I Googled your name today, and it was eerie to see that your middle name was Leslie, which is my first name. I was sad to see that you did not make it back from the war. I live outside DC, so I will definitely find your name on the Vietnam Memorial, which I have visited several times.
RIP. Lt Ryder, and thank you for your service and ultimate sacrifice.
Today I recieved your braceletPosted on 1/28/16 - by firstname.lastname@example.com John Leslie Ryder...Gone but Never Forgotten. Today I received your bracelet from a very thoughtful and kind Vietnam Veteran. I work at the Chisholm Post Office and this veteran noticed I wear a KIA bracelet for my brother, SPC George W. Cauley who lost his life in Afghanistan 9 Oct 2009. (rest in peace brother). I also noticed he wore a KIA bracelet for his brother that he lost in Vietnam. We got to talking and he told me about CPT John Leslie Ryder who was from Chisholm, MN and is MIA. I will proudly wear both bracelets in remembrance of both of these brave Heroes and the sacrifices they gave. God Bless and I will Never Forget.MORE

Final Mission of 1LT John L. RyderPosted on 5/31/14 - by firstname.lastname@example.com Force 1LT John L. Ryder was the pilot of an O-1F spotter aircraft on which Special Forces Operations Officer CAPT Barry W. Hilbrich was serving as observer. The two departed Pleiku Airbase on a visual reconnaissance mission on June 9, 1970 south of Ben Het in South Vietnam with an ultimate destination of Camp Dak Saeng. The aircraft was located just north of Pleiku and was in radio contact with the tactical air control center. Their next scheduled radio contact was at 1327 hours, but no further communication was established. Ryder and Hilbrich were reported missing. No immediate visual search could be initiated because of incliment weather, and an electronic search conducted produced no trace of the aircraft of the crew. During the period of June 10-19 an extensive search was carried out extending from Pleiku north to the I Corps boundary and west of the Cambodian border, with no sightings of either aircraft or its two officers. The two were officially classified Missing In Action. [Taken from pownetwork.org]MORE
MIA bracelet for John RyderPosted on 3/27/14 - by CharlotteWhile going through an old jewlry box I came upon the silver metal bracelet I had misplaced many years ago bearing the name of Lt. John Ryder. I wore that bracelet for years and often wondered of his fate. Upon seeing it I was now able to search with the help of the internet. I was hoping the information would have been: found or released. I was so sorry to hear he was never located and his family was unable to put him to rest. I had felt some connection all those years ago, as I am sure many of the wearers of these bracelet felt, I was surprised to see his date of birth was 3 days before mine. Where ever he is, my he rest in peace.MORE

Lest we forgetPosted on 3/23/03 - by Marjorie BallentineI still have the bracelet for John. Have never forgotten him. My husband was also in Viet Nam, (Air Force) and I will never forget the way our young men were treated. They and their families got absolutely no support. It was a horrible time and these young, strong men were doing their duty, dying for it and much worse. We still see the effects today in those same men. Please, as we go to war again, let us pray and support these men and their families.MORE

Last Call?Posted on 2/23/03 - by J. FerronI believe I was one of the last people to talk to John. He and I were checking out of the FAC shack together at Pleiku. He was going west and I was going north. We were both solo, flying our own small Cessna's. After takeoff I heard him check in with a call that he was entering a hot area. I called him and wished him luck and offered to have a burger with him again soon. He acknowledged. Neither of us returned to Pleiku that day but I landed at my destination, John was never seen again. That day there were thunderstorms in the area and through some mix-up no one missed the fact that John was overdue coming back into the base. By the time it was discovered he was not in, the storms prevented a search and rescue.MORE
John was a fun, clever and eager guy. At the Academy he was like many of us, a tough competitor in sports and ready to do what the country needed.
Rumors had it that a grenade in John's plane got hit and exploded. The search area was too large to be effective, too. Those who knew him pray for him. He was too young and too good.

Remembering Our Lost BrotherPosted on 9/6/02 - by Jim Meade MORE
My First HeroPosted on 12/10/01 - by D PopeI believe it was 1972 when I first bought a bracelet with John Ryder's name on it. I wore it continuously until it wore the hair off of my arm and finally broke in two from the wear. It was personal to me and is still to this day. I watched the papers when the soldiers began to return home for his name but found out that that the small hole in my bracelet meant that John Ryder was actually MIA and chances were slim.MORE
Tomorrow I go to Washington, DC for the first time in more than 30 years. The only thing on my agenda other than work is the WALL. I have looked forward to this moment for years and dreaded it at the same time. Having grown up during the sixties, I remember the turmoil that our country went through during those tough years.
What I regret the most are the parades we never held, the banners we never flew, the acknowledgement these young men never received.
I graduated from high school the day before the date on the bracelet so there will always be a reminder for me. On this day, I would like to thank John Ryder's family and friends for his service and his sacrifice. May God bless you all.

