One of the Christmas songs playing on the radio this time of year is called "Grown Up Christmas List." The singer says that the list is not for herself, but for a world in need. This list includes, "no more lives torn apart, that wars may never start…that right would always win."
Christmas is a time for wishing for good things, because we know that God has given us His Son — and if He has gone that far, as St. Paul declares, how will He not give us everything else besides?
Let us increase our longing, then, that every life may be secure, safe from the violence of abortion and euthanasia, and from the ravages of poverty, crime, and war. Let us write our Christmas list with confidence.

|North Rib
Date Climbed: Aug 17, 2008
|I loosely followed the the rib, staying on slabs to the west of it.
The summit registry was scattered down the east face, It did not look accidental. There was one kid(late teens) who left the summit just after I gained the ridge. THe couple I'd talked to the day before metioned nothing about it. I'm guessing it was the kid. Heard some rock falls from the summit as well, as if tossed over the edge. I did what I could to start a new registry but my pen broke.
|Posted Aug 18, 2008 8:20 am
|So close
|I still call this success even though I missed the summit proper. The approach is too long to go back!
|Posted Jul 12, 2008 10:07 pm
|Re: So close
|Brad! You are back!
I concluded that Tyndall is a very feasible dayhike -- after I schlepped a big pack up to the Pass, it was all of 12:30 PM. With lighter shoes and a daypack, an earlier start, plus picking up most water on the way, it would be less than other stuff we have done.

|I went solo up the northwest ridge, then down the standard route.
It was really fun and much better rock than I expected. I had to detour west around some obstacles.
This is a beautiful mountain with excellent views, highly recommended.

|Tough approach
Date Climbed: Jul 8, 2004
|Did the class 3 rib route. It was a fun and quick ascent. The approach over the shepard's pass was the hardest part.

|NW Ridge
Date Climbed: Jul 1, 2007
|Climbed up the NW ridge and came down the North Rib. Williamson looked intimidating from the summit but was not so bad once at the base of the mountain. Climbed Williamson the following day.

|Turns in March
Date Climbed: Mar 29, 2008
|Toting a splitboard and skis Peter and I toped out via the NW face, and then descended nearly 6000 feet, although not continuously. Very high winds the two evenings before our descent made for some very crusty and mixed snow conditions. Had the mountain and Shepherd's Pass all to ourselves for four days, great trip!

Date Climbed: Aug 5, 2007
|I think the fact that I was smack talking this mountain once I saw how "teeny" it was from Shepherd's Pass was my tragic flaw. She took me and slapped me hard in the face, that Tyndall. Took the Northwest Ridge to the summit ridge and didn't see a way to scoot over to the true summit. Did I miss some sort of a turn or hidden escalator or something? What's this mystical notch and gendarme everyone keeps referring to cause I didn't see sh!t.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Jamie39 Creamy deliciousness! This stuff is AMAZING! I am allergic to chocolate so I can't have regular hot cocoa. This is a fabulous alternative! It's so creamy, sweet and yummy. Perfect for cold winter night by the fire. February 1, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by The Jade Mask Simply Amazing This is a simply wonderful cocoa, very flavorful and comforting all at the same time. I've given it as a gift and heard plenty of praise for it, all of it richly deserved. December 5, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by Yersinia Loved it! I can't say I agree with the first reviewer. I was given a pack of this as a gift, and absolutely loved it! I found the taste rich and creamy and sweet, perfect to drink on a quiet evening when it's cold outside, curled up with a book and the cat on your lap! :) Too bad I have to rely on American friends to send me more, since World Marker does not (yet?) deliver to where I live!

Rated 1 out of 5 by squiggy Not so much! Wanted to try this before I gave as gifts. I was not impressed with any of the flavors. It lacks something. Not as rich as I would like. November 9, 2011

"I think it isn't so much a story that they are dating as it would be if they were to break up. That would be incredible to watch, to be quite honest ... Imagine if they were to break up and then wreck each other the next six races because they were mad? That would be way more compelling."
Ricky Stenhouse's response:
"Coming from a guy who never had a girlfriend? I don't think so."
Kurt Busch
"It's TMZ now. We used to write about racing, now it's more about the emotional or personal side of it. It's an element that will draw attention. It's exciting. At the end of the day I don't think it's going to be anything different than a couple racers out there racing."
Jimmie Johnson
"We can come up with plenty of jokes and how humorous it could be on the track and what each of them (Danica Patrick and Ricky Stenhouse Jr.) are thinking. We will all be watching with great curiosity I'm sure."
Jeff Gordon
"Listen, we all have awkward moments with our competitors, our teammates, our friends out there. There's no doubt it's going to happen. It's just how they handle it. I'm sure that hopefully that conversation has come up and they've talked about it, or they will if they haven't."
Mark Martin
"It could get really interesting. If Danica starts getting the best of him on a regular basis, it's going to be tough on Ricky."

