Next-Generation Open Source Technologies Now Available in Fedora Core 6
United States, October 24, 2006Fedora Core 6, the community-supported Linux distribution, arrives with install-time access to external repositories, support for Intel-based Macs and a new GUI virtualization manager
The Fedora Project, a Red Hat (NASDAQ: RHAT) sponsored and community-supported open source collaboration, today announced that the latest version of the popular Fedora Core distribution, Fedora Core 6, is available for download at http://fedoraproject.org. The Fedora Project is host to the best of next-generation open source technologies. An increased focus on the entire user experience has yielded benefits on the desktop, in performance, for systems administrators and developers, and across virtualization.
Fedora Core 6 provides a noticeable performance increase during the start-up of applications such as OpenOffice.org. In addition to the previously supported x86, x86-64 and Power PC chip architectures, this release features support for Intel-based Macs. Fedora Core 6 also introduces a new GUI virtualization manager.
The primary enhancement to the installer is the ability for a network-accessible installation to access third-party RPM repositories, such as Fedora Extras or a local repository, at install-time. The impetus for this change is quite simple - choice. Fedora installation is now more customizable than in previous releases.
"Releases of Fedora Core are always exciting events for the open source community," said Robert 'Bob' Jensen of the formal Fedora Documentation and the community's Unity projects. "The Fedora Project enables many non-technical contributors and developers alike to have a hand in collaborating on the next wave of important technologies in open source. Fedora Core 6 comes from the many interesting formal and informal projects that people like me are a part of."
Fedora Core 6 continues to advance the desktop with improved font and artwork, as well as the usability improvements that come from the latest upstream releases of GNOME and KDE. Improvements to the desktop in Fedora Core 6 include a new platform that enables GL-accelerated effects on a standard desktop, better and faster software updating tools and the latest upstream versions of favorite open source applications.
The newly rewritten printer configuration tool has been extended with many new features. Devices are now detected on-demand as necessary, and support for per-user queues is available, so users can customize their printer settings without having to modify system-wide configurations.
Fedora's internationalization efforts benefit from additional language support, as well as tools to switch input methods. Overall, essential components of Fedora are now translated into more than 50 languages, mainly by volunteer contributors.
Enhancements in performance in Fedora Core 6 build upon established, underlying systems. The start-up boost that applications such as OpenOffice.org receive is gained from being rebuilt with DT_GNU_HASH. This hash is optimized for speed and data cache accesses. Another area of enhanced performance is in network file systems, including NFS.
Fedora Core 6 brings new features and improvements in both underlying and interactive parts of the administrator's experience. One major gain is the ability to specify external repositories during installation time. While it has long been possible to install from a local or specific network location, Fedora Core 6 now allows for the selection of third-party package repositories during installation. As this includes the Fedora Extras repository, the separation between packages in Fedora Core and Fedora Extras is lessened when it comes to installation choices. These installation improvements, coupled with improvements in package dependency and updating tools, make it easier to manage systems.
New GUI management tools include a virtualization manager, an SELinux troubleshooting tool and an improved LVM cluster management tool. Smart card services are provided through the new CoolKey technology. Other system improvements include support for IPv6 and a single 2.6.18-based Linux kernel that automatically detects and configures for the number of processors on a machine.
The Fedora Project Board is actively planning the next release of Fedora Core, and encourages anyone who is excited by open source software development to join the effort at http://fedoraproject.org.

Collective Action and Responses to Poor‐Quality Recycling in St. John's
This paper discusses the lack of proper recycling programs in St John's, NL and explains the relevance of collective action and rational choice theories in addressing the matter. The city has done a poor job of implementing proper recycling programs, and is one of only two provincial capitals that does not offer a government-funded curb‐side recycling program. While some private recycling programs do exist in the city, they are inefficient and thus viewed by the populace as a waste of time. As most people believe that their individual waste contributions will not make much difference to the overall state of the environment, waste continues to accumulate and negatively impact the environment, as well as the image and state of the city. Collective action theory, as discussed by Ostrom, offers several possible solutions, such as privatization of territory or discussion amongst the populace. Unfortunately, such solutions are impractical for this particular problem. The government must step in and impose a recycling "Leviathan" by implementing mandatory recycling and forcing citizens to recycle or be left with their own refuse. Only by making recycling a self-interested priority for the populace will St John's be able to improve its waste management practices.

