Applications for the Sharp Zaurus
You just got your Zaurus and you are very proud of it. You tried every single application, then even typed some commands in the terminal, like uname -a, ping localhost and ifconfig to prove to yourself that it really is a GNU/Linux machine in the palm of your hand. You even know where most of the keys are but still may be looking for the pipe (hint: read more.sbc.co.jp/slj/doc/pdf/SL5000KeyAssign.pdf to find out that bar = Shift-Space).
Sweet. But now what should you do? After the initial fun, you may be wondering what you can actually do with a machine you don't know how to use, and for which you think no third-party software exists. This article teaches you how to install software on the Zaurus and presents some killer applications you should know about.
First and foremost, you must load the Zaurus with your important information; otherwise, you will have to carry the Zaurus and your former PDA in your pocket, or worse, you will have to keep your Zaurus at home because it would be useless for your everyday life.
The first use for any handheld is personal information management (PIM), such as storing phone numbers, calendar entries, etc. In fact, the Palm was initially built around these functions, and if you have purchased a Palm, you probably depend on it to access your personal information.
Just take your Palm or your cell phone, and thanks to IrDA support, you can beam your data directly to the Zaurus, if its ROM supports IrDA. Launch Applications --> System info --> Version. If you see ROM version 1.1x, IrDA will work. If not, you will have to update your ROM with version 1.1x or higher, as explained below. This may seem like an obvious suggestion, but sending by infrared is the easiest way to transfer your data.
On your Palm, open the relevant application and click on the first tab and "Beam data" (calendar), "Beam business card" (phone book) or "Beam category" (phone book) should you want to send every business card at once.
On your cell phone, these steps will depend on the cell phone model. Please read your cell phone manual to find out how you can activate its infrared port to send data. It must 1) have an infrared port, 2) support IrDA and 3) conform to the VCS/VCF norm to send telephone numbers or calendar entries. Any recent cell phone (like the Siemens S35) will be fine.
On your Zaurus, now launch Settings --> Beam receive application and watch your data being received to the new handheld. Do not forget to click on "Add to Address book" or "Add to Calendar" when prompted to include the received information in the relevant applications.
If you have a Windows machine, or if you use Outlook as your PIM, there is another possibility. Just install intellisync, which is provided for free on your software disk. It can synchronize with Outlook or Palm Desktop, which means it will convert your Outlook or Palm contacts to Zaurus contacts.
If you choose the intellisync method to get your data, you need to send it to the Zaurus. If you prefer another method, you need to back up this data on your PC anyway.
Look at the Zaurus cradle; you will notice it has a USB port. We will make it work perfectly with the Linux kernel after some simple steps.
First, you must know that the version of your Zaurus ROM dictates which synchronizing software you can use with your PC. Run Applications --> System Info --> Version to find which ROM your Zaurus is running. Read "Updating the ROM" below if you want to use a specific version. If you cannot see any ROM version information on there, then you are running a 1.02.
Go to more.sbc.co.jp/slj/download.asp to download the synchronizing software you need. The installation instructions are provided with the software. You may have to patch your kernel to compile a USB module.
Should you need more help, an excellent step-by-step guide is available. It includes help to make your Zaurus connect to the Internet using your computer connection.
The synchronizing software on your PC will let you save data every time you want to. It is recommended that you back up your agenda on a daily basis. You can then use desktop software or your computer to maintain it as well as your Zaurus and have both versions always synchronized.
Now that you have your Zaurus connection working, please back up your data immediately because we are going to test all kinds of software. You don't want to lose the PIM data you carefully put on your Zaurus, do you?
Zaurus SL 5500
I liked very much everything that you wrote in this article, but what about of ROM v.3.13?,I woul like to know if it functions. How to install the openssh and where I meet the xcopilot.
Another thing I´m interested is in how to make a backup copy, via rsync with the Kurumin, that is a brazilian version of Linux, very similar to Ubuntu. The Kurumin don´t detect the USB port.
Thans a lot for your help
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.

There is so very much written about the impact (or not) of diet on health in general and cancer in specific. It is easy, especially soon after diagnosis, to become very caught up in all of this--worrying about every mouthful we eat and its connection to health. As far as I know, there is actually very little proven about any direct diet/cancer associations (beyond the obvious about nitrates and all the chemicals in processed foods). The bottom line, per most doctors, continues to be more or less what your mother hopefully taught you: eat a balanced diet with lots of fruits and vegetables.
Here is a link to a good booklet published by the American Institute for Cancer Research:

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.—Two members of the Albuquerque City Council say they want the city to consider changing how it oversees the Police Department.
Councilors Dan Lewis and Don Harris are proposing a study to consider ways to revamp the existing system under which a commission and an office handle citizens' complaints against police officers.
The Albuquerque Journal (http://bit.ly/VfQean) reports that activists and relatives of people shot by police question the effectiveness of the Police Oversight Commission.
The department is currently the subject of a federal civil rights investigation.

