The fire at the Iowa City Landfill has broken through the containment line established late Saturday and early Sunday by landfill workers and the Iowa City Fire Department, according to a news release from the city.
Now, most of the remaining lining system for the landfill is now burning, producing additional smoke. The lining system is made from shredded tires, which is the reason for the thick, black smoke that is emanating from the landfill on the far southwest side of Iowa City.
Meanwhile, the southerly winds that were blowing the plume of smoke northward have now shifted, bending the ...

Johannesburg - A 26-year-old man was found dead in an open veld in Thabong on Sunday, Free State police said.
Malefetsane Mbena was discovered near Erfdeel bridge by a passer-by, said Warrant Officer Malebo Khosana.
"He sustained multiple stab wounds all over the body, at the back, chest, his head was also hacked and his throat was severely cut with sharp objects."

Cory Monteith: Things Will Be 'Tough' For Finn & Rachel On Glee
'Glee' stars Cory Monteith and Lea Michele arrive at the Versace Haute-Couture show as part of Paris Fashion Week at the Ritz hotel in Paris on July 1, 2012 -- Getty Images
When "Glee" returns this fall, high school graduate Rachel Berry will be off pursuing her dream in New York City, so fans shouldn't expect smooth sailing for the show's super couple.
"It's gonna be tough," Cory told AccessHollywood.com at Comic-Con 2012 of Finn and Rachel's relationship. "I don't think it's gonna be what people expect. I think it's gonna be south of expected."
PLAY IT NOW: Cory Monteith: How Will Glee Evolve In Season 4?
Rachel (Lea Michele) will be heading to NYADA in Season 4, where her schooling will include dance teaching under instructor Cassandra July, played by Kate Hudson.
Asked if Rachel's NYC base will mean Finn will get some NYC scenes, Cory replied, "I hope so."
VIEW THE PHOTOS: Hollywood Hunks At Comic-Con 2012
Also seemingly headed for a rocky romantic road are Blaine and Kurt, the latter of which is set to encounter Sarah Jessica Parker, playing a kooky editor of Vogue.com, Access Hollywood previously revealed.
"Blaine's boyfriend -- it might be along distant relationship, so [we could have] those natural pitfalls that happen when that's introduced in a relationship," Darren Criss said of what's to come for Blaine and Kurt.
Back in Lima, Ohio, at McKinley, though, Darren said he doesn't expect Blaine to head up the New Directions with many of the gang having graduated.

"Artie and Tina have been there since the beginning...and were the original 'Glee' cast people that people did fall in love with," Darren said.
"I like being part of the team, I like it being an ensemble," he continued. "I don't like getting overly featured. It makes me nervous. I like having somebody next to you that you can play with."

text: 1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data In a physics lab experiment a student immersed 191 one-cent coins (each having a mass of 3.00 g) in boiling water, at a temperature of 100 degrees C. After they reached thermal equilibrium, she fished them out and dropped them into an amount of water of mass 0.275 kg at a temperature of 17.0 degrees C in an insulated container of negligible mass. What was the final temperature of the coins? (One-cent coins are made of a metal alloy - mostly zinc - with a specific heat capacity of 390 J/(kg * K).) Use 4190 J/(kg* K) for the heat capacity of the water. 2. Relevant equations Q=mc(deltaT) Q1 + Q2=0 3. The attempt at a solution I'm not sure where you can get a workable system of equations from this problem. I tried finding the Q of the coins, which I found to be Q=(191*.003kg)(390)(T-100) where T=the final temperature of the coins. And the Q of Water: Q=(.275)(4190)(T-17). You also know that the Q of water and the Q of the coins must be equal to 0 because they are in an insulated container. Because the water is heated and the coins are cooled, you know that the Q for water is positive and that Qwater=Qcoins, However, they have different final temperatures and I'm not sure how to find one in terms of the other so I can solve the equation I've come up with. Please help!

