Sounds like Anonymous Cowardice to me
Anonymous seems to mostly go for websites, however (although they did manage to take out Mastercard's transaction server, which was an interesting touch).
If they only went for Australian government websites, it's no big loss. I don't know why the press went so nuts last year when the Dept of Comms webserver went down - meh, it's hardly important.
It is more serious than that.
Some of the actual details of Australia's "unpreparedness" are common knowledge trhought the industry at least in telecoms. 2008 is _AFTER_ the disastrous outsourcing of most of the backroom functions of Telstra to Satyam.
It is a very rude awakening for the so called security forces to suddenly wake up and realise that the switch for the nation's communications infrastructure is located in company in another country, that company is a fraud and on top of that key functions have
Actually I think the subs are pretty good. Didn't they pwn a US carrier fleet a few years back? But I wouldn't trust the DSD to secure my backups or lock my front door. That would be silly. Describing them as our top cyber spy agency is a bit like describing the Victorian public transport corporation as our top electronic ticketing agency.
They are quite good. They had a few very expensive glitches when they started out, predominately computer related if memory serves me correctly, however the subs are very quiet even with being one of the largest, if not the largest, diesel electrics in the world.

What, during the US-Australia War of 2006?
...asking the US for tips on information security wasn't probably the best idea.
If you compare the news article to the secret document released, the journalist really, really stretched one paragraph. To quote "Australian intelligence would need to stay engaged with its US counterparts to share lessons learned in the cyber arena", certainly the US has demonstrated many things not to do and Australian Intelligence has likely learned from them.
Likely Australia is far better off expanding the role of ACMA http://www.acma.gov.au/WEB/HOMEPAGE/pc=HOME [acma.gov.au], to investigate 'cybercrime' and make
The idea is ACMA remains civilian and thus is a more acceptable place of employment for computer geeks and nerds, rather than the authoritarian structure of military and police forces. So the only thing the do is investigate and analyse system break-ins and suspicion of system break ins, as well as of course assist in the design of secure system.
The warrants, wire taps et al are still done by the same authorities they just go to ACMA for the technical resource. The main reason to do it that what, is pure
"...to stay relevant when so much information that was classified was now open source and available to anyone."
They are now in much the same situation with cables such as this being "open source and available to anyone".
Spooks also discussed how Israel was preparing to take down Iran's nuclear program and how to stay relevant when so much information that was classified was now open source and available to anyone.
Well, they got *that* part right.

I'm not sure why this is news? They realized a weakness and asked someone they thought had more knowledge for help. Thats what I EXPECT them to do.
When I know I'm out of my league and well beyond my knowledge base I ask someone else who's been doing it longer or more for some input.
Go on ya, Aussies, hope we gave you something useful. Maybe one day you can return the favor for some of the things you're better than us at.

Villa and Zapata: A History of the Mexican Revolution
Basic Books, 2002 - History - 496 pages
Recounting the decade of bloody events that followed the eruption of the Mexican Revolution in 1910, Villa and Zapata explores the regional, international, cultural, racial, and economic strife that made the rebels Francisco (Pancho) Villa and Emiliano Zapata legends. Throughout this volume drama colludes with history, in a tale of two social outlaws who became legendary national heroes, yet—despite their triumph and only meeting, in 1914, in the Mexican capital—failed to make common cause and ultimately fell victim to intrigues more treacherous than their own. 16 pages of black-and-white photographs bring this gripping narrative to life. "McLynn ... tells it so well ... you can hear the strains of he Mexican patriotic standard 'Zacatecas' as you read it."—Austin American-Statesman "An admirably clear account of the chaos of revolution, its rivalries and bloody struggles...."—The Spectator "Informative and insightful ... feels less like a history than a great story, as exciting as a Saturday serial Western."—Publishers Weekly