Episode Summaries
Be My Friend, Tyra!
First aired March 10, 2010
The fourteenth season began with 32 models vying for 14 spots. The contestants were asked to create a social networking-styled profile,
, including a profile photo and a video of their walk. Angelea, who failed to make the cut in
Cycle 12
, returned. A final picture required them to take inspiration from current and past top models. Gabrielle impressed Mr. Jay with her knowledge of the industry, while Tatianna was castigated for electing to emulate an actress (
Megan Fox
) rather than a model. When decision time dawned, Tyra revealed that only 12 had been selected, and they would travel to New York City where they would meet the thirteenth contestant.
Upon arrival, they met Perez Hilton and began a tour of the Madame Tussauds Wax Museum. Later, they were introduced to Ren, who had been scouted by Tyra and the production staff. Makeovers were administered shortly after. Brenda and Anslee was upset to have her hair cut short and Krista was unhappy that her hair was slicked back. The girls moved into their house and disagreements erupted between Alasia, Anslee, Angelea, Brenda and Marco. They were then taken to their first photo shoot, where it was revealed that each would be posing nude aside from one article of clothing and continued until the following episode.
Special guests:
Sally Hershberger, Anastasia Izaard, Joanna Konjevod
Makeover Madness
First aired March 17, 2010
The girls were required to model only one article of clothing or accessory, which they were to select from a full-dressed mannequin. The girls' choices were:
Article of clothing
At panel,
Editor-at-Large André Leon Talley joined as a permanent judge. In the first judging, Jessica became the brightest star of the bunch, praised by the judges for creatively using her whole body to create a strong photo (Tyra was admittedly shocked, and called Jessica a "chameleon"). Angelea also impressed the judges by producing a very feminine shot, although in person she acted less than classy. Ren and Brenda impressed the judges with the fire in their eyes, while Simone's good skin was highly praised by the judges.
Anslee successfully sold the clutch she had chosen, while Tatianna was complimented for smiling with her eyes. Raina was heavily praised by the judges for her photo, creating the look of a courtesan. Alexandra and Naduah both failed to produce an amazing photo; while Krista, Alasia and Gabrielle were deemed the worst of the worst, with Gabrielle's photo was called "forgettable". Tyra, Nigel and guest judge Sally Hershberger considered Alasia"s photo to be weak, although André believed it to be "raw and bold." Despite this, Alasia landed with Gabrielle in the bottom two. In the end, André's point of view regarding Alasia's photo won over the other judges, and Gabrielle was sent home.

The girls met Ms. J for a runway teach about pacing and removing coats while walking. They were then challenged to walk down a busy Manhattan intersection while practicing what they have just learned. The next day, the girls walked in a Rachel Roy fashion show at Lower Manhattan"s Surrogate's Courthouse, where they had to time their walks perfectly in order to avoid two swinging pendulums on the runway. Some girls struggled with their timing, most notably Alexandra"who tripped down the stairs, got knocked off the runway by a pendulum, injured her knee, and inadvertently tore her dress. Brenda won the challenge and got to keep her dress. Jessica, who was called first at the previous judging, also got to keep her dress.
The week"s photo shoot required the girls to shine through wind and rain to advertise a fast-disappearing perfume. At panel, Raina, Marco, Anslee and Tatianna were deemed as the best. Nigel deemed Ren"s photo as an advertisement for swine flu, while Naduah"s classic, ad-style photograph was seen as contrary to her edgy look. In the end, it"s Naduah who was eliminated.

Let's Dance!
First aired March 24, 2010
The girls rode a "Fab Bus" and received a surprise visit from
Cycle 3
contestant Toccara Jones, who put their fashion knowledge to the test. The Blue Team consisting of Alexandra, Angelea, Jessica, Krista and Simone (together with Raina who joined them in their reward) won a $500 Bluefly gift certificate and the opportunity to audition for Bluefly"s Spring Collection. The Bluefly executives were most impressed by Simone"s go-see and she won the campaign and a $2500 gift certificate. Meanwhile, the losing team had to help take inventory in the Bluefly.com warehouse.
This week"s photo shoot drew its inspiration from various dance genres. Alasia excelled, while Anslee, Brenda, Ren and Simone failed to find their rhythm.
Dance Genre
At panel, Alasia"s outfit was unanimously lambasted, but her photo received universal applause. Upon receiving critique, Ren expressed her unhappiness because of all the drama happening in the house. With this, combined with her unsightly photograph, landed her in the bottom two with Brenda, who also have a weak photo and for still not embracing her makeover. Despite initially stating her desire to continue, Ren then revealed she wanted to check out from the competition because she just wanted to tell her mother what she feels about her. But this was not needed, as Tyra handed the last photo to Brenda, telling her that "another transformation" will take place.

