I succeeded in importing the whole Python for S60 source into Carbide, compiling it and debugging some parts of it on device.
My overall experience so far has been much better than with any previous tool for ODD I've tried. Thank you, Carbide team!
I've found the following two small bugs:
- The default time given for SIS file installation through TRK is too short. It seems like Carbide sends the SIS file to the phone, issues the install command and waits for 15 seconds. If the installation doesn't complete within that time, Carbide sends the install command again, and again after another 15 seconds. If the third time fails, an error is displayed. The program installation still apparently continues in the background and after waiting for a while you can run the application and debug it normally. The application install timeout should be configurable separately.
Workaround: Increase the global TRK "Message retry delay" in Run->Debug...->Debugger from the default 2000 ms. 10000 ms was sufficient for the PyS60 package.
- The error message given if you forget to enter an executable to debug is very obscure -- It's a NullPointerException buried under a nested exception hierarchy. This error condition should be checked and a better error message given. See http://discussion.forum.nokia.com/fo...d.php?t=106689

A MOMENTARY INSIGHT exposed the usually suppressed and ignored voice of my fear: Am I to whither away in anonymity, until destiny envelops and wrests me from this world, voiceless and faceless?
What of the skills, expertise, my potential—of course all blessings from God—that have enabled me to accomplish past things I could brag about today? Will I now go to waste? Something somewhere beckons to me since I relinquished the outside world to discover the universe inside my home.
I am reminded of my traverse out of jahiliyah and into hijab. The crushing shock of invisibility—a feeling that struck me with an appalling realization of just how desensitized I had become to where my worth had come to lie: In my appearance. Just how addicted I became to attracting attention wherever I went. Never did I suspect the extent to which I had internalized the inside-out moral values of a hypocritical society.
It is the morality of Narcissus. He did not look at his reflection and say: "I love myself because I have such great character." He said something more along the lines of "I love myself because I am the paragon of beauty—look at these people throwing themselves at my feet!"
When such an evanescent quality grips our senses, then an obsessive compulsion takes root in our consciousness to maintain that image of whatever it is we think we are, we want to be. And yet there was always that nagging awareness that I was a mere object, a feeling I despised.
Ironically, hijab represented to me another kind of object, an "un-person," someone whose identity is suffocated, lost in a void with no power of expression. It is as if to be exposed is to be, while to be concealed is not to be. Even so, Islam was calling me, clearly the healing to all my ailments, and hijab came part and parcel.
Once I got beyond the dread of the "ugly" hijab (which, incidentally, many family members found it necessary to confirm) and dared to take this stand, I found that hijab gave me autonomy from the mores of society, with which we relentlessly bombarded through images and narratives. It was not about others as I had thought, not about covering myself from peering, judging eyes. Rather, it was about me, giving me the strength to rein myself in and center my consciousness.
Although it took many years to refine hijab in my dress and my attitude, eventually it smothered the complexes, insecurities and addictions of a once subjugated soul. I can now say—alhamdulillah—I do not need a world to tell me if I am or am not beautiful, or rather, that I am worthy because of a skin-deep virtue. I now walk with dignity, not because an "other" acknowledges me, but because I metamorphosized from object to subject—no longer invisible am I.
Yet a lifetime later, I recognize the voice ringing betrayal, a call for affirmation and validation, only far more subtle, insidious. Again, with disgrace, I see the idols jutting through the deep layers of my soul. These are the icons for which we wake up and battle rush hour every day, for whom we forsake our children with strangers, for whose sake we endure soul-numbing work. Whether in academia or in the corporate world, for them we strive with a striving that could move mountains.
And let not my bias for "social activism" allow even its subtle deception to slip by here unnoticed, for a deeper look will show most of it among us Muslims to be just as entrenched a constituent of the academic/corporate profit-engine as the mess that it presumably means to "manage." To appreciate the ineffectiveness of today's dismembered approach to "enjoining right", let us ask how many activists are suspended in utter ineffectiveness by the idea of "making a difference out there," while home (that is, family) goes neglected and unfulfilled.
Whether it is the prestige of "Dr." in front of our name, the golden ladder of corporate careers, or the working-class glory of activism, most of us simply find our cozy niche in society and compete for degrees, promotions, positions, salaries, prizes, and, the icing on the cake, fame. Even if it be just in our own little corner of town, or our own small fold of minority.
Achievement. Purpose. Confidence. Power. When they come from worldly acknowledgement, they lift us up if only in the moment. Give us a high if only to offset the low. No, it is more than even that. These things give us the appearance of a face and a voice, the sickly coveted public presence.
It is an identity we do not question as long as our passport of social success is stamped with a visa to be seen and heard. Yet that face is no more than a reflection in the eyes of "Other," dependent on sources that themselves need affirmation and validation. Ephemeral.
