text:
A filesystem is a method for storing and organizing computer files and directories and the data they contain, making it easy to find and access them. If you are using a computer, you are most likely using more than one kind of filesystem. A filesystem can provided extended capabilities. It can be written as a wrapper over an underlying filesystem to manage its data and provide an enhanced, feature-rich filesystem (such as cvsfs-fuse, which provides a filesystem interface for CVS, or a Wayback filesystem, which provides a backup mechanism to keep old copies of data).
Before the advent of user space filesystems, filesystem development was the job of the kernel developer. Creating filesystems required knowledge of kernel programming and the kernel technologies (like vfs). And debugging required C and C++ expertise. But other developers needed to manipulate a filesystem -- to add personalized features (such as adding history or forward-caching) and enhancements.
Introducing FUSE
FUSE lets you develop a fully functional filesystem that has a simple API library, can be accessed by non-privileged users, and provides a secure implementation. And, to top it all off, FUSE has a proven track record of stability.
With FUSE, you can develop a filesystem as executable binaries that are linked to the FUSE libraries -- in other words, this filesystem framework doesn't require you to learn filesystem internals or kernel module programming.
When it comes to filesystems, the user space filesystem is not a new design. A sampling of commercial and academic implementations of user space filesystems include:
- LUFS is a hybrid user space filesystem framework that supports an indefinite number of filesystems transparently for any application. It consists of a kernel module and a user space daemon. Basically it delegates most of the VFS calls to a specialized daemon that handles them.
- UserFS allows user processes to be mounted as a normal filesystem. This proof-of-concept prototype provides ftpfs, which allows anonymous FTP with a filesystem interface.
- The Ufo Project is a global filesystem for Solaris that allows users to treat remote files exactly as if they were local.
- OpenAFS is an open source version of the Andrew FileSystem.
- CIFS is the Common Internet FileSystem.
Unlike these commercial and academic examples, FUSE brings the capabilities of this filesystem design to Linux. Because FUSE uses executables (instead of, say, shared objects as LUFS uses), it makes debugging and developing easier. FUSE works with both kernels (2.4.x and 2.6.x) and now supports Java™ binding, so you aren't limited to programming the filesystem in C and C++. (See Resources for more userland filesystems that use FUSE.)
To create a filesystem in FUSE, you need to install a FUSE kernel module and then use the FUSE library and API set to create your filesystem.
Unpack FUSE
To develop a filesystem, first download the FUSE source code (see Resources) and unpack the package:
tar -zxvf fuse-2.2.tar.gz
. This creates a FUSE directory with
the source code. The contents of the fuse-2.2 directory are:
- ./doc contains FUSE-related documentation. At this point, there is only one file, how-fuse-works.
- ./kernel contains the FUSE kernel module source code (which, of course, you don't need to know for developing a filesystem with FUSE).
- ./include contains the FUSE API headers, which you need to create a filesystem. The only one you need now is fuse.h.
- ./lib holds the source code to create the FUSE libraries that you will be linking with your binaries to create a filesystem.
- ./util has the source code for the FUSE utility library.
- ./example, of course, contains samples for your reference, like the fusexmp.null and hello filesystems.
Build and install FUSE
- Run the configure script from the fuse-2.2 directory:
. This creates the required makefiles, etc. - Run
to build the libraries, binaries, and kernel module. Check the kernel directory for the file ./kernel/fuse.ko -- this is the kernel module file. Also check the lib directory for fuse.o, mount.o, and helper.o. - Run
./make install
to complete the installation of FUSE.
Alternative: Skip this step if you want to install the module in the kernel yourself usinginsmod
. For example:/usr/local/sbin/insmod ./kernel/fuse.ko
or/sbin/insmod ./kernel/fuse.ko
. Remember to install the required module with root privileges.
You can do the above steps in just one step if you want. From the fuse-2.2
directory, run ./configure; make; make install;
Important: When making FUSE, you need to
have the kernel headers or source code in place. To keep things simple,
make sure that the kernel source code is in the /usr/src/ directory.
Customize the filesystem
Now let's create a filesystem so you can access your AFS space on a Linux box with latest kernel, using an older Linux kernel. You will have two processes: one server process running on a older Linux kernel, and the FUSE client process running on a Linux box with the latest kernel. Whenever a request comes to your FUSE client process, it contacts the remote server process. For communication purposes, this filesystem uses RX RPC code that is part of AFS, so you need to build OpenAFS. (Figure 1 gives an overview of this AFS filesystem.)
Figure 1. Overview of AFS-FUSE filesystem
Build OpenAFS
- Download the OpenAFS Linux sources and untar the source.
In the directory where you have untarred the source, run
./make ./configure --enable-transarc-paths
. If./configure
cannot understand the sysname for build, then use the--with-afs-sysname
option with the appropriate sysname.For a build on the Linux 2.4 kernel, use following command:
./configure --enable-transarc-paths --with-afs-sysname=i386_linux24
. - Run
, and then run./make dest
. Check for any errors during build.If the build went okay, then your AFS source tree is ready to work with. At this stage, you need to prepare a development directory named afsfuse. In that directory, create two more directories:
- The include directory will contain the include headers from OpenAFS and FUSE.
- The lib directory will contain the libraries from OpenAFS and FUSE.
- Copy the headers and libraries.
First copy the AFS headers from the OpenAFS directory by copying the directories and files from the dest\i386_linux24\include into the include directory. Then copy the FUSE headers from the fuse-2.2 directories into this directory. Repeat the same steps for libraries into the lib directory.
- Create the structure of the application.
You need two sets of files for two sets of processes. Name the client process files using the naming scheme afsfuse_client.*; name the server process files afsfuse_server.*.
You will thus have an afsfuse_client.c file that will contain the FUSE process code, an afsfuse_server.c file that will contain the server code for the process running on a remote box, a makefile, and an rxgen file for creating the RPC header (like afsfuse.xg).
The afsfuse_client.c file will create afsfuse_client process code that will be called by the FUSE filesystem to create your filesystem (use the example fuse-2.2/example/fusexmp.c to create this file).
Define necessary functions
To create a filesystem with FUSE, you need to declare a structure variable
of type fuse_operations
and pass it on to the
function. The fuse_operations
structure carries a pointer to functions that will be called when the
appropriate action is required. Listing 1 shows the
Listing 1. Necessary functions in fuse_operation structure
