Philo version 0.9.1 has been released. This release brings performance improvements, an abandonment of built-in tags in favor of Alex Gaynor's django-taggit, and more! If you haven't yet, I highly recommend checking it out.
Since the autumn of 2010, Philo has been powering Oberlin College's new OnCampus portal. For even longer, it has been powering this, my personal website. And now, I'm pleased to announce that Philo version 0.9, our first versioned release, is out. I encourage you to check it out, and perhaps even contribute, if you're at all interested in Python and Django content management systems.
git.ithinksw.org is a pretty nifty site: in addition to providing Gitweb when you access it via a web browser, it also allows cloning of repositories in the same namespace. So, for example, you can visit http://git.ithinksw.org/ITFoundation.git, and receive a Gitweb-generated interface to the repository, but you can also run
git clone http://git.ithinksw.org/ITFoundation.git to clone the repository. tycho is also a fan of Git, and was interested in setting a similar site up for his own repositories, so I've decided to share my configuration here.
Beginning in January, I'd been working to move much of the code we wrote at iThink Software to open source. I'm happy to say that I am now satisfied with the result: a redmine installation, and git repositories.
Haven consists of a daemon (referred to as havend) and a library for communicating with that daemon (referred to as libhaven). Individual computers will run a single instance of havend, and any other software (referred to as client software) running on those computers which requires access to the database utilizes the libhaven library to communicate with the local instance of havend.
At the lowest level, Haven utilizes a document-oriented, schema-less database. I'll use the term "object" where other systems would use "document", to avoid connotations of "document" that are not appropriate at such a low level. Objects have a UUID to define their identity, and an arbitrary number of key/value pairs as content. Key names are informally standardized using reverse-DNS semantics. All objects, once assigned a UUID, are immutable. The immutability of objects referenced by a given UUID allows for the Haven database to be distributed over many, perhaps distant, computers. Ideally, there is only one Haven database (or, object namespace) for all eternity.
I often find myself thinking about how the next great computing environment should function. Although computer hardware has advanced considerably over time, the user-oriented software that allows us access to that hardware's potential has been stuck. We're constantly rehashing the same tired metaphors that were developed decades ago: keyboards, mice, windows, icons, files, applications, clients, servers, users, passwords, and so on. A little more than a year ago, I started thinking about how the computers of the future should store and access data. After much refactoring of my ideas and their consequences, I have settled on a system that I call Haven, which I will be describing in this and later posts. This first post will talk about the sorts of problems that I have attempted to solve.

ELIZABETHTON — A possible creation of a utilities board for Elizabethton and funding for some classroom expansions and an athletic complex for Elizabethton High School were key items for discussion during a workshop session of the Elizabethton City Council on Wednesday.
The Elizabethton City School Board and key administrators of the school system met with the council in the workshop session. They discussed funding alternatives that could allow the city to borrow as much as $7.1 million, using the annual collections from a half percent of the local option sales tax that had been made possible by a 2008 referendum.
Because interest rates are lower now than they were in 2008, a new bond issue could be used to hold funds in place to refund the 2008 bond issue and still provide as much as $7.1 million for new capital projects. The payoff would require the city to commit the half percent sales tax revenue to the school system through the year 2033. The original agreement had been for the school system to receive the sales tax proceeds for 10 years and then the money could be used for other city capital projects.
Assistant Superintendent of Schools Richard VanHuss said the school system would like to build the new athletic complex on the west side of the high school as a "campus completion project."
The complex would include a new football stadium with an artificial turf playing surface, new baseball and softball fields and a regulation-size track.
VanHuss said the athletic facilities were the first stage of the capital improvement projects. He said the athletic facilities had to be first because the second stage called for the demolition of the home stands of Brown-Childress stadium, the school's current football stadium, which is located at T.A. Dugger Jr. High School.
That demolition would make way for an eight-classroom addition to T.A. Dugger, as well as making the school accessible for students with disabilities.
City Manager Jerome Kitchens asked questions about the plan that he said had come from citizens who questioned the priorities. He asked if the T.A. Dugger addition could be built without demolishing the home stands of the old football field.
VanHuss said the footprint for the addition does fit behind the stadium, but it would be such a tight fit that buses could no longer have access to the rear of the school.
Administrators said the home stands were in a serious state of deterioration and would be costly to correct.
The final stage of the capital projects would be to build a new band room at the high school and convert the current band room into more classrooms.
Mayor Curt Alexander advised the board that it should not commit the city and the schools to the whole $7.1 million. He said that would mean the school system would have to commit about $30,000 of its Basic Education Program funds to help pay back the loans. He said there would be no flexibility over the next 20 years in case of other urgent needs, such as replacing a boiler or heating and air conditioning system.
Superintendent Ed Alexander said a catastrophic need would be covered by the system's risk management.
Mayor Alexander asked "can we afford to go as grandiose as we are?" He asked Architect Thomas Weems "to sharpen his pencil," and look for ways to economize.
The Council also heard from Utilities Director Johann Coetzee about forming a utilities board to cover the city's electric, water and sewer services.
He said a board could operate the utilities from a business standpoint and would be able to hold to a long-term vision.
Coetzee said such a business approach would have the objective of building the city's utilities infrastructure so that it has the lowest possible cost to the rate payers. He said that did not include avoiding investments. He said that was like buying a new car and deciding not to spend the money to regularly change the oil. He said that would be a false savings because the car owner would be buying a new engine in five years. He said the city's utilities "are in the forever business. The utilities keep moving into the future."
Coucilwoman Nancy Alsup said "the worst thing the council has ever done was to taken over the electric system,"
Coetzee said the new utilities board would be "the city's property. The City Council has oversight. The council can remove a board member."
Coetzee asked for a first reading of an ordinance creating a new board be held at the next session of the City Council in June.

