Web server symbolic link?
I think I need to do this with a symbolic link, but I'm not sure that's right, and I'm not sure exactly how to do what I want.
I installed a mail server and used squirrelmail for the webmail client. I can access this via:
I then decided that I want to use roundcubemail, so I installed and configured that, but I cannot get to it via:
When I look around, I see that squirrelmail is installed in /usr/share/squirrelmail and roundcubemail is installed in /usr/share/roundcubemail.
When I look in /var/www I don't see any links that show me how the squirrelmail is allowed, so I don't have any clue how to allow the roundcubemail.
Webserver is Apache if that makes any difference.
Thanks for any help!

Hankering for some "preview"?

Introducing myself and my journal: I'm a feminist - Now what?
About Me:
A non-traditional student in my last year at Portland State University, I am a Women's Studies major working towards a position in society where I can play an active role as a feminist activist. I was previously a History major, but after becoming aware of my feminist side thanks to my favorite instructor, I embraced my feminism and awareness and realized that my calling is to educate others. It is my hope to teach Women's Studies at a college level in hopes of educating others for the betterment of our societal and political issues.
Wecome to the community!

Me: Hello! I thought you might like this photo of you. Them: Oh god it's so awful. I understand this, I really do. I used to be the same. But now it makes me sad. If I've sent you a picture of yourself, it's because I think you look good. And I'm probably a better judge than you. Not because I'm a photographer, but because I see you like everyone else sees you: I see the non-mirror-reversed version of you. And unless you're a model or a visual performer, you probably don't see this version very often. And it looks weird. ... Read More »

Aubagne, 16/10/2014 – Technology transfer from South to North doesn't happen every day. The bioclimatic greenhouses developed by GERES in Mongolia have proved their efficiency in high-altitude family farming. The technology could be put in place in the PACA region with support from crowdfunding.
Since 2009, the FAO has defined Climate-Smart Agriculture as agriculture that "sustainably increases productivity, resilience (adaptation), reduces/removes GHGs (mitigation), and enhances achievement of national food security and development goals".
It should be noted that the way in which these three pillars relate to one another remains vague.
Access to affordable and reliable energy services is crucial to the success of the post-2015 development framework. Shifting to more sustainable and efficient energy systems globally is also crucial for tackling climate change – the most serious threat to future poverty eradication.
On the 19th of October 2012, Groupe Initiatives, a collective of international professional cooperation and development aid associations, organized a study day to discuss "Carbon finance as a means of access to energy for the poor".
The proceedings of this study day are now available in both English and French!
How can we develop marketing approaches that successfully serve the poorest?
- Category: Where we stand
Once the engineers have done their job – by designing affordable devices and equipment that can provide life-changing benefits to the poorest families – it is then up to the "marketers" to do theirs, by organising distribution networks and establishing appropriate marketing strategies.

Happy New Year! I said it once, and I will say it again: 2014 is going to be the year of miracles! Watch and see what happens.
I started the year with a bang (make it a cold bang) by participating in the local Polar Bear Plunge. The northern Pacific Ocean is sure cold in January! It was refreshing and symbolic of the kind of year I know I will have.
I made a pledge to live life to the fullest. My friend's sweet 10-year-old daughter passed away last year from a 6 year battle with cancer. I plan to Live Like Bella all year and check off some things on my bucket list. Obviously, jumping into the freezing ocean in the peak of winter with hundreds of other insane people was one of them. For more information on Bella and her legacy, check out http://www.livelikebella.com . It will be worth your time!
It's time for some big announcements. Are you ready? I know I am!
The first big news is that in a few weeks, Contemplations will be available for sale at a local bookstore here in Bellingham. Village Books will be selling it and along with it, I will be speaking at an author event in the store. The date is TBD, and I will make sure to announce it once I know it for sure.
Last night, I finished re-vamping the book, making sure to get rid of any little bumps or hiccups that might have been missed the first time it got published. It definitely looks much crisper and I have included even more childhood pictures for you to laugh at.
Another big announcement is that I am currently working on not one, but two books! A follow-up to Contemplations is beginning to bubble up! The second book is still a big secret. I can't talk about it yet but I guarantee laughter, tears and joy from every chapter.
It will be a very busy January here in the Barr household but we are loving every moment of it. I constantly remind myself to stop and take it all in. Time goes by so fast, and I want to make sure that these moments are engraved in my memory.
Once again, thank you. Without your support and encouragement, I wouldn't have the courage to tell my tales. I am overwhelmed every time I get a note or message from a reader telling me how the stories have touched them or helped them get through something. It's cliché but I will say it anyway. If just one person takes anything from my words, the words that God put on my heart, then it is all worth it.