struct fuse_operations { int (*getattr) (const char *, struct stat *); int (*readlink) (const char *, char *, size_t); int (*getdir) (const char *, fuse_dirh_t, fuse_dirfil_t); int (*mknod) (const char *, mode_t, dev_t); int (*mkdir) (const char *, mode_t); int (*unlink) (const char *); int (*rmdir) (const char *); int (*symlink) (const char *, const char *); int (*rename) (const char *, const char *); int (*link) (const char *, const char *); int (*chmod) (const char *, mode_t); int (*chown) (const char *, uid_t, gid_t); int (*truncate) (const char *, off_t); int (*utime) (const char *, struct utimbuf *); int (*open) (const char *, struct fuse_file_info *); int (*read) (const char *, char *, size_t, off_t, struct fuse_file_info *); int (*write) (const char *, const char *, size_t, off_t,struct fuse_file_info *); int (*statfs) (const char *, struct statfs *); int (*flush) (const char *, struct fuse_file_info *); int (*release) (const char *, struct fuse_file_info *); int (*fsync) (const char *, int, struct fuse_file_info *); int (*setxattr) (const char *, const char *, const char *, size_t, int); int (*getxattr) (const char *, const char *, char *, size_t); int (*listxattr) (const char *, char *, size_t); int (*removexattr) (const char *, const char *); };
None of these operations are absolutely essential, but many are needed for
a filesystem to work properly. You can implement a full-featured
filesystem with the special-purpose methods .flush
, or .fsync
. (This article doesn't cover
any xattr
functions.) The functions shown in Listing 1 are as
getattr: int (*getattr) (const char *, struct stat *);
This is similar tostat()
. Thest_dev
fields are ignored. Thest_ino
field is ignored unless theuse_ino
mount option is given.readlink: int (*readlink) (const char *, char *, size_t);
This reads the target of a symbolic link. The buffer should be filled with a null-terminated string. The buffer size argument includes the space for the terminating null character. If the linkname is too long to fit in the buffer, it should be truncated. The return value should be "0" for success.getdir: int (*getdir) (const char *, fuse_dirh_t, fuse_dirfil_t);
This reads the contents of a directory. This operation is theopendir()
, ...,closedir()
sequence in one call. For each directory entry, thefilldir()
function should be called.mknod: int (*mknod) (const char *, mode_t, dev_t);
This creates a file node. There is nocreate()
will be called for creation of all non-directory, non-symlink nodes.mkdir: int (*mkdir) (const char *, mode_t);
rmdir: int (*rmdir) (const char *);
These create and remove a directory, respectively.unlink: int (*unlink) (const char *);
rename: int (*rename) (const char *, const char *);
These remove and rename a file, respectively.symlink: int (*symlink) (const char *, const char *);
This creates a symbolic link.link: int (*link) (const char *, const char *);
This creates a hard link to a file.chmod: int (*chmod) (const char *, mode_t);
chown: int (*chown) (const char *, uid_t, gid_t);
truncate: int (*truncate) (const char *, off_t);
utime: int (*utime) (const char *, struct utimbuf *);
These change the permission bits, owner and group, size, and access/modification times of a file, respectively.open: int (*open) (const char *, struct fuse_file_info *);
This is the file open operation. No creation or truncation flags (O_CREAT
) will be passed toopen()
. This should check if the operation is permitted for the given flags. Optionally,open()
may also return an arbitrary filehandle in thefuse_file_info
structure, which will be passed to all file operations.read: int (*read) (const char *, char *, size_t, off_t, struct fuse_file_info *);
This reads data from an open file.read()
should return exactly the number of bytes requested, except on EOF or error; otherwise, the rest of the data will be substituted with zeroes. An exception to this is when thedirect_io
mount option is specified, in which case the return value of theread()
system call will reflect the return value of this operation.write: int (*write) (const char *, const char *, size_t, off_t, struct fuse_file_info *);
This writes data to an open file.write()
should return exactly the number of bytes requested except on error. An exception to this is when thedirect_io
mount option is specified (as in theread()
operation).statfs: int (*statfs) (const char *, struct statfs *);
This gets filesystem statistics. Thef_type
fields are ignored.flush: int (*flush) (const char *, struct fuse_file_info *);
This represents flush-cached data. It is not equivalent tofsync()
-- it's not a request to sync dirty data.flush()
is called on eachclose()
of a file descriptor, so if a filesystem wants to return write errors inclose()
and the file has cached dirty data, this is a good place to write back data and return any errors. Since many applications ignoreclose()
errors, this is not always useful.
Note: The flush()
method may be called more
than once for each open()
. This happens if more than one file
descriptor refers to an opened file due to dup()
, or fork()
calls. It is not possible to
determine if a flush is final, so each flush should be treated equally.
Multiple write-flush sequences are relatively rare, so this shouldn't be a
release: int (*release) (const char *, struct fuse_file_info *);
This releases an open file.release()
is called when there are no more references to an open file -- all file descriptors are closed and all memory mappings are unmapped. For everyopen()
call, there will be exactly onerelease()
call with the same flags and file descriptor. It is possible to have a file opened more than once, in which case only the last release will count and no more reads/writes will happen on the file. The return value of release is ignored.fsync: int (*fsync) (const char *, int, struct fuse_file_info *);
This synchronizes file contents. If thedatasync
parameter is non-zero, then only the user data should be flushed, not the meta data.setxattr: int (*setxattr) (const char *, const char *, const char *, size_t, int);
getxattr: int (*getxattr) (const char *, const char *, char *, size_t);
listxattr: int (*listxattr) (const char *, char *, size_t);
removexattr: int (*removexattr) (const char *, const char *);
These set, get, list, and remove extended attributes, respectively.
The resulting filesystem
Your filesystem will look something like this:
afsfuse_client <--RX[RPC]--> afsfuse_server
The afsfuse_client will forward the filesystem calls passed to it to the afsfuse_server residing on a different machine. The afsfuse_server will service all the requests sent to it by the client and return the results to the client. It does all the jobs necessary. The mechanism used for RPC is RX. There is no caching involved for either data or metadata.
Define the RX RPC layer
Before going further, you need to define your RX RPC layer. To do that, create an .xg file for rxgen, to describe your proxy and stub code that will be linked with your afsfuse_client.c and afsfuse_server.c. Listing 2 shows how to create an afsfuse.xg file with the following contents:
Listing 2. Creating an afsfuse.xg file
#define MYMAXPATH 512 %#include <rx/rx.h> %#include </rx_null.h > %#define SAMPLE_SERVER_PORT 5000 %#define SAMPLE_SERVICE_PORT 0 /* i.e. user server's port */ %#define SAMPLE_SERVICE_ID 4 /* Maximum number of requests that will be handled by this service simultaneously */ /* This number will also be guaranteed to execute in parallel if no services' requests are being processed */ %#define SAMPLE_MAX 2 /* Minimum number of requests that are guaranteed to be handled immediately */ %#define SAMPLE_MIN 1 /* Index of the "null" security class in the sample service.

