Okay, okay we didn't really Moon Philly or anything… but I do have to make a confession here…
We had the most fun and beautiful little mini-honeymoon on our weekend trip down to Philly.
It helped that the weather was pretty much perfect too. As they say… "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" haha.
We arrived in the city and went straight downtown to our hotel for the night.
The Embassy Suites.
Where all the magic happened… haha
The View
We'll be visiting there later in the trip…
The excited to be in Philly and I am a dork, mirror picture…
Brian's dressed and ready for our first day/night on the town.
As am I!! Let's go!
Sadly, this first day/night I left my camera behind. I wanted to take it all in.🙂
We walked all around the city making a few pit stops here and there. We ate yummy food and saw amazing things.
Walking down South Street we came upon this place, which like it's name is truly magical!!
Beautiful Murals and Mosaics everywhere in the city, SO FUN.
Then a short walk from there found us passing by this shop where we saw people weaving on looms inside. We were slowly peering in when one of the fellow's waved us to come in and check it out. So we did. We found out that it was called Arts Street Textile Studio and what they are all about can be read about here in this article: Arts Street Textile Studio. It is an awesome idea for helping the homeless learn a new skill and sell their art. The man that invited us in was named Rob and he was one of the artists. I bought a lovely scarf from Rob after talking with him about his work. MADE MY DAY.🙂
We also found this great hat store, where Brian and I both had so much fun trying on hats of all kinds and made some lovely purchases🙂
On Saturday….
We took a short walk down to Love Park which was right near where we were staying…
Cool statue outside our hotel.
This is the area we were in
Then we drove out of town… through "West Philadelphia…. Born and Raised… On the playground is where I spent most of my days…" Anyone?
Anyways, we were headed to the town that Brian grew up in outside of Philly… These were some photos I took along the drive through some of the rougher areas, I was glad that I got to see all parts of the city. Of course we didn't go to the extreme rough spots.
Before we got to Brian's hometown, we made a detour for lunch to get my second Philly Cheesesteak of the trip so far, which was delicious! Brian says the one essential to a great Philly Cheesesteak is the Amoroso Rolls which are delivered fresh every day to places through out the city. I took this picture of the proof of delivery to this lunch stop.
So after taking a little tour of where Brian grew up we headed to our second "hotel" called Normandy Farms in order to get ready for our Hall of Fame Ceremony at Brian's High School.
This place was amazing!
We stayed in the West Gate House and we basically stayed in the whole half of the first floor. It was pretty great.
TV/Sitting Room
Pretty light
I think I died and went to bathroom heaven.
So then we got all dressed up and met up with Brian's friend Josh and his fiance Kristen and grabbed some dinner before the boys were reunited with the rest of their awesome High School Swim Team, one of the best in the country at the time they were there! It was so fun and great to meet some of Brian's old friends. His school was so huge, bigger than like 3 of mine put together.
Josh and Brian
After spending an amazing night at Normandy Farms we decided that we would stay there on Sunday night too. And take all day Sunday to go back into the city and do more touristy exploring.🙂 So that is just what we did.
First thing on the list when we got back into the city was to take a horse carriage ride tour through the historical area. This was beautiful and amazing. So much history here in Philly.
This was our horse, BILL
It was a beautiful morning for a carriage ride.
The Signer Statue.
It costs a pretty penny to live in this area now.
One of the oldest and longest continuously lived on streets in America…
Philadelphia the city of brotherly love…
After our tour through the historical district. Brian and I headed over to check out the Art Museum and the "Rocky" staircase. But before we did he wanted to show me this nice running path that goes along the river and we noticed there was a rowing race going on and stopped for a bit to check it out. The geese were busy checking us out.
Then we got to the Museum, It was huge! We didn't have time to go in and look around. But I suppose you have to save some things for another trip.
Yo Adrian….
Then after the museum fun we headed over to the Reading Terminal Market!! This place was great! Like Faneuil Hall in Boston, only BETTER! Although because it was a Sunday we missed out on some of the shops because all the Amish People that bring there goods, do not come to the market on Sundays. So that was a bit of a bummer.
Pig's Feet Anyone?
Or how about some Ox Tail?
After getting some yummy Falafel's at some Middle Eastern Restaurant in there for lunch we went over and purchased a few AMAZING cheeses from the cheese shop to take back to Normandy Farms with us and enjoy later before dinner.
After we got back and took a lovely swim and relaxed in the hot tub we enjoyed our new cheeses.
We got, a lovely canadian chedder, a little french soft cheese, and our favorite of the trip, Shropshire Blue Cheese which was so delicious.
Then we got dressed up one last time and had a nice fancy dinner at Coleman's Restaurant right there at Normandy Farms where we were staying. It was a great way to end our little amazing Mini-Moon.🙂
Thank you honey for showing me such a lovely time in Philadelphia. I love you.

