Start and Control konsole with DCOP
I like to open a lot of tabs in my terminal (konsole) window: a few standard shells, a couple of su shells, and some ssh connections to other systems that I access regularly. KDE can remember some of these settings via its session capability, but it doesn't always remember everything I want, and sometimes it remembers things I wish it would forget. So, to get my standard tabs, I use DCOP to start what I want when I want it.
DCOP (Desktop COmmunication Protocol) is a protocol that allows applications to interoperate. DCOP has a command-line tool for using it, named, of course, dcop. Note, that DCOP has been replaced in KDE4 with D-Bus (Desktop Bus), so if you've moved to KDE4, this won't do you any good.
The idea is to create a script that creates the konsole tabs I want to create. First are the library functions. There are three functions:
create_konsole - starts a new copy of konsole and returns the DCOP ID for it.
wait_for_session - waits until the session count (that is, the tab count) in the specified konsole reaches a certain value. This is used to make sure a recently created session has actually started before we try to interact with it.
start_sessions - uses a global sessions array to start a list of sessions. The array contains three items for each session:
- The session name
- The schema for the session
- The command to run in the session
The library code follows:
# Functions from creating konsoles.
# Create new console.
function create_konsole()
local basename=$(date +"%H%M%N")
local name=$basename"_konsoleX1_"
local kstart_options=$1
local konsole_options=$2
kstart $kstart_options --window $name konsole $konsole_options --script -T $name >/dev/null 2>&1
local konsole_id=konsole-$(ps aux | grep konsole | grep -v grep | grep $name | awk '{print $2}')
echo $konsole_id
# Wait to make sure the session count equals $1.
function wait_for_session()
local konsole_id=$1
local count=$2
local session_count=$(dcop $konsole_id konsole sessionCount 2>/dev/null)
while [[ $session_count -ne $count ]]
sleep 0.1
session_count=$(dcop $konsole_id konsole sessionCount)
# Start sessions in konsole.
function start_sessions()
local konsole_id=$1
local nsessions=1
local session_count=${#sessions[*]}
local i=0
while [[ $i -lt $session_count ]]
local name=${sessions[$i]}
let i++
local schema=${sessions[$i]}
let i++
local command=${sessions[$i]}
let i++
dcop $konsole_id $session_id renameSession "$name"
sleep 0.1
dcop $konsole_id $session_id setSchema "$schema"
sleep 0.1
dcop $konsole_id $session_id sendSession "$command"
sleep 0.1
if [[ $i -lt $session_count ]]; then
let nsessions++
local session_id=$(dcop $konsole_id konsole newSession)
wait_for_session $konsole_id $nsessions
# vim: tabstop=4: shiftwidth=4: noexpandtab:
# kate: tab-width 4; indent-width 4; replace-tabs false;
In create_konsole we start the new konsole with the command:
kstart $kstart_options --window $name konsole $konsole_options --script -T $name >/dev/null 2>&1
This uses kstart to start konsole with a known window name, so that we can get its name via some ps/grep shenanigans in the next line.
In start_sessions, we use dcop to rename the session:
dcop $konsole_id $session_id renameSession "$name"
To set the schema for the session:
dcop $konsole_id $session_id setSchema "$schema"
And to send the command to the session:
dcop $konsole_id $session_id sendSession "$command"
At the end of the function, if there are more sessions to create, we also use dcop to start another session:
local session_id=$(dcop $konsole_id konsole newSession)
In our main script, we need to define the sessions we want. For this sample, we'll start two standard shells, one su shell and one ssh connection:
sh1 $schema 'clear; bash'
sh1 $schema 'clear; bash'
su1 $schema 'clear; su'
ssh1 $schema 'clear; ssh 127.0.0.1'
The schema variable here is set to the *.schema file that we want konsole to use for the tab. The entire script is:
# Create my standard konsole windows.
source ~/bin/konsoles.sh
if [[ ! "$schema" ]]; then
sh1 $schema 'clear; bash'
sh1 $schema 'clear; bash'
su1 $schema 'clear; su'
ssh1 $schema 'clear; ssh 127.0.0.1'
konsole_id=$(create_konsole '--iconify')
wait_for_session 1
session_id=$(dcop $konsole_id konsole currentSession)
start_sessions $konsole_id
dcop $konsole_id konsole activateSession $first_session_id
sleep 0.1
dcop $konsole_id 'konsole-mainwindow#1' restore
sleep 0.1
dcop $konsole_id 'konsole-mainwindow#1' setGeometry 100 100 600 400
# vim: tabstop=4: shiftwidth=4: noexpandtab:
# kate: tab-width 4; indent-width 4; replace-tabs false;
- The steps are:
- Call create_konsole to create the initial console and wait for it to become ready. The window is created iconified.
- Use dcop to get the session id of the first session created. We use this after creating all the other sessions to activate the first session.
- Call start_sessions to create the sessions in our sessions array.
- Use dcop to activate the first session that was created.
- Use dcop to restore the main window.
- Use dcop to size and place the main window.
Run the main script and you should get a konsole window that looks like:

script at:
is similar and is using a better method of getting the PID :-)
Yes and No
It's better if you're starting konsole directly, but I'm not, I'm using kstart to start konsole and that code would return the PID for kstart and not for konsole.