Is Marks and Spencer the answer to Limerick's problems?
Yet another article appeared in yesterday's Limerick Chronicle in relation to the ongoing saga of our Opera Centre. Now that the council have purchased the site they are engaging in heating exchanges with the owner of the Parkway Valley site. Tied into this is the debate surrounding whether or not Marks and Spencer would be the appropriate anchor tenant for the Opera Centre if, as expected, planned developments of the site as a large retail development goes ahead.
I recently downloaded Mary Portas' review of the state of retail in the UK. Before I write any more I would suggest that every developer, retailer, planner, councillor, decision maker, Tom, Dick or Harry has a bound copy of the 55 document on their person at all times. She makes sense does Mary.
One of the questions we must ask ourselves is why are the majority of those with an interest in the site so gung ho on Marks and Spencer being the salvation of Limerick City Centre's woes. The answer lies in the concept of convenience. Shopping as we know it has changed radically over the past 30 years. Why has the Crescent Shopping Centre seen such success? Why is Dundrum still considered to be a Mecca for shoppers? Why does yet another out of town development by the Parkway make sense to a developer even in today's climate? Why is Limerick City dying a death? The answer is convenience. We as shoppers have become accustomed to the notion of everything we need being under one roof.
Marks and Spencer for some reason is seen as the missing link in Limerick. Most of the other major brands have set up camp in the Crescent. Marks and Spencer won't be locating in the Crescent due to site restrictions so it is well known that they are actively pursuing a location in the city centre or potentially the Parkway Valley.
During my time in Dublin and London I would have used Marks and Spencer occasionally and mostly for its food offer which is excellent. However what must be recognised is that food in M&S is not cheap. People are cash strapped at the moment and my uneducated guess is that, if they were to establish themselves in the city centre, there would be an initial rush down the aisles followed by a slow and steady downfall in footfall. I also believe that if city council bases the design of the site around the presence of a major retailer then it will have missed a fabulous opportunity. This is where Mary Portas comes in.
Portas gives some figures in her introduction and I will list them here:
• Town centre vacancy rates have doubled over the last two years and total consumer spend away from our high streets is now over 50%
• In 2015 we'll be spending more than £40 billion a year over the internet and through mobile devices
• Out-of-town developments have enjoyed positive growth rates since 2001 while town centre growth has been largely negative
• Since 2001, the number of superstores in the UK has grown by 35%, whilst all other forms of grocery outlet have declined
Fundementally what Portas points out is that how we operate as consumers has changed. We crave immediacy. We crave convenience. But strangely we also crave a sense of community. By investing in the likes of Marks and Spencer, Tesco, Lidl, Aldi and so on the money we spend does not get recycled in the local economy. Local high street businesses close resulting in less footfall on the onset of a vicious circle. We are in an age of consumerism and the recent crying out for a Marks and Spencer presence in the city is a perfect example of that. It is only a small percentage who see that the answer to Limerick's problems does not lie in a new retail presence.
The recent success of the Milk Market is the great success story to emerge from Limerick in recent years. The reasoning for this lies in that sense of community. Local people saying hello as they nibble a freshly made sandwich or sip coffee and browse under the grand white canope and listen to locals playing live music. The atmospheric sense of community that exists on a morning or afternoon in that place is irreplacble. It certainly does not replicate in the Crescent.
Mary Portas quotes from Jane Jacobs 1961 book 'The Death and Life of Great American Cities'
"The trust of a city street is formed over time from
many, many little public sidewalk contacts. It grows
out of people stopping by at the bar for a beer, getting
advice from the grocer and giving advice to the
newsstand man, comparing opinions with other
customers at the bakery and nodding hello to the two
boys drinking pop on the stoop, hearing about a job
from the hardware man and borrowing a dollar from
the druggist.
Most of it is ostensibly utterly trivial, but the sum
is not trivial at all. The sum of such casual, public
contact at the local level – most of it fortuitous, most
of it associated with errands – is a feeling for the
public identity of people, a web of public respect
and trust, and a resource in time of personal or
neighbourhood need…"
I sometimes get off the bus outside Dan Lawless' florist. If he is in there is always a wave, occassionally a chat but without doubt a smile. I sometimes eat brunch in the Wild Onion. There is always a welcome (occasionally gruff), a hello and a sense of hospitality. I sometimes browse through the many delights in Country Choice and I get an immediate welcome smile. Advice on what is good is always on hand. This is what community is about and this is what a high street and town centre should be about. The major chainstores remove the individuality away from the neighbourhood.
It is not impossible to bring this sense of community back into Limerick. It is only about us reevaluating where the future of retail is going. Could it be that the future of a town like Limerick could be one which is void of any major retail presence? Could it be that a return to the old days of market trading sustaining a vibrant community is on the cards?
Last Summer, before the riots, I walked the streets of Croydon. Everywhere you look there are market stalls, independent traders, butchers and cafes. On the other side of London take a trip to Wood Green and notice the thriving local community. Wander Portobello Market on a Saturday Afternoon. Stroll through Elephant and Castle. Get immersed in the magic of Camden. It can well be argued that the successes of these markets are down to footfall and population but they are also down to the sense of community, the excitement of the atmosphere and the sense of fulfillment as you people watch over a coffee.
Before Limerick City Council makes a fundemental error using short sighted strategies to possible tobble external developers with county land they must stand back, read the likes of Mary Portas and think about what is coming down the tracks. Limerick is known for its people. The city must be given back to the people. Marks and Spencer may just have a place in the county afterall.

1 comment:
I think Limerick is slightly too big for aspects of the shopping community you describe Nigel. I could be wrong but it does not allow for the reality of familly life, and is more the view of single City dwellers.
Otherwise I agree M&S would fit better into the County. Even when the previous owner had the Parkway Valley site they could not get an anchor tenant to allow them to lay out the floors, and make any progress beyond building the lifts and stairwells. Times have changed, and it's a shame to see it rotting, and it has the infra structure around it. Would it not be good to see people working there, and some use of the site ?
Convenience is the way things have been progressing for quite some time, and the Council should embrace this and get onboard, it's not going to reverse anytime soon.
I don't agree M & S are expensive, they have driven prices down with package offers, there wine is far better value. I can't see how they would be viewed as popular in the short term, there is no evidence of this anywhere else they have opened, don't think Limerick would be any different in this respect.
Mary Portas has summarised what has already happened, mixed with a good guess at the future, and acknoledging the effect the internet will have on the retailing future. - 5 January 2012 14:49

SKOWHEGAN -- A Madison Avenue bank was robbed just before 5 p.m. Thursday by a man who said he had an accomplice with a rifle outside, police said.
Michael Emmons, Skowhegan police chief, emerges from the drive-through teller bay at Franklin Savings Bank on Madison Avenue in Skowhegan Thursday, Dec. 13, 2012, while investigating a robbery.

