More ECB Non-Standard Policy Not in Cards for Now, Coeure Says
The European Central Bank sees no immediate need for further non-standard measures to support the economy or counter the debt crisis, executive board member Benoit Coeure said.
"The view of the governing council is that we don't need additional non-standard measures at the current juncture," Coeure said when asked if the ECB may implement quantitative easing. "It's not on the table at the current juncture," he said in an interview in Aix-en-Provence, France on July 6.
The Frankfurt-based central bank's decision on July 5 to lower interest rates -- including cutting the rate it pays on overnight deposits to zero -- fueled speculation it may eventually be forced to follow the U.S. Federal Reserve and the Bank of England with large-scale asset purchases known as quantitative easing. After the decision, ECB President Mario Draghi said the cut may have only a "muted" economic impact.
Coeure said that lowering the deposit rate into the negative is a "theoretical" possibility, though it also isn't a move that the ECB needs to make right now.
"Some central banks have done that," he said, citing the Danish central bank. "I don't think this is appropriate for the ECB at the current juncture. It's a theoretical possibility."
The ECB's rate cuts came within 45 minutes of China lowering borrowing costs and the Bank of England restarting its asset purchases, adding to a new round of global monetary stimulus. With Europe's debt crisis curbing growth across the continent and damping the outlook for the world economy, the ECB was under pressure to ease policy even though Draghi last month voiced misgivings about the effectiveness of a rate reduction.
Rising Yields
Coeure said purchases of Italian and Spanish government debt may be considered if monetary policy requires it.
The additional yield investors demand to hold Spanish 10-year bonds rather than benchmark German bunds rose to 563 basis points on July 6 from 486 basis points on July 2. Spain's 10-year yield rose 62 basis points in the week that ended July 6, the most since the five days through June 15, to 6.95 percent. It reached 7.04 percent on the day, the highest since June 20.
Italy's comparable debt yielded about 6.03 percent.
Italian Prime Minister Mario Monti said yesterday that the current level of yield spreads on European sovereign debt remains a concern and that the Euro Group of finance ministers should act to counter them.
"This is an issue that the European Council has underlined as one to be addressed when it met in Brussels," Monti told journalists at Aix-en-Provence, France. "It was decided that the Euro Group should work on this."
On July 7, Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy said euro-zone countries must urgently implement decisions including government bond purchases agreed to in June as the country can't finance its deficit under current conditions.
ECB Purchases
The region's finance ministers gather today in Brussels for a regular monthly meeting.
"If the governments decide to do it they should go ahead," Coeure told a meeting of the Circle of Economists. "That doesn't mean the ECB can't buy Italian and Spanish debt on the market, but they'll do it if it needs to for reasons of monetary policy and not otherwise."
Asked why the ECB won't finance the European Stability Mechanism, he said providing unlimited financing for the bailout fund to support government borrowing would contravene the treaty agreements that it works under.
While the ECB "may have the right to lend to the European Stability Mechanism to create bridge financing," using the money for "buying government bonds in an unlimited manner is clearly non-compliant with the treaty," he said.
Coeure said the current priority must be for European governments to implement the decisions made by their leaders at a meeting in Brussels.
Euro-region finance ministers will aim to enact the June 29 agreement at a meeting today, European Union President Herman Van Rompuy has said.
"It will take time for the decisions taken by European leaders to be fully understood by markets and they have to be implemented," Coeure said. "For me, the priority is for the decisions to be taken by European leaders to be quickly implemented."

Amid the discussions about the future of human spaceflight it's sometimes possible to forget that there's a remarkable spacecraft — the International Space Station — that's been in orbit about Earth for more than a decade.
But it's not hard to forget when the space station flies in front of the Sun. Check out this great shot of the ISS transiting the Sun by Luis Argerich, taking in Buenos Aries yesterday:

Skill Level Intermediate
Now it's time to add some additional synth parts. I'll begin by adding the texture-- synth pads, things of that nature. Create a new MIDI track. And I will move towards some of Ableton's built-in synth sounds for this portion. Right away I'll move to the Synth Pad folder and this Amped sound, just by its name alone, is intriguing to me, so I'm bringing this in, and take a listen to it.
(music playing) It's a very vibey spatial sound. I like it. (music playing) Go ahead and lay that in. And I'll start right round the first chorus. (music playing) That works. It almost has a Brian Eno-type vibe, which I like.
And again, a nice 8-bar region here to work with. And I already know that's a chorus part, and I'll quickly distribute that to the other chorus sections of the song, and taking a quick listen. (music playing) Excellent! I like the sound, but I'm going to apply a very cool remixing technique that you actually hear in quite a few songs, even on the radio today: side chaining a compressor.
So the first thing I do is I go into the Audio Effects folder and I choose Compressor. And I open it up so that I have the ability to get into some of these other parameters, and I'll turn on the Sidechain. Then I'll create an extra audio track, which I will call kick trigger. Now, there are several ways to do this, but I feel that this actually makes the most sense.
I'll copy and paste the kick drum onto the kick trigger track, mute the kick trigger track, go back to the pad track that we just added, and select kick trigger as the Input source to trigger the sidechain. So now what's going to happen is the kick drum that's playing every quarter note is going to pump the compressor, and the pad will respond accordingly. (music playing) We'll go right up to the chorus so we can hear it. (music playing) And as we solo it out, we can hear it. It has a pumping breathing effect. Pretty cool! It adds a little bit of rhythm to the track, pulses it.
Unsolo that. And now I'll just fill in some holes here. I like what the bass is doing, but I think there could be some more movement, so I'll create another MIDI track. Go into the Synth Rhythmic and choose Bass Groove. Just to hear what this is doing. (music playing) It's like an arpeggiated bass sound. (music playing) It's a little bit low. Let's move it up an octave. (music playing) I'll just play that in and see how that feels.
But I'll do this on the verses. It's not something I only want for the choruses. I'll go back to measure 5, and do our 1-bar count in. (music playing) Let's trim that region up there. And I need to bring this back because it's actually pretty loud and it's kind of in the way.
So let's quickly loop this 8-bar section here and play it from measure 5. (music playing) Bring it back that much, because I just want to actually feel it more than I can hear it.
So let's take the loop play-off and copy and paste this throughout the whole song. We may drop it out, but for now we'll paste it throughout the whole song. Let's add another layer. Let's add a layer to this pad. I like this pad here, but I think it could be a little bit thicker; it can be enhanced. (music playing) So I'll create another track, and this is very easy.
We'll select another pad sound. I'll go into the Synthetic Voice folder, look for something that almost has like a choir-type sound, and Additive Choir, double-click on that. We'll listen to it. (music playing) Now, that sound doesn't sound so cool on its own, but what we're going to do is copy and paste the MIDI from the other pad part down to this track and create a layer. This is something I like to do to thicken and just create different textures.
Now, what we'll also do is add the compressor, just like we did on the other pad track, and choose Compressor. Open up the parameters, choose Sidechain, and assign kick trigger. I'll need to lower the threshold to actually engage the compressor, because right now it's all the way up at the top. (music playing) Now, I like that, but it's an octave too low.
So I'll erase what I pasted, double-click on these notes here, and we can see the MIDI data, and highlight them, and move them up an octave. And I know that my first note was G, and you can see on the side there, the piano roll. That should do it. Taking a listen. (music playing) Something didn't move correctly there, so I'm going to undo that, and I can see that my notes moved.
So again, you have to be careful when doing some of this editing that things stay in place. I'll just do Select All and move this up to D4. Let's take another listen. (music playing) Excellent! That sounds much better.
Copy and paste this to the other choruses. So I'll leave the MIDI notes area, go back to my vocal here. Resize the screen a little bit. And actually, at this juncture, I'll very quickly put the vocal in some sort of context, as far as adding a quick delay to it. And actually, I'll add a compressor to it as well, just something very basic. Turn my sends up. Throw a reverb on Return A and a delay on Return B, just so that we're not listening to a dry, boring vocal.
I like Filter Delay. And I'll set this so that it has kind of an interesting rhythm to it. I'll just quickly take a listen to the vocal. (music playing) I'll turn the metronome off. (music playing) It gives a little depth to the vocal, so, putting everything back in the mix. There we go. (music playing) Obviously, when I mix it for real I'll clean that up a little bit, but that just gives us a little bit of context.
Again, the delay's echo adds a little bit of rhythm and pulse into the track. So now we have more or less the synths that we're going to use in the song. One thing I'm going to add in the next movie is what I would call a hype, but right now you can see that as with the drums, it just took a few minutes to add some parts, do some layering, do some transposition, and all of a sudden we have a pretty full sounding arrangement that's unfolding. Now that we have a few foundational synth parts in place, you can really hear the arrangement coming together. I generally like to leave my synth parts as MIDI all the way up through the final mix down.
The one disclaimer is if I am working on a laptop and using CPU-intensive sounds, at which point I will print them as audio and just bring them back into the session.

