Real Salt Lake report card: Defenders steal the show — all other positions contribute
SANDY — Real Salt Lake's defenders stole the show Wednesday night, which hasn't happened for a long time. RSL's defense is known as stealthy and tough to breakdown, though it's not often considered flashy.
Outside backs Tony Beltran and Chris Wingert definitely shook things up by each scoring as Real Salt Lake defeated the Carolina RailHawks 3-0 Wednesday night.
Although the defenders made a bold claim for the best position group of the night, the forwards, midfield and keeper Josh Saunders all contributed as RSL advanced to the U.S. Open Cup semifinals.
Here's a closer look at each position group and its grade for the night:

text: 1Physics Department, University of Salento, Lecce, Italy 2NILU-Norwegian Institute for Air Research, Kjeller, Norway Abstract. Volcanic aerosols resulting from the Eyjafjallajökull eruption were detected in south-eastern Italy from 20 to 22 April 2010, at a distance of approximately 4000 km from the volcano, and have been characterized by lidar, sun/sky photometer, and surface in-situ measurements. Volcanic particles added to the pre-existing aerosol load and measurement data allow quantifying the impact of volcanic particles on the aerosol vertical distribution, lidar ratios, the aerosol size distribution, and the ground-level particulate-matter concentrations. Lidar measurements reveal that backscatter coefficients by volcanic particles were about one order of magnitude smaller over south-eastern Italy than over Central Europe. Mean lidar ratios at 355 nm were equal to 64 ± 5 sr inside the volcanic aerosol layer and were characterized by smaller values (47 ± 2 sr) in the underlying layer on 20 April, 19:30 UTC. Lidar ratios and their dependence with the height reduced in the following days, mainly because of the variability of the volcanic particle contributions. Size distributions from sun/sky photometer measurements reveal the presence of volcanic particles with radii r > 0.5 μm on 21 April and that the contribution of coarse volcanic particles increased from 20 to 22 April. The aerosol fine mode fraction from sun/sky photometer measurements varied between values of 0.85 and 0.94 on 20 April and decreased to values between 0.25 and 0.82 on 22 April. Surface measurements of particle size distributions were in good accordance with column averaged particle size distributions from sun/sky photometer measurements. PM1/PM2.5 mass concentration ratios of 0.69, 0.66, and 0.60 on 20, 21, and 22 April, respectively, support the increase of super-micron particles at ground. Measurements from the Regional Air Quality Agency show that PM10 mass concentrations on 20, 21, and 22 April 2010 were enhanced in the entire Apulia Region. More specifically, PM10 mass concentrations have on average increased over Apulia Region 22%, 50%, and 28% on 20, 21, and 22 April, respectively, compared to values on 19 April. Finally, the comparison of measurement data with numerical simulations by the FLEXPART dispersion model demonstrates the ability of FLEXPART to model the advection of the volcanic ash over the 4000 km from the Eyjafjallajökull volcano to Southern Italy.

Henrico Police arrest 10 in West End prostitution sting
Henrico Police arrested and charged a Florida woman with prostitution and nine men with soliciting a prostitute or solicitation of prostitution earlier this month as part of of "Operation 360 - An All Points Crime Initiative," officials announced today. Police concentrated their efforts during the week of Oct. 3-9 in the residential and commercial communities within the Wistar Road, West Broad Street, Glenside Drive and Staples Mill Road areas. Overall, they arrested 115 people, charging 98 with traffic violations, 12 with criminal charges and serving 10 outstanding warrants. A prostitution sting along the Glenside Drive and West Broad Street commercial areas led to 10 arrests. Danielle Jane Cummings of Jacksonville, Fla. was charged with prostitution. Three men were charged with soliciting a prostitute and six men were charged with solicitation of prostitution. The 'All Points Crime Initiative' was designed to address quality of life issues in the county, officials said. It spearheads the use of the intelligence-led policing model, according to Police Chief Doug Middleton. The effort will continue throughout the year. "It will incorporate special projects at every compass point in the county", Middleton said. Through partnerships with members of the community, police gathered information that was useful in launching specific enforcement initiatives, officials said. |

Seven election thoughts:
1. Be careful what you say in private as well as public
2. Don't be too concerned about what others say in private – you hypocrite!
3. The medium and the message cannot be separated – wear a radio mic at all times or agree to televised debates and that will shape what and how people hear
4. Fight for the primacy of policy over personality – it is a losing battle but a noble one
5. Be at peace about the fact that voting in elections is always choosing between lesser evils rather than for perfection – Jesus is the only perfect ruler
6. Thank God for his grace to us that the transfer of power happens through the marking of crosses and not at the end of a gun

