ZF-6686: Zend_Service_Amazon_S3 doesn't support ssl
The Amazon S3 url is hard-coded with the "http:" scheme:
const S3_ENDPOINT = 'http://s3.amazonaws.com';
Line 356 of the method "_makeRequest" sets the uri of the Zend_Http_Client object as a string:
The setUri method of Zend_Http_Client can accept a string or a Zend_Uri_Http object. If instead of a string, the uri above were an instance of Zend_Uri_Http, then the uri and scheme (http or https) could be set in Zend_Uri_Http's constructor. So Zend_Service_Amazon_S3 could allow a setter for protocol scheme and/or constructor flag.
This is all assuming that there are no other barriers to using Zend_Http_Client and ssl with Amazon S3.
Assigning to Stas.
Fixed, thanks

ZF-4394: Zend_Validate_File_Size: Error message template variables
In Zend_Validate_File_Size I reckon it'd be great if _throw was setting _min and _max to the respective values of the getMin() and getMax() methods. Since both methods call _toByteString it would result in friendlier error messages when they make use of the %min and %max placeholders.
I would also suggest breaking the loop in _toByteString when $size >= 1024 (instead of $size > 1024), 1MB is imo more user friendly than 1024kB.
Also in isValid() there is $this->_setValue($size) which sets %value to a file size. It is a bit confusing since the default error messages more or less treat %value as a file name. Even though it's overwritten in _throw when $files is set it might surprise some people that use this validator manually. (Zend_Validate_File_FileSize and Zend_Validate_File_ImageSize also do something similar).
Last suggestion, maybe a %size placeholder set to the actual size of the tested file could be useful to some people.
Fixed with r11536
Hi Thomas, thanks for implementing my suggestions; you left one out though and because you didn't comment on it I reopen the issue in case it wasn't intentional.
Here is the message currently output by the validator: "Maximum allowed size for file 'test.doc' is '1048576' but '4615933' detected."
I'd say the following message would be much more friendly to the average user: "Maximum allowed size for file 'test.doc' is '1MB' but '4.4MB' detected"
Replacing the numeric values for _min, _max and _size by their string counterparts could be achieved in _throw, systematically or conditionally depending on a Boolean value given as a parameter of the constructor.
This was not implemented for clearification of value. When both values are nearly the same the difference would not be visible.
When you have the limit with 1048576 and the file with 1048577 the resulting message would be "Maximum allowed size for file 'test.doc' is '1MB' but '1MB' detected."
Not really what we want :-)
I see your point, but I'm not sure the benefit of displaying the full numeric value outweighs the disadvantages.
First because for most non-technical people 1048576 is nothing more than a scary 7 figures number.
Also because a lot of programmers will use custom messages which won't necessarily display both values, in which case they won't have this issue and will probably enjoy being able to customize the format of their values. The Boolean parameter for the constructor could be a good way to implement this, leaving it to the programmers to decide what they want.
I can also think of two workarounds to the issue you mentioned when both values are displayed:
Changing the precision until the values differ, for example: "Maximum allowed size for file 'test.doc' is '1MB' but '1.001MB' detected." I believe it is an acceptable solution assuming that a difference of only a few bytes isn't the most common case.
More simple to implement: changing the wording so that it suggests that the displayed value is indicative and not a precise value. "Maximum allowed size for file 'test.doc' is '1MB' but slightly more than '1MB' detected."
Fixed with r11565

West Coast Premiere of JACKIE O!
Feb. 28, Mar. 6, 13 7:30 pm
College of Marin's performing arts department presents the West Coast Premier of Jackie O! A ninety-minute chamber opera in two acts composed by Michael Daughtery to a libretto by Wayne Koestenbaum. The production will be directed by James Dunn, with musical direction by Paul Smith, and choreography by Sandra Tanner.
Jackie O is a musical happening that takes us back to a 1960s fantasy gathering at Andy Warhol's New York Studio, The Factory, where we learn more about Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis through the imagined eyes of Elizabeth Taylor, Princess Grace, Maria Callas and others.
"The most musically satisfying current-events opera since Nixon in China"