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
27 Sep 2010 15:06 GMT | Politics, Middle East, US & Canada, Israel, United States
Israel's 10-month moratorium on settlement construction has ended despite international pressure to extend it, sparking fears for the future of Middle East talks.
Mahmoud Abbas, the Palestinian president, held back on Monday from quitting the process, saying instead that he would first consult with other regional leaders about how to respond.
"We will not have any quick reactions," he said and added that he would weigh his options with the 22-member Arab league next week."After this chain of meetings, we might publish a position that clears up the position of the Palestinian and Arab people after Israel has refused to freeze settlements."He also urged Netanyahu to extend the moratorium by at least three months in an effort to allow talks to continue.
The Palestinian leader had repeatedly warned that the talks that were relaunched at the beginning of the month might collapse if Israel resumed building in the occupied territory.
Jacky Rowland, Al Jazeera's correspondent in Paris said Abbas' call for an extension on the moratorium appeared a "desperate measure".
"This really is the bottom line ... for president Abbas, he needs some kind of gesture in order for him to to be able to argue to his own public that there is any point at all to continue with this process.
"Otherwise [he] is left entirely exposed - how can he justify to his own constituency that he is going to continue with these talks with the Israelis while flagrantly building is continuing?"French condemnation
Abbas made his comments after talks with Nicolas Sarkozy, the French president, who reiterated a call for new buildings in the occupied West Bank to stop.
"We regret that the unanimous calls for the moratorium on Israeli settlement building to be extended were not listened to. I deplore this," he said after the meeting in Paris, the French capital.
Sarkozy added that the partial freeze "should have been extended to give negotiation a chance. I say this in front of president Abbas: 'settlement must stop'."The French leader said he would ask Abbas, Binyamin Netanyahu, Israel's prime minister, and Hosni Mubarak, Egypt's president, to peace talks by the end of October.
Netanyahu had called on Abbas not to abandon the peace talks after the freeze expired at midnight on Sunday.
"I call on president Abbas to continue with the good and honest talks we have just embarked upon, in an attempt to reach a historic peace agreement between our two peoples," Netanyahu said after allowing the partial moratorium on settlement construction to lapse.
However Khaled Meshaal, the exiled leader of Hamas, called on Abbas to uphold his promise and quit the talks.
"I call on my brothers at the Palestinian Authority, who had stated they would not pursue talks with the enemy [Israel] if it continued settlement construction, to hold to their promise," he said on Monday."To negotiate without a position of strength is absurd," he added.Settlers rallyThe moratorium ended as the United States urged Israel to extend the freeze, urging a compromise over the end of the ban.
As the freeze ended, around 2,000 people, including hundreds from Netanyahu's own right wing Likud party and a large contingent of flag-waving evangelical Christians, flooded into Revava settlement in the northern West Bank for a rally.
Standing in front of a stage draped with a huge banner emblazoned with the slogan "We salute the pioneers of Judaea and Samaria," the crowds counted down from 10 to zero as the sun set over the hills.
Earlier, settlers laid the cornerstone for a new nursery school in the nearby settlement of Kiryat Netafim in an event organised by Danon, a political hardliner but not a settler himself.
But settlers conceded that despite the symbolic displays, there was unlikely to be a flood of construction.
"We are getting back to business as usual and building but we will respect the prime minister's request," said David Ha'ivri, head of the Samaria regional council.
Jewish settlement on occupied Palestinian land is one of the bitterest aspects of the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians. Currently, around 500,000 Israelis live in more than 120 settlements across the West Bank and east Jerusalem, territories the Palestinians want for their promised state.
A previous round of direct talks collapsed in December 2008 when Israel launched a war on the Gaza Strip.

Astronauts Work on International Space Station
POSTED: Saturday, July 18, 2009 - 4:12pm
UPDATED: Wednesday, March 17, 2010 - 12:04pm
NASA - Two astronauts ventured out for a space walk this morning to do some construction work.
You can see one over to the right working on Japan's huge billion-dollar lab at the International Space Station.
They're installing an outdoor platform for science experiments.
This is the first of five space walks planned over the next two weeks for this shuttle flight.
The Space Station is more crowded than ever.

External temp controllers work by plugging the controller into the outlet, and plugging your freezer or fridge's power cord into the controller. The controller has it's own temperature probe which goes into your freezer. You set the temperature at which you want the freezer to hold at, turn the freezer to it's max cooling setting, and the controller will turn on and off the freezer as needed to maintain the temperature you set. They're very necessary if you are turning a freezer into a keezer. I have the simple analog Johnson and it works great for my keezer. I use an STC-1000 (ebay temp controller bought from Amazon ) for my ferm chamber.

"Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy."
"There cant be good living where there is not good drinking."
I just have to say i am pretty grateful for this and many other threads on this site.
I have a Frigidaire 7cuft freezer and i can get 6 ball lock kegs in it with my 2x8 (or 2x10) collar. I only have three taps, so it gives me storage space for my replacement kegs. I can post pics if there is any interest.
Three sit staggered on the floor and three staggered on the hump. One of the ones on the hump is only mostly on the hump but the other kegs help keep it in place just fine. I have the collar hinged as well as the lid and moving things in and out is not an issue.
I followed the advice at the beginning of the thread and had circles cut out for the foot print of my kegs. The guy selling the freezer looked at me funny when i went to look at it.
Thanks for all the help guys
Draft beer, Not me!!! - Belching Penguin
Found a Kenmore on CL and have the OD and ID (the guys doesn't know the cubic ft) and the model # he gave me is useless search-wise.
1) If I have the inner dimensions in inches, what's the best way to determine the cubic feet? Just cause...
2) Do any of you guys ever move your freezers for parties and whatnot? Should I even consider portability that when considering size? This one will be primarily stationed in my basement.
3) What's a reasonable height without a collar? The one I'm considering has an ID height of 29".
4) Finally, do any of you have any luck compartmentalizing your chest freezers, i.e., one side keezer temp, one side ferm temp?

Today (Saturday) we're having a day off and spending it at the Speke Resort in Kampala. It's a very smart place on the shores of Lake Victoria and has a large swimming pool.
Juliet was about to apply her sun cream when we noticed that what she thought was sun cream was actually Spanish hairspray. She had been using it all day yesterday at Sanga and wondered why it had not been very effective!