'Strong Rally' in Small-Caps May Emerge
Separately, Citigroup's Chronert also highlights several positives for small-cap stocks that investors may be ignoring. He notes that, in general, the one-, three-, and six-month forward returns from such declines have been positive. However, in this environment, anything is all but certain.
"Nearer term, we expect stabilization, although the intermediate-term picture will likely remain clouded by the increased urgency to address both spending and revenue issues," Chronert writes.

Yes, this is a definition for the game of basketball, and not an individual player. But no basketball conversation can last 20 minutes without this man's name being brought up.

The early games were played with soccer balls that had to be shit into peach baskets. It is a sport inwhich both men AND women can compete. There all are levels of playing. The Basketball Hall of Fame is located in Springfield, MA in tribute to where it all started. Most games are played with ten foot hoops. There are two teams, The object of the game is to have your team score more points(get the ball through the basket) than the other team. Both teams play offence and defence.

text: From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Mobile phone Mobile phone Several examples of non-flip mobile phones. A mobile phone or mobile (also called cellphone and handphone,[1] as well as cell phone, cellular phone, cell, wireless phone, cellular telephone, mobile telephone or cell telephone) is a long-range, electronic device used for mobile voice or data communication over a network of specialized base stations known as cell sites. In addition to the standard voice function of a mobile phone, telephone, current mobile phones may support many additional services, and accessories, such as SMS for text messaging, email, packet switching for access to the Internet, gaming, Bluetooth, infrared, camera with video recorder and MMS for sending and receiving photos and video, MP3 player, radio and GPS. Most current mobile phones connect to a cellular network of base stations (cell sites), which is in turn interconnected to the public switched telephone network (PSTN) (the exception is satellite phones). The International Telecommunication Union estimated that mobile cellular subscriptions worldwide would reach approximately 4.1 billion by the end of 2008[2] and mobile phones are starting to reach the bottom of the economic pyramid. History In 1908, U.S. Patent 887,357 for a wireless telephone was issued in to Nathan B. Stubblefield of Murray, Kentucky. He applied this patent to "cave radio" telephones and not directly to cellular telephony as the term is currently understood.[3] Cells for mobile phone base stations were invented in 1947 by Bell Labs engineers at AT&T and further Analog Motorola DynaTAC 8000X Advanced Mobile Phone System mobile phone as of 1983 1 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia developed by Bell Labs during the 1960s. Radiophones have a long and varied history going back to Reginald Fessenden's invention and shore-to-ship demonstration of radio telephony, through the Second World War with military use of radio telephony links and civil services in the 1950s, while hand-held cellular radio devices have been available since 1973. A patent for the first wireless phone as we know today was issued in US Patent Number 3,449,750 to George Sweigert of Euclid, Ohio on June 10, 1969. In 1945, the zero generation (0G) of mobile telephones was introduced. Like other technologies of the time, it involved a single, powerful base station covering a wide area, and each telephone would effectively monopolize a channel over that whole area while in use. The concepts of frequency reuse and handoff, as well as a number of other concepts that formed the basis of modern cell phone technology, are first described in U.S. Patent 4,152,647, issued May 1, 1979 to Charles A. Gladden and Martin H. Parelman, both of Las Vegas, Nevada and assigned by them to the United States Government. This is the first embodiment of all the concepts that formed the basis of the next major step in mobile telephony, the Analog cellular telephone. Concepts covered in this patent (cited in at least 34 other patents) also were later extended to several satellite communication systems. Later updating of the cellular system to a digital system credits this patent. Martin Cooper, a Motorola researcher and executive is widely considered to be the inventor of the first practical mobile phone for hand-held use in a non-vehicle setting. Cooper is the inventor named on "Radio telephone system" filed on October 17, 1973 with the US Patent Office and later issued as US Patent 3,906,166.[4] Using a modern, if somewhat heavy portable handset, Cooper made the first call on a hand-held mobile phone on April 3, 1973 to a rival, Dr. Joel S. Engel of Bell Labs.[5] The first commercial citywide cellular network was launched in Japan by NTT in 1979. Fully automatic cellular networks were first introduced in the early to mid 1980s (the 1G generation). The Nordic Mobile Telephone (NMT) system went online in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden in 1981.