Never said he wouldn't join us just he had options from germany which he openly admitted. Like i said he will fit along side Chris Riggott nicely. Could be the start of a solid defence with very good goal scoring abilities.

Only joking Mark.... I agree, he is only 21 and as central defenders tend to work well on a long term basis, we could be seeing the start of a partnership to rival anything in the Premiership.

Hello everyone!
I saw the commercial today for the Wish-A-Mile Bike tour which is a 3-day event, 100 miles each day. The bikers spend the night at a school and there are busses that can pick up riders that are tired or hurt or whatever during the day. My question is...how long does it take to train for tours like that? I would love to do this tour even though I'm just now starting out cycling. I ride a hybrid bike and the longest i've ridden was 13 miles in an hour. i know..not much but its a least a start. I told myself that if i'm still biking, whether in the gym once winter hits or outside on my bike, that I will buy a road bike and my parents said they'd help me out. But..can people train for these things in a year or does it take longer? This tour seems awesome and I would love to do it. :-)
Does anyone have any good training advice?
Thanks for the help everyone!

Well, I think I'm hooked on this LD thing... I've never done more that 70km a day, and so I decided to go for the "metric century" today and did it in 3 hours and 53 seconds. I didn't check the wind before I left and my route had at least 60km going right into the wind
I took a few short rest stops and almost lost my **** around 80k in on account of the wind and the hills... but I turned a corner around 85km and was gifted with tail-wind and downhills for the rest of the ride, so I made up for some lost time and felt a bit better about the whole ride.
My "training" thus far has consisted of a 20km r/t commute and the occasional recreational ride into the country... I'm pretty surprised that I made the 100 and even more surprised I did it as quickly as I did. I think I will be hurting tomorrow though

Time for A Cold Brew…Coffee
In 72 hours, the weather in Seattle has gone from damp and near-wintry (I was wearing wool on the Fourth of July) to dry and blueberry-pie skies. In fact, there's a heat advisory today, but a mere drop of sweat compared to the blistering triple-digits conditions that have plagued the mid-Atlantic this week.
Still, anything over 80 degrees means it's time for iced coffee — and not just brewed coffee with a coupla ice cube floaters that results in brown crayon water, but a gutsy cold caffeinated brew that takes the edge off of a summer scorcher.
For the first time this season (I told ya — a few days ago, we were still wearing our woolies), I've whipped up a batch of cold brew coffee, which essentially is a concentrate, dark, viscous and a little slice of heaven. Here's how it works:
Place a half-pound of ground coffee (automatic drip-style) into a mixing bowl and pour 5 cups of cold water over the coffee, stir and allow the mixture to steep, at least 6 hours.
Strain and pour resulting concentrate into a jar or covered pitcher and keep refrigerated. You'll end up with at least 3 cups of concentrate.
To make a cold-brew beverage, start with 1/4 cup of concentrate in a 12-ounce glass. Add 1 cup water or add ice cubes, or if you're hard core like yours truly, simply add milk and taste along the way until desired java flavor, adding more concentrate as you see fit.
Sugar? Up to you, but the long steeping process results in a sweet, almost chocolate-y richness that makes sugar seem superfluous.
Do try this at home! I just had my first cold brew of the day, straight up, with a milk chaser. Summertime and the living is easy…

I only do when there is no traffic, and I know the signal can not be changed by anything but a car (which are most all the signals on my commute). In that case I treat the signal as being defective (because it is). Stop, look, and go.
"Wit beyond measure is man's greatest treasure."