When defining the RX RPC layer, note these points:
- You've defined
, andmy_file_info
as a wrapper overstatfs
, andfuse_file_info
structures. These will be transformed over wire using the generated XDR code. (XDR, External Data Representation, allows data to be wrapped in an architecture-independent manner so data can be transferred between heterogeneous computer systems.) - You've defined nearly one function for every member of structure
with nearly the same parameters since the job of the afsfuse_client is just to take the calls from the FUSE filesystem and pass them on to the afsfuse_server. - You've hard-coded some values like
, which you should obtain from the system -- hard-coding was done for the sake of simplicity.
Create client and stub files
Next compile the afsfuse.xg file with rxgen to create client and stub
files. From the directory containing the source for your afsfuse_server
and afsfuse_client, run the command
openafs-1.2.13/i386_linux24/dest/bin/rxgen afsfuse.xg
. This
creates the following files:
- afsfuse.cs.c is the client stub code to be linked with the afsfuse_client.c.
- afsfuse.h is the header containing various definitions for your FUSE RX code.
- afsfuse.ss.c is the server stub code (proxy code) to be linked with your afsfuse_server code.
- afsfuse.xdr.c contains code to marshall the three structures you defined in your afsfuse.xg.
Now add some code to the afsfuse_client.c and afsfuse_server.c to do the real work. Most of the calls will look like this:
. Marshall the parameters and prepare for RPC. Call the afsfuse_server application over RX [RPC]. Demarshall the parameters. Copy the values to the formal parameters passed to this function.Our_call_in_afs_fuse_server()
. Demarshall the parameters. Call the local filesystem or AFS-specific functions. Marshall the parameters and prepare for RPC. Make the RX RPC call.
The afsfuse_client.c call looks like this:
int afsfuse_readlink(const char *path, char *buf, size_t size){ rx_connection *local& int ret& char *buffer = malloc (512)& memset(buffer,0,512)& memset(buf,0,size)& local = getconnection()& ret = rxc_rxc_readlink(local,path,512,&buffer) // rpc call relconnection(local)& strncpy(buf,buffer,512-1)& //<- demarshall the parametrs return ret& }
The afsfuse_server.c call looks like this:
Listing 3. afsfuse_server.c call
int rxc_rxc_readlink( struct rx_call *call, char * path, afs_uint32 size, char**data) { int ret& char lbuff[512] ={0}& translatePath(path,lbuff)& //<- make filesystem call *data = malloc(512)& res = readlink(lbuff, *data, 512-1)& if(res == -1) return -errno& (*data)[res] = '\0'& return 0& }
Similarly, you can add code in other functions to enhance your filesystem.
You still need to create a makefile to compile your code. Remember to
include the following options while compiling code for the afsfuse_client:
Listing 4. Generating the makefile to compile client code
SRCDIR=./ LIBRX=${SRCDIR}lib/librx.a LIBS=${LIBRX} ${SRCDIR}lib/liblwp.a #CC = g++ CFLAGS=-g -I. -I${SRCDIR}include -I${SRCDIR}include/fuse/ -DDEBUG ${XCFLAGS} -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -DFUSE_USE_VERSION=22 afsfuse_client: afsfuse_client.o afsfuse.xdr.o ${LIBS} bulk_io.o afsfuse.cs.o ${CC} ${CFLAGS} -o afsfuse_client afsfuse_client.o ${SRCDIR}lib/fuse/fuse.o ${SRCDIR}lib/fuse/mount.o ${SRCDIR}lib/fuse/helper.o ${SRCDIR}lib/fuse/fuse_mt.o bulk_io.o afsfuse.cs.o afsfuse.xdr.o ${LIBS} afsfuse_server: afsfuse_server.o afsfuse.xdr.o afsfuse.ss.o bulk_io.o ${LIBS} ${CC} ${CFLAGS} -o afsfuse_server afsfuse_server.o bulk_io.o afsfuse.ss.o afsfuse.xdr.o ${LIBS} #afsfuse_client.o: afsfuse.h #afsfuse_server.o: afsfuse.h bulk_io.o: ${CC} -c -g -I${SRCDIR}include bulk_io.c afsfuse.cs.c afsfuse.ss.c afsfuse.er.c afsfuse.h afsfuse.xdr.c: afsfuse.xg rxgen afsfuse.xg afsfuse.xdr.o: afsfuse.xdr.c ${CC} -c -g -I{SRCDIR}include afsfuse.xdr.c all: afsfuse_server afsfuse_client clean: rm *.o rm afsfuse_client rm afsfuse_server
Remember, you still need to use librx.a and liblwp.a to link to RX and LWP code for RX. And fuse/fuse.o, fuse/helper.o, and fuse/mount.o are the FUSE libraries you need to link your code to.
In this article, you've learned how to install FUSE and OpenAFS and how to use them to create and customize your own user space filesystem, a fully functional, stable filesystem in Linux that doesn't require you to patch or recompile the active kernel -- you don't even have to be a kernel module programmer. You've seen details of the two key concepts in enabling a FUSE filesystem: how to install and configure the FUSE kernel module and how to leverage the power of the FUSE libraries and APIs.

