Integrate IBM Connections data
IBM® Connections® social software for businesses easily connects employees, partners, and customers. In this final part of this five-part series, you will create a portlet that fetches data from Connections. As with IBM® DB2® and Microsoft SharePoint data covered in previous parts of this tutorial (see More content in this series), you will wire the Deals portlet to this new portlet to fetch data from Connections, based on the data passed by the Deals portlet.
Before proceeding with this article, make sure that you have followed the Connections setup instructions in Part 1.
Here is a brief list of things that you will do to use data from Connections.
- Create a new Portlet named Connections. You also need to create a custom portlet class while creating the portlet and name it ConnectionsPortlet.
- Define a publisher event called AccountName in the Deals portlet.
- Define a subscriber in the Connections portlet that subscribes to AccountName event.
- Enable the Connections portlet to write business logic to fetch artifacts from Connections. This can be done by enabling the server-side technologies feature for this portlet.
- Create an action that triggers the event AccountName event, and, in turn, invokes the event handler, which is the processEvent method in the Connections portlet.
- Generate JavaServer Pages (JSP) code to display the artifacts fetched in step 4.
- Wire the two portlets together.
Tasks 1, 2, 3, and 6 are similar to what were already discussed while creating SharePoint-related Portlets. So this section covers steps 4, 5, 6 and 7.
Enable server-side technologies for the Connections portlet
Assuming that you have already created the Connections portlet, here are the steps that you will need to follow to enable server side technologies feature.
- Right-click the DealsProject project, and choose Properties.
- Open the Project Facets tab.
- Choose Server Side Technologies facet under the Web 2.0 category, as shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1. Choose the server-side technologies facet
- Click OK.
This makes available the Apache Abdera APIs that are required to connect to RESTful services provided by IBM Connections.
Create the action that triggers the AccountName event in the Deals portlet
Before creating an action that triggers an event from the Deals portlet, let's just go through the use-case. The flow of event is as follows:
- The Deals Portlet publishes an event to pass the Account name to the Connections portlet.
- The Connections portlet receives an event to invoke a method that processes the data i.e. the Account name. Based on the Account name the relevant activities are fetched from a Connections server.
Now, to create an action that triggers the AccountName event, follow these steps:
- Open the DealsView.jsp in the Page Designer.
- Open the Portlet drawer in the Palette view.
- Click Event Source Trigger, and drag and drop it onto the Name expression in the Account Name column.
This invokes the Insert Event Source Trigger dialog window. Figure 2 shows what the values in the Insert Event Source Trigger dialog should look like after you have defined the AccountName event.
Defining the event AccountName event is similar to defining of the ContactId event in the Part 4 of this series.
Figure 2. Insert Event Source Trigger Dialog window
- Click Finish.
The NAME field will be hyperlinked, as shown in Figure 3. Notice how the Deals portlet node is decorated with a Publish event icon for the AccountName event.
Figure 3. Hyperlinked column
Now you need to enable the Connections portlet to receive the event AccountName. The steps for doing this are pretty much the same that you followed for enabling the ContactInformation portlet to receive the event ContactId in Part 4. So this is not covered in detail here. After you enable the Connections portlet to receive the AccountName event, open the ConnectionsPortlet.java class, and do the following:
- Locate the processEvent method, and replace its contents with the code shown in Listing 1.
Listing 1. New code for the processEvent method
public void processEvent(EventRequest request, EventResponse response) throws PortletException, java.io.IOException { super.processEvent(request, response); FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(); Event sampleEvent = request.getEvent(); if(sampleEvent.getName().toString().equals("AccountName")) { Object sampleProcessObject = sampleEvent.getValue(); Application app = facesContext.getApplication(); fetchFromConnections(sampleProcessObject.toString(), app); } }
- Create a new class called
ConnectionsListunder the com.ibm.dealsproject package.
- Replace the contents of this class with the code in Listing 2.
Listing 2. Code for new ConnectionsList class
package com.ibm.dealsproject; import java.util.List; public class ConnectionsList { List connectionsList; public List getConnectionsList() { return connectionsList; } public void setConnectionsList(List connectionsList) { this.connectionsList = connectionsList; } }
This class is used to store all of the matching activities from Connections that correspond to an Account name. Listing 3 shows use of this class.
- Create a Faces Managed Bean instance, using the ConnectionsList class to hold the list of activities. This is done in a similar fashion as you did earlier for the ContactBean class in Part 3 of this series.
- Enter these values (also shown in Figure 4):
- Name: connectionsList
- Class: com.ibm.dealsproject.ConnectionsList
- Scope: Session (select from the drop-down menu)
Figure 4. Specifying Faces Managed Bean properties
- Copy and paste the code in Listing 3 into the ConnectionsPortlet.java file. This method, fetchFromConnections, is called by the processEvent method along with the account name on which a user clicks in the Deals portlet. You can also find the ConnectionsPortlet.java file in the Deals project, within the sample project.
Listing 3. Code for the fetchFromConnections method
public static void fetchFromConnections(String accountName, Application app){ List activityList = new ArrayList(); Abdera abdera = new Abdera(); AbderaClient client = new AbderaClient(abdera); ConnectionsDataAccess connectionsDataAccess = ConnectionsDataAccess.getInstance(); //information fetched from connection.properties file String userName = connectionsDataAccess. getConnectionsUserName(); String password = connectionsDataAccess. getConnectionsPassword(); String url = connectionsDataAccess. getConnectionsUrl(); try { String activityHome = url+"/activities/"; String activityUrl = activityHome+"service/html/ mainpage#activitypage,"; client.addCredentials(activityHome, null, null, new UsernamePasswordCredentials(userName,password)); ClientResponse response = client.get(activityHome+"service/ atom2/everything"); Document doc = response.getDocument(); Feed feed = (Feed)doc.getRoot(); List list = feed.getEntries(); for (int i = 0; i > list.size(); i++) { Entry entry = (Entry) list.get(i); if(entry.getTitle().contains(accountName)){ String id = entry.getId().toString(); String arr[]=id.split(":"); id = arr[arr.length - 1]; ConnectionsBean mybean = new ConnectionsBean(); mybean.setUrl(activityUrl+id); mybean.setContent(entry.getContent()); mybean.setTitle(entry.getTitle()); activityList.add(mybean); } } } catch (URISyntaxException e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block e.printStackTrace(); } /*catch (MalformedURLException e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block e.printStackTrace(); }*/ catch (ParseException e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block e.printStackTrace(); } /*catch (IOException e) { // TODO Auto-generated catch block e.printStackTrace(); } */ if(!activityList.isEmpty()){ FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(); ValueBinding binding = app.createValueBinding("# {connectionsList}"); ConnectionsList connectionsList = (ConnectionsList) binding.getValue(facesContext); connectionsList.setConnectionsList(activityList); facesContext.release(); } }
The code in Listing 3 fetches activities data that corresponds to an account name from IBM Lotus Connections, using the API provided by the Connections server. The fetched activity information is stored in a ConnectionsBean object, which in turn is added to an ArrayList object. Finally, the ArrayList object is set in the Faces managed object: the ConnectionsList object that you created earlier. Using this Faces Managed object, you can generate the JSP code to display the activities data in the portlet
Generate JSP code
To generate the JSP code for displaying the activity data that was fetched in the Listing 3, follow these steps:
- Open the ConnectionsView.jsp file in the Page Designer.
- Open the Page Data view, and expand the connectionsList node, as shown in Figure 5.
Figure 5. Expanded Faces Managed Bean node
- Double-click the Contained Type node to open the Choose Contained Type dialog window.
- Type
ConnectionsBean, and choose the ConnectionsBean object in the matching items.
Figure 6. Choose Contained Type dialog window
- Click OK and Save the file.
- Now drag the Contained Type node to the JSP. This opens the Insert JavaBean dialog window shown in Figure 7.
- Deselect the url check box, and change the labels as listed here and shown in Figure 7:
- Change title to
- Change content to
Activity Content.
- Change title to
Figure 7. Insert JavaBean window
- Click Finish, and Save the file.
This will automatically generate the code to display the list of selected fields in the ConnectionsView.jsp, as shown in Figure 8.
Figure 8. Content in the JSP
- Open the Palette view, and expand the Enhanced Faces Component drawer.
Note: To open the Palette view, you need to click the Window menu item and then click the menu bar item Show View, and then the sub-menu item Palette, as shown in Figure 9 (Window > Show View > Palette).
Figure 9. Open the Palette view
- Choose Link (Figure 10) from the Enhanced Faces Component palette drawer, and drag it over the
{title}expression to invoke the Configure URL window.
Figure 10. Link item in the palette
- Enter
#{varconnectionsList.url}in the URL field, and leave the Label field blank.
This inserts a URL in the title expression, as shown in the Figure 11.
Figure 11. Updated content in JSP
- Run the DealsProject on server.
This opens the browser and renders the portlet application.
- Perform a wiring operation again, as you did previously in Part 4 of this series. This time, wire together the Deals portlet and the Connections portlet.
Figure 12 shows what the wiring UI will look like.
Figure 12. Wiring interface
- Click on an account name in the Deals portlet, and watch the activities information that gets displayed in the Connections portlet. See Figure 13.
Figure 13. Event-enabled portlets sharing data
This five-part tutorial described the creation of a full-featured, composite multichannel portlet application that uses data from a variety of data sources, such as an IBM DB2 database, a Microsoft SharePoint server, and IBM Connections social business software. It provided a step-by-step guide for creating a portlet user interface for a desktop browser, as well as for a smart phone browser. It also guided you through various of other aspects of portlet application development, including creation of a Service Data Object (SDO) for using data from a DB2 table, use of the web services provided by Microsoft SharePoint server, and use of APIs provide by IBM Connections. Then it showed how to write your own business logic for fetching data from the Microsoft SharePoint server, as well as from IBM Connections. It demonstrated enablement of event handling between different portlets, using the tools in Rational Application Developer. It also covered wiring together different portlets by using the wiring utility provided in WebSphere Portal 7.0 software.