Dear all,
I don't know if this is possible or not .....
My colleague and I have the same user to log into a UNIX server.
I have my PC and my colleague has his, both PCs have X-windows server.
Is there a way to set DISPLAY parameter on the UNIX server to make it
possible that me or my colleague can run X-windows applications on the
UNIX server without having to change the DISPLAY variable on the UNIX
server each time?
Right now, if he wants to run a X-windows application on the UNIX
server, he changes the value of DISPLAY to point to his machine:0.0,
and if I want to do the same I change DISPLAY to point to my
I know that this is possible using SSH with tunneling and X11
forwarding, but still curious to know if it's possible by manipulating
the :0.0 part of the DISPLAY value?!
Thanks for any contribution!

American Airlines loads drop 5 points in international markets in June
American Airlines Group reported Wednesday that its load factor – percentage of seats filled – dropped five percentage points on American's and US Airways' international routes in June compared to a year earlier.
It's not as though traffic was declining. It reported traffic gains across the Atlantic (+1.4 percent) and Pacific (+0.5 percent), with only Latin America down slightly (-0.1 percent).
But capacity was up in those three regions – 7.8 percent Atlantic, 3.6 percent Pacific and 6.9 percent Latin America – meaning that there were more added seats to fill than there were additional passengers to fill them.
As a result, the percentage of seats filled on the international part of the American-US Airways network fell 5 points, from 85.9 percent in June 2013 to 80.9 percent last month.
Atlantic routes dropped 5.4 points to 84.5 percent; Pacific fell 2.6 points to 88.1 percent; and Latin America dropped 5.2 points to 75.4 percent.
By contrast, domestic traffic increased 0.9 percent on a 1.6 percent increase in capacity. Load factor there was off only 0.6 percentage points to 88.2 percent.
Both Lufthansa and Air France KLM have raised concerns about excessive capacity on international routes. On Tuesday, American chairman and CEO Doug Parker said demand remained strong and that he had no particular concerns about capacity.

Following an outbreak of 2009 pandemic influenza A (H1N1) at a residential summer camp for boys aged 10–16 years, we assessed secondary household transmission of the novel virus after their return home. Of 212 study participants who attended camp, 49 had confirmed or probable influenza for a primary attack rate of 23%. Of 87 exposed household contacts who did not attend camp, only three instances of probable transmission were observed, for a household secondary attack rate of 3·5%. All secondary cases occurred in households where the ill camp attendee returned home 1 day after onset of illness, with an attack rate of 14·3% in household contacts in this category. Returning home after peak infectivity to others and advanced warning prior to reintegration of sick individuals into the household probably contributed to the overall low secondary attack rate observed.

