Jeremy Guthrie seems to be at his worst against the Yankees. I don't know if it's Girardi getting in his head around the HBPs or if it's just the long history of losing over the years, but he just seemed out of sync against them today as well as the starts earlier in the season (although I guess the 2nd start wasn't TOO bad). It brings up questions about his competitive fire.
Maybe it's me, but he seems like a nice guy and I wonder if the Girardi comments affected him. Pitching is all about confidence, but sometimes you have to generate it yourself and not be suckered by the gamesmanship. Can you imagine if Girardi made those comments about Roger Clemens? The first pitch would be in Jeter's ear on purpose and he would just glower into the Yankee dugout as if to say "keep f--king talking". Clemens wasn't a "good guy", but he's the guy I'd want out there in the must win game and the last guy I'd ever want to give "bulletin board material" to.
I like Guthrie, but if this were fight or flight, he is always"flight". It's almost like he needs someone with that fire to come in and teach him how to get pissed at the Yankees.

|Quate Stands Tall In Montgomery
|Written by Mike Kelly
|Tuesday, 17 May 2011 13:43
Former Appalachian State baseball player Zach Quate continues his march towards the Major Leagues.Quate, who was selected by the Tampa Bay Rays in the 14th round of the MLB draft in 2009, has slowly worked his way up the minor-league ladder. He is currently a member of the Montgomery Biscuits of the Class AA Southern League.
In 15 games this season, Quate, who got off to a slow start, has picked it up of late. Quate is 2-1 with a 3.05 earned-run-average with six saves. In 20 2/3 innings of work, he has given up seven earned runs, he's walked two men with 17 strike outs.
In his professional career, Quate has appeared in 82 minor-league games, he's 4-3 with a 1.18 ERA with 44 saves. In 119 innings, he's given up 20 earned runs, and his strike out-to-walk-ratio is phenomenal---141 strike outs to just 24 walks.
Quate was named the best relief pitcher in the Rays organization in 2010. He was 2-2 that season with a 1.49 ERA and an organizational-high 25 saves while playing for Class A Advanced Charlotte Stone Crabs in the Florida State League. He was also named a mid-season and post-season all-star in the Florida State League.
Quate also set a school record with 11 saves his senior year at ASU, but that record was broken by Chris Patterson (currently in the St. Louis Cardinals organization) last season.
Former Georgia Southern pitcher Everett Teaford has been called up to the big leagues by the Kansas City Royals. Teaford, a two-time first-team All-Southern Conference selection, was 2-1 with a 3.04 ERA at Triple-A Omaha of the Pacific Coast League.
Former Watauga High baseball player Johnny Greene is off to a strong start with the Frisco Roughriders of the Texas League. He's hitting .302 with four home runs and 15 RBI through the first 32 games of the season. Greene, who set a school record with 11 home runs during his senior year at WHS in 2004, has a .483 sluggling percentage, an 869 on-base percentage. Frisco is the Double-A affiliate of the Texas Rangers. For his career, Greene is a .249 hitter with 69 home runs. The only drawback, he has struck out 456 times. Greene played his college baseball at Western Carolina. He was selected by the Rangers in the eighth round of the MLB draft in 2007. Greene also been named a mid-season all-star (2008) and a post-season all-star (2007), and he's earned player of the week honors on two seperate occasions (in 2008 and 2009).

Well I would just use the GetWineX script as it does everythign for you and gives you 2.1 which is a good working version for alot of games
Do a search around here somewhere, it tells you the difference between the winex and the winex 2.0 or whatever the new version is. But, the pet will give you the winex version.
Well I would just use the GetWineX script as it does everythign for you and gives you 2.1 which is a good working version for alot of games
I think from what I've read is that when you get the packages from transgaming it installs it as wine, but makes a simlink to winex. I could be wrong, but its something like that. It either simlinks it, or moves it totally. Whenever I have used the cvs from transgaming I only get wine. The commands are exactly the same just different names, so it doesn't matter which one you use.
I loaded the cvs version some time ago from the original post at that other forum
The command that worked from that install was:
wine --winver -win98 /bla/bla/foo.exe
Ever thing installs fine nothing works lol ;D
Last evening on my home box, I discovered what the deal is with winex and what is called what. When you get the paid package from Transgaming, it will install a symlink from /usr/local/transgaming/bin/wine to /usr/bin/winex (or whatever the paths are). Thats why I and a few others who pay for WineX get a winex command, whereas others just get wine.

By STEVEN C. BARROWESSalt Lake
I agree with the Sierra Club and the Grand Canyon Trust in objecting to new coal-fired power plants near Lynndyl, Millard County, and Sigurd, Sevier County.
I also want to stop the added pollution these would bring, even though they would be among the cleanest coal-fired plants in the U.S.
Does this sound like half an enviro plan? It would stop the added pollution but would not provide the electrical power that is needed. And we can be assured the power is needed or these plants wouldn't be proposed at a combined cost of two billion dollars.
To make a complete plan, avoiding the pollution while providing the electric power, they should build nuclear power plants. In 50 years of nuclear operations, no harm has come to U.S. persons or the environment. Compare with U.S. coal plants which kill 30,000 per year, according to air pollution studies by C. Arden Pope at BYU. The most deadly coal emissions are apparently the PM2.5, or particles down to 2.5 microns in size, the hardest ones to remove.
The choice is clear: scores of Utah air pollution deaths each year plus daily haze, versus no deaths.

