The industrial revolution continues - starting with the steam engines of the 18th century, continuing with large-scale steel production, oil exploitation, electrical and photographic innovations of the 19th century, and moving on to the transportation, communications, computation and electronics of the 20th century. It is still early in the 21st century, but we can safely say software has become the engine that feeds the industrial, economic, medical, and gradually the political issues of our existence. The only way to satisfy the demand for the volume and complexity of the software that is needed to keep our world moving is to maximally share and reuse code within and across application domains.
Open Source Software (OSS) is the epitome of code reuse, enabling complex applications to be realized rapidly, economically and safely. Probably the largest collaborative endeavor in human kind to date, open source feeds on itself. Independent studies have converged on the fact that open source is everywhere, and depending on the source of the study, 80-100% of all software organizations now use open source software in their products or operations.
There is an implicit understanding that good developers do not write code from scratch any more. Rather, they can adapt a piece of existing code to furnish a desired function. Use of off-the-shelf code such as OSS brings the usual due diligence and precautions associated with deployment of any third-party content within an organization. The pedigree of the code, its ownership attributes, and the rules around the use of open source code (typically captured in a license document) govern its introduction within an organization and its suitability for an end-target use.
Open source software brings with it an unusual set of ownership issues. Unlike other commodities, open source code can be brought into an organization freely. While anything that is purchased in a transaction has implied ownership, ownership and usage of OSS can be confusing to many developers or organizations. Generally, the copyright ownership of OSS always stays with the creator of the open source code. The OSS copyright owner creates and communicates a license that explicitly sets out the rules governing the use of that open source software.
Continuous Versus One-Time OSS Assessment
Detecting and complying with OSS code in a software project has become an important part of a quality and governance process in organizations that create or consume software.
Product quality considerations and standards require that a recorded knowledge of all the third-party components within a product be maintained at all times. These records should also include attributes such as pedigree, defect history and improvements over time, potential vulnerabilities, and code propagation within the organization. These records can be best maintained, not by a one-time examination of the organization's code portfolio, but through an ongoing and structured third-party and open source software adoption process. The practice of creating and updating the records automatically as development proceeds ensures ongoing compliance with the requirements of a quality organization.
As opposed to the continuous recordkeeping requirements of a quality process, a software audit is a one-time activity targeted at providing insight into the intellectual property (IP) ownership or IP rights, in anticipation of a transaction such as an M&A or a product shipment to market.
Open source software audits, generally carried out by an external body, involves an examination of a software portfolio in order to detect OSS and third-party code within that portfolio. The result of the audit is a report which highlights open source and third party components and their attributes. At a high level, statistics such as the names of any public-domain software packages and whether they are used in a modified or unmodified format, composition of the license mix, copyrights, vulnerabilities, languages, and open source lines of code are provided. At a more detailed level, specific open source or proprietary packages that were discovered, their license attributes, links to resources that contain additional information, text of the licenses, copyrights, and know security vulnerabilities associated with the components of the software are provided.
An audit process would highlight code that is specifically copyrighted, but for which no license is offered or mentioned. These cases are one of the challenging aspects in establishing IP ownership, as the copyright owner must be contacted for explicit permission to use their code. Also, any code that is not in the public domain and has no identifying information, such as headers, must be highlighted as requiring further investigation.
The Science: Detecting Third-Party Packages in a Portfolio
Once all OSS and other third-party packages are identified and a software Bill of Materials (BoM) is available, then the list can be examined for properties such as licenses, known deficiencies, security vulnerabilities, various obligations associated with their use, and functions such as encryption that could restrict its use in certain markets.
A number of methods can be used to identify open source and commercial software within a software portfolio. A short list of these methods will include the following.
