Why can't I unmount my second hard drive?
I'm having a problem with my secondary hard drive. The problem is even though sdb1 is NOT listed in /etc/fstab and I have NOT explicitly mounted it, Linux insists sdb1 is mounted if I try to run even a read-only e2fsck or a fsck on that partition.
In short, when I type:
e2fsck -nf /dev/sdb1
Warning! /dev/sdb1 is mounted.
umount /dev/sdb1
umount: /dev/sdb1: not mounted
This has been going on since my server host's techs reinstalled the OS on the primary boot drive in mid-August. There seems to be NOTHING I can do from here to unmount that second drive.
Can anyone here tell me why linux reports that /dev/sdb1 cant be unmounted because it isn't mounted; but e2fsck insists it IS mounted? If you can, can you also tell me how to unmount this stubborn device?
What is the path you are on when entering the unmount command?
Try changing to / directory and try your commands again.
try running just the simple mount command, and post that up here. that should give you a list of all the mounted filesystems on your machine.
Here's the output from every relevant command I (or anyone else) has been able to can think of. Do any of them help?
myserver:~# ls -l /dev/sda1
Sorry... somehow I managed to double-post my response.
What happens when you physically disconnect the drive?
I've figured out the cause; but not the solution yet.
Somehow it's a 'grub' thing...
After sleeping on this a few hours, I managed to figure out the reason /dev/sdb1 can't be dismounted is because grub somehow has it specified as the primary boot device. In short, it appears the system is actually taking its boot stuff from the second drive and its data and everything else from the "primary" (first) drive.
I proved this by (just for the helluvit) deliberately trying to unmount sda1 (umount /dev/sda1) while the system was running in single user mode. When it reported the unmount was successful, I KNEW there was something screwy going on. After that, I did a test run of e2fsck in "do-no-harm" mode:
e2fsck -nf /dev/sda1
and discovered Linux did not complain /dev/sda1 was mounted -- even though it was originally the primary boot device in this system. After that test ran and reported no errors, I tried:
e2fsck -p /dev/sda1
Again I got no complaints and the process ran to completion without errors or problems.
On the other hand, when I try to umount /dev/sdb1, umount STILL insists the device isn't mounted but when I try to:
e2fsck -nf /dev/sdb1
it says:
Warning! /dev/sdb1 is mounted.
This 'boot trick' effectively protects the system areas of the sda1 drive from being wiped out accidentally -- which happened on this box back in August (while we were still in sandbox mode) when an overlooked synonym and a mount of sdb1 in a temporary work directory I removed with rm -rf accidentally wiped out BOTH drives at once. :(
Bottom line: I now know the issue is being caused by grub. But even after hours of carefully studying the grub docs and trying to force the boot to occur from sda1 again, I've been unable to figure out how to do that.
Are there any Grub experts around ANYWHERE who can offer some advice? As far as I'm concerned, that program is completely hopeless!
The LQ member saikee is the forum's grub guru.
Search for posts by him, read relevant ones, and see the links in his sig.
If you still cannot fix the problem, perhaps if you send him a polite email with a link to this thread, he'll be able to help.
I am reluctant to offer advice, although I am happy with grub, as I have sometimes messed things up, and needed to boot from a live CD to sort things out. But my server is upstairs, whilst your server is 1500 miles away.
I have not seen saikee around for awhile. Wonder where he is.
In any event, grub is handled from the file menu.lst which should be in /boot/grub. Copy that file here.
Also, what is in the file device.map (if it exists), which is also in /boot/grub ?
Also, both fstab and mtab list sda1 as / but /proc/mounts lists sdb1 as / and also lists sdb1 as /dev/.static/dev. What is in /dev/.static?
[SOLVED!] Grub was the INDEED culprit...
Okay, I figured it out. The way grub was set up on my server it's primary boot device was set as /dev/sdb1 (a.k.a. hd1) in the grub startup menu defaults.
So even though everything ELSE for the system was drawn from /dev/sda1 (e.g. all of the web content) the boot utilities and linux itself were coming from /dev/sdb1. In short, the system portion of sda1 wasn't being used. This seems to have served the DUAL purpose of protecting the primary drive's bootstrap from accidental deletion and ensuring that there was always a good un-modified bootstrap on the system no matter what happened. I guess it might also be a way to protect the main system bootstrap against rootkits, for example.
Here's an example of what those 'AutoMagic' parameters in /boot/grub/menu.lst look like:
Grub's boot parameters can be changed by the admin by going to the system console (or accessing the system via KVM) and waiting for the grub boot options menu to appear (assuming of course that grub was configured during installation to display this menu). The arrow keys can be used there to select the boot method you want to use and THEN the admin can press "e" to edit and change the start-up parameters for that boot method. Once those parameters have been changed if they include the "savedefault" option, the parameters should be saved for the next reboot. However, in our case I had to tinker with it a bit to make sure the new startup changes got saved.
That explains why e2fsck and fsck both detected /dev/sdb1 as "in use". Because they were designed to protect the filesystem, those utilities were written to be smart enough not to be fooled by boot tricks played by grub. However, the Linux mount utilities and unmount utilities ARE fooled by grub's trickery.
I have a hunch this technique may be in some ways unique to the Debian Linux distro. However, the rules and methods described here for grub should probably apply to most other distribtuions as well.
So, there you have it. I hope this technique and what I've learned here eventually helps someone else.
Thanks a bunch for your efforts to help!
The boot drive is set by the BIOS. On startup, BIOS will branch to the specified boot drive and expects to begin executing a bootloader that is in the master boot record. BIOS will fail if there is no bootloader.
If the bootloader is grub, it expects to find more of itself at a specific location on the drive it is booting from - and it knows this location in absolute terms, regardless of filesystem. When you tell grub to install itself, you specify which drive it puts its MBR code onto, and you also specify which drive contains the root filesystem - including the second part of grub.
So, unless you have reinstalled grub on sda, you presently are booting initially from sdb, then transferring control to sda. This works fine, but you'll wind up getting bitten if you don't understand it and at a later point delete /boot/grub from sdb or otherwise rearrange the system.
You would be best off reinstalling grub on sda.
Nonetheless, because I'm a cautious soul, I hadn't done a drive to drive dd backup copying drive sda to drive sdb in the past month because I kept expecting some related-issue to turn up somewhere. I had planned to run my first full backup since 10-14 last night when the proverbial defecation hit the perennial ventilation in a completely unrelated area.
While researching the underlying cause of that new issue here, I spotted your message. The trouble is, I'm not sure exactly what you're telling me. Here's the way I interpreted your reply and the questions it raises in my mind.
Here's what I THINK you said...
1. I had basically concluded our server had been rebooting from sdb since the webhost rebuilt the drives in mid-August. I needed it
to boot from sda again. I thought I fixed that by doing what I did last month but I gather you're telling me I did NOT fix it. Did I get that right?
2. Where I lost you was in the remarks about the boot drive being set in the BIOS. I think that implies a hardware setup change would need to occur to change which drive we're booting from. Is that right?
If so, I'm not sure I can convince my server host's techs to make such a change because under their rules that would be beyond the scope of the limited support they're willing to provide.
3. That means I also need to ask: Is this BIOS setup change one I can make from here with KVM access or does it require hands on at the server's console which is 1,500 miles away from me? If hands-on is required I can't do that.
4. I think you're also saying you assume there's no grub boot-up capability installed on sda and that must be corrected by installing grub on sda before I change the bios settings to boot from sda. Is that understanding also correct?
5. If I got #3 and 4 right, do I need handson-server console access to install grub on sda? If so, that's impossible.
At that point, my last 3 questions are:
6. Is there some remote way to CHECK to see if all required parts of grub are installed on sda?
7. Is it possible for me to COPY all required parts of grub from drive sdb to sda or does grub need to be installed from some sort of setup disk?
8. Is there a procedure or HowTo that you know of somewhere that describes how to install (or reinstall) grub? The docs for this program aren't the worst I've ever seen, but I'd definitely put them in 2nd or 3rd place! This system did at one time boot from sda before an errant rm -f command destroyed both drives in a mushroom cloud. :(
Thanks very much for your feedback, jiml8. I sincerely appreciate it! I hope I've understood you correctly and that you'll take a minute to answer these questions too.
Thanks VERY much!

