Release Date:
June 3, 2008
This John Mayall set, Live at the Marquee 1969 is a reissue of the 1999 disc of the same music. @Eagle Rock, in its genius, put this out with a companion double-disc volume The Masters as a way of celebrating the 1969 documentary film, The Turning Point. The film is named for the album of the same name and chronicles the change Mayall's Bluesbreakers underwent after making Blues from Laurel Canyon with future Rolling Stones' guitarist Mick Taylor. Mayall apparently heard the volume wars in bands like Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, and Cream and figured another aesthetic was needed for the subtleties of the kind of blues he wanted to write and play. He fired everybody but bassist Steve Thompson. He then hired acoustic guitarist Jon Mark, and reed and woodwind master Johnny Almond. Mayall plays the electric guitars by himself and there is no drummer whatsoever. The band appears here in a ramp up to the album that would become The Turning Point a couple of months later. These even feel like live rehearsals. While it's not pristinely recorded by any means, it is nonetheless well worth hearing and fares far better than some of the dodgy crap that passes for "recordings of historical importance." There are seven cuts here that total just under an hour; all of the tunes are originals. Interestingly, "Room to Move," an obvious performance choice it would seem since it became the hit single from The Turning Point, isn't here. It doesn't matter. From "Can't Sleep This Night,""So Hard to Share,""I'm Gonna Fight for You JB," and the two elongated takes of "California." are all stunners. This acoustic and drummer-less quartet was quite an experiment at the time -- though the brilliant Siegel-Schwall Band had previously tried it in Chicago to less acclaim -- and it led eventually to Mayall's classic LP Jazz Blues Fusion with trumpeter Blue Mitchell. One theory that hasn't been put forth in either the critical literature surrounding this band or by Mayall himself was the influence of Laurel Canyon itself in the late '60s. It was so profound that Mayall wanted to make it his permanent home. With all of the post-hippie folk music and singersongwriters living there -- Joni Mitchell, Mama Cass Elliot, David Crosby, Jackson Browne, Neil Young, Linda Ronstadt, Gram Parsons, Stephen Stills, Van Dyke Parks, et. al -- it would seem that this shift to the quieter side of the blues was influenced at least in part by that initial journey to record Blues from Laurel Canyon the year before. That said, Live at the Marquee is a fascinating set of classic Mayall from a very transitional period in his sound, and it stands alone without the film.

It started simply enough, but then an example of neighbors helping neighbors took off. A Juneau "Pay-It Forward" group has grown to more than 700 members and now they are inspiring other cities-- both in Alaska and the Lower 48.
Sisters Rinny Beth and Suzanne Tweedy started the Facebook group and have been amazed at the outpouring of support. People post on the group's page things they have to offer to others, or things they are in need of; that's all it takes for the group members to rush to action.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

Gran Canaria Desktop Summit Review: Video of Plasma Netbook UI and Qt KDE Lab in South America
The KDE team are to work closer with Kwin developers to reinforce the integration of the KDE window manager into the project. The announcement was made at the end of the joint Gnome and KDE Gran Canaria Desktop Summit that came to a close July 11.
After a recent initial presentation, the summit saw the unveiling of a first running version. The Alpha should appear towards the end of 2009 with a stable version planned for early 2010. A screencast video showing the future KDE netbook interface in detail is available on YouTube and its clear KDE is headed for the web and the integration of more online services. In the last days of the Canary event, the Plasma team conjured a KRunner plugin out of its sleeve that brings Wikipedia to the desktop- a feature that, thanks to the modular design of Plasma, will also run on normal desktops.
Newly elected President Cornelius Schumacher, last year's treasurer, told of KDEs bright blossoming financial situation with the result that new projects are being created and existing ones further developed. The desktop is constantly increasing its profile in the economy, sponsoring 18 developer conferences, the so-called Developer Sprints, last year alone. Something that the French University of Toulouse has been doing for the past three years.
The flirt between KDE and Gitorious also has a happy end. KDE today announced a move to future cooperation with git and Gitorius, paving the way for more developer contribution.