- Records by developers: Any records maintained by developers and development managers will assist the process.
- Information held within a file, or folder: A quality-development practice is to include a header on every file that holds information about the software package, organization, copyright and license associated with the file or the package. Often binaries also include identifying information, such as copyright owner, project name, and the license pointers within the file. Another quality practice is to include licensing or other information about a software package within the package.
- File/folder names and paths: These could be additional indicators of the presence of a known public domain or commercial software.
- Similarity with public-domain software: Any similarity between a software file, or portions of a software file, and a file in public domain could accurately indicate the presence of OSS in a portfolio. A full-file code similarity to a public domain file would indicate unmodified use of the OSS software. A partial code match would indicate use of OSS in a modified form. This is significant because many open source licenses trigger different obligations based on how the file is used.
There are hundreds of thousands of public-domain projects accessible to developers. When you consider that an OSS project can have multiple versions in the public domain and each package can consist of anything between two and 200,000 files, we gain an appreciation for the task involved in this method. Manual identification of code similarity to millions of files is obviously impractical. Only intelligent automated solutions can go through a software portfolio and examine similarity between each and every file in that portfolio and software files in public domain.
The Art: Reading Between the Lines
The methods described above could theoretically provide insight into composition of a code portfolio. However, those methods alone are not sufficient to reveal an accurate view of the code composition.
- Manual records are the least reliable method as third-party content is often brought into a project without registering a record. Also, in today's typical development environment it is very difficult to guarantee access to the original developer's piece of software.
- File header information is not necessarily an accurate representation of the file pedigree and license. These can be changed by a developer, or automatically as in Linux kernel header files that were used in Android packages.
- Almost all OSS uses OSS. For example, there are more than 65,000 instances of commons.logging (a popular Apache logging layer), and more than 50,000 instances each of Log4j (another Apache logging utility for Java) and JUnit (a popular testing framework for Java) code in various public-domain projects. This leads to OSS project and license nesting complexities and contributes to challenges in correctly identifying the OSS packages within a portfolio. It is critical to detect the genesis OSS project and the version of the original and framing OSS projects. Practical examples of this challenge are:
- Open source packages that use other OSS but do not maintain or propagate the original OSS license. This action may not be legitimate depending on the original OSS license and the license of the derived OSS package and can lead to erroneous conclusions about the quality as well as usage obligations associated with the organization's software.
- Open source packages that change the license in subsequent versions such as moving from one version of a license. For example, GPLv2 to GPLv3 on a new release of the OSS project or moving from one license to another compatible license.
- Projects where the OSS file or folder name is modified. This happens regularly on libraries (those with .jar or .bin extensions), and less frequently on source code files.
- Seemingly known but non-existent licenses mentioned within a file or folder. A prime example is an OSS package that claims it's released under GPL. There is no GPL, only versioned GPL such as GPL v1, v2 licenses are available.
The art of OSS audit activity and license management relies on a clear understanding of the open source software community, open source packages, open source licenses, and development practices. This understanding comes with both academic knowledge as well as experience in scanning, reviewing, and auditing hundreds of software portfolios. Automated solutions that combine the science of scanning and license management with empirical methods that embody the art of open source package detection and license discovery can significantly speed up the discovery and management process and minimize, although not eliminate, the human involvement factor.
Rapid software development is necessary for sustaining the pace of innovation needed in today's world and the use of OSS is perhaps the best way to maintain this pace. While most organizations are now using open source to their advantage, they must avoid potential complications that OSS license obligations present. The complexity that OSS licenses present makes it almost impossible to manage obligations manually. This is where automated solutions come in. Conducting a one-time audit, or preferably, having a continuous process in place to automatically detect OSS licenses and their obligations is the best way to protect your organization from risk while ensuring continuous innovation.