Can spirituality promote a healthier physical life for your family? Recent medical studies indicate that spiritual people are less prone to self-destructive behaviors (suicide, smoking, and drug and alcohol abuse, for example), and have less stress and a greater total life satisfaction.
Much of the research linking spiritual and physical health has involved elderly patients; however, the data offer a glimpse into a possible tie between a spiritual life and good health for people of all ages.
Although spirituality has been shown to reduce depression, improve blood pressure, and boost the immune system, religious beliefs should not interfere with the medical care kids receive.
So what exactly is spirituality and how can it enhance your family's health?
Doctors and scientists once avoided the study of spirituality in connection to medicine, but more recent findings have made some take a second look. Studies show that religion and faith can help to promote good health and fight disease by:
Although research on kids hasn't been done, many studies focusing on adults point to the positive effects of spirituality on medical outcome:
Religious and spiritual beliefs are an important part of how many people deal with life's joys and hardships. Faith can give people a sense of purpose and guidelines for living.
When families face tough situations, including health problems, their religious beliefs and practices can help them fight feelings of helplessness, restore meaning and order to life situations, and help them regain a sense of control. For some families, spirituality can be a powerful and important source of strength.
Medical studies have confirmed that spirituality can have a profound effect on mental states. In a study of men who were hospitalized, nearly half rated religion as helpful in coping with their illness. A second study showed that the more religious patients were, the more quickly they recovered from some disorders. A third study revealed that high levels of hope and optimism, key factors in fighting depression, were found among those who strictly practiced their religion.
Attending organized religious services may help some families connect with their spiritual values, but it's not the only way. Less traditional paths also can help kids and parents find spiritual meaning.
To foster spirituality within your own family, you may want to examine your own values. Ask yourself: What is important to me? How well do my daily activities mirror my values? Do I neglect issues that matter to me because I'm busy spending time on things that matter less?
Here are other suggestions to start your family's spiritual journey:
This search can be conducted on your own or as part of a larger group — a religious community, friends, or your own family. Making a spiritual journey might help you and your family live a healthier life, both emotionally and physically.

