KPMG, in association with London Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI), have launched a report which analyses the skills gap in relation to the construction pipeline between 2014-2017. The report provides a detailed insight into the skills gap and the training shortage, and makes recommendations for policy makers, employers and training bodies to help drive change in the industry.

Analysis of the largest UK construction contractors indicates that despite greater deal-flow, the financial position of many contractors remains weak, with cash balances and margins down.

2013 Global Construction Survey: Ready for the next big wave?
After prolonged economic uncertainty, a majority of companies in the global engineering and construction sector have fresh confidence in the growth prospects for the industry, according to our International 2013 Global Construction Survey: Ready for the Next Big Wave?
Today's infrastructure development is primarily shaped by cost considerations. Whether it is the cost of debt, the cost of funding or operational costs, project owners, managers and - increasingly - users are fixated on cost. Foresight offers unique insight and opinion on emerging trends and developments in global infrastructure.
The Pre-Election Briefing will provide an insight into how the policy positions of the main political parties may affect opportunities for the industry beyond May 2015, in particular around the hot topics of devolution and energy. Antony Oliver, editor of Infrastructure Intelligence, will be chairing the event. We will be hosting the event in both our London and Birmingham offices.

"Great Company but Management Used "That a Boy" System "
- Comp & Benefits
- Work/Life Balance
- Senior Management
- Career Opportunities
I worked at Bright House Networks
Ability to move up in company, decent benefits dental/medical/VSP 401k including free cable/internet, good communication from immediate Team Supervisor of what is needed for improvement, Team Supervisor also acknowledges when a job is well done.
Upper management is a tight knit, fowl mouthed, constantly smoking, pack. The more they like you personally the further you will move in the company. They welcome "ass kissers" and people whom to delegate to. Have been in same position for 20yrs and has not been trained in current cable/internet/telephony technologies. Very negative bunch that ruins a great company.
Replace upper management with new, positive, and ethical people. The actions of management casts a dark cloud over menial employees who notice "insider" promotion system.

Comment is free + Squatting
Housing Action Southwark and Lambeth: There is no justification for Southwark council selling off crucial property during such a desperate housing crisis
Owen Hatherley: Look – a burger bar in a former Asian woman's advice centre! The decay of social provision is given an offensive spin
Diane Taylor: Local residents are clear that without the help of the squatters and members of Occupy, the library would not have reopened
Ally Fogg: Banning the occupation of non-residential buildings would make the defence by local communities of their urban heritage a crime
Owen Hatherley: Collective housing is unlikely to endear itself to the government, but it's time we looked beyond our obsession with private space
Squatting is to become a criminal offence in England and Wales, punishable by up to six months' jail and fines up to £5,000
liberty central Squatting law will only criminalise the homeless. Let's demolish clause 130Tanya Gold: The million empty homes in Britain are the real scandal, not the squatting of a tiny number of occupied properties
George Monbiot: The Vickers banking reforms are set for 2019. But when it comes to undermining protest ministers don't fanny about
Grant Shapps: Our reason for criminalising squatting is crystal clear – decent, law-abiding people deserve to have their homes protected
Alexander Vasudevan: You told us: A change in law over trespass not only signals a disregard for the homeless, it has implications on the right to protest
Kathryn Garrity: Media reports demonising squatters are being used to push through laws that criminalise society's most vulnerable people
Editorial: No law will stop squatters trying, until the need for affordable housing is met
Response: Today's police are neither trained nor equipped to deal with evictions. We need a simpler, not tougher, system, says Claire Sandbrook
Alexander Vasudevan: Proposals to criminalise squatting would not only exacerbate the housing shortage – it removes a potent symbol of protest
Laurie Penny: Occupiers of the Gaddafi mansion in London are striking a blow against international elites
The people's panel: With squatting in the news again, six readers recount their experiences of living in unused housing space
The people's panel Have your say on … squattingPeople's panelPeople's panel: Have you ever squatted, or had squatters? We'd like to hear from people who know all about the lives of empty buildings
Lucy Finchett-Maddock and Bill Bowring: Squatting is an obvious solution to the UK's lack of housing, but new 'property guardian' firms neglect tenants' traditional rights
Jessica Reed: A group of activists squatting an uninhabited Parisian mansion have been ordered to vacate it, but why should they?
Barbara Ellen: Most squatters are useless crusties. And I should know. I used to be one
Bailiffs are about to evict a group of squatters calling themselves the Temporary School of Thought. The owner's solicitor says the Mayfair house was empty because his client was awaiting planning permission to renovate it. Should squatters be evicted from buildings that would otherwise lie empty?
Cecilia Anesi: If tenants cannot be found for a house, poor people will move in – and might just add a touch of exoticism to a dead neighbourhood
Angela Phillips: From Mary Wollstonecraft to the Angry Brigade, Stoke Newington, in North London, has always had a radical tradition. Now a group of squatters have taken over a former jazz bar for the 'community'.

Just curious...
are you suggesting we shouldn't consume goods (or at least reluctantly consume goods) that were produced in China?
Try putting together an argument for why we shouldn't consume goods from China that wouldn't also suggest we shouldn't consume oranges from Florida, corn from Iowa, oil from Texas, or grapes from California.
To me, bashing goods from China has simply become another trendy way to display complete economic ignorance.