Hi, i get the following error message when trying to activate Multiple Content Blocks:
1st attempt:
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare init_multiplecontent() (previously declared in /customers/eco13.eu/eco13.eu/httpd.www/wp-content/plugins/web-editors-cms/multiple_content.php:4) in /customers/eco13.eu/eco13.eu/httpd.www/wp-content/plugins/multiple-content-blocks/multiple_content.php on line 17
2nd attempt:
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare init_multiplecontent() in /customers/eco13.eu/eco13.eu/httpd.www/wp-content/plugins/multiple-content-blocks/multiple_content.php on line 11
Does that mean I have multiple content blocks already? Is it perhaps the same as "extra fields"?
In my editor page there is a block saying "There are no content blocks in this template." - I was hoping the MCB plugin would help with that...
All help/suggestions are welcome!

A third woman charged in connection with the kidnapping of a 6-year-old Kemper County girl has been denied bond.
U.S. Magistrate Judge Keith Ball ruled Friday that 25-year-old Shamarius Ruffin should be jailed until a grand jury meets.
He earlier ordered Jesse Mae Brown Pollard and Wanda Dancy held.
The three are charged with kidnapping Jashayla Hopson from East Kemper Elementary School in Scooba April 30.
Federal authorities charge Ruffin went into the school to retrieve the girl at Pollard's request.
Also Thursday, Ball granted a defense request that Pollard, of Northport, Ala., undergo a psychiatric exam.
Investigators say Hopson was taken to Alabama by Pollard where they spent the night of April 30 in a hotel.
The girl was dropped off, unharmed, on a Mississippi road the next morning.

Superstorm Sandy flooded or dropped snow on much of the eastern U.S. on Oct. 29, 2012, becoming the nation's second-most expensive weather disaster at $65 billion and killing at least 182 people in the U.S. after claiming 72 lives in the Caribbean. A look at New Jersey and New York, the hardest-hit states:
New Jersey
Deaths: 71
Damage and recovery: Sandy's center made landfall at Brigantine, near Atlantic City, at 7:30 p.m. The worst of the surge hit much of the tourist-heavy Jersey shore, destroying boardwalks and plunging a roller coaster into the ocean from its pier in one of the storm's most iconic images. More than $5.6 billion in federal assistance has been paid.
New York
Deaths: 68, including 44 in New York City
Damage and recovery: More than 2 million homes and businesses lost power, including big chunks of New York City. The storm's surge peaked at nearly 14 feet, Staten Island was hard hit, and a shorefront community in Queens burned. Parts of Long Island were swamped. The city subway is mostly running after some tunnels flooded, though repairs and preparations for future disasters remain. More than $8 billion has been approved in state and federal assistance to homeowners, renters, businesses, government agencies and nonprofits.

There may come a time in your creative process where you just hit a roadblock when it comes to developing color. Now, chances are the client is going to be very specific about what type of color they want in their design. But just in case they give you a little creative freedom, you might find it a little difficult to come up with color combinations. And that's okay, because there are several tools out there that will help you develop your own color palettes. My favorite is something called Kuler, and it's available for free by Adobe. So, just go to kuler.adobe.com, and you can sign in using your free Adobe ID.
If you don't have an Adobe ID, you can register, like I said, for free on adobe.com. Once you have your Adobe ID, log in to Kuler, and you can start accessing all of the different things that are available to you on this community site. As I said, Kuler is a community about color. And so you can come here and take a look at all of the different color combinations that other people have created. You can also create your own and share them with other people. You can download color palettes for use in different applications like Photoshop and Illustrator. It's a very powerful tool, and I really think that you should use it.
So, let's say, for instance, that I have a client that came to me and said "I need you to build me a web site for this fall festival that I'm getting ready to put on." I say okay, and we get to the point where we're talking about colors and they don't really have anything in mind, and I don't necessarily have anything in mind. I can bring up Kuler, and I can come right here to the search box, and I can just type in "fall" and hit search. Once I do that, it's going to return several different options available to me with that keyword fall. I can search through them and page through the results just like this until I find something that I want.
Once I find something, like maybe this one here, I can click on it. When I click on it, it shows real big across the top, just like this. I also get some information about it here. I can see that it's got brown, burnt, chocolate, fall, green, all these different keywords associated with it. I can see when it was created. I can see if it has any votes, how many times it's been downloaded, so I can see if it's in play anywhere else. I can also view more info like this, get a direct link to it if I need to. I could copy that and then send it to my client, say hey! What do you think about these colors? I can also use this button here to download the theme as an Adobe Swatch Exchange file or a .ase file. .ase files can be loaded into almost every single Adobe application, so that you can then use those swatches in your designs.
So, for instance, if I were to download this-- and I'll just save it to my desktop--I could then go back into Adobe Illustrator. I will go to File > New and just create a blank document. It doesn't matter what document you create. I'll bring up my Swatches panel and drag it out so you can see it. And I'll go here, and I'll choose Open Swatch Library, and I'll go to Other Library, go to my Desktop, choose Fall Fall.ase, hit Open, and there it is.
It loads right in there for me. I can then use all of these colors in my design if I want to. Pretty simple. If I go back over to Kuler, I can see that I can also create my own swatches. So if I go to Create, it's going to jump me here to an image, but I'm going to say From a Color. So let's say that I have a color--and I'll just mix one really quickly here like that, just mix this kind of purple color. I can then go up here and select different rules, like Analogous, Monochromatic, Triad, Complementary, Compound, Shades, and even Custom as well.
Now, you notice as I hover over these it gives you a little pop-up menu indicating what's going to happen when you do this. So, when I click Shades, it's going to create subtle variations of the base color's hue. So, that's what it looks like. Compound: combine interesting colors from multiple hues. Complementary: oppose two colors on the wheel for a simple theme based on two hues, just like this. Triad: space your colors in a triangle around the wheel, and see it forms that little shape. Monochromatic focuses on one color with varied intensity and lightness in a single hue of a color. And then we have Analogous: Match colors with adjacent hues.
So, for this one, I think that Monochromatic is probably the way I want to go, and so I can go over here, give it a title, just call this My colors, and hit Save. Once I do that, it jumps me over into Mykuler and Themes, and there's My Colors right there. I can then download these which I just created as an ASE file. I will download it to my desktop, and then I can hop right over into Illustrator, again go to the Window menu and bring up my Swatches panel, and I can click here; Open Swatch Library > Other Library, and on my desktop should be My colors. Open it up and there they are.
So, the next time you get stumped creating a color palette for your designs, check out kuler.adobe.com and mix and match your own colors to see what you can come up with.