[6] In 1983, Motorola DynaTAC was the first approved mobile phone by FCC in the United States. In 1984, Bell Labs developed modern Mobile phone Personal Handy-phone System mobiles and modems used in Japan around 1997-2003 commercial cellular technology (based, to a large extent, on the Gladden, Parelman Patent), which employed multiple, centrally controlled base stations (cell sites), each providing service to a small area (a cell). The cell sites would be set up such that cells partially overlapped. In a cellular system, a signal between a base station (cell site) and a terminal (phone) only need be strong enough to reach between the two, so the same channel can be used simultaneously for separate conversations in different cells. Cellular systems required several leaps of technology, including handover, which allowed a conversation to continue as a mobile phone traveled from cell to cell. This system included variable transmission power in both the base stations and the telephones (controlled by the base stations), which allowed range and cell size to vary. As the system expanded and neared capacity, the ability to reduce transmission power allowed new cells to be added, resulting in more, smaller cells and thus more capacity. The evidence of this growth can still be seen in the many older, tall cell site towers with no antennae on the upper parts of their towers. These sites originally created large cells, and so had their antennae mounted atop high towers; the towers were designed so that as the system expanded—and cell sizes shrank—the antennae could be lowered on their original masts to reduce range. The first "modern" network technology on digital 2G (second generation) cellular technology was launched by Radiolinja (now part of Elisa Group) in 1991 in Finland on the GSM standard which also marked the introduction of competition in mobile telecoms when Radiolinja challenged incumbent 2 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Mobile phone A Nokia phone with box. A 1991 GSM mobile phone Telecom Finland (now part of TeliaSonera) who ran a 1G NMT network. The first data services appeared on mobile phones starting with person-to-person SMS text messaging in Finland in 1993. First trial payments using a mobile phone to pay for a Coca Cola vending machine were set in Finland in 1998. The first commercial payments were mobile parking trialled in Sweden but first commercially launched in Norway in 1999. The first commercial payment system to mimic banks and credit cards was launched in the Philippines in 1999 simultaneously by mobile operators Globe and Smart. The first content sold to mobile phones was the ringing tone, first launched in 1998 in Finland. The first full internet service on mobile phones was i-Mode introduced by NTT DoCoMo in Japan in 1999. In 2001 the first commercial launch of 3G (Third Generation) was again in Japan by NTT DoCoMo on the WCDMA standard.[7] Until the early 1990s, following introduction of the Motorola MicroTAC, most mobile phones were too large to be carried in a jacket pocket, so they were typically installed in vehicles as car phones. With the miniaturization of digital components and the development of more sophisticated batteries, mobile phones have become smaller and lighter. A phone with touchscreen feature. A printed circuit board inside a mobile phone There are several categories of mobile phones, from basic phones to feature phones such as musicphones and cameraphones, to Handsets 3 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia smartphones. The first smartphone was the Nokia 9000 Communicator in 1996 which incorporated PDA functionality to the basic mobile phone at the time. As miniaturisation and increased processing power of microchips has enabled ever more features to be added to phones, the concept of the smartphone has evolved, and what was a high-end smartphone five years ago, is a standard phone today. Several phone series have been introduced to address a given market segment, such as the RIM BlackBerry focusing on enterprise/corporate customer email needs; the SonyEricsson Walkman series of musicphones and Cybershot series of cameraphones; the Nokia N-Series of multimedia phones; and the Apple iPhone which provides full-featured web access and multimedia capabilities. Mobile phone Mobile phone subscribers per 100 inhabitants 1997-2007 average of messaging use is 2.6 SMS sent per day per person across the whole mobile phone subscriber base. (source Informa 2007). The first SMS text message was sent from a computer to a mobile phone in 1992 in the UK, while the first person-to-person SMS from phone to phone was sent in Finland in 1993. The other non-SMS data services used by mobile phones were worth 31 Billion dollars in 2007, and were led by mobile music, downloadable logos and pictures, gaming, gambling, adult entertainment and advertising (source: Informa 2007). The first downloadable mobile content was sold to a mobile phone in Finland in 1998, when Radiolinja (now Elisa) introduced the downloadable ringing tone service. In 1999 Japanese mobile operator NTT DoCoMo introduced its mobile internet service, i-Mode, which today is the world's largest mobile internet service and roughly the same size as Google in annual revenues. The first mobile news service, delivered via SMS, was launched in Finland in 2000. Mobile news services are expanding with many organisations providing "on-demand" news services by SMS. Some also provide "instant" news pushed out by SMS. Mobile telephony also facilitates activism and public journalism being explored by Reuters and Yahoo![9] and small independent news companies such as Jasmine News in Sri Lanka. Companies like Monster.com are starting to offer mobile services such as job search and career advice. Consumer applications Features Mobile phones often have features beyond sending text messages and making voice calls, including call registers, GPS navigation, music (MP3) and video (MP4) playback, RDS radio receiver, alarms, memo and document recording, personal organiser and personal digital assistant functions, ability to watch streaming video or download video for later viewing, video calling, built-in cameras (3.2+ Mpx) and camcorders (video recording), with autofocus and flash, ringtones, games, PTT, memory card reader (SD), USB (2.0), infrared, Bluetooth (2.0) and WiFi connectivity, instant messaging, Internet e-mail and browsing and serving as a wireless modem for a PC, and soon will also serve as a console of sorts to online games and other high quality games. Some phones include a touchscreen. The largest categories of mobile services are music, picture downloads, videogaming, adult entertainment, gambling, video/TV. Nokia and the University of Cambridge are showing off a bendable cell phone called Morph.