I thought i was subscribing
I thought i was subscribing to LJ for "cutting-edge", updated stuff. But I guess i'll better stick with KDE3.
KDE4 not quite there yet
Although KDE 4.2 is certainly worlds better than the first couple of releases, it still has some annoyances so I haven't made the move yet. When it gets there, you can be sure I'll be updating this to use D-Bus.

For gentoo users, be sure to have kde-base/kstart installed :)
this was what I was looking for!!
Hello, this was exactly what I was looking for!
But so far I'm unable to make it work. I only get so many
"call failed" and no konsole started at all.
if I run the second script with bash -x this is what I get:
+ source /home/ll/bin/konsoles.sh
+ [[ ! -n '' ]]
+ schema=GreenOnBlack.schema
... Removed for brevity
++ dcop konsole- konsole currentSession
call failed
... Removed for brevity
do you think that this can be fixed?
My full script had some extra cruft in it so I used a trimmed down version for the post and I got a bit too exuberant in my trimming. In the second script, look for "wait_for_session" and change it from this:
wait_for_session 1
to this:
wait_for_session $konsole_id 1

Achieving the similar with dbus would make a great article, would it not?
Yes it would
And when KDE4 fixes a few more things I'll be upgrading.

You can talk via dbus like dcop
You say it won't help, but dbus was sort of designed off the ideas of dcop... so switching to dbus CAN work... and you can send messages to apps in KDE4 just like 3.5 using dbus instead of dcop.
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.

Not much to say that is negative. Very happy with finished product. It took a few hours to set up but wasn't bad (2 of us) A few nicks in surface and hinge is slightly out of place but all in all 95 out of 100.
If you are a homeowner, you have probably taken products out of a box from China and spent an afternoon trying to decipher sketchy instructions and tried to complete a box full of panels into something that looks like the object one wanted and ordered. FORGET ALL THAT. This item comes to you in somewhat pre-assembled sections that go together like toast and butter. Everything clearly labeled, easy to assemble, made of wood and components it's almost a shame to cover up, and the end product is substantial, usable, beautiful and worth every penny. Assembly is a pleasant 1 to 1.5 hours. Expensive, but worth every penny. One of our favorite pieces in our home. Could even be considered a source of pride, "I built that!" (well, sorta.)

"I ordered these to use on my Christmas cards What a great idea. Using these "We've Moved" labels let my cards stay Christmasy. While I like this design, I wish they would have had a few more choices--especially one more holiday themed."
"These are great labels that match the moving announcement. They are also the same colors used with our new home. They are perfect!! I have not ever been disappointed with Tiny Prints products. I have used them for years!!! I always find just what I am looking for, regardless of the occasion."
"This address label is great because I wanted to call attention to our new address without sending out another postcard or print 'business cards'. I plan to include the label on my son's birthday party invites. I like the simple design with bold highlight on "we've moved!""
"I ordered these as a housewarming gift and both the receipient and myself loved them. The customer service dept. was very helpful. I had made an error on the label and Tinyprints contacted me via email and phone to make sure I had typed the name correctly for the label before sending them to print."
"We moved a few months before the birth of our son. These labels were the perfect addition to our birth announcements (also from tiny prints!) It allowed us to share our new address with the whole family without sending out an additional card!"

Comic Book Store Owner To Run for City Council; Vows to Spend Only $999
John Scandalios, the owner of the comic book store Crazy Scondo's, says he's committed to running as a Democrat in Peter Koo's Council District in Northeast Queens.
Despite Mr. Koo's personal wealth, Mr. Scandalios pledged to spend no more than $1,000 on the race. "My budget is $999, because there's no reason for me to spend any more than that," he said in an interview with Politicker last night. "I don't like receiving … 50 different mailings from ten different candidates … I find it a nuisance."
Mr. Scandalios, a former engineer who worked on the operating system for the Trident II Submarine, said he found his way into the comic book business through a love of baseball cards a couple decades ago and intends to use his experience running a small business in the City Council. Read More