The man was described to be about 60 years old, wearing layers of dark clothing and a dark, hooded sweatshirt.
He entered the Franklin Savings Bank through the entrance facing Madison Avenue, according to Skowhegan police Chief Michael Emmons. He handed a female teller a note demanding cash and showed her a plastic bag to put the money in.
He did not display a weapon.
The teller handed over an undisclosed amount of cash and the man escaped on foot through the same door, Emmons said.
"He told the teller to give him everything she had at that particular teller station," Emmons said. "They got the doors locked and called 911."
The call reporting the robbery came in at 4:41 p.m.
Emmons said there was no evidence of another person outside with a rifle and a getaway vehicle was not seen by witnesses.
Skowhegan police officers along with Somerset County sheriff's deputies and Maine State Police searched the area using tracking dogs in an attempt to find the robber. Police briefly detained a man farther up Madison Avenue, behind Gifford's Ice Cream, but let him go.
Police also were searching trails behind VIP Discount Automotive, next to Gifford's; but by 6:30 p.m., no one had been arrested.
"The individual was wearing a lot of clothing, several layers of clothing," Emmons said. "He had on dark pants and was wearing an orange hunting baseball cap, with a skull cap over the top. Black gloves. No mask."
The man appeared to be about 5 feet, 6 inches tall, Emmons said.

Pair Accused Of Plotting To Kill Singer Joss Stone
Prosecutors say two men accused of plotting to rob and kill soul singer Joss Stone planned to decapitate her, then dump her body in a river.
The suspects, Junior Bradshaw and Kevin Liverpool, were arrested in June 2011, close to the singer's house after suspicious neighbors reported them to police. They never reached her house.
Opening the case at Exeter Crown Court, prosecutor Simon Morgan told a jury the pair, aged 32 and 35, set off from their home in Manchester with a samurai sword, knives, a hammer, black bags and gloves for Stone's house in Devon.
Morgan said that handwritten notes found in the suspects' car indicated they planned to decapitate the singer before finding a river to dispose of her body.
The defendants deny all charges.

Three Fords that are all black, all post cars, all big motors, all immaculate, and all owned by three cousins in West Virginia. Two brothers, Carroll and Delane, and their cousin Kenny are three lifelong Ford guys from West Virginia who have been building Blue Oval brawlers for more than 40 years. The three cousins have formed a trio of high horsepower harmony, and while their cars vary, each bares a family resemblance in performance, style, and execution. These boys love horsepower, and what's better, the three cousins actually drive the cars regularly, thereby promoting a love for what these cars can become when placed in the right hands.
The motor is an all-aluminum, 427-based 496ci stroker. Carroll bought the aluminum block from Carroll Shelby in 2004. The rotating assembly includes Diamond 4.310-inch pistons, Scat 6.700-inch rods, and a Scat 4.250-inch-stroke forged steel crank. Carroll opted for a Comp Cams mechanical roller cam with 0.740-inch valve lift, and Comp Cams valvesprings. Kuntz and Co's Jim Kuntz in Arkadelphia, Arkansas, ported and polished the Blue Thunder heads, and a Ford tunnel wedge intake became home to two 600-cfm BJBK Holley carbs. The motor runs Crites headers, a Meziere electric water pump, and a Griffin aluminum radiator. Carroll estimates that this engine on the dyno would report 800 horsepower. It's a stout combination for sure.
Brakes on this frightening '55 are stock. Yes, stock. When asked why his big bad business coupe runs OEM brakes, Carroll explains, "These drums are small and light, but their downfall is if you have to stop hard two or three times, you have to replace them. But I have no trouble with the standard brakes."
The Hurst Cheater Slicks are Carroll's second set of rear tires because, in his words, "The four link works fine... I've set 'em on fire a few times." The front tires are P215/75R15 mounted on stock 15x5 rims, while the back has 15x6.5 station wagon rims, which wear Hurst 28.5x8.75x15 Cheater Slicks.
The interior was faded, so Carroll's brother found N.O.S. '55 stock interior seat covers and installed a back seat in the business coupe since the rare pieces for the rear seat delete didn't come with the car. An Autometer tachometer and gauges keep the driver informed, while the Turbo Action Cheetah shifter controls a Performance Automatic C4 racing transmission with Kevlar bands, a trans brake, and a Coan converter.
Out back you'll find a 9-inch out of a '63 Galaxie that has been braced and narrowed to fit the '55. An aluminum driveshaft rotates a set of 3.89 gears that turn a Detroit Locker. Carroll's cousin Kenny Hess installed the Chassis Engineering four-link suspension with coilovers without cutting the stock frame.
The '55 Ford is seriously overlooked as hot rod material, but owner Carroll Foster had a vision for a killer stealth '55.