Official Extinction Thread
Who is enjoying this gamemode option? I know I am, even though I've only played it like 3 times thus far, those times have been awesome. I actually like this better than Zombies I think. It's the same basic concept, but they are entirely different. I'm only level 9, which is not bad for only playing 3 times. At least I think.
Thoughts? What rank are you? |
I think I'm level 10 but I've only played twice. We got to the last hive and then I think someone fell off the edge of the map.. haha.
TRUE TALENT GAMING www.truetalentgaming.com www.twitter.com/trueXtalent www.youtube.com/T2TrueTalent www.facebook.com/TrueTalentGaming |
Awesome! I've only made it to hive 11 as my farthest. The first time I played I was doing a lot of exploring and was by myself. I didn't make it very far. Lol
Difficulty scales. It gets significantly harder with more people.
TRUE TALENT GAMING www.truetalentgaming.com www.twitter.com/trueXtalent www.youtube.com/T2TrueTalent www.facebook.com/TrueTalentGaming |
Well I've got to say after numerous attempts I do not think it gets harder by the number of people playing (which is unfair), not 100% sure of this but hey, just my thoughts.
Things become a lot more difficult if you choose an obsolete class load out or perhaps a load out that does not complement your playstyle i.e no point having Weapon specialist if you don't plan on shooting all those aliens off your team mates. A good balance works brilliant i.e WS, Tank, Medic, Engineer. On my first attempt I made it to the last hive and oh my, I got my ass handed to me (Fail). Then I've had a go on public and it's frustrating seeing a challenge like 'Use only melee until the hive is destroyed' and you see an idiot shooting at them....basically you don't get very far with randomz that have no mics. Last night I had another go - Destroyed last hive then armed the nuke then legged it back towards spawn chopper, placing sentry guns every so often (5 Rhino Aliens chasing us) Anyway so I made it all the way to the end just to then be charged at by a rhino. My two other so called team mates both jumped in the chopper and flew off. It says we beat it (cant remember the exact message) but also said 'One of your teammates did not make it' ahhhhhhh!!!!!! It did not count for me because of this. No leaderboard escapes and no crappy little emblem Just thought i'd mention this scenario so you can somehow prepare for public match pair-ups. -I'm currently level 25 or so and have all but one thing unlocked (Vulture). -I know where all guns are and attack helicopter (x2 locations) are. -I can defeat Rhino's in about 10 seconds -Yes, I do know about the cool hypno knife and how to get alien on my team. ...There's not much I don't know about extinction and it's strategies so give me a shout if you ever want to pair up Edit: For the record solo play is a lot more difficult even with self-revive. Hive 5 for me I think
Xbox 360 GT: ManicRUSH PlayStation and Xbox clan: ManicGaming www.manicgaming.moonfruit.com |
I love Extinction. Prefer it to Zombies and prefer it to Ghosts MP and Squads. Having actual objectives lends to the preference, admittedly.
Manic mentioned above the whole challenge thing with randoms and that does get on my nerves - more than it actually should, tbh. It's not at all unclear what the challenge is and it's blatant that I and other members of the team are doing it, yet somehow these randoms still don't get the idea that "only use melee" doesn't mean "spaz out and fire your gun at everything that moves". Regarding the challenges... As soon as I see someone equipping either the full-auto or burst-fire pistol, I know it's not going to go well on account of the accuracy challenges (keep shot accuracy at 50% / 75% until the hive is destroyed). Actually had a guy in a lobby today who felt my frustration; all I heard was "really? You're shooting? F*ck y-" and he was gone before he finished. Currently got 2 escapes, haven't yet escaped with a relic active. I know where pretty much all the weapons and random items are, know how to RUIN barrier hives and usually base my playstyle on how worthy my teammates seem to be of support. To have me be a team player is simple - don't mess up the challenges! Not sure how to take out a Rhino in just 10 seconds, but with a decent team we can get them down pretty quick (which is just luck for me, since randoms are BAD). Same as above, if anyone needs any help with it feel free to gimme a shout. Usual loadout: Weapon Specialist Magnum Explosive Ammo Team Armor Sentry Turret Death Machine For a more "tryhard" approach I switch out Weapon Specialist for Medic and Explosive Ammo for Armor-Piercing Ammo. Oh, and I think I'm almost at max rank. Might have just one "set" to go through yet, not sure. Think this is my third time through. Some basic recommendations if anyone wants some tips: - The MR-28 is a decent one to start out with. It's in the field area after the first hive (follow the road, off to your right). - You can use propane tanks to knock down the health of barrier hives a little quicker. Death Machine and MK-whatever (the grenade launcher) also help in this respect. - So far it seems impossible to use the Hypno Knife on Rhinos (even if you don't hit their armour). - Doing the challenges will net you 2pts per hive rather than 1pt, which makes progress a LOT easier. - For the accuracy challenges, just shoot ONE alien ONCE then do the rest of the round knife-only (if you can - this is harder to pull off the further you get due to the presence of Scorpions and Lepers). If you do this you're guaranteed 100% accuracy unless some badkidscrandypants ruins it all. And to finish off: Extinction is the only reason I might buy DLC for this game.
Blow your trumpets, Gabriel.
I want to play some more extinction and actually escape.
TRUE TALENT GAMING www.truetalentgaming.com www.twitter.com/trueXtalent www.youtube.com/T2TrueTalent www.facebook.com/TrueTalentGaming |
I'd offer to team up but UK - US connection will probably traumatise us.
Blow your trumpets, Gabriel.
Went in another Pub extinction last night and oh my how different things can be with a team that knows what there doing. All four of us seemed to be going that extra mile to support each other. Challenges all done. Barrier hives, what barrier hives? haha We actually smashed it!
Before we armed the nuke we all placed 2xSentry guns each at the (not-yet-spawned) barrier hive. Did this to defeat the alien horde quicker to make the barrier disappear. Anyway so we armed the nuke, I upgraded my pistol until it gave me the x2 speed bonus and another guy threw maxed Feral instincts to help us all run >>>>fast. Held our own all the way back to chopper, I used my maxed death machine to take out all the rhinos (making sure to shoot at chest or rear legs). 3 of us were all waiting at the chopper for player number 4 and then he came trudging down the hill with a riot shield on his back...probably forgot to pick up the many Feral instincts that were dropped along the way. Anyway I got Gold on my first escape aswell as about 3x achievements. I think I was .02 away from platinum. I would like to know if anyone knows if the time set is based off all players returning to the chopper or just yourself?
Xbox 360 GT: ManicRUSH PlayStation and Xbox clan: ManicGaming www.manicgaming.moonfruit.com |
Well I just escaped tonight and all my teammates died and I got Platinum... I just didn't have the time or resources to revive as we ran back. We also didn't know that shard blocks your path in the alley as you're running back for extraction.

