"He was trying to lose me," Angelino said, adding the man tried to run through landscaping bushes in an effort to escape capture.
Three or four times during the chase, Kuhn turned toward his pursuer as if about to fight, Angelino recalled. But that didn't scare off Angelino.
His 911 call to the Westlake police dispatcher recorded Angelino yell at Kuhn in strong, confident voice, "I ain't going away! Stay still!"
Angelino said Kuhn tried hiding under a van. Not wanting the suspect to get to a vertical position where he could fight, the North Olmsted man tried to keep him there by pushing him back under the vehicle until police arrived. Angelino knew police were near because he had heard their siren.
"You're done now, dude!" Angelino told Kuhn.
Kuhn was able to emerge from beneath the van and headed toward a grassy area near Five Guys Burgers and Fries, Angelino said. There, Angelino tackled the suspect as police arrived.
Kuhn, who told police of residences in both Las Cruces, N.M., and Elyria, was taken by police to St. John Medical Center after complaining of chest pains. He was later discharged and taken to the Westlake city jail. Police said he had been drinking and possibly using illegal drugs. He faces a charge of felonious assault.
The victim, a 20-year-old Cleveland woman, has no connection to Kuhn, police said. She was also taken by ambulance to St. John Medical Center, where she was treated for cuts and bruises to the head, according to a Westlake police news release.
Angelino said his girlfriend saw cuts on the victim's face and pools of blood on the ground near her.
Westlake Police Capt. Guy Turner praised Angelino's response to the incident.
"We need more people like him," Turner told West Life.
Angelino said he was never in fear during the pursuit and only became concerned when he lost sight of Kuhn.
"I didn't know if he had a weapon," Angelino explained.
Unlike his girlfriend, Angelino said he doesn't consider himself a hero for getting involved.
"A girl yelled help and he was running the other way," he said when asked what motivated him to give chase. "No motivation needed."

State College, Pa. • It was long after former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky had been arrested, tried and convicted of sexually abusing 10 boys before his wife said she realized just how much trouble he was in.
In an interview this week at her home in State College, Dottie Sandusky said she still had hope even after his 45-count guilty verdict. But when the judge handed down a 30- to 60-year prison term, she said she fully comprehended his predicament.
"I think it was at the sentencing," she said during a 90-minute interview at her dining room table. "I mean, I really and truly believe, I believe in, when you tell the truth and who you are, that things work out."

Charity's stray dog plea
More than 13,000 dogs have run stray or been abandoned in Wales over the past year, according to a survey by the National Canine Defence League.
The charity say that 500 healthy stray dogs had to be put down in Wales in the last year - simply because their owners cannot be traced..
It is calling for dog owners to have their pets microchipped to try and reduce the number of strays on our streets.
Deana Selby, a spokesman for the group which has a centre at Bridgend, said a big problem with stray puppies always emerged in the summer.
"Its then that puppies bought for Christmas become too big or too boisterous and start eating the furniture and their owners decide they don't want them any more, " she said.
"The killing of healthy dogs is sickening.
"Its because people don't think properly and take seriously the responsibility of owning a dog."
Research carried out by MORI for the NCDL also found 17% of councils now offer a microchipping scheme.
Throughout the UK 14,800 stray dogs were destroyed last year out of 113,500 strays picked up and nearly 25,000 were passed into welfare organisations like the NCDL.
Northern Ireland ranked number one for the destruction of dogs with 6,000 of its 11,500 stray dogs put down last year.
In Wales, 18% of stray dogs were rehomed by local authorities, 33% were passed onto welfare organisations, 10% were returned directly to their owners, and 22% were reclaimed by their owners within seven days.

Driven by unsustainable retirement-benefit liabilities and mounting general-obligation debt, Detroit's $18.5 billion bankruptcy filing represents an occurrence surely to be repeated in cities throughout the U.S.
In the end, it was not a question of what would happen, but rather when. Many governors are facing or will face the same set of limited options presented to Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder, and many will arrive at the same conclusion.
Some will surely conclude that the problem requires a federal solution. But the nation already faces unsustainable federal debt levels.
In Detroit's case, one has to wonder whether the feds will override the normal bankruptcy hierarchy and place retiree-medical obligations ahead of bondholder obligations — thereby replicating the 2009 GM bankruptcy proceedings.
Some will argue that even if Detroit's $5.7 billion retiree-medical liability is eliminated entirely, Obamacare will be there, in part or in whole, to absorb any such losses.
Detroit's pension shortfall, initially estimated to be $650 million, is now estimated to be $3.5 billion. Curiously, the city has yet to release the details of these revised higher figures, provided by the actuarial-consulting firm Milliman.
This is now creating a story within a story, one separate from the unresolved controversy pitting the Michigan Constitution — which prohibits pension (contract) impairment — versus the federal bankruptcy code, which mandates appropriate treatment of all creditors.
As the amount of the pension shortfall is debated, the subsequent resolution of any pension deficits promises to be equally problematic. That is, if $3.5 billion represents 60% of the plan's current obligations, will all current and future retirees receive 60% of their benefits?
Or will current annuitants receive, say, 100% with the reconciliation applied to future retirees? Will pensions be continued regardless of the amount of an individual's annual pension? If the city's obligation is ultimately sold to an insurance company to guarantee future payments, what happens if the "best offer" proposes to cover only 50% of the liability?
The bankruptcy process will eventually settle such questions, but the resolution of these questions will be precedent-setting for the next fiscally troubled city.
The reality is that many public-pension systems, such as Detroit's, are simply not sustainable. Over the next five to 15 years, the Detroit scenario is likely to play out in a city near you.
In the end, state policies determine how much or how little pension systems are funded. In contrast, most retiree-medical plans are established on a pay-as-you-go basis. Pension funding is heading in that direction, too, despite the requirement that such systems actually be properly prefunded.
Given the financial pressures on state and local budgets, shorting the pension system — while assuming the existing assets will earn 8% per annum — is a convenient way to avoid raising taxes or cutting preferred programs.
It's even more convenient when it allows politicians to claim that they're "balancing" the current year's budget as they eye the next election season.
While bankruptcy laws are based upon federal statutes, this should not suggest a federal solution is required. We need to reaffirm federalism by having any entity facing bankruptcy propose a solution within the respective city or state.
Also needed is a healthy dose of free-market economics that would allow "a market-clearing equilibrium" to occur — a prerequisite to any real private-sector investments occurring in our major cities. Absent this, the road to recovery will only be postponed, and cities will remain mired in an environment of high crime, high taxes, and failing schools.
Detroit is the leading exhibit in this continuing national saga and has embarked on a good first step. A favorable resolution from Detroit will be a model for other cities that may face this problem in the future.

