Calculating Day of the Week
For those of you playing along at home, you'll recall that our intrepid hero is working on a shell script that can tell you the most recent year that a specific date occurred on a specified day of the week—for example, the most recent year when Christmas occurred on a Thursday.
There are, as usual, nuances and edge cases that make this calculation a bit tricky, including the need to recognize when the specified date has already passed during the current year, because if it's July and we're searching for the most recent May 1st that was on a Sunday, we'd miss 2011 if we just started in the previous year.
In fact, as any software developer knows, the core logic of your program is often quite easy to assemble. It's all those darn corner cases, those odd, improbable situations where the program needs to recognize and respond properly that makes programming a detail-oriented challenge. It can be fun, but then again, it can be exhausting and take weeks of debugging to ensure excellent coverage.
That's where we are with this script too. On months where the first day of the month is a Sunday, we're already set. Give me a numeric date, and I can tell you very quickly what day of the week it is. Unfortunately, that's only 1/7th of the possible month configurations.
What DOW Is That DOM?
For purposes of this discussion, let's introduce two acronyms: DOM is Day Of Month, and DOW is Day Of Week. May 3, 2011, has DOM=3 and DOW=3, as it's a Tuesday.
The cal utility shows this month like this:
May 2011
Su Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa
1 2 3 4 5 6 7
8 9 10 11 12 13 14
15 16 17 18 19 20 21
22 23 24 25 26 27 28
29 30 31
Look! A perfectly formed month, so it's easy to figure out the DOW for once. But, that's not really fair for our testing, so let's move forward a month to June and look at June 3 instead. That's DOM=3, DOW=6 (Friday):
June 2011
Su Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa
1 2 3 4
5 6 7 8 9 10 11
12 13 14 15 16 17 18
19 20 21 22 23 24 25
26 27 28 29 30
The solution I'm going to work with is likely more complicated than necessary, but it's mine and I'm sticking with it.
Here's the idea. As awk goes through the lines, it easily can ascertain NF (number of fields). If NF < 7, we have a month where the first day starts on a DOW other than Sunday. Any matching date for the first week of June 2011, for example, would have NF = 4.
Look back at June though, because it's important to recognize that the last week of the month has a problem too. It has NF=5. Because any match in that line must have DOM > 7, however, we can address this nuance later. Stay tuned, as they say.
The formula we can use to calculate day of week for the first week of a month, however, given all this information and with i the day of the month is DOW=i+(7-NF). A few test cases verify that it works:
June 3 = i=3, NF=4 DOW=(7-4)+3 = 6
July 1 = i=1, NF=2 DOW=(7-2)+1 = 6
May 2 = i=2, NF=7 DOW=(7-7+2 = 2
For any date that doesn't occur on that first week, however, we can ignore all these complicated calculations and simply get the day of the week.
How do you tell if it's in the first week? Another test. Search for the matching DOM and then look at the matching line number. If it's not line 1, we have to calculate the day of week from the matching cal output line:
awk "/$expr/ { for (i=1;i<=NF;i++)
{ if (\$i~/${day}/) { print i }}}"
In my previous columns, I was creating this overly complicated regular expression to match all the edge cases (literally, the cases when the match was the first or last day of a week). Instead, here's a new plan that's faster and less complicated. We'll use sed to pad each calendar with leading and trailing spaces:
cal june 2011 | sed 's/^/ /;s/$/ /'
Now our regular expression to match just the specified date and no others is easy:
Further, awk easily can give us that NF value too, so here's a rough skeleton of the DOW function for a given day of the month, month and year:
day=$1; caldate="$2 $3"
NFval=$(cal $caldate | sed 's/^/ /;s/$/ /' | \
awk "/$expr/ { print NF }")
DOW="$(( $day + ( 7 - $NFval ) ))"
That works if we search only for matches that are in the first week of the month, but that, of course, is unrealistic, so here's a better, more robust script:
day=$1; caldate="$2 $3"
cal $caldate | sed 's/^/ /;s/$/ /' > $temp
NRval=$(cat $temp | awk "/$expr/ { print NR }")
NFval=$(cat $temp | awk "/$expr/ { print NF }")
if [ $NRval -eq 3 ] ; then
DOW="$(( $day + ( 7 - $NFval ) ))"
DOW=$(cat $temp | awk "/$expr/
{ for (i=1;i<=NF;i++) { if (\$i~/${day}/) { print i }}}")
/bin/rm -f $temp
A few quick tests:
DOW of 3 june 2011 = 6
DOW of 1 july 2011 = 6
DOW of 2 may 2011 = 2
DOW of 16 may 2011 = 2
Looks good!
Next time, we'll tie this all together. We have a function that calculates day of week for a given date, we already have figured out how to parse user input to get a desired day of week for a specified month/day pair, and we know how to figure out if the starting point for our backward date search is the current year (for example, whether we're past that point in the year already).