Cyclist that run red lights are----------------------------------stupid.
They also do a disservice to the cycling community.
The poll assumes all signaled intersections are equal, but they are not. Aside from valid reasons already given (eg some signals are activated by triggers that don't see bikes) my answer is that I run red lights when it is safer to do so.
As an example, one of my regular routes takes me down the city's busy main thoroughfare. At one point, there is a cross street with multiple lanes and speedy traffic. I always wait for the green light there, whether the cross street appears clear or not. At the very next intersection is a small cross street which rarely has any traffic at all, and the timing of the lights has me hitting the red almost 100% of the time. I come to a full stop, and if the cross street is clear after a thorough check (and it almost always is) I run this red light because I have to make a left turn at the next intersection which is just a short distance ahead. Running the red means the two traffic lanes I have to cross to access the left turn lane are clear because all the traffic behind me is stopped. Therefore, I can make a safe transition across all lanes. Were I to obey the law here, I would wait for the light to turn green, then immediately begin to merge across two lanes of motor vehicle traffic that is traveling faster than I am, therefore putting myself in danger and pissing off motorists in the process. In this case, I believe running the red is best for all involved, both myself and the motorists around me. Judge me if you must, but I will pick the safest course every time, whether that puts me at odds with the law or not.

Unbelievable. It's OK to act and ride like a selfish pig because there are bad drivers on the road. But being a bad cyclist is OK. No it's not. YOU are the problem. Good drivers hate selfish pig cyclists as much as good cyclists hate selfish pig drivers...but the drivers can kill. Act like responsible road users and call for our position to be recognised and enforced.
This is turning into anger management class or at the least a sideshow. I'm calling for a closure.

Any time there's cracking or loosening of tiles on a ceramic floor, the affected area should be pulled up and replaced immediately. Ceramic floors are designed to form a moisture-proof barrier, and those cracks and loose tiles let moisture underneath, which means the problem will inevitably spread to other tiles if you don't stop it.
Things You'll Need
- Hammer
- Chisel
- Grout saw
- Vacuum cleaner with hose attachment
- New tile to match the existing tile
- Tile adhesive
- Notched putty knife
- Plastic tile spacers
- Powdered grout
- Bucket
- Sponge
Remove as many of the loose or damaged tiles as you can by hand. Use your hammer and chisel to remove the rest. Take out any tiles that show any sign of cracking or moving, so all the tiles at the perimeter of the area are solid and undamaged.
Chisel out all the dried mortar from the exposed underlayment. Use your grout saw to clean the surrounding tiles of all dried grout on the sides facing into the area you're replacing. Use your vaccum cleaner hose to thoroughly pull up all remaining debris and dust from the area.
Spread tile adhesive into the area with your notched putty knife, creating a "bed'' of adhesive that goes right up the adjacent tiles.
Press your new tiles into the area, putting tile spacers between them. With your finger, wipe out any adhesive that squeezes up between the tiles, so you have full open lines between them. Take out the tile spacers and let the tile set overnight.
Mix your grout with water to the consistency of thick mud. Spread it over the newly tiled area, pressing the grout down into the open lines. Wait three minutes, then wipe down the tiles with a wet sponge, getting the new grout lines at the same level as the surrounding lines. Let the new tile set for a day before using the floor.
Tips & Warnings
- Chiseling out tile floor can be very physically challenging, so make sure you're up to it before you start the project.
- Wear protective eye goggles when chiseling out the floor.

Haskell has this cool generic traversal stuff that lets you call something like
map on every node in a collection, either bottom-up or top-down. It's called
everywhere and you'd do something like
everywhere f tree and
f would be called on every node in your tree.
Writing something equivalent in Scala for
Traversable is easy, but Haskell's also works on tuples and the equivalent of case classes or, more generically, what Scala calls
You can traverse over the elements in a
Product using the
productIterator method, but is there some easy way to put a tuple or a case class back together once you know what the arguments to the constructor (actually, I guess the
apply method) should be?
def mapOnProduct[X](f: X -> X, prod: Product) {
val newArgs = prod.productIterator.map {
case x: X => f(x)
case id => id
[?].apply(newArgs: _*)
What can I replace
[?] with so that this has some chance of working?