Literary Rejections on Display
A vast public collection of real-life rejection
Tuesday, June 7, 2016
A #Retrospective on #Blogging, Or Why All These #Literary #Rejections Are Important
the collection of linked stories coming out in the fall? I barely even dare to mention the unpublished book of essays no one wants, the nonfiction travel book at a silent retreat and spiritual journey that I can't get any traction on, and the book about being disinherited that is kicking my ass: I'm on version 5 and I STILL don't like it (That's right: version five; tone is everything in this book, and I'm getting closer, I think.) So, yeah, I write plenty. I happen to be fast at it, even though the publishing has come slowly. And also, here's something I learned recently, all those years of so-called "wasted blogging hours" (that someone was always pointing out to shame me) WERE contributing absolutely to the ultimate success of my so-called literary career. I mean, people LOVE a literary genius (if you happen to be one, which I am not) but they don't come looking for you, and they surely don't let you sit around and be brilliant without dusting off the old dog-and-pony show and taking it on the road virtually and IRL. So, in essence, though maybe the whole enterprise is pretty insignificant in the world of the written word, I don't regret a single minute I spent on this blog. Especially because--this is important--it is hard to find community and comfort and consolation as a writer, or just a regular person, in this culture. And I found that here with all the patchy, scratchy, and sometimes illustrious mice who came around to complain or boast or start a fire. I really needed you guys on my darkest days, and on most of my light days, too. So, thanks, you all, for being part of LROD. Even the trolls who used to drive me crazy and don't come around any more. I miss the days when blogs were relevant, and maybe they still are. Surely, I still come around to write a word or two here, even if you can find literary rejections and iterations of this dumb idea all over the floor of the Internet. I guess, you could say my work here is done in the initial sense of pulling publishing out of the closet and into the light a bit. Or whatever the hell this is. That's all for now. Keep writing and plugging away and sending your work out and believing in yourself (even when you don't...and especially then) because before long you will look back and see that it amounted to something very important: your life.

A Little #Book #Trailer, #Anyone?
it really looks like here.
Someone told me no one does them anymore and no one watches them. Guess I'm always 10 minutes behind the literary fashion. Typical.

Hundreds of #Literary #Rejections Later, Yet All Is Not Lost #Pretend I'm Your Friend
"Publish a novel," they said. "Then someone might care about your collection."
"But these stories are special," I said. "They're linked!"
|"Who cares about rejection?"
Finally I published the novel in 2014. And, guess what, mice: they were right! As you can see above I now have advanced reading copies of the linked story collection, which my publisher calls "entwined."
The advanced reading copies arrived on Saturday to my front porch. I took the above picture as proof that there can be a pay-off to hanging in there and being persistent. Like a cockroach, a literary cockroach.
There are worse things. Never say die, right?

A Little Advanced Praise? #PretendI'mYourFriend @elizmccracken
so accused just this morning, but here I am again. Call me soft, but this blurb from my all-time favorite story writer, made me cry big cartoony tear drops:
"There are, I suppose, stories full of brilliance, hilarity, and longing—the stories in MB Caschetta's terrific Pretend You're My Friend are full of all these things—but I can't remember when I've read a collection so full of life. Actual life: the bad jokes, the astounding velocity, the sweetness and darkness. You will love the characters here the way you love your own family: complicatedly, with tenderness, understanding, and consternation. The only difference may be how willing—and eager—you are to introduce them to friends. Good heavens, this book is good." --Elizabeth McCrackenElizabeth McCracken!!! Dang, Mice. That doesn't happen every lifetime now, does it?

Pay-To-Enter #Literary #Book #Prizes: What's Your Beef, Bro?
The USA Best Book Awards are mainly for independent books, though I noticed some of the winners this year were from mainstream publishing houses, which is to say, maybe everyone with any kind of cash leftover in the promotional budget enters into what some people like to call "vanity award" contests. It's not an inexpensive proposal: $199.00 to enter a book in a specific category. Still, someone, or some panel, reads the books and picks a winner, so it's not entirely vanity. ( I mean, if I paid and automatically became a winner, or if I picked my book as a winner, that would be vanity.) So, criticize all you want. I'm never going to win a National Book Award. So I am delighted that Miracle Girls won a USA Best Book Award. And I'm especially happy that it won in the Literary Fiction category. That just makes me happy. What can I say?