I don't know why people do this pump and dump thing anyway! We are all here to make money and have financial freedom someday! IMHO it would be smarter to pump every stock rather than making derogatory remarks on stocks so everyone gets rich not just certain people! Every one of us is in a stock for the same reason "TO MAKE MONEY!" So IMHO we are doing nothing but hurting ourselves in that aspect and in return making the companies play us in our bias!!!!

ATLANTA (AP) -- A modest two-game winning streak has boosted
Georgia from last place to near the top of the Southeastern
Conference's Eastern Division.
Georgia's 43-0 win over Vanderbilt on Saturday has the Bulldogs
right back in the East race. The Bulldogs had help as two teams
ahead of them in the division, South Carolina and Florida, were
upset by Kentucky and Mississippi State, respectively.
Georgia, 3-4 overall, is 2-3 in SEC games and tied with Florida
for second in the East behind South Carolina. No team in the
division has a winning SEC record. South Carolina, at 2-2, is the
only .500 team in the East.
The Bulldogs play at Kentucky next week.

If you go to the Pending Clearance tab in the Revenue page you can then scroll over each pending clearance tag next to an amount to see what day it will be cleared on. It generally takes 14 days.1

kjblynx ReportContact Me17th Jul 2013 at 9:16 PM
Reply to @beno_rohman: What I just explained is the V2 way of doing things. To get to the Pending Clearance tab on the revenue page you need to go to "Sales" on the top of the Fiverr page, then find "Revenues" on the right side.
Once in the Revenues section you will notice a dollar amount labeled "Earned", "Withdrawals", "Used to order gigs", "Pending Clearance", and "Available Funds." By clicking on "Pending Clearance" you will be brought to a page with all your pending transactions; by holding your pointer over the transaction you are interested in (not clicking) you will have a little popup by your pointer with the date it will be cleared.
This, of course, will only work if your Java and browser are up-to-date.
The old way had the clearance date listed right on the revenue page; now it is a little more difficult to get to.1