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. Not much of the early history of Jonathan Bryant is known before he started to work in Nakasoni Corporation's London branch. He worked on a project Digitek. He had designed a state of the art computer using Protosilicon new component that was discovered quite recently. Protosilicon mimicked human brain tissue making the computer one living brain they called it Psi-Key. When they were running a test someone had contaminated the test program with a virus at the same time the room was invaded by hostile force and Jonathan also got shot in the progress. He fell inside the dome containing the Psi-Key and it linked to his brain downloading some parts of itself inside of him. The task force stole the Psi-Key and setup a bomb to cover their tracks. After they left Jonathan got up mumbling something in binary and noticing the bomb, but couldn't do anything before it exploded destroying the building. Somehow Jonathon didn't die and found his wife's calling card from the rubble. He transferred himself through phone lines to his apartment trying to convince his wife that he was Jonathan. When he touched his wife he absorbed some electricity and noticed that it made him feel stronger. He then sucked power from every power source and Digitek was born. His wife didn't believe him so he decided to show her and when she saw what happened to his husband. She still didn't believe him. He then reveled that Nakasoni was just a front the project was really founded by organization named MyS-TECH. She still didn't believe him and tried to call the police, but Digitek escaped trough the same phone she was using.Next day Digitek went back to the Nakasoni Corporation buildings ruins searching for some clews and met Samantha there too. They found piece of the bomb and Digitek found out that Miracle Systems manufactured it. He then transported himself to Miracle Systems headcounters in London. When he arrived he was comforted by Bacillicons who had been affected by the virus turning them same kind of beings as he himself. They attacked him, but he again transported himself before they hit him. Purge ordered Byte and Kay to follow him. He used his wife's beeper to come back the real world and almost instantly got attacked by the two villains. As the fight ensued Digitek learned that he could turn his arms to any kind of weapon he could imagine. Digitek managed to win the fight and escaped before Purge arrived. Digitek and Samantha went an old cottage in Costwold Hills. When the arrived there Digitek decided to call help and transported Deathlok there. After Digitek explained things to Deathlok and recharged himself Bacillicons attacked them. They managed to severely injure Byte, but were forced to retreat. Deathlok was transported back to United States and Digitek left with Samantha to London. Digitek and Samantha decided to attack Miracle Systems. When Digitek arrived he ran into Kay and after a short fight destroyed her. Then Purge arrived and fight ensued between him and Digitek. Fight went on for sometime and Digitek won by shooting Purge with his hand cannon, but Purge managed to upload his persona trough the phone lines to Mr. Greville. Who then attacked Samantha, but Digitek intervened. Purge graphed Digitek and throws him at the Psi-Key. It was big mistake, because when Digitek impacted with the Psi-Key he cleaned it from the virus and destroyed both Purge and Byte. It looked like he himself finally died too, but in his funeral he rematerialized next to his tombstone. He revealed that he doesn't anymore need a solid body and is now just pure energy. They left the cemetery side by side. Civil War He resurfaced in America after the recent events. He had been revealed to blow his own head off when he had been imprisoned in Negative Zone's new prison ment for the unregistered heroes. It's now suspected that it was a elaborate escape plan, since Digitek can only be harmed by extensive damage to his central processing unit.Vampire StateDigitek was most recently seen as he assisted MI: 13 in their fight against Dracula's army of vampires as they attempted to invade Britain. He was among the strike force suported by SAS agents that took on Dracula's main army on the surface of the moon.