The best way to investigate and play with a technology is within a virtual environment. So with that in mind I wanted to try and setup an Automated Install (AI) in a VirtualBox environment.
NOTE : Blogs by Chris Armes, Configuring an auto install client / server setup in VirtualBox and Joe Vlcek, Automated Install Using VirtualBox, were used extensively as references in following this process.
NOTE : All of the commands I performed as root. Run following command before starting : $ pfexec su
NOTE : One caveat I will mention, I've noticed that getting the network set up correctly BEFORE creating the install service and creating the initial DHCP server settings is vital, and changes to the AI server VM network setup, requires and reset of the DHCP server and the install-services. 1. Create And Install VirtualBox Server VM
Create a new guest VM in VirtualBox for the AI server, with following setup, ensure you configure network interfaces before booting up, Network Adapter 1, should be left as the default value of NAT. Name : ai-server Network Interfaces : Adapter 1: Intel PRO/1000 MT Desktop (NAT) Adapter 2: Intel PRO/1000 MT Desktop (internal network, 'AI') Base Memory : 1024 MB
Install OpenSolaris 2009.06 or later in this guest. ISO can be got from http://hub.opensolaris.org/bin/view/Main/TryOpenSolaris.
NOTE: Remeber the name you provided when installing as you'll use this later, the default is "opensolaris". 2. Configure AI-Server VM.
Once installed, reboot into the AI-Server VM, and perform the following steps : 2.1. Set preferred pkg repository
By default OpenSolaris install's will point to publisher http://pkg.opensolaris.org/release, if you want to continue using the released repository then thats fine, however I prefer to use the latest dev repository. $ pkg set-publisher -O http://pkg.opensolaris.org/dev opensolaris.org 2.2. Install required installadm tools
$ pkg install SUNWinstalladm-tools 2.3. Configure network SMF services
By default NWAM is turned on, you need to disable this and enable network/physical:default SMF instead : $ svcadm disable network/physical:nwam $ svcadm enable network/physical:default 2.4. Configure Network Adapter 1 to be DHCP
$ ifconfig e1000g0 dhcp $ touch /etc/dhcp.e1000g0
Everytime you boot your ai-server VM you will need to ensure this interface is plumbed and the set up for dhcp, I've yet to determine why. $ ifconfig e1000g0 plumb $ ifconfig e1000g0 dhcp 2.5. Configure Network Adaptor 2, Step 1 : /etc/hosts
Edit /etc/hosts adding the following lines 10.0.2.15 ai-server 192.168.2.50 ai-server-private 192.168.2.60 ai-client0 192.168.2.61 ai-client1 192.168.2.62 ai-client2 192.168.2.63 ai-client3 192.168.2.64 ai-client4
ai-server is the name I called my Server VM when installing, by default this is called opensolaris. You can add as many ai-client lines as you like, I just added 5.
Also comment out the lines ::1 and 127.0.0.1 as follows #::1 ai-server ai-server.local localhost loghost #127.0.0.1 ai-server ai-server.local localhost loghost 2.6. Configure Network Adaptor 2, Step 2 : /etc/netmasks
Edit /etc/netmasks adding the following lines : 10.0.2.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0 2.7. Configure Network Adaptor 2, Step 3 : hostname.e1000g1
Enter the IP assigned to the server in /etc/hosts into this file:
Enter the server name assigned to interface /etc/hosts : $ cat hostname.e1000g1 ai-server-private 2.8. Configure Network Adaptor 2, Step 3 : ifconfig
$ ifconfig e1000g1 inet 192.168.2.50 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.2.0 $ ifconfig e1000g1 up 2.9. Enable ipv4 fowarding :
$ routeadm -e ipv4-fowarding $ routeadm -u 2.10. Ensure Your name service is using DNS on ai-server VM
$ grep ^ipnodes /etc/nsswitch.conf | grep dns ipnodes: files dns # Added by DHCP $ grep ^hosts /etc/nsswitch.conf | grep dns hosts: files dns # Added by DHCP 2.11. Ensure /etc/resolv.conf contains valid IP's of DNS servers
On ai-server VM : $ cat /etc/resolv.conf domain ireland.sun.com 111.111.22.01 111.111.22.02
NOTE : These IP's are for illustration purposes only, and don't actually exist. 2.12. Ensure dns SMF services are enabled :
$ svcs dns/client:default online 12:44:41 svc:/network/dns/client:default $ svcs enable network/dns/multicast:default $ svcs dns/multicast:default online 12:44:41 svc:/network/dns/multicast:default 2.13. Configure NAT and enable ipfilter SMF service
Create /etc/ipf/ipnat.conf : $ echo "map e1000g0 192.168.2.0/24 -> 0/32" > /etc/ipf/ipnat.conf
Enable ipfilter SMF service : $ svcadm enable network/ipfilter:default
This can sometimes timeout and fail, depending on your hardware setup, to get around this simply increase the start/timeout_seconds SMF property, and try restarting. $ svcadm disable network/ipfilter:default $ svccfg -s network/ipfilter:default setprop start/timeout_seconds = 90 $ svcadm enable network/ipfilter:default 2.14. Ensure route:default SMF service is enabled
Ensure route:default SMF service is online : $ svcs routing/route:default STATE STIME FMRI online 10:21:13 svc:/network/routing/route:default
If not online then enable it : $ svcadm enable /network/routing/route:default 3. Download AI Client Image
Download an AI ISO image to use with your automated install, this can be got from http://www.opensolaris.com/get/index.jsp.
Before downloading I created image and server location areas : $ mkdir /export/home/ai-images $ mkdir /export/home/ai-servers
Here's a convenient download command : $ mkdir /export/home/ai-images $ wget http://dlc.sun.com/osol/opensolaris/...906-ai-x86.iso 4. Create Install Service
When creating your first install service you need to supply DHCP network information, e.g -i and -c flags. Subsequent create-service calls do not require this information. $ installadm create-service -n osol-0906-x86 -i 192.168.2.60 -c 5 -s /export/home/ai-images/osol-0906-ai-x86.iso /export/home/ai-servers/osol-0906-ai-x86 Setting up the target image at /export/home/ai-servers/osol-0906-x86 ... Registering the service osol-0906-x86._OSInstall._tcp.local Creating DHCP Server Created DHCP configuration file. Created dhcptab. Added "Locale" macro to dhcptab. Added server macro to dhcptab - ai-server. DHCP server started. dhtadm: Unable to signal the daemon to reload the dhcptab Unable to determine the proper default router or gateway for the 192.168.2.0 subnet. The default router or gateway for this subnet will need to be provided later using the following command: /usr/sbin/dhtadm -M -m 192.168.2.0 -e Router= -g Added network macro to dhcptab - 192.168.2.0. Created network table. adding tftp to /etc/inetd.conf Converting /etc/inetd.conf copying boot file to /tftpboot/pxegrub.I86PC.OpenSolaris-1 Service discovery fallback mechanism set up
This will create install service osol-0906-x86. If you wanted to create another service with a different AI Iso Image, e.g. dev-131 you would use the following : $ installadm create-service -n dev-131 -s /export/home/ai-images/dev-131.iso /export/home/ai-servers/dev-131 Setting up the target image at /export/home/ai-servers/dev-131 ... Registering the service dev-131._OSInstall._tcp.local Service discovery fallback mechanism set up 5. Ensure tftp SMF service is enabled
Initial call to installadm create-service will add an entry to /etc/inetd.conf to start the tftp SMF Service, at this point just make sure it's enabled : $ svcs -a | grep tftp online 11:46:48 svc://network/tftp/udp6:default
If it's not online then enable it : $ svcadm enable network/tftp/udp6:default 6. Configure DHCP
Run dhcpmgr GUI tool
Select macros tab and double click on the dhcp_macro_osol-0906-x86 to bring up a macro properties dialog ensure the following macros are set : Option Name : Router Option Value : 192.168.2.50 Option Name : DNSserv Option Value : Option Name : BootSrvA Option Value : 10.0.2.15
NOTE : DNSserv will need to be changed when you move the system around to the correct DNS entries specifed in /etc/resolv.conf.
You will need to set these macros for each service that is created using create-service. 7. Verify Install Server Available
Launch browser and browse to http:/localhost:5555, you should see "Index of /" page. You can also use installadm list : $ installadm list Service Name Status Arch Port Image Path ------------ ------ ---- ---- ---------- osol-0906-x86 on x86 46501 /export/home/ai-servers/osol-0906-x86 dev-131 on x86 46502 /export/home/ai-servers/dev-131 8. Create And Configure VirtualBox Client VM
Create another VirtualBox VM for the client : Name : ai-client0 Network Interfaces : Adapter 1: Intel PRO/1000 MT Desktop (internal network, 'AI') Base Memory : 1024 MB Boot Sequence : Network, Floppy, CD/DVD ROM, Hard Disk
You can assign a specific client to use a specific install service using the network adapters MAC address. This can be seen by clicking on advanced when viewing the network adaptor, before the VM guest is started.
To assign this client to the dev-131 install service you would do the following on the server VM, lets assume MAC address is 01:08:00:27:28:C3:1D : $ installadm create-client -n dev-131 -e 01:08:00:27:28:C3:1D Setting up X86 client... Service discovery fallback mechanism set up Enabled network boot by adding macro named 0108002727C31D to DHCP server with: Boot server IP (BootSrvA) : 192.168.2.50 Boot file (BootFile) : 0108002728C31D
Now when you boot the client it will specificaly attempt to install using the dev-131 install service. 9. Boot and Install Client
Start up your new VirtualBox Client, it should boot from the network and get a DHCP address assigned from the ai-server VM, and should present you with a grub menu item to perform an automated install. 10. Amending the default manifest.
For more information see the section "How to change or replace the default manifest?" at http://www.opensolaris.org/os/projec...est_setup.html. 10.1. Determine the target image path for your specific service :
$ svccvg -s :/system/install/server:default listprop AI<svcname>/image_path Where svcname is your newly created install service e.g. : $ svccvg -s :/system/install/server:default listprop AIosol-0906-x86/image_path AIosol-0906-x86/image_path astring /export/home/ai-servers/osol-0906-x86 10.2. Make a copy of the default manifest
$ cp /export/home/ai-servers/osol-0906-x86/auto_install/default.xml /tmp 10.3. Edit your copied /tmp/default.xml
Ensure tag value remains "default".
Revise and sections as necessary.
To change the publisher from the default of pkg.opensolaris.org/release, simply change the value of tag under . From From
now using installadm add this new manifest to the service overriding the previous default.xml $ installadm add -m /tmp/default.xml -n osol-0906-x86
Installing a new client from this service will now reference the new default.xml manifest. 11. Troubleshooting
The following is a list of issues that may arise and how one might resolve them. Auto Install DNS Failure
If client auto install is failing with the following install_log excerpt : pkg image-create: The URI 'http://pkg.opensolaris.org' does not appear to point to a valid pkg server. Please check the server's address and client's network configuration. Additional details: Unable to contact valid package server Encountered the following error(s): Unable to contact any configured publishers. This is likely a network configuration problem. Unable to initialize the pkg image area at /a ... Automated Installation failed in Transfer module Transferring the files from the source failed. Please see previous messages for more details
From within the Vbox Client VM try the following tests : Is the repository pingable :
$ ping pkg.opensolaris.org
If you get back: 'ping: unknown host pkg.opensolaris.org' the error may be DNS related.
If you get back: 'no answer from pkg.opensolaris.org' the error may be connectivity related Is DNS Serer Reachable
Firstly get the server IP addresses via : $ grep ^nameserver /etc/resolve nameserver 192.168.0.1
Verify the server is reachable by pinging the ip addresses returned : $ ping 192.168.0.1 192.168.0.1 is alive
If you get don't get returned IP is alive, then there is a DNS issue, talk to your DNS/Network administrator. If /etc/resolv.conf is empty
If /etc/resolv.conf is empty, you can run : $ dhcpinfo DNSServ and see if you get any addresses back. If nothing is returned your DHCP is mis-configured. If address are return, try pinging them as stated above. DNS Server is alive
If the DNS server was alive, you can see if you are getting the right IP address for pkg.opensolaris.org by running : $ getent hosts pkg.opensolaris.org
If the IP address differs from a machine able to go to pkg.opensolaris.org, then you should contact your DNS/network administrator.
If getent is not returning anything, there is a routing issue between your Vbox network and the host network on which VirtualBox is running.
Check the value of the BootSrvA DHCP Macro property for your install service : $ dhcpinfo BootSrvA 10.0.2.15
This should be the IP address of network adaptor 1 on your AI server VM. If not go back to your server, and set this value correctly and refresh the dhcp-server SMF service, and try rebooting the install AI client VM.
Another more extreme method is to re-initialize DHCP and re-install the install services :
Firstly delete the install service : $ installadm delete-service osol-0906-x86 Boot archive /tftpboot/I86PC.OpenSolaris-1 for services is not a mountpoint. Boot archive (/tftpboot/I86PC.Opensolaris-1) for service osol-0906-x86 nto in vfstab Unable to find path /tftpboot/I86PC.OpenSolaris-1 To delete DHCP macro, run the following command: /usr/sbin/dhtadm -D -m dhcp_macro_osol-0906-x86
Remove dhcp macro for this service : $ dhtadm -D -m dhcp_macro_osol-0906-x86
Now unconfgiure the DHCP server settings completly : $ dhcpconfig -U -x Unconfigure will stop the DHCP service and remove the DHCP configuration file. Are you SURE you want to unconfigure the DHCP service? (Y/N): y DHCP server shutdown. Deleted the server macro from dhcptab. Deleted table for network 192.168.2.0. Deleted the dhcptab. Deleted the DHCP configuration file.
Now recreate the install service and the dhcp starting from Step 4 above, and try booting into the AI client VM again.

