Nice looking spuds! I always wonder what happens to all the little ones that are grown commercially since the only the largest appear in stores.
I love hummingbirds too. They are the main reason I grow crocosmia, they fight over that flower.
I love hummers - I had scads of them all summer this year. They're almost hypnotic; I could sit and watch them for hours.
Those frittilaries are part of your garden evolution! The ones that did not come back are like the dinosaurs, but left no fossils. I've had so many plants that failed to thrive. Meanwhile, others prosper and proliferate. Some, too well. I think I've tried to grow Crown Imperials in the past and they didn't make it. Added them to a raised bed last year, thinking they would have better drainage and might be a deer repellent. They were nice, but fleeting. I hope to see them in the Spring, they are quite dramatic.
I thought of you and your experiences when I read Chalker-Scott's book. I haven't listened to them, but she also has a podcast. If I can download them, I can listen while driving. I am kind of defensive about organic gardening - as an overall system, I think it's better for everyone than chemical-based gardening - but I understand her take on it and I am not a fundamentalist organic gardener.
Daniel, I planted many different kinds of fritillaries and a season or two, they all disappeared, except two "Crown Imperials".I have them in my "Grotto garden" which isn't a cave or water spring. It is a dark part of my garden where the sun never penetrates, except in this one spot at the edge where the morning sun light touches the ground.
I just looked up "The Informed Gardener" and found an amazing author, scientist, gardener, Linda Chalker-Scott. For an audio of her reading, go to:
I am impressed. A book is coming and a Kindle book by her just arrived. She has a chapter on the Myth of Organic Superiority.
The reviews of her and her books stand out as good sources for the scientific aspect of gardening. I like debunking myths.
She has a degree from WSU as well as others. She and I must have walked the same greenhouses and barns and shoveled manure onto the ground of the WSU President's House.
Randy, you probably know all this information, however, here is a site that defines alternative methods of vole control.
I guess I am going to have to get rid of my lovely mice population with vegetables replacing shrubs. Gardening is a give and take situation. I guess I could create a mice box if I really wanted to watch them. No, I already have enough stuff to watch.
My visiting cat population is down; their families moved away and the other cats in the neighborhood are indoor cats.
Randall, I'm jealous of your sweet potatoes! During my attempt - the plants I ordered baked in the mailbox. Once they recovered -some - slugs had a "eat all you can buffet". So I'm yet to have any. Maybe try again next year....
My 2 persimmon trees - one Asian, one Asian/American hybrid - look very healthy but may be a few years from fruiting. The Saijo Japanese persimmon is 7 feet tall now. Maybe... The Nikita's Gift hybrid is only about 5 feet, but looks very healthy. Persimmons have nice tropical appearing leaves, and great fall color.
Joan, what type of fritillaries have you grown? This year I was happy to have 2 "Crown Imperials" in bloom. Prior attempts were not fruitful. These were in raised bed, might be why they survived. I planted them to repel varmints - quite stinky! Handsome flower, too.
Book review added today to topics, "The Informed Gardener". I liked this book.
Transplanted some young tree starts yesterday. One might be too traumatized to survive, but we'll see. This is the perfect time to plant trees! Main problem - big box store and nursery trees may be root bound from a season in containers. The roots will need to be pruned, unbound, and set free, if that is the case.
Nice sweet potatoes I dug up! This is the first year in many that voles didn't decimate them. Of course, I rotate crops, so perhaps they didn't find them. No frost, by the way. And I dug them in a cold drizzly rain. Miserable and muddy. But that's gardening!
Daniel, the persimmons are ripening. I had to prop up the whole tree. Only one tree out of the 6 I have produced 'simmons. I know four are male, but the other female refused to cooperate.
Yes, Don, I love the progression of your photos. I know Mt. Washington is noted for its record breaking winds. Are you windward or leeward from the Mt.?
Barbara, it's fun to read about your passion for gardening! It still astounds me that nobody I know grows fruits and vegetables in their back yard. I mean, how difficult is it to stick a tomato plant in the ground, or sow a row of carrot seeds, etc.? Show us a photo of your stone work, if possible.
Daniel, your collection of new seeds gives promise of some nice colors, shapes and textures. I have two surviving fritillaries. I look forward to you photos next summer!

Fatima Bay has beautiful, clear blue water, gentle waves, and a soothing view. My favorite thing in the world is to lie in a lounge chair with a book and a drink, listening to the surf and calls of the birds. It feels like a tiny hidden gem among the larger tourist beaches. I could happily stay there for hours.