Jay and Barbara Snyder, proprietors of Hollyhock Hill, are celebrating 50 years of living and working together this weekend. / (Photo provided by Jay Snyder)
At a time when many couples don't make it to their 10th wedding anniversary, Jay and Barbara Snyder's 50th on Saturday is an auspicious occasion for sure.
But there's more: The Snyders, who own Indianapolis' landmark fried chicken restaurant Hollyhock Hill, also are toasting 50 years of working side by side at their restaurant.
"She pretty much does the decorating and the dining room, and I kind of oversee the kitchen and do the book work," said Jay, adding that his wife is good at adding a "lady's touch" to the business.
Even before they graduated from Broad Ripple High School and married in 1962, the couple started working at Hollyhock Hill, which opened in 1928. Barbara worked at the business as a teenager, helping her mother, Vivian Johnson. So when she started dating Jay, she helped him get a job, too.
"I started out as a yard boy and then worked my way into the kitchen," he said.
About 30 years later, in 1993, they took sole ownership of Hollyhock Hill, which caters to Indianapolis families as well as the occasional celebrity. (Actress Ashley Judd and her husband, three-time Indianapolis 500 winner Dario Franchitti, are regulars when they are in town every May.)
But don't go to the restaurant at 8110 N. College Ave. to wish the Snyders a happy anniversary this weekend. They'll be celebrating in Las Vegas with their two sons and their wives.
They'd love to see you when they get back, though.
"We still have some of the same customers," Jay said. "Kids I used to put in high chairs are coming with their families now."
Actress to receive wildlife award
Add another notable name to the list of conservationists and celebrities who will be in town at the end of the month for the Indianapolis Prize gala.
Actress Jane Alexander, the former chairwoman of the National Endowment for the Arts and the first Indianapolis Prize Gala host in 2006, will be honored at the gala as the first recipient of the Jane Alexander Global Wildlife Ambassador Award, given to a person who is considered a vocal champion of wildlife conservation.
Alexander, who is known for roles in "Kramer vs. Kramer," "The Ring" and "The Cider House Rules," has served as a trustee of the Wildlife Conservation Society and a founding board member of the American Bird Conservancy.
The Sept. 29 gala will be at the JW Marriott. To purchase tickets, visit Indianapolisprize.org.
Lobsterpalooza nets $40,000 for opera
The Indianapolis Opera netted $40,000 with its unique seafood-eating fundraiser Friday.
The third annual Lobsterpalooza, which (for $125 a ticket) offers attendees Maine lobster -- trucked from the East Coast by Foster's Downeast Clambake, fostersclambake.com -- and all of the trimmings, attracted 450 to the Basile Opera Center.
"It's grown every year," said John Pickett, executive director. Partygoers were a mix of the opera's regular supporters and some new faces from the Meridian-Kessler neighborhood, he said.

I'd love to be sitting on that beach in your profile pic with you planning our afternoon and evening. We'd walk along the beach holding hands and then go home to shower and get dressed for a casual cafe dinner - probably Italian - and then walk back to our place and make sweet passion filled love until the sun came up and then fall asleep in each other's embrace.
Thanks for the request!

Three Olympic venues could be dropped
Three 2012 Olympic Games venues could be ditched after the government ordered accountancy firm KPMG to carry out a 'top-level' review as to whether they give 'value for money'.
Olympics Minister Tessa Jowell has commissioned KPMG to look into Greenwich Park, which will hold the equestrian events, the shooting venue at the Royal Artillery Barracks in Woolwich, and the basketball arena in the Olympic Park.
Speaking to the Evening Standard, Jowell said: 'When you take the costs for each of these venues, it seems like a lot of money to a lot of people. It is a sort of testing-to-destruction to see whether that spending can be justified.'
According the Standard, Jowell said it was 'possible but unlikely' that the venues could be scrapped as a result of the review.
Alternatives for each of the venues could be Hickstead or Badminton for the equestrian events, Dartford for the shooting competition, and the Millennium Dome for the basketball, which is also hosting the finals.
It is understood the KPMG review is likely to last several months, and any decision will have to be ratified by the various sports' international governing bodies before being formally approved by the International Olympic Committee at its congress in Copenhagen next year.

