ZTerm is a terminal emulation program for the Macintosh. In its day, many people used it to connect to Bulletin Board Systems and download files. Now we have the internet. Its still a useful utility for those systems that only offer dialup connections and for connecting to devices through a serial port, like many routers. For newer Macintoshs that don't have a normal serial port, ZTerm can talk to ports on USB to serial adapters, through the appropriate driver software supplied with the adapter.

this is obsolete.
Just use
screen /dev/tty.XXX 115200
i use this with a keyspan serial adapter to talk to microcontrollers. perfectly simple terminal program (as far as i use it - it could have a ton of features, but i wouldn't know). exactly what i need.
Yes, I too use this in combination with a keyspan usb-serial connector to configure Cisco gear. Works great!
ZTerm + USB to Serial adaptor = great for programming Cisco gear. On a Mac, too - some Windows users can't seem to figure that something other than HyperTerminal will work.

Vermeil Plating:
Pronounced "vermay," vermeil is an electroplating process in which 14K gold or higher is coated over sterling silver. Officially designated by the jewelry industry, items may only be sold as vermeil if they have a minimum thickness of 100 millionths of an inch (2.5 microns) of gold over the silver. Regular gold plating is less than 2.5 microns.
The "vermeil" technique of plating sterling silver with gold originated in France in the 1750s. It differs from "gold filled" or "gold plated" in terms of the thickness or thinness of the microns over sterling silver. "Gold filled" pieces have a much thicker layer, between 15 and 45 microns, which is mechanically bonded to the base metal with heat and pressure. Vermeil is a more expensive version of "gold plated". It does not wear off as quickly as gold plating does. However, over time, vermeil wears off and therefore will require re-plating.
Gold/Platinum Embraced Silver or Bronze:
Our platinum and gold embraced collections feature layers of platinum or gold over sterling silver or bronze for a lustrous, radiant finish everywhere you look and touch.
To care for your plated jewelry items:
Tourmaline occurs in virtually every color of the spectrum, with an unlimited range of solid and mixed colors in all imaginable shades. According to an ancient Egyptian legend, this is the result of the gemstone traveling along a rainbow from the Earth's heart, up to the sun. On its journey, the legend says that tourmaline collected all the colors of the rainbow, which is why nowadays it is called the "Rainbow Gemstone."
Tourmalines displaying just one color are quite rare since one crystal usually shows two or more shades or colors. In fact, the name "tourmaline" has been derived from the Singhalese expression "tura mali," which translates to "stone of mixed colors." Even two stones cut from the same rough mother crystal will often show different colors, a characteristic that makes tourmalines so attractive and sought-after.
Tourmaline crystals come from a mineral group that usually forms in various combinations of elements. The slightest changes in composition will result in completely different colors. Thus, it is possible that in one naturally grown crystal, there will appear completely different colors. Some will show only slightly shaded color fields, while others will display contrasting colors and defined color zoning. Tourmalines rank a hardness of 7.0-7.5 on the Mohs Scale and may be as small as a knitting needle or as thick as a thigh. They are easily available in sizes of up to 5.00ct.
Different shades of colored tourmalines have been assigned specific names. Bi-colored and multi-colored tourmalines have several names for the common combinations of colors. Crystals with red or pink cores and green borders are called watermelon-tourmalines. Stones with colorless crystals and black tips are called Maur's Head or Moor's Head, while colorless crystals with red tips are called Turk's Head. If the color zones are arranged one on top of the other, the stone is considered a rainbow tourmaline.
The red variety of tourmaline changes its name based on the coloring in different types of lighting. Deep red tourmaline named rubellite shows the same fine ruby-red shade in daylight and in artificial light. Should the color change when the source of light changes, the stone is simply called a pink tourmaline. With its exquisitely intense coloring, rubellite was once the victim of misidentification for rubies in the Russian crown jewels.
A recognizable variety of the gem is simply called, green tourmaline. It comes in a variety of green shades, including leek-green, intense yellow-green, olive-green and brownish-green. Chromium-tourmaline is the trade name for the emerald-green variety. The most rare and highly coveted green hues are the blue-green stones often called African tourmalines and the bottle-green gems referred to as Brazilian tourmalines.
Perhaps the most beautiful variety is the Paraiba tourmaline. It ranges in color from electric blue to neon blue-green to sizzling turquoise. Discovered in the Brazilian state of Paraiba, its spectacular color is due to the presence of a small amount of copper. A study by the German Foundation for Gemstone Research recently also discovered a surprisingly high content of gold in the stones. While the average gold content of the Earth's crust is 0.007 parts per million, Paraiba tourmalines contain a remarkable 8.6 parts per million. So if they were not so breathtaking, the gems might be in danger of being crushed to acquire their gold.
Paraiba tourmalines are mined near a village called Sao Jose de Batalha. In 1989, the miners discovered a new vein of gem-quality stones with extraordinarily bright shades of blue and green. Hand-excavated shafts and tunnels are up to 60 meters deep and the tourmaline is found only in pencil-thin veins. Because of the difficulty in mining, supply will always be limited and Pariaba tourmalines will always be rare and expensive. Dealers all over the world are competing for the Paraiba tourmaline, which means that it can command retail prices more than $20,000 per carat.
