This dress is extremely edgy but still very feminine. It's dressy but with the right accessories it can be dressed down. It fits true to size and is the standard bebe length. I didn't expect to fall for this dress. The sleeves are very comfortable and didn't bother my skin. It emphasizes an hourglass shape, I'm in love! Got to try it on in store and it looks expensive. It's completely different without trying to hard. Can't wait to wear it out! I got my usual XS i'm 125 5'4-5'5 39D-26-39. It's very fitted with a thick material weight....high end mesh sleeves. Great contrast

Love it!
The lines on this dress are really slimming. Classic Bebe - Hugs all the right places.
I ordered a size Small...-1 Star bc it is a little bit long for me. It comes up an inch or so above my knee. (I am only 5 Ft. though)

Awesome dress!!
This is a very nice sexy dress. The fabric is heavy and the dress is lined. The dress makes the waist look smaller. I highly recommend this dress. I'm 5'3 and the dress is above knee. Dress is true to size. Very elegant and sexy!

So, with the DW game coming closer I was wondering...
Initially they set the Marine Bolter Damage at 2d10 X, Pen 5
Than in Rogue Trader they upped the Heavy Bolter (akin to the Marine Bolter in DH) to 2d10+2 X, Pen 5
Now with Ascension they increased the damage of the Bolter (the Executor Pistol) to 2d10+4 X, Pen 5
I doubt they will stay at 2d10 X, Pen 5 because they wouldn't be able to reasonably damage Chaos Space Marines.
Say the Chaos Space marine has a TB 8 and 8 AP (Armour in Purge the Unclean is supposed to be Artificer Armour)
2d10 averages 11 + a Pen of 5 would equal zero damage on average.
2d10+2 would average at 2 damage a hit and 2d10+4 would average at 4 damage...
How many wounds do marines have....20 to 30?
You thoughts?

- WILLITS CITY COUNCIL AGENDA for February 13, 2013
A comprehensive multi-week exercise culminated Tuesday with the Willits City Council setting its priorities for the next two years.
The top two goals are the Baechtel Road-Railroad Avenue connection, and establishing priorities for street paving, including the use of the city's ½-cent sales tax funds. Each member of the council considered the Baechtel Road extension as either a top or a near-top priority.
The process began with the selection of a facilitator, who interviewed each councilmember and key members of the city staff in the weeks leading up to the April 2 goal-setting meeting. Councilmembers were asked to submit individual lists of their top seven priorities to the facilitator.
Each councilmember was given 40 points to distribute among the 21 goals. The maximum points each person could allocate for any goal was four. The top vote-getters were declared "major city goals;" the second tier was deemed "other important goals" and the lowest group was considered "address as resources permit."
City staff is now tasked with using these goals to initiate the budget process and assure the city's scant resources are allocated appropriately to address the council's highest priorities.
Public comment in this phase of the process was minimal, in part due to the compressed time frame of the current budget cycle. Interim City Manager Adrienne Moore assured the public there would be plenty of future opportunities to provide input concerning priorities during the development of this year's budget.
The next vote-getter, setting street paving priorities, was considered a "high" or "very high" priority by Mayor Holly Madrigal, Councilman Bruce Burton and Councilman Larry Stranske. It was considered a "medium" priority to Councilman Ron Orenstein and Councilwoman Madge Strong.
Replacement of the Main Street waterline north from Commercial Street to Casteel Lane was ranked as the council's third most important priority. Burton and Stranske considered this "important" or "very important"; the other three considered it a "medium" priority.
Development of a water infrastructure master plan was ranked fourth. Strong and Stranske considered this "important" or "very important"; the other three considered it of "medium" importance.
The numerical score for the following topics was nearly identical.
Cross-certification of utility personnel was considered of "very high" importance only by Stranske. Improved traffic circulation west of Main Street was a "high" or "very high" priority for Madrigal, Burton and Strong, but received zero priority from Stranske. Planning for a post-bypass Main Street was a "high" or "very high" priority for Madrigal and Burton; it received zero priority from Stranske. A sewer infrastructure master plan was considered a "very high" priority for Stranske and a "low" priority by Burton.
The "medium" priority list included job retention, creation and preservation; preservation of industrial-zoned property; general fund reserve policy; assessment of the city's organization; and development of a long-term water supply.
"Lower" priority items included improvement in service delivery; bicycle and pedestrian improvements; solar energy investments; emergency preparedness; Camp Lane paving and the feasibility of a "strong mayor" form of government.