Game Review on Jan 24th, 2012
Pretty interesting. It was entertaining to play, not extremely fun, but well. Pretty weird artistic design, and weird as f*ck soundtrack. Nevertheless, a good choice when you don't know what to play.
Game Review on Jan 4th, 2012
I remember installing alien arena 2004 when it came out... I had a wonderful time playing that(mainly because i had no games, and i had a really bad computer), but although it has improved A LOT, it's just too cheesy for 2011. But just like any game, there's no way it can stay in shape for over 7 years. Too many graphical effects; not enough graphical beauty, and an old(classic, call it what you will) gameplay style that adds absolutely nothing new to gaming. That said, it's a really nice free game, but i bet people would rather play Quake games than a Quake clon.

Stylish, contemporary, and fully-loaded with all the usual amenities, this remote getaway is a popular family destination and just minutes from the beach. Stay in one of the large rooms on the hotel side, with plush linens, free Wi-Fi, and balconies with great views, or on the resort side in a more modest (but still spacious) condominium. The light-filled, marble-floored lobby is always bustling with excited children headed to the kids' game room and adults gathering to listen to live music ensembles. This is a great option for families looking for a lively but luxurious vacation.

The value of implicit guarantees has declined from its peak at the height of the financial crisis, which is consistent with progress made regarding the bank regulatory reform agenda, as one would expect that many of the reform measures imply a more limited value of implicit guarantees for bank debt. Implicit guarantees persist however and their value continues to be significant.

Monarchianism (mono--"one"; arche--"rule") was an error concerning the nature of God that developed in the second century A.D. It arose as an attempt to maintain monotheism and refute tritheism. Unfortunately, it also contradicts the orthodox doctrine of the Trinity. Monarchianism teaches that there is one God as one person: the Father. Please see Heresies for more information.

Oviedo Chickens
Oviedo is a small town here in Florida. It's downtown is a hub for several bike trails and cycling routes. Oviedo's Downtown is home of a large population of wild chickens. They roam around downtown (specially around a Popeyes) and it's virtually impossible to go there and not notice them.
They have their own section in Wikipedia (clicky) and even a small documentary that was part of the Florida Film Festival in 2009:
Now... if I where a chicken, I would not hang out around a Popeyes... just saying

