April 2012 issue:
Students go under ground
Dr. Jim Crovetti, associate professor of civil, construction and environmental engineering (C2E2) is taking some of his students below ground as part of the Student Centered Learning Initiatives program featured in earlier issues of AHOYA.
A soils course; soil properties, soil behavior and shallow foundation systems, retaining walls and spread footings; is a requirement for all junior-level students in C2E2. As part of the Student Centered Learning Initiative the laboratory sequence of this curse is being redesigned to allow students to discover and hopefully appreciate what is hidden underground, including existing soil deposits and completed foundation support systems. To date, two new capstone experiments have been developed which will provide students with a better appreciation of lateral earth pressures, shallow footings and deep footings. Additional experiments will be developed over the next 5 months to complete the overall re-design of the laboratory sequence.
A table-top experiment has been designed which will allow students to induce increasing levels of lateral earth pressures to various retaining wall structures to provide a direct link between active earth pressure forces and retaining wall stability against overturning and sliding. A second field experiment has been developed to utilize the outdoor soils pit, an 8 ft. x 8 ft. pit adjacent to Engineering Hall, to demonstrate the load bearing capacity of shallow and deep foundations. A small isolated spread footing, between 18" x 18" and 24" x 24" will be placed over the clay soils in one quadrant of the soils pit and loaded to a maximum pressure of 10,000 psf, simulating the design bearing pressures for the isolated spread footings in Engineering Hall. The load deflection behavior of the footing will be collected and compared to theoretical values discussed in class. A second series of tests will be conducted during the same experiment to examine the behavior of deep foundations (piles). The pile foundations will be represented by 1-2" diameter closed-end pipes, one driven only into the clay layer (skin friction) and one driven to rest on the underlying sand layer (point capacity and skin friction). The pipes will be instrumented with strain gages at the top and bottom to illustrate the load shedding behavior of these two systems.
EWB featured on Milwaukee radio
Elyse O'Callaghan, engineering student and a member of Engineers Without Borders, along with Bernard Amadei, founding president of Engineers Without Borders USA, discussed the profession's commitment to social welfare in the world. Amadei presented the keynote address at Marquette University's Mission Week in February.
Interview appeared on "Lake Effect" (WUWM-FM), March 14, 2012.
MU record broken
Jonathan Kusowski's, Eng '11 and current graduate student in civil and environmental engineering, program record in the men's weight hammer throw highlighted the first day of competition for the Marquette University men's and women's track and field teams at the 2012 BIG EAST Conference Indoor Track & Field Championships in New York City.
Kusowski's record throw of 63 feet, 1/4 inch (19.21 meters) placed him second overall in the event and earned eight points for the Marquette men, who sit seventh in the team standings after five scored events.

