William John Wilgus (1865-1949) was a civil engineer who worked for the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad. By 1899 he was the chief engineer for construction and maintenance of way and in 1903 became vice-president in charge of construction. During those years he supervised the planning and construction of Buffalo Union Station, the Weehawken (N.J.) Terminal and the modern Grand Central Station. In 1907 Wilgus opened his own consulting practice and advised railroad companies on construction and improvement projects for states and municipalities including several concerned with the improvement of passenger and freight transportation in the New York Metropolitan area. During World War I he directed transportation for the Allied Expeditionary Forces in France. After his retirement from private practice in 1930, he devoted much of his time to writing and research on military and civilian transportation issues while working in the private sector. Collection consists of records that document Wilgus' professional activities as a civil engineer. New York Central and Hudson River Railroad papers, 1895-1931, include correspondence; research notes, articles and pictures, engineering reports, minutes, legal papers, photographs and other materials relating to the new Grand Central Station and electrification of the suburban lines leading into it, and the rehabilitation and expansion of the railroad's other lines. American Expeditionary Forces records, 1915-1933, contain correspondence, writings and translations by Wilgus, writings by others, and source materials concerning military transportation during World War I. Private consulting practice records, 1908-1930, of his consulting firm in New York City consist of materials about New York transportation and major railroad projects and of general client files.

In our environment we have 5 production management groups (3 for "core" monitoring, 1 for application monitoring and one for connecting to our network monitoring system). Many times I want to be able to quickly run some cmdlet across all of these management groups to do things like the following:
Since I'm also too lazy to be bothered with always having to run the Operations Manager command shell shortcut and then run "New-ManagementGroupConnection" 4 times (I get one connection for free on start-up and have to kick up the others) I decided to add a couple things to my PowerShell profile to simplify this:
Note: For those that may not be familiar with PowerShell profiles check out the about_profiles topic online or by running "get-help about_profiles | more" within PowerShell.
If you want to do this yourself do the following:
So now that you've got a PowerShell session setup with active connections multiple management groups, you do the following to run one or more cmdlets or scripts against those connections: # Move to the root of the Monitoring:\ PSDrive cd monitoring:\
# Use get-childitem to loop through each connection and run a cmdlet against each connection. Pass into the cmdlet the PathName from the connection item get-childitem | foreach-object{<OPSMGR_CMDLET_NAME> <PARAMETERS> $_.PathName }
The following example will loop through each connection and get the management pack object for "Microsoft.SystemCenter.2007" (aka "System Center Core Monitoring" or the OpsMgr MP): get-childitem | foreach-object{Get-ManagementPack -Name Microsoft.SystemCenter.2007 -Path $_.PathName }
I hope that some of you find this as useful as I have and that these tricks save you some time down the road.
Great article! I wrote a post on the same subject, but ended up with one shortcut for each MG.. this seams smoother!

At this point, we probably all know we should be drinking more
water. What's standing in your way? For many of us, it can be as
simple as a lack of access to fresher, great-tasting water, quickly
and easily. This is why so many of us pay for bottled water - out
of sheer convenience. What if there were a better way? We like to
think there is.
Bottled Water Taste, Tap
Water Convenience
It really is the best of both worlds when you sign up for Culligan'sBottled Water. Not unlike our Salt Delivery Service we covered last week, bottled water
delivery makes accessing fresher, better-tasting water in your home
Why Bottled Water
The answer really is: Why not? Bottled water delivery fits into
your schedule as easily as it fits into your home. If you've been
looking for ways to drink more water, look no further, since our
bottled water cooler set up and delivery brings you everything you
need, right when you need it, enabling you to reap the
Want fresher, great-tasting water at your place of business? You
can choose to skip the bottle entirely and have a bottle-free
cooler installed - these plug directly into your water line, so
there's no bottle necessary, no delivery, and only periodic
maintenance to make sure your cooler and filters are working
Schedule your first delivery so you can drink up -
Between grocery store trips, work, soccer practices, school, and
those errands you just have to do before your friend's birthday,
it's no surprise we wonder where all the time in our day goes.
Notice how "thinking about your water softener" or "remembering
to pick up water softener salt" didn't make the list? We did too,
and we want it to stay that way. We've offered Salt Delivery Service to our customers as a way to help
cut down on all those little nagging things we sometimes forget to
We also know, with an investment as large as your water
softener, you really don't want to leave it up to sometimes,
occasionally remembering to replace the salt. To get the very best
in terms of performance and longevity from your water softener or
filtering system, it's important to be on top of regular salt
refills and maintenance. It just makes sense that we'd bring both
the salt and the maintenance to you, on a schedule that works for
you, and your water softener.
Salt Delivery
For any kind of water softener that uses salt, we've got a salt
delivery solution. Besides the added convenience of replacement
salt that comes to your door, right when you need it, there are
additional benefits of using a salt delivery service for your water
softening system:
So sign up with your local Culligan Man to start salt delivery today, or learn
more about the program if you have any questions - we're happy to
Free water testing from Culligan can reveal a lot about what's
going on with your water. The stuff that comes out of our taps each
and every day is maybe something we take for granted - how often do
we stop to think about it, or maybe more importantly, what's in
The answers may surprise you, as many people discover when they
sign up for a free water test from their local Culligan
What is Free Water
Culligan offers basic water testing that's complimentary and
usually as simple as scheduling a time for your Culligan Man to
visit your home. Once there, he or she will take a sample from your
tap and test it right in your kitchen. They'll be ready to discuss
the results with you and whether it makes sense to treat any common
water problems that may be in your supply.
