I have written a java utility for key pair generation for RSA encryption. But to encrypt the password, I have to do it in client side javascript
Does anyone has a sample code to do that in javascript? Where I can just pass the public key and the password (string) and get the encrypted password back ? Badly need this.
I tried jCryption and http://www.ohdave.com/rsa/ but couldn't make much out of it. :(
The application doesn't have SSL. Any other secure encryption method/procedure/library will be most welcome.

The state minister in charge of a controversial bill to toughen penalties for leakers of state secrets on Friday flip-flopped on whether the government will consider establishing a code of contact between government officials and journalists.
At a morning press conference, Masako Mori said it is difficult to create such guidelines after saying the previous day that the government will consider doing so. But she later retracted those morning remarks at a House of Councillors' special committee on national security in the afternoon.
"We will study it from various perspectives," Mori said at the upper house committee meeting on the envisioned code of contact, repeating what she said at the panel Thursday.
Critics are concerned that strengthened regulations under the secrecy legislation could undermine the freedom of the press and the public's right to know.
The House of Representatives passed the bill on Tuesday with the backing of the ruling coalition, paving the way for its enactment before the Diet session ends Dec. 6. But opposition lawmakers are calling for more deliberations.
Mori told the upper house panel Friday that the number of "special secrets" under the legislation concerning national security and interests would be fewer than those designated as such since 2007 under the existing guidelines.
She also said journalists who visit the homes of ministers or government officials and eat and drink with them will not be punished as such conduct is considered to be a normal news gathering activity.

Quoted from "servicetechMA"
you need to run a whole new wire from the clock to that box. lol I had to,couldnt resist. Just splice it back together man, it will be fine. strip about an inch of wire off,twist them together.you dont want to WRAP one around the other one,thats not a good connection,they should be intertwined. put the two wires next to each other,make a v,and twist from the bottom of the v. your probably saying i know how to twist a wire lol. but a strong connection is a good thing. make sure you twist the wires together,in the way the wire nut tightens,or the wire nut your gonna put on will twist them apart,and you will have an intermitent connection.

Saturday Nights & Sunday Mornings
- Record Label: Geffen
- Release Date: Mar 25, 2008
- Critic score
- Publication
- By date
Saturday Nights and Sunday Mornings is a rock record in the grandest and most polished sense of the word: it wears its lineage proudly, and imparts emotions directly and brazenly honestly no matter how pretty or shiny the picture is.
The band stretches out in some new directions on the trance-y 'Washington Square' and incorporates psychedelic overtones into 'Insignificant' and 'Le Ballet d'Or.' 'You Can't Count on Me' sounds like the flip side of a Bruce Springsteen love song, and such tracks as '1492,' 'Cowboys' and 'Come Around' rock with sweeping dynamic energy.
Adam Duritz and company haven't sounded so committed, so determined, so tuneful, in years.
The disc's first half, produced by Pixies vet Gil Norton, is surprisngly fast and scrappy. But the pace slackens in the mellower remainder, produced by Brian Deck. [28 Mar 2008, p.65]
On the harder-rocking half, Duritz is nearly emo-esque in his self-loathing.... The disk's Sunday Morning half, is more acoustic, quieter, reflective. But after the epic bender that precedes it, it's also just kind of a drag. [Apr 2008, p.78]
The hair-shirt single "You Can't Count on Me" and the cheerily grim "Hanging Tree" are little masterpieces of pop craft, their arrangements and Duritz's invitingly petulant wail often echoing golden-era R.E.M. Sometimes that craft is enough: The latter song is so packed with guitar fireworks that its buzz-killing lines about freezing to death barely register.
UncutThere are moments--notably 'You Can't Count On me'--but the band behind him are wringing diminishing returns from their polished country-rock. [May 2008, p.92]
It's an album of extremes, often capturing the far fringes of the band's sound, with little in between to act as a buffer.
Considered as a whole, or even as two self-serving parts, Saturday Nights And Sunday Mornings is so generic and unenlightening that you will probably not remember hearing it within an hour or so.
Listened to--as the band recommend--in one sitting, it is trudging and effortful.
The electric guitar interludes sound obligatory, particularly when paired with lyrics that don't approach immediate or visceral
It's only fair to consider Saturday Nights, Sunday Mornings in the context of the rest of the Crows' catalog, and with that in mind--to borrow a phrase from Duritz--this one might fade into the grey.