Cherry wood touchstones and a search for meaning…
I like to think that I'm pretty well adapted to the fast-paced, whirling world of digital realities …and yes, digital illusions, too. But I have noticed that at my core I am still very much a child of analog loves.
I love stories, spoken aloud, for the glimpses they offer into the souls that tell them and for the life insights gleaned from those people, objects and events they describe, but also for the sounds of breath being drawn into an intentional body, then passed back into the world over lips and teeth, and tongue, air reshaped into complex and beautiful meanings.
I love things that I can touch, smell, taste, lean against.
That cold wind blowing in my face and down my neck when I stand on a wintery beach, that is analog. There are no ones and zeroes chained together in some particular order to provide me the illusions of cold and motion, and that briny, olfactory soup of life, death and iodine. There is just that moment …utterly analog and alive.
These wooden plates are as analog as it gets, stories told by the imagination and skilled hands, the carefully trained fingers of a real life magician living in the woods of northern Vermont. David Brown is a man that I am pleased to know as a friend, a calm, intentional intelligence and force for good. He is a photographer, a masterful bread baker, a carpenter, a birder, a gardener, a canoeist, an adventurer, storyteller, woodsman, husband, fly fisherman and good listener. He is an artist.
I have walked parts of David's Vermont woods, stood beside him while craning our necks and standing on tiptoe, searching for telling glimpses of elusive songbirds high in leafy hardwood trees within the yet dim, early morning cool. I have taken turns casting flies to aggressive smallmouth bass from the front of his canoe while mist floated along the water's surface and loons inadvertently serenaded us while courting each other.
I have eaten on plates very much like these at his table and learned of the simple and refreshing magic of rhubarb juice while sitting in the shade of the house that he built with his wife and his own weathered hands.
If this sounds like a love story of sorts …perhaps it is.
David's was the first of many kind faces that greeted me when I arrived a few years back at Sterling College, eager to immerse myself within the hopeful unknown that was that year's Wildbranch Writers Workshop, a soulful collaboration between Sterling College and Orion Magazine. David, you see, in addition to all of those other things listed above, is also the director of this esteemed workshop, and as soon as he grinned that elvish grin, stepped toward my car and addressed me by name I felt an immediate kinship. He had gone to the trouble to learn about me before actually meeting me. What a wonderful, calming gift.
I've called upon too many words already and might just as well have let the artistry of these wooden creations speak for themselves, though I feared that in this rush-rush digital world, without the ability to actually run your analog fingers along the tactile, analog edges of these cherry wood wonders you might have missed much of the backstory that these plates bring with them, having travelled so recently westward.
I swear you can feel the man's heart in these beautiful things he makes.
That too is analog. Definitely analog. And big and wise, and generous.
To learn more about David Brown and the wondrous things he makes:
David W. Brown: Woodworking Fine and Fussy. Specializing in wooden bowls, plates and platters of local hardwoods. PO Box 15, Craftsbury Common, VT 05827. He takes custom orders, you know.
Thank you Mary, for listening and seeing so wisely, for seeking out this magician from Vermont to help feed this ache within for an analog table within an ever more digital maze of days.

NFLN's Adam Shefter is reporting that the Raiders have called a news conference for this afternoon. ESPN's Chris Mortenson is reporting that Lane Kiffin will be fired there. When I return from my work out of the office today I am sure this will all be clear and make sense. Cause Mort's been right every week on this, right?
In all seriousness the writing has been o nthe wall for weeks and interviewing folks while the guy you are replacing is still there is a sign that ESPN will be proven right on this. But with Crazy Al Davis, who knows?
Somehow Al will claim 'insubordination' and not pay Kiff and I hope Kiffin sues him because Davis has been about as classy as a fifty cent hooker on this one.
Fire the man or don't but enough with making up lame lies to not have to pay him. Anyone who works for this franchise has been warned what a badly managed, run and cheap franchise it is. Good luck to the next sucker – I mean coach.

Nothing can fulfill the defining barbecue trifecta of smoky, sweet, and tangy quite like ribs. Which is why I think they're a must-have on any menu for the second biggest cookout day of the year—Memorial Day. Last summer I worked on perfecting the standard sweet and sticky rib, but now I have something new that captures everything you'd want in a rib with a bit of a twist in these balsamic-glazed baby back ribs.
A rub that features a trio of peppercorns—white, black, and Szechuan—coats racks of baby backs, which are then cooked low and slow over cherry wood, in either a smoker or grill. A brushing of balsamic barbecue sauce in the last half hour leaves the ribs with a glistening sheen.
They may look like everyday ribs, but the balsamic makes a pronounced difference, thanks to a distinctive acidity that melds well with the sugars and peppers in the rub. Combine this with the tender and smoky meat, and you have everything you could wish for in backyard barbecue, making them a great way to kick-off of this grilling season.
About the author: Joshua Bousel brings you new, tasty condiment each Wednesday and a recipe for weekend grilling every Friday. He also writes about grilling and barbecue on his blog The Meatwave whenever he can be pulled away from his grill.

If you walk, you can snowshoe. Snowshoeing is, after all, simply walking on snow on look-alike tennis rackets.
Simply put, snowshoeing is easy, which is what makes it so appealing to such a wide range of individuals. Adults and kids can walk on snow, and in the winter Utah is a recreational playground. There are an unlimited number of snowshoeing opportunities across a good portion of the state—thousands of miles of groomed trails and many more on unpacked, untouched backcountry snow.
Once a required tool for survival in snow country, snowshoes have become equipment for recreation, fitness and sport. Participants can take a leisurely stroll, a challenging aerobic hike or compete against one another.
Early shoes consisted of a wood frame and rawhide webbing with leather straps to hold the foot to the snowshoe. They were all one basic design: wide, bulky, hard to get on and off, and they made walking a challenge. But they did make it possible to travel over deep snow, which was vital to survival.
New snowshoes are made of lightweight metal tubing, plastic webbing and easy-in/out bindings. Metal tubing makes it possible to produce snowshoes of many shapes, sizes and colors. Some are designed specifically for men, women or children. Others are made for deep snow, packed snow or running on a harder surfaces.