Sundance isn't all Park City has to offer this week. Slamdance is in full force from Jan. 20-26. Tucked away in the Treasure Mountain Inn, Slamdance is right at home on Main Street, Park City. And they're indie cred is still very much intact where Sundance's might lack.
Todd Kellstein's Buffalo Girls premiered on Sunday, January 23rdat evening showing. The documentary takes its audience to rural Thailand. Buffalo Girls is an incredible story that forces the audience to look beyond the initial shock of the story to a deeper economic problem. However, the documentary tends to get too caught up in the story and doesn't give enough background information for its full power to sink in.
Buffalo Girls follows two eight-year-old girls, Pet and Stam, as they compete for the Muay Thai championship. Muay Thai is a traditional form of combat that has been practiced for roughly 700 years. To westernize it, Muay Thai is a lot like boxing. These tiny girls train and work to be the best in their divisions, but they fight without any protective gear while fully-grown adults watch and bet on the outcome.
I admit, at the beginning of the movie, I was disgusted. As much as I loved Hit Girl, the 10-year-old assassin the comic series Kick-Ass, seeing these two little girls duke it out in the real world was nowhere near ok. I was angry at the girls' parents for letting them fight to support their families. An eight-year-old shouldn't have to worry about that. However, during the question and answer period with the director, I stopped being disgusted and started being angry.
It turns out both sets of parents had jobs. In fact, they even had multiple jobs. Stam's parents were farmers who also ran a stand at the marketplace, but they couldn't provide for their family. One night of Stam's boxing could bring home as much as half her family's monthly rent. The economic situation of Stam's family wasn't because the parents weren't trying to provide, it was because the money they were making just wasn't enough.
These girls were able to pay their own school fees. They helped their families build houses. Pet and Stam were able to do all of this because of boxing, but they're parents couldn't do these things alone because of the economic injustices that sweep the world.
That economic injustice is the most powerful message of this movie, but it wasn't clarified during the documentary. It took the question and answer time to understand what I should really be mad about. It's a pity because Buffalo Girls has the potential to move people to action. It just needs a little more background before it gets caught up in emotion.

However, the number of foodborne illnesses in Summit County is comparatively low.
"We're kind of lucky to be in an area where we see less than the rest of the nation on average," Park City Medical Center Emergency Department Medical Director Kris Kemp said.
While the study has shown that foods containing produce are responsible for half the norovirus outbreaks, the virus can also be transmitted by those infected with the virus touching other objects.
"The norovirus is running rampant across the entire United States this season as the main source of our foodborne illness. It's so common we don't really consider it foodborne just because you can pick it up from a door knob as easy as something else," Kemp explained.
More foodborne illnesses are caused by leafy vegetables than any other food, while poultry is responsible for more deaths than any other food, according to the study.
"It's often not the bacteria that is a problem but the toxins the bacteria produce because our bodies are used to managing bacteria all the time," he said. "Every time you swallow, you are getting a load of bacteria that your body is used to fighting off. It's part of our immune system. It's not something to be scared of. It's just the way we are designed to live in this bacterial- and viral-rich environment called planet earth.
The issue, Kemp said, is when food sits out and bacteria are allowed to grow to a load higher than our bodies are able to manage well, then we start to show symptoms of the virus.
But most foodborne illnesses are transmitted to the food by someone with unclean hands, he said.
"There are some bacteria that just grow naturally in the environment, but it's not as common. If you look at illnesses that can only be transmitted by food, that category would shrivel quite quickly," Kemp said.
Instead, most foodborne illnesses come from fecal matter.
"That's an ugly truth no one wants to talk about, but that's where things are coming from," he said.
Kemp said that when bacteria like shigella or salmonella grow, it usually starts with fecal matter from either an animal or human, and the bacteria is transmitted from someone who didn't wash their hands well.
"So as long as people are careful, wash their hands, and prepare and store their food properly, they should only worry about the door knobs they come across," he said.

Infertility & Reproduction Health Center
Sperm FAQ
In this article
Is there anything you can do to improve the health of your sperm?
Many of the things you do to keep yourself healthy can also improve the health of your sperm. These include:
- Avoiding cigarettes and illicit drugs, especially anabolic steroids
- Avoiding exposure to toxins such as pesticides and heavy metals
- Limiting alcohol intake
- Eating a healthy diet and maintaining a healthy weight
- Keeping your scrotum cool, because heat slows sperm production; avoid hot baths and hot tubs, wear boxers instead of briefs, and avoid pants that are tight or restrictive.
What does a semen analysis tell?
Semen analysis is a test that can help health care providers determine the cause of infertility. Performed on semen ejaculated into a cup, the test provides information about sperm and semen. Here are some of the things the doctor looks for:
Amount and thickness of semen. The typical ejaculate is 2-6 milliliters (mL) of semen, or around a 1/2 teaspoon to 1 teaspoon. Less semen than that may not contain enough sperm to achieve a pregnancy. More semen than that could dilute the concentration of sperm. Semen should be thick to start with and become thinner 10 to 15 minutes after ejaculation. Semen that stays thick may make it difficult for sperm to move.
Sperm concentration. Also called sperm density, this is the number of sperm in millions per milliliter (mL) of semen. Twenty million or more sperm per mL is considered normal.
Sperm motility. This is the percentage of sperm in a sample that are moving as well as an assessment of their movement. One hour after ejaculation, at least 50% of sperm should be moving forward in a straight line.
Morphology. This is an analysis of the sperm size, shape, and appearance. The test analyzes 200 sperm, noting any defects.
Semen analysis is also used to check for the presence of sperm following vasectomy.
Do men stop making sperm when they are older?
Unlike women, whose fertility ends at menopause, men can continue to be fertile throughout life. Although sperm production decreases with age, men continue to produce sperm, and even elderly men have fathered children.