In 2012, the average American ate 14.4 pounds of seafood—reflecting a slight drop from the 15 pounds eaten in 2011. However, this does not necessarily mean that we want to eat less fish. These figures are a result of an increasing U.S. population and a decrease in commercial fishery catches used for food, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
Our appetite for seafood is expected to surpass the slowing rate of global harvesting from the wild, making the success of the U.S. aquaculture industry even more crucial in meeting the demand for fish and shellfish. Aquaculture, also known as "fish farming," is the propagation and rearing of animals and plants in aquatic environments, under controlled or selected conditions.
More than 91 percent of the seafood Americans consume is imported. While about half of all seafood consumed in the United States is produced from aquaculture, only about 5 percent of this seafood comes from the United States, which produces oysters, clams, mussels, catfish, salmon, trout, and yellow perch. As a nation, we are the world's third largest consumers of seafood, yet we rank 15th in total aquaculture production, according to a 2012 United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization report, "The State of World Fisheries and Aquaculture."
Although the United States is a small producer in the global aquaculture industry, it is a leader in advanced technology and has world-class research capacity. It has the natural resources, markets, and feed grains essential for commercial success, too.
Like crop, livestock, and poultry production, aquaculture is an agricultural industry, with a promising future for growth driven by innovations and entrepreneurs. It is the fastest growing animal-protein sector worldwide and is the most efficient animal-protein production system.
World economies will continue to compete for available seafood, both wild harvested and farmed, as demand increases. Simplifying regulatory barriers and streamlining the permit process can stimulate more investment and growth as demand for high-quality aquaculture products increases. Aquaculture investors are looking for locations near large markets, while small businesses are supplying local markets. The lack of access to sites in marine waters is creating strong markets worldwide for many farm-raised shellfish products. A concerted effort among governmental agencies can help make the United States an attractive country for investment to supply these markets.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture supports research through its Agricultural Research Service aquaculture national program to enhance production of freshwater and marine aquatic animals. Scientists investigate fish health, nutrition, genetic improvement, reproduction and early development, and production systems. They have recently started examining the development of ready-to-eat products and uses for processing trimmings.
ARS research includes breeding programs, in partnership with universities, to develop fast-growing finfish and shellfish that also have enhanced disease resistance, improved yield, and better reproduction. For example, the article "Identifying Yellow Perch Gender To Improve Production" of this issue highlights some of ARS's work with yellow perch. Research also involves collaborations with ARS national programs dedicated to natural resources and sustainable agriculture, nutrition and food safety, and quality and utilization of agricultural products.
To help U.S. fish farmers remain internationally competitive, ARS scientists examine methods to reduce production costs, which include investigating alternative protein sources for fish feed and developing more efficient production systems and practices. This research helps to improve the quality, safety, and variety of aquaculture products available to consumers.
New projects under way are focusing on the health aspects of fish oil in the human diet. Farmed salmon is a main source of the fish oil consumed by people in the United States. Fish physiologists at ARS salmon and trout laboratories are working with ARS nutrition experts to explore the nutritional and health value of fish.
In Hagerman, Idaho, scientists are looking at genetic differences in the ability of trout to accumulate healthy fish oils—omega-3 fatty acids—in their flesh. They are investigating the potential to selectively breed fish for enhanced capacity, on the same feed, to yield a product higher in nutritional value.
Americans eat an average of one seafood meal a week. However, USDA's dietary guidelines recommend eating twice as much as that, because research suggests it improves cardiovascular health. It's also a good idea to choose seafood grown in the United States because of our strict environmental and food safety regulations. Buying U.S.-grown fish and shellfish ensures that consumers are getting food that meets rigorous state and federal standards while supporting America's aquaculture farmers.

Short story with vampiric mythology.
Nicolas took his time in wrapping his arm as he prepared to train in the courtyard with his father. He knew deep inside that his father was a powerful adversary but at the same time the fact that he could down his father with his sword to his neck was disappointing at times. He thought his father was supposed to be stronger than their son. Then again Nicolas believed that a child is always supposed to be a better product of the parent.
When he was finished wrapping his arm with adhesive cloth he stood and stretched, picking up his sword and yawning. The sword was a long sword holding a beautiful silver tint up the blade. The hilt was gold and in the hilt there was a circular gem also holding a glamorous silver tint. Nicolas secretly called his sword Max but never openly admitted to doing that. It was funny because he remembered when he was younger when his father trained with some of the soldiers that his father called his sword Reamus.
Nicolas walked out upon the courtyard in which he and his father were to train. It was sad that such a beautiful courtyard would eventually be cut away by his father and Nicolas' wild slashing and clashing of swords.
Nicolas turned to view the full spectrum of the yard's beauty, but as he turned a large sword came into his view coming down upon him. Nicolas quickly dodged it and looked to see who his attacker was. Suspecting that it was his father in a black hood and cape he attacked back with a few slashes to the mid-section in which his attacker dodged, only to come back with a powerful kick to Nicolas' jaw. As Nicolas fell to the ground he barrel rolled and gained his footing again, only to see another boot come to his face and smash into his temple.
As he rolled onto the ground a few yards away he realized that his attacker was much stronger than his father which alarmed him. As he stood his attacker charged him sword swaying down. Within himself he drew a deep awaited power he wished to always use, but only in the right circumstance.
He lifted his hand palm facing outward toward his charging attacker as he whispered in the ancient language a spell, "Graihu." The attacker was thrown like a sock doll toward the opposite wall crashing into it breaking it apart. He was down.