We love this beach! The water is clear and calmer than a lot of areas when the seas are rough. It also has an area blocked off for little kids to play in very very calm water. The snorkeling is very good by the reef!
We love this area for its beautiful quiet beach. We are never bothered nor pestered and feel safe in the water and on shore. Glad to see the work is being done to preserve the sand and help to keep things healthy.
especially when I have it all to myself. Don't really want to say too much because Akumal Bay is now ruined thanks to the hoards of snorkel tours...
We were here 5 years ago and snorkeled everyday. Both of my children learned to swim at Fatima Bay (thank you salt water. Thank you ocean) We arrived this time to find the unsightly barriers and a good part of the beach washed away. The water was full of sargasso seaweed, which is unsightly and smells as it decays, but...
This bay is very beautiful. The shallow waters are generally calm and peaceful but when the wind is up try any wind sport you like. Many condos on the bay actually have a view to the west so sunsets are spectacular.
Saw occasional ray, and fun to watch fish/ take pictures. My muscles like the ions in the ocean, so great stretching, and safe.
Over many years, a slow outward migration of sand has been taking place. There are many conjectures as to why, but human intervention seems to have reversed the tide (so to speak). A new man-made stone cage breakwater now extends across the bay in front of Omni Hotel.
The shallow water inside the breakwater is sandy, very warm, and wave-free....
Love this place, more needs to be done to save the sand on the beach....but still one of my favs. A great place to walk for exercise or to stroll to watch sunrise and sunset.
The temporary barriers constructed to help hold what little sand that's left seem to be working..but they really destroy the beauty of the bay..it needed to be done as part of the overall Fatima Bay beach restoration project..so it will be nice when they are removed..but it's difficult to know when that may happen..right now it is hard to just...
HI...we will be arriving late on Saturday night...we are traveling with my 83 year mother...will we be able to get a snack before going to bed??? Our plane arrives in Cancun at 7:45 I would image we will not be checked in until after 10:00

Legend Mining
Today Legend Mining, an ASX-listed junior headquartered in Perth, Western Australia, has one of those company-making projects that every junior explorer wants to have on its asset register, and it all started with a cup of coffee between friends. Mark Wilson, Legend's Managing Director, met with one friend, a broker, and another, the promoter behind Legend's Cameroon gold project, now operated by a subsidiary of Legend and Cameroonian company, Camina SA.
"We really developed that from a coffee discussion in May last year, to a site visit to Cameroon with myself and my exploration manager, Derrick Waterfield, in August, a decision to proceed shortly after that, an acquisition agreement with the Cameroon entity," Wilson says, noting that you don't actually see Legend in operation at the project because it is done through Camina.
Reflecting on quite how pivotal that coffee meet turned out to be, TABJ simply had to know more about the project which today looks set to make Legend shareholders very happy within the next 24 months.
Coming to Cameroon
Wilson says that Legend shareholder approval for the acquisition of Camina happened in December 2009. Under the deal, Camina shareholders are paid in Legend shares.
"We flew our first, very extensive, aeromagnetic survey in January/February last year, and off the back of that survey we decided to move to final completion, which was Legend buying 90 per cent of the shares in Camina and paying those Camina shareholders in Legend script," Wilson explains. "The real exploration effort started on February 4 in Cameroon, and within the four months that we've been there we've established an exploration camp from scratch just out of a little village called Eseka."
In doing so Legend enjoys, through Eseka, great proximity to the road and rail infrastructure which links the project directly to the port of Douala; Cameroon's main trading port and well equipped to be of use to a future producing operation.
"Also within that time, we've started to highlight some of the prospectivity of the area around Eseka with the rock chips that we've been releasing. We've made two releases to the market, the most recent of which was just around the middle of May," Wilson says.
It is important to put the Cameroon gold project's size into perspective here. At 100 kilometres long and 30 kilometres wide, Legend has an awful lot of ground to play with; land which Wilson says is by no means an easy-going place to explore.
"We're talking about tropical rainforest, quite rugged and challenging terrain typographically, and it's nearly all soil cover. The challenge for the geologists is a very serious one and I think that's why it's been left undiscovered until we've come upon the opportunity," he says.
"The degree of difficulty associated with it is really quite high. There are no penalties in front of goal just when you need to wrap up the match, it's hard work every inch of the way."