If you trust what Billie Jean King, Mary Carillo, Dick Enberg, USC Coach Peter Smith and former president of the USTA Franklin Johnson have to say, you'll read this book, and make sure your kids read it too!
How do you give yourself the best chance of winning every time you go on
the court? By playing your best tennis. But, how to do that? There are Eight Golden Rules that when understood and applied give every player their best chance of playing their best. These eight unwritten rules deal with attitude, stress, competition, the zone, and winning.
— Important for every young player of any sport to read.
— As Mary Carillo says: "If you do what Sally suggests you will be more than a better player; you'll be a better person. Perhaps her book should be called Eight Golden Rules for How To Live Your Best Life."
— Charmingly illustrated by Sally Huss.
— Every beginner, intermediate player or touring pro would do well to understand and follow the suggestions in this book.
Dick Enberg, CBS and ESPN Sports:
"Loved the book. I've seen Sally Huss play this great game of tennis. She caressed the ball, while fully embracing the experience. Her style and good form are expressed in her EIGHT GOLDEN RULES FOR HOW TO PLAY YOUR BEST TENNIS. It's an extension of her proven championship play. The message in her book is direct, kind, respectful, and in its wondrous simplicity, as sharp as a backhand winner down the line. If I were to start playing again, I'd be best served to read this book FIRST and then GRIP a racquet. Game, Set, and Match, Ms. Huss! Oh My!"
Billie Jean King, 39 Grand Slam Titles, Founder of World Team Tennis:
"Tennis is a lifetime sport and fun for players of all ages. In Eight Golden Rules for How to Play Your Best Tennis, Sally Huss shows you how to get the most out of your game and how much fun playing tennis can be."
Mary Carillo, CBS and ESPN Sports:
"Sally Huss has written a simple, sparkling gem of a book. It is wise and gentle, and gives to tennis players what the great UCLA coach John Wooden gave to basketball players with his Pyramid of Success. If you do what Sally suggests you will be more than a better player; you'll be a better person. Perhaps her book should be called Eight Golden Rules for How To Live Your Best Life."
Peter Smith, Coach USC Men's Tennis Team:
"Sometimes the best advice is the most simple. Sally writes a book of reminders that everyone can relate to and learn from. These are guidelines and rules that I am already using with my team. I think every successful coach uses these. Let EIGHT GOLDEN RULES be your tennis coach for a winning strategy!

Read Poems by
Logan Saucillo
Before my birth you knew my name
For you are the holder of my fate
Your compassion has extinguished my transgressions
My day of defeat was the day i was born
Because before I knew you my soul had been torn
By unrighteous things that were evil in your eyes
Cleanse my skin from the sin because i firmly believe
That i was unclean the day that i was conceived
Wash away my impurities and purify my soul
And i will be whiter than snow
Cover your eyes from the sins that reap in my bones
And create a heart that destines to be like your own
Do not let me out of your sight
For i have done wrong, and failed to do right
Save me from these spiderwebs
That have entrapped my lost soul
Grant me a willing spirit to teach those who have transgressed
And let my tongue sing righteousness

4-inch touchscreen and slideout QWERTY for all-new workhorse blower.
Nokia is set to pull the wrappers off its new E-series flagship, the E7, at Nokia World next week. The Finnish phone fest kicks off in London on 14 September, with Nokia boss Olli-Pekka Kallsvuo holding a keynote where he'll tote the new handset.
The news comes from a Reuters report which confirms that the device will be on show. The new blower has been the subject of a slew of web gossip. It's said to rock a 4-inch touchscreen and a kick slider like the old-school N97.

With Symbian 3 running under the hood, this is already starting to look like Nokia's number one new phone in the run up to Christmas. The much-hyped N9 is unlikely to surface next week, especially as the N8 is being primed for its long-awaited release.

All Used Up
By Kevin Robey
November 18, 2013
[Verse 1]
Just as messed up as I seem
My ears bleed every night I dream
Gasping every time I breathe
Just turn around and look at me
You may see clarity and sanity
But it's vanity and insanity
Every time that I pass you by
Thinking every smile is another lie
Ran from shadows every day and night
Never did I turn and fight
Ran every day from everything
Now there's nothing left to bring
I'm all used up
I'm all used up…
[Chorus 1]
Can you see me falling apart?
Should've known right from the start
That every deceiving face I show
Leaves me alone, yeah now I know
[Verse 2]
They've moved on, this much I see
No sound as I fall straight to my knees
It makes so much sense I'm finally alone
Facing sunsets every night on my own
This is the world that I blocked out
They wanted me, I was devout
In my beliefs, but now I shout
Lost prophesies so full of doubt
I'm holed up in this empty room
Feels more like my nightly tomb
I'm quiet now, I just gave up
No more drinks, pour out the cup
I'm winding down, but soon I'll dream
Of shiny things from brighter scenes
I'll sleep for a while, and soon I'll call
Cause you won't see me the day I fall
I know my fate
It's way too late...
[Chorus 2]
Can't you see me falling apart?
Always knew this from the start
That every deceiving lie I tell
Leaves me alone, yeah I'm in hell
*listening to...*