Skip to comments.Chris Wallace Offered Political Asylum On Hardball
Posted on 03/24/2008 5:51:29 PM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest
I count Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace among the fairest and most incisive interviewers in the business, and hope his tenure at Fox News is a long one. Anyone who can relentlessly cross-exam Mitt Romney on his changed position on abortion the way Wallace did a while back, then turn around and provoke Bill Clinton to near the point of taking a poke at him, is doing his job and playing no favorites. But should Wallace ever wish a change of venue, never fear: MSNBC apparently can find a place for him.
Wallace made some news when, appearing on this past Friday's Fox & Friends, he criticized the hosts for dwelling longer than Chris thought appropriate on Obama's comment that his grandmother was a "typical white person."
On this evening's Hardball, Chris Matthews devoted a segment to the exchange. Eugene Robinson, the affable WaPo columnist and MSNBC political analyst, suggested that refuge awaited Wallace should he need it.
View video.
(Excerpt) Read more at newsbusters.org ...
Chris Wallace offered political asylum on Hardball ping to Today show list.
Chris Matthews = typical MSM liberal suck-up.
Wallace is smart enough to know that msnbc is a dying entity, whereas Fox (or more appropriately, it's parent company News Corp) is the place to be.
get Mika in there to put Chrissy in his place
I predict Wallace is gone from fox by Oct 1st.
Because of his remarks on Fox & Friends or for other reasons?
I'd say given those remarks on Fox & Friends (and I saw it live) that there are other reasons that we haven't heard about as well. Just a guess.
I like Chris Wallace. He'll have an excellent, long-lived career mopping up after his Daddy (Mike Wallace.)
"Clean up in Aisle Five. Bring the BIG bucket!" LOL!
Who will decide: Fox or Wallace?
MSNBC? Might as well put him on a milk carton.
Wallace is like many in the media. They start believing their own egos. He came across like a pompous arse last week. But he has scored some points with the elitist race-guilted leftists.
I would'nt squirt water in Wallaces' ear if his brain was on fire.........
I had been listening before Chris delivered his criticism and he obviously had missed some of the show..I do think Wallace can be balanced and give it to both sides..but I really thought he went too far with his critique. He came off as unfair to Fox and Friends.
I thought Wallace was arrogant and out of line. This was a legitimate discussion. Seemed he was trying to score points with the left and with Obama.
Oh Wallace will probably leave. Like Kiran Gentry did. He'll leave, but it will be because Fox wrote him out of what he wanted.
And I guess the thing that bothered me most was him allowing Bill Clinton to poke his bony finger on his knee. I would have pushed that hand away and told him no touching.
But then I have some guy tendencies.
I'm neither here nor there when it comes to Chris Wallace, but he didn't provoke Clinton. The rapist did exactly what he planned to do, and it provided Democrats with the opportunity to assail Fox news and send a message to any news agency not planning to kowtow to Hillary and the DNC. Democrats are afraid of Fox and any news source they don't completely manipulate.
Chris Wallace In the Tank For Obama?
Vanity Posted on 03/21/2008 11:33:58 AM EDT by Retired Chemist
Chris Wallace really went after the Fox and Friends crew this morning for spending a too much time discussing Obama's just a typical white person remark. He needs to move over to MSNBC.
Chris Wallace is a liberal just like his dad, but, believe it or not, he's actually a worse journalist.
Any analysis of his questions will reveal his liberal bent. He simply doesn't ask the questions a conservative would. Why? Because the questions never dawn on him. And why is that? Well, first and foremost, he's not very bright. The host of any talk show sets the upper intelligence level of the show. The lower the host's IQ, the lower the level of intellectual debate. In Chris Wallace's case, it is quite low. He is, in fact, a drag on the show. Just compare the quality of the show when someone like Brit Hume is hosting it. There is no comparison.
Wallace, in addition, fails to ask good questions because he doesn't analyze issues the way conservatives do, and thus he never gains the insight needed to ask the really good questions.
Chris Wallace is also a bad journalist. His show almost always deals with last week's issue, not the coming week's news. It is backward-looking instead of forward-looking. It is thus always the behind the curve. He's never on the crest of the wave.
I would add that Chris Wallace is where he is because of who he is — the son of Mike Wallace — not what he is.
Who's Kiran Gentry?
Michael Frazier
Why do you say this? I don't believe that defending Obama will hurt him. Fox News has been moving steadily leftward for several years.
As I was reading the comments here I thought the same thing, Brit is my man, honest, been there, truthful. Ok
and I think he is cute. I do not like Chris Wallace and his liberalism will never fade.
My apologies. Kiran Chetry.
That walkout was done with humor. I am sure there is tension after Wallace's unfair criticism.nevertheless.
Fox and Friends are three creepy people (a beauty queen, a newscaster and a sportscaster) pretending to be cutting edge journalist. Give me a break. If Fox fires Wallace and sides with Ducey and Carlson (airhead extraordinaires), then Fox is just as bad as MSNBC.
I often get the impression that Chris Wallace is preoccupied justifying his existence. Like that silly "Player of the Week" segment that reduces the panel discussion by several minutes. He also has a habit of dumping cold water on a discussion by insisting on reading something he wrote on his legal pad days before. It's as if what's happening right in front of him is secondary; what matters instead is what he had planned. He's not smart enough to know what to do with spontaneity.
True. I thought he sounded like a pompous ass. Afterall, the Fox & Friends crew don't tell him how to conduct his show. He had no business scolding them for the content of theirs.
Therefore he sounded like Chris Wallace. I never could understand why he ended up in that position when there are any number of people who would do a better job.
What really rankles about this piece/clip is that apparently it doesn't dawn on Chrissie Matthews that maybe he should get a clue about adding some balance. Oh, I forgot: nobody would ever go on an MSNBC show and criticize the lack of balance.
This is the kiss of death, Matthews SOFT BALL show is poison. This shows you how Matthews views Crissey = another softball throwing liberal.
I think he lead clinton right into his tirade!

The Foolproof Freezer Cookbook
by Ghillie James
Quick Facts• Who wrote it: Ghillie James • Who published it: Kyle Books • Number of recipes: Over 100 • Recipes for right now: Applesauce, Spicy Carrot Tomato Chorizo and Cilantro Soup, Pork Chops with Mustard Apples and Cider, Lamb and Prune Tagine, Eggplant and Lentil Moussaka, Quick Double Chocolate Sheet Cake • Other highlights: This isn't the first freezer cookbook I've seen but it's the most appealing. It has a great chicken stock recipe—essential for anyone with room to store stock—but also some really original recipes using frozen foods, like a Pork Belly with Cracklings, Fennel and Shallots. The photographs by Tara Fisher, a UK-based photographer with whom I was not familiar, are bright and fresh. Nothing is over-styled so all the recipes look approachable and yet elegant. A partly eaten Chicken Ham and Tarragon pie is encased in ripples of puff pastry, with an invitation to dive in. This is a testament to the entire team behind the book. There are also several helpful short sections on how to use up gluts of fruit, how to store and thaw properly, and the top leftovers to freeze. Without a doubt, this is a book to give to yourself if you foresee cooking ahead with frozen fall bounty, either for yourself and your family or for others who need an extra meal here and there. • Who would enjoy this book? New parents, people who have friends having babies or taking care of someone who cannot cook for themselves, nice neighbors, entertainers who want to hang with their guests rather than cook, cooks who like to store up for the winter and have a sizable freezer.
Find the book at your local library, independent bookstore, or Amazon: The Foolproof Freezer Cookbook: Prepare-ahead meals, Stress-free entertaining, Making the Most of Excess Fruits and Vegetables, Feeding the Family the Modern Way by Ghillie JamesRelated: New Baby Taco Box (Images: Sara Kate Gillingham-Ryan)

