HILLSVILLE, Va. — While the annual Labor Day Gun Show & Flea Market offers bargains, collectibles, food and much more, Carroll County's biggest event also brings a massive influx of people to Hillsville.
There are many ways to make the four-day event go smoother, said Hillsville Police Chief Greg Bolen, who will be in charge of the town's police force for the first time this year during the Labor Day Gun Show & Flea Market.
"Some of the things we are going to try to work on this year will be better than last year or any year prior," Bolen said. "We are going to try to get more information out to the public about where the police officers will be stationed, where rescue personnel will be stationed, and better areas for traffic patterns."
Anyone traveling on U.S. 58 during the Labor Day weekend can expect delays as traffic flow through Hillsville will be backed up at length. However, Bolen reminds everyone that the U.S. 58 Bypass is open and is an easy way to go around the town.
"That will alleviate a lot of the traffic congestion," Bolen said.
Bolen said the Hillsville Police Department will have officers stationed at West Grayson Street throughout the Flea Market and periodically at the intersection of Veterans Street and U.S. 58, as well as the intersection of Howlett Street and U.S. 58.
"We will also have officers toward the top of the four lane (on U.S. 58 headed toward Interstate 77) where the speed limit changes from 35 to 55. There's a lot of traffic congestion as well as pedestrian traffic, which warrants more concern," Bolen said.
Officers will also be patrolling all town areas, including the VFW lot, Hundley's Bottom, the Bowman Festival lot, Riley's lot, etc. The town police department will also bring back a bicycle patrol to help work the Flea Market this year.
"There will be officers on foot, in vehicles and on bikes this year," Bolen said. "VDOT will also have message boards describing traffic patterns for motorists. At the intersection of (U.S.) 52 and (U.S.) 58, we will have the no left turn lane on that side, so if you are traveling 52 North you will not be able to make a left turn onto 58 West. Motorists should be prepared for that. We've also requested some cameras from VDOT to post in some key locations so we can monitor traffic patterns. They are live patterns, not recorded, and we feel that will be more beneficial."
As far as actual shopping, Bolen wants to make sure the public is aware there are many knockoff and counterfeit items that come through the Flea Market each year.
"We try to combat that the best we can, but usually with an event like this all sales are final, so be leery. If it sounds too good to be true it probably is," Bolen said. "The DVDs and handbags are two of the main problems. The biggest thing we watch for is the illegal weapons they bring to sell. The reason we monitor that, some of them unfortunately sell to children, and you have some of them buying switchblades and throwing stars and things like that that are illegal in Virginia."
Bolen said the police department will be updating its Facebook page with important items to know about the Flea Market. For instance, he said restrictions for vendors will be updated on the site soon. Most vendors will be allowed to sell from 7 a.m. Friday to 6 p.m. Monday, but food vendors are allowed to sell at 6 a.m. on Thursday, and parking vendors can charge to park at the same time.
Rescue personnel will be standing by at the VFW building on Veterans Street and other areas. If the case of an emergency, Bolen urges people to call 9-1-1 or the Carroll County Sheriff's Office at 276-728-4146. Information of where to find officers, rescue personnel and free water stations will also be updated soon on the Hillsville Police Department's Facebook page, he said.
Changes this year
Flea Market Manager Andy Bowman is excited about changes for this year's Labor Day Gun Show & Flea Market, which he says will make things smoother for vendors, customers and VFW Post 1115 members alike.
One of the biggest changes this year will be a different entrance for handicapped parking.
"We've put it at an angle. Now you come through Gate 5 and go directly into it rather than having to go behind vendors. You go straight into the handicapped area in Gate 5," Bowman said. "It makes it a lot easier for handicapped parking, and it will be fully marked."
A new walk-in entry gate has also been added on the west end of the parking lot. Bowman said the new entry gate would help take traffic off the hill as well as congestion off Gates 1 and 2.
Additionally, a change in exit gates on Set Up Day should make things much easier on vendors, Bowman said. There will be five exits on Set Up Day, Thursday, for people to get back on top of the hill to park in, he added.
"All the ones on the paved area will be coming out on U.S. 58. They will come up to the stoplight, hang a right and go to the church and come back in," Bowman said. "The ones in the first grass section, Rows 1-10, will exit out onto Veterans Street, come down to 58 and around. It will make it so much easier rather than having to go back through all that traffic coming in to get out."
Bowman said vendors could also now come into the VFW on Tuesday to park a van or trailer in their space. The vehicle could be left in the space and vendors would be allowed to return Thursday to set up.
"It makes it so much easier. There will be a lot less traffic. They can just come in to the vendor parking and walk down and do their setup," said Bowman.
Wednesday will be regular vendor tent day, he said, where vendors will be allowed to put up their tents, unload their items under the tent, cover them, and then leave and come back for set up Thursday.
"Sales will not start until 7 a.m. Friday morning for any person, anywhere. No sales, no trading. No live animals can be sold," Bowman said. "No pets are allowed inside the VFW compound at all except helper dogs."

autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive. Both types have relatively mild signs and symptoms, which may include joint pain that most commonly affects the hips and knees; early-onset arthritis; a waddling walk; and mild short stature as adults. Recessive MED is additionally characterized by malformations of the hands, feet, and knees; scoliosis; and other abnormalities. The majority of individuals are diagnosed during childhood, but some mild cases may not be diagnosed until adulthood. Dominant MED is caused by mutations in the COMP, COL9A1, COL9A2, COL9A3, or MATN3 genes (or can be of unknown cause), and recessive MED is caused by mutations in the SLC26A2 gene.[1]Multiple epiphyseal dysplasia (MED) is a group of disorders of cartilage and bone development primarily affecting the ends of the long bones in the arms and legs (epiphyses). There are two types, which are distinguished by their patterns of inheritance -