(AP) LAFAYETTE, La. - Edmund Reggie, who managed John F. Kennedy's Louisiana campaign and whose daughter later married Sen. Edward Kennedy, has died at his home in Lafayette. He was 87.
His family issued a statement saying Reggie died Tuesday morning, without providing further details.
"We are comforted by his deep faith and memories of his wonderful sense of humor, good nature, sharp mind and the love he gave all of us," son Ed Michael Reggie said in the statement.
Born to immigrant parents from Lebanon, Reggie spent his life in politics, working as a Crowley city judge for 25 years, serving as executive counsel to former Gov. Edwin Edwards and holding other appointed positions in government.
He was an ally of former Gov. Earl Long and campaigned for him, making speeches on Long's behalf around the state. He also helped run successful campaigns for Edwards and former Gov. John McKeithen.
"I'd just like people to look at my career and say, `He tried to help us all do a little better,'" Reggie said in February 2004 when he was inducted into the Louisiana Political Hall of Fame.
According to the Hall of Fame, Reggie became the nation's youngest judge when he was appointed to the position in 1950 at the age of 24 to fill a vacant judgeship. He was then elected to the job repeatedly until he retired in 1976.
He was a close friend of the Kennedy family, after first meeting the future president as a delegate to the 1956 Democratic convention. In 1960, Reggie co-chaired JFK's presidential campaign efforts in Louisiana.
His daughter, Victoria, was married to Sen. Edward Kennedy from 1992 until his death in 2009.
Reggie was fined $30,000 and sentenced to three years' probation in the 1990s after being found guilty in federal court of swapping a loan to real estate brokers from his savings and loan for a promise from the brokers to buy land from another of his business ventures.
Reggie is survived by his wife, six children, 11 grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. His funeral will be held Friday at St. Michael the Archangel Catholic Church in Crowley.

|No. of episodes
|Original channel
|The WB
|Original release
|October 7, 1998– May 26, 1999
The first season of Charmed, an American supernatural drama television series created by Constance M. Burge, premiered on October 7, 1998 on The WB. Airing on Wednesdays at 9:00 pm, the season consisted of 22 episodes and concluded its airing on May 26, 1999. Paramount Home Entertainment released the complete first season in a six-disc box set on February 1, 2005.
The Halliwell sisters discover that they are descendants of a long line of witches when they inherit a house from their grandmother and find the family's Book of Shadows. They learn that they each have a unique power. The strong-willed Prue Halliwell (Shannen Doherty) can move objects with her mind, reserved Piper Halliwell (Holly Marie Combs) is able to freeze time, and the uninhibited Phoebe Halliwell (Alyssa Milano) sees the future. Together they have the "Power of Three", which they must use to fight demons and warlocks, and protect the innocent.
Each episode contains a personal storyline alongside a magical one, showing the bond between the sisters and the troubles that being witches could cause in their 'normal' lives. These story lines often brought the sisters to an innocent in need of protection or a demon whom they must destroy. Several episodes also centred around the Halliwell sisters understanding and learning about their magical heritage.

Fallon kills Billy and tries to kill Andy, but Prue and Phoebe go after her with a flare gun as fire is the Wendigo's weakness. Piper shows up as well and they nearly accidentally vanquish her instead, but she freezes the flare and Prue sends it into Fallon, killing her and curing Piper.

|The beginning of this episode has Phoebe experiencing a powerful and deadly premonition of death at Halliwell manor which includes Inspector Rodriguez unmasked in a demon attack on the sisters, resulting in the killing of Andy. Vowing to prevent Andy's death, Prue heads off to police headquarters to warn Andy that Rodriguez is a demon working undercover for evil. As the demon makes plans for his attempt to kill the Charmed Ones, he receives a visit from Tempus (David Carradine), a demon who can turn back time that was sent by The Source to help Rodriguez in case he fails. Tempus rewinds time each time Rodriguez fails to kill the Charmed Ones until the warlock succeeds in killing all the sisters. Andy Trudeau is waiting in his car, after being told by Prue to stay away because it was dangerous. He sees Rodriguez entering the house and goes in to protect Prue. Andy bursts in before Rodriguez can harm the sisters and attempts to shoot him, but Rodriguez fires an energy ball at Andy, killing him. Piper freezes Rodriguez and she and Phoebe are shocked to find Andy dead. Prue receives a vision from the spirit of the now deceased Andy, which helps her to move on. The sisters vanquish Rodriguez and attend Andy's funeral.

Milos won the biggest title of his career to date as he lifted the ATP World Tour 500 trophy at the Citi Open in Washington, D.C. on Sunday. In the first all-Canadian final in the Open Era, Milos defeated Vasek Pospisil 6-1, 6-4 to end the week without the loss of a set.
Victory marked the sixth ATP World Tour title of Milos' career and will see him return to a career-high World No. 6 in the Emirates ATP Rankings on Monday.
"It's great the way it started. I couldn't have asked, really, for more," reflected Milos. "I had a chance to break in every single game in that first set. Then I continued to play solid after that. All in all, a very good performance and an important moment for me. I think I'm playing at a high level. I think the number I have beside my name is not a coincidence."
Next up for Milos is a homecoming at the Rogers Cup in Toronto, which begins on Monday. A finalist in Montreal last year, Milos is seeded sixth at the ATP World Tour Masters 1000 tournament and will open his campaign against either Jack Sock or Jurgen Melzer.

