Teacher Binds Girls' Hands and Feet to Teach About Slavery
Filed under: In The News
A seventh-grade social studies teacher who was teaching a lesson on slavery wanted her students to understand the experience a little more clearly. So she bound the hands and feet of two girls in her classroom and had them crawl under a desk. Whether or not the girls volunteered for the activity isn't clear, but what is plain as day is that at least one of the girls felt wronged by the teacher's actions.
The 13-year-old and her mother met with school officials to complain about the incident and brought a representative from the NAACP to the meeting. The teacher is white, the two girls are black, though the superintendent points out that they were not the only black students in the class.

There are a lot of red flags in this story, but I think that the teacher crossed the line the minute she bound the girls' hands and feet. Even if they were game for the activity at first, they may not have realized how vulnerable it was going to make them feel. This teacher obviously needs a lesson in sensitivity.
Have you ever had a teacher cross the line with your child?
Yes, her actions were definitely out of line. | |
No. She was just trying to use a creative teaching method. | |
No, but she needs some additional traiing. |

L said...Hmm I am a historian and wow I would never prove a historical point this way.,. there are other methods of teaching about slavery and its evils... this teacher went too far
JR said...Would this story even be flagged if the teacher was African-American and the students were white?
L said...You asked if this would have been flagged if the teacher were african american and the child black.. It would be national news!! Race always seems to be a "issue" in this country. A lesson learned is a lesson one can take and pass on, but placing fear or trama into a child in order to teach a lesson is pure abuse and if it were here in NYC that teacher would have been jailed and charged with corporal punishment.
Elise said...Where were the administrators/supervisors going INTO this lesson? I'm a teacher and my supervisor has a copy of my plans in advance - if there is something I should not be doing in my class, I'd expect him/her to stop me or let me know "I see what you meant but this may not be a wise idea". Are the administrators being punished too? Do we know how long this person has been teaching?
Storm said...Hey JUNIOR... an African-American teacher would never be so STUPID as to do what this teacher did... call it race -- or call it EMPATHY...
L said...Elise,
Here in New York City, it seems a lot of parents take everything that teachers do to the extreme. They fight them on almost everything, yet most of these kids are not on the level they should be. They at times this places limits what an educators can do. This is why I will NOT teach in the New York City public schools. I rather go to school for a few extra years and become a college professor where I can have the extra slack to teach.
Antoinette said...I totally agree with you, L. There is an amazing children's author by the name of Julius Lester. The book is called To Be a Slave. Had the teacher read just one chapter from this book, students would have definitely understood the horrors of slavery. In addition, there are wonderful videos put out by the History Channel that also address the issue in a tasteful, but educational way. As an educator, one has to be careful, especially when recounting the horrors of history (and there are MANY). Live demonstrations are not necessary.
joe said...JR you KNOW it would not be!!! only bc they were black and teacher was white, or we would Never have seen this story
R said...It's pretty obvious to me that the only reason that this is even an issue is that this mother is looking for her payday and plans on suing the school. Why else would she have brought a representative from the NAACP along to the meeting ?
billy10258 said...You are most definitely not a history teacher, let alone an historian! If you want to make apoint, be honest and make the point! I will not be more inclined to believe you if your background is related to the topic.And I know you are wondering...hmmm, how does this person know the truth about me? Well, I just typed the hint! Figure it out on your own!
ELANDY said...Not everything we learn makes us feel good at first. Sometimes we need to learn something by having some firsthand experience. The student wasn't in shackles, pushed by armed men, taken from her village, put on a ship with little to no food for weeks, or flogged. But she or he was given some idea of what it may have been like for a few minutes. Not the hours, days, or weeks that slaves endured. To me, as I was a student once also, I may have felt vulnerable for a time - but the lesson would've taken on new meaning. I do not believe this student was threatened, physically or mentally, in any way. Life is tough, some of our questionable history is tough, but with "firsthand" teaching like this - maybe our children will realize what a life they have vs. what those before them have had to endure. Bravo!
L said...Sadly, yes I guess this parent is looking for a payout. But I am sure their Department of Education has great laywers to prove that no damage was done to any of the children. Like I said before I work in a school and I have heard of some parents making up things in an attempt to sue the school. Not much holds up in court because the truth always comes out.
Kelley Raunec said...Can we all just take a breather for a minute? When I was in school we were blindfolded to learn about being blind. We had our hands tied behind our back to learn about being disabled, etc. Some lessons are learned best by getting actively involved, not just sitting at a desk listening to a teacher drone on and on. I don't think this teacher did anything wrong. I think those girls know more about how it felt to be a slave than they might otherwise have learned. This whole county is so politically correct that it scares me. We are raising a generation of kids who won't know reality from a video game. Enough said.
L said...Hey Billy, why do you say I am not a historian? I have a BA and will be obtaining my Masters in American History this spring then I will be on my way to obtaining a PhD... So... smart guy how am I not a historian? Why?, because I don't study the feel good history of the past? The history that makes the most evil people in history look tamed and heroic?
hall monitor said...Do we reward her for using hands-on creative lessons, or criticize her for embarrasing students and not demonstrating respect for history? My vote is for the latter.
Hall Monitor
Kelly said...They actually brought in the NAACP?? Come on... this only an issue because the teacher is white & students weren't. No wonder good teachers leave the business.
Angee said...No JR nor should it have been flagged if it was a story about an African-American teacher and white students. African Americans don't have a history of enslaving whites.
The teacher's motives were probably harmless but what was done was inappropriate. It was a bad idea to begin with, but at the very least she should had the foresight to have 1 black student and 1 white student.
t from ny said...There are very few white students in that school. The majority are blacks and hispanics. Most classes do not have any white students.
Crow2447 said...African-Americans have been known to enslave people in their past.Whether you believe everything in the Bible or not it is true that Egyptians(therefor africans) used slaves to build the pyramids.Every race has committed horrible acts against another race at sometime in their past.
j40 said...I like how most say it was whites enslaving blacks, while that is a true statment for this countrys history, slavery is wrong no matter what. ALL races have enslaved not only other races but there own also. LOOK AND READ HISTORY IT IS THERE!!! a lot of the blacks that where brought to this counrty where first enslaved in africa by other tribes when there tribe lost a battle