Professional, quick, and trouble free.
Was great! Would definitely do it again!
Everything was really ok. May be i ll contact you for others vacation tours
They faxed the pickup time to the hotel, which ended up under our door. Pickup was on-time and our driver was friendly and efficient.
Excellent service which ran exactly to plan.
On a short notice.
It was very well organized.
The Valet attendant was easy to locate on our arrival at the Airport and showed a lot of courtesy.
The Driver showed a lot of knowledge and we enjoyed the tour.
We were very much satisfied and Rate the experience "10" out of 10
Great transfer service and well worth the cost
Efficient, easy to use.
Easy to find the right area at HK airport,. Driver informative. Great to use after a long flight.
Brian S
Perfect - how nice was it to get off of a 12 hour flight and be picked up after customs? Agent met me as promised and took me to the car. Car was very clean and well appointed - 30 minutes and I was at my hotel. I highly recommend!!
I neede to make a last minute change and the flexibility by the tour was very accommodating. The driver was extremely friendly even though there was a language barrier. The tour Gide at the Panda Park ea very knowledgeable and made the experience highly enjoyable. I can't wait to come again!!!!
Very efficient service to our hotel.
All went like clockwork. Could have not been better.
Excellent service all round. When web based booking went down mid course and I was ready to abandon the booking an automated follow up email came through with other contact info. I then rang the call centre who attended to the booking and the limo pick up worked out perfectly.
My transfer from HKIA was comfortable and efficient thanks to a careful and courteous driver.
Well Done Viator (again)!!
The limo service both ways was excellent.
The traffic in Hong Kong is not as crazy as other parts of Asia. That said it is still very busy and many of the taxis are old, some don't have seatbelts and the drivers drive fast and aggressively. The public transport system in Hong Kong is fantastic but it is not so easy to navigate with luggage and not the preferred transport if you get off a plane that arrives late in the evening. The company that provided our transport was great. The car was very comfortable, the ground staff at the airport were welcoming and helpful. And the driver drove very safely. Viator doesn't provide the option to book. a Hong Kong hotel to airport journey at the end of the holiday but we were so happy with the service we contacted the service provider directly ourselves and organised a return transfer.
I was surprised a lot. Someone greeted us at the airport and escorted us to our driver with a car that was a Mercedes. I highly recommend a round trip. We only did one way. Next time I'll know better.
my transportation from airport to hotel was very impressive, the four days spent in Hong Kong was fabulous
All went like clockwork . Tour east people were not worried at short delay resulting from an unplanned meeting. Very worthwhile, convenient service.
Only way to go. On time, clean. What more is there to say?
Very professional, the guide was waiting for us and put us on a luxury coach. Myself and my family had it all to ourselves.
As I have said before, the convenience of a car waiting for you,
at a busy airport, improve a trip. Hong Kong is great!. Do not keep it waiting.
This was an excellent way to arrive in Hong Kong, especially after a very delayed departure to travel. Reception was excellent, driver very good, and what is not to like about riding in superb, cushioned comfort of a Mercedes Benz!

For sale is a hard to find blue and white earthenware Pratt Ware vase.
The vase is of an ovoid bottle shape with a flared rim and is decorated in the Pratt Ware blue and white Italian transfer pattern. This pattern depicts an Italianate village in a setting of mountains, a lake with fishermen and a rural scene. The base of the vase carries a transfer printed backstamp identical to one found on the base of a vase by F R Pratt held at the English National Trust property Attingham Park, Shropshire (National Trust Inventory Number 607662.1) dating to approximately 1840. The vase we have for sale most probably dates to a later period, somewhere around 1890-1920.
The vase is approximately 6 &1/2 inches high (16.5cm) and is in a very good antique condition other than a little bit of very light age related crazing and a some light rubbing related wear to the pattern of the rim.

