Virtualize a Server with Minimal Downtime
Kyle Rankin is a director of engineering operations in the San Francisco Bay Area, the author of a number of books including DevOps Troubleshooting and The Official Ubuntu Server Book, and is a columnist for Linux Journal.
Older Linux ext2/3 filesystem
I was able to virtualize two older RedHat system using this method though I did run into ext2/3 filesystem issues. One system was an old RedHat 5.2 (circa 1998). I was booting the VM with Knoppix V6.0 live CD and then creating the partitions and ext2 filesystem. After rsync'ing files I found I couldn't boot. This turned out to be ext2 filesystem features. The Knoppix OS created an ext2 with all the latest features but the old RedHat 5.2 predated many of these features so it didn't know how to handle them.
I rebuilt the ext2 FS with options to turn off just about every feature.
mkfs -t ext2 -O none -r0 -O ^dir_index /dev/sdxx
Then I was able to rsync and complete all steps ending with a bootable RedHat 5.2 guest VM
Thanks for the great article.
Ubuntu 8 2.6.24 kernel I had
Ubuntu 8 2.6.24 kernel
I had to use "mount --bind /dev /mnt/sda1"
then chroot /mnt/sda1
then mount /proc /proc -t proc
and used mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img
Filesystem has unsupported features
After migrating an old RedHat 9 server to VMWare using this howto, I got an error saying fsck.ext3: Filesystem has unsupported features.
I've posted a description on how to solve this issue on my blog: fsck: Filesystem has unsupported features.
I hope this might be helpful for people encountering the same issue.
I ran into problems because Knoppix mounted my root partition with the
nodev option, which made the
grub-install and
mkinitrd calls fail, because the devices were not accessible. I had to change the mount-options with
mount -oremount,dev,setuid /dev/sda1.
Furthermore I had a problem because
/var is on a different partition (/dev/sda3)in my setup. I had to unmount this partition before
chroot-ing and had to (re-)mount in the
grub install issue
I'm having some issue with grub-install, mainly the fact that the system I'm virtualizing has a raid device for the hard drive. I've tried the grub install using some soft links to map the device names and the setup (hd0) command appears to complete but the virt-manager states the disk is not bootable
any suggestions
I had similar issues because
I had similar issues because my set up has a /boot partition:
/dev/sda1 -> /boot
/dev/sda2 -> /
/dev/sda3 -> (swap)
so chroot'ing into my root, /dev/sda2, won't exactly work right since /boot is not there. Here's what I did to get it to work, using manual grub instead of grub-install:
Before you chroot into anything (while in Knoppix shell):
$ grub
grub> root (hd0,0)
grub> setup (hd0)
grub> exit
The 1st line points root to my first partition (/dev/sda1)
2nd line sets it up. What this does is set up grub on the MBR of the virtual disk.
Then, to rebuild the initrd correctly, I had to do this:
$ umount /mnt/sda1
$ mount -o remount,dev /mnt/sda2
(assuming sda2 was already mounted)
This mount command helps eliminate /dev/null problems when using the mkinitrd command later.
$ mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda2/boot
(This puts the boot partition into my sda2 root mount)
Now we can chroot:
$ chroot /dev/sda2
$ ls /boot
(should see the /boot partition stuff)
I had to add these to /etc/modprobe.conf in my install (I am using VMWare server 2.0.0 RC1):
alias scsi_hostadapter mptbase
alias scsi_hostadapter1 mptscsih
Now I rebuilt initrd:
Now we do the equivalent of this:
# mv /boot/initrd-2.4.21-32.0.1.ELsmp.img /boot/initrd-2.4.21-32.0.1.ELsmp.img.bak
# mkinitrd -v /boot/initrd-2.4.21-32-0.1.ELsmp.img 2.4.21-32-0.1.ELsmp
(Notice that the orig article was missing the .img in the second line)
(Also use the -v flag to see any useful errors)
I had one last problem - when I rebooted it complained the my e2fsck was too old and keep dumping me into repair mode. My install is a real old FC2, and when I used Knoppix to create the ext3 file systems, there are "new features" that the older e2fsck didn't support. So I followed these instructions and all is good:
Good luck everyone. Thank you for a great guide!
I had a problem...
Before the second and final rsync, I wanted to test if the machines goes alive, but when I do the chroot /mnt/sda, and then
# grub-install /dev/sda
it gives:
/usr/share/grub/i386-redhat/stage1: Not found
And tried:
fdisk -l (without result)
It seems that I can't have access to /var /usr /home which are other partitions
What I tried next, was to cp the files in /mnt/sda3 (/usr), to /mnt/sda1 (/) just the files in the corresponding /usr/share/grub/i386-redhat/
And the output of that command was:
/sbin/grub-install: line 501: uniq: command not found
/dev/sda: Not found or not a block device.
any advice will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Even though
Even though the missing -H option, this is a great HOWTO, include I will be using this to migrate from one server to other and another, obviously I had never figure it out by myself... Thank you very much, And if possible, I would like to have your agreement to translate it, (and include fdisk steps) to Spanish.
rsync and hardlinks
the rsync options "-avx --numeric-ids --progress" IMHO doesn't include "-H" (hardlinks). So if a systems uses many hardlinks there will be many duplicated files.