"Babies most commonly walk between their 10th and 14th month," says Laurie LeComer, author of A Parent's Guide to Developmental Delays. "But walking anywhere from 9 to 15 months is considered within normal ranges." She notes that today's babies appear to be walking slightly later than babies once did, likely due to spending more time sleeping on their backs.
"The gross motor skills that lead up to walking develop in a predictable pattern," LeComer says. "Parents can witness their babies gaining motor control of their heads and necks. Next, babies will progress to rolling over, reaching, and then sitting. Babies then begin to creep and crawl and then stand up on their legs while holding on. About the time of their first birthday, they reach the highly anticipated milestone of walking independently."
At Their Own Pace
It is important to remember that all babies are different, says Dr. Lara Elizabeth Morse, a pediatric neurologist and director of the pediatric development center at Saint Barnabas Medical Center in New Jersey. Not only will they walk at different times, but they will also approach walking differently. "Some kids will crawl first, while other kids will have no interest in crawling," Dr. Morse says.
Signs of Readiness
There is one universal sign that indicates a baby is soon ready to start walking, Dr. Morse says. When you are holding the child, she says to tip the child so the head is going downward. "If their hands go forward to break the fall, it shows the child is preparing to walk soon," she says. A sign that a child may be a late walker is their flexibility, says Dr. Morse. A very flexible child is likely to be a later walker due to slower developing muscle tone.
Is Something Wrong?
When a child isn't walking by his first birthday, many parents become concerned that there is something wrong. Both LeComer and Dr. Morse suggest noting the baby's overall development. Did he tend to be late with other milestones? If so, walking late simply follows the pattern. Were the child's siblings (if any) late to walk? What about the parents? If there is a family history of late walkers, it is more likely your child also will be a late walker.
The Pathways Awareness Foundation, a national nonprofit organization in Chicago that is dedicated to raising awareness about the benefit of early detection and early therapy of movement differences in children, says that at 12 months, typical physical development includes the child pulling herself to a stand and taking a few independent steps. If the child isn't walking at that age but isn't showing any signs of other delays, the parents' best reaction is to be patient. However, if parents note any of the following, they are advised to tell their pediatrician:
- Difficulty getting to stand because of stiff legs and pointed toes
- Only uses arms to pull up to standing
- Sits with weight to one side
- Strongly flexed or stiffly extended arms
- Needs to use hand to maintain sitting
These signs generally point to low muscle tone or delayed development, and these issues can almost always be corrected with physical therapy.
Plenty of children are physically ready but not showing much initiative to take that first step. Dr. Morse says it is OK to encourage the child to walk. "Getting down on the floor and playing with your child will encourage them," she says, not only to walk, but in every other phase of their development.
Safe Steps
If you're eagerly anticipating your baby's first steps, ensure your home is safe. Here are a few tips from Stacy DeBroff, author of The Mom Book: 4,278 of Mom Central's Tips—For Moms from Moms:
- Teach your toddler how to climb up and down stairs on his stomach or his bottom, and have him practice on the lower steps with your supervision. To help your child practice climbing without risking a long fall, move the gate to the third or fourth stair from the bottom.
- Put bells on doors to warn you if a child has opened one, such as a door leading to the backyard.
- Use gates on rooms without doors to keep your child from wandering into dangerous areas.
- Use non-slip carpeting tape under area rugs to hold them in place or place sticky matting under throw rugs to keep them from slipping. If you need something stronger to stop slippage or to prevent your child from tripping, try masking tape around the edges.

n. a person's good name, honor or what the community thinks of him/her. The quality and value of one's reputation is a key issue in suits for defamation (libel and slander) since the damage to one's reputation by published untruths may determine the amount of judgment against the defamer. Sometimes a person's favorable reputation is so great that most defamation cannot do him/her much harm.