MOBILE, Ala. (AP) - Max Yates would love to have gone 4-for-4 in conference championships during his Marshall football career.
Failing that, the senior linebacker is hoping for a consolation prize against East Carolina in the GMAC Bowl tonight.
"We have a lot to prove," said Yates, who led the Mid-American Conference in tackles. "We're so used to winning championships, it's a little different not having that ring.
"All we have left is our respect. We have to win that back."
Ditto for the Pirates (6-5), who lost their last two games at home to fall out of the Conference USA hunt.
"We've been talking about redemption a lot, especially among the seniors," ECU offensive lineman Aaron Walker said. "It's our last game as a Pirate, and we really would like to go out on top with a victory.
"We're looking at this as a second chance."
Neither team figured to need another chance. Marshall had won 10 straight since a 49-14 loss to Florida in its opener and led Toledo 23-0 early in the MAC championship game. The Thundering Herd wound up losing 41-36, snapping a string of four straight league titles.
"Our whole goal is to win the MAC championship, and we didn't get that goal," offensive lineman Steve Sciullo said. "We can win the bowl and get the ring, but it won't be the same as getting a conference championship.
"If it doesn't sting, you don't have the heart of a football player. We've got an opportunity to play an extra game, and we've just got to go with it."
East Carolina closed the regular season by blowing double-digit leads against Louisville and Southern Mississippi. Coach Steve Logan doesn't believe the Pirates' record is necessarily indicative of the team's quality. Four of their losses came by a total of 17 points.
"The teams that did win eight and nine games obviously had good football teams, just as we did, but they also got some breaks," Logan said. "We had a tough year in that category. If we could go win this game, it would finish off what I think could be termed a very successful season."
Pernell Griffin, a three-time all-Conference USA linebacker, agrees.
"We feel like with a victory Wednesday, it'll wipe (away) all the disappointments and all the shortcomings we've had during the season," Griffin said.
The game serves as a poignant reminder to a tragedy from a previous meeting.
On Nov. 14, 1970, the Marshall team was returning from a 17-14 loss to the Pirates when the plane carrying the team crashed. All 75 people on board died.
The tragedy occurred before any of the current players were born, but it's still on their minds in Huntington, W. Va.
"It's everywhere. It's an important part of this town and this university," Sciullo said. "Every year they turn the fountain off at the student center. We've got all kinds of monuments. It's just big part of the tradition here at Marshall."

The best time to visit Mumbai is between the months of September and April. The weather is then relatively dry and cool. From June to September there is immense shower, very often with fearsome results. We all know that the floods of 2005 took about a thousand and made thousands more homeless. You should also try to avoid the months just before the monsoon sets in, for then the temperature can be as high as 140°F.
Mumbai is a place where people from different parts of India come for various purposes like trade and commerce, education, business and so on. It is a dream city for many people. The cost of living is very high in Mumbai. Big industrialists find Mumbai to be their ideal place for business. This city being located in close vicinity of Pune, is also visited by a large number of college goers and students from Pune.
Mumbai near Pune is the city of glamor, film stars and night clubs. Here you can witness the world's latest fashion. The streets are marked with crowds watching the film shootings especially in the Marine Drive.It goes without saying that, the greatest spectacle in the Mumbai calendar is Ganesh Chaturthi, a long Hindu festival that lightens up the city every August and September.
This picturesque event reaches its height when huge images of the Ganesha are immersed in the sea, most conspicuously off Chowpatty Beach.
Mumbai is one of the major metropolitan cities of the country. It is well connected to the outside world through airways, railways and road. The Chattrapati Shivaji International Airport serves the city and it is the busiest airport of India. The airport consists of two terminals - an international terminal and a domestic terminal at Santa Cruz Airport. These terminals are situated 4 kms apart and a shuttle bus is used to connect them. Air travel is most convenient as there are direct flights to Mumbai from all the major cities of the world. The Indian railways also connect Mumbai to all the major cities of the country.
Mumbai has various modes of transportation available to tourists and general public. Local trains, buses, taxis and autos are the most commonly available modes of commuting.
There are four lines of these local trains that cover the city extensively. Western Railway running between Churchgate and Virar, Central Railway running between Bombay V.T. and Karjat, Harbour Line running between Bombay V.T. and Mankhurd and another railway line running between Bombay V.T. and New Mumbai. These trains run from 4 am to 1 am in the night and are called, "locals" by the people of Mumbai city. They are the most widely used mode of commuting for the general public.
Mumbai's transport authority, Bombay Electric Supply and Transport, popularly called B.E.S.T runs local buses in the city. It has a fleet of red single and double-decker buses. These buses cover almost all the parts of the city. They run from 5 am till midnight, at an interval of 5 to 30 minutes. The final destination is written in Marathi in front of the bus, and in English at the side. There are newly introduced air-conditioned buses as well.
Other common means of transportation are taxis. These taxis can be hailed on the streets. There are two types of taxis in Mumbai city, Cool Cabs and the standard black and yellow taxi. Cool Cabs are air-conditioned and gray in color and charge 40 percent more than other taxis. They have electronic meters, which display the fare. The standard yellow and black taxis use a mechanical meter. The starting fare is Rs.13. The night charges are 25 percent extra and are applicable from midnight till 5 a.m.
Only taxis are allowed within the city limits, but in the suburbs, the auto rickshaws are a popular means of transport. Three wheeled auto rickshaws, more commonly called autos, can take in upto three passengers. These are run by CNG and carry an electronic meter in front, which displays the fare at the end of the journey.