I think that Carnaval should become a official Pastafarian holiday. In the christian faith it's to celebrate the last days before Ash Wednesday from the sunday before up until the Wednesday, in the Netherlands it goes with dressing up and many people do it as pirate. And with lots and lots of beer. that sounds to me like a perfect Pastafarian holiday.
Since we all have such flimsy moral standards i ask you join in and celebrate his Noodelyness on 19 t/m 21 February by dressing in your best pirate regalia and drink lots of beer

The quality of data can make the difference between business success and failure. When unmanaged, bad data deteriorates even further, which in turn affects business agility. And for those in regulated industries, bad data can lead to policy breaches and a potentially hefty fine. Data quality solutions from Informatica transform data quality from liability to competitive advantage.
Gartner predicts that by 2017, 33% of Fortune 100 companies will experience information crises due to their inability to adequately value, govern and trust their enterprise information.
Source: Gartner Predicts 2014: Information Governance and MDM Are Critical for Digital Transformation, Analyst(s): Saul Judah, Bill O'Kane, Andrew White, Ted Friedman, Debra Logan, November 22nd, 2013
Regardless of your data location, volume or format, Informatica has a solution for you. Whether you want data quality on-premise or in the cloud, have Big Data or something smaller, need to improve data governance or dive into it for the first time, Informatica's proven data quality solutions support your organization's maturity and needs.
Want to start a data quality initiative? Informatica Data Quality Standard Edition provides all the capabilities you need to discover, search, profile, standardize, build rules, deploy rules, create scorecards, manage exceptions and more. As additional projects get underway, you can reuse the same data quality rules to build and expand your company's data quality standards.
Implementing enterprise-wide data quality requires a highly scalable solution. The Informatica Data Quality Advanced Edition gives you the scale required with enterprise grid and partitioning support. Additional enterprise-class capabilities include the ability to discover sensitive data and understand data relationships, as well as advanced matching to de-duplicate and standardize data from diverse sources. With deeper enterprise-wide visibility and insights, you can increase appreciation for the value of quality data and drive more effective business decisions.
For establishing an end-to-end data governance process, Informatica Data Governance Edition is the ultimate choice. It provides the application infrastructure for managing data quality as a business process and enabling compliance with data governance policies and standards. And it provides for better decision making and collaboration with data stewards to ensure trusted data.
SaaS applications like Salesforce are powerful tools, but their data still needs to be cleansed. The more SaaS application data your business consumes, the more you need a hybrid approach to data quality that includes both on-premise and cloud-based tools. Learn more about Informatica Cloud and Cloud Data Quality.
If you want to start small by profiling a single data source, try PowerCenter Express, which includes column profiling. You can download this entry-level data integration tool for departments and SMBs from Informatica Marketplace and install it in ten minutes — and it's free! Download here.
Data quality increases your data's accuracy, and therefore its value. Master Data Management (MDM) is about establishing a single source of truth for customers and products. Combined, they create a detailed, holistic view of your business. For more information on MDM click here.
The more data you capture, the more inaccuracies you're likely to face. If you're storing vast amounts of data in Hadoop, you need data quality for Big Data.
Trust All Your Data, All The Time
Informatica Data Quality is designed to deliver the right data quality capabilities at the right time to the right users. Even without technical know-how, business analysts and data stewards can easily and continually understand and manage the level of their data quality within the context of their evolving data ecosystem.
A self-service interface gives business stakeholders easy access to all the tools they need to manage the entire data quality lifecycle: daily tasks, items to approve, issues to remediate, and fast navigation to related functionality. Business analysts and data stewards collaborate with peers as well as IT counterparts, seamlessly and without confusion.
Informatica Data Quality makes it easy to visualize every aspect of your data — what you have, where it resides, how to access it, and how much of it is sensitive and in need of extra security. The ability to see your data and the relationships within it will accelerate your understanding of its quality and help you identify areas for improvement.
Discovery Search makes it easy to find data assets, business terms, defined rules, and profiles — wherever they are in the enterprise — and drill down to understand how they relate to each other. Your business stakeholders not only grasp them better, but reuse them for greater consistency and faster deliverables.
Data profiling lets you analyze your business data for structure, completeness, and relevance — enabling you to identify and remediate bad data while creating policies and rules for consistent data representation across the enterprise.
The data quality rule builder provides a top-down policy driven experience that lets business stakeholders focus on logical definitions and business objectives without needing to access the data or learn another rule specification syntax.
The business glossary enables stakeholders to collaborate on, build, and manage a common business vocabulary across the organization for clear meaning and business context. Vocabulary can be linked to the underlying technical metadata to document semantic relationships and trace the dependencies, metrics and rules that influence technical implementations. The business glossary also includes a vocabulary searchthat transparently uses keywords and semantic relationships for comprehensive results.
The Informatica Metadata Manager creates a frame of reference for your data by capturing details that support and influence your information systems: technical metadata about your data and data-impacting processes, business metadata about business terms, definitions, and owners, and operational data about how the data is used (operational metadata). Visual lineage and tabular impact summary views detail the data flow from origin to final report and archive, helping users to understand processing of data, both at rest and in motion. The metadata catalog defines a common reference point for planning and executing change, and is crucial for establishing data governance practices.
As part of the Informatica Data Quality feature set, all of the basic capabilities are provided out-of-the-box. Informatica Data Quality includes quality standardization, matching, formatting, duplication, deduplication, parsing, validation, enrichment, consolidation, address confirmation, and more, all provided out-of-the-box.
A library of instructional videos is embedded in Informatica's data quality products for self-paced, learn-as-you-go training at your end users' fingertips.
Informatica Marketplace contains a wide array of Data Quality Accelerators that identify and correct low-quality data such as global names and customer addresses for greater productivity and faster time-to-value. Available packages include geography-based name and address standardization, delivery point validation, reference dictionaries, and prebuilt business rules.
Powered by Informatica's Vibe™ virtual data machine, data quality development is abstracted from the deployment. This allows you to build your data quality rules once, then deploy them to run directly on the Informatica Platform, on Hadoop, in the Cloud, or even embedded in your applications. As your underlying information architecture changes, you don't have to rewrite your data quality business rules. Informatica Vibe™ future-proofs your investment, allowing you to retain your data quality processes in your changing environment.