Northampton striker Alex Nicholls is recovering in hospital after suffering a double fracture of his left leg on Saturday.
Nicholls underwent surgery in the evening and the League Two club have said that the operation was a success.
Nichols sustained the injury scoring the opening goal when he was on the receiving end of a late lunge from John McCombe, which earned the stand-in Port Vale captain a straight red card.
"Alex Nicholls is recovering well in hospital after suffering a broken fibia and tibia," said a statement released by Northampton. "He underwent surgery on Saturday evening to have an intramedullary nail inserted into his tibia, and that operation was a success.
"He may need a skin graft later this week, but the doctors will need to assess the wound before deciding how to proceed.
"We would like to thank supporters of all clubs for their kind messages towards Alex that have been posted on our official Facebook page, we will make sure they are passed on to Alex."

DREAM Act Looks Short of 60 Votes for Cloture |
By: David Dayen Friday December 17, 2010 2:50 pm |
Before the DADT repeal vote on Saturday, the Senate will take up the DREAM Act. Both votes came up as a House amendment to a Senate amendment to a bill, so they only require one cloture vote, a motion to concur. If they invoke cloture with 60 votes, they would only need a simple majority after that, and Harry Reid will fill the amendment tree on the measures, so if something passes, it would look identical to what the House passed. With Senators Bennett and Lugar in the bag, a unified caucus would mean 60 votes. But given the nature of how the vote is being brought up, I think the overwhelmingly likely outcome is that it fails tomorrow.
Scott Brown Announces Support for Repealing "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" |
By: David Dayen Friday December 3, 2010 12:30 pm |
Bob Gates successfully convinced Brown on the implementation process, which should concern people a bit, especially as Gates might not be around to do the implementation. Gates did say that he would not "slow-walk" things, but what about his successor? What if a President Palin reaches office without implementation in place, and she just never certifies it? I don't know if that's likely, but it's something to watch.
Dozens of Democrats Come Out Against Social Security Cuts, Even Those in Tough Races |
By: David Dayen Thursday August 19, 2010 12:40 pm |
While Mike Allen's anonymous win-the-day sources tell him that the Obama Administration would welcome a deal in the cat food commission around Social Security to "establish credibility with the markets" (with 10-year bond yields at a rock-bottom 2.56%, I'd say the credibility has been established), others in the Democratic coalition are slowly drawing a line in the sand against any cuts to Social Security benefits. This includes members in some of the most hard-fought seats in the country in November.
Levin Wants DADT Repeal in Defense Authorization Bill; Needs 15 Votes in Committee |
By: David Dayen Wednesday May 12, 2010 12:45 pm |
Carl Levin is giving his word – he will try to put a repeal of the military's Don't Ask Don't Tell policy in the defense authorization bill, perhaps as soon as this month. However, he will need the 15 votes on the Senate Armed Services Committee necessary to make it stick.
Sanchez Returns to Washington, Likely a Yes Vote; UPDATE: Cooper Voting Yes, Donnelly in Agreement, 216 in Hand |
By: David Dayen Sunday March 21, 2010 4:18 pm |
as a news peg, let me show you Loretta Sanchez' tweet from the well of the House:
Looking forward to casting my vote on this historic health care bill! House is currently set to vote around 11pm EST.
I think a "No" vote after that statement would be, well, odd. So she's a yes.
New Whip Count, With Changes To Reflect The Stupak Bloc |
By: David Dayen Saturday March 20, 2010 9:15 am |
(see the update)
OK, so NRO has not always been right (understatement of the year), but they claim that Stupak told their sources that he's "finished with Pelosi" and the enrollment corrections bill is dead. So I've taken a second look at the numbers to reflect what we know, and the challenge facing the Democratic leadership.
DeFazio's Objections Could Set Off Other Members |
By: David Dayen Friday March 19, 2010 11:35 am |
I don't take Peter DeFazio's carping about the health care bill entirely seriously. But his substantive argument – that Democratic leaders took out a Medicare reimbursement measure that would have changed geographic disparities – could shift other members of the caucus: "Unless they put that back in, I can't support it," Defazio said, referring to [...]
New Health Care Whip Count:
By: David Dayen Friday March 19, 2010 8:00 am |
We're going to start to see this firm up, and we can focus attention on the last holdouts. We can determine if all those No-Yes flippers can offset the Stupak bloc, and if enough of them can get peeled off, that's basically what it's come down to. But there still may be some surprises.
New Health Care Whip Count: 189 Yes, 202 No |
By: David Dayen Thursday March 11, 2010 1:34 pm |
That looks like a major departure from my last whip count. That's because there's been a major development. House leaders have given up on trying to please Bart Stupak and will try to pass a bill without him and his bloc.