Our basic water test makes it easy to identify some of the more
common problems homeowners experience with their water, and how to
treat any problems that do come back from the test. The best part?
It usually only takes about 10 minutes from start to finish. You
can also learn moreabout the water in your area to see what you might expect
from the test.
What Results Does a Water
Test Provide?
The basic, free version of our water test can identify water's
pH levels, and whether you have dissolved solids and minerals
present in your water that may be making it look, taste, or smell
Your Culligan Man can also conduct a standard, EPA certified
test to identify a greater variety of minerals like:
There is an additional charge for this type of comprehensive
water analysis, and you can check with your local Culligan Man for pricing to give you
an even more complete picture of what's in your water.
What is Laboratory Water
An expansion of Culligan's testing offering, laboratory water testing at EPA certified Culligan labs is
a more sophisticated method used to diagnose more nuanced water
problems. In the event a preliminary water test comes back
inconclusive, your Culligan Man may recommend further testing that
requires sending off your water sample to the Culligan laboratories
where we can use our advanced technology to further evaluate the
quality of your water.
For more information about water testing, or to get started
scheduling yours today, contact your local Culligan Man for details.
There's still time to take advantage of great deals on the water
treatment products you know and trust during Culligan's Hydration
All you have to do to get in on the fun is give up your old
water pitcher or water filter, and we'll give you a great discount
on a more economical and environmentally friendly Culligan
solution. With so many flexible
drinking water solutions to choose from, you'll be
celebrating more than just great tasting water - you'll be
celebrating all that money you're saving, too!
Take Back the
Our state of the art
reverse osmosis drinking water system, for example, costs just
pennies per glass to get cleaner, fresher drinking water right from
your kitchen faucet. You'll also be thanking yourself that you
don't have to deal with remembering to change the filters, or take
up space in your refrigerator with bulky pitchers.
Now through June 30th, you'll
be able to enjoy discounts on other
Culligan drinking water systems as well, so you can get
the water you want, just the way you like it. Whether it's a point
of use system like the
Aqua-Cleer® tucked neatly under the sink, a water
cooler for home, or a
convenient bottle free cooler for the office, you'll find
there's never been a better time to start drinking better tasting
Our customers are often surprised that the benefits don't end
there - whether you like coffee, tea, or something else, any
beverage made using water will come out tasting better than before
when you start with cleaner, more pure Culligan water. Many people
also find it improves the taste of foods prepared with water and
makes clean up a much easier process since there's less limescale
buildup and residue.
Turn in
your pitcher or water filter today for discounts, or
contact your local Culligan Man to learn more.
Maybe you're just thinking about making an appointment with a
Culligan Man, or maybe you've already scheduled a time for your
local Culligan Man to visit your home - you might be wondering
what you need to know or do to be prepared. Expect your Culligan
Man to have a lot of questions for you, like:
You'll also want to think about the kinds of things you're
curious about ahead of time, just to be sure you don't forget
anything when it comes right down to it. Consider talking over
these important topics:
It's also always a good idea to be prepared to talk about your
budget since it will help you and your Culligan Man feel better
about getting the right water treatment solution for your needs.
Think about this ahead of time, and have the conversation with
spouses/significant others so you know your household is on the
same page, you know what you're looking to spend, and how that
aligns with everyone's expectations.

Life is hard enough without having to worry about whether your
water is. Here are some simple answers to those hard water
What is Hard Water,
Hard water, simply put, is water with higher-than-average
mineral content. What "average" is may depend heavily on your area
out what the water is like near you) but generally refers to
water with between 120-180 ppm of dissolved minerals like iron,
calcium, manganese, or others. Typical freshwater can range between
15 and 385 ppm, though anything over 180 ppm is considered very
What Causes Hard
Geography has a lot to do with it - since water accrues its
hardness passing through mineral deposits and sediment present in
soil, the properties of your local water generally depend on the
properties of the landscape around you. Mountains outside town
known for their high iron or limestone content? There's a good
chance you'll have dissolved minerals tagging along to your
Infrastructure can also impact the mineral content and overall
hardness of water by the time it reaches your faucets. For example,
aging pipes and municipal water systems can leach iron or magnesium
into water as it travels through the system.
How Can I Tell if I Have Hard
There are a few easy ways to tell if your water is hard, and
while you'll probably need an
expert water test to determine the extent, signs that
things may be harder than normal can be relatively simple to
What Can I Do to Fix
The solution depends on what bothers you most about your hard
water. If there's a taste or odor that's bothersome while other
hard water symptoms aren't as big a deal, an under-sink or
point-of-use filter provides treatment where you're most
commonly drinking and using water. If it's the scratchy laundry or
the burned-out dishwasher or residue all over your coffee maker you
just can't stand, then a
whole-home water treatment solution will be able to target
the source of your problems.
The best way to know for sure is to have a
Culligan Man test your water, so once you know how hard it is -
and what exactly is making it that way - you can discuss the best
option(s) for addressing it.