In the year 2000, electric yellow tourmalines were found in Malawi in East Africa. With a clear and pure color, they were deemed "canary tourmalines". Only 10 percent of all the mined yellow stones are gem-quality and when cut, more than 95 percent of the harvest will weigh less than 1.00ct. Yellow tourmalines are considered to be the only gemstones that have a fine scent. This is because their crystals are often embedded into black material that must be removed before the stones are cut. An owner of a Malawi gemstone mine discovered the black matter was easily removed when the rough crystals were boiled in water and lemon juice. Ever since then, yellow tourmalines from Malawi not only resemble fresh lemons in color, but also in their scent before they are cut.
Other tourmalines are called "indigolith" if they are blue and "dravite" if they are golden to dark brown. Black tourmalines are known as "schorls" and are mainly used for engraving. Although they were used as mourning jewelry, ancients believed black tourmalines to be stones that protected against negativity and strengthened the heart.
Tourmalines are piezoelectric, meaning they can generate electrical charges when heated, compressed or vibrated. They then become polarized crystalline magnets and can attract light objects. The Dutch, who originally brought the stone to Europe, knew about this effect and used heated tourmalines to extract ashes from their pipes. The stones were even favorite toys of Dutch children before their gem quality was established. Because the gem's electrical charges attract dust and small materials, some believe that wearing pink tourmalines will attract love and green ones will attract success.
Tourmaline has often been called the "muses' stone" because it is believed that its imaginative colors contain inspirational powers that grant enlightenment, enable creativity and express an artist's mood. Due to the stones' energetic conductivity and vast array of elements, they are thought to have powerful healing abilities and protect against many dangers. Tourmaline is supposed to be an especially powerful influence on love and friendship, fostering compassion and cool headedness. It is considered the traditional gift to give couples celebrating their 8th wedding anniversary.
Ever since the ancient days, the gem has been attributed with magical powers. Today, specific colors of tourmaline are thought to hold individualized powers. Black is believed to strengthen the immune system and bring luck and happiness when rubbed. Green tourmaline is said to encourage communication and bring success, while blue is a balancer that stimulates other tourmalines' effectiveness. Watermelon tourmaline is believed to increase perception and creativity, while balancing passivity and aggressiveness. Pink is thought to promote peace, increase spiritual understanding and bring forth love and friendship.
Kunzite is a rare and expensive semi-precious gemstone that is most famous for its delicately pale, lilac pink color. It is known for its strong pleochroism, meaning it shows lighter and more intense coloring when viewed at different angles. For this reason, the pastel gem is always cut to show the deepest pink color through the top of the gem; the deeper the pink, the more valuable the stone. Because kunzite shows its best color in larger sizes, small sizes tend to be very pale. It needs a certain amount of mass to bring out its color, so stones should weigh at least 10.00ct to be really in the pink. The largest faceted kunzite is an 880.00ct stone that is on display at the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, D.C.
Kunzite is often called the "evening stone" because it should be protected from strong sunlight. Direct sunlight and heat can fade the gem's color over time. It is an especially fragile stone due to its crystalline structure. In fact, kunzite's perfect cleavage and splintery fracture make it one of the most difficult gems to cut. It is a relatively hard gemstone, however, with a hardness rating on the Mohs Scale of 6.0-7.0.
First significantly found in Pala, California in 1902, kunzite is named as a tribute to George F. Kunz. He was the legendary gemologist and chief gem buyer for Tiffany & Co at the turn of the century, and was a pioneer of the science now known as gemology. Kunz wrote The Curious Lore of Precious Stones and searched the world for old stories and legends about gems while seeking new varieties and new deposits. Today, most kunzite is mined in Brazil, Afghanistan and Madagascar, and generally found in larger sizes of 10.00ct or more.
Modern folklore says that kunzite promotes emotional support and balance by helping to keep the mind and emotions in sync. It is believed that the gem aids in giving confidence and connection to a higher self. Many believe it reduces mood swings and stress while easing tension. It is also suggested that kunzite increases the ability to open the heart to love and trust. In fact, the gem is considered a major gemstone of love, good for improving self-love, unconditional love of others and communication in loving relationships. Also known as a communication stone, kunzite is believed to help people better understand and interact with others.
A selection of our jewelry is made of sterling palladium alloy. Palladium is a member of the platinum group of precious metals. By replacing a portion of the copper content used in standard sterling silver with palladium, this proprietary formula renders a precious metal with superior performance attributes. Sterling palladium is five times more tarnish-resistant than standard sterling silver and has strength similar to that of 14K gold.
Palladium has been used as a precious metal in jewelry since 1939, originally as an alternative to platinum for making white gold. Its naturally white color requires no rhodium plating. Additionally, palladium is proportionally much lighter than platinum and is ideal for use in heavier gemstone jewelry. It is a more expensive alloy than nickel, but it seldom causes the allergic reactions that nickel alloy can.