Prince Philip on Design
H.R.H. Prince Philip shared his genuine frustration with poor design in this insightful interview upon the 50th anniversary of the Prince Philip Designers Prize. He believes that consumers have become too tolerant of bad design. The next time I'm trying to squirm between the entertainment unit and the wall, with a cable between my teeth, a flashlight in one hand and a wiring diagram in the other, I'll take comfort in knowing that even the Royal Family shares my pain!
Link to the interview on YouTube
Asked about how design has changed over the past 50 years, Prince Philip replied that the trend to design by corporate or government committee has reduced the chances of producing exceptional designs.
He also feels that designers on contract create more innovative designs than staff designers. This is because a contractor knows that her employment is temporary, while an employee always fears that hers is! Thus employee designers are inclined to play it safe by complying with their employer's opinions rather than truly expressing themselves. He has observed that success results from giving a designer the authority to make design decisions. I would call this concept "empowerment" and say it's still all too rare, despite being a popular management buzzword.
Seth Godin shows how "This Is Broken"
Seth Godin is a prolific author and blogger on marketing and other business subjects. This is his hilarious presentation about how poor design turns off customers. So many things to learn from here! How can we make these flaws look as obvious to us at the design phase as they look to the user of the finished product?
Link to the video: Seth Godin at Gel 2006 from Gel Conference on Vimeo.
They Didn't Teach Me Design in Engineering School
They didn't teach design when I went to engineering school.* It wasn't until after graduating and beginning work that I was faced with the challenge of coming up with brand new solutions for problems. Figuring out where to start is always the hardest part. A blank document can be the scariest thing in the world!
I once worked with an architect and it was enlightening. You might think there's a lot of similarity between architects and engineers, but if you do, you're wrong.
Push, Pull, or imitate Maxwell Smart?
Have you ever been confused by a door? Push or pull? Which side opens? Is it locked? It's not your fault! The designer screwed up.
If you're running a shopping mall or a store or an office, you need customers to come into your building. Unless it has a drive-through or a take-out window, that's a necessary requirement for business. It's amazing how often a poor customer experience starts right here. Designers have no excuses. It's not like doors are new technology. Everybody's seen and used lots. There must be some best practices guide out there somewhere.
Nobody likes being embarrassed, but it's hard to look good when you're colliding with a door that swings opposite to what you were expecting. Do you not tense up when approaching a bank of doors in a large building? Many of us have even developed coping mechanisms just for this situation. I employ logic: look for the hinges and try to devise how the door operates. One of my friends aims between two doors, simultaneously pulling on one and pushing the other. Others hesitate to observe and then imitate the successful users.
Real or Artificial?
Real or artificial? When it comes to Christmas trees, this is an ongoing and contentious debate. I'm a hard-core proponent of the artificial tree for the following reasons:
Some assembly required
Not much appeals more to an engineer than the opportunity to assemble something, especially when it comes in kit form and is guaranteed to go together smoothly! Modular construction – sweet! IKEA furniture looks like IKEA furniture, it's true, but man is it fun to put together! Assembling a Christmas tree could only be better if some special tools were required.
The first family tree consisted of a green wooden pole and individual branches. Some of my fondest Christmas memories are of Dad bringing out that great big box and letting us help sort out the branches. The branches were colour-coded with a little bit of paint at the base of the stem. Trying to differentiate between 'red' and 'copper' was a challenge I looked forward to each year. Later, my siblings and I were allowed to drag the box out of the crawlspace and assemble the tree by ourselves. This was probably a greater privilege than being able to use the car. My parents might still be using that tree if the crawlspace hadn't flooded, turning the box to pulp and making a mess of the tree.
Unfortunately, Christmas tree design has advanced considerably and the tree I obtained for my first house is an umbrella style. It does have three sections, but most of the thrill of assembly has been removed. I am left to admire this improvement and wax nostalgic about the good ol' days when I had to install each individual branch. Almost makes me with I had grandkids to tell the story to.
Nothing Good Ever Happened In A Box Canyon
The investigation into a 2004 accident raises many questions, and disturbingly, it doesn't provide any answers. Would your company work safely if there were no enforcement? How safely would you work if you knew no one was watching? Does your safety depend on people who no one is watching?
A U.S. airline was contracted by the U.S. government to provide cargo and passenger service in Afghanistan. Legally, they were under U.S. regulations. Practically, they were unregulated, as there were no inspectors in Afghanistan.
One morning a flight crew decided to fly into the mountains, instead of around them, just for fun. They ended up flying into a box canyon. '"At 0803:21, the first officer stated, "yeah you're an x-wing fighter star wars man," and the captain replied, "you're [expletive] right. this is fun."'* Less than 20 minutes later, as the crew attempted a 180º turn, the plane hit the canyon wall.
Let's See What This Baby Can Do!
One sometimes hears, "The only thing faster than a company truck is a rental!" The Canadair Regional Jet 200 (CRJ200) can carry up to 50 passengers and is capable of altitudes greater than 41,000 feet (12,497 metres). Capable of 41,000 feet in the same sense as the average pickup truck is capable of 96 mph (155 km/h) – you can do it, but there's no valid reason to.
A "repositioning flight" is when a passenger aircraft is moved from one airport to another without passengers. Some pilots see this as an opportunity to fly aggressively and enjoy testing the limits of the airplane. Several accidents prove that sometimes they end up exceeding their own limits.
Having just reached 41,000 feet, the captain told air traffic control, "We don't have any passengers on board so we decided to have a little fun and come on up here." The plane impacted the ground less than 25 minutes later.
Can Too Much Privacy Kill You?
It's not unusual for an employer to check the references of a job applicant. Unfortunately, it is unusual for those references to be useful. Privacy legislation and the threat of lawsuits make many afraid to provide a complete and open evaluation of a former employee. Read about this accident and see if you agree that privacy can create a significant safety hazard.
At Airline #1, a pilot was employed as a first officer. He was reprimanded four times over two years for not following procedures. Airline #1 gave him a letter of reference stating that he had performed well.
Airline #2 hired the pilot as a captain and then demoted him to first officer for repeatedly violating standard operating procedures (SOPs).
Part 10: Conclusion – Shuttle Crew Safety Could Be Improved
Some things have changed for the better. Debris from the Space Shuttle Challenger was dumped into an abandoned missile silo. Out of sight, out of mind, perhaps. Even the data was not catalogued for use in further investigations. The Spacecraft Crew Survival Integrated Investigation Team (SCSIIT) lamented that, "The lack of debris for comparison and methods of data preservation made the Challenger data essentially unavailable for this investigation."
Not so with the debris and data from Columbia. Both have been preserved to allow further investigation and research into the development of future spacecraft and crew survival equipment. Given the timing of the Columbia Crew Survival Investigation Report, the SCSIIT members might not have had any other option to make their work meaningful. Design of space vehicles for the Constellation program, which are to take astronauts to the Moon and possibly to Mars, has already begun.
On the other hand, as a result of the Challenger accident, NASA made some substantial changes to improve the survivability of a Space Shuttle accident. Unfortunately, the Columbia accident does not appear to have initiated much in the way of further improvements, despite a demonstrated need to do so. Following the report of the Columbia Accident Investigation Board, the Shuttles were returned to service, not waiting for the Columbia Crew Survival Investigation Report.