ESPN's "Face" of the Brewers
ESPN's MLB faces The Brewers' face? I have to admit that I was stumped, initially, when trying to guess who it might be...Geoff Jenkins, I first thought, by virtue of his tenure. Then Ben Sheets jumped ahead, due to his tenure and success (not to mention all the fantasy owners that have been burned in drafting him due to his injury history). But Prince Fielder won the nod. This makes sense, but it was still a surprise to me, as it was just over two years ago that I saw the big guy smack his first MLB homer on June 25, 2005, against the Twins. But his recent All-Star experience, plus leading the NL in homers in '07, has already grabbed the attention of the national media. Even more surprising on the list--the Tigers' face...manager Jim Leyland??? I suppose the general equality of Magglio Ordoñez, Gary Sheffield, and Justin Verlander negate each other. Vin Scully of the Dodgers? Bobby Cox of the Braves? I suppose the Jones' boys offset each other, too. What do you all think?
ESPN.com has taken upon itself to survey experts and identify which player or manager is the "face" of each club:

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- A Charleston man is dead after getting pinned by his truck after it went over a hill on the city's West Side.
William Martin, 67, of Chandler Drive, was turning right onto White Oak Road from Summit Drive shortly after 10 p.m. Monday night when his front left tire slipped off the road, said Sgt. Shawn Williams with the Charleston Police Department Traffic Division.
Williams said the hairpin curve is the site of quite a few accidents. "It's a very nearly impossible turn, but you can make it if you maneuver right," Williams said.
The tires of Martin's Dodge pickup slipped over the left side of the road onto an overhang above a house, Williams said. "There is about a three-foot difference between the pavement and the property," he said.
Williams said Martin got out the truck and went around the front to see if he was stuck and forgot to put the vehicle in park.
A witness said the truck kept rolling when Martin got out. He attempted to stop it but "there was no way he could have done that," Williams said.
The truck rolled down the hillside about 50 feet and dragged Martin with it before pinning him against a house, Williams said.
Martin was pronounced dead at the scene.
Williams said a deck on the home was destroyed, but he did not believe there was any structural damage to the house. The homeowner, who was in the house at the time of the accident, said she saw the truck roll down the hillside. She was not injured.
When EMS arrived on the scene, they discovered the truck had been left in drive, Williams said.

I've been capturing websites for the JISC since 2004. In recent years, many of these project sites have been blogs, and I've noted strange behaviours with some of my captures. I'm interested in any method that can improve on the current methodology. I anticipate that this ArchivePress approach is going to work very well from a preservation standpoint. This I think for three reasons:
- It's going to result in a much "cleaner" capture of blog content than the remote harvesting method. Up to now I've been working with the Heritrix harvesting engine, which is a very powerful robot for copying the content and the folder structure of a web site. Some blogs can defeat Heritrix in short order, particularly if they use tricky scripts or are highly database-driven. WordPress blogs store their content in neat folders of course, and they have proven more amenable to a Heritrix capture. However, even WordPress blogs can result in me capturing the same content three times over, especially if it's harvesting the "Tags" or "Category" folders. What I assume is happening is that Heritrix is effectively requesting the same content from the server. With more well-established blogs that are full of content, this can lead to bloated gathers. We can solve that problem with judicious filters applied to the harvesting engine. However, as I understand it, ArchivePress is going to be capturing the content direct from the RSS Feed. This may be as good as getting the data direct from the web server itself, in a nice "clean" export.
- The data from the feed is structured. It's in an XML wrapper, which identifies all the content within a schema of structured data fields. Some of these fields, such as Title and Author, are Dublin Core compliant, which is good news for us archival metadata lovers. For various reasons, structured data is more desirable than the less-structured output of a remotely gathered website. True, with the latter we're copying the folder structure, and html pages could be deemed "structured" with their tags, but they're almost exclusively to do with formatting and rendering the content so that it works in a web browser (colours, fonts, headings etc.).
- The structured XML data is going to be much more flexible and adaptable. Instead of bundling the elaborate website structure and its contents inside a WARC file format for preservation purposes, we could pour the data direct into our own local database, configured so as to match the metadata from the feed. Over time, perhaps our database could be preserved as CSV tables (a method ULCC pioneered with the NDAD service), a format which will be robust and reliable and migrate-able. At any time, a copy of the data could be poured out of the database again, and (if desired) rendered as formatted data for a web browser, even replicating the look and feel if necessary. Yet throughout such processes, it can retain its integrity as that collection of clean structured data.
We can see how this will lead to improved Submission Information Packages, Archival Information Packages and Dissemination Information Packages within the OAIS framework, meaning that ArchivePress is potentially a very good approach for digital preservation purposes.

Love the blog, I've listened to caspa like 57 times today. Keep up the blog man!