11. A tool according to claim 10 wherein said coupling means comprises a plurality of ball bearings disposed in a plurality of recesses, whereby when a torque that exceeds the preset torque is applied to the handle, said axial force is overcome and said bearing leave their recesses, allowing said first and second components to rotate relative to each other.
The present invention relates to high voltage electrical connections. More particularly, the invention discloses a novel tool for installing or removing a separable connector assembly from a deadbreak connector or the like. Still more particularly, the invention is a tool which has both torque set and control capability and alignment and coupling capability, for use with a loadbreak reducing tap plug.
High voltage electrical connections are well known in the art. When it is desired to convert a standard 600 amp (A) deadbreak interface to a standard 200 A loadbreak interface, a loadbreak reducing tap plug (LRTP), such as the 15 kV class loadbreak reducing tap plug No. 2637825B04M manufactured by RTE components, Pewaukee, Wisc., may be used.
A typical LRTP includes an elongate electrically insulated member with a conducting core. One end of the LRTP is adapted for snap-on electrical connection to a 200 A separable connector component. At its other end, the LRTP has a threaded, rotatable element sized for engagement with mating threads on a deadbreak bushing or the like. Typically, the rotatable element is a floating bolt having male threads and rotatably connected to and extending from the insulated body of the LRTP. Alternatively, the LRTP may have a floating nut, having female threads and rotatably connected to and housed within the insulated body of the LRTP.
When connecting an LRTP at its threaded end, it is necessary to insert at its free end a tool that extends the length of the LRTP, in order to rotate and advance the rotatable element at the threaded end. Alignment of the mating parts requires that the LRTP be stabilized while the connection is made. Similarly, when disconnecting the separable connector assembly from a deadbreak bushing or the like, it is desirable to stabilize the LRTP and separable connector while the floating bolt or nut is disengaged and to be able to pull the LRTP and separable connector out of the connection upon disengagement.
Typically, the necessary functions are performed by an operating tool which includes a shaft with its free end adapted to engage a hexagonal socket in the rotatable element. The other end of the shaft passes through a cap, or boot, and is affixed to an eye, so that the shaft may be rotated by a standard hot stick inserted into the eye, while the boot grasps and steadies the tool.
Furthermore, to ensure proper electrical connection, there is typically a specific torque to which the connection must be tightened. Tools for applying a preset amount of torque are known in the art. Examples include the torque limiting adapter that is the subject of U.S. Pat. No. 3,702,546 and the Perf-a-Torq tool manufactured by The X-4 Corporation of N. Billerica, Mass.
An separable connector assembly installation usually requires two steps: initial alignment and partial tightening of the connection using an operating tool, and final tightening of the connection using a torque tool. Stabilization is also desired when removing the separable connector, but torque setting capability is no longer necessary.
The present invention is a tool adapted for engagement of the rotatable element and further adapted to provide a mechanism whereby torque application can be limited. The present invention eliminates the need for multiple tools in the separable connector installation and removal processes and overcomes the deficiencies of the prior art.
According to the present invention, the operating tool includes a stabilization means and a torque release means, which enables the tool to function as both an operating tool and a torque tool. The torque release means is adapted to fit between the handle and shaft of the operating tool in a manner which allows a rotating force to be transmitted from the handle to the shaft at the operating end of the tool. The torque release means operates to disengage the force transmitting member when a predetermined amount of torque has been applied.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will appear from the following description.
For a detailed description of a preferred embodiment of the invention, reference will now be made to the accompanying drawings wherein:
FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional side view of a tool according to the present invention;
FIG. 1A is a cross-sectional side view of the tool of FIG. 1, showing the addition of a grounding cable;
FIG. 2 is an exploded view of the tool of FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional end view of the tool taken along plane 3--3 in FIG. 1;
FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional end view of the tool taken along plane 4--4 in FIG. 1; and
FIG. 5 is an enlarged view of the torque release means connected to the shaft and handle of the tool in FIG. 1.
Referring initially to FIG. 1, the tool of the present invention includes a torque release means 40 disposed between a shaft 10 and a handle 80. A boot 30 is seated on shaft 10 adjacent to the torque release means 40. Unless otherwise stated, all elements of the tool have a common axis 41.
Referring now to FIG. 2, shaft 10 has a reduced diameter portion 12 that terminates in a hexagonal shaft 14, a tapered transition section 16, a mid-section 18 and an enlarged diameter section 20 which includes an annular snap-ring groove 28. Extending from enlarged diameter section 20 is a second hexagonal shaft 22. Second hexagonal shaft 22 includes a coaxial threaded bore 23 therein best shown in FIG. 5.
Boot 30 has a generally cup-shaped body 31 forming cavity 32 and a closed end 34, and an axial opening 35 through closed end 34. Cavity 32 is adapted to accommodate an LRTP (not shown), and includes an inner conical surface 36 tapered for surrounding engagement with the outer surface of the LRTP. Cavity 32 further includes an annular shoulder 37 formed by a counterbore 33, a groove 38, and an annular locking ridge 39.
Axial opening 35 of boot 30 is disposed around and seated on enlarged diameter section 20 of shaft 10, and is held in place by a washer 24 and snap-ring 26, which is received by snap-ring groove 28. Second hexagonal shaft 22 of shaft 10 has a sufficient longitudinal length such that it extends through opening 35 and beyond closed end 34 of boot 30. When shaft 10 is inserted into an LRTP, the inner conical surface 36 of boot 30 is in surrounding engagement with one end of the LRTP, groove 38 and locking ridge 39 snap onto a corresponding ridge and groove (not shown) on the LRTP, and shaft 14 is releaseably received and engages the rotatable element at the opposite end of the LRTP. This rigid connection of the boot 30 to the LRTP enables the use of the boot 30 to support and guide the LRTP and separable connector assembly into or out of another electrical component, such as a "T-Op" connector of the type manufactured by RTE Components, Pewaukee, Wisc., Part No. 2638682B.
Torque release means 40 includes two coaxial, relatively rotatable elements, namely a cylindrical housing 42 that includes a chamber 46, and an internal torque transmitting member 48 mounted within chamber 46. Three pairs of oppositely disposed belleville washers 47, annular load cap 49, and washer 50 are disposed about force transmitting member 48 within chamber 46.
Referring now to FIG. 2 and 5, and particularly FIG. 5, housing 42 has a circular cross-section with a cylindrical side wall 52 closed at one end by end wall 44, on which transmitting member 48 bears. Chamber 46 has a counterbore 54 forming an annular lip 55 which receives washer 50. Washer 50 includes threads 53 around its outer circumference, which threadingly engage threads 43 as the inner circumference of counterbore 54 of housing 42.End wall 44 has a coaxial opening 56, which is non-circular, and is preferably square. Opening 56 extends through end wall 44 to chamber 46, and its inner end is enlarged diametrically to provide a shallow recess 58. End wall 44 also includes a transverse bore 45 therethrough, which is perpendicular to axis 41.
The interior side 60 of end wall 44 contains a plurality of recesses 62 arranged radially in a circle about axis 41 and adjacent to side wall 52, recesses 62 being hemispherical in configuration for receiving ball bearings 64. In a preferred 15 embodiment, there are twelve recesses 62 spaced regularly about axis 41.
Internal torque transmitting member 48 comprises a cylindrical body 66 which includes a coaxial hexagonal bore 68 therethrough, and an annular flange 70 extending radially about one terminal end. Hexagonal bore 68 is sized to receive the second end of second hexagonal shaft 22.
Annular flange 70 is sized to be rotatably received within chamber 46 and has sufficient clearance to turn freely therein. Flange 70 also includes a plurality of mating hemispherical recesses 72 corresponding in number to recesses 62 and azimuthally spaced about the axis 41 of the flange 70. Recesses 72 are located at the same radial distance from axis 41 as are recesses 62. Belleville washers 47 are disposed around cylindrical body 66 between the back face 73 of flange 70 and one end 75 of annular load cap 49. Belleville washers 47 bias transmitting member 48 against the inner side 60 of end wall 44. Load cap 49 is held in place by washer 50 and another snap-ring 77 which is received in a snap-ring groove 79 around load cap 49.
A washer 74 is housed within shallow recess 58 in end wall 44 and held in position by bolt 76 passing through washer 74 and threaded into threaded bore 23 of second hexagonal shaft 22, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 4. Bolt 76 serves to retain torque release means 40 on shaft 10. When torque transmitting member 48 and shaft 10 are so connected, lip 55 of housing 42 abuts washer 81 disposed between housing 42 and boot 30 to prevent load cap 49 from contacting end 34 of boot 30.
Referring now to FIGS. 2 and 3, handle 80 includes an eye portion 82 and a base 84. Base 84 includes a coaxial bore 85 therethrough and an eccentric opening 86. A lug 88 is disposed within eccentric opening 86. Lug 88 has an eccentric portion 90, which includes planar face 91, and a square portion 92, which extends from base 84 upon lug 88 being attached to base 84. A bolt 96 passes through bore 85 and is threaded onto threads 97 in eccentric lug portion 90 to connect lug 88. Lockwasher 98 retains bolt 96 in its desired position. Planar face 91 engages a corresponding planar face 83 within opening 86 in base 84, to facilitate the transmittal of torque from base 84 to lug 88. Square portion 92 includes a transverse bore 94 therethrough perpendicular to axis 41. Square portion 92 is matingly received within opening 56 of housing 42 and is held in place by a pin 95 passing through aligned bores 45 and 94.
Optionally, the tool may include a ground 100, shown in FIG. 1A, electrically connected to housing 42 at one end and at its other end to a ground, to provide a static ground and ensure that no current is conducted through the tool to the operator. For example, the grounding feature can be incorporated into the tool by modifying the shaft and making a copper sleeve 102 which slides over the rod between the boot and the torque release means. A lug with a ground lead 104 can then be attached to the copper rod.
When the components of the present tool are assembled as described above, a standard hot stick can be used to engage eye 82 and apply a rotating force to handle 80. This applied torque is transmitted from handle 80 via lug 88 to housing 42. When the torque is less than a preset torque value, ball bearings 64 transmit the applied torque from housing 42 to transmitting member 48. When the applied torque exceeds the preset value, however, it will overcome the biasing force of belleville washers 47, causing transmitting member 48 to shift axially away from end 44 of housing 42 and causing bearings 64 to leave recesses 72, thereby allowing transmitting member 42 to slip. Hence, no torque greater than the preset value can be transmitted. If transmitting member 42 does not slip, the torque is transmitted directly to shaft 10 by hexagonal shaft 22, and from shaft 10 to the rotatable element of an LRTP by hexagonal shaft 14.
The torque at which the tool will release, or slip, may be adjusted by advancing or reversing threaded washer 50, by rotating it relative to housing 42, thereby causing threads 53 to advance or reverse relative to threads 43. Advancing or reversing washer 50 changes the force applied by belleville washers 47 to the backside 73 of flange 70 and the torque at which the tool will release. In the preferred method of use, the torque value at which release occurs is not adjusted frequently and is set at approximately 20 ft-lbs.
It will be understood by one skilled in the art that according to the present invention, an LRTP and separable connector assembly may be steadied, connected, and tightened to a desired torque using a single tool. Further, any axial force which may inadvertently be applied by the user will not affect the torque release mechanism, ensuring that the torque at which the tool releases is actually the torque to which the rotatable element of the LRTP has been tightened. The tool is also useful in disconnecting an separable connector assembly.
While a preferred embodiment of the invention has been shown and described, modifications thereof can be made by one skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the invention.