Alabama shooting puts spotlight on tenure process
While the circumstances behind the deadly shooting at the University of Alabama-Huntsville remain unclear, the Harvard-trained neurobiologist accused in the rampage was upset about being denied tenure - the academic world's highly coveted form of job security.
The profile of Amy Bishop that is emerging suggests deep-seated emotional problems and a history of violence. But her vocal displeasure about being rejected in the period leading up to the attack has cast a spotlight on the increasingly pressure-packed quest for tenure at American colleges.
Within the academic world, there's little debate that the trials of tenure have grown more intense in recent years - largely because there are fewer opportunities to gain an academic foothold, greater expectations for scholarly output and an economic climate that is anything but rosy.
"You remember it almost like a death in the family," said John Tisdale, a journalism professor who was denied tenure at Baylor University in 2002 for reasons that he said were never fully explained.
"I know this happens to people every day, so I don't want to sound melodramatic ... It's so traumatic. Your life is turned upside down. Obviously it's a professional setback, but it's personal, too."
Decades ago, schools were hiring, and tenure was almost automatic. Now, cost-conscious colleges and universities are turning to part-time and adjunct faculty who will never get a shot at tenure. Some live like academic nomads, drifting from position to position with marginal pay or benefits.
Professors lucky enough to land tenure-track positions must endure rigorous scrutiny and, at times, an ambiguous process deciding their fate. Those who wash out wear the scarlet letter of academia. Although some fail to regain their footing, others go on to success in the classroom or the business world.
Tisdale joined Baylor University as adviser to the student newspaper in 1987 and earned his master's and Ph.D. while working full time. He was put on the tenure track in 1996. Although his reviews were good and nothing seemed out of the ordinary, Tisdale lost his bid for tenure.
The former newspaper reporter and copy editor appealed the decision, but he also started a job search almost immediately. While he could have stayed at Baylor another year, he accepted a position at Texas Christian University and is now a tenured professor and associate director of the journalism school.
"You hate to say this, but failure is a great teacher, and you learn your lesson and go forward," Tisdale said.
Bishop is accused in the attack last week that killed three fellow professors. Because of her field, she had brighter future career prospects than many other scholars rejected for tenure. According to one report, one of the victims was a professor who supported her tenure bid.
A tenure dispute being linked to violence, let alone deaths, is practically unheard of. In 1992, an associate professor who had been denied tenure at Concordia University in Montreal killed four colleagues.
It's a shock to be denied tenure "when your entire sense of self and your intellectual life is tied into your perception of yourself as an academic," said Cat Warren, a tenured associate professor of English at North Carolina State University. "It is a rigorous process, and it's difficult."

Don't buy, flaw design
Flawed Design
Best Uses
This is the fridge to avoid with any cost, unless you want to get it replaced fast. I have the fridge for less than 2 years, the first year was OK, but then suddenly started to leak water into the veggie drawers. Do a search on the web, lot of people with this problem, lot of people complained to Samsung and no resolution. I chatted with Samsung yesterday and they are NOT aware of any problems with this fridge. Really? How come nobody sues them? They asked me to fill a service request and probably pay money to something that can not be fixed. How come consumer reports don't do anything about this problem, protecting the customers from this fraud company?

More than six months

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This was purchased to replace a (still working)20+ year old GE refrigerator. Within 3 months BOTH freezer doors cracked at the stress points which are plastic.
Replaced once by Samsung and again soon after the same stress fractures occurred. After much hassle with Samsung customer service my door was replaced again. Yes, within another month the same issue. AND the bottom, plastic portion of the refrigerator doors are also now cracking and breaking.
I would never recommend another Samsung item for their poor design and more importantly the fact that Samsung does not stand behind their product.

Never again

After 2 1/2 years the refrigerator started leaking water like everyone else has experienced. The cooling coils were froze solid. A call to Samsung was no help and the are fully aware of this issue. Three hundred dollars latter for repair and a month passing same thing happened. Let it thaw and turned temperature up two degrees. Crossing fingers at this point. What a mess, never going to buy any other Samsung product.

