Colo. governor asked to explain secession policies
Updated On: Sep 11 2013 12:38:14 PM CDT
Moffat County residents want Gov. John Hickenlooper to address concerns that constituents in rural Colorado have about the state's political climate leading up to the November election, when Moffat County residents will vote on potentially seceding from Colorado.
A spokesman for the governor tells Steamboat Today the governor is considering the request.
Moffat County residents have mixed feelings about the issue. Some think it's an essential move toward starting a conversation with densely populated portions of Colorado about favoritism, while others think it will cause more discord.
The issue has embroiled leaders from a number of counties in northern Colorado, who say concerns over gun rights, oil and gas drilling, and water rights are not being addressed

Fewer problems, plenty of drug arrests, medical emergencies at Seattle FreakNighton October 28, 2013 @ 4:37 pm (Updated: 7:30 am - 10/29/13 )
Detectives arrested more than a dozen people for drug sales during the two-day event, including a 17-year-old girl carrying 225 crystal meth capsules and 36 MDMA (or "Molly") pills, the Seattle Police Department reported.
The increased security actually kept detectives from making even more arrests, says SPD Sgt. Sean Whitcomb.
"The staff security was fairly vigilant and interrupted some of our transactions," he says.
Detectives continue to investigate a number of cases, including one possibly related to FreakNight when officers also responded to a hotel at 5th and Union at about 4 a.m. Saturday morning for reports of a man clad only in his underwear running up and down the hallways on the 20th floor of the hotel.
"We checked on the man, he couldn't remember his own last name, but he did admit he had taken some ecstasy and other stuff," Whitcomb says. "We're not sure it's 100 percent related to FreakNight, but it probably was."
The Seattle Fire Department reports medics or private ambulances transported thirteen people to area hospitals Friday night, and 20 more Saturday night, according to SFD spokesman Kyle Moore.
Virtually all were related to dehydration, alcohol or drugs, he says.

Washed out road in Kane County triggers car wreck; teen suffers broken back
By Dave Gathman Sun-Times Media July 3, 2014 9:36PM
After dawn on the day of the crash, a towtruck crewman works to pull out the Ford Taurus that plunged into a 10-foot-deep hole in the middle of a road in Burlington Township. A 15-year-old Elgin youth riding in the back seat remains hospitalized with several broken bones. | COURTESY DAVID GUSTAFSON

Updated: July 3, 2014 10:38PM
The rural Kane County road that gobbled up a whole Ford Taurus in a culvert washout was fixed by Thursday morning. Two girls enjoyed the sunny 70-degree weather as they rode horses across the filled-in gap.
But it will take longer for 15-year-old Larkin High School student Benjamin Hernandez to recover from a collection of broken bones, including one in his spine, that he sustained in the crash.
The Elgin teen was siting in the back seat of the Taurus, slipping newspapers into waterproof sleeves, as his mother, Juanita Pineda, drove through the night on their newspaper-delivery route in Burlington Township, Northwest of Elgin. It was pitch black, 3:50 a.m., and there was a fierce cloudburst of a thunderstorm falling on them.
Suddenly the car plunged into a 10-foot hole that had opened in the pavement, trapping both and squeezing Benjamin inside. Then, as Juanita talked on her cellphone to a 911 operator and waited for help to arrive, a pickup truck came along the same road about seven minutes later and drove right over the top of their car. The pickup went into a ditch, but the driver escaped serious injury.
In a 911 recording obtained by NBC5 Chicago News, Juanita can be heard telling her injured son, "Don't move. Don't move. They're coming, Papi. Hold on."
She tells the Kane County 911 operator that he has trouble breathing and can't move his neck.
About 10 minutes later, emergency crews arrive on the scene.
Juanita suffered some bruises, but son Benjamin was taken to Delnor Hospital in Geneva, where he reportedly was found to have a fractured spinal vertebra, a broken rib, a broken nose and a broken jaw. He was transferred to Loyola Medical Center in Maywood, where a spokeswoman said he was in fair condition Thursday.
The Kane County Sheriff's Office described the chasm that ensnared the Elginites' car as a "sinkhole," but that is not quite accurate. A sinkhole is a hole that suddenly appears in the ground because of unnoticed erosion going on deep below. But Carl Schoedel, director of the Kane County Division of Transportation, said the thing that struck Thomas Road probably should be defined as a "culvert washout."
The crash happened right where a creek called the Virgil Ditch passes under Thomas Road through a 5-foot-diameter steel culvert. When Monday night's intense storms increased the water depth and speed in Virgil Ditch, it apparently washed away all the soil between the road pavement and the culvert.
Schoedel said the Burlington Township Highway Department is responsible for maintaining Thomas Road and the culvert. But he said that based on what county crews described seeing there, a flared metal shield around the ends of the culvert, which are supposed to focus the water's force into the pipe, had broken loose. That allowed the rushing water to push hard against the soil on the upstream side and pull away the soil on the downstream side until the pavement had nothing to hold it up anymore.
That opened a hole about 10 feet deep and 8 to 10 feet wide — a hole big enough to swallow a Ford Taurus.
By Thursday morning, township workers had almost completely repaired the chasm. What looks like a brand new corrugated steel culvert has replaced the old, rusty one. The space around and above the culvert has been filled in with soil and gravel, and the exposed surfaces that face the creek have been weighed down with layer of heavy 6-inch-diameter stones.
The only signs that a near-tragedy had happened here were that the asphalt pavement now is replaced by dirt and gravel for 8 or 10 feet. New orange signs warned of "Loose Gravel" and the muddy ground alongside the road was beaten down with tracks from heavy equipment that had been used to do the repairs.
Township Highway Commissioner Jack Krueger did not return calls Thursday.

