I always thought that Tung Chee-Hwa looked like he stuck his finger in a power socket. Not so much in the picture you've posted, though... Nice guy, but he wasn't so great at the whole Chief Executive thing.
Also, to become him, you'd have to be a Beijing crony. Stay good, Dipper! Stay good!

NEW YORK (AP) — There's a new baby in Tori Spelling's house.
The actress gave birth Thursday to a boy named Finn Davey. His stats? Six pounds, 6 ounces and 20-inches from head to toe. Spelling made the announcement on her website and on Twitter.
The baby is the 39-year-old's fourth child with 44-year-old actor-husband Dean McDermott.
Spelling gave birth to daughter Hattie 10 months ago. She also has a son Liam, 5; and a daughter, Stella, 4. McDermott has a son, Jack, from a previous marriage.
Spelling said on her website this week that the pregnancy would probably be her last, although she said she was "in love with pregnancy" and called it "the most important job" in her life.

I've never heard of Camp Oest before. What's the big deal?
Camp Oest is a Nationally Accredited resident Cub Scout summer camp run by the Baltimore Area Council. The program is energetic, varied, and engaging for Cub Scouts, and is differentiated by rank so that activities are age-appropriate. At every session, Scouts get to shoot, swim, boat, craft, sing, enjoy the fun antics of the staff, and much more! You and your Cub will be able to participate in the following programs:
- Pool
- Pier
- Shooting Sports (BB's, Archery, Sling Shots, Action Archery / BB)

Packs, dens, and individual parent/son teams will be assigned to campsites upon arrival, with everyone from the same Pack sharing the same campsite. Every program area and campsite has its own pavilion for shelter and shaded instruction, and there is a large dining pavilion where meals are served. Program runs throughout the morning, afternoon, and evening, with a siesta after lunch and a snack before bed.
There aren't enough hours in the day to do it all!
Swimming, shooting, rowing, fishing, crafting, fire-building, hiking, playing and singing are only a few of the high-energy programs your son will participate in daily. Each day is full of fun activities for your son to participate in, experience something new, and have fun.
Did you know you can come to Camp Oest even if your Den or Pack doesn't?
At Camp Oest, we welcome entire Dens or Packs, but you can also come with just your son. We'll put you in a provisional Pack with other families like yours, so you still get to bond with your son and he still gets to enjoy the program and have the experience of a lifetime!
Eating, sleeping, and going to the bathroom.

- Canvas tents with sturdy cots are provided in each campsite. You may bring your own equipment if you wish…there is plenty of space to set it up!

PROVIDENCE, R.I. � Republican candidate for governor Ken Block is making no apologies for his response to a question, posed to him during a Rhode Island Public Radio debate Tuesday, about which elected official in Rhode Island he most admires.
His answer in the closing moments of the GOP candidates� debate: �I can�t think of one.��
On Wednesday, Block campaign manager Jeff Britt explained what Block � the founder and 2010 gubernatorial candidate of the Moderate Party, now running as a Republican - meant by that in the face of criticism from his primary opponent, Cranston mayor Allan Fung, and state GOP Chairman Mark Smiley.
�I was disappointed,'' Smiley said.
�This is a slap in the face of all Rhode Island Republicans,�� chimed a statement from the Fung for governor campaign. �Ken Block owes an apology to all Republicans.��
�Rhode Island Republicans simply can't trust Ken Block to care about anything but his own political ambition,�� the Fung statement said. �He shows no respect even for the few elected officials who have supported him and shows no respect for local Republicans in office.��
Britt explained Block�s thinking: �Ken admires cancer researchers and people who make a difference,�� such as local businessman John Hazen White Jr., owner of Taco Inc.
�Politicians are not as a rule who he admires,�� Britt said.
Earlier in the day on Tuesday, Block had appeared at a press conference with two Republican state lawmakers: Sen. Nicholas Kettle and Rep. Patricia Morgan, a former state GOP chair. He joined them in denouncing the intervention of the governor and legislature in the financial operation of the financially-troubled Central Coventry Fire District, over the objections of local voters.
Talking about that press conference, Britt said: �Hey he spent an hour with Patricia Morgan earlier in the day, fighting the good fight. Does he think she�s fantastic? Absolutely. Does he think she�s right? Yes.��
But Britt said that was not how Block interpreted the question. �Hey they�re doing their job. They get elected to office to go do their job. They are not points of admiration.��
�Does he say, hey, I wish I had thought of this person or that person, sure,�� Britt said. �But what he also said was��I�m being honest. You asked me a question of who I admire. I admire cancer researchers�If you ask me to put a name on it, I admire John White.
�He�s got all the reasons in the world to sit on a beach in the Bahamas and do nothing and what�s he do? He spends his time and energy and money, not only running his company but trying to fix Rhode Island. That�s who I admire�.��
Smiley�s reaction to Block�s on air comment:��I cannot imagine that he does not admire the tiny group of Republican General Assembly [legislators] that have worked so hard these past 2 years getting things like inquiries into the 38 Studio�s debacle moving (Rep. Mike Chippendale and Senator Dawson Hodgson), removal of the Master Lever (Senator Dawson Hodgson and Rep. Doreen Costa), and defending the taxpayers in the Coventry Fire district issue (Senator Nick Kettle and Rep Patricia Morgan). �
�It very difficult to accomplish anything when you are outnumbered 102 to 11,� Smiley said.

