Dean Young: Skid
University of Pittsburgh Press
It's National Poetry Month, time again to strenuously ignore the fact that most people in America loathe poetry, or at least nurture an active indifference toward it. Why such bad juju? One complaint often leveled at contemporary poetry: It is self-consciously obtuse, fat with artifice and random flash, too removed from our reality-based lives. The poetry of Dean Young, especially that found in his fifth and latest book, Skid, makes a mountain-size target for this complaint.
Consider, though, that the smooth stories and finely crafted logic we expect from conventional prose may be little like our actual lives--that most minds are a mishmash of sharp turns and discarded options, sensations colliding with thoughts colliding with memories. In this light, understanding and appreciating a D.Y. poem may require no more special skill than hearing it as the mind in motion. Take these lines from a poem called "Troy, Indiana": "A monkey said the flute was full of fire./Fetal robots trolled the river./I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy." It's a freaky, funny passage, surreal snapshots spilling, without apparent connection, into Bob Marley's ghost. But there's a tonal clarity, a rhythmic sureness, and not a stitch of excess rhetoric. Inserted back into the poem's vocal flow, the lines become a direct and honest telling of one of the brain's wild and frequent little treks.
For Young, the trek is like the yellow brick road set in the American present. Along the way we find SUVs, Wile E. Coyote, candy bars, Republicans. Add to this mix the history of ideas (from Cotton Mather to Karl Marx) and art (from Charlotte Brontë to Thelonious Monk), and we still haven't come close to describing the expansive and inclusive landscape of the poet's imagination.
This isn't just pomo fun and games, though. Along this busy and bizarre yellow brick road, the mind of the D.Y. poem searches, often with sincere intentions and frightening intimacy, for some kind of shape, order, beauty, revelation--maybe even a way home. But what the poems in Skid seem to have learned from Dorothy is that Oz matters less than how you get there; Oz is the getting there, the slipperiness of language and the brain's wayward ways. As the book's final lines put it, in a poem slyly titled "How I Get My Ideas":
You cannot control your laughter.
You cannot control your love.
You know not to hit the brakes on ice
but do anyway. You bend the nail
but keep hammering because
hammering makes the world.
The imperfections and skids and losses of control--these make the fabric of our real days, D.Y. seems to say. And that's something to celebrate.

When was the last time you used snail mail?
Well – if you've never sent out a snail mail since the internet is around – this news would only convince you that you're on the right path. Someone in Poland actually calculated and proved that snail mail is slower than snail.
WARSAW (Reuters) – It's official. Postal delivery is as slow as snails, at least in Poland.
An IT worker, after receiving a letter on January 3 that was sent on December 20 as priority mail, calculated that a snail would have made it even faster to his home than the letter.
Daily Gazeta Wyborcza said Michal Szybalski calculated that it took 294 hours for the letter to arrive at his home. He also said the distance between his home and the sender was 11.1 kilometers.
Given the distance and the time, the speed of the letter was 0.03775 kilometers per hour. Szybalski calculated that a garden snail travels at around 0.048 kilometers per hour.
I think the snail in Malaysia is faster too.
Registered letter takes 55 days for interstate delivery
MALACCA: A registered letter from Batu Gajah in Perak took 55 days to be delivered to Ayer Keroh here.
Factory owner B.H. Ong said his client had sent the letter on Nov 28 but he only received a notification card from the post office here on Tuesday to collect it.
?I am puzzled as my factory is only 100 metres away from the Ayer Keroh post office,? he told The Star.
Ong said he had gone to the post office in Ayer Keroh as well as the main post office in Bukit Baru to enquire about the letter several times but they could not trace it.
?The letter contained a payment cheque and I had to request my client to cancel it and issue a fresh one due to the long delay,? he added.
When contacted, an official from the state post office here said the registered letter was received on Nov 29 and was sent to the Ayer Keroh office to be delivered to Ong.
?But it was not sent and the letter was only returned to Bukit Baru recently,? he said, adding that they were at fault for not delivering the letter.

DCGS-A Partners with Indstry to Talk Innovation, Future of Army Int
September 9, 2013
By Jess Smith

