What can you get for an iPhone?
The iPhone hits stores this Friday, and everyone's pretty excited about it. Apple fans are already starting to line up at the Fifth Avenue Apple Store here in New York, and it's only Tuesday. It's no small wonder--the iPhone is shaping up to be an impressive piece of tech that can play MP3s and videos, browse the Web, work as a GPS, and even make phone calls.
Unfortunately, the price seems pretty steep--$500 for the 4GB version or $600 for the 8GB version, even with a contract from AT&T Wireless. The iPhone might be … Read more

Williamsburg White Castle Not Long For This World?
Metropolitan Avenue in Williamsburg hasn't seen much development since it was upzoned in 2009, owing to the financial crisis and development freeze that has gripped the city. But with the thaw lifting, at least one player apparently sees potential on the forlorn strip, one of only two streets east of the BQE where six-story tenement-scale development is allowed: a group called 781 Metro Investors LLC just picked up the White Castle at Metropolitan and Humboldt for $6.72 million, according to city records.

Cool images, taken with your cell phone #58
So, which picture did you like most last time? The answer is Khoa's photo, taken with the Sony Ericsson C901. And a pretty well-deserved first place it is, we should say!
Of course, there are many other incredible images left to be seen. Let's continue with another set of 10 pics, each of which can easily convince even the most professionally-inclined photographer that cell phones are more than a toy in the camera department.
Please note that if your own awesome image is not included here, this doesn't mean that it won't end up on the site. We simply might not have gotten to it yet! So, we urge you to continue following us, as we'll be publishing more of these truly great photos in the following days and weeks.
We'd also like to remind you that you can continue submitting your cool cell phone pics to the following email address:
In order to not miss on all the glory, you also have to mention your name/nickname, as well as the phone you used to take the shots. A nice additional piece of info would be a name or a short description for the image.
With that, we now leave you with our 58th set of favorite photos...

When I choose among the entries, I consider the picture that I could most likely use as a wallpaper. So I'm picking no. 6. :D

8. jmoney62987 (Posts: 31; Member since: 16 Mar 2010)
All the photos had very nice image quality it seemed; but in this set the actual photography was a bit lacking. I love images of mountains and the ocean though...I had to go with 8..just because I love lighthouses and the ocean.
9. skymitch89 (Posts: 969; Member since: 05 Nov 2010)
Oh wow, there are a lot of good ones in this group, but I can only choose 1? Ugh...it's a near draw between #1 & #8, but I think I'll have to go with #1 because it's taken in my home state.

