New Zealand's star kakapo has arrived from Wellington for a six-week guest slot at Mangatautari Visitors Centre. Sirocco, one of 126 kakapo left in the world, was appointed the official spokesbird for conservation in 2010 by Prime Minister John Key.
Sirocco gained worldwide attention in 2009 when his amorous antics were filmed in the documentary Last Chance to See, fronted by British actor Stephen Fry. Footage captured Sirocco trying to mate with zoologist Mark Carwardine's head.
The flightless parrot, who commands his own seat on aeroplanes, was hosted by Maungatautari Ecological Island Trust in 2012.
He proved a huge drawcard during his seven-week stay which was extended for a week because of demand. During his stay at Maungatautari Sirocco charmed and delighted more than 4000 visitors.
Tours at the visitors centre will shed light on how the Kakapo Recovery Programme and Maungatautari Ecological Island Trust are working together to raise the profile of the species.
Organisers are expecting record numbers again this year and are hinting at an even better show.
Online booking numbers are already strong, said project manager for the event, Charlotte Tollervey.
"We very much plan to give visitors to this year's event an experience they will never forget. I don't want to give too much away - but we plan on fully utilising our beautiful surroundings here at Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari and adding a touch of drama to an already atmospheric evening."
Sirocco will be receiving visitors during nightly tours until September 16.
Tours will be based at the Sanctuary Mountain Maungatautari Visitor Centre in Pukeatua, 30 minutes from Cambridge. For more information and tickets go to sanctuarymountain.co.nz/tours.

From Calder Race Course
Rich Meadow Stable and Alan Burkhard's 4-year-old Slew Valley is likely to invade Calder from Maryland for a return to competition in the $100,000 Tropical Park Turf Handicap (gr. III) next Saturday (Dec. 8)."We plan on coming," said trainer Michael Dickinson Thursday from his Tapeta Farm training center in North East, Md. "He'll work here on Saturday and be flown down next week if everything goes all right."A Maryland-bred of Valley Crossing, Slew Valley was entered in the Breeders' Cup Turf (gr. I) at Belmont Park on Sat., Oct. 27, but was scratched the morning of the race after he coughed when coming back from an early morning canter at Tapeta.His last start was an unplaced finish in the Canadian International (gr. I) at Woodbine on Sept. 30, but he had turned in three solid performances in top class stakes prior to that. In the Bowling Green Handicap (gr. II) at Belmont on July 7 he just missed by a half-length when second to King Cugat.Next was the Sword Dancer Invitational (gr. I) at Saratoga and he finished third, beaten only two lengths for it all by With Anticipation. Then came a another good effort in the Atto Mile (gr. I) at Woodbine when he finished fifth, but was beaten only 1 ½ lengths for it all by undefeated Numerous Times.Rich Meadow Farm owner James Hindman bred Slew Valley and sold an interest in him to Burkhard after he won his turf course debut at Belmont in July, 2000 for trainer Gary Sciacca. He was then placed with Dickinson and ran only once more last year, finishing unplaced in the Secretariat Stakes (gr. I) at Arlington Park.Dickinson is best known for his work with Da Hoss, winner of the Breeders' Cup Mile (gr. I) in 1996 and 1998.

Cute, friendly, and super tiny. Staff is always friendly, a little pricey & always delicious. Lots of unusual & great flavors.
Many delicious flavors of ice cream for when the urge strikes you. Walk with your cone or cup to the harbor or find a bench nearby in the shade.
Most yogurt stands have one flavor of yogurt and in he Camden Maine area it's typically raspberry chocolate chip. Ok, I get that most people eat ice cream but not all of us can (lactose intolerant). Can't we have one other flavor so we have a choice? Camden Cone has several flavors -- good for you! Try the pineapple orange...
Right at the harbor. Served Maine Gifford Ice Cream. Got the vanilla which tasted more like old fashion vanilla. Very good. Yes it was a young man (maybe 20) working the booth but he was very service oriented and very friendly. Even though he was visiting with another young lady he immediately turned his attention to me when I got...
A great place to get a cone and have a nice view of the river front. The soft serve was excellent and a good price.
We came across this tiny ice cream store and ordered some ,great selections and flavors, really yummy stuff, worth a try.
average ice cream at high prices, scooped by kids more interested in their phones than in serving the public
Had some great blueberry ice cream while walking around downtown. The location was quite buay, buy the service was friendly and prompt. Would recommend.
We were in Camden for three days and found this little ice cream shop on the second day. What a treat! Endless choices for any ice cream connoisseur. I found the mint chocolate chip just perfect with thick slivers of chocolate chips. Husband loved the blueberry, silky smooth and creamy. A great dessert choice and way to end the evening!
When we travel to Maine we always stop at Camden Cone for a cone of blueberry ice cream. It is the best I've had after trying several places.