I agree with the players here. Chris Harris said the following. "It baffles me that NFL.com has taking Jamal Charles season ending or even career ending injury to promote fantasy football #perspective" Followed up by, "I just feel it's very tasteless to use any players season/career ending injury to promote Fantasy Football PERIOD!!!!!!"
Makes me wonder what bucket the league website revenues end up in and how much the players see from it. Even if 100% of the profits ended up in player pockets, it still wouldn't justify the flippant use of a player's livelihood to promote fantasy football. Talk about strange and interesting times.

We're using Release 6.0.5_GA_2213.RHEL4_64_20100202211341 RHEL4_64 NETWORK edition, and plan to upgrade to 7.1 by the end of August.
In the meantime, users who have upgraded to Safari 5.1 are having problems.
Every time I compose, it doesn't include the original message. I have to select include original (a different variety) from the Options menu. And then when I finish with that message, the keyboard won't control things as usual (Escape doesn't go back out to the top level email view, return doesn't go into viewing a message). I can use the mouse or I can log out of Zimbra and back in and it's reset. But then after the next compose or reply, the keyboard is not working again.
This only happens with Safari 5.1. Previous versions of Safari don't have this problem, and Firefox seems fine, as well.
Has anyone seen this problem with ZCS 7.1?

This might belong in the road section, but I often ride my mtn bike from trail to trail via highways/ roads, and I thought it might get more replies here. I ride mostly in AR and OK. I have heard that a bike is recognized as any other vehicle by law in OK, but that is only hearsay. I do remember a couple years ago in Tulsa, a small group of roadies were hit by a car. One of them died. The lady that hit them was passing in a no-passing zone and was held liable, if I remember right. Maybe 1oldroadie will see this and confirm.
How are your laws? And how can I find out for certain the laws in OK and AR?
There is a week long ride here in OK every summer called "Freewheel", usually about 2,000 riders and 500-600 miles. It is usually escorted by a Highway Patrol, and the last time I did that tour the officer made us (actually tried to make us) ride single file. I've also heard the law states no more then two riders abreast.

Federal Agencies Face Challenges in Implementing Initiatives to Improve Public Health Infrastructure
GAO-05-308: Published: Jun 10, 2005. Publicly Released: Jul 11, 2005.

Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
It has been almost 4 years since the anthrax events of October 2001 highlighted the weaknesses in our nation's public health infrastructure. Since that time, emerging infectious diseases have appeared--such as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome and human monkeypox--that have made our readiness for public health emergencies even more critical. Information technology (IT) is central to strengthening the public health infrastructure through the implementation of systems to aid in the detection, preparation for, and response to bioterrorism and other public health emergencies. Congress asked us to review the current status of major federal IT initiatives aimed at strengthening the ability of government at all levels to respond to public health emergencies. Specifically, our objectives were to assess the progress of major federal IT initiatives designed to strengthen the effectiveness of the public health infrastructure and describe the key IT challenges facing federal agencies responsible for improving the public health infrastructure.
Federal agencies have made progress on major public health IT initiatives, although significant work remains to be done. These initiatives include one broad initiative at CDC--the Public Health Information Network (PHIN) initiative--which is intended to provide the nation with integrated public health information systems to counter national civilian public health threats, and two major initiatives at the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which are primarily focused on biosurveillance. CDC's broad PHIN initiative encompasses a number of applications and initiatives, which show varied progress. Currently, PHIN's basic communications systems are in place, but it is unclear when its surveillance systems and data exchange applications will become fully deployed. Further, the overall implementation of PHIN does not yet provide the desired functionality, and so some applications are not widely used by state and local public health officials. For example, CDC's BioSense application, which is aimed at detecting early signs of disease outbreaks, is available to state and local public health agencies, but according to the state and local officials with whom we spoke, it is not widely used, primarily because of limitations in the data it currently collects. DHS is also pursuing two major public health IT initiatives--the National Biosurveillance Integration System and the Biological Warning and Incident Characterization System (BWICS). Both of these initiatives are still in development. The BWICS initiative, in addition, is associated with three other programs, one of which--BioWatch--is operational. This early- warning environmental monitoring system was developed for detecting trace amounts of biological materials and has been deployed in over 30 locations across the United States. Until recently, its three IT components were not interoperable and required redundant data entry in order to communicate with each other. As federal agencies work with state and local public health agencies to improve the public health infrastructure, they face several challenges. First, the national health IT strategy and federal health architecture are still being developed; CDC and DHS will face challenges in integrating their public health IT initiatives into these ongoing efforts. Second, although federal efforts continue to promote the adoption of data standards, developing such standards and then implementing them are challenges for the health care community. Third, these initiatives involve the need to coordinate among federal, state, and local public health agencies, but establishing effective coordination among the large number of disparate agencies is a major undertaking. Finally, CDC and DHS face challenges in addressing specific weaknesses in IT planning and management that may hinder progress in developing and deploying public health IT initiatives. Until all these challenges are addressed, progress toward building a stronger public health infrastructure will be impeded, as will the ability to share essential information concerning public health emergencies and bioterrorism.
Recommendations for Executive Action
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: HHS has taken steps to improve the development and implementation of major public health IT initiatives. The department is aligning public health initiatives with its national strategy for health IT, the federal health architecture, and ongoing health IT initiatives, and has improved its efforts to coordinate with state and local public health agencies. As part of its strategy, HHS established a population health workgroup to bring together federal, state, and private sector entities to develop IT solutions for public health emergencies and other areas of concern. The workgroup is considering ongoing public health IT initiatives, such as components of the Centers' for Disease Control and Prevention CDC) Public Health Information Network (PHIN), as it develops requirements for public health IT solutions. The workgroup includes representatives from many of HHS's divisions, the departments of Veterans Affairs and Defense and other federal agencies, and state and local public health agencies. HHS also awarded contracts for security and privacy solutions relevant to the implementation of federal, state, and local health and public health IT and for addressing variations between the various federal and state laws and regulations. The outcomes of these contracts have resulted in initial steps to address and resolve these variations and to coordinate solutions. Additionally, the CDC has taken steps to more effectively consider input from state and local public health entities in its design and development of a major component of PHIN, a biosurveillance initiative called BioSense. HHS's inclusion of public health strategies within its overall strategy for health IT, the inclusion of state and local entities in it contracts to develop specific solutions for variations in federal, state, and local practices, and increased involvement of state and local public health entities in system design and development has increased the level of coordination between federal, state, and local public health IT initiative and could help improve the development and implementation of major public health IT initiatives.
Recommendation: In order to improve the development and implementation of major public health IT initiatives, the Secretary of Health and Human Services should ensure that the federal initiatives are (1) aligned with the national health IT strategy, the federal health achitechture, and ongoing public health IT initiatives and (2) coordinated with state and local public health initiatives.
Agency Affected: Department of Health and Human Services
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: HHS implemented this recommendation by taking steps to improve the exchange of clinical and public health data. Specifically, HHS awarded a contract for standards harmonization across the public and private health care sectors to a panel made up of public and private members. HHS charged the panel to select standards that satisfy requirements for improving the exchange of both clinical and public health data. To date, the panel has identified about 90 industry-accepted standards and is developing implementation guidance for data and communications standards to support interoperability throughout the health care industry, including the exchange of public health information. The implementation of the standards by the health care industry is encouraged by another HHS initiative which defined initial criteria and processes for certifying that certain electronic health information products meet these standards.
Recommendation: In order to improve the development and implementation of major public health IT initiatives, the Secretary of Health and Human Services should ensure federal actions to encourage the development, adoption, and implementation of health care data and communication standards across the health care industry to address interoperability challenges associated with the exchange of public health information.
Agency Affected: Department of Health and Human Services
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: HHS, through its Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT, awarded a contract for standards harmonization between the public and private health care sectors, including public health. In July 2006 the contractors selected 90 data and communications standards to address requirements defined by the American Health Information Community, which HHS Secretary Leavitt chairs. The requirements include
Recommendation: The Secretary of Homeland Security should align existing and planned DHS IT initiatives with other ongoing public health IT initiatives at the Department of Health and Human Services, including adoption of data and communications standards.

