The U.S. Federal Reserve has raised interest rates for the second time this year, acting to prevent the economy from growing too rapidly despite recent evidence of a slowdown.
The central bank raised the overnight federal funds rate a quarter-point to 1.5 percent, slightly increasing borrowing costs for many businesses and consumers. The move, which had been widely anticipated, came despite a startling report that the economy created just 32,000 jobs in July, far short of the 220,000 or so that forecasters were expecting. It was the second straight month of weak job growth and raised the possibility that what Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan has described as an economic "soft spot" is lasting longer than anticipated.
Because the employment report came out so soon before meeting of Mr. Greenspan and fellow policy-makers, the Fed had little choice but to follow through on its previously stated plan to continue with a "measured" series of rate hikes, analysts said. Anything else could have by given financial markets the impression the Fed was worried about the possibility of a further slowdown.
Financial market participants were convinced that the Fed planned to raise rates and felt a failure to act would raise "a credibility issue" for the central bank and potentially cause "substantial" damage to the economy by causing a sell-off in the stock market, said Lynn Reaser, chief economist for Banc of America Capital Management.
Despite the weak employment figures, most analysts believe the economy is in relatively good shape based on a range of other indicators, including rising business and consumer confidence and early evidence of stronger retail sales in July.
But some analysts believe the Fed may choose to leave rates unchanged at the next scheduled meeting of policy-makers Sept. 21, especially if the August employment report is weak. That likely would leave rates unchanged until after the presidential election because the Fed's policy-making Open Market Committee is not scheduled to meet again until Nov. 10.
The Fed lowered rates 13 times from January 2001 through June 2003, bringing the benchmark overnight rate to its lowest level in 46 years in an effort to stimulate the economy after the end of the nation's longest postwar expansion. Some analysts say the tremendously low rates are no longer needed, especially now that the threat of deflation appears to have passed, and with it a dangerous the risk to the stability of the banking system.

A 4chan Directory - The 48 Forums on 4chan That Aren't /b/
- topic:
- Niche Going
- Websites
All the attention goes to 4chan's subforum /b/, a "no rules" board on which antisocial activity flourishes. They're largely responsible for the infamous attacks on Scientology from a few years back, and more recently the raid on the RIAA and MPAA websites. On this site I've covered /b/'s hack of the Time 100 list and their effort to send Justin Bieber to North Korea, among others.
Urlesque reader Thanquee wrote the following:
I DO wish people would stop calling /b/ 4chan. /b/ is only a part of 4chan - a large part, but only a part. There are many other boards like /tg/, /toy/, /fa/ and /fit/ (traditional games, toys and figurines, fashion and fitness)that I frequent that are much nicer than /b/ and don't go in for the whole 'HURR LETS RAID DEM FOR BEIN DUMB' schtick. I think it shouldn't be just /b/ that gets the spotlight either. /v/ (video games), for example, is a huge and fascinating community that I'd love to see given coverage.
I just hate it when people call /b/ 4chan because when I'm browsing /tg/ or something people ask what I'm looking at and then they smile knowingly 'Oh, 4chan' as if I'm immersed in this world of raids, fringe pornography and racism.
Thanquee's right. We often use the term "4chan" to describe the activity on /b/ because it's more familiar nomenclature, but it's unfair to lump the other 48 boards in with /b/. So that's why I've prepared this guide to 4chan's 48 lesser-known boards.
Be warned, even though most of the boards are safe for work, it's still 4chan. Be careful when clicking through, because even heavily moderated boards still host NSFW content now and then.
You'll find questions that range from, "How can I get past my shyness to talk to the girl I like in homeroom" to "I'm applying to art school and need to build a portfolio. What should I include?" to "What's this rash on my arm and how can I treat it w/o seeing a doctor?"
In the words of Munroe:
There would be no "all your base are belong to us", no "lol", no "asl", no "there are no girls on the internet". No "I know rite", no "hi everyone", no "morning sucks." Just thoughtful, full sentences.
And it seems to work, to some extent. The content is notably more sophisticate than the anarchy on /b/.
hot on the web
By some guy
All this PR doesn't help when they do things like the attack on Boing Boing they just pulled off. Like Glen Beck and the Tea Party violence, they can try to distance themselves But they are linked to it none the less.
By Thanquee
Well, you're an idiot. My point was that /b/ is only a part (albeit a large one) of 4chan and that much of the wider community steer clear of /b/, are very elitist and wouldn't THINK of talking to the 'lower classes' of /b/ or just don't browse it. Thus a good part of 4chan actually had not part in that at all. Besides, you've almost certainly never actually been to /b/ itself if you think all that happens there is raiding. I browse /b/ quite infrequently now, preferring to stick to /fa/, but back when I was on /b/ at least an hour a day I wouldn't see a raid thread for days. /b/ Is really, really not just about raids.
In fact, it is only a very small splinter group called /i/ (/i/nvasion or /i/nsurgency) on a few other boards called 888chan and 7chan that actually do most of the ZOMFG1337HAXXOR stuff anyway.
By just a random passerby
Think of 4chan as people on the right side of the political spectrum. The people on /b/ are the tea partiers; they are a small minority of the side, but they're the noisiest so people keep hearing about them.
By lol
I like how urlesque's existence is entirely dependent on the material that comes out of 4chan.
Interesting business model.