Oct 5, 2010More of the same music from Counting Crows, a band that I've loved now for over 15 years, but felt a bit cold about this piece. Overall, thisMore of the same music from Counting Crows, a band that I've loved now for over 15 years, but felt a bit cold about this piece. Overall, this is not a particularly serious album, and it hurts the quality of the songs for me, which feel very fluffly overall. A few standouts ("Cowboys", "Washington Square", "Le Ballet Dor") are filled in with mostly forgettable stuff ("Insignificant" being especially well named). If you like Counting Crows a lot, I would probably buy it, but there's nothing here that distinguishes itself from better albums like "Recovering the Satellites".… Full Review »

here and here). I think they're trying to skirt the line between beginner friendly and advanced, and the issue is that they make the obstacle easy to roll, but kinda dangerous if you ratchet up the speed and aren't ready for the drop. From what I hear, almost everyone who has crashed and been hurt on that obstacle has been people hitting it a bit fast, but leaning forward like they wanted to roll it (which results in an unexpected launch into a front wheel landing and endo, especially if you mix panic braking in there somewhere).

LOOK: "Supergirl" Introduces Superman in First Family Photo
After a week off, we're back!
You may have seen this floating around different web sites this week, but if you haven't, here's Francesco Francavilla's "tinkering" with a "1972 Batman" concept. If DC doesn't hate money, they should probably get on with publishing this.
Tom Spurgeon shares his 170+ tips for attending Comicon. PHEW! I'm probably skipping SDCC again this year, but that's a pretty comprehensive list if you're attending.
So I guess the big news this week is that Zenith is getting collected. Here's the problem, though – it appears that Rebellion doesn't have the permission or blessing (depending on who you believes owns it) of Grant Morrison and Steve Yeowell, and they're printing it in what seems like an underhanded fashion. I'd love to read Zenith, but I think I'll skip this version until they can come to some agreement with the actual creators.
In the "sort-of" comics category, Kelly Thompson writes about fictional dealbreakers, including her personal experience with Wonder Woman #7. It's an interesting thing to think about.
This is a nice piece about Karen Berger and Vertigo, and of course they get a quote from Dan DiDio, which led to this very good response to said quote.
Robot 6 links to this article about changing the newspaper comics page. It's funny because it's so very, very sad.
I'm not completely sure if working in comics is like dating, but that's still a pretty funny post. Everyone wants to be Chloe Moretz!
I don't always think Tucker Stone is that funny, but he can be, and this week, he and Abhay turn "Comics of the Weak" into Comics Alliance, and the results are glorious, because they nail it.
Do cover blurbs matter? I understand the argument here, but I still don't think they matter, because I'm not sure I trust them. It's cool to get good ones, though!
Chris Sims writes about Uncanny X-Men #183. If you remember UXM #183, you'll know why this is a perfect issue for Chris Sims to write about, and he does a wonderful job with it. He believes that this would never be published today, and I agree, but for completely different reasons.
POLITICAL and SOCIAL ISSUES!
Hey, look, yet another man claims that rape is legitimate if the woman doesn't take the correct precautions. I really feel like I need to apologize for being a man at least once a week, because men say some pretty stupid things quite often.
So the CEO of McDonald's actually told a young girl who asked him a question that McDonald's doesn't sell junk food. Yes, he really did. Here's a breakdown of the many lies contained in his very short answer.
I'm sure you've heard about the meltdown certain Fox News commentators had when they found out that the percentage of female breadwinners keeps going up. Here's the original broadcast with all the hand-wringing by, it should be noted, four men. One of them, Erick Erickson, clarified what he meant, which probably made it worse. Others, of course, wrote about the idiocy of these men, but the most glorious response was Fox's own Megyn Kelly, who tore into Lou Dobbs and Erickson on her own show. Kelly's an interesting case study in why I'm not a conservative – she is fiercely devoted to women's issues, because she's a woman. Conservatives – at least the conservatives who end up in politics or bloviate on Fox News – seem to possess empathy only about those things that affect them personally. So if some angry conservative has a gay son, suddenly he doesn't think gay marriage is too bad. Kelly is a woman, so she's very aggressive about making women's issues. Liberals might not be any more compassionate than conservatives, but at least they try to express empathy for people who aren't exactly like they are. Why shouldn't we care about discrimination even if we ourselves aren't discriminated against?