Education has been of primary importance to du Ponts for a very long time. It lay at the heart of Pierre Samuel du Pont de Nemourss aspirations for his family and for the advancement of humankind. One of his first tasks upon reaching America in 1800 was to write a treatise on education at the request of his friend, Vice President Thomas Jefferson. In this work, entitled National Education in the United States of America,[1] du Pont de Nemours laid out a comprehensive plan for the development of public schools and for the establishment of a national university, which he envisioned as a "palace of science," to be located in the new capital of Washington, D.C.
As befitted the Enlightenment leader that he was, du Pont devised an educational program that stressed freedom of enquiry and of teaching methods. His proposed curriculum emphasized the mastery of languages, of mathematics, and of the sciences "that the world may not be an unknown country."[2] He urged state and national governments to provide scholarships for poor but able students and to pay faculty members well. He believed that the United States could best develop its economy, encourage cultural enlightenment, and become a well-governed, democratic country if it attracted the worlds finest scholars to come to America to teach its young people.
Du Pont de Nemourss belief in the centrality of education to human happiness and to progress constituted his greatest blessing to his descendants. His heritage was deeply imbedded in the values, goals, and commitments of subsequent generations of du Ponts. One need think only of du Pont de Nemourss namesake, his great-great-grandson Pierre S. du Pont, whose tireless and generous efforts transformed the State of Delawares shamefully backward public-school system during the second and third decades of the twentieth century. It is also noteworthy that the great company that du Pont de Nemourss younger son, Eleuthère Irenéé, created has been sustained to this day through its commitment to scientific research. Many of Americas great families have created or supported institutions of higher education. This also has been true for the du Ponts, who have been generous benefactors to the universities and colleges that they attended. The institution that has been most transformed by du Pont philanthropy and has been the focus of attention from the greatest number of family members is the University of Delaware.
This book provides a brief account of the relationship that has developed over many years between the du Pont family and the University of Delaware. It is not an inclusive narrative. So many du Ponts have made gifts to the University over such a long period of time that to mention them all would require a lengthy catalog. The emphasis here will be on the most significant contributions, those that have had the greatest impact on shaping the evolution of the institution. Today, the University of Delaware is a medium-sized university with an undergraduate population of 15,000 students, a graduate population of 3,000, and a highly selective full-time faculty of nearly 1,000. Although service to Delawareans is its first duty, the University also draws a large number of students from the mid-Atlantic region, as well as from the other states and from countries around the world. In addition to meeting the needs of students on the main campus in Newark, the University offers degree programs and continuing education courses in various locations around the state and maintains a major presence in Lewes, Delaware, on the Hugh R. Sharp, Jr., Campus, home of the College of Marine Studies. By most standards, the University of Delaware is a big operation. Its 420 buildings occupy over 2,600 acres of land. Its library system includes well over 2,000,000 volumes. It provides instruction in 120 major fields. But, these statistics hardly begin to describe the complexity of a modern university with its research centers, cultural programming, Honors Program, and computerized information networking. Nor can statistics do justice to the pride that students, alumni, staff, and friends take in the beauty of the campus, especially the central Mall with its dignified Georgian buildings and overarching elms. The University, a land-grant, sea-grant, and urban-grant institution, is the premier public university in Delaware. Though it serves public purposes and is supported in part by the State of Delaware, it is governed by a largely private Board of Trustees. The Universitys private-public status is a significant factor in its ability to provide programs of excellence at relatively low tuition cost. This felicitous combination accounts for the Universitys rank among the top twenty-five public institutions in the nation and as a "best buy" for aspiring but economy-minded students and their families.