America's Next Top Vampire
First aired March 31, 2010
Sally Hershberger visited the girls, and revealed that the "transformation" that Tyra announced last week is that Sally will be cutting Brenda's hair shorter, much to Brenda's dismay. The models were then taken to the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre to learn about improv. They were each given a scenario and a respective emotion to carry out the action in. Back at the house, Brenda received an edgier 80s-inspired cut similar to a faux-hawk, which Brenda found difficult to adjust to. During the haircut, a majority of the girls watched in interest and while most of them felt pity for Brenda, Angelea found the whole thing amusing, especially when Sally Hershberger used intimidating-looking clippers on the sides of Brenda's hair. The girls went to Times Square and received their challenge from the newest CoverGirl spokesmodel, Dania Ramirez, who instructed them to do voice-overs for a CoverGirl Clean commercial. None of the girls did well, except Tatianna, whose playful commercial allowed her personality to shine through, and she won a CoverGirl shoot for
Magazine and CoverGirl.com.
The models posed as vampires in a bloody bathtub at the photo shoot. White-out contact lenses that they had to wear left them virtually blind. Although she found trouble and pain while putting on her lenses, Brenda did quite well at the shoot with her simple pose but haunting and sexy and the same time. The judges slated Anslee for giving excuses for her poor performances and in the end it was Simone and Anslee who landed in the bottom two, but Simone"s contrived posing in her photos sent her packing.

Smile and Pose
First aired April 7, 2010
The models received letters from home to cheer them up. The next day, they arrived at Roosevelt Island, where they were tasked to create chemistry between themselves and a male model, who turned out to be Nigel. Later, they met comedian Ross Matthews and their challenge required them to model with him and produce a good shot with only five frames. Jessica won and received a pair of $6500 Jude Frances diamond earrings as well as immunity at panel, while Alasia (who had the best photo the previous week) received a $5000 ring.
The photo shoot took place at New York's Garment District - Canal Street, Chinatown. The girls were dressed up ala fashion faux pas to raise awareness about the detriment of counterfeit fashion products. Jessica, Angelea and Krista wowed Jay in their performance, while Alexandra"s confidence took a beating when she received mediocre feedback.
At judging, Jessica received the most praise, as the judges were extremely impressed with her creativity in producing a great shot. Nigel also commented that every single part of her shot absolutely tells a story about fake, while Andre praised her ability to jumps, strike various poses, and make her face look great at the same time. Other girls also got some praise, including Angelea, Krista, Anslee, Brenda, Alasia, and Raina.
Alexandra's dour picture landed her in the bottom two along with Tatianna, whose film from week to week was deemed weak, which made it difficult for Tyra to choose a best photo (despite having at least one great photo to show at panel). In the end, Tatianna was sent home due to her inability to consistently produce great photos without just lucking into them.

New York Women!
First aired April 14, 2010
The girls visited Ann Shoket at the
Magazine headquarters, and Alasia"s insistence on taking a shower beforehand caused them to be late. Ann taught them about how to dress in order to flatter all kinds of body types. They were then given 5 minutes to dress themselves up, and as a surprise, all of them got to keep the outfits they chose. The next night, the girls were invited to Tinsley Mortimer"s launch party of her new line of handbags, and were given the opportunity to mingle with the guests as well as to have some one-on-one time with Tinsley. Jessica"s sunny personality and cute outfit impressed Tinsley the most and she won a photo shoot in Seventeen Magazine, which she shared with Brenda and Raina (since Jessica was first call-out at the previous judging, she got to choose two people instead of one).
The photo shoot took place in the subway and at Grand Central - 42nd Street station, which was also their first CoverGirl assignment. The girls had to portray different facets of New York women.

At panel, Angelea
received the first call-out, after three second call-outs. Krista and Anslee met with very positive reviews, while Alexandra and Raina was a bit criticized for being playing safe. André harshly criticized Jessica"s choice of shoes, and her combative responses displeased the judges. Alasia"s bad photo and lack of focus and Brenda"s lack of chemistry in front of the camera and looking old in her photos put them in the bottom two. In the end, a teary Alasia was saved again as Brenda was eliminated.

Big Hair Day
First aired April 21, 2010
The girls received a surprise visit from model Pat Cleveland and fashion designer Whitney Port, who dolled them up for a night out at Lucky Cheng"s drag queen cabaret. There, they met Ms. J, who introduced them to their runway challenge. Krista"s personality on the runway won the audience"s vote and she was declared the winner. She and Angelea won specially designed pieces from Whitney Port"s collection.
While leaving for the photo shoot, the other girls finally had enough of Alasia's tardiness, and decided to leave her (with the elevator hanging up on Alasia, she resorted to use the stairs instead). The girls were split into two teams - Angelea, Anslee, Krista and Raina with their mentor Weaven Steven, and Alasia, Alexandra and Jessica with Derek J. They had to model in dresses made entirely out of hair, with the other team will try to distract them. Krista embodied Grace Jones and she produced a stellar film. Alexandra's performance was once again deemed lukewarm.
At panel, a shepherd arrived with sheep, which led to the revelation that the final six girls would be going to New Zealand for the remainder of the competition. Krista is universally praised for her strong photo; Tyra commends her for her very strong film. Angelea and Raina were praised too, while Jessica was praised again for her ability to jump, move and make her face look great at the same time. Alasia's shot was deemed purely admirable, though she was criticized for playing safe in her film. Anslee was praised for her strong face in her shot but is slated for looking stiff, while Alexandra was castigated for her awkward pose and proportions in her photo.
Krista's strong performance earned her the first call-out, and she won a surprise first-class ticket to New Zealand. Anslee and Alexandra ended up in the bottom two; Anslee for not modeling with her entire body, and Alexandra for seemingly lacking the desire to be in the competition. In the end, Anslee was sent packing as Alexandra joined the other five girls bound for New Zealand. After Anslee's elimination, Tyra allowed Krista to choose another girl to join her on her first-class flight; Krista chose Angelea.