Anyway, to counter OP, I've been going out with my girlfriend for a nearly a year and three months now. We started dating when I was a senior and she was a junior (well, the summer of those years). Now I'm off in college and she's still in high school, and our relationship is great.
I have a girlfriend and I am in grade 12 and she is in grade 11. Mind you, we are a bit more mature about our relationship and we don't makeout in the halls or anything like that. The occasional kiss when we go to classes is about it.

Young brothers get head start on helping others
Rochester, N.Y. - Two brothers, one of them 6, the other 9, spearheaded an afternoon of fun Saturday to raise money for another kid battling cancer.
The best part is, they didn't even know him.
"I'm overwhelmed with joy right now to know that total strangers would be so supportive," said Sofie Ann Jones, the mother of Camren Wright. "It makes me very happy.
Joshua and Jeremiah West heard about young Camren Wright, who's fighting cancer.
They wanted to help pay for the medical costs.
The fundraiser for Wright, outside the Radisson Hotel in Downtown Rochester, included a fun run, bouncy houses, food and music.
13WHAM News asked the brothers - and Camren -- about their future goals.
"Start playing music and bless people with my music," said Joshua West.
"My next step is to play my harmonica and get money and raise it and save other children," said his brother Jeremiah.
"My next step is to be a police-cop and save the world," exclaimed young Camren.

This Australian documentary, that has won praise from professionals in the field, highlights how real estate distorts the rest of the economy.