Here at Palantir, Charles Cooper's recent piece on CNET about J. C. R. Licklider has struck us as a very timely piece of journalism.
Licklider was an very influential man, with Cooper even crediting him for the existence of Computer Science as a modern-day field:
Until Licklider began his work at ARPA, there were no Ph.D. programs in computer science at American universities. That changed after ARPA began handing out grants to promising students, a practice that convinced MIT, Stanford, UC Berkeley and Carnegie Mellon to start their own graduate programs in computer science in 1965. Maybe that should go down as Licklider's most lasting legacy.
In the piece, Cooper references this influential and well known work by Licklider: Man-Computer Symbiosis, by J. C. R. Licklider, published in IRE Transactions on Human Factors in Electronics, volume HFE-1, pages 4-11, March 1960.
That's right, it was written almost 50 years ago. That said, it's incredibly relevant today, perhaps more than ever.
Here's the abstract:
Man-computer symbiosis is an expected development in cooperative interaction between men and electronic computers. It will involve very close coupling between the human and the electronic members of the partnership. The main aims are 1) to let computers facilitate formulative thinking as they now facilitate the solution of formulated problems, and 2) to enable men and computers to cooperate in making decisions and controlling complex situations without inflexible dependence on predetermined programs. In the anticipated symbiotic partnership, men will set the goals, formulate the hypotheses, determine the criteria, and perform the evaluations. Computing machines will do the routinizable work that must be done to prepare the way for insights and decisions in technical and scientific thinking. Preliminary analyses indicate that the symbiotic partnership will perform intellectual operations much more effectively than man alone can perform them. Prerequisites for the achievement of the effective, cooperative association include developments in computer time sharing, in memory components, in memory organization, in programming languages, and in input and output equipment.
This description is still a pretty accurate description of how most analysts (in any industry or field) go about their business:
Despite the fact that there is a voluminous literature on thinking and problem solving, including intensive case-history studies of the process of invention, I could find nothing comparable to a time-and-motion-study analysis of the mental work of a person engaged in a scientific or technical enterprise. In the spring and summer of 1957, therefore, I tried to keep track of what one moderately technical person actually did during the hours he regarded as devoted to work. Although I was aware of the inadequacy of the sampling, I served as my own subject.
About 85 per cent of my "thinking" time was spent getting into a position to think, to make a decision, to learn something I needed to know. Much more time went into finding or obtaining information than into digesting it. Hours went into the plotting of graphs, and other hours into instructing an assistant how to plot. When the graphs were finished, the relations were obvious at once, but the plotting had to be done in order to make them so.
Throughout the period I examined, in short, my "thinking" time was devoted mainly to activities that were essentially clerical or mechanical: searching, calculating, plotting, transforming, determining the logical or dynamic consequences of a set of assumptions or hypotheses, preparing the way for a decision or an insight. Moreover, my choices of what to attempt and what not to attempt were determined to an embarrassingly great extent by considerations of clerical feasibility, not intellectual capability.
This quote is an eerily accurate description of how trading strategies are formulated, back-tested, and implemented these days. As analogy, it's also an accurate reflection of the modern use of information processing in the intelligence space.
To wit:
It is to bring computing machines effectively into processes of thinking that must go on in "real time," time that moves too fast to permit using computers in conventional ways. Imagine trying, for example, to direct a battle with the aid of a computer on such a schedule as this. You formulate your problem today. Tomorrow you spend with a programmer. Next week the computer devotes 5 minutes to assembling your program and 47 seconds to calculating the answer to your problem. You get a sheet of paper 20 feet long, full of numbers that, instead of providing a final solution, only suggest a tactic that should be explored by simulation. Obviously, the battle would be over before the second step in its planning was begun. To think in interaction with a computer in the same way that you think with a colleague whose competence supplements your own will require much tighter coupling between man and machine than is suggested by the example and than is possible today.
So what how does this relate to what we do? In the finance world, much of what fund managers and analysts do in building strategies has to do with formulating trading models and then building spreadsheets that can back test or simulate the performance of those models.
Our finance tool obviates the need for this "clerical, mechanical" work, allowing strategists to spend more time making sense of the interconnections in the market and formulating nuanced trading strategies and less time doing model-building in Excel. We take the state-of-art a quantum leap forward in terms of financial analysis: rather than even just allowing analysts to quickly build models and back test trading strategies, we've built a tool that allows for a smooth flow from hypothesis to theory with the software doing all the heavy lifting, data wrangling, eye-candy-class presentation. New variables or market conditions can be incorporated on the fly without the need for a pause from high-level thinking to gather data or marshal it into the right format. Knowledge can be divined by asking questions relative to high-level concepts of things like dynamic market conditions and meta-conditions like the volatility-of-volatility.
The question has traditionally been, "How do I effectively model this financial space?" With Palantir, we're transforming that question into the core question asked in the finance industry, namely, "How can I better understand the interactions at work in today's markets?" So the focus moves to the human-level questions while the software takes care of the data level machinations.
In the intelligence space, the composite views of data that the government team creates save the analysts from having to painstakingly research and record correlations across multiple informational domains. Instead, the analyst can spend time divining the meaning behind the connections and correlations. Our take on perpetual analytics takes things a step further, alerting the analyst as relevant new information enters the system. And finally, we're building workflows that allow analysts to quickly attach 'handles' to data to allow what has been traditionally unstructured data get seat at this table of computer-enhanced human analysis.
We're speeding up the process of analysis by creating an analyst-computer symbiosis. No longer will people need to spend time doing menial data processing, the computers will do it for them, while the humans provide the spark of insight, semantics, and cognition that computers lack.
It's conceptual analysis at the speed of thought.
This is why I'm excited to come to work every day: we're building the software that embodies a broad vision of the future. This vision of human computer symbiosis dates from five decades ago but is also apparent in every interaction we see with computers on the big and small screens (no, not our monitors). From Star Trek to 24, people want to the computers to do the repetitive and time-consuming simple work but let them have final say on any complex decisions. As one of our customers told us when shown our application: this is the future.

"He wasn't an observer -- he was an active thinker," said Jim Matthews, a family friend who will be one of the ministers at Ferrell's funeral service. "Whether it was business or community, spiritually or nationally, Frank always had an idea."
John Franklin "Frank" Ferrell died Sunday. He was 87.
"He was always a hard-worker for his community," said friend Dennis Ziegenhorn. "He was definitely a community leader, and he thought a lot of Sikeston."
Ferrell belonged to the Sikeston Lions Club, the Sikeston Jaycees, the American Legion Post 114, Sikeston Masonic Lodge 310 and the Sikeston Elks Lodge. He was a Shriner, a member of the SEMO Shrine Mounted Patrol and the Moolah Shrine Temple in St. Louis. A former volunteer fireman for the Sikeston Volunteer Fire Department, Ferrell was a member and former president of the Sikeston Chamber of Commerce.
He was a former city councilman and mayor of Sikeston in the 1970s. Ferrell operated a Missouri license fee office from 1953 through 1973. He served as chairman of the Sikeston Industrial Development Corporation, as a deputy sheriff in Scott County, and was the first director of civil defense for Scott County. He was owner and operator of Ferrell Excavating Company and Ferrell Oil Company.
And this list is not comprehensive. "He did a lot of things behind the scenes," said the Rev. Rick Ramsey, pastor of First Baptist Church, where Ferrell worshiped.
In recognition of his efforts, Ferrell was named "Man of the Year" in 1985; he also received the Sikeston Chamber of Commerce's Lifetime Achievement Award.
Ferrell was politically active as well. Former State Rep. Betty Hearnes of Charleston, wife of former Gov. Warren Hearnes, called Ferrell "a good Democrat." He was active in her husband's campaigns, helping with dinners, passing out materials and other tasks, she said.
"The first thing you think about when you think of Frank Ferrell is that he was interested in improving Sikeston, building it and bringing industry in," she said.
At Monday night's city council meeting, Mayor Mike Marshall noted Ferrell's death. "He did a lot of things for this town," Marshall said. "He will be greatly missed."
Marshall described Ferrell as "chairman of the board of the Greatest Generation."
Ferrell was quite committed to First Baptist Church. "He was very humble and yet very involved at the same time," Ramsey said. "He would lead, he would serve, he would do whatever was necessary to help."
In all projects Ferrell participated in, he was involved and helpful in terms of providing advice, finances and equipment, Ramsey said.
Matthews agreed. "He was always willing to contribute with his time and money - that was Frank," he said.
Ferrell also had a great amount of energy. "He was always enthusiastic about moving on to some other project," said Jim Robison, a lawyer and family friend of Ferrell's. "Somehow he always seemed to be about 20 years younger than his actual age."
He helped organized the Sheriff's Posse when it formed over 30 years ago, and actually taught the riders most of the drills, based on experience with the Shriner's Palomino horse drills, Robison said.
Robison related Ferrell's term as mayor with the development of the Sikeston Sports Complex. "He probably had more to do with putting that together than anyone in town," he said. "It was one of his pet projects."
Blair Moran of the Sikeston Veterans Park Committee, of which Ferrell was historian, told of Ferrell's work in the group. "He was a great asset to our committee and without his hard work and dedication, that park would have never have become a reality," Moran said. "Frank donated material and labor to help us with the tank, the jet and the helicopter."
Ferrell's death is a huge loss for Sikeston. "Anytime you lose a citizen like Frank Ferrell who was interested in everything and there when you needed someone to be energetic and work at any project that would improve the area, it is a tremendous loss to that area," Hearnes said.
"He was famous for big hugs -- a lot of people are going to miss his hugs," Ramsey said. He will remember Ferrell for "his smile, his wit, his firm handshake and genuine concern."
Ferrell's visitation will be from 5 to 8 o'clock tonight at the First Baptist Church, 1101 N. Main in Sikeston. Services are scheduled there at 1:30 p.m. Wednesday, with burial in Memorial Park Cemetery.