I am soooooo addicted to this song
It's so haunting and mystical

Natalia Ambruglia? Not only is that so 1995, but that's so gay.
"Rarely do we find men who willingly engage in hard solid thinking. There is an almost universal quest for easy answers and half-baked solutions. Nothing pains some people more than having to think.'' - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Sorry, Lostlover, I must have missed the memo explaining that listening to music from the 90s and liking "gay" music was an issue around here. Here's something brand new that I'm enjoying, though . Probably still kind of gay, though...
Alex Greenwald "I Like Ten Men"
I find this fucking hilarious. lol
I am addicted to this song right now.
Pet Shops Boys - Before
..There's Things I Haven't Told You.. I Go Out Late At Night..
And If I Was To Tell You.. You'd See My Different Side..
Velvet Revolvers' Contraband CD
.......and loudly!
I don't like any of his original tunes, but Michael Buble's voice is like sex. I heard him sing live at last year's Christmas Tree lighting at Rockefeller Center. Man oh man...
So make your thighs like butter, easy to spread...and we can make sandwiches.
I was just listening to this.
Hi, all.
Hello, Keelandson .

Marc Almond and the Mambas featuring Foetus:
Followed, by the time I found and posted the above, by
Young Love (last time I buy a whole album just because the singer is hot and the video gave me wood).
* Question the Dominant Paradigm *
I just finished transferring a vinyl LP onto my hard drive, so right now, I'm not hearing anything.
But for some reason, this song is playing in my head. And no - it's not at all related to the LP.
Gawd, I just made the mistake of pulling up a Barney Youtube video... Now it's stuck in my head.
Regrets are for people who stop on the ground.
I'm heading for the stars.
Not right now, but an hour ago I was listening to a concert that was recorded this afternoon at the Perth Concert Hall with the Berlin Philharmonic. They've just begun their tour of Australia and this was their first concert. ABC Classic FM is also playing a series of interviews with some of the musicians - very interesting!
You Know I'm No Good by Amy Winehouse
Turn it up!!!!
Listening to that playlist I posted before. The song write now is a remix of...
A sort of "Oldie but goodie".
U2's "Zoo Station".
I think "Achtung, Baby" is such an AMAZING album, from both a song-writing and production value perspective. It's my favorite U2 album by far....
And the lyrics: "Time is a train, makes the future the past. Leaves you standing at the station....your face pressed up against the glass..."
Very.... Zen.

the Cadillac three win 'best new band' at classic rock awards
+ 3 headline UK shows scheduled for December
+ New single 'Get Your Buzz On' set for release on December 1st on Spinefarm Records
The Cadillac Three – described as "blending distorted lap-steel with Pantera riffs & outlaw song-writing" – have picked up the Award for 'Best New Band' at this year's Classic Rock Roll Of Honour Awards, held last night at The Avalon, Hollywood, USA, rather than its usual stamping ground of The Roundhouse, London, in celebration of its tenth anniversary.
The Cadillac Three – Jaren Johnston (guitar / vocals), Kelby Ray (lap steel / bass) & Neil Mason (drums) – picked up the Award in person then went on to play the after-show event, winning through in a strong category voted for by the Classic Rock readers themselves; other nominees included Royal Blood, Deaf Havana & Blues Pills, making this a huge triumph for the Nashville trio who have visited UK shores just three times thus far, including two sold-out London shows.
Says Neil Mason: "What an honour to be three long-haired dudes from Nashville, Tennessee, and to be recognised half way around the world for the noise we make. We love it over in the UK! Thank you!!!"
"We are so honoured to be Classic Rock's best new artist!!" continues Jaren Johnston. "The UK has become our home away from home, and we can't wait to be back there to celebrate with all the fans in December!! Thank you!!"
The December dates are as follows:-
7 – Manchester, Deaf Institute
8 – Birmingham, Oobleck
9 – London, Garage
Guesting on all 3 headline dates will be Bristol rock 'n' rollers Tax The Heat, with full-blooded rockers Sons Of Icarus joining the bill in London only.
Tickets are available here: http://www.kililive.com/artists/the-cadillac-three
In addition, TC3 are confirmed to play Planet Rockstock '14 on December 6th; this three-day festival takes place from December 5 - 7 at Park Dean Holiday Park, Trecco Bay, Porthcawl, Wales.
Tickets for Planet Rockstock are available here: www.planetrock.com/events/planet-rock-live/planet-rockstock-2014
In support of the UK dates, a new single, 'Get Your Buzz On', will be released via Spinefarm Records on December 1st; the track is taken from the band's debut album, 'Tennessee Mojo', also available on Spinefarm.