Brace yourself: Chris Rock, the no-holds-barred comic who brought us such raunch-a-thon specials as 1999's Bigger & Blacker and 1996's Bring the Pain is pulling a Billy Crystal. Yup, he's hosting the venerable 77th Academy Awards Feb. 27.
While more conservative Academy members may be squirming in their seats, they shouldn't worry that Rock, 39, might suddenly decide to work blue. He previously hosted the MTV Video Music Awards (in both 1999 and 2003), and also presented/cohosted at the 1998 Emmys. Rock (who's currently shooting The Longest Yard with Adam Sandler) has also logged plenty of time in the audience at awards ceremonies, picking up three Emmys for his TV work and a pair of Grammys for his comedy albums.
Rock is a far cry from Oscar's most reliable host, eight-timer Billy Crystal, but the Academy is clearly hoping Rock's edge will draw in a crowd worthy of his predecessor. When Whoopi Goldberg, David Letterman, and Steve Martin stepped into Crystal's shoes, ratings fell off. ''I am a huge fan of Chris Rock,'' Gil Cates, the producer of the Oscars telecast, told the AP. ''He always makes me laugh and he always has something interesting to say.'' Yes, but did he see Pootie Tang?

1 : a respite or a time of respite from something : intermission
2 a : a scheduled period during which activity (as of a court or school) is suspended b : a period of exemption from work granted to an employee
3 : a period spent away from home or business in travel or recreation <had a restful vacation at the beach>
4 : an act or an instance of vacating
Who knew vacation had such a vast definition. There was a time when I only thought of a vacation as a big trip to Disneyland or Hawaii. Now I see vacation opportunities all around me. I realize that I do not need to go far, or leave for several weeks to actually take a vacation from my everyday life.
As the definition states, a vacation can be a period of time spent away from home for travel or recreation, or simply a time of respite from everyday life.
This definition of vacation opened my mind to a new way of thinking about what a vacation truly is.
I actually have the time to take little vacations throughout the year, which is a fairly new thought for me.
By making a conscious choice of taking a day, three days, week or even a few simple hours, I can create a mini-vacation from my normal routine!
WOW, what a cool concept!
I can make it feel even more like a vacation from my normal life, if I plan out activities to do and places to go ahead of time.
Cutting back on the amount of time and stress that it takes to head out the door is a huge key to enjoying my vacation, no matter how big or small that vacation might be!
This week my mini vacation is a picnic!
Whether you plan a picnic for your family or group of friends a picnic is an easy way to slip away from your reality for a few hours. A simple respite in the middle of a busy week, a picnic takes me out of my home and into the fresh air and sunshine where I get to spend a few hours playing with and enjoying the people I love most in this world.
Life doesn't get much better than this!
Making a picnic doable at a moments notice is simple to do with a little planning and preparation.
I have a picnic kit ready to go, so that I can take a quick vacation when the sunshine calls us to come out and take a break from life.
Getting out the door quickly and without too much effort is key to enjoying a vacation no matter how big or small.
Let me show you what I include in my picnic kit.
In my pantry I have a bin that is specifically for food that I use for picnics. Now, I do not put perishable food items in here of course, but I do include a couple of bags of chips, single containers of apple sauce and fruit cups, an unopened jar of peanut butter and jelly, some crackers, and anything else that I can think of that we might want to eat at a picnic. After a picnic, I simply take stock of what we need from the grocery store to refill our picnic bin and restock it when I am putting away all of the bags of groceries.
Once again the bin is ready for me to quickly pick up and go.
The second part of my picnic kit is the picnic basket!
I picked up this colorful basket at Target in their seasonal section, if you do not own a picnic basket, or simply need to replace an old one this is the perfect time to pick one up.
This basket holds items like an outdoor table cloth, stacking bowls with lids, paper plates, plastic cups, and a custom made caddy to hold napkins, utensils, and condiments.
The basket sits on a shelf stocked with these items until I am ready to pack our meal for our picnic.
Again the key here is having everything in one place ready to go.
Simple food is important for a picnic. There are times when grabbing a loaf of bread , my picnic bin and basket is all I have time for and we can head out the door knowing that everything I need is in these two containers. Then, there are picnics that are planned for a specific day, and I can make a salad, fried chicken, or bring the makings for cooking kabobs on the grill. The great part of any of these options is that they are simple to pull off, because the containers for my salads, fried chicken and kabobs are easy to get to, they are in my picnic basket. They can then be filled with yummy food and packed back into my picnic basket and we are ready to walk out the door.
I always keep a couple of picnic blankets in the back of my van, so no matter where we go, if there are no picnic tables we have a place to enjoy our picnic.
When I get home from our picnic, I place opened condiments in a plastic container labeled picnic condiments and place it in the refrigerator.
Items that need to be washed or restocked in the picnic basket or picnic bin are taken care of, so that our next picnic is easy to pull off!
These super simple tips can make the picnic a perfect little vacation.
Traveling far from home can be extremely fun, but there is no reason to wait on a big vacation to travel away from your home, and take a break from your everyday routine.
With a little planning and preparation you can be ready for a quick vacation at any moment!
This is what Saving Your Sanity: Summer Travel is all about, planning for both the big adventures and the quick simple getaways as well.
They are all good and they all count!
Leave a comment about your favorite picnic location by May 27th at 12:00pm and you will be entered in a drawing to win a custom caddy (created by me) to add to your picnic kit!
Be sure to include the city and state.
People who are traveling this summer may want to check out your favorite picnic spot, while on their vacation!
Good luck!

Little Miss is growing and so I have taken the challenge of finding the best possible car seat in our budget. There are just so many options, I'm a little overloaded right now with info but thought I would share some things that took me by surprise....
DID YOU KNOW HOME DEPOT SOLD CAR SEATS?? For those of you that did sorry I am behind the eight ball ...lol. That got me to searching out other odd retailers---Walgreens, Kroger Marketplace were two other I discovered. There is a Kroger near me but I never heard of a Kroger Marketplace before. I know a lot of people just make a trip to BBB or BRU but by far the best deals I have come by are at Baby Depot, one of the seats I was looking at was 45 bucks cheaper! Kmart sometimes has specials if you can catch them. My whole list of retailers......