By John Torenli, Sports Editor
Brooklyn Daily Eagle
The season-high seven-game winning streak and perfect start to 2013 the Nets had built came burning down in Atlanta on Wednesday night.
Brooklyn interim coach P.J. Carlesimo, who has guided the resurgent Nets to a 9-2 mark since taking over for Avery Johnson in late December, cited fatigue, as well as the Hawks' urgency to bounce back from a humiliating loss, as the main factors in his team's first poor performance of the new year.
"We're flat-out exhausted," Carlesimo admitted, moments after the Nets trailed from the start and never seriously challenged in a 109-95 loss before 15,029 fans at Philips Arena. "They ran it down our throats the entire game."
Nets shooting guard Joe Johnson, a six-time NBA All-Star during seven seasons in Atlanta before being traded to Brooklyn, had an unhappy homecoming, managing 15 points on a dismal 4-of-15 performance from the floor. Backcourt mate Deron Williams was limited to 12 points while misfiring on all but five of his 18 attempts.
Center Brook Lopez put up 22 points and nine rebounds for the second straight game, but the Nets, playing for the eighth time in 14 days just one night after grinding out a tough victory over Toronto at the Barclays Center, couldn't muster the type of effort that has helped them climb back into the thick of the Atlantic Division race during Carlesimo's tenure.
''They outplayed us in pretty much all the aspects of the game,'' Carlesimo noted as Brooklyn dropped two games behind first-place East River rival New York in the division race, pending the outcome of the Knicks' game against Detroit in London on Thursday.
Atlanta was coming off a day of rest following Monday night's nightmarish 97-58 drubbing in Chicago, and was without the services of leading scorer Josh Smith, who was suspended for the dreaded "conduct detrimental to the team."
Jeff Teague picked up the slack for Smith, scoring a career-high 28 points to go with 11 assists for the Hawks, who will be in Brooklyn on Friday night for the back end of the home-and-home set.
''They were a very, very good team tonight without Josh,'' Carlesimo said. ''You've got to think they're going to be a better team when they add a player of his caliber on Friday.''
The Nets (23-16) will try to avoid their first back-to-back losses during the Carlesimo era, and give themselves a chance to head into Madison Square Garden on Martin Luther King Day with an opportunity to move even closer to the Knicks in what is suddenly shaping up as a very competitive race for first place.
Johnson, a staple of Atlanta's recent playoff teams, drew boos throughout the contest, especially during player introductions.
"I would think it's not going to be an easy situation, especially when Joe played here as long as he did," Carlesimo predicted prior to the opening tip.
Some good news did emerge from the Nets' first loss since a New Year's Eve defeat in San Antonio as forward Gerald Wallace, out two games with bruised ribs following a nasty fall at Barclays Center in last Friday's win over Indiana, returned to action. Wallace managed four points and two rebounds with a steal in 15 minutes off the bench, and could return to the starting lineup when Carlesimo deems him ready for more minutes.
Lopez, likely to be named an All-Star Game reserve for the Eastern Conference later this month, hit 10-of-14 shots while backup Andray Blatche again provided strong minutes with 12 points on 6-of-7 shooting. But the Nets were outrebounded, 41-37, and went a frightening 4-of-26 from 3-point range.
The Nets will try to extend their home winning streak to seven games Friday night, with an eye on gearing up for their third meeting of the season with the Knicks, who will have to shake off some jet lag when they return from London.
"I expect a different Net team Friday night," insisted Johnson. "Besides the game, it was great to come back to Atlanta and see some of the guys. It just didn't seem like we were in tune [Wednesday night]. This is our job, and there's no excuse. We'll get back to the drawing board and bounce back on Friday."
With the NHL lockout over, Brooklyn hockey fans can finally start focusing on supporting their soon-to-be team from Long Island.
The Islanders, slated to arrive at Barclays Center for the 2015-16 season -- unless they can get out of their Nassau Coliseum lease a bit sooner, will kick off the abbreviated 48-game NHL campaign Saturday night at defending Eastern Conference champion New Jersey.
Though they've finished last in the Atlantic Division in each of the previous five seasons and haven't qualified for the playoffs since 2007 -- Sound familiar Nets fans? -- the Isles are looking forward not only to expanding their fan base in the future, but putting together a winning product sooner than later.
'It's up to us to get off to a good start,'' oft-injured, high-priced New York goaltender Rick DiPietro told the Associated Press during the team's one-week training camp. ''Adrenaline is going to be flowing.''
Budding young stars like John Tavares and Matt Moulson could soon be as recognizable to Brooklyn sports fans as Deron Williams and Brook Lopez have become during their first few months on the corners of Atlantic and Flatbush Avenues.
But for now, the Isles will have to focus on arriving in our fair borough as a legitimate postseason contender, rather than the cellar dwellers they've been for the past half-decade.
''Every team is optimistic,'' noted Tavares, who led the team with 50 assists, 86 points and ranked second behind Moulson with 31 goals last season. ''I think it's trying to be consistent. It's critical for us to be sharp.''
Hoop du Jour: Former Net Devin Harris, one of the players who went to Utah in the blockbuster deal for Williams in 2011, now plays for the Hawks. The 6-foot-3 guard burned his former teammates for 18 points on 6-of-11 shooting Wednesday night. ... Hawks F Smith is averaging 28 points in his last two games against the Nets. ... Williams' 12-point effort Wednesday was his lowest offensive output since an eight-point night against San Antonio on New Year's Eve. ... The Nets haven't dropped back-to-back games since consecutive losses to Boston and Milwaukee from Dec. 25-26 -- their final two contests under coach Avery Johnson.

