Merle Dixon is a survivor first encountered in "Guts", the second episode of The Walking Dead. He is one of the members of the original Atlanta band, along with his younger brother, Daryl. The Dixon brothers are unique to the show in that they do not exist within the continuity of the Comic Series.
Appearance and Personality
Merle is a tall Caucasian male with a rugged build. He has short grey hair and commonly is seen with light facial hair.
An unruly and quick-tempered Southern redneck, Merle is extremely ill-tempered, racist, violent, volatile, and quick to express his beliefs. Much like his younger brother, Merle is an expert tracker and hunter. He is deadly with firearms, and in the third season, his hand-blade attachment proves to be one of his deadliest weapons. He is an experienced bruiser, showcased in the first season when he dominated T-Dog in a fist-fight, and at the same time was able to fend off Rick, Morales, and Glenn simultaneously. He also shows his fighting abilities when he took down Caesar in the brutal battle-royal event in Woodbury, and was able to fend off Michonne's sword attacks with his hand-blade. Merle was The Governor's right-hand man, all the while striving to find his brother and take vengeance on Rick, who left him for dead on the roof. Merle has since been branded as a traitor and a terrorist by The Governor, and is now an enemy of Woodbury.
North Georgia
Merle and Daryl lived somewhere in the mountains of North Georgia with their neglectful parents; their father being an alcoholic and their mother being both that and a chain-smoker. When they were both little, they lost their mother to a house fire that had been caused by her cigarette while she was asleep. Because of the lack of love and guidance he was given, Merle chose to act out against society, which led him to frequently be incarcerated in juvenile institutions. He raised Daryl to share the same beliefs and also become tough in the cruel adult world that both of them faced. Despite talking proudly about taking care of Daryl, Merle, like their father, was often absent from Daryl's life and didn't give him the emotional support that a big brother should.
In his adult years, Merle was briefly enrolled in the military, as shown by his physical strength and skill with firearms. He once punched a non-commissioned officer (Sergeant), which got him dishonorably discharged. He was then sent to prison for sixteen months and most likely court-martialed.[1]
Survival Instinct
It has been confirmed that The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct will deal with Merle and Daryl before the events of Season 1.
Season 1
Merle is one of the Atlanta survivors who left the refugee camp to gather supplies in Atlanta with Glenn, Andrea, Jacqui, T-Dog and Morales.
When the department store is besieged by walkers, Dixon fires his rifle at several of them. T-Dog demands that he stops firing as it will draw more walkers. After Merle insults him by calling him a "nigger," T-Dog throws a punch which Merle parries with the rifle and the two begin to brawl. Though Rick, Morales and Glenn attempt to intervene, Merle single-handedly knocks them down and viciously beats T-Dog, establishing his dominance by spitting on the man. After declaring himself leader, he is blind-sided by Rick, who punches him out and handcuffs him to a pipe before Dixon can cause further harm. Rick then confiscates Merle's cocaine and tosses it off the side of the building, infuriating him. He is then put under the watch of T-Dog while the other survivors attempt to find a way out of the city. When the survivors do find a way out, T-Dog attempts to save Dixon but accidentally drops the handcuff keys into a vent, forcing him to abandon Dixon on the rooftop, as he flees after locking the rooftop door shut with chains. He is left behind as the survivors escape Atlanta.
"Tell It to the Frogs"
Left alone, he begins the stages of accepting his fate (praying, bargaining, etc.), until he begins to fight again, this time with the pipe he is cuffed to. As he hallucinates (whether due to his known drug habits or heat stroke, or a combination) that zombies have invaded the building and are reaching the chained door to the rooftop, Merle struggles harder until he notices the spilled tools that the others had left behind. He uses his belt to attempt reaching a hacksaw and succeeds in cutting off his hand to escape. This is the last time Merle is seen in Season 1.
Rick, Glenn, Daryl, and T-Dog follow a trail of blood, and discover that Merle used the hacksaw to sever off his hand, and then proceeded to cauterize it with a Bunsen burner. He then killed two walkers with a wrench before leaving the building. Daryl takes Merle's severed hand with them, and later uses it to scare Miguel into revealing the location of the Vatos hideout. It is unknown if he takes the hand back to camp with him. It is believed that Merle stole the van Rick, Glenn, T-Dog, and Daryl used to return to Atlanta, and fled the city in it, although the fact he never returned to camp suggests otherwise.
Season 2
Merle's whereabouts are completely unknown throughout Season 2. Almost no one in the group is concerned about where he is, if he is alive or dead, or even finding him, aside from Daryl.
Merle reappears in an injured Daryl's dream, in which he taunts Daryl for giving up, telling him to be tougher. He also tells Daryl to stand up to Rick, even suggesting that Daryl shoot him, and mentioning that Rick handcuffed him and left him to die on the roof of the department store. As a result of this vision, Daryl is able to pull himself up from the gorge he'd fallen into. Daryl also promises Merle in the hallucination that someday he will find him.
Season 3
"Walk With Me"
Andrea and Michonne see a helicopter crashing into a forest nearby. The pair decide to investigate it, but are forced to hide as a group of strangers in vehicles start to arrive. As the pair observe the group of strangers, Merle catches them off-guard. Michonne was aware of his presence but was too late to act, as Merle already had them at gunpoint. He recognizes Andrea when she turns around, then quickly dispatches a walker that had sneaked up on him with a knife. It is revealed that Merle's severed arm is covered by a self-made metal covering, with a bayonet attached to it.
As night falls, Andrea finds herself tied up and able to see through the blindfold on her head. She finds herself in the backseat of a moving vehicle, seeing Merle right next to her. Merle motions her to keep quiet. Eventually, Andrea wakes up feeling much better, after being treated by a doctor. Merle then enters, and starts a more proper conversation with her, one they haven't had since the last time they saw each other. He tells her that before being found by The Governor, he was bleeding out and starving to death, and was hoping to commit suicide so that he could "take a nice, long nap" and wait for his brother on the other side. He still remembers what Rick did him, and still despises him for it. Andrea catches him up, telling him that Daryl has earned his place in the group, and that they've lost many people along the way, including Amy. In a rare show of compassion, Merle expresses his condolence for Amy's death.
The Governor enters the room, after whispering something to Merle. He then takes the pair out to show them Woodbury. Merle demonstrates his role by climbing a fortified barricade and taking a rifle. He shows that he can still shoot a machine gun despite losing his hand, taking out three walkers in three shots.
The next day, Merle is found in a makeshift lab, working with Milton Mamet, a researcher. As The Governor enters, the two are caught having a disagreement about something; The Governor stops them, comparing their small outburst to a school fight. When The Governor asks about Andrea, Merle reveals that he used to be part of her group in Atlanta. The Governor tells him to interrogate her more, and dismisses him. Meanwhile, while Milton is showing his latest findings, he insists to The Governor that Merle isn't the right man for the job, and that it should be him.
Later on in the day, The Governor is seen driving to a national guard outpost that was revealed by Lieutenant Welles, the only survivor from the helicopter crash. He pretends to be innocent by proposing for them to move to his settlement, then quickly pulls a gun out and shoots Corporal Brad, the first man that approached him. This was a signal for Merle and the rest to open fire at them, quickly dispatching all of the soldiers as they were caught off-guard. After successfully killing all of them, Merle and the rest take their equipment, and return to Woodbury.