In one of the most important settlements in this year's negotiating calendar, the United Steel Workers last week won a contract that will raise labor costs of the nation's ten biggest steel firms 40% over the next three years. The pact dims any hope that the moderation that marked labor agreements last year and kept some brake on inflation will continue. It represents a high price for labor peace: bargaining was conducted under a year-old experimental pact that prohibits the union from striking, gives it a guaranteed minimum increase and the right to bargain for more, and pledges...

Facebook makes you go bald, or something like that
Ginza HS Clinic recently released a bit of curious survey that tried to establish a link between going bald and SNS. Some of you might remember a similarly dodgy survey from them (and headline from me!) from a couple of months back.
During the month of April 2013 400 male members of the Rakutan Research online monitor group completed a private internet-based questionnaire. The sample consisted of 200 men who self-identified as going bald and 200 who had a full head of hair. Furthermore, 20.0% of each group were in their twenties, 20.0% in their thirties, 20.0% in their forties, 20.0% in their fifties, and 20.0% in their sixties.
Talking of slapheads, not surprisingly there is a Facebook group for photos of hot bald men. There is also this bald women group too; Google tells me the Arabic means "Shaved head women Salaat". Coincidentally, the Japanese word "Salatto" means "sleek, smooth", just like after a shaved head…

New shelling from Syria sees Turkey retaliate
Turkey has hit back at Syria after a fresh bombardment of shelling across the border onto its territory, within 24 hours of the UN condemning the deadly attacks.
Meanwhile Syria has announced that four Turks were killed in fighting at the heart of Aleppo, as they were part of a convoy of ' terrorists' involved in the violence in the city.
Officials in Turkey believe that pro-government forces are behind Saturday morning's attack and not the rebels which are fighting to remove president Bashar al-Assad.
Retaliatory fire began after a mortar round struck the Hatay province in Turkey, which has a long border with Syria.
The provincial governor's office said: 'A mortar round struck today [Saturday] at 7:00 am [0400 GMT] about 50 metres [yards] inside Turkish territory in an open space about 700 metres from the village of Guvecci and about 300 metres from a police station.'
No casualties have been reported, but the incident comes after the UN Security Council has condemned such cross-border shelling.
Late on Thursday five people were killed in an attack from the Syrian side of the border further east in the Sanliurfa province.
Among the dead were a mother and her three children.

You'll have your answer by the time you hit 50. Observe each and pick the one you like.

Paladin - More reliable, effective against single enemies/bosses, can heal others with Cure if the healer needs help, low damage output, average HP for a tank.
Warrior - Effective against multiple enemies, massive HP, can heal self, has a fairly good damage output, gets hurt more and thus requires more attention by self and healers, not as versatile as Paladin, requires good and updated gear to be on par most the time.
They both can tank just as good. Their effectiveness differs by the player, so level them both to 20 or something first.

They can only self heal. They also have a buff that when stacks improves healing of other classes. I don't know if paladin can heal?

tl'dr Pld's mitigation is based on how much damage they're taking, so it scales with the harder the mob is hitting, or the more mobs that are attacking War's mitigation is based on self healing, which does not scale. So, the tougher the mob/more things attacking, the worse a War gets compared to Pld.
Paladins at a base level take hits a fair bit better than Wars, due to having a Shield to partially block attacks damage, and Shield Oath giving a 25% reduction in damage taken. In exchange, War gets 20% more HP from Defiance.
Max HP in MMO's is frequently less helpful than mitigation, sometimes even worthless to gear for. It's not quite so bad in FFXIV, as it increase health regen per tick, amount absorbed by Stoneskin, and some of War's self healing. Still, it's going to be significantly less useful than the damage reduction from Pld over time, and no at best the same at resisting spike damage.
As far as active mitigation, Pld's get 3 CD's to reduce damage taken, one to increase healing received, and one to prevent being critted for a time. While they don't get full value with Shield Oath's perma damage down, combined they still make the Pld very solid when up, and give the Healers great value per heal.
War has only one CD to reduce damage, the weakest one that Pld also get. It also gets two heal CD's, and Bloodbath, which acts as a mild regen effect while its up. They also get Pld's ability to increase healing recieved. Their biggiest mitigation comes from Inner Beast, which generally is good for a 15-20% hp cure. It can be used every 20 seconds or so if needed, though generally is saved right after a 'spike' attack from a boss. It also has a 60 sec CD to instantly reuse it if necessary.
The big difference between the combined Active and Passive mitigation's is that Pld's mitigation all scales with incoming damage. The bigger the mob, or the more things attacking it, the more the Pld's mitigation will kick in.
The War's damage reduction does not scale with mob, as its tied to his own damage. No matter if that mob bursts for 2k or 4k, the War's self heals will still hit for around 1100. So, the easier the mob, the better a tank the War gets, eventually reaching a point where he essentially takes no damage, which the Pld will generally never get to in a level appropriate fight. An example is the Chimera in Cutter's Cry, a War can go through that with barely more than Regen, as the incoming damage is lower than his static self heals.
So, with Pld scaling Mitigation getting better with tougher mobs, and War's static mitigation remaining the same no matter what, from a pure damage mitigation viewpoint, Pld would generally be the preferred tank for harder content. As right now, most 8 man stuff hits a good deal harder than 4 man stuff, generally a Pld will excel in the former, while a War is very stout in the latter.
The other side of tanking is Aggro, which a War is a good bit better than a Pld. Aggro doesn't give bonus points for keeping everyone else below 20% on the hate bar though, as long as the tank is higher, its enough. Generally, on a single target, the only thing that would pull hate from a Pld is a War, so Pld does fine there.
It has some difficulty in holding Adds for long periods of time if the healer has to also be healing damage in that time, but that's about the only time it comes up. War has an easier time, but has to trade its active mitigation in for AoE hate in those situations, making it even less equipped to deal with all the things attacking it now.
PSN ID: Teioh_White - anyone feel free to add me at anytime.
Warriors have a skill that heals them based on a percentage of damage done... IIRC, 20% of dmg is converted to HP.