The East Mills football team posted it's third shutout of the season and rushed for 367 yards in a 66-0 victory over West Monona in the regular-season finale for both teams in Class A, District 8 on Friday.
"This was one of those games we knew if we took care of business we could get the win," said East Mills coach Andy Irwin.
With the victory the Wolverines (7-2) wrap up the No. 2 spot in District 8. East Mills will host Woodward-Granger in the Wednesday's opening round of the playoffs. Kick off is set for 7 p.m. in Malvern.
Spencer Phillips rushed for a career-high 287 yards and four touchdowns as Fremont-Mills cruised to a 61-12 victory over Lenox on Friday.
The Knights played the game without head coach Jeremy Christiansen who missed the game due to a death in the family. Assistant coaches Greg Ernster and Kyle Fichter served as co-head coaches in Christiansen's absence.
"The kids came out fast and wanted to get this game done early and get ready for Wednesday," Ernster said.
TABOR - Someone said long ago it's not easy to beat a team three times in the same season. Sure didn't look that way last Tuesday as Fremont-Mills dominated Heartland Christian from the first serve en route to a 25-15, 25-12, 25-10 Class 1A, Region 2 opening round victory in Tabor.
Glenwood won the battle but lost the war.
The Rams got five total touchdowns from Corey Bertini and racked up 422 yards rushing in a 48-20 victory over Atlantic to close on the regular season at Ram Memorial Field on Friday. But with Council Bluffs Lewis Central's 38-10 victory over Creston, Glenwood falls just short of a trip to the state playoffs.

Trevor Frain raced 55 yards for a touchdown on Creston's opening play from scrimmage and Glenwood never seemed to recover in a 49-21 Class 3A, District 1 loss on Friday.
Creston (5-2) sprinted out to a 28-0 lead before Glenwood got on the board just before halftime to make it 28-7 at the break.
Fremont-Mills scored touchdowns on plays of 30, 33, 39, 43 and 68 yards as the Knights cruised to a 52-12 victory over Nishnabotna in Eight-Man, District 8 football Friday in Hamburg.
"This was a very up and down game for us," said Fremont-Mills coach Jeremy Christiansen. "We overwhelmed them at times but we also had a lot of breakdowns here and there."

Bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) is a blockage at the base of the bladder that reduces or prevents the flow of urine into the urethra, the tube that carries urine out of the body.
BOO; Lower urinary tract obstruction; Prostatism
Bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) can have many different causes, including:
Less common causes include:
This condition is most common in aging men. It is often caused by BPH. Bladder stones and bladder cancer are also more commonly seen in men than women. As a man ages, his chance of developing these diseases increases dramatically.
The symptoms of bladder outlet obstruction may vary, but can include:
If bladder outlet obstruction is suspected, your health care provider will take a thorough history of your problems. During a physical exam, your provider may find one or more of the following possible causes:
Tests may include:
Treatment of bladder outlet obstruction depends on the cause of the problem. For most cases, a tube called a catheter, inserted through the urethra into the bladder, will relieve the blockage.
Sometimes a suprapubic catheter (a tube placed through the belly area into the bladder) is needed to drain the bladder.
Long-term treatment of bladder outlet obstruction usually involves surgery. However, medical treatment options are available for many of the diseases that cause this problem. Discuss treatment options with your health care provider.
If diagnosed early, most causes of bladder outlet obstruction can be successfully treated. However, if the diagnosis is delayed, permanent damage to the bladder or kidneys can result.
If you have symptoms of bladder outlet obstruction, call your provider. Early diagnosis is important and can often lead to a simple and effective cure.

Curiosity snaps photo of partial solar eclipse -- from Mars
Using a filter on its camera, the Mars rover creates a pinhole-like image of the Red Planet's moon Phobos transiting the sun.
Seeing as Mars is much further away from the sun than Earth is, a solar eclipse would look different than it does here. Curiosity -- NASA's Mars rover -- caught an image of what this phenomenon looks like from the Red Planet.
While somewhat less impressive than what a solar eclipse looks like from Earth, appearing as a tiny black blip on a small white blip, this photo is still fascinating. Mars has two moons that orbit it, so the moon seen in this image is called Phobos.
To get this photo, Curiosity -- ever the clever rover -- covered its camera with a neutral density filter so as to protect its lens, according to the Atlantic. The result is a pinhole-like image similar to what we earthlings do when documenting photos of the eclipse from here. Apparently, this filter downgraded the Martian sunlight to one thousandth of its normal intensity.
Related stories
While solar eclipses are not something that Curiosity sees everyday, they are much more common than on Earth. Phobos is closer to its planet than we are to our moon and therefore transits the sun more often. According to the Atlantic, Phobos will create another partial solar eclipse that can be seen from the Gale Crater in one year from now.
Previous Mars' rovers also documented eclipses. Below is a video of one of Mars' moons transiting the sun, which was caught by the rover Opportunity in November 2010.

Stone and brickmason Donald Goldsborough got a ticket for running a red light in the left turn lane at the junction of U.S. Route 13 and Loockerman Street in Dover, Delaware, in 2010. Goldsborough paid the fine, but he thinks he should get his money back — along with the cash ponied up by every other driver ever popped at that spot. Why? The yellow light duration is too short for the road speed, he argues. It's not about the money, says Goldsborough: he says the short light endangers every driver entering the intersection, and he wants the signal adjusted. The state Supreme Court has agreed to accept Goldsborough's brief; the state has thirty days to respond. The Dover Post has the story here: ("Kent County contractor takes red light ticket to Delaware Supreme Court," by Antonio Prado).