For many families, home for the holidays means celebrating around the dinner table, and to prevent food poisoning, health officials say take caution in the kitchen.
"We tend to make more mistakes at home because we're in our comfortable environment. We're using our things and we think that because we're doing it, then it's safe, but really we need to be careful to make sure we're doing good hand washing, cooking things long enough, make sure we're storing properly and make sure everything's nice and clean," explains Christa Campbell.
Health experts say it's crucial to properly defrost meat. And the best way to defrost a turkey is in the refrigerator allowing 24 hours-per-pound of turkey. And if you don't have that much time, officials say submerge the turkey in water, changing the water every 30 minutes per pound of turkey.
Health experts also advise when the meal is complete don't leave it out for longer than two hours and don't store large.
"As we begin to store them we want to break it down and put them in shallow pans so they can cool quicker and so that we're not putting hot products in the refrigerator and then them not actually being able to cool," Campbell adds.
Health officials say following simple guidelines for food safety could ensure your holiday feast does not turn into a holiday fiasco.
If you would like more information on safe food handling procedures you can call the USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline at 1-800-535-4555.

Recently i came across this catalog which contains some items that might be of interest.
In the main section of the catalog it has a signed Hobbit and a copy of ongs for the Philologists, but the most interesting thing is the last section containinh books from Tolkien's personal library.
Thirty-two books are listed, most signed with annotations including books given to Tolkien from E. V. Gordon and G. B. Smith.
The annotations are briefly mentioned, no pictures are produced unfortunately.
The catalog is from 2002 and is worth a look.

Running back LaDainian Tomlinson said the $45 million receiver displayed a demeanor throughout the game that didnt sit well with the rest of his offensive cohorts, and they said something to him about it.
That triggered a shouting match between Holmes and right tackle Wayne Hunter, which led to Holmes benching and subsequent criticism from teammates.
ESPNs Adam Schefter learned, via a team source, that Holmes has developed a reputation in the locker room for not working hard during the week.
The source, a player that chose to remain nameless, also proclaimed that Holmes quit on the Jets, who were officially eliminated from playoff contention, ending a disappointing season that once again began with championship expectations.

Have you ever wondered if the judicial system honestly works like everyone makes it out to? Recent events that have happened to my family have made me have second thoughts about the system that officials say is suppose to "protect" me.
These recent events have only caused problems for my family and I and have us thinking it protects the guilty more than the innocent.

New to the series? Read our spoiler-free review of A Game of Thrones.