I'm often asked about this 'exercise in mindfulness' that I practice daily. What is it about? How did it begin? When and where? And more importantly- how do I continue to do what I do day-after-day?
It began with an unlikely pair of domesticated Pekin Ducks that found themselves living in the wild on a small pond not too far from where I live. It was the summer of 2004. Although photography had always been an interest and a passion, it was rekindled when these white ducks miraculously appeared and crossed my path. They quickly became my morning muse, my focus, my reason for once again picking up my camera and looking at the world through its lens. As the greens of summer turned into the rich warm hues of autumn and as those faded into winter whites, I continued to photograph this pair until their disappearance and ultimate sad demise.
Funny how 'endings' can so often be 'beginnings' in disguise. Their disappearance forced me to look at the world around me; to search the everyday ordinary and find the extraordinary in each and every new day. Without them as my guide and muse I had a chance to start once again from the beginning; to seize the opportunity to see the world in a whole new way.
As an avid yoga practitioner, I study the power of presence, the strength of acceptance, and the grace of embracing what 'is'. This 'practice' of photographing the world as I see it has become no different than that of stepping on my mat, feeling the ground solidly beneath my feet, opening my heart and my eyes to the world as it unfolds around me. It is a union of body and mind and the click of the shutter's lens. Day after day, week after week and month after month after that, no matter what the forecasted weather I get up before the sun rise and walk my morning walk. With my camera over my shoulder and in my hand, I 'practice'recording the world as I see it. I never know in advance what it was I might find. The perfect scene, the perfect moment, the perfect light are allinconsequential and often elusive. There is always something new to see and be seen; something to be captured from a different point-of-view and in a whole new way. The morning light, the weather, the mood, the seasons are ever changing and evolving along with my vision.
Looking thru my lens I often find myself totally immersed in the moment and what it has to offer. My 'practice' has become a daily reminder that there is hidden magic in the details if we actually stop and breathe and look and listen.
Am curious to hear how you do what you do? What inspires and motivates? What gets you up in the morning??? What is your muse? And how do you keep that passion going?

This blueberry syrup if a great choice for diabetics and others who need to limit their intake of sugar. With "no sugar added," it allows a great pancake and waffle topping. The taste is excellent. Some added crushed blueberries might even make it better! Thanks for this product for those of us who need to monitor our intake of sugar.
Posted by Michele A. Taylor on 14th Jan 2012
I watch my sugar and carbs, But I love pancakes. Finding a low carb pancake was very difficult. Then I happened upon The Blueberry store's Sugar-Free Syrup and I was very excited. It is very good and I don't miss the regular syrup with all it's sugar at all. I can't wait to have blueberry (Blueberries, from The Blueberry Store) pancakes on my regular pancake evening, just so I can have the blueberry syrup that goes with them. You should give it a try!!

Hardcover: 352 pages
Publisher: Harcourt Children's Books (September 13, 2010)
Received From: Netgalley in exchange for an honest review
4 Butterflies
Product Description:
Fifteen-year-old Jason has fallen upon bad times—his mother has died and his father has succumbed to mental illness. As he tries to hold his crazy father and their crumbling home together, Jason relies on a host of imaginary friends for guidance as he stumbles along trying not to draw attention to his father's deteriorating condition.
Both heartbreaking and funny, CRAZY lives up to the intense and compelling characters Han Nolan is praised for. As Jason himself teeters on the edge of insanity, Nolan uncovers the clever coping system he develops for himself and throws him a lifeline in the guise of friendship.
My Thoughts:
Crazy is just what the titles leads you to believe it will be, absolutely crazy! Jason's mother dies, and he is left to care for his mentally ill father all on this own. He's keeping it to himself because he refuses to let his father be locked up. To keep it a secret, Jason's learned not to have any friends, so to keep himself company, he's invited an amusing cast of characters in his own head. There is "Fat Bald Guy With Mustache" who is funny and series, "Aunt Bea" (from Andy Griffith) who is the sweet grandmotherly type of influence, "Sexy Lady" who spends most of the book reassuring Jason how hot he is, and Crazy Glue who is the teenager who tends to push Jason to do things he doesn't want to.
This book was a lot of fun, and although it had the heavy topic of a father with a mental disorder, and a teen who ends up in foster care, it still moved along at a quick pace and never really felt to heavy or emotionally draining. The words really flowed through this story and I would find myself sitting down to read for just a few minutes and having to make myself put it down after a full hour has past.
Jason is a great lead character, strong, independent, and yet still has to learn that sometimes you can't take care of everything all on your own. The "group" of real kids that Jason meets in therapy were a great cast and so much fun. They were a ragtag crew that I would have liked to hang out with when I was in school.
It was very easy to relate with one or all of the characters in this book. Even if you didn't/don't have to deal with the same issues they do, the point is, we all have something going on in our lives that we sometimes need help getting through. Overall, this was a fast and very enjoyable read and I will be looking for more books by Han Nolan in the future.
Where to find Han Nolan?

We loved this trolley tour, it was fun, informative, and the guide was great. Not only did we see different areas of Key West, but learned some of the history, too. Of course, much of it is devoted to ghosts so if you don't like that sort of thing you won't care of this particular tour. Everyone on our tour really seemed to enjoy it. After this tour we still had time to visit (independently) the Audubon House, the Aquarium, and the Shipwreck Museum. All of those things are located near each other so it's easy to get to all of them in a short amount of time (about an hour or less for each). And, we liked all three of those places very much. In fact, of the three ports we were at, Key West was easily our favorite and we would definitely go there again.