Product was as described. Installation was quick and easy. Looks good under the hood too!. I was a little disappointed that there was no noticeable difference in performance or mileage. It is hard to justify a purchase that claims results but is difficult to quantify. I measured in town and over the road. It could just be my expectations were to high. In all fairness, I am not getting worse mileage so small changes over time will make a difference.

Yet another Drew & Lowell update
The Red Sox face uncertainty about how the injuries to both J.D. Drew and Mike Lowell will affect their postseason roster. Drew has moved from frustration to confusion regarding the herniated disc in his back and how it has affected his back. We cant really figure it out, he said today, sitting down and facing his locker. The Red Sox and Drew, who was out of the lineup again today, dont seem to think hell play again before the playoffs.
I think everybodys concerned, especially myself, Drew said. You know I played the other night, played three innings, didn't feel great by any means, but I got through it. Felt decent when I left the game, thought I'd be ready for the next day, I was stiff. Tried to go out and run some sprints and that just kind of set everything off. I had to come in, I tried to hit in the cage for a few swings and that didn't work out too well. Came in, did some treatment, was pretty stiff.
Drews back, to understate, is on-again, off-again. How was it feeling today?
I have stiffness when I wake up, stiffness when I get out of the car, Drew said. But I'm able to do some things as far as like coming in, getting some work in, and doing some treadmill stuff. I was able to hit in the cage a little bit yesterday, so I'm going to see what I can do this morning to get loose, kind of do the same thing as I did yesterday, see how it goes.
The news about Mike Lowell is more encouraging. The pain he felt last night after a checked swing, he said, felt similar to the pain he had in Tampa roughly 10 days ago, the snag that led to his eight-game absence. This morning, though, his right hip felt better than the morning after the Tampa issue.
Mikey actually was a little surprised that he felt as good as he did, Terry Francona said. Last time he did this or had an episode, in Tampa, he woke up the next day and was really sore. So I think that's at least somewhat encouraging. So what we'll do, we'll just let him spend the next couple days, let the medical people work with him, and we'll get him out there Tuesday and run him through a workout and see how he does. I visited with Mikey last night, I visited with him this morning. We're on the same page. He's a tough kid, maybe the toughest I've ever seen. He's hurting. We'll evaluate how he's doing and go from there. I mean he's not ready to quit, so we would not quit on him.

I am the art director for a national media brand and we are looking for some outside creative. We are looking for an emblem or icon that can be a defining symbol for our brand. This emblem will be used in conjunction will our existing logo and as a stand-alone brand marker. We want this emblem/icon to be strong enough that it can be used by itself and still communicate the full weight of the power of our brand.
We are looking forward to seeing your submissions and we intend to be very hands-on in this process.

I walk when I get home from work. After sitting and staring at a computer all day my mind is burned out and I'm drained. But after a fast 30 minute walk with the trees and silly people to watch I'm ready for the other half of my day :)

On Thursday, March 5, 2015, EOPS Secretary Daniel Bennett presented the Governor's Proclamation
|High School Men's Sports Teams are invited to join Massachusetts White Ribbon Day as White Ribbon Teams. WRD is all about public action projects, and the action project for your sports team is to run banner signing week in your school.
Ambassadors agree to wear the ribbon on White Ribbon Day and recruit 5 to 10 male friends and colleagues to join them in taking the WRD pledge.
Individuals can take the pledge and add their name to the growing number of men in Massachusetts who have joined this campaign. Note: Ambassadors need not do both.
We now have white ribbon pins available for purchase on our site. Join the cause today and purchase pins for your organization.
Welcome to the
Massachusetts White Ribbon Day Campaign!
...inviting men and boys to be leaders to help end violence against women.
White Ribbon Day is part of an international campaign called The White Ribbon Campaign. Designed especially with men in mind at the time, this was created by a handful of Canadian men in 1991 on the second anniversary of one man's massacre of fourteen women in Montreal. They began the White Ribbon Campaign to urge men to speak out against violence against women. Today, the WRC is a worldwide campaign in 60 countries that has collected well over 5 million signatures and growing.
Held annually on the first Thursday in March, Massachusetts White Ribbon Day will be held next on on March 3, 2016.
Many communities have joined us with operating city and town proclamation events, information tables, and educational events. Learn about how your community can participate this coming year by visiting our action pages.
Checkout our resources for school, work and community participation.