[8] Applications The most commonly used data application on mobile phones is SMS text messaging, with 74% of all mobile phone users as active users (over 2.4 billion out of 3.3 billion total subscribers at the end of 2007). SMS text messaging was worth over 100 billion dollars in annual revenues in 2007 and the worldwide 4 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia are on the rise and include everything from information guides on local activities and events to mobile coupons and discount offers one can use to save money on purchases. Even tools for creating websites for mobile phones are increasingly becoming available. Mobile payments were first trialled in Finland in 1998 when two Coca-Cola vending machines in Espoo were enabled to work with SMS payments. Eventually the idea spread and in 1999 the Philippines launched the first commercial mobile payments systems, on the mobile operators Globe and Smart. Today mobile payments ranging from mobile banking to mobile credit cards to mobile commerce are very widely used in Asia and Africa, and in selected European markets. For example in the Philippines it is not unusual to have one's entire paycheck paid to the mobile account. In Kenya the limit of money transfers from one mobile banking account to another is one million US dollars. In India paying utility bills with mobile gains a 5% discount. In Estonia the government found criminals collecting cash parking fees, so the government declared that only mobile payments via SMS were valid for parking and today all parking fees in Estonia are handled via mobile and the crime involved in the activity has vanished. Mobile Applications are developed using the Six M's (previously Five M's) service-development theory created by the author Tomi Ahonen with Joe Barrett of Nokia and Paul Golding of Motorola. The Six M's are Movement (location), Moment (time), Me (personalization), Multi-user (community), Money (payments) and Machines (automation). The Six M's / Five M's theory is widely referenced in the telecoms applications literature and used by most major industry players. The first book to discuss the theory was Services for UMTS by Ahonen & Barrett in 2002. Mobile phone Mobile phone charging service in Uganda On 17 February 2009, the GSM Association announced[10] that they had agreed on a standard charger for mobile phones. The standard connector to be adopted by 17 manufacturers including Nokia, Motorola and Samsung is to be the micro-USB connector (several media reports erroneously reported this as the mini-USB). The new chargers will be much more efficient than existing chargers. Having a standard charger for all phones, means that manufacturers will no longer have to supply a charger with every new phone. Formerly, the most common form of mobile phone batteries were nickel metal-hydride, as they have a low size and weight. Lithium-Ion batteries are sometimes used, as they are lighter and do not have the voltage depression that nickel metal-hydride batteries do. Many mobile phone manufacturers have now switched to using lithium-Polymer batteries as opposed to the older Lithium-Ion, the main advantages of this being even lower weight and the possibility to make the battery a shape other than strict cuboid. Mobile phone manufacturers have been experimenting with alternative power sources, including solar cells. Power supply Mobile phones generally obtain power from batteries, which can be recharged from a USB port, from portable batteries, from mains power or a cigarette lighter socket in a car using an adapter (often called battery charger or wall wart) or from a solar panel or a dynamo (that can also use a USB port to plug the phone). SIM card In addition to the battery, GSM mobile phones require a small microchip, called a Subscriber Identity Module or SIM Card, to function. Approximately the size of a small postage stamp, the SIM Card is usually placed underneath the battery in the rear of the unit, and (when properly activated) stores the phone's configuration data, and information about the phone itself, such as 5 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Mobile phone $500. You can get one for approximately $200, depending on the carrier. The difference is paid by the customer in the form of a monthly bill. If the carrier did not use a MSL, then they may lose the $300–$400 difference that is paid in the monthly bill, since some customers would cancel their service and take the phone to another carrier. The MSL applies to the SIM only so once the contract has been completed the MSL still applies to the SIM. The phone however, is also initially locked by the manufacturer into the Service Providers MSL. This lock may be disabled so that the phone can use other Service Providers SIM cards. Most phones purchased outside the US are unlocked phones because there are numerous Service Providers in close proximity to one another or have overlapping coverage. The cost to unlock a phone varies but is usually very cheap and is sometimes provided by independent phone vendors. Having an unlocked phone is extremely useful for travelers due to the high cost of using the MSL Service Providers access when outside the normal coverage areas. It can cost sometimes up to 10 times as much to use a locked phone overseas as in the normal service area, even with discounted rates. TMobile will provide a SIM unlock code to account holders in good standing after 90 days according to their FAQ. For example, in