National League Preview from The Sports Network
Wednesday, June 18 (All times Eastern)
Philadelphia Phillies (31-38) at Atlanta Braves (36-34), 12:10 p.m.
Probable Starting Pitchers: Philadelphia - Roberto Hernandez (2-5, 4.26) Atlanta - Aaron Harang (5-5, 3.20)
(SportsNetwork.com) - The Philadelphia Phillies have been gathering some wins lately and are in line for a sweep of the NL East-rival Atlanta Braves when the two clubs conclude a three-game series Wednesday at Turner Field.
The Phillies rallied for a 6-1 win in 13 innings Monday night, then took the series with Tuesday's 5-2 victory behind another home run from Ryan Howard and solid pitching by Kyle Kendrick. Howard set the tone early with a two-run homer in the first inning and has gone deep in back-to-back games.
"We're giving ourselves opportunities to win," said Howard. "Just collectively as a team. We've played better. We've had clutch hitting. Guys are coming in and stepping up in big situations."
Howard has 46 career homers against the Braves and helped Kendrick, who limited Atlanta to a pair of runs in seven innings. He allowed six hits, struck out six and walked only one batter.
Cesar Hernandez went 2-for-4 with an RBI and Domonic Brown added a run-scoring hit for the Phillies, who pounded out 10 hits and won for the sixth time in the last eight tries. Jimmy Rollins extended his hitting streak to 12 games with a leadoff double.
Philadelphia's bullpen continued its June rise, as Jake Diekman threw a scoreless eighth inning and closer Jonathan Papelbon got his 16th save in the ninth. Since June 3, Philadelphia's bullpen ranks first in the majors in ERA, opponent OBP, OPS, WHIP and strikeout/walk ratio.
After this series in Atlanta, the Phillies will visit St. Louis for four games at Busch Stadium. The Phils are five games behind Washington for the division lead, while the Braves and Marlins are tied for second at a half-game behind.
Meanwhile, the Phillies have to be disappointed with how things have turned out with Roberto Hernandez this season and hope he can bounce back Wednesday against the Braves. Hernandez is just 2-5 with a 4.26 earned run average and winless in his last eight trips to the hill (0-4).
Hernandez suffered his third straight loss in last Friday's 2-1 setback to the Chicago Cubs and yielded both runs across 5 2/3 innings. The right-hander has given up at least two runs in each of his previous five starts (14 total).
In two career starts against Atlanta, Hernandez is 1-0 with a 2.77 ERA.
Atlanta has lost nine of its last 14 games and is 8-13 since May 26. In Tuesday's loss to the Phillies, Jason Heyward had two hits and an RBI, and has reached base safely via hit or walk in 33 of his last 36 games.
The Braves totaled six hits and made two errors.
"We're fighting right now to kind of get some stuff going and get that spark going," said Braves third baseman Chris Johnson, who doubled and scored a run. "We had a couple of opportunities. Nothing really big. Their guy did a good job keeping us off balance offensively."
Ervin Santana struggled on the mound and labored through six innings, charged with four runs -- three earned -- and eight hits with five K's and three walks. Santana entered with a 1-0 record and 0.69 ERA in two career starts against the Phils.
Braves outfielder Justin Upton left the game in the bottom of the sixth inning after experiencing dizziness and will be re-evaluated Wednesday. He said he felt better afterward and is hitting .278 with 14 home runs and 37 RBI.
"He battled through it the first couple of innings. It just kept getting worse. So, we'll check him tomorrow," Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez said.
Jordan Schafer replaced Upton in left field to begin the seventh.
Braves slugger Evan Gattis rested Tuesday and is riding a 16-game hitting streak. He is batting .406 during the run and has 15 homers and 36 RBI this season. Gattis is hitting .391 (27-for-69) with seven home runs and 19 RBI since May 19 (19 games).
The Braves will start an 11-game road trip Thursday against Washington, Houston and Philadelphia.
Aaron Harang will try to win consecutive starts for the first time in two months when he takes the mound for Atlanta Wednesday. Harang last recorded back-to-back wins April 13 and 18 for a 3-1 start to the season.
Harang is now 5-5 with a 3.20 earned run average and halted a five-start winless drought (0-2) in last Friday's 4-3 win over the LA Angels, as he fired six innings of one-run, four-hit ball. It was the right-hander's first win since May 11 against the Cubs.
Harang is 3-2 in eight home starts and 4-2 with a 4.85 ERA in 13 career games (12 starts) against the Phillies.
The Phillies lost two of three home meetings with the Braves in mid-April.

ANAHEIM – This was the type of game the scouts remember, the kind that reverberates through a clubhouse full of people that were out there baking in the heat of an early-summer Sunday.
Garrett Richards did not get the W. What he gave the Angels was a PL. While popups were disappearing into the sun's corona before they plunged on panicky infielders, and while Dodgers were holding court on every base, Richards prevented the Angels from losing.
Richards left the game with two outs in the seventh and a runner on second. The Angels and Dodgers were tied, 3-3. Scott Downs came in to retire Andre Ethier, and the Angels wound up winning, 5-3.
They have lost only one series since May 20 and they are 34-19 since April 28, the day Mike Trout came up to show them how to dance to the music.
Richards is 2-0 with a 1.63 ERA in four starts, all of which the Angels have won.
"I've really worked on keeping my composure," Richards said. "We're human beings, and emotions are going to come into play, but sometimes you just have to battle."
The Dodgers were 1 for 8 with runners in scoring position against Richards. Four leadoff men got on base and only one of them scored. James Loney ended the third with a ground double play that Alberto Callaspo started, and Bobby Abreu did the same in the fifth, to Howie Kendrick.
Juan Rivera led off the sixth with a double and Loney, the next hitter, sent a bullet into Richards' glove — 2 inches left or right and Richards would have been trailing or bleeding. And it wasn't a matter of striking his way out of trouble. Richards struck out the first two Dodgers he faced and just three thereafter.
"I thought I flipped a couple of curveballs in there and my sinker was good," Richards said. "I thought I threw some good sliders but they weren't swinging at them. In the first inning (a Dodgers run on three consecutive hits) I threw some good pitches but they got some hand grenades. That's part of the game."
"The biggest thing he did was keep runners close," pitching coach Mike Butcher said. "He was good at holding Dee Gordon on (in the seventh, before ending his day by striking out Elian Herrera). I thought he threw great today. As long as he keeps the ball down and pounds the zone, he's going to be tough."
And yet it might mean just another boarding pass to Salt Lake City, with Jerome Williams making his way back from the disabled list.
It has happened before.
"Jered Weaver was....I want to say 4-0 with a 1.3 ERA or something like that and they sent him back," Richards said.
Very good. Weaver was 4-0, 1.37 after a victory over Kansas City on June 13, 2006. When reigning Cy Young Award winner Bartolo Colon came off the DL, Weaver was sent back to the Beehive State, although he returned on July 3 and eventually got to 9-0.
"Sometimes you just have too many guys,' Richards said. 'I'm just trying to do whatever I can with the opportunity they've given me."