Welcome to New Zealand
First aired April 28, 2010
After an exhausting 22-hour flight, the girls arrived in Auckland, then were taken to Mount Eden and greeted by a traditional M?ori Haka, after which they were immediately sent for their go-sees challenge, with almost no time to prepare. Alasia, Angelea and Krista received positive reviews from the designers, while Alexandra, Jessica and Raina received mixed feedback. Only Alexandra, Angelea and Jessica made it back on time, with Angelea being deemed the best, having booked all six of her go-sees. She and Krista won an assortment of designer pieces.
At their next photo shoot, the girls were challenged to wear the same black Lloyd Klein dress, and make the best out of that dress (with sheep as their background). At panel, when Angelea's photo was going to be discussed, she showed Tyra and the judges a "little club thingy". Krista showed up another powerful photo, but Alexandra's photo was deemed as one of the best in the History of America's Next Top Model and it won her the second best photo. Raina's photo was deemed as "told you thousands of tale" by Nigel, while Angelea's photo was criticized for showing herself too exposed the dress rather than herself.
Alasia and Jessica was called as the bottom two, both of them producing poor photos, but it was Alasia who was sent home, and Jessica was spared.

Hobbits vs. Models
First aired May 5, 2010
Tension rose in the house when Angelea felt that her closest ally, Krista, was becoming closer to Alexandra than her. Jessica accidentally burnt a taco, setting the toaster on fire.
The girls arrived in Matamata, at the "Hobbiton" movie set for
The Lord of the Rings
film trilogy and met actress Sarah McLeod, who introduced them to their photo shoot challenge - they only had five frames to pose at the doorway of the Hobbit House. Krista excelled, but it is the latter who won $3,000 worth of designer clothes.
Tyra was the photographer for this week"s photo shoot, which required the girls to pose with shadows. Alexandra impressed by pushing through despite having a runny nose. Krista knowledge of her angles earned her a third consecutive first call-out, tying the record set by
Joanie Dodds
Cycle 6
Tyra didn't feel enough enthusiasm coming from Raina, and she landed in the bottom two for the first time. But it was Jessica"s lack of high fashion ability which caused her to be eliminated.

Ugly-Pretty Woman
First aired May 12, 2010
André gave the girls a surprise visit to advise them about the fashion industry, as well as shed some light on his early career beginnings, including working for
Andy Warhol
The girls packed up and flew for Queenstown, New Zealand for their next photo shoot, but were surprised when they hear Miss J"s voice over the PA instructing them to walk down the plane aisles as part of a runway challenge. Alexandra impressed the Jays by bringing heels on board the plane, but Krista ultimately won her fourth challenge. She was rewarded with $2000 worth of
Boh Runga
jewelry and the chance to walk at New Zealand Fashion Week.
This week"s shoot required the girls to portray "ugly-pretty". All the girls found a certain degree of success, and their photos similarly received both praise and criticism from different judges. Krista"s outstanding photo earned her yet another first call-out. Alexandra's photo got all-loved by the judges, but she is still looked "pretty-pretty" when they asked her to be "ugly-pretty". Raina was castigated for only doing well in higher-end shoots, Angelea's photo was considered average and generally bad by all the judges. Tyra mentioned models from past cycles that have gone on to have successful careers such as Katarzyna, Fatima, Anya and Mollie Sue while talking about Angelea and where she would go when she went home. In the end, Tyra handed Raina the last photo, eliminating Alexandra and Angelea.

America's Next Top Model Is...
First aired May 12, 2010
The final two girls took a helicopter ride to an overnight stay at Hurakia Lodge on Rakino Island. Miss J. arrived and handed them their CoverGirl commercial scripts. The next day, the girls shot both their commercial and CoverGirl print ad. Krista blanked out during her commercial and was forced to use cue cards, but was praised for laughing off her mistakes instead of breaking down. Raina got her lines out without much fuss, but completed to deliver believability.
The next day, both girls impressed Nigel during their Seventeen magazine cover shoot. When they returned to the house, Tyra surprised them with visits from their families; they proceeded to take a "Top Model" family portrait. After this, the final two proceeded to the Auckland Museum for a rock and roll circus inspired Anna Sui fashion show. It was also revealed that the past 4 eliminated finalists - Alexandra, Angelea, Jessica and Alasia - would also be walking with them. After the show, Tyra had some one-on-one time with Krista and Raina, where both shared their motivations for winning.
At the final judging, Raina"s walk was commended for being both commercial and high fashion at the same time, albeit slightly cheesy, whilst Krista"s smile and freshness were appreciated. Their CoverGirl print ads also received mixed reviews - Krista's showed a classic Covergirl look with a modern twist, while Raina"s stunning photo drew flak for failing to smile with her eyes. Only Krista's CoverGirl commercial fully to fully impressed.
While discussing the final two"s overall portfolios throughout the season, the judges deemed Raina as a more sophisticated and edgy model who would do well on the runway, while Krsita was the beauty model who would make waves internationally as a photo model.
In the end, Krista was crowned the winner of the fourteenth cycle of America"s Next Top Model.