Once again hosting people like Christian and Brook are what makes air B&B such a wonderful experience. It's always such a treat to meet such nice people. They were excellent at communicating via text messaging and were wonderful guest. They left the apartment in excellent condition and stripped all the sheets and towels from the bed and bathroom and stuck them in the laundry basket. It's always fun to see young couples traveling and visiting new places. Hopefully you will have a chance to meet them, we would gladly have them stay again.
Christian was a great guest. Very good with communication, very respectful in all exchanges, and left the place in great condition. The apartment was clean upon their departure and I would gladly host them again. I'd recommend others to do the same.

For the past few years, SA's Debate and Discussion forum has kept a close eye on horrible political cartoonists who churn out willfully misinformed scrawls for salary/syndication/"donations please." Preempting any "I'd like to see you do better" rebuttals, D&D regulars made these skillful parodies!
Here's the introductory artwork Rorus Raz put together for the latest edition of this venerable thread, titled "Political Cartoons 2014: A compelling argument against art." It's just 9 pages long at this point, including a guide to frequently referenced panels and a list of featured cartoonists from Asay to Zyglis, so it's easy to catch up quickly and then keep up with the latest cartoon outrage and original content!
We'll get into more specialized parodies later, but first, here are some general-use political GIFs! Even without context about the original cartoonist's body of work or intentions, or even knowing these are parodies, they're still fun to post on Facebook walls and/or FW: to relatives just to see what they'll say!

How BuildZoom's Bid Tool Works
About BuildZoom
BuildZoom has one simple purpose: To help you find the perfect contractor.
How we do this is more complicated. BuildZoom is a database of every licensed contractor in the United States. We work hard to figure out who the great contractors are, and who the bad contractors are.
BuildZoom combines license information on 3.5 million contractors with 75 million building permits, and over 80,000 reviews from homeowners and the Better Business Bureau.
If you are looking for a specific contractor and you can't find them on BuildZoom, it's likely that they do not have a license - please contact us and we'll try to help!
Finding a Contractor through BuildZoom
The best way to use BuildZoom is to let us recommend contractors for your remodeling projects.
Homeowners who hire through BuildZoom's free bidding system report high rates of satisfaction, and homeowners who research contractors online are twice as likely to be happy at the end of their project.
If you hire a contractor through BuildZoom, that contractor is accountable to us. We can enforce standards of behavior, mediate disputes, and guarantee satisfaction.
Read more about why hiring through BuildZoom is so effective.
Why should I trust BuildZoom
We built this site to help people find great contractors, and to help people avoid bad contractors. We take this incredibly seriously, and we have a zero tolerance policy for contractors who don't adhere to our standards.
1 million people use BuildZoom every month. Our business depends on their trust.
If a contractor does poor work, they will no longer receive leads from BuildZoom, and a negative review will be posted on their profile.

Drupal Association News: Clever Ways to Raise Funds for D8 Accelerate
What's the most clever way to raise funds for Drupal? Ask Ralf Hendel of Comm Press in Hamburg Germany.
The Drupal Association is working with the Drupal 8 branch maintainers to provide $250,000 in Drupal 8 Acceleration Grants that will be awarded to individuals and groups, helping them get Drupal 8 from beta to release.
Now The Association needs to raise the funds to support the grants and we are working with the Association Board to kick off a D8 Accelerate fundraiser. We are asking community members to help out and donate here. We all want to get D8 released so we can enjoy all the launch parties!
The good news is that we only need to raise $125,000 as a community because all donations will be matched! The Association contributed $62,500 and the Association Board raised another $62,500 from Anchor Donors: Acquia, Appnovation, Drupalize.me by Lullabot, Palantir.net, Phase2, PreviousNext, and Wunderkraut.Having Anchor Partners means…
Every dollar you donate is matched, doubling your impact.
Ralf Hendel, CEO of Comm Press, heard the call and took action in the most creative way. Over the last few years, Ralf learned how to play the piano (very well I might add) and he recently held a benefit recital where he played Bach, Schubert, and Skrjabin. Those attending were asked to donate to D8 Accelerate and together they raised €345. Of course, with the matching funds from our Anchor Partners, that contribution is €690.
At The Drupal Association, we are always amazed at the many talents our community has and we are especially thankful to Ralf for sharing his passion for music and Drupal with others and raising these funds.
There's so many clever ways to raise funds to help D8 get across the finish line. What ideas do you have? Or if feel like going the traditional route, you can donate here.
Thanks for considering this opportunity to get Drupal 8 released sooner. If you would like to learn more about how D8 Accelerate grants are being given out, please read Angie Byron's blog post.