D.C. Unitedcoach Tom Soehn took a chance against Mexican club Cruz Azul in the CONCACAF Champions League on Wednesday night at RFK Stadium.
With his eye on salvaging United's season in MLS, he rested his key players and started eight reserves.
The gamble failed, and United lost 1-0 before 7,214.
The result left United with little chance of advancing in the Champions League. The club sits at the bottom of Group A with zero points. After three consecutive losses, the team's only hope of advancing would be to win its last three games and get help from elsewhere. Two of those games are in Central America, where no club from United States ever has won.
"If we win this game we are still in it. Now it's going to very difficult," Soehn said. "We have to focus on Saturday [against Chivas USA] now."
The loss extended United's winless streak to seven matches in all competitions (0-6-1).
Cruz Azul also was guilty of fielding a weak team, with only three players starting from its 2-0 loss to Club America on Sunday.
With United's MLS postseason bid in jeopardy, Soehn used the game as a workout for his second-tier players and starting defender Greg Janicki, who made his debut with the club. The rookies held their own but in the end grew tired and were finally outplayed. United faces a crucial league game against Chivas USA at RFK on Saturday.
Francis Doe played as the lone striker in United's formation, with veteran Jaime Moreno playing behind him. Devon McTavish, playing as a holding midfielder, and defender Marc Burch were the only other regulars in the lineup.
Soehn had nothing to lose in starting Moreno. The striker was suspended for the club's next two MLS games and fined $500 after throwing an elbow against Andre Rocha in Sunday's 3-0 defeat at FC Dallas.
Moreno had an early chance, but his shot went too high.
Quavas Kirk, playing on the right flank, had a fine shot saved in the 23rd minute. Doe had the ball in the net moments later after finishing a cross from Moreno, but he was called offside.
Still, the effort seemed to promise better things, and the match was scoreless at halftime. United forward Ryan Cordeiro replaced midfielder Joe Vide, who was on a yellow card, after the break.
"The effort and the energy a lot of the young guys brought on the field, obviously mixed with the veterans, produced a good quality performance," Soehn said. "Unfortunately the goal happened."
Cruz Azul took the lead on a fluky goal when a shot from Gerardo Lugo was deflected in off Pablo Zeballos' back in the 56th minute. United goalie Zach Wells had no chance to stop the shot, which was credited to Zeballos.
Thabiso Kumalo, a second-half substitute for United, later hit the post. The result could have been worse as United held off a number of late attacks from the Mexican club, much to the cheers of the blue-shirted fans of Cruz Azul, who outnumbered United's supporters.
"The positive side is we worked really hard and put in a lot of energy. Unfortunately we come up with a bad result," Moreno said. "The luck is not going our way, and it's something we have to fight against."
United is 5-3-4 at home against Mexican teams; however, on the road the club is 0-7-0.
The Champions League features the best 24 teams from North America, Central America and the Caribbean. The winner qualifies for next year's FIFA Club World Cup. The top teams in the group advance to next year's knockout stages with the final played in April.

