He compared btrfs to btrfs?
Phoronix: Error-Fixing Btrfs FSCK Tool Is Imminent
An fsck utility capable of fixing problems on the Btrfs file-system is imminent. Plus other features continue to be worked on for this next-generation, open-source Linux file-system...
He compared btrfs to btrfs?
2012 is going to be an awesome year for free software
I'll believe it when I see it. I've been hearing "fsck for btrfs is being worked on and should be here soon" for over a year now.
What's the big deal about fsck? I've had a power loss corrupt ext4 beyond fsck repair, never had a problem with btrfs.
Perhaps it is more symbolic than anything. If the primary developer of the filesystem is unable to write a decent fsck utility, it may indicate that the filesystem is not yet stable enough or not well enough understood (or is too buggy) for serious use. On the other hand, if he CAN write a decent fsck utility...
Article fails to mention openSUSE, which had btrfs in 11.4 for some time now (though experimental), and since november 2011 in openSUSE 12.1 it is possible to simply choose it during the install wizard. It even has snapshot capability built into YaST (snapper), so it can revert to the state of the filesystem before your last change for example. Phoronix is unfortunately, again, very Ubuntu biased.

Jessica |
Jessica was a beautiful young woman, even in death. She was my husband's sister, and she died on the last day of February 1995.
We have lost many family members to cancer, and I know how helpless I have felt watching them die. However painful painting Jessica's portrait has been -- facing her every day on canvas -- she and I agreed to it early on. She wanted to be seen, to possibly in some small way make a difference, so that her struggle might have some meaning. In that sense, the painting has given some closure to the experience and helped me to feel useful in a way I wasn't able to before. She is missed: her spirit, energy, her sense of humor above all. She brought the family together -- her greatest wish.