Drupalpress, Drupal in the Health Sciences Library at UVA: equipment booking system — managing reservation conflicts with field validation and EntityFieldQuery()
The first requirement of a registration system is to have something to reserve.
The second requirement of a registration system is to manage conflicting reservations.
Setting up validation of submitted reservations based on the existing reservation nodes was probably the most complex part of this project. A booking module like MERCI has this functionality baked in — but again, that was too heavy for us so we had to do it on our own. We started off on a fairly thankless path of Views/Rules integration. Basically we were building a view of existing reservations, contextually filtering that view by content id (the item that someone was trying to reserve) and then setting a rule that would delete the content and redirect the user to a "oops that's not available" page. We ran into issues building the view contextually with rules (for some reason the rule wouldn't pass the nid …) and even if we would have got that wired up, it would have been clunky.
Scrap that.
On to Field Validation.
The Field Validation module offers client-side form validation (not to be confused with Clientside Validation or Webform Validation based on any number of conditions at the field level. We were trying to validate the submitted reservation on length (no longer than 5 days) and availability (no reservations of the same item during any of the days requested).
The length turned out to be pretty straightforward — we set the "Date range2″ field validator on the reservation date field. The validator lets you choose "global" date format, which means you can input logic like "+ X days" so long as it can be converted by the strtotime() function.
Field Validation also gives you configurations to bypass the validation criteria by role — this was helpful in our case given that there are special circumstances when "approved" reservations can be made for longer than 5 days. And if something doesn't validate, you can plug in a custom error message in the validator configuration.
With the condition set for the length of the reservation, we could tackle the real beast. Determining reservation conflicts required us to use the "powerfull [sic] but dangerous" PHP validator from Field Validation. Squirting custom code into our Drupal instance is something we try to avoid as much as possible — it's difficult to maintain … and as you'll see below it can be difficult to understand. To be honest, a big part of the impetus for writing this series of blog posts was to document the 60+ lines of code that we strung together to get our booking system to recognize conflicts.
The script starts by identifying information about the item that the patron is trying to reserve (item = $arg1, checkout date = $arg2, return date = $arg3) and then builds an array of dates from the start to finish of the requested reservation. Then we use EntityFieldQuery() to find all of the reservations that have dates less than or equal to the end date request. That's where we use the fieldCondition() with <= to the $arg3_for_fc value. What that gives us is all of the reservations on that item that could possibly conflict. Then we sort by descending and trim the top value out of the list to get the nearest reservation to the date requested. With that record in hand, we can build another array of start and end dates and use array_intersetct() to see if there is any overlap.
I bet that was fun to read.
I'll leave you with the code and comments:<?php //find arguments from nid and dates for the requested reservation $arg1 = $this->entity->field_equipmentt_item[und][0][target_id]; $arg2 = $this->entity->field_reservation_date[und][0][value]; $arg2 = new DateTime($arg2); $arg3 = $this->entity->field_reservation_date[und][0][value2]; $arg3 = new DateTime($arg3); $arg3_for_fc = $arg3->format("Ymd"); //build out array of argument dates for comparison with existing reservation $beginning = $arg2; $ending = $arg3; $ending = $ending->modify( '+1 day' ); $argumentinterval = new DateInterval('P1D'); $argumentdaterange = new DatePeriod($beginning, $argumentinterval ,$ending); $arraydates = array(); foreach($argumentdaterange as $argumentdates){ $arraydates []= $argumentdates->format("Ymd"); } //execute entityfieldquery to find the most recent reservation that could conflict $query = new EntityFieldQuery(); $fullquery = $query->entityCondition('entity_type', 'node') ->entityCondition('bundle', 'reservation') ->propertyCondition('status', NODE_PUBLISHED) ->fieldCondition('field_equipmentt_item', 'target_id', $arg1, '=') ->fieldCondition('field_reservation_date', 'value', $arg3_for_fc, '<=') ->fieldOrderBy('field_reservation_date', 'value', 'desc') ->range(0,1); $fetchrecords = $fullquery->execute(); if (isset($fetchrecords['node'])) { $reservation_nids = array_keys($fetchrecords['node']); $reservations = entity_load('node', $reservation_nids); } //find std object for the nearest reservation from the top $reservations_test = array_slice($reservations, 0, 1); //parse and record values for dates $startdate = $reservations_test[0]->field_reservation_date[und][0][value]; $enddate = $reservations_test[0]->field_reservation_date[und][0][value2]; //iterate through to create interval date array $begin = new DateTime($startdate); $end = new DateTime($enddate); $end = $end->modify( '+1 day' ); $interval = new DateInterval('P1D'); $daterange = new DatePeriod($begin, $interval ,$end); $arraydates2 = array(); foreach($daterange as $date){ $arraydates2 []= $date->format("Ymd"); } $conflicts = array_intersect($arraydates, $arraydates2); if($conflicts != NULL){ $this->set_error(); } ?>
Yuriy Babenko: Adding custom contexts to UDFs in Acquia Lift
Within the Lift ecosystem, "contexts" can be thought of as pre-defined functionality that makes data available to the personalization tools, when that data exists in the current state (of the site/user/environment/whatever else).Use cases
The simplest use of contexts is in mapping their data to UDF fields on /admin/config/content/personalize/acquia_lift_profiles. When the context is available, its data is assigned to a UDF field and included with Lift requests. For example, the Personalize URL Context module (part of the Personalize suite) does exactly this with query string contexts.First steps
The first thing to do is to implement hook_ctools_plugin_api() and hook_personalize_visitor_contexts(). These will make the Personalize module aware of your code, and will allow it to load your context declaration class.
Our module is called yuba_lift:/**
* Implements hook_ctools_plugin_api();
function yuba_lift_ctools_plugin_api($owner, $api) {
if ($owner == 'personalize' && $api == 'personalize') {
return array('version' => 1);
* Implements hook_personalize_visitor_contexts();
function yuba_lift_personalize_visitor_context() {
$info = array();
$path = drupal_get_path('module', 'yuba_lift') . '/plugins';
$info['yuba_lift'] = array(
'path' => $path . '/visitor_context',
'handler' => array(
'file' => 'YubaLift.inc',
'class' => 'YubaLift',
return $info;