An identity hinged on externals is not authentic. As recipients, we are not creative subjects who "make the road by walking" (Paulo Freire and Myles Horton). We are merely pacified objects that have bartered away the authority and dignity given to us by Allah for a false "security" among the masses, the ignominy of "toleration." All our "choices" in that objective state exist, in fact, within a narrow sphere of what society deems acceptable: Which look to wear, what degree to pursue, which career to track. Worse yet, the state of being an "object" is a posture of submission to a "subject." We have bowed to those who give us our statuses and labels, words and papers we deem important that a priestly ruling elite bestow in exchange for our servitude.
But there is another world that the society we take all our cues from has relegated to a vacuum and forgotten there. The thesaurus on my computer dashboard describes 'relegate' as 'dismiss to an inferior rank' with the example sentence: Islamic tradition and tribal custom relegate women to live at home. And there you have it, the essence of Western creed in one sentence. But that is for another essay, another day. We have dropped anchor in a society so crude as to openly spew that home, motherhood (and wifehood with it), are considered so low as to be a cause for insult. (Let us not even mention the ignorant and belligerent slur to Islam).
Islam, on the other hand, prescribes home as the realm of women and children (without forbidding them from society, for one neither implies nor proscribes the other—ideally, we should embrace home, and function in society!) What then is this place that modernity finds so despicable? Let us start with what home is not: Real estate developed as a way station for us to eat and sleep in between our outsourced "bona fide" life activity of work, education, entertainment, and culture. In that "home," or rather modernity's "anti-home," a mother and wife means no more than a maid to feed and clean children, while strangers in sterile buildings intimately shape their minds and hearts.
Home bestows refuge from a society where the woman with the wrong shape or look is not considered beautiful, or the Muslim in hijab is perceived as backward and repressed, or even the child who is innately shy is ruthlessly exposed. It is a sanctuary interposed in society in which our diverse forms and dispositions are honored.
A great folly of our thought is that our experience in the outside arena renders to us our personhood, even though relationships rarely transcend a superficial contact. On the contrary, it is the safe world of home where true relationships develop as we let our guards down and expose our full (and inevitably flawed) selves. Free to express ourselves, and hence to learn and overcome these flaws and help those around us mend theirs, the home is where we hone our characters and actualize selfhood. This home, residence of Islam, is no less than an unyielding reminder of our lofty origins, an affront to materialism.
To feminists, progressives, modernists, evolved apes one and all—post- and neo- (fill-in-the-blank): Remove the secular blinds of arrogance and look through your intellect, the lens of your heart. For anyone who delves just a little below the surface of the rhetoric will have to admit that there is no achievement more prestigious or consequential than raising the next generation of humanity. And there is not a more enriching or stimulating environment than the home for which to maximize the potential of this career. Nor is there a more healthy fabric for society than the weaving of dynamic inter-relationships that are borne from and nurtured in the home.
While the inner world of our imagination can hardly be contained by form, it nonetheless can be suppressed and broken. Similarly, the home is a reality that cannot be encompassed by the material economic world to which the Western tradition and corporate custom has relegated women. Yet it has been stripped bare. "Outside" is merely a limited domain, no more than a "sector," by its own admission, and not the other way around.
Admittedly, these are reflections from just beyond the fork in the road, too soon to really do justice, though I am certain that a sincere and steadfast experience will continue to unveil the dimensions of its reality. Yet the real questions are these: Is the home capable of providing valuable and purposeful work—work beyond cleanliness and sustenance? Can the home provide opportunities to work on the world's problems for all of us with the activist inclination? Does the home facilitate the education and edification of our children and ourselves? Can the home become a platform from which to realize and ascend a meaningful and influential path?
It is my contention that the answer to each of these is not merely a resounding yes, but that, in truth, there is no alternative residence wherein the solutions to the current, catastrophic human social predicament actually live. So what is the problem, my problem?
The difficulty seems to be that for one to embrace the home as defined in Islam, essentially one has to reject the society that rejects the home, denigrates motherhood, and turns upside-down wifehood. And here is the heart of the matter: Home situates us at the living center of that elemental, painfully intimate, infuriating and most humbling of relationships. Marriage. This is where I get implicated, so, thankfully, this is not an essay on marriage.
Furthermore, home is a painful reminder of the oblivion of community, without which we are isolated, weak and constrained. Despite this, if we cannot turn ourselves to embrace our homes, then we can never found a community (such as Madinah) because these are intertwined acts, of stepping out of the mainstream as we find value in our own selves (family) and each other (community), instead of statuses and labels; as we invest in and trust in our own selves (family) and each other (community) instead of the perceived power structures.