Zillow raises $25, joins ranks of bigger Web 2.0 companies
It is controversial because it pisses off lots of real estate agents, who think providing values is their job.
Rich Barton |
The round was led by investment fund PAR Capital Management, which joined previous investors including Benchmark Capital and Technology Crossover Ventures (TCV). Zillow has raised $57 million to date -- very similar to the $50 million Jobster has raised. This is now getting into the realm of serious cash amounts. There are only a handful of Web 2.0 companies -- at most -- that have managed to raise so much.
Zillow was founded last year, but first launched its site in February 2006. It has 118 employees. Since launching, it has been among the top-ten real estate sites, with an impressive two to three million unique visitors a month. It provides price values on nearly 67 million U.S. homes.
Rich Barton, Zillow co-founder and chief executive, told us the company will focus on improving the quality of the data that informs its estimates, and will also roll out a number of other features unrelated to housing valuations, which he is keeping secret for now.
The company is not profitable yet. He said he did not need the cash, but that he chose to raise the money anyway. The best time to raise money is when you don't need it, he said.

Seeing some of these new rounds is absolutely sending a chill down my spine as a public investor. Where's the exit strategy? I would love to know the post money valuation Zillow got for this round. Wow.

Can you explain to me what makes Zillow a web 2.0 company? Better yet, maybe you could explain what Web 2.0 is?

Released: Nov 01st, 1992
Running Time: 68
Director: Paul Norman
Company: X-Citement Video
Patricia Kennedy, Tom Byron, P.J. Sparxx, T.T. Boy, Joel Lawrence, Bionca (I), Shayla (I), Samantha York, Francesco Le
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Feature
Paul Norman has gone back to basics in this eerie trip through the subconscious. Shirley (P.J. Sparxx) gets Nelson (Tom Byron) a ticket to the "Carnival of Knowledge" for his birthday, but when the happy couple arrive at the address, it's nothing but an abandoned house. Or is it?
Out of nowhere, a vampirish tour guide appears and proceeds to show them scenes from the deepest recesses of their minds. As Tom and P.J. watch, Francesca Le and Nick E., (calling each other Shirley and Nelson) get down and dirty in a chair on the front porch. And they do get DOWN and DIRTY!
P.J. runs away — only to be stalked and caught by their host. With a snap of his fingers, he transports his guests into a bathroom (where Patricia Kennedy and Bionca are playing in the tub), to witness P.J.'s secret desire to be with another woman. The energy level of Kennedy and Bionca is amazing! No orifice is left unattended, and every second is a delight to watch. The next visitation comes in the form of Joel Lawrence and Samantha York, whose outdoor tryst is good, but not great. Then P.J. and Tom are zapped into another fantasy — and this time they get to participate!
T.T. Boy gives P.J. the pounding of a lifetime, making her literally scream in orgasm (more than once I might add), as Tom and Shayla do the nasty in an equally hot but more low-key fashion on the floor. This is by far the best thing going on this tape. The tape ender with P.J. and Tom is an incomplete scene, but it sizzles while it lasts. A little less looping would have bumped this tape to AAAA, but Paul Norman proves he's still "got it" with this MUST STOCK tape.