This kind-hearted ferry crew member puts on a dry suit, enters freezing waters and back strokes over to a distressed cat that got itself trapped under a ferry boat. What a wonderful act of compassion for this frightened little kitty!
The unidentified woman, who has owned the cat, named Bull, for seven years, said he was exhibiting "unnatural sexual behavior" by making passes at other male cats and noted that there were female cats in the home he could have pursued.
"By this, the cat has made a record as the first cat to be so publicly declared gay and disowned by its owner," writer Donatus Nadi notes in the article. As for the cat's disgruntled owner, she would only add, "Anybody interested in this gay cat can have it because I have no further use of it."

This invention relates to a method and apparatus for recovery from faults in a loop network. In particular, the invention relates to recovery from faults in Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loops. The invention could equally apply to recovery from faults in other unidirectional loops, for example, Token Ring networks, FDDI (Fibre Data Distributed Interfaces), etc.
Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL) architecture is a member of the Fibre Channel family of ANSI standard protocols. FC-AL is typically used for connecting together computer peripherals, in particular disk drives. The FC-AL architecture is described in NCITS working draft proposals, American National Standard for Information Technology �Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL-2) Revision 7.0�, Apr. 1, 1999 and �Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL-3) Version 1.0�, Sep. 20, 1999.
Electronic data systems can be interconnected using network communication systems. Area-wide networks and channels are two technologies that have been developed for computer network architectures. Area-wide networks (e.g. LANs and WANs) offer flexibility and relatively large distance capabilities. Channels, such as the Small Computer System Interface (SCSI), have been developed for high performance and reliability. Channels typically use dedicated short-distance connections between computers or between computers and peripherals.
Fibre Channel technology has been developed from optical point-to-point communication of two systems or a system and a subsystem. It has evolved to include electronic (non-optical) implementations and has the ability to connect many devices, including disk drives, in a relatively low-cost manner. This addition to the Fibre Channel specifications is called Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL).
Fibre Channel technology consists of an integrated set of standards that defines new protocols for flexible information transfer using several interconnection topologies. Fibre Channel technology can be used to connect large amounts of disk storage to a server or cluster of servers. Compared to Small Computer Systems Interface (SCSI), Fibre Channel technology supports greater performance, scalability, availability, and distance for attaching storage systems to network servers.
Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL) is a loop architecture as opposed to a bus architecture like SCSI. FC-AL is a serial interface, where data and control signals pass along a single path rather than moving in parallel across multiple conductors as is the case with SCSI. Serial interfaces have many advantages including: increased reliability due to point-to-point use in communications; dual-porting capability, so data can be transferred over two independent data paths, enhancing speed and reliability; and simplified cabling and increased connectivity which are important in multi-drive environments. As a direct disk attachment interface, FC-AL has greatly enhanced I/O performance.
The operation of FC-AL involves a number of ports connected such that each port's transmitter is connected to the next port's receiver, and so on, forming a loop. Each port's receiver has an elasticity buffer that captures the incoming FC-AL frame or words and is then used to regenerate the FC-AL word as it is re-transmitted. This buffer exists to deal with slight clocking errors that occur. Each port receives a word, and then transmits that word to the next port, unless the port itself is the destination of that word, in which case it is consumed. The nature of FC-AL is therefore such that each intermediate port between the originating port and the destination port gets to �see� each word as it passes around the FC-AL loop.
FC-AL architecture may be in the form of a single loop. Often two independent loops are used to connect the same components in the form of dual loops. The aim of these loops is that a single fault should not cause both loops to fail simultaneously. However, some faults, for example in a protocol chip or microprocessor in a disk drive which is common to both loops, can cause both loops to fail. More than two loops can also be used.
A FC-AL can incorporated bypass circuits with the aim of making the FC-AL interface sufficiently robust to permit devices to be removed from the loop without interrupting throughput and sacrificing data integrity. If a disk drive fails, port bypass circuits attempt to route around the problem so all disk drives on the loop remain accessible. Without port bypass circuits a fault in any device will break the loop.
In dual loops, port bypass circuits are provided for each loop and these provide additional protection against faults. Most disk drive failures would cause the disk drive to request bypass; however, faults can occur in disk drives that do not request bypass and therefore do not prevent both loops from failing.
A typical FC-AL may have one or two host bus adapters (HBA) and a set of six or so disk drive enclosures or drawers, each of which may contain a set of ten to sixteen disk drives. There is a physical cable connection between each enclosure and the HBA in the FC-AL. Also, there is a connection internal to the enclosure or drawer, between the cable connector and each disk drive in the enclosure or drawer, as well as other components within the enclosure or drawer, e.g. SES device (SCSI Enclosure Services node) or other enclosure services devices.
A SES device is an example of an enclosure service device which manages a disk enclosure and allows the monitoring of power and cooling in an enclosure. The SES device also obtains information as to which slots in an enclosure are occupied. The SES device accepts a limited set of SCSI commands. SCSI Enclosure Services are described in the working draft proposed by the American National Standards for Information Systems �SCSI-3 Enclosure Services Command Set (SES), Revision 8a�, 16 Jan. 1997.
It is an aim of the present invention to provide increased reliability, availability and serviceability in a loop network.
According to a first aspect of the present invention there is provided a method for recovery from faults in a loop network, the loop network having a plurality of ports and a control device with bypass control over at least one of the ports, the method including: sending commands at regular intervals to the control device; restarting a time period in the control device at the receipt of a command; and if the time period expires in the control device, instructing the bypass of all ports under control of the control device.
Preferably, there are two loops in the loop network with at least some of the ports common to both loops and one control device on or connected to each loop.
The time period may be at least two times the interval between the commands.
The step of bypassing of all the ports under the control of the control device reactivates the loop or loops with the control device in or connected to the loop or loops. The loop network does not know which device has failed; therefore, bypassing all the ports means there is a high probability that the failed port will be among those bypassed and thus the loop becomes connected again.
The method may include subsequently selectively un-bypassing ports to ascertain the location of the faulty port.
According to a second aspect of the present invention there is provided an apparatus for recovery from faults in a loop network comprising: a plurality of ports serially connected in the loop network; means for bypassing the ports from the loop network; a control device with bypass control over at least one of the ports; and a host means for contacting the loop network; wherein the host means sends a command to the control device at regular intervals and the control device has a counter which restarts a time period at the receipt of each command, wherein, if the predetermined time period expires, the control device activates the means for bypassing all the ports under its control.
Preferably, the loop network has two loops and at least some of the ports are connected to both loops and wherein the control device bypasses the ports on both loops simultaneously. Preferably, there is one control device on or connected to each loop.
The time period may be at least two times the interval between commands.
The control device may also have a bypass means, but this is not activated by the timeout of the predetermined time period. If the control device is bypassed, the loop cannot be controlled and it will then be permanently bypassed.
The host means may instruct the un-bypassing of the means for bypassing selected ports to ascertain the location of the faulty port.
The loop network may be a Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop pair with at least one enclosure, the control device being an enclosure services device in an enclosure. The control device may be a SCSI Enclosure Services device and may receive commands from the host means in the form of a host bus adapter. The ports may be disk drives.
The SCSI Enclosure Services device may be connected in the loop network. Alternatively, the SCSI Enclosure Services device may be connected via an Enclosure Services Interface capable port in the loop network.
According to a third aspect of the present invention there is provided a computer program product stored on a computer readable storage medium, comprising computer readable program code means for recovery from faults in a loop network, the loop network having a plurality of ports and a control device with bypass control over at least one of the ports, the program code means performing the steps of: sending commands at regular intervals to the control device; restarting a time period in the control device at the receipt of a command; and if the time period expires in the control device, instructing the bypass of all ports under control of the control device. The control device itself is not bypassed by the expiry of the time period.
This invention particularly, but not exclusively, addresses the case when both loops in a Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL) pair have stopped functioning possibly due to a defective dual port device (e.g. a disk drive). Disk drives tend to be designed with both ports implemented in a single interface chip, thus failure of this chip can affect both loops. There is normally an automatic bypass facility implemented to enable the device (the disk drive) to bypass itself out of the loops if it detects that there is a problem with its interface to the loops, but this is not effective for all failure modes so the device can cause the failure of both loops.
This invention also proposes a method and apparatus by which the SCSI Enclosure Services (SES) controllers, or any enclosure services controller, in an enclosure could provide assistance in an automatic recovery procedure, rather than rely on manual intervention.
Embodiments of the invention are now described, by means of example only, with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
A loop network system with a plurality of serially connected ports in the form of a Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL) is described for connecting together computer peripherals, in particular disk drives. This described embodiment is given in the context of FC-AL architecture although the described method and apparatus could be applied to any unidirectional loop network.