|Texas AFL-CIO
Austin Is Pilot City in New AFL-CIO Communications Program
For Immediate Release
Contact: Ed Sills, 512-477-6195
AFL-CIO Launches Campaign, TV Ads in Austin
Austin, Texas – "Work Connects Us All" is the message of a new campaign from the AFL-CIO launched today in Austin. The campaign includes television advertising in English and Spanish to reach out to Americans based on shared values around work. The campaign is also launching today in Pittsburgh and will expand to other cities soon.
"This effort is not about politics, but about bringing people together for a real conversation about the dignity and impact of work and how securing respect for all work is fundamental to who we are," said Texas AFL-CIO President Becky Moeller. "Work connects us all—and who better to get people talking, not only about their work but how we rely on each other's work to make America strong."
The ads highlight working people in virtually every industry. "Work doesn't separate; it's what binds us together," the ad's narrator says. "I teach your kid, you fix my car, he builds my city, she keeps it safe. Work is what connects us. All of us."
The campaign comes on the heels of an expanding national awareness of the divide between the 99% and the economic elite as well as the decline of the American middle class. Efforts in some states to take away rights of working people to come together in unions have given rise to a growing recognition of the bonds shared by working people.
"Work is something that binds together every person… and together working people are building a new America," said AFL-CIO Secretary-Treasurer Liz Shuler. "In this time of historic income inequality, this campaign showcases the values that America's unions share with all working people: hard work, quality work, and how every one of us is connected."
The effort, which is the first national campaign by the AFL-CIO in over a dozen years, also includes social media, an online component with a dynamic interactive website (www.WorkConnectsUsAll.org), and outreach in communities nationwide to spark innovative initiatives and new community partnerships.

Title: Work Connects Us All
"I know what work is.
Work is what shakes us awake every morning.
And knocks us out every night.
Work is what we do, to better ourselves, to support our families.
Our towns, our cities, our country.
It's the initials we scratch in the wet cement of America's progress.
Work is what built this country, and what will build it again.
And as work changes, we change with it.
Work doesn't separate; it's what binds us together.
I teach your kid, you fix my car, he builds my city, she keeps it safe.
Work is what connects us.
All of us."

I don't think there is.
This is why, when trying to get a Windows machine to print on a mixed
network running Linux (variant Unix - TCP/IP for nearly everything)

The Service Employees International Union, among other organizations, is trying to keep pressure on ICE to pull back on tough immigration enforcement efforts.
Hundreds of cleaners and security guards in the union are conducting prayer vigils outside local Immigration Customs Enforcement offices today to demand that ICE "get its house in order."
Immigrant advocates have been in an uproar in recent weeks over ICE memos talking about quotas for detaining illegal immigrants and a critical federal audit on a popular ICE enforcement program in local jails.
From a SEIU statement issued today:
Rather than wasting limited funds to chase hard-working, tax-paying cleaners, home-care providers and nannies, the activists are calling on President Obama and Secretary Janet Napolitano to re-focus ICE enforcement on its original goals of targeting crooked employers and criminals.
"In recent months, ICE field officers have been acting like cowboys, more interested in adding scalps to their belts than doing their jobs targeting criminals and abusive employers," said SEIU Executive Vice President Eliseo Medina. "As a result, we waste over $17.1 billion dollars a year on a failed enforcement strategy that only serves to benefit the most abusive, off the books, employers, push workers deeper into the underground economy and devastate local communities."