Widow Chantel Blunk sues psychiatrist who treated Aurora shooter James Holmes
- From: AFP
- January 18, 2013
THE widow of a victim of the US theatre massacre is suing a psychiatrist for neglect, for failing to have the alleged shooter arrested despite him having "fantasised about killing a lot of people."
The lawsuit, also citing the University of Colorado, alleges that Dr Lynne Fenton advised campus police about her concern regarding James Holmes, after he told her about the fantasy in June last year.
They offered to apprehend him for psychiatric assessment, but she declined, and he went on to open fire on a Colorado movie theatre weeks later on July 20, killing 12 people and injuring at least 58.
Holmes, a neuroscience doctoral student in the process of leaving the college, told Dr Fenton "on June 11, 2012, that he fantasised about killing a lot of people," said the lawsuit.
Dr Fenton "knew that James Holmes was dangerous" and "had a duty to use reasonable care to protect the public at large from James Holmes," said the document, filed by Chantel Blunk, whose husband Jonathan died in the shooting.
"Defendant Fenton was presented with the opportunity to use such reasonable care when the Colorado University Police offered to apprehend James Holmes on a psychiatric hold," it said.
But it alleged that Dr Fenton "rejected the idea" and therefore "breached her duty to use reasonable care".
Holmes, now 25, was ordered last week to stand trial over the massacre, one of the worst ever mass shootings in modern US history, which revived America's perennial debate over gun control.
In a statement responding to the lawsuit, filed on Monday, the University of Colorado Denver said it "has great sympathy for the victims of the Aurora theatre shooting and their families.
"But in our initial review of this case, the University believes this lawsuit is not well-founded legally or factually," it added.
Yesterday, President Barack Obama called for the revival of an assault weapons ban and universal background checks for gun buyers, in the wake of last month's Newtown, Connecticut school shooting.
Mr Obama signed 23 executive actions, using his presidential power in a swift effort to check a rash of gun violence including the killings of 20 young children and six adults at Sandy Hook Elementary School.

Murder is not the act of a sane person but how many murderers have ever been identified as mentally unstable? I'd wager that it would be a small percentage. It's time to lay blame where it belongs - at the feet of the person pulling the trigger. They've proven that they are mentally unstable and a danger to others so they should be locked up for good. If a health professional has identified someone who is potentially dangerous to the public, they must report it to a relevant authority and the law must then protect them from legal proceedings for breach of confidentiality - it's not that hard to set up a panel of senior psychologists and psychiatrists who could review the case and then decide whether the person poses a real threat before referring the matter to police and, in cases where the danger is imminent, Section 25 of the Mental Health Act allows for a person to be placed into custody in an approved treatment centre for "...the person's own protection from harm ...or for the protection of others from harm".
ban guns of Brisbane Posted at 11:44 AM January 18, 2013
To the Grey Ghost - perhaps we should lock you up too... Im sure your capable of something horrific. As we all are!! Its a choice. The gunman made a choice. If I confide something I'm "thinking" to my doctor, it doesnt mean I'm actually going to act on it. To then be locked up for every thought is reminisent of 1984 (George Orwell). Everyone is responsible for their own actions. This sort of behaviour is simply litigious, and only ensures any money available to compensate families goes to lawyers. Its time to start accepting responsibility for our own actions, man up, accept what was done - learn from it....
ken ridley of Australia Posted at 11:21 AM January 18, 2013
I think the relevant point here is he told his Psych hë fantasised about killing a lot of people" and she didn't do anything. not even take up the police offer. I think she was just lazy and didn't do the job properly. As far as the comment about suing gun dealers, I am certain any licenced gun dealer would not sell a weapon of any sort to someone who said. "'à want to buy a weapon, I fantasise about killing a lot of people." Get real Chuck...you would have to be a member of the shooters party) That is a typical rant of the NRA, shooters party and other like organisations.

I'm setting up an intranet using Alfie Weather. Really love the widget and the client loves it too. However the widget does not load on a subdirectory. I installed WP in a subdirectory called 'test' to debug this issue in a fresh WP install. localhost/test/
I get a 404 Not Found error for getfeed.php. It is pointing to the root directory of the localhost, instead of the WP root, '/test/' in my case. So, it's looking for /wp-content/plugins/alfie-wp-weather/getfeed.php in the localhost root.
When moved WP to the localhost root, it worked fine.

To qualify, applicants must be at least 21 years old and have no misdemeanor arrests within one year of application. (Prior arrests might be considered in the screening process.) They must work or live in San Joaquin County. A brief background check will be conducted on every applicant, and applicants must maintain their good citizenship through the 12-week program.
Academy size is limited, and there is a fee of $40 that covers T-shirts and course supplies.
The first class is scheduled for 6:30 to 9:30 p.m.Sept. 10 at the San Joaquin County Sheriff's Facility, 7000 Michael Canlis Blvd., French Camp. The class will graduate on Nov. 12.