a scientific look at how we divvy up the work and the wealth, how some of us end up with too much or too little effort or reward. That's partly due to Ricardo's Law of Rent, showing how wasteful use of Earth cuts wages. And it's partly due to how a society's elite runs government around like water boys, dishing out subsidies and tax breaks. While geonomists look political reality right in the eye, without blinking, conventional economists flinch. When Paul Volcker, ex-chief of the Federal Reserve, moved on to a cushy professorship at Princeton cum book contract, the crush of deadlines bore down. So Volcker asked a junior associate to help with the book. The guy refused, explaining that giving serious consideration to policy would ruin his academic career. The ex-Fed chief couldn't believe it and asked the department chair if truly that were the case. That head honcho pondered the question then replied no, not if he only does it once. And economics was AKA political economy!
the study of the money we spend on the nature we use. When we pay that money to private owners, we reward both speculation and over-extraction. Robert Kiyosaki's bestseller, Rich Dad's Prophecy, says, "One of the reasons McDonald's is such a rich company is not because it sells a lot of burgers but because it owns the land at some of the best intersections in the world. The main reason Kim and I invest in such properties is to own the land at the corner of the intersection. (p 200) My real estate advisor states that the rich either made their money in real estate or hold their money in real estate." (p 141, via Greg Young) When government recovers the rents for natural advantages for everyone, it can save citizens millions. Ben Sevack, Montreal steel manufacturer, tells us (August 12) that Alberta, by leasing oil & gas fields, recovers enough revenue to be the only province in Canada to get by without a sales tax and to levy a flat provincial income tax. While running for re-election, provincial Premier Ralph Klein proposes to abolish their income tax and promises to eliminate medical insurance premiums and use resource revenue to pay for all medical expense for seniors. After all this planned tax-cutting and greater expense, they still expect a large budget surplus. Even places without oil and gas have high site values in their downtowns, and high values in their utility franchises. Recover the values of locations and privileges, displace the harmful taxes on sales, salaries, and structures, then use the revenue to fund basic government and pay residents a dividend, and you have geonomics in action.
as unfamiliar as geo-economics. The latter is a course some universities offer that combines geography and economics. A UN newsletter, Go Between (57, Apr/May '96; thanks, Pat Aller), cited an Asian conference on geopolitics and "geoeconomics". The abbreviated term 'geonomics" is the name of an institute on Middlebury College campus and of a show on CNBC. Both entities use the neologism to mean "global economics", in particular world trade. We use geonomics entirely differently, to refer to the money people spend on the nature they use, how letting this flow collect in a few pockets creates class and poverty and assaults upon the environment, and how, on the other hand, sharing this rental flow creates equality, prosperity, and a people/planet harmony. This flow of natural rent, several trillions dollars in the US each year, shapes society and belongs to society.
a new field of study offered in place of economics, as astronomy replaced astrology and chemistry replaced alchemy. Conventional economics, in which GNP can do well while people suffer, is a bit too superstitious for my renaissance upbringing. If I'm to propitiate unseen forces, it won't be inflation or "the market"; let it be theEgyptian cat goddess. At least then we'd have fewer rats. Meanwhile, believing in reason leads to a new policy, also christened geonomics. That's the proposal to share (a kind of management, the "nomics" part) the worth of Mother Earth (the "geo" part). If our economies are to work right, people need to see prices that tell the truth. Now taxes and subsidies distort prices, tricking people into squandering the planet. Using land dues and rent dividends instead lets prices be precise, guiding people to get more from less and thereby shrink their workweek. More free time ought to make us happy enough to evolve beyond economics, except when nostalgic for superstition.
more transformation than reform; it's a step ahead. Harvard economics students this year did petition to change the curriculum, in the wake of the English who caught the dissension from across The Channel. French reformers, who fault conventional economics for conjuring mathematical models of little empirical relevance and being closed to critical and reflective thought, reject this "autism" – or detachment from reality – and dub their offering "post-autistic economics". Not a bad name, but again, academics define themselves by what they're not, not by what they are, unlike geonomists. We track rent – the money we spend on the nature we use – and watch it pull all the other economic indicators in its wake. We see economies as part and parcel of the ecosystem, similarly following natural patterns and able to self-regulate more so than allowed, once we quit distorting prices. To align people and planet, we'd replace taxes and subsidies with recovering and sharing rents.
a new policy from a new perspective. Once your worldview shifts — so that vacant city lots are no longer invisible — then epiphany. "Of course! Why didn't I see it before?" Once you do see the emptiness and what damage it does, how can you ever go back to the old paradigm?
shaped by reality. In the 1980′s, the Swedish government doubled its stock transfer tax. Tax receipts, however, rose only 15%, since traders simply fled to London exchanges. Fearing a further exodus, the Swedish government quickly rescinded the tax altogether. (The New York Times, April 20) That willingness to tax anything leads us astray. Pushing us astray is that unwillingness to pay what we owe: rent for land, our common heritage. Assuming land value is up for grabs, we speculate. We cap the property tax on both land and buildings and the rate at which assessments can go up; while real market values rise quicker, assessments can never catch up. Our stewards, the Bureau of Land Management, routinely sell and lease sites below market value, often to insiders, says the Government Accounting Office. Once we grasp that rent is ours to share, we'll collect it all, rather than let it enrich a few, and quit taxing earnings, which do belong to the individual earner. That shift is geonomic policy.
not exactly Georgism, the Single Tax on land value proposed by Henry George. He did, tho', inspire most of the real-world implementations of the land tax that some jurisdictions enjoy today, and modern thinkers to craft geonomics. While his name and our remedy both begin with "geo" since both words refer to "Earth", the two have their differences. (a) George pegs land monopoly as the fundamental flaw while geonomics faults Rent retention. (b) To fix the flaw, George was content to use a tax, while geonomics jettisons them in favor of price-like fees. (c) George focused on the taking while geonomics headlines the sharing. George envisioned an enlightened state judiciously spending the collected Rent while geonomics would turn the lion's share over to the citizens via a dividend. (d) And George, as was everyone in his era, was pro-growth while geonomics sees economies as alive, growing, maturing, and stabilizing. Despite these differences, George should be recognized as great an economist as Euclid was a geometrician.
what you do when you see economies as part of the ecosystem, following feedback loops and storing up energy. Surplus energy – fat or profit – enables us to produce and reproduce. To recycle society's surplus, the commonwealth, geonomics would replace taxes with land dues (charged to users of sites and resources, including the EM spectrum, and extra to polluters), and replace subsidies with rent dividends to citizens (a la Alaska's oil dividend). Without taxes and subsidies to distort them, prices become precise, reflect accurately our costs and values; then, motivated by no more than the bottom line, both producers and consumers make sustainable choices. While no place uses geonomics in its entirety, some places use parts of it, most notably a shift of the property tax off buildings, onto locations. Shifting the property tax drives efficient use of land, in-fills cities, improves the housing stock, makes homes affordable, engenders jobs and investment opportunities, lowers crime, raises civic participation, etc – overall it makes cities more livable. Geonomics – a way to share the bounty of nature and society – is something we can work for locally, globally, and in between.
an answer for Jonathan of the Green Party (Nov 7): "What does 'share our surplus' mean?" Our surplus is the values that society generates synergistically. It's the money we spend on the nature we use: on land sites, natural resources, EM spectrum, ecosystem services (assimilating pollutants). It's also the money we pay to holders of government-granted privileges like corporate charters. We could share it by paying for the nature we use and privileges we hold to the public treasury then getting back a fair share of the recovered revenue. Used to be, owners did owe rent ("own" and "owe" used to be one word). And presently, some lucky residents do get back periodic dividends: Alaska's oil dividend and Aspen Colorado's housing assistance. Doing that, instead of subsidizing bads while taxing goods, is the essence of geonomics. Jonathan: "Is local currency what you mean?" Editor: It's not. Community currency is a good reform, but every good reform pushes up site values. That makes land an even more tempting object of speculation. Now, any good will eventually do bad by widening the income gap – until you share land values.

