Don Gustavson, State Assemblyman from Nevada's 32nd District, has signed the 10-4 Pledge for the Constitution. He is running for State Senate in District 2.
In the pledge are 10 affirmations on the nature of constitutional government and 10 promises for action while in office – such as:
- When Congress enacts laws and regulations that are not made in Pursuance of the powers enumerated in the Constitution, the People are not bound to obey them.
- My votes will always be in favor of the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of this State. Every issue. Every time. No exceptions. No excuses.
Here's a little more from Don on the subject:
"I have always been a strong supporter of the 10th Amendment and the Constitution itself including all of the "Bill of Rights". I was a co-sponsor to AJR 15, (Claims sovereignty under the Tenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution) during the 2009 Session of the Nevada Legislature. It is time for Americans and the States to take back their constitutional rights!"

Pope Saint Gregory the Great Comments
St. Gregory, born at Rome about the year 540, was the son of Gordianus, a wealthy senator, who later renounced the world and became one of the seven deacons of Rome. After he had acquired the usual thorough education, Emperor Justin the Younger appointed him, in 574, Chief Magistrate of Rome, though he was only thirty-four years of age. After the death of his father, he built six monasteries in Sicily and founded a seventh in his own ... Continue Reading

Dear St. Gregory, once again I thank you for the marvelous improvements that my students have shown in their communication skills, especially in expressing themselves in writing. I know that this has happened through your wonderful intercession and petition to our Father in Heaven. I dedicate this academic year to you: grant me ingenuity, creativity and ideas that my lessons may be delivered in a thought-provoking manner. I ask that my students respond to me in happy and eager tones, that learning takes place. May my lessons be dynamic and interactive. That each and everyone of my students develops their potential. I thank you for the continued good results in the last academic year. I offer the coming year to God, and I seek your prayers. Give success to the work of our hands. May I never tire, may my enthusiasm never wane. Perk me up each day. Give me wonderful rest as I lay my head on the pillow. Amen.

Dear Pope Gregory the Great,
Today is Tuesday, 3 September 2013 and it is your Feast Day. I want to thank you for saving my father's life as he lay on the operating table and clinging to his life as the senior surgeons performed a complex and highly dangerous surgery on his dying heart and lungs. His chances of survival were slim and we went on our knees and prayed to you that you will intercede the Risen Lord to save dad from dying on the operating table.
The senior surgeon told us that he was very surprised that the surgery went as well as it did. Dad is now recovering from his 10 hour triple bypass and lung surgery and I can't thank you enough for petitioning the Kingdom of Heaven on your Feast Day to save my fathers life. We have our dear dad with us some more years to enjoy life together and to love one another more than ever before.

The "cartoon" about Gregory, "Saints Fun Facts" says he became a priest at the age of 35. I thought Gregory was a deacon when he was elected Pope and was ordained a priest and bishop as a result of that election.

I like him because he showed himself a true pastor in his administration, his care for the poor and needy, and in spreading and strengthening the faith of the people. He wrote many works on faith and morals. God has blessed him the spirit of wisdom with which he ruled the church as pope. What I learn as a priest is to be an effective administrator imbued with the pastoral care of the people. Justice imbued with mercy and compassion.St.Gregory guide me on the way to reach Christ Lord whom you loved and served with love and wisdom.

Seattle Opera Celebrates Wagner Bicentennial in 2013
Under General Director Speight Jenkins' 30 years of leadership, Seattle Opera has become known as "America's Bayreuth," drawing worldwide audiences to its acclaimed productions of all of Richard Wagner's major works, especially to the company's signature work, Wagner's ambitious four-opera cycle, Der Ring des Nibelungen. To date, opera-goers from 22 countries and all 50 states (plus the District of Columbia) have purchased tickets for Seattle Opera's 2013 Ring.
Educational and community engagement programming honoring the composer's bicentennial year begins well in advance of the Ring performances. The celebration kicks off on January 13, at a Seattle Youth Symphony Concert starring former Seattle Opera Young Artist Adina Aaron, who will sing the "Liebestod" from Tristan und Isolde as well as Wagner's Wesendonck Lieder. In February Sue Elliott, Seattle Opera's Education Director, presents Inside the Ring at the Frye Art Museum, a series of fascinating three-hour seminars on each opera for those wanting to explore the Ring in depth. On May 22, Wagner's 200th birthday, anyone and everyone-especially the shower-singers among us-are invited to sing along with Seattle Opera in the Armory at Seattle Center. The celebration includes a "Ho-jo-to-ho" competition, Ring costume contest, and cake! And on August 3, the day before Ring performances begin, a free, family-friendly open house at McCaw Hall, featuring performances of Seattle Opera's newly-commissioned Our Earth opera trilogy, will encourage us all to "Make Some Noise."
As performances of the Ring get underway on August 4, a wide variety of new and cherished education programs will enthrall and delight diehard Wagnerites and newcomers alike. Hosted in the Nesholm Family Lecture Hall at McCaw Hall, Seattle Opera's three signature Symposia bring together artists, scholars, and authors to explore the complexities of Wagner and the Ring. Asher Fisch, Seattle Opera's Principal Guest Conductor and conductor of the 2013 Ring, speaks at all three Symposia; other presenters include Lydia Goehr, Roger Parker, Kenneth Reinhard, Stephen Wadsworth, Michael Hackett, Mark Berry, François Rochaix, Pamela Rosenberg, Arthur Groos, and Peter Kazaras. Sue Elliott gives her Inside the Ring presentations the morning of each performance day. Immediately before each performance, patrons can attend the entertaining, hour-long Pre-Performance Talks given by Community Programs Manager Robert McClung. And all patrons are welcome to join the discussion at the free Q&A with Speight Jenkins after each performance of Die Walküre, Siegfried, and Götterdämmerung. Following performances of Das Rheingold, Speight Jenkins will host Rheingold Revelry, an exclusive champagne reception and late supper open to all Ring full-cycle buyers. Other Ring-related opportunities include investigating technical solutions to the top 10 "problems" in producing any Ring cycle at the Tech Talks with Robert Schaub, the company's Technical and Facilities Director; a night of new comedy, Wagner Sketches, at Seattle Repertory Theatre once each cycle; and a 2013 special: Speight's Retrospective, a personal exploration of life with the Ring. And BRAVO! Club's popular Laser Ring returns to the Pacific Science Center's Laser Dome for one night only on August 11!