Springtime is rolling round once again and this season models at Belfast Fashionweek and Hollywood actresses swapped the autumn winter brocades for floral prints.
Floral prints always remind me of Thomas Gradgrind in Hard Times, who chastised a pupil for approving of flowers on a carpet, but who could be annoyed at these pretty prints?
From big bold flowers to subtle spring colours - or my personal favourite of mixed fabrics - floral designs were seen on the Spring/Summer runways around the world, and now it's Belfast's turn.
The upcoming Belfast Fashionweek is for the shopper, not the retailer - that means what you see on the catwalk is what's on trend at that time.
But before next month's shows, big screen actresses embraced flowers in their own red carpet dresses.
With Nicole Kidman and Sally Field donning prints and embellishments, at this week's Screen Actors Guild awards, actresses showed peonies and petal blossoms are not just a young woman's game.
Bridesmaids star Rose Byrne opted for a pastel gown from the Valentino Resort 2013 collection.
Paired with a statement cocktail ring and bright pink lipstick, the floor-length ruffled dress was one of the most feminine gowns at the awards show.
Byrne's dress has divided critics and if you're not quite ready to go all out in florals, Sally Field's look could be more up your street.
The 66-year-old actress, who appeared on the red carpet with her Lincoln co-star Daniel Day Lewis, looked beautiful in a lilac J Mendel number with floral appliqué on the waistband. Her choice was age appropriate and really on trend.
Sally is absolutely timeless, I don't think she's aged at all past the early 1990s and I'm dying to find out how she got time to stand still.
Some of Hollywood's younger actresses got in on the floral game too, with Modern Family's Ariel Winter looking every inch a princess in her peach Alex Perry dress. It's a really youthful gown that definitely has a cut-off age, but if you're 14 and at the SAGs, why not?
If you shy away from pastels, monochrome petals, such as the Chanel Haute Couture number worn by Julianne Moore, may be a better option.
There may have been questions over the fit of her gown, but Moore's simply cut dress was beautifully embellished from the waist down with flowers. And what better accessory than diamonds and the Best Actress gong...
Nicole Kidman went all out in navy sparkles with as she handed out an award to Tommy Lee Jones at the LA event.
Her Vivienne Westwood Couture gown was extremely form-fitting and not for the faint of heart - especially with its illusion netting.
But florals are not just for fancy awards show, as the models at the spring/summer launch of Belfast Fashionweek showed.
They tapped into this season's key trends of floral and there were neon accents, as bright blouses were teamed with printed trousers.
"Key looks this season include pretty pastels, striking stripes, flirty florals and eye catching graphic prints," said Cathy Martin, director of Belfast Fashionweek.
"In terms of colours it's all about the bright neons, monochrome and also white and neutrals are big for spring/summer too."
The launch gave a preview of what's to come this Fashionweek, which kicks off on 21 March. Shows will range from local designers and chic boutiques to high street fashion, so there's something on trend at every price. This year it's moved to the Ulster Museum at Belfast's Botanic Gardens, where the minimalist interior will be transformed into fashionista heaven.
For now, I've got my money on a pair of ankle-length tapered trousers - in floral print, of course!

There's little doubt in anybody's mind that The War Z's design document consists of a lot of cribbed notes from Day Z and World War Z, but after seeing the screenshots above, we're not sure if we care. At all.
Calling your zombie MMO "The War Z" is basically equivalent to making an FPS called Ron Clancy's Call of Honor: Battlefield, and it's gameplay sounds similarly "me too." There's an optional Day Z-esque hardcore mode with permadeath, and these appear to be "infected" rather than zombies in the traditional sense.
Here's a list of features that they've already announced:
Our friends at PC Gamer were quick to point out that these features don't mention what gameplay style the game will incorporate. Will this be a real-time shooter ala Day Z? Or will this be a more traditional MMO with pseudo turn-based combat. This is perhaps the biggest detail yet unknown about the game.
It's being undertaken by Hammerpoint Interactive, a new developer. That last point is a sobering fact for us. On one hand, mother of pearl, just look at those screenshots. We want that game now. On the other hand, any MMO is a huge and risky undertaking for a new dev (just ask 38 Studios and Big Huge Games).
As of right now we're cautiously optimistic about this new title. We'll just have to wait and see. Or you can sign up for the beta, and find out sooner than everyone else.