Rep. Anna G. Eshoo (D-Palo Alto) announced today that the San Mateo County Transit District was awarded $4.9 million to purchase its first fleet of energy efficient passenger vehicles. The grant comes under the Federal Transit Authority's Bus and Bus Facilities Initiative. Earlier this year, Rep. Eshoo wrote the Federal Transit Administration requesting consideration of the project for the award.
"After 15 years of solid service for community riders, this award will go a long way toward keeping the SamTrans bus system a viable transportation option," Rep. Eshoo said. "With these new energy efficient buses, we will have a 21st century fleet that reduces harmful greenhouse gas emissions, keeps costs down, and helps grow our local economy."
The grant will advance the purchase of a new fleet of energy efficient replacement buses. SamTrans estimates that this project will create or retain manufacturing jobs in the area and will contribute more money to local workers through payment of wages. This project is also part of the Metropolitan Transportation Commission's 2035 Regional Transportation Program and is included in the Regional Transit Capital Inventory, a regional state of good repair database for transit operators in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Welcome to Eric Hameleers (Alien BOB)'s Wiki pages.
This is an old revision of the document!
Discussion about printing with CUPS in Slackware
Please leave your constructive comments on this page.
— Eric
In Slackware 12 with CUPS 1.3.7 I found setting the pdf script to save the file did not work as expected. It appears the script is run as user lp, which cannot change the owner. Rather than remove the sticky bit, I used "sudo chown" to change the owner, of course that meant the following "chmod" failed, so I had to swap the two command. I also wanted to record the title of the pdf, so I added three lines to the script. That part of the script now looks like this: -
''## Normally the PDF file will be emailed to the creating user. ## Alternatively, you can decide not to email it, ## but leave the file on the server and restrict access by others: #if [ "$2" != "" ]; then # $MAILBIN $2 $OUTPUTFILENAME # rm -f $OUTPUTFILENAME #fi if [ "$2" != "" ]; then chmod 700 $OUTPUTFILENAME sudo chown $2 $OUTPUTFILENAME # Save the title of the file echo $3 >$OUTPUTFILENAME.title chmod 600 $OUTPUTFILENAME.title sudo chown $2: $OUTPUTFILENAME.title fi exit 0''
Is there a better way to achieve the same results?
Hi Erik, thanks for this guide! But I got it working only after
I did a chmod 755 on /usr/lib/cups/backend/pdf.
— Jens
Yes you are right. Cups used to run as root (I wrote this article for Slackware 10) but modern cups processes run as user "
lp". The script needs to be owned by user "
lp" or it needs to be "
chmod 755". I've fixed the article, thanks.

White tiles, textured almost hypnotic wall panelling, a crazy upside down chandelier and lots of candles and fun lighting fixtures can be found throughout the entire hotel.
The aim of the ground floor was to make it feel like a traditional hotel with a twist. The reception area is designed in an open styled comfortable practical way. Observe the floating reception desk, the hand carved Chinese dragon chair and the small white facemask sculptures all hand designed for Fitzpatrick Lifestyle Hotels. The " Cheeky Mona Lisa " and King George Graffiti lifts Banksy style.
The main influence has been the world renowned designer Phillip Starck. In his style, we like to keep everything French boutique with a fun and "out of the box" slant on design. The hotel is deliberately designed to be nice, bright and airy during the day and in the evening it tones down to be seductively dim with a "chill out atmosphere" for the tired and weary traveller returning from a busy day at the office or even sightseeing, leaving the big bad world behind them when they step back through the tall "Alice in Wonderland planters" into The Morgan.
In The Morgan Bar the lights dim, candles flicker, music tempo increases and the cocktails start flowing, whether you`re getting ready for a night on the town or just unwinding and ready to retire, sit back, sip ,chat and savour the company in this very cool atmosphere!
Our guest rooms are unique in design. The wardrobes are designed specifically for the hotel; you won't see them anywhere else in the world and replicate the carved wall design on the wall in the lobby. All of the beds are hand carved and made in Milan. Mattresses' have double pocket springs and a quilted top so as you feel you are sinking into a cloud.
The transparent chair is a Philip Stark design. The desk is made using white onyx so that the light goes through it quite easily. These desks light up. The Art in each room is strategically positioned so that the different colours suit different light, moods and relaxation.
At first glance, the lighting seems quite dark, but it is not really, because you have light in specific spaces in the room. We have mood lights beside the beds and the lampshades are handmade in Ireland to create a warm glow in the contemporary rooms. The whole atmosphere is chilled and calm, while still feeling light and white. The rooms are uncluttered and deliberately simple.
The whole idea of the bathroom is to take everything off the floor to make it float and to make the floor space feel bigger, while still feeling airy. There are super speakers under the sinks in the bathrooms too. The White Company from London – supply our toiletries in all bathrooms exclusively to Fitzpatrick lifestyle Hotels. There is a hand held shower for the ladies (who want to wash their hair) and a controller for the rainforest Shower at the other end of the bath so as the temperature can be controlled before entering the shower.
All areas of the hotel deliberately flow into each other creating a smooth relaxed even Zen like atmosphere with a surprise around the next corner.
The Morgan, The Beacon and most recently The Spencer are part of Fitzpatrick Lifestyle Hotels. If you are looking to stay in a bespoke design hotel in Dublin, book online today.