Documentation explaining the new features is available in the docs online: http://initd.org/psycopg/docs/connection.html#connection.set_transaction The code is merged into my devel branch. Shall we resume the old tradition of adding features in "3rd digit releases" and have the library released as 2.4.2? Backward compatibility should be entirely preserved. Before releasing though I want to try to fix two issues: the multithread problem reported a few days ago (ticket #55) and possibly try to make life easier into virtualenv: even if the setup.py has been patched to avoid building mx support when the library can't be imported (but the includes are there), there is still some struggling about the matter [1] [2]. I think mx support should be optional even if built: at import time, if mx.DateTime is not found, psycopg should simply avoid registering mx adapters/typecasters and keep going on with stdlib's datetime objects. -- Daniele [1] https://github.com/dvarrazzo/psycopg/commit/af424821b70299704449337904d3ab7fb1b40751 [2] https://twitter.com/#!/mike360/statuses/75295024346177537

Correct to an extent Same goes for vista with UAC (user Account Control) Elevation to Admin privs.Hence run limited user account one must enter password for malware that require admin privs but Keep in mind there is Malware and the like the doesn't require elevated levels Hence Unix base Linux/macs OS or windows can be infected.No OS is totally secure and it is vital to keep a well patched OS updates and all application example Itunes windows media java script and on and on and to close the backdoor so to speak. Unix base Linux or Mac,yes there is much fewer malware/trojans then windows mostly due to market share IMO. No such thing as a totally secure OS or any Security product for that matter.Many scanner miss or produce FP (False positive)which can be more catastrophic then a virus in its self. Send me a malware Sample I will show you a antivirus program that will miss.Virtualization is the most effective way keep thing off that are unwanted.Also Hips (Host Intrusion Protection)are excellent way to keep excutables in check.Example Default Deny all excutables nothing runs with out users knowledge.

Katy Perry's sophomore effort, Teenage Dream, is at times like a message in a bottle to the Golden Coast, and other times a love letter to days begone as an 80s mall punk in neon spanx.
The best thing about the album is that it is so damn hooky. (The lead-out smash "California Gurls" being the biggest culprit.) And while Katy's sexual advances toward boy crushes often come off as forward as a two-dolla hooker, ( See "Peacock" to have those blanks filled in) she is most times endearing (See "Teenage Dream" or "Not Like the Movies"), thanks to a hefty dose of electro-inflected production from the Ke$ha-lite geniuses, Dr. Luke and Max Martin.
Throughout the album, Perry thrashes her side ponytail about to the pulsing beats and melodies like she just snorted a vat of confectioner's sugar.
Perry has never sounded sweeter, more charming, sassier or more fun. When interviewed about the album's ambitions by MTV, Perry said she just "followed her gut."
Perry's gut has allowed her to create the ultimate summer soundtrack, fueled by all the things that bring us back to our bittersweet youth, including referencing to melting popsicles, fireworks, and building forts out of bed sheets.
The feel of Dream reminds me of the time my junior year of high school that I snuck out the house late at night to drink poorly mixed homemade margaritas and drag race in the nearest White Castle parking lot.
All of this and then making it home in time to fall asleep in homeroom at 7 a.m. the next day.
It's this kind of music that makes you want to be young forever.
And Perry's image, which has always been effervescently youthful, adds to the saccharine quality of the tunes. Remember when pop music used to make you feel that way? Like you could blow bubbles in the bank and leave your house skipping to work on days of sunshine?
All of this isn't to say that the album is somehow void of meat. Throughout the album are sprinkles of darkness that might reflect the somber stages of teenage development. It is also through this that, ironically, Perry exhibits growth both as an artist and as a human being. Her debut, "One of the Boys" had a similar kind of spunk to it, but the lyrics lacked any depth beyond calling would-be hipster suitors gay and kissing girls (and/or mannequins) for attention.
"Not Like the Movies" finds our heroine pounding her fists on the floor about why love is never, well, like the movies. "If it's not like the movies, then that's how it should be," she croons in the weepy chorus.
"Pearl" is about a woman who used to rule the world and lost her power to the turbulent relationships in her life. She sings it like she was the girl who never got picked to play volleyball with the cool kids in P.E.
Through these revealing nuggets of truth, one can sense that while Perry splashes in her warm, wet and wild fountain of youth, she realizes such youth is not always the dream we imagine it to be. It's a lot like the picture of real life, it's just that Perry chooses wisely – in an age of destruction and hopelessness – to sugarcoat it.

Hailey-Hailey Disease
National Organization for Rare Disorders, Inc.
It is possible that the main title of the report Hailey-Hailey Disease is not the name you expected.
General Discussion
Hailey-Hailey disease is a rare genetic disorder that is characterized by blisters and erosions most often affecting the neck, armpits, skin folds and genitals. The lesions may come and go and usually heal without scarring. Sunlight, heat, sweating and friction often aggravate the disorder. The symptoms of Hailey-Hailey disease occur because of the failure of skin cells to stick together resulting in the breakdown of affected skin layers. Hailey-Hailey disease occurs due to a mutation in a specific gene that creates a protein that is essential for the proper health of skin. The disorder becomes apparent after puberty, usually by the third or fourth decade, but symptoms can develop at any age.
Hailey-Hailey disease is also known as familial benign pemphigus, which has created significant confusion in the medical literature. Pemphigus is a general term for a group of rare autoimmune blistering skin disorders. The symptoms and skin damage of pemphigus and Hailey-Hailey disease are similar. However, pemphigus is an autoimmune disorder, a disorder that occurs when the body's own immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissue. Hailey-Hailey disease is not an autoimmune disorder and there are no autoantibodies. Hailey-Hailey disease is a distinct genetic disorder caused by a gene mutation.