For close to three decades, acclaimed Canadian singer Joëlle Rabu has wowed audiences throughout 5 continents with her portrayal of the legendary French chanteuse Edith Piaf. Rabu returns to The Palm Cabaret on Dec. 19 at 8pm with "Encore Piaf…and more," her European cabaret style show performing songs from the torch-music era with a stage presence that has been described as passionate, electric and engaging. Accompanied by award-winning pianist Nico Rhodes, these two musical forces combine theatricality and musicality into an evening of pure entertainment.
Joëlle Rabu made her debut at City Stage in April, 1983. She found herself caught up in a whirlwind of publicity and praise. A casual remark by her brother was the first link in the chain of events that was to propel her from waitress to the stage. The late Ray Michal, director of Vancouver's City Stage, had expressed his desire to remount his original play, 'Piaf, Her Songs, Her Loves', but was frustrated in his search for a bilingual singer/actress dynamic enough to play this special role. An audition was arranged and Joëlle sang a few Piaf songs, tunes she knew well from her French upbringing.
Within a month, an incredulous Joëlle began rehearsals. Her transformation from unknown waitress to singing star caught the attention of the media and her thrilling voice and presence won the hearts of all that heard her sing. Audience demand extended 'Piaf' past its initial six week run for month after month. "A star is born" was the unanimous consensus of the media and public. The show finally closed on its first anniversary after more than 500 performances, which won her two Jessie Awards and established her reputation as a chanteuse extraordinaire.
Joëlle Rabu's success in 'PIAF' gave her recognition throughout the Canada and after that initial year at Vancouver's City Stage, portraying this French songstress, Joëlle pursued her acting career. She adds to her theatre credits, roles in CABARET; GOODNIGHT DISGRACE; IRMA LA DOUCE; DON MESSER'S JUBILEE; LIES AND LEGENDS, THE MUSICAL STORIES OF HARRY CHAPIN; RATS THE MUSICAL; MARION BRIDGE; ANYTHING GOES; MURDER ON THE NILE and A COUNTRYSIDE CHRISTMAS. She wrote and toured her new TONIGHT…PIAF show and her concert of original songs across 5 continents; recorded 5 albums (one of which was nominated for a JUNO); performed with the Peking Pops Orchestra, Russian Children's Choir and the late Danny Kaye at EXPO; did a command performance for the Duke and Duchess of York; played with Symphony Orchestras across Canada and in the States; was awarded Nanaimo's Excellence in the Arts Cultural Award and won a BC Touring Artist of the Year award.
After decades of touring and recording, Joëlle decided to take a step away from the hectic performance demands. She launched into different projects that included writing, directing and producing shows, which also enabled her to be closer to home to look after her parents during their final years. Not wanting to be solely defined as a performer, she also ventured back to her roots of the hospitality industry during the summers, managing a friend's floating lodge in BC's rugged Nootka Sound. She now spends her time between her Island home in Nanaimo performing from time to time at various events and theatre shows that intrigue her, and the other half of the time she spends at her other passion and on her second Island home of Haida Gwaii, where she's embarked on a Cultural Tourism project for the Haida Nation.
This step away from constant performing has also enabled Joëlle to witness her 22-year old son, Nico Rhodes, forge his own career path in the music industry. An accomplished pianist and saxophonist; arranger, composer and award-winning jazz musician, Nico is rapidly becoming one of Vancouver's most desired music directors for live theatre productions. Nico has been fortunate to find himself in myriad musical settings from teaching music in Kenya to performing with various R&B bands, singer songwriters and his own jazz-fusion trio "Project Walrus". Recently Nico music-directed Canadian productions of: A CLOSER WALK WITH PATSY CLINE; OH WHAT A LOVELY WAR; A COUNTRYSIDE CHRISTMAS; and ALL SHOOK UP, and his next musical theatre project is SOME ENCHANTED EVENING in West Vancouver.
Invited for a return engagement to Mexico, Joëlle and Nico have teamed up 'encore' for an intimate evening of song at Vallarta's Palm Cabaret and Bar on Dec 19-22, 2012 at 8pm. Whether performing their own renditions of timeless classics, French cabaret torch songs or playing off each other in a fun mother-son improvised mêlée of melodies; Joëlle and Nico bring a fresh sound to some old tunes and some old soul to some new ones.
The Palm is located at Olas Altas 508 in Emiliano Zapata. The Box Office opens 2 hours before show time. You can also find the Palm on Facebook at The Palm Cabaret and Bar.