Flights to Glasgow take you to a city reborn, where Victorian architecture sits alongside sleek modish style.
Things to do
After flights to Glasgow visitors can lose themselves inside the red sandstone Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum, a recently refurbished Victorian landmark. Inside, the Glasgow Tea Rooms exhibition shows off four 1920s interior designs of Glasgow's famous son Charles Rennie Mackintosh, with clean Art Deco-type lines.
At historic market the Barras, join locals wandering through a thousand stalls offering everything from photographs to Celtic football shirts. Humorous banter fills the air as you search for goodies from your Glasgow city break.
In the former financial district, glorious Victorian buildings loom over Merchant City's fashionable restaurants. On your Glasgow holiday, feast on freshly caught seafood like oysters and pan-friend scallops, or an upmarket twist on Scotland's traditional haggis and neeps.
Taste fine whiskies in Oran Mor bar, a former parish church in the heart of Glasgow's bohemian West End. Live music and theatre under the ornate painted ceiling add cultural flavour, at this popular gathering spot of Glasgow's literari.
When to go
KLM has frequent flights to Glasgow. Buy airline tickets to enjoy Glasgow's top events like the pipers' gathering for August's World Pipe band Championships, and Hogmanay celebrations to bring in the New Year.

The end of cash tolls on the Golden Gate Bridge hit hard for toll-takers Thursday when they received pink slips telling them their services will no longer be needed later this month.
By the morning commute on March 27, a Wednesday, all-electronic tolling will be in place, Golden Gate Bridge district officials announced. Nine full-time toll-takers will be out of jobs, along with 29 temporary, part-time hires.
"I grew up here," said toll-taker Jacquie Dean, 43, as she stood near the toll booths she has worked at for almost 19 years. "For this to happen to myself and my co-workers is a great disappointment. I have had customers in the last couple of weeks break down and cry in the lanes, they really didn't think this was going to happen. It's the end of an era."
The toll-takers have been part of bridge operations since it opened in 1937, but financial pressures and technology have conspired to eliminate the positions.
Eliminating toll-takers will save roughly $16 million over eight years in salaries and benefits. A toll-taker's base annual salary starts at $48,672 and tops out at $54,080. It is costing the bridge district $3.2 million to get the all-electronic system up and running.
The move, among other steps, will help bail the district out of a $66 million budget shortfall over the next five years.
"We will be going live with all-electronic tolling at the Golden Gate Bridge; it is a big milestone for us," said Mary Currie, bridge district spokeswoman.
Before that occurs other steps will take place. The speed limit at the toll plaza will be raised from 5 mph to 25 mph and the toll booths will be wrapped in material to cover windows so drivers will be less inclined to stop. Lane No. 2 at the Toll Plaza will be converted to a $3 toll carpool lane. Carpool hours are from 5 to 9 a.m. and 4 to 6 p.m. on weekdays. Three people in a vehicle qualify as a carpool.