The latter hook tells Personalize that we have a class called YubaLift located at /plugins/visitor_context/YubaLift.inc (relative to our module's folder).The context class
Our context class must extend the abstract PersonalizeContextBase and implement a couple required methods:<?php
* @file
* Provides a visitor context plugin for Custom Yuba data.
class YubaLift extends PersonalizeContextBase {
* Implements PersonalizeContextInterface::create().
public static function create(PersonalizeAgentInterface $agent = NULL, $selected_context = array()) {
return new self($agent, $selected_context);
* Implements PersonalizeContextInterface::getOptions().
public static function getOptions() {
$options = array();
$options['car_color'] = array('name' => t('Car color'),);
$options['destination'] = array('name' => t('Destination'),);
foreach ($options as &$option) {
$option['group'] = t('Yuba');
return $options;
The getOptions method is what we're interested in; it returns an array of context options (individual items that can be assigned to UDF fields, among other uses). The options are grouped into a 'Yuba' group, which will be visible in the UDF selects.
With this code in place (and cache cleared - for the hooks above), the 'Yuba' group and its context options become available for mapping to UDFs.Values for options
The context options now need actual values. This is achieved by providing those values to an appropriate JavaScript object. We'll do this in hook_page_build()./**
* Implements hook_page_build();
function yuba_lift_page_build(&$page) {
// build values corresponding to our context options
$values = array(
'car_color' => t('Red'),
'destination' => t('Beach'),
// add the options' values to JS data, and load separate JS file
$page['page_top']['yuba_lift'] = array(
'#attached' => array(
'js' => array(
drupal_get_path('module', 'yuba_lift') . '/js/yuba_lift.js' => array(),
'data' => array(
'yuba_lift' => array(
'contexts' => $values,
'type' => 'setting'
In the example above we hardcoded our values. In real use cases, the context options' values would vary from page to page, or be entirely omitted (when they're not appropriate) - this will, of course, be specific to your individual application.
With the values in place, we add them to a JS setting (Drupal.settings.yuba_lift.contexts), and also load a JS file. You could store the values in any arbitrary JS variable, but it will need to be accessible from the JS file we're about to create.The JavaScript
The last piece of the puzzle is creating a new object within Drupal.personalize.visitor_context that will implement the getContext method. This method will look at the enabled contexts (provided via a parameter), and map them to the appropriate values (which were passed via hook_page_build() above):(function ($) {
* Visitor Context object.
* Code is mostly pulled together from Personalize modules.
Drupal.personalize = Drupal.personalize || {};
Drupal.personalize.visitor_context = Drupal.personalize.visitor_context || {};
Drupal.personalize.visitor_context.yuba_lift = {
'getContext': function(enabled) {
if (!Drupal.settings.hasOwnProperty('yuba_lift')) {
return [];
var i = 0;
var context_values = {};
for (i in enabled) {
if (enabled.hasOwnProperty(i) && Drupal.settings.yuba_lift.contexts.hasOwnProperty(i)) {
context_values[i] = Drupal.settings.yuba_lift.contexts[i];
return context_values;
That's it! You'll now see your UDF values showing up in Lift requests. You may also want to create new column(s) for the custom UDF mappings in your Lift admin interface.
You can grab the completed module from my GitHub.Tagsdrupal planetdrupaldrupal 7liftpersonalization
Chen Hui Jing: The one without sleep
So I recently participated in my first ever hackathon over the weekend of March 28. Battlehack Singapore to be exact (oddly, there was another hackathon taking place at the same time). A UX designer friend of mine had told me about the event and asked if I wanted to join as a team.
Me: Is there gonna be food at this thing?
Her: Erm…yes.
Me: Sold!
Joking aside, I'd never done a hackathon before and thought it'd be fun to try. We managed to recruit another friend and went as a team of three.
The theme of the hackathon was to solve a local...
Paul Rowell: My journey in Drupal, 4 years on
I'm approaching the 4 year mark at my agency and along with it my 4 year mark working with Drupal. It's been an interesting journey so far and I've learned a fair bit, but, as with anything in technology, there's still a great deal left to discover. This is my journey so far and a few key points I learned along the way.
Victor Kane: Getting Started with a Real World Application on platform.sh
This is the second in a series of articles involving the writing and launching of my DurableDrupal Lean ebook series website on platform.sh. Since it's a real world application, this article is for real world website and web application developers. If you are starting from scratch but enthusiastic and willing to learn, that means you too. I'm fortunate enough to have their sponsorship and full technical support, so everything in the article has been tested out on the platform. A link will be edited in here as soon as it goes live.Diving in
Diving right in I setup a Trello Kanban Board for Project Inception as follows:
Both Vision (Process, Product) and Candidate Architecture (Process, Product) jobs have been completed, and have been moved to the MVP 1 column. We know what we want to do, and we're doing it with Drupal 7, based on some initial configuration as a starting point (expressed both as an install profile and a drush configuration script). At this point there are three jobs in the To Do column, constituting the remaining preparation for the Team Product Kickoff. And two of them (setup for continuous integration and continuous delivery) are about to be made much easier by virtue of using platform.sh, not only as a home for the production instance, but as a central point of organization for the entire development and deployment process.Beginning Continuous Integration Workflow
What we'll be doing in this article:
- Overcoming the confusion between Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery
- Create Ansible playbook to create local development VM suitable for working with platform.sh
- Clone the playbook from GitHub into a workspace on local dev box and vagrant up
- ssh into the local dev box, log into platform.sh and manage ssh keys
- Get the project and sync the platform server and local databases
- Configure local dev virtual host and bring up website
- Exercise CI workflow by doing an upgrade and pushing via repo to platform
Drupal @ Penn State: Improve User Experience by Ajaxing Your Drupal Forms
Drupal's Form API has everything that we love about the Drupal framework. It's powerful, flexible, and easily extendable with our custom modules and themes. But lets face it; it's boooorrrrriinnnnggg. Users these days are used to their browsers doing the heavy lifting. Page reloads are becoming fewer and fewer, especially when we are expecting our users to take action on our websites. If we are asking our visitors to take time out of their day to fill out a form on our website, that form should be intuitive, easy to use, and not distracting.