About 100 people, some showing up at 2 a.m., turned out Thursday to apply for residency at the City Center at Deer Creek housing development in New Berlin, according to the project developer.
One of four 34-unit buildings will be ready for occupancy by Sept. 1, with the other three ready by November, said Patrick Shanahan, a vice president of asset management for MSP Real Estate.
Eighty-six of the first 102 units at the development, at 15155 W. National Ave., are being marketed as affordable housing units, reserved for multifamily residents earning no more than 60% of the median income of Waukesha County, according to information provided by MSP.
The fourth building, also affordable housing, will be available to seniors 55 and older, Shanahan said.
All applicants will be subject to credit and criminal background checks and will be required to provide rental references, he said.
Approval will be on a first come, first served basis. It's probable not all of the applicants who showed up Thursday will meet qualifications, so anyone interested is still encouraged to apply, Shanahan said.
In April, New Berlin reached a settlement with federal authorities in a discrimination lawsuit filed against it by the U.S. Justice Department after a July 2010 decision by the city Plan Commission to rescinded initial approval of the development. A judge approved the settlement.
Anyone interested in applying for residency at the project may call (262) 754-0081.

A nesting colony of Great Blue Herons is located in Beacon Hill Park, within a few minutes walk from downtown Victoria. The colony has been under attack lately from Bald Eagles who occasionally nest nearby, causing a small controversy amongst locals, some maintaining that the herons should be protected while others say that the eagles and herons are natural enemies and the attacks are simply nature taking its course. However, the herons are a small and at-risk population while the Bald Eagle is thriving - estimated population in BC is 20 to 30 thousand, about a third of the North American total. In any case, it seemed like a rare privilege for a city dweller like myself to be able to approach such a splendid creature so closely and I hope the eagles will find something else to eat.

I hope people will allow Nature to work things out. They have been doing it for eons and have a lot of experience. Both birds are beautiful but to a bird, another bird represents some kind of problem in many cases and they have to work it out.
Imagine this:

The 20th anniversary of the 1994 Northridge Earthquake has been covered by news media throughout the southland with stories that revisit the disaster; told mostly in words and pictures that quantify the quake's toll in lives and property. I've spent the last couple of weeks viewing hundreds of videotapes of our coverage, and you can look at some of what I found by clicking on the many videos we've posted. Rather than describing here what those pictures show so clearly, I thought I'd share with you an archive-related earthquake story.
When the temblor struck at 4:30 in the morning, it didn't awaken me. I was living in Pasadena at the time, and the San Gabriel Valley was well east of the quake's epicenter. That's not to say that the jolt wasn't felt over a wide area – it was – but it wasn't until I got on the freeway, headed toward Hollywood in the pre-dawn hours, that I began to witness the earthquake's impact. Portions of the Santa Monica Freeway in West L.A. had collapsed, leading to closures in both directions that soon had traffic clogged for miles. Cars and trucks were diverted onto surface streets, and it was slow going, with streetlights and traffic signals out of commission.
As my car crawled along Hollywood Boulevard I wondered what kind of damage I'd find when I got to the station. I managed a 50,000 tape video archive, and I had visions of mountains of tapes on the floor. Now in the early morning daylight I saw block after block strewn with bricks, stucco and glass. On residential streets, it seemed that every other house had lost a chimney. As I drove onto the lot I heard (and smelled) the diesel generator, which had kicked in when city power went out. Because we were on emergency power, not everything in the building was working, and it was dark and eerily quiet inside. I grabbed a flashlight and went to the library, expecting to stumble across a colossal mess – but not a single tape had fallen. Turns out a locking storage system we had installed kept the tapes in place. We were the only station in L.A. using this method of storage, and the only one whose tape library didn't crash to the floor.
In the days and weeks that followed the quake, Southern Californians faced plenty of challenges in getting their lives back in order, and considering the lives lost and property destroyed that day, a mountain of tapes is but a molehill.