date does DOW
This does it all with the current date:
date "+%u" (or date "+%a")
Or you can specify a date (MMDDHHMMYYYY) and use -j to prevent setting the date:
date -j 0530002012 "+%a"
However, just for the fun of it, back in 1985, I wrote this independent bash script (you pass it a date yyyymmdd and an optional second parameter "word" to get text instead of a digit):
function f_dow { # yyyymmdd
# Copyright (c) Paul A. Scott, 1985, 2000, All rights reserved.
declare -a mtab=(6 2 2 5 0 3 5 1 4 6 2 4)
declare -a wtab=(sun mon tue wed thu fri sat)
cc=$(( $yy / 100 ))
dec=$(( $yy % 100 ))
weekday=$(( (($yy/4)-$cc)+($yy/400)+$dd+$yy+${mtab[$mm-1]} ))
if (( (($yy%400==0)||(($yy%4==0)&&($yy%100!=0))) )) ; then
if (( $mm<3 )) ; then
weekday=$(( $weekday-1 ))
case $2 in
word | [Ww][Oo][Rr][Dd])
echo "${wtab[$(($weekday%7))]}"
echo "$(($weekday%7))"
f_dow $1 $2
Forgot to mention . . .
The 'date' command solution was for BSD, but Linux 'date' has support with different syntax; consult the man pages for more info. The independent bash script runs anywhere.
Simple solution using the 'date' command
For any reader who would prefer a (much) simpler solution to the whole problem, I repeat the one I gave as a comment in the previous related post:
dow=`date -d $1 +%a`
if [ `date +%s` -lt `date -d "$*" +%s` ]
until [ `date -d "$count year ago $*" +%a` = $dow ]
count=`expr $count + 1`
date -d "$count year ago" +%Y
$ ./whatyear.sh THURSDAY february 24 # Notice the free formatting
$ ./whatyear.sh Sat Sep 15 # True this year... but in the future
Easier if you use the korn shell
DOW=$(printf '%(%w)T' "$1")
printf "DOW of $1 = $((++DOW))\n"
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

ETH Zürich (German: Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule Zürich) is an engineering, science, technology, mathematics and management university in the city of Zürich, Switzerland. Like its sister institution Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL), it is an integral part of the Swiss Federal Institutes of Technology Domain (ETH Domain) that is directly subordinate to Switzerland's Federal Department of Economic Affairs, Education and Research.[3]
ETH Zürich is consistently ranked by major World University studies as among the top universities in the world.[4] It is considered the best university in continental Europe by the Shanghai Ranking ARWU, the Times Higher Education World University Rankings Ranking[5] and the QS World University Ranking. It is currently ranked 4th in Europe overall, and 8th best university in the world in engineering, science and technology.[6] Twenty-one Nobel Prizes have been awarded to students or professors of the Institute in the past, the most famous of which is Albert Einstein in 1921, and the most recent is Kurt Wüthrich in 2002. It is a founding member of the IDEA League and the International Alliance of Research Universities (IARU) and a member of the CESAER network.
The school was founded by the Swiss Federal Government in 1854 with the stated mission to educate engineers and scientists, serve as a national center of excellence in science and technology and provide a hub for interaction between the scientific community and industry.[7]
ETH was founded in 1854 by the Swiss Confederation and opened its doors in 1855 as a polytechnic institute (Eidgenössische Polytechnische Schule). It comprised in the beginning six departments: architecture, civil engineering, mechanical engineering, chemistry, forestry, and a catch-all department for mathematics, natural sciences, literature, and social and political sciences. It is locally still known as Poly, derived from the original name Eidgenössische polytechnische Schule[8] "Federal polytechnic school".
ETH is a federal institute (i.e., under direct administration by the Swiss government), whereas the University of Zürich is a cantonal institution. The decision for a new federal university was heavily disputed at the time, because the liberals pressed for a "federal university", while the conservative forces wanted all universities to remain under cantonal control, with the goal of giving liberal thoughts no refuge.[9] In the beginning, both universities were co-located in the buildings of the University of Zürich.
From 1905 to 1908, under the presidency of Jérôme Franel, the course program of ETH was restructured to that of a real university, from its early, very schoolish agenda, and ETH was granted the right to award doctorates. In 1909 the first doctorates were awarded. In 1911, it was given its current name, Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule. In 1924, another reorganization structured the university in 12 departments. However, it now has 16 departments.
Since 1993 ETH Zürich, the EPFL, and four associated research institutes were joined and administered together as the "ETH Domain".
ETH Zürich is regularly ranked among the top universities in the world. Typically, popular rankings place the institution as the best university in Switzerland and on the European continent, among the top 3-5 European universities, and among the best 10-20 of the world.
Historically, ETH Zürich has achieved its reputation particularly in the fields of chemistry, mathematics and physics. There are 21 Nobel Laureates who are associated with ETH. The most recent Nobel Laureate is Richard F. Heck who was awarded the Nobel Prize in chemistry in 2010. Albert Einstein is perhaps its most famous alumnus.
In 2013 the QS World University Rankings[10] placed ETH Zürich at 12th overall in the world, and 1st in mainland Europe, while only four UK universities performed better than it in Europe. In the 2013 Times Higher Education World University Rankings ETH Zürich ranked 14th overall, 8th in the field of Engineering & IT and 12th in Physical Sciences.[11]
According to the 2013 Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU), the ETH is ranked 20th in the world, the 4th best university in Europe, and 1st in Switzerland. It is also ranked 5th in the field of Chemistry and 8th in the broad subject field of Natural Sciences and Mathematics worldwide.[12])
In a comparison of Swiss universities by swissUP Ranking and in rankings published by CHE comparing the universities of German-speaking countries, ETH Zürich traditionally is ranked first in natural sciences, computer science and engineering sciences.
In the survey CHE ExcellenceRanking on the quality of Western European graduate school programmes in the fields biology, chemistry, physics and mathematics, ETH was assessed as one of the three institutions to have excellent graduate programmes in all considered fields, the other two being the Imperial College London and the University of Cambridge. To support its cutting edge research, ETH Zürich has a budget of 1.47 billion CHF (approx. 1.62 billion USD) in the year 2012.