JDF soldiers excel
Patrick Robinson, Gleaner Intern
Though they come from contrasting backgrounds, lieutenants Brandon Chambers and Craig Lewis-Mayne are among some of the top achievers of the Jamaica Defence Force (JDF). The two were among four army officers who received their wings at the Norman Manley International Airport during a graduation ceremony held at the Jamaica Military Aviation School (JMAS) on Friday.
From the second batch of pilots to graduate since the inception of JMAS in 2006, the four young officers walked away with their wings, making them qualified military pilots.
Chambers, former platoon commander of the First Battalion The Jamaica Regiment, distinguished himself by achieving the Commandant's award, which is handed to the student with the highest overall average in both academics and flying during the JMAS Wing course and has consistently performed above average in the School's Officer Development Programme.
A past student of St George's College, Chambers was born on August 2, 1984. He grew up in Kingston and joined the JDF in April 2006 yielding to his childhood dream of become a pilot in the military. For Chambers, getting the top prize on the course did not come in one shot, he too had his challenges.
"The course was challenging for me. My biggest challenge was the low level navigation," argued Chambers.
He said the course was all about teamwork. In relation to the recent upsurge in violence, the lieutenant had a message for the youth in society.
'Never give up'
"Don't allow where you are from to determine where you go, never give up, most of the successful people in the world were born poor," he said.
Equally impressive was Lewis-Mayne, a young man from Frankfield Clarendon, who came from humble beginnings to join the JDF in October 2003. Born in 1982, he was the eldest participant in the course whose maturity played a pivotal part in the team's success. Lewis-Mayne was inspired to fly by his father, Harold Mayne, a former pilot. He is the second to last of six brothers and sisters. He too had a message for the youth in society.
"Stay on the right path, stay in school," he said.