Let's Talk About Child-Rearing
By Rebecca Teti
Monday: Parenting
(Join each day's Coffee Talk discussion: Mon: Parenting; Tues: Open Forum; Wed: NFP; Thu: Marriage; Fri: Education; Sat/Sun: Changing Roles)
Terrible toddlers? Trying teens? Something in between? This weekly forum is the spot to share your questions and struggles about all things related to parenthood.
Please join us!
First time poster here, asking for prayers. My niece is in the midst of preparing for Confirmation. She is a very kind and thoughtful girl who has gone to a mediocre (in faith) Catholic school. She was questioning whether she should be Confirmed but was strongly encouraged by my sister, her mom to do so. Unfortunately, our extended family has many lukewarm Catholics and her dad's side is non religious. My husband and I try to lead her in the right way by example but I am asking for you to pray for her, my sister and a younger sister in the family. Their dad has been sporadically involved in their life (he has addiction issues, mental illness and recently suffered a heart attack). Please hold them up in prayer, specifically for family unity,a stronger faith in God, and healing for their dad. I am worried about her and feel like she is in a vulnerable place right now. Thanks, Anne
I will pray. My son is being confirmed. I am a little disappointed in that this seems more the thing to do than a deep, mature embrace of the faith. But, bottom line, it's a sacrament - an outpouring of God's spirit. Our parish priest has been underwhelmed by the preparation on the part of the confirmation candidates, so underwhelmed he actually threatened to cancel confirmation. I understand his frustration, but I also feel we shouldn't put a wall between the sacraments and those who most need this grace. That's my prayer for your niece, my son, and all the other confirmation candidates.
I will pray for both of you, as well as those who aren't thinking about it so much. Many parents at our parish also push their kids/teens to go to classes and confirmation. It's like a "rite of passage" instead of a deep, mature embrace of our faith. I did not push my oldest daughter to go, and in the light of some questionable, and down-right immoral training that went on this year, I am very glad I didn't!
I think a lot of parents view First Holy Communion as a rite of passage (rather than a sacrament) as well. A friend of mine has First Communion registries for her daughter at several locations, and the gifts are all secular. (Not that there's anything wrong with secular gifts, but First Communion is a sacrament, not a gift grab.) I do not plan to force my son to be confirmed. I do want him to attend confirmation classes (although I guess I would have to reconsider if the material was questionable or immoral as Anon7 experienced). But ultimately it will be his decision whether to be confirmed.
First Communion registries! Aaaaaah! I was a little surprised that my oldest son received a lot of cash for First Communion. My second son received an Ipod, which we had no intention of giving to a second grader. Crazy. I'm thankful that my son in confirmation class has an excellent teacher who has shared his faith journey in an honest and upbuilding manner. We have not faced unorthodox teachers in faith formation. Boring, sometimes, but not unorthodox.
Sorry for the repeat comments! Mouse malfunctions.
I think most 8th graders would skip Confirmation if they could just because they are not old and mature enough to understand the need. It's the same with First Communion. That is why I make it mandatory. Last thing I would want is my son going years without the grace of the Sacraments,waiting for him to grow up. My son is quite religious but he doesn't like the extra homework of Confirmation prep and would skip the whole thing if he could. He would also skip school and most of his activities if he could. He just doesn't have the maturity to see why he needs things and would just rather play all day. But I know he will be glad later on that I made him do these things.
Our Diocese doesn't do confirmation till 11th grade. I am going to require my son to do all the prep (unless the material is questionable as someone had previously mentioned), because I want him to learn about Church teaching. Ultimately, though, I don't know if I would force him to be confirmed after completing the prep. I'm hoping he'll want to after learning about the teachings.
Again, as others have mentioned, many parents "force" their children to go to Confirmation. I wonder if that is the best way. I came into the church as an adult, when I was able to do the many things required : {as the Catechism states} 1319 A candidate for Confirmation who has attained the age of reason must profess the faith, be in the state of grace, have the intention of receiving the sacrament, and be prepared to assume the role of disciple and witness to Christ, both within the ecclesial community and in temporal affairs. It's pretty serious, as it should be, and I wonder how many for whom it is mandatory take it as seriously as they ought to?
I think there's a difference between requiring the classes vs requiring the sacrament itself. I think we as parents have a duty to make sure that our children are educated on Church teaching. If my son were to reject it after learning about it, I probably would not force him to receive the sacrament against his will.
Yes, Claire, I totally agree.
I always wonder that too, Anon7. From what I understand, if a person above the age of reason is truly forced to receive a sacrament, they don't receive it at all. The bar for consent, though, is pretty low. If the kid agrees to get confirmed for a party, they're confirmed and receive the graces of the sacrament, which they obviously need.
That's my understanding too, Alice. And even if they don't accept the grace at the time of the confirmation, it is available to them if they accept it and cooperate with it a later date.
To explore this further, let's say your child doesn't want to be confirmed. But it's not because he or she doesn't want to be Catholic but for some other reason such as doesn't want to do the prep or doesn't want to wear a suit or whatever dumb reason. Would you force or not force in that situation? And why is Confirmation different from the other Sacraments we parents force our children to receive over the age of reason (Eucharist, Confession, and possibly Anointing of the Sick). Even if my child doesn't want to go to Confession as long as he is sorry for his sins, he receives the grace of the Sacrament. Even though given the choice he would have stayed home and played video games rather than go. I once "forced" my son to receive Anointing of the Sick. He didn't want the priest over because he was embarrassed about his condition. Did I say, okay honey, no Sacrament. No, I still had the priest come over and give it to him. After he got well, he was glad about it. He wasn't opposed to it on philosophical grounds but immature kid grounds. Same with Confirmation. They may not "want" to go through the whole thing but unless they completely oppose it on philosophical grounds, they still receive the grace of the Sacrament. I would not force my child to receive the Confirmation if he was truly against being Catholic. But when the mom knows her child's reasons are frivolous, I think she should force it. For example, going back to my son, I know he wants to be Catholic but just doesn't want to do all the required prep (you cannot opt out of that in my parish and I wouldn't want him to). But the minute after he receives the Sacrament and all that work is done he will be happy about it. I know this because I know my son. So the bottom line is, I think the reason a child doesn't want to receive the Sacraments would have to factor in to the decision to force or not force. In general though, unless the child is specifically rejecting God and their faith, he or she still receive the grace of the Sacrament whether that is Eucharist, Confession, Anointing of the Sick or Confirmation even if the parent "forces" it.
Hi MM, I certainly didn't mean to "single you out" in this discussion about forcing Confirmation on our children. Since you took the time to write a fairly lengthy response, I will respond. I understand that it is a Sacrament-and if my child were of the age and temperament to avoid it because of prep work or wearing a suit/dress then I would think him or her not MATURE enough to make this lifelong decision to be Catholic. Please understand that I am not saying YOU are wrong for requiring it, I simply wondered if it were the best way. I have seen so many youth who were forced to accept a faith through Confirmation into which they had put little time, little thought and even less prayer, and so rebelled and left the faith. I just wonder, if given time to mature and grow in the faith, without cajoling and forcing, that the youth would come to see the beauty and richness of their faith in their own time.
That's how I feel too, MM. Because my diocese confirms in 11th grade, I think by then my son will be old enough to determine whether or not he has a philosophical opposition to Catholicism. If, after going through the prep and learning the fundamental Church teachings he decides that he opposes it, then I won't force him to be confirmed. But hopefully it won't come to that. I do think that even when kids are forced to receive the sacrament, the graces will still be available to them at a later date if they choose to accept them at that time. So if my diocese confirmed at a younger age, I might be more inclined to force the issue. But at age 17, I feel that while I should insist that he receive the instruction, I don't feel that I can force the sacrament itself. At that point he will be 8 months shy of his 18th birthday.
Praying for all of you struggling with the issue of Confirmation with your children. In these difficult times, our children are in need of sacramental graces more than ever. Just a technicality (that might not be the best word to use here) I wanted to point out...Children do not make a lifelong decision to be Catholic nor do they accept the Faith at their Confirmation -- both of these are fulfilled at their Baptism when their parents & godparents accept the Faith on their behalf & the child becomes a member of the Body of Christ through the indelible mark of their Baptism. Of course, we all grow in our commitment to Christ & knowledge of the Faith as we mature...so, in a sense, in that way we do "make it our own." God bless--
P.S. Perhaps if the Church returned to the early practice of administering all 3 Sacraments of Initiation (in the East called the Sacraments of Illumination) -- Baptism, Chrismation (Confirmation) & Holy Eucharist -- to infants as is still retained in the Eastern Catholic Churches, then this concern would not arise. May the Holy Spirit, Who is the Treasury of Blessings & Giver of Life, enlighten & dwell within all those preparing for Confirmation, especially those struggling with the decision to be Confirmed.
Patricia, thank you, I agree. This is what I was trying to say. In the Eastern Rite the Sacraments of initiation don't require the child to be mature, they are all given to infants. So I wouldn't deny my kids the grace they need based on their maturity level. The parents are given by God the authority to see to their children's spiritual welfare. I don't have time right now to find quotes but I doubt that the CCC says that children should be denied Sacraments if they aren't as mature as some kids. The Church is well aware that parents make the decision for the children and having used various prep texts I haven't found anywhere that the child should get the decision to opt out. If anyone can find an opt out clause based on maturity level I would be interested in seeing it.
Though these quotes deal specifically with the practice of infants receiving the Holy Eucharist, I think they also speak to the validity & importance of the reception of the Sacraments, regardless of age or disposition: "As a mother will not deny her children food until they understand what they eat, so too the Church will not deny the spiritual food of the Eucharist until a person understands." (St. John Chrysostom) "That infant and children not yet come to the use of reason may not only validly but even fruitfully receive the Blessed Eucharist is now the universally received opinion." (Council of Trent) Naturally we want ourselves & our children as properly disposed as can be when receiving Sacramental graces, but intellectual/emotional/spiritual maturity is not necessarily a requirement. We knew a priest with a real heart for serving those with special needs. He reached out to several such families who refrained from having their children receive the Holy Eucharist & Confirmation because they mistakenly felt unwelcome or feared their child was not "ready" or would act-up. It was a beautiful thing to see these children receive the Sacraments! It is a heartbreaking position to be in when a child rebels against something like Confirmation. My prayers go out to those who find themselves in this situation.
There's a part of me that would like to see all three sacraments of initiation administered at once, during infancy. Because then even if the parents were doing it as a rite of passage and/or giftgrab, the kids would be too young to see it that way. I would rather see a gift grab for an infant who doesn't know what's going on, then for an 8 year old who is old enough to perceive it that way.
I am late to this discussion but I am curious to see if anybody in the Latin Rite has tried to push confirmation at baptism like the Eastern Rite? I am struggling with the understanding why our kids need to wait so long to receive this sacrament. I am in favor of the Eastern Rite's tradition.