NSF, Big Coal Big R&D Winners
The National Science Foundation and government-funded carbon mitigation programs would get huge increases in research spending from the $825 billion stimulus program unveiled in Washington on Friday. The NSF-funded research, currently at $6 billion annually, would get an additional $3 billion over the next two years, according to the plan. Carbon capture and sequestration research will get an additional $2.4 billion in funding.
"Clean coal," which has been the target of a heated advertising campaign by environmental groups in recent weeks, would receive a bigger increase than all renewable energy research combined, which would receive just $2 billion over the next two years in the program. However, the full $825 billion American Recovery and Reinvestment Act ($550 billion in spending; $275 billion in tax cuts) would spend $4.5 billion on upgrading the electricity grid and would make large investments in alternative energy installations, which should trigger greater private sector investment in alternative energy sources like wind and solar.
On the biomedical side, the $30 billion National Institutes of Health would get only $1.5 billion over the next two years from the stimulus package. Instead, the program would make a major down payment on creating an authoritative comparative effectiveness research agency, which is designed to inform medical decision makers about what works best in health care. The $1.1 billion recommendation for comparative effectiveness research would send $400 million to the Health and Human Services department for studies at agencies like the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services; $400 million to NIH; and $300 million to the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, which previously housed a minor research program on comparative effectiveness. Sidestepping controversies surrounding industry participation in the program's management, the bill would set up an all-government coordinating council, and would give the Institute of Medicine $1.5 million to develop a list of research priorities by June.
Analysts cautioned the first Obama administration budget, due out in early February, could redraw the priorities. But for now, hard sciences, traditional DOE research programs and competitiveness initiatives (the manufacturing-oriented National Institute for Standards and Technology would receive a 2-year $520 million shot-in-the-arm for its annual $700 million budget) appear to be the big percentage winners. "Although NSF only funds about 20 percent of its proposals, you have to wonder if the agency really has that many good proposals lying around," said Kei Koizumi, who tracks R&D policy for the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
Biz-Backed Free Market Groups Promote DDT
The authors of a new report claiming European Union pesticide regulations will retard efforts to combat malaria are affiliated with an industry-funded group whose previous forays into public policy included denying global warming, combating efforts to curb smoking, and promoting expansion of genetically-modified crops to alleviate world hunger. The two editors of "The EU's Nasty Bite," Phillip Stevens and Caroline Boin, are affiliated with the International Policy Network (IPN), a London-based group that argues for free market solutions to environmental and health problems. The report claims that the EU's proposed Thematic Strategy for Pesticides would ban pesticides like DDT that are also used to control vector-borne diseases such as malaria. The EU plan was designed to strengthen controls over harmful pesticides used in crop production.
Conservative-leaning think tanks like IPN have waged a multi-year campaign to promote renewed use of DDT to kill malarial mosquitoes. Other groups pushing the pesticide include the Institute of Economic Affairs and the Competitive Enterprise Institute. The three groups have personnel in common and share an ideological opposition to environmental and health-motivated restrictions on corporate activity. These groups have undertaken extensive efforts, many of them funded by tobacco giant Phillip Morris, to link Silent Spring author Rachel Carson to malarial deaths. While DDT is still used in parts of the developing world for indoor spraying to control household mosquitoes, its efficacy is limited in many regions due to mosquitoes developing resistance. Recent research also points to significant increased risks of breast cancer from exposure to DDT.
The IPN has received funding from ExxonMobil, Eli Lilly, and other corporate donors. Contributing authors to the group's latest pro-DDT report include Richard Tren, director of Africa Fighting Malaria, who previously authored a 2002 paper entitled "Who's Afraid of Climate Change?" for IPN; Professor Sir Colin Berry, who has received significant research funding from Medtronic;David Zaruk, who is currently with Cefic, the European chemical industry council, and has worked in advocacy and communications for the chemical industry since 1995; Sir Richard Feachem, who leads the ExxonMobil-funded Global Health Group at UC Berkeley; and Professor Paul Reiter, who called the IPCC's Fourth Assessment Report (2007) on climate change a "polemic." Reiter is affiliated with the Competitive Enterprise Institute and the Annapolis Center for Science-Based Public Policy, which has received $763,500 in funding from ExxonMobil.
EPA Issues Weak C8 Water Advisory
On the eve of leaving office, the Bush administration released a watered down health advisory for drinking water tainted by the toxic chemical C8, the Charleston Gazette reported last week. The chemical, which is used to produce nonstick products like Teflon, endangers health, but regulators have not set a binding federal limit for emissions or human exposure, according to the article. Dupont, the company that makes the chemical, submitted research conducted in 1997 to the Environmental Protection Agency revealing the chemical to be "extremely toxic" to animals.
In 2002, DuPont agreed to provide residents with bottled water or install water treatment equipment when the level of C8 in drinking water exceeded .5 parts per billion. The EPA's new plan recommends residents use bottled water only if C8 levels exceed 0.4 parts per billion. That restriction is ten times higher than the standard recently adopted in New Jersey under EPA administrator designate Lisa Jackson, the story said.
Device Maker Sues Whistleblower for Slander
Peter Wilmshurst, a cardiologist with the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital in the United Kingdom, was sued for slander over claims that NMT Medical, a manufacturer of a device meant to close congenital holes in the heart, withheld trial data because the data might "undercut sales," the New York Times reported. Wilmshurst claimed that the company failed to provide him with diagnostic tests that might have proved his contention that the device frequently failed to seal off blood flow within the heart, according to the article. The company disputed the claim, saying Wilmshurst turned on it because the trial's failure undermined his theory of a link between individuals with congenital heart openings and migraine headaches.
In 2003, Wilmshurst was given an award by the UK-based charity HealthWatch for his 20 years work exposing research misconduct. In his acceptance speech, he explained that "institutions and journals trust researchers not to fall prey to the temptation" of dishonesty. "We need to put in place robust checks on research," he said. The organization is now raising funds to cover his legal defense against the NMT Medical slander suit.
Meanwhile, in other medical device news, Sen. Charles Grassley's ongoing conflict of interest investigation revealed that spine surgeon Thomas Zdeblick failed to tell the University of Wisconsin about an estimated $19 million he received from Medtronic over five years for designing and promoting the firm's spinal products. Robert Golden, dean of University of Wisconsin's medical school, told the Wall Street Journal that the school's disclosure requirements were "indefensible" and would be toughened.
FDA Lit Rule Promotes Off-Label Drug Use
In another midnight action by the Bush administration, the Food and Drug Administration last week issued a final guidance allowing medical sales personnel to distribute peer-reviewed scientific literature to physicians that promotes the off-label use of drugs and devices. The only limitation in the guidance was that the studies must be based on "well-controlled" clinical studies, which wasn't carefully defined. The guidance said that allowable studies included "historically controlled studies, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies, and meta-analyses if they are testing a specific clinical hypothesis." Marketing studies, sometimes called seeding trials because they are designed to encourage investigators to use the drug or device, could be distributed under the guidance as long as the peer-reviewed journal had a conflict-of-interest disclosure policy. Consumer groups, including the Center for Science in the Public Interest's Integrity in Science project, unsuccessfully opposed the proposed guidance.
Meanwhile, Eli Lilly agreed to settle a Justice Department suit alleging the company illegally promoted the anti-psychotic drug Zyprexa for use among children and the elderly. The charges in the suit included allegations that company sales representatives improperly distributed medical journal articles that promoted the off-label uses. A new study appearing in last week's New England Journal Medicine revealed that Zyprexa and other anti-psychotics that are routinely prescribed off-label double patients' risk of dying from sudden heart failure.
Palin Sues to Block Whale Protections
Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin said her administration will sue to block Endangered Species Act protection for a population of beluga whales in Cook Inlet, a saltwater channel running from Anchorage to the Gulf of Alaska. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association announced last October that the population, which numbered as high as 1,300 in the 1970s but has plummeted to just 375 animals in recent years, was in danger of extinction and would be listed as endangered. Palin's administration says that the endangered listing, which would require federal agencies to consult with NOAA scientists before issuing permits for commercial activity that may disturb the whales, would disrupt business activity including offshore oil and gas operations in Cook Inlet.
Odds and Ends
New Jersey environmental chief Lisa Jackson, President-elect Obama's pick to head the EPA, vowed to base agency decisions on science, not politics, in a confirmation hearing before the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works. ... Jane Lubchenko, President-elect Obama's pick to head the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association, called for a renewed commitment to science that recognizes "the extent of human domination of the planet." ... RAND Health, a division of the RAND Corp., unveiled a health care reform website called COMPARE to "help public and private decision makers systematically assess and compare the effects of different (proposed) policies." The initiative is funded by insurance, drug, medical supply and health service companies.
Cheers and Jeers