ABERDEEN PROVING GROUND, MD - The Distributed Common Ground System -- Army (DCGS-A) support to the Army Intelligence Corps relies on strong industry partnerships, their ingenuity and dedication to Soldiers.
Representatives from small and large businesses from across the country gathered together at Aberdeen Proving Ground on Aug. 29, to align efforts with the DCGS-A team to discuss technology integration opportunities.
The DCGS-A Innovation Showcase started with an overview of the future of Army Intelligence, DCGS-A program's schedule, technology focus areas and discussion of how industry can become an active member of the DCGS-A industry partner team. Discussion topics also included Army Intelligence 2020, Persistent Surveillance and the Intelligence Enterprise, and overviews of the Information and Intelligence Directorate (I2WD) and Intelligence and Security Command (INSCOM) laboratory efforts.
"DCGS-A is the Army Intelligence Analysts' weapon system, much like the tank is to a Tank Soldier. It provides them with the linkage from space to mud -- send, receive, query data, and the collaboration ability to do their job," Lt. Gen. Mary Legere, Deputy Chief of Staff, G-2 explained. "We have responsibilities not only to the Army, DCGS-A is the intelligence foundation for Combatant Commanders who rely on our data and enterprise. Without DCGS-A, we can't provide the full battlefield picture to operational commanders to make critical decisions. Our industry team makes that intelligence fusion possible."
More than 500 people attended the Innovation Showcase which also featured approximately 50 industry displays during the afternoon technology exhibition. This venue offered industry an opportunity to lay out new and emerging technology that may be the right fit to align with the DCGS-A technology.
"Our industry partners have contributed directly to our ability to provide the best intelligence to our Soldiers. This Innovation Showcase gives us an opportunity to see firsthand some of the new technology, capabilities and solutions industry has to offer. We get a chance to interact with industry teams who are already contributing to our mission and with those who bring some new 'out of the box' technology that could make our program even stronger," Col. Charles Wells, Project Manager DCGS-A said.
The conversations and networking between industry and the DCGS-A government team is crucial to the agile product development model aligning within the acquisition strategy. The government team has already partnered with many commercial companies from Silicon Valley, small and large businesses across the country. The DCGS-A team is continually looking for new, innovative technology capabilities to continue enhancing the DCGS-A program.
Some specific technology focus areas discussed included Ease of Use, Streamlined Workflow Based on Analytical Processes, Training (Computer-Based, Embedded), Actionable Intelligence to the Edge and Knowledge Management.
"We are always searching for innovative technology to support our soldiers. We meet with users, gather their insight, understand their critical requirements and collect feedback about the program then we tailor our requirements and focus to meet their needs," Col. Edward F. Riehle, Director for TRADOC Capability Manager -- Sensor Processing said.
Industry involvement in the Innovation Showcase highlighted opportunities where companies with new, innovative ideas submitted a white paper; participated in previous Innovation Showcase events and then started working in the lab to test out their ability to support the mission.

A bookie lives and dies by the odds, and it looks like Richard "Treebark" Poeton has beaten them. An undercover investigator from the state Gambling Commission spent 11 months and at least $125,000 making bets with Poeton, whose Seattle bookmaking operation is estimated to have churned more than $1 million in wagers. But by pleading guilty to professional gambling charges last week, Treebark is set to walk away with a mere $2,500 fine and no jail time.
Among them were the $116,000 in sports wagers made by Gambling Commission special agent Diane Milner, along with $8,340 she paid in vigorish - the ten percent charged by a bookie on losing bets. Milner says she made additional wagers as well, but did not list the amounts in her affidavit of probable cause.
Though the book was closed down in 2008, Poeton and co-defendant David Warren Mills were not charged until last Fall. Milner indicates in a statement the commission was attempting to burrow further into the bookie business and that at one point she set herself up as a bookmaker of sorts.
With Poeton's help and advice, she opened "a store" that had had five "simulated" bettors, a ruse that helped expand the investigation and identify other bookmakers for possible future prosecution.
Poeton came to her attention through another bookie, whom the agent saw working a phone and scribbling down names and numbers one day at Parkers Casino in Shoreline.
Visiting Parkers and the Drift On Inn mini-casino over a two-year period, she gained the bookie's trust, made her first bet with him in 2007, and ended up a winner. To settle the debt, he agreed to introduce her to a another bookie, who agreed to match her up with a big-time bookie, Poeton, for a $100 fee.
Each month thereafter she bet more than $5,000 with Poeton, sometimes wagering as much as $16,000, $17,000 and $23,000. In court papers, Milner did not disclose how much she won or lost while making the case against Poeton and Mills, who has pleaded not guilty and is awaiting trial.
As part of Poeton's no-jail, $2,500-fine plea deal, prosecutors also dropped a second gambling charge. But Poeton will have to pay some small court fees.

The Sportsmen of Changi
Kevin Blackburn
Japanese Second World War Prisoner Of War camps conjure up a notorious picture of deprivation and brutality. The idea that sport, of all things, flourished in such hellish conditions is hard to envisage – but the truth is, it did. Captives played Aussie Rules football and rugby at the infamous Changi POW camp, and tennis on the Burmese side of the Burma–Thailand Railway. They played soccer, cricket, baseball or basketball, and sometimes their prison guards even joined in for a game.
There were many elite sportsmen in these ranks intent on reviving their sporting careers after returning home at war's end, and many of them succeeded.The Sportsmen of Changi tells the story everyone forgot – of how sport became a lifeline for POWs after the fall of Singapore, when 50,000 Australian and British soldiers became prisoners of the Japanese. Inspiring and absorbing, it shows that in unimaginable conditions people will do all they can to hold onto what makes them human.

LYNN HAVEN - A local business man wants to reopen his deer processing business in Lynn Haven.
But Lynn Haven city officials may not let him.
The business used to be located behind Sandy's Feed and Seed on Highway 77.
The owner relocated as few years ago,. But now wants to move back to that spot. Lynn Haven city officials say they don't want a "slaughterhouse" within it's city limits anymore.
During today's workshop meeting commissioners came up with a plan of action for tomorrow's meeting. They've drafted an emergency ordinance that will outlaw wild game slaughterhouses.
The ordinance will have to carry a majority vote. If adopted it will allow the city to further research the topic and make a more permanent decision by April 22nd.