You too can become involved.
We're taking our cue from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights that speaks to how violence against women is a human rights violation and how these abuses around the world are obstacles to efforts for peace and gender equality in all societies.
In addition, we link importantly with The United Nations Secretary General's new campaign UNited to End Violence Against Women, which is celebrated on International Women's Day, March 8th.
JDI invites you to sign on as a White Ribbon Day Ambassador and participate in local activities across Massachusetts. You can show your support by encouraging others in your organizations, families, and workplaces to wear a white ribbon, place a poster up at their workplaces, spread the word about the campaign and its aims, organize local events to speak out against violence towards women, and challenge attitudes and behaviors which condone or tolerate violence.
On this website, you can find out about the history of the White Ribbon Campaign, what this pledge means around the world and how you can get involved, including tool kits for planning local events.
We also urge you to learn more about sexual assault and domestic violence. You can find information, facts and more on the Jane Doe Inc. website.

Just the the title says, does anyone know if the Campagnolo BB cups will will with say a Dura Ace crank?
I know they use the same tool, are the bearings the same inner diameter? I think it would be a neat way to keep a little more Campy on my bike.

Deadbeat Debtor Warns of Great Catholic Conspiracy
There are some debtors who go to such lengths to escape their obligations that you have to wonder what kind of person lent them money in the first place.

Law Student Breaks Up With His Law School
At some point law students have to take responsibility for their own choices in professional schools. There really is enough information floating around on the internet warning potential law students about what they are getting into.

Minnesota Takes the High Road to Mentoring
I was never a huge fan of firm mentoring programs. In the days after firms started cracking down on using mentoring funds for hookers and blow, mentoring became distinctly less exciting. For the male associates, it seemed to revolve around mass quantities of red meat and booze. For the female associates, it was a lot […]
How Many Lawyers Does It Take to Change a Light Bulb?

We've all had obnoxious neighbors. The stoners who play music too loud, the dysfunctional lovers who are always yelling at each other… it's part of life.

His neighbor "launched a calculated campaign to terrorize his neighbors, […]

You Know What Makes Studying for the Bar Exam Easier? LOUD BANGING IN THE LIBRARY.
I know that we're not supposed to panic about the bar exam, but some people are panicking, and rightly so. The powers that be at the University of Minnesota Law School are not making it pleasant for recent graduates to study for the bar exam at the school's law library. Apparently, there's a lot of banging going on between the stacks, and not of the variety you'd brag to your friends about.
People watch short videos to learn pretty much everything. And they do it exactly when they need to learn – whether it's to tie a bow tie an hour before a wedding or make a martini just before the party starts. Hotshot is bringing that concept to the legal industry. We think you should be […]