Friel Court at Beasley Coliseum
View Larger Map
Friel Court, located in the Beasley Performing Arts Coliseum, has been the home of men's basketball since 1973 and women's basketball since 1996.
The arena was formally dedicated in honor of long-time Washington State Basketball Coach Jack Friel, who guided the Cougars to the 1941 NCAA title game. In the spring of 1981, the coliseum was named in honor of former Washington State Executive Vice-president Wallis Beasley.
The most recent addition to the venerable facility is a sparkling parquet floor, which was laid down during the 2000 season. The new surface replaced the old maple floor that had been in place since the 1983-84 season.
Since the Cougar men christened Friel Court with an 80-78 victory over Louisiana State in 1973, more than 1.8 million fans have gone through the gates of the Coliseum. During that span, the men's squad compiled a 45-game non-conference home winning streak that lasted nearly a decade and won 65% of the games played at the 12,058 seat venue, including a perfect 14-0 mark in 1983. That same year, 12,422 fans watched WSU upset UCLA 70-68, which is still the largest crowd in Friel Court history.
In addition to men's and women's Cougar basketball, Friel Court hosted first and second round NCAA West Regionals in 1975, 1982, and 1985, an NBA exhibition game between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Portland Trailblazers, and Washington State University commencement every year since 1973.
The addition of the center-hung scoreboard in Beasley Coliseum was completed use in the 2011-12 season.
The new center-hung display features four LED video displays, each measuring 11 feet high by 15 feet wide.

News item from 2012
Ashmolean Museum wins prize for Education and Awareness in the European Union Prize for Cultural Heritage / Europa Nostra Awards 2012
On 20 March The European Union Prize for Cultural Heritage / Europa Nostra Awards 2012 awarded the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, a prize for Education and Awareness.
The prize has been attributed to the Ashmolean's innovative display strategy Crossing Cultures. As part of the Museum's transformational redevelopment, which opened in 2009, the Ashmolean devised the new concept for interpreting the collections. Crossing Cultures emphasises the importance of cultural contacts. Based on the idea that objects can be understood in many different contexts, from their conventional historical settings to cross-culturally as objects with universal functions, the strategy aims to stimulate an enquiring and reflective attitude towards the cultures and civilisations that have shaped the world in which we live.
"We are delighted to have won this prestigious prize for our interpretation strategy Crossing Cultures and we very much hope to be shortlisted as one of the laureates in June. Crossing Cultures is a new approach for the museum world, which has transformed the way in which the Ashmolean's remarkable collection is experienced and understood by visitors, providing the objects with a thought-provoking narrative. Since the new Ashmolean opened in 2009, our visitors have quadrupled to 1 million each year and we now receive the highest visitor numbers of any free museum or gallery outside of London. This is a great sign of the success of the new ways in which we present the University of Oxford's renowned collection of art and archaeology to a growing international audience", said Dr Christopher Brown CBE, Director, Ashmolean Museum.
Of the 28 winning projects from 15 different European countries, 6 will be named as 'grand prix' laureates as 2012's most outstanding heritage achievements at the awards ceremony on 1 June.
The awards ceremony will take place at the Jerónimos Monastery in Lisbon in the presence of Androulla Vassiliou, European Commissioner for Education, Culture, Multilingualism and Youth, and Plácido Domingo, the world-renowned tenor and President of Europa Nostra. The event is under the patronage of Aníbal Cavaco Silva, President of Portugal, who will also be present, and José Manuel Barroso, President of the Commission.
"Europe's cultural heritage is unique in the world. T he European Union Prize for Cultural Heritage highlights excellence in conservation, research, education, training and awareness raising, as well as dedicated service by individuals and groups. I would like to warmly congratulate this year's winners for reminding us of our wonderfully rich and varied heritage that we should never take for granted. It is in our trust for future generations," said Commissioner Vassiliou.
"I am very pleased that the European Commission is once again Europa Nostra's partner in celebrating outstanding work in the field of cultural heritage. I also wish to congratulate the Commission for having confirmed its commitment to supporting our shared objectives through the proposed 'Creative Europe' programme. European funding is vital: it boosts creativity and innovation, which helps us to bring our past alive and to safeguard our treasures for the future," added Europa Nostra's President, Plácido Domingo.
Notes to Editors:
The Ashmolean Museum
Founded in 1683, the Ashmolean Museum is the most significant museum of art and archaeology in the heart of Britain, and the oldest university museum in the world. Its collections are large, rich and unusually diverse, ranging from archaeology to fine and decorative arts, and from numismatics to casts of classical sculpture from the great museums of Europe, tell the story of civilisation and the aspirations of mankind from Nineveh and ancient Egypt, to the Renaissance, right up to the triumphs of twentieth century Europe. In 2009 it reopened following a £61 million redevelopment. The award-winning building, designed by Rick Mather Architects, houses 39 new galleries, including the new special exhibition galleries, a dedicated Education Centre, state-of-the-art conservation studios, and Oxford's first roof-top restaurant. In 2011 the Museum opened 6 new galleries of Ancient Egypt and Nubia, following a second phase of redevelopment. Admission to the Museum is free. For more information visit: www.ashmolean.org
Europa Nostra is a pan-European NGO which acts as the voice of cultural heritage. It brings together and represents 250 non-governmental and non-profit organisations from more than 50 European countries, with a combined membership of at least 5 million citizens. It also counts on the support of over 150 associate public authorities and corporations and more than 1500 individual members. Its vast network of professionals and volunteers is committed to safeguarding Europe's cultural heritage for present and future generations.
The 28 winners were selected from among 226 submitted projects from 31 countries. The awards are split into four categories – conservation, research, dedicated service, and education, training and awareness-raising. Each category has its own specialist jury, composed of independent experts from across Europe. All the winners receive a plaque or trophy. The six 'grand prix' winners also receive €10,000 each. The 2012 European Union Prize for Cultural Heritage / Europa Nostra Awards ceremony in Lisbon on 1 June is part of Europa Nostra's annual European Heritage Congress.