AT-SPI on D-Bus
contents last updated 1 June 2011
- 1 AT-SPI on D-Bus
- 2 AT-SPI D-Bus design
Introduction (skip to main contents)
AT-SPI technologies are currently migrating to D-Bus for their transport technology. As such, this document serves as a tutorial, design document and project update page for the
AT-SPI D-Bus project.
- Current Version:
- Previous Version:
Page Contributions: Instructions & Requirements
- Small factual errors or ambiguities should simply be updated with an improved wording.
- For open issues, marked with the string ToDo:, please add your name to comments. Such discussions should be replaced with an updated summary of the point once a conclusion has been reached to help readability.
- Please add a date wherever the information is subject to possible change in the future.
- Please update outdated content.
AT-SPI was originally designed for, and is currently implemented by the GNOME project using CORBA, an object-based IPC/RPC technology. CORBA is very portable but somewhat heavier weight than D-Bus.The
AT-SPI specification itself is tied to CORBA as it is defined in CORBA IDL. ORBit as an inter-process communication technology has many problems going forward, is deprecated in the Gnome project. CORBA does not exist in the KDE project and is generally resisted in embedded developments.
In an effort to move AT-SPI forward, a D-Bus project was started in November 2006. This took the form of a performance and design review available on the GNOME wiki. Work began on the implementation in May 2007.
Work is on-going and the project code is currently hosted at
git://git.gnome.org in the at-spi2-core, at-spi2-atk, and pyatspi2 modules.
AT-SPI D-Bus Design
AT-SPI consists of several parts:
- atk-bridge
- cspi
- pyatspi
- registryd
- loginhelper
The registry daemon has two distinct tasks.
- Keeping track of all the accessible applications on the desktop.
- Dealing with and forwarding X events over AT-SPI D-Bus.
The registry of accessible applications is relatively simple and has been fairly well tested.
- Possibly XEVIE code should be removed as this will not be available in future X.org releases.
A client side library in 'C' for access to AT-SPI accessibility information. Provides a wrapper around the D-Bus interface and also caches information when possible to avoid making round-trip D-Bus calls for commonly-accessed information that can easily be cached.
A Python wrapper around libatspi providing a more Pythonic AT-SPI interface that is compatible with the original CORBA-based pyatspi.
AT-SPI uses its own D-Bus bus, in order to handle accessibility of administrative applications. There is a program called at-spi-bus-launcher to manage the lifecycle of this bus and provide a method for retrieving its address.
Differences between AT-SPI D-Bus and AT-SPI CORBA
Remote reference counting is not implemented in AT-SPI2 for performance and complexity reasons There is a new caching mechanism where data accessed most often is transferred with accessible objects and will be cached by the AT-SPI bindings to avoid the need to make unnecessary round-trip calls. However, some widgets, such as Gtk treeviews and OpenOffice spreadsheets, may have numerous children that they create on an as-needed basis, so it would not be useful to enumerate them. These objects indicate this by setting the MANAGES_DESCENDANTS state. In the long term, we may want to change the way these objects are handled so that applications do not need to expose what could be an infinite space. However, it is important that existing applications continue to work without modifications, particularly applications not tied to GNOME, since they would otherwise need to act differently depending on which version of atk is present. The solution that we are using is for atk-bridge to 'lease' children of
ManagesDescendants objects; if these objects are not visible and are not accessed by a client for 30 seconds, then they may be garbage-collected. Wherever possible, including application events, synchronous method calls have been replaced by asynchronous D-Bus signals.
In other aspects the protocol is essentially the same as the current, IDL specified, at-spi interface. The two are intended to be completely compatible. This is so that API compatible bindings may be generated and ATs may be re-used with minor modification.
Regression Testing
To be considered ready for testing in the open AT-SPI D-Bus must first pass the Orca test suite. Orca has the largest test suite of all accessibility applications and provides the best test for AT-SPI D-Bus. Previously AT-SPI D-Bus has performed very badly in these tests. Many of these failures may be performance related as the failures were different on lower specified PCs. Other failures are likely related to the caching used to improve performance. The caching means that if signals are missing to update accessibility values AT-SPI D-Bus will provide different data to the AT-SPI CORBA implementation.
Another test suite to consider would be the Mago test suite. This is a desktop testing suite for Ubuntu. It makes use of accessibility technologies and so would be a decent additional test for AT-SPI D-Bus.
D-Bus method calls are much slower than CORBA method calls, and this adversely affects AT-SPI. This is mitigated by client-side caching of the accessible hierarchy and basic object properties in AT-SPI2. Recent versions of AT-SPI2 are significantly morer performant than older AT-SPI2 versions due to the core being reimplemented in C and the use of direct D-Bus connections between ATs and applications. Still, it is possible that performance might differ widely for some tasks between AT-SPI1 and AT-SPI2.
Qt Issues
The QtBridge used for making Qt apps accessible over AT-SPI D-Bus is being actively worked on but still needs work to be usable.
Cspi Issues
There is now a C-based AT-SPI binding, called libatspi. It is not compatible with the original CSPI library, so applications that used CSPI would need to be ported to the new library. For the medium term, a compatibility layer could be written to implement the old CSPI API on top of libatspi.
GAIL issues
GAIL should be fixed to emit children-changed events when, ie, packing a box (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=577392). Since at-spi2 caches children and states, a lack of events when these change will result in the cache not being updated.
User Testing
On top of the test suites AT-SPI D-Bus needs more user testing before release.
Installation and Packaging
In the last AT-SPI D-Bus sprint, there were a number of options added for installing AT-SPI D-Bus at the same time as AT-SPI corba. These compile time options changed how the different parts of AT-SPI D-Bus were installed so that they could safely be installed on-top of a standard distribution that included AT-SPI CORBA. These options have not been documented meaning that it is not obvious how to install the AT-SPI D-Bus releases. These installation options need to be documented.
Accessibility Bus
During the last sprint, a D-Bus bus was created specifically for accessibility. There is a script in Python that launches this bus. This was integrated with GNOME so that be bus would be launched on GNOME startup. This still needs some work. Currently the accessibility D-Bus bus does not participate in Gnome session management, which it should do. The registry daemon is launched automatically and does not necessarily need to participate with GNOME session management. Currently it does. The session management code will need moving to the D-Bus bus, but this will require that the Python wrapper is re-written in "C". This wrapper may be similar to the dbus-launch tool and could possibly be added to that.
Currently the releases are GNOME specific. Ideally it would be possible to use these releases with KDE.
AT-SPI D-Bus has been removed from the JHBuild system. It will need to be added back in for integration in to GNOME. TODO: Check this--I think that it is added in again. -MPG
The specifications for AT-SPI D-Bus have been specified in D-Bus XML with Qt extensions. This is because the Qt client bindings are the only ones that use it for automated code generation. Ideally the specifications would be written in such a way that other client or server side bindings could be generated using them.
atk-bridge location
Right now, the atk-bridge module is placed in the GTK+ modules directory. This was because at that moment, the main user of the atk-bridge were GTK+ applications, so place the module there made things easier. But atk-brigde is not a real GTK module. It doesn't have any GTK+ dependency. ATK is an abstract and toolkit independent API. Other toolkits has started to use it. As example Cally. In those cases, applications can't load the atk-bridge using the same GTK_MODULES approach, so (at this moment) it requires to load atk-bridge by hand. One of the main problems is locate where the module is. GTK+ knows were his modules would be placed, but this is not the case for other apps. atk-bridge should be located in a shared and common place, to be used for any toolkit (of course, no problem to keep atk-bridge on the gtk modules directory, to make easier their implementation). This problem was first mentioned the last August [1]. At this moment GNOME Shell has solved it supposing a gconf variable with the
direction of the atk-bridge. GNOME-Shell bug [2]. at-spi2 bug [3]