Great online course available: «Securing Digital Democracy», by J. Alex HaldermanSubmitted by gwolf on Thu, 09/13/2012 - 13:22
I was pointed at a great online course — If you are into e-voting analysis (or, more broadly, into democratic processes' history, evolution and future), I strongly suggest you to take a look at «Securing Digital Democracy». Just the name of the teacher should be enough to make it interesting: University of Michigan professor J. Alex Halderman, the guy who has analized/hacked several electronic booths, and one of the clearest, smartest voices to explain what should we require of a voting system and how electronic booths are the worst fit for any purpose. The course is delivered through Coursera; I have found Coursera to be an effective, usable, unobtrusive platform — So much I even signed up for another course. I am not so happy with online courses requiring to wait so much between lessons, but after all, it tries to mimic what we see at "regular" (i.e. classroom) teaching settings. And, after all, we autodidacts are still a minority. The course in question started ten days ago, but you can still perfectly join. Each week has two lessons, worth of approximately 40 minutes of video each, and are "graded" through a quiz. Lets see how this evolves.
Electronic voting in Panama: Slower, more expensive, more uncertainty... Goodbye!Submitted by gwolf on Tue, 09/04/2012 - 16:56
Panama just underwent a nasty e-voting exercise: Electronic-mediated elections were held for the committee of the PRD party. It sounds simple - Even trivial! There were only 4100 authorized voters, it was geographically trivial (all set inside a stadium)... But it blew up in smoke. I won't reiterate all what happened, I'll rather direct you to our project's (the e-voting observatorium) page: News regarding Panama (for those coming from the future, search starting at 2012-08-27 — and yes, it's all in Spanish, but there are free-as-in-beer translation services. Many e-vote proponents/sellers/pushers were very eagerly waiting for this election to brag about one more success... So much that they could not just ignore it, and started rationalizing it away. Anyway, while feeding the observatorium, I came across this opinion-article in the Voto Digital website, which makes quite a bit of pro-e-voting noise. I replied to it, and I think my analysis is worth sharing also with you:
To CURP or not to CURPSubmitted by gwolf on Tue, 09/04/2012 - 12:58
CURP: Clave Única del Registro Poblacional, or Unique Population Registry Code. This is a (hopefully) unique, 18 character long, string identifying each Mexican - I won't get into the technicalities, but serve yourselves. By following such a convoluted scheme, the authorities should have ensured a biunivocal relation between each person and their CURP number. Well, at some point, due to a bureaucratical mishap completely outside my hands (my patron registered me with the wrong birth date, as you can see in the page at the bottom), I got two CURPs - And the procedure to fix it was far from trivial. Last Sunday, I entered the Consulta CURP system to print a copy of the official document. Much to my surprise... It answered that I was not registered! A couple of minutes later, I tried again, and succeeded. But I could not refrain from printing my Certificate of non-registration. I guess their system follows a strong-but-stupid scheme such as:
So, right, if a user submits a query during the system maintenance window (after all, it was Sunday after 23:00), the system will fail to connect to the database (or whatever), raise an exception, trap it, and... Well, you no longer exist, thanks for playing!
WikiLovesMonuments wants *you* (and me!)Submitted by gwolf on Mon, 09/03/2012 - 17:35
What, haven't you heard about the WikiLovesMonuments photo contest around cultural heritage? Copying from its web page, I heard about this initiative in Iván Martínez's Wikimedia talk at COSIT 2012, held last week in Coatzacoalcos, Veracruz (I intend to write a bit more regarding COSIT later on). I loved the idea, and intend to participate — Not because I take great pictures (I don't, and I usually take them using my aging phone, which gives decent results but nothing beyond that), but because I love to move by bike in the city, and it's one of the best ways to roll in front of some of them. But more on me later… Back to the topic! WikiLovesMonuments aims to improve on Wikimedia's (the organization behind Wikipedia and several other Free Culture reference projects) coverage of important landmarks all over the world. To do so, they are offering a trip to attend WikiMania 2013 in Hong Kong to the first place winner, and other "photography-related" prizes to the other winners. So, back to me: My motivation to enter the contest is to help Wikimedia. I know my shots won't be top-notch (although they will be the best I can do). I enjoy biking in my city, and often go not too far from many of the listed monuments. I am amazed at the number of monuments still pending in my area (of course, it's not by mistake this is called "La ciudad de los palacios", The city of the palaces) — Surely some of the readers of this post will have (or will find easy to take) some photos to add. Of course, I'll try to focus on the missing monuments, but if you are a good photographer, you might want to submit a better version for a monument that's already there. So, some pointers, from what's closest to what's farthest from me:
At least for Mexico, the listings are taken from the National Institute for Anthropology and History (INAH)'s Public registry of archaeological zones and monuments. So, I cannot wait to start my biking session today to get some good end-of-summer evening sun and get some pictures taken! :-D