I have a raid 1 array which is currently missing one disk. I want to change the system over to two completely new disks. I currently have Intel Rapid Storage Technology 10.8.0.1068 installed. What is the simplest way to move the system over to the two new disks? The OS is Windows 2003, disks are sata.
Intel provides guidance for migrating a normal, fully functional raid 1 array to new disks in http://www.intel.com/support/chipsets/imsm/sb/CS-030751.htm. But I only have one disk in place right now and thus a degraded array.
I think I can go with what Intel suggests in that document. I don't have to pull an existing disk; it's already out. But otherwise, does anyone see an issue with my situation and just adapting the intel recommended process?

At a farewell appearance at the Unitarian church Sunday, Tim DeChristopher, Utah's one-time-monkey wrencher-now-felon, told the packed house what he learned about activism, discrimination, and love and shame in a federal slammer.
DeChristopher derailed an auction of public-land gas and oil leases in late 2008 by buying a bunch of them himself as bidder No. 70. He called it civil disobedience, but the feds argued that because DeChristopher didn't really intend to lease the land, let alone drill for oil on it, his action constituted fraud. A federal judge in SLC saw it their way and sentenced DeChristopher to 21 months prison time.
Somehow he retained his sense of humor. Leaving Utah to attend Harvard Divinity School (that's what hard time will do to a man), DeChristopher said the most common question he gets is, "Will you return to Utah?"
His answer, well under half in jest, is simple: "Only if progressives in Utah get rid of [U.S. Rep.] Jim Matheson."
He sees Democrat Matheson's re-elections as proof that Utah's progressives (particularly the would-be progressive Democratic Party) are trapped in a cycle of "shame, fear and short-term thinking." They have somehow become convinced that progressive values are something for which they should ashamed.
"Nothing represents that more than the re-election of Jim Matheson," DeChristopher told the Unitarians who have provided him a staunch support group through his trial and incarceration. "Nobody wants to be part of a movement like that."
Matheson, he argues, has voted with Utah's conservative Republicans on virtually every important issue. In fact, DeChristopher says, the only time Matheson departed from the Utah right-wing line was to vote in support of the National Security Agency's snooping on American citizens. Utah's Republican congressmen, at least, voted to end the program's invasion of the privacy of Americans not suspected of a crime.

Robert Darryl War Club Sentenced in U.S. District Court
|U.S. Attorney's Office January 08, 2010
The United States Attorney's Office for the District of Montana announced today that during a federal court session in Great Falls, on January 7, 2010, before U.S. District Judge Sam E. Haddon, ROBERT DARRYL WAR CLUB, a 49-year-old resident of Wolf Point, appeared for sentencing. WAR CLUB was sentenced to a term of:
- Prison: life
- Special Assessment: $100
- Restitution: $5,466.84
WAR CLUB was sentenced after having been found guilty during a four-day trial of first degree murder. Assistant U.S. Attorneys Lori Harper Suek and Vince Carroll prosecuted the case for the United States.
Because there is no parole in the federal system, the "truth in sentencing" guidelines mandate that WAR CLUB will likely serve all of the time imposed by the court. In the federal system, WAR CLUB does have the opportunity to earn a sentence reduction for "good behavior." However, this reduction will not exceed 15 percent of the overall sentence.
The investigation was a cooperative effort between the Fort Peck Tribes Criminal Investigation Division and the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

God Shakes Baja California With 6.9 Magnitude Earthquake
California is an immoral state that allows illegal Mexicans to sneak into our God-given land and secretly votes to allow gay marriage.
There is nothing more frustrating to God than gay illegal Mexicans sashaying through his holy land of America, so today he struck down at the heart of the matter!
TIJUANA, Mexico, Aug 3 (Reuters) – A strong 6.9-magnitude earthquake struck off Baja California in northwestern Mexico on Monday, shaking buildings as far away as San Diego, California, and raising fears of a small tsunami.
The U.S. Geological Survey said the quake struck inside the Sea of Cortez, 76 miles (122 km) from the town of Santa Isabel on the Baja California peninsula and was 6.2 miles (10 km) deep. The figures were revised from its initial estimates.
There were no initial reports of deaths or serious damage. Baja California, home to desert and mountains, is sparsely populated.
The quake was felt strongly in San Diego just across the border from Mexico and City Hall was evacuated, local media said….
…Local authorities and the USGS warned there was a risk of a tsunami in the area.
"There's a very high risk this could occur," said Baja California emergency services director Alfredo Escobedo.
The area attracts U.S. tourists. (Reporting by Lizbeth Diaz in Tijuana and Cyntia Barrera in Mexico City)
Oh mark my words that this was but a small display of God's true power! Had he done more than just snap his fingers under Earth's tectonic plates we would be flying every whichaway through the cold death grips of space
You see my friends, God hates filth and what can be more petulant and rotten than a sin soaked city in Mexico, in the summer heat?
It festers in the nose of God and when he sees his American college students betraying our nation's Christian heritage by sneaking to these filthy 3rd world cities, he heaves! God is sick and tired of how every year American college students and native Mexican indians meet up to throw sin shows and play gay pattacake with each other's twiddler rompuses, then sneak their jungle diseases back up into San Deigo!
Students at the following schools: UCSB, University of San Diego, Loyala Marymount, Pepperdine, UCLA, USC, San Diego State and all the others I may have missed! Beware!
This earthquake is God's back to school special just for you. Only those without sins will graduate from live with high honors, the rest will be flipping burgers in eternally hot grease fires of Hell!
Be warned and stay out of Mexico you collegiate devilwhores! God's wrath is nigh for those who continue to bring filthy Meixcans disease and filth back to our country!