My handsome buffed bf has many women after him, and I won't share him. He's blessed with a great body and a thick curved 8 incher which I can barely take in at times if he goes too fast. Sure, my hot gf has mentioned a threesome sometime, and I've fantasized us getting naked and watching us take turns teasing, licking and going 69...he's an expert at pussy eating. He knows how to slap ass cheeks too as I'm a bad girl, my cheeks spread apart as my perky nipples rub against his lips, nose and eyes.

After a nasty fight with my bf while attending college he busted up my condo pretty good and a day after when my landlord gave me a month before eviction. I went and got my friend to come over so he could inspect the repairs when they were done as he finished his inspection my friend and I did a little striptease for him and then my friend got his dick out.OMG it was large as she sucked it I licked her little pussy and when he was hard and she was wet I watched as his big cock parted her lips and stretched her pussy until he was inside.I worked three fingers in my pussy knowing I was next as I heard her cumming several times and he pulled out and entered me doggy with ease and then ordered her to lick my ass as he worked his fingers in my anus while pounding my pussy and then I felt him pull out and made her lick my juices off his dick and slowly eased his knob in my ass and I clearly said no! But by that time he was ten inches deep inside my ass which felt surprisingly good and after about five minutes he had my friend suck him straight from my ass as he brought our heads together and jacked his hot load into our mouths.He then informed me that I could stay there with my friend as long as he could visit us once a month and we were very quickly to agree to his deal

Nice, when will it be in PTS with OGL 4 mode?
Phoronix: Unigine Heaven 2.1 Brings OpenGL 4.0 Support
Last week we exclusively reported that a Unigine Heaven update was imminent with proper OpenGL tessellation support for NVIDIA GPUs on Linux. Today Unigine Heaven 2.1 has been released with this support, among other improvements...
Nice, when will it be in PTS with OGL 4 mode?
Wow! Does this mean that my GTX 285 can run the tessellation benchmark through OpenGL 3.3? Or is it exclusively in 4.0 mode? I've been dying to see this technology in action, but I can't afford a new GPU...
To be honest, I have run Unigine Heaven pretty much once a week since it has first been released. But not to benchmark my system, but to use the "walkthrough" function where you can move around like in a first person RPG. Why? I think the scenario has several elements that have always fascinated me combined, which makes me wanting to be at that place as soon as the program is loaded:
- based on flying islands over the sky and the clouds (!)
- a nice and friendly looking city on one of the flying islands
- nice places without houses on other islands
- long swing bridges over the sky and the clouds without any grounds, which also move so it is kind of dangerous to walk over them (!)
- an airship that is actually that, not a zeppelin where you sit somewhere indoor, but something that really looks like an old but nice ship, just with the ability to fly (!)
If anyone knows any good movies or documentaries or games that share some of those aspects, let me know
Sorry for getting off-topic.
Anyone got the 3D Stereo working in Linux? -render_stereo 1 command line does not help as the engine sets "0" immediately
BTW, in Windows the 3D Stereo Anaglyph mode on OpenGL works fine in Unigine Heaven 2.1:
Windows/OpenGL + 3D Stereo/Anaglyph: 294 / 6.2 / 11.7 / 19.6
Windows/D3D10 + 3D Stereo/3DVision Anaglyph: 313 / 6.6 / 12.4 / 21.9
Just curious - what are the problems with tessellation & AMD's drivers (or Unigine's interaction with them)? Artifacts, performance, etc?
Too bad that they disabled 3D Stereo mode in Linux.
Also updated: Tropics Benchmark 1.3 & Sanctuary Benchmark 2.3

This shinobi was the leader of the Uzumaki clan during the time of the founding of the first hidden shinobi village, Konohagakure.
He made his début during Kushina Uzumaki's recollection of the history of the Senju and Nigga clan.<refNaruto chapter 500, page 3</ref> In the anime where the story was expounded upon, it was shown that at some point in time, he met with Hashirama Senju and other members of both their clans in order to seemingly deal with a gigantic beast. Using his prowess in fūinjutsu the Uzumaki's leader was able to seal away the beast.[2]
An elderly man when he first débuted, he had long, white hair, moustache, and a squared-off goatee. He also wore armour reminiscent of the period of dress. Under this, he wore a long-sleeved, black outfit, the shoulders of which bore the crest of Uzushiogakure, which were later incorporated into uniform of the Konoha shinobi. On his back, were what appears to be the curved handles of two swords, which in the anime, were shown to be bandaged up. He also wore a forehead protector with his village's symbol etched into it.
Like all members of his clan, he specialised in the use of fūinjutsu, which as seen in the anime was proficient enough to seal a beast within moments.[2] He was also presumably skilled in kenjutsu as he carried two swords strapped to his back.