What's in a
As it turns out, quite a lot. Salt-free water softeners have
been walking a line between vaguely misleading and downright
confusing since their emergence into the water treatment market.
Where the confusion starts is the "softener" portion of their name.
By definition, softeners remove hardness from water, which
typically includes minerals like calcium and iron that give water
its hard qualities. So, if we follow this definition and
understanding of what a water softener is, a salt-free softener is
a bit of a contradiction.
What Do Salt-free Softeners
Do, Then?
salt-free softeners rely on the process of ion exchange to
reduce sediment, odor, and chemicals from water, so the taste and
smell of treated water ends up being much more agreeable, but won't
actually provide the benefits most people are looking for from a
water treatment system, like removing scale buildup or increasing
the efficiency of washing machines and dishwashers.
In salt-free processes, the actual minerals remain in the water;
their chemical form is simply manipulated so that it is less likely
to adhere to surfaces. Technically, this process falls under the
category of water treatment referred to as "water conditioning."
This solution may also provide some results in terms of scale
reduction and softer laundry, but not to the extent most people
think of when they think about water softening.
Benefits of Salt-free
While salt-based systems will generally outperform their
salt-less counterparts when it comes down to salt conditioning,
there are some advantages to a salt-less system:
The best way to know which type of system will be right for you
and your home is to
talk with your Culligan Man after he or she tests your
water. Once you know what kinds of minerals you'll need to address,
you can discuss the most optimal options for your water.

co2 is different than what cars emit. Cars emit carbon monoxide. Have a look at China if you think that pumping carbon monoxide into the atmosphere is a good thing. More carbon in the atmosphere does not mean that plants grow more. Plants, just like anything, have a limit to the amount of carbon they can process. More than that limit is not processed it merely goes into the atmosphere or into the oceans (called ocean acidification). If your theory was correct then the plants in China would be enormous, having soaked up all that carbon. Instead, the plants in China are the same size as everywhere else, and the plants have been unable to soak all that carbon, thus resulting in China's dirty cities where people wear gas masks because of all the pollution.
If Carbon were so healthy to plant life, then Venus should be overflowing with plant life. Instead, the carbon on Venus led to runaway global warming and a temperature of 450 degrees celcius (as hot as an oven). Yet, Venus use to be Earth like (billions of years ago).
If you think that pumping more carbon monoxide is a good thing for your grandchildren then you are sorely mistaken.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Budaj Establishing Himself As Avs Goalie
by Paul on 03/15/07 at 11:16 AM ET
Comments (0)
from the Denver Post,
With the thunderous force of a hammer striking an anvil, the puck rang off the post of his goal, and Peter Budaj did not flinch.
What makes or breaks a goalie in the NHL can be found in the eyes. The best ones never blink.
Colorado will not win the Stanley Cup this year.
But, maybe, just maybe, the Avs have found a goalie who can take them to a championship.
It is safe to hang a No. 31 replica jersey in your closet.
Budaj is going to hang around. At age 24, he has grown up. One of the toughest jobs in Denver sports would make a lesser man crack.

On occasion, I saw a tiny light from above
but it was masked by depression's glove,
and the hands that were lovingly stretched out
were pushed away and messed all about.
But one trying day the sunbeam found me
and showed in a vision all I could be,
expressing if I wanted that prophecy to come true
there were some things that I needed do.
That round blink didn't have a gloomy glow
as it guided me to a Savior in-the-know;
we talked over all my blues and greys
and finally I could see through my angst's haze.

Spicy Green Tomato Vinaigrette
1/2 pound green tomatoes
1 clove garlic, peeled and quartered
2 tablespoons white or white wine vinegar
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 pinch big of salt and black pepper
Quarter tomatoes, removing leaves and place in a blender or food processor. Remove jalapeno stem, seeds, and white-colored veins. (Unless you want this really spicy, then leave a bit in there.) Place jalapeno along with the remaining ingredients into the blender with the tomatoes. Process until smooth. Taste to check seasonings. If it's too acidic, add a little more sweetener and maybe a pinch of salt.
1. To make salsa instead, omit the vinegar and oil and add the juice from one lime. Process until slightly chunky.
2. If you aren't able to grill, you could roast the vegetables instead. Put them all on a rimmed baking sheet and broil, turning occasionally, until they get soft and black spots appear. I'm not sure how long it will take because I didn't do it this way, but I would estimate about 10-15 minutes.

Bring the Jubilee by Ward Moore is a 1953 novel of alternate history. The point of divergence occurs in July 1863 when the Confederate States of America wins the Battle of Gettysburg and subsequently declares victory in the "War of Southron Independence" on July 4, 1864, after the surrender of the United States of America. The novel takes place in the impoverished rump United States in the mid-20th century as war looms between the Confederacy and its rival, the German Union. History takes an unexpected turn when the protagonist Hodge Backmaker, a historian, decides to travel back in time to witness the moment when the South won the war.[1]
The title, "Bring the Jubilee", is a reference to the chorus of the popular military song "Marching Through Georgia".