Round Robin: TiPb vs. the iPhone 3G Final Review
[This is an official Smartphone Experts Round Robin post! Every day you reply here, you're automatically entered for a chance to win an iPhone 3G, Case-Mate Naked Case, and Motorola H9 Bluetooth Headset! Full contest rules here!]
After 4 weeks sampling Google's Android G1, Palm's (HTC's) Treo (Windows Mobile) Pro, HTC's Windows Mobile FUZE, and RIM's BlackBerry Bold, it's back, and I'm back.
A lot has happened since Dieter ripped the still beeping iPhone 3G from my cold, not-even-dead hand. Promo codes hit the App Store. iFart apps did to (and made a killing -- sigh). And, of course, Apple released a little something called firmware 2.2.
Admittedly, I cheated a bit. I checkout out the new firmware and the new Google Maps, but I really haven't had the chance to use iPhone OS 2.2 as my "daily driver", not until now.
I've reviewed the iPhone software several times now, for 2.0, 2.1, and 2.2, so I'll spare you the regurgitation, because something else has happened to: I've spent time with all those other smartphones. I've experienced some things still unavailable on the iPhone, some I've really liked, others... well, check the videos for the Android G1, Treo Pro, HTC FUZE, and BlackBerry Bold if you haven't already.
Instead, I'm going to focus on that: returning to the iPhone and looking at it again through eyes now widened by our sibling sites' signature devices. And I'm going to start after the jump!
iPhone vs. Android
When it comes to the Android, everything seems to boil down to "openness" -- unlike the iPhone, which is strictly controlled by Apple and the App Store, pretty much anyone who wants to (and knows Java) can code for Android and give away (and maybe eventually sell) what they want, where the want, and how they want. (Within reason, Google still has a kill switch all their own.)
But big deal. Android's openness is cliched to the point that that the strawman is wincing. I'm going to propose that neither open nor proprietary, chaos nor order are inherently good or bad, and more importantly, really matter to the end user. Both have advantages and drawbacks -- it is what's ultimately brought forth from each platform that matters (the iPhone, after all, has a Darwin kernel, OpenGL, and other non-proprietary code at its core).
Sure, developers want to express themselves with as little restriction as possible, but they also want to feed their families. Consumers want that next great paradigm-shifting application but they download fart gags in droves. (Unless I missed the memo saying those were one and the same?)
So I'm taking the App Store vs. Android Market off the table. Likewise, I'm ditching the infinite possible Android hardware options vs. the iPhone's singularity of form and function. Android will give developers more options but more headaches, users more choices but more confusion. Wash.
So what did my week with the G1 teach me about the iPhone? Apple needs to worry about cloud services.
Push Gmail is nice. Push Gmail is fine. Having a separate Gmail app is a dumb idea, and Gmail's IMAP implementation is so buggy, every time I get an "invalid certificate" or "too many concurrent connection" error I consider abandoning it forever, Contacts are a disgrace, and everything has been in beta beyond the point of embarrassment, but here's the thing: Google owns the cloud and they're beginning to show it with Android.
I've said before that one big advantage the iPhone has is it gets Google as well as Apple, while Android gets only Google, but that may not always be the case. Sure, Google wants the eyeballs (and advertising dollars -- never forget their core business) of the iPhone's user base, much as they do Windows Mobile, BlackBerry, and every other platform mobile and otherwise, but that may only be until such time as they own the platform as well.
MobileMe is a start. We can spare the botched launch jokes -- for a few months now MobileMe has been solid, and while it provides some killer functionality for Mac users (Back to My Mac, Mac Sycn, etc.), using the Android really made me think Apple has to up its Cloud game and fast.
First, iPhone needs more robust email functionality. Skip the non-standard labels, but give me filters/rules, the ability to star/flag, and otherwise raise the on-device and web-based feature power to desktop Mail.app levels with Gmail-type power and even better usability.
Get CalDAV really rocking, let me share and subscribe to/publish calendars. Again, iCal power in my hand and on the web.
CardDAV would be nice too, with the same sharing, subscribing, and publishing abilities for contacts, with status rolled in for good measure.
And get those notes syncing, along with the Tasks already built in.
Sure, Android doesn't do all this, but I'm positive it will. Maybe not Android 2.0, maybe not even 3.0, but as soon as Google stops pulling a Microsoft and actually gets their act integrated, they'll go from owning the cloud to leveraging it. That, above open markets and variable form factors, is what I'll really be keeping my Android eye on, and that is what I want to see Apple not only compete with, but raise the bar again in terms of elegance of design and function.
iPhone vs. Palm Treo Pro/HTC FUZE
I'm putting the two HTC-built, Windows Mobile running smartphones together. Blame Palm, not me. Actually, blame both Microsoft and Palm because as much as the Palm OS was abandoned to the point that we couldn't even include it in the round robin, Windows Mobile showed me its aging platform wasn't that far from a similar fate. Sure, Palm OS 2.0 Nova, and Windows Mobile 7 are both on the horizon, but as of this writing, both are still vaporware, and both have suffered similar grand promises and heartbreaking delays to the point of asking: it's 2008, do you know where your 3rd party developers are? (Hint: browsing the AppDroid MarkStore).
