From the Publisher - Ten Years of <citetitle>Linux Journal</citetitle>
First, I have some questions that need answers. Actually, we probably will never get the answers, but I find them interesting to think about:
At what point did Microsoft spend more on bad-mouthing Linux than all Linux vendors combined spend on marketing?
When will the number of installed copies of Linux exceed the number of legally installed copies of Microsoft OSes?
When will the number of installed copies of Linux exceed the number of total installed copies of Microsoft OSes?
Notice that I say when, not if. This will happen. It may happen last in the United States, but the combination of Linux maturing and the world economy dictates that this will happen. All of us have an opportunity to make this happen faster.
By the time you read this, I probably will be in Nicaragua helping get some Linux classes started. These are not classes for systems administrators or even computer users. The average person will have never used a computer before and currently makes about $3/day working in a cigar factory. This is not the profile of people that Microsoft is interested in marketing to, but they are typical future new computer users. This is my current path; you don't have to pick this same path. You simply can use Linux and set an example.
Another good approach is to help someone convert to Linux. For example, my neighbor does computer consulting. All his customers run Microsoft software, but they are getting pretty irritated by worms and viruses. Most of them run typical office software, including word processor, spreadsheet and e-mail, so it is the perfect time to offer them an alternative.
Although Linux certainly has become mainstream, it still has a great distance to go before we can claim a World Domination success story. If you are a Linux Journal reader, you are likely ahead of the crowd. Put a little effort into getting that crowd moving in the right direction, and we can reach World Domination long before Linux Journal is 20.
Looking beyond Linux, we also need to look at how what has happened with Linux is a template for what can happen in other areas. In mid-2003, we started our WorldWatch site as an experiment (worldwatch.linuxgazette.com). We saw the need for a worldview of what was happening with Linux and open-source software from a social, political and economic point of view. What happened made WorldWatch Editor Willy Smith realize that we needed to tie together free, libre and open-source software (FLOSS) with similar efforts in other areas. One of the best examples is what we called Open Source seeds. That is, seeds that actually can reproduce rather than the genetically engineered ones that have to be purchased from the patent holder.
This revelation resulted in our creation of a new Web site, A42 (www.a42.com). The Linux-related technical side of what WorldWatch was will be appearing on Linux Gazette (www.linuxgazette.com). A42 is going to be where we try to tie together the whole open-source revolution—whether it applies to computers or not. In order to remain sane, A42 will take a light-hearted approach.
So, let's just say Linux moving toward World Domination is well on the way, and I feel comfortable enough it will happen that I am going to go further out on a limb this time and say that Open Everything is the real goal. Hasta pronto.

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.