There is a new sexually transmitted disease called the G-Plus virus. It has no known cure and is inevitably fatal. This doesn't exactly sound like a comic book premise until the fact that the virus unlocks superhuman abilities in those that contract it, as if to use up the body's potential of an entire lifetime, shortened and intensified into only months.
The story concentrates on three of those stricken with the disease. These three don't know each other but their G-Plus cases are considered extreme as their affliction manifests itself into frightening new skills. Verity Fette is an artist employed as a graphic designer, that is, until she tells off her insensitive boss and requests he throw her job into an uncomfortable place. She can transmogrify into liquids and flammable substances. Danny Waissel, Weasel, is a young but washed up rock-and-roller whose record company is trying their best to exploit their asset's limited time. His hands emit acid and he can phase through objects like a phantom (or Kitty Pride). The third is Russell Brand, for all intents and purposes (or, at least, a parody). David Montgomery is a long-haired British comedian with an insatiable libido. He is self-absorbed and utterly, morally bankrupt. Naturally, he's the one with the most powerful ability.
Montgomery starts off as merely mind control but his powers continue to grow to near-omnipotence. He declares himself King and turns Buckingham Palace into Caligula's lair, a monument to debauchery and the basest of desires. He callously and effortlessly murders thousands with a thought, keeping the rest of his kingdom under his thrall. His abilities and sphere of influence expand to the point where taking him out becomes the only option. However, no one can get close enough to do it without succumbing to Monty's mind. Only people with high "G-Ratings" have a chance to distract him, Verity and Weasel.
"Death Sentence" is witty and crude with huge scope. It's certainly not for everyone as there is plenty of violence and profanity, and carnal content but it isn't used gratuitously. It helps to fuel the story, just as Matt Fraction does with his "Sex Criminals" series. The copious amounts of sex acts are staged in ways that aren't very graphic. Mike Dowling's art is surprisingly understated for the material but he sure knows how to get his characters to emote. There is a lot of despair depicted in the faces. Absurdly funny and strangely relate-able, Monty Nero has written an epic tale about meaning, what truly matters to individuals as well as the whole. Some people want to live a meaningless life of pomp, others want to make an impact and leave something behind. Those who have everything can still want more while otherwise unremarkable people can be capable of the astounding. It all depends on their motivation. Balancing mayhem and message, "Death Sentence" almost seems destined to be under-appreciated by the masses. Their loss.

First I use Orange to mark the start of color mapping,in this example the candidate is (1).
- Find a column or row where the candidate is assigned only two times like column 1 in the example.
- Hence R9C1 is true (1) then all cells in blue are false and all cells in green are true.
- Now if R5C1 is true (1) then we can exclude the candidate (1) in all blue cells that shall be false again, in this example that would be the cells (R5C5, R6C5 and R5C9) and if any green cell shall be true again we can assign this candidate to this cell safely.

Dariusz Dudka ended 2011 with 60 caps for Poland, making him the most experienced international in Franciszek Smuda's prospective UEFA EURO 2012 squad. He can play in defence or in his preferred role of midfield anchorman, where his tackling and intercepting skills come to the fore.
• Made his Polish top-flight debut for now-defunct KS Amica Wronki at 16 and spent six years there, never finishing lower than seventh; also reached the group phase of the 2004/05 UEFA Cup but Amica lost all four matches, conceding 16 goals in the process.
• Signed by Wisła Kraków in 2005, he started all but one game in his debut Ekstraklasa campaign and was rewarded with a place in Poland's 2006 FIFA World Cup squad; his seven minutes of action at the finals, however, coincided with Germany scoring the late winner that eliminated Poland from the tournament.
• Made eight UEFA EURO 2008 qualifying appearances and was on the field from start to finish in all three matches at the finals, the first two, against Germany and Austria, in midfield, the last one, versus Croatia, in defence.
• A title winner with Wisła in 2007/08, he left for AJ Auxerre in June 2008 and helped the club finish third in Ligue 1 in 2009/10, which led the following season to his first participation in the UEFA Champions League.
• Reached 50 caps in March 2011 with a friendly in Lithuania (0-2) and featured in each of Poland's next ten internationals as the countdown to UEFA EURO 2012 intensified.