Devil's Pass
- Air Date:
- Fact: In February of 1959, nine Russian hikers ventured into a remote area of the Ural Mountains in Russia. Fact: Two weeks later, all nine were found dead. Fact: What happened to them is a mystery that has baffled investigators and researchers for decades. It has become known as the Dyatlov Pass Incident. Rumors have attributed their deaths to everything from alien encounters and government conspiracies to supernatural causes. To date, no one has been able to adequately explain what drove nine experienced hikers from their tents so frantically that they ripped through the material from the inside or how their bodies came to be exposed to such dangerous amounts of radiation that it was still detected weeks later. And no one knows why they were discovered hundreds of yards from their camp, half dressed and with internal injuries including broken ribs and fractured skulls, but with no external wounds at all. The body of one young woman was even missing her tongue. Present Day: Five ambitious American college students are issued a grant to return to the site of the original events in the belief that they can uncover and document the truth of what happened at Dyatlov's Pass. But what they find is more shocking than anything they could have imagined. Their trek through the Ural Mountains, retracing the steps of that ill-fated journey, is plagued by strange and increasingly terrifying phenomena, all of which suggest that in spite of their desolate surroundings, they are not alone. The forces behind the Dyatlov Pass Incident have been waiting for them. The students' recently recovered footage – the only clue to what happened to them – was deemed too disturbing for public eyes. But, like everything else connected to Dyatlov's Pass, the truth has found its way out.