text: SCHOOL OF CHEMICAL & BIOMOLECULAR ENGINEERING Curriculum Information for the Class of 2011 and thereafter The program in chemical & biomolecular engineering begins with a foundation in mathematics, chemistry, biology, and physics. These fundamentals are used to develop the analytical tools of chemical & biomolecular engineering - fluid mechanics, chemical thermodynamics, and chemical kinetics - in the sophomore and junior years. Chemical process units - such as chemical reactors, bioreactors, distillation columns, and heat exchangers - are analyzed with these tools, beginning in the junior year. In the senior year you design chemical processes by integrating process units with regard to economics, safety, and environmental impact. This program will prepare you for professional practice in traditional areas of chemical & bio- molecular engineering - chemicals, polymers, petroleum, utilities, pharmaceuticals, and foods - as well as emerging areas of biotechnology, microchemical systems, and electronic materials. The Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering curriculum requires more chemistry than other engineering programs. Prospective majors must plan their program carefully so that they will complete two years of chemistry before their junior year. If you are unsure whether you will major in chemical & biomolecular engineering, you are advised to take the required chem- istry. Otherwise you may have to take chemistry during the summer to complete the curriculum in four years. Every student must complete one of the six following options in biology: (1) Biomolecular Engineering - CHEME 2880, (2) Advanced Placement - a score of 5 on the CEEB AP exam or a score of 7 on the IB Higher Level exam, (3) four credits of a pre-med biology sequence; BIOG 1101+1103, BIOG 1102+1104, BIOG 1105, BIOG 1106, BIOG 1107, or BIOG 1108, (4) microbiology - BIOMI 2900 (3 credits), (5) biochemistry - BIOBM 3300 (4 credits) - academic year, or BIOBM 3330 (4 credits) - summer session, or (6) biochemistry - BIOBM 3310 (3 credits) and BIOBM 3320 (2 credits). Freshman Year Chemistry Chem 2090-2080 is the standard freshman chemistry sequence for students with no advanced placement (AP) credit. If you have AP credit for Chem 2090 you need not take chemistry your first semester. Because Chemical & Biomolecular Engineers take Chem 2080 (or Chem 2160) they are not required to take Phys 2214. If you have a good chemistry background you can try the more aggressive sequence, Chem 2150-2160. The syllabus for Chem 2150 is not the same as the syllabus for Chem 2090 and the syllabus for Chem 2160 is not the same as the syllabus for Chem 2080. If you choose to start with Chem 2150, it is awkward to switch to the typical sequence (Chem 2080) in the spring semester. We recommend that you attempt Chem 2150-2160 only if you already have AP credit for Chem 2090. If you have a strong chemistry background and your AP credit has created vacancies in your schedule, you can take organic chemistry as a freshman. Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering students typically take Chem 3570 with the Chem 2510 laboratory in the fall semester of their junior year. But some upper class students report that they were adequately prepared to complete Chem 3570 and Chem 2510 their first semester. Biology If your schedule permits, you may wish to fulfill the biology requirement in your freshman year. Sophomore Year Applying for Affiliation You may apply for affiliation with the School of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering during the fall semester of your sophomore year by submitting an Application for Major Affiliation to the School's undergraduate office, 120 Olin Hall. The School will approve your application if you satisfy the criteria set by the College and the School. The College requires that you have completed pertinent portions of the common curriculum (for example, Math 2930, CS 1112 , Phys 1112, and an EngrI course) by the end of your third semester and have a cumulative GPA of at least 2.0. The School requires no more than one grade below C in chemistry, mathematics, physics, or engineering courses, a GPA of at least 2.2 in chemistry, mathematics, physics, and engineering courses, and a semester GPA of at least 2.0, and that you complete EngrD 2190. Chemistry You need to take physical chemistry during your sophomore year because two required courses in the junior year - ChemE 3130 and ChemE 3900 - require material from physical chemistry. The required physical chemistry courses are Chem 3890-3900 and the laboratory course Chem 2900. Pre-med students are advised to take the Chem 3570-3580 (or Chem 3590-3600) organic lecture sequence and Chem 2510 laboratory, because some medical schools require eight credits of organic chemistry. Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering Enrollment in EngrD/ChemE 2190, Mass and Energy Balances, is required to apply for affiliation with chemical & bio- molecular engineering. It is offered only in the fall semester and can be counted as an engineering distribution. ChemE 3230, Fluid Mechanics, must be completed in the spring semester of the sophomore year. Engineering Distribution The Major requires Chem 3890; we recommend that you count Chem 3890 as an engineering distribution. EngrD/ChemE 2190 and an Introduction to Engineering course will satisfy your other two distributions. Mathematics Sophomores must be enrolled in (or have already completed) Math 2930 to apply for affiliation with chemical & bio- molecular engineering in the fall semester and must be enrolled in (or have already completed) Math 2940 to apply for affilia- tion with chemical & biomolecular engineering in the spring semester. Students affiliated with Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering may substitute either CEE 3040 - Uncertainty Analysis in Engineering - or EngrD 2700 - Basic Engineering Probability and Statistics - for Math 2940. Approved and Major-Approved Electives An approved elective is any course that meets an educationally sound objective. An approved elective must be approved by your academic advisor. You may take an approved elective in any semester, but you will find it difficult to do so in your first three semesters unless you have AP credit or you attend summer school. Chem 2080 usually serves as one of the two approved electives. Major-approved electives are intended to build on the foundation of fundamentals taken in one's first two years. Major- approved electives are usually advanced technical courses, at level 3000 and above although EngrD 2700, AEP 2640, CS 2800 and similar courses are appropriate. Major-approved electives can be taken only after you have affiliated with chemical & biomolecular engineering and have an advisor in chemical & biomolecular engineering. The Major-approved electives are technical or professionally oriented courses approved by your chemical & biomolecular engineering advisor. If you want a biomolecular focus you should use the following courses as electives: BIOBM 3300 as an Applied Science Elective, ChemE 4010 and ChemE 4020 as Advanced Chemical Engineering Electives, and ChemE 5430 or ChemE 4810 as a Major-Approved Elective. Junior and Senior Years You should consult the Typical Curriculum on the next page to plan your junior and senior years. The various electives may be taken any semester. Plan your schedule to optimize your choices for your Biology Elective, Advanced Science Elective, Advanced Chemical Engineering Electives, and Major-Approved Electives. The Graduation Checklist on page 7 is a useful tally of your progress. Note that you must write a unique course on every row; no course may be used to satisfy more than one requirement. You must complete at least 128 credits to earn a degree in chemical engineering.