While most gravestones only bear the name of the person buried beneath the marker, at least one large stone in Marietta's Mound Cemetery also tells who's not entombed there.
"Capt. Nathaniel Saltonstall, a Revolutionary War naval officer, wanted people to know he wasn't the Commodore Saltonstall who was considered a traitor during that war, so it was engraved on his tombstone," said Ernie Thode, manager of Local History and Genealogy at the Washington County Public Library in Marietta.
The inscription on the stone reads:
Article Photos
"In memory of Capt. Nathaniel Saltanstall (also spelled Saltonstall). Born in New London, Conn. A.D. 1727, Died A.D. 1807. Was 1st commandant, FortTrumble (Trumbull). During the Revolution he commanded the Warren Frigate and ship Putnam, but was not Commodore of the fleet burned at Penobscott(Penobscot)."
The reference is to a failed June 1779 American naval excursion against a small British fleet in Penobscot Bay, Maine, for which Commodore Dudley Saltonstallof Connecticut was blamed.
Dudley Saltonstall was later court-martialed and dismissed from military service for essentially abandoning the mission.
He is believed to have died somewhere in the West Indies.
"(Dudley) Saltonstall apparently abandoned a couple of American vessels in the bay, burned them and then took off," said Bill Reynolds, local historian with the Campus Martius and Ohio River museums.
"That's why Capt. Nathaniel Saltonstall didn't want to be, in any way, referred to in relation to Commodore Saltonstall," he said. "I would imagine at the time he often had to explain the difference. You just didn't give up your ship like that."
Reynolds said the extensive writing on Capt. Saltonstall's gravestone explains the issue.
But Thode noted that the current stone slab covering Capt. Saltonstall's final resting place in Mound Cemetery wasn't placed there until 1882, long after the naval officer's death, by a Dr. Hempstead of Hanging Rock, Ohio.
"Saltonstall was the maternal grandfather of Hempstead," Thode said, adding that Hempstead was apparently also concerned confusion over the names would taint the family's reputation.
Born in New London County, Conn., Nathaniel Saltonstall was a grandson of Connecticut Gov. Gurdon Saltonstall. In 1775 he became captain of an artillery company at New London and later commanded Fort Trumbull near that location.
Later Capt. Saltonstall became a naval officer where he commanded the ships Putnam and Warren. The Putnam was reportedly blown up during thePenobscot expedition where Capt. Nathaniel Saltonstall was serving under Commodore Dudley Saltonstall.
Capt. Saltonstall, his officers and crew escaped the destroyed vessel.
In later life Capt. Nathaniel Saltonstall came to Marietta, where he died at age 80. His wife, Lucretia Lattimore, who was born in 1737 and died in 1824, is also buried in Mound Cemetery, along with their two children, Polly and John.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2016
The ancient name of Chimene finds its origins with the ancient Anglo-Saxon culture of Britain. It comes from a name for a person who lived near or worked at a furnace deriving its origin from the Old French word cheminée.
The surname Chimene was first found in Yorkshire, where they held a family seat from the Middle Ages.
Sound was what guided spelling in the essentially pre-literate Middle Ages, so one person's name was often recorded under several variations during a single lifetime. Also, before the advent of the printing press and the first dictionaries, the English language was not standardized. Therefore, spelling variations were common, even among the names of the most literate people. Known variations of the Chimene family name include Chimney, Chimyne, Chymene, Chymney, Chimnay and others.
This web page shows only a small excerpt of our Chimene research. Another 99 words (7 lines of text) covering the years 1275, 1327, 1377, 1453 and 1457 are included under the topic Early Chimene History in all our PDF Extended History products and printed products wherever possible.
More information is included under the topic Early Chimene Notables in all our PDF Extended History products and printed products wherever possible.
For political, religious, and economic reasons, thousands of English families boarded ships for Ireland, the Canadas, the America colonies, and many of smaller tropical colonies in the hope of finding better lives abroad. Although the passage on the cramped, dank ships caused many to arrive in the New World diseased and starving, those families that survived the trip often went on to make valuable contributions to those new societies to which they arrived. Early immigrants bearing the Chimene surname or a spelling variation of the name include : Amelia Chymny, who settled in Maryland; and Michael Chymny, who arrived in Maryland in 1910.
Other References
The Chimene Family Crest was acquired from the Houseofnames.com archives. The Chimene Family Crest was drawn according to heraldic standards based on published blazons. We generally include the oldest published family crest once associated with each surname.

6 Great Uses for Twitter As a Marketing Tool
by Editorial Staff -
Image copyright © LetsTalkSEO
Interested in contributing or writing for us?
With all the much hyped Twitter media in town now, no one can ever miss it. Unlike Facebook, which is largely driven by the upsurge, Twitter is being driven directly from the top. Be it Ashton, Oprah, Britney or Hugh Jackman, celebrity endorsement is pushing Twitter hype beyond your thoughts. With all the high class attention to this media, it is unavoidable for marketers to target this segment! And of late it has become a much profitable resource.
Let's see some overview of the marketing applications of Twitter. Depending on each one's perspective of business, the way in which Twitter is being used as a marketing tool differs. Here is a list of ways in which Twitter is being used as marketing channel.
1. Customer Support
Customer support is considered as the best use of Twitter as marketing tool. Customers talk positively and negatively about brands on Twitter. If negative comments or complaints are turned into positive outcomes, they will in turn be shared by the happy customers with many followers and help the brands obtain positive word of mouth. Comcast, Intuit & Telstra are some of the brands that benefited from using Twitter for their customer support.
2. Customer Research
Though reaching the customers directly through Twitter may seem to be a difficult task for many companies but it doesn't mean that they can't derive the real benefit of Twitter as a marketing tool. Definitely they can use the Twitters search to find out what their customers are saying about their brands and get instant feedback for free.
3. Informing
Twitter can be a major resource for providing real time information and instant updates. This was well illustrated in the disaster of Mumbai where different people interconnect and receive useful updates quickly. Twitter is commonly used in the sports arena too, where teams like Chicago bulls give their team scores live and updates online in real time. Even companies like TDS used Twitter as an informing tool to update its customers about service outages. However, it is important to note that using Twitter to inform works best only if the information is valuable.
4. Promoting
Twitter has become a popular base for promotions, much like email marketing many companies have used to send offers to its subscribers and have gained a lot of exposure and sales from it. Dell claims it has obtained $1million revenue from Twitter promotions alone. If customers like or love your products or services, they will definitely follow you on Twitter.
5. Building Community Discussion
Community discussions are major contribution for marketing and spreading news word of the mouth via Twitter are helping lots of organizations to improve their business. Marketers have been using hash tags to aggregate community discussions and hash tags have become more popular than ever on Twitter as more brands utilize them.
6. Branding
Many organizations are using twitter to reiterate their brands to existing customers or to a new generation of users. Certain Twitter accounts like Popeye's Chicken and Dunkin' Donuts may not seem to have a clear objective but a deeper research will give you an insight on how these companies are using Twitter to target their most lucrative audience – the Gen Y.
The uses of Twitter don't end here and if you have other suggestions, remember to blog about them and share with everyone.

I am firmly convinced that great citizenship is the responsibility of every Christian regardless of the country they belong. Biblical citizenship would be universal and not specific to a country because we view it as more righteous than another.
America has an unique and wonderful history. I am proud to be an American and happy to serve God here. However, I pray that Christians everywhere rejoice in the place of their birth and follow Christ to see their nation honor Him.

Carrie is superfluous but fun. Brian De Palma's film of Stephen King's telekinesis chiller said and did it all 37 years ago: blood, prom night and Sissy Spacek duelling to the death with crazy religious mum Piper Laurie. Chloë Grace Moretz and Julianne Moore are good without erasing memories of predecessors. (Weirdly they each look like their opposite forebears. Moretz replicates Laurie's pixie-featured Medusa gaze while Moore does the Spacek flayed-skull look.) More sensitivity of characterisation is offered in this version, directed by Kimberly Boys Don't Cry Peirce. But sensitivity in a horror film, we know, is just the lamb being readied for the designer slaughter.