The fabled "domino effect" rears its ugly head again. Whatever happens it is the wealthy ones who are able to transfer their money into "safe havens" who will benefit whilst the rest of us suffer the 1930's effect. Greece is one of the most independent of states so i do not think the people are too much worried about what happens elsewhere should they default or return to their previous currency. The collapse of the present system,whilst creating great hardship for most,might be necessary so a more equitable and sustainable one can be rebuilt. Bretton Woods died years ago and the present system has been bailed out by the taxpayer too many times for this to continue.

Morning Daz!
Yeah i agree with u here. Jack Straw stated only two days ago that Greece should be left to Default on their loans, I think whats happening is some countries are sick of the bailouts that are sucking billions from each country! some countries are simply much more responsible then others again you have to take into account corruption too!
I honestly think that the Euro's fatal end is "In the post" and its just a matter of time before other countries pull out of it..

its better to let greece default and leave the euro rather than prolong the agony. its is in such a mess, get the pain over and done with now. and a good lesson for the banks to tighten up on lending to chaotic nations.
i think eire & portugal can be saved as they are not so chaotic.
as for the UK the quicker we get the pain over by putting up interest rates the better, in the long run inflation will take off making the value of our savings a lot less unless the BofE get a grip.
another worry is the USA they seem ignorant of the fact they need austerity measures, if they crash that will knock on the world over.

The UK has only avoided a similar fate by the £ devaluing against the Euro; even then our strucural deficit is very worrying. Problem is that even a hint of a return to the drachma would cause a terrible rush to get euros out and the banks would be under siege.

The banks will survive come what may,as previous historical events prove.I think that that since the advent of 'credit cards', especially the Thatcherite deregulation has led to an absolute disregard for individual fiscal probity whilst "institutional" lending,without clear oversight, has become a gambling juggernaut that threatens us all. Excepting those elites in my first post. We either sit back and hope that throwing money at the problem will work or we "bite the bullet" and take the pain. No i do not think we are in it together,that obvious canard needs laid to rest. I feel that no economist really understands how the economy works,Keynesianism only really worked because of the post-war nature of restructuring and building that was necessary and neo-liberalism was nothing but a global assault,under Cold War pretexts,on working class cultures of the 'left'. That's my mini rant anyway.

the fact is the greeks where brought into the fold and their economy was not up to it, Im glad the uk stayed well out of the euro because it was a disaster waiting to happen.though were paying for the aftermath of yet another flawed euro experiment .
for a currency to succeed everything needs to be in tandem interest rates tax rates etc this is clearly not the case in europe so it was doomed to fail at the outset.
Now dont get me wrong i'm not anti europe they are valuable partners but they need to wise up and just keep it to trade and logistics a european stae just won't work

Big Horn
Gaited Horse Flex Tree Saddle / Bh 1545
Trail Saddles
For Sale on eBay
Manufacturer: Big Horn
Model: Gaited Horse Flex Tree Saddle / Bh 1545
Category: Trail Saddles
Purchase: I paid $1000 for this saddle in April of 2006 from a saddle shop in Pennsylvania. I bought it because I hauled my horse to the shop and had her fitted, and this saddle looked comfortable for both her and me.
Likes: Very comfortable seat. The trail stirrups are great.
Dislikes: Several things: first, the flex tree in this saddle is NOT made for heavy riders. It sored my horse so badly she finally laid down on the trail. She had been shying away from the saddle for weeks. I was later told this type of tree (with the rubber bars) should not be used for riders over 185#. Second, the leather used in the saddle was very stiff and even after a year did not break in. Third, the bar flare and width was extremely odd and didn't fit ANY of my gaited horses very well.
Quality: I think Big Horn could use better quality leather. The construction appeared to be ok. I would suggest they switch to a different type of flexible tree and avoid the rubber bars.
Summary: I would not recommend this saddle to any heavy riders. There is no support and the bars end up bending and creating a fulcrum effect on the horse. It may work fine with lighter riders.