Keep in mind that if you don't currently do this much, you will need to build up to it gradually. It's also a good idea to get your doctor's OK before increasing the amount or intensity of physical activity you do. Certain activities may not be advised for people who have diabetes complications such as eye or kidney disease. Also, because physical activity usually lowers blood glucose, you may need to take steps to prevent hypoglycemia while exercising. Some of the ways to do this include cutting back on insulin or oral medicines before exercising, having a snack before or during exercise, or changing your meal schedule to accommodate your exercise schedule. Checking your blood glucose before, during, and after physical activity will help you determine which of these steps may be most effective.
Too much alcohol
Large studies done in Great Britain and Finland have found that heavy alcohol intake is associated with weight gain and obesity in men. Given that alcoholic beverages are often high in calories, this news is perhaps not so surprising.
A serving of alcohol is considered to be one 12-ounce beer, 5 ounces of wine (excluding dessert wine), or 1 1/2 ounces of 80-proof distilled spirits such as gin, whiskey, vodka, or rum. Each of these servings contains about 14 grams of pure alcohol and roughly 100–200 calories. Any caloric mixers, such as fruit or vegetable juices, soft drinks, cream, coconut milk, or sugar, raise the calorie count. The American Diabetes Association recommends that those who choose to drink alcoholic beverages limit themselves to one alcoholic drink (or one serving) a day for women and up to two alcoholic drinks (or two servings) a day for men.
To minimize calories from alcoholic beverages, consider drinking light beer in place of regular beer and using diet soda, seltzer, or club soda in place of caloric mixers in mixed drinks. Limiting quantities to one drink per day for women and two drinks per day for men — or less — will help with weight control.
Because alcohol can cause hypoglycemia, particularly when consumed on an empty stomach, it's best to drink alcohol with a meal. (Cutting back on food calories to accommodate alcohol calories is not recommended by the American Diabetes Assocation because of the risk of hypoglycemia.) Alcohol is processed in the liver, which also plays an important role in regulating blood glucose level. When the liver is processing alcohol, it cannot release glucose into the bloodstream when it is needed, and the blood glucose level can drop too low.
Before drinking alcohol, talk with your health-care provider to see if it's safe for you. Some medicines are not safe to take with alcohol, and alcohol can worsen some diabetes complications, including peripheral neuropathy. If you feel that you cannot control the quantity of alcohol you consume, it's best not to drink at all.
Reaching a plateau
When you first cut back on calories and started getting more physical activity, you most likely lost weight. Over time, however, your body adjusts to a consistently lower energy intake, and weight loss slows or stops.
Also, if you dramatically cut your calorie intake when you were diagnosed with diabetes, you may be finding it difficult to maintain such a low intake over the long term, and even a small increase in daily calories can lead to regaining some weight.

We are constantly adding fresh exciting classes which take advantage of the wide variety of seasonal ingredients grown locally while our ongoing Cooking Essentials series is available year round.
Hands-on cooking classes
During your hands-on experience, you will receive instruction from our experienced chef who will go over the recipes and techniques needed to create the dishes you'll be working on. After that, students will break into teams. Each team tackles a recipe from the menu and will head to a station set up with the necessary tools to create the recipe. After all the cooking is done, everyone will enjoy sampling their creations having used their new found cooking skills. The class will conclude with a brief Q&A with the Chef.
Demonstration classes
Our demonstration classes allow you to sit back, relax, and enjoy watching a culinary professional in his/her natural habitat. Watch, listen, learn, taste. You will take home recipes and in some cases even a souvenir from the class. These classes are approximately 3 hours in length.
Join Us!
We look forward to seeing you in Let's Cook. We update our calendar frequently so check back often or click here to opt-in for occasional email announcements and invitations for special events.

I found some awesome fish + map print fabric at the discount fabric store for about $3 a yard, and schemed to make a dress out of it. I had some sketches for some 50's style dresses in mind, but when I got the issue of Burda Style with this pattern in it, I was sold.

Dade Medical College Nursing Program any graduates? - page 2
So I am staring the nursing program (ADN) in the next three weeks, I passed the teas test with an score of 85.3 (they only required a 60), they accepted all my pre-requesites from Miami Dade College so I will go directly into the... Read More
- 0Feb 5, '13 by GrnTea, BSN, MSN, RNThe OP needs to know the difference between "accreditations," as s/he clearly doesn't. NLNAC or CCNE, regional accreditations, are the only ones that will allow you to transfer your credits to another school or allow you to take your FL RN license out of FL to get licensed by reciprocity in another state. Don't take my word for it-- make the calls.
Take off the rose-colored glasses and call a few BONs from other states to be sure that if you pass NCLEX in FL that you will be able to get a license by reciprocity in other states. It's not a given, you know. They would also have to accept your degree program, even if you pass NCLEX in FL after graduation. To quote a poster on another thread about this school, "Even if you graduate from a program that's approved by the Florida BoN but not regionally and NLNAC (or CCNE) accredited, you probably will not be able to get an RN license in another state without more schooling and sitting for the NCLEX again. Your degree will not be accepted by accredited BSN or graduate programs either."
You've had a lot of sound advice. I'm glad you don't need to worry about the money.. Just so you know, though, the cost of the education isn't necessarily the measure of its quality. If you end up having to repeat a lot of credits that will cost you the time you think you're saving now, or more. Good luck-- you're gonna need it.
- 0Feb 26, '13 by KinkyKurlyRNDon't waste you time or money. That's all ill say.
- 0Jun 17, '13 by Stephanie.ERun away now! This program isn't even accredited and lately in Miami hospitals won't hire you without a BSN. Do you guys understand that 60k for an Associates is way too much?! Yeah money isn't a problem now but what about when you have to pay back your loans?! Get ready to pay equivalent to driving a Mercedes or BMW a month. These private schools are scams. I am currently a nursing student at UWF, my BSN will cost me $0 when I am done thorough scholarships and pell grants. And my program is accredited by the CCNE. Don't rush into these programs because they promise you a "career" in 2 years. Take the time to go to a traditional school, your wallet will thank you. And what if you do go to this program and later want a BSN? You're s.o.l, you're stuck with a 60k degree that doesn't mean anything anywhere else.