The Edmonton Oilers have toiled at the depths of the NHL standings for years, and they've collected more prospect depth than any team in the NHL as a result. After eight seasons of struggling, Dallas Eakins and Co. believe they're about ready to turn the page and become a playoff team, and patience with those young stars is wearing thin.
Nail Yakupov -- the player taken with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2012 draft-- was a healthy scratch on Saturday night in the Oilers loss to Toronto. Via The Edmonton Journal, here's Eakins speaking about Yakupov's developlent:
"He's young and he has so much to learn about the proper way to play the game and once he grasps that, he is going to be dangerous when he steps on the ice."
The 20-year-old forward opened his NHL career with a team-leading 17 goals and finished fourth on the Oilers in total points (31). Through four games this season, Yakupov has yet to register a point, which Eakins believes is starting to affect his mental approach to the game:
"The kids' passion is to score and he was just going to take it all on himself to do that. I don't care how good you are, you can't produce by yourself in this league. You have to use your linemates, so it was more of a reset button for him. He can come in fresh with a new perspective."
However, Yakupov expressed that he's not overly interested in a new perspective:
"I'm going to play my game. I'm not going to change but maybe play better without the puck, or forecheck more, but I love playing with the puck. I really don't like skating all the time, and forechecking, and hitting somebody every shift. I don't think it's my game."
Rumors have been circulating about the coaching staff's frustration with their exuberant, young forward. Whether this is an instance of working through growing pains remains to be seen. Speculation is already starting to bubble in Russia, as the head coach of his former team, Neftekhimik Nizhnekamsk of the Kontinental Hockey League, stated that he thinks Yakupov would be open to joining the KHL.
#Neftekhimik HC: 'Nail's father saw possible future problems back in summer' #Oilers #NHL #KHL (2/2)— Igor Eronko (@IgorEronko) October 14, 2013
While that scenario seems unlikely at this time, there's no question that this situation has the potential to boil over if Yakupov and the organization can't get onto the same page. Eakins told Yakupov that he has four wingers ahead of him on the team's depth chart and that it's on him to prove he deserves more time than them. It's believed that Yakupov might be a healthy scratch again when the Oilers play the Washington Capitals on Monday night.
His next chance to crack the lineup would come against the Pittsburgh Penguins on Tuesday night.
Update: The Oilers have announced that Yakupov will be a healthy scratch on Monday night.
Yakupov will not play tonight. "I really liked our group of forwards last game. We'll stick with the same group." @dallaseakins— Edmonton Oilers (@EdmontonOilers) October 14, 2013

12 Teams of five took part in the 2013 Rotary Challenge, competing at archery (above) and five other events. A great day was had by competitors and spectators alike.
The event raised £940 for charity, £800 of which has already been allocated to the Teenage Cancer Trust, a charity Rotary Club of Hythe already supports.
Six members and partners from Hythe enjoyed sharing an Indian Meal with friends from our contact club at Abbeville. The meal was a organised by Abbeville Rotarian Anton Joseph to raise funds to build a little house in South India. For 25 euros we enjoyed an aperitif, a three course meal with wine at the table, a great atmoshphere and real Rotary Fellowship.
About 20 members and families took part in the Clay Pigeon Shoot held at Dover, followed by a Picnic Lunch at Russell Gardens near to Kearsney Abbey.

Seven Rotarians and partners enjoyed meeting our friends from the Rotary Club of Abbeville, and sharing a splendid dinner. Even those of us with minimal French were delighted by the speaker, Pierre Schwinte. He is a most remarkable young man and it was good to be able to share his adventure to the "top of the world"!
The club are to be congratulated on a 100% participation in the Foundation 500 club, resulting in over £2000 being raised with over £1000 going to Foundation and Polio Plus. Winners of the January 2011 Draw (the second of seven) were:
Robin Hood, or Friar Tuck at least, came to Leeds Castle in the form of John Howard to persuade people to throw wet sponges at 'sinners'. Bravely taking their place in the stocks were John Howard, Mark Tague, Ken Berkin and President David.
With the rendering sounds of Land of Hope and Glory and Rule Britannia and other Proms favourites, 120 Rotarians and friends attended our first Proms in the Hall Concert direct from the Royal Albert Hall and Hyde Park on Saturday, 11th September at Hythe Bay School. The evening proved to be highly successful with drinks, food, hats and flags which gave the evening a real festive party mood with most party goers dressed in patriotic colours.
On Friday, 30th July, the Rotary Club of Hythe held their annual summer barbeque at the Hythe Cricket Club.
120 Rotarians, partners and friends enjoyed good food, fellowship and field games during the evening, together with demonstrations and displays of Hythe Rotary International Projects for the coming year.
International Chairman John Engelbretson thanked all those who helped and supported the event, which raised £1,300.
New President David Owen receives the chain of office from Outgoing President Dereck Hancock. The theme from both men was the was that everybody is valued.
Six Rotarians and four partners travelled to Doetinchem for a splendid weekend of International Fellowship and enjoyment.