Washington vs. Washington State
January 30, 2010
Post-game quotes
Washington Coach Lorenzo Romar
Opening Statement:
"There were so many heroes for us tonight. Justin Holiday defensively was very good, also get's 10 rebounds out there, he battled. I thought Tyreese Breshers and Mathew Bryan-Amaning in the middle did a good job of just being there and playing smart defense down there. Venoy Overton, obviously defensively, but 7 assists and 0 turnovers. That is a great great job. Isaiah got going in the second half and then Quincy gets a double-double again. There were so many contributors tonight. Scott Suggs comes off the bench and gives us a lift. It was a great great team effort, 19 assists and 32 baskets. It just shows we were playing unselfishly on both ends of the floor"
On Justin Holiday's play:
"He just got after it. He just got after it. He wouldn't be denied that way.
On his halftime speech in the locker room:
"It came down to us... we were just out competed in the first half. In a nutshell, that's what we talked about."
On the guys losing their heads:
"We are pretty good that way. Those are the things now that we have to be able to do better when we get on the road. Situations like that, we have to handle those better. It was a competitive game. You're talking about Washington State coming out competing at a high level and then when we got our second wind we are competing as well. A lot of times in sports, people want to make a big deal about of `well a scuffle broke out.' If you're really competing, that is what's going to happen. That is just how it goes in any sport, anywhere you are trying to win the prize, you are not going to go down easy. That's all.
Washington forward Quincy Pondexter
On what he said at halftime:
"I said it was war and that we would have to keep battling and fighting because we could start to see them wearing down. We saw them having weaknesses and we really wanted to come out and expose them in the second half. Our guys came out and played really hard and really well. The rest is history."
On having Brandon Roy in the crowd as motivation:
"I wanted to show him a little something. He's one of my favorite players in the NBA and he's definitely a mentor and great role model to everyone that stays in college for all four years. I model my game a lot after him because he's such a great player."
On whether this was a must-win:
"Especially with the hole that we are in right now, every game is a must-win. We have the ability to have the league come back to us. At the end of the day, we just have to play Husky basketball."
Washington State Coach Ken Bone
Opening Statement
"Well, that was a disaster--that second half. I think the Huskies showed who they are on some nights, and they showed us. Those last 20 minutes were pretty frustrating experience, but give U-Dub all the credit, they pretty much put us in our place. I was proud of the fact that our guys came into a hostile environment and played a very good 20 minutes. I was impressed with what our guys were able to do in the first 20. It's just disappointing that we weren't able to sustain it for a few more minutes than 20, but it seemed like once the second half started U-Dub had our number and it was really a tale of two halves."
On what allowed the Huskies to go on the run in the 2nd half
"I think the same thing that allowed them to have similar runs against the last three opponents that came here--Cal, Stanford, and Seattle U. First of all, it's a great environment for the home team, and second of all they're a very good team. They have some big time talent, a great coaching staff, and they've got what it takes to be extremely good, and they showed us."
On what caused Klay Thompson's lack of success
"Husky defense. U-Dub played good defense on him, and he has not shot the ball real well for a few games. This isn't his first poor shooting night.
"For one thing I think he's pressing. He knows he's a great shooter, and you run out to the gym right now, he might make 90 out of 100 threes with no one on him. He's a prolific shooter. He's trying as hard as he can to make shots, and I think he's pressing a little bit trying too hard to shoot well. Second of all, teams are aware of him. Even though he hasn't shot it real well, where he's at all times it's hard for him to get looks. We run stuff for him and try to do things to get him the ball because we know what he's capable of doing, but he's having a hard time putting the ball in the basket as of late."

Anyone listen to this on SiriusXM?
I was wanting some sports talk on my way over from SC and ESPN just had baseball games on so I turned my satellite up a couple notches and MDSR was on. I actually kinda like it. They have a bunch of guys that basically won't get jobs at ESPN because of things they've said and they are soon to be getting Stephen A Smith. I dig it.
I have listened to that station on occasion, but now that I know Screamin' A will be on there i will avoid it like the plague.
If I am in the car at the right time I will listen to DP on it...other than that rarely.
I listen to it quite a bit. Its mostly a bunch of East Coast guys yelling and swearing, it's entertaining.........much more than Mike and Mike or the Dan Lebtard show. I listen to it when i am in the car until Colin and SVP/Russilo start.
I like it because if they have an opinion they will just say it versus the guys at ESPN that are afraid of losing their jobs.

Louis & Hortense Rubin Community Fellowship Awards 1996-97
"Creative Venture Program: Training for Artists" - $8,000
- Institution Name: The Sage Colleges
- Cooperating Agency: Rensselaer County Council for the Arts (RCCA) and the Eddy
The Creative Ventures Program is a partnership between RCCA, The Sage Colleges, and the Eddy. It is an innovative approach to the special needs of seniors. The program will engage seniors in diverse experiences with the creative arts to build a sense of vitality and well being, and to bring increased independence and development that grows from active participation in the arts. This program is an education-based arts program designed to provide opportunities for artistic expression and creation for senior citizens who are affiliated with the Eddy. This will be implemented with a life-enhancing paradigm through which a team comprising professional artists, students from The Sage Colleges, and representatives from the Eddy and RCCA will provide the opportunities for senior citizens to engage in artistic activities.
"Reward, Recognition, and Incentive System" - $5,800
- Institution Name: Lally School of Management and Technology, RPI
- Cooperating Agency: New York State Association for Retarded Citizens, Inc. (ARC)
The ARC is committed to researching and designing an effective system for recognizing, rewarding and providing incentives to its lowest paid staff. Turnover within this staff is high, therefore causing a problem. There is research which indicates that morale (and hence, turnover) can be positively impacted by a well designed system of recognition for performance including commensurate rewards. There is also research indicating that job satisfaction is not only related to pay but to many other factors including job design and frequency and type of recognition. The ARC is not in any position to change the pay scale of its workers, but it can look at how recognizes and rewards performance. The ARC would like to be known as an employer renowned for the way in which it treats its employees. For these reasons, we plan to research and design a Reward, Recognition and Incentive System which will help to address this. The immediate outcome of this project would be to design a Reward, Recognition and Incentive System aimed at the lowest paid members of the staff. The long range desired outcomes are to reduce turnover, reduce absenteeism, achieve higher morale, reduce personnel costs, raise the quality of service delivery, and increase consumer satisfaction.
"Biology: On Line, on Tape, and in Hand" - $3,000
- Institution Name: Hudson Valley Community College
- Cooperating Agency: Local Elementary Schools
A survey of fourteen elementary schools in Rensselaer County completed by the Biology Department of Hudson Valley Community College (HVCC) indicates an enthusiastic interest in and need for an innovative "Hands On" scientific experience for their students. Our goal in applying to the Louis and Hortense Rubin Community Fellows Program Grant is to create solutions which make science interesting, challenging, interactive, and easily accessible to the elementary students of our community. The target audience for this program would be grades 3-8. By bringing college faculty into elementary classrooms to provide hands on science enrichment, we hope to establish a link between primary/secondary school students and the college community.