Combining their responsibility to the community and their desire to be environmentally conscious, they have a program to reduce (or better yet, re-use) what they would normally dispose of... Early Childhood Resources has eliminated almost all of their cardboard waste by implementing commercial cardboard shredding equipment in its facilities to convert cardboard destined for the landfill into some of the best packing material available.
Competition typically demands lower costs and with it, labor intense jobs are being exported faster and faster every year. Early Childhood Resources, being committed to "Maximum Value," balances the demands from the marketplace with the practicality and social values of finding ways to maximize the capabilities of those in our community with developmental disabilities, and want to work! The program provides a stimulating and developmentally enriching environment. These individuals gain valuable social and work skills while earning competitive wages, and creating "Maximum Value" in their products.

CommentsRe: The Daily Word in Wikipedia shuts down, Roundhouse legislation kicks off and McNuggets get sexual
You said athletes [ Wed Oct 27 2010 10:43 AM ]
not sports teams. If you cannot make a difference between the two there is no hope for you. The Isotopes are not really a "professional sports team" by any stretch of the imagination. Just because the Dodgers pluck a player out once a year for garbage-time innings doesn't make them a secondary MLB team. Take a drive 6 hours north or west and you'll encounter plenty of organizations representing each sport to meet your criteria. |

MongodbLogger is a alternative logger for Rails 3, which log all requests of you application into MongoDB database. It:
- simple to integrate into existing Rails 3 application;
- allow to store all logs from web cluster into one scalable storage - MongoDB;
- flexible schema of MongoDB allow to store and search any information from logs;
- web panel allow filter logs, build graphs using MapReduce by information from logs;
Add the following to your Gemfile then refresh your dependencies by executing "bundle install" (or just simple "bundle"):
gem "mongodb_logger"
Add the following line to your ApplicationController:
include MongodbLogger::Base
Add MongodbLogger settings to database.yml for each environment in which you want to use the MongodbLogger. The MongodbLogger will also look for a separate mongodb_logger.yml or mongoid.yml (if you are using mongoid) before looking in database.yml. In the mongodb_logger.yml and mongoid.yml case, the settings should be defined without the 'mongodb_logger' subkey.
File: database.yml:
adapter: postgresql
database: my_app_development
username: postgres
database: my_app # required (the only required setting)
capsize: <%= 10.megabytes %> # default: 250MB
host: localhost # default: localhost
port: 27017 # default: 27017
replica_set: true # default: false - Adds retries for ConnectionFailure during voting for replica set master
safe_insert: false # default: false - Enable/Disable safe inserts (wait for insert to propagate to all nodes)
application_name: my_app # default: Rails.application
disable_file_logging: false # default: false - disable logging into filesystem (only in MongoDB)
collection: some_name # default: Rails.env + "_log" - name of MongoDB collection
File: mongodb_logger.yml:
database: my_app
capsize: <%= 10.megabytes %>
host: localhost
port: 27017
replica_set: true
After success instalation of gem, a new MongoDB document (record) will be created for each request on your application, by default will record the following information: Runtime, IP Address, Request Time, Controller, Method, Action, Params, Application Name and All messages sent to the logger. The structure of the MongoDB document looks like this:
'action' : action_name,
'application_name' : application_name (rails root),
'controller' : controller_name,
'ip' : ip_address,
'messages' : {
'info' : [ ],
'debug' : [ ],
'error' : [ ],
'warn' : [ ],
'fatal' : [ ]
'params' : { },
'path' : path,
'request_time' : date_of_request,
'runtime' : elapsed_execution_time_in_milliseconds,
'url' : full_url,
'method' : request method (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, OPTIONS)
Beyond that, if you want to add extra information to the base of the document (let's say something like user_id on every request that it's available), you can just call the Rails.logger.add_metadata method on your logger like so (for example from a before_filter):
# make sure we're using the MongodbLogger in this environment
if Rails.logger.respond_to?(:add_metadata)
Rails.logger.(:user_id => @current_user.id)
The Front End
To setup web interface in you Rails application, first of all create autoload file in you Rails application
File: you_rails_app/config/initializers/mongodb_logger.rb (example)
require 'mongodb_logger/server' # required
# this secure you web interface by basic auth, but you can skip this, if you no need this
MongodbLogger::Server.use Rack::Auth::Basic do |username, password|
[username, password] == ['admin', 'password']
and just mount MongodbLogger::Server in rails routes:
File: you_rails_app/config/routes.rb
mount MongodbLogger::Server.new, :at => "/mongodb"
Now you can see web interface by url "http://localhost:3000/mongodb"
If you've installed MongodbLogger as a gem and want running the front end without Rails application, you can do it by this command:
mongodb_logger_web config.yml
where config.yml is config, similar to config of Rails apps, but without Rails.env. Example:
database: app_logs_dev
host: localhost
port: 27017
collection: development_log # set for see development logs
parameter "collection" should be set, if your set custom for your Rails application or start this front end not for production enviroment (by default taken "production_log" collection, in Rails application gem generate "#Rails.env_log" collection, if it is not defined in config).
It's a thin layer around rackup so it's configurable as well:
mongodb_logger_web config.yml -p 8282
Passenger, Unicorn, Thin, etc.
Using Passenger, Unicorn, Thin, etc? MongodbLogger ships with a config.ru
you can use. See guide:
- Passenger Apache: http://www.modrails.com/documentation/Users%20guide%20Apache.html#_deploying_a_rack_based_ruby_application
- Passenger Nginx: http://www.modrails.com/documentation/Users%20guide%20Nginx.html#deploying_a_rack_app
- Unicorn: http://unicorn.bogomips.org
- Thin: http://code.macournoyer.com/thin/usage
Don't forget setup MONGODBLOGGERCONFIG env variable, which provide information about MongodbLogger config. Example starting with unicorn:
MONGODBLOGGERCONFIG=examples/server_config.yml unicorn
Querying via the Rails console
And now, for a couple quick examples on getting ahold of this log data... First, here's how to get a handle on the MongoDB from within a Rails console:
>> db = Rails.logger.mongo_connection
=> #<Mongo::DB:0x007fdc7c65adc8 @name="monkey_logs_dev" ... >
>> collection = db[Rails.logger.mongo_collection_name]
=> #<Mongo::Collection:0x007fdc7a4d12b0 @name="development_log" .. >
Once you've got the collection, you can find all requests for a specific user (with id):
>> cursor = collection.find(:user_id => '12355')
=> #<Mongo::Cursor:0x1031a3e30 ... >
>> cursor.count
=> 5
Find all requests that took more that one second to complete:
>> collection.find({:runtime => {'$gt' => 1000}}).count
=> 3
Find all order#show requests with a particular order id (id=order_id):
>> collection.find({"controller" => "order", "action"=> "show", "params.id" => order_id})
Find all requests with an exception that contains "RoutingError" in the message or stack trace:
>> collection.find({"messages.error" => /RoutingError/})
Find all requests with errors:
>> collection.find({"is_exception" => true})
Find all requests with a request_date greater than '11/18/2010 22:59:52 GMT'
>> collection.find({:request_time => {'$gt' => Time.utc(2010, 11, 18, 22, 59, 52)}})