Many consider the search for knowledge a lifelong quest. Using the new Domain Search capabilities in Notes and Domino R5, you can shorten that journey substantially. Now you can get the information you need when you need it, so your search for knowledge really isn't much of a search at all. The new Domain Search capabilities allow you to search every server in your domain for any information located in virtually any document, whether it's in a Domino database or a public file system. You can search the information from a Web browser or the Notes client. Domain Search combines the ease of searching on the Web with the power and security of Notes.
Domain Search in R5 is a key element in the Lotus knowledge management strategy. In addition to Domain Search, knowledge management tools in R5 include the Content Catalog, Headlines, and TeamRoom. For an overview of Domain Search and how it fits into the bigger picture of knowledge management, see "Knowledge Management in R5."
As an administrator, you might think "Great! I'm glad to have these new capabilities, but I'll bet it's hard to set up and administer." The good news is that Domain Search is simple to set up and once you get it going, you can centrally control what users can search.
Now you probably want details. We'll start by giving you an overview of Domain Search and talk about its advantages. Then we'll give you a brief run-through of how Domain Search works in the Notes client, and get into the details of how you can set up Domain Search for your organization.
First, be assured that any applications you designed in R4.6 with custom searches will work when you upgrade to R5. R5 search is backwards compatible, meaning that whatever you could do in R4.x, you can do in R5.
Getting the big picture
Before we get going, we'll define some terminology. The Domino server that brings you all of the Domain Search capabilities is called the Domain Catalog server, because the Domain Catalog plays a fundamental role in Domain Search. The Domain Catalog server holds the Domain Catalog and the Domain Index. The Domain Catalog collects an abundance of information about every database on every server in your domain, including information on whether or not it should include the database in the Domain Index. The Domain Index is a central index of all the text in all the databases and all the file systems you choose to allow users to search. When users conduct a Domain Search, they search the Domain Index stored on this server. The following illustration shows a Domain Catalog server with a Domain Catalog and a Domain Index:
Figure 1. R5 Domain Catalog Server diagram
If you are wondering how Domain Search works in a mixed environment (with both R5 and R4.x servers), you will be glad to hear that you can have both R5 and R4.x servers in your environment. Users will need the Notes R5 client or a Web browser to execute a Domain Search.
Domain Search is different from Domino Extended Search, which works with Notes and Domino Release 4.5.x , 4.6.x and 5.0, and allows you to search across multiple Notes domains. Extended Search is a separate product that you can purchase in addition to Notes. Domino Extended Search is a search broker application that accepts user queries, translates them, and brokers them out, in native language, to various repositories, which can include Domino databases, relational databases, or ERP systems that already have their own full text indices. These various repositories then perform their own searches and return their results to the Extended Search broker, which aggregates the results and presents them to the user through a dedicated Notes application.
The benefits of Domain Search
The benefits of Domain Search are:
- It's easier to search - you don't need to know where the data you're looking for is located to be able to execute a search. You can search everything from one place.
- It's secure - it uses the ACL of the database to ensure that users receive only the results that they're allowed to see. In addition, if a document has a Reader field, the user must be listed in that field in order to gain access to the search result.
- It's centrally administered - you control what gets indexed.
- It's browser accessible - you can use a Web browser to execute the same searches, using the same user interface as you would in the Notes client.
Ease of use
Domain Search overcomes the database-specific searching limitations of R4.x and allows you to search any and all databases in your domain. You don't need to know what database contains the information you are looking for. You can click the arrow that appears next to the magnifying glass at the top-right corner of your screen and search everything in your domain.
One of the biggest advantages of using Domain Search to search Domino databases is that it is completely secure. This is because in addition to using a central index, Domain Search collects the information contained in the ACL of each individual database. When you submit a query to the R5 Domain Catalog server, it finds all the index hits. However, before it displays the links to you, it figures out whether you have access to the document and only returns the links for documents you have access to. It does this by looking at the ACL information in the Domain Catalog. In addition, R5 also supports Reader fields. Reader fields list groups and individual users allowed to see a particular document. These fields further refine the ACL for a specific document. If you are in the ACL as Reader, but not in the Reader field of a document, you can't access that document through a search.
Central administration
Using the new Domino Administrator, you can centrally control and administer the databases you want indexed and therefore, determine what users can search. Since you can control what databases get indexed, you also control the size of the Domain Index. There may be applications that you don't want to include in the Domain Index because you don't want users to search for that information. For example, you may not want to include salary, review, benefits or other sensitive information for your organization. Or you may have information that is only used by a small or specific audience that you want to index in individual databases, but not include in the Domain Index.
Browser accessibility
A developer can place this link on any Web page to allow browser users to search the domain.
How do you use Domain Search?
Domain Search allows you to set up a single, central index for all the content in your domain. Then, Notes R5 users or browser users can securely search all the databases in that domain. As an administrator, you need to have a basic understanding of how end users execute a Domain Search.
Before users can search, the Notes clients in your organization must know where the Domain Catalog server is. When Notes R5 users use the Notes client for the first time, the client uses the default setup profile on the server to populate the Catalog/domain Search server field in their Location document with the name of their designated Domain Catalog server. When you register new users, you can use a setup profile to automatically enter their search server. When users execute a search, Notes goes to the designated Domain Catalog server, looks in the specified Domain Catalog and retrieves a search form, which is stored in the Domain Catalog.
The following steps show you how to use Domain Search:
- Click the arrow that appears next
to the magnifying glass at the top-right corner of your screen, as
Figure 2. The Domain Search option in the Notes client
- Choose Domain Search.
- Enter your search query in the
Domain Search form:
Figure 3. The Domain Search form
You can choose to search for documents or databases. You can search for any word, phrase, or number by entering it in the Containing field. You can specify whether your results are detailed or terse and how you want Notes to sort them. If you want to execute a more advanced search query, choose More.
- When you finish defining your query, click Search to execute your search.
Advanced query options
If you choose More to execute an advanced query and you chose to search for a document, you can add more conditions to your query, as shown in the following screen:
Figure 4. The More tab of the Domain Search form
You can specify that Notes should search for the specified words in one or more of the following types of fields:
- Text
- Author
- Title
- Date created
- Date modified
For example, you could specify that you are looking for the words "Domino" and "failover" in Text fields, or that you are looking for "John Doe" in an Author field. You can also change the scope of your search. By default when you use Domain Search, you search all the databases in the Domain Index. However, you can target only databases that fall within a certain category. To categorize a database, open the database and choose File - Database - Properties. In the Design tab, you can include the database under a category. For example, you could categorize certain databases under Human Resources and others under Marketing. These categories appear in the More tab and you can choose to search only Human Resources.
Another advantage of R5 Domain Search is that you can also search an external file system. You can specify this by selecting File System in the More tab.We will discuss how to set this up later in the article. If you enable both the Notes Database and File system options, then the Domain Search query searches all information indexed in databases and file systems.
You can specify that you want Notes to search for word variants (also called stemming). This finds common variations of the word you search for. For example, if you search for the word "swim," Notes returns results that also contain "swimming," "swims," "swimmer," and so on.
You can also do a fuzzy search. If you choose this option and then misspell a word that you want to search for, Notes will usually find the word in spite of the misspelling.Even if you spell the word correctly, a fuzzy search finds misspelled words in documents and returns them in your search results. Fuzzy search also works well if you want to find information by searching for only a few characters as opposed to an entire word.
Lastly, the More tab allows you to control the number of results displayed per page when the results of your search come back. R5 now returns results to you page by page. If you specify 20 in this field and execute a search, Notes quickly returns the first 20 hits. It no longer calculates all of your search results before displaying the first 20. When you choose to view the next 20, it calculates and returns only those 20. This is a substantial gain in terms of performance.
The results appear after you execute your search. Results display with a relevance rank, the date of the document, the document type (Notes or file system), and the title as a link. If you specify that you want details, Notes returns a title, short description of the document or database, and the location of the document (which database it's in).
Figure 5. The Search Results form
You can edit a page of results and forward it to anyone you think would be interested in the information. When you have a Search Results page displayed in the Notes client, choose Actions - Forward and the results appear in the body of a new mail message. You can then edit the results or send them off to co-workers. When your co-workers open the e-mail, they can click any of the links in your search results and retrieve the information associated with it.
You can also cut and paste your search results into a separate document, or store the results somewhere else, such as in your group's TeamRoom database. This makes it easy to share information with others and to point people to documents you've found that may be helpful to them.
Behind the scenes -- How do you set up Domain Search?
To set up Domain Search, you must have an R5 server that is your Domain Catalog server. This server contains the Domain Catalog. The Domain Catalog is one of the central components necessary for Domain Search to work.
The Domain Catalog and the Database Catalog -- what's the difference?
A Domain Catalog and a Database Catalog are based on the same R5 Catalog template (catalog.ntf), and they collect similar information, but the Database Catalogs in R5 don't replicate as they did in R4.x. If you designate an R5 server as a Domain Catalog server, the Administration Process puts that server's name in the LocalDomainCatalogServers group, which has sufficient access to allow replication between Domain Catalogs. If the server is not a Domain Catalog server, the Administration Process puts the server in the LocalDomainServers group, which has only Reader rights in the Database Catalog ACL. This prevents replication of the Database Catalog and prevents it from collecting information from every server, growing to a large size, and taking up a lot of disk space on each server.
