Keeping Track of Change
For years, software developers have been keeping track of all their changes to programs they are developing with what they call "version control" software. However, even competent developers have sometimes found it too troublesome to use these tools except where they find it absolutely necessary, and so it is not surprising that very few non-developers have used these tools at all.
The reason that they find these tools so difficult to use is that the rules for how to use them are written with the most complicated situations in mind. For most personal use of these tools, that is like learning to fly a jet aircraft in order to drive a car. There is an easier way.
The assumption that makes everyone do so much extra work is that more than one person will be trying to modify the file at the same time. For your own personal files, or for keeping track of changes to system files when you are the only system administrator, that is not an issue.
The standard program for doing version control under Linux (and most other versions of Unix) is GNU's RCS, which stands for Revision Control System. It has many options, but you hardly need to know about any of them to make good use of it. You can treat RCS as one of the simplest tools on your system.
In fact, you can keep track of all the changes that you ever make to a file with one command. Run the command ci -l filename each time you make a change to the file ("ci" stands for "check in"; you are "checking in your changes"). The first time you do this, you will be given the option to describe the file:
$ ci -l foo foo,v <-- foo enter description, terminated with single '.' or end of file: NOTE: This is NOT the log message! >
You are not required to describe the file, but you can if you like. Then type a . character on its own line, or press ^D on an empty line.
When you have made a change to the file, you need type only one command to tell RCS to keep track of that change for you:
$ ci -l foo foo,v <-- foo new revision: 1.2; previous revision: 1.1 enter log message, terminated with single '.' or end of file: >
Here, you may wish to describe the change you have just made, especially if you think you will want to examine the change at some future time, but it is not required.
Remembering that single command is enough to prepare you for disaster. The rest of this short article will show you a few easy tricks that make RCS a little more comfortable to use, and help you learn how to recover from disaster.
If you think running one command each time you finish editing a file is still too much work, we can make it even easier for you! (Laziness is a virtue if it causes you to work smarter instead of harder.)
We'll use a shell script. You can create a file in your own "bin" directory (if your account is on a computer shared with other people) or in /usr/local/bin (if you are using your own computer). Whichever directory you choose must be listed in your PATH. To make it easy to type, we'll call it et, short for edit text.
#!/bin/bash # et - Edit Text file, while keeping # track of changes with RCS [ -z "$1" ] && { # No file specified on the command line echo "Edit what file?" exit 1 } ${EDITOR-vi} $1 # Only check in the file if it exists. [ -f $1 ] && ci -l $1
Type that into a file named et, without making any typos. Then run the command chmod +x et to make the file executable. Now, you will be able to run et filename to edit and then automatically check in your changes.
The #!/bin/bash line tells Linux this script is a shell script that is interpreted by the bash shell, which comes as a standard part of every Linux distribution. All the other lines starting with a # character are comments, and are ignored by bash.
If you decide that you will never want to include a description of the changes you have made, you can change the last line of the script to
[ -f $1 ] && echo "." | ci -l $1
The reason for the [ -f $1 ] part is so that if you type et mistake, and then quit the editor without saving the file, you won't get error messages when ci finds that there is no file for it to check in.
The ${EDITOR-vi} part runs your favorite editor, or if you have not chosen a favorite editor, it defaults to the old standard vi editor. You can choose a default other than vi; pico, jed, joe, Emacs, and other editors are all possibilities. For example:
${EDITOR-jed} $1
will run jed, unless you have chosen some other favorite editor.
To choose your favorite editor, which will apply to all programs that want you to choose an editor, not just et, you will need to set the EDITOR environment variable to the name of the editor you want to use. If you are using a bourne shell, such as bash, zsh, pdksh, ksh, or sh, you will want to add a line like the following to the file .profile in your home directory:
EDITOR=jed ; export EDITOR
If you use the C shell (csh or tcsh), you will want to add a line like the following to the file .login in your home directory:
setenv EDITOR jed

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

About this recipe: This chutney is great way of making use of marrow when in-season. It's simmered with apples, shallots, sultanas, garlic, sugar, vinegar, ginger, mustard and chillies. It's perfect served alongside meat or on a cheeseboard.
Learn how to sterilise jars two ways with our handy step-by-step guide and video.
I made this for the first time yesterday (it's my first ever try at chutney). I tried it before putting it in the last jar and it was really tasty. Sweet and slightly hot, with a good tang. I can only assume it will improve with age. I hope so, as I'm planning to have this on Christmas day! I'll definitely be making this again as we nearly always have a glut of courgettes and marrows. Update after Christmas: It was absolutely fabulous. Not only did we have this on Christmas day, but I gave jars of it away as presents and everyone has commented on how good it was. Thanks so much for this recipe, I'm sure I'll be making it every year now. - 11 Sep 2014