[DIY] Custom Iphone Car Mount + AV output
I had a Ram Mount for my Iphone 3G and really enjoyed using it. While Proclip had a fancier looking solution, it did not allow you to customize the mounting the way Ram Mount lets you (literally hundreds of different combination). But I really liked how Proclip had mounts that let you just slide your phone in and out. When I purchased my iPhone 4 I wanted to buy a mount that also had a passthrough cable. Unfortunately they don't make one for the iPhone 4 + OEM bumper, so I was left with the only solution available = Making my own
Parts List
Iphone 4 w OEM bumper holder
Ram Mount iPhone 4 Holder ( you can save money by buying the individual parts from their parts list)
TRUE 30 pin Passthrough Cable ( Novapcs on Ebay )
Apple Composite A/V Cable
Farenheit 7" Flush Mount LCD
Sandpaper, Files, Primer, Spray Paint
Tools Needed
Black Radiator Fix epoxy plastic
3m Automix Plastic Epoxy
Bond Glazing putty
Masking Tape
Dremel Tool with Fiberglass cutoff wheels
Step 1 Creating Custom Mount
First I started with my own creation Proclip dock + ram mount rubber ball to allow me to use all of the Ram Mount options
Carefully drilled and screwed in 4 screws + Nuts
Using A dremeled I removed all the extra screw/nut/Labeling that was on the Ram Mount Using a Fiberglass Dremel Cutoff Wheel
Step 2: Molding 30 pin adapter to Holder
In order to avoid having to plug in a cable in and out it would need to be molded in and glued to the adapter. After researching it turns out using a pliable epoxy would be better to start off with vs a liquid epoxy like JB weld. The radiator stuff looks like this
Best method I found was
1) Put a little bit of Vasoline on the mount and outside of iPhone bumper first so nothing sticks
2) slide iphone down into bumper all the way
3) Using a dremel you will probably have to sand off some plastic so that the extra large AV plug fits into the iphone with the Bumper on it. No need to be neat, this will all be covered up
4) Once the AV Plug fits plug it into the iphone.
5) Mix the putty and then you will have only a few minutes to mold it around the iphone/holder/cable
6) Let it dry for a bit, but before it hardens you can cut off any extra material before it fully hardens
7) Mix the 3M automix and apply. You will probably want to do 3+ layers to fill in all the depressions. Let it dry, sand till flat, repeat until it looks good
8) Do the same thing for the mount holes, this takes one layer and pretty easy to sand to make it look better
9) Once you get your General shape use spot putty for the tiny holes
10) Sand, and mas off areas you don't want to paint ( bad idea to use nurses tape, it leaves a residue, I ran out of blue painters tape)
11) Paint black.
12) Find how to mount it and then plug in your av cable to your monitor
From this picture you can see I used a zip tie to get the cable out of the way + still allow the mount to rotate, and I cut away some material in my dash to allow the cable to route behind my center console
13) I really Recommend Paying for GPS Drive as a pretty Nice way to use the secondary 7" screen ( besides playing videos, etc)
Questions are welcomed !

This is very creative, and I can't believe this didn't generate a lot of responses. To be fair, you were so descriptive that questions related to the actual implementation of the solution are hard to fathom, but I do have a couple. First, why not go with a bolt in mount?
Every suction cup mount I've ever owned has failed me within 6 months. Maybe it's the shape of my 06 Subaru Impreza's dash, but I can't get anything to stay. I'm figuring on getting a MiPro 450 + some kind of adapter to get it to mount to a Pro-Fit dash mount. It'll cover up the vent as a plus so I don't have to see the missing slats from the time I spazzed on a vent mount. Maybe I am too rough on my cell phone mounts or my unwilingness to spend $1000 of suspension is making the ride too rough, I don't know. I just know this is a problem for me and definitely shouldn't be.
Anyway, how is it working out? Still that way to this day? Let us know, and great job! Have a good one. Will subscribe.

I need a doc and this seems like the best option. Ordering the stuff now to try it out. is it still holding up? And once you have the bottom part made and sanded how do you attach it to the holder before painting? Just epoxy? Thanks!