Oldham manager Lee Johnson has called for unity at the club in the wake of one of their players being arrested in relation to alleged spot-fixing in English football.
The club have confirmed that winger Cristian Montano was one of six players arrested as part of a National Crime Agency (NCA) investigation following claims by The Sun newspaper that a Championship game had been affected by fixing. He has subsequently been suspended without pay while the investigation is ongoing, the club said.
Blackburn striker DJ Campbell is also among those to be arrested, his club confirmed. Five of the six players have now been bailed until April 2014.
Asked about Montano's involvement, Johnson told Oldham's official club website, oldhamathletic.co.uk: "Anybody who saw that report will have been devastated and sick to their stomachs.
"However, we have to let the authorities do their job and duties, and we cannot prejudice that.
"The reason why I am in (the game) is because there are so many great people around the place and who are giving everything to the cause.
"There is a lot to celebrate about this club, and we have to make sure we don't forget that."
Johnson added the club will have to wait for the results of the investigation before they can determine Montano's future.
He added: "It is disappointing how somebody can get themselves into that situation.
"The truth is that we don't know yet what has happened for him to be in the room talking about that.
"I feel we have to step back and, as manager, it is my job to rally the troops and I am sure the players have that desire for three important games in the next 10 days."

In physics, potential energy is the energy of a body or a system due to the position of the body or the arrangement of the particles of the system. The SI unit for measuring work and energy is the Joule (symbol J).
The term "potential energy" was coined by the 19th century Scottish engineer and physicist William Rankine.
Potential energy is closely linked with forces. If the work done moving along a path which starts and ends in the same location is zero, then the force is said to be conservative and it is possible to define a numerical value of potential associated with every point in space. A force field can be re-obtained by taking the negative of the vector gradient of the potential field.

Mac Specs: Back to my old 2.2GHz C2D MB after selling my MBP and wondering what my next Mac will be :)
I solved this by using mac pilot.
The steps I took were as follows:
1)I clicked tools in the mac pilot menu
2)I clicked files and folders in the left pane window
3)Scrolled down to "wipe access control list data", and then chose Macintosh HD
4)Once completed, I booted from the install disc, and from the utility menu, chose reset pass word for Macintosh HD, and at the the bottom of the box clicked Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs
Upon completion and restarting the computer, I then ran permission repairs in disk utility, and all the ACL found but not expected messages were gone, leaving only the 2 "Suid file warnings" that kept coming up!
ACL found but not expected on "private/etc/apache2/users"
Repaired "private/etc/apache2/users"
ACL found but not expected on "private/etc/postfix/main.cf"
Repaired "private/etc/postfix/main.cf"
ACL found but not expected on "private/etc/postfix/main.cf.default"
Repaired "private/etc/postfix/main.cf.default"
ACL found but not expected on "Library/Preferences/Audio"
Repaired "Library/Preferences/Audio"
Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAgent" has been modified and will not be repaired
ACL found but not expected on "System/Library/Keychains/X509Anchors"
Repaired "System/Library/Keychains/X509Anchors"
Warning: SUID file "System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/DesktopServicesPriv.framework/Versions/A/Resources/Locum" has been modified and will not be repaired
ACL found but not expected on "private/var/db/launchd.db/com.apple.launchd"
Repaired "private/var/db/launchd.db/com.apple.launchd"
ACL found but not expected on "private/var/yp/binding"
Repaired "private/var/yp/binding
I hope this has been of help to all with the ACL messages frustrating them
PS If I work out how to take care of the "suid file warnings" that keep coming up, I will post it too

Indonesia has set a modest target of two bronze medals at the inaugural Youth Olympic Games, with weightlifting and badminton seen as the country's best chances for a podium finish.
The country has sent 14 athletes to the Games, which open on Saturday and run until Aug. 26, but only two are seen as serious medal contenders.
The Indonesian Badminton Association (PBSI) has said that Evert Sukamta could secure a podium finish, while the Indonesian Weightlifting, Bodybuilding and Powerlifting Association (Pabbsi) likes Dewi Safitri's chances of winning a medal.
Eighteen-year-old Evert, who qualified for the Youth Olympics after finishing in the top five at the Asian under-19 championships in March, will be going for gold in boys' singles.
Dewi will compete in the girls' 53-kilogram division. The 17-year-old booked a spot in the Singapore Games after finishing third at the Asian youth championships in April 2009.
Djoko Pramono, head of the Olympic Solidarity Commission at the Indonesia Olympic Committee (KOI), said officials were tempering expectations because of the quality of the opposition.
"We didn't set any clear goals because the competition will be tough," Djoko said on Friday.
The other athletes who will compete in Singapore are: Erlina Safitri (archery); Renna Suwarno (badminton); Elga Kharisma, Destian Satria, Suherman and Ongky Setiawan (cycling); Fibriani Ratna Marita, Pratama Siahaan and Patricia Yosita (swimming); Macho V Hungan (taekwondo); Grace Sari Ysidora (tennis); and Zainuddin (weightlifting).
Renna was given a spot on the squad after China was forced to drop one shuttler from its team because it had already filled its official quota.
Zainuddin made the team when he replaced another Indonesian lifter, Sumaryanto, who was found to be below the minimum age requirement. Sumaryanto, 15, was ruled ineligible because he was a year too young.
The three swimmers on the squad — Fibriani, Pratama and Patricia — qualified for the Youth Olympics after posting impressive results at the Singapore National Age Group Championships in March.
Elga, who will compete in the BMX event, secured a berth during a BMX and mountain-bike event in Singapore in May, while Destian, Suherman and Ongky received wild cards from the world cycling federation last month.
Erlina, Macho and Grace were also given wild cards by their respective international federations.
Meanwhile, the president of the Indonesia National Sports Committee (KONI), Rita Subowo, said officials were already looking ahead to two major junior tournaments — the Asian Youth Games in Incheon, South Korea, in 2013 and the next Youth Olympics, in Nanjing, China, in 2014.
"We want to send more athletes to these competitions, which is why we've begun our search for young athletes with potential," Rita said.