I think Google has something fundamental here. It much more closely mimics the way we compartmentalize our interactions with people in the real world rather than dumping everything into one giant bin the way Facebook does.
Yes I really like it so far. Now goggles problem is to get everyone on it that's scared Google is trying to take over the world.
I can see me making more use of this than I ever have of Facebook. Whether the bulk of the Facebook crowd comes over remains to be seen. Facebook is like AOL 2.0 with everyone and their dog and their dog's individual ticks having an account on it. Back in the 1990's AOL seemed invincible. Later on, MySpace seemed invincible and look at what happened to it.
Trying this out, I never did like Facebook and deleted my account sometime ago due to privacy concerns, will see how this goes, enjoy our WWF and hope you do also

"Live sections are best"
The chapters where David Sedaris is reading to a love audience are my favorite -- bringing on the laughs that I've come to associate with him -- and why I purchased this book. Having first heard him on This American Life, I was expecting more self-deprecation to offset some of the cynicism. There is a certain arrogance to his writing, but in front of a love audience, it's more apparent that he is also poking fun at himself. In-studio, though, he comes off as arrogant and superior.
I would prefer an all-live version vs a mix of in-studio and live. His live work sometimes has me laughing so hard tears run down my face. Many of the in-studio chapters of this book, though, just make him seem like a jerk.
I love his dry sense of humor and these stories are as funny ans anything that Ron White can come up with. A little nostalgic, but always funny. Highly recommended for those with a little twisted sense of humor.
"David Sedaris is always amusing"
I think the thing that made it the most enjoyable was that David read the book. There's something extra that comes through when a writer is the one reading his own material. Especially Sedaris, who is used to reading/speaking in front of crowds.
I would pick David's younger brother. I think he was the best because of the huge chasm there is between he and David personality wise
David's sleep over when the other neighborhood boys
If you like David Sedaris, get this. If you like lighthearted but smart story telling, get this.
"Funny stories, terrible sound"
The sound is very tinny and poor quality.
The reading was a bit flat compared to his other readings.
Not really applicable
"Why is he so bored?"
Other reviews and recommendations from friends said David Sedaris was "laugh out loud" funny. I must disagree. I do think the subject matter discussed in the book was at least mildly amusing, but David Sedaris as the reader completely killed it for me. He sounds bored with himself, and totally not entertained. I think I probably would have enjoyed this book more had I read it to myself, but as an audiobook, I would never recommend it to a friend. The only parts that he came alive for were when he described and impersonated his brother, which was only a very short portion of the book. I won't be downloading any more David Sedaris books...wishing I had my credit back!
Love to write, love to read, love a great story
"Laughed so hard I had to pull over"
David Sedaris is hilarious
no comparison Mr. Sedaris
His sense of humor and timing is priceless
Laughed out loud several times
I'm a high school English teacher, partner, mom, daughter, sister, and adventurer.
"A great David Sedaris book"
The humorous anecdotes.
Many of the unexpected details that make the stories come to life.
Struggling to find himself.
"whining narrator"
Interesting stories shared about home life.
Change the narrator. His voice annoyed me after a while. He sounded like he was whining, which was not enjoyable to hear.
Susan Elizabeth Phillips is my go to for fun. Harry Potter - just because. Loved the Magic of Tidying Up and Shakespeare
"Laughing Out Loud Alone in the Dark!"
The cynical humor Sedaris brings to everyday life...
The Rooster! Sedaris' brother Paul is just hilarious as seen through the author's eyes.
His voice is perfect because it is him! The hint of sarcasm is fabulous.
The whole thing moved me to roll on the floor hugging my gut laughing
If you need a good belly laugh Sedaris is for you

Congratulations to the NBC 25 Student Athletes of the Month. Our female Student Athlete of the Month is Bethany Garnand, a senior at Smithsburg high school.
"School comes first, I've always been taught that since I was little," she says. "So even if it means staying up until two in the morning to study for AP Bio, that's what you have to do, so that's what happens."
Off the field
"I've always been interested in the medical field. My grandmother is a nurse, and I like biology, so I'm planning to major in biology and hopefully go to med school."
Our male Student Athlete of the Month is Mountain Ridge senior Cody Felker. Cody is a three-year letter winner for the Miners, and has been a starter since his sophomore year.
"School comes first, so I get that done first, then practice, then outside I guess," says Cody "You've got to get your homework done... Then practice.
Cody maintains a 4.0 G.P.A, is a member of the National Honor Society, is a Maryland Distinguished Scholar, and earned a "Minds in Motion" award in 2007. He's planning to attend
"Ever since I was little I've been outdoors, so I figure if I can get a job doing something I like, I should do it, so if I can get into wildlife and fisheries, maybe DNR."
Congratulations to Bethany Garnand, and Cody Felker, The NBC 25 Student Athletes of the Month.