- 0Sep 7, '13 by SoniaReb@annanursing12
In case anyone is reading this thread: I wouldn't be surprise if Annanursing12 is an employee of Dade Medical College. Some of these for profit institutions do send surrogates to sites like this one to play up their schools. Why would someone spend $60k for an associate degree from a school that is not accredited, when you can get the same degree from a Community College for a fraction of the cost? These schools are just a scam and unfortunately, a lot of students are falling victim of these schools. I think ATI is about to be shut down permanently and we will see many more going out of business soon. Most of the students that attend these For-Profit Schools cannot pass the boards, do not finish their degree and cannot get a job after completing their degree. Sad....
- 0Sep 27, '13 by reddgirlAgain, do your research and do it throughly! This school is going to be closed in less than a year as two of their campuses are going to be shut down by next year March! Plus there are articles about the owner being involved in money laundering, fraud, stealing from financial aid and the whole 9! It is really a big joke. The NCLEX scores just dropped to dismal coming in at 38%! That's sad! These students can't even get jobs and they cheat like it's nobody's business! Poor quality of students but as long as the money is paid, the students get to repeat as many times as they want to. Decent faculty who come here, quickly realize its a sham and hightail it out of there fast! Heck, if you get the "right" professor, they will even sell you the test bank for a decent penny! Anybody can get in because not even English and Math are not a requirement for entry! The students are very disrespectful and do whatever they want and if the faculty intervenes, they get reprimanded! It is schools like this that make a mockery out of nursing! A real joke I'd say! The school is a laughing stock of nursing schools in Dade county. I would not take anyone who came from here seriously on a job and I am speaking from experience because I used to work here! I'm even embarrassed to say that! 😩😩
- 0Mar 13 by Cubangirl2014Can you just please explain to me how do u know that the school is closing this year i am attending this school and i am very worried now thank u in advance for your answer
- 0Apr 5 by nurseangelique@cubangirl2014 I am a student in Jacksonville. How was the precore assessment? Was it the hesi,tabe,or teas? Thanks in advance.

Claude-Mathias* Fanef (Born Matthias Farnsworth)
Ancestor of the
* In French, " Matthias " is written with only one " T ".
The story of the Phaneuf family starts on October 2, 1713, at Rivi�re-des-Prairies with the wedding of Catherine Charpentier and Claude-Mathias Fanef, born Farnsworth 1 . All the Phaneuf living in Qu�bec and all those around the world are issued from this union.
The parents of Catherine, Gilles dit Jean Charpentier and Fran�oise Hunault got married on April 22, 1691, at Rivi�re-des-Prairies 2 . Even if some records were lost by fire or otherwise, everything makes us believe that Catherine was the first child of the Charpentier and that she was born about 1692, probably at Rivi�re-des-Prairies. The grand-parents of Catherine, Jean Charpentier dit Lapaille and Barbe Renaud were married in Qu�bec. Jean came from Veulettes-sur-Mer, Pays de Caux, Ar. Dieppe, Archev. Rouen in Normandie, where lived the great-grand-parents of Catherine, Cyprien Charpentier and CatherineTh�relle. Barbe was the daughter of Vincent Renaud and Marie Martin from Notre-Dame-de-Cogne, LaRochelle in Aunis 3.
Claude-Mathias Fanef was born "Matthias Farnsworth", at Groton, Massachusetts, on August 6, 1690 (old style calendar in use then in New England) 4 . He was the sixth child of Matthias Farnsworth (Matthias II) and Sarah Nutting, who got married at Groton, Massachusetts on March 1st, 1681 15 .
The grandfather of Claude-Mathias had the same first name Matthias (Matthias I) and he was the first Farnsworth of the ascendant line to cross over to New England. He was born in England around July 20, 1615 in the Manchester area, Lancashire county 16 .
This is probably the place where he got married, but the name of his wife is unknown. The couple had three children: Elizabeth, Matthias Jr and John. Supposedly all born in England. In 1655, this first of our Farnsworth ancestor in America, was living in the surroundings of Lynn, Massachusetts, where he married a second time, to Mary Farr with whom he had eight children. Around 1660 he settled in Groton Massachusetts with his family. He was a pioneer of this town incorporated in 1655, and occupied important posts in that community 5 .
Matthias III, who became "Claude-Mathias Fanef" owing to the force of circumstances, has not known his grandfather who died the previous year to his birth. He was only three year old when his father Matthias II, died in 1693. His mother married again with John Stone, on December 7, 1698, at Concord, Massachusetts, and they stayed in Groton, where two halfbrothers of Matthias were born (John, 1699 and James, 1701) 6.
In those days, New France and New England were continuously in war. The Indian tribes were divided between the two parties, according to their economical interests.
When the young Matthias III was captured by the Indians allied to the French, he and thirteen other men were reaping in a field at Groton. Nowhere else, in a written document of Groton, it is mentioned that someone else of the family was either captured, wounded or killed in a skirmish or an attack. Only two implied in the skirmish with about twenty Indians that day, somebody by the name of Butterfield who managed to escape somehow, sometime 5 , and another man were captured. It appears that Matthias was that other man brought in captivity in New France. Nobody else from Groton was captured during the summer 1704 7 .
The Indians who captured him on August 11 (Gregorian calendar) , brought him to Montr�al, more precisely in their tribe of Sault-au-R�collet. Matthias stayed captive of the Indians at the Sault until the end of 1705 or early in 1706. He was then bought by the Sulpicians, in fact by sir Fran�ois Vachon de Belmont and he was baptized on January 10, 1706 8. His godfather was Governor Claude de Ramezay (origin of Claude added to his first name) and his godmother, Elisabeth Souart, wife of Charles Lemoyne sieur de Longueuil.They tried to franchify his name according to the english phonetic of the time. This gave"Farneth" for his baptism, then "Fanef" at his wedding. After many variations (Farnets,Fairnout, Fanef, Phaneffe, Faneffe, Faneuf) according to the caprice of the scribes, it is only in 1755 that it was spelled "Phaneuf" for the first time in the registers ofPointe-aux-Trembles 2 . Claude-Mathias asked for his naturalization on October 30, 1706 17 . He will obtain it inMay 1710 9 . He worked for the Sulpicians until around 1711. In acknowledgment for his services, he obtained from Sir de Belmont a valuable estate at Rivi�re-des-Prairies, including land, house and farm buildings, on July 19, 1711 10.
October 2nd. 1713
October 2, 1713, is a great day for Claude-Mathias, he got married to the girl of his neighbour, Catherine Charpentier 11 . They lived happily at Rivi�re-des-Prairies where they brought up ten of their twelve children (two boys died at a very young age). The ten children got married and gave them a total of 115 grandchildren (110 were born before the death of Claude-Mathias) 18 . The "Fanef" name was assured by six boys. Joseph settled in Ste-Rose, while the others, Claude, Fran�ois, Jean-Baptiste, Paul and Pierre, settled successively in St-Antoine-sur-Richelieu. The four girls settled in Ste-Rose. As it was the case for their ancestors, they were pioneers of these villages12. When their children were brought up, being lonely, near the end of their life, Catherine and Mathias joined their sons in St-Antoine. According to the 1765 census, they were probably living with Jean-Baptiste family 13. Mathias died on August 8, 1773 at the age of 83, and Catherine on June 29, 1777, probably at the age of 85. They were both buried in Saint-Antoine-sur-Richelieu 14. Today we find their descendants not only in Qu�bec, but also in other provinces of Canada, as well as in the United States and Europe.