Immigration policy should reflect our best values |
Published on Sat, Jan 23, 2010
"Immigrants don't want to learn English." "Immigrants don't pay taxes." "Immigrants increase the crime rate." "Immigrants take jobs away from Americans." "Immigrants are a drain on the U.S. economy." "Illegal immigrants are a burden on the U.S. health care system."
Americans have been using these generalizations for 150 years to stigmatize members of every ethnic group that has traveled to these shores seeking a better life for themselves and their children.

Ryan Calloway shines on the dance floor. His enthusiasm, buoyant rhythm and boundless creativity make him one of San Francisco's best known Lindy Hop leads. Most nights you'll find him pounding the floor at one of the city's local jazz and swing clubs. Ryan's goal as a teacher is to inspire his students to find their own creativity. With an open and warm style, he welcomes individuals to not only learn the traditions of Vintage Jazz Dance, but to add to it as well.
They live now in San Marcos Texas. Called trailblazers and trend setters they have been involved for 30 years; dancing, performing, promoting and teaching from small to large groups in California and around the world.

Norma Miller was first discovered as a gifted young Lindy Hopper by Herbert "Whitey" White when she was just 14 years old. She was the youngest of Whitey's Lindy Hoppers when she joined the group. She was from the start a very creative dancer with her own often comic style and she possessed an outstanding sense of rhythm. A vivacious and outspoken person, she was and still is always the life of every party.
Chazz Young started dancing when he was 8 years old and joined Norma Miller & Her Jazz Men when he was 17. They toured the world performing Lindy, Jazz, and Tap from London to Australia. Over the years Chazz has performed and taught Lindy Hop, Jazz Steps and Tap with his father Frankie Manning becoming the most famous father son duo in the history of swing dance. Chazz is a wonderful teacher and polished performer with a patient and gentle nature. Learning from Chazz is delightful and easy.

His choreography can be seen in music videos for Boys II Men, Sugar Ray, Teena Marie, as well as working with artists such as Savion Glover, MC Hammer, Prince and many more. Also a highly renowned drummer and band leader, he has worked with some of the best in the entertainment industry. Chester exudes boundless positive energy and passion for dance and is a born entertainer. His contributions have been far too many to name them all. He can only be seen to be believed.
For more than 30 years, Don Neely, band leader, multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, composer and arranger, has been recognized as a pioneer of the 1920's and 30's "Hot Dance" and Swing revival. Don now shares his love of the small group jazz bands of the 1930's and 40's with his Swingtet. The group plays the same great music with an emphasis on the hot four-beat style of that era. You will really enjoy dancing to the Don Neely Swingtet.
On Friday Evening February 20th, Don is joined by five talented swing musicians: Andrew Storar: trumpet, Frederick Hodges: piano, Dix Bruce: guitar, Steve Apple: drums, and Marty Eggers: string bass.