GSP Kickin' It on the Beach; the Iceman's First Acting Role
I've always said that broken English is the world's universal language. So while I would need a translator to understand what the hell this Brazilian interviewer is saying, him and Georges St. Pierre understand each other perfectly — and the multi-lingual "Rush" also shows off some of the Portuguese he's been learning. Impressive! In this Sherdog viddy, GSP talks about his upcoming matchup with Jon Fitch, but doesn't want to reveal his strategy for beating him, which is understandable. Anybody think Fitch has a chance in this one?

The Rawalpindi Express
Born on August 13 in Rawalpindi in 1975, and the rightful inheritor of a proud fast bowling legacy, his initiation into Test cricket was characteristically eye-catching, when he bowled Rahul Dravid and Sachin Tendulkar off successive yorkers in the Asian Test Championship.
A successful World Cup in England followed, but it was soon clear that Akhtar's enduring claim to fame would, unfortunately and eventually, rest on the manifestations of his colorful personality.
It wasn't just blinding pace and an infinitely long run-up that made Shoaib Akhtar stand out. In an international career that spanned 14 years and was often interrupted by bans, petty squabbles and run-ins with authority, Akhtar mostly flattered to deceive – except in constantly outdoing himself in the controversies department.
His evolution into a wisened quick, with a deceptively dangerous slower ball, coincided with Pakistan's defeat of England in their home Test series in 2005-06.
But the force of internal workings stole the show again: allegations of an unlawful action and ball-tampering, whispers of exchanging blows with a teammate, grave injuries, irreconcilable issues with Pakistan's board and, finally, charges of doping brought to closure the career of one of cricket's most enigmatic servants.

Google Glass Can Take Pics With A Wink, Microsoft Won't Get A New CEO Until 2014
Welcome to 60 Sec Tech - one minute on what you need to know in technology.
Google has announced an important set of updates for their Google Glass headset. The most important change is an official "wink to take photos" mode, which will eliminate the need for a voice command. This will allow Glass users to photograph anything silently and unobtrusively, for better or for worse.
Microsoft has declined to name a CEO to succeed Steve Ballmer, at least until next year. Ballmer has headed the company since 2000, but stated in August that he planned to retire within twelve months. There is no clear frontrunner for the position at this time.
And finally, Nintendo released a trailer for a new WiiU game, tentatively titled "Hyrule Warriors." It's a mashup that has come as a complete surprise: the Zelda world mixed with Dynasty Warriors gameplay. There's no world on an exact release date, but it will be out sometime in 2014.