The adventures of a mischievous young boy and his friends growing up in a Mississippi River town in the nineteenth century
Though TOM SAWYER, Twain's "other" coming-of-age tale, has much in common with HUCKLEBERRY FINN, including some of the characters, its hero is not the maverick iconoclast that Huck Finn is. As Twain traces the comic adventures of the inventive young Tom, he effectively and lovingly recreates the pastoral world of his own Hannibal, Missouri, childhood, including a portrait of his brother Henry (who died young in a shipboard explosion) as Tom's younger brother, Sid. Because Tom Sawyer's comic battles with prim conformity are always innocent and uncontroversial, the novel is not a ground-breaking masterpiece like HUCKEBERRY FINN. It is essentially a book for young readers--and a great one.

Heeringa, Steven, J. Wagner, M. Torres, N.H. Duan, T. Adams, and P. Berglund. 2004. "Sample Designs and Sampling Methods for the Collaborative Psychiatric Epidemiology Studies (Cpes)." International Journal of Methods in Psychiatric Research, 13:221-240.
This paper provides an overview of the probability sample designs and sampling methods for the Collaborative Psychiatric Epidemiology Studies (CPES): the National Comorbidity Survey Replication (NCS-R), the National Study of American Life (NSAL) and the National Latino and Asian American Study of Mental Health (NLAAS). The multi-stage sample design and respondent selection procedures used in these three studies are based on the University of Michigan Survey Research Center's National Sample designs and operations. The paper begins with a general overview of these designs and procedures and then turns to a more detailed discussion of the adaptation of these general methods to the three specific study designs. The detailed discussions of the individual study samples focus on design characteristics and Outcomes that are important to analysts of the CPES data sets and to researchers and statisticians who are planning future studies. The paper describes how the expected Survey cost and error Structure for each of these surveys influenced the original design of the samples and how actual field experience led to changes and adaptations to arrive at the final samples of each Survey population.

1833 $5 Large Date MS62 PCGS. B. 2-B, Miller-168, R.5. ...
Exceedingly Rare 1833 Half Eagle, MS62 PCGS1833 $5 Large Date MS62 PCGS. B. 2-B, Miller-168, R.5. Very rare, as are both date variants, with the Large Date variety the more "common" of the two, representing perhaps 60-70% of the surviving examples. The date is widely spaced with the period distant to the right of the D on the reverse.
The fields are bright with a strong semi-prooflike gleam. The devices are somewhat irregularly struck with some areas absolutely full, and others noticeably soft. A curving die crack is seen from the rim through star 1 down through the 1 of the date and back to the rim. This can be used as a future identifier. The rich green-gold color of the coin has taken on a light accent of reddish patina, and there are only small abrasions scattered across each side. Population: 3 in 62, 6 finer (3/04).