In all fairness, however, I'm less worried about Windows Mobile because, well, Microsoft has a winzillion dollars to keep funding it, and like Google they're investing a ton of that cash in the cloud. So, while Live! Mesh Azure is a near impenetrable clusterfrak, with integration almost as badly broken as its branding, it won't always be. They're building data centers like QuickyMarts and Ballmer's right, they'll just keep coming and coming, and they could eventually nail it. I could very well get my ZuneBoxPhone Live! one day.
So, just like I'm taking a pass on the openness and flexibility of Android, I'm skipping the old standbys of power and configurability with Windows Mobile. Overhead and complicating clutter render them zero-sum gains anyway.
What will I focus on? Apple's 360 degree integration, from Final Cut Pro to iTunes to AppleTV to MobileMe is so far unmatched, but it's by no means unmatchable. Microsoft, with its Kraken-like tentacles, could go a full 520 degrees. We can make all the clumsy giant jokes we like, but getting crushed by a clumsy giant doesn't make you any less crushed.
Case in point, the HTC Touch HD. We didn't get it in the round robin (it's not, and won't be, officially available in North America), but it shows what type of technology can be put into an iPhone-sized package. I've repeated far too often already that I want (and fully expect) to see an iPhone HD come WWDC in June, 2009. Keeping pace in the hardware war is just one step. Others will involve some patents Apple has already filed, especially with streaming video (TiVo meets Slingbox).
Notice I'm talking about entertainment in a Microsoft segment, not Exchange, not remote device management, not office documents, because a) Microsoft is pushing hard in the consumer products space and that's where Apple dominates, and b) this isn't the BlackBerry segment, in which -- quite frankly -- those subjects would be more appropriate given market share.
iPhone vs. BlackBerry Bold
So let's not talk about Exchange, remote device management, or office documents here either, b'okay. Consider them the last of my stereotypical aversions. As well as BlackBerry handles those tasks -- and handle them well it irrefutably does -- there's something BlackBerry does infinitely better that Apple needs to consider and contend with: it's creates CrackBerry.com members.
That's not a sibling site plug. As much as the NOC and BIS/BES is an overly-proprietary single-point-of-failure, security and privacy bag half-filled with hurt, it creates an environment that once you get into, you can't easily get out of.
It's not that the BlackBerry calls to you. Having something blink at me is not nearly as compelling as having an iPhone just sitting there, not telling you if you have to pick it up or not -- ensuring you check it when you may not even have to. It's that once you get the true push, once you get the direct PIN to PIN messaging, it becomes like a community. Your sales team might all have them, but your friends and family might all have them as well.
We've seen the same thing with Twitter. People go where their friends are, and once you have the momentum of community, it creates a significant barrier of exit. Who wants to leave their community behind? It's why Pownce and Jaiku and other status engines have failed.
While Apple should be applauded for embracing open standards like IMAP IDLE and built amazing technology with OS X 10.5 Server, they've done relatively little to promote any sort of community around the iPhone, and what little they have done is handled by third parties via the App Store.
This from the company that told people to Think Different. That created the Cult of Mac. I spoke about the cloud with Android and the integration with Windows Mobile, and here Apple needs a bit of both. And come on, it's not like snooty Apple fans wouldn't jump at the chance to be "official" snooty Apple fans.
I'm not the first to suggest this. I'm probably not the hundred and first. But Apple needs to put a little addiction of their own in the iPhone. Mobile iChat would be a great start. Give MobileMe Lite away for free with every iPhone, tied to an always on, multitasking Mobile iChat (supporting not only open Jabber and proprietary AIM and iChat protocols, but Twitter as well -- Dieter's right about cross-platform presence ruling it all), and toss in a super silky smooth CoreLocation-powered social iNetwork along with it. Make PIN seem Paleolithic. Make the NOC the next Friendster.
The Smartphone Experts Round Robin was a stroke of genius. Not only does it let sometimes myopic editors experience the greater gadget world, but it hopefully brings our readers with us (and gives some lucky winners some free smartphones for their trouble). Sometimes we think our chosen device does something really well and don't realize just how well (and sometimes how differently) other device do the same. Likewise, sometimes we have gripes about our device that turn out to be far worse elsewhere.
It's a reality check of the first order. Android's potential, Windows Mobile's legacy, BlackBerry's connection, and in the end?
Thanks to everyone on the Android Central, Treo Central, CrackBerry.com, and WMExperts forums for all their help, my fellow editors Casey, Jennifer, and Kevin, and our editor-in-chief Dieter Bohn for their many insights.
A month and a marathon of reviews later, I love my iPhone more than ever, but also think I understand it more than ever as well. And most importantly, I know what I want to see from it, and from Apple, for the next Smartphone Experts Round Robin in 2009.