Does no one actually read the details about the site before signing up?
Funds take 14 days to clear after the order has been completed. So depending on how quickly your buyer responded after you delivered the order (if in fact that did) it could be as long as 17 days later or even, in the case of physical items sent by post, a whole month later.
'Pending' is for orders delivered, not cleared.
'Clearing' is funds from orders delivered and completed, either by the buyer or automatically three days after delivery (14 days after for shipped items)
'Upcoming earnings' relate to gigs ordered but not yet delivered.0Admin
sstu009 ReportContact Me17th Dec 2013 at 9:25 PM
Same deal here – I have several orders that should have cleared by now.
I guess if someone leaves you feedback its normally 14 days from the time the feedback is left.
If a buyer did NOT leave feedback it takes 17 days, but could take longer….I think fiverr likes to hold these in….0

Same thing happening to me too and it has never happened before. I have orders that should have cleared yesterday and some from today too.
Madmoo does explain the clearing system to those that dont get it, but what we are talking about here is oders that are pending clearance and it has been over 24 hours. I have never had any orders pending that are dated from one day ago, first time for me.0

Add me to the list experiencing this issue. I'd recommend anyone with funds pending clearance over 24 hours past the clearing date to file a ticket with Fiverr support.0

This isn't the first time for me, and I'm sure others. It's aggravating, but usually gets fixed within a day or two.0

Yeah, it happens sometimes. It happened more often in V1, but this is a well known bug that happens from time to time even in V2.
I am in the same boat. I have hundreds of funds pending to be cleared since 2 days ago. However I'm sure it will be solved within the next 24 to 48 hours. 🙂

I sent a ticket. I'm now three days behind with funds that are due to have cleared 🙁
Yes, my initial response was regarding the general process and how it SHOULD happen. This is clearly a different issue.
Send your tickets in (it won't get you any interest back on the funds, and won't result in payments being backdated etc, but at least they won't be able to claim it's an isolated issue, which it's clearly not).0Admin

wingle ReportContact Me18th Dec 2013 at 2:36 AM
Same here. My money also not released since DEC 16.
Last day i found a disturbing payment bug. Which obviously i have reported to Customer Support and waiting for their reply .
I go through some orders and find that i have been PAID less in few orders.
For Example: i completed a GIG order which was of $30 amount. And i was supposed to be paid $24 but i see in my CLEARED AMOUNT page i got $12 for that order.
And i find this error on 13 places. I am not sure this happened with only me or anyone else having this issue.
If anyone want to check just go through your CLEARED FUNDS page and TALLY your transactions cleared amount with original Order amount.
Let me know if anyone find same BUG.0

Choose Revenues and there you can see the due date of the pending clearance.
Normally, it takes 14-17 days to clear the money.
Thereafter, you can withdraw your money with Paypal or payoneer.
Hope this was helpful.0

Thanks danish82 for your feedback.
Now here members are now discussing an other issue of payments. Cleared payments are not adding into balance from DEC 16th.
Also amounts are not correct of cleared payments or pending clearance payments compared to orders.0

I also noticed that funds that should have cleared on the 16th are not cleared yet. Now I'm thinking I better go back and check that the actual amounts that have cleared are correct.
Are you saying that the amount cleared doesn't match the purchase amount minus 20%?0

Funds are cleared.
But the problem is still there of less funds.
There is a difference in cleared funds amount and actual gig order amount.
I still see all those previous orders and recently cleared orders. Some of them have wrong amount cleared. Which is less amount compared to what it should be.
Anyone else having this problem?0

Reply to @wingle: Yes I have experienced this as well! I had a buyer who initially ordered for $25 and added another gig extra worth $10! After Fiverr's 20% I had to get $28! But instead of one order of $28, the funds cleared separately for $20 + $8. But both directed me to the same order page which stated each of them are for an amount of $35! So that sums upto $70 ($56 after Fiverr's 20%). Though it showed $70 the actual orders were worth only $35 and that is what I had when the funds cleared!0

Reply to @wingle: no, they clear as a single transaction, it's just that if extras were added afterwards, then the clearing time would have been extended.
Mine are cleared now.