Database Catalogs exist on all new R5 servers by default (the NOTES.INI files have the line "ServerTasksAt1=Catalog", so the Catalog task will run every night at 1AM). Any given Database Catalog only contains information about the databases on its particular server. A server can have either a Domain Catalog or a Database Catalog, but not both.
Creating a Domain Catalog server
To create a Domain Catalog server, you have to install Domino R5, and then check that the design of the Domino Directory (formerly known as the Public Address Book) updated during installation. Next, you must edit the Server document to enable the "Domain wide indexer" and its Schedule. To enable the Domain wide indexer:
- Open the Domino Directory and find the Server document for the server you want to become your Domain Catalog server.
- Select the Server Tasks tab.
- Select the Domain Indexer tab.
- Enable the "Domain wide indexer"
field option and Schedule field.
Server document, Server Tasks tab
- The Domain Indexer runs according to the schedule you specify in the next three fields. By default, the Domain Indexer runs every 60 minutes. You will probably need to experiment with the schedule to meet the needs of your organization. The more often the indexer runs, the fresher the index will be, but the more CPU it requires.
- In the "Limit domain wide indexing
to the following servers" field, you can further restrict which
databases are indexed. If the field is empty, all databases are
indexed. If the field is not empty, the Domain Indexer only indexes
those databases that match the specified criteria. The field itself
is a Names type. Therefore, you can use various combinations of
text including wildcard characters, or multiple server names to
specify which databases you want to index. For example, Lotus
databases are hosted on servers identified by a hierarchy such as
/CAM/A/LOTUS and /CAM/M/LOTUS. Leaving this field blank causes the
Domain Indexer to index all databases with the multi-database bit
enabled on any of these servers. However, if you want to limit
Domain Indexer activity to just one of the servers, for example
mail servers designated by /M/LOTUS, enter */CAM/M/LOTUS in this
field. This makes it easy to exclude mail servers from the
Note: The "Limit domain wide indexing to the following servers" field is not available in the R5 beta releases.
Now instead of just a regular R5 server, you have a designated Domain Catalog server.
The Catalog task knows that if it runs on a Domain Catalog server, it should catalog databases on itself and then collect information from other Domino servers in its domain. It adds the information collected from databases to the Domain Catalog. If a Domain Catalog doesn't exist, the Catalog task creates the database from the catalog.ntf template.
Both the R5 Domain Catalog and the R5 Database Catalog collect considerably more information than the R4.x Database Catalog. They collect the database's:
- Title
- The server it is on
- File name
- Size (in bytes)
- Full ACL
- Replica ID
- Percentage used
- Creation date
- Number of documents
- Whether or not it is full-text indexed
- Whether or not it should be part of the multi-database index, or Domain Index
They also collect most of the information found in the Database Properties infobox. To see the Domain Catalog (catalog.nsf), open the database on the server that is your Domain Catalog server. The following screen shows the views within the Domain Catalog:
Figure 7. The Domain Catalog
You can also use the Domain Catalog to get information about database ACLs. For example, if someone leaves the company, you can look in the Domain Catalog and see all the databases where that person had Manager or Author access.
When the Catalog task runs, it collects the information listed above from the server it is on and creates one entry for each database in the Domain Catalog. It then looks for other Server documents in its Domino Directory. The Catalog task tries to connect to each server it sees in the directory. If it can connect, it first looks for a Database Catalog. If it finds one, it does a pull replication and takes in all of the information contained in the Database Catalog. (Remember, the Database Catalog contains the same information as the Domain Catalog.) If the task doesn't find a Database Catalog, it manually collects the necessary information from each individual database in turn. Then it creates entries in the Domain Catalog for each database and ends up with a listing of all the databases on all the servers in your domain. Lotus recommends that you have a Database Catalog on each server, because pull replication is faster than spidering each database individually to collect the required information.
But do you need more than one Domain Catalog server? If you have only one server in your organization, you can let it handle serving mail, applications, and search. As a rough rule of thumb, if you have eight or more Domino servers in your domain, you may want to dedicate a server for search. When the user load becomes too great for one Domain Catalog server, you can have multiple Domain Catalog servers. You set them up the same way you set up the first one. The second server simply replicates with the first server. The Domain Catalog is a database so it replicates with other Domain Catalog servers, however the actual binary index needs to build on each server. The second Domain Catalog server builds its own index by establishing its own sessions with the target servers and indexing their content. You should take this activity into account when scheduling your Domain indexing.If you have multiple Domain Catalog servers, you can cluster them and get the benefits of failover and load balancing.
Controlling what gets indexed
After you set up the Domain Catalog server, you will probably want to control the content included in the Domain Index. The Domain Indexer looks through all the entries in the Domain Catalog for a list of databases that have a specific bit ("Include in multi-database indexing") enabled. This tells the Domain Indexer to include that database in your Domain Index. The "Include in multi-database Indexing" option appears on the Design tab of the Database Properties box. If the Domain Indexer finds this bit enabled, it indexes the database. Then, users executing a Domain Search can find information contained in this database.
You can set the Domain Indexer to run as often as you like. When it runs, it looks in the Domain Catalog to see which databases it should index and includes the index information in the central index. The central index can be large, depending on the size of your domain.
You can use the Domino Administrator to control indexing centrally. You can select a group of databases and centrally enable this option. To do this:
- Open the Domino Administrator.
- Select the desired server.
- Select the Files tab.
- Shift and click to select the desired databases.
- Under Tools on the right side of the screen, expand the Database menu.
- Choose Tools - Multi-database Index.
If you want to include an individual database in the Domain Index:
- Open the database and choose File - Database - Properties.
- Select the Design tab.
- Select the "Include in multi-database indexing" option.
Indexing file systems
You can also index and search file systems. As long as the file system services of the operating system on which the Domain Catalog server runs can map a local drive or resource to the network volume, Domino can index the file system.
To set up file system indexing, use the File System document in the Domain Catalog. The File System document allows you to specify the file system directories and the file types to include in the index.
- Open the Domain Catalog (catalog.nsf).
- Choose Create - File System.
Figure 8. The File Systems tab
- Specify the name of the Domain Catalog server in the Server name field.
- Click the Set/Modify File System List button.
- Enter the specific directory in the
File System field and specify whether or not to recurse (or move
down the hierarchy of) subdirectories.
Figure 9. The File Systems section
- Enter the Directory or URL for the files. This path appears in front of the file name and helps retrieve the file when users click on the link in the Search Results page. If the files reside on the Domain Catalog server or a mapped drive, you can enter the directory path (or directory links) here. If the files reside on a server with an active HTTP server, you can enter the URL for the files. The remote HTTP server then serves the files to users when they click the link in the Search Results page. This is recommended since the remote HTTP server off-loads the file serving chore from Domino.
- Click the Next button, and enter another directory if there are other directories on this server you want to index.
- Click OK when you finish with all the directories.
HTML files are indexed through the file system. This means that the Domain Indexer won't spider a Web site. For example, if there are three HTML files on your indexed file system and one file has six links to other Web pages, the indexer won't follow those links and index information on those other pages.
In addition to creating File System documents to specify which directories to index, you need to create a Web Configuration document to map URLs to directories. This allows the Domino server to return the actual file to users when they click on the link on the Search Results page. To create a Web Configuration document:
- Open the Domino Directory and select the Server document for the server that is your Domain Catalog server.
- Choose Actions - Web - Create URL Mapping/Redirection.
- On the Basics tab, choose URL - Directory.
- On the Mapping tab, enter the directory or URL that you entered in the File System document you just created (step 7, above) in the Incoming URL string field. (for example, /spec_sheets)
- Enter the path to the indexed file directory in the Target server directory field (for example, r:\products\servers\spec_sheets)
This allows the Domino server to retrieve the files and deliver them to the user. For better performance, consider storing files on a file server that has its own HTTP services enabled. By creating a URL Redirection document pointing to this remote server, you'll off-load the file serving chores to the remote server, freeing up the Domain Catalog server to handle the next user query.
Indexing a file system is not as secure as indexing a Domino database. There is no Domino ACL for a file system as there is for a Notes database. If you want to index a file system, we recommend you don't put sensitive data in it. If you choose to index a file system, be aware that security only comes into play when a user attempts to open a document from the result list, not just when a user executes a query. Users can query the file system and get back index hits for documents that they don't have access to. When they try to open a document they don't have access to, they won't be successful, but they may discern the contents of a file by repeated queries.
Domain indexing in R5 automatically indexes file attachments in Domino databases. If you have an indexed document, and it has a .PDF file (or another popular file format) attached to it, Domino indexes that .PDF file. When users execute a Domain Search, the search engine can produce hits to the attached .PDF file as well as the other contents of that document.
Customizing the forms
Both the search form that appears when users execute a search and the results form that appears with the search results are customizable. An application developer can customize either form to include a corporate logo or bitmap or re-arrange the fields.
You can create additional, customized query forms and create a setup profile in the Domino Administrator to push bookmarks to the new forms to users. The bookmark should appear in the Search folder under the user's bookmarks folder. For example, you can set up a form that allows users to search just Human Resources databases, or a form users can use to do stored queries (search for the same thing repeatedly).
Domain Search in R5 combines the ease and scope of Web searching with the power and security of Notes. This makes it easy to find the knowledge you're looking for anywhere in your domain. Lotus will continue to enhance Domain Search in Notes and Domino knowing that the ability to search for needed information is a critical aspect in the future of knowledge management.