That is not all. For if we have invested so much of ourselves in the social narratives and political myths, then to reject society is akin to smashing a mirror—a mirror that we have formerly believed is us, and as such contains within it and takes with it all that we hold dear from the past, present, and future. The appearance of our shattered selves in the scattered shards is like death.
And yet is this not part of the believer's journey, the flight wherein we must, in the words of 'Umar ibn Al Khattab, die before we die?
In the world of my home, I have found (aside from endless cleaning and cooking) that there is a strange and new phenomenon: Quiet. Not the quiet that children can sabotage, but that of not running around at 55 mph like a chicken with its head cut off, to badly mix my metaphors. In other words, I have found solitude. Space. Time. All the things we run from screaming as they bring us face to face with our own selves. And what is more anxiety provoking and distressing than a schismatical, neurotic self that has been neglected at best, abused and oppressed at worse. I have found, as well, more invisibility. Cut off from society's external venues of value, I feel myself receding into the void of American cultural devalorization.
On the other hand, is it not the case that true value stays with me wherever I choose to go and whatever I decide to do? Since value is a measurement of something, there has to be a transcendent standard of what is valuable beyond the whims and desires of men, nor can it be dependent on the affirmation of "Other."
As true value comes, by way of guidance, from within, so must an authentic identity. Home is the fount where what is within ourselves incarnates so that it can be explored and cherished—if maturing into a "subject" is what we truly seek. For what could be more frightening, if intangible, than tearing down years of decaying psychological walls, unmasking our own God-given face, and exerting our own divinely inspired voice in a world hostile to genuine individuality and truth. It is an identity on which society's doors of opportunities shut—and maybe, and we seek God's refuge from this, its gates of persecution shall open. All societal acknowledgement, validation, and affirmation are withdrawn for anyone who reclaims his human right of subject-hood to the one and only King. We don't need to look any further than the prophets themselves to understand these acts and reactions.
Thus far, I fear we Muslims have only perfected the Western façade of object-ivity: There someone like me can hide behind the 'facts' and social narratives and no one can reject me because "I" am not there. Ha! They can only reject the facts, which is a ridiculously absurd thing to do anyhow, so I still get the last laugh.
Subject-hood, though, is the height of uncertainty. If the thought of others seeing who we really are is not terrifying enough, and it is for me, here we must walk on our own two feet, choose our own individual path, and defer to our own inner resources.
So, if you find this close gloomy, it is only because we, and our world, are in a most wretched state (ask the billions living under poverty and oppression). Then again, hope lies yonder just beyond the depressing, just over our fears. Instead of persisting in this depressing state—or rather, withdrawing from the reality of our pathetic condition and throwing ourselves into the cocaine rush of an imperial society—let us earnestly turn to God and hold onto the firmest handhold of Guidance, set our hopes high and follow the promise of Islam.
For as long as we call ourselves followers of Islam, we must dismiss out of hand the ignorant discourse of all those who would define Islam by sheer falsehoods, even if these be repeated without end in every public space under the guise of freedom of expression and objectivity. For we know the likes of these mean only to degrade Islam and us to a minority status, subjugated to the rule of men, and to make of this religion only a whitewashed and sterilized remnant of Islam at that. The truth is they have no more knowledge of Islam than they do all the falsehoods they attribute to God Himself. They do not have any knowledge of this. Nor had their forefathers. It is but a heinous word that issues from their mouths. They say nothing but a lie.
Should we finally acknowledge the futility of such a vain, iniquitous society of the real "un-persons," and long to turn wholeheartedly to God, the path begins with seeking and establishing our own personhoods.
And should we dare the endeavor of reclaiming our heritage and embarking on the prophetic struggle of faith and civility, believe not those who say that it is beyond our ability, out of our reach, a dream. For God did not require us to take on the world or its problems, nor did He ask us to bring victory to Islam. Indeed, how can we fix the world when we and our relationships are broken? It is a great mercy from Allah that we are responsible only to rehabilitate ourselves until once we change what is in our hearts then Allah will change our conditions.
On our journey, let us recover from the wayside the abandoned blessings Allah has provided for us: Home, as defined by Islam, is where our existence is fortified and draped in a mantle of dignity. Kinship is a real and potent mirror to ourselves. Marriage is the source of acceptance and love we have been spending our lives in search of. And, ah, parenthood! That is the most enriching of careers and eminent status !
Then before we know it, a collective presence of dignified human families shall emerge and bring out of extinction a genuinely Just Community, under the banner of Islam and the protection of Allah, for triumph comes only from Allah, ta'ala—even to the apparently most insignificant, weak, and meager of us.

