How to browse LTO/Disk content
Please can you help me to understand how I can browse LTO or disk content with BE 2012 ? I have a LTO, but don't know what is it. I want to browse the LTO to see the content. I tried in many ways, but haven't been able to browse the content. I can only see a set of backups, but I am not sure it's the content. What I did is an inventory. Actually, I had some strange behaviour. For example, I made an inventory on an hardisk. Then I formated it and made another inventory. I still have data in the set of backups. I did not found a way to browse the disk, from BE, and see that there is no data anymore.
What is the right way to browse a LTO/disk content to be sure that what we are seeing is the real content ?
Thank you for your help.
Best regards.

Then when you see the B2D media double click it and you should see the content
In BE 2012 when you delete the backup set from storage it in turn delete the bkf from Backup to Disk location. If you format the Drive where the B2D was then the catalog still remain in BE since you have not deleted the backup sets from BE (which will inform the BE database that the entries for the backups have gone)
To check for contents in tape go to slots and then you can go to details for Tapes. For tapes it still follows media sets.
To know the content at a granular level , click on restore.
@matteo -
The proper way to see know what is on a disk or tape media is
1) inventory the media. This is to let BE know that the media exists
2) catalog the media. This will enumerate the contents of the media. If you cannot catalog the media, then you cannot do anything with it in BE. For example, if you catalog your LTO tape and it failed for whatever reason, then you cannot use it for a restore. It could be that it was written by another backup software.
After cataloging the media, you would be able to see the backup sets on the media when you click on it in the Storage tab. You can also try to do a restore from a backup set on the media and the restore selection screen will show you all the individual items.
Thanks for your response.
I tried what you described, and it worked on LTO.
I tried to format a hard drive, then invertory and the catalog it. I still have the backups that were before formating. As Gurvinder Rait said, I have to delete the backup sets manually. But why is there a difference between LTO and hard drives ? Because of that, I may confuse if a hard drive is formated (or whatever), then catalogued. I will see on BE that there is a set of backups, try to restore and indeed get an error.
Best regards.
When you format (erase) a tape, BE knows that you are destroying the backup sets on the tape and it will delete the catalogs accordingly.
When you format a drive, this is an OS action. BE does not know that you have destroyed the backup sets on this drive and hence it does not delete the corresponding catalogs, so you can see the backup sets in BE. You would then have to retire and delete these backup sets. If you retire and delete the backup sets without formatting the drive, then BE 2012 will delete the corresponding disk files for you. For previous versions of BE, you would have to delete the corresponding disk files yourself, after retiring and deleting the media.

According to a new report made public by the World Wildlife Fund, human society can make significant progress in terms of fighting back climate change and global warming by curbing global aircraft emissions.
Furthermore, the organization maintains that, all things considered, greening up the aviation industry is well within our reach.
More precisely, a global system, whose purpose would be that of cutting down on the amounts of aircraft emissions that are produced on a yearly basis, could easily be set up without upsetting the economy.
Not to mention the fact that the modern technologies we now have at our disposal would be more than enough for this system to be a successful one.
"A global system to regulate runaway greenhouse gas emissions from aviation is technically and economically feasible and could help address climate change," reads the organization's official website.
As this green-oriented group explains, aviation is, for the time being at least, one of the most emission-intensive form of transport known to our society.
Because of this, it contributes to climate instability and fosters extreme weather manifestations.
The idea to green up the aviation industry has been around for roughly a decade now without anybody actually giving it the attention it deserves.
Still, the Wold Wildlife Fund hopes that its rolling out this report ahead of a meeting of the High Level Group established by the International Civil Aviation Organization will help change things for the better.
"[Our report] outlines four options, and weighs their pros and cons, to develop a global system to regulate emissions from aircraft. These include offsetting, offsetting with a revenue generating mechanism, a cap and trade emissions trading system, and a levy with offsetting," the organization explains.
Furthermore, "The report finds that the latter three options can both cut pollution at the least cost to industry, and also generate funds that could be used to support global efforts to address climate change, while maintaining a level playing field between airlines."
Hopefully, its proposal will be given due consideration.