GeoTools 2.6.x looks to be focused on quality and performance.
As always the scope and timing of releases is set by you - the members of our community. There is a host of interesting "unsupported" modules that can make it into this release based on time and funding.
October 1st
Feature Complete for FOSS4G
October 9tn
Result of QA run
October 16tn
Final Released
- GeoServer 2.0-RC2 Code Freeze September 25th; Release Candidate October 2nd
- uDig RoadMap
2.6-RC Planning
We are stuck on an ECW crash which we need to upgrade to iamgeio-ext 1.0.4 ( GEOT-2768 |http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOT-2768]) in order to fix. It will take a day for the uDig team to test this change once it has been applied.
When this bug is done we should be in a position to make a release candidate.
Afabiani has updated WCS 1.1 EMF model.
Emily has supplied a rendering patch for GEOT-2766 that needs review.
Vitali has a good idea for a safety check on feature reader creation - but no bug report yet.
CRS Lab has stopped rendering when data is reprojected.
A couple steps are still missing from the previous milestone release:
- We need to ensure the the jars can be rebuilt from the source download
- Javadocs are not produced; the steps documented do not work for me
- There is no location to publish the javadocs (will propose codehaus webdav?)
The EMF model in modules/unsupported/ogc has moved to modules/ogc in order to reflect the fact it is part of the library.
Stefan Kruger has upgraded Atlas styler from 2.4.x and has been a great source of QA and patches for this release. Thanks for your help Stefan.
jdbc aggregate function patch seems to be in full swing.
gt-swing is ready to go. Jody has sent an email asking move it to supported status.
Andrea has moved the swing renderer module to unsupported as most of the improvements have been folded into streaming renderer now
There are a couple release glitches discovered during the previous 2.6-M2 release.
- unsupported modules were included (were were going to exclude them or gather them up into an unsupported folder). Apparently building clean and then assembly:assembly will sort it out.
- build order trouble with gt-jdbc modules? No problems were found when making the 2.6-M3 release
- build path troubles on win32 for shapefile testing are now resolved
- source download was not produced - problem ended up being providing enough memory. We were unable to verify that the source download works.
- image moasic api changed breaking udig; we have disabled the functionality requiring per tile channel control
We have tossed both gt-swing-widgets and gt-swing-widgets-pending in the bit bucket as their module maintainers have stepped down. We have salvaged a new gt-swing with s strict mandate to provide user interface classes for our demos; nothing too fancy - just enough that we are not wrecking out examples with user interface code.
User Guide:
We expect the render to gain additional capabilities as members of the public supply patches.
Chart symbolizers
Using the dynamic symbolizers framework and the Eastwood charts project allows to paint charts over a map using the Google Charts syntax for defining the chart properties and data.
Process API improvements
The process API, still in unsupported land, has been changed to allow integration of external libraries such as Sextante as plugins of the GeoTools process API. No Sextante integration module is available due to licensing issues (Sextante is GPL) but you can find a bridge in the GeoServer experimental WPS module
Next Generation JDBC
Thus far the "Next Generation" JDBC DataStore are worth being excited about, they are more maintainable, with a cleaner architecture and more even support of advanced features (aggregation functions or support for dates for example). These are also available on the previous 2.5.x branch.
Module Cleanup
Andrea has organised a module clean up aligning modules with a module maintainer; or deleting modules that are unused as required.
Thanks Andrea.
Filter Cleanup
Andrea Aime has been cleaning up one of the top issues on our technical debt page - cleaning up after the transition to GeoAPI filter done way back in GeoTools 2.3. The work is incomplete.
Symbology Encoding
We have updated out data model to support the constructs used by the symbology encoding specification; and in a few isolated cases received patches to hook them up to the render (such as Unit of Measure support).
N-Dimensional GridCoverage
The new Coverage-API for N-Dimensional Coverage access has been heavily revisited in order to allow handle a fully comprehensive set of metadata containing informations about the Coverage spatio-temporal domain and multi-dimensional range set.
Most of the work has been alredy done and we sucesfully used it succesfully on some of our projects. The low level part, based on the JAI ImageIO-Ext for ND data interfaces, produces a very good set of metadata, and the GeoTools Coverage API module is already able to map an retrieve the correct image index from complex datasets.
Actually we have working plugins for NetCDF-CF, HDF4 and GRIB-1 datasets and also others.
Also a GeoServer 1.7.6 WCS 1.0 ND prototype have been produced to support the new Coverage API above, and actually we are develping a brand new stable and efficient version of WCS 1.0/1.1 for GeoServer trunk.
The development requires some steps before completing, which we are going to list below:
- Finalize and test the gt-temporal unsupported module as well as the new WCS 1.0 EMF bindings almost done
- Finalize and test the WCS 1.0 EMF bindings for GeoServer trunk (hopefully release 2.1) almost done
- Finalize and test the new gt-coverage-api data access module
- Finish the development of the GeoServer WCS 1.0/1.1 ND business logic
Technical Debt
There is a Technical Debt page with details of some "undone" work (often work left over when a commercial funding ended for a specific task).