Ode to My Socks
by Pablo Neruda
Ode to My Socks Theme of Transformation
The socks in "Ode to My Socks," as ordinary as they may be, are constantly being transformed into animals and objects that highlight the beauty of the socks and the speaker's reluctance to put them on and ruin their beauty with a hairy big toe and unkempt nails. (Ew!) In fact, the poem itself does the work of transforming the everyday object of the socks into something wondrous.
Questions About Transformation
- If the poem seems to be about bringing poetry into the everyday, why does the poet transform or compare the socks to so many other, sometimes extraordinary, objects?
- How does the poet use and transform the traditional ode, and what is the effect of this transformation?
- What other images would you suggest for transforming the socks, in order to change or deepen the meaning of the poem?
Chew on This
Ain't poetry grand? "Ode to My Socks" shows the magical power of poetry to transform everyday objects into something special.
There's more than meets the eye here. In "Ode to My Socks," the socks are transformed into all sorts of animals and objects, but the traditional form of the ode is also transformed.

"I feel that there was insufficient notice of this resolution," said Rich Verrilli, who also is editor of the Contra Costa County Democratic Party central committee's newsletter, Democratic Dispatch.
The agenda for Thursday night's party meeting only noted that Pinole Mayor Maria Alegria would attend, not that there would be a vote on a resolution.
"We never got into a detailed discussion of why the recall came about," Verrilli said Friday.
Alegria, who faces a recall election Feb. 5 along with Councilman Stephen Tilton, said in an e-mail Friday that she is grateful for the party's support.
"Once people learn the truth about the recall that it's bad public policy and about personal agendas, they will not only oppose the recall but reject the misleading tactics used by the recall organizers," she wrote.
Pinole Councilwoman Mary Horton, who backs a recall, said she learned about the party meeting from a fellow Pinole resident just hours before it began. Horton asked to speak but was cut off after about three minutes, while Alegria and Tilton each spoke five minutes or more, Verrilli said.
"I thought this was a very unfair procedure," Verrilli said. "We should always allow equal time to both sides.
Party Chairman Nagaraja Rao, in a statement explaining the resolution after Thursday night's meeting in an Electrical Workers union hall in Martinez, said: "Good public policy should be based on facts and not on political alliances or falsehoods. The recall in Pinole is a distraction from the real issues facing Democrats, which is to work together to support Democratic principles and values.
"That's why we ask our fellow Democrats to reject the recall."
Alegria and Tilton are targeted for recall because of their role in dismissing former City Manager Belinda Espinosa and for their friendship with a local restaurateur who failed for two years to make payments on more than $400,000 in city loans.
Horton urged the committee Thursday to hold off on a resolution until the members got all the facts.
After the meeting, Rao said his members are quite aware of the issues from reading newspaper reports.
"We voted on the merits," Rao said.
Tilton said he is "very honored" that the county party offered its support.
"This is not something that happened in one day," he said. "This was a request two months ago by the mayor."
He said Horton, in her comments to the party, said nothing substantive about the recall.
"She said it was a grass-roots effort, but no one from the recall group showed up except Mary," he said.
Verrilli said he does not believe the party should interfere in a local, nonpartisan race.
Earlier this week, two other regional groups -- the Contra Costa Deputy Sheriffs Association and firefighters Local 1230, which represents Pinole as well as county and other city firefighters -- came out against the recall.
Jeff Rubin, spokesman for recall sponsor Concerned Citizens of Pinole, said he was not surprised by the county Democrats' stand.
"She (Alegria) can get 101 endorsements," Rubin said, "and with her connections, I wouldn't be surprised if she gets that many.
"But that doesn't discount the fact that 2,700 people signed petitions to remove her from office."
Rubin said he doubts whether organizations that are not based in Pinole will significantly affect the recall vote.
"Unions and other organizations always endorse candidates," Rubin said. "It's to be expected. Half the time they back a winner, half the time they back a loser."
Horton said Friday, "Why are all these outsiders telling Pinoleans how to think and vote?"