"Killer Within"
After receiving a map by Andrea to show Merle where the Greene Family Farm was, Merle decided to make an effort to go and find Daryl and his location, but after asking Andrea if he was still alive, Andrea didn't know and mentioned that the attack on Hershel's farm was eight months ago.
He then decided to converse about himself and Andrea on why they didn't hook up as a couple, but after having the discussion, Merle then goes to talk to the The Governor and tells him that he has made up his mind to go search for his brother in which The Governor rejects his request and tells him that he is needed in Woodbury. The Governor then tells Merle that if he got more solid evidence of Daryl's whereabouts, then The Governor would go and find Daryl along with Merle.
"Say the Word"
Merle is one of many participating in a day of celebration put on by The Governor. He appears with The Governor and Milton as they retrieve more drinks from The Governor's apartment. Although Milton suggests that they postpone the night's party, Merle rejects the offer. The Governor agrees with Merle.
Next, Merle goes to a sandy back-lot hidden behind The Governor's apartment, holding a bucket of bloody meat. His intention was to feed captive Walkers kept in a cage. However, he discovers Michonne has let the Walkers out and killed them with her sword.
Merle escorts her back to The Governor, giving her sword back to him, and leaves. After Michonne storms out, Merle asks The Governor what happened. He says that Michonne has quite a personality, but she is no problem.
Later, Merle drives out to the wind generator located outside Woodbury with Milton and a few others. Discovering they have caught two Walkers in a netted trap, Merle kills one Walker while Milton holds her down. He wrestles the other Walker down and begins pulling out its teeth.
During the afternoon, Merle stops Andrea and Michonne from leaving through the gate. He informs them that they will need an escort. When he whispers to the guard, and Andrea tries to interject, he orders her to back up. Michonne decides to leave alone, and they let her go.
That night, Merle is seen as one of two brawlers participating in a twisted wrestling match, surrounded by chained Walkers. All of Woodbury cheers him on as he beats up his opponent, Caesar Martinez. What the people don't know is that none of the zombies in the arena have teeth.
Merle goes off hunting for the escaped Michonne with three other Woodbury men. He locates her and begins to taunt her in order to receive a reaction. Afterwards, Michonne kills two of his subordinates. Merle chases her down and shoots her in the thigh before losing her trail. Merle regroups with his other companion, Gargulio, who he mocks because of his name. He rushes to leave, for the bullets will attract walkers. Michonne attempts to attack Merle again, but all three become disoriented in the fight. Walkers arrive, causing Merle to ignore Michonne for a moment. A walker attacks him, but forces it back. Gargulio stabs it in the head, saving Merle, as Michonne escapes amongst the commotion. Merle kills the last walker before complimenting Gargulio for "rising up to the occasion". Merle assesses that Michonne is as good as dead and plans to lie to The Governor about the events that had taken place, but Gargulio objects. Gargulio refuses to lie to The Governor, so Merle shoots him in the head while he is distracted by a bird call.
Some time after, Merle follows Michonne into the "Red-Zone" where he confronts Glenn and Maggie on a food and supply run. Michonne watches from behind a car as Merle questions Glenn about Daryl. When Glenn refuses to take Merle along, because of his knife prosthetic, Merle shoots at them and holds Maggie hostage. Michonne begins to intervene, but stops when Merle orders Glenn to drive them to Woodbury.
Later on, Merle interrupts The Governor and Andrea as they are having sex. The Governor walks out to talk to Merle, who reveals to him that he's captured Glenn and his "pretty little girlfriend". They decide not to reveal this to Andrea, and Merle leaves, stating that he's going to find out where they were holed up.
"When the Dead Come Knocking"
Merle brutally interrogates Glenn to find out the location of the camp where the Atlanta survivors are held up. Despite the brutality, Glenn still does not reveal anything. Merle eventually becomes frustrated and leaves a walker in the room with Glenn, hoping that it would kill him. However, he ends up killing the walker in a matter of minutes with a piece of the broken chair he was duct-taped to. Eventually, Merle, Caesar, and Philip learn the location of the prison from Maggie after Philip threatens to shoot Glenn. At the end of the episode, The Governor questions where his loyalty lies, and Merle assures him that his loyalty is no longer to the Atlanta group or his brother, but to Woodbury and The Governor.
"Made to Suffer"
Merle converses with Philip, who is interested in ambushing the prison and enlisting Daryl as an, "inside man". Merle requests that nothing happen to Daryl, and Philip complies, ordering Merle to take Glenn and Maggie to the "screamer pits". Merle and Warren are ambushed by Glenn and Maggie, and Warren is killed when Maggie stabs him in the throat. Merle is held at gunpoint by Maggie, but is stopped when Martinez arrives. Glenn and Maggie are restrained, but Merle and the group are ambushed by Rick's group, and they successfully rescue Glenn and Maggie. Merle participates in the shootout between the Woodbury soldiers and visits Philip at the doctor after he is stabbed in the eye by Michonne. The Woodbury citizens are all called into the walker pit, where Merle is accused of betraying them all. Merle is shocked when the Woodbury soldiers bring in Daryl, who was captured during the shootout. Philip asks the residents what should be done with the terrorists. The Dixon brothers are finally reunited after nearly a year apart as the crowd cheers for their deaths.
"The Suicide King"
In the arena, Phillip orders Merle and Daryl to fight to the death, with the winner walking away free. Merle says that he will do whatever he can to prove his loyalty to Woodbury before punching and kicking Daryl. On the ground, Merle orders Daryl to follow his lead, proving he has no intentions on killing him. During the attack on Woodbury by Rick's group, Merle knocks down Shupert and escapes with Rick and Maggie. Glenn and Michonne are not happy to see Merle and attempt to attack him. Merle begins to insult the group, but is knocked out by Rick. Daryl later departs with Merle, refusing to leave his brother behind again.
Merle will appear in this episode.
Killed Victims
This list shows the victims Merle has killed:
- Tim (Before Reanimation)
- Gargulio
- Wilson
- Five U.S Military soldiers
- Numerous counts of zombies and unnamed people.
Daryl Dixon
- "You're a joke is what you are. Playin' errand boy to a bunch of pansy-asses, niggers, and democrats."
- —Merle to Daryl during Daryl's hallucination.[src]
Daryl was raised by his brother to share his beliefs. Merle was Daryl's biggest influence growing up, and was also apparently the only member of their family that paid any attention to him growing up. When the apocalypse broke out, Merle and Daryl worked together and easily survived. When Daryl found out in "Tell It to the Frogs", that Merle had been left for dead by the group, he became furious. After discovering Merle had escaped Daryl had no doubts his brother was still alive. Daryl was the only person during Season 2 who was interested in looking for his brother, and even had an hallucination about Merle in "Chupacabra". In the hallucination, however, Daryl expressed his own dislike of his brother and how Merle was never really there for him and how he lived in Merle's shadow. Although it did seem to be implied that the image of his brother tormenting him was the only thing to help him survive in such a broken down state, possibly a testament to tough love that Merle gave him, and his understanding of this is why he still cares for his brother.
In Season 3, after being captured, Daryl finally reunites with his brother for the first time since the Atlanta camp. When faced with leaving his Merle behind at the end of "The Suicide King", Daryl chooses to go with his brother out on their own instead of returning to the prison without him. This shows that despite his participation in the harsh treatment of Michonne, Glenn and Maggie in Woodbury, Daryl's bond with his brother is still very strong.