Mozilla's mobile operating system, unveiled at Mobile World Congress, won't win over many iOS and Android faithful. But it's credible for low-budget feature-phone owners.

The simulator is an extension that runs in Firefox and lets users check out how the operating system will work.

As Firefox 16 enters Mozilla's pre-beta Aurora channel, selected developers have been allowed to access the Mozilla app marketplace.
Security and stability updates will finally come to an end with the release of Firefox 3.0.19, due out March 30.
Mozilla has laid plans for building online stores for Web apps, though it doesn't plan to build a store itself. Also: new Firefox features and security fixes.
After years of surging revenue, Firefox developer Mozilla saw a rise of only 1 percent in 2013. Still, it did reach $314 million, and Mozilla's leaders say they're upbeat.
Google's 10-year run as Firefox's default search engine in the US is over. Yahoo wants more search traffic, and a deal with Mozilla will bring it.
Microsoft is no longer the foe. Mozilla CTO Andreas Gal is using the Web to try to force Android and iOS to become more open. He knows Mozilla's Firefox OS is in for a long battle, though.
The newest version of the open-source browser won't arrive this year, and a major update might not arrive until 2011. But there are plenty of features coming.

Nice hotelPosted Aug 28, 2014 on Hotels.com
Nice hotel and nice staff. Room was standard size and not a problem for one night, however the beds in our room were horrible. They squeaked with every movement and didn't have any support. Made for a long, uncomfortable night on the bed.

Great place to stay!Posted Aug 28, 2014 on Hotels.com
Great location (near the airport, close to I-70), exceptionally friendly and prompt service, very clean and comfortable room, great breakfast and light fare food choices! I travel a lot but haven't stayed in a Courtyard in a while; however, I really like the new (to me) business model! I'll definitely be using Courtyard again!

Staff was very helpful.Posted Aug 11, 2014
Pros: The staff
Cons: The floors in the lobby and adjacent areas, including the elevators did not look like they had been cleaned in some time.
Location: Entry to Colorado National Park is near.
After leaving the hotel early, we discovered that my husband had left his hearing aids in the room. We called the hotel and explained our problem. After returning to the hotel, we were able to find them in the room. The young woman at the desk was very helpful and courteous. She also looked up our frequent guest number and was helpful in giving us a map.

Reliably comfortable & chic at the same timePosted Aug 4, 2014 on Hotels.com
What a relief to walk into the Courtyard Marriott GJC after staying at a competitor chain. The lobby / lounge / cafe is comfortable and chic, the front desk staff is professional, charming and extra attentive and once up into our rooms a sigh of relief - great beds, lots of space, clean/modern bath. Also appreciate the ease of printing our air boarding passes and the availability of pool, hot tub and gym. Thank you Courtyard team! We had a great stay with you. Bonus points: I learned on this trip that Marriott made all parts of their properties smoke-free (not just their guest rooms) and will now favor Marriott over Hilton every time.

I dunno about removing OneNote via script, but you should be able to remove 'Send To OneNote' or whatever the printer is called via script.
Logon Script example vbs remove printer with removeprinterconnection method
Does anyone know how to remove the Send To OneNote as this is causing problems on the network with users assuming this is the printer.
Is there a script that can be used so when the user logs on Send To OneNote is deleted?

Sorry I meant Send To OneNote, it would be best if this does not show with the printers. If this could be deleted at login via a script that would be great.
Could always use Group Policy Preferences to remove the printer.
User Configuration > Preferences > Control Panel Settings > Printers
New Task > Local Printer
Select action as [delete] and enter the name of the printer.
This will only remove the printer and not the driver(s).
zag (26th September 2013)
We're using it fine with Windows 2003 Domain and XP Pro Clients.
1) XP Clients need KB943729 installed. Follow Link
2) Create a Group Policy Central Store Link 1 or Link 2
3) A Windows 7 Pro (or Windows 2008+ Server) Client is required to create and manage the new policies on.
If you want to get rid of the Right Click, Send to, OneNote this can be done via GPP as well by using:
User Configuration > Preferences > Windows Settings > Files
Find the location of the OneNote shortcut, and set to delete.
On Windows XP it is C:\Documents and Settings\&username%\SendTo (not checked Windows 7 etc)

Last November, Kelso & Co., the holding company for PSAV, which provides AV and related services to more than 800 hotels in the U.S. and elsewhere, acquired Swank Audio Visuals, which supplied similar services to another 375 hotels in the U.S. The combined new company, known as PSAV, has revenues estimated near $1 billion and contracts in place with about 1,200 hotels…I asked Steve Dumond, who was divisional sales manager at Swank AV and retains that title for new PSAV, how the company will approach this tenuously resurgent market. He says that it will be a combination of customer service and technology. New platforms will be getting additional investment, particularly video mapping, which Dumond says is going to replace the conventional pipe-and-drape stage for events and trade shows. Using software systems like Red Hen and coolux, and applying new stage technologies like Atomic Design's modular Pillows and Wafers will achieve what he says has to be the equation for success emerging from recession. Corporate customers, he says, are asking for "something new, something cutting edge, something that they can use to differentiate themselves, but they also want cost-effectiveness. To deliver that, we need to invest in and rely on new technologies."