Watch this, skip that
"American Country Awards" 8 p.m., Fox The American Country Awards are not to be confused with the Academy of Country Music Awards, although I'm sure Fox would like that very much.
This is a show created in 2010 expressly for Fox, because we don't have enough celebrities handing each other hardware on television.
The music is just as mercenary as the rest of the show, with numbers carefully chosen to maximize sales – and not the sort of rare and semi-impromptu moments that make shows like the Grammys worth watching.
Unless you have a severe hankering to hear what Cowboy Troy has been up to lately, this is best avoided.
Verdict: Skip that
"NCIS: Los Angeles" 9 p.m., CBS The crew gets back to the current story line after CBS snuck in an unexpected rerun last week. We'll learn more about Kensi's reassignment – a plot twist necessitated by the real-life pregnancy of actress Daniela Ruah.
"Sons of Anarchy" 10 p.m., FX The season finale arrives, with the fates of several characters in the balance. Tara tried to choose a middle ground, leaving Charming but avoiding witness protection. A gang war is looming, and Nero must choose sides. Jax's plan to set the Sons of Anarchy on a less criminal path – accomplished, of course, with a dozen or so highly necessary murders – seems close to fruition.
But the biggest question for fans is this: Does creator Kurt Sutter pull the rug on the viewers again and put the show back on its endless story merry-go-round, or will he finally free "Sons of Anarchy" to tell a different tale in its final two seasons?
"The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show" 10 p.m., CBS What's wrong with supermodels walking around in their underwear? Nothing, really, unless it takes place inside a giant commercial posing as a TV show. That this perennial piece of extremely mild pornography persists in the age of the Internet is more of a wonder than how some of the outfits stay on for the trip down the runway.

SPA Authentication
Dennis Skinner <dskinner <at> bluefrog.biz>
Hello all, Having some fun setting up SPA authentication in exim. Here is what I have in the authentcators section: spa: driver = spa public_name = NTLM server_advertise_condition = 1 server_password = ${lookup{$1}lsearch{/export/exim/etc/passwd}} server_set_id = $1 The passwd file is user:password format. I setup Evolution to use SPA and tested. The value that ends up in $1 is missing every other character, so for "dskinner", $1 contains "dkne". If I double the username in Evolution (ddsskkiinnnneerr), it works fine. This could be a bug in Evolution. Not sure. Not huge deal since I'll just use cram instead (which seems to work). I ran next door and setup a windows box (outlook express 6) to test it and it seems to be having issues with the challenge/response.

Coach Neuheisel Post-Game News Conference
PASADENA, Calif. - Johnathan Franklin rushed for 109 yards and one touchdown, and Richard Brehaut completed 20-of-35 passes for 230 yards as UCLA fell to USC, 28-14, before 71,105 at the Rose Bowl on Saturday night.
Franklin notched his fifth game this season with 100 or more yards on the ground and became the first Bruin to rush for at least 100 yards against USC since DeShaun Foster ran for 109 yards on Nov. 21, 1998.
USC's Allen Bradford ran for 212 yards and caught a 47-yard touchdown pass from Matt Barkley in the fourth quarter to help USC earn its fourth consecutive win over the Bruins.
"It's a difficult, bitter game for us," third-year head coach Rick Neuheisel said. "We certainly had chances, plenty of opportunities."
Each team scored a touchdown in the first quarter. USC running back Dillon Baxter completed a five-yard touchdown pass to Rhett Ellison with 4:39 remaining in the first quarter to put the Trojans ahaed, 7-0.
Franklin answered for the Bruins, breaking off a 59-yard touchdown run with 3:47 left in the opening quarter.
USC's Malcolm Smith returned a Franklin fumble 68 yards for a Trojans' touchdown with 2:31 to play before halftime. The Trojans entered the locker room at halftime with a 14-7 lead.
Leading 14-7 through three quarters, USC pulled away with a 47-yard completion from Barkley to Bradford with 11:17 left in the contest. The Trojans increased their margin to 28-7 with a 73-yard touchdown run by Bradford with 3:31 to go.
UCLA scored its second touchdown of the evening with 23 seconds left in the game - Brehaut completed a 10-yard touchdown pass to Joseph Fauria, the tight end's second touchdown reception in as many weeks.

I have been a Christian for as long as I can remember. However, I have gone through trials... those that can test ones faith but my faith has always gotten me through. The end of Sept/beginning of Oct, my husband I started going to a church near our home and that church/congregation/GOD spoke to me more than ever before. Because of that, I started listening to Christian music exclusively. I have noticed such a change in my already typically positive attitude. I just feel happier. This is prominent to me tonight because I have been christian music "deprived" for the past couple of days (weekends with small kids = kids music, if any at all). At this very moment (late at night I might add), I am working and turned on KLOVE online and it immediately "perked" me up - even after been home with a sick toddler all day and being up late working! GOD is amazing - HE will speak to you in whatever avenue HE can! Thank you KLOVE for being that avenue through music!

The winter months extend from November to April and are the most enjoyable time to visit Cairo. The tourist season peaks between December and February as these are the coolest of the winter months. Days are normally sunny but there is no guarantee they will remain so all through winter; occasionally, you can expect overcast skies followed by cold nights. Night temperatures can often drop to as low as 8° C (46° F) and it is a good idea to carry a warm jacket if you plan to get out during the evenings.
Also be warned that many Cairo hotels, buildings and hostels do not have heaters in their rooms. Towards the end of the winter months in March and April, Cairo gets hit by the hot khamsin winds from the western desert. These strong winds can fill the air with sand and dust, making things very unpleasant.
The summer months are from May to October when the weather is considerably warmer. June, July and August get very hot and uncomfortable with temperatures in Cairo averaging 35° C (95° F), and can often reach the scorching 40° C (104° F) mark. If you can, avoid these months. You can visit Cairo at any other time of the year with early spring, from March to May, and early autumn, from September to November, being good periods to plan an Egyptian holiday.
The climate in Cairo is both temperate and arid and there is little or no precipitation. The summer months can get a little humid, but the rest of the year is quite dry.