The adapters 102, 104 have external connectors 110 for cables 114 connecting each loop 114, 116 from the adapters 102, 104 to external connectors 112 of the enclosures 106, 108. Cables 114 also connect the two enclosures 106, 108 such that each loop 116, 118 passes from one enclosure 106 to the next enclosure 108.
Each loop 116, 118 passes from the first adapter 102 via an adapter external connector 110, a cable 114 and an enclosure external connector 112 to the first enclosure 106. In the first enclosure 106 each loop 116, 118 passes through its own SES (SCSI Enclosure Services) device or controller 122, 124 and then through each of the disk drives 120 in turn. The two loops 116, 118 both pass through the same shared disk drives 120. Each loop 116, 118 then leaves the first enclosure via an enclosure external connector 112 and passes through a cable 114 to a second enclosure 108 which it enters via an enclosure external connector 112. The second enclosure 108 has the same set of components as the first enclosure 106. Each loop 116, 118, after passing through the second enclosure 108 is connected to the second adapter 104 via enclosure external connectors 112, cables 114 and adapter external connectors 110.
In each enclosure 106, 108, a loop 116 enters from an external connector 112 and is routed through each of the disk drives 120 and an SES device 122, 124. Each disk drive 120 or SES device 122, 124 has a bypass circuit to enable it to be bypassed by the loop, if required. The disk drives 120 are examples of dual port devices in that they are common to both the loops 116, 118 of the loop network 100.
An SES device 122, 124 is provided on each loop 116, 118 in each enclosure and the two SES devices 122, 124 are connected together through the enclosure's backplane. One SES device can be used to control the other SES device. An SES device manages an enclosure and provides a point of control for each enclosure. It can monitor parameters such as power and cooling and obtain information as to which slots for disk drives are occupied. It accepts a limited set of SCSI commands. SES devices can be used to instruct a bypass of a disk drive and to check which disk drives are bypassed.
The SES devices 122, 124 shown in
SES devices can also be provided by means of an Enclosure Services Interface (ESI) in which case the SES devices are not in the loop but are interfaced from one or more disk drives. SES devices of this nature are usually provided on a few disk drives in each enclosure. Commands can be sent to the SES device in an enclosure via the disk drive with the ESI.
In the embodiment shown in

The selection of the input signals 402, 406 is controlled by a port bypass control signal 412. The disk drive 408 is bypassed by the incoming fibre channel signal 402 being routed to the outgoing signal 410 if the port bypass control signal is �0�.
The port bypass control signal 412 will send a signal to bypass the disk drive 408 in the following situations:
The port bypass control signal 412 will not bypass the disk drive 408 and will route the incoming drive out signal 406 to the outgoing signal 410 if the port bypass control signal is �1�.
The port bypass control signal 412 will send a signal not to bypass the disk drive 408 in the following situations:
A logical AND is taken of the three inputs to form the port bypass signal 412 which means that if anything wants the disk drive 408 to by bypassed, it will be bypassed.
The incoming fibre channel signal 402 will always be transmitted 414 to the disk drive 408 but the disk drive output signal 406 is only selectively transmitted onwards along the loop. When a disk drive is bypassed it continues to receive the inbound signal but the outbound signal is disconnected. When the disk drive is bypassed by SES control, the disk drive does not know that it is bypassed and behaves as normal.
When a disk drive is un-bypassed, it rejoins the loop. The behaviour of the disk drive will depend on whether the disk drive has an address in the loop, if it does it will rejoin the look without disturbance. If the disk drive does not have an address, it will appear that the disk drive has logged out and the loop will not recognise the disk drive until the next network reconfiguration.
The enclosures in the loop networks described support a �set timeout� command. A command is sent by an adapter at regular intervals to a processor in an enclosure, for example to an SES device. If another set timeout command is not received on either loop in the enclosure before the time expires then the enclosure will bypass all disk drives on both loops. Only the SES devices will remain in the loops. The adapter can then use the SES device in one of the loops to diagnose which disk drive is causing the problem. This disk drive can then be permanently bypassed and the error logged. The other devices can all be reattached to the loop.
In the situation in which the SES device is not in loop but is enabled via an ESI disk drive, the enclosure processor should bypass all the disk drives on both loops except for one ESI-capable disk drive on each loop, but not the same disk drive on the two loops. If there is only one disk drive with ESI capability, it should be connected to one loop only. If there are no disk drives with ESI capability, the enclosure processor should take no action.
The set timeout signal is of the order of seconds with a granularity of 50 ms. An interval of zero means no timeout.
A problem addressed by the described method and apparatus is when disk drives fail and cause both loops to break at once. A disk drive can bypass itself when it believes that it is failing. However, it may fail in such a way that it fails to bypass itself and breaks both loops to which it is attached. If this happens then access to all devices (disk drives and SES devices) in both loops will be lost. If this problem is not quickly rectified then I/Os will be failed to a host. Also, if both loops are broken, there is no way to control the enclosures and the bypass circuits, and thus no way to repair the loop.