Shawnee faced Class 5A's No. 1 Carl Albert on neutral ground Friday, and suffered a 6-1 setback at Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark.
The game was tied at 1 after the first inning, and the Titans went on to add a single run in the second and two runs each in the tops of the third and fourth frames.
The 16th-ranked Wolves were held to just two hits — a run-scoring triple by Casey Bowlan and a single by Kyler Rogers.
Bowlan started on the mound and absorbed the loss. He gave up four runs (only one earned) while striking out two batters and walking one.
Rogers came on in the fourth and gave up two unearned runs on one hit. Josh Rolette closed, giving up one hit and one walk while fanning one batter.
"We should have played better defense; that's the bottom line," said SHS coach Todd Boyer. "Our pitchers threw well enough to win."
The Wolves committed four errors, while the Titans played errorless.
Shawnee entered Friday's game after an 11-1 win over Western Heights Tuesday.
Now 6-5, the Wolves will host Bethel at 5 p.m. Monday.

World football transfer record
|It has been suggested that List of most expensive association football transfers be merged into this article. (Discuss) Proposed since December 2015.
The transfer of Willie Groves from West Bromwich Albion to Aston Villa in 1893 occurred just eight years after the introduction of professionalism by The FA in 1885.[1] The record is currently held by Paul Pogba who, in 2016, rejoined English club Manchester United for £89 million from Italian club Juventus.
Transfer record progression[edit]
The first player to ever be transferred for a fee of over £100 was Scottish striker Willie Groves when he made the switch from West Bromwich Albion to Aston Villa in 1893,[2] eight years after the legalisation of professionalism in the sport. It took just twelve years for the figure to become £1000, when Sunderland striker Alf Common moved to Middlesbrough.[3][4]
It wasn't until 1928 that the first five-figure transfer took place. David Jack of Bolton Wanderers was the subject of interest from Arsenal, and in order to negotiate the fee down, Arsenal manager Herbert Chapman got the Bolton representatives drunk.[5][6] Subsequently, David Jack was transferred for a world record fee when Arsenal paid £10,890 to Bolton for his services, after Bolton had asked for £13,000, which was double the previous record made when Sunderland signed Burnley's Bob Kelly a fee of for £6,500.[4]
The first player from outside Great Britain to break the record was Bernabé Ferreyra, a player known as La Fiera for his powerful shot. His 1932 transfer from Tigre to River Plate cost £23k,[6] and the record would last for 17 years (the longest the record has lasted) until it was broken by Manchester United's sale of Johnny Morris to Derby County for £24k in March 1949. The record was broken seven further times between 1949 and 1961, when Luis Suárez Miramontes was sold by FC Barcelona to Inter Milan for £152k, becoming the first ever player sold for more than £100k.[4]
In 1968, Pietro Anastasi became the first £500k player when Juventus purchased him from Varese,[6] which was followed seven years later with Giuseppe Savoldi becoming the first million pound player when he transferred from Bologna to Napoli.[4][6]
The first player to twice be transferred for world record fees is Diego Maradona.[4][6] His transfers from Boca Juniors to Barcelona for £3m, and then to Napoli for £5m, both broke the record in 1982 and 1984 respectively. The second became Ronaldo with his record-breaking move from PSV Eindhoven to Barcelona in 1996 for £13.2m, although Alan Shearer's transfer to Newcastle broke the record the same summer. A year later Inter Milan paid £19.5m for Ronaldo and again he became the player with the highest transfer fee.
In the space of 61 days in 1992,[6] three transfers broke the record,[4] all by Italian clubs: Jean-Pierre Papin transferred from Marseille to A.C. Milan, becoming the first ever £10m player.[6] Almost immediately, rivals Juventus topped that with the signing of Gianluca Vialli for a fee of £12m from Sampdoria. Milan then completed the signing of Gianluigi Lentini for a fee of £13m which stood as the record for three years.
The 1996 transfer of Alan Shearer from Blackburn Rovers to Newcastle United, for a fee of £15m,[7] kickstarted a year-by-year succession of record breaking transfers: Ronaldo moved the following year to Inter Milan from FC Barcelona for a fee of £17m,[8] which was followed in 1998 by the shock transfer of his fellow countryman Denílson from São Paulo to Real Betis for a fee of approximately £21m.[4][6][9]
In 1999 and 2000, Italian clubs returned to their record-breaking ways, with Christian Vieri transferring from Lazio to Inter Milan for £28m,[10] while Hernán Crespo's transfer from Parma to Lazio ensured he became the first player to cost more than £30m.[4][11] The transfer prompted the BBC to ask "has the world gone mad"?[12]
It took two weeks for the record to be broken when Luís Figo made a controversial £37m move from Barcelona to rivals Real Madrid.[4][13] Real Madrid then held the record until 2016, when Manchester United signed Paul Pogba for £89m. The players that previously broke the record were Zinedine Zidane in 2001 when signed for £46m from Juventus,[4] Cristiano Ronaldo, who signed for £80m from Manchester United in 2009,[4] and Gareth Bale in 2013, who became the first player to cost €100m when he transferred from Tottenham Hotspur.
Comparison of fees in different nations is complicated by varying exchange rates. This table uses British Pound Sterling for older and comparison fees and Euro for newer transfers as the unit of currency.

- Progression of British football transfer fee record
A. a The Juventus FC web site reported the total fee was exactly 150 billion lira. The Juventus FC financial statement for 2002 describes this as approximately €75m. Using the official base exchange rate for lira to pounds for that time (9 July 2001), this is exactly £46,589,576.90[36] in pounds sterling, reported in Britain variously between £46m and £47m at the time.
B. b For comparisons, this list uses a valuation of the fee converted to British pounds at the time of the transfer. Zidane's fee in 2001 was 150 billion lira, then equivalent to €77.5m. This appears to be 30% larger than Figo's €60m fee. That comparison in Euros is coincidentally valid because the British pound and the Euro didn't mutually vary much in the intervening year. Kaká's transfer fee of €65m was eight years later in 2009. Due to the valuation method used in this list, Zidane's fee in "2001-Euros" cannot be compared numerically with Kaká's fee in "2009-Euros". In this context, they are different units of currency, and must be converted to the valuation currency first. This paradox is inherent to multiple currency comparisons across time, regardless of the currency and conversion time-frame are chosen as the standard for valuation.
C. c Conversion by British journalists; the actual offer was made and concluded at €94m.
D. d The Gareth Bale transfer was for exactly €100m.[37] This was converted from euros to pounds by the British media, where it was widely reported as £85.3m. [38]

KARACHI, Pakistan (AP) — Just days into her job running a police station in Pakistan's largest city, Syeda Ghazala had to put her training to the test: she opened fire with her .22-caliber pistol at a man who shot at police when they tried to pull him over during a routine traffic stop.
Running a station is a high-profile job in the Pakistani police, one that requires the officer to constantly interact with the public and fellow officers.
Senior police officer Abdul Khaliq Sheikh, said he and others in the top brass hope Ghazala's appointment leads to more women joining the force.