One of Oughterard's best known citizens and renowned for being one of the most important supporter in Connemara Rowing, Christy Butler will be sadly missed. Always one of the most prominent faces at the annual local regatta and always an active member of the rowing scene, his absence will be as noticeable as his efforts were impressive.
For the past ten years Christy has been part of the revived Oughterard Regatta committee (1999) and before that was a member of the original regatta (1950's – early 1990's). His commitment and experience in the sport came from his time in the boats, rowing and racing for years all around the country in all conditions.
Christy's lifelong passion for local sports can only be admired. As a rower, an organiser, a mentor and a knowledgeable patron, Christy was a model for a life immersed in the locality, always ambitious, always involved.
The Oughterard Regatta Committee would like to express their deepest condolences to Gretta, Christy's family and friends, likewise its gratitude for all the work and time Christy selflessly offered through the years.

Wildflower season is just around the corner, and Jepson Prairie docents with the Solano Land Trust are ready to share the first wave of vernal pool flowers with weekend tours beginning Saturday, March 16. Weather permitting, there will be two-hour guided walks starting at 10 a.m. every Saturday and Sunday through Mother's Day, Sunday, May 12.
Admission is free, but donations are accepted with gratitude.
A vernal pool is a world of exceptional diversity and an ecological system of unimaginable complexity, and the Jepson Prairie Preserve is one of the best remaining examples of vernal pools in California. Guests will enjoy an easy, meandering walk under wide-open skies with knowledgeable docents while exploring the bunchgrass prairie and walking alongside the claypan vernal pools.
The prairie is transformed by winter rains into fields of stunning wildflowers, including white meadowfoam, yellow carpet and miniature lupine. Docents are also on hand to introduce visitors to the rare aquatic life that live in the ephemeral pools, including vernal pool fairy shrimp, conservancy fairy shrimp and the larvae of the California tiger salamander.
Visitors should bring drinking water and protection from sun and wind; it is often windy at Jepson Prairie. They also should be prepared for the chance of fog, rain and wet trails. There is one portable toilet onsite.
The Jepson Prairie Preserve is at the intersection of Highway 113 and Cook Lane, about 10 miles south of Dixon and eight miles north of Highway 12. Parking is along the road near the eucalyptus trees.
Since its founding in 1986, Solano Land Trust has permanently protected more than 20,000 acres of working farms and natural areas in Solano County. For more information and directions, visit www.solanlolandtrust.org.