Referring to
Due to the fact that the SES devices 522, 524 are inaccessible the timeout commands from the adapter cannot be received and the SES devices 522, 524 will bypass all the disk drives 530, 532, 534 in the first enclosure 506 thereby creating complete loops bypassing all the disk drives. This is shown in
Once the disk drives 530, 532, 534 are bypassed, both loops 516, 518 will come back up into operation; however, all the disk drives 530, 532, 534 will be inaccessible. One of the adapters 502, 504 can then find out which disk drive 530, 532, 534 is at fault. A configuration manager can inform the adapter if an SES device 522, 524 is accessible via a certain loop and the adapter can instruct the SES device 522, 524 to un-bypass disk drives from the other loop to see which disk drive causes the loop to break. Once the faulty disk drive 530 has been found, it can be bypassed from the loops 516, 518 permanently, an error is logged and the other disk drives 532, 534 un-bypassed.
To find the faulty disk drive 530 as quickly as possible, a binary search can be performed. Half the disk drives in the enclosure 506 will be un-bypassed. If the loops go down then it one of these disk drives that is at fault. If the loops stay up then it is one of the other set of disk drives, and so on until the disk drive is identified.
The set timeout signal is now described in detail. The described method implements two counters each controlled by one of the SES devices. Timers could equally be used in place of counters.
The counters work in the following manner. At regular intervals a SES command (the set timeout command) is sent from an adapter or host system to each of the SES devices in the loops. This command, when received by a SES device, is used to set its counter. Which starts to count down over a predetermined timeout period to zero. The predetermined timeout period is determined by the value in the command.
The commands are sent at regular intervals. The intervals are less than the predetermined timeout period. When the next command is received, the counter is set back to the beginning of the timeout period and again starts counting down to zero. The commands should arrive at the regular intervals such that the counter does not reach zero. If, however, the commands do not reach the counters due to a break in the loop, the counter does not reset to the beginning of the predetermined timeout period, but continues counting down to zero.
The timeout period must be longer than one of the intervals, but can also be longer than two of the intervals at which the commands are sent. Depending on the relationship of the timeout period with the intervals, two or more commands can be missed in the time taken for the counter to count down to zero. Therefore, when one command is missed the counter continues to count down, but if the next command is then received, the counter is set back to the beginning of the timeout period without reaching zero. This allows for the invalid transmission of a command which is not due to an ongoing fault.
In the event of both loops being broken by a failing device, the commands are not able to be transmitted. As a result, both the counters in an enclosure, one on each loop, will fail to be set before they count down to zero. The result is that the SES devices enable the bypass functions on all the dual port devices on both loops. This then means that the only FC-AL devices in the enclosure that are still connected to the loop, one to each, are the SES devices themselves.
The following rules apply:
If the loops are populated with enclosures that support this function and the failed device is in such an enclosure, the result of the above is that the loops should reinitialise and the adapters will only be able to �see� SES devices.
The adapter needs to recognise that both loops in a pair have been broken and have then been restored. A procedure is detailed below to recover access to all the bypassed devices except the failing one. If there are multiple adapters on the loops then only one of them (the master) should be designated to perform this procedure
The master adapter performs the following recovery:
An automatic bypassing function can be controlled (enabled, disabled), via an SES command. When a �set� counter command is received the automatic bypass function can be �enabled� and there will be a separate SES command to �disable� the function. The disable function can simply set the timeout to �0�.
The SES devices also monitor the external connectors of the enclosure. When they detect that all the external connections are in bypass mode and there are no active cables connected, then the automatic bypass function should be disabled.
This approach to the problem, although having the disadvantage of an adapter having to issue commands at regular intervals to maintain the counters, does have the very real advantage of not requiring complex detection techniques within the enclosure to detect when both loops have failed.
The invention is described in term of using an SES device with the SES protocol. Any enclosure services controller device could be used in a similar manner. Similarly, reference is made to disk drives as examples of dual port devices. Any peripheral device, for example, an alternative form of storage device, could be substituted for a disk drive.
The method described herein is typically implemented as a computer program product, comprising a set of program instructions for controlling a computer or similar device. These instructions can be supplied preloaded into a system or recorded on a storage medium such as a CD-ROM, or made available for downloading over a network such as the Internet or a mobile telephone network.
Improvements and modifications can be made to the foregoing without departing from the scope of the present invention.