An industry commits suicide and blames usSubmitted by gwolf on Wed, 08/22/2012 - 11:32
[ once again, I am translating somebody else's material – In this case, my good Costa Rican friend Carolina Flores. Please excuse my stylistic mistakes — My English is far from native as you well know. But this material is worth sharing, and worth investing some tens of minutes doing a quick translation. If you can read Spanish, go read Caro's original entry ] Have you been to a music record store lately? I did so last Saturday, as a mere excercise. I was not planning on buying anything but I wanted to monitor things and confirm my suspicions. What was I suspicious of? First, that I would only find old records. And so it was: The only recent record I found was ...little broken hearts by Norah Jones. the second, that I would only find music for over 50 year old people. so it was: Were I there to look for a present for my father, I would have walked out with 10 good records. Third, that in the store nothing worth commenting would happen. About that last point, I should point out it was around 10 AM and the store had just opened its doors. Lets concede the benefit of doubt. I don't think many of you will remember, but in Barrio La California (where there is now a beauty parlour, almost in front of AM.PM) there was Auco Disco. In Auco Disco there was a guy specialized in rock (Mauricio Alice) and another one specialized in jazz (I don't remember his name). In that record you could always find rare records, but if they were not there, at least you were sure to find somebody to say: "No, we don't have that, but that's an excellent record, it's the best that [insert group here] have ever recorded because just afterwards they switched their guitar player, they had gone a bit south but with that record they are flying. But no, we don't have it; I can recommend you this record by [insert another group] because it has a guitar solo in track six that is amazing". It would happen more or less like that, which means, one would arrive to Auco Disco at 10 AM and leave around 5 PM with three new records, after having listened to a spectacular music selection. What happened to those stores? Were they killed by The Pirate Bay? That's the simplistic answer from the recording industry! The answer is that those stores never got anything from the industry but an invoice. The industry –specially in prescindible markets such as ours– was limited to hiring artists, taking care of them recording a sellable product, producing the object called record, and that's it. The more commercial radio stations were paid to program those songs —as it cannot be casual that "Mosa, mosa" is the summer hit in all of Latin America, can it?— but, record stores? Nothing. Lets carry on with that idea: Radio stations are paid to program said music. This idea should not lead us to believe that recording companies are to blame for bad taste. I won't reveal my sources, but I know the success of the "Locura automática" song by La Secta was a real example. Nobody paid for it. That song got to the number one because of its own merits(?) (you don't know the effort it took to find that thing, I cannot recommend it to you). Same thing happens with other stations that don't program reggaetón, that try to save the species, and where they play what we do like. But the thing is, everything we like is not available in any record store in this country. Then, even if we wanted to buy a record or give it as a gift to somebody, it is plain impossible. And don't tell me it's the same to present as a gift a link or a CD full of downloaded MP3 as it is to give a record with cover and booklet, wrapped in gift paper. I might be old-school, but the fetish object record still exists, not only because of its cover, but because of its sound. A 3MB MP3 is akin to drinking coffee dripping from a bag that has been used eight times with the same coffee beans. That format is the worst that has ever happened to music, and if we had any bit dignity we would never purchase digital files in Amazon or iTunes safe for MP3 with an acceptable compression level. That, if we could buy them, because not only that is allowed to us. As the musical industry has no interest in resolving ITS problem (that is not our problem, it is those companies') it has not even been resolved how to charge for a MP3 download that includes import fees (well, if downloading from here a MP3 from a USA-based file server can be considered importing goods into Costa Rica!!!) so we don't have to get dizzy entering into the nineties to Titi Online to discover there is nothing by Muse, Andrew Bird, The Killers, Death Cab for Cutie, Paramore, Björk... (believe me, I looked them all up, even Norah jones and La Secta. They also were not there). This all leads me to the question, which I present with all due respect (NOT): What the fuck do they expect us to do??? It is outrageous; above all because in the best case they will sell us a watery coffee download that won't allow us to get all the details a vinyl or less compression would give us. In the worst case, post-MP3 groups will end up recording music with no harmonics or hidden sounds, because, what for? Nobody will hear it. They even admit it: "Some musicians and audio engineers say the MP3 format is changing the way studios mix their recordings. They say the MP3 format "flattens" dynamics –differences in tone and volume– in a song. As a result, a great deal of new music sounds very much alike, and there is nothing as focusing to create a dynamic listening experience. Why working so hard in creating complex sound if nobody can detect it?" (Rolling Stone, The Death of High fidelity, December 26 2007, taken from here). That's why I am not surprised by Adrián's post regarding the sales of old records. The price has nothing to do with it. The causes are related to the fetish object record and what it means or does not mean for people that have never purchased one. Adrián also asks if somebody here keeps buying records. I answered that I would if the stores sold anything I like. I do it even after the nausea I feel while reading "This phonogram is an intellectual work protected in favor of its producer… COPYING IT IN WHOLE OR PARTIALLY IS FORBIDDEN…" (like that, uppercased, yelling to whoever is only guilty of having bought a record and defending the producer, not the artist). But I am sure that almost nobody buys records because doing so is no longer a gratifying experience; because if buying a record is clicking to wait 15 days for it to reach the mailbox, we prefer clicking on the download link. But there is another reason for people not to buy records anymore. In one of my talks regarding the dictatorship of the all rights reserved, I asked the 30 twenty-something-year-old students if any of them had ever bought a record. One answered he had, because he is an author and performer (cantautor in Spanish) and understands the effort that producing a record entails. The rest of them had never done so. Is it possible that said young people have never listened to real music? Is it possible that, were it not for concerts, what they consider music is a set of washed-out MP3 that are about to fill up 1TB of their computer? Does people no longer buy records because they cannot differentiate one sound from the other? It is not very clear for me where do I want to get to. The recording industry is despicable. An industry that instead of innovating sets its energy on suing adolescents for downloading songs, trying to pass laws restricting our freedoms in Internet, putting up DRMs making us hostages to our devices* and forcing us to listen just the aroma of music, deserves my whole contempt. If we add ot this that said industry won't allow us to legally download their breadcrumbs because it has not understood that Internet does not need a van crossing borders, besides my contempt they deserve my pity and my heartfelt condolence. But the condolence is also for music, real music, that which is not compressed under the shoe using a terrible format. It is also for independent musicians that have not realized that begging for a bit of space to that industry they just add to themselves the "despicable" tag, given they deserve the fruits of their work to enter their bank account. However, there are good things that have come out of this absurdity. Be it for those that have joined projects such as Autómata (even if it is in MP3) and for dreams come true such as Musopen (that have achieved that the music that's in theory Public Domain becomes so in practice as well). Good for the Electronic Frontier Foundation and the list of lawyers willing to defend people accused of ilegally downloading music in the USA. Good for the Creative Commons licenses that allow free sharing. All those are growing solutions, although none of them allows me to buy the Panamanian Carlos Méndez's record. Thankfully, a friend of mine who knows I will never give a dime to Apple, bought the files for me in iTunes. I thank him deeply, although I would have prefered to go to Auco Disco and have Mauricio tell me that the 2007 EP I have from Carlos is better than the record he did on 2009. * My devices don't have DRM because I use free software. I also use the ogg file format. Image by verbeeldingskr8

Impromptu session on information freedom, network neutrality, etc. — COSIT 2011, MexicoSubmitted by gwolf on Tue, 08/21/2012 - 17:54
Impromptu session on information freedom, network neutrality, etc. — COSIT 2011, Mexico. :0:56:00.
2011. During the COSIT 2011 conference, we held a very celebrated and fun impromptu talk. This was a very interesting session where many of the long-time Free Software activists in Mexico took the stage (we were waiting for a speaker who was late, so the audience was bored and waiting) and started talking –in a completely irreverent, disorganized way– about the status of network neutrality, ACTA, Free Software, Free Culture, legal issues regarding copyright and many other similar points. At some point or another, we had on stage: Fernando Romo "el Pop", Alejandro Miranda "Pooka", Sandino Araico, Claudia Hernández, Octavio Méndez... Anybody else? ☺ Regarding the quality of the recording: Regina just found this file in her cheap, aging hand-held, photo camera. Again, this was not a planned session, so don't expect a high quality recording. It is hard to follow the audio at points, and the video is not steady. Anyway, it's worth following! Great thanks to Regina, and to her quick sense of opportunity, for reaching for her camera and filming this, as it would otherwise just get lost and stay only in our memory! ♥