The Governor
Merle and The Governor seem to be close allies. Merle is Philip's right hand man, and Merle accompanies Philip when they go out to gain supplies. Merle seems to be in The Governor's inner circle, along with Milton Mamet. Although Merle is Philip's right hand man, some tension can be seen between the two. This can be seen in the episode, "Killer Within", when Philip denies Merle permission to look for his brother unless he gets more solid evidence. It is also worth noting that Merle seems to fear Philip to some degree. In "Hounded", Merle decides to lie to him about Michonne's fate, rather than have Philip think of him as a failure. The Governor also keeps Merle under control through intimidation, as seen in "Walk With Me", where he tells Merle that he hasn't changed at all and reminds him how grateful he should be to the Governor. Merle is betrayed by The Governor in "Made to Suffer", as he blames him for allowing the Prison group into Woodbury, effectively ending their positive relationship. The true reason behind this is that Merle lied to him about killing Michonne, which cost him his eye and the life of his zombified daughter.
After his escape from Woodbury, Merle later admits that the Governor is a 'smooth talker.' Whether this is due to the Governor betraying him or not remains unknown.
- "Now, how's about a big hug for your old pal Merle, huh?"
- —Merle to Andrea, seeing her for the first time since Atlanta.[src]
Merle and Andrea's relationship was, in the beginning, poor. In Atlanta, he beat T-Dog and made racist comments towards Morales. He also declared himself in charge, which angered Andrea and the rest of the group. In "Walk With Me", after bringing Andrea and Michonne to Woodbury, he discovers the Atlanta group members' deaths from Andrea, being sympathetic about Amy and asking about Daryl. In "Killer Within", Merle is given information on the farm from Andrea so he can look for Daryl and asks why they never, "hooked up". Andrea answers that he called her a "whore" and a "rug-muncher". Merle smiles, saying that he has a way with words, and the conversation ends with the two appearing to have buried the hatchet. In a promo for "The Suicide King", Andrea stands up for Daryl, calling him a friend, yet doesn't stand up for Merle despite their recent friendship.
Amy and Merle were never shown together onscreen, but when Andrea was reunited with Merle in the Season 3 episode, "Walk With Me", after telling him that Amy was dead (among others from the group), Merle apologizes for her loss, saying that, "she was a good kid". Whether or not this meant that the two interacted, Merle was most likely being sympathetic.
- " Why don't you knock that crap off? You're giving me a headache, boy. "
- —Merle to T-Dog over speaking into the radio.[src]
T-Dog and Merle had a poor relationship from the beginning due to Merle's racism: calling T-Dog a "nigger" and beating him. It worsened when T-Dog refused to release him and accidentally dropped the keys to Merle's cuffs down a drain, forcing Merle to amputate his own hand. When Merle learns of T-Dog's death, he comments, "Well, I hope he went slow."
Rick Grimes
- "Yeah, Rick. He's that prick that cuffed me to the rooftop."
- —Merle recounting to Andrea Rick's involvement in his amputation.[src]
Rick handcuffed Merle to the roof, causing him to be abandoned and forcing him to amputate his own hand in order to escape. As revealed in, "Walk with Me", Merle expresses to Andrea that he has not forgotten Rick's involvement in his amputation, and severely despises him. Merle is no doubt seeking vengeance on Rick, and wants him dead. Then after Rick saved him and Daryl, Merle still harbored a grudge against Rick, leading the latter to pistol-whip him unconscious after continually taunting him and being told to shut up.
Glenn Rhee
- "You're a pretty big snack for this fella, but you know what they say....he's just gonna be hungry again in an hour."
- —Merle before setting a walker on Glenn.[src]
Not much is known of Glenn and Merle's relationship, but Glenn may have found Merle untrustworthy due to him often abusing the Atlanta Group. In Season 3, Merle captured Glenn and Maggie and took them to Woodbury, where he interrogated Glenn on where the remaining Atlanta Survivors were located, including Rick. Merle attacked and beat Glenn continuously and even went as far as bringing in a walker to attempt to persuade Glenn to talk. Glenn and Maggie gave up the location of the prison but then shortly afterward, Rick, Michonne, Oscar, and Daryl breached Woodbury's walls, rescuing Glenn and Maggie.
Milton Mamet
Merle and Milton often disagreed on certain topics from time to time, including on how Merle was unable to work with Milton on researching the walkers. Merle did complement him on his duct tape armor, leaving Milton satisfied. Milton often questioned Merle's actions on how to handle certain situations, but Milton was able to work with Merle despite their differences before The Governor betrayed Merle after Rick and his group attacked Woodbury.
Shane Walsh
Shane and Merle were never seen together, but Shane did not like Merle much. He even went as far as to attempt and convince Rick not to go back for Merle and the Bag of Guns after Merle was handcuffed and abandoned in Atlanta. In Season 2, when Shane had a talk with Lori about Rick's abilities of being a leader, one of Rick's characteristics that was mentioned was when how he went back for Merle on a, "suicide mission to save a drug dealer."
Morales and Merle didn't seem to get along very well. Merle was shooting walkers on a roof in Atlanta, which Morales and the Atlanta group didn't agree with due to the fact that he was wasting bullets and attracting more walkers in the process. Merle then called Morales a, "taco vendor", claiming Morales to have been on his case all day. This lead to Merle attacking Morales, T-Dog, and Rick, announcing his leadership of the group. Before anything else could happen, Rick attacked Merle with a rifle and handcuffed him to a pipe. Morales and the rest of the group abandoned Merle, even after T-Dog lost the keys to Merle's cuffs. Morales pressed to Rick to not feel remorseful about Merle being abandoned, as no one would be angered of his loss at the Atlanta camp, other than Merle's own brother, Daryl.
Merle and The Governor trained Gargulio as part of Woodbury's army. Due to Merle's inaccurate pronunciation of Gargulio's name, Merle just called him, "Neil". While hunting down Michonne after she departed Woodbury, Gargulio was starting to get nervous about the mission, but Merle told him to snap out of it. When Michonne came out of the blue and killed Tim and Crowley, Merle and Neil were chasing down Michonne before walkers showed up and attacked Merle and Neil, allowing Michonne to escape. Neil saved Merle's life by killing one of the walkers that was fighting Merle. Afterwards, Merle wanted to go back to Woodbury because he assumed that Michonne was surely dead. Neil, however, wanted to chase down Michonne because he thought they were close to killing her and still believed that they would have a chance of killing her. Merle had another idea, wanting to lie to The Governor about Michonne, but Neil still wanted to go on and track Michonne down. Merle then killed Gargulio shortly after the argument.
- "Whats the deal Michonne, you gonna leap out of the woods one against four, all of us armed to the teeth...and you with just your pig-sticker, no no no, Michonne."
- —Merle to Michonne.[src]
The two first meet when he caught her and Andrea looking over the helicopter crash site. Initially showing a racist attitude toward African-Americans, Merle does not insult her, showing his change as a person after The Governor saves him. After she leaves Woodbury, Merle is instructed to take a group to hunt her down and kill her. He is unable to accomplish his task and lies to The Governor by saying she is dead.