Albert Maysles
Jump to
Alongside his brother David, Albert Maysles became one of the chief exponents of the cinema verité school of documentary filmmaking. After starting his documentary career with films about mental health in Russia and student revolt in Poland, the Maysles brothers joined forces with Richard Leacock, Robert Drew and D.A. Pennebaker to make a series of films, most notably "Primary" (1960), which followed the Democratic primaries between John Kennedy and Hubert Humphrey in Wisconsin, and revolutionized the way documentaries are made. Turning to music, he directed "What's Happening! The Beatles in the USA" (1964) and later made the controversial Rolling Stones film, "Gimme Shelter" (1970), which documented the band's headlining performance at the violence-plagued Altamont Free Concert and captured the fatal stabbing of a concertgoer. In the following decade, the Maysles courted more controversy with "Grey Gardens" (1976), a disturbing look at co-dependency between a mother and daughter that was later turned into a Broadway musical and an Emmy-winning HBO film. Following the death of brother David in 1987, Maysles earned an Oscar nomination for "LaLee's Kin: The Legacy of Cotton" (2001) while making cable films covering everything from abortion and hospice care to Paul McCartney's 9/11 benefit concert in New York City, solidifying his status as one of documentary filmmaking's most celebrated pioneers. He died of natural causes at the age of 88 on March 5, 2015.

? About period and Pregnacy
Comments (10)
It can certainly happen as ovulation occurs before your period would arrive. If youd like to up your chances of conception, consider purchasing a copy of "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" by Toni Weschler and learn how to chart your cycles to pinpoint ovulation. :)
Some people just need a high five.
In the face.
With a chair.
I agree with Cowgirl about getting the book TCOYF. It has helped me understand my "cycle" so much better! Like you, I still don't have my first ppaf. I'm not using any form of protection, however. Right now my cycle is anovulatory. If you look at my chart, you can clearly see that I don't ovulate. Quite certainly you can get pg while bf and never see your AF. This is because you can ovulate and not even know it, dtd around that fertile time and get pg! :) Thus, no af! This happens to many woman, in fact, because they don't know when they are fertile, or potentially fertile. When you chart (take your morning basal body temp (bbt) and examine your cervical fluids daily, you can see where you are in your cycle and if you are fertile and about to ovulate. Only taking your temp will not help, you must also check you CM (cervical mucus). The reason is, the day AFTER you ovulate, your temp will rise and stay up for a few days (like 10-17days-ish) and then when you start AF it will go back down. When you are fertile and approaching ovulation your CM will likely turn into what they call "egg white cervical mucus" or ewcm, which is the MOST fertile good stuff. :) Aaaaanyhow, definitely, definitely get the book! Even if you haven't started your period, it will still help! I MIGHT have ovulated yesterday because I've had a few days of ewcm and then my temp went up today. If it stays up for the next 3 days then that tell me I o'd! I will either start my period in a couple week or I'm PG! OR, if it goes back down and stays down, then that means I'm just having random patches of fertile quality cervical mucus because my body is TRYING to ovulate, but the hormones needed to do that are surpressed do to bfing a lot. (I bf about 5 times a day and 3 times at night). Hope this helps! Good luck. :) Here's my chart: [url=www.fertilityfriend.com/home/3bff35][img]www.fertilityfriend.com/home/3bff35...[/img]

No pill here, but I got pregnant 5 days after having my IUD out. Lucky me!?!?
KT - wife to Scott, mama to Rebekah, and step-mom to Katrina
I got pregnant with #2 without ever having a period. I didn't know I was pregnant til I started showing at 12 weeks!
Denise, Jimmy's wife for 9 years; mother to Andrew 7, Stephen 6, Julia 4, Philip 19 months, baby #5 in April... it's a boy!
Just remember that FIRST you ovulate, THEN you get a period (or you get pregnan), so yes yes yes. If you are having unprotected sex, you can get pregnant.
Proud mommy of Atticus!
Why yes, I do still breastfeed at bedtime (.)(.)
By seven months (I couldn't breastfeed, I pumped for 7 weeks) I still hadn't gotten my period. I was put on a regular birth control pill to try and get regulated. After a few months and nothing happening I just decided to let my body do what it will naturally. I got off the pill and a month later had my first real period. I took that as a sign that my body was ready to be pregnant again so I started taking daily ovulation tests. A few weeks later I found an ovulation and we tried and were successful! Unless your hormones are off your body will start working again when it is ready. You can test for ovulation because you can ovulate without getting a period (a fertility specialist told me this). Definetly talk to your doctor if you are worried :) Good luck!

THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) - In a first victory for Slobodan Milosevic, the U.N. war crimes tribunal excluded testimony Wednesday from the prosecution's senior investigator, saying it was based on inadmissible hearsay.
But in a personal setback, the former Yugoslav president complained the Dutch government denied his wife a visa for a weekend visit, and asked the three tribunal judges to intervene.
Kevin Curtis, the prosecution's chief war crimes investigator for Kosovo, was due to testify about "the killing sites" where thousands of Kosovo Albanians were allegedly murdered by Serb forces during the 1999 war in the province.
But the judges ruled his testimony would be irrelevant, since he was repeating stories he had heard from others.
Milosevic chided the prosecution for preparing what he said were hundreds more such statements.
"You will probably get down to the prosecutor's driver or a hairdresser," Milosevic said, before presiding judge Richard May cut him short: "Mr. Milosevic, we are with you. We are going to exclude it."

THE IMPETUS for yesterday's $765 million settlement of the NFL concussion lawsuit ultimately turned out to be the clock.
It was time. With its unlimited army of high-priced lawyers and nearly $10 billion in annual revenue, the NFL easily had the wherewithal to let this thing drag on and on and on in the courts.
Even if the class-action suit managed to make it to trial, it would have been 5 or 6 years before there would have been a verdict. And a yearlong appeal would have followed that regardless of who was the victor.

EarthServer Project goes into the second roundSubmitted by jsanz on Tue, 2015-07-21 20:51.
The EarthServer initiative is establishing Agile Analytics on Petabyte data cubes as a commodity.
Pushing the boundaries of Big Earth Data services, the intercontinental Earthserver initiative enables researchers to browse, access, and analyze massive multi-dimensional data sets from a wide range of sources. Big Earth Data at your fingertips - this is the vision of EarthServer for unleashing the potential of Big Data through a disruptive paradigm shift in technology:
- from isolat-ed silos of data with disparate functionality towards a single, uniform information space;
- from a difficult, artificial differentiation between data and metadata access to unified retrieval;
- from zillions of files towards few whatever-size datacubes;
- from limited functionality to the freedom of asking anything, anytime, any server in a peer network of data centers worldwide.
In phase 1, EarthServer has established open ad-hoc analytics on massive Earth Science data, based on and extending the leading Array Database technology, rasdaman. According to EU Commission and inde pendent reviewers, rasdaman will "significantly transform the way that scientists in different areas of Earth Science will be able to access and use data in a way that hitherto was not possible" as demonstrated by portals with over 230 TB of spatio-temporal data. EarthServer "with no doubt has been shaping the Big Earth Data landscape through the standardization activities within OGC, ISO and beyond".
Now phase 2 of EarthServer has started, with an even more ambitious goal: data centers will provide at least 1 Petabyte of 3-D and 4-D datacubes. Technology advance will allow real-time scaling of such Petabyte cubes, and intercontinental fusion. This power of data handling will be wrapped into direct visual interaction based on multi-dimensional visualization techniques, in particular: NASA World Wind. Following the motto "a cube says more than a million images" EarthServer has set out to redefine the Big Data service landscape even more.
This way, critical support will be given to Copernicus and the Sentinel satellite data: a single 3D x/y/t datacube will be constructed for each satellite instrument so that millions of images form a single, simple data space, irrespective of its size resulting. Likewise, each climate dataset will form a single 4D datacube. Access to these cubes is through a clean-slate standards-based query language on n-D grids, OGC WCPS. This yields the agility that any query can be sent at any time, without admin intervention on server side. Multiple cubes can be combined based on parallel, distributed processing. Altogether, the WCPS language allows navigation, extraction, aggregation, and fusion of any-size space/time data cubes using simple, yet powerful query operators.
The consortium consists of Jacobs University (Germany, coordinator), rasdaman GmbH (Germany, SME), , Plymouth Marine Laboratory (UK), European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (UK), MEEO s.r.l. (Italy, SME), and CITE S.A. (Greece, SME). Additionally, two high-profile international organizations participate: NASA (US) and National Computational Infrastructure (Australia).