In addition to the gold exploration, Legends aeromagnetic survey [or 'mag'] has picked up potential iron ore targets too. Taking us through the survey map, Wilson explains that the several black elliptical features represent these areas. The survey is central to Legend's geologist's plans for the coming months.
"What our geologists are doing is moving through those target areas, looking for drill targets, assessing them from the mag [survey] and what they see in the geology, and then ranking them from preparation for a drilling programme which we're now confident is going to start in the third quarter this year —some time between July and September," Wilson says.
"It'll be conducted with a man-portable rig, nominally the holes will be of the order of 100 metres deep, and it's a diamond rig so we're getting diamond core out of those holes."
An enviable cash position
In addition to the Cameroon gold project, Legend also has three programmes in WA that the company continues to progress; in the Pilbara, Mount Gibson and Gum Creek. However the Cameroon gold project is definitely the real company focus and this is reflected in Legend's budgeting for development there.
"We've got a war chest of $17 million in our treasury, we're planning to spend that at the rate of three to four million dollars a year in Cameroon, and the point is that if we get onto something, without having to go back to the market, we can very quickly ratchet that three or four million expenditure up to $10 million just to get a resource drill out," Wilson says.
"Then we no longer have a company that's capitalised in tens of millions of dollars, more likely a company capitalised in hundreds of millions of dollars based on current benchmarks." Quite rightly pointing out that Legend's cash position is "the envy of many juniors," Wilson says that other market edges for the company include the size and proximity of the project to infrastructure.
"I always remember somebody telling me that Cecil Rhodes said, 'if you're in Africa, think big.' We've got a big project with great prospectivity for iron ore," he says. "Iron ore is a very, very desirable commodity amongst the growing economies of China and India—everyone talks of China but I don't think they should leave India behind—and like everything in life, it's the combination of a number of things which gives us this opportunity which I think will truly reward our shareholders in the next 24 months."
The focus for Legend today lays on the results of the aeromagnetic survey and targeting work on the Cameroon gold project according to those findings.
"It really comes down to methodically looking at the targets that the geologists are presenting to us, looking and the drilling that we're doing so that we can continually review the ranking—I don't intend to start from the most northern spot and start south, I'm going to be looking for the best ones first if I can," Wilson says.
"The problem is that until you drill a hole, whilst you can have the geological and geophysical theory of what you're going to get, until you get it you don't know what the very nature of exploration is."
Ultimately, Legend's goal is to build a project with as large an itabirite magnetite resource and as large a direct shipping ore resource (DSO) as the company can at its Cameroon project.
"What the market wants and what Legend wants is DSO's, and the only way to find it is to start drilling these targets and understand about the mag [survey] and what it's telling you," Wilson says.
And to date, Legend's execution of the aeromagnetic survey proper, and subsequent reaction and use to its results, looks likely to prove fruitful and making those shareholders very happy indeed. The lesson? If Legend ever asks you to go for a coffee, it could be the best cup you ever have.

The long-term NFL contract we've been waiting on has been finalized as Victor Cruz will reportedly sign a five-year extension with the New York Giants for $43 million. The deal comes on top of his one-year tender for $2.87 million, which he signed in early June.
So now the G-Men have the Cruz locked up through the 2018 season, but nobody is happier than Giants quarterback Eli Manning, who was seen doing cart wheels down Wall Street after the announcement. Ok, not really, but that would have been hilariously awesome.

On Saturday, Xi'an Famous Foods' doors will open on Beadel Street in Greenpoint and with this Facebook coupon diners can get a free burger or order of noodles. 86 Beadel St., Brooklyn
A second Baba Ghanouge has opened on Fulton Street in the Financial District, Midtown Lunch learned. The Tribeca-based falafel shop commandeered the old Popeye's location and serves hummus, labneh, grape leaves, and, of course, baba ganoush at reasonable prices. 143 Fulton St.
On a different Fulton Street, in Brooklyn, French bistro Three Letters opened on Wednesday. Flo Fab calls the offerings "French comfort food, sometimes with a twist," and the menu is indeed quirky, with pork Bourguignon and seitan fricasée. Chef/co-owner Pip Freeman is an alum of Carroll Gardens' The Grocery, and has been chronicling Three Letters' opening on a Tumblr since last May. 930 Fulton St., Brooklyn
Actress Jennifer Esposito will be selling gluten-free, dairy-free, refined-sugar-free, soy-free, peanut-free, allergy-friendly (oh, and organic) baked goods on 10th Street at Jennifer's Way Bakery.