Legendary Rock 'n' Roll Photos

Great set Chase. Jim Marshall is one of my greatest influences for the very reasons you cited. The level of trust and access the forefathers of music photography were able to establish is largely something we can only dream of in today's contemporary music business.
Cal July 5, 2012 at 10:13 am #
I wonder if it's possible that in 30 years we're going to look back on the music photography now and think any of it is legendary. I have to think not. The reason so many iconic photographs were made of these musicians is because it was everyone working together to build something. These days artists restrict access so much that everyone gets basically the same shots. Not to mention that when you're shooting live you're kicked out of the barricade before the show really even gets started.
Justin Thor Simenson July 5, 2012 at 10:28 am #
These are some great photos, they capture a great time in music too!
You should also check out another great photographer of this time, Douglas Kent Hall. http://www.douglaskenthall.com/
Thanks for sharing this Chase!

Well, people in the photos are legends. But I really wouldn't call the photos legendary. People might see this as legendary photographs maybe because they cant shoot celebrities like these even if they wanted to. Lack of money, fame and connections maybe?
I really love the articles posted on this blog, except for this one… I respect Jim as a photographer, but I really don't see the legend in legendary photos here.
I'm a fine art photography student, so it's just my opinion. Some of the photos tell stories here, but most of them don't. It's just shots of famous people.
Dylan w/tire and Miles in the ring are effing fantastic. Had the pleasure of meeting Jim back in 2009 for an APA event. His body of work has so many iconic images and that level of trust is at the core of every single one. He told a story of being onstage shooting that classic Hendrix shot (#4) and that he did it with a 24mm lens. Shows you how close we was really able to get to his subjects — both figuratively and literally.
Chris Blizzard July 6, 2012 at 1:52 am #
Some great shots, and yes, I wish I could get that kind of access (I'm working on it, and I'm building some relationships) but I also think it's good that it's hard to get. If everyone was given that access, the dressing rooms would get kinda full, there's be no room left on stage for the band, and the tour buses would smell even worse…
What I've found interesting recently, which show up in these shots too, is that often, with film shots, minor technical issues such as focus not being quite right, or shadows in the eyes, are tolerated, or possibly even ignored. With digital, they're not, and shots are thrown away because of them. (No real point to that speech there, but I thought it was interesting)
Christy Harper July 6, 2012 at 2:13 am #
I love these images! Thanks for the great inspiration
Jon Tiffin July 6, 2012 at 7:28 am #
In this day and age, why is the quote being sensored? Did Jim really put an asterisk in the middle of his fuck?
Amazing body of work, I'm just sayin'.
Bjørn Jansen July 6, 2012 at 8:17 am #
Hi Chase, i am not sure why are these shots are Epic. The Bands are epic, thats right. But these picture do not show any kind of Rock ´n Roll. I am Music Photographer for 9 years and i think i have done more epic shots than these.
I love your blog but this entry is
Rock on
R John April 3, 2013 at 1:30 am #
I'm with you Bjorn, the majority of these images are nothing more than grainy snapshots.
If others deem them important because of the subject matter then so be it.
There again if the photographer had such unlimited and unhindered access, then there's really no excuse for producing photographs of such low quality.
Saying that I do actually like one or two of them – at least the image of Johnny Cash has got some shadow on his miserable face.
eddieBaba July 8, 2012 at 9:51 am #
These are "Legendary Photos" because time has its imprint on them. Marshall used his personality to get his subjects in focus and make these legendary shots possible. Young and inexperienced photographers may not understand this, but as time passes they will. There is showing going on now WHO SHOT ROCK & ROLL at the Annenberg Space for Photography that you should see if you get the chance. Jim's well represented there. This is GREAT STUFF Chase!!!

"I worked hard but I never really considered it work. I always enjoyed myself and only took an assignment if I had complete control and access. My reputation was such that managers didn't f*ck with me. I had the trust of the artist. I would work with them and they knew I wouldn't f*ck around or do anything they didn't like." – my Hero!

You have brought positive a very magnificent points , thankyou for the post.
I had been wondering if you ever considered replacing the layout of your website? Its well written; I love what you have got to say. But maybe you can add a little more in the way of written content so people can connect with it better. You have got a great deal of wording for only having one or two images. Maybe you can space it out better?

The Selma Police Department says the suspect wanted in a residential robbery of an elderly man, has been arrested.
According to officials, 23-year-old Devontae Terrell Jiles is accused of entering a residence, overpowering an elderly man and making off with $620.
Selma police officers responded to a robbery call Friday in the 200 Block of Alabama Avenue.
When officers arrived they met with the victim, a man in his 80's. The victim told officers that he is unable to walk or stand on his own and was sitting in his chair when the robbery took place.
The victim's door was unlocked, and he was the only one home when the robbery occurred. The victim attempted to fight off the suspect but was overpowered and received an injury to his hand.
Jiles is accused of 3rd degree robbery charge and has been taken to the Dallas County Jail with no bond.

BK PR - Dr. King Day of Service - Jan 21, 2013
Brooklyn, N.Y. – LIU Brooklyn will commemorate the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on Monday, January 21, at 11 a.m. The program will include a screening of "We Shall Not Be Moved: Downstate '63," a short film created by LIU English Professor Deborah Mutnick about the civil rights protests at Brooklyn's Downstate Medical Center in the summer of 1963.

By Water
1. Evaluate whether your boat truly can make a substantial journey. Does it have engine or electrical problems that if they worsen could be life threatening? Be sure all systems work and make any necessary repairs.
2. Prepare your route at home using maps or electronic charting software. Load all waypoints into your onboard plotter. Bring paper charts to back up your electronics. Bring backup, handheld versions of your chart plotter and VHF radio. If you're heading offshore, be sure to have an EPIRB. You can rent one from BoatU.S. Foundation (www.boatus.com/foundation/epirb).
3. Research the weather patterns for your destination based on the timing of your visit. You should know prevailing wind direction and speed, rainfall predictions and potential sea conditions.
4. Do you carry enough gas or diesel in your integral tanks to make it to your destination with fuel to spare? If not, take enough extra fuel in bladders to complete the trip with a 10 percent cushion. Check with the bladder manufacturer about proper handling/stowing and fuel transfer.
5. Carry a full inventory of tools and spare parts for engines, pumps and tackle, and bring extra fuses for electronics. (www.sportfishingmag.com/spares.)
6. Fill out a float plan (www.floatplancentral.org) and leave it with a responsible person onshore. Arrange to contact that person when you arrive at your destination. If several hours pass and you don't communicate, the onshore contact can call the U.S. Coast Guard and provide your float plan.
7. Don't rely on the $3-special life jackets that do little more than meet your carriage requirements. Provide each person aboard a good-quality life jacket (visit www.uscgboating.org for information on proper devices). And it wouldn't hurt to wear them while in transit.
8. Bring all the tackle you think you'll need, plus spare spools, reel parts, line, leader and hooks. If you plan to fish a remote area, consider taking frozen bait with you.
9. Confirm reservations. Before departing, contact your destination and confirm your slip rental and hotel rooms. Also ask about the availability of your fuel type and its cost.
10. If traveling internationally, know where to clear customs and learn local regulations. All passengers must bring proper paperwork, and captains must know what documents may be required for their vessels.
11. You can often save money by taking your own food to far-flung outposts. But be sure it's well frozen, properly packed in coolers and stowed carefully. On any voyage of any length, you should bring enough potable water to cover transit and emergencies.
By Land
12. Before trailering your boat any distance, clean and wax it to help protects its finish.
13. Cover/remove/protect fragile parts like Lucite or plexiglass windscreens.
14. If you have an outboard boat, make sure to support the engine with its own flip-down brace or an aftermarket strut.
15. Secure your boat to the trailer. Roads can be rough, and boats can shift or come off if not properly tied down. Lock your trailer to the vehicle and lock the hitch to prevent theft.
16. Store tackle and other equipment inside your locked vehicle or hotel room.
17. Research trailer parking and ramps at your destination. Many lots fill early and may leave you waterless if you don't plan ahead.
18. If your boat and trailer are oversize (generally wider than 8 feet, 6 inches), contact the appropriate departments of transportation in every state on your route for the correct permits. To check state regulations, visit www.boatus.com/trailerclub/laws.asp.
19. Take a grease gun and extra bearing grease, a set of spare tires and a jack for your trailer. Other spares should include bulbs for all trailer lights.
20. Make sure your boat insurance covers your boat and trailer for everywhere you'll travel. Consider BoatU.S. Trailer Assist (www.boatus.com/trailerclub/tatow_tr.asp) or Sea Tow's trailering road service (www.trailercare.net) plans.