One of my favorite things about running an online magazine all about Bucks County is getting to interview some of the amazing members of the community. Captains of industry, media personalities, innovative entrepreneurs, famous entertainers- they all live in Bucks.
Many people recognize the name Big Lead Sports, the #5 online sports property in the U.S. with more than 15 million unique users per month. What you may not realize is that the blog's founder, Jason McIntyre, lives and works right out of Bucks County. Through a combination of talent; determination; and innovation, Jason has achieved what thousands of online entrepreneurs strive to do by building a respected, well-read online destination with loyal and engaged readers. Just one year ago, the hard work paid off BIG TIME when Big Lead Sports was acquired by Fantasy Sports Ventures.
So what is it like to achieve your entrepreneurial dream? We got the chance to ask Bucks County's very own Jason McIntyre a few questions about his amazing adventure:
BH: What inspired you to become a sports journalist? And how did you begin your career?
JM: Even though my parents weren't big sports fans, I grew up absolutely in love with sports. I'd play 1-on-1 basketball with myself in the basement on a nerf hoop and keep stats and pretend as if I were the announcer, too. I played golf, baseball, basketball, and tennis growing up, and then when high school arrived and I wasn't nearly big enough to compete, I turned to writing, starting with the local papers. In college I joined the school paper while working at the local paper. I applied for dozens of internships and got lucky with a couple. After college I took a newspaper job outside of New York City and plugged away at that for a few years before growing tired of the sportswriter life (all the good events are at night and on the weekend – I was in my 20s and wanted a social life). I made the transition to the entertainment sector (Us Weekly Magazine), which was a fantastic business to be in in the early 2000s. I was going to great parties and had access to all the best restaurants in the city, and traveled to fun events like the Sundance Film Festival, the MTV VMA Awards, and the Super Bowl. Somewhere along the line I had an idea for a sports blog that wrote about the intersection of sports and entertainment. It began as a hobby in 2006, but mushroomed into a business.
BH: At 29 years old, you founded The Big Lead sports blog. What inspired you to start the site? Was the career transition difficult?
JM: There wasn't a moment when the light bulb went off and the site began – it was more of a gradual process. I had been doing some freelance work for ESPN writing about sports and entertainment, but it was somewhat restrictive. I figured a website would give me much more freedom to have fun. I talked with a couple friends about starting a sports blog, but I had very little background on the tech side of things. I was a HTML neophyte. I really had to work on my two buddies to help with stuff like finding a host, setting up the URL and how to post photos (this was in 2006, before YouTube was a big deal).
It was a smooth transition from a writing standpoint … but learning the geeky internet tech side of things was a slow process (and still is). The lifestyle transition wasn't that difficult, either. I was already waking up at 6 am to listen to the Howard Stern show before work, so why not work on the blog for two hours each morning before heading to the office? Then I'd get home at night and work on a couple more posts for the site. My social life started to take a hit, but I was living with my girlfriend (now wife), who was supportive of me essentially working two jobs.
BH: The word "blog" brings along many different connotations in the world of journalism. When you first started out, how did you go about proving yourself as a serious sports journalist on a blogging platform?
JM: Well, that's the funny part – I started the blog anonymously (because I had a full-time job). Initially I was doing basic stuff – humorous takes on player arrests, athletes dating celebrities, and media blunders. About 5-6 months in I decided to add an aspect to the site – media interviews. That was a game-changer for the site and my career. The media loves to read about itself, and even though I'd approach writers at major outlets and not reveal who I was, they'd still answer my questions. Then the media began reading the site and writing about it, and readership ballooned.
BH: What has been the highlight of running The Big Lead? And the biggest challenges?
JM: Being your own boss can't be beat. At the same time, my family and friends looked at me as if I had two heads when I told them in December 2007 I was going to quit my job to work on a website that had gained some traction online. Initially, writing for the site, trying to market it, and attempting to secure ads was just too much. I wasn't making any money on the site at all – a few hundred bucks a month – and initially, that was my biggest hurdle.
BH: Are you involved in any local Bucks County sports leagues?
JM: I used to play in a weeknight basketball league at the NAC, but now I just play pickup there a couple times a week.
BH: Where are some of your favorite places in Bucks County to blog from? And your favorite spots to watch the big games?
JM: The new way to watch a sporting event is not only with your remote in hand, but your computer on your lap. If there's a last-second touchdown or an incredible hit in the middle of the game, watching the game with the computer quickly allows me to post it on the website. Having a smart phone enables me to post to the website from anywhere, but it can be a laborious process, so mostly I just watch games at home. I have this nerdy fascination with announcers, and at bars, you can never hear them. I will occasionally blog from Starbucks to break up the monotony of sitting in the home office with the TV on, but I haven't done much exploring.
BH: Many bloggers dream of achieving what you have- building a loyal, large audience, gaining respect from major media publications, and eventually selling for a huge chunk of change. What advice would you give to those bloggers?
JM: This is probably the question I've been asked the most in the last five years. I probably get it once a week. I usually direct people to a New Yorker article from a few years ago about Toyota's success. The author wrote that rather than trying to make huge, sudden leaps, Toyota defines innovation as an incremental process – making things better on a daily basis. A lot of writers will lose interest in operating their own website if they don't have any readers after a few weeks or months. I had little or no readership for about the first six months of the site (besides family and friends). Based on my experience, I'd say patience and persistence are two of the biggest keys to success in the online world. The other, obviously, is turning a buck on a website, which can also be very, very challenging (and frustrating). I had the good fortune of having a wife who worked a full-time job, which eased the pain of making little or no money after I quit my job.

After Midnight Series: Orange Cab [AUDIO, VIDEO]
ST. CLOUD — Our three part "After Midnight Series" continues today with Orange Cab. Samantha Larson is a taxicab dispatch by day and driver by night. I rode along with her during her Saturday overnight shift.
She started picking up customers and recognized some of their voices from her work as a dispatch. For some, she knew exactly where to bring them home before they even had a chance to tell her their address.
She received about ten pickup calls during the time I spent with her in the taxicab. Most of her customers appeared to be intoxicated.
She says Saturday nights are generally her busiest. On a Saturday night Orange Cab
usually has triple the number of cabs out on the road than they do during weekdays. She says Saturday nights are generally her busiest.
Larson says Downtown St. Cloud is her least favorite area to drive after Midnight.
Larson says she likes driving cab because it's relaxing and the pay is good.

Clarke MacArthur knows that if there's a next time he appears before Judge Brendan Shanahan, he could face an even sterner sentence from the NHL's chief disciplinarian than the one he just completed.
That said, the Leafs forward said Friday he isn't about to change the way he approaches the game. MacArthur sat out the first two games of the season for what he felt was a marginal hit on Detroit's Justin Abdelkader late in the pre-season.
"I knew what (the head shot rule) was before, but I thought it was more along the lines of a hit that could hurt someone, not just brushing the sideburns off of someone," said MacArthur, who will make his season debut Saturday night against Calgary. "I thought it was going to be more based on a hard collision and injuries, not just any little contact.
"I'm still going to finish hits and play my game. I haven't had any trouble before the last incident."
Though MacArthur's going to try to stick to his guns, he says the seed is planted in players' minds before landing a big hit.
"Nobody wants to lose money," MacArthur said. "Guy's definitely think about it. It's a lot of cash to lose (when you are suspended.)"