Respond to Review of Bengal Sweets Centre and The Pantry Pure Veg Restaurant

Review: I enjoyed every second of being here. A heaven for one who likes Indian sweets and snack mixes... every kind imaginable and totally irresisitible. Very clean dining area. The coconut rice tastes yummy and comes with a spicy samar (watery stew). Set meal is a good deal because you get rice, chapati, 3 small dishes of assorted daal and veggies plus a sweets dessert. The samosa was excellent - the best I've had in a long time.

The SC-88 Sound Canvas is a professional quality General MIDI sound
module designed for an extensive range of music applications.
The SC-88's increased channels, voices, sounds, signal processing and
improved sound quality make it the perfect choice for demanding
Power that transcends conventional sound modules.
The SC-88 is in a class by itself. With 32-part multitimbral
capability and 64-note polyphony, t are two independant MIDI
inputs for utilizing the SC-88's awesome multitimbral capability.
To take advantage of all 32 channels, you can use the Roland MC-50MkII
Microcomposer, or a PC-based sequencing system equipped with Roland's
Super-MPU MIDI Interface to create intricate music with just a single
SC-88. Until now, you could only get this much performance using
multiple sound modules, but one SC-88 can function as two complete
Roland SC-55MkII sound modules.
Sound - incredible quality matched by quantity.
The SC-88 utilizes 18-bit D/A conversion for breathtaking sound
quality with true CD S/N ratio and wide dynamic range. All appropriate
instruments have been meticulously multisampled to provide a more
expressive and natural sound over the entire pitch range.
The SC-88's 8 Mbyte wave memory is equivalent to 16 Mbytes in a 16-bit
linear format, allowing the SC-88 to offer an immense number of sounds
that include General MIDI System Level 1 and the Roland GS Format
sounds. You can create full-scale orchestration ensembles by selecting
from 654 different instruments.
These built-in sounds include 300 outstanding sounds carefully
selected from the highly rated Roland JV-80/880 synthesizers and
SR-JV80 Series expansion boards as well as S-Series Sampler CD-ROM
sounds. Particularly noteworthy are the numerous acoustic instrument
types, including piano, guitar, strings and brass. Twenty-two drum
sets and two SFX sets are also included. T is also a separate
SC-55 Map button on the front panel if SC-55MkII sounds are desired.
For each of the SC-88's 32 Parts, you can select any sound desired -
from realistic acoustic instruments to the latest and various synth
textures - for use in virtually any kind of musical genre.
Powerful onboard digital effects.
The SC-88 incorporates professional signal processing capabilities
with digital reverb, digital chorus, digital delay and 2-band EQ. Each
Part can store its own effects send leveland on/off status as well as
EQ on/off settings.
The high-quality and versatility of these effects are perfect for
slight processing or radical sound creation.
Sound editing that delivers professional results.
Editing capabilities on the SC-88 are comparable to those found on
advanced synthesizers, yet are even more convenient to use. The front
panel edit button allows quick access to vibrato, filter and envelope
parameter values for easily altering instrument sounds.

The Third HalfTreto poluvreme
Macedonia, 2012, 113 Minute Running Time
North American Premiere
Topics: Family Friendly, History, Jewish Interest, Sports
Program: Awards Buzz : Best Foreign Language FilmLanguage: Macedonian English Sub-Titles
Inspired by real events, The Third Half is a moving story of love and loyalty during wartime explored through the prism of a country's passion for soccer. In Macedonia, in 1941, Kosta, a cocky soccer player falls in love with Rebecca, a beautiful Jewish woman from a wealthy family. When they decide to marry, her father disowns her.
As war rages on their borders, most Macedonians remain cocooned in a world of patriotic pleasures. Everyone longs for Kosta's team, Macedonia FC, to catch a winning streak. To facilitate their chances, their manager hires the legendary German-Jewish striker-turned-coach Rudolph Spitz.
But when the Nazis occupy Macedonia and start deporting Jews, Kosta and his teammates must summon the courage to stand up for what's right. Director Mitrevski notes, "I was seeking witnesses of various historic periods for a TV series when someone mentioned Mrs Neta Koen. I found myself in her apartment listening to her stories: She was one of the few Holocaust survivors in Macedonia, a country in which 98% of the Jewish population was brutally wiped out during the WWII." Her story inspired this movie.
Director Darko Mitrevski expected to attend the January 6 and January 7 screenings

SALEM, Ore. — With handguns strapped to their thighs and rifles on their backs, opponents of gun control converged on the state Capitol to express their displeasure with proposals made by President Barack Obama in the wake of the massacre at a Connecticut elementary school.
The rally was part of a nationwide series of pro-firearms events Saturday dubbed as "Guns Across America," and included a reading of the Second Amendment.
Besides firearms, the protesters carried American flags and signs that read "Impeach Obama" and "Freedom."
Protester Bud Jones told The Oregonian that politicians should focus on mental health education rather than gun control. He fears Obama's proposals are a step toward greater restrictions.
There was no official crowd estimate. Rally organizer Tom Tharp said he hoped the crowd topped 3,000.