From the post:
An argument can certainly be made that the economics of cybersecurity largely favor the attacker. While the takedown of Darkode was a win for the good guys, at least temporarily, the unfortunate reality is there remains a multitude of other underground forums where criminals can gain easy access to the tools and technical support needed to organize and execute an attack. A simple search can get you quick access to virtually any tool needed for the job. Our role as executives and security professionals is to make sure these adversaries roaming these virtual havens of nastiness have to spend an inordinate amount of resources to try and achieve their objectives.
Many organizations are working to tip the scales back in their favor through a more integrated approach to security that not only includes increased spending and coordination across technology use and deployment; but also are looking at how they can improve overall efficacy through improved people training and policy management. These changes obviously come at a cost.
Many organizations are asking the natural question – how much do I really need to spend on security in order to tip the scales in my favor? In order to answer that question you must first quantify the impact and risk of a cyber attack.
The current economics of software and hardware creation shift the burden of security defects to the end user. That's why the questions posed in Scott's post are by users trying to tip the security scales back into their favor.
That starts the discussion in the wrong place. Users to address security issues with more software produced by the same processes that put them at risk? Can you see any reason or that to not fill me with confidence?
Moreover, fixing cybersecurity issues with software, at the source of its creation, places the cost of that fix on the person/s best able to make the repair. Which in turn saves thousands of other users the cost of defending against that particular cyberrisk.
In the short run, we will all have to battle cyberinsecurity but let's also take names and assign responsibility for the defects that we do encounter.]]>
Or at least not by any rational definition of "successful." OK, so one or two impressionable teens in the UK attempt to join the Islamic State. How is that level of threat even marketable?
The situation is even worse in the United States where the FBI badgers emotionally unstable people into saying they want to go help the Islamic State and then arrest them for attempting to provide material assistance. That's a real stretch.
Why not compare the "success" of the US military in using popular entertainment to carry its message versus that of the Islamic State using social media?
Tom Secker has recently produced a treasure trove of documents on the influence of the US military on popular entertainment, especially television shows.
From his post:
In the biggest public release of documents from the DOD's propaganda office I recently received over 1500 pages of new material. Just under 1400 pages come from the US Army's Entertainment Liaison Office: regular activity reports covering January 2010 to April 2015. Another over 100 pages of reports come from the US Air Force's office, covering 2013.
The request I filed asked for all such reports since the last release covering 2005-2006 (Army documents here, Air Force documents here) but due a variety of excuses the release was limited to these 1500 pages. The Air Force said that no documents were available from 2015 'due to ongoing computer outages in the Los Angeles office'. If you believe that then you'll believe anything. While the Army documents are fully digitised and easily searchable, the Air Force ones are mid-resolution scans of printed out emails/online network files.
Meanwhile, the documents between 2006-2010 (Army) and 2006-2013 (Air Force) appear to have been destroyed in keeping with the file retention policy. We already knew that the DHS only retains documents from their entertainment office for six years before shredding them like a CREEP finance report. For the military it appears to be even less than that, though given the absurd excuse offered by the Air Force it is possible they have a lot more records than they are admitting to having.
Nonetheless, this is the largest and most up-to-date release of documents from the world of Entertainment Liaison Offices. It substantially increases our knowledge of the scale and type of involvement the US military has in popular entertainment, particularly TV shows. However, details of changes to films and TV shows requested by the DOD in exchange for their co-operation are conspicuously absent (no surprises there).
Given the disparity in the size and scope of the United States versus Islamic State media campaigns, it appears the United States cannot tolerate any challenge to its world-view.
As a lifelong US citizen, I don't find that surprising (disappointing but not surprising) at all.
PS: Be sure to check out the documents that Tom has obtained!]]>
A very delightful take on using basic Unix tools for text processing.
Exercises cover:
1. Count words in a text
2. Sort a list of words in various ways
- ascii order
- dictionary order
- ''rhyming'' order
3. Extract useful info from a dictionary
4. Compute ngram statistics
5. Make a Concordance
Fifty-three (53) pages of pure Unix joy!
From the webpage:
This tutorial goes over some basic concepts and commands for text processing in R. R is not the only way to process text, nor is it really the best way. Python is the de-facto programming language for processing text, with a lot of builtin functionality that makes it easy to use, and pretty fast, as well as a number of very mature and full featured packages such as NLTK and textblob. Basic shell scripting can also be many orders of magnitude faster for processing extremely large text corpora — for a classic reference see Unix for Poets. Yet there are good reasons to want to use R for text processing, namely that we can do it, and that we can fit it in with the rest of our analyses. I primarily make use of the
stringrpackage for the following tutorial, so you will want to install it:
Perhaps not the best tool for text processing but if you are inside R and have text processing needs, this will get you started.]]>
Peter Swire writes:
The nature of secrets is changing. The "half-life of secrets" is declining sharply for many signals intelligence and other intelligence activities as secrets that may have been kept successfully for 25 years or more are exposed well before.
For evidence, one need look no further than the 2015 breach at the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), of personnel records for 22 million U.S. government employees and family members. For spy agencies, theft of the security clearance records is uniquely painful – whoever gains access to the breached files will have an unparalleled ability to profile individuals in the intelligence community and subject them to identity theft.
OPM is just one instance in a long string of high-profile breaches, where hackers gain access to personal information, trade secrets, or classified government material. The focus of the discussion here, though, is on complementary trends in information technology, including the continuing effects of Moore's Law, the sociology of the information technology community, and changed sources and methods for signals intelligence. This article is about those risks of discovery and how the intelligence community must respond.
My views on this subject were formed during my experience as one of five members of President Obama's Review Group on Intelligence and Communications Technology in 2013. There is a crucial difference between learning about a wiretap on the German Chancellor from three decades ago and learning that a wiretap has targeted the Current German Chancellor, Angela
Merkel, while she is still in office and able to object effectively. In government circles, this alertness to negative consequences is sometimes called "the front-page test," which describes how our actions will look if they appear on the front page of the newspaper. The front-page test becomes far more important to decision-makers when secrets become known sooner. Even if the secret operation is initially successful, the expected costs of disclosure become higher as the
average time to disclosure decreases.
Peter generously attributes secrecy in the intelligence community to fear of "mosaic theory," that is that an opponent may be gathering any and all information in an effort to indirectly discover what it cannot discover directly.
While application of "mosaic theory" to an intelligence agency isn't impossible, revelations from the Pentagon Papers to date have shown criminal misconduct, concealing incompetence, career protection, and a host of other unsavory motives are at least as likely as application of "mosaic theory."
The intelligence community should recognize secrecy for the sake of concealing criminal misconduct, incompetence, career protection, etc., weakens its claim for protection of legitimate secrets.
Only the intelligence community can clean its own house. The alternative is random disclosure of secrets of varying importance.
This is the first paper of the Cybersecurity Intitiative.
From their about page:
There is perhaps no issue that has grown more important, more rapidly, on so many different levels, than cybersecurity. It affects personal privacy, business prosperity and the wider economy, as well as national security and international relations. It is a field that matters for everything from human rights and corporate profits to fundamental issues of war and peace. And with the rapid growth in both the number of people and devices coming online across the globe, the security of information systems is only going to grow in importance. Yet, while ever more amounts are spent each year, our collective understanding of the problem remains immature and both public policy and private sector efforts have failed to match the scale or complexity of this challenge for us all. The Internet has connected us, but the policies and debates that surround the security of our networks are too often disconnected, disjoint, and stuck in an unsuccessful status quo.
This is what New America's Cybersecurity Initiative is designed to address. We believe that it takes a wider network to face the network of diverse security issues. Success in this endeavor will require collaboration – across organizations, issue areas, professional fields and business sectors, as well as local, state, and international borders. By highlighting bold new ideas, bringing in new voices with fresh perspectives, breaking down issue and organizational barriers while building up a new field of study, encouraging new research approaches to the next generation of cybersecurity issues, connecting and creating new constituencies, and providing vibrant media and policy platforms to support that creativity, we can aid in pushing forward the cyber policy needed right now and better set us up for success tomorrow.
Prior attempts at cybersecurity have failed. (full stop) Can you guess what the outcome will be from repeating old ideas?