Electronic Drug Registration and Listing Instructions
With the Food and Drug Administration Amendments Act of 2007 (Public Law 110-85) (FDAAA), as of June 1, 2009 registration and listing with Forms FDA 2656, 2657 and 2658 was discontinued. Electronic submission is now required unless a waiver is granted. Moving from a paper-based format to an electronic system has improved the timeliness and accuracy of the submissions.
To facilitate the submission of drug establishment registration and drug listing information (including labeling as specified under 21 CFR 207.25), FDA adopted the use of Extensible Markup Language (XML) files in the Structured Product Labeling (SPL) format. To transmit the SPL formatted submission firms must use the FDA's Electronic Submission Gateway (ESG).
New Information
Electronic Submissions Gateway
The ESG is an agency-wide entry point for various electronic submissions. The ESG authenticates and validates electronic submissions and routes it to the appropriate Center. In order to use the FDA's Electronic Submission Gateway firms must apply for an ESG Account. To obtain an ESG account go to: http://www.fda.gov/ForIndustry/ElectronicSubmissionsGateway/ucm114831.htm.
The process for establishing an ESG account may involve a delay before drug registration and listing information can be received electronically by FDA. FDA encourages owners and operators subject to registration and listing to establish their ESG accounts as soon as possible; establishing an ESG account 4-6 weeks in advance of the time when the owner or operator must register, list, or update a registration or listing will best ensure that electronic submissions are not delayed. SPL files including all image files are then placed in a folder and sent through the FDA Gateway. The name of the "center" and the "type of submission" are used to properly route the files. For electronic drug registration and listing, the center is "OC" and the type of submission is "SPL".
In order to complete an SPL submission, it is necessary to include firm's DUNS number. For more information visit: http://www.fda.gov/ForIndustry/DataStandards/StructuredProductLabeling/ucm162544.htm.
To create the SPL formatted XML file firms generally use a tool. Some firms may have a document management system which contains this functionality. Other firms will need to obtain a tool. There is a free tool available through FDA; XForm.
Xform is a software tool for creating XML format which provides user interface for the XML data. Xforms can be accessed via the link below: http://www.fda.gov/ForIndustry/DataStandards/StructuredProductLabeling/ucm189651.htm
SPL Xform Starter Package:
(http://www.fda.gov/downloads/ForIndustry/DataStandards/StructuredProductLabeling/UCM174434.zip). This package includes: step-by-step instructions for using SPL Xforms, the SPL Xforms software, and a link to SPL authoring tool vendors, conversion services, etc.
Additional SPL resources:
Technical specifications for creation of the electronic files are provided in the following technical documents, which can be found on the FDA Data Standards Council website:
- Structured Product Labeling Implementation Guide for FDA Drug Establishment Registration and Drug Listing
- Step-by-Step Instructions for Creating Structured Product Labeling (SPL) Files for Drug Establishment Registration and Drug Listing
- Structured Product Labeling Validation Procedures for Drug Establishment Registration and Drug Listing
Verify Submission Status
Please note that the accuracy of the data submitted on the SPL, will be validated. Possible errors associated with the submission, will generate a notification email with the detailed information on the type of error and will be sent to the firm's ESG account. If the SPL file fails validation you will receive an error report within 24-72 hours. At this time, companies will not receive automatic confirmation if their submission passes validation.
Registration information can be verified on Drug Establishment Current Registration Site (DECRS): http://www.fda.gov/Drugs/InformationOnDrugs/ucm135778.htm.
DECRS is updated daily. Questions can be directed to: firstname.lastname@example.com.
Labeler Code Request:
If a firm is already assigned a labeler code, the existing labeler code must be included on the Labeler Code Request SPL. This will enable the firm to submit electronic drug listing SPLs.

Telecare Improves Glycemic ControlPosted: Friday, May 14, 2004A group of investigators led by Dr Yogish Kudva of the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, USA, conducted a randomized trial and meta-analysis to evaluate the impact of telecare on glycemic control. Telecare involves modem transmission of glucometer data with clinician feedback. A total of 31 patients with type 1 diabetes that was inadequately controlled with intensive insulin treatment (HbA1c>7.8%) were randomized to telecare or a control (glucometer transmission without feedback) for 6 months. Randomized trials of telecare were identified in a systematic review of the literature and data on change in HbA1c were pooled from these studies for comparison. Source: Diabetes In Control |

Dave Sim's Last Girfriend: The Collected Letters & Faxes Of Dave Sim & Susan Alston (Simon & Schuster, July 2013) |
(from a letter to Susan Alston dated 19 March 2004, reprinted in 'Dave Sim's Collected Letters 2004')
Dave Sim's Last Girfriend: The Collected Letters & Faxes Of Dave Sim & Susan Alston (Simon & Schuster, July 2013) |
Of all thing even remotely Cerebus or Dave Sim related this book has got to be the most useless and disgusting. I wouldn't pay a dime for it.
David Birdsong
Considering Sim's work is about gender relations, a book from the POV of someone who was involved with him on that level has more than a little justification for existence.
Dave Kopperman
Well, in the same way Dave Sim probably felt that reading the letters of Ernest Hemingway or F. Scott Fitzgerald was necessary for him to better understand those personalities and their work, someone might feel that reading the letters of Dave Sim might do the same.
I'm not sure I will pony up the cash for this. I would definitely read correspondences between Dave and some fellow artists as they discussed their craft. I'm not sure I want more info about Dave's love life.
However, we have seen Dave say (and write) interesting things about many different topics. It would not be too surprising if in his letters and faxes (!) in this book, he shows plenty of wit and insight. Why not?
I just really like the burn at the end there.
Why not, indeed? Dave did publish two volumes of his letters himself, after all. How these compare in terms of their level of interest remains to be seen, of course, but the ones Dave published are of variable interest, so. . . . Anyway, sounds like Dave would prefer this book did not exist, but approved its publication nevertheless, so fans should leave it to their own consciences as to whether or not they want to buy it. (Were this being published against his express wishes, that would be another question, in my opinion.) I'll probably buy it, but I admit some ambivalence.
I'm looking forward to reading it.
I'm counting up how many people plan NOT to buy this book, and will be buying that many EXTRA copies in addition to my own. Awwww yeah. Touche!
I actually preordered this on Amazon as I was interested in learning more about "today's" Dave (whether it would help or not). Now it's delayed for another year...anyone know why??