You have a few Lindy Hop classes under your belt. The basics are comfortable, but you realize that continuing to fine-tune them will only make you better. While you can execute basics during classes, you want to learn how to become more comfortable on the social floor. Higher tempos are a bit challenging still and you look forward to learning how to connect moves quicker and smoother as a leader and how to keep your frame and follow rhythm changes as a follower. Requirement for this track is to know the basics of Lindy Hop.
You have been dancing Lindy Hop socially regularly for some time now and you are definitely striving to become a better dancer. Social dancing comes more naturally to you now and you are building confidence on the floor. You are executing moves and patterns, but your repertoire is limited or getting old. You want to bring more styling and footwork variations into your dancing. You want more options out on the dance floor, you want to further fine-tune your technique and you are ready to bring your Lindy Hop to the next level!
You are one of the better dancers on the social floor and you have a lot of confidence. Moves are old news, better movement is your focus. You are starting to master your technique and bring musicality into your dancing now. You have been Lindy Hopping for a while and have most likely traveled here or there to Lindy Hop. You feel like you aren't improving as much as you would like to. You are eager to learn from masters of the dance and want to be inspired so you can move to the next level.
You are one of the best dancers on any social floor! You have been doing Lindy Hop for a long time now and have traveled to many Lindy Hop events to better your dancing. You have probably taught the next generation of dancers locally and perhaps even at out of town workshops. You have a lot of repertoire but want to bring your overall dancing to the next level. You are trying to figure out how to cross into that new territory in Lindy Hop that is sometimes hard to pin-point. You are ready to be inspired and figure out how to break into new horizons.
Thank you for wanting to volunteer for Swingin' At The Savoy!
Please fill out the form below so that we can figure out if we can find you a volunteer spot.

Linux Foundation to Embrace Individuals With Open Arms
If you've ever thought about becoming a member of the Linux Foundation — the not-for-profit organization responsible, among other things, for keeping Lead Penguin Linux Torvalds a'coding — then you might know it's been a bit of an expensive proposition in the past. The door has been opened a bit wider for individuals, however, as the Foundation is now offering an individual affiliate membership for the low, low price of just one easy payment of $49 per year.
In the past, corporate memberships, of which there are three classes, have been the most visible method of signing up to save the world. Running anywhere from $5,000 to $500,000 per year — though you do get some nice perks, like a seat on the board with your $500K — corporate membership has been adopted by a relative few, with most of the expected names appearing on the list. Individuals, though, were somewhat out-of-luck on gaining a seat — even a small one — at the table.
The Foundation is now offering an annual membership for $49, which promises a free t-shirt and quarterly newsletter, as well as the opportunity to elect two directors, and to run for one of as many as five seats. Of course, membership is more than a free t-shirt, or even a spot on the Board — it's an opportunity to help promote and protect Linux — and by extension, all Open Source software.
Justin Ryan is a Contributing Editor for Linux Journal.
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