Research and Markets Adds Report: The Global Enterprise Local Area Network Switches Market 2011-2015
Nov 09, 2012 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Enterprise Local Area Network Switches Market 2011-2015" report to its offerings.
In a release, Research and Markets noted that report highlights include: One of the key factors contributing to this market growth is the increasing adoption of smart devices. The Global Enterprise Local Area Network Switches market has also been witnessing the increasing adoption of 10 GbE switches. However, the issues regarding network security could pose a challenge to the growth of this market.
Key vendors dominating this market space include Cisco Systems Inc., Hewlett-Packard Co. (HP), and Juniper Networks Inc.
Other vendors mentioned in the report: Brocade Communications Systems Inc., IBM Corp., and Alcatel-Lucent.
Commenting on the report, an analyst from TechNavio's Networking team said: ''Organizations are increasingly concerned about the increase in the amount of data flowing through their networks. Networks are carrying large amounts of packet data because organizations use the internet for their day-to-day operations to help their staff and customers. In addition, the network traffic is increasing due to the increasing use of instant messaging, voice over IP (VoIP) and video conferencing. Additionally, the efficiency and predictability of a network decreases as the load on the network increases. Hence, organizations are now depending heavily on switches to manage the network traffic more efficiently. Since switches are able to interconnect different networking devices in various networks, packet data can be transferred more efficiently. Additionally, switches are able to store information, and with the availability of various network devices, the transmission of packet data through a network is quicker.'' Further, the report discusses that one of the most significant challenges for this market is issues regarding network security.

text: An American Airlines flight from Dallas was delayed in 2012 after a flight attendant began "ranting" over the PA system that the plane had technical difficulties and was likely to crash. A colleague attempted to reassure passengers, who became understandably unnerved. The plane returned to the gate and the flight attendant was removed.

BROOMFIELD, Colo., Feb. 19, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- A new Webroot® threat report details the rise in potentially threatening mobile applications and reinforces the need for IT managers and employees to be aware of mobile threats. Conducted by Webroot, a leader in internet security software as a service, the report indicates that as employees continue to use their own devices and personal applications for work purposes, more threats are introduced into the workplace, putting company networks at risk. The report also provides suggestions and best practices to reduce the risk to corporate data from employee-owned mobile devices.
Key findings from the Webroot Mobile Threat Report include:-- 384% increase in total threats to Android devices in 2013. -- 42% of applications for Android analyzed were classified as malicious, unwanted, or suspicious. -- Infection risk comparisons between the Android and iOS® platforms. -- 29.3% of all tracked SMS infections stem from gaming applications.
The new report, based on data collected by the Webroot Threat Research team, analyzed more than 5.9 million mobile applications (apps), 31,000 infections, nearly 125,000 Lost Device Protection activations, and infection rates from millions of customers. The increased risk is caused by malicious apps including those which require rooting the device, send premium SMS messages, and collect all available data. The report stresses the importance of downloading apps from reputable sources such as Google Play and iTunes®. Many third party app markets do not apply strict security standards and can unknowingly host malicious files.
"Consumers are very trusting of mobile applications such as Facebook, Twitter and Angry Birds - they are apps they know and have used for some time. However, it's the thousands of unverified apps, often found on third party markets or P2P networks, that put users at risk," said Grayson Milbourne, security intelligence director at Webroot. "The report shows that this line of thinking is dangerous; poor app choices can lead to the compromise of an entire corporate network. The need to secure mobile devices will continue to grow as the discovery of new exploits and malicious apps increase--all driven by a clear focus on mobile platforms within the cybercrime community."
The proliferation of mobile devices, particularly personal devices used in the work environment--known as "bring your own device" or BYOD--can expose corporate networks to higher risk and the continued growth of the platform for Android is of particular concern. The data indicated a nearly 4X increase in the volume of potentially threatening apps for Android in 2013, while a recent report from Strategy Analytics indicated Android powered 79 percent of all smartphones shipped during the same period. While allowing such devices to access company resources aids productivity, the increased potential for compromise opens up a risk vector for which IT personnel must take into account.
The report also draws analysis from more than 31,000 sample infections to Android devices and reveals compelling results. To get a copy of the new Webroot Mobile Threat Report and read the comprehensive analysis of current mobile threats, visit www.webroot.com/mobile-threat-report-2014 or visit Webroot at the RSA Conference 2014 in San Francisco on February 24 - 28, 2014, booth #832. Webroot representatives will be available to discuss the report and demonstrate Webroot® mobile security intelligence solutions.