— Alan Dep (@adep) March 7, 2013
For now, the toll booth structures will remain in place, in large part because they house the equipment, including cameras, that will allow the bridge to convert to all-electronic tolls.
Bridge officials are working to get the word out to customers about the change and have started a campaign, "Drive on Through to the Other Side," designed to keep people moving through the Toll Plaza.
The district has established a website — www.goldengate.org/tolls — to provide information to drivers.
Thirty percent of drivers who cross the span now pay a $6 cash toll to cross and officials want to get them to switch to automated FasTrak or "pay by plate" accounts linking their credit cards to a toll accounting system. Those who want to pre-pay a toll with cash can pay at "Touch-N-Buy" kiosks around Marin, often found in convenience stores. If drivers do nothing, a bill for the toll will be mailed to the address of the registered owner of the vehicle.
But toll-takers, the face of the bridge for more than 75 years, will not be an option come March 28.
"It's been a beautiful thing working here," said toll-taker Dean, who is searching for a new job. "You see the sun set and the sun rise. It never gets old. For it to end this way is emotional for all of us. We are the ambassadors of the bridge."

Breakdown, by county, of where drivers who cross the bridge live:
Marin: 38.8 percent
San Francisco: 23.3 percent
Sonoma: 10.8 percent
San Mateo: 6.6 percent
Alameda: 2.7 percent
Santa Clara: 2.4 percent
Contra Costa: 1.7 percent
Napa: .08 percent

"Imagine if we did something different." Those were just six words out of close to 7,000 that President Barack Obama spoke during his State of the Union address. He was addressing both houses of Congress, which are controlled by his bitter foes. Most importantly, though, he was addressing the country. From whose lives has the shadow of crisis passed? And for whom is this Union strong?