The personal response by farmers to the Dust Bowl and the farming crisis in the 1930s was influenced by gender. Farm families sought every possible way to survive. Women usually acted individually, seeking innovations in farm management and sales. Farm women cut their budgets and produced more food; they tried raising new plants and animals, particularly poultry; and they took additional jobs, frequently teaching, to supplement the family's income. As Mabel Hickey McManus of Lyman County, South Dakota, found, the Great Depression forced an alteration of traditional female farm roles.
Men tended to band together. Farm activism has a strong institutional tradition, and many male and some female farmers joined existing organizations or formed new ones. Of the latter group, the Farmers' Holiday Association was the most instantaneous, and it provided an institutional umbrella under which farmers with a variety of ideologies could pursue the cause of agrarian survival. In the rush to prevent foreclosures and to push farm prices up, farmers took

It is the full name of the nightlife epicenter most diners call Seven, a place where the classy folks of the Twin Cities come to drink cosmos. It's also host to a weekly all-you-can-eat sushi bar. So does the fish stack up or is it just the table scraps that the fancy folks turned down?

The Crunchy roll from Seven
Sean McPherson
Sushi doesn't do very well in a standard buffet setting. Many restaurants address this issue by offering their all-you-can-eat sushi on a per-order basis, which is the format Seven has selected.
Seven's sushi special runs on Mondays from 6 to 8:30 p.m. for $35, though there is no mention of it on the Seven website nor on any signage in the restaurant. When your hostess seats you you will not be offered the all-you-can-eat sushi menu, it must be requested. All-you-can-eat diners receive edamame, miso soup, and a selection of nigiri, maki rolls, and specialty rolls.
There is a lot of excellent maki and nigiri to be had here. The specialty rolls are largely tempura-based fillings with unagi sauce and tempura flakes atop the roll. These won't wow sushi purists or connoisseurs, but for individuals a bit hesitant about getting into raw fish, the specialty rolls with cooked fish go a long way.
Seven also offers escolar, a fish that is risky to consume in more than six-ounce portions because of its wax content. Take the risk and treat yourself to one order: The buttery fish is the best of the nigiri selection.
This won't be the sushi experience that convinces your coastal friends we aren't sushi flyover territory, but if you are looking for an affordable sushi night out, this Monday night deal is a great way to give Seven a try.

TreeTop Morning, High Wire Rerun
Galapagos and Amazon -Feast for the senses (and stomach)
I kept my eyes on the rotted wood connections while others watched for the next bird - most of which we saw the morning before. The bright sun brought up the temps quickly.
It's just too bad there weren't any giant snakes.
After lunch and relaxing we tried watching birds at the cable walk again but the warm afternoon and sun probably kept birds under cover so there were few to spot.

We're happy to announce that OpenTok client SDKs 2.5 for iOS, Android and JavaScript are now available.
Tag Archives: Android SDK
Important patch release: Android and iOS SDKs 2.4.1
A few days ago we released version 2.4.1 of our Android and iOS SDKs. This update to our SDKs were prompted by Mozilla's implementation of a security enhancement which we fully support. However, this enhancement has the unfortunate side effect of making older versions of our mobile SDKs incompatible with Firefox 38 (scheduled to hit production on/around May 12, 2015). Not to worry though, the 2.4.1 SDK fixes this compatibility issue.
What did Mozilla change?
In an effort to bolster security Mozilla updated the encryption scheme for DTLS negotiation of the WebRTC handshake.
OpenTok Android SDK 2.4 now available
We've recently released a new version of our OpenTok Android SDK. It includes:
- Screen sharing support — You can now share your mobile screen as the video source for a publisher. See the code samples.
- Hardware acceleration — You can take advantage of the built-in VP8 hardware decoding on the following select devices: Asus K010, Asus K011, and Asus K013. The hardware decoding uses less CPU for video processing, saves battery life, and provides a better app experience. Hardware acceleration is enabled by default in the SDK, no additional development is required.
- Emulator support — You can now use the Android built-in emulator for development with OpenTok.
- Multiple bug fixes and performance optimizations.
For more information please see the release notes.
OpenTok Android and iOS SDKs 2.3.1 are released!
We've recently released patches for our mobile SDKs: OpenTok Android SDK 2.3.1 and OpenTok iOS SDK 2.3.1.
OpenTok iOS SDK 2.3.1
This patch release resolves the crash occurring on iOS 6 in 2.3.0 version. Some of our partners are using iOS devices which cannot be updated to iOS 7 or iOS 8. iOS 6 is now two generations old but we continue to maintain backwards compatibility for the current generation of iOS clients. Please note we reserve the right to review this policy in the future. Download it here.
OpenTok iOS and Android SDKs 2.2 into production
Following on from our OpenTok archiving and storage announcement we're excited to fill you in on some updates we are making to our OpenTok iOS and Android SDKs 2.2 that are going into production. What started out as internal engineering project has paved the way to the release of a suite of valuable mobile features which have become a formal part of the product offering, setting OpenTok further apart from other WebRTC platforms.