I've been doing daycare work for two years, excluding my experience as a babysitter in my "younger" days. I currently take care of a 18-month-old baby girl, and I've been her caretaker ever since she was 2 months old. I watch her 4 days per week in my home, on full-day schedules. I am also a mother to three children; Stepson (7 yrs.), stepdaughter (4 yrs.) and my bio-son (2. 5 years). I consider my stepchildren to be good references as to my care taking abilities. I have been their primary caretaker for over one year now, and I've learned so much in the process. My childrens' different developmental stages have allowed me to understand and adapt to a variety of behavioral milestones, as well as acquire a unique sense of patience with the inevitable chaos that comes along with children. =) As a babysitter/daycare provider, I look to provide parents with a safe, loving and healthy place for their little ones.

That was Joe's tongue-in-cheek response when asked how he might have to shift his approach in order to run against McGinn rather than the mayor.
Gimmicky campaign tchotchkes were never so useful as tonight at Mallahan's election party at Fado, where the "I'm a Fan of Mallahan" paper fans, featuring Joe with sleeves rolled up before the Seattle skyline, were the only thing creating a breeze inside the sweltering pub.The T-Mobile executive argued that his "track record of effective management" would win out over McGinn, should he end up facing the greenie tunnel-hater in the general election. That, and the fact that McGinn has based his candidacy primarily on a single issue, whereas Mallahan claims to have run a "very broad" (some would say "very vague") campaign.
His communications specialist Charla Neuman also claimed Joe was "the more tested candidate" by virtue of having survived the late advertising attacks from Nickels.
Former city council member Peter Steinbrueck, in attendance at the Mallahan gathering, could hardly contain his glee at the apparent ouster of Mayor Nickels. "He never had great popularity," he said. "[Nickels] was the default candidate after [Paul] Schell lost the primary."
Steinbrueck was enthusiastic about Mallahan, though he stopped short of endorsing him, especially since Nickels may yet survive the primary. But he said, "Mallahan in some ways typifies Seattle." He added: "People are craving optimism, a sense of humor, and self-deprecation, things we've missed with the current administration."

What Is the Best Raised Garden Bed Design for You?
by, 08-17-2012 at 07:36 AM (14894 Views)
For thousands of years, men and women have used raised garden beds, also called elevated gardens or box gardens, to beautify their home environment as well as to provide food and nutrition. As you plan your garden bed there are some considerations that will be helpful in selecting the best design for your situation. In determining the design that is best suited for your family the following considerations will be beneficial to your endeavor.
1. How much space do you have available for constructing the elevated garden box?
This is a very important consideration because it will determine the types of material used to construct the box as well as the type of soil used in growing plants. If you have a small yard you should take care in selecting the location of the garden bed. The proper location of your garden can enhance the beauty of your home; add color and vibrancy to your landscape.
2. Does the space receive adequate sunlight, at least five hours a day?
Plants thrive when they receive adequate sunlight. Through a process called photosynthesis plants convert sunlight to energy. This coupled with the nutrients derived from the soil are key to a successful raised garden bed. If your garden is in a shaded area you still can grow beautiful healthy plants. To achieve this you should select plants that thrive in low light conditions.
3. What materials are available and at what cost?
Materials for building an elevated garden can be purchased at building supply stores hardware stores and other outlets. You may also find materials that are useful right in your own backyard. Typically for growing fruits and vegetables I like to use lumber and that is at least 8 inches deep. The reason for this is your soil will settle naturally about an inch or more. This will also ensure strong root growth and sturdier plants. If the primary purpose for your garden is to grow flowers I would suggest using landscape stones because of the ease of use and versatility. Landscape stones are available in different shapes, sizes and colors; they are easily adaptable to different shaped raised garden beds. Another benefit of landscape stones is they are very durable and you have the option to re-create your design from year to year.
4. Is the purpose of the elevated garden box for aesthetics or is the primary purpose for growing fruits and vegetables?
If the purpose of your garden box is to beautify your landscape then you may consider using materials that augment your current design. If growing vegetables you may consider the ease of access because many vegetables are seasonable and after yielding their crop can be replaced with plants that can extend the growing season.
5. Do you have adequate soil available or will you have to purchase soil and fertilizer?
When designing your raised garden bed it is helpful to determine the composition of your soil. Some plants produce well and acidic soil while others thrive in soil that is alkaline. The addition of compost to your soil adds nutrients and promotes proper drainage. You may also purchase soil from a local nursery or home improvement center.