1) It's bolted directly to my dash
I have solid motor mounts and coilovers in my car that causes a lot of vibration, so I needed something that was completely solid. In addition, I can hold on to the mount and use my phone without looking (pandora, etc) which is the reason I can't stand anything that clips, suction cup, etc.
2) I moved the mount back closer to the steering wheel (you can see the old mounting holes in the previous picture) . It makes the dash look cleaner, especially when I leave just the part that is bolted on (these pics are from earlier/different interior parts/ not the finished product)
Just the bottom mount
Eventually I will fill the unused holes in (I already have the colored colored plastic filler)
3) I glued the bottom part to the proclip using a) crazy glue for immediate bonding b) epoxy for added strength
4) Still holding up strong. I love that I can walk in my car, drop my phone in and immediately have it charge/connect to my car.

Two Kent State Grapplers Win University TitlesPosted Jun. 3, 2012
AKRON – Kent State's Dustin Kilgore (Berea, Ohio) and Ian Miller (Oak Harbor, Ohio) each won individual titles at the ASICS University Nationals Sunday at the University of Akron's Field House, while competing for the Golden Pride Wrestling Club. Both wrestlers went 5-0 in the two-day freestyle competition and each won their championship matches in convincing fashion.
"There was only one other team (Minnesota) with two champions," Jim Andrassy said. "And it's the first time we've ever had someone win this event."
Competing in the 96-kilogram bracket, Kilgore tallied two first period pins, including one in the semifinals over Adam Fager that took only 57 seconds. He won each of his other three matches in two periods with a combined score of 15-2. In his final bout, Kilgore defeated Matt Wilps 2-0, 6-1, to earn his fourth freestyle tournament crown in the last eight months.
"I don't know if anyone touched Dustin's legs the whole tournament," Andrassy said. "He was very controlled, his defense has gotten tremendously better and when he shot, he scored. He's gotten a lot stronger and he looks like monster."
n the 51-member, 70-kilogram bracket, Miller was nearly as dominant as Kilgore, dropping just one period in five matches. In his final match, he knocked off Frank Hickman 4-1, 6-0. Miller posted three shutouts on the weekend, including a 2-0, 3-0 blanking of Bryce Busler in the semifinals.
"I think Ian's even better in freestyle than folksyle, because he's so explosive on his feet," Andrassy said. 'He hit a couple 3-point takedowns and a 4-pointer, which is really hard to do. He really wowed the crowd and some people thought he made a good case for Outstanding Wrestler."
The Golden Pride Wrestling Club also got a fifth place on Friday from Alfredo Gray (Wadsworth, Ohio) in the Greco-Roman competition.
Other strong performances in freestyle came from Kyle Bauer (Wheeling, W. Va.), who reached the quarterfinals at 63 KG and Stevie Mitcheff (Lorain, Ohio), who went 3-2 at 60 KG.
"Kyle's really starting to come into his own," Andrassy said. And there were a lot of bright spots from our other young guys. After this weekend, I'm really excited to see where we'll be as a team next season.
Clay Wenger (Wadsworth, Ohio), Sam Wheeler (Copley, Ohio) and Caleb Marsh (Marysville, Ohio) each won a pair of matches on the weekend.

April 1 - 30, 2015
A mixed media look at the buildings and streets of Portsmouth
During the month of April, Kennedy Gallery will present the work of local photographer Suzie Goodwin. Fascinated with urban culture, architecture and discarded artifacts, Goodwin prints her images on an aluminum substrate and adds subtle layers of paint and texture to give each image an old world feeling with a contemporary look.
Constantly pushing the boundaries of her medium and experimenting with new materials and techniques, Goodwin will certainly have some creative surprises for viewers of this show. Goodwin states, "To me it's never about the camera but about seeing. Often I see an image in my head long before I see it in the lens...sometimes it's traditional...sometimes I wake up, take one look and say "What was I thinking?' But it moves me and I love the process.
After all, isn't life more about the journey than the destination?" She continues, saying "Change is constant in life and mine is no exception. Several years ago I was diagnosed with early onset Parkinson's disease. It brings with it new challenges. So now my work will not only satisfy the desire I feel to create but it also serve as a tool to help me battle my struggles. I am happiest behind the lens...so as an artist, I will continue for as long as I can lift a camera to my eye."
In honor of April being National Parkinson's Awareness Month and to aid all person's struggling with Parkinson's disease, a portion of the proceeds from sales in this show will be donated to Parkinson's research.
Please join us for an opening reception to meet Suzie and discuss her work on Friday, April 3 from 5-8 pm in conjunction with the monthly Art Round Town Gallery Walk.