Co-stars and rumored-couple Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart have been hopping all over Manhattan the last couple days wrapping up their press tour for New Moon. The pair has consistently tip-toed around the question on the tip of every interviewer's tongue; whether their steamy onscreen relationship has seeped into their personal lives. Despite leaving Twi-hards with nothing but paparazzi shots of hand-holding and OK! magazine covers to debate, their interviews have proven them to be very likable and amazingly unaffected by their phenomenal fame.
On the "Today Show" this morning, RPattz confirmed every tabloid rumor ever, telling Matt Lauer that in the last year, he's been engaged, dated constantly, overdosed on drugs, and dated someone named "Listten Hewert." Before and after the interview, he graciously signed autographs and took photos with the crazed fans that had occupied Rockefeller Center for over 24 hours. See clip above.
After the jump, see Kristen Stewart spill the beans to Jimmy Fallon about Martha Stewart's crush on Pattinson and toss a football around. We've also rounded up Rob's appearance on Letterman last night, as well as Kristen on the "Today Show" yesterday.
In the clip above, Kristen discusses her pie-making skills, her chat with Martha Stewart, and her encounter with camels in NYC.
Fallon then challenged Stewart to demonstrate her football throwing skills, which had been raved about by co-star Taylor Lautner.
On "The Late Show With David Letterman," Pattinson discussed biting his fans, including a Twi-hard baby.

A tired and sick KStew had a casual chat with the "Today Show" about her character Bella and film endeavors outside the realm of Twilight.

Viewers: in countries Watching now:
This course is a gateway to learning software version control (SVC), process management, and collaboration techniques. Author Michael Lehman reviews the history of version control and demonstrates the fundamental concepts: check-in/checkout, forking, merging, commits, and distribution. The choice of an SVC system is critical to effectively managing and versioning the assets in a software development project (from source code, images, and compiled binaries to installation packages), so the course also surveys the solutions available. Michael examines Git, Perforce, Subversion, Mercurial, and Microsoft Team Foundation Server (TFS) in particular, describing the appropriate use, features, benefits, and optimal group size for each one.
Before we begin using the modern Version Control Systems, a little bit of history is worth looking at. The first Version Control System was created in 1972 at Bell Labs where they developed UNIX. The first one was called SCCS. It was available only for UNIX and only worked with Source Code files. Ten years later the Revision Control System, or RCS, was developed, and it was the first cross-platform version control system, but once again, it was only for text files. Both SCCS and RCS only worked on the development system and were not for sharing code, as they only worked for a single user.
The next wave of Version Control Software-- what we call Centralized Version Control-- was developed starting in 1986. The Concurrent Versions System, or CVS, was the first one that had a central repository and was usable by multiple users. It was still file-focused and kept track of changes in individual files, as opposed to keeping track of changes in entire directory trees. Later on in the 1980s, along came Perforce, and it was widely used during the .com era. It's still the biggest repository used inside Google.
In 2000, a new product called Subversion was created and supported non-text files, tracking directory structure changes, such as file renames and moves, and its transaction unit was the directory as opposed to an individual file. So you could check in an entire directory tree and check it out. In 2004, Microsoft created the Team Foundation Server to replace its aging Visual SourceSafe Version Control System, which was primarily a client server system. TFS comes with an MSDN subscription, which means it's fairly expensive.
But it also has a TFS Express edition which is usable for up to I believe 5 users. TFS has tight Visual Studio integration. That means you can check in and check out right from inside Visual Studio. It supports not only source code control, but also has bug and work item tracking and features for doing automated testing. The next generation of source code control software is called Distributed Source Code Control. Distributed Source Code Control is different in that there's not a central server that everybody shares. Everybody shares their own individual repository and then can share their changes with a central server or share their changes with individual users.
Distributed Source Code Control came about because of a change in licensing from a company called BitKeeper. Previously, they had a product which was used by Linus Torvalds and the kernel group on Linux that was called the Community Edition, and it was free. But in 2005, BitKeeper decided to make its entire product line commercial only, meaning you had to pay a fee for using it, and Linus decided that he wanted to make sure that everything around Linux was free, and so he created something called Git. It's broadly used in conjunction with something called GitHub which is an online cloud-based service which offers free hosting for open-source projects and also commercial hosting for private use.
A competing product Mercurial was also created in 2005 in response to the same BitKeeper change and is also widely used in open source projects. That's a short history of Version Control from 1972 to 2012. These days, pretty much everybody uses one of five systems, Perforce, Subversion, or TFS if they want a centralized system, Git or Mercurial if they want a distributed system. And now that we have looked at the history, let's move on to looking at a little bit more details about the terminology that we need to understand, and a walk-through about how centralized and distributed systems work.

yep, opened in November of 1990. i remember they were showing free movies that weekend. I watched problem child and flatliners.
Unfortunately the first update to this theatre in almost 4 years is regarding a robbery that took place at this venue Friday night (3/28/14)
"Authorities say the unidentified man walked into the AMC Marple 10 theater in Delaware County at about 11 p.m. Friday night. The man allegedly took $600 from the registers and fled the theater within seconds. Police say a security guard followed the man into the parking lot and fired shots after the robber pointed a gun at him. Authorities believe one of the shots may have hit the car, which had two other men inside."