What Are Words For?
Last night Madeleine was looking out the window into our neighbors yard.
Mom, the Smiths have three grills. Why do you think they have three grills?
I dont know, I said. I was messing around with my cell phone trying to figure out how to turn off the vibrating-alert feature and get it to go back to plain old ringing.
Three girls? Linnea asked her sister, What do you mean?
I dont know why they have three of them. What do you do with three of them?
Maybe ones kosher, the other nonkosher and the thirdoh, I dont know . . .
Atheist, Madeleine finished.
Right, I said.
Wait, thats not right. They dont have three of them, Linnea said impatiently.
Yes, they do, I said, Maddys right. I saw them.
Well, I thought they had two sons and a daughter, Linnea said.
So? They do. Madeleine asked, irritated the way only older sisters can be. But what does that have to do with anything?
Well, Linnea said, defensive the way only younger sisters can be, then they dont have three daughters if theyve only got one daughter.
I looked up to see Madeleine look at Linnea as if she couldnt believe they shared the same gene pools.
Yes. And your point?
Linnea sighed, stood her ground, Then why did you said that the Smiths have three girls if they only have two sons and a daughter?
I didnt say they have three girls! Madeleine exclaimed. I said they have three grills!
They do? Linnea asked, What do they need with three grills?
At that point the vibrating-alert feature on my cell phone started vibrating and I picked up the call.
But nobody was there.
At least, I didnt think anybody was there.
But then I heard a voice saying O? O? Issss O air?
Hello? I said, Its Jo.
Hello. Im looking for Jo?
Yes, I said, Its me. Jo.
There was silence. Maybe Id said the wrong thing.
Jo? Is that you?
I started walking toward the living room. Linnea and Madeleine were still talkingloudlyabout the Smiths three grills.
Yes, I said, Can you hear me now?
Im getting you in the middle of something? You want to call me later?
No, I said, Im not in the middle of anything. The girls are talking about our neighbors grills . . .
Youre putting caulking on the sills?
No. No. The girls are talking. Its nothing.
There are lots of quotes about failures to communicate.
In fact, What we have here is a failure to communicate is probably the best one.
Ive also always liked the T-shirt that said, My wife says I never listen to her. At least, I think thats what she says.
And then theres that classic line from the Richard Thompson song, When I thought she was saying good luck, she was saying good-bye.
If you think about it long enough, its pretty amazing that we ever really understand each other at all. Because there are lots of failures to communicate.
Such as last week when, before going away for a few days to write, I called my editor and left a message on his machine telling him I wouldnt be writing the column that week because I was going away to write.
Then, when I got back into towna day past my deadlinemy editor called.
Well. Jo? he said.
Oh, Steve, hi, I said, I bet you think I forgot all about your stove.
Im buying my editors old stove.
The stove? No! The column. Where is it?
The column? I said, What column? Didnt you get my message?
What message?
The one I left you Tuesday night to say I wouldnt be writing the column this week.
Only, as it happened, the voice mail at Metrolands offices malfunctioned on that Tuesday night and nobodys messages got through.
What we had was a failure to communicate.
Those five nights I was away, writing, I had no cell-phone service. I hadnt planned on that. My cell phone usually sits by my right hand like some kind of demigod, poised to summon or be summoned with the press of a button.
Being without my cell phone was not the end of the world. I had a landline. I had a calling card for outgoing callsno one had the number to make any incoming ones.
And it was kind of exotic not to be able to use the cell phone. It meant that when I made the 10-mile run to the nearest grocery store for a box of Alpen, some double-A batteries and Q-tips, I couldnt narrate every twist and turn of the road to any poor fool who loved me enough to listen.
It meant I had to sit down when I did make a call since the phone was attached by a cord to a box that was attached by another cord to a jack in the wall. Fancy that, having to sit still on the phone!
Maybe most significantly it meant that when I was writing, I was writing. I even spent a couple of days lying on my belly in a field in the sunshine, hand-editing an old manuscript, my laptop back in the cottage, my cell phone packed away.
Of course, now that Im back in town, my cell phone is back at my right hand, my earpiece snagging in the buttons on my sweater, my vibrating-alert option making a ruckus against the car keys in my pocketbook. It may be my editor calling to ask about the column. Or the stove. Or even one of my neighbors grills.

Adelio's Contracting Co specializes in basement waterproofing, sewer cleaning and sewer repair in Northeast Ohio suburbs in Cuyahoga, Lake and Geauga counties. The family owned company has been in business for 35 years and has gravitated its business primarily to cities in the Heights area.
Sal Sidoti founded his eponymous HVAC company in 1967, driven by the desire to provide top-notch workmanship with no strings attached. In the 45 years since, Sal has recruited a corps of technicians who possess encyclopedic knowledge of every make and model of HVAC equipment. 24 hours a day, these professionals field calls, dishing quotes and dispatching crews to perform basic maintenance or emergency repairs. The crews install, clean, and inspect heating and cooling units to keep homes operating at comfortable temperatures or at the temperature required for authentic reenactments of the first ice age. Technicians can also perform minor plumbing services, such as toilet installations or leaky faucet repairs.
The efficiency experts at WeatherKing Heating and Air Conditioning drag domestic climate systems into the digital age with high-tech gadgetry. WeatherKing's techs, armed with meticulous training and science, deploy to homes to help clients work out cost-effective, convenient ways to keep living spaces comfortable. Rather than outright replacing furnaces, air conditioners, or barbecue pits filled with old newspaper, techs take the time to run through options that might include introducing an existing furnace to a touchscreen thermostat that's synced with WiFi to monitor energy output.
The staff also keeps homeowners breathing easy. Duct cleaning seeks out and eradicates mold and allergens stationed in vents, and heat-recovery ventilators purify musty in-home air, redirecting it back into the heating system and recycling up to 84% of otherwise wasted energy. The company's motto—"We treat you the way we want our own family to be treated"—undergirds each of its services. To this end, dispatchers man phones 24 hours a day, at the ready to send out crews to replace furnaces, subdue burst pipes, or disperse the gang of mermen that have taken over the guest bathroom.
Just as doctors keep instrumental parts of the body healthy, the Gillece Services team keeps essential components of the home working safely and efficiently. Instead of working on hearts and brains, though, the company's steady-handed technicians operate on heating, cooling, plumbing, and electrical units.
Their commitment to customer satisfaction stems from founder Tom Gillece, who started the business in 1980 and has since integrated his son Tom Gillece, Jr. into a leadership role. In the company's more than three decades, the team, under the Gillece family's guidance, has made urgency a top priority. That means they're available when needed most, including on weekends, on holidays, and during breakups. Gillece Services also aspires to make a positive impact on its community and on the world; the company even sent one of its plumbers on a relief mission to Haiti after the earthquake in 2010.