Reputational Incentives for Restaurant Hygiene
Article Citation
Jin, Ginger Zhe, and
Phillip Leslie. 2009. "Reputational Incentives for Restaurant Hygiene."

How can consumers be assured that firms will endeavor to provide
good quality when quality is unobservable prior to purchase? We
test the hypothesis that reputational incentives are effective at causing
restaurants to maintain good hygiene quality. We find that chain
affiliation provides reputational incentives and franchised units tend
to free-ride on chain reputation. We also show that regional variation
in the degree of repeat customers affects the strength of reputational
incentives for good hygiene at both chain and nonchain restaurants.
Despite these incentives, a policy intervention in the form of posted
hygiene grade cards causes significant improvements in restaurant
hygiene. (JEL I18, I19, L14, L83).

Ask the Doctor
Questions about kidney disease? Risk factors? Signs and symptoms? Are you concerned about yourself, a friend or family member? Ask Dr. Spry.
When Methodist minister Karen Onesti found out during an interfaith clergy meeting in Mount Laurel, New Jersey, that her colleague, Rabbi Andrew Bossov, was in need of a kidney transplant, she was quick to respond, "I'll give you one of mine!"
Now more than three years post-transplant, the two say their friendship has deepened and both are healthy and active. They're so fit, in fact, that they're teaming up for the Kidney Walk at the Philadelphia Zoo this fall, recruiting family and friends to join their effort. The team name? You guessed it: "I'll give you one of mine."
To read more about Karen's special gift to Rabbi Andy, click here. To sign up for a local Kidney Walk, click here.
A group of Israeli researchers have identified a gene that increases the risk of kidney failure in people of African, and particularly sub-Saharan, descent. Upon further testing, this gene identification may revolutionize the prevention, detection, and treatment of chronic kidney disease in people at increased risk.
If you're thinking about donating a kidney to a relative, friend or even a stranger, it's important to get educated on the process so you understand what's involved. To help you make this important decision, the NKF answers the top 5 questions about living donation.
It's back to school time! Instead of sending the kids off with a knapsack that's larger than they are, just pack the notebooks and gym clothes into this lightweight Love Your Kidneys drawstring bag. It's sturdy, practical and hard to lose with its bright orange "kidney" color. Now save 25% on the backpack and every item in the NKF store when you use coupon code "LYK09" at checkout.
As the leaves change color this Fall, bring a little color of your own to the dinner table with this kidney–friendly stir fry dish from the Kidney Kitchen.

Inkscape 0.47 Makes Drawing Freely Easier
The Inkscape team has come out after a year's time with a new release of their vector drawing program. It provides not only new features but countless detailed enhancements.
One of the important and long-awaited new functions in Inkscape is autosave, which secures work done in incremental backups and should make data loss a thing of the past. PostScript and EPS imports are also significantly better, allowing for more professional applications.
The coolest new drawing tool is possibly Spiro splines, which define curvilinear paths and are available in the pen, pencil and node tools.
Some further important new features include:
- Auto smooth nodes, a new node type that smooths paths.
- Reworked snapping system with a Snapping toolbar and corresponding grids for drawing elements.
- New path effects that can be assigned to groups.
- Many new filters in the Filter Editor.
- Spell-checker for text elements.
- Countless new and improved extensions.
- New dialog for exporting to SVG format.
The Inkscape 0.47 release notes include the full details. Source code and official packages are ready for download from the project page. Apart from Linux versions, there are binaries for Mac OS X and Windows. Most distros will also have their own packages in short time.