Oracle Confirms Committment to OpenOffice.org
During OpenOffice.org's tenth anniversary, Oracle announced it will participate in ODF Plugfest, one of the conferences aimed at furthering the Open Document Format interoperability, held October 14 - 15 in Brussels . Oracle also stated they would continue developing, improving, and releasing OpenOffice.org as open source software.
As ODF celebrates its fifth anniversary, Oracle said they applaud its efforts and renewed their committment to OpenOffice.org. "Oracle's growing team of developers, QA engineers, and user experience personnel will continue developing, improving, and supporting OpenOffice.org as open source, building on the 7.5 million lines of code already contributed to the community." This might be seen in the continuing efforts of developers to release 3.3.x snapshots as well as previews into some of the new features and tools. For example, Ingrid Halama recently posted of some of the new features coming to Chart, (part 1, part 2). Niklas Nebel also shared some improvements in DataPilot.
This all comes a month after the formation of The Document Foundation and the announcement of LibreOffice. Charles-H. Schulz recently reported that LibreOffice was downloaded 80,000 times its first week and a new user forum quickly followed. A second beta emerged on October 11.
Oracle stated in the same announcement that it welcomes community participation in the project, discussions, and conferences. They are clearly hoping to convey that OpenOffice.org is not only still very much alive, but is conducting business as usual despite all the activity surrounding and developer exodus to LibreOffice. This is no doubt welcome news to the 100 million users of the OpenOffice.org suite.
Susan Linton is a Linux writer and the owner of tuxmachines.org.
Stick OpenOffice up you're Ass Oracle.... You are not our Friends in the OpenSource World
LibreOffice from Now on........
I'm surprised!
I love OpenOffice since then and I would be very sad if ever OpenOffice has some restrictions already because of this tie up. Actually, this is the first time I read about the oracle and openoffice so if ever I don't know exactly if that is good or not. Might as well if it's beneficial to us or just for their company. I don't know what to say but hopefully this should not result to something that is in favor or the consumers like us.
no one will not like it when one day Oracle aske you to pay for Openoffice and Java is next. so you need to asked your self to which said are you going to be. If we let them start to close open source soon they wil be nothing later. take a stand and download liberoffice NOW!!!
Don't Kill OpenOffice
All of this paranoia and politics is going to destroy OpenOffice. Yay LibreOffice! Now we can lose all of the corporate money and paid programming support behind OpenOffice and watch it fork into a thousand versions coded with no quality control by 13 year olds! Um... no thanks. Now (or ever) is NOT the time to throw away all of the paid, experienced OpenOffice developers and bring in unpaid volunteers who don't know the code base. I'll stick with OpenOffice, thank you very much.
Lose corporate money? Hardly.
Novell, RedHat, Canonical. None of these three may be anywhere near as big as Oracle is (or even as Sun was), but that's still a far cry from "lose all of the corporate money".
And as for "paid programming support behind OpenOffice", well, Novell's go-oo is going to be merged into LibreOffice. And I'd be surprised if other companies - maybe SAP, maybe IBM, maybe RedHat or Canonical - didn't get involved in this manner (at least more than they may already be).
Oracle are selling openoffice
I think the free openoffice downloads will stop soon, see
Time for libreoffice is very soon!
Get the facts straight.
Sun always had a paid version of openoffice called staroffice aimed at corporate users, oracle simply renamed it in Oracle OpenOffice:
You should really get more information before posting alarming news.
We will see... Roger
We will see...
Once LibreOffice is announced who cares for Oracle
How does it matter now if Oracle is committed to Openoffice?
Now is the time to Move to LibreOffice.
OpenOffice.org is dead
With Oracle's refusal to join The Document Foundation, key developers leaving, and the announcement by a popular distro that it will be shipping LibreOffice in the future, OpenOffice.org will die off, or become irrelevant, slowly.
Once the community turns away from a project, it's as good as dead.
Oracle's move is good news for OOo, but...
I've used Openoffice.org from the time it was born. In fact, I used StarOffice, OOo was originally based on StarOffice.
Oracle's move is good news for OOo and ODF (I guess), but the announcement of LibreOffice is really good news.
Another long-time OpenOffice.org/StarOffice user here
StarOffice was what originally allowed me to use Microsoft Office formats on Free Software platforms like GNU/Linux. I started using the OpenOffice.org original betas way back when and have been a steady user and fan ever since.
Unfortunately, we cannot trust Oracle. We really do need the LibreOffice project now. Kudos to Canonical for committing to including it in Ubuntu going forward.
Why am I having trouble believing them?
I remember. Because Oracle is a ruthless, competitive, heartless corporate entity. And I fully suspect them to do to Open Office what they did to Open Solaris. I am also worried that VirtualBox is destined to be killed off.
On the other hand, as was noted in a Slashdot article this morning
Open Office does provide a way for Oracle to compete with arch-rival M$.
RE: Why am I having trouble believing them?
My fear is that they will get rid of the 'free for personal use' option and charge for Virtualbox. It's a shame. I've been using it for a few years now.
RE: Why am I having trouble believing them?
There is still the Open Source version of Virtual Box. Granted, it doesn't have all the "bells and whistles" of the Oracle-provided binaries. With time and skill could not robust USB 2.0 / 3.0, Firewire 400 / 800, and other protocols be added to the OS version?
I like and use the provided binary, but will be happy to start compiling (if possible) the source for OS/X.
I also like and use VMware Fusion (Mac) and Parallels (Mac). Each has strengths and some weaknesses missing from one or both of the others.
I've often wished for 1394 (Firewire) support in all three of the VM products I use. My recollection is that WMware and Parallels have stated that there is not enough demand for, or too few products using, that protocol for them to build it into their products.
Add Firewire to the Open Source version of Virtual Box and I think it would leap ahead of VMware and Parallels.
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.