Managing a VoIP or Unified Communications Rollout
Communications networking experts outline the challenges of IP telephony and provide steps for a successful transition.
Latest News4 Signs of Cloud Security Hacks and How Safe Networks Respond 5 Steps to Selecting the Right Video Wall for Your Central Station MU-MIMO Empowers SMBs to Say Goodbye to Network Congestion and Hello to Faster Wi-Fi Quick Tips for Squashing Meeting Technology Trouble
Latest ResourceBuilding an AV Strategy in the New Era of AV, IT and the Cloud
Kramer shows how its solutions can help build a foundation for a new AV strategy that supports the convergence of IT and migration to the cloud.
Voice/data convergence is well under way. "Essentially the entire market is making the switch to IP telephony or Voice over IP," says Mauro Lollo, co-founder and chief technology officer of the Toronto-based integration firm Unis Lumin Inc. "So, it's no longer exploratory technology."
For organizations on the IP bandwagon, knowing the challenges and paths to success is key.
VoIP Challenges
As a real-time application, voice makes some stringent demands on the network. "VoIP has its complexities," cautions Unis Lumin's Lollo. "It has to be treated with kid gloves. The care and feeding of the system—but also the planning and implementation are exceptionally important to ultimate success."
According to Lisa Pierce of Forrester Research, organizations need to think about the ways in which the VoIP system will connect to the outside world. Specifically, she notes that the majority of VoIP installations today are not connecting to the carrier using a session initiation protocol (SIP) trunk, which is the leading way to carry packetized voice in the larger world.
Most, she explains, are connecting using T1 primary rate interface (PRI) or plain old telephone service (POTS) analog lines. Pierce attributes this to the fact that "not every provider offers SIP trunking," and those that do require that customer premises equipment (CPE) meet the carrier's network specifications. "If the carrier hasn't tested the equipment you're planning to install, it isn't safe to assume that it'll just work because it's SIP-compliant," she says.
Chris Nantes of Toronto-based Nortel agrees that there can be interoperability issues with SIP trunking. "Even different SIP application servers can sometimes have slightly different interpretations of the SIP standards," he says.
Ben Brauer, senior product manager for Response Point, Microsoft Corp.'s small business phone system offering created by a team at Microsoft Research, says that the "flavor" of SIP trunking that Response Point will support is SIPconnect. SIPconnect, promoted by the SIP Forum, is intended to minimize the amount of CPE needed to interface with a carrier's SIP trunk. Brauer says SIPconnect is being installed by carriers now and should be available for use by the second half of this year. Service Pack 1 for Response Point, announced in March by the Redmond, Wash.-based company, will add support for SIPconnect. A summer release is expected.
When planning a VoIP rollout for a customer, VARs and integrators will need to find out what carriers serve their customer's locations, which of those carriers offer SIP trunking, and what CPE is on those carriers' approved lists. "I would say it's part of your due diligence," says Forrester's Pierce. Also, investigate whether the carrier offers service-level agreements on uptime and quality of service (QoS).
8 Steps to Success
Some VoIP deployments have gone off with few hitches, while others have been train wrecks. Why the seemingly random results? Certainly, technical competence in IP telephony is a basic requirement. Beyond that, however, much of the success (or lack thereof) can be attributed to taking the time to find solutions suitable for the organization in question.
- Understand the Your Growth Speed Establish where you want your organization to be in the next 12, 24, or 36 months, advises Sally Stanton of Cisco Systems. "You need to make sure that not only does that initial implementation go well, but that it is the right platform so that, as the business's needs change and grow, the [communications solution] can grow and evolve with the business."
- Establish Goals Why is your organization considering a move to VoIP? Jim Cavanagh, knowledge transfer agent at Atlanta-based The Consultant Registry, says it's one of the first things he asks. "And they often give me that deer-in-the-headlights look that says: 'Are you stupid? This is the future.' They may have heard the buzz about tremendous cost savings," Cavanagh says. However, he adds, "A lot of organizations find out that VoIP may cost a certain percentage more than doing it the old way."
- Educate Yourself Educating yourself is key, especially for smaller businesses without deep IT knowledge available in house. According to Joe Scotto, global director for small business solutions marketing at Avaya, a situation in which education is needed "could be something like softphone usage." A softphone is software used for making calls over the Internet using a computer. "Someone who's familiar with softphones has an expectation of the quality, because they know the call is going over the Internet." Some decision-makers, he adds, may not fully understand that.
- Set Expectations Many people have read about how much money VoIP can save, particularly in toll-bypass. It may be possible to save a lot of money by routing off-site calls across the Internet, but the Internet has no QoS it's best-effort delivery, which can make voice call quality hit or miss. Make sure decision makers are aware of this fact.
Perform Needs Analysis Take inventory of your existing data network(s). Does it make a good host for a converged voice/data network? In most cases, upgrades will be needed. Cisco's Eren Hussein says many organizations have a "mishmash of lots of different networks." In many cases, when these organizations implement a Cisco unified communications or VoIP solution, Hussein says they are "consolidating a lot of that technology into one fabric or network."
An important decision, in Pierce's estimation, is whether to use an on-premise IP PBX or hosted VoIP. Hosted VoIP not only lowers the investment for the customer, but also eliminates compatibility issues between the IP PBX and the carrier, as the carrier is hosting that piece of the puzzle. (You still need to make sure that the individual IP phones you're planning to use are on the carrier's approved list.)
Unis Lumin's Lollo says that "for a lot of very small organizations, a simple hosted VoIP solution might be an option." But he also notes that "hosted VoIP solutions don't necessarily deliver all of the potential features that you could get with an in-house IP PBX." Lollo is referring to not just the basic voice or telephony features, but the ability to integrate with more applications within the environment.
- Planning IP phones need power. Most can be powered by plugging into an electrical outlet, but many support Power over Ethernet (PoE), in which the phones are remotely powered over the network cable from PoE-capable network switches in the wiring closet. PoE makes for a neater installation at the user's desk, but you need to make sure that those switches are PoE-capable. Security needs to be a big part of the planning and design process as well. "VoIP and unified communications, although extremely compelling from a business benefits perspective, create different security challenges than traditional digital systems," says Nortel's Nantes, who also advises that organizations ensure the products they use feature needed security aspects (typically, a multi-layered perspective, with not only telephony, but also platform, access management, and interface levels.
- Design In this phase, the hardware, software, and carrier connections are specified and the implementation laid out. Will it be a phased rollout, site by site? This is also when security measures and equipment are detailed.
- Implementation Training plays a key role in the success of the implementation. The more training you can do in advance of the physical rollout, the better. As Forrester's Pierce says, "Training can make all the difference on user acceptance. And user acceptance can make all the difference on whether the project is accepted or not."
If you've got technical staff properly trained on VoIP, you've spent enough time really engaging with the users in your organization, have planned in depth, and have followed through on the steps outlined here, how can you miss? Well, a VoIP rollout can be an iffy proposition. The key is to take as many steps as possible to tip the odds in your favor.