American Geographical Society Announces Endorsement of the "Geo for All" InitiativeSubmitted by jsanz on Wed, 2015-07-15 13:04.
It is our great pleasure to share the excellent development of the American Geographical Society's endorsement of the "Geo for All Initiative", developed by the International Cartographic Association (ICA) and the Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo). "Geo for All" aims to provide expertise and support for the establishment of Open Source Geospatial Laboratories and Research Centers across the world for supporting development of open-source geospatial software technologies, training, and expertise.
Established in 1851, the American Geographical Society is the oldest professional geographical organization in the United States. It is recognized world-wide as a pioneer in geographical research and education in geography for over 163 years. The mission of AGS is to advance geographic knowledge and the recognition of its importance in the contemporary world. AGS promotes the use of geography in business, government, science, and education with a goal to enhance the nation's geographic literacy so as to engender sound public policy, national security, and human well-being worldwide. AGS is the only organization focused on bringing together academics, business people, those who influence public policy (including leaders in local, state and federal government, not-for-profit organizations and the media), and the general public for the express purpose of furthering the understanding of the role of geography in our lives. AGS provides leadership to frame the national discussion of the growing importance of geography and geo-spatial tools. The Society maintains its headquarters in Brooklyn Heights, New York.
More details at http://americangeo.org/7142015-american-geographical-society-announces-endorsement-of-the-geo-for-all-initiative/
This endorsement from the American Geographical Society comes at an important phase in our development. We crossed our 100th lab milestone last week with UCL as our 101st Open Source Geospatial Lab bringing together staff and students from the Department of Civil, Environmental and Geomatic Engineering, the Centre for Advanced Spatial Analysis, the Department of Archaeology and the Department of Geography at UCL . Details at https://www.ucl.ac.uk/gis/OSGeo
Right now at Como in Italy at FOSS4G-Europe http://europe.foss4g.org/2015/ , our colleagues are meeting to discuss our future expansion plans in particular for discussing GeoForAll expansion to thousands of schools globally and expand our teacher training initiatives with collaboration from governments , industry and universities globally.
This endorsement from the American Geographical Society is a great boost to all our "Geo for All" colleagues worldwide. "Geo for All" started from nothing and it is 100 percent the efforts of all our colleagues from OSGeo, ICA and ISPRS who joined together on a common education mission that made this all possible. I am grateful to each and every colleague for their hardwork and dedication for our mission for building a better world and better future for all our future generations.
This is just the start and we look forward to working with all for making education and opportunities accessible to all.
Best wishes,

The Sixth ACM SIGSPATIAL International Workshop on GeoStreamingSubmitted by jsanz on Sat, 2015-07-11 07:13.
The Sixth ACM SIGSPATIAL International Workshop on GeoStreaming (IWGS 2015) in conjunction with the 23rd ACM SIGSPATIAL International Conference on Advances in Geographic Information Systems (ACM SIGSPATIAL GIS 2015)
November 3, 2015, Seattle, Washington
Aim and Scope:
We are entering the era of "big data" thanks to the exponential growth and availability of structured and unstructured data, among which a large amount are real-time streaming data emitted from sensors, imagery and mobile devices. In addition to the temporal nature of stream data, various sources provide stream data that has geographical locations and/or spatial extents, such as geotagging twitter streams, mobile GPS location streams, spatial temporal image streams, and so on. On one hand, this amount of streamed data has been a major propeller to advance the state of the art in geographic information systems. On the other hand, the ability to process, mine, and analyze that massive amount of data in a timely manner prevented researchers from making full use of the incoming stream data. The geostreaming term refers to the ongoing effort in academia and industry to process, mine and analyze stream data with geographic and spatial information.
This workshop addresses the research communities in both stream processing and geographic information systems. It brings together experts in the field from academia, industry and research labs to discuss the lessons they have learned over the years, to demonstrate what they have achieved so far, and to plan for the future of "GeoStreaming". We encourage researchers from academia and industry to submit papers that highlight the value of GeoStream data processing, analyzing, and mining on topics that include, but not limited to the following:
- Spatio-temporal stream systems
- Spatio-temporal stream query processing
- Real-time mining of spatial and spatio-temporal data
- Location-aware stream systems
- Privacy preserving in mobile object databases
- Traffic monitoring and prediction
- Geosensing technologies and their application
- Geosampling and probabilistic spatial stream query processing
- Real-time geographical information extraction and retrieval
- Geosocial networks
- Main memory and/or real time indexing of moving objects
- Real-time spatial data visualization
- Spatio-temporal stream processing on cloud
- Participatory spatio-temporal data streams and Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) systems