5. Be positive and ask objective questions. Beginning with a complaint will probably close the doors to helpful communication between you and the teacher. But it can be tricky to ask questions without seeming to pick a fight. Here are some questions to consider:
- How would you describe my child's academic progress?
- Does my child behave in school?
- What are my child's work habits?
- How does my child get along with the other children?
- How much homework will my child receive each week?
- How much should I be helping my child with her homework?
Then, be ready to plan with the teacher some ways for your child to be more successful in school. Don't assume the teacher has all the answers. You might suggest, "We can turn the TV off for 45 minutes every night if that's how long you think Jason's homework will take."
6. Expect to hear about your child's problem areas. A good teacher will summarize a child's strengths before describing problems. But with limited time to talk and in hopes that you can help your child at home, many teachers immediately focus on a child's weaknesses. Don't be defensive, but try to determine if or how your child may be different at home -- and let the teacher know. If the teacher says that your child doesn't work well in a group, you might say, "In Boy Scouts, David loves working with other boys to earn badges." Then, you and the teacher have some information to explore together. What's the purpose of the group, and who else besides your child is in it? Perhaps the groups need to rotate more often, or your child needs clearer expectations for his work.
7. Ask for handouts. Good teachers know how to save time in a conference, and they also know not to send you home empty-handed. They often have curriculum materials prepared for you to read. Keep them to refer to during the year -- they can answer questions that may occur to you later about classroom policies, the social-studies curriculum, or events such as field trips. The teacher's telephone number and/or e-mail address may also be included.

Rolling Stones Release 'Hyde Park Live' Album
A little more than a week after the Rolling Stones wrapped up a pair of weekend concerts at Hyde Park, an album documenting the events is now available on iTunes.
A little more than a week after the Rolling Stones wrapped up a pair of weekend concerts at Hyde Park, an album documenting the events is now available on iTunes.
Every Rolling Stones show comes with a certain amount of expected drama, but even by the band's elevated standards, their 1972 tour was especially crazy.
In addition to barbecues, vacations and oppressive humidity, July always brings with it a spell of best-of-the-year-so-far lists. The newest one of interest to classic rock fans reveals that Bon Jovi, Bruce Springsteen and the Rolling Stones have taken win, place and show in the list of the Top Grossing Concert Acts for the first half of 2013.
The Rolling Stones will perform at London's Hyde Park tomorrow (July 6), and the band wants the stage, and its view from it, to look exactly like it did 44 years ago, when they famously played a free gig there.
One of the Rolling Stones' greatest hits is getting new life.
While they may not be celebrating their 50th anniversary quite as enthusiastically as some fans might have wanted, the Rolling Stones appear to have gotten back into gear with their latest tour -- and guitarist Ron Wood thinks these dates will serve as a springboard into more new music from the group.
Pinned in by disco on one side and punk on the other, stuck in a creative rut that led some critics to proclaim they were yesterday's news and facing the loss of guitarist Keith Richards to an extended prison sentence, the Rolling Stones entered 1978 in need of a rebound. And they got it with 'Some Girls.'
Fans who attended the Anaheim, Calif. date of the Rolling Stones' '50 & Counting' Tour' got a little bit more than they bargained for Saturday night (May 18). Former Nirvana drummer and Foo Fighters front man Dave Grohl came out mid-set at the Honda Center to join the legendary rockers for a searing rendition of 'Bitch.'
Even though they left the label years ago, ABKCO Records is still an important part of the Rolling Stones' history. And the label is joining the band's 50th anniversary celebration by reissuing three classic Stones albums on clear 180 gram vinyl.
Judas Priest's last show in 2012 of the Epitaph world tour the band performed one song from every one of their 16 studio albums.
Their performance at London's Hammersmith Apollo will be released on DVD
Could the days of Rolling Stones concerts instantly setting box office records be numbered? While the Stones have always enjoyed robust sales on their prior tours, the Guardian is reporting that tickets to the group's highly anticipated '50 And Counting' tour aren't moving quite as fast as the group may have hoped.
The Rolling Stones have been celebrating their 50th anniversary with a slew of activity, including the recent documentary 'Crossfire Hurricane.'