The Triad RF-15 Follow Focus is a gearless device that attaches to a DSLR shoulder-mount or tripod rig by way of its standard 15mm rod mounts. The RF-15 uses a horizontal adjustment to make contact with your wide or mid-range telephoto lens. Instead of purchasing and installing a separate gear ring for each lens in your kit, simply adjust the horizontal element of the RF-15 to match the diameter of your lens. The friction between the follow focus and the lens's focus ring is sufficient to enable the operator to pull accurate focus smoothly. The wheel that you operate is markable so that you can repeat focus-pulling moves.
- With its integrated 15mm rod mount, the RF-15 mounts to any shoulder-mount or tripod-based rig that employs standard 15mm rods
- Modular system – compatible with other Triad products and those from other manufacturers
- Made in Japan

.- Four Colombian bishops traveled to Havana, Cuba, this weekend to participate in talks between leaders of the National Liberation Army (ELN) and the Colombian government.
The delegation included Bishop Jaime Prieto Amaya of Barrancabermeja; Bishop Leonardo Gómez Serna of Magangue; Bishop Ricardo Tobón Restrepo of Sonsón-Rionegro and Bishop Julio Enrique Prado Bolaños of Pasto.
Bishop Prieto said the purpose of the trip was "to be present and encourage this peace process that is beginning and to provide a sense of continuity to the talks."
"We are hopeful," he added. "In this second round that has been meticulously prepared by the ELN and by civil society it appears that some doors are opening towards a more concrete and operative agenda," Bishop Prieto stated.
The ELN was founded in 1964 and is the second largest guerilla force in the country, after the Armed Revolutionary Forces of Colombia (FARC), with a membership of 5,000.1 | |

Album Rating: 3.0Waaay too much spelling errors :O Even I make less errors and English is my second language...
Album Rating: 4.0Could use a better language and details. On top of that, how many reviews does this still need?
Digging: Marilyn Manson - The Pale Emperor
Album Rating: 2.5I wish I still liked this album like I used to, since it was the one that inspired me to search for more extreme music. listening now though, some of the songs here are just god-awful
Album Rating: 2.0 | Sound OffI just never understood everyone's hate for this band, their not bad While they still used "dark" lyrics to try to be "dark", the album actually presents a dark atmosphere Also, learn how to use commas correctly.
Album Rating: 2.5amazingly average
"While they still used "dark" lyrics to try to be "dark", the album actually presents a dark atmosphere" that's one awkward sentence
Digging: Deadguy - Screamin' With the Deadguy Quintet

Digging: The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds
"Don't agree with your opinion, BUT BECAUSE ITS A GOOD REVIEW IM GOING TO POS! See how i posd because its a good review and not negged because i dislike the album! " see decay, you thinking this is a good review is probably what makes yours so shit. this is not a good review at all
Album Rating: 2.0How can you possibly think this is a good review, Decaying? No offence to the writer, but damn, dude? How fucked up is you?
Album Rating: 4.0"I just never understood everyone's hate for this band" neither do I
Album Rating: 2.5I don't understand the overall hate, vol. 3 and s/t are really good records. it's just this and AHIG that are pretty sub par

Pasta with Chicken, Pancetta and Vegetables Reviews
Bon Appétit | December 1999
The Regent Grand Spa, The Resort at Summerlin, Las Vegas, NV
reviews & comments (11)
Used what I had on hand&leftovers of roasted chicken and I substituted eggplant for pepper. (think that was a good choice.) Also served with couscous to soak up the liquids. The flavors were good. Not over the moon but a good cold night/week night stew using things I already had on hand.
This was easy enough. I made a quick roux to thicken the broth. But I guess I expected the recipe to be greater than the sum of its parts. It wasn't. Kinda tastes like chicken noodle soup.
My guests loved this!! I served this on plates, so added a bit of Mexican Crema to thicken the sauce a bit. Next time, I will leave the Crema out, and use the suggestion to serve in bowls and use bread to mop up the broth.
I made one change that I really think saves this dish, I substituted mushrooms for the bell pepper. This really pulled together the sauce. Delicious.
Not too bad but needs some work. I used garlic chicken broth and used alot more pancetta and garlic. I think it would be great without the chicken broth; instead cook the chicken first and toss with a white sauce.
This recipe sounded much better than it actually tasted. It was rather bland and soupy and wasn't worth the effort.

Howard Bancorp, Inc. Receives Preliminary Approval For $12.5 Million Of SBLF Capital
Howard Bancorp, Inc. (OTC, Electronic Bulletin Board: HBMD), the parent company of Howard Bank, today announced that it has received preliminary approval to receive an investment of up to $12.5 million in the Company's preferred stock from the United States Department of the Treasury under the Small Business Lending Fund (the "SBLF"). The SBLF is a program created by the US Treasury exclusively for qualifying community banks and is intended to encourage small business lending by providing Tier 1 capital to those qualified banks at favorable rates.
In connection with the investment, the Company will use $6.3 million of the SBLF funds to redeem all of the outstanding shares of preferred stock issued to the Treasury under the Capital Purchase Program. The resulting net increase of up to approximately $6.2 million of additional capital will allow Howard Bancorp to support its continued growth.
Subject to review of the SBLF documentation and final due diligence by the Treasury, the Company expects to seek the full amount of the approved investment. Closing is expected to occur within approximately 30 days.
Chairman and CEO Mary Ann Scully noted: "The small business lending targeted by the SBLF program represents a significant portion of Howard Bank's existing loan portfolio, as well as being the primary focus of our projected growth. This capital will bolster our increased lending to the small to medium sized businesses in the Greater Baltimore marketplace and we look forward to continuing to support local businesses as they successfully navigate through these difficult economic times. In addition, the increased capital enhances our already strong balance sheet and our regulatory capital ratios, which are already well in excess of required minimums."