If you already use virtualized infrastructure, you are well on your way to leveraging the power of the cloud. Virtualization offers the promise of limitless resources, but how do you manage that scalability when your DevOps team doesn't scale? In today's hypercompetitive markets, fast results can make a difference between leading the pack vs. obsolescence. Organizations need more benefits from cloud computing than just raw resources. They need agility, flexibility, convenience, ROI, and control.
Stackato private Platform-as-a-Service technology from ActiveState extends your private cloud infrastructure by creating a private PaaS to provide on-demand availability, flexibility, control, and ultimately, faster time-to-market for your enterprise.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!

They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates.

Meyer Lemon OrganicUser reviewsAverage customer review: | Write a review Nice (Sunday, December 08, 2013) Very good on ice! Terrific black tea (Monday, April 15, 2013) I am not much of a black tea drinker, but since it won an award, I had to try it. Very nice taste. Not too strong and lovely lemon flavor. Boyfriend swears best ever (Wednesday, February 29, 2012) We both drink it iced and he thinks its the best he has ever had. I do not usually order black tea (I stick with the green and the herbals) however this tea is awesome and I am ordering a pound of it. I originally bought the 3oz to try it, and it was gone in less than a week. Nice and bold (Friday, February 03, 2012) Another great selection full of flavor and is great iced! My "go to" for iced tea (Saturday, December 03, 2011) This is my favorite for making iced tea. Enough flavor on it's own that no sweetener is necessary. le-me tell you! (Wednesday, November 16, 2011) first you need to know I don't like lemon much. But WOW am I impressed. The Meyer lemon in this tea is not fake tasting (it is real peal) the acid of the lemon is tamed with the balance of the tea and spice notes. Well done! Once you taste this tea you will know why it got awards! Addictive!!! (Tuesday, September 13, 2011) Warning: This tea is addicting. I am an iced tea addict and once I got a taste of this tea using my instant iced teamaker (plus sweetener), I am sold. My monthly budget for iced tea has just shot up. Those crappy commercial iced teas you buy at the store just pale in comparison to the teas here at teasetc.com. My husband who is not a tea drinker also got hooked on this tea. This is a sure win if you aren't sure which tea to try for iced tea:o) Best iced tea! (Tuesday, August 30, 2011) I really like this one hot but yesterday I brewed a pitcher of it for iced tea and I drank the entire pitcher! Wonderfully refreshing with delicious lemon undertones. great ice tea (Sunday, July 03, 2011) Made ice tea and it was so smooth and the meyer lemon added just the right summer brighness |

Water In Rear Seat And Boot
Posted 20 February 2013 - 10:32 PM
I have recently noticed quite a bit of water present in the rear seat at the back of the seat where it meets the vertical seat back. This area was quite wet but the main part of the seat was dry. At the same time I have noticed water in the floor of the back of the boot up close to where it meets the back seat. The rest of the boot is dry.
Today I pulled the rear seat cushion forward to expose the underside which was quite wet. On either side of the underside is a loosly fitting plastic blank. I prised each blank off and could see a hole below about the diameter of a one pence piece leading to the outside.
Is it likely that water could be entering up through these loosely fitting blanks. If so would it solve the problem by sealing them with silicone.
Someone suggested to me that it could be a leak from the rear screen wash but I am not sure about that.
As the rear seat in this car is rarely used it is possible that this is a long standing problem.
I have recently used this car a lot during the wet and snowy weather that we have had.
Any ideas please.