There's a terrific blog post from Conan Stevens (cast as Gregor Clegane, the Mountain that Rides) from Belfast, in which he recounts details such as his diet, his training regimen, and his run-ins with Jason Momoa (Khal Drogo) and Rory McCann (Sandor Clegane, the Hound) at the training center, as well as bumping into executive producers David Benioff and D.B. Weiss. He mentions that he's started work on a short, brutal fight sequence he'll be taking part in, the choreography being handled by stunt coordinator Buster Reeves and his team.
Finally, after a question from us, he discusses seeing and trying on Gregor's armor for the first time, and was very impressed by the work that was done. As he notes, having professionals making armor for you is a fair sight better than making it yourself (as he did when he was part of the SCA).
On Monday, he'll be taking part in "intensive horse riding lessons" from a famous horse riding stunt team, and feels that with all this intense training and this film footage, he'll be able to apply to be an accredited stuntman in his native Australia.
The Westeros network consists of several different sites, including a forum and a wiki, for all your A Song of Ice and Fire needs.

LAKE CHARLES, La. – The Texas A&M – Corpus Christi men's and women's cross country teams had to navigate their way through mud, puddles and fog at Lake Charles, La., for the Southland Conference Championships.
The men's team splashed their way to a third-place finish with a team total of 88, while the women's team came in fifth place with 126 points.
"The race we did really, really well with was the men's race," head coach Shawn Flanagan said. "Getting third in such a strong conference is a good step forward. It was not easy, they had to battle the course conditions, but they really helped each other out. You could really see they all pushed each other in order to get the job done, and it was a great step in the right direction."
Philipp Baar paced the men's team with an extremely solid race, crossing the finish line in 25:23.4 to earn seventh place and a spot on the Second Team All-Conference. The junior jumped into the top 10 after a 14th-place finish last year.
Two seniors came in not too far back of Baar, as Jason Garcia crossed the line in 25:54.2 for 16th place, while Justin Adame ran to an 18th-place finish in a time of 26:08.5.
The freshman also ran very well, helping the Islanders to their third-place title. Edgar Martinez and Cesar Gonzalez both finished in the top 25, coming in at 22nd and 25th, respectively. Rounding out the team totals for A&M – Corpus Christi was Daniel Guerrero in 32nd place.
The other two Islanders were senior Jacob Abrego in 42nd place and junior Christoph Hintz as the 62nd finisher.
The two teams finishing ahead of A&M – Corpus Christi were Lamar with a team total of 26 after all of its five men who scored finished in the top 10 and Stephen F. Austin who had 54 points. Host McNeese State (104) and Central Arkansas (114) rounded out the top five teams on the men's side.
"The women got out good, they put themselves in contention to win the race after one mile, unfortunately we just couldn't hold the pace," Flanagan said. "Our top three girls didn't do too bad, we just needed a couple more of them to finish in the top. We're going to go back to the drawing board with them for the Regionals, but we have a good group of athletes and they try hard. We just have to get some better results and keep working at it."
Leading the way for the women's team was freshman Brandie Garcia who received Honorable Mention All-Conference honors with a 15th-place finish in a time of 22:17.6.
Running in her final conference championship for A&M – Corpus Christi was Cecilia Jones, who was the last of the top 20 runners with a time of 22:31.5. Regina Salinas was right behind Jones in 24th, crossing the line in 22:52.9.
Two ends of the spectrum rounded out the scoring for the Islanders with senior Jasmine Boutte coming in 29th while Lara Huelsebusch finished in 38th to complete the team's total of 126.
The final three runners were Vanessa Galindo, Ann-Kathrin Ott and Saira Gonzalez with times of 23:23.6, 23:36.9 and 24:08.3, respectively.
The top three teams in the women's race were Lamar (36), UCA (78) and SFA (97), while Sam Houston State placed just two points ahead of the Islanders with a total of 124.
Next up for A&M – Corpus Christi will be the South Central Regional Meet, which will take place in Waco, Texas, on Friday, Nov. 15.