An Illinois congressman and tea party favorite who drew sharp criticism for saying that abortions are never necessary to save the life of a woman because of advances in science and technology tried to stem potential political damage Friday, saying abortions might be necessary in rare circumstances.
Republican Joe Walsh did not make that distinction during or immediately after a debate Thursday night with his Democratic opponent, Tammy Duckworth, when he said he was "pro-life without exception," including for rape, incest or to save a woman's life.
"This is an issue that opponents of life throw out there to make us look unreasonable. There is no such exception as life of the mother and, as far as health of the mother, same thing, with advances in science and technology," Walsh told reporters after the debate.
He added that "health of the mother has become a tool for abortions any time under any reason."
Medical experts responded quickly, saying abortions sometimes are necessary to save a mother's life, including during ectopic pregnancies, which occur outside the uterus. The American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists said more than 600 women die annually from pregnancy and childbirth-related reasons in the U.S. and "in fact, many more women would die each year if they did not have access to abortion to protect their health or to save their lives."
"These inaccurate comments are yet another reason why The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists' message to politicians is unequivocal: Get out of our exam rooms," the college said in a statement Friday.
Walsh called a news conference to clarify his remarks, saying his pro-life views extend to protecting the lives of mothers, too. He said abortion may be necessary during rare cases to save a mother's life, though emphasized it's rarely necessary.
Walsh also took exception to Duckworth's comment during the debate that Walsh would "let a woman die rather than to give the doctor the option to save her life." He said Friday that the comment was "disgusting" and "a desperate quote from a desperate candidate."
The two are embroiled in one of the nation's most closely watched congressional races, Illinois' newly drawn 8th District.
Duckworth on Friday said Walsh's comments were out of touch and "put women's lives in real danger."
The Planned Parenthood Action Fund released a statement on its website calling Walsh's comments "alarming and erroneous."
"It is deeply troubling that he and some politicians have such a fundamental disregard for women and women's health," the statement read.
This is just the latest controversy for the freshman politician. Shortly after his 2010 election, he accused President Barack Obama of spending money "like a drunken sailor." He more recently accused Duckworth, a former Obama administration official who lost both legs in Iraq while serving as an Army helicopter pilot, of using her injuries to score political support.
Earlier this year, Walsh told a crowd at a town hall meeting that the Democratic Party's "game" was to make Latinos dependent on government just like "they got African-Americans dependent upon government." He also said there are radical Muslims in Chicago's suburbs "trying to kill Americans every week."
Walsh's congressional district was redrawn last year by Democrats as part of a once-a-decade redistricting process. The Democrats see the race as an opportunity to help regain control of the U.S. House.

It relieved a bee sting in minutes and reduced pain for more than five hours, according to one informal test -- better than eight other over-the-counter products and home remedies, including every sting cream and stick tried . Toothpaste's other "off-label" use? Zit zapping. Put a tiny dot on a pimple before bed. The pimple should be dried out and less noticeable by the next morning. But use only in emergencies. Toothpaste's fluoride can make acne worse, says Adam S. Stibich, MD, director of the Dermatology Clinic in Hot Springs, Arkansas.

This is a short, very easy flow that forms in a gully about 100 feet left of and around the corner from the main falls. It's a great beginner lead, or a more adventurous way to head up top to set a TR on the main falls or Left Flow.
There's a good-sized pine tree at the top for an anchor.

Roy Halladay versus Kyle Lohse in Game 1 of the Phillies/Cardinals NLDS. It reads like such a total mismatch. It is such a total mismatch, nevermind Lohse's 3.39 season ERA. And in the end, Game 1 wound up reflecting just how bad of a mismatch it really was. It just took kind of a funny route to get there.
With the Philadelphia crowd buzzing in anticipation of another World Series run, Halladay allowed a single with his second pitch of the game. Two batters later, he walked Albert Pujols on four pitches, and the very next pitch after that was a fastball down the middle that Lance Berkman launched out to right field. Four batters in, Halladay and the Phillies were behind 3-0, and the crowd was brought to a stunned silence. A relative silence, anyway, for Philadelphia.
But looking back now, we can interpret Halladay's first inning as an act of generosity, as he spotted the Cardinals three runs just to try to give them a chance. Because after the first inning, Halladay went back to being himself.
Skip Schumaker led off the second inning against Halladay with a ground ball single. What follows is a complete list of Cardinals baserunners against Halladay after that:
Nothing. After Schumaker, Halladay retired 21 consecutive batters before giving way to Michael Stutes for the top of the ninth. In his eight innings, Halladay threw 105 pitches, walking one while striking out eight.
So about that early 3-0 Cardinals lead. Did it hold up? As you've already figured out, it did not hold up. Not even close. But for whatever it's worth, it did hold up for a while.
Lohse actually retired the first ten Phillies before Chase Utley ripped a double of the wall in the fourth. Utley would later score on a single, but the Phillies still trailed by two, and they still trailed by two going into the bottom of the sixth. The Cardinals were, at that point, 12 outs away from a pretty stunning win.
But they wouldn't get it, because it was in the sixth inning that Lohse - or the Phillies - blew up. A pair of ground ball singles gave the Phillies two runners with one out, and Ryan Howard at the plate. In a full count, Howard fought off a tough low changeup, and was rewarded with a hanging changeup two pitches later that he deposited in the right-center bleachers. With that, the Phillies were up 4-3.
They weren't done. Shane Victorino followed Howard with a single, and then Raul Ibanez got another hanging Lohse changeup that he lined over the right field fence for the second homer of the inning. In minutes, a two-run Cardinals lead turned into a three-run Cardinals deficit, and Lohse was trudging slowly to the dugout.
A 6-3 late lead is generally secure enough, but the Phillies only continued to add on. They scored three off Marc Rzepczynski and Mitchell Boggs in the bottom of the seventh. They added two more off Boggs in the eighth. The Cardinals cashed in with some garbage time offense in the ninth, but at no point was the outcome in doubt, and the Phillies took Game 1 by an 11-6 final.
For more than half of this game, the Cardinals had the lead. But against Halladay, Lohse had to be perfect, and in the sixth, he paid dearly for two bad mistakes that changed the game entirely. Now the pressure is on Chris Carpenter to win Game 2 against Cliff Lee, even though Carpenter will be working on short rest for the first time in his career. One game in, the Phillies have the Cards just where they want them.