If you want to learn your way around Windows Vista, this demo is a good place to start. You'll discover the basics of using the Start menu, the taskbar, the desktop, and Windows Sidebar. These four areas help you access and interact with your programs, files, and folders.
Windows Vista has four main areas that help you access and interact with your programs, files, and folders: the Start menu, the taskbar, the desktop, and Windows Sidebar. Let's look at how you can use each one.
The Start button is the best place to begin. You click it to open the Start menu, which gives you access to your programs, files, and folders. This area shows programs you commonly use. You can click any program to open it. This area provides access to frequently used folders, settings, and features. Here, you can get to files you've recently opened. And this is where you go to turn off or lock your computer.
To see a complete list of the programs installed on your computer, you click All Programs. And to find programs and files, you can type a search term here.
Let's search for WordPad. It's a basic word processing program. The search results appear above the Search box. You click a result to open it. Notice how the program displays here on your desktop. This is called a window. You can have several programs running at once, and each one will display in its own window. So let's open another program.
Notice how each program is represented by its own button on the taskbar. You can click these buttons to switch from one program to another. To make a program fill the entire screen, you click this button to maximize it. To restore the window to normal size, you click the button again.
To hide a program while you work on something else, you click this button to minimize it. The program disappears from the desktop, but it's still running. Notice that it still has a button on the taskbar. To show the program again, you click its taskbar button.
When you're done using a program, you click the Close button in its window. Notice how the programs disappear from both the desktop and the taskbar.
Windows Sidebar is a place that holds small programs called gadgets, which put information and tools at your fingertips. A few gadgets appear on Sidebar by default. You can change any gadget's settings by pointing to it, and then clicking this button. Let's change the appearance of the Clock.
You can also add new gadgets to Sidebar. You click here to see the gadgets installed on your computer. Then double-click the gadget you want to add…like this. If you want, you can drag a gadget to the desktop and use it there.
Now you know the basics of using the Start menu, desktop, taskbar, and Sidebar.

Research Projects
Probabilistic Inference with Unknown Objects
Stuart J. Russell, Rodrigo de Salvo Braz and Nimar S Arora
Probabilistic inference is a major area in artificial intelligence today, but most current approaches limit themselves to propositional models, that is, to establishing distributions on individual facts (or propositions) rather than on classes of facts with different truth values depending on the objects they apply to. This has two major disadvantages: it forces us to create much larger models (by repeating dependencies for each of a fact's instances), and it makes writing those models much harder due to their limited expressivity. BLOG (Bayesian Logic) is a language for writing probabilistic models with first-order expressivity. Distributions can be defined on classes of propositions parameterized by the objects they apply to. For example, while a propositional approach can model a dependency such as P(colleagues | friends) = 0.6, a first-order approach can express P(colleagues(X,Y) | friends(X,Y)) = 0.6, which makes it possible to track multiple relationships of the same type at the same time. Every well-formed BLOG program defines a unique probability distribution over possible worlds. We have implemented inference algorithms that are provably complete for all well-formed programs. Unlike other approaches to this problem, BLOG does not assume a fixed number of known objects in the world. Instead, the population and its size are another random component with its own distribution. This allows BLOG to adapt to and infer the set of objects present in different situations. Our current aim in the project is to apply BLOG to several practical domains such as citation matching and activity recognition. These domains guide us in the development of faster inference algorithms as well as expansions such as DBLOG, which involve probabilistic reasoning over sequences of states (analogous to Dynamic Bayesian Networks, but with first-order capability). Another important application is to global seismic monitoring for the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty, under a contract with the United Nations. Our work on this project is highlighted in a recent article in New Scientist (1/29/11).