Hi: 7° Lo:0°

IT WAS a case of hair today gone tomorrow for one fund-raising shop worker in Marston Green.
Jon Lewis well and truly got into the spirit of Children in Need as his head was completely shaved and he helped staff at the village's One Stop store raise an impressive £650.
Another staff member at the Station Road store braved leg waxing, while others dressed as farm animals for the entire day and the store also held a raffle and cake sales to raise the cash.
A charity bucket was also passed round the village and the stores customers, local residents and businesses gave generously.
Jon, 21, said: "I am really pleased we managed to raise such a great total for Children in Need.
"When the first bit of hair was shaved off my head I was thinking 'what have I done!' but I'm used to it already now and the money goes to such a good cause it really is worth it.
"Everyone at One Stop really entered into the spirit of things and we had a great response from our customers who enjoyed all the activities and gave very generously.
"A big 'thank you' to everyone who helped us raise £650."

Michael Irvin on Saturday became the tenth member of the Dallas Cowboys organization to join the Pro Football Hall of Fame. He joins Tom Landry, Tex Schramm, Roger Staubach, Bob Lilly, Tony Dorsett, Mel Renfro, Randy White, Rayfield Wright, and Troy Aikman in Canton.
Here is his acceptance speech–
And a great highlight film:
There are all sorts of stories out there. Here is a sampling:
Irvin grew up 25 miles from Miami in Fort Lauderdale. He was an All-American receiver at St. Thomas Aquinas High School and at the University of Miami. He was the 11th overall pick by the Cowboys in the 1988 draft.
Nicknamed "The Playmaker", Irvin helped lead the Cowboys to six division titles and three Super Bowl championships before a spinal injury cut his playing career short. Irvin was the team's top receiver for eight consecutive seasons and retired as the Cowboys all-time leader in receptions (750), receiving yards (11,904), playoff receptions (87) and playoff receiving yards (1,315).
Michael Irvin was elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame despite a troubled past, though voters denied entry to retired NFL Commissioner Paul Tagliabue.
The former Dallas Cowboys receiver, who won three Super Bowls in the 1990s, got in on his third try.
Irvin pleaded no contest in 1996 to felony cocaine possession. Four years later, he was arrested on drug possession charges, but they were later dropped.
The 40 Hall voters were criticized by two of Irvin's former teammates, Emmitt Smith and Troy Aikman, for previously bypassing the wideout, who retired in 1999.
They didn't ignore him this time.
Irvin certainly had to "get up" a time or two in his life, first from his rather humble beginnings, to recovering from major knee surgery early in his second season with the Cowboys (1990), to returning from a four-game suspension due to continued off-field problems, to this stigma he developed from those problems that seemingly would deny him entry into the Hall of Fame.
But there was a real push to right what many thought was a wrong back in 2005 when Irvin advanced to the final six of a process that had to select three guys but no more than six only to fail to receive the necessary 80-percent confirmation from the 40-member selection committee.
So this time around, Dallas representative Rick Gosselin of The Dallas Morning News had some help. USA Today's Jarrett Bell, formerly a reporter in Dallas, got up to speak on Irvin's behalf. So did the Fort Worth Star-Telegram's Charean Williams, president of the Pro Football Writer's Association.
They came armed with an overwhelming presentation. Bell put together Irvin's playoff numbers. Aikman had the presenters look up Michael's stats against the best cornerbacks in the league, the Darrell Greens and Deion Sanders. They had a quote from former Cowboys offensive coordinator and current head-coach candidate Norv Turner, telling the selection committee, "Darrell Green is still trying to cover Michael Irvin one-on-one."
Irvin's candidacy was the one that had Jerry Jones concerned. Irvin has always been a Jones favorite because of his competitiveness and because of Irvin's resiliency in bouncing back from life's haymakers. "If our game is about getting knocked down and then knowing how to get back up," Jones said after the HOF announcement Saturday, "then Michael Irvin is a Hall of Famer."
You couldn't help but see the writing on the wall in the green room when Irvin's name was announced. There, next to Jerry Jones was Norv Turner, celebrating and slapping hands. As Adam Schefter so aptly put it at the time, "I don't see Wade Phillips in there." I'm with you Adam, when I saw that picture it really started to hit me that Norv Turner will almost certainly be our next head coach, and I'm dreading it. I also noticed Jason "Red" Garrett was right there with them.