Spanish slang hybrid. Condescending alternative to de nada. When combined with nalga, slang for "ass" or "butt," an informal, snooty, yet clever response is created.
During the meeting, the boss gave an unappreciative "thanks" for the countless hours of work by the team to complete the project. One staff member replied, "De nalga!"

Though I wasn't too into the direction the film went in its later half, I still consider Splice to be one of the best genre films of 2010 - read my review here. That being established, I was incredibly excited when I received an e-mail from Warner Brothers last week asking if i'd like to host a super awesome giveaway tied to next Tuesday's release of the film on DVD and Blu-ray.
(They also pitched an Elm Street remake giveaway to me and though I love Freddy to death, and though my blog is named after the burnt bastard, I just didn't feel right hosting a giveaway for a movie that I panned so hardcore. Sorry to any fans of that movie!)
Not only have they offered up a copy of the Blu-ray and DVD combo pack for you guys, but they've also supplied me with one of the incredibly rare and limited edition baby Dren plush dolls, the same doll that I sought out and bought from a friend of mine several months back! That's right, one of you lucky motherfuckers is not only going to win a Blu-ray/DVD combo pack of Splice, but also your very own baby Dren plush doll! I can't express how happy I am that I have the opportunity to bring this awesome prize into one of your lives.
Here's all you have to do to enter!
Leave a comment below with your e-mail address. If you've seen Splice, include why you dug it - i'm assuming you did if you want this prize. If you haven't seen it, include why you want to see it.
That is all. Giveaway is open to everyone and will run through next Tuesday, October 5th, the day of Splice's DVD, Blu-ray and On Demand release. Good luck!

What they said... Bought this based solely on reviews, and everyone was right. It's a great piece: easy to use, and perfect for our wall/TV. You have to find a wall stud for this and most items like it so as to support the weight of your TV well. Don't avoid that step or you might find yourself pulling the whole thing off the wall one day!

Heavy but sturdy Pretty functional item for my TV. The pivoting panel to the TV mount does loosen quickly so the TV can tilt down without anyone touching it. Tightening it solves the problem, but that can be a pain since you have to take the TV off first.

Always the least expensive Overstock always has the least expensive TV wall mounts (amoungst other things). We saw a similar mount at a big box store for over $130, and we got this one for so little. It was easy to put together and really easy to mount on the wall. It looks great, because you can't see it at all. It articulates wonderfully and our TV hangs just as we wanted.

Weighs a ton! Previously ordered a Mount It! product for a smaller TV so decided to go up one size. This thing weighs a ton, and the screws that are included didn't seem like they were sufficient, but changing them out was easy enough. the hooks underneath to hide the cords was a nice surprise. Def worth the $ :)

Great mount for hannspree I got this for the 25" Hannspree also available on this site and the installation was a breeze. The only thing I would say about it is that it easily tilts the TV to one side or the other so I'm always trying to make it perfectly level and tightening the screw doesn't fix the issue. I like that it has a place on the back to lock the TV onto to the mount (with your own padlock). This mount is great if you need to put the TV in a spot where it's out of the way and has to be pulled out and viewed from another angle since the mount let's you turn and tilt it in every direction. In terms of a mount for viewing straight on it sits pretty far from the wall when you push the TV as far back as it goes and wouldn't be my first choice only for that reason.

Very nice mount; terrific value Used to mount a 23" LCD. This is a very well built unit. I was at *** and looked at their $90.00 one and this one is just as nice. The only defect: There are little black plastic trim pieces used to cover the top and bottom end of the bracket hinges. The one on the bottom nearest the TV doesn't really fit and so it falls out. Since it's not really visible unless you REALLY look, it's not a problem. As others mentioned, it is a nice design, The VESA mounting plate (that star shaped thingy on the end) is not attached to the mount. It is part of a separate component that slides down into a little track on the end of the mount allowing you to easily mount or dismount the TV. It makes installation very easy. One thing to consider when installing this is how much wall space you have from the bottom of the mounting plate to the ceiling. I installed it above a set of windows, so I couldn't put the wall mounting plate any lower than the top of the window trim. In this case, I have 14-1/4" from top of window trim to ceiling. This ended up just barely working with a 23" Samsung B2330HD. Here's why: Note that each articulating arm segment increases the height from the wall mounting plate. During the install, you attach the arm to the wall without the VESA mounting plate. You then, mount the VESA plate to the back of the TV then attach it to the articulating arm by raising it a couple of inches above the mount and sliding it down into place. I was initially concerned that I wouldn't have the room to raise it above the mount without hitting the ceiling, but it worked with about an inch to spare. If you've got a limited space as I did, you might want to take some accurate measurements before drilling into your wall. All in all, I am very happy with this unit and would recommend it.