Went for a an Adventerous Jog
Went on a short jog today. It was really fun because we reached a rocky beach that had large boulders where we had the change to practice some parkour and bouldering skills. We then reached a second beach at Quisset Bay, and climbed some trees to the top. We then headed back to campus because we had a ton of work to ...
Sketches and Drawings
For part of our scientific log we need to have the skill to draw, sketch and paint animals, organisms, ocean, islands and parts of the boat. Today we practiced a little bit. Started with blind contour lines: draw something without looking at your sketch, you just keep looking at the object and ...
Sketching Sceneries
We took a trip to Quisset Bay to practice our sketching skills. We all picked a spot and sat for 1 hour to sketch what we saw. It was slightly snowing, it was cold, and we had a pencil and an eraser. In the the first phot you can see a dock, I was sitting on that dock looking into the bay.
Geocaching with the Crew
Organized a goecache hunt with people from my crew and another crew of SEA semester. We grabbed the bicycles in our basement and went hunting. The first one was in the woods close to campus, the second one was behind a tree on a bike path, and the third one was by the Nabska lighthouse. The sunset was truly amazing.

Heaven's Gate Coreopsis
Naturalizes readily and grows so easily!
We are honored to offer this exciting sport of Coreopsis Sweet Dreams. Heaven's Gate is far darker and more richly colored than its parent, with a deeper ring of rosy-crimson around the base of each bloom, giving it a stunning two-tone look. A one-of-a-kind perennial for your sunny garden, Heaven's Gate blooms for months (sometimes repeating in fall, too!) and is as carefree and easy as its common yellow cousins.
Heaven's Gate arose as a chance mutation in a field of Sweet Dreams in Connecticut's Sunny Border nursery. Its blooms are about 1½ inches wide, and arise by the many dozen on plants 9 to 18 inches high and 1 to 2 feet wide. This is our native Tickseed with a whole new look -- saturated with warm color, very free-blooming, and vigorous!
The show begins in early summer, when the attractive, ferny foliage of this quick grower is dotted with blooms. The flowers continue unabated right through summer and into fall, lasting up 'til hard frost in most areas. All they ask is full sunshine and reasonably good soil drainage, and they make a fine companion in the garden to Echinacea, Sedum, Salvia, and yellow Coreopsis, among others. Foolproof and SO unusual!
To get the most from your Heaven's Gate, shear back the foliage in late summer. This will create a bushier, fuller plant, with many more buds and a nicely compact habit. It also may encourage a fall rebloom!
Heaven's Gate is eager to naturalize in the garden, and where it is happy, will colonize into a dense groundcover-like planting that chokes out weeds and creates nonstop color. Very tolerant of everything from drought to poor soil, pests to rough winds, it fares best in moist, light soils. For sheer flower power, there's no beating Heaven's Gate! Space plants about 18 inches apart. Zones 5-8.

Really need a hand right here.
I have got the f320k, and it successfully updated to 4.4.
After that, I tried to root it, but it kept showing:
Mounting system RW and pushing SU, then remounting system RO again
mount: Operation not permitted
failed to copy 'su' to '/system/xbin/su': Read-only file system
Unable to chown /system/xbin/su: No such file or directory
Unable to chmod /system/xbin/su: No such file or directory
I tried couple of times, it turned out to be the same as the above.
Then I got into download mode, it shows the phone is rooted.
Does it mean that I have rooted the phone only with a shell privilege but not root?
coz in the cmd, it didnt show as # but $.
Could anyone please give me some advice?
Thank you so much!