Stephenson at wedding ceremony of Sting and Trudie Styler, 1992
Born | Pamela Helen Stephenson 4 December 1949 Takapuna, Auckland, New Zealand |
Occupation | Actress, clinical psychologist |
Years active | 1971–present |
Spouse(s) |

Children | 3 daughters |
Pamela Helen Stephenson Connolly (born 4 December 1949) is a New Zealand clinical psychologist, writer and actress who is now a resident in both the United Kingdom and United States. She is best known for her work as an actress and comedian during the 1980s. She has written several books, which include a biography of her husband Billy Connolly, and presented a psychology-based interview show called Shrink Rap on British television.
Early life[edit]
This section of a biography of a living person does not include any references or sources. (March 2011) |
Stephenson was born in Takapuna, Auckland, New Zealand. She moved to Australia in 1964 and attended the University of New South Wales and then Australia's National Institute of Dramatic Art, from which she graduated in 1971. Stephenson was a regular cast member on television series Ryan. She moved to London in 1976, where she continued to perform.
Comedy and acting[edit]
Stephenson had begun acting on television by 1972. In 1973–74, she starred as Julie King on the Australian TV series Ryan. After numerous television and film appearances, including acting the role of Josephine in the 1977 ABC production of Malcolm Williamson's opera The Violins of Saint-Jacques, she had another recurring role as Iris Reade in the UK series Funny Man (1981). Probably her most widely recognized television role was in the classic 1980s UK comedy television sketch show Not The Nine O'Clock News, alongside Rowan Atkinson, Mel Smith and Griff Rhys Jones (1979–82). Her parodies included Kate Bush in a song called "Oh England, My Leotard", and Olivia Newton-John in a song called "Typical bloody typical". She also had a small part in three episodes of the British TV police drama series The Professionals. Her personal contribution as a comedian added to the success of Not the Nine O'Clock News and led to a collaboration with comedy and satire writers Mike Lepine and Mark Leigh. This spawned a book, How To Be A Complete Bitch, and a board game. In 1982–83, she starred in the West End production of Joseph Papp's version of The Pirates of Penzance.[1][2]
She also featured in the American comedy sketch show Saturday Night Live (1984–1985), becoming the first female SNL cast member to have been born outside of North America. Her characters on the show included Angela Bradleigh (Weekend Update commentator) and celebrity impersonations of Madonna (in a fake commercial parodying the singer's "Lucky Star" music video), Billy Idol, Debby Douillard, Peggy Ashcroft, Joan Collins and Cyndi Lauper.
Stephenson acted in a number of films, including Private Collection, Superman III, Scandalous with John Gielgud, Bloodbath at the House of Death, Mel Brooks's History of the World, Part 1, and Stand Up, Virgin Soldiers.
Other media appearances[edit]
In 1993, Stephenson hosted the Australian lifestyle program Sex.
In December 2010 Stephenson appeared in the eighth series of the BBC1 television show Strictly Come Dancing, consistently winning praise. On 4 December she received a perfect score of 10 from each of the four judges for her Viennese Waltz and became only the eighth celebrity to do so. She then reached the final along with Matt Baker and Kara Tointon. On 18 December, with dancing partner James Jordan, she came third in the competition.[3]
Also in December 2010, Stephenson was the guest on BBC Radio 3's Private Passions, with a choice of music including Bellini, Satie and Debussy.[4] In 2012, Stephenson travelled as a backpacker to Papua New Guinea in the Television New Zealand travel show Intrepid Journeys.