- [2] https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=612599
- [3] https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28580
AT-SPI D-Bus Specification
As well as the libraries using the AT-SPI D-Bus specification some work may still be required on the specification itself.
The D-Bus specification was originally written in Telepathy D-Bus XML, but the current code base has the Telepathy extensions removed. There is now a specification in an IDL-like language, but there are currently no tools to generate HTML documentation or C headers from this IDL.
- Either write scripts to convert the IDL into web-based documentation, or re-enable the Telepathy extensions and write an xst script to remove them in order to generate introspection data.
- Create new interfaces for management of large or infinite spaces.
Additional interfaces may be required for the management of accessible object life-cycle within infinite or very large containers. In the Bonobo / ORBit specification accessible objects were remotely reference counted and this was used as the method to manage their life-cycle within very large containers. Remote reference counting has been removed, meaning that new interfaces may be required.
The importance of this is possibly over-stated. Firefox exposes the entire DOM and does not have this problem. Open office exposes only the objects visible on-screen and therefore sidesteps this issue.
Multi-user accessibility
It is a requirement of the D-Bus AT-SPI system that applications running as other users, most importantly the root user, are made accessible on the desktop.
D-Bus does not have a multi-user bus, meaning some work will be required to make D-Bus AT-SPI work in the multi user case. D-Bus session busses are not, as sometimes imagined, per-X-session. The session bus is per-X-session, per-user. There has been some discussion about creating a "user bus" which may ultimately replace the current session bus. Such a user bus would likely meet the requirement of enabing accessibility of applications running as root in a user's session.
ATSPI D-Bus currently starts its own D-Bus daemon associated with the X session. This behavior could presumably be removed if the "user bus" is added into D-Bus.
This is the requirement to load a program remotely and have it accessible on the local desktop. The multi user work is a prerequisite for this. Possibly the best solution is to have an ICE transport for D-Bus.
There are three separate repositories for AT-SPI D-Bus. The 'Core' repository contains the D-Bus specification as well as the registry daemon and D-Bus helper libraries. The 'Atk' repository contains the AtkBridge library and the currently-broken cspi code, and the 'pyatspi2' repository contains pyatspi (the Python at-spi binding used by applications such as Accerciser and Orca).
The 'Core' repository can be downloaded by:
git clone git://git.gnome.org/at-spi2-core
The 'Atk' repository can be downloaded using git from:
git clone git://git.gnome.org/at-spi2-atk
The 'pyatspi2' repository can be downloaded using git from:
git clone git://git.gnome.org/pyatspi2
Libraries in the 'Atk' repository depend on the 'Core' libraries. The 'Core' software must be built and installed before attempting to build the 'Atk' libraries.
The libraries may generally be made using:
> ./autogen --prefix=prefix > make install
- The ATK Bridge will be loaded into every GTK application, possibly causing instability at this early stage.
Assume that when configuring the project:
libdir = /usr/local/lib pythondir = /usr/local/lib/python2.5/ libexecdir = /usr/local/libexec/
Then the registry daemon executable will be installed as:
The ATK Bridge library will be:
The registry daemon should be started automatically by the dbus daemon if atk-bridge or pyatspi request it.
To test:
> gcalctool --gtk-module=/usr/local/lib/gtk-2.0/modules/libatk-bridge.so & (Make an application accessible over D-Bus) > export PYTHONPATH=/usr/local/lib/python2.5/ (Ensure new pyatspi is found) > orca (Load an AT using pyatspi library)
dbus-monitor can be helpful for debugging AT-SPI. However, there are a couple of issues to be aware of. AT-SPI method calls are made over direct dbus connections when this is supported on the application side. This significantly improve performance, since messages no longer need to be routed through dbus-daemon, but it makes debugging with dbus-monitor more difficult. Direct dbus connections are enabled by default in at-spi2-atk when dbus-glib 0.90 or greater is available, but they can be disabled by passing --disable-p2p to configure. Libatspi will revert to using the dbus daemon if an application does not support direct connections (ie, if the call to GetApplicationBusAddress returns an error or an empty string). Additionally, when the accessibility bus is in use, it is necessary to point dbus-monitor to use it rather than the session bus. This can be done using a script such as the following:

It is possible to get Python backtraces using gdb. This can be useful when investigating crashes that happen within libatspi, for instance. For more information, visit http://wiki.python.org/moin/DebuggingWithGdb. It may help to rebuild python without optimizations (ie, CFLAGS=-g), since the symbols used by the gdb macros may otherwise be optimized out.
Due to its more aggressive use of caching, AT-SPI 2 is more sensitive to bugs in which toolkits fail to send events than AT-SPI 1. For AT-SPI 2.0.2 and later, there are methods to control the kinds of data that get cached (atspi_accessible_set_cache_mask for libatspi; setCacheMask for pyatspi). The following values can be specified:
- ATSPI_CACHE_NONE / pyatspi.cache.NONE
- ATSPI_CACHE_PARENT / pyatspi.cache.PARENT
- ATSPI_CACHE_CHILDREN | pyatspi.cache.CHILDREN
- ATSPI_CACHE_NAME | pyatspi.cache.NAME
- ATSPI_CACHE_DESCRIPTION | pyatspi.cache.DESCRIPTION
- ATSPI_CACHE_STATES | pyatspi.cache.STATES
- ATSPI_CACHE_ROLE | pyatspi.cache.ROLE
- ATSPI_CACHE_INTERFACES | pyatspi.cache.INTERFACES
- ATSPI_CACHE_ALL | pyatspi.cache.ALL
Note that these are bitflags and can be combined. Also, this method must be called on either the desktop (in which case it applies to all accessibles of all applications, unless it is overridden for an application) or an application's root accessible. Calling it on any other accessible has no effect. For instance, if an application has accessibles that can change their name without firing an event, then adding a line like the following into the application's Orca script's __init__ function might be useful:
app.setCacheMask(pyatspi.cache.ALL ^ pyatspi.cache.NAME)
Questions & Queries from Developers
- Andrés G. Aragoneses: Feedback from GNOME Hackfest 2008 (2008-10-17):
- One thing I learned in the summit as well is that there are still a bunch of important core parts of gnome that still use Bonobo (gconf for instance) even when there exist a dbus counterpart (gconf-dbus), which IIRC worked pretty well. Any insights about the reasons?
- Mark Doffman: Reply (2008-11-10)
- In the specific case of GConf there have been ongoing discussions about making wider ranging changes to the GConf library, and that this should go along with the D-Bus move. (See the DConf page). I haven't heard of any technical reasons why GConf has not moved to D-Bus. An implementation already exists and can be found on the Imendio page.
- Andrés G. Aragoneses: Feedback from GNOME Hackfest 2008 (2008-10-17):
- the vala&GObject-introspection topics where pretty interesting. I wonder if we should have used vala for at-spi-dbus (and prevent more memory leaks this way).
- Mark Doffman: Reply (2008-11-10)
- AT-SPI D-Bus could have used Vala for the ATK Bridge. This was initially adapted from the ORBit based 'C' version so a different programming language was not considered. The Vala D-Bus bindings are not completely stable, so extra work may have been required on the underlying tools.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Lynny86 This basket is beautiful. I use this basket to store craft supplies in my living room. It's a beautiful basket and it's nice that you can close it to hide the mess! February 16, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by DiannaH Love this trunk This is exactly what I was looking for. They are perfect sitting on top of my guest bedroom storage cabinets. The loop and button that holds the lid closed is hard to fasten, that's why I didn't give it 5 stars. But that does not affect the beautiful functionality of this trunk. And they are affordable. I am so pleased with this purchase! Thank you November 20, 2013