Massage Therapy
Massage Offered at Steamboat
Skillful massage has many benefits including a positive impact on every system of the body. Muscles are relieved of tension and spasm, blood and nutrient supplies are increased to the muscles, and toxins and wastes are eliminated. There are also benefits to the skeletal system, respiratory system, digestive system, and nervous system. Many unhealthy conditions within the body can be improved or corrected through massage.
Our therapists are certified and licensed with the highest professional qualifications. We ask that you make your appointment 24 hours in advance.
Massage and mineral water together are doubly effective to promote healing and good health.
Swedish Massage
Swedish Massage is done with long smooth strokes along the muscles and is useful in the treatment and prevention of stresses and tension. It helps to relax muscle tension and improves circulation as well as stimulating the removal of toxins from the body. Swedish Massage is available for a one hour, half an hour, one and a half hours or two hours. The length of massage you select should be determined by the condition of your muscles. A half hour will only allow work to be done on a selected area of the body, such as the neck and shoulders. If deep work is required for the entire body an hour and a half is recommended.
Sports & Deep Tissue Massage
Sports massage is recommended following exercise or to deal with sports injuries. It relieves swelling, reduces muscular tension, and helps prevent soreness. Deep Tissue is recommended when there are muscle spasms to be worked on.
Aromatherapy Massage
Swedish massage is combined with a custom blend of pure essential oils created for your specific needs. Pure essential oils are recognized for their many therapeutic uses and can be a wonderful enhancement to your massage.
Hot Stone Massage
Massage using hot river stones to ease stress. Heated stones are placed on the body and used throughout the massage.
Raindrop Therapy
Raindrop Therapy is a simple application of dropping oils like little drops of rain from about six inches above the body. It is designed to bring the body into balance, to help align the energy centers of the body, and release them if blocked. The oils will continue to work in the body for about 5 to 7 days after the treatment with continued re-alignment taking place during this time. A stroking motion is used to spread the oils as each of 8 different oils is applied to the back. It has been reported that this treatment has a powerful affect on many conditions in the body, including virus and bacteria activity and scoliosis.
Reflexology is an ancient form of healing. Evidence has been found in Egypt in the tomb of a physician from 2300 B.C.; and in a temple in Nara, Japan, dating from 700 A.D. The practice was resumed in Europe in modern times. Reflexes in the feet and hands correspond to all the body organs and systems. By the application of pressure to those reflexes the body can be brought back into homeostasis or balance.
Reflex trigger points in the feet are stimulated causing a "current of injury" and a responding "current of healing and regeneration" from the brain. This process was discovered and described by Dr. Robert O. Becker who said that the stimulation of the reflex point triggers the sensory nerve in the brain and thereby causes the release of a chemical response of self-healing. Thus, stimulation of reflex points can trigger a response of self-healing in the organs of the body.
Treating the whole foot can have a relaxing and healing effect on the whole body. It helps the circulation in the body, and balances systems naturally. Clients with any serious medical problems should seek medical advice before undergoing any kind of bodywork.

Edit Article
How to Insert a Cannula
The technique of inserting a cannula is a simple one, and is often also known as venous cannulation or peripheral cannulation. This article shall prove to be of use should the reader be a patient looking out of interest or a student looking to learn the technique. Below, the basic technique is described, however each professional may adapt the technique to their own preference.
1Choose the size of the cannula you shall use. In general the larger gauge needle you use, the higher the maximum flow rate of the fluid entering into the vein.
2Before you begin the procedure, get informed consent should be from the patient, usually verbally. This builds up a rapport with the patient and allows for a less traumatic experience.
3Take a quick history, primarily to exclude any allergy or sensitivity that the patient may have. This is particularly true for latex allergy. Should an allergy to latex be confirmed, then the tourniquet, gloves and the cannula must be changed to latex-free alternatives.
4Apply the tourniquet around the patient's arm and tighten appropriately.
5Clean the skin using an alcohol wipe to clear away pathogens on the skin and prevent infection. The skin should be cleaned over the vein to be used for cannulation.
6Insert the cannula at approximately 30 degrees.
7Advance the cannula until a flashback is seen at the base (a flashback occurs when blood enters the base of the cannula).
8The needle should now be held stationary whilst the plastic component of the cannula is advanced further into the vein.
9Keep advancing the plastic component of the cannula until the plastic tube is fully inserted.
10Remove the tourniquet from the patient's arm.
11Remove the needle from the base of the cannula leaving the plastic component in sight.
12Take the bung and insert it into the end of the cannula.
13Secure the cannula with an appropriate dressing.
14Flush the cannula with a flushing solution, usually normal saline to check for adequate positioning within the vein.
15Dispose of the sharps safely and any other waste.
16Document the procedure in the appropriate set of notes.

Obesity, Throat Cancer, Refined Carbohydrates
the increase in the throat cancer parallels the obesity rate. Reuters reports:
The rising incidence of throat cancer, also referred to as cancer of the esophagus or esophageal adenocarcinoma, may be related to Americans' increasing intake of total and refined carbohydrates and subsequent rise in obesity rates…What a surprise, refined carbohydrates are to blame. Refined carbohydrates—processed foods in general—are bad news. Here Dr. Fuhrman explains why manufactured food isn't doing your health any favors. Take a look:
…The incidence of esophageal adenocarcinoma increased over the review period and "strongly correlated" with carbohydrate consumption. This cancer is also known to be strongly associated with gastroesophageal reflux (GERD), which, in turn, associated with obesity and a high carbohydrate intake, the investigators report in the American Journal of Gastroenterology.
Refined sugars cause us to be malnourished in direct proportion to how much we consume them. They are partially to blame for the high cancer and heart attack rates we see in America.Think about it, if instead of eating lots of cancer-fighting fruits and vegetables, you choose a lifetime of nutrient-deficient processed food—why would you be surprised if you get throat cancer or any other form of cancer for that matter? Duh!