Jamaica, an AT&T subscriber might pay in excess of US$1.65 per minute for discounted international service while a B-Mobile (Jamaican) customer would pay US$0.20 per minute for the same international service. Some Service Providers focus sales on international sales while others focus on regional sales. For example, the same B-Mobile customer might pay more for local calls but less for international calls than a subscriber to the Jamaican national phone C&W (Cable & Wireless) company. These rate differences are mainly due to currency variations because SIM purchases are made in the local currency. In the US, this type of service competition does not exist because some of the major Service Providers do not offer Pay-As-You-Go services. [Needs Pay-AsYou-Go references, rumored T-Mobile,Verizon provide one, AT&T does not as of 12/ 2008] Typical mobile phone SIM card which calling plan the subscriber is using. When the subscriber removes the SIM Card, it can be re-inserted into another phone and used as normal. Each SIM Card is activated by use of a unique numerical identifier; once activated, the identifier is locked down and the card is permanently locked in to the activating network. For this reason, most retailers refuse to accept the return of an activated SIM Card. Those cell phones that do not use a SIM Card have the data programmed in to their memory. This data is accessed by using a special digit sequence to access the "NAM" as in "Name" or number programming menu. From here, one can add information such as a new number for your phone, new Service Provider numbers, new emergency numbers, change their Authentication Key or A-Key code, and update their Preferred Roaming List or PRL. However, to prevent someone from accidentally disabling their phone or removing it from the network, the Service Provider puts a lock on this data called a Master Subsidiary Lock or MSL. The MSL also ensures that the Service Provider gets payment for the phone that was purchased or "leased". For example, the Motorola RAZR V9C costs upwards of CAD Market 6 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Mobile phone The mobile phone is often called the Fourth Screen (if counting cinema, TV and PC screens as the first three) or Third Screen (counting only TV and PC screens). It is also called the Seventh of the Mass Media (with Print, Recordings, Cinema, Radio, TV and Internet the first six). Most early content for mobile tended to be copies of legacy media, such as the banner advertisement or the TV news highlight video clip. Recently unique content for mobile has been emerging, from the ringing tones and ringback tones in music to "mobisodes," video content that has been produced exclusively for mobile phones. The advent of media on the mobile phone has also produced the opportunity to identify and track Alpha Users or Hubs, the most influential members of any social community. AMF Ventures measured in 2007 the relative accuracy of three mass media, and found that audience measures on mobile were nine times more accurate than on the internet and 90 times more accurate than on TV. Mobile phone manufacturers' market share in Q3/2008 In Q3/2008, Nokia was the world's largest manufacturer of mobile phones, with a global device market share of 39.4%, followed by Samsung (17.3%), Sony Ericsson (8.6%), Motorola (8.5%) and LG Electronics (7.7%). These manufacturers accounted for over 80% of all mobile phones sold at that time.[11] Other manufacturers include Apple Inc., Audiovox (now UTStarcom), Benefon, BenQSiemens, CECT, High Tech Computer Corporation (HTC), Fujitsu, Kyocera, Mitsubishi Electric, NEC, Neonode, Panasonic, Palm, Matsushita, Pantech Wireless Inc., Philips, Qualcomm Inc., Research in Motion Ltd. (RIM), Sagem, Sanyo, Sharp, Siemens, Sendo, Sierra Wireless, SK Teletech, T&A Alcatel, Huawei, Trium and Toshiba. There are also specialist communication systems related to (but distinct from) mobile phones. Terminology Related non-mobile-phone systems Usage The cell-phone novel is the first literary genre to emerge from the cellular age via text messaging to a website that collects the novels as a whole.[13] In virtual online computer games, readers can put themselves into first person in the story. Cell phone novels create a personal space for each individual reader. Paul Levinson, in Information on the Move (2004), says "...nowadays, a writer can write just about as easily, anywhere, as a reader can read" and they are "not only personal but portable". Media The mobile phone became a mass media channel in 1998 when the first ringing tones were sold to mobile phones by Radiolinja in Finland. Soon other media content appeared such as news, videogames, jokes, horoscopes, TV content and advertising. In 2006 the total value of mobile phone paid media content exceeded internet paid media content and was worth 31 Billion dollars (source Informa 2007). The value of music on phones was worth 9.3 Billion dollars in 2007 and gaming was worth over 5 billion dollars in 2007 (source Netsize Guide 2008 [12]). Privacy Cell phones have numerous privacy issues associated with them, and are regularly used by governments to perform surveillance. Law enforcement and intelligence services in the U.K. and the United States possess technology to remotely activate the microphones in cell phones in order to listen to conversations that take place nearby the person who holds the phone.[14][15] 7 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Mobile phones are also commonly used to collect location data. The geographical location of a mobile phone can be determined easily (whether it is being used or not), using a technique known multilateration to calculate the differences in time for a signal to travel from the cell phone to each of several cell towers near the owner of the phone.