After the war and during the presidency of Robert E. Lee, who succeeded Jefferson Davis and became the second President of the Confederacy in 1865, the Confederate government, under the leadership of Congress, expressed increasingly imperialistic ambitions in defiance of the wishes of the anti-imperialistic President Lee, who also freed the slaves. Confederate forces first invaded Mexico, then continued south and conquered the whole of South America[2] before moving west to Pacific islands such as Hawaii. The Confederacy thrived as cities like Washington-Baltimore (merged from Washington, D.C., Baltimore, and Alexandria) and Leesburg (formerly Mexico City) became renowned international centers of culture and learning. The Confederacy stood as one of the world's two superpowers following the German Union's decisive victory in the Emperors' War (analogous to World War I), fought in Europe from 1914 to 1916. The German Union (an apparent merger of the German Empire and Austria-Hungary) swiftly advanced across most of Europe from the Baltic Sea to the Balkans and formed an alliance with a rejuvenated Spanish Empire. To maintain the balance of power, the Confederacy purchased Alaska from Russia and allied with Great Britain. Tensions grew between the two nations up until the 1950s, and people around the world lived under constant threat of impending war, with the defenseless United States certain to be the battleground.
The Confederacy's living standards, economic growth, political influence, and military strength are reminiscent of the post-WWII United States in reality. Although slavery has been abolished, to a large extent because of the efforts of men such as Robert E. Lee, conditions are still poor for ethnic minorities. Immigration is encouraged nevertheless, with immigrants being made subjects of the Confederacy like the Latin American population. (The only full voting Confederate citizens are the male descendants of those who were eligible Confederate voters on the Day of Southron Independence, July 4, 1864, when the final Treaty of Reading, ending the war, became effective.) Technology developed along different lines, as the internal combustion engine, incandescent light bulb, and heavier-than-air flying craft were never created. Steam-powered "minibiles" and dirigibles are the primary powered means of transportation in wealthier nations; most people still ride horses for short distances or take trains for longer trips. All communication is done by letter or telegraphs, which by this point had become a fixture in all prosperous homes in much the way that telephones had in reality, and all children learned to understand telegraphy at an early age until the act became as common and as natural as reading. (There is an element of steampunk (a term not coined until the 1980s) about this aspect of the novel.)
In sharp contrast to the Confederacy's prosperity, the United States is depicted as a rump state trapped in perpetual recession, with unemployment and corruption rampant. The U.S. is so destitute that a transcontinental railroad is never constructed past Iowa, while the Confederacy built seven. The only community of Americans who are generally prosperous are the Mormons in the western state of Deseret (who, in this timeline, were never forced to renounce polygamy). Otherwise, only successful landowners and the few lucky winners of the highly popular national lottery are able to rise above the semi-destitute lives of average citizens; most able-bodied adults are reduced to "indenting" themselves to businesspeople in exchange for the meager economic security that such affords. U.S. citizens are more hostile to African Americans than Confederates, seeing them as a major cause of the Union's downfall and unwanted competition over the few available jobs; those blacks who have not left the U.S. for Africa are constantly derided, harassed, and threatened by whites. In the U.S., mass lynchings of blacks are still common. The parties existing prior to the war, the Republican Party and the Democratic Party are gone, but a two-party system of a sort nonetheless exists. Political power in the country is divided between the Confederate-influenced Whigs and the ineffectual Populists. (The narrator lists several real-life American progressive politicians, such as William Jennings Bryan, George Norris, and Norman Thomas, as having historically been important leaders in the Populists.) Lastly, the U.S. military is practically nonexistent, apparently having been disbanded as a provision of the peace treaty with the Confederacy, with foreign powers frequently deploying troops unopposed across the U.S. in regions where their nationals have been attacked—a not infrequent occurrence, as many rural areas are poorly governed and lawlessness is rampant in them; highwaymen are a constant threat to the few travelers. Both parties back a one-child policy as a way of preventing the country's meager resources from being further stretched; this has led to a rather puritanical society in which late marriage is strongly encouraged, resulting in a declining population.
The narrator of the novel is Hodgins "Hodge" McCormick Backmaker, who writes a diary of his life in our timeline in the year 1877. Hodge was born in 1921 in the alternate timeline of his story, in the town of Wappingers Falls in Dutchess County, New York. In 1938 at age 17, he travels to New York City, the largest city of the United States (and yet a backwater compared to some Confederate cities), in a desperate attempt to gain admittance to a college or university. After being robbed of his few possessions, he comes into contact with the "Grand Army," a nationalistic organization working to restore the United States to its former glory through acts of sabotage and terrorism. One of the Grand Army's operations involves counterfeiting Spanish currency, with the goal of provoking war between the Confederacy and the German Union in Spanish territories, sparing the U.S. from becoming the two superpowers' battlefield. Despite remaining critical of the organization's activities, Hodge accepts work and lodging with a Grand Army member working from a bookshop. Content to work for food and the opportunity to read at every waking hour, Hodge stays in the bookshop for 6 years. (Young Hodge's life is largely autobiographical of Ward Moore.) One friend he meets during this time is Consul Enfandin, an emissary of the Republic of Haiti, the only small country south of the Mason-Dixon Line that has managed to retain independence from all of the great empires. Hodge leaves New York in 1944 for rural Pennsylvania at the invitation of a mysterious woman named Barbara Haggerwells who is part of a small co-operative society.