Dear Dave,
Do you think it's unreasonable to ask my 76-year-old husband to have a will drawn up? He had one made when we lived in Florida, but we've moved to Georgia. Now he won't do it because he says wills aren't recognized in Georgia.
— Cam
Dear Cam,
Wills aren't recognized in Georgia? Where did he get his legal advice, in a bar or pool hall?
OK, let's straighten this out. The will he had drawn up in Florida wouldn't be recognized in Georgia, but he could have one made in Georgia that would be absolutely valid and legal. Everyone: No matter where you live, you need a will. If you die without a will in place, your family has to go through the court and jump through all sorts of hoops to settle the estate. The process can take several months. No one should leave their loved ones in that kind of predicament when having a will drawn up is such a simple and inexpensive process.
Everyone needs a will, Cam. Human beings have a 100 percent mortality rate, OK? No one is getting out of this thing alive. You need a will, a full estate plan with specific instructions on what to do with all your stuff after you die.

Dear Dave,
What's the difference between a Chapter 7 bankruptcy and Chapter 13 bankruptcy?
— Claudia
Dear Claudia,
Chapter 7 bankruptcy is what most people think about when they hear the word "bankruptcy." It's total bankruptcy, almost like dropping an atomic bomb on your entire financial picture.
Virtually all of your unsecured debt (except student loans, child support and money owed to the IRS) is wiped out. These things are not bankruptable. About 98 percent of the time, creditors of your other unsecured debt — things like credit cards — get nothing. Items that are secured debt, such as your car or house, are treated a little bit differently. If you're behind on payments, you may be allowed to get current. In most cases, banks will allow you to re-sign in a process called reaffirming the debt.
Chapter 13 bankruptcy is a payment plan structured over five years. In it, you have to pay all of your secured debt. If it has a lien on it, you pay 100 percent to keep the item. You also have to pay a portion of your unsecured debt. Again — like in Chapter 7 — debt to the IRS, child support and student loans don't go away. For any other unsecured debt, you can pay a percentage of what's owed. An overall payment plan is developed, and you make those payments for five years.
I'm not a big fan of either one.

Winter in the Barn
Posted in Around the Farm, Llama Stories, Peacocks, Photography, tagged animals, country life, farm, farm life, Frozen pipes, humor, llama, llama care, nature, peacock, Photography, snow, tractor, Winter on January 28, 2014 | 2 Comments »
Days and days of single digit temperatures can be very taxing on all of us, but especially those of us who have animals and livestock that depend on us for their care, comfort, and wellbeing. We've raised llamas for over 13 years now and have never had a winter like this one. We thought we had planned well for the vagaries of a Virginia winter, but Mother Nature is a scamp and likes to keep us on our toes by throwing new challenges our way.
Our first winter with the llamas we had a 36 inch snow. It was up to the llamas' bellies and they would not venture out of the barn. Well, think about it…..would you? We had a 6 foot snow blower that fit onto the PTO of our tractor, so 'Road Warrior' cleared a loop around the pasture so the llamas had a place to walk. It took about a month for that snow to melt, and for weeks, the llamas walked in endless circles around the llama loop.
Then there was the winter that we had a 30 inch blizzard and lost power for 5 days. Of course, our portable generator went belly up and when you're on a well, no power means no water. Not to mention, no heat. We had the fireplace and a Kerosun heater that we carried from room to room. For water for the llamas, we melted snow in a stew pot on top of the Kerosun. And this isn't Murphy's Law, it is THE LAW OF LIFE. If you wait to buy something until you really need it, it will be sold out. No generators, No portable heaters, No bottled water, No lamp oil, No batteries. It got so chilly in the kitchen that we opened the fridge door to keep the food cold.
This year has been COLD. POLAR COLD. We had a burst pipe in the garage, but no major damage. Remember THE LAW OF LIFE? When you really need a plumber, they will be busy. Luckily we have a regular plumber and he squoze in a minute to come put a temporary cap on the pipe so we could have our water back.
It has been so consistently COLD that our freezeless self-draining barn hydrant froze. We went to Lowes to get some electrical heat tape, but there was that old LAW OF LIFE again. They couldn't get it in and no one had any for miles around. So we took stock of what we had on hand and came up with this ingenious solution.
Within an hour the pipe was clear and we had water once again.
They are predicting another Arctic blast for the next three days, so today I have been searching for outdoor weatherproof heaters in the hopes of keeping our sweet peacock, Farina, warm. But needless to say……..
Vandal Finally Caught Red-Pawed
Posted in Peacocks, Photography, tagged animals, dogs, goldendoodle, humor, peacock, Photography, raccoon, thieving raccoon on December 12, 2013 | Leave a Comment »
Well, after our peacock feeder tray was destroyed a couple of weeks ago, we have had two game cameras focused on the area to see if we could catch the culprit.
You can read the original story here: https://tcllamas.wordpress.com/2013/11/19/will-the-guilty-party-please-come-forward/
We caught several visitors:
There was the scavenging squirrel
The crafty crows
The dashing dogs
Farina the peacock
The wait staff (yours truly)
Finally the culprit…caught on film
The renegade raccoon.
It's amazing how crafty and smart those critters are. He had unscrewed the nut and bolt holding the feeder to the hook and knocked it to the ground. Amazingly all the tiny parts were right there in a pile, so it was easy to reassemble.
More amazing still was that the next night, he figured out how to lift the feeder off the hook without taking it apart.
It's scary when you are trying to match wits with the wildlife and you realize you are losing.
Posted in Around the Farm, Peacocks, tagged animal, chickens, country life, ice storm, peacock, Photography, Shenandoah Valley on December 9, 2013 | 2 Comments »
OK, what's wrong with this picture?
What's wrong is that we spent several hundred dollars and two days over the summer constructing a shelter for Farina, and he refuses to use it.
Wouldn't you like to sit on this perch and stay dry, and ice-free?
Well, you can't reason with a peacock. They have a "pea" brain after all.
Farina insists on sleeping on the peak of our roof overlooking his beloved chickens.
I think there is an identity crisis going on here.
We've been feeding Farina under the shelter twice a day for several months. He'll make a trip down the hill to the "peapod" morning and evening and eat his dinner, then head back to the house to sit with the hens. He'd rather spend time with the chickens than with the peacock pair, Buckwheat and Darla, that live in the aviary.
Well, like they say, "You can lead a horse to water…….."