Balance, Fairness and the Burden of Proof: A Christmas Gift Worth Treasuring
South Wales Against Wrongful Conviction (SWAWC),
Falsely Accused Carers and Teachers (FACT)
False Accusation Support Organisation (FASO)
jointly call upon Welsh Assembly Members and relevant authorities to make themselves fully aware of the dangers which can attach to accusations of sexual abuse and the corresponding caution which is required when assessing them.
As an aid to these endeavours we will be presenting copies of the late Richard Webster's meticulously researched books "The Great Children's Home Panic" and "The Secret of Bryn Estyn" to members of the Welsh Assembly. We fear that, in the current, anxiety-ridden climate, there is a danger that Richard Webster's poignant account of "The making of a modern witch hunt" will be forgotten and the mistakes of the past repeated.
The presentation of these thought provoking Christmas Gifts to Members of the Welsh Assembly will take place at 12.30 pm on Wednesday 5th December 2012 at the Senedd Building on Cardiff Bay.
To quote solicitor Chris Saltrese, from a recent FACT Press Release: –
"The Home Affairs Select Committee examined the broader issue of past abuse in children's homes in 2002. Its report was highly critical of current police practices and found that miscarriages of justice had occurred. This report was shelved by the then Labour government"
Ten years on, the word "alleged" is increasingly absent from the messages broadcast by politicians, NGOs and the media in relation to sexual abuse generally. This we believe will bring about more tragic cases of false accusation, destroying the lives of individuals and their families and friends and destroying with them the fundamental idea that citizens should be protected from arbitrary conviction and protected by a burden of proof.
Dr Dennis Eady of South Wales against Wrongful Conviction comments; -
"Accusations of sexual abuse are very often difficult both to prove and to mount a defence against. When such accusations go back many years these problems become worse still. We must be mindful that, however unpalatable such accusations may be, the abandonment of the burden of proof presents a danger to everyone in society. Convictions based on volume of accusations, or convictions prompted by an atmosphere of outrage rather than by reliable evidence, are inherently dangerous and misleading"
Margaret Gardener Director of FASO (False Accusations Support Organisation) comments: -
"IT CAN HAPPEN TO YOU! A false allegation of abuse can cause you and your family enormous stress; your family can break down; you, the accused, can lose your self-worth (to the point of suicide), your job, voluntary work, house and home and any chance of ever setting up a family again."
A FACT spokesman said:
"It is not the care workers that are in denial but the institutions of the State. Child abuse is horrific, but so are false allegations. FACT calls on politicians of all persuasions and those involved in child protection and criminal justice to read Richard Webster's books and to judge for themselves just who are the innocent victims in this case".
Earlier this month FACT North Wales held a series of lectures in memory of the late Richard Webster, a distinguished cultural historian and author of the "Secret of Bryn Estyn – the making of a modern witch hunt."
For almost a decade Webster interviewed key people associated with the Waterhouse Inquiry including victims of abuse, falsely accused staff and officials who provided evidence to the Inquiry. Webster sought to establish whether Sir Ronald Waterhouse was correct in concluding that there was widespread abuse in North Wales care homes or whether, in fact, his inquiry itself formed part of a modern witch hunt?
Webster concluded that whilst some abuse did take place in North Wales care homes it certainly did not take place on the scale that was alleged and that there were many instances when staff (and others) were falsely accused.
"The Secret of Bryn Estyn" is essential reading for all truth seekers, and in particular, for anyone who is really concerned to understand the real secret of Bryn Estyn – that abuse was not endemic and that the vast majority of staff did their best for the young people who lived there – often with limited resources and in very difficult circumstances.
It is a book all politicians, particularly those associated with Wales, ought to read and we very much hope that Assembly Members will find time to do so over the Christmas recess.
As one senior politician* has already remarked, it is "a book of national importance".
Another well respected politician** described Webster's account as a "a tragic story" adding that he was in no doubt that a whole new genre of miscarriage of justice had arisen and that Webster had done us all a service by documenting so meticulously what went wrong in this seminal case.
The Home Affairs Select Committee examined the broader issue of past abuse in children's homes in 2002 resulting in the publication of its "Report into the investigation and trial of people accused of sexual abuse in children's homes". The Committee's report was highly critical of police practice at that time and found that numerous miscarriages of justice had occurred. The report however was largely ignored by the Government.
* The Earl Freddie Howe, Shadow Minister of Health 2002 – (quoted on rear book cover soft back edition of "The Secret of Bryn Estyn")
** Chris Mullin, Labour MP, (quoted on the frontispiece and rear cover – soft back edition)
FACT (Falsely Accused Carers and Teachers) is a voluntary organisation set up in 2000 in response to the escalating number of historic police trawl investigations implicating innocent care workers, teachers and other professionals, and is particularly active in North Wales.
FASO (False Allegations Support Organisation) is a voluntary organisation dedicated to supporting anyone affected by a false allegation of abuse.
SWAWC (South Wales Against Wrongful Conviction) offers mutual support to victims of miscarriages of justice and their families and friends. SWAWC campaigns for greater safeguards and a more rational criminal justice and appeal system. SWAWC is provided with practical support by a student team from the Cardiff University Law School Innocence Project.

I've got a way to go with Abel yet; I can't do FADCs at all, but the earlier stuff looks useful.
The title sequence to a Saturday morning kids' cartoon series. Of Watchmen. It is not, shall we say, particularly reverent. Probably better for it.
Tom's been poking Heroku, and now, so have I. It's proper brilliant: a rackup file, a tiny Sinatra app, and the Heroku gem, and you're building webapps in ten minutes. It's crazy and brilliant, and exactly the kind of thing of which we need more of.
"It's new fun in some Russian cities, to jump from the bridge with the rope in a big group, when there is no water under the bridge but raw firm ice, also they use to jump at that same moment when the train is going thru the bridge". The pictures explain it pretty well.

Google is set to (probably) announce the new and improved Nexus 7 tomorrow, but we've been taking a look at the device ahead of time. Some of the specs from previous rumors were dead on, and some not so much. We've got all the details and benchmarks right here. So let's dive in.
If you happen to have any grains of salt handy, now would be a good time to pull them out. MoDaCo is reporting that sources have filled the site in with details on the rumored Nexus device to come out of LG. The specs sound about in line with what we would expect from a device of this caliber, sporting a quad-core Snapdragon S4 Pro, Android 4.2, and a curious 8GB/16GB set of storage options.

If you worry it won't come out right - use this product.I having been using this product for over 10 years. I feel safe that if I don't like the color it isn't permanent. The color doesn't always last the length of time indicated on the box. It is easy to use and I have never had a mistake. I do wish they would make the mousse version again as it was easy to apply. — 6 years, 9 months agoMelbat | 6 reviews

- Add the ginger, garlic, five-spice, chilli powder and mangetout to the browned mince, then fry for a few mins more until fragrant and the pods are bright green. Splash in the stock, add the noodles, then season with the soy sauce. Pile into bowls (use tongs, it's easier), sprinkling with the sesame oil and red chilli if using.