Here's a story about a man who killed his wife's lover and was acquitted. Why? One important detail: the incident took place in Florida. 'NUFF SAID!
I hope you've heard about the interracial Cheerios commercial and the asshats who are objecting to it. Racists of the world, stand up and be counted so we may mock you!
Animals you didn't know existed. I actually knew three of the animals on the list, which at least made me believe the others weren't made up, because some of them are freaky.
Poor Zosia Mamet! You must feel pity!!!!
Well, that's all for this week. Have a great day, everyone. It's June – let's celebrate!
It should be noted that Mr. Francavilla has added Joker '72 to the list, and it may be my favorite one yet. Please DC, MAKE THIS BOOK HAPPEN.
I always try to find nutrition facts online before I eat anywhere. Based on my findings, I would say people are much better off eating at McDonalds than most other fast food places or chain restaurants, especially other burger joints. The net effect of the movie Supersize Me was positive, in that it compelled the chains to make nutrition facts available to the public, but citing that film as if it were an academic source is a bit like citing Cousin Bubba with the white hood in a report on the effects of desegregation.
Deal breaker: the idiotic and mean spirited battle of egos between Peter David and most of the original Image crew. His, and (some of) theirs were the last comics I was reading when I entered college. I let myself get caught up in their letter page mud slinging and it just turned me off from the medium for a long time. I still hardly pick anything up w/ David or Larsen on the credits, despite being a fan of both.
Just made the whole scene look like children–and this is an industry built on childish action.
"I really feel like I need to apologize for being a man at least once a week"
Yeah, don't do this.
I live too close to Florida.
Actually saw a Fossa at the zoo last weekend. First I'd ever heard of it, and man, I would not want that thing chasing after me. It wasn't doing anything other than just laying in the shade, but it just looks mean.
The Raccoon Dog, or Tanuki, has managed to escape extinction thanks to the adaptive mechanism of turning to stone upon pressing Down and B.
I never really back people who love to criticize the fast food industry. Yeah, the CEO of McDonald's was misleading in his responses, but does anybody really think that most of the food they sell there is healthy? If you want a fucking apple, go buy an apple. Let the people who want a cheap burger every once in a while get their cheap burger. Also, having a 9-year-old ask questions like that is just as disingenuous. Does the kid really give a shit about what she's eating? Or is that her parents feeding her lines (along with an insufferably researched diet)?
Also, thanks Internet racists! Where would YouTube be without you?
I forgot about my Zenith theory, so here goes:
I'm wondering if this is a gambit by Rebellion to see if Morrison and Yeowell will come to an agreement. Like, when this goes on sale and it sells out really quickly, Rebellion will have 100,000 pounds in their coffers, and they'll say, hey, GMozz, this is how much demand there is, and I bet we had to turn away more. Come to an agreement?
And then those copies of the trades that were supposed to have been out (and pulped) will show up from the warehouse they're in (or wherever) and they'll finally be able to sell those.
This way Rebellion makes GMozz and Yeowell look like dicks if they fight it (you're keeping a book away from the public!), raises a slick batch of cash if there's any ensuing legal battle, and shows Mozzer and Yeowell that people want the book, so come to an agreement! Worst case, it goes to court, Morrison and Yeowell win, Rebellion refunds people's money, but GMozz and Yeowell can take the book to someone else who will publish it.
Whichever way it goes, I think we'll get an affordable Zenith collection before we get Miracle/Marvelman collected.
Travis: That's not a bad idea, and it would be nice if that's what's happening here. I did read something by someone who seems to know what they're talking about that Morrison doesn't have a leg to stand on, and I'll have to see if that's true, because it would make me feel better about ordering it. Right now, I'll probably skip it, but I might change my mind.
Stuff like this is annoying. Ownership should be clearer, damn it!