Call for Papers: 5th International Workshop on Mobile Entity Localization and Tracking in GPS-less EnvironmentsSubmitted by jsanz on Fri, 2015-07-10 08:10.
5th International Workshop on Mobile Entity Localization and Tracking in GPS-less Environments
co-located with ACM SIGSPATIAL 2015
November 3, 2015 -- Seattle, Washington, USA
The mobile and sensing research communities have made remarkable progress in location sensing and activity detection in the recent years. However, many challenging problems still remain, including location and activity recognition accuracy, power management, effective sensor fusion, spatial environment representation, labor-less environmental surveys, crowd computing, and big data analytics of real-time and historical semantic locations and activities. We are soliciting papers and extended abstracts of up to four proceeding pages long. All contributions that deal with the scientific analysis of location and activity data sets are welcome. The papers for the workshop may include previously published or submitted work.
- Workshop Scope:
- The workshop specifically solicits research including but not limited to the following topics: Algorithms: Heterogeneous sensor data fusion for mapping and localization, probabilistic and statistical inferences, optimization, signal processing, and machine learning techniques for MELT problems, analysis of trade-offs of performance metrics (e.g. accuracy vs. time and cost), collaborative localization and mapping techniques, ad-hoc or opportunistic localization and mapping, efficient fingerprinting techniques, location data mining and prediction, location data acquisition and interpretation, energy-efficient localization and tracking methods, big data analytics, activity recognition using multi-modal sensor data, real-time and historical semantic localization;
- Representations:
- Indoor map representations and automatic region or outline extractions, local and global maps and locations, geographical vs. topological maps, sparse vs. dense maps, map annotations, point of interest graphs, dynamic maps with real-time information, map markup languages or standardization, semantic location extraction and representation;
- Systems:
- Localization systems on smartphones or mobile platforms, integrated with heterogeneous sensors (Wifi signal strength, inertial sensing, compass, odometry, etc.), efficient and accurate mapping systems using 2D or 3D cameras, active lighting or laser range finders;
- User Interfaces:
- Effective interface for entering and presenting maps and locations, notes or annotations for point of interests, innovative mechanisms for representing topological relations or maps with partial geographic information, efficient survey and mapping techniques;
- Applications:
- Emergence personal localization, vehicular tracking in GPS-less areas, sports and entertainments, fleet management; asset, yard or inventory tracking, location-based recommendation or activity management.
- Paper Submission Details:
- Authors are invited to submit a short paper or an extended abstract up to four pages of new or previously published work. Manuscripts should be submitted in PDF format and formatted using the ACM camera-ready templates available at http://www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/template.html. All submissions will be refereed for quality and relevance by the Program Committee.
Submission URL: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=melt2015
The proceedings of the workshops are expected to be published jointly with the conference proceedings and will appear in the ACM Digital Library. One author per accepted workshop contribution (paper, poster, demo) is required to register for the workshop and the conference, as well as attend the workshop to present the accepted submission.

Sensors driver sample for geolocation devices
The geolocation sample driver demonstrates a sensor driver for a Global Positioning System (GPS) device. This driver does not connect to hardware; otherwise, it is fully compliant with best practices for building a UMDF sensor driver. Instead of sending real coordinates, this sample simulates a sensor that issues altitude, latitude, longitude, and other simulated GPS data. In addition, this sample issues a timestamp that is useful when testing and debugging.
This sample serves three purposes: First, it demonstrates the minimal functionality required by a UMDF sensor driver. Second, it provides a skeleton on which you can build a working driver. Third, it includes support for the Radio Management API that provides notifications of radio-state changes for devices like a GPS.

You Know Lyrics[Bridge Young Jeezy]
And why the fuck he ain't in the feds already?
And why that motherfucker ain't dead already?
And why you ain't ran through his bread already?
(I'm the motherfucking, man, nigga, all these hoes know it)
I ain't with the game, nigga, all my folks know it
(Ain't a thing for my gang, nigga, all my bros know it)
Never fronted me a thing, nigga, I'mma pay for it
And you know, you know, you know
You motherfuckers better act like you know
Time to talk to talk shit, they don't wanna see Snow
You know, yeah
And you know, you know, you know
(You motherfuckers better act like you know
Yeah, these other niggas cool, but they ain't Loso)
You know
[Verse 1: Young Jeezy]
You know you doing something right when they gossiping every night
Back in [?] niggas caught up in all the hype
Niggas don't know shit about shit
Let these motherfuckers know every chance I get
Bitch, I'm self made
See, I pried myself then I got paid
Then I copped me a Lex, then I got laid
[?] tried to catch me slipping, I almost got sprayed
They ain't playing around here, this ain't the arcade
See, half of these niggas really bitch made
Talking like they open keys with a switchblade
Put 'em on Netfix where them movies are
Fuck you know about bricks? You a movie star
[Verse 2: Fabolous]
You niggas trying to get noticed, I'm here to be remembered
Came through in June, they still talking in December
Ain't no weak links over here
We all solid, nigga, we the Cuban links over here
We don't blink over here
We've seen it all and y'all ain't seen shit yet
Little niggas trying on my shoes, they don't fit yet
When you get shit, guess that's how shit get
Trigger finger to your pussies, get your shit wet
Straight up, I ain't never been a slouch, nigga
And your wifey just hit me; ouch, nigga
Putting footprints all up in the couch, nigga
Shit these shoes cost more than the couch, nigga