AUSTIN (September 27, 2012)--As rising tuition rates continue to squeeze college students and their families statewide, University of Texas President Bill Powers said Thursday the state should do its part to ease the burden with more consistent funding for higher education.
Delivering his annual state of the university speech, Thursday Powers only briefly mentioned Gov. Rick Perry's recent idea to allow freshmen to lock in a tuition rate for four years.
Powers said Perry's idea would give families more predictability paying for college, but he stopped short of endorsing the plan.
Powers said state lawmakers could help students by providing universities with predictable budgets.
The Republican-dominated Legislature cut nearly $1 billion from higher education in 2011, with nearly $92 million taken from the University of Texas.

L.A. Archdiocese reaches agreement with more than 500 abuse claimants
By Catholic News Service
LOS ANGELES (CNS) -- The Los Angeles Archdiocese July 15 announced the largest church settlement of sexual abuse lawsuits to date, agreeing to pay more than 500 alleged victims a total of $660 million.
Before noon the next day, Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Haley Fromholz had approved the settlement, calling it "the right result." He said settling the cases was "the right thing to do."
Los Angeles Cardinal Roger M. Mahony again offered his personal apology to every victim of sexual abuse by a priest, religious, deacon or layperson in the archdiocese.
"It is the shared hope of everyone in our local church that these victims, many of whom suffered in silence for decades, may find a measure of healing and some sense of closure with today's announcement," he said in a statement July 15.
"Although financial compensation in itself is inadequate to make up for the harm done to the victims and their families, still this compensation does provide a meaningful outreach to assist the victims to rebuild their lives and to move forward," he said.
The settlement -- reached by attorneys for the archdiocese and 508 people suing the archdiocese -- came the weekend before the first of 15 civil trials in Los Angeles County courts was to begin July 16. With the agreement in hand, Cardinal Mahony and attorneys for both sides instead appeared in court to present the formal settlement to Fromholz for approval.
Following Fromholz's action, Cardinal Mahony repeated his apology and his offer to meet privately with any victim of abuse who asks. "This particular day is a day for the victims to speak," he said, adding that he would spend the rest of the day in prayer.
Jesuit Father Federico Lombardi, Vatican spokesman, said July 17 that the settlement "understandably has garnered great attention both because of the number of cases involved as well as for the figure of the settlement."
"But, as Cardinal Mahony -- in line with what John Paul II and Benedict XVI said many times -- the church obviously is pained mainly by the suffering of the victims and their families because of the profound wounds caused by the serious and inexcusable behavior of some of its members," Father Lombardi said.
He said the settlement agreement, "with the sacrifices it requires," is also a sign of the seriousness with which the church "has committed itself to doing everything possible to avoid a repetition of such wicked acts."
During the hearing, Ray Boucher, lead attorney for the victims, thanked his clients for their resolve and courage, asking them to stand. "I think they deserve a tremendous debt of gratitude," Boucher said, fighting back tears.
He credited Cardinal Mahony with taking steps that led to the settlement, which might not have occurred "if left to the lawyers."
Michael Hennigan, attorney for the archdiocese, said in the courtroom that his views of clergy sex abuse had changed over the years he spent on the cases, largely through his private meetings with 70 plaintiffs.
"I'd like to say that the church would have been reformed without these cases, but I don't know that's true," he said. "These cases have forever reformed the Archdiocese of Los Angeles. It will never be the same."
Margaret Graf, general counsel for the archdiocese, thanked county courts personnel for their role in helping to bring about a settlement through mediation.
"This was the courts at their best," said Graf. "We appreciate the enormous efforts of our Superior Courts in Los Angeles to deal with this very complex and sensitive litigation and the fact that they made the resources of the courts available."
She thanked in particular Judges Charles McCoy, Peter Lichtman and Fromholz, as well as the hundreds of attorneys and other legal professionals who represented the defendants and the victims.
In addition to the monetary settlement, the Los Angeles Archdiocese tried to facilitate a pastoral response toward the victims of clergy sexual abuse when possible.
For more than a year, Cardinal Mahony has been meeting with victims and their families individually, and hopes to continue meeting with victims, said Graf. The cardinal has met with more than 70 victims. McCoy, a Los Angeles Superior Court judge participated in most of the meetings -- sometimes lasting as along as three hours.
"Judge McCoy facilitated it so that there could be pastoral outreach and victims could tell the cardinal their story in a noncourt environment," she said.
The archdiocese also has been paying for therapy and counseling for victims, regardless of whether they are involved in litigation, said Graf.
Last December, the archdiocese announced the settlement of 45 lawsuits for $60 million.
Under the latest agreement, the archdiocese will pay $250 million and the balance will come from a combination of payments from insurance carriers and religious orders whose members have been accused in the abuse cases.
According to a tally prepared by the Los Angeles Times, the previous largest settlement of abuse cases in the United States since 2002 was the $157 million the Boston Archdiocese agreed to pay to 983 claimants in several different settlement agreements. The Archdiocese of Portland, Ore., agreed to pay $129 million to 315 claimants; the Diocese of Orange, Calif., agreed to pay $100 million to 90 claimants, and the Diocese of Covington, Ky., settled with 350 claimants for $85 million.
Cardinal Mahony said the new settlement and the one for $60 million announced in November "will have very serious and painful consequences for the archdiocese." He said the archdiocese will re-evaluate all ministries and services, "since we will not be able to offer them at the same levels as in the past."
The archdiocese will sell "nonessential properties" to fund its portion of the settlement, he said, adding that no parish properties or schools would be affected.
In May Cardinal Mahony said the archdiocese would sell its chancery building to help finance the settlements. Archdiocesan functions would either move to rented space elsewhere or the archdiocese would lease back space in its current building, he said.
About 50 properties had been identified as available to sell to cover the settlement costs.
Teresa Kettelkamp, executive director of the U.S. bishops' Office of Child and Youth Protection, told Catholic News Service that the Los Angeles settlement is a watershed for the number of victims it includes. She said she hopes the settlement is the key to enabling the victims to achieve greater healing.
Reaching a court settlement for damages "is just one of the tools of healing," she said. "Hopefully time will tell whether it makes a difference."