Severe famine of east Africa continues but people are slowly forgetting
Giraffe carcasses scattered across the barren landscapes of the Horn of Africa show the shocking new effects of the regionâs âforgotten famineâ.
The fact the animals are failing to find vegetation has alarmed aid workers battling to save 10million people from starvation.
As hunger-stricken families fight for survival in overcrowded refugee camps or neglected distant villages, campaigners fear the world has turned away its gaze.
Somalia and Kenya are enduring their worst drought for half-a- century but âdonor fatigueâ could be setting in â as other events now dominate global attention.
Father-of-seven Hussein Roone and his family had 200 goats a year ago â now they have just 17.
He admitted: âWe have no rain for three years. God has created these things and I cannot explain God â it is too awkward.â
Holby City actor Hugh Quarshie, who has just returned from a trip to north-eastern Kenya with Islamic Relief, told Metro: âThe territory that would normally provide pasture for nomadic herdsmen is just arid.
âItâs when you see wild animals dead â especially the carcasses of giraffes â that you realise how extraordinary this drought is.
âThe giraffe is one of the animals that can survive longest in these circumstances, reaching what foliage there is left â but, here, thereâs just nothing.â
A hospital Quarshie visited had one full-time doctor, a couple of nurses and a lab technician â for 150 patients.
He said: âI saw no equipment. Only the children who are most severely malnourished come in to stay and they are often suffering from other ailments such as malaria, pneumonia or TB.â

Graphic design is the process and the art of combining text and graphics to communicate an effective message through the design of logos, graphics brochures, newsletters, posters, signs and any other type of visual communication. Put your imagination and design skills to the test to establish your own pet related business, for example, veterinary office, pet shop, dog walker, pet rescue and or groomer services, complete with its own brand!
The Challenge:
Your challenge is to create a fictitious pet related business and develop its unique identity for graphic design. Projects submitted in the graphic design category require the following:
- Pet Business Logo: The logo will be the main identifying factor for your business and will affect how the rest of your marketing materials will look and feel. It should be something that represents your business concept and can be adapted to multiple types of media. To clearly distinguish your logo it should be displayed separately on a standalone print copy.
- Brochure of Services: A business's brochure is a direct reflection of the business itself. Brochures must have descriptions of services offered and possible examples using layouts and colors and font choices complementing the logo design and staying true to the business's concept. Services must be actual pet related services and templates cannot be used.
- Other Marketing Materials: Your project must also include at least one other branded item that will be used in your pet related business such as business cards, letterhead, coupons, promotional displays, signs, apparel both human and pet related, etc.
Example Software:
Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, The Gimp
Specific Category Rules
- The graphic design project must be in printed form.
- No computers or access to electricity will be allowed.

One of the most common questions asked about virtual platforms is:
Who creates the models?
There are many sources of models and there are people who can make additional models (like Cadence), but obtaining some experience in model creation and virtual platform construction is a great skill to have if you are a software engineer, a hardware designer, or a verification engineer.
Most companies providing commercial virtual platform tools have tools to create models. Cadence has a model creation tool which generates models from register descriptions called tlmgen. Refer to Creating SystemC TLM-2.0 Peripheral Models to understand the flow.
The most important step in the model creation flow is to add the functional behavior for a new model. This was not really covered in the above article. Generally, there are two ways to extend the generated model and implement behavior:
For new model design, I start from the first point to determine what needs to be added to implement the model behavior. Designing models is different than designing hardware in Verilog or VHDL because the actions are much more abstract, and the goal is usually to provide the needed functionality with high performance. This means there is less thinking about state machine design and clocks, and more thinking about the register interface and what is supposed to happen when registers are accessed.
Recently, I found an old piece of scratch paper in my backpack that I had used to create a new model. It was one of those cases where a project needed a model quickly and there was no time for fancy design diagrams.
The picture is a little hard to see, but what I did was draw some pictures of the key registers and fields and map out what kind of actions were needed on reads and writes to those registers, and what kind of side effects (such as changes to other registers) were needed. This helps when the field names are things like MSI, RLSI, TBEI, and RBFI. Without such a planning sheet I find the alphabet soup hard to remember. Each person has their own ways of reading through specs and understanding and capturing key ideas needed for model creation. Feel free to share ways you create models or other design software you use to track and summarize model implementation.
Besides adding functionality, a model developer should think about what he wants to communicate to model users. Good models quietly provide needed functionality, and if things go well users don't even notice the models are there at all; they just work. Sometimes it's important to communicate important information to model users, and there are many ways to do it. Obviously, print statements are common. SystemC also provides a verbosity level and message reporting functions to help control which messages users see. Developers need to decide how to use the SystemC verbosity control and decide what is important and what is not all that important. Personally, I think all of the flexibility provided to model developers is sometimes more of a hindrance than a help.
For example, the default SystemC verbosity level is SC_MEDIUM or 200. What kind of information is "medium"? Then there is SC_DEBUG or 500 which is assumed to provide more information about a model. Consider the debug message below from a model when the verbosity level is set to SC_DEBUG using:
ncsim> scverbosity -set 500
There is also instance specific verbosity, which is normally discovered after you realize you are overrun with messages. This allows users to set the verbosity on a specific instance in the design or even a part of the design using the -recursive option. When developing models ask yourself which software engineer trying to run his code on a Virtual Platform knows that when it doesn't work he should use the instance specific verbosity control to try to get more information from a model? Some might think to do it, but most probably will not.
Virtual Platform tools also provide features such as logging events, messages, and other interesting activity to a log or database for efficient recording. The Cadence Virtual System Platform provides something called the "VSP Log Viewer" which is a database of useful information containing model and software activity. Tools also provide GUI toolkits or parameter displays for models to use to communicate the status of a model or model actions, such as removing the SD card model.
Good models give just enough information to trigger a user's brain to recognize possible problems without overwhelming them with too much information. Tools can help capture, filter, identify, sift, and sort data, but nothing replaces the skills of a good model developer. I bet there are some experienced model developers reading, so please share techniques you use to decide what to share with model users or share stories about past experiences. Maybe there was a situation when you wish you would have shared more or less model information, or a time when you shared just the right information to quickly identify a problem.
Jason Andrews
While working with students I've seen often that it is very difficult for trained hardware engineers to reach the state of programming SystemC in a efficient manner.
On the other hand software engineers don't get the odd concurrent statements SystemC needs to simulate proper hardware.
So the most important part of teaching somebody to design abstract hardware models in SystemC is to make them understand to let it go, and accept a completely different approach to write a similar thing as usual in a different manner.
So in my opinion develop good SystemC models start with a lot of looking in other models and reaching the right state of mind to be able mix hardware and software paradigms right.
Facing an issue into a Virtual Platform's execution you cannot immediately ensure where the problem is : into the executed SW, the model, boths ... the only effective way (I practiced) to verify and dbug is through a pair section : the SW guy sharing his knowledge and implementation and the VP guy doing the same ...