In case you only read the Rays Tank, I'm required to inform you that the Cy Young's were announced last night, with David Price winning the prestigious award, edging the reigning MVP and C-Y recipient Justin Verlander!
Before you move on, read Jason Collette's excellent analysis.
Here's a breakdown of the top five vote-getters in the American League:
Player | 1st | 2nd | 3rd | 4th | 5th | Points |
David Price |
14 | 13 | 1 | 153 | ||
Justin Verlander | 13 | 13 | 2 | 149 | ||
Jered Weaver | 2 | 14 | 9 | 2 | 70 | |
Felix Hernandez | 5 | 10 | 6 | 41 | ||
Fernando Rodney | 1 | 5 | 4 | 8 | 38 |
David Price won with a four-point margin of victory, the closest since the infamous 1969 tie between Mike Cuellar and Denny McLain. The two second place votes for Weaver by the two writers from LA, and the single first place vote for Fernando Rodney, were enough to "save" the award for Price. (Voting details)
The American League
There is no arguing whether David Price produced a Cy Young caliber season. Key statistics put Price on par with previous award winners, and he matched well against Verlander:
Hernandez 2010 |
Verlander 2011 |
Verlander 2012 |
Price 2012 |
K rate | 23.2% | 25.8% | 25.0% | 24.5% | |
Record | 13-12 | 24-5 | 17-8 | 20-5 | |
fWAR | 6.0 | 8.3 | 7.6 | 5.1 |
Seared into the minds are multiple dominant post season performances from Justin Verlander: 3-1, 2.22 ERA, 9.29 K/9, .160 BAA, with a complete game shutout. However, BWAA voters cast their ballots at the end of the regular season - a decided advantage for Price, who had the lofty acknowledgment of the lowest ERA and highest win count in the bigs. If we are splitting hairs, Verlander had a slight statistical advantage, but Price's consistency down the stretch may have won the voters over.
David Price went 12-1 with a 2.26 ERA over his final 18 starts, and it is these last 18 that showcased his ability. The Rays ace finished the season with only 59 walks, comparable to Verlander's 60. Divide that in half, and you see incredible strikeout-to-walk numbers. In his first 13 starts, Price notched 78 K's and walked 30. In his last 18 starts, 29 walks and had 127 strikeouts, allowing three runs or fewer in 17 of those games.
Watch Price's interview below, from the humble smiles - to the "noodles" - to the well deserved love for Jim Hickey.
The National League
R.A. Dickey won his Cy Young by a landslide, becoming the first knuckleballer to win the award, and only the fourth nominated. In the opening lines of his autobiography, Dickey wrote, "I will never be a Hall of Famer and will never lead the league in strikeouts." (h/t mlb.com) - Shows what he knew, pitching without an ulnar collateral ligament in his throwing arm, R-A-D's 230 strikeouts was the National League best. Watch his also-humble interview below.
You can listen to similar phone interviews via ESPN, including Dickey getting choked up while remembering his wife's encouragement through the hard times in his career, and Price discussing the responsibility of being your teams's Ace and learning from James Shields.
- The Montreal Rays? In light of the scandal that is the Miami Marlins, "my boy" Keith Olbermann makes a modest proposal for the baseball to return to Montreal. Olbermann has long been championing the unsustainability of baseball in Florida, and sees both franchises leaving the state of Florida in the next eight years - starting with the Rays, given our chances of finding a solution to the stadium/attendance dilemma.
- Nate Silver lays out the statistical argument for why Rookie of the Year Mike Trout should rightly receive the AL MVP, set to be announced tonight.
- Baseball Prospectus: Alfonso Soriano is good again, but this time it's because he actually received coaching - which he hadn't before. Sahadev Sharma explains.
- Baseball Prospectus: Ben Lindberg wonders why no one seems to get caught stealing anymore.
- Finally, your moment of Zlen: Zlatan Ibrahimovic's bicycle kick from yesterday's England-Sweden friendly.