New high school graduates are typically admitted into University College where they begin their course work before transferring to a degree-granting college, such ast the BCAS, in their second year. However, there are three exceptions whereby incoming first-year students can be directly admitted into their degree-granting college:
To be accepted into the BCAS as a student transferring from another institution you must have:
To be accepted into the BCAS, a current UA student, attending University College or one of UA's other degree-granting colleges, must have:
To apply for admission into the BCAS, current UA students must file an Intercollege Transfer Form with their current college. For example students enrolled in University College should contact their academic advisor to request assistance with the Intercollege Transfer Form.
If accepted into BCAS, a student will receive a letter of acceptance and is required to meet with a BCAS academic adviser. During this initial intake appointment students will be introduced to BCAS policies, procedures and academic programs. In addition, within two weeks of admission, students will be informed of their assigned academic adviser. Students can locate their assigned academic adviser in ZipLine.
Students who are not admitted to BCAS will receive a letter explaining why admission was denied and offered an opportunity to meet with a BCAS academic adviser to explore academic actions to enhance their likelihood of meeting eligibility requirements for admission to BCAS in the future.
If you have questions, please consult with a BCAS academic adviser, by calling (330) 972-7880 or (330) 972-5297 to schedule an appointment.
Students accepted into the Honors College as arts and sciences majors are automatically admitted into the Buchtel College of Arts and Sciences.
Application information is available at the Graduate School page.

I've seem some Super A's with a rear rockershaft. I have none on my Super A, but it looks like I'll need one to put on a 3-pt hitch conversion?
While my Cub has one little arm sticking out, the Super A's I've seen have two large arms, curved downard at the ends and with two holes through them flatwise on the curved tips. It looks like the 3-pt conversion kits hook into these arms at the top.
Was this only supplied as part of the Fast-Hitch, or is this what is known as a 2-pt. hitch? Or...?

Routes Sorted
L to R R to L Alpha
This route is perfect for the one last push of the day, or if you are really good it's an awesome warm-up. It's located next to the Amphitheater The Morning Thunder rock makes up the south side of the Amphitheater. It is very easily seen from the road. From the trail, head right across some scrambling and up through a narrow gap onto the large belay ledge. Start on the left side of the face following the crack for about twenty feet. Continue up and right following a diagonal crack with some tricky moves. Finish about 15 feet below and right of the top of the rock. This route is a strenuous climb, don't expect an easy one-pitch 5.9. It pushes the limit of being a 10. Great climb, short, and fun!
Small and medium stoppers are very ideal. Cams from the smallest Aliens to a #1 Camalot. I never used bigger than a #0.5 cam, but if you are creative you might use something bigger. A top rope is possible after someone has lead the route, but best just sticking to trad.

Hollaback! Boston survey sheds light on harassment in the Hub
Hollaback!Boston today released the results of a first-of-its kind local study examining instances of harassment on the streets of Boston.
In August, 543 Bostonians responded to the survey, which found that 88 percent of respondents experienced harassment in Boston. Of those that responded, 97 percent said they were hassled on the street in the past year, and 63 percent said it also happened on the MBTA.
Most respondents, 92 percent, said they responded by ignoring it, although nearly half, 42 percent, said they occasionally yelled something at the harasser. Just 14 percent of people said they had someone intervene on their behalf.
About 87 percent of female respondents said they experienced street harassment. About 78 percent of people considered leering or staring to be harassment, and nearly all respondents considered touching, honking, degrading comments and blocking someone's path to be a form of harassment.
"We firmly believe that the solution is creating a community of active bystanders," said Britni de la Cretaz, co-director of Hollaback! Boston. "I think the (14 percent number) shows it's part of our society, that we just kind of accept it as something that happens. We want to teach people how to be an active bystander regardless of who they are. "
The volunteer organization, which is a local chapter of an international movement that fights street harassment, hopes the findings will influence the city's handling of street harassment and shed light on its prevalence.
"Ideally we'd like to take it to policymakers," said de la Cretaz. "I think the results are compelling enough to warrant more in-depth research and public education."