NSF Polar Program
U.S. Antarctic Program
The National Zoo's Antarctica Expedition is sponsored by the National Science Foundation's Office of Polar Programs.
All photographs depicting Weddell seals were taken under NMFS Permit No. 763-1485-00 issued under the authority of the Marine Mammal Protection Act.
October 5, 2006
Antarctica is truly the end of the world, the pole, the extremity of all that is known to us. Here is the most blinding light, the darkest night, the purest of skies in the entire world, and it transforms those who come here. Like a torch, Antarctica accentuates both the high points and dark places of our nature. Emotions are more intense, creativity flows more freely, and people seem more fully awake and alive than elsewhere. Why would this be so? My theory is that the taste of death in the bitter wind reminds us of the time before we became domesticated. A wake-up call, if you like.
Antarctica brings out facets of our species' programming that are buried beneath layers of civilization in everyday life. For example, in the extreme cold, our bodies burn calories at a tremendous rate and appetite increases accordingly. Like most folks, I am neither a performance athlete nor a mountain guide, so I am not used to sudden cravings for enormous quantities of high-calorie food. In the field, I have seen perfectly civilized, reasonable people get upset because they thought someone else got a little more food on his plate from the cook. Just a hint of starvation is enough to crack the veneer of social conditioning and have us snarling over food, unaware of the manipulation of our higher selves by the humble machinery of our bodies. The only fix is to acknowledge that one is being manipulated, and make a conscious choice of manners over instinct.
Another interesting example is the force of social cohesion and group identity in a small community such as McMurdo Station. During Winfly (the first flights in after the winter hiatus) in late August, five planes broke the long isolation of a community that had seen the last plane disappear five months earlier. After the last flight of Winfly, when I arrived at the station, there is again no physical contact with the outside world until Mainbody flights (the arrival of the "summer people") start in the first week of October. The weather held for the eagerly anticipated first flight, and people stood on slopes and even rooftops above the sea ice to watch the plane land and to wave. A good friend of mine, a winterover, cried when she saw the plane—it was the end of her winter and the beginning of the reign of summer, and it was time for her to leave Antarctica. "Mainbody" means goodbye to the longest night, the Southern Cross and the Aurora Australis, and welcome to the arrival of people, seals, and the long glorious unending day of summer.
For reasons that escape me, it was officially decreed that no one was to welcome the passengers until they had sat through their arrival briefing (which is really, really dull and takes ages). But humans will not be denied access to their own kind, and many people found a way to hug their friends prior to getting official permission to do so. What looked like most of the station stood waiting for an hour outside the dining hall where the briefing was held to welcome the new arrivals.
The next morning, the Galley is crowded and we have to wait in line for trays and food. Xenophobia hits, and winterovers and Winflies are suddenly united in their loathing of the invaders. We huddle in the Galley, whispering that the place has been become overcrowded, and wishing we were back at Winfly. Almost by definition, new arrivals are too noisy, too many, and take up too much space. Nothing is like it was before, and it is hard to resist the urge to wish that all should stay the way it had been.
As natural as it is for humans to resent invaders, this never applies to one's own. My people are scheduled on the first flight, and I am waiting eagerly (and somewhat chilled) on the outside steps of the Galley building, where antediluvian omnibuses release their loads of large red bundles clutching bright orange duffle bags. Our team consists of nine people, eight on the first flight, and so I go from being the lone seal scientist on station to having a tribe of my own. I am very glad to see them. Thus ends my Winfly, and the adventure of science is about to start.