More on hacker conferences and sexual harassmentSubmitted by gwolf on Thu, 08/16/2012 - 19:41
At the beginning of this year, I blogged about a Mexican security-minded hacker conference scaring away its female audience by advertising in a sexist way. I don't know if it is the need to be l33t or kewl, to show off that hackers are really socially inept, or what... but this seems to carry on. I know many are familiar with the red/yellow card project (and followup) by kdotcdot. I am (rightfully? naively?) proud that at DebConf we have achieved a clean conference environment, without such problems... Yes, I know that, during the last ~year at DebConf11 we discussed an anti-harassment policy (look at the thread, it was quite interesting!), came up with standards of respect — And Debian as a whole voted on a GR that ratifies a diversity statement. The fact that we had those very positive discussions, documents and events shows we needed to have them. But, again, this shows that being a hacker does not necessarily mean being a jerk. And I'm very proud to be part of this community. I recently stumbled across a very nice, insightful post by Valerie Aurora on The Ada Initiative: Supporting women in open technology and culture — DEFCON: Why conference harassment matters. Take a good read at it. I hope it helps shape other hacker groups in a less-aggressive, more welcoming way. Oh! And before closing: Be sure to at least skim through both Valerie Aurora's and kdotcdot's comments. LOTS of insight in them.
19 years of DebianSubmitted by gwolf on Thu, 08/16/2012 - 12:19
Happy 19th birthday, Debian! The Debian project is 19 years old now. Following Francesca's invitation (and Raphaël's lead, and using Leandro's image, collaboratively as it always happens here), I will tell a bit of my memories: How I got to Debian. I am a Debian user since ~2000, and a Debian Developer since April 2003. But, just as Raphaël's, my history must go somewhat further back in time. In 1992, I got my first 1200bps modem, and almost immediately became an avid BBS user (what's that? Javier Matuk talks [in Spanish] about BBSes in his newspaper column back in 1994). By mid 1993 I started operating my own BBS, CatarSYS. One of the key points that defined CatarSYS is that my focus was large-scale communication. I started connecting to several BBS networks, allowing messages to be relayed to distant people, mainly in the USA and Spain, and getting some feeds that could be seen as the poor man's Usenet. At some point during the year I kept CatarSYS going, I got connected through a strange set of gateways to pure gold: A UUCP feed! This means, during some months, I operated the first (free, hobbyist) service that offered its users a free Internet mail address in Mexico. Yes, it was completely different to what we are used to today. I tried to connect to my provider at least three times a week, but this meant less than one week turnover time for messages sent to people anywhere in the world! But, back to Debian: Via this UUCP feed, I also got some real Usenet newsgroups — Including several on the comp.os category. I remember reading about Linux back then, and learning some commands, but didn't really get hooked into it. I was in Israel from July 1994 to June 1995, doing completely non-computer-related tasks. Came back in 1995, and due to my father being an academic, got dialup internet access at home. WOW, *real* Internet! It didn't take me long to start downloading Linux information and floppy images. One failed after another. But before the end of the year, I found in a bookshop a book (that included a CD-ROM) called "Build your own web server with Linux". WOW again — Remember this was still 1995! I bought it, and shortly afterwards, I had a Slackware system (Linux kernel 1.0.9) running. That meant many sleepless nights full of joy and frustration (as getting hardware to work was cloe to impossible). By 1996, I got (within one week) my two first real jobs: A systems administrator at a small ISP and a highschool teacher. At the ISP, I got a spare computer to play with Linux, as –of course– the Big Server was running with Windows NT 3.51. Poor little machine... By then I was already a part of the Mexican Linux User Group. This group had just printed a batch of Linux CDs — RedHat 4.0. This was the first release that really made me happy and allowed me to do good work. Together with a friend I took to work with us, Juan Pablo Romero, we installed over a weekend a full replacement for our buggy NT machine, in much cheaper hardware. Of course, Linux was nowhere near corporate-recognition, and our project remained a project, not touching the Windows machine. Anyway... Several years passed, and I was happy with my RedHat choice. I won't mention the milestones and job changes, as it would get boring and leave the point completely aside. By the year 2000, I was quite more involved with the LUG, as well as with the computer security group in DGSCA-UNAM. I became also an OpenBSD user, and had got so hooked up in free software that I felt the need to collaborate: To be a little part of one of those Big Projects that had given me so much. But which one? I have never been much of a programmer — Yes, I can solve my everyday needs and have fun with it, and sometimes a bit beyond that. I enjoy programming. But all of my projects have begun little… and stayed little. I wanted to join OpenBSD, as it was a community I really believed in, but given my skillset (and given a flame-prone, aggressive developer community), I lost motivation to do so. By 2000, I had also lost faith in RedHat. I don't have the exact dates, so I might be some months off — But after RedHat's IPO, I felt a sharp change. Version 7.0 was really demotivating — It tried to offer a polished desktop experience, but was really buggy, unstable, and full of bad decisions. In Mexico, Pepe Neif had taken up the job of making a derivative distribution of RedHat (called LinuxPPP), pressing hundreds of CDs and making a teaching program I was part of several times. Talking with Pepe (who continued to release based on RedHat 6), he told me he was interested in switching over to become a Debian-based distribution, but the job of migrating his installed base made the project stall — LinuxPPP reached only version 6.4. But I installed Debian in early 2000, and loved it. I started getting familiar with its social philosophy and foundation documents at the same time I started migrating my servers from RedHat to Debian — This must have been by Spring 2000, as I installed Potato while it was frozen but not yet stable. By January 2002 I applied for NM. My process took a long time, as my AM got MIA when he had already approved me (but before sending the AM report), so basically I had to go through AM twice — And by April 16, 2003, I got accepted as a DD. Contrary to what is acceptable today, I requested the full process to be done before starting to maintain any packages, as I didn't want to bother people with package sponsorship requests, so my whole process was done evaluating packages I would eventually upload. Since becoming a DD, my main involvement in the project has been in packaging groups (I was a pkg-perl founder and member for many years, and am currently working in the pkg-ruby-extras group). But, as I said, my main strength is not programming — So my main involvement in Debian has been more social than technical: I have been a DebConf organizer since 2005, a very interesting, stressing, rewarding and (for some months) time-demanding role, and since 2009 I am part of the keyring maintainence team, which is much easier workload, although carries important ramifications. So, after 19 years of Debian, and after nine years of me being part of it, Debian is clearly my strongest link to the Free Software community, a project I have grown to love and whose way of being I share and enjoy studying and explaining. And it is a technically excellent product, and a great place to start and keep learning both about how every aspect and layer of an operating system works, and how human-to-human interaction works in such a diverse, almost impossible environment happens. Congratulations, Debian!
Electronic voting: Talk delivered in Moquegua (Peru)Submitted by gwolf on Tue, 07/24/2012 - 17:28
Electronic voting: Talk delivered in Moquegua (Peru).
2012. While we were at DebConf, all busy and in the organizing frenzy, I was supposed to deliver a talk in Moquegua, Perú, on the evening of July 7. Of course, I was unable to attend. Nevertheless, I accepted, if the talk could be delivered as a pre-recorded video with a live Q&A session afterwards. And so it was. The talk went quite smooth, and I think I will use bits of it. Video quality is far from great, but well... it was taken using nothing but a webcam and the laptop's integrated microphone. To my surprise, sound quality –that's what matters!– works quite well. I mostly followed the attached presentation; the video is split in three parts to make it easier to download. And yes, it's all in Spanish. Translations are, of course, welcome :)