Graduation Rates Troubling at HBCUs
A report from the Associated Press finds that graduation rates have declined at 57 of the 80 four-year HBCUs reporting data between 2006 and 2011, falling from 37.7 percent in 2006 to 33.7 percent in 2011. The report cited financial strain stemming from Black unemployment and tougher requirements to qualify for federal loans for the apparent downturn. (Photo: West Rock/Getty Images)

Signals from Velocity Europe 2014
CodeMontage CEO Vanessa Hurst talks about creating cultures and environments that cultivate learning — what she likens to "continuous integration for your brain." See more signals from Velocity Europe 2014...
Introducing "A Field Guide to the Distributed Development Stack"
Tools to develop massively distributed applications.
Editor's Note: At the Velocity Conference in Barcelona we launched "A Field Guide to the Distributed Development Stack." Early response has been encouraging, with reactions ranging from "If I only had this two years ago" to "I want to give a copy of this to everyone on my team." Below, Andrew Odewahn explains how the Guide came to be and where it goes from here.
As we developed Atlas, O'Reilly's next-generation publishing tool, it seemed like every day we were finding interesting new tools in the DevOps space, so I started a "Sticky" for the most interesting-looking tools to explore.
At first, this worked fine. I was content to simply keep a list, where my only ordering criteria was "Huh, that looks cool. Someday when I have time, I'll take a look at that," in the same way you might buy an exercise DVD and then only occasionally pull it out and think "Huh, someday I'll get to that." But, as anyone who has watched DevOps for any length of time can tell you, it's a space bursting with interesting and exciting new tools, so my list and guilt quickly got out of hand.
The infinite hows
An argument against the Five Whys and an alternative approach you can apply.
Before I begin this post, let me say that this is intended to be a critique of the Five Whys method, not a criticism of the people who are in favor of using it. This critique I present is hardly original; most of this post is inspired by Todd Conklin, Sidney Dekker, and Nancy Leveson.
The concept of post-hoc explanation (or "postmortems" as they're commonly known) is, at this point, taken hold in the web engineering and operations domain. I'd love to think that the concepts that we've taken from the new view on "human error" are becoming more widely known and that people are looking to explore their own narratives through those lenses.
I think that this is good, because my intent has always been (might always be) to help translate concepts from one domain to another. In order to do this effectively, we need to know also what to discard (or at least inspect critically) from those other domains.
The Five Whys is such an approach that I think we should discard.
If it weren't for the people…
A humanist approach to automation.
Editor's note: At some point, we've all read the accounts in newspapers or on blogs that "human error" was responsible for a Twitter outage, or worse, a horrible accident. Automation is often hailed as the heroic answer, poised to eliminate the specter of human error. This guest post from Steven Shorrock, who will be delivering a keynote speech at Velocity in Barcelona, exposes human error as dangerous shorthand. The more nuanced way through involves systems thinking, marrying the complex fabric of humans and the machines we work with every day.
In Kurt Vonnegut's dystopian novel 'Player Piano', automation has replaced most human labour. Anything that can be automated, is automated. Ordinary people have been robbed of their work, and with it purpose, meaning and satisfaction, leaving the managers, scientists and engineers to run the show. Dr Paul Proteus is a top manager-engineer at the head of the Ilium Works. But Proteus, aware of the unfairness of the situation for the people on the other side of the river, becomes disillusioned with society and has a moral awakening. In the penultimate chapter, Paul and his best friend Finnerty, a brilliant young engineer turned rogue-rebel, reminisce sardonically: "If only it weren't for the people, the goddamned people," said Finnerty, "always getting tangled up in the machinery. If it weren't for them, earth would be an engineer's paradise."
A foundation of empathy: The O'Reilly Radar Podcast
Putting ourselves in the shoes of the user is key to building better systems and services.
Editor's note: you can subscribe to the O'Reilly Radar Podcast through iTunes, SoundCloud, or directly through our podcast's RSS feed.
In this podcast episode, Tim O'Reilly talks about building systems and services for people, keeping a close eye on the end user's experience to build better, more efficient systems that actually work for the people using them. Highlighting a quote from Jeff Sussna, O'Reilly makes a deeper connection between development and the ultimate purpose for building systems and services — user experience:
"[Jeff Sussna says in his blog post Empathy: The Essence of DevOps]: 'It's not about making developers and sysadmins report to the same VP. It's not about automating all your configuration procedures. It's not about tipping up a Jenkins server, or running your applications in the cloud, or releasing your code on Github. It's not even about letting your developers deploy their code to a PaaS. The true essence of DevOps is empathy.'
"Understanding the other people that you work with and how you're going to work together more effectively. That word 'empathy' struck me and it made me connect the world of DevOps with the world of user experience design."
Scaling NoSQL databases: 5 tips for increasing performance
How NoSQL databases scale vertically and horizontally, and what you should consider when building a DB cluster.
Editor's note: this post is a follow-up to a recent webcast, "Getting the Most Out of Your NoSQL DB," by the post author, Alex Bordei.
As product manager for Bigstep's Full Metal Cloud, I work with a lot of amazing technologies. Most of my work actually involves pushing applications to their limits. My mission is simple: make sure we get the highest performance possible out of each setup we test, then use that knowledge to constantly improve our services.
Here are some of the things I've learned along the way about how NoSQL databases scale vertically and horizontally, and what things you should consider when building a DB cluster. Some of these findings can be applied to RDBMS as well, so read on even if you're still a devoted SQL fan. You might just get up to 60% more performance out of that database soon enough. Read more…
The promise of Promise Theory: The O'Reilly Radar Podcast
Mark Burgess chats about Promise Theory, and Geoffrey Moore discusses a modern approach to his Crossing the Chasm theory.
Editor's note: you can subscribe to the O'Reilly Radar Podcast through iTunes,SoundCloud, or directly through our podcast's RSS feed.
As systems become increasingly distributed and complex, it's more important than ever to find ways to accurately describe and analyze those systems, and to formalize intent behind processes, workflows, and collaboration.
In this podcast episode, I chat with Mark Burgess, founder and CTO of CFEngine, about the origins of Promise Theory and its connection to DevOps. Read more…