Have you checked the basics like the door sills and the ceiling?
Posted 21 February 2013 - 06:05 PM
have checked around the top of the hatch and can't see any water marks. Completely emptied the boot and used the rear screen wash ----still no sign of water ingress. I suspect it is coming in through the bodywork from the outside. Think I will just have to be detective for a bit.
Having completely stripped the boot and removed the spare wheel I found that the spare wheel basin had 2 inches of water in it ! I suspect that it has gradually built up, perhaps over years. Eventually it has reached such a level that, during normal driving and braking, the water has slopped forwards and seeped into the rear seat area via the back edge of the seat where it meets the vertical seat back. The rear part of the felt boot lining was dry, only the front third near the rear seat was wet.
Now that the boot is completely empty and dry I will keep a close check on it, paticularly during wet weather, to try and find the point of entry.
What do you think. Also thanks for your reply and suggestions.
P.S. In the floor of the spare wheel basin are 3 grommits. Would it be sensible to remove one to let any water that enters to pass through. Not the proper answer I know.
Posted 22 February 2013 - 06:37 AM
Posted 24 February 2013 - 11:22 AM
If I find the cause I shall report back.
Posted 25 February 2013 - 04:28 PM
Posted 07 March 2013 - 06:33 PM
Jeebo, your diagnosis is spot on. The water is definitely entering around both rear light clusters. Obviously new seals required. I thought I would have a go at it myself-------am I being wise. I presume that it's just a case of removing each light cluster, removing the old seals and inserting the new ones. Would value your opinion on this.
Thanks again.
Posted 08 March 2013 - 01:07 PM
glad to be of service
to be honest, the worst you can do is fit them incorrectly, and you get a bit more water in, give it a go yourself, it should be cluster off, old seal off, new seal on and secured then clusters back on

Once again, I am thinking about the parents.
The news that an 18-year-old freshman at Rutgers University committed suicide after his roommate allegedly broadcast the young man's sexual encounter over the Internet, has become one of those stories that all parents feel personally. Could my child be victimized so easily? Could my child do something that stupid and cruel?
Tyler Clementi was a violinist. By description he was a quiet student, not well known by others in his dorm, though hundreds turned out for a memorial vigil on campus last night. His college career had only just begun, and I keep putting myself in the shoes of his parents, who had just dropped their child off for the start of a new adventure, then, a few weeks later, received word that every parent dreads.
I also keep thinking of the parents of the roommate, Dharun Ravi, who was probably matched with Celmenti by a random computer program, and Molly Wei, the classmate charged with helping Mr. Ravi with the prank.
And a prank is what they seem to have thought it was. Read more…

Observe the life by cause and consequence. Explore the life by wisdom. Treat the life by equality. Complete the life by love.

Search on Google Books to find citations of this quotation.
Siddhartha Gautama (Buddha) was a spiritual teacher from the ancient Indian subcontinent and the historical founder of Buddhism. He is universally recognized by Buddhists as the Supreme Buddha of our age. The time of his birth and death are uncertain; most modern historians date his lifetime from 563 BCE to 483 BCE, though some have suggested a date about a century later than this. Gautama is the key figure in Buddhism, and accounts of his life, discourses, and monastic rules were summarized after his death and memorized by the sangha. Passed down by oral tradition, the Tripitaka, the collection of discourses attributed to Gautama, was committed to writing about 400 years later.

Selection of Enagement Area
Areas selected for an enagagement are presented on the Internal Audit Department (IAD) Annual Plan. The plan is based upon input from university and system administration, State Board of Higher Education, and IAD staff.
Factors that are considered in selecting units include:
- Results of the last enagement of the area and length of time since last engagement
- The size and complexity of the operation
- Potential risk of financial loss
- Major changes in operation, program, systems, or controls
- Highly regulated operations or operations subject to a high level of public scrutiny
- Degree of manual and automated processing
- Confidence in management
- Sensitivity (image, reputation, political)
- Assets
- Profits
- Sales
- Employee turnover
- Risk of loss
- Other
Planning & Notification
First, you will receive a letter to inform you of an upcoming engagement. The auditor will send you a preliminary checklist. This is a list of documents (e.g. organization charts, financial statements) that will help the auditor learn about your unit before planning the engagement. During the planning stages, the auditor will also ask you to identify potential objectives that would add value to your organization.
Entrance Conference
At the beginning of each engagement, a meeting is scheduled with the unit head and other appropriate personnel to discuss the engagement scope and objectives, time schedule, and review process. Any concerns raised by the unit personnel are also discussed.
After the entrance conference, the auditor will begin fieldwork. Fieldwork involves interviewing staff, reviewing policies and procedures, and performing detailed tests.
The emphasis of the evaluation is to determine if there are adequate control systems and whether the systems are functioning as intended. The controls are measured against system, state, and federal policies and procedures, as well as, generally accepted accounting principles. Areas of deficiency and potential recommendations are discussed with the appropriate staff and are documented in the engagement work papers. Auditors will also discuss control strengths identified within your unit.
Throughout the process, the auditor will keep you informed. You will have an opportunity to discuss and confirm the potential problems found and possible solutions.
Exit Conference
A meeting is scheduled with the same individuals who attended the entrance conference. At the exit conference, a rough draft of the report is reviewed so that all of the parties understand the nature of the recommendations and agree upon the possible solutions to any problem areas. Any misunderstandings or possible misstatements contained in the report are identified and resolved. Any deficiencies identified during the engagement, which were not significant enough to be included in the report, but still represent a potential risk, are also discussed.
Draft Report & Management Responses
After the exit conference, a draft of the report is finalized. The manager of the activity or department receiving the report is encouraged to respond promptly. This response will indicate what actions were taken or are planned in regard to the specific findings and recommendations in the report. If appropriate, a timetable for the anticipated completion of these actions will be included.
Final Report
The unit's responses are added and any noted corrections are made to the report. The final report is printed and distributed to the appropriate university officials.
There will be a follow-up review approximately 6 to 12 months after the engagement. The purpose of the follow-up is to verify that you have implemented the agreed-upon corrective actions. The auditor will interview staff, perform tests, or review new procedures. The auditor will issue a follow-up memo indicating whether further actions are necessary. If further corrective action is required, you will need to identify what future corrective action is to be taken. Otherwise, you're all done.