Post subject: Preparing for Homeschooling... A mothers major JITTERS!
My husband and I decided to homeschool when my first child was just a baby, and I have two toddlers now, the eldest is just 3. We decided this because we both agreed that what children learn in schools (or at least the ones we had experienced) is very lacking, and we wanted to try and give our children a well rounded 'real life', safe experience of learning practical, important things. My husband is very accademic whereas I found it really hard to get through school and never went on to higher learning etc but we both found our 'Official Learning experiences' very unorganised, hectic and yet also empty of lasting value.
We have chosen a curriculum which we have already purchased and been through and various other bits, and have lots of preschool materials, including 'What Your Preschooler Should Know' books. I read often to my children and they play various games and do activities etc, but we haven't started anything official yet (due to the children not yet being old enough) and secretly I am TERRIFIED.
I guess maybe I lack confidence in myself because sometimes it takes me a long time to understand even basic concepts (I am very poor at Maths for example), although my husband has done a degree and suchforth so we are in many ways polar opposites. I'm having the old 'homeschooling jitters' because I'm thinking if I did poorly in school, how can I (Me???) then properly educate my children? My husband says there's no need to worry as they do provide answers in the back of the books, and we can inlist help, and I AM looking forward to learning WITH my kids afresh, although there is a rather large part of me that is wondering just how this can work when I barely got any 'A' grades beyond 'middle school', and I can just imagine people all around me asking how I can educate when I'm no 'real' teacher. Y'know the types, in social situations, and even some members of family.. I just wanted to know of any other mum's experiences in this regard, or stories of encouragement. This year we are meant to make preparations to get our eldest into Primary School (or not), ready for next September, and this has highlighted that I really need to get mentally organised, feel free-er and more relaxed about what I am doing, because inside I know it is the right choice. Soon we will have to give people answers when they ask our plans and I am really frightened. I've never been overly confident, and even though I am convinced to do this, in social situations (or rather when under pressure from prying people) I seem to get so tongue tied and all the 'head knowledge' goes out the window!
My 3 year old is already learning to read, and really enjoys it- as we are following a book called The Ordinary Parents Guide to Teaching Reading which seems to go down a treat. My youngest almost knows all his alphabet in lower and uppercase, as my eldest did by the age of 2, so I am definately making an effort. I want to do the best for my children and I do feel that it is my responsibility rather than primarily someone else's. I just feel that I am failing in some way, in between stories and activities, reading and so on I feel like I just don't know what to do with them. Like I'm almost scared of silence, as if it is a product of laziness... I know this is rubbish, and my kids are happy to just play with a box so they're fine, but why can't I relax? I can't take them out to do physical things much as I have a condition which means I'm usually in a fair amount of pain, but I am not worried about that because we have friends and family for help there. I just feel very much under pressure by our official descisions or rejecting mainstream school, (it's kind of made it all real now!!) and I've hit an emotional brick wall where I've run out of zest for doing new things, and feel uninspired.
The kids are at that in-between stage with a lot of their toys, where one wants to play and the other wants to just eat the toy or stuff the Crayola down the sofa or whatever, so again I find myself wondering 'what DO you do with Pre-Preschool age children (2 & 3) every day?' I think I am longing for some sort of structure, where I can tick the boxes to convince myself I am being productive each day with them, because quite often it all seems so chaotic and I get so tired! I feel guilty for thinking this way because if I am worried now about what I should be doing with them (or rather, that I am doing ENOUGH to stimulate and teach them each day) what will I be like when they are actually school age, and I have to constantly answer people who think I have no right to be doing what I am doing?? My husband says he will help and is sure things will be OK, that I'm just nervous, and he's probably right, but I want to get over feeling like this!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I do think there are lots of other new homeschool moms who feel exactly like you do~ please know you are not alone.
I think you just have to come to the point where you feel comfortable and confident with your decision to homeschool your children (and all other decisions regarding their care) and you don't care what anyone else thinks.
This may take time.
My oldest son is 19 and I am VERY confident...........BUT I've seen the end result.........the final product -- of homeschooling. He is doing college work now and he graduated last June from high school. At his graduation, I was grateful to see what a fine young man he had become and I truly believe that homeschooling him was the best decision I've ever made.
I know this is hard to do, but please IGNORE any negative comments from friends or family when you announce your decision to homeschool. Any negative comments come from IGNORANCE in the true sense of the word. People are simply not educated about the benefits and advantages of homeschooling. They will see how great your children are doing after a while and they will come around. You can administer achievement tests and have the scores in hand to prove how well they are doing when they are a little older. Also, you might be surprised to find that you will receive lots of positive reactions to the fact that you are homeschooling.
I can tell they are already doing great!! Play is very important when they are young. They learn through play..... and reading to them (as you already know) is the BEST thing you can do - to create a love of reading and a love of learning that will last a lifetime.
You are going to be a wonderful teacher and you are right, you WILL learn new things right along with them. And your husband is right -- the answers are in the back of the book. Also, there are many programs on the computer, etc. so that you don't even have to do any of the teaching if you don't want to.
Relax and enjoy them while they are young because they grow up FAST. Treasure every moment! Here is a link for an article that I love about what your 4 year old should know:
Best wishes as you begin homeschooling.