Amazon.com Review
Walsleben covers why and how we sleep, what's keeping us awake, aging and how it affects stages of sleep, and physical and emotional conditions that can interfere with getting enough sleep. She helps us understand what is disrupting our own sleep, with advice from simple lifestyle changes to herbs, supplements, drugs, and foods. And she provides tons of tips, such as these:
- If you have a glow-in-the-dark clock, turn it around so you won't see it when you wake up at night. We all wake up several times during the night, and watching the clock will reinforce the "awake feeling" and make it more difficult to get back to sleep.
- Avoid caffeine--including coffee, tea, soft drinks, and chocolate--and stimulating medications from afternoon on. It takes 3 to 7 hours to rid your system of caffeine completely.
- If you have a new baby, nap when your baby sleeps. Aim for a 30-minute nap in the early afternoon. A longer nap will make you sleep more deeply and awake feeling groggy and grumpy.
- If nighttime sex leaves you wide awake (while your partner sleeps like a baby beside you), try scheduling romance early in the evening, or delay it until early in the morning.

|"Final Crisis: Requiem" sparked a discussion about death in the DCU last Saturday at Fan Expo 2008
Dan Didio led the DC: A Guide to Your Universe panel last Saturday at Fan Expo in Toronto, and while there were no major announcements, the DC Comics Executive Editor and his creative cohorts -- fan favorite creator Keith Giffen (âReign in Hellâ and âAmbush Bugâ) superstar artist Ethan Van Scriver (âThe Flash: Rebirthâ) and rising star penciller Francis Manapul âLegion of Super-Heroesâ) -- answered an hourâs worth of thoughtful and thought-provoking questions from the assembled members of DC Nation.
Right out of the gates, a fan asked why Martian Manhunter was killed off in âFinal Crisis,â to which Didio responded, âWe wanted to show the threat of who Libra is. Look at the history of Martian Manhunter. He is one of those characters who are extremely powerful on the level of Superman. In some places, even stronger than Superman -- change shapes, turn invisible. Except for that fire thing, heâs got it made. So we wanted to show how strong and how dangerous Libra.â
Staying with the theme of death, Didio said, âI donât think I ever said Bart Allen was dead. I am serious.â
âWe all wish it,â added Giffen to a chorus laughs.
âThere were changes that were going to be made,â continued Didio. âThere were stories that were going to be told and there were definite crossovers taking place at the moment of the death of Bart Allen. So there is a good chance there is going to be more resolutions to that character and what happened to him in the very near future or the very far future.â
Indeed, in Rich Johnsonâs first post-Comic-Con edition of LYING IN THE GUTTERS, the CBR columnist shared news from the floor that Geoff Johns was overheard talking about Bart Allen with Manapul, who draws âLegion of Super-Heroes.â
|"The Flash: Rebirth" begins in January 2009
Following a discussion regarding the possibility of DCU proper being big enough for not one but four Flashes, Van Sciver revealed that one of the subjects he and Geoff Johns must address in âThe Flash: Rebirthâ is going to be to organize and answer that very question. âWe are going to show you how unique and individual each of those Flashes are and what theyâre purpose is and what they can all do,â he explained. âAnd to reinstate Barry Allen as the King of the Flashes. Thatâs what we are out to do.â
Van Sciver also teased that he had pages of âThe Flash: Rebirthâ #1 with him in the room and had shared them with Manapul. âBut no one else can see them. Itâs a company perk,â quipped Van Sciver, to which Manapul deadpanned, âTheyâre not bad.â
Van Sciver, the self proclaimed (next to Geoff Johns) second biggest Flash fan working for DC Comics, said he has been asking for the return of Barry Allen since he started with the publisher back to his days on âImpulse.â âI used to ask if we could weave the ghost of Barry Allen, or at least the essence, into a story. I think he is so important to DCU. To me, he is just as important as Superman because he was the very first Silver Age hero, he ushered in the Silver Age and we need him back. Nowâs the time for Barry to be back and I think as a result of Barry Allenâs return, all the other pieces will fall into line.
âI want to see Barry, I want to see Wally, I want to see Jay, I hope to see Bart someday. Iâd like to see Jesse Quick and Johnny Quick and Max Mercury, I want to see them all working together and functioning as a group. By the way, one of those I let slip.â
|The DC Multiverse is explored in "Superman Beyond" #1, on sale this week
Jesse Quick is active in Johnsâ âJustice Society of Americaâ as Liberty Belle, while neither Johnny Quick nor Max Mercury is currently active in DCU proper on New Earth.
Didio later said, âOur Earth, New Earth is not Earth-1. Weâve pretty well explained that as much as possible. As of right now, I can tell you there is no Earth-1.â
Speaking of the Multiverse, Didio said it would be explored in this weekâs âFinal Crisis: Superman Beyond.â
Didio confirmed there is not one but two weekly series in the works to follow âTrinity,â that James Robinson is working on a âJustice Society of Americaâ project and that Matt Sturges will be penning a villain centric series that will be announced soon.
The executive editor also said the recent âHawkmanâ Special by Jim Starlin was an effort to test the waters for the character. âIt was to create an air of mystery around the character and to create questions around the character. With the chance that people might get interested and discuss the character and want to read about him further down the line.â
As the discussion once again turned to death, Didio said there were three characters he had difficulty seeing coming back to the land of the living: Ted Kord, Ralph Dibny and Sue Dibny.
Van Sciver jumped in and said, quite seriously, âWeâre discussing him. We want a stretchy Black Lantern,â referring to next summerâs âGreen Lanternâ storyline âBlackest Night.â
|"The Legion of Super-Heroes: Enemy Rising," the first collection of Jim Shooter and Francis Manapul's run, goes on sale in October
Didio said Grant Morrisonâs âFinal Crisisâ and Kurt Busiekâs âTrinityâ will, once everything is said and done, tie-in one another. âThe story of âTrinityâ takes place prior to âFinal Crisisâ but the events from âTrinityâ will play out following âFinal Crisis,â so it [âTrinityâ] does have repercussions.â
Following a question from the audience, Didio said the rumor that legendary writer Jim Shooter was off and then back on âLegion of Super-Heroesâ deserved no validation. Van Sciver praised Manapulâs work on the series and said he would love to see a Saturn Girl solo series.
Didio used the term âstrugglingâ in terms of sales to describe the titles âManhunter,â âBlue Beetle,â âSimon Darkâ and âJonah Hexâ but did not say any cancellations were imminent. He noted to mix things up on âJonah Hex,â which is usually told in âone and doneâ stories, scribes Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray are writing a six-issue arc that will feature some classic DCU western characters including, most notably, Bat Lash.
From Bat Lash to Batman, Didio said there were âbig plansâ for Dick Grayson.
He also confirmed âBlack Lightning: Year Oneâ is coming in January.