Michonne's view of The Governor contrasts Merle's view of him. She believes him to be dangerous while he says he's a good man, though this view ultimately changes following the Governor accusing Merle of betrayal.
The Walking Dead TV Series
Season 1
Season 2
Season 3
- Merle is one of many new characters introduced in the TV Series that does not appear in the Comic Series.
- Daryl's motorcycle was previously owned by Merle.
- Before the apocalypse, Merle was most likely a drug dealer.
- While filming on the roof in Atlanta, it caused some trouble. In the scene where Merle is shooting a sniper rifle from the roof, citizens of Atlanta didn't know they were filming a TV show and thought there was a sniper on the roof, so a Swat Team was called to the roof where the filming was going on, and when they arrived to the rooftop, the producers and directors informed them that they were filming a TV show.
- Merle is one of the many amputees in The Walking Dead. For other victims, see Amputated Victims.
- Merle managed to cut off his own hand with a hack saw.
- Merle has a number of ethnic slurs that he uses against people of different minorities to show his racism.
- Merle has a tendency to call others with the names he makes up himself:
- Daryl Dixon (Little Baby Brother, Darlina)
- Andrea (Blondie, Sugar Tits, Rug-Muncher, Whore)
- Morales (Taco Vendor)
- T-Dog (Nigger, Spear-Chucker, Mr. Yo)
- Caesar Martinez (Brownie)
- Gargulio (Neil)
- Though this is due to him not being able to pronounce Garguilo's name.
- Michonne (Mute)
- Milton Mamet (Miltie)
- Maggie Greene (Bo-Peep)
- Rick Grimes (The Sheriff, Officer Friendly)
- Merle has a tendency to call others with the names he makes up himself:
- According to his brother, he got the Clap on occasion and had to take serious antibiotics and drugs.
- In Daryl's hallucination, Merle had both of his hands.
- It is likely that Merle belonged to some white supremacist organization. This speculation is due to the fact that his motorcycle bears SS (Schutzstaffel) insignia, or it is possible that he is a Neo-Nazi.
- Merle is featured in the new Walking Dead video game currently under development by Terminal Reality.
- Michael Rooker lost 28 pounds in order to prepare for Merle's return in Season 3.[2]
- In the TV series, Merle is the first character to have a substitute appendage on an amputated limb (Dale has a peg leg in the Comic Series to replace his amputated leg).
- In "Walk With Me", Merle reveals to Andrea that he believes in an afterlife.
- In "Hounded", Merle chooses not to reveal to The Governor that Michonne has survived, due to the fear of his wrath. This is similar to how Dwight decides not to tell Negan about Paul Monroe's escape, for the same reason. [3][4]
- "Made to Suffer" is the first episode where Merle and Daryl are physically seen together.
- The Governor betrayed Merle due to his loyalties being questionable and Merle failing to fulfill his mission to kill Michonne (and subsequently lying about Michonne being dead), resulting in Penny's death and The Governor losing his right eye.

KGMI News Reporting
By Karen Taylor
OLYMPIA, Wash. – Washington workers are getting paid a bit more, but the trend upward is skewed by King County tech jobs.
The state's average annual wage went up 2 percent last year to about $52,600.
Jeff Robinson with the Employment Security Department says much of it comes from a surge in higher-paying tech jobs in the Seattle area.
Industries with the highest wage growth include company management, arts and recreation, and retail trade.

With less than a week remaining until Opening Day, the only development in the Padres' TV situation Friday was an exchange of strong words between Fox Sports San Diego and Time Warner Cable.
One day after FSSD said it did not expect to have an agreement with Time Warner or AT&T U-Verse in place by the Padres' season opener on Thursday, the cable operator said Fox was being "unreasonable."
"We continue to negotiate for the right to put the Padres games on the air," said a statement issued by Time Warner. "Fox is currently demanding a 400 percent price increase over the price we paid for the Padres last year. That is unreasonable and it's the main issue."
But Fox said the two situations are not comparable.
"Time Warner's comparison is absurd," the company said in a statement. "FS San Diego is a new 24/7 local sports network featuring more than 150 Padres games and more than 300 pro and collegiate events.
"For Time Warner to compare it to a completely different channel that wasn't owned by Fox is a smoke screen to avoid paying a fair-market rate."
Neither company would be specific about how much Fox is seeking for the games. Time Warner also would not say how much it paid Cox Communications for Padres games last season, or how much it was offering FSSD.
AT&T U-verse also issued a statement that said only: "We're still in discussions but don't have any updates to share at this time."
Fox, which has a 20-year deal to televise the Padres pending approval from Major League Baseball, said it was continuing negotiations with Dish Network.
Cox Communications already has a deal to carry FSSD on channels 56/1056, and DirecTV will carry Padres games on channel 694.

Last week an impassioned debate took place at the Anchorage Parks and Recreation Commission regarding motorized winter use at the Kinkaid/Jodhpur area. The question before the commission: is Kincaid Park the right place for winter motor sports? Which leads to the question, if not the Jodhpur motor sports area, is there any place in the Anchorage Bowl that is an appropriate place for winter motor sports?
The Jodhpur site used to be a gravel pit and a car crushing facility -- two uses that we would have a hard time fathoming in that location today. The 1983 Kincaid Master Plan established Kincaid as primarily a pedestrian park area. The plan mentioned ATV use at the Jodhpur site, but recommended that it be discontinued at Jodhpur and moved elsewhere. In 2006 the Kincaid Master Plan was updated. The Jodhpur motor sport area was mentioned in the updated plan in terms of its existence and improvements having been made through a grant. Not much else was said. Winter use of the area was not discussed.
Currently the Jodhpur motor sport area operates under an agreement with the Anchorage Racing Lions. They carry liability insurance, manage the site, control access, pick up trash and educate their members on proper use, rules and etiquette. This arrangement seems to be working. However, winter motor sport users feel left out. The motocross area is currently open 10 a.m. Wednesday to 8:30 p.m. Sunday from April through November. They complain that their summer hours have been cut back and there are no winter use areas. They want a place to install jumps, race snocross, teach kids to ride, demo a machine or test repairs before heading out of town.
The ski community has tolerated the summer only motorized use of the Jodhpur site. But with the prospect of winter use they have drawn a line in the snow. They contend that it is not compatible with skiing, there will be too much noise and smoke and riders will be lured onto adjacent ski trails causing damage and creating a safety hazard.
The Sand Lake Community Council wrote a letter of "enthusiastic support "for the snocross proposal -- except that they stopped short of giving any level of direct support-enthusiastic or otherwise- to the Jodhpur site or any site that is actually in the Sand Lake Community.
Neighbors testified that they have been fighting motorized use at the park for 33 years. Motorized users commented that they resent people building homes next to an existing motorized area and then complaining about it. They undoubtedly find some irony in hearing these homeowners' complaints about noise when they look up to see a 747 on final approach at the adjacent airport.
I see a variety of passionate and committed groups advocating for their rights and working through complex emotional issues. Frankly it's encouraging to witness, especially the involvement of so many young people. From a Parks and Recreations standpoint, it's a good problem to have.