From the post:
The role of the music score is an important one, as a lingua franca – it puts musical information in a format a lot of people can read. And it does that by adhering to standards.
Now with computers, phones, and tablets all over the planet, can music notation adapt?
A new group is working on bringing digital notation as a standard to the Web. The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) – yes, the folks who bring you other Web standards – formed what they're describing as a "community group" to work on notation.
That doesn't mean your next Chrome build will give you lead sheets. W3C are hosting, not endorsing the project – not yet. And there's a lot of work to be done. But many of the necessary players are onboard, which could mean some musically useful progress.
The news arrived in my inbox by way of Hamburg-based Steinberg. That's no surprise; we knew back in 2013 that the core team behind Sibelius had arrived at Steinberg after a reorganization at Avid pushed them out of the company they original started.
The other big player in the group is MakeMusic, developers of Finale. And they're not mincing words: they're transferring the ownership of the MusicXML interchange format to the new, open group:
MakeMusic Transfers MusicXML Development to W3C [musicxml.com]
The next step: make notation work on the Web. Sibelius were, while not the first to put notation on the Web, the first to popularize online sharing as a headline feature in a mainstream notation tool. Sibelius even had a platform for sharing and selling scores, complete with music playback. But that was dependent on a proprietary plug-in – now, the browser is finally catching up, and we can do all of the things Scorch does right in browser.
So, it's time for an open standard. And the basic foundation already exists. The new W3C Music Notation Community Group promises to "maintain and update" two existing standards – MusicXML and the awkwardly-acronym'ed SMuFL (Standard Music Font Layout). Smuffle sounds like a Muppet from Sesame Street, but okay.
For the W3C group: https://www.w3.org/community/music-notation/.
Music notation has a long history across cultures. It will be interesting to see what subset of music notation is captured by this effort.]]>
From the post:
FASTR will go to markup tomorrow in the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee (HSGAC).
Here's a recap of my recent call-to-action post on FASTR, with some new details and background.
FASTR is the strongest bill ever introduced in Congress requiring open access to federally-funded research.
We already have the 2008 NIH policy, but it only covers one agency. We already have the 2013 Obama directive requiring about two dozen federal agencies to adopt OA mandates, but the next President could rescind it.
FASTR would subsume and extend the NIH policy. FASTR would solidify the Obama directive by grounding these agency policies in legislation. Moreover, FASTR would strengthen the NIH policy and Obama directive by requiring reuse rights or open licensing. It has bipartisan support in both the House and the Senate.
FASTR has been introduced in two sessions of Congress (February 2013 and March 2015), and its predecessor, FRPAA (Federal Research Public Access Act), was introduced in three (May 2006, April 2010, February 2012). Neither FASTR nor FRPAA has gotten to the stage of markup and a committee vote. That's why tomorrow's markup is so big.
For the reasons why FASTR is stronger than the Obama directive, see my 2013 article comparing the two.
For steps you can take to support FASTR, see the action pages from the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) and Scholarly Publishing and Academic Resources Coalition (SPARC).
Even though I will be in a day long teleconference tomorrow, I will be contacting my Senators to support FASTR.
How about you?]]>