Guilderland Archives The Altamont Enterprise, March 24, 2011
GCSD board incumbents
By Melissa Hale-Spencer
GUILDERLAND Two of the school board members whose seats will be up for election in May Judy Slack and Emilio Genzano are planning to run.
Board Vice President Catherine Barber is stepping down after two three-year terms.
And Allan Simpson, who is serving a one-year term on the board to fill out a vacancy, hasn't yet decided if he'll run again.
The top three vote-getters in the May 17 election will each serve a three-year term. The candidate who comes in fourth will fill out a one-year term.
District residents interested in running for the unpaid post must submit a petition signed by at least 79 district residents 2 percent of last year's voters to the district office by April 18.
Catherine Barber, a lawyer and a musician, got involved in school functions when her children were young. Her daughter is now in college and her son is a senior at Guilderland High School. "Now that my son is graduating," said Barber, she would too.
She said she might step up again if she has grandchildren some day.
She was first inspired to run for the board when she read an exit interview in The Enterprise when David Picker was retiring from his post as school board president.
"He said parents should run, and I thought, 'Why not me?'"
Barber was the top vote-getter in both of her races for school board.
She headed the board's communication committee when it came up with the idea of holding coffee klatches so board members could chat informally with the public. She also chaired the policy committee when it developed a groundbreaking policy curbing cyberbullying.
Although soft-spoken, Barber has often been outspoken on the board. Last year, she was the only board member who opposed delaying payment on the building-project bond debt; she advocated cutting back to half-day kindergarten instead and stated she wouldn't base her household budget on what-ifs.
This year, she was the only board member who wanted to maintain the longstanding Citizens' Budget Advisory Committee, in which volunteers reviewed the administration's budget proposal in great depth through a series of televised meetings. CBAC was replaced with two community forums, where residents and school staff met in small groups to give their views on what should be left out of the budget.
Barber said last week, "It's nice to get more people involved" but she would have liked to have CBAC continue to meet at the same time. "It's helpful to get feedback after they've had that level of detail," she said.
Barber, herself, was a member of the budget review committee since her children were in preschool and she said she found the information she learned from that process invaluable.
Emilio Genzano has been on the school board for two years, because of two separate appointments.
"I joined this to do a job," he said when asked why he would be running in May. "With all I've learned so far, I can be more effective."
Genzano works as the assistant vice president for engineering and construction at Albany Medical Center and is the father of three children. He had run unsuccessfully for the school board in 2001 and 2002 before being appointed in the fall of 2009. The board chose him over seven other men to fill a seat left vacant by the death of long-time board member John Dornbush.
Then Genzano ran in May 2010 to keep his seat but came in fifth in a six-way race for four seats. Simpson came in fourth so he is now serving the one year left in Dornbush's term.
Board member Julie Cuneo then left the board in June, because she was moving out of town with her family. Genzano and two other candidates were interviewed for the post in a televised session in July. Genzano was reappointed to the nine-member board in a 7-to-0 vote.
Genzano said he is most proud of what he has learned. "That includes FOGA," he said of the Friends Of Guilderland Athletics. Last April 13, in the wake of state aid cuts, Genzano had been one of three school board members who advocated reinstating freshman sports. Then, at the next meeting, when the hall was filled with sports boosters, protesting the cuts to freshman and repeat sports, Genzano spoke in favor of sticking to the budget that the majority of the board had supported.
"We have to respect this process…I will look for alternatives," he said then. "This isn't over."
He then headed FOGA, which raised about $60,000 from the community so that all sports were restored for this year.
"People said it couldn't be done, but a group of people got together and found a common goal," said Genzano this week. "I feel it's a model."
Asked if he thought such an approach could be used again for the current proposed cuts, Genzano said, "I'm ready."
He said he is happy with the way the budget process has been opened up this year. "I see more involvement, more feedback," he said.
Asked if he thought the board could keep more programs by not giving raises, Genzano said, "It can be done in negotiations." He added that he couldn't discuss current negotiations with the teachers' union.
Genzano concluded of his goal if elected, "I'd really like to learn more to make the system better."
Allan Simpson, an accountant, first ran for the board in 2009 coming in a close fourth in a five-way race for three seats before winning his seat last year.
Simpson said this week that he has the petition to run for the board in May but hasn't yet solicited any signatures.
He said of serving on the board, "It's a lot of work and a lot of time. With my kids being older, it's hard to fit in. I've had to miss some of their stuff."
The economic downturn has made the job more challenging he said, adding, "It's going to get tougher."
Asked what he was proudest of accomplishing in his year on the board, Simpson said, "I don't think I accomplished a whole lot. There's a lot of learning."
He said he had participated in the board's search for a new superintendent and was pleased with the selection of Marie Wiles. "It's a nice opportunity for her and she brings a lot to the table," he said.
Simpson serves on the board's policy, audit, and business practices committees.
Asked about his goals if he's re-elected, Simpson said, "I'd like to make sure the school district can maintain quality education at a cost taxpayers can afford." He called that "an insurmountable task if not nearly impossible" and noted, "There is no quick fix."
Asked if the board, when negotiating contracts, should withhold raises to preserve programs and jobs, Simpson said, "I'm not negotiating the big contracts. I don't know what the stakes of the negotiations are."
Simpson said he is pleased with the new budget process. "I think it's wonderful people are showing they care," he said. "Last year, when the board took ninth-grade sports out…it was unbelievable the number of people who came out. It's hard for people to understand, you either keep programs and pass the cost on to the taxpayers or you make cuts…That's going to be tough to balance."
Judy Slack is definite about running for a second term on the school board. She gave the same reason for this run that she gave when making her first run three years ago: "It's for the kids," she said.
In her first race, she came in second in a five-way race for three seats.
Slack, who began her career as a high-school English teacher, retired in 2008 after working for 24 years as a teaching assistant at Lynnwood Elementary School. She has three grown children who had varying educational needs, all of which were met at Guilderland, she said.
"It's so hard when you look at all the choices we have to make," Slack said this week of her first term on the board." But, she said, referring to a recent Future City presentation by Farnsworth Middle School students, "That's why I'm doing it. At the bottom of it all are the kids."
Asked what she is most proud of accomplishing in her first term, Slack said, "We're watching a lot slip away but we've been able to keep a lot of things whole."
She went on, "Our current superintendent is a gem. We're working to keep this a district that people will come here for and be proud of."
Slack said the most important issue facing the district now is money. "Everything is influenced by it," she said. "You have to have concern for people who are paying the bills."
Asked if the board, when negotiating contracts, should withhold raises to preserve jobs and programs, Slack said, "We can't do anything about it as board members. We've got the Triborough law so we can't freeze or cut salaries. The only choice we have is cutting staff….Contracts are negotiated and we either approve or disapprove…We vote yes or no."
Asked what she'd like to accomplish if she's re-elected, Slack said, "Looking out for the bullied students and the bullying students…It's been proven that the bullies need as much support as the bullied."