Timeless Isle of Wight retreat
the relaxed atmosphere, local cuisine and bedrooms overlooking the hotel's very own beach.
Overlooking the sea from atop a small valley, Priory Bay Hotel, Isle of Wight, is a charming Virginia creeper-clad hideaway. Secluded between the eastern coastal towns of Bembridge and Seaview, this is an idyllic year-round escape for a country break in 60 acres of private gardens and woodland (teeming with wildlife and birds of prey) that lead to the hotel's golden, sandy beach. Inside, through the medieval arched stone entrance, public rooms are framed by tall windows and warmed by roaring log fires. Comfortable, classically-styled bedrooms look out to the grounds or sea, and two family rooms allow mum and dad to sleep peacefully with the children in the next room. For something a little different, Priory Bay has luxury yurts within its grounds, available April to October, surrounded by the woodland and flower-filled gardens close to coastal paths (perfect for long autumn walks) and the private beach. With not one but two restaurants showcasing seasonal cuisine that specialises in local and foraged produce, choose from the tasting menu in The Island Room or brasserie-style dining in The Priory Oyster and sample organic and bio-dynamic wines from the innovative wine list. Highlights: coastal walks, private beach, outdoor pool, adjoining six-hole golf course, tennis courts, tree climbing, falconry courses, seasonal boating and yachting plus a wedding pavilion on the beach.

Notes: = Warren Library for sending and receiving messages, complete with en/decrypting messages on either side of the transport. It was written to handle sending messages between two nodes using RabbitMQ, which is why the two default adapters are for synchronous and asynchronous rabbitmq client libraries. You can delegate the sending & receiving to any custom class you want, simply by subclassing Warren::Queue. (Isn't ruby magic marvelous!) The filtering works in much the same way as the adapter class. There is a default YAML filter that is always called last before sending the message and first when receiving the message, simply to make sure the message is a string when sent + received. You can then add custom classes onto the stack in any order you want, simply by subclassing Warren::MessageFilter. Add them in the same order on the receiving side and warren takes care of calling them in reverse order. Start by looking at examples/ to see how to use it, and then lib/warren/adapters/ to see how to implement your own adapter class and lib/warren/filters to see how to implement your own filters. == Installation gem install brightbox-warren == Usage require "rubygems" require "warren" # Use the bunny adapter to connect to RabbitMQ (Bunny is an AMQP client that works with Rails/Passenger apps) require "warren/adapters/bunny_adapter" # If you're running in development and don't want to actually push messages onto the queue then instead of loading the bunny adapter use the dummy adapter require "warren/adapters/dummy_adapter" # See examples/ for more == Rails Add this to your environment.rb config.gem "brightbox-warren", :lib => "warren", :version => ">= 0.8" Add the config into config/warren.yml with the details for each environment. Works just the same as database.yml: development: user: rabbit pass: carrots53 host: rabbit.warren logging: false And then in an initializer file (or bottom of environment.rb) require the adapter you want to use (for rabbitmq I suggest bunny - amqp uses eventmachine and was giving me issues under passenger.) And then any filters you want to use. require "warren/adapters/bunny_adapter" == License Licensed under the MIT license. See LICENSE for more details. Changes: v0.9.1. Instated the dependency upon bunny v0.9.0. Adding a logger v0.8.9. Fixing a StackTooDeep bug. v0.8.8. Bumping for github v0.8.7. Added a TestAdapter v0.8.6. Also added dummy adapter to gemspec v0.8.5. Added dummy adapter for testing purposes v0.8.4. Fix typo in 0.8.3 v0.8.3. Can now override WARREN_ENV from the command line. v0.8.2. Added nice error message when no details for current env v0.8.1. Fixed bug in passing params in v0.8. Gem works with rails v0.7. Added adapters v0.6. Added config file v0.5. Added filters v0.3.