Ten theses in favor of free download of cultural goods on the Internet (by Enrique G. Gallegos)Submitted by gwolf on Tue, 07/24/2012 - 17:09
This is one of the days where reading my everyday newspaper was worth more than just getting bitter at the news. I found this text in La Jornada, my usual newspaper. I liked it very much, and decided to translate it for a wider audience. Of course, if you can read Spanish, do yourself a favor and go to the original. It is not that the text is so easy to translate. And, after all, I'm not a native English writer. I'm trying to do a literal translation, even when disagreeing with the author.

La mochila viajera — The travelling backpackSubmitted by gwolf on Sat, 07/14/2012 - 11:53
La mochila viajera — The travelling backpack.
2012. During DebConf12, and thanks to Fito's kind invitation, a bunch of us were part of a radio program that's transmitted in Managua and Chinandega, «La mochila viajera». This program talks about different viewpoints and problematics about migration, seen from the eyes of Nicaraguans, which share quite a bit with us in Mexico — But at the same time, are very different. I was invited as part of a research group in UNAM on the topic «Communication, trasmigration and emergent systems». To be honest, I'm way behind schedule with the part of the research I should be doing, but here I very roughly describe (part of) the topic I'm interested in. The session was quite interesting. Of course, the reason I'm sending this to the blog is mainly that I want to keep it at hand, but I think some of you might find it interesting. Of course, it is in Spanish, so… YMMV ;-)

From DebCamp to DebConf through cheese, wine and an intro trackSubmitted by gwolf on Tue, 07/10/2012 - 02:16
One week. One long week. One beautiful week. One of the two major weeks of the year has passed since my previous post. Surely, we are in the middle of the two Major Weeks of the year, in the yearly schedule I have upheld for almost(!) ten years: DebConf+DebCamp. Yesterday, DebConf officially started. For the first time ever, we had a DebConf track targetted at the local (for a wide definition of local: All of the Central American countries) communities, which I chaired. We had the following talk lineup during this track:
I believe it was a great success, and I hope the talks are useful in the future. They will be put online soon thanks to the tireless work of our work team. Today we sadly lost the presence of our DPL due to very happy circumstances he will surely announce himself. But DebConf will continue nevertheless - And proof of that is our anual, great, fun and inviting Cheese and Wine Party! After a series of organizational hiccups I hope nobody notices (oops, was I supposed not to say this?), today we had a beautiful, fun and most successful cheese and wine party, as we have had year after year since 2005. As many other people, we did our humble contribution for this party to be the success it deserves. There is lots of great cheeses, great wines, and much other great stuff we have to thank to each of the individuals who made this C&W party the success it was. Yes, it might be among the least-academic parts of our conference, but at the same time, it's one of its most cherished -and successful- traditions. And above all else, we have to thank our Great Leader^W^WCheeseMaster (who we still need to convince to play by our Great Leader's mandates - And no, I don't mean Zack here!) Hugs and thanks to my good and dear friend Christian Perrier for giving form to one of DebConf's social traditions that makes it so unique, so different from every other academic or communitary conference I have ever been part of. We still have most of the week to go. And if you are not in Managua (and are not coming soon), you can follow our activities following our video streams. Remember, debian/rules, now more than ever! And even given the (perpetual) heat in Managua: Wheezy is frozen, whee! [ all photos here taken by regina ]