So I have two different things going on. SD of my 2 year old started coming around Jan of 08. Didn't really start seeing ds until Aug of 08. Well, my 2 year old now calls him daddy and any man he sees with facial hair he calls daddy. SD only comes around about 3 hours per month having gone 3 months without seeing him before. I haven't had to deal with this situation yet as my ex husband left when my youngest at that time was 3 and he is still involved. I told SD last night when he bailed on coming over today what my 2 year old has been doing. How would you approach it with SD that he needs to do more for his son? I know I can't make him be a good parent but he thinks he can only see DS on his days off that he can't spend any time at all with him after work and he feels he is doing the best that he can. I don't ever leave him alone with ds becuase I don't trust him to make the right decisions by himself. How hard is it for him to spend 2 hours a week with his son. It isn't like I'm sending him for days on end alone. He's never even been alone with him. I'm so frustrated with him.
Next, DD's SD has resurfaced for the time being. He wants to be semi involved from what I understand. What kind of ground rules do I set? Funny that when DS was born I had to go back in the hospital when he was 5 weeks old and DD's SD is the one who took care of my DS for that week. I want to have a sit down discussion with him but don't know where to start. What do I say to him? What should I ask of him? How much should I ask of him? Obviously it will all depend on what he wants and what he will agree to but I wanted to have some ideas of where to start. I'm trying not to get my hopes up as the chances of him disappearing again are great. But, if we can be civil with each other and come up with some sort of parenting plan or agreement and keep it out of court it will be that much better for everybody involved. I would get anything we discuss in writing so that it would be a binding contract if we ever did end up needing to go to court. I'm just not ready at this point in time to deal with more court. I've already been there enough in these last few years with my divorce and all.
Ugh my ativan isn't working all that great and neither is my sleeping pill. I finally took the baby's shoes off as they were making her keep waking up (they are medical otherwise I wouldn't put them on her). She is supposed to wear them 23 hours a day. Basically supposed to just take them off to bathe and get dressed. But, whoever designed them must've not had kids because they make her a crabby bitch. I would too is my feet were being twisted and turned in ways they don't usually go. I just hope I get some sleep tonight.

sqlalchemy_default / README.dialects.rst
Developing new Dialects
When studying this file, it's probably a good idea to also familiarize with the README.unittests.rst file, which discusses SQLAlchemy's usage and extension of the Nose test runner.
While SQLAlchemy includes many dialects within the core distribution, the trend for new dialects should be that they are published as external projects. SQLAlchemy has since version 0.5 featured a "plugin" system which allows external dialects to be integrated into SQLAlchemy using standard setuptools entry points. As of version 0.8, this system has been enhanced, so that a dialect can also be "plugged in" at runtime.
On the testing side, SQLAlchemy as of 0.8 also includes a "dialect compliance suite" that is usable by third party libraries. There is no longer a strong need for a new dialect to run through SQLAlchemy's full testing suite, as a large portion of these tests do not have dialect-sensitive functionality. The "dialect compliance suite" should be viewed as the primary target for new dialects, and as it continues to grow and mature it should become a more thorough and efficient system of testing new dialects.
Dialect Layout
The file structure of a dialect is typically similar to the following:
sqlalchemy-<dialect>/ setup.py setup.cfg run_tests.py sqlalchemy_<dialect>/ __init__.py base.py <dbapi>.py test/ __init__.py requirements.py test_suite.py test_<dialect_specific_test>.py ...
An example of this structure can be seen in the Access dialect at https://bitbucket.org/zzzeek/sqlalchemy-access/.
Key aspects of this file layout include:
setup.py - should specify setuptools entrypoints, allowing the dialect to be usable from create_engine(), e.g.:
entry_points={ 'sqlalchemy.dialects': [ 'access = sqlalchemy_access.pyodbc:AccessDialect_pyodbc', 'access.pyodbc = sqlalchemy_access.pyodbc:AccessDialect_pyodbc', ] }
Above, the two entrypoints access and access.pyodbc allow URLs to be used such as:
create_engine("access://user:pw@dsn") create_engine("access+pyodbc://user:pw@dsn")
setup.cfg - this file contains the traditional contents such as [egg_info] and [nosetests] directives, but also contains new directives that are used by SQLAlchemy's testing framework. E.g. for Access:
[egg_info] tag_build = dev [nosetests] with-sqla_testing = true where = test cover-package = sqlalchemy-access with-coverage = 1 cover-erase = 1 [sqla_testing] requirement_cls=test.requirements:Requirements profile_file=.profiles.txt [db] default=access+pyodbc://admin@access_test sqlite=sqlite:///:memory:
Above, the [sqla_testing] section contains configuration used by SQLAlchemy's test plugin.The [nosetests] section includes the directive with-sql_testing = true, which indicates to Nose that the SQLAlchemy nose plugin should be used.
run_tests.py - The plugin is provided with SQLAlchemy, however is not plugged into Nose automatically; instead, a run_tests.py script should be composed as a front end to Nose, such that SQLAlchemy's plugin will be correctly installed.
run_tests.py has two parts. One optional, but probably helpful, step is that it installs your third party dialect into SQLAlchemy without using the setuptools entrypoint system; this allows your dialect to be present without any explicit setup.py step needed. The other step is to import SQLAlchemy's nose runner and invoke it. An example run_tests.py file looks like the following:
from sqlalchemy.dialects import registry registry.register("access", "sqlalchemy_access.pyodbc", "AccessDialect_pyodbc") registry.register("access.pyodbc", "sqlalchemy_access.pyodbc", "AccessDialect_pyodbc") from sqlalchemy.testing import runner runner.main()
Where above, the registry module, introduced in SQLAlchemy 0.8, provides an in-Python means of installing the dialect entrypoints without the use of setuptools, using the registry.register() function in a way that is similar to the entry_points directive we placed in our setup.py. The call to runner.main() then runs the Nose front end, which installs SQLAlchemy's testing plugins. Invoking our custom runner looks like the following:
$ python run_tests.py -v
requirements.py - The requirements.py file is where directives regarding database and dialect capabilities are set up. SQLAlchemy's tests are often annotated with decorators that mark tests as "skip" or "fail" for particular backends. Over time, this system has been refined such that specific database and DBAPI names are mentioned less and less, in favor of @requires directives which state a particular capability. The requirement directive is linked to target dialects using a Requirements subclass. The custom Requirements subclass is specified in the requirements.py file and is made available to SQLAlchemy's test runner using the requirement_cls directive inside the [sqla_testing] section.
For a third-party dialect, the custom Requirements class can usually specify a simple yes/no answer for a particular system. For example, a requirements file that specifies a database that supports the RETURNING construct but does not support reflection of tables might look like this:
# test/requirements.py from sqlalchemy.testing.requirements import SuiteRequirements from sqlalchemy.testing import exclusions class Requirements(SuiteRequirements): @property def table_reflection(self): return exclusions.closed() @property def returning(self): return exclusions.open()
The SuiteRequirements class in sqlalchemy.testing.requirements contains a large number of requirements rules, which attempt to have reasonable defaults. The tests will report on those requirements found as they are run.
test_suite.py - Finally, the test_suite.py module represents a Nose test suite, which pulls in the actual SQLAlchemy test suite. To pull in the suite as a whole, it can be imported in one step:
# test/test_suite.py from sqlalchemy.testing.suite import *
That's all that's needed - the sqlalchemy.testing.suite package contains an ever expanding series of tests, most of which should be annotated with specific requirement decorators so that they can be fully controlled. To specifically modify some of the tests, they can be imported by name and subclassed:
from sqlalchemy.testing.suite import * from sqlalchemy.testing.suite import ComponentReflectionTest as _ComponentReflectionTest class ComponentReflectionTest(_ComponentReflectionTest): @classmethod def define_views(cls, metadata, schema): # bypass the "define_views" section of the # fixture return
Going Forward
The third-party dialect can be distributed like any other Python module on Pypi. Links to prominent dialects can be featured within SQLAlchemy's own documentation; contact the developers (see AUTHORS) for help with this.
While SQLAlchemy includes many dialects built in, it remains to be seen if the project as a whole might move towards "plugin" model for all dialects, including all those currently built in. Now that SQLAlchemy's dialect API is mature and the test suite is not far behind, it may be that a better maintenance experience can be delivered by having all dialects separately maintained and released.
As new versions of SQLAlchemy are released, the test suite and requirements file will receive new tests and changes. The dialect maintainer would normally keep track of these changes and make adjustments as needed.
Continuous Integration
The most ideal scenario for ongoing dialect testing is continuous integration, that is, an automated test runner that runs in response to changes not just in the dialect itself but to new pushes to SQLAlchemy as well.
The SQLAlchemy project features a Jenkins installation that runs tests on Amazon EC2 instances. It is possible for third-party dialect developers to provide the SQLAlchemy project either with AMIs or EC2 instance keys which feature test environments appropriate to the dialect - SQLAlchemy's own Jenkins suite can invoke tests on these environments. Contact the developers for further info.