Blue Drop Shop: Camp Record Beta Test Three: MidCamp 2015
After my #epicfail that was BADCamp, to say that I was entering MidCamp with trepidation would be the understatement of the year. Two full days of sessions and a 1-and-1 track record was weighing heavily upon my soul. Add to the mix that I was coming directly off of a 5-day con my company runs, and responsible for MidCamp venue and catering logistics. Oh right, and I ran out of time to make instructions and train anyone else on setup, which only added to my on-site burden.Testing is good.
After BADCamp, I added a powered 4-port USB hub to the kits, as well as an accessory pack for the H2N voice recorder, mainly for the powered A/C adapter and remote. All total, these two items bring the current cost of the kit to about $425.
In addition, at one of our venue walk-throughs, I was able to actually test the kits with the projectors UIC would be using. The units in two of the rooms had an unexplainable random few-second blackout of the screens, but the records were good and the rest of the rooms checked out.Success.
After the mad scramble setting up three breakout rooms and the main stage leading up to the opening keynote, I can't begin to describe the feeling in the pit of my stomach after I pulled the USB stick after stopping the keynote recording. I can't begin to describe the elation I felt after seeing a full record, complete with audio.
We hit a few snags with presenters not starting their records (fixable) and older PCs not connecting (possibly fixable), and a couple sessions that didn't have audio (hello redundancy from the voice recorder). Aside from that, froboy and I were able to trim and upload all the successful records during the Sunday sprint.
A huge shout out also goes to jason.bell for helping me on-site with setups and capture. He helped me during Fox Valley's camp, so I deputized him as soon as I saw him Friday morning.Learnings.
With the addition of the powered USB hub, we no longer need to steal any ports from the presenter laptop. For all of the first day, we were unnecessarily hooking up the hub's USB cable to the presenter laptop. Doing this caused a restart of the record kit. We did lose a session to a presenter laptop going to sleep, and I have to wonder whether we would have still captured it if the hub hadn't been attached.
The VGA to HDMI dongle is too unreliable to be part of the kit. When used, either there was no connection, or it would cycle between on and off. Most, if not all, machines that didn't have mini display port or direct HMDI out had full display port. I will be testing a display port to HDMI dongle for a more reliable option.
Redundant audio is essential. The default record format for the voice recorders is a WAV file. These are best quality, but enormous, which is why I failed at capturing most of BADCamp's audio (RTFM, right?). By changing the settings to 192kbs MP3, two days of session audio barely made a dent in the 2GB cards that are included with the recorders. Thankfully, this saved three session records: two with no audio at all (still a mystery) and one with blown out audio.
Trimming and combining in YouTube is a thing. Kudos again to froboy for pointing me to YouTube's editing capabilities. A couple sessions had split records (also a mystery), which we then stitched together after upload, and several sessions needed some pre- or post-record trimming. This can all be done in YouTube instead of using a video editor and re-encoding. Granted, YouTube takes what seems like forever to process, but it works and once you do the editing, you can forget about it.
There is a known issue with mini display port to HDMI where a green tint is added to the output. Setting the external PVR to 720p generally fixed this. There were a couple times where it didn't, but switching either between direct HDMI or mini display port to HDMI seemed to resolve most of the issues. Sorry for the few presenters that opted for funky colors before we learned this during the camp. The recording is always fine, but the on-site experience is borked.
Finally, we need to tell presenters to adjust their energy saver settings. I take this for granted, because the con my company runs is for marketing people who present frequently, and this is basically just assumed to be set correctly. We are a more casual bunch and don't fret when the laptop sleeps or the screen saver comes up during a presentation. Just move the cursor and roll with it. But that can kill a record...even with the Drupal Association kits. I do plan to test this, now that I've learned we don't need any power at all from the presenter laptop, but it's still an easy fix with documentation.Next steps.
Documentation. I need to make simple instructions sheets to include with the kits. Overall, they are really easy to use and connect, but it's completely unfamiliar territory. With foolproof instructions, presenters can be at ease and room monitors can be tasked with assisting without fear.
Packaging. With the mad dash to set these up — combined with hourly hookups — these were a hot mess on the podium. I'll be working to tighten these up so they look less intimidating and take up less space. No idea what this entails yet, so I'll gladly accept ideas.
Testing. As mentioned, I will test regular display port to HDMI, as well as various sleep states while recording.
Shipping. Because these kits are so light weight, part of the plan is to be able to share them with regional camps. There was a lot of interest from other organizers in these kits during the camp. Someone from Twin Cities even offered to purchase a kit to add to the mix, as long as they could borrow the others. A Pelican box with adjustable inserts would be just the ticket.
Sponsors. If you are willing to help finance this project, please contact me at email@example.com. While Fox Valley Camp owns three kits and MidCamp owns one, wouldn't it be great to have your branding on these as they make their way around the camp circuit? The equipment costs have (mostly) been reimbursed, but I've devoted a lot of time to testing and documenting the process, and will be spending more time with the next steps listed above.Tags:

DrupalOnWindows: Adding native JSON storage support in Drupal 7 or how to mix RDBM with NoSQL
I rencently read a very interesting article of an all time .Net developer comparing the MEAN stack (Mongo-Express-Angluar-Node) with traditional .Net application design. (I can't post the link because I'm unable to find the article!!).
Among other things he compared the tedious process of adding a new field in the RDBM model (modifying the database, then the data layer, then views and controllers), whereas in the MEAN stack it was as simple as adding two lines of code to the UI.More articles...

Chromatic: Integrating Recurly and Drupal
If you're working on a site that needs subscriptions, take a look at Recurly. Recurly's biggest strength is its simple handling of subscriptions, billing, invoices, and all that goes along with it. But how do you get that integrated into your Drupal site? Let's walk through it.There are a handful of pieces that work to connect your Recurly account and your Drupal site.
- The Recurly PHP library.
- The recurly.js library (optional, but recommended).
- The Recurly module for Drupal.
The first thing you need to do is bookmark is the Recurly API documentation.
Note: The Drupal Recurly module is still using v2 of the API. A re-write of the module to support v3 is in the works, but we have few active maintainers right now (few meaning one, and you're looking at her). If you find this module of use or potential interest, pop into the issue queue and lend a hand writing or reviewing patches!
I'll be using a new Recurly account and a fresh install of Drupal 7.35 on a local MAMP environment. I'll also be using drush as I go along (Not using drush?! Stop reading this and get it set up, then come back. Your life will be easier and you'll thank us.)
- The first step is to sign up at https://recurly.com/ and get your account set up with your subscription plan(s). Your account will start out in a sandbox mode, and once you have everything set up with Recurly (it's a paid service), you can switch to production mode. For our production site, we have a separate account that's entirely in sandbox mode just for dev and QA, which is nice for testing, knowing we can't break anything.
- Recurly is dependent on the Libraries module, so make sure you've got that installed (7.x-2.x version). drush dl libraries && drush en libraries
- You'll need the Recurly Client PHP library, which you'll need to put into sites/all/libraries/recurly. This is also an open-source, community-supported library, using v2 of the Recurly API. If you're using composer, you can set this as a dependency. You will probably have to make the libraries directory. From the root of your installation, run mkdir sites/all/libraries.
- You need the Recurly module, which comes with two sub-modules: Recurly Hosted Pages and Recurly.js. drush dl recurly && drush en recurly
- If you are using Recurly.js, you will need that library, v2 of which can be found here. This will need to be placed into sites/all/libraries/recurly-js.
Your /libraries/ directory should look something like this now:
You can just use the library and the module, which include some built-in pages and basic functionality. If you need a great deal of customization and your own functionality, this might be the option for you.
Recurly offers hosted pages, for which there is also a Drupal sub-module. This is the least amount of integration with Drupal; your site won't be handling any of the account management. If you are low on dev hours or availability, this may be a good option.
Thirdly, and this is the option we are using for one of our clients and demonstrating in this tutorial, you can use the recurly.js library (there is a sub-module to integrate this). Recurly.js is a client-side credit-card authorization service which keeps credit card data from ever touching your server. Users can then make payments directly from your site, but with much less responsibility on your end. You can still do a great deal of customization around the forms – this is what we do, as well as customized versions of the built-in pages.
Please note: Whichever of these options you choose, your site will still need a level of PCI-DSS Compliance (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard). You can read more about PCI Compliance here. This is not prohibitively complex or difficult, and just requires a self-assessment questionnaire.Settings
You should now have everything in the right place. Let's get set up.
- Go to yoursite.dev/admin/config (just click Configuration at the top) and you'll see Recurly under Web Services.
- You'll now see a form with a handful of settings. Here's where to find the values in your Recurly account. Once you set up a subscription plan in Recurly, you'll find yourself on this page. On the right hand side, go to API Credentials. You may have to scroll down or collapse some menus in order to see it.
- Your Private API Key is the first key found on this page (I've blocked mine out):
- Next, you'll need to go to Manage Transparent Post Keys on the right. You will not need the public key, as it's not used in Recurly.js v2.
- Click to Enable Transparent Post and Recurly.js v2 API.
- Now you'll see your key. This is the value you'll enter into the Transparent Post Private Key field.
- The last basic setup step is to enter your subdomain. The help text for this field is currently incorrect as of 3/26/2015 and will be corrected in the next release. It is correct in the README file, and on the project page. There is no longer a -test suffix for sandbox mode. Copy your subdomain either from the address bar or from the Site Settings. You don't need the entire url, so in my case, the subdomain is alanna-demo.
- With these settings, you can accept the rest of the default values and be ready to go. The rest of the configuration is specific to how you'd like to set up your account, how your subscription is configured, what fields you want to record in Recurly, how much custom configuration you want to do, and what functionality you need. The next step, if you are using Recurly's built-in pages, is to enable your subscription plans. In Drupal, head over to the Subscription Plans tab and enable the plans you want to use on your site. Here I've just created one test plan in Recurly. Check the boxes next to the plan(s) you want enabled, and click Update Plans.
So you have Recurly integrated, but how are people going to use it on your Drupal site? Good question. For this tutorial, we'll use Recurly.js. Make sure you enable the submodule if you haven't already: drush en recurlyjs. Now you'll see some new options on the Recurly admin setting page.
I'm going to keep the defaults for this example. Now when you go to a user account page, you'll see a Subscription tab with the option to sign up for a plan.
Clicking Sign up will bring you to the signup page provided by Recurly.js.
After filling out the fields and clicking Purchase, you'll see a handful of brand new tabs. I set this subscription plan to have a trial period, which is reflected here.
Keep in mind, this is the default Drupal theme with no styling applied at all. If you head over to your Recurly account, you'll see this new subscription.
There are a lot of configuration options, but your site is now integrated with Recurly. You can sign up, change, view, and cancel accounts. If you choose to use coupons, you can do that as well, and we've done all of this without any custom code.
If you have any questions, please read the documentation, or head over to the Recurly project page on Drupal.org and see if it's answered in the issue queue. If not, make sure to submit your issue so that we can address it!