Giants add Brandon Stokley
September, 14, 2011
By Ohm Youngmisuk | ESPNNewYork.com
Andy Lyons/Getty ImagesBrandon Stokley scored the Ravens' first TD in their Super Bowl XXXV blowout of the Giants.The Giants added veteran receiver Brandon Stokley on Thursday to likely compete for the slot spot.
Stokley, 35, had 31 receptions for 354 yards in 11 games with the Seahawks last season.
His best season came with Peyton Manning in 2004, when Stokley had 68 catches for 1,077 yards and 10 touchdowns for the Colts. Giants fans might remember him from Super Bowl XXXV on Jan. 28, 2001, when he had three catches for 52 yards and one touchdown for Baltimore against the Giants.
Domenik Hixon and Victor Cruz have been auditioning for the third wide receiver spot as the team looks to fill the void left by Steve Smith's departure as a free agent. NFL Network's Jason LaCanfora reported that the Giants worked out T.J. Houshmandzadeh and former Jet David Clowney along with Stokley on Wednesday.
"I like it," Hixon said of playing the slot. "Working inside, watching Steve do it for a long time and do it well. I'm waiting for my opportunity."
"Just kind of navigate through some of the junk [on the field]," Hixon said of what playing in the slot requires. "You got a lot more junk in [there]. Linebackers trying to put their hands on you, DBs, little things like that. Just traffic."
Cruz got the first crack at the slot on Sunday but dropped a pass on a 3rd-and-8 on the team's first drive. Cruz was only targeted twice the entire game. Hixon finished with two catches for 21 yards as the team employed some four-wide sets.
With Stokley, the Giants have seven wide receivers.
To make room for Stokely, the Giants waived defensive end Justin Trattou , who was added to the roster last week to provide depth with Justin Tuck out.
Tuck could play this week against the Rams. Stay tuned.

Seems Kevin J. Delaney over at the Wall Street Journal got mixed reviews of Yahoo's new search advertising interface, Panama.
And this is news why? Virtually every product in the world has mixed reviews. Delaney gave some examples of how Panama has created problems for some of the smaller advertisers, while noting that most of the agencies realized they would need to make changes when their accounts were migrated.
The WSJ article was a good example of the depth of knowledge a non-professional in our space generally has.
Delaney summed up Panama this way. "At its core, it involves replacing a Web-based system created in the late 1990s for companies to buy search-related ads, which had developed a reputation among some advertisers for outages and other problems. As part of the upgrade, Yahoo plans to change how it selects which search ads to display for any user query, adopting a strategy already used by Google that has proven more profitable".
No brief mention of GoTo/Overture/Yahoo being the first and thus oldest PPC system created when ppc advertising was much smaller. Nor that they offered set bidding which many people will miss, to be replaced with the blind bid method of Google; that may be more profitable to the engines but thus more expensive to the advertisers.
Yes the categories were a little off and required some tweaking once Yahoo made the migration, but this was done so the ads did not have to go back through editorial.
The timing of the report, the morning of Yahoo!'s earnings report, is at best curious. The unfavorable comparison to its major rival twice in the article is hard to understand - though since it is Google one tends to understand.
The comments in our forum on this topic have been as mixed as Delaney suggests, but they generally come with more insight.
Even the "I hate the new Yahoo PPC" thread has only 4 nay sayers - and it has been up for over a month.

Ideas and Recipes for Easy Parties That Are Really Fun The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook Barefoot Contessa Back to Basics: Fabulous Flavor from Simple Ingredients Barefoot Contessa, How Easy Is That?: Fabulous Recipes & Easy Tips Editorial Reviews: SynopsisHearty boeuf Bourguignon served in deep bowls over a garlic-rubbed slice of baguette toast; decadently rich croque monsieur, eggy and oozing with cheese; gossamer crème brulee, its sweetness offset by a brittle burnt-sugar topping. Whether shared in a cozy French bistro or in your own home, the romance and enduring appeal of French country cooking is irrefutable. Here is the book that helps you bring that spirit, those evocative dishes, into your own home.What Ina Garten is known for—on her Food Network show and in her three previous bestselling books—is adding a special twist to familiar dishes, while also streamlining the recipes so you spend less time in the kitchen but still emerge with perfection. And that's exactly what she offers in Barefoot in Paris. Ina's kir royale includes the unique addition of raspberry liqueur—a refreshing alternative to the traditional crème de cassis. Her vichyssoise is brightened with the addition of zucchini, and her chocolate mousse is deeply flavored with the essence of orange. All of these dishes are true to their Parisian roots, but all offer something special—and are thoroughly delicious, completely accessible, and the perfect fare for friends and family. Barefoot in Paris is suffused with Ina's love of the city, of the bustling outdoor markets and alluring little shops, of the bakeries and fromageries and charcuteries—of the wonderful celebration of food that you find on every street corner, in every neighborhood. So take a trip to Paris with the perfect guide—the Barefoot Contessa herself—in her most personal book yet. Amazon.com ReviewIna Garten's much loved cookbooks, The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook, Barefoot Contessa Parties!, and Barefoot Contessa Family Style, offer relaxed yet stylish dishes that don't tax the cook. Her food works wonderfully for entertaining but shouldn't be limited to such times. Barefoot in Paris finds Garten (almost inevitably) in France, "translating" native dishes for the American home cook. The result is rewarding, and should get those reluctant to "cook French" to do just that. Covered are classics like Celery Root Rémoulade, Boeuf Bourguignon, and Chicken with Forty Cloves of Garlic, but also "newer" dishes like Zucchini Vichyssoise and Avocado and Grapefruit Salad. If Garten ranges wide from typical Parisian fare--in, for example, recipes like Rosemary Cashews, Tomato Rice Pilaf, and a distinctly American Brownie Tart--these nonetheless embody the French approach. Her sweets, including the likes of Peaches in Sauternes, Plum Cake "Tatin," and an exemplary Crème Brûlée, are particularly tempting. Included also are asides like "About French Table Settings," and "If You're Going," a resource guide, that, practicality apart, give readers a sense of French culinary life. With color photos, this is winning addition to the Barefoot collection. --Arthur Boehm CERTAIN CONTENT THAT APPEARS ON THIS SITE COMES FROM AMAZON SERVICES LLC.