At my last job I had a wonderful perk: Free membership in an expensive, upscale health club and spa that was open 24 hours a day. When I left that job, I stopped going to the fitness center and joined a more downscale gym that stayed open only until 8 p.m. on weeknights and 4 p.m. on weekends.
But guess what? I've never been fitter.
Because the plush health club never closed, I rarely went. Every day I would tell myself, "I can get there later" — until later became too late, especially when I'd settled in for the evening. With the new gym, there's no procrastinating. I have to get there at least an hour before the doors close. Going to the gym has now become a priority.
My new, no-frills gym has proved to be an invaluable gift. If I sound like a Pollyanna, so be it — I happen to be one of her biggest disciples. She was a positive thinker who was definitely ahead of her time.
I didn't always feel this way. Like most people, I considered Pollyanna a pejorative word used to describe someone whose cheerfulness gets under your skin. Webster's describes a Pollyanna as "a person characterized by irrepressible optimism."
In other words, an unctuous bore.
Even the Gershwin brothers couldn't resist taking aim at her in their cynical love song, "But Not for Me":
Who tell you fate supplies a mate
It's all bananas.
Sorry, George and Ira, but Pollyanna isn't all bananas. There are plenty of studies showing that being optimistic not only makes people happier, it makes them healthier. Optimism is one of the most common traits among long-lived people.
My Pollyanna conversion came just weeks after 9/11, when the world looked particularly bleak. I was doing an interview with Dr. Daniel G. Amen, the California neuropsychiatrist who wrote the bestselling Change Your Brain, Change Your Life. Amen is known for looking on the bright side of life by getting rid of our ANTS — "automatic negative thoughts."
"How," I asked him, "can one live his or her life in a positive, upbeat manner without appearing Pollyannish?"
"What's wrong with that?" he replied. "I tell all of my patients to read Pollyanna or rent the movie. It's worth at least three visits to my office."
Really? I was taken aback.

Charles Barkley might be singing "I may be wrong" soon.
After one of the busiest NBA trade deadlines in history, the Boston Celtics traded away one of the critical pieces to its 2008 NBA championship team in big man Kendrick Perkins. Kendrick Perkins and spark plug Nate Robinson were dealt to the Oklahoma City Thunder and got Jeff Green and Nenad Krstic in return.
The Orlando Magic will play the new and likely improved young Thunder Friday at the Amway Center.
During the NBA pre-game show on TNT, host Ernie Johnson asked his panel of experts, including David Aldridge, Kevin McHale, Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley about the trades and Barkley had this response in regards to the Kendrick Perkins trade.
"I think I was very surprised, but you know what? It was a good trade for the Celtics considering if they wasn't going to be able to resign the guy," TNT analyst Charles Barkley said. "And if you look at, they only need Perkins against the Lakers if they get to the finals. They gonna have a tougher time getting through Chicago and Miami. Perkins wouldn't have been a real big factor in that series. So if you're gonna lose a guy…they got the best deal they could under the circumstances."
Kenny Smith and David Aldridge disagreed saying the Celtics potentially traded away a chance at winning an NBA championship.
"I'm not so sure I agree with that," Aldridge said in response to Barkley's perspective. "This is not a young team, this is an old team. An old team with limited chances to win an NBA championship. They don't have a window of about 8 years, they have a window of about two years. Kendrick Perkins helps them win a championship, he helped them win one in '08. Maybe they couldn't have signed him, but deal with that in July after you win a championship."
So who do you agree with?

Historic district clears another hurdle in long road to reality
Published: Saturday, August 31, 2013 at 12:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, August 30, 2013 at 11:56 a.m.
The implementation of the Park Place Historical District moved a step closer Monday when the Lexington City Council participated in a workshop on the district with other groups. The effort to create the district has entered its eighth year, but the council will soon hold a public hearing and then make a decision on the district, with a boundary of South State to West Center streets and West Third to South Payne streets.
Supporters of the district believe changes in the plan have mollified many early opponents, and misinformation can be blamed for some resistance. They're correct in saying residents have received many opportunities to voice their opinion, but at least some residents continue to show their opposition, judging from signs they have erected. Backers can make several legitimate arguments that preserving the area's historic character is important, and the district offers the best chance to do that. Sometimes elected officials must make decisions that not everyone supports, but they need to be able to articulate the reasons for their votes. The council members have a few more weeks to do just that, as the comments at the workshop indicated the district will almost certainly pass.
The same week in which the state reported Davidson County has 7,404 unemployed people came some good news and some potential good news for the work force. Unilin Flooring announced its adding 14 jobs at its Denton Road plant in Thomasville, which reopened in April. Davidson County commissioners set a public hearing on offering incentives to a company that would create 72 jobs. It will take a combination of existing businesses adding workers and new companies locating in the county to lower the 9.6 percent unemployment rate, but every announcement works toward that goal.
Congratulations goes to Fred McClure, chairman of the Davidson County Board of Commissioners and new second vice president of the North Carolina Association of County Commissioners. McClure beat out two other candidates to win the post at the NCACC meeting last week, and that puts him on track to become president in three years. Anytime a county official ascends to a statewide position it enables him or her to make sure local issues receive consideration.
The Davidson County Board of Education faces a critical task in selecting the new superintendent, and they're asking for the public's health. The board posted a survey on the system's website, www.davidson.k12.nc.us, and individual school sites seeking input on characteristics stakeholders seek in a new leader. The survey can provide the board important guidelines as members review résumés and eventually begin interviewing candidates. Take a few minutes to complete the survey and let your opinion be heard.