- logcheck: mails anomalies in the system logfiles to the administrator
Logcheck helps spot problems and security violations in your logfiles
automatically and will send the results to you in e-mail.
Logcheck was part of the Abacus Project of security tools, but this
version has been rewritten.
- logcheck-database: database of system log rules for the use of log checkers
This database is part of the Logcheck package, but might be used by others.
It brings a database of regular expressions for matching system log entries
after various criteria.
- logtail: Print log file lines that have not been read (deprecated)
This program will read in a standard text file and create an
offset marker when it reads the end. The offset marker is read
the next time logtail is run and the text file pointer is moved
to the offset location. This allows logtail to read in the next
lines of data following the marker. This is good for marking log
files for automatic log file checkers to monitor system events.
The package also provides logtail2, which better deals with rotated log
files: If logtail2 finds that the inode of the file was changed, it assumes
that the log has been rotated, and tries to find the file it was rotated to
using heuristic plugins. If it finds the file, it will print the remainder of
the file starting at the offset saved to the offset file. If a file with the
correct inode was not found, logtail2 will only print the new file in its
entirety before writing a new offset file.

Music To Sleep to
The ambient beauty of Brian Eno.
Lux is spare in its textures, restrained in its arrangement. Piano notes hang in the air with a long sustain, occasionally accentuated by subtle strings. (The sparse, cryptic liner notes also make reference to a Moog guitar.) Take Lux out of the grandiose backdrop of an Italian palace and into humdrum everyday reality, and it has a dewy emotionalism—evocative of another time and place without drawing much attention to itself. It is good music to play in the background while working on something else—"music for thinking," as Eno would put it, or music that is "as ignorable as it is interesting," as he described Music for Airports in 1978.
I tested Lux in a variety of situations; it sounded almost as good piped through tinny laptop speakers as it did on deluxe 180-gram vinyl on a "proper setup." It worked well as nighttime music and as gentle music for the raw, early light of morning. I tried Lux on a normally hyperactive cat that stood in quiet attention before reclining luxuriously in relaxation on a mat in the kitchen. I played Lux simultaneously with Neroli, an ambient album Eno released in 1993, and the two complemented each other. Neroli fills in Lux's airy spaciousness, adding to it without overpowering it.
Neroli, which Eno billed as "Music for Thinking: Part IV," is Lux's closest sonic relative. Neroli also gained some traction as soothing music for pregnant women in wards, if some accounts are to be believed. But Neroli is darker than Lux; it contains more tension. Lux builds into quietly ecstatic peaks before slowly dissolving; any abrasiveness fades almost as quickly as it appears.
Lux was originally designed to be less bright than it turned out to be. "What I had composed—in my studio in London, wrapped up in England's grey climate—was introspective and somewhat dark," Eno writes in the materials supplied with the installation. "There was not doubt in my mind that it was an 'interior' track. What is most striking about the Great Gallery—and you realize as much only when you step into it—is that it is soaked in light and space: nothing further from an 'interior' feeling." Eno then worked on the piece in the gallery itself, altering it to fit the space.
Lux also shares similarities with the smeared, hazy transcendence of Thursday Afternoon, a 1985 Eno ambient album that was originally composed as the soundtrack for a transfixing series of "video paintings" in 1984. Another parallel is the music of Eno's erstwhile collaborator and friend Harold Budd, whose delicate, spare piano figures, with ample helpings of the sustain pedal, seem at once deliciously simple and deeply emotional—and almost cosmically transporting.
Lux is Eno's first solo album in several years and his most entrancing recent work. While releasing an album of ambient music in 2012 is considerably less groundbreaking than it was in the 1970s, Lux is still unmistakably, quintessentially Eno. And sometimes being beautiful is reason enough.

I was reading about the stages of labor on a few websites. They said that transition (dilating from 7 to 10 cm, feeling nauseated, shaky, intense...) lasted 30 minutes to 2 hours on average.
My transition with DS lasted FOUR! Seriously, puking at home, shaking and having to moan through ctx every two minutes on the way into the hospital (I was a 7 when I got there).
So enough whining from me; how long did transition last for you? How was it??

The Era of the Sedition Act and First-Amendment Thought
Although leaders of the Washington administration did not believe that the First Amendment prevented them from prosecuting political speech, only Alexander Hamilton was prepared to brave the political storms that national libel prosecutions would produce. But as partisan passions intensified, prominent Federalists urged an end to the cautious approach of the Washington administration.
Alexander Hamilton again led the way, but other Federalists were no longer far behind. Hamilton's celebrated "Reynolds Pamphlet" of 1797, in which the former treasury secretary denied charges of public wrongdoing but admitted an extramarital affair with one Mrs. Maria Reynolds, began with a scathing attack upon the Jeffersonian press. "The spirit of jacobinism," Hamilton claimed, menaced the republic. "A principal engine, by which this spirit endeavors to accomplish its purposes" was a carefully calculated assault on the reputations of prominent public leaders. The "most direct falsehoods" were invented; lies that had been "often detected and refuted" were "still revived and repeated, in the hope that the refutation may have been forgotten or that the frequency and boldness of accusation" would fool the public; the "most profligate men" were bribed with money and political favors "to become informers and accusors"; and when all these tactics failed, the agents of Jacobinism continued "in corroding whispers to wear away the reputations which they could not directly subvert." These "conspirators against honest fame," against the well-deserved reputations of high public officials, considered nothing sacred. "Even the peace of an unoffending and amiable wife is a welcome repast to their insatiate fury. . . . Even the great and multiplied services, the tried and rarely equalled virtues of a WASHINGTON;" could not escape this "conspiracy of vice against virtue. . . ."1
Two years later, in 1799, Hamilton successfully urged the attorney general of New York, Josiah Ogden Hoffman, to prosecute Greenleaf's New Daily Advertiser for repeating rumors that Hamilton had tried to suppress William Duane's Aurora. Expanding upon the analysis of the "Reynolds Pamphlet,"