Bought three jackets and some good on beginning of December '12, package was packed only in plastic bag, one item was missing.
They refunded one item correctly, after we see that the jackets are not big enough we call them for a return. They assigned Hermes to take the package back to M&M. Hermes took the goods on 22/12 and until today and some more mails they dont credited the items (after 20 days!).
Now i'm waiting for my credit note and will open an issue at Paypal when not given until the 16 January.
Never i will order there again.

Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) and Ford (NYSE:F) both reported earnings in the past two days. These companies are huge bellwethers for the market. In this article we will answer two questions. What in the earnings report disappointed Apple shareholders? And how did Ford overcome the weak the European economy? We will also preview the earnings for Exxon Mobile (NYSE:XOM) and Skyworks (NASDAQ:SWKS). What should investors be looking for in both earnings reports tomorrow?
Apple reported earnings after the bell yesterday. It reported diluted EPS of $10.09 and revenue of $43.6 billion. This beat estimates but did not impress investors. The company saw strong year over year iPhone and iPad sales. The company sold 85 million iPhones and 42 million iPads. IPad grew 138% year over year in China, a key market for the future of Apple. The iPad mini also saw strong sales.
Apple also announced it will increase its buyback program by $50 billion dollars to $60 billion. This would make it the largest buyback in history. Along with this increase, the company also increased their quarterly dividend from $2.65 to $3.05 per share. Both appeared to be a way to appease investors who are growing increasingly frustrated with Apple's management.
The part that did not impress investors had a lot to do with the guidance given during the conference call. Tim Cook openly acknowledged the company's weakening growth and shrinking margins. On the margins side, management said they expect margins to stay in line with what margins were a few years ago. Apple also said it expects revenues for next quarter to be between $33.5 billion and $35.5 billion. That is compared to $35 billion in 2012.
Another major issue investors were looking to be addressed during the earnings call was that of any new products or services. Tim Cook did hint at "exciting new product categories" and "new hardware, software, and services", nothing concrete was announced. At this point, investors want to see real plans and not just hints.
Overall, Apple had a good quarter but bad guidance. Quite frankly, until Apple comes out with a new revolutionary product, they will suffer. Apple derived its competitive advantage through having cutting edge products and services. Apple has not had a new product category since the iPad. In the meantime, competitors, like Samsung, have been able to catch up. Apple has to prove it can innovate without Steve Jobs. Until then, Apple will just be another tech company.
Ford Motor Co.
Ford Motor Co. released earnings on Wednesday that beat estimates and showed strong growth in emerging markets. Analysts were expecting $0.37 EPS and Ford delivered $0.41 EPS which is an 11.4% upside surprise. Ford also posted profits of $2.1 billion.
Ford has struggled in recent years to overcome the downturn in Europe. In Q1 of 2013, Ford seems to have overcome their European business woes with strong growth in North America and Asia. Ford's retail results were a whole 38% higher year over year in Asia and Africa alone. Revenues and wholesale volume were up 10% overall. In North America, revenues increased 20% and operating margin was at 11%.
Revenue from Europe was down 7%. Ford expects this to turn around in the next few years. If Ford can continue to make up for the losses in Europe with increases in sales and revenue in North America Asia, the company may be a great way to play the automotive recovery.
Earnings Preview
Exxon Mobile
Exxon Mobile is the world's largest company and will report earnings on Thursday. Analysts are expecting around $2.05 EPS with $2.18 EPS being the high estimate. Exxon has beat estimates for the past two quarters and is expected to have another strong quarter. Here's what investors should be looking for:
First, is the oil and natural gas boom in North America still strong? Exxon is expected to benefit nicely from the increase in production of energy sources in North America. Exxon is a highly diversified company and should benefit nicely from the boom in natural gas. And will Exxon still benefit from the price of oil or does management see a weakening in demand for oil.
Second, is Exxon's guidance showing that revenues will continue to grow? If earnings beat the street again, Exxon's PE ratio may prove to be too low to pass up. Currently, Exxon is trading at 11.2x forward earnings with the S&P 500 trading at 17.5x forward earnings. If earnings continue to be lackluster, Exxon may prove to be a good place for investors to store their cash.