Arrived to Nicaragua. DebCamp has officially started!Submitted by gwolf on Sun, 07/01/2012 - 15:24
Yesterday night, Regina and me arrived to Nicaragua. Ready to greet us, we found quite a good number of good friends. We had a nice pizza+beer dinner at Diana's house, and some of the foreigners among us were distributed among the houses of several locals. This morning, we woke up –together with Víctor, Moray and Gaudenz– in Norman's brother's beautiful house. We had breakfast with the family, were picked up to go to the hotel that will have the ho(n|rr)or to host us all for the following two weeks, and walked to the Universidad Centroamericana (UCA) campus. Contrary to our usual practices... It seems everything is working fine! I mean, I'm sure we will stumble with some unforseen details and what not... But coming on the very first day to the university, to find that food is all sorted out, that we have food tickets (and they are all printed!), that network works (and it's by a fiber connection that was laid out expressly for us), that we have all the hardware I was worried about, that people are arriving and getting accepted at the hotel. I mean, things work! So, I'm quite optimistic this DebCamp will have everything ready to be a success — And the DebConf following it as well, of course! If you have not yet arrived - See you soon!

Turning failure into apparent success, and carrying on: e-voting in JaliscoSubmitted by gwolf on Mon, 06/18/2012 - 18:02
I will sound monothematic, but I have been devoting quite a bit of work to this topic lately: Trying to stop the advance of e-voting in Mexico, Latin America and the world. Why trying to stop it? Isn't technology supposed to help us, to get trustable processes? Yes, it's supposed to... but it just cannot achieve it, no matter how hard it is tried — I won't get into explanations in this blog post, but there is plenty of information. Feel free to ask me for further details. Anyway — Yesterday (Sunday, 2012-06-17) was the fifth simulated voting that will lead to the first wide-scale deployment of electronic voting booths in my country: About 10% of the population of the state of Jalisco (that means, ~500,000 people) will cast their votes on July 1st electronically. This particular case illustrates how simulated votings can be used to forge a lie: Pounce Consulting, the company that won the e-voting project for IEPC (Jalisco's voting authority), delivered their booths over 40 days late, just before the deadline for the project to be canceled. Oh, and by the way, it's the same company that just failed to deliver on time for another planned local authority (10% of the booths in the Federal District, where I live, where fortunately 100% of the votes will be cast on traditional, auditable and cheap paper). After this delay, five voting simulations were programmed, to get the local population acquinted with them. The first ones just failed to get the population's interest and had close to 40% failure rates (mainly regarding transmission). Several other "minor details" were reported, including mechanical details that allowed subsequent voters to see the vote of who had just left. Anyway, making long story short: The fifth and last simulation was held yesterday. Officially, it was finally successful (about time). As these booths include the "facilities" to communicate the results via the cellular network, but the populations where they are to be deployed do not yet have cellular coverage, 10% of the booths will have to be carried back to the Districtal Header (that can be a ~10hr trip) to be counted. Also, in all places, traditional paper stationery and paraphernalia will be printed just in case it is needed (and when will they now? When half of the votes are cast and lost?) Anyway... e-voting is still in its first stage in Mexico. Right now, I'm sure, no attempts to rig the election will be made (centrally). But every effort will be made (as it has been made) to dismiss the obviously big and nontrivial ways it has failed and will fail, and any problems will be labeled as "minor". And probably by 2018 we will be facing many more states (even nationwide) deployments. But propaganda fails to see the obvious: E-voting is more expensive, more complicated, leads to more possible failure states. E-voting should not be deployed in large-scale (i.e. more than a couple of hundred voters) elections. Electronic voting is insecure, violates secrecy, allows for fraud. No matter how many locks are put into it.

Links & Law - Information about legal aspects of search engines, linking and framing
And finally to a trademark related decision from Great Britain from 2004, which I apparently missed at the time: In 1986 Reed Employment registered the trade mark "Reed" for employment services. Reed Business Information had paid the search-engine company Yahoo for a banner advertisement for its website totaljobs.com to appear when a search was conducted under the term "reed". Overturning the High Court, the Court of Appeal ruled that the public would not be confused by the banner advert into thinking that totaljobs was connected to Reed Employment: "The web-using member of the public knows that all sorts of banners appear when he or she does a search and they are or may be triggered by something in the search. He or she also knows that searches produce fuzzy results � results with much rubbish thrown in. The idea that a search under the name Reed would make anyone think there was a trade connection between a totaljobs banner making no reference to the word 'Reed' and Reed Employment is fanciful. No likelihood of confusion was established."
The court also adressed meta-tags. See the full text of the decision!