Health risks Because mobile phones emit electromagnetic radiation, concerns have been raised about cancer risks that may pose when used for long periods of time.[18] This radiation is nonionizing, but localized heating can occur. The current consensus view of the scientific and medical communities is that health effects are very unlikely to be caused by cellular phones or their base stations.[19][20][21] Cellular phones became widely available only relatively recently, while tumors can take decades to develop. For this reason, some health authorities have urged that the precautionary principle be observed, recommending that use and proximity to the head be minimized, especially by children.[22][23] Controversial raw materials Mobile phones and other electronic products have high quality capacitors in them, which contain Tantalum. A major source of Tantalum is the coltan ore from some illegal mines in the Democratic Republic of Congo operated by rebel groups to get money to fund their civil war.[24] A typical mobile phone has 40 milligrams of Tantalum. A conflict-free source of Tantalum are mines at Wodgina in the Pilbara region near Perth, Australia.[25] See also Flexible keyboard Mobile telephony Mobile telecommunications Harvard sentences List of countries by number of mobile phones in use • Mobile internet device (MID) • Mobile Marketing Association • ReCellular Inc. • • • • • 8 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Mobile phone http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/ • Ahonen, Kasper and Melkko, 3G 4738219.stm.

text: Housemates The whole thing started with an ad online. I was looking for a place to live, and I found a woman with a place that she couldn't afford to rent by herself. I took a look at the place, and it was pretty nice. Full facilities, good neighborhood, the whole deal. She would have preferred a female housemate, and I'm usually leery about moving in with strangers, so it wasn't exactly an ideal situation for either of us, but she was coming down to the wire on funds, and I really needed a place to lay down roots. We swallowed our objections and shook hands, and I settled in. Cohabitation was awkward for the first few weeks, but I coped by avoiding contact with my new housemate as much as possible, in an effort to solve the problem by ignoring it. I'm a freelance software engineer with a few corporate contracts in the works, and I prefer to work from home. I also do some game coding on the side, my attempt to break into an industry I actually enjoy, so I work