Skyworks is a chip maker for, among other companies, Apple. The company will be announcing Q2 earnings on Thursday. The earnings report should reveal how demand is looking for Apple products. Skyworks will not name Apple by name but investors should look out for any news on "one supplier in particular". This will help give a better picture about the demand for Apple's current products.
Also, investors should look at any news on what the effect of the new Qualcomm (NASDAQ:QCOM) chips are having on business. As we highlighted here, Qualcomm is offering new chips that would work with any provider's network. This could make Qualcomm chips more attractive than Skyworks.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours.
Business relationship disclosure: The Oxen Group is a team of analysts. This article was written by Micah Dickson, one of our writers. We did not receive compensation for this article (other than from Seeking Alpha), and we have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.

Moontower: Opposites + AC Lerok
The New Movement-NOLA
Wednesday, April 23, 2014 from 8:00 PM to 9:00 PM (CDT)
Who's Going
San Francisco, California
London, United Kingdom
Florence, Italy
Event Details
Patrick and Mark are dear friends, but their contrary personalities make it difficult for them to tolerate each other for very long. They overcome this obstacle by communicating onstage as the comedy duo Opposites, hiding behind comedic characters and situations in order to convey their true feelings, and improvising an unscripted show along the way. The Opposites Show is your chance to eavesdrop on their conversation and observe the comedy that occurs when conflicting points of view meet.
Patrick and Mark perform The Opposites Show every Wednesday at 8pm at The New Movement in Austin, Texas.
AC Lerok is a 2-man improv/sketch duo composed of two grown men (John Buseman & Rob Gagnon) and they want you to know that both of them are in the show (one man and also another man) and they'll be performing sketch and improv and "it's more than just a one man kind of show."

Magdalen College (www.magdalen.edu)
On Sunday, June 10th the community of St. Mary Health of the Sick Parish of Merrimac, WI gathered at the peaceful grounds of Durward's Glen to celebrate the Solemnity of Corpus Christi.
By Mesely Luis
Magdalen College (www.magdalen.edu)
6/11/2007 (9 years ago)
Published in College & University
Rev. Faustino Ruiz from St. Aloysius Parish in Sauk City celebrated the Mass at the outdoor Holy Family Shrine, which was donated to the Glen in the 1950's by the Frank Blau Family. After Mass, a splendid Procession of the Blessed Sacrament, led by Charles Blau Sr., the Knights of Columbus, and St. Mary Altar Guild, rested at the various altars throughout the Glen. The evening concluded with Benediction in the Chapel and an enjoyable pot-luck dinner at the Glen's dining hall. The Solemnity of Corpus Christi marks a new significance to the history of Durward's Glen because on this day--one year ago--discussions were initiated with Magdalen College about the sale/purchase of the Glen. The Glen's new owner, Magdalen College currently plans to open a retreat center at the Glen on July 1, 2007 and has scheduled a two-week Summer Youth Program for students ages 15-18. The Summer Youth Program is a fun-filled way of preparing tomorrow's Church and society leaders. For more information about the Summer Youth Program or to register, contact the Admissions Office at (toll free) 1877-498-1723 or email: firstname.lastname@example.com.

memcached SASL support
After the initial announcement by Dustin Sallings that the memcached server now has SASL support, (which is a feature in the newly released 1.4.3, announced just today) this past week has also resulted in a flurry of other developments, particularly in the client realm
: A couple weeks ago Dustin added support for SASL in spymemcached (Java) and as of this week, Trond Norbye added SASL support to libmemcached, now making it possible to take advantage of the memcached server's SASL support for your applications that use memcached! So now you probably want to know: "How can I use these new features?". This post will attempt to show you how you can get SASL working with memcached, as well as explain the mechanics of just what SASL is and how it works with memcached to provide authentication that your applications can take advantage of.
What is SASL?
SASL stands for Simple Authentication and Security Layer, which provides you a means of adding authentication support to connection-based protocols, such as the memcached client binary protocol in this case. The way SASL works is that there is a function (API) call that is added to the client that provides a functionality for identifying and authenticating a given user. SASL also provides the means to implement protection throughout the entire connection. Once a user is identified and authenticated, SASL provides a security layer between the client protocol and connection.
How is SASL implemented for memcached?