Reply to @madmoo: It does not matter to me how long they take to clear. All it matter is the amount is clearing is less what it would be from that order.
my funds are cleared from previous days. But the less amount problem is still not resolved and i am still waiting for support reply. (maybe they are working to resolve this issue of mine that is why not sent me any update)
Have you checked you last cleared amounts? Did you found this issue?0

Reply to @dilshands: Yes i have shown in my excel sheet preview every order which has problem is linked to two transactions. That if fine.
But i see the amount still does not justify with two transactions.
Means the order is $35 after all extras (some extras added after).
It does split into two transactions. But two transactions still showing less amount then it should be from $35.0

Big Sur
by Jack Kerouac
Big Sur Man and the Natural World Quotes
How we cite our quotes: Citations follow this format: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #1
Pacific fury flashing on rocks that rise like gloomy sea shroud towers out of the cove, the bingbang cove with its seas booming inside caves and slapping out, the cities of seaweed floating up and down you can even see their dark leer in the phosphorescent seabeach nightlight. (5.5)
Look at the way Jack's mood is reflected in his word choice ("fury," "gloomy," "shroud"). His language serves as a reminder that the natural world is subject to interpretation in this novel. We're also reminded linguistically that the landscape is often more emotional than physical.
Quote #2
Who cant sleep like a log in a solitary cabin in the woods, you wake up in the late morning so refreshed and realizing the universe namelessly: the universe is an Angel -- But easy enough to say when you've had your escape from the gooky city turn into a success -- And it's finally only in the woods you get that nostalgia for "cities" at last, you dream of long gray journeys to cities where soft evenings'll unfold like Paris but never seeing how sickening it will be because of the primordial innocence of health and stillness in the wilds... So I tell myself "Be Wise. " (5.6)
Jack realizes that he's never happy where he is. In the city he longs for nature, and in nature he longs for the company of people in the city.
Quote #3
All kinds of strange and marvelous things like the weird Ripley situation of a huge tree that's fallen across a creek maybe 500 years ago and's made a bridge thereby. (6.4)
Big Sur is steeped in this kind of history. The vastness of the landscape and the concept of its ancient roots combine to make Jack insignificant, a "crumb of dust" as he'll later say.

Death Penalty to Be Sought in Shooting of Two Students in Winter Haven
Published: Thursday, May 17, 2012 at 10:48 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, May 17, 2012 at 10:48 p.m.
Prosecutors said Thursday they will seek the death penalty for a Winter Haven man accused of killing two Polk State students and wounding a third man.
Winter Haven police said Joshua Davis, 32, opened fire April 25 at three people hanging out at his apartment on Lake Howard Drive East. Christian Rodriguez and Joseph Palacios, both 19, were killed. Esteban Zavala was hit by gunfire but survived. The shooting took place in front of Davis' 7-year-old daughter, according to police.
Davis faces two counts of first-degree murder, one count of attempted first-degree murder and one count of child abuse.

It would be useful to be able to choose in the layout settings page whether the image sizes are width or max-width and height or max-height.
For example a case website has mostly images that are in the 4:3 aspect ratio, for example 300x225, but some that are instead tall, for example 300x400. Having both of these in the same layout makes it currently look weird. With the Site Layout Customizer setting width: 200px all the images are equally wide, but some are far taller than others.
What would be a lot better is to have a possibility to specify in settings that a dimension is a max-value:
Image width [200] pixels [X] max
Leave the first field blank to not specify the width. The second setting has the effect the image will not be stretched bigger in any case and its aspect ratio will be preserved.
Image height [150] pixels [X] max
Image background color [#000000]
Background color to show if image doesn't cover all of the max area. Not used if both dimensions are non-max. Leave empty for transparent (not in use).
This way all 4:3 images will be shrunk to 200x150, and all 300x400 images will be shrunk to 112x150 by the user's web browser. As long as the images are horizontally and vertically centered, this is the best way we can imagine for the layout to look.
The last value above is a background color to be painted "behind" the image in the maximum image size. In the above example all images would be drawn over a 200x150 black <div>. With the 200x150 images the user would see nothing different, but with the 112x150 image user would see it in the middle of a black background - in other words between two 39 px bars. <b>Note: </b> Not to be confused with the current general "background color" setting, which does something very different.
In code these require two ifs for width or max-width and height or max-height in lines 1348-1349, adding an if for the <div> container around the image that is printed on line 1362, and the appropriate settings.