ETH is not selective in its undergraduate admission procedures. Like every public university in Switzerland, ETH is obliged to grant admission to every Swiss citizen who took the Matura. It also grants entry to foreign students with certain qualifications, such as A-Levels with GCSE, but only in specific combinations. Most applicants from foreign countries are required to take either the reduced entrance exam or the comprehensive entrance exam; an applicant can be admitted to ETH even without any verifiable educational records by passing the comprehensive entrance exam.[13]
As at all universities in Switzerland, the academic year is divided into two semesters. Examinations are mostly not held at the end of the semester, but in an examination sessions immediately before the beginning of the next semester. After the first year of study, Bachelor students must pass a block examination of all courses of the first year, called the Basisprüfung. If the weighted average score is not sufficient, a student is required to retake the entire Basisprüfung which usually means having to re-sit the whole first year. About 50% of the students fail the Basisprüfung on first try and many of them choose to drop out after the failure. The structure of examinations in higher academic years is similar to the Basisprüfung (Basis examination), but with a higher success rate. The regular time to reach graduation is six semesters for the Bachelor of Science degree and three or four further semesters for the Master of Science degree. The final semester is dedicated to writing a thesis.
Education at ETH Zürich is theoretically oriented with a high amount of mathematics involved throughout the degree programmes. The main language of instruction in undergraduate (Bachelor) studies is German, with an increasing amount of courses in English in higher semesters. Most Master's programmes and doctoral study are in English.
ETH Zürich has two campuses. The main building was constructed in the 1860s in the heart of the city. As the university grew, it spread into the surrounding quarters. As a result, the Zentrum campus consists of various buildings and institutions throughout Zürich and firmly integrates the ETH in the city. The main building stands directly across the street from the University of Zürich.
Because this geographic situation substantially hindered the expansion of ETH, a new campus was built from 1964 to 1976 on the Hönggerberg in the outskirts of the city. The last major expansion project of this new campus was completed in 2003; since then, the Hönggerberg location houses the departments of architecture, civil engineering, biology, chemistry, materials science and physics.
Main building[edit]
The main building of ETH was built from 1861 to 1864 under Gustav Zeuner; the architect, however, was Gottfried Semper, who was a professor of architecture at ETH at the time and one of the most important architectural writers and theorists of the age. Semper worked in a neoclassical style that was unique to him. It emphasized bold and clear massings with a detailing, such as the rusticated ground level and giant order above, that derived in part from the work of Andrea Palladio and Donato Bramante. During the construction of the University of Zürich, the south wing of the building was allocated to the University until its own new main building was constructed (1912 – 1914). At about the same time, Semper's ETH building was enlarged and also got its impressive cupola.
Science City[edit]
In the year of ETH Zürich's 150th anniversary, an extensive project called "Science City" for the Hönggerberg Campus was started with the goal to transform the campus into an attractive district based on the principle of sustainability.
Student life[edit]
ETH students were found to be the busiest students of all institutions of higher education in Switzerland.[14] The undergraduates' tight curriculum consists of as much as twice the number of lectures as comparable courses of other Swiss universities.[citation needed]
ETH has well over 100 student associations. Most notable is the VSETH (Verband der Studierenden an der ETH) which comprises all department associations. The associations regularly organize events with varying size and popularity. Events of the neighboring University of Zürich are well-attended by ETH students and vice versa. The VSETH organizes events of greater public attention, such as the Polyball, the Polyparty (does not exist any more) and the Erstsemestrigenfest, the first two housed in the main building of ETH. Sometimes, the annual Erstsemestrigenfest takes place at extraordinary locations, for example the Zürich Airport. All freshmen enjoy special treatment at that event.
There are several student associations, most notable of those are the Entrepreneur Club Zurich and ETH Model United Nations. Both organisations enjoy high international standings and are regularly awarded for excellence in their field.[citation needed]
The Academic Sports Association of Zürich (ASVZ) offers more than 80 sports. The biggest annual sports event is the SOLA-Stafette (SOLA relay race) which consists of 14 sections over a total distance of 140 kilometers. More than 760 teams participated in the 2009 edition.[15] The 40th edition of the SOLA, held on May 4th 2013, had 900 enrolled teams, of which 893 started and 876 were classified.[16]
The annual Polyball is the most prestigious public event at ETH, with a long tradition since the 1880s. The end of November, the Polyball welcomes around 10,000 dancers, music-lovers and party animals in the extensively decorated main building of ETH. The Polyball is the biggest decorated ball in Europe.
The amicable rivalry between ETH and the neighbouring University of Zürich has been cultivated since 1951 (Uni-Poly). There has been an annual rowing match between teams from the two institutions on the river Limmat.
There are many regular symposia and conferences at ETH, most notably the annual Wolfgang Pauli Lectures, in honor of former ETH Professor Wolfgang Pauli. Distinct lecturers, among them 24 Nobel Laureates, have held lectures of the various fields of natural sciences at this conference since 1962.