Antiques Considered - June 18, 2014
- Details
- Last Updated on Wednesday, 18 June 2014 13:43
- Published on Wednesday, 18 June 2014 13:43
- Hits: 685
This cut glass pitcher belongs to a family with long ties to the Northern Neck. It is in excellent condition, and occasionally still is in use for iced tea and lemonade. The owners have been unable to find any identification on it.
The pitcher is a fine example of the American Brilliant Period of glass making in America, which lasted from 1890 to 1915. Principally centered in Ohio, the glass industry during that time produced perhaps the greatest flowering of glass manufacturing in American history. This piece is typical of the age.
That it bears no etched company name is not unusual, as most of the wares of the period do not. Major factories such as Hawkes, Libby and others often did not inscribe their products with identifying markings. Obviously, those which do have the maker's identity are more valuable.
An apprentice spent seven years learning the trade, during which time he made many of the unmarked pieces. Seconds were not allowed on the market, and were smashed; thus, all chipped or otherwise flawed items have suffered after having been purchased.
A current retail value for this pitcher would be $150. Pieces of American Brilliant Period cut glass, as with all antiques, are commodities, subject to changes in both taste and market conditions. Fine cut glass commanded higher prices 30 years ago than they do today. I knew of one Northern Neck family that amassed a collection of over 400 large pieces. The parents died long ago, and the children divided the collection, which regrettably, insofar as many of the items are concerned today, would bring less than the parents had paid for them.
Any will-informed collector would be delighted to add this piece to his or her assortment.
Happy Antiquing!

Not one driver in Chicago has done close to 20 transports in two months let alone one week. Ross Barr will come to a city and hold interview in hotel lobbies from the C.L. responses. Ross Barr also tells you to bring $475 to cover umbrella insurance. I never received a policy, Ins. card or a phone number in case of an accident. Patient care transport and Ross Barr have many fraud reports on ripoff.com for nonpayment of drives in many different states. Id like to get all of you other drives who have experienced no pay for work you have completed and file a class action lawsuit. Also please file a complaint with all of these agencies as I have on line. California Attorney General, FBI internet scam & fraud, Better Business Burial , Consumer protection agency.
Also contact your secretary of state let them know that the independent contract drivers do not have a taxi or livery card. Here in Chicago they consider us cab or taxi service and must have some sort of licensing or cab Madelyn or hard card. Take all your work tickets, or transports you did and NOT paid then copy all other drivers on Ripoff.com reports and take them to where you drop off your patients at hospitals, clinics, Dr. Offices Let them see and read how patient care transport- Ross/Raz Barr really operates his business
I can state a fact that Mr. Barr has blatantly lied to me face to face and on the phone and in his C.L. ad
Please contact me so we can get as many other drives to start a lawsuit.
I have read from Ross Barr no one signs their name to any of the rip-off reports well Ross I am coming after you and hard to put you out of business and to get paid. All of his responses to many of the reports are to call us a liar but before you can call me one you are the one who is the LIAR. I have told the truth I did NOT say this is a scam as I really dont know quite yet BUT I HAVE NOT BEEN PAID FOR ANY OF MY TRANSPORTS AND YOU LIED RIGHT TO MY FACE. People follow thru contacting all agencies.
This is for Ross I sign it! Ill be your worst nightmare pay me. Better yet take me to court as you say you will. All of us drivers will save money!!!

SUBMITTED: Saturday, February 02, 2013POSTED: Saturday, February 02, 2013
I'd like to be contacted by all the drivers so we all CAN put a lawsuit together against him.
Raz goes by the AKA of Ross Barr as well. FYI
I'm not sure how we'll be able to get contact information on each other unless this website will email us this information as long as they have permission in writing to do so. This Website does have my permission to give my email to each one of these drivers or if an attorney requests this you may give it to the attorney as we have already given this permission.
I will say that Raz physically threatened me in front of a lot of people and I'm thinking about pressing charges.
Here is his Ca. State LLC information.

AUTHOR: wade - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Friday, February 01, 2013POSTED: Friday, February 01, 2013
I was called a "camplaigner" and everything suddenly became my fault. I was told they called me and I refused to do transports, and I was the one with the problem, because all their drivers in Chicago were so busy. I told them that in todays technology it was almost impossible to lie about calling, emailing, voicemails, etc., because there is record of it and all my records show not one call, email, text, or voicemail made to me, let alone me actually verbally refusing to do work.
Now all these accusations came after about 10 emails and voicemails over 15 days from me, requesting work. Not one response. Yet this is the story they are sticking to. They refuse to give me any proof of these accusations and actually have the stones to demand an apology from me! These people are the worst of the worst and giving them your money and time is a waste of your money and time. Feel fee to call me about my opinion (((phone number redacted))) Wade G CLICK here to see why Rip-off Report, as a matter of policy, deleted either a phone number, link or e-mail address from this Report.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