FWC has announced changes in lionfish management that will allow for increased harvest opportunities.
Lionfish are a nonnative invasive species that threaten Florida's saltwater fish and wildlife. Lionfish prey on our native species and are known to reproduce and spread quickly.
FWC announced harvesting invasive lionfish no longer will require a fishing license when using
certain gear, and there is no recreational or commercial bag
The detailed changes:
The changes do not allow
spearing in areas where spearfishing is prohibited and apply to state waters
only, which is from shore to 9 miles in Gulf of Mexico waters and from shore to
3 miles in Atlantic waters.
"The Florida Fish and Wildlife
Conservation Commission hopes that by increasing the opportunity for people to
harvest invasive lionfish, we can limit the impact this nonnative invasive
species has on Florida's marine fish and wildlife," said Jessica McCawley,
director of the FWC's Division of Marine Fisheries Management.
"We also want to
express our gratitude to everyone, especially divers, who already go out on a
regular basis to harvest lionfish." McCawley said.
The changes, enacted by an
executive order, apply only through August 2013.

Scattered Clouds
31 of 51
Mystikal had separated himself from Master P.'s No Limit company by the time he recorded "Let's Get Ready," and it shows. Mystikal brings his hard-rapping, grunting style to the 2000 album, dropping the thuggish No Limit sound for a more lavish production.
On the record are two of Mystikal's biggest hits, "Shake ya ***" and "Danger," that were top 15 singles on their release. The rest of the album is less club friendly but still features the wild rapper's spontaneous hollers and howls. On "Ain't Gonna See Tomorrow," he makes a plea for a better society that he feels won't happen until he's dead and gone. The album closes with "Neck uv da Woods," which as an Outkast operation mixes it up a bit, sounding more like Mystikal is the guest artist and not the other way around.
"Let's Get Ready" was the beginning of a bad period for Mystikal – he's released just one album and spent six years in jail since the release – but here he's on top of the hip-hop world. And with a recent Jazz Fest appearance under his belt and an album that is expected to be released in the next year, he may climb back to the top again.

YoLinux LDAP Tutorial: Deploying OpenLDAP 2.x/1.2
LDAP Directory Server Installation and configuration
Description: Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is a means of serving data on individuals, system users, network devices and systems over the network for e-mail clients, applications requiring authentication or information. The LDAP server is a means of providing a single directory source (with a redundant backup optional) for system information look-up and authentication. Using the LDAP server configuration example on this page will enable you to create an LDAP server to support email clients, web authentication, etc. We have many useful links for other LDAP deployments. LDAP can also be distributed in a hierarchical fashion but my examples refer to a single LDAP server. This tutorial will cover the setup and configuration of an LDAP server on Linux, the loading of data and use. Once configured, I recommend "gq" as an admin tool. (Note: Red Hat no longer ship with gq but it can still be downloaded and compiled manually.)
Simply put, this tutorial will enable you to create an LDAP server to which your e-mail clients (Outlook, Mozilla, Netscape, etc) can connect with their address books. It will allow one to search the LDAP database for people's e-mail addresses which are then pulled into the address list. Try it out with Thunderbird, Mozilla, Netscape or Outlook on our LDAP site ldap.yolinux.com for a demo. Cool eh! You can also try out authentication by pointing your application to authenticate at ldap.yolinux.com.