Pecan Tarts–A Perfect Recipe for Fall
Posted in Recipes, tagged humor, llama, llama business, llama trek, pecan pie, pecan tart, Photography, pie crust cut outs, recipe on October 4, 2013 | Leave a Comment »
I'm a child of the south and IMO there is not a better desert in the world, especially around the holiday season, than a pecan pie. And not only is it a delicious and elegant dessert, its darned easy to make. And that ranks high on the list in my book of recipes.
I have a llama trek scheduled for tomorrow, and so today I am preparing the picnic lunch. I cook a 4 course lunch that I call "trail gourmet"; starting with an appetizer, followed by a soup, then a sandwich buffet with a side salad, and finishing with a home cooked dessert. It's now the first of October and the leaves are starting to turn. It's a great time to serve some of my favorite fall recipes.
I have adapted the traditional pecan pie into an individual tart. I always have to be careful in choosing and preparing my trek lunches so that they can survive being carried 4 miles on the back of a llama. Mostly I have been successful. I have had the occasional batch of cupcakes get turned on their heads, but I still continue to whip them up from time to time.
These pecans tarts never fail to impress. They do look really amazing, but they are so, so easy to make. The ingredient list is short:
2/3 Cups chopped pecans
1 Cup packed brown sugar
2/3 Cups light colored corn syrup
2 tsp vanilla extract
¼ tsp salt
2 large eggs and 2 large egg whites, lightly beaten
2 9" inch pastry crusts
I must confess. I have never made pie crust from scratch in my life. I think Pillsbury does just fine with their refrigerated rolled crusts. But if you are a traditionalist, by all means, make your own crusts.
You can make these in any tart tins that you may have on hand, but since I want these to be ruggedly transportable, I use 3" aluminum disposable tart tins. They also fit perfectly in a standard muffin tin. You need to experiment with dough cutters you have on hand to find just the perfect size for your tart tin. My goldfish glass works perfectly with its 3 ¾" rim.
Place the crusts in the tins and ease them into place.
Next—divide the pecans evenly among the tart cups.
Lightly whip the 2 eggs and 2 egg whites with a wire whisk and then add the brown sugar, corn syrup, vanilla and salt. Stir well with the whisk until it is well mixed and the sugar is dissolved. Spoon about ¼ cup of filling into each tart. You don't want the filling to overflow the pie crust.
To make these little pies look really special, I like to decorate them with little pastry cut outs.
Here, I am using a maple leaf design. You can find these wonderful pie press cutters online. The ones I have are made by Paula Deen. William Sonoma has them as well. They generally come in sets of 4 with different holiday designs.
Look for ones with the spring plunger. It makes a world of difference when you are trying to pop the little pieces of dough out of the cutters without mangling the designs.
It also helps to dip the cutter into flour first.
I place one leaf on each little pie. Here they are ready for baking.
Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes or until the pastry is lightly brown and the filling is puffy.
Don't be alarmed if the tarts come out of the oven looking like erupting volcanoes. As the lava cools, the tops level back out and the major earthquakes disappear.
Remove the tarts from the muffin tin and allow to cool on a wire rack.
Once prepared these tarts can be stored in an airtight container for several days.
Now just wait for the compliments. Yum.

Can Open Hardware Transform the Data Center? 41
from the more-than-meets-the-eye dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
How about we actually stop the insanity that promulgates the need for the insanely sized data centers? Use smart caching, java applets and just send business logic via the connection instead of the bloated insanity of html. Instead of shoe-horning an intentionally stateless 'square peg' protocol into the 'round hole' actually go with something rational. Then your data servers only need to deal with business logic and you farm out more of your processing requirements to clients. (aka the rational approach). I despair when I see what applets (irrespective of the language - just the general concept) could have provided us and where we are now in 2012.
(P.S. I can spell, honest! It's just UK engrish)