ZeroFC | Winter Climb Date Climbed: Jan 18, 2014 | |
Winter season solo ascent. Second weekend in a row to make the climb - Weekend prior had to turn at station 8 because of wind conditions over 110km/h that would not let up. Yesterday was successful. Yesterdays conditions in terms of wind was much better but temperatures were below -15c before taking wind chill into consideration which showed temps of 35c. Lots of hard snow/ice above station 8. Knowing how to self arrest is crucial. It was more challenging than I expected. Done in a 24hr period. | ||

Climbed Fuji-Chan via the Gotemba Route with one experienced Mountaineer and 2 inexperienced hikers (all Japanese). Left at 7PM to hike under a full moon in hopes to reach the summit by sunrise. Unfortunately, I was the only person in our party that was able to summit to watch the sunrise. We were on the trail for 18 hours total due to the inexperienced hikers needing lots of rest stops. Super fun, although somewhat of a long slog... | ||

One day climb during the first week of September 2008. I remember the weather was terrible at the summit with little viability and temperature at approx -10C.

Arrived at the Kawaguchiko 5th Station in the late evening, and tried to find a open room at the hut lodges within the station. Decided to use the remaining hours of daylight and head up to prepare to view the sunrise from the summit. We stopped at the 8th Station and turned around when the winds on the summit picked up speed and it began to look dangerous continuing upward. I will have to get the summit next time. Can't wait to try some of the other Japanese mountains. | ||

Mt. Fuji winter solo ascent via the Yoshidaguchi trail. Starting from all the way down in the town of Fujiyoshida. The hike was over a 3 day period requiring on-mountain camping at Umagaeshi and then somewhere below the 8th station for a final push to the summit.

I must have been 11 or so while my dad was stationed in Japan at Yokosuka Naval Base. I climbed with my Aunt who came to visit in '85. I will have to look back at some of the pictures to see if I can nail down a date. I remember it was pretty cool, but didn't have any idea how tall it really is. I still have my "Fuji Stick" walking stick with all the stamps on it. My father in law is now stationed in Yokosuka and I may have to plan a trip to "visit" and climb again as an adult. | ||

Tried to climb from Fujinomiya but couldn't find any trail after half a day hiking towards Fuji. Slept the night in the forest and went by bus the next morning to 5th station. Very intersting experience to be on a mountain top of this height and that number of people. | ||

ABIDJAN, Ivory Coast - A crowd stampeded after leaving a New Year's fireworks show early Tuesday in Ivory Coast's commercial center, killing 61 people - many of them youths - and injuring more than 200, rescue workers said.
The death toll was expected to rise, the officials said.
Thousands had gathered at the Felix Houphouet Boigny Stadium in Abidjan's Plateau district to see the fireworks. After the show, the crowds poured onto the Boulevard de la Republic by the Hotel Tiama at about 1 a.m., said Col. Issa Sako of the fire department rescue team.
"The flood of people leaving the stadium became a stampede which led to the deaths of more than 60 and injured more than 200," Sako told Ivory Coast state TV.
Most of those killed were between 8 and 15 years old, he said.
Desperate parents went to the city morgue, the hospital and to the stadium to try to find children who are still missing.
Mamadou Sanogo was searching for his 9-year-old son, Sayed.
"I have just seen all the bodies, but I cannot find my son," said a tearful Sanogo. "I don't know what to do."

The Kathmandu Valley Water Supply Management Board (KVWSMB) is going to establish 30 monitoring centres throughout the Kathmandu Valley to curb rampant groundwater extraction. The centres, which are coming into operation by mid-May 2011, will monitor the quality and quantity of groundwater.
Both individuals and institutions that extract groundwater for commercial purposes will need to apply for a license from the KVWSMB after the monitoring centres are established. There are currently over 500 tubewells operating in the Kathmandu Valley. However, only 100 of them are registered at the board. Kathmandu Upatyaka Khanepani Limited (KUKL) already extracts a large amount of groundwater from 70 tube wells and supplying the water to its consumers. According to KUKL, the daily water demand in the Kathmandu Valley at present is 320 million litres but the supply is only around 70 million litres in the dry season and 120 million litres in the wet season.

Via Cosby Sweaters:
Garrett McNamara landed himself in the Guinness World Records when it was confirmed that he rode a 78-foot wave in Nazare, Portugal in 2011. That wave was insanely huge and it looks like Garrett may have outdone himself on Jan. 28 back at the same surf spot. It isn't confirmed yet, but it looks like Garrett may have ridden the largest wave ever by a human and initial speculation has the wave clocking in at a mere 100 feet.
According to Surfer Today:
The image captured by Tó Mané, one of the best surf photographers in Europe, is simply breathtaking. Garrett McNamara is seen riding what seems to be a 100-foot wave.
Although is far from clear, as the shot is taken from an upper angle, the ride is unbelievable. Tó Mané freezes the moment when McNamara descends the face of the wave.
Garrett McNamara. Nazaré. Today. Perfect twitter.com/ciscosalvador/…
— Francisco Salvador (@ciscosalvador) January 28, 2013
Here is Garrett's 78-foot wave which he rode last year:
WOW that takes a lot of guts with a side order of insanity
Yea, and I Skied a 100 ft Mountain!
Well, Christ, if it weren't edited every 1/10th of a second it may be something to behold. As it was presented here it didn't stay with one camera long enough for me to enjoy or appreciate it. No consideration for the viewer's appreciation at all.
Whoa! We surfers have "aloha" and compassion for all people, so a little more respect is in due order - for this "Mister McNamara" (to you). Wouldn't ya' think? Are you very land/ice locked? It's really better to be better in your heart, AYE??? Don't come to Hawai'i with that attitude. DUDE.
Well put alohaland!
Crumby video, not the surfers, the guy taking the video.
"...and initial speculation has the wave clocking in at a MERE 100 feet." Well I guess that's it then. Proper English grammar has officially been pronounced dead.