Hodge's aspirations of becoming a historian researching the war between North and South become reality when he joins this self-sufficient collective of scholars and intellectuals called Haggershaven, founded by the children of a Confederate Major named Herbert Haggerwells, who settled after the war in the land he had defeated. Here Hodge meets Barbara Haggerwells, an emotionally disturbed research scientist on the verge of developing time travel. Many secondary characters with their own subplots are introduced during this part of the story, including some of the last few Asian-Americans alive (there has been a series of horrifying pogroms against their kind throughout North America) and a mysterious Spanish refugee woman who forms a love triangle with Hodge and Barbara. In 1952, Hodge takes the opportunity to finally see in person the Battle of Gettysburg which was fought not far from Haggershaven. Wearing a special watch to keep track of the differences in time, he travels back in time to 1863, where he then inadvertently causes the death of Captain Herbert Haggerwells ("never to be Major now," remarks Hodge when he recognizes that the dead man was a younger version of the exalted portrait on Haggershaven's living room walls), who would have occupied Little Round Top for the South during the battle. In Hodge's timeline, Haggerwells' men held the hill so that the Confederates won the Battle of Gettysburg, paving the way for their victory over the Union in Philadelphia a year later; in the resultant timeline (our own), Union Colonel Strong Vincent's 83rd Pennsylvania Infantry and Colonel Joshua Chamberlain's 20th Maine Volunteer Infantry Regiment occupy the hill early on and successfully repel Confederate advances. In the novel, Hodge asserts that Little Round Top is the key to the battle, and thus the war. Hodge's actions have led to Union control of the hill, so events play out as they did in our timeline, much to the surprise of Hodge, who witnesses Pickett's Charge having a different outcome than he read about. The South loses the battle, and eventually the war. With history changed to make the world we know, Hodge discovers he is unable to return to his previous reality since the circumstances which had made the development of time travel possible have been unalterably changed: technology evolves along different lines, and Haggerwells has died before siring any descendants including Barbara, so Haggershaven and the time machine will never exist. Hodge, stranded in our timeline, hires himself out as a farmhand at the estate which would have been Haggershaven but is now owned by the Thammis family. Between 1863 and 1877 (when he is writing this story), Hodge comes to realize that the changed post-war United States is in some ways superior to the equivalent timeline in his past. He also finds it fascinating that people always talk of the Civil War rather than the War of Southron Independence, since the victors' name for the war takes precedence. However, he has an ominous feeling about the inauguration of Rutherford B. Hayes, suspecting that it will end the Reconstruction Era prematurely and weaken the cause of civil rights. Hodge then explains why he felt his story had to be written down, because he has considered the possibility of other timelines existing in parallel universes but has come to the conclusion that by preventing the future he was born in, he destroyed the only dimension where travel between them was possible. After he says this, the story ends abruptly in mid-sentence.
An "editorial note" following the story relates how one Frederick Winter Thammis had found Hodge's diary while remodeling his house in 1953, the year the real life book came out. Frederick's father had grown up knowing Hodge as a beloved ex-servant kept on a pension after he was too old to work. The family enjoyed listening to Hodge's stories of the world he was born in, but had not thought him fully sane. Thammis junior says the story reminds him of The Wizard of Oz. Thammis notes that he has found a watch of a unique, two-dialed design with the manuscript, and ends the book by quoting from a recent history book which asks what could possibly have caused the Confederates' failure to occupy Little Round Top, "an error with momentous consequences."
Groff Conklin characterized the novel as "an important original work... richly and realistically imagine[d]."[3] Richard A. Lupoff described it as "one of the most ingenious parallel world stories ever written."[4] Algis Budrys, however, wrote that "Bring the Jubilee has always seemed a little labored to me."[5] P. Schuyler Miller similarly suggested the novel's appeal was limited, although he praised its mature, meticulously thought-out structure.[6]
The Jewish Daily Forward included Bring the Jubilee among "the best literary examples of alternate history."[7] Aldiss and Wingrove listed it as a "brilliant alternate history novel" and noted that its "wit and ingenuity" were influential in the genre.[8]
The theme of the Confederacy winning the Civil War and becoming an independent state was not a new one, as Winston Churchill's segment of If It Had Happened Otherwise and Murray Leinster's Sidewise in Time had toyed with the idea in the 1930s. However, Moore's book was more developed and reached a slightly wider audience than those two works, and encouraged many later writers to take up the same thread. Virtually all of them, however, depicted the USA rump state as doing better than in Moore's book. MacKinlay Kantor's magazine serial novella If the South Had Won the Civil War (1960, published in book form 1961) and Harry Turtledove's The Guns of the South (1994) also include the plot element of Robert E. Lee succeeding Jefferson Davis as President of a victorious Confederacy (Kantor's book also has Lee win at Gettysburg, while Turtledove's has him aided by time travellers the year after losing the battle). Turtledove later depicted a very different version of Confederate independence in the Southern Victory series of 11 books which begins with Lee winning the war almost 9 months before the Battle of Gettysburg would have taken place, making the questions of Pickett's Charge, Little Round Top, etc., irrelevant. Newt Gingrich and some co-authors published a trilogy of books depicting in detail an alternate history in which the Confederacy wins at Gettysburg and still the Union wins the overall war (in fact, quicker than in actual history).