Comments about Joop! Joop Rococo Perfume:
It's me again, the one and only reviewer of Rococo. I wonder why I'm the only one? Maybe because is sooooo good that women are jealous to share it; because it is impossible to find in stores or the internet. Apparently the factory stopped production and I was pleasantly surprised to see it back in stock. I ordered immediately, no questions asked although it's on the expensive side with intl shipping.
After being on the waiting list for 2-3 years, I hope you will have Rococo by Joop in stock permanently.

I'll try to explain...
We have a package which is responsible of ps2 devices : ApplePS2Controller.kext, this package contains three kextfile : ApplePS2keyboard, ApplePS2trackpad and ApplePS2mouse.
the problem we have, we have to reload the good version of package with goods permissions.
The package i have is attached here
so now, we have many solutions:
- change the /etc/rc file which will be executed at every boot.
- unload and reload the kext file.
i don't garantee this solutions works fine, but you must try many times for working
the first solutions (under windows):
Download MacDrive
open the file rc in your osx HD and edit it with texteditor (add
"kextunload /System/Library/Extensions/ApplePS2Controller.kext/Contents/Plugins/ApplePS2Keyboard.kext
kextload /System/Library/Extensions/ApplePS2Controller.kext/Contents/Plugins/ApplePS2Keyboard.kext"
at the end of rc file just before "exit 0")
Save and close.
Reboot and tell me
the second solution (under osx):
delete files .mkext .kextcache (2 files normally) in /System/Library/
copy the package .kext i attached into /System/Library/Extensions (you'll need to authenticate so don't forget to load the virtual keybord;))
load this command in terminal (copy it into a textfile and "copy&paste") YOU WILL NEED A ROOT ACCESS!!!
sudo diskutil repairPermissions /
sudo chmod -R 755 /System/Library/Extensions/ApplePS2Controller.kext
sudo chown -R root:wheel /System/Library/Extensions/ApplePS2Controller.kext
kextload /System/Library/Extensions/ApplePS2Controller.kext
kextcache -k /System/Library/Extensions/
ok, let's try it
and if someone comes here and have a better solution WHICH works ...tell us!!

Dying for Mercy: A Novel of Suspense (Hardcover)
A Novel of Suspense
William Morrow, 9780061286117, 384pp.
Publication Date: July 28, 2009
When death shatters the serenity of the exclusive moneyed enclave of Tuxedo Park, New York, Eliza Blake, cohost of the country's premier morning television show KEY to America, is on the scene. While attending a lavish gala at her friends' newly renovated estate, Pentimento, Eliza's host is found dead—a grotesque suicide that is the first act in a macabre and intricately conceived plan to expose the sins of the past involving some of the town's most revered citizens.
Determined to find out the truth, Eliza and her KEY News colleagues—producer Annabelle Murphy, cameraman B.J. D'Elia, and psychiatrist Margo Gonzalez—discover that Pentimento holds the key. Nestled in the park's sprawling architectural masterpieces, picturesque gardeners' cottages, and lush, rolling landscape, the glorious mansion is actually a giant "puzzle house," filled with ingenious clues hidden in its fireplaces, fountains, and frescoes that lead them from one suspicious locale to another—and, one by one, to the victims of a fiendish killer.
As Pentimento gives up its secrets, it becomes clear that no amount of wealth or privilege will keep the residents of Tuxedo Park safe. But just when Eliza unearths one final surprise, she comes face-to-face with a murderer who believes that some puzzles should never be solved.
Praise For Dying for Mercy: A Novel of Suspense…
"Clark has perfected the suspense novel . . . in classic Christie fashion."
As always, Clark gives the reader a strong trail of red herrings. This is another satisfying look at the behind-the-scenes world of television network news tied around an intriguing puzzle
Clark's latest rivals Christie's best. Her short, to-the-point chapters, lucid prose, numerous suspects and faceless murderer's creepy monologues keep the suspense at its chilliest level — and move the story forward at a brisk clip. One of Clark's — and the genre's — best.
-Associated Press
"smooth . . . Those curious about Tuxedo Park will appreciate the well-researched portrait of the real-life exclusive community."
-Publishers Weekly