Craig Lloyd has racked up some impressive accomplishments in a few short years. He was the first runner to link all of Bryce Canyon's backcountry trails (a 37-mile endeavor) and the first to do a double crossing of Zion National Park (a 96-mile run.) He also won the 2011 Laramie 100.
An expert in all things outdoors, Lloyd's passion for running began as an offshoot of his penchant for peak bagging, basically climbing to the top of every peak within eyeshot. While attempting to hike King's Peak in 2008, Lloyd learned of a runner who had tackled The Triple Crown, an unofficial feat of climbing or running to the top of Utah's three highest peaks—King's, South King's and Gilbert. Determined to match the triumph, Lloyd decided to take up trail running. His first run was 1.9 miles, and it left him gassed. But his next was 3.2, and from there Lloyd steadily improved until he was eventually setting records for The Triple Crown.
Now he trains year-round, and runs for the innovative company Altra, a local shop pioneering zero-drop technology in footwear. He's currently prepping for the Wasatch 100 among other things, but still has time to crash races with a running buddy as part of the homebrewed superhero duo, "the AltraManiacs." Together they're known as "Zero and Drop," so named for the minimalist geometry of Altra's shoes. His alter ego, "Drop," dashes between runners at events, handing out swag and encouragement to participants, the same kind of encouragement that sparked his own journey.

There is misinformation about the University of Oregon Athletic Department's interview policy for student-athletes, coaches and administrators. To provide clarity to this long-standing policy, all interview requests are to be arranged through the Athletic Communications office.
The practice, which is the same at all Pac-12 member institutions, is in place to help manage the interview process for individuals. Student-athletes face the unique challenge of balancing extremely busy schedules involving class, studying, practice, training room and competition. Student-athlete welfare is paramount, and that includes eliminating potentially intrusive situations.
If contacted by a media member unaware of the policy or in blatant disregard for the policy, student-athletes and athletic department personnel are instructed to contact the Athletic Communications office to properly schedule the interview. In no way does the policy require student-athletes or department personnel to refrain from sharing their views or opinions on a topic.

A file system is the underlying structure a computer uses to organize data on a hard disk. If you are installing a new hard disk, you need to partition and format
it using a file system before you can begin storing data or programs. In Windows, the three file system options you have to choose from are NTFS, FAT32, and the older and rarely-used FAT (also known as FAT16).
NTFS is the preferred file system for this version of Windows. It has many benefits over the earlier FAT32 file system, including:
The capability to recover from some disk-related errors automatically, which FAT32 cannot.
Improved support for larger hard disks.
Better security because you can use permissions and encryption to restrict access to specific files to approved users.
FAT32, and the lesser-used FAT, were used in earlier versions of Windows operating systems, including Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows Millennium Edition. FAT32 does not
have the security that NTFS provides, so if you have a FAT32 partition or volume on your computer, any user who has access to your computer can read any file on it. FAT32 also has size limitations. You
cannot create a FAT32 partition greater than 32GB in this version of Windows, and you cannot store a file larger than 4GB on a FAT32 partition.
The main reason to use FAT32 is because you have a computer that will sometimes run Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows Millennium Edition and at other times run this version of Windows, known as a multiboot configuration. If that is the case, you will need to install the earlier operating system on a FAT32 or FAT partition and ensure that it is a primary partition (one that can host an operating system). Any additional partitions you will need to access when using these earlier versions of Windows must also be formatted with FAT32. These earlier
versions of Windows can access NTFS partitions or volumes over a network, but not on your computer.