Round Robin: TiPb vs. the iPhone 3G Final Review
Great summary of the benefits and limitations of the phones in the Round Robin. I hope with the next releases of the iPhone OS and upgrades to the hardware, Apple will build an even more compelling device.
And your idea to get some crack in the iPhone through developing a community is exactly what is needed. To Apples benefit, they have sold enough iPhones that once they do that, there are enough potential people in the community to make it work.
This post sums up of the whole round robin experience for me. The iPhone seems to fit most of my smartphone needs but I would like to see apple borrow from the strengths of the other platforms (HTC's 3rd eye candy, blackberry's messaging, window's mobile's customization, android's notification window).
I've really enjoyed the round robin this year, and can't wait to see how things are different in 2009!
Nice wrap-up, Rene.
While I agree that the iPhone is still missing some needed features, I still don't understand why so many people want so much excess clutter and options on a mobile device. Sure, Mail could be improved with flagging and Calendar improved with To-Dos, Copy/Paste, Push, etc, etc. But the whole purpose of being "mobile" is to be able to take care of quick needs "on-the-go" in a compact, and convenient way... not to labor through endless menus, settings, and options for things that can wait. That's what sets the iPhone apart from these other "over-the-top" devices. But, sometimes I get the feeling the more pretentious WinMo and BlackBerry users don't ever want to see their homes, their families, or their computers again. They want the kitchen sink with them wherever they go while they miss out on life. It's ridiculous. Gmail? Google Calendars? Google this, Google that? Ughhh... no thanks. The less redundant third-party nonsense, the better.
Perhaps some should consider why they've abandoned these other devices to switch over to the iPhone, only to harass Apple into making their device exactly like the ones that drove them away. :shock:
I feel like the guy whose neighborhood is being trashed by urban dwellers who burned theirs down.
Well said. I think what it comes down to now is the companies themselves needing to listen to their users/support base. Things like the questionnaire from att about the iphone are a good first step. A lot of companies/carriers right now sometimes get stuck in the idea of that they tell us what we need/want and that it should be enough.
Good review, really shows me iphone is on top and will continue to be.
I am really tempted to get a Bold as my secondary device to my iPhone 3G and I am anxious to see what new Android phones are coming out next year. I really think a great phone is going to come out that will finally compete with the iPhone and it will be running Android on it.
Great conclusion. I remember when Apple released the first iPhone and how other companies said "bah!" at them. Now everyone is playing the catch up game. Personally I don't care who "wins" I just know that a lot of great smartphones will be released and that should make the consumer the winner.
Beautiful finale
Guys there are mad trad shows comming up in the first 2 weeks of january.... so just hold out on getting that bold Mr. Hi-Definition... you dont know what appple or microsoft will come out with... just some advice wait just alittle longer... i cant wait to see the up and comming devices with both componies... iphone HD i WILL get that haha
Great review, can't wait for android 3.0. I think iphone is much better as compared to android based phones :)
I was just at the apple store the day asfter xmas and I was in a Line lose to a guy that wanted an apple rep to fully explain the difference between iphone and blackberry. I just recently switched from blackberry (pearl,curve, bold) in that order so i could tell him quite a bit but I realized that in my blackberry phase no one could tell me what was wrong with my blackberry. It was God. My friends are still mad that they cant BB IM me 34 billion times a day about nothing lol. And my email doesnt ding every two seconds with crap i dont want between school and work (it fetches every 30 thanks :-). Yet I now find myself looking for new things to download. Funny enough its currently jailbroken and i un did it for a while just because with the app store there are similar apps popping up and apple is finally loosening the restrictions. Its hard for me to really find many differences anymore (except mms and forwarding of emails and flash on my camera) than my blackberry. My iphone might actually be more of a companion than my blackberry because while i always had to wait and wait and wait for a problem on my blackberry to be fixed "officially" the app store seemingly is booming everyday with something new bringing me one step closer. .....i know that was long.... COME ON PUSH NOTIFICATIONS FOR AIM lol.
typo "in a line close to" and ...i meant forwarding of sms. sorry.
Just bought an iphone for my wife and I have a Treo Pro which I really like, so will be interesting comparing first (well second to her) hand... I couldn't switch based on some of the iPhone's shortcomings that I've come to expect and use often (A2DP, copy/paste, true GPS,full streaming audio among others), but should be a good first smartphone for her.
Had a htc Touch and just gave up on it and bought the iphone 3b good reviews by the way :)
a really nice wrap up.
my own view is that iphone is the very first (smart)phone that i do "love". and i have had many. it has it's shortcomings and flaws (most of which can still be addressed), still none of them are a deal breakers (at least for me) and if it were perfect, what would we be left wishing for?
First time writing a review....
U no im a mobile maniac iv just all handsets out there in the market. U name it and iv used that handset. i mean regardless of price, thats what sort of maniac i am..
Now i have 6 iphone 3 of them 2g and 3 of 3g. all my family got one..
i was the second person in Leicester to take a contract out and the first one to get the 3g when that one came out..
"There is NO handset in the world that would beat the iphone 3g"
Believe me when i say their is nothing I mean NOTHING to beat the iphone 3g.
(The 1 & ONLY iphone 3g) and it ruleszzzzzzzzzzz.............
I have an iphone 1st gen 16g. I love it! EVERYONE around me (work, friends etc...) always finds it necessary to remind me of the it's short comings. I find it very interesting that they are always comparing their phone to mine. meanwhile I do not find it necessary to even ask what kind of phone they have. people are searching. I have found what I want and am happy with what I have, even with all it's "flaws" which I have been able to live with for the past 11 months.
I am not at all computer language literate and with my phone I do not have to be, THAT is what I paid for. So, Please, Apple do not completely open up your platform to the third party software mess, keep it simple. simple is beautiful.
P.S. IChat on IPhone? I hope APPLE makes it "Just Work" so I don't have to. Looking forward to living life with a Great phone...not on a Great phone.
I really enjoyed the reviews with the iPhone perspective. Just wanted to say thanks...even though I'm still on the crack more than ever.
One of the best reviews. Very nicely done.
Fair enough review and honest. But the reality is this, focusing on the consumer segment will only take a smartphone so far. That Blackberry "community" you mention started with entirely business users, and they still make up the bulk of it. Blackberrys dominate in the federal government, where cameras are often forbidden and security is #1. That's a real market, and if you don't make an offering that addresses it, you're leaving a big slice of the pie to somebody else. I actually think the next step we'll see from the iPhone will be enhanced security features for the enterprise to go along with Activesync and maybe a camera-less version at some point. In two years, people will forget there was a Twitter, and will move on to the next fad. Only a few, like You Tube, have real staying power. MySpace and Facebook are possibilities to hang around, but probably just one survives. Remember when AOL dominated the internet, seems laughable now doesn't it.
Thanks a lot Rene,
I don't want to talk about what's great things or the lack of in iPhone.
I rather want to point out your great final analysis no of the iPhone itself but about what's really important which is the current cultural and marketing position of users and companies and what it means for the future.
All this happened thanks to the creators of this incredible concept, the round robin.
The iPhone 3g is indeed a great little device. Personally I'm hoping to get one so I can write some apps for it. Aspirations of iFart I guess :)
The iphone 3g was the first in the revolution and they have been ahead will always be ahead. Everyone is playing catch up and thats how it always will be the Iphone is the best!!
I wouldn't mind having an unlocked iPhone for T-mobile, but as it is I love my G1.
iPhone 3G!!
I think the iphone has plenty of crack value even without a BB-like life-engulfing community stranglehold. Just try to put it down once you've started playing labyrinth or shaking it to find a place for dinner - you just can't stop! If that isn't a crack-like addiction, I don't know what is. I wonder what it says as a social commentary that the Blackberry creates an addiction to being connected to a community and being in on the constant flow of information between community members, and the iphone creates an addiction to playing with the device itself, by yourself, which will ultimately lead to you never having or wanting any contact with anyone else ever again. Or maybe that's just me...
Rene seems to have wrapped up well before the rest. Still waiting for the final analysis from the other reviewers. It has been interesting an informative.
I can't wait to see what you will think of the Palm Pre compared to the iPhone.
interesting review, i am a windows mobile fan, but i think i will give the iphone a shot
Judge: Mr. Hutz we've been in here for four hours. Do you have any evidence at all?Lionel Hutz: Well, Your Honor, we've got plenty of hearsay and conjecture; those are kinds of evidence...