Jacob departs secretly. (1-21) Laban pursues Jacob. (23-35) Jacob's complaint of Laban's conduct. (36-42) Their covenant at Galeed. (43-55)
Verses 1-21 The affairs of these families are related very minutely, while (what are called) the great events of states and kingdoms at that period, are not mentioned. The Bible teaches people the common duties of life, how to serve God, how to enjoy the blessings he bestows, and to do good in the various stations and duties of life. Selfish men consider themselves robbed of all that goes past them, and covetousness will even swallow up natural affection. Men's overvaluing worldly wealth is that error which is the root of covetousness, envy, and all evil. The men of the world stand in each other's way, and every one seems to be taking away from the rest; hence discontent, envy, and discord. But there are possessions that will suffice for all; happy they who seek them in the first place. In all our removals we should have respect to the command and promise of God. If He be with us, we need not fear. The perils which surround us are so many, that nothing else can really encourage our hearts. To remember favoured seasons of communion with God, is very refreshing when in difficulties; and we should often recollect our vows, that we fail not to fulfil them.
Verses 22-35 God can put a bridle in the mouth of wicked men, to restrain their malice, though he do not change their hearts. Though they have no love to God's people, they will pretend to it, and try to make a merit of necessity. Foolish Laban! to call those things his gods which could be stolen! Enemies may steal our goods, but not our God. Here Laban lays to Jacob's charge things that he knew not. Those who commit their cause to God, are not forbidden to plead it themselves with meekness and fear. When we read of Rachel's stealing her father's images, what a scene of iniquity opens! The family of Nahor, who left the idolatrous Chaldees; is this family itself become idolatrous? It is even so. The truth seems to be, that they were like some in after-times, who sware by the Lord and by Malcham, ( Zepheniah 1:5 ) ; and like others in our times, who wish to serve both God and mammon. Great numbers will acknowledge the true God in words, but their hearts and houses are the abodes of spiritual idolatry. When a man gives himself up to covetousness, like Laban, the world is his god; and he has only to reside among gross idolaters in order to become one, or at least a favourer of their abominations.
Verses 36-42 If Jacob were willingly consumed with heat in the day, and frost by night, to become the son-in-law of Laban, what should we refuse to endure, to become the sons of God? Jacob speaks of God as the God of his father; he thought himself unworthy to be regarded, but was beloved for his father's sake. He calls him the God of Abraham, and the fear of Isaac; for Abraham was dead, and gone to that world where perfect love casts out fear; but Isaac was yet alive, sanctifying the Lord in his heart, as his fear and his dread.
Verses 43-55 Laban could neither justify himself nor condemn Jacob, therefore desires to hear no more of that matter. He is not willing to own himself in fault, as he ought to have done. But he proposes a covenant of friendship between them, to which Jacob readily agrees. A heap of stones was raised, to keep up the memory of the event, writing being then not known or little used. A sacrifice of peace offerings was offered. Peace with God puts true comfort into our peace with our friends. They did eat bread together, partaking of the feast upon the sacrifice. In ancient times covenants of friendship were ratified by the parties eating and drinking together. God is judge between contending parties, and he will judge righteously; whoever do wrong, it is at their peril. They gave a new name to the place, The heap of witness. After this angry parley, they part friends. God is often better to us than our fears, and overrules the spirits of men in our favour, beyond what we could have expected; for it is not in vain to trust in him.
Genesis 31:1-21 . ENVY OF LABAN AND SONS.
1. he heard the words of Laban's sons--It must have been from rumor that Jacob got knowledge of the invidious reflections cast upon him by his cousins; for they were separated at the distance of three days' journey.
2. And Jacob beheld the countenance of Laban--literally, "was not the same as yesterday, and the day before," a common Oriental form of speech. The insinuations against Jacob's fidelity by Laban's sons, and the sullen reserve, the churlish conduct, of Laban himself, had made Jacob's situation, in his uncle's establishment, most trying and painful. It is always one of the vexations attendant on worldly prosperity, that it excites the envy of others ( Ecclesiastes 4:4 ); and that, however careful a man is to maintain a good conscience, he cannot always reckon on maintaining a good name, in a censorious world. This, Jacob experienced; and it is probable that, like a good man, he had asked direction and relief in prayer.
3. the Lord said . . . Return unto the land of thy fathers--Notwithstanding the ill usage he had received, Jacob might not have deemed himself at liberty to quit his present sphere, under the impulse of passionate fretfulness and discontent. Having been conducted to Haran by God ( Genesis 28:15 ) and having got a promise that the same heavenly Guardian would bring him again into the land of Canaan, he might have thought he ought not to leave it, without being clearly persuaded as to the path of duty. So ought we to set the Lord before us, and to acknowledge Him in all our ways, our journeys, our settlements, and plans in life.
4. Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah--His wives and family were in their usual residence. Whether he wished them to be present at the festivities of sheep shearing, as some think; or, because he could not leave his flock, he called them both to come to him, in order that, having resolved on immediate departure, he might communicate his intentions. Rachel and Leah only were called, for the other two wives, being secondary and still in a state of servitude, were not entitled to be taken into account. Jacob acted the part of a dutiful husband in telling them his plans; for husbands that love their wives should consult with them and trust in them ( Proverbs 31:11 ).
6. ye know that . . . I have served your father--Having stated his strong grounds of dissatisfaction with their father's conduct and the ill requital he had got for all his faithful services, he informed them of the blessing of God that had made him rich notwithstanding Laban's design to ruin him; and finally, of the command from God he had received to return to his own country, that they might not accuse him of caprice, or disaffection to their family; but be convinced, that in resolving to depart, he acted from a principle of religious obedience.