Originally built in 1908 to house one of Argentina's first flour mills, the building that houses the FAENA ARTS CENTER offers a rich historical backdrop for the myriad expressions of contemporary art. The main exhibition space, located in what was once the mill's machine room, has been painstakingly rebuilt while retaining original details from the early 1900s, when the mill turned out up to one thousand tons of ground wheat per day. Soaring ceilings, semicircular arches, bay windows and other hallmarks of turn-of-the-century industrial architecture serve to create a spacious, light-filled environment for a rotating array of international artists.

i was curious if anyone has given these a test run, im thinking about buying a set but cant find anywhere to get my hands on them aside from ordering. that look really solid and the expendable sling it perfect. but like i said i could be wrong does anyone have any experience with them?
I have been climbing on these for about a year and love them. When placed properly they are the bomb. Thinking about getting another set to add to my rack. Place and more than happy to fall on. My .02
i dont have them but have used my friends. They are the best hexes i have used and they are seriously bomber. The EXTENDABLE slings are great as well
I have a double set of these and use the first 3 (red yellow green) all the time in the rockies. They are cheaper than cams, even more bomber in a good placement and easy to beat in and out of frozen/dirty cracks. Aside from sounding stupid while walking, they are a great bit of kit. The extendable sling IS long enough in most cases to avoid clipping a draw. Unlike the dragon cams
I've been using them for two years now and really like them. I was climbing a really wandering pitch about a month ago, ran out of 2 foot slings and then came to a chicken head. I used the green one to sling it. I don't normally use them to sling features but it worked really well for me then.
I've had 'em for a year and a half and love them wayyy more than the WC hexes, the expendable feature is pretty stellar. I would highly recommend them
I have had the largest (blue) Torque Nut for maybe a couple of years. I don't carry it with me often, but so far I've had a positive impression: As others have pointed out, it's relatively light, it cams securely, and the extensible sling rarely needs further extension.
Those of you who use DMM Torque Nuts, do you ever find extending the sling to be harder than necessary due to the holes being a little too small?
Own the set - totally bomber and fun to use, but in most circumstancest where I can place a hex I can place something else nearby that's just -easier? That being said - I did just set a couple of these on a route the other day and I could have held myself and the horse I rode in on off the things.
I've had a set for over a year now and as far as I can tell, they're bomber, solid pro. I can get that they'd feel like toys- they are light. How could something so light save my heavy ass as it whips by at 9.8 meters per second squared? Of course, I have that same experience with my heliums- how in the unholy blazes does that tiny amount of aluminum rate to hold that much force? It makes no sense, but they just work as advertised. I have placed my torque hexes, weighted them, sat on them as anchor pieces, watched them take repeated load/unload cycles, sometimes with two followers weighting the anchor at the same time. I have seen nothing to leave me suspicious about these versus any other hexes.
I have the DMM and the WC hexcentrics. I use both. I can tell that the WC slings seem more durable but the DMM is extendable. But in the real world both seem to have the same durability... Also the DMM set is lighter than the WC for the same usable range but you have one piece less. I will suggest the DMM if you have some big nuts already in your rack. The sling holes of the DMM is bigger than the WC so when you will need to replace the sling by cordelette it can help...
This may make you angry, and seem like I'm being a jerk, but please don't get emotional, just look at it objectively and realize I'm actually doing you a huge favor: Hexes are for gumbies. The only real-world application for them is potentially in alpine climbing, and even then they are generally inferior to cams.
I've been using these for the past few months, probably taken them up ten or so routes. I usually place at least one on a route. I'm glad I bought them, and when they place well, are very confidence inspiring.
just got the red and yellow should be awesome for icy cracks

Sneed Awarded John McLendon Postgraduate Scholarship
Jacksonville, Fla.- Former Jacksonville University women's basketball player Tracie Sneed has been named the 2013 recipient of the John McLendon Minority Postgraduate Scholarship by the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA).
Sneed is one of six recipients of the grant which awards $10,000 to be used towards postgraduate studies. Always concerned with her play on the court as well as her studies, Sneed earned 2011-12 Atlantic Sun Conference All-Academic honors and graduated from JU in 2013 with a bachelor's degree in sociology and a minor in administration. In 2012, Sneed posted double-digits in scoring 17 times and established the second highest single-season free throw total in JU history.
JU's head basketball coach Yolett McPhee-McCuin is proud of Sneed for continuing in her education and pursuing a master's degree in athletics administration. "In the little time that I had with Tracie, I was immediately impressed with her focus and hunger for development and growth," said McCuin. "She is so deserving of the scholarship, and her JU family wishes her the best of luck."