Advancement News
Alumni, Stars Turn Out for NYC Theatre BenefitPosted Apr. 30, 2010
Broadway and Hollywood glamour provided the luster for an April 14 benefit in New York City to raise funds for the new Louis Erdmann and William Zucchero Theatre. The black-box space, part of the Roe Green Center for the School of Theatre and Dance, is currently under construction with an opening set for fall 2010.
Emmy-winner Jeff Richmond and Tony-winner Alice Ripley, '86, both alumni of the program and honorary co-chairs for the E-Z Theatre campaign, hosted and performed a lively show that entertained a crowd of Kent State supporters. Alumni Karl Erdmann, '84, and Wendy Zucchero Overly, '82, also spoke about the legacy of their fathers, for whom the theatre is named.
Among the guests were Richmond's wife, actress and writer Tina Fey; 30 Rock executive producers Lorne Michaels and Marci Klein; Kent State President Lester A. Lefton and his wife, Linda; philanthropist Roe Green, '80, whose $6.5 million gift makes the new center possible; Centennial Campaign Chair Ron Pizzuti, '62; and Cil Draime, '58, who is the largest contributor to the campaign to date.

But this is deffinatly.. probably not classified as paranormal news. I doubt the "community" cares that yet another of my years have slogged by. But is was nice and you are so sweet. I don't hate spiders or anyother critter for that matter but I certainly don't go around and looking under rocks to bring them in my house. In fact if a see a spider bigger than a dime I collect them and put them out. Except for house spiders but they don't bite. The point is I may think there interesting but I'm not overly fond of them.

Security realms allow you to secure your web applications against unauthorized access. Protection is based on authentication (identifying who is requesting access to the webapp) and access control (restricting what can be accessed and how it is accessed within the webapp).
A webapp statically declares its security requirements in the web.xml file. Authentication is controlled by the
<login-config> element. Access controls are specified by
<security-constraint> and
<security-role-ref> elements. When a request is received for a protected resource, the web container checks if the user performing the request is authenticated, and if the user has a role assignment that permits access to the requested resource.
The Servlet Specification does not address how the static security information in the
WEB-INF/web.xml file is mapped to the runtime environment of the container. Jetty does this with the "realm" concept.
A realm has a unique name, and is composed of a set of users. Each user has authentication information (e.g. a password) and a set of roles associated with him/herself.
You may configure one or many different realms depending on your needs. A single realm would indicate that you wish to share common security information across all of your web applications. Distinct realms allow you to partition your security information webapp by webapp.
When a request to a web application requires authentication or authorization, Jetty will use the
<login-config><realm-name> element in the web.xml file to perform an exact match to a realm defined in a jetty xml configuration file (or programmatically).
Realm definitions in jetty xml configuration files are placed in a section like this:
Alternatively, you may define a realm for just a single webapp in a context deployment file:
Jetty provides a number of different realm types from which you can choose.
This realm is a simple realm whose autentication and authorisation information is stored in a properties file. Each line in the file contains a username, a password, and 0 or more role assignments. The format is:
- username is the user's unique identity
- password is the user's (possibly obfuscated or MD5 encrypted) password
- rolename is the user's role
For example:
The HashUserRealm is configured with a name and a reference to the location of the properties file:
You can also configure it to check the properties file regularly for changes and reload when changes
are detected. The
refreshInterval is in seconds:
In this implementation, authentication and role information is stored in a database accessed via JDBC. A properties file defines the JDBC connection and database table information. Below is an example of a properties file for this realm implementation:
The format of the database tables is:
- users is a table containing one entry for every user consisting of:
- id - the unique identity of a user
- user - the name of the user
- pwd - the user's password (possibily obfuscated or MD5 encrypted)
- user-roles is a table containing one row for every role granted to a user:
- user_id - the unique identity of the user
- role_id - the role for a user
- roles is a a table containing one role for every role in the system:
- id is the unique identifier of a role
- role is a human-readable name for a role
If you want to use obfuscated, MD5 hashed or encrypted passwords the 'pwd' column of the 'users' table must be large enough to hold the obfuscated, hashed or encrypted password text plus the appropriate prefix.
The pseudo-sql to set up each of these tables would look like:
A JDBCRealm is defined with the name of the realm and the location of the properties file describing the database:

RICHARD FERGUSON updates Keo.co.za followers of the latest Super Rugby news from New Zealand.
Savea out on bail
Julian Savea appeared before a court in New Zealand this morning in a case of assault against him, brought on by his partner. Savea was granted bail and will appear in court again at a later date.
Savea was quoted as saying that he admits he and his partner got involved in an argument and that he did things that he knows he shouldn't have, and that he apologises for that.
It is unsure whether Savea would continue playing for the Hurricanes while awaiting his next court appearance, which is in a month's time – 15 May.
Saili due in court
While Savea has had his day in court, Francis Saili is set to get his chance for driving while being disqualified to do so.
In Saili's case, he has been dropped from the starting fifteen to play the Reds this weekend. Blues coach John Kirwan said that Saili will appear in court tomorrow, and has apologised to the team.
Rennie turns red
Chiefs coach Dave Rennie has blasted his team for their lack of conviction in the loss to the Waratahs on the weekend. The Waratahs beat the Chiefs in an entertaining match, which saw the Chiefs come back in the second half, thinking that they had done enough to win the match.
Rennie admitted that the Waratahs outplayed the Chiefs and they fully deserved the win, but that the Waratahs' real test will be during their tour of South Africa, which kicks off this weekend.
The Waratahs face the Bulls and the Kings on their tour, and while the Bulls match will be tough, they are not underestimating the Kings. The Kings are unbeaten against Australian opposition this season, and will keep it that way should they manage a win over Michael Cheika's side.