The 63-year-old star of films such as "Jean de Florette" and
"Green Card" was held for questioning after he fell from his
scooter mid-afternoon, slightly injuring his elbow.
No-one else was hurt in the accident.
One of France's best-known actors for roles in more than a
hundred films, Depardieu has recently grabbed headlines for
the wrong reasons.
The incident came just months after a car driver filed a
legal complaint for assault and battery against Depardieu in
August following an altercation in Paris.
Last year, Depardieu outraged fellow passengers by urinating
in the aisle of an Air France flight as it prepared to take
off, forcing the plane to turn back to its parking spot.
A passenger on the flight said Depardieu appeared to be drunk
and insisted he be allowed to use the bathroom during
takeoff, when passengers must remain seated.

In its yearly briefing to the UN climate summit, the World Meteorological Organization said that 2011 is, so far, the world's tenth warmest year on record, despite the warming being masked by cooling La Nina conditions, reported BBC News.
The La Nina event - which was the strongest of the past 60 years - was linked with many of this year's troubling climate events, such as the drought in east Africa, the central Pacific, and the southern U.S., and flooding in southern Africa, eastern Australia, and southern Asia.
At the summit, which took place in Durban, South Africa, delegates discussed key issues. For one, global warming is getting a cold reception from Canada, which may formally renounce the Kyoto Protocol. This protocol to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change is aimed at fighting global warming, and is part of an international environmental treaty with the goal of achieving greenhouse gas stability.
Canada is worried its economic development may be stunted if the country takes stronger measures against greenhouse gas emissions than the U.S.
Russia and Japan are also unwilling to make further emission cuts under the protocol, though it is not yet known if they will formally withdraw alongside Canada.
Developing countries are strongly pushing for rich nations to pledge further emission cuts under the protocol. As noted in a report by the International Energy Agency, the need to keep the rise of global average temperature below 2C requires that emissions peak and fall at around 2020, which U.S. deputy climate negotiator John Pershing doubts will happen. He feels so because he does not think governments will change their existing pledges on emissions before that year.
"The idea that countries would change their current pledges that they listed in the Cancun agreements [from the previous year's summit held in Mexico] seems unlikely to me," said Pershing. "I don't see the major economies shifting those actions."
Countries worldwide are split on the issue of curbing these emissions and pursuing economic competitiveness. Many countries insist that curbs are vital in defending against climate impacts, including rising sea levels.
The WMO mentioned that the 13 warmest years on record have all occurred since 1997, and that, this summer, Arctic sea ice melted to the smallest volume ever recorded.
"Our science is solid," said WMO secretary-general Michael Jarraud. "It proves unequivocally that the world is warming and that this warming is due to human activities.
"Concentrations of greenhouse gases are very rapidly approaching levels consistent with a 2.0-2.4C rise in average global temperatures, which scientists believe could trigger far-reaching and irreversible changes in our Earth, biosphere, and oceans."

Showgirls Strip Club Bouncers Broke Patron's Ankle in Bathroom Brawl
If you walk past the Miami-Dade County courthouse this week, you'll probably see a clean-cut Cuban in slacks, a dress shirt, and rimless glasses. Carlos Morales will be holding a large white sign with black lettering that reads, "Judge Victoria Platzer does not represent justice, only the will of the insurance company."
You might assume Morales is just another South Florida foreclosure victim. Ask him his story, though, and you'll realize your mistake. "I was at this strip club," Morales explains in Spanish, pulling out a binder. He opens it to a large, glossy photo of his bloody, swollen face. A more gruesome pic shows his left ankle with a six-inch surgical cut. "The bouncer attacked me."
Morales's legal fight began October 4, 2009, when he visited Showgirls, a club in Cutler Bay where the Turnpike meets South Dixie Highway. Morales was sipping a drink when a stripper started chatting him up. When his eyes kept falling on her bare breasts, she told him to go ahead and touch them, Morales claims. "That's what they do to get you to pay for a private dance," he says. Instead of paying up, Morales went to the toilet. Bad decision.
A bouncer followed him. "What the fuck are you doing with my girl?" the bouncer asked before allegedly punching Morales. When two more bouncers joined the fray, Morales says, he was thrown through the bathroom partition. His shoulder was dislocated and his left ankle was shattered.