LDAP can provide a central directory of information for:
Note on email clients:
For other e-mail clients such as Outlook, see the University of Alabama (UAB) LDAP client tutorial. Note that Outlook Express and Outlook 2000 are configured differently than Outlook 2000 professional. For MS/Windows users I have found that the Qualcom Eudora mail client to be the most advanced at supporting LDAP functionality and searches. Also see the Megawebhost.com LDAP E-Mail Client Configuration tutorial
More on LDAP: LDAP data entries are organized in a "Directory Information Tree" (DIT) which may be divided among servers defined by their organizational association. When a request is made to an LDAP server and the information is not available locally, LDAP can use it's referral capability to seek this data from the other servers in the tree structure. In this way a global network of LDAP servers appear as a single server. This tutorial covers the use of a single LDAP server.
LDAP data can support more than address directory services. It can act as a DNS and propagate data to other servers. It supports a client server protocol to supply data for authentication (passwords) in support of apache, squid, sendmail, NFS/NIS, PAM, POP, IMAP or any client written to support the LDAP protocol. In this way one database can hold all of the login/authentication information for a unified login across the enterprise. The OpenLDAP server software includes two daemon server services:
There are a plethora of Linux e-mail clients which claim to support LDAP. I have had my best luck with Netscape 4.7x. Microsoft Outlook will support LDAP searches for an individual name or partial string. For the MS/Windows platform, Eudora seems to support LDAP the best by allowing very sophisticated queries. The Linux "Balsa" e-mail client supports LDAP but it downloads the entire address book with no search filters. This can be cumbersome if the LDAP address book has a large number of entries. (They obviously tested with a small address book). One can perform the same search in Netscape by entering a "*" to download everything. Most email clients support a search for email address containing "@" to get all email addresses.
The e-mail client has to be configured to point to the LDAP server (i.e. ldap.your-domain.org) and must be given a "root" in the directory tree from which to begin searches. From this information the e-mail client can search the LDAP server for e-mail addresses which can be pulled down to the local client.
Note that Microsoft Outlook Express and Outlook 2000 are configured differently than Outlook 2000 professional. For MS/Windows use the Qualcom Eudora mail client as it seems to be the most advanced at supporting LDAP functionality and searches.
LDAP e-Mail Clients:
The following steps will lead to an operational OpenLDAP 2.x server:
(This will result in an operational LDAP server with data.)
Download and use the following two sample files:
Note for Fedora Core 3 and later: (OpenLDAP 2.2.13 and later) Add the statement "allow bind_v2" after the schema "include" directives in the file /etc/openldap/slapd.conf if you wish to allow the use of older clients.
Then execute the following commands as root:
Test with the OpenLDAP command line client:
Test with an email client:
Install the aWebDap CGI executable to provide a user web front-end for search and updates. [Demo]
If you wish to add a second domain try this file: fraternity.ldif
Read the rest of this tutorial to see what it all means!
To run a more complex example with an extended schema to optimally support MS/Outlook and Netscape Communicator see the YoLinux GILSE tutorial and example. If you are going to configure LDAP for your office, you will eventually want to follow this guide.
OpenLDAP Versions:
LDAP uses an object oriented approach to data and data modeling which includes object definitions (collection of data attributes and rules) and object inheritance.
The statements which describe the object classes and attributes are different in Open LDAP versions 1.2 and 2.x. Unless you require a unique custom configuration it is easiest to use the pre-defined object inetOrgPerson (RFC 2798) included with OpenLDAP 2.x or to define an new object which inherits the inetOrgPerson object schema.
Each LDAP data entry has a "Distinguished Name" (DN) by which it is identified. Each component of the DN is called a "Relative Distinguished Name" (RDN). Operations against the LDAP data include adding, deleting, modifying and querying based on a query filter.
Backup LDAP database with the following command:OpenLDAP 2.x
/usr/sbin/ldbmcat -n /var/lib/ldap/id2entry.dbb > /opt/BACKUP/ldap.ldif
Note that this backup may not be suitable for re-loading. The order is random if it has been modified. The object definition for the domain itself must be the first definition. If it is not then move it there manually so that it can reload successfully.
Using LDAP slapd slapcat method: slapcat -v -n 2 -l delta.ldif
Also see: Scripts and software tools to convert LDIF files to the useful ".csv" backup form. - (Some helpful tools I wrote)
File: schemp.ldif
Command: ldapadd -f schemp.ldif -h 127.0.0.1 -xv -D "cn=StoogeAdmin,o=stooges" -W
OpenLDAP 1.2:
[Potential Pitfall]: PAM misconfiguration:
[Potential Pitfall]: Ipchains/Iptables misconfiguration:
[Potential Pitfall]: LDAP won't start
[Potential Pitfall]: Directory access
[Potential Pitfall]: Can't access LDAP server with client

Excessive speed was blamed, in part, for a one-car accident on east Blanchard Road on Tuesday that left the driver in critical condition.
According to the Spokane County Sheriff's Office, the 23-year-old driver, whose name was not released, was traveling on Blanchard Road at around 1 a.m. when he failed to negotiate a curve and became airborne. The vehicle then struck a couple of pine trees prior to coming to rest.
The driver was transported to a local hospital.
Investigators determined speed and impairment were factors in the collision.

I'll post the best ones tomorrow and give credit to the authors.

The debacle brought forth by the New York Times Benghazi whitewash and comments from Fox News Benghazi sources referring to the report as "baloney" lead me to re-purpose a graphic created back in 2011 (almost 2 years ago to the day)...
Also, in case you missed it, check out my collection of 34 Benghazi memes here.
Add a comment
The New York Times is being accused of publishing a whitewashed version of the attack in Benghazi that concludes it wasn't terrorism, and liberals are EATING it up...
Power Line and The Weekly Standard (among others) destroy this myth here and here.
I thought this would be a good opportunity to compile some of the graphics that have been swirling around social media since September 11, 2012 that others have created along with myself that remind Democrats that terrorism or not (and it was terrorism) Benghazi is significant for a more important reason...