Good news on the Health Care For All Front! On Thursday, January 19, 2012, the California Senate Appropriations Committee approved the California Universal Health Care Act.
Senate Bill 810 guarantees all Californians comprehensive, universal health care while reducing the state's ballooning health care costs and improving the quality of care and delivery of health services statewide.
Here's audio of an interview with Mark Leno, about his bill. Mark Leno is a true hero!
In the interview Mark Leno explains that health care premiums are going up five times faster than inflation, and the number of employers providing benefits has been going down. 12 million Californians went without health care coverage last year.
Notice from the press release from PNHP (linked above) the number of co-sponsors and supporters of the bill representing over 2 million people!
SB 810 is sponsored and supported by a broad coalition of patients, nurses, doctors, teachers and school employees, small businesses, faith community members, retirees, local governments and school districts. These groups represent more than 2 million Californians. The bill is co-sponsored by the California Nurses Association, Health Care for All California, California One Care, California School Employees Association, Physicians for a National Health Program-California, Single Payer Now, Campaign for a Healthy California, California Federation of Teachers, California Alliance of Retired Americans, Amnesty International, League of Women Voters, California Council of Churches, Progressive Democrats of America, California Consumer Federation, National Organization for Women-California, Vision y Compromiso, Wellstone Democratic Renewal Club, Dolores Huerta Foundation, California Health Professional Student Alliance and Courage Campaign.
For folks that don't remember, the California State Legislature put the bill on Arnold Schwarzenegger's desk, but "Governor Cheatinator" vetoed it twice. Had he not vetoed that bill, the first time, thousands of Californians who needlessly died due to inadequate health care would be alive today. Usually people don't put it in those terms, because they're afraid to point out the direct connection between the veto pen and the resulting tombstones.
One additional point is that various studies have predicted actual savings from this very bill, see for example the Lewin Group study which projected that "Aggregate savings to state and local governments from 2006 to 2015 would be about $43.8 billion". In addition, "Families with incomes under $150,000 in annual income would, on average, see savings ranging from $600 to $3600 per family under the program in 2006".
Our "system" doesn't work. This system would work much better. Pretty simple, really. If not for the ability of big money to spread propaganda and buy politicians.
The California Chamber of Commerce has already fired up the propaganda-regurgitating machinery to oppose this bill (or any other bill that would make for a healthier California).
In other countries it doesn't work that way -- business leaders are less committed to broken ideology.
Big Three Auto Joint Letter on Publicly Funded Health Care (in Canada)
The public health care system significantly reduces total labour costs for automobile manufacturing firms, compared to the cost of equivalent private insurance services purchased by U.S.-based automakers; these health insurance savings can amount to several dollars per hour of labour worked. Publicly funded health care thus accounts for a significant portion of Canada's overall labour cost advantage in auto assembly, versus the U.S., which in turn has been a significant factor in maintaining and attracting new auto investment to Canada.
We need smarter business leaders in this country! (again I am reminded of Jared Diamond's point that Civilizations Collapse when leaders are out of touch with the people, out of touch with the facts, and focus on their short term gain)

text: No, this is ridiculous. If you want to get around the park without physical effort or are incapable for whatever reason then a wheel chair or ECV is plenty good. If the trouble is being seated, then what do you do on the rides? As others have mentioned this would be dangerous. Also they can't require proof of a disability, so I see this being abused and a huge amount of people choosing to use a Segway. Because unlike a boring Wheelchair thing Segways are fun.

Cool Step Stools & Storage Boxes By The Stately Step Company
2 Recommendations
CraigSteven's recommendation
Quality was fantastic...very unique idea, at least 13 diferent designs on website. Perfect for my kids in the bathromm and for the kitchen. Not your standard plastic step stool that you want to hide. Constructed of wood and quality hardware. Too nice to stand on!! I bought one for my office for storage ( fits 8 1/2 x 11 paper as well as well as my magazines). Really adds a nice touch to a room.
Dana1's recommendation
What a great idea! I bought one for a Bridal shower and it was a big hit. Really unique and I love the fact that it can be used for storage.

We've all been waiting for what feels like ETERNITY to see Kim Kardashian's post-baby body, but she's keeping us all in suspense with yet another teasing video, this time on Keek.
Kim, who gave birth to North West in June, made her first public appearance since having her baby via video link on her mum's chat show last week.
The video was only a few seconds long and also only showed the star's face.
And now she's continued to tease us with a mega-short Keek video which shows her cheekily poking out her tongue before smiling for the camera.
Kim looks happy in the short video which shows her with her standard full-face of make-up, and it seems that the reality TV star is in no hurry to make a massive return to the spotlight now she's a mum.
[Kourtney and Kim Kardashian 'at war' over motherhood?!]
[Kim Kardashian and Kanye West 'headed for disaster'?]
In the video which aired on Kris Jenner's chat show, Kim said: "Hey mom, I just wanted to say congratulations on your new show. I'm sorry I couldn't be there in person, but I'm just loving life a little bit too much at home right now."
"But I watch you every single day and you are so amazing. You really are born to do this. I just want to say I love you and have an amazing show."
However, sources have suggested that the reason for Kim's absence from the spotlight is down to her working hard to shift the baby weight.
A source told heat: "Kim has been working really hard to lose the baby weight. She's already lost over a stone, which is incredible, but she's not satisfied. Kim doesn't want anyone to see her body until she looks perfect."
Well, from the glimpses we've seen we reckon she looks great. Hurry up and get back out there, Kimmy!