Dojo's Industrial-Strength Grid Widget
In almost any application that's complex enough to require a database for persistent storage, there is a need to render data in a tabular format for display or interaction. Although a seemingly simple task, it quickly becomes quite involved once you introduce the need to sort columns, reorder columns, account for editing the contents of cells and managing pagination. As you might expect, this is one of those problems that has been solved so many times that commoditized solutions, such as Dojo's grid widget, now are available for use. After all, you'd much rather concentrate on actually building out the interesting parts of your app than creating and maintaining the infrastructure that holds it all together, right?
If you've been following along with my previous LJ articles on Dojo (see Resources), you should have a good idea of how to get Dojo up and running with minimal hassle using AOL's Content Delivery Network (or if you prefer, get it from the official Dojo Web site). As a reminder, the minimal page template is basically an HTML page with a script tag and a dojo.addOnLoad block that waits until all cross-domain loading has completed before it executes in order to guarantee that dependencies inside the code block have been met before it executes. You may recall that the skeleton for this page looks something like this:
<html> <head> <title>Minimal Development Template</title> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://o.aolcdn.com/dojo/1.2/dojo/dojo.xd.js"> </script> <script type="text/javascript"> dojo.addOnLoad(function() { /* Add Dojo-dependent logic here to avoid race conditions */ }); </script> </head> <body> </body> </html>
Prior to the Dojo 1.2 release, the grid was under heavy development and largely in a state of flux. Although its API still is subject to change, the 1.2 release substantially firmed it up, and aside from accessibility considerations, it is expected to remain intact. Bottom line: don't let the dojox namespace or previous experiences with the grid prior to 1.2 scare you off; it's ready for prime time. Although at the time of this writing, Dojo version 1.3 is just about to be released, the code examples reference version 1.2 and work just fine. There should be minimal, if any, changes necessary to update the examples to version 1.3.
Now I'm going to move to putting the grid widget to work, so consult a reference such as Dojo: The Definitive Guide (O'Reilly, June 2008) or on-line documentation at the Dojo Campus if you need a quick refresher.
The grid widget is necessarily data-centric and builds directly upon the abstractions offered by the toolkit's robust data APIs, so a very brief introduction is helpful for setting that context. In Dojo parlance, the abstraction that the data APIs offer is a store that contains items, where a store can implement a particular subset of the four dojo.data APIs:
Read: APIs for querying items in a store.
Identify: APIs for uniquely identifying items in a store.
Write: APIs for creating, modifying and deleting items in a store.
Notification: APIs for triggering event handlers when items in a store are created, modified or deleted.
The toolkit comes stocked with two handy store implementations that are bundled into the dojo.data module: the ItemFileReadStore and the ItemFileWriteStore. The ItemFileReadStore implements the Read and Identity APIs, while the ItemFileWriteStore implements all four of these APIs. Be aware, however, that the dojox.data module contains a plethora of additional data modules for common tasks that you will want to leverage to your advantage; interfacing with comma-separated value (CSV) files, Flickr, Amazon's S3 service, OPML files and Atom content are just a few of the handy implementations available (Figures 1 and 2).
In general, you provide data to an ItemFileReadStore or ItemFileWriteStore in one of three ways:
By feeding it a file containing JSON data that meets a particular structure.
By feeding it a JavaScript object conforming to the same structure as the JSON file data.
By programmatically creating new items for the store.
Let's briefly consider examples that illustrate these operations. The grid widget simply reflects whatever data is in the store that backs it, so understanding how to manipulate data stores is essential to controlling what ultimately appears in a grid widget (Listing 1).

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

Many of you will know Phil Kirk as the man for whom we named Kirk Hall at the Central Library. Or as this generation's downtown Kansas City real estate developer par excellence. Or a genial figure at many of our Library programs and special events.
He was much, much more. His family, and notably his father Jim, were prominent in local business and philanthropy. Jim Kirk's office furniture from Kirk Welding ended up in One North at the Central Library as part of our soft seating there. Mike Kirk, Phil's brother, has been an active supporter of the Library.