Jim Chanos made a name for himself when he bet against Enron when no one else would. These days, he has focused his efforts on shorting China. China just wrapped up its 3rd Plenum and announced reforms including loosening its one-child policy and abolishing the re-education through labor camps. With this in mind, we look back on some of the sharp insights Chanos has had about China. We also reflect on some of his many other brilliant quotes during his career as a short-seller."When the leaders are all billionaires we must say that the Marxist-Leninist ideology has maybe been watered down a

Phoenix reveals Martian permafrost
May 27, 2008 2 comments
Polygons similar in appearance to surface patterns in Earth's arctic regions are among the first features identified by NASA's Phoenix mission, which touched down on Mars early yesterday morning at 0053 GMT.
The features imply that the landing area around Phoenix has permafrost, which is known to generate polygonal patterns on Earth by continual expansion and contraction. Although polygons had been spotted before from space, these ones seen at close range appear to be somewhat smaller — 1.5 to 2.5 m across — leading some NASA scientists to suggest that there is a hierarchy of "polygons within polygons". As of yet, there have been no glimpses of surface ice.
Other images taken by Phoenix's onboard cameras confirm that the spacecraft is in "good health", having endured a nine-month, 679 million-mile journey and a tricky landing involving descent engines — the first time this type of landing has been performed successfully since 1976. NASA scientists are relieved that Phoenix did not suffer the fate of its two predecessors — the Mars Climate Orbiter and the Mars Polar Lander — which both failed in 1999.
Phoenix is now preparing to begin its three-month mission on Mars to investigate the origin of the ground ice, the operation of climate cycles and the possibility of microbial life.
• UPDATE 29/05/08: You can listen to a sound recording of Phoenix's landing here.

1. I need a schedule option so that the traffic software will automatically grab the newest log files on a specified interval. Ideally I would like the logs grabbed every 24 hours, and then processed.
2. I need the ability to look at the traffic stats for each individual site, as well as look at the overall stats for a specific group of sites. An example would be that I have 10 sites in a group. I want to see how traffic looks at all of them combined on one report. Think of it as a summary report. I do not want to look at each site individually, and then have to manually add everything up.
3. Web interface for seeing stats and config. I do not want to have to access the server directly.
Urchin does all of this perfectly. I wish I could find another solution with better support.

At MIT, Soul-Searching Follows in Swartz Case
Internet Activist Dies as Legal Case Stalls
The Massachusetts Institute of Technology said it is going to examine its own role in the fallout of the case of Aaron Swartz, an Internet activist who committed suicide last week.
In 2011, Swartz was arrested in Boston and charged with stealing more than four million academic articles via the computer network at MIT. He pleaded not guilty, and his trial was expected to begin this year.
The soul-searching comes at a time when Web denizens are calling for a re-think to the government's approach to prosecuting hacktivists. For example, many on the Web see an act like this more akin to a Robin Hood-like stunt.
But reports in the Wall Street Journal suggest that the case strained Swartz as hopes for a deal with federal prosecutors fell apart. Prosecutors threatened to put him in prison for more than three decades.
"Aaron's death is not simply a personal tragedy," Swartz's family wrote in a statement published on the Web, according to the Journal's report. "It is the product of a criminal justice system rife with intimidation and prosecutorial overreach."
Here is the full text of MIT's response published Sunday:
To the members of the MIT community:
Yesterday we received the shocking and terrible news that on Friday in New York, Aaron Swartz, a gifted young man well known and admired by many in the MIT community, took his own life. With this tragedy, his family and his friends suffered an inexpressible loss, and we offer our most profound condolences. Even for those of us who did not know Aaron, the trail of his brief life shines with his brilliant creativity and idealism.
Although Aaron had no formal affiliation with MIT, I am writing to you now because he was beloved by many members of our community and because MIT played a role in the legal struggles that began for him in 2011.
I want to express very clearly that I and all of us at MIT are extremely saddened by the death of this promising young man who touched the lives of so many. It pains me to think that MIT played any role in a series of events that have ended in tragedy.
I will not attempt to summarize here the complex events of the past two years. Now is a time for everyone involved to reflect on their actions, and that includes all of us at MIT. I have asked Professor Hal Abelson to lead a thorough analysis of MIT's involvement from the time that we first perceived unusual activity on our network in fall 2010 up to the present. I have asked that this analysis describe the options MIT had and the decisions MIT made, in order to understand and to learn from the actions MIT took. I will share the report with the MIT community when I receive it.
I hope we will all reach out to those members of our community we know who may have been affected by Aaron's death. As always, MIT Medical is available to provide expert counseling, but there is no substitute for personal understanding and support.
With sorrow and deep sympathy,
L. Rafael Reif