For the most part, it can be fun to read and writev about the history of radio and some of the interestingvfacts about how radio works. Sometimes, however, the darker side of radio's past looms large. Such is the case of the story of Edwin Howard Armstrong. Armstrong's innovative mind led him to three of the most significant inventions in the history of radio and electronics. It also led him into a fight he just couldnt win. Here's a brief account of his story.
While Lee De Forest was working on his Audion at AT&T, Armstrong, then a young undergraduate at Columbia University in New York, was just about to make his first impact on the future of electronics. In 1912, during his third year at Columbia, Armstrong discovered a way to improve the reception qualities of De Forest's Audion: a regenerative circuit. By feeding a radio transmission's waves back through the Audion tube, Armstrong boosted his radio's reception, and in so doing, created the first radio amplifier. Armstrong also noticed that if he repeatedly cycled the electromagnetic waves (of the radio signal) through the tube, the tube itself would begin to act as a transmitter. With this breakthrough, radio stations would no longer have to rely on large, expensive generators for their transmitters. Armstrong had entered the annals of radio history.
The success of young Armstrong's regenerative circuit prompted De Forest to claim that he had invented it himself. De Forest pushed his case through the U.S. Patent Office, and lost. But he was persistent, and eventually maneuvered his case against Armstrong through federal courts and finally to the U. S. Supreme Court. There, in a decision that still upsets historians, scientists and radio engineers alike, a U.S. Supreme Court Judge apparently misunderstood the case before him, and actually ruled in favor of De Forest.
Undeterred by the Court's decision, Armstrong kept working and inventing. During World War I, Armstrong followed up his discovery of the regenerative circuit, with the superheterodyne receiver. That's quite a mouthful. In simple terms, the superheterodyne receiver is the mechanism in a radio that lets you choose between stations –– the radio tuner. Another success for Armstrong, and another entry into the annals of radio history. His third significant invention, however, would ultimately lead to his demise –– as it pit a single man against a very determined corporation, RCA.
In 1934, Armstrong succeeded in something his contemporary scientists had dismissed as outright impossible. He'd managed to send a static-free signal on the Frequency Modulation –– Armstrong had invented FM radio. RCA was not happy. In the years before Armstrong's invention of FM, RCA had gone out of its way to become the major force in U.S. radio. They'd bought the radio patents from Westinghouse and AT&T, and were about to make a serious commitment to Television. The advent of a new, static-free form of radio with higher fidelity signaled a technology RCA just wasn't interested in grooming for the future. RCA would rather have stuck to TV and AM.
For the next several years, and into Armstrong's untimely, and sad demise, RCA put up obstacles to his invention of FM and his ability to reap any financial rewards from it. RCA encouraged the FCC to block Armstrong's experiments with FM; they contested his patents with the U.S. Patent Office, and they refused to work with him on expanding FM technology. All the while, RCA started putting FM receivers into their television sets –– using Armstrong's invention, but refusing to acknowledge his role.
The attorney fees of fighting RCA and the cost of maintaining his own lab at Columbia eventually bankrupted Armstrong. Finally, overwhelmed by the shadows cast over his own life as an inventor and as a troubled husband, Armstrong walked out of his thirteenth story window in February, 1954. By then, FM had surpassed AM, and RCA had become an ultimate powerhouse in the electronics industry. RCA eventually paid Armstrong's wife, Marion, a settlement of just over a million dollars. And so one of the more somber threads of radio history came to an end.

Mavs fail to handle adversity again, lose third straight to fall to 7-9
CHICAGO — The misery-loves-company tour is over for the Mavericks, who are tough to top these days in the misery department.
They were run out of the gym by the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday night, 101-78. The Bulls played without their best player, Derrick Rose, who is recovering from knee surgery.
This came a night after they lost to Philadelphia without center Andrew Bynum, which came after losing to the Los Angeles Lakers without Steve Nash.
And, of course, the Mavericks are playing without Dirk Nowitzki.
Of all those teams who are trying to stay afloat without their stars, the Mavericks are reeling most of all.
Debilitating injuries are reshaping the NBA during the first month of the season, and the Mavericks and Bulls were proof of it. The Bulls got the win to pull back to .500 for the season.
The Mavericks? They fell to 7-9 and what that means is that, since the Mavericks became playoff regulars back in 2001, this is the latest in any season that they have been under .500.
They were 7-8 in Rick Carlisle's first season, but recovered to finish 50-32.
The Mavericks have lost three in a row and face a difficult stretch coming up with only two of their next eight games at home.
Their biggest problem lately has been allowing adversity to break their will.
"It's happened," Carlisle said when asked if a lack of fortitude tends to snowball for this team.
Against the Bulls, they wanted to fix problems. Instead, they showed the same glaring weakness that have hurt them throughout the first 16 games of the season — rebounding and defense — and also ran into new difficulties trying to make shots.
The Mavericks were 11-of-42 from the field in the second and third quarters. They never got within sniffing distance of the Bulls after getting outscored 38-11 during a stretch bridging the first and second quarters.
It was an offensive meltdown against the defensive-minded Bulls. O.J. Mayo was held to four points, the first time all season he's been below 12.

Three highly recommended ice falls. The first and most likely to form at (least the top two grade III pitches) is Virgin Falls. When it is in condition it is the easily seen from the A4061, as the wide ribbon of ice flowing off of the hill side above Blaencwm. The other two falls were known to take a long time to form even in the Eighties when conditions were far more favorable.
North West of Treherbert. Turn off the A4061 onto the B4522 follow road to Blane Cwm and turn right just before you enter Blanecwm. Park at the forestry car park. Note that road signs are somewhat spartan after you turn off of the A4061.
Leave the car park by the path heading up the hill through the edge of the forest at the entrance to the car park. Continue up until you get to a split in the path. To get to virgin falls take the left hand turning which descends a little, cross the first foot bridge at the second foot bridge turn off of the path and follow the stream up to the base of the fall. To get to the other climbs follow the original path straight up.