Louisiana St. Patricks Day Parade 2015
St Patrick's Day is celebrated with prosperity on 17th March in all the major foreign countries of the modernized world but with different traditions and religious performances. But the common activity that is observed in every St Patrick's Day celebration is 'St Patrick's Day parade.' In Louisiana too, the parade on the occasion of St Patrick's Day is celebrated with some special religious rituals and performance.
Louisiana St Patrick Parade
This year, Baton Rouge St Patrick's parade on March 16th will prove to be a great event and the organizer believe that this year parade will get massive response from the public which were not analyzed in any of the Mardi Gras of Louisiana earlier. This year grand parade will be funnier, crazier, more entertaining and safer for the entire family. Many people have staked out their places in order to keep them secure in attending the parade but still there are many people who're waiting for the final time to participate in the parade.
Check route map for parade spot
Before your arrival for the upcoming Louisiana grand parade, you must check out the route map because there will be a heavy rush on the parade and you may face some difficulty in finding out your reserved spot on the parade. Route map can help you to pick the perfect spot with ease and comfort. Many people love to reserve the sea wall spot because such opposite offers a great view for the viewer of the parade. St Patrick party is the biggest party of the year and these parties are open to public but it requires spot entries earlier for a successful celebration.

I don't think ISP admins will be shaking their heads and laughing. They'll be very worried that they're going to be the fall guys in this fiascoette. As soon as one of these filters (inevitably) fails, it'll be the ISP on the end of the Mail's outrage and the threatening letters from lawyers.

Police probe IDIOTIC Twitter bomb threats slung at journalists
One thing Twitter really needs to fix
Is their spokeswoman who popped up on Channel 4 News and Newsnight. I'm sure she's lovely and is great at talking to people one-to-one; but, after several days of Twitter stonewalling, and when they've had plenty of time to come up with a meaningful response, she dropped the ball. Rather than saying it was unacceptable behaviour and that the company was doing everything it could to find these (ab)users and work with the police, she just kept dropping into West Coast management speak. For a media company they really aren't very good with - well - the media.
Re: I wonder what these people get from threatening people

I see some of the people who have been trolling Caroline Criado-Perez; and Oliver Rawlings, who attacked Mary Beard; have used 'freedom of speech' as a defence for their appalling actions. Thanks to them for undermining that principle so thoroughly.