Women sentenced for starving Grace the horse
ROSEBURG, Ore. -- The women found guilty of animal neglect charges in the case involving Grace the horse, have been sentenced to jail time, but are allowed to own horses again.
Teresa Ann Dicke, 50, and Linda Fessenden, 49, both appeared in Douglas County court Tuesday morning, and Judge George Ambrosini gave them each jail time.
Dicke was sentenced to eight months in jail on each count against her, one for first degree animal abuse and one for first degree animal neglect. Dicke will only spend eight months in jail, since the sentences will run concurrently.
Fessenden was sentenced to 90 days in jail for one count of second degree animal neglect.
Both women were banned from owning domestic animals for five years, which doesn't include horses. Douglas County Deputy District Attorney Jamie Carmichael asked the judge to make an exception and ban the women from owning horses in the future, but she says the judge told her he has to follow the letter of the law.
Domestic animals include cats and dogs, and horses fall under livestock.
Both women were also ordered to pay restitution to Strawberry Mountain Mustangs, where Grace was cared for after being seized by animal control. The amount of that restitution has not been decided yet.
The case began back in 2010, when Grace was taken from property on Willis Creek Road owned by Dicke.
Both women have been told to report to jail by Friday.
Grace was nursed back to health at the Strawberry Mountain Mustangs horse rescue, and recently passed away due to health complications.

CONSTABLEVILLE The Constableville Fish and Game Club has been awarded $4,988 from the state Department of Environmental Conservation for renovations to be made to the exterior of a clubhouse.
The club was the only organization in Lewis County to receive an award. As part of Gov. Andrew M. Cuomos New York Open for Fishing and Hunting initiative, $135,000 was awarded throughout the state to 13 nonprofit shooting ranges.
In a news release, DEC officials said that through partnership with Cornell Cooperative Extension of Saratoga County, and with funding support from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, grants under this program will help shooting ranges expand public use of their facilities.
Funding for the program is derived from the Federal Aid in Wildlife Restoration program, based on a federal tax on firearms and ammunition made available to state fish and wildlife agencies for their sportsman education activities. This year, DEC sought applications up to $15,000 for range improvement projects. Each successful applicant provided a match of at least 25 percent of the total project. These grants allow recipients to enhance their ranges or build new facilities, including ranges, storage units, accessible restrooms, roads, parking areas and hunter education classrooms.

A rebound win against the Carolina Hurricanes and a chance to travel to the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver. Not a bad way to end 2009 and start 2010 for Captain Chris Drury and assistant captain Ryan Callahan.
The 2010 appearance will be Callahan's first and Drury's third.
Blueshirt Bulletin contributor and Newsday beat writer had the following reactions from the players at practice today:
said, 'We thought you had a good first half of the season and can help
the Olympic team," said Callahan, a 24-year old Rochester native who
was chosen as a Rangers alternate captain in his fourth season and has
19 points, including five goals and six assists in the last 13 games.
"To say I was excited is putting it mildly."
Chris Drury, who celebrated the birth of his third child this week, was equally excited.
"It's been a great week," said Drury. "Just based on age, it's three different circumstances. Now I'll be one of the oldest."
Drury participated in 2002 and 2006, earning the Silver Medal.
In 12 games, Drury has three points and is a +3.
The team re-matches against the Hurricanes tomorrow afternoon at MSG. Game time is scheduled for 1 pm. Catch our live blog here at BlueshirtBulletin.com

Biotechnology is a research-intensive industry that generates huge volumes of data in its quest to detect diseases early, develop new therapeutics, and find innovative treatments. Biotech organizations rely on mission-critical applications and devices to not only power their research and development but also to reduce operating costs, decrease time to market, and help them quickly respond to compliance and security mandates. In order to deliver these benefits, almost all biotech software and device vendors (biotech ISVs / OEMs) rely on an embedded database to perform their products' most common tasks: data capture, analysis, and management. Therefore, the selection of the right database is critical to the success of these biotech applications, and the research institutes and corporations that rely on them.
"Thus far we have collected about 2 million sequencing reads, or about 1TB of raw sequence data. The MySQL Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) database is central to our sequencing process. Its schema contains 115 tables, 1,171 fields and 195 foreign keys."