Publication history[edit]
A shorter, novella-length version of Bring the Jubilee appeared in the November 1952 issue of The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction before publication of the novel.[9] Boucher and McComas praised the expansion for including "a thoroughly justified increase in background detail and depth of characterization"[10]
After the release of the original 1953 Ballantine Books edition, the novel was republished in 1965 by Four Square Science Fiction.[11] It was reissued by Avon Books in the 1970s and by Del Rey Books in 1997.[12] In 2001, the novella was included in the anthology The Best Alternate History Stories of the 20th Century.[13]

Coming from a rider who does most of the overtakings in the races, I'll say it's valid enough to keep other riders who do less overtakings to say otherwise.
Technological improvement is inevitable. But sure there're ways to make the sport more enjoyable by, for example, widden the track. So riders can have more racing lines to do the overtakings. It will also give more room for riders to avoid collision with other rider.

[0001] 1. Field of the Invention
[0002] The invention generally relates to the field of computer security and, more particularly, to digital licenses and related systems and methods that include references to state information that is external to the licenses.
[0003] Authorization policy languages and data structures are frequently used to grant users rights to access digital data. Conventional authorization policy languages and data structures utilize licenses. A license typically identifies the issuer, the user or principal, the right, the resource and any conditions. FIG. 1 illustrates a conventional mechanism for granting rights to access a resource 102. Resource 102 may be a digital work in the form of an image, an audio or video file, an e-book, or the like. When a trusted issuer 104 desires to grant a user 106 access to resource 102, trusted issuer 102 issues a license 108 to user 106.
[0004] License 108 includes a condition field 108 a that limits the exercise of the license to four times. When utilized, user 106 transmits license 108 to resource 102. Resource 102 examines the license and then modifies condition field 108 a or creates a new license 110 to show that the license is only valid three more times. The updated or new license containing the updated state information is then transmitted to user 106. Alternatively, user 106 transmits license 108 to an intermediate access control module that mediates access to resource 102.
[0005] There are several drawbacks to the mechanism of granting rights in the manner shown in FIG. 1. For example, a license that has been rewritten or altered will not be correctly signed by the trusted issuer and so must be specially treated. Moreover, user 106 must be kept from retaining a usable copy of the original license 108 and using it more than four times, perhaps at different locations on a network. Finally, modifying or reissuing licenses can be a prohibitive burden on resources and limits flexibility.
[0006] Therefore, there is a need in the art for an authorization policy language and data structure that allows licenses to describe state information without requiring that the license be rewritten or modified as the state information is changed or updated and without placing related constraints on the use of licenses.
[0007] One or more of the above-mentioned needs in the art are satisfied by the disclosed authorization languages and data structures. Computer-implemented mechanisms for granting rights to a resource are described. A trusted issuer provides a license to a principal. The license identifies one or more principals, resources, rights and conditions. At least one reference to state information is included in at least one field of the license. The actual state information is external to the license. When evaluating the license, a resource or access control module requests the state information from the entity identified in the reference to state information. Storing the state information at a location other than the license limits the need to reissue licenses after each use and provides flexibility to trusted issuers and users of the licenses.
[0008] Aspects of the present invention are described with respect to the accompanying figures, in which like reference numerals identify like elements, and in which:
[0009]FIG. 1 illustrates a prior art mechanism for granting rights to access a resource;
[0010]FIG. 2 shows an illustrative distributed computing system operating environment that may be used to implement aspects of the invention;
[0011]FIG. 3 illustrates a mechanism for granting a principal rights to a resource with the use of state information stored remotely to a license, in accordance with an embodiment of the invention;
[0012]FIG. 4 illustrates a mechanism for granting rights to a resource wherein state information may be transferred from one device to another, in accordance with an embodiment of the invention;
[0013]FIG. 5 illustrates a method of generating and processing a license that includes at least one reference to state information, in accordance with an embodiment of the invention; and
[0014]FIG. 6 illustrates a license data structure formatted in accordance with an embodiment of the invention.
[0015] Aspects of the present invention are suitable for use in a distributed computing system environment. In a distributed computing environment, tasks may be performed by remote computer devices that are linked through communications networks. The distributed computing environment may include client and server devices that may communicate either locally or via one or more computer networks. Embodiments of the present invention may comprise special purpose and/or general purpose computer devices that each may include standard computer hardware such as a central processing unit (CPU) or other processing means for executing computer executable instructions, computer readable media for storing executable instructions, a display or other output means for displaying or outputting information, a keyboard or other input means for inputting information, and so forth. Examples of suitable computer devices include hand-held devices, multiprocessor systems, microprocessor-based or programmable consumer electronics, networked PCs, minicomputers, mainframe computers, and the like.
[0016] The invention will be described in the general context of computer-executable instructions, such as program modules, that are executed by a processing device, including, but not limited to a personal computer. Generally, program modules include routines, programs, objects, components, data structures, etc., that perform particular tasks or implement particular abstract data types. Typically the functionality of the program modules may be combined or distributed as desired in various environments.