15:00: The Broncos received the ball to start the game, so Matt Prater is out to kick off to begin the second half. Fred Jackson takes the squib kick 17 yards out to the Buffalo 44-yard line, where the Bills offense takes over.
14:44: Marshawn Lynch takes the first-down carry for four yards. On second down, Buffalo is called for a false start. That makes it second-and-11. Trent Edwards takes the snap in the shotgun formation, finding tight end Robert Royal for an eight-yard pickup before he is forced out of bounds by D.J. Williams.
On third-and-3, Edwards is in the shotgun again. He takes the snap and finds Fred Jackson — he barely gets the first down before beind forced backwards by Dre' Bly.
12:44: Lynch takes the carry on first down again, picking up another five yards. On second down, Edwards quickly gets the ball out to Josh Reed, who is pushed out of bounds by Champ Bailey just past the first-down marker.
11:30: First-and-10 for the Bills, and Edwards is once again in the shotgun, flanked by two running backs. He gives it to the one on the left, Fred Jackson, and he picks up three yards.
On second down, Edwards tries to find Roscoe Parish in the red zone, but it's off his fingertips and almost intercepted by Josh Barrett.
10:47: Now it's third-and-7 for the Bills at the Denver 30-yard line. The play call is a handoff to Lynch, who is stopped behind the line by Elvis Dumervil. There's no gain on the play, setting up fourth-and-7.
Rian Lindell is in to attempt the field goal for Buffalo. It's a 49-yard attempt. The kick is up and sneaks through the right upright. It's good, and the Bills have come back to tie the Broncos, 13-13.
9:52: Lindell is set to kick off for Buffalo, and Selvin Young is back deep to receive. He picks up 22 yards to the 29-yard line, where Jay Cutler and company will take over.
Just heard the wind chill on the field is -1 degrees. Uh, that's chilly.
Play resumes, and Young takes a handoff for no gain. On second down, Cutler tries to find Brandon Marshall in traffic, but it's broken up.
9:09: Now it's third-and-10 for the Broncos from their own 29-yard line, and Cutler calls a timeout with the play clock winding down. It's Denver's first of the half.
Cutler takes the snap in the shotgun and finds Marshall streaking down the middle of the field. He hauls it in for what looks like a first down, but the ball is drilled out by a sprinting Donte Whitner. It's a fumble, the Bills recover and the Buffalo offense takes over at its own 42-yard line.
8:52: On first down, Edwards lets the ball fly as he gets hit. It's short, but Dre' Bly is called for pass interference — it's a 22-yard penalty.
Now on first down from the Denver 36-yard line, Fred Jackson takes a carry for two yards. On second down, Edwards fakes a handoff before bootlegging to his right and picking up a first down.
7:20: It's play-action again on first down, this time Edwards fakes the handoff, rolls to his right and fires the ball to Josh Reed, who picks up a first down at the Denver 11.
On first-and-10, Edwards takes the snap, fakes a handoff to Lynch and gives it to Roscoe Parish on a receiver end-around. Dre' Bly sniffs out the play, however, and brings Parish down at the line of scrimmage.
6:00: Second-and-10 for Buffalo from the Denver 11. Elvis Dumervil fights off his blocker and gets to Edwards for what looks like a sack, but Edwards fights away as Dumervil is thrown to the ground. Edwards rolls to his right and tries to find Marshawn Lynch, but it bounces off the running back's hands out of bounds. There's a flag on the play, however. The tackle who ripped Dumervil off of Edwards is being called for holding. The penalty is declined, setting up third-and-10 from the 11.
Edwards is in the shotgun, drops back and pitches what looks like a shovel pass to Jackson. It's complete, but Jackson is knocked down by Dumervil after a one-yard gain.
4:58: Lindell kicks in a 28-yard field goal, and Buffalo takes its first lead of the game. The Bills lead the Broncos 16-13.
4:52: Cutler and the offense take over at the 16-yard line after Young bobbled the kickoff before picking up 10 yards.
Cutler starts off quickly on first down, finding Daniel Graham down the middle of the field for a big gain — 24 yards — down to the Denver 40-yard line.
First down again, Cutler drops back and tries to find Marshall, but as he adjusted to find the ball, Buffalo's Terrence McGee smacked the ball away.
4:04: Second-and-10, Cutler in the shotgun. He drops back and looks for a wide open and streaking Eddie Royal — not sure what the Buffalo defense was looking at — but he is hit just as he lets the ball goes and overthrows the rookie. Cutler stands by himself a few yards back after the play with his hands on his hips.
3:55: The team takes a little long to get to the line, however, and the Broncos are called for a delay of game penalty. That sets up third-and-15, but Cutler rolls to his right, avoids pressure and launches the ball to Daniel Graham in triple coverage, but Graham comes away with the ball for a 23-yard gain. First-and-10 Denver.
The team hurries up to the line and right away Cutler finds Tony Scheffler down the middle of the field for another first down. Clearly the Broncos are working the tight ends.
2:30: It's first-and-10 for the Broncos at the Buffalo 22-yard line. The offense jogs up to the line. Cutler takes the snap, drops back and almost avoids the pressure — but he's caught by his shoelaces by Kawika Mitchell for a sack.
Selvin Young was shaken up on the play, but he walks off the field under his own power, flanked by trainers.
A shirtless fan painted in orange and blue is shown on the scoreboard, and the crowd gives him a standing ovation. Now play resumes and Cutler throws a high pass to Marshall, who leaps in the air and comes away with it.
1:15: With the ball at the 18-yard line, Cutler jogs up to the line and sets up in the shotgun. It's third-and-6. He takes the snap and finds Brandon Stokley sprinting across the field. Stokley takes it and runs with it toward the sideline, picking up the first down and setting up first-and-goal from the six.
0:38: On first down, Cutler takes the snap, bootlegs to his left, picks up a HUGE block by Ryan Clady in front of him and dives for the pylon. Touchdown, Broncos. It's Cutler's second rushing touchdown of the day.
The Matt Prater extra point is through the uprights, and the Broncos retake the lead against the Bills, 20-16.
On the drive, Cutler passed the 4,000-yard mark for the season. He's just the third quarterback in Broncos history to throw for 4,000 yards in a season — John Elway and Jake Plummer were the others.
0:33: Lou Green takes down Leodis McKelvin after an 18-yard return on the kickoff. The ball is now at the Buffalo 28, first-and-10 for the Bills. The crowd at INVESCO is on its feet as Champ Bailey latches onto Jackson and takes him down after a gain of four.
INJURY UPDATE: Selvin Young has a pinched nerve. His return is questionable.
The quarter comes to an end on the Jackson run. The Broncos lead the Bills, 20-16.