Hey ppl,
Decided to give HCT a try. I been lifting for a while but not on a scheduled program, so here we go.
As for my diet, its solid, little fats and high in protein.
My supplements? I will be experimenting. Month 1, I will try At large nutritions, nitrean, creatine, and nitor for energy and fat loss.
The 2nd month Im going to try superpump 250 (pre), paired with nitrean (after).
And my 3rd month I will try Tribulis also paired with some cheapy whey I got from Wally World.
Any suggestions, would be great. My goals are simple, gain muscle, lose fat, Im not on a cut or bulk, and I dont really care where my weight goes, but heres my stats:
Bench - 170lbs
Squat- 170lbs
Dead - 250lbs

* TheDanza: Heather is named after the actress who voiced her. Her last name is not given in the credits, giving an impression of the [[CharacterAsHimself character as herself]], to the point that early promotional materials had her character name listed using the actress' full one -- Heather Morris. Justified in that listing Heather's ''real'' last name [[spoiler:-- Mason (as in, [[SilentHill1 Harry]]'s daughter) --]] would have [[InterfaceSpoiler spoiled a fairly significant plot point]] that comes about halfway through the game.
* HeyItsThatVoice: The HD Collection.
** Heather is [[BlueSeed Momiji]] and [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Rei]].
** Vincent is [[Manga/{{Naruto}} Sasuke]], [[Anime/CodeGeass Suzaku]], and [[WesternAnimation/Ben10AlienForce Ben]].
** Claudia is [[VideoGame/{{Catherine}} Catherine]], [[Manga/FullmetalAlchemist Lust]], [[Manga/{{Bleach}} Halibel]], and [[VampireKnight Maria]].

Double Column Drop Down Menu Needed
New Guy who searched forum and couldn't find answer. I have a 47 group drop down menu that gets cut off half way for a 600 x 800 resolution. It's the "Animal" link at http://www.4switchplates.com/switchplates.html . Rather than have Animals A-I and Animals J-Z is there a way to showcase all the Animal Groups in one drop down list without having customers scroll down the page. I'm thinking a two column list rather than shrinking the font size. Here is the current code:

Check here for some double combo scripts that might work. You could have one dropdown with categories and the second with the animals that belong to that category.

how about using a table
Just thinking about this...
Have a table.
1. a one option drop down box which is visible onblur,
which shows the selected option
2. a table which is visible onfocus of the drop down box
which is a two or more column table.
and use the onClick event for each cell to update
the field within drop down box (#1).
So when you click on the dropdown box, you hide it,
and change the table to be visible, this would make
it appear like a drop down multi column table.
When your click event happens, you move the information
into select list 1, hide table 2, make select list 1 visible again.
and make focus() some other field or just window.
You could have multiple columns with this method of any amount

Speaking of which, Twila and Dolly are discussing strategy. Twila is talking about what happens when it comes down to five women. "And the girls go," Dolly agrees, which is like one of her charges at home suggesting to her, "Try the mutton." Dolly interviews that Twila wants to feel like part of a majority, since the younger members had agreed to vote her out if they'd gone to Tribal Council first. But now, Dolly observes, it has become generally realized that Eliza is the most expendable person. The closed captioning quotes her as saying something about Ted Williams, but the closed captioning also says "YACHLT," so I don't know how credible it is. Twila, meanwhile, interviews that she, Ami, Scout, and Leann all plan to vote for Eliza, and that if they can get Dolly on their side, it's a done deal. Twila and Dolly not only agree to ally, they pinky-swear on it. Pinky-swear, people.
Commercials. And volcano! Bat! Skull on a stick! Hey, what the hell went down during that break, anyway? Sadly, nothing, because everyone at Lopevi appears to have the same head on his shoulders with which he arrived. Rory and Chad retrieve the tree mail, and the Survivor poet laureates have really outdone themselves today. It's the traditional poorly rhymed, poorly scanned crap, but in this case it sounds like something that could apply to any challenge at all. It does serve to remind them of the Spirit Stone that they "won" at the arrival ceremony by not letting it default to the women. Rory explains that the Spirit Stone was supposed to bring luck, but "We haven't won immunity yet." Yes, they're 0 for 1 on immunity challenges. That's quite a losing streak. Chad interviews that they've been "neglecting" the stone, but that maybe things will go better for them if they "give it more respect." Meanwhile, we're seeing footage of the men tying the stone to the end of an eight- or nine-foot pole and planting the pole in the beach. Stone side up, in case that wasn't clear. They've literally put the Spirit Stone up on a pedestal. Immediately it begins raining. Rory tells us that he doesn't know if it's "sick timing," but the fact that rain came out of nowhere after they mounted the stone leads him to believe that "there's magic on Vanuatu." Okay. Or maybe there's just a pissed-off Judeo-Christian deity who wants to remind his boys about a little thing he likes to call the First and Second Commandments. The CBS promo department makes a note to send Rory a nice little gift basket.

While I don't like the loudness issues with most modern music, sometimes
highly compressed dynamics are expected with certain kind of music. Not
superior, but just "correct" to the ears of listeners that expect it. I

better and healthy orange juice, it is quite possible that the person
will be highly dissapointed. There is no point to argue which one is
better, that person does not want something better, he wants a beer.