White House Helicopter Fleet
Did you know that the White House has a fleet of 19 helicopters? The Washington Post today discusses efforts to replace this fleet of aging Sikorsky's with 21 new vehicles yet to be procured. The fleet is used by the president, vice president, and cabinet secretaries.
Risking Taxpayer Dollars on DOE Loan Guarantees
In February, I highlighted the Department of Energy's issuance of a $6.5 billion loan guarantee to build a nuclear power facility in Georgia. At the time, the project was behind schedule with cost overruns, and the project's owners had already secured private financing. Yet DOE issued the loan guarantee anyway.
BLM vs. the Nevada Rancher
The battle between Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy and the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) might be viewed as an overly aggressive federal bureaucracy enforcing misguided environmental regulations vs. an oppressed individual and his overly enthusiastic supporters with guns.
The Shocking Secret Behind Obamacare Enrollment Numbers
Barack Obama wants you to know he enrolled 7.5 million Americans through Obamacare's health insurance Exchanges. What he doesn't want you to know is how.
Government Keeps Growing
Political scientist Matt Grossmann discussed the results of his research on federal government growth in the Washington Post last week.
Close the Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing Program
The Government Accountability Office's annual duplication report is out. This year, the report highlights 30 ways that the federal government can save money. One way is to terminate the Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing (ATVM) program, which provides government-subsidized loans to companies that make fuel-efficient cars. The program has been a failure, and it has cost taxpayers millions of dollars.
The Income Tax vs. Civil Liberties
The Internal Revenue Service scandal over the targeting of conservative groups has highlighted the agency's power to obstruct our political freedoms. Filing taxes every April also drives home how the government reduces our freedom.
Jeb Bush's Fiscal Record
Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush is considering running for president. One good thing about presidential contenders who have been governors is that they have a measurable track record.
50 Years of Federal Spending
Fifty years ago, one of the biggest-spending presidents in U.S. history was settling into office after coming to power the prior November. Lyndon Johnson signed into law Medicare, Medicaid, and hundreds of subsidy programs for the states and cities.
FEMA Disaster Declarations
I am writing a study on the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and looking at the issue of presidential disaster declarations. Under the 1988 Stafford Act, a state governor may request that the president declare a "major disaster" in the state if "the disaster is of such severity and magnitude that effective response is beyond the capabilities of the state and the affected local governments."

Synology Media Server and Backups
Sorry to post another home media server thread, but I've not been able to piece together all the info out there into a definitive answer for what I'm looking for.
As most, I'm outgrowing my current storage setup. I've been storing all my music, photos and handbraked dvds to a 1 TB hard drive. It is getting close to full. I've also have been considering handbraking my blu-rays and adding them to the mix.
Currently I have been streaming my content from a 2008 mac pro to two different atv's. So far, this has been working pretty good. I also have a 1.66 Intel Core Duo mac mini with 2Gb of Ram. I was hoping to start using it at some point to relieve the mac pro. The mac pro is overkill and is more of work machine.
I think I've settled on a synology NAS server. Maybe the DS412+.
What is the best way to set this up for my needs mentioned above? And, how do you handle backups? This is the one item I'm confused on the most. Would I utilize the synology for this as well? Or, do I need a separate hard drive setup for that?
One other item I've read is that some people recommend running cat5e or cat6 to any room possible that has a tv. What is this for?
Thanks for any help or advice.
|Nov 28, 2012, 07:38 PM
I believe Synology has proprietary raid technology similar to Raid 5, where if 1 disk fails, you can swap the failed drive and the raid will rebuild itself without losing your data. However, raid 5 isn't a substitute for a backup. Meaning, it's fine to use raid 5 for your NAS, but you need a separate backup solution.
For myself, I used a 9 TB Raid 0 array in the Mac Pro as a server and then used an external Raid 5 to back it up. Alternatively, if your capacity needs are low now, you could just swap a 3 TB or 4 TB hard drive into your mac pro and use it to backup your Synology NAS until your storage needs increase.

I use an externally connected USB drive to back up my Synology NAS once a week using the built-in Synology backup software module.

Sorry late reply. Thanks for the help. Any other tips or hurdles I might encounter on path to a NAS solution?
Also, with the Synology raid 5 can I buy one drive today and as that fills add a second and third drive as needed? Or, do I need to buy enough drives to fill all the bays at the beginning?
|Dec 2, 2012, 07:38 AM
To do any type of RAID at all you need a minimum of two drives....to do RAID 5 you need at least three.

1) synology acts as time machine, i.e you reserve a part of your diskvolume for this.
2) regarding cat 5 or6 that means 100mbit,1 gb network and the reason is to stream you HD movies with minimum latency.
|Dec 4, 2012, 06:14 AM
For Example: If you have a 1TB drive you start with, you can NEVER put in a 750GB drive. You can, however, put in a 1.5TB drive. However, if you start with a 2TB drive, you can never put in a 1.5TB drive after. To emphasize, start with your smallest drive you have (or ever plan on using) and use that, then use same size or larger drives from then on.
Also, there is a major reason to fill up all drive slots beforehand if you don't like waiting, or if you are looking for both more space AND backup ability. First of all, building a RAID array takes a LONG LONG LONG TIME. I'm talking literally 2-3 days. If you add in 1TB of data onto those drive arrays that time increases to more like 1 week. So if you want to save yourself time in the long run, build the array now with all your drives, then you'll never have to worry about it again (unless a drive fails).
First of all, when installing a drive, it must be formatted completely before it will be usable within the server. This means ERASING EVERYTHING on your drive, so make sure to either A) buy a new one, or B) back up the data before putting the drive in there.
From there, you can set your drive(s) up as Synology Hybrid RAID, which will work under the following stipulations:
In terms of Time Machine: All you will have to do is set up time machine in the preferences of the Synology unit, then point your Time Machine to the specified folder from your iMac. It will work exactly the same as an external Hard Drive except you wont have to keep connecting it to backup.
I hope this post answers your questions, if not, PM me and Ill see what I can do. I'm a very proud owner of a Synology DS413j and should be able to answer most questions you'll have.
|Dec 4, 2012, 09:27 AM
I am a big fan of Synology and recommend them. However, when Mountain Lion came out Time Machine stopped working. They suggested I try the Release 4 Beta but heard others were having problems with that. So, I decided to get a Time Capsule for my Time Machine Backups.
How I use Synology.
I have the DS212+ with 2 x 2TB Drives (RAID 1 MIRROR). I have an exact duplicate at my home. We use the one at the office for all of our business files which supports APF and SMB File sharing with ease. It has a built in backup utility to mirror the DS212+ on the home unit. The home unit has an attached 3TB USB Drive. The home unit has what they call Timed Backup (works like Time Machine) for backing up the home unit so I have history of changes.
I just recently started using the built in VPN on the office unit for employee connections. Rock Solid.
It has numerous other Apps that run on the Synology Platform but I have not taken advantage of them.
Great Box....
|Dec 6, 2012, 02:16 PM
Also the utility that makes the home unit mirror the office unit... is that complicated to set up? Secure going over the web?
|Dec 6, 2012, 02:21 PM
These utilities are part of the Synology Applications and are easy to setup. The UI for Snology is Web Based (browser) and very friendly.