Anchorage has a parks system that reflects who we are as a city and a people. It is diverse, vibrant and active. We have the non-profit Anchorage Park Foundation with a dedicated staff that is generously supported with both money and volunteer efforts throughout the community. The Anchorage Park Foundation web site lists the following: over 10,000 acres of parkland, 223 parks, 250 miles of trails, 110 multiuse fields, 5 pools, 11 recreation centers (chalets and indoor rinks), 82 playgrounds -- and one summer motor -sports area.
Is Anchorage ready to put 33 years of bickering and close-mindedness behind it, to understand and empathize with each other a little more, and find a solution that goes beyond half-measures?

Olympics approve Sikh knives, will test hijabs for Muslim soccer women
The International Olympic Committee finds itself in a swirl of controversy for scheduling the London Summer Olympics during Ramadan -- and dithering over whether Muslim women can wear head-coverings
However, the Iranian women are holding onto a shread of hope after FIFA's International Football Association Board heard a heart-felt appeal last weekend from FIFA Vice President Ali Bin al-Hussein, and agreeed to allow Muslim players to test over the next four months Dutch-designed headscarves held secure by Velcro.
No announcement has been made on whether their forfeited match with Jordan can be rescheduled under Olympic rules.
Prince Ali's campaign to lift the ban has received widespread support
from the United Nations, the Asian Football Confederation, the International Federation of Professional Footballers and members of FIFA's own executive committee.
"I am deeply grateful that the proposal to allow women to wear the headscarf was unanimously endorsed by all members of IFAB," said Prince Ali after the new verdict. "I welcome their decision for an accelerated process to further test the current design and I'm confident that once the final ratification at the special meeting of IFAB takes place, we will see many delighted and happy players returning to the field and playing the game they love."
Why are daggers OK, but not scarves? Safety, says FIFA. The four-month experiment will test whether Dutch-designed hijabs will stay in place. FIFA allows the Sikh kirpans since they are concealed under the uniform and pose no safety issues – the same allowance already made for religious necklaces and rosaries if they are concealed underneath uniforms.
London police will allow the Sikh daggers through security as long as they are less than three inches long and carried by Sikhs observing the traditional five-point requirement of unshorn hair and beard, a ritual comb, a steel bracelet, special garments and the kirpan.
This is hardly the first religious dilemma facing the Olympics. Annually food-preparers in the Olympic Village face a daunting task of providing meals. For example, Koreans, Chinese and Japanese athletes prefer different kinds of rice and many Asian athletes expect a variety of noodles for breakfast. Hindus can't eat beef, a number of faiths can't eat pork, Jews can only eat food from kosher kitchens and Muslims require hallal-prepared food.
The very first games in 700 B.C., the Olympics had religious overtones and the strictest of regulations regarding head coverings – or any other covering. Athletes competed nude to ensure that no special gear gave anybody an advantage. Events were sandwiched between processions, sacrifices, altar rituals and banquets honoring the Greek gods. Unmarried girls could watch the games, but married women could not. Both were allowed to participate in an alternative sport festival that honored the goddess Hera, a consort of Zeus. The female athletes wore a short, knee-length tunic.

There was a time when cowboys like Corey Navarre could walk down the streets of Atlanta and not turn a head, when you were more likely to see the likes of Cord McCoy and Dustin Elliott in an Ardmore, Okla., arena than a sold-out Madison Square Garden, and when anyone who heard "PBR" assumed the subject was beer.
How times have changed.
The Pueblo-based Professional Bull Riders arrived in Denver for this week's National Western Stock Show with a newly inked television deal — its biggest yet — and a 2012 schedule that includes events in the Georgia Dome and Cowboys Stadium, in addition to New York and other major metropolitan cities.
But the single biggest difference compared with the organization's humble beginnings 20 years ago?
"It pays better," said Elliott, a North Platte, Neb., cowboy who competes in PBR's elite Built Ford Tough Series and rode in Denver on Monday. "It's a business now."
According to PBR officials, the organization has paid out more than $100 million to its riders, with 21 cowboys having earned more than $1 million each. Brazilian rider Silvano Alves, the 2011 world champion, won $1.8 million in his first year and a half with the PBR — an average of $100,000 per month.
McCoy — among the most recognized riders, for his red hair and two seasons on CBS's "The Amazing Race" — said it's all about television.
"You get that exposure, and it brings in corporate sponsors, then more money and more people breeding bulls," he said. "Now you have 40 cities fighting for your event."
While it may seem like the PBR has seen a huge rise in popularity in recent years, chief operating officer Sean Gleason said it has been more of a "slow and steady climb" since 20 riders came together in an Arizona hotel room and decided to form a stand-alone organization to operate separately from the rodeo circuit.
The first network-TV event in 2001 was "huge," Gleason said, but the PBR continues to grow one fan at a time.
Like the other PBR — Pabst Blue Ribbon, the beer that the Professional Bull Riders announced a promotional deal with earlier this year — a lot of people's perception of bull riding is based on limited exposure and experience, Gleason said.
"Professional bull riding is a sport that people discover, still to this day," he said. "Then they discover us, and they realize it's something different than what they thought: It's exciting, contemporary . . . with great athletes. It's like 'Aha!' "
While the hard-core fans remain those who grew up with bull riding as part of the rodeo and stayed with it when the PBR broke away, the newest, growing demographic is the 24- to 35-year- olds who see the sport on TV for the first time and are hooked.
Among them is Leo Ramirez, 25, of Denver, who was in the stands early for Monday night's PBR Touring Pro Division event at the National Western. Ramirez caught his first glimpse of the PBR on television four years ago.
"I loved it right away," he said. "After that, I had to watch it live."
Sisters Sierra and Felicity Moots were waiting outside the cowboys' dressing area, snagging autographs and pictures with their favorite riders.
Sierra, 14, and Felicity, 10, have grown up attending PBR events with their parents — and Felicity has the rider signatures on the brim of her white cowgirl hat to prove it.
One of the biggest draws, they'll admit with a smile, is that the cowboys are pretty cute. But the girls are also fans of the extreme, dangerous action.
"It makes your heart pound," Sierra said.
One of the riders who has been around the longest is Navarre, an Oklahoma cowboy riding professionally since 1998. The increased number of fans, he said, is noticeable while walking in downtown Atlanta — where he was stopped recently by fans asking if he was a bull rider — and in the much larger stadiums.
"It's a lot louder," Navarre said.
Elliott, whose next stop will be the Built Ford Tough Series event in Anaheim, Calif., this weekend, is hoping the noise continues.
"I want to make enough money riding bulls that I don't have to get a real job and I don't ever have a boss," Elliott said. "Except for my wife."

Lovely gameartisall | June 7, 2014 | Review of The Banner Saga Deluxe - PC
This game was refreshing. I wasn't sure what I was expecting when I booted it up, but I was pleasantly surprised to be surrounded in a rich world, full of color and life. The art style is right up my alley and the music sucks you right into the story. The writing is absolutely charming and anyone who likes this period in history and enjoys story driven well executed games, would be please by this title. It's different than what we're used to, but definitely a welcomed change.