This is an upcoming feature and is not included yet in the public release.
The IoT (Internet of Things) pinger is a general purpose API consumer intended to aggregate data from several different sources providing data via HTTP. The IoT Panel is found in the Wandora menu bar and presents most of the pinger's configuration options. The Pinger searches the current Topic Map for topics with an occurrence with Source Occurrence Type. Those topics are expected to correspond to an API endpoint defined by corresponding occurrence data. The pinger queries each endpoint every specified time interval and saves the response as an occurrence with Target Occurrence Type. The pinger process can be configured to stop at a set time using the Expires toggle. Save on tick saves the current Topic Map in the specified folder after each tick of the pinger in the form
Now there's an interesting idea!

There is a lot of talk about the need for security for the Internet of Things (IoT) but talk isn't going to keep you secure on the IoT.
Think about it for a moment, the same type of folks that brought you Three Mile Island, exploding Ford Pintos, Chernobyl, Bhopal, Fukushima Daiichi, and the myriad product recalls that litter the daily news, they are going to provide for your security on the IoT?
The time has come and past for liability for software/hardware that allows breaches of security. That is the one remedy that has not been imposed on the computer industry to force the production of more secure code.
If you want your car, SUV, motorcycle, computer, TV, freezer, refrigerator, etc. to be as easy to breach as your Android Phone, say nothing.
If you want some minimal amount of privacy/security in the IoT, call for liability for software/hardware security holes now!]]>

How do you shift a second-hand motor that's seen better days?
Well, take a naff picture of a "chubby" woman draped over the hood of your car, post it on eBay together with a pleading tongue in cheek advert, hope it goes viral and let the tabloid press do the rest.
British couple Murdo Guy and Camilla Banks have managed to attract unbelievable bids of up £153,100 (NZ$303,000) for their battered silver Mercedes saloon after their car advert was picked up by Mail Online and The Sun.
For all those who've wasted entire days decoding the euphemisms dealers use to describe cars on Trade Me, the ad will seem refreshingly honest (as well as alarmingly sexist).
It wastes no time revealing that the car is a banger:
"If you are looking for an immaculate, well maintained example of a Mercedes e320 CDI ... you have come to the wrong place.
"If however, you are low on self esteem, with a strapped budget, but shooting for the stars, welcome to my auction. May I present to you, one of the finest feats in Germanic engineering politely modelled by my 'more to love' missus."
The 12-year-old motor certainly has had a colourful past: "Since owning the vehicle, it has been thrashed, raced, rallied, killed 3 deer, and the interior has been smashed up in a domestic, not to mention the time my wife booted the wing because I suggested she eat a salad or two."
To demonstrate the boot space, Mr Guy, from East Grinstead, West Sussex, posted photos of people in it, including Ms Banks.
Although Mr Guy's ad is tongue in cheek, he is extremely serious about taking bidders' money, and has had to remind them that refunds are not available.
Hopefully, with all the attention he's getting, he'll get a good price (despite the ludicrously high bids, the car is not worth more than $5000). It might not be worth the ridicule he's subjected his partner to. Being called chubby in an eBay ad can be easily brushed off; not so much when you're called chubby in The Sun and the world's biggest website.

Father, daughter dance at Oak Park's Cheney Mansion
Josh Siegel said he knows one day he may have to deal with a "creep with a nose ring" wanting to date one of his three daughters.
But Friday night, he was the only man on the dance cards of his two oldest, Amber 10, and Aeryn, 4, at the daddy-daughter dance sponsored by the Park District of Oak Park at Cheney Mansion.
"As I like to joke, my opinion on the firearms laws have changed," said Siegel, watching as his wife, Beth, fixed the hair of Aeryn before the dance. "For now, it's great fun spending this kind of time with them."
At Cheney Mansion, Siegel watched with delight as his girls ate chocolate-covered strawberries, made Valentine's crafts and learned a dance from a performer portraying Belle from Beauty and the Beast. He even sang the theme song with his daughters.
For Amber, this is her last daddy-daughter dance, and she admitted feeling a bit old for it this year.
Nevertheless, she said, "It's fun hanging out with my dad," then added, "I liked everything but the dancing."