Josh: It's no secret the Florida offense was the team's weakness throughout the 2012 season. Some might think it was detrimental to the Gators' 2013 campaign that leading receiver Jordan Reed declared for the NFL Draft last weekend.
However, the defense will be crippled by losing defensive tackle Sharrif Floyd to the pros.
He consistently closed running lanes and drew double teams to create opportunities for the rest of the defense.
Reed didn't have the same effect on his teammates with his blocking, which never caught up to the rest of his game, or his receiving. He might have drawn some coverage away from his teammates, but it wasn't enough as the team's second-leading receiver, Quinton Dunbar, had just 36 catches.
Adam: Dude, Josh. C'mon, man. Yes, Sharrif Floyd dominated on the defensive line and looked like the scariest person on the field — sorry, Dominique Easley. You don't mess with No. 73. But the Gators have defensive talent coming back.
Dante Fowler Jr. and Jonathan Bullard had impressive freshman seasons, which earned them both All-Southeastern Conference honors. A healthy Ronald Powell, the return of Easley and those two freshmen will make up a solid Florida defensive line next season.
The real loss comes at tight end with Reed. He led the No. 118 pass offense in receiving yards and receptions.
Florida heads into the offseason with unproven playmaking ability on the outside reminiscent of your ability to pick up girls during a night out in Gainesville. It isn't there.
Josh: Florida's incoming recruits soften the blow of Reed's departure. After Monday's commitment from Rivals.com's No. 5 wide receiver, Demarcus Robinson, the Gators now have five receivers in the fold for the class of 2013.
Between them and returning tight ends Kent Taylor and Colin Thompson, it's not much of a stretch to assume Florida can get enough production out of them to rank at least 118th in passing offense again.
We do agree on one thing, though: Fowler and Bullard showed promise this season. But they, along with Easley, play primarily on the outside. Floyd's 13 tackles for a loss this season were 7.5 more than any returning interior lineman.
Losing that much production, the Gators could very well end up more lost on defense next year than you were on Bourbon Street.
Adam: I was not lost. I knew exactly where I was going. Florida got away with lacking a consistent passing attack in every game except two — Georgia and Louisville.
Against Georgia, linebacker Jarvis Jones had a full serving of gator tail for breakfast, lunch and dinner. In the Sugar Bowl, the Gators were too slow against the Cardinals.
The defense let the team down for the first time all season, and yet Floyd had two sacks and a blocked kick. Reed, dealing with pain in his left knee, caught one pass for 7 yards.
It's unreasonable to think the Gators defense can bail out the offense consistently. They need help every now and then.
The defense's lone pass-catching help is gone with Reed going pro. Reed caught 28.9 percent of Jeff Driskel's completions this past season, and if you want to play the "leaving game," Florida loses four of its top six pass catchers.
You honestly think an offense ranked 104th will have an easier job replacing its top weapon in the passing game than the fifth-ranked defense with more talent returning replacing its top defensive tackle? In other words, 1+1=2, Josh.
Josh: You might not have been lost, but your 4 a.m. text messages to me sounded like a little boy who had lost track of his mommy at the mall. The "leaving game" certainly does apply to both sides of the ball.
In Debose and Dunbar, you mentioned two returning pass catchers who have done something of significance. The situation is similar at defensive tackle with Damien Jacobs and Leon Orr being the only two returning players with any experience. We saw flashes from each, but neither has proven they can contribute on a consistent basis.
It's easier to make an impact as a freshman from the wide receiver position than it is from defensive tackle. That's why I'm banking on one of the young guys to step up. The physical transition from high school is tougher to make when playing right on the line of scrimmage. That's why Floyd's absence will be felt in 2013.
Adam: You can't be serious about Debose and Dunbar. What games have you been watching? You must be on Facebook too much in the press box, and quite frankly, you are diverting attention from the question at hand: Who will the Gators miss more — Reed or Floyd?
Florida won 11 games in spite of an anemic passing attack. Reed, the lone bright spot, is gone.
The tackles for loss, sacks and blocked kicks from Floyd can be substituted by a number of defensive playmakers on the current roster. Tell me who can emerge as a vertical threat to replace Reed? Without him, banking on this offense to stretch the field is quite a stretch.