My favorite chapter of any knitting book is Chapter 2 of Elizabeth Zimmermann's Knitting Without Tears. The chapter is called "Gauge: Required Reading" and it's short and to the point.
I pulled the book off the shelf yesterday specifically to read just that chapter. I'm teaching a Learn to Knit class at my LYS and will be talking about gauge during Sunday's class. The class is the second in a series of three. The first class we cast-on, knit and purled. When they come to class on Sunday the students will have a square piece of stockinette fabric. Hopefully.
Since I want to get the newbies to understand Gauge, I pulled out my bag of swatches to bring to class. I found this:
This is the first knitting I ever produced. I borrowed my friend's Stitch & Bitch book and sat down with some heather gray Red Heart and size 8 needles that my sister gave me. I'm amazed that I still have this bit of knitting. But when Debbie Stoller tells you to hold onto it for posterity, you pretty much do what she says.
During my first two years of knitting, I never knit a gauge swatch. Or if I did it was a half-assed one. I knit them now because I like to; I collect them. Sometimes my gauge swatches are the beginning and end of a project. Sometimes they evolve into something more. And to be honest, I still don't always knit a swatch. Really!
Here is a picture from May '08. If you click on it you can see notes on each swatch. Since I took that picture, I have made many more swatches and found older ones, too.
So, back to knitting class on Sunday. I am struggling with how to approach the gauge issue with newbies. I agree with EZ when she says, "GAUGE is the most important principle in knitting." I will teach the new knitters how to measure it, tell them what it means, and illustrate what might happen if they ignore the swatching process.
But I think the gauge part of knitting is something that you have to learn over time. You need one gloriously effed up project – hours and hours of knitting – to teach you that swatching is a step not to be ignored.
That's about enough gauge talk, right? How about a free hat pattern?
I was going to call this pattern, written for the newbies, "How to Knit a Hat" but that was taken. So instead I named it Elementary. Knit in the round with worsted weight yarn, garter stitch brim, spiral-y decreases at the top.
You can get this one-page download for free on Ravelry. CLICK HERE!
P.S. Don't forget to check your gauge before you begin: 20 sts = 4″ measured over stockinette stitch.

The gear loops look small, but clipping is no problem! My only problem is the sizing. I had always fit into a small, but for this harness in a small I have to cinch the waist all the way for it to fit snug. I heard it was good for women with a curvy figure. I'm 5'3", 118 pounds with runner's thighs (big in proportion to my 26 inch waist) and this harness is a little too big for me. You need to be curvy in the thighs and waist for it to fit right. Otherwise, it's a great harness!
- Sizing:
- Feels half size too big
- Was this a gift?:
- Yes

(a) Claims against Fund for response costs
No claim may be asserted against the Fund pursuant to section 9611 (a) of this title unless such claim is presented in the first instance to the owner, operator, or guarantor of the vessel or facility from which a hazardous substance has been released, if known to the claimant, and to any other person known to the claimant who may be liable under section 9607 of this title. In any case where the claim has not been satisfied within 60 days of presentation in accordance with this subsection, the claimant may present the claim to the Fund for payment. No claim against the Fund may be approved or certified during the pendency of an action by the claimant in court to recover costs which are the subject of the claim.
(b) Forms and procedures applicable
(1) Prescribing forms and procedures
The President shall prescribe appropriate forms and procedures for claims filed hereunder, which shall include a provision requiring the claimant to make a sworn verification of the claim to the best of his knowledge. Any person who knowingly gives or causes to be given any false information as a part of any such claim shall, upon conviction, be fined in accordance with the applicable provisions of title 18 or imprisoned for not more than 3 years (or not more than 5 years in the case of a second or subsequent conviction), or both.
(2) Payment or request for hearing
The President may, if satisfied that the information developed during the processing of the claim warrants it, make and pay an award of the claim, except that no claim may be awarded to the extent that a judicial judgment has been made on the costs that are the subject of the claim. If the President declines to pay all or part of the claim, the claimant may, within 30 days after receiving notice of the President's decision, request an administrative hearing.
(3) Burden of proof
In any proceeding under this subsection, the claimant shall bear the burden of proving his claim.
(4) Decisions
All administrative decisions made hereunder shall be in writing, with notification to all appropriate parties, and shall be rendered within 90 days of submission of a claim to an administrative law judge, unless all the parties to the claim agree in writing to an extension or unless the President, in his discretion, extends the time limit for a period not to exceed sixty days.
(5) Finality and appeal
All administrative decisions hereunder shall be final, and any party to the proceeding may appeal a decision within 30 days of notification of the award or decision. Any such appeal shall be made to the Federal district court for the district where the release or threat of release took place. In any such appeal, the decision shall be considered binding and conclusive, and shall not be overturned except for arbitrary or capricious abuse of discretion.
(6) Payment
Within 20 days after the expiration of the appeal period for any administrative decision concerning an award, or within 20 days after the final judicial determination of any appeal taken pursuant to this subsection, the President shall pay any such award from the Fund. The President shall determine the method, terms, and time of payment.
(c) Subrogation rights; actions maintainable
(1) Payment of any claim by the Fund under this section shall be subject to the United States Government acquiring by subrogation the rights of the claimant to recover those costs of removal or damages for which it has compensated the claimant from the person responsible or liable for such release.
(2) Any person, including the Fund, who pays compensation pursuant to this chapter to any claimant for damages or costs resulting from a release of a hazardous substance shall be subrogated to all rights, claims, and causes of action for such damages and costs of removal that the claimant has under this chapter or any other law.
(3) Upon request of the President, the Attorney General shall commence an action on behalf of the Fund to recover any compensation paid by the Fund to any claimant pursuant to this subchapter, and, without regard to any limitation of liability, all interest, administrative and adjudicative costs, and attorney's fees incurred by the Fund by reason of the claim. Such an action may be commenced against any owner, operator, or guarantor, or against any other person who is liable, pursuant to any law, to the compensated claimant or to the Fund, for the damages or costs for which compensation was paid.
(d) Statute of limitations
(1) Claims for recovery of costs
(2) Claims for recovery of damages
No claim may be presented under this section for recovery of the damages referred to in section 9607 (a) of this title unless the claim is presented within 3 years after the later of the following:
(3) Minors and incompetents
The time limitations contained herein shall not begin to run—
(A) against a minor until the earlier of the date when such minor reaches 18 years of age or the date on which a legal representative is duly appointed for the minor, or
(e) Other statutory or common law claims not waived, etc.
Regardless of any State statutory or common law to the contrary, no person who asserts a claim against the Fund pursuant to this subchapter shall be deemed or held to have waived any other claim not covered or assertable against the Fund under this subchapter arising from the same incident, transaction, or set of circumstances, nor to have split a cause of action. Further, no person asserting a claim against the Fund pursuant to this subchapter shall as a result of any determination of a question of fact or law made in connection with that claim be deemed or held to be collaterally estopped from raising such question in connection with any other claim not covered or assertable against the Fund under this subchapter arising from the same incident, transaction, or set of circumstances.