The South Korean shot a six-under 66 at the Guadalajara Country Club to bring her to a 54-hole total of 15-under 201, just ahead of American Cristie Kerr, who posted 67 for 203.
Six birdies – three on the front nine and three on the back – put the 24-year-old Park out in front on the eve of Sunday's final round.
And having won July's Evian Masters in France and picked up the LPGA Malaysia last month she will be looking for more solid form on Sunday in a bid for a third title and to stay in the battle with Stacy Lewis in the Player of the Year points race.
Second-ranked Lewis, who grabbed her fourth 2012 title last week in Japan and is attempting to become the first US golfer to win the award since Beth Daniel in 1994, rounded up the day on a 71.
Park currently lags 58 points behind Lewis, meaning she will need to win this event along with the season finale next week to have a chance of passing her.
But she did not dwell on the pressure and instead expressed delight with her recent performances.
"That would be two big achievements this season," said Park, who leads LPGA Tour money list. "Earlier this season, everything didn't really work well, especially my putting.
"I was just trying to find the right stroke and right putter. I kept trying different putters and kept trying different strokes and just finally found my stroke. I felt really comfortable after that.
"I can't expect Stacy to play bad two events in a row. Even if I don't win player of the year, I've had a really great season and I'm really satisfied with myself," she added.
South Korea's So Yeon Ryu ended the day in third spot after she carded a 67 for 204 while American Angela Stanford, who held a one-shot lead over Park going into the third round, finished with a 72 for 205.
Mexican star and tournament host Ochoa, who retired in 2010, shot three-under for 70 and is sharing 19th place while top-ranked Yani Tseng was one-over after a 76.

"Call Me Maybe" (Chatroulette version) is Steve Kardynal's latest costumed lip-sync cover video - and as usual it comes complete with hilarious & happy audience reaction shots. If you like this, you'll probably also enjoy his Chatroulette versions of Katy Perry's "Peacock" (previously) and Lady GaGa's "Telephone" (previously). All videos may be considered NSFWish.

4 (to 6) easy steps to viral fame through pop music: 1) write and record a catchy pop song, 2) get radio play for your song, and 3) get Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez to hear your song, so 4) they tweet about enjoying your song. Bonus steps to further fame: 5) make a video that has a twist ending, which 6) people (including Bieber and Gomez) cover and remake and share online for further fame and fortune. Thanks to all this, Carly Rae Jepsen's pop dance song has moved beyond Canada, and is charting all over the world.

Mainers Warned Of Electricity Disconnection SCAM - Nov. 12, 2013
Augusta, Maine -- The Maine Public Utilities Commission (MPUC), the Office of the Public Advocate (OPA), and Maine's Attorney General are warning Mainers of a nationwide scam involving the threat of disconnection of their electric service.
The scam involves telephone callers claiming to be from a utility company and then employing a variety of techniques to defraud customers. Some threaten customers with disconnecting electric service to their home or business if they don't make a payment immediately. The scam artist instructs them to send money via prepaid card or online payment service, such as PayPal or GreenDot, before their power is shut off.
The scammer's caller-ID is falsified so it appears to originate from the utility company, a practice known as "spoofing." A significant number of Maine consumers have reported receiving these types of calls.
"With cold temperatures on their way, uninterrupted electric service is especially critical for all of us. Unfortunately, there are unscrupulous people out there who try to take advantage of our need for this vital service," observed MPUC Chair Thomas Welch. "We urge people to be wary of scams like the one described here."
Tim Schneider, Public Advocate, added, "Any threat to shut off power is scary, but particularly for the small business customers this scam is targeting. Be sure to call your utility directly before making any payments based on an unsolicited call."
Janet Mills, Maine's Attorney General, added, "No legitimate business will ask you to wire them money or tell you to send them a gift card to make a payment. If you receive a call like this, the best thing to do is to just hang up and do not engage with the caller."
If you receive a phone call, email, text, or even a visit from someone telling you to make a utility payment via PayPal, or to buy a GreenDot card or a gift card, it's probably a scam. Do not make the payment and instead call your utility company at the phone number that appears on your bill, describe what happened, and report the scammers to Maine's Attorney General's Consumer Information and Mediation Service's at 1-800-436-2131 or the Federal Trade Commission, by calling 1-877-FTC-HELP.
If you are the victim of one of these scams and are unable to negotiate a mutually agreeable payment arrangement with your utility, you can call the MPUC's Consumer Assistance Division for assistance at 1-800-452-4699.

With recent version of VirtualBox you no longer need to create a bridge and tap to enable host networking. In the settings panel of the virtual machine, select the network tab, and make sure that its set on bridged adapter. VirtualBox automatically creates a virtual ethernet adapter, and bridges it to the network of the host machine.
Bridging to the host network is necessary for the virtual machine to get an ip address from the router. Such a configuration is needed to communicate with the machine from the outside world. Because of this feature virtual machines can server website, and other services. I use my virtual machine to host this website, a visual ftp server, a wiki, and an EyesOS server.
There are other ways to forward individual ports from the host system to the guest, but then the ports on the host machine will not be accessible on the host; they will virtually represent the guest OS thus hindering connectivity with the host machine. There may be instances where this is what is wanted and more information, including instruction, can be found on this previous post.
The following is a screenshot of the network tab in VirtualBox. It had a bridge adapter option that will autobridge the connection to an existing ethernet adapter. Bare in mind that this is the screen from a Linux install of VirtualBox and it might be different in Windows. I remember in Windows you might have the option to create a virtual ethernet adapter, and then you can bridge the connection all in VirtualBox. Nothing needs to be done manually anymore, and everything can be done from within the VirtualBox configuration panels.
Here is a screen from Windows Vista. Go to the network tab of the virtual machine settings:
Then select the attach to drop down menu:
Then change the attach to, drop down menu, to bridged adapter:

The NGC Universal ID is a four digit alphanumeric that groups coins based on a unique combination of date, mintmark, denomination and striking process (MS, PF, or SP). These IDs are a simple organization of all coins prior to variety attribution and grading.
The 1901-S is the rarest S-mint dollar in the 1897-1902 period. While relatively common in circulated grades, it is very scarce in mint state, indicating the majority of this issue went directly into circulation and few were saved. This piece was saved, however, and according to the consignor, along with a 1901-S dime, quarter, and half dollar (offered elsewhere in this catalog), all were found in the cornerstone of a schoolhouse in Reno, Nevada.
In his landmark book on Morgan and Peace dollars, Wayne Miller makes the statement, 'There is no 'typical' BU specimen of the 1901-S dollar.' Meaning, there are a wide variety of finishes seen on this issue.