During the government shutdown last October I found this graphic made by some genius liberal...
Forget the guns part, I'm more interested in the FREE healthcare. Recently a cartoonist did a "composite sketch" of what the bozo who created this might look like...
I'd say it's pretty dead on.

Some you've seen, others you probably haven't...
It is inevitable that some liberal will find this post and comment on how disgusted, sexist, homophobic, racist and misogynistic it is.
They'll only say that as they'll have no comeback because they'll find such photos of Reagan and Bush simply don't exist (I already checked...it was an act of futility).

It's been a while since I've done one of these. Check out one I did for Democrats a couple of years ago here.

We catch up with young musician Remy Naidoo who got her big break on this programme and is now featuring on the Voice; we hear about Linguaswap – a new way to learn a foreign language; and the search for a child star to rival Shirley Temple and Mickey Rooney continues...
As you probably know by now, Shirley Temple very sadly died on Monday 10th February, aged 85. But although any death is a sad occasion, in the case of Shirley Temple, there is so much to celebrate about her truly remarkable life.
Well, they say when one door closes, another one opens. And by way of honouring the memory of Shirley Temple, we on MOONEY are launching a search for a new stage prodigy for the 21st century. .... A bright young star to join the long list of youngsters who have brightened up our screens, our stages, and our music players over the decades.
In short, were looking for the next Shirley Temple, if you're a girl. Or the next Mickey Rooney, if you're a boy! Remember Mickey Rooney??? Another great and long-lasting talent, throughout the last century.
So, what exactly are we looking for?
Well, you must be under 10 years of age.
You must be prepared to demonstrate your talent to the world. And by talent, we are keeping the door wide open for singers, comedians, yodellers, ventriloquists.............. well, it's radio. Maybe not ventriloquists!
And you must, of course, have the permission of your parents.
How do you enter??? Well, much like our "singing in the shower" competition, we want you to record yourself doing your little routine, no more than 3 minutes duration.
You can record on your iPhone, your smart phone, your computer, if it has the facility. Or even a more professional facility, if you want.
And then e-mail your entry email@example.com
Put the title "search for a child star" on the subject field of your e-mail.
And who knows?? If you are good enough, we might find a special outlet for your talents.... ? There's a little concert we run on this show .... It takes place show twice a year, in a certain premiere theatre venue ..... With a certain top-class orchestra???
We are really looking forward to hearing all your entries. Closing Date for all entries is Friday 28th February 2014

Lots of countries have national broadcasters. Ireland has RTE. The UK has the BBC - and the world's smallest country, The Vatican, has 'Vatican TV' and 'Vatican Radio' – which was set up in 1931 by Guglielmo Marconi himself!
It's run by the Jesuit Order and 200 journalists worldwide help supply it with programming including one Irish intern! The first ever intern in Vatican Radio!
His name is Michael Gannon, he is 33 years old, he's from Newbridge. He's training to be a journalist and he is an Ambassador for Down Syndrome Ireland.
He was in Rome with Downs Syndrome Ireland. Sean Patrick Lovett is the Director of English language programming in Vatican Radio and he gave Michael a placement at the radio station. So Michael, his Mum and his Dad took an apartment in Rome for 2 weeks while Michael did his placement.
Good Morning Kildare and Ireland was set up a year ago last March.

Hedgerows and the Law
Hedgerows in Ireland form important features in maintaining wildlife diversity and in establishing wildlife "corridors", particularly for birds. The commonest nesting birds found in hedgerows such as wrens, dunnocks, robin and willow warblers depend entirely on insects during the Summer months. In general untrimmed, thorned hedgerows containing species such as blackthorn, whitethorn and holly are favoured by birds as they provide ample food and also serve as a protection against predators.
Section 40 of the Wildlife Act, 1976, as amended by Section 46 of the 2000 Act, provides protection for hedgerows by providing that it shall be an offence for a person to cut, grub, burn or otherwise destroy hedgerows on uncultivated land during the nesting season from 1 March to 31 August, subject to certain exceptions. It is important that, where possible, necessary work to hedgerows is carried out outside this period.
It is possible in most cases to schedule and carry out necessary work to hedgerows outside this period. The legislation makes provision for works (other than road or other construction works) to be carried out for reasons of public health and safety under the authority of any Minister or a body established by statute that lead to the destruction of vegetation. There is also a provision to enable the Minister for Environment, Heritage and Local Government to request from the relevant Minister or body details of any such works together with a statement of the public health and safety factors involved.
It shall not be an offence to destroy vegetation in the ordinary course of agriculture or forestry. Also it shall not be illegal to destroy vegetation while preparing or clearing a site for lawful building or construction works.
It is the policy of the Minister to prosecute for offences under section 40 of the Wildlife Acts 1976 and 2000 and successful prosecutions have been taken under this section in recent years. Members of the public are encouraged to contact their local wildlife ranger and report instances where hedgerows are being destroyed during the prohibited period.