Yeoman is a tool that provides a scaffolding system to begin new projects. The genius thing about Yeoman is that, by itself, it doesn't know how to do anything. This flexibility comes from a modular approach that relies on separate generator modules. Each generator knows how to create a particular kind of project (e.g. an Backbone.js app or a Chrome extension).
ReSpec is a JS library written by Robin Berjon that makes it easier to write technical specifications, or documents that tend to be technical in nature in general. It was originally designed for the purpose of writing W3C specifications, but has since grown to be able to support other outputs as well. On of the best things about ReSpec is its intrinsic understanding of WebIDL. You can outline the design for a new API and it makes it very easy to fill in the description of what the methods and properties do. It also makes it easy to refer to other specs using the SpecRef database.
Bringing these two together, I have create a Yeoman generator called generator-respec that outputs a basic ReSpec document.
Assuming you already have node and npm installed, you can install Yeoman with the command npm install –g yo. After that you should install the ReSpec generator with npm install –g generator-respec.
npm install –g yo
npm install –g generator-respec
Now you have the tools installed, create a new folder to hold your specification and from the command prompt in that directory run yo respec. This will prompt you for a title, short-name, spec status, and author information and then create a new index.html document with an outline specification using ReSpec. From here you can edit your spec using the ReSpec documentation as a guide.
yo respec
The current implementation of generator-respec is very basic. I'm sure there are some obvious things that can be added. One idea I have is to support a subgenerator that creates related specs in the same folder. What else should be added? The generator-respec project is available on GitHub.
Yesterday, my esteemed (new) colleague Aaron Gustafson wrote a piece about his reaction to the "Break Up with Internet Explorer 8" site currently doing the rounds in the Twittersphere. He argues for support of older browsers and optimisation for newer, better browsers. I disagree.
Some people don't have control over their browsing environment. Some people can't afford to upgrade to a more recent version of Windows because of business software that is expensive to move forward. This is true but being stuck on IE8 isn't the common case any longer.
Even Microsoft isn't going to support IE8 customers after January 2016 and you shouldn't either. There will be no more security updates for IE8 after that[1]. We all need to move on and we need to continue to encourage organisations to get to IE11 and deploy Enterprise Mode for their legacy applications.
Progressive enhancement is a good goal and something that we should aim for with today's modern browsers. IE11 has good feature coverage and the new Microsoft EdgeHTML rendering engine that will be used by "Project Spartan" goes considerably further. All the popular browsers are adding lots of new features (track the IE ones at https://status.modern.ie/) and we should make our apps light up in the face of new capabilities. Feature detection is king.
But IE8 is old. It didn't have support for the old old DOM standards like Core, HTML, Style, Events, etc. You even have to polyfill addEventListener, for goodness sake. Yes, this is all possible (maybe using abstractions like jQuery 1.x) but why should we continue to do this for new work? Why continue to bloat the web for an audience that is shrinking ever faster? Most enterprises we engage with are rushing to get to IE11 before the support policy change comes into effect.
There are two types of web developers in the world. Those that are building and maintaining legacy systems for enterprises that may well have to support IE8 and probably don't have to worry to much about modern browsers. And those who are targeting Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera, and modern IE. This latter category should target nothing older than IE9 and, given that IE11 share has been bigger than IE9 and IE10 combined for almost a year, I argue that you might just support IE11.
Does this apply to everyone? No, of course not. Is this too simplistic? Yes. Should you just cut people off tomorrow? No, again, of course not. But having a transition plan, letting customers know what it is, and then moving to a world where you don't worry about old legacy IE. That's the kind of web developer I want to be. Despite helping to bring IE8 to life, I've broken up with it.
My last post described how to acquire Twitter OAuth keys and tokens to allow you to use Twitter's API to access Twitter feeds. I showed how to use the request module with node.js, which has built-in support for OAuth, to request and process data.
In this blog post I will show how to do the same thing using C# and .NET using the OAuthBase class linked to from oauth.net.
Let's start with the code to call the Twitter API:
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Net;
using System.Text;
using OAuth;
class App {
static void Main() {
// URL for the API to call
string url = "https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json"
+ "?screen_name=adrianba&count=5";
// Create a http request for the API
var webReq = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
// Set the OAuth header
var auth = new OAuthHeader();
// Echo the response to the console
using(WebResponse webResp = webReq.GetResponse()) {
using(StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(
)) {
The code here is similar to the previous post. It creates a HTTP request to the API endpoint and this time simply writes the response to the console. The difference here is that we need to add the OAuth Authorization header. The magic takes place in the getHeader() method:
class OAuthHeader : OAuthBase {
public string getHeader(string url,string method) {
string normalizedUri;
string normalizedParameters;
// OAuth keys – FILL IN YOUR VALUES HERE (see this post)
const string consumerKey = "...";
const string consumerSecret = "...";
const string token = "...";
const string tokenSecret = "...";
// Create timestamp and nonce for this request
string timeStamp = GenerateTimeStamp();
string nonce = GenerateNonce();
// Generate signature for the header
string signature = GenerateSignature(
new Uri(url), consumerKey, consumerSecret, token, tokenSecret,
method, timeStamp, nonce, out normalizedUri, out normalizedParameters);
// Compose the authorization header value
// See http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5849#section-3.5.1
StringBuilder auth = new StringBuilder();
auth.Append("OAuth ");
auth.AppendFormat("{0}=\"{1}\", ", OAuthConsumerKeyKey, UrlEncode(consumerKey));
auth.AppendFormat("{0}=\"{1}\", ", OAuthNonceKey, UrlEncode(nonce));
auth.AppendFormat("{0}=\"{1}\", ", OAuthSignatureKey, UrlEncode(signature));
auth.AppendFormat("{0}=\"{1}\", ", OAuthSignatureMethodKey, "HMAC-SHA1");
auth.AppendFormat("{0}=\"{1}\", ", OAuthTimestampKey, timeStamp);
auth.AppendFormat("{0}=\"{1}\", ", OAuthTokenKey, UrlEncode(token));
auth.AppendFormat("{0}=\"{1}\"", OAuthVersionKey, "1.0");
return auth.ToString();
The OAuthHeader class inherits from the OAuthBase class mentioned above. This provides the GenerateTimeStamp, GenerateNonce, and GenerateSignature methods. Twitter uses the OAuth 1.0a protocol, defined in RFC5849. This specification outlines the Authorization header value that is constructed at the end of the getHeader() method.
You can keep the OAuthHeader class around for easy access to resources needing OAuth authorization such as Twitter.
Following on from my last post that described using Node to access feeds from Delicious, I've also been investigating how to access my Twitter feed. This adds a little more complexity because Twitter requires that your app or script authenticate to Twitter using OAuth.
Per Wikipedia, "OAuth provides client applications a 'secure delegated access' to server resources on behalf of a resource owner. It specifies a process for resource owners to authorize third-party access to their server resources without sharing their credentials." What this means is that your app can access the Twitter API in an authenticated way using OAuth without having to embed your username and password into the script.
var oauth = {
consumer_key: CONSUMER_KEY
, consumer_secret: CONSUMER_SECRET
, token: OAUTH_TOKEN
, token_secret: OAUTH_TOKEN_SECRET
Each of CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET, OAUTH_TOKEN and OAUTH_TOKEN_SECRET are strings that we must supply as part of the OAuth handshake.
There are two ways to think about using OAuth to authenticate against a service such as Twitter depending upon the type of app that you are building. The first scenario is where, for example, you are building a Twitter client. You will distribute this application and each user of the application will authenticate using their own credentials so that they can access information from the service as themselves. In the second scenario you are building an application or service that you want to access the service as you and you never need to send a variety of credentials. For example, say you are building a widget on your web site that will indicate how long it has been since you last tweeted. This will always be about you and need to use only your credentials.