ABC's Yunji de Nies reports from Washington:
There's been a lot of debate over just how many people attended the 912 March in Washington on Saturday. On Friday, organizers from Freedom Works, the group that planned the event, told ABC News that they were permitted for 3000 people, but that 30,000 had signed up via their website.
Then late Friday night, a memo from Doug Thornel, an aide to Congressman Chris Van Hollen (D-MD), began making its way across the web. The memo warned that the rally could be much bigger than some had anticipated. It read, "It looks like Saturday's event is going to be a huge gathering, estimates ranging from hundreds of thousands to 2 million people." Thornel cited several blogs including mediamatters.org, NYTimes.com, GOPExiles.com and 912dc.org.
The next morning, I arrived on the Mall, near the Capitol steps, for a Weekend Good Morning America report about the day ahead. At 7am, there were very few people there and I reported than tens of thousands were expected. The rally was to begin about a mile away at Freedom Plaza. I made my way there and met up with our camera crew and producer. The crowd was thick around 9am, and as the morning progressed, grew substantially. I tweeted about what I was seeing, and maintained throughout that I would not rely on my own eyeball estimate, but instead defer to DC officials for a head count.
The problem is that Park Police and Capitol Police do not release such estimates and have not for years. The reasoning is that those giving out those numbers became too political. Whether on the right or the left, organizers repeatedly accused officials of underestimating the crowds. The only official agency to do so that day was DC police, which tweeted (under the handle @dcfireems) at 11:43am "UPDATE - several people treated for injury and illness on the Mall nothing extraordinary unofficial crowds 60,000-75,000 UNOFFICIAL." We called the agency, which confirmed those numbers.
Later that afternoon, Matt Kibbe, the President of Freedom Works, took the stage and declared that ABC News was reporting that between one and 1.5 million people were on the Mall. By any standard, millions would be impossible to confuse with tens of thousands. Remember that officials estimate 1.8 million attended President Barack Obama's inauguration on January 20th, and there was barely any room to stand. I walked the length of Pennsylvania Avenue the marchers, and was able to move easily through the crowd. Though it would be obvious to anyone on the Mall at that time that there was no way there were a million people there, with Kibbe's announcement, the Internet lit up. Blogs and tweets began citing the number, inflating it to as many as two million.
We at ABC News were baffled. Where were these numbers coming from? We checked with all reporters on the ground, and with all platforms (broadcast, radio, dot.com) but everyone had been sticking to reporting in the "tens of thousands." We contacted Freedom Works, which took nearly 24 hours to correct their mistake, but did so in this statement, from Kibbe himself:
"From the stage I cited ABC news estimating the crowd at the March on Washington at 1.5 million. I also said "with all due respect to our friends in mainstream media, we need our own independent head count. Trust but verify." With a dead IPhone, I had been shown tweets from a number of different folks behind the stage citing the ABC estimate. They didn't say it. I regret misrepresenting the network, as their coverage that day was fair and honest."
In the same statement, Kibbe writes, "The crowd was HUGE. Any reporter that claims thousands, or even tens of thousands of attendees was either not there or was willfully misreporting the significance of the event."
By focusing so much on the numbers, I think he's right, many are missing the significance of the event. On Sunday morning, ABC's chief political correspondent, George Stephanopoulos said, "You can't sneeze at tens of thousands of people coming out on a Saturday afternoon to March on the Capitol. That is significant. Even if it represents a minority, it can show a strongly motivated minority."

WITHDRAWN: Performance of Methods to Assess Heterogeneity in Treatment Effect
Diane Richardson, VA Center for Health Equity Research and Promotion
Keywords: comparative effectiveness, heterogeneity in treatment effect, statistical learning
BACKGROUND In comparative effectiveness research, parametric regression models are the most commonly used methods for estimating average treatment effects. These analyses rely upon assumptions that may not be valid for the estimation of treatment heterogeneity even in randomized studies, including correct specification of the parametric statistical model. With the increasing use of administrative and electronic medical record databases from clinically diverse populations for comparative effectiveness studies, this heterogeneity provides valuable information and a challenge to develop and evaluate methods that can better inform patient-centered decisions of optimal treatment. Machine-learning approaches that do not rely upon the assumptions of parametric regression models may provide improved estimates of heterogeneous comparative effects, compared to standard methods. OBJECTIVE The objective of this work is to compare the performance of conventional parametric regression modeling with targeted learning for the evaluation of treatment heterogeneity in the comparative effectiveness setting. We estimate power to detect heterogeneity in treatment effect (HTE), and bias in the resulting estimates of HTE, using multivariable risk stratification and interaction-term subgroup approaches with both methods. METHODS We performed a series of Monte Carlo simulations to examine realistic settings based on recent comparative effectiveness studies: a randomized controlled trial comparing two non-pharmacologic interventions to improve diabetes control; a regional retrospective study of disparities in joint replacement outcomes, and a study of gender and homelessness risk. In each setting, we imposed varying degrees of treatment heterogeneity, applied conventional and statistical learning approaches, and then assessed power and bias in estimation of HTE. We will present representative results from these settings to demonstrate the performance of parametric regression and statistical learning approaches.

Fanfare Contributor Bio
Maria Nockin
I was born into a family of classical-music enthusiasts in New York City. Since both of my parents played piano and my grandfather was a violinist, I studied piano and violin from an early age. I remember my first opera, Un ballo in maschera, which I saw when I was only five years old because my babysitter canceled at the last minute. My parents bought another seat and started me off as an operagoer! From ages eight to 12, I sang and recited poetry on a radio program called The Peggy Tucker Children's Hour, so I started to take singing lessons, which I continued long after I had become too old for that show.
After high school, I attended evening classes at Fordham University and worked for the Metropolitan Opera Guild during the day. That job made it easy for me to attend the opera whenever I had free time, so I was frequently present at operas and concerts and I made a great many friends who enjoyed music as much as I did. Later, I received my bachelor's degree and, a bit later, my master's degree from Fordham. After that, I began to teach English as a second language in a Brooklyn high school.
Since I was free in summer, I started to travel to summer festivals in Europe. I spent considerable time at the Salzburg Festival, where I could hear every kind of classical music in existence. While I was there I worked as a personal assistant to the coloratura soprano Rita Streich. Sometimes I took the train to Bayreuth or to another music festival where I could resume my acquaintance with some of the singers I knew from working at the Met.
Years later I moved to Long Island, where I taught English and theater arts in the Hauppauge and Smithtown schools. I was also the soprano soloist at a local cathedral. Eventually, I got tired of the New York winters and retired to Arizona. Now I live on a piece of beautiful desert land located between Casa Grande and Gila Bend. It's a lovely place to write and paint, but I still spend much of my time traveling to musical events in Arizona, California, and New Mexico.
When I first moved out West, I began to conduct interviews and write background articles in English for a Mexican publication, which translated them. That, again, brought me in contact with performing artists. Now, I write for a number of classical-music publications, some of which translate my work, and I continue to enjoy the personalities of the myriad musicians whose artistry graces our era in classical music.