Two held over 1991 disappearance
10:23am Tuesday 17th December 2013 in National News © Press Association 2014
Police investigating the disappearance of a young mother as she walked to her parents' home 22 years ago have arrested two men on suspicion of her abduction and murder.
West Midlands Police, investigating the disappearance of Nicola Payne, said the men, both 49, were arrested at 8am today at their home addresses in the Bell Green and Stoke areas of Coventry.
A 51-year-old woman was also arrested at the Bell Green address on suspicion of perverting the course of justice.
All three have been taken to police stations in the West Midlands for questioning by detectives.
Ms Payne went missing after setting out on foot from her home in Coventry on December 14 1991.
Despite extensive inquiries, 18-year-old Ms Payne - who had a seven-month-old baby son at the time, has never been seen again.
Her family are aware of today's development, police said.
It comes just days after a fresh appeal for information was launched, following new forensic results which detectives described as "a breakthrough".

You can also upgrade from the Exchange Online standalone plans to an Enterprise plan.
In most cases, you can use the Switch plans wizard in your Admin center to upgrade your plan.

Donovan (Donovan Phillips Leitch, born 10 May 1946, in Glasgow), is a Scottish singer-songwriter and guitarist. Emerging from the British folk scene, he developed an eclectic and distinctive style that blended folk, jazz, pop, psychedelia, and world music. Donovan came to fame in the United Kingdom in early 1965 with a series of live performances on the pop TV series, Ready Steady Go!, and his popularity spread to the USA and other countries. After signing with the British label, Pye Records in 1965, he recorded a handful of singles and two albums in the folk music vein. After getting out from his original management contract, he began a long and successful collaboration with leading independent record producer Mickie Most, scoring a string of hits in the UK, the USA, Australia and other countries, including several British and American #1 hits and million-selling records.
Donovan was one of the most popular British recording artists of his day, producing a series of hit albums and singles between 1965 and 1970. He became a friend of leading pop musicians including Joan Baez, Brian Jones, Bruce Springsteen, and The Beatles, and was one of the few artists to collaborate on songs with the Beatles. He influenced both John Lennon and Paul McCartney when he taught them his finger-picking guitar style in 1968. Donovan's commercial fortunes waned after he parted ways with Mickie Most in 1969, and he left the music industry for a time.
He continued to perform and record sporadically in the 1970s and 1980s, but gradually fell from favour. His gentle musical style and hippie image was scorned by critics, especially after the advent of punk rock. Donovan withdrew from performing and recording several times during his career, but he underwent a revival in the 1990s with the emergence of the rave scene in Britain. Late in the decade, he recorded an album with producer and long-time fan Rick Rubin and released a new album, Beat Cafe, in 2004.

Apple, Google, Microsoft unite against NSA spying program
The top tech companies are sharpening their blades in their battle with the National Security Agency. While they've been doggedly asking for transparency on the agency's mass surveillance program for months, they're now calling for reform.
Google, Apple, Microsoft, Yahoo, Facebook, and AOL penned a letter (pdf) to the lead members of the Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday urging the lawmakers to substantially reform the NSA surveillance practices. The companies also asked for additional oversight and accountability mechanisms for the spying programs.
"Transparency is a critical first step to an informed public debate, but it is … Read more