WILLIAMSON - Hamlin-Public transit systems around the state will offer riders some financial relief in honor of the State of West Virginia's 150th birthday celebration by reducing their rates for a day.
Tri River Transit will reduce its fare to .50 cents on Thursday, June 20th, with the normal rate being $1. During this special celebration, the Tri River Transit encourages everyone to take advantage of the reduced rates and hop a bus.
West Virginians and visitors to our state depend on public transportation every day for work, business, recreation, shopping, and access to education or medical services. It enriches communities by providing safe, affordable transportation and is important to the economic vitality of the state. The state's public transit ridership totaled seven million for the 2012 fiscal year.
The public transportation buses have been serving the public in Mingo County for approximately 4 years. Numerous citizens within the county depend on the buses for transportation to doctor's appointments, grocery store shopping and taking care of personal business such as banking, plus many other reasons.
"We're very appreciative to have the transit system in Mingo County," stated County Commissioner Dave Baisden. "Anything we can do to help accommodate our residents and make their lives easier is at the top of our priority list."
For more information on the transit bus schedule, which is in Mingo County four days a week (Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday), you may contact the Executive Director of Tri-River Transit (Paula Smith), at 304-824-2944. You are also encouraged to visit their newly revamped website at tririver.org to view a complete bus schedule. There is an app for smartphones on the website if you are interested in acquiring it for your personal use.