Sunset JANUARY 2011
1. Preheat oven to 450°. Heat oil in a large ovenproof frying pan over medium-high heat. Rub pork chops with 1/2 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper and cook until golden brown on one side, about 3 minutes. While pork cooks, core and roughly chop escarole. Transfer pork to a plate.
2. Add 2 tbsp. broth, the vinegar, brown sugar, and remaining 1/4 tsp. each salt and pepper to pan and simmer 1 minute. Add shallots, squash, sage, and escarole to pan. Cook until escarole has wilted, about 5 minutes, mixing occasionally with tongs.
3. Put frying pan in oven and bake, uncovered, until squash is just tender, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven and fit pork, browned side up, between vegetables. Drizzle remaining broth over mixture and sprinkle walnuts on top. Return to oven and bake, uncovered, until vegetables begin to turn golden and pork is cooked through, 5 to 10 minutes.

HGTV'd Indoor/Outdoor converted garage w/Jamie Durie
What Houzz contributors are saying:
Mitchell Parker added this to Survive Your Home Remodel: 11 Must-Ask Questions
6. Where will you cook and do dishes? Conrado and his wife ate dinner in their garage for six months during a renovation. Granted, it probably wasn't as nice as the garage kitchen shown here, but Conrado did run a gas line through the wall and hook up his full Viking range to cook on (which probably wasn't up to code). "I have a photo of my wife eating at a poker table in our garage with a not-too-happy look on her face, which pretty much sums it up," he says. What to do: Work with what you've got. Set up the fridge in the laundry room or garage. If you have an electric range, set that up in your garage (just make sure it's away from oily rags etc.). A microwave, toaster oven and hot plate in a laundry room or garage will get you through most meals. An outdoor grill can be your best friend. But also, you might want to budget for eating a lot of meals out. Do the dishes in a bathroom sink. "Remodeling is not perfect," Conrado says. "You will be inconvenienced."More about setting up a temporary kitchen