My 2 for 1 Crepe Myrtle
Yes, this is one plant has been this way for years, thought maybe one color would take over, but nope, is not going to happen, and I love it!
That is SO cool!
Did you do this yourself?
All my crepe myrtles are done blooming already . . . you're doubly lucky!
I had a different weird thing happen with a crepe myrtle. Many years ago, when I was more clueless, I got a bunch of little 1' tall tree seedlings from the Arbor Day foundation. One was a crepe myrtle, which I planted in a mostly shady spot. (Did I mention I was more clueless then?) Of course, it was spindly, leggy, got mildew every summer, grew slowly, and generally looked pathetic. It bloomed a little, with pale lavender blooms. I finally decided it wasn't ever going to do anything and I didn't much care for the bloom color, since pale lavender kind of disappears in front of gray siding. So, I cut it back to the ground.
It grew back. I cut it back again and even yanked out some of the root. It grew back. I cut it back again. When it came back after my third attempt at crepe murder, I decided that if the plant was THAT determined to live, I should let it.
And so I have, for years. It's a spindly single trunk plant now, about 8' tall. As it gets taller, it comes out of the shade earlier in the day. By the time it's 15' tall maybe it'll get enough sun to fill out and actually be an attractive plant, heh. But here's the kicker: the blooms are now a deep pink.
Maybe it's a new plant the grew from seeds dropped by the original...but this came up in *exactly* the same spot as the lavender plant I cut down over and over. Also, there was never a tiny seedling stage - the plant got big fast the way you'd expect from an established plant returning from the roots. Still, I can't imagine the Arbor Day folks would go to the expense of sending grafted plants as their new member freebies. Does anyone even graft crepe myrtles, anyway? Maybe a myrtle fairy visited me some night and planted this pink one. Maybe somehow seeds from my other crepe (a similar, but somewhat darker pink) made their way all the way across the yard and around the garage to this exact spot. I just don't know.
In any case, "the crepe that would not die" has now earned its place in my yard, ugly or not. I just hope that in time it will develop an attractive shape to go with the pretty bloom color and tough-as-nails constitution.
Very nice. Happy to see my little crepe blooming nicely this year after weevils absolutely destroyed it last year. I see some this year but not nearly in the same numbers. I just drove from Atlanta to Birmingham and they are literally everywhere there, and just beautiful.