Hear ye, hear ye! The negroes are coming! 2008 Afropunk Festival is in town! This year at BAM, there's a skate ramp (courtesy of some hefty corporate might) and performances from artists like Kudu and Proton. But as luck would have it, I missed most of the festival's kickoff because I was in Boston for July 4th hanging out with my mother. We watched the fireworks peel off into the sky above The Charles River as Rascal Flatts saluted Old Glory. Them pretty sparkle lights sure soothed any qualms I have about the holiday's dubious celebratory overtones. When I got back to New York I went to Franklin Park, the bestest new bar ever. Tucked away on a sleepy residential street in Crown Heights, Park houses an outcrop of beautiful people enjoying the formidable selection of beers and grooving to D'Angelo, Fela Kuti and remixes of Fela Kuti featuring D'Angelo. Afterwards, I went to the West Village to dispense some birthday knocks to Lucas of DJ duo Sweatshop Labor at Love. Fun most foul was had by all.
While I missed most of the Afropunk kick-off, on Sunday I caught neo-negro-rock Svengali James Spooner's latest film, White Lies, Black Sheep. Personally, I was a fan of the proliferation of male crotch shots; I mean the film was packed with celluloid man ass that you just don't see these days. Yes, of course there is the storyline about negotiating blackness and personal identity in this mockumentary set in the heady downtown NYC rock scene. However, that storyline is weakened by the film's desperate lunges at messages that were touched on in Afropunk, Spooner's excellent 2003 documentary on coloreds in the rock and scene. In a admirable attempt to drive home the idea that tokens should own their otherness, stereotypes skew the film's impact as a monotonous pattern arises: white girls = airheads, black girls = depressed, white guys = dickheads, black guys = slutty and depressed. But crotch shots aren't the movie's sole redeeming factor as the soundtrack kicks fuckin' ass, the actors grapple valiantly with the script and cameos from real club lords like Michael T. and Queen Majesty lend authenticity.
The same day at McCarren Park Pool, girl group queen Ronnie Spector hit the stage. The black rocktress ambled on stage in a saucy all black bustier number but she was soon felled by the oppressive heat and performed most of the set perched on an amplifier. Sadly, she was pitchy and sounded like she was passing a melon. And not to compare female Rock and Roll Hall of Famers but maybe that lack of energy is why Tina Turner is Tinaaaah: The Legendary Survivor and Ronnie comes off as a legend of beehived kitsch.
But if you wanna talk legends, the conversation has to turn to Afrika Bambaataa. The father of hip hop packed the Hudson HotelGiant Step's latest DJ event last Monday and demonstrated his many levels of, as VH1 would say, totally awesomeness. When you're credited with creating a genre as culturally significant as hip hop, all you are ever required to do at a gig is show up and enjoy the sweet, sweet ass-kisses. But Bambaataa turned the joint out spinning everything from comfort disco (Cheryl Lynn, Sugarhill Gang) to whippersnapper jams like Reggaeton from Tego Calderón, Baltimore Club remixes of Kelis and speaker-shattering Trance. Bambaataa has every right to curmudgeonly cling to the hip hop of yesteryear but his nimble curiosity means he'll evolve not only as a selector but an artist. And that's legendary status, honey.

Londonderry : Michelin's recommendations
Northern Ireland's second city is virtually the only town in the United Kingdom to retain its old walls (17C), dating from the period when the old Irish settlement of Derry had its name changed to Londonderry. It was the scene of some tragic incidents during the Troubles ("Bloody Sunday" took place here in 1972). In recent years it has undergone a transformation thanks to economic regeneration, and its bustling commercial atmosphere is a pleasant backdrop for tourist visitors.

"Snows Lane has been anything but quiet ever since the Moorings started the bed and breakfast," said resident Kerry Armstrong said. "Not only is there traffic on the lane, but people get lost and travel into our personal property."
Armstrong said she was most troubled by people who have walked into her home assuming it was the bed and breakfast, which she said happened twice last month.
"Normally I don't lock my doors when I'm home, but maybe that's something I need to start doing," she said.
Dylan Rothwell, who lives nearby, said the neighborhood, particularly the Armstrongs, created what the bed and breakfast is selling.
"They chose not to develop their land because they wanted open space, and to a lesser extent, the same with my family, but with smaller acreage," he said. "So combined, two families have contributed all the open space. And the Moorings, in turn, are selling that open space and the rural experience we created, and in doing so, degrading what we have built."
However, Tina Smith, who doesn't live in the neighborhood but has kept horses on the ranch property for more than ten years, said she hasn't seen any issues with traffic.
"Having horses, I'm very sensitive to traffic and strangers coming around them," she said.
The Moorings are leasing the property, which was previously run as part of the vocation rental pool by the owner, Massachusetts Bill Kelley.
In 2011, the Moorings applied for a business license with the county to make the property a bed and breakfast. They discovered they needed a conditional use permit to proceed.
Joe Tesch, the attorney representing the Moorings, said during the meeting that he didn't hear anything from the neighbors that couldn't be easily handled with conditions.
"Who knows why the traffic is there," he said. "Maybe it's people looking for homes. But whatever it is, we can certainly have a condition that our folks remind people in all their brochures, and when they get there and leave, to watch for the 10 mph speed limit."
Other issues facing the Moorings in securing a conditional use permit is whether there is enough water to service the bed and breakfast and whether the Moorings can be considered property owners, as the owner is required to occupy the home for it to be considered a bed and breakfast.
Tesch presented a document to the County Council showing "equitable ownership" and a letter describing there was enough water to run the bed and breakfast.
"At this point it remains to be seen whether that is satisfactory to the council or not," Amir Caus, the planner assigned to the project, told The Park Record.
The County Council met in an executive session for an hour following the discussion with neighbors to deliberate on the issue.
Councilmember Roger Armstrong said during an interview the Council did not come to any conclusion during the session.
"We're still wrestling with this issue trying to figure out where we're going to come out," he said. "But I think we'll be in a position to make a decision relatively shortly. It would be encouraging if we can near a decision by our next meeting."