14. Rachel and Leah answered--Having heard his views, they expressed their entire approval; and from grievances of their own, they were fully as desirous of a separation as himself. They display not only conjugal affection, but piety in following the course described--"whatsoever God hath said unto thee, do" ( Genesis 31:16 ). "Those that are really their husbands' helpmeets will never be their hindrances in doing that to which God calls them" [HENRY].
17. Then Jacob rose up--Little time is spent by pastoral people in removing. The striking down the tents and poles and stowing them among their other baggage; the putting their wives and children in houdas like cradles, on the backs of camels, or in panniers on asses; and the ranging of the various parts of the flock under the respective shepherds; all this is a short process. A plain that is covered in the morning with a long array of tents and with browsing flocks, may, in a few hours, appear so desolate that not a vestige of the encampment remains, except the holes in which the tent poles had been fixed.
18. he carried the cattle of his getting--that is, his own and nothing more. He did not indemnify himself for his many losses by carrying off any thing of Laban's, but was content with what Providence had given him. Some may think that due notice should have been given; but when a man feels himself in danger--the law of self-preservation prescribes the duty of immediate flight, if it can be done consistently with conscience.
20. Jacob stole away--The result showed the prudence and necessity of departing secretly; otherwise, Laban might have detained him by violence or artifice.
Genesis 31:22-55 . LABAN PURSUES JACOB--THEIR COVENANT AT GILEAD.
22-24. it was told Laban on the third day--No sooner did the news reach Laban than he set out in pursuit, and he being not encumbered, advanced rapidly; whereas Jacob, with a young family and numerous flocks, had to march slowly, so that he overtook the fugitives after seven days' journey as they lay encamped on the brow of mount Gilead, an extensive range of hills forming the eastern boundary of Canaan. Being accompanied by a number of his people, he might have used violence had he not been divinely warned in a dream to give no interruption to his nephew's journey. How striking and sudden a change! For several days he had been full of rage, and was now in eager anticipation that his vengeance would be fully wreaked, when lo! his hands are tied by invisible power ( Psalms 76:10 ). He did not dare to touch Jacob, but there was a war of words.
26-30. Laban said . . . What hast thou done?--Not a word is said of the charge ( Genesis 31:1 ). His reproaches were of a different kind. His first charge was for depriving him of the satisfaction of giving Jacob and his family the usual salutations at parting. In the East it is customary, when any are setting out to a great distance, for their relatives and friends to accompany them a considerable way with music and valedictory songs. Considering the past conduct of Laban, his complaint on this ground was hypocritical cant. But his second charge was a grave one--the carrying off his gods--Hebrew, "teraphim," small images of human figures, used not as idols or objects of worship, but as talismans, for superstitious purposes.
31, 32. Jacob said, . . . With whomsoever thou findest thy gods let him not live--Conscious of his own innocence and little suspecting the misdeed of his favorite wife, Jacob boldly challenged a search and denounced the heaviest penalty on the culprit. A personal scrutiny was made by Laban, who examined every tent [ Genesis 31:33 ]; and having entered Rachel's last, he would have infallibly discovered the stolen images had not Rachel made an appeal to him which prevented further search [ Genesis 31:34 Genesis 31:35 ].
34. Rachel had taken the images, and put them in the camel's furniture, and sat upon them--The common pack saddle is often used as a seat or a cushion, against which a person squatted on the floor may lean.
36, 37. Jacob was wroth--Recrimination on his part was natural in the circumstances, and, as usual, when passion is high, the charges took a wide range. He rapidly enumerated his grievances for twenty years and in a tone of unrestrained severity described the niggard character and vexatious exactions of his uncle, together with the hardships of various kinds he had patiently endured.
38. The rams of thy flock have I not eaten--Eastern people seldom kill the females for food except they are barren.
39. That which was torn of beasts I brought not unto thee--The shepherds are strictly responsible for losses in the flock, unless they can prove these were occasioned by wild beasts.
40. in the day the drought . . . and the frost by night--The temperature changes often in twenty-four hours from the greatest extremes of heat and cold, most trying to the shepherd who has to keep watch by his flocks. Much allowance must be made for Jacob. Great and long-continued provocations ruffle the mildest and most disciplined tempers. It is difficult to "be angry and sin not" [ Ephesians 4:26 ]. But these two relatives, after having given utterance to their pent-up feelings, came at length to a mutual understanding, or rather, God influenced Laban to make reconciliation with his injured nephew ( Proverbs 16:7 ).
44. Come thou, let us make a covenant--The way in which this covenant was ratified was by a heap of stones being laid in a circular pile, to serve as seats, and in the center of this circle a large one was set up perpendicularly for an altar. It is probable that a sacrifice was first offered, and then that the feast of reconciliation was partaken of by both parties seated on the stones around it. To this day heaps of stones, which have been used as memorials, are found abundantly in the region where this transaction took place.
52. This heap be witness--Objects of nature were frequently thus spoken of. But over and above, there was a solemn appeal to God; and it is observable that there was a marked difference in the religious sentiments of the two. Laban spake of the God of Abraham and Nahor, their common ancestors; but Jacob, knowing that idolatry had crept in among that branch of the family, swore by the "fear of his father Isaac." They who have one God should have one heart: they who are agreed in religion should endeavor to agree in everything else.