text: 'Have No Doubt': Obama Vows Executive Action on Immigration Reform Print article Send a Tip by Charlie Spiering 28 Aug 2014 post a comment After wrapping up questions at his press conference today, President Obama returned to the podium to answer a question from a reporter about his strategy on acting on immigration. Obama explained that although "hope springs eternal" that Congress would address immigration reform, he felt that he had to act to make the system better. "We've had a lot of stakeholder discussions, that set of proposals is being worked up," he said, referring to several meetings at the White House with immigration activists and business leaders. Obama acknowledged the summer border crisis, admitting that it "changed the perception of the American people" about the immigration debate. He asserted that his administration had made progress by slowing down the number of apprehensions on the border throughout the summer. Obama also complained that Congress had not passed his additional spending request to fund additional resources to combat the crisis. "We've got to make some administrative and executive choices about -- for example -- getting more immigration judges down there," he said. Although Obama admitted that his administration was "busy" dealing with the consequences of the border crisis, he hinted that he had more to do before the election. "It has not stopped the process of looking more broadly about how do we get a smart immigration system in place while we're waiting for Congress to act," he said. "Have no doubt," he added. "In the absence of Congressional action, I'm going to do what I can to make sure the system works better."

Book Description:
By the wide sands of Normandy a cluster of young girls wheel and play, riding their bicycles along the promenade their hair flying in the Channel winds. Among them is Albertine. A sickly boy watches, longing to posses some of the girls' vitality, their verve and beauty. For her part, Albertine envies his life, the Grand Hotel, the rich leisured friends, shopping on the Grands Boulevards. She makes her play, and wins. But eventually he will make Albertine his captive, trapping her in his airless Paris apartment and his suffocating, possessive love. And as she struggles with herself and her fate, the desire she feels is not for him but for others, her free, sensual women friends. In this powerfully atmospheric novel, Jacqueline Rose re-tells the story of Albertine from Proust's A la recherche du temps perdu, from her point of view. But this remarkable retelling stands on its own. Cut free from the master's text, the woman's story carries us into a lush, dreamlike inner world, in which a drama of passion is played out on bodies and minds alike - suggestive and sexy, intriguing and provocative.

November 28, 2014
December 12, 2012
RICHMOND, Virginia (AP)— Former Bishop Walter F. Sullivan, the longest-serving head of the Richmond Roman Catholic diocese, has died. He was 84.
The Catholic Virginian assistant editor Judy Lindfors says Sullivan died in Richmond on Tuesday. He had been diagnosed with liver cancer.
Sullivan spent the majority of his life serving the church, 29 years as bishop of the sprawling Richmond diocese and 21 years before that as a priest.
The 11th bishop to head the Richmond diocese, Sullivan was best known as one of the more progressive leaders in the Catholic church. He sparked controversy by opening his churches to gays and lesbians, condemning wars in Vietnam and the Middle East and speaking out against the death penalty.
Sullivan took mandatory retirement at 75 in 2003.