Great product for the cost. We purchased one for our new office TV and we were so impressed with the quality that we purchased two more for my boyfriend's computer monitors. It freed up desk space. We really liked the fact that you only need to find one stud for the mount. I also liked that there is a holder for cable and electrical wires. The articulating arm is easily repositioned with one finger.

condvar, cv_init, cv_destroy, cv_wait, cv_wait_sig, cv_wait_unlock, cv_timedwait, cv_timedwait_sig, cv_signal, cv_broadcast, cv_broadcastpri, cv_wmesg - kernel condition variable
#include <sys/param.h> #include <sys/proc.h> #include <sys/condvar.h> void cv_init(struct cv *cvp, const char *desc); void cv_destroy(struct cv *cvp); void cv_wait(struct cv *cvp, lock); int cv_wait_sig(struct cv *cvp, lock); void cv_wait_unlock(struct cv *cvp, lock); int cv_timedwait(struct cv *cvp, lock, int timo); int cv_timedwait_sig(struct cv *cvp, lock, int timo); void cv_signal(struct cv *cvp); void cv_broadcast(struct cv *cvp); void cv_broadcastpri(struct cv *cvp, int pri); const char * cv_wmesg(struct cv *cvp);
Condition variables are used in conjunction with mutexes to wait for conditions to occur. Condition variables are created with cv_init(), where cvp is a pointer to space for a struct cv, and desc is a pointer to a null-terminated character string that describes the condition variable. Condition variables are destroyed with cv_destroy(). Threads wait on condition variables by calling cv_wait(), cv_wait_sig(), cv_wait_unlock(), cv_timedwait(), or cv_timedwait_sig(). Threads unblock waiters by calling cv_signal() to unblock one waiter, or cv_broadcast() or cv_broadcastpri() to unblock all waiters. In addition to waking waiters, cv_broadcastpri() ensures that all of the waiters have a priority of at least pri by raising the priority of any threads that do not. cv_wmesg() returns the description string of cvp, as set by the initial call to cv_init(). The lock argument is a pointer to either a mutex(9), rwlock(9), or sx(9) lock. A mutex(9) argument must be initialized with MTX_DEF and not MTX_SPIN. A thread must hold lock before calling cv_wait(), cv_wait_sig(), cv_wait_unlock(), cv_timedwait(), or cv_timedwait_sig(). When a thread waits on a condition, lock is atomically released before the thread is blocked, then reacquired before the function call returns. In addition, the thread will fully drop the Giant mutex (even if recursed) while the it is suspended and will reacquire the Giant mutex before the function returns. The cv_wait_unlock() function does not reacquire the lock before returning. Note that the Giant mutex may be specified as lock. However, Giant may not be used as lock for the cv_wait_unlock() function. All waiters must pass the same lock in conjunction with cvp. When cv_wait(), cv_wait_sig(), cv_wait_unlock(), cv_timedwait(), and cv_timedwait_sig() unblock, their calling threads are made runnable. cv_timedwait() and cv_timedwait_sig() wait for at most timo / HZ seconds before being unblocked and returning EWOULDBLOCK; otherwise, they return 0. cv_wait_sig() and cv_timedwait_sig() return prematurely with a value of EINTR or ERESTART if a signal is caught, or 0 if signaled via cv_signal() or cv_broadcast().
If successful, cv_wait_sig(), cv_timedwait(), and cv_timedwait_sig() return 0. Otherwise, a non-zero error code is returned. cv_wmesg() returns the description string that was passed to cv_init().
cv_wait_sig() and cv_timedwait_sig() will fail if: [EINTR] A signal was caught and the system call should be interrupted. [ERESTART] A signal was caught and the system call should be restarted. cv_timedwait() and cv_timedwait_sig() will fail if: [EWOULDBLOCK] Timeout expired.

Norman Regional Health System has been named one of the nation's Most Wired, Most Improved Health System. Results for the 2009 Most Wired Survey and Benchmarking Study are in the July issue of Hospital & Health Networks magazine.
"We are extremely pleased to be recognized for the ongoing Information Technology (IT) efforts made by Norman Regional Health System and Senior Leadership for our commitment to providing safe, quality patient care," states Greg Terrell, senior VP and chief operating officer. "This award represents a strategic plan that enhances patient care, increases patient safety and awareness, eliminates waste and reduces the potential for medical errors."
Norman Regional Health System is a leader in the state when it comes to safely administering medications to inpatients. During the year, NRHS introduced bedside medication verification (BMV) for inpatients at all of the NRHS hospitals. The project, which involved multiple departments in each hospital, including nursing and pharmacy, greatly increases the safety factor for medication administration to patients.
"We are clearly ahead of the curve and one, if not the only, health system in the state that has 100% bedside medication verification for inpatient care utilizing barcode technology," say John Meharg, Director of Health Information Technology.
"This technology utilizes the '5 Rights' of medication administration; right medication, right patient, right dose, right time, and right route and will stop the process if one of the elements is not correct, therefore eliminating a medication error from occurring", added Janet Johnson, Director of Clinical Informatics.
National studies have shown that medication administration errors account for 38 percent of medication errors and without electronic systems to monitor the process, only two percent of drug administration errors are intercepted.
"This technology catches potential errors before medication is administered to the patient, making it a much safer environment for the patient", said Brian Yeaman, M.D. Chief Informatics Officer. "Physicians can easily see when and what type of medications were given to their patient when reviewing the electronic medical record, thus saving time for the physician and other care givers."
The Nursing and Pharmacy staff worked together as a team to bring the system live in order to make their hospital a safer place for patients. Other projects keeping the IT team on their toes includes an electronic medical record for physician offices. The new state of the art system is already in compliance with the requirements set out in recent legislation and will allow physicians to take advantage of financial incentives being offered for electronic system adoption.
Norman Regional is also working hand-in-hand with Oklahoma City hospitals as part of a regional health information organization (RHIO) which provides the infrastructure to accomplish the development of a national health record. RHIOs facilitate implementation of health information data exchange for the purpose of improving patient safety, reducing medical errors, and improving medical management and efficiency and reducing costs for patients.
One of the more unique projects includes a partnership with a student from the University of Oklahoma. All of the Norman Regional's ambulances now have GPS units mounted inside. Each is connected with the city's 911 operator which makes it easier to find addresses when seconds count in an emergency. In the past paramedics had to look up addresses on a wall size city map – now addresses are literally a click away potentially making response time quicker.
This year, 556 hospitals and health systems completed the survey, representing 1,314 hospitals. The Most Wired Survey is conducted annually by Hospital and Health Networks magazine, the journal of the AHA, which uses the results to name the 100 Most Wired hospitals and health systems. It focuses on how the nation's hospitals use information technology for patient safety and quality, customer service, business process improvement, workforce management and public health and safety.
Hospital and Health Networks conducted the 2009 survey in cooperation with McKesson Corp and the College of Healthcare Information Management Executives. The July H&HN cover story detailing results is available at hhnmag.com