Very good
Property and staff were very friendly and helpful. Great breakfast options and fresh cookies in the lobby. Nice deck off the lobby for meals, snacks, or just catching some sun.
The 2nd floor common area needs some fans to help circulate the air. It was a bit humid and smelled like wet carpet. Was probably a combination from both the 1st and 2nd floors. The maid left a tip envelope, clear sign that they do no pay their staff well. I generally tip, but not when asked to do so that is just rude. Tips are usually based on the service received.
We were upgraded to the suite with the panoramic view and loved it!
Everything!! Very comfortable. Staff was very helpful. Am going to stay there again soon.
All things considered (near the beach and all) - not too expensive. Pretty average price comparing to SF and the Valley. Overall clean and decent, breakfast is pretty nice, rooms are quite large
Very basic - just functional. Quality of the cleaning service could definitely be better. Of you ask for a quiet room, you get a room with a view to the window across the patio - 2 meters away
Beautiful location on the beach in Pacifica. Checked in the first night and then stepped outside to watch the sunset on the Pacific. Room was clean and comfortable, hotel as a whole was very quiet and peaceful. Breakfast was huge with lots of delicious options. Will definitely stay again in the future!
A little pricey per night, parking in the garage are is tight.
Ocean view Great breakfast
They double charged my card
Comfortable room and nice breakfast area that was well stocked.
The Dish TV package did not include the Golf Channel which was very disappointing as it was Tour Championship week. This is a basic channel in most packages and should be included in the package at this hotel in Pacifica.
friendly and helpful staff, very complete breakfast, which can be had outdoors on a small porch overlooking the ocean, clean modern room with a nice view of the shore
The room was great, we saw dolphines in the ocean next to the hotel.
It is far from everything..
I love that we could enjoy Rockaway Beach within walking distance. Holiday Inn was nice and clean which is to me the most important part of choosing a hotel.
Pets are allowed, barking dog.
The hotel is only 5 easy minutes from the hospital where my husband was having back surgery. Much easier, and way prettier, than staying in Daly City. The hotel staff couldn't have been nicer or more helpful. I stayed alone there and felt totally safe and comfortable. We even came back after he was discharged to enjoy the view and ocean smells. Very, very nice. Our daughter had surgery there yesterday and guess where the whole family stayed? You got it!! Again the staff was wonderful and everyone was happy!! Thank you so much for your hospitality and we will definitely be back! No surgery next time!! Just fun!!
I REALLY TRULY cannot think of a single thing. Clean, cute, friendly staff, great view and convenient!
Comfortable bed, nice view of ocean, clean room. It has microwave and refrigerator and coffee maker. Close to restaurants and beach.
Regular rates are expensive.
Fantastic little hotel right on the beach. Excellent continental breakfast. Well appointed rooms. Quiet.
Parking is a little tight in the garage.
The staff was very accommodating, and friendly. We loved how updated the hotel was, and the direct access to the beach. Also the free breakfast. We loved our view of the ocean from our room.
No pool or spa
excellent views from my ocean facing room. Spacious and clean. great breakfast.
Free wifi! Excellent breakfast and snack selection. Loved the cookies! Good location right on the beach. Covered parking to keep the sea air off the car.
No complaints
Location and the kind hospitality. Nice breakfast and a lot of complimentary.
They don't have power adapter, like they more ready for local visitors.
Friendly, helpful staff who offered to make dinner recommendations. The entire property was spotless including my room. If a clean room is your first priority, this is the place to stay! The room was comfortable and offered a superb view of the ocean. Very quiet and relaxing atmosphere. Complementary breakfast and tea and coffee 24 hours was a nice touch. Ample parking. I wouldn't stay anywhere else in Pacifica.
Pricing a bit high for a Holiday Inn Express, but you are paying a premium for the location. Definitely spend the extra $10 to get an ocean view room.
We loved the proximity to the beach. Out room had partial view and we were very pleased!
Our room was located near a storage room so we heard a lot of opening and closing of the door.
The location was right near the beach, some nice little shops and good restaurants.
The room was small and had no view whatsoever.
The staff was great, the location for our San Francisco trip was good, very clean, felt safe and very welcome, right on the ocean, good size tv and we had plenty of cable channels.breakfast was very good.
There aren't many restaurants nearby.
The hotel was ideally located close to Rockaway Beach. The staff were friendly and generally helpful. The room was large, clean and with all the facilities you would expect from a Holiday Inn. The free breakfast was plentiful and more than adequate.
I asked reception to book a taxi for me to attend a wedding close by. However, until prompted, this request was forgotten because "there were lots of other people" at reception at that time. Following the prompt a cab was booked but I only just made it to the wedding on time.