Enterprise Tech Tip: DataSource Resource Definition in Java EE 6
By edort on Dec 11, 2009
Java EE 6 has a wide variety of new features that makes enterprise and web application development a lot easier. I covered many of these features in the article Introducing the Java EE 6 Platform. However, one of the areas of improvement in Java EE 6 that I didn't cover in that article is datasource resource definition.
If you've accessed relational databases through the JDBC API, you know all about
DataSource objects. For those of you who aren't familiar with
DataSource objects, they're Java objects that identify and describe real-world data sources such as relational databases. To access a datasource, you need to define a
DataSource object and register it with the Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) naming service. An application can then use the JNDI API to access that
DataSource object, which can then be used to connect to the datasource it represents.
Prior to Java EE 6, you could create a
DataSource object only through vendor-specific mechanisms, such as commands. However, Java EE 6 makes datasource definition more flexible. It introduces a new datasource definition resource that you can declare portably for database connectivity across any Java EE 6-compatible application server. You can declare datasource definitions either through annotations or through the use of deployment descriptors.
Jagadish Ramu, an engineer in the GlassFish Application Server team, has written a very nice Tech Tip that describes this new capability in more detail and shows code examples that demonstrate datasource definition using annotations and deployment descriptors. The tip also includes a sample application that demonstrates the use of these features. See the tip DataSource Resource Definition in Java EE 6.

USA, 2013, 60 Minute Running Time
Genre/Subjects: Animated, Crime, DocumentaryLanguage: English
Imagine serving 25 years in prison for a murder you didn't commit. Although through new technologies, such as DNA testing, some wrongly convicted inmates are now being exonerated, for Eddie Baker, Joyce Anne Brown, and Jimmy Landano, those years served can never be regained. How as a civilized society are we being held accountable? Sadly for many, "the only justice in America is what you can buy."
It is not a sinister master plan of the law enforcement and judicial systems to put innocent civilians behind bars, but it is an epidemic of taking the easy way out. Following up on evidence takes time and taxpayer dollars. Admitting you nabbed the wrong guy wouldn't save face in the already painfully critical media's eyes. And paying for expensive private-practice lawyers and "expert" testimony accompanying DNA results is not an option for those already below the poverty line. The excuses go on and on, and for USC professor and director Shelia M. Sofian, reform is imperative for our country's future.
Sofian's impressionistic animation captures the surreal accounts of the interviewed prisoners as they provide a voice for other wrongfully accused Americans, who in the past have just been an ignorable statistic. Fortunately, there is growing awareness of this problem, thanks to activists such as James McCloskey of Centurion Ministries. Legal experts Barry Scheck and Vincent Bugliosi also are interviewed in this unique documentary.

A part-time county prosecutor in northeastern North Dakota who has been criticized for his handling of criminal cases including one high-profile case has resigned.
Nelson County State's Attorney Doug Manbeck declined to discuss his reasons with the Grand Forks Herald (http://bit.ly/11pr533 ).
Sheriff Kelly Janke (JANG'-kee) late last year called for Manbeck's ouster, saying Manbeck did not work well with law enforcement. Janke also has criticized a proposed plea agreement with Rodney Brossart, a rural Lakota farmer involved in a summer-long standoff with law enforcement in 2011. County Commission Chairman Odell Flaagan also has criticized Manbeck.
Manbeck has not spoken publicly about the criticism. He says he plans to focus on his private law practice and tax preparation business in Lakota. He also serves as city attorney for Lakota and Michigan.