Release Date:
December 11, 2007
U2 is one of the handful of major rock acts that hasn't exploited their back catalog as much as they should. Their early albums have not been remastered since the '80s, there are plenty of early singles and EPs that haven't shown up on CD, B-sides that aren't easily available, and rarities tucked away in the vault. In other words, they're the perfect candidates for a deluxe edition reissue campaign, a project they finally began in a big way in 2007 when they released two deluxe editions of The Joshua Tree. Although this 1987 album was neither their debut nor their first great record, it made perfect sense that The Joshua Tree would be the first deluxe reissue as it was the album that made U2 international superstars -- plus, the group was ready to embark on this reissue campaign just in time for the album's 20th anniversary, perfect timing for all concerned. The two reissues share restored artwork (the original CD release zoomed in on Anton Corbijn's photograph, distorting the four members) and the same bonus CD, which essentially rounds up all the B-sides from the extended CD singles pulled from the album, adding a couple other non-LP rarities along with a handful of previously unreleased outtakes. Of these, the most musically substantial are the B-sides, which are among U2's strongest, boasting such staples "Sweetest Thing" (here in the original 1987 version, not the re-recording for The Best of 1980-1990), "Silver and Gold" (present in both the band's take and Bono's country-blues duet with Ron Wood and Keith Richards for the Sun City album), "Luminous Times (Hold on to Love),""Spanish Eyes," and "Deep in the Heart." The unreleased songs are more demos and mood pieces than finished songs -- although Bono did go into the studio prior to this reissue's release to add vocals to "Wave of Sorrow (Birdland)" -- but their incompleteness is their appeal, as the ideas are still intriguing even if they're not polished. Despite its gloomy title, "Desert of Our Love" is a light, infectious number with slight soul influences that would have been out of step with the rest of The Joshua Tree (yet it points the way toward Rattle and Hum), "Rise Up" is almost to insistent in its desire to be an anthem, "Drunk ChickenAmerica" is an Allen Ginsberg poem delivered like a piece of bad Jim Morrison poetry, while "Beautiful GhostIntroduction to Songs of Experience" is eerie atmosphere, as is "Wave of Sorrow." None is great, but they are interesting, and they help round out the already-known B-sides to make this bonus CD as a truly useful and entertaining expansion of the original album.The bonus material stops with this second disc on the simple deluxe edition -- for the three-disc, super deluxe edition, the entire package is housed in a hardcover book, containing liner notes from band biographer Bill Flanagan, along with previously unpublished Corbijn photos and reminiscences by Bono, the Edge, Adam Clayton, Brian Eno, and Daniel Lanois. Also, there is a DVD contains an 18-song concert, "U2 Live from Paris," which documents a July 4, 1987, show, a brief documentary about their American tour called (what else?) Outside It's America, an alternate version of "With or Without You," and, most interesting of all, the never-seen Neil Jordan-directed video for "Red Hill Mining Town." Even if the 59.98 suggested retail price is a little steep, this book and video are nice additions that will please hardcore U2 fans, of which there are many -- plus, that high price justifies the release of the relatively bare-bones deluxe edition, as it's not only more affordable, it has the truly substantial musical rarities that should be heard by the widest audience. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi

Heavy traffic causes I-91 tie-upJuly 07,2014Heavy traffic delay causes I-91 tie-up
BRATTLEBORO Heavy traffic leaving the state Sunday after a long holiday weekend caused southbound backups of up to 4 miles on Interstate 91.
The Vermont Agency of Transportation is spending $59.5 million to remove and replace four interstate bridges between exits 2 and 3.
Some 20,000 daily drivers that used to have two lanes northbound and two lanes southbound now have one each. On Sunday, that caused tie-ups significant enough to cause authorities to send out press releases advising of the slowdown.