But when cops arrived, the bouncers claimed Morales had been caught stealing perfume. He was charged with battery and attempted theft. The theft charge was dropped, and a judge allowed Morales to attend anger management classes to avoid the battery rap. Yet the incident cost him his job. His ankle required surgery.
Morales sued Showgirls a few weeks later. This past January, a jury awarded him $56,085.31. Judge Platzer tacked on another $10,000 for future physical suffering. But Morales isn't satisfied. He wanted $500,000 and thinks he would have gotten it had the judge and his lawyer, Alan Anchell, done their jobs. "They hid evidence and manipulated the jury," he claims.
Anchell insists he did his best for Morales. Meanwhile, Platzer says she cannot comment on an open case. Showgirls co-owner Michael Laughlin claims Morales started the fight and is lying about it to extort the club. "Carlos Morales has this grand story," he says, "but my guys did not go in there and beat him up."
Morales plans to complain to the Florida Bar about the lawyer and the judge, and to file for an appeal. His one-man picket line continues.

Things to Know About Un-Common Auditions
Auditions for Un-Common shows are open to all those interested within the age ranges specified. No previous acting experience or affiliation with the theatre company is necessary.
An auditioner will audition with many actors and will be offered a role at the total discretion of the director, choreographer and music director.

A beloved Manhattan Beach reading teacher was immortalized before her family, colleagues and the children she taught when PS 195 dedicated its refurbished library to the memory of Sandra Rosuck.
The educator, who died in 2005, was eulogized with fond words by guest speakers who joined dignitaries and members of the community on April 23 to help open the Sandra Rosuck Library Media Center at the elementary school on Irwin Street, between Shore Boulevard and Hampton Avenue, where the teacher was also a chapter leader for the United Federation of Teachers from 1995 to 2001.
Her work with the organization garnered her an exemplary service award from the American Federation of Teachers.
The Brooklyn-born Rosuck attended Public Schools 188 and 225 in Brighton Beach, and graduated from Midwood High School in 1954, where she was voted "Most Popular Senior."
"She was a bright, very witty, very intelligent and quite a lovely woman who reflected her inner beauty," said Cheryl Kastner, a reading teacher who worked with Rosuck.
Now, her name will live on at the school where she taught, says Kastner, adding that the automated and computerized library — revamped with funds from Councilmember Mike Nelson (D-Brooklyn) — is modeled after a boat and features a marine theme, complete with "bleachers" for seating areas, a labyrinth of new books, plus a SmartBoard for teachers.
Among the first budding bookworms to take a word journey at the freshly-minted archive were Rosuck's two young grandchildren.
"It just makes the kids want to sit in there and read," Kastner said.

Italian lawmakers on Saturday again failed to elect a new president for the country in their fifth round of voting, with the largest share of ballots left blank in a stalling tactic by parties.
No candidate won a majority of votes in the joint session of parliament, with the highest number -- 210 ballots -- going to Stefano Rodota, a respected academic and human rights advocate.
A majority of 504 is required to get elected.
A second round of voting will be held in parliament later on Saturday starting at 1330 GMT.
Rodota's candidacy has been put forward by the anti-establishment Five Star Movement, which has called on the other parties to vote for him.
Two candidates proposed by the centre-left -- former trade unionist Franco Marini and former European Commission president Romano Prodi -- failed to get elected in voting on Thursday and Friday and have withdrawn their candidacies.

In a duel for first place in the AFC North, the Cincinnati Bengals found another way to win a close game.
Carson Palmer threw a 20-yard touchdown pass to Andre Caldwell with 22 seconds left to cap an 80-yard drive, and the Bengals escaped with a 17-14 victory over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday.
All five of Cincinnati's games this season have been decided by seven points for fewer. It appeared as if the Bengals (4-1) were destined to come out on the short end of this one until Palmer masterfully directed the final drive _ with the help of three yellow flags.
An illegal contact penalty against the Ravens' Chris Carr and an unnecessary roughness call against Ray Lewis preceded the topper, a pass interference penalty against Frank Walker on third and 16 from the Baltimore 30.
On the next play, Palmer found Caldwell over the middle for the winning score.