I Vape. I do not Smoke. What's So Hard To Understand?
I have several friends that used to think I was crazy. Sure, they had, and have, some very good reasons to think so. I mean I have 5 cats for God's sake. But, because I quit smoking way back in 1992 and took up vaping in 2011 they shake their heads in disbelief, like I've started smoking again. For all the effort I have made to see that they understand that smoking is smoking, and vaping is vaping, they just don't see it. All they can see is my inhaling something and exhaling something that looks a lot like smoke.
Even some pro-vaping people look at vaping as another form of smoking. Trying to convince someone that vaping is something entirely different than smoking is damn near impossible.
And you know, at first glance it's easy to look at someone vaping and immediately think that person is smoking. Vapor from an eCigarette is nearly identical to smoke, to the naked eye anyway, and a Vaper does bring something up to their lips, inhales vapor, and then exhales vapor disguised as smoke. Hell, its not just "first glance", it's the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and so on 'glance'. It does look like smoking, but its not
So what is "smoking" then?
All my life I've considered a smoker to be someone that burns tobacco, either in the form of a cigarette, or a cigar, or even a pipe. In order to get smoke you have to burn something. When someone puts a cigarette, cigar, or pipe in their mouth it's usually followed by the use of lighter, and then using that lighter to start a controlled burn of the tobacco.
Am I missing something here? I mean, if you see someone in the process of using snuff, or chewing tobacco, you don't consider them to be smoking, right? Although you do consider them to be using tobacco. Yet, smoking a cigarette, pipe, or cigar is a thousand times closer to chewing tobacco and snuff (am I spelling that right?) because it's all tobacco.
Vaping, on the other hand, has nothing to do with tobacco. In fact, I would venture to say that if its nicotine that's the excuse as to why people relate vaping and tobacco use then I submit that vaping is just as related to eating broccoli. Broccoli has nicotine, the same chemical makeup of nicotine that the tobacco plant has, so what's the difference?
Then, there is that segment of the vaping community that sticks to zero-nicotine eJuice. Are they also using a 'tobacco related' product?
The entire argument that resulted in the FDA controlling the electronic cigarette in the same category as tobacco is a false one. Yet, people inside and outside the vaping community have allowed the FDA to continue to classify eCigarettes as 'tobacco related' despite the fact the tobacco has nothing to do with vaping
It is wrong to allow perception to rule the day. No matter what the issue is, whether its electronic cigarettes or building a birdcage, the wrong perception should not dictate policy.
Over Eighteen
I don't know anyone who will say that eCigarettes should be allowed to be sold to people under 18. Everyone agrees that they shouldn't be sold to minors. But why? Why shouldn't minors have access to eCigarettes? Cannot a twelve year old walk into a Starbucks and buy a triple latte? Do you know how much caffeine is in a triple latte? 231MG! Yet, you don't see any restrictions on the under 18 crowd.
So, if nicotine is no more harmful than caffeine does it not follow that since childred are allowed to buy coffee they should be allowed to consume nicotine. Again, Brocoli has nicotine in it, so do we ban kids from eating their broccoli? Do you know that there is such a thing called Broccoli cigarettes?
One of the main reasons against allowing kids access to eCigarettes is that it can lead to using real cigarettes. Now think about that for a minute. Think about the vaping community and how we love to collect different vaping hardware and accessories, trying our different eJuice flavors, experiment in making our own, things like that. Now think about some kid, say 16, getting into vaping, discovering all the cool things we've discovered about vaping, and then deciding to chuck it all in favor of picking up something that cost 5 times as much, is 1000 times more dangerous, and makes you smell like garbage. Do you really think this kid is going to find tobacco cigarettes sexy enough to ditch his eCigarettes? Not a chance.
So it all comes down to perception. And the perception here is wrong. Using tobacco, in any form, is not even closely related to vaping, it only appears that way. The perception is out of whack.
Here's why
Every person that thinks that I did something really stupid by taking up vaping is a coffee drinker. Some are heavy coffee drinkers. You know, the ones that have a "fresh pot" going all the time, night and day. None of my friends have strict diets, and all of them have been known to kick back with beer and pizza. They don't have the healthy lifestyle they think they do. So hammering me over the fact that I enjoy eCigarettes is a bit confusing. In any case, I thought it might be a good idea to write about some concerns I have about what I think is 'overreaching' by others when they interfere with our right to enjoy the eCigarette.
Dangerous? The Truth About Nicotine And eCigs
Nicotine has been scientifically evaluated and found to be no more harmful than caffeine, unless you're pregnant. Both caffeine and nicotine are addictive, yes, but nicotine has been found to be an effective treatment for Alzheimer's disease. (http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2010/10/101013095331.htm)
In addition, nicotine is created naturally in the body, and is found in certain plants and vegetables. My point is nicotine is not a synthetic poison, that it has a bad rap that comes from being a primary agent in cigarettes and cigars and other forms of tobacco. Nicotine causes you to feel less stress, less anxiety, and, in my case at least, suppresses my appetite. I've lost 25 pounds since taking up vaping, not enough (yet) but it's a start. A don't want to guide this piece into the benefits of nicotine, but there ARE benefits.
The Truth (so far) about eCigarettes
There seems to be a panic in some people about the sudden attention to eCigarettes this year. Many people and many companies are responsible for this uptick in attention and sales, (Spinfuel has played a part in this by calling 2012 the "Year of the eCigarette" back in January, and determining that eCigs would hit "critical mass" in 2012. We were right on both). This panic is so fraught with false information, AstroTurf Protesting by militant anti-smoking organizations, and both private citizens and organized government, and just plain old wrong-headed types that are always against change or against things they don't like.
Most of all the attacks on the eCigarettes come from people in power, from small town selectmen and mayors, governors, and senators and congressman (both local and federal), who believe they know better than you do about what is good for you and what is bad for you. They want to make sure you're living right (what they think is right), even if it strips you of any decision in your own affairs. In other words; the Nanny-State. It's here folks, and if we allow it to continue it's going to get worse.
Just look at Mayor Bloomberg and his 'large sugared soft drinks' ban and his audacious hypocrite bullshit in which, just this morning, he stands along side of a Dunkin Donuts to name today "Donut Day" or some such crap. Check out this news report; http://politicker.com/2012/05/mixed-message-with-soda-ban-and-national-donut-day-endorsements-video/ . I call this unmitigated gall. Of course Bloomberg sees nothing wrong here. This guy is the perfect example of a true socialist in a progressive-republican disguise. Personally, Bloomberg's actions to take away personal freedoms in the name of "we know best" disgusts me
Even in Australia
Australia, the entire country mind you, has banned the sale of eCigarettes; http://www.gizmodo.com.au/2009/01/e-cigarettes_are_banned_in_australia/ (by the way, the opinion of Nick Broughall is spot on). This remark by Health Minister Nicola Roxon, "This looks like another insidious, manipulative attempt to hook people on smoking," drives me batshit crazy.
Since when is this crap the business of ANY government? And what happened to Australia being "Americans on Steroids" country (meaning that Australians are to epitome of tough, freedom-loving people that wouldn't think of allowing anyone to tell them what to do.) We Americans, dating back to the 70's and 80's, wouldn't stand for such interference in our lives that we live with today.
Back In the USA
All these towns, cities, states, as well as the feds, attempting to put bans on eCigarettes while allowing the sale of REAL cigarettes to continue unabated is just mindboggling. On the one hand you have these attempts to take control away from you because they know better than you, and on the other hand you have these same politicians depending on tax revenues that tobacco users send to the government. Only a true polictian can balance these two diametrically opposing views at the same time and not even realize they're doing it.
Yesterday two very important scientists at the "American Council On Science And Health", Dr Elizabeth Whelan and Gilbert Ross published an open letter to the FDA urging the FDA to reverse its stance on eCigarettes. The information contained therein is timely, truthful, and reasonable. Read it here, http://www.acsh.org/news/newsID.1995/news_detail.asp
Despite the serious lack of evidence that vaping is harmful the bans continue and people that choose to vape are directly affected.
An Unspoken Truth
There are people like myself, a lot of them, that "vape" because we enjoy it. Many, if not most, people that use eCigarettes have no intention of quitting unless the governments' are able to tax the hell out of them so that they cost the same as real cigarettes. I originally quit smoking because of the taxes on them and if eCigarettes are taxed the same way I'll stop vaping as well, or find a way to launch an underground 'vaping communtiy' much like the speakeasys back during the prohibition days.
I'm not at all concerned about nicotine because nicotine is no worse than caffeine. I'm not the only ex-smoker with more than a few years between vaping and their last cigarette who have taken up vaping because they; A) We missed the pleasures of smoking, and B) We missed the pleasures of smoking…

Kevin Ware Keeps Getting Free Gifts, NCAA Won't Allow It
Kevin Ware is one of the most courageous college athletes to ever have ever graced and NCAA stage. The gruesome injury which he sustained during this year's tournament would have literally ruined any other person's life. However not only did he refuse to shed a single tear and urge his teammates to keep playing, but he persevered and inspired his Louisville family to go out and win the national championship.
And as you would imagine, the out pour of love and support he's received has been tremendous. So much so in fact that the NCAA is now regulating the amount of gifts he' been receiving through the school's mail. Damn party poopers.
Their athletic office is literally flooded with letters with everything from money, to gift cards, and video games. So why can't Kevin have any of these things that were sent to his name? Because it violates NCAA code of course. F*ck the NCAA.
So all of those free iTunes, food and other things broke college kids need cannot be accepted. Just great. I know those are the rules but there must be an exception in some cases. You're telling me that I can't accept some fresh baked chocolate chip cookies if someone sends it to me? FOH.
Kevin is focused on returning to the same stage where he fell but playing a much larger role in the team's outcome. With Russ Smith returning alongside, the Cardinal are looking more dangerous than ever.