Danny DeVito, Zach Braff, Laurie Metcalf, Cate Blanchett and Juliette Binoche are amongst the international roster of stars heading to London theatre this year, while homegrown returning stars include Mark Rylance, Simon Russell Beale, Jonathan Pryce, David Suchet, Lindsay Duncan, Jeremy Northam, Imelda Staunton, Michael Ball, Antony Sher, Richard Griffiths, David Haig, Steve Pemberton, Reece Shearsmith, Katherine Kelly and Tara Tointon.
On the musicals front, a bunch of new homegrown commercial musicals are in development, though all are waiting until after the summer Olympics before daring to show their hand. Amongst them are Viva Forever that seeks to do for the Spice Girls what Mamma Mia! did for ABBA, and is being developed with a book by Jennifer Saunders. Musical versions of Bridget Jones' Diary and the films "The Bodyguard" and "The Commitments" are also on the cards, while the much-lauded Broadway hit The Book of Mormon is looking to land in London, too.

The Aldwych also hosts a filler ahead of that with a West End season for the touring dance show Midnight Tango (from Jan. 20), with Vincent Simone and Flavia Cacace, stars of TV's "Strictly Come Dancing." Following the success of last summer's Rodgers and Hammerstein entry at the Barbican with South Pacific, R&H are back there this summer with Opera North's production of Carousel (from Aug. 15), touring first to Leeds and Salford Quays. The summer will also bring a new production of Ahrens and Flaherty's musical Ragtime to the Open Air Theatre, Regent's Park (from May 18).
The Gershwins' Porgy and Bess — currently being revived on Broadway in a new production with Norm Lewis and Audra McDonald in the title roles —- is also heading back to the U.K., by way not of Broadway but of Cape Town. A tour of Cape Town Opera's production of the show, which relocates the action to the townships of Soweto, will kick off in Birmingham in June, before ending up at the London Coliseum July 11-21.
Another Broadway classic, Wonderful Town, with a score by Leonard Bernstein (music) and Comden and Green (lyrics), will be seen at the Lowry in Salford Quays; they are joining forces with the Hallé Orchestra and Manchester's Royal Exchange Theatre to present a run from March 31 to April 14. Connie Fisher, who won the 2006 TV contest "How Do You Solve a Problem Like Maria?" to star in the London Palladium revival of The Sound of Music that year, will lead the cast, and then go on an 11-week nationwide tour with the production.
Also embarking on a U.K. tour is a new production of Andrew Lloyd Webber's roller-skating musical Starlight Express that ran for nearly 18 years in the West End (kicking off at New Wimbledon Theatre from May 10), joining the ongoing touring production of Lloyd Webber's Evita. A re-designed, newly staged production of The Phantom of the Opera is going on a big U.K. tour, too, kicking off in Plymouth in March 2012, with a cast that will see the current London Phantom John Owen-Jones share the title role at different dates with Earl Carpenter. Featuring a new design and staging that retains Maria Björnson's original costumes, the production is directed by Laurence Connor, with choreography by Scott Ambler and set design by Paul Brown.
Also in the regions, Susan Boyle will appear herself in the finale of I Dreamed A Dream, a new touring musical based on her life story, kicking off at Newcastle's Theatre Royal March 23; a new production of Jule Styne and Stephen Sondheim's Broadway classic Gypsy will be staged at Leicester's Curve beginning March 13, starring Caroline O'Connor as Rose; and the premiere of a brand-new musical Loserville will run at the West Yorkshire Playhouse in Leeds from June 16. On the fringe, Adam Guettel and Tina Landau's 1994 Floyd Collins will be revived at Southwark Playhouse from Feb. 28, with Glenn Carter (Jesus in the 2000 Broadway revival of Jesus Christ Superstar) in the title role.