This is the 7th box of 8 in the Fall Spree Series. These hikes are all part of a hiking program sponsored by the Summit County Metroparks. Visit www.summitmetroparks.org for more information.
The clues start from the entrance on Akron-Peninsula Road near Bath Road. As you enter the trail you will go left if you look to the right you'll see the path head up the hill (this is where you'll loop around and out). Before the bridge make a right and follow the symbol for Adam's Run. The path curves through the tree cover just before the hairpin turn to the left be sure to look for the unique knotted tree tot he left. Head up the hill, you'll level off for a bit then climb again. A large vine is growing on a maple tree to the right. Stand at the small tree just in front of the maple and walk 40 paces further up the path. Three sentries guard the creek, place your back to these guards and look up the hill for a tree divided into thirds. Behind its base/rootball you'll find your LB. It's easier up the left side.
Continue on the trail for just under 3 miles and you'll return to the starting point.
Continue on the trail for just over 2 miles to complete the trail for the program or if your just after the stamp

Rally, a national 501(c)3 non-profit based in Atlanta, empowers volunteers across the country to raise awareness and funds for childhood cancer research to find better treatments with fewer long-term side effects and, ultimately, cures.
Rally began in Atlanta with a simple and impassioned request from one mom to another, as her 12-year-old son was fighting a brain tumor. When asked how they could help, she replied "Raise money for childhood cancer research and fund the best research wherever it may be." The vision for Rally was born that day. In the 8 years since, Rally has given more than $5.25 million in research grants, funding more than 75 cutting-edge projects and fellows across the country.

American Wins Friends and Influence at the U.N.
Published: January 24, 1990
(Page 2 of 2)
Mr. Pickering failed to win Congressional backing for the higher pay and perks that he says the Mission needs to attract quality officials to New York. Washington's United Nations office is about 25 percent understaffed.
On two occasions, Mr. Pickering's advice has been rejected by the Administration. Although he predicted that the Palestine Liberation Organization could be stopped from winning recognition as a state, as it was seeking at last year's General Assembly session, the State Department weighed in with a threat to bankrupt the organization if the P.L.O. was admitted as a nation. The Arabs nations decided eventually not to press the issue.
Soon after, Vice President Dan Quayle demanded the repeal of a General Assembly resolution equating Zionism with racism, although Mr. Pickering, like other Western diplomats, judged this effort difficult without a Middle East breakthrough.
Both episodes angered America's allies because they showed the United States in an arrogant light, trying to impose conditions even while owing the organization a half-billion dollars in dues. But many experts say a Cabinet seat and a big office in Washington would not have made much difference.
Bush Under Nixon
After all, George Bush was cast in the role of straw man by President Nixon, who left him struggling to keep China out of the United Nations in the early 1970's while Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger was secretly negotiating its admission in Beijing.
And Daniel Patrick Moynihan, now the Democratic Senator from New York, had no illusions about his importance as a Cabinet officer when he served here under President Ford.
He began ''A Dangerous Place,'' a book about his spell as United States permanent representative, by recalling the fate of many of his predecessors. He wrote: ''I had seen Stevenson humiliated. Goldberg betrayed. Ball diminished. Wiggins patronized. Yost ignored. Bush traduced. Scali savaged.''
''A man of Tom Pickering's experience knows his way around Washington and can get his views across effectively,'' a senior American diplomat said. ''But he is still basically an ambassador who most of the time carries out orders made by others.''
A Visible Post
A direct, open man, Mr. Pickering always seemed assured of success. Born in 1931, he was educated at Bowdoin College in Brunswick, Me., before attending the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University and winning a Fulbright Scholarship to study in Australia. After State Department posts in intelligence and arms, he served as Deputy Chief of Mission in Tanzania and as special assistant to William P. Rogers and Mr. Kissinger when they were Secretary of State.
He was Ambassador to Jordan, Assistant Secretary of State for Oceans and International Environment and Scientific Affairs, and Ambassador to Nigeria, El Salvador and Israel before taking the United Nations post.
Despite its curtailed privileges, the United Nations job remains a singularly prestigious and visible post, one that involves dealing with 158 foreign governments at once. The job brings a rambling apartment at the top of the Waldorf Towers where Mr. Pickering lives with his wife, Alice, and their two children. The apartment costs the Government about $250,000 a year.