I liked these better the first night--we had some leftovers tonight and I really didn't like it warmed up again. Best when first cooked . . . Too salty and soyish tasting the second time I guess. I'd put less tamari in. I prefer green beans amandine to this recipe, but it's not too bad. Thanks for the recipe.
Didn't have tamari, so used soy sauce. It turned out very well, but next time I'll get tamari.

Gallery: Artists use waterfalls to bend light to their will
Photography can sometimes feel stale, even when the images are beautifully captured. That's the price the world paid the day everyone's phone got a decent camera app. Nowadays, it takes a little more ingenuity to create a photograph that'll make people stop and stare.
Which is exactly what these images taken by From The Lenz photographers Sean Lenz and Kristoffer Abildgaard do. Though the images are still, they seem to evoke the rushing energy of waterfalls in a transfixing, beautiful way.
Of course, there's no way to actually make waterfalls run in glowing rainbow ribbons. To accomplish their brilliant effect, Lenz and Abildgaard utilized long-exposure photography and a handful of glow sticks. The long-exposure times, which were adjusted to capture each image perfectly, show the entire path of the submerged glow sticks as bright, colorful ribbons. A truly fantastical sight.

Brotherly Love
By Richard Morgan
Men adored Howe. He was so wonderfully average -- in height, weight, voice, manner. And boyish, cherubic almost to the point of porcelain. Like any vaudevillian, he knew how to breeze through towns and leave them wanting more. He wrote thank-you notes after sex. Even for the unbending straight guys in the mix, Howe would embrace his 'Platonism' and suggest they read Marcel Proust's Remembrance of Things Past or take in a theater show or get tickets to see the pianist Vladimir Horowitz. With some, he would buy them dress shirts. And they would send him neckties (although none more expensive than 30 cents).
He once picked up a young, illiterate hitchhiker, Cecil Starling, who was wandering the country after his mother died. Starling had been picking and canning fruit, doing odd jobs, so Howe helped him out by writing a letter of recommendation to a friend in Ohio. That was Howe's modus operandi: to win over the devotion of pretty young vulnerable insecure men -- sometimes to capitalize on that, sexually, but often just to bask in their idolatry of him. Howe was writing to his friend because Starling had recently written from Twin Falls, Idaho, with only $3 in hand, asking for $5.
There was always love, even if it flirted with love-hate. 'You do something out-of-the-way to me,' a longtime close friend, Albert Galloway, wrote in April 1941. 'Like Tim to Scrooge, I soften. It's the contrast between big-business Howe -- banging his heels down and striding resolutely into office, bar, and lobby -- and little-boy Stew, not half so overpowering and a damned sight more affecting.' Another friend put it more directly in February 1942: 'You're a b____ , but I love you for it.'
There was a sense for Howe, shared among his closest friends, that they were serving as a kind of saving grace in the lives of their sexual conquests. A friend gossips about a mutual buddy's latest boy toy: 'I think the boy is Jewish or a Pole; this probably gives Jim the feeling that he is caring for a refugee of some sort. It's very amusing.' Howe, Syrett notes in his recent book The Company He Keeps: A History of White College Fraternities, 'represented a particularly palatable version of homosexuality to young men who might have been concerned that embracing their homosexual inclinations would mean abandoning the parts of their lives that they held dear and that helped them to define themselves as normal American men.'
Reached at her home in Chicago, Howe's niece Elizabeth, 59, recalls, 'I never saw him not in a suit. Blue suits, gray suits, striped ties -- that was about it.' She remembers him as awkward. 'He'd stand with his hands behind his back, rocking on his heels, and he'd ask me and my sister, Jean, things like 'So, what are your hobbies?' ' she says. 'Even as a child, I knew he was uncomfortable. He was removed. He was there because he was expected; this was his family. He always did what he thought was the right thing, all the right things, go through all the right motions.' She remembers him pulling up in his steel-blue Buick and giving her thoughtful but odd gifts: the Encyclopedia Britannica or a six-bowl set of antique Delft china. Once, he tried hosting Thanksgiving dinner himself: a formal affair at Chicago's famed Drake Hotel, with all the familial whimsy of a hospital-corners bed tucked in tight by maids. He derided Elizabeth's beloved Beatles as 'shaggy.' Without a wife or children, Howe sidestepped the cultural revolution of suburbia and extended his 1930s model of manhood well into the Nixon era -- all the while loosening his collar (and his belt) only for a select few.