Highway from HELL: Volcano tears through 35km of crust in WEEKS
Re: Grímsvötn volcano
I think this is the paper you want:
Mafic intrusions triggering eruptions in Iceland by O. Sigmarsson
Similar triggers have been proposed for the Soufriere Hills eruption on Montserrat which seems to have had a relatively cool, mostly crystalline magma chamber that then received an injection of very hot mafic material. That created local melting, parts of the crystal slush in the chamber largely melted, became mobile and began to move up towards the surface.
Injections of magma are well-known to trigger eruptions - new material can simply overpressurise the magma chamber, the heat can cause a greater degree of melting and more mobile magma, it can cause gases to exsolve from the magma, or it can introduce new gases into the chamber.
Slight correction
The paper says it takes months to years for the magma to reach the magma chamber with some indication that faster ascent occurred later in the eruption. Still fast, but not quite as dramatic.
The geochemistry is quite unusual. Had the magma hung around in the crust it should have relatively low olivine (it fractionates out very early) and any residual olivine would have been iron-rich (low forsterite) since magnesium olivine crystallises at a higher temperature. Low olivine usually means low nickel (Ni is incorporated into olivine crystals), but this eruption had very high concentrations magnesium-rich olivine and lots and lots of nickel. So it must have come straight up from the Mantle.
Fast-moving, deep-seated magma is found in places like the African rift where you get weird eruptions of low-silica, nickel-rich magmas such as sodic carbonatites (practically molten washing soda) and nephelinites; but in many cases the very hot magma rising from the Mantle begins to digest the crust around the fissure or vent and you end up with highly contaminated magmas that are chemically quite different from their original primitive magmas.
Good paper all round!
Ministry of Fun launches news quiz - and the BBC is in its sights
Probably nothing more than politics
The Ministry of Culture is still smarting from not being able to implement the media barons' agenda - first the BSkyB deal fell through and now it looks like the Levenson recommendations are going to be enforced by a statutory body rather than the newspapers. So what better than to start a 'consultation' (everyone do the air quotes) to see if the BBC is too dominant. Next stage, unattributable briefings about changing the BBC's charter, directing the licence fee elsewhere...

Village-swallowing MUDCANO was no accident, say boffins
Re: Only a liar would say fracking is totally safe.
Mud volcanoes can, and do, happen in these sorts of regions - in fact they are the one of the pieces of evidence petroleum geologists use when looking for hydrocarbons. But one on this scale is pretty much unprecedented - I can only think of the smaller Piparo mud volcano in Trinidad that wrecked a town.
But here, the drilling company seem to have some serious questions to answer.
They're drilling into an accretionary prism which is a poorly consolidated heap of junk eroded from an overriding plate and stuff scraped of a subducting plate. They're absolutely full of water and gas under high pressure trying to get to the surface. The well hit one of these pressurised regions and couldn't cope; the well blew because of external pressure not through fracking.
You can see similar, but smaller mud volcanoes in other prisms such as Trinidad and Tobago and the Makran region of Pakistan.
Mud volcanoes are also found in regions where natural gas is forcing its way up through unconsolidated sediments; if you want to see some corkers, including ones which occasionally catch fire, the region around Baku in the Caspian is a must-see.

Re: Which is all OK until you consider
Good point - and will the names and addresses of people who choose to switch off the filter be stored centrally, or will the record of them doing so be accessible to the police? Because I can see problems with that - perhaps schools will start asking prospective teachers if they use a filtered internet connection, and we can imagine the media feeding frenzy if the suspect in a murder or abuse case is found to have turned off the filters - because - you know - internet is bad...

I go past pretty much every Tuesday lunchtime and have never seen it open. So if it _is_ still open, evenings are a better bet than lunchtimes.
Oct 24, 2014Kake in U.K./Ireland
Thanks! I'm finding myself in that area more often than usual, so I'll give it a go.

There seem to be two Levante restaurants in Lewisham — did you go to Levante Pide on Lewisham High Street or Levante on Lewis Grove?

Sunday Dinner rec., near Canary Wharf
Boisdale is also closed on Sunday evenings, unfortunately.
How about Byblos Harbour? Lebanese restaurant with a charcoal grill, open until 10:30pm on Sundays. http://www.byblos-harbour.com/
Or Turkish food at Hazev, also open until 10:30pm on Sundays: http://hazev.com/
Or Cantonese food on a boat! at Lotus (open until 10:30pm on Sundays): http://lotusfloating.co.uk/
(Guess who recently did a survey of Canary Wharf for the Worldcon restaurant guide...)

Budget Recs for Lewisham, South East London
Do you know roughly when Le Taliet tends to be open? Every time I've been past, it's had the shutter down, but that's usually around lunchtime or in the afternoon on a weekday.
(I can't make phone calls, so giving me the phone number won't help.)