A 16th-minute penalty from Sam Baldock was enough to beat an off-key Saddlers side, who rarely tested home goalkeeper Elliott Parish.
Smith said: "For some reason we weren't at it. We didn't use the ball well enough and Bristol created better chances than we did.
"The penalty decision was correct and, although I could moan about some of their time-wasting tactics, I can't have any complaints about the result.
"If we had been on our game we would have got something from the match, but that wasn't the case. Bristol worked hard and made things difficult for us, but we had an off day.
"We won't dwell on it and one thing I can say about my players is that when they have a setback they tend to bounce back quickly, so I shall be expecting a positive response in our next game at Gillingham."
The deadlock was broken in the 16th minute when City midfielder Bobby Reid was tripped by Saddlers goalkeeper Richard O'Donnell as he burst into the box on the left.
Baldock found the middle of the goal with a drilled spot-kick and might have gone on to score four or five.
Reid had to be replaced because of injury after 27 minutes, but the home side stayed in control and could have been out of sight by the break as Baldock squandered two great chances.
Walsall were restricted to long-range efforts in the first half and went close just before the interval when Romaine Sawyers fired narrowly wide from the edge of the box.
The visitors lifted their game in the second half, but were still unable to force a testing save from Parish.
At the other end Baldock had two more chances to make the game safe, but on each occasion was denied by goalkeeper O'Donnell.

text: When I try to upload a recipe image or an image to the instructions. The uploader shows up correctly and I'm able to upload an image, however when I try to insert it, the dialog box goes white and nothing happens (even after waiting a few minute). I eventually close the dialog box to find that nothing has happened (i.e. the image has not attached itself to a step). Also I'm not sure if this is a related issue, but usually the "Add Media" dialog box has a "gallery" tab that shows only the images associated to that post. The dialog that shows up when I click "upload image" in ReciPress only has "From Computer", "From URL" and "Media Library". This is a little inconvenient especially as I go back through old posts and add recipes using RecipPress because I have to go back through pages of old images in the Media Library to find the images for that post.

The trail head to Cave Mountain can be found on River Street right after crossing the bridge over the Saco River. You start the hike on the Mt Langdon Trail and then make a hard left about a quarter mile in to go up to Cave Mountain. Here the trail starts to get steeper and athen very sttep jsut as you reach the cave. This is a fun plae for kids to explore. The cave is interesting but not very deep; the kids love the mystery of a cave! There is another 10 minute steep climb up around the cliff face to the top…well worth the view. You can see right down into Bartlett, Attitash Mountain and Bear Peak too. The Saco River also appears as a snake across the view! The whole hike takes 30-45 minutes each way. It is a perfect length, challenge and with a cave and view lots to keep the kids attention! Stay at the BArtlett Inn 1 800 292 2353 and enjoy a swim in the heated pool after you family hike.

I was searching in the doc and in the web for changing the http_host of the last assertEqual test of assertRedirects and in the doc host parameter doesn't exist.
In order to find it I had to find it in the source code

- Needs documentation unset
- Needs tests unset

I'm not sure the use case for this, could you given an example? The docstring for assertRedirects says "Note that assertRedirects won't work for external links since it uses TestClient to do a request."
The assertion in the Django test suite:
self.assertRedirects(response, '/test_client/get_view/', host=host)
Could just as easily be rewritten:
self.assertRedirects(response, 'http://%s/test_client/get_view/' % host)
This was added in commit 30848dfe34bb027c40ae1902623bd2fb675f6424.

Well, presumable the use case is documenting a feature that is available. This isn't asking for a new feature; it's documenting an existing one.
comment:3 Changed 4 years ago by timo
I meant what is the use case for using a different host in assertRedirects (since assertRedirects doesn't work for external links). I'd like to be able to document why someone would want to use the argument.

Please don't mark your own patch as RFC.
The patch looks ok, but I'm still not clear about how/why I would actually use the host parameter. As I noted earlier, the docstring says "Note that assertRedirects won't work for external links since it uses TestClient to do a request." Indeed, if I try to use assertRedirects on a view that returns something like HttpResponseRedirect("http://www.djangoproject.com/download/"), the test client will attempt to fetch /download/ of the app that's being tested, not of djangoproject.com.
I see the test that was added when this was originally committed works by instantiating the TestClient like this: Client(HTTP_HOST=host), where host is 'django.testserver'. I'm all for documenting this if there's some use case, but as is, I think this will cause confusion.