This was brilliant! Never used mince with noodles before but it came together so well with the sauce that basically just stuck to the noodles, mmmm!
Posted it up on my blog too! This is how it turned out
I couldn't find sugarsnap peas, so I used dwarf beans instead. Will maybe opt out on the chili next time, or only use half of it, hot hot hot!

Of course, the US role is diminishing across the planet. People are beginning to recognize… there are all of these disclosures that are coming to the forefront now. People are beginning to extrapolate. It's clear."
The CIA has just released documents which clearly indicate that the whole story of the weapons of mass destruction was a fabrication. This particular situation right here speaks to that situation. They've lied on several occasions.
Now, if you couple that with the diminishing role of the United States, they're losing influence in that region of the world where a significant number of the natural resources that they need to fuel their economy [exists].

The New York Times (3/17/11) presents a look at the Japanese government's lack of candor about the Fukushima nuclear disaster. At first we're given the impression that this is something cultural: "The less-than-straight talk is rooted in a conflict-averse culture that avoids direct references to unpleasantness." We don't have that problem, I guess. Then, we're told, Japanese media are to blame: Left-leaning news outlets have long been skeptical of nuclear power and of its backers, and the mutual mistrust led power companies and their regulators to tightly control the flow of information about nuclear operations so as not to inflame […]

We wanted to let you all know that Fletcha lost baby Milo in a terrible accident this weekend
Those of us on FB have set up a memorial fund to help offset their funeral costs (if you are so inclined) but we wanted anyone who knows her to know what happened and for everyone to keep them in your prayers in this terrible time.
I cannot fathom the loss of a baby and it brings me to tears just thinking of what they are dealing with right now.
His memorial fund is https://www.wepay.com/donations/milo-fletcher-memorial-fund

~~PAIF/SAIF Always Welcome~~
I have been alternating crying and praying for you (and your DH) all day Miss Fletcha.
I'm praying the Lord gives you rest right now, and a great sense of peace. I cannot begin to imagine what this is like for you, but I am happy that Milo is wrapped up in the arms of Jesus! We won't forget Baby Milo and his sweet smiles!
We love you and won't stop praying!

Nub Club Reviews
Showing 11 through 20 of 21 reviewsThe Nub Club 'Cameroon'
"Pretty much nothing more than a marketing gimmick"The Nub Club 'Connecticut'
I tend to agree wtih Bill. While these aren't the worst cigars I ever tasted, they are some of the worst tasting I've ever smoked that had enjoyed so much hype. I tried them, and now I'm finished with them. I'd much rather 'nub' a good "Fuente" or "Monte" ... and enjoy every second. Sorry NUB .... you just don't measure up.Rick in Missouri March 27, 2011
"Favorite Connecticut"The Nub Club 'Cameroon'
Nub Connecticut is loaded with flavor and is a highly satisfying smoke. Is at the top of my list when choosing a medium bodied cigar. Great stick!Tim in Wisconsin January 15, 2011
"Bill should try the Connecticut's"The Nub Club 'Cameroon'
the Cameroons don't stand up to the Connie's.....rick in jersey December 31, 2010
"Gimmick"The Nub Club 'Habano'
I read the hype on the nub cigars and couldn't wait to try them. Because I am a fan of cameroon, I bought a box of the nub 464T (Torpedos) Cameroon. I am 56 years of age and have been smoking cigars since I was 23 years of age. I have never smoked anything as nasty tasting as this cigar. They smoke HOT and have a very, very harsh bitter taste. Maybe they'll taste better after several months in my humidor. For now, I am writing this cigar off as just another gimmick to sell cigars. If they improve with time, I'll be back to write a different review.Bill in Oklahoma November 25, 2010
"Great Sampler"The Nub Club 'Connecticut'
This is one of the best samplers ever!!!!!! Nub Habano is the best!! Great smoke, Great flavor! nutty and creamy at the same time. I give it a 91 ratingRon in Toledo, Ohio November 17, 2010

I purchased the Nub Club 460 to give the cigar a test run. I found the Connecticut Nub -- the mildest of the group -- to be the one I enjoyed the most. Though the others were a little stronger flavored than I like, each was consistent in burn and the taste from light to snub. One piece of advise... use a punch on these. Because of the thickness, a cutter is not an efficient tool.Mike Finamore in Madison, Alabama October 9, 2010
"Great way to try the Nubs."The Nub Club 'Cameroon'
Pleasantly surprised by the quality of the smoke. Good from start to finish.Jim in Colorado August 28, 2010
"amazing"The Nub Club 'Habano'
I recently got a sampler of the nubs, and gave my friend to try the cameroon nub 460. Wow, he was blown away , the taste the smell, and how long it lasts. Lasts roughly an hour, pending how hard you smoke it. Def a wonderful cigar,and I love how compact it isstavros in naperville IL July 2, 2010
"Big Mouthed, Tasty Stogies"Previous
Good burn, rich cedar and peanutty aroma. Slightly searing to the nostrils...I luv it! Tons of smoke. There is nothing not to like about this sampler...oh, wait, they need to sell it more often. The sizes are a laughable and enjoyable smoking adventures. I like adventures! The torpedo feels like I'm smoking a 50 cal. shell! Smoke it too fast it'll feel like it, too! The 4X66 did make my jaw sort of cramp up in hour #2, b/c of size, but it was almost finished smoking any-who. Tasty potent treats. Seem full to me, not so "medium to full".