I am TIRED of hearing the statement, "How do they keep winning"? They have HEART!!! Everyone of them and it shows! Talent yes, leadership yes, and ofcourse B-ROY! But the heart is excellent!
He won't win it, but he certainly should be in the conversation. If he keeps this up, he should be All-NBA 1st Team..which would be nearly good enough as the MVP would be.

The ICC requested last month that the Republic of Malawi explain [JURIST report] why that country's authorities failed to arrest al-Bashir during his widely reported visit there for a trade summit. Amnesty International (AI) [advocacy website], in a press release on the day of al-Bashir's visit, urged Malawi to arrest the Sudanese president [JURIST report] and surrender him to the ICC for prosecution. In June, AI urged Malaysia to withdraw an invitation for al-Bashir to participate in an event there and to arrest him if he travels to the country [JURIST report]. Also in June, ICC Chief Prosecutor Luis Moreno Ocampo issued a statement claiming that al-Bashir has continued to commit crimes against humanity [JURIST report] in Darfur. In May, the ICC urged Djibouti to arrest al-Bashir [JURIST report].

You know exercise is good for you, but do you know how good? From boosting your mood to improving your sex life, find out how exercise can improve your life.
Want to feel better, have more energy and perhaps even live longer? Look no further than exercise. The health benefits of regular exercise and physical activity are hard to ignore. And the benefits of exercise are yours for the taking, regardless of your age, sex or physical ability. Need more convincing to exercise? Check out these seven ways exercise can improve your life.
Exercise can help prevent excess weight gain or help maintain weight loss. When you engage in physical activity, you burn calories. The more intense the activity, the more calories you burn. You don't need to set aside large chunks of time for exercise to reap weight-loss benefits. If you can't do an actual workout, get more active throughout the day in simple ways — by taking the stairs instead of the elevator or revving up your household chores.
Worried about heart disease? Hoping to prevent high blood pressure? No matter what your current weight, being active boosts high-density lipoprotein (HDL), or "good," cholesterol and decreases unhealthy triglycerides. This one-two punch keeps your blood flowing smoothly, which decreases your risk of cardiovascular diseases. In fact, regular physical activity can help you prevent or manage a wide range of health problems and concerns, including stroke, metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, depression, certain types of cancer, arthritis and falls.
Need an emotional lift? Or need to blow off some steam after a stressful day? A workout at the gym or a brisk 30-minute walk can help. Physical activity stimulates various brain chemicals that may leave you feeling happier and more relaxed. You may also feel better about your appearance and yourself when you exercise regularly, which can boost your confidence and improve your self-esteem.
Winded by grocery shopping or household chores? Regular physical activity can improve your muscle strength and boost your endurance. Exercise and physical activity deliver oxygen and nutrients to your tissues and help your cardiovascular system work more efficiently. And when your heart and lungs work more efficiently, you have more energy to go about your daily chores.