A game that stole 500 hours of my lifeartisall | June 7, 2014 | Review of The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim Legendary Edition Bethesda - PC
And I don't regret a single minute of it. its been years since this title was released and I still come back every once and awhile to go spelunking in some cave or chase down some Daedra. With more and more mods releasing regularly, there are times I feel like it's a different game entirely. If you enjoy adventure, exploring and picking up everything (I think I have 400 tomatoes in Breezehome), then this is the title for you. No, Skyrim isn't perfect, no game is. I wish that the NPC reacted more to the world around them that I was supposedly 'changing', and the combat could definitely feel better, like I was actually hitting something, because as cool as I feel charging out into the wilderness, I don't feel very dangerous when I can't feel the power behind my swings or the impact from my fireballs. All and all, a great game for those who want to loose hours exploring, looting and surrounding yourselves with companions who bug the ever loving crap out of you.

Pregnancy Test Help!
I have been on the NUVARING for the past 5 months and last month stopped and am now 3 days late with very minimal period cramps. I took a Rite Aid test and a very faint line showed up which later on turned to a dark thin line, took 3 Dollar Tree tests at all different times and each time it was negative at first but later on ( past the 10 min mark) each one showed up positive. I am just very confused and before I start making myself crazy, I was curious what everyone thought or experienced themselves. I am a very happy mother of 2 already but never experienced that. I think its my body getting adjusted after the NUVARING causing my period to be late, but the confusing tests have me wondering.

Congrats on your BFP!!posted 10/24/2013 by cjsilver55
Thank you, took a First Response and got a BFP within a minute!!posted 10/24/2013 by a BabyCenter Member
You can always take a digital test to confirm, those are supposedly more accurate. But, your first test could possibly be right! I am not 100% on the ''don't look after 10 min'' rule, other than you aren't supposed to look. But sometimes the cheaper tests don't register HCG until it's a bigger amount. So your first test could have been a test with a lower detection amount, where as the others needed a higher amount. GL!posted 10/22/2013 by cjsilver55

The Open Cloud Computing Interface (OCCI) is an open protocol for cloud computing services. It initially targets the infrastructure services (IaaS) layer but its modular design which extends this OCCI Core Specification allows for future targeting of the platform services (PaaS) and application services (SaaS) layers on a future roadmap.
A Representational State Transfer (REST) protocol, it deviates from the underlying HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) only where absolutely necessary and could be described as a "Resource Oriented Architecture (ROA)".RWS Unlike other envelope-based protocols such as Atom and SOAP (which describe complex XML-based structures for data transferred within the HTTP payload, essentially duplicating HTTP's built in header-based metadata functionality), OCCI provides a "clean channel" over which any suitable format can travel without modification or wrapping, using HTTP to its full extent in the way it was intended. OCCI also uses various HTTP verbs in transactions rather than tunneling everything over POST, as was the case with SOAP and the various WS-* protocols. As such all existing HTTP features are available for caching, proxying, gatewaying and other advanced functionality such as partial GETs.
Each resource (i.e. a compute node) is identified by URL(s) and has
one or more native representations (i.e. Open Virtualisation Format or
OVF) as well as a generic XHTML5 rendering. The latter allows for direct
end-user accessibility with well-formed, embedded semantic web markup for
consumption by both human and machine clients. As such OCCI simultaneously
presents both a machine interface (using native resource renderings) and a
user interface (using HTML markup with forms and other web technologies
such as Javascript/Ajax) so as to satisfy all common use cases. HTTP
content negotiation is used to select between alternative representations
and metadata including associations between resources is exposed via HTTP
headers (e.g. the
Link: and
Category: headers).
In this way OCCI is not responsible for the representations themselves, rather it enables users to organise and group resources together to build arbitrarily complex systems of inter-related resources. It relies on existing standards for rendering and does not make any recommendations of one standard format over any other, in the same way as the Internet has many popular image formats.

Servers may require that requests be
authenticated using standard HTTP-based authentication mechanisms
(including OAuth).OAuth They indicate this
requirement by returning
HTTP 401 with a
WWW-Authenticate header and a suitable challenge (e.g.
> GET / HTTP/1.1 > Host: cloud.example.com > < HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized < WWW-Authenticate: OAuth realm="http://sp.example.com/"
The client then includes appropriate
headers in its responses:RFC2617
> GET / HTTP/1.1 > Authorization: OAuth realm="http://sp.example.com/", > oauth_consumer_key="0685bd9184jfhq22", > oauth_token="ad180jjd733klru7", > oauth_signature_method="HMAC-SHA1", > oauth_signature="wOJIO9A2W5mFwDgiDvZbTSMK%2FPY%3D", > oauth_timestamp="137131200", > oauth_nonce="4572616e48616d6d65724c61686176", > oauth_version="1.0"
Servers may set and clients may accept cookies in order to maintain authentication state between requests:RFC2109
Set-Cookie: session=4732518c5fe6dbeb8429cdda11d65c3d; domain=.example.com; path=/
Such sessions should not be used for other purposes (such as server-side state) in line with RESTful principles.
Servers and clients should indicate the
latest version of OCCI they support (e.g.
1.0) by way of the
Server: and
User-Agent: headers respectively,
using the token "
(e.g. "
OCCI/1.0"). If
none is provided the latest (highest supported version number)
available version offered by the server should be
> GET / HTTP/1.1 > Host: cloud.example.com > User-Agent: occi-client/1.0 (linux) libcurl/7.19.4 OCCI/1.0 > < HTTP/1.1 200 OK < Server: Apache/2.2.13 (Unix) OCCI/1.0
A single entry point is defined by a URL (e.g.
http://cloud.example.com/) which may be a collection of
resources or some other page as defined by the implementor (e.g. a
descriptive web page). Therefore OCCI is fully compatible with any
existing web presence such as a marketing site or landing page.
All resources must be addressible by URLs (whose structure is opaque and at the discretion of the implementor) and discoverable via search and/or link traversal from the entry point. Clients should not rely on "rules" to construct URLs, rather learning them from URLs previously retrieved, in line with RESTful principles:
> GET /-/compute/ HTTP/1.1 > Accept: text/uri-list > < HTTP/1.1 200 OK < Content-type: text/uri-list < < /us-east/new-york/node17 < /us-west/san-francisco/node43 < /europe/paris/node38
Implementations may segment the URL space in order to achieve
Internet scale deployments. For example, the single entry point may be
geographically distributed and load balanced while subsets are
allocated to different regions, clusters, nodes, etc. (e.g.
http://cloud.example.com/us/node01/vm01 ->
http://node01.us.example.com/vm01). This can be done
without the knowledge of the client (using HTTP reverse proxies) or on
the client side (using HTTP redirects). Each subset
should be capable of acting as a standalone OCCI
end point or as part of a larger system, such that clients can access
the entire cloud or a single region, cluster or individual node
directly and aggregators can consolidate multiple clouds into a single
"hybrid" cloud.
Clients will typically conduct a
GET or
HEAD request on the root
/") and discover the category search
interface, from which they can learn the supported categories/kinds and
retrieve some or all of them. If they know the URL for the resource they
wish to interact with (e.g. scripts & cron jobs) then they can
bypass the discovery process and manipulate it directly.