Until the the binary protocol was added as well as the SASL implementation, memcached had no authentication layer whatsoever. Any client could connect to memcached perform any operation at will. It was up to the memcached user (usually a web developer) to make sure that their network was locked down and that their application was designed securely. Then the binary protocol was added o memcached which made for a more efficient and compact client-server connection. This made it possible to also add SASL support to memcached. With SASL support, functions were added to the server that made is so a client connection was forced to authenticate before the complete connection could continue. This of course required a client that sent the authentication information using SASL. At first, only spymemcached client (java) was support, but as already mentioned in the introduction, libmemcached now also has SASL support. Basically, SASL uses some sort of storage for user credentials-- it can be LDAP or SQL database. In this example, the user credentials are stored in a database file on the server that memcached will be running on. In order for a user to be able to connect to, memcached server won't allow the user to connect unless they provide their credentials, and those credentials must match the user credentials stored in the SASL database. More information on the SASL specifics of the implementation for memcached can be found here.
How do I install SASL with memcached?
Well, the first thing you need to do is get the latest memcached server. One place you'll find this is the memcached github repository or memcached.org, explained in the next step. You also will need a few prerequisites on your server such as sasl development libraries and as well as SASL utilities such as saslpasswd. On Ubuntu, for instance, the packages are installed as:
Not to forget, the usual requirements for memcached: libevent Just search accordingly for your packages according to the OS you are using.
How do I set up SASL memcached?
Now you will need to obtain SASL memcached. The code is now officially released from memcached.org wget http://memcached.googlecode.com/files/memcached-1.4.3.tar.gz tar xvzf memcached-1.4.3.tar.gz Or as always it is available via Github
Now compile and install memcached with SASL enabled:
./configure --enable-sasl
make test
sudo make install
Next, you will set up the SASL database and memcached application configuration file. There are two ways to do this: system-wide or for a specific user.
System-wide SASL database file:
For a system-wide SASL set-up, you will need set up a memcached.conf file to point to the SASL database file which contains the user and password information in
/usr/lib/sasl2/memcached.conf, named per application. An example of this is:
Note: on Ubuntu, this database file is already in existence. If you have to have one created, make sure whatever directory you specify for the location of the sasl database exists prior to running the next command) To add a user to the SASL database file:
As you can see,
-a specifies the application, 'memcached', which needs to match the name you gave the conf file in the previous step 'memcached.conf'. When you run this saslpasswd2 command, you will be prompted for a password and password verification as shown below:
You can verify that the user you created now exists. To do so, run:
You'll see an output such as:
User-specific SASL database file:
The first thing you need to ensure is that you set a very important environment variable,
SASL_CONF_PATH whenever you run memcached. In this example, this path will be set to
Make sure to create whatever directory path you specify! Next, you will set up the memcached.conf file for SASL (named per application). In this example, the contents are:
Next you will have to create the database file that you just specified in the previous step in your memcached.conf file.
Notice that the -a flag specifies the name of the application memcached, which must match to the name of the config file you specified in the previous example above, memcached.conf. Also notice that this differs from the system-wide example because you have to specify the SASL database file in this example with the -f flag. When you run saslpasswd2, you will be prompted to enter the password and password verification, as shown in the example below:
Now to run sasldblistusers2 to verify that you in fact added the user. As with saslpasswd2, you will have to specify the SASL database file
Running SASL-enabled memcached
Using either a system-wide sasl database file or user-level SASL database file, you will need to start memcached with the appropriate flags. When memcached runs with SASL enabled, the binary protocol is used, text protocol turned off. In this example, a user-level SASL database file is used. As the user 'patg', the following was done:
Now to use memcached, you will need a SASL-enabled client, which as announced in this post, spymemcached (Java) and libmemcached support now. For simplicity (at least for me!) I hacked up one of the tests that come with memcached, binary-sasl.t, and renamed it patg.t (Reminds me I need to add SASL support to Cache::Memcached!). I also had to export an environment variable that the test suite code uses to state that you use an existing running memcached server:
Then I ran my test:
Of interest and worth pointing out, notice the list_mechs test. This test lists what your SASL authentication mechanisms your server isconfigured for. What is of interest to me here is that I see my running server authenticating, since I started the test with -vvv. A failed authentication:
A successful authentication:
A successful GET using authentication:
The server is working! Now to try out SASL memcached using libmemcached with SASL support.