Yahoo! JAPAN Launches Cloud Storage Service Powered by Riak CS
February 19, 2014
Basho is excited to announce that Yahoo! JAPAN has launched its new cloud storage service platform for the enterprise market in Japan, powered by Riak CS. Yahoo! JAPAN is the one of the most comprehensive web portals and the most popular search engine in Japan, surpassing Google.
Riak CS is Basho's cloud storage software that combines Amazon-class economics with the ability to customize and extend. It is built on Riak, Basho's distributed database that is highly efficient at storing and retrieving objects, even under extreme usage or failure scenarios. For extensibility, Riak CS adds compatibility with the Amazon S3 and OpenStack Swift API.
Yahoo! JAPAN is pushing hard to be number one in transaction value across the Japanese e-commerce marketplace. LOHACO, a popular internet shopping site operated by ASKUL Corporation, has been using Basho's Riak CS solution via Yahoo! JAPAN as backend storage for almost a year. Riak CS has proven to be a very stable system for LOHACO's needs.
"Enterprises require storage services that are cost-effective, reliable, and scalable. Yahoo! JAPAN has been able to create a cloud storage solution to meet these needs, as well as deliver access to our large networks and server infrastructure, by developing on Riak and Riak CS," said Shingo Saito, Cloud Product Manager at Yahoo! JAPAN. "Our partnership with Basho allows us to continue to build features that are beneficial to major enterprises and constantly improve our Cloud Storage Service by integrating with Riak, Riak CS, and future products from Basho."
Basho is proud of Yahoo! JAPAN's cloud service. We are excited to be a part of this great milestone.
Collecta Chooses Riak Search
December 15, 2009
Another big announcement for the team here at Basho: Collecta, which makes a truly cool real-time streaming search engine, has chosen to use Riak Search. They are longtime Webmachine users and when they learned about Riak, they partnered with us to define Riak Search and validate the prototype.
Look for a blog post later in the day from Justin Sheehy on what it was like to work with Collecta. (Hint: it was awesome!)
Stay tuned.

Wichita firm finds niche in small wind energy
With the aircraft industry down for months, if not years, at least one Wichita aircraft subcontractor is trying its luck in the wind energy market.
Electromech Technologies, 2600 S. Custer, makes electrical motors and actuators for airplanes.
Greg Jessup, vice president for new product development at Electromech, said company executives decided early on against getting into the commercial-scale side of wind energy, such as becoming a supplier to companies like Siemens.
The company isn't physically set up to make large components, Jessup said, and decided it didn't want to spend the money to do so.
So it's focusing on the small end of the wind energy market, called small wind, with turbines ranging from those for a single home to a large factory.
In the past year, Electromech has built prototypes of generators for 1- and 5-kilowatt turbines, although it plans to build them up to 25 kilowatts.
The company expects to sell the generators, and possibly the turbine's electronics, to an original equipment manufacturer. The OEM would sell the turbines to the public.
To learn more about the market and potential partners, executives traveled to a November conference on small wind in Detroit.
What they found is a niche. Generators for small wind turbines appear largely to be made overseas, which means higher transportation costs and more difficult product support.
"I saw zero makers of U.S. generators," Jessup said. "And several people came up to us and said, 'You are the only ones in the country.' There was a lot of interest."
He said Electromech executives estimate the generators could provide a healthy bit of diversification for the company.
"We're not going to say we'll sell $100 million," he said. "But if we start at $2 million or $3 million a year, that would be nice."
He estimated it would boost the firm's sales by about 10 percent.
But wind is new, and plenty of questions remain, Jessup said. For one, it appears their prototype would be too expensive for the market. They are tweaking the design to lower costs.
They don't know who they will sell to, or how it will be marketed, he said.
But company executives remains confident they are close.
"We see an opportunity and are planning on taking advantage of it," he said.

those at the Donalda Club where she enjoyed countless hours golfing,
curling and playing bridge. Alice struggled with Alzheimer's
for the last 10 years but never lost the twinkle in her eye or
the chance to give someone a little smile. She was a great example

and love. The family extends warm thanks to the staff at Unionvilla

TGF-beta(1), regulation of alzheimer amyloid precursor protein mRNA expression in a normal human astrocyte cell line: mRNA stabilization. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 10407185 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
The transforming growth factor, TGF-beta(1), has been found to be increased in the central nervous system of Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients, elevates amyloid precursor protein (APP) mRNA levels in rat primary astrocytes, and may initiate or promote the deposition of amyloid-beta (Abeta) peptide in AD. Excess APP production in AD, which potentially leads to amyloidogenesis, is in part due to over expression of APP mRNA. The production of APP in a normal human cell line in contrast to transformed or animal cells provides a meaningful model to study the regulation of APP gene expression by cytokines that promotes amyloidogenesis. Here, we report that TGF-beta(1) treatment of human astrocytes markedly elevated APP mRNA levels, and also increased the half-life of APP message by at least five-fold. Under this condition, as detected by mobility shift and UV cross-linking analysis, a novel 68 kDa RNA-protein complex was formed, involving an 81 nucleotide (nt) fragment within the 3'-untranslated region (UTR), but not the 5'-UTR and coding region of APP mRNA. Insertion of the 3'-UTR onto the chloramphenicol acetyl transferase (CAT) mRNA conferred TGF-beta(1) mediated mRNA stability in transfected human astrocytes. On the other hand, the same insert carrying a deletion of the APP mRNA cis-element fragment had no effect on CAT mRNA stability. A model of APP mRNA regulation is presented in which TGF-beta(1) induced stabilization of APP message involves the binding activity of a 68 kDa RNA-protein complex within the 3'-UTR, which is likely linked to a reduction in the rate of APP mRNA decay. |

Sounds to me like Flacco has rabbit ears. The correct response would be....
"We are winning, thats all that matters."
I heard a stat today that the Ravens are 12-0 when they run the ball more than 20 times and 0-4 when they run it less than that.
I am hoping between Flacco wanting to have his elite QB moment and Cam Cameron trying to be the "smartest man in the room" the Ravens might get away from the game plan that made them successful all year.