Drupal and the $6000 hosting bill, getting to the truth quickly
It's political season here in the United States, and that means it's rumor time. Research has shown that if we are exposed to information as little as eight times we are more likely to believe it. Logic, facts, reason don't necessary apply to our human brains. Political strategist know this, marketers know this and they can use it in influencing you. Journalists know this too.
On Monday morning, Drupal got caught up in a [Updated]conjecture that it was the source of a bug that led to a $6000 hosting bill. It turns out that the backup and migrate module was installed in a hosting environment with limited resources. The back-ups were running automatically but failed to complete, most likely due to a PHP timeout or CPU resource limitation on compressing the back-ups. The result was that the temporary files created as part of the back-up were not being cleaned up and were accumulating. That accumulation lead to 100 GB storage overage charge which resulted in a greater than $6000 hosting bill. In most hosting environments, the temporary directory would have filled up and that would have been the end of it.
The problem was posted in the Drupal forums and the community jumped in and tried to help, making suggestion after suggestion, with out a full list of modules. The site owner decided to publish an article (part 1, part 2) to a popular political site Huffington Post, and then it got picked up by the consumerist.com. The hosting company jumped on to the story and worked to resolve it. But by that time the story had gotten picked up by Digg.com and was on the front page.
Over the next 24 hours over 40000 people read that "Drupal, which, like a cancerous tumor, was unstoppably copying thousands of temporary files" was the technical source of this problem. The article was really a criticism of the hosting company but facts were not going to get in the way of a good juicy read.
At the time the hosting company was running well over 10000 instances of Drupal, which were not reporting the same problem. In fact, according to the Drupal.org project usage logs there were at least 1719 sites using the 5.x version and 2093 using the 6.x version of the backup and migrate module without these problems.
I contacted the editors of the article and they were kind enough to update the article to take the heat off Drupal. But they put it on the less defended third party module. They also updated the article to include the technical explanation I provided. I am glad they were responsive.
I managed to get the module maintainer, Ronan Dowling on the phone and he was very helpful. Here's what he had to say:
I'm glad this situation ended well for Adam. I hope I can figure out exactly what happened here so I can make sure other people don't run into this, and in the meantime I'm going to redo the module's docs to make the configuration and troubleshooting steps easier.
Some people believe that responding to these kinds of allegations are below us. I tend to agree. I just wish it was below our brains.
Good post, Kieran. Thanks for jumping on this situation and helping connect all the right dots to get the truth out there. Unfortunately, as you pointed out, the first impression was already set for many and "Drupal = risk of insane hosting company overage charges" will be sealed in the minds of tens of thousands of people who read the original errant story. A painful fact of life, I suppose.
In truth, the only way to really defeat insane situations like the above is to prevent adverse events from happening in the first place. Exactly how that might be achieved is a interesting engineering question that might be worth thinking about a little. Even if the solution was imperfect, but worked 80% of the time, it might be something worth considering.
If only there was a company out there dedicated to making life easier for operators of Drupal sites... ;-)
"The back-ups were running automatically but failed to complete [...] The result was that the temporary files created as part of the back-up were not being cleaned up and were accumulating."
Regardless of PHP timeouts or CPU resource limitations of the host, this sounds like the backup and migrate module was indeed at fault. If the process fails to complete, the module should either delete the temporary files or at least wait for admin intervention before commencing another attempt.
The original report incorrectly implicated Drupal core, but it seems unrealistic to expect the reporter to understand the technicalities of the distinction. At the level of abstraction appropriate to HuffPo and The Consumerist, the story appears substantially accurate: The original poster was stuck with a $6K hosting bill because of problems related to (a module of) Drupal. Branding the story a "rumor" with the implication that we "shouldn't stoop to responding to such allegations" just makes us look finicky and defensive.