Installing libmemcached
The first thing to install libmemcached with Trond's new SASL functionality is to clone his tree from Launchpad. You will need the bazaar revision control system for this. For Ubuntu, it is:
Next, clone the tree:
This installs libmemcached. Now, how do you use it? Well, you will have to write programs to utilize it. For my enjoyment, I wrote a simple C program that uses the information Trond provided on his post. I called it sasl_test.c which you can find on Northscale's downloads. The crux of what it contains is shown below. I have a main function that contains these important lines:
memcached_st *memc = memcached_create(NULL); /* set the sasl callbacks for sasl auth */ memcached_set_sasl_callbacks(memc, sasl_callbacks); memcached_server_st *servers = memcached_servers_parse(servers_list); memcached_server_push(memc, servers); memcached_server_list_free(servers);
/* you have to use binary protocol to use SASL */ memcached_behavior_set(memc, MEMCACHED_BEHAVIOR_BINARY_PROTOCOL, 1);
/* set a value */ rc= memcached_set(memc, key, keylen, value, vallen, 0, 0); if (rc == MEMCACHED_SUCCESS) printf("setting key %s value %s\n", key, value); assert(rc == MEMCACHED_SUCCESS);
/* get a value */ retval= memcached_get(memc, key, keylen, &retlen, (uint32_t)0, &rc); if (rc == MEMCACHED_SUCCESS) printf("fetched key %s value %s\n", key, retval); assert(rc == MEMCACHED_SUCCESS);
/* free the connection */ memcached_free(memc); sasl_done();
Then, per Trond's instructions (lifted from his page), added callbacks, which I declare in another file I have sasl_test.h
static sasl_callback_t sasl_callbacks[] = {{ SASL_CB_USER, &get_username, NULL}, { SASL_CB_AUTHNAME, &get_username, NULL}, { SASL_CB_PASS, &get_password, NULL}, { SASL_CB_LIST_END, NULL, NULL}};
Then I defined these in callbacks sasl_test.c (notice the password is set according to what was added to the sasl db file):
static int get_username(void *context, int id, const char **result, unsigned int *len){ if (!result || (id != SASL_CB_USER && id != SASL_CB_AUTHNAME)) { return SASL_BADPARAM; }
*result= username; if (len) { *len= (username == NULL) ? 0 : (unsigned int)strlen(username); }
return SASL_OK;}
static int get_password(sasl_conn_t *conn, void *context, int id, sasl_secret_t **psecret){ static sasl_secret_t* x;
if (!conn || ! psecret || id != SASL_CB_PASS) { return SASL_BADPARAM; }
if (passwd == NULL) { *psecret = NULL; return SASL_OK; } size_t len = strlen(passwd); x = realloc(x, sizeof(sasl_secret_t) + len); if (!x) { return SASL_NOMEM; }
x->len = len; strcpy((void *)x->data, passwd);
*psecret = x; return SASL_OK;}
I compile this with the following command:
Then I can run the test!
If I observe my SASL-enabled memcached server, I see that SASL authentication works. Connection:
Set, authenticated:
Get, authenticated:
And it works! Now I can modify other libmemcached-based programs to use SASL. Of course, you could also use spymemcached for using SASL as well.
With this post, you should come away having a better understandingof what SASL is, and how you can use it with memcached. You should be fully able to now obtain, compile and install both the memcached server as well as the client, libmemcached with SASL enabled, as well as be able to start writing memcached applications that use libmemcached to use SASL. Have fun!

Big 5 fills void in Canon City
CANON CITY —With few options for athletic shoes and sporting goods, Canon City residents are welcoming a new Big 5 Sporting Goods store with open arms.
The newly constructed store at 3215 U.S. 50 opened Thursday. It offers 10,000 square feet of products from running shoes and fishing poles to guns and remote control helicopters.
The company decided it was cost-effective to open the store after a zip code survey determined the Pueblo Big 5 store served plenty of Fremont County customers, store manager Liz Hawk said.
Canon City customers can now find their favorite athletic shoes and hunting equipment without leaving town.
"We have a little bit of everything: camping, hunting, fishing supplies, fitness apparel, sporting equipment for kids sports like baseball and soccer," Hawk said. "We've got football accessories, tennis stuff, skateboards, golf supplies."
From winter sledding to summer rafting, the store has the seasons covered.
There are hats, shirts and other fan gear from the Denver Broncos and other Colorado sports teams.
"We have everything priced for the middle class market but there is some upper end footwear and clothing," Hawk said.