City police responsed to a call from the caretaker of the resident of an Underhill Ave. home at about 7 a.m., police stated via press release. Police found a deceased woman inside 22 Underhill Ave, City Police Detective Lt. Ed Freer said. Neighbors and family said a 99-year-old woman named Fannie Gumbinger lived alone inside. Police said that the "caller reported suspicious circumstances at the home which alarmed her and caused her to call police." Police have not publicly confirmed the identity of the deceased.
A 19-year-old Brewster man was killed after the Pontiac Firebird he was driving plowed through a flashing red light at a busy intersection in Zeeland, Mich. and collided with another vehicle early Tuesday, police in this city said.

iPhone apps
- 2007-07-30
- Trackback URL
- apple
You know, I've been reading a lot about all the new iPhone stuff that hackers have been able to coerce iPhones to do. File system access, ssh onto the iPhone and most recently compiling new apps onto it. I find this incredibly amazing and while the technology is still fledgeling it is still the very beginning of this – I have no doubt that sooner before later significant apps will be possible if hackers are allowed to run their course.
What I am curious to see is Apple's reaction. I can see two possibilities. One, that would be par for Apple's course, is that they start cracking down on all this technology. Ceases and desists to all the places that are publishing the information on how to do these things and providing the code to do it. The other would be to get their SDK out into people's hands soon. I'm hoping for the latter. I don't see them ignoring this for too long – the cat is out of the bag, pandora's box has opened and nobody is getting the cat back in the bag nor Apple's evils back in the box.
The first method will slow it down – but there's just no stopping it. I hope that Apple recognizes that and opts for the second. I'll just cross my fingers for now and keep on watching – both the hackers and Jobs.

I am trying django on heroku, following the official tutorial and stuck at the

Phoenix Suns
Suns owner Robert Sarver stands with his front office
Three years ago, the Phoenix Suns were in the Western Conference Finals.
Led by Alvin Gentry, a team featuring Steve Nash, Amare Stoudemire, Jason Richardson and Grant Hill won 54 regular season games and two playoff series before bowing out to the eventual champion L.A. Lakers in six games.
Shortly thereafter the Suns saw general manager Steve Kerr depart, ultimately being replaced by Lon Babby and Lance Blanks.
Now the team is 13-28 and in the Western Conference's basement, with just three players left from the WCF team and a new coach.
So even though it seems like the Suns are trending in the wrong direction, Suns owner Robert Sarver says his confidence in the front office he's assembled has not been shaken, even with the questionable hire of Lindsey Hunter to replace Gentry.
"Time will tell whether some of those decisions are the right decisions or not," Sarver told Arizona Sports 620's Burns and Gambo Wednesday. "This is a business where not all decisions are right. Some are right, some are wrong."
Sarver said the decision to go with Hunter was Blanks', because he said he himself "is not in the position a position of telling general managers who to hire as a coach."
He did say he has the ability to veto the GM's decision, but after doing some research he was on board with the hire.
But as of now, the Suns are not getting the benefit of the doubt. Media and fans alike seem to think the team is heading in the wrong direction, and have little faith that things will turn around in the near future.
But that's the goal, and Sarver explained part of that involves a culture change, which can be difficult at times.
"If Lance and Lon wanted to do the easy thing and the popular thing, they wouldn't have done that," he said of promoting Hunter. "I want people working for me who are committed to doing what they think is in the best interest of moving this franchise forward. That's what they did."
Sarver notes the questionable nature, though.
"Whether they made the right decision or not, time will tell," he said. "In this business everybody has a track record, and time tells and you can go back and check on it.
"But they made what they thought was the best decision in terms of who can help motivate these guys, who can believe in these guys, who these guys will believe in, who they'll play hard for and who will establish the type of culture and systems in place that will give us the best opportunity for success the last 41 games."
That's when Sarver — and the Suns — would prefer one judges the decision to replace Gentry with Hunter.
"Listen, not all popular choices are right and not all right choices are popular."