HoopsHype Alexey Shved rumors
Jonathan Feigen: Rockets guard Alexey Shved (left ankle sprain) is out Sunday. Ariza (left knee contusion), Harden (hamstring) and Howard (knee) probable. Twitter @Jonathan_Feigen
"One of the underrated pickups of the year I think will end up being their deal where they brought in Corey Brewer and Alexey Shved," Dave Joerger said. "That's right in their wheelhouse. Corey is a guy from right down the road (Portland, Tenn.) that I love a lot. I think he is going to help them, unfortunately. Alexey Shved is a good playmaker and a perfect fit for that system. I think that is a move that didn't draw the attention a Josh Smith will and Rajon Rondo and guys like that. Everybody's trying to load up." Houston Chronicle
On Friday he sent Alexey Shved to the Houston Rockets in exchange for the Rockets' 2015 second-round pick and Ronny Turiaf from the Minnesota Timberwolves and the rights to Spanish League player Sergei Lishouk. The Sixers will waive Turiaf. Lishouk, 32, will never make their roster. The team is expected to trade his rights at some point. Philadelphia Inquirer
Houston Rockets General Manager Daryl Morey announced today that the team has acquired forward Corey Brewer from the Minnesota Timberwolves and Alexey Shved from the Philadelphia 76ers as a part of a three-team trade. NBA.com
In the deal, the Rockets will send Troy Daniels to the Minnesota Timberwolves along with the Sacramento Kings 2015 2nd Round Pick (protected for picks 50-60), Houston's 2016 2nd Round Pick (protected for picks 31-45) and cash considerations. Houston will send its 2nd Round Pick and the rights to Serhiy Lishchuk to Philadelphia. Minnesota will send Corey Brewer to Houstonand Ronny Turiaf to Philadelphia. Philadelphia will convey Alexey Shved to Houston. NBA.com
The Minnesota Timberwolves today announced they have completed a three-team trade with Houston and Philadelphia in which they have acquired guard Troy Daniels, two second-round draft picks and cash considerations from the Houston Rockets. As part of the deal, the Wolves send guard/forward Corey Brewer to Houston and forward/center Ronny Turiaf to Philadelphia. Philadelphia sends guard Alexey Shved to Houston and receives Houston's 2015 second round pick and the rights to Serhiy Lishchuk. NBA.com
Jonathan Feigen: To sum it up: Rockets get Brewer, Shved; Philly gets Turiaf, Houston 2nd rounder, Lishouk rights; Minn gets Daniels, Sac 2nd rounder, future 2nd, $. Twitter @Jonathan_Feigen
Keith Pompey: #Sixers will waive Ronny Turiaf, who they received in today's three-team trade that sent Alexey Shved to Houston. Twitter
Adrian Wojnarowski: Sources: Three-way Corey Brewer deal taking shape: Ronny Turiaf to 76ers with a second-round pick. Sixers send Alexey Shved to Rockets. Twitter @WojYahooNBA
Jonathan Feigen: Can confirm @Adrian Wojnarowski report. Rockets send Turiaf, 2nd rounder, rights to Sergei Lishouk to Phil, get Alex Shved to complete Brewer deal. Twitter @Jonathan_Feigen
Philadelphia's Alexey Shved has hoped to continue his NBA career as an unrestricted free agent at season's end, but the Russian guard will instead strongly consider returning to Europe where he has received outlines for multi-million dollar offers, league sources told RealGM. RealGM
Nevertheless, Shved has lost enjoyment for his current situation due to low minutes. The 6-foot-6 product averaged nearly 23 minutes as a rookie, but just 10.5 per game a season ago. Despite being one of their most productive players this season, the 76ers have played Shved only 16.8 minutes a game. Before dealing Shved to the 76ers, the Minnesota Timberwolves scanned several other teams interested in him, including the Indiana Pacers, league sources said. If he ultimately returns to Europe as a free agent, Shved, 26, would recoup significant minutes and a lucrative offer comparable to, if not higher than, his NBA value. RealGM
The Sixers are, once, again without reserve point guards Tony Wroten [sprained right knee] and Alexey Shved [left hip flexor strain] in Saturday's game against the Detroit Pistons at The Palace of Auburn Hills. Coach Brett Brown said there's a chance Wroten could play in Wednesday's game at the Atlanta Hawks. "Just from listening to our medical people, it's seems that Tony is closer than Alexey," Brown said. Philadelphia Inquirer
With a fresh start in Philadelphia, Alexey Shved believes he will get more opportunities than he had in his two seasons with the Timberwolves. In a three-team trade in August, former Wolves players Shved and Luc Mbah a Moute went to the 76ers and Kevin Love went to Cleveland. In turn, the Wolves received Andrew Wiggins and Anthony Bennett from Cleveland and Thaddeus Young from the Sixers. "For me, it's much better because I can show my potential in the game," Shved said. St. Paul Pioneer Press
An NBA source said Shved has a chance for some minutes and that Mbah a Moute is also expected to stay, as opposed to being waived or bought out. Young, who makes $9.2 million, was likely to decline his $9.7 million player option next summer, making him an unrestricted free agent. This way, Hinkie gets something in return for Young. Bucks County Courier Times
Forward Andrei Kirilenko said Alex Shved will do better in Philadelphia because at this club it is more likely he'll get playing time on the court. "In Philadelphia he certainly will get his chance. (...) He knows how to play, we all know it. The only thing he hasn't had in the last year and a half is the trust of the coach and playing time," said Kirilenko. Championat.com

Hey there. Could you tell me what distro you are on, and if there is some unique way to detect it ? Usually there is a file in /etc, something like foo-release or foo_version, or sometimes just a command. Unless it is a from-scratch distro, of course.