London - Fakruddin in Stratford. Anyone been?
Went looking for it today and couldn't find it! The website says it's at 113, Queensway House, 275-285 Stratford High Street. I found Queensway House, but it seemed to just be an office block with no obvious restaurant presence.
Feb 01, 2014Kake in U.K./Ireland
They do. For recent prices, here's a photo of a flyer I picked up there last week: http://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pug...

My trip to Romford was postponed a couple of times but I finally made it there a couple of days ago.
I had lunch at the Kenya Coffee House, which turns out to be a restaurant as well as a coffee shop. It has a few Kenyan specialities like ugali and mukimo, plus various curries. I had fried tilapia with ugali and creamed spinach — the tilapia was nicely seasoned though a little over-fried in places. I'd not had ugali before, and found it similar to fufu/pounded yam but with a less-smooth texture. The spinach was delicious and I would happily eat a bowlful of it right now.
Photos of my lunch and the menu: http://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pug... and http://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pug...
I also dropped in to the fishmonger recommended by jeremyh1 (its name turns out to be T Bush) — sadly they'd sold out of the cockles by the time I got there! I'll be in Romford again at some point next month and will try again.
Nov 30, 2013Kake in U.K./Ireland
Thank you! I'll take a look at the fishmonger at least.
Elsewhere I've been recommended the Romford BBQ House (formerly Fig Leaf) at 100 South Street, for Turkish barbecue and other dishes.
Oct 17, 2013Kake in U.K./Ireland
Indeed. I'm not enormously hopeful that I'll find somewhere. The Kenya Coffee House ( http://kenyacoffeehouse.eu/ ) is the most likely suggestion I've had so far, but I don't drink coffee so its main selling point is lost on me.
Oct 12, 2013Kake in U.K./Ireland
Is there anywhere interesting to have lunch in Romford? It doesn't have to be fancy, and I'm open to any style of food at all — just something a bit more interesting than e.g. Wetherspoons (which is my Plan B).

Croydon - current recommendations
You're welcome — glad you find it all useful!
Chinese food is the one thing Croydon lacks. The dim sum at Wing Yip is good old-school stuff, and Royal Garden in Addington ( http://www.rgrestaurant.com/ ) looks promising (and I plan to try it at some point) but I haven't found anything non-Cantonese at all.
I used to live near Royal Palace at Surrey Quays, and miss it sorely (I have resorted to getting a takeaway from there when I'm passing through, but the journey home is just a little too long for it to stay good).
Aug 19, 2013Kake in U.K./Ireland
Croydon - current recommendations
What sort of thing are you looking for? In the London Road area, I like Spiceland ( http://london.randomness.org.uk/wiki.... ) for Sri Lankan, Finger Licking ( http://croydon.randomness.org.uk/wiki... ) for Ghanaian, and Mazi ( http://www.mazirestaurant.com/ ) for shish kebabs (done over a charcoal grill and served in fluffy Turkish bread rather than pittas — try their yoğurtlu shish too).
Caprice ( http://london.randomness.org.uk/wiki.... ) does Balkan food — nothing refined, but I've had good tripe and good fish here. Albert's Table ( http://www.albertstable.co.uk/ ) does modern British. And Uncle Lim's ( http://london.randomness.org.uk/wiki.... ) is still there for Malaysian. They added a few new dishes to their menu recently, including Fujian mee (nice chewy noodles in that).

Best Hot Chocolate in London....
I was going to comment on the sweetness too. I had hot chocolate from the Paul A Young branch at the Royal Exchange last year, and it was much too sweet for me; I couldn't actually finish it.
Nov 14, 2012Kake in U.K./Ireland
Whoops, sorry, yes — I'm being confusing. Adana kebab is minced meat, shish is cubed. Mazi do both yoğurtlu adana and yoğurtlu shish. I prefer their shish, but the one I had this month was actually adana, so I thought I'd best nominate that to stay within the rules!
Oct 28, 2012Kake in U.K./Ireland
The chilled hispi cabbage at Dabbous was my second favourite dish of the month; perfectly cooked, and the slight bitterness of the cabbage offset by the tangy mayonnaise.
Oct 27, 2012Kake in U.K./Ireland
Yoğurtlu adana kebab from Mazi on London Road in Croydon. Lamb cubes cooked to the bare minimum over a charcoal grill, then mixed with pieces of fluffy Turkish bread and covered with a rich, tangy tomato and yoghurt sauce. I love the way they cook their lamb, but this particular kebab preparation is my new favourite. The knifework on the accompanying salad is good, too; paper-thin slices of onion, red cabbage, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, and parsley.
I didn't take a photo, but here's one of their lahmacun from earlier this year: http://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pug...

I had one at the Texas Embassy Cantina a few years back: http://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pug... but (a) it was pretty terrible (still raw in the middle) and (b) it doesn't seem to be on their menu any more: http://www.texasembassy.com/foods.html
However it might be worth asking them!