Mordechai Beck is a journalist in Jerusalem.
After more than a decade of rancorous debates and court decisions over the election of two chief rabbis of Jerusalem, Aryeh Stern and Shlomo Amar were chosen for the roles.
By tradition Jerusalem has two chief rabbis, one who is Sephardic and one who is Ashkenazi. Sephardic Jews descend from communities in Spain and Northern Africa. Ashkenazi communities developed in Central Europe.
An interview with Rabbi David Rosen
"While Israel has more interfaith activity pro-rata than anywhere else in the world, all such activity involves a tiny percent of the population."
Orthodox rabbis reckon with Christianity
One rabbi noted that almost all heads of U.S. churches have visited Israel. And many of them have rethought attempts to convert Jews.

About The Brand
Küryakyn has been in the business of improving and beautifying motorcycles since before many of today's riders "ran 'er through the gears" for the first time. Unlike a large segment of the industry, they learned that the bandwagon usually doesn't lead the parade. Küryakyn innovation breeds well thought out parts that work, fit, and most of all, look great! Each Küryakyn accessory is intended to look fantastic by itself, but is usually a member of group of parts that combine to create a "look". This allows each rider to add accessories a couple at a time, or go for the full complement all at once, without the end result looking like an arbitrary hodgepodge of parts that can leave you wondering if they were all supposed to go on the same bike.

I have a test environment that uses Ruby to drive a server over an https connection. Since the latest versions of Ruby refuse to connect to an https server with an invalid certificate (see this earlier question of mine) and I would like to start using a newer version of Ruby, I am trying to set up a valid certificate.
I have created a CA certificate to use (there are multiple servers being tested so this seems the easier way), and have successfully used it to sign a new certificate which has been installed on a server and is being used. I have added the CA certificate to the browser store and it (the browser) will now connect to the server without complaint. So I am confident my certificates are valid and set up correctly.
I know that Ruby does not use the same store as the browser. I have used the CA file available here to test connecting to other (public) servers (set using the
Net::HTTP#ca_file= method) and this also works.
What I cannot get to work is Ruby connecting to my server using my certificate. I have tried various ways of pointing it at my certificate (including adding my certificate to the file linked above) and it always gives the same error:
SSL_connect SYSCALL returned=5 errno=0 state=SSLv2/v3 read server hello A (OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError)
What do I have to do to convince Ruby to accept my certificate and connect to my server?
The code I am using is:
require 'net/https'
uri = URI.parse("https://hostname/index.html")
http = Net::HTTP.new(uri.host, uri.port)
http.use_ssl = true
http.verify_mode = OpenSSL::SSL::VERIFY_PEER
http.ca_file = "My CA cert file"
request = Net::HTTP::Get.new(uri.path)
response = http.request(request)
I'm assuming this is wrong somehow. What I want to know is, what should I do to use my CA certificate?

Online travel operator Orbitz Worldwide Inc forecast higher-than-expected revenue in the current quarter as an improving economy spurs spending on air travel and hotel bookings.
Orbitz' shares fell 1.1 percent to $8.96 in early trading on Thursday. The stock rose as much as 4.7 premarket after the company reported a higher-than-expected rise in revenue for the second quarter ended June 30.
The Chicago company, which operates travel booking websites under the Orbitz and CheapTickets brands, said it expects revenue of $249 million-$254 million for the quarter ending September.
Analysts on average were expecting $242.3 million, according to Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S.
Orbitz earned $6.9 million, or 6 cents per share, in the second quarter. A year earlier, it's profit of $561,000 included an $18.1 million write-off.
Revenue rose 10 percent to $248.1 million, beating the average analysts estimate of $245.5 million.
Gross bookings, or the dollar value of all travel services purchased, increased 9 percent to $3.4 billion.
Revenue from airline tickets rose 5 percent, while revenue from hotels and vacation packages rose 15 percent and 12 percent, respectively.
Up to Wednesday's close of $9.06, Orbitz' shares had risen just over 26 percent this year.