And while the Eels failed to score in the ensuing set, the tackle-one turnover from the Sharks was all that Hayne needed to fire a bullet for rampaging winger Semi Radradra to score his 11th try of the season and earn the early 4-0 lead.Cronulla responded in almost identical fashion in the ninth minute, with fullback Michael Gordon chiming in on a left side shift that gave winger Sosaia Feki a saloon passage to the tryline.And when second-rower Wade Graham put his hand up – or feet, rather – for a plane ticket to Brazil next month with a classy first touch off a Robson dink to touch down nine minutes later, the Sharks looked like handing the Eels their first loss at home this year.But then came a jaw-dropping 10-minute period where the home side fired three straight tries past a stunned Sharks defence.The first was a slick 40m movement that started and finished with Hayne in the 28th minute. The likely Blues No. 1 put left centre Willie Tonga away near halfway, before backing up and stepping three defenders on his way to the tryline for a four-pointer trailing only Greg Inglis' superhuman effort for try of the year honours.The second was all Sandow, with the once-troubled halfback slipping a trademark chip for himself that wrong-footed Gordon and bounced perfectly for the Eels No. 7.And after converting his own try, the former Rabbitoh then completed the first half with a 40-20 that ended – after two quick-taps that were pulled back by the referees – in Sandow popping a long ball for Sio to score in the right corner and earning a 22-12 lead at the break.The home side continued where it left off in the second half, with Hayne creating space for Hopoate to finish off a simple right side shift in the 49th.Graham bombed a chance to nab his second when he lost the ball over the line in the 55th, but the game tensed up when Sharks skipper Paul Gallen bumped off three defenders and popped it up for Isaac De Gois to reduce the deficit to 10 points.Cronulla looked like cramping Parramatta's lead further when they attacked the Eels line in the 63rd minute, but Gordon's pass was picked off by Willie Tonga, who found enough legs to complete the runaway 80m try. Sandow added the extras and restored the three-try lead.But still the visitors wouldn't go away and when Luke Lewis hit Gordon with a 68th minute inside pass to put the fullback through untouched, the Eels were again made to earn their win.Fittingly, it was their match-winning duo of Sandow and Hayne who came to the fore.Two tackles after slicing through the Sharks defence, Sandow put up a crossfield kick that Hopoate pulled down and passed to Sio – all in one motion – for a response in the 72nd.Then Hayne completed the night with a runaway 70m try off a Sharks mistake four minutes later, only to be sin-binned in the final minute for a professional foul.Sharks second-rower Anthony Tupou was put on report for a head slam on Eels backrower Manu Ma'u.Parramatta Eels 42 (Sio 2, Hayne 2, Radradra, Sandow, Hopoate, Tonga tries; Sandow 5 goals) defeated Cronulla Sharks 24 (Feki, Graham, De Gois, Gordon tries; Gordon 4 goals).

I have a client that has the Events Calendar installed and they intermittently encounter the following error when they go to create a new event:
"cant add children to node"
They do not even get to enter the event name, Silverstripe just does not create it (but this only happens occasionally).
They are using IE (not sure what version) and I can not replicate the error for myself. Does anyone know what this error means and where I might go to fix it?

Sam Houston State rips UIW
Updated 12:11 am, Sunday, September 9, 2012
Tim Flanders gave Sam Houston State the lead for good late in the first quarter, and he ran for 120 yards and two scores to become the school's career rushing leader in a 54-7 victory over Incarnate Word on Saturday in Huntsville.
The Southland Conference's Player of the Year in 2011 now has 2,709 yards, breaking the record of 2,688 held by Charles Harris (1991-94).
The Cardinals (1-1) took the lead 7-6 after Zach Rhodes' 18-yard screen pass to Trent Rios with 5:13 remaining in the first quarter. That capped a short drive that started with Chavis Barron's interception.
Sports Channel
The Cardinals were stifled on offense as the Bearkats held them to minus-46 rushing yards on 20 attempts. Rhodes was 16 of 27 for 125 yards.
Sam Houston's Brian Bell completed 12 of 19 passes for 157 yards.
North Texas 34, Texas Southern 7: Brandin Byrd ran 24 times for 142 yards and two TDs to help North Texas defeat visiting in-state rival Texas Southern in Denton.
North Texas (1-1) had 497 total yards of offense against the Tigers (1-1), 352 of which came on the ground.
Louisiana Tech 56, Houston 49: In a game that featured almost 1,300 yards of total offense from both teams, the Bulldogs (1-0) led 49-27 early in the fourth quarter and held off a 22-point rally by the host Cougars (0-2). Sophomore quarterback David Piland was 53 of 77 for 580 yards and four touchdowns.

GWEN IFILL: This was a day of medals and milestones for U.S. athletes at the London Olympics.
We take a look now at some of what went on, including marquee results from the competition.
Spoiler alert: If you don't want to know the results just yet, you might want to tune out for a moment.
Gray skies and puddles didn't keep the crowds away from day four of competition at London's Olympic Park. After some early disappointment, today proved to be with a good one for U.S. fans. The women's gymnastics team lived up to expectations, winning its first team gold since 1996 and beating the Russians handily.
And with two trips to the medal podium today, American swimmer Michael Phelps became the most decorated Olympian of all time. He's now won 19 medals overall, 15 gold, two silvers and two bronze. Also in the pool, fellow U.S. swimmer Allison Schmitt won the women's 200-meter freestyle, defeating teammate Missy Franklin.
The Colorado high school senior Franklin scored her first gold medal last night in the 100-meter backstroke.
MISSY FRANKLIN, Olympic Gold Medal winner: I am so happy. I knew that tonight was definitely going to be difficult with that double, but I had a blast with it. It was so much fun. It was definitely an experience, and I couldn't be happier.
GWEN IFILL: American Ryan Lochte failed to medal Monday, placing fourth in the 200-meter freestyle, although he was also part of today's winning relay.
And questions were raised over the performance of Chinese swimmer Ye Shiwen, who powered to a world record in the 400-meter individual medley on Saturday night. But the win was questioned by an American coach not part of the U.S. delegation, who told the Guardian newspaper he found the win disturbing and unbelievable.
The communications director for the International Olympic Committee defended Ye today, saying any allegations of doping were unfounded.
MARK ADAMS, communications director, International Olympic Committee: It is inevitably a sad result of the fact that there are people who dope and who cheat. But I equally think it's very sad if we can't applaud a great performance. Let's always give the benefit of the doubt to the athletes.
GWEN IFILL: Fellow athletes also came to her defense.
NICK GREEN, Australian Team Chief of Mission: Let's not speculate on what's going on. The athletes haven't produced any positive samples, and the swimming…
WOMAN: They're doing something like 5,000 tests.
NICK GREEN: …And they're doing a lot of testing. And they're swimming very fast. Let's give credit that their training is producing the results.
GWEN IFILL: Ye won a second gold medal today in the women's 200-meter individual medley.
Another brewing controversy, how NBC is covering these Games and when. Some frustrated Olympic fans have taken to the social media site Twitter to complain about delayed or incomplete programming. The hashtag? #NBCfail.á