As more parents discover the advantages of using a running stroller with their kids, the more important it is to understand the best safety practices to avoid unwanted accidents. You do not just have to look after yourself, but you are also pushing around a defenseless little angel in your stroller. These are wonderful pieces of equipment that can really bring the family together in a healthy, active, and fun way. You can spend hours trying to find the best jogging stroller, but knowing how to use it properly is just as important. Below are just some of the ways that you can lower the risks involved with using a running stroller on the road.
Anticipate Your Route
Ideally, having a desolate road to run on would be the safest option. But since you share the road with other vehicles it is vital to always be alert of your surroundings. If you run on a sidewalk you must always look ahead and make sure that you will not encounter any pedestrians. If you are on the road you will want to run against traffic so that you can see what is coming your direction. You must exercise the same precautions as regular pedestrians when crossing the street or at busy intersections. Try to avoid congested roads, at least during the busiest time of the day. Your biggest challenge while using a running stroller is to keep an eye on what's ahead of you and try to anticipate.
Avoid Distractions
While it may be part of your normal workout routine to listen to an mp3 player and use your headsets, these will prevent you from possibly hearing sirens, cars, pets, and pedestrians that may be near your path.
Using A Stroller With Brakes
When you are shopping for a jogging stroller a key component that you should make sure it has is some sort of hand brakes. You always want to be in control and you need to be able to stop the stroller as fast as possible. While there are some that come with a brake that you can operate with your foot, these are not ideal and as readily accessible as having a brake on your handle bars.
Swivel Front Wheel
If you like to get the most out of your stroller and run at a fast pace having a swivel front wheel that can lock in place is also another safety feature you will want. When locked in place the front wheel is more stable at faster speeds and is easier to keep in a straight line. When you are going fast the last thing that you need is a stroller that wants to stray off course are have the front wheel start to wobble. At slower speeds you can unlock the wheel and this will increase your ability to safely maneuver the stroller around tight corners.
Use A Tether
This is another feature that most high performance jogging strollers come with. It keeps the runner tied to the stroller, usually with a wrist band. One of the scariest things to have happen when transporting your child is to have a runaway stroller. If you should trip and fall, using a tether means that the stroller will not get away from you completely.
Hilly Terrain
If you are at the bottom of a hill and are not sure if you will be able to make it completely to the top, then it is probably a good idea to forgo it. You do not want to get half way up and then start to lose strength and control. The same goes for extreme downhill routes as well. You always want to be confident that no matter where you go with your jogger that you will be able to maintain control.
Other Safety Tips
The above are just some of the basic safety precautions for being on the road but there are some other measures that you can take to make sure that your child is comfortable and further protected while out jogging.
Sun Canopy
The sun can do immeasurable damage to the skin of young children. Finding a running stroller with an easily adjustable canopy can help shield them from dangerous UV rays. Even on cloudy days this is something that you should pay attention to.
Pack Appropriately
Always bring your cellphone for emergencies as well as pack extra diapers, water, milk and other essentials. You never know what will happen and it is always good to be prepared. Finding a stroller with adequate storage will be a huge plus.
Air Filled Tires & Suspension
This is also another component of your jogger that can add superior comfort to the ride. Should you want to go off road and away from smooth concrete surfaces having a stroller with proper tires and independent suspension will help cushion your child from all of the bumps and lumps along the way.
Remember, children are more sensitive to temperature changes than adults. You will not want to go out in the tremendous heat of summer or the chilly weather of winter if you can help it. It is always important to remember as well that you are pushing around extra weight and your running activities will be more strenuous than normal. You will want to make sure not to over exert yourself on those hot summer days and wind up suffering with heat exhaustion.
Run Safely
Using a jogging stroller is a fabulous family activity that can provide a number of healthy benefits. But when dealing with being on the road, it is always important to be fully aware of your surroundings to avoid accidents with both cars and other pedestrians. Hopefully some of these tips will help keep you and your loved ones safer on your next run.

Investors are hoping Wednesday's big market rally marked the end of the recent correction.
The International Monetary Fund said it expects the world economy to grow strongly in the second half of this year, which could be good for stocks worldwide.
But the IMF also warned that the global economy faces threats like the debt crisis in Europe.
America's debt has also continued to grow rapidly -- up $166 billion in one day last week. That's the third-largest jump ever, according to The Washington Times.
Even though the growing debt could hurt the dollar and the value of investments in U.S securities, China said it would not sell off its holdings in U.S. Treasury notes. However, the Chinese said Washington needs to protect the dollar.