A Poem About Episode SixA Poem About Episode Six3 years ago in Visual Poetry More Like This
Welcome to Episode Six,
This time out is the final time out,
Before Episode One.
Catching up from where Five left off,
Return of the Jedi.
It won't be easy as they'll find.
They go to rescue Han.
R2 and C3P0 make first contact
And it goes really bad.
End up scared out of their wits.
Chewie is next to show up,
Captured by a bounty hunter.
But the bounty hunter's fake.
It's actually Princess Leia,
She frees Han and gets captured.
Jabba The Hutt takes to her,
She'll be enslaved like Oola was,
But she'll try and hang around.
Luke finally decides to show.
Calls himself a Jedi knight,
But like a fool he's down the pit.
He meets the Rancor with a pig.
Nearly gets kills by it,
But turns things around.
Lando in his good disguise,
Watches as Luke and Han,
Are sentenced to their deaths.
Leia in a gold bikini.
Lucky Han doesn't have his sight,
He would be surprised!
On the barge and to the pit.
Sentenced to be fed to the Sarlacc.
But things don't go so smooth.
Luke makes his great esc
She Slips AwayShe Slips Away5 years ago in Urban & Spoken Word More Like This
She's dying.
Fading into an oblivion
Deeper than which my old apprentice has fallen.
I can't pull her back.
Don't surrender Padmé.
Tired of trying
Hurting from crying,
She knows something pure:
Anakin will return.
How does she know?
She surrenders to their love
Trust in the twins being loved,
Telling me what she knows,
There is still good in him.
Why does she have to die?
I can only watch.
Holding this new life,
Watching the old one burn
And fade away.
Please Padmé, find the strength.
Begging her to thrive
Raise Luke and Leia.
I'll be at your side.
I'll help you train them
Their force signature strong.
Padmé's is not.
The will to live
Has died with Anakin,
She and I both know it:
Vader is born.
She slips away.

Australian Gov't Loses Privacy Alert Subscription Information In the Mail 33
from the this-is-a-data-breach 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).
The antipodes is a strange region of the Earth where everything is opposite: up is down, left is right, day is night, and most alarmingly, the water flushes down the toilet in the wrong direction. For this reason, you need to be very careful when trying to understand what an Australian is saying. Don't worry about people from New Zealand, they only talk to sheep.
So first:
"As an Australian, I'd like to announce a new definition of the 'Irony.'"
What this means is that we have a new definition of common sense. However, I am a little confused, because the person says "As an Australian." Australians usually indicate they are Australian by saying "I am not Australian."
"A government contractor put a list of users and details in the mail and it was lost. The list contained users subscribed to the government's privacy breach alert system."
Now, here in the Northern Hemisphere, this doesn't make any sense. But again, being as this happened in the antipodes, this is just common practical policy.
So this is a bit of a nonstory here. Which I am saying in the Northern Hemisphere sense, and not in the antipodean sense, where calling something a nonstory would indicate that this is really a notable story.
People will buy anything that's one to a customer.

Perhaps the biggest flaw on the part of 'Bombay Talkies' filmmakers.
Abhishek Bachchan has revealed that his family has no immediate plans to introduce his baby daughter to the world as his grandmother has asked them not to release any pictures right now.
An internal memo has been sent to all the leading news channels by the Broadcast Editors' Association to restrict the coverage of Aishwarya Rai's delivery.
The Bachchan's hosted a gala Diwali party at their home, Jalsa, and the who's who of the film industry was part of the guest list.
Jailed politico Amar Singh, who not so long ago was a staunch Big B supporter, has been completely ignored by the Bachchan family. Once a 'chota bhai,' Amar Singh used to sit right next to the Bachchans at prominent award shows only to be snubbed at a time when the politician faces a crisis of a lifetime.
Stories of fans` eccentricity for their loved stars are plenty, but here's an example which transcends the barrier of fanaticism.
The IIFA awards, which kickstarts in Toronto from tomorrow, will be missing some starry glitter this year with the absence of regulars like Bachchan family and Salman Khan.
Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma has scothed reports of a rift with the Bachchans after his recent announcement to replace Abhishek in his upcoming film `Department` and says that his relation with them is "sacred".
"I highly respect Mr Bachchan and am highly affectionate towards Abhishek and the reasons for changes in `Department` are nothing but date issues," Varma said on micro-blogging site Twitter.
Ram Gopal Varma has run into yet another controversy- something he isn't alien to. The filmmaker, who has recently been held guilty of ridiculing Rohan Sippy's 'Dum Maro Dum' starring Abhishek Bachchan, has made his stance very clear on a social networking site. He has also talked about his equation with the Bachchan family and what they mean to him.
Sanjay Dutt has been angered by the people who are spreading rumours.
This year, the Bachchan family is one of the highest tax paying family of the entertainment industry.
The Bachchans are furious over media reports suggesting that Aishwarya is having trouble conceiving.

I was replacing the screen of my htc one x and using some youtube videos as reference to how I should do it. The screen worked fine but as I was putting the cover back on the cellphone, I noticed the screen was showing a weird static-y rainbow image. I disassembled the phone to see if there were any snapped wires/something unplugged, but everything seemed fine. When I put everything back together, now the vibrating piece isn't working, and the screen is still displaying the static problem. Any way to fix this? Thanks...

The shepherd was watching his sheep grazing outside the city of Giza, Egypt. We left Cairo and we were heading to the Pyramids of Giza were I capture this photo. Besides sheep one could find camels and donkeys living among the people here in Giza. One would see the animals on the lower levels of the houses or often outside here like these sheep grazing.