Lil Wayne's ex-wife, Antonia "Toya" Carter, has shared her family's reaction to the rapper's one-year jail sentence.
Toya expressed the emotional toll that constant delays took on Reginae, her daughter with Wayne.
"It was up and down, you know," she revealed in an interview. "One minute we thought he was going and she'd be sad and then he don't go. We [were] in New York like two times and we ended up turning right back around because he didn't go…The last day he finally went in, we didn't go, so my daughter was like, 'I wish I would've went.' It was just too much. I just didn't want to let her see that again 'cause both times she took it real hard. So I was like, I'm not gon' let her go this last time. I'm just gon' make sure he talk to her 'cause I didn't know if he was really gonna go. They kept pushing back…He just told me to be strong and don't really trip. Don't let her see me down. At first my daughter would see me a little sad and you know kids they react off of your feelings sometimes, so he was just like, 'Be strong, make sure you take care of her. Make sure she straight and keep her phone on all the times so I can call her. The time is gonna fly by.'" (VIBE)
Last October, Toya discussed the relationship she has with Wayne.
"We talk," she said in an interview. "We have a great relationship. He's a great father. He tells [our daughter] about [his other kids], so I just go along with the flow. I'm good with all of [his children's mothers]. I try to keep the kids cool because they're all in the same situation, so we don't have time for any drama." (E! Online)
Reginae joined her father and Drake onstage last summer's BET Awards 2009.
According to my source, what happened was Wayne's daughter Reginae, 9, was upset that she didn't get the chance to accompany her father, Lil Wayne, to the stage to accept his award because she was sitting too far back in the audience. Once backstage, the youngster began to cry. And Wayne, who they say is a great dad, hated to see his little girl cry. So he told Reginae she could come out onstage during his performance with Drake. Reginae, being the team player that she is, asked the other members of her group to go out on stage with her. (Sandra Rose)
Wayne began serving his time after being sentenced last Monday.
Lil Wayne has been sentenced to a year in jail after pleading guilty in a New York City gun case. The Grammy Award-winning rapper was taken away in handcuffs to start serving his term immediately after his sentencing. He'll serve his sentence in city jails, not a state prison. He could be released in about eight months with good behavior. (CBS News)

"None are so old as those who have outlived enthusiasm."
Henry David Thoreau
It has been great to explore more of the trails in BC and beyond. I am still hoping for maybe another overnight trip! With lightweight backpacking gear and more experience packing (and reducing weight!) it has been wonderful to explore remote places.
Unfortunately my plans for 2 weeks on the PCT had to be changed due to large wildfires in Washington in July. But the three days in Manning Park with Keyla were strenuous and rewarding. There's something refreshing about being out in the wilderness by yourself! A bucket list item was crossed off the list when I summited Mount Fosthall in the Monashees in a solo, 3-day trip. What a scramble to the top but so worth it! Pictures can be enjoyed here …
Other explorations took us up Spion Kop (Lake Country), Browne Lake (near Nordic ski area) and to Buchan Bay (Okanagan Mountain Park) overnight. Now I'm ready for snow!!
I found a few more video gems from our Norway trip. Despite being used to European-style driving, the narrow roads and especially tunnels in Norway did take a lot of concentration! Check out this video of a typical tunnel on a secondary road (some bigger ones do have lights and actually space for two cars!) – yep you just have to pray nobody is coming around the corner fast
This second video shows the descent on the famous Trollstigen. Not a lot of room but surprisingly, no accidents or even scrapes. We even saw road bikers and a tour bus navigating this!
Apologies it has taken a while to get all the Norway photos online. It was a big trip, created many memories and many many photos. A selection of the best is now online in the Gallery!
We had an amazing time! Our first week in Tromso – where the sun never sets – was amazing (check out this video from the Midnight Sun Marathon there, taken approximately 11:30pm on June 21). Stine and Otto, our new friends, were wonderful hosts who shared their cooking skills and cabin on an outer island with us. I just wish I could have spent the whole summer at this "cabin" (I am using this word loosely as it is more of a supernice home than a cabin in the Canadian sense!).
After short stopovers in Copenhagen, Stockholm and Oslo, we started exploring the fjords and mountains of Norway. It was wonderful to have my parents join us for a week, first in a royal vacation rental in Beitostolen (I think we counted 20 beds in 5 bedrooms and with 3 big bathrooms) and then in Bergen for two days. When they left for home, we continued with hikes and exploration all over central Norway. We learned that Norwegians don't think much of actual hiking trails … they just paint red "T's" on rocks and scramble straight up any mountain. Hiking highlights were the popular Besseggen Ridge Trail, the hike up Saksaklepp with nobody else around, and our hike with Stine and Otto near Tromso. We also took the Flamsbana from Flåm to Myrdal and back.
While some fjords get a lot of cruise ship traffic, we enjoyed the smaller and lonelier experiences. For example, relaxation comes easy in Bjørke, a small village at the end of the road. The scenery was gorgeous everywhere but the Sognefjellet, Norangsdal valley and Hardangervidda stand out (check out the pictures). We also had a great time catching up with Sissel and Scott in Oslo. What a perfect city for xc ski enthusiasts! Everywhere we went, the far advanced bike culture in Europe was evident (maybe most of all in Malmø on our last day, on a city tour with Steve).
If you get a chance, go to Norway.

Elefanta reviews from OpenTable diners
- A real find and quite unexpectedlySkaaVIPDined on 2/4/2012A real find and quite unexpectedly so. My wife resisted going to this restaurant thinking that it would be a third rate rip-off. It wasn't. Just the opposite. The food is quite genuinely Indian food and quite good actually. The dining experience - just literally a few feet from the water - is singular. When my wife and I travel back to Cancun, we will definitely return.Special Features:
- Butter chicken in the land of tacosOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 1/1/2012Very well done Indian food in the heart of Cancun's tourist mecca. My partner is Indian and thought the food lacked very little in way of possible improvement. The setting is appropriately dark and romantic, especially if you ask for a table on the dock overlooking the lagoon.Special Features:
