The Olympic Cauldron Had To Be Relit
Traditionally, the cauldron burns for the entirety of the games. London had other ideas.
1. This is the Olympic cauldron on Friday night. Seven young athletes lit it while an estimated one billion people watched.

2. This is the Olympic cauldron on Sunday. The flame was extinguished so the cauldron could be moved.
- / Getty Images
3. It took 80 hours to move the 204 copper pots and steel pipes.
- / Getty Images
4. But the actual flame never went out. It was transferred to a miners' lamp, and carried by 1948 torchbearer Austin Playfoot.

5. Moving the cauldron has broken tradition and drawn criticism.
Jeff J Mitchell / Getty Images
6. Traditionally, the flame burns undisturbed in its cauldron for the entirety of the Olympic games.
Jeff J Mitchell / Getty Images
7. The flame is also usually visible to the general public. But the London cauldron will only be seen by spectators inside the stadium. (A video feed will broadcast it on screens throughout the Olympic park.)
Jeff J Mitchell / Getty Images
8. The relighting procedure was unceremonious for everyone but Austin Playfoot, who ran with the torch earlier this year in Guildford, England.
Jeff J Mitchell / Getty Images
9. He told AFP: "When I ran with the Olympic Flame in Guildford I never thought I would get this close to the Cauldron, it brought me to tears when it lit up."

10. At least he had a small audience.

BRISBANE, Australia, March 19, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Cryptsoft today announced its latest round of certification in the RSA® Ready program, demonstrating an improved set of interoperability features between the latest Cryptsoft KMIP C Client SDK and the latest version of RSA® Data Protection Manager software (DPM) from RSA, The Security Division of EMC. The RSA Ready certification signifies that both companies have tested and certified interoperable products with DPM across multiple deployment scenarios.
"By jointly testing the combined use of KMIPC and DPM, our mutual customers can be assured that they are compatible." said Tim Hudson - Technical Director, Cryptsoft. "We include support for OpenSSL and RSA BSAFE® Micro-Edition Suite (MES) as an optional alternate TLS implementation thereby preserving RSA customer investment in MES."
The Cryptsoft KMIP C SDK supports interaction with enterprise key management servers which support the OASIS Key Management Interoperability Protocol (KMIP) either directly or encapsulated in HTTPS. Additionally, the KMIP DPM plug-in to the KMIP C SDK may also be used for DPM integrations that need to use the native DPM protocol, integrating seamlessly into the customer's environment.
KMIPC SDK applications can create security classes and Symmetric Keys in DPM and manage use of those keys via the standard KMIP C SDK API. Key administrators can monitor and manage the use of keys by all clients including KMIP C SDK applications via the DPM web based management console.
DPM and the Cryptsoft KMIPC SDK together enable rapid addition of the enterprise key management capabilities of DPM for application developers. This seamless integration has enabled solutions like Sepaton's ES2100 Virtual Tape Library and Panzura's Quicksilver cloud storage controller to meet their customers' encryption and key management needs quickly and effectively.
"As one of the primary supporters of the OASIS Key Management Interoperability Protocol (KMIP) specification, RSA continues to demonstrate the benefits of interoperable key management combined with formal certification of products." Sam Curry - Chief Strategy Officer and Chief Technologist at RSA, The Security Division of EMC.

I'm using my htpc for all my bluray viewing so I'm getting rid of my Panasonic. This is an excellent unit and one of the best bluray players on the market. I'm the original owner and the unit still is under the Panasonic warranty until august. It has been collecting dust for the last 6 months or so. I just hooked it up and everything functions flawlessly. My asking price is 200 shipped. Includes original box, remote, manual, and sales receipt.

The most popular field is the aerospace and defense industry. Very few SMU grads go into the banking industry; in fact, less than five percent of alumni enter this industry. Starting salaries of around $72K are the median among SMU grads.
It's worth noting that female graduates earn a median salary of about $59K whereas the men's median is $86K.
Among SMU graduates, the biggest earners are Principal Systems Engineers, who haul in approximately $124K on average. Next on the list are Marketing Directors and Senior Software Engineers, bringing in $92K each. Relative to other positions, compensation dwindles for Marketing Coordinators; alumni in this role face average salaries of $48K.
For reasons other than money, SMU grads are most commonly found still living in Dallas, Texas, where median pay sits at the bottom of the pay scale ($68K). For those seeking more money, San Francisco, Calif. is a popular destination for former SMU students; median pay is $110K. SMU alumni express interest in nearby Houston, Texas and Austin, Texas as well.
A graduate with a Doctorate (PhD) from SMU can rake in a whopping average approximately $163K per year, more than any other degree from this school. The degree that warrants the lowest level of financial compensation is a Bachelor of Science in Psychology (around $43K on average annually).
Former Mustangs with Systems Engineering experience garner salaries that are 45 percent more than other grads' salaries. SMU grads are usually competent in Project Management, and just under one in five alumni continue practicing this skill in their career. Other top skills include Microsoft Excel, Marketing Management, and Microsoft Office.
Though vacation and sick days are paid for some, these benefits are reported by the minority of graduates (two-fifths of alumni and one in four survey participants, respectively). Most former students plan for retirement by taking advantage of a company-sponsored 401(k) program. It is no small feat that most graduates are given health coverage, and a fair number of alumni accept dental insurance. Southern Methodist University graduates also take advantage of a casual working environment, life insurance, a company-subsidized cell phone, and flexible hours.
Alumni of Catholic University of America pick up average paychecks of $73K, which is closest to the amount made by SMU grads among similar schools. Saint Louis University-Main Campus, the University of Denver, and Claremont Graduate University are also similar to SMU.

Ten days after it plunged into political crisis, Jharkhand was on Friday brought under President's Rule for the third time since its formation 12 years ago.
President Pranab Mukherjee, who is on a visit to Kolkata, signed the proclamation imposing the Central rule in the state which is known for political instability and has seen eight governments since 2000, Rashtrapati Bhawan sources said.
The Union Cabinet had yesterday recommended imposition of President's Rule, where Chief Minister Arjun Munda has resigned after his government was reduced to a minority.
The Cabinet discussed the report of Jharkhand Governor Syed Ahmed who has suggested imposition of President's Rule while keeping the 82-member state Assembly in suspended animation.
The state was placed under President's Rule in 2009 and 2010.
The present political instability erupted on January 8 when BJP's ruling coalition partner JMM, in a letter to the governor, formally withdrew its support to the 28-month-old government pushing it into a minority.
Munda had resigned the next day and sought dissolution of the state Assembly.
In the Assembly, BJP and JMM have 18 members each. The Munda government had the support of six members of All Jharkhand Students' Union, two of JD (U), two Independents and one nominated member who has voting right in a trial of strength.
Opposition Congress has a total of 13 members, Jharkhand Vikas Morcha(P)11 and RJD 5 in the Assembly. CPI-ML(L), Marxist Coordination Party, Jharkhand Party (Ekka), Jharkhand Janadhikar Manch and Jai Bharat Samta Party have one member each besides an Independent.

Governor Deval Patrick and MassDOT today announced the launch of a new Massachusetts 511 traveler information service that for the first time is available to travelers throughout the state.
Beginning this week, 511 traveler information will be expanded statewide and drivers will have the opportunity to receive personalized travel information alerts via email, text or telephone. Drivers can access the new service by dialing 511 on their cell phones or logging onto www.mass.gov/511 to register to receive personalized updates. MassDOT reminds drivers to avoid using their cell phones while driving and encourages travelers to call into the 511 service before they leave.
The new 511 is the result of an innovative public-private partnership with Sendza, a growing Massachusetts communications-software company, and will come at no cost to the state, resulting in $4.1 million in one-time savings and $1.2 million in annual savings for MassDOT. Previous 511 service only covered communities in eastern Massachusetts.
The legacy 511 system handled approximately 500,000 calls per month. The Sendza-based Mass511 system is capable of not only maintaining this volume of calls, but also allows room for significant growth as the system's user base expands. Sendza's software-as-a-service message platform provides Mass511 message services and defrays costs by packaging marketing programs from sponsors. The initial sponsor of the new Mass511 is Massachusetts based Safety Insurance.
3 Key Steps for Using the New 511 System for the First Time by Phone:
1. Dial 511 from any cellphone.
2. After the introductory message, enter the route numbers of interest to you. For example, for information on Interstate 93, press "93".
3. As reports are being delivered, press 1 to skip a segment, press 2 to skip a route, and press 3 to enter a new route.
3 Ways to Personalize Routes on the New 511 Service:
1. Simply call 511 and enter the route numbers of interest to you. Travel information for these routes is automatically provided the next time you call, minimizing the need to constantly re-enter your routes again and again. Sendza's system remembers the last three routes you asked for from your last call.
2. Set-up hands-free 511. Go to www.mass.gov/511, login and choose your routes off a map. The selected routes are used each time you call 511 so no key presses are needed unless you require additional routes.
3. Text or Email alerts sent to you. Same as #2 above, go to www.mass.gov/511, login and choose your routes off a map. Select "Send Alerts" radio button. You will now receive texts or email alerts on adverse conditions for your selected routes to view.
MassDOT's Online Traffic Resources:
o New 511 Traveler Information Service: Drivers can customize their 511 experience by visiting www.mass.gov/511 or by using their cell phone to call 511.
o Online Traffic Cameras: www.mass.gov/511/cameras
o Interactive Map of Planned Construction Events are here.

by JohnFitzgibbonsIII May 31, 2006
A word used to describe the audio version of dog shit. Hip hop is to civilized ears what fresh dogshit is to bare feet. Insofar as contribution to our culture goes, that any homie with an IQ of slightly more than 45 (i.e. your advanced homie) can belt this shit out on the first try without any practice, training, or study whatsoever is a big hint. Another is the skill with which they affix their hats to their little BB-like heads.
When that ex-cop Caprice pulled up beside me in traffic with his hip hop dogshit turned up so high his trunk lid was buzzing, I decided not to go to a black lawyer or a black doctor just to be on the safe side, and I think I'll make it tougher for 'em to get into my university, not to mention neighborhood.
by hoze-a July 04, 2006
Hip hop is the anti-movement. Take Lional Richie for example, his music was intended to close the gap between identifiable black and white music. There was a movement for equality for all men, (known as the civil rights movement) and with todays hip hop music, that gap is quickly being torn open. For estetic purposes Hip Hop music is realistic. Although my respect for it ends there.
Hip hop is the anti-movement.

Cheap, music manufactured so that music corporations to meet the lower or middle class demographic or alot of spoiled rich, white teenagers. The only rap "song" worth a damn is (shake ya ass) watch yourself by Mystikal.
Why dont people know that rap is the next disco?

– Vinya Ariyaratne, Executive Director, Sarvodaya
The Indian Ocean tsunami of December 2004 was a cataclysm almost beyond comprehension. In its aftermath few expected to hear much positive news. One encouraging story, however, did emerge.
Residents of a village near Puducherry, India, survived the wave following a timely alert by telephone from Singapore. Locals hurried to the community centre — a facility of the Swaminathan Foundation, itself supported by Canada's International Development Research Centre (IDRC) — and sounded the siren. In that village, everybody ran, and everybody lived.
The villagers' incredible escape demonstrated that thousands more could have been saved had effective hazard alerts been in place. The experience convinced non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in the region of the need to improve disaster warning systems.
Since the tsunami, IDRC has been funding a large action research project in Sri Lanka — another country hardhit by the monster waves — in an effort to learn from field experiments how these alert systems can be made more effective.
For any disaster warning system to succeed, several components are necessary: technology to detect and monitor the hazard; communication systems to alert the public; local leaders trained to make the right decisions; a public that is educated to react appropriately to warnings; and response protocols — such as evacuation plans — prepared and rehearsed well in advance of the threat. All these elements must work well, both individually and in harmony.
In Sri Lanka, coastal villages are especially vulnerable to adversity. Calamity can come from the sea, not only in the form of tsunamis but also cyclones, tidal surges, and water spouts. These villages, meanwhile, suffer from having limited access to emergency services and organizational resources.
The research effort decided therefore to concentrate on communicating more effective danger signals to the remote "last mile" in the response chain and providing training so that people living along the coast could, as the investigators put it, "sleep easy at night."
IDRC's lead research partner was LIRNEasia, a non-profit organization that aims to improve the lives of Asia's people by using information and communication technologies (ICTs). LIRNEasia has had considerable experience on the use of ICTs in disaster situations. The project also drew upon the extensive networking resources of Sarvodaya, a large village-based self-help movement in Sri Lanka, and upon the disaster communication expertise of Buddhi Weerasinghe of TVE Asia Pacific, Peter Anderson of Simon Fraser University, and Gordon Gow of the University of Alberta, among other partners.
The pilot study had two broad objectives.
First, it sought to evaluate the suitability of various configurations of five technical systems, each with unique capabilities, for reaching Sri Lankan local leaders in an emergency:
* a stand-alone "remote alarm device" incorporating a radio, siren, and flashing lights;
* versatile Java-enabled mobile phones set up to receive text alerts in English, Sinhala, and Tamil;
* "addressable" satellite radio sets capable of remote activation and of issuing targeted messages to vulnerable areas;
* a warning system based on Very Small Aperture Terminal (VSAT) satellite technology that delivers pop-up screen alerts to personal computers; and
* conventional fixed wireless telephones linked to the public network.
These options were tested for reliability under varying conditions, reaction time, bidirectionality (so that alerts can be confirmed and false warnings minimized), and degree of integration into daily life.
Second, the researchers evaluated the effectiveness of the human element of the warning system, which comprised three components:
* Near Colombo, a Sarvodaya-staffed "hazard information hub" downloaded bulletins from abroad and from the National Warning Centre, confirmed their validity, and relayed them to the ICT guardians in each community.
* ICT guardians maintained the equipment, received the crisis alerts from the hub, and conveyed them to the local emergency response coordinators.
* Emergency response coordinators trained the villagers to take appropriate action and ensured that, as soon as a warning arrived, the people were alerted and did react.
During 2006–2007, the researchers conducted training exercises and live drills to test both the technical and the human networks.
The findings provided a rich source of new knowledge about ways to make hazard warning systems more effective. As in any pilot project, the research showed up weaknesses in technologies as well as in the human agents working in real-life conditions.
The satellite radio set, for example, could transmit music even when the antenna was not optimally aligned, but for the alert to be delivered perfect alignment was essential — a discovery that could not have been made in a laboratory. Other banal reasons for transmission failures were forgotten logon passwords, accidental deletion of Java software on the cellphones, and cancellation of telephone service for non-payment of bills.
A less banal human factor was the civil conflict in Sri Lanka's northeast. On the day of one live exercise, the government ordered the shutdown of all telephone service in the conflict zones. The tests were conducted with much improvisation. The best results in this instance came from satellite radio, which is immune to terrestrial shutdowns, natural or otherwise.
That experience illustrates one of the key findings of the study: the value of complementary redundancy.
The addressable satellite radio system enjoys one-way capability only, but its orbital base makes it immune to most local disruptions. Meanwhile, the Java-enabled mobile phone benefits from its language capacities, but is subject to local shutdowns and congestion. When both systems are joined, their complementary redundancy makes for a more reliable link.
The need for different types of media to work together seamlessly in transmitting messages highlights the importance of the Common Alerting Protocol (CAP). The CAP is an international standard for data interchange that allows alerts to be transmitted over multiple media in varied jurisdictions. For example, the CAP converts a single alarm into Internet messages, news feeds for television and radio, automated telephone calls, even highway pixel boards.
However, the researchers found shortcomings in the CAP protocol that raised questions about achieving perfect "interoperability." Some types of ICT terminals, for example, were able to display only partial warning messages because of limitations on message length. In one live exercise, this resulted in communities mistakenly executing an evacuation plan for a tsunami and running to higher ground, rather than for a cyclone and seeking shelter at lower levels. Likely, modifications to the CAP can solve this problem.
Most of the adults who took part in the exercises were women, either because the men were at work or because many of the Sarvodaya village societies were headed by women. When men did participate, they tended to be more vocal and aggressive than the women. They were also less inhibited by cultural attitudes, for example those frowning upon travel by female response coordinators. Such gender differences in the capacity to take a leadership role may affect a community's behaviour during an actual emergency.
Obviously, for ICTs to serve as warning terminals, they must be in working order all the time. The researchers looked at ways, aside from the alert function, that the various communication systems could be integrated into everyday life, thus increasing the likelihood the terminals would remain in good order. They found that, overall, every type of ICT possesses some unique feature that contributes to the daily life of the community, and that if the technology is provided and the operating cost is low, people will use it.
This last-mile system aims to complement and "amplify" the Sri Lankan government's national alerting function, rather than to issue official public warnings. Project leaders hope that if they can demonstrate an efficient lastmile mechanism, the government will adopt it.
This goal may be advanced by pressure from Sri Lanka's coastal villagers themselves. The project's training exercises heightened their awareness of the importance of disaster preparedness, and many communities have demanded that such programs be continued and expanded. Many of the Sarvodaya villages have started emergency response committees to strengthen local disaster resilience.
Meanwhile, the technology and the training have been tested in an actual emergency situation. In September 2007 an earthquake triggered a government order for coastal areas to evacuate ahead of a possible tsunami. Most villages did so, but at least one community — thanks to links with the Colombo hub by satellite radio and Java-enabled phones — decided instead to monitor the situation. The emergency response coordinators observed the ocean before mobilizing the people to flee. In the end, the tsunami did not happen. The government order had been an overreaction, and so the system served to avoid a costly and needless evacuation.
This multi-faceted research endeavour has drawn attention to the many technical and people-centred problems that must be confronted if such hazard alert systems are to work.
The investigation was the first test of the CAP mechanism in a multilingual environment. The researchers stress the need to further develop and apply this crucial communication tool. They recommend establishing a special working group to tackle interoperability issues like language and message display capabilities.
The exercises made plain the difficulties of providing effective training using volunteer trainers. A follow-up project seeks to remedy this problem by offering training and related services to coastal tourist hotels, in addition to Sarvodaya villages.
A related challenge concerns the shortness of any society's attention span. In the absence of frequent crises and alerts, how can a nation — or even a village — sustain the continuing levels of preparedness essential to ensure that, when the next big wave comes rolling in and the sirens sound, its people will have the motivation and the capacity to act? The follow-up project seeks to address this worry by preparing the hotels and villages to respond to different types of hazards, rather than only to the relatively rare tsunamis.
"The best tribute we can pay to all who perished or suffered in this disaster is to heed its powerful lessons. We need to address the long-term issues of better disaster preparedness, functional early warning systems and realistic arrangements to cope with not just tsunamis, but a multitude of other hazards. Technology can certainly be part of that solution, but in the end, it depends critically on sound management and nations working together."
–Sir Arthur Clarke, late science fiction writer who first proposed the idea for geostationary orbit for communication satellites
"All the sophisticated technology won't matter if we don't reach real communities and people. Satellites, buoys, data networks will make us safer, but we must invest in the training, the instituion building, the awareness-raising on the ground."
– Bill Clinton, former United States President and former United Nations Special Envoy for Tsunami Recovery