What are your favorite "reason" channels on You Tube (or other), and why?
Aron Ra: Foundational Falsehoods of Creationism
He can intone more polysyllabic words per minute --even off the cuff -- than anyone else, and do so with conviction to build a formidable argument. His nickname is "the Texas Tank" and he does tend to roll right over people making poor arguments.
Also, he has way better hair than Edward Cullen.
Seth Andrews: The Thinking Atheist
Afterlife is one of his best, IMHO. The podcasts are a bit of a mixed bag due to being part commentary, part call-in shows. But his videos are thoughtful, well written, and have very high production values.
Truth Surge: Excavating the Empty Tomb is a substantive, well-researched, well-produced series. His music videos are quite nice, too, even the satirical covers.
Wildwood Claire: Her "Coffee with Claire" series features often painful clips from anti-science, anti-reason demagogues, and she doesn't sugar-coat her contempt. Her Geodyssey series is entertaining and informative on an academic subject that has not been 'popularized' for the general public.

Almost eight months after a 9.0 magnitude earthquake and devastating tsunami struck Japan, killing or injuring more than 25,000, the death toll from radiation exposure at Japan's storm-ravaged Fukushima Daiiche nuclear power plant (photo from 2002) stands at zero. Gregory Jaczko, chairman of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, admitted as much on Monday in Washington during a roundtable discussion entitled "Fukushima: Lessons Learned," an event sponsored by Georgetown University and the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
When a reporter from CNSNews.com asked him about radiation exposure deaths, Jaczko first jokingly tried to pass the question off to another panel expert but then acknowledged, "There have been no fatalities that we're aware of that are directly related to radiation exposure." He went on to explain that some workers received abnormally high levels of radiation after the disaster both at the plant and through contact with contaminated water, but "nothing that is going to lead to an immediate loss of life."
These results prove what experts have predicted since the quake and tidal wave hit Japan's Pacific coast in March: No one would die from radiation as a result of the incident.

The Academy invites applications from American translators currently engaged in the translation of twentieth-century Italian poetry. The winning translator will receive an award of $25,000 and a five-week residency at the American Academy in Rome.
Submissions are accepted September 15 through February 15 each year. Postmark deadline: February 15.

FINEVIEW Carter T. and Delany J. Allen both 2 stood at the base of a cider mill loaded with apples Saturday, watching a volunteer turn its mill crank to create a stream of freshly squeezed juice that filled a bucket below.
Drink it up! teased their grandfather, Thomas R. Allen, whose seven grandchildren, from 5 months to 5 years old, attended the 35th annual Autumn Festival at Wellesley Island State Parks Minna Anthony Common Nature Center. The 67-year-old Rochester resident said Allen family gatherings are hosted every year during the fall weekend at his cottage on the island.
It gives the kids something to grab everywhere, he said of the festival, which drew an attendance of 1,590 people Saturday. Youngsters took part in a scarecrow-making contest, had their faces painted with spiderwebs and watched a live bird display hosted by master falconer Rick West.
Their parents enjoyed walking the nature trail, purchasing crafts from local vendors and listening to live music from an array of artists who played the violin, cello, guitar, drums and hammered dulcimer.
Standing among a field of scarecrows hung on wooden crosses was a local outdoor painter, who practiced his craft on an easel with a palette. The easel was stationed next to a scarecrow featuring a woman adorned in a pink nightgown, cradling an infant in her arms. A young boy, perhaps 2, tugged at the train of the scarecrow womans gown.
Robert P. Heddens painting included minute details of the scarecrow, capturing the pink curlers wrapped in her hair. The painting will be hung up at the center for display.
Ill pick two or three scarecrows to paint, said the Wellesley Island resident, who stood in the shade provided by an umbrella affixed to the easel. All I have to do is holler at the kids to carry my stuff when Im ready to move to another scarecrow.
Hordes of children also took home painted pumpkins Saturday. Couple Anthony J. and Amber R. Augliano watched their daughters, Adilyn J. and Ariana J., paint gourds by dipping brushes in water colors.
I remember coming here as a kid. It was similar, but there are a lot more people now, said Mr. Augliano, a Clayton native who is a second grade teacher at LaFargeville Elementary School. Mrs. Augliano is a speech language pathologist at Alexandria Bay Central School District.
Theyre growing up on the river, like us, he said.
Nearby, 6-year-old Evan M. Belfield requested to have a spiderweb painted across his face by a volunteer.
Awesome! he said as a small mirror was held up for him to review the outcome.
Evans niece, Mary P. Marcon, said she and her two sisters made the trip north from Syracuse to attend the festival, staying at a seasonal house their parents own in Theresa.
Theres always fun stuff to do here, she said. Were going on a hike next, then making a scarecrow.
Proceeds from the festival, hosted by the Friends of the Nature Center, will go toward purchasing school supplies for field trips, maintenance projects for hiking trails and educational programs at the center. New hands-on activities will also be started at its childrens room.