HP OpenVMS Systemsask the wizard
The Question is:
Is UCX (v4.2) still available for VAX v6.2? Also, is UCX (v5.0) still available for Alpha v7.1? And if not, what version of UCX is available, and what are the minimum system requirements? Note: We have legacy, mission-critical systems that cannot have OpenVMS upgraded and we are desiring a TCP/IP interface with them. We believe that UCX is our solution do you have any other suggestions?
The Answer is :
You can specifically request older releases when ordering kits. You will want to request V4.2 with ECO for OpenVMS V6.* and V7.0, and you will want V5.0A with ECO (or later) for OpenVMS V7.1 and later.

Guerlain Gipsy Le Rouge G de Guerlain Lipstick Review, Photos, Swatches, Lip Swatches
Guerlain Gipsy Le Rouge G de Guerlain Lipstick ($45.00 for 0.12 oz.) is like a summer orange-based coral. It has just the slightest hint of pinkness to it to keep it from being overwhelmingly orange, but it still packs quite an orange punch. When I saw it in the tube, I wasn't sure it would work, since it seems so orange-tastic, but on lips, it's more subdued and wearable.
It's like an orange-coral base color with orange-copper shimmer. It applies opaque in about one layer or so, and it wears well through the day (about four or five hours of wear-time). Like all Rouge Gs, the shimmer is fantastic — subtle, soft, but utterly dazzling. I think it's ruby dust or something fancy like that, but it's lovely. Personally, I'd love it if there was more pinkk to it, to make it more of a true coral, since orange and I don't always get along well!
- Product: 28/30
- Value: 7/10
- Ease of Use: 4/5
- Packaging: 4/5
Recommendation: Not my first choice in the Rouge G shade line-up, but if you like orange-based lipsticks, this shade may be more up your alley than mine.
Availability: Nordstrom

This guy's work just blows my freakin' mind. 'This is the third animal tattoo that I have done on (friend) Jinxi. Although it looks like a rooster its actually a Black Cochin Chicken. This is on the part of her leg that is dedicated to animals... Cochins are known for their sweet personalities and endering mothering qualities. They became famous in the 1800s when this Chinese breed was given as a gift to Queen Victoria of England, who absolutely adored them.' Mike DeVries

Bumble and bumble Creme de Coco Shampoo Reviews
Pricey but amazingLet me be clear, I am in love with this shampoo and the matching conditioner. I love the smell, I love the lather it produces, and I love how shiny and healthy my normally unruly mop is after using this. I just cannot justify the price enough to make it my regular shampoo. After I get money for my birthday or something, I would gladly splurge on this, but as a starving student, I can't afford to use it consistently. — 9 years, 6 months agopickle88 | 49 reviews

TSMC posts record sales in August with revenue of NT$49.497 billion
The China Post news staff Tuesday, September 11, 2012, 2:56 pm TWN
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC) yesterday posted record sales again in August, where the firm saw consolidated revenue of NT$49.497 billion, a rise of 2 percent month-on-month.
TSMC also predicted third quarter sales would be higher than what it had originally estimated.
The previous record the firm made was in July, in which the company had sales of NT$48.525 billion. Then, with strong demand from clients, the world's largest contract chip-maker again set records in August by reporting sales of NT$49.497 billion, a rise of 2 percent from July.
The firm had originally estimated sales for the July-September period would be between NT$136 billion and NT$138 billion, a rise of seven percent from the second quarter.
With a combined sales total of NT$98.022 billion in July and August alone, sales for the third quarter would exceed the firm's target, said Ho Li-mei, TSMC's chief finance officer.
Ho attributed the August sales increase to rush orders from clients and higher-than-expected revenue from the firm's photo mask business.
Separately, local media reported yesterday TSMC plans to up capital expenditure next year by 25 percent to US$10 billion to keep its leadership status in the contract chip manufacturing business.
According to a report by Economic Daily News, TSMC will increase capital expenditure to ready itself for processor orders from Apple and to make sure capacity is sufficient for major clients, such as Qualcomm.
The company said at this point it is not at liberty to discuss next year's capital expenditure, which the firm will announce in January of 2013.

MONTEREY >> There is no mission too difficult, no sacrifice too great and, apparently, no diploma too large for the Defense Language Institute.
Presidio of Monterey's language school gave out an extra-large associate's degree diploma to Army Spc. Alexis L. Fyne on Thursday morning in honor of him being the 10,000th person to receive the honor.
Fyne, 20, whose hometown is Augusta, Ga., was praised by teachers for completing the Persian Farsi program while tutoring students in his class at the same time.
DLI said 40 students have graduated the Persian Farsi course, which lasts 47 weeks.
Starting in 2002, the associate's degree program requires general education studies in addition to language classes.
The head of the program, Kalyn Shubnell, said in a press release 10,000 students achieving the requirements "proves the strong work ethic and determination of our students."