BOSTON (MyFoxBoston.com) -- Boston police are investigating an attempted abduction that took place in the area of Southampton and Atkinson streets Thursday afternoon.
The female victim tells police she was approached by a light skinned, clean shaven Hispanic male in a small white car at about 1:30 p.m. The suspect asked her if she needed a ride and she said she was all set. At that point, the suspect reportedly lunged over and grabbed her by the head and neck in an attempt to pull her into the car.
The victim told police she threw a cup of soda in the suspect's face, at which time he threw dirt that was inside the car in her face. He then fled the area.
Police say the victim declined medical treatment.
At the time of the attack, the suspect was wearing a white t-shirt. The car he was driving had a missing passenger seat and may have been a van.
Anyone with information is asked to call Boston police at 617-343-4742. Tips can be made anonymously to CrimeStoppers at 1(800) 494-TIPS (8477) or by texting the word 'TIP' to CRIME (27463).

I believe my needs are very simple: I have a package file(12 licenses) for ACAD 2013, 2012, 2100 and 2010. I have another package file (9 licenses) for ACAD 2009, 2008,2007 and 2006. I want to combine these files so I can use my one server for all versions. Both files were generated on the same date. I have followed the tutorials and how-to posts on combining, but the results are always the same: LMTOOLS shows 21 licenses of whichever package is at the top of the file - i.e., if I append the 2009 license info onto the 2013 file, I get 21 licenses of 2013, 2012, 2011 and 2010. If I append the 2013 info onto the 2009 file, I get 21 licenses of 2009, 2008, 2007 and 2006.
Thanks in advance.
Solved! Go to Solution.
are all these on subscription?
were the 2009 products tied to any of the later version of the products
if they are on subscription you copying the package statement from each license file?
Both are subscription products. I'm copying both the PACKAGE and INCREMENT sections from the license file I wish to add.
try running the license file through this: www.licenseparser.com
to see if it does have the correct numbers
were the 2009 products tied to any of the later version of the products?
if the (9) 2009s are on subscription that means they were automatically upgraded to 2010 then 2011, 2012, 2013 if the 2009s serial #s are tied to an active subscription contract you aren't allowed to use them anymore per the Autodesk License agreement you have to get an exception from autodesk to use them again
so you need to make sure these aren't tied to any of the 2013 serial numbers
It's showing what LMTOOLS is reporting - 21 licenses for 2009 to 2006. See attached.
thats correct
are you also copying the plist information from the 2009 license file?
somewhere something is not getting copied and pastied correctly
Hi Robert,
As Darren mentioned above, as this is still on Subscription, your license would be upgraded to 2013 and would permit previous version use of current plus 3 versions back, which matches up with the license file that I see was created yesterday for 12 seats of AutoCAD 2013 (what shows on your attachment as 2009). Did you edit the components by chance?
Additionally, it looks like the other serial number that you are using corresponds to your 2009 license (9 seats), which was upgraded and rolled up into the the 2013 one mentioned above (12 seats).

Flower looks Beautiful but...........
By Sami
from Calgary, Alberta
I did good look at this pendant front and back because it is 5 star and why I am not so impressed like other ladies. One reason is back is not well made kind of look ugly and too simple. Front vail is too big and attache to ring also too big to me. Proportion is not very good. To me does not look elegant. Chain is also does not match bazel set casing and too light color.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I bought the garnet pendant...it is a beautiful deep colour, heavy piece, with impecable workmanship! Every bit worth the price! I wish I could have afforded to buy all the selections, but alas garnet is my favourite.
Nice Pendant but......
When finally I got this Garnet pendant some what I was a little disappointed. Garnet color is a bit dark for me I was expecting a more brighter red color, for this price chain look cheap too. I am keeping it but for me not 5 star prodcts.

Stunningly beautiful
By Gem_gen
from Québec City, Canada
I hesitated a long time before ordering this pendant, as at full price it was above my budget. It came down (very briefly) a lot at the last HGems visit. Man, am I ever happy it did! I purchased it in garnet and really, it is a masterpiece. The stones are well cut, of the same clarity and not a scratch on it. The silverwork is impressing. The format is perfect, not too bold not too heavy weight as I was fearing it could be. Jaw-dropping beautiful. It glistens. If you think this pendant sparkles, wait until you see it: it's like wearing a set of dancing flames – very, very pretty. Thank you Himalayan Gems.There is one thing I do not like, but it has nothing to do with the design of the pendant, and probably nothing to do with its fabrication. As soon as I opened the box, I was shocked at first by the beauty of the front of the jewel. Then shocked at the sight of its back: it was so tarnished it looked like an old 2nd hand item. I do not know how often this one has been worn every single day by successive customers for full months before being sent back to TSC but it was so dark I have not succeeded in cleaning it thoroughly so far: my special cloth turns black every single time I run a scrubbing session over it (the back part only). Even put it in the ultrasound cleaning machine for 16 minutes with 2 teaspoons of dishwashing soap in 20 on. of water: there is still black stuff coming from it. Makes me wonder if the back is really made of silver, or a lower quality silver, or something else. Or if it did get extremely dirty with time for being used by numerous previous customers. If someone else ever faces the same situation, please report it here, I am curious.