Illinois Digital Archives
Towanda Grain Company Submitted by Steve Fincham, 2006 The Towanda Grain Company was originally owned by Hans Sachs and was operated as a lumber yard as well as grain business. It was sold to Maurice and Price N. Jones in the early 1900's. They continued the operation until 1908 when they sold it to the newly formed corporation registered with the State of Illinois as the Towanda Grain Company. The first Board of Directors included: C. H. Ceiger, President, James Donahue, P. N. Jones, D. W. Secretary--Treasurer, P. J. Henderson, B. W. Stover, and Louis Kraft. Orren Clark was the first manager of the new corporation. In December 1921 capital stock was increased, it was reorganized as a co-operative. A new elevator was constructed in the mid-1930's which is still being used. The Board members were very foresighted in their planning, demonstrated by the fact that they installed a driveway of sufficient width and height to easily accommodate the large trucks of today. Another innovation was a slotted floor which made the unloading of grain into the elevator a much simpler operation. A fire in 1951 destroyed the office and a portion of the lumber year. A new and more modern structure was soon in the building stage. At this time a new scale was also installed, which could weigh larger trucks than had previously been possible. 1955 saw the addition of a feed mill for the convenience of the livestock men in the area. However, it was discontinued January 1, 1976. More storage room was added which necessitated grain drying facilities. The first such equipment was installed in 1962. More bins and driers have since been added until the present storage capacity is six hundred thirty--four thousand bushels. Managers through the years have included Orren Clark, E. Gatliff, Burditt Kraft, Frank Brewster, Henry Burr, Bill Loftus, Clark White and presently Stephen Fincham (according to the 1976 book). Mention must be made of two long--time employees; Adam Kwasigroh who came from Germany, was with the organization for years. The other employee, Seldon Devore who after many years of service retired and still lives in Towanda. The records show that the Grain Company has dealt in everything from Case automobiles, farm machinery, tires, coal, hardware, lumber, seeds, livestock feed and supplies to farm tile, depending upon the needs of the surrounding agricultural community. (copied from the 1976 book). In 1980 the Grain Company purchased the Mallard Miller home South of the elevator and built six 1000,000 BU steel bins. Page 1 of 2 During the 1980's numerous changes were made to upgrade the equipment and to pan ahead for future needs. Listed below are the highlights. Replaced dryers with two 4,000 BU per hour Zimmerman Dryers Built two new concrete tanks, 320,000 BU each, and put a 10,000 BU per hour pit and leg in the storage East of the office. Built two 500,000 BU flat storage buildings on the Henderson Heir's land West of the elevator. This land is leased each year. Spent $55,000 to asphalt all the gravel roads around the elevator and office. They also put three oiler systems at the three receiving pits (cost of $40,000) to keep the dust and dirt from causing a problem with the neighbor's homes. At the present time, 2005, The Towanda Grain Company has 3,100,000 BU of storage and dry 8,000 BU per hour (taking out 5 pts. per hour). The Towanda Grain Company will be 100 years old in 2008. Tracy Kessinger was worked as an elevator employee since 1978 and is still employed. During the past 100 years, the Grain Company has employed 3 full-time bookkeepers. They are Jean Perring, Ellen Marquardt, and Dollie Fincham. Steve Fincham retired as manager in 1998. There have been several other managers in the time since his retirement. They are: Todd Steinberg, Tim Boerma, and Randy Sexton who is the current manager. Page 2 of 2