Tierra Peru, Islington, London
Quick notes from a recent visit:
Tamalito de pollo - chicken seemed a bit overcooked, but good texture and flavour in the corn coating
Cebiche mixto - nice sourness and chilli heat, seafood perhaps cured a bit
Papa a la Huancaína - very good texture to the sauce, glossy and well
Arroz chaufa de mariscos - a Chinese-Peruvian dish, fried rice with seafood. I liked that it wasn't too oily.
Lomo saltado de carne - loved the chips soaked in the sauce, and the accompanying plain white rice went well with the sauce too. Beef could maybe have been trimmed a little better, as there were some overly chewy bits.
Yuca frita - great texture, not greasy.
Feb 14, 2012Kake in U.K./Ireland
I ate at Salloos a couple of years ago. The meat (lamb chops and haleem) was good, the veg (chickpeas and okra) competent but nothing special. Overall, I felt it was priced a little above its quality level. My fuller writeup is here: http://london.randomness.org.uk/wiki....

Crystal China, Bermondsey/Southwark, London
Is this the place where Super Nova used to be? Next to Tower Tandoori?
Sep 07, 2011Kake in U.K./Ireland
Menu photos now here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pug...
I didn't find what we had to be too oily, but then we had one stewed dish, two cold dishes, and some boiled dumplings, so they'd have had to mess up quite badly for those to be oily.
There do seem to be a fair few Sichuan dishes on the menu; for example if you look at this page - http://www.flickr.com/photos/kake_pug... - number 81 is 魚香肉絲 (fish-fragrant/sea-spiced shredded pork), number 95 (which might be what you had) is 水煮牛肉 (water-boiled beef), number 99 is kung po/gong bao chicken. Also, I thought number 106 (剁椒蒸魚頭/steamed fish head with chopped chillies) was a Hunan dish (though I could be wrong, but 剁椒 is usually the Hunan chopped salted chillies, isn't it?). It's a bit confusing to see these in a section headed "Manchurian fried dishes".
Worth trying would be the "mixed vegetable and shredded pork with glass noodles" (number 13; 東北大拉皮/Dongbei dalapi) — I've only seen these at one other place in London, Royal Palace in Surrey Quays. Also the "special mixed vegetables" (number 1; 老虎菜/tiger salad) — another not-hugely-common dish in London, though the best rendition I've had here was in Sanxia Renjia on Goodge Street.
Aug 30, 2011Kake in U.K./Ireland
Sorry this isn't in time for your visit: but I really enjoyed the red-cooked pork with glass noodles. I think the noodles were made with sweet potato starch, and they had a great texture. The pork was braised really well, too, to the point where the skin was almost as soft as the fat.
Also had shredded kelp, cucumber with pork, and pork and suan cai dumplings, all good.
(Apologies for imprecise dish names, haven't sorted out my menu photos yet as I had to take them on my phone.)

VIDEO: HOBBIT Director Peter Jackson Visits THE COLBERT REPORT
In major anticipation of the film THE HOBBIT: AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY, J.R.R. Tolkien enthusiast/super fan Stephen Colbert hosted a guest appearance by the film's director Peter Jackson last night on the THE COLBERT REPORT on Comedy Central.
Joked the host, "You've shot three films. Why wait another year for the next one? Why not just show me the next one now." He continued, "I won't tell anyone except the 4.5 million people on my Twitter feed."
"The Hobbit" hits theaters nationwide on Friday, December 14.
Colbert has exhibited his exuberant fascination for all things Tolkien throughout the show's history - whether it's sparring with James Franco on "The Lord of the Rings" knowledge, digressing with Elijah Wood during his "Happy Feet Two" promotion appearance by discussing his "Lord of the Rings" roles and comparing swords, or analyzing John McCain's "Lord of the Rings" debt crisis analogy in Congress.
"The Colbert Report" is produced by Jon Stewart's Busboy Productions, Inc. in association with Colbert's Spartina Productions, Inc. Stewart, Colbert and Tom Purcell are the Executive Producers with MerEdith Bennett, Richard Dahm and Barry Julien as Co-Executive Producers. The series' Head Writer is Opus Moreschi and it is directed by Jim Hoskinson. David Bernath is the Executive in Charge of Production for COMEDY CENTRAL.

Arizona Diamondbacks
Former Diamondback Curt Schilling diagnosed with cancer
One of the best pitchers in Arizona Diamondbacks history now faces his toughest challenge yet.
Curt Schilling, who was with the Diamondbacks from 2000 to 2003, was diagnosed with cancer.
The news was reported by ESPN.com, whom Schilling, now 47, works for as an analyst.
"I've always believed life is about embracing the gifts and rising up to meet the challenges," Schilling said in a statement released by ESPN. "We've been presented with another challenge, as I've recently been diagnosed with cancer."
Schilling, who attended Shadow Mountain High School in Phoenix, compiled a 58-28 record with a 3.14 ERA in 108 games with the Diamondbacks. He helped lead the team to the World Series title in 2001, where he was named co-MVP along with fellow hurler Randy Johnson.
"My father left me with a saying that I've carried my entire life and tried to pass on to our kids: 'Tough times don't last, tough people do.' Over the years in Boston, the kids at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute have shown us what that means. With my incredibly talented medical team I'm ready to try and win another big game.
"I've been so very blessed and I feel grateful for what God has allowed my family to have and experience, and I'll embrace this fight just like the rest of them, with resolute faith and head on."