Pamela H. Connolly, PhD, is a USA-licensed clinical psychologist. In her private practice in Beverly Hills. she provided mental health care to adult individuals and couples for a range of psychological complaints. Connolly's professional specialties include human sexuality. She was founder and president of the Los Angeles Sexuality Center, an online sexual research engine which operated for five years until she moved to New York. Connolly is a past Secretary of the American Association of Sex Educators, Counselors and Therapists (AASECT). In 2002 and 2003, she served as conference program co-chair of the annual AASECT Conference. Connolly is also a member of the Society for the Scientific Study of Sexuality, the Harry Benjamin International Gender Dysphoria Association and the International Society for the Study of Women's Sexual Health.
Connolly was an adjunct professor at the California Graduate Institute for 6 years, now a part of the Chicago School of Professional Psychology. She taught Human Sexuality and Sex Therapy, Advanced Human Sexuality and Sex Therapy, and Clinical Practicum in Sex Therapy. She also taught clinical hypnosis at CGI. She received her PhD in 1996 and then in 2009 received an Honorary Doctorate in Science from the Robert Gordon University for her contributions to the field of human sexuality.[5]
Connolly has completed research projects and other field studies on the gender liminal people of Samoa, Tonga, and India. She has developed a psychometric measure, the Pre-Assessment for Trauma Plus (PAT+), to assess treatment needs in young offender populations which is now being used in some British prisons.
Connolly has presented the More4 TV show Shrink Rap, in which she conducted psychologically-based interviews with well-known people.
From the 1980s Stephenson campaigned to raise awareness of food additives and colors, particularly in children's confectionaries. She appeared on the daily variety show Midday with Ray Martin (hosted by Ray Martin) and painted a picture using the colors she extracted from children's lollies in order to demonstrate how many are contained in them. She became involved in the Parents for Safe Food Movement. In 2010, Stephenson travelled to the Democratic Republic of Congo with the international medical aid charity Merlin to meet the survivors of sexual and gender-based violence SGBV.[6]
Personal life[edit]
Stephenson was married to actor Nicholas Ball until the couple divorced.[citation needed] She met actor and comedian Billy Connolly in 1979 on the set of the BBC television show Not the Nine O'Clock News. The couple have three daughters together and married in Fiji on 20 December 1989.[citation needed]
Stephenson started practising Buddhism in 1979.[7]
In the United Kingdom general election, 1987, Stephenson was a candidate in the Windsor and Maidenhead constituency on behalf of the Blancmange Throwers Party[8] - she came sixth with 328 votes.
In late 2004, she sold her house in Hollywood and spent a year on a sailing cruise around the South Pacific Ocean, following the path of Robert Louis Stevenson and Fanny Stevenson. She said she was inspired by Fanny (also married to a Scotsman) who had convinced her husband to travel to the tropics for the sake of his fragile health. Her travels were documented in her book Treasure Islands. The boat she bought was renamed "Takapuna" after her birthplace.
A year later, she went on another voyage to discover the fate of an ancestor, a sailing captain who had disappeared in the South Seas. The voyage was the subject of a documentary for Australian television, Murder or Mutiny.
As an author, Pamela Connolly has published six books. Her biography Billy topped best-seller lists in Britain and several other countries. Head Case describes self-help approaches for a variety of mental health problems. She has been a regular contributor to 'Psychologies" magazine, writes a column on relationships for the Australian Women's Weekly and has a weekly sexual healing column in The Guardian, written under the name Pamela Stephenson Connolly.[9]