TOM WESTON has established an early lead in the Area Championship and he consolidated his position with a double at the Cotswold point-to-point, Andoversford .
But reigning champion Mark Wall, from Coln Rogers, is hot on his heels and will not give up his title without a fight.
Weston's first success came in the Men's Open on the Tim Eades-trained The Magherally Man.
Wall set out to make every post a winning one on Numbercruncher but their five-length advantage at the 15th had been whittled down to just two by the penultimate fence.
The Magherally Man closed the gap on the climb to the final obstacle and clung on grimly to his lead in the home straight.
This win provided a first ever double for
The Eades double was initiated by In The Dock's performance in the Restricted 35 minutes earlier.
Cold Knight moved into contention at the second from home but the favourite's efforts were short-lived as James Nixon produced In The Dock with a well-timed run to secure a narrow lead at the final obstacle.
Weston's second winner was provided by the Seanin McPherson-trained The Winking Prawn in the concluding Maiden. The favourite swept into the lead at the 17th but was followed all the way up the final hill by Sweet Like You.
Weston's mount held a narrow lead at the last, which he clung on to on the flat.
The winner is owned by Stow-on-the-Wold-based Andrew Davis who purchased the seven-year-old at Ascot in the autumn.
First to congratulate connections was previous trainer and Andoversford Clerk of the Course Kim Bailey.
After second place on Numbercruncher Wall steered Scenic Route to victory in the Intermediate.
The complexion of this race changed down the back straight, with Anderson McAuley falling, Squirrel Esquire losing his rider and Star Of Massini being hampered by a loose horse.
Scenic Route was left to make his way home and had little difficulty seeing off the challenges of History Master and Freedom Of Choice over the final two fences.
"He's only small and has a scratchy action and does not go left-handed, but he was won four points for us," said Stanton-based Giles Smyly representing his wife Kim.
"Mark said the loose horse helped him up the final hill and he went on again when challenged."
Cutlass Silver was left clear when Bridlingtonbygones fell at the 16th in the Ladies' Open and he started up the final hill with an eight-length lead, but he could not sustain his effort over the final two fences.
Lion On The Prowl struck the front on the final bend, but he in turn had to pull out all the stops to hold the fast-finishing Skyhawk, with Brize Norton just a couple of lengths away in third.
Two horses lined up for the Member's in which Classic Fly was attempting to win the race for the third successive year.
With their solitary rival Powers Cross departing at the 16th the favourite was left to pick up the prize and provide a first victory for 19-year-old James Seivwright who works for Ablington trainer Peter Mason.
"He has gone skiing so I have come in for the ride," said James.

Last week on June 20, 2009 I had the opportunity to attend the Graduation ceremony of my former classmates and friends finally complete the mission of getting through architecture school. The ceremonies where held at Louis Kahn's Salk Intitute. It was something special as I could see the happiness that filled their eyes. An even though the economy has hit the industry hard the joy of completion is still there. The ceremonies began around 9am and did not end till the late hours of the night. (some are still celebrating)
note: these image were taken from my cell phone - not a good idea
Watching my friends walk has re motivated me to keep pushing forward. With one more year to go and my two beautiful kids waiting for me I know its time to get back to work and kick some butt (my own butt of course). These last three years have not been easy working full time and going to school. Truthfully it has been a pain, difficult, stressful, and of course lots of fun! Going through architecture school can be one of the worst and best experience one can go through in their lives - at least it has been for me.
Architecture school = boot camp for architects - it rocks
very cool... does newschool always have their commencement at the salk? also, is the water channel permanently filled in? or is that some sort of temporary covering for the ceremony? or is there actually water in it? can't really tell in the pictures.
Wow at the Salk building. Ocean view and all.
Yeah it was totally cool, for as long as I have been at Newschool they have been holding them at the Salk Institute, and the water channel has a temporary cover.
Not easy,
I am in the 4+3 program - I entered school working 40 hours a week. I wanted to Drop and kill myself after the FIRST quarter. I thought I had made a big mistake, but I really wanted to do this so I stuck in there. It was the hardest thing for me, especially when finals came around - were I turned into a Zombie (with little or no sleep).The first 2 years I worked anywhere from 35 - 40 hours with way two much STRESS, This last year which was suppose to be my thesis year I stepped away from studio (studio only) so that I can continue to work and provide for my son and my new daughter who was on the way. This last year was kind of weird for me because I worked less hours 30-35 hours (sometimes 40) with not so much stress, but I was kind of lacking motivation, so I did not push my self as hard. I was really more than anything burned out. Another thing my GPA has suffered not a lot but it has - working a lot of hours and going to school will affect your GPA (at least it has for me). If you are concerned about your GPA I would advise you to do what a couple of my friends who just graduated did - not work in your first and second year if possible - load up on classes - then in your final year with only your thesis studio left - get a job working full time.
I really appreciate this information. Your GPA might have suffered, but you were able to provide for your family (congratulations btw) while pursuing your ambitions. I'm impressed and inspired. I might not be in so much debt after all! Actually, my major concern is lacking work experience when I finally graduate at the age of 30 (from MArch1 program) vs. the people who got a degree in undergrad and have been working and licensed for years before I enter the scene. Thanks!