How To Buy Snorkeling Equipment
Shop All Snorkeling Equipment
Having the proper and best fitting snorkeling equipment for you is important for enjoying days spent out on the water. Proper equipment may include: snorkeling masks, snorkeling fins, the snorkel itself, snorkeling gloves, snorkeling boots, and wetsuits. DICK's Sporting Goods even offers full snorkel equipment sets including the mask, fins and snorkel.
Snorkeling Masks:
The snorkeling mask is the most important piece of equipment to buy and fit correctly. An ill-fitting mask will lead to water leaks and could be too tight on the face, leaving unwanted marks and general discomfort.
Mask Construction
Mask Lenses/Windows
There are a few choices of lens type when selecting a snorkeling mask: single lens, split or two lenses, and three/four lens masks.
Single Lens
Split/Two Lenses
Three/Four Lenses
Mask Fit
Making sure your snorkeling mask fits correctly is important�it prevents water leaks and unnecessary tightness while snorkeling. Here are some guidelines to appropriately fitting your snorkeling mask.
What mask fitting comes down to be is sealing and comfort. Make sure the mask is properly sealed on your face, but not sealed tight enough that it leaves marks or feels uncomfortable.
Snorkeling Fins:
Snorkeling fins are an important piece of equipment, allowing you to swim quicker against any currents and protecting your feet from rocks and coral in the water. When choosing the right pair of fins, the main aspect to keep in mind is comfort. There shouldn't be any deep marks on your feet or unnecessary rubbing against your skin causing discomfort�this typically occurs if the fins are too tight.
Fin Types
There are two types of snorkeling fins you can choose from: open-foot and closed-foot fins.
Open-Foot Snorkeling Fins
Closed-Foot Snorkeling Fins
Swimming Fins vs. Snorkeling Fins
The main difference between a pair of swimming fins and snorkeling fins is the length of the fin. Swimming fins are shorter and ease up pressure put on the knees while kicking through the water.
Snorkeling fins are longer, and despite requiring a more strenuous effort to move, propel you faster through waters with any sort of current.
Your snorkel is how you breathe while swimming face down in the water. It has a soft mouthpiece, fully equipped to seal out any unwanted water while keeping the user comfortable. It attaches to the side of your face mask, allowing you full mobility while swimming.
Types of Snorkel
Basic Snorkel
Semi-Dry Snorkels
Dry Top Snorkels
Purge Valve
Snorkeling Boots, Gloves, and Wetsuits:
Snorkeling boots, snorkeling gloves and wetsuits are available as accessories to different types of snorkelers. If the water temperature is cold, using one or more of these pieces of gear is an optimal choice.
Snorkeling Boots
Snorkeling Gloves
Short Wetsuit
Full Wetsuit
Snorkeling Equipment Sets:
DICK's Sporting Goods offers snorkeling equipment sets that come with snorkeling fins, a snorkeling mask, a snorkel, and even some with a carrying bag to keep your equipment together and organized.
Snorkel and Mask Combos
There are other equipment snorkel combos available like the one featured just above. These sets contain just the mask and snorkel. It's ultimately up to the user what type of gear they need when purchasing the right snorkeling set for them.

Catalog number: 167438062
Tag: liga
Function: Replaces a sequence of glyphs with a single glyph which is preferred for typographic purposes. This feature covers the ligatures which the designer/manufacturer judges should be used in normal conditions. The glyph for ffl replaces the sequence of glyphs f f l.
Tag: onum
Function: This feature changes selected figures from the default lining style to oldstyle form. The user invokes this feature to get oldstyle figures, which fit better into the flow of normal upper- and lowercase text. Various characters designed to be used with figures may also have oldstyle versions.
Tag: tnum
Function: Replaces figure glyphs set on proportional widths with corresponding glyphs set on uniform (tabular) widths. Tabular widths will generally be the default, but this cannot be safely assumed. Of course this feature would not be present in monospaced designs. The user may apply this feature to get oldstyle figures to align vertically in a column.
Tag: kern
Function: Adjusts amount of space between glyphs, generally to provide optically consistent spacing between glyphs. Although a well-designed typeface has consistent inter-glyph spacing overall, some glyph combinations require adjustment for improved legibility. Besides standard adjustment in the horizontal direction, this feature can supply size-dependent kerning data via device tables, "cross-stream" kerning in the Y text direction, and adjustment of glyph placement independent of the advance adjustment. Note that this feature may apply to runs of more than two glyphs, and would not be used in monospaced fonts. Also note that this feature does not apply to text set vertically. The o is shifted closer to the T in the combination "To."