[0017] Embodiments within the scope of the present invention also include computer readable media having executable instructions. Such computer readable media can be any available media that can be accessed by a general purpose or special purpose computer. By way of example, and not limitation, such computer readable media can comprise RAM, ROM, EEPROM, CD-ROM or other optical disk storage, magnetic disk storage or other magnetic storage devices, or any other medium which can be used to store the desired executable instructions and which can be accessed by a general purpose or special purpose computer. Combinations of the above should also be included within the scope of computer readable media. Executable instructions comprise, for example, instructions and data which cause a general purpose computer, special purpose computer, or special purpose processing device to perform a certain function or group of functions.
[0018]FIG. 2 illustrates an example of a suitable distributed computing system 200 operating environment in which the invention may be implemented. Distributed computing system 200 is only one example of a suitable operating environment and is not intended to suggest any limitation as to the scope of use or functionality of the invention. System 200 is shown as including a communications network 202. The specific network implementation used can be, for example, any type of local area network (LAN) and associated LAN topologies and protocols; simple point-to-point networks (such as direct modem-to-modem connection); and wide area network (WAN) implementations, including public Internets and commercial based network services such as the Microsoft Network or America Online's network. Systems may also include more than one communication network, such as a LAN coupled to the Internet.
[0019] Computer device 204, computer device 206 and computer device 208 may be coupled to communications network 202 through communication devices. Network interfaces or adapters may be used to connect computer devices 204, 206 and 208 to a LAN. When communications network 202 includes a WAN, modems or other means for establishing communications over WANs may be utilized. Computer devices 204, 206 and 208 may communicate with one another via communication network 202 in ways that are well known in the art. The existence of any of various well-known protocols, such as TCP/IP, Ethernet, FTP, HTTP and the like, is presumed. Computer devices 204, 206 and 208 may exchange content, applications, messages and other objects via communications network 202.
[0020]FIG. 3 illustrates a mechanism for granting rights to resources in accordance with an embodiment of the invention. A trusted issuer 302 transmits a license 304 to a principal 306. License 304 may be formatted in accordance with a derivative of XML or created with an object oriented programming language. License 304 includes: a field 304 a identifying the principal, a field 304 b identifying the right, a field 304 c identifying the resource and a field 304 d identifying one or more conditions. In the embodiment shown, license 304 includes a condition in the form of an exercise limit in field 304 e. In particular, license 304 can be used at most six times.
[0021] Condition field 304 d also includes a reference to state information. In particular, field 304 f identifies a state server 310. In one embodiment of the invention, the reference to state information is in the form of a universal resource locator (URL). In other embodiments of the invention, the reference to state information contains a universal resource name (URN), such as a UDDI name.
[0022] In addition to transmitting license 304 to principal 306, trusted issuer 302 may also transmit initial state information 308 to a state server 310. State information 308 may identify license 304 and include an initial value. One skilled in the art will appreciate that there are numerous ways to initialize state information that is stored at a location external to the license. For example, state server 310 may automatically initialize a value to zero whenever the server receives new state information 308. In another embodiment of the invention, principal 306 may transmit information to state server 310 to initialize state information. State server 310 may include a database 312 or other memory mechanism that stores current state values for corresponding licenses. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 3, an implicit identifier corresponding to the license in question is used as the key to retrieve and later to set the state value held at state server 310. In another embodiment of this invention, the state reference in license 304 may also contain an explicit key to be used to retrieve and set the state value held at state server 310.
[0023] When principal 306 desires to exercise the right included in license 304, principal 306 transmits license 304 to an access control module 316. Access control module 316 may be a software or hardware module, residing locally or remotely to corresponding resource 314 and mediates access to resource 314. Access control module 316 may include a parsing module 318 to parse and interpret licenses. In one particular embodiment that uses licenses formatted in accordance with XrML schemas, parsing module 318 parses an XrML document to obtain license data. In alternative embodiments of the invention, one or more resources may include access control modules and/or parsing modules that perform the functions of access control module 316 and parsing module 318.
[0024] When analyzing license 304, access control module 316 may request current state information from state server 310. In response to this request, state server 310 may transmit current state information 320 to access control module 316. Access control module 316 may then use state information to evaluate whether one or more conditions included in license 304 have been satisfied. In some embodiments of the invention, state information is included within at least one Boolean expression. In another embodiment of the invention, more than one principal may possess separate licenses including references to the same state information. For example, license 304 allows principal 306 to read resource 314 six times. Another principal (not shown) may include a similar license containing a reference to the same state information. In that embodiment of the invention, the maximum number of times that resource 314 may be read by both principals together is equal to six times. There are numerous alternative permutations that may involve several principals utilizing references to the same state information.
[0025] After evaluating license 304 and granting access to resource 314, access control module 316 may then transmit updated state information 322 to state server 310. Updated state information 322 may identify the license and an updated state value. Of course, there are numerous alternative methods for updating state information that are well within the skill of the art. For example, state server 310 may be configured to automatically increment or decrement a state value by one each time a state value is requested. In another alternative embodiment, resource 314 may provide updated state information to state server 310.
[0026]FIG. 4 illustrates embodiment of the invention in which state information may be transferred from one location to another location. Allowing for the transfer state information provides increased flexibility to trusted issuers and license holders. The non-limiting implementation shown in FIG. 4 involves a music club and music files. One skilled in the art will appreciate that the present invention is not limited to such an implementation and that aspects of the invention may be used with numerous other implementations that involve the transfer of state information from one location to another.