Debian Opens "Front Desk" for Derivatives
Many Linux projects use Debian Linux as their code base for developing their distributions. Perhaps as many as 120 distributions are based on Debian and some include SimplyMepis, sidux, KNOPPIX, Elive, and Parsix. Perhaps the most widely known and used is Ubuntu. Ubuntu receives negative comments because many feel its developers don't contribute back upstream.
One of the reasons derivative projects don't give back is how difficult and time consuming the process can be. Many just don't know what to do. So Debian has created a contact point to facilitate the practice.
The Front Desk will be manned by volunteers to act as mentors and advisors for derivative developers asking how to contribute work back to Debian. Developers can find out who to contact for any given package or what is the exact procedure for giving back.
A wiki page has been set up and a mailing list has been activated to make contact easier. Debian is currently looking for Debian volunteers to monitor the mailing list and answer inquiries. Derivative developers can get more information at wiki.debian.org/DerivativesFrontDesk, subscribe to the mailing list at debian-derivatives AT lists.debian.org, or browse the archives at lists.debian.org/debian-derivatives.
Contributing upstream helps all distributions grow in stability and features and Debian hopes their new Front Desk will do just that.
Susan Linton is a Linux writer and the owner of tuxmachines.org.
Ubuntu is not a fork
OMG. It's really miserable to read the same misconception again and again. Ubunut is not a fork of Debian. Unlike the smaller derivatives, it is a sister distribution. The failure to recognize this has let to lots of development stalling.
Instead of Debian steming this alone, they should officially invite Ubuntu to contribute to the effort. The linked Wiki page has too spurious notes about that. But at least on the mailing list, there seems to be some awareness on the real world situation.
Where does the article say that Ubuntu is a fork?
It clearly mentions that Ubuntu is a derivative - not the same as a fork.
But why not read it straight from the horses mouth:
Ubuntu and Debian
Great news! :]
I use Debian by myself, and I think that there should be some bridge between different distributions based on Debian like that one, to make easier working on the same packages :]
This is really good idea, and maybe first step to merge different packagers and developers to give users better packages to us :D
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.

If you already use virtualized infrastructure, you are well on your way to leveraging the power of the cloud. Virtualization offers the promise of limitless resources, but how do you manage that scalability when your DevOps team doesn't scale? In today's hypercompetitive markets, fast results can make a difference between leading the pack vs. obsolescence. Organizations need more benefits from cloud computing than just raw resources. They need agility, flexibility, convenience, ROI, and control.
Stackato private Platform-as-a-Service technology from ActiveState extends your private cloud infrastructure by creating a private PaaS to provide on-demand availability, flexibility, control, and ultimately, faster time-to-market for your enterprise.

Kid Showing Off His Parallel Parking Skills
This is a short video of a future stunt car driver showing off his parallel parking skills to all the neighborhood ladies (6 and under only, please. Cougars need not apply).

Driver '76's New York City will inevitably seem familiar to players of the console title for which it serves as a prequel - 2006's Driver: Parallel Lines - but the portable format suits its short missions and bite-sized police encounters nicely.
There's a rudimentary story about earning a date with a Triad gang leader's daughter, but behind the wheel is where the real action is: 27 main story missions skid all over the Big Apple as you hijack trucks, drive getaway on armed robberies, steal hot rides, tow hoopties for parts, and shoot holes in anything that gets between you and Chee Chi's bedroom. Few missions last more than five or ten minutes, making even main campaign progress accessible on the go.

text: Anglers flocked to West Grand Lake and Pocumcus Lake over the weekend to take part in the West Grand Lake Fishing Derby. The target: lake trout, or as they're commonly called in these parts, togue. Framed through the arch of a fishing rod, Jonathan James of Eddington adjusts his lines. Later, at the boat landing, Michelle Ferland and her son, Ben — both of Lincoln — show off a nice stringer of togue. State fisheries officials encourage the take of small lake trout in West Grand so that other fish will have enough feed to thrive and grow large. The top winner in the derby (somewhat embarrassingly) was the photographer who submitted these shots, former Bangor Daily News employee Terry Farren. Farren landed a laker that weighed about 6½ pounds and won $1,000 for his efforts.