Nairobi, Kenya, 5 Apr 05
In a keynote address, Mrs. Shannon H. Sorzano, Head of the United States Delegation, said UN-HABITAT challenged governments to recognize the importance of sustainable human settlements as part of the overall health of nations. While the world's urban population is expected to grow by 2 billion by the year 2030, she said much of this growth would be seen in the developing world – already facing the challenges that rapid urbanisation and ill-prepared institutions yield.
"In working with UN-HABITAT over the last biennium, we have appreciated its contributions to international, national and local dialogues on sustainable human settlements," she said. "We saw the efficacy of the UN-HABITAT model in Barcelona when the Second World Urban Forum assembled a large, diverse and experienced set of public and private practitioners to exchange ideas, challenge conventional wisdom, and work toward keeping promises that are a generation old."
Mrs. Anna Tibaijuka, UN-HABITAT's Executive Director, warned the government ministers and representatives of the 58 countries on the Governing Council that Target 11 of Millennium Development Goal 7 - improving the living conditions of at least 100 million slum dwellers by the year 2020– was not ambitious enough and had to be revised upwards. This quest would be a priority high on the agenda of the meeting which will last until Friday. She likened the rising urban poverty in the world to a slow-motion Tsunami.
"The United Nations," Mrs. Tibaijuka said, "has to become an institution that responds to the slow-motion tsunamis of the developing world."The Governing Council of UN-HABITAT meets every two years in a high-level forum of governments at the ministerial level to set UN-HABITAT's policy guidelines and budget. This year, they are discussing two special themes on involving civil society in the improvement of local governance, and assessment and reconstruction in post-conflict and natural and man-made disasters.Mrs. Sorzano said Washington was impressed with UN-HABITAT's role in joining the African Union to convene the first African Ministerial Conference on Housing and Urban Development where housing delivery and associated water and sanitation provision were prioritised on the African development agenda.
But she added: "Because the challenges of urban governance and poverty are complex, UN-HABITAT is pulled in many directions. It will need to remain focused on its core mission and find the proper balance between its normative and operational activities. It particular, UN-HABITAT needs to carry forward its global campaigns on urban governance and secure tenure."
Ultimately, she said, national and local authorities, civil society and private sector were responsible for meeting the multiple challenges of urban development: "UN-HABITAT can assist, but cannot substitute for them. The United States values our partnership with UN-HABITAT. Through our development assistance agency, USAID, we have supported UN-HABITAT's central normative role in collecting and managing data on urban indicators, which we ourselves use."
Representatives of a number of other countries, including Kenya, Nigeria and Uganda, agreed that the thirteenth session of the Commission on Sustainable Development (CSD-13) scheduled to take place at the United Nations Headquarters in New York, from 11 to 22 April 2005, would provide an important opportunity for UN-HABITAT to showcase its expertise in best practices and policy options, as well as help it identify and advance practical measures and mechanisms that deliver results.
Norway, a major donor country, said the challenges of urbanisation still remained "unseen and neglected" on the international development cooperation agenda.
Norwegian State Secretary, Mr. Roger Iversen, announced that the Nordic countries and the United Kingdom had therefore decided to launch a high-level commission for the legal empowerment of the poor.
"We see this commission as an important opportunity for UN-HABITAT, based on its vast experience and knowledge of tenure issues, to support and contribute to the work of the commission and beyond," Mr. Iversen said, adding that it would be established in September.
Mr. Amos Kimunya, Kenya's Minister for Lands and Housing, said his country supported new mechanisms being put in place to monitor MDG7, Target 11 on slums. At the country level, he said, the government and UN-HABITAT had together undertaken mapping surveys of the capital, Nairobi, Kisumu and Mombasa as part of a programme to be extended to other towns in the country.
Mr. Kimunya, echoed the views of a number of countries at the plenary, when he added that if the agency was to help meet the target on improving slums around the world, "UN-HABITAT requires the requisite resources to enable it to carry out this mandate. We underscore the efforts made in establishing the Slum Upgrading Facility as a technical assistance and a bridging finance vehicle to mobilise domestic capital for slum upgrading. If adequately funded, the facility will enhance slum-upgrading in developing countries."In a related event, Canada's Minister of Labour and Housing, Mr. Joe Fontana, hosted a luncheon meeting at the Governing Council to formally announce the launch of the third session of the World Urban Forum next year in Vancouver. He said UN-HABITAT and the Canadian government had already started preparations for the forum, which will bring together public and private institutions, experts and leaders from around the world to discuss the key challenges confronting our rapidly urbanising planet.
World Urban Forum III will mark the 30th anniversary of Habitat 1 – the first United Nations conference on human settlements. Held in Vancouver in 1976, the occasion, which led to the creation of UN-HABITAT, marked the first time the challenges of urbanisation were brought onto the international agenda.

Great Crosses -
Roger D, Charlotte NC I was buying small very flat crosses to give away to people at Wmart, they no longer have them so I tried these and they are so much nicer. I give them to people I meet, leave them in restaurants with my tip, etc. The quality is superb and the price is low enough I can afford to give them to people. Everyone I give them to is very touched. I highly recommend them. Shipping was very fast and I enjoy doing business with Century. |

Kelly, I love that you can let the dishes sit there in the hopes and possibility that someone else will do them. I am usually that someone else. I can't stand them in there. My daughter was home from college and lived with me over the summer. It seemed I never got out of that sink as we were cooking all the time. At the end of the summer, she politely tells me, that she would have done the dishes but I get to them too fast!!
So patience is a definite virtue as they say.
I love love your blog by the way. Just discovered it yesterday and I can't wait to try the almond milk. You make it look so easy.