Example 1. Example bootstrap
Retrieve a collection of desired resources (having already discovered the category search URL and available categories):
# detect category search interface > GET / HTTP/1.1 > Host: cloud.example.com > < HTTP/1.1 200 OK < Content-type: text/html < Link: </-/>; rel="search"; title="Category Search" < < <html> < <head> < <...> < # detect categories > GET /-/ HTTP/1.1 > < HTTP/1.1 200 OK < Content-length: 0 < < Category: compute; label="Compute Resource"; scheme="http://purl.org/occi/kind#" < Category: network; label="Network Resource"; scheme="http://purl.org/occi/kind#" < Category: storage; label="Storage Resource"; scheme="http://purl.org/occi/kind#" < Category: us-east; label="US East Coast"; scheme="http://example.com/locations" < Category: us-west; label="US West Coast"; scheme="http://example.com/locations" < Category: demo; label="My Customer Demo"; scheme="http://example.com/~user/" < # retrieve category > GET /-/compute HTTP/1.1 > > HTTP/1.1 200 OK > Content-type: text/uri-list > > /node1 > /node2 > # retrieve resource > GET /node1 HTTP/1.1 > > HTTP/1.1 200 OK > Content-type: application/ovf > <...>
Create, Retrieve, Update and Delete (CRUD) operations map to the POST, GET, PUT and DELETE HTTP verbs respectively. HEAD and OPTIONS verbs may be used to retrieve metadata and valid operations without the entity body to improve performance. WebDAV definitions are used for MKCOL, MOVE and COPY.
Some providers may implement a subset of these operations, and those available to you for a given resource (if any) may depend on security policy. Be prepared to handle exceptions if you attempt to call operations that are not available to you.
"The POST method is used to request that the origin server accept the entity enclosed in the request as a new subordinate of the resource identified by the Request-URI in the Request-Line."RFC2616
POSTing a representation (e.g. OVF) to a collection (e.g. /compute) will result in a new resource being created (e.g. /compute/123) and returned in the Location: header. POST is also used with HTML form data to trigger verbs (e.g. restart)
"The GET method means retrieve whatever information (in the form of an entity) is identified by the Request-URI."RFC2616
GETting a resource (e.g. /compute/123) will return a representation of that resource in the most appropriate supported format specified by the client in the Accept header. Otherwise "406 Not Acceptable" will be returned.
"The PUT method requests that the enclosed entity be stored under the supplied Request-URI."RFC2616
PUTting a representation (e.g. OVF) to a URL (e.g. /compute/123) will result in the resource being created or updated. The URL is known or selected by the client, in contrast to POSTs where the URL is selected by the server.
"The DELETE method requests that the origin server delete the resource identified by the Request-URI."RFC2616
DELETE results in the deletion of the resource (and everything "under" it, as appropriate).
It is possible to instruct the server to create a resource based
on a default configuration (without requiring client support) by doing
an empty POST/PUT, specifying "
application/occi" (such that the web server
knows where to route the request) and specifying the appropriate
kind category (such that OCCI knows what to
Additionally the following HTTP methods are used:
"The COPY method creates a duplicate of the source resource identified by the Request-URI, in the destination resource identified by the URI in the Destination header."RFC4918
"The HEAD method is identical to GET except that the server MUST NOT return a message-body in the response."RFC2616
"MKCOL creates a new collection resource at the location specified by the Request-URI."RFC4918
"The MOVE operation on a non-collection resource is the logical equivalent of a copy (COPY), followed by consistency maintenance processing, followed by a delete of the source, where all three actions are performed in a single operation."RFC4918
"The OPTIONS method represents a request for information about the communication options available on the request/response chain identified by the Request-URI."RFC2616
Implementors may offer full WebDAV support in order to allow clients to enumerate the entire tree, interact with the resources via standard file managers (e.g. Windows Explorer, Mac OS X Finder), etc.
An action is some process that can be carried out on one or more resources, which may result in a state change and/or the creation of new resource(s).
Use common sense to decide what functionality should be exposed by way of actions and consult the list of existing actions and verbs before creating your own. For example it does not make sense to resize a storage resource by setting the "size" attribute (indeed there may not be space available or the filesystem may not support resizing and in any case the operation will take some time), nor to start a machine by changing the state from "stopped" to "running".
Each available action for a given
resource is indicated via a
link with
class extension
set to "
action" (such that clients
can identify actions, including those from third-parties, without
deriving meaning from the
rel URI).
Link: </us-east/webapp/vm01;start>; rel="http://purl.org/occi/action#start"; class="action"; title="Start"
Actions defined by this standard reside under the
http://purl.org/occi/action# namespace but anyone can define
a new action by allocating a URI they control.
Defining your own actions can lead to interoperability problems and should be a last resort reserved for unique functionality. A simple peer review process is available for extending the registries which should be used where possible.
An action is triggered via an HTTP POST and
depending on the action requested (e.g.
resize), parameters
may be provided using HTML forms (e.g.
application/x-www-form-urlencoded). In
the case of HTML-based renderings the actions can therefore be actual
HTML forms.
Some resources can be interacted with but not rendered due to the nature of the resource or prevailing security policies (for example, an operator may be able to backup a machine without knowing anything about it).
Synchronous actions may return
200 OK on successful completion or
201 Created with a
Location: header indicating a new
resource for audit purposes.
Assume that clients are paranoid and want audit trails for all but the most trivial of actions.
In the event that the action does not
complete immediately it should return
HTTP 202 Accepted and a
Location: header indicating a new
resource where status and other pertinent information can be
Don't keep clients waiting - if you're not sure to return immediately then give them a resource they can monitor. For example by responding with an 202 Accepted return code and include a location: header, as described.
The specific parameters required and allowable values for them
depend on the action and for advanced actions may
require sending of custom content types rather
State machines are maintained on the server side and possible transitions are advertised to the client by way of action links. The links offered to a given client may depend on the resource, its current state, security policy, etc.
Many state transitions will not be effected immediately so be prepared to handle asynchronous responses.
The model defines the objects and how they interrelate. An interface exposes "kinds" which have "attributes" and on which "actions" can be performed. The attributes are exposed as key-value pairs and applicable actions as links, following the REST hypertext constraint (whereby state transitions are defined in-band rather than via rules).
Each category of resources distinguished by some common
characteristic or quality is called a kind (e.g.
Kinds defined by this standard live in the
http://purl.org/occi/kind/ namespace but anyone can define a
new kind by using a URI they control as the term.
Defining your own kinds can lead to interoperability problems and should be a last resort reserved for unique functionality. A simple peer review process is available for extending the registries which should be used where possible.
Each resource must specify a kind by way of a
category within the scheme
The word type is not used in this context in order to avoid confusion with Internet media types.
An attribute is a specification that defines a property of an object. It is expressed in the form of key-value pairs. Attributes are divided into namespaces which are separated by the dot character (".").
This scalable approach was derived from the Mozilla Firefox
about:config page.
Attributes defined by this standard reside at the root but
anyone can define a new attribute by allocating a unique namespace
based on their reversed Internet domain (e.g.
Defining your own attributes can lead to interoperability problems and should be a last resort reserved for unique functionality. A simple peer review process is available for extending the registries which should be used where possible.
Table 1. Core Attributes
|Immutable, unique identifier for the resource
|Display name for the resource
Compute Resource
|Description of the resource
A virtual compute
Category information allows for flexible organisation of resources into one or more vocabularies (each of which is referred to as a scheme).
The category model was derived from Atom and consists of three attributes:
The term itself (e.g.
The vocabulary (e.g.
A human-friendly display name for the term (e.g.
Category schemes and/or terms defined by this standard reside
throughout the
http://purl.org/occi/ namespace but anyone can
define a new scheme by allocating a URI they control.