The CONSUMER_KEY and CONSUMER_SECRET values are provided by the service to identify your application. The OAUTH_TOKEN and OAUTH_TOKEN_SECRET represent the credentials of the user accessing the service. They may be determined and stored by your app in the first scenario above or they may be part of your application in the second.
This all sounds a little complicated so an example will help. Before we get to that we need to get the values. Twitter provides a portal for this at https://apps.twitter.com/. If you login and select Create New App you will see a screen that looks like this:
Here you provide the name of you application, a description, and a link to your web site. For our initial scripting purposes the values here don't matter too much. There is a Callback URL value but we also don't need this now and can leave this blank. Finally there are some terms and conditions to read and agree to. Once you have completed this form, press the Create your Twitter application button and you will see a screen that looks like this:
If you click on the API Keys tab you will see something like this:
Since we want our script to access Twitter using our account, we can click on the Create my access token button to generate the appropriate token values. You should see something like this:
You may need to refresh to see your new access token.
So now you have four strings: API key, API secret, Access token, and Access token secret. These map to the four values needed in the OAuth structure described in the code above.
There are lots of different ways to access the Twitter API. Here I am simply going to use the user_timeline API to retrieve the 5 most recent tweets from my timeline. You can use this API to retrieve any user's timeline that you have access to from your Twitter account (including, of course, all the public timelines).
So here is the code to make a request to this API:
var request = require('request');
var url = "https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=adrianba&count=5";
var CONSUMER_KEY = "...";
var CONSUMER_SECRET = "...";
var OAUTH_TOKEN = "...";
var OAUTH_TOKEN_SECRET = "...";
var oauth = {
consumer_key: CONSUMER_KEY
, consumer_secret: CONSUMER_SECRET
, token: OAUTH_TOKEN
, token_secret: OAUTH_TOKEN_SECRET
request.get({url:url, oauth:oauth, json:true}, function (e, r, data) {
var tweets = [];
data.forEach(function(item) {
var tweet = {};
tweet.id = item.id.toString();
tweet.text = item.text;
tweet.created = item.created_at;
You obviously need to replace the "..." strings with the values copied from your API Keys page.
The important addition in this code is passing the oauth option into the get() method. After this, the request module takes care of the rest. In general, all services that require OAuth authentication follow this pattern although they will differ in how the keys and tokens are issued to you.
In my last post, I wrote about using node.js as a scripting tool. Node has lots of good libraries for making network requests and processing the results. request is one of the most popular HTTP clients. It is easier to work with than the built-in http module that is designed to provide basic http client/server primitives.
Despite its chequered history, I recently started using delicious.com again for managing and sharing bookmarks for sites I want to remember. Modern browsers like Internet Explorer support synchronising bookmarks or favourites amongst your devices but I like the ability to store interesting sites in a public place so other people can see what I'm looking at (should they be interested!). This also allows me to find things that I stored from someone else's device.
Delicious provides a variety of interesting APIs for developers but also some simple RSS or JSON data feeds.
Here is a simple node script that uses the request and querystring modules to retrieve the last 10 public bookmarks and creates a simple JSON output.
var request = require('request');
var qs = require('querystring');
var url = "http://feeds.delicious.com/v2/json/adrianba?";
var params = { count: 10 };
url += qs.stringify(params);
request.get({url:url, json:true }, function (e, r, data) {
var bookmarks = [];
data.forEach(function(item) {
var bookmark = {};
bookmark.url = item.u;
bookmark.text = item.d;
bookmark.created = item.dt;
The important parts here are the use of request.get() which calls a callback when the response is retrieved and setting the json option to true so that the response JSON is already parsed when it is returned.
With just a few lines of code you can retrieve data with node and then do whatever processing you want on it.
For the last couple of months, I've been experimenting more and more with node.js. My impression is that most people who have heard of node but not really used it think of it as a server technology for building web applications using JavaScript. Of course, it does that and there is good support for node.js hosted on Microsoft Azure Web Sites. But you can also use node as a scripting language for local tasks. There are lots of popular scripting languages like Python and Ruby but if you're already a JavaScript developer then node is a convenient choice.
I guess most scripting environments have a package management framework and node's is called npm. I recently wanted to do some scripting against an XML file and discovered the xml-stream module by searching on npmjs.org. One of the helpful things about npmjs.org is that it tells you how often a particular package has been downloaded, which gives you an idea of whether it is a main stream module or just someone's hobby module that might not work so well yet.
Installing modules is easy and the command npm install xml-stream should take care of installing the module into the node_modules folder below the current directory.
npm install xml-stream
However. When I first tried this I ran into some problems. First of all, this module needs Python to be available. I installed the latest version of Python (v3.4.0) and tried again. This time it complained because Python 2.7 was needed. I installed Python 2.7.6 too but now there was a problem – how would npm know which version of Python to use? You can specify this each time or you can use the npm config command to tell npm where to look:
npm config
npm config set python "C:\Python27\python.exe"
You can also configure the version of Visual Studio tools you have installed so that npm knows how to use the compilers:
npm config set msvs_version 2013
You can check that this is configured correctly by typing:
npm config list
With this configuration in place, issuing the command npm install xml-stream successfully downloaded a built the xml-stream module.
Now that I had xml-stream installed, I could try it out. The W3C publishes a list of all of their published documents in an RDF/XML file. I wanted to parse this file and identify the latest version of each document.
The first thing to do is to import the http and xml-stream modules and to download the XML file:
"use strict";
var http = require('http');
var XmlStream = require('xml-stream');
var url = "http://www.w3.org/2002/01/tr-automation/tr.rdf";
var request = http.get(url).on('response', function (response) {
//TODO: process response here
The xml-stream module allows you to set-up event listeners for different elements in the document. The W3C file has different elements for Working Draft (WD), Last Call (LastCall), Candidate Recommendation (CR), etc. Here is the code that listens for each document type.
"use strict";
var http = require('http');
var XmlStream = require('xml-stream');
var url = "http://www.w3.org/2002/01/tr-automation/tr.rdf";
var request = http.get(url).on('response', function (response) {
// Collection to store documents in
var documents = {};
var processDocument = function (item) {
//TODO: process document
var xml = new XmlStream(response, 'utf8');
// Process each type of document
xml.on('updateElement: WD', processDocument);
xml.on('updateElement: LastCall', processDocument);
xml.on('updateElement: CR', processDocument);
xml.on('updateElement: PR', processDocument);
xml.on('updateElement: REC', processDocument);
xml.on('updateElement: NOTE', processDocument);
xml.on('end', function () {
// Write out JSON data of documents collection
Finally, we can add in a definition for the processDocument function, which will gather together all the documents into the documents collection:
var processDocument = function (item) {
// Collect document properties
var document = {};
document.type = item.$name;
document.title = item['dc:title'];
document.date = item['dc:date'];
document.verURL = item.$['rdf:about'];
document.trURL = item['doc:versionOf'].$['rdf:resource'];
// If we have already seen a version of this document
if (documents[document.trURL]) {
// Check to see if this one is newer and if so overwrite it
var old = documents[document.trURL];
if (old.date < document.date) {
documents[document.trURL] = document;
} else {
// Store the new entry
documents[document.trURL] = document;
At the end, the script writes out the JSON data to the console.