Mmm! I'm totally making these tomorrow with our sweet potatoes from the Door to Door Organics box :)
BTW, I am in love with that fork. Where did you buy it? - October 3, 2010 at 8:05 PM
- Kelly said...
Rosie, My plan worked too... He came home and washed them without me asking him :-) I'm so glad you are enjoying my blog! And making almond milk IS easy! You will love it!
Amanda, Cool! I hope you like them, and that most of your kids do, like most of mine did. LOL The fork is from World Market. They have the best stuff =) I only bought two to use for photos and Andy goes, "Oh, these are COOL! We're keeping these!" Because I usually use stuff for a few photos then donate it =) - October 3, 2010 at 9:09 PM
- Beth said...
Kelly, these look really good! I love sweet potato cakes. Such a healthy, simple meal.
Oh, and I always wait for the hubs to catch a hint and do the dishes (he usually does, too!).

Hi Kelly - adding a "flax egg" to this recipe would have made it a lot easier (and added yummy nutritional value). Just mix a tablespoon of ground flax seeds with 3 tablespoons hot water until it's gloppy. Looks tasty and something I could definitely eat!
- October 4, 2010 at 5:30 AM
hi Kelly, I haven't written in awhile but I still do look at your blog and marvel at all your wonderful creations! It's funny, I was just thinking about your chicken meatballs yesterday, and now I see Elana has a post about her version of them on her site!
Anyway, I am not doing eggs right now so I especially love your posts that are egg free! Thanks. Peace! - October 4, 2010 at 6:27 AM
- Kelly said...
Thanks Beth! And hehe =)
Thanks Deanna! I thought the guar gum would be enough, but next time I'm going to leave it out and take your suggestion =)
Hi Saskia! I bet you could use the "flax egg" Deanna suggested for my meatballs that Elana posted. Maybe I'll do that for dinner tonight myself =) - October 4, 2010 at 9:43 AM
- nikki said...
think chia as a substitute would work?
btw, my hubby is awesome about cooking and doing dishes! and cleaning the shower and all kinds of things :o) - October 4, 2010 at 5:22 PM
I adore sweet potato recipes and appreciate the flaxseed comment. I have tried sweet potato biscuits and will definitely try this.

Hi Kelly,
I wanted to let you know that I added these sweet potato cakes to my favorite recipes from last week post. I just love sweet potato and these looks like a perfect dinner dish! Thanks :)

These look delicious! I have been craving sweet potato like nobody's business.
- October 7, 2010 at 3:25 PM
- Lori said...
These look great! I have a big pile of sweet potatoes from the community garden where my husband and I volunteer. I'll be trying these with a 'flax egg' this week!
- October 11, 2010 at 9:29 AM
- Lisa said...
Can't wait to try these! I may even mix the sweet potatoes with some regular potatoes, because that's what's in the fridge today. Thx!

Five celebrity cars from the New York auto show
NEW YORK--Some cars become stars in their own right, appearing in movies or television and gaining as much a place in the public imagination as any human celebrity. A display by Miami's Dezer Collection at the 2010 New York auto show catapulted us right back to childhood as we lovingly gazed at Speed Racer's Mach 5 and the Monkee Mobile.
More-recent celebrities in this mix included K.I.T.T. from "Knight Rider," and the Batmobile from Tim Burton's "Batman" and "Batman Returns."
Most of these cars are the originals, built … Read more