what does your regular workout regimen look like?
what does your regular workout regimen look like?
I walk 45 minutes to an hour everyday - or very nearly everyday. I do a little yoga and a little pilates and a little Tae Bo.
1. Love ME no matter what noises are screaming at me, or who is trying to tear me down.
2. Eat to heal
3. Move to live
4. Embrace today
5. Live with intention
6. Respect my body
7. Cultivate joy
8. Find my passion
9. Meditate on peace in my soul
I do Crossfit. I usually work out 2-3 days in a row, then take a day off.
I do yoga twice a week, this class called PiYo twice a week ( a blend of Pilates and yoga), and a weight lifting class twice per week. The extra yoga isn't super strenuous and helps stretch me out and stay flexible
I'm doing 531 (a barbell program). Every other day I do my main lift, generally pretty heavy, and then I do some accessory movements and some bodyweight/skill work. I'm in and out of the gym in under an hour (often 45 minutes), and I like it that way.
On other days I may do some tabatas or sprints, or I might run. I also do other kinds of casual movement such as walking, hiking, biking, dancing--stuff that's active but not a "workout". With the snow here now, I can add shovelling to my list too.

Owly's Journal
I do Crossfit workouts Mondays and Thursdays (and sometimes Saturdays, usually depending on the weather).
I do Olympic weightlifting on Tuesdays, powerlifting on Fridays, and supplemental weight lifting at home on Sundays.
I hike/mountain bike/ski/snowshoe/snowboard for 4-8 hours on the weekend (not strenuous, more like leisurely/conversational with hubby).
On Wednesdays I get a massage!
Max reps military pushups, finish out with the same amount of kneeling pushups.
Max reps squats
Max reps tricep dips
Max reps crossfit/full situps
Other days, I'll do a yoga or Pilates video.
Other days I will focus on core/planks - 1 min plank (or longer!), 20 plank up/downs (10 per side), 20 mountain climbers or knee crunches, 1 min plank.
how do i get started with crossfit??
If you can't afford it or there isn't one near you, click on Start Here and then BrandX Scaled Workouts to get to their forum. They post a workout every day that you can do at home (or most of the exercises at home), with scaling for different degrees of ability.
One of the things I like about Crossfit is the community of people I work out with. I started by doing the BrandX workouts at home, but it's much more motivating to do it with friends and cheer each other on!
Crossfit is amazing when you find the right gym and the right trainers. It can be awful if it's the opposite, from what I've read, which is really too bad.

CLEARWATER, Fla. - The first four words from Ryan Howard on Saturday were fatalistic. Optimism flowed from a cafeteria table at Bright House Field over the next 18 minutes - Howard wants to play 162 games; he believes he can hit 58 home runs again; two healthy knees will push him to conquer lefthanded pitching. But, in the beginning, Howard faced a dozen reporters and sighed.
"Same stuff," he said, "another year."
The questions for Howard, the Phillies' $125 million first baseman, are identical this spring because 2013 was another lost season, like 2012. He preached health and improved conditioning - Howard said he weighs between 240 and 250 pounds, a noticeable reduction - and acted as if a renaissance at age 34 from Achilles tendon and meniscus injuries would not shock the baseball world.

BIG SPRING (AP) - The police chief here has a warning for those trying to get a buzz from a wild plant known as loco weed: The plant is poisonous and sometimes fatal.
Chief Lonnie Smith said four people were hospitalized last week after drinking a brew made from the jimson plant. Two have been discharged, the other two remained at Scenic Mountain Medical Center on Sunday in stable condition.
Smith said even more people may have tried the toxic tea.
"I hope anyone who drank this is aware, if they didn't have an adverse effect how lucky they are, because this is dangerous," Smith told the Big Spring Herald.
The two latest illnesses were reported Saturday. One man was reported to be hallucinating and was taken to the hospital by his mother. The other man was arrested for public intoxication after claiming the brew was his.
"At the police station he began hallucinating, and we transported him to the hospital where he was admitted to (intensive care)," Smith said.
Two other people had been admitted to the hospital last Wednesday, Smith said. All four, whose names were not released, admit to having ingested the poisonous tea.
Larry McLellan, a pharmacist in Big Spring, said jimson is becoming a popular drug with juveniles in Texas.
"The problem with this is that you never know what sort of concentration you're getting, or how potent the drug is," McLellan said.
The herb is ingested through a tea made from leaves or flowers, or other parts of the plant, he said. All these have been found to produce symptoms that include psychoses, coma, seizures and death.
Five years ago, two El Paso boys died in similar circumstances after drinking a tea made from jimson weed. The chemical in jimson weed is so strong it's been known to kill cattle that eat raw leaves and stalks.
This stretch between Midland-Odessa and Sweetwater saw a rash of similar cases two years ago, not only with jimson weed but also with moonflower and morning glory seeds.