|FIBRE CHANNEL FABRIC AND SWITCHES WITH FLEXIBLE PREFIX ADDRESSING - A way to assign flexible prefixes to Switches in Fibre Channel Fabrics while using the currently defined FC_ID address space. This allows end devices in different Fibre Channel Fabrics to communicate with one another, without requiring modifications to existing end devices, nor to perform Network Address Translation between Fabrics. The existing address space for each Switch includes a dynamically configurable number of host bits sufficient to address all the end devices coupled to the Switch and the Switch itself. The remaining bits, called the Switch prefix, are used to identify the Switch in the switching Fabric. In an alternative embodiment, the Switch prefix bits may be further configured into a first sub-set of bits used to identify a specific Fabric (Fabric prefix) and a second sub-set of bits used to identify the Switch in the Fabric (Switch_ID). The flexible addressing scheme enables end devices in different Fabrics to communicate with one another without expanding the Fibre Channel address space or the need to perform Network Address Translations.

Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

OSU 2011 Game Thread
In the 80's, locals used to talk about the Blackhawks fans. They said that the team had 40,000 loyal fans. 20,000 fans that went to very game and 20,000 fans that watched every game on closed circuit TV. So 40,000 fans are rejoicing today and the rest of Chicagoland doesn't know that the strike is over.
Hockey is a great sport. It's just too bad that Gary Bettman is trying to kill it

Federal income tax hikes would hurt Oklahoma economy, White House says
WASHINGTON — Income tax hikes set to be triggered in January would force Oklahoma consumers to pull back on spending and stunt the growth of the state's economy, according to a White House report released Thursday.
Should federal income tax rates return to the levels of a decade ago, the average Oklahoma family of four with an annual income of $63,100 would see its tax bill rise by $2,200 next year, the report says. In all, 1.3 million Oklahoma families would have higher federal income tax bills.
Oklahoma consumers would spend an estimated $2.2 billion less next year, and the state's gross domestic product would decline by 1.5 percent, the White House says.
Congressional Republicans and the White House are in a standoff over the expiring tax cuts. President Barack Obama wants to retain the current rates for couples with income under $250,000, while Republicans want to preserve the rates for all taxpayers, including those in the top brackets.
The White House report says 99 percent of Oklahoma families making less than $250,000 would see no income tax increase under the president's plan.
Retaining the tax cuts will require action by Congress. If lawmakers fail to take action to preserve the lower rates, the higher ones will go into effect. That would be on top of higher payroll taxes since the temporary cut in the tax that funds Social Security is also set to expire in January.
Obama this week has been highlighting the potential impact of higher taxes on the middle class, while Republicans have countered that higher taxes on the upper brackets would hurt many small businesses that file tax returns as individuals.
Rep. Tom Cole, R-Moore, made waves within the Republican Party this week by suggesting Republicans approve the tax cuts for the 98 percent of taxpayers in the lower brackets and fight later about the rates for those in the upper brackets.
Cole said he didn't want middle-class families held hostage in the standoff.
Cole's suggestion was roundly dismissed by Republican leaders. House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, has said Republicans are willing to accept more revenue as part of a deficit-reduction deal, but only through closing tax loopholes.
But White House spokesman Jay Carney said Thursday that Obama would not sign legislation extending tax cuts for the nation's top earners.