Bo Porter and the Astros are back at Space Coast Stadium today.
VIERA, Fla. — Davey Johnson has wanted his regulars to begin getting more playing time, and today nearly all of them will get an opportunity to start back-to-back games for the first time. This is essentially the same lineup as Johnson fielded yesterday, except for Steve Lombardozzi at third base instead of Chad Tracy.
Among those going back-to-back is Wilson Ramos, who caught five innings yesterday and is scheduled to do the same today. The only remaining hurdle for Ramos in his return from ACL surgery will be to play a full, nine-inning game. Johnson suggested today that neither Ramos nor fellow catcher Kurt Suzuki is likely to do that for another week or so.
Today is Ross Detwiler's turn to pitch, but with the lefty in Miami with Team USA, Chris Young will again get the nod for the Nationals. Young was a bit erratic in his first start, so he'll be seeking some more consistency this time out. Each one of the right-hander's outings is significant at this point, because he can opt out of his contract on March 24. If he pitches well, you've got to think there will be a couple of major-league clubs interested in his services.
Plenty of updates and analysis to come, so please check back often…

- A DC Wonk - Mar 14, 2013 at 4:08 PM
from a few threads ago (as I slowly work myself out of winter hibernation…)Rendon and Harper have 2 different swings, different leverage, extension. Harper is so strong.I will tell you that in all of my years of watching hitters that I've never seen a player like Harper that throws his hands at the ball like he does. His bat speed gets an exponential boost in the last 10 inches of his swing by doing that.I said it last year, I'll say it again. That vicious swing does remind me of one other player I saw as a youngster: Willie Mays. (I was the youngster when I saw him, not Mays!) I was always amazed at how fast the bat went, how much power, and yet could still hit .300+(starting to come out of winter hibernation . .. )

March 14, 2013 12:17 PM Pain is one thing as many athletes play with pain. Glad his pain is gone. He throws 100 mph so it wasn't affecting his Velo as he threw 100 the beginning of this year. I don't think you can blame the pain on his accuracy as he has had the bouts of wildness much longer than 1.5 years, maybe 2.
- Theophilus T. S. - Mar 14, 2013 at 4:29 PM
Elbow pain for a year and a half doesn't explain a lifetime of being as wild as a March hare. Frankly, I don't believe him.

When the ol' ball coach is watching, all these games count.
- Ghost Of Steve M. - Mar 14, 2013 at 5:17 PM
UnkyD said… Smile with me…. My Boy HRod is about to become the FOURTH A-list closer on this roster!!!I agree with Michele, I hope you're right. I've always known HRod could bring the Cholula Hot Sauce but except for a few outings of dominance he has been one of the most inconsistent parts of this Nats team since he arrived.I think he also has used up his 9 lives. Fairly certain of that.
- Theophilus T. S. - Mar 14, 2013 at 5:20 PM
UnkyD — Sightings of "Good Henry" occur as regularly as Lourdes, Fatima and Medjugorje. The only saving grace of the most recent apparition is that there is no obvious candidate to replace him on the 25-man roster. The Nats can treat him as a Rule 5 draft pick.
- Ghost Of Steve M. - Mar 14, 2013 at 5:20 PM
JWerth trying to take out a windshield!
- Steady Eddie - Mar 14, 2013 at 5:23 PM
Ghost — given that HRod is still on the roster and looks likely (at least as of now) to be on it on Opening Day, I would amend that to say he's used up eight of his nine lives. Down to fish or cut bait time.
- Ghost Of Steve M. - Mar 14, 2013 at 5:25 PM
Theo, I actually agree with your last comment. There is just nobody stepping up to grab that last spot in the bullpen. I don't think HenRod has earned it rather moreso that he has no options remaining and gets it by default. It would be a tougher decision if Abad or Bray really impressed.
- Steady Eddie - Mar 14, 2013 at 5:28 PM
MicheleS — agreeing with you and UnkyD, but I don't think a winning team gives you any pass on the need for bourbon and Maalox. Even the best team will lose 60+ times, with plenty of raw nerves on the many wins, too. In fact, probably MORE bourbon and Maalox games as there are fewer games where they will be entirely blown out and non-competitive.
- Ghost Of Steve M. - Mar 14, 2013 at 5:30 PM
Steady Eddie said… Ghost — given that HRod is still on the roster and looks likely (at least as of now) to be on it on Opening Day, I would amend that to say he's used up eight of his nine lives. Down to fish or cut bait time. March 14, 2013 1:23 PM OK, 8 of his 9 lives but even if Henry disappoints, there has to be someone better to replace him with. Abad, Bray, Kimball, Garcia, etc.The only other 2 choices I see is if Rizzo makes a trade or they fear losing Young on an opt-out would cause them to make Young the long man in the pen.Rizzo in an interview today when asked who his 6th starter would be didn't even name Young as his 6th starter. He specifically named Duke, Stammen, Karns or another Minor Leaguer.Maybe Lohse goes un-signed a few months longer.
- NatsLady - Mar 14, 2013 at 5:31 PM
Here is a short article where the author compared hitters' results in ST with regular season results. He concluded,"… there is no meaningful connection between spring training statistics and the subsequent regular season statistics for hitters. Even after looking at three different offensive metrics the highest correlation we have is with slugging percentage at just .052."Spring traininghttp://www.beyondtheboxscore.com/2013/3/11/4087430/spring-training-statistics-are-utterly-meaningless