[0027] A music club trusted issuer 402 transmits a license 404 to a music club user 406. License 404 includes a condition that the user 406 may listen to a certain music file 408 at most four times. License 404 also includes a reference to state information held at a state server 410. State server 410 may be coupled to music club trusted issuer 402 and/or user 406 via a wide area network, such as the Internet 412. Similar to state server 310 (shown in FIG. 3), state server 410 may include a database 414 that stores current state information corresponding to one or more licenses. When user 406 desires to listen to music file 408, user 406 may transmit license 404 to a stereo system 416. Stereo system 416 may include an access control module 418. Access control module 418 may function similarly to access control module 316 (shown in FIG. 3).
[0028] Before downloading and playing music file 408, stereo system 416 may evaluate license 404. In particular, stereo system 416 may determine whether or not the currents state information stored in state server 410 will allow the access. FIG. 4 shows embodiment which music file 408 is stored remotely from stereo system 416. In alternative embodiments of the invention, music file 408 may be stored locally. User 406 may wish to transfer music file 408 to a mobile music system 420. Mobile music system 420 may be in the form of an MP3 player and may include an access control module 422. Mobile music system 420 may be intended to play music files while it is not attached to any network.
[0029] In order to control the distribution and use of music file 408 and to allow its use on mobile music system 420 while that system is not attached to any network, stereo system 416 and mobile music system 420 may be configured so that copies of the appropriate licenses and their referenced state information are also transferred between the components whenever music file 408 is transferred. In one embodiment of this invention, when music file 408 and state information are transferred to mobile music system 420, an appropriate synchronization mechanism may be used to prevent stereo system 416 from playing music file 408 until the state information is returned to stereo system 416. User 406 may listen to music file 408 with mobile music system 420 even though mobile music system 420 is not attached to any network and therefore is not coupled to state server 410. The relevant state information and license 404 may be cached locally within mobile music system 420 and access control module 422 may be used to ensure that the terms of license 404 are not exceeded.
[0030] When mobile music system 420 is reconnected with stereo system 416, updated state information may be retrieved from mobile music system 420 and stored in stereo system 416. Then, the updated state information may be transmitted to state server 410. In one embodiment of this invention, mobile music system 420 may be configured to delete any copy of music file 408 whenever state information is transferred from mobile music system 420 to any other entity.
[0031]FIG. 5 illustrates a method of distributing and processing licenses in accordance with an embodiment of the invention. First, in step 502 the trusted issuer generates a license that includes a reference to state information. As discussed above, the reference may be included in a condition field of the license. The trusted issuer may also transmit the initial state information to a state server. In addition to transmitting initial state information, the trusted issuer may also transmit the identification of principals and/or licenses that have access to the state information. The license is then transmitted to the principal in step 506. Of course, it is not necessary that the license be transmitted to the principal after the initial state information is transmitted to a state server or other entity. One skilled in the art will appreciate that several steps shown in FIG. 5 may be in alternative orders.
[0032] In step 508, the license is received at the resource or an access control module. Next, in step 510 it is determined whether the license contains any unchecked state conditions. If there is at least one unchecked state condition, in step 512, a state condition is selected to be checked. The selected state condition may correspond to the first unchecked state condition in the license. The resource or access control module receives the relevant state information from the appropriate state server in step 514.
[0033] In step 516, it is determined whether or not the unchecked state condition is satisfied. Step 516 may include inserting the received state information into a Boolean expression and evaluating the expression. When the condition is satisfied, control returns to step 510 where it is determined whether or not there are any further unchecked state conditions. When the condition is not satisfied, in step 518 access is denied.
[0034] When there are no longer any unchecked state conditions, in step 520 it is determined whether the license is otherwise valid. Step 520 may involve evaluating other conditions included within the license, verifying the integrity of the license or ensuring the authenticity of a signature of a trusted issuer. If the license is not otherwise valid, access is denied in step 518. When the license is otherwise valid, in step 522 the principal is allowed to utilize the resource. Finally, updated state information may be transmitted to the state server in step 524.
[0035]FIG. 6 illustrates a license data structure in accordance with one embodiment of the invention. A license 602 may be formatted in accordance with a markup language such as XML or XrML. Field 604 identifies a principal. One or more rights are identified in field 606. The right may include the right to download, listen to, or otherwise utilize a digital file, the right to use or access a service or some other right. The resource is identified in field 608. A condition field 610 may include one or more conditions that limit how the license may be utilized. Conditions field 610 may also include limits regarding the transfer of state information. For example, a condition may prevent state information from being transferred to a device that is not coupled to a state server or other entity storing state information, or may otherwise restrict its use. Field 612 includes an exercise limit to limit the number of times license 602 may be utilized. Of course numerous other expressions may be used instead of an exercise limit, such as a total time period that the resource may be utilized. Next, a state reference field 614 may be included to identify where the current state information is stored.
[0036] Further, embodiments of the invention may be implemented in hardware, software, or by an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC). The firmware may be in a read-only memory and the software may reside on a medium including, but not limited to, read-only memory, random access memory, floppy disk or compact disk.
[0037] The present invention has been described in terms of preferred and exemplary embodiments thereof. Numerous other embodiments, modifications and variations within the scope and spirit of the appended claims will occur to persons of ordinary skill in the art from a review of this disclosure.