WELLS, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- A 3rd grader at Wells Elementary School got a great surprise for his 8th birthday, a visit from his father, who has been serving in the Army in Afghanistan for the past 9 months.
Heath McHugh hadn't seen his dad, Donnie McHugh, since last Christmas. McHugh was supposed to arrive in Maine a few days ago, but his flights to Kuwait kept being cancelled. When he saw his father enter the elementary school gym, Heath simply said, "That's my dad."
Heath and his father will not be able to spend much time together. McHugh has to go back to Afghanistan tomorrow. Two planned to go birthday shopping. Heath says he wants an air soft gun.

Parameters are options that you can set to control the content or format of the macro output. Where the parameter name used in Confluence storage format or wikimarkup is different to the label used in the macro browser, it will be listed below in brackets (
RSS Feed URL
The URL of the RSS feed link you want to show.
Maximum Number of Entries
Limit the number of entries displayed.
Show Item Titles Only
Show only the titles of the news items, not the content.
Show Name/Title of RSS Feed
Hide the feeds title bar.
How up to date is the feed?
By default, the RSS Feed macro caches the feed results for 60 minutes before fetching the data again.
If you wish to change the default caching, use the Cache macro to define how often the RSS Feed macro fetches the feed updates. You will need to install the Cache plugin onto your Confluence site.
What happens to a page containing a disallowed URL?
Your Confluence Administrator can set up a whitelist of allowed URLs. If this is the case, you may see an error on the pages which contain the RSS Feed macro.
A user can add the RSS Feed macro or the HTML-include macro to a Confluence page. The macro code includes a URL from which the content is drawn. When the page is displayed, Confluence will check the URL against the whitelist. If the URL is not allowed, Confluence will display an error message on the page.
The error message says that Confluence "could not access the content at the URL because it is not from an allowed source" and displays the offending URL. If the person viewing the page is a Confluence Administrator, they will also see a link to the Administration page where they can configure the URL whitelist.
Here is an example of the error message, including the link shown only to Confluence Administrators:
Here is an example of the error message, but without the link.
Private feeds from external sites
RSS feeds which require authentication cannot be accessed using the RSS Feed macro.
Accessing internal HTTPS feeds
This applies only to Confluence instances which have enabled HTTPS for all content. If your site is fully HTTPS, the RSS Feed macro cannot access internal feeds. To enable the RSS Feed macro to access internal feeds without affecting your HTTPS setup, enable local-only HTTP access:
- Shut down Confluence.
- Consult the SSL guide to enable HTTP access to Confluence. You'll want to ensure that you have an HTTP connector and an SSL connector, both commented in. This means that Confluence will be accessible via both HTTP and HTTPS. However, you should not have a redirect port, nor rules in web.xml to redirect all traffic.
- Instead of using web.xml to redirect traffic, insert a firewall rule to redirect all HTTP requests not from the Confluence server to the equivalent HTTPS URL. This ensures that users will only be able to access Confluence via HTTPS, as intended. If you have still left HTTP access for attachments enabled (to avoid the IE download bug) you must selectively enable those URLS as well.
- Modify your Confluence RSS Feed macro feed link to use the HTTP URL, and restart Confluence.
Enabling the RSS Feed macro
The RSS Feed macro is disabled by default.
To enable the RSS Feed macro:
- Go to > Add-ons.
- Select System from the drop down and search for the Confluence HTML Macros add-on.
- Expand the add-on and enable the rss (rss-xhtml) module.

How can I add the username of the current user to an rss macro... not for authentication, but just as an identifier for the rss feed to look up their related records?? Eg. where username and username-email would be replaced with whomever is currently log into the wiki page.19 Apr 2009
The urls in the rss macro is a url which is generated by the feeder. If your feeder support those urls then, rss macro will display as what rss feeder gives. Please consult to the owner of the site where you take the urls from for better clarification on what parameter that you can put. Please do note that rss macro is only responsible to download the rss data and displaying the data in Confluence page. What data that is displayed in Confluence page is really depending on the feeder.20 Apr 2009
I'm trying to embed an RSS feed into the front page of my Confluence wiki. The display settings on this macro aren't as robust/functional as some of the other RSS readers available (i.e. Google Gadget Custom RSS). While experimenting with different RSS feed options, I tried embedding HTML script using the HTML macro. It looked great but there were two problems: 1) The script would disappear whenever I'd re-edit the page, and 2) I kept getting security warnings through IE.
I'd love to be able to use this RSS macro or the Widget macro in some way, but I haven't quite found (I'd like to be able to show teasers and embed the feed in a self-contained box in page with other items). Any suggestions?18 May 2009
Hi, Adam. Sorry if this is a little late. In regards to the disappearing HTML, I believe that you are using the Rich Text Editor which is infamous of this known bug. Perhaps, you can create a special page for this section/feed and include it in your front page? You can also try the Widget Connector Macro to embed some Google Gadgets to your site.11 Aug 2009
My work-around for the Rich text bug is to place the script in an html attachment file, and then reference that script in the html macro e.g.Unknown macro: {html}
{html]06 Aug 2010
Hi there!
I am using RSS macro for displaying news. My requirement is to add one more colum which shows the date of posing the news (similar to blog-post macro). Can you please suggest, what should I modify in the rss.vm file to show the news posted date.
Best Retards,
Nawaz Quadri28 Jul 2009
Hi Nawaz,
I am afraid that this will require some changes in the class, not just the .vm files. Feel free to raise a feature request at the plugin's issue tracker if you are keen on it.
Azwandi04 Aug 2009
I am trying to embed a JIRA 4.0 project specific RSS feed in a Confluence page. Even though the content is displayed, so is the HTML markup associated with each item in the feed. I have been able to display content from other RSS feeds just fine. Other macros such as the [jiraissues] macro work fine between Confluence and JIRA. I am not sure if it has to deal with authentication issues or if there may be some kind of limitations to doing this?
The macro I am using is formed like this:
Tthe output becomes:

Thanks a lot for your quick reply!18 Feb 2010
Hi there - I was wondering whether there is a quick solution for aggregating multiple RSS feeds into the one feed for display on a Confluence page?
I noticed that an earlier version of Confluence had a RSS Aggregator Plugin - is something similar available/planned for version 3.1?
Clayton Wehner19 Feb 2010
Sashidaran Jayaraman [Atlassian]
Hi Clayton,
Unfortunately, the RSS Aggregator macro Plugin is not supported in Confleunce 3.1. Perhaps you could contact the plugin author to get some updates on the plugin. Also feel free to raise a feature request at http://jira.atlassian.com. and describe in detail how you require this feature to work. Please add yourself as a watcher, vote for this feature and add your own comments to this feature request.

can the RSS content be integrated in the search index ?09 Nov 2010
Hi All,
I integrate the Feed of my company page at Facebook with this Macro. The problem ist, that Facebook is missing the base URL in the links provided by the feed:
instead of the correct:
Is there any chance to configure this macro to "auto-add" the base URL to the provided links?
And another question: Can I force Confluence or this macro to open all external links in a new browser tab?

Anyone know what that's about?30 Aug 2011
Gak! I'm anonymous. :)30 Aug 2011
WTF is going on, with this Wiki documentation ? I see "Show Item Titles Only" , but I do not see the actual attribute that I need to type, into Wikitext.
I am wasting time on this product, trying things, trying things that should just bloody well be spelled out, in this document. (This is all through, the documents, online).20 Apr 2012
Hallo there anonymous
My apologies for this gap in the documentation.The macro names, parameter names and values were removed at the time of the Confluence 4.0 release, when wiki markup was no longer the storage format. This was a mistake.
I'm working on fixing the problem. See this issue: CONF-24972
In the meantime, you can find the parameter and value names in the Confluence 3.5 documentation, which still refers to wiki markup: Recently Updated Macro.
Cheers, Sarah10 Aug 2012

I'm getting the same problem
Error rendering macro 'rss' : org.apache.commons.httpclient.ConnectTimeoutException: The host did not accept the connection within timeout of 10000
Any news?
Thanks31 Jan 2013
Is it possible to include other paramenters in the macro that a rss feed contains, such as the date posted. This would be vital for our feeds. Or can you suggest a way of including it?
Louise.15 Nov 2013
Is there any way to display more than 15 entries? While this page states that 15 is the default, setting the number higher doesn't seem to have any effect.
Thanks in advance.02 Jul 2014

POTSDAM - Potsdam, Malone and St. Regis Falls all extended winning streaks on Saturday at the second day of Section 10 Vs Section 7 Boys Basketball Challenge which was staged at SUNY Potsdam.
Potsdam (4-2) posted its fourth straight win downing Peru 48-36, Malone climbed to 10-0 with a victory over Beekmantown and St. Regis Falls rolled to 9-0 with a 58-11 victory over Lake Placid.
Massena fell to Saranac Central, Seton Catholic nipper Tupper Lake 48-46 and the OFA vs Ausable Valley contest was cancelled by the arrival of a winter storm in middle of the afternoon.
Potsdam 48 - Peru 36: Willie Coleman provided a game-high 19 points and Konnor Bigwarfe tallied 11 points while passing out nine assists for the Sandstoners.
We are a work in progress. We are a young team but we are definitely coming together as a team. Adjusting to pressure defense was a big problem for us earlier this season but we are handling pressure much better now, said Potsdam Coach Brooks Bigwarfe.
Peru is a good team and very aggressive on defense. We ran some different things in the second half to get us going.
Owen Mitchell scored eight points, Shawn Clark grabbed eight rebounds and Nick Vacarro added six points to the win. Makenzie Laroque scored 17 points to pace Peru.
St. Regis Falls 51, Lake Placid 11: Four players scored double figures for the Saints who took a 25-6 lead at SUNY Potsdam against the visiting Lake Placid, Brandon Votra scored 12 points and tallied six boards, Ty Daggett added 12 points and Caleb Green (six assists) and Corey Labounty each logged 10 points for the 9-0 Saints.
Louie Goodrow added six boards and three points.
Saranac Central 57, Massena 42: Saranac rolled to a 24-17 halftime lead and prevailed while being led by Jeremy Bullis 21 points and Connor Christophersons 13. Kyle Rascoe added 11. For Massena, Zack Rusaw tallied 15 and Joey Labella scored 12 points.
Malone 65, Beekmantown 47: The Huskies (10-0) jumped to a 38-26 halftime lead and won the three-point contest 10-0. Nate Monette generated 17 points while Connor Dailey scored 14 and John Dunlavey added 13.
Kegan Ryan scored 22 for Beekmantown.
Chateaugay 54, NAC 24: It was a fitting way to end his varsity basketball coaching career at Chateaugay Central – surrounded by Bulldog players and a win on the CCS scoreboard.
A tribute to retired Head Coach Ron Boyea was held on Saturday prior to the CCS game against former player and Northern Adirondack Central Head Coach Nate Bilow. The Bulldogs had little trouble in defeating the Bobcats, winning the one-sided game, 54-24.
Approximately 50 of Boyeas former charges were on hand in front of a packed house at the Chateaugay gymnasium to honor the former Bulldog basketball boss. Each season, beginning with Boyeas first at the helm of the Bulldogs, the 1991-92 campaign, was represented by at least one former player.
Ron knew that we had something planned and we had to tell him about the get-together at the (American) Legion afterwards, but he really didnt know what we were going to do, explained Helen Boyea, Rons wife. I know it was a bit overwhelming to see all those former players show up, but Ron took the time to show his appreciation with each one of them.
Pacing Chateaugay in the win was Noah Bowes with 15 and Jared Martin with 10.
Lyme 54, Harrisville 48: All-tournament MVP Troy Wilson led a balanced attack with 16 points as the Indians used a strong fourth quarter to beat the Pirates in the finals of the Charlie Bridge tournament in Sackets Harbor.
Timmy Morrow added 12 points and eight rebounds for Lyme (7-2). Kody Goutremont earned a place on the all-tournament team with eight points,
All-tournament team selection Nick Weir and Nathan Weaver each had 11 points for Harrisville (7-2). Joey Butts also got a slot on the all-tourney team.