Part of what's remarkable here is how candid Howe and his pen pals are with each other (in only one letter, the command destroy! is scrawled along the bottom, even though the note is rather vanilla). One friend writes a self-admitted drunken letter. Another sends a kind of 1946 version of a booty text: a telegram that contains nothing other than the name Norm Saksvige along with an address. They call what they do 'prowling' and 'gallivanting.' And they often share a military fetish -- so much so that many of them either join the military after college or pick up enlisted soldiers or ROTCs (Howe picked up two at once and whisked them to the Met). 'Well, Stew, I must do some boning on these texts. I wish it were on human flesh instead,' Howard Heath wrote from his Army bed in March 1942. 'Wish you could peek in on the gorgeous array of baskets surrounding me as I lie on my bunk''
In all their alienation, Howe was a kind of national guidance counselor for these college kids. A letter where Chuck Flanders, a Duke student, is weighing a transfer to Tulane University lays out Howe's importance: 'You don't know what a life you gave me by coming down last week-end. It's so nice to know that someone like you gives a damn for someone like me. You don't know how much our friendship means to me Stewart. I wouldn't want anything to come between it for the world.' One wrote that the State Department should consider installing Howe as 'Ambassador of Basic Relations and Good Neighborly Feelings.'
Playing with the kind of overwrought emotion so rife in college students could have its hazards. 'Isn't it hell, Stew, to be romance to the wealthy and unsophisticated?' wrote a colleague who led a similar man-in-every-frat-house life. 'He fumbled around a lot,' says Syrett. 'It was a fumbling time. When he fell, he fell hard. You have to realize he's not, in modern language, a 'player.' It's not one fuck and then it's over. He stays. He lingers. He writes to them. And they write back.'
Some saw it as creepy, though. The lingering. Like David Wooderson, Matthew McConaughey's iconic character from Dazed and Confused. Handsome and even charming, sure. But a little too pervy. A little too horny. A little too predatory. What kind of 30-something or 40-something or 50-something devotes his life to college men?

UI Bystander Intervention Program
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) -- The University of Iowa plans to provide bystander intervention training at fraternities and sororities to help combat sexual assaults.
Tom Rocklin is vice president for student life and he told the Iowa City Press-Citizen (http://icp-c.com/1v8WZNn ) that the entire UI Greek community has agreed to take the annual training, which begins in fall. That's about 3,000 students.
Rocklin says the training isn't about stopping a rape in progress, but it is aimed at "getting someone out of a situation that has a lot of risk to it."
The university is developing a similar program for bar workers.

Spin the Agencies of Record
"Everything in life is luck." – Donald Trump
We assume The Donald didn't mean overcoming multiple bankruptcies to become a reality TV star, fake political candidate, Obama Birther troll, and walking Hair Club for Men promo. He must have meant the kind of recreational gambling that takes place at Foxwoods Casino, which just named 451 Marketing its PR AOR.
Foxwoods' executive director of branding and marketing was "extremely impressed with the 451 Marketing team's energy and innovation in their approach to public relations", and 451 founding partner AJ Gerritson called the casino "an iconic brand and a true New England institution."
The firm's goal is to "elevate the resort's profile", which should be easy as it's Anything but Ordinary(TM).
Porter Novelli has been named AOR for Hackensack, New Jersey's John Theurer Cancer Center. No snark on this one.