Step 1:
1 Avocado mashed really well
3 Tbsp White Onion - very finely chopped
1 tsp - maybe a bit more Apple Cider Vinegar (I go heavy on the vinegar because I love it)
1/2 to 1 Tsp Mustard
Sea Salt to Taste - maybe a couple good dashes.
Mix Really well - taste it just to tease yourself. I could've easily just eaten the Avocado mixture alone --- it was SO good.
Step 2:
One Large Cucumber.
Peel your Large Cucumber
Slice Cucumber in half lengthwise, remove the Cucumber seeds with a spoon or mellon baller.
Set the Seeds aside for a salad --- don't throw them away, they're still perfectly yummy!
Cut the Cucumber boats into One inch sections.
Spoon the Avocado Mixture onto the Cucumber rounds, and top with Paprika and a touch of Nutritional Yeast.

Night Family Quotes
How we cite our quotes: Citations follow this format: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #16
I tightened my grip on my father's hand. The old, familiar fear: not to lose him.
I could have screamed in anger. To have lived and endured so much; was I going to let my father die now? Now that we would be able to take a good hot shower and lie down?
This discussion continued for some time. I knew that I was no longer arguing with him but with Death itself, with Death that he had already chosen. (8.3-23)
At the new camp, Eliezer still tries to cling to his father. They have been through so much; losing his father is still his greatest fear. When his father starts to die, he struggles to keep his father alive because of his desire not to lose the last remaining member of his family and the only thing that preserves his own will to live.
Quote #17
I went to look for him.
Yet at the same time a thought crept into my mind: If only I didn't find him! If only I were relieved of this responsibility, I could use all my strength to fight for my own survival, to take care only of myself … Instantly, I felt ashamed of myself forever. (8.26-8.27)
In the world of the concentration camps, Eliezer struggles to maintain his humanity; Eliezer realizes that he sees his father as a burden that might get in the way of his own personal survival but attempts to banish these inhumane thoughts and feels genuine guilt.
Quote #18
"Listen to me, kid. Don't forget that you are in a concentration camp. In this place, it is every man for himself, and you cannot think of others. Not even your father. In this place, there is no such thing as father, brother, friend. Each of us lives and dies alone. Let me give you good advice: stop giving your ration of bread and soup to your old father. You cannot help him anymore. And you are hurting yourself. In fact, you should be getting his rations …"
I listened to him without interrupting. He was right, I thought deep down, not daring to admit it to myself. Too late to save your old father … You could have two rations of bread, two rations of soup …
It was only a fraction of a second, but it left me feeling guilty. I ran to get some soup and brought it to my father. (8.86-88)
A fellow prisoner points out that in the concentration camp, it's every man for himself. Selfishness, not altruism, keeps people alive in concentration camps. Eliezer suffers an internal battle of selfishness vs. love for his father, and despite the harsh circumstances, Eliezer's better side wins out.

When Marissa Mayer first became CEO of Yahoo, she got flak for telling Yahoo employees that they couldn't work from home. She wanted Yahoo workers in the office, seeing each other, and collaborating to help the tech dinosaur get its groove back. Those who weren't up for visiting the office on a regular basis got the boot.

Morning MoneyBeat Asia: Market Rhythms, Moon Phases, and Caterpillar
Market Snap: At the New York close: S&P 500 down 0.5% at 1746.38. DJIA down 0.4% at 15413.33. Nasdaq Comp down 0.6% at 3907.07. Treasury yields mixed; 10-year at 2.482%. Nymex crude oil down 1.5% at $96.86. Gold down 0.6% at $1,333.90/ounce.
How We Got Here: U.S. stocks eased on Wednesday, for the first time since Congress got its act together (such as it is) and agreed to that budget deal last week. Concerns about the economic picture drove the yield on the U.S. 10-year Treasury note under 2.50%.
Stock are in a weird rhythm right now. The big, scary macro threat is over, and the big, all-important data point is out – on a Tuesday no less. Earnings reports are coming thick and heavy. Plus, we had a full moon late last week, if you buy into the whole phases of the moon thing.
A little closer to the ground, Caterpillar's third-quarter earnings report was a mess, with profit down 44% and a cut to the company's outlook. The big equipment maker is viewed as a global bellwether, so its successes or travails are watched very closely. What's happening can't be good: not only were earnings down this past quarter, they have reported declining profits in each of the past four quarters.
Then again, the news of fresh credit stress in China had markets in a bad mood before traders even rang the opening bell in New York.
That could be signaling a whole different kind of phase.
Coming Up: China will be the focal point early in Asia Thursday as HSBC releases its "flash" reading on Chinese manufacturing activity in September. The report will be the first major piece of China data to hit the wires since an official reading last week showed the country's economic growth perked up in the third quarter.
What You Missed Overnight
U.S. Stocks Finish Lower U.S. stocks declined Wednesday, as weakness in global stocks and mixed earnings from a pair of industrial companies prompted a pause in their recent rally.
Berlin Says U.S. May Be Spying on Merkel's Phone Germany said it believed that U.S. intelligence agencies may be spying on Chancellor Angela Merkel's cellphone, an intrusion that it said would constitute a "grave breach of trust" between the longtime allies.
Caterpillar Vows to Put Costs on 'Lockdown' After yet another weak quarter, the big question is whether the world's biggest maker of construction and mining equipment can cut costs fast enough.
Spain Exits From Two-Year Recession Spain's central bank Wednesday said a two-year recession in the euro zone's fourth-largest economy ended in the third quarter, when Spain posted 0.1% growth from the previous quarter.
From The Wall Street Journal Asia
Glaxo's Chinese Sales Plummet GlaxoSmithKline pharmaceutical and vaccine sales in China fell 61% in the third quarter, as a high-profile bribery investigation into the company hurt its ability to sell drugs.
China Moves to Help Local Governments Roll Over Debt China took a significant step Wednesday to deal with an explosion of borrowing among local governments by allowing more of them to issue short-term debt to help pay off maturing bonds and loans, according to a person with direct knowledge of the matter.
Compensation Comes Slowly After Bangladesh Building Collapse Shahida Begum's 18-year-old daughter Shanta was one of the more than 1,100 people who died in the collapse of the Rana Plaza garment factory six months ago. She received 20,000 taka ($250) from the Bangladeshi government.
Hollywood Loses Market Share in China Hollywood is losing ground in China, at a time when box-office sales there are surging and foreign filmmakers are eager for a bigger share of the world's fastest-growing film market.

Investors Buying into Aspirational Needs of Asian Consumers Fund managers are buying shares of companies that sell everything from mountain bikes to energy drinks in Asia's emerging markets.
The Moneyball of Economics Economics, just as baseball, is steeped in tradition. Economics, to hear Andrew Zatlin tell it, is just as buried in its own past, and missing the great changes taking place in the world.
Carl Icahn's Valuable Netflix Lesson: Don't Listen to Carl Icahn Carl Icahn's investment in Netflix has been wildly profitable, despite the fact that the reason he bought the stock in the first place – to force a sale – turned out to be the wrong idea.