|NFL Week 6 Picks: Texans at Bengals Spread Odds, Trends & Injuries
|Written by Anthony Rome
|Sunday, 18 October 2009 03:05
Texans at Bengals Pick
The red-hot Cincinnati Bengals will host the Houston Texans at Paul Brown Stadium on Sunday at 1:00PM ET.
The Texans continued their trend of following one good week with one bad as they fell to the Cardinals 28-21 in Week 4. Matt Schaub threw for 302 yards and two touchdowns, while Andre Johnson caught eight passes for 101 yards and two scores. Houston failed to cover as 6-point underdogs.
The Bengals shocked many pundits with their 17-14 win over the Ravens in Baltimore last Sunday. Cedric Benson rushed for 120 yards and a touchdown on 27 carries, while Carson Palmer threw for 271 yards with one touchdown and a pick. The Bengals easily covered the spread as a 9-point underdog.
Oddsmakers from online sports book Sportsbook.com have made the Bengals 5-point favorites over the Texans on Sunday. The over/under total for this game has been set at 45 points.
If there's anything bettors can rely on when it comes to the NFL it's to expect the unexpected. The Bengals are on fire right now and the general public is going to start riding them hard.
But we caution getting too high on the Bengals too early. Yes, they're a solid team now that Palmer is back under center, Benson has found new life and the defense is playing extremely well. But they're due for a letdown after an emotional game last week in Baltimore and they might be caught napping this week with Houston in town.
The Texans have enough offensive firepower to match wits with any team in the NFL. But the defense has struggled to stop the run and the offense is having a tough time keeping up to how many points the defense is allowing.
We think Houston will settle for a conservative game plan this week defensively and allow its offense to try to win the game through the air. We don't necessarily think that the Texans will win, but if we're right and Cincinnati is due for a letdown, Houston should cover.
Take the points and the under, as bad weather could affect things in Cincinnati on Sunday.
Our NFL Week 6 Free Pick for this matchup is: HOUSTON TEXANS +5 and UNDER 45.
Texans at Bengals Current Odds
211 Houston Texans +5 Over 45
Houston is 8-4 ATS in its last 12 games

Fake and old model watches sold over the internet.
Fake watches of some of our brands have begun to enter the market place. Of late, some dubious web sellers, mainly from Asia are stating that they are authorised retailers when they are not.
Clients have experienced the following problems/issues after purchasing these watches, believing they were receiving a "good deal": Customers have received
- Old models that haven't been in production for years
- Watches that have been either used or on display somewhere for a long time
- Fake watches (please ask us before buying a new or used watch from someone other than an authorized retailer and we will check the serial No of the watch on offer!)
- Problems with customs as these sellers try to reduce their prices by excluding the Australian GST
- No warranty in Australia, even if the warranty card is stamped by an authorised retailer from another region
Here are the names of some sellers, who are not authorised by any of our brands and as such their watches are not covered by warranty: redfingerprint.com, watch2000.com, gnomon.com, bodying.com, sinnwatches.com (this website is NOT the official Sinn website!)
If you are unsure, please check the home page of the original brand in Germany/Switzerland, i.e. www.sinn.de, if you wish to double check information about authorised retailers in your area or call us for more information!

Springtime Defrosting
January 16, 2013
This Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC) image provides a springtime view of defrosting processes on a surface that in summer would be a dark patch of sand. In winter, the sand is covered by frost (carbon dioxide and possibly water ice, as well). In spring, the sand develops a spotted pattern as the frosts sublime away. The sand patch is part of a dune field in Jeans Crater, located in the south polar region near 69.8°S, 206.6°W. The picture covers an area 3 km (1.9 mi) wide; sunlight illuminates the scene from the upper left. MGS MOC Release No. MOC2-624, 2 February 2004

Miami advances to Frozen Four final
Updated: April 10, 2009, 2:51 AM ETAssociated Press
WASHINGTON -- Where's Bemidji? That's so yesterday.
Here's the latest question from the Frozen Four: Where's Miami?
Well, when it comes to hockey, it's in the Midwest.
"It certainly is not in Florida," Miami coach Enrico Blasi said. "I sure hope everybody's enjoying this back in Oxford, Ohio."
A Miami school will play for an NCAA title, and it's not the Hurricanes from down South. The RedHawks, in the first national semifinal game played by any sports team in the university's ...

Rated 5 out of 5�by 8 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5�by Charliep Best binoculars I have ever had for watching college football I have 3 pair of Nikon wide angle 7x35 9.3 binoculars that I use for college football. I have 3 pair because I frequently take business guests to games. However, this time I just plain forgot to bring a pair to the LSU - Alabama football game. I went to dick's and they had the same pair I had at home. However, the salesman recommended the 8x42 instead. The cost difference was no factor. I went to the game and honestly these were the best binoculars I have ever used for a sporting event. Outstanding and easy to use despite being a little heavier than I was used to. Truthfully, I absolutely love them. They are now my personal pair thanks to knowledgeable Dick's employee November 19, 2013