~Deep Dark Poem~
Tonight I want to go deeper in my soul
I want to be born again tonight I want
to go back in my mothers womb and feel
my happiness of my first cry yet feel her
real pain while she was delivering me
I want to feel both all her pain and the
little of happiness I had since I was born.
I want to feel each breath I breathed since
that first night I want to see my fathers
eyes if he had a tear of happiness while
holding me for the first time .
I want to walk talk laugh cry climb defeat
succeed breath suffocate scream eat drink
revive my senses I want to hold her breast
and be a baby again I don't want to grow
Old yet I want to remain a new born in her
arms to feel safe I want to hold my fathers
glasses and see the color of his eyes will I
have them will I have his nose will I have
my mothers softness will I cry for help will
I see and hear and listen and run and walk
and hold her hand to feel safe I am lost
tonight I need her grip.
I need my brother who carried me where is
he today why did he leave me so early and
die so young I want to eat with them I want
to share with them in what state of mind
I am in tonight I want to go home tonight
to my mother and fathers home I want to
see their light at their home as I am living
through my darkest hours tonight.
But I cannot as all what I want
I cannot have.
I want their faithful love I want to sleep
on their bed and feel the warmth of their
love in our home where I was born and
after years I was torn away from them
to live in another mans home.
They forgot to tell me how much they
have suffered when I left their home and
went away they forgot to tell me so many
things that iI am experiencing them now
today yesterday and tomorrow my life
passed away so quickly busy bringing up
my kids busy giving them an education
busy cooking for them busy working to
provide for them everything busy washing
busy crying busy going out busy busy where
are they now where was I when my father
left to climb up his ladder where was I
when my mothers turn arrived to climb up her
ladder and stay next to him they went up to
meet their son who left them years ago he
was only 29 years old they had to live suffering
suffering missing missing him their first born
for years and years.
Father of my 2 boys thee only ecstasy
I had during that marriage nothing was
real except my kids nothing existed except
them nothing meant anything in my world
except them nothing ever passed before
them they are my light when i am blind
they are my laughter in my inside they
are with me with every breath I breath
we are inseparable even when they are
far I see them when its dark I see them
when I am deaf I hear them through my
strength I survive to keep them alive.
I walk alone yet their shadow never
leaves my sight they call my name from
far I call them back I write to reach out
for them to read through my lines how
much I need to be cared for even one day
maybe half a day maybe a few hours even
one second is more then enough to pump
my heart to go on.
So sorry my fellow poets tonight when
you read through my lines you will forgive
me as I am sentimentally in pain affectionately
in pain tonight my pen was agonizing missing
my children missing to see them how do I survive
daily without them I don't know I know I have
been doing that for the past 35 years seeing
them on and off due to the war in our country
& unexplainable circumstances.
Tonight forgive me. I have no more tears.

An Oklahoma teen becomes addicted to tobacco every 95 minutes, due in large part to the tobacco industry's decades-long practice of targeting young people through crafty advertising.
More than 90 percent of surveyed tobacco users said they started as teenagers, and the state figures mirror national findings released this month in a U.S. Surgeon's General report on tobacco use among youths and young adults.
Surgeon General Regina Benjamin started her report summary with a blunt conclusion: "Nearly all tobacco use begins during youth and young adulthood."
Antlers received $100,136 in sales tax disbursements in February, an increase over the $95,522 received in February of last year. Antlers also received a use tax disbursement of $5,352 in February, down from the $6,184 received in February of last year.
Clayton received a $40,416 sales tax disbursement in February, up from the $29,059 received in February of 2011.
Rattan received a sales tax disbursement of $1,530 in February, a decrease from the $2,116 received last February.
All last week the Pushmataha County Courthouse played host to the second of four trials of individuals charged with the murder of Robert Strickland of Hugo. This crime took place in April of 2010 and crime scenes were located in Choctaw, McCurtain and Pushmataha Counties. Twelve O.S.B.I. Agents and over 30 law enforcement officers, belonging to multiple agencies in the three counties, were involved in these investigation.
Signaling a changing of the seasons, Mother Nature battered north Texas and much of eastern Oklahoma on Monday and Tuesday, creating flooding conditions in many areas. Including Dumpling Creek, near Antlers on Ethel Road, where an unfortunate motorist got swept away in the rising water.
The Bearcats split a double header Friday night picking up a win against Clayton and a loss to Atoka.
Starting out against the Bulldogs in the 1st inning with two catches by center fielder, Chandon Draper and a strike out by pitcher Dakota Turner the Bearcats were off to a good start. Offensively the Bearcats would score 3 runs with a double hit by Bryce Martin and single from Turner, Drew McKnight, and Arizona Taylor. Draper would draw a walk.
On the evening of March 17, 2012, a new Miss RHS was chosen after a magnificent night full of excitement!