How much money does General Motors owe the United States federal government?
As of September 2012, General Motors (GM) is still indebted to the US Government for $27.2 billion.
As part of the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP), GM received a total of $50.7 billion. The government also holds an approximately 26% stake in the equity of GM. A current report issued to Congress showed that if the government were to sell its position in GM, it would be at a loss of $25.1 billion to the American taxpayer.
Chrysler, on the other hand, has repaid all of it TARP loans. The loans were not due until 2017, but Chrysler paid them off early in May 2011.
While the government is expected to lose money overall on the auto industry bailout, it has actually made money on the bank bailout. They disbursed $245 billion to the banks, and received principal repayments of $230 billion and interest payments of $34 billion.

Discoverer of Earth's Oldest Fossils Speaks at OWU for SNC
October 9, 2001
DELAWARE, OHIO -- Dr. J. William Schopf, Director of the Center for the Study of Evolution and the Origin of Life and Professor of Paleobiology of the Institute of Geophysics and Planetary Physics at the University of California, Los Angeles, will speak at Ohio Wesleyan's Sagan National Colloquium Public Affairs Series on Thursday, Oct. 11. His presentation will be at 7:30 p.m. in the Hamilton-Williams Campus Center. Schopf, who is OWU's Phi Beta Kappa Visiting Scholar, will lecture on "Discovery of Earth's Earliest Fossils: Solution to Darwin's Dilemma." Schopf, in fact, is credited, along with fellow researchers, with discovering Earth's oldest fossils dating back some three billions years.
In his new book, Cradle of Life: The Discovery of Earth's Earliest Fossils, published by Princeton University Press and winner of the 2000 Phi Beta Kappa Book Award in Science, Schopf explains how he and other scientists, after three decades, solved Charles Darwin's challenge of not being able to explain the absence of any fossil record prior to 550 million years ago. But, as Schopf says, researchers were asking the wrong questions. He and his colleagues began looking for fossils of the microorganisms -- undetectable with conventional equipment -- that populated the Earth for most of the first 85 percent of its history, and were able to produce evidence of these microscopic cellular organisms dating back some 3.5 billion years.
One of the world's leading experts in Precambrian paleobiology, Schopf received his Ph.D. from Harvard in 1968. Recipient of two Guggenheim Fellowships, and several other major awards, he has pursued geological and biological field studies in Australia, India, China, Europe, South Africa, North America and the former Soviet Union.
The Sagan National Colloquium is in its 16th year at OWU. Lectures are free of charge and open to the public. For more information, call the Office of University Communications at 740-368-3335 or visit snc.owu.edu.

Build your deck, then fight through it as it comes to life.
By Tim Colwill on November 13, 2013 at 11:40 am
Australian developers Defiant have just launched the Kickstarter for their new game Hand of Fate, which some readers may remember from the show floor at this year's PAX Australia.
Hand of Fate blends tabletop card gaming with RPG action, creating what Defiant call a "card-based roguelike" where the randomised cards come to life as dungeons to explore and monsters to also explore (with your sword).
Because you can control how the deck is built prior to each game, you can adjust the sort of game you'd like to experience. It's all very interesting-looking, but to make it a DRM-free reality, Defiant are looking for $50,000 on Kickstarter. They've already raised $4,000, and as little as $15 gets you a copy of the game for Windows, Mac and Linux.
Take a look here — it's one of the first Official Australian Kickstarters as well, so do your bit for your nation and pledge it up.