Constantly running for the loo? Recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs) may be to blame, according to a new study from the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine. Researchers found that women who'd had at least three urinary tract infections within a year needed to go sooner and averaged nearly twice as many pit stops as those who didn't get repeat infections. Over time, the inflammation and irritation from recurrent UTIs may make bladder nerves "so sensitive, they behave like there's an infection when there isn't," explains lead study author Lily Arya, MD, chief of urogynecology and reconstructive surgery at the university. If you've had three UTIs in the past year, Arya suggests seeing a urogynecologist or urologist to make sure your infections aren't being caused by polyps or stones in the bladder or kidneys. Prevent further flare-ups by consuming four to six ounces of cranberry juice daily (any more irritates the bladder) and urinating post-sex to flush bacteria from the urethra and bladder.

"TownShift: Suburb Into City" sponsored by the City of Surrey was a sustainable design competition to provide vision for Surrey's five growing town centres – Cloverdale, Fleetwood, Guildford, Newton and Semiahmoo.
The competition attracted 138 submissions from 20 countries, and 27 finalists were selected by the five-member TownShift jury.
Renate Solivar of Vancouver took the overall top prize of $15,000 for his entry "Return of Ritual" which proposes structuring a new bold, brightly coloured construction along 152nd Street in front of Guildford Mall. In addition to the $15,000 first prize, his entry also won $10,000 for first prize in the Guildford category, for total winnings of $25,000.
All 27 have been on public display at Simon Fraser University (SFU) Surrey Central City for the past three weeks, and will remain on display until Feb 28th, the closing day of the 2010 Olympic Winter Games.
The next steps in taking new ideas and making them into reality will be explored at a special panel discussion entitled "Where Do We Go From Here?" at Kwantlen Polytechnic University's main Surrey Campus on Monday, March 29, 2010 at 7:00PM.

Rated 2.3 out of 5 by 8 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5 by Robarrght Very happy with our chair for 2 years and growing I bought my daughter this chair for Christmas in 2013. I've only oiled it once so far and am about to treat it again. It is still in great shape and is one of my high schooler's favorite places to read. We love it. April 19, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by kayceelove awesome chair!!!!!! in love i love this chair i have only had it for a about 2 weeks no problems so far. i did read some of the reviews about oiling the chair i need to look into that but overall in love with chair and definitely recommend this chair and for the price. October 8, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by MmmChair Gotta Care for your Rattan... Or it'll split... I read some of the negative reviews on here and figured I should make a review of my own... have owned a few papasan chairs and a few other "wicker or rattan" items I figured I might shed a little light on this item. Rattan or Wicker needs to be OILED. If you don't it becomes VERY VERY brittle and will either break or split. If you looked at the care instructions you need to oil it quite often. This will keep it from splitting or cracking. Depending on your climate it could be as much as once a month. Sounds like a lot of work but it isn't. I use BOILED linseed oil. I put it in a spray bottle and just spray these down... then wipe it off after a couple minutes takes barely any time at all. But yeah all the negative reviews I'm sure they didn't oil their chair!!

Rated 2 out of 5 by MandK Not made to last My husband and I purchased 2 of these frames not even 6 months ago and one has already shredded and the other has had to be re-nailed several times. We are very upset, as we hoped these would last much longer, considering the cost. January 27, 2013
Rated 1 out of 5 by Herzog22 Very disappointed I bought this chair in January. It's already broken. It did not come with care instructions. The chair is beautiful but fragile. March 28, 2015
Rated 1 out of 5 by Lolita5 Didn't even last 2 months My boyfriend and I have had this chair for less than 2 months, rarely use it, and both weigh less than 150lbs. It has already broken in 2 spots, and doesn't balance in its base no matter how you rotate it. I am very disappointed in the non-existent life span of this chair. Definitely would not recommend. July 8, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by Ngirotra Disappointed!! Bought this month and a half back and we already have pieces falling off the base!! I weigh 130 ponds and we hardly use it now cause of the fear of it crumbling to the floor. Extremely disappointed with this buy as its not cheap. I don't know how i missed the reviews on this one. There was NO care instructions given with this we just carried it out. DO NOT buy this. March 10, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by wbeta001 Poor quality and craftmaship The frame is not built to last, I boought it less than six months ago and the frame broke at least six times. I am not heavy at all, I am 165 lbs and it still broke. I saw the frame and I found out that it broke where they nailed the thinner frame pieces to the rest of the structure. See pictures attached.