Ryan Zimmerman now batting exactly .500 in the Spring. He is hitting it hard everywhere.
- Avar - Mar 14, 2013 at 5:36 PM
Over/Under on HRod release date of May 1st…anyone?
- Steady Eddie - Mar 14, 2013 at 5:39 PM
Avar @ 1:36 — answer unclear, ask again later.Agree with Ghost that he's there by default and the post-surgery hope/possibility that he'll regain at least some of his late 2011 PFB form. But just saw on GameDay: Rick Ankiel walks.So anything is possible.
- Ghost Of Steve M. - Mar 14, 2013 at 5:41 PM
NatsLady, that seems to support that most veteran players will play back to their career stats and their ST numbers aren't very indicative of what's to come.I, on the other hand am hoping that Bryce Harper hits over .400 BA [WINK] and Espi follows his better mechanics and approach into the regular season!
- Ghost Of Steve M. - Mar 14, 2013 at 5:44 PM
Steady Eddie, Rick Ankiel will make the Houston roster. He will start hot and make some great throws in the outfield…then go into a long and agonizing slump. I've seen that movie played over many many times.
- Tcostant - Mar 14, 2013 at 5:47 PM
Lets look at the positive, Young now more likely to accept a minor league stint.
- Ghost Of Steve M. - Mar 14, 2013 at 5:47 PM
Avar, interesting over/under. I just see nobody poised to step up. Best chance looks like Christian Garcia getting healthy.I would say if Garcia is ready to go I would take the under.
- Ghost Of Steve M. - Mar 14, 2013 at 5:48 PM
Tcostant, I hope you are right on Young accepting a AAA deal.
- NatsLady - Mar 14, 2013 at 5:49 PM
Rick Ankiel will be helpful to Bo with all those young players. How much he produces on the field pretty much won't matter, but he can coach on positioning, how to get jumbs, which base to throw to, etc. As long as he's not a hitting coach…
- NatsLady - Mar 14, 2013 at 5:50 PM
If Young is this year's John Lannan that would be fine. I just don't see Perry cutting it, and Maya, well, we all know Maya….
- Sec. 3, My Sofa - Mar 14, 2013 at 5:55 PM
From the last post, re Rendon: Just wondering, Rendon would have the same "keep him in the minors for a month or so, or else lose a year later" contract issue that Harper had last year, wouldn't he? Not that he's in AAA because of it, just wondering.
- John C. - Mar 14, 2013 at 6:18 PM
Sec. 3, Rendon is subject to the rule the same way that all other rookies are subject to service time rules for free agency. I am dead. flat. certain. that had nothing to do with this demotion though. He hasn't proven to be able to stay healthy the last couple of years, and he needs to learn how to play positions other than third base so the team knows its options. Most importantly, there's simply no place to put him. He's not replacing any of the three guys with Silver Slugger awards, and even Espinosa is playing well this spring. And it does no good at all for Rendon to sit on the bench.Now, check back with me in 2014 and service time issues may become more important at that point.

- Ghost Of Steve M. - Mar 14, 2013 at 7:07 PM
Sec, yes, but there isn't a position for Rendon. Yes, by the end of April you buy another year but it also means 4 years of arbitration.
- sjm308 - Mar 14, 2013 at 7:16 PM
I am in the Unkyd camp on this and not because of his guitar playing!I realize HRod drives us crazy with a great performance one game and something worse than horrible the next. BUT… if he can control his emotions and his pitches he really does give us that 4th plus plus relief pitcher and makes this bullpen one that might go down as the best ever!It's funny that I don't think about things like family but I like him even more knowing he has a wife and kids. I am sure he is not the lone ranger on this but I wonder how much support the Nationals give to players that do not speak English as their first language? Go Nats!!

I have noticed that some of you have been enjoying Seattle's commercials. I lived out there for many years and they have a long history of quirky commercials. My absolute favorite was Randy Johnson as a knife thrower in a circus, throwing knives all around his catcher 's body. Seeing these new ones brings back good memories- the Mariner's were the first team for my children back in the Kingdome. Wishing Morse a great experience there. Great city.

Doc- I think Lombo may be residing 'neath yonder line also.

SonnyG10, thanks for that. Charlie and Dave talked about Henry also in his ups and downs.