Of course, this script is a little fragile because it doesn't map any of the namespace prefixes based on their declarations but it does the job I needed and is a good example of having a powerful JavaScript scripting environment coupled to a wide array of different packages to help you get tasks completed.
I'm running Windows Server Essentials 2012 R2 for file storage and system backups. While I'm doing lots of experimenting with Boxstarter, I wanted a caching web proxy that would keep local copies of the package files I'm installing over and over so that I wouldn't have to wait for them to come from the Internet each time.
Squid is a well known caching proxy and GuidoSerassio of Acme Consulting S.r.l. maintains the official native Windows port. You can download the latest stable build of Squid 2.7 from here.
Installation is simple. I extracted all the files into C:\squid. In the etc folder, there are four configuration files with .conf.default extensions. I removed the .default extension from squid.conf, mime.conf, and cachemgr.conf:
Next from a command prompt running as Administrator cd to c:\squid\sbin and run squid –i and squid –z. The first command installs squid as a service and the second initialises the cache folder (c:\squid\var\cache). Finally, start the service with net start squid.
squid –i
squid –z
net start squid
Squid will now be running and listening on port 3128 (the default for squid). The last think you need to do is to configured the Windows Firewall to allow incoming connections to squid. Go to Advanced Settings from the Windows Firewall control panel. Select Inbound rules and add a New Rule allowing listening on TCP port 3128.
Now you should be all set – you can configure your browser to connect to the proxy on your server using port 3128. You can look in the c:\squid\var\logs folder for activity logs to make sure things are working.
Every year, Scott Hanselman publishes his Ultimate Developer and Power Users Tool List for Windows. I usually take a look through it, pat myself on the back when I see things I've been using for a while, and spend some time investigating some of the new ones. Sometimes a tool that I've looked at before but haven't been using gets another mention and it prompts me to take a look (this year it was Clink, a tool that adds readline-style editing to the Windows command line).
I recently discovered that I'd missed an important recommendation – it's right there at the beginning of the list. A while ago, someone on my old team at Microsoft UK had recommended Chocolatey. This is a command line tool that works like apt-get but it installs Windows tools and applications. What I really wanted was a way to script installation of tools through Chocolatey, say after deploying a clean installation of Windows.
Introducing Boxstarter. Boxstarter, as recommended by Scott, is a fantastic tool that allows you to configure the installation of a set of Chocolatey packages. It also allows you to configure key Windows settings. Even better, the WebLauncher installs everything from a simple URL.
For simple installations, you can list the packages you want in the URL and BoxStarter will take care of the rest. Say I want to install node.js, git, and Visual Studio Express for Windows. Easy. I just press Win+R to bring up the run dialog and type
Here is a video (don't worry – most of the Visual Studio installation is edited out) that shows what happens when you launch this on a clean installation of Windows 8.1:
From time to time I see posts like this describing "CSS Hacks" to detect a particular version of IE. This post describes how removing conditional comments support in IE10 might be a problem for targeting workarounds to IE10. Specifically it says:
"But without conditional comments in IE10, the only options we're left with to target CSS problems are hacks or browser sniffing — and we certainly don't want to resort to the latter."
if (/*@cc_on!@*/false && document.documentMode === 10)
The whole point of feature detection is to look for the feature you want to use and if it is missing do something else. If the issue really is a bug in a specific version of a browser and you can't find a way to detect the correct vs. the errant behaviour then consider browser detection explicitly, not hidden in code made to look like something else.
The main issue is one that David Storey notes in the comments: this kind of hack is unreliable as bugs are fixed or new features introduced. Today we find that most sites that don't work correctly in IE10 by default are broken because they made this kind of assumption. They either expect that if they detect IE then a specific feature isn't present or will work a specific way or the assume that if feature A is supported then feature B must also be supported, often when there is no connection between the two. When a new version of IE comes along that fixes the bug or maybe implements feature A but not B then the site is broken because of these incorrect assumptions.
All browsers prioritise the order in which they deliver new features according to their own goals. In IE10 we invested a lot in new CSS3 layout support like grid and regions, for example. There are other things that we didn't get to though we always wish we could have done more. Use feature detection in your site for the things you use that we didn't get to yet so that as soon as we include support your site should simply light up that part in IE.
I'm not a Gmail user but I know someone who is. She was a little disappointed to discover that when configuring her Gmail account with a Microsoft Surface, only one of the many Google calendars synchronised to the built-in Calendar app. It looks like the app only syncs the default calendar. After a little searching, we found a workaround. It's a little clunky but did the trick. Hopefully this gets fixed properly in an update to the main app.
This morning in the United States, the White House announced a new "Consumer Privacy Bill of Rights" as part of the effort to improve consumers' online privacy. As I've mentioned before, Microsoft is actively participating in the industry initiative for Tracking Protection at the W3C to produce Web standards for online privacy. [continues on the IEBlog]
In the last ten years Microsoft has invested heavily in user privacy. Just like security, privacy considerations are baked into every Microsoft product. It is almost a year since the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), an international community that develops open standards to ensure the long-term growth of the Web, accepted and published Microsoft's member submission for an Internet Standard to help protect consumer privacy. [continues on the IEBlog]
Today, the W3C announced the creation of a Tracking Protection Working Group to work on defining what tracking is, signaling user intent, and tracking protection lists. The W3C's action here can help protect consumers from unwanted tracking. We welcome the opportunity to work with the industry and governments on a Web standard based on our earlier work. [continues on the IEBlog]
This morning the W3C accepted and published Microsoft's Web Tracking Protection member submission proposing a standard for helping to address privacy concerns related to online tracking. You can read more on the IE Blog and on the W3C Blog. Web Tracking Protection is based on IE9's tracking protection lists showcased on the IE9 Test Drive.
I have upgraded this blog to Subtext 2.5 and moved hosting providers from WebHost4Life to Arvixe. This is a test post to make sure it is all working.
Last year I wrote about the W3C's annual Technical Plenary and Advisory Committee (TPAC) conference. This is where most of the W3C working groups get together for a week of face to face meetings and networking. TPAC 2010 was a couple of weeks ago and here I will highlight some of the topics discussed by the groups where we participate… [continues on the IEBlog]
I want to provide an update to my last blog post about the W3C process that we follow to develop and finalise Web Standards. The working group published the Release Candidate (RC) of the CSS 2.1 Test Suite on September 17. The next step is for the major browser vendors to submit their implementation reports using the working group's template within one month from publication of the test suite. The group has set a deadline on October 18… [continues on the IEBlog]
Complete Web Standards with multiple browser implementations and comprehensive test suites are the backbone of the interoperable Web. Getting web standards through the complete standardisation process and turned into official W3C Recommendations takes a lot of effort. While it is tempting to view the latest editor's draft of a specification as a "standard", a large part of the complexity that ensures good interoperability happens in the "last mile". In the last couple of weeks, several key web specifications have reached important milestones and these examples illustrate how the process works… [continues on the IEBlog]
Over the last month, as part of Microsoft's commitment to interoperability, we've published information for Internet Explorer 7 and Internet Explorer 8 describing variations from certain web standards… [continues on the IEBlog]

Hawks nab alleged rhino poachersComment on this story
The Hawks on Sunday shot dead an alleged rhino poacher and injured another during a shootout in the Kruger National Park.
Captain Paul Ramoloka said the Hawks in partnership with the task force received information about the alleged poachers who were spotted near the Sabi Sand private game reserve in Skukuza at around 2pm.
"When our team confronted the four men, they opened fire on the police who returned fire. One of the poachers was killed, another is in hospital while the other two were arrested," he said.
Police confiscated a hunting rifle, axe, saw and sedan used by the alleged poachers.
Ramoloka said the three men would be charged with attempted murder and being in possession of dangerous weapons.
"We are still trying to link the suspects with some of the rhino poaching which have taken place in the KNP over the past week."
According to SA National Parks (SANParks) the country had lost 528 rhinos since the beginning of 2012 and 320 of them were killed in the KNP. - Sapa

The Value of The U.s. Dollar
The value of U.S. currency is going down,down,down. The dollar is drowning in global market and most students and experts of economic history know it is only a matter of time because either it implodes or just dissappears due to the political nature of consumerism that is left in the hands of politicians to manipulate.
Do you know how the value of the dollar is determined?
It is derived by three main methods of economic measurement:
1. exchange rates
2. Treasury Note value and interest rates
3. foreign exchange reserves (how many U.S. Dollars are held by other nations)
The U.S. dollar is losing value presently at a record rate, primarily due to the extremely high U.S. debt, which is rising daily. The high debt makes holding U.S. dollars a risky proposition for foreign investors (like China for example).
Recently China began calling in some of the debt holding it has on the U.S.
Germany has called for its 20 billion in actual gold bullion to be returned ASAP to them.
Who is next to call for a return because the American economy appears shaky? Arab oil nations maybe?
Thus the U.S. government must raise taxes to pay the debt or stop spending money it doesn't have backed by gold. Which will it be? My money (what little I have) is on taxes rising.
Nations holding U.S. debt do not want to invest in America like they have in the past. They now see emerging nations as a good place to place their economic risks and investments on.
Here is an insider tip….
Why are gas prices rising suddenly? When the dollar value declines American made products are cheaper to acquire. Yes!
But this causes oil prices to increase as the oil producing nations that sell to us must charge more dollars for a barrell of oil to make the same profit they had been making when the dollar was worth more. Seems like a global money, game you think. Well, hold on to your wallet because the roller coaster ride has just begun.
You need to read what some astute non-partisan investors and economic strategists are saying.