Lesson learned this week: short of criticizing Glenn Beck, the best way to generate a response from Mormon readers is to ask for book recommendations.
Indeed, last week's article soliciting potential additions to my Thoughtful Mormon Reading List produced scores of e-mails and online comments, with a final list weighing in at about 200 books.
I have to confess, I didn't have time to do extensive research on each of the titles. I did, however, read at least a little bit about each book recommended (some of you made it easy on me by providing synopses in your e-mails) and below I've compiled a list of eight books I thought best fit the criteria I outlined last week.
Now before you read on, I should include two important caveats. First, I can't vouch for the "truth" of the ideas and philosophies illustrated in these books. One reason is that I haven't actually read all of them, but more importantly, I think I'd be hard pressed to find any book (apart from the Standard Works) that contains nothing but capital-T truth. In a way, that's what makes reading and studying so exhilarating — and essential to Mormon life. If we are to spend our mortal existences searching for truth, it will require sifting through a lot of not-entirely-true ideas and gleaning whatever good they contain.
Second, this list hardly represents an exhaustive catalog of books to be read by intellectual Latter-day Saints. There are, of course, many, many more that are worth studying. If you're interested in the complete list of books readers suggested in the past week, feel free to e-mail me, and I'd be happy to send it along.
And with that, I present to you the 2010 Arbitrary, Not-at-all-exhaustive Thoughtful Mormon Reading List:
"Three Cups of Tea: One Man's Mission to Promote Peace, One School at a Time," by Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin
This book describes the work of a mountain climber-turned-humanitarian who is convinced that curing the problems in the Middle East must begin with educating young women in the region. The Central Asia Institute, co-founded by Mortenson, has built more than 131 schools in Pakistan and Afghanistan to achieve this purpose. Earlier this year, he spoke at a BYU forum, and his message provoked an immense amount of discussion on campus. With the threats posed by radical Islam today, there are few geopolitical issues more pertinent that solving the Middle East debacle.
The Apocrypha
As one reader pointed out, "The Doctrine & Covenants tells us that there is much in the Apocrypha that is beneficial if we read it with the Spirit." Indeed, general authorities have occasionally quoted from the ancient text (which is not a part of LDS canon) in teaching eternal principles. The Standard Works, of course, are more enlightened, but the Apocrypha can provide complementary insights to our scripture study.
The Koran
In the same vein, more than one reader suggested The Koran. Given the current political climate, and the fiery debate over the proposed Islamic cultural center near Ground Zero, this may prove to be a controversial recommendation. But as one reader argued, "At the very least, it seems to me that reading the Koran would be essential in understanding a major world religion that seems very misunderstood."

What is the point at which a non sequitur morphs into the incongruous? Is it predicated upon contextual ideas leading up to the statement, or is it subjective based on the conclusion of the idea being propagated? I'm just curious if there are any hard/fast rules, or is it subjective -- like finding something funny or not?

I see it as somewhat orthogonal, though often related. incongruous means "not in harmony or keeping with the surroundings or other aspects" (New Oxford American Dictionary), while a non sequitur is something that doesn't follow logically from the premises. A non sequitur is thus often incongruous, but might not always be: in a series of collected non sequiturs, they would not be incongruous.[1] Nor would a non sequitur be incongruous if the speaker were known to be subject to dementia.
For me, the distinctive element is: incongruous is linked to the absence of harmony, while non sequitur relates to the absence of logic.
Note [1]: I believe there are quite a few comic strip series that follow this scheme, but can't think of any (in English), so suggestions in comments would be welcome.
A non-sequitur is always incongruous, in that it does not follow (literally) from the preceding conversation. Did you have something more specific in mind?
It is 100% subjective. The connection may make complete sense to me, the speaker, while you as the listener simply "don't know what I'm talking about". To you, it's a non sequitur, to me, I'm just speaking within my own world view and not bending my speech to ensure that it will be close enough to yours that it "makes sense".