Amarillo, TX – Fr. Frank today announced more details of the fourth element of the four-pronged attack that Priests for Life is launching this year against the abortion industry, as described in this press release from a few days ago: http://bit.ly/wqSoLq.
"Prayer is the foundation of all we do," Fr. Frank explained. "This year, we are expanding our prayer campaign (PrayerCampaign.org) and asking every Church to provide its congregation with the tools they need to pray each day for an end to abortion. In particular, we have special prayers throughout the year corresponding to the Feasts and liturgical seasons that many Christians observe. The prayer cards are offered to Churches free of charge."
"Most immediately, this Saturday begins a Novena (a nine-day period of prayer) in preparation for the sad commemoration of Roe vs. Wade, which has resulted in more death and destruction than anything else. Prayer cards can still be ordered and the prayer downloaded at PrayerCampaign.org," Fr. Frank stated.
Another aspect of the Prayer Campaign is the Facebook cause "Pray to End Abortion," now at over 80,000 members. This cause can be accessed at ProLifePrayers.com. Priests for Life will also invite people to become "Prayer Partners for Life" and do such things as bring special pro-life prayer intentions to their pastors and promote prayer resources which will be generated throughout the year. Pastors can obtain prayer resources corresponding to each Sunday of the year at priestsforlife.org/liturgy.
These activities will be coordinated in such a way as to prepare for the 40th anniversary of Roe vs. Wade on January 22, 2013. "Between now and then, we will launch several initiatives which will grow through the course of the year and culminate in a special commemorative service on the 40th anniversary of Roe. Multiple pro-life ministries from many denominations will co-sponsor that service, which will take place in Washington, DC. Now is the time," Fr. Frank pointed out, "to intensify our prayer efforts as never before, that a weakened abortion industry may go out of existence altogether. That's our goal, and we will reach it."
Priests for Life is the nation's largest Catholic pro-life organization dedicated to ending abortion and euthanasia. For more information, visit priestsforlife.org.

I am sure most of you have heard of Curves before and most have not stepped foot in one of their 12+ locations in the Lansing area. The main reason for this … you are not properly informed about the company and what they strive to do for women not only in Lansing but world-wide in there 10,000 locations all over the globe.
The first Curves was established in 1992 in Harlingen, Texas by the founders Gary and Diane Heavin, they came to realize there was no one place where just women could go to workout, talk weight loss and weight loss issues, receive knowledge about food and proper eating habits, find the right mentors and be surrounded by people with the same struggles. The Heavins were right and it was a huge hit right away and less than 10 years later they had opened up over 7,000 Curves locations nation wide.
Curves has become so popular for several reasons. They have combined a killer workout that is easy to follow, only 30 minutes long and incorporates "strength training and sustained cardiovascular activity through safe and effective hydraulic resistance." But the workout is not the only selling point, Curves has a friendly, non-intimidating environment that makes it easier for women to concrete on their goals. There are no world's strongest men there, benching 500 lbs or the latest GQ model dazzling you with his amazing smile and ripped 6 pack abs. You are there with women that have the same outlook on working out, dieting and living healthy.
Other than the workout and its wonderful environment Curves helps with weight management, something almost every woman struggles with sometime in their life. They provide resources such as classes on weight management, online programs for busy women, books on everything from motivation to healthy recipes plus they inform and sell Curves food and vitamin and mineral supplements specifically designed towards women.
The last thing that gives Curves the edge is the onsite motivators. You can schedule an appointment or just drop in and talk to these specialist. They will give you tips and tricks on how to get through the hard parts, keep you on track to hit your goal and be there to celebrate when you do. Most have been there and struggled and know exactly what you are going through. They know that not everyone can be yelled at like they are in boot camp to get results so you will get a personalized motivator that knows what will help you reach your goals best.
Curves truly is the light at the end of the tunnel for women struggling with healthy living or just want to maintain it. From workouts, to weight management to motivation, Curves has incorporated everything a women needs to be successful in healthy living all under one roof. I encourage you to check out their website, stop in and start your path to a healthier, happier you today!

VIA announces 1GHz ARM Cortex A8 Pico-ITX board
Tries its hand away from x86
CHIP DESIGNER VIA has introduced the first Pico-ITX board featuring a 1GHz Cortex A8 system-on-chip (SoC).
VIA, which has been putting out low power x86 chips for years, has finally launched a Pico-ITX board featuring an ARM SoC. The firm launched the VAB-800, which features an 800MHz or 1GHz Freescale Cortex A8 SoC and 1GB of DDR3 RAM.
What sets VIA's board apart from the immensely popular Raspberry Pi, aside from the amount of RAM, is a SATA port and the option of up to 64GB of embedded memory on board. There's also support for two GPUs with dual display support.
VIA's Pico-ITX board is 10x7.2cm, which is about 2cm bigger than the Raspberry Pi in both length and width, however while the two devices are sized similarly, VIA intends its boards to be used in industrial systems. The firm said it will support the device for seven years and quoted an operating temperature range of -20C to 70C.
Epan Wu, head of VIA's Embedded Platform Division said, "The VIA VAB-800 extends our industry leading range of Pico-ITX embedded platforms. As a leader in hardware and software support, VIA can tailor our new ARM based offerings for customers to create systems through starter kits, customization support or offering complete systems for different applications."
VIA said its VAB-800 board is available now but didn't reveal prices, presumably because it doesn't expect to ship single units to customers. µ