Scott's Economic Failure: Focus On Education
Published: Thursday, September 5, 2013 at 12:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, September 4, 2013 at 11:52 p.m.
If Gov. Rick Scott truly wants to bring quality jobs to Florida, he should lay off the conservative rhetoric and get to work improving an education system that helps attract high-paying employers.
He should also recognize that handing another tax break to giant corporations does little to improve the lives of average Floridians.
Citing signs of an improving economy, Scott told conservative activists Friday that he will ask legislators to cut $500 million in taxes and fees next year.
Last week, Scott also failed to show up at an education summit he organized to help fix the state's flawed student testing and school grading systems. Instead, Scott met privately with former Gov. Jeb Bush.
Scott is likely trying to shore up conservative support as his 2014 re-election campaign kicks into gear. While his actions provide red meat to Republican primary voters, they fail to help Floridians of all political stripes put food on the table.
Florida's economy has been losing ground in recent years in a variety of ways, according to a report released Monday by Florida International University researchers.
Poverty increased by 47 percent between 2007 and 2011, according to the report. Nearly one-quarter of Floridians live at or near poverty levels.
The state's real household income fell 11.5 percent, or by nearly $5,700, between 2000 and 2011. The top 10 percent of earners saw their incomes grow by about 13 percent during that period, while the bottom 10 percent saw their wages drop by half a percentage point.
And in a distinction that should give Scott pause as he tries to emulate the business atmosphere of the Lone Star State, Florida has more minimum-wage workers — 5 percent — than any state but Texas.
The report suggests short-term steps such as increasing Florida's minimum wage from $7.79 an hour. In the long term, researchers recommend that the state move away from low-wage industries such as retail and tourism toward higher-paying fields.
If Scott wants to attract those kinds of businesses, he'll need to provide them with an educated workforce. A good start would be investing part of the state's expected budget surplus in both K-12 and higher education, which still haven't recovered from years of cuts.
Scott should show that he's a leader who understands that prosperity is about more than tax cuts for big businesses. Putting unemployed Floridians back to work in low-wage jobs is hardly the kind of accomplishment that would give voters reason to hire Scott to lead the state again.

I played this course on Saturday morning after I read some of the reviews on this site. It was not as difficult as some of the reviews made it out to be. The wind was what made this course a pain.
Holes 3 and 4 where not hard to figure out. A little tip to leave your bag between 3 and 4 teepads and take your mid range and putter with you after you tee off 3.
Another reviewer said 16 and 17 where difficult to find. I found this to be bs. All you had to was look for about 15 seconds. The signs where a good indicator as well.
I like how well the course was maintained. Berms and rocks made the layout of this course great. It was nice to have things other than trees to have to play around. The trees where small and few, but it will be geat to see the course in 15 to 20 years once the trees are bigger.

"The card was easy to edit to add my own words, it's great that you can change font and size of text. Overall a fantastic looking invite at a great price. Super quick delivery too."
"We ordered this card for our son's baptism and, even though we already expected them to be nice, were pleasantly surprised when were even more beautiful than anticipated. We will definitely continue using Tiny Prints in the near future because: - our invitations were delivered earlier than the estimated delivery time - our specifications were met - we got what we asked for - the cards and printed envelopes exceeded our expectations - the quality of the paper and printing was exquisite"
"I ordered these at the last minute for my son's christening. I paid a little extra for shipping, but they came right on time. I opted for straight edges and they were perfect! I am very impressed with the quality and look/feel of the invites. They far exceeded my expectations and I am definitely ordering from Tiny Prints again!"
"I ordered these invitations for my twin sons' baptism. I was very happy with the quality of the paper, the design, the font used. I did not make any changes to the sample online, only personalized it with our information. Everyone who received the invitation commented how pretty it is. Not very many twin baptism invitations out there and especially invitations without pictures so I was very pleased to have found and ordered these. Great quality for the price."
"The invites were exactly what I was looking good for. Delicate with a sentimental value to it. Perfect for my son's christening. All my guest really love the touch and the mood it set when they received it."