N.J. Woodturners is a Chapter of the
American Asso. of Woodturners
Welcome to the web site for the New Jersey Woodturners association. Please enjoy your visit and feel free to contact us or come and visit us at one of our monthly meetings.
Important update
Hello all,
I just spoke to Duke Hemmer who is coordinating the exhibit at the West Orange JCC.
Duke told me that this exhibit has been POSTPONED UNTIL 2016, so if you already have pieces, great, but keep them home (or bring to "Show and Tell").
If you are working on a piece, also great, just bring it for a "Show and Tell" at the next club meeting. If you haven't started yet, relax, you now
have a full year to create something spectacular!
Just to reiterate, the JCC exhibit has been postponed into 2016.
Don't bring in any pieces for this unless they are just for our club "Show and Tell" purposes.
Stu Bauer - Corresponding Sec'y
Next Meeting - Jan. 26
New Year wishes and January Meeting Info
From Gil, myself and all of the NJ Woodturner's club officers, a very happy and healthy New Year to one and all. May it be productive and safe for all of us!
As mentioned at the last meeting and in the December Newsletter, we have been invited to display our work at the JCC (Jewish Community Center)
building - 760 Northfield Avenue, West Orange. Duke Hemmer is coordinating placing our work in display cases in their lobby exhibit area.
This is a high end venue which we have used before and is highly visible and has lots of visitors giving our work wide exposure. It is a great chance to
sell some of your pieces so let's take advantage of this offer. Bring any pieces you wish to display and/or sell to the January meeting!
Next -- If you have any tools, wood, books or magazines that you no longer are using, please consider donating them to the club for our monthly raffle.
Proceeds go to the club treasury which supports paying for our professional demonstrators and someone in the club gets to use your
unwanted item for a new purpose. A win-win for all!
And finally -- Bob Amarant has suggested that in addition to bringing tops for our "Top Top" contest each month, we should try a club challenge to
generate more turning excitement.
For this month, Bob suggested we get creative and make a lathe turned "carver's mallet" an example of which can be seen being made in this
short YouTube video: http://youtu.be/kV1jKCKoPAo
Looking forward to seeing everyone at our January 26th meeting where in addition to the above, we will be doing hands on top making and watching
demos on both top making and stick pens using common Bic refills.
Don't miss it!

Remembering Last Year's - 4th Annual Turners Exchange
Event Title: "A Splash of Color"
• Here are the RULES from last november:
YOUR CHOICE of form (bowl, plate, box, vase, etc.) with maximum diameter or height of - 8". At least ONE coloring embellishment. This can be a minimal area or cover the entire piece. Some enhancements include: painting (acrylic, oil, water color, spray, latex, etc.), dyeing (analine, metallic, leather, etc.), ink (India Ink, permanent markers, Prismacolor® pens, etc.), leafing (gold, metallic, etc.) or whatever else you can come up with!
This should be a lot of fun for everyone involved! Your "masterpiece" should be boxed and wrapped – anonymously! After all participants have opened their "gifts" the makers will then talk about their pieces ~ (think "Show and Tell").

.- A 16 year-old Argentine boy who suffers from chronic encephalopathy – a brain disorder – was moved by a letter from Pope Francis responding to a note that he had sent the pontiff a few days earlier.
The boy, Nicolas Marasco, is unable to speak, but was able to send a letter to Pope Francis, with the help of his parents, saying that he asks his guardian angel every night to watch over the Holy Father and assist him in his pontificate.
"Dear Francis, my name is Nicolas and I am 16. Since I am unable to write you (because I still cannot speak or walk), I asked my parents to do it for me, because they know me best," his letter said.
"I want to tell you that when I was seven years old, Father Pablo gave me First Communion at my school," he continued, "and this year, in November, I will receive confirmation – something which gives me great joy."
"Every night ever since you asked me, I pray to my guardian angel – whose name is Eusebio and who is very patient – to watch over you and help you. You can be sure that he is good at it because he watches over me and is with me every day."
"I would very much like to go see you and receive your blessing and a kiss, just that," the boy continued. "I send you many greetings and I continue praying to Eusebio to watch over you and give you strength. Love, Nico."
The Argentinean daily Clarin reported that Pope Francis was deeply moved by the letter from Nicolas.
He shared the story of the young boy during his visit to Assisi on Oct. 4, saying, "In this letter, in the heart of this boy, is beauty, love, the poetry of God. God who reveals himself to the simple hearted, the little ones, the humble ones, those who we often consider to be the last."
A few days later, Marasco received the Pope's answer, which was also published in Clarin.
"Dear Nicolas, thank you so much for your letter. Thank you so much for praying for me. Your prayers are helping me to do my work, which is to bring Jesus to the people," the Holy Father wrote. "For this reason, dear Nicolas, you are important to me."
"And I want to ask you a favor. Keep helping me with your prayers, and also keep praying to Eusebio, who is surely friends with my guardian angel, who also watches over me."
"Nicolas, thanks for your help," the Pope continued. "I am praying for you. May Jesus bless you and the Holy Virgin watch over you. Affectionately, and with my Blessing, Francis."
On Nov. 9, Marasco received the Sacrament of Confirmation, together with 16 of his classmates.
His mother, Marisa Mariani, told Clarin, "What has happened to us has made us realize that the simple things are what matter, a word of encouragement, someone who listens, someone who doesn't look the other way, as we sometimes experience out on the street."