I received this DX news direct from the FGC (Foundation for Global Children) Radio Team early this morning (April 21):
Zorro is currently in Greece, signing SV8/KH0WF/p from Ammouliani Island (EU-174) active on 17 and 40m SSB, possibly on 10/12/20m also today if time permits. He will be there until Wednesday, 23rd April. QSL via JH1AJT; P.O. Box 8, Oiso, Naka, KANAGAWA 259-0111 Japan.
FGC Radio Team"
If you've learned anything through the years about Zorro, you'll know he is always full of surprises. He caught the world off-guard with several activations of Myanmar in 2013 and again this year. His global humanitarian work is legendary. How he does it all I haven't a clue. All I know is Zorro is what I call a "finisher". Finishers are a rare breed. They don't talk about it, they just do it. They finish what they started, every time without exception. They dream it, then do it.
I sure hope somebody, somewhere is working on the book, "The Legend of Zorro" (great title for a movie too, heehee).
Keep an eye here at N0UN.net for any late breaking news on Zorro's world travels 🙂

War declared: Apple's Cult Takes on Google's Borg

Analyst Opinion - The ignorant masses milling around the iPod display at the local Wal-Mart last week had no idea that they were at Ground Zero of the next titanic battle in all of technologydom. And while past conflicts, like Microsoft kicking IBM into the PC weeds a generation ago and Google more recently knocking Microsoft down a peg or two, typically involved relative newcomers picking off established, dominant leaders, the fight that's about to get underway is different than anything we've seen before.

Microhoo is not just about traffic. It's about data. Period.
July 30, 2009 - 13:28
Opinion – I am glad some deal between Microsoft and Yahoo finally got done. Despite its seemingly simple purpose to give Microsoft much more leverage in advertising through increased search market share, it is somewhat apparent that this is a very complex partnership with much more intentions than Microsoft has revealed so far. Microsoft can't be so naïve to believe that the deal will allow the company to catch up with Google in search market share just by slapping a Bing logo on Yahoo's front page. No, Microsoft is after something entirely different.

Steve Jobs, the unique artisan CEO

Rob Enderle, Principal Analyst, Enderle Group
Analyst Opinion - This month I've been doing a lot of thinking and talking about Steve Jobs and his return. What I keep coming back to is why there is only one CEO that is like him? Granted each CEO is somewhat unique, but Steve stands out from the rest rather noticeably. There have been a number of books profiling Steve the two most recent, iCon Steve Jobs (which Apple tried to block), and Inside Steve's Brain combined tell a story of someone that could have never made it to the top ranks of any mature company. But now that he is up there it is hard to find anyone else that is more successful for their company, customers, and their investors than Steve has been.

ARM is the dominant processor technology that is supplied by companies like Marvell, which uses technology that has been picked up up from Intel and Qualcomm.

Why Apple needs Microsoft to survive the coming OS battle
April 29, 2009 - 01:21
Rob Enderle, Principal Analyst, Enderle Group
Analyst Opinion - With Google coming to market, the OS environment is very similar to what it was in the late 80s with Microsoft in IBM's position, Apple in Apple's, and Google in Microsoft's. Windows 7 is the best operating system that Microsoft has created since Windows 95, but it breaks the same model that Windows 95 did - and Windows 95 began the cycle that effectively eliminated much of Microsoft's market control. In the end, the next three years will be one for the history books. Those who lose will go down in infamy for their failures.

Oracle-Sun: A glass half full
April 20, 2009 - 14:37
Jack Gold, Principal Analyst, J.Gold Associates
Analyst Opinion - This morning, we found out that the Sun might rise again. Oracle has decided to spend approximately $7.4 billion to buy its long time neighbor down the highway. This combination of two stalwarts instrumental in the rise of the Silicon Valley high-tech powerbase signals a regretful passing of a member of the old guard. But times change and Sun did not change with the times (much as Digital, Compaq, SGI, Cray and others before it.) The question is, why would Oracle, a company who has been gobbling up companies over the past few years (e.g., Siebel, Peoplesoft, BEA), but with its own set of challenges, want to move into hardware – a commodity, cut throat business?

The Pirate Bay: Piracy not dead by a longshot

In many respects, the conviction last week of the founders of The Pirate Bay file sharing site is a lot like this silly old game. There is no doubt, Pirate Bay isn't dead and the convictions reinforce the industry's challenge to treat the Internet as what it is and win the hearts of consumers.