BJP's PM candidate Narendra Modi's arch rival and Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, CPM's Brinda Karat, Janata Dal (United) chief Sharad Yadav and Samajwadi Party's Jaya Bachchan plan to campaign in favour of the 'Third Front' in Gujarat, sources said here today.
"Nitish Kumar is likely to campaign in Gujarat after April 15. We are finalising the programme with him," Janata Dal (United) Gujarat vice-president Govind Jadav said.
"After seat-sharing negotiations are finalised with five parties who are part of the 'Third Front' in Gujarat, we will tell Nitish Kumar about the programme venue and schedule," Jadav said.
"As Nitish Kumar is also in charge of Bihar's Madhepura constituency, he is busy campaigning there but he can definitely come to Gujarat once. Sharad Yadav will definitely come after April 15 and hold an election rally in South Gujarat's Surat or Bharuch districts," he said.
Samajwadi Party informed today that its Rajya Sabha member Jaya Bachchan would also campaign in Gujarat.
"Jaya Bachchan will come to Gujarat, while other senior party leaders like Azam Khan and Mulayam Singh are also likely to come," Samajwadi Party's Gujarat president Surendra Yadav said.
CPM's Gujarat general secratary Arun Mehta said, "Brinda Karat will come to the state and challenge Modi's claims of development".
Janata Dal (United), Samajwadi Party (SP) and the Left parties formed a 'Progressive Forum' as well as declared that they would contest 11 Lok Sabha seats from Gujarat.

C.D. is a six year old from Invermere. He likes things starting with the letter "s" - school, sweets (he would say candy but that doesn't start with s), Star Wars and snow. Here's what his Sunday at the Fairmont Hot Springs Resort Ski Area looked like...
1. We woke up early on Sunday and 15-20cm of powder had fallen in town. Yahoo! We wolfed down breakfast and then rushed down for first-ish chair.
2. There is powder everywhere - let's hit it!
3. Sometimes though you end up hitting things you didn't plan to... Like trees ;)
4. Ski Area Manager, Peter, always rips the mountain... He has a really tough job!
5. Lunch is always a highlight of the day. The awesome Breakfast Wrap from the cafe was almost as good as the snow.
6. After lunch, it was time to play in Aquafina SnowPlanet.
7. The new tunnels are really cool!
8. At the end of the day we bumped in to friends on the mountain. The best way to end the day.
There's a mountain of soft snow at Fairmont Hot Springs Resort! Right now, we're enjoying the best skiing and riding of the season [2]. There's more snow coming [3] too. See you on the chairlift!

Chang stuns Stosur at Japan Open
OSAKA, Japan (AP)
Chang Kai-chen of Taiwan beat top-seeded Sam Stosur of Australia 6-4, 4-6, 7-6 (3) on Saturday to advance to the final of the Japan Open.
NET PLAYFOXSports.com serves up the latest from the tennis world:
The 134th-ranked Chang broke Stosur twice in the opening set. She eliminated three seeded players on the way to her first career WTA Tour final.
The 21-year-old Chang will face Britain's Heather Watson on Sunday after she defeated local favorite Misaki Doi of Japan 7-6 (2), 7-5 in the other semifinal.
Watson broke Doi four times in the second set to make up for losing her own serve three times. The 20-year-old Watson also will be appearing in her first career WTA final - just three weeks after Laura Robson became the first British woman in 22 years to reach a title match.

3. Three Days in September'on Showtime
Thanks to newsreel footage outside and video cameras within, we lived frame by frame through the siege of a Russian schoolhouse in which 30 Chechen terrorists held 1,200 children, parents, and teachers hostage with machine guns. We, too, weren't permitted food, water, or the bathroom. We, too, ate flowers and drank urine. Then happy triggers on both sides opened fire, leaving 331 dead hostages, among them 176 kids.

I've tried using Calibre for this matter but it doesn't seem to be very clear (maybe it's just me). I tend to get dizzy with so many options.
Anyone had better results with any of these? What options are you giving Calibre?

What can you can get from Satellite Internet?
Did you know that in addition to satellite TV, there is also the option of satellite Internet? There seems to be a variety of ways to connect to the Internet. It's now at the point where no matter where you are, you can check your email, surf the web or receive live news updates. You can enable Internet access on your cell phone and lay NFL video with an Internet connection. You can have Internet access in a hotel room and watch all of your favorite TV shows online. As a matter of fact, Satellite Internet can connect even in very remote locations, where phone or cable setups are not possible. Furthermore, this is not dial up service speed, but high-speed Internet, comparable with DSL or cable.
How does satellite Internet work? A satellite floats in what is called geostationary orbit and communicates with a satellite dish setup on the owner's home property. How strong is this communication? Users can literally travel by boat or RV unit and still enjoy a stable Internet connection. Unlike cable or DSL, satellite Internet reaches about 99% of all zip codes in America. The estimates for telephone companies, DSL providers or cable providers are no where near the same total percentage. If you live in a remote area there's a likely chance that dial up Internet will be your only option. How much does satellite Internet cost? In the old days, satellite Internet did exist but was never a serious option because of the high costs of a subscription. If you asked about satellite Internet pricing a few years ago you have gotten a quote of about two thousand dollars just for installation. However, things have changed in recent times and technology has drastically improved. In addition to being more accessible than its competition, satellite Internet also offers some other advantages.
Satellite Internet allows people to keep both their phone line and Internet connection. What makes satellite Internet work is a satellite connection. Though a special modem may be used, one is not using a traditional modem and telephone line connection. With the advent of cellular communication and satellite technology, some residents are canceling their home phone lines altogether.