Actually, PyPy was my answer to the problems > > to make Python Stackless: > > So this is definitely one of the goals of PyPy? To allow > such a transformation to occur to a python (not CPython)? Yes, PyPy's goals include the ability to have many different implementations and paradigms in one source tree. For instance one example that is hardly possible with CPython: All our object access has some kind of abstraction, that makes details like refcounting invisible to the implementation. Objects are simply accessed as in Python, and it is up to the backend to decide how to render the code for that. At the moment, we did refcounting, but really only in the lowest end of the code generator. A different code generator could employ garbage collection or even a different scheme. The same holds for Stackless. The big difference to Stackless Python is: In Stackless, I had to obey many rules. I needed to stay absolutely compatible to the C API, *and* to the C calling conventions. I also didn't want to change all too much of the source code, which is still way too much. That had several effects: For one, the result is somewhat limited, and I have a compromize implementation which uses hybrid hardware switching where I can't do better, and collaborative switching where possible. All this effort is very visible in the C code, and a PITA to implement. One of Stackless' efforts is to provide the users with nice parallel processing while writing in a naive style of tiny looping engines and to protect him from the hassles of state engines, thread locks and reactive patterns. Stackless itself suffers quite much from this and has to to this all over the place, and some more things, scattered across the C source. In PyPy, we can co a completely different (I'd say "the right") way: We do no direct Stackless specific code at all, only in the code generator, with a few help functions and creating slightly different structures. There is not that much to do to get rid of the stack, if you are completely in charge. We can play with different strategies and find what the most efficient solution is. The rest of the implementation is automatically completely collaborative, since it doesn't see that at all. In a sense, our source code is intelligent, not just literal. The compilation process itself is completely written in Python, again completely under our control how we want to express what. And all and every function can be stackless, to whatever level it makes sense. This will not only be in Python frames, the major Stackless domain, but also in builtin modules like marshal. This is a typical example of stuff written in a recursive manner in C, which suffers from the C stack limit. I rewrote it in RPython, a Python subset that we currently can translate into efficient code, and actually the implementation got nice and readable. I was tempted to rewrite this in a Stackless manner, but my examples became quite tedious and lengthy, and I saw myself getting back into some of the problems which I have in Stackless. Then I decided to defer this, because we can generate the necessary non-recursive code for everything, in a much more general way, and without spoiling the source code. The general idea is to open the C stack to introspection. Well, just quite, we can do it even simpler and continue to use the stack as it is without worring about its memory layout, but we provide a data structure for every stack frame, where all variables can be saved to and loaded from. There are lots of other ideas how to implement this. One very rough idea is to use no stack at all, but implement everything via data structures. Then a function when called just creates such a structure and fills its arguments and a pointer for the code body procedure in. Every call to a function does this, and we always return to a central dispatcher which runs the code for these structures. A little bit like continuation passing. This is the simplest possible way, but it also guarantees the worst performance. Instead of that, I am crafting a proposal which is much nicer: We do have recursive functions exactly like now, but in addition we add the structures from above and allow the system to unwind the stack into these structures just on demand. This keeps alloptimization like local variables intact most of the time, and we only collapse the stack if we get too deep of we want to switch tasks. As you might see: I have learned that stacks *do* have some advantages, because they allow for some locality, and the hardware has of course good support for it, so why not use it. But we don't pay for this to always have to depend on this stack, we just build a feature that forces every stack frame to save its state and a function pointer and just go away. Then we have the system in a state where we can easily switch threads (tasklets) or restore execution state from pickles, then continuing to run stack frames until some interruption tells us to unwind. And the nice thing: Again we don't need to think of this at all in the interpreter (well, a tiny bit) or the library functions. It all depends on what kind of code and structures we generate. The big advantage is: - we can adopt different, configurable strategies - we can make Stackless a user option - we can do this all with no change to most of the implementation What remains from Stackless is just the functionality, which will go into an almost regular module, maybe even a pure Python module, when we at some time can make this fast, too. And there can be different designs as well. It is easy to play with this, because we have the completely collaborative system, which we define by ourselves. > What is the current state of implementation? We have a self-contained, stand-alone PyPy which does not need CPython any longer. It is huge, buggy, slow, but it works. This is really really fun! On Sunday, I'm going to the Heidelberg sprint, where we will be working on a new release that includes this ability to create a binary. > > That's it. Will take a few more years to become perfect. > > Until then, I need to finda way to keep Stackless alive. > > I'm happy that I seem to get help! > > So how deep is the integration of stackless' ideas into > PyPy? The integration is incredibly deep and not in there at the same time. The idea is to allow to have it, but also to allow to go without it. Sure, many people will want it, because it allows several things to implement very efficiently. And things like generators and friends would in fact become simpler to implement right now. But the current idea is to be as independent from any concept as at all possible. The idea of PyPy is to get rid of early design decisions. This makes PyPy so abstract, complicated, and powerful. > On a slightly unrelated note have you seen PEP-342? It > looks like they gave into a coroutine implementation > after all. I'm looking forward to playing around with it :) It is the finaly say on CPython's stackless-ness. More is not possible. It is nice to yield data into a generator, which still keeps it as a limited coroutine. Things are unbalanced. This may be fine for many application, and I see a major domain of stackless vanish here: It is very possible to implement nice asynchronous communication just with yield expressions. But here the story ends. You cannot do more than this if the C stack dictates order of execution. Generators give you freedom by allowing to switch to any generator. But as soon as they are activated, there is no way but unwinding the stack if you want to do something else. Generators calling each other are stack bound as any other functions. As soon as things go deeper than one stack level, you are either back at the old save/restore nighmares when you try to emulate parallelism, or you need Stackless, which is nothing else as an automation of this nightmare as your service. And even this nightmare PyPy is going to make elegant.