Things I liked: Everything! Easy to load, very comfortable grip, good weight, sights and accurate. Great value for the money.
Things I would have changed: Nothing!
4.0 4.0

Things I liked: Everybody who's ever held a CZ pistol knows one thing: it feels right (at least in my experience). The grip pretty much feel like it's made for your hand and only for your hand. It fits just right. And that's the case with this one. It feels just as solid as the actual firearm would, and that with a largely plastic construction. The trigger is pretty good, the double-action pull isn't that long or heavy, but it gets a little snappy before it breaks - but it does so cleanly. The sights are better than I would have expected on something like that, and accuracy is OK.
Things I would have changed: Incorprate a stick magazine. It's pretty annpying to load that thing and with the magazine spring being pretty stiff, it's pretty difficult to ress the follower fully down. I sometimes use the front sight. The thing is too weak! 380 fps sounds just 20 fps shy of 400, but in practics... It's more like a pretty weak excuse of an airgun, performance wise. Yeah, it will pierce soda/beer cans, but the pellets just ricichet off eeverything else. Not usable slide release. That's pretty minor of an issue, but it's pretty annoying - possibly for the first minutes one buys it and tries to use that. You can rack the slide and cock the hammer - and that's pretty much it. A slide release would just be a nice touch, in my opinion
What others should know: It can fire pellets and lead round balls. You just have to single-shot it and use the lightest varieties. Well, using that as a single shot is a pain, but possible; remove the magazine, hold the slide back and carefully insert a pellet through the ejection port. Works most times. But unless it's a really light projectile, it\s going to drop a lot, but it hits harder. Also, never load the damn magazine with lead balls... You're in for a stubborn jam.

Things I liked: Weight. Action. Trigger pull. Accuracy. Rubber grips. Realistic looks. Double and single action. CO2 system and loading. Clip release. Overall feel. BB velocity.
Things I would have changed: Safety is in the right place but very hard to move. Hopefully will loosen up with use. The catch on the loading spring of the BB clip is a little tough to latch, but not terrible.
What others should know: LOVE this gun! I read A LOT of reviews. There weren't a lot on this gun, but most were very complimentary. On things I liked - all of the ones listed above. Weight and action are great. The trigger pull is very realistic in both SA and DA. The SA trigger pull is much lighter and increases accuracy. The rubber grips are wonderful. This gun is a blast to shoot! Can hardly put it down! I think accuracy is great once you get used to the sights which initially seem to always shoot high. At 20 feet in a standing position, I can consistently put about 90% of my shots in a 2 1/2" Gamo target circle. At 30 feet on sandbags, I can get that same level of accuracy. For a BB pistol, I think that's pretty impressive! Did I say I LOVE this gun?? I don't know how many shots I got with the CO2 cartridge, but it seemed like a lot and didn't seem to lose much power until the last couple of shots. But when it quits, it quits! I really think SA & DA are a must have. There is no blow-back action but that means nothing to me. I imagine that that just decreases velocity and wastes CO2 power. I don't miss that at all. I haven't shot at critters yet, only targets, but am terrifically happy with this gun!! I'm on my 2nd CO2 cartridge so I imagine I've already shot over 100 shots. This gun is a lot of fun! It's almost scary how realistic it looks and feels.
Does this pistol cock back?
Does not have blowback.
I just received this pistol. Out of the box it is shooting extremely high. How are the sights adjusted for elevation?
There is no provision for elevation adjustment. That leaves you fairly out of any quick fix. You would need to increase the height of the front sight and as that is built into the slide it would require you to build it up by fastening a properly shaped piece of suitable material to produce the extra height. You might opt to put a laser sight on the rail. but in bright light that may not be visible.
what is that pointed deal in image 6 above this here? I had a .22 rimfire CZ rifle and it was an amazing shooting platform...With a Burris scope, I was hard to beat...too bad my eyes went bluooey!

A Two-stage Information Filtering Based on Rough Decision Rule and Pattern Mining
Information Overload and Mismatch are two fundamental problems affecting the effectiveness of information filtering systems. Even though both term-based and pattern-based approaches have been proposed to address the problems of overload and mismatch, neither of these approaches alone can provide a satisfactory solution to address these problems. This paper presents a novel two-stage information filtering model which combines the merits of term-based and pattern-based approaches to effectively filter sheer volume of information. In particular, the first filtering stage is supported by a novel rough analysis model which efficiently removes a large number of irrelevant documents, thereby addressing the overload problem. The second filtering stage is empowered by a semantically rich pattern taxonomy mining model.

Quality Price Fit Appearance
Quality is great as with all of my other purchases, however, the color is quite dark. In my mind, I had more silver/light grey but these are pretty dark. Other than the color, it was a great buy!(Posted on 6/30/16)