Rated 4 out of 5 by 1 reviewer.
Rated 4 out of 5 by ChelseaLynn Good for an Instant To start I'm usually not a soup person, but this was actually pretty good. Very interesting because I never had anything with a soy base before which gave it a really good flavor. The only thing missing for me personally was some sort of solid like a meat or seafood which would of made it even better. Although I'm sure this is no where near the real thing, but this has to be a good substitute. Also one little pack makes at least a average bowl of soup from a can which surprised me due to it being just a powder. April 24, 2014

ZF-7765: Zend_Rest_Route maps actions, but not request methods.
Zend_Rest_Route maps REST actions to request, bases on "_server" hidden field/X-HTTP-Method-Override, but not request methods. In that case, Zend_Controller_Request_Http::isPut() and Zend_Controller_Request_Http::isDelete() methods will return false.
Also, Zend_Rest_Route doesn't map a DELETE request method, so deleteAction() will never be invoked.
There are several solutions to solve this issue. First is a 'dirty' patch for Zend_Rest_Route, second patch is both for Zend_Rest_Route and Zend_Controller_Request_Http.
I can provide these patches.
I have not experienced this at all. I've been using Dojo's JsonRestStore with Zend_Rest_Route extensively, and all PUT and DELETE requests are routed accordingly; the X-HTTP-Method-Override header is not present in these requests, either, indicating that the routing is being done exclusively based on the actual request method (as it should).
Can you provide some example code that displays the issue?
Sorry, my bad - i just noticed DELETE-actions works fine, but only if uses with _method field :
$this->addElement('hidden', '_method', array(
'value' => 'delete',
I also found Zend_Form handles PUT/DELETE as GET methods. Is it a bug, or feature? Need i create a new ticket for this?
I mean, maybe will be better for Zend_Form to check setted method and add a hidden '_method' field automatically? In other case i don't see a point why PUT/DELETE methods were added to Zend_Form.
I don't know much about how Zend_Form works, but it's something we could/should investigate to make sure the two components work well together.
Luke, as i found since 1.9 in Zend_Form was implemented new request methods, PUT and DELETE, for REST complatiblity. As i guess, when using this request methods, Zend_Form should generate additional hidden field named '_method' with related value for route matching. Also, Zend_Form should always set POST request method in rendered HTML for REST method tunneling. In fact, Zend_Form doesn't fulfill it.
I think it can be repaired in two ways: 1. Additional form decorator(no matter if it will work even without REST routing enabled). 2. Rewriting of Zend_Form_Decorator_Form.
So it sounds like this one is a problem in Zend_Form, not Zend_Rest_Route ? Is there a Zend_Form ticket to which I can associate this one, and then mark this one as duplicate?
thanks, -L
Good day, Luke. Thank you for help with ZF-7771. Yes, i created a ticket: ZF-7791.
Quick info : W3C's HTML 5 provide a text for adding PUT and DELETE capabilities to
form> elements More infos can be found here : http://w3.org/TR/html5/…
Bulk change of all issues last updated before 1st January 2010 as "Won't Fix".
Feel free to re-open and provide a patch if you want to fix this issue.

In All Humility
from Keith Mathison Jun 15, 2010 Category: ArticlesI face something of a dilemma here that I believe C. J. Mahaney might appreciate. He has written a wonderful book in which he seeks to share insight on the practice of true humility and the conquest of pride. However, as he and all authors know, a glowing book review is a great temptation to pride for any author. I've read and (hopefully) benefited from his book on humility, but I wonder how to write a positive review without encouraging pride in the book's author -- in case he reads the review. Therein lies the dilemma. In order to avoid this conundrum, and to encourage humility in the author, it may be best to begin by pointing out what I believe to be the major flaw in the book...

Holy, Holy, Holy: Proclaiming the Perfections of God - New from Reformation Trust
from Deborah Finnamore Jun 14, 2010 Category: Reformation TrustTragically, the holiness of God has been obscured in our time, and as a result, the church's doctrine and ethics have been tarnished, entertainment has replaced worship in many places, the gospel is misunderstood and neglected, and the church assimilates itself to the culture instead of seeking to transform it through the preaching of God's Word. Holy, Holy, Holy: Proclaiming the Perfections of God is adapted from the addresses at the 2009 Ligonier Ministries National Conference. It unfolds the character of God and the holiness that sets Him apart. Here is high theology in understandable language, bringing deeper knowledge of God and promoting love for Him. Keep Reading
Repentance and Reformation
from R.C. Sproul Jr. Jun 14, 2010 Category: Tabletalk MagazineThe Protestant Reformation is called the Reformation for a good reason. It is not called the First Reformation or Reformation II, as if they happen every so often. I have never been asked, when referencing the Reformation, "Of which Reformation do you speak?" Renewals? Of course. Revivals? Who could doubt it? There has been only one Reformation, precisely because they are rather hard to come by. Those of us who long for another, then, might be wise to search out that spark that started the Reformation. Where did it all begin? Was it with Martin Luther's stirring speech at the Diet of Worms, his firm resolve to stand on the Word of God? Perhaps. Did it start earlier, in Luther's study, as he exegeted key texts on justification? Maybe.