Kindergarten Girl Performs Holiday Concert in Sign Language for her Deaf Parents. {Video}
I recently attended my toddler's school holiday program, so I can officially vouch for how darling these productions are in real life.
However, nothing quite prepared me for this video.
In it, five-year-old Claire Koch is captured using ASL to sign "Santa is his Name-O"—sung to the tune of "Bingo was his name-o"—so that her parents could understand the lyrics.
Claire's mother Lori Koch told Yahoo News, via email, that she wasn't expecting her daughter to sign during the concert. "The regular kids used generic hand motions while my daughter chose to use sign language, to our surprise," she said.
Koch said that she can read lips and speak and sign, while her husband, who is also deaf, uses only sign language. "ASL is the first language in our home, so our daughter has been exposed to it since birth," she said.
Koch also complimented her daughter's signing abilities, joking that she "is a much better interpreter than Nelson's fake one."
And thankfully for us, Claire's proud mom recorded it all.

My Life as a Mother, and Facing My Problem
By Debra
When I was a little girl in school, my mom had me go to a bilingual Spanish class. There were no other classes taught, just Spanish. It was very difficult for me to learn math, science, social studies in Spanish. After three years in Spanish class, I never learned how to read or write in Spanish or English. After that the teacher decided to put me in a special class. I stopped going to school at the age of 16 because I was so mad at the school system. Going through life not knowing how to read and write was very hard from me and my three kids.
I moved to Schenectady in 1998. I had my fourth son in February 1999. Three boys and one girl was a handful. I got married to my husband in September 2007. In 2008, I went to the library to get some movies to see on our television. I asked if they had any information about learning how to read and write. She gave me the phone number for Literary Volunteers. I called and spoke to June.
I met Betsy. She has been my tutor for one year. Now I read and write better. She is my best friend now – my only friend. Thank you so much for helping me Betsy.
Community Literacy Essay
by Lynne
A month ago my pocketbook was stolen from Wal-Mart. I turned around to get me a soda and someone stole it right out of my shopping cart. I felt very scared at first but then I said to my self – it was my fault.
I went to the security office and gave them the information about my pocketbook. Then I had to go to the police department by myself. I took the transit bus there. I was kind of scared as this had never happened to me before. At the police department they took my picture and fingerprinted me so they could tell that if found that it was mine.
I thought that it was my responsibility to cancel everything. First I went to the library and put a stop on my card. I had to get a new one. Then I went to the DMV so I could get a new photo ID card. I asked my friend to take me. The people at the DMV were very helpful. They took the time to explain how to fill out the application and I did it all by myself. They told me it would take 3 to 5 working business days. It took 3 weeks.
I also lost my Medicaid card so I went to the Medicaid office in Glens Falls. They asked for my name and address. Because of some of the benefits I get I had to go to Lake George. I brought my case worker with me for moral support. Things worked out well and they gave me a temporary card.
When I went to do these things for myself I felt very scared. Why was I scared?
I thought that I wouldn't be able to do it on my own. I realized it was time to try to do things on my own. Going out in the community through Literacy Volunteers has helped me to know that I could do it. When I took care of this myself I felt so proud.

by Ajaya
When I first came here I saw beautiful snow. I had never seen snow before. I saw a lot of roads here, in our country there is no good and wide road. I saw a lot of cars, everybody has their own car. In our country wealthy persons only have their own car. People from here are very helpful.
When I came here I saw the trees without leaves then I thought that all the trees were dead or old trees, but when the summer season began the trees were full of leaves then I thought they are still alive.