Categories provide a flexible way to manage resources by
taxonomy (categories) and/or folksonomy (tags), where both can be
shared between [groups of] users or globally. For example, users can
create schemes for resource locations (e.g.
Europe), operating systems (e.g.
Linux) and patch levels (e.g.
Example 2. Category examples
OCCI kinds are represented by a category:
Category: compute; label="Compute Resource"; scheme="http://purl.org/occi/kind#"
Implementors and users can also define their own vocabularies by defining schemes:
Category: cluster1; label="Cluster #1"; scheme="http://example.com/clusters#"
The category query interface can be accessed by constructing an URL with the desired categories added to the path. Categories can be negated by prefixing with "-" and schemes may be specified with braces.
Example 3. Example category query
Locate the category search root (which
should be
> HEAD / HTTP/1.1 > < HTTP/1.1 200 OK < Link: </-/>; rel="search"; title="Category Search"
Discover the available categories (which will all be returned in the same format as they appear in the HTTP headers):
> GET /-/ HTTP/1.1 > Accept: */* > < HTTP/1.1 200 OK < Content-type: application/occi < < Category: compute; label="Compute Resource"; scheme="http://purl.org/occi/kind#" < Category: network; label="Network Resource"; scheme="http://purl.org/occi/kind#" < Category: storage; label="Storage Resource"; scheme="http://purl.org/occi/kind#" < Category: us-east; label="US East Coast"; scheme="http://example.com/locations" < Category: us-west; label="US West Coast"; scheme="http://example.com/locations" < Category: demo; label="My Customer Demo"; scheme="http://example.com/~user/"
Query the category search interface for the desired category(s):
> GET /-/compute/us-west HTTP/1.1 > Accept: text/uri-list > < HTTP/1.1 200 OK < Content-type: text/uri-list < < /vm01 < /webapp/web01 < /webapp/web02 < /webapp/db01
Table 2. Core Category Schemes
|OCCI Kinds
|ISO Country Codes
|US States
|Operating Systems
|Regulation compliance
Other categories schemes can be added to the registry.
Where an operation could return multiple resources (e.g.
categories, searches) this is referred to as a
collection. Collections are returned as a list of
URLs in
text/uri-list format.RFC2483
Collections are passed by reference for simplicity rather than performance reasons, requiring O(n+1) requests. Including metadata (via a wrapper format like Atom or SOAP) and/or the data itself would provide O(1) performance, though this "pass by value" approach should only be considered where the representations are known to be small as encoding adds significant overhead.
Example 4. Example collection
# OCCI Example Collection /examples/custom-extension /examples/lamp-multi-vm /examples/lamp /examples/myservice
Collections may be divided into
pages, with each linking to the
"first", "last", "next" and
"previous" link relations. The
class extension, with the value of
paging, allows clients to group links together
in the user interface and the server to specify e.g. "Next 10", "Next
100", etc.
Link: <http://example.com/xyz;start=0>; rel="first"; title="First"; class="paging" Link: <http://example.com/xyz;start=400>; rel="previous"; title="Previous"; class="paging" Link: <http://example.com/xyz;start=500>; rel="self"; title="Self"; class="paging" Link: <http://example.com/xyz;start=600>; rel="next"; title="Next"; class="paging" Link: <http://example.com/xyz;start=900>; rel="last"; title="Last"; class="paging"
Web linking standards for HTTP [LINK] and HTML [HTML5] are used to indicate associations between resources. All formats must support in-band linking including:
Link relations (e.g.
Pointers to resources (e.g.
Internet media types (e.g.
Extensibility (e.g.
Link: </us-east/webapp/build.pdf>; rel="related"; title="Documentation"; type="application/pdf"
Link relations defined by this standard
reside under the
http://purl.org/occi/rel namespace but
anyone can define a new link relation by
allocating a URI they control.
Table 3. Core Link Relations
|"An IRI that refers to the furthest preceding resource in a series of resources." [LINK]
|"The referenced document provides further help information for the page as a whole." [HTML5]
|"The specified resource is an icon representing the page or site, and should be used by the user agent when representing the page in the user interface." [HTML5]
|"An IRI that refers to the furthest following resource in a series of resources." [LINK]
|"A URI that refers to the immediately following document in a series of documents." [LINK]
|"A URI that refers to the immediately preceding document in a series of documents." [LINK]
|"The referenced document provides an interface specifically for searching the document and its related resources." [HTML5, OpenSearch]
|"Identifies a resource equivalent to the containing element" [RFC4287]
The interface is fully extensible, both via a public peer review process (in order to update the specification itself, usually via registries) and via independent allocation of unique namespaces (in order to cater for vendor-specific enhancements).
Encryption is not required by the specification in order to cater for sites that do not or can not use it (e.g. due to export restrictions, performance reasons, etc.), however SSL/TLS should be used over public networks including the Internet.
"Sending of metadata and control information in the same
band, on the same channel, as used for data", for example, by
embedding it in HTML. [
"A category of things distinguished by some common
characteristic or quality", for example events, messages,
media. [

iPhone Game Review: Fruit Ninja
Fact or Fiction: Ninjas hate fruit? It's a mystery worthy of the MythBusters. While, we may doubt the validity of this statement, there's no denying that Fruit Ninja from HalfBrick Studios is one slashtacular game worthy of any iPhone gamer's attention. Fruit Ninja is a casual gamer's dream. No tedious instructions. No unnecessary gameplay. You just slash fruit. That's it.
There's not much that can be said about Fruit Ninja. Several fruit are tossed up in the air, including bananas, kiwi, strawberries, oranges and watermelons. Your job as a ninja in training is to slice the medley of fruits in half before they fall off screen. It's like being one of The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Each time you let a fruit fall off screen, without getting sliced, you will get a strike. Three strikes and you're out. It sounds like an easy job, but your ninja master will be tossing a few well-placed bombs into the mix. Set one bomb off and game over.
Like a ninja, you're not seen. You just see your slashes on the screen and the juicy aftermath. If you start drooling like Donkey (Eddie Murphy) in Shrek would over a parfait, it's because HalfBrick did an amazing job with sound design. Not only do you see the fruit juices splatter against the wall, but you hear it with surprising clarity. Each fruit has a deliciously unique sound when cut, with the least impressive being the banana. We actually decided to connect our iPhone's up to pro-speakers to really enjoy the clarity. The music bed is filled with classic marital-arts movie ambient sounds that will make any Kill Bill: Vol. 1 or Ninja Assassin fan proud.
Throughout the game you will be given Critical Hit bonuses for well-placed fruit slashes as well as be rewarded with quotes from Sensei. Even in defeat, Sensei will give you a fun Fruit Fact about Kiwi or some other fruit featured in the game.
Fruit Ninja is addictive – plain and simple. And, at $0.99, you should really be downloading this app right now. This is one of those games that everyone will be talking about and have no idea why they're talking about it. Fruit Ninja is a wake up call to iPhone game developers, reminding them that games don't need to be boggled down in extraneous details to be fun. Developers just need to focus on delivering a fun gaming experience. HalfBrick did what they set out to do: create an exceptional game that can provide endless hours of fun for anyone – gamer or not. Before I leave you, here is a fruit fact from Sensei, "Early explorers used Watermelons as canteens to carry their water supplies." We just hope they ate the Watermelons first.