So why isn't this stickied? It's too good of an UI to not me imo. Been using it since it came out way back when.
No, I'm using the exact same set up (except I turned the Experience Bar on until I hit 80). The only problem right now is that Pitbull does not have a working interface for the Rune Bar so it defaults to the top left corner of your screen (where the default rune bar would be if you were using the default Blizzard frames). There's no ETA on getting this fixed either. In the meantime I've been using Magic Runes : WoWInterface Downloads : Death Knight, but I hate it frankly. I just found RuneMover : WoWInterface Downloads : Death Knight today and I'm going to test that out and see if I can get the default bar moved back.
So why isn't this stickied? It's too good of an UI to not me imo. Been using it since it came out way back when.
Is there anyone who is able to understand what may be happening here? I am getting this same problem involving WoW immediately closing out, unless I delete the config.wtf file, in which case, the game will load. The only thing I can figure is that there may be a setting specified for video or audio-related issues that conflicts with the capabilities of the computer (aliasing, for instance). While it is not a problem to simply delete the file and get the UI to work, the UI ends up losing various unit frame settings and such as a result. I am just wondering if there is a way to get the UI to work without deleting the config.wtf file. Thanks to anyone in advance!
BTW, Caulle, this is honestly one of the best I've seen - just hope I can get mine to look like yours :P
<> Karius of Khadgar <>
Level 80 Protection Warrior
Second time I've heard this, I'll have to look into it. My game settings are set to max detail except for View Distance and Shadow Quality to eek out a bit of performance. You can tweak your video settings at the log in screen now so to anyone else having problems I'd suggest doing that first if you know your computer can't handle max settings.
I just looked through the config.wtf file and there's nothing in there that pertains to my UI settings other than the UI Scaling which anyone can easily fix on their own in game. I'll try and have a new upload soon as I've made some slight tweaks.
What u using for modify ur chat box?
Well, I gave what you suggested a try, and I put everything to their lowest settings for good measure. I still encountered the same problem. Anyway, I sure hope you're able to figure it out - I know I won't be able to :P. Just wanted to make sure you knew that adjusting video settings doesn't fix the problem of WoW closing out.
<> Karius of Khadgar <>
Level 80 Protection Warrior
Caulle, did you include sct in your 3.1 version? I didn't find it.
No because I was aboard the fail boat that day. I copied the folders to my desktop to work from (there's some stuff I trim from the overall download and didn't want to mess up my real folders) and then I made changes to the UI and forgot to re-copy the folders to my desktop.
I'll try and have an update as soon as I can. I hit 80 on my DK and decided I had more fun on my warrior so I had to power her to 80, and have since spent all my time in heroics/naxx. Ugh, busy busy. Things should calm down a bit now as my heroic group is about 8 Achievements away from the proto drake, and my gear is on par again.
Nice Caulle looking forward to it.
In the Pitbull when i enter in combat my health bar change to red...
how i do for my bar stay always the collor of my class
ty guys
Caulle in your Pitbull setup how can I tune Runes off? They are above the Unit frame but I'm using another mod for them as well.
I get this error whenever I'm in dungeons:
Interface\FrameXML\UnitFrame.lua:144:usage:FrameTo oltip:SetUnit("unit")
Any ideas?
K I'll do that and see what happens.
What's the B4 keybinding on Heroic Strike?
Excellent UI Caulle! Once again to inspire us :P
Seems there is a bug on SCT not showing combat damage. I'm going back to Parrot for the time being ^^

Wow, late reply. No, I have 1 username. Again, that should tell you I am not alone. Is it that so difficult for you to understand that not everyone agrees with you in your self-centered world, and that there are more than one of us? Ponder this for a while and just try to let it soak in. I, however, know that there are millions of people that don't agree with me, and that's why Lenovo is raking it in. Because they hide CHEAP components behind the main brand name parts commonly listed - Intel CPU, nVidia GPU, etc., the same as the other OEMs. And people buy them by the droves. What does logic tell you moron when a company can sell so inexpensively and STILL make such big profits?? Volume? No, because the sales figures are similar to Dell and HP. Chinese manufacturing? No, same asian manufacturing that makes all the other junk for Dell, HP, etc. They make them cheap by cutting corners wherever they can, whether it's the screens, motherboards, RAM brands, quality control, testing, etc. Are you too stupid to figure this out? That's rhetorical. ps. The reason I'm aggravated is the abundance of absolute stupidity and ignorance in our society. So yes, you aggravate me easily. |
gpu not that good for gaming despite being a 1gb. I think it's a class 3 card
bottom line, lenovo is absolutely not to be trusted outside of the thinkpad line. glad you got all your money back and thanks again for the report. |

My dog loves your Bully Sticks
They always say the first impression is a lasting one. Well my first order of Best Bully Sticks arrived today. My dog is in love with his new Braided Bully Stick. He is a real chewer, and so far has not made a dent in this stick. I think we have finally found a Bully Stick that will last longer than one night. And I am totally impressed with the Customer Service and speedy delivery along with the Great Price. I am telling all my friends about Best Bully Sticks. They truly have earned their name. Thank You--Sandie Collins

Philip B. Anti-Flake Relief Shampoo
Philip B. Anti-Flake Relief Shampoo helps to heal and soothe dry or oily, flaky scalp.
Melissa J.Central New JerseyHairDark BrownThick or Coarse HairWorks WondersThis is a very good product for my husband and daughter. They both have very dry scalp and have noticed a difference after 2 uses. We ordered some more just in case they run out.posted Jan 2, 2014Link to this post
TchowSan Francisco, CaBest Shampoo I've Found For Dry Scalp IssuesI thought I had tried every scalp product on the market, all with no luck of solving my dry scalp issues - including getting a water purifier for my shower and prescriptions from my dermatologist. And then I found this shampoo on folica and I have never been happier. It hasn't made the problem completely disappear since the itching, dryness and flakes come back when ever I don't use it, but when I do use it - ahhh, sweet relief...finally. The only drawback is the price, which seems a little steep to me, but I've started using a cheaper shampoo to wash out styling product and then I put this on as a scalp treatment which works out and makes it last longer. I would recommend that anyone with annoying scalp issues give this a try.posted Jan 7, 2010Link to this post