LINCOLN — If ever there was a time for St. Raphael Academy to find the wherewithal to overcome adversity and regain momentum, Wednesday night's Division II crossover clash with Lincoln High was it.
The Lions proved to be more-than-gritty foes, forcing the Saints into 18 turnovers and more fouls than head coach Fred Saunders had desired.
In the end, however, senior co-captain Lauren Gaj collected 15 points, 11 rebounds and two blocks while junior swing Becca Gonzalez added another 15 points, 10 boards and three assists as St. Raphael posted a tough 49-37 triumph at the Lions' Den.
The Saints had suffered a 65-63, buzzer-beating loss to Johnston at their own Alumni Hall on Monday night, doing so when the Panthers scored five straight points in the waning seconds and issued Saunders and Co. its first league loss.
"This is big," Saunders stated after his club improved to 12-4 and 10-1 in II-Central. "It certainly gave us a chance to regroup and get things going positive again. Over the past couple of weeks, our defense has not been as efficient as it was, and that's one of the things we've been working on is getting it back up to par.
"I will say this: Lincoln is a really gutsy team," he added. "We know them from when we were both in Division I, and they always come to play. We expected a tough game, so I'm happy with the effort our girls displayed."
For Lincoln, which fell to 7-9 overall and 5-6 in II-North, feisty junior Kellyn Dyer – who was all over the floor the majority of the evening – finished with 11 points and five steals, while senior Emily Bouthillette just missed a "double-double" with 11 rebounds and nine points and junior McKenzie Cavanaugh contributed 10 boards and four points.
Classmate Casie Beauchemin, the squad's point guard, also helped the cause with six points.
The Lions actually had jumped out to a 10-4 advantage after Beauchemin landed her lone trey and fellow junior Shirley Carrington netted a free throw with 9:40 remaining in the initial stanza.
They did so after dominating the defensive boards, with the aforementioned Bouthillette and Cavanaugh outjumping Gaj and fellow senior captain Christa Thomas (who didn't score but mustered five rebounds, five blocks and two steals).
SRA nevertheless needed just 7:32 to manage a 13-1 flurry. After knotting it for the second time at 10-10 on Felicia Baccari's nine-footer, Kaylee Oliver dropped a three-pointer and Becca Gonzalez (the daughter of former Shea High boys' hoop mentor Bunky Gonzalez) canned back-to-back jumpers off thefts, and the latter left the Saints ahead, 17-11, with 2:08 remaining.
Emmalee Mello drained a five-foot jumper with 9.7 ticks left, but Becca Gonzalez' trey at the buzzer gave the visitors a 22-14 cushion at the intermission.
All told, the Lions made 16 of their 24 turnovers in that half, while forcing 10 defensively.
Lincoln immediately fought back, though, when Bouthillette hit a putback off her own shot and Carrington nailed a short jumper to make it a four-point game only 2:03 into the second half.
Dyer's "three-bomb" at 12:03 sliced the deficit to 24-21, but SRA rallied, going on a 15-5 surge after Gaj planted a floating one-hander to make it 39-26 at the 7:03 mark.
Yet again, Lincoln edged its way back into it; Dyer landed a pair of foul shots, then netted an outstanding bob-and-weave layup with 5:29 remaining to make it 39-32.
Baccari, though, closed out a conventional three-point play, and the Lions couldn't tighten the gap to less than eight over the remaining minutes. Part of that stemmed from the hosts landing only three of 10 free throws in the first half; they finished only nine-for-21 from the charity stripe (43 percent).
"We just didn't hit the big shot when we needed it," noted Lincoln head coach Andy Hallam. "We were getting some good defensive stops, and that team scores a lot of points, and our goal was to hold them under 50, slow them down.
"We didn't give up, and that's why I love coaching this team," he added. "They're a tough bunch. It's just that, sometimes, it seems there's a lid on the bucket. We get spurts of awesome play, and then we go on droughts that we can't overcome. That's what happened here."