I stopped in at Platypus Marine, the full-service shipyard, yacht-repair facility and steel-boat manufacturer on Marine Drive, and visited with Charlie Crane, director of sales and marketing.
We toured the Commander Building, Platypus' large, turquoise-blue heated shop building that is currently home to more than a half-dozen commercial boats and yachts in varying degrees of repair.
One of them, the Puget Sound Pilots boat Strait of Juan de Fuca, was hauled out of the water early last week and will remain in the Commander Building until later this week.
Capt. Charlie said the 74-foot boat is undergoing its semiannual out-of-service period to allow for maintenance of the boat's critical systems, including her twin 900-horsepower marine diesel engines and Hamilton water jet drives.
Also, the boat's crew will give the composite hull and superstructure a new coat of wax.
The Strait of Juan de Fuca and her sister vessel, Puget Sound, were built in 1999 by the Nordlund Boat Co. and are the only two pilot boats the Tacoma yacht-maker has built.
Northern Song, a 15-year-old Metalcraft, is another project ensconced in the comfort of the temperature-controlled environment of the Commander Building.
According to Capt. Charlie, the ventilation system that services the six cabins below the main deck is being replaced on the 84-foot Alaskan charter boat.
Personnel fabricated and installed new stainless-steel railings and removed and shipped the anchor and anchor chain to a vendor for a new galvanized coating.
Charlie added that in addition to the captain's punch list of odds and ends that needed attending to, personnel designed and installed custom seating on the fly bridge and placed an additional monitor in the captain's quarters to allow him to keep tabs on the vessel's navigational systems.
Pacific Baron is sitting forward of Northern Song on the building's west side.
She is a commercial fishing vessel that hails from Nanaimo, B.C.
Capt. Charlie said personnel replaced the transducer for the fish finder, sandblasted the 54-foot fiberglass boat and made a couple of minor hull repairs prior to applying fresh coats of primer and paint.
Charlie added that she should be back in the water by Friday.
Allstar is wedged in between Northern Star and Pacific Baron. She is a 60-foot commercial fishing vessel from Seattle.
She, too, had a transducer replaced and had her hull sandblasted.
On Thursday, soundings were being taken of her bottom to determine if she needs any plating repair prior to a fresh coat of paint.
Platypus Marine also has a U.S. Navy paint barge sitting on the hard that was towed to Port Angeles by Western Towboat of Seattle.
Capt. Charlie said personnel sandblasted the barge and the scaffolding that is attached to it. Necessary plating repairs were then made to the 26-foot-by-26-foot barge, and in accordance with strict Navy guidelines, the vessel received new paint.
Western Towboat will return to Port Angeles in the middle of the week to tow the barge back to her home port.
New life in old boat
Over in the Port Angeles Boat Yard on Marine Drive west of Platypus, Julie Marie was hauled out earlier in the week and sits on the hard.
She is a 54-foot commercial fishing boat that hails from Neah Bay, though I suspect she hasn't been a working boat for every bit of 10 years.
At first blush, she appears to be at the end of a useful commercial life, but her current owner sees through the layers of neglect borne of an idle existence and is beginning to breathe new life into her.
On Thursday, Certified Inspection Services of Federal Way did ultrasound testing of the boat's bottom to test the thickness of the steel plate.
Although I am unaware of those results, they apparently were satisfactory because I understand the owner is going forward with the renovations he envisions and convert the vessel to a crabber.
Back in the water
Thursday afternoon, Dan Schmid — also known as "Commander" along the waterfront — put Pacific Quest back in the water using the boat yard's 70-ton TraveLift.
She is a brand-new crabber that was built by Millennium Marine in Escuminac, New Brunswick, Canada.
The vessel was trucked to Canal Boat Yard in Seattle a little over three weeks ago to have a host of journeymen finish the boat.
Doug Lambert of Pacific Fiberglass did the finish glasswork and installed the fish boxes and keel cooler as well as the final painting.
Puget Sound Hydraulics designed and installed the complete hydraulic system, and Elmore Electrical installed all of the electrical components.
Jeremy Cornelson of Port Angeles, who operates Blue Water Boatworks and can often be found in far-flung locales working on any manner of marine craft, installed the vessel's plumbing, mast and attendant hardware.
Jeremy said he checked his AIS vessel-tracking system at 8 a.m. Friday morning and saw that Pacific Quest was off Westport and heading south to her home of Fortuna, Calif., and would arrive in time for the opening of crab season.
No. 10 is launched
Westport Shipyard launched Annastar, a 50-meter tri-deck superyacht, on Nov. 10.
She is the 10th 164-foot yacht that Westport has built in Port Angeles since opening its manufacturing plant at 637 Marine Drive in November 2003.
The typical 50-meter Westport yacht has a beam of 30 feet 10 inches and draws a little over 7 feet.
She can sleep a dozen folks in six staterooms and has a crew of 13.
The yacht cruises at 20 knots with a top speed of 24 knots and has a range of between 3,000 and 5,000 nautical miles, depending upon how quickly the owner wants to get from here to there.
Annastar, which has an undisclosed East Coast owner, stopped at the Port Angeles Boat Haven last week for a load of diesel as she made her way south.
I understand the captain was asked how far south he was going.
His reply: "Until I find 76-degree weather."
Temporary resident
A new Westport 112 that was built in Hoquiam has taken up temporary residence in the Port Angeles Boat Haven.
According to Katie Wakefield, administrative assistant at Westport Shipyard, the company will be shipping the yacht to Florida by Yacht Path from either Victoria or Nanaimo, B.C., and she is scheduled to arrive in time for the Miami Boat Show on Feb. 14-18.
Load of logs
POS Jade is moored to Port of Port Angeles' Terminal 3.
The 577-foot-long cargo ship with a 98-foot beam is being loaded with approximately 5 million board feet of debarked logs that are destined for China.
She is the 13th and final log ship to be loaded with cargo in Port Angeles this year.
When the final load numbers are in for POS Jade, the yearly total of logs loaded aboard ships in Port Angeles should exceed by a hairbreadth the 65 million board feet that was projected for all of 2012 — which is also the projected volume for 2013.
Maintenance work
Tesoro Petroleum did not bunker any vessels last week because Matrix Systems of Bellingham was replacing some piping and valves at Tesoro's tank farm on Ediz Hook.
The petroleum company site should be up and running again this week.
David G. Sellars is a Port Angeles resident and former Navy boatswain's mate who enjoys boats and strolling the waterfronts.
Items involving boating, port activities and the North Olympic Peninsula waterfronts are always welcome.