Just in time for the holidays, the store also offers children's toys like remote control cars and helicopters. After the first of the year, hunting and firearms licenses also will be available.
Hours are 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Saturday and 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sunday. The store's telephone number is 719-275-3136.

Oil prices have remained well above $100/barrel for most of this quarter and geopolitical fears may drive them much, much higher. As I've discussed in a previous article, the larger U.S. oil companies are not the best way to exploit soaring oil prices. The last time prices spiked above $100, Congress generated multiple proposals for "windfall profits" taxes that targeted "major integrated oil companies," which the Joint Committee on Taxation defines as follows:
Major integrated oil companies are a subset of integrated oil companies that (1) have average daily worldwide production exceeding 500,000 barrels per year, (2) had gross receipts in excess of $1 billion in 2005, and (3) own at least a 15 percent interest in a refinery that produces more than 75,000 barrels of oil per year.
In short, it means Exxon (NYSE:XOM), Chevron (NYSE:CVX), and Conoco (NYSE:COP). A few larger companies like Anadarko (NYSE:APC) and Devon (NYSE:DVN) might escape because they don't own refineries. The windfall profits taxes were previously shot down by Republicans in Congress and the Republican White House. This time around, they have a much better chance of passing, particularly since President Obama made taxing oil companies a big point in his campaigns.
As a reminder, here's what happened to Chevron's stock after Carter's windfall profits tax passed.
Another Way to Invest in Oil
To capitalize on the surge in oil prices, we're looking for companies that are small enough to escape punitive taxes and are attractively priced. One set of companies that we think are particularly cheap are those with very high dividends which were previously thought to be at risk. If investors hate anything, it's a dividend cut; as a result they tend to over-react, both in anticipation and afterwards, to cuts.
At a sufficiently cheap valuation, we actually don't care if a dividend is going to be cut. Recently, the Canadian producer, Penn West (NYSE:PWE) actually rose after cutting its dividend. In any case, with oil soaring past $100, many companies with supposedly risky dividends have now become much safer. Many of these companies hedge future production and can now secure their dividends with higher futures prices.
My favorite metric to screen for cheap oil companies is EV/BOEPD/Netback, which I discuss here. This metric is more useful than the basic EV/BOEPD number, because it also factors in the netback (how much the company actually makes per barrel). There's a bunch of Canadian oil companies that trade as low as $40,000/BOEPD. But they're no bargains because most of that BOEPD is natural gas, and their netbacks are only $20/BOEPD.
Running a screen on EV/BOEPD/Netback and dividend yields over 10%, I turn up the following companies.
|Eagle Energy Trust (ENYTF.PK)
|Lightstream (OTC:LSTMF)
|Mart Resources (OTCPK:MAUXF)
I have discussed Eagle Energy Trust in a previous article. Unlike most Canadian oil companies, Eagle's production is entirely within the U.S.; much of it fetches prices that are actually higher than WTI. The company has previously stated that its dividend is sustainable with $90 WTI oil, which gives it an 83% adjusted payout ratio. Going into the year with only half its production hedged and current prices averaging over $100, we don't see any risk to the 13% monthly yield in the near future.
Lightstream (formerly known as Petrobakken) is a Canadian producer which has been the subject of dividend cut rumors for years. Yet it continues to pay out month after month. With the payout ratio at 68% earlier this year when oil prices were much lower, we don't see much risk with oil above $100.
Mart Resources is a high-risk, high-return play, with all of its production being in Nigeria. Despite rumors about dividend cuts, the company has announced another dividend and will go ex-dividend on September 16. Other Seeking Alpha authors have written excellent articles on the company, for example here. I will provide an updated article on the company in the near future.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, but may initiate a long position in OTCPK:MAUXF, OTC:LSTMF, ENYTF.PK over the next 72 hours. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from Seeking Alpha). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article. I am not a registered investment adviser and do not provide investment advice. Please consult an investment professional before investing and don't pay attention to random people on the Internet.

Amanda Visell as she jumped in and created her own take on a classic Hello Kitty character "Badtz Maru"! This Kidrobot x Sanrio produced figure stands at 6" tall and will waddle itself into your hearts, or in Hello Kitties example... into this penguins belly starting on January 13th for only $39.95! I really dig how Amanda took this character and put her own spin on it! Also to mention... just like Junko's signing at KRSF, Amanda will be on hand at KRLA on January 13 with a signing and release of this new figure from 6:00-8:00pm!