Eagles' Jackson headed to IR with fractured ribs Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) - Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson will miss the remainder of the season because of fractured ribs. Eagles coach Andy Reid said Jackson will be placed on injured reserve. "He fractured a couple ribs up high in his chest," said Reid Tuesday during his day-after game press conference. "He's got multiple fractures." Jackson was hurt during the first quarter of Monday's loss to Carolina. He is leading the Eagles in receiving with team highs of 45 catches and 700 yards. The Eagles have now lost their starting quarterback, top running back and No. 1 receiver in the last three weeks. Quarterback Michael Vick missed his second straight game Monday because of a concussion. Reid said Vick still hadn't passed an impact test and was set to undergo another on Wednesday. "I want Mike to get healthy, I haven't gone beyond that thinking there," said Reid about who his starting quarterback would be for next Sunday's game against Dallas. Vick was hurt two weeks ago against the Cowboys, while running back LeSean McCoy sustained a concussion last week against Washington and sat out Monday's game. McCoy's status is also still uncertain. Nick Foles has started the last two games at quarterback and the rookie will get another turn on Sunday against the Cowboys if Vick is still not ready to go. Bryce Brown ran for 178 yards with two scores in his first NFL start on Monday in place of McCoy, but also fumbled twice. Reid also said Tuesday that offensive tackle Jason Peters will be placed on injured reserve. Peters was on the reserve/non-football injury list because of an Achilles' tendon injury he sustained in the offseason. 11/27 12:25:27 ET |

marvelous wire but only nine feet long

This is the best picture framing wire I've used. Unfortunately I do large format so it is a problem that it is only nine feet long. Most of my paintings are six feet wide so I get only one frame per roll. My current canvas is nine feet wide so I don't even know if I can use it.

The Redford Police and Fire departments are looking at cuts of more than $1 million each in the proposed budget presented by township Supervisor Tracey Schultz Kobylarz.
And the recommended budget shows cuts in the bottom lines for many departments, but no cuts were made in the line items to reach those cuts.
This budget is not, perhaps, the budget most expected. In fact, the results probably felt like a dose of cold water. But, no one can say I did not warn them, Kobylarz said in statement Friday morning.
Knowing that the ultimate decisions for the specificity of reductions where necessary, lies with the Board of Trustees, I prepared bottom-line reductions in my recommended budget, her statement said.
Trustee Pat McRae said, Ive been on the board many years. Ive never seen anything like it. This is the only budget Ive ever seen that has been a summary page.
Im disappointed in it. My perspective is the board will have to do the budget, he said.
Big cuts
The biggest proposed cuts are in police and fire.
While the police department presented a budget request for $9,184,415 up from last years budget of $8,986,816, the recommended budget is $7,996,805.
The fire department presented a budget request for $6,225,795 up from last years budget of $6,029,923. The fire departments recommended budget is $4,570,415.
The entire township recommended budget presented by Kobylarz is $28,204,415 as compared to the total requested budget of $30,180,450 and last years budget of $28,663,504.
Other examples include:
District court requested $207,224 but the bottom line is $78,114 less or $129,110.
Work program requested $57,230 and the recommended budget calls for $28,900.
Clerks office requested $344,755 and was budgeted for $37,225 less at $307,530.
Civil service recommended budget is $88,312 less at $151,228.
Police and fire civil service would be cut by $34,300 to $2,400.
Meeting Tuesday
The Redford Township clerk and treasurer are calling for a board budget study session at 5:30 p.m. Feb. 18 even though there was word the supervisor canceled it, according to deputy clerk Betsy McRae. Two board members can call a meeting, she said.
But Kobylarz said she didnt cancel the meeting. The police chief is not available that day so I suggested to the clerk that we cancel based on his availability and move both study sessions to the week following. The clerk and treasurer misinterpreted my suggestion and scheduled a meeting that was never canceled by me in the first place, Kobylarz said.
Other budget study sessions are tentatively scheduled for March 4, 5, 8, 11 and 15, Betsy McRae said.
It is understandable that this balanced budget has been met with significant amount of push back and angst by the chiefs, some employees and the Board of Trustees. Well, they left me with no choice. My fiduciary responsibility to Redford Township and as required by law has been met. I created a balanced, bottom line budget. Expenditures equal revenues, her statement said.
The budget requests I received were laden with increased expenses and an apparent unwillingness to tighten belts. Since our departments failed to make necessary cuts, I had to, she said in the statement.
..., the 14/15 budget has been presented in a way to encourage the Board to identify specific savings, reductions, or tax increases. My recommended budget doesnt call for a tax increase to balance the general fund, nor does it call for specific spending cuts or staffing changes. As I said, those decisions will lie with the Board of Trustees, Kobylarz said in a statement.
Messages left for the police and fire chiefs were not returned by deadline.

[JURIST] Irish Justice Minister Dermot Ahern [official profile] announced Wednesday that Ireland will accept two detainees [press release] being released from the US prison facility at Guantanamo Bay [JURIST news archive]. The detainees will not be admitted as refugees, but rather with permanent residency rights [Guardian report], allowing them to work and move freely. Ahern said:
During my time as Minister for Foreign Affairs, I was the first EU Minister to call for the closure of the detention facility. The Government has consistently called for its closure since then. In making this decision I am conscious of the intention of the United States to close the centre at Guantanamo Bay, in part by transferring detainees, no longer regarded as posing a threat to security but who cannot return to their own countries, to other countries willing to accept them.