MENLO PARK, Cal. (NEWS CENTER) - If you've been a Facebook users for a number of years, you know it can be hard to find things you've posted in the past. Today in California, Mark Zuckerberg announced a new tool to help users with finding more information within Facebook.
Facebook calls this new tool "Graph Search" and it's basically an internal search within Facebook. So if you want to search for a photo of a trip you took five years ago, you can use this search tool and find it. You can search within your friends, and you can search anything that is made public.
With Graph Search, there are two possible search results, public posts (from all over Facebook) and information within your group of friends.
Once this tool starts officially rolls out, anyone can search anything that's public on Facebook. So in a sense this is Facebook's way of saying to users, you need to be paying more attention to your privacy settings.
A few weeks ago they rolled out easier to use and understand privacy tools, little did we know it was because of this new search tool. Basically you can search anything that you've posted, anything your friends have posted, and anything that's made public. That's the key thing too... Knowing what's public and what's not.
Understand the new Facebook privacy tools here:
So how specific does this search get?
The examples Facebook showed us were pretty specific. The current search is very vague. If you were to search anything now on Facebook, the results would either be Bing results or pages on Facebook. The new search allows for key phrasing. It searches across four different categories: people, photos, places, and interests. The search phrases can be something like "Tourist attractions in Europe visited by my friends" or "dentists in my town" Then Facebook pulls the results based on what your friends have posted and what non-friends have made public. This also includes pages.
Graph Search will also deliver different results to every single user. It's all based on your Facebook activity and your friends Facebook activity, just like your news feed.
Things like this are often very slow to roll out to everyone on Facebook, so be patient. They say that of their 1 billion users, only a few hundred will get it. It's in beta stage now, and they're going to perfect it through beta then roll it out to everyone later on. So it could be a while. They have a sample of what it will look like and do based on your activity:
For more on what Graph Search is:

The farm on Northwest Gillihan Road draws thousands on sunny October weekends. Other Sauvie Island farmers haven't been able to match the success of the Eggers' business.
But now there's a war on the island over a copycat pumpkin interloper who locals say has used unethical tactics to steal the Eggers' customers.
The feud involves the county sheriff, reports of theft and vandalism, obscenities shouted from cars, and one of the new business's managers admitting he tore down signs to the Eggers' patch.
The new business, the Portland Pumpkin Farm at Bella Organic, is owned by Mike Hashem. It's been accused of stopping cars on their way to the Pumpkin Patch and diverting customers with free passes to its corn maze.
"His tactics are low level," said Don Kruger, owner of a neighboring farm. "If he was doing that to me, I'd be outraged."
Hashem says he's doing nothing wrong. "[The Eggers'] lot has been full," he says. "That proves there's a need for another farm."
His son-in-law dismisses complaints about the Portland Pumpkin Farm making itself look like the Pumpkin Patch. "They have pumpkins, we have pumpkins," says Johnny Kondilis. "They have hay rides, we have hay rides."
The Multnomah County Sheriff's Office got a call Oct. 8 from the Eggers complaining a Bella employee was waving a stop sign on Gillihan Road. A Pumpkin Patch employee took photos.
A sheriff's report says Hashem swore at the Pumpkin Patch employee and said he was going to "bury him on the property." Hashem tells WW he thought the employee's camera was a gun and admits he had "some choice words" for him.
Hashem has already caused controversy on the insular island over plans to turn Big Island Marina into a wedding venue that locals feared would increase traffic congestion.
He says he's had a truck stolen and seen his farm's signs vandalized since the pumpkin controversy started this month.
The Eggers, who are still doing big business this year, say they were once close to Hashem—even going on a family vacation together—and are surprised by the way he's competing with them.
Some locals are yelling and flipping off Hashem's employees as they drive by—something the Pumpkin Patch's Bob Egger doesn't condone. "He started a business that puts a public face on his farm, giving people something to yell at," he says.
"We're patrolling regularly to keep the peace," says Capt. Jason Gates of the sheriff's office, which is paying deputies overtime to deal with the situation. "They need to work it out."
Hashem agrees. "[The sheriff] has more important things to do," he says, "than be pumpkin police."
NOTE: This story has been edited after publication to correct the name of the family that owns the Pumpkin Patch. The name is Egger, not Eggers.

The Leuser Ecosystem is one of the last remaining true wilderness areas in Indonesia. This vast landscape spans lowland evergreen dipterocarp forest, lower and upper montane rainforest, peat swamp forest, sub-alpine meadows and heathlands, freshwater lakes and rivers, and sulphur mineral pools. Sumatran rhinos, Asian elephants, and sun bears pad through the forests, orangutans and gibbons swing through the trees, and crocodiles and fish swim its waters.