A new website offers internships for students only at small business ventures or startups across the world.
May 31, 2009 2:40 by Aarti Nagraj
While internships at many big companies translate into getting coffee or staring at your boss, a start-up company promises enterprising students work and opportunities. Trends spotting site Springwise.com profiled Enternships.com, a new website that hopes to provide small businesses and startups with entrepreneurial students, or 'enterns'.
Both companies and students can register free with the website, which offers part-time, short-term and full-time placements. "Unlike other services, we focus on entrepreneurial work placements to ensure that our enterns get 'hands on' business experience," says the website.
Some of the offers that are available on the site include internships with companies in the UK, Netherlands, South America, Philippines, the US, China and Milan. The 'enternships' range from field marketers and web developers, to PR managers and journalists.
The site was developed by former members of Oxford Entrepreneurs, a student-run society at Oxford University that encourages and supports student entrepreneurship. The site, which is currently in beta, is also planning to add more services in the near future, including a special program for children leaving school and year-long programs for graduates.
Enternships.com claims that it offers students a greater chance to work with the founders of a company, a chance to play different roles, and possibly a job in the future. At the same time, it also gives smaller companies cheap extra hands to help.
Regionally, a concept like this could work well. Before the financial crisis hit the GCC, the region –specifically the UAE – witnessed enormous economic growth, which was fuelled the rise of small businesses. Although these entrepreneurial ventures may be struggling to pay employees because of the slowdown, using an 'entern' could help for a short while.
Whether Enternships.com will work for regional startups or not, it seems like an interesting concept.

FOXBORO ' The Patriots just opened their Tuesday afternoon practice on the fields behind Gillette Stadium under bright sunny skies and in shorts, shells and helmets. Making a return to practice were linebackers Brandon Spikes and Dane Fletcher and defensive lineman Mike Wright.
The following players were not in attendance: wide receiver Taylor Price, running back Stevan Ridley, cornerback Leigh Bodden, running back Kevin Faulk, running back Eric Kettani, linebacker Jeff Tarpinian, offensive lineman Marcus Cannon, offensive lineman Ryan Wendell, offensive lineman Dan Connolly, defensive lineman Brandon Deaderick, wide receiver Wes Welker, linebacker Jermaine Cunningham and defensive lineman Ron Brace.