The Colorblind Clock Is A Little Discriminatory
Because the colorblind aren't real people and certainly don't deserve to know what time it is, design company sonodesign is selling 'the clock i can't see'. The clock I can't see is a £35 ($58) wall clock designed to put the colorblind in their place and make them miss appointments.
Take a closer look and you will see numbers (12, 3, 6 and 9) hidden in amongst the spots. This clock is made of double thickness high quality acrylic and will hang on a standard picture hook.
Oh really? Well if you take a closer look at my fist you'll see stars. KA-POW! Neat, huh? While you recover, anybody can still read this clock provided you know where the numbers typically are (placement is pretty standard). So yeah, you may have won this battle, The Colorblind, but wait till they let me design prescription pills. MWAHAHAHAHAHA!
Hit the jump for two more shots including a close-up of the numbers.

Hi, (not you?) | Member Center | Sign Out
Posted: 9:20 p.m. Tuesday, April 2, 2013
By Jamie Dupree
With debate set to begin next week in the U.S. Senate on gun control legislation, President Obama will hit the road twice in coming days to sell his plans to voters, trying to use the bully pulpit to revive a bid for tougher gun laws conceived in the wake of the mass shootings last December in Newtown, Connecticut.
The first stop on Wednesday is in Denver, where Mr. Obama seems likely to reference the theater shootings in Aurora last year that killed a dozen people and injured seventy people.
Here was how the White House described the trip:
While in Denver, the President will deliver remarks at the Denver Police Academy where he will continue asking the American people to join him in calling on Congress to pass common-sense measures to reduce gun violence. The President will also meet with local law enforcement officials and community leaders to discuss the new measures the state recently put in place, including closing loopholes in the background check system to keep guns out of the hands criminals and others who should not have access to them.
Next Monday, the President will go to Hartford, Connecticut to speak about gun control; the trips come at a time when his legislative plans for gun control are running uphill in the Senate.
"This is our best chance in more than a decade to take common sense steps that will save lives," the President said last week in a White House event on guns, an event where Mr. Obama gave an impassioned defense of his legislative goals to rein in gun ownership.
"There's absolutely no reason why we can't get this done," the President added.
The problem for the Obama White House is simple right now - they don't have the votes to advance the President's agenda on guns, even though Democrats do control the Senate.
A few weeks ago, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid acknowledged what everyone in the halls of the Congress has known for some time, that the votes aren't there for an assault weapons ban in the Senate - in fact, Reid said backers would be hard pressed to get 40 votes for such a plan.
Democrats have 55 votes in the Senate - which means if they can't corral 40 for an assault weapons ban, there are a number of Democrats who aren't supporting that legislative effort.
Earlier this week, the Washington Post ran a front page story describing how the votes may not even be there for the plan to apply background checks to private gun sales, or for a bipartisan gun trafficking measure.
That wasn't front page news for those of us in the halls of Congress, as it has been apparent for some time that Democrats don't have momentum on gun control in the Congress.
But with that Senate debate now just days away, the White House has obviously decided to ramp up its public relations strategy, getting the President to focus on guns several times with trips to Colorado and Connecticut.
"I ask every American to find out where your Member of Congress stands on these ideas," the President said last week.
The answer is that a majority seem to oppose the President.
We'll see if he can change that in coming weeks or not.

I just received an invitation to a relative's wedding. The bottom of the invitation says "Black Tie Invited" -- what exactly does that mean?
It means the same thing as "Black Tie Optional." Basically, this is going to be a formal wedding -- the men in the wedding party are going to be decked out in tuxes, and men in the couple's immediate families may be, too. The "invited" or "optional" means that male guests are invited to wear tuxes and women may wear evening gowns or cocktail dresses -- what you would wear at a black-tie affair -- but you don't have to. It's fine for men to wear nice dark suits and for women to wear dresses that aren't necessarily Oscar-night material. If the invite just says "Black Tie," then guests are expected to attend in full formal attire.

What will we do with all this "white space"?
There's a vote coming up this week in Washington that will have a big impact on how you use the internet, what's available to you, how much faster you'll be able to get things online. On Thursday, the FCC is expected to open up unused parts of the broadcast spectrum, a lot of people call it "white space". This is space that was positioned to be something of a buffer between television stations but such padding is proving less essential since the conversion to digital TV.
On today's show, we talk to Glenn Fleishman from Wi-Fi Networking News and The Economist about how the spectrum works and what kind of new space we're talking about. We also check in with Tim Wu from Columbia Law School about the companies that will look to use the space and what it all might mean for you and me as internet consumers.

text: Since 2 days ago, I see big improvements in ranking of my Pandalized site for some keywords. These jumps I noticed are from about #20 to #1-#7. Haven't seen my page on #1 for a long time. However, this is just for select queries, while rankings for much greater number of other queries are the same like before. I haven't done anything special to get these top rankings I have now. It looks like they've just taken random pages to rank on the top.