Meeting Explores Pricing of Pharmaceutical Products
For decades, patients, doctors, ethicists, and other observers have debated the economics of the pharmaceutical industry. What is the best way to get medications to the people who need them, regardless of their ability to pay for these drugs? Can prices can be lowered without jeopardizing basic research for new drugs? Are drug company pricing practices monopolistic? What are the legal and ethical obligations related to drugs developed--partially or fully--with public funds?
The Population Council convened a day-long meeting of an eminent group of academics, scientists, representatives from the nonprofit sector, the pharmaceutical industry; foundations, and government donor agencies, as well as practicing lawyers and doctors--all of whom have a connection with pharmaceutical products. The purpose of the Day of Dialogue was to explore ways of getting medicinal products--especially those invented and developed partially or fully using public funding--into the hands of the poor people of the world, wherever they live.
F.M. Scherer--Emeritus Harvard University John F. Kennedy School of Government professor and current lecturer at Princeton's Woodrow Wilson School--spoke about the economics of pharmaceutical research and development and product pricing. Scherer's analysis of profits from pharmaceutical sales and investments in research and development (R&D) showed that when profits increase, so does R&D. This suggests that pharmaceutical companies engage in what economists call "virtuous rent-seeking." However, said Scherer, there is still cause for concern. Most R&D is for diseases prevalent in industrialized countries, not those in developing countries. And, while profits themselves drive R&D, so does the threat that a company will lose profits (via patent expiration, for example).
Arthur Caplan--chair of the University of Pennsylvania's department of medical ethics--explored the question "Can ethics save pharma?" Caplan acknowledged that U.S. government funding is limited and will remain so for a while. He stated that those who seek innovation in drag availability and pricing will need to look to the pharmaceutical companies. Potential partners of pharmaceutical companies, however, must recognize and find ways to manage the ethical problems of the industry. Moreover, the pharmaceutical industry should rededicate itself to its scientific foundations and commit itself to heeding ethical guidance on how it carries out research, marketing, and sales.
Bayh--Dole Act
One of the key issues that arise in discussions of pharmaceutical pricing is the Bayh--Dole Act, a 1980 law that governs the status of intellectual property resulting from research funded fully or partially by the U.S. government. The law allows universities, businesses, and nonprofit organizations to retain rights to inventions they make or develop with federal funding. In exchange, these organizations are required, among other things, to promote and attempt to commercialize such inventions. …

ZImbabwe: Corruption
Transparency International's Global Corruption Report 2009 places Zimbabwe, jointly, as being the 11th most corrupt of nations in its survey of 180 countries for 2008. The nation climbs to second place, as most corrupt, in the Southern African Development Community (SADC) region, slipping in just after the apparently mucky Democratic Republic of Congo and only just before grubby Angola. Not surprisingly, perhaps, only two countries in SADC reach the top quartile of the180 ranked. Botswana prides itself at the top of the SADC list, ranked at 36.One does not have to search too far to find reports and suggestions of massive and endemic corruption in Zimbabwe, or the denials by those who have seemingly looted and pillaged either. Even Tacitus saw the correlation between corruption and a profusion of laws, and Zimbabwe has had its fair share of those ever controlling statutes in the last decade. Some might well believe that the ruling and profiting elite evidently do not give a 'hoot'. It seems strange, therefore, that the current Parliament of Zimbabwe is set to establish a Zimbabwe Anti-Corruption Commission (ZACC), provided by Constitutional Amendment No. 19. Clearly, people must be asking, 'just what is the point?' Yet, politicians acknowledge and a few seem remarkably genuine about stamping out graft. Really?In fact, we have been through all this before. This now delicate little nation established an Anti-Corruption Commission back in September 2005. It still boasts a rather pathetic website which outlines the commission's vision to 'build a corrupt-free society!' Astonishingly, hardly any senior politician or bureaucrat has actually faced the commission's wrath, but political opponents have. Zimbabwe is also a signatory to the SADC and African Union (AU) protocols on corruption, not amounting to much, given their respective membership 'corruption rankings'. The country also has its legislation, the Anti Corruption Act [Chapter 9:22], but where has all this taken a once proud, and virtuously upstanding nation?'South of the African Equator' to view his personal blogYes, he Twitters too!

(1) The search engines will hate you if they catch you.
(2) The technology behind it is rather tricky, even very technically competant people try and fail because they don't understand a few crucial nuances.
(3) This is high maintenance intensive SEO work. You can't just put up your pages then forget about them.
(4) There are other ways to accomplish the same results.
Because there some people that abuse the technology to spam the SE's
3. Why is it such high maintenence? Is it coz of the changing SE algorithms?
Keeping track of the spiders and bots IP adresses can be a heavy task itself!
One alternative approach is to actually design your site in the way that the cloaked pages would pretend. E.g., if one of your important searches is "telecommuting jobs" then make a whole sub-section called "The Telecommuting Jobs Center" and stuff it full of text and links related to that term.
I hope you weren't looking for an easy way to dominate the search engines, 'cause this ain't it. If you find one, mail me!
I don't want to duke the system, just trying to think of ways to get my site to rank well in a wide spectrum of themes....any ideas?
ALSO: if I used doorway pages, is there anyway of not getting penalised/banned for using a redirect to the homepage.
Anyone have the the link to Air's post handy?

Additional Information
About Yehu Microfinance TrustThis loan is administered by Yehu Microfinance Trust, which was founded in 1998 as a project of CHOICE Humanitarian Kenya.

Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Photo from previous loan
Kiva allows our Field Partners to re-use the same photo for individual borrowers that have been posted on Kiva's website once before in a 24 month period, and we allow them to re-use group photos for up to 24 months, provided that 80% of the current group's membership is represented.
Taking, collecting, and uploading photos of borrowers is one of the most challenging elements of using Kiva for our Field Partners. In order to make Kiva easier for Field Partners to use, we have allowed them to post successive and concurrent loans without taking a new photo of the borrower if the criteria above are met.