I originally bought this in garnet as a showstopper and was truly impressed with the quality, weight and design...so when it was on special pricing again I purchased the pearl and labradorite - thinking I would only keep one. Well, I LOVE them all so much, I kept them all. I cannot express enough how incredible these pendants are. I had no idea labradorite was so beaututiful, nor that pearls could look so opulent. Truly incredible pieces!!!!
By Jingle
from Dartmouth
I finally decided to buy this pendant in garnet when it came back into inventory and phoned in my order when it was at a reduced price. The color in the garnets is exceptional and now would like a garnet ring and earrings to wear with my lovely pendant. I had a difficult time putting the pendant on with the spring ring clasp but the chain is more substantial than other chains I have received with other purchases from Himalayan Gems. The pendant is not as large as it looked on camera but I love the size it turned out to be and it is a nice weighty piece. I can't imagine anyone being disappointed if they purchased this pendant in any of the colors.

My Second Pendant
By Love the Shopping Channel
from Caledon Ontario
I already own the labradorite. I recently purchased the green onyx bracelet and earrings and decided to try the green onyx pendant to match. I like matching my jewellery. The green onyx is just as beautiful as the labradorite. Not sure which one I like better. The silverwork is amazing and the stones match perfectly. Very nice. I bought both at a reduced price and am very pleased with my purchases.
By golden1
from Ontario
OMG when I took the pendants out of the pouches my mouth dropped. I missed out on them as a showstopper, so when I could get them at a great deal on sale (149.99) I knew I had to jump at the chance. I purchased the pearl and the labradorite. What a stunning piece of work. Wasn't expecting them to be that large but the bigger the better. Well worth it at the regular price now that I've seen them in person. Too bad the matching pieces are sold out. What a GREAT buy
By MEL
from Brighton
Great colour (garnets), gemstones larger than anticipated; also bought the earrings; great set for anytime of year.
Stunning Piece!!!
By Suzanne
from Toronto, ON
Bought the Labradorite....amazing, full of suble colour changes. It's a subsantial piece, but not too heavy, and goes with many of my outfits....those with blues/greens enhance the pendant. Great buy! And the chain is beatiful too...it's Italian sterling silver!

Parallels works better the more current/powerful your Macintosh is
About a year ago I had to rebuild my laptop on which I had installed a bootcamp partition in addition to my Apple OS. I had instal About a year ago I had to rebuild my laptop on which I had installed a bootcamp partition in addition to my Apple OS. I had installed drivers on both sides that allowed each to read each others' files, but I had to reboot the laptop to move between the Windows and Apple OSs. After sitting down with a genius bar specialist, we came up with a solution to let both OSs read each other's files within a single partition by using Parallels. The only problem was that I was installing it in my five-year-old MacBook Pro. I had upped the hard-drive and memory as far as I could, but was still limited by the processor's speed. It wasn't until this June, when by the happy confluence of my birthday and Father's day being only a week apart, that I got a new MacBook Air. I transferred my disk data (using a Thunderbolt to FireWire 800 adapter, which I highly recommend), and after adjusting a few settings, my systems now purr along, and I no longer wait for what seemed the eternities for the system to make the switches. Now If I could only reclaim an unneeded partition within the Parallels virtual machine I'd be set! …

I searched long and hard for an expedition weight…
Fabric: Polyester?
Price Paid: $55
I searched long and hard for an expedition weight top. Here is the fruit of my search. If this shirt has a "problem," it's that it is too hot for most activities. Snowshoeing through the woods with a 45 lbs. pack, I have comfortably worn this by itself down to 4 degrees (F).
When it does warm up, it seems to wick well. It is also very tough, recently I had been wearing it to play football in and no one managed to tear it.
The best part is, if you find a decent price it is no more expensive than base layers from more classic "outdoors" companies. Lots of compliments on the look too, the picture displayed above is the women's model.
One last note, I have the Patagonia Capilene 4 bottoms, and it is much thicker than them, yet it is very stretchy, unrestrictive material.

MALONE — More and more older dogs who have been loyal companions to senior citizens are turning up at North Country Animal Shelter.
Most times, their owner has died or moved into a nursing home or another place that doesn't allow pets.
Sometimes, the person can no longer feed and care for the animal properly, and their family or caregivers are unwilling to or can't take on added responsibilities of pet ownership.
That leaves older dogs like Shasha, Maya, Pup, Little, Lola and Georgiana awaiting adoption at the shelter.
The shelter is doing what it can to make older-dog adoptions easy, and it doesn't cost new owners a thing.
The free Senior-to-Senior Program gives dogs 7 years old and older to responsible owners who are 65 and older.
The program applies to senior cats, too.
The shelter tries to match people with dogs that fit their lifestyle, Shelter Director Shirley Morton said.
"If a dog was raised in a quiet, senior home, you don't know how they're going to adjust if it went to a family with younger children around or other animals," she said.
"We take the time to find a home similar to what they had."
The shelter is housing about 10 senior dogs, 30 puppies, 30 senior cats and 20 kittens.
Dogs are a little harder to place and can live as long as 15 or 16 years, so matching an older canine with a willing senior citizen makes sense.
"If it's a dog that's 10 years old, they'll live another seven or eight years, which is just fine for a senior person," said the shelter director.
Morton recently had to tell her family not to get her a puppy after she lost her 16-year-old dog to cancer.
"I'm almost 70, and if a puppy lives 16 to 20 years, I'd be in my 90s or not alive. It's not fair to the puppy to live longer than I would."