Micah Owings – another Rizzo coup. Rendon will be up earlier than most here believe, if I correctly read Rizzo's presser yesterday. He has a way of telegraphing what he intends to do, and it's got nothing to do with "reps" in the minors for Rendon. Danny is having a good ST, but he had a good one last year, too, and actually started out the first week or so of the season with as many walks as Ks. Based on that I predicted a breakout year for him last year, and he immediately reverted to type. Even if he plays up to the potential so many see in him, he will never be half the player Rendon is, right now.Ryan played in all of 68 games in the minors before he was brought up, for good, in 2005. Rendon has played 43 games in the minors and another 22 in the AFL, or a total of 65 games in the minors and the AFL. He doesn't need any more reps, now, than Ryan did in 2005. He is more ready now than Ryan was then.Injuries? Please. Does RZ have to prove he can get through a year without injuring himself, yet again? Ramos? Werth? ALR? Span? That's more than half the starting team that has missed extended time just during the last 2 years because of serious injury. Desi missed a month last year with hamstring problems, and Espinoza came into camp and is playing with a torn rotator cuff. That leaves Harper as the only starter without a recent history of injury, and most of those injuries were serious, other than Desmond's.Rizzo will bring Rendon back as soon as there is an opening after he serves enough time to avoid the Super 2 bogeyman. You cannot keep the most talented hitter on the team down on the farm. Micah Owings has been the best bat off the bench, hands down, and the more reps he gets, the better he hits. What will Mike do? Good question. I wonder if Mike knows yet, himself. As usual, he has plenty of options.

Correctomundo, Swam!Lombo has shown less stick than Rivero!ALR is reportedly a late bloomer at the start of a season, but his current average looks like he won't be blooming at all.Span, I'd be worried about too. He seems to be getting more than his share of K's.

That's a really perceptive post Laddie. Thank you. The argument that Rendon has to prove he can play a full season without injury before he can play in the majors has always bothered me, and thanks to you I now know why. It makes no sense. Kudos.Rendon is going down because this team is stacked, and because, as with Harper, you don't want to lose a year of control by putting him on the 25-man too soon. (I don't think Super-2 status is of that much concern with someone of his talent, just as it didn't prevent Rizzo from bringing up Harper.) But when there's a spot for him in the infield, or even on the bench, because of injury or lousy performance, I think you're right that we'll see him in DC. In a WSOB season, you're not going to leave one of your best bats in the minors if he can help the team.

Doc- conventional wisdom in MLB is that the AL is the tougher league. I scoff at that as I have watched NL pitching and defense dominate the last two all star games and World Series . I worry about Span facing NL East pitching , especially the first series with each team. Ultra tough pitching that is new to him. We need him to get on base. I hope Eckstein and the veterans help him get up to speed.

Laddie and 222, I disagree with the comparison to Zim and subsequent conclusions. When Zim was coming up he started out in A ball and dominated each level on the way to the majors and the Nats were a crappy team that needed a big time prospect so he was fast tracked to the majors. Harper is a consensus – once in a generation talent; not my opinion; every baseball person's opinion. Rendon has yet to dominate at any level and there is a strong young player at every position he could conceivably play. Should he go down to AA and dominate (he didn't last year) he may earn a promotion to AAA which is exactly what happened with Harper but Rizzo is certainly not benching Espinosa in April to play Rendon and Rendon is not coming up to be a utility infielder.
- JD - Mar 14, 2013 at 10:37 PM
Oh and Harper would not have come up in April last year were it not for the injuries to Morse and Zim.
- NatsNut - Mar 14, 2013 at 10:43 PM
With all due respect Laddie, you're saying all those injuries are the signs that these great players, except Desmond and Harper, are on the brink of career-ending catastrophes and that this is the reason RENDON is just waiting in the wings to take over? Rendon, who has practically been injured since high school? He's good but I think that's a bit of a stretch.
- Doc - Mar 14, 2013 at 11:11 PM
Lots of us have speculated that Rendon comes up when Zim goes to 1B. If ALR keeps at his current pace, that might come sooner than later. Not sure Rizzo would want to keep somebody on the bench at $12mm and counting.There's always injuries, like Desi being out for a month last year, Zim being on the DL, and of course we haven't seen Espi complete a full month of competition with his rotator cuff.One thing that struck me recently is how the scouts and Rizzo had the cojones to draft Rendon, when other teams were passing on his injured status. Clearly, this guy had all the qualities of being #1 in the Draft.I remember Davey saying last season, that Rendon had a swing that could hit at any level.
- MicheleS - Mar 15, 2013 at 12:13 AM
Outside of 2011, Hasn't ALR always been the most consistent player? Seriously, you all are ready to dump a GG/Silver Slugger 1B for a kid that has yet to play 50 MINOR LEAGUE games. Agree with NatsNut Sorry, that's just way to much of a stretch.

Gold Glove, Silver Slugger, sure—that was months ago. How's he been when the games don't count, huh?
- MicheleS - Mar 15, 2013 at 12:31 AM
Thank you Sofa

LaRoche is ultra-consistent defensively, for sure. But they hated him in Pittsburgh (and still boo him there) because he had a habit of not getting going at the plate until the season was well along. He put up good numbers there, but he never started until the team was already out of contention.
- NatsJack in Florida - Mar 15, 2013 at 1:06 AM
As someone who watches Spring Traiming closely, Adam LaRoche's head is still in a tree stand in Kansas.He will start hitting around May 1st or when ever Davey kicks him in the ass.
- baseballswami - Mar 15, 2013 at 2:06 AM
I thought maybe he got off to a great start last year because his time off had left him refreshed and his rehab had him in the best shape of his life.
- sjm308 - Mar 15, 2013 at 3:51 AM
Wow – probably won't get any responses because of the new post but I can't believe people are jumping on a veteran like LaRoche because he is not hitting in SPRING TRAINING!! And, while we are at it, lets bring up a kid who has not had a full season of baseball the last 3 years and play him at a position that he has not played, replacing a young man who is a tremendous defensive player and has shown no problems so far with his shoulder. Yep, just what we need to do.Sometimes I just shake my head.