What to expect when you're expecting (an acceptance letter)
4.15 / 5.00 3,868 ViewsEDIT: Daily 5th place? Not too shabby! Thanks everybody!
EDIT: 7/13/08: Just reached 10,000 views, and it's almost got a 4.0! Thanks again everyone!
This was originally meant for a GTA IV collab, but I ended up making it a bit too big for a collab segment; gotta say I had too much fun writing and animating it!
Anyway, I realized I had gone over 2 months without putting anything on NG, and felt pretty guilty not putting anything up here. Anyway, this is just a quick little thing I threw together, so bear that in mind when it's pretty short.
Hope you guys enjoy!
PS: Add to videogames parody collection please!
funny as hell big american tittys!
LOL Rofl i own this game roman always call ether to get drunk or big american tittys!
And usually during a mission too.
He broke my sign!
Nice flash!
One of my favorite dick moves is ejecting out of a vehicle on fire, into another vehicle.
Usually a cop car or an ambulance. :)
Oh Noo, he took a penny but didn't leave one!
Coming soon: GTA Junior Rated E+10 for Ages 10 and up
Hey kids every wanted to steal a penny? Well now you can, you inconsederate jerk.
Nice flash dude!
Thanks! Something about petty, meaningless crimes strikes me as funny.
Glad you liked the toon, thanks for the review!
The Views are Over 9000! 3 year old joke!
Great Stuff Man! Again, Quote it a lot, Mainly while, you know playing the Game.
Who gave the guy a Shotgun anyway? For a Guy who maybe punched someone, I mean come on! I've had a guy with an Uzi chase me down...What Cop has an Uzi?!
Also who gives s-
Ok, Nevermind, Great Movie 10/10
I don't think I gave anyone a shotgun in the flash, there's just a pistol. Shotguns are ridiculously strong in that game though.
Thanks for the review!
this was awwsome try to make a gta spoof game that would be a front pager and nice preloader
Honestly, what makes something a "front pager" is beyond me. I've had 3 front pagers and there's no real outstanding reason why any of them are up there aside from being good. Hell, I think this is a better toon than those in many capacities. Glad you liked the toon though.
PS: I'm not making another GTA parody until the next GTA comes out. Strike when the iron is hot and all that jazz.

I highly recommend Marjan ! Her background in neurology, experience, and knowlegde makes her very unique and extremely talented. My first appointment she took be through a very thorough exam, testing my mind to my eyes to my muscles to my nerves. I really appreciated the time and care so took to get to know me before the adjustments. Her adjustments felt safe and had a lastly affect on my neck and shoulder that were bothering me. Thank you Marjan for your help, knowledge, and heart felt care!!

Suge Knight's $1 Million Lawsuit Against Kanye Tossed
Posted: Friday – November 5, 2010
Former Death Row Records honcho Marion "Suge" Knight was defeated in court yesterday (November 4th), when a federal judge in Miami tossed his $1 million lawsuit against Kanye West.
Knight claimed West was responsible for a 2005 shooting after during a pre-VMA party at The Shore Club in Miami in 2005.
According to Knight's lawsuit, he would have never been shot if security had been tighter during the party, which was attended by celebrities like The Game, Eddie Murphy, The Black Eyed Peas and others.
According to the Associated Press, a Miami federal judge ruled there was no evidence to prove that a shooting during the party was foreseeable.
Knight also lost a 15 carat diamond studded earrings valued at $150,000 during the fracas. No one has ever been charged with the shooting.

Apple reduces iAd pricing, revenue sharing
Apple is reportedly cutting the minimum cost of its iAd service again. According to Ad Age, the threshold for advertisers to acquire the iAd service has dropped from US$500,000 to just $100,000. Furthermore, Apple will reduce revenue sharing by no longer charging advertisers when users click on an ad, as has been the case since iAd launched.
Apple's iAd service has not seen the greatest of success. Having launched in 2010, Apple originally charged $1,000,000 for an ad campaign, but many of its initial clients abandoned iAd for services like AdMob, Greystripe, and Millenial Media who operate on multiple platforms.
Apple then reduced iAd's minimum rate to $500,000 per campaign. And in July, 2011, Apple offered further incentives by lowering the cost to $300,000 under certain circumstances.
At the beginning of this year, Apple brought in former Adobe VP, Todd Teresi, to reinvigorate the service. The new price point seems to be the first step in getting iAd back on track.