|Dec 6, 2012, 03:50 PM
Synology's GUI supports several routers including the AirPort Extreme. It can open required ports automatically when Router Configuration is used.
|Dec 6, 2012, 08:44 PM
As far as a back up goes are you saying that the back up would also be stored on the same synolgy box? I would like to be able to back up my entire system plus all of the media on the synology. What is the best way to go about this?
One other question. Say I go ahead and fill up all 4 drives with 3TB drives and they get full. Can you swap in new larger drives? Or, is that impossible and it will time to move on to the new latest and greatest?
Thanks again for the help.
|Dec 7, 2012, 01:24 PM
I haven't tried it, but supposedly if you set up your unit using Synology's "hybrid" RAID, you can swap in larger drives later - one at a time until they all rebuild.
2012 2.3GHz i7 Mini, 16GB RAM; 2009 2.93 GHz C2D iMac, 8GB RAM, GT120 GPU
1.83 GHz CD Mini, 2GB RAM, 200GB HD; 1.25 GHz 17" G4 iMac, 2GB RAM, 128GB SSD

|Dec 9, 2012, 12:10 AM
I'm sure, again, however, that there is no true limitation to drive size unless they go past some software block that could be easily updated by Synology.
To answer your question about backup, you are correct that time machine will update directly to the NAS unit. From there, there is a built in backup option on Synology NAS units in which you can back up all data on the NAS itself to an external drive. Keep in mind that you will need to have the same amount of drive space (not counting redundancy) as the NAS to make a full backup.

by Elizabeth Palmberg | May 2011
Bio: Volunteer with Latinos United for Clean Air (LUCA) in Fresno, California
1. How does your faith motivate you?
As a Christian, I believe that God is on the side of poor and oppressed people. Because of my faith, I want to do what I can to be a blessing to people who are taken advantage of. Environmental justice issues, such as the right to breathe clean air and to have clean water to drink, are things that churches should be involved in.
Take Action on This Issue
2. What are LUCA's main ways of pursuing environmental justice?
Members give presentations such as "Air Quality 101" and "Clean Homes, Healthy Families" to school and church groups around Fresno. We also support sister organizations in our area who are struggling for justice for their communities. At least once a year, we go to the state capital to advocate for better laws that protect the environment we live in, especially for socially vulnerable communities.
3. Who is one person you've worked with that really inspires you?
Last year, LUCA went to Kettleman City, a town about an hour away from Fresno, where there has been a very high rate of birth defects. Several mothers who had lost their babies, or whose children are very sick because of environmental injustices, shared their struggle with us. I met Miguel Alatorre, a high school student who is the leader of Kids Protecting Our Planet, and I was very inspired by the way that he and his friends are helping to fight against the unjust amount of pollution near their town.
4. What's at the heart of your environmental concern?
I don't really consider myself an environmentalist. It is important to care for creation, but I'm much more passionate about environmental justice, because it's about people. In California, poor people and people of color suffer the most from industrial and agricultural pollution. LUCA speaks out for Latinos and other groups who suffer because of the decisions that businesses and governments have made. We believe it is a moral issue, and we work alongside faith-based groups such as Fresno Metro Ministry to speak out for environmental justice.
5. How is your child's life different from your own childhood? What do you hope for his future?
In Caracas, Venezuela, where I grew up, there wasn't much awareness about environmental issues. Even though we live in one of the poorer neighborhoods in Fresno, which has some of the worst air in the United States, the air and water here are still cleaner than in the city where I grew up. I hope that my son, Gabriel, will get to live in a time when everybody can breathe clean air, no matter where they live.
6. What gives you hope?
It seems like churches are becoming more concerned about issues of environmental justice. Even in churches where people say that they don't believe in climate change, the young people, at least, are becoming involved in social issues. Groups such as Kids Protecting Our Planet give me hope.