"Regardless of PHP timeouts or CPU resource limitations of the host, this sounds like the backup and migrate module was indeed at fault. If the process fails to complete, the module should either delete the temporary files or at least wait for admin intervention before commencing another attempt."
The script can't really tell if the PHP script timed out. I'm sure there's ways but not simple ones. It's too much to be expected.
The short summery of this entire situation is this. "It's your responsibility to watch your site and your modules. Just because something works for most people, Doesn't mean it will work 100% of the time. Despite peoples best efforts, Bugs still happen."
Well, this is similar to your typical "edge case"... it's like image uploads, you don't upload a 100MB image and actually expect it to work inside of imagecache. And if it DOESN'T work you don't go blaming Drupal for its inability to handle images. PHP (like any language) has limitations and once you hit them... sorry. Furthermore those limitations vary based upon your host, so YMMV and you have to evaluate it.
I'm extremely pleased that the Drupal community is organized enough to handle these types of PR issues. When news had first broken out, a few friends and I were concerned about how this huge open source community would be able to quickly come together and present corrections on the technical errors of the issue at hand. I started worrying about clients calling me or deciding to not invest in Drupal any longer.
It turns out we didn't have to worry at all! A plan was decided upon and executed by the end of the day, with the exact causes explained so I have something to tell my clients.
In general, I like the direction Drupal is going, and I'm happy that I picked it as my CMS of choice for my development speciality.
Kieran, thanks for sticking with this and contacting everyone involved in order to improve the quality of information being published about Drupal.
That said - maybe it is time for a really big drupal_set_message() or something to that affect on all contrib project pages and/or an alert when people download contrib modules, to the effect of "This module is not an official/supported part of Drupal core itself, it's been created and provided by private individuals and has no association with Drupal core. You use these files at your own risk and we recommend you monitor your results and hosting environment to ensure they are functioning properly."
Of course, even that won't guarantee that another incident like this can't occur, but if it helps educate users about the difference between core and contrib even a little bit and/or shows proof of the Drupal community's due diligence...
Well, you also use Drupal core on your own risk. The message you propose might make believe the contrary, though. While Drupal core is a lot more stable and tested as most contributed modules, there still might be certain obscure server configuration or whatever in which Drupal might fail in unexpected ways. There is no one being responsible for Drupal core. You're not paying for it, after all - it's just provides "as it is".
I've been following the story from the get go and I keep hearing Drupal this or backup and migrate that-- with very little emphasis on a host that charges $6000 for 100 gb of disk quota overage. Never mind the absurdity of that amount of charges in relation to the cost of disk storage these days, what about a major commercial hosting company having a disk quota, with that kind of penalty, and no method of enforcing it or notifications at certain thresholds prior to exceeding the quota?
And let's not forget that regardless of what tools a host does or does not provide, it's ultimately the responsibility of a webmaster for monitoring his/her account parameters.
Drupal was the least responsible component of this problem yet received the most press coverage. It's a painful reminder that user impressions, regardless of facts, can have a lasting impact.
This is an unfortunate combination of:
a) the hosting environment being restrictive (killing processes that takes over a certain amount of resources), and
b) the module not using a unique prefix to its temp files (making them harder to diagnose as to who created them.
The solution in this case, short of changing hosts, is to fortify the module against such hosting situations.
I opened an issue #317887 for backup_migrate to make it use a uniquely identifiable prefix as well as cleanup the temporary files that are older than a certain number of hours.
I had read that story before. its not all that surprising when some hosts have very lenient packages and crazy overage charges. I'm glad that everything worked out in the end.