Why Sun makes a whole lot of sense for IBM
March 18, 2009 - 19:26
Wolfgang Gruener
Opinion – Finally! I have been waiting for some big mergers for at least half a year, given the fact that some companies could pick up some of their rivals for pocket change these days. Still, the news that IBM might acquire Sun came as a surprise this morning and raised especially one question: Why would IBM want Sun? Sun has not much that is especially attractive from an economic point of view and seemed to be struggling with finding a focus since Scott McNealy handed over the controls to Jonathan Schwartz. But look closer and Sun may be one of the big bargains currently on the market – a bargain that could solve a lot of problems for IBM.

Fake iTunes cards challenge Apple's iTunes business
March 11, 2009 - 11:40
Christian Zibreg
Apparently fake iTunes gift cards are the next big thing in the underground cybercriminal world. Earlier this week, Chinese hackers enabled this new "business" by cracking the algorithm used to generate the voucher codes printed on real prepaid iTunes Gift Cards. As a result, a slurry of fake iTunes cards began popping up all over the web, enabling a consumer to buy a valid voucher code that could be redeemed at the iTunes Store for music, movies and TV shows purchases. The $200 iTunes gift cards are selling for as low as $2.60 -- if you are willing to shop on Asian web sites using credit card processing firms most westerners have never heard of.

Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak shows that nerds can dance
March 10, 2009 - 21:45
Christian Zibreg
Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak will surely remember his dance performance on the reality show Dancing with the Stars for as long as he lives. Not only did Woz embarrass his dance pair Katrina Smirnoff, who is a world champion pro dancer, but he was taunted by the three-panel judges who didn't spare a word to graphically describe his nerdy moves. But kudos to Woz who had guts to prove that yes, nerds can dance, too -- and do so in front of the 20+ million viewership. Our advice though to Woz: Get in line for the Dancing with the Nerds show instead. At least there you'll stand a better chance -- although the ultimate winner of that show would probably have to be, without a doubt, Steve Ballmer. EXTRA: VIDEO

Who needs Steve Jobs, anyway?
March 6, 2009 - 13:15
Christian Zibreg
This past Tuesday, it felt like Steve Jobs personally orchestrated the multiple hardware updates of Mac desktop lines when, in reality, all Apple did was leak the Mac mini spyshot and announce updated products with two press releases. What a remarkable departure for the California-based consumer electronics powerhouse that up until recently used to send tingles down our spines with glamorous media events centered around Steve Jobs and his showmanship. While many fans would like to believe Apple's marketing will turn to old practices once Steve Jobs gets back from his medical leave, in reality it won't. In fact, Steve Jobs may never return to Apple and the recent stark departure in how the company markets its products might be part of a carefully-staged plan to prepare all of us for the idea of an Apple without Steve Jobs.

Internet Safety Act: Welcome, Big Brother
February 25, 2009 - 10:05
Carmi Levy
Analyst Opinion -Most of us would agree that pornography is a scourge that, if it can't be eliminated from our online experience, should at least be shoved to the margins so that regular folks like us can enjoy the Internet in peace without be inundated. We'd also agree that child pornography is particularly reprehensible, and society owes its victims an unwavering commitment to make every reasonable effort to stop it. This is why I'm so torn over The Internet Safety Act, a package of two bills introduced by Texan legislators that, if passed into law, would force ISPs to retain user data from every subscriber's IP address for up to two years (see TG Daily's previous coverage).

Chicago (IL) - Marketing 101: How can I increase traffic, visibility and name recognition on my growing website without paying for it? A-ha! Let me change the policies of my website to such an outrageous extent that individuals will become so infuriated and irate they'll blog about it, Tweet about it, start Facebook groups about it, and draw the attention of national high traffic publications. And then, once we've grabbed the attention of the masses, we'll utilize that opportunity to make ourselves not seem to be the evil bad guys, catering to the people's voice.

Verizon Wireless honoring pre-cap contracts

Opinion - In late 2007 when I was in San Francisco for Intel's Developer Forum, I signed up for Verizon Wireless broadband. Since then I have used it all across this nation while driving back and forth, and apart from some sporadic loss of signals when driving in mountain ranges, I have never had any problem with the service. And today, I found out that Verizon is still honoring their unlimited usage contracts made before their current 5GB capped contracts.

Wonderwall.com reveals Microsoft's hand: Aces and eights

Opinion - Microsoft appears to be grasping at every source of revenue potential it can reach and then some. It's actually now moved beyond the point of being kind of interesting to follow along with, and into the area of "Okay, it's time to be a little concerned." This most recent move of Wonderwall's celebrity news/gossip site has us scratching our heads and wonderwalling: What are they thinking?