The Last Will and Testament of Silverdene Emblem O'Neill
I, SILVERDENE EMBLEM O'NEILL (familiarly known to my family, friends, and acquaintances as Blemie), because the burden of my years and infirmities is heavy upon me, and I realize the end of my life is near, do hereby bury my last will and testament in the mind of my Master. He will not know it is there until after I am dead. Then, remembering me in his loneliness, he will suddenly know of this testament, and I ask him then to inscribe it as a memorial to me. I have little in the way of material things to leave. Dogs are wiser than men. They do not set great store upon things. They do not waste their days hoarding property. They do not ruin their sleep worrying about how to keep the objects they have, and to obtain the objects they have not. There is nothing of value I have to bequeath except my love and my faith. These I leave to all those who have loved me, to my Master and Mistress, who I know will mourn me most, to Freeman who has been so good to me, to Cyn and Roy and Willie and Naomi and -- But if I should list all those who have loved me, it would force my Master to write a book. Perhaps it is vain of me to boast when I am so near death, which returns all beasts and vanities to dust, but I have always been an extremely lovable dog.
I ask my Master and Mistress to remember me always, but not to grieve for me too long. In my life I have tried to be a comfort to them in time of sorrow, and a reason for added joy in their happiness. It is painful for me to think that even in death I should cause them pain. Let them remember that while no dog has ever had a happier life (and this I owe to their love and care for me), now that I have grown blind and deaf and lame, and even my sense of smell fails me so that a rabbit could be right under my nose and I might not know, my pride has sunk to a sick, bewildered humiliation. I feel life is taunting me with having over-lingered my welcome. It is time I said good-bye, before I become too sick a burden on myself and on those who love me. It will be sorrow to leave them, but not a sorrow to die. Dogs do not fear death as men do. We accept it as part of life, not as something alien and terrible which destroys life. What may come after death, who knows? I would like to believe with those of my fellow Dalmatians who are devout Mohammedans, that there is a Paradise where one is always young and full-bladdered; where all the day one dillies and dallies with an amorous multitude of houris, beautifully spotted; where jack rabbits that run fast but not too fast (like the houris) are as the sands of the desert; where each blissful hour is mealtime; where in long evenings there are a million fireplaces with logs forever burning, and one curls oneself up and blinks into the flames and nods and dreams, remembering the old brave days on earth, and the love of one's Master and Mistress.
I am afraid this is too much for even such a dog as I am to expect. But peace, at least, is certain. Peace and long rest for weary old heart and head and limbs, and eternal sleep in the earth I have loved so well. Perhaps, after all, this is best.
One last request I earnestly make. I have heard my Mistress say, "When Blemie dies we must never have another dog. I love him so much I could never love another one." Now I would ask her, for love of me, to have another. It would be a poor tribute to my memory never to have a dog again. What I would like to feel is that, having once had me in the family, now she cannot live without a dog! I have never had a narrow jealous spirit. I have always held that most dogs are good (and one cat, the black one I have permitted to share the living room rug during the evenings, whose affection I have tolerated in a kindly spirit, and in rare sentimental moods, even reciprocated a trifle). Some dogs, of course, are better than others. Dalmatians, naturally, as everyone knows, are best. So I suggest a Dalmatian as my successor. He can hardly be as well bred or as well mannered or as distinguished and handsome as I was in my prime. My Master and Mistress must not ask the impossible. But he will do his best, I am sure, and even his inevitable defects will help by comparison to keep my memory green. To him I bequeath my collar and leash and my overcoat and raincoat, made to order in 1929 at Hermes in Paris. He can never wear them with the distinction I did, walking around the Place Vendôme, or later along Park Avenue, all eyes fixed on me in admiration; but again I am sure he will do his utmost not to appear a mere gauche provincial dog. Here on the ranch, he may prove himself quite worthy of comparison, in some respects. He will, I presume, come closer to jack rabbits than I have been able to in recent years. And for all his faults, I hereby wish him the happiness I know will be his in my old home.
One last word of farewell, Dear Master and Mistress. Whenever you visit my grave, say to yourselves with regret but also with happiness in your hearts at the remembrance of my long happy life with you: "Here lies one who loved us and whom we loved." No matter how deep my sleep I shall hear you, and not all the power of death can keep my spirit from wagging a grateful tail.

The fact is that the average mans love of liberty is nine-tenths imaginary, exactly like his love of sense, justice and truth. He is not actually happy when free; he is uncomfortable, a bit alarmed, and intolerably lonely. ~ H. L. Mencken

This 'last will' of a dog, Blemie, was written in 1940 when the evils of WW2 were going strong. Thinking about peaceful days with one's faithful old Dalmatian dog would sound pretty good in contrast to what was happening back then.
I recently read a contemporary book, "The Year of Living Doggedly" by Peter Marmorek. A retired high school teacher, he and his wife got a labradoodle puppy and kept notes of their first year with him in Toronto and on a prolonged vacation in rural Gaspe, Quebec.
Another recently-read contemporary book is, "Proof of Heaven" by Eben Alexander, a neurosurgeon in Lynchburg, Virginia who was in a coma for a week (near death experience) and visited heaven at that time. I noticed that he saw dogs in heaven.

Well if they don't have Dog's in heaven, then I guess I'll just have to go somewhere else. That Rainbow bridge sounds like my kind of place, and I'm fairly sure that the 3 I have will be happy enough till I get there. that's if they don't kill me off first.

This product is completely worthless. They claim that you get 150 puffs out of each cartridge but I tested it and you get about 43. If you add up what you get you would be paying about $13 for a pack of cigarettes.

Nice! I hope Dell gets an extension too
Hornets Coach Monty Williams agreed to a four-year contract extension Saturday that will keep him with the team with the team through 2016. Before the agreement was reached, Williams had one year remaining on his existing deal that included a team option for a fourth year.
Nice! I hope Dell gets an extension too
One of the best young coaches in the NBA. He deserves it. Glad to see the Hornets recognize and lock him up. Now, on to Dell...
You don't follow my Twitter, I lead yours.
Best move of the offseason?
Excellent news. just one more FO extension to go...
Now I do voice overs. Finally!
Click here for my first voice demo!
Good for Demps to get him locked up now and not risk him during FA. Definitely an up and coming coach and it's nice to have him locked up during these crucial development years with EG, AD, ad Rivers.
This off season has been too good. I mean just wow.
Ah. The dance of the *comment redacted* people.
Majestic in it's simplicity. It invokes a desire to roll on the floor laughing in what we refer to as joked right the **** out. Watch as the Kevin Love displays no rhythm, no spirit, and no physical awareness as to the camera position.
And also invokes the confusion as...seriously what the hell is James Harden holding? Is that a Mooninite?
Great news. I hope he remains our coach for a VERY long time.
I've been waiting for this!!!! Demps, you next!
My Anthony Davis website: http://thebrow.uphero.com/
I love this team !!! I hope Dell gets an extension soon!