I remember those early days when Twitter first came to light in around 2006 and though I wasn't sure about it, I left it for a little while, but then finally bit the bullet and joined in with the "tweeting" madness.
Though at first I didn't really get it and I don't think many people did what it was all about, I stuck with it, then years down the line when I started my blog I dropped my, little followed, account and Started up @BlazingMinds, though it has had a name change to fit in the branding of the blog.
Twitter Celebrities And The Big Question Why Do They Bother?
So those of us who have been using Twitter for years were then overwhelmed with the celebrities discovering this "new" application for them to promote the hell out of themselves and their works, TV Shows, Films etc.
But as with most celebrities they are a one-way street, with the majority of them sticking together in close groups of fellow Twitter Celebrities and only communicating with each other and totally ignoring their loyal fans and followers, with the exception of a few Twitter Celebrities such as @LadyGaGa and @GunnerGale most Twitter Celebrities just don't bother!
Mass Twitter Followers And Not Enough Time On Their Hands
Ok we know that the big Twitter Celebrities have millions of fans and it can be impossible to answer everyone that tweets them, but some don't even bother at all, but do they care, I don't think they do as long as their follower counts are on the increase, their album sales are still making them stacks of money and they can live in luxury, then why should they care.
It can be impossible for them to reply to those tweeting to them in the masses, but at least some should respond, even big businesses can find time to answer questions regarding services etc, even if it takes a while they do reply.
Do We Really Care?
Too be honest, no! But what annoys me is when you hear a lot of the celebrities banging on about that they are on Twitter, they are almost making out it's something new and don't tell your fans they can get in touch with you via Twitter if you aren't even going to bother tweeting back.
Contrary to belief, Twitter is not a one-way street, it's also about communication! The same is also starting to happen on FaceBook with celebrities saying "Yes you can get in touch with me on Facebook as well", yes that may be true, but you do ignore your fans, so why bother!!!!
Over To You My Fellow Tweeters And Blog Readers
So what do you think? Do you follow any Twitter Celebrities? Do they follow you back? Do they communicate with you?
I'd love to hear your thoughts , so leave you comment and lets see what everyone thinks of the Twitter celebrities 😉

Lone survivor in family suicide faces the law
Dubai The primary charges levelled against a woman who is the sole survivor of a family suicide are of premeditated murder and attempted suicide, Gulf News has learnt.
Sreesha Nambiar was found in her apartment with her wrist and neck slashed in an apparent suicide bid along with the bodies of her husband Rijesh Nambiar, 32, and their daughter Avantika, 5.
The tragic events unfolded on January 14 at the family's single-bedroom apartment in Bur Dubai, behind Al Musalla Tower.
The child was smothered to death while Sreesha's husband hanged himself, police established after an autopsy and on the weight of forensic evidence.
Still in hospital
Sreesha will be charged with attempted suicide, but her involvement in her daughter's death is yet to be established as she is still hospitalised at Rashid Hospital, where she was taken by police ambulance on the fateful day.
Her passport is still in the custody of the police in keeping with normal procedure when a case in ongoing, a Dubai Police source said.
Sreesha is yet to be interrogated by the police as she is still under psychiatric care, hospital sources said.
However, initial charges filed by the police before the public prosecution mention premeditated murder and attempted suicide.
The public prosecution is currently investigating the case and only if prosecutors are convinced of her involvement will charges be pressed against Sreesha in court. If not, then the charges against her would only pertain to a suicide bid.
"Sreesha seemed very disturbed yesterday," said another source at the hospital, adding that she seemed to have recovered to an extent and was even interacting with family and friends who visited her but was also showing clear signs of stress at times.
According to a family friend, who asked not to be named, Sreesha's parents reached Dubai a few days ago. "They flew in from India to comfort her, considering she is going through a lot." One of her cousin sisters also works in the UAE.
Initial claims
Funerals were held for Avantika and Rijesh in February in their hometown in Kerala.
Hospital staff had said in January that Sreesha claimed to not remember anything in the aftermath of the tragedy. "She told her relatives that the last thing she remembers is going to sleep the night before."
When she was first admitted to hospital, she was hysterical but when she calmed down later, she seemed unaware of what had happened to her family and said that her child was at the day-care centre and her husband was at work. Some relatives later attributed the deaths to her.
Brigadier Khalil Ebrahim Al Mansouri, director of Dubai Police's Criminal Investigation Department, had said that Rijesh had left two letters — one to his family and the other to police — in which indicated that he was having financial problems and was also facing problems with his former boss, also an Indian national.
In his statement to the police, the former boss P.N. said he knew Rijesh from 1998 when they used to work together at another company. P.N., who later set up his own business, said that he had loaned Dh5,000 to Rijesh in 2007 and Dh10,000 in 2011. He said he asked Rijesh to repay the money and had contacted him as well as his wife over the phone about it. The night before the incident, Rijesh met P.N. and gave him two cheques towards the money he owed and a laptop belonging to P.N, according to the statement.

|Indeed it seems the issue comes from the crafty book.bin & book.bin packages. On the official ftp site (ftp://ftp.cis.uab.edu/pub/hyatt/)
those files date back to 30/1/2007. At that time the latest stable
version of crafty was 21.6, which is higher than the 20.17 version the
error mesage complains about.
After further investigation i managed to get the book.bin & books.bin files provided on the ftp site to work.
The book.bin & books.bin files provided by the crafty-books-medium debian package are dated from 04/03/2007. They should work according to that date, however crafty reports them as outdated.
So i replaced those files located in /var/lib/crafty by those from the ftp site. (Note : the book files on the ftp server are not that satisfying as they are much lighter that those provided from the crafty-book-xxx packages)
So to me the procedure to solve the issue seem to be :
--- Rebuild up-to-date crafty-books-medium, crafty-books-medtosmall and crafty-books-small packages. Either by asking the author to provide new book files or by creating new ones as explained here : http://www.cis.uab.edu/hyatt/craftydoc.html

MSNBC has found its replacement for Dylan Ratigan's show: "The Cycle."
The new program, which the network was set to announce on Thursday, will feature a permanent cast of four: conservative commentator S.E. Cupp, author and pundit Touré, Salon writer Steve Kornacki and former Congressional candidate Krystal Ball. All were previously contributors to the network. The show launches on Monday at 3 PM.
The outlines for the show were previously reported in the media.
The four hosts and Steve Friedman, executive producer of "The Cycle," spoke to The Huffington Post about the show on Thursday afternoon.
Friedman said that plans for the new show began two or three months ago, when Ratigan told MSNBC executives he was thinking of leaving.
"The Cycle" will be an ensemble show; all four hosts will appear every day, with each one taking turns facilitating the discussion. If that sounds like a certain 5 PM Fox News show, the team behind "The Cycle" is well aware of it. In the Thursday interview, Cupp, Kornacki, Touré and Ball all jokingly pretended not to know what "The Five" is, and Friedman flatly rejected the notion that his new show was derivative.
"When 'The Five' started, did you go and ask them if they were doing 'The View'?" he asked. "When 'The View' started, did you ask them if they were doing the 'Today' show?"

Thousands of people turned out in the glorious sunshine and braved the wet weather for the three day Festival of Transport over the bank holiday weekend.
The noise and aroma of oil and steam returned to Hellingly for the festival which is now in its 39th year.
Organised by the Eastbourne Historic Vehicle Club, it was held at Broad Farm from Saturday (August 23) until Monday (August 25).
There were more than 1,000 exhibits and demonstrations reflecting all aspects of motoring heritage.
